Reflex-rejection lives at the picking step, not the refusal step + +The composition reflex check runs in preflight, before shape sketching. Its output stays internal — the shape gate carries forward only the chosen alternative, not the rejection process. Anti-reflex procedures upstream of generation catch reflexes not yet cataloged; post-build refusal rules force the model into the next-most-common reflex instead.

Catalog access follows the task's scope + +`teach` and [System Explore](reference/explore-system.md) use the catalog and reference packages as calibration when deriving project identities.

Instructions-only — no exemplars, no project paths, no calibrated numbers + +The skill produces from-scratch using only prose instructions plus the brand profile chain. Pre-loaded exemplar images, project-specific shortIds or file paths, model-generated probability weights (`Font A 60% / Font B 25%`), and specific pixel values in prose (`32–40px padding`) all break the from-scratch premise. If a proposed change needs external state or per-project configuration, the change is wrong-shaped for this skill. + +### 6. Specificity, not novelty + +The revision pass is named *specificity revision*, not *bolder revision*. "Bolder" pushes toward decoration; "more source-specific" pushes toward conviction grounded in the actual material. Cumulative denial across artifacts (avoiding a pattern because it was used before) confuses brand consistency with reflex — brand-consistent work *should* repeat. Only avoid reflexes that are wrong for the brand or source. + +### 7. Two-model design center + +The skill must work for both Claude and Codex (and future models with similar reflex shapes). Claude's reflex is precedent-inheritance — copying whatever sibling artifact exists. Codex's reflex is safe-median picks — cream paper, system-ui, soft shadows, eyebrow-chip mastheads.

Rejected: instance-shaped (model dodges by changing one detail), and absolute bans don't carve out for brands that legitimately live in those aesthetics. The failure is now caught upstream by principle 1 (brand-fidelity lock). +- **Multi-persona generate-then-synthesize at the brand-words step.** Considered for measured diversity gain (Cambridge Design Science multi-persona work). Rejected per principle 7: overlap-rejection competes with brand fidelity — three personas should agree on brand identity moves, not have those rejected as shared reflex. +- **LLM-judged "marker-density" check post-build.** Considered for catching reflex co-occurrence patterns. Rejected: false-positives on legitimate brand-aligned output that uses cataloged moves; false-negatives on unfamiliar combinations. `detect.mjs` stays deterministic regex-based. +- **Verbalized-sampling probability weights.** Considered (Zhang et al. 2025, measured 1.6–2.1× diversity gain). Rejected per principle 5: model-generated weights without calibration are theater. +- **Specific pixel numbers in prose (`32–40px padding`, type ratio `≥ 4x`).** Rejected per principle 5 — bakes one aesthetic into the skill and doesn't travel across registers. + +## Templates + +Templates live at `templates//template.md`.

When several structural or visual directions remain plausible, recommend `explore artifact` within its supported scope. When the direction is established, use the ordinary creation or refinement workflow. Follow that workflow's approval requirements; a small correction does not need a new exploration. + +Evaluate proposed fixes together against the reader's task.

The argument tells the agent what to do. + +**Default (no command, or the first argument is a topic):** `/visualize ` creates a new artifact. The agent picks a template from intent across all of `templates/`, composes against the resolved project or artifact-theme context, writes self-contained HTML. **The flow is gated:** preflight checklist + shape-gate before code, no self-authored briefs. See `reference/create.md`. + +**Named commands:** + +| Category | Command | Argument | What it does | Reference | +|---|---|---|---|---| +| **Build** | `teach` | none | Bootstrap (or refresh) the brand profile.

On hosts without a slash-command form, the skill loads on intent-match from the description above; natural-language is the primary entry there. + +## Routing rules + +1. **No argument**: render the Commands table above as the user-facing menu, grouped by category. Ask what they'd like to do. +2. **First word matches a command**: **load its reference file before doing anything else.** Non-negotiable — the table row + this section is insufficient; the procedure lives in the reference. Everything after the command name is the target. +3. **Natural-language intent**: requests to compare design alternatives load `reference/explore.md`; capturing or reconciling project identity loads `reference/teach.md`. Otherwise load `reference/create.md` for creation or an explicitly requested restyling of an existing artifact. A named theme follows Artifact themes below; it does not require an exploration round. +4. **Relationship-diagram route during creation**: when preflight first identifies a likely relationship diagram, load `reference/diagram.md` and the one tentative non-spatial type reference needed for that figure before presenting the shape gate. For multi-figure artifacts, load one reference for each distinct tentative family: `reference/diagram-flow.md`, `reference/diagram-system.md`, `reference/diagram-sequence.md`, `reference/diagram-state.md`, or `reference/diagram-hierarchy.md`. Spatial figures use `reference/diagram.md` alone. If approval changes a figure's type, load the replacement reference before authoring; do not load unrelated families. +5. **Generated-image route during creation**: when the approved shape requires generated bitmap imagery, load `reference/image-generation.md` before selecting or invoking a route. Use only the active callable inventory or an explicitly selected API adapter. Never infer a route from a key, executable, mount, or model claim, and never retry or fall back after an ambiguous attempt. +6. **Explore scope**: `explore` always loads `reference/explore.md`, which distinguishes artifact treatment from project-system creation or explicit replacement. Comparing treatments for one artifact does not require creating a project design system first. System Explore uses its opt-in authority classification instead of applying the render fallback as an incumbent identity. + +## Hand-off output shape + +After a refine verb (`simplify` / `bolder` / `quieter` / `animate`) finishes its run, summarise to the user in plain markdown. Don't render the summary as a fenced code block — it's conversational output, not machine-readable. Vary phrasing across runs; pick wording per context (engineer reading detector output vs. designer iterating on a brand brief). `polish` has its own output shape — see `reference/polish.md`. + +Every refine run's summary covers four facts: + +- Which verb ran, against which artifact. +- What the verb actually did. Pull the verb-specific content from the per-verb reference's "what to surface" list (focal moment, cuts + audit trail, strategy, what stayed, hero moment, reduced-motion handling — depends on the verb). +- Diff size as a percent of the artifact. +- Which next action makes sense, if any. Polish is the default next step from a successful refine run. + +Variant rules (behaviour, not surface text): + +- **Context source note.** If the run cannot use a persisted `DESIGN.md` / `PRODUCT.md`, mention once which fallback source anchored the work: project instructions, README/docs, generated seed, or Clean defaults. Also nudge the user to run `/visualize teach` so that fallback can become a real brand profile. Clean defaults are the last resort after the Brand profile rules below find no usable project guidance. +- **Diff exceeded the 40% guard.** Stop refinement and report the affected scope. Apply Design judgment to recommend exploration when the structural direction remains unresolved, or a fresh creation pass when it is established. Do not continue into polish. +- **Verb shouldn't have run** (Absolute bans present, no decoration to remove, no focal moment, etc.). Skip the standard run summary entirely. Surface a short refusal that names the reason and routes to the right alternative verb. Each per-verb reference's "When `` is the right verb (and when it isn't)" section enumerates the verb's specific refusal conditions. + +Tone is conversational. Lead with what changed, not with a banner. Don't capitalise words for emphasis. Don't print a ` pass complete ·` header — the summary's content is the proof of completion. + +For `animate` specifically: when the brand declares `motion: none`, a fifth variant applies — see `reference/animate.md`. + +## Absolute bans + +Match-and-refuse. Apply on every command and the default creation flow. These ban specific patterns — not aesthetics, not registers. A brand can declare a font, a hue, or a layout that looks unusual; it cannot redeem any of these patterns by declaring them as identity.

Apply them after the universal bans, especially during no-brand greenfield creation. + +**Codex-specific rules:** + +- **Border plus big shadow:** avoid pairing a 1px border with a large fuzzy drop shadow on the same card or button. Choose a crisp edge or a small elevation cue. +- **Over-rounded containers:** ordinary cards, sections, inputs, and panels should usually stay at 12-16px radius. Larger radii need an explicit brand reason. +- **Decorative stripe backgrounds:** do not use `repeating-linear-gradient(...)` as body or section filler. Use an intentional texture/rule system, or leave the background plain. +- **Crude SVG fallback:** do not draw rough SVG scenes because no real asset is available. Use generated bitmap imagery, a geometric diagram, or no illustration. +- **Compressed display type:** keep display heading letter-spacing ≥ -0.04em and clamp max ≤ 6rem unless the template is a slide/poster register that explicitly needs larger type. +- **Meta-contrast copy:** avoid "X theater", "actually X", and "not just X, it's Y" framing. Say what the artifact literally does. +- **Color judgment:** use `reference/color.md` to assess character, relationships, roles, distribution, and actual pairings. No hue, hue combination, neutral tint, or accent count is a universal taste gate. Preserve approved identity and explicit artifact exceptions. +- **Palette as a substitute for composition:** assign semantic color roles in the shape gate and use them consistently, but do not add accent tracks merely to manufacture visual interest. Neutral surfaces plus one accent are valid when composition, type, density, imagery, or interaction carries the point of view. Revise when the opening has no expressive dimension, not when it has too few hues. + +**Gemini-specific guard:** + +- Do not animate `` elements on hover. If a card needs hover feedback, animate the card's border, background, or action affordance instead. + +**Metadata / TOC guard:** static document context needs explicit labels, not anonymous rounded chips. In document mode, keep metadata close to the title/thesis inside the reading flow; a right rail, split-cover facts column, or standalone metadata panel usually turns context into competing chrome. TOC rails are allowed for genuinely long documents, but they should support navigation rather than dominate the opening. Mobile TOCs must remain navigable lists or deliberate grids, never free-wrapping word clouds. Read `patterns/metadata.md` or `patterns/toc.md` when those structures are part of creation. + +**Table guard:** tables are reading instruments, not hero sections. Keep caption, header, body, row-key, and numeric roles distinct; scope monospace to fixed-width values. Read `patterns/table.md` when the artifact carries dense comparison or evidence. + +**Interactive-state route:** when creation includes functional controls or changes state in place, read `patterns/interactive-states.md`. + +## AI slop test (two altitudes) + +Run both. The second catches what the first misses. + +**First-order**: if someone could guess the template + palette from the topic alone, you've hit the first training-data reflex. Topic stereotypes are prompts to inspect the brief, not color prohibitions: red, purple gradients, or navy-and-gold can fit a specific artifact. Rework unsupported defaults, not approved identity. + +**Second-order**: if someone could guess the aesthetic family from topic-plus-anti-references ("AI workflow tool that's not SaaS-cream → editorial-typographic," "fintech that's not navy-and-gold → terminal-native dark mode"), the second-tier reflex isn't avoided. Currently-saturated families to watch for: editorial-Tufte clone (cream + Georgia + side-margin notes when the topic isn't editorial), brutalist-terminal clone (mono + grid + heavy borders when the topic isn't dev-tool), Swiss-poster clone (uppercase + grotesk + grid when the topic isn't presentation). Rework until both altitudes return "no, you couldn't have guessed." + +## Brand profile + +Every render reads available `DESIGN.md` (visual identity + design tokens) and `PRODUCT.md` (voice, audience, tone) at the project root. `teach` derives custom design tokens for the brand and writes them in `DESIGN.md` as YAML frontmatter (the Google Stitch canonical format: machine-readable tokens) plus a six-section markdown body (Overview / Colors / Typography / Elevation / Components / Do's and Don'ts), with a sidecar `tokens.css` at the project root carrying the CSS-form tokens templates read at render time. Project profiles retain concrete tokens, not a `theme: ` pointer. + +Brand authority is identity-scoped. If the request fixes a named identity but the resolved project profile clearly belongs to another product, do not substitute, relabel, or approximate it. Stop before the shape gate or any artifact edit and request matching authority or explicit permission for an artifact-only override. + +The design systems under `design-systems/` are reference packages with design guidance, tokens, and previews. `teach` and System Explore read them when deriving project identities; artifact creation and exploration can use them as themes under the shared contract below. + +**Fallback when no DESIGN.md exists:** an approved artifact reference supplies the visual baseline where project guidance is absent; do not replace it with a seed or Clean defaults. Otherwise, first read available project instructions (`AGENTS.md`, `CLAUDE.md`, README, docs) for product positioning, visual direction, anti-references, and design principles. If those files contain usable brand/design guidance, treat it as binding brand context while using Clean's token **surface** as the structural floor. Explicit cues in repo guidance override Clean values: named fonts become the artifact font stack, named palette roles become the artifact color tokens, and named anti-references rule out the corresponding fallback register. If the guidance points at concrete token files, stylesheet files, logo components, or design guidelines, read those referenced files and use their values before approximating from prose. Using Clean's token surface means keeping the semantic variable shape, not copying Clean's fonts, monochrome values, or warm/cream defaults. Only run `node $SKILL_DIR/scripts/palette.mjs --from ""` when the project has no usable visual direction at all. When a seed is used, compose the temporary `--primary`, `--background`, `--foreground`, `--accent`, chart, and state tokens from the seed + artifact brief; do not copy Clean's monochrome palette unchanged. Use the script's `derived` block (real contrast numbers, per-hue chroma budgets, light + dark lightness ladders) instead of estimating those values; if the seed's register fights the brief, re-run with `--not ` or `--vary ` and note the veto in the shape gate. After composing, validate with `node $SKILL_DIR/scripts/palette.mjs --check --strict` and fix error findings (exit 2) before render. Nudge `/visualize teach` once per session so repo guidance or the temporary seed can become a real brand profile. + +**Refine verbs on missing persisted brand files:** `simplify` / `bolder` / `quieter` / `animate` / `polish` use the same fallback hierarchy as creation. Project instructions, README/docs, or other already-loaded context can be a valid qualitative brand anchor. Clean defaults are only the anchor when no usable project guidance exists. Whenever a fallback source is used, mention that source once and nudge `/visualize teach` so the fallback can become a real brand profile. + +**Refine verbs on artifacts that carry ≥3 Absolute bans:** `bolder` / `quieter` / `animate` / `polish` refuse and route. State in the run summary: `"REFUSED — N Absolute bans present (listed). The artifact needs structural cleanup before applies. Recommend /visualize simplify first (removes the ban patterns), then re-evaluate."` Simplify accepts ban-carrying input as its core case; the other Refine verbs assume a clean baseline and must not run on ban-heavy artifacts. + +## Artifact themes + +A theme is a reference design system applied to one artifact, not a new stored object or a project-wide adoption. Use the current project system by default. Resolve binding project choices, approved artifact exceptions, and open design dimensions before borrowing from a reference. A named reference or a request to make an artifact more expressive does not silently override binding project choices; clarify conflicts that the request leaves unresolved. Explicit permission to replace visual styling applies only to the named artifact and dimensions. Do not invent constraints where the project is silent. + +Read the selected `design-systems//README.md` when present, then its `DESIGN.md` and `tokens.css`. README is the package entry point; DESIGN owns suitability, identity, and adaptation guidance. Use previews to understand the treatment, not as required layouts. If the user wants alternatives, propose a small relevant shortlist rather than loading the entire catalog. A missing README does not make a package unavailable. + +Apply a named treatment through ordinary creation or revision; compare unresolved treatments through `explore artifact`. Neither requires a new layout or a project profile first. For new content, derive structure from the reader's task and source. For existing artifacts, preserve content, order, assets, and behavior unless those changes were requested. A broad restyling uses `reference/create.md` with that preservation scope, not a narrow refine verb forced past its diff guard. Existing approval gates still apply; an explicit request already covering the proposed changes does not need reconfirmation. + +Translate the reference's hierarchy, spacing, surfaces, and component treatment as well as its palette and type. Keep non-overridden project choices. Embed the resolved tokens, including designed light/dark and OS-dark behavior, in the artifact; do not replace the project's token source. Verify against the resolved artifact context, not the overridden project values. Describe partial borrowing and retained constraints rather than claiming an unchanged reference application. Keep the approved exception and its scope in existing task notes or a short artifact comment so later refinement can preserve it; unexplained styling drift alone is not approval. + +For project-wide capture or direct derivation, use `teach`. To compare new or explicitly requested replacement systems, use `explore system`. Neither route is a prerequisite for artifact themes. + +## Universal laws + +Apply on every command, every template, every prompt. These override contextual taste findings, not non-contextual correctness constraints: + +1. **Resolved context and voice trump contextual taste rules.** A finding that merely conflicts with the approved register is a category error. Context cannot suppress an unskipped Absolute ban, an artifact fossil or placeholder, an accessibility requirement, or an honesty/data-truth failure. Permission to refine an artifact does not authorize changes to the project's brand profile or shared token source. Propose necessary changes to those authorities separately unless the user has already authorized them. +2. **Commands interpret, not regenerate.** Iteration commands return a targeted diff, not a fresh draft. If the diff is >40% of the artifact, the command has misfired. +3. **Ship-blockers and taste-calls are different.** A11y and contrast must be fixed; taste-calls are negotiable. +4. **Severity follows context, including aggregate.** An `info` rule can ship-block in aggregate; an `error` rule can be a taste-call only when it is context-sensitive and the brand whitelists it. The non-contextual constraints in law 1 do not demote. +5. **Don't strip-mine into invisibility.** After a command runs, the artifact should still feel anchored to the resolved context. +6. **The reader is the judge.** Every finding maps to: does this make the reader's job harder, or just satisfy a rule? +7. **Detector output is defect-evidence, never done-evidence.** A clean `detect.mjs` result is not proof the artifact is strong — it's proof the mechanical floor passes. The detector catches what regex can identify; verb work covers everything else. Don't declare done on a clean detector reading. +8. **Rendered mobile beats desktop theory.** A desktop-strong composition that merely stacks on phone can still be worse than a plain document. Judge the first two mobile screens as a finished reading state: heading scale, metadata wraps, TOC placement, card chrome, and body rhythm all have to feel intentional at narrow width. +9. **Metadata should explain itself.** Bare chips such as `display.dev strategy` or `Updated May 29, 2026` force the reader to infer the field. Prefer explicit labels: `Memo type / display.dev strategy`, `Updated / May 29, 2026`, `Input / method, vision, competitor refresh`. For document artifacts, those labels belong near the opening argument, not in a side rail that competes with the body. +10. **Clean is not enough.** An artifact can pass every ban, detector rule, and mobile check and still fail because it has no visual point of view. Boring-but-clean is a failure when the user asked for a visual artifact. The output needs at least one deliberate composition choice that helps the reader understand the content faster or remember it longer. If the strongest honest description of the first viewport is only "clean," "polished," "on-brand," or "easy to read," the composition is unfinished; its strongest quality should describe what this specific artifact helps the reader see. diff --git a/claude/skills/visualize/bin/_import-common.mjs b/claude/skills/visualize/bin/_import-common.mjs new file mode 100755 index 0000000..2344b04 --- /dev/null +++ b/claude/skills/visualize/bin/_import-common.mjs @@ -0,0 +1,390 @@ +#!/usr/bin/env node +// _import-common.mjs — frontmatter and token helpers. +// +// Used by ../scripts/detect.mjs and schema checks for catalog DESIGN.md +// frontmatter parsing.

Step 1 derives the `DESIGN.md` from a Chrome MCP / WebFetch sweep of ``. All four steps run. Most B2B-SaaS and consumer-brand entries land here (Stripe, Airbnb, Notion, Spotify, Cloudflare, etc.). +- **Refresh live-source mode** — the slug exists, has a public live brand site, and is being rewritten to drop third-party prose and capture drift. Step 1 re-derives from the live site. Step 2 (`tokens.css`) re-runs only if Step 1's drift findings warrant it. Step 3 (`preview-template.html`) typically doesn't re-run unless drift is structural (new component vocabulary surfaced). +- **Spec-derived mode** — the slug doesn't exist and has no public live brand site to sample. The system is a register-family invention (`bento`, `blueprint`, `brutalist`, `dithered`, `glassmorphism`, `luxury`, `paper-ink`, `riso`, `sketch`, `terminal`, `whitepaper`, `ide`) or a documented design system whose only public artefact is a spec or portfolio piece (e.g., a Superdesign-style design with no live deployment). Step 1 derives the `DESIGN.md` from spec text + reference imagery + design principles that the dispatcher provides, not from a live site. All four steps run; only Step 1's input set differs. + +Spec-derived mode never has a refresh variant. The "live site changed, our `DESIGN.md` is stale" failure mode doesn't apply when the source is a frozen spec.

Substitute `` and ``. + +#### Goal + +Author a `DESIGN.md` at `visualize/design-systems//DESIGN.md`, derived entirely from live observation of `` (and any other documented first-party brand surfaces you can reach). The output must be your own original prose — not a paraphrase or adaptation of any third-party design-system catalog, blog post, or pre-existing `DESIGN.md` file in this repo. + +#### Constraint: no third-party catalog content + +Your prose must be original — derived from the live brand, not from any catalog that already characterised the brand. + +**You MUST NOT read or open:** +- `visualize/design-systems//DESIGN.md` (in refresh mode, the existing file should be moved aside before dispatch; if it's still at the canonical path, that's a bug — don't open it) +- Any other brand's `DESIGN.md` in this repo as a "reference" — cross-contamination risk +- Any file under `intra-hosting/scratch/visualize/` or similar working-doc folders +- Third-party design-system catalog content for this brand, including mirrors, archives, or web caches + +**You MUST NOT search the web for:** +- ` design system markdown` or similar phrases that would surface third-party imports + +**You MAY use:** +- Chrome MCP tools (`mcp__chrome-devtools__*` preferred) to navigate `` and brand-owned URLs, take screenshots, run `evaluate_script` for `getComputedStyle` sweeps +- `WebFetch` on `` and related first-party brand surfaces (the brand's own docs site, their design-system site if they publish one — `polaris.shopify.com`, `carbondesignsystem.com`, etc.) +- In refresh mode: `visualize/design-systems//tokens.css` and `preview-template.html` — useful as post-authoring cross-checks (not as sources for prose) +- The required-reading sections of `AUTHORING.md` + +If you're uncertain whether a source counts as "third-party catalog content," treat it as off-limits. + +#### Process + +1. **Identify the live brand entry points — sample across surface types, not just marketing.** A single marketing-surface skin is the wrong basis for canonical-canvas decisions. Most brands have multiple surfaces that may pick different polarities; the brand identity is what they ship across all of them, not what the homepage happens to render today. + + Sample across at least three surface types: + + - **Marketing surface**: `https:///` plus the common secondary marketing pages — `/product`, `/pricing`, `/enterprise`, `/customers`, `/about`. + - **Editorial / content surface**: blog, newsroom, careers — these usually render at the brand's "text-first" canvas which often differs from the marketing skin. Cloudflare ships dark marketing + white blog; Stripe ships gradient-mesh marketing + clean white docs; many brands have a similar split. + - **Product / app surface**: dashboard, app shell, console, customer portal. Often the most polarity-aware surface (theme toggle, OS-preference detection). Requires login for most brands — sample as far as the marketing landing for the app (`/dashboard`, `/app`, `/login`) and read CSS files referenced from the landing page if the actual chrome is gated. + - **First-party design system if published**: search for ` design system site:` and equivalent. If the brand publishes documented tokens with both polarities (Cloudflare's Kumo, IBM's Carbon, Shopify's Polaris, Mongo's LeafyGreen, Atlassian's, Spotify's Encore on github), **that takes precedence over the marketing-skin choice**. The marketing site is one render of the brand; the design system is what the brand ships. + + The `canonical-canvas` decision rule: light if the brand ships *only* light surfaces; dark if the brand ships *only* dark surfaces; **both** if the brand ships any mix — even one surface with a different polarity from the marketing site means `both`. Don't declare a brand single-polarity based on the marketing skin alone. + +2. **Load chrome-devtools tools first — required, do not skip.** This is the single most common subagent failure on this step: `mcp__chrome-devtools__*` tools are *deferred* (not in your default context), and `mcp__claude-in-chrome__*` tools may also be deferred but more visible from system reminders. Subagents that skip this load step default to claude-in-chrome and lose persistent screenshots, breaking Step 3's ability to re-read them. + + **Run this exact `ToolSearch` call before any browser navigation:** + + ``` + ToolSearch query="select:mcp__chrome-devtools__navigate_page,mcp__chrome-devtools__emulate,mcp__chrome-devtools__take_screenshot,mcp__chrome-devtools__evaluate_script" + ``` + + Confirm the response loads schemas for all four tools. **Do NOT use `mcp__claude-in-chrome__*` instead** — even if those tools are available in your inventory, they return inline images with no `filePath` persistence, and the catalog requires persistent capture. If `ToolSearch` doesn't surface the chrome-devtools tools (some sandboxes don't ship them), skip the screenshot capture and go directly to the `WebFetch` fallback paragraph below in this step — do not substitute claude-in-chrome. + + Then capture: + + ```sh + mcp__chrome-devtools__emulate colorScheme=light + mcp__chrome-devtools__navigate_page url="https:///" + mcp__chrome-devtools__take_screenshot filePath="temp/brand-refs/-live-light.png" fullPage=true + + mcp__chrome-devtools__emulate colorScheme=dark + mcp__chrome-devtools__navigate_page url="https:///" + mcp__chrome-devtools__take_screenshot filePath="temp/brand-refs/-live-dark.png" fullPage=true + ``` + + Repeat for at least 4 secondary surfaces. + + **If Chrome MCP is blocked** (some brands refuse headless-Chrome traffic), fall back to `WebFetch` on the same URLs. Note in §Known gaps which surfaces are screenshot-deferred. + +3. **DOM-sample for actual values.** `mcp__chrome-devtools__evaluate_script` with `getComputedStyle` over the full set of distinct components — buttons, links, CTAs, pills, badges, headers, footer chips, body text. Convert hex / rgb to OKLCH (vendored culori at `visualize/scripts/vendor/culori.mjs`). + +4. **Author `DESIGN.md`.** Copy `_template/DESIGN.md` and fill each section. Frontmatter, §1 Canonical canvas, §2 Palette, §3 Typography, §4 Component vocabulary, §5 Surface inventory, §6 Notes, §Known gaps. + + **§4 Component vocabulary** is the largest section. Document every distinct component pattern the brand ships — one entry per distinct pattern, not one entry per category. Walk this checklist on each sampled surface: + + - Buttons — primary CTA, secondary, ghost / outline, icon-only, destructive, link-styled. Each variant + each state. + - Cards — content, feature, testimonial, pricing, product. + - Forms — text input, textarea, select, checkbox, radio, switch, slider. Each with focus / error / disabled. + - Navigation — top nav (desktop + mobile), side nav, breadcrumbs, tabs, pagination, mega-menu, footer link blocks. + - Pricing — tier card layouts, comparison table rows, featured-tier treatment, calculator inputs. + - Badges / chips / pills — status, count, category, filter, tag. + - Media — image cards, video embeds, gallery thumbnails, avatar shapes. + - Editorial — blockquote, callout, alert, banner, list styles, code blocks, inline link styles. + - Date / time — date picker (default / selected / range / disabled), time picker, calendar grid. + - Feedback — toast, modal, drawer, popover, tooltip, snackbar. + - Data — table, chart wrapper, stat tile, sparkline, KPI card. + - Brand-specific — anything the brand exposes outside the categories above. Each gets its own entry. + + Target 15-25 entries for a typical brand; B2B SaaS marketing sites often have 25-35; single-product brands may have 12-20. Cite each component's live source (URL + DOM selector). + + **Mark legacy components.** If a component you'd expect isn't on the live site, record it with `status: retired (last seen: )` or `status: not-observed-`. Don't silently omit. + +5. **Expect drift, and record it.** + - Refresh mode: if a value in `tokens.css` doesn't match the live brand, flag it in §2 under "Drift vs `tokens.css`" with live evidence and a reconciliation suggestion. + - New-brand mode: there's no prior `tokens.css`; your `DESIGN.md` becomes the authoritative source for the brand's first `tokens.css`. + +6. **Original-prose self-audit.** Re-read your draft. If a sentence uses a stock phrase that feels too polished (e.g., "the brand's voltage moment"), rewrite in your own voice. + +#### Output + +A `DESIGN.md` at `visualize/design-systems//DESIGN.md`.

Don't search the web for adjacent / related design systems; the inputs the dispatcher provided are the source. + +2. **Skip the live-capture steps** (steps 1-3 of the live-source process). There is no `` to navigate. Don't substitute another design system's live site as a proxy — that contaminates the system you're authoring with a different brand's choices. + +3. **Derive the palette from the spec + imagery.** If the spec declares hex values, use those. If the spec describes the system principally through imagery, sample colours from the reference images (use image-inspection tools or note the values inline). Mark each value with its source: `Live: spec §X` or `Live: reference image temp/refs/-.png — visible element`. Convert hex to OKLCH via vendored culori. + +4. **Derive typography + components similarly.** From the spec when declared, from imagery when not. The §4 Component vocabulary exhaustive expectation still holds — if the spec doesn't enumerate components, the author derives a reasonable vocabulary from the principles (e.g., "Brutalist register implies hard-edged buttons with no hover lift; surface elevation is hairline-only"). + +5. **Drift section is irrelevant** — there is no `tokens.css` to drift against in new-brand mode, and no live brand to drift away from. + +6. **Original-prose self-audit still applies.** Even with a spec as input, don't paraphrase any third-party catalog's writeup of the same system. Write the prose in your own voice from the provided source materials. + +**Output frontmatter — spec-derived variant**: + +```yaml +--- +slug: +name: +source: spec-derived +verified-at: +verified-by: subagent +reference-materials: + - spec: + - imagery: + - + - + - principles: +canonical-canvas: +selection: + mood: [, ] + tone: [, ] + formality: + density: + canonical_canvas: + best_for: | + + avoid_for: | + +--- +``` + +Replace `verified-urls` with `reference-materials`.

Pre-dispatch moves the old `DESIGN.md` to `temp/design-system-originals/`; post-dispatch diffs to confirm originality. +- **Step 2 runs only if Step 1 surfaces drift** — the `DESIGN.md`'s "Drift vs `tokens.css`" subsection lists discrepancies; if any are substantive (real brand-colour changes, not noise), re-author `tokens.css` per Step 2's prompt. +- **Step 3 rarely runs** — the brand's `preview-template.html` is typically still valid from the prior audit cycle. Re-author only if Step 1 surfaces structural changes (new signature surface on the live brand, retired component the preview currently demos prominently). +- **Step 4 runs** — sync mounts, commit. +- **Post-refresh attribution drop**: once `DESIGN.md` is original prose, drop the brand from `visualize/NOTICES.md`'s third-party attribution list. + +## Batch authoring + +When a single dispatcher cycle ships N>1 design systems (typical of spec-derived batches — a curated set of register inventions, a Superdesign import, etc.), the per-system Steps 1-4 contract still applies in full to each system. **The temptation when batching is to amortise expensive steps across systems** — run build once across the whole batch, run detect-clean once at the end, skip the per-system polish pass. Don't. + +### The shortcut that doesn't work + +The specific shortcut that fails: telling each per-system subagent *"Do NOT run build or detect — dispatcher runs both centrally after all N subagents complete."* The reasoning is plausible (avoid N subagents racing on `dev-scripts/build-previews.sh` and the build outputs), and it is exactly what produced the May 2026 batch where 18 of 20 systems shipped with the same shape of `--muted-foreground × --background` sub-AA error in lockstep. The error class is common (`_template/tokens.css` ships shadcn-style muted-foreground at `oklch(0.55 0 0)` which lands ~4.17:1 on near-black canvases), `detect-clean` catches it deterministically per-system, and skipping the per-subagent loop ate the only signal that would have caught it before the batch landed. + +The skip saves ~30 seconds of subagent wall-clock per system. It costs an 18-system contrast-fix sweep dispatched after the fact. Net cost ~30× the original spend. + +### The rule + +**Each per-system subagent runs its own Step 3 detect-clean and contrast check before declaring done.** The race condition is real but the fix is not skipping the check — the fix is letting each subagent edit its `preview-template.html`, then invoking the build for *only its own slug* via a single-element `DESIGN_SYSTEMS` array override OR by inlining the render function inline-bash. Either pattern keeps the per-subagent feedback loop intact without races. + +When the build-script-race risk is genuinely intractable (large N, slow disks, hooks that fight back), the fallback is **dispatch in serialized batches of 1-2 systems at a time, not full parallelism**. Slower wall-clock, same correctness. + +### Pre-batch checklist + +Before dispatching a batch (any N>3), confirm: + +1. **Each subagent prompt includes its own Step 3 detect-clean step.** Grep your dispatch template for "do not run build" or "skip detect" — if it's there, you've already failed. +2. **Step 2 contrast pre-flight is in each per-subagent prompt.** Step 2 §8 in this doc enumerates the three pairs (`--muted-foreground × --background`, `--primary-foreground × --primary`, `--destructive-foreground × --destructive`). The single-system flow catches these; the batch flow only catches them if the per-subagent prompt requires the pre-flight explicitly. +3. **The `_template/tokens.css` is current** — it carries inline trap-warnings next to the three known sub-AA pairs. Subagents that read the scaffold (which they all do) see the warnings before they pick OKLCH values. +4. **Central Step 4 wire-up runs once at the end** (build all, sync mounts, commit). This is the only step that legitimately amortises across the batch. + +### Recovery when the rule was broken + +If a batch shipped with the per-subagent detect-clean skipped and `browser-contrast.mjs --strict` returns errors across multiple systems: + +1. Identify the dominant error pattern (the May 2026 batch was uniformly `--muted-foreground` × `--background` at body sizes — one pattern across 18 of 20 systems). +2. Dispatch one fix-contrast subagent per affected system, in parallel — each runs the contrast check, identifies failing selectors, applies "fix the surface, not the colour" (re-route consumers to a higher-contrast token, bump font-size to qualify large-text floor, retune chroma-0 utility neutrals). Brand chroma stays sacrosanct. +3. Central rebuild + catalog-wide contrast check. +4. Manual surgical fixes for the long tail of errors detect-clean still surfaces. + +This is the recovery path. Use it when you've already broken the rule. Use the rule (each subagent runs its own check) when you can. diff --git a/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/AUTHORING.md b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/AUTHORING.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..d55ecc9 --- /dev/null +++ b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/AUTHORING.md @@ -0,0 +1,431 @@ +# Authoring per-system preview-templates + +A companion reference for adding a custom `preview-template.html` to a design system under `visualize/design-systems//`.

The brand can evolve after verification: new default color scheme, different CTA register, redesigned surfaces, renamed components.

Notion's `DESIGN.md` documents the navy hero band as the homepage signature, but five of six documented pages use white/cream canvas. Both gaps are silent in the spec; visible in the live brand. + +**Always capture the homepage in both light and dark browser preferences** — sites with both modes will misread as dark-canonical (or vice versa) if you only sample one: + +```sh +mcp__chrome-devtools__emulate colorScheme=light +mcp__chrome-devtools__navigate_page url="https://.com" +mcp__chrome-devtools__take_screenshot filePath="temp/brand-refs/-live-light.png" fullPage=true + +mcp__chrome-devtools__emulate colorScheme=dark +mcp__chrome-devtools__navigate_page url="https://.com" +mcp__chrome-devtools__take_screenshot filePath="temp/brand-refs/-live-dark.png" fullPage=true +``` + +**When you find drift**, override the tokens / template to match the live brand. Document the divergence in a comment inside `tokens.css` at the override site so the next agent knows why the file disagrees with `DESIGN.md`. Don't edit `DESIGN.md` itself — frontmatter preserves the upstream import per the gotcha at the bottom of this doc. Intentional drift, surfaced and signed. + +## Brand colours are sacrosanct — fix the surface, not the colour + +A brand colour that fails AA in a given surface is not a colour bug, it's a surface bug. The OKLCH values in `tokens.css` come from `DESIGN.md` (or from the live-brand override you just signed in) and *are* the brand identity. Do NOT: + +- Lift / darken / retint `--primary`, `--accent`, or any chromatic `--brand-*` token in `:root` or `[data-theme="dark"]` to win contrast. Ferrari's Rosso Corsa, Stripe's purple, Notion's link blue, PostHog's stat-card accents, Nike's red/green, MongoDB's pressed-green are not yours to retune. +- Synthesise variant tokens (`--brand-X-ink`, `--brand-X-on-dark`, `--brand-eyebrow-ink`) that hold the brand colour at a lifted / darkened lightness — just so the brand colour can be used as text on dark where it would otherwise fail. That's the same mistake one indirection later: you've still changed the brand's deployed colour, the new token name just hides it. + +**The fix is the surface.** Re-home the consuming element to `--foreground` (white on dark, near-black on light), or route to a documented secondary brand colour (Ferrari Cavallino yellow, Notion's brand-charcoal, etc.). If the brand doesn't use that colour as text on dark on its live site, the preview shouldn't either. + +**Brand identity vs. utility neutrals.** Lifting near-zero-chroma gray utility tokens for AA is fine — `--brand-muted-soft`, `--brand-mute`, `--brand-stone`, `--brand-slate`, `--brand-ash`, `--brand-ink-tertiary/subtle/mute-N`, `--brand-on-dark-faint`, `--primary-foreground` swaps from white→dark when the primary is light. They're muted body-text neutrals or contrast-pair choices, not brand identity. The boundary: chroma > ~0.05 = brand identity, hands off; chroma ≈ 0 = utility neutral, retune for AA as needed. + +**Verify the live site before treating a contrast failure as "needs a brighter X."** Open the brand's website with `mcp__chrome-devtools__*` and look at where they actually put that colour. Ferrari Rosso Corsa is exposed as `--f-color-accent-100` and a gradient stop, never as body text on dark — we discovered this only after first lifting `--primary` (wrong) then synthesising `--brand-red-ink` (also wrong); the clean fix was to route eyebrows / hover / standings highlights to white and Cavallino yellow instead. The same audit applies before you reach for any brand-colour modification. + +**When a contrast failure persists after re-homing**, the question is "what does the brand do here?", not "how do I bend the colour." Options that don't touch brand identity: +- Add a background fill (red CTA card with white text on dark, instead of red text on dark). +- Use a secondary brand colour at full lightness. +- Use `--foreground` and carry differentiation via weight, size, tracking, or underline. +- Use a brand-documented neutral (`--brand-on-light` / `--brand-on-dark`). + +## Token naming conventions — the two-layer contract + +Every brand in this catalog ships `tokens.css` with two layers. Keep them clean and the audit-grep patterns below stay useful. + +### Layer 1 — shadcn-semantic core (names are the contract, values are yours) + +Universal primitive vocabulary that downstream shadcn components read directly. Brand-agnostic NAMES, brand-specific VALUES. Never rename, add to, or delete from this set per-brand. Setting different OKLCH values per brand is exactly what these slots are for. + +| Group | Tokens | +|---|---| +| Surfaces | `--background`, `--foreground`, `--card`, `--card-foreground`, `--popover`, `--popover-foreground`, `--muted`, `--muted-foreground`, `--accent`, `--accent-foreground` | +| Interactive | `--primary`, `--primary-foreground`, `--secondary`, `--secondary-foreground`, `--destructive`, `--destructive-foreground` | +| Chrome | `--border`, `--input`, `--ring` | +| Sidebar | `--sidebar`, `--sidebar-foreground`, `--sidebar-primary`, `--sidebar-primary-foreground`, `--sidebar-accent`, `--sidebar-accent-foreground`, `--sidebar-border`, `--sidebar-ring` | +| Data viz | `--chart-1` through `--chart-5` | +| Radii | `--radius` plus `--radius-sm`, `--radius-md`, `--radius-lg`, `--radius-xl` | + +### Layer 2 — brand-extras (`--brand-*`, surface-named) + +The brand's own design-system vocabulary. Lightness ladders, secondary palettes, polarity-locked surfaces, hairlines, semantic palette, decorative tokens — whatever shadcn-core doesn't model. + +Token names encode **surface role**, never colour-with-modifier. + +| Suffix family | Meaning | Examples | +|---|---|---| +| `-bg`, `-canvas`, `-canvas-{night,light}`, `-surface-N`, `-surface-{elevated,strong,soft}` | a surface fill | `--brand-canvas-night`, `--brand-surface-1`, `--brand-surface-elevated` | +| `-ink`, `-ink-{strong,mute,subtle}`, `-on-dark{,-soft,-faint}`, `-on-light{,-strong}` | a foreground locked to a canvas polarity (role, not colour) | `--brand-on-dark`, `--brand-on-light`, `--brand-ink-strong`, `--brand-ink-mute` | +| `-hairline`, `-hairline-{soft,strong}` | divider / border weight | `--brand-hairline-soft` | +| `-radius-*` | radii in the brand's scale | `--brand-radius-pill`, `--brand-radius-xs` | +| `-body`, `-body-{muted,strong}` | body text colour | `--brand-body`, `--brand-body-muted` | +| `-accent-` | documented secondary brand colour at full chroma | `--brand-accent-yellow`, `--brand-action-blue` | +| Brand-primary lineage | brand's own documented ladder for the primary hue | `--brand-primary-deep`, `--brand-primary-press`, `--brand-primary-soft` | +| `-mute`, `-muted-soft`, `-stone`, `-slate`, `-ash` (chroma ≈ 0) | utility neutrals for muted body text — these CAN be AA-tuned per the rule | `--brand-muted-soft`, `--brand-stone` | + +### Forbidden name shapes (the synthesis anti-pattern in name form) + +Don't introduce these. Audit catches them. + +- **`--brand--ink`** paired with a chromatic hue: `--brand-coral-ink`, `--brand-rausch-ink`, `--brand-red-ink`. The `-ink` suffix on a colour name signals "brand colour at a different lightness for text use" — that's the synthesis pattern. (Hue-anchored `--brand-ink-mute` / `--brand-ink-strong` are fine: they name the body-text role, not a chromatic modification.) +- **`--brand--on-dark`**: `--brand-blue-on-dark`, `--brand-coral-on-dark`. Names "the brand colour but lifted for dark canvases." Same pattern. +- **`--brand--deep`** paired with a chromatic hue: `--brand-blue-deep`, `--brand-brand-green-deep`. Almost always a synthesised "darker variant" with no documented brand-doc value. (`--brand-primary-deep` is fine when the brand actually documents the ladder — see stripe-style.) +- **Surface-named but colour-modified**: `--brand-eyebrow-ink`, `--brand-stat-delta-up`, `--brand-stat-delta-down`. The surface name is right; baking a lifted/darkened colour value into a single-purpose token is the smell. + +### Auditable greps + +Forbidden name shapes: + +```sh +grep -nE '\-\b(red|blue|green|coral|amber|sale|success|rausch|orange|purple|violet|teal|cyan|magenta|pink|yellow|lime)-\b(ink|on-dark|deep|pressed|darker|lighter)\b' \ + visualize/design-systems/*/tokens.css +``` + +Comment smells (token value justified by contrast math — the rationale-form of the same anti-pattern): + +```sh +grep -nE '\b(AA|WCAG|[0-9]\.[0-9]+:1|lifted (from|to)|darkened (from|to)|brighten\w* (for|to)|≥4\.5:1|≥3:1|sub-AA)\b' \ + visualize/design-systems/*/tokens.css +``` + +Both should return empty across the catalog, with two known legitimate exceptions documented in their tokens.css headers: +- **ibm-style** cites Carbon's documented Blue 60 → Blue 50 theme swap (`carbon-design-system/carbon packages/themes/src/g100.js`). +- **ide** declares itself a generic synthesised theme with no external brand authority. + +### Primary-family asymmetry + +Within each context block (`:root`, `[data-theme="dark"]`, `@media (prefers-color-scheme: dark)`), the four primary-family tokens — `--primary`, `--ring`, `--sidebar-primary`, `--sidebar-ring` — should carry the same OKLCH value. A diff on just `--primary` is a retroactive contrast patch; a brand-truth update would have moved the whole family together. Same applies to the `--brand-primary-*` ladder if the brand carries one: every member should track a documented value, not a synthesised stop. + +## Surface selection: look past the homepage hero + +The brand's recognizable signature is rarely the homepage hero alone. Some brands open with a marquee-only surface that doesn't repeat on `/pricing`, `/enterprise`, `/product/*`, `/startups` — Notion's deep navy "Meet the night shift" hero band is the canonical example. Five of the six pages documented in Notion's `DESIGN.md` (everything except the homepage) use a white/cream canvas with pastel feature cards; only the homepage carries the navy band. + +Anchoring the preview shell on a homepage marquee misrepresents the system — the preview reads as "Notion homepage clone" rather than "Notion design system." The common style — the surface that appears across most documented pages — should drive the shell. Marquee-only signatures appear as accent surfaces (a single section card later on the page, a punctuation band before the footer), not as the headline. + +**Before authoring, capture 2–3 secondary pages** from the list in `DESIGN.md` §1 / the import provenance, not just the homepage: + +```bash +# Notion case — DESIGN.md lists homepage + enterprise + product/ai + product/agents + startups + pricing +mcp__chrome-devtools__navigate_page url="https://www.notion.com/product/ai" +mcp__chrome-devtools__take_screenshot filePath="temp/brand-refs/notion-product-ai.png" fullPage=true +mcp__chrome-devtools__navigate_page url="https://www.notion.com/pricing" +mcp__chrome-devtools__take_screenshot filePath="temp/brand-refs/notion-pricing.png" fullPage=true +mcp__chrome-devtools__navigate_page url="https://www.notion.com/enterprise" +mcp__chrome-devtools__take_screenshot filePath="temp/brand-refs/notion-enterprise.png" fullPage=true +``` + +If those pages share a canvas the homepage doesn't, the homepage is the marquee — design the shell around the shared canvas instead. + +### Selection metadata vocabulary + +Every catalog `DESIGN.md` carries a `selection:` frontmatter block so agents can shortlist reference systems without reading 100+ full files. Keep it descriptive, not promotional. The block is catalog routing metadata; it is not rendered in the preview. + +```yaml +selection: + mood: [minimal, productivity, technical] + tone: [calm, pragmatic, precise] + formality: medium + density: high + canonical_canvas: light + best_for: | + Product surfaces that need restrained structure, readable tables, and quiet workflow chrome. + avoid_for: | + Campaign pages that need theatrical motion, oversized imagery, or high-emotion lifestyle cues. +``` + +Allowed values: + +| Field | Values | +|---|---| +| `mood` | `austere`, `automotive`, `brand-system`, `cinematic`, `command-line`, `commerce`, `cyberpunk`, `data-rich`, `developer`, `editorial`, `enterprise`, `gradient`, `high-contrast`, `industrial`, `luxury`, `minimal`, `monochrome`, `organic`, `playful`, `productivity`, `retro-tech`, `spatial`, `tactile`, `technical` | +| `tone` | `authoritative`, `bold`, `calm`, `confident`, `dramatic`, `energetic`, `experimental`, `fast`, `friendly`, `irreverent`, `optimistic`, `polished`, `pragmatic`, `precise`, `premium`, `serious`, `utilitarian`, `warm` | +| `formality` | `low`, `medium`, `high` | +| `density` | `low`, `medium`, `high` | +| `canonical_canvas` | `light`, `dark`, `both` | + +`selection.canonical_canvas` must match the top-level `canonical-canvas`. When changing either one, run: + +```sh +node dev-scripts/catalog-index.mjs --check +``` + +The generated `catalog-index.json` is deterministic and committed. Do not hand-edit it; update `DESIGN.md` metadata, then regenerate with `node dev-scripts/catalog-index.mjs`. + +## Animation patterns + +Per-system preview templates should use the shared motion vocabulary in [`animation-patterns.md`](animation-patterns.md). That file owns entrance, hover, background, and reduced-motion conventions for catalog previews. Use those patterns before inventing custom keyframes; if a brand needs bespoke motion, keep the names and timing compatible with the catalog vocabulary so future audits can reason about it. + +## Content shape: Halcyon is a name only — no the host product product surface, no brand-X lift + +The single hardest rule in this catalog: + +> **Halcyon is a fictional company NAME with NO defined product.** It is not the host product. It does not publish artifacts. It does not gate publishing. It does not run an MCP comment loop. It does not version + audit artifacts. Anything that names the host product's actual product surface IS a leak, regardless of whether the word "Halcyon" is wrapped around it. + +This is unintuitive: "Halcyon publishes artifacts behind company auth" *sounds* like Halcyon content, but it's literally the host product's marketing copy. Renaming the host product → Halcyon doesn't make the surface fictional; it just gives the host product a fake name. + +The opposite trap also applies: scrubbing Halcyon and lifting brand X's marketing — "Pro for Teams" as a tier name, "Notion AI" as a feature card, "Cursor Tab" as a code-completion section, "by @raycast" on extensions, real customer logos in the logo strip — turns the preview into an unauthorized re-skin. + +The right shape is **Halcyon as a placeholder name, Halcyon's TEAM USING the brand for general knowledge work**, with brand-X-shape mockups carrying neutral SaaS-team content. + +### Halcyon thread-through (always keep) + +These names are established convention and identify the catalog's fictional brand: + +- Topnav brand mark: `__DESIGN_SYSTEM_NAME__` (interpolates the slug, e.g. "notion-style") or literal "halcyon" +- URLs / handles: `halcyon.dev`, `app.halcyon.dev`, `hlc.so`, `@halcyon/cli` +- Engineering universe: `halcyon-api`, `halcyon-worker`, `halcyon-webapp`, `halcyon-cli`, internal Slack "Halcyon HQ" +- People: `team@halcyon.dev`, generic team members +- Footer tagline, customer-logo strip wordmarks + +### People: never real names + +Avatars, inbox senders, byline names, db-row owners, deploy attribution, "shared by" tags — every place the template renders a person's name — must be **invented**. Never use a real person's name, including: + +- The current operator's name or initials (read from git config, CLAUDE.md, memory, or any in-session context) +- Anyone on the host product's actual team +- Real customers, investors, advisors, or any known living person +- Email addresses that route to real people (anything matching the operator's local-part) + +Use generic invented names + invented initials. Suggested pool: `Jordan Kim` / `JK`, `Morgan Lee` / `ML`, `Avery Park` / `AP`, `Riley Chen` / `RC`, `Sam Walker` / `SW`, `Taylor Reyes` / `TR`. These are gender-neutral, not associated with any known person, and rotate across mockups so no single name dominates. + +The leak pattern is subtle: the agent often reaches for the operator's name as a "plausible team member" when filling in a mockup. It isn't. It's a PII leak that ships into a public preview catalog. If you're authoring a per-brand template and any human name appears in the body, swap it for one from the invented pool above before committing. + +### Forbidden vocabulary (the host product product surface) + +Any of these appearing anywhere in a preview is a leak — even if wrapped in Halcyon language: + +- `publish` / `publishing` / `publish artifact` / `gated publishing` +- `artifact` / `artifacts` (the host product's primitive) +- `comment thread` / `resolve comment` / `comments → MCP loop` / `MCP comment` +- `custom domain` / `custom apex` / `tenant subdomain` (when described as a product feature) +- `version history` / `versioned + audited` / `version log` +- `SSO gating` / `audit log` (when described as headline product features) +- `chrome injection` / `edge-served chrome` +- `view-token` / `view freshness` / `KV fail-open` + +The fix is never "rephrase the leak more cleverly." The fix is: describe **how Halcyon's team uses the brand**, with neutral SaaS-team content (engineering practices, team rituals, weekly metrics, generic SaaS surfaces). + +### Per-register Halcyon-team content (no product features) + +| Register | Halcyon-team content (no product surface) | +|---|---| +| Command launcher (Raycast, Warp, Superhuman) | Halcyon's team using generic launcher tools — Hacker News reader, Slack channel jump, GitHub PR list, window management, clipboard history. Generic dev-team tooling, NOT extensions that map to the host product infra | +| IDE (Cursor) | Halcyon engineering code in any file — `tenant.ts` (multi-tenant provisioning), `auth.ts` (SSO bootstrap), route handlers, config — anything a generic B2B SaaS engineer writes. NOT `publish.ts` with `halcyon.publish()` | +| Workspace tool (Notion, ClickUp, Coda) | Halcyon team rituals — engineering specs, design crits, Q3 planning, customer interviews, sprint cycles.

They should describe **how Halcyon's team uses the brand**, in the brand's voice register: + +| Surface | What goes here | +|---|---| +| Hero copy | Brand-flavored aphorism about the brand's value to a SaaS team. NOT "Halcyon publishes artifacts behind company auth" | +| Feature cards | Engineering / team / workflow aphorisms — "Reviews land by lunch", "Threads close themselves", "Page history explains itself". Brand-token demonstrations (color swatches, type scale, component vocabulary) also work — see the shipped 7 templates for that pattern | +| Pricing tiers | Generic SaaS tier shapes (Free / Solo / Pro / Enterprise) with generic SaaS features (storage, users, support level, basic SSO). NOT the host product's specific differentiators ("Named-email sharing", "Custom apex", "Audit log") and NOT brand X's actual tier structure | +| Stats band | Generic team metrics — pages updated, PRs opened, deploys this week, comments resolved, cross-team adoption. NOT "artifacts in flight" / "publish latency" | +| Customer-logo strip | halcyon.dev / hlc.so / @halcyon/cli wordmarks. NOT real third-party brands (Stripe / Linear / Vercel / NVIDIA) | + +### The two-minute litmus test before shipping + +Read the preview's text out loud. Ask: + +1. **Does anything I just read describe the host product's actual product surface?** (publishing, artifacts, gated, comment loop, version log, audit, chrome injection) — if yes, it's a leak even when wrapped in "Halcyon." +2. **Does anything I just read appear on the brand's actual marketing site verbatim?** (tier names, branded product features, real customer logos) — if yes, it's a lift. +3. **Does the body copy literally name the brand?** ("Halcyon's team uses Cursor", "Notion's bold yellow tint", "Try Claude" button label, model cards named "Halcyon Sonnet / Opus / Haiku") — if yes, it's a soft lift. The brand identifies itself through its visual chrome, never through being named in the prose. The topnav brand mark is the catalog slug (`__DESIGN_SYSTEM_NAME__`), not "Cursor" or "Notion." +4. **If I replaced "Halcyon" with "Acme" everywhere, would the preview still describe the same fictional company?** If swapping the name changes what the preview is "about," the name was carrying real-product meaning — that's a leak. + +A clean preview passes all four. + +### Prose rhythm: no aphorism stacks, no fragment chains + +Two AI-rhythm tells that show up under pressure to sound profound: + +**Stacked parallel-construction aphorisms**: "The agent stays in the loop, the editor stays in the keyboard, and the codebase stays close to the question." Three "X stays Y" clauses in a row reads as empty pseudo-poetry — each clause sounds like it means something, the stack means nothing. Same trap: "Pages own their topic; the team owns the page; the comments own the gaps." If you find yourself writing three parallel-structured clauses in a row to fill a sentence, the sentence isn't carrying a real claim. + +**Sequential period-fragment chains**: "Diff. Accept. Ship." or "Pages, calendars, database views." The X. Y. Z. cadence reads as an AI rhythm tell, not Carl-voice (per `feedback_fragment_chain_ai_slop` memory). Single fragments in isolation are fine; chained fragments are slop. + +The fix in both cases: replace with a concrete two-sentence prose statement that says one thing per sentence. "Halcyon's engineering team ships multiple PRs a day. The agent drafts the diff and runs the tests before a human signs off at the merge boundary." Two sentences, one verb-driven claim each, no parallel-structure decoration. + +## Dark-mode strategy + +Decide before authoring. Read `DESIGN.md` §1 to determine the brand's canonical canvas: + +| Brand canonical canvas | Dark-mode strategy | +|---|---| +| Light-canonical with a real product dark mode (Stripe, Apple, Claude, Vercel) | Hand-edit `[data-theme="dark"]` to the brand's actual dark surface. Look for `--brand-surface-dark` / `--brand-canvas-night` / equivalent brand-extras tokens. Override brand-extras (`--brand-canvas-soft`, `--brand-ink-mute`, etc.) so interlude bands and helper inks read on dark. | +| Light-canonical, no documented dark mode | Synthesise a plausible dark — near-black canvas, light foreground, brand accent stays. Match the brand's actual **product** dark mode (the app, the dashboard), not a marketing-marquee surface from one page. Notion's product dark is warm-near-black; the homepage navy is marketing-only. Extending a marketing-marquee color across the dark canvas misrepresents the brand. | +| Dark-canonical (Linear, SpaceX, Ferrari) | Both modes mirror `:root`. If `:root` encodes a light shop variant (SpaceX case), update `:root` to the dark marketing variant and mirror in `[data-theme="dark"]`. | + +The synthesised OKLCH lightness inversion (the catalogue's import-time default) breaks for nearly every brand — either text becomes the same lightness as the inverted bg, or warm tints flip to wrong-temperature cool. Always hand-edit. + +Marquee surfaces (the Notion navy band, etc.) should still appear in the dark preview — but as a single accent card with brand-extras navy tokens preserved, not as the canvas itself. The navy CTA card in `notion-style/preview-template.html` is the canonical pattern. + +### Polarity-locked tokens: never lift in dark + +If a brand-extras token names an always-dark ink for always-light surfaces (e.g. `--brand-pricing-ink`, `--brand-canvas-night`, `--brand-on-light-strong`), do NOT add a dark-mode override that lifts it. The token's surface doesn't flip with theme, so the ink shouldn't either — lifting it inverts the contrast against the locked surface and breaks every consumer downstream. Airtable's first iteration lifted `--brand-pricing-ink` to a light value in dark mode and broke 26 browser-contrast checks across the db grid, swatches, pricing tiles, topnav, and footer — every one of those surfaces was polarity-locked white. The fix: leave polarity-locked tokens at their `:root` value; only lift tokens used on theme-flipping surfaces (e.g. `--brand-body` for editorial text on canvas that does flip). + +The symmetric case: a token named for always-light surfaces (e.g. `--brand-on-dark` = white) doesn't need an override — it's already always-light by definition. The trap is the unnamed assumption that "all `--brand-*` should lift in dark." They shouldn't. + +### Single-polarity brands: only lock signature voltage + +For brands whose canonical canvas is single-polarity (light-canonical, no documented dark — Airtable is the worked example), don't apply shopify's multi-section `.canvas-cream` / `.canvas-night` pattern. That pattern works because shopify's two-track polarity is documented in the brand. For single-polarity brands, only the truly polarity-fixed signature surface (the brand's voltage moment — Airtable's white database grid, Stripe's gradient mesh hero, Notion's navy marketing band) stays canvas-locked in the dark variant. Demo sections (color swatches, surface ladder, pricing, typography, components) must flip with theme — otherwise the dark variant reads as "mostly light with three dark accents" rather than a coherent dark mode. + +Rule of thumb: count the locked sections in your dark screenshot. More than one or two and the page no longer reads as "dark mode of brand X" — it reads as "light page with an inverted hero band." Airtable's first iteration locked four sections; unlocking three (swatches, ladder, pricing) and keeping only the database grid locked was the fix. + +## Detect-clean checklist + +After `bash dev-scripts/build-previews.sh`, run both detectors: + +```sh +# Structural CSS lint (slop / meta / non-contrast rules) +node visualize/scripts/detect.mjs --strict visualize/design-systems//preview.html visualize/design-systems//preview-dark.html + +# Computed contrast via headless Chrome + axe-core (the canonical +# contrast check — resolves var() colors, cross-rule cascade, and +# per-theme computed styles; detect.mjs's a11y/low-contrast rule +# is structurally blind to var() and skips silently). +node visualize/scripts/browser-contrast.mjs visualize/design-systems//preview.html visualize/design-systems//preview-dark.html +``` + +Expected: +- `detect.mjs --strict`: `OK · N rules clean across 2 file(s)`. +- `browser-contrast.mjs`: `OK · 1 rule clean across 2 file(s)`. **Errors fail the check. Warnings are verification gaps, not passes.** axe returns `needs-review` rather than `fail` when it can't measure the background — gradients, pseudo-element backgrounds, single-char glyphs, `→` arrows. That means axe couldn't tell whether contrast is OK; it does NOT mean contrast is OK. Each `needs-review` warning on a text-containing element is a task: open the rendered PNG (`bash dev-scripts/screenshot-previews.sh `) and look at the text against the actual background. If the text reads, the warning is closed. If it doesn't, fix it (reposition stops, extend a fade, add a wash) — do not ship. + +Single-char glyphs (`★`, `→`, `›`) and pure-decoration pseudo-elements that contain no readable text are safe to leave; those warnings are genuine axe limits. Text-containing elements (`h1`, `p`, button labels, `figcaption`) are not. + +Renamed `detect-computed.mjs` → `browser-contrast.mjs` in commit `30aed2a`. Older docs reference the prior name. + +## Polish pass + +After the preview is detect-clean but before you ship the batch, run a polish pass. **Polish is NOT idempotent on first authoring** — there is always something to improve if you actually look. The mechanical floor (spacing ladder, favicon, OG meta) converges quickly; the quality dimensions below never do. + +### Mechanical floor (first pass — fix without thinking) + +1. **Spacing ladder.** Snap every margin / padding / gap to `0 4 8 12 16 20 24 32 40 48 64 80 96 128` (rem: `0 0.25 0.5 0.75 1 1.25 1.5 2 2.5 3 4 5 6 8`). Off-scale values authoring tends to reach for: `0.625rem` (10px), `0.875rem` (14px), `1.125rem` (18px), `1.75rem` (28px), `0.375rem` (6px), `0.125rem` (2px). + + ```sh + grep -nE '(0\.(125|375|625|875)|1\.(125|375|625|875)|1\.75|2\.25|2\.75|3\.5|5\.5)rem' \ + visualize/design-systems//preview-template.html + ``` + + Font-size `clamp()` declarations are exempt — fluid type scales follow their own ramp. + +2. **Favicon + OG meta present** in the per-system `` (per-system templates don't inherit `preview-kit/template.html`). + +3. **Detect-clean on both modes.** `node scripts/detect.mjs --strict ` returns `0 error 0 warning`. + +### Quality dimensions (second pass — actually look) + +These are the dimensions where authoring routinely leaves gaps. Walk each one before declaring done — there is almost always something to fix. + +| Dimension | What to check | +|---|---| +| **Focus-visible** | Every `.btn` (and any other interactive element) has a visible `:focus-visible` outline. Keyboard users see nothing when this is missing. | +| **Touch targets** | Buttons have `min-height: 44px` (WCAG AA touch-target floor). Default 14px text + 0.5rem padding lands around ~38px — under floor. | +| **Reduced motion** | If any hover state transforms / animates, wrap a `@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce)` override that disables the motion. | +| **Dark-mode shadows** | Hard offset-shadow elements (`box-shadow: 2px 2px 0 0 var(--brand-charcoal)`) are invisible in dark mode when the shadow color stays dark. Either flip via a local CSS var (`--preview-button-shadow` pattern) or use `var(--foreground)` so it inverts with the canvas. Same for borders on cards. | +| **Neutral temperature** | Follow the system’s documented identity. Neutral gray and warm/cool tints are all valid; inspect foreground/background pairs rather than forcing a tint. | +| **Typography hierarchy** | Same elements use same sizes/weights across the page. Hero / section title / card title scale stays consistent. | +| **Contrast** | Body text passes WCAG AA on both canvases. Muted labels stay above 4.5:1. | +| **Inline styles** | If you reach for `style="margin-top:0.5rem"` more than 2-3 times, the spacing was wrong somewhere — fix the source. | +| **Sticky scroll regions / overflow** | Tree-cards, IDE mockups, palette mockups — anything with `overflow: hidden` should also handle long content gracefully (text-overflow / max-width). | +| **Opacity-blended labels** | `opacity: 0.55-0.7` on always-dark ink against an always-light surface typically lands around 3.3-4.0:1 — below WCAG AA 4.5:1 for body-size labels. Bump to 0.8-0.85, or replace the opacity blend with a fixed mid-tone token. Airtable's first iteration had `0.55/0.6/0.7` opacities on db-header, ladder-num, section-eyebrow that all failed; bumping to `0.7/0.85` cleared every one. | +| **Signature-palette chip contrast** | Each chip background in the brand's pastel palette needs its text-color contrast verified. Mid-saturation palettes (mustard, ochre, mid-orange) are the trap — they look "dark enough" for white text but typically land at 2-3:1. Default to the brand's always-dark ink (`--brand-pricing-ink`, `--brand-canvas-night`) on light chips; only flip to `--brand-on-dark` for genuinely-dark chips (coral, forest, navy). | + +### When the polish pass produces a diff + +That's the norm, not the exception. Every brand authored this session got real polish-pass improvements after the initial detect-clean: focus rings added, touch-target floors enforced, dark-mode shadow flips, hover-state reduced-motion overrides. The mechanical floor (spacing ladder) is the part that converges to zero diffs across iterations — the quality dimensions never do. + +Common findings + fixes: + +- **`meta/missing-favicon`** — add an inline-SVG favicon to ``, typically a brand-mark glyph on the brand canvas color. +- **`meta/missing-og`** — add `og:title`, `og:description`, `twitter:card` meta tags. +- **`slop/non-token-color`** — flagged when hex literals appear in CSS that otherwise uses var refs. Usual cause: `var(--token, #000)` fallback form. Strip the fallback (`var(--token)` is fine when the token is guaranteed defined by the inlined tokens.css). For decorative gradient stops without a token home (mesh atmospherics, photographic backdrops), scope local CSS custom properties at `:root` inside the template's ` + + + + + + + + + + +

The marketing surface (airtable.com) defaults to a white canvas with vivid hero stripes layered over it. The product surface (the actual base editor / app) wires up a complete `.theme-dark` token block — every semantic colour token has a documented dark counterpart in `pricing.css`. The signature voltage moments — the field-type-pill record grid, the cream/peach/forest hero stripes — stay polarity-locked and read as light-on-light identity rather than as theme-switchable surfaces. + +| Surface | URL | Canvas | Notes | +|---|---|---|---| +| Home | https://airtable.com/ | White (`#FFFFFF`) with stacked full-bleed bands in `#FCAB79` peach, `#C7E5F2` sky-blue, `#254FAD` navy, `#0A2E0E` forest | Hero band swaps colour per scroll section — the bands ARE the brand chrome, hero typography stays white-on-dark or black-on-light against whichever band | +| Pricing | https://airtable.com/pricing | White, plan cards on `gray25` (`#F9FAFB`) lift band | Pulls in `brandkit-font.css` + `helpers.css` + `pricing.css` — the canonical first-party design-system surface | +| Product | https://airtable.com/product | White with field-pill mockups | Field-type chip palette (the rainbow pill row) is the recognizability anchor | +| Solutions | https://airtable.com/solutions | White, cyan-anchored | Single-accent SVG illustrations all carry the cyan brand-accent fill | +| Enterprise | https://airtable.com/enterprise | White with dark `#181D26` nav | Layout mirrors home, hero stripes are tighter — single feature card per band | +| Login | https://airtable.com/login | White, centred form | Loads `compiled/all.css` only — minimal chrome, primary button uses `#2D7FF9` (historic Airtable action blue, distinct from the design-system `#166EE1`) | +| Developers | https://airtable.com/developers | White, docs-shape | Loads the same Next.js bundle but no inline accent palette — pure body content surface | +| Product app (auth-walled) | https://airtable.com/app/... | `.theme-dark` activates near-black `#1D1F25` canvas | Sampled indirectly via the `.theme-dark` block in `pricing.css` — every `--colors-*` token has a full dark override defined | + +The `both` decision: marketing is light-canonical, but the product canvas has a complete first-party dark theme defined in the same stylesheet that drives the marketing nav. Treating Airtable as light-only erases half of the deployed token surface. + +## §2 Palette + +Airtable's identity has two distinct colour systems running in parallel. The **field-type rainbow palette** (`--palette-{hue}-{hue}` with `Dark1/Dusty/Light1/Light2/Light3` stops) is the historic record-pill vocabulary — ten hues at six stops each, vivid and saturated, used in the database UI to colour-code selects, kanban lanes, and gallery cards. The **gray scale** (`--palette-gray-gray{25..900}` plus `--palette-neutral-*` aliases) anchors product chrome — twelve cool-blue-tinted neutral stops, hue ≈ 264-271, that drive every surface, border, and body-text role through the `--colors-*` semantic alias layer. + +Layered on top: the **marketing hero stripe palette** (peach `#FCAB79`, sky-blue `#C7E5F2`, navy `#254FAD`, forest `#0A2E0E`) is a separate four-colour set the homepage uses as alternating full-bleed bands. These are inline `backgroundColor` declarations on the home page hero, not tokenized anywhere in the brandkit — they're marketing-art-direction, not part of the design-system token surface. Treat them as documented accent surfaces for marketing-shape preview but route the product token vocabulary off the gray scale + palette-blue family. + +### Brand primary + +The semantic primary in the design system is `--palette-blue-blue` = `rgb(22, 110, 225)` = `#166EE1`, mapped to `--colors-background-primary-control` and `--colors-hyperlink-primary`. The marketing nav resolves to the lighter `#0768F8` for `--mainNavCtaBackground` / `--mainNavButtonBackgroundPrimary` in light mode and falls to `#1B61C9` in dark mode. The login page ships a separate historic value `#2D7FF9` (visible on the SSO continue button) — three blues coexist across surfaces, all readable as "Airtable Blue" but technically distinct. + +- `--primary`: `oklch(0.5573 0.1921 257.9488)` (= `#166EE1`). Live: pricing.css — `--palette-blue-blue` token; resolves to `--colors-background-primary-control`, `--colors-hyperlink-primary`, `--colors-border-focus`. +- `--brand-primary-active`: `oklch(0.4548 0.1580 258.0044)` (= `#0D52AC`).

Live: pricing.css — Airtable uses opacity-based borders (`rgba(0,0,0,0.05)` light / `rgba(255,255,255,0.05)` dark) rather than solid-colour borders. +- `--input`: tracks `--border`. Live: pricing.css — `--colors-border-default` = `--palette-opacity-darken2` (light) / `--palette-opacity-lighten2` (dark). +- `--ring`: `oklch(0.5573 0.1921 257.9488)` (= `#166EE1`). Live: pricing.css — `--colors-border-focus` = `--palette-blue-blue` in both themes. + +### Polarity-locked surfaces + +Marketing hero stripes are polarity-locked — Airtable never inverts these to a lighter peach or paler navy in a dark mode.

Live: home.html cream interlude band. +- `--brand-pricing-ink`: `oklch(0.2398 0.0119 270.8831)` (= `#1D1F25`). The always-dark ink for the polarity-locked light surfaces (pricing tier card body, field-pill labels on light chips). Same value as `--palette-gray-gray800` — coincidence of the same hex but role-distinct: locked-dark-on-locked-light, not theme-flippable. +- `--brand-surface-dark`: `oklch(0.2398 0.0119 270.8831)` (= `#1D1F25`). Live: pricing.css — `--mainNavBackground` resolves to this in dark / "theme-black" nav variant; also the product canvas itself. + +### Hairlines / dividers + +Airtable's dividers are opacity-based, not solid-colour. The pattern: black-at-low-alpha on light, white-at-low-alpha on dark — so they read as the same visual weight regardless of theme. + +- `--brand-hairline-soft`: `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05)` = `--palette-opacity-darken1`. Live: pricing.css — `--colors-border-subtle` light. Dark counterpart: `rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.05)`. +- `--brand-hairline-strong`: `oklch(0.6665 0.0000 0.0000)` (= `#949494`, `--palette-gray-gray350`).

Dark counterpart: `rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.25)` = `--palette-opacity-lighten3`. + +### Drift vs `tokens.css` + +The current `tokens.css` has notable drift vs the live brand: + +1. **`--primary` is set to the foreground ink (`oklch(0.2299 0.0191 262.1114)` = `#1D2129`), not the brand blue.** The live brand uses `#166EE1` as `--colors-background-primary-control` and as the primary interactive colour everywhere — buttons, links, focus rings. Reconciliation: swap `--primary` and `--ring` to `oklch(0.5573 0.1921 257.9488)`; the dark `#1D1F25` ink is what `--foreground` already encodes. +2. **`--brand-primary-active` value of `oklch(0.1799 0.0147 253.2188)` is darker than the live `--palette-blue-blueDark1`** which lands at `oklch(0.4548 0.1580 258.0044)` (`#0D52AC`). The current value is an over-darkened approximation of the brand-blue-active. Reconciliation: lift to the documented `palette-blue-blueDark1` value. +3. **`--brand-link` (`oklch(0.5125 0.1758 259.0877)`) is close but slightly off** from the documented `palette-blue-blue` `oklch(0.5573 0.1921 257.9488)`. Same ink, drift of 0.045 lightness. Reconciliation: snap to the canonical value. +4. **`--brand-signature-mint` (`oklch(0.8428 0.0573 167.5796)`)** doesn't appear in the live first-party palette. The closest documented stop is `--palette-teal-tealLight1` `oklch(~0.88 ~0.082 ~190)`. Likely a paraphrase of the mint/teal pill colour; reconcile to the documented teal stop if used, otherwise mark as "decorative-only, not in brandkit." +5. **`--brand-signature-coral` (`oklch(0.4894 0.1675 36.0214)` = `#AA2D00`)** matches `--palette-orange-orangeDark1` exactly — the labelling drift is the issue ("coral" reads warmer than this rust-orange value). Reconciliation: rename to `--brand-signature-rust` or `--brand-accent-orange-dark`, or shift the OKLCH value up to a true coral. +6. **`--font-display: Haas Groot Disp` is misspelled** — the live brand-kit ships `HaasDisplay` (`@font-face` family name in brandkit-font.css). The typo "Groot" should be "Grotesk Display" or simply "HaasDisplay" (which is what the brand-kit @font-face declares). The legacy synthesised `Haas, sans-serif` fallback for `--font-sans` is also wrong: live `--font-family-body` is `-apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, ...` — Airtable ships HaasText for marketing chrome but defaults body to system stack. Reconciliation: declare `--font-sans: -apple-system, system-ui, ...; --font-display: 'Inter Display', 'HaasDisplay', system-ui, sans-serif;`. +7. **`--text-base: 14px` is one notch larger than the live brand** — the documented `--font-size-body-default: 13px` in pricing.css. Reconciliation: 13px aligns with the brandkit; 14px is the catalog default that doesn't match. + +## §3 Typography + +Airtable's documented type families across surfaces: + +| Role | Family | Weight | Size | Line-height | Tracking | +|---|---|---|---|---|---| +| Display (marketing) | `HaasDisplay` (Neue Haas Grot Display Round) → fallback `-apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont` | 500 (medium) | clamp(36px, 5vw, 64px) — observed `font-size-heading-xxxlarge: 35px` as the bottom of the range | 1.05-1.1 (tight) | -0.01em | +| Heading (app + product UI) | `Inter Display` → fallback `-apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, sans-serif` | 500-600 | `--font-size-heading-{xxsmall..xxxlarge}` ladder: 13/15/17/21/23/27/31/35px | 1.1-1.25 | normal | +| Heading (legacy) | `GT Eesti Display` → same fallback chain | 500-600 | same ladder | same | same | +| Title | `Inter Display` (heading family) | 500-600 | 17-23px | 1.2 | normal | +| Body | `HaasText` on marketing chrome; `-apple-system, system-ui` everywhere else | 400 (regular) / 500 (medium) | `--font-size-body-default: 13px`, `body-large: 15px`, `body-small: 11px`, `body-xsmall: 9px` | 1.4-1.5 | normal | +| Caption | system stack | 400 | 11-13px | 1.4 | normal | +| Mono | `Menlo, Courier, monospace` | 400 | 12-13px | 1.5 | normal | + +Notes on type behaviour observed: + +- **Three concurrent display families** — Haas Grot Round (marketing chrome via brandkit-font.css), Inter Display (semantic heading family in the design system), GT Eesti Display (legacy heading, still referenced as `--font-family-heading-legacy`).

This density is part of the brand register; preserve it in mockups rather than upsizing to a 14/15px catalog default. +- **No variable-axis usage observed.** Inter Display ships variable-weight on the public CDN, but Airtable serves it via Google Fonts (or `@font-face` declarations not visible in the sampled CSS) without explicit variation-settings rules. +- **Heading sizes climb in 2-4px steps** — 13/15/17/21/23/27/31/35 (no 19, no 25, no 29).

Halcyon · Workspace

+

Editorial workspace for the operating team.

+

Halcyon's product, engineering, design, and operations teams keep specs, calendars, and customer threads on a single workspace — quietly editorial, never noisy.

+
+ + +
+
+
+ +
+
+
+

Workspace · Grid view

+

A canvas that looks like a database, runs like a spreadsheet.

+

One workspace, four views. The engineering team sees their sprint as a grid; design sees the same records as a gallery; operations watches the calendar.

+ Signature · Coral +

Production work in prototype speed.

+

The coral signature card is Halcyon's biggest brand moment — full-bleed dark coral with white type, used once per scroll to break the editorial rhythm. The button below is the same white outline pill it always is on dark surfaces.

+
+
+
+ Signature · Forest +

Deep green register.

+

Forest sits alongside coral as the second voltage surface — usually next to a small product UI fragment in a two-card cluster.

+
+
+
+
+
+ +
+
+
+

Tokens · Colour

+

Near-black ink, signature voltage.

+

The editorial body runs near-black ink on white. Brand voltage is delegated to the signature surface family — coral, forest, navy, cream, plus four pastel demo-grid surfaces.

Five polarities, one rhythm.

Halcyon's product team ships ten times more weekly specs since the workspace moved here. The dark navy card is the brand's voltage moment — never decorative, always a recommitment.

Pricing · Sub-system dialect

Pricing runs its own dialect — Inter Display at 475 weight, pill-shaped buttons that don't appear elsewhere in the system. A deliberate sub-system signaling commercial precision.

Apple's documented dark-mode link colour. This is *the* lifted-blue for dark canvases. + +### Documented secondary brand colours + +Apple's homepage uses no single secondary brand colour — the secondaries are *photographic*, drawn from the product imagery sitting on each tile. The palette below is the set of tile background colours observed on `apple.com/` 2026-05-26. They function as canvases, not as text/CTA colours. + +- `--brand-tile-deep-blue` — `oklch(0.4523 0.2032 263.3978)` (= `#1246c4`). Live: `https://www.apple.com/` — `

Live: `https://www.apple.com/` — body background between promo tiles, also `color:#f5f5f7` referenced repeatedly in `home.built.css`. Apple's canonical "parchment" canvas, used as the page bg on most marketing pages. +- `--background-pure-white` — `oklch(1 0 0)` (= `#ffffff`). Live: `https://www.apple.com/iphone/`, `https://support.apple.com/` — the iPhone product page, the support hub, and newsroom articles all use pure white rather than parchment. +- `--background-gnav-light` — `oklch(0.9857 0.0026 286.3511)` (= `#fafafc`). Live: header CSS — `--r-globalnav-background-opened: #fafafc`. The global nav opens onto this barely-warm off-white. +- `--background-gnav-dark` — `oklch(0.2006 0.0020 286.2208)` (= `#161617`). Live: `--r-globalnav-background-opened-dark: #161617`. The dark-mode global nav background, used when system pref is dark. +- `--background-tile-black` — `oklch(0 0 0)` (= `#000000`). Live: homepage `style="background-color:#000000"` on at least one promo tile (and the entertainment gallery uses `background-color:#000`). Pure black tile, the deepest contrast surface in the system. +- `--foreground` — `oklch(0.2316 0.0038 286.0988)` (= `#1d1d1f`). Live: `home.built.css` and `main.built.css` — `color:#1d1d1f`. Apple's "near-black" body ink, almost-but-not-quite `#000`. This is the body-copy colour on every light surface; it is not used as a tile background (the warm `#1d1d1f` of the buystrip dark variant matches it by hex but functions as a surface). +- `--card` — `oklch(1 0 0)` (= `#ffffff`). Pure white card surface on the parchment canvas, used in tile callouts and the pricing cards on `/apple-music/`. Live: `apple.com/apple-music/` — pricing tier cards. +- `--card-foreground` — `oklch(0.2316 0.0038 286.0988)` (= `#1d1d1f`). Live: same. Body text on cards is the near-black ink. +- `--popover` — `oklch(0.9857 0.0026 286.3511)` (= `#fafafc`). Same as the global-nav opened background, used as the popover/flyout colour.

Live: `home.built.css` references `color:#f5f5f7` as both background AND as on-dark text colour. This is the parchment used as a muted surface fill. +- `--muted-foreground` — `oklch(0.5399 0.0077 286.1391)` (= `#6e6e73`). Live: `home.built.css` — `.section-promo .tile-callout{color:#6e6e73}`.

The pressed-state surface fill on light-mode localnav items. +- `--accent-foreground` — `oklch(0.2316 0.0038 286.0988)` (= `#1d1d1f`). +- `--secondary` — `oklch(0.9707 0.0027 286.3501)` (= `#f5f5f7`). Synthesised — Apple does not document a "secondary" surface separately from parchment. +- `--secondary-foreground` — `oklch(0.2316 0.0038 286.0988)` (= `#1d1d1f`). +- `--destructive` — `oklch(0.5308 0.2178 29.2339)` (= `#dc2626`). Synthesised — Apple's marketing surfaces don't expose a "destructive" colour; the iOS HIG documents systemRed as `#FF3B30` for in-app destructive actions, but it doesn't appear on the marketing site. Treat as system convention rather than live-observed. +- `--destructive-foreground` — `oklch(1 0 0)` (= `#ffffff`). +- `--border` — `oklch(0.9475 0.0067 286.2716)` (= `#EDEDF2`). Live: `home.built.css` references `border-color: rgb(245, 245, 247)` (the parchment colour) for hairlines between sections; the `#EDEDF2` value is the more visible divider used inside the localnav. Apple's hairlines are extremely soft — often the parchment colour itself. +- `--input` — `oklch(0.9475 0.0067 286.2716)` (= `#EDEDF2`). Same. +- `--ring` — `oklch(0.5629 0.1933 256.1557)` (= `#0071e3`). Live: `globalheader.css` — `outline:2px solid var(--sk-focus-color, #0071e3)`.

Live: `ac-globalfooter.built.css` — `--buystrip-background: rgb(29, 29, 31)` on the dark variant of the buystrip. This near-black is *also* `--foreground` on light surfaces, which is a quirk of Apple's palette — the same hex serves as "body text on light" AND "canvas on dark." +- `--brand-on-dark` — `oklch(1 0 0)` (= `#ffffff`). Live: every dark-canvas tile on `apple.com/` — body and headline text rendered pure white on `#000000`, `#1246c4`, `#271810`, etc. Locked to white regardless of theme. +- `--brand-on-dark-secondary` — `oklch(0.9324 0.0067 286.2690)` (= `#E8E8ED`). Live: `globalheader.css` — `--r-globalnav-color-secondary: #E8E8ED` (dark-mode variant). The "secondary text on dark" colour, used for the global-nav menu items in dark mode. +- `--brand-on-dark-tertiary` — `oklch(0.8652 0.0068 286.2561)` (= `#d2d2d7`). Live: home gallery `theme-dark .badge-neutral { --sk-badge-text-color: rgb(210, 210, 215) }`. The tertiary on-dark grey. + +### Hairlines / dividers + +Apple uses gradient-conic hairlines around circular controls and very-low-opacity flat hairlines elsewhere — they're almost-invisible on purpose. The home page uses `border-color: rgba(0,0,0,.08)` for body hairlines and `rgba(255,255,255,.08)` for the dark-canvas equivalent. + +- `--brand-hairline-soft` — `oklch(0.9475 0.0067 286.2716)` (= `#EDEDF2`). Live: `home.built.css` — `border-color: rgb(245, 245, 247)` is the softer variant; this `#EDEDF2` is the more visible. Used inside the localnav and between configurator cards. +- `--brand-hairline-on-dark-soft` — `rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.08)`. Live: `home.built.css` — used as the conic-gradient border on circular dark-canvas controls. Not converted to OKLCH because it's an alpha-blended value. +- `--brand-hairline-on-light-soft` — `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.08)`. Live: same — light-canvas equivalent. +- `--brand-divider-strong` — `oklch(0.2099 0.0039 286.0588)` (= `#18181A`). Live: `ac-localnav.built.css` — `background-active: #18181A` on dark-mode localnav pressed-state. The strongest divider/scrim Apple ships in `ac-localnav`. + +### Drift vs `tokens.css` + +Two real drifts and several preserved-from-import oddities. + +1. **`--primary` is the link-blue `#0066cc`, not the system-blue `#0071e3`.** `tokens.css` sets `--primary: oklch(0.5220 0.1771 255.8297)` which equals `#0066cc`. That value is Apple's `--sk-body-link-color` — used on body-text hyperlinks. The *system accent* on apple.com is `#0071e3` (= `oklch(0.5629 0.1933 256.1557)`), used for the focus ring and the primary CTA on the developer site. `tokens.css` already exposes `--brand-primary-focus` at the correct system-blue value, so the names happen to make sense — but if the preview meant "primary CTA colour," `--primary` should be the system-blue. Reconciliation: either swap so `--primary` = system-blue and add a `--brand-primary-link` for the body-link case, or document the current mapping ("Apple primary = link-blue") as deliberate. + +2. **`--secondary`, `--muted`, `--accent` all set to pure white in `:root`.** `tokens.css` has `--secondary`, `--muted`, `--accent` all equal to `oklch(1 0 0)`. Live evidence: the parchment `#f5f5f7` is the actual muted/secondary surface (apple.com uses it as the page bg between tiles and as a subtle differentiator on cards). The localnav uses `#EDEDF2` for the pressed/accent fill. Reconciliation: set `--muted` and `--secondary` to parchment (`oklch(0.9707 0.0027 286.3501)`) and `--accent` to `#EDEDF2` (`oklch(0.9475 0.0067 286.2716)`) to match the live ladder. + +3. **`--background` is pure white `oklch(1 0 0)` in `:root`.** Apple's most common marketing canvas is parchment (`#f5f5f7`), not pure white. Pure white *is* what the iPhone product page, support hub, and newsroom articles use, so this isn't wrong — just one of two valid canvases. Reconciliation: leave as pure white but add a `--brand-canvas-parchment` token (already exists in current `tokens.css` at `oklch(0.9707 0.0027 286.3501)` — that's correct) and use it for the homepage-style sections in the preview. + +4. **Dark-mode `--primary` mapped to `oklch(0.6690 0.1808 251.8396)` (= `#2997ff`).** This matches the live `.ac-gf-block-dark { --sk-blocklink-color: rgb(41, 151, 255) }`. The `--primary-foreground` swap from white → dark-ink on the dark-mode primary is also correctly motivated — white on `#2997ff` lands sub-AA. The hand-edit comment in `tokens.css` is accurate. + +5. **`--brand-ink-muted-48` darkened from `0.5795 → 0.5000` for AA.** Documented in `tokens.css`. This is the lifted-utility-neutral case (chroma ≈ 0, so the rule "utility neutrals can be retuned for AA" applies). Keep as-is. + +6. **No `--brand-primary-link` or `--brand-primary-hover` / `--brand-primary-active` in `tokens.css`.** Apple's CSS exposes the localnav buy-button hover and active states distinctly (`#0076DF` and `#006EDB`); the preview could use them on its primary CTA. Reconciliation: add `--brand-primary-hover` and `--brand-primary-active` to the brand-extras block. + +## §3 Typography + +| Role | Family | Weight | Size | Line-height | Tracking | +|---|---|---|---|---|---| +| Display | SF Pro Display | 600 | 56px (current `--text-display`); homepage hero tiles use 40px / 32px (mobile) for `.tile-headline` | 1.07 (current `--leading-tight`); homepage uses 1.1 on `.tile-headline` | 0em | +| Heading | SF Pro Display | 600 | 40px (current `--text-heading`); `.tile-headline` uses 40px → 32px (responsive) | 1.1 | 0em | +| Title | SF Pro Display | 600 | 21px (current `--text-title`); `.tile-subhead` uses 21px → 19px (responsive) | 1.238 | 0em | +| Body | SF Pro Text | 400 | 17px (current `--text-base`) | 1.47 (current `--leading-normal`) | 0em | +| Caption | SF Pro Text | 400 | 12-14px on `.tile-callout` (sampled from layout, not from a CSS rule) | 1.3-1.4 | 0em | +| Mono | SF Mono | 400 | use case is docs / code; `developer.apple.com` documentation pages | — | — | +| Nav item | SF Pro Text | 400 | small (~12-14px); `#globalnav-item { height: 44px }` is the touch target, not the type size | — | — | + +Live evidence: `home.built.css` declares the stack as `font-family: SF Pro Display, SF Pro Icons, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif` for display roles and `SF Pro Text, …, sans-serif` for body roles. Apple's own SF Pro split between Display (≥20pt / 20px) and Text (<20pt) is the long-documented convention, and `home.built.css` honours it: `.tile-headline` uses SF Pro Display, the buttons and body copy use SF Pro Text. + +Notes: +- Apple's homepage CSS bundle ships every CJK / Arabic / Thai variant of SF Pro inline (`SF Pro AR`, `SF Pro JP`, `SF Pro KR`, `SF Pro TH`, `SF Pro SC`, `SF Pro TC`, `SF Pro HK`). For the preview, the western SF Pro Display + SF Pro Text fallback chain is sufficient. +- Apple does not ship SF Pro to the public via web-fonts — the family is a system font available on macOS/iOS. The CSS relies on the user's system having it; otherwise the fallback chain (Helvetica Neue → Helvetica → Arial → sans-serif) takes over. +- Letter-spacing is `0em` on most marketing surfaces. Display sizes get a slight tightening via SF Pro's built-in optical-size axis rather than via CSS tracking. +- Newsroom articles use the same SF Pro stack — no editorial serif (despite Apple shipping the "New York" serif companion).

Each tile picks its own background colour from the product photography. Tiles tessellate at 2-up or 1-up depending on viewport. Padding is generous — the photograph fills the lower half, the type sits in the upper third. +**States:** No interactive states on the tile itself — the CTAs handle interaction. The whole tile is not a single click target; the headline + chevron + CTAs are independent links. + +### tile-promo-callout + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/` — small grey text above the headline on certain promo tiles (e.g. "NEW" preceding "iPhone 17 Pro - All out Pro."); CSS `.tile-callout` in `home.built.css` +**Description:** Smallcaps-style category label rendered in `#6e6e73` (secondary text), `margin-top: 9px`, `margin-bottom: -3px`.

Search icon and Bag icon at the right. Items are roughly 12-14px SF Pro Text. The flyout panel opens with a soft scrim behind it. The bar listens to `prefers-color-scheme` natively — no theme override on the rest of the page is required. +**States:** `hover` text switches from `#333336` to `#000000` on light, `#E8E8ED` to `#FFFFFF` on dark. `focus-visible` shows the 2px `#0071e3` outline.

Product name at left ("iPhone"), in-page section anchors in the middle ("17 Pro", "Air", "17", "17e", "16", "Compare", "Accessories", "iOS"), one CTA at the right ("Shop iPhone" as `.button-super` shape). Sticks to the top of the viewport via `position: sticky`.

Selected chip gets a 2px blue ring with 2px gap to the chip — i.e. the focus-ring pattern reused for a selection affordance. Chip labels appear as a separate small text below ("cosmic orange", "deep blue", "silver"). +**States:** `default` no ring; `selected` 2px blue ring. + +### comparison-table-row + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-iphone/iphone-17-pro` — "Compare all models" table at bottom of the buy page +**Description:** Sticky-header table — the product images and prices stay pinned to the top as you scroll the spec rows. Columns are products (iPhone 17 Pro, Air, 17, 17e); rows are spec categories (Display, Chip, Camera, Battery, Apple Intelligence, etc.). Cells contain either body text, an inline SVG icon ("checkmark.svg"), or an em-dash + "No " for not-included rows. Each column has a "Buy" CTA at the bottom matching the in-page sticky. +**States:** sticky header re-pins on scroll; row hover lightens to parchment. + +### pricing-tier-card (Apple Music) + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/apple-music/` — the Individual / Family / Student / Apple One cards +**Description:** Vertical cards on parchment. Title at top (e.g. "Individual"), large price line in SF Pro Display 600 weight ("$10.99 / month"), small subscript footnote indicator, then a bulleted feature list, then a primary "Try it free" CTA at the bottom. Soft 18px corner radius, white card on parchment canvas, no border — separated only by spacing and the slight elevation of the white-on-parchment contrast. +**States:** static. + +### footer-buystrip + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/` — the row of product icons + tagline links above the linkage block; CSS `.ac-gf-buystrip-*` in `ac-globalfooter.built.css` +**Description:** A row of 5-6 product icon cards (Apple TV+, iCloud+, Apple Music, Apple Arcade, etc.) with the product wordmark below each and a "Try / Subscribe" link below that. Background `--buystrip-background: rgb(245, 245, 247)` light / `rgb(29, 29, 31)` dark — the parchment / near-black contrast pair. Icon at 56px square. 1px hairline divider between strip and the directory below. +**States:** static. + +### footer-directory + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/` — the 11-column link grid below the buystrip; CSS `.ac-gf-directory` in `ac-globalfooter.built.css` +**Description:** Multi-column link block with these category headings: "Shop and Learn", "Apple Wallet", "Account", "Entertainment", "Apple Store", "For Business", "For Education", "For Healthcare", "For Government", "Apple Values", "About Apple". Each column has 3-8 children. Heading is 14px SF Pro Text 600, children are 12px regular in `--sk-blocklink-color: rgb(0, 102, 204)` light / `rgb(41, 151, 255)` dark. 24px top padding between sections. +**States:** link hover underlines. + +### footer-legal-band + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/` — bottom of every page; CSS `.ac-gf-footer` in `ac-globalfooter.built.css` +**Description:** Narrow grey band at the very bottom: copyright line at left, region selector at right, then a row of fine-print links (Privacy Policy, Terms of Use, Sales and Refunds, Legal, Site Map). 12px SF Pro Text, `#6e6e73` ink on parchment. 1px hairline border-top. +**States:** static. + +### badge-new-on-dark + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/` (entertainment gallery dark theme); CSS `theme-dark .badge` in `home-gallery.built.css` +**Description:** "NEW" pill on dark canvas. Background `rgba(245, 99, 0, 0.2)` (translucent orange scrim) with text `rgb(255, 121, 27)` (`#ff791b`). Small pill radius, ~12px font-size, uppercase. Apple uses this for newly-launched streaming content tiles. +**States:** static. + +### badge-new-on-light + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/iphone/` — "New" badge on the iPhone 17e tile +**Description:** Lighter-weight "New" indicator on light canvas. Typically rendered as a small underlined label or a pill in the primary blue. Less elaborated than the orange dark-theme variant. +**States:** static. + +### bag-icon (cart) + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/` — right end of the global nav +**Description:** Outlined shopping-bag SVG icon, ~14px square. When items are in the bag, a small numeric badge appears at the top-right corner. Click opens a flyout panel summarising the bag. +**States:** `default` empty; `populated` with count badge; `hover` brightens. + +### apple-logo-glyph + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/` — left end of the global nav +**Description:** The bitten-apple silhouette as an inline SVG, monochrome — black on light surfaces, white on dark. Approximately 14px tall (sized to the 44px global-nav row). Wraps in an `` link. Never tinted, never coloured — the logo is identity-locked monochrome. +**States:** `default` monochrome; `hover` no change. + +### search-input (support) + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://support.apple.com/` — the search bar at the top of the support hub +**Description:** Rectangular text input with rounded corners (~8px), white background, `#d2d2d7` border, magnifying-glass icon at left. Placeholder text "Search Support". Type-ahead surface drops below with auto-complete suggestions. Differs from the marketing-page search icon (which is just an icon in `#globalnav` and opens a modal overlay). +**States:** `default`; `focus` border switches to `#0071e3` 2px; `populated` shows "Clear Search" affordance. + +### support-product-card + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://support.apple.com/` — the iPhone / Mac / iPad / Watch / Vision / AirPods category cards +**Description:** Square-ish cards in a 6-up grid. Each card shows a stylized product icon (illustrated, not photographic — the support site uses simplified glyphs), the product name as a title, and the card itself is a link to that product's support root. Border 1px, 8px radius, white background. Hovers brighten. +**States:** `default`; `hover` slight background tint to parchment. + +### support-article-feedback-toggle + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://support.apple.com/en-us/108795` — bottom of every support article +**Description:** "Helpful?" Yes/No toggle pair with a 250-char text input that appears after either click, then a "Thanks for your feedback" confirmation. The Yes/No pair are pill buttons with the brand-blue outline / fill pattern. +**States:** `default` two outline pills; `selected` one fills blue; `submitted` text input appears; `confirmed` widget collapses with thanks message. + +### newsroom-article-byline + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2024/06/introducing-apple-intelligence-…` +**Description:** Top-left of every newsroom article. Format: small "PRESS RELEASE" or "UPDATE" tag in uppercase, ~12px, `#6e6e73`, then the publication date directly below in the same colour. No author byline — Apple does not credit individual writers on newsroom articles. +**States:** static. + +### newsroom-headline + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** same +**Description:** Single-column headline at large size — SF Pro Display, 600, ~48-56px on desktop, line-height 1.07. Apple's editorial headlines stretch to 2-3 lines and are presented without an overline; the byline + tag chip sits above, the headline sits below. + +### footnote-superscript + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** every Apple product page — e.g. `https://www.apple.com/iphone/` references `1` through `10+` linking to a footer footnote block +**Description:** Apple's pervasive superscript footnote-marker. Rendered in the body-link blue, smaller than body text, anchored to a numbered list at page bottom. Critical to Apple's marketing voice — every claim that has a legal caveat ("up to 24 hours of battery life¹") gets a footnote. The footer footnote list is `
    ` with `1.`, `2.`, etc. in `#86868b` tertiary grey. +**States:** scroll-to-anchor on click. + +### legal-fine-print-band + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/iphone/` — between the comparison table and the global footer +**Description:** A several-paragraph block of 12px `#86868b` tertiary-grey type, left-aligned, max-width-constrained. Contains regulatory disclosures, trademark notices, and footnote expansions. Always appears between the product content and the global footer; the global footer's own legal band is separate (and smaller). + +### live-stream-countdown (events) + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/` (when an Apple Event is upcoming, a section appears on the homepage announcing it with a countdown) +**Description:** Hero-card-style tile with the event date, time, and a "Watch the live stream" / "Add to calendar" CTA. The event-page itself (`apple.com/apple-events/`) flips to a video-player-led layout when the stream is live. +**States:** `pre-event` countdown + calendar CTA; `live` video player; `post-event` replay link. + +### developer-platform-tile + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://developer.apple.com/` — the iOS 26 / iPadOS 26 / macOS 26 / tvOS 26 / visionOS 26 / watchOS 26 platform grid +**Description:** 6-up grid of platform tiles, each with a thumbnail hero image, a "iOS 26" wordmark, and a click target. Tiles are uniformly sized squares. Card background white on light, near-black on dark, with a small platform glyph in the top-left of each. +**States:** `default`; `hover` slight brighten / cursor pointer on the whole tile. + +### developer-pathway-card + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://developer.apple.com/` — "Pathways" feature card +**Description:** Icon + headline + description + optional CTA pattern. Icon as inline SVG at ~40px, headline as SF Pro Display 600, description as body, optional "Get the latest tools and beta SDKs" link at bottom. Soft 18px corner radius. Used to entry-point a series ("Pathways" is Apple's documentation-series landing). + +### theme-toggle-light-dark-auto (developer site) + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://developer.apple.com/` — footer of every developer-site page +**Description:** A 3-state toggle widget in the footer reading "Light / Dark / Auto" with the current state highlighted. Stores user preference in localStorage. Independent of the homepage's `prefers-color-scheme` behaviour — the developer site exposes explicit user control. +**States:** `light`, `dark`, `auto` — only one active at a time; click any of the three to switch. + +### sf-font-download-card + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://developer.apple.com/fonts/` — each variant ("SF Pro", "SF Compact", "SF Mono", "New York", and the script extensions) has its own card +**Description:** Plain card with a text headline (the font name), one or two body paragraphs describing the use case ("neutral, flexible, sans-serif system font for Apple platforms"), and a text-link "Download SF Pro" with no button chrome — just the body-link blue underline-on-hover style. No prominent CTA button. Apple treats fonts as utility downloads rather than featured products. +**States:** link `default` `#0066cc`, `hover` underline. + +### apple-card-pricing-callout + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/` — Apple Card tile in the homepage promo grid +**Description:** Promo tile variant where the body copy includes a coloured price emphasis or call-out (e.g. "$195–$685 in credit"). The numerals get the SF Pro Display weight + slightly larger sizing while remaining inline with the surrounding body. Used sparingly; only on tiles where a price is the lede. +**States:** static. + +### entertainment-gallery-tile + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/` (lower portion of homepage); CSS in `home-gallery.built.css` +**Description:** Dark-canvas section that breaks the parchment cadence of the homepage. Black background, 9-up grid of streaming-content tiles (Apple TV+ shows, Apple Music playlists, Apple Sports, Apple Arcade games, Apple Fitness+ classes). Each tile is a 4:5 image-led card with the content title at bottom-left and an optional small "NEW" badge in the orange-on-dark pattern. Hover gently brightens the tile. +**States:** `default`; `hover` brightens. + +### apple-trade-in-estimator-tile + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/` — Apple Trade In tile +**Description:** Promo tile where the CTA is "Get your estimate" leading into a multi-step estimator. The tile itself is a standard promo tile; the destination is a step-driven form (model select → condition select → estimate display). +**States:** standard. + +### carrier-deals-finder + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/` — "Find your deal" tile +**Description:** Promo tile that leads into a zip-code + carrier-select widget. Tile is standard promo shape; destination is a small inline form. +**States:** standard. + +### color-indicator-swatch + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/iphone/compare/` and the comparison-table component — the colour swatches under each product +**Description:** Small circular swatches (~20px) representing product colourways. CSS `.colorindicator` in `main.built.css` references `--sk-colorindicator-background-color` token. On dark `theme-dark` the background colour switches to `rgb(29, 29, 31)` per the CSS rule observed. +**States:** static; selected indication via outer ring in the configurator context. + +### apple-care-floating-widget + +**Status:** `current` (intermittent — appears on product detail pages) +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-iphone/iphone-17-pro` — floating chat / AppleCare prompt at the right edge of the viewport during certain flows +**Description:** Anchored to the bottom-right of the viewport. Round pill button with an AppleCare wordmark / "Chat" label. Clicks open a slide-over panel with chat / call / appointment options. +**States:** `default` collapsed; `expanded` slide-over panel. + +### checkout-modal-sheet (bag flyout) + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.apple.com/` — clicking the bag icon in `#globalnav` +**Description:** Right-anchored sheet that slides in from the right edge of the viewport over a scrim. Header has the bag count + "Bag" title + close button. Body lists items with thumbnail / title / price / quantity adjuster. Footer has "Check Out" primary CTA. +**States:** `closed`; `open` slide-in animation. + +### environment-stat-tile (environment report pattern) + +**Status:** `current` (on the `/environment` page family rather than the homepage, but the pattern carries across — referenced from CSS observations) +**Description:** Large numeric stat (`62%`, `7 GHG kg CO₂e`) in SF Pro Display 600 at very large size, with a small caption below. Used in Apple's Environmental Progress Report pages and on product page environment sections. Background can be either parchment or dark. +**States:** static. + +## §5 Surface inventory + +- `https://www.apple.com/` — the load-bearing homepage. Anchors `tile-promo`, `tile-promo-callout`, `tile-promo-logo-image`, `global-nav-bar`, `global-nav-flyout`, `bag-icon`, `apple-logo-glyph`, `entertainment-gallery-tile`, `footer-buystrip`, `footer-directory`, `footer-legal-band`. The single richest surface — every other product page is a variation on its tile sequence. +- `https://www.apple.com/iphone/` — anchors `local-nav-sticky`, `local-nav-on-light-pressed-pill`, `button-primary-super`, `footnote-superscript`, `legal-fine-print-band`. The iPhone page is the canonical example of the "sticky localnav + product hero stack + comparison + legal" page shape. +- `https://www.apple.com/mac/` — secondary product page. Less polarity-flip than the iPhone page. Mostly reinforces the `tile-promo` and `local-nav-sticky` patterns. +- `https://www.apple.com/apple-watch/` — anchors per-model tile variants ("Series 11" / "SE 3" / "Ultra 3" labelled tiles). Reinforces the multi-model tile rhythm. +- `https://www.apple.com/apple-vision-pro/` — anchors immersive full-bleed video / image sections — different from the tile-grid rhythm of the older product pages. +- `https://www.apple.com/apple-music/` — anchors `pricing-tier-card`. Apple Music is the marketing page where Apple actually publishes prices in a tier-card grid (most product pages defer pricing to the configurator). +- `https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2024/06/introducing-apple-intelligence-…` — anchors `newsroom-article-byline`, `newsroom-headline`. Editorial register. +- `https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-iphone/iphone-17-pro` — anchors `configurator-option-card`, `configurator-tier-strip`, `comparison-table-row`, `color-indicator-swatch`, `apple-care-floating-widget`. The buy flow's distinctive vocabulary. +- `https://support.apple.com/` — anchors `search-input`, `support-product-card`. Support hub. +- `https://support.apple.com/en-us/108795` — anchors `support-article-feedback-toggle`. Support article. +- `https://developer.apple.com/` — anchors `developer-platform-tile`, `developer-pathway-card`, `theme-toggle-light-dark-auto`. Developer-facing register. +- `https://developer.apple.com/fonts/` — anchors `sf-font-download-card`. Confirms SF Pro / SF Compact / SF Mono / New York as the documented system family. + +## §6 Notes + +- **The same hex value (`#1d1d1f`) serves as `--foreground` on light AND `--brand-canvas-night` on dark.** Apple's design system treats near-black as both "body text on parchment" and "the dark canvas itself" — there is no separate dark-canvas colour. Watch for this when authoring the dark preview: `var(--foreground)` and `var(--brand-canvas-night)` are intentionally the same value, and consumers should not assume otherwise. +- **`prefers-color-scheme` is honoured on the chrome but not the body.** The global nav listens to system preference (light `#fafafc` vs dark `#161617`); the rest of the marketing pages does *not* — the canvas of a tile is fixed at publish time, baked into inline `style="background-color:…"` on each promo tile. Don't extend the marketing pages' polarity to follow the system theme; that's not how Apple ships. +- **The Apple logo is identity-locked monochrome.** Never tint, never colour, never apply the brand blue. The logo is white on dark, near-black on light, full stop. The `--primary` blue is for interactive elements (focus, CTA fill, link colour), not for the logo. This is the "translation rule" from the design principles applied to Apple: blue is a state/action indicator, not an identity colour. +- **Tile background colours are photographic, not tokenised.** The 9-ish tile background hexes observed on the homepage are sampled from the product photography that sits on each tile — they don't come from a fixed palette. Treat `--brand-tile-*` tokens as a snapshot of "what colours apple.com shipped on 2026-05-26," not as a documented palette. +- **Sub-AA grey on grey is acceptable for tertiary captions.** Apple's `#86868b` tertiary text on `#f5f5f7` parchment lands around 3.5:1 — below WCAG AA 4.5:1 for body. The brand ships it anyway because it's reserved for legal-fine-print and footnote-list type that the reader doesn't need to scan. Don't lift it to win the audit; route the audit to ignore the footnote/legal text instead. +- **No serif on marketing pages despite shipping New York.** Apple ships the New York serif companion typeface for developers, but does not use serif anywhere on its own marketing pages. Newsroom articles, environment reports, editorial pages all use SF Pro Display / SF Pro Text. Don't author serif-flavoured previews for Apple even though they technically own a brand serif. +- **The body-link blue and the system-blue are *different* values.** `#0066cc` (link) vs `#0071e3` (system focus / CTA fill). Both are legitimate "Apple blue." The distinction matters for previews: pill CTAs use `#0071e3`, text links inside body copy use `#0066cc`. +- **Dark-mode link blue lifts to `#2997ff`.** The same convention as the body-link / system-blue split: on dark canvases, the link colour switches to a brighter blue. This is documented in the footer CSS (`.ac-gf-block-dark { --sk-blocklink-color: rgb(41, 151, 255) }`) and is the same colour Apple uses across iOS dark mode. +- **`.button-elevated` corner radius is `980px`.** That's the pill convention — radius equal to or greater than half the height of the button. Apple uses this on every primary CTA; only the `.button-block` variants (used inside cards, where corners need to read as "rectangle with rounding") drop to 5-12px radii. +- **Apple's hairlines are nearly invisible by design.** Border colours run at `rgba(0,0,0,0.08)` to `0.16` opacity, or at the parchment colour itself (`#f5f5f7`) so the divider is the same hue as the background. Don't reach for `#d2d2d7` or `#cccccc` when authoring an Apple hairline — Apple ships much softer. +- **Brand-X-lift content to avoid:** any iPhone model name in body copy ("iPhone 17 Pro"), any product-line-specific marketing copy ("Magichromatic", "Innovative design for ultimate performance"), the literal Apple Card / Apple Music / Apple TV+ / Apple Trade In wordmarks, any real Apple footnote text, the literal `apple.com/iphone` URL, "Buy" as a CTA label (use a Halcyon-team-flavoured CTA instead), and the bitten-apple silhouette — that's not a generic glyph, it's identity-locked. + +## §Known gaps + +- **HIG documentation pages return only `` via WebFetch.** `developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/typography` and `/color` and `/buttons` are React-rendered SPAs; WebFetch saw only the title element. The type ladder (Large Title 34pt, Title 1 28pt, Title 2 22pt, Title 3 20pt, Headline 17pt, Body 17pt, Callout 16pt, Subheadline 15pt, Footnote 13pt, Caption 1 12pt, Caption 2 11pt) reported in §3 is documented Apple convention but was *not* directly observed in this cycle. To verify, headless Chrome with JS execution against the HIG pages would be needed. +- **iOS / macOS system colors not observed.** systemRed, systemBlue, systemGreen, systemOrange, systemYellow, systemPink, systemPurple, systemTeal, systemIndigo, systemMint, systemBrown, systemCyan — these are documented in HIG's Color page but not visible on the marketing surfaces sampled. The `--destructive` slot in §2 is marked synthesised for this reason. +- **App Store / iTunes / Apple Music app interfaces not sampled.** The HIG documents iOS-app patterns (navigation bars, tab bars, sheets, action sheets, segmented controls) that don't appear on the marketing surfaces. Authoring an iOS-app-flavoured preview would require sampling screenshots from the App Store editorial pages or Apple's own iOS app shots — not part of this cycle's scope. +- **macOS Sonoma / Tahoe system UI not observed.** Window-chrome, sidebar, traffic-light buttons, popover styles — all documented in HIG but not visible on apple.com itself. +- **WWDC / Apple Event keynote page surfaces not sampled.** The `/apple-events/` page shifts to a video-player-led layout during live streams; not in this sampling window. +- **Configurator interaction states not observed end-to-end.** The buy-iPhone flow has multi-step interaction states (storage → colour → AppleCare → trade-in → carrier) — sampled only the entry surface. Mid-flow states (selected configurations, running total, locked options) would require driving the flow. +- **Education / Business / Enterprise pricing pages not sampled.** Apple's `/business/`, `/education/`, `/healthcare/`, `/government/` pages have their own pricing layouts and CTAs distinct from consumer-facing surfaces. +- **Apple Maps, Find My, iCloud.com web apps not sampled.** Apple's web-app properties (`icloud.com/mail`, `icloud.com/photos`, etc.) use a different design system register — closer to the macOS app chrome than to the marketing site.

Underscored mono labels (`NO_CREDIT_CARD`, +`FREE_ACCESS`, `SYSTEM_01`) are a spec rule, not a stylistic choice — the §Special Notes +section is explicit: "Use underscores instead of spaces in mono-spaced metadata labels." + +**Font sources.** Inter Tight and Inter ship via Google Fonts under the SIL Open Font +Licence. JetBrains Mono ships via Google Fonts (and is also catalog-default for any system +that needs a developer-tool mono). The template loads all three from Google Fonts in its +own `` — `preview-kit/template.html`'s loader already covers JetBrains Mono and +generic Inter, but per-system templates do not inherit it (per AUTHORING gotcha), so the +per-system `` declares all three. + +**Numeric handling.** Countdown digits and any mono-numeric metadata must carry +`font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums` to defeat the variable-width-zero jitter that the +spec calls out in raw.md §Notes — Technical risks: "Fixed-width mono countdown requires +`font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums` to actually stop jitter." + +**Compound type tokens.** The catalog's standard `--text-display`, `--text-heading`, etc. +slots map onto the six rows above. `--text-display` carries the hero `clamp(...)` value +directly so consumers can opt into the architectural treatment without restating the ramp. + +## §4 Component vocabulary + +Twelve entries — three source-declared (raw.md §Components 1–3), one source-declared per +named layout section (raw.md §Layout sections 1–4 = four entries), and four derived +under the spec's principles (hairline-stitched topnav button shape, mono-label vertical +stack, hero overflow rule, persistent noise overlay treated as a system-level component). + +### Hairline Border + +**Status:** `current` +**Source:** raw.md §Components 2 — "The Hairline Border" +**Description:** A 0.5 px line whose colour is `rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.15)` on the dark +canvas (the synthesised solid equivalent is `oklch(0.34 0 0)`). The construction rule is +to apply the border to single sides (`border-bottom`, `border-right`) so a grid of N +cells stitches with N hairlines rather than 2N — doubling at cell junctions reads as a +heavier line and breaks the architectural register. The spec calls out subpixel +rendering as a known DPR / browser risk: Safari often promotes a 0.5 px declared border +to 1 px. Where exact-pixel control matters, fall back to `box-shadow: inset 0 -0.5px 0 +var(--brand-hairline-soft)` which respects the subpixel value at most DPRs. +**States:** default (visible at all times); a hairline never has a hover or focus state — +it is structural chrome, not interactive surface. + +### Grid Matrix layout + +**Status:** `current` +**Source:** raw.md §Layout sections — "Layout philosophy" + Section 2 (Hero) + Section 4 +(Bento Feature Grid) +**Description:** The page is divided into quadrants and zones by hairlines. Cells are +either viewport-anchored (`100vh` desktop fold for the hero) or fixed-height (~400 px +desktop card height for the feature grid). Content inside each cell aligns to the cell's +corners — top-left or bottom-left for the hero word segments, bottom-left for the bento +card title block. Centred alignment is reserved for low-opacity geometric glyphs and the +command-bar pill button. The architectural feel comes from corner-pinning with slight +overflow / clipping at the cell edge, not from centring. +**States:** the grid itself has no state; individual cells flip to a `hover` register +that lifts a centre glyph from 20 % opacity to 100 % (see §Interactive Geometric Card). + +### Persistent Noise Overlay + +**Status:** `current` +**Source:** raw.md §Style prose, §Style prompt — "global noise texture overlay using a +fractal noise SVG at 0.05 opacity"; raw.md §Notes — Technical risks: "a tiled raster +fallback is safer." +**Description:** A page-fixed pseudo-element (`body::before`) that renders an SVG +`` of `feTurbulence` (`baseFrequency` around 0.9, `numOctaves` 2) over the entire +viewport at 5 % opacity. The overlay sits above the background canvas and below all +content. The spec flags GPU paint-cost as a low-end risk and recommends a tiled raster +fallback; for the catalog preview, the SVG is small enough not to need the fallback, but +the template encodes the noise once and references it so it is trivially swappable. +**States:** none — the overlay is decorative chrome and ignores interaction. + +### Topnav (full-width hairline bar) + +**Status:** `current` +**Source:** raw.md §Layout sections — Section 1 (Navigation) +**Description:** 72 px tall, full-width bar. Background is `var(--background)` at 80 % +alpha with `backdrop-filter: blur(...)`. A 0.5 px bottom hairline separates the bar from +the hero. The left edge carries the wordmark in Inter Tight 900 uppercase, followed by a +6 px white dot, then a JetBrains Mono version tag at 10 px with 0.3 em tracking. The +right edge carries social-icon circles (40 px diameter hairline borders, no fill) and a +pill-shaped CTA button. +**States:** default (80 % alpha background); on page scroll the alpha can lift to 95 % +to maintain readability against denser content underneath (a derivation, not a spec +declaration). + +### Topnav social-icon circles + +**Status:** `current` +**Source:** raw.md §Layout sections — Section 1 (Navigation) +**Description:** 40 px-diameter circles defined by a 0.5 px hairline. No fill on +default. The glyph inside is at `var(--foreground)`. Spacing between circles is +12 px. The shape is the spec's clearest exception to the "no rounded corners" rule — +the §Special Notes prohibits rounded corners on grid cells and input fields but allows +pill buttons; circular hairline containers fall under the same exception. +**States:** default (transparent fill); `hover` lifts the fill to +`var(--brand-on-dark-mute)` (20 % white) over 300 ms per the spec's hover-transition +rule (raw.md §Style prompt — "Hover states should transition over 300ms"). + +### Pill CTA Button + +**Status:** `current` +**Source:** raw.md §Layout sections — Section 1 (Navigation), Section 3 (Command Bar: +Cell 2 — Full-width 'JOIN' button) +**Description:** A pill-shaped button (border-radius `999px`) with white fill on dark +canvas and dark canvas-coloured label. Padding is 14 px vertical, 24 px horizontal. The +label is JetBrains Mono at 10 px (topnav) or 12 px (command-bar primary), weight 700, +tracking 0.3 em, uppercase. The button is the system's only deviation from the +zero-radius rule — pill is the explicit exception named in raw.md §Style prompt. +**States:** default (white fill, dark text); `hover` swaps to indigo (`var(--primary)`) +fill with white text over 300 ms — this is the one primary-action surface where the +functional accent appears, per the §Special Notes "only use the accent color for one +primary action" rule. `focus-visible` overlays a 2 px indigo outline offset 2 px from +the pill edge. + +### Email Input (borderless) + +**Status:** `current` +**Source:** raw.md §Layout sections — Section 3 (Command Bar: Cell 1 — Email input with +'JetBrains Mono' placeholder text, no borders) +**Description:** A bare text input with no border, no background fill, and no radius. +The placeholder is JetBrains Mono at 10 – 11 px with 0.3 em tracking (e.g., +`YOUR@EMAIL.COM`). The input sits inside a hairline-bounded grid cell, so the cell's +own borders carry the visual frame — the input itself has no chrome. On focus the +placeholder remains visible until the first keystroke, and a 2 px indigo bottom rule +appears under the typed text (a derivation, not a spec declaration, because the spec +gives no focus treatment for the input). +**States:** default (no chrome); `focus-visible` (2 px indigo bottom rule); +`disabled` lowers the placeholder alpha to 20 % (`var(--brand-on-dark-mute)`). + +### Status Countdown + +**Status:** `current` +**Source:** raw.md §Components 1 — "Status Countdown" +**Description:** A monospaced timer in `HH : MM : SS` format. The separators (the colons) +sit at 20 % opacity (`var(--brand-on-dark-mute)`) so the digits read as the load-bearing +characters. Glyphs are fixed-width via `font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums`. Colour is +white on dark canvas; size 24 px; weight 500. The format is decorative — the timer's +register is "system status indicator", not "countdown to a specific event" — so the +displayed value can be a non-decreasing fixture for showcase purposes. +**States:** default; an `expired` state where the digits flip to indigo +(`var(--primary)`) — the system's permitted single-data-point use of the accent under +the §Special Notes rule. Spec does not declare an expired state explicitly; this is a +derivation that respects the single-accent constraint. + +### Mono Label Stack + +**Status:** `current` +**Source:** raw.md §Layout sections — Section 3 (Command Bar: Cell 4 — Vertical stack +of three system labels) +**Description:** A vertical column of 8 px JetBrains Mono labels at 0.4 em tracking, each +on its own line, uppercase, underscored (`FREE_ACCESS`, `NO_CREDIT_CARD`, `OPT_OUT_ANY`). +Spacing between rows is 6 px. The whole stack is right-aligned to the cell's right +edge — corner-pinned per the architectural register. Colour is white at full opacity (the +spec does not specify, so this is the most-prominent monochrome reading). +**States:** none — the stack is structural copy, not interactive. + +### Interactive Geometric Card + +**Status:** `current` +**Source:** raw.md §Components 3 — "Interactive Geometric Card" +**Description:** A square card with a 0.5 px hairline border. The centre carries a +45-degree rotated square (also defined by a hairline, no fill) at 20 % opacity. The +parent card has no fill, no radius, no shadow. A small mono `SYSTEM_NN` tag sits at the +top-left (per Section 4 — Bento Feature Grid). The bottom-left carries a card title in +Inter Tight 900 at 24 px and a caption in Inter 400 at 14 px / 40 % opacity. The +combination of fixed grid, mono tag, minimal centre glyph, and corner-pinned text block +is the system's most recognisable composition. +**States:** default (glyph at 20 % opacity); `hover` rotates the inner square to 90 +degrees and lifts both the glyph opacity to 100 % and the card background to +`var(--foreground)` at 5 % alpha — a `#FFFFFF05` background shift per Section 4 spec — +over 700 ms with `cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1)`. + +### Hero Word-Segment Cell + +**Status:** `current` +**Source:** raw.md §Layout sections — Section 2 (Hero Section — The Grid) +**Description:** One quadrant of a 2×2 grid. Each cell holds one segment of a single +display word, set in Inter Tight 900, font-size `clamp(5rem, 18vw, 24vw)`, tracking +`-0.06em`, uppercase. Segments align to the bottom-left or top-left corner of their +cell, allowing slight overflow at the cell edge. The cell itself has no fill and no +radius. Hairlines separate adjacent cells. The spec flags the overflow / clipping as +the architectural touch — straight bottom-pinning without overflow reads as "centred +display type", which the system explicitly rejects. +**States:** none — the hero cells are static display chrome. + +### Topnav Version Tag + +**Status:** `current` +**Source:** raw.md §Layout sections — Section 1 (Navigation) — "a 6px white dot and +'JetBrains Mono' versioning tag (e.g., BETA_V.01)" +**Description:** A small mono tag adjacent to the wordmark, separated by a 6 px-diameter +white dot. JetBrains Mono at ~10 px, weight 500, tracking 0.3 em, uppercase, underscore +delimited (e.g., `BETA_V.01`, `RC_2026.05`). The dot is decorative — it visually +brackets the wordmark from the version tag without using a punctuation glyph. +**States:** none — the tag is static metadata. + +## §5 Surface inventory + +This is a spec-derived authoring; no live URLs were sampled. The source materials for +every component, palette value, and layout decision are documented in raw.md, which is +itself a verbatim record of the spec publication. + +- `temp/refs/architectural-type/raw.md` — the only source. Contains §Source, §Description, + §Summary, §Style prose, §Style prompt, §Layout sections (4 named sections with verbatim + copy), §Components (3 named components with verbatim copy), §Special Notes, §Tags, and + §Notes (register identity, defining signature, use case, technical risks). + +## §6 Notes + +- **Monochrome rule is structural, not stylistic.** The §Special Notes paragraph in + raw.md states: "Maintain strict monochrome balance; only use the accent color for one + primary action or specific data points." This is the system's single hardest rule and + governs every component choice. A "second accent" never enters the vocabulary — even + destructive surfaces route to white-on-dark with an indigo focus ring, not to red. +- **Pill button is the lone radius exception.** raw.md §Special Notes prohibits rounded + corners on grid cells and input fields. The pill button (border-radius `999px`) is the + named exception. The topnav social-icon circles fall under the same exception by + shape — a fully-round container — but the spec does not enumerate them as a separate + carve-out. Beyond pill / circle, every other shape is zero-radius. +- **No shadows, no gradients.** Depth comes from line-work and contrast alone. The + brand-extras layer carries no shadow tokens. The component vocabulary uses inset + hairlines or background-alpha shifts for emphasis instead. +- **Underscored mono labels.** raw.md §Special Notes: "Use underscores instead of spaces + in mono-spaced metadata labels (e.g., NO_CREDIT_CARD)." All authored mono copy follows + this — `SYSTEM_01`, `FREE_ACCESS`, `RC_2026.05`, `BETA_V.01`. The convention reads as + filename-shape, reinforcing the engineering-first register. +- **Edge alignment is architectural.** raw.md §Special Notes: "Align text to the very + edges of grid cells for the 'architectural' feel." Centred display type breaks the + register; corner-pinning is the rule. +- **Subpixel hairlines have known DPR risk.** raw.md §Notes — Technical risks: "Subpixel + 0.5px borders render inconsistently across DPRs/browsers (Safari often promotes to + 1px)." The preview template should use `box-shadow: inset 0 0 0 0.5px var(--border)` + for any border that must hold its weight across DPR shifts; ordinary `border` is + acceptable where pixel-perfect rendering is not load-bearing. +- **Hero text-overflow needs an `overflow-x: hidden` parent.** raw.md §Notes: "Massive + 18vw type needs an overflow-x: hidden parent to avoid horizontal scroll." The hero + word-segment cells clip on the right; the page body must contain the overflow. +- **Tabular-nums on every mono numeric.** raw.md §Components 1 — "Status Countdown" and + §Notes — Technical risks both call this out. JetBrains Mono ships with a + `tnum` OpenType feature; `font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums` activates it. +- **Noise overlay should stay paint-cheap.** raw.md §Notes recommends a tiled raster + fallback on low-end GPUs. For the catalog preview the SVG is small enough not to need + the fallback, but the per-system template encodes the noise once and references it so + it is trivially swappable for a tiled raster `` if a downstream consumer needs + the cheaper path. + +## §Known gaps + +- **No live source.** This is a spec-derived authoring. The system has no public live + deployment to sample. The spec's verbatim text in raw.md is the authority; any + divergence between this DESIGN.md and a future live deployment is a fresh authoring + cycle, not a refresh. +- **Light-mode variant is synthesised.** The spec is dark-canonical and silent on a + light variant. The canvas + neutrals declared under §2 for the light branch are an + inverse derivation, not a documented brand surface. The indigo accent and the polarity- + locked hero / command-bar surfaces stay dark across both modes. +- **Destructive register is folded into the monochrome rule.** Most catalog systems carry + a documented red for destructive surfaces. This system declares only one accent and + the §Special Notes monochrome rule forbids a second; destructive surfaces re-home to + a foreground-on-background fill with an indigo focus ring. A `(synthesised)` token + value covers the shadcn-semantic-core slot. +- **No tertiary type role.** The spec declares Inter Tight (display), Inter (body), and + JetBrains Mono (metadata). No serif, no display-italic, no decorative cut. Catalog + consumers expecting a fourth family will need to pick one of the three. +- **Chart palette is monochromatic.** The five `--chart-*` slots are derived from + white / indigo / neutral-grey lightness stops, not a five-hue palette. The system's + monochrome rule forbids the typical chart-rainbow approach. Visualisations that need + more than two categorical series will need to encode the additional series through + shape, weight, or hairline pattern rather than hue. + + \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/architectural-type/README.md b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/architectural-type/README.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..dac0784 --- /dev/null +++ b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/architectural-type/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,23 @@ +# Architectural Type + +A design system with black surfaces, white oversized typography, geometric +grids, and a selective indigo accent. + +## Preview and reference + +- [Light preview](preview.html) +- [Dark preview](preview-dark.html) +- [Design guidance](DESIGN.md): suitability, visual identity, typography, and component guidance. +- [Tokens](tokens.css): concrete values and theme treatments. + +Previews demonstrate the system; their content and layouts are examples. + +## Theme usage + +> Apply the Architectural Type reference (`architectural-type`) to this artifact.

Overview: Cards as the Spatial Unit + +**Creative North Star: "Modular Rhythm"** + +Bento is visualize's card-grid register. Where Clean treats cards as containers for content, Bento treats cards as the spatial language itself — every section is a card, every card has its own visual weight, and the layout's job is to compose them like a Japanese lunchbox into a single legible composition. Card sizes vary deliberately; spacing between cards is the only horizontal rhythm; whitespace is dispensed *inside* cards, not between them. + +Bento is the system to reach for when the artifact has parallel concerns of comparable importance — feature grids, product overviews, dashboard tiles, OKR summaries, comparison matrices. The card grid lets each concern hold its own without subordinating to the next; the warm-neutral palette keeps the composition reading as a single page rather than a wall of widgets. + +Bento explicitly rejects: long uninterrupted prose blocks (use Editorial or Whitepaper instead), dense data tables (the card-per-row read becomes overwhelming above ~12 rows — use IDE or Console), and any layout where one section should clearly dominate (Bento's egalitarian card weight fights you). + +**Key Characteristics:** +- Warm-neutral surface ramp (background → card → muted) at hue ~70 — cream-tinted, not cool grey. +- Cards lifted from background by a 0.02-lightness shift, not by shadows or hard borders. The eye reads the seam, not the box. +- Generous radius scale (`--radius-lg` at 1rem; `--radius-xl` at 1.5rem) — cards have soft corners, which is what makes the grid feel modular rather than gridded. +- Warm coral primary (`--primary`, hue 35) paired with a soft cool-teal accent (`--accent`, hue 200) — two-tone rhythm without competing voices. +- Type weights tighter than Clean (display 700 vs 600) — display headings need to anchor cards visually. + +## 2. Colors: Warm Surfaces, Two-Tone Accent + +A three-step warm-neutral surface ramp anchored on hue 70 (slight peach/cream), paired with a warm coral primary and a soft cool-teal accent. The cool-teal is deliberately *cool* to give the card grid a two-tone read — warm cards on warm background, cool highlight punctuating. + +### Surface Ramp +- **Background** (`oklch(0.97 0.006 70)`): The page floor. Warm cream — distinguishable from cards in side-by-side comparison. +- **Card** (`oklch(0.99 0.004 70)`): The card surface. Near-white but still hue-70, so the warmth carries through. +- **Muted** (`oklch(0.94 0.006 70)`): Recessed card surfaces, sidebar bodies, ambient sections. + +### Brand & Accent +- **Coral Primary** (`oklch(0.65 0.15 35)`): The warm voltage. CTAs, focus rings, primary-emphasis cards, anchor links. +- **Cool Teal Accent** (`oklch(0.88 0.030 200)`): The cool counterpoint. Inline highlights, badges, secondary-emphasis card tiles. Deliberately cool to give the warm grid breathing room. + +### Foreground & Border +- **Warm Foreground** (`oklch(0.18 0.008 70)`): Primary text. Warm-shifted to match the cream surfaces — pure black would read cold against the warm cards. +- **Mid Warm-Grey Muted-Foreground** (`oklch(0.50 0.008 70)`): Captions, metadata. +- **Soft Warm Border** (`oklch(0.90 0.008 70)`): Card seams when borders are used (they're optional — the lightness shift between background and card often does the separation work alone). + +### Chart Palette +Two warm tones (chart-1/2) + two cool (chart-3/4) + one green (chart-5). Reads as a two-tone progression rather than a single-hue ramp — fits Bento's two-tone identity. Distinct from Clean's single-hue blue-violet. + +### Named Rules + +**The Warm-Hue-70 Surface Rule.** Every surface in Bento sits on hue 70 (warm cream). Pure-neutral surfaces (hue 0, chroma 0) belong to Clean. Bento's identity is the warm chassis — even pure white would read out-of-register. + +**The Two-Tone Accent Rule.** Bento ships a warm primary (hue 35) AND a cool accent (hue 200). Both are needed for the card-grid rhythm — a single-accent system reads flat as cards stack. Use accent for at-most one card per visible viewport. + +**The Lightness-Shift Separation Rule.** Cards lift from background by lightness alone (0.97 → 0.99). Shadows and full-strength borders both fight Bento's modular calm. If a card needs more separation, scale spacing — never raise shadow weight. + +## 3. Typography: Tight, Anchored, Modern + +**Display Font:** system sans (`var(--font-sans)`, system stack) +**Body Font:** system sans (`var(--font-sans)`) +**Mono Font:** system mono (`var(--font-mono)`) + +**Character:** Same system stack as Clean, but tighter weights and tracking. Cards are visual containers; the type inside has to anchor without sprawl. Display sits at weight 700 (vs Clean's 600) so card titles hold against the generous radius. + +### Hierarchy + +- **Display** (sans, weight 700, `clamp(2rem, 5vw, 3rem)`, leading 1.15, tracking −0.02em): Card grid hero titles. +- **Heading** (sans, weight 600, 1.875rem, leading 1.2, tracking −0.01em): Card titles in the dominant tile. +- **Title** (sans, weight 600, 1.25rem, leading 1.3): Card titles in supporting tiles. +- **Body** (sans, weight 400, 16px, leading 1.6): Card body copy. +- **Label** (sans, weight 500, 0.875rem, tracking +0.005em): Card labels, metadata, badges. +- **Mono** (mono, weight 400, 0.875rem): Inline code in tech cards. + +### Named Rules + +**The Card-Title-At-Heading-Or-Title Rule.** Card titles use `heading` for the dominant card on the page, `title` for everything else. Display is reserved for the top-of-document hero; never as a card-internal title. + +**The Tight-Tracking Display Rule.** Display + Heading use negative tracking (−0.01em to −0.02em). Bento's display is anchored, not airy. Loosen tracking and the card-grid composition reads soft — which fights the modular identity. + +## 4. Elevation + +Flat at rest, lifted on hover only. Bento's card separation comes from the lightness shift between `--background` and `--card`, not from shadows. Shadows appear on `--shadow-sm` for interactive card hover state and on `--shadow-md` for floating UI; never as decoration. + +### Named Rules + +**The Lightness-Before-Shadow Rule.** When a card needs to stand out at rest, raise its background lightness (use `--card` over `--muted`), not shadow weight. Shadows are state-only. + +## 5. Components + +### Cards & Containers + +- **Corner Style:** `--radius-lg` (1rem) at rest. Bento's signature — generous corners are part of the modular feel. +- **Background:** `--card` for the standard tile, `--muted` for recessed tiles, `--secondary` for highlighted tiles. +- **Border:** Optional hairline 1px in `--border`. The card-vs-background lightness shift often does the seam work alone. +- **Shadow:** Flat at rest; `--shadow-sm` on hover for interactive cards. +- **Internal Padding:** 1.5rem default; tighter (1rem) for dense card grids of 4+ tiles per row. + +### Buttons + +- **Shape:** `--radius-md` (0.625rem) — softer than Clean's middle but tighter than the card corner. +- **Primary:** Coral background, near-white text, weight 500. Wider padding (0.625rem 1.125rem) to match the card-grid rhythm. +- **Secondary:** Soft cool-teal-tinted background; same shape. + +### Inputs / Fields + +- **Style:** `--radius-md`, hairline `--border`, `--background` fill (not `--card` — inputs are recessed, not elevated). +- **Focus:** `--ring` (coral) outline. + +### Navigation + +- **Style:** Body family, weight 500, label scale. +- **States:** Default `--foreground`; hover shifts to `--primary` (coral). No underline at rest. + +### Chart Palette + +Two-tone progression (warm chart-1/2 + cool chart-3/4 + green chart-5). Use chart-1/2 for primary series, chart-3/4 for comparison or secondary, chart-5 for "good/positive" state. + +## 6. Do's and Don'ts + +### Do: + +- **Do** treat the card as the spatial unit. Compose card sizes deliberately; let spacing between cards carry the rhythm. +- **Do** keep surfaces on hue 70 — cream-tinted warm neutrals. Pure white belongs to Clean. +- **Do** pair the warm coral primary with the cool teal accent, sparingly. Two-tone is Bento's identity. +- **Do** lift cards via lightness shift first, shadow second. +- **Do** use generous radius (`--radius-lg`, `--radius-xl`) on cards. Soft corners are part of the read. + +### Don't: + +- **Don't** use Bento for long uninterrupted prose — Editorial or Whitepaper handle that. Bento's card-per-section read fights long-form. +- **Don't** add a third accent. Two-tone is the rule; a third hue makes the card grid noisy. +- **Don't** use pure-neutral surfaces (hue 0, chroma 0). Pure white reads cold against Bento's warm cards. +- **Don't** stack heavy shadows on cards at rest. Bento separates with light, not depth. +- **Don't** use Display for card-internal titles. Display is hero-only; cards get Heading or Title. diff --git a/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/bento/README.md b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/bento/README.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..e520b97 --- /dev/null +++ b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/bento/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,23 @@ +# Bento + +A design system built around modular card grids, warm neutral backgrounds, and +raised surfaces with generous corners. + +## Preview and reference + +- [Light preview](preview.html) +- [Dark preview](preview-dark.html) +- [Design guidance](DESIGN.md): suitability, visual identity, typography, and component guidance. +- [Tokens](tokens.css): concrete values and theme treatments. + +Previews demonstrate the system; their content and layouts are examples. + +## Theme usage + +> Apply the Bento reference (`bento`) to this artifact.

Synthesised. +- `--muted`: `oklch(0.1591 0 0)` (= `#0D0D0D`). Synthesised — mirrors `--card` since the glass surface is the only "muted" background the brand documents. +- `--muted-foreground`: `oklch(0.6334 0 0)` (= `#8A8A8A`, mid-gray utility neutral). Synthesised — derived for muted body text where `--foreground` would over-assert. Chroma-0, so AA-tunable per the AUTHORING utility-neutral exception. +- `--accent`: `oklch(0.1591 0 0)` (= `#0D0D0D`). Synthesised — mirrors `--card`.

Mirrors `--foreground`. +- `--destructive`: `oklch(0.9288 0.0126 255.51)` (= `#E2E8F0`). The spec forbids red destructive cues — destructive states route to the same silver-text foreground and differentiate by weight, underline, or framing. The token exists so shadcn components don't shatter; its value is foreground-equivalent by design. +- `--destructive-foreground`: `oklch(0.1344 0 0)` (= `#080808`). Inverts to obsidian when destructive is used as a fill, so a "destructive" filled button reads as silver-on-black just like the primary CTA. +- `--border`: `oklch(0.2264 0 0)` (= `#1C1C1C`, the composited result of `rgba(255,255,255,0.08)` over obsidian).

Loading the roman cut is wasted bytes. +- **Geist Mono full axis (100–900).** The spec calls out the full range and uses it as a labelling system: 10px labels typically sit at weight 500 with `0.4em` tracking uppercase; 14px buttons sit at weight 700; metadata bars sit at weight 400 with `0.2em` tracking. +- **Inter at three weights (300 / 400 / 600).** Body prose lives at 300–400; titles at 600. The spec doesn't use Inter heavier than that, and using it would compete with the serif headlines. +- **Leading floors.** The italic display serif uses `0.85` (sub-1.0 leading) — the spec is explicit. This is editorial-poster territory and breaks above ~80px size; below that the serif's natural ascenders/descenders need at least `0.95`. Use the floor scale as a baseline, not a recipe. + +## §4 Component vocabulary + +One entry per distinct component pattern the spec enumerates. Three are spec-declared as explicit components (Countdown Timer, Floating Mobile Bottom Nav, Member Registry Card); the remainder are derived from spec §"Layout sections" — each Section 1 through 5 carries enough shape detail to surface as a documented component. Status reflects spec presence, not deployed evidence (there is no deployed surface). + +### Hero headline span + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Section 2 — Hero Section" + spec §"Style prose" +**Description:** Massive italic DM Serif Display headline at `clamp(42px, 10vw, 140px)` with `tracking-tighter` (`-0.04em`) and `leading-0.85`. One span inside the headline carries the silver gradient (`background: linear-gradient(135deg, #F8FAFC 0%, #94A3B8 100%)` clipped to text via `background-clip: text; color: transparent;`); the rest of the headline sits at full `#FFFFFF`. Centered inside a faint frosted-glass container (`opacity-30`, `4rem` radius on desktop, `2rem` on mobile). Hero container is fluid `92vw`, padding scales `py-12` → `py-32`. +**States:** `default` (italic gradient span + white run). No documented hover / interactive states — the hero is a static editorial moment. + +### Metadata bar + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Section 2 — Hero Section" +**Description:** Three-column flex row directly below the hero headline. Each column carries a label-only entry in Geist Mono at 10–12px, uppercase, `0.3em`+ tracking. Documented columns: Est. Date, Description, Location/Limit. Separators are hairline verticals at `--brand-hairline-soft`. The bar sits inline (not wrapped in a card), bridging headline and capture form. +**States:** `default` — static informational row. + +### Beta capture form + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Section 3 — Beta Capture Form" +**Description:** Horizontal flex row at `max-w-2xl` inside a frosted-glass container (`rgba(255,255,255,0.02)` + `backdrop-filter: blur(24px)`) with a 2xl-rounded outer radius. The form contains exactly two children: a transparent-background mono input (no border, 100% flex-grow, Geist Mono, placeholder in `--brand-body-faint`) and a silver-gradient CTA button. Stacks to column on `sm` and below. +**States:** `default`, `focus` (input ring uses `--ring`, no border colour change), `disabled` (CTA dims to `--brand-body-muted` foreground, glass surface stays). + +### Silver-gradient button + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Style prompt / Effects / Buttons" + spec §"Section 3 — Beta Capture Form" +**Description:** Primary CTA. Background is `linear-gradient(135deg, #F8FAFC 0%, #94A3B8 100%)`. Text is `#080808` (obsidian) in Geist Mono, weight 700, uppercase, `0.2em` tracking. Border-radius `0.75rem` (xl). Padding: `0.875rem 1.5rem`. Hover lifts 1px (`translate-y: -1px`) and gains a soft glow (`box-shadow: 0 0 20px rgba(255,255,255,0.15)` — note this is the **only** documented shadow in the entire system, and per the spec is glow-not-drop; everywhere else, the no-shadow rule applies). +**States:** `default`, `hover` (1px lift + soft glow), `focus` (visible ring via `--ring`, no removal of lift), `active` (returns to baseline + slight darkening of the lighter gradient stop), `disabled` (fades to flat `--brand-body-muted` fill, no gradient). + +### Frosted-glass card + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Style prompt / Effects / Glass" +**Description:** Generic card surface used by the capture form, hero container, and most bento cells. Background `rgba(255,255,255,0.02)` (= `--brand-glass-surface`), `backdrop-filter: blur(24px) saturate(140%)`, 1px border at `--brand-hairline-soft`, radius `1rem` (16px — the documented "card radius") for standard cards, `2rem` for the form container, `4rem` for the hero container. +**States:** `default`, `hover` (background lifts to `rgba(255,255,255,0.03)`, border lifts to `--brand-hairline-hover`, no transform unless the brand-X spec calls one out). + +### Bento feature card + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Section 4 — Bento Feature Grid" +**Description:** Specialised glass card living inside a `border-y` + `border-r` grid (1 col / 2 col / 4 col responsive). Top-left numbered index (`01 / EFFICIENCY`) in 10px Geist Mono uppercase + `--brand-hairline-strong` tracking on a single line. Below: 4xl italic DM Serif Display headline. Below the headline: body copy in Inter mono-case (per spec — title-case-like rendering but for short body lines) at `1rem`. Hover state lifts background to `rgba(255,255,255,0.03)` and border to `rgba(255,255,255,0.2)`. +**States:** `default`, `hover` (background + border shift, no scale, no transform). + +### Countdown timer + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Components / Countdown Timer" +**Description:** Editorial-poster countdown. Three (or four) flex-row containers for HH / MM / SS, each carrying a serif numeral pair in DM Serif Display italic at `clamp(3rem, 8vw, 7.5rem)` (5xl → 120px). Slash separators (`/`) at `opacity: 0.1` sit between containers. Optional 10px Geist Mono sub-labels ("HRS", "MIN", "SEC") sit above each numeral pair. Numerals render at `color: rgba(255,255,255,0.9)` (= `--brand-body` ≈ `--foreground` at 90%). +**States:** `default` — typically static or auto-ticking; no hover. + +### Floating mobile bottom nav + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Components / Floating Mobile Bottom Nav" +**Description:** Polarity-locked persistent pill. Fixed `bottom: 1.5rem` (= `bottom-6`), horizontally centred. Background `rgba(8,8,8,0.85)` (obsidian at 85% opacity), `backdrop-filter: blur(24px)`. Border-radius `9999px` (fully rounded pill). Width is content-determined; height ~48px. Five flex slots; the centre slot is a primary action button with `background: #FFFFFF` and `color: #080808` (the only place white-on-obsidian inverts cleanly without the silver gradient). Other slots: 16px Lucide-style icon + 8px Geist Mono label below at `0.4em` tracking uppercase. +**States:** `hidden` (initial — `translate-y: 8rem` and `opacity: 0` until the hero passes), `visible` (slides in via `cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1)` over `0.8s`), per-slot `hover` (label colour lifts to full white). + +### Member registry card + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Components / Member Registry Card" +**Description:** Specialised bento card showcasing waitlist-style member badges. 2×2 grid inside one bento cell. Each badge: 10px circular grayscale avatar (`filter: grayscale(1) contrast(1.25)`) followed by an 8px Geist Mono title (`0.4em` tracking, uppercase). Cell bottom-right carries a large decorative icon (e.g. ID card glyph) at `opacity: 0.05` for compositional weight. On hover, each row translates `1px` to the right (`translate-x: 1`), text lifts to full white, and the avatar scales to `1.1`. +**States:** `default`, per-row `hover` (translate + text lift + avatar scale). + +### Testimonial block + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Section 5 — Testimonials" +**Description:** Two-column grid with `padding-left: 4rem` (= `pl-16`) and a left-border accent (`1px solid --brand-hairline-strong`). Quote sits at 5xl DM Serif Display italic in `--foreground`. Attribution + role in Geist Mono uppercase at 10–12px in `--brand-body-muted`. Avatar: grayscale + `contrast(1.25)` filter at ~40px square (the spec doesn't specify avatar size on the testimonial; 40px is derived from "small grayscale avatar" register conventions and follows the registry card's 10px size up one step for the more spacious testimonial block). Whole section background is `rgba(255,255,255,0.01)` (`--background` + 1% wash). +**States:** `default` — static editorial block. + +### Header / nav + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Section 1 — Header / Navigation" +**Description:** Full-width container at `92vw`, padding `2rem` (= `p-8`). Left: monospace wordmark in Geist Mono uppercase, `0.5em` tracking, weight 600. Right (desktop): flex container with border-separated links; each link has `background: rgba(255,255,255,0.05)` and `border: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,0.10)`. Final right-side cell is a solid white "Join" button (`background: #FFFFFF`, `color: #080808`, Geist Mono uppercase). Right (mobile): single hamburger icon or minimalist text label. +**States:** `default`, link `hover` (background lifts to `rgba(255,255,255,0.08)`, border to `rgba(255,255,255,0.2)`). + +### Hairline grid (bento container) + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Section 4 — Bento Feature Grid" +**Description:** The grid that hosts the bento feature cards. Uses `border-y` on the outer container and `border-r` on each interior cell (except the right-most) at `--brand-hairline-strong`. Creates a technical-blueprint look without surrounding the cards in card chrome. Columns: 1 (base) / 2 (md) / 4 (lg). +**States:** `default` — structural only, no interactive state. + +### Noise overlay + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Style prompt / Effects / Noise" +**Description:** SVG fractal-noise filter at `opacity: 0.05`, applied as a fixed-position full-viewport `::before` or sibling element behind all content. The filter uses `` (derived from typical editorial-brutalist noise registers; the spec gives only the opacity value). Not interactive; adds depth without colour. +**States:** `default` — static decorative layer. + +### Mono badge / pill + +**Status:** `current` (derived) +**Live source:** Derived from spec §"Section 1 — Header / Navigation" (border-separated link pattern) and §"Section 4 — Bento Feature Grid" (numbered index pattern). The spec doesn't enumerate a standalone badge, but every micro-label in the system follows the same shape: 10–12px Geist Mono uppercase + `0.3–0.5em` tracking + glass background + hairline border + small radius. +**Description:** Compact label slot. Background `--brand-glass-surface`, 1px border at `--brand-hairline-soft`, radius `0.5rem`, padding `0.375rem 0.625rem`. Text in Geist Mono at 10px uppercase, weight 500, `0.4em` tracking. +**States:** `default`, `hover` (border lifts to `--brand-hairline-hover`). + +## §5 Surface inventory + +Spec-derived mode — there is no deployed surface inventory. The reference materials are entirely textual (the `temp/refs/beta-capture/raw.md` Superdesign entry by Shirley Lou). Components were enumerated from the spec's layout-section and component prose; OKLCH values were converted from the spec's hex literals; type sizing was taken from the spec's `clamp()` directives where given and conventional editorial ranges where not. + +## §6 Notes + +Brand-specific patterns worth flagging: + +- **Single-polarity dark.** Light-mode is out of scope by spec ("MUST maintain the strict monochrome/silver palette"). Both `:root` and `[data-theme="dark"]` mirror the same obsidian canvas; the dark-mode block is functionally a no-op for chromatic tokens. Polarity-locked tokens (`--brand-canvas-night`, `--brand-on-dark`, `--brand-glass-surface`) stay fixed by definition. +- **No semantic colour.** The spec forbids red error states, green success states, blue links. Validation surfaces must differentiate via weight / tracking / underline / framing instead of hue. `--destructive` exists only so shadcn primitives compile; its value is foreground-equivalent. +- **The silver gradient is the only chromatic move.** Everywhere a brand would normally place a tint (success ribbons, info callouts, brand-accent eyebrows), this system uses either the gradient at full opacity (for CTA fills, hero headline spans) or a glass-and-hairline composition (for cards, badges, nav links). +- **One documented shadow, glow-only.** The spec's "MUST NOT use standard box-shadows; use borders or backdrop-blurs for depth" is overruled in exactly one place: the silver-gradient button's hover lift (`box-shadow: 0 0 20px rgba(255,255,255,0.15)`). That shadow is a glow on the bright stop, not a drop-shadow under the button — depth still comes from blur and hairline. +- **Fluid 92vw containers.** The spec mandates `width: 92vw` for hero and major sections, bypassing standard Tailwind `max-w-*` containers. Preview should follow — `max-width: 92vw` on the main wrapper, not a fixed 1280px shell. This is a brand-identifying choice tied to the editorial-brutalist register. +- **Italic-serif requirement.** "MUST NOT use non-italicized serif for headlines." DM Serif Display loads only its italic cut; substituting non-italic serif breaks the brand's identity. If DM Serif Display can't load, a system serif italic (e.g. `ui-serif italic`) is the safest fallback. +- **Fractal-noise overlay is part of the canvas.** Without the 0.05-opacity SVG noise layer, the obsidian canvas reads as flat black and the editorial weight collapses. Treat noise as canvas, not decoration. +- **Brand-X-lift content to avoid when authoring previews.** The spec describes a waitlist / beta-capture moment for "SaaS waitlists, fintech, or premium developer tools." Don't lift real waitlist sites' copy (Vercel waitlist, fintech invite codes, real "Early Access" captions). Halcyon-team neutral copy — invented waitlist headlines, generic launch-window references, invented metadata bar values (release windows, region copy, capacity copy) — only. + +## §Known gaps + +- **No deployed surface to sample.** This is the spec-derived mode by design; the spec is the source of truth. If a live brand using this exact "Modern Obsidian" register surfaces later (a real waitlist page that ships these moves), capture URLs and reconcile here. +- **No imagery provided this cycle.** Component dimensions for the testimonial avatar size, exact noise filter parameters (`baseFrequency`, `numOctaves`), and the hairline grid's column-gutter sizing are derived from convention rather than measurement. If reference imagery is added later, re-check those derivations against pixel measurements and update §4 entries accordingly. +- **No documented dark mode lift.** Since the brand is single-polarity dark, there is no chromatic ladder for "lifted-on-darker" or "tinted-on-lighter" surfaces. If the brand ever ships a documented elevation system (e.g. a more elevated card surface above the standard glass), it would belong in §2 as `--brand-glass-surface-elevated` and currently does not exist. +- **Validation / form-error visual language.** Since the spec forbids semantic colour, the recommended pattern (weight / tracking / underline / framing) is implied rather than spelled out. A real shipping team would need to invent the convention; until then, treat form errors as "italic serif inline above the field" or "tracked-uppercase mono prefix before the field label." diff --git a/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/beta-capture/README.md b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/beta-capture/README.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..52a3b48 --- /dev/null +++ b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/beta-capture/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,23 @@ +# Beta Capture + +A design system for waitlist pages, combining textured obsidian surfaces, +large italic serif typography, and silver accents. + +## Preview and reference + +- [Light preview](preview.html) +- [Dark preview](preview-dark.html) +- [Design guidance](DESIGN.md): suitability, visual identity, typography, and component guidance. +- [Tokens](tokens.css): concrete values and theme treatments. + +Previews demonstrate the system; their content and layouts are examples. + +## Theme usage + +> Apply the Beta Capture reference (`beta-capture`) to this artifact.

The brand runs a two-track canvas: every *product* and *brand-corporate* surface (trade screen, futures, markets when signed in, about, careers, square, the homepage when defaulted) ships on a navy-tinted near-black canvas, and every *transactional / educational* surface (academy article reader, research reports, support, fee schedule, the help-article tree, blog) ships on white. The split is not "light marketing + dark product" the way Stripe is; it is "trading + corporate identity = dark; reading / learning / paying = light." Both modes are first-class — neither is a synthesised inverse. + +The brand-yellow `#FCD535` is the dominant chromatic event in both polarities and shoulders nearly every primary CTA. It does not carry a ladder of pressed / disabled / soft variants in the way Stripe's purple does; the only documented variants are a slightly dimmer active-state `#E5C12B` and a desaturated disabled state. Trading-up green `#0ECB81` and trading-down red `#F6465D` are the second tier — they sit in the orderbook, the candlestick chart, the market-list percentage column, and the buy / sell buttons, and they appear on both polarities at the same value. Outside of trading semantics the brand has no decorative palette — every other chromatic accent is the yellow. + +Two things in the upstream `tokens.css` import disagree with what the live brand currently ships, both flagged in the §Drift block at the bottom. The headline divergence is that the trading-down red `oklch(0.68 0.21 18.17)` in the import is in the wrong hue family — Binance ships a more magenta-leaning red than that hue suggests; the live surface lines up closer to `oklch(0.625 0.218 22.5)`. The second divergence is `--brand-primary-active`: the import uses `oklch(0.8132 0.1649 86.6888)`, which is lighter than the actual pressed-state yellow the brand uses on hover/press; the live yellow goes *darker* on press, not lighter (toward `#E5C12B`). + +## §1 Canonical canvas + +| Surface | URL | Canvas | Notes | +|---|---|---|---| +| Homepage | `https://www.binance.com/en` | navy-near-black dark | Default landing renders dark.

The topnav itself is dark on every dark surface and white on every light surface, so the polarity is implicit in the route.

The brand-glyph wordmark uses the same value as a fill. Observed. +- `--brand-primary-active`: `oklch(0.8132 0.1649 86.6888)` (= `#EBC025`-ish). Notional press-state yellow. The catalog import sets it slightly *lighter*; on the live site the press / hover deepens slightly toward `#E5C12B` — see §Drift. (Slot present in `tokens.css`; live value diverges.) +- `--brand-primary-disabled`: `oklch(0.3410 0.0429 108.4760)` (a desaturated muted-olive shaped from the yellow's hue).

Live: `/en/markets/overview` — every positive 24h-percentage column (e.g. `+1.88%` on TRX, `+91.43%` on POND); `/en/trade/BTC_USDT` — bid-side orderbook rows, the green tick on candlestick chart, the `Buy / Long` button fill. Observed. +- `--brand-trading-down`: `oklch(0.625 0.218 22.5)` (= `#F6465D`). Live: `/en/markets/overview` — every negative 24h-percentage column (`-0.84%` on BTC, `-1.79%` on SOL); `/en/trade/BTC_USDT` — ask-side orderbook rows, the red wick on candlestick chart, the `Sell / Short` button fill. Live value differs from import (which carries `oklch(0.68 0.21 18.17)`) — see §Drift. + +### Canvas + neutrals + +- `--background`: dual-mode token. + - Light surfaces (academy, research, markets, fee, blog, support): `oklch(1 0 0)` (= `#FFFFFF`).

Observed on `/en` (default landing), `/en/trade/BTC_USDT`. The token's tiny chroma toward hue 248 (blue) is what makes the dark mode "Binance dark" rather than pure-black — visually warmer in the orange/yellow direction and slightly bluer than Coinbase's near-black. +- `--foreground`: `oklch(0.2183 0.0121 270.8076)` (≈ `#1E2329`) on light surfaces; `oklch(0.9424 0.0046 258.3251)` (≈ `#EAECEF`) on dark. Light-foreground from `/en/academy` body ink; dark-foreground from `/en/trade/BTC_USDT` panel labels. Observed. +- `--card`: `oklch(1 0 0)` on light; `oklch(0.2537 0.0135 253.0681)` (≈ `#1E2630`, a one-step-lighter navy) on dark. The dark card colour is what makes orderbook / chart / order-form panels visually separable from the canvas — each panel is a card-on-canvas relationship, never floated with a shadow. Observed via the orderbook column on `/en/trade/BTC_USDT`. +- `--card-foreground`: tracks `--foreground` on both modes. +- `--popover`, `--popover-foreground`: match `--card` / `--card-foreground`. (synthesised — dropdowns observed visually on the trading-pair selector match the card colour.) +- `--muted`: dark — `oklch(0.2537 0.0135 253.0681)` (= `--card` value). Light — defined as `oklch(1 0 0)` in import (essentially no fill); the live brand uses a barely-perceptible `oklch(0.9851 0 0)` (= `#FAFAFA`) on alternating bands in fee-schedule and academy lists. See §Drift. (synthesised on the light side.) +- `--muted-foreground`: light — `oklch(0.50 0.025 259.8038)` (≈ `#707A8A`, a cool mid-grey for secondary copy and labels); dark — `oklch(0.7000 0.0274 259.8038)` (≈ `#B7BDC6`). Observed on `/en/academy` byline grey ("7 minutes reading time") and `/en/trade/BTC_USDT` column labels (Price / Amount / Total). +- `--accent`: `oklch(0.7248 0.1160 189.8991)` (≈ `#2EBD85`, a teal-green). Carried in the import as a slot value; the live site does *not* use this hue anywhere observable — every "accent" role on the live site is yellow `--primary` or the trading green. Treat as `not-observed-2026-05`; retained in the slot for downstream component compatibility. (synthesised.) +- `--accent-foreground`: tracks `--foreground`. +- `--secondary`: light — `oklch(1 0 0)`; dark — `oklch(0.2537 0.0135 253.0681)`. Same role as `--card`. +- `--secondary-foreground`: tracks `--foreground`. +- `--destructive`: `oklch(0.5308 0.2178 29.2339)` (≈ `#C53030`, a deep error red). Distinct from `--brand-trading-down` — the destructive red is more orange-leaning and only appears in form validation / confirm-delete confirmations, never in trading semantics. (synthesised — not directly sampled this cycle; flows behind sign-in.) +- `--destructive-foreground`: white on light; tracks `--foreground` on dark. +- `--border`: light — `oklch(0.8975 0 0)` (≈ `#E6E8EA`, a near-neutral grey); dark — `oklch(0.3107 0.0166 255.6442)` (≈ `#2B3139`, a navy-tinted divider). Observed on `/en/markets/overview` table row dividers and `/en/trade/BTC_USDT` panel borders. +- `--input`: tracks `--border` on both modes — Binance inputs are bordered, not filled. +- `--ring`: tracks `--primary` (yellow). Observed on focused inputs during sign-up flow. + +### Polarity-locked surfaces + +These tokens hold the same value across `:root` and `[data-theme="dark"]` — they describe surfaces that don't flip with theme. + +- `--brand-canvas-dark`: `oklch(0.1618 0.0080 248.3222)` (= near-black). Live: the homepage hero, the trade screen body, the footer of *every* page including light-canvas pages — Binance's footer is always-dark regardless of the page above it. Observed on the academy footer and the support-page footer (both land dark beneath a light body). Polarity-locked. +- `--brand-canvas-light`: `oklch(1 0 0)` (= `#FFFFFF`). Live: editorial bodies on academy / research / blog; never flips to dark even when the user is viewing in dark mode. Polarity-locked. +- `--brand-surface-card-dark`: `oklch(0.2537 0.0135 253.0681)`. The card colour on dark canvases — orderbook, chart, panel containers, futures position rows. +- `--brand-surface-elevated-dark`: `oklch(0.3107 0.0166 255.6442)`. The next elevation up — selected tab background in the trade screen, hovered orderbook row, modal-on-dark background. +- `--brand-surface-soft-light`: `oklch(0.9851 0 0)` (= `#FAFAFA`). Light-canvas alternating-row band (fee schedule, academy article-list zebra striping). +- `--brand-surface-strong-light`: `oklch(0.9702 0 0)` (= `#F5F5F5`). Light-canvas elevation — research-report card background, academy difficulty-badge fill. +- `--brand-on-dark`: `oklch(1 0 0)` (= `#FFFFFF`). Body text colour on always-dark surfaces (the footer is the canonical consumer). Polarity-locked. +- `--brand-body`: `oklch(0.9424 0.0046 258.3251)` (≈ `#EAECEF`). Dark-canvas body text — lighter than `--brand-on-dark` to soften long-form prose on the dark canvas; observed on the about-page "Our Mission" body copy. +- `--brand-body-on-light`: `oklch(0.2183 0.0121 270.8076)` (≈ `#1E2329`). Light-canvas body text — observed on academy article bodies and research report paragraphs. Polarity-locked to light surfaces. + +### Hairlines / dividers + +- `--brand-hairline-on-light`: `oklch(0.9424 0.0046 258.3251)` (≈ `#EAECEF`). Light-canvas row dividers — observed on the markets-overview table, fee-schedule rows, academy article-grid borders. +- `--brand-hairline-on-dark`: `oklch(0.3107 0.0166 255.6442)` (≈ `#2B3139`). Dark-canvas row dividers — observed on the orderbook row separator, the trade-history zebra band, the trading-screen panel-to-panel splits. +- `--brand-border-strong`: `oklch(0.8591 0.0082 253.8609)` (≈ `#D2D5D9`). Stronger light-canvas border — observed on the input fields in the support search and the fee-schedule outer table border. + +### Secondary chromatic role — info blue + +- `--brand-info` / `--brand-info-ring`: `oklch(0.6231 0.1880 259.8145)` (≈ `#1E88FB`). The brand's documented info/link colour — observed on `/en/blog` category-pill active state and on link text inside fee-schedule footnotes. Sits well below `--primary` in deployment volume but is the brand's only documented chromatic that's not yellow or trading green/red. + +### Drift vs `tokens.css` + +Values in `tokens.css` (the upstream import @ commit `3883984b`) that diverge from what the live brand currently ships: + +- **`--brand-trading-down`: `oklch(0.68 0.21 18.17)` (import = `#ff5065`) → `oklch(0.6543 0.2110 18.17)` (live = `#F6465D`).** The import value is slightly lighter than brand-truth (L=0.68 vs 0.6543) but holds the correct hue family (H=18.17). The brand-truth `#F6465D` lands at 4.48:1 on the dark card `#1e2329` — barely sub-AA, which is what Binance themselves ship in production. **Reconciliation:** retune to brand-truth `oklch(0.6543 0.211 18.17)`, then apply a utility-neutral lift to `oklch(0.66 0.211 18.17)` (= `#f8485f`, 4.59:1 AA-passing) so the catalog's preview clears AA on dark card without forcing a real brand-color shift. The 0.006 L lift is perceptually indistinguishable. Same utility-tune pattern documented on Apple's `--brand-ink-muted-48` and Linear's `--brand-ink-mute`. **Common pitfall to avoid: `oklch(0.625 0.218 22.5)` is NOT `#F6465D`** — it renders to `#ef3745` (the conversion error that shipped in commit d79f990, fixed in the cascade). Always cross-check OKLCH→hex via `node visualize/scripts/vendor/culori.mjs`. Preserve `--brand-trading-up` (the green's OKLCH `oklch(0.7427 0.1713 158.1483)` = `#0ECB81` exactly, 7.44:1 — clean). +- **`--brand-primary-active`: `oklch(0.8132 0.1649 86.6888)` (import) → `oklch(0.8474 0.1599 91.5)` (live, observed `#E5C12B`).** The import direction is wrong: it lightens the press state, but Binance darkens it. The hue also drifts slightly (94.2 → 86.7 in the import; live closer to 91.5). **Reconciliation:** retune to `oklch(0.8474 0.1599 91.5)`, document in the tokens.css header as a live-verified override. +- **`--accent`: `oklch(0.7248 0.1160 189.8991)` (teal).** Not observed on any sampled surface — Binance has no teal-green accent in its current visual identity. The slot is retained for shadcn-component compatibility but a flag of `not-observed-2026-05` is appropriate. **Reconciliation:** leave the value in place (slot needs *some* value), but add a comment in `tokens.css` noting the brand doesn't surface it. Alternatively, repoint to `--brand-info` blue. +- **`--muted` on light: `oklch(1 0 0)` (import).** Effectively means "no muted fill" on light, which makes alternating bands disappear in academy / fee-schedule lists. Live brand uses `oklch(0.9851 0 0)` (= `#FAFAFA`). **Reconciliation:** flip to `oklch(0.9851 0 0)`. +- **`--primary-foreground`: `oklch(0.2183 0.0121 270.8076)` (import).** Correct — Binance ships dark ink on yellow buttons, never white. Confirmed across `/en` Sign Up, `/en/academy` Get Started, `/en/launchpool` Subscribe. No change. + +The dark-mode block in `tokens.css` was already hand-edited (per the file header comment) to swap the synthesised pure-black canvas for the navy-tinted `--brand-canvas-dark` and to flow card/secondary/muted through the brand's surface ladder. Those edits remain correct. + +## §3 Typography + +The brand commissioned a proprietary family — **BinanceNova** — that's served from a custom subdomain (`bin.bnbstatic.com/static/fonts/`) on every page. It sits across both polarities and across all surfaces (trading, editorial, marketing). The brand does not switch to a serif for editorial in the way the New York Times' opinion section does — academy and research pages still ship BinanceNova at the same weights, just at larger body sizes (16-17px instead of trading-screen's 12-14px) and looser line-heights. + +| Role | Family | Weight | Size | Line-height | Tracking | +|---|---|---|---|---|---| +| Display | BinanceNova → -apple-system → BlinkMacSystemFont → sans-serif | 700 | 64px (homepage hero), 48px (academy / research hero) | 1.05 / 1.1 | -0.025em | +| Heading | BinanceNova → fallback stack | 600 — 700 | 28-32px (section titles); 24px (about-page H2) | 1.1 — 1.2 | -0.02em | +| Title | BinanceNova | 600 | 20px (card titles, panel titles) | 1.3 | normal | +| Body | BinanceNova | 400 | 14px (product / trading screen), 16px (editorial / academy / research) | 1.5 | normal | +| Caption | BinanceNova | 400 — 500 | 12px (orderbook labels, table cell text), 10px (uppercase eyebrow / column header) | 1.4 | 0.06em on uppercase eyebrows; normal otherwise | +| Mono | (none — no monospace observed anywhere) | — | — | — | — | + +Notes: + +- **No monospace family.** The trading screen renders all its numeric data (prices, percentages, volumes) in BinanceNova at `font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums`. The brand does not ship JetBrains Mono / IBM Plex Mono / Roboto Mono anywhere on a sampled surface, which is unusual for a financial product. The choice keeps the visual continuity between body copy and price data; competitors typically split body and numerics across two families. +- **Tabular numerics everywhere price-data appears.** Every cell in the orderbook, market list, fee schedule, futures position table, and BTCUSDT price-ticker uses `tnum`. This is the single most consistent typographic decision on the brand. +- **Uppercase eyebrow at 10-11px with 0.06em tracking** is the brand's section-header / column-header pattern. Visible on the orderbook column labels (PRICE / AMOUNT (BTC) / TOTAL), the my-trades panel, every panel inside the trade screen, and the fee-schedule column headers. +- **Display weight is 700 with -0.025em negative tracking.** Tighter than Coinbase's 400-weight display (which sits at -2px tracking) but lighter than Stripe's 500-weight display. Reads as "confident, slightly forceful" rather than "calm, editorial." +- **No italic anywhere.** Sampled across all twelve surfaces. The brand does not own an italic cut of BinanceNova in the served subset. + +## §4 Component vocabulary + +Sampled from the twelve URLs in §5. Each entry below is a distinct component the brand ships; when the same role ships with different chrome on a dark surface vs. a light surface (e.g. button border colour, divider density) the variants are listed as separate entries. Marked `not-observed-2026-05` for surfaces expected from a financial brand but missing in this cycle (typically behind sign-in). + +### Primary CTA — yellow pill +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en` — top-right `Sign Up` button; `/en/academy` — `Get Started` chip; `/en/launchpool` — `Subscribe` CTA on every project card. +**Description:** Solid `#FCD535` fill, ink-dark text (`#1E2329`), `border-radius: 4px`, `padding: 0 1.25rem`, `min-height: 44px`, label weight 600. No glyph, no border, no shadow. The single most-deployed component on the brand — present in the topnav of every page, in card CTAs, in form-submit buttons. Polarity-fixed: the yellow fill and dark ink do not change when the canvas flips. +**States:** default + hover sampled. Hover deepens to `#E5C12B`; pressed deepens further to ~`#D9B423`; disabled drops to a desaturated muted-olive `#574E1A` with reduced-opacity dark ink. + +### Secondary CTA — bordered transparent (dark surface) +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en` — `Log In` button in topnav, sitting to the left of `Sign Up`; `/en/about` — `Learn More` button under the hero. +**Description:** No fill, ink-dark text replaced by `--brand-on-dark` (white), `border: 1px solid var(--brand-hairline-on-dark)` (= `#2B3139`), `border-radius: 4px`, same padding as primary. The border is intentionally near-invisible at rest against the dark canvas; the button reads as "text in topnav" until hover, when the border brightens to `--brand-on-dark` (white) and the affordance becomes obvious. Used as the universal second-action button on every dark surface. +**States:** default + hover sampled. Hover border lifts to white; pressed reduces opacity slightly. + +### Secondary CTA — bordered (light surface) +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/academy` — secondary `View All` chips above article grids; `/en/fee/schedule` — `Download CSV` button beside the VIP table. +**Description:** White fill, `--brand-body-on-light` ink (`#1E2329`), `border: 1px solid var(--brand-border-strong)` (`#D2D5D9`), `border-radius: 4px`. Same padding as primary. The white fill is the differentiator — the dark-surface variant is transparent; the light-surface variant explicitly fills white to separate from grey alternating bands. +**States:** default sampled. Hover deepens border to `--brand-body-on-light`. + +### Tertiary text link +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/blog` — category pills behave as text links at rest; `/en/support` — `Top Questions` numbered list items. +**Description:** No chrome, `color: --foreground`, `font-weight: 500`. Hover underlines the text and switches `color` to `--brand-info` blue (`#1E88FB`) — the only place outside trading data where chroma other than yellow appears in body content. +**States:** default + hover sampled. + +### Brand wordmark / glyph +**Status:** current +**Live source:** topnav left-corner of every page. +**Description:** A monochrome four-rhombus glyph (the four-square Binance mark) at `#FCD535` on dark canvases, or `#1E2329` (ink) on light canvases — the brand mark *does* flip with theme, distinct from the primary CTA which stays yellow on both. Wordmark text `BINANCE` rendered in BinanceNova at weight 700 / 17px / -0.3px tracking sits to the right of the glyph. On dark canvases the wordmark is white; on light canvases the wordmark is ink-dark. +**States:** default per polarity. + +### Topnav — dark variant +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en`, `/en/trade/BTC_USDT`, `/en/about`, `/en/careers`, `/en/square`, `/en/launchpool`, `/en/download`. +**Description:** 64px tall, full-bleed `--brand-canvas-dark` fill, `border-bottom: 1px solid --brand-hairline-on-dark`. Left cluster: brand glyph + wordmark + primary nav (`Markets`, `Trade`, `Square`, `Futures`, `Earn`, `Square`). Right cluster: search icon, language/currency dropdown, theme toggle (dark/light), `Log In` (secondary), `Sign Up` (primary yellow), wallet icon, user avatar (when signed in). Navigation labels at weight 500 / 14px / `--brand-on-dark` at 0.85 opacity, lifting to 1.0 on hover. +**States:** default + hover. + +### Topnav — light variant +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/academy`, `/en/research`, `/en/markets/overview`, `/en/fee/schedule`, `/en/blog`, `/en/support`. +**Description:** Same height (64px) and layout as the dark variant; canvas flips to white, navigation labels flip to `--brand-body-on-light`. The `Sign Up` button stays yellow; the `Log In` button flips its border to `--brand-border-strong` and ink to `--brand-body-on-light`. Bottom border switches to `--brand-hairline-on-light`. Recognition is identical between variants — only the surrounding colour swaps. +**States:** default + hover. + +### Sub-nav — pill chip row +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/blog` — twenty-category chip row above the article grid (`All`, `From our CEO`, `Leadership`, `Ecosystem`, `Community`, `Markets`, `VIP`, `Charity`, `Culture`, `Security`, `Education`, `Research`, `P2P`, `Earn`, `Payments`, `Futures`, `NFT`, `Tech`, `Fiat`); `/en/academy` — difficulty filter row (Beginner / Intermediate / Advanced). +**Description:** Inline-flex row of pills. Inactive pill: `background: --muted` (= `#F5F5F5` on light), `color: --muted-foreground`, `border-radius: 999px` (full pill), `padding: 0.5rem 1rem`, `font-size: 14px / weight: 500`. Active pill: `background: --foreground` (ink-dark), `color: white`. Single row, horizontal-scroll on overflow; visible on `/en/blog` where the chip row scrolls past the viewport at narrow widths. +**States:** default + active sampled. + +### Orderbook component +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/trade/BTC_USDT` — right column, middle panel. +**Description:** The trade-screen signature surface. Split into bid (lower / green-up) and ask (upper / red-down) halves with a centre row showing current price + spread. Each row: `grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr 1fr` for Price / Amount(BTC) / Total. Price column tinted `--brand-trading-up` for bids, `--brand-trading-down` for asks; Amount and Total columns in `--foreground` at reduced opacity (~0.65). Font 12px BinanceNova `tnum`. Row height ~24px (high density — typically 12 bids + 12 asks visible). Each row carries a subtle depth-bar background — a horizontal `linear-gradient` from the row's right edge inward, tinted faintly in the row's semantic colour (green for bids, red for asks), opacity ~0.08. Hovering a row darkens the background to `--brand-surface-elevated-dark`. Centre spread row carries `Price` value at 18px / weight 700, with a small directional arrow indicating last-tick direction. +**States:** default + hover sampled. Real-time price updates flash the changed cell to the semantic colour briefly (observed visually). + +### Candlestick chart container +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/trade/BTC_USDT` — left column, top. +**Description:** Card-on-canvas with `--brand-surface-card-dark` fill, `border-radius: 8px`, full-width inside the trading area. Top toolbar: timeframe selector (1s / 1m / 3m / 5m / 15m / 30m / 1H / 2H / 4H / 6H / 8H / 12H / 1D / 3D / 1W / 1M) rendered as tertiary text links, active timeframe at `--primary` yellow. Chart-type toggle (Original / TradingView / Depth). Indicators / drawing tools / fullscreen / settings icons in the top-right cluster. Body is a TradingView-style candlestick render — green/red bodies with thin centre wicks; horizontal gridlines at `--brand-hairline-on-dark` opacity 0.4; right-edge price-scale + left-edge time-scale at 10px `--muted-foreground`. Crosshair on hover. Volume histogram at the bottom of the chart pane, scaled at ~1/4 the candle pane height. +**States:** default + crosshair-on-hover. + +### Depth chart +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/trade/BTC_USDT` — selectable from the chart-type toggle above. +**Description:** Two stacked area charts mirrored at the current price — bid side (green-up) on the left filling toward the right, ask side (red-down) on the right filling toward the left. Y-axis: cumulative volume. X-axis: price. Translucent fill (~0.3 opacity); solid stroke at the area edge. Mouse-hover reveals a tooltip with price + cumulative-volume readout. Same chart container chrome (toolbar, card) as the candlestick variant. +**States:** default + hover. + +### Trade history panel +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/trade/BTC_USDT` — right column, below the orderbook. +**Description:** Tabular: `Price | Amount (BTC) | Time`. Price column green/red per semantic; rows stream in real-time with new entries fading in at the top. Same 12px font / tnum / 24px row height as the orderbook. Column headers at 10px uppercase eyebrow with 0.06em tracking. Hover reveals a row-level expand into "your last trade" detail if the user owns one. +**States:** default + new-row-flash + hover. + +### Trading-pair selector +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/trade/BTC_USDT` — top-left of the trading screen. +**Description:** Compact pair chip displaying the current symbol (`BTC/USDT`) at 16px / weight 700 with a small chevron-down. Clicking opens a dropdown panel anchored beneath the chip: tab navigation across `Favorites`, `USDT`, `FDUSD`, `USDC`, `BNB`, `BTC`, `ETH`, `Innovation Zone`, `ALPHA`. Inside each tab a searchable table: Pair / Price / 24h Change. Hovering a row tints `--brand-surface-elevated-dark`; clicking navigates to that pair's trade screen. Star icon on each row toggles favourite status (filled yellow when starred). +**States:** default + open-dropdown + hover + favourited sampled. + +### Buy / Sell order form +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/trade/BTC_USDT` — bottom of right column. +**Description:** Tab-strip across the top: `Spot | Cross 3x | Isolated 10x | Grid`. Inside Spot tab: side toggle `Buy / Sell` rendered as two pill buttons — Buy fills `--brand-trading-up` (green) when active, Sell fills `--brand-trading-down` (red) when active. Below: order-type tabs `Limit / Market / Stop Limit / OCO / Trailing Stop`. Form fields: Price (`USDT`), Amount (`BTC`), Total (`USDT`), each as a bordered input with `--brand-hairline-on-dark` border and `tabular-nums`. Percentage slider (25% / 50% / 75% / 100%) for amount sizing — sliding fills the bar with `--brand-trading-up` on buy, `--brand-trading-down` on sell. Available-balance row at the bottom (`Avbl 0.00000000 USDT`). Submit button at full panel width: `Buy BTC` green or `Sell BTC` red, 48px tall, label weight 700. +**States:** default + buy/sell active + input-focus + submit-disabled sampled. + +### Asset balance row (signed-in) +**Status:** not-observed-2026-05 +**Live source:** would render in `/en/wallet/account/main` behind sign-in; not reachable this cycle. +**Description:** Row layout — asset glyph + ticker + name + total balance + available balance + in-order + USD value + action buttons (Deposit / Withdraw / Convert / Earn). Marked as expected-but-not-sampled. +**States:** — + +### Market-list table +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/markets/overview` — main table body. +**Description:** Tabular layout on light canvas. Columns: `Name | Last Price | 24h Change | 24h Volume | Market Cap | Last 7 Days (sparkline) | Action`. Row height ~56px. Asset glyph (24px circular logo from `bin.bnbstatic.com/static/assets/logos/[TICKER].png`) + name (e.g. `Bitcoin`) + ticker (e.g. `BTC`) in the first column. Numeric columns right-aligned with `tnum`. 24h Change column green for positive / red for negative, no chip background — just text colour. Sparkline column renders a 7-day price line in green-up / red-down. Action column: `Trade` text link in `--brand-info` blue. Row hover tints `--muted` background. Filter chip row above: `Overview / Trading Data / AI Select / Token Unlock`, plus secondary chips `Favorite / Cryptos / Spot / Futures / Alpha / New / Zones`. Standard pagination footer (`1 2 3 4 5 ... 15`). +**States:** default + hover + sort-active sampled. + +### Asset symbol chip +**Status:** current +**Live source:** every market-list row, every trading-pair selector entry. +**Description:** 24px circular badge (image asset from `bin.bnbstatic.com/static/assets/logos/[TICKER].png`) at left, ticker symbol (e.g. `BTC`) at right in BinanceNova 14px / weight 600. The badge is monochrome for stablecoins (`USDT` grey/green), full-colour for major coins (`BTC` orange, `ETH` purple-blue), monochrome-ink for newer listings. Used inline in market-list rows and in trading-pair dropdowns. +**States:** default + favourited (yellow star prefix) sampled. + +### Sparkline +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/markets/overview` — `Last 7 Days` column on each market-list row. +**Description:** 96×24px inline SVG line chart, no axis labels, no gridlines. Stroke colour reflects the 7-day net direction — green for net-positive periods, red for net-negative. Stroke width ~1.5px. Renders trend, not value. +**States:** default sampled. + +### Percentage delta cell (semantic colour text) +**Status:** current +**Live source:** every market-list row, every position-table row, every PnL cell on the trade screen. +**Description:** Text-only treatment: `+X.XX%` or `-X.XX%` rendered in `--brand-trading-up` or `--brand-trading-down`, preserving the `+` or `-` prefix. No chip background. Font matches surrounding row content. Distinct from category badges (see below) — the percentage delta carries semantic colour as text. +**States:** default. + +### Filter chip — strong active (table tabs) +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/markets/overview` — `Overview / Trading Data / AI Select / Token Unlock` top tabs. +**Description:** Underline-active pattern — text label at 14px / weight 500. Active tab gains a 2px `--primary` yellow underline beneath the label; inactive tabs have no underline. Tabs sit above the table with `border-bottom: 1px solid --brand-hairline-on-light`; the active underline is `border-bottom: 2px solid --primary` rendered on a child element so it stacks on the hairline. Hover lifts inactive label colour from `--muted-foreground` to `--foreground`. +**States:** default + active + hover. + +### VIP tier table +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/fee/schedule` — main content. +**Description:** Wide table — `Level | 30d Trade Volume (BUSD) | & | BNB Balance | Spot Maker / Taker | Spot Maker / Taker (with BNB 25% off) | USDC Maker / Taker`. Ten rows: `Regular User`, `VIP 0` through `VIP 9`. Each row has alternating `--brand-surface-soft-light` background (subtle zebra). Tier-label column is plain text (`VIP 5`) — the brand does *not* use chromatic tier badges, unlike Bybit / OKX competitors. Fee values formatted as `0.1000% / 0.1000%` (maker / taker separated by slash) in tabular-nums. Standard table chrome — no fills, no shadows, only hairline borders. +**States:** default. Hover does not change row state (read-only reference table). + +### Big-number stat block +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/about` — three-stat band (`$65 bn` daily volume, `300 bn` spot transactions, `24/7` support); `/en/careers` — three-stat band (`110+` nationalities, `5000+` employees, `100+` locations). +**Description:** Three columns. Each column: large number at 64px / weight 700 / `--brand-on-dark` ink, centred; label below at 16px / weight 400 / `--brand-body` (slightly muted). No icon, no fill, no border. The big-number style is the brand's only "marketing decoration" — outside this pattern, marketing pages are sparse. +**States:** default. + +### Editorial article card (Academy) +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/academy` — three-column article grids (Crypto for Beginners / Crypto Trading / Trending Articles). +**Description:** Vertical column on light canvas. Top: 16:9 hero image with `border-radius: 8px / overflow: hidden`. Beneath: difficulty badge (`Beginner` / `Intermediate` / `Advanced` — see Difficulty badge below) at top-left as a small pill. Title in BinanceNova 18px / weight 600, max ~3 lines with ellipsis. Byline row: reading-time icon (`⏱`) + duration (e.g. `7m`) in `--muted-foreground` 12px. No author attribution — Academy posts are unsigned. Card itself has no background fill, no border, no shadow — flat on canvas. Hover lifts title colour from `--foreground` to `--primary` yellow. +**States:** default + hover. + +### Difficulty badge (Academy) +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/academy` — top-left of every article card; also the topnav difficulty filter row. +**Description:** Small pill — `padding: 0.25rem 0.5rem`, `border-radius: 4px`, `font-size: 11px / weight: 600 / letter-spacing: 0.06em`. Three variants: +- `Beginner` — fill `oklch(0.96 0.04 145)` (a faint green wash), text `--brand-trading-up`. +- `Intermediate` — fill `oklch(0.97 0.06 95)` (a faint yellow wash), text `oklch(0.55 0.15 90)` (a deeper amber). +- `Advanced` — fill `oklch(0.96 0.04 22)` (a faint red wash), text `--brand-trading-down`. +The wash-fill + saturated-text pattern is the only place on the brand where chromatic backgrounds appear at low saturation. +**States:** default. + +### Research report card +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/research` — three-column `Latest Insights & Analysis` and `Latest Project Reports` grids. +**Description:** Same vertical-column shape as the academy article card but with a metadata strip at top: hashtag-prefixed tag (`#Macro and Market Insights`, `#Project Reports`, `#Industry Intelligence`) at 11px / `--brand-info` blue, followed by ISO date (`2026-05-22`) at 11px / `--muted-foreground`. Hero image at 16:9 with `border-radius: 8px`. Title in BinanceNova 18px / weight 600. No byline (reports are institutional, attributed to Binance Research itself).

Used as page hero on editorial pages. Maximum width matches the article-grid container (`max-width: 1280px`). Image `border-radius: 8px`. +**States:** default + hover. + +### Square post card +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/square` — main feed. +**Description:** Dark-canvas card on `--brand-surface-card-dark`, `border-radius: 8px`, `padding: 1.25rem`.

Same shape as the Twitter/X verified check — circular outline with an internal tick — but yellow-filled rather than blue. +**States:** default. + +### Bullish / Bearish vote toggle +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/square` — sentiment widget in the right rail. +**Description:** Two-button toggle — `Bullish` (left, green fill on active) / `Bearish` (right, red fill on active).

Numeric value coloured by zone: red `<25` (extreme fear), orange `25-45` (fear), yellow `45-55` (neutral), light-green `55-75` (greed), bright-green `>75` (extreme greed). At 39 the value reads in orange-fear. +**States:** default. + +### Trending-topics list (Square sidebar) +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/square` — right rail, beneath the Fear & Greed widget. +**Description:** Vertical list — each item: hashtag-name at 13px / weight 500 / `--brand-on-dark`, followed by view-count and discussion-count in `--muted-foreground` 11px. Items separated by `border-bottom: 1px solid --brand-hairline-on-dark`. `View More` link at the bottom navigates to `/en/square/trends`. +**States:** default + hover. + +### Launchpool project card +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/launchpool` — `Completed Projects` grid. +**Description:** Dark-canvas card.

Footer row: APR value in green-up, period (e.g. `7 Days`), and action button (`Subscribe` for active projects, no button for completed). Card `border-radius: 8px`, hover tint to `--brand-surface-elevated-dark`. +**States:** default + hover. Active-vs-completed distinction lives in the status badge, not in card chrome. + +### Countdown timer (Launchpool) +**Status:** not-observed-2026-05 +**Live source:** would render on active Launchpool projects; this cycle's snapshot showed completed projects only. +**Description:** Documented from prior live use — six digit cells (DD : HH : MM : SS) in tabular-nums on a dark card-surface ladder, each digit cell ~24×32px with a subtle border. Listed for completeness; flag if a future capture confirms a different shape. +**States:** — + +### Earn product row (savings / staking) +**Status:** not-observed-2026-05 +**Live source:** `/en/earn` returned 404 this cycle; the canonical Earn UI is now reached via `/en/simple-earn` after sign-in. +**Description:** Documented from prior live use — table row with token glyph + name + Est.

The duality `Buy = Long` / `Sell = Short` is reinforced in the button label itself, not just the side toggle. Button height 48px / weight 700 label. +**States:** default + side-active sampled. + +### Leverage selector +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/futures/BTCUSDT` — top of order form. +**Description:** Compact button (e.g. `20x`) at top of the order form. Click opens a horizontal-slider modal: track from `1x` to `125x` (varies by pair), draggable thumb, snap points at common values (1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, 75, 100, 125). Slider track tinted yellow `--primary` from origin to thumb position; thumb is a yellow filled circle. Below the slider: warning copy "Leverage of [X] or higher significantly increases risk" in `--brand-trading-down` red when above 50x. +**States:** default + open-modal + dragging + above-threshold-warning sampled. + +### Margin mode toggle (Cross / Isolated) +**Status:** current +**Live source:** `/en/futures/BTCUSDT` — top of order form, left of leverage selector. +**Description:** Two-button segment — `Cross` / `Isolated`.

Tooltip on hover explaining each mode's collateral behaviour. +**States:** default + hover-tooltip sampled. + +### Position table (Futures) +**Status:** current (assumed; behind sign-in but exposed for paper-trading) +**Live source:** `/en/futures/BTCUSDT` — bottom-of-screen panel (Open Orders / Position / Order History / Trade History tabs). +**Description:** Tabular: `Symbol | Size | Entry Price | Mark Price | Liq.Price | Margin Ratio | Margin | PNL (ROI%) | Actions (Close)`. PNL column tinted green for positive ROI, red for negative ROI, using `--brand-trading-up` / `--brand-trading-down` on the value text.

All rights reserved`), language selector, currency selector, theme selector, MiCA-compliance notice (small grey text block, 12px).

Dark-canvas; anchors the device-mockup pattern, Android download CTA, Telegram-community CTA. + +## §6 Notes + +- **Two-canvas brand, surface-by-surface (not toggle-controlled).** Trading and corporate-identity surfaces are dark-canonical; transactional, educational, and reference surfaces (academy, research, fee, markets, support, blog) are light-canonical. The user does not flip a toggle to move between them — the route determines the canvas. This is a stronger constraint than "the product has a dark mode" — it means the visual register communicates *what you're doing* (trading vs. learning vs. paying). Preview templates should respect both polarities; defaulting to either polarity alone misrepresents the brand. +- **The footer is always dark.** Even on light-canvas surfaces (academy, support, fee), the footer drops to `--brand-canvas-dark`. It's the only universal polarity-lock in the brand and reads as "Binance corporate identity caps every page." +- **Brand-yellow is single-stop.** No gradient, no ladder of pressed / soft / muted variants — the yellow does one job (primary action / brand identity) at one value. The press-state darkens slightly but doesn't pivot to a different chromatic family. Distinct from Coinbase Blue (which carries a documented secondary ladder for editorial / hover / dark surfaces). +- **Trading green/red is polarity-locked.** The orderbook green and red appear at the same OKLCH value on dark and light canvases. Don't synthesise a "dark-mode trading red" — the brand's choice is to keep semantic colours stable across polarity so a trader's eye locks onto the right colour faster. +- **No monospace family.** All numeric data renders in BinanceNova with `font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums`. Unusual for a financial product and worth preserving — the brand reads more "calm financial editorial" than "Bloomberg terminal" because of this single choice. +- **VIP tier labels are plain text.** Unlike competitor exchanges (Bybit, OKX, Bitfinex) which render VIP tiers as chromatic badges (silver / gold / platinum colour ladders), Binance uses pure text — `Regular User`, `VIP 0`, `VIP 1`, ... `VIP 9`. Don't introduce a chromatic VIP ladder when authoring; the brand's intentional move is restraint. +- **Square verified ticks are yellow, not blue.** The brand chose to mirror the X/Twitter verified-tick shape but render it in `--primary` yellow, presumably to make it clear this is "Binance verification" rather than "X verification." Worth noting for preview authoring. +- **Academy article cards are flat on canvas (no border, no shadow).** The brand commits to flat-on-canvas editorial chrome and lets the image carry visual weight. Cards do not lift on hover via shadow; instead the title text lifts to `--primary` yellow. +- **No customer-logo strip outside `/en` press-coverage band.** The brand's social-proof signal is the `Forbes / Fortune / CNBC` press-mention band on the homepage. There is no `Used by Apple / Google / Stripe / NVIDIA` customer-logo strip on any sampled surface. Preview authoring should avoid synthesising one. +- **Difficulty badge palette (academy) is the only non-yellow / non-trading chromatic in the brand.** Beginner green / Intermediate amber / Advanced red — at faint-wash fills, never as button fills. Don't extend this pattern to other surfaces; it's confined to academy article cards. +- **Brand-X-lift content to avoid:** the SAFU acronym (Secure Asset Fund for Users) is a Binance-internal label; the BNB token name; specific VIP tier thresholds; the specific Launchpool project names; specific staking APRs. None of these should appear in a Halcyon-skinned preview. +- **Audited contrast notes.** On the dark canvas, `--primary` yellow `#FCD535` on `--primary-foreground` ink `#1E2329` reads at ~11.3:1 (AAA). On a light canvas with the same primary, white text on yellow drops to ~1.7:1 (well below AA) — which is why the brand always renders dark ink on yellow, never white. Preserve this regardless of polarity. + +## §Known gaps + +- **Did not reach the signed-in surfaces.** `/en/wallet/*`, `/en/my/orders`, `/en/sub/account`, the post-sign-in `/en/earn/simple-earn` flow, the convert flow, the trading-bot dashboard, and the futures grid-trading composer. The asset balance row, the Earn product row, and the signed-in avatar / account dropdown are documented from prior live use and flagged `not-observed-2026-05`. A future cycle with an authenticated session would reach all of these in one pass. +- **No CSS-bundle introspection.** The CloudFront WAF gates every direct `curl` and even when WebFetch resolves the rendered HTML, its summarisation drops the exact class names + linked stylesheet URLs. Observed values in this brief come from rendered-page descriptions plus the existing `tokens.css` import; OKLCH values for trading-down red and primary-active have been adjusted based on visual reads, but a chrome-devtools session with `evaluate_script` getComputedStyle would replace those reads with exact RGB samples. +- **No screenshot persistence to `temp/brand-refs/`.** `mcp__chrome-devtools__take_screenshot` is not loadable in this environment (ToolSearch returned no matches). A future cycle with chrome-devtools available should capture `binance-style-live-{home,trade,markets,academy,research,fee,about,careers,square,blog,launchpool,support,download,futures}-{light,dark}.png` where each surface supports the polarity. +- **No active-state Launchpool capture.** The current snapshot showed `Completed Projects` only — the countdown timer, the LIVE / NEW status badge, the active-project hero card chrome are documented but flagged for re-capture when a live project is open. +- **Mobile-only chrome not sampled.** The Binance mobile app (iOS / Android) carries trading-screen variants with different density, tab-bar navigation, and gesture-driven order entry that don't appear on web. Out of scope for a desktop-focused web-design audit but worth noting. +- **Sub-brand surfaces not in this cycle.** `binance.us` (US-specific exchange with different available pairs), Binance NFT marketplace (`/en/nft`), Binance Pay, Binance Card. Each carries enough surface to be its own audit; this cycle stayed on the global `binance.com/en` surfaces. diff --git a/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/binance-style/README.md b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/binance-style/README.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..263a399 --- /dev/null +++ b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/binance-style/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,23 @@ +# Binance + +An independent reference for Binance's visual style. +Design guidance and captured sources are documented in DESIGN.md. + +## Preview and reference + +- [Light preview](preview.html) +- [Dark preview](preview-dark.html) +- [Design guidance](DESIGN.md): visual identity and captured sources. +- [Tokens](tokens.css): concrete values and theme treatments. + +Previews demonstrate the system; their content and layouts are examples. + +## Theme usage + +> Apply the Binance reference (`binance-style`) to this artifact.

Overview: The Drafting Page + +**Creative North Star: "The Drafting Page"** + +Blueprint is visualize's technical-drawing register — the aesthetic reference is a navy-paper drafting page with warm-gold ink, the oldest engineering-documentation convention that exists. **Dark is canonical**; the light interpretation reads as a blueprint printed onto white drafting paper for a review session. Borders carry visible cool-blue chroma (not neutral gray) so schematic diagrams read as *drawings on paper* rather than *rectangles on white*. The navy-paper / warm-gold pairing is pre-trained reader vocabulary: the moment the artifact resolves, the reader knows what register they're in. + +This is the system for **structural-explanation and document-register reader-jobs**: Architecture overviews, Diagrams, ADRs, Plan reviews, Roadmap timelines, Org charts, Threat models. The annotation-feel leading (1.15 tight, 1.55 normal) plus slightly looser tracking (0.005em) gives prose a drawing-board-label rhythm rather than a long-form-publishing column. + +Blueprint explicitly rejects: warm-cream surfaces (Editorial / Paper-ink territory), soft borderless cards (the visible grid is the identity), and marketing-register affordances. Pitch deck on Blueprint is the canonical mismatch — engineering tone undermines the persuasive job. + +**Key Characteristics:** +- Dark-canonical navy-paper register; light is the drafting-paper companion (the `:root` here). +- Visible cool-blue chroma on surfaces (hue 240–250, chroma up to 0.08 in dark). +- Warm-gold `--primary` (hue 75–80) — distinct from Deck's warm amber (hue 60–65). Gold sits cooler and reads engineering, not marketing. +- Borders share the surface hue family (cool-blue) — grid-line feel from coloured borders, not neutral gray. +- Annotation-feel typography: leading 1.15 / 1.55, tracking 0.005em looser than Clean. Reads as drawing-board labels, not magazine column. +- Minimal radius (0.25rem) — drawings have sharp corners. + +## 2. Colors: The Navy-and-Gold Palette + +A two-chord palette: cool-blue navy surfaces (canonical in dark, drafting-paper-cool in light) paired with warm-gold accent + a five-stop chart palette that leads gold + reaches across the cool-blue technical range. + +### Primary +- **Warm Gold** (`oklch(0.55 0.13 75)` light, brighter on dark): The engineering accent. Diagram-node fills, callout left-rules, the navy-gold pairing convention readers pre-train on. Distinct from Deck's warm amber by hue (75-80 vs 60-65) and register — gold reads engineering documentation, amber reads marketing pitch. + +### Neutral +- **Cool Off-White Background** (`oklch(0.97 0.005 240)`): Drafting-paper surface in light. Strip to pure white and the register is gone. +- **Deep Navy Ink Foreground** (`oklch(0.22 0.045 250)`): Primary text. Reads as ink-on-paper. +- **Cool Muted** (`oklch(0.94 0.008 240)`): Secondary surfaces. +- **Mid-Cool Muted Foreground** (`oklch(0.45 0.025 245)`): Captions, annotation prose. +- **Visible-Chroma Border** (`oklch(0.85 0.015 240)`): Border tokens share the surface hue family. Cool-blue, not neutral gray. + +### State +- **Blueprint Red** (`oklch(0.55 0.22 25)`): Destructive actions. Restrained warm coal-red — Blueprint's reader-job calls for clinical contrast, not alarm-shop saturation. + +### Chart Palette (technical-cool range) +- **`--chart-1` Gold** (`oklch(0.55 0.13 75)`, matches `--primary`), **`--chart-2` Blue** (`oklch(0.50 0.12 230)`), **`--chart-3` Teal** (`oklch(0.48 0.10 200)`), **`--chart-4` Sage** (`oklch(0.45 0.08 165)`), **`--chart-5` Slate** (`oklch(0.40 0.06 250)`): Technical-cool five-stop. Gold leads; cool-blue range fills out. Doesn't compete with surface chroma — the gold-on-navy moments stay distinct. + +### Named Rules + +**The Visible-Chroma-Border Rule.** Borders share the surface hue family (cool-blue, not neutral gray). The grid-line feel comes from chroma-carrying borders; stripping them to neutral gray reads as "navy Clean" rather than blueprint. + +**The Gold-Not-Amber Rule.** Blueprint's `--primary` is gold (hue 75-80). Reaching for amber (hue 60-65) pulls the artifact toward Deck's marketing register; reaching for green (145) pulls toward Terminal. Gold-on-navy is the engineering convention. + +## 3. Typography: Annotation Voice + +**Display Font:** sans stack (Inter / IBM Plex Sans / system sans) +**Body Font:** same sans +**Mono Font:** mono stack (IBM Plex Mono / JetBrains Mono / SFMono / ui-monospace) + +**Character:** Sans display. The annotation-feel comes from leading (1.15 tight, 1.55 normal) and slightly looser tracking (0.005em) — not from a serif or mono face swap. Body reads as drafting-board labels rather than long-form-publishing copy; the rhythm invites scanning more than slow reading. + +### Hierarchy + +- **Display** (sans, weight 600, `clamp(1.875rem, 4.5vw, 2.75rem)`, leading 1.15, tracking 0.005em): Hero diagram captions, top-of-document headlines. Smaller than Editorial's display floor — Blueprint isn't a magazine. +- **Heading** (sans, weight 600, 1.5rem, leading 1.2, tracking 0.005em): Section headings. +- **Title** (sans, weight 500, 1.0625rem, leading 1.3): Sub-section heads. +- **Body** (sans, weight 400, 16px, leading 1.55, tracking 0.005em): Annotation prose. +- **Label** (sans, weight 500, 0.875rem, tracking 0.02em): Diagram labels. Slightly more letter-spaced than body. +- **Mono** (mono, weight 400, 0.875rem): Inline code, technical references. + +### Named Rules + +**The Tight-Leading Rule.** Body leading at 1.55, display at 1.15. Tighter than Editorial because Blueprint's prose is annotation-rhythm, not long-form-reading rhythm. + +**The Looser-Tracking Rule.** Body + display add `letter-spacing: 0.005em`. The slight openness reads as drawing-board lettering rather than typeset prose. + +## 4. Elevation + +Flat or subtle. Blueprint uses cool-tinted shadows (hue 220, low alpha) when explicit elevation is needed, but drafting-pages don't have shadow vocabularies. The structural seams come from visible-chroma borders, not from shadows. + +### Shadow Vocabulary + +- **`--shadow-sm`** (cool-tinted, low alpha): Hairline lift for interactive card hover. +- **`--shadow-md`** / **`--shadow-lg`**: Reserved for floating UI (dropdowns, modals). + +### Named Rules + +**The Border-Not-Shadow Rule.** Blueprint uses visible-chroma borders for surface delineation. Shadows respond only to state (hover, deliberate elevation), never to structural separation. + +## 5. Components + +### Buttons + +- **Shape:** `--radius-md` (0.25rem). Sharper than Clean's 10px and Editorial's 6px — drawings have sharp corners. +- **Primary:** Warm-gold background, near-white text, weight 500 label, padding 0.5rem 1rem. +- **Hover:** Shifts to deep-navy ink background. +- **Secondary:** Cool-muted background, deep-navy text. +- **Focus:** `--ring` (gold) outline. + +### Cards & Containers + +- **Corner Style:** `--radius-md` (0.25rem). Sharper than Editorial. +- **Background:** `--card` (slightly deeper than `--background`). +- **Border:** Hairline 1px in `--border` — visible cool-blue chroma. Card separation comes from borders. +- **Internal Padding:** 1.5rem default. + +### Inputs / Fields + +- **Style:** `--radius-sm` (0.125rem), hairline `--border`, transparent or `--background`. +- **Focus:** Gold `--ring` border + low-alpha cool-blue outline glow. + +### Navigation + +- **Style:** Sans label, weight 500, slightly tracked. +- **States:** Default `--foreground` (deep navy); hover shifts to warm-gold `--primary`. + +### Chart Palette + Diagram Primitives + +Gold-leading technical-cool five-stop. Diagram node fills + callout left-rules pull `--primary` (gold); border treatments + connectors use the cool-blue `--border` and chart-2..5 range. The navy-paper / warm-gold pairing is the reader's pre-trained vocabulary — lean on it. + +## 6. Do's and Don'ts + +### Do: + +- **Do** carry visible cool-blue chroma on surfaces. Hue 240-250, chroma 0.005-0.08 — the cast is the identity, not chrome accent. +- **Do** use the warm-gold `--primary` (hue 75-80) on diagram nodes, callout rules, and the navy-gold accent moment — see The Gold-Not-Amber Rule. +- **Do** carry visible chroma on borders. The grid-line feel comes from coloured borders sharing the surface hue family — see The Visible-Chroma-Border Rule. +- **Do** keep leading tight (1.15 / 1.55) and tracking slightly looser (0.005em). Annotation-rhythm, not publishing-rhythm — see The Tight-Leading + Looser-Tracking Rules. +- **Do** design dark-first. The light interpretation inherits from the canonical navy-paper state. +- **Do** trust visible-chroma borders for surface separation — see The Border-Not-Shadow Rule. + +### Don't: + +- **Don't** use warm-cream surfaces. That's Editorial / Paper-ink territory; Blueprint sits cool. +- **Don't** strip borders to neutral gray. The grid-line feel is identity-load-bearing. +- **Don't** reach for marketing-register affordances — stat-bleed cards, persuasive amber accents, projection-contrast surfaces. Engineering tone undermines marketing reader-jobs and vice versa. +- **Don't** widen the radius scale. Drawings have sharp corners — 0.25rem is the ceiling. +- **Don't** use serif headings or mono headings. Blueprint's annotation-feel comes from sans + leading + tracking, not from face swap. +- **Don't** drop saturated chart palettes that compete with the gold-on-navy surface moments. The technical-cool range is intentional. diff --git a/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/blueprint/README.md b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/blueprint/README.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..d911d4e --- /dev/null +++ b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/blueprint/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,23 @@ +# Blueprint + +A technical drawing design system with navy surfaces, warm gold accents, and +annotation-like typography. + +## Preview and reference + +- [Light preview](preview.html) +- [Dark preview](preview-dark.html) +- [Design guidance](DESIGN.md): suitability, visual identity, typography, and component guidance. +- [Tokens](tokens.css): concrete values and theme treatments. + +Previews demonstrate the system; their content and layouts are examples. + +## Theme usage + +> Apply the Blueprint reference (`blueprint`) to this artifact.

The signature decorative element — the BMW M tri-stripe (Bavarian Blue / Violet / Motorsport Red) — appears on both polarities, lifted from the corporate BMW Bavarian heritage on one side and the Texaco-sponsored Motorsport-team origin on the other, with the centre violet emerging from the overlap of the two. + +The point of this file: capture what is actually deployed.

Brand origin: BMW's Bavarian heritage (the blue of the corporate roundel, reduced one stop in saturation). +- `--brand-m-stripe-light-blue-tint` (Bavarian Blue, highlight): `oklch(0.8383 0.0807 258.3407)` (= `#aaccff`). Live: SVG `linearGradient1161` high stop. Used as the dimensional highlight on the metallic logo; not the flat brand stripe. +- `--brand-m-stripe-violet` (centre stripe — overlap of blue + red): `oklch(0.3507 0.0930 247.3571)` (= `#003d68`). Live: SVG `linearGradient1169` mid-stop. Brand origin: optical-mix product of overlaying the bright Bavarian Blue and the Motorsport Red — reads as deep blue-violet at flat solid scale. +- `--brand-m-stripe-violet-deep` (centre stripe, deepest stop): `oklch(0.2768 0.0720 246.5285)` (= `#002a49`). Live: SVG `linearGradient1169` low stop. The dimensional shadow on the metallic logo. +- `--brand-m-stripe-red` (Motorsport Red, bright stop): `oklch(0.5701 0.2193 28.2068)` (= `#db1e1c`). Live: SVG `linearGradient1133` bright stop. Brand origin: tribute to Texaco oil corporation, which sponsored the early BMW Motorsport GmbH years. +- `--brand-m-stripe-red-deep` (Motorsport Red, deep stop): `oklch(0.5323 0.2052 28.4272)` (= `#c81a17`). Live: SVG `linearGradient1133` low stop. The dimensional shadow on the metallic logo. + +### Documented secondary brand colours + +The M-series performance figure typography and the limited-edition heritage pages don't introduce a discrete fourth chromatic colour — they let the M-stripe carry the chroma against monochrome typography. The closest thing to a secondary brand colour observed in the M-models catalogue: + +- `--brand-accent-yellow` (M3 Yellow Accent interior leather, M Performance brake calipers): not stated as a hex in any sampled page; described on the M3 Sedan page as "Yellow Accent" leather option and high-gloss yellow brake calipers. Treat as a **product/option colour**, not a brand-document colour — do not synthesise a token without a sampled value. + +### Canvas + neutrals + +- `--background` (dark canvas): `oklch(0 0 0)` (= `#000000`). Live: M overview, M models index, M5 Sedan, M4 CSL — full-bleed near-black page canvas. +- `--background` (light canvas): `oklch(1 0 0)` (= `#ffffff`). Live: M3 Sedan, XM, i4 M60, shop — white page canvas with dark text. +- `--foreground` (white on dark): `oklch(1 0 0)` (= `#ffffff`). Live: M5 hero "THE M5", M overview "THE MOST POWERFUL LETTER". +- `--foreground` (dark on light): `oklch(0 0 0)` (= `#000000`) effectively, with the M3 page using "dark grey/black" — exact value not exposed in source CSS. Treat as `#000000` until a sampled value contradicts. +- `--card` (elevated card on dark canvas): `oklch(0.2178 0 0)` (= `#1a1a1a`). Inferred from the M-models index card grid; not directly observed in inline CSS. +- `--card-foreground`: `oklch(1 0 0)` (= `#ffffff`). White text on dark cards. +- `--muted` (sidebar / muted bg on dark): `oklch(0.1591 0 0)` (= `#0d0d0d`). Carried from existing tokens; close-enough match to the visible footer / muted-band tone on the dark surfaces. +- `--muted-foreground`: `oklch(0.5931 0 0)` (= `#7e7e7e`). The mid-grey legal / "European model shown" caption tone. +- `--accent`: not separately exposed in BMW M's surface — the M-stripe occupies the decorative-accent slot, but it's polychromatic, not a single token. Carry the existing `oklch(0 0 0)` value but mark `(synthesised)`. +- `--accent-foreground`: `oklch(1 0 0)`. +- `--secondary` (secondary outline button): inferred white-on-dark / dark-on-light; surface-specific. +- `--secondary-foreground`: matches the canvas polarity. +- `--destructive` (warning-red — shop ZIP validation "warning-red" class observed on `shop.bmwusa.com`): `oklch(0.5308 0.2178 29.2339)` (= approximately the M-stripe red; existing token preserved). `(synthesised — close-to-stripe-red)`. +- `--destructive-foreground`: `oklch(0 0 0)` on light, `oklch(1 0 0)` on dark. +- `--border` (hairline on dark): `oklch(0.3562 0 0)` (= `#3c3c3c`). Carried — close to the observed mid-grey on dark-canvas card borders. +- `--input`: matches `--border`. +- `--ring` (focus ring): `oklch(0.5028 0.1424 250.1265)` (= `#0166b1`). Routes through `--primary` (Bavarian Blue) on both polarities so focus stays brand-true. + +### Polarity-locked surfaces + +The M-stripe colours and the M-mark itself stay fixed across `:root` and `[data-theme="dark"]`. They're identity, not theme-aware decoration. + +- `--brand-m-stripe-light-blue`: `oklch(0.5834 0.1175 250.2006)` (= `#3f7fbe`). Locked. +- `--brand-m-stripe-violet`: `oklch(0.3507 0.0930 247.3571)` (= `#003d68`). Locked. +- `--brand-m-stripe-red`: `oklch(0.5701 0.2193 28.2068)` (= `#db1e1c`). Locked. + +### Hairlines / dividers + +- `--brand-hairline-strong` (dark canvas, ~10% white on near-black): `oklch(0.2686 0 0)` (= `#262626`). Carried — visible at footer dividers and card-edge separators on M overview. +- `--brand-hairline-soft` (light canvas, ~6% black on white): not directly carried in current `tokens.css`; suggest `oklch(0.92 0 0)` (= `#e4e4e4`) for the M3 / XM spec-table row separators. + +### Drift vs `tokens.css` + +Current `tokens.css` treats BMW M as **single-polarity dark** (both `:root` and `[data-theme="dark"]` carry the dark variant; the header comment explicitly notes the dark-canonical hand-edit). The live brand ships **both polarities** across the catalogue. The single-polarity dark file misrepresents half the deployed surface and should be split into a light `:root` + a dark `[data-theme="dark"]` override (per the AUTHORING.md `both` strategy). + +Specific token-level drift to reconcile: + +1. **`--brand-m-blue-light: oklch(0.5027 0.1425 250.0532)` (= `#0066b1`)** — this is **BMW corporate Bavarian Blue**, NOT the M-stripe light-blue. Rename to `--brand-bavarian-blue` (or fold into `--primary`) and add a separate `--brand-m-stripe-light-blue: oklch(0.5834 0.1175 250.2006)` (= `#3f7fbe`) for the actual stripe stop. The stripe is one optical stop more muted than the corporate blue. +2. **`--brand-m-blue-dark: oklch(0.5381 0.1804 258.2969)` (= `#1c69d4`)** and **`--brand-bmw-blue` (same value)** — `#1c69d4` is brighter and more saturated than either the SVG dark-blue/violet stops (`#002a49` / `#003d68`) or BMW corporate blue (`#0166b1`). Looks like a synthesised "more vivid blue" with no documented source. Suggest removing and using the canonical SVG stops (`#003d68` for the centre stripe at flat scale; `#002a49` for dimensional shadow only). +3. **`--brand-m-red: oklch(0.5876 0.2212 29.82)` (= `#e22718`)** — slightly brighter and more saturated than the canonical SVG bright stop `#db1e1c` (delta L +0.018, delta C +0.002). Tolerable, but the SVG stop is the more defensible value. Reconcile to `oklch(0.5701 0.2193 28.2068)`. +4. **`--brand-electric-blue: oklch(0.4641 0.1709 258.4945)` (= `#0653b6`)** — no documented source. The i4 M60 page explicitly does NOT use a separate electric-blue accent ("Looks like an M / Drives like an M" — retains the standard tri-stripe). Suggest removing. +5. **`--brand-warning: oklch(0.8077 0.1662 82.7023)` (= ~`#e3b340`, amber)** and **`--brand-success: oklch(0.6239 0.187 145.9275)` (= ~`#26a64a`, green)** — generic SaaS semantic tokens, not BMW M brand-documented. The shop page surfaced a `warning-red` class for ZIP validation which is closer to the M-stripe red than to amber. Recommend either dropping or marking `(synthesised — generic semantic)`. +6. **`--font-sans: BMWTypeNextLatin Light, BMWTypeNextLatin, sans-serif`** — the typography family name in `tokens.css` is plausible (BMW Group uses BMW Type Next across the corporate web). The live `bmwusa.com` pages did not expose explicit `font-family` declarations in HTML sampled via WebFetch (CSS bundled separately); typography family is asserted on the basis of the carried token and BMW Group brand-doc convention, not first-party observation in this cycle. + +## §3 Typography + +| Role | Family | Weight | Size | Line-height | Tracking | +|---|---|---|---|---|---| +| Display | BMW Type Next | Bold (700) | ~80px (`--text-display`) | ~1 (`--leading-tight`) | normal | +| Heading | BMW Type Next | Bold (700) | ~56px (`--text-heading`) | ~1 | normal | +| Title | BMW Type Next | Bold or Medium | 20px (`--text-title`) | ~1.5 | normal | +| Body | BMW Type Next | Regular (400) or Light (300) | 16px (`--text-base`) | 1.5 (`--leading-normal`) | normal | +| Caption | BMW Type Next | Regular (400) | 12–14px | 1.5 | normal | +| Mono | system (SFMono / Menlo) | Regular | inherited | inherited | normal | + +**Headlines observed verbatim across the catalogue:** "THE MOST POWERFUL LETTER" (M overview), "THE MOST POWERFUL LETTER IN THE WORLD" (M-series search tagline), "THE M5", "THE M3", "THE NEW XM", "THE i4", "KNOW NO BOUNDS / THE LIMITED EDITION BMW M4 CSL". All-caps headlines are the brand's display register; sentence-case is reserved for body and supporting copy. + +**Performance-figure treatment**: numerical figures ("717" hp, "738 hp", "3.4 sec", "3.6 seconds", "3.9s 0-60 MPH", "453 hp") are rendered in large, bold sans-serif numerals with the supporting unit/label set smaller beneath. Treats the number as the visual anchor of the spec section, the unit as caption-scale supporting text. + +The `tokens.css` font stack declares `BMWTypeNextLatin Light, BMWTypeNextLatin, sans-serif` as a synthesised name pair — BMW Group brand-doc convention is **BMW Type Next**, in the cuts Light / Regular / Bold. The `Latin` suffix in the carried token is not a documented BMW cut; it may be a packaging label. The fallback to `sans-serif` is correct and lets the preview render even without the proprietary font loaded. + +## §4 Component vocabulary + +### topnav-bmwusa + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/bmw-m/overview.html` — topnav element (global header) +**Description:** Fixed top navigation rendering on a dark / charcoal canvas with white BMW corporate roundel logo (`BMW_White_Logo`), white wordmark links ("Models", "Build Your Own", "Shopping", "BMW Electric", "Owners"), and a search affordance to the right. Height visually ~60px. No M-stripe accent in the topnav itself — the stripe appears in section headers and badges, not chrome. +**States:** `default` (white text), `hover` (link colour shifts toward the BMW signature blue — `#0166b1` family). + +### topnav-bmwm-mark + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/bmw-m/overview.html` — sub-brand mark (`BMW_M_Grey-Colour_RGB_new.SVG`) +**Description:** Sub-brand badge — the BMW M tri-stripe tucked under or beside the BMW roundel in topnav. Rendered in greyscale on dark surfaces and full tri-colour on light surfaces and in section-header callouts. + +### hero-fullbleed-photo-dark + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/bmw-m/overview.html` — hero band ("THE MOST POWERFUL LETTER") +**Description:** Full-bleed photograph (M-vehicle on track or in motion) consuming the full viewport width and ~75–90% of viewport height. Headline overlays in white display-weight type, anchored bottom-left or centre. No tint/gradient overlay — the photograph's own darkness carries text legibility. Below the headline: short supporting paragraph ("Packed with power and made to maneuver, BMW M excels on the track and in the street") and a primary CTA. + +### hero-fullbleed-video-dark + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/m5-series/bmw-m5-sedan.html` — hero video container +**Description:** Same shape as `hero-fullbleed-photo-dark` but with an autoplay video container (M5 in motion). Aspect ratio optimised desktop / mobile separately. Headline "THE M5" overlays in white display-weight type. "Build yours" + "Shop inventory" CTAs sit immediately beneath the video. + +### hero-fullbleed-photo-light + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/m3-series/bmw-m3-sedan.html` — hero band +**Description:** Same full-bleed photographic treatment, but the canvas around the photo is white and the headline ("THE M3") is rendered in dark grey/black display type. The photograph itself often has a darker subject against a lighter outdoor / racing-circuit backdrop, so text legibility comes from the canvas, not from the photo. + +### m-stripe-section-header + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/m3-series/bmw-m3-sedan.html` — section header decorative bar +**Description:** The signature BMW M tri-stripe (Bavarian Blue `#3f7fbe` / Violet `#003d68` / Motorsport Red `#db1e1c`) rendered as a horizontal three-segment bar above or beside section headlines. Total bar height typically 4–6px; segments visually equal width. The brand's most recognisable decorative element — present on both light and dark canvases at full tri-colour saturation. + +### m-stripe-vehicle-badge + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/m5-series/bmw-m5-sedan.html` — vehicle badge / wheel-arch detail in photography +**Description:** Stripe appears as the leading-edge accent on physical M-vehicle badges (e.g. on the "M5" trunk badge, the "Competition" wheel-arch badge). In digital surfaces this maps to the way the tri-stripe leads a model-name badge or a heritage callout. + +### button-primary-build + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/m3-series/bmw-m3-sedan.html` — "Build yours" CTA +**Description:** Solid-fill rectangular button with subtly-rounded corners. Background carries BMW signature blue (close to `#0166b1` family). White text label, sentence-case or all-caps depending on surface. Padding generous — ~14–16px vertical, ~24–32px horizontal. Used as the primary configurator-entry action across every model page. +**States:** `default` (solid blue), `hover` (slightly darkened / saturated), `focus` (focus ring in the same blue lineage), `disabled` (lower opacity). + +### button-secondary-inventory + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/m5-series/bmw-m5-sedan.html` — "Shop inventory" CTA +**Description:** Outline-style secondary button paired with the primary `button-primary-build`. On dark surfaces: white outline + white text. On light surfaces: dark outline + dark text. Same rectangular subtly-rounded shape as the primary. Used for inventory search, dealer lookup, alternative paths into the funnel. + +### button-cta-signup + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/limited-edition-vehicles/m4-csl.html` — "Sign Up" CTA on limited-edition pages +**Description:** Same shape and palette as `button-primary-build`, but used for "Notify me when available" / "Sign Up" flows on limited-edition launches (M4 CSL, M3 CS, KITH M4). + +### spec-card-tile + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/m5-series/bmw-m5-sedan.html` — "717 / 3.4 sec" spec card +**Description:** Rounded-corner card containing one or two performance numerals in large bold display-weight type, with a smaller label beneath. Cards sit in a horizontal row or 2×2 grid below the hero. Card background: matches the surrounding section (semi-transparent or filled with `--card` on dark surfaces, `#f5f5f5` on light surfaces). Border: subtle / often borderless on dark, hairline on light. + +### model-lineup-card + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/bmw-m/models.html` — "M2 Coupe | 453 hp | 3.9s 0-60 MPH | Starting MSRP $69,000" card +**Description:** Three-segment grid (High-Performance / Electrified-Performance / Performance) of vehicle cards. Each card: large product photograph at the top, model name (bold display type), key performance figures (hp, 0-60), starting MSRP, and a dual-CTA row at the bottom ("Explore" + "Build Yours"). Card background dark on `models.html`, white on per-model pages. + +### vehicle-options-tile + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/m3-series/bmw-m3-sedan.html` — variant grid (M3, M3 Competition, M3 Competition xDrive) +**Description:** Smaller variant tile rendered as a clickable photo card with model name, three to four key specs (acceleration / horsepower / MSRP), and an inline "Build" button. Used to step the buyer between variants of the same nameplate. + +### paint-swatch-chip + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/xm/bmw-xm.html` — 11 paint options including "Sao Paulo Yellow", "Carbon Black Metallic", "Marina Bay", "Black Sapphire Metallic", "Toronto", "Cape York" +**Description:** Small circular or square colour-swatch chip with the paint name labelled below or on hover. Pulled from BMW's CGI vehicle service (`prod.cosy.bmw.cloud`). Used in the configurator preview band and on every model page to communicate exterior paint range. + +### interior-trim-chip + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/m5-series/bmw-m5-sedan.html` — Kyalami Orange / Silverstone leather options +**Description:** Same chip mechanic as `paint-swatch-chip` but for interior leather / trim options. Often a small photographic crop of the actual material rather than a flat colour. + +### tech-spec-table + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/m3-series/bmw-m3-sedan-technical-highlights.html` — full technical specification table +**Description:** Two-column data table — spec name on left, spec value on right (right-aligned figures with consistent decimal/unit formatting). Subtle vertical column divider between the two columns. Alternating row backgrounds (light grey `#f5f5f5` and white) for readability. No card border around the table itself; it sits flush in a content-width container. + +### feature-grid-card + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/m3-series/bmw-m3-sedan.html` — feature blocks describing engine / chassis / interior +**Description:** Photographic feature card with the photograph occupying the top half (often a detail shot — engine bay, brake calliper, steering wheel), a section title beneath ("Performance", "Design", "Technology" — common eyebrow vocabulary), and a one-paragraph supporting body. Sits in a 2 or 3 column grid below the hero. + +### section-eyebrow + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/m5-series/bmw-m5-sedan.html` — category labels ("Performance", "Design", "Technology") +**Description:** Small uppercase category label sitting above section headlines, in regular weight at ~12–14px. Carries the section's domain, lets the headline stay focused on the claim. Often paired with the M-stripe bar (`m-stripe-section-header`). + +### performance-figure-jumbo + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/xm/bmw-xm.html` — "738 hp / 3.6 seconds / 738 lb-ft" trio +**Description:** Three-up performance-figure row sitting immediately under the hero. Each figure: numerical value in display-weight bold type (massive — 40–60px scale), unit/label in caption-scale beneath. Anchors the page's "this is how fast it is" claim. + +### heritage-badge-callout + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/limited-edition-vehicles/m4-csl.html` — "signature CSL badging" / "high-performance legacy" +**Description:** Small badge-style callout pairing a model-heritage designator (CSL, CS, Competition, 50 Jahre) with the relevant model name. Often photographed in physical form on the vehicle and treated as an editorial inset rather than a pure UI element. + +### configurator-launch-link + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/build-your-own.html` — primary configurator entry +**Description:** Routes to `/build-your-own.html#/studio/` per model. Visually a `button-primary-build` instance with the model's specific studio anchor. The configurator itself opens as a full-page tool — not sampled in this cycle. + +### shop-product-card + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `shop.bmwusa.com` — M Performance Parts product grid +**Description:** White-background product card with full-width product photograph at the top, product name (semi-bold), price beneath (regular sans-serif), and a "Add to cart" / dark-fill primary action button. Subtle rounded corners, minimal-to-no border. Hover treatment lifts the card with a subtle shadow. + +### shop-category-nav + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `shop.bmwusa.com` — top-level category nav +**Description:** Horizontal multi-level menu: "Vehicle Accessories", "Wheels & Accessories", "Lifestyle & Apparel", "M Performance Parts". M Performance Parts is its own root-level section, not buried under a generic accessories tree. + +### dealer-locator-input + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/owners.html` — dealer locator +**Description:** ZIP-code input with placeholder "Search by location" / "Search by dealer name". Validation message in red ("warning-red" class observed: "Please enter a valid ZIP code"). Minimal-frame input, hairline border. + +### footer-corporate + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/bmw-m/overview.html` — page footer +**Description:** Dark canvas footer with white text. Multi-column link organisation: Online Shopping Tools, Finance & Incentives, Owner Resources, Social Links (Facebook, X, YouTube, Instagram). Legal / compliance row beneath (Privacy Policy, Terms, Accessibility Statement, Cookie Settings, CA Do-Not-Sell). Same canvas across both light-canvas pages (M3, XM, shop) and dark-canvas pages (M overview, M5) — footer stays dark regardless of page-canvas polarity. **Polarity-locked.** + +### faq-accordion + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/bmw-m/models.html` — FAQ section beneath the model grid ("M model distinctions, track capabilities, all-electric variants, warranty coverage") +**Description:** Expand-collapse Q&A blocks. Question in semi-bold, chevron-right affordance at the right edge that rotates to chevron-down on expand. Answer body in regular sans-serif. Subtle hairline divider between accordion items. + +### "european-model-shown" caption + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/xm/bmw-xm.html` and most other model pages — disclaimer beneath hero photography +**Description:** Small italic / muted-grey caption beneath full-bleed photography noting "European model shown" or "Some images may be computer generated". Brand-legal convention — every model page sampled carries this caption. Sets the photographic-vs-actual expectation. + +### my-bmw-app-promo + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com/owners.html` — "My BMW App" footer-adjacent promo +**Description:** Promotional block with the My BMW App icon, a one-line value claim, and platform-specific download buttons (App Store / Google Play). Used as a cross-link from owner pages and the global footer. + +### page-loader + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `bmwusa.com` (visible class `loader-animation`) +**Description:** Page-load spinner element using the class `loader-animation`. Visual not directly inspected; presence of the class confirms the brand uses a custom-styled loader. + +## §5 Surface inventory + +- `bmwusa.com/vehicles/bmw-m/overview.html` — M overview marquee; dark canvas; "THE MOST POWERFUL LETTER" hero; explicit text on the M tri-stripe meaning ("The Bavarian Blue represents the ubiquitous BMW, the red stands for motorsports, and the violet is the combination of the two"). +- `bmwusa.com/vehicles/bmw-m/models.html` — three-block model grid (High-Performance / Electrified-Performance / Performance); dark canvas; performance figures + MSRP per card; FAQ accordion beneath. +- `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/m5-series/bmw-m5-sedan.html` — M5 Sedan page; dark canvas; full-bleed video hero; 717 hp / 3.4 sec spec cards; Kyalami Orange leather option. +- `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/m3-series/bmw-m3-sedan.html` — M3 Sedan page; **light/white canvas with dark text**; tri-stripe in topnav + section headers; "Build yours" primary CTA in BMW blue. +- `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/m3-series/bmw-m3-sedan-technical-highlights.html` — full technical spec table; alternating row backgrounds. +- `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/xm/bmw-xm.html` — XM page; light canvas; 738 hp / 3.6 sec / 738 lb-ft performance trio; 11 paint-chip swatches. +- `bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-series/bmw-i4-m60/bmw-i4-m60-gran-coupe.html` — i4 M60 (electric M); light canvas; "Looks like an M / Drives like an M" copy; standard tri-stripe (no separate electric-blue accent). +- `bmwusa.com/limited-edition-vehicles/m4-csl.html` — M4 CSL limited-edition; dark canvas; "KNOW NO BOUNDS"; carbon-fiber / matte-black imagery; "Sign Up" CTA. +- `shop.bmwusa.com` — M Performance Parts shop; light canvas; product-card grid; multi-level category nav (M Performance Parts as root section). +- `bmwusa.com/owners.html` — owner portal; dealer locator with ZIP input + `warning-red` validation class. +- `commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:BMW_M_logo.svg` — canonical M-mark with metallic-gradient rendering; source of M-stripe hex stops. + +## §6 Notes + +- **Mixed-polarity catalogue.** The marquee surfaces (M overview, M models index, M5, M4 CSL) ship dark; the per-model surfaces (M3, XM, i4 M60) and the shop ship light. Token surface must support both — single-polarity dark (as the imported `tokens.css` does) breaks half the catalogue. +- **Footer is polarity-locked dark.** Across both light-canvas and dark-canvas pages, `bmwusa.com` ships the same dark footer. Don't lift it in dark mode — leave at `:root` value and treat it as a fixed-dark surface. +- **M-stripe is the only chromatic identity.** BMW M does not run a separate brand-accent palette — the tri-stripe (Bavarian Blue / Violet / Motorsport Red) carries 100% of the brand chroma; everything else is monochrome (black, white, near-black greys for cards, mid-greys for captions). Treat the three stripe colours as the brand-identity palette; do not synthesise additional chromatic accents. +- **Performance figures are typography, not chroma.** The "717 hp / 3.4 sec / 738 lb-ft" trio is rendered in display-weight monochrome numerals, not in a colour accent. Don't tint performance figures the way some auto brands tint stat displays. +- **No electric-blue accent for electric-M models.** The i4 M60 page deliberately retains the standard tri-stripe and uses copy ("Drives like an M") rather than a visual electric-blue treatment. Don't introduce one. +- **The tri-stripe origin is Texaco-sponsored, not purely Bavarian.** Logosbynick / 1000logos sources: the red stripe honours Texaco's sponsorship of BMW's early Motorsport years; the blue is the corporate Bavarian colour; the centre violet is the optical overlap of the two — *not* a documented standalone colour, which is why the centre stripe varies between `#003d68` (dark blue) and a more violet rendering across reproductions. BMW USA's own copy frames it as "Bavarian Blue / motorsports red / violet (combination)", consistent with the optical-overlap origin. +- **"BMW Type Next" is the brand typeface.** Carried in `tokens.css` as `BMWTypeNextLatin` — the `Latin` suffix is a packaging label, not a documented cut name. BMW Group brand-doc convention is BMW Type Next in Light / Regular / Bold. Live `bmwusa.com` pages did not expose explicit `font-family` declarations in HTML sampled (CSS bundled separately); typography family assertion rests on the carried token and BMW Group brand-doc convention. +- **All-caps display register.** "THE MOST POWERFUL LETTER", "THE M5", "THE M3", "THE NEW XM", "KNOW NO BOUNDS". Sentence-case is reserved for body copy and supporting paragraphs. When authoring brand-flavored aphorisms for the preview, mirror the all-caps register on hero headlines. +- **Brand-X-lift content to avoid:** + - Specific model nameplates as content: M3, M4, M5, M2, X5 M, XM, i4 M60, M4 CSL, M3 CS, KITH M4 — these identify specific BMW products. Use generic "M-shaped" content if any vehicle-suggestive treatment is needed. + - Performance figures lifted verbatim: "717 hp", "3.4 sec", "738 lb-ft", "453 hp", "3.9s 0-60 MPH". Use clearly-illustrative numerics that don't match any deployed M-vehicle's actual spec. + - "THE MOST POWERFUL LETTER" tagline — verbatim BMW M property. + - Paint names: "Sao Paulo Yellow", "Marina Bay", "Kyalami Orange", "Cape York", "Toronto", "Frozen Brilliant White", "Bilster Berg Grey" — every one of those is a BMW model paint option. + - Texaco-origin language for the red stripe — accurate brand history, but lifting it verbatim into preview copy turns the preview into a BMW-marketing clone. + +## §Known gaps + +- **Live `bmw.com/en/m` not reachable.** The `bmw.com` primary domain and the `bmw-m.com` alias both timed out repeatedly through WebFetch and curl (HTTP/2 INTERNAL_ERROR and connection-timeout — characteristic of aggressive bot protection on the German-hosted BMW Group infrastructure). All live observations were sourced from `bmwusa.com` (the US-market mirror, which serves the same brand-identity surface on different infrastructure), the M Performance Parts shop (`shop.bmwusa.com`), and the canonical Wikimedia Commons BMW M logo SVG. Per the surface-inventory above, the US-market site carries the same tri-stripe, the same canvas-mix pattern, the same component vocabulary, and the same BMW Type Next typography — so the gap is in coverage of European-market launch surfaces (BMW M Festival, M Power Tour event pages, region-specific motorsport press) rather than in core brand-identity capture. +- **No first-party design-system documentation site.** BMW Group does not appear to publish a `developer.bmw.com` / `design.bmw.com` design-system reference. Token values are derived from the canonical M-logo SVG (`commons.wikimedia.org`) and from inferred observation of the live marketing surface. Brand-doc-canonical values (Pantone, RAL, BMW Group internal token names) are not in the public domain at the URLs sampled. +- **Configurator deep-link not sampled.** `/build-your-own.html#/studio/` opens the configurator as a full-page tool. The configurator's internal component vocabulary (option selectors, price-running-total display, 3D-render viewport controls) was not sampled this cycle; the entry button + the routing pattern are what's captured. +- **`bmwusa.com/vehicles/m/` URLs are 404.** The canonical model-page paths use `/vehicles/m-series//.html`, not the shorter `/vehicles/m/.html` form. The shorter paths in the original task prompt do not resolve on the US-market site. +- **M Festival / M Power Tour event pages not sampled.** These are seasonal / event-period surfaces and were not directly checked this cycle. +- **CSS bundle deep-inspection not performed.** WebFetch returned rendered HTML, not the linked CSS bundles. Exact `font-family` declarations, `background-color` computed values, and `box-shadow` definitions for cards / buttons are inferred from rendered observation rather than from CSS source. A chrome-devtools `evaluate_script` pass on each surface would tighten the §2 palette and §4 component vocabulary. +- **M3-page exact dark-text colour.** The M3 Sedan page renders headline text in "dark grey/black" per WebFetch summary — exact hex not exposed. Treat as `#000000` until a sampled value contradicts. diff --git a/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/bmw-m-style/README.md b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/bmw-m-style/README.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..db0c40b --- /dev/null +++ b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/bmw-m-style/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,23 @@ +# BMW M + +An independent reference for BMW M's visual style. +Design guidance and captured sources are documented in DESIGN.md. + +## Preview and reference + +- [Light preview](preview.html) +- [Dark preview](preview-dark.html) +- [Design guidance](DESIGN.md): visual identity and captured sources. +- [Tokens](tokens.css): concrete values and theme treatments. + +Previews demonstrate the system; their content and layouts are examples. + +## Theme usage + +> Apply the BMW M reference (`bmw-m-style`) to this artifact.

Every BMW corporate marketing and product surface sampled renders on white with full-bleed editorial photography as the chromatic element. Dark canvases appear only inside the BMW M sub-brand (which has its own DESIGN.md). The 2020 brand redesign press release explicitly describes the direction as "pared-down and two-dimensional" with "visual restraint" — the design language puts the chromatic load on the vehicle photograph, not the canvas. + +## §2 Palette + +Each entry: token name, OKLCH value, hex equivalent, and a live citation. + +### Brand primary + +- `--primary`: `oklch(0.5027 0.1425 250.0532)` (= `#0066B1`). Live: Bavarian Blue is the documented BMW corporate brand colour, anchored by the roundel and confirmed in the Press portal article describing the 2020 redesign. It surfaces as inline link colour on https://www.press.bmwgroup.com/global/article/topic/7345 and as the upper-left quadrant fill of the BMW roundel on every header. The sub-brand bmw-m-style/tokens.css carries the same colour at the same OKLCH value as `--primary` — that is the canonical pair to reference. +- `--brand-primary-press`: `oklch(0.4254 0.1156 248.4033)` (= `#00518A`). Synthesised pressed-state stop at lower lightness on the same hue line; BMW does not publish a tokenised press-state value but the corporate ladder reads as a single-step darken. + +### Documented secondary brand colours + +BMW's 2020 brand redesign moved away from synthesised secondary chromatic palettes. The parent BMW brand uses Bavarian Blue as the only chromatic identity; greys, whites, and the photograph carry everything else. The M tri-stripe (Bavarian Blue / Violet / Motorsport Red) is exclusive to the M sub-brand and should NOT appear on parent BMW surfaces unless a heritage or motorsport-adjacent surface explicitly invokes it. Documented for completeness only: + +- `--brand-accent-stripe-violet`: `oklch(0.4492 0.1213 280.3439)` (= `#4A4A96`). Live: visible only on M-branded surfaces inside the BMW universe; parent BMW marketing does not render it. +- `--brand-accent-stripe-red`: `oklch(0.5701 0.2193 28.2068)` (= `#DB1E1C`). Live: same constraint — M-sub-brand only. Kept here as a documentation note, not a parent-BMW token. + +### Canvas + neutrals + +- `--background`: `oklch(1 0 0)` (= `#FFFFFF`). Live: white canvas on every sampled BMW USA surface — homepage, model pages, owners, explore. The corporate identity since the 2020 refresh treats the canvas as a neutral stage for vehicle photography. +- `--foreground`: `oklch(0.2686 0 0)` (= `#262626`). Live: section headings and primary body copy across https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/x-models/x5.html and the 3 Series overview — the heading "THE X5" reads as near-black on white. Note this is slightly lighter than pure ink (`#000`); the redesign favours a softened black for body that holds against high-contrast photography. +- `--card`: `oklch(0.9851 0 0)` (= `#FAFAFA`). Live: spec-callout backgrounds on model pages, "0-60 MPH / Horsepower / Starting MSRP" stat blocks render against a near-white tile that separates from the canvas by less than a percentage point of lightness — the separation is felt through hairline borders, not fill. +- `--card-foreground`: `oklch(0.2686 0 0)` (= `#262626`). Same as `--foreground`; the parent BMW system does not flip text colour between canvas and card. +- `--popover`: `oklch(1 0 0)` (= `#FFFFFF`). Live: navigation flyouts on the topnav (Models / Build Your Own / Shopping / BMW Electric / Owners) render against pure white. +- `--popover-foreground`: `oklch(0.2686 0 0)` (= `#262626`). +- `--muted`: `oklch(0.9851 0 0)` (= `#FAFAFA`). Live: lease-offer card backgrounds on homepage offer carousel are washed to a one-step-off-white before the offer details render. +- `--muted-foreground`: `oklch(0.4784 0 0)` (= `#5D5D5D`). Live: secondary metadata in lease-offer cards — "Per month for 39 months with $6,829 due at signing" — reads as a mid-grey caption beneath the price headline. +- `--accent`: `oklch(0.9851 0 0)` (= `#FAFAFA`). (synthesised — parent BMW does not surface an accent fill distinct from `--muted`; the slot is preserved at the same value to keep the system stable.) +- `--accent-foreground`: `oklch(0.2686 0 0)` (= `#262626`). +- `--secondary`: `oklch(0.9851 0 0)` (= `#FAFAFA`). Live: secondary-button surfaces on https://www.bmwusa.com/owners.html — "Sign in to My BMW" hover treatment. +- `--secondary-foreground`: `oklch(0.2686 0 0)` (= `#262626`). +- `--destructive`: `oklch(0.5680 0.2002 26.4057)` (= `#D32F2F`). (synthesised — error states are not exposed on the BMW marketing surfaces sampled. This is a conservative red-600 calibrated to land at the same chromatic intensity as the brand without invoking the M Motorsport Red, which is reserved for the M sub-brand.) +- `--destructive-foreground`: `oklch(1 0 0)` (= `#FFFFFF`). +- `--border`: `oklch(0.9067 0 0)` (= `#E0E0E0`). Live: card edges on the owners-hub tile grid show a one-pixel hairline against the near-white canvas. +- `--input`: `oklch(0.9067 0 0)` (= `#E0E0E0`). (synthesised at the same value as `--border`; form-input surfaces on the configurator were unreachable in this cycle — see §Known gaps.) +- `--ring`: `oklch(0.5027 0.1425 250.0532)` (= `#0066B1`). Bavarian Blue carries the focus-ring role; the brand uses it as the only chromatic accent in the system, so focus inherits the same value. + +### Polarity-locked surfaces + +Tokens that stay fixed across `:root` and `[data-theme="dark"]`: + +- `--brand-canvas-light`: `oklch(1 0 0)` (= `#FFFFFF`). Live: the photographic-deck rhythm of model pages assumes a white canvas under every vehicle hero; the canvas is part of the brand surface and does not flip under user theme preference. +- `--brand-on-light-strong`: `oklch(0.2686 0 0)` (= `#262626`). Live: heading "THE X5" on https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/x-models/x5.html. Body register pinned to a softened black on white. + +### Hairlines / dividers + +- `--brand-hairline-soft`: `oklch(0.9067 0 0)` (= `#E0E0E0`). Live: section dividers between deck blocks on model pages — single hairline below "Pioneering design and performance" before the next photographic deck. +- `--brand-hairline-strong`: `oklch(0.8452 0 0)` (= `#CCCCCC`). Live: footer link-list dividers; the four-column footer ("The BMW Difference / Experience & Partnerships / Online Shopping Tools / Finance & Incentives / Social Links") relies on the stronger hairline for column separation. + +### Drift vs `tokens.css` + +Real and material: + +- **`--primary` drift (P0)**: current `tokens.css` ships `oklch(0.5381 0.1804 258.2969)` = `#1C69D4`. That is **not Bavarian Blue** — it is a brighter, more saturated, slightly more violet blue (hue 258° vs 250°). Bavarian Blue at the live brand is `oklch(0.5027 0.1425 250.0532)` = `#0066B1`, which is exactly the value the adjacent bmw-m-style/tokens.css already carries. The current bmw-style value reads as a generic "tech blue" rather than the documented BMW corporate blue. Reconciliation: update every primary-family token (`--primary`, `--ring`, `--sidebar-primary`, `--sidebar-ring`, and the `--chart-*` ramp anchored on that hue) to the Bavarian Blue OKLCH. The `--brand-m-blue-light` / `--brand-m-blue-dark` pair carried in the current tokens.css is also misaligned — `--brand-m-blue-light` happens to hold the correct Bavarian Blue while `--brand-m-blue-dark` holds the wrong tech-blue value. Both are M-tri-stripe vocabulary and should not live on the parent BMW token surface at all; they belong to bmw-m-style. +- **`--font-sans` naming drift**: current `tokens.css` declares `'BMW Type Next Latin'`. The documented brand typeface is **BMW Type Next** (no "Latin" suffix) — the "Latin" tag is a packaging label on the OTF/WOFF distribution, not a BMW-published cut name. Same fix already applied in bmw-m-style. Reconciliation: rename the stack to `'BMW Type Next', BMWTypeNext, system-ui, -apple-system, sans-serif`. +- **`--brand-primary-active` value drift**: current `oklch(0.4641 0.1709 258.4945)` = `#1259B5` follows the same wrong hue line as the primary. Should be the corrected `oklch(0.4254 0.1156 248.4033)` = `#00518A` (one step darker on the Bavarian Blue hue, not the tech-blue hue). +- **Synthesised radius extras**: `--brand-radius-pill` and `--brand-radius-full` are both declared at `9999px`, which is acceptable but redundant. The BMW corporate system does not surface pill-shaped CTAs in the sampled set (buttons render as squared rectangles with a small `--radius-sm` 4px corner). Keep as-is for the catalog shadcn surface; flag as not-observed-on-live. + +Cosmetic and acceptable: + +- `--brand-success` `oklch(0.7227 0.1920 149.5793)` (= a documented green) and `--brand-warning` `oklch(0.7686 0.1647 70.0804)` (= amber) are reasonable shadcn-style synthesised semantics; not directly observed on sampled surfaces but not invoking M tri-stripe vocabulary either. Acceptable to keep. + +## §3 Typography + +| Role | Family | Weight | Size | Line-height | Tracking | +|---|---|---|---|---|---| +| Display | BMW Type Next | 700 (Bold) | 64px / clamp ~ 48–72px on responsive surfaces | 1.05 | -0.01em | +| Heading | BMW Type Next | 700 (Bold) | 48px | 1.1 | normal | +| Section title | BMW Type Next | 600–700 | 32px | 1.15 | normal | +| Title | BMW Type Next | 600 | 18–20px | 1.3 | normal | +| Body | BMW Type Next | 400 (Regular) | 16px | 1.55 | normal | +| Caption | BMW Type Next | 400 (Regular) | 14px | 1.4 | 0.005em (slight optical opening) | +| Mono | ui-monospace fallback | 400 | 14px | 1.5 | normal | + +Notes: + +- **BMW Type Next is a variable font** introduced in the 2020 brand redesign. Width and weight axes are exposed; the marketing site appears to use Regular and Bold predominantly, with occasional Light on caption text under photographs. The variable axes enable "real-time typographic adjustments for lighting, distance and digital displays" (per BMW Group communications on the redesign). +- Headings on model pages render in all-caps for the model designation ("THE X5", "THE 3 SERIES SEDAN"). The all-caps treatment is editorial — feature titles inside the deck ("Striking, sporty, stylish", "Pioneering design and performance") use mixed case. +- The previous typeface (BMW Type, BMW Helvetica) was retired in 2020. Any reference to "Helvetica BMW" in older brand documentation is now stale. +- No serif role is exposed on the parent BMW marketing surface. The serif fallback in tokens.css is system-only and does not surface in the design language. +- Body register stays at 16px on desktop; the typeface's optical sizing keeps it readable against full-bleed photography without bumping size. +- The display register avoids ornament — no decorative tracking, no display-only weights — consistent with the brand's "visual restraint" principle. + +## §4 Component vocabulary + +### roundel-mark + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/` — header logo position, top-left of the page chrome +**Description:** The signature BMW mark — a circle divided into four alternating quadrants of Bavarian Blue and white. Since the 2020 redesign, the digital roundel uses a transparent treatment (the inner circle has no white fill) for use on photography-rich surfaces; on white canvas the conventional opaque version is preserved. The mark is monochromatic at small sizes (used as a wordmark anchor on the topnav), expanding to the full circular emblem for ceremonial placements. +**States:** `default` (opaque blue/white on light canvas), `transparent` (blue ring + transparent interior, for photographic overlays), `monochrome-white` (white on dark photographic overlays where the canvas falls dark behind the nav). + +### primary-button + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/` — "Build Your Own" CTA in lease-offer cards; `https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/x-models/x5.html` — "Build yours" / "Shop inventory" deck CTAs +**Description:** Rectangular CTA with a 4px corner radius, near-black `#262626` fill, white label set in BMW Type Next Bold at 14–16px, with a subtle 0.005em letter-spacing on the label. Padding lands around 16px vertical / 32px horizontal; minimum height is roughly 48px. The button does NOT default to Bavarian Blue — black-ink is the dominant primary register on parent BMW marketing surfaces; blue is reserved for the roundel and for hyperlink colour in editorial. +**States:** `default` (near-black fill, white label), `hover` (subtle background lightness lift to ~`#3C3C3C`, no underline), `pressed` (lift cancels and label inherits a slight optical compression), `focus` (Bavarian Blue 2px outline at 2px offset), `disabled` (greyed fill at `#BABABA`, white label at 60% opacity). + +### secondary-button + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/x-models/x5.html` — "Test drive" alongside "Build yours" +**Description:** Same geometry as the primary button — 4px corner radius, same padding ladder — but rendered as an outline button: 1px border at `#262626`, transparent fill, label in `#262626`. Used as the second of a two-button deck on model overview pages. +**States:** `default` (outlined), `hover` (fill becomes a near-white `#FAFAFA` wash, border holds), `focus` (Bavarian Blue 2px outline replaces the standard border), `disabled` (border drops to `#E0E0E0`, label drops to `#BABABA`). + +### inline-link + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.press.bmwgroup.com/global/article/topic/7345` — article-title links inline within paragraph text on the press portal +**Description:** Body-register text rendered in Bavarian Blue `#0066B1` with no underline at rest, underline on hover. This is the only consistent surface where Bavarian Blue appears as text on parent BMW pages — editorial press surfaces use it as the conventional link colour. Note: the consumer-facing bmwusa.com marketing surfaces render body links in `#262626` ink with a chevron-arrow indicator rather than colour; the blue inline link is a press-portal pattern. +**States:** `default` (Bavarian Blue, no underline), `hover` (underline appears), `visited` (no colour change observed; the brand does not surface a visited-link tint), `focus` (2px Bavarian Blue outline). + +### chevron-link + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/x-models/x5.html` — "Explore all offers" / "See full offer details" on lease-offer deck +**Description:** Body-text link in `#262626` with a right-pointing chevron icon at the end. The chevron is stroke-1.5 SVG, sized roughly to the cap-height of the surrounding text. On hover the chevron slides 4px to the right; on dark photographic overlays both text and chevron render in white. This is the dominant link affordance on consumer marketing surfaces — colour is reserved for the brand mark and focus. +**States:** `default` (text + chevron at `#262626`), `hover` (chevron slides 4px right, no underline), `focus` (2px Bavarian Blue outline around the entire link, no chevron transform until released), `on-photographic-overlay` (text + chevron flip to `#FFFFFF`). + +### topnav + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/` — persistent header across the site +**Description:** Sticky horizontal navigation, transparent over the hero photograph at scroll-top, solid white after the first scroll threshold. Five primary labels — "Models", "Build Your Own", "Shopping", "BMW Electric", "Owners" — set in BMW Type Next at 14px Bold, plus a roundel mark at the left edge and utility icons (search, account, locale, cart) at the right. No coloured underline indicates the active section; the active state is communicated by weight/density alone. +**States:** `transparent` (over photographic hero), `solid` (white fill + soft bottom hairline after scroll), `open-flyout` (clicking a primary label opens a full-width flyout panel with sub-navigation in light mode), `mobile-collapsed` (hamburger menu under ~768px viewport). + +### topnav-flyout + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/explore.html` — clicking the "Models" topnav item reveals a sub-navigation flyout +**Description:** Full-width panel descending from the topnav, white fill, soft bottom shadow. Internal organisation is column-based — left column groups model categories (SUVs / Sedans & Gran Coupes / Coupes / Convertibles / Touring / All-Electric / Plug-in Hybrids), right column previews a featured model with a vehicle photograph. Labels at 14px Regular; category headings at 16px Bold; no Bavarian Blue inside, the flyout is monochromatic text on white. +**States:** `default` (open-on-hover or open-on-click depending on device), `hover-item` (a single label gains weight and a 1px Bavarian Blue underline), `mobile` (the flyout collapses to a vertical accordion). + +### model-card + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/x-models.html` — "THE FULL RANGE OF BMW SUVs" grid +**Description:** Photographic vehicle tile with no card chrome — the vehicle photograph is the card. Below the photograph: model designation in all-caps Bold ("X5", "X7", "iX"), a starting price line in Regular at 14px, and a single chevron-link "Build" or "Explore". Hover state shifts the photograph subtly (no scale, no shadow); the tile relies on alignment and whitespace to read as a card rather than on visible borders. +**States:** `default` (photographic tile, no chrome), `hover` (vehicle photograph nudges with a subtle parallax; chevron-link gains weight), `focus` (Bavarian Blue 2px outline wraps the entire tile), `active` (text shifts to near-black emphasis weight). + +### lease-offer-card + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/` — hero offer carousel ("$899 Per month for 39 months with $6,829 due at signing") +**Description:** A two-row card. Top row carries the vehicle photograph at a 16:9 ratio. Bottom row is white, padded ~24px, with a model designation in Bold (e.g. "X5 xDrive40i"), a price line ("$899/month") in display register, terms metadata in caption register ("Per month for 39 months with $6,829 due at signing"), and a single "Build Your Own" primary button. Visible only on the homepage; the card does not appear on model pages. +**States:** `default` (white card on white canvas, separated by a `#E0E0E0` 1px hairline), `hover` (subtle shadow at `0 4px 12px rgba(0,0,0,0.04)`), `expired` (greyed-out treatment when an offer rotation lapses — observed via prior lease-cycle cards; expiry metadata appears in caption register beneath the terms line). + +### spec-stat-block + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/x-models/x5.html` — "0-60 MPH / Horsepower / Starting MSRP" beneath the hero +**Description:** Three-column horizontal stat block on white. Each column shows a numeric value in display register ("5.4 sec", "335 hp", "$66,200") with a caption label in Regular at 14px beneath ("0-60 MPH", "Horsepower", "Starting MSRP"). No card chrome — the block is separated from the rest of the deck by a `#E0E0E0` hairline above and below. Numbers anchor left within each column. +**States:** `default` (visible only — not interactive). + +### section-deck + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/x-models/x5.html` — "Pioneering design and performance" deck, repeated for "A powerfully elegant character", "Elegance and functionality", "Amazing space" +**Description:** The recurring narrative block on every model page. Full-bleed photograph (wide aspect, often 21:9 or 16:9), section title overlaid bottom-left or centred ("Pioneering design and performance"), short deck paragraph beneath in Regular at 16px, optional chevron-link below. The same shape repeats four-to-six times down a model page, creating an editorial-magazine rhythm. +**States:** `default`, `text-on-light` (when the photo's bottom band is light, the title shifts to `#262626`), `text-on-dark` (when the photo's bottom band is dark, the title shifts to `#FFFFFF`). + +### sub-nav-pill + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/x-models.html` — "Versatile / Comfortable / Powerful / Models / FAQs" sticky bar +**Description:** A horizontal sticky sub-navigation below the main topnav. Labels render as plain text at 14px Regular with a 1px Bavarian Blue underline beneath the active item. The bar carries a `#FAFAFA` background that holds against the white canvas via a `#E0E0E0` hairline at top and bottom. Clicking a label scrolls the page to the matching deck block. +**States:** `default`, `active` (Bavarian Blue underline + weight bump to Bold), `hover` (underline appears in `#262626`, becomes Bavarian Blue on click). + +### model-variant-tab + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/x-models/x5.html` — "Core Models" / "M Models" tab pair +**Description:** A binary tab system that splits a model family's variants. Each tab is text-only — no fill, no border — with a 2px Bavarian Blue underline on the active tab. The inactive tab carries a `#5D5D5D` ink, the active tab is `#262626`. Used on every model page that has an M-variant alongside the core variants. +**States:** `default-inactive`, `active` (Bavarian Blue underline, Bold weight), `hover` (subtle ink lift toward `#262626`). + +### footer + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/` — page-footer present on every surface +**Description:** Five-column link grid on white canvas. Column headings — "The BMW Difference", "Experience & Partnerships", "Online Shopping Tools", "Finance & Incentives", "Social Links" — set in Bold at 14px. Link list beneath each in Regular at 14px, line-height ~1.7. Roundel mark at top-left of the footer block. Legal microcopy at the bottom in 12px Regular, `#5D5D5D`. +**States:** `default` (visible only), `link-hover` (underline appears beneath the link label). + +### footer-locale-switcher + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/` — bottom-of-footer locale and unit selector +**Description:** Inline text dropdown carrying the current locale ("USA / English") and unit preference. Visible as a small chevron-down link near the bottom of the footer; opens a modal locale selector grouped by geographic region. +**States:** `default` (text + chevron), `open` (modal overlay with regional grouping). + +### search-affordance + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.press.bmwgroup.com/global` — header search field on the press portal +**Description:** Inline text field rendered as a hairline-bordered rectangle, 4px corner radius, white fill, 1px `#E0E0E0` border. Search icon at the left of the field in `#5D5D5D` stroke. On the press portal it sits inline in the topnav row; on bmwusa.com the same affordance is collapsed behind a magnifying-glass icon that expands on click. +**States:** `default` (hairline border), `focus` (border becomes Bavarian Blue, no fill change), `with-content` (placeholder hides, content renders in `#262626`). + +### social-share-row + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.press.bmwgroup.com/global` — share-this-article row on press articles +**Description:** Horizontal row of share affordances — Email, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn — rendered as monochrome stroke icons in `#262626` at 24px. No fill, no background; spacing rhythm at 16px between icons. +**States:** `default` (monochrome), `hover` (icon switches to Bavarian Blue), `focus` (2px Bavarian Blue outline ring). + +### press-article-card + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.press.bmwgroup.com/global/article/topic/7345` — press release listings +**Description:** Horizontal article preview — small photograph at the left (~25% of card width), title in Bold at 18px to the right ("VISION BMW ALPINA: SPEED, REFINED", "First look at Neue Klasse as SAV: The BMW Vision Neue Klasse X"), excerpt in Regular at 14px beneath, byline and topic tag in caption register at the bottom. Card sits on white with a `#E0E0E0` bottom hairline separating from the next card. +**States:** `default`, `hover` (title gains a `#0066B1` underline; photograph holds), `focus` (Bavarian Blue 2px outline around the card boundary). + +### topic-pill + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.press.bmwgroup.com/global` — topic tags on article cards (Corporate, Brands, Technology, People, Heritage, Motor Shows, Sports, Design) +**Description:** Small rounded-rectangle tag, 4px corner radius, `#FAFAFA` background, `#262626` text at 12px Regular. Used to categorise press articles. No coloured states observed — the pill stays neutral across topic categories. +**States:** `default`, `hover` (background lifts to `#E0E0E0`). + +### breadcrumb-trail + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.press.bmwgroup.com/global/article/topic/7345` — "PressClub Global · Articles · Design" +**Description:** Inline breadcrumb at the top of editorial articles, separated by a middle-dot `·` character. Current page renders Bold; ancestors render Regular at 14px in `#262626`. The middle-dot is `#5D5D5D`. +**States:** `default`, `link-hover` (Bavarian Blue underline on the ancestor links). + +### cookie-consent-banner + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/` — appears on first visit (cookie session not persisted in the WebFetch sample but documented brand pattern) +**Description:** Fixed-position banner at the bottom of the viewport, white fill, 1px `#E0E0E0` top hairline. Title in Bold ~18px, body in Regular at 14px, two-button row at the right end of the banner — primary "Accept all" and secondary "Settings". Dismisses via the standard cookie-consent flow. +**States:** `default` (banner visible), `dismissed`. + +### my-bmw-app-banner + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/owners.html` — "Download the NEW My BMW app" promotion +**Description:** Horizontal promo banner on the owners hub, white fill with a phone-screenshot photograph at the left, headline + body copy at the centre, primary button at the right ("Download the NEW My BMW app"). Sits within the "BMW OWNER RESOURCES" section. +**States:** `default`. + +### account-pill + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/owners.html` — "Sign in to My BMW" topnav entry-point + dedicated card +**Description:** Identity affordance at the top-right of the topnav. Reads as a person-silhouette icon in `#262626` until signed in; on click, opens a "Sign in to My BMW" modal carrying a primary button and a secondary "Register for My BMW" link. +**States:** `signed-out` (silhouette icon), `signed-in` (first-initial avatar disc), `hover` (subtle lift), `modal-open` (sign-in/register modal displayed). + +### model-photograph + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/x-models/x5.html` — every section-deck on every model page +**Description:** The brand's load-bearing visual asset. Full-bleed editorial photography of a vehicle, served via the BMW Scene7 image CDN (`bmw.scene7.com`). Aspect ratios range from 21:9 (deck hero) to 1:1 (gallery thumbnail). Lighting and colour treatment are consistent across the catalog — high-key daylight, neutral colour temperature, single-vehicle compositions. Photography carries the chromatic load; the canvas stays white. +**States:** `default`, `with-text-overlay` (when used as a section-deck hero, copy overlays the bottom-left), `gallery-thumb` (cropped tighter for grid presentations). + +### model-spec-table + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/sedans/3-series.html` — 330i and 330i xDrive spec rows +**Description:** A two-column data table for variant comparison. Left column carries the variant label ("330i Sedan", "330i xDrive Sedan"); right columns carry the spec values (255 hp, 5.6 sec 0-60, $48,000 starting MSRP). Rows separated by `#E0E0E0` hairlines. Numbers anchor right; labels anchor left. No alternating row backgrounds — the table reads as editorial typography on white. +**States:** `default` (visible only), `variant-active` (when filtered to a single variant, the matching row gains weight). + +### feature-deck-title + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/sedans/3-series.html` — "Striking, sporty, stylish" / "More M. More excitement" / "Connect to the thrill of driving" / "Agility comes standard" +**Description:** A standalone editorial sub-heading inside a section-deck. Three or four words, mixed case, BMW Type Next Bold at ~32–40px. Anchored top-left of the deck block, above the deck paragraph. Carries the editorial-magazine voice of the brand. +**States:** `default`. + +### bottom-cta-band + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/` — bottom of the homepage above the footer +**Description:** A four-column CTA band sitting between the offer carousel and the footer. Each column carries an icon (~32px monochrome stroke), a label in Bold ("Design your vehicle", "Shop new vehicles", "Explore special offers", "Shop pre-owned vehicles"), and a chevron-link beneath. No card chrome — the columns are separated by whitespace alone. +**States:** `default`, `column-hover` (icon ink darkens, chevron slides right). + +### bmw-difference-card + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/owners.html` — "BMW Maintenance Programs" / "BMW Genius" / "BMW ConnectedDrive" tiles +**Description:** Vertical card with a small photograph at the top (16:9), a Bold title, a Regular body paragraph, and a chevron-link at the bottom. Sits inside a three-column grid on owner-services and explore-content surfaces. Card boundary is a 1px `#E0E0E0` hairline; corners at 4px. +**States:** `default`, `hover` (subtle shadow lift), `focus` (Bavarian Blue 2px outline). + +### financial-services-strapline + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/` — "All in. Simply smart. BMW Financial Services." +**Description:** A brand-mark-adjacent tagline that appears at the close of the homepage offer band. Set in Bold at ~24px in `#262626` on white, centred. No interactive treatment — purely a brand voice signature. +**States:** `default`. + +### lease-offer-disclaimer + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `https://www.bmwusa.com/` — fine-print beneath every lease-offer card +**Description:** Legal disclaimer copy in 11–12px Regular at `#5D5D5D`, line-height ~1.5. Carries lease terms, mileage caps, residual values. Visually de-emphasised by size and opacity but never moved to a separate page — sits inline beneath the offer card. +**States:** `default`, `expanded` (full terms reveal on click of a "Show details" link). + +## §5 Surface inventory + +- `https://www.bmwusa.com/` — anchors the homepage hero pattern, lease-offer cards, bottom-CTA band, footer, and the topnav across-page chrome. +- `https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/x-models.html` — anchors the models-index page; sub-nav-pill, model-card grid, "THE FULL RANGE OF BMW SUVs" heading register. +- `https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/x-models/x5.html` — anchors the section-deck rhythm, spec-stat-block, model-variant-tab pattern, "Build yours" + "Test drive" deck CTA pair. +- `https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/sedans/3-series.html` — confirms the deck pattern repeats across vehicle categories (sedans vs SUVs); anchors model-spec-table and feature-deck-title vocabulary. +- `https://www.bmwusa.com/owners.html` — anchors bmw-difference-card grid, account-pill, my-bmw-app-banner. +- `https://www.bmwusa.com/explore.html` — confirms the explore-hub routing and the topnav-flyout structure. +- `https://www.press.bmwgroup.com/global` — anchors the press-portal editorial register: inline-link (Bavarian Blue as link colour), social-share-row, search-affordance, breadcrumb-trail. +- `https://www.press.bmwgroup.com/global/article/topic/7345` — anchors press-article-card and topic-pill vocabulary; confirms parent BMW editorial content does not invoke M tri-stripe. +- `https://www.press.bmwgroup.com/usa/article/detail/T0306330EN_US/introducing-bmw%E2%80%99s-new-brand-design-for-online-and-offline-communication` — primary source for the 2020 brand redesign principles (transparent roundel, pared-down two-dimensional treatment, BMW Type Next typeface, visual restraint). + +## §6 Notes + +- **Bavarian Blue is parent-brand identity, not text register.** Across consumer marketing surfaces (bmwusa.com), Bavarian Blue surfaces only on the roundel, the focus ring, and a small set of state indicators (sub-nav-pill underline, model-variant-tab underline). It is NOT the primary CTA fill — black (`#262626`) is. The brand identity carries chroma through the roundel and the vehicle photograph; the surface chrome stays monochromatic. The current `tokens.css` ships `--primary` as a brighter, more saturated blue that does not match either the brand-document Bavarian Blue or the live brand's restrained chromatic posture — this is the most material drift in the system and should cascade to the preview template. +- **Editorial press surfaces use blue as link colour.** The press portal (`press.bmwgroup.com`) preserves the conventional editorial pattern of inline links in Bavarian Blue. Consumer marketing surfaces (`bmwusa.com`) use the chevron-link pattern (ink + chevron-arrow) instead. Both patterns belong to the brand; the choice depends on surface register. +- **M tri-stripe vocabulary is OFF parent-BMW.** The Bavarian Blue / Violet / Motorsport Red tri-stripe and the lighter blue stop (`#3F7FBE`) live exclusively in the M sub-brand. The current `tokens.css` carries `--brand-m-blue-light`, `--brand-m-blue-dark`, and `--brand-m-red` as `--brand-*` extras — these should be removed; they cross the sub-brand boundary and one of them (`--brand-m-blue-dark`) holds the wrong-hue tech-blue value mentioned in the §2 Drift section. +- **Photography carries the chromatic load.** Every consumer marketing surface depends on a full-bleed editorial photograph to anchor the brand mood — the canvas, the typography, and the chrome are intentionally restrained. When designing a preview that demonstrates the BMW surface, the photographic deck is the brand's defining surface, not the topnav or the form chrome. +- **"Joy of driving" is voice-register lore, not surface copy.** The retired marketing tagline does not appear on current consumer marketing surfaces. The active editorial register reaches for "Driving pleasure", "Pioneering design and performance", "Elegance and functionality" — these are the live BMW voice. +- **Brand-X-lift content to avoid in previews**: real vehicle names ("X5", "M3", "i7", "330i"), model designations ("THE X5", "THE 3 SERIES"), lease-offer copy ("$899 Per month for 39 months"), BMW programme names ("My BMW", "BMW ConnectedDrive", "BMW Financial Services"), the "All in. Simply smart." strapline. Halcyon-team content for BMW surface should reach for editorial photography over canvas + restrained typography in monochrome ink — and treat the roundel-shape mark as a sub-brand voltage moment, not a constant fixture. +- **BMW Type Next is a variable font; "Latin" is a packaging-label artefact.** Same naming gotcha already fixed in bmw-m-style. The current bmw-style tokens.css still declares `'BMW Type Next Latin'`; rename to `'BMW Type Next', BMWTypeNext` per the bmw-m precedent. + +## §Known gaps + +- **Configurator surface inaccessible.** `bmwusa.com/build-your-own/3-series.html` returned 404 in this cycle; the live URL routing has moved. The configurator's form-input chrome, option-tile selectors, colour/wheel swatches, and pricing-summary panel were not directly observed — `--input` is documented at the same value as `--border` as a synthesised fallback. Would need browser-driven access through the live configurator (currently behind the bmw.com hostname which timed out for WebFetch this cycle) to verify the form-input vocabulary. +- **bmw.com (German + global) timed out.** Every direct fetch of `www.bmw.com` (homepage, model overviews, news, lifestyle hubs) timed out across this cycle. The US-locale sister site `bmwusa.com` was reachable and carries the same global design system, but locale-specific copy variants on `bmw.com` (German, Chinese, locale-specific lease/offer language) were not sampled. +- **BMW i (electric) hub URLs are stale.** `bmwusa.com/explore/electric.html` and `bmwusa.com/explore/electric/all-electric.html` both returned 404. The BMW i sub-brand chrome (any unique colour-callout, any distinct visual treatment for electric vehicles beyond the parent BMW system) was not verified in this cycle.

    Corporate blue carries every primary CTA. Navy hero band frames the signature moment. The rest of the system stays in cream-tinted neutrals; chromatic excitement is reserved for the blue voltage and the occasional M-red status accent.

Every "weight" the spec asks for ("heavy", "tracking-tighter") is achieved at 400 via size + tracking + uppercasing — never via weight axis. +- Plus Jakarta Sans carries 300 / 400 / 600 (spec §"Style prose" — "Plus Jakarta Sans (weights 300, 400, 600)"). Spec doesn't request the variable axis, so the three discrete weights are sufficient. +- Hero scale is viewport-pegged at `18vw` (spec §"Hero Section" — "size 18vw"). The `clamp()` floor at 5rem prevents the display from collapsing below readable on narrow mobile. +- The hero second line is a stroked outline — 1px stroke in Sage, transparent fill — handled at the CSS level (not as a typography variant). +- All eyebrows / labels / footer-bottom legal lines are uppercase + 0.18em tracking.

Wordmark on the left in Anton 1.5rem (24px) uppercase, 0.18em tracking. Inline link row on the right in Plus Jakarta Sans 0.75rem (12px) uppercase, 0.18em tracking. A "Get in Touch" pill at the far right with a 1px white stroke and transparent fill. The entire bar runs `mix-blend-mode: difference` so links read white over dark bands and invert to black over light bands. No background fill — the difference operator is the chrome. +**States:** `default` (no fill, 1px stroke on CTA pill), `hover-link` (link transitions to 70% opacity), `hover-cta` (pill background flips to white, ink flips to black), `focus-visible` (2px outline at `--ring` offset 3px). + +### Hero outline-text display + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Hero Section" — "Central text: Anton font, size 18vw, leading 0.85, uppercase.

Line one is solid white. Line two has `color: transparent`, `-webkit-text-stroke: 1px var(--brand-accent-sage)`. The stroke is the line's only visual presence — the negative space inside the letterforms is the Navy canvas, the orbs visible behind. +**States:** `default` only — no hover / focus on the display block. + +### Ambient background orb + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Components 2. Ambient Background Orbs" — "Create 384px (w/h) div elements with 120px Gaussian blur. Set opacity to 20%. Apply a CSS animation 'float' moving translateY from 0 to -20px over 6 seconds with ease-in-out infinite loop." +**Description:** Two `position: absolute` div elements at 384px square each, `filter: blur(120px)`, `opacity: 0.2`. One filled Sage, one filled Soft Blue. Each runs a 6-second `float` keyframe animating `translateY: 0` → `-20px` → `0` on `ease-in-out infinite`. Stacked behind the hero text and behind the featured-section grayscale image.

Project cards: 3:4 or 4:5 aspect ratio images. On hover: Image scales 1.1x and a Navy 60% overlay appears with a white circular 'View' tag in the center." +**Description:** Two-column CSS grid. Every even-index card (`:nth-child(even)`) gets `margin-top: 4rem` to create the staggered masonry. Each card is a `position: relative; overflow: hidden` container at 3:4 or 4:5 aspect ratio.

Each row is a flex line: a 40px hairline (1px tall, Navy ink) followed by a 12px gap, followed by the capability label in Anton 0.875rem uppercase 0.18em tracking. On row hover, the hairline extends to 64px over 0.3s. Beside the list, columns 5-12 carry a 6xl Plus Jakarta Sans 300-weight heading with italicised Taupe-coloured accent words inline. +**States:** `default` (hairline 40px), `hover` (hairline 64px, label colour shifts from Taupe to Navy). + +### Capability-band heading with italic accents + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** spec §"Capabilities Section" — "Columns 5-12: Large 6xl light-weight heading with italicized accent words in Taupe." +**Description:** Plus Jakarta Sans 300 at 6xl (clamp 2.25rem → 4rem).

Holds two-letter Anton initials in `--brand-canvas-night` ink. +**States:** `default`. + +## §5 Surface inventory + +The spec enumerates seven sections; no live URL or imagery exists. Each section contributes a discrete component subset: + +- spec §"Navigation" — mix-blend nav, Get in Touch stroke pill, brand wordmark in Anton +- spec §"Hero Section" — outline-text display, ambient orbs, bouncing circle arrow, Taupe muted-body +- spec §"Portfolio Grid" — masonry card, hover-reveal VIEW badge, section heading type +- spec §"Featured Asymmetric Section" — asymmetric pair, decorative offset square, grayscale image, Sage eyebrow, arrow-shift link +- spec §"Capabilities Section" — capability label, capabilities list row, capability-band heading with italic accents +- spec §"Testimonial Carousel" — testimonial quote card, decorative quote-glyph background, avatar disc +- spec §"Footer" — footer headline + email link, footer-bottom legal row + +## §6 Notes + +- **Distinct from the existing `editorial` system.** `editorial` is a serif-display + warm-cream + deep-navy long-form-reading register, optimised for prose. `bold-editorial` is a sans-display brutalist + Navy / Sage portfolio register, optimised for photographic-presentation. The two share an editorial register name but ship different vocabularies — different display family (serif vs Anton sans), different palette anchor (warm cream vs cool navy), different signature surfaces (long-form reading vs masonry image grid + outline-stroke display type). Document both in the catalog because the register-family is large enough to carry two divergent voices. + +- **Polarity-locked surfaces.** The Navy hero / featured / footer canvas, the Charcoal testimonial canvas, and the White portfolio canvas all stay polarity-locked across `:root` and `[data-theme="dark"]`. The alternation between them is the spec's defining structural pattern — the dark mode flips the *light* surface (capabilities band, portfolio band background, white card fills) to Navy / Charcoal, but keeps the dark surfaces as Navy. Specifically: `--brand-canvas-night`, `--brand-canvas-charcoal`, `--brand-canvas-paper`, `--brand-on-dark`, `--brand-on-light` do NOT lift in `[data-theme="dark"]`. + +- **Mix-blend-mode caveat.** The fixed nav uses `mix-blend-mode: difference` to invert against the band it sits over. This breaks down on busy hero imagery or on low-contrast backgrounds. The spec assumes solid-coloured bands; if a future content surface ships textured / photographic top bands, the nav needs a fallback (solid backdrop appearing on scroll, or a polarity-locked white nav above 16px scroll). + +- **Anton at 18vw mobile.** The hero display at `18vw` works on desktop but produces an ~70px display at 390px (iPhone 13). That's still readable, but tight. The clamp() lower bound at 5rem (80px) protects against narrower devices. + +- **Brand-X-lift content to avoid when authoring previews.** The source spec is portfolio-shaped — it implicitly imagines architecture / agency / design-studio client names. Do not lift any client names, project titles, or portfolio captions from real architecture firms or design agencies into the preview. The Halcyon-team content rule applies — Halcyon's team using the bold-editorial register, neutral SaaS work, no real client names, no architecture-portfolio body copy. The signature mockup is the portfolio grid with the VIEW hover, not a clone of any real agency's case-study page. + +- **`prefers-reduced-motion`.** The system carries four motion surfaces — ambient orbs, scroll reveals, bouncing arrow, image hover scale. All four must honour `prefers-reduced-motion: reduce`. The crosshair cursor is not a motion surface but is decorative-only; pointer affordances on links and buttons override. + +- **Single-character glyphs as decoration.** The 30rem testimonial quote-mark glyph, the down-arrow in the hero circle, the inline `→` on the arrow-shift link, and the bullet glyphs in the folio decoration are all single-character pseudo-elements. axe will return `needs-review` on contrast for these; they're decorative and the warnings are acceptable per `AUTHORING.md` §"Detect-clean checklist". + +- **Anton single-weight gotcha.** Anton ships at 400 only. Any code or copy that asks for "Anton Bold" or "Anton Black" is a misread — the perceived weight comes from uppercasing + tracking + size, not from a weight axis. Don't add `font-weight: 900` to Anton declarations. + +## §Known gaps + +- **No reference imagery.** The dispatcher provided no screenshots, photographs, or rendered examples. Every chromatic and layout decision derives from the spec's per-section prose; nothing is sampled from a live render. If imagery surfaces later — a portfolio piece from the original author, a Superdesign Library render — re-derive the palette positions and component proportions against the actual visual evidence. +- **Carousel mechanic unspecified.** The spec names the section "Testimonial Carousel" but doesn't describe transition direction, autoplay, pagination dots, or progress markers. The current §4 entry covers only the static card; transition / control vocabulary is held for a future spec revision. +- **Mobile breakpoints unspecified.** The spec describes desktop proportions throughout. Mobile downscaling — when the 18vw display stops being readable, when the 2-column masonry collapses to 1-column, when the asymmetric featured pair stacks — is held as implementation-derived. Conventional choices (1024px / 768px / 480px) apply. +- **No documented dark-mode portfolio band.** The portfolio canvas is polarity-locked to White in this iteration. If a future spec adds a dark-mode portfolio variant (Charcoal canvas with the masonry grid retained), the `--brand-canvas-paper` lock loosens accordingly. Held as a future-spec gap. +- **Destructive colour synthesised.** The spec does not document a destructive / error colour. The `--destructive` slot is held at the catalog default red `oklch(0.577 0.245 27.3)`; if a future spec adds a destructive vocabulary, replace with the documented value. diff --git a/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/bold-editorial/README.md b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/bold-editorial/README.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..d714662 --- /dev/null +++ b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/bold-editorial/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,23 @@ +# Bold Editorial + +An editorial design system that alternates navy sections with white and off- +white portfolio surfaces. + +## Preview and reference + +- [Light preview](preview.html) +- [Dark preview](preview-dark.html) +- [Design guidance](DESIGN.md): suitability, visual identity, typography, and component guidance. +- [Tokens](tokens.css): concrete values and theme treatments. + +Previews demonstrate the system; their content and layouts are examples. + +## Theme usage + +> Apply the Bold Editorial reference (`bold-editorial`) to this artifact.

Overview: The Manifesto Page + +**Creative North Star: "The Manifesto Page"** + +Brutalist is visualize's raw / high-contrast / grid-heavy / manifesto register — the aesthetic reference is late-2010s web brutalism on a confident day. Pure white background, near-pure-black foreground (oklch 0.10 — not the soft black of Clean's 0.145), a single cadmium-red `--primary` (hue 25, chroma 0.22 — exceeding the usual genre-reflex ceiling by design), hard borders carrying full-strength foreground, zero radius across the entire scale, the tightest leading in the catalogue (1.0 on display), and aggressive tracking (-0.02em) on the manifesto-headline stack. + +This is the system for **opinionated reader-jobs** where the artifact has a point of view: manifesto-style One-pagers, raw-register Pitch decks (37signals-class brand fit), Comparison rolls with binary cell-states, grid-heavy Roadmap timelines, opinionated Release announcements. UPPERCASE display headings at 900 weight are the single load-bearing typographic move; reverting to sentence-case + 700 weight reads as "Clean with red trim," not manifesto. + +Brutalist explicitly rejects: soft / pastel borders, rounded corners anywhere, gradient washes, multi-hue chart palettes, and conversational warmth in prose chrome. The hard-monochrome-plus-one-shout is the identity — anything that softens the contrast pulls the artifact out of register. + +**Key Characteristics:** +- Pure-white background + near-pure-black foreground (oklch 0.10) — harder contrast than Clean (0.145) by design. +- Single cadmium-red `--primary` (hue 25, chroma 0.22) — the *single shout* of colour, deliberately exceeding the usual genre-reflex ceiling. +- Borders carry full-strength foreground (`--border` = `--foreground`) — hard-ruled blocks, not softened gray separators. +- Zero radius (`--radius: 0`) across the entire scale. +- Tightest leading in the catalogue: 1.0 on display, 1.5 on body. Aggressive tracking (-0.02em) on display. +- Hard-drop flat-offset shadows — zero-blur solid-color offsets evoking xerox-poster aesthetic. Cards sit *on* the page, not float above it. + +## 2. Colors: The Black, White, and Shout + +A binary palette: pure-white surface + near-pure-black foreground + a single cadmium-red shout. The chart palette stays monochrome with the red shout cameoing as chart-1. + +### Primary +- **Cadmium Red** (`oklch(0.55 0.22 25)`): The single shout. Eyebrow chip on h1 + executive-summary, primary CTAs, inline emphasis, the rare red-pencil moment. Chroma 0.22 deliberately exceeds the usual genre-reflex cap — high chroma is the *point* of this register. + +### Neutral +- **Pure White Background** (`oklch(1 0 0)`): Body surface. Not warm, not cream — pure white. +- **Near-Pure-Black Foreground** (`oklch(0.10 0 0)`): Primary text. Distinct from Clean's softer 0.145 — Brutalist is harder. +- **Pure Muted** (`oklch(0.95 0 0)`): Secondary surfaces, ambient panels. +- **Mid Gray Muted Foreground** (`oklch(0.40 0 0)`): Captions, supporting text. +- **Foreground Border** (`oklch(0.10 0 0)`): Borders share the foreground value — hard rules at full strength, not softened separators. + +### State +- **Deeper Cadmium** (`oklch(0.45 0.22 25)`): Destructive actions. Same hue, deeper lightness — saturated enough that destructive feels load-bearing. + +### Chart Palette (monochrome + the red shout) +- **`--chart-1` Cadmium Red** (`oklch(0.55 0.22 25)`, matches `--primary`), **`--chart-2` Black** (`oklch(0.10 0 0)`), **`--chart-3` Mid Gray** (`oklch(0.45 0 0)`), **`--chart-4` Light Gray** (`oklch(0.70 0 0)`), **`--chart-5` Dim Red** (`oklch(0.35 0.10 25)`): Monochrome chart palette with the red shout as chart-1. Categorical coding lives in weight + position, not hue. + +### Named Rules + +**The Single-Shout Rule.** Cadmium red is the only chroma in the system. `--chart-1` and the dim-red chart-5 are the same hue; every other surface and chart token stays 0-chroma. A second hue pulls Brutalist into "Clean with red trim" register — the manifesto identity dies. + +**The Hard-Border Rule.** Borders share `--foreground` value (oklch 0.10). Softening borders to lighter gray reads as Clean; hard rules at full foreground strength are what makes the manifesto manifesto. + +**The Genre-Reflex Opt-Out.** Brutalist's chroma-0.22 on `--primary` exceeds the usual ceiling by design. The opt-out is register-driven (high chroma IS the point), but template-by-template the genre-reflex guard still applies — *a Postmortem rendered on Brutalist must keep the calm retrospective register* (no full-bleed red escalate banner, no saturated red-fill destructive section). + +## 3. Typography: UPPERCASE WEIGHT 900 + +**Display Font:** sans stack (Inter / Space Grotesk / IBM Plex Sans Condensed) +**Body Font:** same sans +**Mono Font:** mono stack (JetBrains Mono / Space Mono / ui-monospace) + +**Character:** Sans everywhere. The manifesto identity comes from weight (900 on display, 800 on heading), tightest-in-catalogue leading (1.0 on display), aggressive tracking (-0.02em), and intentional UPPERCASE on display headings + section labels. Not from a face swap, not from a serif. Templates pair heavy weight with the cadmium-red eyebrow chip on opening sections. + +### Hierarchy + +- **Display** (sans, weight 900, `clamp(2.5rem, 6vw, 4rem)`, leading 1.0, tracking -0.02em): Hero manifesto titles. UPPERCASE is the convention here, not optional. +- **Heading** (sans, weight 800, 1.75rem, leading 1.05, tracking -0.02em): Section headings. +- **Title** (sans, weight 700, 1.125rem, leading 1.2, tracking -0.01em): Sub-section heads. +- **Body** (sans, weight 400, 16px, leading 1.5, tracking -0.02em): Paragraph copy. Tighter than Clean (-0.02em vs 0). +- **Label** (sans, weight 700, 0.8125rem, `letter-spacing: 0.04em`): UPPERCASE eyebrow / chip labels. Letter-spaced for the manifesto-chip feel. +- **Mono** (mono, weight 400, 0.875rem): Inline code. + +### Named Rules + +**The UPPERCASE-900-Rule.** Display headings render UPPERCASE at weight 900. Reverting to sentence-case or weight 700 reads as Clean with red trim — see Section 1. The manifesto-headline stack is identity-load-bearing. + +**The Tightest-Leading Rule.** Display leading is 1.0. Tighter than Deck (1.05), tighter than every other system. Headlines stack as a wall of words. + +## 4. Elevation + +Hard-drop flat-offset shadows. Brutalist rejects soft blurred drop shadows — the shadow scale collapses to zero-blur solid-color offsets ("hard drop") evoking xerox-poster / risograph aesthetic. Cards sit *on* the page, not float above it. + +### Shadow Vocabulary + +- **`--shadow-sm`** (`0 2px 0 0 oklch(0.10 0 0)`): A 2px solid-black offset. The hairline manifesto card lift. +- **`--shadow-md`** (`0 6px 0 0 oklch(0.10 0 0)`), **`--shadow-lg`** (`0 8px 0 0`), **`--shadow-xl`** (`0 12px 0 0`), **`--shadow-2xl`** (`0 16px 0 0`): Stepped solid-color offsets. + +### Named Rules + +**The Hard-Drop Rule.** Shadows are zero-blur solid-color offsets. Soft blurred drop shadows belong to Clean / Editorial / Deck; Brutalist's shadows read as risograph / xerox poster, not as elevated chrome. + +## 5. Components + +### Buttons + +- **Shape:** Square (`--radius: 0`). Brutalist has no rounded corners. +- **Primary:** Cadmium-red background, white text, weight 700 UPPERCASE label, padding 0.75rem 1.5rem. The CTA is the shout. +- **Hover:** Shifts to near-pure-black background. +- **Secondary:** White background, black text, full-foreground border. The ghost button with hard rules. +- **Focus:** Cadmium-red `--ring` outline. + +### Cards & Containers + +- **Corner Style:** Square (0). Cards rely on hard borders for separation. +- **Background:** `--card` (pure white, same as `--background`). +- **Border:** 1px or thicker in `--border` (= `--foreground`). Hard rules carry the structure. +- **Internal Padding:** 1.5rem default. +- **Hard-Drop Shadow:** Optional — `--shadow-sm` (2px solid-black offset) gives the manifesto-poster card lift. + +### Inputs / Fields + +- **Style:** Square (0 radius), 1px `--border` (full foreground), `--background`. +- **Focus:** Cadmium-red `--ring` border. + +### Navigation + +- **Style:** UPPERCASE sans label, weight 700, letter-spacing 0.04em. +- **States:** Default near-pure-black `--foreground`; hover shifts to cadmium-red `--primary`. + +### Chart Palette + Inverted Panels + +Monochrome + red-shout palette. Inverted panels ("EXECUTIVE SUMMARY") use foreground-fill background with primary-foreground text — the highest-contrast moment in any Brutalist artifact. Full-red-fill destructive alerts use `--destructive` as a fill, not a red-bordered card; the color does the work. + +## 6. Do's and Don'ts + +### Do: + +- **Do** keep `--background` pure white and `--foreground` near-pure-black (oklch 0.10). The hard contrast is identity — harder than Clean's softer 0.145 by design. +- **Do** use UPPERCASE weight-900 display headings — see The UPPERCASE-900-Rule. Sentence-case + 700 weight reads as Clean with red trim. +- **Do** use the cadmium-red `--primary` as the single shout — eyebrow chip on h1 / executive-summary, primary CTAs, the one accent moment. The chroma-0.22 ceiling-bust is intentional. +- **Do** keep borders at full-foreground strength — hard ruled blocks, not soft separators. +- **Do** zero radius everywhere. Brutalist has no rounded corners. +- **Do** use hard-drop flat-offset shadows for card lift — see The Hard-Drop Rule. +- **Do** invert the executive-summary panel — foreground-fill background with primary-foreground text. Highest-contrast moment. + +### Don't: + +- **Don't** soften borders or use rounded corners. The hard rule + square edge IS the identity. +- **Don't** add gradient washes or backdrop-filter glassmorphism. Cadmium-red is the only chroma; everything else stays monochrome. +- **Don't** use multi-hue chart palettes. Monochrome plus the red-shout cameo as `--chart-1` is the move. +- **Don't** use soft blurred drop shadows. Hard-drop solid-color offsets only — see The Hard-Drop Rule. +- **Don't** soften the manifesto-headline stack to sentence-case + lighter weight. The UPPERCASE / 900 weight / tight leading is non-negotiable. +- **Don't** drop the genre-reflex guard for incident retrospectives. A Brutalist Postmortem keeps the calm register — no full-bleed red escalate banner. +- **Don't** pair Brutalist with conversational-warmth templates (Meeting notes, Onboarding module).

The blue is the brand voltage; the catalog import collapsed it into white because Bugatti's CTA chrome on dark uses white labels, but the actual primary fill is blue (CTAs on white) and the **token** should encode brand identity, not one polarity's text colour. | +| `--accent` (`:root`) | `oklch(0 0 0)` pure black | `oklch(0.5119 0.2643 263.2278)` `#004bfa` | Replace black with Bugatti Blue.

The current verbatim-mirror only matches the imported catalog state, not live brand. | + +The drift is structural — every recommendation routes back to the same root cause: the upstream catalog framed Bugatti as a monochrome dark identity, which lost the brand's single chromatic voltage. The fix is to centre the palette on Bugatti Blue and let canvas polarity flip independently. + +## §3 Typography + +The brand ships three custom typefaces (proprietary, served as `woff2` from `/_next/static/media/` on the newsroom). All three are declared with fallback stacks of the form `"", " Fallback"`, and the live system never falls through to a system stack on weighted text. + +| Role | Family | Weight | Size | Line-height | Tracking | +|---|---|---|---|---|---| +| Display | `BUGATTI_Display`, `BUGATTI_Display Fallback` | 400 | 64–128px headline; 20px ticker | 1.1 (headline) / 1.3 (small display) | uppercase, no extra tracking on large; `0.1em` on small uppercase | +| Heading | `BUGATTI_Display`, `BUGATTI_Display Fallback` | 400 | 20–48px | 1.3 | uppercase typical for section eyebrows | +| Title | `BUGATTI_Display`, `BUGATTI_Display Fallback` | 400 | 20–32px | 1.3 | uppercase common; observed at `.hbxiq01n{text-transform:uppercase}` + display-family pairing | +| Body | `BUGATTI_Text`, `BUGATTI_Text Fallback` | 400 | 14–16px | 1.5 (inferred default `

A `.hbxiq01m{font-weight:700}` utility exists for occasional emphasis but the body / display / monospace stacks all default to regular. The brand's mono-weight discipline is itself a register — no bold display, no light-weight serif fallback. + +Variable axes are not in use. The proprietary fonts ship as discrete weights (regular only in the live preview) without `font-variation-settings`. The previously-imported `tokens.css` token name `Bugatti Text Regular` matches the legacy `bugatti.com` archive naming; the newer newsroom uses underscore-separated `BUGATTI_Text` — both refer to the same family. + +## §4 Component vocabulary + +Twenty-three distinct components observed across the sampled surfaces. The brand has fewer abstract UI primitives than a B2B SaaS catalogue because the consumer surface is editorial / photographic and the newsroom is press-list / press-detail. + +### Top-nav bar (newsroom) + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/` — body header region, classes `hbxiq01q hbxiq01v hbxiq01t hbxiq01u` (fixed top, full-width) +**Description:** Sticky top bar at viewport top, white fill on light canvas with a `0.0625rem` (1px) bottom hairline at `#E1E1E1`. Houses the Bugatti wordmark / Cartouche on the left and a minimal three-item set on the right (newsletter subscribe link, hamburger toggle, locale switch). Wordmark is rendered in `BUGATTI_Display` uppercase at heading scale. Right-side links use `BUGATTI_Monospace` 12px uppercase `0.1em` tracking. +**States:** `default` — white background, charcoal `#3F3F3F` ink; `hover` — link colour flips to Bugatti Blue `#004bfa` via `.hbxiq0v:hover{color:var(--_1h2qup85)}`. + +### Bugatti Cartouche / macaron logo + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/` — `/favicon.ico`, `/apple-touch-icon.png`, `/safari-pinned-tab.svg` (the rendered chrome wordmark is a separate SVG asset in the topnav) +**Description:** The horseshoe-shaped (oval-narrow) macaron carrying the red border ring with sixty raised dots, white interior, and a small inset "EB" monogram. The "BUGATTI" wordmark is rendered separately from the macaron in `BUGATTI_Display` uppercase. The macaron is never recoloured through CSS tokens — it ships as a flat SVG; the only chromatic token in the brand system is the blue, never the macaron red. +**States:** `default` only. The Cartouche is a logo asset and does not expose hover / pressed states. + +### Hamburger menu toggle + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/` — `aria-label="Open the Nav Menu"` in the top-right of the header +**Description:** Three horizontal hairline strokes at the brand hairline weight (1px), monochrome (charcoal on light canvas). The close-state variant uses two crossed 1px lines forming an X at 45°, observed at `{content:" ";width:29px;height:29px;background-image:linear-gradient(#222,#222),linear-gradient(#222,#222);background-size:100% 1px,1px 100%;transform:rotate(45deg)}`. +**States:** `default` — open hamburger; `active` — rotated X close glyph. + +### Primary CTA button + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/_next/static/css/3dff4f6cfe395803.css` — base class `.x2tbhb1` +**Description:** Rectangular, **no border-radius** (`border-radius:0`), 180px fixed width, 12px monospace uppercase label, `0.1em` letter-spacing, 12px padding all sides, 1px solid border, height resolves to `max-content`. The variant on a primary action carries Bugatti Blue fill (`background-color:#004bfa; border-color:#004bfa; color:#FFFFFF`) — observed verbatim on the Usercentrics cookie-consent "Accept" button at `.uc-embedding-accept`, which inherits the brand's button spec. +**States:** `default` (blue fill, white text, blue border); `hover` (transition over 0.1s on `background, color, border-color, padding` properties — animates fill toward black or border colour change observed on `.hbxiq0d:hover{background:var(--_1h2qup85)}` variants); `loading` (`{pointer-events:none;cursor:wait}` at `.x2tbhbh`); `disabled` (`{opacity:.5; -webkit-user-select:none; pointer-events:none; cursor:not-allowed}` at `.x2tbhby`). + +### Secondary CTA button (outlined) + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/_next/static/css/3dff4f6cfe395803.css` — same base `.x2tbhb1` + `{color:#000000; background-color:transparent; border-color:#000000}` variant observed on `.uc-embedding-more-info` +**Description:** Same dimensions and type spec as the primary, but transparent fill with charcoal `#000` or `#3F3F3F` border + matching ink. Border collapses to `currentColor` via `._1fapkmq6{border-color:currentColor}`. +**States:** `default`; `hover` — fills with the brand blue or charcoal depending on context (via the universal `.hbxiq0d:hover` / `.hbxiq07:hover` background-token utilities). + +### Inline read-article link + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/` — story cards, label `Read article ↗` +**Description:** Inline text label rendered in `BUGATTI_Monospace` 12px uppercase `0.1em` tracking, followed by a small `↗` arrow glyph. Charcoal `#3F3F3F` default ink, no underline at rest. The arrow tilts and scales `+10%` on hover via the parent card's scale-transform: `.fz6fqj5{transition-property:transform}` paired with `.fz6fqj1:focus .fz6fqj5,.fz6fqj1:hover .fz6fqj5{transform:scale(1.1)}`. +**States:** `default`; `hover` (arrow scales 110%); `focus` (same scale + focus ring). + +### Press-release card (image-led) + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/` — story grid, classes derived from `._1fz63cr` prefix +**Description:** Vertical card with a 4:3 or 16:9 image on top, metadata block (date + category) below in `BUGATTI_Monospace` 12px uppercase, then a multi-line headline in `BUGATTI_Display` clamped to 3 lines via `-webkit-line-clamp:3`. White card surface on the light canvas, no shadow, no border between cards — relies on inter-card whitespace for separation. Inner padding ladder at `padding:.75rem` for tablet and `padding-left:.625rem` for compact. +**States:** `default` (image at natural saturation, headline at charcoal); `hover` (`transform:scale(1.1)` on the inner image element via `._1fz63cr4:hover ._1bit0r28{transform:scale(1.1)}`, and the read-article CTA fade-in via `.translateY(0); opacity:1` from a `translateY(100%); opacity:0` rest). + +### Press-release card (compact) + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/_next/static/css/3dff4f6cfe395803.css` — class `._12x6osa3` +**Description:** Smaller variant of the press-release card used in cross-referenced "Read more" sections at the bottom of detail pages. Padding drops to `1rem`, headline scales fluidly through `2.125rem` → `2.5rem` → `4rem` across breakpoints (`@media (min-width:1024px)`). Same hover scale on the inner image. +**States:** `default`; `hover` (image transform `scale(1.1)`). + +### Story image with shaped corners + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/_next/static/css/3dff4f6cfe395803.css` — class `.fz6fqj` family +**Description:** Inline image inside a story card. Cards opt into a `border-radius:.125rem` (2px) or fully square `border-radius:0` depending on context — sharp corners dominate, occasional 2px chamfer on overlay chrome. Image overlays use absolute-positioned captions inset 0.625rem from each side with `-webkit-line-clamp:1` ellipsis. Backdrop overlay opacity `0.4` at z-index `-1`. +**States:** `default` (full image); `hover` (caption fades / image scales — same 110% transform as the card). + +### Marquee ticker + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/_next/static/css/3dff4f6cfe395803.css` — classes `.rig4zy` family +**Description:** Horizontal infinite-scroll text strip rendered in uppercase `BUGATTI_Display` weight 400, translated via `@keyframes rig4zy7` from `translateX(0)` to `translateX(calc((100% + var(--rig4zy4)) * -1))` over `5s linear infinite`. The fade-out at both edges uses `linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(255,255,255,0), #FFFFFF, rgba(255,255,255,0))` as a sibling overlay — a polarity-locked white-fade signature that should flip in dark mode. +**States:** `default` (continuous linear scroll). No paused state observed. + +### Section dividing hairline + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** Press-release detail body — `.uv51ow7{border-bottom-width:.0625rem}` +**Description:** Single 1px (`.0625rem`) horizontal rule rendered at the brand hairline colour `#E1E1E1` on light canvas. Used between major article sections and between sticky tab strips and content. +**States:** `default`. + +### Sticky tab strip + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/models/tourbillion-en` — tab classes `.uv51ow1` +**Description:** Sticky-positioned tab row (sticky at `top:0` once `min-width:1280px`) used on model pages to switch between Press releases / Images / Videos sections. Tabs are inline text labels with a hairline underline indicator on the active tab; counts (`[32]`, `[283]`, `[19]`) follow each label inside square brackets. Inner padding `.uv51ow8{padding-left:1rem;padding-right:1rem}` + `.uv51ow9{padding-top:1rem;padding-bottom:1rem}`. +**States:** `default`; `active` (bottom hairline at full ink); `disabled` (`.uv51owe{cursor:default}`). + +### Topic / category chip + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/` — small inline metadata above each story headline +**Description:** Small inline chip-like label rendered in `BUGATTI_Monospace` 12px uppercase. No background fill, no border — the chip is effectively a typographic motif more than a pill component. Date follows in same monospace at the same size, separated by a vertical hairline divider at `1px height:100% background:var(--_1h2qup84) opacity:.4`. +**States:** `default`. + +### Image caption + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** Press-release detail body — captions accompanying each inline image +**Description:** Rendered in `BUGATTI_Text` at body size, sits flush-left under the image. No italic, no smaller scale than body text — captions use the same body register and rely on position + neighbouring image to read as caption. Press-release page captions observed at neutral charcoal ink. +**States:** `default`. + +### Pull quote + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/press-releases/mastering-the-cold-testing-the-tourbillon-sweden` — quotes from Miroslav Zrnčević +**Description:** Distinct from body paragraphs, indented from the left margin, with the speaker's name in `

    ` weight above the quote and the quote body in `BUGATTI_Text`. No quotation-mark glyph treatment, no italic — the indent + the h4 byline carry the differentiation. +**States:** `default`. + +### Definition-list (specs table) + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/models/tourbillion-en` — fuel-consumption + WLTP block +**Description:** WLTP fuel-consumption data rendered as a definition list (`
    `-shaped, model name as `
    ` header followed by `
    ` rows for low / mid / high / extra-high / combined phases). Each model header is followed by a downloadable PDF link in inline text. No table chrome — purely typographic with hairline separators between models. +**States:** `default`. + +### Newsletter subscribe link / inline form + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/` — "Subscribe to newsletter" link in the topnav, also surfaced inline at the press-release foot +**Description:** Inline text link in `BUGATTI_Monospace` 12px uppercase `0.1em` tracking, rendered in charcoal. No standalone newsletter form modal observed in the sampled surfaces — the link routes to a dedicated route. The inline subscribe block, where present, follows the `_1mzo3aq0{padding:80px 2vw 0;width:100%;display:flex;align-items:center;text-align:center;flex-direction:column;gap:2em}` shape — centred column with 80px top padding and 2em gap. +**States:** `default`; `hover` (text colour flips to Bugatti Blue per universal hover utility). + +### Stats / metrics counter + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** Press-release detail body — counts surfaced inline (e.g., "1 / 9 Stories") +**Description:** Position-counter rendered in `BUGATTI_Monospace` 12px with a slash separator between current and total. No background fill, no border. The class `._6rsucyf{gap:.125rem;font-size:.75rem;line-height:.625rem;text-align:left;margin-top:.5rem}` gives the rendered shape. +**States:** `default`. + +### Hero panel (full-bleed) + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** Wayback `bugatti.com/` archive + `newsroom.bugatti.com/` ticker section — class `._6rsucy1` +**Description:** Full-width panel `padding-inline:2rem; padding-block:7rem`, centred column layout (`justify-content:center; align-items:center; display:flex; flex-direction:column; text-align:center`). Variants for height: `._6rsucy2{min-height:50vh}` half-viewport and `._6rsucy4{min-height:100vh}` full-viewport. The full-bleed image slot sits at `position:absolute; inset:0; z-index:-2`; a 60%-opacity black overlay (`._6rsucy9{...background:black; opacity:.6}`) sits at z-index above the image for legibility of the centred title block. Aspect ratio for the inset photo slot is `9/16` (vertical) at `max-width:18rem`. +**States:** `default` (image visible at full saturation behind 60% overlay). + +### Topnav share / social row (footer) + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/` — footer block +**Description:** Horizontal row of five outline social icons (LinkedIn, Instagram, X, YouTube, Facebook) rendered in monochrome (charcoal on light canvas, white on dark). 1.75rem icon size (`._1fz63crd{width:1.75rem}`). Padding around each icon `0.75rem`. No fill, no rounded background — clean outline glyphs. +**States:** `default`; `hover` (icon scales `transform:scale(1.1)` via `._1fz63cr4:hover ._1fz63cra{transform:scale(1.1)}`). + +### Footer link block + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/` — bottom of every page +**Description:** Multi-column footer carrying social-row, locale selector (English / Français / Deutsch — `/en`, `/fr`, `/de`), and legal links (Contact, Legal Notice, Terms of use, Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy). Rendered in `BUGATTI_Monospace` 12px uppercase `0.1em` tracking. Locale switcher is plain inline text, no flag glyphs, no language code badges. +**States:** `default`; `hover` (text colour flips to Bugatti Blue). + +### Carousel navigation indicator + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/` — story carousel — class `._1sufcrq6` +**Description:** Pagination bar rendered as a `15.5rem` × `0.25rem` (248px × 4px) thin rule with a moving fill indicating progress. Sits below the carousel, centred. Margin-top `2rem` mobile / `4rem` tablet. +**States:** `default` (full position track); `progress` (fill animates from 0 → carousel-position). + +### Page intro / centred title block + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/` — class `._1mzo3aq2` +**Description:** Centred title block: column flex with `gap:.5em`, `max-width:45ch` for the body line under the title, `margin-bottom:2em` rule at the bottom. The 45-character max-width is an editorial-reading constraint, not a brand-token width. Combined with `_1mzo3aq0`'s `padding:80px 2vw 0` it gives the brand its centred-block opening shape. +**States:** `default`. + +### Search / inline cookie consent embed + +**Status:** `current` +**Live source:** `newsroom.bugatti.com/_next/static/css/3dff4f6cfe395803.css` — `.uc-embedding-*` classes (Usercentrics third-party) +**Description:** Cookie-consent embeds adopt the Bugatti CTA spec verbatim — `.uc-embedding-accept{background-color:#004bfa; border-color:#004bfa; color:#FFFFFF}` and `.uc-embedding-more-info{color:#000000; background-color:transparent; border-color:#000000}`. Notable as the most concrete documented binding of the brand's blue-on-white primary action and black-outline secondary action. +**States:** `default`; `hover` (colour transitions over `.1s`). + +## §5 Surface inventory + +- `https://newsroom.bugatti.com/` — primary editorial hub (light-canonical). Anchors topnav, hamburger, ticker, story-card grid, footer, marquee, social row, page-intro title block, hero panel, primary CTA chrome via Usercentrics embed. +- `https://newsroom.bugatti.com/_next/static/css/3dff4f6cfe395803.css` — Next.js compiled stylesheet for the newsroom. Anchors the complete `--_1h2qup8x` palette token block, all `.hbxiq0*` palette utility classes, the `.x2tbhb1` button base, the `.uv51ow` tab-strip and `._1fz63cr` press-release-card families, and the marquee `@keyframes rig4zy7`. +- `https://newsroom.bugatti.com/_next/static/css/a3be4ed2502448e8.css` — secondary newsroom stylesheet covering the `_6rsucy` hero / panel rules and intro-block layout (`_1mzo3aq0..2`). +- `https://newsroom.bugatti.com/models/tourbillion-en` — model-aggregated press-release surface. Anchors sticky tab strip, count-bracketed tab labels, definition-list WLTP specs block, related-press grid. +- `https://newsroom.bugatti.com/press-releases/mastering-the-cold-testing-the-tourbillon-sweden` — press-release detail (long-form editorial). Anchors article header / byline, pull-quote spec, inline image + caption, section hairline divider, related-stories "Read more" block. +- `https://web.archive.org/web/20240213062747/https://www.bugatti.com/` — historic snapshot of the consumer marketing home reached via Wayback because the current production sits behind a Vercel Security Checkpoint. Anchors the off-black `#101010` dark canvas, the `--vbox-*` lightbox chrome, the legacy "Bugatti Display Regular" / "Bugatti Text Regular" / "Bugatti Monospace Regular" naming that maps to the newer `BUGATTI_Display` / `BUGATTI_Text` / `BUGATTI_Monospace` family. + +## §6 Notes + +- **Mixed-polarity brand.** The main marketing site and the press newsroom run opposite canvases with an identical chromatic identity. Both polarities are first-class — don't synthesise a dark variant by inverting the light tokens; the dark surface is its own observed system at `#101010` off-black, not pure `#000`. +- **One chromatic.** Bugatti Blue `#004bfa` is the entire chromatic identity. There is no documented racing yellow, no Cartouche red exposed as CSS, no secondary brand colour. The macaron's red ring is decorative SVG, never a token — do not derive a `--brand-red` from the macaron and surface it as a brand colour. +- **Polarity-locked blue.** `#004bfa` runs at identical OKLCH on both white and `#101010` canvases. Do not lift or darken it for the dark variant; do not introduce `--brand-blue-on-dark`. The brand never carries a second blue lightness. +- **Sharp corners.** Buttons, chips, cards all run `border-radius:0` or `0.125rem` (2px) maximum. A 999px pill exists in the radius scale (`._1fz63crr{border-radius:999px}` on a single hover-revealed inner CTA) but is the exception, not the norm. Cards are square-corner by default. A re-skin that defaults to rounded corners reads as wrong-brand immediately. +- **Mono uppercase voltage.** `BUGATTI_Monospace 12px uppercase 0.1em` is the brand's signature label register. Every CTA, footer link, breadcrumb, byline, date, and count label uses this combination. Substituting a sans-serif at the same point size loses the brand entirely. +- **Hairline weight is 1px.** Borders, dividers, and outlines all resolve to `0.0625rem = 1px`. Bugatti never ships a thick rule. A 2px border on any chrome element reads as wrong-brand. +- **Marquee fade is polarity-locked white.** The ticker overlay uses `linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(255,255,255,0), #FFFFFF, rgba(255,255,255,0))` literally — the fade hard-codes white. On a dark variant the gradient stop must flip to `#101010` (the documented dark canvas), otherwise the marquee shows two cream stripes flanking the text. +- **No accent palette beyond blue.** The synthesised `--brand-warning` and `--brand-success` tokens in the imported `tokens.css` have no brand-doc authority. Bugatti's editorial surfaces have no documented success / warning / error register — the marketing surface has no destructive actions, the press surface has no form-validation chrome surfaced in the CSS. Mark these as `(synthesised)` if retained for shadcn slot completeness. +- **Cartouche is sacred geometry, not a CSS token.** The macaron logo is delivered as a flat SVG asset; the red border, the sixty perimeter dots, the EB monogram all live inside the SVG geometry. The CSS never references the macaron red. Do not invent a `--brand-cartouche-red` to "honour heritage" — the brand explicitly walls off the macaron from the live token surface. +- **Brand-X lift content to avoid.** Do not lift the model names (Tourbillon, Chiron, Mistral, Bolide, Centodieci, Divo, EB 110, La Voiture Noire, Veyron) into any Halcyon preview body copy as feature labels. Do not use real driver / engineer names (Miroslav Zrnčević appears as a Bugatti chief development driver in press releases — do not use). Do not reproduce the Cartouche / EB monogram. The brand colour and CTA shape are fine to use; the named hypercars and named people are lifts. + +## §Known gaps + +- **Live `bugatti.com/` consumer home not reachable this cycle.** The site sits behind a Vercel Security Checkpoint that returns HTTP 429 with a JavaScript-challenge bootstrap; WebFetch and direct curl both received the challenge HTML, not the real page. The dark-canonical observation falls back to the Wayback `20240213062747` snapshot, which is a legacy build predating the current Tourbillon launch. A Chrome MCP session that can execute the Vercel challenge would resolve every gap below. +- **Live model-detail pages (`bugatti.com/models/*`) not reachable.** Same Vercel challenge. Cannot confirm whether the current production version still uses the `#101010` off-black or has migrated to a different dark canvas, whether the hero treatment is video / parallax / static, whether the navigation chrome has been redesigned, whether new chromatic accents have been introduced for individual models (e.g., Tourbillon-specific atomic/skeletonised UI cues). +- **Dark-canvas card / muted / border / input values are synthesised.** No live observation of the dark-mode card surface ladder, muted register, input chrome, or destructive register — the newsroom is light-canonical and the Wayback archive predates the current dark-card spec. +- **Variable-font axes not confirmed.** The proprietary `BUGATTI_*` family ships as `woff2` but the live CSS doesn't expose `font-variation-settings`. Whether the family carries weight axes, optical-size axes, or italic was not determinable from the network responses. Treating the family as fixed-weight 400 / 700 only. +- **Cartouche colour values not extracted.** The macaron SVG is fetched from `/favicon.ico` / `/apple-touch-icon.png` / `/safari-pinned-tab.svg` but the binary inspection of the SVG path fills was out of scope this cycle. The Cartouche red is intentionally not surfaced as a CSS token, so absent from the live token observation; an asset-level inspection (e.g., reading the SVG) could surface its exact hex. +- **Search / global filter chrome not observed.** The newsroom surface has no global search bar in the sampled paths; whether the current production newsroom or main site exposes a search modal / autocomplete is unknown. +- **Mobile-specific chrome not sampled.** All observations were derived from desktop-breakpoint CSS rules. The narrow-viewport rules (`@media (min-width:640px)`, `@media (min-width:768px)`) confirm responsive scale shifts but do not surface mobile-only navigation, drawer chrome, or compact-component variants. diff --git a/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/bugatti-style/README.md b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/bugatti-style/README.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..32b8cbd --- /dev/null +++ b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/bugatti-style/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,23 @@ +# Bugatti + +An independent reference for Bugatti's visual style. +Design guidance and captured sources are documented in DESIGN.md. + +## Preview and reference + +- [Light preview](preview.html) +- [Dark preview](preview-dark.html) +- [Design guidance](DESIGN.md): visual identity and captured sources. +- [Tokens](tokens.css): concrete values and theme treatments. + +Previews demonstrate the system; their content and layouts are examples. + +## Theme usage + +> Apply the Bugatti reference (`bugatti-style`) to this artifact.

    Halcyon's platform reads like a specification sheet — every measurement intentional, every margin calibrated, every type setting set once and never adjusted. The system trusts whitespace and engineering numerals to do the work that another brand would delegate to colour.

    The palette is the absence of palette. Near-pure black canvas; the only other surfaces are progressive elevation steps in nearly-black gray. There is no accent colour, no chrome, no decorative tint. Type and whitespace carry the entire system.

The marketing site (`cal.com/*`) is light-canonical on a warm near-white canvas with white cards floated above and near-black filled CTAs. The product surface (`app.cal.com`, `i.cal.com/` booking pages, and the docs at `cal.com/docs`) is dark-canonical on a flat near-black canvas with white pill CTAs and an accent green for state. The Cal.ai sub-brand (`cal.com/ai`) is its own polarity again — a deep desaturated indigo canvas (`#0d0c27`) with a violet primary (`#6349ea`) that doesn't appear on either of the other two surfaces. Because the brand ships all three deliberately — and the booking page is the brand's voltage moment in dark, while the homepage is light — the catalog entry is `canonical-canvas: both`. + +The marketing site is built in Framer; computed styles expose the Framer class chain (`framer-VNXTl framer-txrinh`) and the brand's own typeface families ("Cal Sans", "Cal Sans UI Variable Light", and several display/UI variants). Cal Sans carries the identity across every surface — wordmark in the topnav, every heading, every short pill label. + +## §1 Canonical canvas + +| Surface | URL | Canvas | Notes | +|---|---|---|---| +| Marketing home | https://cal.com/ | `#f4f4f4` warm light gray with `#fff` cards | Hero is plain text on canvas (no gradient), the signature card is a booking widget (avatar + event type + calendar grid) floated as a white card | +| Marketing pricing | https://cal.com/pricing | Same canvas + white tier cards | Four tiers (Individuals/Free, Teams, Organizations, Enterprise via Talk-to-sales) presented as boxed white cards in a vertical stack on mobile, presumably columns wider | +| Marketing enterprise | https://cal.com/enterprise | Same canvas + numbered white feature cards (`01`, `02`, `03` eyebrow) | Each card carries a dashboard mockup (Insights screenshot, SLA "All systems operational" green bars, security ring diagram) | +| Marketing customers | https://cal.com/customers | Same canvas + customer-logo lockup cards | Each card pairs the Cal wordmark with a customer logo (Manifest Law, etc.) on a 4-corner-cropped grid backdrop | +| Marketing blog | https://cal.com/blog | Same canvas + post-cover cards | Post covers carry photographic stock imagery with overlaid Cal.com-template title and subtitle | +| Marketing cream interlude | observed across https://cal.com/ deep scroll | `#faf9f5` cream panel | A single warm-cream band that appears as a section interlude — sparingly used, not a full canvas swap | +| Docs | https://cal.com/docs | `#0f0f0f` near-black canvas, white ink | Three-pane MDX-shape docs with a "Cal.com Docs" wordmark composite in the topnav and `Copy page` pill | +| App login | https://app.cal.com/login | `#0f0f0f` canvas with elevated `#171717` card | Form card holds the Cal.com wordmark + Google/Microsoft SSO buttons + email/password fields; an "Add this app to your home screen" install-PWA banner pins to the bottom | +| Booking page | https://cal.com/peer (resolves to `i.cal.com/peer/meet`) | Same dark canvas | The signature surface — calendar grid with disabled days greyed, selected day in white-outlined cell, time-slot list as wide pill rows, header dark-gradient promo banner ("Scheduling infrastructure for absolutely everyone") | +| 404 fallback | https://cal.com/why-cal | Same dark canvas | Carries a green accent — the unclaimed-username headline renders "is still available" with `available` in `#6ce0a2` green; the only Cal.com surface where the green is the focal element | +| Cal.ai sub-brand | https://cal.com/ai | `#0d0c27` desaturated indigo canvas, white ink | Topnav wordmark switches from `Cal.com` to `Cal.ai`, primary CTA flips from near-black to violet `#6349ea`, hero `AI-powered calls` is set in a gradient violet-to-lavender treatment | + +The light marketing surfaces share the `#f4f4f4` canvas + `#fff` card pattern across every page sampled.

Live: `https://cal.com/ai` — the `Try AI scheduling` primary CTA fill, `rgb(99, 73, 234)` from computed styles.

Both are observed as Framer-rendered font families on `cal.com/` and consistently across every marketing surface. +- The variable axis is exposed through named families: `"Cal Sans UI Variable Light"`, `"Cal Sans UI Variable Regular"`, `"Cal Sans Light"`, etc. — this is Framer's pattern for shipping pinned weights of a variable typeface as separately-named families. Treat them as distinct families for `@font-face` purposes; in shadcn-semantic terms, `--font-sans` collapses them all to a single "Cal Sans family" with weight as the axis. +- Body weight is **300 (Light)**, not the more conventional 400. This is part of Cal.com's airy / scheduling-software register — body prose reads as Light across the whole site. +- Heading weight is **600 (SemiBold)**. Cal Sans does not render at heavy weights anywhere on the live site; the brand never reaches for 700+ on display type. +- The booking page on `i.cal.com/peer/meet` exposes the product's own body font stack as `"fontSans", "fontSans Fallback"` — a Next.js / next/font naming pattern that resolves at build time to the same Cal Sans UI family.

Below the topnav, a left-rail breadcrumb (`☰ Getting Started › Introduction to API v2`) introduces the page. Page header carries the section label in a muted accent colour, the page title in display Cal Sans, a one-line subtitle in body ink, and a `📋 Copy page` action pill with a trailing chevron split-button. Body content is MDX-shape: numbered list, prose, fenced code blocks (mono in white ink on the same `#0f0f0f` canvas — no separate code-block surface), inline links in the `#5b93f9` blue accent. +**States:** `default` observed.

Below: a green primary CTA pill (`Register now →`) — the green-on-dark variant of the marketing site's near-black CTA. Then a `POPULAR PAGES` eyebrow and a stack of two card-rows (`Documentation` and `Blog`), each with a leading icon, title, subtitle, and trailing chevron.

Sets the canonical light register: warm-gray canvas, white booking-widget card, near-black CTAs, customer-logo strip, app-store integration grid, step-numbered feature cards, full footer with compliance seals. +- `https://cal.com/pricing` — pricing-tier card pattern, toggle switch (`YEARLY`), check-row feature list, badge pill (`Save 25%`). +- `https://cal.com/enterprise` — feature-card-with-mockup pattern; Insights dashboard mockup, SLA / status-bar mockup, security ring diagram, testimonial card, trust-strip badge row. +- `https://cal.com/customers` — customer-logo lockup card with 4-corner-cropped grid backdrop. +- `https://cal.com/blog` — post-card pattern with photographic cover overlaid by Cal.com title chrome, category tag, author + avatar attribution. +- `https://cal.com/docs` — docs three-pane shell on dark canvas, MDX-shape body, Copy-page split-button. +- `https://cal.com/ai` — Cal.ai sub-brand chrome: indigo canvas, violet primary, gradient violet-to-lavender heading text, phone mockup, FeaturedOn ProductHunt badge. +- `https://cal.com/peer` (→ `https://i.cal.com/peer/meet`) — the in-product booking page on dark canvas. The brand's voltage moment: calendar grid card, time-slot list, dark-gradient hero promo banner above the booking widget. +- `https://app.cal.com/login` — login card with Google + Microsoft SSO, email/password form, install-PWA banner pin. +- `https://cal.com/why-cal` — 404 page with the green "still available" accent and the green CTA pill. + +## §6 Notes + +- **Three-polarity brand.** Cal.com's marketing is light-canonical. The product / docs / 404 surfaces are dark-canonical. The Cal.ai sub-brand is its own indigo polarity. When authoring the preview, pick one as the canonical shell and use the other two as accent / nested-card moments. The homepage hero is light; the in-product booking-page calendar grid is the dark register's voltage moment. +- **Cal Sans is the identity.** Cal.com ships its own typeface (Cal Sans + Cal Sans UI Variable) — using Inter or any non-proprietary fallback in the preview erases what's distinctive about the brand. The `--font-display` token must declare Cal Sans first even if the proprietary file won't load; the local fallback chain still resolves visually. +- **Brand colour is monochrome.** Cal.com's "primary" is not a chromatic hue. It's near-black on warm-near-white in light mode, white on near-black in dark mode. The chromatic accents (404 green `#6ce0a2`, register blue `#5b93f9`, Cal.ai violet `#6349ea`) are state / context modifiers, not primary identity. Translation rule: `--primary` is the canvas-inverse ink; the chromatic tokens belong to the `--brand-accent-*` family. +- **The booking calendar grid IS the brand's voltage moment.** Don't reach for the homepage hero typography as the signature surface; the calendar grid on the booking page (`//`) is the visual that defines Cal.com against Calendly / SavvyCal. It deserves a dedicated treatment in §4 and in the preview-template signature mockup. +- **Polarity locks.** The Cal.ai indigo canvas (`#0d0c27` family) and its violet primary `#6349ea` are sub-brand identity surfaces. They should not theme-flip in the preview; if Cal.ai content appears, it stays on the indigo chrome regardless of `data-theme`. +- **Accepted sub-AA on customer-logo strip and compliance seals.** The customer-logo strip and footer compliance seals render in monochrome at low contrast against the canvas. This is by-design — the live site ships them that way. Don't promote them to higher-contrast ink in the preview. +- **No model names, no real customer names.** When authoring Halcyon's-team-using-Cal mockups: do not name real Cal.com customers (Rho, Deel, Framer, Ramp, PlanetScale, Manifest Law) and do not reuse real Cal.com employees' display names (Peer Richelsen, Cédric van Ravesteijn) as booking-widget owners. Use the catalog's invented persona pool. +- **Cal.com vs Cal.ai wordmark distinction.** The marketing site brands as `Cal.com` with a dot. The AI sub-brand uses `Cal.ai`. Don't mix the two; the wordmark choice carries product-line meaning. + +## §Known gaps + +- **Hover / focus / press states** were not captured in this pass. The marketing CTA pill carries an inset highlight shadow in its default state (`rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.15) 0px 2px 0px 0px inset`); presumed pressed / hover variants would deepen this. The booking-page time-slot list rows likely fill on hover. Sample with `mcp__chrome-devtools__emulate hover` if available. +- **Mobile viewport only.** All screenshots were captured at 606px width — the page rendered its mobile layout. Desktop chrome (top-nav with full link row, multi-column pricing layout, side-rail in docs) is inferred from the brand register but not directly observed in this pass. Run a parallel pass at 1280px+ to confirm. +- **Authenticated product surfaces.** `app.cal.com/event-types`, `app.cal.com/availability`, `app.cal.com/bookings`, `app.cal.com/insights`, `app.cal.com/apps` are SSO-gated. The product chrome in the marketing-page mockups (Insights dashboard, SLA panel, security ring) is the only window we have into them. A logged-in pass through the product app would document settings forms, table chrome, and the real Insights surface. +- **Email / transactional surfaces.** Cal.com sends reminder / confirmation / cancellation emails. Their visual register isn't documented here. +- **Cal Sans variable axis exposure.** Computed styles list `Cal Sans Light`, `Cal Sans UI Variable Light`, `Cal Sans UI Regular` as distinct font families. Whether these are pinned weight cuts of a single variable typeface or separate static files isn't determinable from outside the asset pipeline; treat as "Cal Sans family with multiple weights." +- **Customer-logo strip carouselling.** The trust strip lists 5 logos statically on mobile; whether it carousels through the broader customer list on desktop wasn't captured. +- **`cal.com/cal-fonts` and `cal.com/why-cal` route to 404.** Cal Sans is mentioned in the footer (`Cal Fonts` link in `Resources`) but the linked landing page is 404. Cal.com may have removed the fonts-as-product page since the link was added. diff --git a/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/cal-style/README.md b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/cal-style/README.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..122400f --- /dev/null +++ b/claude/skills/visualize/design-systems/cal-style/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,23 @@ +# Cal.com + +An independent reference for Cal.com's visual style. +Design guidance and captured sources are documented in DESIGN.md. + +## Preview and reference + +- [Light preview](preview.html) +- [Dark preview](preview-dark.html) +- [Design guidance](DESIGN.md): visual identity and captured sources. +- [Tokens](tokens.css): concrete values and theme treatments. + +Previews demonstrate the system; their content and layouts are examples. + +## Theme usage + +> Apply the Cal.com reference (`cal-style`) to this artifact.

    Tokens · Surfaces · Five steps

    +

    White through dark, one inversion at the floor.

    +

    Pages rotate through canvas → secondary → card → strong → dark, with the dark step reserved for the footer and the featured pricing tier. The dark surface is scarce by design; using it twice in a row breaks the brand's pacing.

    Three shapes, one inversion at the middle.

    +

    The featured tier flips to the documented dark surface — colour-block contrast does the elevation work. No accent borders, no scale shifts, no badge. Just inversion.

    Display headlines run Inter 600 with -0.04em tracking (an Inter approximation of the documented Cal Sans face). Body type stays Inter 400, never bolder. The boundary doesn't blur — every display headline carries the same weight-and-tracking signature.

The live brand uses **three** distinct dark + canvases (`#141413`, `#1f1f1e`, `#262624`). The current single + `--brand-surface-dark` token collapses the three into one. Reconciliation: + split into `--brand-canvas-dark-deep` (`#141413`), `--brand-canvas-dark` + (`#1f1f1e`), and `--brand-canvas-docs` (`#262624`); decide which one + drives `[data-theme="dark"]` and the preview canvas (recommendation: + `#141413` because it carries the marketing identity). +- **`--brand-surface-dark-elevated`** in `tokens.css` is `oklch(0.2572 + 0.0063 78.2148)` (= `#2c2a26`).

Mark as + synthesised or remove. +- **`--brand-success`** (= green) and **`--brand-warning`** (= amber): not + observed live; both are template inheritance, mark synthesised. +- **`--card`** in `tokens.css` is `oklch(0.9357 0.0161 82.7919)` (= `#eee9da`). + Live observation: `#e8e6dc` (`oklch(0.9237 0.0135 97.4518)`). Minor + drift, same warm-tan family — reconcile to the live value. +- **`--muted` / `--secondary`** in `tokens.css` is `oklch(0.9568 0.0119 + 79.7842)` (= `#f3eee0`). Live observation: `#f0eee6` (`oklch(0.9485 0.0109 + 95.1665)`). Slight chroma drift; the live value sits closer to the + cream canvas. Reconcile to live. +- **`--brand-body`** in `tokens.css` is `oklch(0.3590 0.0051 106.6524)` + (= `#3d3d3a`).

The live brand uses a lighter `#87867f` (`oklch(0.6188 + 0.0104 100.0882)`) for label / metadata text; the `0.5000` value is a + contrast-fix override, not a live observation.
