Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing /api/export/* path and its ExcelJS usage to understand how section data is represented. Then trace the section field definitions, including custom fields, and define the import flow's completion criteria: CSV/XLSX mapping, preview, confirmation, and successful per-section data creation.

Description

enhancement help wanted

Size: M.

Export is thorough (/api/export/*, ExcelJS) but there is no import path — users can't bring in historical data or migrate from a spreadsheet/Notion.

Scope

Add per-section CSV/XLSX import that maps spreadsheet columns to section fields (built-in and custom field definitions), with a preview/confirm step. Removes a major adoption blocker; mirrors the existing export.
