## Epic 7 — macOS App (Swift/SwiftUI)
**Goal:** A beautiful, native macOS app that feels like it belongs on the platform.

### Story 7.8: Spotlight & Quick Look

As a **macOS user**,
I want CalcPad sheets to be indexed by Spotlight and previewable via Quick Look,
So that I can find and preview my calculations from Finder and Spotlight search without opening the app.

**Acceptance Criteria:**

**Given** a sheet named "Tax Calculations 2026" is saved
**When** the user searches "Tax Calculations" in Spotlight
**Then** the CalcPad sheet appears in the search results
**And** selecting it opens the sheet in CalcPad

**Given** CalcPad sheets are saved as files
**When** the app indexes them using `CSSearchableItem`
**Then** the index includes the sheet title, content keywords, and last-modified date

**Given** the user selects a `.calcpad` file in Finder and presses Space
**When** Quick Look is triggered
**Then** a formatted preview of the sheet is displayed showing the two-column layout (expressions and results)

**Given** a sheet is deleted in CalcPad
**When** the deletion is processed
**Then** the corresponding Spotlight index entry is removed
