Adds a cacheGroups entry that consolidates all extracted CSS back into app.css, so HtmlWebpackPlugin's injected link tag resolves correctly. Without it, splitChunks moves the CSS to a numbered chunk, leaving app.css empty and causing a 404 on every dev server reload. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Description
When
shell/style.tswas introduced in the CSS cascade layers commit, Paragon, shell, and brand CSS started being processed throughMiniCssExtractPluginas separate module imports rather than inlined via SCSS@use. This gives HtmlWebpackPlugin a CSS asset to link for theappentry - butsplitChunks: { chunks: 'all' }moves the content to a numbered chunk, leavingapp.cssempty. HtmlWebpackPlugin injects the<link href="/app.css">tag regardless, resulting in a 404 on every dev server reload.The fix adds a
cacheGroupsentry that consolidates all extracted CSS back intoapp.css, preventing the split. JS chunking is unaffected. The production build config is unchanged.LLM usage notice
