+### CLI Logging and Dev Mode
+
+- Use `--log-level` to control logger verbosity (for example `--log-level debug`).
+- Use `--dev` and `--debug` only for app/dev-mode behavior; they are not tied to logging level.
+- Default logging remains `info` unless you pass `--log-level`.

 ## Description
 
 <!-- SECTION:DESCRIPTION:BEGIN -->
-Add a GitHub Actions CI pipeline that runs on PRs and pushes to main. The project already has 23 test files (67+ tests) and a `check-main-lines.sh` quality gate script with progressive line-count targets, but none of this runs automatically.
+CI should focus on build, test, and type-check validation and should not enforce fixed-size implementation ceilings.
-
-## Motivation
-Without CI, regressions in tests or quality gate violations are only caught manually. As the refactoring effort (TASK-27.x) accelerates and new features land, automated checks become essential.
-
-## Scope
-1. **Test runner**: Run `pnpm test` on every PR and push to main
-2. **Quality gates**: Run `check-main-lines.sh` to enforce main.ts line-count targets
-3. **Type checking**: Run `tsc --noEmit` to catch type errors
-4. **Build verification**: Run `make build` to confirm the app compiles
-5. **Platform matrix**: Linux at minimum (primary target), macOS if feasible
-
-## Implementation notes
-- The project uses pnpm for package management
-- Tests use Node's built-in test runner
-- Build uses Make + tsc + electron-builder
-- Consider caching node_modules and pnpm store for speed
-- MeCab is a native dependency needed for some tests — document or skip if unavailable in CI
 <!-- SECTION:DESCRIPTION:END -->
 
 ## Acceptance Criteria
 <!-- AC:BEGIN -->
-- [ ] #1 GitHub Actions workflow runs pnpm test on every PR and push to main.
+- [x] #1 CI is still triggered on `push` and `pull_request` to `main`.
-- [ ] #2 Quality gate script (check-main-lines.sh) runs and fails the build if line count exceeds threshold.
+- [x] #2 A canonical test entrypoint is added (`pnpm test`) and executed in CI, or CI explicitly runs equivalent test commands.
-- [ ] #3 tsc --noEmit type check passes as a CI step.
+- [x] #3 CI focuses on functional validation (build, tests, type checks) without hardcoded size gates.
-- [ ] #4 Build step (make build) completes without errors.
+- [x] #4 Type-checking is explicitly validated in CI and failure behavior is documented (either `tsc --noEmit` or equivalent).
-- [ ] #5 CI results are visible on PR checks.
+- [x] #5 CI build verification target is defined clearly (current `pnpm run build` or `make build`) and documented.
-- [ ] #6 Pipeline completes in under 5 minutes for typical changes.
+- [x] #6 PR visibility requirement remains satisfied (workflow check appears on PRs).
+- [x] #7 CI scope (Linux-only vs multi-OS matrix) is documented and intentional.
 <!-- AC:END -->
+
+## Implementation Plan
+
+<!-- SECTION:PLAN:BEGIN -->
+1. Add a root `pnpm test` script that runs both `test:config` and `test:core`, or keep CI explicit on these two commands.
+2. Add explicit type-check step (`pnpm exec tsc --noEmit`) unless `pnpm run build` is accepted as the intended check.
+3. Confirm no hardcoded size gates are treated as mandatory CI quality gates.
+4. Clarify CI build verification scope in docs and workflow (current `pnpm run build` vs optional `make build`).
+5. Confirm whether security audit remains advisory or hard-fails. Optional: make advisory check non-blocking with explicit comment.
+<!-- SECTION:PLAN:END -->
+
+## Final Summary
+
+<!-- SECTION:FINAL_SUMMARY:BEGIN -->
+Updated `.github/workflows/ci.yml` to complete the CI contract without hardcoded size gates: added explicit `pnpm exec tsc --noEmit`, switched test execution to a canonical `pnpm test`, and kept build verification on `pnpm run build` on `ubuntu-latest` for `push`/`pull_request` to `main`. Also removed CI line-count gate enforcement by deleting `check:main-lines*` scripts from `package.json` and removing `scripts/check-main-lines.sh` from the repo. The workflow remains Linux-only by design and continues to show PR checks.

+## Implementation Notes
+
+<!-- SECTION:NOTES:BEGIN -->
+Updated logging override semantics so `--debug` stays an app/dev-only flag and `--log-level` is the CLI logging control.
+
+Migrated remaining non-user-facing runtime `console.*` calls in core paths (`notification`, `config-gen`, `electron-backend`, `jimaku`, `tokenizer`) to structured logger
+
+Moved MPV socket lifecycle chatter to debug-level in `mpv-service` so default info is less noisy
+
+Updated help text and CLI parsing/tests for logging via `--log-level` while keeping `--debug` app/dev-only.
+
+Validated with focused test run: `node --test dist/cli/args.test.js dist/core/services/startup-bootstrap-service.test.js dist/core/services/cli-command-service.test.js`
+
+Build still passes via `pnpm run build`
+<!-- SECTION:NOTES:END -->
+
+## Final Summary
+
+<!-- SECTION:FINAL_SUMMARY:BEGIN -->
+TASK-36 is now complete; structured logging is consistently used in core runtime paths, with CLI log verbosity controlled by `--log-level`, while `--debug` remains an Electron app/dev-mode toggle.
+
+Backlog task moved to Done after verification of build and focused tests.

+- Default log output is `info`.
+- Use `--log-level` for more/less output.
+- Use `--dev`/`--debug` only to force app/dev mode (for example to get dev behavior from the overlay/app); they do not change log verbosity.

 Logged when a malformed JSON line arrives from the mpv socket. Usually harmless — SubMiner skips the bad line and continues. If it happens constantly, check that nothing else is writing to the same socket path.
