Pull request overview
Implements P1 milestone features for the Shopify-style Theme Editor by adding preset-driven theme customization, a registry-backed “Add Section” workflow, and an inspector/a11y layer across the editor + preview iframe.
Changes:
- Added preset libraries for color schemes and typography, plus UI selectors to apply them in the theme settings panel.
- Added a centralized section registry and updated the “Add Section” modal to support search/category filtering + disabled states.
- Added inspector overlay rendering in the preview iframe and introduced global editor accessibility enhancements (skip links + shortcuts UI), along with supporting documentation.

PreviewBridge now renders <InspectorOverlay />, but it still maintains its own inspectorMode state and registers inspector-related click handling/body class toggling earlier in the file. InspectorOverlay also implements inspector click/keyboard handlers and toggles the same body class, so running both can cause duplicate STORMCOM_SELECT_SECTION messages and inconsistent cleanup. Consider making InspectorOverlay the sole owner of inspector interactions (and remove the inspector-specific logic/state from PreviewBridge), or pass the state down so behavior is centralized.

There are multiple unused imports/types here (X, cn, and SectionId). They add noise and will trigger @typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars warnings. Remove them or use them intentionally.

After switching to ColorSchemeSelector/TypographyPresetSelector, this file still keeps the old color-scheme helpers (applyScheme, isSchemeActive) and imports (DEFAULT_COLOR_SCHEMES, Check, Type, Separator, Slider, Badge, TypographySettings, etc.) that are no longer referenced. Please remove the unused helpers/imports to avoid confusion and keep the panel implementation aligned with the new selectors.

Skip links are meant to be the first focusable elements in the page’s tab order, but AccessibilityEnhancements is rendered after the main editor UI. This defeats the purpose of bypass blocks for keyboard users. Move the skip-links markup to the top of the layout (e.g., before EditorToolbar) so it’s encountered first in DOM order.
| const handleSkipLink = useCallback( | ||
| (target: string) => { | ||
| const element = document.getElementById(target); | ||

| element.focus(); | ||

The skip-link handler looks up targets by DOM id, but the targets referenced (editor-toolbar, editor-sidebar, preview-pane) don’t exist as actual element ids (ResizablePanel’s id prop is not a DOM id, and there’s no id="editor-toolbar" in the app). As a result, getElementById will often return null and the skip links won’t work. Add real DOM elements with matching ids and make them programmatically focusable (e.g., tabIndex={-1}) before calling .focus().
| <TabsList className="grid w-full grid-cols-6"> | ||
| <TabsTrigger value="all">All</TabsTrigger> | ||
| {SECTION_CATEGORIES.map((category) => ( | ||
| <TabsTrigger key={category.id} value={category.id}> | ||
| {category.name} | ||
| </TabsTrigger> | ||
| ))} | ||
| </TabsList> |

TabsList is set to grid-cols-6, but you render 7 tab triggers ("All" + 6 categories). This will either overflow or wrap unpredictably. Update the grid column count (or use a scrollable tab list) so the tab layout matches the number of triggers.

The quick reference snippets don’t align with the actual exports/behavior in this PR: it points to DEFAULT_COLOR_SCHEMES (which exists but is the 3-scheme set in defaults.ts), while the new 8-scheme P1 presets are exported as COLOR_SCHEMES/COLOR_CATEGORIES; and it references DEFAULT_TYPOGRAPHY_PRESETS (not exported) and SectionMetadata (not exported). Please update the examples to use the real exported names/types so the doc is copy/paste correct for the P1 feature set.

This doc still contains placeholders and mismatches with the actual code in this PR (e.g., Related Issue: #[Issue Number] and the listed color schemes/typography pairings don’t match COLOR_SCHEMES / TYPOGRAPHY_PRESETS). Please update the names/links to reflect the real implementations so the document remains a reliable source of truth.

calculateHeadingSizes() uses exponents 5→1 and sets h6 equal to the base font size, which makes headings explode for typical scales (e.g., base 18 & scale 1.5 yields ~137px for h1). This also doesn’t match the example outputs in the PR description/docs (where h4 equals base and lower headings are smaller than base). Consider adjusting the scale math (e.g., center the scale around the base size) so the slider range produces realistic heading sizes and stays consistent with the documented examples.
