+### Staff resources and Management Templates, 2026-11-01
+
+The owner observed that the non-management (general-staff) portal still lost
+HubSpot's resource-button presentation. After **sanitizing** the decrypted DOM,
+a headed `Management Templates` section identifies the general-staff resource
+view. Valid HTTP(S) resource links in that view receive only the local
+`portal-resource-button` class; `mailto:` and `tel:` retain contact-link
+styling. Neither destination validation nor removed legacy classes/styles,
+scripts, media or HTML attributes are relaxed.
+
+The `Management Templates` unordered list receives a local
+`portal-template-grid` class: two columns at desktop widths (768px+),
+one column on smaller screens. Semantic list order and keyboard tab order
+are retained, with responsive full-width buttons. This is a presentation
+change only: it does not infer or approve employee resource access.
+Synthetic staff/management browser fixtures check the distinction and
+responsive columns. The actual decrypted staff source remains private;
+owner should confirm layout and links in the local preview before merging.

 Scoped typography, spacing, lists, table rules and keyboard focus apply to both
 unlocked streams. Synthetic staff/management fixtures exercise these mappings
