 ## 2024-07-13 - CLI 출력의 영문법적 복수형 및 에러 메시지 힌트 개선
 **Learning:** CLI 출력에서 `file(s)`, `issue(s)`, `rule(s) excluded`와 같이 괄호를 사용한 복수형 표기법은 가독성을 떨어뜨리고 투박한(developer-centric) 느낌을 줍니다. 또한, 에러 발생 시 단순 예외 내용만 출력하는 것보다 즉시 실행 가능한 해결책(Hint)을 함께 제공하는 것이 CLI 사용자 경험(DX) 향상에 매우 효과적입니다.
 **Action:** 조건부 f-string(예: `s_suffix = "s" if count != 1 else ""`)을 활용하여 동적으로 정확한 복수형 단어(file/files)를 출력하도록 개선하고, 예외 발생 로직에는 항상 `💡 Hint:`를 포함하여 후속 액션을 안내하도록 표준화해야 합니다. (단, Python 3.12 환경의 `black` 포매터 호환성을 위해 백슬래시가 포함된 중첩 f-string 사용을 피하고 변수 추출을 권장합니다.)

+## 2024-05-18 - Global Search Focus Shortcut and Empty State CTA
+**Learning:** Users often navigate complex dashboards primarily with the keyboard. Providing a global shortcut (`/`) to focus the search bar, alongside a visual hint in the placeholder, significantly improves navigability. Furthermore, users frequently encounter the "empty state" when loading the dashboard for the first time; instead of making them search the header for a small upload input, providing a prominent call-to-action button directly in the empty state greatly reduces friction.
+**Action:** When building dashboard or list views, always include a global shortcut (like `/`) to focus the primary search/filter input, and ensure empty states always have a clear, actionable CTA that allows users to resolve the empty state directly from where they are looking.
