+# 登录异常居中吐司
+
+## 目标
+
+- 将上一版认证异常 AlertDialog 替换为无交互的屏幕居中吐司。
+- 吐司淡入展示约 2 秒后自动淡出，不遮罩、不拦截手势。
+- 同一时刻只存在一个吐司，新消息替换旧消息。
+
+## 实施步骤
+
+1. 删除 `centered_error_dialog.dart`，新增 `centered_toast.dart`。
+2. 认证页和手机号弹窗异常路径改用 `showCenteredToast`，保留 busy 复位和成功 SnackBar。
+3. 清理不再使用的认证错误标题与确认按钮 l10n 键，重新生成 AppLocalizations。
+4. 更新认证测试为吐司断言，并补单例替换、自动消失测试。
+5. 执行 `dart analyze lib test` 与 `flutter test --no-pub`，回填 PROGRESS 后提交合并。
+
+## 风险 / 待确认
+
+- 吐司使用 root Overlay，认证路由退出时仍会按自身计时器自动清理。
+- 测试必须 pump 超过展示和淡出时长，确保不遗留 Timer 或 OverlayEntry。
+
+## 执行结果
+
+- 已删除 AlertDialog 组件，新增 OverlayEntry 居中吐司。
+- 邮箱和手机号异常改用吐司；busy 复位、成功 SnackBar 和本地内联校验保持不变。
+- 已清理三个不再使用的 l10n 键并重新生成 AppLocalizations。
+- 覆盖单例替换、点击穿透、自动消失、接口异常和本地校验不弹吐司。
+- `dart analyze lib test` 零告警，`flutter test --no-pub` 573 项全过。
+- 未启停服务，未操作真机。
