[2] src/hooks/useTheme.ts:12 - @reviewer2 (6 hours ago)
    Status: Unresolved | Type: Bug

    Code:
    │ 11  useEffect(() => {
    │ 12    const listener = window.matchMedia('...').addEventListener(...);
    │ 13  }, []);

    Comment:
    "This event listener is never cleaned up, which will
    cause a memory leak. Add a cleanup function."

    Suggested fix:
    ```typescript
    useEffect(() => {
      const mql = window.matchMedia('...');
      const handler = (e) => { ... };
      mql.addEventListener('change', handler);
      return () => mql.removeEventListener('change', handler);
    }, []);
    ```
