## Summary This PR merges the completed new-appeal refactor stream (Slices 1–8) into SIPS-Development. This refactor was executed in controlled slices with regression validation at each step. ## Scope Structural and readability improvements only: - XML/form derivation extraction - payload and file helper extraction - side-effect facade introduction - BuildSection and BuildCheckSection decomposition - BuildCheckRow formatter map refactor - nested prop boundary cleanup - start-flow cleanup (CreateCase / AboutYou) ## Behaviour No intended behavioural changes. The following were explicitly preserved: - S78 journey behaviour - payload shapes and field names/ids - HASCAS mapping logic - appellant/agent branching - validation rules and messages - redirect/query parameters (`lpa`, `apt`, `id`) - navigation and side-effect sequencing - EN/CY output parity ## Validation Full regression has been performed on: - start flow (CreateCase / AboutYou) - save and resume flows - file upload handling - check answers rendering - submit/finalisation sequence - confirmation flow - CRM insertion path - EN/CY parity Additional checks: - docsOffline branch behaviour - completion and partial-save email paths - negative-path validation scenarios - lint (warnings baseline unchanged) ## Risk Low: - changes are structural only - no business logic changes - no contract changes ## Rollback Safe rollback via reverting this merge commit. ## Notes This refactor reduces coupling and prepares the new-appeal flow for future appeal-type expansion.

Rules
- Only work on ONE slice at a time
- Do not move to next slice until current is COMPLETE
- Do not combine slices
- Preserve behaviour at all times
Notes
- Save/resume payload shape is sensitive
- File upload logic duplicated in multiple places
- BuildSection is highest risk area
Regression Checklist (Run After Each Slice)

- Save and exit
- Resume saved appeal
- Navigate sections

- View check answers
- Submit appeal (if safe to test)
- View confirmation page
- Verify EN/CY parity
Validation:
