Sticky: screen-by-screen review
What you actually see when you log in, one row per screen, stamped. Captured live on stickymetrics.com, Sep 5, 2026, from the QA account (empty workspace, so pages show their empty states, not your eComHD numbers). The shell problems are the same on your account.
Under normal browsing it randomly returns this Cloudflare error and recovers after a pause. A normal page fires 18 asset requests at once, and that alone trips the limit. One person with a few tabs can take it down. This is the first thing to fix and it is mine this week, not a design question for you.
The five screens you hit most — with the picture
These are the daily surfaces. Look at the picture, overrule my stamp, and write “sucks because” in a few words where I got it wrong.
The first screen after sign-in. With no forecast it shows only "Forecast unavailable. Try again shortly." Nothing says what the page is or what to do. The title reads "Demand" while the tab under it reads "This month."
Clean and clear. But the sample questions hard-code a Man of Men product, "Why is the Black Tie order so big?", shown to every workspace.
Surface design was approved Sep 1. Empty here only because this QA workspace has no data. No redesign needed, needs the ensemble model merged.
The menu says "Purchasing V2" and the page says "Purchasing." with a stray dot. "V2" is an internal name shipped to users. Empty state is one plain line.
Empty state tells the user to run a developer command, with the brand hard-coded. A customer should never see build instructions.
Every other Sticky screen — 11 more, stamped
| Screen | Stamp | What I saw | Used |

| Seasonal /seasonal |
Fix | Errors intermittently, and its empty state says "switch to another company from the account menu", but the account menu has no company switcher. | Occasional |
| Diagnose /diagnose |
Rethink | Only rendered intermittently under load. Purpose unclear without data. | Occasional |

Data | Man of Men only. Needs live ad data, not a redesign. | Weekly |
| Pricing /pricing |

The shell — wraps every screen, so it hurts everywhere
- The left rail is icons only, no labels. You cannot tell what each section is without clicking.
- The top bar carries a dark-mode toggle and a font A/B switch. Both are experiments, shipped live to every user.
- The header title ("Demand") does not match the active tab ("This month"), so you are never sure where you are.
- The account menu has no company switcher, yet empty states tell you to switch companies there.
- Under normal browser load the console intermittently returns Cloudflare "Worker exceeded resource limits" and recovers after a pause. One person with a few tabs can trip it.
Built but not live — sitting in a local copy only
| Screen | Status |
|---|---|
| Catalog / Master SKUs not live | Exists only in an uncommitted local copy, not on the live site or main. Needs landing with renumbered migrations, coordinated with Karl. |
| Purchasing (new) not live | Newer purchasing surface, uncommitted local copy. |
