+# Story 224: Expand work item to full-screen detail view
+
+## User Story
+
+As a user, I want to click on a work item card to expand it into a full-screen detail view, so that I can read the full story/bug content and later access agent logs, test output, and coverage metrics.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] Clicking a work item card in any pipeline stage opens a detail panel that overlays the right sidebar (agents/pipeline area)
+- [ ] The chat panel remains visible and usable while the detail view is open
+- [ ] The detail panel displays the full markdown content of the story or bug file rendered as HTML
+- [ ] A close button or escape key dismisses the detail panel and restores the sidebar
+- [ ] The detail panel shows the story title and current pipeline stage
+- [ ] The detail panel has placeholder sections for future content (agent logs, test output, coverage) that show Coming soon
+- [ ] Works for stories, bugs, and spikes in all pipeline stages
+
+## Out of Scope
+
+- TBD
