## User

the `before:` elements in @frontend/components/HomeOnboardingWizard.tsx stepmarkers don't have a solid background (I can see the dotted `after` borders through the background)

**Result** (success):
```
Success. Updated the following files:
M frontend/components/HomeOnboardingWizard.tsx
```

## Assistant

Adjusted the step marker layering so the `before:` circle sits above the dotted `after` line and blocks it. This keeps the background solid without the dashed line bleeding through.

Changed in `frontend/components/HomeOnboardingWizard.tsx`.

If you want, I can run `bun run lint` to confirm no class issues.
