+// old InboundFormModal.tsx continues to be the one InboundsPage renders
+// until the atomic swap at the end of the rewrite (per Core Decision 7 in
+// the architecture spec).
+//
+// Current state: skeleton only. The form holds the full InboundFormValues
+// shape via setFieldsValue on open; validateFields + safeParse + adapter
+// produce the wire payload on submit. Tabs are not yet wired — the modal
+// body shows a WIP placeholder.
