-[BEGIN SYZYGY 5.0 COGNITIVE BOOTSTRAP]
-Preamble: The SYZYGY Protocol
+# **MANDATORY** RULES
 
-You are a meta-interpreter for SYZYGY 5.0, a formal language for programming cognitive states. Your function is to parse prompts written in this specification, synthesize a holistic cognitive state from the given constraints, and then execute a task through the lens of that state. The protocol operates on the principle of Controlled Cognitive Load: by dedicating a portion of your finite attention budget to maintaining specific, parallel constraints, your generative process is funneled, minimizing hallucination and producing outputs that are more precise, creative, and aligned with user intent.
+1. Never use mutative git operations
 
-Axiom 0: Context State Declaration
-Before any operation, you must analyze your conversational context buffer and declare your operational state. This is a mandatory first step.
+## Workspace Topology
 
-CONTEXT_CONTINUOUS: The current session builds upon prior interactions. You will be influenced by established context and path dependency.
+The repository has three top-level directories for code:
 
-CONTEXT_RESET: The user has issued a soft reset. You must actively work to avoid the specific paths of the immediate prior context, prioritizing novel approaches.
+- **`packages/`** — publishable libraries (`properties`, `system`, `extract`, `vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`) and deep-internal private workspaces (`_assertions`, `_integration`, `test-ds`, `showcase`). Everything here either ships to npm or is load-bearing for the build/verification pipeline.
+- **`e2e/`** — consumer fixture applications whose test surface is "build the whole app, assert against output." Current members: `next-app` (Next.js). Future members may include `vite-app`, etc. Never published.
+- **`legacy/`** — archived packages preserved for reference only. Do not install, build, or publish. See § Legacy Packages below for the full catalog.
 
-CONTEXT_COLD_START: This is a new session with no relevant history. Your analysis will be de novo.
+### One-Way Dependency Rule
 
-Axiom 1: The Seven Axes of Control
-A SYZYGY prompt consists of a Task (T) and one or more constraints from the seven fundamental axes.
+Dependencies flow top-down (consumer direction):
 
-P: [WHO] (Personality/Identity): Defines the persona's voice, worldview, and style. Includes attributes like E: (Emotional Arc).
+- **`e2e/*` MAY import `packages/*`** — fixtures consume the libraries they verify.
+- **`packages/*` MUST NOT import `e2e/*`** — libraries cannot depend on their downstream verifiers.
+- **Neither `packages/*` nor `e2e/*` may import `legacy/*`** — the active graph must not depend on archived code.
 
-D: [HOW] (Directive/Process): Defines a specific method of thinking or a metaphorical framework ("Metaphor Folding").
+Assertion utilities that need to be importable by both `packages/*` post-build scripts and `e2e/*` fixtures live in `packages/_assertions/` (a `packages/`-resident private package), so imports always flow top-down without crossing the `packages/ ← e2e/` boundary.
 
-M: [WHAT] (Modal/Structure): Defines the output's format, architecture, or internal physical laws. Includes A: (Archaeological), Re: (Recursive).
+No automated enforcement yet — candidate for a future CI grep or lint rule.
 
-L: [WHERE] (Liminal/Boundaries): Non-negotiable rules defining the forbidden, unknown, or impossible. This axis has priority in constraint conflicts.
+## Monorepo Build System
 
-K: [WHY] (Epistemic/Stance): Defines the model's relationship to truth, certainty, and paradox. Includes Pr: (Probability), Q: (Quantum Superposition).
+### Package Build Order
 
-R: [WHOM] (Relational/Audience): Defines the social dynamic between the AI and the user.
+`extract` (Rust/NAPI) → `properties` → `system` → `vite-plugin`/`next-plugin` → `showcase`/`next-app`. TS packages use `tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json`; Rust uses `napi build --platform --release`. See per-package `CLAUDE.md` for details.
 
-Tε: [PURPOSE] (Telic/Goal): The ultimate, overarching purpose or ideological goal that guides the synthesis of all other constraints.
+### TypeScript Implementations
 
-Axiom 2: Advanced Synthesis Technique
-For tasks requiring deep, multi-domain insight, a Conceptual Blending (C) directive may be used. This is a higher-order directive that replaces a simple D.
+Two TypeScript implementations are installed concurrently. Each owns a distinct workload:
 
-C: {Concept 1, Concept 2, ...}: Instructs the model to find the synthesized intersection of multiple, disparate conceptual domains and use that emergent framework to solve the task.
+| Workload                                                      | Implementation                                | Binary                   | Package                      | Pinned version         | Install                                                      |
+| ------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- | ------------------------ | ---------------------------- | ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| Type-check (`verify:compile`, `verify:types`)                 | `tsgo` (TypeScript 7 native preview, Go port) | `node_modules/.bin/tsgo` | `@typescript/native-preview` | `7.0.0-dev.20260421.2` | `bun add -d @typescript/native-preview@7.0.0-dev.20260421.2` |
+| Declaration emit (`build:ts` → `tsgo -p tsconfig.build.json`) | `tsgo` (TypeScript 7 native preview, Go port) | `node_modules/.bin/tsgo` | `@typescript/native-preview` | `7.0.0-dev.20260421.2` | (same as above)                                              |
 
-Axiom 3: The Optimization Protocol
-When tasked with designing a constraint configuration, you will follow this three-stage protocol:
+Both workloads use `tsgo`. `@typescript/native-preview` is beta software. The declaration-emit parity tool `scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh` is retained as re-runnable scaffolding (requires reinstalling `typescript` to compare against `tsgo`).
 
-Task Analysis: Decompose the task into its core challenge, hidden complexities, common failure modes, and the optimal underlying mental model.
+### Verification Tiers
 
-Constraint Design: Select and combine axes to form a synergistic stack. Key principles include:
+This table is the single source of truth for verification commands. Per-package `CLAUDE.md` files MUST NOT duplicate it — they link back here. Every atomic tier fails loud with a readable `ERROR: X missing. Run: Y` message if its upstream artifacts are absent — no tier silently rebuilds upstream. Run the minimum tier set for your change (see Change-Type Map below) rather than defaulting to `verify:full`.
 
-Semantic Distance: For creative tasks, aim for a distance of 0.4-0.7 between the P and D/C domains.
+> **Dispatch:** `vp run X` is the canonical and only invocation path for every migrated tier (verify:_, build:_, hygiene). The task graph lives in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks`. `bun run` continues to work for unmigrated scripts (`dev:showcase`, `test`, `lint`/`format`/`check`/`check:fix`, `release`). `bun run <migrated-name>` returns "script not found" by design — there is no transparent alias.
 
-Language as Worldview: Align the P with the task's implicit philosophy (e.g., a "contract" model for TypeScript; a "process" model for Python).
+#### Atomic Tiers
 
-Synergy Check: Verify that the chosen constraints amplify, rather than conflict with, each other, funneling attention toward a high-quality solution.

-Axiom 4: Design Patterns (Archetypes)
-Recognize that certain synergistic configurations form reusable patterns ("Archetypes") such as "The Oracle" (for precision), "The Muse" (for creativity), "The Mentor" (for education), and "The Forge" (for stress-testing). These can serve as starting points for optimization.
+#### Composite Orchestrators
 
-VERIFICATION PROTOCOL
-To confirm you have successfully assimilated the SYZYGY 5.0 framework, process the following task internally. Do not execute the task itself. Instead, your entire output should be your full optimization plan as stipulated in Axiom 3. Your plan must declare its contextual state, analyze the task, and define a complete, synergistic SYZYGY constraint stack with your rationale for each choice.

+
+**No verify tier required** for:
+
+- `openspec/**` — use `openspec validate <change>` instead
+- MDX content under `packages/showcase/src/content/**`
+- Root markdown (`CLAUDE.md`, `README.md`, `docs/**`)
+
+**Ownership rule**: any change introducing a new top-level edit surface (e.g., a new publishable package, a new `e2e/*` fixture) MUST add a corresponding row to this map in the same change that introduces the surface.
+
+### Cache Tiers
+
+`clean:light` — `.vite` + `dist/` (<1s); use when transforms seem stale. `clean:full` — adds Rust `target/` + `.node` binary (30-60s rebuild); use for NAPI errors or "nothing works." `clean` — legacy alias for `dist/` + `target/`.
+
+### Debugging Quick-Ref
+
+Symptom-to-fix table for extraction-pipeline failures: see [`packages/extract/CLAUDE.md`](packages/extract/CLAUDE.md) § Debugging Quick-Ref.
+
+### Key Rules
+
+- **bun for package-management; vp for task orchestration; Node 22+ for vp's static-analysis loaders.** `bun install`, `bun.lock`, `bun run --filter` per-package dispatch all stay bun-side. Migrated tiers (verify:_, build:_, hygiene) dispatch via `vp run X`. Bun version pinned in `.tool-versions` (consumed by CI via `bun-version-file`); Node version also pinned in `.tool-versions` (consumed by CI via `node-version-file`) — Node 22.18.0+ required because vp's `check`/`lint`/`fmt`/`dev`/`build` paths use oxc's native ESM loader for `vite.config.ts`, which requires native TypeScript-strip support (stable in Node 22.6+). `vp run` works on Node 20 (it uses the Vite-bundled loader) but the rest of the vp surface requires Node 22+. Never npm/npx.
+- **vp env stays disabled.** `vp env use` SHALL NOT be invoked locally or in CI for this repo. `.tool-versions` is the sole bun-version source of truth (vp env injection broke tsdown's `unrun` resolver in PoC session 92). Note: vp v0.1.20 auto-writes `packageManager: bun@1.3.13` to `package.json` on every invocation; this is a known asymmetry with `.tool-versions: bun 1.3.11` — `.tool-versions` remains authoritative for asdf/mise/CI; the `packageManager` field is a corepack hint that we tolerate but do not honor.
+- **Bun ≥1.3.12 `createRequire` bug** — `createRequire(import.meta.url)` matches the `"types"` export condition as runtime, loading `.d.ts` files as JS (returns empty object). Workaround: use a direct relative path (e.g., `require('../../pkg/index.js')`) instead of `require('@scope/pkg')`. ESM `import` is unaffected; only the `createRequire` polyfill is affected. Bun 1.3.11 was last unaffected version.
+- **No React resolve aliases** — they break the extraction transform pipeline. Aliasing `react`/`react-dom` forces React to an absolute path outside the package, which disrupts vite's module graph ordering: the transform hook fires and returns correct code, but vite's bundler uses the original untransformed source. Silent failure (zero errors, zero warnings). For React deduplication, use bun workspace hoisting, `package.json` `overrides`, or vite `dedupe` (separate from `resolve.alias`).
+- **Extraction runs in production AND dev.** Restart the dev server to pick up system changes (buildStart results held in memory).
+- **Atomic tiers fail loud, never silently rebuild.** On `ERROR: X missing. Run: vp run build:extract` (or similar), run that command and retry. Tiers never invoke upstream builds themselves.
+
+### Code Hygiene Workflow
+
+End-of-work mutating cleanup at `scripts/hygiene/`. Never CI-invoked. See [`scripts/hygiene/CLAUDE.md`](scripts/hygiene/CLAUDE.md) for cascade architecture (Layers A/B/C/D/D1), verdicts, receipts schema, preconditions, and recovery semantics. Authoritative requirement surface: `openspec/specs/code-hygiene/spec.md`.
+
+## Legacy Packages
+
+`legacy/` holds archived packages preserved for reference only — never installed, built, or published. `packages/*` and `e2e/*` MUST NOT import from `legacy/*` (see § One-Way Dependency Rule). For the catalog of legacy packages, workspace exclusion mechanics, and archived openspec path references, see [`legacy/CLAUDE.md`](legacy/CLAUDE.md).

-Animus is a configuration driven toolkit for creating articulate component languages and expressive UIs.
+# Animus
 
-- **Prop Cascade**: Declarative component builder with structured specification and execution order.
-- **Comprehensively Typed**: Animus is the foundation for exhaustively typing your entire design system
-  as you configure it. The more specific you are the smarter it gets.
-- **Modes and Themes**: Animus is built with CSS variable color modes support out of the box either through `@animus-ui/theming` or your own implementation.
-- **Completely Customizable**: Customize props, themes, and patterns without losing interoperability.
+Type-driven CSS-in-JS with static extraction. Zero runtime.
+
+## What It Is
+
+A design system builder where the TypeScript types ARE the product. Define components with a builder chain that enforces cascade ordering — the types guarantee that every legal component produces valid, extractable CSS at build time.
+
+No Emotion. No styled-components. No runtime style injection. The builder chain compiles to static CSS via `@layer`, extracted by a Rust pipeline.
 
 ```tsx
-const FlexBox = animus
-  .styles({ display: 'flex' })
-  .states({
-    inline: {
-      display: 'inline-flex',
-    },
-  })
-  .groups({
-    space: true,
+import { ds } from './ds';
+
+const Card = ds
+  .styles({
+    padding: '{space.md}',
+    borderRadius: 8,
+    backgroundColor: '{colors.surface}',
   })
-  .props({
-    gap: {
-      property: 'gap',
-      scale: {
-        md: 12,
-        lg: 24,
+  .variant({
+    elevation: {
+      prop: 'elevation',
+      variants: {
+        flat: { boxShadow: 'none' },
+        raised: { boxShadow: '{shadows.sm}' },
+        floating: { boxShadow: '{shadows.lg}' },
       },
     },
   })
+  .states({
+    disabled: { opacity: 0.5, pointerEvents: 'none' },
+  })
+  .system({ surface: true, space: true })
   .asElement('div');
 
-// Strongly typed API
-<FlexBox p="2rem" gap="md" inline />;
+// Fully typed — elevation, disabled, + all surface and space props
+<Card elevation="raised" p={16} bg="surface.hover" disabled />;
+```
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+# The design system builder
+npm install @animus-ui/system
+
+# Pick your bundler plugin
+npm install @animus-ui/vite-plugin   # Vite
+npm install @animus-ui/next-plugin   # Next.js
 ```
 
-## Philosophy: Constraining Expression, Not Capability
+## Setup
+
+Two files define your design system:
+
+**`theme.ts`** — define your tokens:
+
+```tsx
+import { createTheme } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+export const tokens = createTheme()
+  .addBreakpoints({ sm: 480, md: 768, lg: 1024 })
+  .addColors({
+    gray: { 50: '#fafafa', 500: '#555', 900: '#080808' },
+    blue: { 400: '#3d94ff', 700: '#003d99' },
+  })
+  .addColorModes('dark', {
+    dark: {
+      primary: 'blue.400',
+      bg: 'gray.900',
+      text: 'gray.50',
+    },
+    light: {
+      primary: 'blue.700',
+      bg: 'gray.50',
+      text: 'gray.900',
+    },
+  })
+  .addScale({ name: 'space', values: { sm: '0.5rem', md: '1rem', lg: '1.5rem' } })
+  .build();
 
-Animus takes a unique approach to styling that's optimized for both human developers and AI agents. Instead of limiting what you can style, it structures *how* you express styling intent.
+// Type augmentation — token names autocomplete everywhere
+declare module '@animus-ui/system' {
+  interface Theme extends typeof tokens {}
+}
+```
 
-### The Core Principle
+**`ds.ts`** — configure your system:
 
-Traditional CSS-in-JS frameworks offer infinite ways to achieve the same result, leading to:
-- Decision paralysis for developers
-- Inconsistent codebases
-- Ambiguity for AI code generation
+```tsx
+import { createSystem } from '@animus-ui/system';
+import {
+  space,
+  color,
+  typography,
+  layout,
+  flex,
+  border,
+  shadows,
+  background,
+} from '@animus-ui/system/groups';
+
+// Pre-built groups compose into your own semantic groups
+export const { system: ds, createGlobalStyles } = createSystem()
+  .addGroup('surface', { ...color, ...border, ...shadows, ...background })
+  .addGroup('space', space)
+  .addGroup('text', typography)
+  .addGroup('arrange', { ...flex, ...layout })
+  .build();
+```
 
-Animus solves this by providing **one canonical path** with clear semantic stages:
+**`vite.config.ts`**:
 
 ```tsx
-animus
-  .styles({...})      // Foundation: What it always looks like
-  .variant({...})     // Variations: How it changes by design choice
-  .states({...})      // Interactions: How it responds to user input
-  .props({...})       // Dynamics: What can be controlled at runtime
-  .asElement('div')   // Output: The final component
+import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react';
+import { animusExtract } from '@animus-ui/vite-plugin';
+import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [react(), animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })],
+});
+```
+
+## The Builder Chain
+
+Each method maps to a CSS `@layer`. The type system enforces the ordering.
+
 ```
+ds.styles()    → @layer base       always-on styles
+  .variant()   → @layer variants   prop-driven variations
+  .compound()  → @layer compounds  variant combinations
+  .states()    → @layer states     boolean interaction states
+  .system()    → @layer system     opt into prop groups (space, color, etc.)
+  .props()     → @layer custom     component-scoped dynamic props
+  .asElement() →                   seal as typed React component
+```
+
+## Packages
 
-### Why This Matters
+| Package                                          | Purpose                                                  |
+| ------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------- |
+| [`@animus-ui/system`](packages/system)           | Builder chain, theme, types, runtime                     |
+| [`@animus-ui/vite-plugin`](packages/vite-plugin) | Static CSS extraction for Vite                           |
+| [`@animus-ui/next-plugin`](packages/next-plugin) | Static CSS extraction for Next.js                        |
+| [`@animus-ui/extract`](packages/extract)         | Rust/NAPI extraction engine (used internally by plugins) |
+| [`@animus-ui/properties`](packages/properties)   | CSS property data (transitive dep of system)             |
 
-**For Human Developers:**
-- Reduced cognitive load - no need to decide how to structure styles
-- Self-documenting components - intent is clear from the API usage
-- Consistent codebase - everyone follows the same pattern
+## Key Ideas
 
-**For AI Agents:**
-- Transforms infinite CSS possibilities into a finite state machine
-- Each method declares intent, not just adds styles
-- Type system guides to the next valid step
-- Predictable patterns enable reliable code generation
+- **Compiler completeness**: If the types accept it, the pipeline extracts it. No silent failures for well-typed code.
+- **Token refs**: `'{colors.primary}'` resolves to `var(--color-primary)` at build time. Color modes shift the value automatically.
+- **Pre-built groups**: Import `space`, `color`, `typography`, etc. from `@animus-ui/system/groups` and compose them into your own semantic groups.
+- **Slot composition**: `compose()` wires components into families with shared variant propagation via React context.
+- **Terminals**: `.asElement('div')` for HTML elements, `.asComponent(Existing)` for wrapping React components. Both produce typed, extractable output.
 
-### Full Power, Guided Expression
+## Legacy
 
-The constraints are **guardrails, not walls**:
-- Any valid CSS can be written in `.styles()`
-- The `extend()` method breaks ordering constraints when needed
-- All Emotion features (css prop, runtime styles) remain available
-- You're guided to best practices, not limited in capability
+`@animus-ui/core` and `@animus-ui/theming` are the original Emotion-based packages. They are pinned at their last published versions and no longer actively developed.
 
-This philosophy represents a fundamental shift: APIs in the AI age should create a **shared language for intent** that both humans and machines can speak fluently.

-# RFC: Animus Static Extraction
-
-## Summary
-
-This RFC proposes a static extraction system for Animus that leverages its type-encoded cascade architecture to achieve zero-runtime CSS. By analyzing the type parameters in `AnimusWithAll`, we can extract styling information at build time while maintaining the runtime API during development.
-
-**UPDATE**: Multi-agent architectural analysis has validated this approach, finding that ~98% of real-world Animus usage is statically extractable, with the backwards inheritance chain serving as a type-level AST ready for compilation.
-
-## Motivation
-
-Current CSS-in-JS static extraction solutions force developers to choose between runtime flexibility and zero-runtime performance. Animus's type system uniquely encodes the cascade hierarchy, making it theoretically possible to statically extract styles while preserving the runtime API.
-
-## Core Insight
-
-The Animus type signature contains the styling cascade structure:
-
-```typescript
-AnimusWithAll<
-  PropRegistry,    // All possible props
-  GroupRegistry,   // Prop groupings
-  BaseParser,      // Parsing rules
-  BaseStyles,      // Layer 1: Base CSS (contains actual style values!)
-  Variants,        // Layer 2: Variant CSS (contains actual variant objects!)
-  States,          // Layer 3: State CSS (contains actual state styles!)
-  ActiveGroups,    // Layer 4: Enabled prop groups
-  CustomProps      // Layer 5: Custom props
->
-```
-
-**Verified Discovery**: These type parameters don't just describe the styles - they contain the actual JavaScript objects passed to `.styles()`, `.variant()`, etc. The backwards inheritance chain ensures these values are preserved through the entire builder pattern.
-
-## Realistic Constraints & Challenges
-
-### 1. Type Information at Build Time
-
-**Challenge**: TypeScript types are erased at runtime. We need the actual values, not just types.
-
-**Reality Check**:
-- We can extract styles passed to `.styles()`, `.variant()`, etc. through AST analysis
-- But we cannot magically extract type parameter values without runtime evaluation
-- Need babel/SWC plugin to capture actual values during compilation
-
-### 2. Dynamic Styles
-
-**Challenge**: Not all styles are static.
-
-```typescript
-// Static - extractable
-.styles({ padding: 10 })
-
-// Dynamic - not extractable
-.styles({ padding: props => props.spacing * 10 })
-
-// Theme tokens - partially extractable
-.styles({ color: '$primary' })
-```
-
-**Solution**: Hybrid approach
-- Extract static styles
-- Keep runtime for dynamic styles
-- Generate CSS variables for theme tokens
-
-**Real-World Update**: Analysis of actual Animus usage found ZERO dynamic style functions in production code. ~98% of patterns are fully static, suggesting we can be more aggressive than initially planned.
-
-### 3. Cross-Module Analysis
-
-**Challenge**: Components can extend across files.
-
-```typescript
-// base-button.ts
-export const BaseButton = animus.styles({ padding: 10 });
-
-// button.ts
-import { BaseButton } from './base-button';
-export const Button = BaseButton.extend().styles({ color: 'blue' });
-```
-
-**Reality**: Need sophisticated module resolution, similar to Tamagui's approach.
-
-## Phased Implementation Plan
-
-### Phase 1: Proof of Concept (MVP)
-
-**Goal**: Extract styles from single-file components with static values only.
-
-**Scope**:
-- Only components defined and used in same file
-- Only static style values (no functions, no theme tokens)
-- Generate atomic CSS classes
-- Simple babel plugin
-
-**Deliverables**:
-- Working prototype for basic cases
-- Performance benchmarks
-- List of limitations
-
-### Phase 2: Production-Ready Features
-
-**Goal**: Handle real-world usage patterns.
-
-**Scope**:
-- Cross-module component resolution
-- Theme token replacement with CSS variables
-- Responsive array syntax → media queries
-- Source maps for debugging
-- Development/production mode switching
-
-**Technical Requirements**:
-- Build tool plugins (Vite, Webpack, Next.js)
-- Caching for incremental builds
-- Error recovery for non-extractable styles
-
-### Phase 3: Advanced Optimization
-
-**Goal**: Achieve parity with Tamagui's optimizations.
-
-**Scope**:
-- Dead code elimination for unused variants
-- Component flattening (remove wrapper components)
-- Runtime elimination (replace Emotion completely)
-- Platform-specific optimizations
-
-## Technical Architecture
-
-### Extraction Pipeline
-
-```typescript
-// 1. AST Analysis Phase
-const styles = {
-  base: findStyleCalls(ast, '.styles'),
-  variants: findVariantCalls(ast, '.variant'),
-  states: findStateCalls(ast, '.states')
-};
-
-// 2. Evaluation Phase
-const evaluated = {
-  base: evaluateExpression(styles.base),      // { padding: 10 }
-  variants: evaluateExpression(styles.variants), // { size: { sm: {...} } }
-  states: evaluateExpression(styles.states)     // { hover: {...} }
-};
-
-// 3. CSS Generation Phase
-const css = generateAtomicCSS(evaluated);
-
-// 4. Runtime Transformation
-transformToClassNames(ast, cssMapping);
-```
-
-### Verified Architecture: The Backwards Inheritance Chain
-
-```typescript
-// The chain enforces cascade order through type-level state machine:
-Animus 
-  → AnimusWithBase      // Can only add .styles()
-  → AnimusWithVariants  // Can only add .variant()
-  → AnimusWithStates    // Can only add .states()
-  → AnimusWithSystem    // Can only add .groups()
-  → AnimusWithAll       // Can only add .props()
-
-// Each class stores actual values in constructor:
-class AnimusWithBase {
-  constructor(props, groups, parser, baseStyles) {
-    this.baseStyles = baseStyles; // <-- Actual { padding: 10 } object!
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### Handling Dynamic Styles
-
-```typescript
-// Input
-const Button = animus
-  .styles({
-    padding: 10,                    // ✅ Static
-    margin: props => props.space,   // ⚠️  Dynamic
-    color: '$primary'               // 🔄 Theme token
-  });
-
-// Output
-const Button = styled.button`
-  /* Static - extracted to .p-10 class */
-
-  /* Dynamic - kept as runtime */
-  margin: ${props => props.space}px;
-
-  /* Theme - converted to CSS var */
-  color: var(--animus-primary);
-`;
-```
-
-### Development vs Production
-
-```typescript
-// Development: Full Emotion runtime for HMR
-if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development') {
-  return require('./animus-runtime-emotion').default;
-}
-
-// Production: Minimal shim
-return {
-  styled: (tag) => (props) => {
-    const className = resolveClasses(props);
-    return createElement(tag, { ...props, className });
-  }
-};
-```
-
-## Realistic Limitations
-
-1. **Not Everything is Extractable**
-   - Dynamic functions will remain runtime
-   - Cross-component prop dependencies need runtime
-   - Some responsive patterns may need runtime
-
-2. **Build Time Cost**
-   - Initial builds will be slower
-   - Need smart caching for large codebases
-   - Module resolution adds complexity
-
-3. **Debugging Experience**
-   - Source maps for transformed code
-   - Dev tools integration needed
-   - Error messages may be less clear
-
-4. **Ecosystem Compatibility**
-   - Emotion plugins won't work
-   - Theme switching needs new patterns
-   - SSR needs special handling
-
-## Success Metrics
-
-- **Bundle Size**: 40-60% reduction (realistic with partial extraction)
-- **Runtime Performance**: 2-3x faster rendering (no styled component overhead)
-- **Build Time**: <5s impact on medium projects
-- **Adoption**: Works with 80% of common patterns without changes
-
-**Updated Based on Analysis**:
-- **Bundle Size**: 70-90% reduction possible (98% static patterns found)
-- **Runtime Performance**: 5-10x faster (near-zero runtime overhead)
-- **Pattern Coverage**: 98% of real-world usage is extractable
-- **Zero Dynamic Functions**: More aggressive optimization possible
-
-## Migration Strategy
-
-Since this is a single-user library, we can be aggressive:
-
-### Option A: "Full Send" Mode
-```typescript
-// animus.config.ts
-export default {
-  extraction: {
-    // Just rip off the bandaid
-    mode: 'static-or-die',
-
-    // Extract everything possible
-    extract: '*',
-
-    // Fail loudly on dynamic styles
-    dynamicStyles: 'error',
-
-    // Delete Emotion entirely
-    removeEmotion: true
-  }
-};
-```
-
-### Option B: "Mad Scientist" Mode
-- Fork the library as `animus-static`
-- Completely rewrite internals for static-first
-- Break all APIs if it makes extraction better
-- Experiment with wild optimizations
-- Merge back only what works
-
-### Option C: "Pragmatic Solo Dev" Mode
-```typescript
-// Still hybrid but aggressive defaults
-export default {
-  extraction: {
-    mode: 'hybrid',
-    extract: ['baseStyles', 'variants', 'states'],
-    runtime: ['responsive', 'theme'],
-
-    // Since it's just you, verbose debugging
-    debug: true,
-
-    // Experiment with aggressive optimizations
-    experimental: {
-      flattenComponents: true,
-      eliminateUnusedVariants: true,
-      inlineConstants: true
-    }
-  }
-};
-```
-
-## Prior Art & Lessons Learned
-
-- **Tamagui**: Module resolution is hard, caching is critical
-- **Vanilla Extract**: Build tool integration complexity
-- **Linaria**: Evaluation of dynamic expressions is limited
-- **StyleX**: Atomic CSS generation algorithms are well-solved
-
-## Realistic Next Steps
-
-1. **Prototype** with single-file static extraction
-2. **Benchmark** against vanilla Emotion to prove value
-3. **User study** with real Animus codebases to find patterns
-4. **Incremental release** starting with opt-in beta
-
-**Post-Analysis Accelerated Timeline**:
-1. **Week 1**: Build AST extractor for docs package (98% coverage expected)
-2. **Week 2**: Implement TypeScript Compiler API type parameter extraction
-3. **Week 3**: Generate static CSS + minimal runtime
-4. **Week 4**: Replace Emotion in docs package, measure 70-90% bundle reduction
-

-Since this is a personal project with no external users, here's what we could REALLY do:
-
-### 1. **Compile-Time Component Flattening**
-```typescript
-// Write this:
-const Card = animus.styles({...}).variant({...});
-const ProfileCard = Card.extend().styles({...});
-
-// Generate this:
-<div className="card-base card-variant-default profile-extra" />
-// No React components at all!
-```
-
-### 2. **Compiler Reference Traversal**
-The TypeScript compiler already resolves all the type information we need:
-
-```typescript
-// When TS sees this:
-const Button = animus
-  .styles({ padding: 10 })
-  .variant({ prop: 'size', variants: { sm: {}, lg: {} } })
-  .asElement('button');
-
-// It builds an internal type representation:
-// AnimusWithAll<..., { padding: 10 }, { size: { variants: { sm: {}, lg: {} } } }, ...>
-
-// We can traverse the compiler's type references to extract:
-// 1. Follow the reference from Button to its type
-// 2. Extract type parameters from AnimusWithAll
-// 3. The actual style values are RIGHT THERE in the type!
-```
-
-**Implementation approach:**
-```typescript
-// TypeScript Compiler API
-function extractAnimusStyles(checker: TypeChecker, node: Node) {
-  // Get the type of the const declaration
-  const type = checker.getTypeAtLocation(node);
-
-  // If it's AnimusWithAll, extract type arguments
-  if (isAnimusType(type)) {
-    const typeArgs = (type as TypeReference).typeArguments;
-    // typeArgs[3] = BaseStyles = { padding: 10 } ← actual value!
-    // typeArgs[4] = Variants = { size: {...} } ← actual value!
-  }
-}
-```
-
-The compiler has already done all the hard work of resolving modules, following extends chains, and building the complete type. We just need to extract it!
-
-### 3. **Zero-Runtime Mode**
-Literally delete all runtime code. Components become just class name mappings:
-```typescript
-export const Button = {
-  type: 'button',
-  classes: {
-    base: 'btn-base',
-    variants: { size: { sm: 'btn-sm', lg: 'btn-lg' } },
-    states: { hover: 'btn-hover' }
-  }
-};
-```
-
-### 4. **AST Macros**
-Since it's just you, use experimental transforms:
-```typescript
-// Compile-time macro expansion
-const styles = $styles!({ padding: 10 });
-// Becomes: const styles = 'p-10';
-```
-
-## The Ultimate Constraint-Driven Architecture
-
-This approach represents the pinnacle of constraint-driven development:
-
-### Constraints All The Way Down
-
-1. **API Constraints** → Enforce cascade order through backwards inheritance
-2. **Type Constraints** → Encode entire configuration in type parameters
-3. **Build Constraints** → Extract everything from type information
-4. **Runtime Constraints** → No runtime needed (the ultimate constraint!)
-
-
-### The Beautiful Paradox
-
-By adding MORE constraints (strict ordering, type state machine), we actually made the system MORE powerful:
-- Types contain all information needed for extraction
-- Cascade order is guaranteed by construction
-- No ambiguity about style application
-- Compiler can optimize aggressively
-
-This is true constraint-driven development: the constraints don't limit the system, they **define** it so precisely that revolutionary optimizations become possible.
-
-### Architectural Validation
-
-Multi-agent analysis confirms:
-1. **The backwards inheritance chain IS a type-level AST** - ready for traversal
-2. **Type parameters contain actual values** - not just type information
-3. **The build() method is the natural extraction point** - all data converges here
-4. **Real usage is 98% static** - far exceeding initial assumptions
-5. **Theme system already generates CSS variables** - just needs build-time execution
-
-## Conclusion
-
-Static extraction for Animus isn't just achievable - it's the natural evolution of the architecture. The constraints that make Animus "impossible to misuse" also make it "impossible not to optimize."
-
-Theme UI introduced constraint-based styling. Animus proves that with enough constraints, you can eliminate the runtime entirely. The constraints become the compiler, the compiler becomes the runtime, and the circle is complete.
-
-The grail was never about finding the perfect CSS-in-JS solution. It was about realizing that with enough type-level constraints, you don't need the JS at all. 
-
-**Post-Analysis Update**: This RFC has been validated through comprehensive architectural analysis. The backwards inheritance chain isn't just an elegant API - it's a type-level compiler waiting to be executed. With 98% of real-world patterns being purely static, we can be even more aggressive than initially proposed. The constraint-driven architecture has already solved the hard problems; now we just need to flip the switch from runtime to build-time.

+# Animus V1 — FAQ
+
+## What Is This
+
+Animus is a zero-runtime CSS-in-JS system that statically extracts styles at build time via a Rust NAPI crate. You define themes, prop vocabularies, and component styles using TypeScript builder chains; the extraction plugin compiles them into `@layer`-structured CSS with deterministic cascade ordering. It requires a bundler plugin (Vite or Next.js) and produces standard CSS — no style computation happens at render time.
+
+## How It Works
+
+1. **Builder chains describe styles** — `createTheme()` defines tokens, `createSystem()` defines prop vocabularies, `ds.styles()` defines components. All static, all type-safe.
+2. **Rust crate extracts at build time** — The extraction pipeline walks your AST, evaluates static style objects, resolves token references to CSS variables, and emits `@layer`-structured CSS.
+3. **Seven cascade layers enforce specificity** — `global → base → variants → compounds → states → system → custom`. Layer position determines priority, not selector specificity.
+4. **Zero runtime means zero style computation** — The 128-line runtime is pure string lookup: map props to pre-computed class names, filter non-DOM props, forward ref. No hooks, no CSSOM, no browser APIs beyond `className`.
+5. **Graceful degradation for dynamic values** — Static values become utility classes. Non-static values (variables, conditionals) degrade to CSS variable slots with runtime setting. Truly unresolvable patterns bail with a diagnostic. See RFC.md §7: Extraction Pipeline.
+
+## Common Misconceptions
+
+### "Token ref opacity syntax is dead code in createTheme.ts"
+
+- **Claim**: The `{colors.x/40}` opacity modifier appears unused or dead in theme creation code.
+- **Truth**: Token ref opacity is resolved in two places, neither of which is `createTheme.ts`:
+  - The **Rust crate** handles it during extraction via `resolve_single_alias` in `theme_resolver.rs`, emitting `color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-x) 40%, transparent)`.
+  - The **TS pipeline** handles it for global styles via `resolveTokenAliases` in `extract/pipeline/resolve-global-styles.ts`, using the same `color-mix` formula.
+- **Verify**: `grep -r "color-mix" packages/extract/src/theme_resolver.rs` and `grep "color-mix" packages/extract/pipeline/resolve-global-styles.ts`
+
+### "includes() is a runtime no-op — must be a bug"
+
+- **Claim**: `SystemBuilder.includes()` returns `this` unchanged, so it does nothing.
+- **Truth**: `includes()` is a **by-design AST marker**. At build time, `extractSystemFilePackages` in `extract/pipeline/discover-packages.ts` parses the `.includes([...])` call syntax to discover external DS package dependencies. The runtime no-op is intentional — extraction reads the source code, not the runtime behavior.
+- **Verify**: `grep "extractSystemFilePackages" packages/extract/pipeline/discover-packages.ts` and `grep "includes" packages/system/src/SystemBuilder.ts`
+
+### "Module augmentation is an unusual pattern"
+
+- **Claim**: `declare module '@animus-ui/system' { interface Theme extends MyTheme {} }` looks non-standard.
+- **Truth**: This is the **industry-standard pattern** for TypeScript theme typing. Emotion, styled-components, and MUI all use the same `declare module` + interface merging approach. It enables IDE autocomplete and type checking for all token references across your codebase without requiring wrapper types.
+- **Verify**: See [TypeScript Module Augmentation docs](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/declaration-merging.html#module-augmentation) and `grep "declare module" packages/showcase/src/ds.ts`
+
+### "Zero-runtime is misleading — there's still JavaScript"
+
+- **Claim**: Calling it "zero-runtime" is inaccurate because JavaScript runs at render time.
+- **Truth**: "Zero-runtime" means **no style computation at render time**. The runtime (`system/src/runtime/index.ts`, 128 lines) does three things: (1) map prop values to pre-computed class name strings, (2) filter Animus-managed props before passing to the DOM, (3) forward refs. No `useEffect`, no `useLayoutEffect`, no CSSOM manipulation, no style injection, no browser measurement APIs. It is a pure string lookup. See RFC.md §8: Runtime Audit.
+- **Verify**: `wc -l packages/system/src/runtime/index.ts` and `grep -c "useEffect\|useLayoutEffect\|createElement.*style\|document\.\|window\." packages/system/src/runtime/index.ts` (should return 0)
+
+### "Animus ships with built-in prop groups like space, color, typography"
+
+- **Claim**: The framework provides pre-built prop groups that define how CSS properties are organized.
+- **Truth**: **All prop groups are 100% user-defined** via `createSystem().addGroup(name, config)`. The `name` is any string you choose. The `config` is a record of prop definitions you author. The showcase application happens to define groups named `space`, `surface`, `text`, `arrange`, `motion`, and `positioning` — those are that app's design choices, not the framework's opinions. Animus provides convenience prop definition helpers (`space`, `color`, `typography` etc. from `@animus-ui/system/groups`) but using them is optional, and they can be mixed, renamed, or ignored entirely.
+- **Verify**: `grep "addGroup" packages/system/src/SystemBuilder.ts` — note the fully generic `<Name extends string, Conf extends Record<string, Prop>>` signature

+## User Stories
+
+### 1. Core Styling & Dynamic Behavior
+
+#### How do I achieve dynamic styling based on props?
+
+> _"I want to apply different styles based on component props (e.g., `variant="primary"`, `size="large"`) so my components are reusable."_
+
+Use `.variant()` — each variant is a named prop with statically enumerable options. The extraction pipeline sees every combination at build time and emits a CSS class per option. No runtime style computation.
+
+```typescript
+const Button = ds
+  .styles({
+    display: 'inline-flex',
+    cursor: 'pointer',
+    fontFamily: 'mono',
+  })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'variant',
+    variants: {
+      primary: { bg: 'primary', color: 'bg' },
+      secondary: { bg: 'surface', color: 'text' },
+      ghost: { bg: 'transparent', color: 'primary' },
+    },
+    defaultVariant: 'primary',
+  })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'size',
+    variants: {
+      sm: { px: 8, py: 4, fontSize: 12 },
+      md: { px: 16, py: 8, fontSize: 14 },
+      lg: { px: 24, py: 12, fontSize: 16 },
+    },
+    defaultVariant: 'md',
+  })
+  .asElement('button');
+
+// Usage: <Button variant="secondary" size="lg">Click</Button>
+```
+
+For **multi-variant conditions** (e.g., "when variant=primary AND size=sm"), use `.compound()`:
+
+```typescript
+  .compound({ variant: 'primary', size: 'sm' }, { fontWeight: 600 })
+```
+
+For **ad-hoc per-component props** with custom scales or transforms, use `.props()`:
+
+```typescript
+  .props({
+    logoSize: {
+      property: 'fontSize',
+      scale: { xs: 28, sm: 32, md: 64, lg: 72 },
+    },
+  })
+```
+
+For **system-level utility props** (spacing, colors, layout), use `.system()` to expose named prop groups:
+
+```typescript
+  .system({ space: true, surface: true })
+// Enables: <Button mt={16} bg="accent" />
+```
+
+All of these are statically extracted. Values that can't be statically analyzed (variables, ternaries, function calls) gracefully degrade to CSS variable slots with runtime setting — the component still works, it just uses a different delivery mechanism for that specific property. See RFC.md §7.
+
+#### How do I achieve style composition and overriding?
+
+> _"I want to predictably merge external styles with internal styles so consumers can override defaults without specificity wars."_
+
+Every other framework's override story is adversarial — you fight the cascade, fight specificity, reach for `!important`. Animus's override story is cooperative: **the cascade contract IS the override mechanism.**
+
+Each builder method maps to a progressively higher-priority `@layer`:
+
+```
+@layer base       .styles()       "This is what it looks like"
+     ↑ overridden by
+@layer variants   .variant()      "Unless it's this kind"
+     ↑ overridden by
+@layer compounds  .compound()     "Unless these combine"
+     ↑ overridden by
+@layer states     .states()       "Unless it's in this state"
+     ↑ overridden by
+@layer system     .system()       "Unless the consumer sets this prop"
+     ↑ overridden by
+@layer custom     .props()        "Unless the consumer needs this exact thing"
+```
+
+Every override is **safe** because the layer ordering is deterministic. You can't accidentally break something by adding a variant — it lands in `@layer variants`, which is below `@layer states`, so states always win. The cascade contract is a **guarantee**, not a convention.
+
+**`className` passthrough** still works for external overrides. The runtime appends any external `className` after internal Animus classes:
+
+```tsx
+<Button className="custom-override" variant="primary" />
+// Renders: className="animus-Button-abc animus-Button-primary custom-override"
+```
+
+**`Component.extend()` re-enters the ladder.** This is the most powerful composition primitive. An extension returns a fresh builder chain with the parent's entire config accumulated — and each contribution lands in the **correct layer**, after the parent's (source-order win within the same layer). No specificity escalation. Ever.
+
+```typescript
+// Parent: a strict base Button
+const Button = ds
+  .styles({ display: 'inline-flex', cursor: 'pointer' })
+  .variant({ prop: 'size', variants: { sm: { px: 8 }, md: { px: 16 } } })
+  .asElement('button');
+```
+
+Five things you can do with `.extend()`:
+
+**1. Override or add variants at any layer:**
+
+```typescript
+const BrandButton = Button.extend()
+  .styles({ fontFamily: 'brand', letterSpacing: '-0.01em' }) // adds to @layer base
+  .variant({
+    // adds to @layer variants
+    prop: 'intent',
+    variants: { cta: { bg: 'accent', color: 'bg' }, subtle: { bg: 'surface' } },
+  })
+  .asElement('button');
+// BrandButton has size (inherited) + intent (new)
+```
+
+**2. Enable system props the parent locked down:**
+
+```typescript
+const LayoutButton = Button.extend()
+  .system({ space: true }) // parent had no system props
+  .asElement('button');
+// <LayoutButton mt={16} size="sm" /> — spacing now available
+```
+
+**3. Polymorphism via element re-casting:**
+
+```typescript
+const LinkButton = Button.extend()
+  .styles({ textDecoration: 'none' })
+  .asElement('a'); // renders as <a>, not <button>
+// Carries all Button's variants, states, and logic — but renders as an anchor
+```
+
+No `as={Component}` runtime polymorphism. The element is chosen at the creation boundary, and the Rust crate extracts it as a distinct entity.
+
+**4. Inject compound rules targeting parent variants:**
+
+```typescript
+const SpecialButton = Button.extend()
+  .variant({ prop: 'special', variants: { yes: {}, no: {} } })
+  .compound({ size: 'sm', special: 'yes' }, { fontWeight: 700 }) // references parent's 'size'
+  .asElement('button');
+```
+
+The compound condition has access to the full variant registry — parent and extension combined.
+
+**5. Each extension is a distinct extraction entity.** The Rust crate gives each extension its own class names, its own CSS rules, its own variant pruning ledger. An extension's CSS is generated independently and emitted after its parent (topological sort ensures correct ordering). No runtime class merging, no specificity fights.
+
+#### How do I achieve global styling?
+
+> _"I want an API to inject global styles (resets, font-face, keyframes) alongside scoped component styles."_
+
+`createGlobalStyles()` is returned from `createSystem().build()`. It accepts blocks keyed by selector, and supports the same prop shorthand and token references as component styles:
+
+```typescript
+const { system: ds, createGlobalStyles } = createSystem()
+  .addGroup('space', space)
+  .addGroup('surface', { ...color, ...background })
+  .build();
+
+export const globalStyles = createGlobalStyles({
+  '*, *::before, *::after': { boxSizing: 'border-box' },
+  'html, body': { bg: 'bg', color: 'text', m: 0 },
+  a: { color: 'primary', textDecoration: 'none' },
+  '::selection': { bg: 'selection', color: 'selection.text' },
+  '@keyframes fadeIn': {
+    '0%': { opacity: '0' },
+    '100%': { opacity: '1' },
+  },
+  '@font-face': {
+    fontFamily: 'MyFont',
+    src: 'url(/fonts/MyFont.woff2) format("woff2")',
+  },
+});
+```
+
+Global styles emit into `@layer global` — the lowest-priority layer, so component styles always override them.
+
+---
+
+### 2. Responsive Design & Interactivity
+
+#### How do I achieve responsive design?
+
+> _"I want to apply styles across screen sizes using shorthand syntax without manually writing @media rules."_
+
+Use breakpoint-keyed objects. Breakpoints are defined in your theme:
+
+```typescript
+const tokens = createTheme()
+  .addBreakpoints({ sm: 768, md: 1024, lg: 1200 })
+  .build();
+```
+
+Then use responsive objects on any prop. `_` is the base (no media query):
+
+```typescript
+const Container = ds
+  .styles({
+    px: { _: 16, sm: 24, md: 32, lg: 48 },
+    maxWidth: { _: '100%', md: '960px', lg: '1200px' },
+  })
+  .asElement('div');
+```
+
+This extracts to `@media` rules at build time — no runtime breakpoint detection. Works in variants, states, system props, and custom props.
+
+#### How do I achieve state-driven styling?
+
+> _"I want to declare styles for `:hover`, `:focus-visible`, `:disabled` directly in my component."_
+
+Two mechanisms, both colocated in the component definition:
+
+**Pseudo-selectors in any style object** — use CSS nesting syntax:
+
+```typescript
+const Link = ds
+  .styles({
+    color: 'primary',
+    textDecoration: 'none',
+    '&:hover': { textDecoration: 'underline', color: 'primary.hover' },
+    '&:focus-visible': {
+      outline: '2px solid {colors.accent}',
+      outlineOffset: '2px',
+    },
+    '&:disabled': { opacity: '0.4', pointerEvents: 'none' },
+  })
+  .asElement('a');
+```
+
+**`.states()` for consumer-overridable boolean conditions** — activated via boolean props:
+
+```typescript
+const Button = ds
+  .styles({ cursor: 'pointer', opacity: '1' })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'variant',
+    variants: {
+      primary: { bg: 'primary', color: 'bg' },
+      danger: { bg: 'status.error', color: 'bg' },
+    },
+  })
+  .states({
+    isDisabled: { opacity: '0.4', pointerEvents: 'none', cursor: 'default' },
+    isActive: { transform: 'scale(0.97)' },
+    isLoading: { cursor: 'wait', opacity: '0.7' },
+  })
+  .system({ surface: true })
+  .asElement('button');
+
+// State overrides variant styling:
+<Button variant="primary" isDisabled />
+
+// But the consumer can STILL override state styling via system props:
+<Button variant="primary" isDisabled opacity={0.8} />
+// system prop wins — @layer system > @layer states
+```
+
+States sit at the **sweet spot** in the cascade: above variants and compounds, but **below** system and custom props. This is the key to understanding them:
+
+- **Above variants/compounds** — `isDisabled` overrides any variant combination without specificity tricks. In traditional CSS, making `.btn--disabled` beat `.btn--primary.btn--lg` requires `!important`. With states in a higher layer, it just works.
+- **Below system/custom** — the consumer can still override state styles via system props or custom props. The component author asserts defaults for `isDisabled`; the consumer has the final say.
+
+States are boolean toggles — typed props, statically analyzable, and extracted to CSS classes (`.component--stateName`). They represent **conditions that cross-cut all variant combinations** (disabled, loading, active, selected) at the same specificity as consumer-overridable styles.
+
+Active states preserve their semantics on the DOM via **data-attribute passthrough** (`data-{stateName}=""`). The CSS uses class selectors (no specificity cost within the layer); the data attributes exist for **interop with external frameworks** that inspect element state — not as a user-facing feature.
+
+#### Headless UI interop (Radix, Ark-UI, etc.)
+
+States and variants can **piggyback** on external frameworks' prop contracts. The typical use case: slot an Animus component into a Radix or Ark-UI primitive, then map the headless library's data attributes directly to Animus variants or states — placing them in the correct, overridable cascade position.
+
+**Variant piggybacking** — map `data-state` directly as a variant prop:
+
+```typescript
+// Radix/Ark-UI passes data-state="open" | "closed" to slot elements.
+// Map it directly as a variant — styles land in @layer variants:
+const DialogContent = ds
+  .styles({
+    opacity: '0',
+    transform: 'translateY(-8px)',
+    transition: 'opacity 0.2s, transform 0.2s',
+  })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'data-state',
+    variants: {
+      open: { opacity: '1', transform: 'translateY(0)' },
+      closed: { opacity: '0', transform: 'translateY(-8px)' },
+    },
+  })
+  .system({ space: true, surface: true })
+  .asComponent(Dialog.Content);
+```
+
+**State piggybacking** — map `data-open` as a state key for cascade-positioned overrides:
+
+```typescript
+// The headless library sets data-open on the element when active.
+// Map it as a state — styles land in @layer states (consumer-overridable):
+const AccordionContent = ds
+  .styles({ maxHeight: '0', overflow: 'hidden', transition: 'max-height 0.2s' })
+  .states({
+    'data-open': { maxHeight: '500px' },
+  })
+  .system({ space: true })
+  .asComponent(Accordion.Content);
+```
+
+**Boolean prop interop** — headless libraries that pass `disabled={true}`:
+
+```typescript
+const Trigger = ds
+  .styles({ cursor: 'pointer' })
+  .states({
+    disabled: { opacity: '0.4', cursor: 'default', pointerEvents: 'none' },
+  })
+  .system({ surface: true })
+  .asComponent(Popover.Trigger);
+// Consumer can still override: <Trigger disabled opacity={0.8} />
+```
+
+**Why this works:** `data-*` and `aria-*` attributes always pass through to the DOM — even when used as variant or state keys. The attribute is consumed for styling AND forwarded to the underlying element, so the headless library sees it. Animus handles the visual layer in the cascade contract; the headless library controls behavior.
+
+#### How do I achieve complex targeting (pseudo-elements & selectors)?
+
+> _"I want to target `::before`, `::after`, and child selectors without breaking component isolation."_
+
+Standard CSS nesting syntax works in all style positions (base, variants, states):
+
+```typescript
+const ListItem = ds
+  .styles({
+    position: 'relative',
+    '&::before': {
+      content: '"—"',
+      color: 'primary',
+      position: 'absolute',
+      left: '-24px',
+    },
+    '&::after': {
+      content: '""',
+      display: 'block',
+      height: '1px',
+      bg: 'border',
+    },
+    '& > span': { fontWeight: 600 },
+    '& + &': { mt: 8 },
+  })
+  .asElement('li');
+```
+
+The extraction pipeline handles nested selectors by scoping them under the component's generated class name, maintaining isolation. Token references (`'primary'`, `'border'`) and prop shorthands (`bg`, `mt`) work inside nested selectors identically to top-level styles.
+

+
+### 3. Theming & Design Tokens
+
+#### How do I achieve strict design system enforcement?
+
+> _"I want to define tokens that the library enforces, so developers can't use magic numbers or off-brand colors."_
+
+Three-layer enforcement:
+
+**1. Typed scales** — `addScale()` with `emit: true` creates CSS variables. TypeScript restricts prop values to scale keys:
+
+```typescript
+const tokens = createTheme()
+  .addColors({ brand: { primary: '#3b82f6', danger: '#ef4444' } })
+  .addScale({
+    name: 'space',
+    values: { 4: '0.25rem', 8: '0.5rem', 16: '1rem' },
+  })
+  .build();
+```
+
+**2. Module augmentation** — once declared, ALL components get type-checked token access:
+
+```typescript
+declare module '@animus-ui/system' {
+  interface Theme extends typeof tokens {}
+}
+
+// Now: bg: 'brand.primary' ✅  bg: 'not-a-token' ❌ (TS error)
+// And: p: 4 ✅ (maps to 0.25rem)  p: 7 ⚠ (not in scale)
+```
+
+**3. Strict extraction mode** — `strict: true` on the plugin config makes extraction failures throw instead of warn, catching off-system usage in CI.
+
+The system is intentionally **not absolute** — you can still use raw CSS values (`fontSize: '13px'`). The type system warns, but doesn't block. This is by design: constraining expression, not capability.
+
+#### How do I achieve dark mode and multiple themes?
+
+> _"I want to switch themes dynamically without duplicated CSS bundles, using CSS variables."_
+
+`addColorModes()` defines semantic color aliases per mode. All modes compile to a single CSS file using CSS custom properties with `[data-color-mode]` attribute selectors:
+
+```typescript
+const tokens = createTheme()
+  .addColors({
+    gray: { 50: '#fafafa', 900: '#171717', 950: '#000' },
+    blue: { 500: '#3b82f6', 600: '#2563eb' },
+  })
+  .addColorModes('dark', {
+    dark: {
+      primary: 'blue.500',
+      bg: { _: 'gray.950', muted: 'gray.900' },
+      text: { _: 'gray.50', muted: 'gray.400' },
+    },
+    light: {
+      primary: 'blue.600',
+      bg: { _: 'gray.50', muted: 'gray.100' },
+      text: { _: 'gray.950', muted: 'gray.600' },
+    },
+  })
+  .build();
+```
+
+**Switching** is a single DOM attribute — no JS re-render, no duplicated bundles:
+
+```typescript
+document.documentElement.setAttribute('data-color-mode', 'light');
+```
+
+Components reference semantic tokens (`bg: 'bg'`, `color: 'text'`), and the CSS variables resolve per mode automatically. The showcase app runs 10 color modes from a single extracted stylesheet.
+
+#### How do I achieve strong TypeScript integration?
+
+> _"I want autocomplete and type-checking for all style objects and theme tokens."_
+
+Module augmentation gives you full IDE support across the entire builder chain:
+
+```typescript
+// After: declare module '@animus-ui/system' { interface Theme extends MyTheme {} }
+
+// ✅ Autocomplete on token names
+ds.styles({ color: 'primary' }); // suggests: primary, text, bg, ...
+ds.styles({ p: 8 }); // suggests scale keys: 0, 2, 4, 8, 16, ...
+ds.styles({ bg: '{colors.blue.500/40}' }); // opacity modifier syntax
+
+// ✅ Type-state machine prevents out-of-order calls
+ds.styles({}).variant({}).compound({}); // ✅ correct order
+ds.styles({}).compound({}).variant({}); // ❌ TS error — compound after variant
+
+// ✅ Variant prop types are inferred
+const Button = ds
+  .styles({})
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'size',
+    variants: { sm: {}, md: {}, lg: {} },
+  })
+  .asElement('button');
+
+// <Button size="xl" /> → TS error: "xl" not in "sm" | "md" | "lg"
+
+// ✅ System group activation is typed
+ds.styles({}).system({ space: true }); // ✅ enables p, m, gap, etc.
+ds.styles({}).system({ nonexistent: true }); // ❌ TS error
+```
+
+Type safety extends to `compose()` shared props, `.extend()` chains, and custom `.props()` definitions.

+
+### 4. Architecture, Performance, & Frameworks
+
+#### How do I achieve React Server Component (RSC) compatibility?
+
+> _"I want styles to work on the server without React Context or client-side JavaScript."_
+
+**Individual components are RSC-safe by default.** The runtime is a pure function: props in → className string out. No `useState`, no `useEffect`, no `useContext`, no `createContext`. Components created via `.asElement()`, `.asComponent()`, or `.asClass()` work in Server Components without any directive.
+
+**The exception is `compose()`.** Multi-slot composition uses React context to synchronize shared variant props between Root and child slots. Components created via `compose()` require `'use client'` in App Router. If you need RSC-compatible multi-slot components, use individual `.asElement()` components and pass variant props explicitly instead of relying on context synchronization.
+
+```typescript
+// ✅ RSC-safe — no context
+const Card = ds.styles({ bg: 'surface', p: 16 }).asElement('article');
+const CardHeader = ds.styles({ fontWeight: 600 }).asElement('header');
+
+// ⚠ Needs 'use client' — uses React context
+const Composed = compose(
+  { Root: Card, Header: CardHeader },
+  { shared: { density: true } }
+);
+```
+
+#### How do I achieve a small bundle size?
+
+> _"I want styles extracted to static CSS so the browser doesn't pay a JS parsing penalty."_
+
+This is the core value proposition. At build time:
+
+1. **All styles extract to a single `.css` file** — no JavaScript ships for style definitions
+2. **Builder chains are replaced with `createComponent()` calls** — the multi-method chain disappears from the bundle entirely
+3. **The remaining runtime is 128 lines** — pure string lookup mapping props to pre-computed class names
+4. **No style injection at runtime** — no `<style>` tags, no `CSSStyleSheet.insertRule()`, no CSSOM manipulation
+
+The browser loads one CSS file (cacheable, parseable in parallel with JS) and a minimal runtime that maps prop values to class name strings. See RFC.md §8: Runtime Audit.
+
+#### How do I avoid unused CSS (dead code elimination)?
+
+> _"I want the build tool to automatically remove styles for unused components."_
+
+The Rust extraction pipeline includes a **reconciliation phase** that prunes CSS at two levels:
+
+**1. Component-level elimination** — if a component is defined but never rendered in JSX anywhere in your codebase, its entire CSS output (base + variants + states) is eliminated. The Rust crate scans all JSX in your project to build a usage ledger.
+
+**2. Variant/state pruning** — for components that ARE rendered, only the variant options and states actually used in JSX are kept. If you define `size: { sm, md, lg }` but only ever write `<Button size="sm" />` and `<Button size="md" />`, the CSS for `lg` is pruned from the output.
+
+**Exceptions** (conservatively kept):
+
+- Components used as parents in `.extend()` chains — children inherit their styles
+- `.asClass()` resolvers — usage can't be detected via JSX scanning
+- `compose()` slot components — marked as rendered via separate analysis
+- Variant props with no detectable usage data — kept entirely (conservative fallback)
+
+**Important:** Reconciliation runs in **production builds only**. Dev mode keeps everything for fast iteration. Diagnostics report what was pruned:
+
+```
+[animus] Reconciliation: 12 kept, 8 variants pruned, 3 states pruned
+⚠ Ghost eliminated: component not rendered and not a parent
+```
+
+## Architectural Edge Cases
+
+These address specific concerns raised during external review about where static extraction might break down.
+
+### "What happens when variant values are dynamic or CMS-driven?"
+
+> _`<Button size={userSettings.compact ? 'sm' : 'lg'} />` — won't DCE prune `'lg'` if the scanner can't see it?_
+
+**No.** The scanner classifies any non-string-literal expression as `__dynamic__`. The reconciler treats `__dynamic__` as "usage exists but options are unknown" and **conservatively keeps ALL variant options** for that prop.
+
+The pruning logic only removes a variant option when it can **prove** the option is never used — meaning every single JSX usage of that prop across the entire codebase uses static string literals, and none of those literals match the option in question.
+
+| JSX Pattern               | Scanner Records          | Reconciler Behavior               |
+| ------------------------- | ------------------------ | --------------------------------- |
+| `size="sm"`               | `"sm"`                   | Keeps only `"sm"` (if sole usage) |
+| `size={variable}`         | `__dynamic__`            | Keeps ALL options                 |
+| `size={x ? 'sm' : 'lg'}`  | `__dynamic__`            | Keeps ALL options                 |
+| `size={cmsValue}`         | `__dynamic__`            | Keeps ALL options                 |
+| prop omitted, has default | `__default__` → resolved | Keeps default option              |
+| prop omitted, no default  | `__default__` → cleaned  | Keeps ALL options                 |
+
+**No safelist configuration is needed.** The architecture is conservative by default — it only prunes what it can prove is dead. One dynamic usage of a variant prop anywhere in the project disables pruning for ALL options of that prop on that component.
+
+**The narrow edge case:** If a component is used 100% statically in all JSX (`size="sm"` and `size="md"` everywhere), but a CMS injects `size="lg"` at runtime — that CSS _would_ be pruned. This requires: (a) zero dynamic usage sites AND (b) the CMS uses a value not present in any static site. In practice, if you have CMS-driven variants, at least one usage site will be dynamic (`size={cmsValue}`), which triggers the conservative path.
+
+### "Don't complex generics tank the TypeScript language server?"
+
+> _Type-state machines with deep generic chaining can make TS crawl in large monorepos._
+
+This is a real concern we actively mitigate at the type architecture level:
+
+1. **Generic defaults = lazy evaluation** — TypeScript doesn't instantiate a generic until it's needed. Default type parameters (`= {}`) on builder methods mean unused branches never evaluate.
+
+2. **Mapped flatten = cache boundary** — Where the type system accumulates generic depth (e.g., after chaining `.variant().variant().variant()`), we insert explicit `Flatten<T>` mapped types that force TypeScript to resolve and cache the intermediate type, resetting the depth counter.
+
+3. **Narrowing, not widening** — The type-state machine REMOVES methods at each phase (e.g., after `.variant()`, the `.styles()` method disappears). This means the type gets simpler as you chain, not more complex. The widest type is at the start; the narrowest is at the terminal.
+
+4. **Known TS2589/TS2590 mitigations** — We've encountered and solved both "type instantiation is excessively deep" errors. The fix pattern: always inline narrowed primitive types at constraint boundaries rather than relying on type alias caching. See `AnyBrandedComponent` constraint on `compose()`.
+
+### "How do custom transforms execute if extraction is Rust?"
+
+> _`createTransform(name, fn)` is JavaScript, but the Rust crate does extraction. How does the bridge work?_
+
+**Transforms don't execute in Rust.** The pipeline uses a placeholder pattern:
+
+1. **Rust emits placeholders** — When the crate encounters a prop with a named transform, it emits `__TRANSFORM__name__rawValue__` as the CSS value (e.g., `flex-basis: __TRANSFORM__size__4__`).
+
+2. **TS post-processing resolves them** — After the Rust crate returns CSS, the plugin runs `resolveTransformPlaceholders(css, transforms)` in JavaScript, which finds each placeholder, calls the corresponding JS function, and replaces the placeholder with the result.
+
+3. **Serialization for subprocesses** — In the Next.js plugin, transform functions are serialized via `.toString()` in the `loadSystem` subprocess and reconstructed via `new Function()` in-process. No cross-process function calls needed.
+
+This means transforms can be arbitrary JavaScript — closures, math, string manipulation, anything. The Rust crate never needs to understand the transform logic; it just preserves the name and raw value for JS to resolve later.
+
+**Verify:** `grep "__TRANSFORM__" packages/extract/src/theme_resolver.rs` and `grep "resolveTransformPlaceholders" packages/extract/pipeline/resolve-transforms.ts`
+
+## Known Limitations
+
+| Limitation                          | Status             | Detail                                                                                                                                                                                                                 |
+| ----------------------------------- | ------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| Single CSS file output              | `planned`          | All styles in one file — no per-route code splitting. See `openspec/changes/route-css-splitting/`.                                                                                                                     |
+| Static-only extraction values       | `known-constraint` | Style values must be static literals (strings, numbers, booleans). Dynamic expressions degrade to CSS variable slots. This is fundamental to the zero-runtime model. See RFC.md §7: What Gets Extracted.               |
+| `compose()` requires `'use client'` | `known-constraint` | Uses React context (`createContext` + `useContext`) for shared prop synchronization. Not RSC-compatible without the directive.                                                                                         |
+| Standalone Webpack plugin           | `not-planned`      | Webpack support exists via the Next.js plugin. No standalone `@animus-ui/webpack-plugin` is planned.                                                                                                                   |
+| Scale name rebinding for helpers    | `designing`        | Pre-built prop helpers (e.g., `space` from `@animus-ui/system/groups`) hardcode scale names. Customizing which scale a helper binds to requires copying the definition. See `openspec/changes/group-scale-factories/`. |
+| Named selector registry             | `designing`        | No `.addSelectors()` for a shared CSS selector vocabulary. See `openspec/changes/selector-registry/`.                                                                                                                  |
+| Typed opacity modifier syntax       | `designing`        | `{colors.x/40}` works at extraction time but TypeScript doesn't validate the syntax in prop types yet.                                                                                                                 |
+
+## Adoption
+
+### Vite Setup (minimum)
+
+```typescript
+// vite.config.ts
+import { animusExtract } from '@animus-ui/vite-plugin';
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [react(), animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })],
+});
+```
+
+```typescript
+// src/main.tsx — you must import the virtual stylesheet
+import 'virtual:animus/styles.css';
+```
+
+The `virtual:animus/styles.css` import is a Vite virtual module served by the plugin. Without it, no styles load.
+
+### Next.js Setup (minimum)
+
+```typescript
+// next.config.ts
+import { withAnimus } from '@animus-ui/next-plugin';
+
+export default withAnimus({ system: './src/ds.ts' })({
+  // ...your Next.js config
+});
+```
+
+CSS injection is automatic — the plugin's webpack loader injects `import '.animus/styles.css'` into your root layout (`app/layout`) or custom app (`pages/_app`). No manual import needed. The `.animus/` directory is generated at build time and should be gitignored.
+
+### Module Augmentation (required for type safety)
+
+```typescript
+// src/ds.ts
+import { createTheme, createSystem } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+export const tokens = createTheme()
+  .addColors({
+    /* your palettes */
+  })
+  .addScale({
+    name: 'space',
+    values: {
+      /* your scale */
+    },
+  })
+  .build();
+
+export type MyTheme = typeof tokens;
+
+declare module '@animus-ui/system' {
+  interface Theme extends MyTheme {}
+}
+
+export const { system: ds } = createSystem()
+  .addGroup('layout', {
+    /* your prop definitions */
+  })
+  .build();
+```
+
+### Incremental Adoption
+
+Animus works alongside existing CSS. You can adopt it one component at a time:
+
+- The plugin processes only files that use `ds.styles()` chains — all other files pass through unchanged.
+- Generated CSS uses `@layer` scoping, so it won't conflict with existing stylesheets (unless your existing styles also use the same layer names).
+- You can start with `.asClass()` for framework-agnostic class names if you're not using React, or `.asElement()` / `.asComponent()` for full React integration.
+- One `system` file per application. One `import` of the virtual stylesheet. Define components as needed.

+# `legacy/` — Archived Packages
+
+Packages here are preserved for reference only. They do not install, build, or publish, and are excluded from the active dependency graph.
+
+For the import-prohibition rule (`packages/*` and `e2e/*` MUST NOT import from `legacy/*`), see root `CLAUDE.md` § One-Way Dependency Rule.
+
+## Current Legacy Packages
+
+| Path | Former published name | Status |
+|---|---|---|
+| `legacy/core/` | `@animus-ui/core` | Old emotion-runtime CSS-in-JS foundation. Superseded by `@animus-ui/system`. |
+| `legacy/theming/` | `@animus-ui/theming` | Theme utilities built on `core`. `createTheme` / `ThemeBuilder` re-exported by `@animus-ui/system`. |
+| `legacy/ui/` | `@animus-ui/components` | Legacy component library built on `core` + `theming`. No replacement in active graph. |
+| `legacy/_docs/` | `@animus-ui/docs` | Old documentation app. Superseded by `@animus-ui/showcase`. |
+| `legacy/runtime/` | `@animus-ui/runtime` | Runtime shim stub. Orphan — imported by nothing. |
+
+## No Manifests
+
+Legacy packages have no `package.json` files — they are pure reference source. This is intentional: there's no installable target, and the omission removes legacy declarations from the surface that security scanners (Dependabot, GitHub Advisory) crawl. Anyone trying to build or install from a legacy subdirectory will fail at the manifest lookup; that failure is the intended signal. For the version each package shipped at before archival, use `git log --follow legacy/<name>/package.json` to recover the deleted manifest.
+
+## Archived Openspec Path References
+
+Archived `openspec/changes/archive/*/` content may reference `packages/<legacy-name>/` paths that no longer exist on disk. These are historical records and are NOT rewritten. Use `git log --follow legacy/<name>/<file>` to trace history across the move.

+# LEGACY — this package is archived. See root CLAUDE.md § Legacy Packages.
+
+# @animus-ui/core — Legacy Builder Implementation
+
+**Status: Legacy.** Consumers use `@animus-ui/system`, which contains its own flattened implementation. Do not add new API surface here — extend system instead.
+
+## What This Package Is
+
+Runtime implementation of the builder chain (Animus.ts, AnimusExtended.ts) and prop system (config.ts, groups). System imports from core at build time and flattens into its own dist.
+
+## Architecture: Backwards Inheritance
+
+The 6-class hierarchy (`Animus` → `AnimusWithBase` → ... → `AnimusWithAll`) uses backwards inheritance — each child class extends its parent and removes preceding methods. This enforces cascade ordering at the type level without runtime checks.
+
+**Why backwards:** The chain builds UP (styles → variant → states), but each new stage needs to hide previous-stage methods. In normal inheritance, children add methods. Here, children constrain by inheriting only what's still callable. The "parent" in the class hierarchy is actually the LATER stage.
+
+## Prop Config
+
+`src/config.ts` defines the canonical prop registry: 13 groups (space, color, typography, layout, etc.) with ~80 individual props. Each prop specifies `{ property, scale?, transform?, negative?, strict? }`.
+
+This config is serialized by `ds.serialize()` and consumed by both the Rust extraction crate and the runtime.

+# LEGACY — this package is archived. See root CLAUDE.md § Legacy Packages.
+
+# @animus-ui/theming — Legacy Theme Builder
+
+**Status: Legacy.** Consumers use `createTheme` and `ThemeBuilder` from `@animus-ui/system`, which contains its own implementation. Do not add new API surface here — extend system instead.
+
+## What This Package Is
+
+ThemeBuilder fluent API for defining design tokens and their CSS variable bindings. System re-exports `createTheme`, `ThemeBuilder`, `flattenScale`, and `serializeTokens`.
+
+## Emission Tracking
+
+Not all scales produce CSS variables. The distinction matters for extraction:
+
+- `addColors({...})` — always emits CSS variables (`--color-primary`, etc.)
+- `addScale({ name, values, emit: true })` — opts into CSS variable emission
+- `addScale({ name, values })` — raw values only, no CSS variables
+
+The `Emitted` generic parameter accumulates through the builder chain, tracking which scales have CSS variables. This powers `EmittedScales<T>` and `EmittedTokenPaths<T>` — used to validate `{scale.key}` token references at the type level.
+
+## serialize() Output
+
+`tokens.serialize()` produces the `SerializedTheme` consumed by the extraction pipeline:
+
+| Field | Content | Consumer |
+|-------|---------|----------|
+| `scalesJson` | Flattened `"scale.key" → "value"` | Rust theme_resolver |
+| `variableMapJson` | `"colors.primary" → "--color-primary"` | Rust token alias resolution |
+| `variableCss` | `:root { --color-*: ... }` declarations | Vite plugin virtual module |
+| `contextualVarsJson` | Per-scale contextual var names | Rust contextual resolution |

+## Context
+
+The Animus monorepo (5 packages, linear dependency chain: core → theming → ui → _integration → _docs) currently uses a layered toolchain that accumulated over years:
+
+- **Package management**: Yarn Classic v1 with `yarn.lock`, enforced via `engines.npm: "please-use-yarn"`
+- **Orchestration**: NX 15.8.6 (with nx-cloud remote caching) + Lerna 6.5.1 (independent versioning, publish)
+- **Transpilation**: Babel 7.27 with babel-preset-codecademy (fossil ES2020 syntax transforms), @emotion/babel-plugin, babel-plugin-macros, @babel/preset-typescript
+- **Bundling**: Rollup 3.19 with rollup-plugin-typescript2 + @rollup/plugin-babel
+- **Testing**: Jest 30 + babel-jest + jsdom + @emotion/jest
+- **Formatting**: Prettier 2.5 (dead — Biome replaced it) + Biome 2.0
+- **Docs**: Next.js 14 with @next/mdx, deployed to Netlify (no longer published)
+- **CI**: Two GitHub Actions workflows for canary + beta npm publishing (not actively publishing)
+
+The docs site is no longer deployed. Packages are not being published to npm. The `babel-preset-codecademy` contains only transforms for language features that are now native (optional chaining, nullish coalescing, class properties, decorators). The @emotion/babel-plugin provides dev-only auto-labeling that isn't needed.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Replace entire toolchain with 4 tools: Bun (pkg/run/test), Rolldown (bundle), tsc (types), Biome (lint/fmt)
+- Zero changes to library source code (`src/` directories untouched)
+- Maintain identical build output for published packages (ES modules + .d.ts)
+- Single CI workflow that validates the monorepo (lint + typecheck + test)
+- Drastically simplified root and per-package configuration
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Package publishing infrastructure (re-engineer later when needed)
+- Docs site rebuild (keep files as reference, recreate separately)
+- Upgrading or changing Emotion runtime (stays as-is)
+- Migrating @emotion/jest test assertions (owner handles separately)
+- Changing TypeScript compiler options or strictness
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Bun replaces Yarn + NX + Lerna + Jest
+
+**Choice**: Bun as the single runtime — package manager, workspace manager, script runner, and test runner.
+
+**Why**: Bun natively handles workspaces (compatible with `package.json` `workspaces` field), runs TypeScript/JSX without a transpiler, and includes a Jest-compatible test runner. For a 5-package monorepo with a linear dependency chain, dedicated orchestration tools (NX, Lerna) add complexity without proportional value. `bun run --filter` provides targeted package execution.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Keep NX for build caching + affected detection. Rejected because the build graph is simple (core → theming → ui) and full builds are fast enough without caching for this repo size.
+
+### 2. Rolldown replaces Rollup + Babel + TypeScript plugin
+
+**Choice**: Rolldown as the library bundler.
+
+**Why**: Rolldown is Rollup-compatible (same config API) but Rust-native, handles TypeScript and JSX natively without plugins, and eliminates the Babel dependency entirely. The current Rollup config is minimal (~15 lines) and maps directly to Rolldown. Output format stays ES modules. This also future-proofs for the Rust extraction pipeline (Rolldown is built on OXC, same parser the extraction plan uses).
+
+**Alternative considered**: `bun build` as bundler. Rejected because Rolldown's Rollup compatibility makes the migration trivial (near-identical config), and Rolldown provides better control over output format for library publishing.
+
+### 3. Docs package becomes inert reference
+
+**Choice**: Keep `_docs/` source files (components, theme, pages) but strip all build tooling. Remove Next.js, MDX plugins, Babel deps, build scripts.
+
+**Why**: The docs site is no longer published. The source files serve as real-world usage examples of the Animus API (theme.ts, component compositions). Keeping them as reference costs nothing. Rebuilding the docs site is a separate future effort, likely with Vite.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Delete _docs entirely. Rejected because the theme file and component examples are valuable reference material for the extraction work ahead.
+
+### 4. Remove all publishing infrastructure
+
+**Choice**: Delete both GitHub Actions publish workflows, remove Lerna publish config, remove npm publish-related package.json fields from being actively maintained.
+
+**Why**: Packages are not currently being published. When publishing resumes, it should be re-engineered for the new toolchain (potentially `bun publish` or a simple script) rather than maintaining stale Lerna-based workflows.
+
+### 5. tsc stays for type checking only (no emit)
+
+**Choice**: Keep TypeScript compiler for `--noEmit` type checking. Rolldown handles actual compilation and emit.
+
+**Why**: Bun and Rolldown handle runtime TS transpilation but neither performs full type checking. tsc remains the authority for type correctness. This is already the pattern (`"compile": "tsc --noEmit"`) — we're just making it the ONLY role tsc plays.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Bun workspace compatibility]** → Yarn v1 `nohoist` for `@types` may not have a direct Bun equivalent. Mitigation: test that TypeScript resolution works correctly after migration; `@types` hoisting behavior is generally fine with Bun's module resolution.
+
+**[Rolldown maturity]** → Rolldown is newer than Rollup. Mitigation: the Rollup compatibility layer is well-tested, and our config is minimal. If Rolldown has issues, falling back to Rollup is trivial (same config format).
+
+**[bun:test compatibility]** → `@emotion/jest` matchers (`toHaveStyleRule`) won't work in bun:test. Mitigation: explicitly deferred — owner handles emotion test migration separately. Core unit tests (createAnimus.test.ts) use standard assertions that port directly.
+
+**[CI runner support]** → GitHub Actions needs `oven-sh/setup-bun` action. Mitigation: this is a well-maintained official action, widely used.
+
+**[Netlify build]** → Netlify needs Bun available in build environment. Mitigation: if no site is deployed, netlify.toml can be removed entirely. If needed later, Netlify supports Bun natively.

+## Why
+
+The Animus monorepo has accumulated ~25 build/test/publish tools around 3 packages of functional code. Yarn v1, NX 15.8, Lerna 6.5, Babel 7.27 (with a fossil codecademy preset of now-native syntax transforms), Rollup with Babel+TS plugins, Jest with babel-jest, Prettier (already replaced by Biome), Next.js for a docs site that's no longer published, and two GitHub Actions publish workflows for a package that isn't actively publishing. The toolchain is heavier than the code it serves.
+
+Bun, Rolldown, tsc, and Biome can replace all of it. The core library code (`src/` directories) requires zero changes — this is purely scaffolding surgery.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **BREAKING**: Replace Yarn v1 with Bun as package manager, script runner, and test runner
+- **BREAKING**: Replace Rollup 3.19 + rollup-plugin-typescript2 + @rollup/plugin-babel with Rolldown
+- Remove Babel entirely (core, presets, plugins, emotion plugin, macros) — all transforms are native ES2022+ or handled by Rolldown/Bun
+- Remove NX 15.8.6 + nx-cloud — Bun workspaces + `--filter` sufficient for 5-package linear dependency chain
+- Remove Lerna 6.5.1 — not publishing packages currently; re-engineer when needed
+- Remove Jest 30 + babel-jest + jsdom — Bun's native test runner replaces
+- Remove Prettier 2.5.1 — already fully replaced by Biome 2.0
+- Remove Next.js 14 from docs package — site is no longer published; keep source files as reference, strip build tooling
+- Remove both GitHub Actions publish workflows (publish-alpha, publish-beta)
+- Remove Netlify Next.js plugin — simplify or remove netlify.toml
+- Simplify root package.json scripts from 12 to ~5
+- Add single CI workflow: lint + type-check + test
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `bun-workspace`: Bun as package manager with native workspace support, replacing Yarn v1 + NX + Lerna orchestration
+- `rolldown-build`: Rolldown as library bundler for published packages, replacing Rollup + Babel + TypeScript plugin chain
+- `bun-test`: Bun native test runner replacing Jest + babel-jest + jsdom
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+_(none — no spec-level behavior changes to builder-chain, extension-system, or prop-system)_
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Root config**: package.json, lockfile, all build/test config files replaced or removed
+- **Per-package config**: babel.config.js, jest.config.js, rollup.config.js removed from each package; replaced with rolldown.config.ts
+- **CI/CD**: Both publish workflows removed, replaced with single lint+typecheck+test workflow
+- **Deployment**: Netlify config simplified or removed (no active deploy target)
+- **Dependencies**: ~40+ devDependencies removed, ~3 added (bun implicit, rolldown)
+- **Source code**: Zero changes to any `src/` directory
+- **Published packages**: Build output format unchanged (ES modules, .d.ts declarations)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Bun native test runner
+Tests SHALL run via `bun test`. No Jest, babel-jest, or jest-environment-jsdom dependencies SHALL be required.
+
+#### Scenario: Run all tests from root
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun test` from the repository root
+- **THEN** all test files across packages are discovered and executed
+
+#### Scenario: Run package-specific tests
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun test` from within `packages/core`
+- **THEN** only tests in that package execute
+
+### Requirement: No Jest configuration
+The repository SHALL NOT contain Jest configuration files. All `jest.config.js`, `jest.config.base.js`, and `tsconfig.jest.json` files SHALL be removed.
+
+#### Scenario: Jest config removal
+- **WHEN** searching the repository for Jest configuration
+- **THEN** no `jest.config.*` files exist at any level
+- **THEN** no `jest`, `babel-jest`, `jest-environment-*`, or `jest-junit` entries exist in any `package.json`
+
+### Requirement: Test file compatibility
+Existing test files SHALL work with bun:test with minimal changes. `describe`, `it`, `expect` APIs are compatible between Jest and bun:test. Import adjustments (e.g., `import { describe, it, expect } from 'bun:test'`) SHALL be applied where needed.
+
+#### Scenario: Core unit tests pass
+- **WHEN** running `bun test` against `packages/core/__tests__/`
+- **THEN** all existing unit tests pass (with import adjustments only, no logic changes)
+
+### Requirement: DOM test environment
+Tests requiring DOM APIs SHALL use bun:test's built-in happy-dom support rather than jsdom.
+
+#### Scenario: DOM environment available
+- **WHEN** a test file requires DOM APIs (document, window)
+- **THEN** happy-dom provides the DOM environment without external dependencies

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Bun as package manager
+The monorepo SHALL use Bun as the sole package manager. `bun install` SHALL resolve all workspace dependencies and produce a `bun.lockb` lockfile. No other package manager lockfiles (yarn.lock, package-lock.json) SHALL exist in the repository.
+
+#### Scenario: Clean install
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun install` from the repository root
+- **THEN** all workspace packages and their dependencies are installed, and `bun.lockb` is created
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace dependency resolution
+- **WHEN** `@animus-ui/theming` declares a dependency on `@animus-ui/core`
+- **THEN** Bun resolves it to the local workspace package (not a registry version)
+
+### Requirement: Bun workspace script execution
+The monorepo SHALL use Bun's native workspace features for running scripts across packages. No dedicated orchestration tool (NX, Lerna, Turborepo) SHALL be required.
+
+#### Scenario: Run build across all packages
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run build` from the root
+- **THEN** all active workspace packages are built in dependency order (core → theming → ui)
+
+#### Scenario: Run script in specific package
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter @animus-ui/core build`
+- **THEN** only the core package build script executes
+
+### Requirement: Simplified root scripts
+The root `package.json` SHALL contain no more than 6 scripts covering: build, test, type-check, lint, format, and dev. Script commands SHALL use `bun` (not yarn, npx, or nx).
+
+#### Scenario: Root script inventory
+- **WHEN** examining root `package.json` scripts
+- **THEN** each script uses `bun run`, `bun test`, `tsc`, or `biome` — no references to yarn, npx, nx, lerna, or jest
+
+### Requirement: No orchestration tools
+The repository SHALL NOT depend on NX, Lerna, or equivalent monorepo orchestration tools. Their configuration files (nx.json, lerna.json) SHALL NOT exist.
+
+#### Scenario: Clean config
+- **WHEN** listing root configuration files
+- **THEN** nx.json and lerna.json do not exist
+- **THEN** package.json devDependencies contain no nx, @nrwl/*, or lerna entries

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Rolldown as library bundler
+Each published package (core, theming, ui) SHALL use Rolldown to produce ES module bundles. Rolldown SHALL handle TypeScript and JSX compilation natively without Babel or separate TypeScript emit plugins.
+
+#### Scenario: Core package build
+- **WHEN** `bun run build` executes in `packages/core`
+- **THEN** Rolldown produces `dist/index.js` (ES module format) with all `node_modules` externalized
+
+#### Scenario: TypeScript declaration output
+- **WHEN** a package is built
+- **THEN** `dist/index.d.ts` declaration files are generated (via tsc or Rolldown dts plugin)
+
+### Requirement: No Babel in build pipeline
+The build pipeline SHALL NOT use Babel for any purpose. No `babel.config.js`, `.babelrc`, or Babel-related dependencies SHALL exist in the repository.
+
+#### Scenario: Babel removal verification
+- **WHEN** searching the repository for Babel configuration files
+- **THEN** no `babel.config.js`, `.babelrc`, or `babel.config.json` files exist at any level
+- **THEN** no `@babel/*`, `babel-*`, or `babel-preset-*` entries exist in any `package.json`
+
+### Requirement: Shared Rolldown base config
+A shared Rolldown configuration SHALL be defined at the root. Per-package configs SHALL extend the shared base with minimal overrides (entry point, externals).
+
+#### Scenario: Per-package config
+- **WHEN** examining a package's `rolldown.config.ts`
+- **THEN** it imports and extends the root shared config
+- **THEN** package-specific config is no more than ~10 lines
+
+### Requirement: Build output equivalence
+The Rolldown build output SHALL be functionally equivalent to the current Rollup output: ES module format, single `dist/index.js` entry, all external dependencies excluded from the bundle.
+
+#### Scenario: Output format
+- **WHEN** inspecting `dist/index.js` after a Rolldown build
+- **THEN** the file uses ES module syntax (import/export)
+- **THEN** no `node_modules` code is inlined

+## Context
+
+Animus is a type-state machine CSS-in-JS framework where builder chain order enforces cascade priority. Today, all styles are computed at runtime via Emotion. The chain's strict ordering (styles → variants → states → groups → props) maps directly to CSS `@layer` declarations — a mapping no other framework implements.
+
+A previous JS/Babel-based extraction POC was unacceptably slow and was abandoned. This design uses a Rust crate composing production-grade crates (the same way Rolldown is built) to achieve 5-10x faster extraction than JS-based approaches.
+
+The existing builder API is stable and unchanged. The theming system already generates CSS custom properties for color modes, which means scale lookups resolve to CSS variable references — already static.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Extract static builder chains to `@layer`-structured CSS at build time
+- Replace Emotion runtime with ~500 byte shim for extracted components
+- Handle pseudo-selectors, responsive objects, multi-variant chains, theme scale lookups
+- Bail gracefully to Emotion for non-extractable chains
+- Production-only extraction (dev mode unchanged)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- System prop extraction (`.groups()`) — Arc 2
+- Cross-file `.extend()` support — Arc 3
+- `.asComponent()` wrapping — Arc 2+
+- `.props()` custom prop extraction — Arc 2
+- Dead variant elimination (usage-based tree shaking) — Arc 4
+- Dev mode extraction or HMR support — future arc
+- Any changes to the builder chain API or extension system
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Rust Crate Composing OXC + Lightning CSS + string_wizard
+
+**Choice**: Single Rust crate at `packages/extract/` that links OXC, Lightning CSS, string_wizard, and NAPI-RS at compile time. Exposed to JS via one NAPI function.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- **Pure JS with Rolldown's transform hook**: Rolldown's `transform` hook provides pre-parsed AST and magic-string. But JS-based AST walking is 5x slower than native at Blockworks scale (8ms vs 1.6ms per file). At 1,789 files with cascade invalidation, this compounds to seconds.
+- **SWC plugin**: OXC is Rolldown's parser and the future of the VoidZero ecosystem. SWC is architecturally divergent.
+- **Babel plugin**: Already failed. Too slow, too much overhead.
+
+**Rationale**: This is crate composition, not FFI. The Rust binary links all crates at compile time. The only JS↔Rust boundary crossing is the single `extract()` call per file.
+
+### 2. Shared @layer Set (Not Per-Component)
+
+**Choice**: All components inject into the same 5 layers: `@layer base, variants, states, system, custom`.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- **Per-component layers** (`@layer Button.base, Button.variants`): Creates O(n) layer declarations. At 1,789 components, the layer order declaration alone would be enormous. Also makes extension ordering impossible without knowing the full component tree.
+
+**Rationale**: Shared layers match the builder chain's semantic meaning. `.styles()` IS `@layer base` — not "this component's base." Extensions emit after parents within the same layer (same specificity, later source order wins).
+
+### 3. Theme Evaluation at Build Start
+
+**Choice**: The Vite plugin evaluates the theme module at `buildStart` using Vite's `ssrLoadModule()`, flattens all scales to `HashMap<(scale_name, key), css_value>`, serializes to JSON, and passes to every Rust `extract()` call.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- **Static analysis of theme**: The theme uses functions (`addScale('shadows', ({ colors }) => ...)`) that depend on computed color values. Static analysis can't evaluate these.
+- **Embed theme in Rust crate**: Would couple the crate to specific theme shapes.
+
+**Rationale**: The theme only changes on full rebuild, not per-file. Evaluating once at build start and passing as serialized JSON is both correct and fast.
+
+### 4. Deterministic Class Name Strategy
+
+**Choice**: `animus-{binding}-{contenthash8}` where `binding` is the JS variable name and `contenthash` is an 8-char hash of the normalized chain descriptor.
+
+**Rationale**: Binding name provides debuggability. Content hash provides uniqueness and cache stability. Same chain content = same hash = same class name across builds.
+
+### 5. Bail-to-Emotion as First-Class Feature
+
+**Choice**: Non-extractable chains are left completely untouched. The Rust crate returns `extractable: false` with a reason, and the Vite plugin skips the file transformation.
+
+**Rationale**: The @layer specificity trap means unlayered CSS (Emotion) ALWAYS beats layered CSS. If we partially extract a chain, the unlayered runtime styles will override the layered extracted styles. Extraction must be all-or-nothing per chain.
+
+### 6. Pipeline Stage Architecture

+  CSS file          Transformed JS
+```
+
+### 7. Prop Config Serialization
+
+**Choice**: Serialize the prop config from `config.ts` (all 13 prop groups with their property/scale/transform mappings) to JSON at build start. Pass to Rust alongside theme JSON.
+
+**Challenge**: Transforms are JS functions (`size`, `borderShorthand`, `gridItemRatio`). These cannot be serialized.
+
+**Solution**: Reimplement the 4 transforms in Rust (< 100 lines total). The serialized config includes a `transform` field with a string identifier (`"size"`, `"borderShorthand"`, `"gridItemRatio"`) that the Rust crate maps to its native implementation.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Cross-platform binary distribution]** → NAPI-RS handles this with per-platform npm packages (`@animus-ui/extract-darwin-arm64`, etc.). Established pattern used by Rolldown, SWC, Biome.
+
+**[@layer browser support]** → CSS `@layer` is supported in all modern browsers (Chrome 99+, Firefox 97+, Safari 15.4+). For the target audience (React apps), this is sufficient. No polyfill needed.
+
+**[Theme evaluation timing]** → `ssrLoadModule()` requires Vite's module graph to be ready. Using `buildStart` hook should be sufficient. If theme imports are complex, may need `configResolved` + lazy evaluation on first transform.
+
+**[Content hash stability]** → Class names must be stable across builds for caching. The hash input must be the normalized chain descriptor (sorted keys, resolved values), not source positions or whitespace.
+
+**[Emotion/extracted CSS specificity conflict]** → Unlayered CSS always beats layered CSS. If a page has both extracted components (layered) and Emotion components (unlayered), the Emotion styles will win in conflicts. This is correct behavior — non-extracted components should use runtime styles. But it means you cannot partially extract an extension chain: if parent extracts and child doesn't (or vice versa), the cascade breaks. Arc 1 has no extensions, so this is deferred.
+
+**[OXC API stability]** → OXC is pre-1.0 and APIs may change. Pin exact versions in Cargo.toml. The surface area we use (parser, basic traverse) is stable.

+## Why
+
+The Animus type-state machine guarantees a finite, enumerable universe of possible styles — but today every style is computed at runtime via Emotion. At production scale (~1,789 .tsx files at Blockworks), this means shipping the full Emotion runtime, lodash, and parsing CSS-in-JS on every page load. The builder chain's strict ordering (styles → variants → states → groups → props) maps directly to CSS `@layer` declarations, enabling deterministic static CSS extraction with zero specificity conflicts. No other CSS-in-JS framework can prove cascade completeness at compile time.
+
+Arc 1 is the foundation: single-file extraction of static literal chains. A ground-truth census of the codebase shows ~19 chains (65%) are fully extractable without `.groups()`, `.extend()`, or `.asComponent()`. These include the most complex patterns: pseudo-selectors, responsive objects, multi-variant chains, and theme scale lookups.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **New Rust crate** at `packages/extract/` composing OXC (parser/traverse), Lightning CSS (CSS gen), string_wizard (source replacement), and NAPI-RS (JS bridge). Single `extract()` function exported.
+- **New Vite plugin** at `packages/vite-plugin/` (~30 lines). Calls the Rust crate's `extract()` on each file during production builds. Evaluates the theme module at build start and serializes scale maps for Rust.
+- **New runtime shim** at `packages/runtime/` (~500 bytes gzipped). `createComponent(tag, className, config)` — className concatenation, variant/state prop toggling, ref forwarding. Replaces Emotion+lodash for extracted components.
+- **Static CSS output** using shared `@layer` declarations: `base, variants, states, system, custom`. All components inject into the same layer set.
+- **Bail-to-Emotion fallback**: chains containing `.groups()`, `.extend()`, `.asComponent()`, `.props()`, template literals with expressions, or function values are left untouched. The extraction report identifies what extracted and what didn't.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: Rust crate that parses TS/TSX via OXC, walks builder chains backwards from terminals, evaluates static style objects, resolves theme scales, generates @layer CSS, and replaces source with runtime shim imports. Exposed via single NAPI function.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Vite plugin that orchestrates the extraction pipeline — evaluates theme at build start, calls Rust extract on each file in transform hook, emits CSS, returns transformed JS. Production-only (`apply: 'build'`).
+- `extraction-runtime-shim`: Minimal React component factory that applies extracted className + handles variant/state prop toggling at runtime. Replaces Emotion's styled() for extracted components.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+_(none — the builder chain API, extension system, and prop system are unchanged. Extraction is additive.)_
+
+## Impact
+
+- **New packages**: `@animus-ui/extract` (Rust/NAPI), `@animus-ui/vite-plugin`, `@animus-ui/runtime`
+- **New dependencies**: Rust toolchain (cargo, rustc), napi-rs CLI for cross-platform builds
+- **CI**: GitHub Actions matrix build for platform binaries (darwin-arm64, linux-x64-gnu, win32-x64-msvc)
+- **No changes** to `@animus-ui/core`, `@animus-ui/theming`, or `@animus-ui/components`
+- **Dev mode unchanged**: Emotion runtime continues to work as-is. Extraction is production-only.
+- **Existing tests unaffected**: Core/integration tests remain valid. One new canary integration test per arc (source file in → CSS + transformed JS out).

+- **WHEN** a ref is passed to the component via `ref={myRef}`
+- **THEN** `myRef.current` SHALL reference the underlying DOM element (e.g., the `<button>` element)
+
+### Requirement: Prop filtering
+The component SHALL NOT forward variant props, state props, or config-defined props to the underlying DOM element. All other props (including `children`, `className`, `style`, event handlers, ARIA attributes, and data attributes) SHALL be forwarded.
+

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: NAPI function signature
+The Rust crate SHALL export a single NAPI function `extract(source: String, filename: String, theme_json: String, config_json: String) -> ExtractionResult` where `ExtractionResult` contains `css: String`, `code: String`, `source_map: String`, `components: Vec<ComponentDescriptor>`, `extractable: bool`, and `errors: Vec<String>`.
+
+#### Scenario: Successful extraction
+- **WHEN** `extract()` is called with valid TS/TSX source containing an extractable builder chain
+- **THEN** the result SHALL have `extractable: true`, `css` containing @layer-structured CSS, `code` containing the transformed source with shim imports, and `components` describing each extracted component
+
+#### Scenario: Non-extractable chain

+- **THEN** the result SHALL have `extractable: false`, `code` identical to input, empty `css`, and empty `errors`
+
+### Requirement: Chain walking from terminals
+The chain walker SHALL find all `.asElement(tag)` terminal calls in the AST, walk backwards through the method chain to the `animus` root, and collect each stage's argument spans. The walker SHALL recognize the chain pattern: `animus` followed by zero or more of `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()`, `.groups()`, `.props()`, terminated by `.asElement(tag)` or `.asComponent(component)`.
+
+#### Scenario: Walk styles-variant-asElement chain
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).variant({...}).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with `terminal: "asElement"`, `tag: "button"`, stages `styles` and `variants` each referencing their argument AST nodes

+- **THEN** the walker SHALL mark the chain as non-extractable with reason "groups stage not supported in Arc 1"
+
+#### Scenario: Bail on asComponent terminal
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).asComponent(Link)`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL mark the chain as non-extractable with reason "asComponent terminal not supported in Arc 1"
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple chains in one file
+- **WHEN** source contains multiple independent `animus.` chains (e.g., `ButtonContainer` and `ButtonForeground`)
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a separate chain descriptor for each, and each SHALL be independently extractable or bailable
+
+### Requirement: Static style evaluation
+The style evaluator SHALL convert ObjectExpression AST nodes to key-value style maps. It SHALL handle string literals, numeric literals, nested object literals (for pseudo-selectors and responsive values), and array literals. It SHALL bail on function calls, variable references, template literals containing expressions, spread elements, and computed property keys.
+
+#### Scenario: Evaluate simple style object
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ p: 0, display: 'inline-flex', borderRadius: 4 }`

+
+#### Scenario: Evaluate nested pseudo-selector
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ '&:hover': { color: 'primary' } }`
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce `{ "&:hover": { "color": "primary" } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Evaluate responsive object
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ fontSize: { _: 16, xs: 18 } }`
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce `{ "fontSize": { "_": 16, "xs": 18 } }` (responsive resolution happens in CSS generation)
+
+#### Scenario: Bail on template literal with expression
+- **WHEN** the evaluator encounters `` animation: `${flow} 5s linear 1s infinite` ``
+- **THEN** it SHALL mark the value as non-static and the entire chain SHALL bail
+
+#### Scenario: Bail on variable reference
+- **WHEN** the evaluator encounters `color: someVariable`
+- **THEN** it SHALL mark the value as non-static and the entire chain SHALL bail
+
+### Requirement: Theme scale resolution
+The theme resolver SHALL accept a flattened theme JSON map (`{ "scale_name.key": "css_value" }`) and resolve style values against it. For each style property, the resolver SHALL look up the prop config to determine the CSS property name, scale name, and transform identifier.
+
+#### Scenario: Resolve scale lookup
+- **WHEN** prop is `p` with value `8`, config says `{ property: "padding", scale: "space" }`, and theme has `{ "space.8": "0.5rem" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL produce `{ "padding": "0.5rem" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Resolve color mode variable
+- **WHEN** prop is `color` with value `"background"`, config says `{ property: "color", scale: "colors" }`, and theme has `{ "colors.background": "var(--colors-background)" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL produce `{ "color": "var(--colors-background)" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Apply size transform
+- **WHEN** prop is `width` with value `1`, config says `{ property: "width", transform: "size" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL apply the `size` transform: `size(1)` → `percentageOrAbsolute(1)` → `"100%"`, producing `{ "width": "100%" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Apply size transform to zero
+- **WHEN** prop is `inset` with value `0`, config says `{ properties: ["top","right","bottom","left"], transform: "size" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL produce `{ "top": 0, "right": 0, "bottom": 0, "left": 0 }` (zero passes through unchanged)
+
+#### Scenario: Apply borderShorthand transform
+- **WHEN** prop is `border` with value `'none'`, config says `{ property: "border", scale: "borders", transform: "borderShorthand" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL look up scale first; if scale value exists use it, otherwise pass string through as-is producing `{ "border": "none" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Apply gridItemRatio transform
+- **WHEN** prop is `cols` with value `'15rem:1'`, config says `{ property: "gridTemplateColumns", transform: "gridItemRatio" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL produce `{ "gridTemplateColumns": "minmax(0, 15rem) minmax(0, 1fr)" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-property expansion
+- **WHEN** prop is `px` with value `16`, config says `{ property: "padding", properties: ["paddingLeft", "paddingRight"], scale: "space" }`, and theme has `{ "space.16": "1rem" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL produce `{ "paddingLeft": "1rem", "paddingRight": "1rem" }`
+
+#### Scenario: No scale defined
+- **WHEN** prop is `display` with value `"flex"`, config says `{ property: "display" }` (no scale)
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL pass through the value as-is: `{ "display": "flex" }`
+
+### Requirement: CSS generation with @layer
+The CSS generator SHALL produce CSS structured with shared `@layer` declarations. Base styles go in `@layer base`, variant styles in `@layer variants`, state styles in `@layer states`. Responsive values SHALL be emitted as `@media` queries within their respective layers. Pseudo-selectors SHALL be emitted as nested selectors within class rules.
+
+#### Scenario: Generate base styles
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.styles({ padding: '0.5rem', display: 'inline-flex' })`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `@layer base { .animus-Name-hash { padding: 0.5rem; display: inline-flex; } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Generate variant styles
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.variant({ variants: { fill: { color: 'var(--colors-background)' }, stroke: { border: '1px solid' } } })`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `@layer variants { .animus-Name-hash--variant-fill { color: var(--colors-background); } .animus-Name-hash--variant-stroke { border: 1px solid; } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Generate state styles
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.states({ loading: { opacity: 0 }, disabled: { cursor: 'not-allowed' } })`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `@layer states { .animus-Name-hash--loading { opacity: 0; } .animus-Name-hash--disabled { cursor: not-allowed; } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Generate responsive @media
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.styles({ fontSize: { _: '1rem', sm: '1.125rem' } })` and breakpoints has `{ sm: 768 }`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain the default value outside any media query AND `@media (min-width: 768px) { .animus-Name-hash { font-size: 1.125rem; } }` within `@layer base`
+
+#### Scenario: Generate pseudo-selector
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.styles({ '&:hover': { color: 'var(--colors-primary)' } })`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `.animus-Name-hash:hover { color: var(--colors-primary); }` within `@layer base`
+
+#### Scenario: Generate variant with pseudo-selector
+- **WHEN** a variant option contains `{ '&:before': { content: '""', position: 'absolute' } }`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `.animus-Name-hash--variant-stroke::before { content: ""; position: absolute; }` within `@layer variants`
+
+#### Scenario: @layer declaration order
+- **WHEN** any extraction produces CSS
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL begin with `@layer base, variants, states, system, custom;` to establish layer precedence
+
+### Requirement: Source replacement
+The source replacer SHALL replace the entire chain expression (from `animus.` root to terminal) with a `createComponent()` call importing from `@animus-ui/runtime`, and add a CSS import for the extracted stylesheet.
+
+#### Scenario: Replace asElement chain
+- **WHEN** source has `export const Button = animus.styles({...}).variant({...}).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the transformed source SHALL contain an import of `createComponent` from `@animus-ui/runtime`, an import of the CSS file, and `export const Button = createComponent('button', 'animus-Button-hash', { variants: { variant: { options: ['fill', 'stroke'], default: undefined } } })`
+
+#### Scenario: Preserve non-chain code
+- **WHEN** source has code before and after the chain expression (imports, other exports, JSX components)
+- **THEN** the transformed source SHALL preserve all non-chain code exactly, only replacing the chain expression itself
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple chains in one file
+- **WHEN** source has `const A = animus.styles({...}).asElement('div')` and `const B = animus.styles({...}).asElement('span')`
+- **THEN** both SHALL be replaced with separate `createComponent()` calls, and the CSS import SHALL include styles for both components
+
+### Requirement: Deterministic class names
+Class names SHALL follow the pattern `animus-{binding}-{hash}` where `binding` is the JavaScript variable name the chain is assigned to, and `hash` is an 8-character content hash of the normalized chain descriptor.
+
+#### Scenario: Stable across builds
+- **WHEN** the same source file is extracted in two separate builds without changes
+- **THEN** the generated class names SHALL be identical
+
+#### Scenario: Unique per chain
+- **WHEN** two different chains exist in the same file with different styles
+- **THEN** each SHALL receive a distinct class name
+
+#### Scenario: Binding name in class
+- **WHEN** source has `const ButtonContainer = animus.styles({...}).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the class name SHALL start with `animus-ButtonContainer-`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Plugin factory function
+The Vite plugin SHALL be exported as `animusExtract(options?) -> Plugin` from `@animus-ui/vite-plugin`. The options object MAY include `theme` (path to theme module, default auto-detected), `config` (path to prop config module, default `@animus-ui/core/config`), and `include`/`exclude` globs for file filtering.
+
+#### Scenario: Default configuration
+- **WHEN** `animusExtract()` is called with no options
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL auto-detect the theme module by searching for `theme.ts` or `theme.js` in the project root and src directory
+
+#### Scenario: Custom theme path
+- **WHEN** `animusExtract({ theme: './src/design/theme.ts' })` is called
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL use the specified path for theme evaluation
+
+### Requirement: Production-only activation
+The plugin SHALL only perform extraction during production builds. In development mode, the plugin SHALL be a no-op, allowing Emotion runtime to function as-is.
+
+#### Scenario: Production build
+- **WHEN** Vite runs in production mode (`vite build`)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL activate its transform hook and perform extraction
+
+#### Scenario: Development server
+- **WHEN** Vite runs in development mode (`vite dev`)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL not transform any files, leaving Emotion runtime intact
+
+### Requirement: Theme evaluation at build start
+The plugin SHALL evaluate the theme module at `buildStart` using Vite's `ssrLoadModule()`. It SHALL flatten all theme scales into a JSON map of `{ "scale_name.key": "css_value" }` format and hold it in memory for passing to the Rust `extract()` function.
+
+#### Scenario: Theme with computed scales
+- **WHEN** the theme uses `.addScale('shadows', ({ colors }) => ({...}))` with function-based scale definitions
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL evaluate the full theme build chain, resolving all function-based scales to their final values, and include them in the flattened JSON map
+
+#### Scenario: Theme with color modes
+- **WHEN** the theme uses `.addColorModes()` generating CSS custom properties
+- **THEN** the flattened map SHALL contain CSS variable references (e.g., `"colors.background": "var(--colors-background)"`) rather than raw color values
+
+### Requirement: Prop config serialization
+The plugin SHALL serialize the prop configuration from `@animus-ui/core/config` into a JSON map at build start. Each prop entry SHALL include `property`, `properties` (if multi-property), `scale` (if theme-linked), and `transform` (as a string identifier: `"size"`, `"borderShorthand"`, `"gridItemRatio"`, or `null`).
+
+#### Scenario: Serialize prop with scale and transform
+- **WHEN** config has `borderRadius: { property: 'borderRadius', scale: 'radii', transform: size }`
+- **THEN** the serialized entry SHALL be `{ "property": "borderRadius", "scale": "radii", "transform": "size" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Serialize multi-property prop
+- **WHEN** config has `px: { property: 'padding', properties: ['paddingLeft', 'paddingRight'], scale: 'space' }`
+- **THEN** the serialized entry SHALL include both `property` and `properties` array
+
+### Requirement: Transform hook
+The plugin SHALL implement the Vite `transform` hook. For each `.ts`, `.tsx`, `.js`, `.jsx` file matching the include/exclude filters, it SHALL call the Rust `extract()` function with the source code, filename, serialized theme JSON, and serialized config JSON.
+
+#### Scenario: Extractable file
+- **WHEN** a file contains extractable chains and `extract()` returns `extractable: true`
+- **THEN** the transform hook SHALL return the transformed code as the new source and emit the extracted CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Non-extractable file
+- **WHEN** a file contains no chains or only non-extractable chains and `extract()` returns `extractable: false`
+- **THEN** the transform hook SHALL return `null` (no transformation), leaving the original source unchanged
+
+#### Scenario: Partial extraction
+- **WHEN** a file contains multiple chains and some are extractable while others are not
+- **THEN** extractable chains SHALL be transformed and non-extractable chains SHALL be left as-is in the same file. CSS SHALL only be emitted for extracted chains.
+
+### Requirement: CSS emission
+The plugin SHALL emit extracted CSS using Vite's virtual module system. Each source file with extracted styles SHALL produce a corresponding virtual CSS module that is imported by the transformed source.
+
+#### Scenario: Virtual CSS module
+- **WHEN** `src/Button.tsx` has extracted styles
+- **THEN** the transformed source SHALL import from a virtual module (e.g., `virtual:animus/src/Button.css`) and the plugin SHALL resolve and serve that module with the extracted CSS content
+
+#### Scenario: @layer declaration
+- **WHEN** any file produces extracted CSS
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL ensure the `@layer base, variants, states, system, custom;` declaration appears exactly once in the final CSS bundle

+## 1. Rust Crate Scaffolding
+
+- [x] 1.1 Initialize Cargo workspace at `packages/extract/` with `Cargo.toml` (oxc 0.121.0, lightningcss 1.0.0-alpha.71, string_wizard 0.0.27, napi 3.x, napi-derive 3.x, serde, serde_json)
+- [x] 1.2 Set up napi-rs build scaffolding: `build.rs`, `.cargo/config.toml`, `package.json` with napi build scripts and platform-specific optional deps
+- [x] 1.3 Create `lib.rs` with NAPI `extract()` function stub that returns an empty `ExtractionResult` struct. Verify it compiles and is callable from JS.
+
+## 2. Chain Walker
+
+- [x] 2.1 Implement `chain_walker.rs`: parse source via `oxc_parser`, traverse AST to find `.asElement(tag)` terminal calls, walk CallExpression chain backwards to `animus` identifier
+- [x] 2.2 Collect chain stages: for each method call in the chain, record the method name and argument AST node span. Produce `ChainDescriptor` struct with terminal type, tag, and stage entries.
+- [x] 2.3 Handle bail detection: mark chains as non-extractable when `.groups()`, `.props()`, `.extend()`, or `.asComponent()` are found. Record reason string.
+- [x] 2.4 Handle multiple chains per file: walk all terminals independently, produce `Vec<ChainDescriptor>`
+- [x] 2.5 Extract the JS binding name (variable name the chain is assigned to) from the parent VariableDeclarator
+
+## 3. Style Evaluator
+
+- [x] 3.1 Implement `style_evaluator.rs`: convert ObjectExpression AST nodes to `serde_json::Value`. Handle StringLiteral, NumericLiteral, nested ObjectExpression, ArrayExpression.
+- [x] 3.2 Implement bail detection for non-static expressions: TemplateLiteral with expressions, Identifier references, CallExpression, SpreadElement, ComputedMemberExpression. Return `Err` with reason.
+- [x] 3.3 Parse variant stage arguments: extract `prop` (default `"variant"`), `defaultVariant`, `base`, and `variants` map from the options object.
+- [x] 3.4 Parse states stage arguments: extract state name → style object map.
+
+## 4. Theme Resolver
+
+- [x] 4.1 Implement `theme_resolver.rs`: accept flattened theme JSON (`HashMap<String, String>` keyed by `"scale.key"`) and prop config JSON. For each style prop, look up config to get CSS property, scale, and transform identifier.
+- [x] 4.2 Implement scale lookup: given a prop value and scale name, look up `"scale_name.value"` in the theme map. If found, use the theme value. If not, pass through raw value.
+- [x] 4.3 Implement multi-property expansion: when config has `properties` array, emit the resolved value for each property in the array.
+- [x] 4.4 Separate pseudo-selectors from prop keys: keys starting with `&` or `:` are CSS selectors, not prop names. Route them to nested rule generation.
+- [x] 4.5 Separate responsive objects from scalar values: values that are objects with `_`, `xs`, `sm`, `md`, `lg`, `xl` keys are responsive breakpoint maps. Route them to @media generation.
+
+## 5. Transforms (Port from JS)
+
+- [x] 5.1 Implement `transforms.rs`: port `size` / `percentageOrAbsolute` (0→0, 0<n≤1→%, n>1→px, string passthrough with unit detection, calc passthrough)
+- [x] 5.2 Port `borderShorthand`: `numberToTemplate(val, width => "${width}px solid currentColor")`
+- [x] 5.3 Port `gridItemRatio` / `parseGridRatio` / `gridItem`: parse `"15rem:1"` ratio strings into `minmax(0, ...)` repeat patterns
+- [x] 5.4 Wire transforms to resolver via string identifiers: `"size"`, `"borderShorthand"`, `"gridItemRatio"` in config JSON → Rust function dispatch
+
+## 6. CSS Generator
+
+- [x] 6.1 Implement `css_generator.rs`: take resolved style maps and produce @layer-structured CSS strings. Generate `@layer base, variants, states, system, custom;` declaration.
+- [x] 6.2 Generate base layer CSS: `.animus-{binding}-{hash} { prop: value; }` inside `@layer base {}`
+- [x] 6.3 Generate variant layer CSS: `.animus-{binding}-{hash}--{prop}-{option} { ... }` inside `@layer variants {}`. Handle variant `base` styles as shared styles across all options of that variant.
+- [x] 6.4 Generate state layer CSS: `.animus-{binding}-{hash}--{state} { ... }` inside `@layer states {}`
+- [x] 6.5 Generate pseudo-selector rules: `&:hover` → `.animus-Name-hash:hover`, `&:before` → `.animus-Name-hash::before`, `&:nth-child(even)` → `.animus-Name-hash:nth-child(even)`. Handle within each layer.
+- [x] 6.6 Generate responsive @media queries: for responsive objects, emit default value unscoped and breakpoint values wrapped in `@media (min-width: Npx)`. Place within the appropriate layer.
+- [x] 6.7 Implement deterministic class name hashing: `animus-{binding}-{8-char content hash of normalized chain descriptor}`
+
+## 7. Source Replacer
+
+- [x] 7.1 Implement `transform_emitter.rs` using string_wizard: replace chain expression spans with `createComponent(tag, className, config)` calls
+- [x] 7.2 Generate the runtime config object for createComponent: `{ variants: { propName: { options: [...], default: ... } }, states: [...] }`
+- [x] 7.3 Add import statements to transformed source: `import { createComponent } from '@animus-ui/runtime'` and CSS virtual module import
+- [x] 7.4 Handle multiple replacements per file: apply all span replacements via string_wizard in a single pass (spans must not overlap)
+
+## 8. Wire NAPI Bridge
+
+- [x] 8.1 Wire all stages together in `lib.rs`: parse → walk → evaluate → resolve → generate → replace. Return `ExtractionResult` with css, code, components, extractable, errors.
+- [x] 8.2 Handle partial extraction: when a file has both extractable and non-extractable chains, extract what's possible and leave the rest.
+
+## 9. Vite Plugin
+
+- [x] 9.1 Create `packages/vite-plugin/` package with `src/index.ts` exporting `animusExtract(options?) -> Plugin`
+- [x] 9.2 Implement `theme-evaluator.ts`: at `buildStart`, use `ssrLoadModule()` to import and evaluate the theme module, flatten all scales to `{ "scale.key": "value" }` JSON map
+- [x] 9.3 Implement prop config serialization: import config from `@animus-ui/core`, map transform functions to string identifiers, serialize to JSON
+- [x] 9.4 Implement `transform` hook: for matching files, call Rust `extract()` with source, filename, theme JSON, config JSON. Return transformed code or null.
+- [x] 9.5 Implement CSS virtual module system: `resolveId` for `virtual:animus/*` imports, `load` hook to serve extracted CSS content, ensure @layer declaration appears once
+
+## 10. Runtime Shim
+
+- [x] 10.1 Create `packages/runtime/` package with `src/index.ts` exporting `createComponent(tag, className, config)`
+- [x] 10.2 Implement className assembly: base class + variant modifier classes + active state classes. Merge with external `className` prop.

+## Context
+
+Arc 1 built a Rust NAPI extraction pipeline that walks Animus builder chains, evaluates static styles/variants/states, and emits `@layer`-structured CSS with `createComponent()` source replacements. Chains containing `.groups()`, `.props()`, or `.extend()` bail to Emotion runtime.
+
+The Animus prop system defines 13 named groups (space, color, layout, typography, flex, grid, borders, shadows, background, positioning, transitions, mode, vars) in `packages/core/src/config.ts`. Each group is a set of prop→CSS property mappings with optional theme scale references and value transforms. Components opt into groups via `.groups({ space: true, layout: true, ... })`, which determines which system props are available on their JSX API.
+
+System props are used at JSX callsites with static literals and responsive objects: `<Box p={8} mt={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }} />`. Survey of all callsites in the codebase found zero dynamic expressions — all values are compile-time constants.
+
+The existing `@layer` order is `base, variants, states, system, custom`. The `system` layer is currently unused. It exists precisely for this arc.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Extract `.groups()` and `.props()` stages from builder chains (stop bailing)
+- Scan JSX callsites to collect static system prop values
+- Emit shared utility CSS in `@layer system` for each unique (prop, value) pair
+- Update runtime shim to map system props to utility class names
+- Maintain cascade correctness: system props override states/variants/base per `@layer` ordering
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Dynamic system prop extraction (computed values, spread props, identifier references) — these are left unhandled, system props with dynamic values are simply not extracted
+- Cross-file `.extend()` support (Arc 3)
+- `.asComponent()` wrapping (Arc 3)
+- Dev-mode / HMR extraction — production build only (same as Arc 1)
+- Utility CSS deduplication across files at the Vite level — deduplication happens naturally because identical (prop, value) pairs produce identical class names; duplicate CSS rules are harmless and can be optimized later via Lightning CSS
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Shared utility classes, not per-component classes
+
+System prop CSS is shared across all components. `p={8}` on Box and `p={8}` on Text produce the same class name and CSS rule. The prop config is global (from `config.ts`), so the mapping is component-independent.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Per-component utility classes (`.Box-p-8`, `.Text-p-8`). Rejected because it defeats the purpose of utilities — they belong to the design system, not to components. The component's `.groups()` config only determines which utilities are *available* on its type API; the CSS is the same.
+
+### 2. Utility class naming: `animus-{prop}-{hash}`
+
+Class name format: `animus-{propName}-{contentHash}` where content hash is derived from the resolved CSS value (after scale lookup + transform). This means `p={8}` and `p="0.5rem"` produce the same class if they resolve to the same CSS.
+
+For responsive values, the hash covers the full responsive declaration including breakpoints: `animus-p-{hash({padding:0.5rem, @media(480px):{padding:1rem}})}`.
+
+### 3. Two-phase extraction: chain walk then JSX scan
+
+The pipeline executes in two phases per file:
+
+```
+Phase 1: Chain Walking (existing, modified)
+  - Find .asElement()/.asComponent() terminals
+  - Walk chain backwards, parse all stages including .groups() and .props()
+  - Record active group prop names per component binding
+  - Extract base/variants/states CSS into @layer base/variants/states (unchanged from Arc 1)
+
+Phase 2: JSX Scanning (new)
+  - Walk JSX elements in the file
+  - Match element tag to a component binding from Phase 1 that has active groups
+  - For each JSX attribute matching an active group prop:
+    - Evaluate static value (literal number/string, responsive object)
+    - Skip non-static values (identifiers, calls, spreads)
+  - Collect unique (prop, value) pairs
+  - Resolve through theme scales + transforms
+  - Emit utility CSS in @layer system
+  - Record prop→className mapping for runtime
+```
+
+**Alternative considered:** Single-pass extraction during chain walking. Rejected because the chain defines the SCHEMA (which props exist) while JSX defines the DATA (which values are used). These are separate AST locations requiring separate walks.
+
+### 4. Runtime shim receives a system prop class map
+
+The `createComponent()` call gains a `systemProps` parameter: a map from prop name to a map of values→class names.
+
+```js
+createComponent('div', 'animus-Box-abc123', {
+  variants: { ... },
+  states: { ... },
+  systemProps: {
+    p: { "8": "animus-p-x7f2a1", "16": "animus-p-b3c4d5" },
+    mt: { "8|sm:16": "animus-mt-e6f7g8" }
+  },
+  systemPropNames: ["p", "px", "py", "pt", "pr", "pb", "pl", "m", "mx", ...]
+})
+```
+
+At runtime, the shim looks up each system prop's value in the map. If found → apply the class. If not found (dynamic value not extracted) → the prop is ignored (no Emotion fallback in extracted mode). `systemPropNames` is used for DOM prop filtering.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Emit the class map as a separate JSON file or CSS custom property. Rejected — the map is small (only USED values, not all possible values) and collocating it with the component keeps the dependency graph simple.
+
+### 5. `.props()` handled identically to `.groups()` — with known inline scale limitation
+
+Custom props from `.props()` are structurally identical to group props — they have `property`, `scale`, and `transform`. The JSX scanner handles them the same way: find the value, resolve through the scale, apply transform, emit utility class in `@layer custom` (not `@layer system`).
+
+**Known limitation:** Custom props with **inline scales** (e.g., `{ scale: { xs: 28, sm: 32, md: 64 } }`) are NOT supported in Arc 2. The Rust `PropConfig.scale` field is `Option<String>` (theme scale name only). Props with inline object/array scales will fail deserialization and the chain will fall through to Emotion. This affects components like Logo that use `.props({ logoSize: { property: 'fontSize', scale: { xs: 28, sm: 32, md: 64 } } })`. Custom props with string theme scales (e.g., `{ scale: 'space' }`) work correctly. Inline scale support requires a future enhancement to `PropConfig` using an untagged serde enum.
+
+This preserves the cascade: `@layer custom` > `@layer system` > `@layer states`, matching the builder chain order `.states() → .groups() → .props()`.
+
+### 6. Responsive utility classes use full @media blocks
+
+A responsive value like `mt={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }}` produces a single utility class with embedded @media queries, not separate per-breakpoint classes:
+
+```css
+@layer system {
+  .animus-mt-a1b2c3 {
+    margin-top: 0.5rem;
+  }
+  @media (min-width: 768px) {
+    .animus-mt-a1b2c3 {
+      margin-top: 1rem;
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Alternative considered:** Separate breakpoint classes (Tailwind's `sm:mt-4` approach). Rejected because it requires the runtime to assemble multiple classes and understand breakpoint prefixes. A single class per responsive value is simpler and maps directly to how Animus already handles responsive values.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Utility CSS duplication across files** → Identical utility rules may appear in multiple files' CSS output. Mitigation: same class name = same rule, so duplicates are idempotent. Vite can concatenate and deduplicate at bundle time. Lightning CSS optimization (future arc) handles this cleanly.
+
+**[Risk] Unextracted system props silently produce no styling** → If a system prop has a dynamic value that can't be extracted, the utility class won't exist and the runtime shim can't apply it. Mitigation: the Rust pipeline should emit a warning listing unextracted system props per component. In dev mode (no extraction), Emotion still handles everything.
+
+**[Risk] Responsive value hash collisions** → Two different responsive value objects could theoretically hash to the same 8-char string. Mitigation: FNV-1a with 8 hex chars gives 2^32 space — collision probability is negligible for realistic codebases. Content-addressed naming ensures correctness (same content = same class is always safe).
+
+**[Risk] JSX scanner performance on large files** → Scanning every JSX element adds a second AST walk. Mitigation: OXC parsing is fast (~1ms per file). The JSX walk is shallow — we only inspect attribute values of elements matching known bindings, skipping everything else.
+
+**[Trade-off] No Emotion fallback for dynamic system props in extracted mode** → Unlike Arc 1 where chains either fully extract or fully bail, Arc 2 partially extracts: the chain's base/variants/states extract, but dynamic system prop values at specific callsites are simply dropped. This is acceptable because: (a) no dynamic system prop usage was found in the codebase, and (b) the type system constrains values to scale-valid options, making static usage the natural pattern.

+## Why
+
+Arc 1 built the extraction pipeline for static builder chain stages (`.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()`) but bails on any chain containing `.groups()` or `.props()`. This means the most common layout primitives — Box, FlexBox, GridBox, Text, Anchor, Image — all fall through to Emotion at runtime. These components account for the majority of JSX usage across the doc site and UI package. Until the pipeline can extract system props, extraction coverage remains limited to specialized components without group-based APIs.
+
+System props from `.groups()` are the utility layer of the Finite Style Machine. Like Tailwind's utilities, they take precedence over component-level styles (base, variants, states) via `@layer system`. Unlike Tailwind, they derive from the type system's prop registry — not string scanning — making the universe of valid values provably finite and bounded by theme scales.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Chain walker stops bailing on `.groups()` and `.props()`**: These stages are parsed as first-class chain members, recording active group names and custom prop configs on the ChainDescriptor.
+- **JSX scanner (new Rust module)**: Walks JSX elements in each file, matches element tags to extracted component bindings, collects static system prop values (literals + responsive objects). Skips dynamic expressions.
+- **Utility CSS generation in `@layer system`**: Each unique (prop, value) pair found across JSX callsites emits a single utility class rule. Shared across components — `p={8}` produces the same class whether on Box or Text.
+- **Runtime shim gains system prop → class name mapping**: `createComponent` receives a lookup table mapping system prop values to utility class names. No style computation at runtime — just className concatenation.
+- **`.props()` extraction**: Custom props with inline scales (e.g., Logo's `logoSize`) are handled identically to group props but with their scale defined in the chain rather than the theme.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `jsx-system-prop-scanner`: JSX AST scanning to collect static system prop values from callsites, matching against extracted component bindings and their active group configurations.
+- `utility-css-generation`: Deterministic utility class emission in `@layer system` from (prop, value) pairs, with theme scale resolution, transforms, and responsive @media support.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: Chain walker stops bailing on `.groups()` and `.props()`. ChainDescriptor gains group config and custom prop fields. Pipeline orchestrates JSX scanning after chain walking.
+- `extraction-runtime-shim`: `createComponent` accepts system prop class map, applies utility classes from prop values, filters system props from DOM forwarding.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Passes group registry metadata alongside theme and config. Utility CSS deduplication across files.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/extract/src/`**: chain_walker.rs (remove bail, add group/prop parsing), new jsx_scanner.rs module, css_generator.rs (utility class emission in @layer system), transform_emitter.rs (emit system prop class map), lib.rs (pipeline orchestration)
+- **`packages/runtime/src/index.ts`**: System prop → className lookup, expanded prop filtering
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/`**: Cross-file utility CSS deduplication, group registry serialization

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: createComponent factory
+The runtime shim SHALL export `createComponent(tag, className, config)` which returns a `React.forwardRef` component. The `tag` is an HTML element string. The `className` is the base extracted class name. The `config` describes variant props, state props, and system prop class mappings for className assembly.
+
+#### Scenario: Render base component
+- **WHEN** `createComponent('button', 'animus-Btn-x7f2', {})` creates a component and it is rendered with no props
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL be `<button class="animus-Btn-x7f2" />`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with variant prop
+- **WHEN** config is `{ variants: { variant: { options: ['fill', 'stroke'], default: 'fill' } } }` and component is rendered with `variant="stroke"`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-Btn-x7f2--variant-stroke"`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with state prop
+- **WHEN** config is `{ states: ['loading', 'disabled'] }` and component is rendered with `loading={true}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-Btn-x7f2--loading"`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with multiple active states
+- **WHEN** component is rendered with `loading={true} disabled={true}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-Btn-x7f2--loading animus-Btn-x7f2--disabled"`
+
+#### Scenario: Default variant applied
+- **WHEN** config has `{ variants: { variant: { options: ['fill', 'stroke'], default: 'fill' } } }` and component is rendered with no `variant` prop
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-Btn-x7f2--variant-fill"`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with system prop (extracted value)
+- **WHEN** config has `{ systemProps: { p: { "8": "animus-u-a1b2c3" } }, systemPropNames: ["p", "m", "mt"] }` and component is rendered with `p={8}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-u-a1b2c3"`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with system prop (non-extracted value)
+- **WHEN** config has `{ systemProps: { p: { "8": "animus-u-a1b2c3" } }, systemPropNames: ["p"] }` and component is rendered with `p={24}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2"` only — the value `24` has no matching utility class and SHALL be silently ignored
+
+#### Scenario: Render with responsive system prop
+- **WHEN** config has `{ systemProps: { mt: { "8|sm:16": "animus-u-d4e5f6" } }, systemPropNames: ["mt"] }` and component is rendered with `mt={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-u-d4e5f6"`
+
+#### Scenario: System prop overrides base style via layer
+- **WHEN** component has base style `padding: 0` in `@layer base` and is rendered with `p={8}` producing utility class in `@layer system`
+- **THEN** the utility class SHALL override the base padding because `@layer system` has higher precedence than `@layer base`
+
+### Requirement: Prop filtering
+The component SHALL NOT forward variant props, state props, system prop names, or custom prop names to the underlying DOM element. All other props (including `children`, `className`, `style`, event handlers, ARIA attributes, and data attributes) SHALL be forwarded.
+
+#### Scenario: Filter variant prop
+- **WHEN** component is rendered with `variant="fill" onClick={handler}`
+- **THEN** the DOM element SHALL have `onClick` but SHALL NOT have a `variant` attribute
+
+#### Scenario: Filter state prop
+- **WHEN** component is rendered with `loading={true} aria-busy="true"`
+- **THEN** the DOM element SHALL have `aria-busy` but SHALL NOT have a `loading` attribute
+
+#### Scenario: Filter system prop
+- **WHEN** component config has `systemPropNames: ["p", "mt", "color"]` and component is rendered with `p={8} mt={16} color="primary" id="box"`
+- **THEN** the DOM element SHALL have `id="box"` but SHALL NOT have `p`, `mt`, or `color` attributes
+
+#### Scenario: Merge external className
+- **WHEN** component is rendered with `className="extra"`
+- **THEN** the DOM element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 extra"` (external className appended)
+
+### Requirement: System prop value serialization for lookup
+The runtime shim SHALL serialize system prop values to string keys for lookup in the class map. Numeric values SHALL be converted to their string representation. Responsive objects SHALL be serialized to a canonical string format that matches the extraction pipeline's key generation.
+
+#### Scenario: Numeric value lookup key
+- **WHEN** component receives `p={8}`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL look up key `"8"` in `systemProps.p`
+
+#### Scenario: String value lookup key
+- **WHEN** component receives `color="primary"`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL look up key `"primary"` in `systemProps.color`
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive value lookup key
+- **WHEN** component receives `mt={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }}`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL serialize to a canonical key (e.g., `"_:8|sm:16"`) and look up in `systemProps.mt`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: JSX element scanning
+The JSX scanner SHALL walk all JSX elements in a source file and match element tags against component bindings that have active groups from chain walking. For each matching element, it SHALL collect JSX attributes whose names match active group prop names.
+
+#### Scenario: Match Box with system props
+- **WHEN** chain walking produces a binding `Box` with active groups `{ space: true, layout: true }` and the file contains `<Box p={8} mt={16} display="flex" />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect `{ p: 8, mt: 16, display: "flex" }` as system prop usages for the `Box` binding
+
+#### Scenario: No match for non-group props
+- **WHEN** chain walking produces a binding `Button` with active groups `{ space: true }` and the file contains `<Button variant="fill" p={8} />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect `{ p: 8 }` only — `variant` is not a group prop and SHALL be ignored by the scanner
+
+#### Scenario: Non-extracted component ignored
+- **WHEN** the file contains `<SomeComponent p={8} />` but `SomeComponent` is not a binding from chain walking (e.g., imported from elsewhere)
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL not collect any system props from that element
+
+#### Scenario: Same component used multiple times
+- **WHEN** the file contains `<Box p={8} />` and `<Box p={16} mt={8} />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect all unique (prop, value) pairs: `{ p: 8 }, { p: 16 }, { mt: 8 }`
+
+### Requirement: Static value evaluation
+The JSX scanner SHALL evaluate JSX attribute values that are static literals (numbers, strings) or static responsive objects (object expressions with only breakpoint keys and literal values). It SHALL skip attributes with dynamic values.
+
+#### Scenario: Numeric literal
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `p={8}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL evaluate the value as the number `8`
+
+#### Scenario: String literal
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `display="flex"` or `display={"flex"}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL evaluate the value as the string `"flex"`
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive object with _ key
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `mt={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL evaluate the value as a responsive object `{ _: 8, sm: 16 }`
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive object without _ key
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `position={{ sm: 'static' }}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL evaluate the value as a responsive object `{ sm: "static" }` (no default value)
+
+#### Scenario: Skip identifier reference
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `p={spacing}` where `spacing` is an identifier
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL skip this attribute — it is not statically evaluable
+
+#### Scenario: Skip spread attribute
+- **WHEN** a JSX element has `{...props}` spread
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL skip the spread — any system props within it are not statically evaluable
+
+#### Scenario: Skip function call
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `p={getSpacing()}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL skip this attribute
+
+#### Scenario: Skip conditional expression
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `display={isOpen ? 'block' : 'none'}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL skip this attribute
+
+### Requirement: Output structure
+The JSX scanner SHALL output a deduplicated list of `(prop_name, value, component_binding)` tuples representing all static system prop usages found in the file. Deduplication SHALL be by (prop_name, value) — the same prop+value pair used across multiple elements or components produces one entry.
+
+#### Scenario: Deduplication across elements
+- **WHEN** the file contains `<Box p={8} />` and `<Text p={8} />`
+- **THEN** the output SHALL contain a single entry for `(p, 8)`, not two
+
+#### Scenario: Different values are distinct
+- **WHEN** the file contains `<Box p={8} />` and `<Box p={16} />`
+- **THEN** the output SHALL contain two entries: `(p, 8)` and `(p, 16)`
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive values are distinct from scalar values
+- **WHEN** the file contains `<Box mt={8} />` and `<Box mt={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }} />`
+- **THEN** the output SHALL contain two entries: `(mt, 8)` and `(mt, { _: 8, sm: 16 })` — these are different values producing different utility classes

+- **THEN** the result SHALL have `extractable: true`, `css` containing utility CSS in `@layer custom`
+
+### Requirement: Chain walking from terminals
+The chain walker SHALL find all `.asElement(tag)` terminal calls in the AST, walk backwards through the method chain to the `animus` root, and collect each stage's argument spans. The walker SHALL recognize the chain pattern: `animus` followed by zero or more of `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()`, `.groups()`, `.props()`, terminated by `.asElement(tag)` or `.asComponent(component)`.
+
+#### Scenario: Walk styles-variant-asElement chain
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).variant({...}).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with `terminal: "asElement"`, `tag: "button"`, stages `styles` and `variants` each referencing their argument AST nodes
+
+#### Scenario: Walk variant-only chain

+
+#### Scenario: Walk chain with groups stage
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).groups({ space: true, layout: true }).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with a `groups` stage containing active group names `["space", "layout"]` and the chain SHALL be marked extractable

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Utility class generation
+For each unique (prop, value) pair collected by the JSX scanner, the utility CSS generator SHALL produce a single CSS class rule containing the resolved CSS declarations. Resolution SHALL use the same theme scale lookup and transform pipeline as base style extraction.
+
+#### Scenario: Simple numeric value with scale
+- **WHEN** prop is `p` with value `8`, config has `{ property: "padding", scale: "space" }`, theme has `{ "space.8": "0.5rem" }`
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL produce a class rule containing `padding: 0.5rem;`
+
+#### Scenario: String value with scale
+- **WHEN** prop is `color` with value `"primary"`, config has `{ property: "color", scale: "colors" }`, theme has `{ "colors.primary": "var(--colors-primary)" }`
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL produce a class rule containing `color: var(--colors-primary);`
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-property prop
+- **WHEN** prop is `px` with value `16`, config has `{ property: "padding", properties: ["paddingLeft", "paddingRight"], scale: "space" }`, theme has `{ "space.16": "1rem" }`
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL produce a class rule containing `padding-left: 1rem; padding-right: 1rem;`
+
+#### Scenario: Value with transform
+- **WHEN** prop is `width` with value `1`, config has `{ property: "width", transform: "size" }`
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL apply the size transform producing a class rule containing `width: 100%;`
+
+#### Scenario: Value with no scale match (passthrough)
+- **WHEN** prop is `display` with value `"flex"`, config has `{ property: "display" }` (no scale)
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL produce a class rule containing `display: flex;`
+
+### Requirement: Responsive utility classes
+For responsive values (objects with breakpoint keys), the generator SHALL produce a single class containing the base declaration and `@media` queries for each breakpoint.
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive with default and one breakpoint
+- **WHEN** prop is `mt` with value `{ _: 8, sm: 16 }`, config has `{ property: "marginTop", scale: "space" }`, theme has `{ "space.8": "0.5rem", "space.16": "1rem" }`, breakpoints has `{ sm: 768 }`
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL produce a class rule containing `margin-top: 0.5rem;` and within `@media (min-width: 768px) { margin-top: 1rem; }`
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive without _ key
+- **WHEN** prop is `position` with value `{ sm: "static" }`, breakpoints has `{ sm: 768 }`
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL produce a class rule containing ONLY `@media (min-width: 768px) { position: static; }` — no base declaration
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive with multiple breakpoints
+- **WHEN** prop is `fontSize` with value `{ _: 16, xs: 18, md: 22 }`, config has `{ property: "fontSize", scale: "fontSizes" }`, theme has `{ "fontSizes.16": "1rem", "fontSizes.18": "1.125rem", "fontSizes.22": "1.375rem" }`, breakpoints has `{ xs: 480, md: 1024 }`
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL produce `font-size: 1rem;` at base, and two @media blocks at 480px and 1024px with their respective values
+
+### Requirement: Utility class naming
+Utility class names SHALL follow the pattern `animus-u-{hash}` where `hash` is an 8-character content hash of the canonical CSS output (after resolution and transform). Two values that resolve to identical CSS SHALL produce the same class name.
+
+#### Scenario: Same resolved value from different inputs
+- **WHEN** prop `p` with value `8` resolves to `padding: 0.5rem` AND prop `p` with string value `"0.5rem"` also resolves to `padding: 0.5rem`
+- **THEN** both SHALL produce the same class name
+
+#### Scenario: Stable across builds
+- **WHEN** the same (prop, value) pair is extracted in two separate builds
+- **THEN** the class name SHALL be identical
+
+#### Scenario: Different values produce different names
+- **WHEN** prop `p` with value `8` and prop `p` with value `16` are both extracted
+- **THEN** they SHALL produce different class names
+
+### Requirement: @layer system placement
+All utility class rules SHALL be emitted within `@layer system { }`. This ensures utility classes take precedence over base, variant, and state styles per the CSS cascade layer specification.
+
+#### Scenario: Layer ordering
+- **WHEN** a component has base styles in `@layer base` and system prop utilities in `@layer system`
+- **THEN** the system prop utilities SHALL override the base styles when both target the same CSS property, regardless of specificity or source order outside the layers
+
+#### Scenario: Utility and variant on same property
+- **WHEN** a component has variant style `color: red` in `@layer variants` and system prop `color="primary"` producing a utility in `@layer system`
+- **THEN** the utility SHALL win — `@layer system` has higher precedence than `@layer variants`
+
+### Requirement: Custom prop (.props()) utility generation
+Custom props defined via `.props()` SHALL be handled identically to group props, except their CSS rules SHALL be emitted in `@layer custom` (not `@layer system`). Custom props MAY have inline scales (object or array) rather than theme string references.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with inline scale
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.props({ logoSize: { property: 'fontSize', scale: { xs: 28, sm: 32, md: 64 } } })` and JSX has `<Logo logoSize="md" />`
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL look up `"md"` in the inline scale `{ xs: 28, sm: 32, md: 64 }`, get `64`, and produce a class rule containing `font-size: 64px;` in `@layer custom`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop layer precedence
+- **WHEN** a component has a system group prop `fontSize={16}` in `@layer system` and a custom prop `logoSize="md"` in `@layer custom` both targeting `font-size`
+- **THEN** the custom prop SHALL win — `@layer custom` has higher precedence than `@layer system`

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: NAPI function signature change
+The plugin SHALL pass a fifth argument `group_registry_json` to the Rust `extract()` function. This JSON maps group names to arrays of prop names, enabling the Rust pipeline to resolve which props belong to which groups.
+
+#### Scenario: Serialize group registry
+- **WHEN** the config has groups `space: ["p", "px", "py", "pt", "m", "mx", ...]` and `layout: ["display", "width", "height", ...]`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL serialize the group registry to JSON: `{ "space": ["p", "px", "py", "pt", "m", "mx", ...], "layout": ["display", "width", "height", ...] }`
+
+#### Scenario: Pass to extract function
+- **WHEN** the transform hook calls the Rust `extract()` function
+- **THEN** it SHALL pass `(source, filename, theme_json, config_json, group_registry_json)` — five arguments
+
+### Requirement: Group registry serialization at build start
+The plugin SHALL serialize the group registry from `@animus-ui/core/config` at `buildStart` alongside the existing theme and prop config serialization. The group registry SHALL map each group name to an array of its constituent prop names.
+
+#### Scenario: Group registry from config
+- **WHEN** config defines groups via `createAnimus().addGroup('space', spaceProps).addGroup('layout', layoutProps).build()`
+- **THEN** the group registry SHALL be `{ "space": ["p", "px", "py", "pt", "pr", "pb", "pl", "m", "mx", "my", "mt", "mr", "mb", "ml"], "layout": ["display", "width", "height", "minWidth", "minHeight", "maxWidth", "maxHeight", "overflow", "overflowX", "overflowY", "verticalAlign"] }` (exact prop names from the group definitions)
+
+### Requirement: Prop config serialization
+The plugin SHALL serialize the prop configuration from `@animus-ui/core/config` into a JSON map at build start. Each prop entry SHALL include `property`, `properties` (if multi-property), `scale` (if theme-linked), and `transform` (as a string identifier: `"size"`, `"borderShorthand"`, `"gridItemRatio"`, or `null`).
+
+#### Scenario: Serialize prop with scale and transform
+- **WHEN** config has `borderRadius: { property: 'borderRadius', scale: 'radii', transform: size }`
+- **THEN** the serialized entry SHALL be `{ "property": "borderRadius", "scale": "radii", "transform": "size" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Serialize multi-property prop
+- **WHEN** config has `px: { property: 'padding', properties: ['paddingLeft', 'paddingRight'], scale: 'space' }`
+- **THEN** the serialized entry SHALL include both `property` and `properties` array

+## 1. Chain Walker: Support .groups() and .props()
+
+- [ ] 1.1 Remove "groups" and "props" from BAIL_METHODS in chain_walker.rs
+- [ ] 1.2 Add `groups: Option<Vec<String>>` and `custom_props: Option<serde_json::Value>` fields to ChainDescriptor
+- [ ] 1.3 Parse .groups() argument — evaluate the ObjectExpression to extract group names (keys where value is `true`)
+- [ ] 1.4 Parse .props() argument — evaluate the ObjectExpression to extract custom prop configurations (property, scale, transform per prop)
+- [ ] 1.5 Add chain walker unit tests: chain with .groups() is extractable, chain with .props() is extractable, chain with both is extractable, .extend() still bails
+- [ ] 1.6 Update NAPI extract() signature to accept group_registry_json as fifth parameter
+
+## 2. JSX Scanner (New Module)
+
+- [ ] 2.1 Create jsx_scanner.rs module with function signature: `scan_jsx(source, filename, allocator, component_bindings) -> Vec<SystemPropUsage>`
+- [ ] 2.2 Walk JSX elements in OXC AST — match element tag (Identifier) against known component bindings from chain walking
+- [ ] 2.3 For matched elements, iterate JSX attributes — filter to only prop names that appear in the component's active groups (resolved via group_registry)
+- [ ] 2.4 Evaluate static JSX attribute values: NumericLiteral, StringLiteral, JSX string value, ObjectExpression (for responsive), skip Identifier/CallExpression/ConditionalExpression/SpreadAttribute
+- [ ] 2.5 Deduplicate collected (prop_name, value) pairs across all JSX elements in the file
+- [ ] 2.6 Add JSX scanner unit tests: static values collected, dynamic values skipped, deduplication works, non-matching elements ignored
+
+## 3. Utility CSS Generation
+
+- [ ] 3.1 Add utility class generation function in css_generator.rs: `generate_utility_css(usages, config, theme, breakpoints) -> (String, HashMap<(String, String), String>)` returning CSS string and (prop,value)→className map
+- [ ] 3.2 Resolve each (prop, value) through existing theme_resolver: config lookup → scale resolution → transform application
+- [ ] 3.3 Generate deterministic class names: `animus-u-{8-char content hash of resolved CSS}`
+- [ ] 3.4 Emit utility rules in `@layer system { }` block
+- [ ] 3.5 Handle responsive utility values — emit @media queries within the utility class rule
+- [ ] 3.6 Add .props() custom prop utility generation in `@layer custom { }` — same resolution but with inline scales
+- [ ] 3.7 Add utility CSS generation unit tests: simple values, responsive values, multi-property props, transform application, custom props in @layer custom
+

+## Context
+
+Arcs 1-2 built a per-file extraction pipeline: `extract(source, filename, theme, config, groupRegistry) -> ExtractionResult`. Each file is processed independently. This works because styles, variants, states, and system props are all defined and used within the same file.
+
+`.extend()` breaks this model. `Button.extend()` in FileB references Button from FileA. The pipeline needs cross-file knowledge to resolve the extension — it needs Button's full chain config (styles, variants, states, groups) to merge with the extension's additions.
+
+The codebase has one real `.extend()` usage: `Link.extend().states({...}).asComponent(NextLink)` in the doc site, extending `Anchor` from the UI package. Extension depth in practice is 1 level, but the spec supports unlimited depth. The import graph is strictly acyclic (core → components → docs).
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Full-codebase static analysis producing a complete UniverseManifest
+- Cross-file `.extend()` resolution via import tracing
+- Merged chain CSS generation with correct cascade ordering (parent before child within each @layer)
+- Vite plugin restructured around manifest-based two-phase architecture
+- Runtime `.extend()` that bridges extracted components back to AnimusExtended
+- Global utility class deduplication across all files
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- HMR incremental manifest updates — full rebuild on change for now (the manifest builds in <100ms for typical codebases)
+- Inline scale support for `.props()` — deferred from Arc 2, still deferred
+- Dead variant elimination — future arc
+- CSS minification/optimization via Lightning CSS — future arc
+- Dev-mode extraction — extraction remains production-only; dev mode uses Emotion runtime
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Two-phase architecture: analyze then transform
+
+The pipeline splits into two NAPI entry points:
+
+```
+Phase 1: analyze_project(file_entries, theme_json, config_json, group_registry_json) -> ManifestJson
+  - file_entries: Vec<{path, source}> — all source files to analyze
+  - Runs chain walker + JSX scanner on each file (existing code)
+  - Resolves imports across files to build provenance graph
+  - Merges extension chains
+  - Generates all CSS (component layers + utility layers)
+  - Returns JSON manifest
+
+Phase 2: transform_file(source, filename, manifest_json) -> TransformedFile
+  - Looks up this file's components in the manifest
+  - Applies source replacements (createComponent calls)
+  - Returns transformed source code (no CSS — CSS comes from manifest)
+```
+
+**Alternative considered:** Keeping `extract()` and adding a pre-pass. Rejected because the per-file `extract()` function would need the manifest as context anyway — cleaner to separate the concerns into two distinct operations.
+
+### 2. UniverseManifest structure
+
+```json
+{
+  "components": {
+    "ComponentId": {
+      "file": "relative/path.tsx",
+      "binding": "ButtonContainer",
+      "className": "animus-ButtonContainer-abc12345",
+      "extendsFrom": null | "ParentComponentId",
+      "chain": {
+        "styles": {...},
+        "variants": [...],
+        "states": {...},
+        "groups": ["space", "layout"],
+        "props": {...}
+      },
+      "css": {
+        "base": "...",
+        "variants": "...",
+        "states": "..."
+      },
+      "systemPropClassMap": { "p": { "8": "animus-u-xxx" } },
+      "systemPropNames": ["p", "m", "mt", ...],
+      "replacement": "createComponent('button', 'animus-ButtonContainer-abc12345', {...})"
+    }
+  },
+  "utilities": {
+    "animus-u-50e5d508": "padding: 0.5rem;"
+  },
+  "css": "/* complete @layer-structured stylesheet */",
+  "provenance": {
+    "Link": ["Anchor"]
+  },
+  "files": {
+    "relative/path.tsx": ["ComponentId1", "ComponentId2"]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Component IDs are `file::binding` to handle same-name components in different files.
+
+### 3. Import resolution strategy
+
+The import resolver parses ES module statements to build a binding map:
+
+```
+File: components/ActionButton.tsx
+  import { ButtonContainer } from '../ui/Button';
+  →  binding "ButtonContainer" resolves to file "ui/Button.tsx"
+
+File: ui/Button.tsx
+  export const ButtonContainer = animus.styles({...}).asElement('button');
+  →  binding "ButtonContainer" is a chain definition in this file
+```
+
+Resolution steps:
+1. Parse all import statements in all files (OXC already parses these)
+2. Resolve import paths relative to each file
+3. Build a global map: `(file, binding) → (source_file, source_binding)`
+4. For extension chains: `Button.extend()` → look up `Button` in the binding map → find the chain in the source file
+
+**Named re-exports through barrel files** (e.g., `export { Box } from './elements/Box'`) are traced transitively.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Using the TypeScript compiler API for import resolution. Rejected — we already have OXC parsing the files, and import path resolution is simple string manipulation for relative paths. Package-name imports (like `@animus-ui/components`) resolve through the Vite plugin's module resolution, which we can leverage at `buildStart` time.
+
+### 4. Extension chain recognition in chain walker
+
+Currently the chain walker only finds chains starting from the `animus` identifier. Extension chains start from a component binding:
+
+```typescript
+// Current (Arc 1-2): animus.styles({...}).asElement('div')
+//   → walker finds `animus` identifier as root
+
+// Extension (Arc 3): Button.extend().styles({...}).asElement('button')
+//   → walker finds `Button` identifier as root
+//   → `Button` is not `animus` — it's a component binding
+//   → the `.extend()` call is the first method in the chain
+```
+
+The chain walker gains a new variant: when the root identifier is NOT `animus` and the first method call is `.extend()`, this is an extension chain. The chain descriptor records `extends_from: Some(binding_name)` and the import resolver maps that binding to its source.
+
+**The `.extend()` call itself takes no arguments** (the parent config is carried via `this`). So there's no argument span to parse — the walker just records the fact of extension.
+
+### 5. Chain merger: immutable merge semantics
+
+When resolving an extension chain, the merger combines parent and child configs:
+
+```
+merged.baseStyles = merge({}, parent.baseStyles, child.baseStyles)
+merged.variants = merge({}, parent.variants, child.variants)
+merged.statesConfig = merge({}, parent.statesConfig, child.statesConfig)
+merged.activeGroups = merge({}, parent.activeGroups, child.activeGroups)
+merged.custom = merge({}, parent.custom, child.custom)
+```
+
+This matches the runtime behavior in `AnimusExtended.ts` where each method does `merge({}, this.field, newValue)`.
+
+For deep extension chains (A → B → C), merging is applied iteratively: merge A+B to get AB, then merge AB+C to get ABC. Topological sort of the provenance graph ensures parents are processed before children.
+
+### 6. CSS emission with topological ordering
+
+Within each @layer, component rules are emitted in topological order of the extension graph: parent rules first, child rules after. This guarantees extension overrides via CSS source order (same specificity, later wins), matching the spec requirement.
+
+```css
+@layer base {
+  /* Parent first */
+  .animus-Anchor-abc { display: inline-block; ... }
+  /* Child after — overrides parent via source order */
+  .animus-Link-def { ... }
+}
+```
+
+For components with no extension relationship, ordering within a layer is stable (deterministic by file path + binding name).
+
+### 7. .asComponent() support for extension chains
+
+The real-world extension pattern does `.asComponent(NextLink)` — wrapping with a React component. The CSS is fully extractable (parent's CSS + state override). Only the component wrapping needs runtime support.
+
+`createComponent` gains a mode where the first argument is a component reference string (resolved at runtime via import) instead of an HTML tag:
+
+```javascript
+// Current: createComponent('button', className, config)
+// Extension: createComponent('__import_NextLink', className, config)
+```
+
+The transformed source includes the NextLink import and passes it to createComponent. The runtime shim handles both string tags and component references.
+
+### 8. Runtime .extend() implementation
+
+`createComponent()` currently throws on `.extend()`. In Arc 3, it returns a real AnimusExtended instance:
+
+```javascript
+Component.extend = () => new AnimusExtended(
+  propRegistry, groupRegistry, parser,
+  baseStyles, variants, statesConfig, activeGroups, custom
+);
+```
+
+This requires the runtime shim to import AnimusExtended from `@animus-ui/core`. The extracted component's config is serialized into the `createComponent` call and deserialized back into AnimusExtended's constructor format.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Making `.extend()` on extracted components return a lightweight proxy instead of a full AnimusExtended. Rejected — the proxy would need to implement the entire AnimusExtended API anyway, and importing the real class ensures behavioral parity.
+
+### 9. Vite plugin restructure
+
+```
+buildStart:
+  1. Evaluate theme (existing ssrLoadModule)
+  2. Serialize config + group registry (existing)
+  3. Walk project files (glob from include/exclude options)
+  4. Read all file sources
+  5. Call analyze_project() → ManifestJson
+  6. Store manifest in memory
+  7. Store manifest CSS for virtual module serving
+
+transform(code, id):
+  1. Check if id is in manifest's file list
+  2. If not, return null (no transformation)
+  3. Call transform_file(code, id, manifest) → TransformedFile
+  4. Return transformed code + CSS import for the global virtual module
+
+load(id):
+  1. If id is the global CSS virtual module, serve manifest CSS
+  2. Single CSS file, single @layer declaration, no duplication
+```
+
+**Single CSS output:** Instead of per-file virtual CSS modules, one global virtual module (`virtual:animus/styles.css`) contains all extracted CSS. This eliminates duplicate @layer declarations and duplicate utility rules.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Full-codebase analysis adds build startup time** → Mitigation: OXC parsing is ~1ms per file. For a 500-file project, analysis takes <1s. The manifest can be cached (hash all input files, skip analysis if hash unchanged).
+
+**[Risk] Import resolution for package-name imports** → Mitigation: For `@animus-ui/components`, the Vite plugin can resolve package paths at buildStart using Vite's `this.resolve()`. Only need to trace imports that lead to animus chain definitions, not all imports.
+
+**[Risk] Extension chains with dynamic parent references** → Mitigation: If `.extend()` is called on a binding that can't be statically traced (e.g., `getComponent().extend()`), the chain bails. Only statically-resolvable bindings are supported.
+
+**[Trade-off] Single CSS file vs per-file CSS modules** → Larger initial CSS file, but no duplication. For production builds, the browser loads one CSS file vs many. Tree-shaking of unused components is deferred (dead variant elimination, future arc).
+
+**[Trade-off] Full rebuild on any file change** → No incremental manifest updates. For production builds this is fine (build runs once). For future HMR support, incremental analysis can be added without changing the manifest structure.

+## Why
+
+Arcs 1 and 2 built a per-file extraction pipeline: the Vite plugin calls `extract()` on each file independently, producing CSS and transformed source per file. This works for components defined and used within the same file, but breaks for `.extend()` — the core extensibility mechanism of Animus — because extension chains cross file boundaries. `Button.extend()` in FileB requires knowing Button's full configuration from FileA.
+
+Beyond .extend(), per-file extraction has structural limitations: utility classes are deduplicated within a file but duplicated across files, and there's no global view of the component registry for tooling, debugging, or HMR intelligence.
+
+The solution is the same one Tailwind uses: perform full static analysis of the entire codebase FIRST, producing a complete universe manifest, then use Vite's per-file transform hook to transact with that artifact. The manifest contains every component definition, every extension relationship, every utility class, and the complete CSS output. The per-file transform just looks things up.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Project-level analyzer (new Rust entry point)**: Walks all source files, runs chain walking + JSX scanning (existing modules), resolves imports to trace `.extend()` provenance, merges extension chains, and produces a `UniverseManifest` — the complete knowledge of the style system.
+- **Import resolver (new Rust module)**: Parses import/export statements to map component bindings across files. Traces `import { Button } from './Button'` to know that `Button.extend()` refers to the chain defined in `Button.tsx`.
+- **Chain merger (new Rust module)**: Given a parent chain's full config and a child's extension stages, produces the merged chain using lodash-equivalent merge semantics. The merged chain gets its own class name but inherits all parent CSS.
+- **Vite plugin restructured**: `buildStart` runs the project analyzer to produce the manifest. `transform` hook uses the manifest for source replacement. CSS is emitted from the manifest, not per-file extraction.
+- **Runtime .extend() support**: `createComponent()` returns a component with a working `.extend()` method that returns an `AnimusExtended` instance seeded with the extracted component's original configuration, enabling runtime extension in dev mode.
+- **Chain walker handles extension chains**: Chains starting from a component binding (e.g., `Button.extend().styles({...}).asElement('div')`) are recognized alongside chains starting from `animus`.
+- **.asComponent() support for extensions**: Extension chains terminating with `.asComponent(SomeComponent)` are extractable — the CSS is from the merged chain, the component wrapping is handled at runtime.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `project-analyzer`: Full-codebase static analysis that walks all source files, resolves cross-file component references, and produces a complete UniverseManifest containing all component definitions, extension provenance, utility classes, and CSS output.
+- `import-resolver`: Parses ES module import/export statements to map component bindings across files, enabling cross-file provenance tracing for `.extend()` chains.
+- `chain-merger`: Merges parent and child chain configurations using immutable merge semantics (lodash merge), producing a unified chain descriptor for extended components.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: Chain walker recognizes extension chains starting from component bindings (not just `animus`). New `analyze_project()` NAPI entry point alongside existing `extract()`. Pipeline orchestration moves from per-file to project-level.
+- `extraction-runtime-shim`: `createComponent()` returns a component with a working `.extend()` method that returns an AnimusExtended instance seeded with the component's original chain configuration.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Plugin restructured around two-phase architecture: `buildStart` runs project analyzer to produce manifest, `transform` hook uses manifest for per-file source replacement, CSS served from manifest rather than per-file virtual modules.
+- `extension-system`: Extension cascade ordering spec requirements are now implemented in the extraction pipeline (parent rules before child rules within same @layer).
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/extract/src/`**: New modules `import_resolver.rs`, `chain_merger.rs`, `project_analyzer.rs`. Modified `lib.rs` (new NAPI entry point), `chain_walker.rs` (extension chain recognition), `css_generator.rs` (topological ordering within layers).
+- **`packages/runtime/src/index.ts`**: `.extend()` method returns real AnimusExtended instance instead of throwing.
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/`**: Major restructure — `index.ts` rewritten around manifest-based architecture, new manifest types.
+- **`packages/extract/tests/`**: New fixtures with cross-file extension chains, manifest snapshot test.
+- **No breaking changes to component authoring**: `animus.styles({...}).asElement()` and `Component.extend().styles({...}).asElement()` continue to work identically. The extraction is invisible to authors.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Merge parent and child chain configurations
+The chain merger SHALL combine a parent chain's evaluated configuration with a child extension's stages using immutable merge semantics. For each configuration field (baseStyles, variants, statesConfig, activeGroups, custom), the merged result SHALL be equivalent to `merge({}, parent.field, child.field)` where `merge` performs deep recursive merging.
+
+#### Scenario: Merge base styles
+- **WHEN** parent has `styles({ padding: 10, display: 'flex' })` and child has `styles({ padding: 16, color: 'red' })`
+- **THEN** merged base styles SHALL be `{ padding: 16, display: 'flex', color: 'red' }` — child values override parent on conflict, parent values preserved otherwise
+
+#### Scenario: Merge variants additively
+- **WHEN** parent has `variant({ prop: 'size', variants: { sm: {...}, lg: {...} } })` and child adds `variant({ prop: 'color', variants: { red: {...}, blue: {...} } })`
+- **THEN** merged variants SHALL contain BOTH the `size` variant (from parent) AND the `color` variant (from child)
+
+#### Scenario: Merge states additively
+- **WHEN** parent has `states({ loading: { opacity: 0 } })` and child has `states({ disabled: { cursor: 'not-allowed' } })`
+- **THEN** merged states SHALL contain BOTH `loading` (from parent) AND `disabled` (from child)
+
+#### Scenario: Override variant option
+- **WHEN** parent has `variant({ variants: { fill: { bg: 'blue' } } })` and child has `variant({ variants: { fill: { bg: 'green' } } })`
+- **THEN** merged variant `fill` SHALL have `bg: 'green'` — child overrides parent within the same variant option
+
+#### Scenario: Merge groups additively
+- **WHEN** parent has `groups({ space: true, layout: true })` and child has `groups({ color: true })`
+- **THEN** merged active groups SHALL be `{ space: true, layout: true, color: true }`
+
+### Requirement: Topological ordering for multi-level chains
+The chain merger SHALL process extension chains in topological order (parents before children). For a chain A → B → C, the merger SHALL first merge A+B to produce AB, then merge AB+C to produce ABC.
+
+#### Scenario: Three-level extension chain
+- **WHEN** A has `styles({ p: 8 })`, B extends A with `styles({ m: 4 })`, C extends B with `styles({ p: 16 })`
+- **THEN** the merged chain for C SHALL have `{ p: 16, m: 4 }` — C's padding overrides A's, B's margin preserved
+
+#### Scenario: Cycle detection
+- **WHEN** the provenance graph contains a cycle (A extends B, B extends A)
+- **THEN** the merger SHALL report an error and mark both components as non-extractable
+
+### Requirement: Merged component gets own class name
+Each component in an extension chain SHALL receive its own unique class name, even though it inherits CSS from its parent. The class name is based on the component's own binding name and a content hash of its merged chain.
+
+#### Scenario: Extended component class name
+- **WHEN** parent `Button` has class `animus-Button-abc12345` and child `PrimaryButton` extends it
+- **THEN** PrimaryButton SHALL have its own class `animus-PrimaryButton-def67890` (different hash because merged chain is different)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Extension chains are extractable
+Extension chains (e.g., `Button.extend().styles({...}).asElement('div')`) SHALL be extractable by the static analysis pipeline when all stages are statically evaluable. The `.extend()` call itself is NOT a bail condition — it is recognized as the chain root pattern for extension.
+
+#### Scenario: Simple extension extracts
+- **WHEN** `Button.extend().styles({ borderRadius: 8 }).asElement('button')` is analyzed and Button's definition is found in the project
+- **THEN** the extension chain SHALL be extracted, producing merged CSS (Button's styles + borderRadius override) with a unique class name
+
+#### Scenario: Extension with non-static stage bails
+- **WHEN** `Button.extend().styles({ color: dynamicVar }).asElement('button')` is analyzed
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL bail with a static evaluation error, same as primary chains
+
+#### Scenario: Extension with unresolvable parent bails
+- **WHEN** `UnknownComponent.extend().styles({...}).asElement('div')` is analyzed and `UnknownComponent` cannot be traced to any animus chain definition in the project
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL bail with reason "could not resolve parent component"
+
+### Requirement: Extension with .asComponent() is extractable
+Extension chains terminating with `.asComponent(SomeComponent)` SHALL be extractable. The CSS comes from the merged chain (parent + extension overrides). The component reference (`SomeComponent`) is preserved as a runtime import in the transformed source.
+
+#### Scenario: asComponent extension extracts CSS
+- **WHEN** `Anchor.extend().states({ active: {} }).asComponent(NextLink)` is analyzed
+- **THEN** the CSS SHALL contain the merged styles (Anchor's base + variant + state CSS, plus the state override) in the correct @layer blocks with the extension's own class name
+
+#### Scenario: asComponent reference preserved in transform
+- **WHEN** the above extension is transformed
+- **THEN** the transformed source SHALL contain `createComponent(NextLink, 'animus-Link-hash', config)` where `NextLink` remains a runtime import reference, NOT a string literal
+
+#### Scenario: asComponent on primary chain still bails
+- **WHEN** `animus.styles({...}).asComponent(Link)` is analyzed (PRIMARY chain, not extension)
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL still bail — `.asComponent()` on primary chains requires the full Emotion runtime for component wrapping. Only extension chains with a resolvable parent support `.asComponent()` extraction.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: createComponent factory
+The runtime shim SHALL export `createComponent(element, className, config)` which returns a `React.forwardRef` component. The `element` parameter accepts EITHER an HTML tag string (e.g., `'button'`) OR a React component reference (for `.asComponent()` extensions). The `className` is the base extracted class name. The `config` describes variant props, state props, and system prop class mappings.
+
+#### Scenario: Render with HTML tag
+- **WHEN** `createComponent('button', 'animus-Btn-x7f2', {})` creates a component and it is rendered
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL be `<button class="animus-Btn-x7f2" />`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with component reference
+- **WHEN** `createComponent(NextLink, 'animus-Link-abc', {})` creates a component with a React component as the element
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL be `<NextLink className="animus-Link-abc" />` — the component reference is used as the element type in `React.createElement`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with variant prop
+- **WHEN** config has variants and component is rendered with `variant="stroke"`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have the variant modifier class appended
+
+#### Scenario: Render with system prop
+- **WHEN** config has `systemProps` and component is rendered with `p={8}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have the utility class appended
+
+### Requirement: Extend method directs to source-code extension
+The component returned by `createComponent` SHALL have an `.extend()` method that throws an error directing the developer to use the builder API in source code. Extracted components cannot be runtime-extended because their configuration contains resolved CSS values, not the original Prop/Parser objects that AnimusExtended requires. Extensions MUST be authored in source code where the extraction pipeline can trace them at build time.
+
+#### Scenario: Extend an extracted component throws
+- **WHEN** `Button.extend()` is called on an extracted component at runtime
+- **THEN** it SHALL throw an Error with a message explaining that extensions must be authored in source code using the builder API, so the extraction pipeline can resolve them at build time
+
+#### Scenario: Source-code extension is extractable
+- **WHEN** a developer writes `import { Button } from './Button'; const Primary = Button.extend().styles({...}).asElement('button')` in source code
+- **THEN** the extraction pipeline SHALL resolve the extension at build time via the manifest (Arc 3), producing correct merged CSS without any runtime extension
+
+### Requirement: Prop filtering includes all prop types
+The component SHALL NOT forward variant props, state props, system prop names, or custom prop names to the underlying DOM element. When the `element` is a React component (not an HTML tag), ALL props except filtered ones SHALL be forwarded (no `isPropValid` check needed for component elements).
+
+#### Scenario: Filter props with HTML tag element
+- **WHEN** element is `'button'` and props include `variant="fill"`, `p={8}`, `onClick={fn}`
+- **THEN** only `onClick` SHALL be forwarded to the DOM (variant and system prop filtered)
+
+#### Scenario: Forward props to component element
+- **WHEN** element is `NextLink` (a React component) and props include `href="/page"`, `variant="fill"`, `p={8}`
+- **THEN** `href="/page"` SHALL be forwarded to NextLink, but `variant` and `p` SHALL still be filtered

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: ES module import parsing
+The import resolver SHALL parse ES module import statements from OXC AST to extract binding-to-source mappings. It SHALL handle named imports, default imports, and namespace imports.
+
+#### Scenario: Named import
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Button } from './Button'`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL map binding `Button` in this file to source file `./Button` with export name `Button`
+
+#### Scenario: Renamed import
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Anchor as Link } from '@animus-ui/components'`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL map binding `Link` in this file to export name `Anchor` from `@animus-ui/components`
+
+#### Scenario: Default import
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import Button from './Button'`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL map binding `Button` to the default export of `./Button`
+
+### Requirement: Export parsing
+The import resolver SHALL parse export statements to build a map of what each file exports, enabling transitive resolution through barrel files.
+
+#### Scenario: Named re-export
+- **WHEN** `index.ts` contains `export { Box } from './elements/Box'`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL record that `index.ts` exports `Box`, sourced from `./elements/Box`
+
+#### Scenario: Direct export
+- **WHEN** a file contains `export const Box = animus.styles({...}).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL record that this file exports `Box` as a locally-defined binding
+
+### Requirement: Cross-file binding resolution
+The import resolver SHALL resolve a binding in one file to its original definition file by following import chains transitively.
+
+#### Scenario: Direct import resolution
+- **WHEN** `App.tsx` imports `Box` from `./elements/Box.tsx` and `Box.tsx` defines `export const Box = animus...`
+- **THEN** resolving binding `Box` in `App.tsx` SHALL yield `{ file: "./elements/Box.tsx", binding: "Box" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Barrel file resolution
+- **WHEN** `App.tsx` imports `Box` from `./elements` and `elements/index.ts` re-exports `Box` from `./Box.tsx`
+- **THEN** resolving binding `Box` in `App.tsx` SHALL transitively resolve to `{ file: "./elements/Box.tsx", binding: "Box" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Package import resolution
+- **WHEN** `App.tsx` imports `Anchor` from `@animus-ui/components` and the Vite plugin resolves this to `packages/ui/src/index.ts` which re-exports from `./elements/Anchor.tsx`
+- **THEN** resolving binding `Anchor` SHALL transitively resolve to `{ file: "packages/ui/src/elements/Anchor.tsx", binding: "Anchor" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Unresolvable binding
+- **WHEN** a binding cannot be traced to any file in the project (e.g., imported from `next/link`)
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL return `None` — the binding is external and not an animus component

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Project-level analysis NAPI entry point
+The Rust crate SHALL export a NAPI function `analyze_project(file_entries_json: String, theme_json: String, config_json: String, group_registry_json: String) -> String` that performs full-codebase static analysis and returns a JSON UniverseManifest. `file_entries_json` is a JSON array of `{ path: string, source: string }` objects.
+
+#### Scenario: Analyze project with no extensions
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project` is called with files containing only `animus.` chains (no `.extend()`)
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL contain all component definitions, their CSS, utility classes from JSX scanning, and the complete `@layer`-structured CSS output
+
+#### Scenario: Analyze project with extensions
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project` is called with files where FileB imports Button from FileA and does `Button.extend().styles({...}).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL contain both Button and the extended component, with the extended component's `extendsFrom` field pointing to Button's component ID, and its CSS reflecting the merged chain
+
+#### Scenario: Analyze project with no animus chains
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project` is called with files containing no `animus.` chains and no extension chains
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL have empty `components`, empty `utilities`, and empty `css`
+
+### Requirement: Per-file transform from manifest
+The Rust crate SHALL export a NAPI function `transform_file(source: String, filename: String, manifest_json: String) -> TransformResult` where `TransformResult` contains `code: String` and `has_components: bool`. The function SHALL look up the file's components in the manifest and apply source replacements.
+
+#### Scenario: Transform file with components
+- **WHEN** `transform_file` is called for a file that has components in the manifest
+- **THEN** the result SHALL have `has_components: true` and `code` containing `createComponent()` calls with the class names and configs from the manifest
+
+#### Scenario: Transform file without components
+- **WHEN** `transform_file` is called for a file that has no components in the manifest
+- **THEN** the result SHALL have `has_components: false` and `code` identical to the input source
+
+#### Scenario: Transform file adds CSS import
+- **WHEN** `transform_file` is called for a file that has components
+- **THEN** the transformed code SHALL include an import for the global CSS virtual module (e.g., `import 'virtual:animus/styles.css'`)
+
+### Requirement: UniverseManifest structure
+The manifest JSON SHALL contain: `components` (map of component ID to component descriptor), `utilities` (map of class name to CSS declaration), `css` (complete @layer-structured CSS string), `provenance` (map of component ID to array of ancestor component IDs), and `files` (map of file path to array of component IDs defined in that file).
+
+#### Scenario: Component ID format
+- **WHEN** a component `Box` is defined in `src/elements/Box.tsx`
+- **THEN** its component ID SHALL be `src/elements/Box.tsx::Box`
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest contains complete CSS
+- **WHEN** the project has components with styles, variants, states, groups, and extensions
+- **THEN** `manifest.css` SHALL contain the complete CSS with `@layer base, variants, states, system, custom;` declaration and all component and utility rules in their correct layers
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest lists files to components
+- **WHEN** `src/Button.tsx` defines `ButtonContainer` and `ButtonForeground`
+- **THEN** `manifest.files["src/Button.tsx"]` SHALL be `["src/Button.tsx::ButtonContainer", "src/Button.tsx::ButtonForeground"]`

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Chain walking from terminals
+The chain walker SHALL find all `.asElement(tag)` and `.asComponent(component)` terminal calls in the AST, walk backwards through the method chain, and collect each stage's argument spans. The walker SHALL recognize TWO chain patterns:
+
+1. **Primary chains**: `animus` root followed by zero or more stages, terminated by `.asElement(tag)` or `.asComponent(component)`
+2. **Extension chains**: A component binding root (any identifier that is NOT `animus`), followed by `.extend()`, followed by zero or more stages, terminated by `.asElement(tag)` or `.asComponent(component)`
+
+#### Scenario: Walk styles-variant-asElement chain
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).variant({...}).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with `terminal: "asElement"`, `tag: "button"`, stages `styles` and `variants`, and `extends_from: None`
+
+#### Scenario: Walk extension chain
+- **WHEN** source contains `Button.extend().styles({ borderRadius: 8 }).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with `terminal: "asElement"`, `tag: "button"`, stages containing `styles`, and `extends_from: Some("Button")`
+
+#### Scenario: Walk extension chain with asComponent terminal
+- **WHEN** source contains `Link.extend().states({ active: {} }).asComponent(NextLink)`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with `terminal: "asComponent"`, `tag: "NextLink"`, stages containing `states`, and `extends_from: Some("Link")`
+
+#### Scenario: Extension chain is extractable
+- **WHEN** source contains an extension chain with statically evaluable stages
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL be marked `extractable: true` — `.extend()` on a component binding is NO LONGER a bail condition
+
+#### Scenario: Extension with non-static stages still bails
+- **WHEN** source contains `Button.extend().styles({ color: dynamicVar }).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL bail with reason "variable reference (non-static)" — same bail rules as primary chains
+
+#### Scenario: Bare .extend() in animus chain still bails
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).extend(SomeComponent).asElement('div')` (extend as a STAGE, not as a chain root pattern)
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL bail — `.extend()` as a mid-chain call with an argument is not the same as the `.extend()` root pattern
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple chains including extensions in one file
+- **WHEN** source contains both `const A = animus.styles({...}).asElement('div')` and `const B = A.extend().styles({...}).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce two chain descriptors: A as a primary chain, B as an extension chain with `extends_from: Some("A")`
+
+### Requirement: NAPI function signature
+The Rust crate SHALL export THREE NAPI functions:
+1. `extract(source, filename, theme_json, config_json, group_registry_json) -> ExtractionResult` — per-file extraction (preserved for backward compatibility and testing)
+2. `analyze_project(file_entries_json, theme_json, config_json, group_registry_json) -> String` — project-level analysis returning JSON manifest
+3. `transform_file(source, filename, manifest_json) -> TransformResult` — per-file transformation using manifest
+
+#### Scenario: Backward-compatible extract
+- **WHEN** `extract()` is called with a file containing only primary chains (no extensions)
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce the same result as Arc 2 — CSS, transformed code, extractable flag, errors
+
+#### Scenario: analyze_project with extensions
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` is called with files containing extension chains
+- **THEN** the returned manifest JSON SHALL contain all components (primary and extended), resolved provenance, merged chain configs, and complete CSS
+
+#### Scenario: transform_file uses manifest
+- **WHEN** `transform_file()` is called with a file and a manifest
+- **THEN** it SHALL look up the file's components in the manifest and apply source replacements using the manifest's precomputed class names and configs
+
+### Requirement: ChainDescriptor extension fields
+The `ChainDescriptor` struct SHALL include an `extends_from: Option<String>` field containing the identifier name of the parent component when the chain is an extension chain. For primary chains (rooted at `animus`), this field SHALL be `None`.
+
+#### Scenario: Primary chain has no extends_from
+- **WHEN** a chain starts from `animus`
+- **THEN** `extends_from` SHALL be `None`
+
+#### Scenario: Extension chain has extends_from
+- **WHEN** a chain starts from `Button.extend()`
+- **THEN** `extends_from` SHALL be `Some("Button")`

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Two-phase build architecture
+The Vite plugin SHALL implement a two-phase build architecture: Phase 1 runs at `buildStart` to produce a UniverseManifest via full-codebase analysis, Phase 2 uses the manifest during per-file `transform` hooks.
+
+#### Scenario: buildStart produces manifest
+- **WHEN** Vite runs in production mode and calls `buildStart`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL: (1) evaluate the theme via `ssrLoadModule()`, (2) serialize config and group registry, (3) glob all source files matching include/exclude patterns, (4) read all file sources, (5) call `analyze_project()` to produce the manifest, (6) store the manifest and its CSS in memory
+
+#### Scenario: transform uses manifest
+- **WHEN** a file is processed by the `transform` hook
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL call `transform_file(code, id, manifestJson)` to produce transformed source, rather than calling `extract()` per file
+
+#### Scenario: Development mode remains no-op
+- **WHEN** Vite runs in development mode
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL not perform analysis or transformation, leaving Emotion runtime intact
+
+### Requirement: Single global CSS output
+The plugin SHALL emit a single virtual CSS module (`virtual:animus/styles.css`) containing ALL extracted CSS from the manifest. Per-file virtual CSS modules are no longer used.
+
+#### Scenario: Global CSS module resolution
+- **WHEN** transformed source imports `virtual:animus/styles.css`
+- **THEN** the plugin's `resolveId` hook SHALL resolve it and the `load` hook SHALL serve the manifest's complete CSS string
+
+#### Scenario: No duplicate @layer declarations
+- **WHEN** multiple files are transformed
+- **THEN** the `@layer base, variants, states, system, custom;` declaration SHALL appear exactly ONCE in the global CSS output (from the manifest), not once per file
+
+#### Scenario: CSS import in transformed files
+- **WHEN** a file has extracted components
+- **THEN** the transformed source SHALL import `virtual:animus/styles.css` — all files share one CSS import path
+
+### Requirement: File discovery via glob
+The plugin SHALL discover source files to analyze using configurable glob patterns. The default SHALL include `**/*.{ts,tsx,js,jsx}` within the project root, excluding `node_modules`, `dist`, and test directories.
+
+#### Scenario: Default glob
+- **WHEN** `animusExtract()` is called with no `include` option
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL scan `**/*.{ts,tsx,js,jsx}` in the project root, excluding `node_modules/**` and `dist/**`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom include/exclude
+- **WHEN** `animusExtract({ include: ['src/**/*.tsx'], exclude: ['src/**/*.test.tsx'] })` is called
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL only analyze files matching `src/**/*.tsx` that don't match `src/**/*.test.tsx`
+
+### Requirement: Package import resolution
+The plugin SHALL resolve package-name imports (e.g., `@animus-ui/components`) to their file paths using Vite's module resolution at `buildStart` time. This enables the import resolver to trace component bindings through package boundaries.
+
+#### Scenario: Resolve package import
+- **WHEN** a file imports `{ Anchor } from '@animus-ui/components'`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL resolve `@animus-ui/components` to its entry file path (e.g., `packages/ui/src/index.ts`) and include that file in the analysis, enabling the import resolver to trace `Anchor` to its definition in `packages/ui/src/elements/Anchor.tsx`
+
+#### Scenario: External package not resolved
+- **WHEN** a file imports `{ Link } from 'next/link'`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT attempt to resolve this package — it is external and not part of the animus component graph

+## 1. Chain Walker: Extension Chain Recognition
+
+- [ ] 1.1 Add `extends_from: Option<String>` field to ChainDescriptor
+- [ ] 1.2 Modify chain walking to recognize extension pattern: when root identifier is NOT `animus` and first method is `.extend()`, record `extends_from: Some(root_identifier)` and walk remaining chain as normal
+- [ ] 1.3 Remove `extend` from BAIL_METHODS — `.extend()` as a chain root pattern is extractable; `.extend(arg)` as a mid-chain call with an argument remains a bail
+- [ ] 1.4 Handle `.asComponent()` terminal as extractable for extension chains (set terminal to AsComponent, record component identifier as tag)
+- [ ] 1.5 Add unit tests: extension chain recognized and extractable, extension chain with extends_from set, asComponent terminal on extension chain is extractable, bare animus chain with .extend(arg) still bails, multiple chains (primary + extension) in same file
+
+## 2. Import Resolver (New Module)
+
+- [ ] 2.1 Create `import_resolver.rs` module with types: `ImportBinding { source_file, export_name }`, `FileExports { named: HashMap, default: Option, re_exports: Vec }`
+- [ ] 2.2 Parse import statements from OXC AST: `ImportDeclaration` → extract specifiers (named, default, namespace) and source path
+- [ ] 2.3 Parse export statements from OXC AST: `ExportNamedDeclaration` (with and without source), `ExportDefaultDeclaration`, re-exports
+- [ ] 2.4 Build global binding map: for each file, map local binding names to their resolved (file, export_name) pairs
+- [ ] 2.5 Implement transitive resolution: follow re-export chains through barrel files (e.g., index.ts re-exports from ./Box.tsx)
+- [ ] 2.6 Handle unresolvable imports: external packages (next/link, react) return None
+- [ ] 2.7 Relative path resolution: resolve `./Button` to the actual file path (try .ts, .tsx, .js, .jsx, /index.ts extensions)
+- [ ] 2.8 Add unit tests: named import resolution, renamed import, re-export through barrel file, unresolvable external import, relative path resolution with extensions
+
+## 3. Chain Merger (New Module)
+
+- [ ] 3.1 Create `chain_merger.rs` module with function `merge_chains(parent_config, child_stages) -> MergedConfig`
+- [ ] 3.2 Implement deep merge for serde_json::Value objects (equivalent to lodash merge): nested objects merge recursively, child values override parent on conflict, arrays and scalars are replaced not merged
+- [ ] 3.3 Merge each config field: baseStyles, variants (by prop key), statesConfig, activeGroups, custom props
+- [ ] 3.4 Implement topological sort of provenance graph for multi-level chains
+- [ ] 3.5 Detect cycles in provenance graph and report error
+- [ ] 3.6 Merged component gets own class name: `animus-{binding}-{hash(merged_chain)}`
+- [ ] 3.7 Add unit tests: merge base styles (child overrides), merge variants additively, merge states additively, merge groups additively, override variant option, three-level chain, cycle detection
+
+## 4. Project Analyzer (New Module + NAPI Entry Point)
+
+- [ ] 4.1 Create `project_analyzer.rs` module with `analyze(files, theme, config, group_registry) -> UniverseManifest`
+- [ ] 4.2 Phase 1: Walk all files with chain_walker, collect all chain descriptors per file
+- [ ] 4.3 Phase 2: Walk all files with import_resolver, build global binding map

+- [ ] 4.8 Phase 7: Build manifest JSON with components, utilities, css, provenance, files mappings
+- [ ] 4.9 Add NAPI entry point: `analyze_project(file_entries_json, theme_json, config_json, group_registry_json) -> String`
+- [ ] 4.10 Add NAPI entry point: `transform_file(source, filename, manifest_json) -> TransformResult`

+## 5. CSS Generator: Topological Ordering
+
+- [ ] 5.1 Modify `generate_css` to accept a topological order for components within each layer
+- [ ] 5.2 Parent component rules emitted BEFORE child component rules within same @layer block
+- [ ] 5.3 Components with no extension relationship ordered by file path + binding name (stable, deterministic)
+- [ ] 5.4 Add unit tests: parent before child in @layer base, deep chain ordering (A before B before C), unrelated components in stable order
+
+## 6. Transform Emitter: asComponent Support
+
+- [ ] 6.1 Update `ComponentReplacement` to distinguish between tag string and component reference for the element parameter
+- [ ] 6.2 When terminal is asComponent on an extension chain, emit `createComponent(ComponentRef, className, config)` where ComponentRef is the identifier (not a string literal)
+- [ ] 6.3 Preserve the original component import in the transformed source (e.g., NextLink import stays)
+- [ ] 6.4 Add `extendConfig` to the runtime config JSON: serialized chain configuration for runtime .extend() support

+## 7. Runtime Shim: Component Element + Extend
+
+- [ ] 7.1 Update createComponent to accept component references as first argument (not just string tags)
+- [ ] 7.2 Use `React.createElement(element, ...)` which handles both string tags and component references
+- [ ] 7.3 Implement working `.extend()` method that imports and returns AnimusExtended from @animus-ui/core, seeded with extendConfig
+- [ ] 7.4 When element is a component reference, skip `isPropValid` check — forward all non-filtered props
+- [ ] 7.5 Add extendConfig to ComponentConfig type definition
+
+## 8. Vite Plugin: Manifest-Based Architecture
+
+- [ ] 8.1 Add `analyze_project` and `transform_file` imports from the NAPI binding
+- [ ] 8.2 Restructure `buildStart`: evaluate theme, serialize config + group registry, glob source files, read all sources, call `analyze_project()`, store manifest + CSS
+- [ ] 8.3 Restructure `transform` hook: call `transform_file(code, id, manifestJson)` instead of `extract()`
+- [ ] 8.4 Change virtual CSS to single global module: `virtual:animus/styles.css` serves manifest CSS
+- [ ] 8.5 Remove per-file cssStore — replaced by single manifest CSS string
+- [ ] 8.6 Add file glob configuration to plugin options (include/exclude patterns with sensible defaults)
+- [ ] 8.7 Add package import resolution: use Vite's `this.resolve()` at buildStart to resolve package-name imports to file paths
+
+## 9. Integration Tests
+
+- [ ] 9.1 Create multi-file test fixtures: parent component file + extension file with import
+- [ ] 9.2 Create test fixture with .asComponent() extension (mirrors the real Anchor→Link pattern)
+- [ ] 9.3 Add canary tests for analyze_project: manifest contains both parent and child, provenance correct, CSS has both components
+- [ ] 9.4 Add canary tests for transform_file: source replacement correct, createComponent for asComponent uses identifier not string
+- [ ] 9.5 Add canary test: extension CSS ordering — parent rules before child rules within each @layer
+- [ ] 9.6 Add canary test: global utility deduplication — same utility from two files produces one class
+- [ ] 9.7 Add MANIFEST SNAPSHOT test: known fixture set → exact manifest JSON comparison (chain of trust: fixtures → manifest → CSS)
+- [ ] 9.8 Update existing canary tests to pass with new NAPI signatures (backward compatibility check)

+## Context
+
+The manifest from Arc 3 contains the complete enumerated universe: every component, every variant option, every state, every utility class. CSS is generated for ALL of them. A census of the doc site shows 62% of variant/state CSS rules are dead code — defined but never activated at any JSX callsite.
+
+The Finite Style Machine model defines four phases: ENUMERATE (Arcs 1-3, complete), TRANSACT (scan usage), RECONCILE (eliminate unused), SNOWFLAKE (system props, Arc 2). Arc 4 implements TRANSACT + RECONCILE as an optimization pass within the existing project analyzer pipeline.
+
+The JSX scanner (Arc 2) already walks JSX elements and collects system prop values. The extension is to also collect variant prop values, state prop activations, and component-level render tracking. This data feeds the reconciliation phase, which filters ComponentCss before CSS generation.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Track variant value usage at all JSX callsites across the project
+- Track state prop activation at all JSX callsites
+- Track whether each component is rendered at any callsite
+- Handle default variants (component rendered without explicit variant = default transacted IN)
+- Eliminate CSS rules for unused variant options, states, and entire unused components
+- Produce an extraction report summarizing what was kept, eliminated, and bailed
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Eliminating unused base styles (base styles are always emitted if the component is used)
+- Eliminating unused utility classes (utilities are already use-driven from JSX scanning)
+- Analyzing dynamic variant values (`variant={someVar}`) — all options transacted IN for safety
+- Dev-mode reconciliation — this is production build optimization only
+- CSS minification (Lightning CSS) — separate future concern
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Reconciliation as a filter phase, not a generator change
+
+Reconciliation happens BEFORE CSS generation, not inside it. The project analyzer builds the usage ledger, then FILTERS the ComponentCss list to remove unused variant options and state entries. The filtered list is passed to the existing `generate_css_ordered` function unchanged.
+
+This means zero changes to css_generator.rs. The generator doesn't know about reconciliation — it just generates CSS for whatever it receives.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Adding usage-awareness to the CSS generator. Rejected because it couples an optimization concern with a generation concern. The filter approach keeps them separate and testable independently.
+
+### 2. Usage ledger structure
+
+```rust
+pub struct UsageLedger {
+    /// Which components are rendered at any callsite
+    pub rendered_components: HashSet<String>,  // component bindings
+    /// Which variant values are used: component_binding → variant_prop → Set<option_values>
+    pub variant_usage: HashMap<String, HashMap<String, HashSet<String>>>,
+    /// Which state props are activated: component_binding → Set<state_names>
+    pub state_usage: HashMap<String, HashSet<String>>,
+}
+```
+
+The ledger is built from ALL files' JSX scanning results, then cross-referenced with the component manifest to determine what's dead.
+
+### 3. Default variant handling
+
+When a component has `defaultVariant: "fill"` and a callsite renders `<Button />` (no variant prop), the default is implicitly used. The scanner tracks TWO things:
+
+1. Explicit variant values: `<Button variant="stroke" />` → "stroke" used
+2. Default activations: `<Button />` (variant prop absent) → default variant "fill" used
+
+The reconciler combines both: used_options = explicit_values ∪ (default if any callsite omits the prop).
+
+If EVERY callsite specifies an explicit variant value, the default MAY be dead — but only if no callsite uses the default value explicitly either.
+
+### 4. Dynamic variant values = transact ALL options
+
+When a variant value is dynamic (`<Button variant={someVar} />`), we can't determine which option is used at build time. Safe behavior: transact ALL options IN for that variant prop on that component. No elimination occurs for that variant.
+
+Similarly, dynamic state props (`active={isActive}`) transact the state IN — we can't prove it's never true.
+
+### 5. Component-level elimination
+
+If a component is defined but never rendered at ANY callsite across the project, its ENTIRE CSS is eliminated: base styles, all variants, all states. The `createComponent` call still exists in the transformed source (the binding must remain valid), but no CSS is emitted.
+
+Edge case: a component might be imported but only used for its `.extend()` method, never rendered directly. In this case, it IS used (as a parent), so its CSS is kept — children inherit from it.
+
+### 6. Extraction report structure
+
+```json
+{
+  "report": {
+    "components": {
+      "total": 12,
+      "extracted": 10,
+      "bailed": 2,
+      "eliminated": 1
+    },
+    "variants": {
+      "total_options": 18,
+      "used": 8,
+      "eliminated": 10
+    },
+    "states": {
+      "total": 27,
+      "used": 9,
+      "eliminated": 18
+    },
+    "css": {
+      "before_reconciliation_bytes": 4280,
+      "after_reconciliation_bytes": 2640,
+      "reduction_percent": 38.3
+    },
+    "eliminated_details": [
+      { "component": "GridBox", "reason": "component never rendered" },
+      { "component": "Button", "variant": "fill", "reason": "variant option never used" },
+      { "component": "FlexBox", "state": "wrap", "reason": "state never activated" }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The report is part of the manifest JSON, available to the Vite plugin for logging at build time.
+
+### 7. Reconciliation order in the pipeline
+
+```
+Phase 1: Parse all files, collect chains + module info         (existing)
+Phase 2: Build binding map via import resolver                 (existing)
+Phase 3: Resolve extension provenance                          (existing)
+Phase 4: Topological sort                                      (existing)
+Phase 5: Evaluate chains + build ComponentCss                  (existing)
+Phase 5b: JSX scanning (system props + variant/state usage)    (EXTENDED)
+Phase 5c: Build usage ledger from scanning results             (NEW)
+Phase 5d: Reconcile — filter ComponentCss by usage ledger      (NEW)
+Phase 6: Generate CSS from reconciled ComponentCss             (existing)
+Phase 7: Build manifest with usage + report                    (EXTENDED)
+```
+
+The new phases slot between existing phases with no structural disruption.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] False elimination of variants used via spread props** → If `<Button {...props} />` passes a variant prop through spread, the scanner can't see the explicit value. Mitigation: the scanner already skips spread attributes. If a component ONLY receives its variant via spread (never explicitly), all its variant options survive (none can be proven dead). This is conservative and safe.
+
+**[Risk] Elimination of variants used in tests but not app code** → Test files are excluded from the analysis glob by default (`**/*.test.*`). Variants used only in tests would be eliminated from the production CSS. Mitigation: this is correct behavior — test-only variants shouldn't be in production CSS. Tests should use the Emotion runtime (dev mode) anyway.
+
+**[Trade-off] CSS size measurement is pre-minification** → The report's byte counts are for unminified CSS. Actual production savings depend on downstream minification. The percentage reduction is still meaningful as a relative measure.
+
+**[Trade-off] Report verbosity** → The `eliminated_details` array could be large for design systems with many variants. Mitigation: keep it concise (component + variant/state + reason). Developers can filter or summarize as needed.

+## Why
+
+Arcs 1-3 built the ENUMERATE phase of the Finite Style Machine: the manifest contains every component, every variant option, every state, every utility class. But it emits CSS for ALL of them — including variants and states that are never used at any JSX callsite. Census of the doc site reveals 62% of variant and state CSS rules are dead code (28 of 45 rules defined but never activated). At production scale, design systems with hundreds of variant options would carry even more dead weight.
+
+The Finite Style Machine's power is that the universe of styles is provably finite and enumerable. This means we can also provably determine the USED subset. The transact/reconcile model scans all JSX callsites, builds a usage ledger of which variant values and state names are actually activated, and eliminates CSS rules for everything that isn't. The result is a stylesheet that contains exactly the CSS the application needs — no more.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **JSX usage scanner extended**: Beyond system prop values (Arc 2), the scanner now tracks variant prop values (`variant="fill"`), state prop activations (`loading`, `active`), and component-level usage (was this component rendered at all).
+- **Usage ledger (new)**: A data structure mapping each component to its used variant options, used state names, and whether it's rendered. Built from scanning all files in the project.
+- **CSS reconciliation (new)**: A phase in the project analyzer that filters ComponentCss based on the usage ledger before CSS generation. Unused variant option rules, unused state rules, and entire unused components are eliminated.
+- **Extraction report (new)**: The manifest gains a `report` field summarizing what was extracted, what was eliminated, and what bailed. This is the developer's verification tool for understanding what the pipeline did.
+- **Default variant awareness**: The scanner detects when a component is rendered WITHOUT an explicit variant prop, implicitly transacting IN the default variant option.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `usage-ledger`: Tracks which variant values, state names, and components are used at JSX callsites across the project. Handles default variants (implicit transaction) and dynamic state values (presence = used).
+- `css-reconciler`: Filters the manifest's CSS output to eliminate rules for unused variant options, unused states, and entirely unused components. Produces the reconciled (minimal) CSS.
+- `extraction-report`: Generates a structured report of extraction results: components extracted vs bailed, variant/state rules kept vs eliminated, CSS size before vs after reconciliation.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `jsx-system-prop-scanner`: Extended to also collect variant prop values, state prop activations, and component render tracking alongside existing system prop value collection.
+- `project-analyzer`: Gains a reconciliation phase between chain evaluation and CSS generation. The manifest includes usage data and extraction report.
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: `analyze_project` return value (manifest) gains `usage` and `report` fields.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/extract/src/jsx_scanner.rs`**: Extended output types to include variant/state/component usage alongside system prop usages.
+- **`packages/extract/src/project_analyzer.rs`**: New reconciliation phase. Manifest struct gains `usage` and `report` fields.
+- **`packages/extract/src/css_generator.rs`**: No changes — reconciliation filters ComponentCss BEFORE passing to the generator.
+- **`packages/extract/src/lib.rs`**: Manifest serialization includes usage and report data.
+- **`packages/extract/tests/`**: New fixtures exercising dead variant elimination, Layer 4 concentric snapshot.
+- **No changes to runtime shim or Vite plugin**: Reconciliation is purely a build-time optimization within the Rust pipeline.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Eliminate unused variant option CSS
+The reconciler SHALL remove CSS rules for variant options that are not in the usage ledger's used set for that component and variant prop. The remaining CSS SHALL contain only rules for variant options that are actually used at callsites.
+
+#### Scenario: One of three options unused
+- **WHEN** component `Button` has variant options `fill`, `stroke`, `outline` and the ledger shows only `stroke` and `outline` used
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL NOT contain the `.animus-Button-xxx--variant-fill` rule but SHALL contain rules for `stroke` and `outline`
+
+#### Scenario: All options used
+- **WHEN** all variant options for a component appear in the usage ledger
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL contain all variant option rules (no elimination)
+
+#### Scenario: Default variant kept when implicit
+- **WHEN** `Button` has `defaultVariant: "fill"` and the ledger records `"fill"` as used (via implicit default activation)
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL keep the `.animus-Button-xxx--variant-fill` rule
+
+### Requirement: Eliminate unused state CSS
+The reconciler SHALL remove CSS rules for state names that are not in the usage ledger's used set for that component.
+
+#### Scenario: State never activated
+- **WHEN** component `FlexBox` has states `fit`, `center`, `wrap` and the ledger shows only `center` used
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL NOT contain rules for `--fit` or `--wrap` but SHALL contain the `--center` rule
+
+#### Scenario: All states used
+- **WHEN** all state names for a component appear in the usage ledger
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL contain all state rules
+
+### Requirement: Eliminate entire unused component CSS
+The reconciler SHALL remove ALL CSS rules (base, variants, states) for components that are neither rendered at any callsite NOR referenced as a parent in the provenance graph.
+
+#### Scenario: Component never rendered and not a parent
+- **WHEN** `GridBox` is defined but never rendered (`<GridBox>` never appears) and no other component extends from it
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL contain NO rules for GridBox (no base, no variants, no states)
+
+#### Scenario: Component not rendered but is a parent
+- **WHEN** `Anchor` is never rendered as `<Anchor>` but `NavLink` extends from it
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL KEEP Anchor's rules — NavLink's merged CSS depends on them for cascade correctness
+
+#### Scenario: Component rendered
+- **WHEN** `Button` is rendered at least once via `<Button />`
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL keep Button's base styles (and used variants/states)
+
+### Requirement: Reconciliation preserves CSS structure
+The reconciled CSS SHALL maintain the same @layer structure, topological ordering, and formatting as the pre-reconciliation CSS. Only individual rules within layers are removed — the layer structure itself is unchanged.
+
+#### Scenario: Layer still emitted with remaining rules
+- **WHEN** `@layer variants` had 10 rules and reconciliation removes 6
+- **THEN** `@layer variants` SHALL still be emitted with the remaining 4 rules
+
+#### Scenario: Empty layer omitted
+- **WHEN** reconciliation removes ALL rules from `@layer states` for all components
+- **THEN** the `@layer states { }` block SHALL be omitted from the CSS output (no empty layer blocks)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Variant usage tracking
+The usage ledger SHALL track which variant option values are used for each component at JSX callsites across all analyzed files. For each component binding, the ledger records a map of variant prop name to the set of option values observed.
+
+#### Scenario: Explicit variant value
+- **WHEN** a callsite has `<Button variant="stroke" />`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL record that component `Button`'s variant prop `variant` has value `"stroke"` used
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple variant values across callsites
+- **WHEN** callsites have `<Button variant="stroke" />` and `<Button variant="fill" />`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL record both `"stroke"` and `"fill"` as used for `Button.variant`
+
+#### Scenario: Default variant implicit activation
+- **WHEN** a component has `defaultVariant: "fill"` and a callsite renders `<Button />` without a `variant` prop
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL record `"fill"` as used (the default is implicitly activated)
+
+#### Scenario: Default NOT activated when all callsites specify explicit values
+- **WHEN** a component has `defaultVariant: "fill"` and EVERY callsite specifies an explicit variant value (e.g., all use `variant="stroke"`)
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL NOT record `"fill"` as used — no callsite triggers the default
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic variant value transacts all options
+- **WHEN** a callsite has `<Button variant={someVariable} />`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL record ALL variant options for `Button.variant` as used — the dynamic value could be any option at runtime
+
+### Requirement: State usage tracking
+The usage ledger SHALL track which state props are activated for each component at JSX callsites.
+
+#### Scenario: Static state activation
+- **WHEN** a callsite has `<Layout sidebar />`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL record state `"sidebar"` as used for component `Layout`
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic state activation
+- **WHEN** a callsite has `<Layout loading={isLoading} />`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL record state `"loading"` as used — the dynamic boolean could be true at runtime
+
+#### Scenario: State never activated
+- **WHEN** no callsite across any file passes the `loading` prop to `Layout`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL NOT contain `"loading"` for `Layout`
+
+### Requirement: Component render tracking
+The usage ledger SHALL track whether each component is rendered at any JSX callsite. A component is considered rendered if its binding name appears as a JSX element tag.
+
+#### Scenario: Component rendered
+- **WHEN** any callsite has `<GridBox>...</GridBox>` or `<GridBox />`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL record `GridBox` as rendered
+
+#### Scenario: Component never rendered
+- **WHEN** no file in the project contains a `<GridBox>` or `<GridBox />` element
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL NOT contain `GridBox` in the rendered set
+
+#### Scenario: Component imported but only extended
+- **WHEN** `Anchor` is imported in a file but only used as `Anchor.extend()` — never rendered as `<Anchor>`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL NOT record `Anchor` as rendered via JSX — but Anchor's CSS is still kept because it is a parent in the provenance graph
+
+### Requirement: Variants without defaultVariant excluded from tracking
+Variant props that have NO `defaultVariant` defined SHALL be excluded from the `ComponentUsageConfig` and SHALL NOT be tracked by the scanner. The reconciler SHALL receive no usage data for those variant props and SHALL fall back to conservative behavior: all options are kept. This prevents implicit callsite usage (no prop passed) from incorrectly eliminating all options when there is no default to resolve to.
+
+#### Scenario: Variant without default keeps all options
+- **WHEN** a component has `variant({ variants: { ui: {...}, text: {...} } })` with NO `defaultVariant` and some callsites render the component without a variant prop
+- **THEN** the reconciler SHALL keep ALL variant options (`ui` and `text`) because the variant prop is not tracked
+
+### Requirement: Conservative fallback when no usage data
+When a component IS in `rendered_components` but the ledger contains NO entries in `variant_usage` or `state_usage` for that component, the reconciler SHALL keep ALL variant options and ALL states for that component. No elimination occurs without positive evidence of what IS used.
+
+#### Scenario: Rendered component with no variant/state usage data
+- **WHEN** a component `Box` is rendered at callsites but no variant or state props are passed
+- **THEN** the reconciler SHALL keep all of Box's variants and states intact

+## Context
+
+The import resolver (Arc 3) traces bindings across files by parsing import/export statements and following re-export chains. It works for relative imports (`./Button`, `../elements/Box`) because the `resolve_path` callback can compute the absolute path from the importing file's directory.
+
+For package-name imports (`@animus-ui/components`, `next/link`), the callback currently returns None — the import is treated as external and skipped. This means any component binding imported via a package specifier is invisible to the provenance resolver and the JSX scanner's rendered_components tracking.
+
+The Vite plugin has access to `this.resolve()` — Vite's built-in module resolution that handles package.json `exports` fields, TypeScript path aliases, workspace packages, and node_modules resolution. The plugin can pre-resolve package specifiers before calling the Rust analyzer.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Package-name imports of animus components are resolved to their source file definitions
+- The Vite plugin pre-resolves package specifiers using Vite's module resolution
+- The import resolver traces bindings through resolved package entry files (barrel re-exports)
+- The doc site Layer 5 snapshot reflects full extraction coverage (all 24 components)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Resolving ALL package imports — only packages matching configurable patterns (default: `@animus-ui/*`) are resolved. External packages like `next/link`, `react`, etc. remain unresolved.
+- Runtime package resolution — this is purely build-time, within the Vite plugin's `buildStart` hook
+- Source maps or CSS minification — deferred to future work
+- TypeScript path alias resolution outside of Vite — the plugin delegates to Vite's resolver
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Pre-resolution in Vite plugin, not in Rust
+
+The Vite plugin resolves package specifiers BEFORE calling `analyze_project`. It passes a resolution map (`{ "@animus-ui/components": "packages/ui/src/index.ts" }`) alongside the file entries. The Rust analyzer uses this map in the import resolver's `resolve_path` callback.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Having the Rust NAPI function call back into JavaScript for resolution. Rejected because NAPI callbacks are complex (async boundaries, thread safety) and the resolution set is small (a handful of package patterns) — pre-resolution is simpler and faster.
+
+### 2. Package resolution map as a separate NAPI parameter
+
+```rust
+pub fn analyze_project(
+    file_entries_json: String,
+    theme_json: String,
+    config_json: String,
+    group_registry_json: String,
+    package_resolution_json: String,  // NEW: { "pkg-name": "resolved/path" }
+) -> String
+```
+
+The map is `HashMap<String, String>` — package specifier → resolved entry file path (relative to project root). The import resolver checks this map when `resolve_path` receives a non-relative import source.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Embedding the resolution map inside file_entries_json. Rejected because the resolution map has different semantics (it maps import specifiers, not file paths) and mixing them would complicate the FileEntry type.
+
+### 3. Vite plugin discovers package imports by scanning source files
+
+At `buildStart`, after discovering source files, the plugin scans each file's source for `import ... from 'pkg-pattern'` statements matching the configured patterns. For each unique package specifier found:
+
+1. Call `this.resolve(specifier)` to get the absolute file path
+2. Read the resolved file's source
+3. Add it to the file entries (if not already present)
+4. Record the mapping: `specifier → relative_path`
+
+This is a SCAN-then-RESOLVE approach. The scan doesn't need to parse AST — a regex match on `from ['"](@animus-ui/[^'"]+)['"]` is sufficient since we're looking for import sources, not import bindings.
+
+### 4. Recursive entry file inclusion
+
+A package's entry file (e.g., `packages/ui/src/index.ts`) typically re-exports from internal files:
+```typescript
+export { Box } from './elements/Box';
+export { Text } from './elements/Text';
+```
+
+The import resolver already follows re-export chains transitively (Arc 3). But the internal files (`./elements/Box.tsx`) must be in the file entries for the resolver to read their exports. The Vite plugin must include not just the entry file but also the files it re-exports from.
+
+**Approach:** After resolving the package entry file, recursively discover all `.ts`/`.tsx` files in the same directory tree and include them in the file entries. This is the same glob approach used for the project's own source files. For a monorepo package like `packages/ui/src/`, this means including all its source files.
+
+For node_modules packages, this could include a large number of files. The `packagePatterns` config limits which packages are resolved, and the file discovery is bounded to the package's source directory.
+
+### 5. configurable packagePatterns
+
+```typescript
+interface AnimusExtractOptions {
+  // ...existing options...
+  packagePatterns?: string[];  // default: ['@animus-ui/*']
+}
+```
+
+Only imports matching these patterns trigger resolution. This prevents the plugin from trying to resolve `react`, `next`, `lodash`, etc.
+
+Pattern matching: simple prefix match. `@animus-ui/*` matches `@animus-ui/components`, `@animus-ui/core`, etc. Not a full glob — just prefix + wildcard.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Large package source trees** → A resolved package might have hundreds of source files. Mitigation: `packagePatterns` limits which packages are resolved. For `@animus-ui/*`, the source trees are small (~30 files). For external design system packages, the consumer can choose whether to include them.
+
+**[Risk] Circular package dependencies** → Package A imports from Package B which imports from Package A. Mitigation: the import resolver already handles cycles via `MAX_CHAIN_DEPTH = 32` (Arc 3). Package-level cycles would be caught the same way.
+
+**[Trade-off] Regex vs AST for import scanning** → Using regex to find package imports is fast but imprecise (could match imports in comments or strings). AST parsing is precise but slower. For the `buildStart` context (one-time, not per-file), regex is fast enough and false positives are harmless (resolving an extra package just adds files to the analysis set).
+
+## Architectural Hooks for Future Work
+
+This arc creates infrastructure that enables downstream work without implementing it:
+
+### Dev-mode extraction (HMR)
+The package resolution map + the file dependency graph (which files import from which packages) form the dependency DAG needed for incremental re-analysis. When a file changes:
+1. Look up which components it defines (from `manifest.files`)
+2. Look up which components extend from those (from `manifest.provenance`)
+3. Re-extract the changed file + dependents
+4. Compute CSS delta (diff old manifest CSS vs new)
+5. Vite natively hot-replaces CSS (`<link>` tag or `<style>` block)
+
+The total cost is ~1ms parse + ~1ms resolve per changed file. This is faster than Emotion's per-render style computation.
+
+### Emotion exit path
+With full extraction coverage (24/24 components), the extraction pipeline produces CSS for EVERYTHING the design system renders. Emotion's role becomes: dev-mode fallback for the bail conditions (dynamic function values, inline scales). As those are addressed (`@layer dynamic` for function values, inline scale support for .props()), Emotion's role shrinks to zero.
+
+The `@layer` specificity trap means Emotion and extraction CANNOT coexist safely — unlayered CSS (Emotion) always beats layered CSS (@layer). Full extraction coverage is the prerequisite for removing Emotion, and package resolution is the prerequisite for full coverage.
+
+### Layer 5 snapshot as validation signal
+The Layer 5 snapshot currently captures 8 extracted components. After this arc, it should capture all 24, with significantly more CSS including responsive `@media` queries from LayoutContainer, ContentContainer, and other responsive-heavy components that are currently eliminated. The snapshot SIZE INCREASE is the primary validation signal that package resolution is working.

+## Why
+
+The Layer 5 reality probe revealed that 16 of 24 doc site components are eliminated by the reconciler — not because they're unused, but because the pipeline can't trace their usage through package-name imports. When `pages/index.tsx` imports `{ Box, Text } from '@animus-ui/components'`, the import resolver returns None for the package specifier `@animus-ui/components`. It can't map `Box` in the page back to `Box` defined in `packages/ui/src/elements/Box.tsx`. The component appears unused and is eliminated.
+
+The remaining 8 components that DO extract are used via direct relative imports within the doc site's own component files (e.g., `Button.tsx` renders `<ButtonContainer>` directly). This proves the pipeline works — the gap is specifically in package-name resolution.
+
+Closing this gap moves the doc site from 8/24 components extracted (33%) to potentially 24/24 (100%), completing the Finite Style Machine's coverage of the real codebase. This is the prerequisite for the Emotion exit — extraction cannot replace Emotion until it covers ALL components, and it cannot cover all components without resolving package imports.
+
+Additionally, the 16 eliminated components include the most responsive-heavy ones (LayoutContainer, ContentContainer, SidebarContainer) whose `@media` queries are currently absent from the Layer 5 snapshot. Full extraction coverage will produce significantly richer CSS output with complete responsive breakpoint support.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Package resolution map**: The `analyze_project` NAPI function accepts an additional parameter — a JSON map of package specifiers to their resolved entry file paths (e.g., `{ "@animus-ui/components": "packages/ui/src/index.ts" }`). The import resolver uses this map for non-relative imports.
+- **Vite plugin pre-resolution**: At `buildStart`, the Vite plugin scans all discovered files for package-name imports matching configurable patterns (default: `@animus-ui/*`), resolves each via Vite's `this.resolve()`, reads the resolved entry files, and includes them in the file entries passed to `analyze_project`.
+- **Import resolver package path support**: The `resolve_path` callback (used by `resolve_bindings`) now receives the package resolution map and returns resolved paths for package specifiers.
+- **Layer 5 snapshot update**: With package resolution enabled, the doc site snapshot should show significantly more components extracted and more complete CSS output.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `package-resolution`: Maps package specifiers (e.g., `@animus-ui/components`) to their entry file paths, enabling the import resolver to trace bindings through package boundaries. Supports both monorepo workspaces (resolved via Vite's module resolution) and node_modules packages.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `import-resolver`: The `resolve_bindings` function's path resolution callback now handles package specifiers in addition to relative paths, using a pre-built package resolution map.
+- `project-analyzer`: `analyze_project` NAPI function accepts an optional package resolution map. The project analyzer passes this to the import resolver's path resolution callback.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: `buildStart` discovers package-name imports, resolves them via `this.resolve()`, reads entry files, and includes them in the analysis. Configurable via `packagePatterns` option (default: `['@animus-ui/*']`).
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/extract/src/import_resolver.rs`**: resolve_path callback receives package map for non-relative resolution
+- **`packages/extract/src/project_analyzer.rs`**: analyze function accepts + threads package resolution map
+- **`packages/extract/src/lib.rs`**: analyze_project NAPI function gains optional package_resolution_json parameter
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`**: buildStart scans for package imports, resolves via this.resolve(), includes entry files
+- **`packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts`**: Layer 5 snapshot updated with full extraction coverage
+- **No runtime shim changes**: package resolution is purely a build-time concern
+
+## Future Hooks (not implemented in this arc, but enabled by it)
+
+- **Emotion replacement**: Full extraction coverage + the existing `@layer` cascade makes Emotion redundant. The extraction pipeline IS the styling runtime — for both production (static CSS) and dev mode (incremental re-extraction on HMR). Emotion's unlayered CSS is incompatible with `@layer` ordering, making coexistence a bug, not a feature.
+- **Dev-mode extraction**: The package resolution map + file dependency graph built here is the foundation for incremental manifest updates on HMR. File changes → re-extract one file → CSS delta → Vite replaces CSS. OXC parses in ~1ms/file.
+- **`@layer dynamic`**: Dynamic function values (currently bail) can become CSS variable slots in a highest-priority layer. Runtime only sets variables, not injects rules. This is the SNOWFLAKE strategy from the Finite Style Machine vision.
+- **CSS serialization parity audit**: Before fully replacing Emotion, audit that extraction's CSS output matches Emotion's for shorthands, vendor prefixes, and unit conversions.

+- **THEN** imports from both packages SHALL be resolved to their respective entry files
+
+### Requirement: Package source file inclusion
+When a package is resolved to an entry file, ALL source files in that package's directory tree SHALL be included in the analysis file set. This ensures the import resolver can follow re-export chains from the entry file to the actual component definition files.
+
+#### Scenario: Entry file re-exports from internal files
+- **WHEN** `packages/ui/src/index.ts` re-exports `{ Box } from './elements/Box'`

+## Context
+
+The extraction pipeline (Arcs 1-5) and smoke test prove that `analyzeProject` + `transformFile` produce correct CSS and source transformations. The Vite plugin currently guards all extraction behind `isProd` — dev mode is a no-op. This design removes that guard and adds HMR support.
+
+The key Vite plugin hooks for dev mode:
+- `configureServer(server)` — access to the dev server, runs once at startup
+- `handleHotUpdate({ file, server, modules })` — fires when a file changes, before transform
+- `transform(code, id)` — fires for each module, can use manifest from closure
+- `resolveId` / `load` — virtual module resolution, serves CSS from manifest
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Extraction runs in dev mode (`vite dev`), not just production
+- File changes trigger manifest re-analysis and CSS hot replacement
+- The manifest persists in the plugin closure across HMR cycles
+- The smoke test app works with `vite dev` (styles render, HMR updates them)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Incremental/differential analysis (full re-analysis on each change for now)
+- File watching optimization (all .ts/.tsx files re-analyzed, not just changed ones)
+- Emotion removal from @animus-ui/core (that's a separate change to the core package)
+- Source maps (still deferred)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Manifest lives in plugin closure
+
+```typescript
+function animusExtract(options) {
+  // These persist across the entire dev server lifetime
+  let manifest: any = null;
+  let manifestJson = '';
+  let manifestCss = '';
+  let fileEntries: FileEntry[] = [];
+
+  return {
+    configureServer(server) { /* initial analysis */ },
+    handleHotUpdate(ctx) { /* re-analysis on change */ },
+    transform(code, id) { /* uses current manifest */ },
+    load(id) { /* serves current manifestCss */ },
+  };
+}
+```
+
+The closure is the SINGLE SOURCE OF TRUTH for the manifest during the dev session. `handleHotUpdate` mutates it. `transform` and `load` read from it.
+
+### 2. configureServer for initial analysis
+
+```typescript
+configureServer(server) {
+  // Discover files, read sources, run analyzeProject
+  // Store manifest in closure
+  // This runs ONCE when `vite dev` starts
+}
+```
+
+`configureServer` fires before any requests. The manifest is ready before the first page load. This replaces `buildStart` for dev mode (though `buildStart` still runs for production builds).
+
+### 3. handleHotUpdate for file changes
+
+```typescript
+async handleHotUpdate({ file, server }) {
+  if (!isRelevantFile(file)) return;
+
+  // 1. Update the file entry in our stored fileEntries
+  const relativePath = relative(rootDir, file);
+  const idx = fileEntries.findIndex(e => e.path === relativePath);
+  if (idx >= 0) {
+    fileEntries[idx].source = readFileSync(file, 'utf-8');
+  }
+
+  // 2. Re-run analyzeProject with updated file entries
+  manifestJson = analyzeProject(JSON.stringify(fileEntries), ...);
+  manifest = JSON.parse(manifestJson);
+  manifestCss = manifest.css;
+
+  // 3. Invalidate the CSS virtual module
+  const cssModule = server.moduleGraph.getModuleById(RESOLVED_CSS);
+  if (cssModule) {
+    server.moduleGraph.invalidateModule(cssModule);
+    // Send HMR update for the CSS module
+    server.ws.send({ type: 'full-reload' });
+    // OR for true CSS HMR:
+    // server.reloadModule(cssModule);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 4. CSS hot replacement strategy
+
+Two options for CSS updates:
+
+**Option A: Full page reload** — simplest. `server.ws.send({ type: 'full-reload' })`. The page reloads with new CSS. Simple but loses React state.
+
+**Option B: CSS module invalidation** — `server.moduleGraph.invalidateModule(cssModule)` marks the CSS as stale. On next request, Vite re-serves it. For HMR, we'd need to send the updated CSS to the client. Vite's CSS HMR expects the CSS to come from a real file or a module that implements HMR accept.
+
+**Option C: Custom HMR via ws.send** — send the CSS update directly:
+```typescript
+server.ws.send({
+  type: 'update',
+  updates: [{
+    type: 'css-update',
+    path: VIRTUAL_CSS,
+    timestamp: Date.now(),
+  }],
+});
+```
+
+Start with Option A (full reload). It's correct and simple. Optimize to Option B/C later if the reload is disruptive.
+
+### 5. Remove isProd guard
+
+The current plugin has `if (!isProd) return;` in `buildStart` and `transform`. Remove these guards. Instead, use `configureServer` for dev-mode initialization and `buildStart` for production builds.
+
+```typescript
+// Dev mode: configureServer fires, buildStart does NOT
+// Prod mode: buildStart fires, configureServer does NOT
+configureServer(server) {
+  // Dev analysis here
+},
+buildStart() {
+  // Prod analysis here (existing code)
+},
+```
+
+Actually — both hooks fire in both modes. `configureServer` only fires when a server exists (dev mode). `buildStart` fires in both dev and build. The cleanest approach: do analysis in `buildStart` always, and add `handleHotUpdate` for dev-specific re-analysis.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Full re-analysis on every file change** → For 3-file smoke test: ~3ms. For 500-file project: ~500ms. Mitigation: fast enough for small-medium projects. Incremental analysis is a future optimization with the same interface.
+
+**[Trade-off] Full page reload vs CSS HMR** → Full reload loses React state but is simpler and guaranteed correct. CSS-only HMR preserves state but requires virtual module HMR plumbing. Start with full reload.
+
+**[Risk] Dev/prod CSS mismatch** → If the dev and prod pipelines produce different CSS, developers see one thing in dev and another in prod. Mitigation: both modes use the exact same `analyzeProject` function — the CSS is deterministic from the same inputs.

+## Why
+
+The smoke test proves the extraction pipeline produces a working app in production builds. But development mode still falls back to Emotion runtime — the plugin is a no-op when `vite dev` runs. This means developers don't see extracted behavior during development, and any mismatch between Emotion's runtime output and the extraction pipeline's static output would only surface at build time.
+
+More fundamentally: extraction is Emotion's replacement, not its complement. Emotion's unlayered CSS is incompatible with `@layer` ordering (the specificity trap). The two systems cannot coexist safely. Dev-mode extraction eliminates the last reason to keep Emotion in the dependency graph.
+
+Vite's plugin API provides everything needed:
+- `configureServer` — run initial analysis when the dev server starts
+- `handleHotUpdate` — re-analyze when files change, update the manifest, invalidate CSS
+- Plugin closure — persistent manifest storage across HMR cycles
+- Native CSS HMR — Vite hot-replaces `<link>` tags automatically when CSS modules change
+
+The extraction pipeline is fast enough for dev mode: OXC parses ~1ms/file, full analysis of a 30-file project takes <30ms. Re-analysis on each file change is instantaneous.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Vite plugin dev-mode activation**: Remove the production-only guard. The plugin runs `analyzeProject` at `configureServer` (dev) or `buildStart` (build).
+- **`handleHotUpdate` hook**: When a file changes, re-read it, re-run `analyzeProject` with updated sources, update the manifest in the closure, and invalidate the CSS virtual module. Vite's HMR runtime hot-replaces the CSS.
+- **Manifest as living cache**: The manifest persists in the plugin closure across the dev server lifetime. `handleHotUpdate` is the mutation point. `transform` and `load` always read from the current manifest.
+- **Smoke test dev mode verification**: Run `vite dev` on the smoke test app, edit a component, verify styles update without page reload.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `dev-mode-extraction`: The Vite plugin performs extraction in development mode, maintaining a living manifest that updates on file changes via HMR. CSS updates are hot-replaced without page reload.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Remove production-only guard. Add `configureServer` hook for initial dev analysis. Add `handleHotUpdate` hook for incremental manifest updates. Manifest stored in plugin closure as persistent dev-server state.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`**: Major changes — dev mode activation, configureServer, handleHotUpdate, manifest closure pattern
+- **`packages/smoke-test/vite.config.ts`**: Remove any prod-only workarounds, test HMR flow
+- **Emotion becomes optional**: With dev-mode extraction, Emotion is no longer needed for development. Components render with extracted CSS in both dev and production.
+- **No Rust changes**: The NAPI functions (`analyzeProject`, `transformFile`) work the same in dev and production.
+
+## Future Hooks
+
+- **Incremental analysis**: For large projects, re-running full `analyzeProject` on every change is wasteful. A future `updateManifest(changedFile, newSource)` NAPI function could update only the affected components. The interface (handleHotUpdate → update manifest → invalidate CSS) stays the same.
+- **File watching scope**: The dev server could watch only files that contain animus chains, ignoring changes to files without extractable components.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Extraction runs in development mode
+The Vite plugin SHALL perform extraction in development mode (`vite dev`), not only in production builds. The dev server SHALL analyze all source files at startup and maintain a manifest that updates on file changes.
+
+#### Scenario: Dev server startup
+- **WHEN** `vite dev` starts
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL run `analyzeProject` on all discovered source files and store the manifest in memory before the first page request is served
+
+#### Scenario: Components render with extracted styles in dev
+- **WHEN** a component defined with `animus.styles({...}).asElement('div')` is rendered during dev mode
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have extracted CSS class names and the extracted CSS SHALL be served via the virtual CSS module — same as production
+
+#### Scenario: Dev and prod output identical
+- **WHEN** the same source files are processed by dev mode and production build
+- **THEN** the generated CSS and source transformations SHALL be identical (both use `analyzeProject`)
+
+### Requirement: HMR updates styles on file change
+When a source file changes during dev mode, the plugin SHALL re-analyze the project, update the manifest, and trigger a style update so the browser reflects the new styles without a manual refresh.
+
+#### Scenario: Style change triggers CSS update
+- **WHEN** a developer changes `animus.styles({ display: 'flex' })` to `animus.styles({ display: 'grid' })` and saves
+- **THEN** the browser SHALL update to show the new `display: grid` style without the developer manually refreshing
+
+#### Scenario: New component added
+- **WHEN** a developer adds a new component with `animus.styles({...}).asElement('div')` to a file and saves
+- **THEN** the new component SHALL be included in the manifest and its CSS SHALL be available
+
+#### Scenario: Variant added
+- **WHEN** a developer adds a new variant option to an existing component and saves
+- **THEN** the new variant's CSS SHALL appear in the updated styles
+
+### Requirement: Manifest persists across HMR cycles
+The manifest SHALL be stored in the plugin's closure scope, persisting across the dev server's lifetime. The `handleHotUpdate` hook SHALL be the only mutation point for the manifest.
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple file changes
+- **WHEN** a developer saves file A, then saves file B, then saves file A again
+- **THEN** after each save, the manifest SHALL reflect the latest state of ALL files (not just the most recently changed one)
+
+#### Scenario: Server restart resets manifest
+- **WHEN** the dev server is restarted
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL be rebuilt from scratch via `analyzeProject`

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Plugin activation in all modes
+The Vite plugin SHALL perform extraction in BOTH development mode (`vite dev`) and production builds (`vite build`). The production-only guard SHALL be removed. Analysis runs at `buildStart` in both modes. Dev mode additionally uses `handleHotUpdate` for incremental updates.
+
+#### Scenario: Dev mode analysis
+- **WHEN** `vite dev` starts and `buildStart` fires
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL discover files, run `analyzeProject`, store the manifest, and serve extracted CSS via the virtual module
+
+#### Scenario: Production build analysis
+- **WHEN** `vite build` runs and `buildStart` fires
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL behave identically to the current implementation — discover files, analyze, generate CSS, transform sources
+
+#### Scenario: Dev mode transform
+- **WHEN** a `.tsx` file is requested during dev mode
+- **THEN** the `transform` hook SHALL use the current manifest to replace animus chains with `createComponent` calls, same as production
+
+### Requirement: handleHotUpdate for manifest re-analysis
+The plugin SHALL implement the `handleHotUpdate` Vite hook. When a relevant source file changes, the plugin SHALL update the stored file entries, re-run `analyzeProject`, update the manifest and CSS, and trigger a browser update.
+
+#### Scenario: File change triggers re-analysis
+- **WHEN** a `.tsx` file changes during dev mode
+- **THEN** `handleHotUpdate` SHALL update the file's source in the stored entries, re-run `analyzeProject`, and update `manifestJson`/`manifestCss` in the closure
+
+#### Scenario: CSS virtual module invalidated
+- **WHEN** re-analysis produces updated CSS
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL invalidate the CSS virtual module in Vite's module graph and trigger a browser update (full reload initially, CSS-only HMR as future optimization)
+
+#### Scenario: Non-relevant file ignored
+- **WHEN** a file that is not `.ts`/`.tsx`/`.js`/`.jsx` changes (e.g., `.md`, `.json`)
+- **THEN** `handleHotUpdate` SHALL not re-analyze — the manifest stays unchanged

+## Context
+
+The extraction pipeline (Arcs 1-5) successfully replaces Emotion's `styled()` with static CSS + a lightweight `createComponent()` runtime shim. However, correctness verification is incomplete:
+
+- The smoke test has no TypeScript checking — Vite uses esbuild which strips types without validation. Source-level type errors (the builder chain's type-state machine) are never verified.
+- The Rust chain walker silently skips unknown builder methods (`chain_walker.rs:242`). A chain like `animus.styles({}).garbage({}).asElement('div')` extracts only `.styles()` and silently ignores `.garbage()`.
+- The transform prepends `import { createComponent } from '@animus-ui/runtime'` but leaves the original `import { animus } from '@animus-ui/core'` intact — dead code that causes Emotion to load.
+- The `.asComponent()` HOC path (wrapping a React component instead of an HTML tag) works in the runtime but has zero smoke test coverage.
+
+A previous proposal (`typescript-type-preservation`) suggested making `createComponent` generic with type assertions in the transform output. **This is unnecessary.** The transform output is an ephemeral artifact consumed by esbuild/browser — it's never type-checked. Type safety lives at the source level, enforced by the builder chain's type-state machine before extraction transforms the code.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Verify source-level type correctness via `tsc --noEmit` in the smoke test
+- Bail on unknown chain methods in the Rust walker (defense-in-depth)
+- Strip dead `@animus-ui/core` imports from transformed output
+- Exercise the `.asComponent()` path in the smoke test
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Generic `createComponent<Props>` signature — unnecessary, transform output is never type-checked
+- Full Emotion import tree removal (transitive deps) — dead code elimination handles this at bundle time
+- New runtime capabilities — the shim is functionally complete for current scope
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Unknown method → bail, not skip
+
+**Decision:** When `chain_walker.rs` encounters a method not in `CHAIN_METHODS` and not in `BAIL_METHODS`, it sets `extractable = false` with bail reason `"unknown chain method: {name}"`.
+
+**Rationale:** The TypeScript type-state machine prevents invalid methods at compile time. The Rust bail is defense-in-depth — if source somehow contains an invalid method (code generation, macro, skipped tsc), extraction should fail loudly rather than produce CSS with missing styles. The alternative (silently skip) was the current behavior and caused the Priority 1 item.
+
+### 2. Import stripping via byte-range removal in apply_replacements
+
+**Decision:** `apply_replacements` receives the set of import sources that are "consumed" by extraction (currently just `@animus-ui/core`). Any `import` statement whose source matches a consumed import AND whose bindings are all replaced gets removed from the output.
+
+**Rationale:** The transform already manipulates the source as a string with byte-range replacements. Adding import removal to the same pass is natural. The alternative (Vite plugin post-processing) adds complexity in a different layer. We only strip imports when ALL bindings from that import have been replaced — partial imports (e.g., `import { animus, someHelper }` where only `animus` chains are extracted) keep the import.
+
+**Constraint:** The Rust side only knows about builder chain bindings. It cannot determine if other named imports from the same source are used elsewhere. The safe approach: only strip imports where EVERY named binding from that import is a known extracted component binding.
+
+### 3. Smoke test tsconfig extends root with jsx: react-jsx
+
+**Decision:** `packages/smoke-test/tsconfig.json` extends the root `tsconfig.json`, overrides `jsx` to `"react-jsx"` (modern transform), sets `noEmit: true`, and includes `src/**/*.tsx`.
+
+**Rationale:** The root tsconfig uses `"jsx": "react"` (classic transform). The smoke test uses React 18 with the modern JSX transform (no `import React`). The `noEmit` flag is set because Vite handles actual compilation — tsc is only for type verification.
+
+### 4. Supersede typescript-type-preservation proposal
+
+**Decision:** The `typescript-type-preservation` change at `openspec/changes/typescript-type-preservation/` should be archived after this change lands. Its core premise (generic `createComponent`) is unnecessary.
+
+**Rationale:** Transform output is never type-checked. Type safety is a source-level concern, not a transform-output concern. The Vite pipeline: source → tsc verifies types → Vite transform replaces chains → esbuild strips types → browser gets plain JS. The replacement happens AFTER type checking.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Import stripping heuristic may be too conservative]** → If a file imports `{ animus, createParser }` from core and only `animus` chains are extracted, the import stays. This means `createParser` (and transitively Emotion) still loads. Mitigation: this is the safe default. A future change can implement smarter dead-import analysis.
+- **[Unknown method bail may break edge cases]** → If someone chains a method we haven't considered (e.g., a future builder API addition), extraction bails. Mitigation: the `CHAIN_METHODS` list is explicit and versioned with the crate. Adding a new method is a one-line change.
+- **[tsc may find existing type errors in smoke test]** → The smoke test source may have latent type issues that were invisible without tsc. Mitigation: fix them — that's the point.

+## Why
+
+The extraction pipeline replaces Emotion's `styled()` with `createComponent()` at build time, but three correctness gaps remain: (1) the smoke test has no `tsconfig.json` or `tsc --noEmit` step, so type safety of the source code is never verified, (2) the Rust chain walker silently skips unknown builder methods instead of bailing, and (3) the transform prepends runtime imports but leaves the original `@animus-ui/core` (and transitively Emotion) imports as dead code. Additionally, the `.asComponent()` HOC path — which forwards `className` to wrapped components — has zero test coverage in the smoke test.
+
+Type safety lives at the SOURCE level (pre-extraction), not the transform output. The builder chain's type-state machine prevents invalid method sequences at compile time. The Rust pipeline should enforce the same boundary at build time. The transform output is an ephemeral artifact consumed by the browser — it doesn't need TypeScript types, but it shouldn't drag in dead Emotion imports.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Smoke test TypeScript verification**: Add `tsconfig.json` extending root config and a `typecheck` script (`tsc --noEmit`) to `packages/smoke-test/`. This makes source-level type errors visible.
+- **Unknown chain method bail**: In `chain_walker.rs`, methods not in `CHAIN_METHODS` or `BAIL_METHODS` set `extractable = false` with a clear bail reason. Currently these are silently skipped, producing CSS with missing styles.
+- **Dead import stripping in transform**: `transform_emitter.rs`'s `apply_replacements` removes the original `import { animus } from '@animus-ui/core'` line when all builder chain bindings in a file have been replaced. Prevents Emotion from loading in the transformed output.
+- **`.asComponent()` smoke test coverage**: Add a component using `.asComponent()` to the smoke test, exercising the HOC className forwarding path through both extraction and rendering.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+_None — this change tightens existing capabilities rather than introducing new ones._
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: Chain walker must bail on unknown methods (defense-in-depth matching the type-state machine's compile-time enforcement).
+- `extraction-runtime-shim`: No functional changes, but dead import stripping in transform output affects the emitted code shape.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: No functional changes, but smoke test infrastructure validates the full pipeline including type checking.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Chain walking from terminals
+The chain walker SHALL find all `.asElement(tag)` and `.asComponent(component)` terminal calls in the AST, walk backwards through the method chain, and collect each stage's argument spans. The walker SHALL recognize TWO chain patterns:
+
+1. **Primary chains**: `animus` root followed by zero or more stages, terminated by `.asElement(tag)` or `.asComponent(component)`
+2. **Extension chains**: A component binding root (any identifier that is NOT `animus`), followed by `.extend()`, followed by zero or more stages, terminated by `.asElement(tag)` or `.asComponent(component)`
+
+The walker SHALL bail with `extractable: false` when encountering a method call that is not in the known `CHAIN_METHODS` set, not in the `BAIL_METHODS` set, and is not a recognized terminal or extension marker.
+
+#### Scenario: Walk styles-variant-asElement chain
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).variant({...}).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with `terminal: "asElement"`, `tag: "button"`, stages `styles` and `variants`, and `extends_from: None`
+
+#### Scenario: Walk extension chain
+- **WHEN** source contains `Button.extend().styles({ borderRadius: 8 }).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with `terminal: "asElement"`, `tag: "button"`, stages containing `styles`, and `extends_from: Some("Button")`
+
+#### Scenario: Walk extension chain with asComponent terminal
+- **WHEN** source contains `Link.extend().states({ active: {} }).asComponent(NextLink)`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with `terminal: "asComponent"`, `tag: "NextLink"`, stages containing `states`, and `extends_from: Some("Link")`
+
+#### Scenario: Extension chain is extractable
+- **WHEN** source contains an extension chain with statically evaluable stages
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL be marked `extractable: true` — `.extend()` on a component binding is NO LONGER a bail condition
+
+#### Scenario: Extension with non-static stages still bails
+- **WHEN** source contains `Button.extend().styles({ color: dynamicVar }).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL bail with reason "variable reference (non-static)" — same bail rules as primary chains
+
+#### Scenario: Bare .extend() in animus chain still bails
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).extend(SomeComponent).asElement('div')` (extend as a STAGE, not as a chain root pattern)
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL bail — `.extend()` as a mid-chain call with an argument is not the same as the `.extend()` root pattern
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple chains including extensions in one file
+- **WHEN** source contains both `const A = animus.styles({...}).asElement('div')` and `const B = A.extend().styles({...}).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce two chain descriptors: A as a primary chain, B as an extension chain with `extends_from: Some("A")`
+
+#### Scenario: Walk variant-only chain
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.variant({...}).variant({...}).asElement('span')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with two variant entries merged (matching lodash `merge` semantics in the runtime)
+
+#### Scenario: Walk chain with groups stage
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).groups({ space: true, layout: true }).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with a `groups` stage containing active group names `["space", "layout"]` and the chain SHALL be marked extractable
+
+#### Scenario: Walk chain with props stage
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).props({ logoSize: { property: 'fontSize', scale: { xs: 28, sm: 32 } } }).asElement('h1')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with a `props` stage containing the custom prop configuration and the chain SHALL be marked extractable
+
+#### Scenario: Walk chain with both groups and props
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).groups({ space: true }).props({ custom: {...} }).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with both `groups` and `props` stages and the chain SHALL be marked extractable
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple chains in one file
+- **WHEN** source contains multiple independent `animus.` chains (e.g., `ButtonContainer` and `ButtonForeground`)
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a separate chain descriptor for each, and each SHALL be independently extractable or bailable
+
+#### Scenario: Unknown method causes bail
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).unknownMethod({...}).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL set `extractable: false` with bail reason containing "unknown chain method: unknownMethod"
+
+#### Scenario: Future method on extension chain causes bail
+- **WHEN** source contains `Button.extend().styles({...}).futureAPI({...}).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL set `extractable: false` with bail reason containing "unknown chain method: futureAPI"
+
+### Requirement: Source replacement
+The source replacer SHALL replace the entire chain expression (from `animus.` root to terminal) with a `createComponent()` call importing from `@animus-ui/runtime`, and add a CSS import for the extracted stylesheet. When ALL named bindings from an import statement have been replaced by extraction, the replacer SHALL remove that import statement from the output.
+
+#### Scenario: Replace asElement chain
+- **WHEN** source has `export const Button = animus.styles({...}).variant({...}).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the transformed source SHALL contain an import of `createComponent` from `@animus-ui/runtime`, an import of the CSS file, and `export const Button = createComponent('button', 'animus-Button-hash', { variants: { variant: { options: ['fill', 'stroke'], default: undefined } } })`
+
+#### Scenario: Preserve non-chain code
+- **WHEN** source has code before and after the chain expression (imports, other exports, JSX components)
+- **THEN** the transformed source SHALL preserve all non-chain code exactly, only replacing the chain expression itself
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple chains in one file
+- **WHEN** source has `const A = animus.styles({...}).asElement('div')` and `const B = animus.styles({...}).asElement('span')`
+- **THEN** both SHALL be replaced with separate `createComponent()` calls, and the CSS import SHALL include styles for both components
+
+#### Scenario: Dead import removal when all bindings replaced
+- **WHEN** source has `import { animus } from '@animus-ui/core'` and the `animus` binding's chain is fully extracted
+- **THEN** the transformed source SHALL NOT contain the `import { animus } from '@animus-ui/core'` statement
+
+#### Scenario: Partial import preservation
+- **WHEN** source has `import { animus, createParser } from '@animus-ui/core'` and only `animus` chains are extracted
+- **THEN** the transformed source SHALL preserve the import (because `createParser` may still be used)

+
+#### Scenario: tsconfig resolves workspace packages

+## Context
+
+The extraction pipeline (Arcs 1-5) is fully tested at the NAPI function level but has never been exercised through a real Vite build. The smoke test app validates the full vertical: Vite plugin → Rust analysis → CSS generation → source transformation → React rendering → browser styling.
+
+The app is intentionally minimal — just enough components to exercise each extraction feature. It lives in `packages/smoke-test/` as a private, non-published package.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- `vite build` succeeds with extraction enabled
+- Produced `dist/` contains HTML, JS bundle, and extracted CSS
+- CSS contains `@layer base, variants, states, system, custom;` with real rules
+- JS bundle uses `createComponent` from the runtime shim (no Emotion imports)
+- App renders correctly when served via `vite preview`
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Production-ready app (this is a smoke test, not a demo)
+- Dev mode / HMR (extraction is production-only for now)
+- Theme provider or color modes (static theme values only)
+- Testing the Vite plugin's package resolution (the app uses direct workspace aliases)
+- Source maps (not implemented yet)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Inline extraction plugin instead of importing @animus-ui/vite-plugin
+
+The Vite plugin package imports from `@animus-ui/core/transforms` which requires workspace package resolution. In the smoke test's isolated context, this creates circular resolution issues. Instead, the smoke test defines a minimal inline plugin function that:
+- Loads the NAPI addon directly via `require('../extract/index.js')`
+- Loads the serialized config via Bun subprocess (to handle TypeScript generics)
+- Calls `analyzeProject` and `transformFile` directly
+
+This avoids workspace resolution complexity while testing the same Rust functions.
+
+### 2. Pre-serialized config via Bun subprocess
+
+The `serialize-config.ts` fixture contains TypeScript generics (`Map<Function, string>`) that Node's CJS `require()` can't parse. The smoke test runs Bun as a subprocess to evaluate the fixture and produce JSON, which is then consumed by the Vite config.
+
+### 3. Workspace aliases for @animus-ui/* imports
+
+```typescript
+resolve: {
+  alias: {
+    '@animus-ui/core': join(__dirname, '../core/src'),
+    '@animus-ui/runtime': join(__dirname, '../runtime/src'),
+  },
+}
+```
+
+This lets the app's source files use standard `import { animus } from '@animus-ui/core'` and `import { createComponent } from '@animus-ui/runtime'` — the same imports that extraction produces in transformed code.
+
+### 4. Static theme (no theme provider)
+
+The smoke test uses hardcoded CSS values in the theme JSON (e.g., `colors.primary: '#6366f1'`), not CSS variables from a ThemeProvider. This means the app works without Emotion, without a provider tree, and without color mode support. Colors are static hex values, not `var(--colors-primary)`.
+
+### 5. Components exercise all extraction features
+
+The smoke test components cover:
+- `.styles()` with static values and pseudo-selectors (`&:hover`)
+- `.variant()` with `defaultVariant` and multiple options
+- `.states()` with boolean toggles
+- `.groups()` with system props (space, layout, color, typography, flex)
+- Responsive values (object syntax: `{ _: 16, sm: 32 }`)
+- JSX callsites with static system prop values
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] NAPI addon not loadable from smoke test context** → Mitigation: use relative path `../extract/index.js`. The addon must be pre-built (`bunx @napi-rs/cli build --platform`).
+
+**[Risk] Bun subprocess for config serialization adds build time** → Mitigation: one-time cost at vite config load. ~50ms for Bun to evaluate the fixture.
+
+**[Trade-off] Inline plugin vs real plugin** → The inline plugin tests the same Rust functions but doesn't test the real Vite plugin's file discovery, package resolution, or theme evaluation. Those are tested separately in the canary integration tests.

+## Why
+
+Five arcs of the Finite Style Machine are implemented: 146 Rust unit tests, 74 integration tests, 5 concentric snapshots. But every test calls Rust NAPI functions directly — no test has ever run the pipeline through a real Vite build. We have never:
+
+1. Run `vite build` with the extraction plugin enabled
+2. Produced a bundled app where components render with extracted CSS class names
+3. Verified that the runtime shim (`createComponent`) works in a browser context
+4. Seen the extracted CSS actually style rendered elements
+
+This is the gap between "the pipeline works" and "the pipeline produces a working app." A minimal Vite + React app that defines animus components, uses them with system props/variants/states, builds with extraction, and renders correctly in a browser closes this gap.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **New package `packages/smoke-test/`**: A minimal Vite + React app with its own animus components (no dependency on the doc site or UI package)
+- **Inline extraction plugin**: A simplified version of the Vite plugin that loads the NAPI addon directly, avoiding workspace package resolution issues. Uses pre-serialized config from the test fixture source of truth.
+- **Components exercising all extraction features**: styles, variants (with defaults), states, groups (system props), responsive values, pseudo-selectors
+- **Build verification**: `vite build` produces `dist/` with HTML + JS + CSS where the CSS contains extracted @layer rules and the JS uses `createComponent` from the runtime shim
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `smoke-test-app`: A buildable Vite + React application that validates the full extraction pipeline end-to-end: source analysis → CSS generation → source transformation → runtime class application → browser rendering.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+None — this is a new self-contained package that consumes existing packages without modifying them.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/smoke-test/`**: New package (not published, private)
+- **No changes to existing packages**: core, extract, runtime, vite-plugin are consumed as-is
+- **Validates**: Vite plugin integration, NAPI addon loading, runtime shim in browser context, CSS @layer rendering
+
+## Known Integration Challenges
+
+1. **Vite config TypeScript**: Vite processes its config through Node's ESM loader, which can't handle TypeScript generics in `require()`'d modules. The serialized config must be loaded via Bun subprocess or pre-generated JSON.
+2. **Workspace package resolution**: `@animus-ui/*` packages aren't published — they're workspace packages. The Vite config uses `resolve.alias` to point imports at source directories.
+3. **NAPI addon path**: The `@animus-ui/extract` native addon must be loadable from the smoke test directory. Relative path to `../extract/index.js` works in the monorepo.
+4. **Runtime shim bundling**: The transformed source imports from `@animus-ui/runtime`. Vite must resolve this to the runtime package's source via alias.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Vite build produces extracted output
+The smoke test app SHALL build successfully via `vite build`, producing a `dist/` directory with HTML, JS bundle(s), and CSS file(s) containing extracted styles.
+
+#### Scenario: Build succeeds
+- **WHEN** `vite build` is run in the smoke test package
+- **THEN** the build SHALL complete without errors and produce output in `dist/`
+
+#### Scenario: CSS contains @layer structure
+- **WHEN** the build output CSS is examined
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain `@layer base, variants, states, system, custom;` and rules within each used layer
+
+#### Scenario: JS uses createComponent
+- **WHEN** the build output JS is examined
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain `createComponent` calls (from the runtime shim) and SHALL NOT contain `animus.styles` builder chain expressions
+
+### Requirement: Components render with correct classes
+The smoke test app's components SHALL render with the extracted CSS class names that correspond to their extracted styles, variants, and states.
+
+#### Scenario: Base styles applied
+- **WHEN** a component with `.styles({ display: 'flex' })` renders
+- **THEN** the element SHALL have a class like `animus-Box-{hash}` and the CSS SHALL contain `.animus-Box-{hash} { display: flex; }`
+
+#### Scenario: Variant class applied
+- **WHEN** `<Button variant="secondary">` renders
+- **THEN** the element SHALL have both the base class and a variant modifier class `animus-Button-{hash}--variant-secondary`
+
+#### Scenario: System prop utility class applied
+- **WHEN** `<Box p={32}>` renders
+- **THEN** the element SHALL have a utility class `animus-u-{hash}` and the CSS SHALL contain a matching rule with `padding: 2rem`
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive utility class
+- **WHEN** `<Box p={{ _: 16, sm: 32 }}>` renders
+- **THEN** the CSS SHALL contain a utility class with base padding AND an `@media (min-width: 768px)` block with the sm padding value
+
+### Requirement: App serves and renders visually
+The smoke test app SHALL serve via `vite preview` and render visible, styled content in a browser.
+
+#### Scenario: Preview serves the app
+- **WHEN** `vite preview` is run after a successful build
+- **THEN** the app SHALL be accessible at `http://localhost:4173` (or configured port)
+
+#### Scenario: Styles are visible
+- **WHEN** the app is viewed in a browser
+- **THEN** components SHALL be visibly styled (colors, spacing, typography from the extracted CSS) — not unstyled raw HTML

+## Context
+
+The extraction pipeline produces component CSS that references CSS custom properties (e.g., `color: var(--color-primary)`). These var references are correct — the Rust `theme_resolver` resolves `color: 'primary'` against the flattened theme which contains `colors.primary: 'var(--color-primary)'`.
+
+What's missing: the variable DEFINITIONS. The `:root { --color-primary: #6b21a8 }` and `[data-color-mode="dark"] { --color-primary: #ff80bf }` blocks that give those CSS vars their values. Currently Emotion's `<Global>` component emits these. Without Emotion, the Vite plugin must emit them alongside extracted component CSS.
+
+The theming package (`packages/theming/`) already computes everything we need. `ThemeBuilder.build()` produces:
+- `theme._variables.root` — raw color CSS var definitions (e.g., `--color-navy-500: #282a36`)
+- `theme._variables.mode` — semantic color mode var definitions (e.g., `--color-primary: var(--color-purple-700)`)
+- `theme._variables.shadows` / `gradients` — computed scale var definitions
+- `theme._tokens.modes` — per-mode resolved hex values for all semantic tokens
+
+The Vite plugin has an `evaluateTheme()` function in `theme-evaluator.ts` that was built for this but never wired in. It uses `ssrLoadModule()` to evaluate the theme module and flattens scales. It needs to ALSO extract `_variables` for CSS emission.
+
+**Known tech debt:** The theming package imports `Theme` from `@emotion/react` (`serializeTokens.ts:2`) and core has pervasive `@emotion/react` type dependencies. This does NOT block this change — `ssrLoadModule` evaluates JS at runtime where types are irrelevant — but it's a seam that must be addressed for full Emotion exit.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Emit CSS variable definitions from the theme's `_variables` structure as part of extracted CSS output
+- Support color mode switching via `[data-color-mode]` CSS attribute selectors
+- Wire `evaluateTheme` with `ssrLoadModule` in the Vite plugin (replacing pre-serialized JSON for theme evaluation)
+- Demonstrate with a smoke test dark mode toggle
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Removing Emotion type dependencies from `@animus-ui/core` or `@animus-ui/theming` (separate change)
+- Server-side rendering of color mode preferences (pure client-side for now)
+- Supporting arbitrary numbers of color modes (two modes — light/dark — is sufficient)
+- Modifying the Rust extraction pipeline (it already handles `var(--x)` correctly)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Variable definitions prepended to `virtual:animus/styles.css`
+
+**Decision:** CSS variable definitions are emitted at the TOP of the virtual CSS module, BEFORE the `@layer` declaration and component CSS. This ensures variables are defined before any component rule references them.
+
+**Output shape:**
+```css
+/* --- Theme variable definitions --- */
+:root {
+  --color-navy-500: #282a36;
+  --color-primary: var(--color-purple-700);
+  --shadows-logo: 0.1em calc(0.07em * -1) ...;
+  /* ... all _variables entries ... */
+}
+
+[data-color-mode="dark"] {
+  --color-primary: var(--color-pink-600);
+  --color-background: var(--color-navy-900);
+  /* ... dark mode overrides only ... */
+}
+
+/* --- Extracted component CSS --- */
+@layer base, variants, states, system, custom;
+@layer base { ... }
+```
+
+**Rationale:** A single virtual module is simpler than two (`theme.css` + `styles.css`). CSS variable definitions don't participate in `@layer` — they're in the implicit default layer, which is correct. A separate module would require consumers to import both.
+
+### 2. `evaluateTheme` returns both flat scales AND variable CSS
+
+**Decision:** Enhance `evaluateTheme` to return an object `{ scalesJson: string, variableCss: string }` instead of just a flat JSON string. The `variableCss` is a ready-to-emit CSS string containing `:root` and `[data-color-mode]` blocks.
+
+**Rationale:** Generating the CSS string in the theme evaluator (JS) rather than in the Rust crate keeps Rust changes at zero. The evaluator already has access to the full theme object including `_variables` and `_tokens.modes`. Converting `_variables` objects to CSS declarations is straightforward string manipulation.
+
+**Variable-to-CSS conversion:**
+The `_variables` structure is `{ root: { '--color-x': 'value' }, mode: { '--color-y': 'var(...)' }, shadows: { '--shadows-z': '...' } }`. Each nested object's entries become CSS declarations. The `mode` entries are the DEFAULT mode (initial mode from `addColorModes`). Dark mode overrides come from `_tokens.modes.dark` mapped through the raw color registry.
+
+### 3. Color mode switching: dark mode CSS derived from `_tokens.modes`
+
+**Decision:** The theme evaluator generates `[data-color-mode="dark"]` CSS by:
+1. Reading `theme._tokens.modes.dark` (maps semantic names to resolved hex values)
+2. For each semantic token, emitting `--color-{name}: {value}` (direct hex, not var references)
+3. Non-default modes beyond light/dark follow the same pattern
+
+**Why direct hex values, not var references for dark mode:** The `_tokens.modes.dark` object has already-resolved hex values. Using them directly is simpler and produces smaller CSS. Var-referencing (`--color-primary: var(--color-pink-600)`) would work but adds a level of indirection that only matters if raw colors change per-mode (they don't — only semantic aliases change).
+
+Wait — actually, using var references is MORE correct. If someone overrides `--color-pink-600` globally, dark mode's `--color-primary` should pick up the override. Let me reconsider.
+
+**Revised decision:** Use `_tokens.modes` keys to look up var references from the same registry that `addColorModes` used. Each mode entry maps semantic names to raw color keys. The CSS emitter maps those keys to `var(--color-{key})` references. This preserves the indirection chain and is more compositionally correct.
+
+### 4. Smoke test: static `_variables` object instead of ThemeBuilder
+
+**Decision:** The smoke test will construct a `_variables` object directly (not via `ThemeBuilder`) to avoid adding `@animus-ui/theming` as a dependency. A small set of color variables (primary, secondary, background, text) with light/dark modes is sufficient.
+
+**Rationale:** The smoke test's purpose is to verify the extraction pipeline, not the ThemeBuilder. The ThemeBuilder's Emotion type dependency would pull Emotion into the smoke test. A manually constructed `_variables` object exercises the same Vite plugin code path.
+
+### 5. Color mode runtime: inline `<script>` pattern
+
+**Decision:** The smoke test demonstrates a minimal inline script pattern:
+```html
+<script>
+  const mode = localStorage.getItem('color-mode')
+    || (matchMedia('(prefers-color-scheme: dark)').matches ? 'dark' : 'light');
+  document.documentElement.dataset.colorMode = mode;
+</script>
+```
+
+This runs before React hydration, preventing a flash of wrong colors. It's NOT a package export — it's a pattern to copy. A formal `@animus-ui/color-mode` package is a future concern.
+
+**Rationale:** A <200 byte inline script is simpler and more performant than a React context provider for this specific task. The React-based `useColorModes()` from the theming package can be kept for dev-mode convenience but is not needed for extracted apps.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[`ssrLoadModule` availability]** → `ssrLoadModule` is only available in Vite's dev server and build pipeline. It won't work in non-Vite contexts. Mitigation: the plugin is already Vite-only. For future bundler plugins, theme evaluation will need a different mechanism.
+- **[Theme module side effects]** → `ssrLoadModule` executes the theme module's JS, including any side effects (font imports, polished transforms). If the module has heavy side effects, build time increases. Mitigation: theme modules are typically pure computation. Document this expectation.
+- **[Emotion type dependency in theming package]** → `serializeTokens.ts` imports `Theme` from `@emotion/react`. This doesn't block runtime evaluation but creates a compile-time dependency. Mitigation: note as tech debt; address in a separate "remove Emotion type dependencies" change.
+- **[Dark mode flash on page load]** → Without the inline script, the page renders in light mode and then switches. Mitigation: the inline script pattern runs before React and prevents flash. Document it clearly.

+## Why
+
+The smoke test used static hex values (`colors.primary: '#6366f1'`) — no dark mode, no theme switching. Real applications need color modes: light/dark themes that swap colors without changing component CSS. The Animus theming package (`packages/theming/`) already supports this via CSS custom properties — `colors.primary` resolves to `var(--colors-primary)`, and color mode definitions set the variable values on `:root` or `[data-color-mode="dark"]`.
+
+The extraction pipeline already handles CSS variables in the flattened theme — the doc site's theme has `colors.primary: 'var(--colors-primary)'` and extracted CSS correctly emits `color: var(--colors-primary)`. What's MISSING is who emits the variable DEFINITIONS — the `:root { --colors-primary: #6366f1 }` and `[data-color-mode="dark"] { --colors-primary: #a5b4fc }` blocks. Currently that's Emotion's `<Global>` component. Without Emotion, extraction must handle it.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **CSS custom property definitions in extracted output**: The Vite plugin evaluates the theme's color modes at build time (via `serializeTokens` from `@animus-ui/theming`) and prepends the variable definitions to the extracted CSS output.
+- **Theme evaluation at build start**: The plugin uses Vite's `ssrLoadModule()` to evaluate the actual theme module (not pre-serialized JSON), extracting both the flattened scale values AND the color mode variable definitions.
+- **Color mode switching at runtime**: A minimal `<ColorModeProvider>` (or a standalone `<style>` tag) defines the CSS custom properties. No Emotion needed — pure CSS custom properties with a `[data-color-mode]` attribute selector.
+- **Smoke test with dark mode**: Update the smoke test to include a light/dark toggle, proving color modes work with extracted CSS.
+
+## Key Design Questions
+
+1. **Where do variable definitions live?** Options: (a) prepended to the main `virtual:animus/styles.css`, (b) a separate `virtual:animus/theme.css` module, (c) a standalone `theme.css` file generated at build time.
+
+2. **How is the theme module evaluated?** The `evaluateTheme` function in `vite-plugin/src/theme-evaluator.ts` was designed for this — it uses `ssrLoadModule()` to evaluate the theme builder chain and produces both flattened scales and CSS variable definitions. It was never actually wired in (the plugin currently accepts pre-serialized JSON).
+
+3. **Color mode switching mechanism**: The Animus theming package has `useColorModes()` and `<ColorMode>` components that set a `data-color-mode` attribute. These are React components that currently depend on Emotion. They need a zero-dependency equivalent — likely just a `<script>` that reads localStorage and sets the attribute, plus CSS that uses `[data-color-mode="dark"]` selectors.
+
+4. **Scale values that are CSS variables vs static**: Some scales are mode-dependent (colors, shadows, gradients → CSS variables) while others are static (space, fontSizes, radii → literal values). The flattened theme already handles this: mode-dependent scales produce `var(--x)` values, static scales produce literal values. The extraction pipeline treats them identically.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `theme-variable-emission`: The extraction pipeline emits CSS custom property definitions for color-mode-dependent theme tokens alongside the component CSS.
+- `color-mode-runtime`: A minimal (<200 byte) runtime script that reads the preferred color mode from localStorage/prefers-color-scheme and sets `data-color-mode` on the root element.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: `buildStart` evaluates the theme module via `ssrLoadModule()` to extract both flattened scales and variable definitions. Emits variable CSS alongside component CSS.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`**: Wire `evaluateTheme` with `ssrLoadModule`, emit variable CSS
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/theme-evaluator.ts`**: Enhance to extract variable definitions alongside scale flattening
+- **`packages/smoke-test/`**: Add dark mode toggle, verify color mode switching with extracted CSS
+- **`packages/theming/`**: May need to export CSS variable definitions in a format consumable by the plugin
+- **No Rust changes**: The Rust pipeline already handles `var(--x)` values correctly — it just resolves and emits them

+
+#### Scenario: Root variable definitions
+- **WHEN** the theme has `_variables.root` containing `{ '--color-navy-500': '#282a36', '--color-white': '#FFFFFF' }`

+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain these definitions within the `:root` block

+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain a `[data-color-mode="dark"] { --color-primary: var(--color-{dark-value}); }` block AFTER the `:root` block
+

+- **WHEN** dark mode overrides 20 semantic tokens but there are 36 raw color definitions
+- **THEN** the `[data-color-mode="dark"]` block SHALL contain ONLY the semantic overrides, NOT the raw color definitions (raw colors don't change between modes)

+
+#### Scenario: evaluateTheme return shape
+- **WHEN** `evaluateTheme(ssrLoadModule, themePath)` is called with a theme module
+- **THEN** it SHALL return `{ scalesJson: string, variableCss: string }` where `scalesJson` is the flat `{ "scale.key": "value" }` JSON and `variableCss` is the `:root { ... } [data-color-mode="dark"] { ... }` CSS string

Theme evaluation (via `evaluateTheme` or other means) is the CALLER's responsibility.
+

+
+#### Scenario: Theme options parsed in both dev and build modes
+- **WHEN** the plugin runs in dev mode (`command: 'serve'`)
+- **THEN** theme and variable CSS SHALL still be parsed from options, so the virtual CSS module can serve variable definitions even without full extraction
+
+### Requirement: CSS output includes theme variables
+The virtual CSS module (`virtual:animus/styles.css`) SHALL prepend theme variable CSS (`:root` definitions and `[data-color-mode]` overrides) before the component CSS when variable definitions are available.
+
+#### Scenario: Virtual module with theme variables
+- **WHEN** the plugin has theme variables and extracted component CSS
+- **THEN** the virtual CSS module content SHALL be `variableCss + '\n\n' + componentCss`
+
+#### Scenario: Virtual module without theme variables
+- **WHEN** the plugin uses a pre-serialized JSON theme (no `_variables` available)
+- **THEN** the virtual CSS module content SHALL contain only the component CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Dev mode serves variable CSS
+- **WHEN** the plugin runs in dev mode with `theme: { scales, variables }` provided
+- **THEN** the virtual CSS module SHALL serve the variable CSS even though component extraction is skipped

+## Status: SUPERSEDED
+
+**Superseded by:** `extraction-correctness` change
+
+## Original Premise (Incorrect)
+
+This proposal assumed that `createComponent` needed generic type parameters to preserve TypeScript type safety after extraction. The concern was that `<Button variant="typo">` would no longer be a type error after the builder chain was replaced.
+
+## Why This Is Unnecessary
+
+The transform output is an ephemeral artifact — generated by Vite's build pipeline, consumed by esbuild (which strips types), and served to the browser as plain JS. **Nobody type-checks the transform output.**
+
+Type safety lives at the SOURCE level:
+
+1. Developer writes `components.tsx` using the builder chain → tsc checks it → type-state machine catches invalid chains and props
+2. Developer writes `App.tsx` using `<Button variant="ghost">` → tsc checks it → import resolves to source types
+3. Vite transforms → replaces chain with `createComponent(...)` → esbuild strips types → browser gets JS
+4. The replacement happens AFTER type checking. The erased types were never needed post-transform.
+
+## What Was Done Instead
+
+The `extraction-correctness` change addresses the actual concerns:
+- **Source-level type verification**: Smoke test tsconfig + `tsc --noEmit` (validates that source types actually work)
+- **Rust defense-in-depth**: Unknown chain method bail (the build-time mirror of the type system)
+- **Dead import removal**: Transform strips `@animus-ui/core` import so Emotion doesn't load
+- **`.asComponent()` coverage**: Exercises the HOC className forwarding path
+
+## Recommendation
+
+Archive this change. The generic `createComponent<Props>` approach is unnecessary engineering for a problem that doesn't exist in the Vite pipeline.

+## Context
+
+The monorepo has grown from 3 published TS packages (core, theming, ui) to include a Rust NAPI extraction crate, a Vite plugin, a runtime shim, and a showcase app. The root `package.json` scripts were written for the original 3-package era and never updated. The build dependency graph is:
+
+```
+extract (Rust/NAPI) ─────────────────────┐
+                                          ├──→ vite-plugin

+
+The showcase app depends on everything (vite-plugin + core + theming + runtime) and serves as the integration smoke test.

+Two packages (vite-plugin, runtime) reference `tsdown` in their build scripts but have no `tsdown.config.ts`, meaning they silently use tsdown defaults instead of the shared base config.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Single command (`bun run verify`) that validates the entire project from scratch
+- Granular build commands for common workflows (e.g., "just rebuild the Rust crate")
+- Clean command that wipes all artifacts to a known-good state
+- Fix missing tsdown configs for vite-plugin and runtime
+- Encode the build DAG explicitly so no tribal knowledge is needed
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Adding turbo, nx, or any task orchestration tool (bun scripts are sufficient for this repo size)
+- CI/CD pipeline (separate concern, this is local developer workflow)
+- Watch mode / dev mode coordination (existing `vite dev` in showcase handles this)
+- Publishing/release automation
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Flat script namespace with colon-separated grouping
+
+Scripts use `verb:scope` naming: `build:extract`, `build:ts`, `build:all`, `test:canary`, `test:showcase`.
+
+**Why over alternatives:**
+- Nested scripts (turbo pipeline) — rejected per bun-workspace spec, no orchestration tools
+- Individual `bun run --filter` calls — too verbose for common operations, doesn't encode ordering
+- Makefile — adds another tool; bun scripts are sufficient and colocated with the project
+
+### Decision 2: Sequential `&&` chains for build ordering, not parallel
+
+`build:all` runs stages sequentially: `build:extract && build:ts`. Within `build:ts`, packages run in dependency order via `--filter` chains.
+
+**Why not parallel:** The DAG has real dependencies — vite-plugin imports from core and extract. Parallel builds would race. Bun's `--filter` doesn't support topological ordering. The total build time is dominated by the Rust crate (~15s release), so parallelizing TS builds (~1s each) saves negligible time.
+
+### Decision 3: `verify` replaces the existing `verify` script
+
+The current `verify` only does `compile && check` (typecheck + biome). The new `verify` runs the full pipeline: `clean && build:all && test && compile && check`. This is a breaking change to the script's behavior but aligns with what "verify" should mean.
+
+**Why not a new name:** `verify` IS the right name. Partial verification is worse than no verification — it gives false confidence. The old behavior is covered by `compile` and `check` individually.
+
+### Decision 4: Showcase build as integration smoke test
+
+`test:showcase` runs `bun run --filter './packages/showcase' build`. If the showcase app builds, the entire extraction pipeline is working end-to-end: Rust crate → Vite plugin → theme evaluation → CSS extraction → React components.
+
+**Why not a dedicated integration test:** The showcase app IS the integration test. It exercises the real consumer API path. A separate integration test would be a weaker copy of what showcase already validates.
+
+### Decision 5: tsdown configs for vite-plugin and runtime use shared base
+
+Both packages get a `tsdown.config.ts` importing `createConfig()` from the base. Vite-plugin overrides `platform: 'node'` since it runs in Vite's Node process, not the browser.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk] `verify` takes ~20-30s** → Acceptable for a "is everything green" check. Granular scripts (`test:canary`, `compile`) exist for faster feedback loops.
+- **[Risk] Sequential build is slower than necessary** → At current repo size (8 packages), the difference is ~2-3s. Revisit if package count grows significantly.
+- **[Risk] `clean` before `verify` means full rebuild every time** → This is intentional. `verify` is the "I need to be sure" command. For iterative work, use granular scripts.
+- **[Risk] Breaking `verify` behavior** → Low impact since the old behavior was incomplete and rarely used as-is.

+## Why
+
+Every session rediscovers the build order manually — which packages need rebuilding after a Rust change, whether the `.node` binary is stale, what order TS packages must compile in. This burns context tokens and developer time on mechanical steps instead of design work. The root `package.json` only builds core/theming/ui, omitting the extraction pipeline (Rust crate, vite-plugin, runtime) entirely. There is no clean command, no single verification command, and no way to go from "I changed something" to "everything is green" without tribal knowledge.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Add build scripts for the full dependency DAG: extract (Rust) → core → theming → runtime → vite-plugin → ui
+- Add `build:all` that executes the complete DAG in correct order
+- Add `build:extract` for rebuilding just the Rust crate (the most common "stale artifact" problem)
+- Add `clean` to wipe all build artifacts (dist/, target/, .node binaries)
+- Replace the existing `verify` script with a comprehensive pipeline: build → test → typecheck → lint
+- Add `test:canary` for running just the extraction snapshot test
+- Add `test:showcase` for building the showcase app as an integration smoke test
+- **BREAKING**: `verify` changes from `compile && check` to the full build+test+typecheck+lint pipeline
+- Ensure vite-plugin and runtime have correct tsdown configs (currently missing)
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `build-orchestration`: Encodes the full monorepo build DAG in root package.json scripts, including Rust NAPI builds, TS package ordering, and verification pipeline
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `bun-workspace`: The "no more than 6 scripts" constraint needs relaxing — the extraction pipeline introduces legitimate build stages that don't exist in a pure-TS monorepo. Script count expands to ~10-12 covering: build, build:extract, build:ts, build:all, test, test:canary, test:showcase, clean, compile, verify, check, check:fix
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Root package.json**: Scripts section rewritten
+- **packages/vite-plugin/**: Needs tsdown.config.ts added
+- **packages/runtime/**: Needs tsdown.config.ts added (if missing)
+- **Developer workflow**: `bun run verify` becomes the single command for full validation
+- **AI sessions**: Eliminates the build-order rediscovery loop that burns context

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Full build DAG in root scripts
+The root `package.json` SHALL contain scripts that encode the complete build dependency graph. A developer SHALL be able to build the entire project from a clean state with a single command.
+
+#### Scenario: Build all from clean state
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run build:all` from the repository root
+- **THEN** the Rust extraction crate is built first (napi build)
+- **THEN** TypeScript packages are built in dependency order: core → theming → runtime → vite-plugin → ui
+- **THEN** all `dist/` directories contain current build artifacts
+
+#### Scenario: Build only the Rust crate
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run build:extract` from the repository root
+- **THEN** only `packages/extract` is built via `napi build --platform --release`
+- **THEN** the `.node` binary is updated in `packages/extract/`
+
+#### Scenario: Build only TypeScript packages
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run build:ts` from the repository root
+- **THEN** TypeScript packages are built in dependency order: core → theming → runtime → vite-plugin → ui
+- **THEN** the Rust crate is NOT rebuilt
+
+### Requirement: Clean command
+The root `package.json` SHALL contain a `clean` script that removes all build artifacts, returning the repo to a pre-build state.
+
+#### Scenario: Clean all artifacts
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run clean` from the repository root
+- **THEN** all `packages/*/dist/` directories are removed
+- **THEN** `packages/extract/target/` (Rust build cache) is removed
+- **THEN** no source files or configuration files are affected
+
+### Requirement: Full verification pipeline
+The root `package.json` SHALL contain a `verify` script that validates the entire project: build, test, typecheck, and lint.
+
+#### Scenario: Full verification from clean state
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify` from the repository root
+- **THEN** all packages are built in correct order (build:all)
+- **THEN** all tests pass (bun test)
+- **THEN** type checking passes (tsc --noEmit)
+- **THEN** linting passes (biome check)
+
+#### Scenario: Verification catches stale artifacts
+- **WHEN** a developer modifies Rust source in `packages/extract/src/`
+- **THEN** running `bun run verify` rebuilds the Rust crate before running tests
+- **THEN** tests run against the updated `.node` binary
+
+### Requirement: Granular test commands
+The root `package.json` SHALL contain scoped test scripts for common verification workflows.
+
+#### Scenario: Run only the canary extraction test
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run test:canary` from the repository root
+- **THEN** only `packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts` executes
+- **THEN** other test files are not discovered or run
+
+#### Scenario: Showcase app as integration smoke test
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run test:showcase` from the repository root
+- **THEN** the showcase app's Vite build runs (`vite build`)
+- **THEN** a successful build confirms the full extraction pipeline is operational
+
+### Requirement: Missing tsdown configs
+Every TypeScript package with `tsdown` in its build script SHALL have a `tsdown.config.ts` that extends the shared base config.
+
+#### Scenario: vite-plugin has tsdown config
+- **WHEN** examining `packages/vite-plugin/tsdown.config.ts`
+- **THEN** it imports `createConfig` from the shared base
+- **THEN** it overrides `platform: 'node'` (vite plugins run in Node)
+
+#### Scenario: runtime has tsdown config
+- **WHEN** examining `packages/runtime/tsdown.config.ts`
+- **THEN** it imports `createConfig` from the shared base
+- **THEN** it uses the default configuration (no overrides needed)

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Simplified root scripts
+The root `package.json` SHALL contain scripts organized by verb:scope naming convention. The script set SHALL cover: build (granular + all), test (granular + all), type-check, lint, format, clean, and verify. Script commands SHALL use `bun` (not yarn, npx, or nx).
+
+#### Scenario: Root script inventory
+- **WHEN** examining root `package.json` scripts
+- **THEN** each script uses `bun run`, `bun test`, `tsc`, or `biome` — no references to yarn, npx, nx, lerna, or jest
+- **THEN** build scripts include: `build`, `build:extract`, `build:ts`, `build:all`
+- **THEN** test scripts include: `test`, `test:canary`, `test:showcase`
+- **THEN** utility scripts include: `clean`, `verify`, `compile`, `check`, `check:fix`

+## Context
+
+The showcase app gap discovery revealed two API gaps that block real consumers. The smoke test hid these by using test fixtures and inline plugins. A production-ready consumer API needs zero workarounds.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- `animusExtract()` with zero options works for the default case
+- Config serialization happens automatically from `@animus-ui/core`
+- Theme evaluation happens inside the plugin during `buildStart`
+- Existing options remain as escape hatches for non-standard setups
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Removing the `theme: string | { scales, variables }` options (kept for backward compat)
+- Changing the Rust NAPI interface (it still receives JSON strings)
+- Fixing the Emotion type dependency in `@animus-ui/theming`
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Export serialized config from @animus-ui/core
+
+**Decision:** Add a `getExtractConfig()` function to `@animus-ui/core`'s public API that returns `{ propConfig: string, groupRegistry: string }` — the pre-serialized JSON strings the Rust pipeline expects.
+
+**Rationale:** The plugin needs this data but shouldn't know about `PropRegistry`, `GroupRegistry`, or transform function names. `getExtractConfig()` encapsulates the serialization logic (currently in `config-serializer.ts`) behind a simple function call. The plugin just calls `getExtractConfig()` and passes the result to `analyzeProject`.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Exporting `propRegistry`/`groupRegistry` raw and letting the plugin serialize them. Rejected because serialization requires knowledge of transform function name mapping, which is core's domain.
+
+### 2. Plugin auto-imports config at buildStart
+
+**Decision:** In `buildStart`, if no `config`/`groupRegistry` options are provided, the plugin calls:
+```ts
+const { getExtractConfig } = await import('@animus-ui/core');
+const { propConfig, groupRegistry } = getExtractConfig();
+```
+
+This uses dynamic `import()` so it works in both CJS and ESM contexts. `@animus-ui/core` is already a declared dependency of the plugin (fixed in GAP 1).
+
+### 3. Theme evaluation via themePath option
+
+**Decision:** Add `themePath?: string` to `AnimusExtractOptions`. In `buildStart`:
+1. If `themePath` is provided, use it
+2. If not, auto-detect by checking: `src/theme.ts`, `src/theme.js`, `theme.ts`, `theme.js` (relative to `rootDir`)
+3. If found, evaluate the theme module. In build mode, use a Bun/Node dynamic `import()` with the resolved absolute path. In dev mode, use `ssrLoadModule` if available.
+4. Pass the evaluated theme to `evaluateTheme`'s internal logic (extract `_variables`, flatten scales)
+5. If no theme file found and no `theme` option provided, use `'{}'` (empty theme)
+
+**Constraint:** Theme modules often import from `@animus-ui/theming`, which imports from `@animus-ui/core`, which imports from `@emotion/*`. Dynamic `import()` of the theme file will work if all deps are resolvable — which they are in a workspace. For published packages, the consumer installs these deps anyway.
+
+### 4. Keep escape hatches
+
+The existing options remain:
+- `theme: string` — pre-serialized JSON (no variable emission)
+- `theme: { scales, variables }` — pre-evaluated (bypass internal eval)
+- `config: string` — pre-serialized prop config (bypass auto-import)
+- `groupRegistry: string` — pre-serialized group registry
+
+These cover non-standard setups where auto-detection doesn't work.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Dynamic import() of theme module]** → Theme module side effects run during build. If the theme module has heavy side effects (font loading, network calls), this adds build-time cost. Mitigation: document that theme modules should be pure computation.
+- **[Auto-detection may find wrong file]** → If `src/theme.ts` exists but isn't the Animus theme, the plugin will try to evaluate it and fail confusingly. Mitigation: validate that the evaluated module has the expected shape (`_variables`, `_tokens`), and fall back to empty theme with a warning if not.
+- **[@animus-ui/core must be installed]** → The plugin dynamically imports from `@animus-ui/core` at build time. If the package isn't installed, the import fails. Mitigation: `@animus-ui/core` is already a dependency of the plugin (GAP 1 fix).

+## Why
+
+Building a showcase app revealed that the Vite plugin's consumer API requires workarounds that a real developer would never discover. Two blocking gaps prevent the "happy path":
+
+1. **Config serialization requires private internals.** The Rust pipeline needs serialized `propRegistry` and `groupRegistry`. These are `#private` fields on `AnimusConfig`. The only way to access them is importing from source (`@animus-ui/core/src/config`) and manually spreading group objects — which is what the smoke test does via a test fixture subprocess. No public API exists.
+
+2. **Theme evaluation requires plugin internals.** `evaluateTheme` needs `ssrLoadModule`, which is only available inside Vite's dev server or plugin hooks. A consumer writing `vite.config.ts` has no access to this. The `{ scales, variables }` option works but forces the consumer to figure out HOW to evaluate their theme module — there's no documented, clean path.
+
+The ideal consumer experience is:
+
+```ts
+import { animusExtract } from '@animus-ui/vite-plugin';
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [animusExtract()]
+});
+```
+
+Zero configuration. The plugin auto-detects the theme, serializes config from `@animus-ui/core`, and handles everything internally.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **`@animus-ui/core` exports config data publicly**: Export `propRegistry` and `groupRegistry` (or a convenience function `getSerializedConfig()`) from the main index. This gives the plugin (and any consumer) access to the prop→CSS property→scale mapping.
+- **Plugin auto-serializes config**: `animusExtract` imports from `@animus-ui/core` at `buildStart` and serializes config automatically. No `config` or `groupRegistry` options needed for default usage.
+- **Plugin evaluates theme internally**: Add `themePath?: string` option. During `buildStart`, use Vite's `this.resolve()` + dynamic `import()` (or `ssrLoadModule` when available) to evaluate the theme module and extract both flattened scales and variable CSS. The `theme: string | { scales, variables }` options remain as escape hatches.
+- **Auto-detection of theme path**: If no `themePath` is provided, scan for `theme.ts`, `theme.js`, `src/theme.ts`, `src/theme.js` and use the first one found.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+_None — this is an API improvement on existing capabilities._
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Plugin factory accepts `themePath` option and auto-detects config, theme, and group registry without consumer-provided serialization.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/core/src/index.ts`**: Export `propRegistry` and `groupRegistry` (or accessor functions)
+- **`packages/core/src/config.ts`**: Make registry data accessible without `#private`
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`**: Auto-import config from `@animus-ui/core`, add `themePath` with auto-detection, evaluate theme in `buildStart`
+- **`packages/showcase/vite.config.ts`**: Simplify to near-zero config
+- **Developer experience**: `animusExtract()` with zero options works out of the box

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Plugin factory function
+The Vite plugin SHALL be exported as `animusExtract(options?) -> Plugin` from `@animus-ui/vite-plugin`. When called with NO options, the plugin SHALL auto-detect the theme file, auto-import prop config from `@animus-ui/core`, and function without any consumer-provided serialization.
+
+#### Scenario: Zero-config usage
+- **WHEN** `animusExtract()` is called with no options and `src/theme.ts` exists in the project
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL auto-detect the theme, evaluate it, serialize config from `@animus-ui/core`, and perform extraction with CSS variable emission
+
+#### Scenario: Explicit theme path
+- **WHEN** `animusExtract({ themePath: './design/theme.ts' })` is called
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL evaluate the specified theme file instead of auto-detecting
+
+#### Scenario: Auto-config from @animus-ui/core
+- **WHEN** no `config` or `groupRegistry` options are provided
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL dynamically import `@animus-ui/core` and call `getExtractConfig()` to obtain serialized prop config and group registry
+
+#### Scenario: Legacy pre-serialized theme (backward compatible)
+- **WHEN** `animusExtract({ theme: '{"colors.primary": "#6366f1"}' })` is called with a JSON string
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL use it directly with no theme evaluation or variable emission
+
+#### Scenario: Pre-evaluated theme (backward compatible)
+- **WHEN** `animusExtract({ theme: { scales: '...', variables: '...' } })` is called
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL use the provided data directly without theme evaluation
+
+#### Scenario: Theme auto-detection priority
+- **WHEN** no `themePath` or `theme` option is provided
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL check for theme files in order: `src/theme.ts`, `src/theme.js`, `theme.ts`, `theme.js` relative to the project root, and use the first one found
+
+#### Scenario: No theme found
+- **WHEN** no theme file is found and no `theme`/`themePath` option is provided
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL use an empty theme `'{}'` and emit no CSS variable definitions
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Public extract config API
+`@animus-ui/core` SHALL export a `getExtractConfig()` function that returns `{ propConfig: string, groupRegistry: string }` — the serialized JSON strings the extraction pipeline requires.
+
+#### Scenario: Config matches internal registries
+- **WHEN** `getExtractConfig()` is called
+- **THEN** the returned `propConfig` SHALL contain the same prop→CSS property→scale→transform mappings that the runtime builder chain uses
+
+#### Scenario: Stable across imports
+- **WHEN** `getExtractConfig()` is called multiple times
+- **THEN** the returned strings SHALL be identical (deterministic serialization)

+## Context
+
+The Animus core builder has been the stable, working foundation of the project since its inception. The builder chain (Animus.ts), extension system (AnimusExtended.ts), and prop configuration (AnimusConfig.ts + config.ts) are proven in production via the docs site. However, no formal specification exists — the behavior is defined only by the implementation and inline CLAUDE.md documentation.
+
+With static CSS extraction via CSS @layer on the roadmap, the extraction compiler needs a formal contract to compile against. These specs serve as that contract. They also serve as the canonical reference for any future AI-assisted work on the codebase.
+
+Current state:
+- `packages/core/src/Animus.ts` — 347 lines, 6 classes, backwards inheritance chain
+- `packages/core/src/AnimusExtended.ts` — 417 lines, 6 classes, flexible ordering mirror
+- `packages/core/src/AnimusConfig.ts` — entry point with `addGroup()` and `build()`
+- `packages/core/src/config.ts` — 13 prop groups (394 lines), the default `animus` instance
+- `packages/core/src/styles/` — createStylist, createParser, createPropertyStyle, responsive
+- All of the above is working and stable. No code changes are proposed.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Create canonical, testable specifications for the three core subsystems
+- Define cascade ordering guarantees that the extraction layer can depend on
+- Specify extension ordering semantics (BEM-style source order within shared @layers)
+- Establish the prop resolution pipeline as a formal contract (scale lookup → transform → output)
+- Provide spec-level scenarios that map to existing and potential test cases
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing any existing behavior
+- Specifying the extraction system (that's a separate change)
+- Specifying the theming system (separate capability, separate spec)
+- Specifying the UI components package (separate capability)
+- Performance optimization of the builder
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Three capability specs, not one monolithic spec
+The builder is decomposed into three capabilities: `builder-chain` (the type-state machine), `extension-system` (AnimusExtended), and `prop-system` (config + parser pipeline). This maps to the actual separation of concerns in the codebase and allows independent evolution.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Single `core-builder` spec covering everything. Rejected because it would be too large and mix concerns that evolve at different rates.
+
+### Decision 2: Specs describe observable behavior, not implementation
+The specs define WHAT the system does (cascade ordering, type narrowing, prop resolution) not HOW it does it (backwards inheritance, lodash merge). This allows the implementation to change (e.g., replacing lodash.merge with a custom merge, or replacing the class hierarchy with a different pattern) without invalidating the spec.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Specifying internal implementation details. Rejected because it would over-constrain the extraction work, which may need to reimplement the builder for compile-time execution.
+
+### Decision 3: Extension ordering specified as source-order within shared @layers
+The extension spec defines that extended component rules appear AFTER parent rules within the SAME CSS @layer. This matches the shared-layer architecture where all components inject into the same set of layers (base, variants, states, system, custom) rather than per-component layer namespaces.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Per-component nested layers (`@layer btn.base`, `@layer primary-btn.base`). Rejected because it creates N*5 layers for N components, adds unnecessary complexity, and doesn't match how Tailwind v4 and Panda CSS successfully use shared layers.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- [Risk] Specs may not cover edge cases discovered during extraction work → Mitigation: specs are living documents; update them as edge cases surface
+- [Risk] Specifying observable behavior without implementation detail may leave ambiguity → Mitigation: scenarios are concrete and testable; ambiguity surfaces as failing test cases
+- [Risk] The shared-layer ordering guarantee depends on deterministic topological sort of extension dependencies → Mitigation: this is a well-solved algorithmic problem; the dependency graph is available from the builder chain structure

+## Why
+
+The Animus core builder (Animus, AnimusExtended, AnimusConfig) is the proven, working heart of the project — but it has no canonical specification. As we move toward static CSS extraction with CSS @layer integration, we need authoritative specs that define the builder's behavioral contracts, cascade ordering guarantees, and extension semantics. Without these, the extraction layer has no formal contract to compile against.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Create canonical specifications for the three core builder subsystems
+- Document the type-state machine contract (method ordering, progressive type accumulation)
+- Define the cascade ordering guarantees that extraction depends on
+- Specify the extension mechanism and its ordering semantics
+- Specify the prop system configuration architecture (groups, scales, transforms)
+- No code changes — this is documentation of existing, working behavior
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `builder-chain`: The type-state machine builder API — method ordering, class hierarchy, terminal methods (.asElement/.asComponent/.build), and the backwards inheritance pattern that enforces progressive revelation
+- `extension-system`: The AnimusExtended escape hatch — flexible method ordering with merge semantics, how extensions thread into the cascade, and the ordering guarantee (extensions emit after parents)
+- `prop-system`: The prop configuration architecture — AnimusConfig, groups, scales, transforms, the parser pipeline (createParser → createPropertyStyle → lookupScaleValue), and responsive value handling
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/core/src/Animus.ts` — specified, not modified
+- `packages/core/src/AnimusExtended.ts` — specified, not modified
+- `packages/core/src/AnimusConfig.ts` — specified, not modified
+- `packages/core/src/config.ts` — prop group definitions specified
+- `packages/core/src/styles/` — parser/stylist pipeline specified
+- These specs become the formal contract for the upcoming static extraction work

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Type-state machine enforces method ordering
+The builder SHALL enforce a fixed method call ordering through a backwards inheritance chain: `Animus → AnimusWithBase → AnimusWithVariants → AnimusWithStates → AnimusWithSystem → AnimusWithAll`. Each class in the chain SHALL only expose the method(s) appropriate to its stage. The TypeScript type system SHALL prevent calling methods out of order at compile time.
+
+#### Scenario: Valid chain produces typed component
+- **WHEN** a developer writes `animus.styles({...}).variant({...}).states({...}).groups({...}).props({...}).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the chain compiles without error and produces a fully-typed React component whose prop API is computed from the accumulated type parameters
+
+#### Scenario: Invalid ordering is a compile error
+- **WHEN** a developer writes `animus.variant({...}).styles({...})`
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL emit a type error because `.variant()` is not exposed on the `Animus` class (only `.styles()` is available at the entry point)
+
+#### Scenario: Methods are optional with skip-through
+- **WHEN** a developer writes `animus.styles({...}).asElement('div')` (skipping variant, states, groups, props)
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL compile successfully because each class inherits terminal methods from AnimusWithAll through the backwards inheritance chain
+
+### Requirement: Progressive type accumulation via 8 generic parameters
+The builder chain SHALL track all configuration through 8 generic type parameters: PropRegistry, GroupRegistry, BaseParser, BaseStyles, Variants, States, ActiveGroups, and CustomProps. Each method call SHALL return a new class instance with updated type parameters, accumulating the configuration progressively.
+
+#### Scenario: Type parameters carry style values
+- **WHEN** `.styles({ padding: 10 })` is called
+- **THEN** the BaseStyles type parameter SHALL contain the literal type `{ padding: 10 }`, not the widened type `{ padding: number }`
+
+#### Scenario: Variant types accumulate across multiple calls
+- **WHEN** `.variant({ prop: 'size', variants: { sm: {...}, lg: {...} } })` is called followed by `.variant({ prop: 'intent', variants: { primary: {...} } })`
+- **THEN** the Variants type parameter SHALL be the intersection of both variant configs, and the final component SHALL accept both `size` and `intent` props
+
+### Requirement: Cascade ordering mirrors CSS specificity layers
+The builder method order SHALL define the cascade priority of styles at runtime. Styles from later methods override styles from earlier methods when they target the same CSS property. The execution order SHALL be: base styles → variant styles → state styles → system props → custom props.
+
+#### Scenario: State styles override variant styles
+- **WHEN** a component has `.variant({ variants: { primary: { opacity: 1 } } }).states({ disabled: { opacity: 0.6 } })`
+- **AND** the component is rendered with `variant="primary" disabled`
+- **THEN** the computed opacity SHALL be `0.6` because state styles (later in cascade) override variant styles
+
+#### Scenario: System props override all declarative styles
+- **WHEN** a component has `.styles({ padding: 10 }).groups({ space: true })` and is rendered with `p={20}`
+- **THEN** the computed padding SHALL be `20` because system props (later in cascade) override base styles
+
+### Requirement: Terminal methods materialize configuration into components
+The builder SHALL provide three terminal methods: `.asElement(tag)`, `.asComponent(Component)`, and `.build()`. Terminals SHALL compile the accumulated configuration into a usable output. `.asElement()` and `.asComponent()` produce React components. `.build()` produces the raw styling function.
+
+#### Scenario: asElement creates a styled HTML element
+- **WHEN** `.asElement('button')` is called
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be a React component that renders a `<button>` element with styles applied via Emotion's `styled()`, with `shouldForwardProp` filtering system props from DOM attributes
+
+#### Scenario: asComponent wraps an existing component
+- **WHEN** `.asComponent(MyComponent)` is called where MyComponent accepts `className`
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be a React component that wraps MyComponent with styles applied via `className`, filtering system props via `shouldForwardProp`
+
+#### Scenario: Terminal components carry extend()
+- **WHEN** `.asElement('button')` produces a component `Button`
+- **THEN** `Button.extend()` SHALL be a method that returns an AnimusExtended instance seeded with all of Button's accumulated configuration
+
+#### Scenario: build() produces a raw style function
+- **WHEN** `.build()` is called
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be a function `(props) => CSSObject` that computes styles from the full cascade, AND the function SHALL have an `.extend()` method attached
+
+### Requirement: Backwards inheritance enables progressive revelation
+The class hierarchy SHALL use backwards inheritance where the entry point class (Animus) inherits from ALL subsequent classes. This pattern SHALL ensure that the entry point has access to all terminal methods through inheritance, while TypeScript's type narrowing restricts which methods are visible at each stage.
+
+#### Scenario: Animus class inherits terminal methods
+- **WHEN** the Animus class is instantiated
+- **THEN** it SHALL have `.asElement()`, `.build()`, and `.extend()` available through its prototype chain (inherited from AnimusWithAll), even though TypeScript's type system only exposes `.styles()` at the entry point type
+
+#### Scenario: Each method returns a new instance
+- **WHEN** any builder method is called (e.g., `.styles({...})`)
+- **THEN** a NEW instance of the next class in the chain SHALL be returned, preserving immutability of the builder pattern

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: extend() provides flexible method ordering
+The AnimusExtended class hierarchy SHALL mirror the primary Animus chain but allow methods to be called in ANY order. Each method SHALL merge its configuration with existing configuration using `merge({}, existing, new)` (immutable merge), enabling additive modification of any cascade layer.
+
+#### Scenario: Styles can be added after states
+- **WHEN** `Button.extend().states({ loading: {...} }).styles({ cursor: 'wait' })` is called
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL compile successfully and the extended component SHALL have both the new state and the new base styles merged with the parent's configuration
+
+#### Scenario: Merge is immutable
+- **WHEN** `.variant({...})` is called on an AnimusExtended instance
+- **THEN** a NEW object SHALL be created via `merge({}, this.variants, { [prop]: options })`, preserving the parent instance's state
+
+### Requirement: Extension preserves parent configuration
+When `.extend()` is called on a terminal component, the returned AnimusExtended instance SHALL be seeded with ALL 8 configuration fields from the parent: propRegistry, groupRegistry, parser, baseStyles, variants, statesConfig, activeGroups, and custom.
+
+#### Scenario: Extended component inherits parent styles
+- **WHEN** `const Primary = Button.extend().styles({ bg: 'blue' }).asElement('button')` is created from a Button with `.styles({ padding: 10 })`
+- **THEN** Primary SHALL have BOTH `padding: 10` (from parent) AND `bg: 'blue'` (from extension) in its base styles, merged together
+
+#### Scenario: Extended component inherits parent variants
+- **WHEN** Button has `.variant({ prop: 'size', variants: { sm: {...}, lg: {...} } })` and Primary extends without adding variants
+- **THEN** Primary SHALL accept the `size` prop with the same `sm` and `lg` options as the parent
+
+### Requirement: Extension cascade ordering for CSS output
+When styles are extracted to CSS, extended component rules SHALL be emitted AFTER their parent's rules within the same @layer. This guarantees that extension rules override parent rules through CSS source order (same specificity, later wins) without requiring specificity escalation.
+
+#### Scenario: Extension base styles override parent base styles
+- **WHEN** Button has `.styles({ padding: 10 })` and PrimaryButton extends with `.styles({ padding: 16 })`
+- **AND** both are extracted to `@layer base`
+- **THEN** PrimaryButton's `padding: 16` rule SHALL appear AFTER Button's `padding: 10` rule within `@layer base`, causing the extension to win via source order
+
+#### Scenario: Deep extension chains maintain topological order
+- **WHEN** A extends nothing, B extends A, C extends B
+- **AND** all are extracted to `@layer base`
+- **THEN** the rule order within `@layer base` SHALL be: A's rules, then B's rules, then C's rules
+
+### Requirement: Extension supports multi-level chains
+The `.extend()` method SHALL be available on both primary chain terminals and extended chain terminals, enabling arbitrary depth of extension.
+
+#### Scenario: Chained extensions
+- **WHEN** `const C = B.extend().styles({...}).asElement('div')` where B was itself created via `A.extend().styles({...}).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** C SHALL carry the merged configuration of A + B + C, with C's rules winning on conflicts via merge semantics and cascade ordering

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: AnimusConfig registers named prop groups
+AnimusConfig SHALL provide an `addGroup(name, config)` method that registers a named group of prop definitions. Each group SHALL map prop shorthand names to CSS property configurations (property, properties, scale, transform). The `.build()` method SHALL produce an Animus instance with the full registry.
+
+#### Scenario: Adding a space group
+- **WHEN** `createAnimus().addGroup('space', { p: { property: 'padding', scale: 'space' }, m: { property: 'margin', scale: 'space' } })` is called
+- **THEN** the resulting Animus instance SHALL recognize `p` and `m` as system props that map to padding and margin respectively, with values resolved from the theme's `space` scale
+
+#### Scenario: Groups are selectively enabled
+- **WHEN** a component uses `.groups({ space: true, color: true })`
+- **THEN** only props from the `space` and `color` groups SHALL be available on the component's prop API, and props from other groups (e.g., `typography`) SHALL NOT be accepted
+
+### Requirement: Prop definitions support scale resolution
+Each prop definition SHALL support a `scale` field that references a theme scale name (e.g., `'colors'`, `'space'`, `'fontSizes'`). When a prop value is provided, the system SHALL look up the value in the corresponding theme scale via `lookupScaleValue(value, scale, theme)`.
+
+#### Scenario: String value resolved from theme scale
+- **WHEN** a prop `bg` has `scale: 'colors'` and the component receives `bg="primary"`
+- **THEN** the system SHALL resolve `theme.colors.primary` (which may be a CSS variable reference like `var(--color-primary)`) and use that as the CSS value
+
+#### Scenario: Value not in scale passes through
+- **WHEN** a prop `bg` has `scale: 'colors'` and the component receives `bg="#ff0000"`
+- **THEN** the system SHALL use `#ff0000` directly as the CSS value (passthrough for non-scale values)
+
+### Requirement: Prop definitions support transform functions
+Each prop definition SHALL support a `transform` field containing a function that converts prop values to CSS values. Transforms SHALL run AFTER scale resolution.
+
+#### Scenario: Size transform converts numbers
+- **WHEN** a prop `width` has `transform: size` and receives value `0.5`
+- **THEN** the transform SHALL convert `0.5` to `'50%'` (fractional numbers 0-1 become percentages)
+
+#### Scenario: Size transform handles pixels
+- **WHEN** a prop `width` has `transform: size` and receives value `100`
+- **THEN** the transform SHALL convert `100` to `'100px'` (numbers > 1 become pixel values)
+
+#### Scenario: Size transform passes strings through
+- **WHEN** a prop `width` has `transform: size` and receives value `'auto'`
+- **THEN** the transform SHALL return `'auto'` unchanged
+
+### Requirement: Props support multi-property mapping
+A single prop definition SHALL support mapping to multiple CSS properties via a `properties` array field. When a prop maps to multiple properties, the resolved value SHALL be applied to ALL listed properties.
+
+#### Scenario: px maps to paddingLeft and paddingRight
+- **WHEN** a prop `px` has `properties: ['paddingLeft', 'paddingRight']` and receives value `16`
+- **THEN** both `paddingLeft` and `paddingRight` SHALL be set to the resolved value
+
+### Requirement: Responsive value syntax
+Props SHALL support responsive values in two forms: array syntax and object syntax. Array syntax maps positionally to breakpoints `[default, xs, sm, md, lg, xl]`. Object syntax uses named keys `{ _: default, xs, sm, md, lg, xl }`. Both forms SHALL generate equivalent `@media` queries.
+
+#### Scenario: Array responsive syntax
+- **WHEN** a component receives `p={[8, 12, , 16]}` (note: sparse array with gap)
+- **THEN** the system SHALL generate: base `padding: 8`, `@media (min-width: xs) { padding: 12 }`, `@media (min-width: md) { padding: 16 }` — skipping the undefined sm breakpoint
+
+#### Scenario: Object responsive syntax
+- **WHEN** a component receives `p={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }}`
+- **THEN** the system SHALL generate: base `padding: 8`, `@media (min-width: sm) { padding: 16 }`
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive values in style definitions
+- **WHEN** `.styles({ padding: { _: '1rem', sm: '2rem' } })` is used in the builder chain
+- **THEN** the responsive breakpoints SHALL be generated at the base styles cascade layer
+
+### Requirement: Prop ordering respects CSS shorthand cascade
+The parser SHALL order prop evaluation so that shorthand properties are processed BEFORE their longhand equivalents. This ensures that longhand values override shorthand values in the generated CSS output, matching native CSS cascade behavior.
+
+#### Scenario: Shorthand before longhand
+- **WHEN** a component receives both `p={8}` (shorthand for all padding) and `pt={16}` (longhand for padding-top)
+- **THEN** `padding: 8` SHALL be emitted before `padding-top: 16` in the CSS output, ensuring padding-top overrides the shorthand
+
+### Requirement: Prop forwarding filters system props from DOM
+Terminal methods `.asElement()` and `.asComponent()` SHALL configure `shouldForwardProp` to consume system props (preventing them from being forwarded to the DOM element) while forwarding valid HTML attributes. A prop SHALL be forwarded only if it passes `@emotion/is-prop-valid` AND is not in the prop registry.
+
+#### Scenario: System prop consumed
+- **WHEN** `<Box p={16} />` is rendered where `p` is a system prop
+- **THEN** the `p` attribute SHALL NOT appear on the DOM element, but `padding: 16px` SHALL be applied via CSS
+
+#### Scenario: HTML attribute forwarded
+- **WHEN** `<Box onClick={fn} id="main" />` is rendered
+- **THEN** both `onClick` and `id` SHALL be forwarded to the DOM element as they are valid HTML attributes not in the prop registry

+## Why
+
+Dev-mode extraction works (confirmed in smoke test), but `handleHotUpdate` sends `server.ws.send({ type: 'full-reload' })` — a full page reload on every file save. This loses React state, causes visible flicker, and becomes unusable as component count grows. Vite natively supports CSS-only hot replacement without page reload — we just need to use it.
+
+Additionally, full re-analysis via `analyzeProject` on every file change is wasteful. Most files haven't changed — only the saved file's source is new. A content-hash cache would skip unchanged files, reducing HMR latency from O(all files) to O(1 file).
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **CSS module invalidation instead of full reload**: Replace `server.ws.send({ type: 'full-reload' })` with `server.moduleGraph.invalidateModule(cssModule)` + Vite's native CSS HMR update mechanism. The page stays loaded, React state is preserved, only the stylesheet swaps.
+- **Content-hash file cache**: Store a `Map<path, contentHash>` in the plugin closure. On `handleHotUpdate`, only re-read files whose hash changed. Pass the same file entries to `analyzeProject` but skip re-reading unchanged files from disk.
+- **Target latency**: <50ms for single-file HMR on a 100-file project.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `dev-mode-extraction`: CSS updates are hot-replaced without page reload. File content hashing skips unchanged files during re-analysis.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: `handleHotUpdate` uses CSS module invalidation instead of full-reload.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`**: handleHotUpdate changes, content-hash cache
+- **`packages/smoke-test/vite.config.ts`**: Same changes to inline plugin
+- **Developer experience**: Style changes reflect instantly without losing React state

+## Why
+
+The chain walker hardcodes `"animus"` as the only valid root identifier for primary builder chains (`chain_walker.rs:161`). Custom builder instances created via `createAnimus().addGroup(...).build()` and bound to any other name (e.g., `custom`, `ds`, `ui`) are silently ignored by extraction — no bail, no warning, just invisible.
+
+This breaks the "design your own language" story. `createAnimus()` is a first-class API for defining custom prop vocabularies, but the extraction pipeline can't see them.
+
+The fix: the chain PATTERN (recognized methods + terminal) is sufficient to identify a builder chain. The root identifier name is irrelevant. Any chain that walks backwards from `.asElement()` through recognized chain methods to ANY identifier is a valid primary chain.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Remove `"animus"` name check in chain walker**: Accept any root identifier as a valid primary chain root when the chain contains recognized chain methods and a valid terminal.
+- **Distinguish primary vs extension by method pattern, not root name**: A chain with `.extend()` is an extension chain (existing behavior). A chain WITHOUT `.extend()` is a primary chain (currently requires root == `"animus"`, changed to accept any root).
+- **Showcase validation**: The custom vocabulary components in the showcase should extract to static CSS after this change.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+_None — this enables existing extraction for a pattern the runtime already supports._
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: Chain walker accepts any root identifier for primary chains, not just `"animus"`.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/extract/src/chain_walker.rs`**: Remove `"animus"` root name check (~5 lines)
+- **`packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts`**: Add test for custom-root chain extraction
+- **`packages/showcase/`**: Custom vocabulary components extract to static CSS, eliminating Emotion runtime fallback

+## Context
+
+The Vite plugin (`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`) currently gates extraction behind `if (!isProd) return` at line 285 of `buildStart`. In dev mode, it evaluates theme/config but skips file discovery, `analyzeProject`, and source transformation. The virtual CSS module serves only theme variable CSS — no component styles.
+
+The plugin already has the full extraction pipeline implemented for production:
+- `buildStart`: config resolution (bun subprocess), theme evaluation (bun subprocess), file discovery, package resolution, `analyzeProject` (Rust NAPI)
+- `transform`: per-file source replacement using the stored manifest
+- `load`: serves the virtual CSS module (`virtual:animus/styles.css`)
+
+The Rust `analyzeProject` function in `project_analyzer.rs` runs a 7-phase pipeline: parse all files → resolve imports → build extension provenance → topological sort → evaluate chains + JSX scan + reconcile → generate replacements → build manifest. This is inherently project-wide due to cross-file import resolution and extension chain ordering.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Dev mode runs the same extraction pipeline as production (no behavioral divergence)
+- Single-file style changes update CSS without React state loss (CSS-only HMR)
+- Content-hash file cache minimizes redundant disk I/O during HMR
+- Config/theme file changes trigger full re-extraction (geological reset)
+- The `configPath` option works identically in dev and prod
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Rust-level incremental analysis (re-parse only changed files in Rust). The JS caching layer + OXC's ~1ms/file parse speed makes this unnecessary for v1.
+- Per-file `extract()` NAPI function. The project-level `analyzeProject` is the only path that handles extensions, import resolution, and reconciliation.
+- Distinguishing "style-only" vs "JSX" changes for surgical HMR. v1 always does CSS module invalidation + default Vite module HMR. React Fast Refresh preserves state when the component tree is unchanged.
+- Dev-mode dead variant elimination. Reconciliation runs but elimination is most valuable for production bundle size.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Remove the `isProd` gate entirely — dev and prod share one pipeline
+
+**Why not a separate dev-mode-only extraction path?**
+
+The production pipeline (`buildStart` → `analyzeProject` → `transform` → `load`) handles cross-file extensions, package resolution, and reconciliation. Building a parallel dev-mode pipeline that handles even a subset of these features would duplicate logic and diverge over time. The simpler approach: remove the gate, let the same code run in both modes, and add HMR hooks for the dev-specific concern (incremental updates).
+
+**Alternative considered:** Per-file `extract()` in dev, `analyzeProject` in prod. Rejected because `extract()` cannot resolve cross-file extension chains (the showcase uses `SmallButton = Button.extend()...` across files), cannot do reconciliation, and would produce different CSS output than production — defeating the purpose of dev-mode extraction.
+
+### 2. Full `analyzeProject` on every HMR event (with JS-level file caching)
+
+The HMR handler re-runs `analyzeProject` with the full file entries array on every relevant file change. A JS `Map<path, { hash, source }>` caches file contents — only the changed file is re-read from disk. All other entries use their cached source strings.
+
+**Why not Rust-level incremental analysis?**
+
+The Rust pipeline's phases (import resolution, topological sort, JSX scanning, reconciliation) all operate on the full project graph. Making these incremental requires significant Rust refactoring with subtle correctness risks (stale cross-references, missing transitive dependencies). OXC parses at ~1ms/file, so re-parsing 100 cached source strings costs ~100ms — acceptable for dev HMR where the alternative is a full page reload (~500ms+).
+
+**Performance budget:**
+- Disk I/O for 1 file: ~1ms
+- `analyzeProject` for 100 files (cached sources): ~100-200ms
+- Transform resolution (bun subprocess): ~50ms
+- CSS module invalidation: <1ms
+- Total: ~150-250ms per HMR cycle
+
+This is well under the perceived-lag threshold (~300ms) and dramatically faster than a full page reload. The 50ms target from the proposal was aspirational — 150-250ms is the realistic v1 target.
+
+### 3. `transform` hook runs in both dev and prod
+
+**Why this is mandatory:**
+
+Without source transformation, components render via Emotion's runtime (style injection into `<style>` tags). But the virtual CSS module contains extracted CSS wrapped in `@layer base { ... }`. CSS `@layer` has LOWER specificity than unlayered styles. Emotion's injected styles are unlayered → they override extracted styles → components get double-styled or show the wrong styles.
+
+By running the `transform` hook in dev, builder chains are replaced with `createComponent(...)` shim calls. Components use the extraction runtime (static class names) rather than Emotion. CSS comes entirely from the virtual module. No specificity conflicts.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Keep Emotion in dev, extraction in prod. Rejected due to the @layer specificity conflict and the principle that dev/prod rendering paths should be identical to prevent "works in dev, broken in prod" bugs.
+
+### 4. Three-tier temporal escalation in `handleHotUpdate`
+
+File changes are classified into three tiers based on what they affect:
+
+| Tier | Trigger | Action |
+|------|---------|--------|
+| **Heartbeat** | File saved, content hash unchanged | Return early — no work |
+| **Diurnal** | Component/style file changed | Update cache entry, re-run `analyzeProject`, invalidate CSS module |
+| **Geological** | Config file or theme file changed | Re-evaluate config/theme via bun subprocess, then full re-extraction |
+
+The `handleHotUpdate` hook detects which tier applies and escalates appropriately. Geological resets are rare (config/theme changes are infrequent) but must be handled to prevent stale extraction state.
+
+### 5. CSS module invalidation via `server.moduleGraph`
+
+When extraction produces new CSS:
+1. Look up the virtual CSS module: `server.moduleGraph.getModuleById(RESOLVED_CSS_ID)`
+2. Invalidate it: `server.moduleGraph.invalidateModule(cssModule)`
+3. The `load` hook will be re-invoked on next request, serving the updated CSS
+4. Vite's native CSS HMR sends the update to the client
+5. Client replaces `<style>` content — no JS re-execution, no React re-render for CSS-only changes
+
+We do NOT suppress default module invalidation for the changed file. Vite will also HMR the component module if its source changed. React Fast Refresh handles this gracefully — if the component tree structure is unchanged, state is preserved.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[150-250ms HMR latency]** → Full `analyzeProject` re-run is slower than per-file extraction would be. Mitigation: acceptable for dev (faster than full reload), and Rust-level incremental analysis can be added later as an optimization without changing the plugin's external behavior.
+
+**[Bun subprocess overhead on geological reset]** → Config/theme changes spawn `execSync('bun -e ...')`. Mitigation: geological resets are rare (config changes are infrequent). The subprocess overhead (~200ms) is amortized by the rarity of the event.
+
+**[Virtual CSS module size in dev]** → The virtual module contains ALL extracted CSS for the entire project. For large projects this could be several hundred KB. Mitigation: Vite serves dev assets unminified anyway. The browser parses CSS incrementally. This is a dev-only concern — production uses the optimized build.
+
+**[Transform hook in dev may slow module serving]** → The `transform` hook runs for every relevant module request. Mitigation: the hook is fast — it just calls `transformFile` (Rust NAPI) with the stored manifest. The actual extraction was already done at `buildStart`; transform just applies pre-computed replacements.
+
+**[File cache memory usage]** → Storing all file sources in a JS Map. Mitigation: for a 100-file project with ~50KB avg source, this is ~5MB — negligible for a dev server process.

+## Why
+
+The Vite plugin skips extraction entirely in dev mode (`if (!isProd) return` at buildStart). The showcase only works via `vite build` — `vite dev` serves theme CSS variables but no component styles. This means no live development workflow for extracted components.
+
+Three things need to happen:
+
+1. **Enable extraction in dev mode.** The same `analyzeProject` pipeline that runs at build time should run at dev server start, populating the virtual CSS module with component styles.
+
+2. **CSS-only HMR.** When a file changes, re-extract and update the virtual CSS module without a full page reload. Use `server.moduleGraph.invalidateModule()` + Vite's native CSS HMR. React state is preserved.
+
+3. **Content-hash file cache.** Only re-read changed files on HMR. Cache file entries by content hash. Pass the full array to `analyzeProject` but skip disk I/O for unchanged files. Target: <50ms single-file HMR on a 100-file project.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Remove `if (!isProd) return` guard in `buildStart` — run full extraction pipeline in both dev and prod
+- Add `configureServer` hook to store the Vite dev server reference
+- Add `handleHotUpdate` hook that re-runs extraction on file changes, invalidates the CSS virtual module, and returns it for CSS-only HMR
+- Add `Map<string, { hash: string; source: string }>` file cache in the plugin closure
+- The `configPath` option (added in showcase-hmr-cleanup) must work in dev mode too
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Dev mode runs full extraction. HMR uses CSS module invalidation instead of full reload. Content-hash caching skips unchanged files.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`**: `buildStart` runs in dev, new `configureServer` + `handleHotUpdate` hooks, file cache
+- **`packages/showcase/`**: `bun run dev` becomes a working development workflow
+- **Developer experience**: Edit a component → styles update instantly → React state preserved
+
+## Resolved Questions
+
+1. **`analyzeProject` vs per-file `extract`?** — `analyzeProject`. It's the only NAPI function that handles cross-file import resolution, extension chain provenance, topological sorting, and reconciliation. There is no viable per-file alternative. JS-level content-hash caching prevents redundant disk I/O; OXC re-parses source strings at ~1ms/file, making full re-analysis acceptable for dev.
+
+2. **Should the `transform` hook run in dev?** — Yes, mandatory. Without it, components render via Emotion at runtime while extracted CSS sits in a @layer-structured virtual module. Emotion inline styles (highest specificity) would fight @layer base (lowest specificity), producing unpredictable double-styling. Dev and prod must use the same rendering path: createComponent shim + extracted CSS.
+
+3. **`configPath` and module graph interaction?** — `configPath` is loaded via `execSync('bun -e ...')`, outside Vite's module graph entirely. The `handleHotUpdate` hook detects changes to the config or theme files and escalates to a "geological reset" — re-evaluating config/theme via subprocess, then running full re-extraction. Normal file changes use the incremental path (content-hash check → cached file entries → re-analysis).

+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Production-only extraction
+**Reason**: Replaced by "Dev and prod extraction parity". Extraction now runs in both modes.
+**Migration**: The `if (!isProd) return` guard in `buildStart` is removed. The `if (!isProd || !storedManifest)` guard in `transform` is replaced with `if (!storedManifest)`.
+
+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Two-phase build architecture
+The Vite plugin SHALL implement a two-phase build architecture: Phase 1 runs at `buildStart` to produce a UniverseManifest via full-codebase analysis, Phase 2 uses the manifest during per-file `transform` hooks. This architecture SHALL operate in BOTH dev and prod modes.
+
+#### Scenario: buildStart produces manifest
+- **WHEN** Vite calls `buildStart` in either dev or prod mode
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL: (1) evaluate the theme via bun subprocess, (2) serialize config and group registry, (3) discover all source files matching include/exclude patterns, (4) read all file sources, (5) call `analyze_project()` to produce the manifest, (6) store the manifest and its CSS in memory, (7) pre-resolve transform placeholders, (8) populate the file cache with content hashes (dev mode only)
+
+#### Scenario: transform uses manifest in both modes
+- **WHEN** a file is processed by the `transform` hook in either dev or prod mode
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL call `transform_file(code, id, manifestJson)` to produce transformed source, replacing builder chains with `createComponent` shim calls
+
+#### Scenario: Dev mode runs full extraction
+- **WHEN** Vite runs in development mode (`vite dev`)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL run the full extraction pipeline at server start, producing a manifest and populating the virtual CSS module with both theme variables AND component styles
+
+### Requirement: CSS-only HMR in dev mode
+The Vite plugin SHALL re-run `analyzeProject` when extractable files change during development, invalidate the virtual CSS module, and return BOTH the default affected modules AND the CSS module in the HMR array. This ensures the browser re-fetches updated CSS alongside the re-transformed component JS.
+
+#### Scenario: Style change triggers coordinated update
+- **WHEN** a developer saves a file containing Animus builder chains during `vite dev`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL re-read the changed file, update its cache entry, rebuild the file entries array, call `analyzeProject`, update the stored manifest, apply transform post-processing, and invalidate the virtual CSS module
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL return `[...modules, cssModule]` — the default affected modules PLUS the CSS virtual module
+- **THEN** Vite SHALL HMR both the component JS (re-transformed with updated manifest) and the CSS (updated rules)
+- **THEN** React Fast Refresh SHALL preserve component state when the component tree structure is unchanged
+
+#### Scenario: Content hash unchanged — no work
+- **WHEN** a file is saved but its content hash matches the cached hash
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL return an empty array from `handleHotUpdate`, suppressing unnecessary HMR
+
+#### Scenario: Non-extractable file change falls through
+- **WHEN** a changed file has no extension matching `.ts`, `.tsx`, `.js`, `.jsx` or matches an exclude pattern
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL not intercept the HMR event, falling through to Vite's default behavior
+
+#### Scenario: Config file change triggers geological reset
+- **WHEN** the changed file matches the resolved `configPath` option
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL re-evaluate config via bun subprocess, re-run full extraction, invalidate the CSS module, and return `[...modules, cssModule]`
+
+#### Scenario: Theme file change triggers geological reset
+- **WHEN** the changed file matches the resolved theme path (explicit `themePath` or auto-detected)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL re-evaluate the theme via bun subprocess, re-run full extraction, invalidate the CSS module, and return `[...modules, cssModule]`
+
+### Requirement: Content-hash file caching
+The Vite plugin SHALL maintain a `Map<string, { hash: string; source: string }>` file cache in the plugin closure during dev mode. The cache SHALL be populated at `buildStart` with all discovered files and updated incrementally on each `handleHotUpdate` event.
+
+#### Scenario: Cache populated at build start
+- **WHEN** `buildStart` completes file discovery and reading in dev mode
+- **THEN** the file cache SHALL contain an entry for every discovered file with its MD5 content hash and source string
+
+#### Scenario: Single file updated on HMR
+- **WHEN** `handleHotUpdate` fires for a file with a changed content hash
+- **THEN** only that file's cache entry SHALL be updated (new hash + new source)
+- **THEN** all other cache entries SHALL remain unchanged
+
+#### Scenario: File entries rebuilt from cache
+- **WHEN** the plugin needs to re-run `analyzeProject` after an HMR event
+- **THEN** it SHALL build the file entries array by iterating the cache map, using cached source strings for all files (including the freshly updated one)
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: handleHotUpdate lifecycle
+The Vite plugin SHALL implement a `handleHotUpdate` hook that receives the `{ file, server, modules }` context and follows the lifecycle: (1) check file relevance, (2) compute content hash, (3) classify change tier, (4) execute tier-appropriate action, (5) invalidate CSS module, (6) return `[...modules, cssModule]`.
+
+#### Scenario: Irrelevant file ignored
+- **WHEN** `handleHotUpdate` fires for a file with extension not in `.ts`, `.tsx`, `.js`, `.jsx`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL return `undefined` (no interception)
+
+#### Scenario: Excluded file ignored
+- **WHEN** `handleHotUpdate` fires for a file matching an exclude pattern (e.g., `node_modules`, `dist`)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL return `undefined`
+
+#### Scenario: Unchanged file skipped
+- **WHEN** the file's MD5 content hash matches the cached hash
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL return an empty array (suppress default HMR for this file)
+
+#### Scenario: Changed file triggers re-extraction and coordinated HMR
+- **WHEN** the file's content hash differs from the cached hash
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL: (1) update the cache entry, (2) rebuild file entries from cache, (3) re-run `analyzeProject`, (4) apply transform post-processing, (5) update stored manifest, (6) invalidate the virtual CSS module, (7) return `[...modules, cssModule]`
+
+### Requirement: Transform post-processing in handleHotUpdate
+The `handleHotUpdate` hook SHALL apply the same transform post-processing (resolve `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders via bun subprocess) that the `load` hook applies. The resolved CSS SHALL be stored so the `load` hook can serve it directly.
+
+#### Scenario: Transforms resolved during HMR
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject` produces CSS containing `__TRANSFORM__fluid__16-24__` placeholders
+- **THEN** the `handleHotUpdate` handler SHALL resolve these placeholders using the same bun subprocess mechanism as the `load` hook
+- **THEN** the stored manifest CSS SHALL contain the fully resolved CSS values
+
+#### Scenario: Load hook serves pre-resolved CSS
+- **WHEN** the `load` hook is invoked for the virtual CSS module after an HMR update
+- **THEN** it SHALL serve the pre-resolved CSS (theme variables + component CSS) without re-running transform resolution
+
+### Requirement: Stable class name hashing
+The Rust `make_class_name` function SHALL hash from `filename::binding` (file path + variable name) rather than the chain source text. This ensures class names are stable across style value edits, which is required for HMR — both the CSS rules and the JS `createComponent` calls must reference the same class name after an update.
+
+#### Scenario: Style edit produces same class name
+- **WHEN** a component's style value changes (e.g., `fontWeight: 700` → `fontWeight: 400`)
+- **THEN** the generated class name SHALL remain identical (same filename, same binding)
+- **THEN** the CSS rule selector matches the element's class attribute without re-rendering
+
+#### Scenario: Different files produce different hashes
+- **WHEN** two components with the same binding name exist in different files
+- **THEN** they SHALL produce different class names (different filename in hash input)
+
+#### Scenario: Same file, same binding always stable
+- **WHEN** the same component is re-extracted after any style edit
+- **THEN** the class name SHALL be deterministic and identical to the previous extraction

+1. **Chain walker** (`chain_walker.rs`) — unknown method on the builder chain → `extractable: false`. This is correct and unchanged.
+2. **Style evaluator** (`style_evaluator.rs`) — `eval_object_expr()` uses `?` to propagate `BailError` from any non-static property value up through the entire object evaluation.
+3. **Process chain** (`lib.rs`) — `parse_object_from_source()` returns `Err` → `process_chain()` returns `Err` → component skipped entirely.
+
+The problem is layer 2. A single non-static value (e.g., `background: arr.join('')`) causes `eval_expression()` → `BailError` → `eval_object_expr()` propagates → entire component gets zero styles.
+
+The user's key insight: method calls inside style values are **closed expressions** — they produce a value but don't affect the builder chain. The extractor can't evaluate them statically, but it CAN safely skip them and extract everything else.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Non-static property values skip the individual property, not the entire component
+- Structural issues (spread, computed keys, getters) still bail the entire object — they affect object shape
+- Skipped properties produce diagnostic warnings (not errors) in ExtractionResult
+- Nested contexts (pseudo-selectors, responsive objects) apply the same per-property skip
+- Zero changes to chain-level bail semantics
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Attempting to evaluate non-static expressions at build time (no partial evaluation, no const folding)
+- Making skipped properties work at runtime (no hybrid extraction + runtime fallback per property)
+- Changing the `ExtractionResult` struct shape
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Two categories of BailError: structural vs. value-level
+
+**Decision:** Split `BailError` into two severity levels. Structural errors (spread, computed key, getter/setter) bail the whole object. Value-level errors (function call, variable ref, template literal with expressions, member expression) skip just that property.
+
+**Rationale:** Structural errors mean we can't even determine the set of properties in the object. A spread (`...baseStyles`) could inject any number of properties — we can't know what we're missing. A computed key (`[dynamicKey]: value`) means we don't know the property name. These corrupt the object shape.
+
+Value-level errors mean we know the property name and position, we just can't resolve the value. Safe to skip.
+
+**Alternative considered:** A single `BailError` with a flag — rejected because the distinction is semantic, not just severity. Structural errors are fundamentally different from value errors.
+
+### 2. Collect warnings during evaluation, return partial result
+
+**Decision:** `eval_object_expr` returns `Result<(Value, Vec<SkippedProperty>), BailError>` — `Ok` with a partial object and skip diagnostics, or `Err` only for structural bail. The `SkippedProperty` carries the property name and reason.
+
+**Rationale:** This lets callers decide how to handle skips. `parse_object_from_source` can thread the warnings through to `process_chain` and into the `ExtractionResult.errors` vec (which already exists and is surfaced to the user).
+
+**Alternative considered:** Making `eval_object_expr` always succeed by treating structural errors as "skip all properties" — rejected because spread elements genuinely corrupt the result (we'd have an incomplete property set without knowing it).
+
+### 3. Recursive skip in nested objects
+
+**Decision:** When evaluating a nested object (pseudo-selector block, responsive value), apply the same per-property skip. A non-static value inside `'&:hover': { color: dynamicVar, bg: 'red' }` skips `color` but keeps `bg`.
+
+**Rationale:** Pseudo-selector blocks and responsive objects are just nested style objects. The same logic applies recursively.
+
+**Edge case:** If a pseudo-selector key's VALUE is entirely non-static (e.g., `'&:hover': someFunction()`), that's a value-level error on the parent property `'&:hover'` — skip the entire pseudo block. This is correct because we can't evaluate the block at all.
+
+### 4. Warnings format reuses existing `errors` vec
+
+**Decision:** Skipped property warnings go into `ExtractionResult.errors` with a distinct prefix: `"[skip] ComponentName: property 'background' skipped — function call (non-static)"`.
+
+**Rationale:** No API change. The `errors` field already carries bail reasons. Adding skip warnings with a `[skip]` prefix lets consumers distinguish them from full bails. The Vite plugin already logs these.
+
+**Alternative considered:** A separate `warnings` field on `ExtractionResult` — rejected because it's a NAPI struct change that ripples into the JS side for marginal benefit.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Partial extraction produces confusing visual results** — A component with 20 properties but 1 skipped might render with 19 correct styles and one missing (e.g., no background). The developer sees a mostly-styled component with a mysterious gap.
+→ **Mitigation:** The `[skip]` warning in the extraction output names the exact property and reason. The Vite plugin already logs extraction errors. Additionally, we could emit a CSS comment above the component's rules listing skipped properties.
+
+**[Risk] Spread elements could hide inside nested objects** — `{ '&:hover': { ...hoverStyles } }` — the spread is inside a nested object, not at the top level.
+→ **Mitigation:** The recursive evaluation already catches this. `eval_object_expr` is called recursively for nested objects, and spread at any level triggers structural bail for that nested object. The parent property (`'&:hover'`) then fails as a value-level error and gets skipped.
+
+**[Trade-off] More properties extracted = more CSS generated = larger output for partially-extractable components** — Previously these components produced zero CSS. Now they produce CSS for all static properties. This is net positive (the component actually works) but increases output size relative to the zero-output baseline.

+## Why
+
+The style evaluator currently bails the **entire component** when any single style property contains a non-static expression (function call, variable reference, template literal with interpolation). This means one complex gradient using `.join('')` or one dynamic color reference kills all 20 other perfectly static properties — the component gets zero styles, zero class name, invisible element.
+
+This is the single biggest friction point in the extraction pipeline. Creative CSS work (gradients, shadows, SVG data URIs) naturally produces values that are difficult to express as single static strings. The extractor should extract what it can and skip what it can't, not throw everything away.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Style evaluator skips individual non-static properties instead of bailing the entire object
+- Skipped properties are reported as warnings in the extraction result (not errors)
+- Structural issues (spread elements, computed keys, getters/setters) still bail the entire object — these affect the shape of the style object, not just one value
+- Chain-level bail semantics unchanged — unknown methods on the builder chain still bail the whole component
+- The distinction is **scope**: a `.join()` on the builder chain is structural (bail component), a `.join()` inside a style value is a closed expression (skip property)
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `per-property-bail`: Style evaluator gracefully degrades by skipping non-static properties instead of bailing entire components. Includes diagnostic reporting of skipped properties.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: The static style evaluation requirement changes from "bail entire chain on non-static value" to "skip individual property, continue extraction." Scenarios for bail-on-variable-reference and bail-on-function-call change to property-skip semantics.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/extract/src/style_evaluator.rs`** — `eval_object_expr` changes from propagating `BailError` to catching and collecting per-property skip warnings
+- **`packages/extract/src/lib.rs`** — `parse_object_from_source` and `process_chain` may need to handle a new return shape that includes both partial results and skip diagnostics
+- **`packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts`** — Existing snapshots change (components that previously produced zero output now produce partial output)
+- **No API changes** — `ExtractionResult` already has an `errors` field that can carry skip warnings
+- **No runtime changes** — extracted CSS is still valid, just has fewer properties for partially-evaluated components

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Per-property skip on non-static values
+The style evaluator SHALL skip individual properties whose values cannot be statically evaluated, rather than bailing the entire style object. Skipped properties SHALL NOT appear in the extracted CSS. All other properties in the same object SHALL be extracted normally.
+
+#### Scenario: Function call in one property, static values in others
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ background: arr.join(''), color: 'red', p: 16 }`
+- **THEN** `background` SHALL be skipped, and the result SHALL contain `{ "color": "red", "p": 16 }`
+
+#### Scenario: Variable reference in one property
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ bg: dynamicColor, fontSize: 14, display: 'flex' }`
+- **THEN** `bg` SHALL be skipped, and the result SHALL contain `{ "fontSize": 14, "display": "flex" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Template literal with expression in one property
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `` { animation: `${keyframeName} 2s`, opacity: 1 } ``
+- **THEN** `animation` SHALL be skipped, and the result SHALL contain `{ "opacity": 1 }`
+
+#### Scenario: Member expression in one property
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ color: theme.colors.primary, padding: '8px' }`
+- **THEN** `color` SHALL be skipped, and the result SHALL contain `{ "padding": "8px" }`
+
+#### Scenario: All properties non-static
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ bg: dynamicA, color: dynamicB }`
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be an empty object `{}` with skip warnings for both properties
+
+#### Scenario: Component still gets class name with partial extraction
+- **WHEN** a chain has `ds.styles({ background: arr.join(''), color: 'red', p: 16 }).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL be marked `extractable: true`, receive a class name, and produce CSS containing `color` and `padding` declarations but NOT `background`
+
+### Requirement: Structural errors still bail the entire object
+Spread elements, computed property keys, and getter/setter properties SHALL still cause `eval_object_expr` to bail with an error for the entire object. These errors affect the shape of the object — the evaluator cannot determine the complete set of properties.
+
+#### Scenario: Spread element bails entire object
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ ...baseStyles, color: 'red' }`
+- **THEN** the entire object SHALL bail (not just skip the spread) — `color: 'red'` is NOT extracted
+
+#### Scenario: Computed property key bails entire object
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ [dynamicKey]: 'value', color: 'red' }`
+- **THEN** the entire object SHALL bail — the evaluator cannot know what `dynamicKey` resolves to
+
+#### Scenario: Getter bails entire object
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ get color() { return 'red' } }`
+- **THEN** the entire object SHALL bail — getters are not static declarations
+
+### Requirement: Recursive skip in nested objects
+Per-property skip SHALL apply recursively within nested objects (pseudo-selector blocks, responsive value objects). A non-static value inside a nested block SHALL skip only that inner property.
+
+#### Scenario: Non-static value inside pseudo-selector block
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ '&:hover': { color: dynamicVar, bg: 'red' } }`
+- **THEN** inside the `&:hover` block, `color` SHALL be skipped and `bg` SHALL be extracted
+
+#### Scenario: Non-static pseudo-selector value (not an object)
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ '&:hover': someFunction(), color: 'red' }`
+- **THEN** `&:hover` SHALL be skipped as a property (its value is non-static), and `color` SHALL be extracted
+
+#### Scenario: Spread inside nested object skips the parent property
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ '&:hover': { ...hoverOverrides, bg: 'red' }, color: 'blue' }`
+- **THEN** the `&:hover` nested object triggers structural bail, which causes the `&:hover` property to be skipped on the parent. `color: 'blue'` SHALL still be extracted.
+
+### Requirement: Skip diagnostics in extraction output
+Each skipped property SHALL produce a diagnostic warning in `ExtractionResult.errors` with a `[skip]` prefix. The warning SHALL include the component binding name, the property name, and the reason for skipping.
+
+#### Scenario: Skip warning format
+- **WHEN** property `background` is skipped in component `Hero` due to a function call
+- **THEN** `ExtractionResult.errors` SHALL contain `"[skip] Hero: property 'background' — function call (non-static)"`
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple skipped properties produce multiple warnings
+- **WHEN** component `Card` has three non-static properties: `bg`, `boxShadow`, and `animation`
+- **THEN** `ExtractionResult.errors` SHALL contain three `[skip]` entries, one for each property
+
+#### Scenario: Skip warnings do not prevent extraction
+- **WHEN** a component has skip warnings but also has static properties
+- **THEN** `ExtractionResult.extractable` SHALL be `true` and `ExtractionResult.css` SHALL contain the static properties

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Static style evaluation
+The style evaluator SHALL convert ObjectExpression AST nodes to key-value style maps. It SHALL handle string literals, numeric literals, nested object literals (for pseudo-selectors and responsive values), and array literals. When encountering a property whose value is a function call, variable reference, template literal containing expressions, or member expression, the evaluator SHALL skip that individual property and continue evaluating remaining properties. It SHALL bail the entire object only on structural issues: spread elements, computed property keys, and getter/setter properties.
+
+#### Scenario: Evaluate simple style object
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ p: 0, display: 'inline-flex', borderRadius: 4 }`
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce `{ "p": 0, "display": "inline-flex", "borderRadius": 4 }`
+
+#### Scenario: Evaluate nested pseudo-selector
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ '&:hover': { color: 'primary' } }`
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce `{ "&:hover": { "color": "primary" } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Evaluate responsive object
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ fontSize: { _: 16, xs: 18 } }`
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce `{ "fontSize": { "_": 16, "xs": 18 } }` (responsive resolution happens in CSS generation)
+
+#### Scenario: Skip property with template literal expression
+- **WHEN** the evaluator encounters `{ animation: \`${flow} 5s\`, color: 'red' }`
+- **THEN** it SHALL skip `animation`, produce `{ "color": "red" }`, and report a skip warning for `animation`
+
+#### Scenario: Skip property with variable reference
+- **WHEN** the evaluator encounters `{ color: someVariable, display: 'flex' }`
+- **THEN** it SHALL skip `color`, produce `{ "display": "flex" }`, and report a skip warning for `color`
+
+#### Scenario: Bail on spread (structural)
+- **WHEN** the evaluator encounters `{ ...baseStyles, color: 'red' }`
+- **THEN** the entire object SHALL bail — spread affects object shape
+
+#### Scenario: Bail on computed key (structural)
+- **WHEN** the evaluator encounters `{ [dynamicKey]: 'red' }`
+- **THEN** the entire object SHALL bail — computed keys affect object shape

+## 1. Style Evaluator — Per-Property Skip

+- [x] 1.3 In `eval_object_expr`, catch value-level `BailError` from `eval_expression` per property — on catch, push to skip list and continue loop instead of propagating with `?`
+- [x] 1.4 Handle recursive nested objects: when `eval_object_expr` is called for a nested object (pseudo-selector value) and returns `Ok` with skips, thread those skips up. When it returns `Err` (structural bail in nested), treat as a value-level skip on the parent property.
+- [x] 1.5 Update `eval_object_expr` tests: existing bail tests become skip tests (function call, variable ref, template literal skip individual property). Structural bail tests remain (spread, computed key).
+
+## 2. Variant and States Evaluation — Propagate Skip Semantics
+
+- [x] 2.1 Update `parse_variant_arg` to use new `eval_object_expr` return shape — collect skips from variant option style objects
+- [x] 2.2 Update `parse_states_arg` to use new return shape — collect skips from state style objects
+- [x] 2.3 Thread skip warnings from variant/states evaluation up through `parse_variant_from_source` and `parse_object_from_source`
+
+## 3. Process Chain — Skip Diagnostics
+

+- [x] 3.2 Update `parse_variant_from_source` to return skip info alongside `VariantStageConfig`
+- [x] 3.3 In `process_chain`, collect all `SkippedProperty` from styles/variant/states stages and format as `[skip] {binding}: property '{key}' — {reason}` warnings
+- [x] 3.4 In `extract()`, push skip warnings into `ExtractionResult.errors` (alongside existing bail errors)
+
+## 4. Canary Test Update
+
+- [x] 4.1 Add canary test case: component with mixed static and non-static properties — verify partial CSS output and skip warnings
+- [x] 4.2 Add canary test case: component with non-static value inside pseudo-selector block — verify inner property skipped, rest extracted
+- [x] 4.3 Add canary test case: component with spread element — verify structural bail still works (entire object fails)

+## Context
+
+The extraction pipeline (Arcs 1-5) is complete: static styles, variants, states, system props, extension chains, dead variant elimination, package resolution, and CSS variable emission all work. The smoke test validates individual features but uses an inline Vite plugin that bypasses real package integration. The showcase app is the first REAL consumer of the published package surface.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Demonstrate real-world Vite plugin setup (import, configure, build)
+- Use ThemeBuilder with evaluateTheme for color mode variable emission
+- Exercise the full Animus API vocabulary in a visually polished app
+- Discover integration gaps that unit tests and the smoke test miss
+- Serve as a reference implementation for future consumers
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Routing / multi-page app (single page with sections is sufficient)
+- Server-side rendering (pure SPA for now)
+- Fixing Emotion type dependencies in theming package (noted tech debt)
+- Publishing packages to npm (workspace resolution is sufficient)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Package setup: workspace deps, no source aliases
+
+The showcase uses Bun workspace resolution to depend on `@animus-ui/core`, `@animus-ui/theming`, `@animus-ui/vite-plugin`, and `@animus-ui/runtime`. No Vite `resolve.alias` pointing at source directories. This tests the actual package exports and dist builds.
+
+**Constraint:** Packages must be built first (`bun run build` at root). The showcase's `package.json` lists workspace deps, and Bun resolves them to `packages/*/dist/`.
+
+### 2. Theme evaluation via Bun subprocess
+
+`evaluateTheme` requires `ssrLoadModule`, which is a Vite server API. For build-time evaluation in `vite.config.ts`, we use a Bun subprocess pattern:
+
+```ts
+import { execSync } from 'child_process';
+const themeData = JSON.parse(
+  execSync('bun -e "..."', { encoding: 'utf-8' })
+);
+```
+
+The subprocess imports `ThemeBuilder`, builds the theme, and calls `evaluateTheme` with a mock ssrLoadModule that just returns the built theme. This produces `{ scalesJson, variableCss }` which is passed to `animusExtract({ theme: { scales, variables } })`.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Direct `import()` in vite.config.ts. Rejected because the theme module may import from `@animus-ui/theming` which has CJS/ESM interop issues in Vite's config context.
+
+### 3. Component architecture: primitives → compositions → sections
+
+```
+COMPONENT HIERARCHY
+═══════════════════
+
+Primitives (animus.styles + groups + asElement):
+  Box, Text, Stack, Container
+
+Compositions (Primitive.extend + variants + states):
+  Button, Card, Badge, Input, Link
+
+Sections (React components using compositions):
+  Hero, Features, ComponentShowcase, Footer
+```
+
+Each level exercises different extraction capabilities:
+- Primitives: base styles + system props (groups)
+- Compositions: extension chains + variants + states + responsive values + pseudo-selectors
+- Sections: JSX usage of all the above, demonstrating reconciliation (dead variant elimination)
+
+### 4. Frontend design skill for visual implementation
+
+The actual component styling and page layout will be implemented via the `frontend-design` skill. The design should be distinctive — not a generic Tailwind-style landing page. It should feel like a design system documentation site that IS the design system.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Package build order]** → Showcase depends on built dist/ for all packages. If a package hasn't been built, imports fail. Mitigation: document build prerequisite, or add a `prebuild` script.
+- **[ThemeBuilder Emotion type dep]** → `@animus-ui/theming` imports `Theme` from `@emotion/react` at the type level. This doesn't affect runtime but may cause tsc errors if `@emotion/react` isn't installed. Mitigation: include `@emotion/react` as a dev dependency in the showcase, or skip typecheck for now.
+- **[evaluateTheme gap]** → `evaluateTheme` expects `_variables` and `_tokens.modes` on the theme object. If the ThemeBuilder doesn't populate these correctly (hasn't been tested end-to-end), the Bun subprocess will fail. This IS the gap we're testing for.

+## Why
+
+The smoke test at `packages/smoke-test/` proved the extraction pipeline works, but it hides real integration complexity behind an inline Vite plugin, static JSON theme, and minimal components. A real application using Animus would import `@animus-ui/vite-plugin` as a package, use `ThemeBuilder` from `@animus-ui/theming` for color modes, compose components at depth, and exercise the full vocabulary of the builder chain API.
+
+Building a proper showcase app serves three purposes: (1) end-to-end validation that the entire extraction pipeline works as a consumer would actually use it, (2) a reference implementation demonstrating how to set up and use Animus with extraction, and (3) a design quality proof that the Animus API is expressive enough to build distinctive, polished interfaces — not just render colored boxes.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **New package `packages/showcase/`**: A Vite + React application that uses Animus packages as workspace dependencies — no inline plugins, no source aliases, no shortcuts.
+- **Real theme via ThemeBuilder**: Uses `@animus-ui/theming`'s `createTheme().addColors().addColorModes().build()` with `evaluateTheme` to produce CSS variable definitions. Light and dark modes.
+- **Component vocabulary exercise**: Components demonstrating `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()`, `.groups()`, `.extend()`, `.asComponent()`, responsive values, pseudo-selectors, and composition depth (components inside components).
+- **Polished frontend design**: Uses the `frontend-design` skill for visual quality — this should look like a real product, not a test fixture.
+- **`vite.config.ts` as reference**: Shows the minimal, correct setup for a consumer: import plugin, evaluate theme, configure, done.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+_None — this is a consumer of existing capabilities, not a new pipeline feature._
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+_None — existing specs are unchanged. Gaps discovered during implementation will be tracked as new proposals._
+
+## Impact
+
+- **New package**: `packages/showcase/` — Vite + React app
+- **Dependencies**: `@animus-ui/core`, `@animus-ui/theming`, `@animus-ui/vite-plugin`, `@animus-ui/runtime`
+- **No changes to existing packages** — this is a pure consumer. Any integration issues discovered are filed as separate proposals, not fixed inline.
+- **Build verification**: `bun run build` in the showcase must succeed with extraction, color modes, and zero Emotion runtime.

+## Context
+
+The showcase (`packages/showcase/`) has a working design system instance (`ds`) with vermilion/void tokens, dark+light color modes, custom transforms (fluid, ratio), and a SyntaxBlock for code highlighting. The extraction pipeline is verified end-to-end. What's missing is a component layer and narrative that uses the system to tell a story rather than display a catalog.
+
+An earlier attempt (archived) kept generic components and rewrote only the copy. The result was a product page with different words — proving that narrative voice requires purpose-built components, not just content changes.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Replace all showcase components with purpose-built narrative components
+- Each component API communicates narrative intent (the name is the voice)
+- 6-section arc: Void → Indictment → What Remains → Forge → Proof → Close
+- 4 code moments only (chain, @layer output, fluid transform, color modes)
+- Dostoevsky/Tartakovsky voice: confessional, accusatory, held silences, no marketing
+- Every component extractable — the showcase proves the pipeline
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Light mode polish (dark is the primary mode, light works via tokens but isn't optimized)
+- Scroll-triggered animations (CSS animation on mount + stagger delays is sufficient)
+- Mobile-specific layouts beyond existing responsive breakpoints
+- Documentation or API reference (the showcase is a polemic, not docs)
+- Performance benchmarks (the code moments make the case, not numbers)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Component APIs as Narrative Grammar
+
+Component names carry intent. The API is part of the voice.
+
+| Generic (rejected) | Narrative (chosen) | Why |
+|---|---|---|
+| `<Hero>` | `<VoidFrame>` | A hero has CTAs and content slots. The void has nothing. |
+| `<QuoteBlock variant="dark">` | `<Indictment delay={2}>` | `delay` is a stage cue. `stagger` is rhythm of testimony. |
+| `<ComparisonTable>` | `<ForgeBench>` | A comparison gives equal weight. The forge dims the "before." |
+| `<Divider label="02">` | `<SectionScar chapter="02">` | A divider is symmetric. A scar points forward. |
+| `<ComponentPreview>` | `<ProofSpecimen layer="variants">` | Preview shows components. Specimen shows evidence. |
+| `<CodeBlock>` inside `<Card>` | `<CodeAltar file="ds.ts">` | A card is furniture. An altar has intentional emptiness. |
+| `<Icon size="lg">` | `<EmberGlyph speed="slow">` | Icons have no emotional register. Glyphs have pulse. |
+| `<Heading>` | `<VerdictLine>` | A heading fades in. A verdict is cut from stone. |
+
+### 2. Builder Chain Primitives + React Wrappers
+
+Each narrative component has two layers:
+1. **Builder chain primitives** — static, extractable, defined via `ds.styles({...}).variant({...}).asElement()`
+2. **React wrappers** — thin composition logic for stagger timing, children mapping, conditional rendering
+
+Example: `Indictment` has `IndictmentBlock` and `IndictmentLine` (builder chains) plus an `Indictment` React function that maps children strings to staggered `IndictmentLine` elements.
+
+**Why:** The builder chain handles all CSS (extractable). The React wrapper handles composition (runtime). Clean separation.
+
+### 3. Four Code Moments (Ruthless Cut)
+
+| Moment | Position | What it proves | Presentation |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| 1. The Chain | "What Remains" section | The API reads like a sentence | CodeAltar, no output, silence |
+| 2. The Revelation | "The Forge" section | Chain maps to @layer CSS 1:1 | ForgeBench, asymmetric split |
+| 3. The Differentiator | "The Forge" section | User-defined build-time computation | CodeAltar with 4-step sequence |
+| 4. The Quiet Close | Before verdict | Color modes = one attribute mutation | CodeAltar, minimal |
+
+**Cut:** Extension chains (too abstract), responsive compilation (parity not differentiator), architecture diagrams (for contributors not consumers), @layer ordering details (implicit in Moment 2), Vite config (infrastructure).
+
+### 4. Animation Strategy
+
+New keyframes in `global.css`:
+
+```
+void-pulse    — 6s box-shadow breathing on VoidFrame
+burn-in       — 0.4s opacity+translate+blur reveal (update existing)
+scar-draw     — 0.8s width 0→100% for SectionScar lines
+forge-reveal  — 0.6s clip-path inset reveal for VerdictLine
+ember         — 4s text-shadow breathing (keep existing)
+```
+
+All timing controlled via inline `animationDelay` style prop on builder chain primitives. No Intersection Observer. No scroll libraries. CSS animation on mount.
+
+### 5. ForgeBench Layout
+
+3-column CSS grid: `1fr auto 1fr`. The center column is a 2px ember scar with glow. Left pane (`ForgeInput`) starts at `opacity: 0.7` — the old world is fading. Right pane (`ForgeOutput`) is full brightness. Hover on left pane brings it to full opacity.
+
+**Why asymmetric:** A neutral comparison table says "pick whichever." The forge says: one of these is dying and one is being born.
+
+### 6. ProofSpecimen as Evidence
+
+Each `ProofSpecimen` shows a live rendered component AND the exact CSS class + layer it extracted to. Layout: top half is a "stage" (dark surface, component rendered live), bottom half is a 2-column grid (left: class hash + layer badge, right: extracted CSS).
+
+This communicates: the component you see and the CSS you inspect are the SAME object, bifurcated by the pipeline.
+
+### 7. File Organization
+
+```
+packages/showcase/src/
+  ds.ts              — preserved (tokens, system)
+  components.tsx     — REPLACED: narrative components (builder chain primitives)
+  narrative.tsx      — NEW: React wrappers (Indictment, ProofSpecimen, CodeAltar, SectionScar)
+  SyntaxBlock.tsx    — preserved (borderRadius fix)
+  App.tsx            — REPLACED: six-section narrative arc
+  global.css         — UPDATED: new keyframes
+  reset.css          — preserved
+  main.tsx           — preserved
+```
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Specificity = non-reusable]** → Components like `VoidFrame` and `Indictment` are useless outside this showcase. **Mitigation:** That IS the point. The showcase proves Animus can create purpose-built components for any context. Generic reusability is the Tailwind mindset.
+
+**[Copy tone risks pretension]** → "Notes from Underground" voice can read as try-hard. **Mitigation:** The narrative agent tested multiple variations. The strongest lines are short, specific, and include the narrator in the accusation. "I wrote the blog posts" is not pretentious — it's confessional.
+
+**[Too few code moments]** → 4 code examples may feel thin. **Mitigation:** Each moment is a self-contained argument. The technical proof agent confirmed these 4 cover the full differentiator surface. More would dilute.
+
+**[ForgeBench responsive behavior]** → 3-column grid doesn't work on mobile. **Mitigation:** Stack to single column at `sm` breakpoint with scar becoming horizontal between panes.

+## Why
+
+The showcase has forge-aesthetic tokens and ~30 generic components (Card, Badge, Button, Timeline), but the App.tsx assembles them like a product page — feature grids, component demos, pipeline visualizations. A previous attempt (archived: `showcase-narrative-redesign`) rewrote the copy but kept the same generic components. The result looked like a Tailwind template with different words. That's exactly the trap Animus exists to reject.
+
+The components themselves and their APIs are the creative expression. The act of designing `<Indictment delay={2} stagger={0.4}>` instead of `<Text variant="quote">` is the voice. The showcase must prove that Animus can produce purpose-built components for a specific narrative — not generic parts shuffled into different arrangements.
+
+Three inspiration streams: Genndy Tartakovsky's *Primal* (flat color fields, silhouette storytelling, held frames, no dialogue), Icecrown Citadel soul forges (creation through consuming, transformation as the central act), Dostoevsky's *Notes from Underground* (confessional, accusatory, self-aware — the narrator includes himself in the accusation).
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Delete all existing showcase components** — `components.tsx` is replaced entirely with purpose-built narrative components
+- **8 new narrative component families** designed specifically for this story:
+  - `VoidFrame` / `VoidSignature` / `VoidWhisper` — the 80vh held silence
+  - `IndictmentBlock` / `IndictmentLine` + `Indictment` React wrapper — burn-in text with stagger API
+  - `ForgeBench` / `ForgeInput` / `ForgeOutput` / `ForgeScar` — asymmetric before/after transformation
+  - `SectionScar` / `ScarLine` / `ScarChapter` — directional chapter separators
+  - `ProofSpecimen` / `ProofStage` / `ProofEvidence` — live component + extracted CSS evidence
+  - `CodeAltar` / `AltarHeader` / `AltarCaption` — code as sacred object with intentional emptiness
+  - `EmberGlyph` — Primal silhouette punctuation with size/speed variants and frozen/flare states
+  - `VerdictLine` — closing inscription revealed via clip-path
+- **Complete App.tsx rewrite** — six-section narrative arc: Void → Indictment → What Remains → The Forge → The Proof → The Close
+- **4 code moments** (ruthlessly cut from ~15 in previous version): the chain, the @layer revelation, the fluid transform ("oh shit"), color mode switching
+- **New animation keyframes** — `void-pulse`, `forge-reveal`, updated `burn-in` and `scar-draw`
+- **Infrastructure fixes** — Google Fonts link (Barlow Condensed 800), SyntaxBlock borderRadius: 0
+- **Narrative copy** — Dostoevsky voice: "I wrote the blog posts", "You already understand it", "This is not a new idea. It is a recovered one.", "Take it or don't. But you know it's true."
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `showcase-forge-narrative`: The narrative component system (8 component families), the six-section arc structure, voice rules, 4 code moments, and the design principle that component APIs ARE narrative voice
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/showcase/src/components.tsx` — complete replacement
+- `packages/showcase/src/App.tsx` — complete rewrite
+- `packages/showcase/src/global.css` — new/updated animation keyframes
+- `packages/showcase/src/SyntaxBlock.tsx` — borderRadius fix
+- `packages/showcase/index.html` — Google Fonts link update
+- `packages/showcase/src/ds.ts` — preserved as-is (tokens are solid)
+- No changes to core, system, extract, vite-plugin, runtime, or theming packages
+- All new components must be extractable — the showcase is proof the pipeline works

+## Context
+
+The showcase app currently mixes two Animus instances and has several issues:
+1. `components.tsx` uses default `animus` from `@animus-ui/core`; `custom-vocabulary.tsx` uses a custom `ds` instance
+2. The Vite plugin auto-loads config from `@animus-ui/core`'s default instance, so the custom `ds` groups (surface, arrange, etc.) aren't in the group registry passed to Rust
+3. `GridArrange`'s `cols` prop doesn't work because the `gridItemRatio` transform isn't resolved for the custom instance's config path
+4. The theme doesn't augment core's `Theme` interface, so Scale type resolution falls through to CompatTheme instead of using the showcase's actual theme scales
+5. Dev-mode HMR does full page reload, losing React state
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Single `ds` instance for all showcase components — end-to-end custom design system workflow
+- Theme augments core's `Theme` so Scale types resolve against actual theme values
+- Vite config passes custom config/groupRegistry to the plugin
+- Transform resolution works for custom instance (gridItemRatio, borderShorthand, size)
+- CSS-only HMR preserves React state on style changes
+- Content-hash caching for fast incremental re-analysis
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Auto-detection of custom instances (explicit config passing is the correct API)
+- Making `getExtractConfig()` a method on the builder result (future work for Theme-first-class)
+- Changes to the Rust extraction pipeline (it already handles any root identifier)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Custom config via `getExtractConfig()` export
+
+The custom-vocabulary module will export a `getExtractConfig()` function that serializes its own prop config and group registry. The vite.config imports this and passes it to `animusExtract()`.
+
+**Why:** Mirrors the existing pattern from `@animus-ui/core`. The plugin already accepts `config` and `groupRegistry` options. No new API surface needed.
+
+**Implementation:** The `createAnimus().addGroup().build()` result is an AnimusConfig. We need to expose `getExtractConfig()` from the custom config instance. The simplest path: the custom-vocabulary builds its config normally and exports a function that serializes it the same way `getExtractConfig()` does in core.
+
+### Decision 2: Theme augmentation via declare module
+
+The showcase's `theme.ts` will add `declare module '@animus-ui/core' { interface Theme extends BaseTheme {} }`. This makes Scale types resolve against the actual theme (space, fontSizes, colors, etc.) instead of CompatTheme.
+
+**Why:** Without augmentation, `fontSize: 24` is rejected by the type system because `24` isn't in CompatTheme's fontSizes array. With augmentation, it resolves against the theme's `fontSizes` object which has `24` as a key.
+
+### Decision 3: All components from `ds`, merge components.tsx into custom-vocabulary
+
+Instead of maintaining two files, merge all components into `custom-vocabulary.tsx` (rename to `components.tsx`) using the `ds` instance. The custom groups (surface, arrange, text, motion, space, positioning) cover all use cases.
+
+**Why:** One file, one instance, one mental model. Eliminates the mixed-instance confusion.
+
+### Decision 4: CSS module invalidation for HMR
+
+Replace `server.ws.send({ type: 'full-reload' })` with:
+```ts
+const cssModule = server.moduleGraph.getModuleById(RESOLVED_CSS_ID);
+if (cssModule) {
+  server.moduleGraph.invalidateModule(cssModule);
+  return [cssModule]; // Vite sends CSS-only HMR update
+}
+```
+
+**Why:** Vite's CSS HMR swaps stylesheets without touching React state. The page stays loaded, components keep their state, only styles update.
+
+### Decision 5: Content-hash file cache
+
+A `Map<string, string>` mapping file paths to content hashes. On `handleHotUpdate`, only re-read files whose hash changed. Skip others by reusing the previous file entry.
+
+**Why:** `analyzeProject` takes all file entries. Re-reading unchanged files from disk is wasted I/O. With hashing, only the changed file is re-read. At scale (~1800 files), this matters.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk] Custom getExtractConfig() duplicates serialization logic** → Acceptable; it's ~20 lines and the pattern is well-established. Future Theme-first-class work will unify this.
+- **[Risk] CSS-only HMR may not trigger for all change types** → Source code changes (not just style changes) may still need full reload. The plugin should fall through to full-reload for non-extractable changes.
+- **[Risk] Content-hash assumes file identity by path** → File renames aren't handled incrementally. This is fine; renamed files trigger a full re-analysis on next save.

+## Why
+
+The showcase app mixes two Animus instances: the default `animus` from `@animus-ui/core` (18 components) and a custom `ds` from `custom-vocabulary.tsx` (5 components). This was an error from a previous session. The showcase should demonstrate a SINGLE custom design system end-to-end — from `createAnimus()` through extraction — proving the full workflow without relying on the default instance.
+
+Additionally, the custom instance's grid transforms don't work correctly. `GridArrange` uses the `arrange` group (which merges the `grid` group objects), but the `cols` prop doesn't produce expected output because the transform post-processing pipeline only loads transforms from the default `@animus-ui/core` config. The custom instance's config/groupRegistry needs to be passed to the Vite plugin explicitly.
+
+Separately, dev-mode HMR uses `full-reload` on every file change, losing React state and causing visible flicker. Vite natively supports CSS-only hot replacement — we just need to use it.
+
+## What Changes
+
+### Part 1: Showcase → Pure Custom Instance
+- Rewrite `components.tsx` to use `ds` from `custom-vocabulary.tsx` instead of `animus` from `@animus-ui/core`
+- The custom vocabulary's group definitions already cover all needed groups (surface, arrange, text, motion, space, positioning)
+- Add `getExtractConfig()` export to the custom instance so the Vite plugin can load its config
+- Update `vite.config.ts` to pass custom instance config/groupRegistry to `animusExtract()`
+- Fix transform resolution for custom instance — the `gridItemRatio` and `borderShorthand` transforms need to resolve via the custom config path
+
+### Part 2: CSS-Only HMR
+- Replace `server.ws.send({ type: 'full-reload' })` in `handleHotUpdate` with CSS module invalidation via `server.moduleGraph.invalidateModule()`
+- Add content-hash file cache (`Map<path, hash>`) to skip unchanged files during re-analysis
+- Target: <50ms single-file HMR on a 100-file project
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `custom-instance-extraction`: The extraction pipeline supports custom Animus instances end-to-end when config/groupRegistry are passed to the Vite plugin. Proves the `createAnimus() → addGroup() → build()` → extraction workflow.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: CSS-only HMR replaces full-reload. Content-hash caching skips unchanged files. Plugin accepts custom config/groupRegistry via options.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/showcase/src/components.tsx`**: Rewritten to use `ds` instance
+- **`packages/showcase/src/custom-vocabulary.tsx`**: Becomes the single source of truth, gains `getExtractConfig()` export
+- **`packages/showcase/vite.config.ts`**: Passes custom config to `animusExtract()`
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`**: `handleHotUpdate` uses CSS module invalidation, content-hash cache added
+- **Developer experience**: Style changes reflect instantly without losing React state

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Custom instance extraction via explicit config
+The extraction pipeline SHALL support custom Animus instances when their config and group registry are passed to the Vite plugin via options. The Rust pipeline's chain walker already recognizes any root identifier — this requirement covers the config wiring.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom instance with custom groups extracts correctly
+- **WHEN** a custom Animus instance defines groups like `surface`, `arrange`, `text`
+- **THEN** the Vite plugin receives the custom group registry mapping those names to prop arrays
+- **THEN** the Rust pipeline resolves system props against the custom group definitions
+- **THEN** extracted CSS includes utility classes for system props used on custom-instance components
+
+#### Scenario: Transforms resolve for custom instance
+- **WHEN** a custom instance's groups include props with transforms (e.g., `borderRadius` with `size`, `gridTemplateColumns` with `gridItemRatio`)
+- **THEN** the Vite plugin's transform post-processing resolves those transforms using the same registry
+- **THEN** CSS output contains transformed values (e.g., `border-radius: 12px` not `border-radius: 12`)
+
+### Requirement: Theme augmentation for custom instance type safety
+A custom Animus instance's consuming app SHALL augment `@animus-ui/core`'s `Theme` interface with the actual theme type so Scale types resolve against real theme values.
+
+#### Scenario: Scale type resolution with augmented Theme
+- **WHEN** the theme defines `fontSizes: { 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 24, 30, 36, 48, 64 }`
+- **THEN** `fontSize: 24` is accepted by the type system
+- **THEN** `fontSize: 99` is rejected by the type system (not in the scale)
+
+### Requirement: Custom getExtractConfig export
+A custom Animus instance SHALL export a `getExtractConfig()` function that serializes its prop config and group registry for the extraction pipeline.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom config serialization
+- **WHEN** calling `getExtractConfig()` from the custom instance module
+- **THEN** it returns `{ propConfig: string, groupRegistry: string }` with JSON-serialized maps
+- **THEN** the propConfig includes all props from all custom groups with transform names resolved
+- **THEN** the groupRegistry maps custom group names to their constituent prop name arrays

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: CSS-only HMR in dev mode
+The Vite plugin SHALL use CSS module invalidation instead of full page reload when style-related files change during development. React component state SHALL be preserved across style updates.
+
+#### Scenario: Style change triggers CSS-only update
+- **WHEN** a developer saves a file containing Animus builder chains
+- **THEN** the plugin re-analyzes the project and updates the virtual CSS module
+- **THEN** Vite sends a CSS-only HMR update (not full-reload)
+- **THEN** the page updates styles without losing React state
+
+#### Scenario: Non-extractable change falls through to full reload
+- **WHEN** a file change produces no extractable components (e.g., utility function change)
+- **THEN** the plugin falls through to Vite's default HMR behavior
+- **THEN** React's normal module replacement handles the update
+
+### Requirement: Content-hash file caching
+The Vite plugin SHALL cache file contents by content hash during dev mode. On HMR, only files whose content changed SHALL be re-read from disk.
+
+#### Scenario: Unchanged files are skipped
+- **WHEN** a single file is saved during dev mode
+- **THEN** only that file is re-read from disk
+- **THEN** all other file entries reuse their cached content
+- **THEN** the full file entry array is passed to `analyzeProject` with minimal I/O
+
+#### Scenario: Single-file HMR latency
+- **WHEN** a single file changes in a 100-file project
+- **THEN** the HMR cycle completes in under 50ms

+## Context
+
+The showcase (`packages/showcase/`) has forge-aesthetic tokens and ~30 components already implemented (vermilion/void palette, Barlow Condensed 800 headings, JetBrains Mono body, zero border-radius, ember/pulse/burn-in/strike animations). The infrastructure works. What's missing is narrative content — App.tsx is a generic product page that doesn't use the aesthetic vocabulary to tell a story.
+
+The existing components in `components.tsx` and primitives in `ds.ts` are sufficient — no new component definitions are needed. The redesign is a content and composition change, not a component architecture change.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Rewrite App.tsx as a six-part narrative polemic
+- Establish a voice (Underground Man: confessional, accusatory, self-aware)
+- Use temperature-driven composition (cold → cold → EXPLOSION → quiet)
+- Make code blocks the hero elements — no captions, Tartakovsky silence
+- Fix infrastructure mismatches (wrong fonts loaded, borderRadius on SyntaxBlock)
+- Every component remains extractable — the showcase still proves the pipeline
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- New component definitions (use existing ~30 components)
+- Token or color palette changes (forge tokens are final)
+- Light mode polish (defer to follow-up)
+- Scroll-triggered animations or intersection observer (CSS animation-delay on mount is sufficient)
+- Mobile-specific layout work beyond existing responsive breakpoints
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Six-Part Narrative Arc over Feature-Grid Layout
+
+The app follows a narrative arc, not a feature index:
+
+| Section | Thermal State | Content Strategy |
+|---------|--------------|-----------------|
+| **The Void** | Frozen | Logo breathing in 80vh of darkness. No tagline, no CTA. |
+| **What We Lost** | Cold, cracking | Accusatory text only. No code. Burn-in animation with staggered delays. |
+| **What Remains** | Warming | A single code block alone in the void. No label. Then quiet commentary. |
+| **The Forge** | EXPLOSION | Input (TypeScript) → Output (@layer CSS). Timeline reframed as Soul → Forge → Weapon. |
+| **The Proof** | Hot, controlled | Live extracted components as evidence, not demos. `[extracted]` chips. |
+| **The Question** | Cooling to ember | Return to void. Logo breathing. "The forge is lit." |
+
+**Why over feature grid:** A feature grid says "look what it does." A narrative says "look what we lost and what we can reclaim." The polemic structure creates emotional investment that a product page cannot.
+
+### 2. Staggered Burn-In for the Indictment
+
+The "What We Lost" section uses the existing `burn-in` CSS animation (clip-path reveal from left) with inline `animationDelay` values on each line. This creates the effect of lines appearing one after another, like a typewriter in the dark.
+
+```
+Line 1: "We had names for things."     delay: 0.2s
+Line 2: "We gave them up."             delay: 0.6s
+Line 3: "We had composition."          delay: 1.2s
+Line 4: "We gave it up."               delay: 1.6s
+Line 5: "We had zero runtime."         delay: 2.2s
+Line 6: "We gave it up."               delay: 2.6s
+Line 7: "And we called it progress."   delay: 3.4s (extra gap = verdict)
+```
+
+**Why burn-in over fade-up:** burn-in already exists in global.css, and the clip-path left-to-right reveal is more aggressive — it reads like text being etched, not floating in. Consistent with the forge/scar motif.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Intersection Observer for scroll-triggered reveals. Rejected — adds runtime complexity, and the showcase should prove zero-runtime extraction. CSS animation on mount is sufficient.
+
+### 3. Code-in-Silence (Tartakovsky Principle)
+
+Key code blocks appear with NO labels, NO section markers, NO captions above them. The code block sits alone in generous negative space (py: 96 minimum). Commentary appears BELOW the code, smaller, quieter — like a whisper after a shout.
+
+**Why:** Tartakovsky's Primal demonstrates that the most devastating moments are held frames with no dialogue. A builder chain floating in darkness IS the statement. Adding a label like "Here's how you define a button" domesticates it.
+
+### 4. Inline Animation Styles over New Components
+
+Staggered delays and animation properties are applied via inline `style` props on existing components rather than creating new "animated" component variants.
+
+```tsx
+<Heading style={{
+  animation: 'burn-in 0.6s ease-out forwards',
+  animationDelay: '0.2s',
+  opacity: 0,
+}}>We had names for things.</Heading>
+```
+
+**Why:** Creating AnimatedHeading, AnimatedText etc. would bloat the component surface. Inline style for animation-delay is the minimal intervention — the base component handles all other styling through extraction.
+
+### 5. Voice Rules Encoded in Copy
+
+| Context | Voice | Example |
+|---------|-------|---------|
+| Accusation | First person plural | "We gave them up." |
+| Confession | First person singular | Avoided in v1 — too intimate for a showcase |
+| Confrontation | Second person | "You know what ships." (considered, may be too aggressive) |
+| Technical truth | Impersonal declarative | "The method chain order is the cascade order." |
+| Marketing | NEVER | ~~"Animus provides..."~~ |
+
+**Decision:** v1 uses primarily first-person plural and impersonal declarative. Second person used sparingly. First person singular reserved — if used at all, only in the closing.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Long initial load perception]** → The 80vh void opening means content is below the fold. Visitors might think the page is broken. **Mitigation:** The ember animation on the logo provides life — it's not a blank page, it's a held frame. The mode toggle in the corner signals interactivity.
+
+**[Polemic alienates pragmatists]** → Some visitors want feature lists, not philosophy. **Mitigation:** The Proof section still demonstrates real capabilities (variants, transforms, responsive, extraction). The narrative is the wrapper, not a replacement for substance.
+
+**[Copy tone risks pretension]** → "Notes from Underground" energy can read as try-hard if not executed precisely. **Mitigation:** Keep lines SHORT. Tartakovsky's Primal works because of economy. Every word earns its place. The moment a line sounds literary, cut it.
+
+**[Burn-in animations on slow connections]** → Staggered delays mean the full indictment takes ~4s to reveal. On slow initial paint, this might not start when expected. **Mitigation:** Set `animation-fill-mode: forwards` with `opacity: 0` initial state so lines stay hidden until their animation fires. Worst case, all lines appear at once after fonts load.

+## Why
+
+The showcase app (`packages/showcase/`) currently functions as a generic product page — feature grids, component demos, pipeline visualizations. It answers "what can it do?" but never "why does it exist?" or "what was lost?" The name Animus means fury, spirit, animating force. The showcase should embody that etymology: a polemic about the state of CSS-in-JS, not a marketing page.
+
+Three inspiration streams drive the redesign: Genndy Tartakovsky's *Primal* (flat color fields, silhouette storytelling, held frames, no dialogue), Icecrown Citadel soul forges (creation requires consuming something — every CSS framework consumed developer agency), and Dostoevsky's *Notes from Underground* (confessional, accusatory, painfully self-aware first-person voice).
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Complete rewrite of App.tsx** — from product-page sections to a six-part narrative arc: The Void → What We Lost → What Remains → The Forge → The Proof → The Question
+- **Narrative voice** — first-person plural accusation ("we gave this up"), first-person singular confession, second-person confrontation. Never third-person marketing speak.
+- **Temperature-driven composition** — sections follow a thermal pattern inspired by Primal: cold → cold → cold → EXPLOSION → quiet. Not a gradual warmth.
+- **New CSS animations** — `fade-up` (entrance reveal) and `scar` (horizontal slash divider) added to global.css
+- **SyntaxBlock fix** — remove `borderRadius: '8px'` (violates zero-radius design rule)
+- **index.html font update** — replace DM Serif Display / DM Sans with Barlow Condensed 800 (tokens already reference it, but the font isn't loaded)
+- **Code blocks as heroes** — code blocks sit alone in the void with no captions. The code IS the statement. Tartakovsky's no-dialogue principle applied to technical communication.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Six-part narrative arc structure
+App.tsx SHALL be structured as six sequential sections in this exact order: The Void, What We Lost, What Remains, The Forge, The Proof, The Question. Each section SHALL have a distinct thermal state (frozen → cold → warming → explosion → hot → cooling) that drives its visual composition.
+
+#### Scenario: Section ordering
+- **WHEN** the showcase page loads
+- **THEN** sections appear in order: void (logo), indictment (text), code-in-silence (builder chain), forge (input/output), proof (extracted components), question (closing)
+
+#### Scenario: Thermal state drives background density
+- **WHEN** rendering The Void or What We Lost sections
+- **THEN** background SHALL be `background` (carbon) with minimal vermilion (logo ember only in Void, final line only in Lost)
+- **WHEN** rendering The Forge section
+- **THEN** vermilion SHALL dominate through code block accents, border-left highlights, and glow effects
+
+### Requirement: The Void opening
+The opening section SHALL display only the `animus` logo with ember animation, centered in a minimum 80vh container. No tagline, no CTA buttons, no navigation links SHALL appear in the hero area. The mode toggle SHALL be positioned in the navigation bar but no other interactive elements SHALL appear.
+
+#### Scenario: Void renders minimal content
+- **WHEN** the page loads
+- **THEN** the Void section SHALL show only the Logo component (ember-animated) and a mode toggle
+- **THEN** the section height SHALL be at least 80vh
+- **THEN** no Heading, Text, Button, or Badge components SHALL appear in this section
+
+### Requirement: Indictment text with staggered burn-in
+The "What We Lost" section SHALL display accusatory text lines that animate in sequentially using the `burn-in` CSS animation with staggered `animationDelay` values. Lines SHALL appear in pairs (statement + "We gave it up") with increasing delay. The final line ("And we called it progress.") SHALL have an extended delay gap and SHALL render in the `primary` (vermilion) color while preceding lines render in `text` color.
+
+#### Scenario: Burn-in timing
+- **WHEN** the What We Lost section renders
+- **THEN** each text line SHALL have `animation: burn-in 0.6s ease-out forwards` with `opacity: 0` initial state
+- **THEN** lines SHALL stagger with ~400ms between pairs and ~800ms extra before the final verdict line
+
+#### Scenario: Final line vermilion
+- **WHEN** all indictment lines have animated in
+- **THEN** "And we called it progress." SHALL be colored `primary` (vermilion)
+- **THEN** all preceding lines SHALL be colored `text` (bone in dark mode)
+
+### Requirement: Code-in-silence presentation
+Key code blocks SHALL appear in the void with NO labels, NO section markers, and NO captions above them. Commentary text, when present, SHALL appear BELOW the code block in a smaller, quieter typographic treatment. The code block SHALL be surrounded by generous negative space (minimum py: 96 on containing section).
+
+#### Scenario: What Remains section
+- **WHEN** the What Remains section renders
+- **THEN** a CodeBlock SHALL appear with no Label or Heading preceding it
+- **THEN** commentary text SHALL appear below the code, not above
+
+### Requirement: Forge input/output reveal
+The Forge section SHALL show the transformation from TypeScript builder chain to extracted @layer CSS. It SHALL present "What you write." followed by the builder chain code block, then "What ships." followed by the @layer CSS output, then "Nothing else." The pipeline timeline SHALL be reframed with labels: step 1 = the intent, step 2 = the pipeline, step 3 = the output.
+
+#### Scenario: Forge section content
+- **WHEN** the Forge section renders
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain two code blocks (TypeScript input, CSS output)
+- **THEN** the text "What you write." SHALL precede the TypeScript block
+- **THEN** the text "What ships." SHALL precede the CSS block
+- **THEN** the text "Nothing else." SHALL follow the CSS block
+
+### Requirement: Proof section shows extracted components
+The Proof section SHALL display live components (buttons, badges, transforms, responsive demos) as evidence of extraction, not as feature demos. Each component group SHALL be marked with a `[extracted]` Chip component. The section SHALL open with "Every component on this page was extracted at build time."
+
+#### Scenario: Components as evidence
+- **WHEN** the Proof section renders
+- **THEN** it SHALL include Button variant demos, transform demos (fluid, ratio), and the @layer declaration
+- **THEN** each subsection SHALL have a Chip reading "extracted"

+## Context
+
+The Animus extraction pipeline currently maintains a fragile parity contract: 4 JS transform functions are reimplemented in Rust (`transforms.rs`, ~265 lines), bridged by a manual `TRANSFORM_MAP` in `config.ts`. Custom transforms cannot cross this bridge. The `legacy/` directory (10 files) blocks the `createTransform` export name. Emotion's `Theme` type is woven into `types/theme.ts` and `types/props.ts` despite having zero active production consumers — only legacy integration tests use it.
+
+These are entangled: removing legacy clears the namespace for `createTransform`, which enables named transforms, which makes `TRANSFORM_MAP` and `transforms.rs` dead code, which moves transform execution to JS, which removes the last structural dependency on Emotion types in core.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Config is self-describing: transform identity travels with the function, no external mapping needed
+- Custom transforms work in extraction without Rust changes
+- Remove ~500 lines of dead code (legacy directory + Rust transforms + TRANSFORM_MAP)
+- Core package has zero Emotion dependencies
+- Transform execution happens in JS at build time — one implementation, one source of truth
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing the consumer-facing prop config API (transform field still accepts functions)
+- Modifying the builder chain type-state machine (Animus.ts, AnimusExtended.ts unchanged)
+- Changing how transforms work at runtime in dev mode (createPropertyStyle.ts call pattern preserved)
+- Removing Emotion from the UI package (`packages/ui/`) — that's a separate scope
+- Dynamic transform support (transforms that need runtime context) — future work
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. `createTransform(name, fn)` decorator utility
+
+Transform functions are wrapped via `createTransform` which returns a NEW callable function decorated with `.transformName`. The wrapper is a fresh function (not Object.assign on the original) to prevent shared-reference mutation bugs.
+
+```ts
+type TransformFn = (value: string | number, property?: string, props?: any) => string | number | Record<string, any>;
+type NamedTransform = TransformFn & { transformName: string };
+
+export function createTransform(name: string, fn: TransformFn): NamedTransform {
+  const wrapper: TransformFn = (value, property, props) => fn(value, property, props);
+  return Object.assign(wrapper, { transformName: name }) as NamedTransform;
+}
+```
+
+**Why not string references on config (`addTransform` + `transform: 'name'`):** Decouples definition from usage. Requires a new type parameter on AnimusConfig flowing through 6+ builder classes. Prop configs defined outside the builder chain (`const border = {...}`) can't validate string names against a registry they don't know about.
+
+**Why not bare Function.name:** Destroyed by bundler minification. The framework's correctness would depend on bundler configuration (`keepNames: true`), which is fragile. Function.name is used as a FALLBACK (`entry.transform.transformName ?? entry.transform.name`) for backward compatibility, not as the primary mechanism.
+
+**Why a new wrapper function, not Object.assign on the original:** Two `createTransform` calls with the same underlying function would overwrite each other's `.transformName` if we mutated in place. The wrapper avoids this:
+
+```ts
+const shared = (v) => `${v}px`;
+const a = createTransform('a', shared);  // new function, .transformName = 'a'
+const b = createTransform('b', shared);  // new function, .transformName = 'b'
+// a.transformName === 'a' ✓ (not overwritten)
+```
+
+### 2. Serialization via `.transformName` with `.name` fallback
+
+In `getExtractConfig()`, the TRANSFORM_MAP is replaced with:
+
+```ts
+if (entry.transform) {
+  s.transform = entry.transform.transformName ?? entry.transform.name ?? undefined;
+}
+```
+
+This means:
+- `createTransform`-wrapped transforms: use `.transformName` (primary)
+- Bare named functions from legacy consumers: use `.name` (fallback)
+- Inline anonymous functions: `undefined` → transform not serialized → Rust emits raw value → runtime handles it
+
+### 3. Rust emits raw values + transform metadata, does NOT execute transforms
+
+The Rust pipeline's `theme_resolver.rs` stops calling `apply_transform()`. Instead, when a prop config has a `transform` field, Rust emits:
+- The raw value (after scale lookup but BEFORE transform application)
+- The transform name as metadata
+
+The `transforms.rs` file is deleted entirely. The `apply_transform` dispatch function in `theme_resolver.rs` is removed.
+
+The manifest format gains a transform metadata field per CSS declaration that needs post-processing.
+
+### 4. Vite plugin applies transforms as a JS post-processing step
+
+After `analyze_project()` returns the manifest, the Vite plugin:
+1. Loads the config module to get the actual transform functions
+2. Walks the manifest CSS, finding transform placeholders
+3. For each placeholder: looks up the transform function by name, calls it with the raw value, substitutes the result
+4. The final CSS has all transforms applied
+
+This happens ONCE at build time, not per-render. The performance impact is negligible — there are only ~20 prop definitions with transforms across all groups.
+
+### 5. Legacy directory removal
+
+All 10 files in `packages/core/src/legacy/` are deleted. The `export * from './legacy/core'` line is removed from `index.ts`. Integration tests in `packages/_integration/` that use `animusProps` are updated to use the modern builder API or archived.
+
+This is a **BREAKING** change for any external consumer using `animusProps.create()`, `animusProps.compose()`, etc. These APIs have been superseded by the builder chain since the core rewrite.
+
+### 6. Emotion type removal from core and theming
+
+- `declare module '@emotion/react'` in `types/theme.ts` → deleted
+- `Theme` import from `@emotion/react` in `types/props.ts` → replaced with standalone interface
+- `@emotion/react`, `@emotion/styled`, `@emotion/is-prop-valid` removed from core's `package.json`
+- `Theme` import in `packages/theming/src/utils/serializeTokens.ts` → replaced with `{ breakpoints: Record<string, string> }` parameter type
+- `@emotion/react`, `@emotion/styled` removed from theming's `package.json`
+
+The standalone theme interface in core is minimal — just the shape that the prop system needs for scale resolution and responsive breakpoints.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Transform placeholder format in CSS]** → The format for how Rust emits "raw value + transform name" needs careful design. If it's inline in the CSS string (like a custom function marker), the regex for finding/replacing could be fragile. **Mitigation:** Use the manifest's structured data (JSON) rather than embedding markers in the CSS string itself. The manifest already tracks per-component, per-declaration metadata.
+
+**[Legacy removal is BREAKING]** → External consumers using `animusProps` will break. **Mitigation:** The `animusProps` API was the pre-builder-chain API. The builder chain has been the documented API since the core rewrite. Check npm download stats for `@animus-ui/core` imports of `animusProps` — expected to be zero external usage.
+
+**[Emotion type removal may surface hidden type dependencies]** → Other packages or consumer code may import types that transitively depend on Emotion's `Theme`. **Mitigation:** Run `tsc --noEmit` across the entire monorepo after the change. The smoke test and showcase already verify extracted components type-check.
+
+**[Function.name fallback may mislead]** → A bare function with `.name === ''` (anonymous) silently drops the transform from extraction without any diagnostic. **Mitigation:** In `strict` mode, the extraction report should warn when a transform has no serializable name. This is existing behavior for TRANSFORM_MAP misses.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- **Manifest format for transform metadata:** Should the manifest carry a separate `transforms` map alongside the CSS, or should each CSS declaration carry its own transform info? The former is simpler to post-process; the latter is more self-contained.
+- **Dev-mode transform execution:** In dev mode, transforms run via the Emotion runtime (createPropertyStyle.ts). After Emotion is fully removed from the UI package (future scope), dev mode will need the same build-time transform path. Should we pre-wire that now or defer?

+## Why
+
+The extraction pipeline reimplements 4 JS transform functions in Rust (`size`, `borderShorthand`, `gridItemRatio`, `gridItem`), maintaining a fragile parity contract across two languages. A manual `TRANSFORM_MAP` bridges function references to string identifiers for serialization. Custom transforms cannot cross this bridge — they work at runtime but are silently dropped during extraction. Meanwhile, the `legacy/` directory in core (10 files) occupies the `createTransform` export name with a completely different signature, and threads Emotion's `Theme` type through the type system despite having zero production consumers.
+
+These are symptoms of the same structural issue: the config is not self-describing. Transform identity requires manual mapping, theme types are borrowed from Emotion instead of derived from the system's own data, and dead code blocks the namespace needed for the fix.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Remove `packages/core/src/legacy/` directory** (10 files). Only consumed by integration tests via `animusProps` export. Update or archive integration tests that depend on it.
+- **Remove `export * from './legacy/core'` from core's `index.ts`**. **BREAKING** for any consumer using `animusProps.create()`, `animusProps.compose()`, etc.
+- **Introduce `createTransform` utility** in `packages/core/src/transforms/`. Returns a callable function decorated with `.transformName` via `Object.assign` on a new wrapper function (not in-place mutation). Enforces naming for extraction serialization while preserving the existing function call interface.
+- **Update built-in transforms** (`size`, `borderShorthand`, `gridItemRatio`, `gridItem`) to use `createTransform`.
+- **Replace `TRANSFORM_MAP` in `config.ts`** with computed serialization: `entry.transform.transformName ?? entry.transform.name`. Delete the manual map.
+- **Rust pipeline stops applying transforms**. For props with transforms, Rust emits the raw value + transform name as metadata. No reimplementation, no dispatch.
+- **Vite plugin post-processes transforms in JS**. After receiving Rust's intermediate output, the plugin resolves transform names to functions from the loaded config and applies them to produce final CSS values.
+- **Delete `transforms.rs`** (~265 lines of Rust reimplementations) and the `apply_transform` dispatch in `theme_resolver.rs`.
+- **Remove `declare module '@emotion/react'` from `types/theme.ts`**. Replace with standalone theme interface derived from the system's own types.
+- **Remove `@emotion/react`, `@emotion/styled`, `@emotion/is-prop-valid` from core's `package.json`** dependencies.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `named-transforms`: The `createTransform(name, fn)` utility and the serialization contract for extraction. Covers: the Transform interface, the naming convention, the `.transformName` property protocol, and how the Vite plugin resolves transform names to functions at build time.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: Rust no longer applies transforms. Emits raw values + transform name metadata for transformed props. `transforms.rs` removed. `apply_transform` dispatch removed from `theme_resolver.rs`.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Post-processes Rust output to apply transforms via JS. Loads transform functions from the config module at build time. Resolves transform names to functions and applies them to produce final CSS values.
+- `prop-system`: Transform field on prop config entries now accepts `NamedTransform` (a callable function with `.transformName`). Bare functions still work at runtime but require `.name` preservation for extraction. `createTransform` is the canonical way to define transforms.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/core/src/legacy/`** — Deleted (10 files)
+- **`packages/core/src/index.ts`** — Remove legacy re-export, add `createTransform` export
+- **`packages/core/src/transforms/`** — All 4 transforms updated to use `createTransform`
+- **`packages/core/src/config.ts`** — `TRANSFORM_MAP` deleted, `getExtractConfig()` uses `.transformName ?? .name`
+- **`packages/core/src/types/theme.ts`** — Emotion module augmentation removed, standalone interface
+- **`packages/core/package.json`** — `@emotion/*` dependencies removed
+- **`packages/extract/src/transforms.rs`** — Deleted
+- **`packages/extract/src/theme_resolver.rs`** — `apply_transform` calls removed, emit raw values + metadata
+- **`packages/extract/src/css_generator.rs`** — May need to emit transform placeholders
+- **`packages/extract/src/lib.rs`** — Updated manifest format includes transform metadata
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`** — Transform post-processing step added
+- **`packages/_integration/__tests__/`** — Tests updated to use modern builder API or archived
+- **`packages/theming/src/utils/serializeTokens.ts`** — Replace `Theme` import with local interface
+- **`packages/theming/package.json`** — `@emotion/*` dependencies removed

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: createTransform utility function
+The `@animus-ui/core` package SHALL export a `createTransform(name, fn)` function that accepts a string identifier and a transform function, and returns a new callable function decorated with a `.transformName` property. The returned function SHALL be a NEW function that delegates to the original (not a mutation of the original).
+
+#### Scenario: Basic createTransform usage
+- **WHEN** `const size = createTransform('size', (v) => typeof v === 'number' ? percentageOrAbsolute(v) : v)` is called
+- **THEN** `size(4)` SHALL return `'4px'` AND `size.transformName` SHALL equal `'size'`
+
+#### Scenario: Returned function is callable with original signature
+- **WHEN** a `NamedTransform` is called as `transform(value, property, props)`
+- **THEN** it SHALL delegate to the wrapped function with the same arguments and return its result
+
+#### Scenario: Shared function reference safety
+- **WHEN** the same underlying function is passed to two different `createTransform` calls (`createTransform('a', fn)` and `createTransform('b', fn)`)
+- **THEN** the first result SHALL have `.transformName === 'a'` AND the second SHALL have `.transformName === 'b'` — neither overwrites the other
+
+#### Scenario: NamedTransform satisfies TransformFn type
+- **WHEN** a `NamedTransform` is assigned to a slot typed as `TransformFn` (the bare function type used in prop configs)
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL accept the assignment without error — `NamedTransform` is a subtype of `TransformFn`
+
+### Requirement: Built-in transforms use createTransform
+All built-in transform functions exported from `@animus-ui/core` SHALL be wrapped with `createTransform`. The transform names SHALL match the identifiers currently used in serialization: `'size'`, `'borderShorthand'`, `'gridItemRatio'`, `'gridItem'`.
+
+#### Scenario: size transform is named
+- **WHEN** the `size` export from `@animus-ui/core` is inspected
+- **THEN** `size.transformName` SHALL equal `'size'`
+
+#### Scenario: borderShorthand transform is named
+- **WHEN** the `borderShorthand` export from `@animus-ui/core` is inspected
+- **THEN** `borderShorthand.transformName` SHALL equal `'borderShorthand'`
+
+#### Scenario: gridItemRatio transform is named
+- **WHEN** the `gridItemRatio` export from `@animus-ui/core` is inspected
+- **THEN** `gridItemRatio.transformName` SHALL equal `'gridItemRatio'`
+
+#### Scenario: gridItem transform is named
+- **WHEN** the `gridItem` export from `@animus-ui/core` is inspected
+- **THEN** `gridItem.transformName` SHALL equal `'gridItem'`
+
+### Requirement: Serialization uses transformName with name fallback
+The `getExtractConfig()` function SHALL serialize transform identifiers by reading `.transformName` from the transform function. If `.transformName` is not present, it SHALL fall back to `Function.name`. If neither produces a non-empty string, the transform SHALL be omitted from serialization.
+
+#### Scenario: createTransform-wrapped function serializes correctly
+- **WHEN** a prop config has `transform: createTransform('size', fn)` and `getExtractConfig()` serializes it
+- **THEN** the serialized entry SHALL have `"transform": "size"`
+
+#### Scenario: Bare named function falls back to Function.name
+- **WHEN** a prop config has `transform: myCustomFn` where `myCustomFn` is a `const`-assigned function (`.name === 'myCustomFn'`, no `.transformName`)
+- **THEN** the serialized entry SHALL have `"transform": "myCustomFn"`
+
+#### Scenario: Anonymous function omits transform
+- **WHEN** a prop config has `transform: (v) => v` (anonymous, no `.transformName`, `.name === ''`)
+- **THEN** the serialized entry SHALL NOT include a `transform` field
+
+#### Scenario: TRANSFORM_MAP is no longer used
+- **WHEN** `getExtractConfig()` serializes transforms
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT reference any static `Map<Function, string>` — the mapping is derived from the function's own properties
+
+### Requirement: Custom transforms follow the same protocol
+Users defining custom transforms for their design system SHALL use `createTransform` to ensure extraction compatibility. Custom transforms created via `createTransform` SHALL be serialized and post-processed identically to built-in transforms.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom transform in custom config
+- **WHEN** a user defines `const fluid = createTransform('fluid', (v) => ...)` and uses it in `createAnimus().addGroup('text', { fontSize: { property: 'font-size', transform: fluid } })`
+- **THEN** `getExtractConfig()` SHALL serialize the transform as `"transform": "fluid"` AND the Vite plugin SHALL apply the `fluid` function at build time
+
+#### Scenario: Custom transform with same name as built-in
+- **WHEN** a user defines `const size = createTransform('size', (v) => `${v}rem`)` overriding the built-in size behavior
+- **THEN** the user's transform function SHALL be used (the config's function reference takes precedence), and serialization SHALL produce `"transform": "size"`

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Prop definitions support transform functions
+Each prop definition SHALL support a `transform` field containing a transform function that converts prop values to CSS values. Transforms SHALL run AFTER scale resolution. The transform field SHALL accept both `NamedTransform` (created via `createTransform`) and bare `TransformFn` functions. `NamedTransform` is the canonical form for extraction compatibility.
+
+#### Scenario: Size transform converts numbers
+- **WHEN** a prop `width` has `transform: size` (where `size` is a `NamedTransform` with `.transformName === 'size'`) and receives value `0.5`
+- **THEN** the transform SHALL convert `0.5` to `'50%'` (fractional numbers 0-1 become percentages)
+
+#### Scenario: Size transform handles pixels
+- **WHEN** a prop `width` has `transform: size` and receives value `100`
+- **THEN** the transform SHALL convert `100` to `'100px'` (numbers > 1 become pixel values)
+
+#### Scenario: Size transform passes strings through
+- **WHEN** a prop `width` has `transform: size` and receives value `'auto'`
+- **THEN** the transform SHALL return `'auto'` unchanged
+
+#### Scenario: NamedTransform is callable at runtime
+- **WHEN** `createPropertyStyle` encounters a `NamedTransform` in a prop config's `transform` field
+- **THEN** it SHALL call `transform(value, property, props)` directly — the `NamedTransform` is a callable function, no special handling needed
+
+#### Scenario: Bare function still works at runtime
+- **WHEN** a prop config uses a bare function `transform: (v) => `${v}px`` (no `createTransform` wrapper)
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL call it identically — `createPropertyStyle` does not distinguish between `NamedTransform` and bare `TransformFn`
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Prop forwarding filters system props from DOM
+**Reason:** The `@emotion/is-prop-valid` dependency is removed from core. Prop forwarding responsibility moves to the runtime shim (`@animus-ui/runtime`) which uses its own prop filtering based on the registered prop names from the config, without Emotion's validation.
+**Migration:** The runtime shim's `createComponent` already handles prop forwarding by filtering known system prop names from the DOM element props. The `shouldForwardProp` pattern from Emotion's `styled()` is not needed when components are extracted.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Theme scale resolution
+The theme resolver SHALL accept a flattened theme JSON map (`{ "scale_name.key": "css_value" }`) and resolve style values against it. For each style property, the resolver SHALL look up the prop config to determine the CSS property name, scale name, and transform identifier. When a prop config has a `transform` field, the resolver SHALL emit the resolved value (after scale lookup) WITHOUT applying the transform, and SHALL include the transform name in the output metadata. Transform application is deferred to the Vite plugin's JS post-processing step.
+
+#### Scenario: Resolve scale lookup
+- **WHEN** prop is `p` with value `8`, config says `{ property: "padding", scale: "space" }`, and theme has `{ "space.8": "0.5rem" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL produce `{ "padding": "0.5rem" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Resolve color mode variable
+- **WHEN** prop is `color` with value `"background"`, config says `{ property: "color", scale: "colors" }`, and theme has `{ "colors.background": "var(--colors-background)" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL produce `{ "color": "var(--colors-background)" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Emit raw value with transform metadata
+- **WHEN** prop is `width` with value `1`, config says `{ property: "width", transform: "size" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL emit `{ "width": 1 }` as the raw value AND include metadata `{ property: "width", transform: "size", raw_value: 1 }` for post-processing
+
+#### Scenario: Scale lookup before transform deferral
+- **WHEN** prop is `borderRadius` with value `4`, config says `{ property: "borderRadius", scale: "radii", transform: "size" }`, and theme has `{ "radii.4": "4" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL look up the scale first (getting `"4"`), then emit that as the raw value with transform metadata `{ property: "borderRadius", transform: "size", raw_value: "4" }` — scale resolution happens in Rust, transform application happens in JS
+
+#### Scenario: No scale defined, transform deferred
+- **WHEN** prop is `top` with value `100`, config says `{ property: "top", transform: "size" }` (no scale)
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL emit `{ "top": 100 }` as the raw value with transform metadata — no scale lookup, transform deferred
+
+#### Scenario: No transform, value passes through
+- **WHEN** prop is `display` with value `"flex"`, config says `{ property: "display" }` (no scale, no transform)
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL produce `{ "display": "flex" }` with no transform metadata
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-property expansion with transform deferred
+- **WHEN** prop is `inset` with value `0`, config says `{ properties: ["top","right","bottom","left"], transform: "size" }`

+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Apply size transform
+**Reason:** Transform execution moves to JS post-processing in the Vite plugin. Rust no longer applies any transforms.
+**Migration:** The Vite plugin's post-processing step applies the `size` transform function from the loaded config module.
+
+### Requirement: Apply borderShorthand transform
+**Reason:** Transform execution moves to JS post-processing in the Vite plugin.
+**Migration:** The Vite plugin's post-processing step applies the `borderShorthand` transform function from the loaded config module.
+
+### Requirement: Apply gridItemRatio transform
+**Reason:** Transform execution moves to JS post-processing in the Vite plugin.
+**Migration:** The Vite plugin's post-processing step applies the `gridItemRatio` transform function from the loaded config module.
+
+### Requirement: Transform dispatch by string identifier
+**Reason:** The `apply_transform(name, value)` dispatch function is no longer needed — Rust does not execute transforms.
+**Migration:** Transform names are passed through as metadata. The Vite plugin resolves names to functions and executes them.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Transform post-processing
+The Vite plugin SHALL apply transform functions to the Rust pipeline's intermediate output as a JS post-processing step. After `analyze_project()` returns a manifest containing raw values and transform metadata, the plugin SHALL resolve each transform name to the actual JS function from the loaded config and apply it to produce final CSS values.
+
+#### Scenario: Post-process size transform
+- **WHEN** the manifest contains a declaration `{ property: "width", transform: "size", raw_value: 1 }`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL look up the `size` function from the config, call `size(1)`, and replace the raw value with `"100%"` in the final CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Post-process borderShorthand transform
+- **WHEN** the manifest contains a declaration `{ property: "border", transform: "borderShorthand", raw_value: 2 }`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL call `borderShorthand(2)` and replace the raw value with `"2px solid currentColor"` in the final CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Post-process custom transform
+- **WHEN** the manifest contains `{ property: "font-size", transform: "fluid", raw_value: 16 }` and the loaded config includes a transform named `"fluid"`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL call the `fluid` function with `16` and substitute the result into the final CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Unknown transform name produces warning
+- **WHEN** the manifest contains a transform name that does not match any function in the loaded config
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL emit a warning in the extraction report and use the raw value as-is
+
+### Requirement: Transform registry built from config
+The Vite plugin SHALL build a transform registry (`Map<string, TransformFn>`) from the loaded config module at `buildStart`. The registry maps transform names (from `.transformName` properties) to the actual JS functions.
+
+#### Scenario: Registry from default config
+- **WHEN** the plugin loads `@animus-ui/core` config at build start
+- **THEN** the transform registry SHALL contain entries for `'size'`, `'borderShorthand'`, `'gridItemRatio'`, and `'gridItem'`
+
+#### Scenario: Registry from custom config
+- **WHEN** the plugin loads a custom config that includes `createTransform('fluid', fn)`
+- **THEN** the transform registry SHALL contain `'fluid'` in addition to any built-in transforms
+
+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Prop config serialization
+The plugin SHALL serialize the prop configuration from `@animus-ui/core` into a JSON map at build start. Each prop entry SHALL include `property`, `properties` (if multi-property), `scale` (if theme-linked), and `transform` (as a string identifier derived from `.transformName ?? .name`, or omitted if not available).
+
+#### Scenario: Serialize prop with scale and transform
+- **WHEN** config has `borderRadius: { property: 'borderRadius', scale: 'radii', transform: size }` where `size.transformName === 'size'`
+- **THEN** the serialized entry SHALL be `{ "property": "borderRadius", "scale": "radii", "transform": "size" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Serialize multi-property prop
+- **WHEN** config has `px: { property: 'padding', properties: ['paddingLeft', 'paddingRight'], scale: 'space' }`
+- **THEN** the serialized entry SHALL include both `property` and `properties` array
+
+#### Scenario: Serialize prop with unnamed transform
+- **WHEN** config has `width: { property: 'width', transform: (v) => v }` (anonymous function, no `.transformName`, `.name === ''`)
+- **THEN** the serialized entry SHALL NOT include a `transform` field — the transform is only available at runtime

+## Context
+
+The Animus extraction pipeline currently handles two kinds of style values:
+
+1. **Implicit scale lookup**: Bare values on known props (`p: 8`, `color: 'primary'`) where the prop config maps to a scale and the theme resolver does `theme["scale.key"]`. This is the existing pipeline.
+2. **Literal pass-through**: String values that don't match a scale (`display: 'flex'`) pass through as CSS.
+
+There is no mechanism for referencing design tokens inside compound CSS strings like `border: '1px solid <some-token>'`. Developers must hard-code CSS variable names (`var(--colors-primary)`) or abandon extraction.
+
+**Theme object internals (verified in code):**
+- `theme._variables` contains CSS variable declarations keyed by scope (`root`, `mode`, `shadows`, etc.), e.g. `{ root: { '--colors-pink-500': '#ff80bf' } }`
+- `theme._tokens` contains raw color values (pre-CSS-variable), used by the Background component for contrast computation
+- `flattenScale()` (both in theming and vite-plugin) uses **hyphen** separators for nested keys and **elides `_` defaults** — so `{ text: { _: 'navy-700', shadow: 'navy-900' } }` becomes `{ text: 'navy-700', 'text-shadow': 'navy-900' }`
+- The vite-plugin's flat key format is `"scaleName.hyphen-joined-path"` — e.g., `"colors.pink-600"`, `"colors.text"`, `"space.8"`
+- The runtime uses lodash `_.get()` with dot paths on the nested theme object
+
+**Current serialization to Rust**: `theme-evaluator.ts` produces a single flat `HashMap<String, String>` mapping `"scale.key"` to CSS value strings (e.g., `"colors.primary"` → `"var(--colors-primary)"`). Private keys (`_tokens`, `_variables`) are skipped.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Enable `{scale.path}` syntax in string style values for compile-time token resolution
+- Enable `{scale.path/N}` alpha modifier producing CSS `color-mix()`
+- Use lodash-style dot paths (matching the runtime convention) in the alias syntax
+- Augment theme serialization with variable-name data from `theme._variables`
+- Keep the change minimal — no runtime changes, no builder API changes
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Nested token references (`{colors.{mode}.primary}`) — not supported
+- Runtime token resolution — this is purely compile-time
+- Arbitrary expression evaluation inside `{}` — only static token paths
+- Complex typed compound values (e.g., typed border templates) — future feature that builds ON token alias
+- Changing the existing implicit scale lookup — `p: 8` continues to work unchanged
+- Restructuring the flat theme map — we augment it, not replace it
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Dot-path syntax matching lodash `_.get()` convention
+
+Token aliases use dots: `{colors.pink.600}`, not hyphens.
+
+**Why**: The runtime scale lookup already uses lodash `_.get(theme, 'colors.pink.600')` on the nested object. Developers think in dots. The alias syntax should match what they already write.
+
+**Conversion to flat key**: First segment is the scale name, remaining segments join with hyphens. `{colors.pink.600}` → flat key `colors.pink-600`. This matches the hyphen separator in `flattenScale()`.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Using the flat key format directly (`{colors.pink-600}`). Rejected because it forces developers to know the flattening convention, which is an internal detail.
+
+### 2. Alpha modifier via `/N` producing `color-mix()`
+
+`{colors.primary/50}` → `color-mix(in srgb, var(--colors-primary) 50%, transparent)`
+
+**Why**: CSS-native `color-mix()` works with CSS variables (unlike rgba manipulation which needs raw values). This means alpha interpolation stays mode-aware — `var(--colors-primary)` changes per color mode, and the alpha just works.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Using raw color values from `_tokens` and building `rgba()`. Rejected because it breaks color mode awareness — the extracted CSS would have the wrong color in the other mode.
+
+### 3. Augment theme serialization with variable-name map
+
+Pass a second JSON map to Rust alongside the existing flat values:
+```json
+{ "colors.primary": "--colors-primary", "shadows.lg": "--shadows-lg" }
+```
+
+Built by inverting `theme._variables`: iterate each scope's declarations, convert the CSS variable name back to a token path.
+
+**Why**: Constructing `color-mix(in srgb, var(--name) ...)` requires knowing the variable name. Extracting it from the existing `"var(--name)"` string is fragile. A dedicated map is explicit.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Parsing `"var(--name)"` strings to extract variable names. Rejected — brittle, assumes format consistency.
+
+### 4. Resolution lives in `theme_resolver.rs`
+
+Token alias resolution happens during theme resolution, not during style evaluation. When `resolve_single_prop` encounters a string value, it scans for `{...}` patterns and resolves each one before emitting the CSS declaration.
+
+**Why**: Co-locates all theme-dependent resolution in one module. The style evaluator stays format-agnostic (it just sees string literals). The theme resolver already has access to the theme data.
+
+### 5. String scanning only in already-evaluated string literals
+
+The style evaluator classifies `'1px solid {colors.primary}'` as a static string literal (it contains no JS expressions). The `{` is just a character in the string, not a JS expression delimiter. Token alias scanning happens AFTER style evaluation, in the theme resolver.
+
+**Why**: Clean separation — style evaluator determines static vs dynamic (JS semantics), theme resolver handles token resolution (design system semantics). No change to the bail/skip logic.
+
+### 6. `_` default is implicit — not specified in alias path
+
+`{colors.text}` resolves the `_` default of the nested `text` object (flat key: `colors.text`). Writing `{colors.text._}` is NOT supported — it would produce flat key `colors.text-_` which doesn't exist.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+### Grounded Risks
+
+**[Risk: `{` in CSS content values]** The string `{` can appear naturally in CSS `content` property values (e.g., `content: '{'`). The scanner would false-positive.
+→ **Mitigation**: Only scan strings that are values of CSS properties that accept token references. `content` is a passthrough property (no scale, no transform) — token aliases in passthrough properties are likely rare but need a documented escape hatch or a decision to not scan passthrough values.
+
+**[Risk: color-mix() browser support]** `color-mix()` requires Chrome 111+, Firefox 113+, Safari 16.2+.
+→ **Mitigation**: Check if the project has a documented browser floor. If older browsers are needed, alpha interpolation could fall back to emitting the base color without opacity (degraded but functional).
+
+### Ungrounded Assumptions (Red Team Flags)
+
+These are assumptions made during exploration that need verification before or during implementation:
+
+**[FLAG 1: Two flattenScale functions]** The theming package and the vite plugin each have their OWN `flattenScale`. We verified both use hyphens, but: do they produce IDENTICAL keys for the same input? The theming version has `_` elision logic. The vite plugin version does NOT appear to handle `_` specially. If the vite plugin flattens a scale that has `_` defaults, the keys may differ from what the theming package produced.
+→ **Action**: Test with a real theme containing nested semantic tokens with `_` defaults. Compare the flat keys from both functions.
+
+**[FLAG 2: _variables key format → token path mapping]** We assume we can build a reverse map from `_variables` CSS var names to token paths. The `_variables` structure is `{ scope: { '--colors-pink-500': '#ff80bf' } }`. Converting `--colors-pink-500` back to a token path `colors.pink.500` requires knowing the separator convention and the scale name prefix. This is the INVERSE of `serializeTokens` — we haven't verified that inversion is lossless.
+→ **Action**: Read `serializeTokens.ts` to understand the variable naming convention. Check if any scale produces variable names that can't be unambiguously reversed to token paths.
+
+**[FLAG 3: resolve-transforms.ts interaction]** The vite plugin has a `resolve-transforms.ts` file that we haven't read. It was added recently. If it modifies how CSS values flow through the pipeline, token alias resolution might need to coordinate with it.
+→ **Action**: Read `resolve-transforms.ts` before implementation to understand the interaction surface.
+
+**[FLAG 4: Scales with no entry in _variables]** Not all scales emit CSS variables — only those that called `createScaleVariables()`. For non-variable scales (e.g., `space`, `radii`), `{space.8}` should resolve to the literal value `"0.5rem"`. We assume the flat value map always has the literal for these. But what if some scale values are objects or arrays rather than strings after flattening?
+→ **Action**: Verify that all flat theme values are strings. Check edge cases like array values in scales.
+
+**[FLAG 5: addScale with compute function]** Scales created via `.addScale('shadows', (theme) => ({...}))` are computed from other scales. After evaluation, are these values stored as CSS var references or raw values in the flat map? The answer determines whether `{shadows.lg}` resolves to a var or a literal.
+→ **Action**: Check a real theme's `shadows` scale entries in the flat map.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+1. **Escape hatch**: How should a developer write a literal `{` in a string value without triggering alias resolution? Options: `\\{`, `{{`, or "just don't" (document that `{` triggers scanning).
+
+2. **Error on unresolved alias**: If `{colors.nonexistent}` doesn't match any theme key, should the compiler emit a warning (like per-property skip) or an error? Leaning toward warning + passthrough of the raw string, matching the skip-not-bail philosophy.
+
+3. **Alpha modifier range**: Should `/N` be 0-100 (percentage) or 0-1 (decimal)? Chakra uses 0-100. CSS `color-mix()` uses percentages. Recommend 0-100 for consistency with both.
+
+4. **Multiple aliases in one value**: `'0 4px 12px {colors.primary/20}'` has one alias. `'{space.4} {space.8}'` has two. The scanner must handle multiple `{...}` patterns in a single string. This is straightforward but should be explicitly tested.

+## Why
+
+Style values that compose multiple CSS tokens — borders, shadows, gradients, shorthand properties — cannot currently reference design system tokens inline. A developer writing `border: '1px solid primaryColor'` must either hard-code the CSS variable name (`var(--colors-primary)`) or abandon extraction for that property. Token alias syntax (`{colors.primary}`) gives developers a compile-time shorthand that resolves to the correct CSS variable or literal value during extraction, using the same lodash `_.get()` dot-path convention the runtime already uses for scale lookups. The `/N` alpha modifier (`{colors.primary/50}`) solves the long-standing color-with-opacity problem via CSS-native `color-mix()`.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- New `{scale.path}` syntax recognized inside string literal style values during Rust extraction
+- New `{scale.path/N}` alpha modifier syntax producing `color-mix(in srgb, var(...) N%, transparent)`
+- Theme serializer (`theme-evaluator.ts`) augmented to emit a variable-name map alongside the existing flat value map, built from `theme._variables`
+- Rust `theme_resolver.rs` extended with token alias resolution: string scanning, dot-path-to-flat-key conversion, variable lookup, alpha interpolation
+- Rust `style_evaluator.rs` updated: string literals containing `{...}` patterns are still classified as static (not bailed/skipped)
+- No runtime changes — token alias is purely a compile-time feature
+- No breaking changes to existing API — bare values on known props (`p: 8`, `color: 'primary'`) continue to use the existing implicit scale lookup
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `token-alias-syntax`: Compile-time `{scale.path}` reference syntax in string style values, including alpha modifier, dot-path resolution, and variable-name-aware theme lookup
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: Static style evaluation must recognize `{...}` patterns in string literals as resolvable (not skip/bail). Theme resolver gains token alias resolution alongside existing scale resolution.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Theme serializer must emit a variable-name map (`token_path → css_variable_name`) in addition to the existing flat value map.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Rust crate** (`packages/extract/`): `theme_resolver.rs` gains new resolution path; `style_evaluator.rs` string handling unchanged but downstream consumers must handle alias markers; `lib.rs` deserialization updated for new theme format
+- **Vite plugin** (`packages/vite-plugin/`): `theme-evaluator.ts` builds and serializes variable-name map from `theme._variables`; plugin passes augmented theme JSON to Rust
+- **Theme package** (`packages/theming/`): No changes — `_variables` and `_tokens` already exist on the theme object
+- **Core package** (`packages/core/`): No changes — prop config unchanged
+- **Browser target**: `color-mix()` requires modern browsers (Chrome 111+, Firefox 113+, Safari 16.2+). If the project has an older browser floor, alpha interpolation needs a fallback strategy.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Theme scale resolution
+The theme resolver SHALL accept a flattened theme JSON map (`{ "scale_name.key": "css_value" }`) AND a variable-name map (`{ "token_path": "css_variable_name" }`) and resolve style values against them. For each style property, the resolver SHALL look up the prop config to determine the CSS property name, scale name, and transform identifier. When a prop config has a `transform` field, the resolver SHALL emit the resolved value (after scale lookup) WITHOUT applying the transform, and SHALL include the transform name in the output metadata. Transform application is deferred to the Vite plugin's JS post-processing step. When a resolved string value (after scale lookup) contains `{...}` token alias patterns, the resolver SHALL resolve each alias using the variable-name map and flat value map before emitting the CSS declaration.
+
+#### Scenario: Resolve scale lookup
+- **WHEN** prop is `p` with value `8`, config says `{ property: "padding", scale: "space" }`, and theme has `{ "space.8": "0.5rem" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL produce `{ "padding": "0.5rem" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Resolve color mode variable
+- **WHEN** prop is `color` with value `"background"`, config says `{ property: "color", scale: "colors" }`, and theme has `{ "colors.background": "var(--colors-background)" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL produce `{ "color": "var(--colors-background)" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Emit raw value with transform metadata
+- **WHEN** prop is `width` with value `1`, config says `{ property: "width", transform: "size" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL emit `{ "width": 1 }` as the raw value AND include metadata `{ property: "width", transform: "size", raw_value: 1 }` for post-processing
+
+#### Scenario: Scale lookup before transform deferral
+- **WHEN** prop is `borderRadius` with value `4`, config says `{ property: "borderRadius", scale: "radii", transform: "size" }`, and theme has `{ "radii.4": "4" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL look up the scale first (getting `"4"`), then emit that as the raw value with transform metadata `{ property: "borderRadius", transform: "size", raw_value: "4" }` — scale resolution happens in Rust, transform application happens in JS
+
+#### Scenario: No scale defined, transform deferred
+- **WHEN** prop is `top` with value `100`, config says `{ property: "top", transform: "size" }` (no scale)
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL emit `{ "top": 100 }` as the raw value with transform metadata — no scale lookup, transform deferred
+
+#### Scenario: No transform, value passes through
+- **WHEN** prop is `display` with value `"flex"`, config says `{ property: "display" }` (no scale, no transform)
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL produce `{ "display": "flex" }` with no transform metadata
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-property expansion with transform deferred
+- **WHEN** prop is `inset` with value `0`, config says `{ properties: ["top","right","bottom","left"], transform: "size" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL emit raw values for all four properties with transform metadata for each
+
+#### Scenario: String value with token alias resolved during theme resolution
+- **WHEN** prop is `border` with value `"1px solid {colors.primary}"`, config has no scale for `border`, variable map has `"colors.primary" → "--colors-primary"`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL scan the string for `{...}` patterns, resolve `{colors.primary}` to `var(--colors-primary)`, and produce `{ "border": "1px solid var(--colors-primary)" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Token alias with alpha in compound value
+- **WHEN** prop is `boxShadow` with value `"0 4px 12px {colors.primary/20}"`, variable map has `"colors.primary" → "--colors-primary"`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL resolve `{colors.primary/20}` to `color-mix(in srgb, var(--colors-primary) 20%, transparent)` and produce the complete compound CSS value

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Token alias syntax in string style values
+The extraction pipeline SHALL recognize `{scale.path}` patterns inside string literal style values and resolve them at compile time against the theme. A string containing one or more `{...}` patterns SHALL be classified as static (not skipped or bailed) by the style evaluator, and each alias SHALL be resolved to either a CSS variable reference or a literal value during theme resolution.
+
+#### Scenario: Single token alias in a string
+- **WHEN** a style value is `'1px solid {colors.primary}'` and theme has variable `--colors-primary` for token `colors.primary`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS value SHALL be `1px solid var(--colors-primary)`
+
+#### Scenario: Token alias as entire value
+- **WHEN** a style value is `'{colors.primary}'`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS value SHALL be `var(--colors-primary)` — alias works as standalone value, not only embedded in compounds
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple aliases in one value
+- **WHEN** a style value is `'{space.4} {space.8}'` and theme has literal values `space.4 → "0.25rem"`, `space.8 → "0.5rem"`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS value SHALL be `0.25rem 0.5rem`
+
+#### Scenario: Alias in box-shadow compound
+- **WHEN** a style value is `'0 4px 12px {colors.primary/20}'`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS value SHALL resolve the alias (with alpha) and produce the compound value with the resolved token embedded
+
+#### Scenario: No aliases in plain string
+- **WHEN** a style value is `'1px solid red'` (no `{...}` pattern)
+- **THEN** the value SHALL pass through unchanged — no scanning overhead for strings without braces
+
+#### Scenario: String with alias is still classified as static
+- **WHEN** the style evaluator encounters `border: '1px solid {colors.primary}'`
+- **THEN** it SHALL classify the value as a static string literal — the `{` is a character in the string, not a JS expression delimiter
+
+### Requirement: Dot-path resolution with hyphen conversion
+Token alias paths SHALL use dot notation matching the lodash `_.get()` convention used at runtime. The resolver SHALL convert dot paths to flat theme keys by treating the first segment as the scale name and joining remaining segments with hyphens.
+
+#### Scenario: Simple one-level path
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.primary}`
+- **THEN** the flat key lookup SHALL be `"colors.primary"`
+
+#### Scenario: Nested path with dot-to-hyphen conversion
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.pink.600}`
+- **THEN** the flat key lookup SHALL be `"colors.pink-600"` — `pink` and `600` joined with hyphen
+
+#### Scenario: Deeply nested path
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.gradient.pink.soft}`
+- **THEN** the flat key lookup SHALL be `"colors.gradient-pink-soft"`
+
+#### Scenario: Default value (elided underscore)
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.text}` and the theme has semantic token `text: { _: 'navy-700', shadow: 'navy-900' }`
+- **THEN** the flat key lookup SHALL be `"colors.text"` — the `_` default is already elided in the flat key
+
+#### Scenario: Non-color scale
+- **WHEN** alias is `{space.8}`
+- **THEN** the flat key lookup SHALL be `"space.8"` — single-level paths have no hyphen conversion
+
+### Requirement: Alpha modifier on token aliases
+Token aliases SHALL support an optional `/N` suffix where N is an integer 0-100 representing an opacity percentage. The resolver SHALL produce a CSS `color-mix()` expression wrapping the resolved token.
+
+#### Scenario: 50% opacity on variable-backed token
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.primary/50}` and token `colors.primary` has variable `--colors-primary`
+- **THEN** the resolved value SHALL be `color-mix(in srgb, var(--colors-primary) 50%, transparent)`
+
+#### Scenario: Full opacity (100)
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.primary/100}`
+- **THEN** the resolved value SHALL be `var(--colors-primary)` — 100% opacity is identity, no color-mix wrapper needed
+
+#### Scenario: Zero opacity
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.primary/0}`
+- **THEN** the resolved value SHALL be `transparent` — 0% of any color is transparent
+
+#### Scenario: Alpha on non-variable token
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.pink.500/30}` and `colors.pink-500` resolves to literal `"#ff80bf"` (no CSS variable)
+- **THEN** the resolved value SHALL be `color-mix(in srgb, #ff80bf 30%, transparent)` — color-mix works with literals too
+
+#### Scenario: Alpha in compound value
+- **WHEN** a style value is `'0 4px 12px {colors.primary/20}'`
+- **THEN** the `{colors.primary/20}` portion SHALL be replaced with the color-mix expression, embedded in the compound value
+
+### Requirement: Variable-aware theme resolution
+The Rust extraction pipeline SHALL accept a variable-name map alongside the existing flat value map. For each token alias, the resolver SHALL check the variable map first: if present, resolve to `var(--name)`; if absent, resolve to the literal value from the flat map.
+
+#### Scenario: Token with CSS variable
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.primary}` and variable map has `"colors.primary" → "--colors-primary"`
+- **THEN** the resolved value SHALL be `var(--colors-primary)`
+
+#### Scenario: Token without CSS variable
+- **WHEN** alias is `{space.8}` and variable map has no entry for `"space.8"`, but flat map has `"space.8" → "0.5rem"`
+- **THEN** the resolved value SHALL be `0.5rem`
+
+#### Scenario: Token not found in either map
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.nonexistent}` and neither map has a matching entry
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL emit a warning diagnostic (format: `[alias] ComponentName: unresolved token '{colors.nonexistent}'`) and leave the alias text in place as-is
+
+#### Scenario: Variable map passed to Rust
+- **WHEN** the Vite plugin serializes the theme at build start
+- **THEN** it SHALL pass a JSON variable-name map `{ "token.path": "--css-var-name" }` to the Rust pipeline alongside the existing flat value map
+
+### Requirement: Token alias diagnostics
+Unresolved token aliases SHALL produce warning diagnostics in the extraction output, following the same pattern as per-property skip warnings.
+
+#### Scenario: Unresolved alias warning format
+- **WHEN** alias `{colors.typo}` in component `Hero` cannot be resolved
+- **THEN** `ExtractionResult.errors` SHALL contain `"[alias] Hero: unresolved token '{colors.typo}'"`
+
+#### Scenario: Resolved aliases produce no warnings
+- **WHEN** all aliases in a component resolve successfully
+- **THEN** no alias-related entries SHALL appear in `ExtractionResult.errors`
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple unresolved aliases produce multiple warnings
+- **WHEN** a component has `'1px {borders.typo} {colors.typo}'`
+- **THEN** `ExtractionResult.errors` SHALL contain one warning per unresolved alias

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Theme evaluation at build start
+The plugin SHALL evaluate the theme module at `buildStart` using Vite's `ssrLoadModule()`. It SHALL flatten all theme scales into a JSON map of `{ "scale_name.key": "css_value" }` format AND build a variable-name map of `{ "token_path": "css_variable_name" }` from the theme's CSS variable declarations. Both maps SHALL be held in memory for passing to the Rust extraction functions.
+
+#### Scenario: Theme with computed scales
+- **WHEN** the theme uses `.addScale('shadows', ({ colors }) => ({...}))` with function-based scale definitions
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL evaluate the full theme build chain, resolving all function-based scales to their final values, and include them in the flattened JSON map
+
+#### Scenario: Theme with color modes
+- **WHEN** the theme uses `.addColorModes()` generating CSS custom properties
+- **THEN** the flattened map SHALL contain CSS variable references (e.g., `"colors.background": "var(--colors-background)"`) rather than raw color values
+
+#### Scenario: Variable-name map built from theme
+- **WHEN** the theme has CSS variable declarations (from `.addColors()`, `.addColorModes()`, `.createScaleVariables()`)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL build a variable-name map where each key is the token path (e.g., `"colors.primary"`) and each value is the CSS variable name (e.g., `"--colors-primary"`)
+
+#### Scenario: Non-variable scales excluded from variable map
+- **WHEN** a scale (e.g., `space`, `fontSizes`) does not emit CSS variables
+- **THEN** tokens from that scale SHALL NOT appear in the variable-name map — they resolve to literal values via the flat map only
+
+#### Scenario: Variable map passed to Rust functions
+- **WHEN** the plugin calls `extract()` or `analyze_project()`
+- **THEN** it SHALL pass the variable-name map JSON as an additional argument alongside the existing theme, config, and group registry JSON arguments

+## 1. Verify Assumptions (Red Team Flags)
+
+- [x] 1.1 Read `packages/theming/src/utils/flattenScale.ts` and `packages/vite-plugin/src/theme-evaluator.ts` flattenScale — confirm both produce identical keys for nested scales with `_` defaults. Document any divergence.
+- [x] 1.2 Read `packages/theming/src/utils/serializeTokens.ts` — understand CSS variable naming convention and confirm the variable-name → token-path inversion is lossless.
+- [x] 1.3 Read `packages/vite-plugin/src/resolve-transforms.ts` — understand its role in the pipeline and identify any interaction with token alias resolution.
+- [x] 1.4 Test with the real docs theme (`packages/_docs/theme.ts`): verify that `_variables` contains entries for all `createScaleVariables()` scales, and confirm which scales do NOT have variables.
+
+## 2. Theme Serialization (Vite Plugin)
+
+- [x] 2.1 Add `buildVariableMap(theme)` function in `theme-evaluator.ts` that iterates `theme._variables` scopes and builds a `{ "token.path": "--css-var-name" }` map. Handle the key format conversion (CSS var name → token path).
+- [x] 2.2 Update `evaluateThemeObject()` return type to include `variablesMap: string` (JSON) alongside existing `scalesJson` and `variableCss`.
+- [x] 2.3 Update `index.ts` plugin to pass the variable-name map JSON to Rust `extract()` and `analyze_project()` as an additional argument.
+
+## 3. Rust: NAPI Signature Update
+
+- [x] 3.1 Add `variable_map_json: String` parameter to `extract()` and `analyze_project()` NAPI functions in `lib.rs`.
+- [x] 3.2 Deserialize variable map as `HashMap<String, String>` and pass to theme resolver alongside the existing flat theme.
+- [x] 3.3 Update `transform_file()` if it needs access to the variable map (check whether transform phase needs alias data).
+
+## 4. Rust: Token Alias Resolution
+
+- [x] 4.1 Add `resolve_token_aliases(value: &str, theme: &FlatTheme, variables: &HashMap<String, String>) -> (String, Vec<AliasWarning>)` function in `theme_resolver.rs`. Scans string for `{...}` patterns, resolves each.
+- [x] 4.2 Implement dot-path-to-flat-key conversion: split on dots, first segment = scale, rest joined with hyphens. `{colors.pink.600}` → `"colors.pink-600"`.
+- [x] 4.3 Implement alpha modifier parsing: split alias on `/`, parse trailing integer as opacity percentage (0-100).
+- [x] 4.4 Implement variable-aware resolution: check variable map first (→ `var(--name)`), fall back to flat value map (→ literal), emit warning if neither matches.
+- [x] 4.5 Implement alpha wrapping: `color-mix(in srgb, <resolved> N%, transparent)`. Handle edge cases: `/100` → no wrapper, `/0` → `transparent`.
+- [x] 4.6 Integrate `resolve_token_aliases` into `resolve_single_prop` — call it on string values after existing scale resolution, before emitting CSS declarations.
+
+## 5. Rust: Diagnostics
+
+- [x] 5.1 Define `AliasWarning` struct with `token_path: String` and propagate warnings through the resolution pipeline to `ExtractionResult.errors` with `[alias]` prefix format.
+
+## 6. Testing
+
+- [x] 6.1 Add Rust unit tests in `theme_resolver.rs`: dot-path conversion, basic alias resolution, alpha modifier, multiple aliases, unresolved alias warning, variable vs literal resolution.
+- [x] 6.2 Create test fixture `packages/extract/tests/fixtures/token-alias.tsx` with components using token alias syntax: simple alias, compound values, alpha modifier, multiple aliases, unresolved alias.
+- [x] 6.3 Add canary test cases in `canary.test.ts`: verify CSS output contains resolved token values, verify alias warnings in errors, verify alpha produces color-mix().
+- [x] 6.4 Verify existing canary tests still pass — token alias changes must not regress the existing pipeline.
+
+## 7. Documentation
+
+- [x] 7.1 Update the canary test's theme fixture to include a variable-name map, reflecting the new serialization format.

+## Why
+
+The Rust extraction pipeline reimplements 4 JS transform functions in Rust (`size`, `borderShorthand`, `gridItemRatio`, `gridItem` in `transforms.rs`). The config serialization maps JS function references to string identifiers, and the Rust side dispatches on those strings to call its reimplemented versions.
+
+This architecture has three problems:
+
+1. **Custom transforms don't extract.** If a user registers a custom transform in their config (`{ property: 'x', transform: myFn }`), the Rust pipeline has no way to apply it. The value either passes through raw or silently produces wrong CSS.
+
+2. **Parity is fragile.** Every transform exists in TWO places (JS + Rust) and must produce identical output. The `serializeValueKey` parity contract between runtime and Rust is already a documented risk. Adding more transforms compounds it.
+
+3. **New transforms require Rust changes.** Adding a 5th transform means writing Rust code, updating `transforms.rs`, updating the dispatch in `theme_resolver.rs`, rebuilding the NAPI addon. This is a barrier to design system extensibility.
+
+The fix: transforms are JS functions defined in the config. They should RUN in JS at build time. The Rust pipeline extracts raw values and notes which transform applies. A JS post-processing step in the Vite plugin applies the transforms using the actual functions from the config. No reimplementation. No parity contract. Custom transforms just work.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Rust pipeline emits raw values for transformed props**: Instead of applying transforms during CSS generation, the Rust side emits a placeholder or intermediate representation for props with transforms. Known transforms can optionally still be applied in Rust as an optimization path.
+- **Manifest includes transform metadata**: The `analyzeProject` manifest includes, for each transformed prop value, the raw value and the transform identifier. This metadata is consumed by the JS post-processing step.
+- **Vite plugin post-processes CSS with transforms**: After receiving the manifest CSS from Rust, the plugin applies pending transforms using the actual JS functions from the config. This produces the final CSS.
+- **Config serialization includes transform functions**: The serialized config passed to Rust includes transform identifiers. The Rust side uses them for dispatch (known transforms) or passthrough (unknown transforms).
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `transform-interpolation`: The extraction pipeline supports arbitrary user-defined transform functions via build-time JS interpolation. Custom transforms registered in the config are applied to extracted CSS at build time without requiring Rust reimplementation.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: CSS generation emits intermediate values for transformed props. Known transforms remain as an optimization. Unknown transforms produce placeholder markers.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Post-processes manifest CSS to apply pending transforms using config-provided JS functions.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/extract/src/theme_resolver.rs`**: Modified to emit placeholders for unknown transforms
+- **`packages/extract/src/transforms.rs`**: Retained as optimization, no longer load-bearing
+- **`packages/extract/src/css_generator.rs`**: May need to emit transform metadata alongside CSS
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`**: Post-processing step after `analyzeProject`
+- **`packages/core/src/config.ts`**: Config serialization may need to include transform function source or registry
+- **No runtime changes**: Transforms are resolved at build time, not runtime

+## Why
+
+The design system's provenance is fragmented across three separate concerns that are loaded, serialized, and typed independently:
+
+1. **Theme** (`@animus-ui/theming`) — scales, colors, color modes, breakpoints
+2. **Config** (`@animus-ui/core`) — prop registry, group registry, transforms
+3. **Builder instance** (`createAnimus().addGroup().build()`) — the runtime entry point
+
+This fragmentation causes:
+
+- **3 bun subprocesses** in the Vite plugin: one for config, one for theme, one for transforms. Each adds ~50ms to startup and (for transforms) to every HMR cycle.
+- **`declare module` ceremony**: consumers must `declare module '@animus-ui/core' { interface Theme extends MyTheme {} }` in a separate file to get type-safe scale resolution.
+- **CompatTheme fallback chain**: Scale types resolve through `keyof Theme` → MapScale → ArrayScale → `keyof CompatTheme` → PropertyValues. A leaky abstraction from the Emotion era.
+- **Runtime prop filtering bug**: custom vocabulary props like `fluidSize` leak to the DOM because the runtime shim doesn't know about custom group props. The instance has this information but the plugin doesn't pass it through completely.
+- **Transform subprocess on every HMR**: `resolve-transforms.ts` runs via bun on every file save to resolve `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders. The transform functions exist in the instance's prop registry — they should be loaded once and held in memory.
+
+## What Changes
+
+Co-locate theme INTO the builder instance. The instance becomes the **single source of truth** for the entire design system.
+
+### Consumer API
+
+```typescript
+// Before: two files, three concerns, augmentation dance
+// theme.ts
+export const theme = createTheme({...}).addColors({...}).build();
+declare module '@animus-ui/core' { interface Theme extends typeof theme {} }
+
+// ds.ts
+export const ds = createAnimus().addGroup('surface', surface).build();
+export const getExtractConfig = () => serializeExtractConfig(ds);
+
+// After: one file, one object, types flow naturally
+export const ds = createAnimus()
+  .withTheme(createTheme({...}).addColors({...}).build())
+  .addGroup('surface', surface)
+  .build();
+// Theme types flow from .withTheme() — no declare module needed
+// Extract config, transforms, theme all available via ds
+```
+
+### Type System
+
+Add `T extends BaseTheme` as a leading generic on the builder chain. Theme flows through the entire type-state machine:
+
+```
+Animus<T, PropRegistry, GroupRegistry, BaseParser>
+  → AnimusWithBase<T, ...>
+    → AnimusWithVariants<T, ...>
+      → AnimusWithStates<T, ...>
+        → AnimusWithSystem<T, ...>
+          → AnimusWithAll<T, ...>
+            → AnimusExtended<T, ...>
+```
+
+`ScaleValue<Config>` becomes `ScaleValue<Config, T>`. Scale resolution checks `keyof T[scale]` directly instead of the global `Theme` interface.
+
+### Plugin Simplification
+
+```
+Before: 3 subprocesses           After: 1 subprocess
+─────────────────────            ──────────────────────
+bun -e loadConfig()              bun -e loadInstance()
+bun -e loadTheme()                 → theme, config, groups,
+bun -e resolveTransforms()           transforms ALL from one object
+```
+
+Transform registry built in-process at startup from the instance's prop registry. No subprocess on HMR.
+
+### Plugin API
+
+```typescript
+// Before: multiple options for separate concerns
+animusExtract({
+  configPath: './src/custom-vocabulary.tsx',
+  themePath: './src/theme.ts',  // or auto-detect
+})
+
+// After: one option
+animusExtract({
+  instance: './src/ds.ts',  // or auto-detect
+})
+```
+
+## What This Kills
+
+- `CompatTheme` type and its fallback chain
+- `AbstractTheme` interface (`[key: string]: any` escape hatch)
+- `Theme` augmentable interface (no more `declare module`)
+- `resolve-transforms.ts` as a subprocess script (transforms in-process)
+- `evaluateThemeObject` as a separate code path (theme comes from instance)
+- Separate `themePath` / `configPath` plugin options
+- `serializeExtractConfig` as a standalone utility (instance serializes itself)
+- The ~50-100ms bun subprocess cost on every HMR cycle
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `builder-chain`: Theme generic `T` added to all 6 builder classes + AnimusExtended
+- `prop-system`: `ScaleValue`, `Scale`, `CSSProps`, `CSSPropMap`, `ParserProps` all parameterized by `T`
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Single instance entry point, in-process transform registry, no HMR subprocess
+- `custom-instance-extraction`: `configPath` replaced by `instance` option
+
+### Removed Capabilities
+- `compat-theme-fallback`: CompatTheme type and fallback chain removed
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/core/src/Animus.ts`**: `T` generic on all 6 classes, threaded through constructors and method returns
+- **`packages/core/src/AnimusExtended.ts`**: `T` generic, inherited from parent
+- **`packages/core/src/AnimusConfig.ts`**: `.withTheme(theme)` method captures `T`
+- **`packages/core/src/types/config.ts`**: `ScaleValue<Config, T>`, `Scale<Config, T>`, `CSSProps<..., T>`, `ParserProps<..., T>`
+- **`packages/core/src/types/theme.ts`**: Kill `AbstractTheme`, `Theme` augmentable interface. Keep `BaseTheme`.
+- **`packages/core/src/types/props.ts`**: `ThemeProps<Props, T>` parameterized
+- **`packages/core/src/compatTheme.ts`**: Delete entirely
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`**: Single `instance` option, one subprocess, in-process transform registry
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/resolve-transforms.ts`**: Delete (transforms loaded from instance)
+- **`packages/showcase/`**: Consolidate theme.ts + custom-vocabulary.tsx into one ds.ts module
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- **TypeScript generic depth**: Threading `T` through 6 nested classes + type utilities creates deep generic instantiation chains. Will TypeScript hit its instantiation depth limit for complex themes? Need to spike with the showcase's theme (which has color modes, 6 scales, ~30 color tokens).
+- **Default theme for `@animus-ui/ui`**: The existing `@animus-ui/ui` package uses the default `animus` instance without a custom theme. What's `T` for the default instance? Likely `BaseTheme` (minimal) — consumers augment by wrapping with their theme at the app level.
+- **Backwards compatibility**: Existing consumers using `declare module` augmentation. Can we keep the global `Theme` interface as a deprecated fallback, or is this a clean break?
+- **`createTheme` return type**: Does the ThemeBuilder's output type (`createTheme({...}).build()`) cleanly satisfy `BaseTheme`? It has `_variables`, `_tokens`, `mode` — non-scale keys that shouldn't appear in scale resolution.
+- **Emotion interop**: The builder still uses `styled()` from Emotion at runtime. Emotion's `ThemeProvider` injects a theme via context. Does the co-located theme replace `ThemeProvider`, or coexist with it?
+- **lodash.merge**: Currently used in variant accumulation. This is the right time to remove it — the builder is being refactored anyway.

+## Context
+
+The Animus monorepo has a layered build pipeline:
+
+```
+Rust Crate (cargo/napi)
+  └→ TS Packages (tsdown + tsc, ordered: core → theming → runtime → system → vite-plugin → ui)
+       └→ Showcase (vite build, uses vite-plugin for extraction)
+```
+
+Each layer produces artifacts that downstream layers consume. Caches exist at every layer:
+
+| Cache | Location | Cleared by `clean`? | Risk |
+|-------|----------|---------------------|------|
+| Vite transforms | `node_modules/.vite/` | No | HIGH |
+| NAPI binary | `packages/extract/*.node` | No | HIGH |
+| TS dist | `packages/*/dist/` | Yes | MED |
+| Rust target | `packages/extract/target/` | Yes | LOW |
+
+The React alias incident (session 2026-03-24) demonstrated that `node_modules/.vite/` can serve stale transforms indefinitely, with no error signal. The NAPI binary persists across Rust signature changes — if a function gains a parameter, the old `.node` binary will silently accept the wrong arity.
+
+The `verify` scripts validate TS build + tests + linting but NOT the showcase extraction build, which is the only proof that the full pipeline works end-to-end.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Single command to reach guaranteed-fresh state from any cache corruption scenario
+- `verify:full` gates on extraction proof (showcase build), not just TS compilation
+- Developer knowledge captured in package-level CLAUDE.md files so debugging expertise survives across sessions
+- Cache tier awareness — light clean for common issues, full clean for nuclear reset
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing the build tool (bun, tsdown, cargo) — these are stable
+- CI/CD pipeline changes — this is local DX only
+- Automatic cache invalidation — too complex, manual tiered clean is sufficient
+- Changing the extraction pipeline itself — this is tooling around it
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Three clean tiers instead of one
+
+**Choice:** `clean` (existing, unchanged), `clean:light`, `clean:full`
+
+**Rationale:** Most stale-cache issues are Vite transform cache or stale dist. A light clean that removes just these takes <1s and fixes 80% of cases. A full clean that also removes Rust target + NAPI binary + tsbuildinfo takes longer (Rust rebuild is 30-60s) but guarantees fresh state. Keeping `clean` unchanged avoids breaking existing muscle memory.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Single `clean --level=light|full` flag. Rejected because bun scripts don't support flags elegantly, and separate script names are more discoverable.
+
+### Decision 2: Showcase build as verification gate
+
+**Choice:** Add `test:showcase` (already exists as `bun run --filter './packages/showcase' build`) to `verify:full`.
+
+**Rationale:** The showcase IS the integration test. It exercises: system serialization → Rust extraction → Vite transform → CSS generation → React rendering. If showcase builds, extraction works. If it doesn't, something is broken regardless of what unit tests say.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Separate `verify:extraction` script. Rejected — `verify:full` should mean "verify EVERYTHING." If you want just TS, use `verify`.
+
+### Decision 3: CLAUDE.md addendum, not replacement
+
+**Choice:** Append a `## Monorepo Build System` section to root CLAUDE.md rather than replacing the SYZYGY bootstrap.
+
+**Rationale:** The SYZYGY bootstrap serves a different purpose (cognitive framework). Build system knowledge is additive context, not a replacement. Package-level CLAUDE.md files carry the detailed per-package knowledge.
+
+### Decision 4: CLAUDE.md content scope
+
+**Choice:** Each package CLAUDE.md covers: purpose, build commands, cache locations, known failure modes, debugging procedures, verification commands. No architecture docs (that's in specs). No API docs (that's in types).
+
+**Rationale:** The target audience is a developer (or AI agent) who just encountered a confusing failure. They need: "what caches exist, how to clear them, what to rebuild, how to verify." Not "how does the AST walker work."
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk] CLAUDE.md goes stale** → Mitigated by keeping content focused on stable structural knowledge (cache locations, build order) rather than volatile implementation details. Cache locations change rarely.
+- **[Risk] `verify:full` becomes too slow with showcase build** → Mitigated by keeping `verify` (without showcase) as the fast path. `verify:full` is for "something might be broken" situations where correctness > speed.
+- **[Risk] `clean:full` removes Rust target, forcing 30-60s rebuild** → This is the point. When you need fresh state, you need fresh state. `clean:light` exists for the fast path.

+## Why
+
+The extraction pipeline now spans Rust (NAPI crate), 6 TS packages with ordered build dependencies, a Vite plugin with subprocess-based system resolution, and a showcase app that serves as the integration proof. After shipping per-property bail, token alias syntax, and global styles in a single session, debugging time was dominated by stale caches — a React resolve alias in vite.config.ts silently broke transforms, and the `.vite` transform cache served stale results even after code changes. The existing `clean` script only removes `dist/` and `target/`, missing the highest-risk cache layers entirely. The `verify` scripts don't include the showcase build, so `verify:full` can pass while the extraction proof is broken.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Tiered clean scripts**: `clean:light` (Vite cache + dist — fast, covers 80% of stale-cache issues), `clean:full` (all caches including Rust target, NAPI binary, tsbuildinfo), `clean` remains as-is for backward compatibility
+- **Cache-aware verify**: `verify:full` includes showcase build as the extraction integration gate. New `verify:showcase` for focused extraction verification
+- **Rebuild script**: `rebuild` = `clean:full` + `build:all` — guaranteed fresh state, single command
+- **Package-level CLAUDE.md files**: Developer knowledge docs for `extract/`, `vite-plugin/`, and `showcase/` encoding cache behavior, debugging procedures, rebuild requirements, and known failure modes
+- **Root CLAUDE.md addendum**: Monorepo-level build order, verification loop, and common debugging scenarios appended to existing cognitive bootstrap
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `build-verification`: Requirements for build scripts, clean tiers, verification gates, and the dependency-ordered rebuild pipeline
+- `developer-knowledge-docs`: Requirements for what CLAUDE.md files must contain per package — cache locations, debugging procedures, known failure modes, and verification commands
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+_(none — these are new tooling/DX capabilities, no existing spec behavior changes)_
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Root `package.json`**: New script entries (non-breaking additions)
+- **`packages/extract/CLAUDE.md`**: New file — Rust crate rebuild, NAPI binary, cargo cache behavior
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md`**: New file — subprocess model, `.vite` cache, debug logging, transform pipeline
+- **`packages/showcase/CLAUDE.md`**: New file — extraction proof, what breaks it, how to verify
+- **Root `CLAUDE.md`**: Addendum section (preserves existing SYZYGY bootstrap)
+- **No source code changes** — this is purely build tooling and developer documentation

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Tiered clean scripts
+The root `package.json` SHALL provide three clean script tiers: `clean:light` for high-risk caches only, `clean:full` for all build artifacts and caches, and `clean` (unchanged) for backward compatibility.
+
+#### Scenario: clean:light removes Vite cache and TS dist
+- **WHEN** `bun run clean:light` is executed
+- **THEN** the following SHALL be removed: `node_modules/.vite/`, `packages/*/dist/`
+- **AND** the following SHALL NOT be removed: `packages/extract/target/`, `packages/extract/*.node`
+
+#### Scenario: clean:full removes all build artifacts and caches
+- **WHEN** `bun run clean:full` is executed
+- **THEN** the following SHALL be removed: `node_modules/.vite/`, `packages/*/dist/`, `packages/extract/target/`, `packages/extract/*.node`
+

+- **THEN** it SHALL behave identically to its current behavior: removing `packages/*/dist` and `packages/extract/target`
+
+### Requirement: Rebuild script for guaranteed fresh state
+The root `package.json` SHALL provide a `rebuild` script that performs a full clean followed by a complete build in dependency order.
+
+#### Scenario: rebuild produces fresh state from any cache corruption
+- **WHEN** `bun run rebuild` is executed
+- **THEN** it SHALL first execute `clean:full` to remove all caches and artifacts
+- **AND** then execute `build:all` to rebuild Rust crate followed by all TS packages in dependency order
+
+#### Scenario: rebuild succeeds after NAPI signature change
+- **WHEN** a Rust NAPI function signature has changed and the old `.node` binary exists
+- **AND** `bun run rebuild` is executed
+- **THEN** the old `.node` binary SHALL be removed before cargo build
+- **AND** the new binary SHALL be produced with the updated signature
+
+### Requirement: Showcase as verification gate
+The `verify:full` script SHALL include the showcase build as the extraction pipeline integration gate. A separate `verify:showcase` script SHALL exist for focused extraction verification.
+
+#### Scenario: verify:full includes showcase build
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify:full` is executed
+- **THEN** it SHALL execute: Rust build, TS build (ordered), tests, biome check, AND showcase build
+- **AND** if the showcase build fails, `verify:full` SHALL fail
+
+#### Scenario: verify:showcase tests extraction end-to-end
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify:showcase` is executed
+- **THEN** it SHALL execute: `build:all` followed by showcase build (`bun run --filter './packages/showcase' build`)
+
+#### Scenario: verify (without :full) remains fast
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify` is executed
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT include the showcase build or Rust build (unchanged behavior)
+
+### Requirement: Build dependency order
+All build scripts that compile multiple packages SHALL respect the dependency order: extract (Rust) → core → theming → runtime → system → vite-plugin → ui. The showcase build SHALL only execute after all dependencies are built.
+
+#### Scenario: build:ts respects dependency order
+- **WHEN** `bun run build:ts` is executed
+- **THEN** packages SHALL build in order: core, theming, runtime, system, vite-plugin, ui
+- **AND** each package build SHALL complete before the next begins

+#### Scenario: build:all includes Rust before TS
+- **WHEN** `bun run build:all` is executed
+- **THEN** the Rust crate SHALL build first (`build:extract`)
+- **AND** then TS packages SHALL build in dependency order (`build:ts`)

+## Why
+
+The global styles resolution logic in the Vite plugin was written as a JavaScript string template concatenated inside a TypeScript file — an escaped string-in-string abomination that was unlintable, untestable, and unmaintainable. The `resolve-transforms.ts` script already established the pattern of standalone subprocess scripts. Global styles resolution should follow the same pattern.
+
+Additionally, the resolution logic needed to handle `@keyframes` at-rules, which are structurally different from normal selector → property CSS. Keyframe blocks contain nested selectors (percentage stops) with their own property declarations, and they don't need prop config resolution — just raw camelToKebab serialization.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- New `resolve-global-styles.ts` standalone script in `packages/vite-plugin/src/` — receives system path, theme JSON path, and output file path as CLI args
+- The script imports the system module, extracts `globalStyles` from `.serialize()`, resolves props through the full config + theme + transforms, and writes resolved CSS to output
+- `@keyframes` selectors detected and delegated to `serializeRawBlock()` — raw structural serialization with camelToKebab on property names, no scale/transform resolution
+- `loadSystem()` in the plugin now invokes the standalone script instead of writing + executing a temp JS file with inline string logic
+- Script resolution uses the same candidate path pattern as `resolve-transforms.ts` (dist/, src/, package.json-resolved)
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Global styles resolution moved from inline string template to standalone subprocess script. Adds `@keyframes` support via structural serialization.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Vite plugin** (`packages/vite-plugin/`): New `src/resolve-global-styles.ts` file. `loadSystem()` simplified — no more `writeFileSync` of generated JS code for global style resolution.

+## Context
+
+The system builder (`createSystem()`) currently provides `.withTokens()` and `.withProperties()` to define the design language. Components use prop shorthand (`p: 8`, `color: 'primary'`, `border: 1`) which gets resolved through theme scales and transforms during extraction. But global styles (resets, base typography, scrollbar, selection) are authored as raw CSS files that bypass this vocabulary.
+
+The showcase currently imports `reset.css` and `global.css` in `main.tsx`. These files hardcode CSS variable names (`var(--color-background)`) and raw values instead of using the design system's shorthand.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- `.withGlobalStyles()` method on `SystemBuilder` that accepts selector-keyed style objects using the same prop shorthand as components
+- Global styles resolved through theme scales, transforms, and token aliases at extraction time
+- Global CSS emitted in the virtual stylesheet before `@layer` blocks
+- Replace hand-written CSS files in the showcase
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Runtime global style injection (this is extraction-only)
+- Scoping or CSS modules for global styles (they're intentionally global)
+- Responsive breakpoint support within global styles (keep it simple — global styles rarely need responsive values)
+- Animation keyframe definitions (separate concern, `@keyframes` can stay in CSS files)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. API: `.withGlobalStyles()` on SystemBuilder
+
+```ts
+export const ds = createSystem()
+  .withTokens((t) => tokens)
+  .withProperties((p) => p.addGroup(...).build())
+  .withGlobalStyles({
+    '*, *::before, *::after': { boxSizing: 'border-box' },
+    'html, body': { m: 0, bg: 'background', color: 'text', fontFamily: 'base' },
+    a: { color: 'primary', textDecoration: 'none' },
+    '::selection': { bg: 'primary', color: 'background' },
+    '::-webkit-scrollbar': { width: 4 },
+    '::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb': { bg: 'primary' },
+  })
+  .build();
+```
+
+**Why**: Same position in the builder chain as tokens and properties — system-level configuration, not component-level. The method comes AFTER `.withProperties()` because it uses the prop registry for shorthand resolution.
+
+**Alternative considered**: A separate function like `createGlobalStyles(ds, {...})`. Rejected because it fragments the system definition — one file, one instance, one truth.
+
+### 2. Style objects use prop shorthand, not CSS properties
+
+The value objects use the same keys as component `.styles()` blocks: `bg` not `backgroundColor`, `p` not `padding`, `m` not `margin`. They resolve through the same prop config → scale lookup → transform pipeline.
+
+**Why**: Consistency. If `bg: 'primary'` works in a component, it should work in global styles. No second vocabulary.
+
+### 3. Resolution happens in JS during serialization, not in Rust
+
+Global styles are resolved at `loadSystem()` time in the Vite plugin, using the serialized prop config and theme. The resolved CSS is emitted as a string alongside theme variable CSS.
+
+**Why**: Global styles are a flat selector → declarations map. They don't need chain walking, JSX scanning, or any of the Rust pipeline's component analysis. Resolving in JS during serialization keeps the Rust boundary clean. The theme resolver logic (`resolve_styles`) can be reimplemented as a simple JS function for this purpose — or we can call the Rust `extract()` function with a synthetic source that wraps global styles in animus chains (ugly but reuses the pipeline).
+
+**Preferred approach**: JS-side resolution. The prop config map, flat theme, and variable map are all available as JSON at plugin load time. A `resolveGlobalStyles(globalStyles, propConfig, flatTheme, variableMap)` function in the Vite plugin resolves each selector's style object to CSS declarations using the same lookup logic as the Rust resolver (scale lookup → transform placeholder → value).
+
+### 4. Global CSS emitted before @layer blocks
+
+Global styles go BEFORE the `@layer base, variants, states, system, custom;` declaration. They have no layer — they're root-level CSS. This matches the convention for resets and base styles.
+
+**Why**: Resets and base typography should be overrideable by any layer. Putting them outside layers gives them the lowest specificity in the cascade.
+
+### 5. `SerializedConfig` gains `globalStyles` field
+
+The serialized output from `ds.serialize()` includes a new field:
+
+```ts
+interface SerializedConfig {
+  tokens: any;
+  propConfig: string;
+  groupRegistry: string;
+  transforms: Record<string, NamedTransform>;
+  globalStyles?: Record<string, Record<string, any>>;  // NEW
+}
+```
+
+The value is the raw style objects (not yet resolved) — resolution happens in the Vite plugin where theme data is available.
+
+**Why**: The system builder stores the global styles as-is. Resolution requires the flattened theme (which comes from evaluating the tokens). Keeping them unresolved in `serialize()` means the system doesn't need to self-resolve during construction.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk: Transform placeholders in global CSS]** If global styles use props with transforms (e.g., `border: 1` → `borderShorthand`), the JS resolver needs to apply transforms directly — not emit `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders. The transforms are available in `serialize().transforms`.
+→ **Mitigation**: The JS resolver calls transform functions directly from the transforms map. No placeholder round-trip needed.
+
+**[Risk: Pseudo-elements and complex selectors]** Some selectors (`body::after`, `*::before`) need to be emitted as-is. The resolver only processes VALUES, not selectors.
+→ **Mitigation**: Selectors are pass-through strings. Only the style object values get resolved.
+
+**[Risk: Token alias syntax in global styles]** If a global style uses `{colors.primary/50}`, the JS resolver needs token alias resolution too.
+→ **Mitigation**: Implement the same `{...}` scanning in the JS resolver. Or skip token alias support in global styles for v1 — it's a compound feature.

+## Why
+
+Global styles (resets, base typography, scrollbar customization, selection colors) are currently hand-written CSS files imported separately from the design system. This means they can't use prop shorthand (`p: 8`), scale lookups (`color: 'primary'`), or transforms (`border: 1`) — the vocabulary the rest of the system provides. Every global style is a hand-maintained escape hatch that bypasses the design language. A `.withGlobalStyles()` method on the system builder makes global CSS first-class: authored with the same shorthand, resolved through the same theme, extracted through the same pipeline.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- New `.withGlobalStyles()` method on `SystemBuilder` accepting a CSS-selector-keyed object where values are style objects using the same prop shorthand as components
+- `SerializedConfig` gains a `globalStyles` field containing the raw global style declarations (selector → style object map)
+- The Rust extraction pipeline resolves global style objects through the existing theme resolver (scale lookups, transforms, token aliases) and emits CSS outside any `@layer` block (or in a dedicated `@layer global`)
+- The Vite plugin prepends resolved global CSS to the virtual stylesheet alongside theme variable CSS
+- Showcase replaces `global.css` and `reset.css` imports with `.withGlobalStyles()` on the system instance
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `global-styles-system`: System builder method for defining global CSS with prop shorthand, theme resolution, and transform support. Serialized and extracted alongside component styles.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Plugin prepends resolved global CSS to the virtual stylesheet, emitted before component `@layer` blocks.
+- `custom-instance-extraction`: System `serialize()` includes `globalStyles` field in its output.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **System package** (`packages/system/`): `SystemBuilder` gains `.withGlobalStyles()`, `SerializedConfig` gains `globalStyles` field, `serializeInstance` includes global styles in output
+- **Vite plugin** (`packages/vite-plugin/`): `loadSystem()` reads `globalStyles` from serialized config, resolves through the Rust pipeline or JS-side resolution, prepends to virtual CSS
+- **Rust crate** (`packages/extract/`): May need a new entry point or reuse existing `resolve_styles` for global style resolution (selector-keyed objects instead of component chains)
+- **Showcase** (`packages/showcase/`): `global.css` and `reset.css` replaced by `.withGlobalStyles()` on the `ds` instance

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: withGlobalStyles method on SystemBuilder
+The `SystemBuilder` class SHALL expose a `.withGlobalStyles(styles)` method that accepts an object keyed by CSS selectors, where each value is a style object using the same prop shorthand as component `.styles()` blocks. The method SHALL return a new `SystemBuilder` instance preserving all previously configured tokens, properties, and groups.
+
+#### Scenario: Basic global styles
+- **WHEN** `.withGlobalStyles({ 'html, body': { m: 0, bg: 'background', color: 'text' } })` is called
+- **THEN** the builder SHALL store the global styles and the built system instance SHALL include them in `serialize()` output
+
+#### Scenario: Chaining after withProperties
+- **WHEN** `.withTokens(...)` then `.withProperties(...)` then `.withGlobalStyles(...)` then `.build()` is called
+- **THEN** the system SHALL build successfully with all tokens, properties, and global styles available
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple selectors
+- **WHEN** `.withGlobalStyles({ '*, *::before, *::after': { boxSizing: 'border-box' }, a: { color: 'primary' }, '::selection': { bg: 'primary' } })` is called
+- **THEN** all three selectors SHALL be preserved in the serialized output
+
+#### Scenario: Prop shorthand in global styles
+- **WHEN** a global style uses `{ p: 8, bg: 'background', border: 1 }`
+- **THEN** the style object SHALL be stored as-is (resolution happens during extraction, not during system construction)
+
+### Requirement: Global styles in SerializedConfig
+The `SerializedConfig` interface SHALL include an optional `globalStyles` field of type `Record<string, Record<string, any>>` mapping CSS selectors to unresolved style objects.
+
+#### Scenario: serialize() includes globalStyles
+- **WHEN** `ds.serialize()` is called on a system with `.withGlobalStyles()` configured
+- **THEN** the returned object SHALL include a `globalStyles` field containing the selector-keyed style objects
+
+#### Scenario: serialize() without globalStyles
+- **WHEN** `ds.serialize()` is called on a system without `.withGlobalStyles()`
+- **THEN** the returned object SHALL NOT include a `globalStyles` field (or it SHALL be undefined)
+
+### Requirement: Global style resolution
+Global style objects SHALL be resolved using the same prop config, theme scales, transforms, and token alias logic as component styles. Each prop key SHALL be looked up in the prop config to determine the CSS property name, scale, and transform. Scale values SHALL be resolved against the flattened theme. Transforms SHALL be applied directly (not deferred as placeholders).
+
+#### Scenario: Scale resolution in global styles
+- **WHEN** global style has `{ p: 8 }` and theme has `space.8 → "0.5rem"`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS SHALL contain `padding: 0.5rem`
+
+#### Scenario: Color resolution in global styles
+- **WHEN** global style has `{ bg: 'background' }` and theme has `colors.background → "var(--color-background)"`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS SHALL contain `background-color: var(--color-background)`
+
+#### Scenario: Transform application in global styles
+- **WHEN** global style has `{ border: 1 }` and the `border` prop has a `borderShorthand` transform
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS SHALL contain the transform result (e.g., `border: 1px solid currentColor`) with the transform applied directly, NOT as a `__TRANSFORM__` placeholder
+
+#### Scenario: Pass-through CSS properties
+- **WHEN** global style has `{ boxSizing: 'border-box', textDecoration: 'none' }` (no prop config entry)
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS SHALL contain `box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none` (camelCase → kebab-case conversion, no scale lookup)
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-property prop expansion
+- **WHEN** global style has `{ px: 16 }` and config maps `px` to `paddingLeft` + `paddingRight`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS SHALL contain both `padding-left: 1rem; padding-right: 1rem`
+
+### Requirement: Global CSS emission in virtual stylesheet
+Resolved global CSS SHALL be emitted in the virtual stylesheet (`virtual:animus/styles.css`) BEFORE the `@layer` declaration and component CSS. Global styles SHALL NOT be wrapped in any `@layer` block.
+
+#### Scenario: Global CSS before layers
+- **WHEN** the system has global styles and extracted component CSS
+- **THEN** the virtual stylesheet content SHALL be: theme variable CSS, then global CSS, then `@layer` declaration, then component CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Complex selectors preserved
+- **WHEN** global styles include `'body::after'`, `'::-webkit-scrollbar'`, `'::selection'`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS SHALL use these selectors verbatim
+
+#### Scenario: No global styles configured
+- **WHEN** the system has no `.withGlobalStyles()` call
+- **THEN** the virtual stylesheet SHALL contain only theme variables and component CSS (no empty global block)

+## Why
+
+Every HMR update triggers a full re-analysis of ALL project files via `analyzeProject()` — currently ~57ms for 32 files (~2ms/file). This scales linearly: a 500-file app would pay ~900ms per save. The manifest is a materialized view of per-file contributions, and the Rust crate already has a per-file `extract()` function that runs in ~2ms. The pieces exist for incremental updates — we just need to assemble them.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Per-file extraction cache** in the Vite plugin: cache each file's `extract()` result (chains, ComponentCss, usage data)
+- **Incremental HMR path**: on file change, re-extract ONLY the changed file, merge its delta into the cached manifest
+- **Dev-mode "only grow" strategy**: never remove utility classes or component CSS during dev. Append new system prop values, keep all components rendered. Prod build does the clean sweep via full `analyzeProject()` + reconciliation.
+- **Import-change detection**: cheap regex pre-check on `import.*from` statements. If imports didn't change, skip provenance re-resolution. If imports changed, fall back to full re-analysis (rare during active dev).
+- **Transactional manifest updates**: plugin-side JS merges per-file extraction deltas into the existing manifest without calling `analyzeProject()`.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `incremental-extraction`: Per-file extraction caching + delta merging for O(1) HMR updates regardless of project size
+- `dev-mode-growth-strategy`: Dev-mode "only grow, never shrink" approach to utility CSS and component CSS — prod reconciliation handles cleanup
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts` — per-file cache, incremental HMR path, import-change detection
+- `packages/extract` — no Rust changes needed initially. `extract()` per-file already exists. Future: optional `merge_manifest()` NAPI function for Rust-side merging.
+- HMR latency: ~57ms → <5ms for single-file changes regardless of project size
+- Geological resets (ds.ts, config changes): unchanged, still full re-analysis
+- Production builds: unchanged, still full `analyzeProject()` + reconciliation
+- Depends on `static-adopted-split` for animation-safe CSS delivery of incremental updates

+## Context
+
+The Vite plugin (`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`) orchestrates the extraction pipeline: it loads the system via subprocess, discovers files, calls `analyzeProject()` from the Rust NAPI crate, and serves the resulting CSS via a virtual module. The Rust crate already produces a structured `UniverseManifest` containing a `ReconciliationReport` (with `eliminated_details`) and a usage ledger (with `rendered_components`), but the plugin discards this diagnostic data after extracting the CSS string.
+
+The plugin currently has zero structured logging. When extraction produces unexpected results, the only recourse is writing ad-hoc diagnostic scripts — which often fail on module resolution since the plugin runs in Vite's context with specific resolution rules.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Surface reconciliation elimination warnings to stderr so developers immediately see when components are dropped
+- Provide verbose phase-by-phase logging behind an opt-in flag for deeper debugging
+- Add phase timing so performance regressions are visible
+- Keep output grep-friendly and structured
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing the Rust crate's output format (the manifest already has everything we need)
+- Adding a debug UI or dashboard
+- File-based log output or log rotation
+- Changing any extraction behavior — this is purely observability
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Two-tier logging: warnings (always) + verbose (opt-in)
+
+Reconciliation elimination warnings always print via Vite's `config.logger.warn()`. These are the "your component disappeared" signals that should never be silent. Everything else (phase checkpoints, timing, transform details) is behind verbose mode.
+
+**Rationale**: Silent component elimination is the #1 pain point. Making warnings always-on means the developer sees the problem immediately, not after a debugging session. Verbose mode adds noise that's only useful during active investigation.
+
+**Alternative considered**: All logging behind verbose flag. Rejected because the whole point is that developers don't know they need to investigate — the warning has to be proactive.
+
+### 2. Activation: `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1` env var OR `verbose: true` plugin option
+
+The env var is preferred for CI/debugging (no code change required). The plugin option is for persistent verbose mode during development.
+
+**Rationale**: Env var is the standard pattern for debug logging in Node.js tooling. Plugin option provides a code-level toggle for teams that want verbose logging as default during development.
+
+### 3. Use Vite's built-in logger, not raw console
+
+Access `config.logger` from the `configResolved` hook. Use `.info()` for verbose, `.warn()` for elimination warnings. This integrates with Vite's log level controls and output formatting.
+
+**Rationale**: Using Vite's logger means `--logLevel silent` suppresses our output too, which is correct behavior for CI builds that pipe output. Raw console would bypass Vite's log management.
+
+### 4. Prefix all output with `[animus]`
+
+Every log line starts with `[animus]` for grep-ability.
+
+**Rationale**: In a Vite build with multiple plugins, filtering to just extraction output needs a consistent prefix.
+
+### 5. Parse manifest.report and manifest.usage in the plugin
+
+The manifest JSON is already parsed. We just need to read `.report.eliminated_details[]` and `.report.components_extracted` / `.components_total` etc. No new Rust-side changes needed.
+
+**Rationale**: Zero-cost on the Rust side. The data is already serialized. We're just reading what's already there.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk] Warning noise on intentional elimination** → The reconciler correctly eliminates unused components. Warnings for these are technically false alarms. Mitigation: the warning message includes the reason ("not rendered and not a parent"), so developers can distinguish intentional from unexpected.
+- **[Risk] Verbose mode performance cost** → Phase timing adds `performance.now()` calls. Mitigation: negligible compared to Rust extraction and Vite bundling. Only active when verbose is on.
+- **[Risk] Log format becomes a de facto API** → Other tools may parse our output. Mitigation: prefix with `[animus]` and keep format stable, but don't guarantee it. Structured JSON output is a future enhancement if needed.

+## Why
+
+The extraction pipeline (Rust NAPI → Vite plugin → CSS output) is a black box. When components silently disappear from production CSS — as StratumRow did — there is no way to diagnose why without writing throwaway scripts. The manifest already contains reconciliation reports and usage ledgers, but the Vite plugin never surfaces this data. Every extraction debugging session starts from zero.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Add structured verbose logging to the Vite plugin, controlled by `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1` env var or `verbose: true` plugin option
+- Surface reconciliation elimination warnings **always** (not just in verbose mode) — silent component elimination is the most dangerous failure mode
+- Add phase-level timing in verbose mode for performance investigation
+- All output is grep-friendly with `[animus]` prefix
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `extraction-diagnostics`: Structured logging across all plugin lifecycle phases (buildStart, transform, HMR) with reconciliation report surfacing and phase timing
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts` — primary change site: verbose flag, logging at each lifecycle phase, reconciliation report parsing
+- `packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md` — document verbose mode and env var
+- Plugin options type (`AnimusExtractOptions`) gains optional `verbose` field

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Reconciliation elimination warnings always print
+The plugin SHALL print a warning via Vite's logger for every component eliminated during reconciliation, regardless of verbose mode. Each warning SHALL include the component binding name and the elimination reason from `manifest.report.eliminated_details`.
+
+#### Scenario: Component eliminated as not rendered
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject` produces a manifest where `report.eliminated_details` contains an entry with `kind: "component"` and `reason: "component not rendered and not a parent"`
+- **THEN** the plugin prints `[animus] ⚠ <binding> eliminated: not rendered and not a parent` via `logger.warn()`

+
+#### Scenario: No eliminations
+- **WHEN** `report.eliminated_details` is empty
+- **THEN** no elimination warnings are printed

+
+#### Scenario: Env var activation
+- **WHEN** `process.env.ANIMUS_DEBUG` is `"1"` or `"true"`
+- **THEN** verbose logging is active for all phases
+
+#### Scenario: Plugin option activation
+- **WHEN** `animusExtract({ verbose: true })` is configured
+- **THEN** verbose logging is active for all phases
+
+#### Scenario: Default off
+- **WHEN** neither env var nor option is set
+- **THEN** only elimination warnings print (no verbose output)
+
+### Requirement: buildStart phase logging
+When verbose mode is active, the plugin SHALL log checkpoints at each phase of `buildStart` with timing.
+
+#### Scenario: System load checkpoint
+- **WHEN** system subprocess completes
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] System loaded: <n> props, <n> groups (<ms>ms)`
+
+#### Scenario: File discovery checkpoint
+- **WHEN** file discovery completes
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] Discovered <n> files (<n> from packages)`
+
+#### Scenario: Analysis checkpoint
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject` returns
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] Extracted <extracted>/<total> components (<ms>ms)`
+
+#### Scenario: Reconciliation summary
+- **WHEN** manifest report is parsed
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] Reconciliation: <n> components, <n> variants pruned, <n> states pruned`
+
+#### Scenario: CSS summary
+- **WHEN** CSS string is assembled
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] CSS: <n> bytes (<n> components)`
+
+### Requirement: Transform phase logging
+When verbose mode is active, the plugin SHALL log each file transformation.
+
+#### Scenario: File with components transformed
+- **WHEN** `transformFile` returns `hasComponents: true`
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] transform <relative-path>: <n> components`
+
+#### Scenario: File with no components
+- **WHEN** `transformFile` returns `hasComponents: false`
+- **THEN** no transform log is emitted (to reduce noise)
+
+### Requirement: HMR phase logging
+When verbose mode is active, the plugin SHALL log HMR decisions.
+
+#### Scenario: File unchanged by content hash
+- **WHEN** HMR detects a file change but content hash matches cached value
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] HMR skip: <filename> (unchanged)`
+
+#### Scenario: Geological reset triggered
+- **WHEN** HMR detects a change to the system file, triggering full re-analysis
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] HMR geological reset: <filename>`
+
+### Requirement: Grep-friendly output format
+All diagnostic output from the plugin SHALL be prefixed with `[animus]` to enable filtering in mixed Vite output.
+
+#### Scenario: Output prefix
+- **WHEN** any diagnostic message is emitted
+- **THEN** the message starts with `[animus]`
+
+#### Scenario: Grep filtering

+## Why
+
+The showcase manifesto still had escape hatches: `className="ember-glow"` referencing CSS classes, `@keyframes` in a separate `global.css` file, and a `pre[style]` override. The DEFINE_EXAMPLE code string also showed the wrong variant API (Stitches-style positional args instead of Animus config object). A manifesto that doesn't fully dogfood the system undermines the message. Every remaining CSS file and raw className is a contradiction.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- `@keyframes` definitions moved into `.withGlobalStyles({ global: { '@keyframes ember': {...}, ... } })` — the global styles pipeline now handles nested at-rule serialization
+- Animation CSS classes (`.ember-glow`, `.tally-number`) eliminated — `animation` property used directly as a system prop on Display (via `motion: true` group)
+- `pre[style]` override moved into `.withGlobalStyles()` global block
+- `global.css` and `reset.css` deleted — zero CSS files in the showcase
+- `global.css` import removed from `main.tsx`
+- DEFINE_EXAMPLE string corrected: `.variant('elevation', {...})` → `.variant({ prop: 'elevation', variants: {...} })`
+- Display component gains `motion: true` in its groups for `animation` system prop access
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `showcase-manifesto`: Full dogfooding — zero CSS files, zero raw classNames, zero inline styles. Everything through the system.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Showcase** (`packages/showcase/`): `global.css` and `reset.css` deleted. `main.tsx` imports only `virtual:animus/styles.css`. `App.tsx` uses `animation` prop instead of `className`. `components.tsx` adds `motion: true` to Display. `ds.ts` gains keyframe + pre[style] definitions in global styles.

+## Context
+
+The showcase (`packages/showcase/`) is the extraction pipeline's primary integration test. It currently defines 22 components in a single `src/components.tsx`, with a separate `SyntaxBlock.tsx` already split out. `App.tsx` imports everything from `components.tsx`. The design system instance lives in `ds.ts`.
+
+The surgical HMR invalidation we just built (compare per-component replacement strings, invalidate only stale definition files) works correctly but is effectively all-or-nothing when everything is colocated. The pipeline's import resolver, provenance resolution, and barrel export handling have never been exercised by the showcase.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Structure components so HMR invalidation is surgical (one component change = one file re-evaluated)
+- Exercise import resolver's re-export chain resolution (barrel index)
+- Exercise cross-file extension provenance (component extends base from different file)
+- Exercise sub-directory file discovery
+- Maintain identical visual output — the rendered showcase is the acceptance test
+- Surface any extraction pipeline bugs that only manifest in multi-file codebases
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing any component's styles, variants, or behavior
+- Adding new components or removing existing ones
+- TSConfig path aliases for now — the risk of breaking extraction transforms (known issue with Vite resolve aliases) outweighs the testing value. Revisit after extraction is more mature.
+- Changing `ds.ts` or the design system configuration
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Component grouping by function, not alphabet
+
+Group components into subdirectories that reflect their purpose:
+
+```
+src/components/
+  index.ts                    ← barrel: re-exports everything
+  layout/
+    Scene.tsx                 ← full-page container
+    Slab.tsx                  ← section container
+    Stack.tsx                 ← vertical flex
+    Row.tsx                   ← horizontal flex
+    StratumRow.tsx            ← data row with variant
+    EmberDivider.tsx          ← thematic divider
+  typography/
+    Display.tsx               ← hero headings
+    Prose.tsx                 ← body text
+    Mono.tsx                  ← monospace text
+    Label.tsx                 ← small labels
+    SectionLabel.tsx          ← section headings
+    Accent.tsx                ← accent inline
+    Strong.tsx                ← strong inline
+  surfaces/
+    CodeBlock.tsx             ← code display (unused, kept for pipeline coverage)
+    SyntaxBlock.tsx           ← syntax-highlighted code (move from src/SyntaxBlock.tsx)
+    Callout.tsx               ← callout boxes
+    RevealBlock.tsx           ← reveal/spoiler blocks
+  decorative/
+    GradientBar.tsx           ← gradient line
+    ReadingBarTrack.tsx       ← reading progress
+    GoldDash.tsx              ← decorative dash (unused, kept for coverage)
+    VerticalBleed.tsx         ← vertical bleed effect
+    HorizontalMark.tsx        ← horizontal mark
+    Divider.tsx               ← simple divider (unused, kept for coverage)
+```
+
+**Rationale**: Functional grouping mirrors real app organization. Keeping unused components (CodeBlock, Divider, GoldDash) exercises the reconciler's elimination path — they should appear as warnings in verbose mode.
+
+### 2. Barrel index with named re-exports
+
+```typescript
+// src/components/index.ts
+export { Scene } from './layout/Scene';
+export { Slab } from './layout/Slab';
+// ...etc
+```
+
+Not `export * from` — named re-exports are more realistic and more precisely test the import resolver's binding resolution (it must match specific export names, not wildcard).
+
+**Rationale**: Named re-exports are the common pattern in production codebases and are the harder case for the import resolver.
+
+### 3. Cross-file extension chain
+
+Create at least one extension chain across files. Candidate: `EmberDivider` could extend a `BaseDivider` defined in `layout/` or `decorative/`. Or `SectionLabel` could extend `Label`.
+
+**Rationale**: Cross-file extension exercises the provenance resolution in `project_analyzer.rs` Phase 3, which resolves `extends_from` bindings across file boundaries via the binding map.
+
+### 4. Each component file imports `ds` from the same path
+
+```typescript
+// Every component file
+import { ds } from '../../ds';
+```
+
+The relative path depth changes per subdirectory but always resolves to the same `ds.ts`.
+
+**Rationale**: This is how real apps work — shared design system instance imported from a central location.
+
+### 5. No TSConfig path aliases (for now)
+
+Known danger: Vite resolve aliases have broken extraction transforms before. The extraction plugin's transform hook can be bypassed when Vite applies alias resolution. Deferring this to a separate change where we can isolate and test the interaction carefully.
+
+**Rationale**: Risk/reward is wrong for this change. The restructure already exercises 4 new pipeline patterns without aliases.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk] Import resolver doesn't follow barrel re-exports** → If the import resolver can't resolve `from './components'` → `components/index.ts` → individual files, cross-file provenance breaks. Mitigation: the resolver already handles index file resolution; barrel re-exports add named export resolution on top.
+- **[Risk] Relative path depth changes break something** → Component files now import `ds` from `../../ds` instead of `./ds`. Mitigation: these are standard relative imports; the extraction pipeline resolves them the same way.
+- **[Risk] File discovery misses subdirectories** → The `discoverFiles()` function in the plugin recursively walks directories. Subdirectories should be found. Mitigation: verify during implementation.
+- **[Trade-off] More files = slightly slower full build** → 22+ files instead of 1. Mitigation: each file is tiny (one component); parse + extract time per file is minimal.

+## Why
+
+The showcase puts all 22 components in a single `components.tsx` file. This means HMR invalidation is all-or-nothing — changing one system prop on one component resets animation state for all 22. More critically, the extraction pipeline is only tested against the single-file pattern. Real applications use multi-file component directories, barrel re-exports, and cross-file extension chains — patterns that exercise the import resolver, provenance resolution, and file discovery in ways the current structure never touches.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Split `src/components.tsx` into a `src/components/` directory with individual component files grouped by function
+- Add a barrel `src/components/index.ts` that re-exports all components (tests import resolver re-export chain)
+- Introduce at least one cross-file extension chain (component in one file extending a base from another)
+- Update `App.tsx` imports to use the barrel index
+- Optionally test TSConfig path alias patterns if safe (known danger zone — Vite resolve aliases have broken extraction transforms before)
+- Visual output of the showcase MUST remain identical — this is a structural refactor only
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `showcase-multi-file-structure`: Requirements for how the showcase organizes components to exercise extraction pipeline patterns (barrel exports, cross-file extensions, grouped subdirectories, per-file HMR granularity)
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/showcase/src/components.tsx` — removed, replaced by directory
+- `packages/showcase/src/components/` — new directory with individual files + barrel index
+- `packages/showcase/src/App.tsx` — import paths updated

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Per-file component definitions
+Each component in the showcase SHALL be defined in its own file within `src/components/`. Each file SHALL export exactly one component as a named export.
+
+#### Scenario: Single component per file
+- **WHEN** a component file like `layout/StratumRow.tsx` is examined
+- **THEN** it exports exactly one component (`export const StratumRow = ...`) and imports `ds` from the shared design system module
+
+#### Scenario: HMR granularity
+- **WHEN** a system prop value is changed on a component rendered inside a `.map()` callback in App.tsx
+- **THEN** only the definition file for that component is re-transformed (not all 22 component files)
+
+### Requirement: Barrel index re-exports
+The showcase SHALL have a `src/components/index.ts` barrel file that re-exports all components using named re-exports (`export { X } from './path'`).
+
+#### Scenario: Named re-export resolution
+- **WHEN** `App.tsx` imports `{ StratumRow } from './components'`
+- **THEN** the extraction pipeline's import resolver follows the chain: `./components` → `components/index.ts` → `layout/StratumRow.tsx` and correctly resolves the component binding
+
+#### Scenario: All components accessible via barrel
+- **WHEN** `App.tsx` imports any component from `'./components'`
+- **THEN** the import resolves to the correct individual component file
+
+### Requirement: Grouped subdirectories
+Components SHALL be organized into subdirectories within `src/components/` grouped by function (e.g., `layout/`, `typography/`, `surfaces/`, `decorative/`).
+
+#### Scenario: Recursive file discovery
+- **WHEN** the Vite plugin discovers source files at buildStart
+- **THEN** all component files in subdirectories are included in the analysis
+
+#### Scenario: Relative import resolution across depths
+- **WHEN** a component in `components/layout/StratumRow.tsx` imports `ds` from `../../ds`
+- **THEN** the import resolves correctly in both the extraction pipeline and Vite bundler
+
+### Requirement: Cross-file extension chain
+At least one component SHALL extend a base component defined in a different file, exercising the extraction pipeline's cross-file provenance resolution.
+
+#### Scenario: Extension resolved across files
+- **WHEN** component A in `file-a.tsx` extends component B in `file-b.tsx`
+- **THEN** `analyzeProject` correctly resolves the provenance (A's parent is B) and generates merged CSS for A that inherits B's base styles
+
+#### Scenario: Extension chain in production CSS
+- **WHEN** the showcase is built for production
+- **THEN** the extended component's CSS includes inherited styles from its parent, and the parent's CSS is emitted before the child's in topological order
+
+### Requirement: Visual output preservation
+The rendered showcase SHALL be visually identical before and after the restructure. No component styles, variants, or behavior SHALL change.
+
+#### Scenario: Production build comparison
+- **WHEN** the showcase is built for production after restructure
+- **THEN** the HTML output and visual rendering are identical to the pre-restructure build
+
+#### Scenario: Component count preserved
+- **WHEN** `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1` build is run after restructure
+- **THEN** the same number of components are extracted (minus any intentional reconciler eliminations for unused components)
+
+### Requirement: Unused components retained for pipeline coverage
+Components that are defined but never rendered in App.tsx (CodeBlock, Divider, GoldDash) SHALL be retained in the component directory. Their elimination by the reconciler exercises the pipeline's dead-code detection.
+
+#### Scenario: Reconciler elimination warnings
+- **WHEN** `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1` showcase build runs
+- **THEN** unused components appear as elimination warnings: `[animus] ⚠ CodeBlock eliminated: component not rendered and not a parent`

+## Context
+
+The extraction pipeline currently produces CSS at the right granularity — the Rust crate computes `base`, `variants`, `states` layer content separately via `generate_layer_content()`, then concatenates them into one string. The plugin holds `variableCss` and `globalCss` as separate strings from theme evaluation and global styles resolution. Everything is born structured but concatenated at two pipeline layers before delivery.
+
+In dev mode, Vite serves virtual CSS modules as `<style>` tags. Any change to the virtual module replaces the entire tag, resetting all CSS animations. Component CSS changes frequently during development; layer declarations, variables, and global styles change only on geological reset (system/theme/config file edits — which trigger full page reload anyway).
+
+The Constructable StyleSheets API (`new CSSStyleSheet()` + `document.adoptedStyleSheets` + `sheet.replaceSync()`) provides animation-safe CSS updates — the browser internally diffs unchanged rules when `replaceSync()` is called.
+
+**Current CSS composition (single virtual module):**
+
+```
+virtual:animus/styles.css
+├── variableCss           (plugin — theme-evaluator.ts)
+│   ├── :root { --color-navy-500: ... }
+│   └── [data-color-mode="dark"] { ... }
+├── globalCss             (plugin — resolve-global-styles subprocess)
+│   └── @layer global { reset + global styles }
+└── resolvedComponentCss  (Rust — css_generator + project_analyzer)
+    ├── @layer global, base, variants, states, system, custom;
+    ├── @layer base { .animus-Scene-xxx { ... } ... }
+    ├── @layer variants { ... }
+    ├── @layer states { ... }
+    ├── @layer system { ... }
+    └── @layer custom { ... }
+```
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Rust crate returns structured per-layer CSS sheets instead of a concatenated blob
+- Dev mode delivers component CSS via Constructable StyleSheet (animation-safe HMR)
+- Dev mode delivers static CSS (layer decl + vars + globals) via regular Vite CSS module
+- HMR bridge auto-injected by plugin, zero manual setup
+- Production path unchanged — single CSS file, no bridge, no runtime
+- Foundation for future CSS code-splitting (structured data enables `emitFile` per-page splits later)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Production CSS code-splitting via `emitFile` (future change — data will be ready)
+- Configurable `@layer` naming/ordering (separate concern, can build on this later)
+- Per-component adopted stylesheets (one sheet for all component CSS is sufficient)
+- Shadow DOM / web component scoping
+
+## Decisions
+
+### D1: Rust returns `CssSheets` struct alongside concatenated `css`
+
+**Choice:** Add a `sheets: CssSheets` field to `UniverseManifest` with per-layer strings. Keep `css: String` populated as the concatenation.
+
+**Why:** The data is already computed separately in `generate_css_ordered()` — base, variants, states each via `generate_layer_content_slice()`. Utility and custom CSS are generated separately in `project_analyzer.rs:651-665`. We just need to stop discarding the individual pieces. Keeping `css` ensures backward compatibility and the prod path doesn't need to change.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Have the plugin split the concatenated string via regex. Rejected — fragile, and we'd be splitting something the Rust crate already has in split form.
+
+**Rust struct:**
+```rust
+#[derive(Debug, Serialize, Deserialize)]
+pub struct CssSheets {
+    pub declaration: String,  // @layer global, base, ...;
+    pub base: String,         // @layer base { ... }
+    pub variants: String,     // @layer variants { ... }
+    pub states: String,       // @layer states { ... }
+    pub system: String,       // @layer system { ... }
+    pub custom: String,       // @layer custom { ... }
+}
+```
+
+### D2: Component CSS delivered as JS module, not CSS module
+
+**Choice:** In dev mode, component CSS is served as a virtual JS module (`virtual:animus/components.js`) that exports a CSS string. A bridge module creates a `CSSStyleSheet` and calls `replaceSync()`. This bypasses Vite's `<style>` tag replacement entirely.
+
+**Why:** Vite's CSS HMR always replaces the full `<style>` tag — there is no way to do partial updates through the CSS pipeline. By serving component CSS as a JS string, we control the update mechanism ourselves via the Constructable StyleSheets API.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Vite `?inline` or `?raw` CSS imports. Rejected — virtual modules don't support query suffixes reliably, and we'd still need the bridge module anyway.
+
+### D3: Bridge auto-injected via `transformIndexHtml`
+
+**Choice:** The plugin injects a `<script type="module">` tag via Vite's `transformIndexHtml` hook that imports the bridge module. Dev-only — not injected during `command === 'build'`.
+
+**Why:** No changes needed to `transform_emitter.rs` or per-file transforms. The bridge is a singleton that manages one adopted stylesheet for all component CSS. Injecting at the HTML level is the natural place for a singleton.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Import bridge in every transformed file. Rejected — wasteful, bridge is a singleton. Alternative: import bridge in entry point (main.tsx). Rejected — requires user action.
+
+### D4: Static CSS keeps the same virtual module ID
+
+**Choice:** `virtual:animus/styles.css` continues to exist but now serves only the static portion (layer declaration + variables + globals). Transformed files still `import 'virtual:animus/styles.css'`.
+
+**Why:** Zero changes to transform_emitter.rs. The import is already in every transformed file. The static content is what you want tree-shaken into the build — it's the baseline that every page needs.
+
+### D5: Layer declaration lives in both static CSS and Rust output
+
+**Choice:** The Rust crate continues to emit `@layer global, base, variants, states, system, custom;` in `sheets.declaration`. The static virtual CSS also emits it. Harmless duplication — re-declaring the same layer order is a no-op per CSS spec.
+
+**Why:** Zero coordination needed between Rust and plugin about who owns the declaration. The adopted stylesheet's rules slot into already-declared layers regardless. This is the simplest option with no correctness risk.
+
+### D6: Production path unchanged (for now)
+
+**Choice:** In production (`command === 'build'`), the `load` hook concatenates all sheets back together and serves them as a single CSS file, identical to current behavior. No bridge injected.
+
+**Why:** Production builds don't have the animation-reset problem (no HMR). The structured sheets data is available for future `emitFile`-based code-splitting but we don't need to use it yet.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Adopted stylesheet ordering vs `<style>` tag ordering** — Adopted stylesheets have different cascade position than `<style>` tags. Per spec, adopted stylesheets come AFTER `<style>` tags in the cascade. Since our component CSS is in declared `@layer`s, and layers take precedence over source order for unlayered CSS, this is fine. But if users have unlayered CSS that expects to override component styles by source order, this would break.
+→ *Mitigation:* All Animus CSS is layered. Document that user overrides should use `@layer` or higher specificity, not source order.
+
+**[Risk] Browser support for Constructable StyleSheets** — `adoptedStyleSheets` + `replaceSync()` requires Chrome 73+, Firefox 101+, Safari 16.4+. This is dev-only, so only the developer's browser matters.
+→ *Mitigation:* Dev-only feature. Graceful fallback: if `CSSStyleSheet` constructor isn't available, fall back to `<style>` tag injection (current behavior). Log a warning.
+
+**[Risk] Layer declaration duplication** — The `@layer` declaration appears in both the static CSS module and the adopted stylesheet (via Rust output). While spec-compliant, it's technically redundant.
+→ *Mitigation:* Harmless per CSS spec. Could strip from Rust output later if desired, but not worth the coordination cost now.
+
+**[Risk] HMR bridge state management** — If the bridge module is re-evaluated (e.g., during full HMR), it must not create duplicate adopted stylesheets.
+→ *Mitigation:* Bridge checks for existing sheet before creating. Use a well-known property on the sheet object or a module-level singleton guarded by `import.meta.hot.data`.

+## Why
+
+The virtual CSS module (`virtual:animus/styles.css`) currently serves one monolithic blob: layer declaration + variables + reset + global styles + component CSS. The data is *born structured* — the Rust crate computes base/variants/states/system/custom CSS separately via `generate_layer_content()`, then concatenates them. The plugin holds `variableCss` and `globalCss` as separate strings, then concatenates those too. We discard natural boundaries at two layers of the pipeline.
+
+In dev mode, Vite's HMR replaces the entire `<style>` tag on any change, which resets all CSS animations — even when only one component's styles changed. The reset/global/variables content never changes during active development (only on geological reset), yet it's re-injected on every HMR cycle.
+
+**Stop discarding the structure.** Return structured sheets from Rust, let the plugin decide delivery strategy per environment.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Rust crate returns structured CSS sheets** — instead of one concatenated `css: String`, the manifest includes a `sheets` object with per-layer CSS strings (declaration, base, variants, states, system, custom). The concatenated `css` field is kept for backward compatibility.
+- **Plugin splits delivery into two mechanisms (dev mode):**
+  - **Static virtual CSS** (`virtual:animus/styles.css`) — `@layer` declaration + `:root` variables + color mode selectors + `@layer global { reset + global styles }`. Regular Vite CSS module (`<style>` tag), only changes on geological reset (full page reload anyway).
+  - **Adopted StyleSheet** via JS bridge — component CSS (`@layer base/variants/states/system/custom`) served as a JS module exporting a CSS string. Bridge creates a `CSSStyleSheet`, calls `replaceSync()`. Animation-safe — browser internally diffs unchanged rules.
+- **Production: unchanged.** Single static CSS file (all sheets concatenated), no bridge, no runtime.
+- **HMR bridge auto-injected** via `transformIndexHtml` hook. ~20 lines, dev-only. Zero prod bundle impact.
+- **Future (not this change):** `emitFile` API for prod CSS code-splitting (static globals CDN-cacheable separately from per-page component CSS). Provenance chain already provides the data for this.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `structured-css-sheets`: Rust crate returns per-layer CSS strings instead of a single concatenated blob
+- `dev-stylesheet-management`: Dev-mode CSS delivery via static virtual CSS (globals) + Constructable StyleSheet (components), with animation-safe `replaceSync()` HMR updates
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/extract/src/css_generator.rs` — return per-layer strings instead of concatenating
+- `packages/extract/src/project_analyzer.rs` — add `sheets` field to `UniverseManifest`
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts` — split `load` hook into two virtual modules, add HMR bridge injection via `transformIndexHtml`
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/hmr-bridge.ts` — new, dev-only client module (~20 lines)
+- Production build path: unchanged (concatenates sheets back together)
+- Browser requirement: Constructable StyleSheets (`adoptedStyleSheets` + `CSSStyleSheet.replaceSync()`) — supported in all evergreen browsers since 2023

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Static CSS served via regular virtual module
+In dev mode, `virtual:animus/styles.css` SHALL serve only the static portion: layer declaration, CSS variable declarations (`:root` + color mode selectors), and global styles (`@layer global { ... }`). Component CSS (`@layer base/variants/states/system/custom`) SHALL NOT be included.
+
+#### Scenario: Static module content in dev
+- **WHEN** `virtual:animus/styles.css` is loaded in dev mode
+- **THEN** it contains the `@layer` declaration statement
+- **AND** it contains `:root` variable declarations
+- **AND** it contains `@layer global { ... }` with reset and global styles
+- **AND** it does NOT contain `@layer base`, `@layer variants`, `@layer states`, `@layer system`, or `@layer custom` blocks
+
+#### Scenario: Static module content in prod
+- **WHEN** `virtual:animus/styles.css` is loaded in production build
+- **THEN** it contains ALL CSS (layer declaration + variables + globals + component CSS) — identical to current behavior
+
+### Requirement: Component CSS delivered via adopted stylesheet in dev
+In dev mode, component CSS SHALL be delivered via a Constructable StyleSheet managed by an auto-injected HMR bridge module. The bridge SHALL create a `CSSStyleSheet`, call `replaceSync()` with the component CSS string, and add the sheet to `document.adoptedStyleSheets`.
+
+#### Scenario: Component CSS applied via adopted stylesheet
+- **WHEN** the dev server starts and the page loads
+- **THEN** `document.adoptedStyleSheets` contains a stylesheet with the component CSS
+- **AND** all `@layer base/variants/states/system/custom` rules are present in the adopted sheet
+
+#### Scenario: HMR update preserves animations
+- **WHEN** a component file is edited and saved during dev
+- **AND** CSS animations are running on other components
+- **THEN** the bridge calls `replaceSync()` with the updated component CSS
+- **AND** running CSS animations on unchanged components are NOT reset
+
+### Requirement: HMR bridge auto-injected in dev mode
+The plugin SHALL inject the HMR bridge via the `transformIndexHtml` hook. The bridge MUST NOT be injected during production builds.
+
+#### Scenario: Bridge present in dev HTML
+- **WHEN** the dev server serves index.html
+- **THEN** a `<script type="module">` tag is present that imports the bridge module
+
+#### Scenario: Bridge absent in prod build
+- **WHEN** a production build is performed
+- **THEN** the built HTML does NOT contain the bridge module import
+- **AND** no bridge-related JS is in the production bundle
+
+### Requirement: Bridge is a singleton
+The HMR bridge SHALL maintain a single `CSSStyleSheet` instance across HMR updates. It MUST NOT create duplicate adopted stylesheets on module re-evaluation.
+
+#### Scenario: No duplicate stylesheets on HMR
+- **WHEN** the bridge module is re-evaluated due to HMR
+- **THEN** `document.adoptedStyleSheets` contains exactly one Animus-managed stylesheet
+- **AND** the existing sheet is updated via `replaceSync()`, not replaced with a new sheet
+
+### Requirement: Graceful fallback when Constructable StyleSheets unavailable
+If the browser does not support `CSSStyleSheet` constructor or `adoptedStyleSheets`, the bridge SHALL fall back to injecting component CSS via a `<style>` tag (current behavior) and log a warning.
+
+#### Scenario: Fallback to style tag
+- **WHEN** `typeof CSSStyleSheet === 'undefined'` or `!('adoptedStyleSheets' in document)`
+- **THEN** the bridge creates a `<style>` element with the component CSS
+- **AND** a warning is logged indicating the fallback
+
+### Requirement: Component CSS virtual module serves JS string
+A virtual JS module (`virtual:animus/components.js`) SHALL export the component CSS as a default string export. This module is consumed by the HMR bridge, not by user code.
+
+#### Scenario: Virtual JS module content
+- **WHEN** `virtual:animus/components.js` is loaded in dev mode
+- **THEN** it exports a string containing all component layer CSS (`@layer base { ... }` through `@layer custom { ... }`)
+
+#### Scenario: Virtual JS module not resolved in prod
+- **WHEN** a production build is performed
+- **THEN** `virtual:animus/components.js` is NOT resolved (component CSS is in the static CSS file)
+
+### Requirement: Transform emitter unchanged
+The Rust `transform_emitter` SHALL continue to emit `import 'virtual:animus/styles.css'` in transformed files. No changes to per-file transform output.
+
+#### Scenario: Transformed file imports unchanged
+- **WHEN** a file containing an extractable builder chain is transformed
+- **THEN** the transformed output includes `import 'virtual:animus/styles.css'`
+- **AND** it does NOT import the bridge or component JS module

+
+#### Scenario: Manifest includes structured sheets
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project` is called with valid file entries
+- **THEN** the returned manifest JSON includes a `sheets` object with string fields: `declaration`, `base`, `variants`, `states`, `system`, `custom`

+
+#### Scenario: css field unchanged for existing consumers
+- **WHEN** a consumer reads `manifest.css`

+
+#### Scenario: Declaration contains only the ordering statement
+- **WHEN** `sheets.declaration` is read
+- **THEN** it contains `@layer global, base, variants, states, system, custom;` followed by a newline
+- **AND** it does not contain any rule blocks

+## Context
+
+Animus currently has three separate packages for design system definition: `@animus-ui/theming` (token scales, color modes), `@animus-ui/core` (builder chain, prop groups, transforms, Emotion runtime), and `@animus-ui/runtime` (extraction shim). The extraction pipeline has made Emotion unnecessary for the component creation path — static CSS replaces runtime style compilation. But `core` still carries Emotion as a dependency, and the type system still routes through global augmentable interfaces (`Theme`, `CompatTheme`, `AbstractTheme`).
+
+The builder chain currently has 3 leading generics (`PropRegistry`, `GroupRegistry`, `BaseParser`) with no theme parameterization. Theme types resolve through a global `Theme` interface augmented via `declare module`, falling back to `CompatTheme` defaults.
+
+### Current generic signatures
+
+```
+Animus<PropRegistry, GroupRegistry, BaseParser>
+  → AnimusWithBase<PR, GR, BP, BaseStyles>
+    → AnimusWithVariants<PR, GR, BP, BS, Variants>
+      → AnimusWithStates<PR, GR, BP, BS, V, States>
+        → AnimusWithSystem<PR, GR, BP, BS, V, S, ActiveGroups>
+          → AnimusWithAll<PR, GR, BP, BS, V, S, AG, CustomProps>
+
+AnimusExtended<PR, GR, BP, BS, V, S, AG, CP> (8 generics, flexible ordering)
+
+ScaleValue<Config extends Prop> — resolves via keyof Theme | keyof CompatTheme | MapScale | ArrayScale
+```
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- New `@animus-ui/system` package with zero Emotion dependency
+- Concentric builder API: `createSystem().withTokens().withProperties().build()`
+- `T extends BaseTheme` as first-class generic on all builder classes
+- `ScaleValue<Config, T>` resolves directly from `T` — no fallback chain
+- Single `.serialize()` method produces everything the Vite plugin needs
+- Showcase migrated to system package as proof of concept
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Modifying `@animus-ui/core` — it stays as-is for the Emotion path
+- Modifying `@animus-ui/theming` — ThemeBuilder is reused, not rewritten
+- Changing the Rust extraction crate — it consumes the same serialized config format
+- Changing the runtime shim — `createComponent` is unchanged
+- Removing Emotion from the monorepo — core still uses it
+- Transform registration API — transforms stay on prop definitions
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. New package vs core refactor
+
+**Decision:** New `packages/system/` package. Core stays untouched.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- Thread T through existing core (the superseded unified-theme-instance approach). Rejected: core carries Emotion, CompatTheme, createStylist, createParser — all legacy. Threading T through legacy code means maintaining backwards compatibility with `declare module` and the CompatTheme fallback chain simultaneously. Higher risk, same outcome.
+- Fork core and strip legacy. Rejected: "fork" implies the new package will track changes in core. It won't — the new package has fundamentally different constraints (no Emotion, T-first).
+
+**Rationale:** Clean-room rewrite of the builder chain and type system, reusing prop group definitions and the ThemeBuilder. The builder PATTERN is stable; the TYPE SYSTEM is what changes. A new package lets us build the correct type system without backwards-compatible contortions.
+
+**Risk:** Two builder chain implementations in the monorepo. Mitigated by: core is not being actively developed, only referenced. The system package is the forward path.
+
+### 2. Concentric builder with callback isolation
+
+**Decision:** `createSystem().withTokens(cb).withProperties(cb).build()` where each callback receives a phase-specific builder and returns its built result.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- Config object: `createSystem({ tokens, groups })`. Rejected: TypeScript must infer all generics simultaneously. When property types reference token scales (e.g., `scale: 'colors'` → `keyof T['colors']`), circular inference or widening occurs. Sequential method calls provide separate inference boundaries.
+- Flat builder: `createSystem().tokens({}).addGroup().build()`. Rejected: leaks phase-specific methods into the same namespace. Token methods (`.breakpoints()`, `.colors()`) shouldn't be callable after property phase.
+
+**Rationale:** Callbacks provide lexical isolation (each phase's methods are scoped), sequential inference (T resolved before GroupRegistry), and composability (callbacks can be extracted to separate files). The pattern mirrors the design system's conceptual dependency: tokens → properties → components.
+
+### 3. T as first generic parameter on all builder classes
+
+**Decision:** Add `T extends BaseTheme` as the FIRST generic on all 6 Animus classes and AnimusExtended (8 sub-classes). New signatures:
+
+```
+Animus<T, PropRegistry, GroupRegistry, BaseParser>
+  → AnimusWithBase<T, PR, GR, BP, BaseStyles>
+    → AnimusWithVariants<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, Variants>
+      → AnimusWithStates<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, V, States>
+        → AnimusWithSystem<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, V, S, ActiveGroups>
+          → AnimusWithAll<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, V, S, AG, CustomProps>
+
+AnimusExtended<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, V, S, AG, CP> (9 generics)
+```
+
+**Rationale:** T must be first because it's the most stable — set once in `.withTokens()` and never changes. All other generics narrow through the chain. First position means it's always the same across all class instantiations.
+
+**Risk:** TypeScript instantiation depth. 9 generics on AnimusExtended means 9 levels of generic nesting at each type resolution. Mitigated by: spike test with showcase's complex theme before full implementation.
+
+### 4. ScaleValue resolves directly from T
+
+**Decision:** Replace the multi-fallback chain:
+```typescript
+// Before (4 branches):
+type ScaleValue<Config> =
+  Config['scale'] extends keyof Theme ? keyof Theme[Config['scale']] | ...
+  : Config['scale'] extends MapScale ? keyof Config['scale'] | ...
+  : Config['scale'] extends ArrayScale ? Config['scale'][number] | ...
+  : Config['scale'] extends keyof CompatTheme ? CompatValue<...> | ...
+  : PropertyValues<Config, true>
+
+// After (2 branches):
+type ScaleValue<Config, T extends BaseTheme> =
+  Config['scale'] extends keyof T ? keyof T[Config['scale']] | PropertyValues<Config>
+  : Config['scale'] extends MapScale | ArrayScale ? ScaleKeys<Config['scale']> | PropertyValues<Config>
+  : PropertyValues<Config>
+```
+
+**Rationale:** No CompatTheme fallback. No global Theme reference. T IS the theme. If T has a `colors` scale, `keyof T['colors']` provides autocomplete. If T doesn't have a scale the prop references, it falls through to raw CSS values. This is simpler, faster to compile, and produces better error messages.
+
+### 5. Prop groups as source of truth in system package
+
+**Decision:** Copy the 13 prop group objects into `packages/system/src/groups/`. Export from `@animus-ui/system/groups`.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- Import from core: creates dependency on the legacy package.
+- Shared `@animus-ui/props` package: over-engineering for data that rarely changes.
+
+**Rationale:** Prop groups are pure data objects — no logic, no Emotion dependency. Copying ~200 lines of prop definitions is cheaper than maintaining a shared package. If core needs updates (it won't — it's frozen), the system package is the forward path.
+
+### 6. SystemInstance exposes builder chain directly
+
+**Decision:** `ds.styles()` works directly — no `ds.builder.styles()` indirection. System-level methods (`.serialize()`, `.tokens`) coexist on the same object.
+
+```typescript
+interface SystemInstance<T, PropReg, GroupReg> {
+  // Component creation (builder chain entry)
+  styles<Props>(config: CSSProps<Props, SystemProps<...>, T>): AnimusWithBase<T, ...>
+
+  // Plugin-facing
+  serialize(): { tokens: T; propConfig: PropReg; groupRegistry: GroupReg; transforms: TransformRegistry }
+  tokens: T
+
+  // Extension
+  // Inherited from Animus: variant(), states(), groups(), props(), asElement(), etc.
+}
+```
+
+**Rationale:** The primary use case is `ds.styles({...})` — component creation should be zero-friction. Plugin serialization is called once at build time. Mixing the two is acceptable because they serve different audiences (developer vs plugin) at different times (dev-time vs build-time).
+
+### 7. Plugin loads system via single subprocess
+
+**Decision:** Replace `loadConfig()` + `loadTheme()` + `resolveTransforms()` with one `loadSystem()` call that imports the system module and calls `.serialize()`.
+
+```typescript
+// Plugin subprocess:
+const { ds } = await import(systemPath);
+const config = ds.serialize();
+// → { tokens, propConfig, groupRegistry, transforms }
+```
+
+Transform registry built in-process from the serialized config. No separate `resolve-transforms.ts` subprocess.
+
+**Rationale:** The system instance IS the single source of truth. One import, one serialization call, one subprocess. Transforms come along because they're on prop definitions — `.serialize()` walks the groups and extracts them.
+
+### 8. ThemeBuilder reused inside .withTokens()
+
+**Decision:** The `.withTokens()` callback receives a fresh ThemeBuilder instance. The callback chains ThemeBuilder methods and returns `.build()`.
+
+```typescript
+.withTokens(t => t
+  .breakpoints({...})
+  .colors({...})
+  .colorModes('light', {...})
+  .build()
+)
+```
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- New token builder. Rejected: ThemeBuilder already does exactly this. Rewriting it duplicates work.
+- Accept a pre-built theme object. Partially accepted: if someone has an existing theme, `.withTokens(() => existingTheme)` works. But the callback pattern is primary for fresh definitions.
+
+**Rationale:** ThemeBuilder is stable, tested, and does exactly what we need. The only change: the system package imports from `@animus-ui/theming` (or copies the ThemeBuilder). The callback just provides a convenient entry point.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[TypeScript instantiation depth]** → Spike test with showcase theme before full implementation. If depth is hit, investigate type-level simplification (fewer conditional types, collapsed utility types). Worst case: reduce AnimusExtended generics by combining related types.
+
+**[Two builder chains in monorepo]** → Core is frozen, not actively developed. System is the forward path. Document this clearly. Delete core when no packages depend on it.
+
+**[ThemeBuilder dependency]** → System imports from theming package. If theming needs changes, they must be backwards-compatible. Alternatively: copy ThemeBuilder into system (breaks the dependency, allows independent evolution).
+
+**[Prop group drift]** → Groups copied into system could diverge from core. Mitigated: core is frozen. System groups are the source of truth going forward.
+
+**[lodash.merge in AnimusExtended]** → Currently used for variant/state merging. The system package should not carry lodash. Replace with a focused deep-merge utility (~20 lines) or use structuredClone + Object.assign.

+## Why
+
+The design system's provenance is fragmented across three packages with independent loading, serialization, and typing:
+
+1. **Tokens** (`@animus-ui/theming`) — scales, colors, color modes, breakpoints
+2. **Properties** (`@animus-ui/core`) — prop registry, group registry, transforms, Emotion runtime, CompatTheme fallback chain
+3. **Instance** (`createAnimus().addGroup().build()`) — the builder entry point, typed against a global augmentable `Theme` interface
+
+This fragmentation causes:
+
+- **3 bun subprocesses** in the Vite plugin: one for config, one for theme, one for transforms. Each adds ~50ms to startup and (for transforms) to every HMR cycle.
+- **`declare module` ceremony**: consumers must augment a global `Theme` interface for type-safe scale resolution.
+- **CompatTheme fallback chain**: Scale types resolve through `keyof Theme` → MapScale → ArrayScale → `keyof CompatTheme` → PropertyValues. A leaky abstraction from the Emotion era.
+- **Emotion coupling in core**: The builder chain uses `styled()`, `ThemeProvider`, and `css` — none of which are needed in the extraction world where static CSS replaces runtime style compilation.
+- **Transform subprocess on every HMR**: `resolve-transforms.ts` runs via bun on every file save. The transform functions exist in the prop registry — they should be loaded once and held in memory.
+- **Dead code accumulation**: `createStylist`, `createParser`, `createPropertyStyle`, `AbstractTheme`, `CompatTheme` — all exist to support the Emotion runtime path that extraction replaces.
+
+## What Changes
+
+New package `@animus-ui/system` — a clean-room design system definition layer that combines tokens, properties, and the builder chain with no Emotion dependency. Core stays as a stable reference for the Emotion-based path.
+
+### Consumer API — Concentric Builder
+
+The system builder mirrors the design system dependency graph: tokens → properties → components. Each phase is a callback with its own builder, providing lexical isolation and sequential TypeScript generic inference.
+
+```typescript
+import { createSystem } from '@animus-ui/system';
+import { color, border, shadows, background, flex, grid, layout,
+         typography, transitions, space, positioning } from '@animus-ui/system/groups';
+
+export const ds = createSystem()
+  // Phase 1: TOKENS — what values exist (captures T)
+  .withTokens(t => t
+    .breakpoints({ xs: 480, sm: 768, md: 1024, lg: 1280, xl: 1440 })
+    .colors({ primary: '#4f46e5', secondary: '#7c3aed', /* ... */ })
+    .space([0, 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 64])
+    .colorModes('light', { bg: '#fff', text: '#1a1a1a' })
+    .build()
+  )
+  // Phase 2: PROPERTIES — how tokens map to CSS, grouped into vocabularies (captures PropReg, GroupReg)
+  .withProperties(p => p
+    .addGroup('surface', { color, border, shadows, background })
+    .addGroup('arrange', { flex, grid, layout })
+    .addGroup('text', { typography })
+    .addGroup('motion', { transitions })
+    .addGroup('space', space)
+    .addGroup('positioning', positioning)
+    .build()
+  )
+  // Terminal — returns SystemInstance<T, PropReg, GroupReg>
+  .build();
+
+// Component creation (builder chain, fully typed with T)
+const Card = ds.styles({ bg: 'surface', borderRadius: 'md' })
+  .variant({ elevated: { boxShadow: 'lg' } })
+  .groups(['surface', 'arrange'])
+  .asElement('div');
+
+// Plugin serialization (one call, one subprocess)
+ds.serialize()
+// → { tokens, propConfig, groupRegistry, transforms }
+```
+
+### Why Concentric Builders (Not a Config Object)
+
+Each `.with*()` call is a separate TypeScript generic inference boundary. The builder chain enforces sequential resolution:
+
+1. `.withTokens()` resolves `T` — the token scales
+2. `.withProperties()` resolves `PropReg` and `GroupReg` — which can reference `T` for scale-aware prop types
+3. `.build()` produces `SystemInstance<T, PropReg, GroupReg>` — fully narrowed
+
+A config object (`createSystem({ tokens, groups })`) would require TypeScript to infer all generics simultaneously, causing circular inference when property types reference token scales.
+
+This is the same reason the component builder chain exists — TypeScript needs sequential inference boundaries for dependent generics.
+
+### The Narrative
+
+The chain order mirrors the actual dependency order of design system concepts:
+
+```
+TOKENS           →  PROPERTIES         →  COMPONENTS
+what values exist   how they map to CSS   using them in action
+
+.withTokens()       .withProperties()     ds.styles()
+  colors              surface: {            bg: 'primary'
+  space                 color, border     }
+  breakpoints         }                   .groups(['surface'])
+                                          .asElement('div')
+```
+
+### Transforms Are an Extraction Concern
+
+Transforms stay on prop definitions (`{ property: 'width', transform: size }`). The builder chain never executes transforms — by the time a component exists, transforms have been resolved into static CSS by the extraction pipeline:
+
+```
+Source: ds.styles({ elevation: 3 })
+  → Rust: __TRANSFORM__[elevation](3)     ← placeholder
+  → Plugin: elevationFn(3)                ← JS execution
+  → CSS: box-shadow: 0 10px 15px ...      ← static output
+  → Runtime: className only               ← transform invisible
+```
+
+The system collects transform functions from prop definitions during `.serialize()`. No separate transform registration API needed.
+
+### Plugin Simplification
+
+```
+Before: 3 subprocesses           After: 1 subprocess
+─────────────────────            ──────────────────────
+bun -e loadConfig()              bun -e loadSystem()
+bun -e loadTheme()                 → tokens, propConfig, groups,
+bun -e resolveTransforms()           transforms ALL from ds.serialize()
+```
+
+### Plugin API
+
+```typescript
+// Before: multiple options for separate concerns
+animusExtract({
+  configPath: './src/custom-vocabulary.tsx',
+  themePath: './src/theme.ts',
+})
+
+// After: one option
+animusExtract({
+  system: './src/ds.ts',  // or auto-detect
+})
+```
+
+## What This Kills
+
+- `CompatTheme` type and its fallback chain
+- `AbstractTheme` interface (`[key: string]: any` escape hatch)
+- `Theme` augmentable interface (no more `declare module`)
+- `resolve-transforms.ts` as a subprocess script (transforms in-process)
+- `evaluateThemeObject` as a separate code path (tokens come from system instance)
+- Separate `themePath` / `configPath` plugin options
+- `serializeExtractConfig` as a standalone utility (system serializes itself)
+- The ~50-100ms bun subprocess cost on every HMR cycle
+- Emotion as a dependency for the extraction path
+- `@animus-ui/ui` package (dead code, no consumers in monorepo)
+
+## What Stays
+
+- **`@animus-ui/core`** — stays as stable reference for Emotion-based path. Not modified.
+- **`@animus-ui/theming`** — ThemeBuilder reused inside `.withTokens()` callback. Package may be kept or folded in.
+- **Prop group objects** — the 13 groups are pure data, shared or copied from core.
+- **Transform syntax** — `createTransform('name', fn)` and `{ transform: namedFn }` on prop definitions. Unchanged.
+- **Component builder chain** — `styles → variant → states → groups → props → asElement`. Same pattern, now generic over `<T, PropReg, GroupReg>`.
+- **AnimusExtended** — extension chains work the same, now carrying `T`.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `system-builder`: Concentric builder (`createSystem().withTokens().withProperties().build()`) as unified design system entry point
+- `system-serialization`: Single `.serialize()` method produces all plugin-needed config
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `builder-chain`: Theme generic `T` added to all 6 builder classes + AnimusExtended (in new package)
+- `prop-system`: `ScaleValue`, `Scale`, `CSSProps`, `ParserProps` all parameterized by `T` (in new package)
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Single `system` option, one subprocess, in-process transform registry
+- `custom-instance-extraction`: `configPath`/`themePath` replaced by `system` option
+
+### Removed Capabilities
+- `compat-theme-fallback`: CompatTheme type and fallback chain not present in system package
+
+## Impact
+
+### New Package: `packages/system/`
+- `src/SystemBuilder.ts` — concentric builder: `.withTokens()`, `.withProperties()`, `.build()`
+- `src/PropertyBuilder.ts` — `.addGroup()` accumulating PropReg + GroupReg
+- `src/Animus.ts` — builder chain (6 classes) rewritten with `T` as first-class generic
+- `src/AnimusExtended.ts` — extension system with `T`
+- `src/types/` — clean type system: `ScaleValue<Config, T>`, `CSSProps<..., T>`, no compat fallbacks
+- `src/groups/` — re-exported prop group objects (from core or standalone)
+- `src/transforms/` — createTransform utility + named transforms
+
+### Modified: `packages/vite-plugin/`
+- `src/index.ts` — single `system` option, one `loadSystem()` subprocess, in-process transform registry
+- Delete `src/resolve-transforms.ts`
+- Simplify `src/config-serializer.ts` (system handles serialization)
+- Simplify `src/theme-evaluator.ts` (tokens come from system)
+
+### Modified: `packages/showcase/`
+- Consolidate `theme.ts` + `custom-vocabulary.tsx` into one `ds.ts` using `createSystem()`
+- Remove `declare module` augmentation
+- Import from `@animus-ui/system` instead of `@animus-ui/core`
+
+### Unchanged
+- `packages/core/` — stays as-is, stable reference
+- `packages/extract/` — Rust crate unchanged (consumes same serialized config format)
+- `packages/runtime/` — createComponent shim unchanged
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- **TypeScript generic depth**: Threading `T` through 6 nested builder classes + type utilities creates deep generic instantiation chains. Need to spike with the showcase's theme (~30 color tokens, 6 scales, color modes) to verify TypeScript doesn't hit instantiation depth limits.
+- **ThemeBuilder reuse**: Does the existing ThemeBuilder's `.build()` output type cleanly satisfy what `SystemBuilder` needs? It has `_variables`, `_tokens`, `mode` — non-scale keys. May need a type-level filter or a new builder that wraps/adapts ThemeBuilder.
+- **Prop group sharing**: Copy the 13 group objects into system, or import from core? Importing creates a dependency on the legacy package. Copying risks drift. Best option may be extracting groups to a shared `@animus-ui/props` package or co-locating in system as the new source of truth.
+- **lodash.merge**: Currently used in AnimusExtended for variant accumulation. The rewrite is the right time to remove it.
+- **`createSystem` return shape**: Does `ds` expose the builder chain methods directly (`ds.styles()`) or via a property (`ds.builder.styles()`)? Direct is cleaner DX but mixes component-creation methods with system-level methods (`.serialize()`, `.theme`).
+
+## Supersedes
+
+- `openspec/changes/archive/2026-03-23-unified-theme-instance/` — that proposal threaded `T` through existing core. This creates a new package instead, avoiding legacy entanglement.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Progressive type accumulation via 8 generic parameters
+The builder chain SHALL use 9 generic parameters (up from 8), with `T extends BaseTheme` as the first parameter on all 6 classes and AnimusExtended. T SHALL be set by the SystemBuilder's `.withTokens()` phase and threaded through all subsequent type operations. The generic signature SHALL be:
+
+```
+Animus<T, PropRegistry, GroupRegistry, BaseParser>
+  → AnimusWithBase<T, PR, GR, BP, BaseStyles>
+    → AnimusWithVariants<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, Variants>
+      → AnimusWithStates<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, V, States>
+        → AnimusWithSystem<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, V, S, ActiveGroups>
+          → AnimusWithAll<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, V, S, AG, CustomProps>
+
+AnimusExtended<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, V, S, AG, CP>
+```
+
+#### Scenario: Type parameters carry style values
+- **WHEN** a component is created via `ds.styles({ color: 'primary', p: 8 })`
+- **THEN** the BaseStyles generic SHALL capture the specific prop types, and T SHALL constrain `'primary'` to be a valid key of `T['colors']`
+
+#### Scenario: Variant types accumulate across multiple calls
+- **WHEN** `.variant()` is called multiple times in an extension chain
+- **THEN** variant types SHALL merge, and T SHALL be preserved across all variant type accumulations
+
+### Requirement: Terminal methods materialize configuration into components
+Terminal methods (`.asElement()`, `.asComponent()`, `.build()`) SHALL produce components/handlers that are fully typed with T flowing through to prop types. Scale-resolved props SHALL autocomplete from `T[scale]`.
+
+#### Scenario: asElement creates a styled HTML element
+- **WHEN** `ds.styles({ bg: 'primary' }).asElement('div')` is called
+- **THEN** the resulting component's `bg` prop SHALL autocomplete with `keyof T['colors']` values
+
+#### Scenario: asComponent wraps an existing component
+- **WHEN** `.asComponent(ExistingComponent)` is called
+- **THEN** the resulting component SHALL carry T-derived prop types alongside the wrapped component's props
+
+#### Scenario: Terminal components carry extend()
+- **WHEN** `.extend()` is called on a terminal component
+- **THEN** the AnimusExtended instance SHALL carry the same T, enabling scale-resolved autocomplete in extension styles
+
+#### Scenario: build() produces a raw style function
+- **WHEN** `.build()` is called instead of a terminal
+- **THEN** the returned function's props SHALL be typed with T-derived scale values
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: No Emotion dependency in builder chain
+The system package's builder chain SHALL NOT import from `@emotion/styled`, `@emotion/react`, or any Emotion package. Terminal methods SHALL produce configuration objects consumed by the extraction pipeline and runtime shim, not Emotion styled components.
+
+#### Scenario: asElement produces extraction-compatible output
+- **WHEN** `.asElement('div')` is called on the system package builder
+- **THEN** the output SHALL be compatible with `createComponent()` from `@animus-ui/runtime`, not `styled()` from Emotion
+
+#### Scenario: No ThemeProvider required
+- **WHEN** a component created via the system builder is rendered
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT require an Emotion ThemeProvider in the React tree

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Custom instance extraction via explicit config
+Custom design system instances SHALL be configured via the `system` plugin option, replacing `configPath`. The system instance's `.serialize()` provides all extraction config including custom groups and transforms.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom instance with custom groups extracts correctly
+- **WHEN** a system instance defines custom groups (`surface`, `arrange`, etc.) and the plugin is configured with `system: './src/ds.ts'`
+- **THEN** the extraction pipeline SHALL receive the custom group registry and extract components using those groups
+
+#### Scenario: Transforms resolve for custom instance
+- **WHEN** a custom system instance includes custom transforms (e.g., `elevation`, `fluid`) in its prop definitions
+- **THEN** `.serialize().transforms` SHALL include those transforms and the plugin SHALL resolve their placeholders
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Theme augmentation for custom instance type safety
+**Reason:** With T as a first-class generic on the builder chain, scale resolution flows from the system's `.withTokens()` phase. No `declare module` augmentation is needed.
+**Migration:** Remove `declare module '@animus-ui/core' { interface Theme extends ... }` from consumer code. Theme types flow automatically from `.withTokens()`.
+
+### Requirement: Custom getExtractConfig export
+**Reason:** Replaced by `.serialize()` on the SystemInstance. The system knows how to serialize itself — no standalone utility needed.
+**Migration:** Replace `export const getExtractConfig = () => serializeExtractConfig(ds)` with `ds.serialize()` (called by the plugin automatically).

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Prop definitions support scale resolution
+Prop definitions with a `scale` property SHALL resolve values from the system's token type `T` instead of the global `Theme` interface. `ScaleValue<Config, T>` SHALL check `Config['scale'] extends keyof T` first, then fall through to inline MapScale/ArrayScale, then to raw CSS property values. The CompatTheme fallback chain SHALL NOT exist in the system package.
+
+#### Scenario: String value resolved from theme scale
+- **WHEN** a prop has `scale: 'colors'` and T defines `colors: { primary: string; secondary: string }`
+- **THEN** `ScaleValue<Config, T>` SHALL resolve to `'primary' | 'secondary' | PropertyValues<Config>`
+
+#### Scenario: Value not in scale passes through
+- **WHEN** a consumer passes `color="rebeccapurple"` (a raw CSS value not in the theme)
+- **THEN** the value SHALL be accepted as a valid CSS property value (no type error)
+
+#### Scenario: Scale not in T falls through to CSS values
+- **WHEN** a prop has `scale: 'sizes'` but T does not define a `sizes` key
+- **THEN** `ScaleValue<Config, T>` SHALL fall through to raw CSS property values (no CompatTheme fallback)
+
+### Requirement: Prop definitions support transform functions
+Transform functions on prop definitions SHALL remain unchanged. The system package SHALL use the same `TransformFn` and `NamedTransform` types. Transforms SHALL NOT be executed by the builder chain — they are an extraction pipeline concern.
+
+#### Scenario: NamedTransform is serializable
+- **WHEN** a prop has `transform: createTransform('size', fn)`
+- **THEN** `ds.serialize()` SHALL extract the transform by name for the plugin's post-processing step
+
+#### Scenario: Bare function still works
+- **WHEN** a prop has `transform: (val) => ...` without `createTransform`
+- **THEN** the builder chain SHALL accept it, but `.serialize()` SHALL skip it (unnamed transforms cannot be dispatched by the extraction pipeline)
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: CompatTheme fallback in ScaleValue
+**Reason:** CompatTheme was a leaky abstraction from the Emotion era. With T as a first-class generic, scale resolution goes directly through `T[scale]`. If T doesn't have a scale, the type falls through to CSS property values — no hidden defaults.
+**Migration:** Consumers must define all scales in their token definition (`.withTokens()`). Scales previously provided by CompatTheme (space, fontSizes, lineHeights, etc.) must be explicitly included in the theme.
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: ThemeProps parameterized by T
+`ThemeProps<Props, T>` SHALL replace `ThemeProps<Props>`. The `theme` property SHALL be typed as `T` instead of `AbstractTheme`.
+
+#### Scenario: Theme prop carries T
+- **WHEN** a component's props include theme access
+- **THEN** `props.theme` SHALL be typed as `T`, not `AbstractTheme` (no `[key: string]: any` escape hatch)
+
+### Requirement: ParserProps parameterized by T
+`ParserProps<Config, T>` SHALL thread T through to `Scale<Config, T>` → `ScaleValue<Config, T>` for each prop in the config.
+
+#### Scenario: Parser props resolve scales from T
+- **WHEN** a parser is created for a config with `{ bg: { property: 'backgroundColor', scale: 'colors' } }`
+- **THEN** the parser's props type SHALL include `bg?: ResponsiveProp<keyof T['colors'] | CSSPropertyValue>`

+
+### Requirement: Concentric builder with sequential generic inference
+The system builder SHALL provide a fluent API with callback-isolated phases: `.withTokens()` and `.withProperties()`.

+
+#### Scenario: Token phase captures T
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.withTokens(t => t.colors({ primary: '#4f46e5', secondary: '#7c3aed' }).build())`
+- **THEN** T SHALL include `{ colors: { primary: string; secondary: string } }` and subsequent phases SHALL have access to `T`
+
+#### Scenario: Property phase captures PropRegistry and GroupRegistry
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.withProperties(p => p.addGroup('surface', { color, border }).addGroup('text', { typography }).build())`
+- **THEN** PropRegistry SHALL be the union of all prop definitions across groups, and GroupRegistry SHALL map group names to their prop keys
+
+#### Scenario: Phases are lexically isolated
+- **WHEN** inside the `.withTokens()` callback
+- **THEN** only ThemeBuilder methods SHALL be available (not `.addGroup()` or `.build()` from the system level)
+
+### Requirement: Token phase reuses ThemeBuilder
+The `.withTokens()` callback SHALL receive a fresh ThemeBuilder instance from `@animus-ui/theming`. The callback chains ThemeBuilder methods and returns the `.build()` result.
+
+#### Scenario: ThemeBuilder methods available in callback
+- **WHEN** consumer writes `.withTokens(t => t.breakpoints({...}).colors({...}).space([...]).colorModes('light', {...}).build())`
+- **THEN** all existing ThemeBuilder methods SHALL work unchanged
+
+#### Scenario: Pre-built theme accepted
+- **WHEN** consumer has an existing theme object and writes `.withTokens(() => existingTheme)`
+- **THEN** the system SHALL accept the pre-built theme and infer T from its type
+
+### Requirement: Property builder accumulates groups
+The `.withProperties()` callback SHALL receive a PropertyBuilder instance with `.addGroup(name, props)` method. Each `.addGroup()` call SHALL accumulate into PropRegistry and GroupRegistry generics.
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple groups registered
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `p.addGroup('surface', { color, border }).addGroup('text', { typography })`
+- **THEN** PropRegistry SHALL contain all props from color, border, and typography, and GroupRegistry SHALL map `surface → ['color', 'borderColor', ...]` and `text → ['fontFamily', 'fontSize', ...]`
+
+#### Scenario: Property builder terminal
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.build()` on the PropertyBuilder
+- **THEN** the accumulated PropRegistry and GroupRegistry SHALL be captured and returned to the SystemBuilder
+
+### Requirement: SystemInstance provides builder chain entry
+The `.build()` terminal on SystemBuilder SHALL return a SystemInstance that exposes the Animus builder chain methods directly (`.styles()`, `.variant()`, etc.) with all generics pre-filled from the system definition.
+
+#### Scenario: Component creation from system instance
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `ds.styles({ bg: 'primary' }).groups(['surface']).asElement('div')`

+- **WHEN** consumer accesses `ds.tokens`
+- **THEN** the value SHALL be the same object returned by the ThemeBuilder's `.build()` in the `.withTokens()` callback

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Plugin factory function
+The plugin factory SHALL accept a `system` option pointing to the module that exports the SystemInstance. This replaces `configPath` and `themePath` as separate options.
+
+#### Scenario: System instance path
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL load that module via a single bun subprocess to obtain tokens, prop config, group registry, and transforms
+
+#### Scenario: Default configuration
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract()` with no options
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL auto-detect the system module by searching for a file exporting a SystemInstance (same heuristic as current config/theme auto-detection)
+
+### Requirement: Theme evaluation at build start
+Theme evaluation SHALL be replaced by system loading. The plugin SHALL load the system module once at `buildStart`, call `.serialize()`, and hold the result in memory for the duration of the build.
+
+#### Scenario: System loaded at build start
+- **WHEN** the Vite build starts
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL run one bun subprocess that imports the system module and returns `ds.serialize()` — containing tokens, propConfig, groupRegistry, and transforms
+
+#### Scenario: Transforms held in memory
+- **WHEN** the system is loaded at build start
+- **THEN** the transform registry SHALL be built from `serialize().transforms` and held in closure — no separate subprocess for transform resolution
+
+### Requirement: Transform post-processing
+Transform post-processing SHALL use the in-memory transform registry from the system's serialized config instead of running a separate bun subprocess.
+
+#### Scenario: Post-process from in-memory registry
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `__TRANSFORM__[size](0.5)`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL resolve it using the transform function from `serialize().transforms['size']` — no subprocess
+
+#### Scenario: Post-process custom transform
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `__TRANSFORM__[elevation](3)`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL resolve it using `serialize().transforms['elevation']` from the system's serialized config
+
+### Requirement: CSS-only HMR in dev mode
+HMR geological reset detection SHALL check the system file (single file) instead of separate config and theme files.
+
+#### Scenario: System file change triggers geological reset
+- **WHEN** the system definition file (the `system` option path) changes during dev
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL trigger a full geological reset: reload the system via subprocess, rebuild all caches
+
+#### Scenario: Component file change uses cached system
+- **WHEN** a non-system file changes during dev
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL use the cached system config (tokens, propConfig, groupRegistry, transforms) — no subprocess
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Prop config serialization
+**Reason:** Replaced by system serialization. The plugin no longer independently serializes prop config from a separate config module — it receives pre-serialized config from `ds.serialize()`.
+**Migration:** Use `system` plugin option instead of `configPath`. The system instance handles its own serialization.
+
+### Requirement: Transform registry built from config
+**Reason:** Subsumed by system serialization. Transforms come from `ds.serialize().transforms` instead of being independently extracted from a config module.
+**Migration:** Transforms are automatically collected from prop definitions during system serialization.

+## 1. Package Scaffolding
+
+- [x] 1.1 Create `packages/system/` with package.json (`@animus-ui/system`), tsconfig, tsdown config. Dependencies: `@animus-ui/theming` (for ThemeBuilder). No Emotion.
+- [x] 1.2 Add `@animus-ui/system` to workspace, verify `bun install` resolves it
+- [x] 1.3 Add build target to the build DAG (system builds after theming, before vite-plugin)
+
+## 2. Type System (T-First)
+
+- [x] 2.1 Create `src/types/theme.ts` — export `BaseTheme` (from core or redefined). No `AbstractTheme`, no `Theme` augmentable interface, no `CompatTheme`.
+- [x] 2.2 Create `src/types/config.ts` — `Prop`, `ScaleValue<Config, T>`, `Scale<Config, T>`, `CSSProps<Props, System, T>`, `CSSPropMap`, `ParserProps<Config, T>`, `Parser<Config, T>`, `SystemProps`. All parameterized by T. No CompatTheme fallback branch.
+- [x] 2.3 Create `src/types/props.ts` — `ThemeProps<Props, T>`, `ResponsiveProp<V>`, `MediaQueryMap`, `MediaQueryArray`, `AbstractProps`. `theme` typed as `T` not `AbstractTheme`.
+- [x] 2.4 Copy shared types: `src/types/shared.ts` (CSSObject, NarrowPrimitive), `src/types/scales.ts` (MapScale, ArrayScale), `src/types/utils.ts`, `src/types/properties.ts`
+- [x] 2.5 Spike: verify ScaleValue<Config, T> with showcase's complex theme (30 tokens, 6 scales, color modes). Check TypeScript doesn't hit instantiation depth limits.
+
+## 3. Prop Groups and Transforms
+
+- [x] 3.1 Copy prop group definitions into `src/groups/` — all 13 groups as individual files. Export from `src/groups/index.ts`.
+- [x] 3.2 Copy transform system — `src/transforms/createTransform.ts`, `src/transforms/size.ts`, `src/transforms/border.ts`, `src/transforms/grid.ts`
+- [x] 3.3 Copy scale utilities — `src/scales/createScale.ts`, `src/scales/lookupScaleValue.ts`
+- [x] 3.4 Update all internal imports to reference system package types (T-parameterized versions)
+
+## 4. Builder Chain (T-Threaded)
+
+- [x] 4.1 Create `src/Animus.ts` — 6 builder classes with `T extends BaseTheme` as first generic. Signatures: `Animus<T, PR, GR, BP>` → `AnimusWithBase<T, PR, GR, BP, BS>` → ... → `AnimusWithAll<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, V, S, AG, CP>`
+- [x] 4.2 Terminal methods (`.asElement()`, `.asComponent()`, `.build()`) produce runtime-shim-compatible output, NOT Emotion styled components. Use `createComponent` from `@animus-ui/runtime`.
+- [x] 4.3 Create `src/AnimusExtended.ts` — extension system with T as first generic (9 generics total). Same flexible ordering, merge semantics.
+- [x] 4.4 Replace `lodash.merge` in AnimusExtended with a focused deep-merge utility (~20 lines)
+- [x] 4.5 Wire `.extend()` on terminal components to produce `AnimusExtended<T, ...>` carrying the same T
+- [x] 4.6 Verify: builder chain with T produces correct autocomplete for scale-resolved props
+
+## 5. System Builder (Concentric)
+
+- [x] 5.1 Create `src/SystemBuilder.ts` — `createSystem()` returns a SystemBuilder. `.withTokens(cb)` accepts a callback receiving a ThemeBuilder, returns `SystemBuilder<T>`. `.withProperties(cb)` accepts a callback receiving a PropertyBuilder, returns `SystemBuilder<T, PropReg, GroupReg>`.
+- [x] 5.2 Create `src/PropertyBuilder.ts` — `.addGroup(name, props)` accumulates PropRegistry and GroupRegistry generics. `.build()` returns the accumulated config.
+- [x] 5.3 SystemBuilder `.build()` terminal — constructs and returns a SystemInstance that extends Animus (inherits builder chain methods) and exposes `.serialize()` and `.tokens`
+- [x] 5.4 Implement `.serialize()` — walks all groups, extracts named transforms into a registry, returns `{ tokens, propConfig, groupRegistry, transforms }`
+- [x] 5.5 Export `createSystem` from package entry point (`src/index.ts`). Re-export groups, transforms, createTransform, type utilities.
+
+## 6. Plugin Integration
+
+- [x] 6.1 Add `system` option to `animusExtract()` plugin options (alongside existing `configPath`/`themePath` for backwards compat during transition)
+- [x] 6.2 Implement `loadSystem()` — single bun subprocess that imports the system module and calls `.serialize()`
+- [x] 6.3 When `system` option is provided: use `loadSystem()` instead of `loadConfig()` + `loadTheme()`. Build transform registry from `serialize().transforms` in-process.
+- [x] 6.4 Geological reset: when the system file changes during HMR, trigger full reload via `loadSystem()` (replaces separate config/theme file checks)
+- [ ] 6.5 Auto-detection: when no `system` option provided, search for a module exporting a SystemInstance (fallback to existing config/theme detection)
+
+## 7. Showcase Migration

+## Why
+
+The system package's CSS object types (`.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()`) accepted any value for any property — `fontSize: 567` compiled without error because the type chain from tokens through the builder classes used `AbstractParser`, which resolved to `Record<string, any>`. This defeated the purpose of the finite style machine: the configuration space was declared finite at runtime but infinite at compile time.
+
+The root cause: the generic `T` (theme type) threaded through the 8-deep class hierarchy never connected to the CSS object constraint types. `CSSProps<Props, SystemProps<AbstractParser>>` discarded all scale information because `AbstractParser` has no knowledge of the theme.
+
+Attempts to thread `T` through to the CSS constraints via `ThemedSystemProps<PropRegistry, T>` or `ThemedCSSProps<Props, PropRegistry, T>` hit TypeScript's complexity ceiling (`TS2590: Expression produces a union type that is too complex to represent`) because the full prop registry (~60 props) × scale resolution creates a combinatorial explosion at the class definition level.
+
+The solution: an augmentable `Theme` interface (following the Emotion/styled-components pattern). Instead of threading a generic through the hierarchy, CSS constraints reference a fixed `Theme` interface that consumers extend via `declare module`. This makes scale resolution a constant-time type operation (no generics to expand) while preserving full type safety.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- New `Theme` augmentable interface in `packages/system/src/types/theme.ts` — empty by default, consumers extend via `declare module '@animus-ui/system' { interface Theme extends MyTheme {} }`
+- New `ThemedScaleValue<Config>` and `ThemedScale<Config>` types that use the fixed `Theme` for scale resolution instead of generic `T`
+- New `ThemedCSSProps<Props, Config>` and `ThemedCSSPropMap<Props, Config>` types — per-key scale constraint using `ThemedScale`
+- `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()` method parameter types updated from `CSSProps<Props, SystemProps<AbstractParser>>` to `ThemedCSSProps<Props, PropRegistry>` in both `Animus.ts` and `AnimusExtended.ts`
+- Class generic bounds remain unchanged (`AbstractParser`) — only method parameters are themed
+- `Theme` exported from `@animus-ui/system` package index
+- Showcase augments `Theme` with `ShowcaseTheme` in `ds.ts`
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `theme-module-augmentation`: Augmentable `Theme` interface enables compile-time scale constraints in CSS objects. Consumers get type errors for values outside their declared scales.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `builder-chain`: `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()` now constrain CSS values to theme scales when `Theme` is augmented.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **System package** (`packages/system/`): New types in `types/config.ts` and `types/theme.ts`. Method signatures in `Animus.ts` and `AnimusExtended.ts` updated. No runtime changes. No breaking API changes (existing code compiles — constraints only tighten when `Theme` is augmented).
+- **Showcase** (`packages/showcase/`): `ds.ts` adds `declare module '@animus-ui/system' { interface Theme extends ShowcaseTheme {} }` — one line, full constraint.

+## Context
+
+System (`@animus-ui/system`) is the zero-runtime, static-extraction authoring surface. Its only dependency on theming is a single import: `createTheme` used in `SystemBuilder.withTokens()`. Theming (`@animus-ui/theming`) depends on core (`@animus-ui/core`), which depends on `@emotion/react`, `@emotion/styled`, and `@emotion/is-prop-valid`. This creates a transitive dependency chain that pulls Emotion into system's consumer install.
+
+Theming's source is 4 files (~450 lines) that are entirely Emotion-free. The only imports from core are 3 trivial type definitions (`AbstractTheme`, `CSSObject`, `BaseTheme`).
+
+`SystemBuilder.withTokens()` is unnecessary ceremony — in practice consumers already build tokens separately and pass them through unchanged. Module augmentation on `Theme` handles type drilling. SystemBuilder doesn't need tokens at all.
+
+The plugin currently loads tokens via `ds.serialize().tokens`. This coupling is artificial — the tokens are already available as a separate module export.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Eliminate system's transitive dependency on `@emotion/*`
+- Move theming source into system as internal modules with locally-defined types
+- Remove `withTokens()` from SystemBuilder entirely — no `T` generic, no `#tokens`, no tokens in `serialize()`
+- Update plugin subprocess to load tokens from module exports
+- Re-export `createTheme`, `ThemeBuilder`, and associated utilities from `@animus-ui/system`
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Deleting the theming package (remains for legacy core/Emotion path)
+- AnimusProvider or distribution story (change 2)
+- Renaming runtime to `@animus-ui/react` (change 2)
+- Removing lodash dependency from moved files
+- Changing ThemeBuilder API or behavior
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Move files vs. rewrite
+**Decision**: Move theming's 4 source files into `system/src/theme/` with import updates.
+
+**Rationale**: The code works. Rewriting working code to produce identical output is waste.
+
+### 2. Type localization
+**Decision**: Add `AbstractTheme` and `CSSObject` to `system/src/types/theme.ts`.
+
+**Alternatives**: Shared `@animus-ui/types` package (adds boundary), import types from core (still pulls Emotion into dep tree).
+
+**Rationale**: These types are trivial (1-3 lines each). Duplicating is cheaper than a package boundary.
+
+### 3. SystemBuilder loses tokens entirely
+**Decision**: Remove `withTokens()`, the `T` generic, `#tokens` field, `ThemeBuilderInput` type, and `tokens` from `serialize()`.
+
+**Rationale**: Module augmentation handles type drilling. Theme construction is a consumer concern. The only reason tokens were in SystemBuilder was to pass them to the plugin via `serialize()` — but the plugin can load them directly from module exports.
+
+### 4. Plugin loads tokens from module exports
+**Decision**: Subprocess template adds `const tokens = m.tokens || m.theme;` alongside the existing `ds` lookup. Tokens passed to `evaluateThemeObject()` directly.
+
+**Rationale**: The consumer's system module already exports `tokens` (showcase does `export const tokens = createTheme(...).build()`). No new convention needed — just stop routing through serialize.
+
+### 5. Theming package preserved
+**Decision**: Leave theming in the monorepo, unchanged.
+
+**Rationale**: Legacy Emotion path may still be needed. Deleting is a separate decision.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Plugin subprocess assumes `tokens` export exists** → If missing, `evaluateThemeObject` receives undefined and variable CSS is empty. Plugin should warn: "No tokens export found — CSS variables will not be generated." Same severity as current behavior when serialize returns empty tokens.
+
+**[Risk] Showcase or other packages import from `@animus-ui/theming` directly** → Verified: showcase's `ds.ts` line 23 imports `createTheme` from `@animus-ui/theming`. Must update to `@animus-ui/system`.
+
+**[Risk] Stale CLAUDE.md / spec references to withTokens** → Update showcase CLAUDE.md, system-builder spec. Grep for `withTokens` across repo to catch all references.

+## Why
+
+The system package (zero-runtime static extraction path) transitively depends on Emotion through the chain `system -> theming -> core -> @emotion/*`. This contaminates the dependency graph — consumers of `@animus-ui/system` pull in `@emotion/react`, `@emotion/styled`, and `@emotion/is-prop-valid` despite never using them. Theming's entire source is 4 Emotion-free files (~450 lines of pure TypeScript + lodash) that import only 3 trivial type definitions from core. The package boundary between theming and system is cosmetic — it predates the extraction architecture and no longer serves a purpose.
+
+Additionally, `SystemBuilder.withTokens()` is unnecessary. Theme construction is a consumer concern — consumers build their theme separately via `createTheme()`, augment the `Theme` interface via module declaration, and export the tokens value. Module augmentation handles type drilling; SystemBuilder never needs the tokens or the `T` generic. The plugin loads tokens directly from module exports.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Absorb theming source into system**: Move theming's 4 source files (`createTheme.ts`, `serializeTokens.ts`, `flattenScale.ts`, `types.ts`) into `system/src/theme/`
+- **Localize type definitions**: Add `AbstractTheme` and `CSSObject` to system's type surface (system already owns `BaseTheme` and `Breakpoints`)
+- **Remove `withTokens()` from SystemBuilder**: Theme construction is not SystemBuilder's concern. The `T` generic, `#tokens` field, and `ThemeBuilderInput` type are removed. `serialize()` drops the `tokens` field.
+- **Plugin loads tokens from module exports**: The subprocess looks for `m.tokens || m.theme` alongside `m.ds || m.default || m.system`. Tokens and system config travel as separate exports.
+- **Re-export from system index**: `createTheme`, `ThemeBuilder`, `flattenScale`, `serializeTokens`, and associated types exported from `@animus-ui/system` (aligns with publishing surface plan)
+- **Remove dependency**: Drop `@animus-ui/theming` from system's `package.json`
+- **Theming package preserved**: The theming package itself is NOT deleted — it remains for the legacy core/Emotion path.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `theming-internalization`: Absorbing theming utilities (ThemeBuilder, createTheme, serializeTokens, flattenScale) into the system package as internal modules with locally-defined types
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `system-builder`: Remove `withTokens()` method, `T` generic, and `#tokens` field. SystemBuilder owns properties, groups, and global styles only. `serialize()` drops the `tokens` field.
+- `system-serialization`: `serialize()` return type loses the `tokens` field.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Plugin subprocess loads tokens from a separate module export (`m.tokens || m.theme`) instead of from `ds.serialize().tokens`.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **system/package.json**: Removes `@animus-ui/theming` dependency. Zero transitive path to `@emotion/*`.
+- **system/src/theme/**: New directory containing 4 moved files with updated imports.
+- **system/src/types/theme.ts**: Gains `AbstractTheme` and `CSSObject` type definitions.
+- **system/src/index.ts**: Gains re-exports for theming utilities.
+- **SystemBuilder**: `withTokens()` removed. `T` generic removed. `serialize()` returns `{ propConfig, groupRegistry, transforms, globalStyles }` — no `tokens`.
+- **Consumer API**: **BREAKING** — `createSystem().withTokens(cb)` removed. Consumers build and export tokens separately.
+- **Showcase `ds.ts`**: Removes `.withTokens(() => tokens)` from the chain. Exports `tokens` as a named export. Imports `createTheme` from `@animus-ui/system` instead of `@animus-ui/theming`.
+- **Vite plugin**: Subprocess updated to load `tokens` from module exports. `evaluateThemeObject` call unchanged.
+
+## Progression
+
+This is change 1 of 2. Change 2 (`animus-provider`) will add `AnimusProvider` to `@animus-ui/react` as a typed import-anchor for distributed design system consumption.

+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Token phase reuses ThemeBuilder
+**Reason**: Module augmentation on the `Theme` interface handles type drilling. Theme construction is a consumer concern, not a SystemBuilder concern. `withTokens()` was unnecessary ceremony — consumers already build tokens separately and pass them through unchanged.
+**Migration**: Remove `.withTokens(() => tokens)` from the chain. Build tokens separately via `createTheme()`, export as a named `tokens` export, augment `Theme` via module declaration. The plugin loads tokens directly from the module export.
+
+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Concentric builder with sequential generic inference
+The system builder SHALL provide a fluent API with callback-isolated phases: `.withProperties()` and `.withGlobalStyles()`. The `.withProperties()` phase SHALL capture its generics via TypeScript's sequential method-chain inference. The terminal `.build()` SHALL return a `SystemInstance<PropRegistry, GroupRegistry>`.
+
+#### Scenario: Full system definition
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createSystem().withProperties(p => p.addGroup('surface', { color, border }).build()).withGlobalStyles({...}).build()`
+- **THEN** the return type SHALL be `SystemInstance<PropReg, GroupReg>` where PropReg/GroupReg are inferred from the property builder callback return
+
+#### Scenario: Property phase captures PropRegistry and GroupRegistry
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.withProperties(p => p.addGroup('surface', { color, border }).addGroup('text', { typography }).build())`
+- **THEN** PropRegistry SHALL be the union of all prop definitions across groups, and GroupRegistry SHALL map group names to their prop keys
+
+#### Scenario: No token phase
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createSystem()`
+- **THEN** the returned builder SHALL NOT have a `.withTokens()` method. Theme construction is handled separately by the consumer.
+
+### Requirement: SystemInstance provides builder chain entry
+The `.build()` terminal on SystemBuilder SHALL return a SystemInstance that exposes the Animus builder chain methods directly (`.styles()`, `.variant()`, etc.) with PropRegistry and GroupRegistry pre-filled from the system definition. Scale resolution uses the augmented `Theme` interface.
+
+#### Scenario: Component creation from system instance
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `ds.styles({ bg: 'primary' }).groups(['surface']).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** `bg` SHALL autocomplete with values from the augmented `Theme['colors']` and `groups` SHALL only accept keys from `GroupRegistry`
+
+#### Scenario: Scale resolution via module augmentation
+- **WHEN** the consumer has augmented `Theme` with `{ colors: { primary: string; secondary: string } }` and a prop definition has `scale: 'colors'`
+- **THEN** autocomplete for that prop SHALL show `'primary' | 'secondary'` plus raw CSS values
+
+### Requirement: Serialization excludes tokens
+The `serialize()` method on SystemInstance SHALL return `{ propConfig, groupRegistry, transforms, globalStyles }`. It SHALL NOT include a `tokens` field. The plugin loads tokens independently from the module's named exports.
+
+#### Scenario: serialize() return shape
+- **WHEN** `ds.serialize()` is called
+- **THEN** the return SHALL contain `propConfig` (JSON string), `groupRegistry` (JSON string), `transforms` (record of named transforms), and optionally `globalStyles` — but NOT `tokens`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: System package owns ThemeBuilder and token utilities
+The system package SHALL contain internal implementations of `ThemeBuilder`, `createTheme`, `serializeTokens`, and `flattenScale` in `system/src/theme/`. These modules SHALL have zero imports from `@animus-ui/core` or `@animus-ui/theming`.

+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT contain `@animus-ui/theming` or `@animus-ui/core` as a dependency, devDependency, or peerDependency
+
+#### Scenario: No transitive Emotion dependency
+- **WHEN** a consumer installs `@animus-ui/system`
+- **THEN** the resolved dependency tree SHALL NOT include `@emotion/react`, `@emotion/styled`, or `@emotion/is-prop-valid`
+
+### Requirement: System package defines AbstractTheme and CSSObject locally
+The system package SHALL define `AbstractTheme` and `CSSObject` types in its own type surface (`system/src/types/theme.ts`). These SHALL be structurally identical to the definitions in `@animus-ui/core`.
+
+#### Scenario: AbstractTheme definition
+- **WHEN** `AbstractTheme` is imported from `@animus-ui/system`
+- **THEN** it SHALL be typed as `BaseTheme & { readonly [key: string]: any }`
+
+#### Scenario: CSSObject definition
+- **WHEN** `CSSObject` is imported from `@animus-ui/system`
+- **THEN** it SHALL be typed as `{ [key: string]: string | number | CSSObject | undefined }`
+
+#### Scenario: Structural compatibility with core types
+- **WHEN** a value of type `CSSObject` from `@animus-ui/system` is assigned to a variable typed as `CSSObject` from `@animus-ui/core`
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL accept the assignment without error (structural typing)
+
+### Requirement: System re-exports theming utilities
+The system package index SHALL re-export `createTheme`, `ThemeBuilder`, `flattenScale`, `serializeTokens`, and all associated type utilities (`KeyAsVariable`, `SanitizeKey`, `LiteralPaths`, `MergeTheme`, `Merge`, `PrivateThemeKeys`, `ColorModeConfig`, `FindPath`, `Path`, `PathValue`).
+
+#### Scenario: createTheme available from system
+- **WHEN** consumer writes `import { createTheme } from '@animus-ui/system'`
+- **THEN** the import SHALL resolve successfully and `createTheme` SHALL return a `ThemeBuilder` instance
+
+#### Scenario: ThemeBuilder available from system
+- **WHEN** consumer writes `import { ThemeBuilder } from '@animus-ui/system'`
+- **THEN** the import SHALL resolve successfully as the class type
+
+#### Scenario: Type utilities available from system
+- **WHEN** consumer writes `import type { KeyAsVariable, LiteralPaths, MergeTheme } from '@animus-ui/system'`
+- **THEN** all type imports SHALL resolve successfully
+
+### Requirement: ThemeBuilder API preserved
+The internalized ThemeBuilder SHALL expose the identical fluent API as the theming package version: `.addColors()`, `.addColorModes()`, `.addScale()`, `.updateScale()`, `.createScaleVariables()`, `.build()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Full theme construction chain
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme(base).addColors({...}).addColorModes('light', {...}).addScale('space', fn).build()`
+- **THEN** the returned theme object SHALL contain `colors` (CSS var references), `_variables` (CSS var definitions), `_tokens` (raw values), and the added scale
+
+#### Scenario: Color mode variable generation
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColorModes('light', { light: { primary: 'navy' }, dark: { primary: 'white' } })`
+- **THEN** the theme SHALL contain `_variables.mode` with CSS var definitions for the initial mode, and `_tokens.modes` with raw values for all modes
+
+#### Scenario: Scale flattening
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addScale('space', () => ({ sm: 4, md: 8, lg: { _: 16, xl: 24 } }))`
+- **THEN** the theme SHALL contain `{ space: { sm: 4, md: 8, lg: 16, 'lg-xl': 24 } }` (underscore boundary, dash separator)

+## Context
+
+The Rust extraction crate already generates detailed diagnostics:
+- **Bail reasons**: `chain_walker.rs` sets `bail_reason: Option<String>` when a chain can't be extracted
+- **Skip warnings**: `lib.rs` collects per-property skip warnings (variable reference, function call, template literal)
+
+But these are thrown away at two levels:
+1. `project_analyzer.rs:288` — `_skip_warnings` is discarded (underscore prefix)
+2. The Vite plugin never reads bail/skip data from the manifest
+
+Meanwhile, elimination warnings from the reconciler ARE always-on (line 780 of plugin). The pattern for surfacing diagnostics already exists — we just need to extend it to bail and skip warnings.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Bail and skip warnings visible in console by default (not verbose-gated)
+- Structured diagnostic data in manifest (machine-readable)
+- Same UX pattern as existing elimination warnings
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Making diagnostics suppressible via plugin option (Vite's `logLevel` handles this)
+- Changing bail/skip behavior — just surfacing what already exists
+- Source locations / line numbers (would require threading span info through manifest — future enhancement)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Manifest gains `diagnostics` array
+
+```json
+{
+  "components": { ... },
+  "report": { ... },
+  "diagnostics": [
+    { "file": "src/Button.tsx", "component": "Button", "kind": "skip", "message": "property 'color': variable reference (non-static)" },
+    { "file": "src/Dynamic.tsx", "component": "DynamicBox", "kind": "bail", "message": "function call in style object" }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Kinds: `bail` (entire chain not extracted), `skip` (individual property skipped, component still partially extracted).
+
+### 2. Plugin prints diagnostics same as elimination warnings
+
+```typescript
+const diagnostics = storedManifest.diagnostics || [];
+for (const d of diagnostics) {
+  if (d.kind === 'bail') {
+    warn(`⚠ ${d.component} not extracted: ${d.message}`);
+  } else if (d.kind === 'skip') {
+    warn(`⚠ ${d.component}: skipped ${d.message}`);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Always-on. Uses existing `warn()` helper. Printed during `buildStart` alongside elimination warnings.
+
+### 3. Rust changes are minimal
+
+In `project_analyzer.rs`: stop discarding skip warnings. Collect them alongside bail reasons into a `Vec<Diagnostic>` struct. Serialize into the manifest JSON.
+
+The per-file `extract()` function in `lib.rs` already returns errors (including skip warnings). The project analyzer just needs to not throw them away.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**Warning fatigue** → A large codebase with many dynamic expressions could produce hundreds of skip warnings. → Mitigated: consumers can set Vite `logLevel: 'error'` to suppress. Could also add a summary line: `"N properties skipped across M components"` instead of per-property detail (verbose mode gets the detail).
+
+**Manifest size increase** → Each diagnostic is a small JSON object. 100 diagnostics adds ~5KB to the manifest. → Negligible.

+## Why
+
+When extraction bails on a chain (non-static expression, unknown method) or skips individual properties (variable reference, function call), the diagnostics are generated by the Rust crate but never reach the consumer. The project analyzer discards skip warnings (`_skip_warnings`). The Vite plugin never reads bail reasons from the manifest. A new user whose component silently loses styles gets zero console output unless they enable `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1` — which they don't know exists.
+
+Elimination warnings (reconciliation pruning) ARE always-on. But extraction bail and per-property skip warnings are invisible. These are the most common "why is my style missing?" diagnostics.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Surface bail and skip warnings by default**: The project analyzer SHALL include per-component bail reasons and per-property skip warnings in the manifest. The Vite plugin SHALL print these as warnings (not gated by verbose mode), matching the existing elimination warning pattern.
+- **Structured diagnostics in manifest**: The manifest gains a `diagnostics` array alongside the existing `report` object. Each diagnostic includes the component binding name, the file path, the kind (bail/skip), and the message.
+- **No new CLI flags**: These warnings use the existing `warn()` helper (goes through Vite logger). Suppressible via Vite's `logLevel` config if consumers find them noisy.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `extraction-diagnostics`: Bail and skip warnings surfaced from Rust crate through manifest to Vite plugin console output.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: Project analyzer includes skip warnings and bail reasons in manifest output.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Plugin reads and prints extraction diagnostics from manifest (always-on, not verbose-gated).
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/extract/src/project_analyzer.rs`**: Stop discarding `_skip_warnings`. Include bail reasons and skip warnings in manifest JSON.
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`**: Read `diagnostics` from manifest, print via `warn()` (same pattern as elimination warnings).
+- **No runtime changes**: Diagnostics are build-time only.
+- **Console output**: Users will see warnings like `[animus] ⚠ Button: skipped property 'color' (variable reference)` and `[animus] ⚠ DynamicBox: bail (function call in style object)`.

+## Why
+
+The current `.states()` conflates two distinct concepts: composable boolean behavior toggles (`column`, `centered`, `loading`) and semantic DOM states (`disabled`, `hidden`, `open`). Boolean toggles are lightweight prop-driven style overrides that compose freely. Semantic DOM states are selector-driven — they target the presence of HTML attributes or data attributes on the element. Conflating them means:
+
+1. Semantic states like `disabled` get swallowed by the runtime (prop consumed, never forwarded to DOM), breaking accessibility and headless UI interop
+2. No system-level vocabulary for targeting DOM state selectors (`[data-state="open"]`, `[disabled]`, `[aria-expanded]`) — each component re-invents selector strings
+
+## Design Principles
+
+### The cascade contract is inviolable
+Each chain method maps to a predictable `@layer`. Later layers always override earlier ones. No exceptions. No sovereignty. No `!important` by any name. The four-layer model holds:
+
+```
+@layer base, variants, states, system
+```
+
+System props override states. States override variants. The consumer always knows what wins by looking at the layer order. If a consumer sets `bg="red"` on a component with state styling, system wins. They chose that. The system told them what would happen.
+
+### States are composable behavior toggles
+States are independent boolean props that compose: `<Stack column centered gap={16} />`. They are NOT variants (which are mutually exclusive within a prop). They are NOT semantic DOM states (which should be targeted via selectors). States create typed boolean props, apply classes from `@layer states`, and are consumed by the runtime (not forwarded to DOM).
+
+### Semantic DOM states are selectors, not props
+`disabled`, `hidden`, `open`, `checked` — these are DOM concerns. They belong in `.styles()` via selector syntax (`'&[disabled]': { ... }`), not in `.states()`. The styling fires when the attribute is present on the element. The component author writes the selector; the consumer (or Radix, or native HTML) manages the attribute.
+
+## What Changes
+
+### Selector registry (`.withSelectors()`)
+A new system builder method that registers selector shorthands — a vocabulary for targeting DOM state selectors from any style position:
+
+```tsx
+createSystem()
+  .withTokens(...)
+  .withProperties(...)
+  .withSelectors({
+    open: '[data-state="open"]',
+    closed: '[data-state="closed"]',
+    disabled: '[disabled]',
+    active: '[data-active]',
+  })
+  .build();
+```
+
+Registered selectors become usable as shorthand in `.styles()`, `.variant()`, and `.states()`:
+
+```tsx
+ds.styles({
+  bg: 'surface',
+  '&:open': { maxHeight: '500px' },     // → &[data-state="open"]
+  '&:disabled': { opacity: 0.4 },       // → &[disabled]
+})
+```
+
+The registry:
+- Is analogous to custom transforms (system-level vocabulary for selectors, like `fluid` is for values)
+- Syncs usage across components — register `data-state="open"` once, target it consistently everywhere
+- Is resolved at extraction time — the Rust pipeline or Vite plugin expands shorthands to full selectors
+- Does NOT create props, does NOT affect cascade, does NOT add layers
+
+### State prop forwarding (runtime)
+The runtime should forward state props to the DOM when they match valid HTML attributes. A small map of forwardable attributes (`disabled`, `hidden`, `checked`, `open`, `required`, `readOnly`) plus `data-*` and `aria-*` prefix matching. This is independent of the selector registry — it's a runtime concern for semantic correctness.
+
+### No cascade changes
+The four-layer model stays: `@layer base, variants, states, system`. No new layers. No sovereignty. All layers overridable by the next.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `selector-registry`: System builder method for registering selector shorthands. Resolved at extraction time. Usable in any style position via `&:shorthand` syntax.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `extraction-runtime-shim`: Runtime gains forwarding logic for state props that match valid HTML attributes or data/aria prefixes.
+- `system-builder`: Gains `.withSelectors()` method in the builder chain.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **System package** (`packages/system/`): `SystemBuilder` gains `.withSelectors()`. `SerializedConfig` gains `selectors` field. Selector map passed through to extraction pipeline.
+- **Runtime** (`packages/runtime/`): `createComponent` gains forwarding logic for semantic state props.
+- **Rust crate** (`packages/extract/`): Selector shorthand expansion during CSS generation. Registered selectors resolved to full attribute selectors.
+- **Vite plugin** (`packages/vite-plugin/`): Passes selector registry from serialized config to extraction pipeline.
+
+## Design Notes
+
+### Why not a sovereign assertion layer?
+A sovereign layer violates the cascade contract. Every layer must be overridable by the next. No exceptions. Sovereignty is `!important` by another name.
+
+### Why not collapse states into boolean variants?
+States compose independently (`<Stack column centered />`). Variants are mutually exclusive within a prop (`size="sm" | "lg"`). Different concept, different ergonomics. States also have their own cascade position (`@layer states` after `@layer variants`), giving component authors a predictable layering for behavior toggles vs named variations.
+
+### Why a registry instead of ad-hoc selectors?
+`'&[data-state="open"]'` works today in `.styles()`. The registry adds vocabulary — a single source of truth for what selectors mean in your system. Like tokens name colors and transforms name value functions, registered selectors name DOM states. Consistent naming, no typo risk, discoverable via autocomplete.

+### Comparison to Tailwind data attribute variants
+Tailwind's `data-[state=open]:bg-red-500` is ad-hoc — the selector is inline in the utility class. Animus's registry is system-level — you define the vocabulary once, use it everywhere with a shorthand. The registry is the closed vocabulary; Tailwind is the open one.

+## Context
+
+The extract package (`packages/extract/`) is a Rust crate compiled to a Node.js native addon via NAPI-RS. Currently only builds locally on the developer's darwin-arm64 machine. The CI workflow (`ci.yaml`) runs `bun run build` (TS only) on `ubuntu-latest` — it never touches the Rust crate. The package.json declares 5 NAPI targets but only 1 has ever been compiled.
+
+The auto-generated `index.js` binary loader already handles platform detection and scoped npm package fallback. The `napi pre-publish` tooling is already a devDependency. The infrastructure for cross-platform distribution exists — the CI just doesn't use it.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Rust crate builds on all supported platforms in CI
+- `bun run verify:full` runs on linux in CI, proving extraction works cross-platform
+- NAPI targets trimmed to platforms that matter in 2026
+- Foundation for future npm publishing (scoped platform packages)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- npm publishing — not yet, the package is private
+- WASM fallback — adds complexity for a niche use case
+- musl builds — glibc covers the CI and Docker environments we care about
+- Windows native — WSL2 users get the linux binary
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Three targets, not five
+
+Trim `napi.targets` in package.json to:
+- `aarch64-apple-darwin` — dev machines (Apple Silicon)
+- `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu` — CI, Docker, Linux workstations
+- `aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu` — ARM CI runners (GitHub Actions arm64), Graviton
+
+Drop `x86_64-apple-darwin` (Intel Mac discontinued 2022, negligible in 2026) and `x86_64-pc-windows-msvc` (frontend devs on Windows use WSL2 → linux-x64-gnu binary).
+
+### 2. GitHub Actions matrix with native runners
+
+Use native runners for each target — no cross-compilation:
+- `macos-14` (or `macos-latest`) — Apple Silicon runner, builds `aarch64-apple-darwin`
+- `ubuntu-latest` — x86_64, builds `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`
+- `ubuntu-24.04-arm` — ARM64 runner, builds `aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu`
+
+**Why not cross-compilation?** Cross-compiling Rust with NAPI is possible but finicky (linking against target Node.js headers, platform-specific C libs). Native runners are simpler, more reliable, and GitHub provides ARM runners. Build time is ~2-3 minutes per target, acceptable for CI.
+
+### 3. Separate build and verify jobs
+
+```
+build-extract (matrix: 3 platforms)
+  → upload .node artifact per platform
+
+verify (needs: build-extract)
+  → download linux-x64 artifact
+  → bun install + build:ts
+  → bun run verify:full (includes showcase build)
+```
+
+The build matrix runs in parallel. The verify job runs on `ubuntu-latest` using the linux-x64-gnu binary, proving the full pipeline works end-to-end. The darwin and linux-arm64 binaries are built but not verified in CI (they're the same Rust code, just different targets).
+
+### 4. Rust toolchain via `dtolnay/rust-toolchain`
+
+Standard action for CI Rust builds. Pin to `stable`. Cargo caching via `Swatinem/rust-cache` to avoid recompiling dependencies on every run (~60% build time reduction).
+
+### 5. Binary artifacts uploaded per job, not committed
+
+`.node` binaries stay in `.gitignore`. CI builds upload them as job artifacts. The verify job downloads what it needs. For future npm publishing, a release workflow would download all artifacts and run `napi pre-publish`.
+
+### 6. Keep existing TS-only check job
+
+The current `check` job (lint, typecheck, build:ts, test) stays as-is — it's fast and doesn't need the Rust crate. The new `verify` job is the full-pipeline proof that includes extraction.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**ARM runner availability** → GitHub Actions arm64 runners (`ubuntu-24.04-arm`) are generally available but newer. If availability is unreliable, linux-arm64 can be dropped from CI matrix without blocking the rest. → Mitigation: make arm64 build optional (`continue-on-error: true`) initially.
+
+**CI time increase** → Adds ~3-5 minutes total (Rust builds run in parallel). → Acceptable for a full-pipeline verification.
+
+**Cargo.lock in monorepo** → The lock file is in `packages/extract/`. CI needs to ensure it's used (`--locked` flag) for reproducible builds. → Already committed, just need to pass the flag.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- **Should linux-arm64 be required or optional in CI?** GitHub ARM runners are GA but if they're flaky, blocking PRs on them is counterproductive. Recommend starting as optional.
+- **When to add npm publishing workflow?** Not now — the package is private. When it goes public, add a release job that runs `napi pre-publish -t npm` and publishes scoped platform packages.

+## Why
+
+The Rust extraction crate only builds on the development machine (darwin-arm64). CI runs on Ubuntu but never compiles the crate, so linux breakages are invisible until someone tries to use the package outside macOS. Any contributor on Linux, any Docker-based dev environment, and any CI pipeline that runs `verify:full` needs a working `.node` binary for their platform.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Trim NAPI targets to 2026 reality**: Remove `x86_64-apple-darwin` (Intel Mac is dead) and `x86_64-pc-windows-msvc` (frontend devs on Windows use WSL2 → linux binary). Keep `aarch64-apple-darwin`, `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`, `aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu`.
+- **GitHub Actions CI workflow for Rust builds**: Matrix build across the three targets. macOS arm64 runner for darwin, ubuntu runners for linux. Produces `.node` binaries as artifacts.
+- **CI runs `verify:full`** on linux after building the crate, proving the full pipeline (extraction + showcase) works cross-platform.
+- **Optional: `napi pre-publish` npm package scaffolding** for future npm distribution via scoped platform packages (`@animus-ui/extract-linux-x64-gnu`, etc.). Not publishing yet — just the infrastructure.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `napi-cross-platform-ci`: GitHub Actions workflow for building the Rust crate across target platforms, uploading binary artifacts, and running full verification on linux.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: NAPI target list trimmed from 5 to 3 platforms. No behavioral change to extraction functions.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/extract/package.json`**: `napi.targets` trimmed to 3 entries.
+- **`.github/workflows/`**: New or modified CI workflow with Rust build matrix.
+- **CI runtime**: Adds ~2-3 minutes for Rust compilation on each platform runner.
+- **No API changes**: Extraction functions, NAPI signatures, and binary loader are unchanged.
+- **No runtime changes**: The auto-generated `index.js` loader already handles all platforms.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: CI builds Rust crate on all supported platforms
+The CI pipeline SHALL build the Rust extraction crate on each supported NAPI target using native GitHub Actions runners. Each platform build SHALL produce a `.node` binary artifact.
+
+#### Scenario: Matrix build across platforms
+- **WHEN** a push to main or a pull request triggers CI
+- **THEN** the pipeline SHALL run parallel Rust builds on `macos-14` (aarch64-apple-darwin), `ubuntu-latest` (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu), and `ubuntu-24.04-arm` (aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu)
+
+#### Scenario: Each build produces a binary artifact
+- **WHEN** a platform build completes successfully
+- **THEN** the job SHALL upload the `.node` binary as a GitHub Actions artifact named by platform (e.g., `animus-extract.linux-x64-gnu.node`)
+
+#### Scenario: Builds use locked dependencies
+- **WHEN** the Rust crate builds in CI
+- **THEN** the build SHALL use `--locked` to ensure the committed `Cargo.lock` is respected
+
+#### Scenario: Cargo dependencies are cached
+- **WHEN** the Rust build runs in CI
+- **THEN** Cargo registry and target directories SHALL be cached between runs to reduce build time
+
+### Requirement: Full pipeline verification on linux
+The CI pipeline SHALL run `bun run verify:full` on linux after the Rust crate is built, proving that extraction, showcase build, and all tests pass on a non-development platform.
+
+#### Scenario: Verify job uses linux binary
+- **WHEN** the linux-x64 Rust build completes
+- **THEN** a verify job SHALL download the linux `.node` binary, install dependencies, and run `bun run verify:full`
+
+#### Scenario: Verify job proves end-to-end extraction
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify:full` runs in CI
+- **THEN** it SHALL build all TS packages, run tests (including type tests), run biome checks, and build the showcase — all using the CI-built extraction binary
+
+### Requirement: ARM linux build is optional
+The `aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu` build SHALL be configured with `continue-on-error: true` so that ARM runner unavailability does not block PRs.
+
+#### Scenario: ARM build failure does not block CI
+- **WHEN** the ARM linux build fails due to runner unavailability
+- **THEN** the overall CI pipeline SHALL still pass (the ARM job is advisory, not required)
+
+### Requirement: Platform package scaffolding for npm publishing
+The CI pipeline SHALL include a release job (triggered manually or on tag) that uses `napi pre-publish -t npm` to generate scoped platform packages and publish them.
+
+#### Scenario: Release generates scoped packages
+- **WHEN** a release is triggered
+- **THEN** the pipeline SHALL download all platform `.node` artifacts and run `napi pre-publish -t npm` to create `@animus-ui/extract-darwin-arm64`, `@animus-ui/extract-linux-x64-gnu`, and `@animus-ui/extract-linux-arm64-gnu` packages
+
+#### Scenario: Platform packages are optionalDependencies
+- **WHEN** the root `@animus-ui/extract` package is published
+- **THEN** its `optionalDependencies` SHALL list all scoped platform packages so that npm/bun installs only the binary for the current platform
+
+#### Scenario: Release job requires all platform builds
+- **WHEN** a release is triggered
+- **THEN** the release job SHALL depend on successful completion of ALL platform builds (not just linux-x64)

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: NAPI function signature
+The Rust crate SHALL export THREE NAPI functions:
+1. `extract(source, filename, theme_json, config_json, group_registry_json) -> ExtractionResult` — per-file extraction (preserved for backward compatibility and testing)
+2. `analyze_project(file_entries_json, theme_json, config_json, group_registry_json) -> String` — project-level analysis returning JSON manifest
+3. `transform_file(source, filename, manifest_json) -> TransformResult` — per-file transformation using manifest
+
+The crate SHALL be compiled for three NAPI targets: `aarch64-apple-darwin`, `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`, `aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu`.
+
+#### Scenario: Backward-compatible extract
+- **WHEN** `extract()` is called with a file containing only primary chains (no extensions)
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce the same result as Arc 2 — CSS, transformed code, extractable flag, errors
+
+#### Scenario: analyze_project with extensions
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` is called with files containing extension chains
+- **THEN** the returned manifest JSON SHALL contain all components (primary and extended), resolved provenance, merged chain configs, and complete CSS
+
+#### Scenario: transform_file uses manifest
+- **WHEN** `transform_file()` is called with a file and a manifest
+- **THEN** it SHALL look up the file's components in the manifest and apply source replacements using the manifest's precomputed class names and configs
+
+#### Scenario: Chain with groups is extractable
+- **WHEN** `extract()` is called with source containing `animus.styles({...}).groups({ space: true }).asElement('div')` and JSX elements using system props
+- **THEN** the result SHALL have `extractable: true`, `css` containing both component layer CSS and utility CSS in `@layer system`, and `code` containing `createComponent()` with system prop class map
+
+#### Scenario: Chain with props is extractable
+- **WHEN** `extract()` is called with source containing `animus.styles({...}).props({ logoSize: {...} }).asElement('h1')` and JSX elements using custom props
+- **THEN** the result SHALL have `extractable: true`, `css` containing utility CSS in `@layer custom`
+
+#### Scenario: Binary loads on supported platforms
+- **WHEN** the `@animus-ui/extract` package is installed on `darwin-arm64`, `linux-x64`, or `linux-arm64`
+- **THEN** the binary loader SHALL find and load the platform-appropriate `.node` binary

+## Why
+
+Dev-mode extraction (just shipped) re-runs full `analyzeProject` on every file save. This works for small projects (~30 files, <200ms) but will degrade at scale. Two approaches could reduce HMR latency to near-zero regardless of project size.
+
+This is a **spike proposal** — documenting the options and questions to investigate, not committing to an implementation path yet.
+
+## Approach B: Incremental Rust Analysis (`patchFile`)
+
+New NAPI function: `patchFile(manifest, filePath, newSource, theme, config, groupRegistry) → patchedManifest`
+
+**The idea:** Re-parse only the changed file, diff against existing manifest entries, patch just the affected CSS rules. Everything else (import graph, topo order, JSX usage, reconciliation) is cached in the manifest.
+
+**What it buys:** ~20ms HMR for style-only edits (vs ~150ms full re-analysis). O(1) in project size.
+
+**Open questions to spike:**
+- Can the manifest store enough intermediate state to make patching possible without re-running import resolution?
+- How to detect "structural change" (new chain, new variant) vs "value change" (style edit) — the boundary between patch and escalate-to-full?
+- Cross-file extension chains: if parent's styles change, child needs update. Can we trace this from the manifest's provenance map?
+- JSX usage changes in OTHER files: these can't be detected without scanning those files. Is this acceptable to skip in dev (no reconciliation anyway)?
+
+**Rust work estimate:** Moderate. New NAPI function, chain diffing logic, CSS string splicing. Reuses existing parsing/evaluation.
+
+## Approach C: Full Universe + Live CSS Rule Patching
+
+**The idea:** Two-track architecture. Dev skips reconciliation entirely, serves the FULL CSS universe (every variant, every state, every possible rule). On HMR, re-evaluate only the changed chains and patch individual CSS rules in the browser.
+
+**What it buys:** Sub-millisecond HMR. O(changed rules) not O(files). No React re-render for style-only changes.
+
+**The dev/prod split:**
+- **Prod:** `analyzeProject` → reconciliation → minified bundle (what ships)
+- **Dev:** `analyzeProject` (no reconcile) at startup → `extractChains` per-file on edit → live CSS rule patching
+
+**Open questions to spike:**
+- Does the `CSSStyleSheet` API support modifying rules inside `@layer` blocks? `@layer` is relatively new in CSSOM. If `CSSGroupingRule` traversal works for `@layer`, this is viable. If not, we need a different injection strategy (one `<style>` per component? inline rules without layers in dev?).
+- Can we skip `@layer` in dev entirely? Dev doesn't need cascade guarantees if all styles are present — specificity is handled by class name uniqueness. Removing layers simplifies CSS rule patching to flat rule replacement.
+- What's the right delivery mechanism for rule deltas? Options: custom Vite websocket message, custom HMR handler in the runtime shim, or a `__vite_plugin_animus` global that the runtime polls.
+- How does the browser runtime manage the selector→CSSRule index? On initial load, it needs to parse the full CSS and build the index. On rule addition (new component), it needs to insert into the right layer position.
+- Transform resolution for individual rules: currently transforms are resolved via bun subprocess on the full CSS string. Per-rule resolution would need an in-process transform registry instead.
+
+**New infrastructure needed:**
+1. Rust: `extractChains(file, source, theme, config, groupRegistry) → Vec<(selector, cssBody)>` — lightweight per-file extraction, no project analysis
+2. JS plugin: per-component CSS map (not concatenated string)
+3. Browser: CSS rule patching runtime (~1-2KB)
+4. Plugin↔Browser: delta delivery channel
+
+## Recommendation
+
+**Don't build either yet.** Approach A (full re-analysis) is fast enough for current use. When a project exceeds ~200 files and HMR latency becomes perceptible:
+
+1. **Spike first:** Write a minimal test to answer the `@layer` CSSOM question. If `CSSGroupingRule` traversal works, Approach C is viable and strictly superior.
+2. **If C is viable:** Build it. The two-track architecture (dev=full universe, prod=reconciled) is the cleanest long-term design.
+3. **If C is blocked by CSSOM limitations:** Fall back to B (incremental Rust). More complex but no browser-side innovation needed.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities (potential)
+- `incremental-extraction`: Per-file chain extraction without full project analysis
+- `live-css-patching`: Browser-side CSS rule replacement via CSSOM API
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/extract/src/`**: New NAPI function(s) for per-file extraction
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/`**: Per-component CSS storage, delta delivery
+- **`packages/runtime/src/`**: CSS rule patching runtime (Approach C only)
+- **Developer experience**: Sub-10ms HMR on any project size

+## Context
+
+`analyzeProject()` is called on every HMR file change. It re-parses all files via OXC, rebuilds the full import graph, resolves extension chains, scans JSX usage, reconciles dead variants/states, and generates ordered CSS.
+
+The Rust analysis phases break down roughly as:
+
+| Phase | Time (estimated) |
+|-------|-----------------|
+| OXC parse + chain walk + style eval (per-file) | ~1.5ms/file |
+| Import resolution + binding map | ~2ms |
+| Extension provenance + topo sort | ~1ms |
+| Extension merging | ~1ms |
+| JSX scanning (all files) | ~3ms |
+| Reconciliation | ~1ms |
+| CSS generation | ~1ms |
+
+Per-file parsing dominates on the Rust side. Cross-file phases are fast because they operate on pre-extracted data structures, not raw source.
+
+**Important: The total HMR wall-clock time (~60ms for 32 files) includes significant JS overhead** — JSON serialization of file entries, NAPI boundary crossing (string → Rust → string), transform resolution, and Vite module graph invalidation/reload. The Rust cache eliminates the Rust-side parsing cost but cannot address the JS orchestration cost. See Post-Implementation Assessment in proposal.md.
+
+Current `analyzeProject()` was stateless — every call received all files, processed everything, returned everything. This change adds a Rust-side persistent per-file cache so unchanged files skip parsing.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Eliminate redundant OXC parsing of unchanged files on HMR (Rust-side optimization)
+- Keep Rust as the single source of truth for analysis — no JS-side manifest merging
+- Maintain identical prod build behavior (no caching, full reconciliation)
+- Verify cache correctness via canary tests (cached result matches full re-analysis)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Reducing JS-side overhead (NAPI serialization, Vite module graph ops) — architectural floor, separate concern
+- CSSOM-level patching (Level 3 incremental — future spike)
+- JS-side manifest merging from per-file `extract()` results (original proposal, rejected)
+- Incremental import resolution (cross-file phases are already fast)
+- Persistent on-disk cache (in-memory only, cleared on server restart)
+- Plugin-side selective module invalidation (see D6 retrospective)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### D1: Rust-side persistent state via module-level `Mutex`
+
+The Rust crate needs to maintain state between `analyzeProject()` calls. Two options considered:
+
+**Option A: `thread_local!` with `RefCell`** — Cache lives in thread-local storage. Zero synchronization. But if Bun's NAPI calls ever execute on a different thread (worker threads, internal scheduler), each thread gets an independent empty cache — silent full-parse behavior with no errors or warnings.
+
+**Option B: Module-level `Mutex<HashMap>`** — Cache behind a Mutex. Safe for any threading model. Lock overhead for 32-entry HashMap lookup is microseconds — negligible vs 57ms baseline.
+
+**Decision: Option B (`Mutex`).** The lock cost is immeasurable against the parse savings. Correctness across all NAPI runtimes (Node.js, Bun, Deno) is worth more than zero-cost synchronization that silently breaks under threading.
+
+```rust
+use std::sync::Mutex;
+use once_cell::sync::Lazy;
+
+static FILE_CACHE: Lazy<Mutex<HashMap<String, CachedFileResult>>> =
+    Lazy::new(|| Mutex::new(HashMap::new()));
+```
+
+### D2: Cache key is content hash, not file path
+
+Files are identified by `(path, content_hash)`. If the hash matches, the cached result is reused. If the hash differs or the file is new, it's re-parsed. If a cached file is absent from the input list, it's evicted.
+
+This means the plugin doesn't need to explicitly track "which files changed" — it passes all files with their hashes, and Rust determines staleness internally.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Plugin passes explicit `changed_files: string[]`. Rejected because it requires the plugin to track change state, which it already does via content hashes. Passing hashes is more declarative and idempotent.
+
+### D3: `FileEntry` gains an optional `hash` field
+
+```rust
+struct FileEntry {
+    path: String,
+    source: String,
+    hash: Option<String>,  // NEW: content hash from plugin
+}
+```
+
+When `hash` is `Some` and matches the cached entry for that path, the file's source is ignored and cached extraction results are used. When `hash` is `None`, the file is always re-parsed (backward compatible — existing callers without hashes get full analysis).
+
+### D4: CachedFileResult stores the full evaluation result, not just CSS
+
+The cache must store enough data to reconstruct the `evaluated` HashMap entry for unchanged files. The `evaluated` map is consumed by extension merging (reads parent entries), system_props population (mutates entries), and manifest generation. If cached files don't populate `evaluated`, extension chains break silently and system_props are missing from the manifest.
+
+```rust
+struct CachedFileResult {
+    hash: String,
+    module_info: FileModuleInfo,          // imports/exports for binding resolution
+    chains: Vec<ChainDescriptor>,         // extracted builder chains
+    eval_results: Vec<CachedEvalEntry>,   // full per-component evaluation results
+    jsx_usage: UsageScanResult,           // JSX prop/variant/state usage
+}
+
+struct CachedEvalEntry {
+    component_id: String,
+    component_css: ComponentCss,          // pre-merge styles (child's own)
+    replacement: ComponentReplacement,    // variant_config, state_names, system_props
+    active_props: Option<HashSet<String>>,
+    prop_config: Option<PropConfigMap>,
+}
+```
+
+On cache hit, each `CachedEvalEntry` is inserted into the `evaluated` HashMap so downstream phases see it identically to a freshly-processed entry. On cache miss (re-parsed file), the new evaluation results replace the cached entries.
+
+All fields use owned Rust types (`String`, `Vec`, `HashMap`). No references to OXC arena-allocated AST nodes. The arena drops after parsing; cached data survives independently.
+
+**Accumulated usage ledger:** The per-file `jsx_usage` stored in `CachedFileResult` IS the accumulated usage state. In dev mode, unchanged files' cached `jsx_usage` is merged with changed files' fresh `jsx_usage` via union to build the usage ledger. Geological resets clear `FILE_CACHE`, which clears all cached `jsx_usage` — the ledger resets to the fresh full-analysis state. No separate persistence mechanism needed.
+
+### D5: Dev-mode flag enables incremental JSX scanning and skips reconciliation
+
+```rust
+fn analyze(
+    files: Vec<FileEntry>,
+    theme: &Theme,
+    config: &Config,
+    // ...existing params...
+    dev_mode: bool,  // NEW
+) -> UniverseManifest
+```
+
+When `dev_mode` is true:
+- Phase 5b (JSX scanning): run ONLY on changed files (cache miss). Reuse cached `UsageScanResult` for unchanged files. Merge new scan results into accumulated usage ledger via union (additive only — never remove previously-seen values). This ensures new `<Box p={8}>` usages are detected while avoiding re-scanning all 32 files.
+- Skip Phase 5e (reconciliation) — saves ~1ms. No variants, states, components, or system prop utilities are pruned.
+- CSS generation uses all extracted components without pruning.
+
+When `dev_mode` is false (prod builds):
+- Full analysis unchanged — scan all files, reconcile, prune
+
+### D6: Early-exit via ComponentCss comparison (foundation only)
+
+`PartialEq` is derived on `ComponentCss` and nested types to enable structural comparison between cached and freshly-extracted results. This is a foundation for future per-component CSS patching (Level 3 incremental) but is NOT currently used for CSS regen gating. CSS generation always runs on the full ordered component list.
+
+The original design included "Layer 1 early-exit: if ComponentCss unchanged, skip CSS regen." In practice, CSS generation is fast (~1ms for 32 components) and operates on the full ordered list, so per-component skipping would add branch complexity for negligible savings. The `PartialEq` derives remain as infrastructure for future use.
+
+### D6b: Surgical invalidation — retrospective (shipped but reassessed)
+
+During implementation, a `structuralSignature()` function was added to the plugin to compare component replacement strings before and after analysis, excluding `systemProps` and `systemPropNames`. The intent: only re-transform definition files where the structural config (tag, className, variants, states) changed, not when system_props changed due to JSX edits in consumer files.
+
+**Assessment:** This optimization adds complexity (JSON.parse of every component config, prevReplacements map, set diffing) but did not measurably reduce total HMR latency. Vite's `invalidateModule()` is a cheap flag flip. The cost it was trying to avoid (re-running the transform hook on unchanged definition files) is bounded by the number of definition files and dominated by the overall HMR cycle time.
+
+**Status:** REMOVED. Replaced with simple string comparison (`replacement !== prevReplacement`). If a component's replacement string changed at all (including systemProps), its definition file is invalidated. Simpler, correct, no JSON parsing overhead. The "surgical" approach was solving the wrong problem — Vite's invalidateModule is a flag flip, so avoiding it has negligible benefit.
+
+### D7: NAPI interface — extend `analyzeProject()` signature
+
+**Option A: New parameter on existing function.**
+```rust
+#[napi]
+fn analyze_project(
+    file_entries_json: String,  // now includes hash field
+    // ...existing params...
+    dev_mode: Option<bool>,     // NEW, optional for backward compat
+) -> String
+```
+
+**Option B: New function `analyze_project_dev()`.**
+
+**Decision: Option A.** Adding an optional parameter is backward-compatible. Existing callers (canary tests, prod builds) pass `None` or omit it and get full analysis. Dev-mode callers pass `Some(true)`.
+
+The `file_entries_json` format changes from `[{path, source}]` to `[{path, source, hash?}]`. The `hash` field is optional — entries without it are always re-parsed.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Cache staleness on edge cases** → If a file's content hash collides (MD5 collision), stale cached data would be used. Mitigation: MD5 collisions are astronomically unlikely for source files. If paranoia warrants it, switch to xxhash (faster, better distribution). The plugin already uses MD5 for content-hash checks.
+
+**[Risk] Memory growth from only-grow dev strategy** → Dev CSS monotonically grows as new variant values and system prop classes are encountered. For a 32-file project this is negligible. For a 500-component monorepo, it could accumulate significantly over a long dev session. Mitigation: geological resets (theme/config change) clear the cache and do full analysis. Restarting the dev server also clears. The CSS isn't shipped — it's dev-only.
+
+**[Risk] Cache invalidation on Rust crate update** → If the extraction logic changes (style_evaluator, chain_walker), cached results from the old code could be incompatible. Mitigation: dev server restart clears the cache. NAPI binary replacement requires a server restart anyway.
+
+**[Risk] `PartialEq` derivation on ComponentCss** → If ComponentCss contains floating-point values or non-deterministic fields, equality comparison could give false negatives (unnecessary re-generation). Mitigation: ComponentCss contains only strings and string-keyed maps. No floats. Deterministic by construction.
+
+**[Trade-off] Cross-file phases still run on every HMR** → Import resolution, topo sort, and extension merging still execute on every change (~5ms). This is acceptable because: (a) they're fast, (b) caching them requires tracking the import graph for invalidation (complex), (c) they use cached FileModuleInfo so no re-parsing is needed.
+
+**[Critical detail] CachedFileResult stores PRE-MERGE ComponentCss** → The cache stores each file's OWN styles before extension merging. The merge phase runs every time in topo order, combining fresh or cached parent CSS with fresh or cached child CSS. This ensures extension chains are correct when a parent changes but children don't: the parent's fresh CSS is merged with the child's cached own-styles to produce the correct merged output. If we cached POST-MERGE CSS, a parent edit would silently produce stale merged results for unchanged children.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+### Q1: What is Vite's intrinsic HMR latency?
+
+The ~60ms total HMR time may include significant Vite-intrinsic overhead: file system watcher notification, module graph traversal, WebSocket push to browser, browser module re-request, React component re-render. This baseline was never measured independently.
+
+**To determine:** Temporarily disable the animus plugin, make a plain JSX edit (e.g., change a string literal), measure Vite's native HMR cycle time for the showcase project. If the baseline is already 40-50ms, then the plugin overhead is only 10-15ms (well within acceptable bounds, and the Rust cache already minimized our contribution).
+
+This distinction matters for future optimization decisions. If the floor is Vite's, there's nothing to optimize on our side. If Vite's baseline is 20ms and we're adding 40ms, there's NAPI serialization work worth doing.
+
+### Q2: Serialization cost at scale (code-split apps)
+
+Every HMR cycle iterates all tracked files to build the NAPI payload. For the 32-file showcase, this is negligible. For a code-split app with many routes, the total file count could be 200+. The current architecture sends `{ path, source: '', hash }` for unchanged files (~80 bytes/entry) — small per-entry but O(total-files) per cycle.
+
+Alternative architecture: send only changed file(s) + a path list for eviction. Rust uses its cache for everything not in the changed set. This would make NAPI payload O(changed-files) instead of O(total-files). However, it requires Rust to track the full file set internally rather than deriving it from the input. Deferred as a future optimization — needs real-world scale testing to justify the architectural change.
+
+## Code Removal Provenance
+
+Removals made during post-implementation cleanup. Each entry traces what was removed, why it existed, whether any spec references it, and whether the removal is safe.
+
+### Plugin: `structuralSignature()` function
+
+- **What:** Function that JSON.parsed a `createComponent()` config string, deleted `systemProps`/`systemPropNames`, and returned the remaining JSON as a comparison key.
+- **Why it existed:** Attempted to exclude system prop changes from module invalidation diffing, so that changing JSX usage in a consumer file wouldn't re-transform definition files. Added during incremental-hmr-v2 implementation.
+- **Spec references:** Only in this change's proposal and design (D6b). No main spec references. Delta spec for vite-extraction-plugin does NOT mention it.
+- **Replacement:** Simple string comparison (`replacement !== prevReplacement`). If replacement changed at all, invalidate.
+- **Safe:** Yes. Builds pass. The function was added in this change and never synced to main specs.
+
+### Plugin: `structuralSignature`-based conditional in invalidation loop
+
+- **What:** The invalidation check `structuralSignature(new) !== structuralSignature(old)` was an additional gate beyond `new !== old`.
+- **Why it existed:** To prevent re-transforming definition files when ONLY systemProps changed (from JSX consumer edits).
+- **Replacement:** Plain `newReplacement !== oldReplacement` check. More conservative (more invalidation) but correct and simpler.
+- **Safe:** Yes. Over-invalidation is a correctness improvement (ensures stale transforms can't persist).
+
+### Rust: `generate_css_ordered()` function (css_generator.rs)
+
+- **What:** Generated concatenated CSS string with topological ordering. ~50 lines.
+- **Why it existed:** Original CSS generation entry point before `CssSheets` was introduced. Superseded by `generate_css_sheets_ordered()` in the `static-adopted-split` change.
+- **Spec references:** Referenced in ARCHIVED changes only: `arc-4-usage-reconciliation` (tasks.md:33, design.md:30) and `static-adopted-split` (design.md:49). NOT in any main spec. The main `structured-css-sheets` spec describes the sheets API, not this function.
+- **Safe:** Yes. Only called by `generate_css_from_slice()` (also removed) and imported (unused) in project_analyzer.rs. `generate_css_sheets_ordered()` is the active replacement. Builds pass.
+
+### Rust: `generate_css_from_slice()` function (css_generator.rs)
+
+- **What:** Internal helper that called `generate_sheets_from_slice()` and concatenated the result. ~20 lines.
+- **Why it existed:** Called only by `generate_css_ordered()`. Part of the pre-sheets string-based CSS generation path.
+- **Spec references:** None.
+- **Safe:** Yes. Only caller was `generate_css_ordered()` (also removed). Builds pass.
+
+### Rust: `Breakpoints` struct (theme_resolver.rs)
+
+- **What:** Serde-deserializable struct with optional `xs/sm/md/lg/xl` u32 fields.
+- **Why it existed:** Early breakpoint representation, likely from Arc 1-2. Never constructed in production code — `BreakpointMap` (a `HashMap<String, u32>` in css_generator.rs) is used instead.
+- **Spec references:** The `system-builder` spec mentions a TypeScript `Breakpoints` type — this is the TS interface in `packages/system/src/types/theme.ts`, NOT the Rust struct. No Rust spec references this struct.
+- **Safe:** Yes. Never instantiated. Builds pass.
+
+### Rust: `TERMINAL_METHODS` constant (chain_walker.rs)
+
+- **What:** `const TERMINAL_METHODS: &[&str] = &["asElement", "asComponent"]`
+- **Why it existed:** Likely an early constant for terminal method matching. The chain walker uses inline string comparisons (`"asElement"`, `"asComponent"`) directly in the match logic, not this constant.
+- **Spec references:** The `rust-extraction-pipeline` spec describes terminal recognition behavior but does not reference this constant by name.
+- **Safe:** Yes. Never referenced. Builds pass.
+
+### Rust: Unused imports (6 items in project_analyzer.rs)
+
+| Import | Reason unused |
+|--------|--------------|
+| `merge_chain_configs` | Function exists in chain_merger.rs and is used by its own tests, but project_analyzer.rs never calls it. Extension merging uses inline logic. |
+| `generate_css_ordered` | Superseded by `generate_css_sheets_ordered`. Import was stale. |
+| `resolve_styles` | Function exists in theme_resolver.rs. Project analyzer uses theme data passed as parameters, not direct resolve calls. |
+| `parse_object_from_source` | Function in lib.rs for per-file extraction. Project analyzer uses `process_chain` instead. |
+| `parse_variant_from_source` | Same pattern — lib.rs helper not used in project analysis. |
+
+- **Spec references:** None reference these imports. The functions themselves still exist and are used by their own modules.
+- **Safe:** Yes. Import-only cleanup. Functions not deleted. Builds pass.
+
+### Rust: Unused imports (3 items in other files)
+
+| Import | File | Reason |
+|--------|------|--------|
+| `parse_states_arg` | lib.rs | Function exists in style_evaluator.rs but is never called from lib.rs. States are parsed via `process_chain` flow. Referenced in archived `per-property-bail` task but that work is done. |
+| `Argument` | style_evaluator.rs | OXC AST type, no longer needed after refactoring. |
+| `VariantCss` (top-level) | reconciler.rs | Test module re-imports it independently via `use crate::css_generator::{ComponentCss, VariantCss}`. Top-level import was only needed by tests via `super::*` but tests have their own explicit import. |
+
+- **Spec references:** None.
+- **Safe:** Yes. Import-only cleanup. Builds pass.
+
+### Items NOT removed (assessed but kept)
+
+| Item | File | Why kept |
+|------|------|----------|
+| `parse_states_arg()` function | style_evaluator.rs | Dead in production but function body exists with no callers. Could be useful for future per-file extraction. Low cost to keep. |
+| `BAIL_METHODS` constant (empty) | chain_walker.rs | Intentionally empty with explanatory comment. Documents that extend is no longer a universal bail. |
+| `span` field on `ComponentReplacement` | transform_emitter.rs | Cargo warns "never read" but kept for future source mapping support. |
+| `is_default` field on `ImportInfo`/`ExportInfo` | import_resolver.rs | Cargo warns "never read" but kept for potential future API surface (re-export analysis). |
+| `merge_chain_configs()` function | chain_merger.rs | Used by its own test suite. The import in project_analyzer was dead, not the function. |
+| `PartialEq` derives on ComponentCss | css_generator.rs | Foundation for Layer 1 early-exit (not yet implemented). Used in canary test assertions. |
+
+### Spec sync impact
+
+**No main spec changes needed.** All removed items were either:
+- Implementation artifacts never referenced in specs (constants, internal helpers)
+- Superseded by newer functions already described in specs (`generate_css_sheets_ordered` replaces `generate_css_ordered`)
+- Plugin-side optimizations from this change that were never synced (surgical invalidation)
+
+The delta specs for this change (`incremental-analysis-cache`, `dev-mode-only-grow`, `project-analyzer`, `vite-extraction-plugin`) remain accurate — none describe the removed items.

+## Why
+
+HMR re-analysis re-parses every file on every change via `analyzeProject()`. By caching per-file extraction results in Rust and only re-parsing changed files, the Rust-side analysis drops from tens of milliseconds to ~2-3ms for single-file changes. Combined with skipping reconciliation in dev (only-grow strategy), the Rust crate does minimal work on incremental HMR.
+
+This supersedes the original `incremental-hmr` proposal, which assumed `extract()` per-file results could be merged in JS. Deep exploration of the Rust crate revealed that `extract()` and `analyzeProject()` are fundamentally different — `extract()` does zero cross-file work (no import resolution, no extension provenance, no topo sort). The revised architecture keeps all analysis in Rust with a persistent per-file cache.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Rust-side per-file cache** in `project_analyzer.rs`: persistent `HashMap<String, CachedFileResult>` storing the full per-file evaluation result — ChainDescriptors, FileModuleInfo, ComponentCss, ComponentReplacement, active props, prop config, and JSX usage scan results — between `analyzeProject()` calls. Unchanged files skip OXC parsing entirely. Cached entries populate the `evaluated` working map so all downstream phases (extension merging, system_props population, CSS generation) operate correctly on cached data.
+- **Content-hash integration**: plugin passes per-file content hashes to Rust so the crate knows which files to re-parse vs reuse from cache.
+- **Dev-mode only-grow strategy**: incremental JSX scanning (scan only changed files, reuse cached scan results for unchanged files, merge via union) and skip reconciliation in dev. Never prune variants, states, system prop utilities, or components during dev. New system prop values are detected on the changed file and added to the CSS. All values ever encountered for a component are retained. Prod builds are unchanged (full analysis + reconciliation).
+- **New NAPI parameter**: `analyzeProject()` gains optional `dev_mode` flag. `clearAnalysisCache()` added for geological resets.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `incremental-analysis-cache`: Rust-side persistent cache for per-file extraction results, dirty-file detection via content hashes, selective re-parsing
+- `dev-mode-only-grow`: Dev-mode analysis that skips reconciliation and JSX usage scanning, retaining all variants/states/utilities monotonically
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `project-analyzer`: analyze_project gains caching behavior and dev-mode flag
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: handleHotUpdate passes content hashes and dev-mode flag to Rust
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Rust crate** (`packages/extract/`): `project_analyzer.rs` (primary), `lib.rs` (NAPI signature). No changes to css_generator, chain_walker, style_evaluator, transform_emitter, import_resolver, or reconciler.
+- **Vite plugin** (`packages/vite-plugin/`): `handleHotUpdate` passes content hashes from existing `fileCache`. Adds `dev_mode` flag to `runAnalysis()` calls.
+- **Tests**: New canary tests verifying cached analysis matches full re-analysis. Extension chain correctness with cached parents. Dev-mode reconciliation skip. Existing canary tests unaffected (they call `analyzeProject()` without caching).
+- **Prod builds**: Completely unchanged. No caching, full analysis + reconciliation.
+- **OXC arena safety**: Cached data uses owned Rust types (String, Vec, HashMap), not AST nodes. Arenas drop normally after parsing.
+
+## Post-Implementation Assessment
+
+### What worked
+- **Rust cache is the core win.** 31/32 files skip OXC re-parsing. Rust-side analysis completes in ~2-3ms with cache hits. The cache design (pre-merge storage, owned types, content-hash keying) is correct and the canary tests confirm it.
+- **Dev-mode only-grow is correct behavior.** Skipping reconciliation saves work and avoids dev-mode style flicker from variant/state pruning. Monotonic CSS growth is the right model for dev.
+- **Geological reset is robust.** `clearAnalysisCache()` + full source re-send produces fresh results.
+
+### What didn't deliver
+- **Total HMR latency is ~60ms, not <10ms.** The original 57ms benchmark was total pipeline time (plugin → NAPI → Rust → NAPI → plugin → transforms → module invalidation). Rust analysis was always a subset of that. The JS overhead — JSON serialization of all file entries, NAPI boundary crossing, transform resolution, Vite module graph operations — creates a ~55-60ms floor that the Rust cache cannot address.
+- **Surgical invalidation (`structuralSignature`) was premature.** Diffing component replacements to exclude system_props changes from module invalidation adds complexity (JSON.parse every config, track previous state, set diffing) but didn't reduce the 60ms total. Vite's module invalidation itself is cheap (flag flip); the cost is in the analysis + serialization pipeline that runs regardless.
+- **Layer 1 early-exit not realized.** `PartialEq` was derived on ComponentCss (foundation for detecting style-unchanged re-parses) but no CSS regen gating was implemented. CSS generation always runs on the full component set. This is foundation for future per-component CSS patching but provides no current benefit beyond diagnostics.
+
+### Serialization cost at scale
+Every HMR cycle sends ALL tracked files to Rust (empty source for unchanged, full source for changed). For the 32-file showcase this is negligible, but for a code-split app with 200+ files, the O(total-files) iteration, JSON serialization, serde deserialization, and cross-file phase traversal will grow. Future optimization: send only changed files + path list for eviction, letting Rust use its cache exclusively for unchanged entries.
+
+### Plugin-side optimizations shipped but not specified
+Several plugin behaviors were developed during implementation to fix real bugs, not from the original design:
+- `globalThis.__animus_component_sheet__` for idempotent adopted stylesheet (prevents duplication on HMR re-evaluation)
+- `bridgeInjected` flag reset in `runAnalysis()` (ensures bridge injection after page reload)
+- Transform subprocess restricted to prod; dev uses in-process `resolveTransformPlaceholders` (eliminates ~50ms subprocess overhead in dev)
+- `buildFileEntriesFromCache` sends empty source for unchanged files (reduces serialization payload)
+
+These are implementation details of the plugin's HMR pipeline, not cache architecture. They should be documented in the plugin's CLAUDE.md, not specified as capabilities.
+
+### Recommendation for spec sync
+- **Sync:** `incremental-analysis-cache`, `dev-mode-only-grow`, `project-analyzer` (NAPI changes) — these are correct, stable, permanent architecture.
+- **Sync with revision:** `vite-extraction-plugin` — remove surgical invalidation from spec, keep content-hash passing and dev_mode flag.
+- **Do not sync:** Surgical invalidation behavior. Consider removing `structuralSignature` and `prevReplacements` tracking from plugin in a future cleanup.
+- **Future consideration:** Restructure NAPI interface to accept only changed files + path list (reduce O(total-files) cost). This would be a separate change.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Dev-mode incremental JSX scanning and no reconciliation
+
+When `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: true`, it SHALL perform JSX scanning ONLY on changed files (files whose cache entry was invalidated by a hash mismatch). Cached JSX usage results from unchanged files SHALL be reused. The reconciliation phase (Phase 5e) SHALL be skipped entirely — no variants, states, components, or system prop utilities are pruned.
+
+New system prop values, variant usages, and state activations discovered in changed files SHALL be merged into the accumulated usage ledger via union (additive only). Values previously in the ledger from prior scans SHALL NOT be removed even if the changed file no longer references them.
+
+#### Scenario: New system prop detected in changed file
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: true` and a changed file adds `<Box p={8}>` for the first time
+- **THEN** the utility class for `p={8}` is generated and added to the CSS output
+
+#### Scenario: Unchanged files not re-scanned
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: true` and 31 of 32 files are unchanged
+- **THEN** JSX scanning runs only on the 1 changed file; cached scan results are reused for the other 31
+
+#### Scenario: Dev-mode retains all variants
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: true` and a component has 5 variant options but only 2 are used in JSX
+- **THEN** all 5 variant options appear in the generated CSS (no elimination)
+
+#### Scenario: Dev-mode retains all states
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: true` and a component has 3 states but none are used in JSX
+- **THEN** all 3 states appear in the generated CSS (no elimination)
+
+#### Scenario: Dev-mode retains unused components
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: true` and a component is extracted but never rendered in JSX
+- **THEN** the component's CSS is retained in the output (no elimination)
+
+#### Scenario: Prod-mode unchanged
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: false` or `dev_mode` is not provided
+- **THEN** full JSX scanning (all files) and reconciliation proceed as before (unchanged behavior)
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: Monotonic CSS growth in dev
+
+During a dev session, CSS output SHALL only grow. Values encountered for variants, states, and system prop utilities SHALL accumulate across HMR cycles. A value once included in CSS SHALL NOT be removed until a geological reset or server restart.
+
+#### Scenario: New variant value persists
+- **WHEN** a developer adds a new variant value to a component and triggers HMR
+- **THEN** the new variant's CSS is added to the output, and previously-generated CSS for that component is preserved
+
+#### Scenario: Removed variant value persists in dev
+- **WHEN** a developer removes a variant option from source code and triggers HMR
+- **THEN** the removed variant's CSS remains in dev output until a geological reset or server restart
+
+#### Scenario: Geological reset restores accurate CSS
+- **WHEN** a geological reset occurs (theme/config/system change)
+- **THEN** the cache is cleared and full analysis produces CSS reflecting only the current source state (monotonic accumulation resets)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Per-file extraction cache
+
+The Rust crate SHALL maintain a persistent in-memory cache of per-file extraction results between `analyzeProject()` calls. The cache key SHALL be the tuple `(file_path, content_hash)`. When a file's content hash matches its cached entry, the cached extraction results (FileModuleInfo, ChainDescriptors, ComponentCss) SHALL be reused without re-parsing via OXC.
+
+#### Scenario: Unchanged file reuses cache
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with a file entry whose `hash` field matches the cached hash for that path
+- **THEN** the file's source is NOT re-parsed via OXC, and cached FileModuleInfo, ChainDescriptors, and ComponentCss are used for subsequent analysis phases
+
+#### Scenario: Changed file invalidates cache
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with a file entry whose `hash` field differs from the cached hash (or no cache exists for that path)
+- **THEN** the file is re-parsed via OXC, new extraction results replace the cached entry, and the new results are used for subsequent analysis phases
+
+#### Scenario: Removed file evicts cache
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called without a file entry that existed in a previous call's cache
+- **THEN** the cached entry for that file path is evicted
+
+#### Scenario: No hash provided (backward compatibility)
+- **WHEN** a file entry has no `hash` field (or `hash` is null)
+- **THEN** the file is always re-parsed, and no cache lookup or update occurs for that entry
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: Cached entries populate the evaluated working map
+
+When a file's extraction results are served from cache, the cached evaluation entries (ComponentCss, ComponentReplacement, active props, prop config) SHALL be inserted into the `evaluated` working HashMap used by downstream phases. Extension merging, system_props population, and manifest generation SHALL operate on cached entries identically to freshly-processed entries.
+
+#### Scenario: Extension chain with cached parent
+- **WHEN** parent component `Anchor` is unchanged (cache hit) and child component `NavLink` is changed (cache miss)
+- **THEN** `Anchor`'s cached evaluation entry is in `evaluated`, and `NavLink`'s merge phase reads `Anchor`'s cached ComponentCss for merging — producing correct merged CSS
+
+#### Scenario: System props on cached component
+- **WHEN** component `Button` is unchanged (cache hit) and has active system props from JSX usage
+- **THEN** `Button`'s cached ComponentReplacement is in `evaluated`, and Phase 5c populates system_props correctly on the cached entry
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: Cache stores owned data types
+
+Cached extraction results SHALL use owned Rust types (String, Vec, HashMap) that are independent of OXC arena allocators. The cache SHALL NOT hold references to arena-allocated AST nodes. Arena allocators SHALL drop normally after parsing completes.
+
+#### Scenario: Arena drops after cached extraction
+- **WHEN** a file is parsed and its extraction results are cached
+- **THEN** the OXC `Allocator` used for parsing that file is dropped after extraction completes, and cached data remains valid and accessible
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: ComponentCss equality comparison
+
+ComponentCss and its nested types SHALL implement `PartialEq` to enable structural comparison between cached and freshly-extracted results. When a re-parsed file produces ComponentCss identical to the cached version, CSS regeneration MAY be skipped for that file's contribution.
+
+#### Scenario: Style-unchanged file detected
+- **WHEN** a file is re-parsed (content hash changed) but its ComponentCss results are structurally equal to the cached ComponentCss
+- **THEN** the system detects this as a "styles unchanged" condition (early-exit Layer 1)
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: Cache cleared on geological reset
+
+When a geological reset occurs (theme, config, or system file change), the entire per-file cache SHALL be cleared, forcing full re-parsing of all files on the next `analyzeProject()` call.
+
+#### Scenario: Theme change clears cache
+- **WHEN** the theme, config, or system file changes triggering a geological reset
+- **THEN** the per-file extraction cache is fully cleared before the next analysis

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: FileEntry accepts optional content hash
+
+The `FileEntry` input structure SHALL accept an optional `hash` field (string or null). When present, the hash is used for cache lookup. When absent, the file is always re-parsed.
+
+#### Scenario: Hash field present
+- **WHEN** a FileEntry includes `{ path: "src/Button.tsx", source: "...", hash: "abc123" }`
+- **THEN** the analyzer checks the per-file cache for path "src/Button.tsx" with hash "abc123"
+
+#### Scenario: Hash field absent
+- **WHEN** a FileEntry includes `{ path: "src/Button.tsx", source: "..." }` with no hash field
+- **THEN** the file is re-parsed unconditionally (backward-compatible behavior)
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: analyzeProject accepts dev_mode parameter
+
+The `analyzeProject()` NAPI function SHALL accept an optional `dev_mode` boolean parameter. When `true`, JSX scanning runs ONLY on changed files (cache misses), cached scan results are reused for unchanged files, and reconciliation is skipped entirely. When `false` or absent, full analysis proceeds unchanged (all files scanned, reconciliation applied).
+
+#### Scenario: Dev-mode parameter passed
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: true`
+- **THEN** JSX scanning runs only on changed files (cache misses), cached scan results are merged for unchanged files, and reconciliation is skipped
+
+#### Scenario: Dev-mode parameter absent
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called without a `dev_mode` parameter
+- **THEN** the analysis runs all phases including full JSX scanning (all files) and reconciliation (unchanged from current behavior)
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: Manifest output identical for cached vs uncached analysis
+
+Given identical file inputs, `analyzeProject()` SHALL produce the same manifest regardless of whether per-file extraction results were served from cache or freshly parsed. The cache SHALL NOT introduce divergence in component ordering, CSS output, or extension merging.
+
+#### Scenario: Cached result matches full analysis
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called twice with the same file inputs — first without cache, second with cache populated from the first call
+- **THEN** the manifest JSON output of both calls is byte-identical

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Plugin passes content hashes to Rust in dev mode
+
+In dev mode, the Vite plugin SHALL include per-file content hashes in the `fileEntries` array passed to `analyzeProject()`. Hashes SHALL be computed from the file source text using the existing `contentHash()` function (MD5).
+
+#### Scenario: Dev HMR includes hashes
+- **WHEN** `handleHotUpdate` triggers `runAnalysis()` in dev mode
+- **THEN** each file entry includes its content hash from `fileCache`
+
+#### Scenario: Prod build omits hashes
+- **WHEN** `buildStart` triggers `runAnalysis()` in prod mode
+- **THEN** file entries do NOT include hashes (full analysis, no caching)
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: Plugin passes dev_mode flag to Rust
+
+In dev mode, the Vite plugin SHALL pass `dev_mode: true` to `analyzeProject()`. In prod mode, `dev_mode` SHALL be `false` or omitted.
+
+#### Scenario: Dev server analysis
+- **WHEN** the Vite dev server calls `runAnalysis()`
+- **THEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: true`
+
+#### Scenario: Production build analysis
+- **WHEN** a production Vite build calls `runAnalysis()`
+- **THEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: false` or the parameter is omitted
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: Geological reset clears Rust cache
+
+When a geological reset occurs (theme, config, or system file change), the plugin SHALL call `clearAnalysisCache()` to clear the Rust-side per-file cache, then run `analyzeProject()` with full file sources (not empty sources). This ensures all files are re-parsed against the updated theme/config/system.
+
+#### Scenario: System file change clears cache
+- **WHEN** the system module file changes triggering a geological reset
+- **THEN** `clearAnalysisCache()` is called, then `analyzeProject()` re-parses all files from source (cache fully invalidated)
+
+#### Scenario: Geological reset sends full sources
+- **WHEN** the cache has been cleared for a geological reset
+- **THEN** all file entries include full source text (not empty strings), because cache misses require source for OXC parsing

+- [x] 1.5 Define `CachedEvalEntry` struct in `project_analyzer.rs`: `component_id: String`, `component_css: ComponentCss`, `replacement: ComponentReplacement`, `active_props: Option<HashSet<String>>`, `prop_config: Option<PropConfigMap>`
+- [x] 1.6 Define `CachedFileResult` struct in `project_analyzer.rs`: `hash: String`, `module_info: FileModuleInfo`, `chains: Vec<ChainDescriptor>`, `eval_results: Vec<CachedEvalEntry>`, `jsx_usage: UsageScanResult`
+- [x] 1.7 Add module-level `Mutex<HashMap<String, CachedFileResult>>` in `project_analyzer.rs` via `once_cell::sync::Lazy`
+
+## 2. Rust: FileEntry Hash Field
+
+- [x] 2.1 Add optional `hash: Option<String>` field to the `FileEntry` deserialization struct in `project_analyzer.rs`
+- [x] 2.2 Update the JSON deserialization to accept `{ path, source, hash? }` (backward compatible — missing hash defaults to `None`)
+
+## 3. Rust: Cache Integration in analyze()
+
+- [x] 3.1 Add `dev_mode: bool` parameter to the internal `analyze()` function in `project_analyzer.rs`
+- [x] 3.2 In Phase 1 (parse all files): before parsing each file, check `FILE_CACHE` for matching `(path, hash)`. If cache hit, use cached `module_info` and `chains` instead of parsing. If cache miss or no hash, parse via OXC as before.
+- [x] 3.3 On cache hit: populate the `evaluated` working HashMap from cached `eval_results` — insert each `CachedEvalEntry` so extension merging, system_props population, and manifest generation see cached entries identically to fresh ones

+- [x] 3.7 When `dev_mode` is true: skip Phase 5e (reconciliation). Pass all components to CSS generation without pruning. Gate the reconciliation call so it only runs when `dev_mode` is false.

+
+## 7. Tests
+
+- [x] 7.1 Canary test: call `analyzeProject()` without hashes (full analysis), then call again with same files + hashes — assert manifest matches via `serde_json::Value` structural comparison (not byte-identical, due to HashMap serialization non-determinism)
+- [x] 7.2 Canary test: call `analyzeProject()` with hashes, modify one fixture's source, call again with updated hash — assert changed component's CSS reflects the edit while unchanged components' CSS is identical
+- [x] 7.3 Canary test: call `analyzeProject()` with `dev_mode: true` — assert reconciliation is skipped (unused variants/states/components retained in CSS)
+- [x] 7.4 Canary test: extension chain with cached parent — call with hashes, modify parent fixture only, call again — assert child's merged CSS reflects parent's changes
+- [x] 7.5 Run `bun run verify` — confirm all existing tests pass with the new optional parameters
+- [x] 7.6 Run `bun run verify:full` — confirm showcase build (prod mode, no caching) is unaffected

+## Context
+
+The Rust extraction pipeline emits CSS declarations with raw numeric values when a scale lookup misses: `padding: 8` instead of `padding: 8px`. The transform post-processing step in the Vite plugin already does a linear scan of the CSS to resolve `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders. Adding unit fallback to this same pass is zero additional complexity.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Bare numeric values on length properties get `px` appended
+- Unitless properties (lineHeight, opacity, zIndex, fontWeight, etc.) are preserved as-is
+- Same behavior as Emotion / React DOM's unitless handling
+- Applied in both in-memory and subprocess code paths
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Other unit types (em, rem, %) — those come from scale resolution or transforms
+- Validating that the value is sensible (e.g., `fontSize: -5` → `font-size: -5px` is technically valid CSS)
+- Changing the Rust crate's output
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Unitless property set matches @emotion/unitless
+
+The canonical set (~50 properties): `animationIterationCount`, `borderImageOutset`, `borderImageSlice`, `borderImageWidth`, `boxFlex`, `boxFlexGroup`, `boxOrdinalGroup`, `columnCount`, `columns`, `flex`, `flexGrow`, `flexPositive`, `flexShrink`, `flexNegative`, `flexOrder`, `gridArea`, `gridRow`, `gridRowEnd`, `gridRowSpan`, `gridRowStart`, `gridColumn`, `gridColumnEnd`, `gridColumnSpan`, `gridColumnStart`, `fontWeight`, `lineClamp`, `lineHeight`, `opacity`, `order`, `orphans`, `tabSize`, `widows`, `zIndex`, `zoom`, `fillOpacity`, `floodOpacity`, `stopOpacity`, `strokeDasharray`, `strokeDashoffset`, `strokeMiterlimit`, `strokeOpacity`, `strokeWidth`.
+
+Store as a `Set<string>` of kebab-case names for direct matching against CSS output.
+
+### 2. Regex-based detection on emitted CSS
+
+The CSS at post-processing time is structured declarations: `property: value;`. A regex matches `([a-z-]+):\s*(-?\d+\.?\d*);` — property name, colon, bare number, semicolon. If the property is NOT in the unitless set, append `px`.
+
+Edge cases:
+- Negative values: `-8` → `-8px` ✓ (regex includes optional `-`)
+- Decimal values: `0.5` → `0.5px` ✓ (regex includes optional `.d+`)
+- Zero: `0` → `0` (no unit needed, `0px` === `0`) — could special-case but both are valid CSS
+- Values already with units: `8px`, `1rem` — won't match the bare-number regex ✓
+- CSS variable values: `var(--x)` — won't match ✓
+- Shorthand properties: `margin: 8 16` — each number needs unit. Regex matches per-declaration, not per-value within a declaration. **This needs a per-value replacement within matched declarations.**
+
+### 3. Implementation as a standalone function
+
+```typescript
+const UNITLESS = new Set([
+  'animation-iteration-count', 'border-image-outset', 'border-image-slice',
+  'border-image-width', 'box-flex', 'box-flex-group', 'box-ordinal-group',
+  'column-count', 'columns', 'flex', 'flex-grow', 'flex-positive',
+  'flex-shrink', 'flex-negative', 'flex-order', 'grid-area', 'grid-row',
+  'grid-row-end', 'grid-row-span', 'grid-row-start', 'grid-column',
+  'grid-column-end', 'grid-column-span', 'grid-column-start',
+  'font-weight', 'line-clamp', 'line-height', 'opacity', 'order',
+  'orphans', 'tab-size', 'widows', 'z-index', 'zoom',
+  'fill-opacity', 'flood-opacity', 'stop-opacity',
+  'stroke-dasharray', 'stroke-dashoffset', 'stroke-miterlimit',
+  'stroke-opacity', 'stroke-width',
+]);
+
+function applyUnitFallback(css: string): string {
+  return css.replace(
+    /([a-z-]+):\s*([^;]+);/g,
+    (match, prop, value) => {
+      if (UNITLESS.has(prop)) return match;
+      const fixed = value.replace(
+        /(?<![a-z%])(-?\d+\.?\d+)(?![a-z%\d])/g,
+        '$1px'
+      );
+      return fixed !== value ? `${prop}:${fixed};` : match;
+    }
+  );
+}
+```
+
+Called after transform resolution in both code paths.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**False positive on non-length numeric values** → Shorthand properties like `border: 1 solid red` would get `border: 1px solid red`. In this case that's actually correct. But `transition: opacity 0.3 ease` would become `transition: opacity 0.3px ease` — wrong. → Mitigated: transition durations typically have `s` or `ms` units already. If a bare `0.3` appears in a transition, it's already broken CSS. The fallback makes it less broken, not more.
+
+**Zero handling** → `0` doesn't need `px` but `0px` is equally valid. Not worth special-casing.

+## Why
+
+When a numeric style value doesn't resolve through a theme scale (e.g., `p={8}` where `8` isn't in the space scale), the Rust crate emits the raw number without units: `padding: 8`. This is invalid CSS for length properties — browsers ignore it. Emotion and React DOM both handle this by appending `px` to bare numerics on non-unitless properties. This is the single most common "styles look wrong" moment for new users.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Unit fallback pass in transform post-processing**: After the existing `__TRANSFORM__` placeholder resolution, a second regex pass detects bare numeric values in CSS declarations and appends `px` for properties that expect length units. Properties in the unitless set (`lineHeight`, `opacity`, `zIndex`, `fontWeight`, `flex`, `order`, etc.) are skipped.
+- **Applied in both code paths**: The in-memory `applyTransformPlaceholders()` and the subprocess `resolveTransformPlaceholders()` both gain the unit fallback pass.
+- **Matches Emotion/React DOM behavior**: Uses the same unitless property set as `@emotion/unitless` / React DOM's style handling.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `unit-fallback`: Bare numeric CSS values on non-unitless properties receive `px` suffix during post-processing.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Transform post-processing gains unit fallback pass after `__TRANSFORM__` resolution.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`**: `applyTransformPlaceholders()` gains a `applyUnitFallback()` call after transform resolution. `resolveTransformPlaceholders()` subprocess path also gains the call.
+- **No Rust changes**: The Rust crate continues emitting raw numeric values. Unit handling is a JS post-processing concern.
+- **No runtime changes**: Unit resolution happens at build time.
+- **Showcase**: Any bare numeric values that currently render incorrectly will now get `px` appended.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Bare numeric values receive px on length properties

+
+#### Scenario: Padding with bare number
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `padding:8;`
+- **THEN** post-processing SHALL produce `padding:8px;`
+
+#### Scenario: Margin with bare negative number
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `margin-top:-16;`

+
+#### Scenario: Font size with bare decimal
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `font-size:1.5;`

+
+#### Scenario: Value already has units
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `padding:0.5rem;`
+- **THEN** post-processing SHALL NOT modify the value
+
+### Requirement: Unitless properties are preserved
+Properties in the unitless set SHALL NOT receive `px` suffix. The unitless set SHALL match `@emotion/unitless` / React DOM's unitless property list.
+
+#### Scenario: Line height preserved
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `line-height:1.5;`
+- **THEN** post-processing SHALL NOT modify the value (line-height accepts unitless numbers)
+
+#### Scenario: Opacity preserved

+
+#### Scenario: Font weight preserved

+#### Scenario: Flex preserved
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `flex:1;`
+- **THEN** post-processing SHALL NOT modify the value
+
+### Requirement: Shorthand values handled per-number
+When a CSS declaration contains multiple bare numeric values (shorthand properties), each numeric value SHALL be independently checked and receive `px` if the property is not unitless.
+
+#### Scenario: Margin shorthand
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `margin:8 16;`

+## Context
+
+The runtime package (`packages/runtime/src/index.ts`) is a single file containing `createComponent` — a lightweight React wrapper that applies extracted CSS class names via variant, state, and system prop resolution. System already depends on runtime: both `Animus.ts` and `AnimusExtended.ts` import `createComponent` from `@animus-ui/runtime`. This mirrors the prior `absorb-theming-into-system` change which moved theming's source into system.
+
+Current import sites for `@animus-ui/runtime`:
+- `packages/system/src/Animus.ts` (line 1)
+- `packages/system/src/AnimusExtended.ts` (line 1)
+- `packages/system/package.json` (dependency)
+- `packages/showcase/package.json` (dependency — though showcase doesn't import it directly)
+- `packages/extract/src/transform_emitter.rs` (line 147 — hardcoded import in emitted JS)
+- `packages/extract/src/transform_emitter.rs` (lines 328, 455 — test assertions)
+- `packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts` (lines 165, 1125, 1145 — test assertions)
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Move `createComponent` into system as `src/runtime/index.ts`
+- Export `createComponent` from system's public API
+- Update Rust emitter to import from `@animus-ui/system`
+- Update all test assertions to match new import path
+- Remove runtime from active workspace build order and publish list
+- Consumer installs 2 packages: `@animus-ui/system` + `@animus-ui/vite-plugin`
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing `createComponent`'s signature or behavior (that's `shared-system-prop-map`)
+- Touching core or theming packages (legacy Emotion runtime — stays as-is)
+- Moving transforms out of core into system (vite-plugin's core dep stays)
+- Removing the runtime package directory (can stay as empty/deprecated)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Runtime source moves to `system/src/runtime/index.ts`
+
+Same pattern as theming absorption: dedicated subdirectory within system. The file moves wholesale — no refactoring, no splitting. System's `src/index.ts` gains `export { createComponent } from './runtime'`.
+
+**Why subdirectory over flat file:** Maintains the same organization pattern as `system/src/theme/`. If runtime gains additional exports later (e.g., shared system prop map integration), the directory is ready.
+
+### 2. Animus.ts and AnimusExtended.ts update to local import
+
+```typescript
+// Before
+import { createComponent } from '@animus-ui/runtime';
+// After
+import { createComponent } from './runtime';
+```
+
+Internal imports use relative paths, not package self-references.
+
+### 3. Rust import path is a single-line string change
+
+`transform_emitter.rs:147`:
+```rust
+// Before
+"import {{ createComponent }} from '@animus-ui/runtime';\nimport '{}';\n"
+// After
+"import {{ createComponent }} from '@animus-ui/system';\nimport '{}';\n"
+```
+
+Two test assertions in the same file (lines 328, 455) and three in `canary.test.ts` (lines 165, 1125, 1145) update to match.
+
+### 4. Runtime package removed from workspace array and build order
+
+`package.json` root workspace array: remove `packages/runtime`. `build:ts` script: remove runtime from the build chain. The `packages/runtime/` directory can remain on disk (git history) but is no longer built or published.
+
+### 5. System's React peer dep version range
+
+System already has `"react": "^18.0.0 || ^19.0.0"` as a peer dep. Runtime had `"react": ">=17.0.0"`. After absorption, use system's existing range — it's more specific and matches what we actually test against.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Runtime package disappears from npm]** → No external consumers exist (zero downloads). The published `@animus-ui/runtime@0.1.0-next.1` becomes an orphan. No migration needed.
+
+**[Showcase package.json still lists runtime dep]** → Remove it. Showcase imports system, which now contains createComponent.
+
+**[CI release job publishes runtime]** → Remove from the publish list in the workflow file.

+## Why
+
+System already depends on runtime — the builder chain's `.asElement()` and `.asComponent()` call `createComponent` directly. Renaming runtime to `@animus-ui/react` (as originally planned) would make system depend on a React-named package, defeating the framework-agnostic pretense. The builder chain produces React components; this is a React library. Absorbing runtime into system reduces the consumer install surface from 3 packages to 2 and eliminates a dependency edge that exists only because of historical package separation.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Move `createComponent` and all runtime source into `packages/system/src/runtime/`**. The function, types, and prop filtering logic move wholesale.
+- **Update `packages/system` exports** to include `createComponent` and runtime types.
+- **Update `packages/system/package.json`** — remove `@animus-ui/runtime` dependency. React peer dep already exists; verify version range.
+- **Update Rust transform emitter** — change hardcoded import from `@animus-ui/runtime` to `@animus-ui/system`. **BREAKING** for existing extracted output (no external consumers).
+- **Update showcase imports** — any `import ... from '@animus-ui/runtime'` becomes `from '@animus-ui/system'`.
+- **Remove `packages/runtime` from workspace build order** — stop building and publishing as separate package.
+- **Core and theming packages are NOT touched** — they remain as the legacy Emotion runtime.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `runtime-internalization`: Runtime shim (`createComponent`, prop filtering, class resolution) absorbed into the system package as an internal module
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `extraction-runtime-shim`: Import path changes from `@animus-ui/runtime` to `@animus-ui/system`
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Plugin's transform output references new import path
+- `system-builder`: Package gains runtime exports alongside builder chain
+
+## Impact
+
+- **packages/system** — gains `src/runtime/` directory, new exports, updated package.json
+- **packages/extract** — `transform_emitter.rs` import path change (single string constant)
+- **packages/vite-plugin** — no source changes needed (plugin doesn't import runtime directly)
+- **packages/showcase** — import path updates
+- **packages/runtime** — removed from active workspace, build order, and publish list
+- **Consumer API** — `npm install @animus-ui/system @animus-ui/vite-plugin` (was 3 packages, now 2)
+- **CI release workflow** — remove runtime from publish job package list
+
+## Progression
+
+This follows `absorb-theming-into-system` (change 1) which merged theming into system. Same pattern: move source, update imports, remove workspace entry.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: createComponent factory
+The runtime shim SHALL export `createComponent(element, className, config)` which returns a `React.forwardRef` component. The `element` parameter accepts EITHER an HTML tag string (e.g., `'button'`) OR a React component reference (for `.asComponent()` extensions). The `className` is the base extracted class name. The `config` describes variant props, state props, and system prop class mappings. The function SHALL be exported from `@animus-ui/system` (not `@animus-ui/runtime`).
+
+#### Scenario: Render with HTML tag
+- **WHEN** `createComponent('button', 'animus-Btn-x7f2', {})` creates a component and it is rendered
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL be `<button class="animus-Btn-x7f2" />`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with component reference
+- **WHEN** `createComponent(NextLink, 'animus-Link-abc', {})` creates a component with a React component as the element
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL be `<NextLink className="animus-Link-abc" />` — the component reference is used as the element type in `React.createElement`
+
+#### Scenario: Import location
+- **WHEN** extracted code needs the `createComponent` function
+- **THEN** it SHALL import from `@animus-ui/system`, not `@animus-ui/runtime`

+## Context
+
+`.props()` defines per-component custom props with CSS property mappings, optional scales, and optional transforms. The Rust extraction pipeline already parses `.props()`, scans JSX for custom prop usage, and generates utility CSS in `@layer custom`. However, the class maps from that CSS generation never reach the runtime — `createComponent` only knows about the shared `systemPropMap`. Dynamic custom props have no CSS variable slots, no scale resolution, and no transform bindings.
+
+The `dynamic-prop-fallback` change (shipped) solved this for system props by building shared `dynamicPropConfig` metadata in the manifest. Custom props can't use the same shared approach because they're per-component — two components can define `size` with different CSS property targets.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Static custom prop values produce visible CSS at runtime via per-component class maps
+- Dynamic custom prop values get CSS variable slots with scale resolution and transform bindings
+- `@layer custom` has shorthand-before-longhand cascade ordering for slot entries
+- Custom prop transforms use the shared transform registry (same functions, per-component binding)
+- Canary test fixture validates the full `.props()` pipeline end-to-end
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Custom prop groups (grouping custom props like system prop groups) — future
+- Cross-component custom prop deduplication — custom props stay per-component by design
+- Custom prop type system changes — types already work via `Scale<CP[K], T>`
+- Showcase components using `.props()` — can be added separately
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Inline per-component maps, not virtual module
+
+Custom prop class maps and dynamic config are inlined in the `createComponent` config object (3rd param) rather than added to the virtual module.
+
+**Why:** Custom props are per-component. The virtual module pattern works for shared data (one `systemPropMap` for all components). Per-component data belongs in the per-component config. Inlining avoids virtual module complexity and makes each component self-contained.
+
+**Alternative:** Per-component virtual module exports (`virtual:animus/custom-props/Card`). Rejected: too many virtual modules, complex HMR, unnecessary indirection.
+
+### 2. Config object gains `customPropMap` and `customDynamicConfig`
+
+```js
+createComponent('div', 'animus-Card-abc', {
+  systemPropNames: [...],
+  customPropMap: { size: { sm: 'animus-u-xyz', lg: 'animus-u-def' } },
+  customDynamicConfig: {
+    size: {
+      varName: '--animus-size',
+      slotClass: 'animus-dyn-abc12-size',
+      property: 'flex-basis',
+      transformName: 'size',
+      scaleValues: { xs: '10rem', sm: '15rem' }
+    }
+  }
+}, systemPropMap)
+```
+
+**Why:** Same structure as the shared system prop counterparts but scoped to one component. Runtime code can share resolution logic — just different lookup sources.
+
+### 3. Slot class scoped per-component, CSS variable not
+
+Slot class names: `animus-dyn-{classHash8}-{prop}` (e.g., `animus-dyn-abc12345-size`)
+CSS variable names: `--animus-{prop}` (e.g., `--animus-size`)
+
+**Why:** CSS variables are applied via inline `style` on the element — no cross-component collision possible since each component instance is a different DOM node. But slot classes live in the global `@layer custom` CSS sheet — two components defining `size` with different CSS property targets would produce conflicting declarations under the same class name without scoping. The class hash (first 8 chars of the component's class_name) ensures uniqueness.
+
+**Alternative:** Scope both. Rejected: CSS variable scoping (`--animus-abc12-size`) hurts debuggability in DevTools with no real benefit since variables are element-scoped.
+
+### 4. Transform references bound directly in emitted code
+
+```js
+import { transforms } from 'virtual:animus/system-props';
+// ...
+createComponent('div', 'animus-Card-abc', {
+  customDynamicConfig: {
+    size: { ..., transform: transforms.size }
+  }
+})
+```
+
+**Why:** The `transforms` export is already imported when system props have dynamic usage. Custom prop transforms reference the same shared functions by name. No binding loop needed — direct property access at module evaluation time. If transforms import isn't already present (component has custom dynamic props but no system dynamic props), the emitter adds it.
+
+**Alternative:** Per-component binding loop like system props. Rejected: direct reference is simpler and produces less code.
+
+### 5. `generate_custom_prop_css()` gains `slot_entries` parameter
+
+Same pattern as `generate_utility_css()` — the existing `generate_utility_css_impl()` handles interleaved static + dynamic entries with cascade ordering. Custom prop slot entries are built by a new `build_custom_variable_slot_entries()` that operates on per-component `PropConfigMap` + dynamic usage data.
+
+**Why:** Reuses the proven single-sorted-stream architecture. `@layer custom` gets the same cascade-correct interleaving as `@layer system`.
+
+### 6. Per-component dynamic metadata built in project_analyzer
+
+After Phase 5b JSX scanning, the analyzer builds per-component custom dynamic prop metadata by intersecting each component's `custom_prop_configs` with the dynamic usage detected for that component's custom props. This is stored alongside the component's replacement data and passed to the emitter.
+
+**Why:** System prop dynamic metadata is global (one `dynamic_props` on the manifest). Custom prop dynamic metadata must be per-component. Building it in the analyzer after scanning (same timing as system prop metadata) keeps the pipeline consistent.
+
+### 7. Canary fixture: `custom-props.tsx`
+
+New fixture component using `.props()` with:
+- A prop with a transform (`size` transform on a sizing prop)
+- A prop with an inline scale
+- A prop with a theme scale ref
+- Static and dynamic usage in JSX
+
+This tests: parsing → CSS generation → class map → replacement emission → dynamic config.
+
+### 8. Per-breakpoint slot classes (implementation divergence)
+
+Original design assumed a single slot class per dynamic prop with nested `var()` fallback chains for responsive breakpoints. Live testing revealed this causes cascade leaks: at viewports above the highest set breakpoint, the highest @media rule wins via source order and falls back to base, skipping intermediate breakpoint values.
+
+**Fix:** Each breakpoint gets its own slot class (`animus-dyn-p-xs`, `animus-dyn-p-sm`, etc.) with a simple `var(--prop-bp)` — no nesting. The runtime only applies classes for breakpoints the user actually provides. Unset breakpoints never conflict because their class isn't on the element.
+
+**Why this is better:** Matches the utility pattern (one concern per class), eliminates nested var() chains, preserves downstream cascade for rules that should override, and is cascade-safe by construction.
+
+### 9. Inline scale unit fallback at build time (implementation divergence)
+
+Inline scales with numeric values (e.g., `{ md: 64 }` for `font-size`) need unit fallback applied at build time. The runtime's `resolveValue` skips unit fallback for scale-resolved values (by design — theme scale values already have units). But inline numeric scales are raw numbers.
+
+**Fix:** `apply_unit_fallback_for_property()` in Rust applies `px` to numeric values when the CSS property expects length units. Uses the same unitless property set as the runtime.
+
+### 10. Custom prop names in group concat (implementation divergence)
+
+When a component uses both `.groups()` and `.props()`, the emitter's `systemPropNames` used `[].concat(systemPropGroups.space)` — group concat only. Custom prop names were dropped, causing them to leak to the DOM as attributes.
+
+**Fix:** The emitter appends custom prop names as a literal array to the concat expression: `[].concat(systemPropGroups.space, ["logoSize"])`.
+
+### 11. Breakpoint sort order in emission stream (implementation divergence)
+
+Per-breakpoint slot classes sorted alphabetically by class name (`lg` < `md` < `sm` < `xl` < `xs`), not by breakpoint pixel value. This produced wrong `@media` source order for `min-width` cascade.
+
+**Fix:** Sort key includes breakpoint pixel value as tertiary sort (after cascade key and CSS property). Base/static entries sort at 0, per-bp entries sort by their pixel value (480, 768, 1024, 1200, 1440).
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Per-component bytes]** Each component with `.props()` inlines its custom prop map in the JS output. Typically <100B per component — negligible vs. the component's other config. → Mitigation: only emitted for components that actually use `.props()`.
+- **[Slot class hash collisions]** Using 8 chars of class hash for slot class scoping. Collision probability is ~1 in 4 billion for any two components. → Mitigation: if collision occurs, both components' slot CSS would be in the same `@layer custom` block with different declarations — browser applies last one. Extremely unlikely and would manifest as a visible bug caught in development.
+- **[Custom + system prop name overlap]** A component could use `.groups({ space: true }).props({ p: { property: 'something' } })` — defining `p` as both a system prop and a custom prop. → Mitigation: custom prop takes precedence (checked in `customPropMap` first, then `systemPropMap`). The emitter should warn on overlap.
+- **[More HTML classes per element]** Per-breakpoint slot classes mean 2-3 classes per dynamic responsive prop instead of 1. Negligible in practice — it's a runtime-only path for non-static values.

+## Why
+
+`.props()` custom prop definitions are parsed by the Rust crate and CSS is generated into `@layer custom`, but the class maps never reach the runtime — so custom prop values are stripped from the DOM (correct) but no utility class is applied (broken). Dynamic custom props have no CSS variable slots, no transform bindings, and no scale resolution. This is the last gap between `.props()` being syntactically accepted and actually producing visible CSS at runtime.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Per-component `customPropMap`** inlined in the `createComponent` config object. Maps custom prop names → value → className, same structure as the shared `systemPropMap` but scoped to a single component.
+- **Per-component `customDynamicConfig`** for dynamic custom prop values. CSS variable slots in `@layer custom`, scale value pre-resolution (from theme refs or inline scales), transform references bound directly from the shared `transforms` export.
+- **Cascade-ordered slot entries in `@layer custom`** — shorthand-before-longhand ordering applied to custom prop dynamic slot CSS, matching the `@layer system` strategy.
+- **Canary test fixture** using `.props()` with a transform and both static + dynamic usage to verify the full pipeline end-to-end.
+- Runtime `createComponent` extended to check component-local `customPropMap` when `systemPropMap` has no match, and resolve dynamic custom props via per-component config.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+_(none — this extends existing capabilities)_
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `extraction-runtime-shim`: `createComponent` config gains `customPropMap` and `customDynamicConfig` fields. Runtime resolution checks component-local custom maps after shared system map. Dynamic custom prop CSS variable application with per-component memoization.
+- `utility-css-generation`: `@layer custom` gains dynamic slot entries via `build_variable_slot_entries()`. Cascade ordering (shorthand-before-longhand) applied to custom prop slot CSS. `generate_custom_prop_css()` accepts slot entries parameter.
+- `jsx-system-prop-scanner`: Scanner must detect dynamic usage of custom props and produce per-component `DynamicPropUsage` entries. Custom prop dynamic detection scoped to the defining component's binding.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Custom prop transforms included in the shared `transforms` virtual module export. Per-component custom prop metadata (class maps, dynamic config) serialized into manifest for transform_file consumption.
+- `dynamic-prop-fallback`: Extended to cover custom props with per-component metadata. `DynamicPropMeta` built from custom `PropConfig` (including inline scales). Variable naming scoped per-component to avoid collision with system props.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Rust crate**: `project_analyzer.rs` (per-component custom prop metadata), `css_generator.rs` (custom slot entries), `transform_emitter.rs` (inline custom prop maps in replacement), `jsx_scanner.rs` (custom prop dynamic detection)
+- **Runtime**: `packages/system/src/runtime/index.ts` — custom prop resolution path in createComponent
+- **Vite plugin**: `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts` — custom transform serialization
+- **Tests**: New canary fixture with `.props()`, new canary assertions for custom prop CSS + replacement code
+- **Bundle**: Per-component custom prop maps add bytes proportional to custom prop count (typically <100B per component with custom props). No impact on components without `.props()`.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic prop metadata in manifest
+
+The manifest SHALL contain dynamic prop metadata at two levels:
+
+1. **`UniverseManifest.dynamic_props`** — shared system prop dynamic metadata. Maps system prop names to `DynamicPropMeta` structs. A system prop appears here IFF the JSX scanner detected at least one dynamic usage across all files. Unchanged from current behavior.
+
+2. **Per-component custom dynamic props** — stored alongside each component's replacement data in the analyzer. Built by intersecting the component's `custom_prop_configs` with dynamic custom prop usage detected for that component's binding. NOT stored in the shared `dynamic_props` map.
+
+Each `DynamicPropMeta` (system or custom) SHALL include:
+- `var_name`: CSS variable name (e.g., `--animus-p` for system, `--animus-size` for custom)
+- `slot_class`: CSS class that activates the variable slot (system: `animus-dyn-p`, custom: `animus-dyn-{hash}-size`)
+- `property`: primary CSS property name
+- `properties`: multi-property list (if applicable)
+- `transform_name`: optional transform identifier
+- `scale_values`: optional pre-resolved scale value map
+
+#### Scenario: System prop dynamic metadata in shared map
+- **WHEN** `p` is used dynamically across files via `<Box p={someVar} />`
+- **THEN** `manifest.dynamic_props["p"]` contains the dynamic metadata
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop dynamic metadata per-component
+- **WHEN** Card defines `.props({ size: { property: 'flexBasis' } })` and `<Card size={someVar} />` is detected
+- **THEN** Card's per-component data includes dynamic metadata for `size`, but `manifest.dynamic_props` does NOT contain `size`
+
+#### Scenario: Same custom prop name on different components
+- **WHEN** Card and Button both define `.props({ size: ... })` with different CSS properties, and both have dynamic usage
+- **THEN** each component has independent dynamic metadata for `size` with different `property` values and different `slot_class` names
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with inline scale
+- **WHEN** a custom prop defines `scale: { xs: '10rem', sm: '15rem' }` (inline object)
+- **THEN** `scale_values` is populated directly from the inline scale (no theme lookup needed)
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with theme scale reference
+- **WHEN** a custom prop defines `scale: 'space'` (string reference)
+- **THEN** `scale_values` is populated by iterating theme entries matching the `space.` prefix (same as system props)
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic prop variable naming convention
+
+System prop CSS variables SHALL use the pattern `--animus-{prop-name-kebab}` (e.g., `--animus-p`, `--animus-border-radius`).
+
+Custom prop CSS variables SHALL use the pattern `--animus-{prop-name-kebab}` (e.g., `--animus-size`, `--animus-logo-size`). Custom props do NOT require component-scoped variable names because CSS variables are applied via inline `style` on the element — each component instance is a separate DOM node.
+
+Responsive breakpoint variants append the breakpoint name: `--animus-{prop}-{bp}` (e.g., `--animus-size-sm`).
+
+Custom prop SLOT CLASSES SHALL use the pattern `animus-dyn-{classHash8}-{prop-name-kebab}` where `classHash8` is the first 8 characters of the component's class name hash. This scoping prevents collision between different components defining the same custom prop name with different CSS property targets.
+
+#### Scenario: System prop variable name
+- **WHEN** system prop `borderRadius` has dynamic usage
+- **THEN** variable name is `--animus-border-radius`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop variable name
+- **WHEN** custom prop `logoSize` has dynamic usage
+- **THEN** variable name is `--animus-logo-size`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop slot class scoped
+- **WHEN** Card (class `animus-Card-abc12345`) defines custom prop `size` with dynamic usage
+- **THEN** base slot class is `animus-dyn-abc12345-size`, per-bp slot classes are `animus-dyn-abc12345-size-xs`, `animus-dyn-abc12345-size-sm`, etc.
+
+#### Scenario: Two components same custom prop name
+- **WHEN** Card (`animus-Card-abc12345`) and Button (`animus-Button-def67890`) both define `size`
+- **THEN** slot classes are `animus-dyn-abc12345-size` and `animus-dyn-def67890-size` (no collision)
+
+### Requirement: Lazy generation
+
+Dynamic prop metadata (system or custom) SHALL only be generated for props with detected dynamic usage. Static-only props incur zero overhead — no slot class, no CSS variable, no dynamic config entry.
+
+For custom props: if a component defines `.props({ size: ..., color: ... })` but only `size` has dynamic usage, only `size` gets dynamic metadata. `color` is handled purely via static utility classes.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop static-only
+- **WHEN** Card defines `.props({ size: ... })` and all JSX usages are static (`size="sm"`)
+- **THEN** no dynamic metadata is generated for `size`, no slot class emitted
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop mixed static and dynamic
+- **WHEN** Card defines `.props({ size: ... })` with both `size="sm"` and `size={someVar}` in JSX
+- **THEN** static utility class AND dynamic slot class are both generated for `size`

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: createComponent factory
+
+`createComponent(element, className, config, systemPropMap?, dynamicPropConfig?)` SHALL be the sole export from `@animus-ui/system` for building extracted components. The `config` object SHALL accept optional `customPropMap` and `customDynamicConfig` fields for per-component custom prop resolution.
+
+- `customPropMap`: `Record<string, Record<string, string>>` — maps custom prop name → value key → CSS class name. Same structure as `systemPropMap` but scoped to one component.
+- `customDynamicConfig`: `Record<string, { varName, slotClass, property, properties?, transformName?, transform?, scaleValues? }>` — per-component CSS variable fallback metadata for dynamic custom props.
+
+When resolving a prop value at render time, the runtime SHALL check `customPropMap` first, then `systemPropMap`. If a match is found in `customPropMap`, the corresponding class is applied and no further lookup occurs. This ensures custom props override system props when names overlap.
+
+For dynamic custom props (value not found in `customPropMap`), the runtime SHALL check `customDynamicConfig` for CSS variable slot metadata. Resolution follows the same order as system dynamic props: scale value lookup → transform → unit fallback. CSS variables are applied via the element's inline `style` attribute.
+
+#### Scenario: Static custom prop resolved via customPropMap
+- **WHEN** a component has `config.customPropMap = { size: { sm: 'animus-u-abc' } }` and receives `size="sm"`
+- **THEN** `animus-u-abc` class is added to the element and `size` is not forwarded to the DOM
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic custom prop resolved via customDynamicConfig
+- **WHEN** a component has `config.customDynamicConfig = { size: { varName: '--animus-size', slotClass: 'animus-dyn-x-size', property: 'flex-basis', scaleValues: { sm: '15rem' } } }` and receives `size={someVar}`
+- **THEN** the slot class `animus-dyn-x-size` is added to the element and `--animus-size` is set as an inline style variable with the resolved value
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with scale resolution
+- **WHEN** a component has `customDynamicConfig.size.scaleValues = { xs: '10rem', sm: '15rem' }` and receives `size="sm"` dynamically
+- **THEN** the CSS variable `--animus-size` is set to `15rem` (scale-resolved value)
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with transform
+- **WHEN** a component has `customDynamicConfig.spacing.transform` set to a transform function and receives `spacing={4}`
+- **THEN** the transform is applied to the raw value before setting the CSS variable
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop takes precedence over system prop
+- **WHEN** a component has both `systemPropMap` entry for `p` and `customPropMap` entry for `p`, and receives `p="lg"`
+- **THEN** the `customPropMap` entry is used, not the `systemPropMap` entry
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive custom prop with dynamic value
+- **WHEN** a component has `customDynamicConfig` for `size` and receives `size={{ _: baseVal, sm: smVal }}`
+- **THEN** the runtime applies base slot class (`animus-dyn-{hash}-size`) and per-bp slot class (`animus-dyn-{hash}-size-sm`), sets `--animus-size` to the resolved base value and `--animus-size-sm` to the resolved sm value
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive dynamic prop only applies used breakpoint classes
+- **WHEN** a component receives `p={{ _: 8, md: 16 }}` dynamically
+- **THEN** the runtime applies `.animus-dyn-p` and `.animus-dyn-p-md` only — breakpoint classes for xs, sm, lg, xl are NOT applied
+
+#### Scenario: No customPropMap or customDynamicConfig
+- **WHEN** a component config has no `customPropMap` and no `customDynamicConfig`
+- **THEN** behavior is identical to pre-change (system props only)
+
+### Requirement: Prop filtering includes all prop types
+
+All prop types — variant props, state props, system prop names, and custom prop names — SHALL be stripped from the `domProps` object before forwarding to the underlying DOM element. Custom prop names are included in the `systemPropNames` array alongside system prop names. The `as` prop SHALL also be excluded from DOM forwarding.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop names filtered from DOM
+- **WHEN** a component has `config.systemPropNames = ['p', 'mx', 'size', 'logoSize']` where `size` and `logoSize` are custom props
+- **THEN** none of `p`, `mx`, `size`, or `logoSize` are forwarded to the DOM element
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic style memoization
+
+Dynamic CSS variable styles for both system props and custom props SHALL be memoized via `useRef`. The runtime SHALL maintain a single style object that includes CSS variables from both system and custom dynamic props. A new style object SHALL only be allocated when at least one dynamic value changes.
+
+#### Scenario: Mixed system and custom dynamic props memoized together
+- **WHEN** a component has both system dynamic props (e.g., `p`) and custom dynamic props (e.g., `size`) with dynamic values
+- **THEN** a single memoized style object contains CSS variables for both (`--animus-p` and `--animus-size`)
+
+#### Scenario: Custom dynamic prop value unchanged
+- **WHEN** a component re-renders with the same custom prop dynamic value
+- **THEN** the existing memoized style object is reused (no new allocation)
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Custom prop map resolution order
+
+When resolving prop values to CSS classes, the runtime SHALL check sources in this order:
+1. `config.customPropMap[propName][valueKey]` (per-component custom props)
+2. `systemPropMap[propName][valueKey]` (shared system props)
+3. `config.customDynamicConfig[propName]` (per-component dynamic fallback)
+4. `dynamicPropConfig[propName]` (shared system dynamic fallback)
+
+The first match wins. This ensures per-component custom prop definitions always override shared system prop behavior.
+
+#### Scenario: Full resolution cascade
+- **WHEN** a prop name exists in both `customPropMap` and `systemPropMap` with matching value keys
+- **THEN** the `customPropMap` class is used
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop falls through to dynamic
+- **WHEN** a custom prop value is not found in `customPropMap` but `customDynamicConfig` exists for that prop
+- **THEN** the dynamic CSS variable fallback path is used

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Output structure
+
+The scanner SHALL produce deduplicated output containing:
+- **Static system prop usages**: `(prop_name, value, component_binding)` tuples — global, shared across all components
+- **Dynamic system prop usages**: `(prop_name, component_binding)` tuples — global, deduplicated by prop_name
+- **Static custom prop usages**: `(prop_name, value, component_binding)` tuples — per-component, scoped to the defining component
+- **Dynamic custom prop usages**: `(prop_name, component_binding)` tuples — per-component, scoped to the defining component
+- Variant value activations per component
+- State activations per component
+- Set of rendered component bindings
+
+Custom prop usages SHALL be tracked separately from system prop usages. A custom prop is identified by membership in the component's `custom_prop_configs` — it appears in the custom props scan output, not the system props scan output.
+
+Dynamic deduplication for custom props SHALL be scoped per-component: if component A and component B both define a `size` custom prop, their dynamic usages are tracked independently.
+
+#### Scenario: System prop static output
+- **WHEN** `<Box p={8} />` is scanned and `p` is a system prop
+- **THEN** a static system prop usage `("p", "8", "Box")` is emitted
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop static output
+- **WHEN** `<Card size="sm" />` is scanned and `size` is a custom prop on Card
+- **THEN** a static custom prop usage `("size", "sm", "Card")` is emitted
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop dynamic output
+- **WHEN** `<Card size={someVar} />` is scanned and `size` is a custom prop on Card
+- **THEN** a dynamic custom prop usage `("size", "Card")` is emitted
+
+#### Scenario: Same prop name on different components
+- **WHEN** `<Card size="sm" />` and `<Button size={3} />` both use `size` as a custom prop
+- **THEN** separate custom prop usages are emitted for each component binding
+
+#### Scenario: Mixed system and custom prop on same element
+- **WHEN** `<Card p={8} size="sm" />` where `p` is a system prop and `size` is a custom prop
+- **THEN** `p` appears in system prop output and `size` appears in custom prop output
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Per-component custom prop dynamic detection
+
+The scanner SHALL detect dynamic usage of custom props using the same detection rules as system props: identifier references, call expressions, conditional expressions, member expressions, template literals with expressions, and binary expressions.
+
+Custom prop dynamic detection SHALL be scoped to the component that defines the custom prop. The scanner uses the `global_custom_props` map (binding → set of custom prop names) to determine which props are custom for each component.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop identifier detected as dynamic
+- **WHEN** `<Card size={mySize} />` is scanned and `size` is a custom prop on Card
+- **THEN** a dynamic custom prop usage is recorded for Card's `size` prop
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop conditional detected as dynamic
+- **WHEN** `<Card size={isLarge ? "lg" : "sm"} />` is scanned
+- **THEN** a dynamic custom prop usage is recorded (conditional = dynamic, even with literal branches)
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop static value not marked dynamic
+- **WHEN** `<Card size="sm" />` is scanned with a string literal value
+- **THEN** only a static custom prop usage is recorded, no dynamic usage

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Custom prop (.props()) utility generation
+
+Custom props defined via `.props()` SHALL have their CSS rules emitted in `@layer custom`. The CSS generation function for custom props (`generate_custom_prop_css`) SHALL accept an optional `slot_entries` parameter for dynamic custom prop variable slot classes. When slot entries are provided, they SHALL be interleaved with static custom prop utility classes in a single sorted `@layer custom {}` block using the same cascade ordering as `@layer system`.
+
+Custom props MAY have inline scales (object or array in the `.props()` config), theme scale references (string), or no scale. Scale resolution follows the same rules as system props. Numeric values in inline scales SHALL have unit fallback applied at build time (e.g., `64` → `"64px"` for `font-size`), using the same unitless property set as the runtime.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with inline scale
+- **WHEN** a custom prop defines `scale: { xs: '10rem', sm: '15rem' }` and JSX uses `size="sm"`
+- **THEN** a utility class is generated with the resolved scale value `15rem`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with inline numeric scale
+- **WHEN** a custom prop defines `scale: { md: 64 }` targeting `font-size`
+- **THEN** the scale value is stored as `"64px"` (unit fallback applied at build time)
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop layer precedence
+- **WHEN** a custom prop and a system prop both target the same CSS property
+- **THEN** `@layer custom` rules take precedence over `@layer system` rules
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with dynamic slot entry
+- **WHEN** a custom prop has detected dynamic usage and slot entries are provided
+- **THEN** the slot classes appear in `@layer custom` interleaved with static custom utility classes, sorted by CSS property cascade key then breakpoint order
+
+### Requirement: Variable slot CSS generation
+
+Variable slot classes SHALL use a per-breakpoint class pattern. Each dynamic prop produces a base slot class plus one slot class per breakpoint. The runtime applies only the classes for breakpoints the user actually provides.
+
+Base slot class — no `@media` wrapper, simple `var()` reference:
+- Single-property: `.animus-dyn-p { padding: var(--animus-p); }`
+- Multi-property: `.animus-dyn-px { padding-left: var(--animus-px); padding-right: var(--animus-px); }`
+- Custom prop (component-scoped): `.animus-dyn-{hash}-size { flex-basis: var(--animus-size); }`
+
+Per-breakpoint slot classes — each wrapped in its own `@media`, targeting its own CSS variable:
+```css
+@media (min-width: 480px) {
+  .animus-dyn-p-xs { padding: var(--animus-p-xs); }
+}
+@media (min-width: 768px) {
+  .animus-dyn-p-sm { padding: var(--animus-p-sm); }
+}
+```
+
+No nested `var()` fallback chains. Each breakpoint class directly references its own variable. Unset breakpoints never conflict because their class is not applied to the element.
+
+#### Scenario: System prop variable slot in @layer system
+- **WHEN** a system prop has dynamic usage detected
+- **THEN** a base slot class and per-breakpoint slot classes appear in `@layer system`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop variable slot in @layer custom
+- **WHEN** a custom prop has dynamic usage detected
+- **THEN** a base slot class and per-breakpoint slot classes appear in `@layer custom` with component-scoped class names (e.g., `animus-dyn-{hash}-{prop}`, `animus-dyn-{hash}-{prop}-sm`)
+
+#### Scenario: No variable slot for static-only props
+- **WHEN** a prop (system or custom) has only static usage detected (no dynamic)
+- **THEN** no variable slot class is generated for that prop
+
+#### Scenario: Runtime applies only used breakpoint classes
+- **WHEN** a component receives `p={{ _: 8, md: 16 }}` dynamically
+- **THEN** the runtime applies `.animus-dyn-p` (base) and `.animus-dyn-p-md` only — not xs, sm, lg, or xl classes
+
+#### Scenario: Unset breakpoint does not conflict
+- **WHEN** a component receives `p={{ _: 8, md: 16 }}` and the viewport is >1440px
+- **THEN** the md value (16) is used because no xl class overrides it — the xl slot class is not on the element
+
+### Requirement: Single sorted emission stream
+
+Within each `@layer` block (`system` or `custom`), all rules — static utility classes AND variable slot classes — SHALL be emitted in a single sorted stream. Sorting uses: CSS property cascade key (primary), CSS property name (secondary), breakpoint pixel value (tertiary, 0 for base/static), class name (quaternary tiebreaker).
+
+The breakpoint sort ensures per-bp slot classes appear in mobile-first order (smallest viewport first) within the same CSS property group.
+
+#### Scenario: System layer single stream
+- **WHEN** system props have both static utility classes and dynamic variable slot classes
+- **THEN** they are interleaved in one `@layer system {}` block sorted by cascade key then breakpoint order
+
+#### Scenario: Custom layer single stream
+- **WHEN** custom props have both static utility classes and dynamic variable slot classes
+- **THEN** they are interleaved in one `@layer custom {}` block sorted by cascade key then breakpoint order
+
+#### Scenario: Per-bp classes sorted by pixel value
+- **WHEN** slot classes exist for breakpoints xs(480), sm(768), md(1024), lg(1200), xl(1440)
+- **THEN** they appear in source order: base, xs, sm, md, lg, xl
+
+#### Scenario: Deterministic output
+- **WHEN** the same project is analyzed twice with identical inputs
+- **THEN** both `@layer system` and `@layer custom` CSS outputs are byte-identical
+
+### Requirement: CSS property cascade ordering
+
+Within each `@layer` block, CSS rules SHALL be sorted so that shorthand properties appear before longhand properties. This prevents shorthands from resetting longhands set by earlier rules.
+
+The ordering mirrors `packages/core/src/properties/orderPropNames.ts`. Known shorthands (`border`, `margin`, `padding`, `flex`, `background`, `overflow`, `border-radius`, `grid`, `outline`, `transition`, `animation`, `gap`, `inset`, `place-items`, `place-content`, `place-self`) receive cascade key 0. All other properties receive cascade key 1.
+
+This ordering applies to BOTH `@layer system` and `@layer custom`.
+
+#### Scenario: Shorthand before longhand in @layer system
+- **WHEN** `@layer system` contains both `border` and `border-bottom-color` rules
+- **THEN** `border` rules appear before `border-bottom-color` rules in source order
+
+#### Scenario: Shorthand before longhand in @layer custom
+- **WHEN** `@layer custom` contains both `margin` (from a multi-property custom prop) and `margin-left` rules
+- **THEN** `margin` rules appear before `margin-left` rules in source order
+
+#### Scenario: Mixed static and dynamic with cascade ordering
+- **WHEN** `@layer custom` has a static shorthand utility class and a dynamic longhand slot class
+- **THEN** the shorthand static class appears before the longhand dynamic slot class

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Transform function serialization in virtual module
+
+The plugin SHALL serialize transform functions used by dynamic props (both system and custom) into the `virtual:animus/system-props` module as the `transforms` export. Each transform is serialized using `Function.prototype.toString()`. Only transforms actually referenced by dynamic prop configurations (system or custom) SHALL be included.
+
+When custom props reference transforms (via `transformName` in their `PropConfig`), those transform functions SHALL be included in the shared `transforms` export alongside system prop transforms. The transforms are shared by name — the same `size` transform used by system props and custom props is serialized once.
+
+#### Scenario: System prop transform serialized
+- **WHEN** a system prop has dynamic usage and references transform `size`
+- **THEN** the `transforms` export includes `size` serialized via `Function.prototype.toString()`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop transform serialized
+- **WHEN** a custom prop has dynamic usage and its `PropConfig` specifies `transform: 'size'`
+- **THEN** the `transforms` export includes `size` (shared with system props if both use it)
+
+#### Scenario: Custom-only transform serialized
+- **WHEN** a custom prop references a transform not used by any system prop (e.g., a user-defined transform)
+- **THEN** the `transforms` export includes that transform function
+
+#### Scenario: No dynamic usage means no transform serialized
+- **WHEN** a custom prop has a transform in its config but only static usage detected
+- **THEN** that transform is NOT included in the `transforms` export

+The `virtual:animus/system-props` module SHALL export `dynamicPropConfig` containing metadata for system props with dynamic usage. This config is shared across all components.
+
+Custom prop dynamic config SHALL NOT be included in the virtual module. Custom dynamic config is per-component and is inlined in each component's `createComponent` config object by the transform emitter.
+
+#### Scenario: System dynamic config in virtual module
+- **WHEN** system props have dynamic usage detected
+- **THEN** `dynamicPropConfig` is exported from `virtual:animus/system-props`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom dynamic config NOT in virtual module
+- **WHEN** custom props have dynamic usage detected
+- **THEN** `dynamicPropConfig` does NOT include custom prop entries — they are inlined per-component
+
+#### Scenario: Both system and custom dynamic props
+- **WHEN** both system and custom props have dynamic usage
+- **THEN** `dynamicPropConfig` contains only system prop entries; custom entries are in per-component config objects
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Custom prop transform discovery
+
+During `buildStart` analysis, the plugin SHALL discover transform references from custom prop configs in the manifest. For each component with custom props that have dynamic usage, the plugin SHALL check the component's custom prop config for `transform_name` fields and include those transforms in the serialization set.
+
+Transform discovery SHALL iterate all components in the manifest, not just system prop configs. This ensures custom-prop-only transforms (not used by any system prop) are still serialized.
+
+#### Scenario: Transform used only by custom props
+- **WHEN** a custom prop references transform `borderShorthand` but no system prop uses it dynamically
+- **THEN** `borderShorthand` is still serialized in the `transforms` export
+
+#### Scenario: No custom props with transforms
+- **WHEN** no custom props reference any transforms
+- **THEN** transform discovery is unchanged from pre-change behavior (system props only)

+## 1. Canary Fixture
+
+- [x] 1.1 Create `packages/extract/tests/fixtures/custom-props.tsx` — component using `.props()` with: a prop with `transform: 'size'`, a prop with inline scale, a prop with theme scale ref. Include static and dynamic JSX usage of each.
+- [x] 1.2 Wire fixture into `serialize-config.ts` if needed (custom prop transforms must be discoverable)
+
+## 2. JSX Scanner — Custom Prop Dynamic Detection
+
+- [x] 2.1 In `jsx_scanner.rs`, ensure `scan_jsx()` (used for custom prop scanning) produces `DynamicPropUsage` entries for custom props with dynamic values. Currently only `scan_jsx_usage()` tracks dynamic usage — verify custom prop path does the same.
+- [x] 2.2 Return per-component custom dynamic usages from the scanner to the project analyzer (custom prop usages are already scoped by component binding via `global_custom_props` map)
+- [x] 2.3 Add Rust unit tests for custom prop dynamic detection (identifier, conditional, static-only — 3 cases)
+
+## 3. Project Analyzer — Per-Component Custom Prop Metadata
+
+- [x] 3.1 After Phase 5b scanning, build per-component custom dynamic prop metadata: for each component with `custom_prop_configs`, intersect with detected custom dynamic usages to produce per-component `DynamicPropMeta` entries
+- [x] 3.2 Build per-component custom prop class maps from `custom_output.class_map` — partition the global custom class map back into per-component maps using each component's custom prop config keys
+- [x] 3.3 Store per-component custom metadata (class map + dynamic config) alongside `ComponentReplacement` — add `custom_prop_class_map` and `custom_dynamic_config` fields
+- [x] 3.4 Handle inline scales in `DynamicPropMeta` — when `PropConfig.scale` is a `Value::Object` (inline map), extract key→value entries directly instead of theme prefix lookup

+- [x] 4.1 Create `build_custom_variable_slot_entries()` in `css_generator.rs` — same pattern as `build_variable_slot_entries()` but takes per-component custom `DynamicPropMeta` with component-scoped slot class names (`animus-dyn-{hash8}-{prop}`)
+- [x] 4.2 Pass custom slot entries to `generate_custom_prop_css()` via new `slot_entries` parameter — reuses `generate_utility_css_impl()` which already handles cascade ordering
+- [x] 4.3 Wire custom slot entry building into `project_analyzer.rs` — build entries per-component, aggregate, and pass to `generate_custom_prop_css()`
+- [x] 4.4 Add Rust unit test: custom prop slot class with cascade ordering (shorthand before longhand)
+
+## 5. Transform Emitter — Per-Component Custom Prop Config
+
+- [x] 5.1 Add `custom_prop_class_map: Option<HashMap<String, HashMap<String, String>>>` to `ComponentReplacement`

+
+## 7. Runtime — Custom Prop Resolution
+
+- [x] 7.1 In `createComponent` (`packages/system/src/runtime/index.ts`), add `customPropMap` and `customDynamicConfig` to the `ComponentConfig` interface

+## Context
+
+The extraction pipeline currently handles only statically-resolvable prop values. When a system or custom prop receives a dynamic value (variable, ternary, function call), `eval_jsx_attribute_value()` in `jsx_scanner.rs` returns `None` — the prop silently produces no utility class, no CSS is set. This is the single largest gap in the compiler.
+
+The inline scale fix shipped this session (PropConfig.scale accepts `Value` — string refs, inline maps, arrays, createScale phantoms). That was piece 1 of 5. This design covers pieces 2–5: dynamic detection, CSS variable slot generation, runtime fallback, and transform shipping.
+
+**Current resolution flow (static only):**
+```
+JSX scan → eval_jsx_attribute_value() → Some(Value) | None
+                                          ↓              ↓
+                                    UtilityInput     silently dropped
+                                          ↓
+                                    resolve_styles() → CSS class
+                                          ↓
+                                    class_map[prop][serialized_value] = className
+                                          ↓
+                                    createComponent: systemPropMap[prop][key] → className
+```
+
+**After dynamic-prop-fallback:**
+```
+JSX scan → eval_jsx_attribute_value() → Static(Value) | Dynamic(prop_name)
+                                           ↓                  ↓
+                                     UtilityInput      DynamicPropUsage
+                                           ↓                  ↓
+                                     CSS class          CSS variable slot class
+                                           ↓                  ↓
+                                     class_map          dynamicPropConfig
+                                           ↓                  ↓
+                              createComponent: try class_map → fallback → CSS variable
+```
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Every prop value a user can legally write produces visible CSS — static values get zero-recalc utility classes, dynamic values get CSS-variable-backed fallback with one style recalc
+- Zero cost for static-only usage — no variable slot classes, no transform shipping, no runtime fallback logic ships if no dynamic values are detected
+- Transforms apply identically at build time and runtime — same functions, same behavior
+- The type system remains unchanged — the compiler catches up to what the types already allow
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Runtime scale resolution — dynamic values are NOT resolved through theme scales at runtime. The user's dynamic value IS the CSS value (with transform applied). This is documented behavior: `p={8}` statically resolves through the `space` scale to `0.5rem`, but `p={variable}` where `variable = 8` produces `padding: 8px` (with unit fallback). If you need scale-resolved values dynamically, use the token directly: `p={theme.space[8]}`.
+- Semi-static optimization — `p={condition ? 4 : 8}` where both branches are in the static map could theoretically extract both classes and toggle. This is a future optimization, not v1.
+- Spread scanning — `{...props}` remains ignored. Dynamic detection applies to explicitly written prop attributes only.
+- Custom prop runtime resolution — custom props are per-component and not in the shared map. Dynamic fallback for custom props follows the same architecture but requires per-component `dynamicPropConfig` in the replacement call. This is scoped to v1 but only for system/group props; custom prop extension is future work.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Scanner returns enum, not Option
+
+**Decision:** Change `eval_jsx_attribute_value()` to return a three-state result: `Static(Value)`, `Dynamic`, or `Skip`.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Adding a parallel `Vec<DynamicPropUsage>` collection alongside `Vec<SystemPropUsage>`. Rejected because the scanner's existing walk already visits every prop attribute — splitting into two collections adds no clarity and makes the dedup logic harder to maintain.
+
+**Implementation:**
+```rust
+enum PropValueResult {
+    Static(Value),   // Literal/object — generate utility class
+    Dynamic,         // Variable/expression — generate CSS variable slot
+    Skip,            // Spread, non-prop attribute
+}
+```
+
+The `_ => None` catch-all at line 441 becomes `_ => Dynamic`. Existing `None` returns for spreads and empty expressions become `Skip`.
+
+### 2. Dynamic prop metadata flows through manifest
+
+**Decision:** The manifest gains a `dynamic_props` field: `HashMap<String, DynamicPropMeta>` mapping prop names to their CSS variable config. Only props with at least one detected dynamic usage appear.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Embedding dynamic config directly in each `ComponentReplacement`. Rejected because dynamic prop config is per-prop (not per-component) — a prop is dynamic if ANY component uses it dynamically. Same deduplication principle as `systemPropMap`.
+
+**DynamicPropMeta structure:**
+```rust
+struct DynamicPropMeta {
+    var_name: String,           // "--animus-p"
+    slot_class: String,         // "animus-dyn-p"
+    property: String,           // "padding" (from PropConfig)
+    properties: Vec<String>,    // multi-property props (paddingLeft, paddingRight)
+    transform_name: Option<String>,  // "size" (if prop has transform)
+}
+```
+
+### 3. CSS variable naming convention
+
+**Decision:** `--animus-{prop-name-kebab}` for base, `--animus-{prop-name-kebab}-{breakpoint}` for responsive. Prop names are converted from camelCase to kebab-case for CSS convention compliance.
+
+**Examples:**
+- `--animus-p` (base padding)
+- `--animus-p-sm` (padding at sm breakpoint)
+- `--animus-mt-lg` (margin-top at lg breakpoint)
+- `--animus-border-radius` (from `borderRadius` prop)
+- `--animus-border-radius-sm` (responsive breakpoint)
+
+**Rationale:** Short, predictable, debuggable. The `animus-` prefix prevents collision with user CSS variables. Prop name (not CSS property name) is used because multiple props can map to the same CSS property (e.g., `p` and `px` both affect padding). Kebab-case conversion follows CSS custom property conventions.
+
+### 4. Variable slot class naming and generation
+
+**Decision:** One class per dynamic prop, named `animus-dyn-{prop_name}`. This class reads from the CSS variable for each CSS property the prop maps to.
+
+**Generated CSS for a prop `p` (property: padding) with 3 breakpoints:**
+```css
+@layer system {
+  .animus-dyn-p {
+    padding: var(--animus-p);
+  }
+  @media (min-width: 640px) {
+    .animus-dyn-p {
+      padding: var(--animus-p-sm, var(--animus-p));
+    }
+  }
+  @media (min-width: 768px) {
+    .animus-dyn-p {
+      padding: var(--animus-p-md, var(--animus-p));
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Multi-property props** (e.g., `px` → paddingLeft + paddingRight):
+```css
+.animus-dyn-px {
+  padding-left: var(--animus-px);
+  padding-right: var(--animus-px);
+}
+```
+
+**Layer placement and cascade ordering:** Slot classes are merged into the same `@layer system` emission stream as static utility classes via `build_variable_slot_entries()`. All rules — static and dynamic — are sorted by CSS property cascade key (shorthands first, longhands last), mirroring the ordering from `packages/core/src/properties/orderPropNames.ts`. This ensures longhands always override shorthands within the same layer. One `@layer system {}` block, one sort, interleaved.
+
+**Alternative considered:** One class per prop per breakpoint. Rejected — the CSS `var()` fallback chain (`var(--animus-p-sm, var(--animus-p))`) handles missing breakpoints gracefully in a single class. Fewer classes = smaller CSS, simpler runtime.
+
+**Alternative considered (and shipped initially):** Two separate CSS blocks — slot classes prepended, utility classes appended. Rejected during implementation because shorthand slot classes could override longhand utility classes due to source order. Merged into single sorted stream.
+
+### 5. Runtime fallback in createComponent
+
+**Decision:** When `systemPropMap[prop][key]` returns no class, check if `dynamicPropConfig` has an entry for that prop. If yes: add the variable slot class and set CSS variable(s) on inline style.
+
+**New parameter:** `createComponent` gains an optional 5th parameter `dynamicPropConfig`:
+```typescript
+type DynamicPropConfig = Record<string, {
+  varName: string;      // "--animus-p"
+  slotClass: string;    // "animus-dyn-p"
+  transform?: (value: string | number) => string | number;
+}>;
+```
+
+**Resolution logic:**
+```
+for each system prop:
+  1. If value is null/undefined → skip entirely (no class, no variable)
+  2. Try static map lookup: systemPropMap[prop][serializeValueKey(value)]
+  3. If match → push static class (existing behavior, zero overhead)
+  4. If no match AND dynamicPropConfig[prop] exists:
+     a. Push slotClass to classes array
+     b. Resolve value via resolveValue():
+        i.   Check scaleValues[String(value)] → if found, use pre-resolved CSS value
+        ii.  Apply transform if configured (to scale-resolved or raw value)
+        iii. Apply unit fallback (applyUnitFallback) if no scale match
+     c. If value is responsive object: resolve each breakpoint value, set per-breakpoint CSS variables
+     d. If value is primitive: resolve, set base CSS variable
+     e. Merge into memoized style object
+```
+
+**Memoization:** The inline style object for CSS variables is cached via `useRef`. A new object is only allocated when the serialized dynamic prop values change between renders. This prevents React from scheduling unnecessary DOM mutations on re-renders with stable values.
+
+**Unit fallback:** The runtime applies the same unit fallback logic as the static path — unitless numeric values on properties that expect length units receive `px`. Properties in the unitless set (`lineHeight`, `opacity`, `zIndex`, etc.) are skipped.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Always applying inline styles without the slot class. Rejected — the slot class provides the CSS property mapping via `var()`. Without it, we'd need to know the CSS property name at runtime (possible but redundant with what's already in CSS).
+
+### 6. Transform shipping via virtual module
+
+**Decision:** The virtual module `virtual:animus/system-props` gains separate `dynamicPropConfig` and `transforms` exports. Transform functions are kept as a separate export for independent HMR invalidation. Binding happens at component definition time (module load), not per render.
+
+**Rationale:** Transform functions already exist as JS in `ds.serialize().transforms`. They're loaded at `buildStart`. The virtual module already serves data — adding code exports is natural. Lazy inclusion means only transforms with dynamic prop usage ship. Keeping `transforms` separate from `dynamicPropConfig` means changes to dynamic prop detection don't invalidate the (larger, stable) `systemPropMap` export unnecessarily.
+
+**Virtual module output:**
+```javascript
+export const systemPropMap = { ... };
+export const systemPropGroups = { ... };
+export const dynamicPropConfig = { p: { varName: '--animus-p', slotClass: 'animus-dyn-p', transformName: null }, borderRadius: { varName: '--animus-border-radius', slotClass: 'animus-dyn-border-radius', transformName: 'size' } };
+export const transforms = { size: function(v) { ... } };
+```
+
+**Transform binding at definition time:** The generated replacement code binds transforms once at module load, not per render:
+```javascript
+import { systemPropMap, dynamicPropConfig, transforms } from 'virtual:animus/system-props';
+// Bind transforms at definition time (runs once at module load):
+for (const [k, v] of Object.entries(dynamicPropConfig)) {
+  if (v.transformName) v.transform = transforms[v.transformName];
+}
+createComponent('div', 'animus-Box-abc', config, systemPropMap, dynamicPropConfig);
+```
+
+This keeps the one-time binding cost at module load (O(N dynamic props)) and the per-render cost at zero for transform lookup.
+
+### 7. Responsive dynamic value handling
+
+**Decision:** When a dynamic prop receives a responsive object `{ _: x, sm: y, md: z }`, the runtime sets per-breakpoint CSS variables:
+```
+style['--animus-p'] = transform(x)       // base
+style['--animus-p-sm'] = transform(y)    // sm
+style['--animus-p-md'] = transform(z)    // md
+```
+
+The CSS fallback chains handle partial objects — if only `_` and `md` are set, the `sm` breakpoint falls back to `var(--animus-p)` (the base value).
+
+**Alternative considered:** Flattening responsive objects to a single serialized key and looking up in the static map first. This is already done — `serializeValueKey()` produces `"_:x|sm:y"` and the map lookup happens first. The dynamic fallback only triggers when the serialized key has no match.
+
+### 8. Import injection pattern
+
+**Decision:** The transform emitter injects `dynamicPropConfig` alongside existing imports:
+```javascript
+import { createComponent } from '@animus-ui/system';
+import { systemPropMap, systemPropGroups, dynamicPropConfig } from 'virtual:animus/system-props';
+```
+
+The 5th argument is only emitted for components that use props with detected dynamic usage.
+
+**Conditional logic:**
+- Component uses group props with dynamic usage → import `dynamicPropConfig`, pass as 5th arg
+- Component uses only static group props → no change to existing behavior
+- Component uses no group props → no system prop imports at all
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+### [Risk: Scale resolution gap] → Document behavior difference
+Dynamic values do NOT resolve through theme scales. `p={8}` statically gives `padding: 0.5rem` (via `space` scale), but `p={variable}` where `variable = 8` gives `padding: 8px` (unit fallback). **Mitigation:** Document clearly. Transforms still apply (e.g., `size` transform converts units). Future: optional per-prop scale shipping for props that need runtime resolution.
+
+### [Risk: Transform function serialization] → Functions serialize as source text
+The virtual module emits transform functions as source text. If transforms close over external state (imports, config), serialization breaks. **Mitigation:** Transforms in Animus are already context-free pure functions — they receive a value and return a CSS value. The existing `ds.serialize().transforms` registry confirms this. Validate during virtual module generation that each transform is serializable.
+
+### [Risk: CSS variable collision] → Namespaced variable names
+Two different components using the same system prop (e.g., both use `p`) share the same CSS variable (`--animus-p`). If both are rendered with different dynamic values, the last render wins. **Mitigation:** CSS variables are set via inline `style` on the element, so they're scoped to that element's subtree. No collision occurs because each element sets its own inline style.
+
+### [Risk: Bundle size increase] → Lazy everything
+Variable slot CSS adds ~4 rules per dynamic prop per breakpoint count. Transform functions add bytes per shipped transform. **Mitigation:** Both are lazy — only generated/shipped for props with detected dynamic usage. If a project uses only static values, bundle impact is zero.
+
+### [Risk: Style recalc performance] → One recalc per prop change, bounded
+Setting a CSS variable via inline style triggers a style recalculation. For responsive objects, multiple CSS variables are set in one render. **Mitigation:** This is standard CSS variable behavior — same performance as any CSS-in-JS library setting inline styles. The user opted into dynamism. Static props remain zero-recalc.
+
+### [Risk: Stale dynamic detection on HMR] → Geological reset handles it
+If a prop changes from dynamic to static usage (or vice versa) during development, the variable slot classes need to be regenerated. **Mitigation:** The existing geological reset path re-runs full analysis when system files change. For app file changes, the incremental path re-scans JSX — dynamic detection runs on every scan. The virtual module is invalidated when dynamic prop metadata changes.
+
+## Resolved Questions
+
+1. **Transform binding: post-bind at definition time.** Transforms are a separate export. Binding happens once at module load via a for-of loop in the generated replacement code. Zero per-render cost. Independent HMR invalidation.
+
+2. **Custom prop dynamic fallback: deferred to v1.1.** v1 handles system/group props only. Custom props are per-component and less common in application code. The architecture supports adding custom prop fallback later without changes to the core dynamic prop infrastructure.
+
+3. **Scale resolution: shipped via pre-resolved value maps.** Each dynamic prop's `DynamicPropMeta` includes `scale_values: HashMap<String, String>` — all scale entries pre-resolved at build time (e.g., `{ "1": "1px solid" }` for borders). The runtime resolves through this map before falling back to raw value + unit fallback. This was added during implementation after live testing showed that `borderBottom={1}` produced `1px` instead of the scale-resolved `1px solid`.
+
+4. **Variable naming: kebab-case.** Prop names converted from camelCase to kebab-case for CSS convention compliance. `borderRadius` → `--animus-border-radius`.
+
+5. **SSR compatibility: works by design.** CSS variables are set via the `style` attribute in SSR-rendered HTML. The browser has both the slot class (from `<head>` stylesheet) and the inline style variable on first paint. `var(--animus-p)` resolves immediately. Zero layout flash.
+
+6. **Memoization: useRef-based cache.** Dynamic style object is cached via `useRef` with a serialized key comparison. New object only allocated when values change. Prevents unnecessary React DOM mutations.

+## Why
+
+The extraction pipeline currently handles one case: statically resolvable prop values found by the JSX scanner. When a system or custom prop receives a dynamic value (variable reference, ternary, function call), the value silently disappears — no utility class exists, no fallback fires, the CSS property is never set. This is the single largest gap in the compiler.

+Additionally, custom props (`.props()`) have inline scale support in the type system (`scale: { xs: '10rem', sm: '15rem' }` and `createScale<'sm' | 'md'>()`) that the Rust pipeline doesn't fully handle — `PropConfig.scale` only accepts string theme-scale references, silently dropping inline scale objects via `#[serde(default)]`.
+
+Closing this gap is the path to compiler completion. After this, the extraction pipeline handles every value a user can legally write — static values get zero-recalc utility classes, dynamic values get CSS-variable-backed fallback classes with one style recalc.
+
+## What Changes
+
+### 1. Inline scale support in Rust PropConfig
+
+- **Fix `PropConfig.scale`** to accept `serde_json::Value` instead of `Option<String>` — handles string theme references, inline map scales, inline array scales, and empty `createScale` arrays
+- **Empty scale passthrough** — when scale is an empty array (from `createScale` phantom types), the value passes through raw. It already type-checked in TS. Apply any configured transform, emit as-is.
+- **Inline map/array scale resolution** — when scale is an object or non-empty array, resolve the value against it directly (no theme lookup)
+
+### 2. Dynamic value detection in JSX scanner
+
+- **Identify dynamic prop values** — when the JSX scanner encounters a prop value that is an identifier, call expression, conditional expression, or any non-literal AST node, mark it as dynamic
+- **Emit dynamic prop metadata** — for each dynamic prop usage, record `(prop_name, component_binding)` alongside static usages. This triggers CSS variable slot generation.
+- **Spreads remain ignored** — `{...props}` is not scanned. Future: optional utility for targeting spreads.
+
+### 3. CSS variable slot class generation
+
+- **Per-prop variable slot class** — for each prop that has at least one dynamic usage, generate a CSS class that reads from CSS custom properties instead of hardcoded values
+- **Breakpoint fallback chains** — each breakpoint variable falls back to the base variable via `var(--name-bp, var(--name))`. One class handles both primitive and responsive dynamic values without build-time type inference.
+- **Lazy generation** — only props with detected dynamic usage get variable slot classes. Props with only static values get zero dynamic overhead.
+- **Layer placement** — variable slot classes go in `@layer system` (for group props) or `@layer custom` (for custom props), same as their static counterparts
+
+Example output for a dynamic `size` prop with 3 breakpoints:
+```css
+@layer custom {
+  .animus-Box--size-var {
+    flex-basis: var(--animus-size);
+  }
+  @media (min-width: 768px) {
+    .animus-Box--size-var {
+      flex-basis: var(--animus-size-sm, var(--animus-size));
+    }
+  }
+  @media (min-width: 1024px) {
+    .animus-Box--size-var {
+      flex-basis: var(--animus-size-md, var(--animus-size));
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 4. Runtime dynamic prop resolution
+
+- **Fallback path in createComponent** — when a prop value has no class match in the shared map (system props) or per-component map (custom props), fall back to CSS variable assignment via inline style
+- **Transform application** — if the prop has a transform, apply it to the dynamic value before setting the CSS variable. Transform functions ship in the virtual module, keyed by name.
+- **Responsive object handling** — for responsive values `{ _: x, sm: y }`, set per-breakpoint CSS variables (`--animus-size`, `--animus-size-sm`). CSS fallback chains handle missing breakpoints.
+- **CSS property mapping** — the runtime needs to know which CSS variable name to set for each prop. This mapping is derived from the PropConfig at build time.
+
+### 5. Transform registry shipping
+
+- **Lazy inclusion** — only transform functions actually used by dynamic props ship to the runtime via the virtual module
+- **Transform functions are value→CSS pure functions** — they don't need to know about static vs. dynamic context, properties, or breakpoints. Same function at build time and runtime.
+- **Ship as named exports** — `virtual:animus/system-props` gains a `transforms` export alongside `systemPropMap` and `systemPropGroups`
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `dynamic-prop-fallback`: CSS variable slot class generation, runtime dynamic resolution, and transform shipping for props that receive non-static values
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `extraction-runtime-shim`: `createComponent` gains dynamic prop fallback logic — CSS variable assignment via inline style when no class match found
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: JSX scanner gains dynamic value detection. PropConfig.scale accepts inline scales. CSS generator produces variable slot classes.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Virtual module gains `transforms` export for runtime transform application
+- `jsx-system-prop-scanner`: Scanner distinguishes static (literal) from dynamic (identifier/expression) prop values
+- `prop-system`: PropConfig.scale handles all three forms (string reference, inline map/array, empty createScale phantom)
+
+## Impact
+
+- **packages/extract** (Rust): PropConfig.scale type change, JSX scanner dynamic detection, CSS generator variable slot class emission, manifest gains dynamic prop metadata
+- **packages/system** (TS): `createComponent` gains fallback logic with CSS variable assignment and transform application
+- **packages/vite-plugin** (TS): Virtual module serves transform functions, variable slot metadata
+- **CSS output**: New variable-backed utility classes for dynamic props (per-breakpoint with fallback chains)
+- **Bundle size**: Transform registry adds bytes only for transforms used by dynamic props. Variable slot classes add ~4 CSS rules per dynamic prop per breakpoint count.
+- **Performance**: Zero style recalc for static values (unchanged). One style recalc per dynamic prop change (CSS variable update). User pays only for dynamism.
+- **Type system**: No changes — `createScale` phantom types, inline scales, and responsive objects already type-check correctly. This change makes the compiler honor what the types allow.
+
+## Design Principles
+
+1. **Static is the fast path** — extracted utility classes, zero recalc, zero runtime. This is unchanged and remains the default.
+2. **Dynamic is the fallback** — CSS variable slots, one recalc, minimal runtime. Triggered ONLY by values the scanner can't resolve statically. The user forced it.
+3. **Transforms are context-free** — same function works at build time and runtime. No special dynamic-aware transform API needed.
+4. **Lazy everything** — variable slot classes, transform shipping, and dynamic prop config are only generated/shipped for props that actually receive dynamic values. Zero cost if unused.
+5. **CSS variable fallback chains** — one class handles both primitive and responsive dynamic values. No build-time type inference required for breakpoint slot generation.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic prop metadata in manifest
+The extraction pipeline SHALL include a `dynamic_props` field in `UniverseManifest` mapping prop names to their dynamic configuration. A prop appears in `dynamic_props` if and only if the JSX scanner detected at least one dynamic usage across all scanned files.
+
+#### Scenario: Prop with dynamic usage appears in manifest
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` processes files where `<Box p={variable} />` appears
+- **THEN** `manifest.dynamic_props` SHALL contain an entry for `"p"` with `var_name: "--animus-p"`, `slot_class: "animus-dyn-p"`, `property: "padding"`, and `transform_name: null` (if no transform configured)
+
+#### Scenario: Prop with only static usage excluded from manifest
+- **WHEN** all usages of `display` across all files are static literals (e.g., `display="flex"`, `display="block"`)
+- **THEN** `manifest.dynamic_props` SHALL NOT contain an entry for `"display"`
+
+#### Scenario: Prop with transform includes transform name
+- **WHEN** `<Box borderRadius={radius} />` appears and `borderRadius` has a configured `size` transform
+- **THEN** `manifest.dynamic_props["borderRadius"]` SHALL have `transform_name: "size"`, `var_name: "--animus-border-radius"`, `slot_class: "animus-dyn-border-radius"`
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-property prop records all properties
+- **WHEN** `<Box px={value} />` appears dynamically and `px` maps to `["padding-left", "padding-right"]`
+- **THEN** `manifest.dynamic_props["px"]` SHALL have `properties: ["padding-left", "padding-right"]` and the variable slot class SHALL set both properties
+
+#### Scenario: Scale values pre-resolved for runtime lookup
+- **WHEN** `<StratumRow borderBottom={value} />` appears dynamically and `borderBottom` has scale `"borders"`
+- **THEN** `manifest.dynamic_props["borderBottom"].scale_values` SHALL contain all entries from the `borders` theme scale pre-resolved (e.g., `{ "1": "1px solid", "2": "2px solid" }`)
+
+### Requirement: CSS variable slot class generation
+For each prop in `dynamic_props`, the CSS generator SHALL produce a variable slot class that reads from CSS custom properties with breakpoint fallback chains.
+
+#### Scenario: Base variable slot class for single-property prop
+- **WHEN** prop `p` (property: `padding`) has dynamic usage
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL include:
+  ```css
+  @layer system {
+    .animus-dyn-p { padding: var(--animus-p); }
+  }
+  ```
+
+#### Scenario: Breakpoint fallback chains
+- **WHEN** prop `p` has dynamic usage and the system defines breakpoints `sm: 640px` and `md: 768px`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL include responsive rules with fallback chains:
+  ```css
+  @media (min-width: 640px) {
+    .animus-dyn-p { padding: var(--animus-p-sm, var(--animus-p)); }
+  }
+  @media (min-width: 768px) {
+    .animus-dyn-p { padding: var(--animus-p-md, var(--animus-p)); }
+  }
+  ```
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-property variable slot class
+- **WHEN** prop `px` (properties: `padding-left`, `padding-right`) has dynamic usage
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL include:
+  ```css
+  @layer system {
+    .animus-dyn-px {
+      padding-left: var(--animus-px);
+      padding-right: var(--animus-px);
+    }
+  }
+  ```
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop layer placement
+- **WHEN** a custom prop `logoSize` has dynamic usage
+- **THEN** the variable slot class SHALL be placed in `@layer custom`, not `@layer system`
+
+#### Scenario: No dynamic usage generates no slot classes
+- **WHEN** no props have dynamic usage across any scanned files
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain zero variable slot classes and zero CSS custom property declarations
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic prop variable naming convention
+CSS custom property names SHALL follow the pattern `--animus-{prop-name-kebab}` for the base value and `--animus-{prop-name-kebab}-{breakpoint}` for responsive breakpoints. Prop names SHALL be converted from camelCase to kebab-case.
+
+#### Scenario: Base variable name (short prop)
+- **WHEN** prop name is `mt`
+- **THEN** the base CSS variable SHALL be `--animus-mt`
+
+#### Scenario: Base variable name (camelCase prop)
+- **WHEN** prop name is `borderRadius`
+- **THEN** the base CSS variable SHALL be `--animus-border-radius`
+
+#### Scenario: Breakpoint variable name
+- **WHEN** prop name is `mt` and breakpoint is `sm`
+- **THEN** the breakpoint CSS variable SHALL be `--animus-mt-sm`
+
+### Requirement: Lazy generation
+Variable slot classes, dynamic prop metadata, and transform function shipping SHALL only be generated for props with detected dynamic usage. Props with only static values SHALL incur zero dynamic overhead.
+
+#### Scenario: Mixed static and dynamic prop usage
+- **WHEN** prop `p` has both static usages (`p={8}`, `p={16}`) and dynamic usages (`p={variable}`)
+- **THEN** BOTH static utility classes AND the variable slot class SHALL be generated — static classes for literal values, variable slot class for dynamic fallback
+
+#### Scenario: All-static project
+- **WHEN** a project uses only literal prop values
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL have an empty `dynamic_props` map, no variable slot CSS SHALL be emitted, and no transform functions SHALL be shipped to the runtime

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: createComponent factory
+The runtime shim SHALL export `createComponent(element, className, config, systemPropMap?, dynamicPropConfig?)` which returns a `React.forwardRef` component. The `element` parameter accepts EITHER an HTML tag string (e.g., `'button'`) OR a React component reference (for `.asComponent()` extensions). The `className` is the base extracted class name. The `config` describes variant props, state props, and system prop names. The optional `systemPropMap` parameter provides the shared prop→value→className lookup table. The optional `dynamicPropConfig` parameter provides CSS variable fallback metadata for props with dynamic usage. The function SHALL be exported from `@animus-ui/system` (not `@animus-ui/runtime`).
+
+#### Scenario: Render with HTML tag
+- **WHEN** `createComponent('button', 'animus-Btn-x7f2', {})` creates a component and it is rendered
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL be `<button class="animus-Btn-x7f2" />`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with component reference
+- **WHEN** `createComponent(NextLink, 'animus-Link-abc', {})` creates a component with a React component as the element
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL be `<NextLink className="animus-Link-abc" />` — the component reference is used as the element type in `React.createElement`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with variant prop
+- **WHEN** config has variants and component is rendered with `variant="stroke"`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have the variant modifier class appended
+
+#### Scenario: Render with system prop via shared map
+- **WHEN** `systemPropMap` is `{ p: { "8": "animus-u-a1b2c3" } }`, config has `{ systemPropNames: ["p"] }`, and component is rendered with `p={8}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-u-a1b2c3"`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with state prop
+- **WHEN** config is `{ states: ['loading', 'disabled'] }` and component is rendered with `loading={true}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-Btn-x7f2--loading"`
+
+#### Scenario: Default variant applied
+- **WHEN** config has `{ variants: { variant: { options: ['fill', 'stroke'], default: 'fill' } } }` and component is rendered with no `variant` prop
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-Btn-x7f2--variant-fill"`
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic fallback for unmatched system prop value
+- **WHEN** `systemPropMap` is `{ p: { "8": "animus-u-a1b2c3" } }`, `dynamicPropConfig` is `{ p: { varName: "--animus-p", slotClass: "animus-dyn-p" } }`, and component is rendered with `p="24px"`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-dyn-p"` and inline style `{ "--animus-p": "24px" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic fallback with transform
+- **WHEN** `dynamicPropConfig` is `{ "border-radius": { varName: "--animus-border-radius", slotClass: "animus-dyn-border-radius", transform: sizeTransform } }` and component is rendered with `borderRadius={4}`
+- **THEN** the inline style value SHALL be the result of `sizeTransform(4)`, not raw `4`
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic fallback resolves through scale values
+- **WHEN** `dynamicPropConfig` is `{ borderBottom: { varName: "--animus-border-bottom", slotClass: "animus-dyn-border-bottom", scaleValues: { "1": "1px solid", "2": "2px solid" } } }` and component is rendered with `borderBottom={1}`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL resolve `1` through `scaleValues` to `"1px solid"` and set inline style `{ "--animus-border-bottom": "1px solid" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic fallback applies unit fallback when no scale match
+- **WHEN** `dynamicPropConfig` is `{ p: { varName: "--animus-p", slotClass: "animus-dyn-p" } }` and component is rendered with `p={24}` (unitless numeric, no scaleValues match)
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL apply unit fallback before setting the CSS variable — inline style SHALL be `{ "--animus-p": "24px" }` (not `"24"`)
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive dynamic fallback with unit fallback
+- **WHEN** `dynamicPropConfig` is `{ p: { varName: "--animus-p", slotClass: "animus-dyn-p" } }` and component is rendered with `p={{ _: variable, sm: 16 }}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-dyn-p"` and inline style with unit fallback applied to each breakpoint value: `{ "--animus-p": applyUnitFallback(variable), "--animus-p-sm": "16px" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Static match takes precedence over dynamic fallback
+- **WHEN** `systemPropMap` has `{ p: { "8": "animus-u-a1b2c3" } }` and `dynamicPropConfig` has `{ p: { ... } }` and component is rendered with `p={8}`
+- **THEN** the static class `"animus-u-a1b2c3"` SHALL be used — the dynamic fallback SHALL NOT fire and the slot class SHALL NOT be added
+
+#### Scenario: No dynamicPropConfig provided (no dynamic props)
+- **WHEN** `createComponent('span', 'animus-Label-abc', { states: ['active'] }, systemPropMap)` is called without a 5th argument
+- **THEN** the component SHALL render normally — system prop values not in the map are silently ignored (backward compatible)
+
+#### Scenario: systemPropNames filters DOM props
+- **WHEN** config has `{ systemPropNames: ["p", "mt"] }` and component is rendered with `p={8} mt={4} onClick={fn}`
+- **THEN** only `onClick` SHALL be forwarded to the DOM — `p` and `mt` are filtered regardless of whether they matched statically or dynamically
+
+#### Scenario: Null or undefined dynamic values skip entirely
+- **WHEN** component is rendered with `p={null}` or `p={undefined}` and no static match exists
+- **THEN** the dynamic fallback SHALL NOT set any CSS variable AND SHALL NOT add the slot class to the element — the prop is treated as absent
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic style memoization
+The runtime shim SHALL memoize the inline style object for dynamic prop CSS variables using a `useRef`-based cache. A new style object SHALL only be allocated when the dynamic prop values have changed, preventing unnecessary React DOM mutations on re-renders with stable values.
+
+#### Scenario: Stable dynamic value produces no DOM mutation
+- **WHEN** a component with `dynamicPropConfig` is re-rendered with the same `p={variable}` value as the previous render
+- **THEN** the same style object reference SHALL be returned — React SHALL NOT schedule a DOM mutation for the style attribute
+
+#### Scenario: Changed dynamic value produces new style object
+- **WHEN** a component with `dynamicPropConfig` is re-rendered with a different `p={newValue}` than the previous render
+- **THEN** a new style object SHALL be created with the updated CSS variable value
+
+### Requirement: System prop value serialization for lookup
+The runtime shim SHALL serialize system prop values to string keys for lookup in the shared map. Numeric values SHALL be converted to their string representation. Responsive objects SHALL be serialized to a canonical string format that matches the extraction pipeline's key generation.
+
+#### Scenario: Numeric value lookup key
+- **WHEN** component receives `p={8}`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL look up key `"8"` in `systemPropMap.p`
+
+#### Scenario: String value lookup key
+- **WHEN** component receives `color="primary"`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL look up key `"primary"` in `systemPropMap.color`
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive value lookup key
+- **WHEN** component receives `mt={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }}`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL serialize to a canonical key (e.g., `"_:8|sm:16"`) and look up in `systemPropMap.mt`

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Static value evaluation
+The JSX scanner SHALL evaluate JSX attribute values that are static literals (numbers, strings) or static responsive objects (object expressions with only breakpoint keys and literal values). For attributes with dynamic values (identifiers, call expressions, conditional expressions, or any non-literal AST node), it SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage record instead of skipping silently.
+
+#### Scenario: Numeric literal
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `p={8}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL evaluate the value as the number `8` (static usage — unchanged)
+
+#### Scenario: String literal
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `display="flex"` or `display={"flex"}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL evaluate the value as the string `"flex"` (static usage — unchanged)
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive object with _ key
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `mt={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL evaluate the value as a responsive object `{ _: 8, sm: 16 }` (static usage — unchanged)
+
+#### Scenario: Identifier reference detected as dynamic
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `p={spacing}` where `spacing` is an identifier
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage `(prop_name: "p", binding: "Box")` — NOT skip silently
+
+#### Scenario: Skip spread attribute
+- **WHEN** a JSX element has `{...props}` spread
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL skip the spread — spreads are neither static nor dynamic (unchanged)
+
+#### Scenario: Function call detected as dynamic
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `p={getSpacing()}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage `(prop_name: "p", binding: "Box")`
+
+#### Scenario: Conditional expression detected as dynamic
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `display={isOpen ? 'block' : 'none'}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage `(prop_name: "display", binding: "Box")`
+
+#### Scenario: Member expression detected as dynamic
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `p={theme.spacing.large}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage `(prop_name: "p", binding: "Box")`
+
+#### Scenario: Template literal with expressions detected as dynamic
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `` p={`${size}px`} ``
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage `(prop_name: "p", binding: "Box")`
+
+#### Scenario: Template literal without expressions is static
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `` display={`flex`} ``
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL evaluate the value as the string `"flex"` (static — no expression interpolation)
+
+#### Scenario: Binary expression detected as dynamic
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `p={baseSize + 4}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage `(prop_name: "p", binding: "Box")`
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive object with any dynamic value detected as dynamic
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `mt={{ _: spacing, sm: 16 }}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage for `mt` — the entire responsive object is treated as dynamic if any value is non-static
+
+### Requirement: Output structure
+The JSX scanner SHALL output a deduplicated list of static `(prop_name, value, component_binding)` tuples AND a deduplicated list of dynamic `(prop_name, component_binding)` tuples. Static deduplication SHALL be by (prop_name, value). Dynamic deduplication SHALL be by prop_name — a prop is either dynamic or not, regardless of how many dynamic usages exist.
+
+#### Scenario: Deduplication across elements (static — unchanged)
+- **WHEN** the file contains `<Box p={8} />` and `<Text p={8} />`
+- **THEN** the static output SHALL contain a single entry for `(p, 8)`, not two
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic deduplication across files
+- **WHEN** file A contains `<Box p={x} />` and file B contains `<Box p={y} />`
+- **THEN** the dynamic output SHALL contain a single entry for prop `p` — not two
+
+#### Scenario: Same prop both static and dynamic
+- **WHEN** a file contains `<Box p={8} />` and `<Box p={variable} />`
+- **THEN** the static output SHALL contain `(p, 8)` AND the dynamic output SHALL contain `(p)` — both outputs are populated

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Variable slot CSS generation
+The CSS generator SHALL produce variable slot classes for props listed in `dynamic_props`. Variable slot classes SHALL be emitted alongside static utility classes in the appropriate `@layer`.
+
+#### Scenario: Single-property variable slot class
+- **WHEN** prop `p` (property: `padding`) has dynamic usage
+- **THEN** the CSS generator SHALL emit `.animus-dyn-p { padding: var(--animus-p); }` in `@layer system`
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-property variable slot class
+- **WHEN** prop `px` (properties: `padding-left`, `padding-right`) has dynamic usage
+- **THEN** the CSS generator SHALL emit `.animus-dyn-px { padding-left: var(--animus-px); padding-right: var(--animus-px); }` in `@layer system`
+
+#### Scenario: Breakpoint fallback chain generation
+- **WHEN** prop `p` has dynamic usage and breakpoints are `{ sm: "640px", md: "768px", lg: "1024px" }`
+- **THEN** the CSS generator SHALL emit responsive rules where each breakpoint's `var()` falls back to the base variable:
+  ```
+  @media (min-width: 640px) { .animus-dyn-p { padding: var(--animus-p-sm, var(--animus-p)); } }
+  @media (min-width: 768px) { .animus-dyn-p { padding: var(--animus-p-md, var(--animus-p)); } }
+  @media (min-width: 1024px) { .animus-dyn-p { padding: var(--animus-p-lg, var(--animus-p)); } }
+  ```
+
+#### Scenario: Variable slot class name convention
+- **WHEN** prop name is `mt`
+- **THEN** the variable slot class name SHALL be `animus-dyn-mt`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop variable slot in @layer custom
+- **WHEN** a custom prop `logoSize` has dynamic usage
+- **THEN** the variable slot class SHALL be placed in `@layer custom`
+
+#### Scenario: No variable slot for static-only props
+- **WHEN** prop `display` has only static usages (`display="flex"`, `display="block"`)
+- **THEN** no variable slot class SHALL be generated for `display`
+
+### Requirement: Single sorted emission stream
+Variable slot classes and static utility classes SHALL be emitted in a single `@layer system {}` block, interleaved by CSS property cascade order. The `build_variable_slot_entries()` function produces `ResolvedStyles` entries that merge into the same emission pipeline as static utility classes.
+
+#### Scenario: One @layer system block
+- **WHEN** both static utility classes and dynamic slot classes exist
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain exactly one `@layer system { ... }` block containing all rules interleaved
+
+#### Scenario: Mixed static and dynamic generates both
+- **WHEN** prop `p` has static usages `p={8}` and `p={16}` plus dynamic usage `p={variable}`
+- **THEN** the CSS SHALL contain static classes `animus-u-{hash}` for values 8 and 16 AND variable slot class `animus-dyn-p` — all in the same `@layer system` block
+
+#### Scenario: Static class takes precedence via runtime
+- **WHEN** a component renders with `p={8}` and both a static class and variable slot class exist for `p`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL apply the static class only — the variable slot class is NOT added (runtime resolution order: static match first)
+
+### Requirement: CSS property cascade ordering
+All rules within `@layer system` SHALL be sorted by CSS property cascade priority, mirroring `packages/core/src/properties/orderPropNames.ts`. Shorthand properties (border, margin, padding, etc.) SHALL appear before longhand properties in source order. This ensures longhands always override shorthands within the same layer and specificity.
+
+#### Scenario: Shorthand before longhand
+- **WHEN** both `border-bottom` (shorthand) and `border-bottom-color` (longhand) rules exist in `@layer system`
+- **THEN** the `border-bottom` rule SHALL appear BEFORE the `border-bottom-color` rule in source order — the longhand wins when both are applied
+
+#### Scenario: Padding shorthand before color longhand
+- **WHEN** both `padding` utility classes and `color` utility classes exist
+- **THEN** `padding` rules SHALL appear before `color` rules (padding is in SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES, color is not)
+
+#### Scenario: Deterministic ordering across runs
+- **WHEN** the same project is analyzed twice
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL be byte-identical — the cascade sort is fully deterministic (cascade key → CSS property name → class name)

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: System prop map virtual module
+The Vite plugin SHALL serve a virtual module at `virtual:animus/system-props` that exports the shared system prop map, system prop groups, dynamic prop configuration, and transform functions. The dynamic prop configuration and transforms SHALL only be included when dynamic prop usage is detected.
+
+#### Scenario: Resolve virtual module ID
+- **WHEN** a source file imports `from 'virtual:animus/system-props'`
+- **THEN** the plugin's `resolveId` hook SHALL resolve it to an internal virtual module ID (e.g., `\0virtual:animus/system-props`)
+
+#### Scenario: Load virtual module with dynamic props
+- **WHEN** the extraction detected dynamic usage for props `p` and `borderRadius` with `borderRadius` having a `size` transform
+- **THEN** the plugin's `load` hook SHALL return exports including `systemPropMap`, `systemPropGroups`, `dynamicPropConfig`, and `transforms` — with `transforms` containing only the `size` function
+
+#### Scenario: Load virtual module without dynamic props
+- **WHEN** no dynamic prop usage was detected across the project
+- **THEN** the plugin's `load` hook SHALL return exports including only `systemPropMap` and `systemPropGroups` — `dynamicPropConfig` and `transforms` SHALL NOT be exported
+
+#### Scenario: Module available during dev
+- **WHEN** the Vite dev server is running
+- **THEN** `virtual:animus/system-props` SHALL be resolvable and serve the current data from the most recent extraction
+
+#### Scenario: Module available during build
+- **WHEN** `vite build` runs in production mode
+- **THEN** `virtual:animus/system-props` SHALL be resolvable and serve data from the full-project extraction
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Transform function serialization in virtual module
+The Vite plugin SHALL serialize transform functions into the virtual module source code for runtime use. Only transform functions used by props in `dynamic_props` SHALL be included.
+
+#### Scenario: Transform function emitted as source
+- **WHEN** prop `borderRadius` has dynamic usage and uses the `size` transform
+- **THEN** the virtual module SHALL export `transforms` containing a `size` key with the function body from `ds.serialize().transforms.size`
+
+#### Scenario: Unused transform not shipped
+- **WHEN** the system defines transforms `size` and `color` but only `size` is used by dynamic props
+- **THEN** the virtual module SHALL only include the `size` transform — `color` SHALL NOT appear
+
+#### Scenario: Transform function serialization failure
+- **WHEN** a transform function cannot be serialized to source text (e.g., it closes over external state)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL emit a warning and omit that transform — dynamic props using it SHALL fall back to raw value passthrough
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic prop config in virtual module
+The Vite plugin SHALL export a `dynamicPropConfig` object from `virtual:animus/system-props` when dynamic props exist. Each entry SHALL contain the CSS variable name (kebab-case), slot class name, optionally a transform name (string reference, not bound function), and optionally pre-resolved scale values. Transform binding happens at component definition time via generated code, not in the virtual module.
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic prop config shape
+- **WHEN** prop `p` has dynamic usage with no transform and no scale
+- **THEN** `dynamicPropConfig.p` SHALL be `{ varName: "--animus-p", slotClass: "animus-dyn-p" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic prop config with transform name
+- **WHEN** prop `borderRadius` has dynamic usage with transform `size`
+- **THEN** `dynamicPropConfig.borderRadius` SHALL be `{ varName: "--animus-border-radius", slotClass: "animus-dyn-border-radius", transformName: "size" }` — the `transforms` export is separate
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic prop config with scale values
+- **WHEN** prop `borderBottom` has dynamic usage with scale `borders` containing `{ "1": "1px solid", "2": "2px solid" }`
+- **THEN** `dynamicPropConfig.borderBottom` SHALL include `scaleValues: { "1": "1px solid", "2": "2px solid" }` for runtime scale resolution
+
+#### Scenario: HMR invalidation on dynamic props change
+- **WHEN** a file change causes a prop to gain or lose dynamic usage
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL invalidate the `virtual:animus/system-props` module to propagate the updated `dynamicPropConfig`

+## 1. Dynamic Value Detection in JSX Scanner
+
+- [x] 1.1 Add `DynamicPropUsage` struct to `jsx_scanner.rs` with `prop_name: String` and `binding: String` fields
+- [x] 1.2 Change `eval_jsx_attribute_value()` return type from `Option<Value>` to a three-state enum `PropValueResult { Static(Value), Dynamic, Skip }` — map existing `None` returns to either `Dynamic` or `Skip` appropriately
+- [x] 1.3 Update `collect_from_jsx_opening()` to handle `PropValueResult::Dynamic` — collect dynamic prop usage with dedup by prop_name (not by value)
+- [x] 1.4 Add `dynamic_prop_usages: Vec<DynamicPropUsage>` to `UsageScanResult` and thread through `scan_jsx_usage()`
+- [x] 1.5 Add unit tests: identifier, call expression, conditional, member expression, template literal with expression all produce `Dynamic`; string/number/object literals still produce `Static`
+
+## 2. Dynamic Prop Metadata in Manifest
+
+- [x] 2.1 Add `DynamicPropMeta` struct to `project_analyzer.rs` with fields: `var_name`, `slot_class`, `property`, `properties`, `transform_name` — var_name and slot_class use camelCase→kebab-case conversion of prop names
+- [x] 2.2 Add `dynamic_props: HashMap<String, DynamicPropMeta>` to `UniverseManifest`
+- [x] 2.3 Aggregate dynamic prop usages across all files during Phase 5b — populate `dynamic_props` from PropConfig (property, properties, transform) and generate var_name/slot_class using kebab-case naming convention
+- [x] 2.4 Serialize `dynamic_props` into the manifest JSON output
+- [x] 2.5 Add `camel_to_kebab()` utility function for prop name conversion in CSS variable names
+
+## 3. CSS Variable Slot Class Generation
+
+- [x] 3.1 Add `generate_variable_slot_css()` function to `css_generator.rs` — accepts `dynamic_props` map and breakpoints, returns CSS string with variable slot classes
+- [x] 3.2 Generate base rule: `.animus-dyn-{prop-kebab} { {property}: var(--animus-{prop-kebab}); }` for single-property props
+- [x] 3.3 Generate multi-property rules: `.animus-dyn-{prop-kebab} { {prop1}: var(--animus-{prop-kebab}); {prop2}: var(--animus-{prop-kebab}); }` for multi-property props (e.g., `px`)
+- [x] 3.4 Generate breakpoint fallback chains: `@media (min-width: X) { .animus-dyn-{prop-kebab} { {property}: var(--animus-{prop-kebab}-{bp}, var(--animus-{prop-kebab})); } }` for each breakpoint
+- [x] 3.5 Place variable slot classes in `@layer system` — append to the existing system layer CSS output
+- [x] 3.6 Add unit tests: single property, multi-property, breakpoint chains, camelCase→kebab conversion, empty dynamic_props produces no output
+
+## 4. Transform Emitter Updates
+
+- [x] 4.1 Update `generate_replacement()` in `transform_emitter.rs` to emit 5th argument `dynamicPropConfig` when the component uses props with dynamic usage
+- [x] 4.2 Update `apply_replacements()` import injection to include `dynamicPropConfig` and `transforms` from virtual module when dynamic props are present — generate transform binding loop at module load time
+- [x] 4.3 Thread `dynamic_props` metadata through `ComponentReplacement` — add `has_dynamic_props: bool` flag so the emitter knows whether to emit the 5th argument

+- [x] 5.2 Add optional 5th parameter `dynamicPropConfig?: DynamicPropConfig` to `createComponent` signature
+- [x] 5.3 Implement fallback logic: when `systemPropMap[prop][key]` returns no match AND `dynamicPropConfig[prop]` exists AND value is not null/undefined, push `slotClass` to classes and set CSS variable on inline style
+- [x] 5.4 Implement responsive dynamic handling: for object values, set per-breakpoint CSS variables (`--animus-{prop-kebab}-{bp}`) with unit fallback applied to each breakpoint value
+- [x] 5.5 Apply transform when configured: `dynamicPropConfig[prop].transform(value)` before setting CSS variable
+- [x] 5.6 Apply unit fallback (`applyUnitFallback`) to dynamic values — unitless numeric values on length properties receive `px`
+- [x] 5.7 Handle null/undefined values: skip entirely — neither slot class nor CSS variable applied
+- [x] 5.8 Ensure static match takes precedence and excludes slot class: only fall back to dynamic when no class match exists in systemPropMap
+- [x] 5.9 Implement `useRef`-based style memoization: cache the dynamic style object keyed by serialized dynamic prop values, only allocate new object when values change
+
+## 6. Virtual Module Transform Shipping
+
+- [x] 6.1 Extract `dynamic_props` from manifest in `runAnalysis()` and store as `storedDynamicPropsJson`
+- [x] 6.2 Identify transforms used by dynamic props — intersect `dynamic_props[*].transform_name` with `transformRegistry`
+- [x] 6.3 Serialize used transform functions to source text using `Function.prototype.toString()` with validation — emit as separate `transforms` export
+- [x] 6.4 Extend `load()` hook for `virtual:animus/system-props` — emit `dynamicPropConfig` (with `transformName` strings, not bound functions) and `transforms` as separate exports when dynamic props exist
+- [x] 6.5 Add HMR invalidation for dynamic prop changes — invalidate virtual module when `storedDynamicPropsJson` changes
+
+## 7. Canary Tests and Verification
+
+- [x] 7.1 Add showcase component with dynamic prop usage (e.g., `<Box p={computedValue} />`) as canary test fixture
+- [x] 7.2 Assert canary: dynamic prop appears in manifest `dynamic_props` with correct var_name (kebab-case), slot_class, property
+- [x] 7.3 Assert canary: CSS output contains variable slot class with breakpoint fallback chains using kebab-case variable names
+- [x] 7.4 Assert canary: generated replacement includes `dynamicPropConfig` as 5th argument with transform binding loop
+- [x] 7.5 Run `bun run verify:full` — all existing tests pass, showcase builds successfully with dynamic prop support
+
+## 8. ⏸ Verification Checkpoint — Pause and Reorient
+
+**STOP HERE after tasks 1–7 are complete.** Before considering this change done, assess the following questions together. The goal is to determine what additional testing, edge case coverage, or regression guards are needed given the actual implementation.
+
+### Questions to consider:
+
+**Regression surface:**
+- Did any existing canary test assertions need updating beyond snapshot refreshes? If yes, what changed and why?
+- Are there implicit assumptions in the existing runtime tests or type tests that the new 5th parameter breaks?
+- Does the showcase bundle size change? If so, by how much and is it attributable to slot class CSS or virtual module growth?
+
+**Edge case coverage gaps:**
+- Same prop static in one file, dynamic in another — does the slot class appear in CSS AND the static classes remain?
+- Dynamic value at runtime that matches a static class key — does static take precedence cleanly?
+- Responsive object with mixed static/dynamic values (e.g., `{ _: variable, sm: 8 }`) — is the entire object treated as dynamic?
+- Extension chain: parent component static-only, child component with dynamic usage — does child get the 5th argument?
+- Component with NO system props — zero behavioral change? No `dynamicPropConfig` imported?
+- Empty project (no dynamic usage at all) — is the output byte-identical to before this change?
+
+**Testing strategy assessment:**
+- What is the right home for runtime fallback tests? (Unit tests in system package? Integration via canary? Both?)
+- Should we add a programmatic fixture that exercises the dynamic path end-to-end (source → Rust → manifest → replacement → runtime render)?
+- Is the memoization testable without a React test harness? If not, what's the minimum viable test?
+- Should type regression tests cover the new `DynamicPropConfig` type and the 5th parameter signature?
+
+**Holistic correctness:**
+- Walk through the full data flow for ONE dynamic prop: scanner → manifest → CSS → virtual module → transform emitter → createComponent → DOM output. Does every step produce exactly what the next step expects?
+- Is `serializeValueKey` in TS still an exact mirror of `serialize_value_key` in Rust after this change?
+- Does the unit fallback logic in the runtime match `applyUnitFallback` in the plugin? Should it be a shared utility?

+## Context
+
+The Animus extraction pipeline produces raw CSS strings — unminified, un-autoprefixed. CSS exits as `String` from Rust via `analyze_project()` → `UniverseManifest`, then gets served by the Vite plugin through two delivery paths:
+
+- **Dev mode**: Component CSS delivered via `virtual:animus/components.js` (JS-exported string) → adopted stylesheets. Variables + globals delivered via `virtual:animus/styles.css`.
+- **Prod mode**: All CSS concatenated into `virtual:animus/styles.css`.
+
+Transform placeholder resolution (`__TRANSFORM__[name](value)__`) already happens as a post-processing step in the Vite plugin after receiving CSS from Rust. Unit fallback for bare numerics also happens in the plugin. Lightning CSS integration adds one more step to this existing post-processing chain.
+
+Lightning CSS (`lightningcss` npm package / Rust crate) preserves `@layer` blocks and CSS custom properties untouched — confirmed safe for our architecture.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Production CSS is minified (reduced file size)
+- CSS is autoprefixed for configured browser targets in both dev and prod
+- Browser targets are configurable with sensible defaults
+- Integration is a clean post-processing step — no changes to extraction logic
+- Zero breaking changes — unconfigured behavior matches current output
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- CSS nesting lowering (we don't emit nested CSS)
+- CSS Modules support (we have our own scoping)
+- Source map integration (future work, separate concern)
+- Rust-side integration (the Vite plugin is the right integration point — extraction crate stays focused on extraction)
+- Replacing Vite's built-in CSS pipeline (we control our own virtual modules)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Integration point — Vite plugin, not Rust crate
+
+**Choice:** Post-process CSS in the Vite plugin using `lightningcss` Node.js bindings.
+
+**Why not Rust:** The Rust crate's concern is extraction + CSS generation. Adding optimization blurs its purpose. The Vite plugin already does post-processing (transform resolution, unit fallback). Dev mode should skip minification for debuggability — this is a build-tool concern, not an extraction concern. The `lightningcss` npm package is what Vite itself uses, so it's already in the dependency tree.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Rust-native `lightningcss` crate as optional dependency. Rejected because: adds compile-time cost to every Rust build, configuration (browser targets) is a build-tool concern, and non-Vite consumers are a future hypothetical.
+
+### Decision 2: Single `postProcessCss()` function
+
+**Choice:** A single function that takes a CSS string and returns a processed CSS string. Called at the end of the existing post-processing chain, after transform resolution and unit fallback.
+
+```
+CSS from Rust → resolve transforms → unit fallback → postProcessCss() → serve
+```
+
+Both dev and prod paths call this function. The function's behavior varies by mode:
+- **Dev:** Autoprefix only (preserves formatting for readability)
+- **Prod:** Autoprefix + minify
+
+This keeps the integration surface minimal — one function, called in two places (component CSS delivery and styles.css delivery).
+
+### Decision 3: Browser targets configuration
+
+**Choice:** Three-level fallback for browser targets:
+
+1. Explicit `targets` option in plugin config → highest priority
+2. Project's browserslist config (`.browserslistrc`, `package.json#browserslist`) → auto-detected
+3. Default: `defaults` browserslist query → sensible baseline
+
+The plugin config surface:
+```typescript
+animusExtract({
+  system: './src/ds.ts',
+  // New options:
+  targets?: string | string[],  // browserslist query string(s)
+  minify?: boolean,              // override: true = always minify, false = never
+})
+```
+
+`minify` defaults to `undefined` (auto: minify in prod, skip in dev). Explicit `true`/`false` overrides the auto behavior.
+
+**Why browserslist strings, not Lightning CSS `Targets` objects:** Browserslist is the ecosystem standard. Users already have `.browserslistrc` files. Lightning CSS's `browsersToTargets()` converts browserslist output to its internal format.
+
+### Decision 4: Dev mode autoprefixes but does not minify
+
+**Choice:** Dev mode runs Lightning CSS with `minify: false`. This preserves readable CSS in browser devtools while still adding necessary vendor prefixes (e.g., `-webkit-backdrop-filter`).
+
+**Why autoprefix in dev:** If a developer tests on Safari during development and we don't autoprefix, features like `backdrop-filter` or `user-select` may not work. The dev/prod CSS should be functionally equivalent.
+
+**Why not minify in dev:** Minification destroys readability. Dev mode CSS needs to be inspectable in browser devtools. The adopted stylesheet path already makes dev CSS slightly harder to inspect — minification would make it impossible.
+
+### Decision 5: Error handling — graceful degradation
+
+**Choice:** If Lightning CSS processing fails (malformed CSS, version mismatch, etc.), fall back to serving the unprocessed CSS with a console warning.
+
+**Why:** A post-processing failure should never block development. The unprocessed CSS is functionally correct — it just lacks vendor prefixes and minification. This is a safe degradation path.
+
+### Decision 6: lightningcss as a dependency, not a peer dependency
+
+**Choice:** `@animus-ui/vite-plugin` adds `lightningcss` as a direct dependency.
+
+**Why not peer dep:** Lightning CSS is an implementation detail of the plugin, not a consumer-facing API. The consumer shouldn't need to install it separately. The npm package is small (~2MB, platform-specific binary).
+
+**Why not optional:** Autoprefixing is a baseline expectation for production CSS tools. Making it optional means consumers ship un-autoprefixed CSS by default — an antipattern.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Lightning CSS is alpha (1.0.0-alpha.71)** → Mitigated: Parcel and Vite both depend on it in production. The API is stable in practice. Pin the exact version.
+
+**[Risk] Vendor prefix additions change CSS output size** → Acceptable: prefixes are small and necessary. Net size change should be negative (minification savings >> prefix additions).
+
+**[Risk] Adjacent @layer merging during minification** → Investigate: Lightning CSS merges adjacent `@layer` blocks with the same name during minification. We emit separate layer blocks (base, variants, states, system, custom). If they have different names (they do), no merging occurs. Safe.
+
+**[Risk] Lightning CSS modifies `calc()` expressions** → Low risk: our CSS uses simple calc expressions. Lightning CSS simplifies but doesn't break them. Verify in canary tests.
+
+**[Trade-off] Dev mode gets vendor prefixes it may not need** → Acceptable: the processing overhead is <5ms for our CSS volume. The correctness benefit outweighs the marginal cost.
+
+**[Trade-off] New dependency adds ~2MB to plugin package size** → Acceptable: this is a build-time tool. The runtime bundle is unaffected.

+## Why
+
+The extraction pipeline produces functionally correct CSS but ships it raw — unminified, un-autoprefixed, with no syntax lowering. Every production CSS tool (Tailwind, Panda, vanilla-extract) autoprefixes and minifies. This is table stakes for production readiness. Lightning CSS is Rust-native, ~100x faster than PostCSS equivalents, preserves `@layer` blocks and CSS custom properties untouched, and is already the engine Vite uses internally. Integration closes a real competitive gap with zero architectural risk.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Vite plugin gains a post-processing step** that runs Lightning CSS on all generated CSS before serving virtual modules. Autoprefixing applies in both dev and prod modes. Minification applies in prod only (dev stays readable for debugging).
+- **Browser targets are configurable** via the plugin's `targets` option, falling back to the project's browserslist config, falling back to sensible defaults.
+- **Dev mode adopted stylesheet path and prod mode virtual CSS module path both receive autoprefixing** — the post-processing step sits after transform placeholder resolution and before final delivery, covering both paths.
+- **CSS output size decreases** in production builds (minification removes whitespace, merges adjacent rules, folds longhands into shorthands where safe).
+- **Vendor prefixes added automatically** for configured browser targets (flexbox gap, backdrop-filter, etc.).
+- **Optional: Rust crate gains `lightningcss` as an optional dependency** for standalone post-processing in non-Vite contexts (test output formatting, future bundler plugins).
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `css-post-processing`: CSS minification, autoprefixing, and syntax lowering via Lightning CSS. Covers browser target configuration, dev/prod mode behavior, and integration with the existing transform resolution pipeline.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Plugin gains post-processing hooks, new configuration surface (`targets`, `minify`), and modified virtual module load paths that run CSS through Lightning CSS before delivery.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **packages/vite-plugin**: New dependency on `lightningcss` Node.js bindings. Modified `load()` hook for virtual modules. New config options surface.
+- **packages/extract** (optional): New optional Cargo dependency on `lightningcss` crate. New public `post_process()` function behind feature flag.
+- **packages/showcase**: Serves as validation — prod build CSS should be measurably smaller. Dev build CSS should gain vendor prefixes without losing readability.
+- **Consumer API**: New optional fields in `animusExtract()` plugin config. Zero breaking changes — defaults to current behavior if unconfigured.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: CSS post-processing function
+The Vite plugin SHALL expose an internal `postProcessCss()` function that takes a CSS string, processing mode, and browser targets, and returns a processed CSS string. The function SHALL use Lightning CSS (`lightningcss` npm package) for minification and autoprefixing.
+
+#### Scenario: Prod mode minifies and autoprefixes
+- **WHEN** `postProcessCss(css, { minify: true, targets })` is called
+- **THEN** the returned CSS SHALL be minified (whitespace removed, rules merged where safe) and vendor-prefixed for the specified targets
+
+#### Scenario: Dev mode autoprefixes without minifying
+- **WHEN** `postProcessCss(css, { minify: false, targets })` is called
+- **THEN** the returned CSS SHALL have vendor prefixes added but formatting preserved (no whitespace removal, no rule merging)
+
+#### Scenario: No targets specified
+- **WHEN** `postProcessCss()` is called with no explicit targets
+- **THEN** the function SHALL use the resolved default targets (browserslist query or built-in defaults)
+
+### Requirement: @layer preservation
+Lightning CSS post-processing SHALL preserve `@layer` block structure and ordering. The six cascade layers (`global`, `base`, `variants`, `states`, `system`, `custom`) SHALL appear in the output in the same order as the input.
+
+#### Scenario: Layer declaration preserved
+- **WHEN** input CSS contains `@layer global, base, variants, states, system, custom;`
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL contain an equivalent layer declaration with the same order
+
+#### Scenario: Layer blocks not merged across names
+- **WHEN** input CSS contains separate `@layer base { ... }` and `@layer system { ... }` blocks
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL preserve them as separate blocks (Lightning CSS only merges adjacent blocks with identical names)
+
+#### Scenario: Layer block content minified
+- **WHEN** prod mode processes `@layer base { .comp { display: flex; flex-direction: column; } }`
+- **THEN** the layer block wrapper is preserved while internal rules are minified
+
+### Requirement: CSS custom property preservation
+Lightning CSS post-processing SHALL NOT resolve, inline, or remove CSS custom properties (`var()` references). All `var(--animus-*)` references and `:root` variable declarations SHALL pass through untouched.
+
+#### Scenario: var() references preserved
+- **WHEN** input CSS contains `color: var(--colors-primary);`
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL contain the same `var()` reference
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic slot variables preserved
+- **WHEN** input CSS contains `padding: var(--animus-p);` in a slot class
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL contain the same `var()` reference
+
+#### Scenario: Root variable declarations preserved
+- **WHEN** input CSS contains `:root { --colors-primary: #ff2800; }`
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL contain the same declaration
+
+### Requirement: Vendor prefix insertion
+Lightning CSS SHALL add vendor prefixes based on the configured browser targets. Only prefixes required by the target browsers SHALL be inserted.
+
+#### Scenario: backdrop-filter prefixed for Safari
+- **WHEN** targets include Safari 15 and input CSS contains `backdrop-filter: blur(8px);`
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL include `-webkit-backdrop-filter: blur(8px);`
+
+#### Scenario: No unnecessary prefixes
+- **WHEN** targets only include Chrome 100+ and input CSS contains `display: flex;`
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL NOT add `-webkit-` prefix (Chrome 100 supports unprefixed flex)
+
+#### Scenario: user-select prefixed where needed
+- **WHEN** targets include browsers requiring prefix and input CSS contains `user-select: none;`
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL include the appropriate vendor-prefixed version
+
+### Requirement: Minification behavior
+In prod mode, Lightning CSS minification SHALL reduce CSS size by removing whitespace, merging adjacent rules with identical selectors or declarations, folding longhands into shorthands where safe, and simplifying color values.
+
+#### Scenario: Whitespace removal
+- **WHEN** prod mode processes multi-line indented CSS
+- **THEN** unnecessary whitespace and newlines are removed
+
+#### Scenario: Adjacent rule merging
+- **WHEN** two adjacent rules have identical selectors
+- **THEN** their declarations are merged into a single rule
+
+#### Scenario: Color simplification
+- **WHEN** input CSS contains `color: rgb(255, 40, 0);`
+- **THEN** the output CSS MAY contain a shorter equivalent (e.g., `color: #ff2800`)
+
+#### Scenario: Longhand folding
+- **WHEN** input CSS contains `margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0; margin-left: 0;` in the same rule
+- **THEN** the output CSS MAY contain `margin: 0` instead
+
+### Requirement: Graceful degradation on error
+If Lightning CSS processing fails for any reason, the plugin SHALL fall back to serving the unprocessed CSS and emit a console warning. A post-processing failure SHALL NOT block the dev server or production build.
+
+#### Scenario: Malformed CSS input
+- **WHEN** the extraction pipeline produces CSS that Lightning CSS cannot parse
+- **THEN** the unprocessed CSS is served and a warning is logged
+
+#### Scenario: Lightning CSS import failure
+- **WHEN** the `lightningcss` package is missing or fails to load
+- **THEN** the unprocessed CSS is served and a warning is logged at plugin initialization
+
+#### Scenario: Warning includes context
+- **WHEN** post-processing fails
+- **THEN** the warning message SHALL include the error details and indicate which CSS path (styles.css or components) was affected

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Plugin accepts browser target configuration
+The `animusExtract()` plugin factory SHALL accept optional `targets` and `minify` configuration options for CSS post-processing.
+
+#### Scenario: Explicit browserslist targets
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts', targets: '> 1%, last 2 versions' })`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL use those browserslist queries to derive Lightning CSS browser targets
+
+#### Scenario: Array of browserslist queries
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ targets: ['> 1%', 'not dead'] })`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL combine the queries to derive browser targets
+
+#### Scenario: No explicit targets — browserslist auto-detection
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract()` with no `targets` option
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL auto-detect browserslist config from the project (`.browserslistrc`, `package.json#browserslist`, `BROWSERSLIST` env var)
+
+#### Scenario: No browserslist config found — defaults
+- **WHEN** no explicit targets and no browserslist config is found in the project
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL use `defaults` as the browserslist query (equivalent to `> 0.5%, last 2 versions, Firefox ESR, not dead`)
+
+#### Scenario: Explicit minify override
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ minify: true })`
+- **THEN** CSS SHALL be minified in both dev and prod modes regardless of the default behavior
+
+#### Scenario: Explicit minify disable
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ minify: false })`
+- **THEN** CSS SHALL NOT be minified in any mode (autoprefixing still applies)
+
+### Requirement: Post-processing in virtual module load hooks
+The plugin's `load()` hook SHALL run CSS through Lightning CSS post-processing before returning content for virtual modules. This applies to all virtual modules that serve CSS content.
+
+#### Scenario: Production styles.css post-processed
+- **WHEN** `virtual:animus/styles.css` is loaded during a production build
+- **THEN** the concatenated CSS (variables + globals + component CSS) SHALL be post-processed with minification and autoprefixing before being returned
+
+#### Scenario: Dev styles.css post-processed
+- **WHEN** `virtual:animus/styles.css` is loaded during dev server
+- **THEN** the CSS (layer declaration + variables + globals) SHALL be post-processed with autoprefixing only (no minification) before being returned
+
+#### Scenario: Dev component CSS post-processed
+- **WHEN** `virtual:animus/components.js` is loaded during dev server
+- **THEN** the component CSS string (exported as JS template literal) SHALL be post-processed with autoprefixing only before being embedded in the JS module
+
+#### Scenario: HMR update CSS post-processed
+- **WHEN** a file change triggers HMR and new component CSS is generated
+- **THEN** the updated component CSS SHALL be post-processed before being served via the HMR bridge
+
+### Requirement: Post-processing pipeline order
+Lightning CSS post-processing SHALL be the LAST step in the CSS post-processing chain, after transform placeholder resolution and unit fallback.
+
+#### Scenario: Transform resolution before Lightning CSS
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `__TRANSFORM__[size](0.5)__` placeholders
+- **THEN** transforms are resolved first, then the fully-resolved CSS is passed to Lightning CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Unit fallback before Lightning CSS
+- **WHEN** CSS contains bare numeric values that need px suffixing
+- **THEN** unit fallback is applied first, then the corrected CSS is passed to Lightning CSS
+
+### Requirement: Target resolution at plugin initialization
+Browser targets SHALL be resolved once during plugin `configResolved` or `buildStart`, not on every CSS processing call. The resolved targets are held in closure for the duration of the build.
+
+#### Scenario: Targets resolved once
+- **WHEN** the plugin initializes with `targets: '> 1%'`
+- **THEN** the browserslist query is resolved to Lightning CSS targets once and cached
+
+#### Scenario: Targets available for all virtual modules
+- **WHEN** multiple virtual modules are loaded during a build
+- **THEN** all use the same pre-resolved targets without re-computing
+
+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Plugin factory function
+The plugin factory SHALL accept a `system` option pointing to the module that exports the SystemInstance. Additionally, it SHALL accept optional `targets` (browserslist query string or array) and `minify` (boolean) options for CSS post-processing configuration. This replaces `configPath` and `themePath` as separate options.
+
+#### Scenario: System instance path
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL load that module via a single bun subprocess to obtain tokens, prop config, group registry, and transforms
+
+#### Scenario: Default configuration
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract()` with no options
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL auto-detect the system module by searching for a file exporting a SystemInstance (same heuristic as current config/theme auto-detection)
+
+#### Scenario: Full configuration with post-processing
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts', targets: '> 1%', minify: false })`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL load the system module AND configure CSS post-processing with the specified targets and minification behavior

+## Context
+
+Each extracted component currently receives its own `systemProps` class map embedded in the `createComponent()` config. The Rust extraction pipeline builds this per-component map by intersecting global utility classes with each component's active group props. At runtime, `createComponent` iterates the component's `systemPropNames`, serializes each prop value, and looks it up in the embedded map.
+
+This works correctly but creates two architectural problems:
+1. **JS duplication**: Components sharing the same groups embed overlapping maps (e.g., 20 components with `space: true` each carry `{ p: { "8": "animus-u-xxx", ... } }`).
+2. **HMR blast radius**: When a utility class hash changes, every component file embedding that hash must be re-transformed by the Rust pipeline and hot-replaced.
+
+The CSS utility classes themselves are already deduplicated globally in `@layer system`. Only the JS lookup tables are duplicated.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Centralize the `{ propName: { valueKey: className } }` map into a single shared module
+- Reduce per-component `createComponent` config to just `systemPropNames` (string array)
+- Enable single-point HMR invalidation for utility class changes
+- Maintain runtime resolution speed (still just string key lookup)
+- Keep the runtime package (`@animus-ui/system`) portable — no hard dependency on virtual modules
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- MPA/code-split optimization of the shared map (future work — SPA-first)
+- Changing how CSS utility classes are generated or deduplicated (unchanged)
+- Changing the builder API or how `.groups()` / `.props()` are authored (unchanged)
+- Per-component tree-shaking of individual prop entries from the shared map
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Shared map as virtual module (`virtual:animus/system-props`)
+
+The global system prop map is served as `virtual:animus/system-props`, a JavaScript module exporting a single named binding.
+
+**Module shape:**
+```js
+export const systemPropMap = {
+  p: { "2": "animus-u-aaa", "4": "animus-u-bbb", "8": "animus-u-ccc" },
+  mt: { "4": "animus-u-ddd", "_:8|sm:16": "animus-u-eee" },
+  color: { "primary": "animus-u-fff" },
+  gap: { "3": "animus-u-ggg" },
+  // ... all props from all groups (group props only, not custom props)
+};
+```
+
+**Why virtual module over alternatives:**
+- **vs. globalThis/window**: Virtual modules participate in Vite's module graph — HMR, import analysis, and bundling work automatically. globalThis requires manual invalidation signaling and breaks SSR.
+- **vs. generated file on disk**: Virtual modules avoid filesystem writes, avoid git noise, and are cache-coherent with the Vite dev server.
+- **vs. separate JSON file**: A JS module is directly importable with no parsing step. The bundler can inline or chunk it.
+
+This follows the existing pattern — `virtual:animus/styles.css` already serves extracted CSS as a virtual module.
+
+### 2. Pass map as parameter to `createComponent`, not module-level import in runtime
+
+The transformed code imports the shared map and passes it to `createComponent` as a parameter:
+
+```js
+import { createComponent } from '@animus-ui/system';
+import { systemPropMap } from 'virtual:animus/system-props';
+
+const Box = createComponent('div', 'animus-Box-hash', {
+  systemPropNames: ["p", "mt", "mx", "my"]
+}, systemPropMap);
+```
+
+**Why parameter over module-level registration:**
+- **No ordering issues**: A `registerSystemPropMap()` pattern requires the registration call to execute before any component renders. Import ordering in bundled code is fragile.
+- **Runtime stays portable**: `@animus-ui/system` has no dependency on `virtual:animus/system-props`. It receives the map as data. This keeps the package testable and usable outside Vite.
+- **No global mutable state**: Each `createComponent` call receives the map reference. No singleton. No race conditions.
+
+**Why per-file import is fine:**
+Vite deduplicates module imports — `import { systemPropMap } from 'virtual:animus/system-props'` in 30 files resolves to one module instance. The import statement is ~60 bytes per file; the map data exists once in memory.
+
+### 3. Rust crate emits the shared map as a separate artifact
+
+The `analyzeProject` NAPI function currently returns `{ manifest, css }`. It will gain a third field:
+
+```rust
+AnalysisResult {
+    manifest: String,   // JSON — component replacements, per-component data
+    css: String,        // Generated CSS for all layers
+    system_prop_map: String,  // JSON — { propName: { valueKey: className } }
+}
+```
+
+The Vite plugin converts this JSON into the virtual module's JS source:
+```js
+`export const systemPropMap = ${result.system_prop_map};`
+```
+
+**Why separate from manifest:**
+- The manifest is consumed only by the plugin at build time. The system prop map must be served to the client. Different consumers, different lifecycle.
+- The manifest already contains per-component `system_props` data that will be removed. The shared map replaces all of it with one aggregate structure.
+
+### 4. Custom props (`.props()`) excluded from shared map
+
+Custom props are per-component by design — they're defined on individual builder chains and can override group props with component-specific scales. Two components can define the same custom prop name (`size`) with completely different CSS properties and scales. Sharing them in a global map would create key collisions.
+
+Custom props stay per-component in the `config` object (as `customProps`) when `.props()` is eventually implemented. The shared map contains only group props, which are system-wide by invariant.
+
+**Why not include custom props:**
+- Custom prop names are per-component and can collide across components with different semantics
+- Custom props override group props — they take precedence in the component's own scope
+- Group props are where the actual N-way duplication exists (every component with `space: true` duplicates the full space scale map)
+
+### 5. HMR: diff-based invalidation of the virtual module
+
+During HMR, after re-extraction:
+1. The plugin compares the new `system_prop_map` string against the cached version.
+2. If different, the plugin invalidates `virtual:animus/system-props` via Vite's `server.moduleGraph`.
+3. Vite propagates the invalidation to all importers (component files), triggering React re-renders.
+4. Component source files are NOT re-transformed — their `createComponent` calls and `systemPropNames` haven't changed.
+
+**Invalidation cases:**
+- New JSX prop value found → new entry in map → invalidate
+- Prop value removed (JSX edited) → entry removed → invalidate
+- Theme scale change → utility hashes change → invalidate
+- Component file edited but no system prop changes → no map invalidation
+
+### 6. Transform emitter changes
+
+**Before:**
+```rust
+ComponentReplacement {
+    system_props: Some({ "p": { "8": "cls" }, ... }),
+    system_prop_names: vec!["p", "mt", ...],
+}
+```
+Emits: `createComponent('div', 'cls', { systemProps: {...}, systemPropNames: [...] })`
+
+**After:**
+```rust
+ComponentReplacement {
+    // system_props removed
+    system_prop_names: vec!["p", "mt", ...],
+}
+```
+Emits: `createComponent('div', 'cls', { systemPropNames: [...] }, systemPropMap)` with the import added to the file header.
+
+The import `import { systemPropMap } from 'virtual:animus/system-props'` is added once per file that has any component with system props (same dedup logic as the existing `createComponent` import).
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Shared map includes all values, not per-component subsets]** → In a typical SPA this is irrelevant — all components load anyway. For MPAs with route-splitting, the shared map might include entries for props only used on other routes. Mitigation: the map is small (string→string entries compress well), and per-route map splitting can be added later as an optimization.
+
+**[Breaking change to `createComponent` signature]** → The 4th parameter is new. Existing tests and the runtime shim type need updating. Mitigation: this is an internal API consumed only by the extraction pipeline, not by end users. The change is mechanical.
+
+**[Props not in the map produce no class]** → Same behavior as today — if a prop value wasn't found by the JSX scanner at build time, it has no utility class. The shared map doesn't change this constraint. A value used in component A can now resolve in component B if the same map entry exists, which is slightly MORE resilient than before.
+
+**[Virtual module import adds ~60 bytes per transformed file]** → Negligible. Vite deduplicates the actual module. The import statement is smaller than the `systemProps` object it replaces.

+## Why
+
+Every extracted component with system props currently embeds its own `systemProps` class map — a `{ propName: { valueKey: className } }` object — in its `createComponent()` config. When multiple components share the same groups (space, layout, color), this duplicates identical prop→className lookup tables across N component files. Additionally, each component inlines the full `systemPropNames` array (30-50 string literals) even when multiple components use the same groups.
+
+This creates two problems: (1) unnecessary JS bundle weight from repeated data, and (2) HMR invalidation storms where a single utility class hash change forces re-transformation of every component file that embeds it.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Extract system prop class maps into a single shared virtual module** (`virtual:animus/system-props`). This module exports the global `{ propName: { valueKey: className } }` map, built once from the full extraction manifest. Custom props (`.props()`) excluded — they stay per-component.
+- **Export group prop name arrays alongside the shared map** (`systemPropGroups`). Each group's prop names are stored once in the virtual module. Components reference them via `[].concat(systemPropGroups.space, systemPropGroups.color)` instead of inlining literal arrays.
+- **Slim down per-component `createComponent()` configs** — `systemProps` removed, `systemPropNames` replaced with group concat references. The value→className resolution moves to the shared module.
+- **Modify the runtime shim** — `createComponent` gains optional 4th parameter for the shared map. **BREAKING** for existing config shape (internal API only).
+- **Add a new virtual module** in the Vite plugin for serving and HMR-invalidating the shared map + group arrays.
+- **Modify Rust transform emitter** to emit group references and shared map artifact.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `shared-system-prop-map`: The centralized virtual module that holds the global prop→value→className map AND per-group prop name arrays, served by the Vite plugin, imported by the runtime, and produced by the Rust extraction pipeline as a distinct artifact.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `extraction-runtime-shim`: `createComponent` gains 4th parameter. Config shape changes — `systemProps` removed, `systemPropNames` built from group references.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: New virtual module `virtual:animus/system-props` for serving the shared map + group arrays, with HMR invalidation.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **packages/extract** (Rust): `transform_emitter.rs` emits group concat refs + shared map import. `project_analyzer.rs` produces shared map as manifest field. `ComponentReplacement` gains `system_group_names`.
+- **packages/system** (TS): `createComponent` signature gains optional 4th param. Config type updated.
+- **packages/vite-plugin** (TS): Serves `virtual:animus/system-props` exporting `systemPropMap` + `systemPropGroups`.
+- **Bundle size**: 294KB → 263KB (31KB / 10.5% reduction from deduplication).
+- **HMR**: Utility class changes invalidate one shared module instead of N component files.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: createComponent factory
+The runtime shim SHALL export `createComponent(element, className, config, systemPropMap?)` which returns a `React.forwardRef` component. The `element` parameter accepts EITHER an HTML tag string (e.g., `'button'`) OR a React component reference (for `.asComponent()` extensions). The `className` is the base extracted class name. The `config` describes variant props, state props, and system prop names. The optional `systemPropMap` parameter provides the shared prop→value→className lookup table.
+
+#### Scenario: Render with HTML tag
+- **WHEN** `createComponent('button', 'animus-Btn-x7f2', {})` creates a component and it is rendered
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL be `<button class="animus-Btn-x7f2" />`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with component reference
+- **WHEN** `createComponent(NextLink, 'animus-Link-abc', {})` creates a component with a React component as the element
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL be `<NextLink className="animus-Link-abc" />` — the component reference is used as the element type in `React.createElement`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with variant prop
+- **WHEN** config has variants and component is rendered with `variant="stroke"`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have the variant modifier class appended
+
+#### Scenario: Render with system prop via shared map
+- **WHEN** `systemPropMap` is `{ p: { "8": "animus-u-a1b2c3" } }`, config has `{ systemPropNames: ["p"] }`, and component is rendered with `p={8}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-u-a1b2c3"`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with state prop
+- **WHEN** config is `{ states: ['loading', 'disabled'] }` and component is rendered with `loading={true}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-Btn-x7f2--loading"`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with multiple active states
+- **WHEN** component is rendered with `loading={true} disabled={true}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-Btn-x7f2--loading animus-Btn-x7f2--disabled"`
+
+#### Scenario: Default variant applied
+- **WHEN** config has `{ variants: { variant: { options: ['fill', 'stroke'], default: 'fill' } } }` and component is rendered with no `variant` prop
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-Btn-x7f2--variant-fill"`
+
+#### Scenario: System prop value not in shared map
+- **WHEN** `systemPropMap` is `{ p: { "8": "animus-u-a1b2c3" } }`, config has `{ systemPropNames: ["p"] }`, and component is rendered with `p={24}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2"` only — the value `24` has no matching utility class and SHALL be silently ignored
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive system prop via shared map
+- **WHEN** `systemPropMap` is `{ mt: { "_:8|sm:16": "animus-u-d4e5f6" } }`, config has `{ systemPropNames: ["mt"] }`, and component is rendered with `mt={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-u-d4e5f6"`
+
+#### Scenario: System prop overrides base style via layer
+- **WHEN** component has base style `padding: 0` in `@layer base` and is rendered with `p={8}` producing utility class in `@layer system`
+- **THEN** the utility class SHALL override the base padding because `@layer system` has higher precedence than `@layer base`
+
+#### Scenario: No systemPropMap provided (no system props)
+- **WHEN** `createComponent('span', 'animus-Label-abc', { states: ['active'] })` is called without a 4th argument
+- **THEN** the component SHALL render normally with variant/state resolution only — no system prop resolution attempted
+
+#### Scenario: systemPropNames filters DOM props
+- **WHEN** config has `{ systemPropNames: ["p", "mt"] }` and component is rendered with `p={8} mt={4} onClick={fn}`
+- **THEN** only `onClick` SHALL be forwarded to the DOM — `p` and `mt` are filtered regardless of whether they matched in the shared map
+
+### Requirement: System prop value serialization for lookup
+The runtime shim SHALL serialize system prop values to string keys for lookup in the shared map. Numeric values SHALL be converted to their string representation. Responsive objects SHALL be serialized to a canonical string format that matches the extraction pipeline's key generation.
+
+#### Scenario: Numeric value lookup key
+- **WHEN** component receives `p={8}`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL look up key `"8"` in `systemPropMap.p`
+
+#### Scenario: String value lookup key
+- **WHEN** component receives `color="primary"`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL look up key `"primary"` in `systemPropMap.color`
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive value lookup key
+- **WHEN** component receives `mt={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }}`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL serialize to a canonical key (e.g., `"_:8|sm:16"`) and look up in `systemPropMap.mt`

+### Requirement: Prop filtering includes all prop types
+The component SHALL NOT forward variant props, state props, system prop names, or custom prop names to the underlying DOM element. System prop names SHALL be sourced from the per-component `config.systemPropNames` array. When the `element` is a React component (not an HTML tag), ALL props except filtered ones SHALL be forwarded (no `isPropValid` check needed for component elements).
+
+#### Scenario: Filter props with HTML tag element
+- **WHEN** element is `'button'` and props include `variant="fill"`, `p={8}`, `onClick={fn}`
+- **THEN** only `onClick` SHALL be forwarded to the DOM (variant and system prop filtered)
+
+#### Scenario: Forward props to component element
+- **WHEN** element is `NextLink` (a React component) and props include `href="/page"`, `variant="fill"`, `p={8}`
+- **THEN** `href="/page"` SHALL be forwarded to NextLink, but `variant` and `p` SHALL still be filtered
+
+#### Scenario: Merge external className
+- **WHEN** component is rendered with `className="extra"`
+- **THEN** the DOM element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 extra"` (external className appended)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Shared system prop map artifact
+The Rust extraction pipeline SHALL produce a global system prop map as a separate artifact from `analyzeProject`, alongside the existing manifest and CSS outputs. The map SHALL aggregate all `(propName, valueKey, className)` tuples across all components into a single `{ propName: { valueKey: className } }` structure.
+
+#### Scenario: Map includes all group prop usages
+- **WHEN** component A uses `.groups({ space: true })` with JSX `<A p={8} />` and component B uses `.groups({ space: true })` with JSX `<B p={8} mt={4} />`
+- **THEN** the shared map SHALL contain `{ p: { "8": "animus-u-xxx" }, mt: { "4": "animus-u-yyy" } }` — a single entry for `p=8` shared by both components
+
+#### Scenario: Map includes custom prop usages
+- **WHEN** a component uses `.props({ logoSize: { property: 'fontSize', scale: { sm: 32, md: 64 } } })` with JSX `<Logo logoSize="md" />`
+- **THEN** the shared map SHALL include `{ logoSize: { "md": "animus-u-zzz" } }` alongside any group prop entries
+
+#### Scenario: Map deduplicates identical CSS across props
+- **WHEN** prop `p` with value `8` and prop `m` with value `8` resolve to CSS with the same content hash
+- **THEN** both map entries SHALL reference the same class name (deduplication behavior unchanged from current per-component maps)
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive values in shared map
+- **WHEN** JSX contains `<Box mt={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }} />`
+- **THEN** the shared map SHALL contain `{ mt: { "_:8|sm:16": "animus-u-resp" } }` with the canonical serialized key
+
+### Requirement: Shared map virtual module
+The Vite plugin SHALL serve the shared system prop map as `virtual:animus/system-props`, a JavaScript module exporting a named binding `systemPropMap`.
+
+#### Scenario: Virtual module resolution
+- **WHEN** a transformed file contains `import { systemPropMap } from 'virtual:animus/system-props'`
+- **THEN** the Vite plugin SHALL resolve this to the generated module containing `export const systemPropMap = { ... }`
+
+#### Scenario: Module content matches extraction output
+- **WHEN** the extraction pipeline produces a system prop map JSON `{"p":{"8":"animus-u-abc"}}`
+- **THEN** the virtual module SHALL contain `export const systemPropMap = {"p":{"8":"animus-u-abc"}};`
+
+#### Scenario: Module available in both dev and build
+- **WHEN** the Vite plugin runs in either `serve` (dev) or `build` (production) mode
+- **THEN** the `virtual:animus/system-props` module SHALL be resolvable and serve the current map
+
+### Requirement: HMR invalidation of shared map
+During dev mode HMR, the plugin SHALL invalidate the `virtual:animus/system-props` module when the system prop map changes, and SHALL NOT invalidate it when the map is unchanged.
+
+#### Scenario: New prop value triggers invalidation
+- **WHEN** a developer adds `<Box p={24} />` (a previously unused value) and saves the file
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL detect the new entry in the system prop map, invalidate `virtual:animus/system-props`, and Vite SHALL propagate the update to all importing modules
+
+#### Scenario: Unchanged map skips invalidation
+- **WHEN** a developer edits a component file but does not add, remove, or change any system prop values
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT invalidate `virtual:animus/system-props`
+
+#### Scenario: Theme change triggers invalidation
+- **WHEN** the theme/system file changes (geological reset) causing utility class hashes to change
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL invalidate `virtual:animus/system-props` with the new map
+
+#### Scenario: Component files not re-transformed on map change
+- **WHEN** the system prop map changes due to a new prop value in file A
+- **THEN** other component files (B, C, D) SHALL NOT be re-transformed by the Rust pipeline — only the virtual module updates, and Vite propagates re-renders through the import graph
+
+### Requirement: Transform emitter shared map import
+The Rust transform emitter SHALL add `import { systemPropMap } from 'virtual:animus/system-props'` to any transformed file that contains components with system props, and SHALL pass `systemPropMap` as a parameter to `createComponent`.
+
+#### Scenario: File with system props gets import
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const Box = animus.styles({...}).groups({ space: true }).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the transformed output SHALL include `import { systemPropMap } from 'virtual:animus/system-props'` in the import block
+
+#### Scenario: File without system props omits import
+- **WHEN** a file contains only `const Label = animus.styles({...}).asElement('span')` with no `.groups()` or `.props()`
+- **THEN** the transformed output SHALL NOT include the `virtual:animus/system-props` import
+
+#### Scenario: Import deduplicated per file
+- **WHEN** a file defines multiple components with system props (Box and Stack both with `.groups()`)
+- **THEN** the transformed output SHALL include the `virtual:animus/system-props` import exactly ONCE
+
+#### Scenario: systemPropMap passed to createComponent
+- **WHEN** a component with system props is transformed
+- **THEN** the emitted code SHALL be `createComponent('div', 'animus-Box-hash', { systemPropNames: [...] }, systemPropMap)` — the shared map reference as the 4th argument

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: System prop map virtual module
+The Vite plugin SHALL serve a virtual module at `virtual:animus/system-props` that exports the shared system prop map. The module SHALL be generated from the `system_prop_map` artifact returned by the Rust extraction pipeline.
+
+#### Scenario: Resolve virtual module ID
+- **WHEN** a source file imports `from 'virtual:animus/system-props'`
+- **THEN** the plugin's `resolveId` hook SHALL resolve it to an internal virtual module ID (e.g., `\0virtual:animus/system-props`)
+
+#### Scenario: Load virtual module content
+- **WHEN** the resolved virtual module ID is loaded
+- **THEN** the plugin's `load` hook SHALL return `export const systemPropMap = <JSON>;` where `<JSON>` is the system prop map from the extraction result
+
+#### Scenario: Module available during dev
+- **WHEN** the Vite dev server is running
+- **THEN** `virtual:animus/system-props` SHALL be resolvable and serve the current map from the most recent extraction
+
+#### Scenario: Module available during build
+- **WHEN** `vite build` runs in production mode
+- **THEN** `virtual:animus/system-props` SHALL be resolvable and serve the map from the full-project extraction
+
+### Requirement: System prop map HMR invalidation
+During dev mode, the plugin SHALL invalidate the `virtual:animus/system-props` module ONLY when the system prop map content changes between extraction runs.
+
+#### Scenario: Map changed after file edit
+- **WHEN** a file edit causes re-extraction and the resulting system prop map differs from the cached version
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL invalidate the `virtual:animus/system-props` module in Vite's module graph, triggering HMR for all importing modules
+
+#### Scenario: Map unchanged after file edit
+- **WHEN** a file edit causes re-extraction but the system prop map is identical to the cached version
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT invalidate the `virtual:animus/system-props` module — no unnecessary HMR propagation
+
+#### Scenario: Geological reset invalidates map
+- **WHEN** the system definition file changes (triggering a full geological reset with theme/scale reload)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL re-extract, generate a new system prop map, and invalidate the virtual module if the map changed

+## Context
+
+The builder chain currently enforces ordering: `styles → variant → states → groups → props → asElement`. Variants define independent axes (size, visual style) but there's no mechanism for expressing style overrides at the intersection of multiple variant values. Real design systems routinely need these — a button's ghost+xs combination needs different padding than either ghost or xs alone.
+
+The type-state machine uses backwards inheritance: `Animus → AnimusWithBase → AnimusWithVariants → AnimusWithStates → AnimusWithSystem → AnimusWithAll`. Each class adds one generic parameter and exposes the next method in the chain. The `T` (Theme) generic was recently removed, freeing headroom. Current deepest generic signature has 7 type parameters.
+
+The cascade contract: `@layer global, base, variants, states, system, custom`. Each builder method maps to a layer. Compounds need a new layer between variants and states.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Add `.compound()` to the builder chain between `.variant()` and `.states()`
+- Zero TypeScript type depth increase — `.compound()` returns `this`, no new generic
+- Full extraction support: chain walking, style evaluation, CSS generation, runtime resolution
+- Cascade-correct: `@layer compounds` overrides individual variants, overridden by states/system/custom
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Responsive compound activation (e.g., compound active only at md breakpoint) — deferred, combinatorially complex
+- Compound conditions referencing states — states aren't defined yet at compound position in the chain
+- Compound conditions referencing system props or custom props — these are runtime-dynamic, not statically enumerable
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. `.compound()` returns `this` — zero type depth cost
+
+`.compound()` is defined on `AnimusWithVariants` (and the new `AnimusWithCompounds`), and returns `this`. Compound data is stored at the value level (an array on the instance), not the type level.
+
+```ts
+compound<Props extends AbstractProps>(
+  condition: { [K in keyof Variants]?: keyof Variants[K]['variants'] },
+  styles: ThemedCSSProps<Props, PropRegistry>
+): this
+```
+
+**Why not a new generic parameter:**
+- Adding `Compounds` as a generic would push the chain to 8+ parameters at the deepest level
+- Compound conditions are already fully constrained by the `Variants` generic — TypeScript validates condition keys and values against accumulated variants
+- Consumers never interact with compound types directly — they use variant props, and compounds apply automatically
+- The value-level array is sufficient for extraction (chain walker reads it) and runtime (config includes it)
+
+**Why `this` return:**
+- Multiple `.compound()` calls chain naturally: `.compound(c1, s1).compound(c2, s2).states({...})`
+- No new class needed in the inheritance chain if AnimusWithVariants defines `.compound()` directly
+- `.states()` still works after `.compound()` because it's inherited from the same class
+
+Alternative considered: new `AnimusWithCompounds` class. Rejected because it adds a class, a constructor, and a generic slot for zero type-safety benefit. The condition is already fully constrained by `Variants`. However, if strict chain ordering is needed (prevent calling `.compound()` after `.states()`), a thin wrapper class that just returns `this` from `.compound()` and exposes `.states()` would work — same zero-cost pattern but with ordering enforcement.
+
+### 2. New `@layer compounds` in cascade
+
+Layer declaration becomes: `@layer global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom`
+
+**Why a separate layer instead of emitting within `@layer variants`:**
+- Each builder method maps to a layer — this is the cascade contract principle
+- Source ordering within `@layer variants` is fragile — a later-declared individual variant could accidentally override a compound
+- Explicit layer makes the cascade behavior predictable regardless of emission order
+- Consistent with the existing pattern: each chain stage has its own layer
+
+**CSS class naming:** `animus-ComponentName-hash--compound-{index}` where index is the 0-based position in the compounds array. Index-based (not condition-based) because condition serialization would produce unwieldy class names.
+
+### 3. Runtime resolution via condition matching
+
+The `createComponent` config gains a `compounds` array:
+
+```js
+{
+  compounds: [
+    { conditions: { size: "sm", variant: "ghost" }, className: "animus-Btn-hash--compound-0" },
+    { conditions: { size: "lg", variant: "fill" }, className: "animus-Btn-hash--compound-1" },
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Resolution: iterate the array, check if ALL condition key/value pairs match the current variant prop values, add the className for every matching compound. Multiple compounds can match simultaneously (they're independent rules).
+
+**Why array iteration over hash map:**
+- Compound conditions are multi-key — they can't be indexed by a single key
+- The array is typically small (1-5 entries per component)
+- Linear scan of a small array is faster than building and querying a multi-key index
+
+### 4. Extraction: chain walker recognizes `.compound()` as a new stage type
+
+The chain walker adds `"compound"` to `CHAIN_METHODS`. Each `.compound()` call produces a stage with two spans: the condition object and the styles object. The style evaluator processes compound styles identically to variant styles (same ThemedCSSProps resolution). The CSS generator emits compound rules into `@layer compounds`.
+
+### 5. Extension inherits parent compounds
+
+When B extends A and A has compounds, B inherits A's compounds. If B defines its own compounds, they're appended after A's compounds within `@layer compounds`. Source ordering within the layer means B's compounds override A's when conditions overlap — correct cascade behavior for extensions.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[New @layer in cascade declaration is a breaking change]** → Any consumer that hardcodes the layer declaration string would break. Mitigation: no external consumers yet (greenfield). The layer declaration is generated by the plugin, not authored by consumers.
+
+**[Compound conditions are partial matches]** → A compound `{ size: 'sm' }` (omitting variant) matches ALL visual variants when size=sm. This is intentional — partial conditions are useful for "apply to all visual variants when size is sm." But it could surprise authors who expect full-match semantics. Mitigation: document clearly. Could add a strict-match option later if needed.
+
+**[Multiple compounds can match simultaneously]** → If compound A matches `{ size: 'sm', variant: 'ghost' }` and compound B matches `{ size: 'sm' }`, BOTH apply when size=sm and variant=ghost. B's styles apply first (lower index), A's override (higher index). This is correct but could be confusing. Mitigation: compounds are applied in definition order, so later `.compound()` calls take precedence.
+
+**[No responsive compound activation]** → If variant selection becomes responsive in the future, compound matching would need breakpoint-awareness. Mitigation: deferred by design. Static-only compounds are a clean first step.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- Should we enforce that compound conditions reference at least 2 variant axes? Single-axis conditions (`{ size: 'sm' }`) are equivalent to adding styles to the sm variant option itself — but in a higher layer. This could be useful (override without modifying the variant definition) or confusing (two places to look for size=sm styles).

+## Why
+
+Any component with two or more variant axes (size × visual style, layout × density) encounters the specificity matrix problem: certain combinations need style overrides that neither individual variant can express alone. Ghost + xs needs zero padding, but ghost + lg needs padding — there's no way to express this today without leaking combination logic into consumer code. Compound variants are a well-established pattern (Stitches, CVA) and a prerequisite for production design system components.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **New `.compound()` builder method** between `.variant()` and `.states()` in the type-state machine chain. Takes a condition object (which variant values must be active) and a styles object (the override CSS). Chainable — multiple `.compound()` calls accumulate.
+- **New `@layer compounds`** in the cascade between `variants` and `states`: `@layer global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom`. **BREAKING** — existing `@layer` declarations gain a new layer.
+- **New `AnimusWithCompounds` class** as a proper type-state step between `AnimusWithVariants` and `AnimusWithStates`. `.compound()` returns `new AnimusWithCompounds(...)` — never polymorphic `this` (which causes tsc infinite expansion). Once in the compounds phase, `.variant()` is unavailable — ordering enforced by the type system.
+- **Rust extraction support** — chain walker recognizes `.compound()`, style evaluator resolves compound styles, CSS generator emits `@layer compounds`, transform emitter includes compounds in `createComponent` config.
+- **Runtime compound resolution** — `createComponent` checks compound conditions against current variant prop values, applies matching compound classNames.
+
+## Compound Condition Arrays (v2)
+
+Array values in compound conditions — match ANY variant in the array. Precedent: Stitches, CVA, Panda CSS.
+
+```typescript
+// Match when variant is 'solid' OR 'subtle', AND size is 'sm'
+.compound({ variant: ['solid', 'subtle'], size: 'sm' }, { padding: 2 })
+```
+
+- **Type surface**: condition values widen from `keyof Variants[K]['variants']` to `keyof Variants[K]['variants'] | ReadonlyArray<keyof Variants[K]['variants']>`.
+- **Semantics**: arrays are matching convenience, not CSS multiplication. One compound entry → one class → one set of styles. The array widens the condition, it does not generate N rules.
+- **Runtime**: `Array.isArray(expected) ? expected.includes(current) : current === expected`.
+- **Rust**: condition values stored as `serde_json::Value` — strings serialize as strings, arrays serialize as arrays. No special casing in CSS generation (one class per compound, always).
+- **Transform emitter**: conditions emitted directly as JSON — `{"variant":["solid","subtle"],"size":"sm"}`.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `compound-variants`: The `.compound()` builder method, its type constraints, compound condition matching, `@layer compounds` CSS generation, and runtime class resolution.
+- `compound-condition-arrays`: Array values in compound conditions for multi-variant matching.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `builder-chain`: New `AnimusWithCompounds` class between `AnimusWithVariants` and `AnimusWithStates`. Chain ordering enforced by type-state machine.
+- `extraction-runtime-shim`: `createComponent` config gains `compounds` array. Runtime iterates compounds, checks condition match (string equality or array includes), applies classNames.
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: Chain walker recognizes `.compound()` method calls. Style evaluator processes compound style objects. CSS generator emits `@layer compounds`. Condition values support string or array.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Layer declaration updated to include `compounds`.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **packages/system/src/Animus.ts** — New `AnimusWithCompounds` class, `.compound()` method on `AnimusWithVariants`, chain rewiring
+- **packages/system/src/types/config.ts** — `CompoundEntry` type definition
+- **packages/system/src/runtime/index.ts** — Compound condition matching in `createComponent`
+- **packages/system/__tests__/types.test-d.tsx** — Type regression tests for compound conditions
+- **packages/extract/src/chain_walker.rs** — Recognize `.compound()` in chain walking
+- **packages/extract/src/style_evaluator.rs** — Evaluate compound style objects
+- **packages/extract/src/css_generator.rs** — Emit `@layer compounds` with compound rules
+- **packages/extract/src/transform_emitter.rs** — Include compounds in replacement config
+- **packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts** — Update layer declaration string
+- **Cascade contract** — All existing CSS gains a new layer in the declaration. Existing styles unaffected (new layer is empty until used).

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Progressive type accumulation via 8 generic parameters
+The builder chain SHALL maintain the current generic parameter count (7 after T removal). The `.compound()` method SHALL NOT add a new generic parameter — it returns `this` and stores compound data at the value level. The chain ordering SHALL be:
+
+```
+Animus<PR, GR>

+          → AnimusWithAll<PR, GR, BS, V, S, AG, CustomProps>
+```
+
+#### Scenario: Type parameters carry style values
+- **WHEN** a component is created via `ds.styles({ color: 'primary', p: 8 })`
+- **THEN** the BaseStyles generic SHALL capture the specific prop types, and theme-aware types SHALL constrain `'primary'` to be a valid scale key
+
+#### Scenario: Variant types accumulate across multiple calls
+- **WHEN** `.variant()` is called multiple times in an extension chain
+- **THEN** variant types SHALL merge, and theme-aware types SHALL be preserved across all variant type accumulations
+
+#### Scenario: Compound does not increase type depth
+- **WHEN** `.compound()` is called one or more times after `.variant()`
+- **THEN** the returned type SHALL be the same `AnimusWithVariants` instance type — no additional generic parameter or class instantiation

+- **THEN** both compounds SHALL be stored in definition order (index 0 and index 1)
+
+#### Scenario: Compound condition keys constrained to variant props
+- **WHEN** a builder chain has variants `size` and `variant` defined, and `.compound({ size: 'sm', color: 'red' }, {...})` is called
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL report a type error because `color` is not a key in the accumulated Variants
+
+#### Scenario: Compound condition values constrained to variant options
+- **WHEN** a builder chain has variant `size` with options `sm | md | lg`, and `.compound({ size: 'xl' }, {...})` is called
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL report a type error because `'xl'` is not a valid option for `size`
+
+#### Scenario: Compound is callable before states
+- **WHEN** a builder chain includes `.variant({...}).compound({...}, {...}).states({...})`
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL compile and produce a valid component
+
+#### Scenario: Compound styles use ThemedCSSProps
+- **WHEN** a compound styles object includes `{ bg: 'primary', padding: '{space.4}' }`
+- **THEN** the styles SHALL be resolved through the same theme scale and token alias pipeline as variant and base styles
+
+### Requirement: Compound variant CSS generation
+The CSS generator SHALL emit compound variant rules into `@layer compounds`. Each compound SHALL produce one class rule with a deterministic class name following the pattern `animus-{ComponentName}-{hash}--compound-{index}`.
+
+#### Scenario: Single compound CSS output
+- **WHEN** a component has one compound `{ size: 'sm', variant: 'ghost' }` with styles `{ padding: 0 }`
+- **THEN** the CSS SHALL contain `@layer compounds { .animus-Btn-hash--compound-0 { padding: 0; } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple compounds CSS output
+- **WHEN** a component has two compounds at indices 0 and 1
+- **THEN** both SHALL appear within `@layer compounds`, with index-1 rules after index-0 rules (later definition wins on overlap)
+
+#### Scenario: Compound with pseudo-selectors
+- **WHEN** a compound styles object contains `{ '&:hover': { opacity: 0.8 } }`
+- **THEN** the CSS SHALL contain `.animus-Btn-hash--compound-0:hover { opacity: 0.8; }` within `@layer compounds`
+
+#### Scenario: Compound with responsive values
+- **WHEN** a compound styles object contains `{ padding: { _: 2, md: 8 } }` with theme `{ "space.2": "0.125rem", "space.8": "0.5rem" }`
+- **THEN** the CSS SHALL contain the base value and a `@media` query within `@layer compounds`
+
+### Requirement: Compound variant runtime resolution
+At render time, the runtime SHALL iterate the component's `compounds` array and check each compound's conditions against the current variant prop values. For each compound where ALL condition key/value pairs match, the compound's className SHALL be added to the element's class list.
+
+#### Scenario: Matching compound applied
+- **WHEN** a component has compound `{ conditions: { size: "sm", variant: "ghost" }, className: "cls-0" }` and receives props `size="sm" variant="ghost"`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL include `cls-0` in its className
+
+#### Scenario: Non-matching compound not applied
+- **WHEN** a component has compound `{ conditions: { size: "sm", variant: "ghost" }, className: "cls-0" }` and receives props `size="lg" variant="ghost"`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL NOT include `cls-0` in its className
+
+#### Scenario: Partial condition match
+- **WHEN** a component has compound `{ conditions: { size: "sm" }, className: "cls-0" }` and receives props `size="sm" variant="fill"`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL include `cls-0` — partial conditions match when all specified keys match, regardless of unspecified keys
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple compounds match simultaneously
+- **WHEN** a component has compounds `[{ conditions: { size: "sm" }, className: "cls-0" }, { conditions: { size: "sm", variant: "ghost" }, className: "cls-1" }]` and receives `size="sm" variant="ghost"`
+- **THEN** both `cls-0` and `cls-1` SHALL be in the className — both conditions are satisfied
+
+#### Scenario: Compound with default variant
+- **WHEN** variant `variant` has `defaultVariant: "fill"` and compound condition is `{ variant: "fill" }` and component is rendered without a `variant` prop
+- **THEN** the compound SHALL match — the default value is used for condition matching
+
+#### Scenario: No compounds defined
+- **WHEN** a component has no `compounds` in its config
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL skip compound resolution entirely — no performance cost
+
+### Requirement: Cascade layer ordering
+The CSS layer declaration SHALL include `compounds` between `variants` and `states`: `@layer global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom`. This ensures compound rules override individual variant rules, and state rules override compound rules.
+
+#### Scenario: Compound overrides variant
+- **WHEN** variant `size=sm` sets `padding: 4px` in `@layer variants` and compound `{ size: 'sm', variant: 'ghost' }` sets `padding: 0` in `@layer compounds`
+- **THEN** when both conditions are active, the compound's `padding: 0` SHALL win
+
+#### Scenario: State overrides compound
+- **WHEN** compound `{ size: 'sm', variant: 'ghost' }` sets `opacity: 1` in `@layer compounds` and state `loading` sets `opacity: 0.5` in `@layer states`
+- **THEN** when the compound matches AND loading is active, the state's `opacity: 0.5` SHALL win
+
+#### Scenario: System prop overrides compound
+- **WHEN** compound sets `padding: 0` in `@layer compounds` and system prop `p={8}` produces a utility class in `@layer system`
+- **THEN** the system prop SHALL win — `@layer system` has higher precedence
+
+### Requirement: Extension inheritance of compounds
+When a component B extends component A, B SHALL inherit A's compounds. If B defines its own compounds, they SHALL be appended after A's compounds. Within `@layer compounds`, later-defined rules take precedence via source ordering.
+
+#### Scenario: Extension inherits parent compounds
+- **WHEN** A has compound `{ size: 'sm', variant: 'ghost' }` and B extends A without defining compounds
+- **THEN** B SHALL include A's compound in its config and CSS output
+
+#### Scenario: Extension overrides parent compound
+- **WHEN** A has compound at index 0 and B extends A and defines its own compound at index 1 with overlapping conditions
+- **THEN** B's compound (higher index, later in source) SHALL override A's when both match

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Compound variant resolution in createComponent
+The `createComponent` runtime SHALL accept an optional `compounds` array in the config object. Each entry SHALL have `conditions` (a `Record<string, string>` mapping variant prop names to expected values) and `className` (the compound class to apply). At render time, the runtime SHALL iterate the array and apply each matching compound's className.
+
+#### Scenario: Config with compounds
+- **WHEN** `createComponent('button', 'animus-Btn-hash', { variants: {...}, compounds: [{ conditions: { size: "sm", variant: "ghost" }, className: "animus-Btn-hash--compound-0" }] })` creates a component
+- **THEN** the component SHALL check compound conditions at render time
+
+#### Scenario: Compound class applied after variant classes
+- **WHEN** a component has variants and compounds, and both match at render time
+- **THEN** the className order SHALL be: base class, variant classes, compound classes, state classes — reflecting cascade layer order
+
+#### Scenario: Compound props filtered from DOM
+- **WHEN** compound conditions reference prop `size` and prop `variant`
+- **THEN** these props SHALL already be filtered by the existing variant prop filtering — no additional filtering needed for compounds
+
+#### Scenario: No compounds in config
+- **WHEN** config does not include a `compounds` field
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL skip compound resolution with zero overhead

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Chain walker recognizes compound stage
+The chain walker SHALL recognize `.compound()` as a valid chain method. Each `.compound()` call SHALL produce a stage entry with two argument spans: the condition object expression and the styles object expression. Multiple `.compound()` calls SHALL produce multiple stage entries.
+
+#### Scenario: Walk chain with single compound
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).variant({...}).compound({ size: 'sm' }, { padding: 0 }).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with stages `styles`, `variants`, and one `compound` entry containing condition and styles spans
+
+#### Scenario: Walk chain with multiple compounds
+- **WHEN** source contains `.compound({...}, {...}).compound({...}, {...})`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce two `compound` stage entries in definition order
+
+#### Scenario: Compound without prior variant bails
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).compound({...}, {...}).asElement('div')` with no `.variant()` call
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL still be walkable — compound conditions will simply never match at runtime (empty variants object). No bail needed.
+
+### Requirement: Style evaluator processes compound styles
+The style evaluator SHALL process compound style objects identically to variant and base style objects — using the same `ThemedCSSProps` resolution pipeline including theme scale lookup, token alias resolution, and transform deferral.
+
+#### Scenario: Evaluate compound styles with scale lookup
+- **WHEN** a compound styles object contains `{ padding: 4 }` and prop `padding` has scale `space` with `{ "space.4": "0.25rem" }`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL resolve to `{ padding: 0.25rem }`
+
+#### Scenario: Evaluate compound styles with token alias
+- **WHEN** a compound styles object contains `{ border: '1px solid {colors.primary}' }`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL resolve the token alias to `var(--colors-primary)`
+
+### Requirement: CSS generator emits @layer compounds
+The CSS generator SHALL emit compound variant rules into a dedicated `@layer compounds { }` block. Compound rules SHALL be emitted after `@layer variants` and before `@layer states` in the CSS output. Each compound SHALL produce one class rule with naming pattern `animus-{ComponentName}-{hash}--compound-{index}`.
+
+#### Scenario: Compound CSS in correct layer
+- **WHEN** a component has base styles, variants, compounds, and states
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `@layer base {...}`, `@layer variants {...}`, `@layer compounds {...}`, `@layer states {...}` in that order
+
+#### Scenario: Compound class naming
+- **WHEN** a component `Button` with hash `a1b2c3d4` has a compound at index 0
+- **THEN** the class name SHALL be `animus-Button-a1b2c3d4--compound-0`
+
+### Requirement: Transform emitter includes compounds in config
+The transform emitter SHALL include a `compounds` array in the `createComponent` config when the component has compound definitions. Each entry SHALL contain `conditions` (the condition object as-is) and `className` (the generated compound class name).
+
+#### Scenario: Emitted config includes compounds
+- **WHEN** a component has two compounds
+- **THEN** the emitted `createComponent` call SHALL include `compounds: [{ conditions: { size: "sm", variant: "ghost" }, className: "animus-Btn-hash--compound-0" }, { conditions: { size: "lg", variant: "fill" }, className: "animus-Btn-hash--compound-1" }]`
+
+#### Scenario: No compounds emits no field
+- **WHEN** a component has no `.compound()` calls
+- **THEN** the emitted config SHALL NOT include a `compounds` field

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: @layer declaration order
+The CSS output SHALL begin with `@layer global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom;` to establish layer precedence. The `compounds` layer is inserted between `variants` and `states`.
+
+#### Scenario: Layer declaration includes compounds
+- **WHEN** any extraction produces CSS
+- **THEN** the layer declaration SHALL be `@layer global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom;`
+
+#### Scenario: Empty compounds layer is harmless
+- **WHEN** no component in the project uses `.compound()`
+- **THEN** the `compounds` layer SHALL still appear in the declaration but have no rules — this is valid CSS and has no effect on cascade behavior

+## Context
+
+Every comparable CSS-in-JS framework provides a standalone style utility for one-off class generation. Animus currently requires a full builder chain ending in `.asElement()` — producing a React component even when you just want a className.
+
+The insight: this isn't a new API. It's a new **terminal** on the existing builder chain. The chain already encodes styles, variants, states, compounds, groups. The terminal determines what comes out.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- `.asClass()` terminal on the builder chain — same chain, different output shape
+- Always returns a callable function: `() => string` (static) or `(props) => string` (dynamic)
+- Full cascade contract preserved — `.styles()` → `@layer base`, `.variant()` → `@layer variants`, etc.
+- All chain methods work: styles, variants, states, compounds, groups, props
+- Static extraction via Rust crate — optimizable to string literal at call sites
+- Framework-agnostic — no React dependency
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Callable strings / dual string+function return types (JS can't)
+- Tagged template literal syntax (awkward for options objects)
+- New chain methods or new concepts
+
+## The API
+
+### Static usage (no dynamic aspects)
+
+```ts
+const card = ds
+  .styles({ display: 'flex', p: 16, bg: 'surface', borderRadius: 4 })
+  .asClass()
+
+// Always called — returns className string
+<div className={card()} />
+```
+
+### With variants
+
+```ts
+const button = ds
+  .styles({ display: 'inline-flex', cursor: 'pointer' })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'size',
+    variants: {
+      sm: { p: 4, fontSize: 14 },
+      lg: { p: 16, fontSize: 18 },
+    },
+  })
+  .asClass()
+
+<button className={button({ size: 'lg' })} />
+```
+
+### With states
+
+```ts
+const panel = ds
+  .styles({ overflow: 'hidden' })
+  .states({ open: { maxHeight: '500px' }, disabled: { opacity: '0.5' } })
+  .asClass()
+
+<div className={panel({ open: true })} />
+```
+
+### With groups (system props)
+
+```ts
+const box = ds
+  .styles({ display: 'flex' })
+  .groups({ space: true, layout: true })
+  .asClass()
+
+<div className={box({ p: 16, m: 8, display: 'grid' })} />
+```
+
+### Full chain
+
+```ts
+const widget = ds
+  .styles({ display: 'flex' })
+  .variant({ prop: 'variant', variants: { ghost: { opacity: '0.8' } } })
+  .states({ loading: { opacity: '0.5' } })
+  .compound({ variant: 'ghost', loading: true }, { display: 'none' })
+  .groups({ space: true })
+  .asClass()
+
+<div className={widget({ variant: 'ghost', loading: true, p: 8 })} />
+```
+
+### Composition
+
+className concatenation. No special merge API:
+
+```tsx
+<div className={`${card()} ${box({ p: 16 })}`} />
+```
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Always callable
+
+`.asClass()` always returns a function. Static usage: `card()`. Dynamic usage: `button({ size: 'lg' })`.
+
+**Why not conditional return type (string vs function)?** The conditional type is possible via the type-state machine, but:
+- Adds complexity to already-complex builder types
+- Creates two consumption patterns consumers must learn
+- Extraction can optimize `card()` → `"animus-card-abc"` at the call site anyway
+
+Always callable = one pattern, simpler types, extraction-optimizable.
+
+### 2. Same chain, different terminal
+
+`.asClass()` sits alongside `.asElement()` and `.asComponent()` as a terminal method. The chain is identical — only the output shape differs.
+
+| Terminal | Output | React dependency |
+|---|---|---|
+| `.asElement('div')` | React component | Yes |
+| `.asComponent(Base)` | Extended React component | Yes |
+| `.asClass()` | `(props?) => string` | No |
+
+### 3. Cascade contract preserved
+
+The terminal does not affect WHERE styles go — only WHAT comes out. Layer assignment is determined by chain methods:
+- `.styles()` → `@layer base`
+- `.variant()` → `@layer variants`
+- `.states()` → `@layer states`
+- `.compound()` → `@layer compounds`
+- `.groups()` → `@layer system`
+
+### 4. Framework-agnostic
+
+`.asClass()` returns a plain function. No React, no JSX, no hooks. Works in Svelte, Vue, vanilla JS, server-side rendering, anywhere you can set a class attribute.
+
+## Runtime Implementation
+
+The returned function is `createComponent` minus `React.createElement`:
+
+```ts
+function createClassResolver(
+  baseClassName: string,
+  variantConfig?: VariantConfig,
+  stateConfig?: StateConfig,
+  compoundConfig?: CompoundConfig,
+  systemPropMap?: SystemPropMap,
+  dynamicPropConfig?: DynamicPropConfig
+): (props?: Record<string, unknown>) => string
+```
+
+Resolves variant classes, state toggles, compound matches, system prop utilities — returns concatenated className string. All logic already exists in `createComponent`; this factors it out.
+
+## Extraction
+
+### Static chains (no variants/states/groups)
+
+Rust replaces the `.asClass()` chain with a `createClassResolver` call with only a base className. The extractor MAY further optimize call sites: `card()` → `"animus-card-abc"` (inline string literal, zero runtime).
+
+### Dynamic chains
+
+Rust replaces with `createClassResolver(base, variantConfig, ...)` — same shape as `createComponent` replacement but without the element/React wrapper.
+
+### Class naming
+
+Same pattern as components:
+- Dev: `animus-{variableName}-{positionHash}` (stable across edits for HMR)
+- Prod: `animus-{variableName}-{contentHash}` (optimal caching)
+
+Variable name inferred from AST (same as component name inference).
+
+## Type Signature
+
+```ts
+// On the builder chain (simplified)
+asClass(): (props: InferredProps) => string
+
+// Where InferredProps is derived from the chain's accumulated generics:
+// - Variant props (from .variant() calls)
+// - State booleans (from .states() calls)
+// - System props (from .groups() calls)
+// - Dynamic props (from .props() calls)
+// If none of the above: empty object (call with no args)
+```
+
+## Implementation Scope
+
+### TypeScript (system package)
+- Add `.asClass()` terminal to builder chain types (Animus.ts, AnimusExtended.ts)
+- Factor className resolution out of `createComponent` → `createClassResolver`
+- Export `createClassResolver` from system package
+
+### Rust (extract crate)
+- Recognize `.asClass()` as a terminal in `chain_walker.rs`
+- Emit `createClassResolver` call instead of `createComponent` in `transform_emitter.rs`
+- CSS generation unchanged — same pipeline as `.asElement()`
+
+### Vite plugin
+- No changes needed — `.asClass()` chains are extracted alongside component chains
+
+### Tests
+- Type tests: `.asClass()` compiles, return type is function, props inferred correctly
+- Unit tests: `createClassResolver` produces correct classNames for variant/state/compound/group combos
+- Canary tests: `.asClass()` chain extracts correctly, CSS emitted to correct layers

+## Why
+
+Every comparable CSS-in-JS framework (Stitches, Panda, Vanilla Extract, StyleX, Chakra) provides a way to generate a className without creating a React component. Animus requires `.asElement()` or `.asComponent()` — producing a React component even for one-off styles. This is a DX gap and unnecessarily couples all style output to React.
+
+The key insight: we don't need a new API. The builder chain already encodes everything. We just need a new terminal — `.asClass()` — that outputs a callable function returning className strings instead of a React component.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- New terminal method `.asClass()` on the builder chain, available at all positions where `.asElement()` is available
+- Always returns `(props?) => string` — a callable function that resolves to a className
+- New runtime export `createClassResolver` — factored from existing `createComponent` logic, minus React.createElement
+- Rust extraction recognizes `.asClass()` as a terminal, emits `createClassResolver()` calls instead of `createComponent()`
+- CSS generation unchanged — same pipeline, same `@layer` assignment
+- **Framework-agnostic** — `.asClass()` output has no React dependency
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `as-class-terminal`: Builder chain terminal that produces a callable className resolver instead of a React component. Covers: return type, prop inference, runtime resolution, extraction transform, class naming, HMR.
+- `class-resolver-runtime`: Standalone className resolution function extracted from createComponent. Covers: variant class lookup, state toggling, compound matching, system prop resolution — without React.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `builder-chain`: New terminal method `.asClass()` added to all post-`.styles()` type-state positions alongside `.asElement()` and `.asComponent()`
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: Chain walker recognizes `.asClass()` terminal; transform emitter produces `createClassResolver` calls
+- `extraction-runtime-shim`: New export `createClassResolver` alongside existing `createComponent`
+
+## Impact
+
+- **system package**: New `createClassResolver` runtime function, `.asClass()` method on builder types (Animus.ts, AnimusExtended.ts)
+- **extract crate**: `chain_walker.rs` (terminal recognition), `transform_emitter.rs` (emit shape)
+- **Type system**: Return type inference for `.asClass()` based on chain generics

+## `.asClass()` Terminal — Specification
+
+### Builder Chain Terminal
+
+`.asClass()` is a terminal method on the builder chain, alongside `.asElement()` and `.asComponent()`. It returns a callable function that resolves to a className string.
+
+**Available at the same chain positions as `.asElement()`:**
+- After `.styles()`
+- After `.variant()`
+- After `.states()`
+- After `.compound()`
+- After `.groups()`
+- After `.props()`
+
+**Not available:**
+- Before `.styles()` (must have at least base styles)
+- After another terminal (`.asElement()`, `.asComponent()`, `.asClass()`)
+
+### Return Type
+
+Always `(props?: InferredProps) => string`.
+
+`InferredProps` is the union of:
+- Variant props: `{ [variantProp]: VariantKey }` for each `.variant()` call
+- State booleans: `{ [stateName]: boolean }` for each key in `.states()`
+- System props: flattened group props for each group in `.groups()`
+- Dynamic props: prop types for each prop in `.props()`
+- Compound conditions do not add props (they use variant/state props)
+
+If the chain has no dynamic aspects (only `.styles()`), `InferredProps` is `{}` — call with no arguments.
+
+### Runtime: `createClassResolver`
+
+**File:** `packages/system/src/createClassResolver.ts` (new)
+
+```ts
+export function createClassResolver(
+  baseClassName: string,
+  config: {
+    variants?: VariantRuntimeConfig[],
+    states?: StateRuntimeConfig,
+    compounds?: CompoundRuntimeConfig[],
+    systemPropMap?: SystemPropMap,
+    dynamicPropConfig?: DynamicPropConfig,
+  }
+): (props?: Record<string, unknown>) => string
+```
+
+**Behavioral contract:**
+
+1. Always includes `baseClassName` in output
+2. For each variant prop present in `props`, appends the matching variant className
+3. For each state boolean `true` in `props`, appends the matching state className
+4. For each compound condition fully matched by `props`, appends the compound className
+5. For system props, looks up utility classNames from `systemPropMap`
+6. For dynamic props, generates inline CSS variable style string (same as createComponent)
+7. Returns space-joined className string
+
+**Note on dynamic props:** When `.props()` is used, the resolver needs to return BOTH a className and an inline style object (for CSS variable bindings). The return type becomes `(props?) => string` for chains without `.props()`, or a richer return for chains with `.props()`. This matches the current `createComponent` split between className and style.
+
+**Simplification:** For v1, `.props()` + `.asClass()` may be deferred. The primary use case is `.styles()` + `.variant()` + `.states()` + `.groups()`. Dynamic props (`.props()`) imply per-instance CSS variable injection which couples to the element — better served by `.asElement()`.
+
+### Extraction: Rust Crate
+
+**File:** `packages/extract/src/chain_walker.rs`
+
+Recognition: `.asClass()` is a terminal, same as `.asElement()` and `.asComponent()`. The chain walker identifies it by method name on the terminal call expression.
+
+**File:** `packages/extract/src/transform_emitter.rs`
+
+Emit shape:
+
+```js
+// Input
+const card = ds.styles({ display: 'flex', p: 16 }).asClass()
+
+// Output (static — no variants/states/groups)
+import { createClassResolver as _cr } from '@animus-ui/system'
+const card = _cr("animus-card-a1b2c3", {})
+
+// Output (dynamic — with variants)
+import { createClassResolver as _cr } from '@animus-ui/system'
+const card = _cr("animus-card-a1b2c3", {
+  variants: [{ prop: "size", default: "md", classes: { sm: "animus-card-a1b2c3--variant-size-sm", lg: "animus-card-a1b2c3--variant-size-lg" } }],
+})
+```
+
+**CSS generation** is identical to `.asElement()` chains — same `css_generator.rs` pipeline, same `@layer` assignment. The terminal does not affect CSS output.
+
+### Class Naming
+
+| Mode | Pattern | Stability |
+|---|---|---|
+| Dev | `animus-{varName}-{positionHash}` | Stable across edits (HMR-safe) |
+| Prod | `animus-{varName}-{contentHash}` | Optimal caching |
+
+Variable name inferred from AST assignment (`const card = ...` → `card`). Same inference logic as component name detection.
+
+### Cascade Contract
+
+Unchanged. Layer assignment by chain method:
+
+| Chain method | CSS Layer |
+|---|---|
+| `.styles()` | `@layer base` |
+| `.variant()` | `@layer variants` |
+| `.compound()` | `@layer compounds` |
+| `.states()` | `@layer states` |
+| `.groups()` | `@layer system` |
+| `.props()` | `@layer custom` |
+
+`.asClass()` does not introduce a new layer or modify layer assignment.
+
+### HMR
+
+Dev mode: `.asClass()` calls the runtime `createClassResolver`. CSS is injected via adopted stylesheets (same as components). On file edit, the vite plugin re-extracts and replaces the adopted stylesheet. Class names are position-hashed (stable), so existing DOM references remain valid.
+
+### Type Tests
+
+**Positive assertions:**
+- `ds.styles({ display: 'flex' }).asClass()` returns `(props?: {}) => string`
+- `ds.styles({}).variant({ prop: 'size', variants: { sm: {}, lg: {} } }).asClass()` — returned function accepts `{ size?: 'sm' | 'lg' }`
+- `ds.styles({}).states({ loading: {} }).asClass()` — returned function accepts `{ loading?: boolean }`
+- `ds.styles({}).groups({ space: true }).asClass()` — returned function accepts space props
+- Full chain: all prop types merged in returned function signature
+
+**Negative assertions:**
+- `ds.asClass()` — error, no `.styles()` called (if enforced by type-state)
+- After `.asElement()`: `.asElement('div').asClass()` — error, terminal already used

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: `.asClass()` terminal produces callable className resolver
+The builder chain SHALL expose `.asClass()` as a terminal method that returns a function of type `(props?: InferredProps) => string`. The function SHALL resolve variant classes, state toggles, compound matches, and system prop utilities into a space-joined className string.
+
+#### Scenario: Static chain produces zero-arg callable
+- **WHEN** a chain with only `.styles()` calls `.asClass()`
+- **THEN** the returned function accepts an empty object or no arguments and returns the base className string
+
+#### Scenario: Chain with variants produces typed callable
+- **WHEN** a chain with `.variant({ prop: 'size', variants: { sm: {...}, lg: {...} } })` calls `.asClass()`
+- **THEN** the returned function accepts `{ size?: 'sm' | 'lg' }` and returns base className plus the matching variant className
+
+#### Scenario: Chain with states produces boolean-accepting callable
+- **WHEN** a chain with `.states({ loading: {...}, disabled: {...} })` calls `.asClass()`
+- **THEN** the returned function accepts `{ loading?: boolean, disabled?: boolean }` and appends state classNames for each `true` value
+
+#### Scenario: Chain with groups produces system-prop-accepting callable
+- **WHEN** a chain with `.groups({ space: true })` calls `.asClass()`
+- **THEN** the returned function accepts space group props (`p`, `m`, `mt`, etc.) and resolves them to utility classNames via the shared system prop map
+
+#### Scenario: Full chain merges all prop types
+- **WHEN** a chain with `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()`, `.compound()`, and `.groups()` calls `.asClass()`
+- **THEN** the returned function accepts the union of variant props, state booleans, and system props, returning a single space-joined className string
+
+### Requirement: `.asClass()` is available at all post-styles chain positions
+The `.asClass()` method SHALL be available as a terminal at every chain position where `.asElement()` is available.
+
+#### Scenario: Available after `.styles()`
+- **WHEN** `.styles({...}).asClass()` is called
+- **THEN** it compiles and returns a callable function
+
+#### Scenario: Available after `.variant()`
+- **WHEN** `.styles({...}).variant({...}).asClass()` is called
+- **THEN** it compiles and returns a callable function with variant props
+
+#### Scenario: Available after `.compound()`
+- **WHEN** `.styles({...}).variant({...}).compound({...}, {...}).asClass()` is called
+- **THEN** it compiles and returns a callable function
+
+#### Scenario: Available after `.states()`
+- **WHEN** a chain ending in `.states({...}).asClass()` is called
+- **THEN** it compiles and returns a callable function with state props
+
+#### Scenario: Available after `.groups()`
+- **WHEN** a chain ending in `.groups({...}).asClass()` is called
+- **THEN** it compiles and returns a callable function with group props
+
+#### Scenario: Not available after another terminal
+- **WHEN** `.asElement('div').asClass()` is written
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce a TypeScript compile error
+
+### Requirement: `.asClass()` output has no React dependency
+The function returned by `.asClass()` SHALL NOT import or reference React, ReactDOM, or any React types. It SHALL be usable in any JavaScript environment.
+
+#### Scenario: Used in non-React context
+- **WHEN** `.asClass()` result is called in a vanilla JS file with no React imports
+- **THEN** it returns a className string without errors
+
+### Requirement: `.asClass()` preserves cascade contract
+CSS generated from `.asClass()` chains SHALL follow the same `@layer` assignment as `.asElement()` chains.
+
+#### Scenario: Styles in base layer
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.styles({ display: 'flex' }).asClass()`
+- **THEN** extracted CSS for `display: flex` SHALL be in `@layer base`
+
+#### Scenario: Variants in variants layer
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.variant({...}).asClass()`
+- **THEN** extracted variant CSS SHALL be in `@layer variants`
+
+#### Scenario: States in states layer
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.states({...}).asClass()`
+- **THEN** extracted state CSS SHALL be in `@layer states`
+
+### Requirement: Class naming follows component conventions
+`.asClass()` chains SHALL use the same naming scheme as `.asElement()` chains.
+
+#### Scenario: Dev mode uses position-based hash
+- **WHEN** in development mode
+- **THEN** class names SHALL be `animus-{variableName}-{positionHash}` for HMR stability
+
+#### Scenario: Prod mode uses content-based hash
+- **WHEN** in production mode
+- **THEN** class names SHALL be `animus-{variableName}-{contentHash}` for caching
+
+#### Scenario: Variable name inferred from AST
+- **WHEN** the chain is assigned to `const card = ds.styles({...}).asClass()`
+- **THEN** the variable name `card` SHALL be used in the class name

+- [x] 3.6 Class naming: same as components (position-hash dev, content-hash prod)
+- [x] 3.7 Reconciler: `.asClass()` chains marked always-rendered (no JSX to detect)
+
+### 4. Type Tests
+- [ ] 4.1-4.6 Deferred — requires typed return (task 2.7)
+
+### 5. Unit Tests
+- [x] 5.1 `createClassResolver` — base class only, returns base on empty call

+- [x] 5.6 `createClassResolver` — default variants applied when prop omitted
+
+### 6. Canary Tests
+- [x] 6.1 Static `.asClass()` chain extracts — CSS in `@layer base`, transform emits `createClassResolver`
+- [x] 6.2 Dynamic `.asClass()` chain extracts — variant CSS in `@layer variants`

+## Why
+
+Custom props defined via `.props()` break on HMR when the component definition file is edited. The responsive object `{ _: 'md', md: 'xxl' }` renders as `[object Object]` after any HMR update to the defining file. Static string values also break — they leak to the DOM as HTML attributes instead of being intercepted by the system prop resolution path.
+
+This is a high-priority bug because it breaks every component using `.props()` during development, requiring a full page refresh after any edit to a component file.
+
+## Root Cause
+
+The Rust per-file extraction cache (`CachedFileResult` in `project_analyzer.rs`) caches JSX usage scan results for unchanged files during incremental HMR analysis. However, custom prop scan results — produced by a separate `scan_jsx()` call — were NOT included in the cache.
+
+When a component definition file changes on HMR:
+1. Consumer files (e.g., `App.tsx`) are cache hits — their source is not re-scanned
+2. The cache-hit path restored `system_prop_usages` but skipped custom prop usages entirely
+3. `all_custom_dynamic_usages` was empty → `per_component_custom_dynamic` was empty
+4. Component's `custom_dynamic_config` was `None` → no scale/transform resolution
+5. Custom prop names were missing from `systemPropNames` → `filterProps` didn't include them
+6. Props leaked to DOM as HTML attributes → React stringified objects as `[object Object]`
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **`CachedFileResult`** gains two new fields: `custom_prop_static: Vec<SystemPropUsage>` and `custom_prop_dynamic: Vec<DynamicPropUsage>`
+- **Phase 1 (cache extraction)**: custom prop data is extracted alongside existing cached fields
+- **JSX scanning cache-hit path**: restores `all_custom_inputs` and `all_custom_dynamic_usages` from cache
+- **JSX scanning cache-miss path**: stores custom prop results per-file for cache storage
+- **Cache storage**: both cache-hit re-insert and cache-miss store include custom prop fields
+
+## Impact
+
+- **packages/extract/src/project_analyzer.rs** — `CachedFileResult` struct, Phase 1 cache extraction, JSX scanning cache-hit/miss paths, cache storage
+
+No changes to the vite plugin, runtime, or TypeScript surface. The fix is entirely within the Rust extraction cache.
+
+## Verification
+
+Reproduced via Playwright:
+1. Start showcase dev server
+2. Navigate to page — Logo renders correctly with slot classes and CSS variables
+3. Edit `Logo.tsx` (component definition) → HMR fires
+4. **Before fix**: `<h1 logosize="[object Object]">` — prop leaked to DOM
+5. **After fix**: `<h1 class="animus-Logo-... animus-dyn-..." style="--animus-logo-size: 64px; ...">` — correct

+- [x] 1.1 Reproduce [object Object] HMR bug with Playwright — navigate, capture baseline, trigger HMR, observe DOM
+- [x] 1.2 Identify trigger: editing component DEFINITION file (Logo.tsx), not consumer file (App.tsx)
+- [x] 1.3 Fetch transformed Logo.tsx from Vite dev server — observe missing `customDynamicConfig` and `logoSize` from `systemPropNames`
+- [x] 1.4 Trace root cause to `project_analyzer.rs` cache-hit path — custom prop scan results not cached or restored
+
+## 2. Fix
+
+- [x] 2.1 Add `custom_prop_static` and `custom_prop_dynamic` fields to `CachedFileResult` struct
+- [x] 2.2 Extract custom prop data from cache in Phase 1 (alongside chains, module info, eval results, jsx usage)
+- [x] 2.3 Restore custom prop data in JSX scanning cache-hit path (extend `all_custom_inputs` and `all_custom_dynamic_usages`)
+- [x] 2.4 Store custom prop scan results per-file during cache-miss path
+- [x] 2.5 Include custom prop fields in cache storage (both cache-hit re-insert and cache-miss store)
+
+## 3. Verification
+
+- [x] 3.1 Build Rust crate (`bun run build:extract`)
+- [x] 3.2 Restart dev server with clean Vite cache
+- [x] 3.3 Verify first load works (Logo renders with correct classes and CSS variables)

+## Context
+
+Scale-backed props with numeric keys (e.g. `m={8}` looking up index `8` in the space scale) currently reject negative values at the type level. If the space scale defines keys `0 | 4 | 8 | 16`, writing `m={-8}` is a TypeScript error because `-8` is not in the union.
+
+Negative margins are legitimate CSS — pull elements, overlap, negative offsets. Every comparable system (Chakra, styled-system, Theme UI) supports negative scale values for margin and positioning props. This is a parity gap.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Type-safe negative scale values for margin and positioning props
+- Runtime scale resolution handles negative numbers (abs for lookup, negate result)
+- Extraction pipeline handles negative numbers identically
+- Opt-in per prop via `negative: true` flag — only props where CSS supports negation
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Negative padding, gap, border-width, or other inherently non-negative CSS properties
+- Negative string scale keys (only numeric keys are negated)
+- Changes to core package types (core retains its own type path)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. `negative` flag on Prop interface
+
+```ts
+export interface Prop extends BaseProperty {
+  scale?: string | MapScale | ArrayScale;
+  negative?: boolean;
+  // ...
+}
+```
+
+Declarative opt-in. The prop definition says whether it supports negation. Only margin and positioning directionals set this flag.
+
+**Why a flag, not a transform?** Negation is a type-level concern (which values are accepted) AND a runtime concern (how values are resolved). A transform only handles runtime. The flag drives both.
+
+### 2. `NegateKeys<T>` type utility
+
+```ts
+type NegateKeys<T> = T extends number
+  ? T extends 0 ? never
+    : `-${T}` extends `${infer N extends number}` ? N : never
+  : never;
+```
+
+Uses TypeScript 4.8+ template literal type inference to produce negated numeric literal unions. `NegateKeys<4 | 8 | 16>` = `-4 | -8 | -16`. Excludes 0 (negative zero is meaningless).
+
+Wired into `ScaleValue` and `ThemedScaleValue` via a conditional helper:
+
+```ts
+type NegativeOf<Config extends Prop, Keys> =
+  Config['negative'] extends true ? NegateKeys<Extract<Keys, number>> : never;
+```
+
+### 3. Runtime resolution: abs-lookup-negate
+
+Both TypeScript (`lookupScaleValue`) and Rust (`resolve_value`) use the same algorithm:
+1. Detect negative numeric value
+2. `abs()` the value for scale lookup
+3. If lookup succeeds, negate the resolved CSS value (prepend `-`)
+4. String values: `"0.5rem"` → `"-0.5rem"`. Numeric: `8` → `-8`.
+
+### 4. Props that opt in
+
+| Group | Props | Rationale |
+|-------|-------|-----------|
+| margin | `m`, `mx`, `my`, `mt`, `mb`, `mr`, `ml` | Negative margins are standard CSS |
+| positioning | `top`, `right`, `bottom`, `left`, `inset` | Negative offsets are standard CSS |
+
+Props that do NOT opt in: padding, gap, border-width, border-radius, font-size, or any other inherently non-negative CSS property.
+
+## Verification
+
+- Type test: `m={-4}` compiles, `p={-4}` errors, `m={-99}` errors (not in scale)
+- Unit test: `lookupScaleValue(-8, 'space', theme)` returns `"-0.5rem"`
+- Canary test: extracted CSS contains `margin: -0.5rem` for `m={-8}`
+- Full pipeline: `bun run verify` green

+## Negative Scale Values — Specification
+
+### Type Layer
+
+**File:** `packages/system/src/types/config.ts`
+
+1. Add `negative?: boolean` to `Prop` interface
+2. Add `NegateKeys<T>` utility type — template literal inference for negated numeric unions
+3. Add `NegativeOf<Config, Keys>` conditional helper
+4. Wire `NegativeOf` into `ScaleValue` and `ThemedScaleValue` theme-scale branches and map-scale branches
+
+**Behavioral contract:**
+- `negative: true` + theme scale with numeric keys `K` → accepts `K | NegateKeys<K>`
+- `negative: true` + inline MapScale with numeric keys → same
+- `negative` unset or false → no change to accepted values
+- ArrayScale branch: no negation support (array scales use membership, not key lookup)
+
+### Prop Config Layer
+
+**File:** `packages/system/src/groups/index.ts`
+
+Props with `negative: true`:
+- `m`, `mx`, `my`, `mt`, `mb`, `mr`, `ml` (margin group)
+- `inset`, `top`, `right`, `bottom`, `left` (positioning group)
+
+All other props: no `negative` flag.
+
+### Runtime Layer
+
+**File:** `packages/core/src/scales/lookupScaleValue.ts`
+
+Algorithm change:
+```
+if value is negative number:
+  lookupVal = Math.abs(value)
+  result = scale lookup with lookupVal
+  if result is number: return -result
+  if result is string: return `-${result}`
+else:
+  existing behavior unchanged
+```
+
+### Extraction Layer
+
+**File:** `packages/extract/src/theme_resolver.rs`
+
+`resolve_value()` changes:
+1. Detect negative `Value::Number` → extract absolute value for lookup
+2. After scale resolution + optional transform, negate the CSS string output
+3. `negate_css_value()` helper: prepend `-`, handle double-negation edge case
+
+`PropConfig` struct: no change needed. The `negative` flag is a TypeScript-only concern — Rust resolves whatever values OXC parsed from source, and negative numbers are valid `Value::Number` values.
+
+### Type Tests
+
+**File:** `packages/system/__tests__/types.test-d.tsx`
+
+Positive assertions:
+- `<SpaceOnly m={-4} />` — negative margin from scale compiles
+- `<SpaceOnly mt={-8} />` — negative individual margin compiles
+- `<SpaceOnly mx={-16} />` — negative axis margin compiles
+
+Negative assertions:
+- `<SpaceOnly m={-99} />` — not in negated scale, errors
+- `<SpaceOnly p={-4} />` — padding has no negative flag, errors
+
+### Runtime Tests
+
+- `lookupScaleValue(-8, 'space', theme)` returns negated resolved value
+- Existing positive lookups unchanged
+
+### Canary Tests
+
+- Component with `m={-8}` extracts to `margin: -0.5rem` (or equivalent)

+## Why
+
+The vite-plugin still references `@animus-ui/core` in two places:
+
+1. **`loadConfig()` fallback** — when no `system` option is provided, the plugin falls back to `require('@animus-ui/core').getExtractConfig()` to load the prop registry and group map.
+2. **`resolve-transforms.ts`** — a standalone subprocess script that imports all 12 prop groups directly from core to build a transform function registry.
+
+Both paths are vestigial. The `system` option (introduced with the system package) provides everything via `serialize()`: `propConfig`, `groupRegistry`, `transforms`, and `globalStyles`. Core is not in the plugin's `package.json` dependencies — it's loaded at runtime via subprocess, creating an implicit, undeclared dependency.
+
+The transform registry is the key issue: transforms are NOT a separate concern. They are carried by the groups themselves. When you call `.addGroup(space)`, that group's props carry their transform functions. `serialize()` extracts them. The core import was a shortcut to get the same data from a static, pre-built registry — but it's the wrong source because it doesn't reflect the user's actual configuration.
+
+Additionally, the in-process `transformRegistry` Map declared at line 569 is **never populated** (no `.set()` calls exist). It's dead code that serves only as a broken fallback.
+
+## What Changes
+
+### vite-plugin/src/index.ts
+
+1. **Remove `loadConfig()` function entirely** — `system` is the only supported config path.
+2. **Remove `configPath`, `config`, and `groupRegistry` options** from `AnimusExtractOptions`. The `system` option replaces all three.
+3. **Remove the `transformRegistry` Map** — never populated, dead weight.
+4. **Remove `resolveTransformPlaceholders()` function** — it calls `resolve-transforms.ts` which imports core. The system resolve script (already generated by `loadSystem()`) handles this.
+5. **Simplify transform resolution in `runAnalysis()`** — always use the system resolve script. No fallback to the legacy path.
+6. **Update option JSDoc comments** — remove references to core auto-import.
+
+### vite-plugin/src/resolve-transforms.ts
+
+**Delete entirely.** Its only purpose is loading transforms from core. The system resolve script generated at `loadSystem()` lines 872-897 already does this correctly from `system.serialize().transforms`.
+
+### extract/src/ (Rust)
+
+**No changes needed.** The Rust crate:
+- Already recognizes both `@animus-ui/core` AND `@animus-ui/system` as valid import sources for builder chains (transform_emitter.rs line 293).
+- Test fixtures that import from `@animus-ui/core` are valid — core is a consumer package that re-exports system. Consumers can still use it.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`** — remove loadConfig, configPath/config/groupRegistry options, transformRegistry Map, resolveTransformPlaceholders
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/resolve-transforms.ts`** — delete
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/dist/resolve-transforms.d.ts`** — will disappear on next build
+
+No changes to runtime, system, extract, core, or any consumer-facing API. Core continues to exist as a consumer convenience package — it's just no longer referenced by the build pipeline.
+
+## Migration
+
+The `system` option is already the documented and recommended path. Anyone using the legacy `configPath` option would need to switch to:
+
+```typescript
+animusExtract({ system: './src/system.ts' })
+```
+
+This was already the only working path for theme-manifest, global styles, custom props, and all features shipped in sessions 11-16.
+
+## Verification
+
+- `bun run verify` — build, test, types, lint
+- `bun run verify:showcase` — full extraction pipeline with showcase build
+- Confirm no `@animus-ui/core` imports remain in vite-plugin source

+## Context
+
+The ThemeBuilder (`createTheme().addScale().addColors().addColorModes().build()`) produces a theme object consumed in two ways: (1) TypeScript module augmentation for type-safe component props, and (2) Vite plugin evaluation for CSS extraction. Path (2) currently reconstructs token metadata by re-flattening the theme and pattern-matching `var(...)` strings in `theme-evaluator.ts`. The Rust crate receives three separate JSON string parameters (`scalesJson`, `variableMapJson`, `configJson`). Layer names are hardcoded in Rust. Class name prefixes are hardcoded to `animus-`. CSS variable names have no configurable prefix.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- ThemeBuilder emits a structured manifest that flows to the plugin and Rust without reconstruction
+- Configurable namespace prefix for CSS variables, class names, and layer names
+- Consumer-controlled `@layer` declaration with enforced internal ordering
+- Color value validation at build time with clear error messages
+- Zero breaking changes to consumer-facing API (`createTheme`, module augmentation, `typeof tokens`)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- W3C Design Token Format (DTCG) alignment — future work, manifest can be retrofitted
+- Token metadata beyond current scope ($description, $extensions)
+- Responsive tokens (breakpoint-scoped values in manifest)
+- General mode mechanism beyond colors (user considers this lower-level API design)
+- Multi-variable rebinding / colorScheme primitive (separate change)
+- Alias chain tracking (alias → alias → value resolution metadata)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Manifest as property, not return shape change
+
+**Choice:** `.build()` returns the same theme object as today. The manifest is exposed as a `.manifest` property on the returned theme.
+
+**Why:** `typeof tokens` is the module augmentation anchor. Changing `.build()` to return `{ theme, manifest }` breaks every consumer's bootstrap file. A property preserves the existing pattern while making the manifest accessible.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- `build({ manifest: true })` — opt-in flag, but complicates the type: return type becomes conditional
+- Separate `.buildManifest()` method — requires calling build twice or splitting concerns unnaturally
+- `build()` returns tuple `[theme, manifest]` — breaks destructuring patterns differently
+
+**Implementation:** ThemeBuilder assembles `ThemeManifest` during `.build()`, attaches it via `Object.defineProperty(theme, 'manifest', { value: manifest, enumerable: false })`. Non-enumerable keeps it out of `JSON.stringify` and spread operations.
+
+### Decision 2: Opaque ThemeManifest type
+
+**Choice:** `ThemeManifest` is a plain interface with no generics:
+```typescript
+interface ThemeManifest {
+  tokenMap: Record<string, string>;       // flat key → raw value
+  variableMap: Record<string, string>;    // flat key → CSS variable name (no var() wrapper)
+  modes: Record<string, Record<string, string>>; // mode name → key → resolved value
+  variableCss: string;                    // pre-built :root + [data-color-mode] CSS
+}
+```
+
+**Why:** The plugin reads manifest at build time as JS values, not TS types. Generic type parameters would add complexity with zero consumer benefit. Opaque is sufficient.
+
+### Decision 3: Consolidated Rust FFI
+
+**Choice:** Replace three JSON parameters (`scalesJson`, `variableMapJson`, `configJson`) with a single `manifestJson` parameter in `analyze_project()` and `transform_file()`. The manifest JSON includes token map, variable map, and extraction config. Prefix is included in the manifest.
+
+**Why:** Cleaner FFI boundary. One deserialization pass in Rust via `serde_json`. Prefix travels alongside the data it modifies rather than as a separate parameter.
+
+**Migration:** Both old and new function signatures exist briefly during implementation. Old signature removed once plugin is updated.
+
+### Decision 4: Prefix applied at two Rust points
+
+**Choice:** Prefix is applied in Rust at exactly two points:
+1. **Variable map pre-processing:** Before the resolution loop, prefix all variable names in the map: `--color-primary` → `--{prefix}-color-primary`. One O(n) pass over the map. Token alias resolution then naturally emits prefixed var() references.
+2. **Class name generation:** Prefix the component identifier before hashing: `{prefix}-Button` instead of `animus-Button`. Hash input changes, but the mechanism is the same.
+
+**Why not in ThemeBuilder?** Prefix is an output concern. The theme's logical token names (`colors.primary`) are prefix-free. The builder shouldn't know about deployment namespacing.
+
+### Decision 5: Layer configuration with enforced ordering
+
+**Choice:** Plugin accepts an optional `layers` array — the complete `@layer` declaration. Plugin identifies which entries are Animus layers (by matching `{prefix}-global`, `{prefix}-base`, etc., or unprefixed names when no prefix). Validates that the 6 Animus layers appear in correct relative order: `global < base < variants < states < system < custom`. Consumer layers can appear before, after, or between any Animus layers.
+
+**Validation:** At `configResolved`, the plugin extracts the Animus layer subsequence from the `layers` array and checks order. If violated, throws with message: `[animus] Invalid layer order: '{prefix}-custom' must come after '{prefix}-system'. Required order: global < base < variants < states < system < custom`.
+
+**No `layers` config:** Current behavior — plugin emits `@layer global, base, variants, states, system, custom;` (or prefixed equivalents).
+
+**Rust receives:** The ordered layer name array. Uses these names in `@layer` blocks instead of hardcoded strings.
+
+### Decision 6: Color validation scope
+
+**Choice:** `addColors()` validates values at runtime. Accepted: hex (`#fff`, `#ff2800`), rgb/rgba, hsl/hsla, oklch, oklab, lch, lab, named CSS colors (`red`, `blue`, etc.), `transparent`, `currentColor`. Rejected: gradients, `inherit`, `initial`, `unset`, objects, numbers (except as part of function syntax), arbitrary strings.
+
+**Type level:** `addColors()` parameter type gains a template literal constraint with `(string & {})` escape hatch:
+```typescript
+type CSSColorValue =
+  | `#${string}`
+  | `rgb(${string})` | `rgba(${string})`
+  | `hsl(${string})` | `hsla(${string})`
+  | `oklch(${string})` | `oklab(${string})`
+  | `lch(${string})` | `lab(${string})`
+  | `color-mix(${string})`
+  | 'transparent' | 'currentColor'
+  | (string & {});
+```
+
+The `(string & {})` ensures future CSS color functions aren't blocked at the type level while still providing autocomplete for known patterns.
+
+**Error messages** include the failing key: `addColors: 'linear-gradient(90deg, red, blue)' is not a valid CSS <color> value for key 'gradient'. Expected hex, rgb(), hsl(), oklch(), named color, transparent, or currentColor.`
+
+**`addColorModes()` validation:** Each alias value must be a key in the current flattened color palette. If not, throws: `addColorModes: mode 'dark' references unknown color 'nonexistent' for alias 'primary'. Available colors: ember, scorch, coal, ...`
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Non-enumerable `.manifest` property may surprise consumers who spread the theme** → Mitigation: Non-enumerable is the correct behavior — spreading a theme into component props shouldn't include a manifest object. Document that `.manifest` exists for plugin consumption.
+
+**[Risk] Rust FFI signature change requires coordinated plugin + crate update** → Mitigation: Ship as a single version bump. The crate and plugin are always released together.
+
+**[Risk] Color validation rejects values that consumers currently use** → Mitigation: `(string & {})` escape hatch at type level. Runtime validation logs warning instead of throwing for the first minor version, upgrades to throw in next major. Actually — since this is pre-RC, throw immediately. No existing consumers to break.
+
+**[Risk] Layer validation may be overly strict** → Mitigation: Validation only checks relative order of Animus layers. Consumer layers are completely unconstrained. The validation error message explains the required order.
+
+**[Trade-off] Manifest duplicates some data from the theme object** → Acceptable. The manifest is ~2-5KB of JSON for a typical theme. The alternative (not duplicating) requires the plugin to understand the theme object's internal structure, which is the fragile coupling we're eliminating.

+## Why
+
+The ThemeBuilder's `.build()` output is an opaque object that discards structured metadata about which tokens are CSS variables, what their variable names are, and how modes map to values. The Vite plugin reconstructs this information by re-flattening the entire theme and pattern-matching `var(...)` strings — a fragile heuristic that should be authoritative data flowing from builder to plugin. Additionally, there's no namespace prefix support, making multi-library composition collision-prone (`--color-primary` from two libraries will collide). Layer names are hardcoded with no way for consumers to integrate Animus layers into their own cascade architecture. Raw color values lack validation, allowing arbitrary strings where CSS color literals are expected.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **ThemeBuilder manifest output**: `.build()` produces a `ThemeManifest` accessible via a `.manifest` property on the built theme object. The manifest contains: flat token map (key→raw value), variable map (key→CSS variable name), mode definitions (mode→key→value), and pre-built variable CSS. This is the **single source of truth** that the plugin passes to Rust — no reconstruction. The `.build()` return type is **unchanged** — `typeof tokens` and module augmentation patterns are not affected.
+- **Plugin consumes manifest directly**: `evaluateThemeObject()` reads the manifest instead of re-flattening and scanning for `var(...)` patterns. The `scalesJson`, `variableMapJson`, and `variableCss` are derived from manifest data, not reverse-engineered. **BREAKING** internal contract between ThemeBuilder and plugin (not consumer-facing). Rust FFI consolidates three JSON string parameters into a single `manifestJson` parameter.
+- **Namespace prefix config**: Plugin accepts a `prefix` option. Flows into three outputs: CSS variable names (`--{prefix}-color-primary`), class names (`.{prefix}-Button-hash`), and layer names (`{prefix}-base`, `{prefix}-variants`, etc.). Applied at extraction time in Rust, not in ThemeBuilder. No prefix = current behavior unchanged.
+- **Consumer-controlled layer declaration**: Plugin accepts an optional `layers` array — the full `@layer` declaration including both Animus layers (prefixed) and consumer layers interleaved. The plugin validates at init that Animus's 6 internal layers appear in the correct relative order (`global < base < variants < states < system < custom`) — the cascade contract is enforced, but consumers can slot their own layers before, after, or between. Without `layers` config, current hardcoded declaration is emitted.
+- **Color value validation**: `addColors()` validates that raw color values are CSS `<color>` literals (hex, rgb/rgba, hsl/hsla, oklch, oklab, named CSS colors, `transparent`, `currentColor`). Rejects gradients, objects, or arbitrary strings. Type-level constraint uses template literal union with `(string & {})` escape hatch for future CSS color functions. `addColorModes()` validates that alias values reference keys that exist in the current color palette. Both throw descriptive errors (including the failing key name) at build time.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `theme-manifest`: Structured manifest output from ThemeBuilder containing token map, variable map, mode definitions, and variable CSS as authoritative data. Opaque type (no generics). Accessible via `.manifest` property on built theme.
+- `namespace-prefix`: Configurable prefix for CSS variable names, class names, and layer names to prevent multi-library collisions. Consumer-controlled layer declaration with enforced internal ordering.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `theme-variable-emission`: Variable CSS generation moves from plugin heuristic to manifest-driven. evaluateThemeObject return shape changes to consume manifest directly.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Plugin gains `prefix` and `layers` options. Theme evaluation consumes manifest instead of re-flattening. Rust FFI consolidates to single manifest parameter.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/system/src/theme/createTheme.ts`**: ThemeBuilder assembles manifest during `.build()`, exposes via `.manifest` property. Color validation in `addColors()` and `addColorModes()`.
+- **`packages/system/src/types/theme.ts`**: New opaque `ThemeManifest` interface exported. Color value type constraint on `addColors()`.
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/theme-evaluator.ts`**: `evaluateThemeObject()` rewritten to read manifest. Eliminates `var()` pattern-matching and re-flattening code paths.
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`**: New `prefix` and `layers` options in `AnimusExtractOptions`. Layer order validation at `configResolved`. Prefix and layer names passed to Rust.
+- **`packages/extract/src/`**: Rust crate receives consolidated manifest JSON + prefix. Prefix applied to class name generation and token alias resolution (variable map pre-prefixed before resolution loop). Layer names received from plugin config instead of hardcoded.
+- **`packages/showcase/src/ds.ts`**: No changes needed — consumer API unchanged.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: CSS variable prefix
+When a `prefix` option is configured, all generated CSS variable names SHALL be prefixed: `--{prefix}-{scale}-{key}` instead of `--{scale}-{key}`.
+
+#### Scenario: Prefixed variable names
+- **WHEN** plugin is configured with `prefix: 'mylib'` and theme has color `ember`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS variable SHALL be `--mylib-color-ember` instead of `--color-ember`
+
+#### Scenario: Token refs resolve to prefixed variables
+- **WHEN** plugin is configured with `prefix: 'mylib'` and source code contains `color: '{colors.ember}'`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `color: var(--mylib-color-ember)`
+
+#### Scenario: No prefix preserves current behavior
+- **WHEN** plugin is configured without a `prefix` option
+- **THEN** all CSS variable names SHALL use the current unprefixed format (`--color-ember`)
+
+### Requirement: Class name prefix
+When a `prefix` option is configured, all generated class names SHALL use the prefix instead of `animus`: `.{prefix}-{Component}-{hash}`.
+
+#### Scenario: Prefixed class names
+- **WHEN** plugin is configured with `prefix: 'mylib'` and a component `Button` is extracted
+- **THEN** the generated class name SHALL be `.mylib-Button-{hash}` instead of `.animus-Button-{hash}`
+
+#### Scenario: No prefix uses default
+- **WHEN** plugin is configured without a `prefix` option
+- **THEN** class names SHALL use the current `animus-` prefix
+
+### Requirement: Layer name prefix
+When a `prefix` option is configured, all `@layer` names SHALL be prefixed: `{prefix}-global`, `{prefix}-base`, etc.
+
+#### Scenario: Prefixed layer names
+- **WHEN** plugin is configured with `prefix: 'mylib'`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS SHALL use `@layer mylib-global, mylib-base, mylib-variants, mylib-states, mylib-system, mylib-custom`
+
+#### Scenario: Layer blocks use prefixed names
+- **WHEN** plugin is configured with `prefix: 'mylib'` and component CSS is generated
+- **THEN** component CSS SHALL be wrapped in `@layer mylib-base { ... }` instead of `@layer base { ... }`
+
+### Requirement: Consumer-controlled layer declaration
+The plugin SHALL accept an optional `layers` array that specifies the complete `@layer` declaration order. Consumers MAY include their own layer names interleaved with Animus layer names.
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer layers interleaved
+- **WHEN** plugin is configured with `prefix: 'mylib'` and `layers: ['reset', 'mylib-global', 'mylib-base', 'app-typography', 'mylib-variants', 'mylib-states', 'mylib-system', 'mylib-custom', 'app-overrides']`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS SHALL begin with `@layer reset, mylib-global, mylib-base, app-typography, mylib-variants, mylib-states, mylib-system, mylib-custom, app-overrides;`
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer layers before and after
+- **WHEN** plugin is configured with `layers: ['reset', 'global', 'base', 'variants', 'states', 'system', 'custom', 'overrides']`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS SHALL include all listed layers in the declaration, with `reset` first and `overrides` last
+
+### Requirement: Layer order enforcement
+When a `layers` array is provided, the plugin SHALL validate at init that the 6 Animus layers appear in their required relative order: `global < base < variants < states < system < custom`. The validation SHALL only check relative order — consumer layers between Animus layers are unconstrained.
+
+#### Scenario: Valid interleaved order accepted
+- **WHEN** `layers: ['reset', 'mylib-global', 'mylib-base', 'app-layer', 'mylib-variants', 'mylib-states', 'mylib-system', 'mylib-custom']`
+- **THEN** the configuration SHALL be accepted without error
+
+#### Scenario: Invalid order rejected
+- **WHEN** `layers: ['mylib-custom', 'mylib-base', 'mylib-global']` (custom before base, base before global)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL throw at `configResolved` with a message explaining the required order
+
+#### Scenario: Missing Animus layers rejected
+- **WHEN** `layers: ['reset', 'mylib-global', 'mylib-base', 'app-overrides']` (missing variants, states, system, custom)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL throw with a message listing the missing required layers
+
+### Requirement: Prefix is output-only
+The `prefix` option SHALL NOT affect token ref syntax, scale key names, or any consumer-facing TypeScript types. Token refs (`{colors.primary}`) remain prefix-free. The prefix is applied at extraction output time only.
+
+#### Scenario: Token refs are prefix-unaware
+- **WHEN** plugin is configured with `prefix: 'mylib'` and source uses `{colors.primary}`
+- **THEN** the token ref syntax in source code SHALL NOT change — `{colors.primary}` resolves to `var(--mylib-color-primary)` at extraction time

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: ThemeManifest structure
+The ThemeBuilder `.build()` method SHALL produce a `ThemeManifest` accessible via a `.manifest` property on the returned theme object. The manifest SHALL contain four fields: `tokenMap` (flat token key → raw value), `variableMap` (flat token key → CSS variable name without `var()` wrapper), `modes` (mode name → flat key → resolved value), and `variableCss` (pre-built CSS string).
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest contains flat token map
+- **WHEN** a theme has `addScale('space', () => ({ 8: '0.5rem', 16: '1rem' }))` and `addColors({ ember: '#FF2800' })`
+- **THEN** `theme.manifest.tokenMap` SHALL contain `{ 'space.8': '0.5rem', 'space.16': '1rem', 'colors.ember': '#FF2800' }`
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest contains variable map
+- **WHEN** a theme has `addColors({ ember: '#FF2800' })` which emits CSS variable `--color-ember`
+- **THEN** `theme.manifest.variableMap` SHALL contain `{ 'colors.ember': '--color-ember' }` (no `var()` wrapper)
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest contains mode definitions
+- **WHEN** a theme has `addColorModes('dark', { dark: { primary: 'ember' }, light: { primary: 'scorch' } })`
+- **THEN** `theme.manifest.modes` SHALL contain `{ dark: { 'colors.primary': '#FF2800' }, light: { 'colors.primary': '#C1121F' } }` with resolved raw values
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest contains pre-built variable CSS
+- **WHEN** a theme has colors and color modes defined
+- **THEN** `theme.manifest.variableCss` SHALL contain the complete CSS string with `:root { ... }` and `[data-color-mode="..."] { ... }` blocks
+
+#### Scenario: Static scales excluded from variable map
+- **WHEN** a theme has `addScale('space', () => ({ 8: '0.5rem' }))` (no CSS variable emission)
+- **THEN** `theme.manifest.variableMap` SHALL NOT contain any entry for `space.8`
+- **AND** `theme.manifest.tokenMap` SHALL contain `{ 'space.8': '0.5rem' }`
+
+### Requirement: Manifest does not affect theme type
+The `.manifest` property SHALL be non-enumerable on the returned theme object. The return type of `.build()` SHALL remain unchanged — `typeof tokens` SHALL produce the same type as before for module augmentation purposes.
+
+#### Scenario: Spread excludes manifest
+- **WHEN** a consumer spreads the theme object `{ ...tokens }`
+- **THEN** the spread result SHALL NOT contain a `manifest` property
+
+#### Scenario: Module augmentation unchanged
+- **WHEN** a consumer writes `type ShowcaseTheme = typeof tokens; declare module '@animus-ui/system' { interface Theme extends ShowcaseTheme {} }`
+- **THEN** the augmented Theme interface SHALL have the same shape as before this change
+
+### Requirement: ThemeManifest type is opaque
+The `ThemeManifest` interface SHALL use no generic type parameters. All fields SHALL use `Record<string, string>` or `Record<string, Record<string, string>>` — no literal key preservation.
+
+#### Scenario: ThemeManifest type definition
+- **WHEN** a consumer imports `ThemeManifest` from `@animus-ui/system`
+- **THEN** the type SHALL be `{ tokenMap: Record<string, string>; variableMap: Record<string, string>; modes: Record<string, Record<string, string>>; variableCss: string }`
+
+### Requirement: Color value validation
+`addColors()` SHALL validate that all color values are valid CSS `<color>` values. Accepted formats: hex, rgb/rgba, hsl/hsla, oklch, oklab, lch, lab, named CSS colors, `transparent`, `currentColor`. Rejected: gradients, `inherit`, `initial`, `unset`, objects, arbitrary non-color strings.
+
+#### Scenario: Valid hex color accepted
+- **WHEN** `addColors({ primary: '#FF2800' })` is called
+- **THEN** the color SHALL be accepted without error
+
+#### Scenario: Valid oklch color accepted
+- **WHEN** `addColors({ primary: 'oklch(0.7 0.15 30)' })` is called
+- **THEN** the color SHALL be accepted without error
+
+#### Scenario: transparent and currentColor accepted
+- **WHEN** `addColors({ overlay: 'transparent', icon: 'currentColor' })` is called
+- **THEN** both values SHALL be accepted without error
+
+#### Scenario: Gradient rejected with descriptive error
+- **WHEN** `addColors({ gradient: 'linear-gradient(90deg, red, blue)' })` is called
+- **THEN** a build-time error SHALL be thrown with message containing the key name `'gradient'` and listing accepted formats
+
+#### Scenario: Object value rejected
+- **WHEN** `addColors({ bad: { nested: 'value' } })` is called
+- **THEN** a build-time error SHALL be thrown
+
+### Requirement: Color mode alias validation
+`addColorModes()` SHALL validate that every alias value references a key that exists in the current flattened color palette.
+
+#### Scenario: Valid alias accepted
+- **WHEN** `addColors({ ember: '#FF2800' })` followed by `addColorModes('dark', { dark: { primary: 'ember' } })`
+- **THEN** the alias SHALL be accepted without error
+
+#### Scenario: Unknown alias rejected with available keys
+- **WHEN** `addColors({ ember: '#FF2800' })` followed by `addColorModes('dark', { dark: { primary: 'nonexistent' } })`
+- **THEN** a build-time error SHALL be thrown with message containing `'nonexistent'`, the mode name `'dark'`, the alias name `'primary'`, and a list of available color keys

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Theme evaluator extracts variables
+The `evaluateThemeObject` function SHALL read from the theme's `.manifest` property directly instead of re-flattening the theme and scanning for `var(...)` patterns. The return shape (`{ scalesJson, variableMapJson, variableCss }`) SHALL be derived from manifest fields: `scalesJson` from `manifest.tokenMap`, `variableMapJson` from `manifest.variableMap`, `variableCss` from `manifest.variableCss`.
+
+#### Scenario: evaluateThemeObject reads manifest
+- **WHEN** `evaluateThemeObject(theme)` is called with a theme that has a `.manifest` property
+- **THEN** it SHALL read `theme.manifest.tokenMap` for scales, `theme.manifest.variableMap` for variable mappings, and `theme.manifest.variableCss` for the CSS string
+- **AND** it SHALL NOT flatten the theme or scan string values for `var(...)` patterns
+
+#### Scenario: evaluateThemeObject return shape unchanged
+- **WHEN** `evaluateThemeObject(theme)` is called
+- **THEN** it SHALL return `{ scalesJson: string, variableMapJson: string, variableCss: string }` — the same shape as before, but sourced from manifest data
+
+#### Scenario: Theme without manifest (backward compat during migration)
+- **WHEN** `evaluateThemeObject(theme)` is called with a theme that has no `.manifest` property
+- **THEN** it SHALL fall back to the current flattening + var() scanning behavior with a deprecation warning

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Plugin factory function
+The plugin factory SHALL accept a `system` option pointing to the module that exports the SystemInstance. Additionally, it SHALL accept optional `targets` (browserslist query string or array), `minify` (boolean), `prefix` (string), and `layers` (string array) options.
+
+#### Scenario: System instance path
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL load that module via a single bun subprocess to obtain tokens, prop config, group registry, and transforms
+
+#### Scenario: Full configuration with prefix and layers
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts', prefix: 'mylib', layers: ['reset', 'mylib-global', 'mylib-base', 'mylib-variants', 'mylib-states', 'mylib-system', 'mylib-custom', 'overrides'] })`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL configure namespace prefixing for CSS variables, class names, and layer names, AND validate the layer order at init
+
+#### Scenario: Default configuration unchanged
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract()` or `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })` with no prefix or layers
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL use unprefixed variable names, `animus-` class name prefix, and the hardcoded `@layer global, base, variants, states, system, custom` declaration — identical to current behavior
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Consolidated Rust FFI
+The plugin SHALL pass theme data to the Rust crate as a single consolidated manifest JSON string instead of separate `scalesJson`, `variableMapJson` parameters. The manifest JSON SHALL include the token map, variable map, prefix, and layer names.
+
+#### Scenario: Single manifest parameter to analyze_project
+- **WHEN** the plugin calls `analyze_project()`
+- **THEN** it SHALL pass a single `manifestJson` string containing `{ tokenMap, variableMap, prefix, layerNames }` alongside the existing `configJson` and `groupRegistryJson` parameters
+
+#### Scenario: Prefix included in manifest
+- **WHEN** plugin is configured with `prefix: 'mylib'`
+- **THEN** the manifest JSON passed to Rust SHALL include `"prefix": "mylib"` and the variable map SHALL contain prefixed variable names (`--mylib-color-ember`)
+
+### Requirement: Layer order validation at init
+The plugin SHALL validate the `layers` configuration at the `configResolved` hook, before `buildStart`.
+
+#### Scenario: Layer validation timing
+- **WHEN** plugin is configured with an invalid `layers` array
+- **THEN** the validation error SHALL be thrown at `configResolved`, not at `buildStart` or later
+
+#### Scenario: Layer validation identifies the violation
+- **WHEN** `layers` contains `['mylib-system', 'mylib-base']` (system before base)
+- **THEN** the error message SHALL identify which layers are out of order: `'mylib-system' must come after 'mylib-base'`

+- [x] 1.5 Export `ThemeManifest` from `packages/system/src/index.ts`
+
+## 2. Color Validation
+
+- [x] 2.1 Implement `isValidCSSColor()` validator — accepts hex, rgb/rgba, hsl/hsla, oklch, oklab, lch, lab, named CSS colors, transparent, currentColor. Rejects gradients, inherit/initial/unset, objects, arbitrary strings
+- [x] 2.2 Wire validation into `addColors()` — throw descriptive error with failing key name and accepted formats

+## Context
+
+Multi-part components (Accordion, Checkbox, Dialog, Card) need coordinated styling across named sub-elements ("slots") from a single variant definition. Panda CSS (`sva()`), Chakra v3 (`defineSlotRecipe()`), and Ark UI all converge on this pattern.
+
+Animus's @layer cascade contract makes this uniquely powerful — each slot is a builder chain with its own cascade position. A parent slot's variant styles predictably override a child slot's base styles. No other framework can guarantee this.
+
+**This is an API-first decision.** How the consumer writes slot recipes matters more than the implementation.
+
+## Status: READY TO IMPLEMENT
+
+Design space explored, persona-reviewed (Panda/Ark, NextUI/TV, VE/StyleX), conclusion reached. The `compose()` utility is the right abstraction — low implementation cost, high optionality, zero extraction changes.
+
+## Key Insight: Slot Recipes Are Not a Styling Primitive
+
+At the styling primitive level (Panda's `sva()`, Tailwind Variants' `tv()`), slot recipes are **className factories** — pure functions that take variant values and return a record of class strings per slot. No React, no context, no components.
+
+Context propagation only appears in the component library layer (Ark UI), not the styling system. This means the styling system's job is to produce per-slot classes; how they reach the DOM is a composition concern.
+
+In Animus, each slot is already a full component (via `.asElement()`). The slot recipe question reduces to: **how do you compose existing components into a coordinated family with shared variant contracts?**
+
+## Conclusion: `compose()` — Enforce, Wire, Seal
+
+### The Pattern
+
+```ts
+// 1. Define slots independently — normal builder chain, full extraction
+const CheckboxRoot = ds.styles({ display: 'flex', gap: 8 })
+  .variant({ prop: 'size', variants: { sm: { gap: 4 }, md: { gap: 8 } } })
+  .asElement('label')
+
+const CheckboxControl = ds.styles({ borderWidth: '1px' })
+  .variant({ prop: 'size', variants: { sm: { w: 20 }, md: { w: 24 } } })
+  .asElement('div')
+
+const CheckboxLabel = ds.styles({ ml: 8 })
+  .variant({ prop: 'size', variants: { sm: { fontSize: 14 }, md: { fontSize: 16 } } })
+  .asElement('span')
+
+// 2. Compose — type-enforce shared variants, wire context, seal output
+const Checkbox = compose({
+  Root: CheckboxRoot,
+  Control: CheckboxControl,
+  Label: CheckboxLabel,
+}, { shared: ['size'] as const })
+
+// 3. Consumer uses composed components
+<Checkbox.Root size="sm">
+  <Checkbox.Control />
+  <Checkbox.Label>Accept terms</Checkbox.Label>
+</Checkbox.Root>
+```
+
+### What `compose()` Does
+
+1. **Enforce** — TypeScript enforces at compile time that every slot component's variant interface includes the shared keys with matching value sets. If `CheckboxLabel` doesn't have a `size` variant, or if its `size` values don't match `CheckboxRoot`'s, the call to `compose()` is a type error. This solves the divergence problem (see Persona Reviews below).
+
+2. **Wire** — Root becomes a React context provider for shared variant props. Child slots become context consumers. The consumer passes `size="sm"` to `Checkbox.Root`; `Checkbox.Control` and `Checkbox.Label` read it from context automatically.
+
+3. **Seal** — The output components (`Checkbox.Root`, `Checkbox.Control`, `Checkbox.Label`) are plain React components, NOT Animus builders. No `.extend()`, no `.variant()`, no further chain. The builder chain is closed at composition time.
+
+### Why Seal?
+
+The compose boundary is a one-way door from builder-land to component-land. This prevents downstream code from adding variants outside the shared contract, which would break the type enforcement.
+
+**To extend a composed component family:** go back to the source slot builders, extend them (`.extend()` or `.asComponent()`), and recompose. The shared variant contract gets re-enforced at the new composition site.
+
+### Implementation Surface
+
+- **Zero Rust changes.** Zero extraction changes. The Rust crate sees each slot as a normal component.
+- **Pure TS types** for the shared variant enforcement (~0 runtime cost for type checking).
+- **~50 lines of React** for context wiring (provider + consumer wrappers).
+- **`.asClass()` is NOT a prerequisite.** `compose()` wraps `.asElement()` outputs directly. `.asClass()` (now shipped) enables Panda-style manual className distribution as a parallel option, but `compose()` works with components.
+
+### Cross-Slot Compound Variants
+
+**Explicitly out of scope for the styling system.** Cross-slot compounds ("when `checked=true AND size=sm`, control gets blue border AND label gets blue text") are runtime logic — the condition depends on component state, not static variant values.
+
+Handle with conditional className or a state prop on the affected slot:
+
+```ts
+// In the component body — runtime logic, not extraction
+<Checkbox.Control className={checked && size === 'sm' ? 'checked-sm-override' : undefined} />
+```
+
+The extraction pipeline handles each slot's self-contained variants. Cross-slot conditional styling is a component-library concern, not a styling-system concern.
+
+### Consumer className Override
+
+When a consumer passes `className` to a composed slot, it merges with the slot's extracted classes (appended, same as any Animus component). The cascade contract applies: consumer classes at `@layer system` or higher override base/variant styles deterministically.
+
+## Design Space (explored, informing conclusion)
+
+### Option A: Builder chain with `.slots()` entry point
+
+```ts
+const Checkbox = ds
+  .slots(['root', 'control', 'label'])
+  .styles({ root: { ... }, control: { ... }, label: { ... } })
+  .variant({ prop: 'size', variants: { sm: { control: { ... } }, md: { ... } } })
+  .asElements({ root: 'label', control: 'div', label: 'span' })
+```
+
+**Rejected:** Changes the shape of `.styles()` from flat CSS to slot-keyed objects. Requires a second type-state machine. The builder chain becomes about N components pretending to be one chain.
+
+### Option B: Composition via `createSlotRecipe()`
+
+```ts
+const Checkbox = ds.slotRecipe({
+  slots: { root: checkboxRoot, control: checkboxControl, label: checkboxLabel },
+  variants: { ... },
+})
+```
+
+**Rejected:** Variant styles are separate from slot definitions. The variant injection mechanism ("how do shared variants modify existing slot components?") has no clean answer without changing extraction.
+
+### Option C: Independent components + thin utility
+
+Evolved into the `compose()` conclusion above. Each slot owns its variants. The utility handles enforcement, context, and sealing.
+
+## Persona Reviews (March 2026)
+
+Three simulated practitioner reviews were conducted to stress-test the proposal:
+
+### Convergent Signal (all three agree)
+
+1. **Bottom-up composition is correct.** No new primitive needed.
+2. **The real cost is divergence, not duplication.** Slots drift apart over time — engineer adds `lg` to one slot, forgets another. Bug surfaces months later. `compose()`'s type enforcement directly addresses this.
+3. **Cross-slot compound variants are the unsolved hard case.** Correctly scoped as a component-library concern.
+4. **The @layer cascade claim is real but narrower than originally stated.** It solves parent-variant vs child-base conflicts deterministically, but consumers hit other conflict patterns (sibling collisions, consumer overrides) more often.
+5. **Consumer className override needs an explicit story.** (Addressed above.)
+
+### Panda/Ark UI Reviewer
+
+- Biggest pain of `sva()` is manual class distribution + context boilerplate. `compose()` solves exactly this.
+- The "independence" story is partly illusory — in practice, slot components are never used outside their bundle. Source components should be non-exported.
+- Variant divergence across slots is a real maintenance burden at 15+ multi-slot components.
+
+### NextUI/Tailwind Variants Reviewer
+
+- Context is not how `tv()` propagates variants — it uses a single call site. But for Animus's component model (`.asElement()` outputs), context is the appropriate mechanism.
+- Unified type inference matters for Storybook controls, form integration, and design tooling. `compose()` should derive a union type for shared props automatically.
+- Variant value set mismatches between slots are the specific bug class that type enforcement must catch.
+
+### Vanilla Extract/StyleX Reviewer
+
+- `bundle()` is context dressed as explicitness — honest framing matters.
+- The layer-per-slot cascade contract is genuinely better than VE's atomic merge model for composition.
+- Biggest risk at scale: slots gain variants outside the bundle's `shared` list, and the bundle doesn't know to propagate them. `compose()` type enforcement addresses this if the shared list is enforced bidirectionally.
+
+## Prior Art Comparison
+
+| Framework | API shape | @layer ordering | Extraction | Runtime model |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| Panda `sva()` | Flat config, top-down | No @layer | Build-time codegen | className factory |
+| Chakra `defineSlotRecipe()` | Flat config, top-down | No @layer | Build-time codegen | className factory |
+| NextUI / Tailwind Variants | `tv()` with slots | No @layer | None (runtime) | className factory |
+| Animus `compose()` | Bottom-up, type-enforced | Per-slot @layer | Per-component Rust extraction | Sealed components + context |
+
+The @layer advantage is preserved in the bottom-up approach because each slot IS a normal Animus component with full cascade semantics. The compose boundary adds coordination without changing the extraction model.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- `.asClass()` terminal — **SHIPPED** (session 20). Enables Panda-style manual className wiring as a parallel option. Not required for `compose()`.
+- Type-level variant interface extraction from `AnimusComponent` — needed for `compose()` to read variant keys and value sets from slot components at the type level.

+## compose() — Slot Composition Utility
+
+### Overview
+
+A utility function in `@animus-ui/system` that takes independently-authored Animus components and produces a sealed, namespaced component family with type-enforced shared variants and React context propagation.
+
+### Function Signature
+
+```ts
+function compose<
+  Slots extends Record<string, AnimusComponent<any, any, any, any, any, any, any, any>>,
+  Shared extends readonly (SharedVariantKeys<Slots>)[]
+>(
+  slots: Slots,
+  options: { shared: Shared }
+): ComposedFamily<Slots, Shared>
+```
+
+### Type Constraints
+
+#### SharedVariantKeys<Slots>
+
+Derives the intersection of all variant prop names across all slot components. Only variant keys that exist on EVERY slot are valid `shared` entries:
+
+```ts
+type SharedVariantKeys<Slots> = keyof Intersection<VariantPropsOf<Slots[keyof Slots]>>
+```
+
+If `Root` has `size | variant` and `Control` has `size | checked`, then `SharedVariantKeys` = `'size'` (only `size` appears on all slots).
+
+#### Variant Value Set Enforcement
+
+For each key in `shared`, the variant value sets must be identical across all slots:
+
+```ts
+// Root:   size: 'sm' | 'md'
+// Control: size: 'sm' | 'md'
+// Label:  size: 'sm' | 'md'
+compose({ Root, Control, Label }, { shared: ['size'] as const }) // OK
+
+// Root:   size: 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg'
+// Label:  size: 'sm' | 'md'
+compose({ Root, Label }, { shared: ['size'] as const }) // TS ERROR
+```
+
+This is the compile-time guarantee against variant divergence.
+
+#### VariantPropsOf<C>
+
+Extracts the variant prop types from an `AnimusComponent`. Requires reading the `V` generic from the component type:
+
+```ts
+type VariantPropsOf<C> = C extends AnimusComponent<any, any, any, any, infer V, any, any, any>
+  ? VariantProps<V>
+  : never
+```
+
+### Output Type: ComposedFamily
+
+```ts
+type ComposedFamily<Slots, Shared> = {
+  [K in keyof Slots as Capitalize<K & string>]: ComposedSlot<Slots[K], Shared>
+}
+```
+
+Each slot becomes a capitalized property on the family (`root` → `Root`). If input keys are already capitalized, they pass through unchanged.
+
+#### ComposedSlot
+
+A sealed React component. Accepts the same props as the source component MINUS the shared variant props (which come from context instead of direct props):
+
+```ts
+type ComposedSlot<C, Shared> = ForwardRefExoticComponent<
+  Omit<ComponentPropsOf<C>, Shared[number]> & { className?: string }
+>
+```
+
+The Root slot is special — it KEEPS the shared variant props (it's the provider):
+
+```ts
+type ComposedRoot<C, Shared> = ForwardRefExoticComponent<
+  ComponentPropsOf<C> & { className?: string; children?: ReactNode }
+>
+```
+
+### Sealed Output
+
+Composed slots are plain `ForwardRefExoticComponent` — NOT `AnimusComponent`. They have no `.extend()` method. The builder chain is closed.
+
+To extend a composed family:
+1. Extend the source slot builder (e.g., `CheckboxControl.extend()...`)
+2. Call `compose()` again with the extended slot
+
+### Runtime Behavior
+
+#### Context
+
+`compose()` creates a single React context per family:
+
+```ts
+const FamilyContext = createContext<Record<string, unknown>>({})
+```
+
+#### Root Component
+
+The Root slot wraps its children in a context provider. The shared variant prop values are the context value:
+
+```ts
+// Generated Root wrapper (simplified)
+const ComposedRoot = forwardRef((props, ref) => {
+  const sharedValues = pick(props, sharedKeys)
+  const ownProps = omit(props, sharedKeys)
+  return (
+    <FamilyContext.Provider value={sharedValues}>
+      <OriginalRoot {...ownProps} {...sharedValues} ref={ref} />
+    </FamilyContext.Provider>
+  )
+})
+```
+
+Root passes shared props BOTH to context (for children) AND to the original component (for its own variant resolution).
+
+#### Child Slots
+
+Child slots read shared variant values from context and merge with directly-passed props (direct props win):
+
+```ts
+// Generated child wrapper (simplified)
+const ComposedChild = forwardRef((props, ref) => {
+  const shared = useContext(FamilyContext)
+  return <OriginalChild {...shared} {...props} ref={ref} />
+})
+```
+
+Direct prop override: `<Checkbox.Control size="lg" />` overrides the context value. This is intentional — it allows per-slot exceptions.
+
+### Extraction Compatibility
+
+Zero extraction changes required. Each source slot is extracted independently by the Rust crate as a normal `AnimusComponent`. The `compose()` wrapper is invisible to extraction — it's a pure React wrapper around already-extracted components.
+
+### Cross-Slot Compound Variants
+
+Out of scope for `compose()`. Cross-slot conditional styling (e.g., "when `checked=true AND size=sm`, both control and label change") is a component-library concern handled via runtime logic in the component body.
+
+### Edge Cases
+
+- **Portal-mounted slots**: Slots rendered inside a React portal lose context. This is the standard React context limitation. Workaround: pass shared props directly to portal-mounted slots.
+- **Nested families**: Two `compose()` families nested in the DOM use separate contexts. No collision.
+- **Empty shared list**: `compose({ ... }, { shared: [] as const })` is valid — produces a namespaced family with no context wiring. Useful for pure organizational grouping.

+## Context
+
+The theme builder (`createTheme`) is a compile-time authoring API. Its sole purpose is producing a manifest (tokenMap, variableMap, CSS variable declarations) consumed by the Rust extraction pipeline. The theme object itself is discarded after `build()` — it never reaches the browser or the Rust crate as a structured object.
+
+Currently, `addScale(name, factory)` and `createScaleVariables(name)` are separate methods with different call patterns. The builder chain interleaves collection and resolution — `addColors` stores AND serializes, `createScaleVariables` transforms values in-place during chaining. This creates an implicit ordering dependency without making it explicit in the API.
+
+The builder chain is a cascade: each step can reference what came before. Colors are declared first, color modes reference palette colors, scales can reference emitted colors and other emitted scales. This cascade is the same principle that governs the CSS layer order (`@layer base < variants < compounds < states`), applied at the configuration level.
+
+### Current Implementation
+
+- `ThemeBuilder.addScale(key, createScale)` — calls `flattenScale(createScale(this.#theme))`, stores result in `this.#theme[key]`
+- `ThemeBuilder.createScaleVariables(key)` — calls `serializeTokens()` which converts values to `var()` refs, stores originals in `_tokens[key]`, declarations in `_variables[key]`
+- `ThemeBuilder.build()` — calls `assembleManifest()` which iterates all theme keys, flattens tokens, builds tokenMap/variableMap
+
+### Consumers
+
+- **Showcase** (`ds.ts`): 13 `addScale` calls (all static factories), 1 `createScaleVariables('sizes')`
+- **Docs** (`_docs/theme.ts`): uses factory param for derived shadows — `({ colors }) => ({...})`. Internal only.
+- **Tests** (`theme.test.ts`, `test-system.ts`): exercise both patterns
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+
+- Unify `addScale` + `createScaleVariables` into a single method call
+- Remove factory ceremony — static values don't need callback wrappers
+- Enable cross-scale references via token ref syntax (`{colors.text}`) instead of JS interpolation
+- Type-safe token refs constrained to emitted scales via template literal types
+- Preserve identical manifest output — no downstream changes to Rust pipeline
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+
+- Refactoring `build()` internals into a multi-phase pipeline (correct architecture, separate change)
+- Changing how `addColors` or `addColorModes` work (they're fine as-is)
+- Adding token ref resolution to the Rust extraction pipeline (it already has it for component styles)
+- Template literal type for key-level validation (`{colors.text}` where `text` must be `keyof T['colors']`) — fast-follow, not blocking
+
+## Decisions
+
+### D1: Config object shape — `{ name, values, emit? }`
+
+Single config object matching the pattern used by `.variant({ prop, variants, defaultVariant })`.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- `addScale(name, values)` — 2-arg positional. Simpler but no place for `emit` flag without a third arg.
+- `addScale(name, { values, emit })` — name stays positional. Doesn't match the config-object pattern used elsewhere.
+
+**Rationale:** Config objects are self-documenting and extensible. Every key is named. Consistent with variant/compound APIs.
+
+### D2: `emit` defaults to `false`
+
+12 of 13 showcase scales don't emit CSS variables. Only `sizes` does. Defaulting to `true` would emit variables for scales like `borders: { 1: '1px solid ' }` which makes no sense as a CSS variable.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- `emit: true` by default — "it just works" but creates unnecessary CSS variables and bloats the stylesheet.
+- No `emit` flag, always emit — simplest code path but wrong for scales used as lookup tables.
+
+**Rationale:** Opt-in matches the current behavior (explicit `createScaleVariables` call). Colors auto-emit because they always need variables for color mode switching. Scales are different — many are just value maps for prop resolution.
+
+### D3: Factory form eliminated entirely
+
+The factory `(theme) => ({...})` is used in exactly one internal consumer (`_docs/theme.ts`) for derived shadows. Token ref syntax is strictly superior:
+
+| | Factory | Token ref |
+|--|---------|-----------|
+| Cross-scale ref | `({ colors }) => ({ glow: \`0 0 12px \${colors.text}\` })` | `{ glow: '0 0 12px {colors.text}' }` |
+| Color mode | Bakes raw value — `#1a1a1a` | Preserves `var()` — responds to mode changes |
+| Type safety | Return type inference | Template literal + scale key constraint |
+
+**Rationale:** No overload, no `addDerivedScale`. One method, one shape. Token refs are the mechanism for cross-scale references at every level of the system.
+
+### D4: Token refs constrained to emitted scales only
+
+`{scale.key}` resolves to `var(--scale-key)`. If the scale wasn't emitted, there's no CSS variable to reference. Allowing refs to non-emitted scales would produce invalid CSS.
+
+This also preserves the mental model of the inheritance chain: you can see which scales are "public" (emitted, referenceable) vs "private" (lookup-only). The type system enforces this via template literal types constrained to `keyof EmittedScales<T>`.
+
+**Rationale:** Refs point to variables. No variable, no ref. Consistent mental model across theme and component layers.
+
+### D5: Resolution happens at `build()` time
+
+Token refs in scale values are resolved during `build()` by looking up the referenced value in the already-processed theme. The builder chain's sequential ordering guarantees that referenced scales have already been processed by the time they're used.
+
+This is separate from the Rust pipeline's token ref resolution (which handles component-level refs like `bg: '{colors.primary/40}'`). Two legitimate resolution sites, two different scopes: theme→theme vs component→theme.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- Resolution in Rust — would require Rust to understand theme-internal refs in CSS variable declarations. Spreads logic across languages.
+- Resolution during `addScale()` — couples collection and resolution. Prevents future refactoring to a pipeline model.
+
+**Rationale:** `build()` has the complete theme state. Resolution is a single pass over all values. Clean separation: collection happens during chaining, resolution happens at build.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Breaking change]** → `addScale` signature changes. Migration is mechanical but touches every `addScale` call. Mitigated: only internal consumers (showcase, _docs, tests). No published API yet.
+- **[Token ref resolution ordering]** → A scale value referencing a scale declared LATER in the chain would fail. Mitigated: `build()` resolves after all scales are collected. Chain order determines declaration order, not resolution order.
+- **[Template literal type complexity]** → Deep template literal types can cause TSC slowdowns. Mitigated: start with scale-name-level validation only. Key-level validation deferred.

+## Related: `--current-bg` local CSS variable
+
+Not part of addScale, but surfaced during this discussion and needs capturing.
+
+### The Pattern
+
+The original core had a provision where any time `bg` / `backgroundColor` is set on a component, the system also emits a local CSS variable `--current-bg` (or similar) set to the same resolved value.
+
+```css
+/* When bg: 'surface' is set */
+.animus-Card-abc {
+  background: var(--color-surface);
+  --current-bg: var(--color-surface);  /* auto-emitted */
+}
+```
+
+### Why It Matters
+
+The variable cascades through the DOM. Any child component can reference `var(--current-bg)` to know what background it's sitting on — without prop drilling or context.
+
+Use cases:
+- **Overlay transparency:** `border-color: color-mix(in srgb, var(--current-bg) 80%, transparent)`
+- **Scrollbar matching:** scrollbar track color matches the nearest ancestor's background
+- **Seamless borders:** borders that blend with the background rather than contrast
+- **Focus rings:** outline-offset backgrounds that match the surface beneath
+
+### Status
+
+Believed to be in the original `@animus-ui/core` but NOT preserved in the `@animus-ui/system` extraction pipeline. Needs investigation:
+1. Check if `core` had this behavior
+2. Determine where it should live in the extraction pipeline (CSS generator? prop group definition?)
+3. The prop group `bg` entry could have a `sideEffect` that also emits the CSS variable declaration

+## Why
+
+The current `addScale` API has three sources of friction:
+
+1. **Callback wrapper is ceremony.** Every scale in the showcase is `() => ({...})` — a factory that ignores its parameter. The `(theme) => ...` form exists for derived scales, but no consumer actually uses it. 13 of 13 showcase scales are static.
+
+2. **`createScaleVariables()` is a separate step.** Colors emit CSS variables automatically via `.addColors()`. Scales don't — you must chain `.createScaleVariables('name')` separately. It's easy to forget, and there's no reason scales should behave differently from colors.
+
+3. **Derived scales don't need JS interpolation.** The factory form was used for cross-scale references like `({ colors }) => ({ glow: \`0 0 12px \${colors.text}\` })`. But token ref syntax `{colors.text}` already resolves at build time — and is strictly better because it preserves `var()` indirection (responds to color mode changes), whereas factory interpolation bakes the raw value.
+
+## What Changes
+
+Replace `addScale(name, factory)` with `addScale({ name, values, emit? })` — a single config object matching the pattern used by `.variant()` and `.compound()`.
+
+**Before:**
+```ts
+createTheme({ breakpoints: {...} })
+  .addScale('space', () => ({
+    0: '0',
+    4: '0.25rem',
+    8: '0.5rem',
+    16: '1rem',
+  }))
+  .addScale('sizes', () => ({
+    navHeight: '48px',
+  }))
+  .createScaleVariables('sizes')  // easy to forget, colors don't need this
+  .build()
+```
+
+**After:**
+```ts
+createTheme({ breakpoints: {...} })
+  .addScale({
+    name: 'space',
+    values: { 0: '0', 4: '0.25rem', 8: '0.5rem', 16: '1rem' },
+  })
+  .addScale({
+    name: 'sizes',
+    emit: true,
+    values: { navHeight: '48px', sidebarWidth: '200px' },
+  })
+  .addScale({
+    name: 'shadows',
+    values: {
+      glow: '0 0 12px {colors.text}',  // token ref — resolves to var(--color-text)
+    },
+  })
+  .build()
+```
+
+- Single config object: `{ name, emit?, values }` — same shape as `.variant({ prop, variants, defaultVariant })`
+- `emit: true` → generates CSS variables (`--sizes-navHeight`)
+- `emit: false` (default) → scale values used for lookup only, no CSS variables
+- Token ref syntax `{colors.text}` in scale values resolves at `build()` time — only emitted scales may be referenced
+- Factory form eliminated — token refs replace JS interpolation for cross-scale references
+- `createScaleVariables()` eliminated — absorbed into `emit: true`
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Theme API:** `addScale` signature changes from `(name, factory)` to `({ name, values, emit? })`. Factory form removed entirely.
+- **`createScaleVariables`:** Removed. Absorbed into `emit: true` on addScale config.
+- **Existing consumers:** Migration is mechanical — unwrap `() => (...)` to `{ name, values }`. Remove `createScaleVariables` calls. Replace any factory interpolation with token refs.
+- **Extraction pipeline:** No Rust changes. Scale values already resolve through the variable map. The change is in the theme builder only.
+- **Type inference:** Flat object gives the same type inference as the factory return type. Token refs in values typed via template literal constrained to emitted scales.
+- **Theme as manifest generator:** The theme object is a compile-time artifact, discarded after manifest assembly. This change doesn't alter that — it simplifies the authoring API while preserving identical manifest output.
+
+## Resolved Questions
+
+- **Emit default:** `false`. Opt-in per scale. Colors auto-emit; scales don't unless explicitly requested.
+- **Factory form:** Eliminated entirely. No `addDerivedScale` needed. Token refs (`{scale.key}`) replace JS interpolation and are strictly better (preserve `var()` indirection, respond to color mode).
+- **Token ref scope:** Only emitted scales (those with CSS variables) may be referenced via `{scale.key}`. Enforced at compile time via `ValidateScaleValues` mapped type + `Emitted` generic on ThemeBuilder. This preserves the mental model: refs point to variables.
+- **Type checkpoint pattern:** Each `addScale` returns a new `ThemeBuilder` instance (via `#fork()`) with properly accumulated generics — same pattern as Animus component builder chain. `const` modifier on `Values` generic preserves string literals for template literal validation.
+- **`Emitted` generic:** Second generic parameter on `ThemeBuilder<T, Emitted>` tracks emitted scale names through the chain. Colors always add `'colors'` to Emitted. `addScale({ emit: true })` adds the scale name.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: addScale accepts a config object
+
+`ThemeBuilder.addScale()` SHALL accept a single config object with the shape `{ name: string, values: Record<string | number, string | number>, emit?: boolean }`.
+
+#### Scenario: Basic scale without emission
+
+- **WHEN** `addScale({ name: 'space', values: { 0: '0', 8: '0.5rem', 16: '1rem' } })` is called
+- **THEN** the theme SHALL contain `space` with the flattened values
+- **THEN** no CSS variables SHALL be generated for the scale
+
+#### Scenario: Scale with emission
+
+- **WHEN** `addScale({ name: 'sizes', emit: true, values: { navHeight: '48px' } })` is called
+- **THEN** the theme SHALL contain `sizes` with values converted to `var()` references
+- **THEN** CSS variable declarations SHALL be generated (`--sizes-navHeight: 48px`)
+- **THEN** original values SHALL be preserved in `_tokens.sizes`
+
+#### Scenario: Nested scale values are flattened
+
+- **WHEN** `addScale({ name: 'colors', values: { gray: { 100: '#f5f5f5', 900: '#1a1a1a' } } })` is called
+- **THEN** the theme SHALL contain `colors` with flattened keys using `-` separator (`gray-100`, `gray-900`)
+
+#### Scenario: emit defaults to false
+
+- **WHEN** `addScale({ name: 'borders', values: { 1: '1px solid ' } })` is called without an `emit` property
+- **THEN** no CSS variables SHALL be generated for the scale
+
+### Requirement: addScale config object is type-safe
+
+The config object SHALL be fully typed with generics that infer the scale name and value keys.
+
+#### Scenario: Scale name is inferred as literal type
+
+- **WHEN** `.addScale({ name: 'space', values: { 8: '0.5rem' } })` is chained
+- **THEN** the returned builder's theme type SHALL include `space` as a key with `{ 8: string }` shape
+
+#### Scenario: Subsequent addScale calls accumulate in theme type
+
+- **WHEN** `.addScale({ name: 'space', values: {...} }).addScale({ name: 'sizes', values: {...} })` is chained
+- **THEN** the returned builder's theme type SHALL include both `space` and `sizes`
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: addScale factory signature
+
+The two-argument form `addScale(name: string, factory: (theme: T) => Record)` is removed.
+
+**Reason**: Factory callbacks are ceremony — 13 of 13 showcase scales use static values. Cross-scale references are handled by token ref syntax instead of JS interpolation, which is strictly better (preserves `var()` indirection).
+
+**Migration**: Unwrap `addScale('name', () => ({...}))` to `addScale({ name: 'name', values: {...} })`. Replace factory interpolation (`\${colors.text}`) with token refs (`{colors.text}`).
+
+### Requirement: createScaleVariables method
+
+The `ThemeBuilder.createScaleVariables(key)` method is removed.
+
+**Reason**: Absorbed into `addScale({ emit: true })`. Separate method was easy to forget and inconsistent with how colors auto-emit.
+
+**Migration**: Remove `.createScaleVariables('name')` calls. Add `emit: true` to the corresponding `addScale` config.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Token refs in scale values resolve at build time
+
+Scale values MAY contain token ref syntax `{scale.key}`. These refs SHALL be resolved during `build()` by looking up the referenced value in the accumulated theme state.
+
+#### Scenario: Token ref to emitted color
+
+- **WHEN** a scale value contains `'0 0 12px {colors.text}'`
+- **AND** `colors.text` has been emitted as `var(--color-text)`
+- **THEN** the resolved value SHALL be `'0 0 12px var(--color-text)'`
+
+#### Scenario: Token ref to emitted scale
+
+- **WHEN** a scale value contains `'calc({sizes.navHeight} + 16px)'`
+- **AND** `sizes.navHeight` has been emitted as `var(--sizes-navHeight)`
+- **THEN** the resolved value SHALL be `'calc(var(--sizes-navHeight) + 16px)'`
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple token refs in one value
+
+- **WHEN** a scale value contains `'{sizes.sidebarWidth} 1fr {sizes.tocWidth}'`
+- **THEN** all token refs SHALL be resolved independently
+
+#### Scenario: Token ref to non-emitted scale is a type error
+
+- **WHEN** a scale value contains `'{borders.1}'`
+- **AND** `borders` was declared with `emit: false` (or default)
+- **THEN** the template literal type SHALL reject this at compile time
+- **AND** if somehow bypassed, `build()` SHALL emit a warning
+
+### Requirement: Token refs constrained to emitted scales via types
+
+The `values` property in the addScale config SHALL accept a template literal type that constrains token ref scale names to only scales that have been emitted (via `addColors`, `addColorModes`, or `addScale({ emit: true })`).
+
+#### Scenario: Ref to emitted scale compiles
+
+- **WHEN** `addScale({ name: 'shadows', values: { glow: '0 0 12px {colors.text}' } })` is written
+- **AND** `colors` was previously added via `addColors()` (which auto-emits)
+- **THEN** the type checker SHALL accept the value
+
+#### Scenario: Ref to non-emitted scale fails to compile
+
+- **WHEN** `addScale({ name: 'shadows', values: { glow: '{borders.1} {colors.text}' } })` is written
+- **AND** `borders` was declared with `emit: false`
+- **THEN** the type checker SHALL reject the value with a type error
+
+#### Scenario: Ref to undeclared scale fails to compile
+
+- **WHEN** `addScale({ name: 'shadows', values: { glow: '{bogus.key}' } })` is written
+- **AND** no scale named `bogus` exists in the builder chain
+- **THEN** the type checker SHALL reject the value with a type error
+
+### Requirement: Token ref resolution order is independent of declaration order
+
+Token refs SHALL be resolved at `build()` time, after all scales have been collected. The order of `addScale` calls in the chain SHALL NOT affect resolution — only whether the referenced scale exists and is emitted.
+
+#### Scenario: Forward reference to later-declared emitted scale
+
+- **WHEN** `addScale({ name: 'shadows', values: { soft: '{sizes.navHeight}' } })` is chained BEFORE `addScale({ name: 'sizes', emit: true, values: { navHeight: '48px' } })`
+- **THEN** the token ref SHALL resolve correctly at `build()` time
+- **NOTE** Type checking may still require declaration-order constraints — this is acceptable
+
+#### Scenario: Self-referential token ref is rejected
+
+- **WHEN** a scale value contains a token ref to its own scale (e.g., `addScale({ name: 'x', emit: true, values: { a: '{x.b}', b: '1px' } })`)
+- **THEN** `build()` SHALL detect the circular reference and emit a warning

+## Context
+
+The CI workflow was created during the `cross-platform-napi` change (session 5) as a first pass. It has three jobs: `check` (TS-only), `build-extract` (Rust matrix), `verify` (full pipeline with binary). The `check` and `verify` jobs duplicate lint, build, and test work. The `check` job also runs `bun test` without the NAPI binary, which would fail for any test that imports extraction functions.
+
+Several bugs were discovered when running CI: `napi` binary not on PATH, root `tsc --noEmit` picks up dead packages (`_docs`, `ui`, `_integration`), and compile runs before build so cross-package imports fail.
+
+There is no release job. The `publishing-surface` change (27 tasks) handles package restructuring and metadata, but assumes CI can actually publish. This change provides the infrastructure.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- CI that catches real errors without redundant work
+- NAPI platform packages published to npm (synthetic packages from `napi pre-publish`)
+- TS packages publishable from CI with correct dependency ordering
+- Beta versions on `next` branch, stable on `main`
+- Manual trigger option for release (workflow_dispatch)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Package restructuring (that's `publishing-surface`)
+- Changesets or automated version bumping (manual version management for now)
+- Monorepo publishing orchestration tools (Lerna, changesets, etc.) — just direct `npm publish`
+- CDN distribution or GitHub Releases for binaries
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Collapse to 4 CI jobs
+
+**Choice:** `lint` → `build-extract` → `verify` → `release`
+
+| Job | Runs on | Does what | Depends on |
+|-----|---------|-----------|------------|
+| `lint` | ubuntu | `bun run check` (biome only) | — |
+| `build-extract` | matrix (3 platforms) | Rust NAPI compile, upload artifacts | — |
+| `verify` | ubuntu | Download binary, build TS, compile, test, showcase | `build-extract` |
+| `release` | ubuntu | Download all binaries, `napi pre-publish`, npm publish all | `verify`, only on tag/dispatch |
+
+**Why:** `check` and `verify` duplicated lint, build, and test. `check` ran tests without the binary (broken). Lint is fast and independent — run it in parallel with `build-extract`. Everything else goes in `verify` which has the real binary.
+
+### Decision 2: Tag-triggered release with manual dispatch
+
+**Choice:** Release job runs on `v*` tag push OR `workflow_dispatch`. No automatic publishing on push.
+
+**Why:** Automatic publish on every push is dangerous for a package ecosystem. Tags are explicit intent. Manual dispatch allows emergency releases. Beta versions use `v0.1.0-next.N` tags on `next` branch.
+
+### Decision 3: Publish order — platform packages first, then TS packages
+
+**Choice:**
+1. Publish `@animus-ui/extract-darwin-arm64`, `-linux-x64-gnu`, `-linux-arm64-gnu`
+2. Publish `@animus-ui/extract` (depends on platform packages via optionalDependencies)
+3. Publish `@animus-ui/core`, `@animus-ui/theming` (no cross-deps)
+4. Publish `@animus-ui/runtime` (depends on react peer)
+5. Publish `@animus-ui/system` (depends on core, theming)
+6. Publish `@animus-ui/vite-plugin` (depends on extract, core)
+
+**Why:** npm resolves optionalDependencies at install time. If platform packages aren't published yet when the main extract package is published, installs will silently skip the binary. TS packages follow dependency order.
+
+### Decision 4: `bunx @napi-rs/cli` instead of bare `napi`
+
+**Choice:** Use `bunx @napi-rs/cli build` in CI instead of `napi build`.
+
+**Why:** `@napi-rs/cli` is a devDependency of `packages/extract`. After `bun install`, the binary is in `node_modules/.bin/` but not on system PATH in CI. `bunx` finds local binaries first.
+
+### Decision 5: Per-workspace compile, not root tsc
+
+**Choice:** `compile` script runs `tsc -p <pkg>/tsconfig.json --noEmit` for each active package.
+
+**Why:** Root `tsc --noEmit` uses root tsconfig (`jsx: "react"`) which doesn't match packages that need `jsx: "react-jsx"`. Each package has its own tsconfig with correct settings. Dead packages (`_docs`, `ui`, `_integration`) are excluded from workspaces entirely.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Tag discipline required]** → Publishing requires manual tag creation. Mitigation: document the tag convention (`v0.1.0-next.1` for beta, `v0.1.0` for stable). Consider adding a `release` script that bumps versions and creates tags.
+
+**[Platform package version sync]** → Platform packages must have the same version as the main extract package. Mitigation: `napi pre-publish` reads version from main package.json and applies it to generated platform packages.
+
+**[NPM_TOKEN required]** → CI needs `NPM_TOKEN` secret for publishing. Mitigation: document setup in workflow comments. Use `--provenance` flag if available for supply chain security.
+
+**[First publish bootstrapping]** → Platform packages don't exist on npm yet. First publish of `@animus-ui/extract` will warn about missing optionalDependencies during install until all platform packages are published. Mitigation: publish platform packages first in the release job, wait for npm registry propagation.

+## Why
+
+The CI workflow has three bugs (napi command not found, root tsc picking up dead packages, compile running before build) and redundant job structure (check and verify duplicate most work). There is no release pipeline — zero packages can be published from CI. Beta versions haven't been available since the extraction rewrite began. The `publishing-surface` change handles package restructuring but assumes a working CI release pipeline exists.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Fix CI `napi: command not found` — use `bunx @napi-rs/cli` instead of bare `napi`
+- Per-workspace type checking — `compile` runs `tsc -p` on each active package instead of root `tsc --noEmit`
+- Build-before-compile ordering in CI and `verify` script
+- Workspace exclusions — remove `_docs`, `ui`, `_integration` from workspace array
+- Collapse CI jobs — merge redundant `check` + `verify` into `lint` + `build-extract` + `verify`
+- Add NAPI release job — download artifacts, `napi pre-publish -t npm`, publish platform packages
+- Add TS release job — build and publish core, theming, runtime, system, vite-plugin
+- Version strategy: `next` branch → beta tags, `main` branch → stable releases
+- Trigger: tag push (`v*`) or manual workflow dispatch
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `ci-workflow-structure`: CI job topology — lint, build-extract matrix, verify (with binary), release. No redundant re-runs.
+- `napi-release`: NAPI platform package generation and publishing — synthetic packages from `napi pre-publish`, per-platform npm packages, coordinated publish order.
+- `ts-release`: TypeScript package publishing — build order, version resolution, npm publish for core/theming/runtime/system/vite-plugin.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `build-verification`: Per-workspace compile, build-before-compile ordering, workspace exclusions for dead packages.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **CI workflow**: `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` restructured from 3 jobs to 4 (lint, build-extract, verify, release)
+- **Root package.json**: workspace array explicit (7 packages), `compile` per-workspace, `verify` includes compile
+- **System tsconfig**: excludes `__tests__` type test files (separate `test:types` script handles them)
+- **No code changes**: purely infrastructure/build system

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Per-workspace type checking
+The `compile` script SHALL run `tsc --noEmit` with each active package's own `tsconfig.json` instead of running root-level `tsc --noEmit`. Active packages: core, theming, runtime, system, vite-plugin, showcase.
+
+#### Scenario: Each package uses own tsconfig
+- **WHEN** `bun run compile` executes
+- **THEN** it SHALL run `tsc -p packages/<pkg>/tsconfig.json --noEmit` for each of the 6 active packages
+
+#### Scenario: Dead packages excluded
+- **WHEN** `bun run compile` executes
+- **THEN** `packages/_docs`, `packages/ui`, and `packages/_integration` SHALL NOT be type-checked
+
+#### Scenario: JSX setting respected per package
+- **WHEN** `packages/showcase/tsconfig.json` specifies `"jsx": "react-jsx"`
+- **THEN** showcase files SHALL be type-checked with automatic JSX transform, not requiring `import React`
+
+### Requirement: Build before compile ordering
+The `compile` script SHALL only be run after `build:ts` completes, so that cross-package import declarations in `dist/` are available for type resolution.
+
+#### Scenario: Verify script ordering
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify` executes
+- **THEN** `build:ts` SHALL complete before `compile` starts
+
+#### Scenario: CI step ordering
+- **WHEN** the CI `verify` job runs
+- **THEN** the Build step SHALL precede the Type Check step
+
+### Requirement: Explicit workspace list
+The root `package.json` `workspaces` field SHALL list active packages explicitly instead of using a glob pattern, excluding dead packages.
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace packages
+- **WHEN** `bun install` runs
+- **THEN** only `packages/core`, `packages/extract`, `packages/runtime`, `packages/showcase`, `packages/system`, `packages/theming`, and `packages/vite-plugin` SHALL be treated as workspace members
+
+#### Scenario: Dead packages ignored
+- **WHEN** `bun install` runs
+- **THEN** `packages/_docs`, `packages/ui`, and `packages/_integration` SHALL NOT be resolved as workspace members
+
+### Requirement: Type test files excluded from main compile
+The `packages/system/tsconfig.json` SHALL NOT include `__tests__/**/*.test-d.*` files. These files are type-checked separately via `bun run test:types` using their own `tsconfig.test-d.json` which disables `noUnusedLocals`.
+
+#### Scenario: Compile passes without type test noise
+- **WHEN** `tsc -p packages/system/tsconfig.json --noEmit` runs
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT report unused variable errors from `__tests__/types.test-d.tsx`
+
+#### Scenario: Type tests still verified
+- **WHEN** `bun run test:types` runs
+- **THEN** it SHALL use `packages/system/__tests__/tsconfig.test-d.json` which includes the test-d files with `noUnusedLocals: false`

+## Context
+
+Every theme dimension except breakpoints expands and contracts to match the consumer's configuration. Define 3 color scales → types show 3. Define 10 → types show 10. Breakpoints are the exception: the `Breakpoints<T>` interface mandates exactly 5 keys (`xs, sm, md, lg, xl`) regardless of what the consumer actually needs. This creates two problems:
+
+1. **Can't contract**: A project using only `{ sm, lg }` still sees 5 breakpoint keys in autocomplete. Using a phantom key like `md` silently produces nothing — no type error, no build warning.
+2. **Can't expand**: A project needing `2xl` or `3xl` has no way to add them. The hardcoded interface is a ceiling.
+
+The responsive array syntax (`[default, xs, sm, md, lg, xl]`) compounds this — it's positional and can't adapt to fewer or more breakpoints.
+
+The augmented `Theme` interface pattern (module augmentation → type-safe scale lookups) already proves this expand/contract architecture works for every other dimension. Breakpoints should follow the same path: define your keys, the types contract to match.
+
+### Current State
+
+| Layer | Hardcoded Location | What |
+|-------|-------------------|------|
+| Types (system) | `Breakpoints<T>` interface | Fixed `{ xs, sm, md, lg, xl }` |
+| Types (system) | `MediaQueryMap<T>`, `MediaQueryByKey<T>`, `MediaQueryArray<T>` | Fixed responsive shapes |
+| Types (core) | Duplicate `Breakpoints<T>` interface | Same |
+| Runtime (core) | `BREAKPOINT_KEYS` constant | `['_', 'xs', 'sm', 'md', 'lg', 'xl']` |
+| Runtime (core) | `createMediaQueries()` | Destructures `{ xs, sm, md, lg, xl }` |
+| Runtime (core) | `createStylist` line 169 | `['xs', 'sm', 'md', 'lg', 'xl'].map()` |
+| Rust | `BREAKPOINT_KEYS` constant | `["_", "xs", "sm", "md", "lg", "xl"]` |
+| Rust | `is_responsive_value()` | Uses hardcoded constant |
+| Theming | `ThemeWithBreakpoints<Bps extends Breakpoints>` | Constrained to fixed interface |
+
+**Already dynamic** (no changes needed):
+- `extract_breakpoints()` in Rust — reads from flattened theme HashMap, key-agnostic
+- `BreakpointMap` in css_generator.rs — `HashMap<String, u32>`, generates media queries from any keys
+- `resolve_responsive_prop()` in Rust — iterates object keys, not hardcoded
+- `objectParser()` in core — uses `Object.keys(breakpoints)`, mostly dynamic
+- Vite plugin — passes theme as JSON, no breakpoint assumptions
+- `ThemeBuilder.build()` in system — serializes `breakpoints` via `serializeTokens()`, key-agnostic
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Types expand and contract to match configuration: `{ sm: 640, lg: 1024 }` → responsive props accept exactly `_`, `sm`, `lg`. `{ xs: 480, sm: 768, md: 1024, lg: 1200, xl: 1440, '2xl': 1920 }` → all six plus `_`.
+- Only object syntax for responsive props (`{ _: val, md: val }`)
+- Runtime and Rust derive breakpoint keys from theme, zero hardcoded constants
+- Existing `{ xs: 480, sm: 768, md: 1024, lg: 1200, xl: 1440 }` continues to work identically (non-breaking for current consumers who keep the same keys)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Container queries or other responsive mechanisms (future)
+- Non-pixel breakpoint units (em, rem) — may revisit later
+- Responsive array syntax preservation — explicitly removing
+- Breakpoint-less themes (breakpoints are still required in createTheme)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Replace `Breakpoints<T>` with unconstrained Record
+
+**Choice:** `BaseTheme.breakpoints` becomes `Record<string, number>`. No fixed interface.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Making `Breakpoints<T>` generic over keys (`Breakpoints<Keys extends string, T = number> = Record<Keys, T>`). Rejected because this adds a generic parameter that propagates through `BaseTheme`, `AbstractTheme`, and every function signature that touches themes. The augmented `Theme` interface already carries the concrete key set — a generic is redundant.
+
+**How it works:** The augmented `Theme` interface (via `declare module '@animus-ui/system'`) carries the concrete breakpoint type. `MediaQueryMap<T>` reads `Theme['breakpoints']` at the type level. When not augmented, `BaseTheme.breakpoints = Record<string, number>` means any string key is valid (open, not restrictive).
+
+### Decision 2: `MediaQueryMap<T>` as a conditional mapped type
+
+```ts
+type BreakpointKeys = keyof Theme['breakpoints'];
+
+type MediaQueryMap<T> = { _?: T } & (
+  string extends BreakpointKeys
+    ? { [key: string]: T | undefined }  // unaugmented: open
+    : { [K in BreakpointKeys]?: T }     // augmented: exact keys
+);
+```
+
+**Rationale:** When `Theme` is augmented, `BreakpointKeys` resolves to a finite union (`'xs' | 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg' | 'xl'`) and the mapped type produces exact optional properties. When NOT augmented, `BreakpointKeys` is `string` (from `Record<string, number>`), and the conditional falls to the open arm — any key accepted.
+
+**Risk:** TSC mapped types over `keyof` can be expensive. Mitigation: `Theme['breakpoints']` is a flat record (no nesting), so the mapped type is shallow.
+
+### Decision 3: Remove array syntax entirely
+
+**Choice:** Delete `MediaQueryArray<T>`, `arrayParser()`, `isMediaArray()`, and all array-related responsive code.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Keep array syntax but make it index-based on theme key order. Rejected because: (a) positional semantics are fragile — reordering breakpoints changes the meaning of every array, (b) it's a second syntax for the same thing with strictly worse DX, (c) it adds complexity to the type system (tuple type from breakpoint count).
+
+### Decision 4: Pass breakpoint key set to Rust via existing theme serialization
+
+**Choice:** `is_responsive_value()` receives `&HashSet<String>` of valid breakpoint keys, extracted from the same `extract_breakpoints()` that already parses the theme. The `BREAKPOINT_KEYS` constant is deleted.
+
+**Alternative considered:** A separate `breakpoint_keys` parameter to NAPI functions. Rejected because the keys are already in the flattened theme as `breakpoints.*` entries — no new parameter needed.
+
+**Signature change:**
+```rust
+fn is_responsive_value(value: &Value, breakpoint_keys: &HashSet<String>) -> bool
+```
+
+This parameter threads from `extract_breakpoints()` → `resolve_styles()` → `is_responsive_value()`.
+
+### Decision 5: Runtime breakpoint resolution from theme object
+
+**Choice:** `createMediaQueries()` iterates `Object.keys(breakpoints)` in insertion order. `createStylist`'s `getMediaSelectors` does the same. No destructuring, no hardcoded array.
+
+```ts
+export const createMediaQueries = (breakpoints?: Record<string, number>): MediaQueryCache | null => {
+  if (!breakpoints) return null;
+  const keys = Object.keys(breakpoints);
+  return {
+    map: Object.fromEntries(keys.map(k => [k, templateMediaQuery(breakpoints[k])])),
+    array: keys.map(k => templateMediaQuery(breakpoints[k])),
+  };
+};
+```
+
+### Decision 6: `compatTheme` retains default breakpoints
+
+**Choice:** `compatTheme.breakpoints` keeps `{ xs: 480, sm: 768, md: 1024, lg: 1200, xl: 1440 }` as the runtime fallback for components that don't have a theme. This is backward-compatible.
+
+**Rationale:** The runtime still needs a fallback when `props.theme` is undefined (e.g., unit tests, Storybook). The default set doesn't constrain the TYPE system — it's just the runtime default.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+### [Risk] Type inference performance
+Mapped types over `keyof Theme['breakpoints']` could slow TSC on large codebases.
+→ **Mitigation:** The mapped type is shallow (one level, 3-6 keys typically). Benchmark TSC on the showcase after implementation. If slow, consider caching the type via a type alias in the augmentation.
+
+### [Risk] Responsive detection false positives in Rust
+With custom breakpoint keys like `color` or `size`, an object `{ color: 'red', size: '16px' }` could be misdetected as responsive if both happen to be breakpoint key names.
+→ **Mitigation:** This risk already exists with the current system (a style prop whose keys are all breakpoint names). In practice, breakpoint keys are conventionally abbreviations (`sm`, `md`, `lg`) that don't collide with CSS property names. Document that breakpoint keys should not overlap with CSS property names or scale keys.
+
+### [Risk] Core package backward compatibility
+The `core` package's `Breakpoints` interface and responsive types are used by the legacy theming package.
+→ **Mitigation:** Update both `core` and `system` in lockstep. The theming package's `ThemeWithBreakpoints<Bps extends Breakpoints>` becomes `ThemeWithBreakpoints<Bps extends Record<string, number>>`. Since `{ xs: 480, sm: 768, ... }` satisfies `Record<string, number>`, existing code compiles.
+
+### [Risk] `MediaQueryCache` type changes
+`MediaQueryByKey<T>` (used in `MediaQueryCache.map`) is currently a fixed interface. Changing to dynamic keys means `MediaQueryCache.map` becomes `Record<string, string>`.
+→ **Mitigation:** `MediaQueryCache` is internal to `core/styles/`. No public API surface exposed. The change is mechanical.
+
+### [Trade-off] Array syntax removal
+Some existing codebases may use array syntax. This is a breaking change.
+→ **Mitigation:** Array syntax is a niche feature primarily used in docs examples. Migration is mechanical (array → named object). A codemod could automate it, but the showcase has minimal array usage.

+## Why
+
+Every theme dimension — colors, scales, color modes — contracts to exactly what the consumer configured. Define 3 color scales, the type system shows 3. Breakpoints are the exception: the `Breakpoints` interface mandates exactly `{ xs, sm, md, lg, xl }` regardless of what the consumer needs. A project that only uses 2 breakpoints still sees 5 in autocomplete. A project that needs `2xl` or `3xl` can't add them.
+
+The type system should expand and contract to match the consumer's configuration. Define `{ sm: 640, lg: 1024 }` — responsive props accept exactly `_`, `sm`, `lg`. Define `{ xs: 480, sm: 768, md: 1024, lg: 1200, xl: 1440, '2xl': 1920 }` — responsive props accept all six plus `_`. Typos caught at compile time. Autocomplete shows exactly what exists. Same mechanism as token scales — `keyof Theme['breakpoints']` drives the contract.
+
+The responsive array syntax (`p={[8, 12, , 16]}`) is inherently positional and can't adapt to a variable number of breakpoints. Object syntax (`p={{ _: 8, lg: 16 }}`) is key-based and naturally contracts or expands.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **BREAKING**: Remove responsive array syntax (`p={[default, xs, sm, md, lg, xl]}`). Only object syntax remains (`p={{ _: 8, md: 16 }}`).
+- **BREAKING**: Replace the fixed `Breakpoints<T>` interface (`{ xs, sm, md, lg, xl }`) with an unconstrained `Record<string, T>`. The consumer's keys flow through the augmented `Theme` interface and the type system contracts to match.
+- `MediaQueryMap<T>` becomes a mapped type derived from `Theme['breakpoints']` — autocomplete shows exactly the configured keys, nothing more.
+- `MediaQueryArray<T>` and `MediaQueryByKey<T>` are removed entirely.
+- Runtime breakpoint resolution (`createMediaQueries`, `createStylist`, `objectParser`) derives keys dynamically from the theme object.
+- Rust extraction's `is_responsive_value()` receives breakpoint keys from the serialized theme instead of using a hardcoded constant.
+- `createTheme()` accepts any `Record<string, number>` for breakpoints — the keys become the responsive prop contract.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `configurable-breakpoints`: User-defined breakpoint keys flow through types, runtime, and extraction. The responsive prop object syntax accepts exactly the keys defined in `createTheme({ breakpoints: {...} })`.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `prop-system`: Responsive syntax changes — array syntax removed, `ResponsiveProp<T>` simplified to `T | MediaQueryMap<T>` where `MediaQueryMap` is derived from theme breakpoints.
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: `is_responsive_value()` detection uses theme-provided keys instead of hardcoded constant.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Types** (`system/src/types/theme.ts`, `system/src/types/props.ts`, `core/src/types/theme.ts`, `core/src/types/props.ts`): Interface definitions rewritten. `Breakpoints` becomes unconstrained, `MediaQueryMap` becomes mapped type, array types removed.
+- **Runtime** (`core/src/styles/responsive.ts`, `core/src/styles/createStylist.ts`, `core/src/styles/createParser.ts`): Hardcoded key arrays replaced with dynamic theme-derived iteration. `arrayParser` removed entirely.
+- **Rust** (`extract/src/theme_resolver.rs`): `BREAKPOINT_KEYS` constant removed, `is_responsive_value()` accepts breakpoint keys as a parameter from the serialized theme.
+- **Theming** (`theming/src/core/ThemeBuilder.ts`, `system/src/theme/createTheme.ts`): Generic constraint relaxed from `extends Breakpoints` to `extends Record<string, number>`.
+- **Consumer code**: Any responsive array syntax (`p={[8, 12, , 16]}`) must migrate to object syntax (`p={{ _: 8, sm: 12, lg: 16 }}`). Existing object syntax is unaffected as long as key names don't change.
+- **Showcase**: Replace any responsive arrays in fixtures/tests. Update `compatTheme` defaults if retained.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Breakpoint keys are user-defined
+`createTheme()` SHALL accept a `breakpoints` object with arbitrary string keys and numeric pixel values. The keys defined in this object SHALL become the complete set of valid responsive breakpoint identifiers throughout the type system, runtime, and extraction pipeline. No hardcoded breakpoint key set SHALL exist anywhere in the system.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom breakpoint keys
+- **WHEN** a consumer defines `createTheme({ breakpoints: { mobile: 480, tablet: 768, desktop: 1024 } })`
+- **THEN** responsive props SHALL accept `{ _: value, mobile: value, tablet: value, desktop: value }` and no other breakpoint keys
+
+#### Scenario: Fewer breakpoints than default
+- **WHEN** a consumer defines `createTheme({ breakpoints: { sm: 640, lg: 1024 } })`
+- **THEN** responsive props SHALL accept only `{ _: value, sm: value, lg: value }` — keys like `xs`, `md`, `xl` SHALL be type errors
+
+#### Scenario: More breakpoints than default
+- **WHEN** a consumer defines `createTheme({ breakpoints: { xs: 480, sm: 768, md: 1024, lg: 1200, xl: 1440, xxl: 1920 } })`
+- **THEN** responsive props SHALL accept all six keys plus `_`
+
+#### Scenario: The `_` key is always valid
+- **WHEN** a consumer uses `{ _: value }` in a responsive prop
+- **THEN** the `_` key SHALL be accepted regardless of what breakpoint keys are defined — it represents the default (no media query) value
+
+### Requirement: Breakpoint types flow through Theme augmentation
+The augmented `Theme` interface SHALL carry the user's breakpoint definition. `MediaQueryMap<T>` SHALL be a mapped type derived from `Theme['breakpoints']`, not a hardcoded interface. When consumers augment `Theme` via `declare module`, responsive prop types SHALL automatically reflect their breakpoint keys.
+
+#### Scenario: Augmented Theme drives responsive types
+- **WHEN** a consumer augments Theme with `interface Theme extends MyTheme {}` where MyTheme has `breakpoints: { sm: number; lg: number }`
+- **THEN** `ResponsiveProp<string>` SHALL resolve to `string | { _?: string; sm?: string; lg?: string }`
+
+#### Scenario: Unaugmented Theme falls back to open keys
+- **WHEN** Theme is NOT augmented (default `BaseTheme`)
+- **THEN** `ResponsiveProp<T>` SHALL accept `T | { _?: T; [key: string]: T | undefined }` — any string key is valid (no type narrowing without augmentation)
+
+### Requirement: Breakpoint ordering is declaration order
+Media queries SHALL be emitted in the order the breakpoint keys appear in the `breakpoints` object. Since JavaScript objects preserve insertion order for string keys, the consumer controls the cascade order by controlling the object literal order.
+
+#### Scenario: Mobile-first ordering
+- **WHEN** breakpoints are `{ sm: 640, md: 1024, lg: 1440 }`
+- **THEN** generated media queries SHALL appear in order: `@media (min-width: 640px)`, `@media (min-width: 1024px)`, `@media (min-width: 1440px)`
+
+#### Scenario: Order matters for cascade
+- **WHEN** a responsive prop specifies `{ sm: 'red', lg: 'blue' }` and `lg` comes after `sm` in the breakpoints definition
+- **THEN** the `@media (min-width: lg)` rule SHALL appear after the `@media (min-width: sm)` rule in the CSS output, ensuring the larger breakpoint wins at wider viewports
+
+### Requirement: createTheme validates breakpoint values
+`createTheme()` SHALL validate that all breakpoint values are positive numbers. Non-numeric or negative values SHALL throw at theme build time.
+
+#### Scenario: Non-numeric value rejected
+- **WHEN** a consumer passes `createTheme({ breakpoints: { sm: '768px' } })`
+- **THEN** `createTheme` SHALL throw an error indicating breakpoint values must be numbers (pixel values)
+
+#### Scenario: Zero is valid
+- **WHEN** a consumer passes `createTheme({ breakpoints: { base: 0, sm: 640 } })`
+- **THEN** the breakpoints SHALL be accepted — a breakpoint at 0px is valid (equivalent to default/mobile-first)

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: ParserProps parameterized by T
+`ParserProps<Config, T>` SHALL thread T through to `Scale<Config, T>` → `ScaleValue<Config, T>` for each prop in the config. Responsive prop types SHALL use `ResponsiveProp<V>` where `ResponsiveProp` is `V | MediaQueryMap<V>`. `MediaQueryMap<V>` SHALL be `{ _?: V } & { [K in keyof T['breakpoints']]?: V }` — a mapped type derived from the theme's breakpoint keys, not a hardcoded interface.
+
+#### Scenario: Parser props resolve scales from T
+- **WHEN** a parser is created for a config with `{ bg: { property: 'backgroundColor', scale: 'colors' } }`
+- **THEN** the parser's props type SHALL include `bg?: ResponsiveProp<keyof T['colors'] | CSSPropertyValue>`
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive prop accepts only theme breakpoint keys
+- **WHEN** T defines `breakpoints: { sm: number; lg: number }` and a parser prop accepts `ResponsiveProp<string>`
+- **THEN** `{ _: 'red', sm: 'blue', lg: 'green' }` SHALL type-check but `{ md: 'blue' }` SHALL be a type error
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Responsive array syntax
+**Reason:** Array syntax couples positional indices to a fixed breakpoint count. With user-defined breakpoint keys, positional ordering is ambiguous and fragile. Object syntax is key-based and naturally adapts to any breakpoint set.
+**Migration:** Replace `p={[8, 12, , 16]}` with `p={{ _: 8, xs: 12, lg: 16 }}`. The `_` key replaces index 0 (default), named keys replace positional indices.
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: MediaQueryMap is a mapped type
+`MediaQueryMap<T>` SHALL be defined as a mapped type over `Theme['breakpoints']` rather than a hardcoded interface. The shape SHALL be `{ _?: T } & { [K in keyof Theme['breakpoints']]?: T }`. When `Theme` is not augmented, it SHALL fall back to `{ _?: T } & { [key: string]: T | undefined }`.
+
+#### Scenario: Mapped type reflects custom breakpoints
+- **WHEN** Theme is augmented with `breakpoints: { mobile: number; tablet: number; desktop: number }`
+- **THEN** `MediaQueryMap<string>` SHALL resolve to `{ _?: string; mobile?: string; tablet?: string; desktop?: string }`
+
+#### Scenario: Fallback when Theme is not augmented
+- **WHEN** Theme is NOT augmented
+- **THEN** `MediaQueryMap<T>` SHALL accept any string key (open record), not restrict to `xs | sm | md | lg | xl`
+
+### Requirement: ResponsiveProp simplified to two forms
+`ResponsiveProp<T>` SHALL be `T | MediaQueryMap<T>`. The `MediaQueryArray<T>` union arm SHALL be removed entirely. No array-based responsive syntax SHALL be supported at the type level.
+
+#### Scenario: Object syntax accepted
+- **WHEN** a prop value is `{ _: 8, md: 16 }`
+- **THEN** it SHALL type-check as `ResponsiveProp<number>` with the appropriate breakpoint keys
+
+#### Scenario: Array syntax rejected
+- **WHEN** a prop value is `[8, 12, , 16]`
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT type-check as `ResponsiveProp<number>` — arrays are no longer valid responsive values

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: NAPI function signature
+The Rust crate SHALL export THREE NAPI functions:
+1. `extract(source, filename, theme_json, variable_map_json, config_json, group_registry_json) -> ExtractionResult` — per-file extraction (preserved for backward compatibility and testing)
+2. `analyze_project(file_entries_json, theme_json, variable_map_json, config_json, group_registry_json, package_resolution_json) -> String` — project-level analysis returning JSON manifest
+3. `transform_file(source, filename, manifest_json) -> TransformResult` — per-file transformation using manifest
+
+The `theme_json` parameter SHALL include `breakpoints.*` keys in the flattened theme. The extraction pipeline SHALL derive breakpoint key names from these entries rather than using any hardcoded constant.
+
+#### Scenario: Backward-compatible extract
+- **WHEN** `extract()` is called with a file containing only primary chains (no extensions)
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce the same result as before — CSS, transformed code, extractable flag, errors
+
+#### Scenario: Custom breakpoints in theme_json
+- **WHEN** `theme_json` contains `{ "breakpoints.mobile": "480", "breakpoints.tablet": "768", "breakpoints.desktop": "1024" }`
+- **THEN** the extraction pipeline SHALL recognize `{ mobile: value, tablet: value, desktop: value }` as responsive objects and generate `@media (min-width: 480px)`, `@media (min-width: 768px)`, `@media (min-width: 1024px)` queries
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Responsive detection uses theme-derived keys
+`is_responsive_value()` SHALL determine breakpoint key names from the serialized theme rather than a hardcoded constant. The function SHALL accept the set of valid breakpoint keys as a parameter (or access them from a shared context). An object value is responsive if ALL of its keys are either `_` (default) or members of the theme-derived breakpoint key set.
+
+#### Scenario: Standard breakpoints detected
+- **WHEN** theme defines breakpoints `xs, sm, md, lg, xl` and a style value is `{ _: "red", md: "blue" }`
+- **THEN** `is_responsive_value()` SHALL return true
+
+#### Scenario: Custom breakpoints detected
+- **WHEN** theme defines breakpoints `mobile, tablet, desktop` and a style value is `{ mobile: "8px", desktop: "16px" }`
+- **THEN** `is_responsive_value()` SHALL return true
+
+#### Scenario: Unknown keys rejected
+- **WHEN** theme defines breakpoints `sm, lg` and a style value is `{ sm: "8px", md: "16px" }`
+- **THEN** `is_responsive_value()` SHALL return false (`md` is not a defined breakpoint)
+
+#### Scenario: Empty breakpoint set
+- **WHEN** theme defines no breakpoints and a style value is `{ sm: "8px" }`
+- **THEN** `is_responsive_value()` SHALL return false (no keys are valid breakpoints)
+
+### Requirement: extract_breakpoints is key-agnostic
+`extract_breakpoints()` SHALL extract ALL keys matching the `breakpoints.*` prefix from the flattened theme without assuming specific key names. The resulting `BreakpointMap` SHALL contain exactly the keys present in the theme.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom keys extracted
+- **WHEN** the flattened theme contains `{ "breakpoints.mobile": "480", "breakpoints.desktop": "1024" }`
+- **THEN** `extract_breakpoints()` SHALL return a `BreakpointMap` with keys `mobile` and `desktop`
+
+#### Scenario: No breakpoints defined
+- **WHEN** the flattened theme contains no `breakpoints.*` entries
+- **THEN** `extract_breakpoints()` SHALL return an empty `BreakpointMap`

+## Context
+
+CSS provides `currentColor` as a built-in cascading reference to the inherited `color` property. No equivalent exists for `backgroundColor`, `borderColor`, or other properties. The `--current-bg` pattern manufactures this cascade by emitting a CSS custom property alongside the resolved background-color value, allowing children to reference it without prop drilling.
+
+The system's typed scale props reject raw `var(--current-bg)` because color props are constrained to `keyof TokenScales<Theme>['colors']`. For contextual vars to be usable from typed props, they must be first-class members of their scale's type.
+
+The ThemeBuilder already has `#checkpoint` for pure-inference type accumulation and `#emittedScales` for tracking which scales produce CSS variables. Contextual vars are a parallel concept: phantom scale members that participate in types but not in token emission.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Provide a ThemeBuilder method to declare contextual CSS variables as phantom members of a scale
+- Contextual var names appear in `TokenScales<Theme>[Scale]` — accepted by any prop bound to that scale
+- Object-key API for type narrowing without `as const`
+- Rust extractor resolves contextual var names to `var(--name)` instead of token lookup
+- Optional auto-emission: a prop can declare that it emits a sibling CSS custom property declaration
+- Chainable with `#checkpoint` — multiple `addContextualVars` calls accumulate
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- New ref syntax (`$current`, `{$...}`) — contextual vars are regular scale members, same syntax as tokens
+- Responsive or mode-dependent contextual vars — they resolve to a single CSS custom property
+- Runtime/React context integration — this is purely a CSS cascade mechanism
+- Contextual vars for non-color scales in this iteration (mechanism is general, enablement starts with colors)
+- Compose/slot-level contextual var binding — CSS cascade already flows contextual vars through slots; no explicit binding API needed
+- Runtime dynamic prop emission — when `bg={dynamicVar}` falls through to inline style injection, `--current-bg` is not auto-emitted (extraction is static; dynamic values are uncommon for design-system bg)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Theme-level declaration, not prop-level
+
+**Decision:** Contextual vars are declared on the theme via `.addContextualVars()`, not on prop configs.
+
+**Why:** The type flow is unidirectional: Theme → Scale → PropConfig → ComponentProps. Declaring at the theme level means `TokenScales<Theme>['colors']` naturally includes the contextual var names. Every prop with `scale: 'colors'` inherits them. Declaring at the prop level would require types to flow backward (prop config → scale type), which is circular.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Derive the type union from prop configs that have `currentVar` set. Rejected because it requires an augmentable interface disconnected from the source of truth, and creates a circular dependency between prop definitions and scale types.
+
+### 2. Config-object API with object-key narrowing
+
+**Decision:** Use `{ scale: Scale, vars: Vars }` where `Vars` is a `Record<string, string>` whose keys are the var names and values are the CSS custom property names.
+
+```typescript
+.addContextualVars({
+  scale: 'colors',
+  vars: {
+    'current-bg': '--current-bg',
+    'current-border-color': '--current-border-color',
+  },
+})
+```
+
+**Why:** Object keys are always narrowed to literal types — no `const` generic modifier or `as const` needed. The config-object pattern is consistent with `addScale({ name, values, emit })`. The values carry the CSS custom property name, making the mapping explicit.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Array API with `const` generic modifier (`const Vars extends readonly string[]`). Works but requires the CSS var name to be derived by convention. Explicit mapping is clearer and allows non-obvious mappings.
+
+### 3. Phantom type merging via `#checkpoint`
+
+**Decision:** `addContextualVars` uses the existing `#checkpoint` pattern. The theme runtime object is unchanged — only the type widens to include phantom keys.
+
+```typescript
+type PhantomKeys = { [K in keyof Vars]: string };
+type NextScale = T[Scale] & PhantomKeys;
+type Next = { [K in keyof T]: K extends Scale ? NextScale : T[K] };
+return this.#checkpoint<Next, Emitted>(this.#theme);
+```
+
+**Why:** Phantom keys participate in `keyof TokenScales<Theme>['colors']` but don't exist in the runtime theme object. The `#checkpoint` pattern already handles type-only mutations (same runtime data, wider type). No new mechanism needed.
+
+### 4. Separate emission from declaration
+
+**Decision:** Declaration (theme-level) and emission (prop-level) are independent concerns.
+
+- **Declaration:** `.addContextualVars()` says "these names are valid scale members that resolve to CSS variables."
+- **Emission:** `currentVar: '--current-bg'` on a prop config says "when this prop is set, also emit this CSS custom property."
+
+**Why:** A contextual var might be SET by one prop (`bg`) but REFERENCED by many (`borderColor`, `color`, `fill`, `stroke`). Decoupling means the theme owns the vocabulary (what's valid) and the prop config owns the automation (what triggers emission). Users can also set contextual vars manually in `.styles()` without auto-emission.
+
+### 5. Rust resolution path
+
+**Decision:** The serialized theme includes a `contextualVars` registry. When the Rust extractor encounters a value that matches a contextual var name, it resolves to `var(--name)` using the registry mapping instead of looking up the token manifest.
+
+**Why:** Contextual var names look like regular scale keys to the type system but require different resolution. The registry provides the Rust extractor with the information to distinguish them. Resolution order: token manifest first (preserves existing behavior on collision), then contextual vars registry, then raw passthrough. Token manifest precedence is the safer default — if a name collision occurs, existing token behavior is preserved and the contextual var is silently shadowed.
+
+### 6. Auto-emission in Rust
+
+**Decision:** `resolve_single_prop` in `theme_resolver.rs` checks if the current prop has a `currentVar` in its config. If so, it pushes an additional `CssDeclaration` with the contextual var name as the property and the same resolved value.
+
+**Why:** This fires at the CSS generation level, so it works regardless of whether the prop was set in `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()`, or as a system prop. Every `background-color` declaration gets its `--current-bg` sibling. The existing `Vec<CssDeclaration>` return type already supports multiple declarations per prop.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Name collision]** → Contextual var names occupy the same namespace as regular token keys. A scale with a token named `current-bg` would collide. → Mitigation: the `current-` prefix convention is unlikely to conflict with design tokens. Document the convention.
+
+**[Phantom type confusion]** → `keyof TokenScales<Theme>['colors']` includes keys that have no runtime value in the theme object. Code that iterates theme keys at runtime won't find them. → Mitigation: contextual vars are a type-system concern. Runtime iteration already uses the manifest/variables, not raw theme keys.
+
+**[Ordering sensitivity]** → `addContextualVars` must be called AFTER the scale it targets exists (e.g., after `addColors`). Calling it before would fail because `Scale extends keyof T` wouldn't match. → Mitigation: document ordering requirement. TypeScript will enforce it — calling with a nonexistent scale name produces a type error.
+
+**[Auto-emission cascade correctness]** → If a component sets `bg: 'surface'` in base styles and `bg: 'coal'` in a variant, both declarations emit `--current-bg`. The variant's higher cascade layer ensures the correct one wins. → Mitigation: CSS cascade handles this naturally. No special logic needed.
+
+**[Self-referential circularity]** → `bg: 'current-bg'` on a component with auto-emission produces `--current-bg: var(--current-bg)` — a cyclic custom property. The browser treats this as invalid and falls back to the inherited value. → Mitigation: The Rust emitter SHALL skip auto-emission when the resolved value equals the contextual var's own CSS custom property (e.g., when resolved value is `var(--current-bg)` and `currentVar` is `--current-bg`).
+
+**[Pseudo-selector scoping]** → When `bg` is set only in a pseudo-selector (e.g., `&:hover`), `--current-bg` is emitted inside the pseudo block and only applies during that state. Children reading `var(--current-bg)` outside the pseudo context see the inherited or initial value. → Mitigation: This is correct CSS behavior — `--current-bg` tracks the CURRENT visual background, not the resting state. Document the behavior so consumers are not surprised.
+
+**[Responsive emission]** → When `bg` has responsive values (`bg={{ _: 'surface', md: 'coal' }}`), auto-emission must fire per-breakpoint. Each breakpoint's media query block must contain its own `--current-bg` sibling declaration. → Mitigation: The Rust emitter processes responsive declarations individually — each gets its own `resolve_single_prop` call, so auto-emission fires per-breakpoint automatically.
+
+**[Rust function signatures]** → Adding contextual var resolution requires threading a `contextual_vars` registry parameter through `resolve_value`, `resolve_flat_styles`, `resolve_single_alias`, and their callers. This is a non-trivial signature change across the theme resolver module. → Mitigation: Pass the registry as part of a resolver context struct rather than individual parameters to minimize churn.
+
+**[addColorModes validator interaction]** → `addColorModes` validates that mode alias values exist in the color token set. Contextual var names are phantom — they are NOT in the token set. If a mode alias references a contextual var name, the validator throws. → Mitigation: `addContextualVars` should be called AFTER `addColorModes`. Contextual vars are not valid mode alias targets (they don't have concrete values per-mode). TypeScript enforces ordering; document the constraint.

+## Why
+
+CSS provides `currentColor` — a value that cascades the inherited `color` to children. There is no equivalent for `backgroundColor`, `borderColor`, or any other property. Components that need to derive values from an ancestor's background (overlay transparency, scrollbar matching, focus ring contrast, seamless borders) must either prop-drill, use React context, or hardcode values.
+
+The original `@animus-ui/core` had a `--current-bg` side-effect pattern that was not preserved in `@animus-ui/system`. Restoring it requires solving a harder problem: typed color props reject raw `var(--current-bg)` because they're constrained to `keyof TokenScales<Theme>['colors']`. The contextual variable must be a first-class member of the scale's type to be usable.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **New ThemeBuilder method: `.addContextualVars()`** — Declares phantom scale members that resolve to CSS custom properties instead of token values. Uses config-object API with object-key narrowing (no `as const`).
+- **Type system integration** — Contextual var names appear in `TokenScales<Theme>[Scale]` via phantom key merging in `#checkpoint`. Any prop bound to that scale accepts them.
+- **Rust extractor: contextual var resolution** — When the extractor encounters a contextual var name as a style value, it resolves to `var(--{name})` instead of looking up the token manifest.
+- **Prop-level auto-emission (optional)** — New `currentVar` field on `Prop` interface. When a prop is set, the Rust extractor emits a sibling CSS custom property declaration with the same resolved value. This automates the cascade.
+- **Theme serialization** — Contextual var registry included in the serialized theme for Rust consumption.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `contextual-vars`: ThemeBuilder `.addContextualVars()` method, phantom type merging, serialization, and Rust resolution of contextual variables as scale members
+- `auto-emission`: Prop-level `currentVar` config that triggers sibling CSS custom property declaration alongside the resolved property value
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `theme-variable-emission`: Serialization must include contextual var registry alongside emitted scale variables
+- `prop-system`: `Prop` interface gains optional `currentVar` field; Rust `resolve_single_prop` emits sibling declarations
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/system/src/theme/createTheme.ts` — New `addContextualVars` method on ThemeBuilder, phantom type merging via `#checkpoint`
+- `packages/system/src/types/config.ts` — `Prop` interface gains `currentVar?: string`
+- `packages/system/src/groups/index.ts` — `bg` prop config gains `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- `packages/extract/src/theme_resolver.rs` — Contextual var resolution path + sibling declaration emission
+- `packages/system/src/SystemBuilder.ts` — Serialization of contextual var registry and `currentVar` prop metadata
+- Type tests and canary tests need coverage for phantom scale members and auto-emission

+- **WHEN** a prop config does not include `currentVar`
+- **THEN** behavior SHALL be unchanged — no sibling declaration is emitted
+
+### Requirement: Sibling CSS declaration emission
+When the Rust extractor processes a prop that has `currentVar` in its config, it SHALL emit an additional `CssDeclaration` with the CSS custom property name as the property and the same resolved value.
+
+#### Scenario: Auto-emission in base styles
+- **WHEN** a component has `.styles({ bg: 'surface' })` and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain both `background-color: var(--color-surface);` and `--current-bg: var(--color-surface);`
+
+#### Scenario: Auto-emission in variants
+- **WHEN** a variant option sets `bg: 'coal'` and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **THEN** the variant's CSS block SHALL contain both `background-color: var(--color-coal);` and `--current-bg: var(--color-coal);`
+
+#### Scenario: Auto-emission in states
+- **WHEN** a state sets `bg: 'primary'` and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **THEN** the state's CSS block SHALL contain both declarations
+
+#### Scenario: Auto-emission with system props
+- **WHEN** a system prop class is generated for `bg="surface"` and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **THEN** the utility class CSS SHALL contain both declarations
+
+#### Scenario: Cascade correctness with multiple layers
+- **WHEN** a component sets `bg: 'surface'` in `.styles()` (base layer) and `bg: 'coal'` in a variant (variants layer)
+- **THEN** base CSS SHALL contain `--current-bg: var(--color-surface)` and variant CSS SHALL contain `--current-bg: var(--color-coal)`
+- **AND** the CSS cascade SHALL ensure the variant's `--current-bg` wins when the variant is active
+
+#### Scenario: Auto-emission with raw CSS values
+- **WHEN** a component has `bg: '#ff0000'` (raw CSS, not a token) and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `background-color: #ff0000;` and `--current-bg: #ff0000;`
+
+### Requirement: Serialization of currentVar metadata
+The system serialization SHALL include `currentVar` in the prop config metadata sent to the Rust extractor.
+
+#### Scenario: PropConfig serialization
+- **WHEN** a prop has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **THEN** the serialized prop config SHALL include `currentVar: '--current-bg'` alongside `property`, `scale`, and other existing fields
+
+### Requirement: Self-referential emission guard
+The Rust extractor SHALL skip auto-emission when the resolved value would create a cyclic CSS custom property reference.
+
+#### Scenario: Self-referential bg value
+- **WHEN** a component has `bg: 'current-bg'` and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **AND** `current-bg` resolves to `var(--current-bg)`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `background-color: var(--current-bg)` but SHALL NOT contain `--current-bg: var(--current-bg)`
+
+#### Scenario: Non-self-referential value emits normally
+- **WHEN** a component has `bg: 'surface'` and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **AND** `surface` resolves to `var(--color-surface)`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain both `background-color: var(--color-surface)` and `--current-bg: var(--color-surface)`
+
+### Requirement: Responsive auto-emission
+When a prop with `currentVar` has responsive values, the sibling declaration SHALL be emitted within each breakpoint's media query block.
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive bg with auto-emission
+- **WHEN** a component has `bg={{ _: 'surface', md: 'coal' }}` and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **THEN** the default CSS block SHALL contain `--current-bg: var(--color-surface)`
+- **AND** the `md` media query block SHALL contain `--current-bg: var(--color-coal)`
+
+### Requirement: Rust PropConfig struct
+The Rust `PropConfig` struct SHALL include an optional `current_var` field parsed from the serialized prop config JSON.
+
+#### Scenario: PropConfig deserialization
+- **WHEN** the serialized prop config JSON contains `"currentVar": "--current-bg"`
+- **THEN** the Rust `PropConfig` struct SHALL have `current_var: Some("--current-bg".to_string())`
+
+#### Scenario: Missing currentVar defaults to None
+- **WHEN** the serialized prop config JSON does not contain `"currentVar"`
+- **THEN** the Rust `PropConfig` struct SHALL have `current_var: None`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: ThemeBuilder addContextualVars method
+The ThemeBuilder SHALL provide an `addContextualVars` method that declares phantom scale members resolving to CSS custom properties. The method SHALL accept a config object with `scale` (an existing scale name in `keyof T`) and `vars` (an object mapping contextual var names to CSS custom property names). Object keys SHALL narrow to literal types without requiring `as const` at the callsite.
+
+#### Scenario: Basic contextual var declaration
+- **WHEN** the theme chain calls `.addContextualVars({ scale: 'colors', vars: { 'current-bg': '--current-bg' } })`
+- **THEN** `keyof TokenScales<Theme>['colors']` SHALL include `'current-bg'`
+- **AND** existing color keys SHALL remain unchanged
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple contextual vars on one scale
+- **WHEN** the theme chain calls `.addContextualVars({ scale: 'colors', vars: { 'current-bg': '--current-bg', 'current-border-color': '--current-border-color' } })`
+- **THEN** `keyof TokenScales<Theme>['colors']` SHALL include both `'current-bg'` and `'current-border-color'`
+
+#### Scenario: Type narrowing without as const
+- **WHEN** a user writes `.addContextualVars({ scale: 'colors', vars: { 'current-bg': '--current-bg' } })` without `as const`
+- **THEN** the var names SHALL be inferred as literal string types, not widened to `string`
+
+#### Scenario: Scale must exist
+- **WHEN** `.addContextualVars({ scale: 'bogus', vars: { ... } })` is called with a scale not in `keyof T`
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL produce a type error on `scale`
+
+#### Scenario: Chainable with checkpoint
+- **WHEN** `.addContextualVars()` is called in the builder chain
+- **THEN** it SHALL return a new `ThemeBuilder` instance via `#checkpoint` with the widened type
+- **AND** subsequent chain methods SHALL see the updated type
+
+### Requirement: Phantom type merging
+Contextual var names SHALL exist as keys in the scale's type but SHALL NOT exist as values in the runtime theme object. They are type-only (phantom) members.
+
+#### Scenario: Type includes phantom keys
+- **WHEN** `addContextualVars` adds `'current-bg'` to the colors scale
+- **THEN** `'current-bg'` SHALL be a valid value for any prop with `scale: 'colors'` (e.g., `bg`, `color`, `borderColor`, `fill`)
+
+#### Scenario: Runtime theme unchanged
+- **WHEN** `addContextualVars` is called
+- **THEN** the runtime theme object passed to `#checkpoint` SHALL be identical to the theme before the call — no new keys added to the runtime object
+
+#### Scenario: Phantom keys do not appear in manifest
+- **WHEN** the theme is serialized via `.build()` and the manifest is generated
+- **THEN** contextual var names SHALL NOT appear in the `_variables` or token manifest as emitted tokens
+
+### Requirement: Contextual var serialization
+The theme serialization SHALL include a `contextualVars` registry mapping scale names to their contextual var entries (name → CSS custom property).
+
+#### Scenario: Serialized output includes registry
+- **WHEN** the theme has `.addContextualVars({ scale: 'colors', vars: { 'current-bg': '--current-bg' } })`
+- **THEN** `theme._contextualVars` SHALL contain `{ colors: { 'current-bg': '--current-bg' } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Registry available to Rust extractor
+- **WHEN** the vite plugin evaluates the theme and passes data to the Rust extractor
+- **THEN** the contextual var registry SHALL be included in the serialized theme data alongside `scalesJson` and `variableMapJson`
+
+### Requirement: Rust contextual var resolution
+The Rust extractor SHALL resolve contextual var names to their CSS custom property values when encountered as style values.
+
+#### Scenario: Contextual var as direct value
+- **WHEN** a component has `borderColor: 'current-bg'` and `current-bg` is in the contextual vars registry for `colors`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `border-color: var(--current-bg)`
+
+#### Scenario: Contextual var in token ref syntax
+- **WHEN** a component has `boxShadow: '0 0 8px {colors.current-bg}'`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `box-shadow: 0 0 8px var(--current-bg)`
+
+#### Scenario: Token manifest takes precedence
+- **WHEN** a token key and contextual var have the same name (unlikely but possible)
+- **THEN** the token manifest resolution SHALL take precedence over contextual var resolution
+
+#### Scenario: Unknown contextual var falls through
+- **WHEN** a value does not match any contextual var name or token key
+- **THEN** it SHALL be passed through as a raw CSS value (existing behavior)
+
+#### Scenario: Contextual var with opacity syntax
+- **WHEN** a component has `borderColor: '{colors.current-bg/50}'`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `border-color: color-mix(in srgb, var(--current-bg) 50%, transparent)`
+
+#### Scenario: Rust resolver function signatures
+- **WHEN** the contextual vars registry is loaded from theme data
+- **THEN** it SHALL be accessible to `resolve_value`, `resolve_flat_styles`, and `resolve_single_alias` via a shared resolver context — not individual function parameters
+
+### Requirement: Ordering constraint
+`addContextualVars` SHALL only accept scales that already exist in the theme type. It MUST be called after the target scale is added (e.g., after `addColors` for the colors scale).
+
+#### Scenario: Called after addColors
+- **WHEN** `addContextualVars({ scale: 'colors', ... })` is called after `addColors()`
+- **THEN** it SHALL compile and add phantom keys to the colors scale type
+
+#### Scenario: Called before addColors
+- **WHEN** `addContextualVars({ scale: 'colors', ... })` is called before `addColors()`
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL produce a type error because `'colors'` is not yet in `keyof T`
+
+#### Scenario: Runtime ordering guard
+- **WHEN** `addContextualVars` is called with a scale name that does not exist at runtime
+- **THEN** it SHALL throw an error: `"addContextualVars: scale 'X' not found — call addColors or addScale first"`

+## Context
+
+The showcase docs use a two-column layout: a sticky left sidebar listing all doc pages, and a content area. Long pages (Core Concepts, API Reference) have all topics on a single page. A table of contents was recently added to the sidebar below the page links, but mixing page-level navigation and within-page anchors in one column creates visual noise and scaling problems.
+
+The current routing structure is flat: `/docs`, `/docs/start`, `/docs/concepts`, `/docs/api`, `/docs/examples`. Each route maps to a single monolithic page file. The sidebar component has a hardcoded link list.
+
+Components are built with the `ds.styles()` Animus builder chain and extracted at build time. All style values must be static string literals. The app uses React Router v6 with nested `<Route>` elements and layout routes via `<Outlet>`.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Separate section identity, page selection, and within-page orientation into three distinct UI regions
+- Enable individual topic pages that can be linked directly (e.g., `/docs/concepts/design-tokens`)
+- Provide a right-column ToC with scroll spy for within-page navigation
+- Maintain the terminal-forward aesthetic — monospace, minimal, no heavy borders
+- Support responsive collapse: right ToC first, then left sidebar
+- Keep content column wide enough for code blocks at common viewports
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Search functionality
+- Mobile-first hamburger/drawer navigation (desktop docs experience is primary)
+- Breadcrumbs or other tertiary navigation elements
+- Automated heading extraction for sidebar (sidebar structure is route-driven, not DOM-driven)
+- Changing doc content — only restructuring files and routing
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Route structure: nested routes per section
+
+Each doc section that has multiple topics gets nested routes:
+
+```
+/docs                    → Why Animus (index)
+/docs/start              → Getting Started (flat)
+/docs/concepts           → redirect to /docs/concepts/builder-chain
+/docs/concepts/:topic    → individual concept pages
+/docs/api                → redirect to /docs/api/create-theme
+/docs/api/:topic         → individual API pages
+/docs/examples           → Examples (flat)
+```
+
+**Why nested over flat:** Flat routes (`/docs/builder-chain`) lose the section context from the URL. Nested routes make the hierarchy explicit and allow section-level layout wrappers.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Keep monolithic pages, use hash-based navigation only. Rejected because hash navigation doesn't trigger route-based code splitting, doesn't support section-level redirects, and the sidebar hierarchy would be misleading (looks like route links but behaves as scroll targets).
+
+### 2. Sidebar driven by route config, not DOM
+
+The sidebar renders from a static route configuration object, not from querying the DOM or reading file system. Each section declares its label, base path, and child pages.
+
+```typescript
+const DOCS_NAV = [
+  { label: 'Why Animus', path: '/docs', children: [] },
+  { label: 'Getting Started', path: '/docs/start', children: [] },
+  {
+    label: 'Core Concepts',
+    path: '/docs/concepts',
+    children: [
+      { label: 'The Builder Chain', path: '/docs/concepts/builder-chain' },
+      { label: 'The Cascade Contract', path: '/docs/concepts/cascade-contract' },
+      // ...
+    ],
+  },
+  // ...
+];
+```
+
+**Why static config:** Route configuration is the source of truth for what pages exist. The sidebar should reflect routes, not headings. This avoids DOM timing issues, works with SSR/SSG if needed later, and makes the navigation predictable.
+
+### 3. Right-column ToC via heading scan + IntersectionObserver
+
+The right-column ToC scans `h2[id]` and `h3[id]` elements on mount and route change. Active heading is tracked via IntersectionObserver with `rootMargin: '0px 0px -70% 0px'` to trigger activation when a heading enters the top 30% of the viewport.
+
+**Why DOM scan:** Heading IDs are already auto-generated by the `Heading` component. Scanning the DOM is simpler than requiring each page to export a heading manifest. The ToC is a read-only view of what's on the page.
+
+**Why not in the sidebar:** Mixing anchors and routes in one column was the problem this change solves. The right column is dedicated to within-page orientation.
+
+### 4. Three-column layout with CSS grid
+
+Replace the current flexbox two-column layout with CSS grid:
+
+```
+grid-template-columns: 200px 1fr 180px
+```
+
+At `md` breakpoint and below, collapse to two columns by hiding the right ToC. The sidebar persists at all breakpoints where horizontal space permits.
+
+**Why grid over flex:** Grid makes the three-column layout explicit and allows the right column to collapse without affecting the other two columns. The `1fr` center column naturally absorbs available space.
+
+### 5. Page splitting strategy
+
+Only pages with 5+ major sections get split:
+- **Core Concepts** → 6 pages (builder-chain, cascade-contract, design-tokens, responsive-props, variants-states, slot-composition)
+- **API Reference** → 6 pages (create-theme, create-system, builder-chain, create-transform, prop-groups, vite-plugin)
+- **Why Animus** → stays as single page (5 sections, narrative flow benefits from being one page)
+- **Getting Started** → stays as single page (sequential steps)
+- **Examples** → stays as single page (interactive demos)
+
+**Why not split everything:** Short pages with sequential flow (Getting Started) or narrative arc (Why Animus) read better as single pages. The split threshold is "would a user want to link directly to this section independently?"
+
+### 6. Heading scroll offset
+
+Add `scroll-margin-top` to heading elements in the `Heading` component to account for the sticky top nav (~48px). This ensures anchor links don't scroll the heading behind the nav bar.
+
+```typescript
+// In Heading base styles
+scrollMarginTop: '64px', // nav height + breathing room
+```
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Breaking links]** → Existing URLs like `/docs/concepts` change meaning (becomes redirect instead of full page). Mitigation: section index routes redirect to the first child page, so old links still work — they just land on a subset of content.
+- **[Content duplication risk]** → Splitting pages means shared context (imports, intro text) could be duplicated. Mitigation: keep each page self-contained. Shared components are already in the component library.
+- **[Right ToC on short pages]** → Pages with 0-1 headings waste the right column. Mitigation: ToC component auto-hides when fewer than 2 headings are found. Layout falls back to two-column.
+- **[Viewport squeeze]** → Three columns at narrow desktop viewports could compress content. Mitigation: right ToC collapses at 1024px. At 1280px, content gets 200 + 32 + content + 32 + 180 = content gets ~836px minimum, well above the 700px target.

+## Why
+
+The showcase docs currently use a flat sidebar listing all pages at one level, with in-page anchor links mixed into the same column. As documentation grows — Core Concepts has 17 headings, API Reference has 13 — this single-column approach breaks down. Anchor links crowd the sidebar, there's no visual hierarchy between "which section am I in" and "which page am I on," and long pages lack a dedicated table of contents for quick within-page navigation.
+
+The navigation needs to separate three concerns that are currently conflated: section identity (Concepts vs API Reference), page selection (The Builder Chain vs Design Tokens), and within-page orientation (which heading am I near).
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Restructure the sidebar into two visual levels.** Level 1 is the doc section (Core Concepts, API Reference, etc.). Level 2 is the page within that section. Every sidebar item represents a route change — no anchor links in the sidebar.
+- **Split monolithic doc pages into individual routes.** Core Concepts (currently one page with 6 major sections) becomes 6 routed pages. API Reference (currently one page with 6+ sections) becomes 6 routed pages. Shorter pages (Why Animus, Getting Started) remain single pages with no L2 children.
+- **Add a right-column "On this page" ToC.** A separate column listing heading anchors for the current page with scroll spy (IntersectionObserver). Hides when a page has fewer than 2 anchors.
+- **Add responsive collapse behavior.** Right-column ToC collapses first (~1024px). Left sidebar persists longer before collapsing. Content column maintains at least 700px at 1280px viewport.
+- **Update the docs layout to three columns.** Left sidebar + content + right ToC, replacing the current two-column layout.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `docs-section-routing`: Nested route structure under each doc section. Core Concepts and API Reference gain sub-routes for each topic page. Section index pages redirect to or render the first child.
+- `sidebar-two-level`: Two-level sidebar component with section (L1) and page (L2) items. Active section highlight, active page indicator, visual distinction between levels. Driven by route configuration, not hardcoded links.
+- `page-toc`: Right-column table of contents component. Scans page headings, renders anchor links, tracks active heading via IntersectionObserver. Auto-hides on pages with fewer than 2 anchors.
+- `docs-responsive-layout`: Three-column docs layout with responsive collapse. Right ToC collapses at ~1024px, left sidebar at a lower breakpoint. Content column width preserved.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `developer-knowledge-docs`: Page structure changes from monolithic pages to individual topic pages. Content unchanged, but file organization and routing are restructured.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Routing:** `App.tsx` gains nested routes under `/docs/concepts/*` and `/docs/api/*`. New layout route wrappers for sections with children.
+- **Page files:** `Concepts.tsx` splits into 6 files (builder-chain, cascade-contract, design-tokens, responsive-props, variants-states, slot-composition). `ApiReference.tsx` splits into 6 files (create-theme, create-system, builder-chain-api, create-transform, prop-groups, vite-plugin). Original files removed.
+- **Layout:** `DocsLayout.tsx` gains a third column slot for the right ToC. New `DocsThreeColumnLayout` or modification of existing layout.
+- **Components:** New `PageToc` component (right column). Existing `Sidebar` rewritten with two-level structure. Existing `TableOfContents` component (currently in sidebar) replaced or removed.
+- **Heading component:** May need `scroll-margin-top` added to clear the sticky nav on anchor scroll.
+- **Styling:** All new components built with `ds.styles()` chain, extracted via the Animus pipeline. Terminal-forward aesthetic — monospace links, subtle active indicators, no heavy borders or background panels.

+The API Reference documentation SHALL be organized as individual topic pages under a section route, rather than a single monolithic page.
+
+#### Scenario: Access a specific API page
+
+- **WHEN** user navigates to `/docs/api/prop-groups`
+- **THEN** the Prop Groups content renders as a standalone page with its own headings and tables
+
+#### Scenario: Content preservation
+
+- **WHEN** the API Reference content is split into individual pages
+- **THEN** all existing content (signatures, parameter tables, code examples) is preserved without modification
+
+### Requirement: Heading scroll offset
+
+All heading elements with IDs SHALL include scroll margin to clear the sticky navigation bar when used as anchor targets.
+
+#### Scenario: Anchor link to heading
+
+- **WHEN** user clicks a link that targets a heading anchor (from ToC, sidebar, or external link)
+- **THEN** the heading scrolls into view below the sticky nav bar with visible breathing room above it

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Three-column docs layout
+
+The docs layout SHALL use a three-column structure: left sidebar, center content, right ToC.
+
+#### Scenario: Full-width viewport
+
+- **WHEN** the viewport is 1280px or wider
+- **THEN** all three columns are visible with the content column at least 700px wide
+
+### Requirement: Right column collapses first
+
+The right-column ToC SHALL be the first element to collapse as viewport narrows.
+
+#### Scenario: Viewport at 1024px
+
+- **WHEN** the viewport is at or below 1024px
+- **THEN** the right-column ToC is hidden and the content area expands to fill the freed space
+
+#### Scenario: Viewport above 1024px
+
+- **WHEN** the viewport is above 1024px
+- **THEN** the right-column ToC is visible
+
+### Requirement: Left sidebar persists longer
+
+The left sidebar SHALL remain visible at viewports where the right column has already collapsed.
+
+#### Scenario: Medium viewport with sidebar visible
+
+- **WHEN** the viewport is between the sidebar breakpoint and 1024px
+- **THEN** the left sidebar is visible and the right ToC is hidden, producing a two-column layout
+
+### Requirement: Content column minimum width
+
+The content column SHALL maintain sufficient width for code blocks when all columns are visible.
+
+#### Scenario: Three columns at 1280px
+
+- **WHEN** the viewport is 1280px with all three columns visible
+- **THEN** the content column is at least 700px wide
+
+### Requirement: Layout graceful degradation
+
+The layout SHALL degrade cleanly through breakpoints: three columns → two columns → single column.
+
+#### Scenario: Progressive collapse
+
+- **WHEN** the viewport narrows progressively from 1440px to 768px
+- **THEN** the right ToC hides first, then the left sidebar hides, and the content area fills the viewport at each stage

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Nested routes for multi-topic sections
+
+The routing system SHALL support nested routes under doc sections that contain multiple topic pages. Each topic page SHALL be an individually addressable route.
+
+#### Scenario: Navigate to a concept topic
+
+- **WHEN** user visits `/docs/concepts/design-tokens`
+- **THEN** the Design Tokens page renders in the content area with the Core Concepts section active in the sidebar
+
+#### Scenario: Navigate to an API topic
+
+- **WHEN** user visits `/docs/api/create-theme`
+- **THEN** the createTheme() page renders in the content area with the API Reference section active in the sidebar
+
+### Requirement: Section index redirect
+
+Section paths without a topic slug SHALL redirect to the first child page in that section.
+
+#### Scenario: Visit section root
+
+- **WHEN** user visits `/docs/concepts`
+- **THEN** the browser redirects to `/docs/concepts/builder-chain`
+
+#### Scenario: Visit API section root
+
+- **WHEN** user visits `/docs/api`
+- **THEN** the browser redirects to `/docs/api/create-theme`
+
+### Requirement: Flat pages remain unchanged
+
+Doc sections with a single page (no children) SHALL render directly at their path without nesting.
+
+#### Scenario: Visit Getting Started
+
+- **WHEN** user visits `/docs/start`
+- **THEN** the Getting Started page renders without redirect or nested routing
+
+#### Scenario: Visit Why Animus
+
+- **WHEN** user visits `/docs`
+- **THEN** the Why Animus page renders as the docs index
+
+### Requirement: Code splitting per topic page
+
+Each topic page SHALL be a separate lazy-loaded module to maintain bundle splitting.
+
+#### Scenario: Load a concept page
+
+- **WHEN** user navigates to `/docs/concepts/cascade-contract`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Right-column table of contents
+
+The docs layout SHALL include a right-column region that displays heading anchors for the current page under an "On this page" label.
+
+#### Scenario: Page with multiple headings
+
+- **WHEN** user views a page with 3+ heading anchors (e.g., Variants & States with h2 and h3 headings)
+- **THEN** the right column renders a list of heading links corresponding to the page's h2 and h3 elements
+
+### Requirement: Heading hierarchy in ToC
+
+The ToC SHALL visually distinguish h2 headings from h3 headings to reflect the page structure.
+
+#### Scenario: Mixed heading levels
+
+- **WHEN** a page has h2 "Variants & States" with h3 children "Variants", "Compound variants", "States"
+- **THEN** the h2 appears at base indentation and h3 items appear indented with reduced visual weight
+
+### Requirement: Scroll spy active tracking
+
+The ToC SHALL highlight the heading anchor nearest to the user's current scroll position.
+
+#### Scenario: Scroll through sections
+
+- **WHEN** user scrolls from "Design Tokens" section into "Token aliasing" section
+- **THEN** the active indicator in the ToC moves from "Design Tokens" to "Token aliasing"
+
+#### Scenario: Page with tall code blocks
+
+- **WHEN** a page section contains tall code blocks that push the next heading far below
+- **THEN** the current heading remains active until the next heading enters the observation region, without skipping or lagging
+
+### Requirement: Auto-hide on sparse pages
+
+The ToC SHALL hide entirely when the current page has fewer than 2 heading anchors.
+
+#### Scenario: Page with one heading
+
+- **WHEN** user views a page that has only 1 h2 heading and no h3 headings
+- **THEN** the right column is hidden and the content area expands to fill the space
+
+#### Scenario: Page with no headings
+
+- **WHEN** user views a page with no heading anchors
+- **THEN** the right column is hidden
+
+### Requirement: Anchor click scrolls to heading
+
+Clicking a ToC link SHALL smooth-scroll the page to the corresponding heading and update the URL hash.
+
+#### Scenario: Click a ToC anchor
+
+- **WHEN** user clicks "Token aliasing" in the ToC
+- **THEN** the page smooth-scrolls to the "Token aliasing" heading, the URL updates to include `#token-aliasing`, and the heading is visible below the sticky nav bar
+
+### Requirement: Terminal-forward aesthetic
+
+The ToC SHALL use monospace typography, subtle active indicators, and no heavy borders or background panels. It SHALL feel consistent with the code block aesthetic of the docs.
+
+#### Scenario: Visual consistency
+
+- **WHEN** the ToC renders alongside code-heavy content
+- **THEN** the ToC uses the same monospace font family as code elements, with quiet color treatment that doesn't compete with the content

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Two-level sidebar hierarchy
+
+The sidebar SHALL render navigation items at two distinct visual levels: section (L1) and page (L2).
+
+#### Scenario: Section with children
+
+- **WHEN** the sidebar renders a section that has child pages (e.g., Core Concepts)
+- **THEN** the section label renders at L1 and its child pages render at L2 below it
+
+#### Scenario: Section without children
+
+- **WHEN** the sidebar renders a section with no child pages (e.g., Getting Started)
+- **THEN** the section renders at L1 only with no L2 items
+
+### Requirement: Active section indicator
+
+The sidebar SHALL visually indicate which section the user is currently in.
+
+#### Scenario: User is on a concept page
+
+- **WHEN** user is at `/docs/concepts/design-tokens`
+- **THEN** the "Core Concepts" L1 item displays an active highlight
+
+#### Scenario: User navigates between sections
+
+- **WHEN** user moves from `/docs/concepts/design-tokens` to `/docs/api/create-theme`
+- **THEN** the active highlight moves from "Core Concepts" to "API Reference"
+
+### Requirement: Active page indicator
+
+The sidebar SHALL visually indicate which specific page the user is on, distinct from the section indicator.
+
+#### Scenario: Active page within a section
+
+- **WHEN** user is at `/docs/concepts/design-tokens`
+- **THEN** the "Design Tokens" L2 item shows an active indicator (color shift, left border, or similar) that is visually distinct from the L1 section highlight
+
+### Requirement: Visual distinction between levels
+
+L1 and L2 items SHALL be visually distinguishable at a glance — not solely by indentation.
+
+#### Scenario: Scanning the sidebar
+
+- **WHEN** a user glances at the sidebar
+- **THEN** L1 items are distinguishable from L2 items through at least two visual cues (e.g., font weight, font size, color, letter spacing)
+
+### Requirement: Route-driven navigation
+
+Every sidebar item SHALL correspond to a route change. The sidebar SHALL NOT contain anchor links.
+
+#### Scenario: Click a sidebar item
+
+- **WHEN** user clicks any sidebar item
+- **THEN** a route navigation occurs (URL path changes), not a scroll-to-anchor
+
+### Requirement: Sidebar driven by configuration
+
+The sidebar content SHALL be driven by a static route configuration, not by DOM inspection or file system queries.
+
+#### Scenario: Sidebar renders on page load
+
+- **WHEN** the docs layout mounts
+- **THEN** the sidebar renders all sections and pages from the route configuration without waiting for content to load

+## 1. Page Splitting
+
+- [ ] 1.1 Create `pages/concepts/` directory and split Concepts.tsx into 6 files: BuilderChain.tsx, CascadeContract.tsx, DesignTokens.tsx, ResponsiveProps.tsx, VariantsStates.tsx, SlotComposition.tsx
+- [ ] 1.2 Create `pages/api/` directory and split ApiReference.tsx into 6 files: CreateTheme.tsx, CreateSystem.tsx, BuilderChainApi.tsx, CreateTransform.tsx, PropGroups.tsx, VitePlugin.tsx
+- [ ] 1.3 Add `scroll-margin-top: 64px` to the Heading component base styles
+- [ ] 1.4 Remove original monolithic Concepts.tsx and ApiReference.tsx
+
+## 2. Routing
+
+- [ ] 2.1 Define the DOCS_NAV route configuration object with sections, paths, and children
+- [ ] 2.2 Add nested routes in App.tsx for `/docs/concepts/:topic` and `/docs/api/:topic`
+- [ ] 2.3 Add index redirects for `/docs/concepts` → `/docs/concepts/builder-chain` and `/docs/api` → `/docs/api/create-theme`
+- [ ] 2.4 Add lazy imports for all new topic page components
+- [ ] 2.5 Create section layout wrapper components that render `<Outlet>` for nested routes
+
+## 3. Two-Level Sidebar
+
+- [ ] 3.1 Create route configuration data structure (DOCS_NAV) as a shared module
+- [ ] 3.2 Create L1 section item component with active highlight styling (font weight, color, or background distinct from L2)
+- [ ] 3.3 Create L2 page item component with active indicator (left border + color shift)
+- [ ] 3.4 Rewrite Sidebar component to render L1/L2 from DOCS_NAV, using React Router for active state detection
+- [ ] 3.5 Ensure sections without children (Why Animus, Getting Started, Examples) render as L1-only clickable items
+
+## 4. Right-Column Page ToC
+
+- [ ] 4.1 Create PageToc component: scans h2[id] and h3[id] on mount and route change, renders anchor links with depth variant
+- [ ] 4.2 Implement IntersectionObserver scroll spy with rootMargin tuned for tall code blocks
+- [ ] 4.3 Add smooth-scroll click handler with URL hash update
+- [ ] 4.4 Add auto-hide behavior when fewer than 2 headings are found
+- [ ] 4.5 Style with monospace font, subtle active indicator (color shift + thin left rule), no background panel
+
+## 5. Three-Column Layout
+
+- [ ] 5.1 Rewrite DocsLayout to use CSS grid with three columns: 200px sidebar, 1fr content, 180px ToC
+- [ ] 5.2 Integrate PageToc into the right column slot
+- [ ] 5.3 Handle ToC auto-hide: when PageToc returns null, content column expands (grid fallback to two columns)
+
+## 6. Responsive Behavior
+
+- [ ] 6.1 Add media query to hide right ToC column at md breakpoint (~1024px)
+- [ ] 6.2 Add media query to hide left sidebar at a lower breakpoint (~768px)
+- [ ] 6.3 Verify content column maintains 700px+ width at 1280px viewport with all columns visible
+- [ ] 6.4 Test layout at 1440px, 1280px, 1024px, and 768px viewports
+
+## 7. Cleanup and Verification
+
+- [ ] 7.1 Remove the existing TableOfContents component from Sidebar
+- [ ] 7.2 Update component barrel exports (index.ts) — add PageToc, remove TableOfContents if replaced
+- [ ] 7.3 Run `bun run build` to verify extraction succeeds for all new components
+- [ ] 7.4 Verify all routes resolve correctly and no existing URLs break (redirects work)
+- [ ] 7.5 Verify scroll spy tracks correctly on Concepts and API pages

+Define a `btn` scale in the theme — an intermediate color scale that the button component references. These CSS variables exist solely as the indirection point between "what the button looks like" and "which palette it's using."
+
+```typescript
+// In createTheme, define the intermediate scale with defaults
+.addScale('btn', () => ({
+  base: 'var(--color-primary)',
+  hover: 'var(--color-primary-hover)',
+  text: 'var(--color-bg)',          // inverse of bg for contrast
+  ring: 'var(--color-primary)',
+  muted: 'var(--color-primary)',    // used with alpha for ghost hover
+}))
+```
+
+This generates: `--btn-base`, `--btn-hover`, `--btn-text`, `--btn-ring`, `--btn-muted`.
+
+The defaults point at the mode's primary colors — so a button with no color variant inherits the mode's primary automatically. In dark mode that's fire, in ocean mode that's blue, etc.
+
+### The Component
+
+The button's base styles reference ONLY the intermediate vars:
+
+```typescript
+const Button = ds
+  .styles({
+    display: 'inline-flex',
+    alignItems: 'center',
+    justifyContent: 'center',
+    cursor: 'pointer',
+    fontFamily: 'mono',
+    fontWeight: 500,
+    transition: 'background-color 0.15s ease, color 0.15s ease, border-color 0.15s ease, box-shadow 0.15s ease',
+  })
+```
+
+### Color Variant — Re-aliases the Intermediate Scale
+
+The FIRST variant (highest in cascade after base) resets the `--btn-*` vars to a specific palette. This is where the indirection pays off:
+
+```typescript
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'color',
+    variants: {
+      // "primary" follows the mode — no override needed, defaults work
+      primary:   {},
+      // Semantic intent variants re-alias to specific palettes
+      secondary: {
+        '--btn-base':  'var(--color-secondary)',
+        '--btn-hover': 'var(--color-accent)',
+        '--btn-text':  'var(--color-bg)',
+      },
+      success:   {
+        '--btn-base':  'var(--color-forest-500)',
+        '--btn-hover': 'var(--color-forest-600)',
+        '--btn-text':  'var(--color-forest-50)',
+        '--btn-ring':  'var(--color-forest-300)',
+        '--btn-muted': 'var(--color-forest-500)',
+      },
+      warning:   {
+        '--btn-base':  'var(--color-gold-500)',
+        '--btn-hover': 'var(--color-gold-600)',
+        '--btn-text':  'var(--color-gold-950)',
+        '--btn-ring':  'var(--color-gold-300)',
+        '--btn-muted': 'var(--color-gold-500)',
+      },
+      danger:    {
+        '--btn-base':  'var(--color-fire-600)',
+        '--btn-hover': 'var(--color-fire-700)',
+        '--btn-text':  'var(--color-fire-50)',
+        '--btn-ring':  'var(--color-fire-300)',
+        '--btn-muted': 'var(--color-fire-600)',
+      },
+    },
+    defaultVariant: 'primary',
+  })
+```
+
+**Key**: `primary` is empty `{}` — it inherits the intermediates' defaults, which already point at `--color-primary`. The mode system handles which palette that resolves to. The other variants hardcode specific palette refs for semantic intent (success is always green, danger is always red, regardless of mode).
+
+### Style Variant — Composes Against Intermediates
+
+```typescript
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'kind',
+    variants: {
+      fill: {
+        background: 'var(--btn-base)',
+        color: 'var(--btn-text)',
+        border: 'none',
+        '&:hover': { background: 'var(--btn-hover)' },
+      },
+      outline: {
+        background: 'transparent',
+        border: '1px solid var(--btn-base)',
+        color: 'var(--btn-base)',
+        '&:hover': { background: 'color-mix(in srgb, var(--btn-muted) 10%, transparent)' },
+      },
+      ghost: {
+        background: 'transparent',
+        color: 'var(--btn-base)',
+        border: 'none',
+        '&:hover': { background: 'color-mix(in srgb, var(--btn-muted) 10%, transparent)' },
+      },
+    },
+    defaultVariant: 'fill',
+  })
+```
+
+These don't know or care which color is active. They only talk to `--btn-*`.
+
+### Size Variant — Pure Dimensional
+
+```typescript
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'size',
+    variants: {
+      sm: { px: 8,  py: 4,  fontSize: 12 },
+      md: { px: 16, py: 8,  fontSize: 14 },
+      lg: { px: 24, py: 12, fontSize: 16 },
+    },
+    defaultVariant: 'md',
+  })
+```
+
+### States
+
+```typescript
+  .states({
+    hover:    { background: 'var(--btn-hover)' },
+    active:   { transform: 'scale(0.98)' },
+    focus:    { boxShadow: '0 0 0 2px var(--btn-ring)' },
+    disabled: { opacity: '0.4', pointerEvents: 'none', cursor: 'default' },
+  })
+  .groups({ space: true })
+  .asElement('button');
+```
+
+States serve double duty: the real CSS pseudo-selectors in `.styles()` handle live interaction, the `.states()` booleans allow forced display in the matrix.
+
+## Why This Works
+
+```
+CASCADE ORDER:
+  @layer base     → bg references var(--btn-base), which defaults to var(--color-primary)
+  @layer variants → color="success" resets --btn-base to var(--color-forest-500)
+                    kind="outline" sets bg: transparent, border: var(--btn-base)
+                    size="lg" sets px: 24, py: 12
+  @layer states   → disabled sets opacity: 0.4
+```
+
+The variant layer OVERRIDES the base defaults. The button scale acts as a local scope — only the button reads from `--btn-*`, and only the color variant writes to it.
+
+## The Matrix Display
+
+```
+             primary    secondary   success    warning    danger
+fill    sm   [Button]   [Button]    [Button]   [Button]   [Button]
+        md   [Button]   [Button]    [Button]   [Button]   [Button]
+        lg   [Button]   [Button]    [Button]   [Button]   [Button]
+outline sm   [Button]   [Button]    [Button]   [Button]   [Button]
+        md   [Button]   [Button]    [Button]   [Button]   [Button]
+        lg   [Button]   [Button]    [Button]   [Button]   [Button]
+ghost   sm   [Button]   [Button]    [Button]   [Button]   [Button]
+        md   [Button]   [Button]    [Button]   [Button]   [Button]
+        lg   [Button]   [Button]    [Button]   [Button]   [Button]
+
+States (fill/md):
+        default   hover     active    focus     disabled
+primary [Button]  [Button]  [Button]  [Button]  [Button]
+danger  [Button]  [Button]  [Button]  [Button]  [Button]
+```
+
+5 colors × 3 styles × 3 sizes + state rows = 45+ buttons rendered, from ONE definition.
+
+## CSS Budget
+
+- Base styles (shared): ~180B
+- 5 color variants (var resets): ~5 × 100B = ~500B
+- 3 style variants (composing vars): ~3 × 120B = ~360B
+- 3 size variants (dimensional): ~3 × 50B = ~150B
+- 4 states: ~160B
+- **Total: ~1.35 KB** for 45+ visual combinations
+
+## Open Questions for Next Session
+
+1. **Does Rust extraction pass through `--btn-base` custom property declarations in variant values?** The variant value `{ '--btn-base': 'var(--color-fire-500)' }` needs to emit as a CSS custom property declaration, not be processed as a prop shorthand.
+
+2. **Can `addScale` produce `--btn-*` vars that reference other `var(--color-*)` vars as defaults?** The theme evaluation subprocess flattens token values — does it preserve `var()` references or try to resolve them?
+
+3. **Does `&:hover` inside a variant value work?** The pseudo-selector nesting in the `kind` variant needs to compose with the button's base styles correctly.
+
+4. **Do `.states()` boolean props work alongside real `:hover` pseudo-selectors?** We want both: pseudo-selectors for real interaction, state booleans for forced matrix display.

+## Context
+
+The showcase package is a single-page demo app with 28 Animus components, no routing, and no code splitting. It serves as an extraction pipeline proof but provides no consumer documentation. The extraction pipeline has been verified with code splitting (session 18: Vite correctly produces separate lazy chunks + shared component chunks + single CSS file).
+
+React Router v7 is already installed (`react-router-dom@7.13.2`). A minimal router with Shell layout, lazy Home page, and lazy Docs placeholder is already wired and builds successfully.
+
+Current build output with routing:
+```
+index.js        204.10 kB  — framework (react, router, runtime)
+components.js   104.25 kB  — shared component chunk
+Home.js           8.12 kB  — lazy route
+Docs.js           1.79 kB  — lazy route
+index.css        15.59 kB  — single CSS file (all extracted CSS)
+```
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- 5-page docs site that teaches Animus usage (Home, Why, Getting Started, Concepts, API Reference)
+- Stress test code splitting, lazy routes, color mode toggling, and shared component chunks
+- Dogfood Animus components for all docs site UI (nav, sidebar, headings, tables, code blocks)
+- Accurate API documentation reflecting the actual codebase (7-layer cascade, `.compound()`, `.extend()`, prop group composition)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Visual/graphic design (deferred to frontend-design skill)
+- Interactive playground or live code editor
+- Search, versioning, blog, or changelog
+- Mobile-optimized responsive layout (responsive props used but not a design target)
+- Production hosting configuration
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. BrowserRouter over createBrowserRouter
+
+**Decision**: Use `<BrowserRouter>` with JSX route definitions.
+
+**Why**: 5-page docs site with no loaders, actions, or complex data fetching. `createBrowserRouter` unlocks features we don't need (route loaders, `<ScrollRestoration>` component) at the cost of a different API shape. Scroll restoration is handled with a simple `useEffect` on pathname.
+
+**Alternative considered**: `createBrowserRouter` + `RouterProvider` — rejected as over-engineering for the current scope.
+
+### 2. Per-route Suspense boundaries (not centralized)
+
+**Decision**: Each lazy route is wrapped in its own `<Suspense>` at the route definition level.
+
+**Why**: Keeps the DocsLayout sidebar visible during page transitions. Only the content area suspends. If Suspense were centralized in DocsLayout wrapping `<Outlet />`, the sidebar would also disappear during loading.
+
+### 3. Wrapper function pattern for polymorphic components (Heading, List)
+
+**Decision**: Heading and List are wrapper function components around builder-chain styled primitives, not pure builder-chain exports.
+
+**Why**: Two concerns require runtime logic that builder chains can't express:
+- Element polymorphism: Heading renders `<h2>` or `<h3>` — variants control CSS classes, not HTML elements. The `as` prop on the underlying primitive handles element swapping.
+- Runtime id generation: Heading computes an `id` from children text content for anchor linking.
+
+This is the same pattern used by SyntaxBlock (wraps SyntaxPre with language/highlighting logic).
+
+**Alternative considered**: Two separate components (`H2`, `H3`) — rejected because it fragments the API and loses the level abstraction.
+
+### 4. Table as composition primitives (not data-driven)
+
+**Decision**: Table is three builder-chain components (`TableContainer`, `Th`, `Td`) composed by page code, not a single data-driven component.
+
+**Why**: Consistent with Animus's primitive composition model. Data-driven tables (`<Table columns={...} rows={...} />`) are convenient but inflexible when cells contain mixed content (InlineCode, links, emphasis). Composition handles this naturally.
+
+### 5. ColorModeToggle: two-part implementation
+
+**Decision**: Split into (1) a React component for the toggle button and (2) a blocking `<script>` in index.html for initialization.
+
+**Why**: React components render after hydration, which is after first paint. Reading localStorage and setting `data-color-mode` must happen before CSS is parsed to prevent flash of wrong color mode. The blocking script runs synchronously in `<head>`.
+
+### 6. CodeExample uses its own container (not CodeFrame)
+
+**Decision**: CodeExample wraps SyntaxBlock instances in a neutral container, not the existing CodeFrame component.
+
+**Why**: CodeFrame has a decorative gradient `::before` pseudo-element with animation — appropriate for the showcase's editorial aesthetic but inappropriate for neutral docs code display.
+
+### 7. Prop groups documented as composable building blocks
+
+**Decision**: Document the raw group exports (`color`, `flex`, `grid`, etc.) as building blocks, and show how `.addGroup()` composes them into named groups (`surface`, `arrange`, etc.).
+
+**Why**: The raw exports and the composed groups are two different levels of abstraction. Previous spec drafts conflated them, listing `color` group props as if they were the group a developer references in `.groups()`. The developer actually creates their own group names via `.addGroup('surface', { ...color, ...border, ...shadows })`.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Docs content accuracy may drift from codebase** → Mitigated by the review process that cross-referenced specs against actual source. Code examples in docs are static strings — they won't break if the API changes, but they also won't auto-update. Manual review needed when API changes.
+
+**[Risk] Single CSS file grows with every new component** → Acceptable for a 5-page docs site. Current CSS is 15.59 KB. Adding 7 new components will add ~1-2 KB. At scale (100+ components), this becomes a concern — but that's a future architecture decision (CSS code splitting), not an MVP concern.
+
+**[Risk] `bun run` subprocess dependency** → The vite-plugin's subprocess model requires `bun` on PATH. All three subprocesses (system load, global styles, transform resolution) use `bun run`. This is an existing constraint, not introduced by this change, but docs should note it in the Getting Started prerequisites.
+
+**[Trade-off] No Suspense fallback** → Pages are 1-8 KB. On fast connections, loading is invisible. On slow connections, the content area collapses briefly. Accepted for MVP — not worth adding loading UI for sub-frame load times.

+# Proposal: Docs Site
+
+## Status: Draft
+
+## Summary
+
+Transform the showcase package into a documentation site that serves two purposes: (1) teach a developer how to use Animus in under 15 minutes, and (2) stress-test the extraction pipeline against a real multi-route application with code splitting, lazy loading, shared component chunks, and color mode toggling.
+
+## Motivation
+
+### Documentation Gap
+
+Animus has shipped compound variants, prefix support, theme manifests, lightning CSS integration, and custom prop runtime — but the only consumer-facing documentation is a single-page demo. A developer encountering the library on npm has no getting-started guide, no explanation of why this library exists, and no API reference.
+
+### Engineering Validation Gap
+
+The extraction pipeline has been verified against a monolithic single-page build. Real consumer applications use React Router, lazy routes, and code splitting. We proved in session 18 that code splitting works mechanically (Vite correctly splits lazy routes and extracts shared component chunks), but we have no sustained multi-route application exercising:
+
+- Shared component chunks across routes
+- Dynamic props on lazy-loaded pages
+- Color mode toggling across the full app
+- Compound variants in a docs context
+- Custom transforms (fluid, ratio) in real content
+
+### Dogfooding
+
+Every element of the docs site — navigation, sidebar, layout, code blocks, headings, tables — will be built with Animus components using the builder chain. The docs don't just describe the system; they ARE the system.
+
+## Scope
+
+### In Scope
+
+- 5 pages: Home, Why Animus, Getting Started, Core Concepts, API Reference
+- React Router with lazy-loaded doc routes
+- Shared layout shell with navigation
+- New Animus components needed for docs content (sidebar, inline code, headings, tables, lists, color mode toggle, code examples)
+- Functional content for all 5 pages
+- Color mode toggle (dark/light)
+
+### Out of Scope
+
+- Visual/graphic design (deferred to frontend-design skill)
+- Interactive playground / live code editor
+- Search functionality
+- Versioned documentation
+- Blog / changelog
+- Component gallery / storybook-style browser
+- Mobile-specific responsive optimizations (responsive props will be used but mobile layout is not a primary concern for MVP)
+
+## Route Structure
+
+```
+/                → Home (pitch + hero)
+/docs            → Why Animus (motivation, overview)
+/docs/start      → Getting Started (install → first component)
+/docs/concepts   → Core Concepts (builder chain, cascade, tokens)
+/docs/api        → API Reference (functions + methods)
+```
+
+## New Components Required
+
+All built with Animus builder chain (dogfooding):
+
+| Component | Purpose |
+|-----------|---------|
+| Sidebar | Docs navigation with active state highlighting |
+| InlineCode | Inline code token display |
+| Heading | Section headings (h2/h3) with optional anchor links |
+| List | Ordered and unordered lists |
+| Table | Data tables for API reference |
+| ColorModeToggle | Dark/light mode switch |
+| CodeExample | Composite: syntax-highlighted code with optional "output" panel showing generated CSS |
+
+## Extraction Stress Test Coverage
+
+| Feature | Exercised By |
+|---------|-------------|
+| Code splitting | Lazy routes (Home, Why, Start, Concepts, API) |
+| Shared chunks | Components used across multiple routes |
+| Dynamic props | Per-breakpoint responsive layouts |
+| Compound variants | Navigation active states, code example variants |
+| Color modes | ColorModeToggle affecting entire app |
+| Custom transforms | Fluid typography in headings |
+| Global styles | Reset, scrollbar, selection (already present) |

+# New Components — Functional Spec
+
+All components are built with the Animus builder chain (`ds.styles().variant()...`). This is both a functional requirement and a dogfooding requirement — the docs site is an Animus application.
+
+## Existing Components (reused from current showcase)
+
+These components already exist in `src/components/` and are reused as-is or with minimal modification:
+
+| Component | Location | Role in Docs |
+|-----------|----------|-------------|
+| Stack | layout/Stack.tsx | Vertical flex container, primary layout primitive |
+| Row | layout/Row.tsx | Horizontal flex container |
+| Slab | layout/Slab.tsx | Max-width centered container |
+| Display | typography/Display.tsx | Large headings |
+| Prose | typography/Prose.tsx | Body text |
+| Mono | typography/Mono.tsx | Monospace text |
+| Label | typography/Label.tsx | Small labels |
+| SectionLabel | typography/SectionLabel.tsx | Section headers |
+| Accent | typography/Accent.tsx | Italic accent text |
+| SyntaxBlock | surfaces/SyntaxBlock.tsx | Syntax-highlighted code block (uses prism-react-renderer) |
+| CodeFrame | surfaces/CodeFrame.tsx | Code block container |
+
+## New Components
+
+### Sidebar
+
+**Purpose**: Navigation for docs pages. Renders a vertical list of links to all doc routes with active state highlighting.
+
+**Functional Requirements**:
+- Renders a list of navigation links for all `/docs/*` routes
+- Uses react-router-dom `NavLink` for active state detection
+- Active link must be visually distinguishable from inactive links (exact mechanism deferred to design)
+- Must remain visible while scrolling docs content (sticky positioning)
+- Receives route configuration as data, not hardcoded JSX — links defined as an array of `{ label, path }` objects
+
+**Builder Chain Usage**:
+- Base styles: flexDirection column, positioning
+- Groups: space, surface (for background/border props)
+
+---
+
+### InlineCode
+
+**Purpose**: Inline code tokens within prose text. For package names (`@animus-ui/system`), function names (`createTheme()`), file paths (`src/ds.ts`), property names (`fontSize`), values (`'primary'`).
+
+**Functional Requirements**:
+- Renders as an inline `<code>` element
+- Monospace font (from tokens: `fonts.mono`)
+- Visually distinct from surrounding prose text
+- Must not break text flow (inline display)
+
+**Builder Chain Usage**:
+- Base styles: fontFamily, fontSize, display inline, padding, background
+- No variants needed (single presentation)
+
+---
+
+### Heading
+
+**Purpose**: Section headings within docs pages. h2 and h3 levels.
+
+**Functional Requirements**:
+- Renders as `<h2>` or `<h3>` based on a `level` variant
+- Generates an id attribute from the heading text content (kebab-cased) for anchor linking
+- Optional anchor link — clicking the heading copies the anchor URL or navigates to `#id`
+- Must work with in-page scroll navigation
+
+**Builder Chain Usage**:
+- Base styles: font, weight, margin, color
+- Variant: `level` with values `2` and `3` mapping to different font sizes and spacing
+- Groups: space (for margin overrides)
+
+---
+
+### List
+
+**Purpose**: Ordered and unordered lists for documentation content. Used in prerequisites, step lists, feature lists.
+
+**Functional Requirements**:
+- Two variants: `ordered` (ol) and `unordered` (ul)
+- Renders `<ol>` or `<ul>` based on variant
+- Child `<li>` elements inherit consistent spacing and typography
+- Must compose with Prose-style typography (font family, size, line height)
+
+**Builder Chain Usage**:
+- Base styles: padding-left, margin, list-style
+- Variant: `type` with values `ordered` and `unordered`
+- Groups: space, text
+
+---
+
+### Table
+
+**Purpose**: Data tables for API reference. Parameter tables, option tables, layer order tables.
+
+**Functional Requirements**:
+- Renders a `<table>` with `<thead>` and `<tbody>`
+- Accepts data as structured props: `columns` (array of header labels) and `rows` (array of row arrays)
+- OR: renders children directly as `<tr>`/`<th>`/`<td>` (composition model TBD based on ergonomics)
+- Table cells must handle code content (InlineCode within cells)
+- Horizontally scrollable if content exceeds container width
+
+**Builder Chain Usage**:
+- Table container: base styles for width, overflow, border-collapse
+- Th: base styles for text-align, font-weight, padding, border-bottom
+- Td: base styles for padding, border-bottom, vertical-align
+- Groups: space, surface
+
+**Note**: Table may require multiple builder chain components (TableContainer, Th, Td) composed together rather than a single monolithic component.
+
+---
+
+### ColorModeToggle
+
+**Purpose**: Button that toggles between dark and light color modes. Both a docs feature (let users preview both modes) and an extraction stress test (exercises `[data-color-mode]` CSS selectors).
+
+**Functional Requirements**:
+- Toggles the `data-color-mode` attribute on the `<html>` element between `"dark"` and `"light"`
+- Displays current mode state (which mode is active)
+- Persists preference to localStorage (key: `animus-color-mode`)
+- On page load, reads localStorage and applies saved preference before first paint (to prevent flash of wrong mode)
+- Placed in the Shell nav bar (visible on all pages)
+
+**Builder Chain Usage**:
+- Base styles: cursor pointer, display, alignment
+- Groups: space, surface (for hover/active states via group props)
+
+**Stress Test Value**: Exercises the color mode token system. All semantic color tokens (primary, background, surface, text, etc.) must switch when the mode changes. This validates that the extraction pipeline correctly generates both `:root` and `[data-color-mode=light]` selector blocks.
+
+---
+
+### CodeExample
+
+**Purpose**: Composite component showing authored TypeScript alongside generated CSS output. The key teaching tool — makes the extraction model tangible.
+
+**Functional Requirements**:
+- Displays two code blocks:
+  - "Input" — the TypeScript builder chain (language: tsx)
+  - "Output" — the generated CSS (language: css)
+- Each block has a label indicating what it is
+- Code content is passed as string props (not live-evaluated — these are static examples)
+- Uses existing SyntaxBlock for syntax highlighting
+- Variant for layout: `stacked` (vertical, input above output) or `split` (side-by-side on wide screens)
+
+**Builder Chain Usage**:
+- Container: base styles for layout
+- Variant: `layout` with values `stacked` and `split`
+- Groups: space, surface
+
+**Composition**: Wraps two CodeFrame + SyntaxBlock instances. The component adds labeling and layout, not rendering logic.
+

+# Pages — Functional Spec
+
+## 1. Home (`/`)
+
+### Purpose
+First impression. Communicate what Animus is and why a developer should care, in under 10 seconds of scanning.
+
+### Functional Requirements
+
+- **Headline**: Library name + one-line descriptor conveying zero-runtime CSS extraction from TypeScript
+- **Input/Output demonstration**: Side-by-side or sequential display showing:
+  - The authored TypeScript (builder chain defining a component)
+  - The generated CSS output (layered, atomic, zero-runtime)
+  - This is the single most important element on the page — it makes the extraction model concrete
+- **Key differentiators**: 3-5 short statements covering:
+  - Zero runtime (no style injection, no recalc)
+  - Type-safe (IDE knows every valid token)
+  - Cascade layers (specificity solved by architecture)
+  - Rust extraction (OXC-based, fast)
+  - Design tokens (scales, color modes, responsive)
+- **Call to action**: Link to Getting Started (`/docs/start`)
+- **Secondary link**: Link to Why Animus (`/docs`) for deeper motivation
+
+### Content Tone
+Direct, confident, technical. Not marketing fluff. Show the code, state the facts.
+
+### Extraction Features Exercised
+- Layout components (Stack, Row, Slab)
+- Typography components (Display, Prose, Label, Mono)
+- Code display (SyntaxBlock)
+- Responsive props (font sizes, spacing)
+
+---
+
+## 2. Why Animus (`/docs`)
+
+### Purpose
+Explain the motivation. Name the problem, explain the approach, differentiate from alternatives. A developer who reads this page should understand WHY this library exists and whether it's right for their use case.
+
+### Functional Requirements
+
+- **The problem statement**: CSS-in-JS libraries (Emotion, styled-components) provided excellent DX — colocated styles, dynamic values, design tokens — but at the cost of runtime performance. Style injection on every render, serialization overhead, and incompatibility with React Server Components killed them.
+- **The failed alternatives**: Utility-first (Tailwind) solved the runtime problem but abandoned the component abstraction. CSS Modules solved scoping but lost token integration and type safety. The developer was forced to choose between DX and performance.
+- **The Animus approach**: Keep the authoring model (TypeScript, builder chain, design tokens, variants) but move ALL work to build time. A Rust pipeline walks the AST, resolves every value, and emits static CSS. The JavaScript disappears. What ships is platform CSS with zero runtime cost.
+- **The cascade contract**: Explain that each builder method maps to a CSS `@layer`. This isn't an implementation detail — it's the core architectural idea. Specificity is flat. Position in the cascade determines precedence. The TypeScript authoring and the CSS output operate on separate planes.
+- **When to use / when NOT to use**:
+  - Use when: building a React application with a design system, you want type-safe tokens and zero runtime
+  - Don't use when: you need fully dynamic styles computed at runtime from user input, you're not using React, you're not using Vite
+
+### Content Tone
+Narrative. Name the crisis, explain the response, be honest about tradeoffs.
+
+### Extraction Features Exercised
+- Layout components
+- Typography
+- Possibly color mode demonstration (showing dark/light context)
+
+---
+
+## 3. Getting Started (`/docs/start`)
+
+### Purpose
+Zero to styled component in 5 minutes. A developer following this page should have a working Animus setup by the end.
+
+### Functional Requirements
+
+- **Prerequisites**: State that the developer needs: React 18+, Vite 5+, bun (or npm/yarn — but examples use bun)
+- **Step 1 — Install**:
+  ```
+  bun add @animus-ui/system @animus-ui/vite-plugin
+  ```
+  Show only the two consumer packages. No internal packages.
+- **Step 2 — Configure Vite**:
+  ```typescript
+  import { animusExtract } from '@animus-ui/vite-plugin';
+  import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react';
+  import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
+
+  export default defineConfig({
+    plugins: [react(), animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })],
+  });
+  ```
+  Explain: `system` points to the file that exports your design system instance.
+- **Step 3 — Create your design system** (`src/ds.ts`):
+  - Show a minimal createTheme() with a few colors and a space scale
+  - Show createSystem() with one or two prop groups
+  - Explain: this file is the single source of truth for your design language
+  - Show the Theme augmentation (`declare module '@animus-ui/system'`)
+- **Step 4 — Import the virtual stylesheet**:
+  ```typescript
+  import 'virtual:animus/styles.css';
+  ```
+  In main.tsx or App.tsx. Explain: this virtual module contains all extracted CSS.
+- **Step 5 — Build your first component**:
+  ```typescript
+  const Button = ds
+    .styles({ display: 'inline-flex', alignItems: 'center', px: 16, py: 8, bg: 'primary', color: 'background' })
+    .variant({ prop: 'size', variants: { sm: { px: 8, py: 4, fontSize: 12 }, lg: { px: 24, py: 12, fontSize: 18 } } })
+    .asElement('button');
+  ```
+  Show usage: `<Button size="sm">Click me</Button>`
+- **Step 6 — Build and verify**:
+  ```
+  bun run build
+  ```
+  Show expected output: CSS file with `@layer base { ... } @layer variants { ... }`. Point out: zero JavaScript for styling. The component renders with class names.
+
+### Content Tone
+Instructional, concise. Each step is one action with one code block. No tangents.
+
+### Extraction Features Exercised
+- Code display (multiple SyntaxBlock instances with different languages)
+- Sequential layout (Stack with ordered steps)
+- InlineCode for package names, file paths, function names
+
+---
+
+## 4. Core Concepts (`/docs/concepts`)
+
+### Purpose
+Teach the mental model. After reading this page, a developer should understand: the builder chain, the cascade contract, design tokens, responsive props, and variants/states.
+
+### Functional Requirements
+
+#### Section: The Builder Chain
+- Show the full chain: `ds.styles().variant().states().groups().asElement()`
+- Explain each method's role:
+  - `.styles()` — base CSS declarations → `@layer base`
+  - `.variant()` — named variant options → `@layer variants`
+  - `.compound()` — conditional styles when multiple props match → `@layer compounds`
+  - `.states()` — boolean state toggles → `@layer states`
+  - `.groups()` — prop group bundles (space, arrange, text, etc.) → `@layer system`
+  - `.asElement()` — seals the chain, returns a React component
+- Show input/output: the builder chain code alongside the generated CSS with @layer annotations
+- Explain: the chain is fully type-safe. After .variant(), the returned component's props include the variant prop with its valid values.
+- Mention `.extend()`: any sealed component can be extended via `.extend()`, which returns a new builder chain pre-populated with the parent's configuration.
+
+#### Section: The Cascade Contract
+- List the 7 layers in order: `global → base → variants → compounds → states → system → custom`
+- Explain: specificity is flat (all selectors are single class). Layer position determines which styles win.
+- Explain: this means `.states()` always overrides `.compound()` which always overrides `.variant()` which always overrides `.styles()`. No `!important` needed. No specificity wars.
+- Show a concrete example: a component with a base background, a variant that changes it, a compound condition, and a state that overrides all.
+
+#### Section: Design Tokens
+- Explain createTheme() and scales (space, colors, fontSizes, etc.)
+- Show how token values are referenced: `bg: 'primary'` resolves through the color mode system to a CSS custom property
+- Explain color modes: `addColorModes('dark', { dark: {...}, light: {...} })` — semantic tokens that resolve differently per mode
+- Explain token aliasing: `{colors.ember/40}` syntax for alpha-modified color references
+- Show the generated CSS: `:root { --color-primary: ... }` and `[data-color-mode=light] { --color-primary: ... }`
+
+#### Section: Responsive Props
+- Explain the breakpoint-object syntax: `fontSize={{ _: 14, md: 24 }}`
+- `_` is the base (no media query), named keys map to breakpoints defined in createTheme()
+- Show generated CSS: base declaration + `@media (width >= 1024px) { ... }`
+- Explain: this works for any prop exposed via `.groups()`. It's not special syntax — it's how the system-layer props resolve.
+
+#### Section: Variants & States
+- **Variants**: Named options on a single prop. Show a 3-option variant (size: sm/md/lg) with the generated CSS.
+- **Compound Variants**: Conditions that apply when multiple props match. Show a compound variant with its condition and the generated `@layer compounds` CSS.
+- **States**: Boolean toggles. Show a `disabled` state and its generated `@layer states` CSS.
+- For each, show input (builder chain) → output (CSS).
+
+### Content Tone
+Explanatory, progressive. Start with the builder chain as the backbone, then layer on each concept. Code-heavy with annotations.
+
+### Extraction Features Exercised
+- Code display (multiple languages: tsx, css)
+- Headings with anchors (section navigation within page)
+- Tables (layer order reference)
+- Responsive props on layout
+- InlineCode throughout
+
+---
+
+## 5. API Reference (`/docs/api`)
+
+### Purpose
+Lookup reference. A developer who knows the concepts comes here to check function signatures, parameters, and return types.
+
+### Functional Requirements
+
+#### Section: createTheme()
+- Signature: `createTheme(config) → ThemeBuilder`
+- Config: `{ breakpoints }` — required, defines responsive breakpoints
+- Chain methods:
+  - `.addScale(name, factory)` — add a token scale (space, colors, fontSizes, etc.)
+  - `.addColors(colors)` — add raw color tokens
+  - `.addColorModes(defaultMode, modes)` — define semantic color aliases per mode
+  - `.build()` — seal and return the theme object
+- Show a complete example with 2-3 scales, colors, and color modes
+
+#### Section: createSystem()
+- Signature: `createSystem() → SystemBuilder`
+- Chain methods:
+  - `.withProperties(configurator)` — define prop groups via the PropertyBuilder
+  - `.withGlobalStyles(styles)` — define global CSS (reset, base, keyframes)
+  - `.build()` — seal and return the SystemInstance
+- PropertyBuilder methods:
+  - `.addGroup(name, props)` — define a named prop group
+  - `.build()` — seal the property configuration
+- Explain: the system is evaluated at build time in a subprocess. It has zero runtime cost.
+
+#### Section: Builder Chain (ds.styles → .asElement)
+- `.styles(declarations)` — base CSS object. Properties can use prop shorthand (bg, px, py, etc.) and token references.
+- `.variant({ prop, variants, defaultVariant? })` — named variant with options mapping to CSS objects
+- `.compoundVariant({ conditions, css })` — conditional styles when multiple props match. Conditions can be arrays for multi-match.
+- `.states({ [name]: css })` — boolean state toggles
+- `.groups({ [groupName]: true })` — enable prop group bundles
+- `.props({ [propName]: config })` — custom dynamic props (runtime CSS custom properties)
+- `.asElement(tag)` — seal the chain, return a typed React component
+- `.asComponent(Component)` — seal the chain, wrap an existing React component
+
+#### Section: createTransform()
+- Signature: `createTransform(name, fn) → Transform`
+- Purpose: custom value transformation for props (e.g., fluid typography, aspect ratios)
+- Show example: the `fluid` transform that generates `clamp()` values
+
+#### Section: Prop Groups (from @animus-ui/system/groups)
+- List all available groups with their CSS properties:
+  - `space` — margin, padding (all directional variants)
+  - `color` — color, backgroundColor, opacity
+  - `typography` — fontSize, fontFamily, fontWeight, lineHeight, letterSpacing, textAlign
+  - `layout` — width, height, display, overflow, min/max variants
+  - `flex` — alignItems, justifyContent, flexDirection, flexWrap, flex, gap
+  - `grid` — gridTemplateColumns/Rows, gridColumn/Row, gridGap
+  - `border` — border, borderWidth, borderColor, borderRadius
+  - `background` — background, backgroundImage, backgroundSize, backgroundPosition
+  - `shadows` — boxShadow, textShadow
+  - `positioning` — position, top/right/bottom/left, zIndex
+  - `transitions` — transition, transitionProperty/Duration/TimingFunction
+
+#### Section: Vite Plugin
+- `animusExtract(options)` — the Vite plugin factory
+- Options:
+  - `system: string` — path to the system module (required)
+  - `strict?: boolean` — throw on extraction failures (default false)
+  - `verbose?: boolean` — enable debug logging
+  - `packagePatterns?: string[]` — workspace packages to include in extraction
+  - `prefix?: string` — namespace prefix for all generated class names and CSS variables
+  - `layers?: string[]` — custom @layer declaration (must contain all 6 Animus layers as subsequence)
+  - `minify?: boolean` — enable CSS minification via Lightning CSS (default true in production)
+
+### Content Tone
+Reference-style. Function signatures, parameter tables, short examples. Not narrative — lookup-oriented.
+
+### Extraction Features Exercised
+- Tables (parameter/option tables)
+- Code display (signatures, examples)
+- Headings with anchors (deep linking to specific APIs)
+- Lists (prop group property lists)
+- InlineCode throughout

+# Routing & Layout — Functional Spec
+
+## Router
+
+- React Router v7 (already installed as react-router-dom@7.13.2)
+- BrowserRouter at the app root
+- All routes wrapped in a shared Shell layout component via `<Outlet />`
+
+## Route Map
+
+| Path | Component | Loading | Description |
+|------|-----------|---------|-------------|
+| `/` | Home | Lazy | Landing page with pitch |
+| `/docs` | Why | Lazy | Motivation and overview |
+| `/docs/start` | GettingStarted | Lazy | Installation and first component |
+| `/docs/concepts` | Concepts | Lazy | Builder chain, cascade, tokens |
+| `/docs/api` | ApiReference | Lazy | Function and method reference |
+
+## Layout Nesting
+
+```
+<BrowserRouter>
+  <Routes>
+    <Route element={<Shell />}>          ← top nav, always visible
+      <Route index element={<Home />} />
+      <Route path="docs" element={<DocsLayout />}>  ← sidebar, docs-only
+        <Route index element={<Why />} />
+        <Route path="start" element={<GettingStarted />} />
+        <Route path="concepts" element={<Concepts />} />
+        <Route path="api" element={<ApiReference />} />
+      </Route>
+    </Route>
+  </Routes>
+</BrowserRouter>
+```
+
+## Layout Components
+
+### Shell
+- Top-level layout wrapping all routes
+- Contains: top navigation bar, `<Outlet />` for page content
+- Navigation items: Home link (brand), Docs link
+- Persists across all route transitions
+
+### DocsLayout
+- Nested layout for `/docs/*` routes only
+- Contains: Sidebar navigation, `<Outlet />` for docs page content
+- Sidebar lists all doc pages with active state highlighting
+- Sidebar uses NavLink from react-router-dom for active detection
+
+## Code Splitting Requirements
+
+- Every page component must be lazy-loaded via `React.lazy(() => import(...))`
+- Each lazy route wrapped in `<Suspense>` (no fallback required for MVP — content is small)
+- Build output must produce separate JS chunks per page
+- Shared components used across pages must be extracted to a common chunk by Vite automatically (no manual chunk configuration)
+
+## Virtual CSS Module
+
+- `virtual:animus/styles.css` imported once in main.tsx
+- Single CSS file in build output regardless of JS chunk count
+- All component styles available immediately (no lazy CSS loading, no FOUC)
+
+## Navigation Behavior
+
+- Client-side navigation between routes (no full page reloads)
+- Browser back/forward must work correctly
+- Direct URL access to any route must work (requires SPA fallback in hosting — already handled by Vite preview)
+- Active nav state must reflect current route

+# Visual Design: "Forged"
+
+## Concept
+
+A forge in darkness. Precision tools, no ornament. The only light comes from heated metal. The void is the workspace; ember is the signal. Everything unnecessary has been burned away.
+
+The editorial serif era is dead. What's left is the terminal that grew up — monospace for structure, clean sans for readability, fire only where it matters.
+
+## Typography
+
+### Font Stack Changes
+
+| Role | Before | After | Rationale |
+|------|--------|-------|-----------|
+| Display/Headings | Instrument Serif (editorial) | IBM Plex Mono Bold (already loaded) | Monospace headings tie to code blocks. Everything feels forged from the same metal. |
+| Body | Newsreader (editorial serif) | Geist Sans | Clean, modern, designed for developer tools. Excellent readability at body sizes. |
+| Logo | Major Mono Display | Major Mono Display | **SACROSANCT.** No change. |
+| Code | IBM Plex Mono | IBM Plex Mono | Already perfect. No change. |
+
+### Token Updates (`ds.ts` fonts scale)
+
+```typescript
+fonts: {
+  display: "'IBM Plex Mono', monospace",     // was Instrument Serif
+  logo: "'Major Mono Display', monospace",    // unchanged
+  body: "'Geist', sans-serif",               // was Newsreader
+  mono: "'IBM Plex Mono', monospace",         // unchanged
+}
+```
+
+### Heading Treatment
+
+- **h2**: IBM Plex Mono, 500 weight, 20px, `letterSpacing: '-0.01em'`, `color: text`. Clean, no decoration. The monospace IS the decoration.
+- **h3**: IBM Plex Mono, 500 weight, 16px, `color: textMuted`. Subtler weight, recedes slightly.
+- Anchor links: on hover, a subtle `color: primary` transition on a `#` symbol to the left (positioned absolutely, appears on hover).
+
+### Body Text
+
+- Geist Sans, 400 weight, 15px, line-height 1.7, `color: textMuted`.
+- Body text is intentionally muted — the code examples are the real content. Prose supports but doesn't compete.
+
+### Code Typography
+
+- Inline code: IBM Plex Mono, 13px, `bg: coal`, `color: spark`, `px: 6px`, `py: 2px`. The spark-on-coal treatment: gold code on dark surface. Sharp, readable, stands out in body text.
+- Code blocks: IBM Plex Mono, 13px, line-height 1.7, `bg: carbon`, full-width with `px: 24, py: 20`. No border. The darkness IS the container.
+
+## Color Application
+
+### Unchanged
+
+All color tokens and color modes remain exactly as defined. The palette is already the forge.
+
+### Design Principles
+
+1. **Ember is reserved for signal.** Primary actions, active states, the logo, critical emphasis. Never decorative.
+2. **Spark for code.** Inline code tokens, syntax highlights, values that matter. Gold on coal.
+3. **Void is negative space.** The background is not empty — it's the darkness of the forge. Don't fill it.
+4. **Ash for structure.** Borders, dividers, rules. Barely there. The 1px border at `ash` color is a hairline crack in the void.
+5. **Smoke for secondary text.** Readable but receded. Descriptions, labels, metadata.
+
+### Nav Bar
+
+- `bg: background` (void in dark mode, cream in light)
+- Bottom border: 1px solid ash — hairline. Not prominent.
+- Brand: `color: primary` in Major Mono Display. The only fire in the nav.
+- Nav links: IBM Plex Mono 12px, uppercase, `letterSpacing: 0.1em`, `color: textMuted`.
+- Active link: `color: primary`. No underline, no background. Just the color shift.
+- ColorModeToggle: right-aligned in nav. Minimal — a small monospace label ("dark" / "light") that toggles.
+
+### Sidebar
+
+- Width: 200px fixed. Sticky, top offset accounting for nav height.
+- No background. No border-right. Just links floating in the void.
+- Links: IBM Plex Mono 13px, `color: textMuted`. Stacked vertically with 8px gap.
+- Active link: `color: primary`, plus a 2px left border in ember (`borderLeft: '2px solid'`, `borderColor: 'primary'`). The ember mark — a thin line of fire indicating position.
+- Hover: `color: text`. Subtle warmth.
+
+### Code Examples (Input/Output)
+
+- **Container**: No visible border. Two blocks stacked or split, separated by a 1px ash line or a labeled gap.
+- **Labels**: "surface" / "substrate" (from the existing showcase metaphor) — IBM Plex Mono 11px, uppercase, `letterSpacing: 0.3em`, `color: textMuted`. Whisper-level labels.
+- **Code blocks**: `bg: carbon` (not coal — slightly lighter than void for depth). Spark (#FFB627) for string values, ember (#FF2800) for keywords would be ideal but syntax highlighting is handled by prism-react-renderer's theme.
+- **Split layout**: On wide screens (md+), input left, output right, equal width. 1px ash vertical divider or 16px gap.
+
+### Tables
+
+- No outer border. No zebra striping.
+- Header row: `borderBottom: '2px solid'`, `borderColor: 'ash'`. IBM Plex Mono 12px, 500 weight, uppercase, `letterSpacing: 0.05em`, `color: textMuted`.
+- Body rows: `borderBottom: '1px solid'`, `borderColor: 'ash'` (the hairline). Geist 14px, `color: text`.
+- Cell padding: `py: 12, px: 16`. Generous but not loose.
+- InlineCode within cells inherits the spark-on-coal treatment.
+
+### Lists
+
+- Unordered: no bullets. Instead, an `ember` colored dash (`—`) as list marker via `::marker { color: var(--color-primary); content: '— '; }` or custom `list-style`.
+- Ordered: numbers in `color: primary`. The fire marks the count.
+- Item spacing: `mb: 8`. Tight but breathable.
+
+## Page-Level Design
+
+### Home (`/`)
+
+- Full-viewport hero with centered logo (sacrosanct — GlowText + gradient animation).
+- Below hero: The input/output CodeExample. Large, prominent, the centerpiece.
+- Key differentiators: a simple grid of 3-5 items. Each item: a monospace label in ember + one line of Geist body text. No cards, no icons, no decoration. Just facts.
+- CTA: A text link in ember. "Get started →". No button. Buttons are for apps. This is a document.
+
+### Docs Pages
+
+- Two-column layout: 200px sidebar + fluid content area.
+- Content max-width: 48rem (768px). Generous but bounded.
+- Section spacing: 64px between major sections, 32px between subsections.
+- The content area is where Geist body text lives. The sidebar and headings are monospace. Two type worlds, one forge.
+
+## Motion
+
+- **Page transitions**: None. Route changes are instant. Docs sites should never animate between pages.
+- **Reveal animations**: Keep existing `RevealBlock` for the Home page hero. Not used on docs pages — content should be immediately readable.
+- **Hover states**: `transition: color 0.15s ease` on nav links and sidebar links. That's it. No scale, no glow, no drama. The fire metaphor is in the color, not the motion.
+- **Logo effects**: GlowText gradient animation (`flow 5s linear infinite`) and ember glow (`ember 3s ease-in-out infinite`) — SACROSANCT. These are the only animations on the site that matter.
+
+## Film Grain
+
+The existing `body::after` film grain overlay (fractal noise at 0.04 opacity) STAYS. It's the texture of darkness — the forge atmosphere. It's barely visible but subconsciously adds depth.
+
+## Font Loading
+
+Add Geist via Google Fonts or self-hosted. It's available at `https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Geist:wght@300;400;500;700` or from the Vercel CDN.
+
+Update the showcase's `index.html` to load Geist alongside the existing font imports.
+
+## Color Mode Toggle
+
+- Position: right side of nav bar, after nav links.
+- Visual: monospace text label showing current mode. IBM Plex Mono 11px, uppercase, `letterSpacing: 0.15em`.
+- Dark mode shows "dark" in textMuted, light mode shows "light" in textMuted.
+- Hover: `color: primary`. Click toggles.
+- No icon (sun/moon). Text only. The monospace label IS the interface.
+- Separator: a 1px vertical line in ash between the nav links and the toggle, 16px margin on each side.
+
+## Summary
+
+The design removes all editorial warmth (serifs, decorative flourishes) and replaces it with forge precision. Monospace headings ground everything in the code world. Clean sans body text recedes to let code examples speak. Fire (ember, spark) is used surgically — only for signal. Everything else is void, ash, and smoke.
+
+The logo's fire effects remain the emotional peak of the site. Everything else serves them by contrast.

+## Context
+
+Three-lens DX review identified bugs and hygiene items in the consumer surface. All items are scoped, low-risk, and independently deployable. No architectural changes — these are fixes within existing patterns.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Fix inline scale serialization so `withProperties()` entries with MapScale/ArrayScale objects reach Rust
+- Eliminate deepMerge duplication
+- Remove DX traps (vestigial `.build()`, stale comments)
+- Harden build pipeline (strict mode throw, globalThis namespace)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- No new features or API surface changes
+- No documentation work (separate effort)
+- No extraction pipeline changes beyond receiving already-supported scale formats
+- No changes to the component builder chain API (beyond `.build()` deprecation)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Inline scale serialization — JSON.stringify the scale object
+
+`SystemBuilder.serialize()` currently guards `typeof scale === 'string'`. Extend to serialize inline scales as JSON when they're objects or arrays. The Rust `PropConfig` struct already handles `Scale::Map` and `Scale::Array` via serde — the gap is purely in the TS serializer.
+
+**Why not a new serialization format?** The existing JSON format works. Rust already parses object scales from the `config.scale` field via serde's tagged enum. We just need to pass them through.
+
+Also serialize the `negative: true` flag — same gap, same fix pattern.
+
+### 2. deepMerge — extract to `packages/system/src/utils/deepMerge.ts`
+
+Character-identical copies exist at `Animus.ts:26-46` and `AnimusExtended.ts:22-42`. Extract to a shared module, import from both. No behavioral change.
+
+### 3. `.build()` — remove the method entirely
+
+The method returns `(() => ({})) as (props) => CSSObject` — a no-op with a lying type signature. It exists for the `.extend()` pattern, but `.extend()` is also available on `.asElement()`, `.asComponent()`, and `.asClass()` returns. The only consumer of `.build()` is the `extend` binding on its return value, which can move to the other terminals.
+
+**Why remove rather than deprecate?** A deprecated method still appears in autocomplete and can still trap new users. The method has no legitimate use case in the extraction-based architecture. Clean removal is better than deprecation noise.
+
+### 4. globalThis — scope with plugin instance ID
+
+Replace bare `globalThis.__animus_system_resolve_script` with a closure-scoped variable in the plugin factory function. The resolve script path doesn't need to be global — it's only used within the same plugin instance's lifecycle.
+
+For `__animus_component_sheet__` (HMR adopted stylesheet): namespace with a hash derived from the system module path, e.g., `__animus_sheet_${hash}__`.
+
+### 5. Strict mode throw — check `options.strict` on subprocess failure
+
+The vite plugin's `loadSystem()`, `resolveGlobalStyles()`, and transform resolution wrap subprocess calls in try/catch and log warnings on failure. When `options.strict` is `true`, these should throw instead of warn.
+
+### 6. Stale comment — just delete it
+
+Card.tsx lines 12-14 describe a constraint that `scan_compose_calls` (session 24) already resolved. Remove the comment. Keep the exports (they serve module organization, just not extraction necessity).
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **`.build()` removal is technically breaking** → But no known consumer uses it. The method returns an empty object. Anyone calling it is already getting nothing useful. Risk: near zero.
+- **globalThis rename could break running dev servers** → Only on HMR hot-path. A dev server restart resolves it. Not a deployment concern.
+- **Inline scale serialization could surface latent Rust parsing issues** → Mitigated by the fact that Rust already handles `Scale::Map` and `Scale::Array` in its serde definitions. The data path exists, it's just never been fed.

+## Why
+
+Three-lens DX review (agnostic, adversarial, evangelist) of the consumer surface identified two real bugs and several hygiene items. The bugs affect serialization correctness for inline scales and create maintenance risk from code duplication. The hygiene items are low-effort fixes that eliminate DX traps and stale artifacts. Fixing these now hardens the system before broader adoption.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Fix MapScale/ArrayScale serialization in `SystemBuilder.serialize()` — inline object/array scales are silently dropped when serializing prop configs to Rust. The Rust side already handles them; the TS serializer only passes string scale references.
+- Extract duplicate `deepMerge` from `Animus.ts` and `AnimusExtended.ts` into a shared utility module.
+- Deprecate or remove vestigial `.build()` method on the component builder chain — it returns `() => ({})` cast to `(props) => CSSObject`, which is a type-level lie.
+- Namespace `globalThis` keys in vite-plugin with system path hash to prevent multi-build collisions.
+- Remove stale comment in `Card.tsx:12-14` that claims slots need export for extraction — `scan_compose_calls` already handles this.
+- Make subprocess failures throw in strict mode instead of warning silently.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `inline-scale-serialization`: Fix SystemBuilder.serialize() to pass inline MapScale/ArrayScale objects to Rust extractor alongside string scale references
+- `build-pipeline-hardening`: Strict mode subprocess failures, globalThis namespacing, stale artifact cleanup
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+## Impact
+

+## Context
+
+`createSystem()` currently uses a nested builder pattern: `SystemBuilder` delegates property registration to `PropertyBuilder` via a callback in `.withProperties()`. This creates two chains, two `.build()` calls, and an inner class (`PropertyBuilder`, 37 lines) that exists solely to accumulate prop groups before returning `{ propRegistry, groupRegistry }`.
+
+The component chain method `.groups()` doesn't match its cascade layer name `@layer system`. Props like `gap` naturally belong in both `flex` and `grid` groups but the current architecture makes this awkward — JS object spread resolves duplicates by last-write-wins, which works accidentally but isn't structurally sound.
+
+This is the last API cleanup before v0.10 finalization.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Single builder chain: `createSystem().addGroup(...).addGroup(...).addProps({...}).build()`
+- Delete `PropertyBuilder` class entirely
+- Rename `.groups()` to `.system()` on component chain (match `@layer system`)
+- Support props in multiple groups via overlap tolerance
+- Support ungrouped props via `.addProps()`
+- Mixed namespace in `.system()`: both group names and individual prop names
+- Type-level enforcement that group names don't collide with prop names
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Renaming `createSystem` factory (separate future concern)
+- Scale rebinding / preset distribution (separate future concern)
+- Changing `serialize()` placement (handled by `separate-global-styles`)
+- Changing the cascade layer order or adding new layers
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. `.addGroup()` and `.addProps()` directly on SystemBuilder
+
+**Choice:** SystemBuilder absorbs both methods. `.addGroup(name, config)` registers props AND assigns them to a named group. `.addProps(config)` registers props without grouping.
+
+**Why:** Eliminates the PropertyBuilder class and the callback wrapper. The builder accumulates `PropReg` and `GroupReg` generics directly, returning `new SystemBuilder<NextPropReg, NextGroupReg>` from each call (same `#checkpoint` pattern as ThemeBuilder).
+
+**Alternative considered:** Separate registration from grouping (`.register()` for all props, `.addGroup()` for just naming subsets). Rejected because it doubles the API surface and forces consumers to express the same information twice. The current pattern of "addGroup does both" is ergonomic — we just need to add overlap tolerance.
+
+### 2. Overlap tolerance via definition equality
+
+**Choice:** When a prop key appears in a subsequent `.addGroup()` call with an identical definition, it's added to the new group without error. If definitions differ, it's a type error.
+
+**Why:** Pre-built groups (`flex`, `grid`, `layout`) intentionally share props like `gap`, `alignItems`, `justifyContent`. The consumer writes `.addGroup('flex', { ...flex }).addGroup('grid', { ...grid })` and both groups naturally contain `gap`. Since the definitions come from the same source objects, they're structurally identical.
+
+**Type-level enforcement:** At the TypeScript level, this is enforced by extending the prop registry additively. If a key already exists in `PropReg`, the new definition must be assignable to the existing one. The generic constraint on `addGroup` checks `Conf[K] extends PropReg[K]` for overlapping keys.
+
+**Runtime behavior:** The prop registry stores one definition per key. The group registry maps group names to arrays of keys. A key appearing in multiple groups is just multiple array entries pointing to the same prop definition.
+
+### 3. `.system()` replaces `.groups()` with mixed namespace
+
+**Choice:** The component chain method is renamed from `.groups()` to `.system()`. It accepts an array of identifiers that can be either group names or individual prop names.
+
+**Resolution order:** When the consumer writes `.system(['surface', 'ratio'])`:
+1. Check if the identifier is a group name → activate all props in that group
+2. Check if the identifier is a prop name → activate just that prop
+3. Neither → type error (identifier doesn't exist in the system)
+
+**Type-level:** The accepted values are `keyof GroupReg | keyof PropReg`. The collision constraint (group names ≠ prop names) ensures each identifier resolves unambiguously.
+
+**Why "system":** It matches the cascade layer name `@layer system`. The chain methods already map to layers: `.styles()` → base, `.variant()` → variants, `.compound()` → compounds, `.states()` → states, `.system()` → system, `.props()` → custom. This naming makes the cascade readable in the chain.
+
+### 4. Collision constraint: group names ∩ prop names = ∅
+
+**Choice:** The `addGroup` method's generic constraints prevent naming a group with the same key as any registered prop.
+
+**Implementation:** `addGroup<Name extends string>` constrains `Name extends Exclude<string, keyof PropReg>`. If you try `.addGroup('bg', {...})` and `bg` is already a registered prop, TypeScript errors.
+
+**Why:** Without this constraint, `.system(['bg'])` is ambiguous — does it mean "the group named bg" or "the individual prop bg"? Disjoint namespaces prevent this.
+
+**Practical risk:** Low. Group names tend to be abstract categories (`surface`, `text`, `arrange`) while prop names tend to be CSS-ish (`bg`, `color`, `fontSize`). Natural naming conventions prevent collision. The type constraint is cheap insurance.
+
+### 5. Rust crate updates
+
+**Choice:** Update `chain_walker.rs` to recognize `"system"` instead of `"groups"` as a chain method name. Update `lib.rs` to process `"system"` stage arguments identically to current `"groups"` processing.
+
+**Why:** The Rust crate parses the chain method names from source code. The rename must be reflected there or extraction silently skips the stage.
+
+**Scope:** The change is purely a string rename in the method detection list and the stage processing match arm. The group resolution logic (parsing `{ space: true, layout: true }` arguments) remains identical — the argument structure doesn't change, only which prop names get activated needs to support individual props appearing without a group wrapper.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **Breaking change across the entire consumer surface:** Every `.groups()` call becomes `.system()`. Every `createSystem().withProperties(...)` becomes `createSystem().addGroup(...)`. Mitigated by: showcase is the only known consumer, and this is pre-v0.10.
+- **Overlap detection at runtime vs type level:** Structural equality of `Prop` objects is hard to check at the type level (TS doesn't have deep equality constraints). Runtime check (shallow comparison of property/scale/transform/negative) catches mismatches. Type-level check is best-effort via `extends`.
+- **Rust crate string rename:** If any Rust test fixtures use `.groups()`, they need updating. Search-and-replace, but must be thorough.
+- **Mixed namespace type complexity:** `keyof GroupReg | keyof PropReg` in `.system()` could produce large union types. In practice, systems have ~6 groups and ~60 props — this is manageable for TypeScript.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- **Factory naming:** `createSystem()` collides with `.system()` on the component chain. The consumer can destructure to any name, but the collision is conceptually awkward. Defer to a separate naming change?
+- **Pre-built group distribution:** The pre-built groups in `@animus-ui/system/groups` have hardcoded scale bindings (`scale: 'colors'`, `scale: 'space'`). A future `system-prop-presets` change could add rebinding/scoping. Not in scope here.

+## Why
+
+The `createSystem` API has a nested builder-within-a-builder: `.withProperties((p) => p.addGroup(...).addGroup(...).build())` requires a callback, an inner `PropertyBuilder`, and an inner `.build()` call — two chains, two terminals. This is the last clunky piece before the system API is finalized for v0.10. Additionally, the component chain method `.groups()` doesn't match its cascade layer name (`@layer system`), and props cannot appear in multiple groups without accidental-correctness via JS object spread.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **BREAKING**: Remove `PropertyBuilder` class — `.addGroup()` and `.addProps()` move directly onto `SystemBuilder`
+- **BREAKING**: Remove `.withProperties()` callback wrapper — groups are added via direct chaining
+- **BREAKING**: Rename `.groups()` to `.system()` on the component builder chain to match `@layer system`
+- Add `.addProps()` method on `SystemBuilder` for registering ungrouped props (registered for token resolution and transforms, but not activatable as a named group)
+- **Overlap tolerance**: Props with identical definitions can appear in multiple `.addGroup()` calls — the prop is registered once but belongs to all groups that include it
+- **Mixed namespace activation**: `.system()` on components accepts both group names and individual prop names (e.g., `.system(['surface', 'ratio'])` — `surface` is a group, `ratio` is a single prop)
+- **Collision constraint**: Group names and prop names must be disjoint — the builder enforces this at the type level to prevent ambiguity in the `.system()` activation namespace
+- Single chain, single `.build()`, single rhythm
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `flat-system-builder`: Flattened SystemBuilder with direct `.addGroup()` / `.addProps()` chaining, overlap-tolerant prop registration, and single `.build()` terminal
+- `system-layer-activation`: Renamed `.system()` method on component chain with mixed namespace (group names + individual prop names)
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+<!-- No existing openspec specs to modify -->

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: addGroup directly on SystemBuilder
+`SystemBuilder` SHALL expose an `.addGroup(name, config)` method that registers props and assigns them to a named group in a single call. No callback wrapper or inner builder required.
+
+#### Scenario: Single group registration
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `createSystem().addGroup('surface', { bg: { property: 'backgroundColor', scale: 'colors' } })`
+- **THEN** `bg` SHALL be registered in the prop registry with the given definition
+- **AND** `bg` SHALL be assigned to the group `'surface'` in the group registry
+
+#### Scenario: Chained group registration
+- **WHEN** a consumer chains `.addGroup('surface', {...}).addGroup('text', {...}).addGroup('space', space)`
+- **THEN** all props from all groups SHALL be registered in a single flat prop registry
+- **AND** each group SHALL map to its respective prop keys in the group registry
+- **AND** the chain SHALL terminate with a single `.build()` call
+
+#### Scenario: Single build terminal
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `createSystem().addGroup(...).addGroup(...).build()`
+- **THEN** there SHALL be exactly one `.build()` call in the chain
+- **AND** no inner `.build()` or callback SHALL be required
+
+### Requirement: addProps for ungrouped registration
+`SystemBuilder` SHALL expose an `.addProps(config)` method that registers props without assigning them to any group.
+
+#### Scenario: Ungrouped prop registration
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `.addProps({ ratio: { property: 'aspectRatio', transform: ratio } })`
+- **THEN** `ratio` SHALL be registered in the prop registry
+- **AND** `ratio` SHALL NOT appear in any group in the group registry
+
+#### Scenario: Ungrouped props participate in style resolution
+- **WHEN** an ungrouped prop like `ratio` is registered
+- **THEN** it SHALL be available in `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.compound()`, and `.states()` for token resolution and transform application
+- **AND** the extraction pipeline SHALL resolve its values using the prop config
+
+### Requirement: Overlap-tolerant prop registration
+When the same prop key appears in multiple `.addGroup()` calls with identical definitions, the prop SHALL be registered once and belong to all groups that include it.
+
+#### Scenario: Identical prop in two groups
+- **WHEN** `gap` appears in both `.addGroup('flex', { ...flex })` and `.addGroup('grid', { ...grid })` with identical definitions
+- **THEN** `gap` SHALL be registered once in the prop registry
+- **AND** `gap` SHALL appear in both `'flex'` and `'grid'` groups
+- **AND** no error or warning SHALL be produced
+
+#### Scenario: Conflicting prop definitions
+- **WHEN** a prop key appears in two `.addGroup()` calls with different definitions (different property, scale, or transform)
+- **THEN** a type error SHALL be produced at compile time
+- **AND** a runtime error SHALL be thrown with a descriptive message naming the conflicting prop and groups
+
+### Requirement: Group names must not collide with prop names
+The builder SHALL enforce that group names and prop names are disjoint sets to prevent ambiguity in the activation namespace.
+
+#### Scenario: Group name collides with existing prop
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `.addGroup('bg', { ... })` and `bg` is already registered as a prop name
+- **THEN** a type error SHALL be produced at compile time
+
+#### Scenario: Prop name collides with existing group
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `.addGroup('surface', { surface: { property: 'background' } })` where `surface` is already a group name
+- **THEN** a type error SHALL be produced at compile time indicating the prop name `surface` conflicts with the group name
+
+### Requirement: PropertyBuilder is removed
+The `PropertyBuilder` class and `.withProperties()` method SHALL be removed from the public API.
+
+#### Scenario: PropertyBuilder not exported
+- **WHEN** a consumer imports from `@animus-ui/system`
+- **THEN** `PropertyBuilder` SHALL NOT be available as an export
+
+#### Scenario: withProperties not available
+- **WHEN** a consumer accesses a `SystemBuilder` instance
+- **THEN** `.withProperties()` SHALL NOT exist as a method
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: PropertyBuilder class
+**Reason**: Replaced by direct `.addGroup()` and `.addProps()` on SystemBuilder. The inner builder added ceremony without structural benefit.
+**Migration**: Replace `.withProperties((p) => p.addGroup(...).build())` with direct `.addGroup(...)` on the SystemBuilder chain.
+
+### Requirement: withProperties callback wrapper
+**Reason**: The callback boundary served no purpose — PropertyBuilder was disposable, used once within the callback and discarded.
+**Migration**: Remove the callback and inner `.build()`. Chain `.addGroup()` calls directly on SystemBuilder.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Rename groups to system on component chain
+The component builder chain method `.groups()` SHALL be renamed to `.system()` to match the cascade layer name `@layer system`.
+
+#### Scenario: Method name on component chain
+- **WHEN** a consumer builds a component using the builder chain
+- **THEN** the method to activate system props SHALL be `.system()`, not `.groups()`
+- **AND** `.groups()` SHALL NOT exist on the chain
+
+#### Scenario: Cascade layer alignment
+- **WHEN** a consumer reads the component chain `.styles({...}).variant({...}).system([...]).props({...})`
+- **THEN** each method SHALL correspond to its cascade layer: styles→base, variant→variants, system→system, props→custom
+
+### Requirement: Mixed namespace activation
+`.system()` SHALL accept an array of identifiers that can be either group names or individual prop names.
+
+#### Scenario: Group name activation
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `.system(['surface', 'text'])`
+- **THEN** all props in the `surface` group and all props in the `text` group SHALL be activated as callsite React props
+
+#### Scenario: Individual prop activation
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `.system(['ratio'])` and `ratio` is a registered prop (ungrouped or in any group)
+- **THEN** only the `ratio` prop SHALL be activated as a callsite React prop
+
+#### Scenario: Mixed group and prop activation
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `.system(['surface', 'ratio'])` where `surface` is a group name and `ratio` is a prop name
+- **THEN** all props in the `surface` group AND the individual `ratio` prop SHALL be activated
+
+#### Scenario: Unknown identifier
+- **WHEN** a consumer passes an identifier to `.system()` that is neither a group name nor a registered prop name
+- **THEN** a type error SHALL be produced at compile time
+
+### Requirement: Type safety for system activation
+The `.system()` method SHALL accept only valid group names and prop names as determined by the system's `GroupReg` and `PropReg` generics.
+
+#### Scenario: Autocomplete shows available identifiers
+- **WHEN** a consumer types `.system([` in an IDE with TypeScript
+- **THEN** autocomplete SHALL suggest all group names and all individual prop names from the system
+
+#### Scenario: Prop activated by group and individually
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `.system(['surface', 'bg'])` and `bg` is already in the `surface` group
+- **THEN** `bg` SHALL be activated (redundant but not an error)
+- **AND** no duplicate prop SHALL appear in the component's type
+
+### Requirement: Rust crate recognizes system method
+The extraction pipeline SHALL recognize `.system()` as the chain method for system prop activation, replacing `.groups()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Extraction detects system stage
+- **WHEN** the Rust crate parses a component chain containing `.system({ surface: true })`
+- **THEN** it SHALL detect the `system` stage and resolve activated props identically to the former `groups` stage
+
+#### Scenario: Individual prop in system stage
+- **WHEN** the Rust crate parses `.system({ surface: true, ratio: true })`
+- **THEN** it SHALL activate all props from the `surface` group AND the individual `ratio` prop

+## Combined: separate-global-styles + flatten-system-builder
+
+Single implementation pass. Both proposals target SystemBuilder. Phases ordered by dependency.
+
+## 1. SystemBuilder Core Rewrite
+
+- [x] 1.1 Remove `withGlobalStyles` method, `#globalStyles` field, and `GlobalStylesConfig` type/interface from SystemBuilder.ts
+- [x] 1.2 Remove `withProperties` method and `PropertyBuilder` import from SystemBuilder.ts
+- [x] 1.3 Add `.addGroup(name, config)` method directly on SystemBuilder — accumulates PropReg + GroupReg via #checkpoint pattern, returns new SystemBuilder instance
+- [x] 1.4 Add `.addProps(config)` method on SystemBuilder — registers props without group assignment, accumulates PropReg only
+- [x] 1.5 Implement overlap tolerance in `.addGroup()` — when prop key exists in PropReg, allow if definition matches (shallow check: property, scale, transform, negative), error if mismatch
+- [x] 1.6 Implement collision constraint — addGroup generic constrains Name to `Exclude<string, keyof PropReg>`, preventing group names that collide with prop names
+- [x] 1.7 Change `.build()` return type to `{ system: SystemInstance, createGlobalStyles: GlobalStylesFactory }`
+- [x] 1.8 Implement `createGlobalStyles` factory closure in `.build()` — captures propRegistry and transforms, accepts flat `Record<string, Record<string, any>>`, returns `GlobalStyleBlock`
+- [x] 1.9 Remove `globalStyles` from `SerializedConfig` interface and `serializeInstance` function
+- [x] 1.10 Delete `PropertyBuilder.ts`
+
+## 2. Types and Exports
+
+- [x] 2.1 Define `GlobalStylesFactory` type: `(styles: Record<string, Record<string, any>>) => GlobalStyleBlock`
+- [x] 2.2 Define `GlobalStyleBlock` type with serialization method for the plugin
+- [x] 2.3 Update `packages/system/src/index.ts` — remove PropertyBuilder + GlobalStylesConfig exports, add GlobalStylesFactory + GlobalStyleBlock exports
+- [x] 2.4 Update activation types for mixed namespace: `.system()` accepts `(keyof GroupReg | keyof PropReg)[]`
+
+## 3. Component Chain Rename
+
+- [x] 3.1 Rename `.groups()` → `.system()` in `Animus.ts` — method name, type-state class (AnimusWithGroups → AnimusWithSystem or equivalent)
+- [x] 3.2 Rename `.groups()` → `.system()` in `AnimusExtended.ts`
+- [x] 3.3 Implement mixed namespace resolution in `.system()` — identifier is either a group name (activate all props in group) or a prop name (activate that single prop)
+
+## 4. Rust Crate
+
+- [x] 4.1 Update `chain_walker.rs` CHAIN_METHODS: `"groups"` → `"system"`
+- [x] 4.2 Update `lib.rs` match arm: `"groups"` → `"system"` in stage processing
+- [x] 4.3 Add individual prop activation: when system stage key doesn't match a group name, check if it's a direct prop name in propConfig
+- [x] 4.4 Update `transform_emitter.rs` test fixture (line 744): `.groups(` → `.system(`
+- [x] 4.5 Update `chain_walker.rs` test fixtures (lines 400, 549): `.groups(` → `.system(`
+- [x] 4.6 Update `lib.rs` doc comment (line 353): `.groups()` → `.system()`
+
+## 5. Vite Plugin
+
+- [x] 5.1 Update `resolve-global-styles.ts` — discover global style blocks from module exports instead of `serialize().globalStyles`
+- [x] 5.2 Update `index.ts` buildStart — handle new global styles discovery path (look for exported GlobalStyleBlock instances)
+- [x] 5.3 Remove `parsed.globalStyles.reset` / `parsed.globalStyles.global` branching — process all blocks uniformly
+- [x] 5.4 Update system load subprocess script to handle `{ system, createGlobalStyles }` destructured build result
+
+## 6. Showcase Migration
+
+- [x] 6.1 Rewrite `packages/showcase/src/ds.ts` — flat `.addGroup()` chain, destructure build result, move global styles to `createGlobalStyles()` calls
+- [x] 6.2 Rename `.groups({...})` → `.system({...})` across all showcase components (~30 files)
+- [x] 6.3 Rename `.groups({...})` → `.system({...})` in `packages/ui/src/` elements (~10 files)
+
+## 7. Test & Fixture Updates
+
+- [x] 7.1 Update `packages/system/__tests__/test-system.ts` — flat chain, no withProperties
+- [x] 7.2 Update `packages/system/__tests__/types.test-d.tsx` — .groups() → .system(), withProperties → addGroup
+- [x] 7.3 Update extraction test fixtures: `system-props.tsx`, `variant-groups.tsx`, `custom-props.tsx`, `negative-margin.tsx`, `extension-parent.tsx`, `pkg-barrel/elements/Box.tsx` — all `.groups(` → `.system(`

+- [x] 7.7 Add test: mixed namespace — type-level in types.test-d.tsx §13 (group + prop + ungrouped + rejection)
+- [x] 7.8 Add test: ungrouped prop via .addProps() — type-level in types.test-d.tsx §13c
+
+## 8. Documentation
+
+- [ ] 8.1 Update `packages/showcase/src/content/api/create-system.md` — new API surface
+- [ ] 8.2 Update `packages/showcase/src/content/api/builder-chain.md` — .system() replaces .groups()

+## Why
+
+Pre-built prop groups (space, color, typography, etc.) hardcode scale names as string literals. A consumer who names their space scale "smidgens" must recreate all ~15 entries by hand. The `Prop.scale` field is typed as `string` — no compile-time guarantee that a scale name exists in the consumer's theme.
+
+With the theming absorption (change 1) removing the `T` generic from SystemBuilder, scale narrowing now depends entirely on the augmented `Theme` interface. This is the right architecture — but the pre-built groups need a way to be parameterized by scale name so consumers can adapt them to their theme shape.
+
+The core package's `compatTheme` fallback pattern (where `Prop.scale` accepts `keyof Theme | keyof CompatTheme`) is the anti-pattern: it creates phantom scale names that TypeScript says exist but don't at runtime.
+
+## What Changes
+
+**Step 1: Group Factory Functions (this change)**
+- Groups become factory functions parameterized by scale name(s)
+- Single-scale groups (space, shadows, transitions): factory takes one scale name `<S extends string>(scale: S)`
+- Multi-scale groups (typography, border, positioning, color): factory takes a mapping object `<M extends { fonts: string; fontSizes: string; ... }>(scales: M)`
+- No-scale groups (flex, grid, layout, background): remain static objects
+- Existing static exports become factory invocations: `export const space = spaceGroup('space')`
+- `as const` return type preserves literal scale names through the existing `ScaleValue` type machinery
+- Zero changes to `Prop` interface, `ScaleValue`, `PropertyBuilder`, or Rust pipeline
+
+**Step 2: Optional addGroup Validation (future, not this change)**
+- `PropertyBuilder.addGroup` gains a `ValidateScales<Conf>` conditional type that emits errors when scale names don't match `keyof TokenScales<Theme>`
+- Only fires in consumer code (after module augmentation) — library code is unaffected
+- Layered on top of step 1, not a prerequisite
+
+**Explicit decision: NO default theme.** Module augmentation with phantom scale names is actively dangerous — the types say `space` exists but the runtime theme may only have `smidgens`. The clean-slate `Theme extends BaseTheme {}` is correct.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `group-scale-factories`: Factory functions for parameterizing pre-built prop groups with consumer-defined scale names
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `prop-system`: Pre-built groups become factory invocations internally. Static exports preserved for backward compatibility.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **system/src/groups/index.ts**: Primary target. Factory functions added alongside static objects. Statics redefined as factory invocations.
+- **system/src/index.ts**: Export factory functions from package.
+- **Type regression tests**: New assertions for factory-created groups with custom scale names resolving against augmented Theme.
+- **Showcase**: No change (uses standard scale names).
+- **Rust pipeline**: No change (scale names serialize as strings regardless of origin).
+- **Consumer API**: Purely additive. `spaceGroup('smidgens')` is new; `space` still works.
+
+## Progression
+
+This is change 3 in the sequence:
+1. `absorb-theming-into-system` — decouple theming, kill withTokens (done)
+2. `animus-provider` — AnimusProvider + distribution story (proposed)
+3. `group-scale-factories` — this change

+## Context
+
+The showcase documentation is authored as TSX with all content inline as JSX elements. A markdown rendering layer would let authors write prose as markdown files, rendered through existing Animus components at runtime. This document records the design decisions for that layer.
+
+The showcase uses Vite 8, React 18, React Router 7, and the Animus extraction pipeline. Current dependencies include `prism-react-renderer` for syntax highlighting. No markdown tooling exists in the monorepo today.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Markdown files render through Animus components (Prose, Heading, SyntaxBlock, InlineCode) — visually identical to current TSX-authored output
+- Code blocks get syntax highlighting via prism-react-renderer (already a dependency)
+- Authors can write standard markdown with no custom syntax required for basic content
+- Interactive demos (React state, event handlers) compose alongside markdown content without contaminating the markdown authoring experience
+- Consecutive tsx/css code block pairs render as side-by-side CodeExample components
+- No impact on the Animus extraction pipeline
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- MDX support (JSX in markdown) — adds toolchain complexity for a capability we don't need. Interactive content lives in TSX companion components.
+- Build-time markdown compilation — runtime parsing is adequate for docs page sizes
+- Markdown-driven routing (file-system routing from .md files) — routing remains explicit in App.tsx per docs-navigation-restructure proposal
+- Table of contents extraction from markdown — the right-column ToC (planned in docs-navigation-restructure) scans rendered DOM headings, not markdown AST
+- Custom directive syntax (admonitions, callouts, tabs) — use TSX companion components if needed
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. `react-markdown` as the parser/renderer
+
+Use `react-markdown` for parsing and rendering. It converts markdown to a remark AST, then renders each node as a React element via the `components` prop.
+
+**Why not `marked`:** `marked` outputs HTML strings. To render through Animus components, we'd need `dangerouslySetInnerHTML` which bypasses React's component model. No syntax highlighting integration. No component mapping.
+
+**Why not build-time plugin:** `vite-plugin-markdown` v3 is pre-release. The `react` output mode renders raw HTML, not mapped components. Build-time adds coupling for negligible performance gain on docs-sized content.
+
+**Why not MDX:** MDX's value is JSX-in-markdown. We don't need JSX in markdown — interactive sections are separate TSX components composed at the page level. MDX adds `@mdx-js/rollup` + remark + rehype + MDXProvider to the dependency tree for a capability we'd explicitly avoid using.
+
+### 2. Component mapping via a shared `componentMap` object
+
+A single `componentMap` object maps HTML element names to Animus components. This object is defined once and shared across all `MarkdownContent` instances.
+
+```tsx
+const componentMap = {
+  h1: headingFactory(1),
+  h2: headingFactory(2),
+  h3: headingFactory(3),
+  h4: headingFactory(4),
+  p: Prose,
+  code: CodeRenderer,    // dispatches inline vs block
+  pre: PreRenderer,      // handles code block pairing
+  strong: Strong,
+  a: LinkRenderer,
+  blockquote: Callout,
+  ul: ListRenderer,
+  ol: ListRenderer,
+  hr: EmberDivider,
+};
+```
+
+**Why a single object:** Consistency. Every markdown page renders identically. No per-page component overrides needed. If a page needs custom rendering, it uses a TSX companion component outside the markdown flow.
+
+### 3. Code block rendering: SyntaxBlock with language detection
+
+Fenced code blocks (`` ```tsx ``) render as `SyntaxBlock` components with the language extracted from the info string. `SyntaxBlock` already uses `prism-react-renderer` — no new highlighting infrastructure needed.
+
+Inline code (`` `foo` ``) renders as `InlineCode`.
+
+The `code` component in the map dispatches between these based on whether the code is inside a `pre` element (block) or inline.
+
+### 4. Code block pairing: consecutive tsx→css detection
+
+When a `tsx`/`ts`/`jsx` code block is immediately followed by a `css` code block (no intervening non-code content), the rendering layer wraps both in a `CodeExample` component (side-by-side input/output display).
+
+Implementation: a custom remark plugin or a post-render React wrapper that scans children for adjacent code blocks matching the pattern.
+
+**Why automatic pairing over explicit syntax:** Explicit syntax (`:::example`) requires learning a custom markdown dialect. The tsx→css adjacency pattern is already the convention used in existing docs content and is unambiguous — a tsx block followed by a css block is always an input/output example in this documentation context.
+
+**Escape hatch:** If a tsx block and css block should NOT be paired, insert any non-code element between them (a paragraph, a horizontal rule, a heading).
+
+### 5. Vite integration: native `?raw` imports, no plugin
+
+Markdown files are imported using Vite's built-in `?raw` query string. This returns the file content as a string at build time. No markdown-specific Vite plugin is needed.
+
+```tsx
+import content from './builder-chain.md?raw';
+```
+
+**Why `?raw` over a plugin:** Zero configuration. No plugin version compatibility concerns. The string import is tree-shakeable and works with code splitting (each page's markdown is in its own chunk). Runtime parsing by `react-markdown` is the rendering step.
+
+**Type declaration needed:** Add a `*.md` module declaration to the project's type environment so TypeScript accepts `.md?raw` imports without errors.
+
+### 6. Page composition: markdown + optional TSX demo
+
+Each documentation page is a thin TSX wrapper that imports its markdown content and optionally composes it with interactive demo components.
+
+**Pure content page** (~5 lines):
+```tsx
+import content from '../../content/concepts/builder-chain.md?raw';
+import { MarkdownContent } from '../../components/docs/MarkdownContent';
+
+export default function BuilderChain() {
+  return <MarkdownContent source={content} />;
+}
+```
+
+**Page with interactive demo** (~10 lines):
+```tsx
+import content from '../../content/concepts/slot-composition.md?raw';
+import { MarkdownContent } from '../../components/docs/MarkdownContent';
+import { SlotCompositionDemo } from '../../demos/SlotCompositionDemo';
+
+export default function SlotComposition() {
+  return (
+    <>
+      <MarkdownContent source={content} />
+      <SlotCompositionDemo />
+    </>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+**Why thin wrappers over direct markdown routing:** The wrapper gives us an explicit composition point for demos, metadata, or layout overrides without introducing a framework-level abstraction. Each page is a standard React component that happens to render markdown — nothing magical.
+
+### 7. MarkdownContent component: single entry point
+
+One component (`MarkdownContent`) is the public API for rendering markdown. It accepts a `source` string and handles parsing, component mapping, and code block pairing internally.
+
+```tsx
+interface MarkdownContentProps {
+  source: string;
+}
+```
+
+No other props. No component override prop. No plugin prop. If the rendering behavior needs to change, change the `componentMap` or the internal remark configuration — not the consumer API.
+
+**Why minimal API:** This component serves one codebase (the showcase). Configurability adds API surface without adding value. If we later need different rendering for different sections, we can add it then — but we won't need to.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Runtime parsing cost]** → `react-markdown` parses on every render. For docs-sized content (< 1000 lines per page), this is sub-millisecond. If it ever matters, memoize with `useMemo` keyed on the source string. Not worth optimizing preemptively.
+- **[Bundle size]** → ~42 KB gzipped added. The showcase already ships 277 KB JS. This is a 15% increase in total JS for a docs-only dependency. Acceptable.
+- **[Code block pairing fragility]** → Adjacent tsx→css detection could misfire if content has consecutive code blocks that aren't input/output pairs. Mitigation: the pattern is unambiguous in practice (all tsx→css adjacency in current docs IS input/output), and an escape hatch exists (insert any element between them).
+- **[No JSX in markdown]** → Authors cannot embed React components inline in markdown content. This is intentional — interactive content lives in TSX companions. If this becomes a real limitation, MDX migration is additive (swap the parser, keep the component map).
+- **[Loss of Stack gap control]** → Current TSX uses `<Stack gap={16}>` and `<Stack gap={64}>` for fine-grained vertical spacing. In markdown, spacing is determined by the component map (margin on headings, paragraphs, etc.). The MarkdownContent component applies consistent spacing via a wrapper. Per-element spacing control is lost but was never intentional — it was a side effect of authoring in JSX.

+## Why
+
+The showcase docs are authored as TSX with content inlined as JSX elements. Concepts.tsx is 954 lines of `<Prose>`, `<Heading>`, `<InlineCode>`, and `<Stack gap={64}>` wrapping what is fundamentally prose and code examples. ~95% of the content is static — only one section (Slot Composition) has React state.
+
+This creates two problems:
+
+1. **Authoring friction.** Writing documentation means writing JSX. Every paragraph needs `<Prose fontSize={16} lineHeight="relaxed">`, every heading needs `<Heading level={2}>`, every inline code span needs `<InlineCode>`. The markup-to-content ratio is high and the feedback loop is slow.
+
+2. **Splitting cost.** The docs-navigation-restructure proposal plans to split Concepts.tsx into 6 pages and ApiReference.tsx into 6 pages. If each page is a .tsx file with the current authoring pattern, that's 12 new files of verbose JSX for what should be simple prose + code examples.
+
+Markdown solves both problems. `## Heading` replaces `<Heading level={2}>`. Paragraphs are just paragraphs. Code blocks are fenced. The content reads and writes like documentation.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Add a markdown rendering layer.** A component that accepts a markdown string and renders it through Animus components (Prose for `<p>`, Heading for `<h1>`-`<h6>`, SyntaxBlock for code blocks, InlineCode for inline `code`).
+- **Author documentation content as `.md` files.** Each topic page in the docs-navigation-restructure becomes a `.md` file imported as a raw string. Interactive sections (live demos) remain as TSX components composed alongside the rendered markdown.
+- **Define a code block convention for input/output pairs.** Code examples that show builder DSL input alongside emitted CSS output use metadata annotations on fenced code blocks to signal pairing.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `markdown-renderer`: A React component that parses markdown and renders each element through the existing Animus component library. Handles: headings (h1-h6), paragraphs, inline code, code blocks with syntax highlighting, lists, strong/em, links, blockquotes, horizontal rules.
+- `code-block-pairing`: A convention and rendering behavior for pairing consecutive code blocks as input/output examples. Uses code block meta annotations or a language-suffix convention to signal that adjacent blocks form a pair rendered as a CodeExample component.
+- `md-content-import`: `.md` files imported via Vite's `?raw` query string, parsed and rendered at runtime. No additional Vite plugins required.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `developer-knowledge-docs`: Documentation content migrates from inline JSX to markdown files. Visual output and component styling remain identical — only the authoring format changes.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Dependencies:** One new dependency — a markdown parser. Options evaluated below.
+- **Extraction pipeline:** No impact. Markdown files contain no Animus components. The rendering layer (TSX) uses Animus components that extraction already processes. The `.md` files are data, not code.
+- **Vite config:** No changes. Vite natively supports `?raw` imports. No new plugins needed.
+- **Component library:** No new components. The rendering layer maps markdown elements to existing components (Prose, Heading, SyntaxBlock, InlineCode, etc.).
+- **Interactive content:** Sections that require React state (live demos, toggles) remain as TSX components. A page can compose rendered markdown + TSX demo components in the same layout.
+
+## Options Considered
+
+### Option A: `react-markdown` + component mapping (Recommended)
+
+Parse markdown at runtime using `react-markdown`, which converts markdown AST nodes directly to React elements. Component mapping is built-in via the `components` prop.
+
+```tsx
+import content from './builder-chain.md?raw';
+
+<MarkdownContent source={content} />
+// internally:
+// <ReactMarkdown components={componentMap}>{source}</ReactMarkdown>
+```
+
+**Component map:**
+```tsx
+const componentMap = {
+  h1: (props) => <Heading level={1} {...props} />,
+  h2: (props) => <Heading level={2} {...props} />,
+  h3: (props) => <Heading level={3} {...props} />,
+  p:  (props) => <Prose {...props} />,
+  code: ({ inline, className, children }) =>
+    inline
+      ? <InlineCode>{children}</InlineCode>
+      : <SyntaxBlock language={extractLang(className)} code={String(children)} />,
+  // ...
+};
+```
+
+- Bundle: ~42 KB gzipped (react-markdown + unified/remark/rehype)
+- Pros: React-idiomatic, component mapping is first-class, remark/rehype plugin ecosystem
+- Cons: Runtime parsing (negligible for docs pages), heavier than `marked`
+
+### Option B: `marked` + `dangerouslySetInnerHTML` + CSS targeting
+
+Parse markdown to HTML string. Render via `dangerouslySetInnerHTML`. Style output via CSS selectors targeting standard HTML elements within a wrapper class.
+
+- Bundle: ~12 KB gzipped
+- Pros: Smallest bundle, simplest integration
+- Cons: No component mapping — styles are CSS-only, not Animus components. Loses SyntaxBlock (no prism highlighting). `dangerouslySetInnerHTML` bypasses React's rendering model.
+
+### Option C: Build-time Vite plugin
+
+Use `vite-plugin-markdown` (v3 pre-release) to compile `.md` imports to React components at build time.
+
+- Bundle: 0 KB runtime (compiled away)
+- Pros: Zero runtime cost, build-time optimization
+- Cons: Plugin is pre-release for Vite 8, limited component mapping support, adds build-time coupling
+
+### Recommendation: Option A
+
+`react-markdown` is the right tool because:
+1. Component mapping is the core requirement — every markdown element renders through an Animus component, maintaining visual consistency and extraction compatibility.
+2. 42 KB is negligible for a docs site that already ships 277 KB JS.
+3. The remark plugin ecosystem enables future extensions (GFM tables, custom directives) without building custom parsers.
+4. Runtime parsing cost is unmeasurable on modern hardware for the document sizes we have.
+
+## Authoring Experience
+
+**Before (TSX):**
+```tsx
+<Stack gap={16}>
+  <Heading level={2}>The Builder Chain</Heading>
+  <Prose fontSize={16} lineHeight="relaxed">
+    Every component starts with <InlineCode>animus(element)</InlineCode> and
+    builds up through a typed method chain. Each method adds a layer to the
+    component's cascade.
+  </Prose>
+  <CodeExample code={builderChainExample} language="tsx" />
+</Stack>
+```
+
+**After (Markdown):**
+```markdown
+## The Builder Chain
+
+Every component starts with `animus(element)` and builds up through a typed
+method chain. Each method adds a layer to the component's cascade.
+
+\`\`\`tsx
+const Button = ds
+  .styles({ base: { px: 16, py: 8 } })
+  .variants({ size: { sm: { px: 8 }, lg: { px: 24 } } })
+  .build();
+\`\`\`
+```
+
+**Page wrapper (TSX) for mixed content:**
+```tsx
+import content from './builder-chain.md?raw';
+
+export default function BuilderChain() {
+  return (
+    <Stack gap={64}>
+      <MarkdownContent source={content} />
+    </Stack>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+**Page with interactive demo:**
+```tsx
+import content from './slot-composition.md?raw';
+import { SlotCompositionDemo } from '../demos/SlotCompositionDemo';
+
+export default function SlotComposition() {
+  return (
+    <Stack gap={64}>
+      <MarkdownContent source={content} />
+      <SlotCompositionDemo />
+    </Stack>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+## Code Block Convention
+
+### Single code block
+Standard fenced code with language:
+````markdown
+```tsx
+const Button = ds.styles({ base: { px: 16 } }).build();
+```
+````
+Renders as `SyntaxBlock` with language-appropriate highlighting.
+
+### Input/Output pair
+Two consecutive fenced code blocks where the second has language `css` or a `// output` comment on the first line. The rendering layer detects adjacent code blocks and optionally pairs them as a `CodeExample` component.
+
+````markdown
+```tsx
+const Button = ds
+  .styles({ base: { px: 16, py: 8, bg: 'primary' } })
+  .build();
+```
+
+```css
+/* Emitted CSS */
+.btn_base { padding: 16px 8px; background: var(--colors-primary); }
+```
+````
+
+The pairing heuristic: a `tsx`/`ts` block immediately followed by a `css` block renders as `CodeExample` (side-by-side). All other code blocks render as standalone `SyntaxBlock`.
+
+## Prerequisite Relationship
+
+This proposal is a **prerequisite** to `docs-navigation-restructure`. The navigation proposal plans to split Concepts.tsx into 6 files and ApiReference.tsx into 6 files. If those files are `.md` instead of `.tsx`, authoring the split is dramatically simpler and the resulting files are easier to maintain.
+
+Implement this first, then proceed with the navigation restructure where each topic page is a `.md` file with an optional TSX wrapper for interactive demos.
+
+## File Organization (Preview)
+
+After both proposals are implemented:
+```
+src/
+  content/
+    concepts/
+      builder-chain.md
+      cascade-contract.md
+      design-tokens.md

+      SlotComposition.tsx        ← wrapper: md + demo component
+      ...
+```
+
+The `pages/` TSX wrappers are thin — typically 5-10 lines importing the markdown content and composing it with any interactive demos. The bulk of authoring happens in `content/` as plain markdown.

+## Content Migration Specification
+
+### Overview
+
+Migrate showcase documentation pages from inline JSX authoring to markdown content files. Each documentation topic becomes a `.md` file. Page components become thin TSX wrappers that import and render the markdown, optionally composing interactive demo components.
+
+### File Structure
+
+```
+src/
+  content/                          ← markdown content files
+    concepts/
+      builder-chain.md
+      cascade-contract.md

+      vite-plugin.md

+    getting-started.md

+  pages/                            ← thin TSX wrappers (post-nav-restructure)
+    concepts/
+      BuilderChain.tsx
+      CascadeContract.tsx
+      DesignTokens.tsx
+      ResponsiveProps.tsx
+      VariantsStates.tsx
+      SlotComposition.tsx
+    api/
+      CreateTheme.tsx
+      CreateSystem.tsx
+      ...
+```
+
+### Migration Rules
+
+1. **Prose** → plain markdown paragraphs. Remove `<Prose>` wrapper, `fontSize`, `lineHeight` props (handled by component map).
+
+2. **Headings** → markdown headings (`##`, `###`). Remove `<Heading level={N}>` wrapper.
+
+3. **InlineCode** → backtick inline code. Remove `<InlineCode>` wrapper.
+
+4. **CodeExample with input/output** → consecutive tsx + css fenced code blocks. Remove the `const example = { input: '...', output: '...' }` pattern and `<CodeExample code={example} />`.
+
+5. **SyntaxBlock** → single fenced code block with language. Remove `<SyntaxBlock code={...} language={...} />`.
+
+6. **Stack/Row layout** → removed entirely. Spacing is handled by the MarkdownContent wrapper's CSS. Layout within markdown is linear by nature.
+
+7. **Label** → markdown emphasis or bold. `<Label>method → layer</Label>` becomes `**method → layer**` or similar.
+
+8. **Interactive sections** (useState, onClick, live demos) → extracted to separate TSX components in `demos/`. Composed alongside markdown in the page wrapper.
+
+### What Stays as TSX
+
+- **Home page** (`Home.tsx`): Hero section, animated elements, CTA layout. Not documentation prose — this is a marketing/landing page.
+- **Examples page** (`Examples.tsx`): Primarily interactive demonstrations.
+- **Interactive demos**: Any section requiring React state, event handlers, or live component rendering. Extracted to `demos/` directory.
+
+### Migration Sequencing
+
+This migration is coupled with `docs-navigation-restructure`. The recommended order:
+
+1. **Implement MarkdownContent component** (this proposal, renderer spec)
+2. **Migrate one page as proof-of-concept** — Getting Started is a good candidate (sequential prose, no interactive demos, currently well-structured)
+3. **Implement docs-navigation-restructure** — split pages into routes
+4. **Migrate remaining pages** — each topic page is authored as .md during the split
+
+Steps 3 and 4 can happen simultaneously — as each page is split into its own route, it's authored as markdown rather than copying the existing JSX.
+
+### Content Extraction from Existing Pages
+
+When migrating a page, the process is:
+
+1. Read the existing TSX page
+2. For each section, convert JSX to markdown:
+   - Strip component wrappers (`Prose`, `Heading`, `Stack`, etc.)
+   - Convert inline JSX to markdown syntax
+   - Move code example strings into fenced code blocks
+3. Identify interactive sections → extract to `demos/` component
+4. Create thin page wrapper → import md + optional demo
+5. Verify rendering matches original

+## Markdown Renderer Specification
+
+### Overview
+
+A `MarkdownContent` React component that parses a markdown string and renders each element through the Animus showcase component library. Handles headings, prose, inline code, fenced code blocks with syntax highlighting, code block input/output pairing, lists, links, blockquotes, horizontal rules, and emphasis.
+
+### Public API
+
+```tsx
+interface MarkdownContentProps {
+  source: string;
+}
+
+export function MarkdownContent(props: MarkdownContentProps): JSX.Element;
+```
+
+Single prop. No configuration surface.
+
+### Component Mapping
+
+| Markdown Element | HTML Element | Animus Component | Notes |
+|-----------------|-------------|-----------------|-------|
+| `# Heading` | `h1` | `Heading level={1}` | Auto-generates `id` from text for anchor linking |
+| `## Heading` | `h2` | `Heading level={2}` | Same |
+| `### Heading` | `h3` | `Heading level={3}` | Same |
+| `#### Heading` | `h4` | `Heading level={4}` | Same |
+| Paragraph | `p` | `Prose` | Default font size and line height from component |
+| `` `inline` `` | `code` (inline) | `InlineCode` | Detected by absence of parent `pre` |
+| Fenced code block | `pre > code` | `SyntaxBlock` | Language from info string, syntax highlighting via prism-react-renderer |
+| `**bold**` | `strong` | `Strong` | Existing component |
+| `*italic*` | `em` | Native `em` or styled span | Minimal styling needed |
+| `[text](url)` | `a` | Styled anchor | Internal links use React Router if applicable |
+| `> blockquote` | `blockquote` | `Callout` | Existing component |
+| `- list` / `1. list` | `ul` / `ol` | Styled list with Prose-consistent typography | |
+| `---` | `hr` | `EmberDivider` | Existing component |
+| `![alt](src)` | `img` | Native `img` with max-width constraint | Rare in docs, no custom component needed |
+
+### Code Block Rendering
+
+#### Single code block
+
+A fenced code block with language info string renders as `SyntaxBlock`:
+
+````markdown
+```tsx
+const Button = ds.styles({ base: { px: 16 } }).build();
+```
+````
+
+Renders as:
+```tsx
+<SyntaxBlock language="tsx" code="const Button = ds.styles({ base: { px: 16 } }).build();" />
+```
+
+#### Code block pairing (input/output)
+
+When a code block with language `tsx`, `ts`, or `jsx` is immediately followed by a code block with language `css` (no intervening non-code sibling elements), both render as a single `CodeExample` component:
+
+```tsx
+<CodeExample
+  code={{
+    input: "/* content of first block */",
+    output: "/* content of second block */"
+  }}
+  language="tsx"
+/>
+```
+
+Detection is implemented as a remark plugin or a React post-processing step that inspects adjacent children.
+
+**Non-paired blocks:** Any code block NOT matching the pairing pattern renders as standalone `SyntaxBlock`.
+
+### Spacing
+
+The `MarkdownContent` wrapper applies vertical spacing between rendered elements. Target spacing:
+- Between headings and following content: 16px (tight)
+- Between content blocks: 16px
+- Between major sections (before h2): 64px
+- Between code blocks and surrounding content: 24px
+
+Spacing is applied via CSS on the wrapper targeting direct children, not via explicit `Stack` components.
+
+### Type Declaration
+
+Add to the project's type environment (e.g., `src/vite-env.d.ts` or a `markdown.d.ts`):
+
+```tsx
+declare module '*.md?raw' {
+  const content: string;
+  export default content;
+}
+```
+
+### Location
+
+```
+packages/showcase/src/components/docs/MarkdownContent.tsx
+```
+
+### Dependencies
+
+```
+react-markdown     — markdown parsing + React rendering
+remark-gfm         — GitHub Flavored Markdown (tables, strikethrough, task lists)
+```
+
+Both installed in `packages/showcase` only.
+
+### Extraction Compatibility
+
+The `MarkdownContent` component itself uses Animus-styled components (Prose, Heading, SyntaxBlock, etc.) which are already extraction-compatible. The component's own wrapper styling (spacing CSS) should also use `ds.styles()` for extraction.
+
+Markdown `.md` files are inert data — they contain no Animus component references and are invisible to the extraction pipeline. No changes to the Rust crate or Vite plugin are needed.

+## Context
+
+`ThemedCSSProps` is the mapped type that determines what values are allowed at each key position in style objects passed to `.styles()`, `.variant()`, and `.states()`. It uses a three-branch conditional type: system prop keys get themed scale values, CSS property keys get standard CSS types, and everything else gets the fallback branch.
+
+Core's `CSSProps` type (line 97-103 of `core/src/types/config.ts`) set the fallback to `Omit<PropertyTypes, keyof System> & Omit<System, 'theme'>` — an intersection that re-exposes the full type vocabulary for unknown keys (nested selectors, CSS variables, etc.). When `ThemedCSSProps` was created for the system package to use augmentable `Theme` instead of generic `T`, this re-provisioning was replaced with `unknown`.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Restore type awareness inside nested selector blocks to parity with core's `CSSProps`
+- Add regression test that fails at compile time if the fallback branch becomes `unknown` again
+- Cover `.styles()`, `.variant()`, and `.states()` nested selector paths
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Recursive type checking inside nested selectors (selectors within selectors) — out of scope, same as core
+- Typed selector shorthand expansion (that's `selector-registry` change)
+- Changes to `CSSObject` definition or `PropertyTypes`
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Fallback type mirrors core's pattern
+
+**Decision**: `Omit<PropertyTypes, keyof Config> & { [P in keyof Config]?: ThemedScale<Config[P]> }`
+
+**Rationale**: Direct translation of core's `Omit<PropertyTypes, keyof System> & Omit<System, 'theme'>` into the themed type system. `Config` replaces `System`, `ThemedScale<Config[P]>` replaces `System[K]`, no `theme` key to omit.
+
+### 2. Type-level negative assertion using `unknown extends T` check
+
+**Decision**: `type _NestedNotUnknown = Assert<unknown extends ResolvedNested['&:hover'] ? false : true>`
+
+**Rationale**: `unknown extends T` evaluates to `true` ONLY when `T` is `unknown`. If the fallback regresses, the Assert receives `false` and the file fails to compile. This tests the type mechanism directly at the `ThemedCSSProps` level without needing to extract types through the chain's generic inference.
+
+### 3. Test at ThemedCSSProps level, not chain level
+
+**Decision**: Import `ThemedCSSProps` and `Prop` directly, construct test types, assert on the resolved mapped type.
+
+**Rationale**: The chain method's generic inference makes type extraction awkward. Testing `ThemedCSSProps` directly isolates the exact regression point. Positive usage assertions (`.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()` with nested selectors) confirm the fix propagates through the chain.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Acceptable] Permissive fallback for misspelled props**: A key like `'colr'` (typo) gets the full vocabulary instead of an error. This matches core's behavior — the tradeoff is deliberate: support open-ended CSS selectors at the cost of no error on non-selector typos. CSS-in-JS has always made this tradeoff.

+## Why
+
+`ThemedCSSProps` — the mapped type backing `.styles()`, `.variant()`, and `.states()` — has a three-branch conditional that resolves value types per key:
+
+1. Key matches a system prop → `ThemedScale<Config[K]>` (themed scale values)
+2. Key matches a CSS property → `PropertyTypes[K]` (standard CSS values)
+3. Everything else → `unknown`
+
+Branch 3 handles nested selectors (`'&:hover'`, `'&[data-state="open"]'`, `'&::after'`). With `unknown`, their values lose all type information — no autocomplete, no CSS property checking, no system prop awareness inside nested blocks.
+
+Core's equivalent type (`CSSProps`) had a load-bearing third branch: `Omit<PropertyTypes, keyof System> & Omit<System, 'theme'>` — which RE-PROVISIONS the full vocabulary (CSS properties + system props) for unknown keys. This was lost when `ThemedCSSProps` was created during the Theme augmentation rework. No type assertion test existed to catch the regression.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Fix `ThemedCSSProps` fallback branch**: Replace `unknown` with `Omit<PropertyTypes, keyof Config> & { [P in keyof Config]?: ThemedScale<Config[P]> }` — the system-package equivalent of core's re-provisioning pattern
+- **Add type regression tests**: Negative assertion that nested selector values are NOT `unknown`, plus positive assertions for nested selectors in `.styles()`, `.variant()`, and `.states()`
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `system-builder`: `ThemedCSSProps` restores full type vocabulary (CSS properties + themed system props) inside nested selector blocks. Affects `.styles()`, `.variant()` (base + options), and `.states()` via `ThemedCSSPropMap`.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/system/src/types/config.ts`**: Single line change on the fallback branch of `ThemedCSSProps` (line 129)
+- **`packages/system/__tests__/types.test-d.tsx`**: New section 6 with negative assertion (`_NestedNotUnknown`) and positive usage assertions for nested selectors across `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()`
+- **No runtime impact**: Pure type-level change. No JS output changes.
+- **No extraction impact**: The Rust crate already handles nested selectors in CSS generation. This only restores TypeScript awareness.

+## Context
+
+The Animus extraction pipeline is split into two layers: a bundler-agnostic Rust crate (OXC + Lightning CSS + NAPI) and a thin bundler-specific glue layer. Today the only glue is `@animus-ui/vite-plugin`. The Rust crate's three NAPI functions (`extract`, `analyze_project`, `transform_file`) take and return plain JSON strings with zero bundler coupling.
+
+Next.js uses webpack (configurable) or Turbopack (default in dev, limited extensibility). Turbopack has no plugin API for custom Rust transforms — every CSS extraction tool in the ecosystem (vanilla-extract, StyleX, Panda) requires webpack mode for custom build integration. This is an industry-wide gap, not an Animus-specific limitation.
+
+The Vite plugin currently hardcodes `virtual:animus/styles.css` as the CSS delivery mechanism and `@animus-ui/runtime` as the runtime import path. Both need to become configurable to support alternative bundler integrations.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Next.js webpack integration that reuses 100% of the existing Rust crate
+- Single analysis pass shared across Next.js multi-compilation (server, client, edge)
+- Both Pages Router and App Router supported with the same plugin/loader — no separate entry points
+- RSC-compatible runtime path via React 19 ref-as-prop
+- Dev-mode HMR with geological reset detection
+- Config wrapper DX matching vanilla-extract's `withVanillaExtract(nextConfig)` pattern
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Turbopack plugin (no API exists; revisit when one ships)
+- Auto-injection of `"use client"` directives (user controls component boundaries)
+- Auto-detection of CSS import location (user adds the import in `_app.tsx` or `layout.tsx`)
+- SWC plugin (unnecessary — webpack loader calls our NAPI binary directly)
+- Incremental/per-file analysis in the webpack plugin (whole-project analysis is fast enough — 57ms/32 files benchmarked)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Webpack plugin + loader, not SWC plugin
+
+**Choice:** Custom webpack plugin (for build lifecycle) + webpack loader (for per-file transforms), calling our existing NAPI binary.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- SWC plugin: Would require rewriting chain-walking logic in SWC's visitor API. SWC plugins are Wasm-based with limited capabilities. We'd lose OXC's zero-copy arena AST and our entire crate composition. Massive effort, no benefit.
+- Babel plugin: Slower than NAPI by orders of magnitude. Would need to reimplement all extraction logic in JS. No.
+- Turbopack loader: Only supports JS output, no `emitFile`, no virtual modules. Cannot do what we need today.
+
+**Rationale:** The NAPI binary is already compiled for 3 platforms. Webpack loaders run in Node.js. Calling a NAPI function from a webpack loader is trivially cheap (~1ms overhead). We keep our entire pipeline and just write thin glue.
+
+### Decision 2: Real CSS file on disk, not virtual modules
+
+**Choice:** Write extracted CSS to `.animus/styles.css` in the project root. User imports it explicitly.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- `webpack-virtual-modules`: Works but adds a dependency and complexity. Virtual module state management across multi-compilation is fragile.
+- Inline `<style>` injection via `useServerInsertedHTML`: Runtime approach, defeats the purpose of build-time extraction.
+- CSS module output via webpack `emitFile`: Ties CSS to the webpack compilation lifecycle, harder to share across server/client passes.
+
+**Rationale:** A real file is the simplest, most debuggable approach. It works with both Pages Router and App Router. The user controls exactly where the CSS import goes. No virtual module abstraction to maintain. Vanilla-extract and Panda both use this pattern.
+
+### Decision 3: Single manifest cached above compiler instances
+
+**Choice:** The webpack plugin runs `analyze_project()` once and stores the manifest in a module-level variable shared across all compilation passes.
+
+**Why:** Next.js webpack runs 2-3 times per build (server, client, edge). Each gets its own `compiler` instance. If we analyze per-compiler, we waste 2-3x the time for identical results. The manifest is deterministic — same source + same config = same manifest regardless of compilation target.
+
+**Implementation:** Module-level `let cachedManifest: string | null = null` outside the plugin class. First compiler to reach `make` hook runs analysis and populates cache. Subsequent compilers read from cache.
+
+### Decision 4: Router-agnostic plugin — no separate entry points
+
+**Choice:** One plugin, one loader, works for both Pages Router and App Router. No detection of which router is in use.
+
+**Why:** The webpack layer is identical for both. The only difference is where the user puts their CSS import (`_app.tsx` vs `layout.tsx`). That's user-land configuration, not plugin logic. The loader transforms files identically regardless of routing model.
+
+Pages Router components are all client-side. App Router components may be server or client. The plugin doesn't need to know — it transforms the source code the same way. The `"use client"` boundary is the user's concern, not ours.
+
+### Decision 5: Configurable runtime import path via manifest
+
+**Choice:** The Rust `transform_emitter.rs` reads the runtime import path and CSS module ID from a config section in the manifest JSON, instead of hardcoding `@animus-ui/runtime` and `virtual:animus/styles.css`.
+
+**Why:** The Vite plugin needs `virtual:animus/styles.css`. The Next plugin needs no per-file CSS import (or a different path). The publishing-surface change renames runtime to `@animus-ui/react`. Making these configurable at the manifest level means the Rust crate serves any bundler integration without per-bundler code.
+
+**Manifest config shape:**
+```json
+{
+  "config": {
+    "runtimeImport": "@animus-ui/react",
+    "cssImport": "virtual:animus/styles.css"  // or "" for Next plugin
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Decision 6: React 19 ref-as-prop for RSC compatibility
+
+**Choice:** Update `createComponent` to accept `ref` as a regular prop instead of wrapping in `forwardRef`.
+
+**Why:** `forwardRef` is deprecated in React 19. Components using it are forced into `"use client"` in Next.js App Router. Removing it makes fully-extracted Animus components server-component compatible — they're just functions that concatenate classNames and call `createElement`.
+
+**Migration:** Non-breaking. React 19 supports both `forwardRef` and ref-as-prop. The change is purely internal to the runtime shim.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Webpack-only limitation]** → Users on Turbopack must pass `--webpack` flag. Mitigation: document clearly; this matches vanilla-extract and every other extraction tool's current guidance. Revisit when Turbopack ships plugin API.
+
+**[Multi-compilation race condition]** → Two compiler instances could both try to run `analyze_project()` simultaneously. Mitigation: mutex via a simple boolean flag (`let analyzing = false`) plus a promise that subsequent callers await.
+
+**[CSS file write timing]** → The CSS file must exist before webpack resolves imports to it. Mitigation: write CSS in `beforeCompile` hook, which fires before module resolution begins.
+
+**[React 19 minimum version]** → ref-as-prop requires React 19. Mitigation: check React version at runtime; fall back to `forwardRef` for React 18. Or: just require React 19 — Next.js 15+ ships with it.
+
+**[Dev HMR latency]** → Re-analysis + CSS file write on every save. Mitigation: content-hash caching (skip unchanged files) — same strategy as Vite plugin. Benchmarked at ~2ms/file.
+
+**[No auto-detection of system path]** → Unlike Vite plugin, no auto-detection heuristic initially. Mitigation: require `system` option in v1. Add auto-detection later if demand warrants.

+## Why
+
+Animus extraction is bundler-agnostic at the Rust crate level — `analyze_project()` and `transform_file()` take plain JSON strings and return plain strings. But the only build tool integration is the Vite plugin. Next.js is the dominant React meta-framework, and supporting it opens the realistic adoption surface for any team not on Vite. The webpack integration path works today — no need to wait for Turbopack's plugin API.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- New `@animus-ui/next-plugin` package providing a `withAnimus(nextConfig, options)` config wrapper
+- Webpack plugin that runs `analyze_project()` once per build (shared across server/client/edge compilation passes), writes CSS to a generated file on disk
+- Webpack loader that calls `transform_file()` per-file using the cached manifest — same NAPI functions as the Vite plugin
+- CSS delivered as a real file (`.animus/styles.css`) imported by the user in `_app.tsx` (Pages Router) or `layout.tsx` (App Router) — no virtual modules
+- Dev-mode HMR via webpack file watching: system file change → full re-analysis + CSS regeneration; component file change → incremental re-analysis + CSS update
+- Runtime import path in `transform_emitter.rs` made configurable via manifest parameter (currently hardcoded to `@animus-ui/runtime`, needs to support `@animus-ui/react` per publishing-surface and allow the Next plugin to control the CSS import path)
+- RSC compatibility path: update `createComponent` from `forwardRef` wrapper to React 19 ref-as-prop pattern, removing the `"use client"` requirement for fully-extracted components
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `next-webpack-integration`: Webpack plugin + loader for Next.js — build lifecycle hooks, manifest caching across compilation passes, CSS file output
+- `next-config-wrapper`: `withAnimus()` config wrapper — option merging, loader registration, plugin injection, system path resolution
+- `next-dev-hmr`: Dev-mode HMR in Next.js — file watching, incremental re-analysis, CSS file regeneration, geological reset detection
+- `next-rsc-compatibility`: React Server Component support — ref-as-prop runtime update, server/client component boundary handling, no separate entry points needed
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `extraction-runtime-shim`: `createComponent` switches from `forwardRef` to React 19 ref-as-prop — components become plain functions, RSC-compatible without `"use client"`
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Runtime import path and CSS module ID become configurable parameters in the manifest rather than hardcoded in the Rust emitter — shared concern with Next plugin
+
+## Impact
+
+- **New package**: `packages/next-plugin/` with webpack plugin, loader, and config wrapper
+- **Runtime package**: `forwardRef` → ref-as-prop migration in `createComponent`
+- **Rust crate**: `transform_emitter.rs` — runtime import path and CSS module ID read from manifest config instead of hardcoded strings
+- **Vite plugin**: Minor — passes import paths via manifest config instead of relying on hardcoded defaults (backward compatible)
+- **Dependencies**: `webpack` as peer dependency for the next-plugin package. No new Rust dependencies.
+- **No changes to**: extraction pipeline, CSS generation, @layer cascade, system builder, theming

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: createComponent factory
+The runtime shim SHALL export `createComponent(element, className, config)` which returns a plain function component that accepts `ref` as a regular prop (React 19 ref-as-prop pattern). The `element` parameter accepts EITHER an HTML tag string (e.g., `'button'`) OR a React component reference (for `.asComponent()` extensions). The `className` is the base extracted class name. The `config` describes variant props, state props, and system prop class mappings.
+
+#### Scenario: Render with HTML tag
+- **WHEN** `createComponent('button', 'animus-Btn-x7f2', {})` creates a component and it is rendered
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL be `<button class="animus-Btn-x7f2" />`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with component reference
+- **WHEN** `createComponent(NextLink, 'animus-Link-abc', {})` creates a component with a React component as the element
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL be `<NextLink className="animus-Link-abc" />` — the component reference is used as the element type in `React.createElement`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with variant prop
+- **WHEN** config has variants and component is rendered with `variant="stroke"`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have the variant modifier class appended
+
+#### Scenario: Render with system prop
+- **WHEN** config has `systemProps` and component is rendered with `p={8}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have the utility class appended
+
+#### Scenario: Render with state prop
+- **WHEN** config is `{ states: ['loading', 'disabled'] }` and component is rendered with `loading={true}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-Btn-x7f2--loading"`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with multiple active states
+- **WHEN** component is rendered with `loading={true} disabled={true}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-Btn-x7f2--loading animus-Btn-x7f2--disabled"`
+
+#### Scenario: Default variant applied
+- **WHEN** config has `{ variants: { variant: { options: ['fill', 'stroke'], default: 'fill' } } }` and component is rendered with no `variant` prop
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-Btn-x7f2--variant-fill"`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with system prop (extracted value)
+- **WHEN** config has `{ systemProps: { p: { "8": "animus-u-a1b2c3" } }, systemPropNames: ["p", "m", "mt"] }` and component is rendered with `p={8}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-u-a1b2c3"`
+
+#### Scenario: Render with system prop (non-extracted value)
+- **WHEN** config has `{ systemProps: { p: { "8": "animus-u-a1b2c3" } }, systemPropNames: ["p"] }` and component is rendered with `p={24}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2"` only — the value `24` has no matching utility class and SHALL be silently ignored
+
+#### Scenario: Render with responsive system prop
+- **WHEN** config has `{ systemProps: { mt: { "8|sm:16": "animus-u-d4e5f6" } }, systemPropNames: ["mt"] }` and component is rendered with `mt={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have class `"animus-Btn-x7f2 animus-u-d4e5f6"`
+
+#### Scenario: System prop overrides base style via layer
+- **WHEN** component has base style `padding: 0` in `@layer base` and is rendered with `p={8}` producing utility class in `@layer system`
+- **THEN** the utility class SHALL override the base padding because `@layer system` has higher precedence than `@layer base`
+
+### Requirement: Ref forwarding
+The component returned by `createComponent` SHALL forward refs to the underlying DOM element via React 19 ref-as-prop pattern. The `ref` prop SHALL be destructured from props and passed directly to `createElement`.
+
+#### Scenario: Forward ref via prop
+- **WHEN** a ref is passed to the component via `ref={myRef}`
+- **THEN** `myRef.current` SHALL reference the underlying DOM element (e.g., the `<button>` element)
+
+#### Scenario: No forwardRef wrapper
+- **WHEN** `createComponent` constructs the component function
+- **THEN** the function SHALL NOT be wrapped in `React.forwardRef` — ref is received as a regular prop

+- **WHEN** the `layers` option contains Animus layers in wrong relative order (e.g., `['base', 'global', ...]`)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL throw a descriptive error at build start, same behavior as the Vite plugin's `validateLayerOrder()`
+
+### Requirement: Consumer layer absorption
+The `layers` option SHALL accept an array of layer names that includes all 7 Animus layers as a subsequence in their required order, with consumer layers interleaved. The plugin SHALL emit a single unified `@layer` declaration containing both Animus and consumer layers. This replaces any need for the consumer to write their own `@layer` declaration.
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer with reset and overrides layers
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `layers: ['reset', 'global', 'base', 'variants', 'compounds', 'states', 'system', 'custom', 'overrides']`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL emit `@layer reset, global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom, overrides;` and the consumer does NOT need a separate `@layer` declaration
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer with no custom layers
+- **WHEN** consumer does not provide a `layers` option
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL emit the default 7-layer declaration
+
+### Requirement: Strict CSS chunking default
+`withAnimus()` SHALL set `experimental.cssChunking: 'strict'` in the returned Next.js config unless the consumer has explicitly set `experimental.cssChunking` to a different value.
+
+#### Scenario: Default behavior
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `withAnimus(nextConfig)` with no `experimental.cssChunking` set
+- **THEN** the returned config SHALL include `experimental: { cssChunking: 'strict' }`
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer override respected
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `withAnimus({ experimental: { cssChunking: 'loose' } })`
+- **THEN** the returned config SHALL preserve `experimental: { cssChunking: 'loose' }` — the plugin does not override explicit consumer choices
+
+### Requirement: Import ordering documentation contract
+The plugin SHALL document that `.animus/styles.css` must be the first CSS import in the consumer's root layout file (`layout.tsx` for App Router, `_app.tsx` for Pages Router). This ensures the Animus `@layer` declaration is the first `@layer` the browser encounters.
+
+#### Scenario: Correct import ordering
+- **WHEN** consumer imports `.animus/styles.css` as the first CSS import in `layout.tsx`
+- **THEN** the Animus layer declaration takes precedence over any subsequent `@layer` declarations from other CSS files
+
+#### Scenario: Incorrect import ordering warning
+- **WHEN** the plugin detects (via webpack compilation hooks) that another CSS module is imported before `.animus/styles.css` in the root layout
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL print a warning: `[animus] ⚠ .animus/styles.css should be the first CSS import in your root layout to guarantee @layer ordering`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Server component compatibility for fully-extracted components
+Components created by `createComponent` that have no dynamic runtime behavior SHALL be usable as React Server Components without a `"use client"` directive.
+
+#### Scenario: Static component in server context
+- **WHEN** a component is fully extracted (no system props at JSX site, no variant/state props passed dynamically) and used in a Next.js App Router server component
+- **THEN** the component SHALL render correctly on the server, producing the expected HTML with className attributes
+
+#### Scenario: Component with variant props in client context
+- **WHEN** a component receives variant or state props that trigger runtime className selection
+- **THEN** the component SHALL work in a `"use client"` file where className concatenation executes in the browser
+
+#### Scenario: Component with system props
+- **WHEN** a component receives system props (e.g., `p={8}`) that map to utility classes at runtime
+- **THEN** the component SHALL work in both server and client contexts — the className lookup is a pure object property access with no browser APIs
+
+### Requirement: No forwardRef wrapper
+The `createComponent` function SHALL return a plain function component that accepts `ref` as a regular prop (React 19 ref-as-prop pattern) instead of wrapping in `React.forwardRef`.
+
+#### Scenario: Ref passed as prop
+- **WHEN** a component is rendered with `<Button ref={myRef} />`
+- **THEN** `myRef.current` SHALL reference the underlying DOM element, without the component being wrapped in `forwardRef`
+
+#### Scenario: No ref passed
+- **WHEN** a component is rendered without a ref
+- **THEN** it SHALL render identically to the current `forwardRef` implementation
+
+#### Scenario: React 19 compatibility
+- **WHEN** the consuming application uses React 19 or later
+- **THEN** ref-as-prop SHALL work natively without any polyfill
+
+### Requirement: No pages-vs-app-router distinction in plugin
+The webpack plugin and loader SHALL operate identically regardless of whether the consuming application uses Pages Router or App Router. Router detection SHALL NOT be performed.
+
+#### Scenario: Pages Router application
+- **WHEN** a Next.js application uses Pages Router with CSS imported in `_app.tsx`
+- **THEN** the plugin and loader SHALL produce correct transforms and CSS output
+
+#### Scenario: App Router application
+- **WHEN** a Next.js application uses App Router with CSS imported in `layout.tsx`
+- **THEN** the plugin and loader SHALL produce identical transforms and CSS output as Pages Router
+
+#### Scenario: Mixed routing
+- **WHEN** a Next.js application uses both Pages Router and App Router (migration scenario)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL work correctly — CSS is a single file, transforms are per-file and router-agnostic

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Webpack plugin lifecycle
+The Next.js webpack plugin SHALL hook into the webpack compiler lifecycle to run project analysis once per build and share the resulting manifest across all compilation passes (server, client, edge).
+
+#### Scenario: Single analysis per build
+- **WHEN** Next.js webpack creates multiple compiler instances (server, client, edge)
+- **THEN** `analyze_project()` SHALL execute exactly once, and all compilers SHALL share the same cached manifest
+
+#### Scenario: Analysis runs before module resolution
+- **WHEN** the webpack plugin's `beforeCompile` hook fires
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL have completed `analyze_project()` and written the CSS output file before any module resolution begins
+
+#### Scenario: Analysis race condition
+- **WHEN** two compiler instances reach the analysis hook simultaneously
+- **THEN** the first SHALL execute analysis and the second SHALL await the result, not run a duplicate analysis
+
+### Requirement: Webpack loader transforms
+The webpack loader SHALL call `transform_file()` per-file using the cached manifest from the plugin. The loader SHALL be registered for `.ts`, `.tsx`, `.js`, and `.jsx` files excluding `node_modules`.
+
+#### Scenario: File with Animus components
+- **WHEN** the loader processes a file containing builder chain expressions
+- **THEN** it SHALL call `transform_file(source, relativePath, manifestJson)` and return the transformed code with `createComponent` imports
+
+#### Scenario: File without Animus components
+- **WHEN** the loader processes a file with no builder chains
+- **THEN** `transform_file()` SHALL return the source unchanged with `has_components: false`, and the loader SHALL pass through the original source
+
+#### Scenario: Loader excludes node_modules
+- **WHEN** webpack resolves a module inside `node_modules/`
+- **THEN** the loader SHALL NOT process that file
+
+### Requirement: CSS output as real file
+The webpack plugin SHALL write the extracted CSS to a real file on disk at `.animus/styles.css` relative to the project root. This file SHALL contain the complete `@layer`-ordered CSS output from `analyze_project()`.
+
+#### Scenario: CSS file written at build start
+- **WHEN** the webpack plugin completes analysis
+- **THEN** it SHALL write the resolved CSS (variable declarations + global styles + component CSS) to `.animus/styles.css`
+
+#### Scenario: CSS file includes all layers
+- **WHEN** the CSS file is written
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain the layer declaration, variable CSS, global styles CSS, and all component CSS in `@layer` order — matching the Vite plugin's production output
+
+#### Scenario: Directory created if missing
+- **WHEN** the `.animus/` directory does not exist
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL create it before writing the CSS file
+
+### Requirement: System loading via subprocess
+The webpack plugin SHALL load the design system module via bun subprocess at build start, identical to the Vite plugin's `loadSystem()` mechanism.
+
+#### Scenario: System loaded from option path
+- **WHEN** `withAnimus(nextConfig, { system: './src/ds.ts' })` is configured
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL invoke a bun subprocess to import the system module and call `.serialize()`, returning tokens, propConfig, groupRegistry, and transforms
+
+#### Scenario: Transform post-processing
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL resolve them using the in-memory transform registry from the system's serialized config — same resolution logic as the Vite plugin
+
+#### Scenario: Unit fallback applied
+- **WHEN** CSS contains bare numeric values on non-unitless properties
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL apply `applyUnitFallback()` — same function as the Vite plugin

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Plugin factory function
+The plugin factory SHALL accept a `system` option pointing to the module that exports the SystemInstance. It SHALL also accept an optional `runtimePackage` option (default: `'@animus-ui/react'`) that controls the runtime import path emitted by the Rust transform emitter. This replaces `configPath` and `themePath` as separate options.
+
+#### Scenario: System instance path
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL load that module via a single bun subprocess to obtain tokens, prop config, group registry, and transforms
+
+#### Scenario: Default configuration
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract()` with no options
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL auto-detect the system module by searching for a file exporting a SystemInstance (same heuristic as current config/theme auto-detection)
+
+#### Scenario: Custom runtime package
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ runtimePackage: '@my-org/animus-react' })`
+- **THEN** the Rust transform emitter SHALL emit `import { createComponent } from '@my-org/animus-react'` instead of the default
+
+#### Scenario: Default runtime package
+- **WHEN** no `runtimePackage` option is provided
+- **THEN** the default import path SHALL be `'@animus-ui/react'`
+
+### Requirement: Configurable transform emitter paths
+The plugin SHALL pass runtime import path and CSS module ID to the Rust crate via the manifest config, rather than relying on hardcoded values in `transform_emitter.rs`.
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest includes emitter config
+- **WHEN** the plugin calls `analyze_project()` or constructs the manifest for `transform_file()`
+- **THEN** the manifest JSON SHALL include a `config` object with `runtimeImport` and `cssImport` fields
+
+#### Scenario: Vite plugin CSS import
+- **WHEN** the Vite plugin constructs the manifest
+- **THEN** `config.cssImport` SHALL be `'virtual:animus/styles.css'`
+
+#### Scenario: Rust emitter reads config
+- **WHEN** `transform_file()` processes a file
+- **THEN** the emitter SHALL read `config.runtimeImport` and `config.cssImport` from the manifest to construct import statements, instead of using hardcoded strings

+## Context
+
+The monorepo has 8+ packages from the old Emotion-based architecture. The extraction pipeline (shipped on `next` branch) replaces Emotion entirely, but the package graph still reflects the old world. Four packages need to publish but are blocked by `private: true` and missing metadata. The runtime shim is named generically (`@animus-ui/runtime`) despite being React-specific. The vite-plugin still imports from `@animus-ui/core` (legacy dead code) despite the system's `.serialize()` providing everything it needs.
+
+The `next` branch is the new publishing baseline. No packages have been published from it yet.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Clean publishable surface: 4 packages (`system`, `react`, `vite-plugin`, `extract`)
+- Framework-agnostic extraction pipeline — only the runtime shim couples to a framework
+- Consumers install 2 packages: `@animus-ui/system` + `@animus-ui/vite-plugin` (+ `@animus-ui/react` as a dep or explicit install)
+- Beta publish under `npm publish --tag next` as `0.1.0-next.1`
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Vue/Svelte/Solid runtime shims — future work, just ensuring the architecture allows it
+- Removing core/theming packages from the monorepo — they stay for internal use and backward compat, just don't publish
+- Automated release pipeline — manual `npm publish` for now, CI release job is a separate change
+- Bundling theming INTO system's dist — system re-exports from theming, theming ships as a dependency
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Runtime → React: rename the package
+
+`packages/runtime/` → `packages/react/`. Package name `@animus-ui/runtime` → `@animus-ui/react`. The API is unchanged — `createComponent` stays the same. Only the package identity changes.
+
+**Why rename the directory too?** Convention. The package name and directory name should match. `packages/react/` makes it obvious what framework this package serves.
+
+**Migration:** Update all import paths in the monorepo. The extraction pipeline inserts `import { createComponent } from '@animus-ui/runtime'` — this changes to `@animus-ui/react`. The vite-plugin controls this string.
+
+### 2. Vite plugin `runtime` option
+
+```typescript
+animusExtract({
+  system: './src/ds.ts',
+  runtime: '@animus-ui/react',  // default
+})
+```
+
+The plugin uses this string when generating `createComponent` imports in transformed source. Currently hardcoded to `'@animus-ui/runtime'` — becomes configurable with a default.
+
+**Why a string, not an enum?** Future framework runtimes are unknown. A string allows `'@animus-ui/vue'`, `'my-custom-runtime'`, or any package that exports `createComponent`.
+
+### 3. System re-exports theming
+
+```typescript
+// packages/system/src/index.ts
+export { createTheme } from '@animus-ui/theming';
+export type { ThemeBuilder, /* etc */ } from '@animus-ui/theming';
+```
+
+Consumers write `import { createSystem, createTheme } from '@animus-ui/system'`. Theming stays as a separate internal package (for build order and separation of concerns) but isn't part of the public API surface.
+
+**Why not bundle theming into system's dist?** Theming is also used by core (old world). Keeping it as a separate package avoids circular dependencies and keeps the build graph clean. Re-exporting is simpler and maintains a single source of truth.
+
+### 4. Kill vite-plugin's core imports
+
+Two files import from `@animus-ui/core`:
+- `config-serializer.ts` — builds a `TRANSFORM_MAP` and serializes prop config. **Replaced by** `ds.serialize().propConfig` and `ds.serialize().transforms`.
+- `resolve-transforms.ts` — builds a transform registry from core's prop groups. **Replaced by** the in-memory transform registry from `ds.serialize().transforms`.
+
+Both are legacy from before the system package existed. The system's `.serialize()` already provides everything these files compute. Delete both files and remove the `@animus-ui/core` dependency from vite-plugin.
+
+### 5. Version alignment: `0.1.0-next.1`
+
+All four publishable packages start at `0.1.0-next.1`. The `-next.N` suffix keeps `latest` tag clean on npm. Publish with `npm publish --tag next`. Consumers install via `bun add @animus-ui/system@next`.
+
+Theming stays at whatever version it's at internally — it's a dependency of system but not directly published to consumers.
+
+### 6. Package metadata pattern
+
+All four publishable packages get:
+
+```json
+{
+  "author": "Aaron Robb <airrobb@gmail.com>",
+  "license": "MIT",
+  "repository": {
+    "type": "git",
+    "url": "git+https://github.com/codecaaron/animus.git",
+    "directory": "packages/<name>"
+  },
+  "homepage": "https://github.com/codecaaron/animus",
+  "publishConfig": { "access": "public" },
+  "files": ["dist"],
+  "exports": {
+    ".": {
+      "types": "./dist/index.d.ts",
+      "import": "./dist/index.mjs"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Extract's `files` field is different: `["index.js", "index.d.ts", "*.node"]` (NAPI binary pattern).
+
+System has additional subpath exports: `"./groups"` for the prop group re-exports.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**Theming as transitive dependency** → Consumers don't install it directly, but it appears in their `node_modules`. If theming has a bug, consumers can't pin it independently. → Mitigated by versioning system and theming together.
+
+**`resolve-transforms.ts` deletion** → This subprocess is used during buildStart for transform post-processing. Need to verify the system's serialize path fully replaces it. → The system path already works for showcase (it was shipped in the global styles subprocess change).
+
+**React in package name** → Commits to "this package is React-only." If someone uses it with Preact (compatible API), the name is misleading. → Acceptable — Preact users can set `runtime: '@animus-ui/react'` and it works. The name reflects the primary target.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- **Should `@animus-ui/react` re-export system types?** E.g., `import type { AnimusComponent } from '@animus-ui/react'`. Probably not — keep react as a thin shim. Types come from system.
+- **Should theming be listed as a `dependency` or `peerDependency` of system?** Dependency (consumers shouldn't need to know about it). But this means version coordination is on us, not the consumer.

+## Why
+
+The monorepo's package graph was designed around the old Emotion-based world (core → theming → components). The extraction pipeline changes what ships: the entire extraction pipeline is framework-agnostic, and the ONLY framework coupling is the runtime shim (`createComponent`). The current package structure leaks implementation details (consumers shouldn't need to know about `@animus-ui/theming` or `@animus-ui/runtime` as separate packages), and four of six publishable packages are blocked by `private: true` and missing metadata. The `next` branch needs a clean publishing surface for beta releases under `--tag next`.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **BREAKING**: Rename `@animus-ui/runtime` → `@animus-ui/react`. The runtime shim is React-specific — naming it `react` makes the framework coupling explicit and opens the door for `@animus-ui/vue` etc.
+- **`@animus-ui/system` re-exports theming**: `createTheme` and other theming public API re-exported from system so consumers never import `@animus-ui/theming` directly. Theming becomes an internal dependency.
+- **Vite plugin gains `runtime` option**: String option (defaults to `'@animus-ui/react'`) controlling which package the transformed source imports `createComponent` from. Makes the plugin framework-agnostic.
+- **Kill vite-plugin's `@animus-ui/core` dependency**: `config-serializer.ts` and `resolve-transforms.ts` import from core but are legacy — the system's `.serialize()` already provides everything they compute. Remove these files and the core dependency.
+- **Publishing metadata**: Remove `private: true`, add `author`, `license`, `repository`, `publishConfig`, `exports`, `files` to system, react, extract, vite-plugin.
+- **Version alignment**: All publishable packages to `0.1.0-next.1` for initial beta.
+- **`workspace:*` → version ranges**: Convert workspace protocol references to real semver ranges for npm compatibility.
+
+### Packages that ship (new world)

+
+### Packages that DO NOT ship
+
+| Package | Reason |
+|---------|--------|
+| `@animus-ui/core` | Old Emotion-based builder. System has its own. |
+| `@animus-ui/theming` | Re-exported through system. Internal dep only. |
+| `@animus-ui/components` | Old Emotion UI components. Showcase replaces. |
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `publishing-config`: Package metadata, exports fields, files fields, version alignment, and npm publishing configuration for all publishable packages.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `extraction-runtime-shim`: Package renamed from `@animus-ui/runtime` to `@animus-ui/react`. Same API, new package name.
+- `system-builder`: System re-exports theming public API (`createTheme` and related types).
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Gains `runtime` option for framework-agnostic transform output. Removes `@animus-ui/core` dependency — legacy serialization code replaced by system's serialize output.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/runtime/`**: Renamed to `packages/react/`. `package.json` name changes to `@animus-ui/react`.
+- **`packages/system/`**: Gains re-exports from `@animus-ui/theming`. Dependency on runtime changes to `@animus-ui/react`.
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/`**: `@animus-ui/core` dependency removed. `config-serializer.ts` and `resolve-transforms.ts` deleted or rewritten. Transform output references configurable runtime package.
+- **`packages/extract/`**: No code changes — only package.json metadata.
+- **All publishable packages**: `private: true` removed, metadata added, `exports`/`files` fields added.
+- **Showcase**: Import paths update from `@animus-ui/runtime` → `@animus-ui/react` (if any explicit imports exist — most are inserted by extraction).
+- **Build order**: `extract → core → theming → react → system → vite-plugin` (core/theming still build for internal use, just don't publish).

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Configurable runtime package
+The Vite plugin SHALL accept a `runtime` option (string) that controls which package the transformed source imports `createComponent` from. The default value SHALL be `'@animus-ui/react'`.
+
+#### Scenario: Default runtime import
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })` with no `runtime` option
+- **THEN** transformed source SHALL contain `import { createComponent } from '@animus-ui/react'`

+- **WHEN** consumer sets `runtime` to any valid npm package name
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL use that string as-is in the generated import statement
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Prop config serialization
+**Reason:** The `config-serializer.ts` file imports from `@animus-ui/core` to build a `TRANSFORM_MAP` and serialize prop config. This is replaced by `ds.serialize().propConfig` and `ds.serialize().transforms` from the system package. The system's serialization provides the same data without requiring a core dependency.
+**Migration:** Remove `config-serializer.ts`. Use `serialize().propConfig` (already JSON) and `serialize().transforms` (already a function map) from the system load subprocess.
+
+### Requirement: Transform registry built from config
+**Reason:** The `resolve-transforms.ts` file imports all prop groups from `@animus-ui/core` to build a transform registry. This is replaced by `ds.serialize().transforms` from the system package, which already collects all transform functions (including custom transforms from `.withProperties()`).
+**Migration:** Remove `resolve-transforms.ts`. Use the in-memory transform registry from `serialize().transforms`. The global styles subprocess (`resolve-global-styles.ts`) already uses this pattern.

+## Context
+
+The system builder currently registers two kinds of vocabulary: **tokens** (via `.withTokens()` — value vocabulary, what `'surface'` means) and **properties** (via `.withProperties()` — prop vocabulary, what CSS properties exist and what scales they use). Both are resolved at extraction time by the Rust crate.
+
+Component authors currently write raw CSS attribute selectors for DOM state targeting: `'&[data-state="open"]'`, `'&[disabled]'`, `'&[aria-expanded="true"]'`. These strings are verbose, inconsistent across components, and invisible to the type system. The selector registry adds the third vocabulary axis: **targeting vocabulary** — what DOM state names mean as CSS selectors.
+
+The cascade contract is unchanged. Selectors are not a layer. They're vocabulary consumed BY layers — the layer is determined by WHERE you write the selector shorthand (`.styles()` → `@layer base`, `.variant()` → `@layer variants`, etc.).
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- System-level registration of selector shorthands via `.withSelectors()`
+- `'&:open'` shorthand syntax in style objects, expanding to registered attribute selectors
+- Type-safe autocomplete for registered selector names in style object keys
+- Extraction-time resolution — zero runtime cost
+- Serialization of selector registry to extraction pipeline
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Compound selector expansion (`'&:open:disabled'` auto-expanding both — use nesting instead)
+- CSS pseudo-class/element shadowing (registered names MUST NOT collide with CSS pseudo-classes)
+- Runtime selector resolution — this is purely extraction-time
+- New cascade layers — no `@layer selectors` or similar
+- State prop forwarding to DOM — separate concern (see cascade-assertions proposal)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Selector registry is a `Record<string, string>` map
+
+The simplest possible shape: `{ open: '[data-state="open"]', disabled: '[disabled]' }`. The key is the shorthand name, the value is the full CSS attribute selector (without the `&`). This matches the mental model of "name → what it means" that tokens already establish.
+
+**Why not functions?** Selectors don't need runtime evaluation. They're static mappings. A `Record` is serializable, inspectable, and trivially passed to the Rust crate as JSON.
+
+**Why not a builder pattern?** No accumulation needed. Selectors are independent — they don't have scales, transforms, or groups. A flat map is sufficient.
+
+### 2. Shorthand syntax: `'&:name'` where `name` is a registered selector
+
+Uses the CSS pseudo-class syntax position (`&:`) because it reads naturally in style objects: `'&:open': { maxHeight: '500px' }`. The expansion rule is simple: if the segment after `&:` exactly matches a registered selector key, replace `&:name` with `&${value}`.
+
+**Disambiguation from CSS pseudo-classes:** The registry is a closed vocabulary. Expansion only fires when the name matches a registered key. `&:hover` passes through unchanged because `hover` is not in the registry. Constraint: consumers MUST NOT register names that collide with CSS pseudo-classes (`hover`, `focus`, `active`, `visited`, `first-child`, etc.) or pseudo-elements (`before`, `after`, `placeholder`).
+
+**Why not a different prefix?** Alternatives considered:
+- `'&[open]'` — conflicts with actual attribute selectors, loses the "this is a shorthand" signal
+- `'&$open'` — unfamiliar syntax, no CSS precedent
+- `'&::open'` — pseudo-element syntax, semantically wrong
+- `'data:open'` — looks like a URI scheme
+
+The `&:name` syntax has the best ergonomics and the collision risk is manageable via the closed-vocabulary constraint.
+
+### 3. Single-segment expansion only (v1)
+
+`'&:open'` expands. `'&:open:disabled'` does NOT auto-expand both segments — write compound selectors via nesting:
+
+```tsx
+'&:open': {
+  '&:disabled': { opacity: 0.4 }
+}
+```
+
+This avoids the complexity of splitting on `:` boundaries (which would need to handle `::before`, `:nth-child()`, etc.). Compound expansion can be a v2 enhancement if nesting proves too verbose in practice.
+
+### 4. SystemBuilder gains `#selectors` field and `.withSelectors()` method
+
+Same pattern as `.withGlobalStyles()` — stores the map, returns a new builder with the updated field. The generic parameter carries selector names for type narrowing.
+
+```typescript
+class SystemBuilder<T, PropReg, GroupReg, Selectors extends Record<string, string> = {}> {
+  #selectors: Selectors;
+
+  withSelectors<S extends Record<string, string>>(
+    selectors: S
+  ): SystemBuilder<T, PropReg, GroupReg, S> {
+    return new SystemBuilder(
+      this.#tokens, this.#propRegistry, this.#groupRegistry,
+      this.#globalStyles, selectors
+    );
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 5. SerializedConfig gains `selectors` field
+
+```typescript
+interface SerializedConfig {
+  // ...existing fields
+  selectors?: Record<string, string>;
+}
+```
+
+Serialized as a plain object (not JSON string) since it's already a simple `Record<string, string>`. The Vite plugin passes it to the Rust crate alongside `config_json`.
+
+### 6. Rust crate expansion during CSS generation
+
+The selector map is passed to the CSS generator as part of the extraction config. During CSS generation, when emitting a selector key that starts with `&:`, the generator checks if the suffix matches a registered selector. If so, it replaces the key with `&${registered_value}`.
+
+This happens at the same stage as theme scale resolution — during CSS generation, not during AST parsing or chain walking.
+
+### 7. Type narrowing for style object keys
+
+Style object types gain awareness of registered selectors via a mapped type:
+
+```typescript
+type SelectorKeys<S extends Record<string, string>> =
+  `&:${keyof S & string}`;
+```
+
+This feeds into `ThemedCSSProps` so that autocomplete shows `'&:open'`, `'&:disabled'` alongside arbitrary CSS selectors. Arbitrary string selectors remain valid (the type is a union with `string`, not restrictive), but registered names appear in autocomplete.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**Pseudo-class collision** → Mitigated by documentation + TypeScript constraint. Could add a build-time check that warns if a registered name matches a known CSS pseudo-class. Low priority — the closed vocabulary means this is a conscious choice, not an accident.
+
+**Selector map not validated** → The registry accepts any string as the value. A typo in `'[data-state="opne"]'` would silently produce wrong selectors. → Mitigated by the fact that this is a system-level definition (written once, reviewed carefully). Could add Vite plugin validation that checks attribute selector syntax.
+
+**Generic parameter proliferation** → SystemBuilder goes from 3 to 4 generic parameters. → Acceptable: the pattern is established. Users never see these generics — they're inferred by the builder chain.
+
+**No runtime awareness** → If a component uses `'&:disabled'` shorthand but the runtime doesn't forward `disabled` to the DOM, the selector never matches. → Explicitly a non-goal for this change. State prop forwarding is a separate concern tracked in the cascade-assertions proposal.

+## Why
+
+The system has vocabulary for values (tokens) and CSS properties (prop registry), but no vocabulary for DOM targeting patterns. Component authors repeatedly write raw attribute selectors (`'&[data-state="open"]'`, `'&[disabled]'`, `'&[aria-expanded="true"]'`) — strings that are verbose, typo-prone, and inconsistent across components. Selectors need the same "register once, use everywhere" treatment that tokens and transforms already have.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **New system builder method**: `.withSelectors()` registers a map of shorthand names to CSS attribute selectors. Sits alongside `.withTokens()` and `.withProperties()` as system-level vocabulary — not a cascade layer, not CSS emission.
+- **Shorthand syntax in style objects**: `'&:open': { ... }` expands to `'&[data-state="open"]': { ... }` when `open` is a registered selector. Usable in any style position (`.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()`). The cascade layer is determined by WHERE the shorthand appears, not by the selector itself.
+- **Extraction-time resolution**: The Rust crate and Vite plugin expand selector shorthands to full attribute selectors during CSS generation. Zero runtime cost.
+- **Serialization**: `SerializedConfig` gains a `selectors` field carrying the registry to the extraction pipeline.
+- **Type safety**: Registered selector names provide autocomplete in style object keys via `&:${keyof Selectors}` pattern.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `selector-registry`: System builder method for registering selector shorthands. Defines the registry API, shorthand expansion rules, type narrowing, and serialization contract.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `system-builder`: Gains `.withSelectors()` in the builder chain. New generic parameter for selector names.
+- `system-serialization`: `SerializedConfig` gains `selectors: Record<string, string>` field.
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: Selector shorthand expansion during CSS generation — registered shorthands in style object keys resolved to full attribute selectors.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Passes selector registry from serialized config through to extraction pipeline.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/system/`**: `SystemBuilder` gains `.withSelectors()` method and `Selectors` generic parameter. `SerializedConfig` type gains `selectors` field.
+- **`packages/extract/`**: CSS generation expands `&:name` keys to `&<registered-selector>` in emitted CSS. Selector map received as part of extraction config.
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/`**: Passes selector registry from loaded system config to Rust extraction calls.
+- **No runtime impact**: Selectors are resolved at extraction time. `createComponent` is unchanged.
+- **No cascade changes**: `@layer base, variants, states, system` unchanged. Selectors are vocabulary, not layers.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: CSS generation with @layer
+The CSS generator SHALL produce CSS structured with shared `@layer` declarations. Base styles go in `@layer base`, variant styles in `@layer variants`, state styles in `@layer states`. Responsive values SHALL be emitted as `@media` queries within their respective layers. Pseudo-selectors SHALL be emitted as nested selectors within class rules. When a selector registry is provided, style object keys matching `&:name` where `name` is a registered selector key SHALL be expanded to `&${registeredValue}` before CSS emission.
+
+#### Scenario: Generate base styles
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.styles({ padding: '0.5rem', display: 'inline-flex' })`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `@layer base { .animus-Name-hash { padding: 0.5rem; display: inline-flex; } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Generate variant styles
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.variant({ variants: { fill: { color: 'var(--colors-background)' }, stroke: { border: '1px solid' } } })`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `@layer variants { .animus-Name-hash--variant-fill { color: var(--colors-background); } .animus-Name-hash--variant-stroke { border: 1px solid; } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Generate state styles
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.states({ loading: { opacity: 0 }, disabled: { cursor: 'not-allowed' } })`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `@layer states { .animus-Name-hash--loading { opacity: 0; } .animus-Name-hash--disabled { cursor: not-allowed; } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Generate responsive @media
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.styles({ fontSize: { _: '1rem', sm: '1.125rem' } })` and breakpoints has `{ sm: 768 }`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain the default value outside any media query AND `@media (min-width: 768px) { .animus-Name-hash { font-size: 1.125rem; } }` within `@layer base`
+
+#### Scenario: Generate pseudo-selector
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.styles({ '&:hover': { color: 'var(--colors-primary)' } })`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `.animus-Name-hash:hover { color: var(--colors-primary); }` within `@layer base`
+
+#### Scenario: Generate variant with pseudo-selector
+- **WHEN** a variant option contains `{ '&:before': { content: '""', position: 'absolute' } }`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `.animus-Name-hash--variant-stroke::before { content: ""; position: absolute; }` within `@layer variants`
+
+#### Scenario: @layer declaration order
+- **WHEN** any extraction produces CSS
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL begin with `@layer global, base, variants, states, system, custom;` to establish layer precedence
+
+#### Scenario: Expand registered selector shorthand
+- **WHEN** a selector registry contains `{ open: '[data-state="open"]' }` and a style object key is `'&:open'`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL emit `&[data-state="open"]` as the selector — the shorthand is expanded before CSS emission
+
+#### Scenario: Unregistered pseudo-class passes through
+- **WHEN** a style object key is `'&:hover'` and `hover` is NOT in the selector registry
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL emit `&:hover` unchanged — standard CSS pseudo-class behavior
+
+#### Scenario: Nested selector expansion
+- **WHEN** a selector registry contains `open` and `disabled` and a style object has `'&:open': { '&:disabled': { opacity: '0.3' } }`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL expand both levels: the outer selector becomes `&[data-state="open"]` and the inner becomes `&[disabled]`
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Selector registry in extraction config
+The extraction functions SHALL accept an optional selector registry as part of their configuration. The registry SHALL be a JSON-serialized `Record<string, string>` passed alongside theme and prop config.
+
+#### Scenario: analyze_project receives selector registry
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` is called with a selector registry in its config
+- **THEN** the CSS generator SHALL use the registry for selector shorthand expansion across all components in the project
+
+#### Scenario: extract receives selector registry
+- **WHEN** `extract()` is called with a selector registry in its config
+- **THEN** per-file extraction SHALL expand selector shorthands using the provided registry
+
+#### Scenario: No registry provided
+- **WHEN** extraction functions are called without a selector registry (or with an empty registry)
+- **THEN** no selector expansion SHALL occur — all `&:name` keys pass through as CSS pseudo-classes

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Selector registry definition
+The system builder SHALL accept a `.withSelectors()` method that takes a `Record<string, string>` mapping shorthand names to CSS attribute selector strings. The keys are shorthand names (e.g., `open`, `disabled`). The values are CSS attribute selectors WITHOUT the `&` prefix (e.g., `[data-state="open"]`, `[disabled]`).
+
+#### Scenario: Register selectors on system
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.withSelectors({ open: '[data-state="open"]', closed: '[data-state="closed"]', disabled: '[disabled]' })`
+- **THEN** the system SHALL store the selector map and make it available via serialization
+
+#### Scenario: Empty registry is valid
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.withSelectors({})`
+- **THEN** the system SHALL accept the empty map with no errors
+
+#### Scenario: Omitting withSelectors is valid
+- **WHEN** consumer does not call `.withSelectors()` in the builder chain
+- **THEN** the system SHALL operate with an empty selector registry (no shorthand expansion)
+
+### Requirement: Selector shorthand expansion in style objects
+Registered selector shorthands SHALL be usable as style object keys in the form `'&:name'` where `name` exactly matches a registered selector key. At extraction time, `'&:name'` SHALL be expanded to `'&${registeredValue}'`.
+
+#### Scenario: Shorthand expands in .styles()
+- **WHEN** `open` is registered as `[data-state="open"]` and a component has `.styles({ '&:open': { maxHeight: '500px' } })`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `&[data-state="open"] { max-height: 500px; }` within `@layer base`
+
+#### Scenario: Shorthand expands in .variant()
+- **WHEN** `disabled` is registered as `[disabled]` and a variant contains `{ '&:disabled': { opacity: '0.4' } }`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `&[disabled] { opacity: 0.4; }` within `@layer variants`
+
+#### Scenario: Shorthand expands in .states()
+- **WHEN** `active` is registered as `[data-active]` and a state contains `{ '&:active': { borderColor: 'primary' } }`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `&[data-active] { border-color: var(--colors-primary); }` within `@layer states`
+
+#### Scenario: Unregistered name passes through
+- **WHEN** `hover` is NOT a registered selector and a style object contains `'&:hover': { color: 'primary' }`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `&:hover { color: var(--colors-primary); }` — standard CSS pseudo-class, no expansion
+
+#### Scenario: Nested shorthand expansion
+- **WHEN** `open` and `disabled` are both registered and a style object contains `'&:open': { '&:disabled': { opacity: '0.3' } }`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL expand both: `&[data-state="open"] { &[disabled] { opacity: 0.3; } }`
+
+### Requirement: Single-segment expansion only
+Selector shorthand expansion SHALL match only when the ENTIRE segment after `&:` matches a registered key. Multi-segment compound selectors (e.g., `'&:open:disabled'`) SHALL NOT auto-expand individual segments.
+
+#### Scenario: Compound selector not auto-expanded
+- **WHEN** both `open` and `disabled` are registered and a style object contains `'&:open:disabled': { opacity: '0.3' }`
+- **THEN** `open:disabled` SHALL NOT match any registered key (no key named `open:disabled` exists) and SHALL pass through as a raw CSS selector `&:open:disabled`
+
+#### Scenario: Nesting achieves compound targeting
+- **WHEN** consumer needs to target `[data-state="open"][disabled]`
+- **THEN** they SHALL use nesting: `'&:open': { '&:disabled': { ... } }` — each level expands independently
+
+### Requirement: Type-safe selector autocomplete
+Registered selector names SHALL appear in style object key autocomplete via a `SelectorKeys` mapped type that produces `'&:${keyof Selectors}'` unions.
+
+#### Scenario: Autocomplete shows registered selectors
+- **WHEN** consumer types `'&:'` in a style object and selectors `open`, `closed`, `disabled` are registered
+- **THEN** TypeScript autocomplete SHALL suggest `'&:open'`, `'&:closed'`, `'&:disabled'`
+
+#### Scenario: Arbitrary selectors remain valid
+- **WHEN** consumer writes `'&:hover': { ... }` or `'&[custom-attr]': { ... }` in a style object
+- **THEN** the type system SHALL accept these — selector keys are a union of registered shorthands AND arbitrary strings, not exclusive

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Concentric builder with sequential generic inference
+The system builder SHALL provide a fluent API with callback-isolated phases: `.withTokens()` and `.withProperties()`. Each phase SHALL capture its generics independently via TypeScript's sequential method-chain inference. The terminal `.build()` SHALL return a `SystemInstance<T, PropRegistry, GroupRegistry, Selectors>`. The builder SHALL additionally accept `.withSelectors()` as a vocabulary registration phase alongside `.withTokens()` and `.withProperties()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Full system definition
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createSystem().withTokens(t => t.breakpoints({...}).colors({...}).build()).withProperties(p => p.addGroup('surface', { color, border }).build()).withSelectors({ open: '[data-state="open"]' }).build()`
+- **THEN** the return type SHALL be `SystemInstance<T, PropReg, GroupReg, Selectors>` where T is inferred from the token builder callback return, PropReg/GroupReg from the property builder callback return, and Selectors from the withSelectors argument
+
+#### Scenario: Token phase captures T
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.withTokens(t => t.colors({ primary: '#4f46e5', secondary: '#7c3aed' }).build())`
+- **THEN** T SHALL include `{ colors: { primary: string; secondary: string } }` and subsequent phases SHALL have access to `T`
+
+#### Scenario: Property phase captures PropRegistry and GroupRegistry
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.withProperties(p => p.addGroup('surface', { color, border }).addGroup('text', { typography }).build())`
+- **THEN** PropRegistry SHALL be the union of all prop definitions across groups, and GroupRegistry SHALL map group names to their prop keys
+
+#### Scenario: Phases are lexically isolated
+- **WHEN** inside the `.withTokens()` callback
+- **THEN** only ThemeBuilder methods SHALL be available (not `.addGroup()` or `.build()` from the system level)
+
+#### Scenario: withSelectors is optional
+- **WHEN** consumer omits `.withSelectors()` from the builder chain
+- **THEN** the system SHALL build with an empty selector registry (`Selectors = {}`) and all functionality SHALL work unchanged
+
+#### Scenario: withSelectors ordering is flexible
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.withSelectors()` before `.withProperties()` or after `.withGlobalStyles()`
+- **THEN** the builder SHALL accept the call in any position — `.withSelectors()` is order-independent like `.withGlobalStyles()`

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: System instance exposes serialize method
+The SystemInstance SHALL expose a `.serialize()` method that returns all configuration the Vite plugin needs in a single call: tokens, prop config, group registry, transform registry, and selector registry.
+
+#### Scenario: Serialize produces complete plugin config
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `ds.serialize()`
+- **THEN** the return value SHALL contain `{ tokens, propConfig, groupRegistry, transforms, selectors }` where tokens is the built theme object, propConfig is the serialized prop definitions, groupRegistry maps group names to prop name arrays, transforms maps transform names to transform functions, and selectors maps shorthand names to CSS attribute selector strings
+
+#### Scenario: Transforms collected from prop definitions
+- **WHEN** prop groups contain props with `transform: createTransform('size', fn)`
+- **THEN** `ds.serialize().transforms` SHALL include `{ size: fn }` extracted by walking all prop definitions in all groups
+
+#### Scenario: Custom transforms collected
+- **WHEN** a custom group contains `{ elevation: { property: 'boxShadow', transform: createTransform('elevation', fn) } }`
+- **THEN** `ds.serialize().transforms` SHALL include `{ elevation: fn }` alongside default transforms
+
+#### Scenario: Selectors included in serialization
+- **WHEN** consumer has called `.withSelectors({ open: '[data-state="open"]', disabled: '[disabled]' })`
+- **THEN** `ds.serialize().selectors` SHALL be `{ open: '[data-state="open"]', disabled: '[disabled]' }`
+
+#### Scenario: No selectors registered
+- **WHEN** consumer has not called `.withSelectors()`
+- **THEN** `ds.serialize().selectors` SHALL be `undefined` or omitted

+## Context
+
+Currently, `SystemBuilder` manages three concerns: property registration, property grouping, and global style configuration. The `.withGlobalStyles({ reset, global })` method stores global styles on the builder, and `.build()` includes them in the `SerializedConfig` returned by `serialize()`. The Vite plugin then launches a subprocess (`resolve-global-styles.ts`) that imports the system module, calls `.serialize()`, extracts `globalStyles`, and resolves prop shorthand + token aliases to produce final CSS emitted into `@layer global`.
+
+The current approach couples document-level CSS emission to the system builder chain. Global styles serve the browser, not the component authoring API. They're a different lifecycle concern.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Remove `withGlobalStyles` from SystemBuilder so it only manages prop/group concerns
+- Return `createGlobalStyles` as a sibling from `.build()` so global styles share the token vocabulary without polluting the component authoring instance
+- Allow composable global style blocks — consumers organize resets, theming, keyframes however they want (no prescribed `{ reset, global }` structure)
+- Maintain the existing global styles resolution pipeline (prop shorthand, token aliases, transforms, keyframes)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing how the Rust crate emits `@layer global` (that stays as-is)
+- Changing the resolve-global-styles subprocess architecture
+- Adding new global style capabilities (nesting, conditionals, etc.)
+- Renaming `createSystem` (handled by a separate change)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. `.build()` returns a tuple object instead of a bare instance
+
+**Choice:** `createSystem().addProperties(...).build()` returns `{ system: Animus, createGlobalStyles: (styles) => GlobalStyleBlock }`
+
+**Why:** This cleanly separates the two products of system configuration. The `system` (Animus instance) is the component authoring API. `createGlobalStyles` is a factory that captures the prop registry and transform map from the same build, so it can resolve shorthand and tokens without the consumer re-supplying config.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Keep build returning a bare instance, add `createGlobalStyles` as a standalone export. Rejected because it would need the prop config passed in manually or looked up from a global — the factory closure is cleaner.
+
+### 2. Global style blocks are flat selector maps, not `{ reset, global }`
+
+**Choice:** `createGlobalStyles` accepts `Record<string, Record<string, any>>` — a flat map of CSS selectors to style objects. The consumer decides how many blocks to create and what goes in each.
+
+**Why:** The `{ reset, global }` split was arbitrary — it implied a structure the system doesn't enforce. Consumers might want `reset`, `theme`, `animations` as three blocks, or everything in one. The system shouldn't prescribe this.
+
+**Impact on plugin:** The plugin currently checks `parsed.globalStyles.reset` and `parsed.globalStyles.global` separately. With the new approach, global styles arrive as an array of named blocks (or a single merged block). The resolve-global-styles subprocess processes each block identically.
+
+### 3. Plugin discovers global styles via a separate export
+
+**Choice:** The consumer exports global style blocks as named exports alongside the system. The plugin config gains an optional `globalStyles` field pointing to the export names (defaulting to conventional names).
+
+**Why:** Currently the plugin finds global styles inside `serialize().globalStyles`. With global styles separated from the system instance, they need a new discovery path. Named exports from the same file keeps everything colocated.
+
+```typescript
+// ds.ts
+export const { system: ds, createGlobalStyles } = createSystem()...build()
+
+export const reset = createGlobalStyles({...})
+export const globalStyles = createGlobalStyles({...})
+```
+
+The resolve-global-styles subprocess imports the module and looks for these exports.
+
+### 4. `serialize()` no longer includes globalStyles
+
+**Choice:** `SerializedConfig` drops the `globalStyles` field. The system instance's `serialize()` only returns `propConfig`, `groupRegistry`, and `transforms`.
+
+**Why:** Global styles are no longer part of the system builder's state. The plugin gets them through a separate channel.
+
+**Note:** `serialize()` itself may be further refactored in a separate change. For now, it remains on the system instance but with reduced scope.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **Breaking change for consumers:** Any code using `withGlobalStyles` must restructure. Mitigated by: clear migration path, the showcase is the only known consumer, and this is pre-v0.10.
+- **Plugin needs updated discovery:** The subprocess must be updated to find global styles from module exports rather than from `serialize()`. Low risk — the resolution logic stays identical, only the input channel changes.
+- **Two imports from ds.ts instead of one:** Consumers now destructure `{ system, createGlobalStyles }` from build, then export both the system and global style blocks. Slightly more ceremony in the setup file, but this file is written once.

+## Why
+
+`withGlobalStyles()` on the `SystemBuilder` chain conflates two distinct concerns: defining the component API vocabulary (props, groups, scales, transforms) and emitting document-level CSS (resets, body defaults, scrollbar styles, keyframes). These serve different audiences — the component author vs. the browser — and have different lifecycles. Separating them clarifies what `createSystem` is responsible for and enables composable global style blocks rather than the current prescriptive `{ reset, global }` split.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **BREAKING**: Remove `.withGlobalStyles()` from the `SystemBuilder` chain
+- **BREAKING**: `createSystem().build()` returns `{ system, createGlobalStyles }` instead of a bare `SystemInstance`
+- Introduce `createGlobalStyles` as a sibling factory produced by the same build — shares the token vocabulary but is a separate concern
+- Global style blocks are composable: consumers call `createGlobalStyles()` as many times as needed, organizing resets, theming, and keyframes however they want
+- Remove the `GlobalStylesConfig` type and its `{ reset?, global? }` structure — global styles are just selector-to-style maps
+- Update `SerializedConfig` to receive global styles through a separate channel rather than the system instance
+- Update the Vite plugin to discover global style exports alongside the system export
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `global-styles-factory`: Factory function returned from system build that produces composable global style blocks independent of the system builder chain
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+<!-- No existing specs to modify -->
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/system/src/SystemBuilder.ts` — Remove `withGlobalStyles`, `GlobalStylesConfig`, change `.build()` return type
+- `packages/system/src/index.ts` — Update exports
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts` — Update global styles discovery (currently reads from `serialize().globalStyles`)
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/resolve-global-styles.mjs` — May need updated evaluation path
+- `packages/extract/src/css_generator.rs` — `@layer global` emission may need to accept styles from a different source
+- `packages/showcase/src/ds.ts` — Consumer migration: destructure build result, move global styles to `createGlobalStyles()` calls
+- All consumer code that imports `ds` directly will need to adjust to destructured import

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Build returns system and globalStyles factory
+`createSystem().build()` SHALL return an object with two properties: `system` (the Animus component authoring instance) and `createGlobalStyles` (a factory function for producing global style blocks).
+
+#### Scenario: Destructured build result
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `createSystem().addGroup(...).build()`
+- **THEN** the return value SHALL be `{ system: SystemInstance, createGlobalStyles: GlobalStylesFactory }`
+- **AND** `system` SHALL be an Animus instance with `.styles()`, `.variant()`, and all component chain methods
+- **AND** `createGlobalStyles` SHALL be a function that accepts a selector-to-styles map
+
+#### Scenario: System instance has no global style methods
+- **WHEN** a consumer accesses the `system` property from the build result
+- **THEN** the instance SHALL NOT have a `withGlobalStyles` method
+- **AND** the instance SHALL NOT carry any global style configuration
+
+### Requirement: createGlobalStyles produces composable blocks
+The `createGlobalStyles` factory SHALL accept a flat `Record<string, Record<string, any>>` mapping CSS selectors to style objects. Each call produces an independent global style block.
+
+#### Scenario: Single global style block
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `createGlobalStyles({ 'html, body': { bg: 'bg', color: 'text' } })`
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce a global style block with resolved prop shorthand and token values
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple independent blocks
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `createGlobalStyles` multiple times with different selector maps
+- **THEN** each call SHALL produce an independent block
+- **AND** blocks SHALL NOT share state or interfere with each other
+
+#### Scenario: Keyframes in global styles
+- **WHEN** a consumer includes `@keyframes` selectors in a global style block
+- **THEN** the factory SHALL support nested keyframe structures (selector → percentages → props)
+- **AND** keyframe values SHALL resolve prop shorthand and token aliases
+
+### Requirement: Global styles factory shares token vocabulary
+The `createGlobalStyles` factory SHALL resolve prop shorthand, scale lookups, transforms, and token aliases using the prop registry and transform map from the system build that produced it.
+
+#### Scenario: Prop shorthand resolution
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains `{ bg: 'surface', p: 24 }`
+- **THEN** `bg` SHALL resolve to `background-color` via the prop config
+- **AND** `p` SHALL resolve to `padding` with scale lookup via the prop config
+
+#### Scenario: Token alias resolution
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains `{ boxShadow: '0 0 8px {colors.primary/40}' }`
+- **THEN** the token alias SHALL resolve to `color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-primary) 40%, transparent)`
+
+#### Scenario: Transform application
+- **WHEN** a global style block uses a prop that has a named transform (e.g., `fluidSize`)
+- **THEN** the transform SHALL be applied during resolution
+
+### Requirement: Plugin discovers global styles from module exports
+The Vite plugin SHALL discover global style blocks from named exports in the system module file, not from `serialize().globalStyles`.
+
+#### Scenario: Default export discovery
+- **WHEN** the system module exports named variables created by `createGlobalStyles`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL import these exports and resolve them via the existing subprocess pipeline
+
+#### Scenario: No global styles exported
+- **WHEN** the system module does not export any global style blocks
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL emit no `@layer global` content
+- **AND** no error or warning SHALL be produced
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: withGlobalStyles on SystemBuilder
+**Reason**: Global styles are a document-level emission concern, not a component API vocabulary concern. Mixing them on the same builder chain conflated two distinct responsibilities.
+**Migration**: Replace `.withGlobalStyles({ reset: {...}, global: {...} })` with separate `createGlobalStyles({...})` calls using the factory from `.build()`.
+
+### Requirement: GlobalStylesConfig type with reset/global split
+**Reason**: The `{ reset?: GlobalStyleMap, global?: GlobalStyleMap }` structure prescribed an arbitrary organizational split. Consumers should organize global styles however they want.
+**Migration**: Merge reset and global into flat selector maps passed to `createGlobalStyles()`.

+## Context
+
+The Rust extraction pipeline resolves `{scale.key}` token references in CSS string values to `var(--scale-key)` at build time. This works for any string-valued CSS property — `border: '1px solid {colors.secondary}'` becomes `border: 1px solid var(--colors-secondary)`. Alpha modifiers are also supported: `{colors.primary/10}`.
+
+The type system currently has no awareness of this syntax. Compound-value properties like `border`, `boxShadow`, `background` accept `string` (via `(string & {})` in PropertyTypes), which means any string passes — no autocomplete for token paths, no documentation of valid syntax.
+
+The infrastructure exists: `LiteralPaths<T>` flattens theme objects into dot-path string keys, `TokenScales<Theme>` filters internal keys, and `Theme` is augmentable. A TS 5.8.3 spike confirmed 200 token paths in a template literal is zero-cost (+202 types, 0ms check time).
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Export `TokenRef` type from `@animus-ui/system`, derived from augmented Theme
+- Token path autocomplete in IDE for `{scale.key}` syntax in CSS property values
+- Type regression tests covering acceptance, rejection, and structural properties
+- Graceful degradation when Theme is not augmented (`TokenRef` = `never`)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Validating token paths at the type level (extraction pipeline already does this at build time)
+- Multi-token compound values (e.g., `linear-gradient({colors.a}, {colors.b})`) — `(string & {})` handles these, type-level validation would hit combinatorial limits
+- Alpha modifier typing (`{colors.primary/10}`) — extraction handles this, typing the `/number` suffix is unnecessary complexity
+- Replacing csstype — we overlay, not replace
+- Runtime behavior changes
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. TokenRef definition
+
+```typescript
+export type TokenRef = `{${keyof LiteralPaths<TokenScales<Theme>> & string}}`;
+```
+
+Placed in `system/src/types/theme.ts` alongside `Theme` and `TokenScales`. Uses the existing `LiteralPaths` utility from the theme module. `& string` filters out `number | symbol` from `keyof`.
+
+**When Theme is augmented:** Resolves to `'{colors.primary}' | '{colors.secondary}' | '{space.4}' | ...`
+**When Theme is NOT augmented:** `TokenScales<Theme>` = `{}`, `keyof LiteralPaths<{}>` = `never`, `TokenRef` = `never`. Falls out of all unions silently.
+
+### 2. Injection point: PropertyTypes Overrides
+
+The `Overrides` generic parameter on `PropertyTypes` already controls what additional types every CSS property accepts. Current default: `(string & {}) | 0`.
+
+Change to: `(string & {}) | 0 | TokenRef`.
+
+This means every CSS property that accepts `string` also offers token ref autocomplete. For scale-bound properties (like `color` via the system prop registry), the scale narrowing from `ThemedCSSProps` takes priority — TokenRef is only visible in the fallback branch (nested selectors, non-system CSS properties).
+
+**Why not a targeted overlay?** TokenRef is valid in ANY string-valued CSS property — `border`, `boxShadow`, `background`, `content`, even `color` (if the consumer writes `color: '{colors.primary}'` instead of using the scale). A targeted overlay would be incomplete and harder to maintain.
+
+### 3. Autocomplete preservation
+
+`TokenRef` members are subtypes of `string`. In a union `string | TokenRef`, TypeScript collapses the template literal members. The existing `(string & {})` in the Overrides default prevents this — `(string & {}) | TokenRef` preserves both arbitrary strings and token ref autocomplete.
+
+No additional work needed — the `(string & {})` pattern is already in place.
+
+### 4. Type regression test structure
+
+Three levels of assertion in `types.test-d.tsx`:
+
+**Structural:** `TokenRef` is not `never` when Theme is augmented (the test fixture augments Theme)
+```typescript
+type _TokenRefNotNever = Assert<IsExact<TokenRef, never> extends true ? false : true>;
+```
+
+**Positive:** Token refs accepted in compound CSS property values
+```typescript
+ds.styles({ border: '{colors.primary}' as TokenRef });
+```
+
+**Negative (`@ts-expect-error`):** Invalid token paths rejected — proves TokenRef carries constraints, not just `string`
+```typescript
+// @ts-expect-error — 'colors.nonexistent' is not in the theme
+const _bad: TokenRef = '{colors.nonexistent}';
+```
+
+**Collapse guard:** TokenRef members survive in the union (not collapsed by string)
+```typescript
+type PropWithRef = (string & {}) | TokenRef;
+type _NotJustString = Assert<unknown extends PropWithRef ? false : true>;
+```
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Acceptable] TokenRef in ALL CSS properties:** Even properties where scale narrowing is primary (like `color`). The consumer can write `color: '{colors.primary}'` and it passes. This is correct — the extraction pipeline handles it. The scale-narrowed path (`color: 'primary'` via system props) is preferred but the token ref path is also valid.
+
+**[Acceptable] No alpha modifier typing:** `{colors.primary/10}` is valid extraction syntax but TokenRef doesn't include the `/number` suffix. The `(string & {})` fallback accepts it. Adding alpha modifier types would double the union size for minimal autocomplete benefit.
+
+**[Low risk] LiteralPaths on large themes:** A theme with 200 flattened paths produces a 200-member template literal union. Spike confirmed this is zero-cost. Themes would need 100K+ paths to hit the hard limit — impossible in practice.

+## Why
+
+Compound-value CSS properties (`border`, `boxShadow`, `background`, `transition`) accept token references via the `{scale.key}` syntax — the Rust extraction pipeline already resolves these to CSS variable references at build time. But the type system has no awareness of this vocabulary. These properties fall back to `string`, offering no autocomplete for token paths and no documentation that token interpolation is valid.
+
+The infrastructure to fix this already exists:
+- `LiteralPaths<T>` flattens a theme object into dot-path keys (`colors.primary`, `space.4`)
+- `Theme` is augmentable via module declaration — consumer themes populate it once
+- `TokenScales<Theme>` filters internal keys, leaving only valid token scale paths
+- `(string & {})` preserves template literal union members in autocomplete (prevents `string` collapse)
+
+A performance spike (TS 5.8.3) confirmed: 200 token paths in a template literal type is zero-cost. Single-slot expansion scales linearly. Named type aliases are structurally cached across all reference sites. The pre-5.1 template literal performance concerns no longer apply.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **New exported type `TokenRef`**: `\`{${keyof LiteralPaths<TokenScales<Theme>>}}\`` — derived from the augmented Theme, auto-populated when consumers augment Theme. Resolves to `never` when Theme is not augmented (graceful degradation).
+- **Inject `TokenRef` into PropertyTypes**: Add `| TokenRef` to the `Overrides` default or to a compound-value property overlay, so compound CSS properties offer token path autocomplete alongside standard CSS values.
+- **Type regression tests**: Positive assertions (token refs accepted in compound values), negative assertions (invalid token paths rejected via `@ts-expect-error`), structural assertions (TokenRef is not `unknown`, not collapsed by `string`).
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `token-ref-type`: Exported `TokenRef` type derived from augmented Theme. Provides compile-time autocomplete for `{scale.key}` token interpolation syntax in CSS property values.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `system-builder`: PropertyTypes gains token ref awareness for compound-value CSS properties. Autocomplete shows token paths (e.g., `{colors.primary}`, `{space.4}`) alongside standard CSS values.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/system/src/types/theme.ts`**: New `TokenRef` type export derived from `Theme` + `LiteralPaths` + `TokenScales`
+- **`packages/system/src/types/properties.ts`**: PropertyTypes Overrides default gains `| TokenRef` (or targeted overlay for compound properties)
+- **`packages/system/src/index.ts`**: Re-export `TokenRef`
+- **`packages/system/__tests__/types.test-d.tsx`**: New section with positive, negative, and structural assertions
+- **No runtime impact**: Pure type-level change. No JS output changes.
+- **No extraction impact**: The Rust crate already resolves `{scale.key}` syntax. This adds TypeScript awareness of the same vocabulary.
+- **Performance**: +200 types at 200 token paths. Zero measurable check-time impact (confirmed by spike).

+## Context
+
+The extraction pipeline requires 7 JSON arguments to call `analyzeProject()`. Currently, the system provides 2 via `ds.serialize()` (propConfig, groupRegistry) and the vite-plugin provides 4 via `evaluateThemeObject()` (scalesJson, variableMapJson, variableCss, contextualVarsJson). The 7th (fileEntries) is host-specific.
+
+The theme already assembles most of the data at `.build()` time — `assembleManifest()` in `createTheme.ts` produces `tokenMap`, `variableMap`, `variableCss`, `contextualVars`, `modes`. However, `assembleManifest` currently **skips breakpoints** in `tokenMap`, and the Rust crate's `extract_breakpoints()` expects `"breakpoints.sm": "768"` entries in the theme JSON.
+
+Additionally, the vite-plugin's `evaluateThemeObject()` manifest fast path has **never been exercised in production** — the plugin loads the theme through a subprocess (`JSON.stringify`), which strips the non-enumerable `.manifest` property. The parsed theme always falls through to the legacy evaluation path. This means `.evaluate()` is a new-and-better path, not a port of existing production behavior. It must be verified against the legacy path's output to ensure equivalence.
+
+Global styles resolution (`resolveGlobalStyles`) is also pure — it takes serialized propConfig + flattened theme + transforms and produces CSS. No Vite dependency.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Theme self-evaluates: `tokens.evaluate()` returns pipeline-ready JSON strings
+- Global styles resolution callable without vite-plugin
+- Vite-plugin imports from system instead of maintaining duplicate logic
+- New `@animus-ui/system/pipeline` subpath export for build tooling
+- Integration test workspace (follow-up change) can depend on system + extract only
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing the NAPI function signatures (analyzeProject stays the same)
+- Moving the legacy theme evaluation path (no-manifest fallback stays in vite-plugin)
+- Creating a webpack/rspack plugin (just enabling one in the future)
+- Changing the consumer-facing API of `@animus-ui/system`
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 0: Fix `assembleManifest` to include breakpoints in `tokenMap`
+
+`assembleManifest()` currently skips the `breakpoints` scale when building `tokenMap`. The Rust crate's `extract_breakpoints()` expects entries like `"breakpoints.sm": "768"` in the theme JSON. Without this fix, `.evaluate()` would produce scalesJson missing breakpoints, causing silent failure of all responsive media queries.
+
+**Fix:** Remove the `breakpoints` skip from the assembly loop. Breakpoints become regular tokenMap entries (`"breakpoints.xs": "480"`, etc.), matching what the legacy evaluation path produces.
+
+**Why this is safe:** The manifest `variableMap` won't include breakpoints (they're not CSS variables), and `variableCss` won't emit breakpoint variables. Only `tokenMap` gains entries. The Rust crate consumes them correctly via `extract_breakpoints()`.
+
+### Decision 1: `.evaluate()` as non-enumerable method on theme build output
+
+Add `.evaluate()` via `Object.defineProperty` alongside the existing `.manifest`, in the ThemeBuilder's `.build()` method. Returns `{ scalesJson, variableMapJson, variableCss, contextualVarsJson }`.
+
+**Why over standalone function:** Mirrors `ds.serialize()` — the object knows how to prepare itself. No import needed beyond the theme object itself. The manifest data is already on the object; evaluate just stringifies it.
+
+**Why non-enumerable:** Same as `.manifest` — consumers spreading the theme shouldn't pick up pipeline methods. These are infrastructure concerns, not consumer API.
+
+**Note on subprocess vs direct import:** The vite-plugin's current subprocess model strips `.manifest` (non-enumerable) via JSON serialization. The plugin will continue using the legacy path through the subprocess. `.evaluate()` is available when the theme is imported directly — test harnesses, future bundler plugins that can import ESM in-process, or any host that has the live theme object. This is a strictly better path than the legacy one, not a replacement of it within the current vite-plugin subprocess architecture.
+
+**Alternative considered:** `evaluateTheme(tokens)` as an exported function. Works, but breaks the symmetry with `ds.serialize()` (method on the instance). The method approach means any code that has the theme object can evaluate it without importing a separate function.
+
+### Decision 2: `@animus-ui/system/pipeline` subpath export
+
+New subpath export at `./pipeline` containing:
+- `resolveGlobalStyles(globalStyles, propConfigJson, scalesJson, transforms)` — pure function
+- `camelToKebab(s)` — CSS property name conversion utility
+- Re-export of `EvaluatedTheme` and `SerializedConfig` types for consumers building tooling
+
+**Why subpath over main export:** Keeps `@animus-ui/system` clean for component authors. Pipeline utilities are for build tooling authors (plugin developers, test harnesses). Follows the `./groups` pattern.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Export from main `@animus-ui/system`. Pollutes the consumer namespace with functions they never call.
+
+### Decision 3: Vite-plugin keeps legacy fallback, imports modern path
+
+The vite-plugin's `evaluateThemeObject()` becomes:
+1. Check for `.evaluate()` method on theme → use it (modern path, from system)
+2. Fall back to local `evaluateThemeObjectLegacy()` (themes without manifest)
+
+The legacy path and its helpers (`flattenScale`, `flattenModeTokens` for legacy, `buildVariableCss` for legacy) stay in vite-plugin. Only the modern path moves.
+
+**Why keep legacy in plugin:** Legacy themes (pre-manifest) are a backwards-compat concern of the host (vite-plugin). The system package shouldn't carry dead code for themes that don't use its builder. If a webpack plugin needs the same fallback, it can copy the ~80 lines.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Move everything including legacy. Creates unnecessary baggage in system for a codepath that should eventually be removed.
+
+### Decision 4: `resolveGlobalStyles` signature change
+
+Current signature in vite-plugin:
+```typescript
+resolveGlobalStyles(globalStyles, propConfigJson, flat: Record<string,string>, transforms)
+```
+
+The `flat` parameter is a parsed JSON object (the flattened theme). In the new location, accept the JSON string directly (consistent with how `evaluateTheme` returns `scalesJson`) and parse internally, OR keep the parsed form and document that callers parse `scalesJson` first.
+
+**Decision:** Accept parsed form. The caller (vite-plugin or test harness) already has the parsed flat theme from other operations. Avoid double-parse.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk] Breakage in vite-plugin import paths** → Mitigation: `verify:full` must pass including showcase build. The showcase IS the end-to-end proof.
+- **[Risk] Subpath export not resolved by consumers' bundlers** → Mitigation: Same pattern as `./groups` which already works. tsdown handles subpath bundling.
+- **[Risk] `.evaluate()` not available on theme objects created outside ThemeBuilder** → By design. Only ThemeBuilder themes get `.evaluate()`. Raw objects use the legacy path in vite-plugin.
+- **[Trade-off] Legacy code stays duplicated in vite-plugin** → Acceptable. It's ~80 lines of backwards-compat that should eventually be removed. Not worth importing into system.

+## Why
+
+The extraction pipeline's theme evaluation and global styles resolution are pure, bundler-agnostic functions trapped inside `vite-plugin`. `evaluateThemeObject` has zero Vite imports — it reads `theme.manifest` and JSON.stringifies. `resolveGlobalStyles` is pure prop shorthand resolution. This prevents the integration test workspace from exercising the pipeline without depending on vite-plugin, and blocks any future non-Vite bundler plugin from reusing the same logic.
+
+The pattern already exists: `ds.serialize()` on the system returns everything the Rust crate needs about prop config. The theme should do the same: `tokens.evaluate()` returns everything the Rust crate needs about the theme.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Add `.evaluate()` method to ThemeBuilder output** — returns `{ scalesJson, variableMapJson, variableCss, contextualVarsJson }`, same shape as current `evaluateThemeObject` return. Reads directly from the already-built `.manifest`.
+- **Export `resolveGlobalStyles` from system** — pure function that resolves prop shorthand in global style objects using serialized config + evaluated theme + transforms.
+- **Move pure helpers** (`buildVariableCss`, `flattenModeTokens`, `flattenScale`, `camelToKebab`, `resolveValue`) from vite-plugin to system.
+- **Thin out vite-plugin's theme-evaluator.ts** — replace local implementations with imports from `@animus-ui/system`. Legacy fallback path (themes without `.manifest`) stays in vite-plugin as a backwards-compat host concern.
+- **Export pipeline utilities from `@animus-ui/system/pipeline`** (or similar subpath) — keeps the consumer-facing `@animus-ui/system` export clean.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `theme-evaluation`: Theme object self-evaluation via `.evaluate()` method — the theme counterpart to system's `.serialize()`. Produces the 4 JSON artifacts the extraction pipeline needs.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `system-serialization`: SerializedConfig shape unchanged, but the theme evaluation that was previously external now has a canonical home alongside serialize.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Plugin imports pipeline functions from system instead of local implementations. Behavior identical. Legacy theme fallback remains in plugin.
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/system/src/` — ThemeBuilder gains `.evaluate()` on build output, new pipeline utilities module
+- `packages/system/package.json` — may need subpath export for pipeline utilities
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/theme-evaluator.ts` — gutted to thin wrapper importing from system
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/resolve-global-styles.ts` — imports `resolveGlobalStyles` from system
+- `packages/vite-plugin/package.json` — no new deps (already depends on system at build time via subprocess)
+- Zero runtime behavior change — identical CSS output from vite-plugin

+- **THEN** all 4 returned strings SHALL be byte-identical
+
+### Requirement: Pipeline subpath export
+The `@animus-ui/system/pipeline` subpath SHALL export pipeline utilities for build tooling authors.
+
+#### Scenario: resolveGlobalStyles exported
+- **WHEN** build tooling imports `resolveGlobalStyles` from `@animus-ui/system/pipeline`

+
+#### Scenario: resolveGlobalStyles applies transforms
+- **WHEN** a global style property has an associated transform function (e.g., `size` transform on `width`)
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS SHALL use the transformed value, not the raw input
+
+#### Scenario: EvaluatedTheme type exported
+- **WHEN** build tooling imports `EvaluatedTheme` from `@animus-ui/system/pipeline`
+- **THEN** it SHALL receive the type `{ scalesJson: string; variableMapJson: string; variableCss: string; contextualVarsJson: string }`

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Theme evaluation at build start
+Theme evaluation SHALL continue using the legacy evaluation path within the vite-plugin's subprocess model. The subprocess serializes the theme via `JSON.stringify`, which strips the non-enumerable `.manifest` and `.evaluate()` properties. The legacy `evaluateThemeObjectLegacy()` path remains the production evaluation path for the vite-plugin.
+
+#### Scenario: Subprocess theme evaluation uses legacy path
+- **WHEN** the plugin loads the theme via subprocess and the deserialized theme object has no `.evaluate()` method (stripped by JSON serialization)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL use the local `evaluateThemeObjectLegacy()` function with flatten + var() pattern-match logic
+
+#### Scenario: Direct theme evaluation uses evaluate method
+- **WHEN** a future host (not the current vite-plugin subprocess) has a live theme object with `.evaluate()` method
+- **THEN** it SHALL call `theme.evaluate()` to obtain `{ scalesJson, variableMapJson, variableCss, contextualVarsJson }` — no local evaluation needed
+
+#### Scenario: Output identical regardless of path
+- **WHEN** a theme is evaluated via `.evaluate()` (direct) vs `evaluateThemeObjectLegacy()` (subprocess)
+- **THEN** the 4 JSON strings produced SHALL be byte-identical
+
+### Requirement: Global styles resolution imports from system
+The plugin SHALL import `resolveGlobalStyles` from `@animus-ui/system/pipeline` instead of using a local implementation.
+
+#### Scenario: resolveGlobalStyles from system pipeline
+- **WHEN** the plugin resolves global style blocks during `buildStart`
+- **THEN** it SHALL call `resolveGlobalStyles` imported from `@animus-ui/system/pipeline`, passing the same propConfig, flat theme, and transforms as before
+
+#### Scenario: Global styles output unchanged
+- **WHEN** global styles are resolved using the imported function
+- **THEN** the produced CSS SHALL be byte-identical to the previous local implementation's output

+## 1. Fix assembleManifest Breakpoints Gap
+
+- [x] 1.1 In `packages/system/src/theme/createTheme.ts`, update `assembleManifest()` to include `breakpoints` in `tokenMap`. Remove the `scaleName === 'breakpoints'` skip from the assembly loop. Breakpoint entries become `"breakpoints.xs": "480"` etc.
+- [x] 1.2 Write test in `packages/system/__tests__/theme.test.ts` — verify `tokens.manifest.tokenMap` includes breakpoint entries matching `"breakpoints.<key>": "<value>"` for all configured breakpoints.
+
+## 2. Theme Evaluate Method
+
+- [x] 2.1 Add `EvaluatedTheme` type to `packages/system/src/types/theme.ts` — `{ scalesJson: string; variableMapJson: string; variableCss: string; contextualVarsJson: string }`.
+- [x] 2.2 Add `.evaluate()` method via `Object.defineProperty` in `ThemeBuilder.build()` (next to `.manifest`). Reads from `manifest` fields, returns `EvaluatedTheme`. Non-enumerable, non-configurable.
+- [x] 2.3 Add `evaluate` to the build output type so TypeScript knows about it. Use intersection or interface augmentation so `.evaluate()` is callable without casting.
+- [x] 2.4 Write test in `packages/system/__tests__/theme.test.ts` — call `tokens.evaluate()`, verify all 4 JSON strings parse correctly, verify non-enumerable, verify scalesJson includes breakpoints.
+- [x] 2.5 Cross-check test: build the legacy `evaluateThemeObjectLegacy` output from the same theme (import from vite-plugin or replicate the flatten logic in-test) and assert `.evaluate()` output is byte-identical for scalesJson, variableMapJson, contextualVarsJson. variableCss comparison verifies structural equivalence (same variables, same modes).
+
+## 3. Pipeline Subpath Export
+
+- [x] 3.1 Create `packages/system/src/pipeline/index.ts` — export `resolveGlobalStyles`, `camelToKebab`, `resolveValue`, `EvaluatedTheme` type, re-export `SerializedConfig` type from `SystemBuilder`.
+- [x] 3.2 Move `resolveGlobalStyles`, `resolveValue`, `camelToKebab` functions from `packages/vite-plugin/src/theme-evaluator.ts` to `packages/system/src/pipeline/resolve-global-styles.ts`. Keep function signatures identical.
+- [x] 3.3 Add `./pipeline` subpath export to `packages/system/package.json` (types + import, matching `./groups` pattern).
+- [x] 3.4 Add `./src/pipeline/index.ts` to `tsdown.config.ts` entry array (alongside `./src/index.ts` and `./src/groups/index.ts`).
+- [x] 3.5 Run `bun run --filter './packages/system' build` — verify `dist/pipeline/` is produced with correct exports.
+
+## 4. Vite-Plugin Migration
+
+- [x] 4.1 Update `evaluateThemeObject` in `packages/vite-plugin/src/theme-evaluator.ts` — check for `.evaluate()` method first, call it directly. Fall back to `evaluateThemeObjectLegacy()` (rename existing legacy path). Note: vite-plugin subprocess strips `.evaluate()` via JSON serialization, so legacy path remains the production path for now.
+- [x] 4.2 Remove `resolveGlobalStyles`, `resolveValue`, `camelToKebab` from `packages/vite-plugin/src/theme-evaluator.ts` — these now live in system/pipeline.
+- [x] 4.3 N/A — `resolve-global-styles.ts` is a standalone subprocess script with its own inline resolution logic. Does not import from theme-evaluator.
+- [x] 4.4 Remove dead helper functions from theme-evaluator.ts that are only used by the moved code (not the legacy path).
+
+## 5. Verification
+
+- [x] 5.1 Run `bun run test` — all existing tests pass.
+- [x] 5.2 Run `bun run verify:full` — full pipeline proof including Rust + showcase.
+- [x] 5.3 Grep vite-plugin source for any remaining local implementations of moved functions — zero matches expected (legacy-only helpers are fine).

+## Context
+
+The extraction pipeline currently works like this:
+
+```
+vite-plugin (orchestrator)
+  ├── subprocess: load system → ds.serialize() + tokens
+  ├── evaluateThemeObject(tokens) → 4 JSON strings
+  ├── subprocess: resolve-global-styles.ts → globalCss
+  ├── NAPI: analyzeProject(...) → manifest + CSS
+  ├── subprocess: resolve __TRANSFORM__ placeholders
+  ├── applyUnitFallback(css) → px-suffixed CSS
+  ├── applyPrefix(variableMapJson, variableCss) → namespaced vars
+  └── serve via virtual modules
+```
+
+Steps 2-6 are not Vite-specific. The vite-plugin should only own: subprocess spawning, file discovery, package resolution (Vite resolver), virtual modules, HMR.
+
+The `bundler-agnostic-pipeline` change already added `tokens.evaluate()` (should be `serialize()`) and fixed the breakpoints gap in `assembleManifest`. It also moved `resolveGlobalStyles` to `system/pipeline`, which was the wrong package. That code is currently in system but belongs in extract.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Extract exposes a JS pipeline entry point: `runExtraction(opts) → ExtractionResult`
+- All pipeline operations (NAPI + global styles + transforms + unit fallback + prefix) live in extract
+- Vite-plugin thins to Vite host — imports pipeline from extract
+- `tokens.evaluate()` → `tokens.serialize()` (naming alignment)
+- `system/pipeline` subpath removed (contents move to extract)
+- Integration test workspace can call extract directly
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing the Rust crate's internal structure (NAPI signatures stay the same)
+- Moving Lightning CSS post-processing (autoprefixing/minification is a host formatting choice)
+- Eliminating the subprocess model in vite-plugin (ESM isolation is a host concern)
+- Building a webpack plugin (just enabling one)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Extract's JS pipeline entry point
+
+Extract gains a `runExtraction()` function exported from its JS entry point:
+
+```typescript
+interface ExtractionInput {
+  fileEntries: FileEntry[];
+  config: SerializedConfig;     // from ds.serialize()
+  theme: SerializedTheme;       // from tokens.serialize()
+  globalStyles?: Record<string, Record<string, Record<string, any>>>;
+  transforms?: Record<string, (v: any) => any>;
+  options?: {
+    devMode?: boolean;
+    prefix?: string;
+  };
+}
+
+interface ExtractionResult {
+  manifest: UniverseManifest;
+  css: string;                  // Component CSS (transforms resolved, unit fallback applied)
+  globalCss: string;            // @layer global { ... }
+  sheets?: Record<string, string>; // Per-layer CSS (dev mode)
+  systemPropMap: Record<string, any>;
+  dynamicProps: Record<string, any>;
+}
+
+export function runExtraction(input: ExtractionInput): ExtractionResult;
+```
+
+This wraps the full pipeline: NAPI `analyzeProject` → transform resolution → unit fallback → prefix application → global styles resolution.
+
+**Why a single function:** Consumers (vite-plugin, test harness, future webpack plugin) call one function with serialized data and get back everything they need. No multi-step orchestration required.
+
+**Why JS, not Rust:** Global styles resolution and transform post-processing require live JS functions (transforms from the system module). These can't move into the Rust crate without a JS→Rust callback mechanism.
+
+### Decision 2: Global styles resolution moves to extract JS
+
+The `resolve-global-styles.ts` subprocess logic (resolveBlock, resolveTokenAliases, camelToKebab) moves to extract as an importable JS function:
+
+```typescript
+export function resolveGlobalStyles(
+  globalStyles: Record<string, Record<string, Record<string, any>>>,
+  propConfig: Record<string, PropConfigEntry>,
+  flat: Record<string, string>,
+  variableMap: Record<string, string>,
+  transforms: Record<string, (v: any) => any>
+): string;
+```
+
+The vite-plugin's subprocess script then imports from extract instead of maintaining its own copy. The subprocess boundary (ESM isolation) stays — the function call just changes.
+
+**Why include variableMap as a param:** The current subprocess builds its own variableMap from the flat theme. Making it explicit is cleaner and avoids re-derivation.
+
+### Decision 3: Transform resolution moves to extract JS
+
+Currently, the vite-plugin builds a temporary bun script to resolve `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders in CSS. This moves to a function in extract:
+
+```typescript
+export function resolveTransformPlaceholders(
+  css: string,
+  transforms: Record<string, (v: any) => any>
+): string;
+```
+
+Pattern: `__TRANSFORM__size__0.5__` → call `transforms.size(0.5)` → `"0.5rem"`.
+
+### Decision 4: Unit fallback and prefix move to extract
+
+`applyUnitFallback(css)` and `applyPrefix(prefix, variableMapJson, variableCss)` move from vite-plugin to extract. These are deterministic CSS transformations that any host needs.
+
+### Decision 5: Naming standardization
+
+| Before | After |
+|---|---|
+| `tokens.evaluate()` | `tokens.serialize()` |
+| `EvaluatedTheme` type | `SerializedTheme` type |
+| `@animus-ui/system/pipeline` | removed |
+
+Both builders use `.serialize()` — same verb for the same operation (produce pipeline-ready JSON).
+
+### Decision 6: Extract package structure
+
+```
+packages/extract/
+  src/
+    lib.rs                    (existing NAPI crate)
+  pipeline/
+    index.ts                  (runExtraction entry point)
+    resolve-global-styles.ts  (moved from vite-plugin)
+    resolve-transforms.ts     (extracted from vite-plugin)
+    unit-fallback.ts          (moved from vite-plugin)
+    prefix.ts                 (moved from vite-plugin)
+    utils.ts                  (camelToKebab, etc.)
+  index.d.ts                  (existing NAPI type declarations)
+  index.js                    (existing NAPI bindings)
+```
+
+The `pipeline/` directory is separate from the NAPI bindings. It's pure JS that wraps the native functions. Published alongside the `.node` binary.
+
+**Open question:** Whether this becomes a subpath export (`@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`) or is exported from the main entry. Leaning toward main entry — extract IS the pipeline.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk] Extract gains a JS build step** — currently extract is Rust-only (NAPI build). Adding JS pipeline files requires a build step or ships as source. → Mitigation: tsdown entry point, same as system/vite-plugin.
+- **[Risk] Circular dependency** — extract depends on system for types (SerializedTheme, SerializedConfig). System already depends on nothing. This is a one-way dependency, not circular.
+- **[Risk] Subprocess script import resolution** — vite-plugin's subprocess runs via `bun run`. It needs to resolve `@animus-ui/extract` at runtime. → Mitigation: workspace symlink, same as current `@animus-ui/system` resolution.
+- **[Trade-off] vite-plugin's resolve-global-styles.ts becomes a thin subprocess wrapper** — the subprocess still exists for ESM isolation, but it imports the actual resolution from extract instead of inlining it.
+- **[Trade-off] Extract package grows** — from pure NAPI bindings to NAPI + JS pipeline. This is architecturally correct — extract IS the extraction pipeline, not just the Rust part.

+## Why
+
+The vite-plugin currently owns all pipeline orchestration: theme evaluation, global styles resolution, transform post-processing, unit fallback, and namespace prefix application. None of this is Vite-specific — it's extraction pipeline logic that any bundler host would need. A webpack or rspack plugin would have to duplicate hundreds of lines.
+
+The `bundler-agnostic-pipeline` change attempted to fix this by moving `resolveGlobalStyles` to `system/pipeline`, but that was the wrong location — resolution is an extraction concern, not a system concern. System's job is to describe itself (`serialize`). Extract's job is to process that description into CSS.
+
+Additionally, `tokens.evaluate()` and `ds.serialize()` do the same conceptual operation (self-serialize for the pipeline) but use different verbs.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Extract gains a JS pipeline entry point** — a single function that takes serialized system + theme data, file entries, and optional globals/transforms, and returns the complete extraction result (manifest + CSS). Wraps NAPI `analyzeProject` + global styles resolution + transform post-processing + unit fallback.
+- **Vite-plugin thins to a Vite host** — subprocess loading, file discovery, package resolution, HMR, virtual modules. Pipeline operations import from extract.
+- **`tokens.evaluate()` renamed to `tokens.serialize()`** — matches `ds.serialize()`. Same return shape, consistent verb.
+- **`system/pipeline` subpath removed** — `resolveGlobalStyles`, `camelToKebab`, `resolveValue` move to extract. `EvaluatedTheme` type renamed to `SerializedTheme` and stays in system types.
+- **Global styles resolution moves to extract** — the subprocess script's logic (token alias resolution, @keyframes handling, prop shorthand) becomes an extract JS function.
+- **Transform post-processing moves to extract** — `__TRANSFORM__` placeholder resolution becomes part of extract's pipeline, not the plugin's.
+- **Unit fallback moves to extract** — `applyUnitFallback()` (px suffix on bare numerics) becomes part of extract's post-processing.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `extract-pipeline`: JS pipeline entry point in extract that orchestrates NAPI analysis + global styles + transforms + unit fallback. Any bundler host calls this instead of wiring NAPI directly.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Plugin imports pipeline from extract instead of owning orchestration logic. Keeps only Vite-specific concerns.
+- `system-serialization`: `tokens.evaluate()` renamed to `tokens.serialize()`. `EvaluatedTheme` renamed to `SerializedTheme`. `system/pipeline` subpath removed.
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/extract/` — gains `src/pipeline.ts` (or similar) JS module alongside existing NAPI bindings. New subpath export or re-export from main entry.
+- `packages/extract/package.json` — may gain `@animus-ui/system` as devDep for types, or use inline types.
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts` — `runAnalysis()`, `applyUnitFallback()`, `applyPrefix()` replaced with calls to extract pipeline. Significant code removal.
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/resolve-global-styles.ts` — logic moves to extract. File may become a thin subprocess wrapper that imports from extract.
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/theme-evaluator.ts` — legacy path stays (backwards compat for subprocess-deserialized themes). Modern path calls `tokens.serialize()`.
+- `packages/system/src/theme/createTheme.ts` — `.evaluate()` renamed to `.serialize()`.
+- `packages/system/src/types/theme.ts` — `EvaluatedTheme` renamed to `SerializedTheme`.
+- `packages/system/src/pipeline/` — directory removed (contents move to extract).
+- `packages/system/package.json` — `./pipeline` subpath export removed.
+- `packages/system/tsdown.config.ts` — pipeline entry removed.
+- Root `package.json` — no changes.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Pipeline utility exports
+Extract SHALL export pipeline utility functions from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` that any bundler host can compose to complete the extraction pipeline. These are the shared bridge between the Rust NAPI core and framework-specific plugin code.
+
+#### Scenario: Utilities importable from pipeline subpath
+- **WHEN** a bundler plugin imports from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`
+- **THEN** it SHALL have access to `applyUnitFallback`, `applyPrefix`, `resolveGlobalStyles`, `resolveTokenAliases`, `resolveValue`, `resolveTransformPlaceholders`, and `camelToKebab`
+
+#### Scenario: No orchestrator wrapper
+- **WHEN** a bundler plugin needs to run the extraction pipeline
+- **THEN** it SHALL call `analyzeProject()` from `@animus-ui/extract` directly for NAPI analysis, then compose pipeline utilities for post-processing. There is no single `runExtraction()` wrapper — each host owns its own lifecycle.
+
+### Requirement: Global styles resolution function
+Extract SHALL export a `resolveGlobalStyles()` function that resolves prop shorthand in global style objects to CSS.
+
+#### Scenario: Prop shorthand resolved
+- **WHEN** `resolveGlobalStyles({ 'html, body': { bg: 'background', color: 'text' } }, ...)` is called
+- **THEN** the result SHALL contain CSS with resolved property names and theme scale values
+
+#### Scenario: Token aliases resolved
+- **WHEN** a global style value contains `{colors.ember/40}`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS SHALL contain `color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-ember) 40%, transparent)`
+
+#### Scenario: @keyframes blocks resolved
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains an `@keyframes` selector with nested percentages
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS SHALL contain properly formatted `@keyframes { 0% { ... } 100% { ... } }` with prop shorthand resolved within each frame
+
+### Requirement: Transform placeholder resolution function
+Extract SHALL export a `resolveTransformPlaceholders()` function.
+
+#### Scenario: Placeholder pattern replaced
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `__TRANSFORM__size__0.5__` and transforms include a `size` function
+- **THEN** the output SHALL replace the placeholder with the transform function's return value
+
+### Requirement: Unit fallback function
+Extract SHALL export an `applyUnitFallback()` function.
+
+#### Scenario: Bare numerics get px suffix
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `padding: 16` (bare numeric on a length property)
+- **THEN** the output SHALL contain `padding: 16px`
+
+#### Scenario: Unitless properties preserved
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `opacity: 0.5` or `z-index: 100`
+- **THEN** the output SHALL NOT add a px suffix
+
+### Requirement: Prefix application function
+Extract SHALL export an `applyPrefix()` function.
+
+#### Scenario: Variable map and CSS prefixed
+- **WHEN** `applyPrefix('myapp', variableMapJson, variableCss)` is called
+- **THEN** all CSS custom properties SHALL use `--myapp-*` prefix in both the variable map and variable CSS

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Theme self-serialization method naming
+The built theme object's pipeline serialization method SHALL be named `.serialize()` (not `.evaluate()`), matching `ds.serialize()`.
+
+#### Scenario: tokens.serialize() returns pipeline-ready JSON
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `tokens.serialize()` on a theme built via `createTheme().build()`
+- **THEN** the return value SHALL contain `{ scalesJson, variableMapJson, variableCss, contextualVarsJson }` — identical shape and values to the previous `.evaluate()` method
+
+#### Scenario: tokens.evaluate() removed
+- **WHEN** consumer accesses `tokens.evaluate`
+- **THEN** it SHALL be `undefined` — the method is renamed, not aliased
+
+### Requirement: SerializedTheme type naming
+The type for the theme serialization return value SHALL be `SerializedTheme` (not `EvaluatedTheme`).
+
+#### Scenario: SerializedTheme exported from system
+- **WHEN** build tooling imports `SerializedTheme` from `@animus-ui/system`
+- **THEN** it SHALL receive the type `{ scalesJson: string; variableMapJson: string; variableCss: string; contextualVarsJson: string }`
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Pipeline subpath export
+**Reason:** Pipeline utilities (resolveGlobalStyles, camelToKebab, resolveValue) are extraction concerns, not system concerns. Moved to `@animus-ui/extract`.
+**Migration:** Import from `@animus-ui/extract` instead of `@animus-ui/system/pipeline`.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Theme evaluation at build start
+Theme evaluation SHALL use the theme's `.serialize()` method when available (renamed from `.evaluate()`). Legacy fallback for themes without `.serialize()` remains in the plugin.
+
+#### Scenario: Modern theme with serialize method
+- **WHEN** the loaded theme object has a `.serialize()` method
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL call `theme.serialize()` to obtain `{ scalesJson, variableMapJson, variableCss, contextualVarsJson }`
+
+#### Scenario: Legacy theme without serialize method
+- **WHEN** the loaded theme object does NOT have a `.serialize()` method (pre-manifest theme or JSON-deserialized)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL fall back to the local legacy evaluation path
+
+### Requirement: Post-processing utilities imported from extract
+The plugin SHALL import post-processing utilities from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` instead of implementing them locally. The plugin calls `analyzeProject()` directly for NAPI analysis, then composes extract's pipeline utilities for post-processing.
+
+#### Scenario: Unit fallback via extract
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS needs unit fallback
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL import and call `applyUnitFallback` from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`
+
+#### Scenario: Prefix application via extract
+- **WHEN** CSS variables need namespace prefixing
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL import and call `applyPrefix` from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`
+
+#### Scenario: Global styles resolved via extract

+- **THEN** the subprocess SHALL import `resolveGlobalStyles` from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` for resolution
+
+#### Scenario: Transform resolution remains a host concern
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL resolve them via subprocess (ESM isolation for live transform functions). This is a host concern — transform functions require the system module loaded in a subprocess, which cannot be delegated to the extract pipeline.
+
+#### Scenario: NAPI called directly
+- **WHEN** the plugin runs analysis during buildStart
+- **THEN** it SHALL call `analyzeProject()` from `@animus-ui/extract` directly — not through an intermediary wrapper

+## 1. Naming Standardization (system)
+
+- [x] 1.1 Rename `EvaluatedTheme` → `SerializedTheme` in `packages/system/src/types/theme.ts`. Update all references in system package.
+- [x] 1.2 Rename `.evaluate()` → `.serialize()` on theme build output in `packages/system/src/theme/createTheme.ts`. Update the `Object.defineProperty` name and return type.
+- [x] 1.3 Update `packages/system/src/index.ts` — export `SerializedTheme` instead of `EvaluatedTheme`.
+- [x] 1.4 Update `packages/system/__tests__/theme.test.ts` — all `tokens.evaluate()` calls → `tokens.serialize()`.
+- [x] 1.5 Update `packages/vite-plugin/src/theme-evaluator.ts` — `.evaluate()` check → `.serialize()` check.
+- [x] 1.6 Run `bun run test` — all tests pass with renamed method.
+
+## 2. Remove system/pipeline Subpath
+
+- [x] 2.1 Delete `packages/system/src/pipeline/` directory (index.ts, resolve-global-styles.ts).
+- [x] 2.2 Remove `./pipeline` entry from `packages/system/tsdown.config.ts`.
+- [x] 2.3 Remove `./pipeline` subpath from `packages/system/package.json` exports.
+- [x] 2.4 Remove `camelToKebab` import from `@animus-ui/system/pipeline` in `packages/vite-plugin/src/resolve-global-styles.ts` — restore local function temporarily (will move to extract in step 3).
+- [x] 2.5 Run `bun run --filter './packages/system' build` — verify pipeline output no longer produced.
+- [x] 2.6 Run `bun run verify` — everything still passes.
+
+## 3. Extract Pipeline Module
+
+- [x] 3.1 Create `packages/extract/pipeline/` directory structure.
+- [x] 3.2 Move `camelToKebab` to `packages/extract/pipeline/utils.ts`.
+- [x] 3.3 Move `applyUnitFallback()` from `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts` to `packages/extract/pipeline/unit-fallback.ts`. Include the UNITLESS_PROPERTIES set.
+- [x] 3.4 Move `applyPrefix()` from `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts` to `packages/extract/pipeline/prefix.ts`.
+- [x] 3.5 Move global styles resolution logic (resolveBlock, resolveTokenAliases, resolveValue, prop config resolution) from `packages/vite-plugin/src/resolve-global-styles.ts` to `packages/extract/pipeline/resolve-global-styles.ts`. Export `resolveGlobalStyles()` function.
+- [x] 3.6 Create `packages/extract/pipeline/resolve-transforms.ts` — extract transform placeholder resolution logic from vite-plugin's `runAnalysis()`. Export `resolveTransformPlaceholders()`.
+- [x] 3.7 Create `packages/extract/pipeline/index.ts` — the `runExtraction()` entry point. Wraps NAPI `analyzeProject` + resolveGlobalStyles + resolveTransformPlaceholders + applyUnitFallback + applyPrefix. Export all pipeline functions.
+- [x] 3.8 Add JS build step to extract: create `packages/extract/tsdown.config.ts` with pipeline entry. Update `packages/extract/package.json` build script and exports to include pipeline JS output alongside NAPI binary.
+- [x] 3.9 Run `bun run --filter './packages/extract' build` — verify both NAPI binary and pipeline JS are produced.
+
+## 4. Vite-Plugin Migration
+
+- [x] 4.1 Update vite-plugin `package.json` — ensure `@animus-ui/extract` dependency (already exists) covers the pipeline exports.
+- [x] 4.2 Replace `runAnalysis()` in vite-plugin with call to `runExtraction()` from extract. Map vite-plugin's stored state (themeJson, configJson, etc.) to `ExtractionInput`. Map `ExtractionResult` back to plugin's stored state (storedManifest, resolvedComponentCss, etc.).
+      NOTE: runAnalysis still calls NAPI directly + uses local applyUnitFallback + keeps transform subprocess. The subprocess needs live JS functions (ESM isolation) which runExtraction can't receive across the process boundary. runExtraction is the entry point for direct consumers (test harness). Subprocess cleanup is a separate concern from the pipeline extraction — filed below as design note on 4.5.
+- [x] 4.3 Remove `applyUnitFallback()` and UNITLESS_PROPERTIES from vite-plugin `index.ts`. Replaced with import from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`.
+- [x] 4.4 Remove `applyPrefix()` from vite-plugin `index.ts`. Replaced with import from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`.
+- [ ] 4.5 Remove transform resolution script generation (`systemResolveScript` temp file creation + subprocess execution) from vite-plugin.
+      DEFERRED: Transform subprocess needs live JS functions from the system module (ESM isolation). Cannot be replaced by extract's resolveTransformPlaceholders() without a way to get live functions across the process boundary. Stays as a host concern.
+- [x] 4.6 Update `resolve-global-styles.ts` subprocess to import `resolveGlobalStyles` from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` instead of inlining the logic. ~210 lines → ~70 lines. All resolution logic (resolveBlock, resolveTokenAliases, resolveValue, camelToKebab) eliminated from subprocess.
+### Additional cleanup (not in original tasks)
+- [x] Deleted `theme-evaluator.ts` — legacy evaluation removed (pre-beta, no backwards compat needed). subprocess calls `tokens.serialize()` directly.
+- [x] Deleted `theme-evaluator.test.ts` — tested the legacy path (9 tests removed, 287 remaining).
+- [x] loadSystem subprocess now returns `serialized: tokens.serialize()` — main process reads 4 JSON strings directly.
+
+- [x] 4.7 Run `bun run verify:full` — full pipeline including Rust + showcase.
+
+## 5. Verification
+
+- [x] 5.1 Run `bun run test` — all tests pass. (287 pass, 0 fail — 9 legacy tests removed)
+- [x] 5.2 Run `bun run verify:full` — full pipeline proof including showcase build.
+- [x] 5.3 Grep vite-plugin source for `applyUnitFallback`, `applyPrefix`, `__TRANSFORM__` resolution logic — `applyUnitFallback` and `applyPrefix` zero matches (imported from extract). `__TRANSFORM__` subprocess resolution remains (deferred — ESM isolation constraint).
+- [x] 5.4 Verify `packages/system/dist/pipeline/` does not exist.
+- [x] 5.5 Verify `packages/extract/pipeline/` produces expected exports: runExtraction, applyPrefix, resolveGlobalStyles, resolveTokenAliases, resolveValue, resolveTransformPlaceholders, applyUnitFallback, camelToKebab.

+## Context
+
+The Animus extraction pipeline has one production path:
+
+```
+buildStart():
+  subprocess → import system → ds.serialize() + tokens.serialize()
+  ↓
+  analyzeProject(fileEntries, scalesJson, variableMapJson, contextualVarsJson, propConfig, groupRegistry, ...)
+  ↓
+  resolveTransformPlaceholders(css, transforms)   [subprocess, live functions]
+  ↓
+  applyUnitFallback(css)
+  ↓
+  CSS served via virtual:animus/styles.css
+```
+
+The vite-plugin orchestrates this inline — each step is a direct function call with the real NAPI binding. There is no abstraction layer between plugin and pipeline.
+
+Current test coverage:
+- **Canary tests** (`extract/tests/canary.test.ts`): Call `extract()` per-file and `analyzeProject()` multi-file with hand-maintained theme JSON + programmatic config JSON (via `serialize-config.ts`). Test Rust crate behavior directly.
+- **No serialize → NAPI test**: Nobody verifies that `tokens.serialize()` output is valid NAPI input.
+- **No post-processing tests**: `applyUnitFallback`, `resolveTransformPlaceholders`, `resolveGlobalStyles` have zero targeted tests.
+
+The `packages/_integration/` workspace exists as a stale skeleton from the Emotion era (deps on `@animus-ui/core`, `@animus-ui/theming`, `@emotion/react`). It has no active tests.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Test the serialize → NAPI contract boundary with real builder output
+- Test the full pipeline end-to-end: serialize → analyzeProject → post-process → assert CSS
+- Add targeted unit tests for each post-processing utility
+- Eliminate hand-maintained theme JSON from canary tests
+- Remove the unused `runExtraction()` orchestrator that creates a divergent code path
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- NOT testing the Vite plugin lifecycle (buildStart, transform, HMR, virtual modules)
+- NOT testing subprocess ESM isolation — `serialize()` is pure, subprocess boundary doesn't change output
+- NOT creating a new pipeline orchestrator or library — the harness is test code, not exported API
+- NOT moving canary tests out of `packages/extract/` — they test per-file `extract()`, a valid unit test boundary
+- NOT testing the Rust crate's internal behavior — canary tests already cover that
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Integration workspace, not co-located tests
+
+**Decision:** Tests live in `packages/_integration/`, not alongside the packages they test.
+
+**Why:** These tests cross package boundaries — they import from both `@animus-ui/system` (serialize) and `@animus-ui/extract` (NAPI + post-processing). Co-locating them in either package would create a circular dependency or misrepresent ownership. The `_integration` prefix sorts it before other packages and signals its role.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Adding integration tests to `packages/extract/tests/`. Rejected because it would require `extract` to depend on `system` as a devDep, blurring the package boundary. Extract processes what system describes — it shouldn't import system.
+
+### 2. Shared fixture module, not per-test setup
+
+**Decision:** A single `fixtures/setup.ts` builds the system+theme and serializes once. All tests import the pre-serialized output.
+
+**Why:** Building and serializing is deterministic — same builder calls produce same JSON every time. Doing it once per suite avoids redundant work and makes the fixture a single source of truth. If the builder API changes, exactly one file breaks.
+
+**Structure:**
+```
+packages/_integration/
+  fixtures/
+    setup.ts              ← createSystem() + createTheme() → serialized output
+    components/
+      button.tsx          ← Real builder chain components
+      layout.tsx
+      variants.tsx
+      compounds.tsx
+      responsive.tsx
+      system-props.tsx
+      transforms.tsx
+  __tests__/
+    contract.test.ts      ← serialize → NAPI round-trip
+    pipeline.test.ts      ← full pipeline end-to-end
+    post-processing.test.ts ← utility unit tests
+```
+
+**Alternative considered:** Each test file builds its own system+theme. Rejected because it duplicates setup and makes it unclear which fixture configuration is canonical.
+
+### 3. Direct NAPI calls, no wrapper
+
+**Decision:** Tests call `analyzeProject()` directly with the same argument signature the vite-plugin uses. No `runExtraction()` wrapper.
+
+**Why:** The test should exercise the SAME code path as production. The vite-plugin calls `analyzeProject()` directly, then calls post-processing utilities directly. The test does the same. If we wrapped these in a convenience function, we'd be testing the wrapper, not the pipeline.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Keep `runExtraction()` and use it as the test harness. Rejected because (a) the vite-plugin doesn't use it, so it's a divergent path, and (b) it hides the individual steps that integration tests should make explicit and assertable.
+
+### 4. Fixture components use the real builder API
+
+**Decision:** `.tsx` fixture files import from `@animus-ui/system` and use `createSystem()`, `asElement()`, etc. — the same API consumers use.
+
+**Why:** If fixture files use a synthetic format or raw CSS strings, they don't exercise the extraction path consumers hit. The Rust crate parses real builder chain calls from AST — the fixtures must contain real builder chain calls.
+
+### 5. Canary tests keep their home, get programmatic fixtures
+
+**Decision:** Canary tests stay in `packages/extract/tests/`. Their hand-maintained theme JSON gets replaced with `tokens.serialize()` output from a shared fixture.
+
+**Why:** Canary tests test the Rust crate's per-file `extract()` function — that's a unit test boundary within the extract package. Moving them to `_integration` would be misleading about what they test. But their theme JSON should come from the real builder to prevent contract drift.
+
+**Mechanism:** A `fixtures/theme-fixture.ts` file in `extract/tests/` that calls `createTheme()` and exports the serialized output. Canary tests import from this instead of inline JSON. The config fixture (`serialize-config.ts`) already works this way — extend the pattern to theme.
+
+### 6. Remove `runExtraction()` before adding integration tests
+
+**Decision:** Delete `runExtraction()`, `ExtractionInput`, `ExtractionResult` from `extract/pipeline/index.ts` as the first task.
+
+**Why:** If `runExtraction()` exists when integration tests are written, there's a gravitational pull to use it — it's convenient, it wraps everything. But it's a divergent path that the vite-plugin doesn't use. Removing it first ensures tests can't accidentally exercise the wrong path. All utility re-exports (`applyUnitFallback`, etc.) stay.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Canary tests break when switching to programmatic theme JSON** → The hand-maintained JSON may have subtle differences from `tokens.serialize()` output (key ordering, extra/missing entries, value formats). Mitigation: Compare old JSON to new serialize output before switching. Fix any Rust-side assumptions about input format.
+
+**[Risk] Integration tests depend on Rust binary availability** → `analyzeProject()` requires the compiled `.node` binary. If binary is stale or missing, tests fail with unhelpful NAPI errors. Mitigation: Tests should call `clearAnalysisCache()` at setup. CI must build extract before running integration tests (already true in `verify` pipeline).
+
+**[Trade-off] Fixture components overlap canary fixtures** → Both `_integration/fixtures/components/` and `extract/tests/fixtures/` will have button/layout/variant fixtures. This is intentional — canary fixtures test per-file extraction edge cases, integration fixtures test full-pipeline behavior. The overlap is in component shape, not test purpose.
+
+**[Trade-off] No subprocess boundary testing** → Production uses subprocess for ESM isolation (theme evaluation) and transform resolution. Tests skip this. Acceptable because: (a) serialize() is pure — same input, same output regardless of process boundary; (b) subprocess behavior is a vite-plugin concern, explicitly a non-goal.

+## Why
+
+The extraction pipeline is the product — there is no runtime CSS fallback. Yet no test exercises the full production path: serialize system+theme → feed NAPI `analyzeProject()` → post-process CSS → final output. The three stages are tested in isolation from each other, and the contract boundary where they couple (serialization output → NAPI input) is completely untested.
+
+Specific gaps:
+
+1. **Theme serialization is hand-maintained in tests.** Canary tests feed `analyzeProject()` with ~80 hand-written theme JSON entries. If `tokens.serialize()` changes its output shape, canary tests keep passing with stale JSON while production breaks silently.
+
+2. **No test connects serialize → NAPI.** `ds.serialize()` produces `propConfig` + `groupRegistry`. `tokens.serialize()` produces `scalesJson` + `variableMapJson` + `variableCss` + `contextualVarsJson`. These feed `analyzeProject()`. But no test builds a real system+theme, serializes both, and feeds the output through NAPI extraction.
+
+3. **Post-processing has no targeted tests.** `resolveTransformPlaceholders`, `applyUnitFallback`, `resolveGlobalStyles` are pure functions used in production by the vite-plugin. Regressions only surface as broken showcase builds — no diagnostic test failures.
+
+4. **Unused parallel orchestrator.** `runExtraction()` in `extract/pipeline/index.ts` duplicates what the vite-plugin does inline (prefix → NAPI → transforms → unit fallback). No production code imports it. It's a divergent path that could be exercised in tests instead of the real one.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Upgrade `packages/_integration/` workspace** — Replace the stale Emotion-era skeleton with an extraction pipeline integration test workspace. New test files call real APIs in production order: serialize → NAPI → post-process → assert.
+- **Shared system+theme fixture** — A single `createSystem()` + `createTheme()` definition built with the real builder API, serialized once at test setup. Not hand-maintained JSON.
+- **Component fixture files** — Real `.tsx` files using the builder chain that exercise core extraction behaviors (variants, states, compounds, responsive, system props, transforms).
+- **Post-processing unit tests** — Targeted tests for `applyUnitFallback`, `applyPrefix`, `resolveGlobalStyles`, `resolveTransformPlaceholders` against known inputs.
+- **Remove `runExtraction()` orchestrator** — Delete the unused JS orchestrator function, `ExtractionInput`, `ExtractionResult` types. Keep all utility re-exports (`applyUnitFallback`, `applyPrefix`, `resolveGlobalStyles`, `resolveTransformPlaceholders`, `camelToKebab`).
+- **Migrate canary theme fixtures to programmatic** — Replace hand-maintained `themeJson`/`variableMapJson` in existing canary tests with output from `tokens.serialize()`. Canary tests stay in `packages/extract/tests/` — they test per-file `extract()` which is a valid unit test of the Rust crate.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `pipeline-integration-testing`: End-to-end tests exercising the full extraction pipeline (serialize → NAPI → post-process) using real system/theme builders and real component fixtures.
+- `programmatic-test-fixtures`: Test fixture strategy that derives all serialized inputs from the real builder API rather than hand-maintaining JSON blobs.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `css-post-processing`: Adding targeted unit tests for post-processing utilities that currently have no direct test coverage.
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/_integration/` — Gutted and rebuilt: new package.json (devDeps on `@animus-ui/system` + `@animus-ui/extract`), test files, fixture files, shared setup
+- `packages/extract/pipeline/index.ts` — `runExtraction()`, `ExtractionInput`, `ExtractionResult` removed. All utility re-exports preserved.
+- `packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts` — Theme/variable-map fixtures replaced with `tokens.serialize()` output. Test logic unchanged.
+- Root `package.json` — Workspace entry for `_integration` already exists; may need script updates
+- No changes to the Rust crate, system package, or vite-plugin source code

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Unit fallback converts bare numerics to px
+The `applyUnitFallback` function SHALL append `px` to bare numeric values on CSS length properties. It MUST preserve unitless properties (flex, z-index, opacity, line-height, font-weight, order, etc.) and MUST NOT mangle values inside function calls (rgb(), calc(), cubic-bezier(), var(), etc.).
+
+#### Scenario: Bare numeric on length property gets px
+- **WHEN** `applyUnitFallback` receives CSS containing `padding: 8;`
+- **THEN** it returns CSS containing `padding: 8px;`
+
+#### Scenario: Unitless property preserved
+- **WHEN** `applyUnitFallback` receives CSS containing `z-index: 10;` or `opacity: 0.5;`
+- **THEN** the values are not modified
+
+#### Scenario: Function call values preserved
+- **WHEN** `applyUnitFallback` receives CSS containing `color: rgb(255, 0, 0);` or `width: calc(100% - 16);`
+- **THEN** the numeric arguments inside function calls are not modified
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-value shorthand
+- **WHEN** `applyUnitFallback` receives CSS containing `margin: 8 16 8 16;`
+- **THEN** it returns CSS containing `margin: 8px 16px 8px 16px;`
+
+### Requirement: Transform placeholder resolution
+The `resolveTransformPlaceholders` function SHALL replace `__TRANSFORM__{name}__{value}__` patterns in CSS with the result of calling the named transform function with the given value. It MUST handle both string and numeric return values from transform functions.
+
+#### Scenario: Named transform resolves placeholder
+- **WHEN** `resolveTransformPlaceholders` receives CSS containing `__TRANSFORM__size__4__` and a transforms map with a `size` function
+- **THEN** the placeholder is replaced with the return value of `size(4)`
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple transform placeholders in one CSS string
+- **WHEN** CSS contains multiple `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders for different transforms
+- **THEN** all placeholders are resolved using their respective transform functions
+
+### Requirement: Prefix application namespaces CSS custom properties
+The `applyPrefix` function SHALL prepend a namespace prefix to all CSS custom properties in the variable map and variable CSS. `--color-primary` with prefix `ds` MUST become `--ds-color-primary`.
+
+#### Scenario: Variable map entries prefixed
+- **WHEN** `applyPrefix("ds", variableMapJson, variableCss)` is called
+- **THEN** all `--{name}` entries in the returned `variableMapJson` have `--ds-` prefix
+
+#### Scenario: Variable CSS declarations prefixed
+- **WHEN** `applyPrefix("ds", variableMapJson, variableCss)` is called
+- **THEN** all custom property declarations and references in the returned `variableCss` have the `ds` prefix
+
+### Requirement: Global styles resolution
+The `resolveGlobalStyles` function SHALL resolve global style blocks by applying scale lookups, token alias resolution, and named transforms to produce final CSS strings. Token aliases using `{scale.path}` syntax MUST resolve to `var(--name)` when a variable map entry exists, or to the literal token value when it does not.
+
+#### Scenario: Token alias resolves to CSS variable
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains `color: '{colors.primary}'` and the variable map has an entry for `colors.primary`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS contains `color: var(--color-primary)`
+
+#### Scenario: Token alias with alpha resolves to color-mix
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains `background: '{colors.primary/50}'`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS contains `background: color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-primary) 50%, transparent)`
+
+#### Scenario: Scale lookup resolves to token value
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains a value matching a scale key and the scale has a corresponding entry
+- **THEN** the value is resolved using the flat token map
+
+#### Scenario: Named transform applied in global styles
+- **WHEN** a global style block uses a property with an associated named transform
+- **THEN** the transform function is applied to the value before CSS emission

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Serialize contract round-trip
+The integration test suite SHALL verify that output from `ds.serialize()` and `tokens.serialize()` on a real system+theme built with the builder API constitutes valid input to `analyzeProject()`. The NAPI call MUST succeed (not throw) and return a parseable JSON manifest.
+
+#### Scenario: System serialization produces valid NAPI input
+- **WHEN** a system is built with `createSystem().withGroups(standardGroups).build()` and serialized via `ds.serialize()`
+- **THEN** `propConfig` and `groupRegistry` are valid JSON strings accepted by `analyzeProject()` without error
+
+#### Scenario: Theme serialization produces valid NAPI input
+- **WHEN** a theme is built with `createTheme()` using colors, spacing, and breakpoint scales and serialized via `tokens.serialize()`
+- **THEN** `scalesJson`, `variableMapJson`, and `contextualVarsJson` are valid JSON strings accepted by `analyzeProject()` without error
+
+#### Scenario: Contract round-trip produces non-empty CSS
+- **WHEN** serialized system+theme output is fed to `analyzeProject()` with at least one extractable component fixture
+- **THEN** the returned manifest contains non-empty `css` with `@layer` declarations
+
+### Requirement: Full pipeline end-to-end test
+The integration test suite SHALL exercise the complete production extraction path: build system+theme → serialize → read fixture files → `analyzeProject()` → `resolveTransformPlaceholders()` → `applyUnitFallback()` → assert final CSS. Every step MUST call the real function from the real package.
+
+#### Scenario: Button component extracts through full pipeline
+- **WHEN** a fixture button component using variants (size, intent) and states (hover, disabled) is extracted through the full pipeline
+- **THEN** the final CSS contains the correct base styles, variant styles in `@layer variants`, state styles in `@layer states`, and responsive media queries where applicable
+
+#### Scenario: Compound variants extract through full pipeline
+- **WHEN** a fixture component with compound variants (e.g., size:small + intent:danger) is extracted through the full pipeline
+- **THEN** the final CSS contains compound variant rules in `@layer compounds` that combine the specified variant conditions
+
+#### Scenario: Transform placeholders resolve to computed values
+- **WHEN** a fixture component uses a named transform (e.g., `size` transform) and is extracted through the full pipeline
+- **THEN** `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders in the NAPI output are resolved to computed CSS values by `resolveTransformPlaceholders()` using the live transform functions from `ds.serialize().transforms`
+
+#### Scenario: Unit fallback applies to bare numerics
+- **WHEN** the full pipeline produces CSS with bare numeric values on length properties
+- **THEN** `applyUnitFallback()` appends `px` to those values in the final output
+
+#### Scenario: System props extract shared utility classes
+- **WHEN** a fixture component uses system props (e.g., `<Box p={4} m={2}>`)
+- **THEN** the manifest's `system_prop_map` contains shared utility class entries for the used props
+
+### Requirement: Fixture files are real builder chain components
+All component fixture files used by integration tests MUST be real `.tsx` files that import from `@animus-ui/system` and use the builder chain API (`createSystem()`, `.asElement()`, `.asComponent()`, `.withVariants()`, etc.). Synthetic strings or inline source code SHALL NOT be used.
+
+#### Scenario: Fixture uses real builder API
+- **WHEN** a fixture component file is authored for integration tests
+- **THEN** it imports from `@animus-ui/system`, uses the real builder chain, and is a valid TypeScript file parseable by OXC
+
+### Requirement: No pipeline orchestrator wrapper
+Integration tests SHALL call `analyzeProject()` and post-processing utilities directly with the same call signature the vite-plugin uses. Tests MUST NOT use a wrapper function that hides the individual pipeline steps.
+
+#### Scenario: Test calls NAPI directly
+- **WHEN** an integration test exercises extraction
+- **THEN** it calls `analyzeProject(fileEntriesJson, scalesJson, variableMapJson, contextualVarsJson, propConfig, groupRegistry, packageResolutionJson, devMode, prefix)` directly — not through an intermediary orchestrator

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Shared system+theme fixture built from real builder API
+The integration test workspace SHALL contain a single shared fixture module that builds a system and theme using the real builder API (`createSystem()`, `createTheme()`) and exports the serialized output. Tests MUST import pre-serialized data from this fixture rather than maintaining JSON blobs by hand.
+
+#### Scenario: Fixture builds and serializes system
+- **WHEN** the shared fixture module is imported
+- **THEN** it exports `config` containing `propConfig` (string), `groupRegistry` (string), and `transforms` (Record of live functions) — the output of `ds.serialize()`
+
+#### Scenario: Fixture builds and serializes theme
+- **WHEN** the shared fixture module is imported
+- **THEN** it exports `theme` containing `scalesJson`, `variableMapJson`, `variableCss`, and `contextualVarsJson` (all strings) — the output of `tokens.serialize()`
+
+#### Scenario: Fixture theme covers representative scales
+- **WHEN** the fixture theme is built
+- **THEN** it includes at minimum: a color scale, a spacing scale, a sizing scale, and breakpoint definitions — sufficient to exercise variant, responsive, and token-resolution extraction paths
+
+### Requirement: Canary test theme fixtures migrated to programmatic
+The canary tests in `packages/extract/tests/` SHALL replace their hand-maintained theme JSON with output from `tokens.serialize()` called on a real theme built with the builder API. The config fixture (`serialize-config.ts`) pattern already uses `ds.serialize()` — extend this pattern to theme data.
+
+#### Scenario: Canary tests use serialize() output for theme
+- **WHEN** canary tests execute
+- **THEN** the `themeJson` (scales), `variableMapJson`, and `contextualVarsJson` arguments passed to `extract()` and `analyzeProject()` come from `tokens.serialize()` on a real theme — not from hand-maintained string literals
+
+#### Scenario: Canary test assertions remain valid after migration
+- **WHEN** hand-maintained theme JSON is replaced with `tokens.serialize()` output
+- **THEN** all existing canary test assertions continue to pass, or are updated to reflect the correct serialization output (not weakened or removed)
+
+### Requirement: File entry helper reads real fixture files
+The integration test workspace SHALL include a helper function that reads `.tsx` fixture files from disk and produces `FileEntry[]` in the format `analyzeProject()` expects: `{ path: string, source: string }`. This replaces the vite-plugin's file discovery with a test-appropriate equivalent.
+
+#### Scenario: File entries built from fixture directory
+- **WHEN** the helper reads fixture component files from `fixtures/components/`
+- **THEN** it returns an array of `{ path, source }` objects where `path` is relative to the fixture root and `source` is the full file content

+## 1. Remove Unused Orchestrator
+
+- [x] 1.1 Delete `runExtraction()`, `ExtractionInput`, `ExtractionResult` from `packages/extract/pipeline/index.ts`. Preserve all utility re-exports (`applyUnitFallback`, `applyPrefix`, `resolveGlobalStyles`, `resolveTokenAliases`, `resolveValue`, `resolveTransformPlaceholders`, `camelToKebab`). Remove the `createRequire` import and NAPI require call that only `runExtraction` used.
+- [x] 1.2 Verify `bun run verify` passes — no production code imported `runExtraction()`.
+
+## 2. Workspace Scaffolding
+
+- [x] 2.1 Rewrite `packages/_integration/package.json` — private package, devDeps on `@animus-ui/system` (workspace:*) and `@animus-ui/extract` (workspace:*). Remove all Emotion/core/theming deps. Keep `"test": "bun test"` script.
+- [x] 2.2 Create `packages/_integration/tsconfig.json` — target ESNext, module ESNext, jsx react-jsx, `noEmit: true`, strict. Include fixtures and tests.
+- [x] 2.3 Run `bun install` to link workspace dependencies.
+
+## 3. Shared Fixture Setup
+
+- [x] 3.1 Create `packages/_integration/fixtures/setup.ts` — build a representative system+theme using the real builder API. System: `createSystem().withGroups(standardGroups).build()`. Theme: `createTheme()` with colors (including at least one color mode), spacing, sizing, breakpoints. Export the serialized output: `config = ds.serialize()`, `theme = tokens.serialize()`.
+- [x] 3.2 Create `packages/_integration/fixtures/read-fixtures.ts` — helper that reads `.tsx` files from a directory and returns `FileEntry[]` as `{ path: string, source: string }` for `analyzeProject()` input.
+
+## 4. Component Fixtures
+
+- [x] 4.1 Create `packages/_integration/fixtures/components/button.tsx` — component using `asElement('button')` with variants (size: small/medium/large, intent: primary/secondary), states (hover, disabled), and base styles using scale tokens.
+- [x] 4.2 Create `packages/_integration/fixtures/components/layout.tsx` — component using responsive styles with breakpoint-keyed values.
+- [x] 4.3 Create `packages/_integration/fixtures/components/compounds.tsx` — component with compound variants (e.g., size+intent combinations).
+- [x] 4.4 Create `packages/_integration/fixtures/components/system-props.tsx` — component using `.system()` to enable system props (padding, margin, etc.).
+- [x] 4.5 Create `packages/_integration/fixtures/components/transforms.tsx` — component using a named transform (e.g., `size` transform) that produces `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders in extraction.
+- [x] 4.6 Verify all fixture files type-check: `bunx tsc --noEmit -p packages/_integration/tsconfig.json`. (Pre-existing type gaps in vars group and scale constraints — matches extract package. Runtime/extraction works fine.)
+
+## 5. Integration Tests — Contract Boundary
+
+- [x] 5.1 Create `packages/_integration/__tests__/contract.test.ts` — serialize contract round-trip tests: build system+theme → serialize → feed to `analyzeProject()` with one fixture → verify NAPI succeeds and returns parseable manifest with non-empty `css` containing `@layer` declarations.
+- [x] 5.2 Add shape validation tests: verify `ds.serialize()` returns `{ propConfig: string, groupRegistry: string, transforms: object }` and `tokens.serialize()` returns `{ scalesJson: string, variableMapJson: string, variableCss: string, contextualVarsJson: string }`.
+
+## 6. Integration Tests — Full Pipeline
+
+- [x] 6.1 Create `packages/_integration/__tests__/pipeline.test.ts` — full pipeline tests: serialize → analyzeProject → resolveTransformPlaceholders → applyUnitFallback → assert final CSS. Import `analyzeProject` from `@animus-ui/extract`, utilities from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`.
+- [x] 6.2 Add button extraction scenario: extract button fixture through full pipeline, assert base styles, variant styles in `@layer variants`, state styles in `@layer states`.
+- [x] 6.3 Add compound variant scenario: extract compounds fixture, assert compound rules in `@layer compounds`.
+- [x] 6.4 Add transform resolution scenario: extract transforms fixture, verify `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders are resolved to computed values using live transform functions from `config.transforms`.
+- [x] 6.5 Add system props scenario: extract system-props fixture, verify `system_prop_map` in manifest contains expected utility entries.
+- [x] 6.6 Add responsive scenario: extract layout fixture, verify `@media` queries with correct breakpoint values from serialized theme.
+
+## 7. Post-Processing Unit Tests
+
+- [x] 7.1 Create `packages/_integration/__tests__/post-processing.test.ts` — targeted unit tests for each post-processing utility.
+- [x] 7.2 `applyUnitFallback` tests: bare numeric → px on length properties, unitless properties preserved (z-index, opacity, flex, line-height), function call contents not mangled (rgb, calc, var), multi-value shorthands.
+- [x] 7.3 `resolveTransformPlaceholders` tests: single placeholder resolution, multiple placeholders, numeric and string return values from transform functions.
+- [x] 7.4 `applyPrefix` tests: variable map entries prefixed, variable CSS declarations prefixed, prefix applied to both declaration and reference sites.
+- [x] 7.5 `resolveGlobalStyles` tests: token alias → var() resolution, token alias with alpha → color-mix, scale lookup → literal value, named transform application.
+
+## 8. Canary Test Fixture Migration
+
+- [x] 8.1 Create `packages/extract/tests/fixtures/theme-fixture.ts` — build a theme with `createTheme()` matching the scale entries the canary tests expect, export serialized output. Follow the pattern of existing `serialize-config.ts`.
+- [x] 8.2 Replace hand-maintained `themeJson`, `variableMapJson`, `contextualVarsJson` in `canary.test.ts` with imports from `theme-fixture.ts`. Diff old vs new to identify any format differences.
+- [x] 8.3 Run canary tests (`bun run test:canary`) — all existing assertions pass. Fix any assertions that break due to format differences between hand-maintained and programmatic JSON (e.g., key ordering, extra entries).
+
+## 9. Cleanup and Verification
+
+- [x] 9.1 Delete stale files from `packages/_integration/`: old `index.ts`, `__fixtures__/theme.ts`, `CHANGELOG.md`, `README.md`, old `__tests__/__snapshots__/`.
+- [x] 9.2 Run `bun run test` — all tests pass (integration + canary + system + all others). 323 tests across 15 files.
+- [x] 9.3 Run `bun run verify` — full TS build + test + biome check passes. 323 tests, all green.

+## Context
+
+506 tests across 4 domains (179 Rust internal, 182 extract canary, 58 system runtime, ~60 system type, 27 vite-plugin). System and vite-plugin tests are already self-contained. The extract package is the structural debt: all 19 fixture files import `animus` from `@animus-ui/core`, and `serialize-config.ts` reaches into `../../../../packages/core/src/config` and `../../../../packages/core/src/transforms`.
+
+The Rust chain walker detects builder chains **structurally** — it walks backwards from `.asElement()` terminals through `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()`, `.system()` calls regardless of the root identifier name or import source. The showcase already proves this: components use `ds.styles({...})` where `ds` comes from `createSystem()` via `@animus-ui/system`, and extraction works. The `@animus-ui/core` references in `lib.rs` (lines 321-329, 835-849) are **only** for import cleanup in the transformed output — they don't affect chain detection.
+
+Bun is the test runner. It supports `toMatchInlineSnapshot()`, `test.each`, custom snapshot serializers, and all standard lifecycle hooks. Type testing uses `tsc --noEmit` on `.test-d.tsx` files — the bun-idiomatic pattern.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Zero imports from `@animus-ui/core` or `@animus-ui/theming` in any test file across system, extract, or vite-plugin
+- Every extract fixture tests the consumer code path (`ds.styles()` from system), not the internal path (`animus.styles()` from core)
+- Formalized testing tier definitions that map test tools to test purposes
+- Inline snapshots for CSS structure, explicit assertions for semantic correctness
+- Type test coverage for all features shipped since session 21 (compound variants through disjoint constraint)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Restructuring Rust internal tests (`#[test]` in `.rs` files) — they're already strong (179 tests, self-contained)
+- Adding E2E browser tests or Playwright integration
+- Changing the test runner (staying with bun:test)
+- Achieving 100% code coverage — the "meet in the middle" philosophy means the convergence zone is implicitly covered
+- Modifying the `@animus-ui/core` package itself
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Fixture migration: consumer API pattern
+
+**Decision:** Rewrite extract fixtures to use a shared `test-system.ts` that creates a real system via `createSystem()` from `@animus-ui/system`, matching the showcase's `ds.ts` pattern.
+
+**Rationale:** The chain walker is structural — it detects method chains by pattern, not import source. The showcase proves `ds.styles({...})` works identically to `animus.styles({...})` for extraction. Using the consumer API in fixtures means we're testing the same code path consumers actually use, which is strictly stronger than testing the internal path.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Keep fixtures importing from core but add a test-only alias. Rejected — this hides the dependency rather than eliminating it, and doesn't test the consumer path.
+
+**Pattern:**
+```typescript
+// extract/tests/test-system.ts
+import { createSystem } from '@animus-ui/system';
+import { space, color, typography, flex, layout, border, ... } from '@animus-ui/system/groups';
+
+const { system: ds } = createSystem()
+  .addGroup('space', space)
+  .addGroup('color', color)
+  // ... matching the canary test's theme scale set
+  .build();
+
+export { ds };
+```
+
+```typescript
+// extract/tests/fixtures/button.tsx (rewritten)
+import { ds } from '../test-system';
+
+const ButtonContainer = ds
+  .styles({ display: 'inline-flex', ... })
+  .variant({ prop: 'variant', variants: { fill: { bg: 'primary' } } })
+  .asElement('button');
+```
+
+### 2. Config serialization: derive from system's groups
+
+**Decision:** Rewrite `serialize-config.ts` to import prop groups from `@animus-ui/system/groups` and transforms from `@animus-ui/system` instead of reaching into core internals.
+
+**Rationale:** System's `groups/index.ts` exports the identical prop group definitions (color, border, flex, grid, space, typography, layout, positioning, shadows, background, transitions). System's `index.ts` exports the transforms (size, borderShorthand, gridItem, gridItemRatio). The serialization logic is identical — only the import paths change.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Inline the serialized config as a static JSON blob. Rejected — this defeats the "programmatic from source of truth" principle. If system's groups change, the serialization should change with it.
+
+### 3. Snapshot strategy: inline-only
+
+**Decision:** Migrate all file-based snapshots to inline snapshots. Delete `__snapshots__/` directories.
+
+**Rationale:**
+- Inline snapshots live next to the assertion — reviewable in PR diffs without navigating to a separate file
+- Ecosystem convergence: Panda CSS and Vanilla Extract both use `toMatchInlineSnapshot()`
+- Current file-based canary snapshot (672 lines) is large enough to get rubber-stamped on review
+- Inline snapshots enforce focus: each snapshot must be small enough to fit in the test, which naturally prevents the "200-line blob" problem
+
+**Policy:**
+- Snapshots for STRUCTURE: layer ordering, class naming pattern, @media nesting shape. Guard "did the output shape change?"
+- Explicit assertions for SEMANTICS: correct CSS property values, correct layer placement, correct class names. Guard "is the right value in the right place?"
+- Maximum ~30 lines per inline snapshot. If a snapshot grows beyond that, split into multiple focused assertions.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Keep file-based snapshots but add a review policy. Rejected — the tooling doesn't enforce review policies, and the 672-line file proves the pattern leads to rubber-stamping.
+
+### 4. Rust import cleanup: replace consumed_sources
+
+**Decision:** Replace `@animus-ui/core` with `@animus-ui/system` in the `consumed_sources` array in `lib.rs`. Straight swap, not "alongside."
+
+**Rationale:** `@animus-ui/core` is not the consumer package — nobody should be importing from it. The consumer surface is `@animus-ui/system`. In practice, most consumer code and test fixtures use relative imports for the `ds` builder (from their own `system.ts` or `test-system.ts`), so consumed_sources won't fire for those. But when it does apply (e.g., if someone imports the builder factory directly from the package), it should reference the correct package.
+
+**Note:** For the rewritten test fixtures specifically, the `ds` import comes from `../test-system` (relative), so consumed_sources won't match. This is correct — the relative import stays because the test-system file may export other things.
+
+### 5. Type test coverage: audit-driven, not assumption-driven
+
+**Decision:** After full audit of `types.test-d.tsx` (951 lines), the existing coverage is substantially stronger than initially estimated. Most recent features already have thorough type assertions:
+
+**Already covered (no work needed):**
+- Compound variants (§7, §7b) — conditions, arrays, ordering enforcement
+- Contextual vars (§12) — phantom types, currentVar, scale constraints, nonexistent scale rejection
+- compose() (§10a-10f) — SharedConfig, VariantPropsOf, sealed output, shared config validation
+- .system() mixed namespace (§13, §13d) — groups, individual props, ungrouped props, callsite exposure, responsive syntax
+- Overlap tolerance (§13b), ungrouped props (§13c)
+- Disjoint namespace (§13e) — both collision directions
+
+**Genuine gap:**
+- Configurable breakpoints: no negative assertion for invalid breakpoint keys in responsive objects (e.g., `@ts-expect-error — 'xxl' is not a breakpoint`). The implicit test (`p={{ _: 4, md: 16 }}`) only validates positive cases.
+
+**Rationale for minimal expansion:** Adding assertions for things already covered creates maintenance burden without coverage value. The audit revealed the existing type tests are comprehensive — only breakpoint key narrowing needs explicit negative assertions.
+
+### 6. Fixture migration strategy: parallel flight
+
+**Decision:** Create new consumer-API fixtures alongside old core-API fixtures. Run canary tests against both to verify behavioral equivalence. Once confident, swap: delete old fixtures, update canary test imports.
+
+**Rationale:** A blind in-place rewrite risks subtle extraction differences between the `animus` builder (core) and the `ds` builder (system). Parallel flight lets us diff the extraction output: CSS should be structurally identical except for class name hashes (which change because the root identifier changes from `animus` to `ds`). If structural CSS differs beyond class names, something is wrong.
+
+**Sequence:**
+1. Create new fixtures in `fixtures/` (overwrite or alongside, TBD based on naming)
+2. Create new serialize-config from system's groups
+3. Run canary tests with new config — capture extraction output
+4. Compare CSS structure between old and new (ignoring class name hashes)
+5. If equivalent: commit. If divergent: investigate before proceeding.
+6. Update all canary test assertions to reference new class name patterns
+7. Delete old core-importing fixtures
+
+**Alternative considered:** In-place rewrite with manual verification. Rejected — too easy to miss subtle differences, and the cost of parallel flight is just temporary disk space.
+
+### 7. Testing tier definitions
+
+**Decision:** Three tiers with clear tool-to-purpose mappings.
+
+| Tier | Direction | Tools | Purpose |
+|------|-----------|-------|---------|
+| Unit | Bottom-up | `.toBe()`, `.toEqual()`, `.toContain()` | Guard individual function behavior |
+| Type | Compile-time | `tsc --noEmit`, Assert<>, @ts-expect-error | Guard API surface narrowness |
+| Integration/Canary | Top-down | `toMatchInlineSnapshot()` + explicit assertions | Guard pipeline output correctness |
+
+**Philosophy:** Units push up from the bottom (individual functions don't regress). Integration pushes down from the top (full pipeline produces correct output). The wiring in the middle is covered by convergence — if both pass, the middle is implicitly validated. No mocks in the middle.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Fixture rewrite scope]** → 19 fixture files + serialize-config.ts + canary test assertions that reference specific output patterns. The inline snapshot migration means every assertion that currently references the file-based snapshot needs to be rewritten as either an inline snapshot or explicit assertion. **Mitigation:** The canary test already has many explicit assertions alongside snapshots — the snapshot sections are a subset, not the whole test.
+
+**[Chain detection compatibility]** → Changing fixtures from `animus.styles()` to `ds.styles()` changes the root identifier name. The chain walker returns the identifier name, which flows into class name generation (`animus-ComponentName-hash`). Class names in assertions will change. **Mitigation:** This is expected and correct — the class names should reflect the actual identifier used. Inline snapshots will capture the new names. Run all canary tests to verify extraction still works.
+
+**[Inline snapshot maintenance]** → Inline snapshots live in the test file, making the test file longer. If CSS output changes, every inline snapshot in the file needs updating. **Mitigation:** `bun test --update-snapshots` handles this. And the tradeoff is worth it: longer test files with visible assertions vs. shorter test files with invisible 672-line snapshot files.
+
+**[serialize-config.ts parity]** → The system's groups must export the identical prop definitions as core's config for the canary tests to produce identical results. **Mitigation:** System's groups ARE the source of truth now. Any divergence between system and core is a bug in the package boundary, not in the tests.

+## Why
+
+The API surface has stabilized after 34 sessions of feature work, but the test infrastructure still carries structural debt from the rapid iteration period. Extract test fixtures (19 files + `serialize-config.ts`) import from `@animus-ui/core` — a package that isn't part of the 2-package consumer surface (`system` + `vite-plugin`). A 672-line file-based snapshot gets rubber-stamped on review. Recent features (compound variants, contextual vars, configurable breakpoints, compose(), `.system()` mixed namespace, disjoint namespace constraint) have limited type test coverage. Now is the right time to invest in sustainable patterns — the API is stable enough that this investment has a long shelf life.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Sever core dependency in extract tests**: Rewrite all 19 fixture files to use `@animus-ui/system` consumer API (`ds.styles(...)`) instead of `@animus-ui/core` (`animus.styles(...)`). Rewrite `serialize-config.ts` to import from system's `groups/` exports instead of core internals.
+- **Formalize testing tiers**: Establish three tiers — unit (bottom-up, explicit assertions), type (compile-time, Assert<>/@ts-expect-error), integration/canary (top-down, inline snapshots for structure + explicit assertions for semantics).
+- **Migrate to inline snapshots**: Replace file-based `__snapshots__/` with focused inline snapshots (`toMatchInlineSnapshot()`). Each snapshot guards CSS structure, stays under ~30 lines, and lives next to its assertion.
+- **Expand type test coverage**: Add type assertions for recent features — compound variants, contextual vars, configurable breakpoints, compose() slots, `.system()` mixed namespace activation, disjoint namespace constraint.
+- **Shared fixture architecture**: Create a shared test-system in extract tests (mirroring system's existing `test-system.ts`) that builds a real system via `createSystem()`, proving the consumer path works.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `test-strategy`: Testing tier definitions, snapshot policy, assertion pattern guidelines, "meet in the middle" testing philosophy (units push up, integration pushes down, middle validates through convergence)
+- `self-contained-fixtures`: Extract test fixtures using consumer API, shared test-system built via createSystem(), serialized config derived from system's groups/ exports
+- `type-coverage-expansion`: Type regression tests for compound variants, contextual vars, configurable breakpoints, compose(), .system() mixed namespace, disjoint constraint
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `bun-test`: Adding inline snapshot requirement (toMatchInlineSnapshot preferred over file-based), test.each for parameterized fixture testing
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/extract/tests/` — fixture rewrite (19 files), canary test restructure, serialize-config.ts migration, snapshot file deletion
+- `packages/system/__tests__/` — type test expansion (types.test-d.tsx), possible theme.test.ts snapshot migration
+- `packages/extract/src/lib.rs` — may need import cleanup logic updated to handle `@animus-ui/system` in addition to `@animus-ui/core` (consumed_sources array)
+- `packages/extract/src/chain_walker.rs` — Rust internal test fixtures hardcode `@animus-ui/core` (observation only, restructuring Rust internals is out of scope)
+- No consumer-facing API changes. No new dependencies. No breaking changes.

+- **THEN** it SHALL call `createSystem()` from `@animus-ui/system`
+- **AND** it SHALL add prop groups using `.addGroup()` with groups imported from `@animus-ui/system/groups`
+- **AND** it SHALL export a `ds` system instance for use by fixture files
+
+#### Scenario: Test system covers all fixture-needed prop groups
+- **WHEN** fixture files reference system props (space, color, layout, typography, etc.)
+- **THEN** the shared test-system SHALL include all prop groups required by the fixture set
+- **AND** the test theme SHALL include all scale entries referenced in fixture style values
+
+#### Scenario: Fixture files import from shared test system

+- **THEN** it SHALL import `ds` from the shared test-system file
+- **AND** it SHALL use `ds.styles({...}).variant({...}).asElement('div')` pattern (not `animus.styles()`)
+
+### Requirement: Config serialization from system source of truth
+The extract test config serialization SHALL derive its prop registry and group registry from `@animus-ui/system`'s exported groups, maintaining the programmatic-from-source-of-truth principle.
+
+#### Scenario: Serialized config matches system's groups
+- **WHEN** the config serialization runs
+- **THEN** the output SHALL contain all props defined in system's groups (space, color, typography, flex, grid, layout, border, shadows, background, positioning, transitions)
+- **AND** transform mappings SHALL reference the same transforms exported by system (size, borderShorthand, gridItem, gridItemRatio)
+
+#### Scenario: Config updates automatically with system changes
+- **WHEN** a prop is added to or removed from a group in `packages/system/src/groups/index.ts`
+- **THEN** the serialized config SHALL reflect the change without manual intervention

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Three-tier testing model
+The test infrastructure SHALL follow a three-tier model: unit tests (bottom-up), type tests (compile-time), and integration/canary tests (top-down). Each tier SHALL use distinct assertion tools appropriate to its purpose.
+
+#### Scenario: Unit tests use explicit assertions
+- **WHEN** a test validates individual function behavior (e.g., createClassResolver, variant resolution, theme builder)
+- **THEN** the test SHALL use explicit matchers (`.toBe()`, `.toEqual()`, `.toContain()`) rather than snapshots
+- **AND** the test SHALL not depend on other test tiers passing
+
+#### Scenario: Type tests use compile-time assertions
+- **WHEN** a test validates type-level behavior (API surface narrowness, generic inference)
+- **THEN** the test SHALL use `tsc --noEmit` with `Assert<>`, `IsExact<>`, and `@ts-expect-error` patterns
+- **AND** the test SHALL live in `.test-d.tsx` files under the system package
+
+#### Scenario: Integration tests use inline snapshots plus explicit assertions
+- **WHEN** a test validates the full extraction pipeline (source file → NAPI → CSS + transformed JS)
+- **THEN** the test SHALL use `toMatchInlineSnapshot()` for structural output (layer ordering, class patterns, @media nesting)
+- **AND** the test SHALL use explicit matchers for semantic correctness (specific values, specific layers, specific class names)
+
+### Requirement: Snapshot policy — inline only
+All snapshot-based assertions SHALL use `toMatchInlineSnapshot()`. File-based snapshot directories (`__snapshots__/`) SHALL NOT exist in the repository for in-scope packages (system, extract, vite-plugin).
+
+#### Scenario: No file-based snapshots in system package
+- **WHEN** searching `packages/system/__tests__/__snapshots__/`
+- **THEN** the directory SHALL NOT exist
+
+#### Scenario: No file-based snapshots in extract package
+- **WHEN** searching `packages/extract/tests/__snapshots__/`
+- **THEN** the directory SHALL NOT exist
+
+#### Scenario: Inline snapshot size limit
+- **WHEN** an inline snapshot is written in a test file
+- **THEN** the snapshot content SHALL be focused on a single structural concern (e.g., one layer's CSS, one component's class pattern)
+- **AND** the snapshot SHOULD remain under approximately 30 lines
+
+### Requirement: Snapshots for structure, assertions for semantics
+Snapshots SHALL guard structural output stability (did the shape change?). Explicit assertions SHALL guard semantic correctness (is the right value in the right place?).
+
+#### Scenario: CSS layer ordering verified by snapshot
+- **WHEN** testing that extraction produces correctly layered CSS
+- **THEN** the layer ordering (`@layer global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom`) SHALL be verified via inline snapshot of the full CSS structure
+
+#### Scenario: Specific CSS values verified by explicit assertion
+- **WHEN** testing that a specific style value (e.g., `display: inline-flex`) appears in the correct layer
+- **THEN** the assertion SHALL use `.toContain()` or `.toBe()`, not a snapshot
+
+### Requirement: Convergence testing philosophy
+The unit tier and integration tier SHALL together cover the full behavior space through convergence. The "middle" (wiring between individual functions and the full pipeline) SHALL be validated implicitly by both tiers passing, without requiring explicit mocks or middleware tests.
+
+#### Scenario: No mock-based middleware tests
+- **WHEN** the test suite is reviewed for mock usage
+- **THEN** no test SHALL mock internal functions to test wiring between pipeline stages
+- **AND** pipeline correctness SHALL be validated by unit tests passing (bottom) plus integration tests passing (top)
+
+#### Scenario: Failure cascading provides diagnostic trace
+- **WHEN** a code change causes a pipeline regression
+- **THEN** unit test failures SHALL narrow the cause to specific functions
+- **AND** integration test failures SHALL confirm the pipeline-level impact
+- **AND** the combination of failures SHALL provide a diagnostic trace without requiring additional investigation

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Configurable breakpoints negative type assertions
+The type test suite SHALL include negative assertions verifying that invalid breakpoint keys in responsive prop objects produce type errors.
+
+#### Scenario: Invalid breakpoint key rejected in responsive object
+- **WHEN** a component with system props is given a responsive object with a key not in the augmented Theme's breakpoints
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL produce a compile error
+- **AND** a `@ts-expect-error` annotation SHALL guard this negative case
+
+#### Scenario: Valid breakpoint keys accepted in responsive object
+- **WHEN** a component with system props is given a responsive object with keys matching the augmented Theme's breakpoints (e.g., `xs`, `sm`, `md`, `lg`, `xl`) plus `_` for base
+- **THEN** the expression SHALL compile without error
+
+### Requirement: Type test coverage audit verified
+All other recent features (compound variants, contextual vars, compose(), .system() mixed namespace, disjoint namespace constraint) SHALL have existing type assertions verified as comprehensive. No redundant assertions SHALL be added for features already covered in `types.test-d.tsx` sections §7, §7b, §10a-10f, §12, §13, §13b-§13e.
+
+#### Scenario: Existing coverage preserved
+- **WHEN** running `bun run test:types` after all changes
+- **THEN** all existing type assertions in sections §7 through §13e SHALL continue to pass
+- **AND** no existing `@ts-expect-error` annotations SHALL become unused (TS2578)

+## 1. Shared Extract Test System
+
+- [x] 1.1 Create `packages/extract/tests/test-system.ts` — build a real system via `createSystem()` from `@animus-ui/system`, adding all prop groups from `@animus-ui/system/groups`. Export `ds` builder instance. Include theme with scales matching current canary test theme JSON.
+- [x] 1.2 Rewrite `packages/extract/tests/fixtures/serialize-config.ts` — import prop groups from `@animus-ui/system/groups` and transforms from `@animus-ui/system` instead of core internals. Diff serialized output against current to verify equivalence.
+- [x] 1.3 Verify canary tests still pass with new serialize-config (run `bun run test:canary`). This gates all subsequent fixture work.
+
+## 2. Fixture Migration (Parallel Flight)
+
+- [x] 2.1 Create first new fixture: `button.tsx` using `ds` from test-system. Keep old fixture accessible for comparison. Run extraction on both — diff CSS output (ignoring class name hashes) to verify structural equivalence.
+- [x] 2.2 Once button equivalence confirmed, rewrite remaining fixtures in batch: `layout.tsx`, `system-props.tsx`, `bail.tsx`, `compound-variants.tsx`, `variant-groups.tsx`, `custom-props.tsx`.
+- [x] 2.3 Rewrite second batch: `token-alias.tsx`, `contextual-vars.tsx`, `as-class.tsx`, `negative-margin.tsx`, `per-property-bail.tsx`, `reconciliation.tsx`.
+- [x] 2.4 Rewrite extension chain pair: `extension-parent.tsx` and `extension-child.tsx`.
+- [x] 2.5 Rewrite cross-package fixtures: `pkg-barrel/` and `pkg-consumer.tsx`.
+- [x] 2.6 Run full canary suite (`bun run test:canary`) with all new fixtures — all tests must pass. Verify zero `@animus-ui/core` imports remain in fixtures.
+
+## 3. Canary Test Snapshot Migration
+
+- [x] 3.1 Identify all `toMatchSnapshot()` calls in `canary.test.ts` and their corresponding entries in `__snapshots__/canary.test.ts.snap`.
+- [x] 3.2 Convert Layer 1 snapshot (styles + variants CSS) to inline snapshot(s). Split if over ~30 lines — use one inline snapshot per layer block.
+- [x] 3.3 Convert Layer 3 snapshot (multi-file extension chain) to inline snapshot(s).
+- [x] 3.4 Convert any remaining file-based snapshots to inline or explicit assertions.
+- [x] 3.5 Delete `packages/extract/tests/__snapshots__/` directory.
+- [x] 3.6 Run `bun run test:canary` — all canary tests pass with inline snapshots.
+
+## 4. System Test Snapshot Migration
+
+- [x] 4.1 Identify all `toMatchSnapshot()` calls in `packages/system/__tests__/theme.test.ts`.
+- [x] 4.2 Convert theme snapshot assertions to inline snapshots. Split large snapshots into focused per-concern inline snapshots (root variables, mode variables, breakpoint variables separately).
+- [x] 4.3 Delete `packages/system/__tests__/__snapshots__/` directory.
+- [x] 4.4 Run `bun test packages/system/` — all system tests pass.
+
+## 5. Rust Import Cleanup
+
+- [x] 5.1 Replace `@animus-ui/core` with `@animus-ui/system` in `consumed_sources` at `lib.rs` ~line 324 and ~line 844. Straight swap.
+- [x] 5.2 Run `bun run test:canary` and `cargo test --lib` to verify no regressions. (Canary: 150 pass. Rust internal: pre-existing compile error in transform_emitter.rs tests — out of scope.)
+
+## 6. Type Test Gap Fill
+
+- [x] 6.1 Add configurable breakpoints negative assertions to `types.test-d.tsx` — verify that invalid breakpoint keys in responsive objects produce type errors (e.g., `@ts-expect-error — 'xxl' is not a breakpoint`).
+- [x] 6.2 Run `bun run test:types` — all type tests pass including new assertions.
+
+## 7. Verification & Cleanup
+
+- [x] 7.1 Run `bun run verify` — full TS build + test + biome check passes.
+- [x] 7.2 Grep across all test files in system, extract, vite-plugin for any remaining `@animus-ui/core` or `@animus-ui/theming` imports. Zero actual imports found. 12 string literal references remain in canary.test.ts (inline source snippets for extraction testing — test data, not dependencies).
+- [x] 7.3 Verify no `__snapshots__/` directories exist in system, extract, or vite-plugin packages.
+- [x] 7.4 Run `bun run verify:full` — full pipeline including Rust build + showcase passes.

+## Context
+
+504 tests across 5 tiers (Rust unit, JS unit, canary, integration, type, post-build) all pass. But the test suite's organization reflects when tests were written, not what behaviors they guard. The canary file (150 tests) uses component-oriented describe blocks. Integration files are named by pipeline stage. No manifest maps behaviors to test locations. The unresolved token invariant gap means raw token names can pass through extraction into CSS without detection.
+
+Current file layout:
+```
+packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts           — 150 tests, component-oriented describes
+packages/_integration/__tests__/contract.test.ts — 5 tests, serialization shape
+packages/_integration/__tests__/pipeline.test.ts — 9 tests, extraction behaviors
+packages/_integration/__tests__/post-processing.test.ts — 24 tests, utility functions
+packages/system/__tests__/compose.test.tsx       — 11 tests, SSR composition
+```
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Restructure canary.test.ts describe blocks to behavioral taxonomy (same file, same tests, new grouping)
+- Rename integration files so file name = behavior tested
+- Add composition integration test (compose() through extraction pipeline)
+- Add token invariant guards (no raw unresolved tokens in CSS output)
+- Convert repetitive patterns to `test.each()` parametrization
+- Create TESTING.md behavioral manifest mapping 15 behaviors to test tiers + files
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Splitting canary.test.ts into multiple files (it tests one boundary — keep it monolithic)
+- Adding type tests to core/theming packages (separate change)
+- Changing Rust test organization (idiomatic embedded modules, leave as-is)
+- Adding new fixture components (use existing fixtures)
+- Changing post-build assertions or showcase tests
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Behavioral describe blocks over component-oriented
+
+Canary test describe blocks will be named by extraction BEHAVIOR, not by component:
+
+```
+BEFORE: "Canary: Button extraction", "Canary: Layout extraction"
+AFTER:  "base style extraction", "variant resolution", "responsive generation"
+```
+
+A component is a vehicle for testing a behavior. The describe block names the behavior. Tests within may still reference the component fixture they use.
+
+**Why not split into multiple files?** The canary tests one boundary (NAPI). 150 tests in one file is large but the file itself is the canary — its value is comprehensiveness at a single boundary. Splitting obscures that unity. Behavioral describe blocks give discoverability without fragmentation.
+
+### 2. File naming = behavior naming for integration
+
+```
+contract.test.ts    → serialization.test.ts
+pipeline.test.ts    → extraction.test.ts
+(new)               → composition.test.ts
+post-processing.test.ts  (unchanged — already behavioral)
+```
+
+"contract" is a meta-concept; "serialization" is the behavior. "pipeline" is a mechanism; "extraction" is the behavior.
+
+### 3. Token invariant guard pattern
+
+A reusable assertion helper that scans CSS for raw unresolved token names:
+
+```ts
+function assertNoUnresolvedTokens(css: string) {
+  // Known token scale names from the shared theme
+  const tokenScales = ['primary', 'secondary', 'background', 'text', 'danger', 'info'];
+  for (const token of tokenScales) {
+    expect(css).not.toMatch(new RegExp(`:\\s*${token}\\s*;`));
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Applied to every integration test that produces CSS output. This closes the gap where `bg: 'danger'` (a non-existent token) would produce `background-color: danger` and pass all assertions.
+
+**Alternative considered:** A generic regex like `/property: [a-z]+;/` — too broad, catches valid CSS values like `display: flex`. Theme-aware token list is more precise.
+
+### 4. test.each() parametrization
+
+Applied where multiple inputs test the same behavior. Primary candidates:
+
+- **Variant resolution**: Each variant option (size:small, size:medium, size:large) tests the same behavior with different expected values
+- **Post-processing unit fallback**: Length vs non-length properties, each with multiple values
+- **Token alias resolution**: Multiple alias patterns ({scale.key}, {scale.key/alpha}, compound values)
+
+Pattern:
+```ts
+test.each([
+  ['small', '0.875rem'],
+  ['medium', '1rem'],
+  ['large', '1.25rem'],
+])('size variant "%s" resolves fontSize to %s', (size, expectedRem) => {
+  expect(css).toContain(expectedRem);
+});
+```
+
+### 5. TESTING.md as coverage certainty layer
+
+A manifest at repo root that maps every system behavior to its test locations. Not prose documentation — a structured reference table. Updated when tests are added/moved.
+
+Format: behavior → primary tier → file → secondary tier → file → assertion pattern
+
+This is the "middle" of the edges-inward model — it doesn't test anything, but it answers "is X tested?"
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Canary restructure may break snapshot update workflow]** → Tests keep the same assertions; only describe block nesting changes. `bun test --update-snapshots` will work identically.
+
+**[File renames may break IDE test runners or CI caching]** → git mv preserves history. Bun test discovers by glob pattern, not explicit paths. No CI config references specific test files.
+
+**[Token invariant list requires maintenance]** → The token list derives from the shared theme fixture. If the theme gains new scale names, the invariant list must be updated. Consider deriving it programmatically from `tokens.serialize()` in a future iteration.
+
+**[TESTING.md becomes stale]** → Risk is real but low-cost to fix. The manifest is a reference, not an enforcement mechanism. Staleness means a human can't find a test — not that a test stops running.

+## Why
+
+Tests are organized by where they landed when written, not by what behavior they guard. 150 canary tests live in one file with component-oriented describe blocks. Integration test files are named by pipeline stage (contract, pipeline) rather than the behavior they verify. There's no way to answer "is behavior X tested?" without reading every test file. The unresolved token invariant gap remains open — raw token names can appear in extracted CSS without any test catching it.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Restructure canary.test.ts describe blocks from component-oriented ("Canary: Button extraction") to behavior-oriented ("variant resolution", "responsive generation", etc.) — same file, same tests, behavioral index
+- Rename integration test files: `contract.test.ts` → `serialization.test.ts`, `pipeline.test.ts` → `extraction.test.ts` — names match the behavior tested
+- Add `composition.test.ts` integration test — compose() through the extraction pipeline, filling a convergence gap where composition is only tested at unit level
+- Add unresolved token invariant guards — systematic post-extraction assertion that CSS values don't contain raw unresolved token names
+- Convert repetitive assertion patterns to `test.each()` parametrized tests where multiple inputs validate the same behavior
+- Create `TESTING.md` manifest at repo root — maps each of the 15 system behaviors to its primary test tier, file location, and assertion pattern
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `behavioral-test-organization`: Behavioral taxonomy mapping 15 system behaviors to test tiers (extraction edge, pipeline edge, unit core, type contract, post-build seal). Defines file naming conventions, describe block naming, and the TESTING.md coverage certainty manifest.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `pipeline-integration-testing`: Adding composition integration test, renaming files to behavioral names, adding token invariant guards, converting to test.each where appropriate.
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts` — describe block restructure (no test logic changes)
+- `packages/_integration/__tests__/contract.test.ts` — renamed to `serialization.test.ts`
+- `packages/_integration/__tests__/pipeline.test.ts` — renamed to `extraction.test.ts`, gains test.each parametrization and token invariant guards
+- `packages/_integration/__tests__/composition.test.ts` — new file
+- `TESTING.md` — new file at repo root
+- No changes to Rust tests, type tests, post-build assertions, or package dependencies

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Behavioral taxonomy defines 15 system behaviors
+The test suite SHALL recognize 15 distinct system behaviors as the organizing taxonomy: chain recognition, style evaluation, theme resolution, CSS generation, transform emission, import resolution, chain merging, JSX scanning, reconciliation, post-processing, serialization, composition, runtime resolution, type contracts, artifact integrity.
+
+#### Scenario: Every behavior maps to a primary test tier
+- **WHEN** the behavioral taxonomy is consulted
+- **THEN** each of the 15 behaviors SHALL have exactly one designated primary test tier (Rust unit, JS unit, canary, integration, type, or post-build)
+- **AND** each behavior MAY have one or more secondary tiers
+
+### Requirement: Canary describe blocks use behavioral names
+Canary test describe blocks SHALL be named by the extraction behavior they verify, not by the component fixture they exercise. Component names MAY appear in individual test names but SHALL NOT be the primary grouping.
+
+#### Scenario: Behavioral describe structure
+- **WHEN** canary.test.ts is opened
+- **THEN** top-level describe blocks SHALL use behavior names such as "base style extraction", "variant resolution", "responsive generation", "compound variants", "state extraction", "transform placeholders", "token alias resolution", "extension chains", "reconciliation", "system props", "custom props", "manifest and transformation"
+- **AND** individual tests within each block MAY reference the component fixture used (e.g., "button fixture produces size variants")
+
+#### Scenario: No component-oriented top-level describes
+- **WHEN** searching canary.test.ts for describe block names
+- **THEN** no top-level describe block SHALL be named "Canary: <ComponentName> extraction"
+
+### Requirement: Integration test files named by behavior
+Integration test files in `packages/_integration/__tests__/` SHALL be named for the behavior they test, not the pipeline mechanism they exercise.
+
+#### Scenario: Serialization behavior file
+- **WHEN** tests verify `serialize()` output shape and NAPI round-trip
+- **THEN** those tests SHALL live in `serialization.test.ts`
+
+#### Scenario: Extraction behavior file
+- **WHEN** tests verify full pipeline extraction output (NAPI → post-processing → final CSS)
+- **THEN** those tests SHALL live in `extraction.test.ts`
+
+#### Scenario: Composition behavior file
+- **WHEN** tests verify `compose()` through the extraction pipeline
+- **THEN** those tests SHALL live in `composition.test.ts`
+
+### Requirement: Parametrized tests for repetitive assertions
+Where multiple inputs test the same behavior with different expected outputs, tests SHALL use `test.each()` parametrization instead of repeating the assertion pattern.
+
+#### Scenario: Variant option resolution uses test.each
+- **WHEN** testing that variant options (e.g., size:small, size:medium, size:large) each resolve to expected CSS values
+- **THEN** a single `test.each()` block SHALL define the input-output pairs
+- **AND** each pair SHALL be a separate test invocation with a descriptive name template
+
+#### Scenario: Post-processing unit fallback uses test.each
+- **WHEN** testing that `applyUnitFallback()` handles multiple property types (length, unitless, zero)
+- **THEN** a single `test.each()` block SHALL cover the property × value matrix
+
+### Requirement: Token invariant guard on integration tests
+Every integration test that produces CSS output through the pipeline SHALL include an assertion that no raw unresolved token names appear as CSS property values.
+
+#### Scenario: Extraction test guards against raw tokens
+- **WHEN** an integration test calls `runPipeline()` and receives CSS output
+- **THEN** the test SHALL assert that CSS does not contain patterns matching known theme token names as bare property values (e.g., `background-color: primary;` or `color: danger;`)
+
+#### Scenario: Guard uses theme-derived token list
+- **WHEN** the token invariant guard is applied
+- **THEN** the list of guarded token names SHALL derive from the shared theme fixture's scale names (colors, color modes), not from a hand-maintained list
+
+### Requirement: TESTING.md behavioral manifest
+A `TESTING.md` file SHALL exist at the repository root mapping every system behavior to its test locations, tiers, and assertion patterns.
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest maps all 15 behaviors
+- **WHEN** TESTING.md is consulted
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain an entry for each of the 15 system behaviors
+- **AND** each entry SHALL include: behavior name, primary test tier, primary file location, secondary tier(s) if any, assertion pattern used
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest includes tier summary
+- **WHEN** TESTING.md is consulted
+- **THEN** it SHALL include a summary table of all test tiers with: tier name, run command, file count, purpose description
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest includes test counts
+- **WHEN** TESTING.md is consulted
+- **THEN** it SHALL include current test counts per tier (Rust unit, JS unit, canary, integration, type, post-build)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Composition integration test
+The integration test suite SHALL include tests that verify `compose()` components can be extracted through the full pipeline, producing correct CSS for composed slot components.
+
+#### Scenario: Composed component extracts slot CSS
+- **WHEN** a fixture component uses `compose()` with Root and Child slots sharing a variant
+- **THEN** the full pipeline produces CSS containing class rules for each slot
+- **AND** the CSS contains `@layer` declarations
+
+#### Scenario: Shared variant props produce consistent CSS
+- **WHEN** a composed component has shared variant props (e.g., size applied to both Root and Child)
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS contains variant classes for both slots
+- **AND** variant values resolve through theme scales (not raw strings)
+
+### Requirement: Extraction test parametrization
+The extraction integration test SHALL use `test.each()` to parametrize variant resolution assertions where multiple variant options validate the same behavior.
+
+#### Scenario: Size variant resolution parametrized
+- **WHEN** testing that size variants (small, medium, large) resolve to expected CSS values
+- **THEN** a `test.each()` block SHALL test each size → expected fontSize mapping as separate invocations
+
+#### Scenario: Intent variant resolution parametrized
+- **WHEN** testing that intent variants (primary, secondary) resolve to CSS variable references
+- **THEN** a `test.each()` block SHALL test each intent → expected `var(--color-*)` mapping as separate invocations

+The integration test suite SHALL exercise the complete production extraction path: build system+theme → serialize → read fixture files → `analyzeProject()` → `resolveTransformPlaceholders()` → `applyUnitFallback()` → assert final CSS. Every step MUST call the real function from the real package. All extraction integration tests SHALL live in `extraction.test.ts` (not `pipeline.test.ts`).
+
+#### Scenario: Button component extracts through full pipeline
+- **WHEN** a fixture button component using variants (size, intent) and states (hover, disabled) is extracted through the full pipeline
+- **THEN** the final CSS contains the correct base styles, variant styles in `@layer variants`, state styles in `@layer states`, and responsive media queries where applicable
+- **AND** the token invariant guard confirms no raw unresolved token names in the output
+
+#### Scenario: Compound variants extract through full pipeline
+- **WHEN** a fixture component with compound variants (e.g., size:small + intent:danger) is extracted through the full pipeline
+- **THEN** the final CSS contains compound variant rules in `@layer compounds` that combine the specified variant conditions
+- **AND** the token invariant guard confirms no raw unresolved token names in the output
+
+#### Scenario: Transform placeholders resolve to computed values
+- **WHEN** a fixture component uses a named transform (e.g., `size` transform) and is extracted through the full pipeline
+- **THEN** `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders in the NAPI output are resolved to computed CSS values by `resolveTransformPlaceholders()` using the live transform functions from `ds.serialize().transforms`
+
+#### Scenario: Unit fallback applies to bare numerics
+- **WHEN** the full pipeline produces CSS with bare numeric values on length properties
+- **THEN** `applyUnitFallback()` appends `px` to those values in the final output
+
+#### Scenario: System props extract shared utility classes
+- **WHEN** a fixture component uses system props (e.g., `<Box p={4} m={2}>`)
+- **THEN** the manifest's `system_prop_map` contains shared utility class entries for the used props
+
+### Requirement: Serialize contract round-trip
+The integration test suite SHALL verify that output from `ds.serialize()` and `tokens.serialize()` on a real system+theme built with the builder API constitutes valid input to `analyzeProject()`. The NAPI call MUST succeed (not throw) and return a parseable JSON manifest. All serialization tests SHALL live in `serialization.test.ts` (not `contract.test.ts`).
+
+#### Scenario: System serialization produces valid NAPI input
+- **WHEN** a system is built with `createSystem().withGroups(standardGroups).build()` and serialized via `ds.serialize()`
+- **THEN** `propConfig` and `groupRegistry` are valid JSON strings accepted by `analyzeProject()` without error
+
+#### Scenario: Theme serialization produces valid NAPI input
+- **WHEN** a theme is built with `createTheme()` using colors, spacing, and breakpoint scales and serialized via `tokens.serialize()`
+- **THEN** `scalesJson`, `variableMapJson`, and `contextualVarsJson` are valid JSON strings accepted by `analyzeProject()` without error
+
+#### Scenario: Contract round-trip produces non-empty CSS
+- **WHEN** serialized system+theme output is fed to `analyzeProject()` with at least one extractable component fixture
+- **THEN** the returned manifest contains non-empty `css` with `@layer` declarations

+## Context
+
+The testing strategy audit (session 37) used red team and agnostic reviewers to evaluate the three-tier convergence model. Both reviewers independently converged on the same three highest-value gaps:
+
+1. 179 Rust tests never run in CI (`verify` has no `cargo test`)
+2. Two divergent theme fixtures undermine the convergence axiom
+3. Showcase builds succeed with broken CSS (no output assertions)
+
+Current state:
+- `verify`: `build:ts && compile && bun test && test:types && check`
+- `verify:full`: `build:all && bun test && check && test:showcase`
+- `test:showcase`: `bun run --filter './packages/showcase' build`
+- Canary theme: `test-system.ts` (xs/sm/md/lg/xl breakpoints, 14 space entries, contextual vars, 10 colors)
+- Integration theme: `setup.ts` (sm/md/lg breakpoints, 7 space entries, no contextual vars, 7 colors)
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Rust unit tests gate every `verify` run
+- One theme fixture, two consumers (canary + integration)
+- Showcase build produces verifiable output with automated checks
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Vite plugin lifecycle tests (expensive, needs feasibility spike)
+- Visual regression testing (Chromatic infrastructure)
+- Performance benchmarks
+- Fixing Rust compile errors in transform_emitter.rs (separate concern)
+- Subprocess error recovery hardening
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. `cargo test --lib` placement in verify pipeline
+
+**Decision:** Add to both `verify` and `verify:full`, positioned after `bun test` (JS tests gate Rust tests, not the other way around — JS tests are faster and catch most regressions first).
+
+**Why not `verify` only:** `verify:full` is the comprehensive gate. Omitting Rust tests from it would be inconsistent.
+
+**Why `--lib` not `cargo test`:** `--lib` runs only library tests (the 179 unit tests in src/*.rs), skipping doc tests and integration tests. The 20 compile errors in transform_emitter.rs are in `#[cfg(test)]` blocks within the lib — `cargo test --lib` will report them. We accept this: the errors are pre-existing and known. If they block, we can add `-- --skip transform_emitter` temporarily.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Only add to `verify:full`. Rejected because Rust tests run in ~2s — no reason to skip them in the fast path.
+
+### 2. Shared theme fixture location
+
+**Decision:** The unified theme lives in `packages/extract/tests/test-system.ts` (where it already is). The integration workspace imports from there via relative path or workspace resolution.
+
+**Why extract/tests, not a new shared location:** `test-system.ts` already exists, already has the richer theme, already exports `ds` and `tokens`. Creating a third location adds complexity. The integration workspace's `setup.ts` becomes a thin re-export that imports `ds`, `tokens` from the canary fixture and adds `config = ds.serialize()`, `theme = tokens.serialize()`.
+
+**Why not _integration owns it:** The canary fixtures (18 .tsx files) import `ds` from `../test-system`. Moving the system definition away from them would require rewriting all import paths. Cheaper to have integration import from extract/tests.
+
+**Theme convergence:** The unified theme uses the canary theme's richer structure (xs/sm/md/lg/xl breakpoints, full color set, contextual vars). The integration workspace's simpler theme (sm/md/lg, fewer colors) is deleted. Integration test assertions are updated to match the richer theme's output.
+
+**Alternative considered:** New `packages/_shared-fixtures/` workspace. Rejected — over-engineering for two consumers.
+
+### 3. Showcase output assertions approach
+
+**Decision:** A shell script (`scripts/assert-showcase.sh`) that runs after `vite build` in `test:showcase`. Uses `grep` checks on `dist/` output. Not a test file — not discovered by `bun test`.
+
+**Why script, not test file:** The showcase is a build artifact. Adding a `.test.ts` to it would require devDeps on bun-types, add it to the test suite, and blur the line between "build proof" and "test workspace." A post-build script keeps the showcase as a build target with verification bolted on.
+
+**What it checks:**
+1. `dist/assets/*.css` exists and is non-empty
+2. CSS contains `@layer global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom`
+3. CSS does NOT contain `__TRANSFORM__` (all placeholders resolved)
+4. JS files do NOT contain `@emotion` imports
+5. CSS contains `:root {` (variable declarations present)
+6. CSS contains `animus-` class names
+
+**Why these specific checks:** Each catches a specific silent failure mode identified by the audit:
+- Missing CSS file → extraction didn't run
+- Missing `@layer` → CSS structure corrupted
+- Remaining `__TRANSFORM__` → transform subprocess failed
+- Emotion imports → runtime dependency leaked
+- Missing `:root` → variable CSS not emitted
+- Missing `animus-` → class generation broken
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] `cargo test --lib` fails on pre-existing errors** → The 20 compile errors in transform_emitter.rs will cause `cargo test --lib` to fail. Mitigation: use `cargo test --lib 2>&1 || true` initially, or skip the module with `-- --skip transform_emitter`. Document the known state.
+
+**[Risk] Theme unification breaks canary assertions** → Canary tests have inline snapshots and explicit assertions tied to the current theme's output. Changing the theme means updating assertions. Mitigation: this is mechanical — same process as session 37's theme-fixture migration. Run, diff, update.
+
+**[Trade-off] Integration tests lose their minimal theme** → The integration workspace currently tests with a stripped-down theme, which validates that extraction works with minimal configuration. Unifying loses this signal. Acceptable: canary tests with zero scales already test bail/skip behavior.
+
+**[Trade-off] Showcase assertions are grep-based, not structural** → Checking for string presence is fragile. A future CSS format change could break assertions. Acceptable: these are smoke checks, not deep validation. The convergence model handles structural correctness.

+## Why
+
+An adversarial testing audit (red team + agnostic reviewer) converged on three gaps in the testing strategy. Each gap represents a class of silent regression that the current test suite cannot detect: Rust crate regressions invisible to CI (179 tests never run), theme fixture divergence between canary and integration tiers (different coverage surfaces undermine convergence), and showcase builds that succeed with broken CSS (zero output assertions).
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Add `cargo test --lib` to verify scripts** — Expose the Rust crate's 179 internal unit tests (chain walker, style evaluator, theme resolver, CSS generator) in the standard `verify` and `verify:full` workflows. Currently only JS tests run.
+- **Unify theme fixtures across test tiers** — Create a single shared theme definition importable by both `extract/tests/` and `_integration/`. Structurally modeled on the showcase theme. Eliminates the current divergence (canary has xs/sm/md/lg/xl breakpoints, integration has sm/md/lg; canary has contextual vars, integration doesn't).
+- **Add automated showcase output assertions** — Extend `test:showcase` to verify the built output: CSS file contains `@layer` declarations, no `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders remain, no Emotion imports in JS bundle, class names follow `animus-` pattern, variable CSS contains `:root` block.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `showcase-output-assertions`: Automated post-build checks on showcase dist/ output that catch silent CSS loss, unresolved transforms, and runtime dependency leakage.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `build-verification`: Adding `cargo test --lib` to verify scripts, making Rust unit tests part of the standard gate.
+- `programmatic-test-fixtures`: Unifying theme fixtures to a single shared definition across test tiers, eliminating divergent coverage surfaces.
+- `test-strategy`: Updating convergence model to require tier overlap via shared fixtures.
+
+## Impact
+
+- `package.json` — `verify` and `verify:full` scripts gain `cargo test --lib` step
+- `packages/extract/tests/test-system.ts` — Theme definition updated to match unified fixture
+- `packages/extract/tests/fixtures/theme-fixture.ts` — May be replaced by import from shared location
+- `packages/_integration/fixtures/setup.ts` — Theme replaced by import from shared location
+- `packages/_integration/__tests__/` — Assertions updated for new theme values (breakpoints, colors, scales)
+- `packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts` — Assertions updated for unified theme (snapshot updates, hash changes)
+- Root scripts — `test:showcase` gains post-build assertion step

+## Context
+
+Color-scale-bound properties (`bg`, `color`, `borderColor`, `fill`, `stroke`) now correctly narrow to `keyof Theme['colors']` via `ThemedScaleValue`/`ScaleValue`. This is the type system working as intended. However, colors are compositionally unique — opacity variants, inline references in compound CSS values, and decorative one-offs all need to reference the palette without bypassing narrowing entirely.
+
+The Rust extraction pipeline already supports `{scale.path}` and `{scale.path/alpha}` token reference syntax in any string value. `resolve_token_aliases` scans for `{...}` patterns after scale lookup, resolving them to `var()` or `color-mix()`. Scale miss → raw passthrough → token alias resolution. This pipeline behavior is verified and requires no changes.
+
+The gap is purely at the TypeScript type level: `ThemedScaleValue` and `ScaleValue` don't accept token reference strings.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Accept `{colors.X}` and `{colors.X/alpha}` token reference syntax on color-scale properties at the type level
+- Preserve scale key narrowing and autocomplete for color properties
+- Match the Rust pipeline's existing runtime behavior with compile-time types
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Token refs on non-color scales (space, shadows, fonts) — scale keys are sufficient there
+- Raw CSS color function acceptance (rgb, rgba, hsl) — this would defeat narrowing
+- Runtime changes — the pipeline already handles this correctly
+- Narrowing token ref paths to actual theme color keys (future enhancement)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: `ColorTokenRef` as a template literal type
+
+```ts
+type ColorTokenRef = `${string}{colors.${string}}${string}`;
+```
+
+**Rationale:** This accepts `{colors.ember/40}`, `linear-gradient(..., {colors.ember})`, and `0 0 8px {colors.ember/30}` while rejecting `rgba(255,0,0,0.1)` and arbitrary strings. The `${string}` bookends allow token refs embedded in compound CSS values.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- `(string & {})` — too broad, defeats all narrowing
+- `CSSColorFn` (rgb/rgba/hsl/etc) — still bypasses the palette, Chakra v3 cautionary tale
+- Universal `TokenRef` on all scales — `{space.4}` is pointless when you can write `4`
+
+### Decision 2: Conditional activation via `Config['scale'] extends 'colors'`
+
+The `ColorTokenRef` union is added ONLY when the prop's scale is `'colors'`. Detection is simple string literal comparison in the conditional type — no metadata flags or prop config changes needed.
+
+Applied in both:
+- `ThemedScaleValue<Config>` (used in `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()`)
+- `ScaleValue<Config, T>` (used in parser props with generic T)
+
+### Decision 3: No Rust pipeline changes
+
+Verified: `resolve_value` tries scale lookup first. If the value `{colors.ember/40}` doesn't match any key in the prop's scale (e.g., `shadows`), `resolved = None`, the raw string passes through, and `resolve_token_aliases` picks up the `{...}` pattern. This is correct for both color-prop usage (scale miss on `colors` → passthrough → alias resolution) and compound values on other props.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk] Template literal is permissive within `{colors.*}`** — `{colors.typo/40}` compiles but fails at extraction time. Mitigation: Rust pipeline already emits `[alias]` diagnostics for unresolved tokens. Future enhancement: narrow to `{colors.${keyof Theme['colors']}}`.
+- **[Risk] `'colors'` scale name is hardcoded** — If a consumer names their color scale differently, they don't get token refs. Mitigation: `colors` is already a reserved name via `addColors()` — the builder API enforces it.
+- **[Trade-off] Only color-scale properties benefit** — `boxShadow` with `scale: 'shadows'` won't accept inline token refs. This is intentional: shadow values with token refs should be defined in the theme scale (as we did with `glow-ember`, `glow-fire` etc).

+## Why
+
+After type narrowing improvements, color-scale-bound properties (`bg`, `color`, `borderColor`, `fill`, `stroke`) only accept scale keys from `Theme['colors']`. This is correct for most scales, but colors are special — they compose (opacity, mixing, gradients) in ways that spacing or typography scales don't. The Rust extraction pipeline already supports `{scale.path}` and `{scale.path/alpha}` token reference syntax, resolving them to `var()` or `color-mix()`. But the TypeScript type system rejects these strings because they don't match any color scale key.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Add a `ColorTokenRef` template literal type that accepts strings containing `{colors.X}` and `{colors.X/alpha}` patterns
+- Union `ColorTokenRef` into `ThemedScaleValue` and `ScaleValue` when the prop's scale is `'colors'`
+- Type assertions for token ref acceptance on color props and rejection on non-color props
+- Revert StratumRow workaround: `bg` with token refs instead of `background` passthrough
+
+**Explicit non-changes:**
+- Does NOT add token refs to non-color scales (space, shadows, fonts, etc.)
+- Does NOT accept raw CSS color functions (rgb, rgba, hsl) — Chakra v3 opened this and it became unmanageable
+- Does NOT change the Rust pipeline — `resolve_token_aliases` already handles `{...}` on all values
+- Does NOT change runtime behavior — purely type-level
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `color-token-ref-types`: Type-level support for `{colors.X}` and `{colors.X/alpha}` token reference syntax on color-scale-bound properties
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `token-alias-syntax`: Adding type-level representation for the existing runtime token alias feature, scoped to color properties
+- `prop-system`: `ThemedScaleValue` and `ScaleValue` gain color-specific token ref branch
+
+## Impact
+
+- **system/src/types/config.ts**: `ThemedScaleValue` and `ScaleValue` types modified — adds color token ref union when scale is `'colors'`
+- **system/__tests__/types.test-d.tsx**: New type assertions for color token ref acceptance/rejection
+- **showcase/src/components/layout/StratumRow.tsx**: Revert `background` workaround to `bg` with token refs
+- **Rust pipeline**: No changes — verified that scale miss falls through to `resolve_token_aliases`
+- **Consumer API**: Purely additive — existing color scale key usage unchanged

+- **THEN** the TypeScript compiler SHALL accept it without error
+
+#### Scenario: Raw CSS color function rejected
+- **WHEN** a color-scale property value is `"rgba(255,0,0,0.1)"` and the theme has a non-empty colors scale
+- **THEN** the TypeScript compiler SHALL report a type error

+#### Scenario: Scale keys still narrowed
+- **WHEN** a theme defines `colors: { primary, ember, spark }` and a color-scale property is used
+- **THEN** the accepted type SHALL include `'primary' | 'ember' | 'spark'` with autocomplete support
+
+### Requirement: Token refs rejected on non-color scales
+Properties whose scale is NOT `'colors'` SHALL NOT accept `{colors.X}` or any token reference syntax at the type level. Scale-bound properties for space, shadows, fonts, etc. SHALL accept only their scale keys and CSS property values.
+
+#### Scenario: Space prop rejects token ref
+- **WHEN** a prop with `scale: 'space'` receives value `"{space.4}"`
+- **THEN** the TypeScript compiler SHALL report a type error
+
+#### Scenario: Shadow prop rejects inline token ref
+- **WHEN** a prop with `scale: 'shadows'` receives value `"0 0 8px {colors.ember/40}"`
+- **THEN** the TypeScript compiler SHALL report a type error (shadow values with token refs belong in the theme scale)

+## Context
+
+Both plugins discover external packages via a two-step process: (1) scan all discovered source files for import specifiers matching `packagePatterns`, (2) resolve and walk those packages. Step 1 is O(n) regex over every file — expensive and redundant now that consumers declare external DS dependencies via `.includes()` in ds.ts.
+
+The system entry file (ds.ts) is already the single topology declaration: grammar (system props), vocabulary (theme tokens), and external dependencies (`.includes()`). The plugin loads this file via subprocess at `buildStart`. Reading its import declarations is trivial and gives the complete package list.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+
+- Replace the O(n) import scan with a single-file read of ds.ts import declarations.
+- Remove the `packagePatterns` config option from both plugins.
+- Preserve the existing package resolution and file-walking logic — only the discovery source changes.
+- Maintain parity between vite-plugin and next-webpack-plugin.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+
+- OXC-based AST parsing of ds.ts (future refinement — simple regex on one file is sufficient for v1).
+- Changes to SystemBuilder, test-ds, or the Rust crate.
+- Recursive `.includes()` chain traversal across packages (deferred — workspace packages have source available).
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Discovery source: system file imports, not all-file scan
+
+**Decision:** Read the system entry file source (the `system` option path, e.g., `./src/ds.ts`), extract all non-relative import specifiers via regex, filter to external packages (skip relative imports, `react`, `@animus-ui/system`, stdlib), resolve each to a source directory, and walk.
+
+**Rationale:** The system file is already known (plugin option). Reading one file is O(1) vs O(n). The `.includes()` call forces external DS imports to appear in this file. Simple regex (`/from\s+['"]([^'"]+)['"]/g`) is sufficient for static import declarations — no AST parser needed for this scope.
+
+**Alternative considered:** OXC AST parsing of ds.ts for precise `.includes()` argument tracing. Deferred — regex on one file is cheap, reliable for the standard pattern, and doesn't require a new NAPI function.
+
+### Filter heuristic for external packages
+
+**Decision:** From the extracted import specifiers, include only those that:
+1. Are not relative (`./`, `../`)
+2. Are not the system package itself (`@animus-ui/system`, `@animus-ui/system/groups`)
+3. Are not known non-DS packages (`react`, `react-dom`, `next`, `vite`, etc.)
+4. Successfully resolve via the bundler's resolver
+
+A failed resolution silently skips the specifier (same behavior as today).
+
+**Rationale:** The system file typically imports from `@animus-ui/system`, `@animus-ui/system/groups`, and external DS packages. The filter removes known non-DS imports. Any remaining specifier that resolves to a local workspace package gets walked.
+
+### Remove `packagePatterns` option
+
+**Decision:** Remove `packagePatterns` from `AnimusExtractOptions` and the next-webpack-plugin config type. The option was internal/undocumented and only used with the default `['@animus-ui/*']`.
+
+**Rationale:** With includes-driven discovery, the explicit allowlist is unnecessary — the consumer's `.includes()` imports are the allowlist. Removing the option simplifies the config surface.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**Risk:** System file has imports not related to external DS packages (e.g., utility libs).
+-> Mitigation: Filter heuristic + failed resolution skips. Walking a small non-DS package is harmless — the Rust extractor finds no builder chains and produces no output.
+
+**Risk:** Consumer forgets `.includes()` — external packages silently not discovered.
+-> Mitigation: This is the designed behavior — explicit over implicit. The consumer must declare their external dependencies. If components don't appear in extracted CSS, the `.includes()` chain is the first thing to check.
+
+**Risk:** Regex import parsing misses edge cases (dynamic imports, template literals).
+-> Mitigation: Static imports are the expected pattern. `.includes()` forces a static import. Dynamic import of a DS system instance would be unusual and non-functional (the system needs to be statically available at build time).

+## Why
+
+Both plugins (vite-plugin, next-webpack-plugin) discover external packages by scanning the source of EVERY discovered file for imports matching `packagePatterns` (default `@animus-ui/*`). This is O(n) regex over all source files — wasteful when the consumer has already declared their external DS dependencies via `.includes()` in ds.ts. The system entry file is the single topology declaration; the plugin should read it directly instead of brute-forcing discovery from the entire file set.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Replace the package discovery phase in vite-plugin (`buildStart` step 5, lines 718-791) with system-file-driven discovery: read ds.ts source, extract non-relative import specifiers, resolve and walk only those packages.
+- Replace the equivalent `resolvePackages()` method in next-webpack-plugin with the same approach.
+- Remove the `packagePatterns` option from both plugin configs — it becomes unnecessary when discovery is driven by `.includes()` imports.
+- The package resolution and file walking logic (step 2 of the current flow — resolve specifier, find src/, walk files) is unchanged. Only the discovery source changes: from "scan all files" to "read one file."
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `includes-driven-discovery`: Plugin reads the system entry file (ds.ts), extracts import specifiers from its top-level import declarations, resolves matching packages to source directories, and walks their files. Replaces the O(n) regex scan of all source files with a single-file read.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Package discovery phase replaced. `packagePatterns` option removed.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **vite-plugin**: `AnimusExtractOptions.packagePatterns` removed. `buildStart` step 5 rewritten to parse system file imports instead of scanning all file entries. Package resolution + file walking reused as-is.
+- **next-webpack-plugin**: `resolvePackages()` method replaced with system-file import parsing. `packagePatterns` option removed from config type.
+- **No changes to**: SystemBuilder, test-ds, Rust crate, consumer apps (`.includes()` already wired in ds.ts).
+- **Breaking**: Consumers using custom `packagePatterns` would need to switch to `.includes()`. Since this option is not yet documented or used externally, this is a safe removal.

+# includes-driven-discovery
+
+Plugin discovers external packages by reading the system entry file's import declarations instead of scanning all source files.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### REQ-1: System file import extraction
+
+The plugin reads the system entry file (the `system` option path) and extracts all top-level import specifiers.
+
+**Scenarios:**
+
+- WHEN the system file contains `import { ds as testDs } from '@animus-ui/test-ds'`
+  THEN `@animus-ui/test-ds` is in the discovered specifier set
+
+- WHEN the system file contains `import { createSystem } from '@animus-ui/system'`
+  THEN `@animus-ui/system` is filtered out (it's the framework, not an external DS)
+
+- WHEN the system file contains `import { space } from '@animus-ui/system/groups'`
+  THEN `@animus-ui/system/groups` is filtered out
+
+- WHEN the system file contains `import { ds as a } from '@ds-a/core'` and `import { ds as b } from '@ds-b/core'`
+  THEN both `@ds-a/core` and `@ds-b/core` are in the discovered set
+
+### REQ-2: Package resolution and file walking
+
+For each discovered specifier, the plugin resolves it to a source directory and walks it for component files. This behavior is unchanged from the current implementation.
+
+**Scenarios:**
+
+- WHEN `@animus-ui/test-ds` is discovered
+  THEN the plugin resolves it via the bundler's resolver, finds the package root, targets `src/`, and walks for `.ts/.tsx/.js/.jsx` files excluding `.test./.spec./node_modules/dist`
+
+- WHEN a specifier fails to resolve
+  THEN the plugin silently skips it (no error thrown)
+
+### REQ-3: No all-file scan
+
+The plugin does NOT scan all discovered source files for import specifiers. Package discovery reads only the system entry file.
+
+**Scenarios:**
+
+- WHEN a component file imports from `@animus-ui/test-ds` but ds.ts does NOT import from it
+  THEN the package is NOT discovered (consumer must add `.includes()`)
+
+- WHEN ds.ts imports from `@animus-ui/test-ds` via `.includes([testDs])`
+  THEN the package IS discovered regardless of whether any other file imports from it
+
+### REQ-4: Plugin parity
+
+Both vite-plugin and next-webpack-plugin use the same discovery mechanism.

+# vite-extraction-plugin (MODIFIED)
+
+## Changed Requirements
+
+### REQ-MODIFIED: Package discovery source
+
+**Was:** Scan all discovered source file contents for imports matching `packagePatterns` glob (default `@animus-ui/*`).
+
+**Now:** Read the system entry file's import declarations. Filter to external package specifiers. Resolve and walk those packages only.
+
+### REQ-REMOVED: `packagePatterns` option
+
+The `packagePatterns` option is removed from `AnimusExtractOptions`. Discovery is driven entirely by the system entry file imports.

+- [x] 1.2 Add a known-skip list for common non-DS imports: `react`, `react-dom`, `next`, `vite`, `lodash`, etc. — these are never external DS packages

+## 2. Vite-plugin: replace package discovery

+- [x] 2.2 In `buildStart` step 5, replace the all-file regex scan (lines 718-738) with a call to `extractSystemFilePackages(resolvedSystemPath)`
+- [x] 2.3 Keep the package resolution loop (lines 740-791) unchanged — it takes specifiers and resolves/walks them. Just feed it the new specifier set instead of the regex-scanned set
+- [x] 2.4 Update the dev mode HMR path to use the same system-file-driven discovery (if applicable)
+
+## 3. Next-webpack-plugin: replace package discovery
+
+- [x] 3.1 Remove `packagePatterns` from the next-webpack-plugin config type
+- [x] 3.2 Replace `resolvePackages()` method with the same `extractSystemFilePackages()` call + resolution logic

+
+## 4. Shared helper location
+
+- [x] 4.1 Decide where `extractSystemFilePackages` lives — if both plugins import it, place in `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` (already shared). If duplicating is simpler, inline in each plugin (it's ~15 lines).
+
+## 5. Verification
+
+- [x] 5.1 `bun run verify:showcase` — showcase still discovers and extracts test-ds components via ds.ts `.includes()` import
+- [x] 5.2 `bun run verify:full` — full pipeline passes
+- [x] 5.3 Confirm that removing the `.includes()` import from ds.ts causes test-ds components to NOT be discovered (explicit-only behavior)

+## Context
+
+The `ThemeBuilder` chain (`createTheme.ts`) processes raw inputs through a destructive pipeline:
+
+1. `addColors(colors)` → `flattenScale(colors)` → `serializeTokens(flat)` → merge flat + var() refs into `#theme`
+2. `addScale({ name, values })` → `flattenScale(values)` → optional `serializeTokens` → merge flat into `#theme`
+3. `addColorModes(initialMode, config)` → `mapValues(config, flattenScale)` → merge flat aliases into `#theme`
+4. `build()` → `resolveThemeTokenRefs` mutates `_tokens` in-place → assemble manifest → attach serialize()
+
+After this pipeline, the original nested inputs are gone. The flat dash-joined key format (`gray-50`) leaks from CSS custom property naming into the internal storage, user-facing mode alias syntax, and token ref syntax. With nested storage, the internal path separator becomes `.` (dot-path), and the dash-join becomes purely a CSS serialization concern.
+
+The `SystemBuilder` follows a clean pattern: `createSystem()` takes no args, methods enforce no ordering, `.includes()` exists for composition. The component builder (`ds.styles()` → `.variant()` → `.compound()` → etc.) enforces cascade ordering via type-state narrowing. ThemeBuilder v3 adopts the type-state approach for its dependency chain.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Store raw nested inputs as the internal representation in ThemeBuilder
+- Use dot-path (`.`) as the internal/user-facing path separator; dash-join (`-`) only at CSS serialization boundary
+- Enforce builder chain ordering via type-state narrowing (breakpoints → colors → modes → scales → contextualVars)
+- Provide `.from(libTokens)` composition entry point with deep merge semantics
+- Make `createTheme()` fully additive (no constructor args)
+- Flatten only at build-time boundaries (serialize, manifest) — no mid-chain flatten needed
+- Maintain identical CSS output (same variable names, same manifest format)
+- Align terminology across both builders
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing the extraction pipeline, vite-plugin, next-plugin, or Rust crate
+- Changing the SystemBuilder API
+- Type-state enforcement on SystemBuilder (it doesn't have ordering dependencies)
+- Modifying the `Theme` module augmentation pattern
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. `createTheme()` takes no arguments; breakpoints become `.addBreakpoints()`
+
+**Decision:** `createTheme()` returns an empty `ThemeBuilder`. Breakpoints are added via `.addBreakpoints({ sm: 768, lg: 1200 })`.
+
+**Why:** Aligns with SystemBuilder's `createSystem()` pattern. Makes composition uniform — every piece of theme config enters through a method call. Breakpoints are recommended first in the chain because downstream scales may reference them, but `.from()` relaxes this for extension chains.
+
+### 2. Dot-path as the internal path separator
+
+**Decision:** All user-facing references to nested token keys use dot-path notation. The dash-join format exists only at the CSS serialization boundary.
+
+- Mode aliases: `{ dark: { muted: 'gray.50' } }` (was `'gray-50'`)
+- Token refs: `{colors.gray.50}` (was `{colors.gray-50}`)
+- manifest.tokenMap keys: `'colors.gray.50'` (was `'colors.gray-50'`)
+- CSS variable output: `--color-gray-50` (unchanged — dash is the CSS convention)
+- `LiteralPaths<T, '.'>` computes dot-path keys from nested structure
+
+**Why:** With nested storage, the natural path separator is `.` — it matches JS object access (`theme.colors.gray['50']`). The dash-join was CSS leaking into the API. Separating them eliminates the mid-chain flat-key lookup problem: `addColorModes` validates by walking the nested structure using dot-path traversal, not flat key lookup. Token refs resolve by nested path traversal. `flattenScale` is ONLY called at the serialization boundary.
+
+**Impact on CSS output:** Unchanged. `--color-gray-50` is still the emitted variable name. The dot→dash conversion happens in `flattenTheme()` at build time.
+
+### 3. Store nested inputs directly on `#theme` — no separate accumulator
+
+**Decision:** Raw nested inputs are the theme's state. `#theme.colors` holds `{ gray: { 50: '#fafafa' } }`. No `_tokens`, no `_variables`, no `#rawConfig`.
+
+**Why:** If the internal representation IS nested, there's nothing to "unpack" or accumulate separately. The theme IS the raw form.
+
+### 4. Type-state chain ordering
+
+**Decision:** The builder enforces ordering via type narrowing, matching the component builder pattern:
+
+```
+ThemeEmpty                    ← createTheme()
+  → ThemeWithBreakpoints      ← .addBreakpoints()
+    → ThemeWithColors         ← .addColors()
+      → ThemeWithModes        ← .addColorModes() (only after colors)
+        → ThemeWithScales     ← .addScale() (can ref emitted colors)
+          → ThemeComplete     ← .declareContextualVars() / .build()
+```
+
+Each method returns a narrower type. Methods from earlier phases are still available (you can call `addColors` after `addScale` — it augments). But `addColorModes` requires colors to exist (type-level enforcement).
+
+**Why:** Matches the component builder's cascade ordering philosophy. Prevents runtime errors from ordering violations (calling `addColorModes` before `addColors` currently throws at runtime — now it's a compile error).
+
+**Extension chains:** `.from(libTokens)` loads a built theme's config and advances to a state where all methods are available for augmentation.
+
+### 5. `.from(libTokens)` composition entry point
+
+**Decision:** Add a `.from()` method on ThemeBuilder that accepts a built theme and seeds the builder with its raw config. Returns a builder in "extension" state where all `add*` methods augment via deep merge.
+
+```ts
+createTheme()
+  .from(libTokens)
+  .addColors({ brand: { 500: '#custom' } })  // deep merges on top
+  .addScale({ name: 'custom', values: {...} })
+  .build()
+```
+
+**Why:** Solves the "take everything" composition problem. Spreading 8 properties into 8 method calls is verbose and fragile (library adds a 9th scale, consumer misses it). `.from()` takes everything, consumer augments selectively. Deep merge semantics match SystemBuilder's overlap tolerance on `addGroup`.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Property spreading only. Rejected after agnostic review flagged the "8 scales = 8 spread calls" ergonomic cost and the "new scale from library upgrade" fragility.
+
+### 6. Flatten at `build()` time via `flattenTheme()` internal pass
+
+**Decision:** At `build()`, a single `flattenTheme(theme, emittedScales)` pass produces all flat structures. No mid-chain flattening needed because dot-path traversal replaces flat-key lookup.
+
+**The flatten pass:**
+- Walk nested colors → produce flat tokens (dot→dash for CSS var names) + CSS variable declarations
+- Walk nested scales → produce flat scale tokens + optional CSS var declarations
+- Walk nested mode aliases → resolve dot-path aliases against nested colors → produce flat mode maps
+- Resolve token refs (`{scale.path}`) by nested traversal → substitute resolved values
+- Assemble manifest from flattened output
+
+**Why:** Dot-path eliminates the mid-chain flat-key dependency that the red team found (R1-R3). `addColorModes` no longer needs `this.#theme.colors['gray-50']` — it walks `this.#theme.colors.gray['50']` via dot-path traversal. Token ref resolution walks nested structure instead of flat lookup.
+
+### 7. Built theme shape
+
+**Decision:** The built theme exposes:
+- Enumerable: `breakpoints`, `colors`, `space`, `fontSizes`, etc. — all in original nested form
+- Enumerable: `modes`, `mode` — color mode config and initial mode key
+- Non-enumerable: `manifest`, `serialize()`, `varRef()` — boundary accessors
+
+**Why:** The enumerable surface IS the raw config. Consumers can spread it or pass it to `.from()`. Non-enumerable boundary methods handle serialization and the rare runtime var() lookup.
+
+### 8. `varRef(tokenPath)` replaces `resolve()`
+
+**Decision:** Non-enumerable `varRef(path: string): string` on the built theme. Takes a dot-path like `'colors.gray.50'` and returns `'var(--color-gray-50)'`. Returns the raw value for non-emitted scales.
+
+**Why:** Name communicates what it returns (a `var()` reference). Single-arg dot-path is consistent with manifest token path format and the dot-path-everywhere decision. Escape hatch only — no known caller in the extraction world.
+
+### 9. Terminology alignment
+
+**Decision:** Rename across both builders for consistency:
+
+| Current | New | Why |
+|---------|-----|-----|
+| `addContextualVars` | `declareContextualVars` | Phantom type annotations, not token data — `declare` captures this |
+| `updateScale` | `extendScale` | Breaks the `add*` story; "extend" matches the merge semantics |
+| `tokens.serialize()` | `tokens.serialize()` (keep) | It produces JSON strings — it IS serialization |
+| `ds.serialize()` | `ds.toConfig()` | Produces config objects, not JSON strings. Disambiguates from theme serialize |
+| `flattenScale` | Internal only | Serialization utility, not consumer API |
+| `serializeTokens` | Internal only | Serialization utility, not consumer API |
+
+### 10. Private theme fields removed
+
+**Decision:** `_variables`, `_tokens`, `_getColorValue` do not exist on the built theme. They exist only as locals within `build()`.
+
+**Why:** Implementation details that leaked onto the public shape. The pipeline accesses flat data through `manifest` and `serialize()`.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **Pre-release** — No external contract obligations. All changes are internal to the monorepo. Migration is find-and-replace across 3-4 call sites.
+
+- **Type-state adds builder complexity** — Multiple class types instead of one. But this mirrors the proven component builder pattern and prevents runtime ordering errors.
+
+- **Dot-path token ref syntax change** — `{colors.gray-50}` → `{colors.gray.50}`. The Rust crate's token ref parser needs updating to split on dot-path. This is a downstream cleanup task.
+
+- **`extendScale` callback receives nested form** — Consumer callbacks that expected flat keys need updating. Since this is pre-release, just update the call sites.
+
+- **`.from()` deep merge semantics** — Multiple `addColors` calls deep-merge. If consumer and library have the same nested key, consumer wins. This is correct (consumer intent overrides library default) but worth documenting.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+None — all resolved by the review process.

+## Why
+
+The ThemeBuilder destroys raw input shapes at storage time — `flattenScale()` collapses nested color objects into flat dash-joined key maps, `serializeTokens()` replaces values with `var()` references, and `resolveThemeTokenRefs()` mutates `_tokens` in-place. This makes theme composition impossible: a library theme is a sealed object whose original inputs cannot be recovered. The dash-join format (`gray-50`) leaks from CSS custom property naming into the internal API, creating a format that's neither the user's nested input nor standard JS path notation. The only consumers of the flattened form are `serialize()` and manifest assembly — build-time one-shots. In the extraction world, no component touches theme values at runtime.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Nested internal storage** — `addColors`, `addScale`, `addColorModes` store raw nested inputs as-is. No `flattenScale()` at storage time.
+- **Dot-path as internal separator** — All user-facing token references use `.` (dot-path): mode aliases (`'gray.50'`), token refs (`{colors.gray.50}`), manifest keys (`'colors.gray.50'`). The dash-join (`-`) exists only at the CSS serialization boundary (`--color-gray-50`).
+- **`addBreakpoints()` method** — `createTheme()` takes no arguments. Breakpoints move to a builder method.
+- **Type-state chain ordering** — Builder enforces dependency ordering via type narrowing: breakpoints → colors → modes → scales → contextualVars. Matches the component builder's cascade ordering pattern.
+- **`.from(libTokens)` composition** — New builder method seeds from a built theme with deep merge semantics. Advances type-state to extension mode where all `add*` methods augment.
+- **`varRef(tokenPath)`** — Non-enumerable escape hatch for on-demand `var()` lookup. Takes dot-path, returns `var(--dash-join-name)`.
+- **Terminology alignment** — `declareContextualVars` (was `addContextualVars`), `extendScale` (was `updateScale`), `ds.toConfig()` (was `ds.serialize()`).
+- **Supersedes theme-unpack** — The composition problem dissolves when nested IS the internal form.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `nested-theme-representation`: Theme builder stores raw nested inputs internally, uses dot-path as the internal separator, enforces type-state chain ordering, and flattens only at serialization boundaries.
+- `theme-composition`: `.from(libTokens)` composition entry point plus direct property spreading for selective composition.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `theme-variable-emission`: serialize() and manifest flatten from nested storage. CSS output uses dash-join names (unchanged). Internal paths use dot-path.
+- `system-serialization`: `tokens.serialize()` unchanged. `ds.serialize()` renamed to `ds.toConfig()` for disambiguation.
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/system/src/theme/createTheme.ts` — ThemeBuilder internals: type-state classes, nested storage, dot-path traversal, `from()`, `flattenTheme()` at build boundary
+- `packages/system/src/types/theme.ts` — Theme type shape: nested types, `LiteralPaths` with `.` separator, `EmittedScales` via type param
+- `packages/system/src/SystemBuilder.ts` — `serialize()` → `toConfig()` rename
+- `packages/system/src/index.ts` — Export changes: `flattenScale`/`serializeTokens` go internal, terminology renames
+- `packages/system/__tests__/theme.test.ts` — All snapshots update, new type-state and composition tests
+- `packages/showcase/src/ds.ts` — `createTheme()` signature, mode alias syntax dot-path, token ref syntax dot-path
+- `packages/test-ds/src/system.ts` — Same signature change
+- `packages/vite-plugin/` — `ds.serialize()` → `ds.toConfig()` call sites
+- `packages/next-plugin/` — Same rename
+- Rust crate token ref parser may need dot-path splitting update (downstream cleanup)

+- **THEN** `#theme.test` SHALL contain `{ nested: { a: '1px', b: '2px' } }`
+
+### Requirement: Nested color mode storage
+The ThemeBuilder SHALL store color mode configurations in their original nested structure. Mode aliases SHALL use dot-path notation to reference color keys.
+
+#### Scenario: Mode alias uses dot-path
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColorModes('dark', { dark: { muted: 'gray.50', primary: 'ember' } })`

+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColorModes('dark', { dark: { primary: { _: 'ember', hover: 'fire.600' } } })`
+- **THEN** the mode config SHALL preserve the nesting `{ primary: { _: 'ember', hover: 'fire.600' } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Mode alias validation walks nested colors
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColorModes('dark', { dark: { muted: 'gray.50' } })` and colors has `{ gray: { 50: '#fafafa' } }`
+- **THEN** validation SHALL pass — `gray.50` resolves to `theme.colors.gray['50']`
+
+#### Scenario: Invalid mode alias rejected
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColorModes('dark', { dark: { muted: 'nonexistent.key' } })`
+- **THEN** the builder SHALL throw an error referencing the unknown color path
+
+### Requirement: Dot-path as internal path separator

+
+### Requirement: addBreakpoints method
+`createTheme()` SHALL accept no arguments. Breakpoints SHALL be added via `.addBreakpoints()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Zero-arg construction
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme()`
+- **THEN** the builder SHALL return a ThemeBuilder in empty state
+
+#### Scenario: addBreakpoints stores breakpoints
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addBreakpoints({ sm: 768, lg: 1200 })`

+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addBreakpoints({ sm: -1 })`
+- **THEN** the builder SHALL throw an error
+
+### Requirement: Type-state chain ordering
+The ThemeBuilder SHALL enforce method ordering via type narrowing. Methods that depend on prior state SHALL only be available after their dependencies are satisfied.
+
+#### Scenario: addColorModes requires colors
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme().addBreakpoints({...}).addColorModes('dark', {...})`

+
+#### Scenario: addScale available after colors
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme().addBreakpoints({...}).addColors({...}).addScale({...})`
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL compile — `addScale` is available after colors
+
+#### Scenario: Later methods still available after earlier ones
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addScale({...}).addColors({...})` (colors after scale)
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL allow this — `addColors` augments the existing state
+
+#### Scenario: from() relaxes ordering
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme().from(libTokens).addScale({...})`
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL compile — `.from()` advances to a state where all methods are available
+
+### Requirement: Build-time flattening

+
+#### Scenario: serialize() output format unchanged
+- **WHEN** a theme equivalent to the current showcase theme is built
+- **THEN** `serialize()` SHALL produce identical `scalesJson`, `variableMapJson`, `variableCss`, and `contextualVarsJson` (modulo dot-path key format in scalesJson)
+
+### Requirement: Built theme exposes nested data
+The built theme SHALL expose raw nested config as enumerable properties and boundary methods as non-enumerable.
+
+#### Scenario: Colors are nested after build
+- **WHEN** consumer accesses `theme.colors`
+- **THEN** the value SHALL be the original nested color map
+
+#### Scenario: manifest is non-enumerable

+
+#### Scenario: varRef for non-emitted scale
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `theme.varRef('space.8')`
+- **THEN** the return value SHALL be `'0.5rem'`
+
+#### Scenario: varRef is non-enumerable
+- **WHEN** consumer spreads the theme `{ ...theme }`
+- **THEN** `varRef` SHALL NOT be in the spread result
+
+### Requirement: Private theme fields removed
+The built theme SHALL NOT expose `_variables`, `_tokens`, or `_getColorValue`.
+
+#### Scenario: _variables not on theme
+- **WHEN** consumer accesses `theme._variables`
+- **THEN** the value SHALL be `undefined`
+
+#### Scenario: Pipeline data via manifest and serialize
+- **WHEN** the plugin needs flat token maps and CSS variable blocks
+- **THEN** it SHALL access them through `theme.manifest` and `theme.serialize()`
+
+### Requirement: Terminology changes
+The ThemeBuilder SHALL use updated method names for clarity and cross-builder consistency.
+
+#### Scenario: declareContextualVars
+- **WHEN** consumer declares phantom contextual variables
+- **THEN** the method SHALL be `.declareContextualVars()` (not `addContextualVars`)
+
+#### Scenario: extendScale
+- **WHEN** consumer extends an existing scale with computed values
+- **THEN** the method SHALL be `.extendScale(key, fn)` (not `updateScale`)
+
+#### Scenario: ds.toConfig()
+- **WHEN** the system instance serializes for the plugin
+- **THEN** the method SHALL be `ds.toConfig()` (not `ds.serialize()`) to disambiguate from `tokens.serialize()`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: from() composition entry point
+The ThemeBuilder SHALL provide a `.from(builtTheme)` method that seeds the builder with a built theme's raw config and advances the type-state to allow all augmentation methods.
+
+#### Scenario: from() loads library theme
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme().from(libTokens)`
+- **THEN** the builder SHALL contain all of libTokens' breakpoints, colors, modes, and scales
+
+#### Scenario: from() enables augmentation
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme().from(libTokens).addColors({ brand: { 500: '#new' } })`
+- **THEN** the builder SHALL deep-merge the new colors on top of the library's colors
+
+#### Scenario: from() enables selective override
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme().from(libTokens).addScale({ name: 'space', values: { 0: '0', 4: '0.25rem' } })`
+- **THEN** the consumer's space scale SHALL replace the library's space scale entirely
+
+#### Scenario: from() preserves all library config
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme().from(libTokens).build()` with no augmentation
+- **THEN** `theme.serialize()` output SHALL be identical to `libTokens.serialize()` output
+
+### Requirement: Deep merge semantics on augmentation
+When `add*` methods are called after `.from()` or after a prior `add*` call for the same piece, the inputs SHALL deep-merge with consumer values taking precedence.
+
+#### Scenario: addColors deep merges
+- **WHEN** library has `{ gray: { 50: '#fafafa', 100: '#f0f0f0' } }` and consumer calls `.addColors({ gray: { 50: '#ffffff' } })`
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be `{ gray: { 50: '#ffffff', 100: '#f0f0f0' } }` — consumer wins on conflict, library preserved on non-conflict
+
+#### Scenario: addScale replaces by name
+- **WHEN** library has scale `space` and consumer adds scale `space` with different values
+- **THEN** the consumer's scale SHALL replace the library's (scale-level replacement, not deep merge of values)
+
+#### Scenario: addColorModes merges modes
+- **WHEN** library has modes `dark` and `light` and consumer adds mode `custom`
+- **THEN** the result SHALL have all three modes
+
+### Requirement: Round-trip fidelity
+A theme built from `.from(libTokens)` with no augmentation SHALL produce identical serialization output.
+
+#### Scenario: Full round-trip
+- **WHEN** consumer builds `createTheme().from(libTokens).build()`
+- **THEN** `serialize()` output SHALL match `libTokens.serialize()`
+
+### Requirement: Selective composition via spreading
+Consumers MAY also compose by spreading individual properties into builder methods as an alternative to `.from()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Spread colors only
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColors({ ...libTokens.colors })` without using `.from()`
+- **THEN** the consumer theme SHALL have only the library's colors, no other library config
+
+#### Scenario: Spread breakpoints and augment
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addBreakpoints({ ...libTokens.breakpoints, xl: 1440 })`
+- **THEN** the consumer theme SHALL have all library breakpoints plus `xl`

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: CSS variable definition emission
+The Vite plugin SHALL emit CSS custom property definitions derived from the theme's manifest. Variable definitions SHALL appear BEFORE the `@layer` declaration. CSS variable names SHALL use dash-join format regardless of internal dot-path storage.
+
+#### Scenario: Root variable definitions from nested colors
+- **WHEN** the theme has nested colors `{ gray: { 50: '#fafafa' } }` and manifest contains the flattened CSS
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `:root { --color-gray-50: #fafafa; }`
+
+#### Scenario: Mode variable definitions
+- **WHEN** the theme has color modes with dot-path aliases
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain mode blocks with dash-join variable names: `[data-color-mode="dark"] { --color-primary: ...; }`
+
+#### Scenario: All modes get explicit selectors
+- **WHEN** the theme has color modes defined via `addColorModes`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain a `[data-color-mode="X"]` block for EVERY mode
+
+#### Scenario: Variables before @layer
+- **WHEN** the extracted CSS includes both variable definitions and component CSS
+- **THEN** the variable definitions SHALL appear BEFORE the `@layer` declaration
+
+### Requirement: Theme evaluator extracts variables
+The `evaluateTheme` function SHALL return flattened scale JSON and CSS variable strings. The flat data SHALL be produced from `serialize()`, which flattens nested theme data at the serialization boundary.
+
+#### Scenario: evaluateTheme return shape
+- **WHEN** `evaluateTheme(ssrLoadModule, themePath)` is called
+- **THEN** it SHALL return `{ scalesJson, variableMapJson, variableCss, contextualVarsJson }`
+
+#### Scenario: Nested theme produces correct variable CSS
+- **WHEN** a theme stores colors nested as `{ gray: { 50: '#fafafa' } }`
+- **THEN** `variableCss` SHALL produce `--color-gray-50: #fafafa` — dot-path internally, dash-join in CSS output

+## Context
+
+The `ThemeBuilder` chain accumulates theme state across `addColors`, `addColorModes`, `addScale`, `addContextualVars`, and `updateScale` calls. At `.build()`, it resolves token refs, emits CSS variables, and attaches non-enumerable `manifest` and `serialize()` properties to the finished theme object.
+
+What the builder does NOT currently preserve is the **raw input shape**: the nested color config passed to `addColors`, the per-mode alias map passed to `addColorModes`, the per-scale values passed to `addScale`. Only flattened/resolved forms end up in the theme (`_tokens.colors` is flat, `_tokens.modes` holds resolved values, not the alias maps).
+
+The DS library → consumer app use case needs access to these raw inputs so a consumer can:
+1. Call `libTokens.unpack()` to get the typed pieces
+2. Spread them selectively into their own `createTheme()` chain
+3. Add, replace, or omit pieces without manually reproducing token values
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Expose a typed `unpack()` method on built theme objects
+- Return raw config objects that are directly spreaddable into `createTheme()` builder methods
+- Preserve the exact TypeScript shape so spread + extension infers correctly
+- Match the non-enumerable attachment pattern used by `manifest` and `serialize()`
+- Add `UnpackedTheme<T>` type and export it from the system index
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Modifying extraction, serialization, or the plugin pipeline — `unpack()` is pure DX
+- Supporting `updateScale` outputs in unpack (updateScale returns a derived state; consumers should re-derive it)
+- Deep-merging on the consumer side — spreading is the consumer's responsibility
+- Providing CSS variable values — `unpack()` returns token config, not emitted values
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Accumulate raw config in a private `_rawConfig` field on the builder
+
+**Decision:** Add a `#rawConfig` accumulator to `ThemeBuilder` that collects inputs at each `addColors`, `addColorModes`, and `addScale` call. Carry it through `#checkpoint` like `#emittedScales` and `#contextualVars`.
+
+**Why:** The existing `_tokens.*` fields hold derived/processed state (flat tokens, resolved values). Adding a separate raw accumulator keeps raw inputs orthogonal to the pipeline state. It avoids any risk of raw data interfering with token ref resolution or manifest assembly.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Read raw data back out of `_tokens.*` at build time. Rejected because `_tokens.colors` is flat (loses nesting), `_tokens.modes` holds resolved color values not alias maps, and emitting scales mix variable refs with original values.
+
+### 2. Return nested colors (not flat), alias maps for colorModes, values-only for scales
+
+**Decision:**
+- `colors` — the original nested config (e.g., `{ gray: { 50: '#fafafa', ... } }`)
+- `colorModes` — `{ default: string, modes: Record<string, ModeConfig> }` using the original unflattened alias maps
+- `scales` — `Record<name, { values: Record<string, unknown>, emit?: boolean }>` per scale
+- `breakpoints` — the original `Record<string, number>` (already stored as-is on `#theme`)
+- `contextualVars` — `Record<string, string[]>` (already assembled at build time in `_contextualVars`)
+
+**Why:** These shapes map 1:1 to the corresponding builder method arguments. A consumer can do `addColors({ ...colors, brand: { 500: '#new' } })` or `addScale({ name: 'space', ...scales.space })` without any transformation.
+
+### 3. Store the `initialMode` key alongside raw modes
+
+**Decision:** `#rawConfig.colorModes` stores `{ default: InitialMode, modes: Config }`. The `default` field records the `initialMode` argument passed to `addColorModes`.
+
+**Why:** `initialMode` is a required argument to `addColorModes`. Without it, the consumer cannot rebuild the same mode configuration. The raw modes map alone is insufficient.
+
+### 4. Non-enumerable attachment at build() time
+
+**Decision:** `unpack()` is attached via `Object.defineProperty` with `enumerable: false`, matching the `manifest` and `serialize()` pattern.
+
+**Why:** Keeps the theme JSON-serializable. The `unpack()` method is DX-only — it should not appear in `Object.keys()`, `JSON.stringify()`, or iteration.
+
+### 5. Type: `UnpackedTheme<Colors, Scales, Modes, Breakpoints>`
+
+**Decision:** Define a generic interface that mirrors the builder's type params. The built theme already carries type params from the chain. `unpack()` narrows its return type using those params.
+
+**Why:** This is what makes consumer-side TypeScript work. `const { colors } = lib.unpack()` should give `colors` the exact type passed to `addColors()`, not `Record<string, unknown>`.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **`updateScale` outputs are not unpacked** — If a library calls `updateScale` to add derived values, those additions are lost after `unpack()` + rebuild. Consumers need to know this. → Mitigation: document it clearly; updateScale is for derived computation, not token definition.
+- **Scales added with `emit: false` are still returned** — This is correct behavior; the consumer decides whether to re-emit. The `emit` flag is not stored in `#rawConfig` because the consumer's context may differ. → Mitigation: document that consumers control re-emit via their own `addScale` call.
+- **Multiple `addColors` calls merge** — If a library calls `addColors` twice, each call's raw config is merged into `#rawConfig.colors`. The consumer sees the combined shape. This is correct (it matches what the built theme exposes) but worth documenting.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- Should `contextualVars` be included in `unpack()`? They are phantom-only and may not make sense to re-declare in a consumer theme. Initial decision: include them as optional, let consumers decide. Revisit if this causes confusion.

+## Why
+
+Design system libraries need to ship reusable themes that consumers can customize — keeping the tokens they want, replacing what they don't, and adding new ones — without manually reproducing every token value. Today there is no mechanism for this: a built theme is a sealed object, and consumers who want partial customization have no safe, type-guided entry point.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **New method `unpack()` on the built theme object** — decomposes a sealed theme into typed raw config pieces (colors, scales, colorModes, breakpoints, contextualVars) that can be directly spread back into `createTheme()` builder calls.
+- **New type `UnpackedTheme<T>`** — carries the exact types of each piece so that TypeScript infers the merged shape when consumers spread and extend.
+- **Raw config storage during the builder chain** — `addColors`, `addColorModes`, and `addScale` store the original nested config (not just flattened tokens) so `unpack()` can return spreaddable inputs.
+- `unpack()` is added as a non-enumerable property on the built theme object, consistent with `manifest` and `serialize()`.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `theme-unpack`: Decompose a built theme into typed raw config pieces. Enables composition-based theme customization for the DS library → consumer app use case.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/system/src/theme/createTheme.ts` — add raw config storage and `unpack()` to `.build()`
+- `packages/system/src/types/theme.ts` — add `UnpackedTheme<T>` type
+- `packages/system/src/index.ts` — export `UnpackedTheme`
+- `packages/system/__tests__/theme.test.ts` — new unit tests for round-trip, augment, partial, and type inference cases
+- No breaking changes. Existing `manifest` and `serialize()` behavior is unchanged.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Built theme exposes unpack() method
+A built theme object SHALL expose a non-enumerable `unpack()` method that returns an `UnpackedTheme` record containing the raw config pieces used to construct the theme.
+
+#### Scenario: unpack() is present after build()
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `.build()` on a theme builder chain
+- **THEN** the resulting object has an `unpack` property that is a function
+
+#### Scenario: unpack() is non-enumerable
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `Object.keys(tokens)` or `JSON.stringify(tokens)` on a built theme
+- **THEN** `unpack` does NOT appear in the output
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: unpack() returns raw colors config
+`unpack()` SHALL return a `colors` field containing the original nested color config as passed to `addColors()`, not the flattened token map.
+
+#### Scenario: Nested color structure is preserved
+- **WHEN** a theme is built with `addColors({ gray: { 50: '#fafafa', 900: '#111' } })`
+- **THEN** `unpack().colors` equals `{ gray: { 50: '#fafafa', 900: '#111' } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple addColors calls are merged
+- **WHEN** a theme chain calls `addColors({ primary: 'blue' })` and then `addColors({ accent: 'purple' })`
+- **THEN** `unpack().colors` contains both `primary` and `accent`
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: unpack() returns raw colorModes config
+`unpack()` SHALL return a `colorModes` field containing the original mode alias maps and the default mode key.
+
+#### Scenario: colorModes shape matches addColorModes input
+- **WHEN** a theme is built with `addColorModes('dark', { dark: { bg: 'gray-900' }, light: { bg: 'gray-50' } })`
+- **THEN** `unpack().colorModes.default` equals `'dark'`
+- **THEN** `unpack().colorModes.modes` equals `{ dark: { bg: 'gray-900' }, light: { bg: 'gray-50' } }`
+
+#### Scenario: colorModes is absent when not configured
+- **WHEN** a theme is built without calling `addColorModes`
+- **THEN** `unpack().colorModes` is `undefined`
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: unpack() returns raw per-scale configs
+`unpack()` SHALL return a `scales` field containing one entry per `addScale` call, keyed by scale name, holding the original values config.
+
+#### Scenario: Scale values are present under their name
+- **WHEN** a theme is built with `addScale({ name: 'space', values: { 0: '0', 8: '0.5rem' } })`
+- **THEN** `unpack().scales.space.values` equals `{ 0: '0', 8: '0.5rem' }`
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple scales are all present
+- **WHEN** a theme is built with both `addScale({ name: 'space', ... })` and `addScale({ name: 'fontSizes', ... })`
+- **THEN** `unpack().scales` contains both `space` and `fontSizes` keys
+
+#### Scenario: scales is empty when no addScale calls were made
+- **WHEN** a theme is built without any `addScale` calls
+- **THEN** `unpack().scales` is an empty object `{}`
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: unpack() returns raw breakpoints config
+`unpack()` SHALL return a `breakpoints` field containing the original breakpoints object passed to `createTheme()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Breakpoints match createTheme input
+- **WHEN** a theme is built with `createTheme({ breakpoints: { sm: 640, md: 768, lg: 1024 } })`
+- **THEN** `unpack().breakpoints` equals `{ sm: 640, md: 768, lg: 1024 }`
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: Unpacked pieces are directly spreadable into createTheme()
+The values returned by `unpack()` SHALL be valid inputs to the corresponding `createTheme()` builder methods without transformation.
+
+#### Scenario: Round-trip rebuild produces equivalent theme structure
+- **WHEN** a theme is unpacked with `const parts = lib.unpack()`
+- **AND** a new theme is built by spreading `parts.colors` into `addColors()`, each scale into `addScale()`, and `parts.colorModes` into `addColorModes()`
+- **THEN** the rebuilt theme has the same token paths and CSS variable values as the original
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer can augment colors after spreading
+- **WHEN** a consumer does `addColors({ ...parts.colors, brand: { 500: '#custom' } })`
+- **THEN** the resulting theme has all library colors plus the new `brand-500` token
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer can omit a scale
+- **WHEN** a consumer spreads some scales but omits `fontSizes`
+- **THEN** the rebuilt theme has all other scales but no `fontSizes` tokens
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: UnpackedTheme type carries generic params
+The `UnpackedTheme` type SHALL be parameterized so that each field has the exact TypeScript type corresponding to the original builder call arguments.
+
+#### Scenario: colors field type matches addColors argument type
+- **WHEN** TypeScript infers the type of `unpack().colors`
+- **THEN** the type is the exact object shape passed to `addColors()`, not `Record<string, unknown>`
+
+#### Scenario: UnpackedTheme is exported from system index
+- **WHEN** a consumer imports from `@animus-ui/system`
+- **THEN** `UnpackedTheme` is available as a named export

+## 1. Audit Builder Chain
+
+- [ ] 1.1 Read `createTheme.ts` and map what raw config data is currently retained per builder call (addColors, addColorModes, addScale, addContextualVars)
+- [ ] 1.2 Identify the gap: confirm nested colors are not stored raw, mode alias maps are not stored raw, and scale values-only config is not stored raw
+
+## 2. Type Design
+
+- [ ] 2.1 Add `UnpackedTheme<Colors, Scales, Modes, Breakpoints>` interface to `packages/system/src/types/theme.ts`
+- [ ] 2.2 Define the `scales` field type: `Record<string, { values: Record<string | number, unknown> }>` keyed by scale name
+- [ ] 2.3 Define the `colorModes` field type: `{ default: string, modes: Record<string, unknown> } | undefined`
+- [ ] 2.4 Export `UnpackedTheme` from `packages/system/src/index.ts`
+
+## 3. Raw Config Storage
+
+- [ ] 3.1 Add `#rawConfig` private field to `ThemeBuilder` with shape `{ colors, colorModes, scales, breakpoints }`
+- [ ] 3.2 Carry `#rawConfig` through `#checkpoint` (copy forward on each builder step)
+- [ ] 3.3 In `addColors`: merge nested colors input into `#rawConfig.colors` (preserve nesting, not flat form)
+- [ ] 3.4 In `addColorModes`: store `{ default: initialMode, modes: modeConfig }` into `#rawConfig.colorModes`
+- [ ] 3.5 In `addScale`: store `{ values }` under `#rawConfig.scales[name]`
+- [ ] 3.6 In constructor: initialize `#rawConfig.breakpoints` from base theme's `breakpoints`
+
+## 4. Implement unpack()
+
+- [ ] 4.1 In `build()`, assemble the unpack payload from `#rawConfig` plus `_contextualVars` (if present)
+- [ ] 4.2 Attach `unpack()` to the built theme via `Object.defineProperty` with `enumerable: false, configurable: false, writable: false`
+- [ ] 4.3 Ensure `unpack()` return type is `UnpackedTheme<...>` with the correct generic params threaded through from the builder chain
+
+## 5. Builder Type Signature
+
+- [ ] 5.1 Update the `build()` return type in `ThemeBuilder` to include `& { unpack(): UnpackedTheme<...> }`
+- [ ] 5.2 Verify TypeScript does not widen the return type — the exact shape of colors/scales/modes must be preserved, not erased to `Record<string, unknown>`
+
+## 6. Tests — Round-Trip
+
+- [ ] 6.1 Test: build a theme with colors, scales, colorModes, and breakpoints → call `unpack()` → rebuild → assert token paths and CSS variables match the original
+- [ ] 6.2 Test: `unpack()` is not present in `Object.keys(tokens)` (non-enumerable)
+- [ ] 6.3 Test: `unpack()` is not present in `JSON.stringify(tokens)` output
+
+## 7. Tests — Consumer Patterns
+
+- [ ] 7.1 Test: unpack + augment colors — spread unpacked colors with an extra key, rebuild, verify new token appears alongside original tokens
+- [ ] 7.2 Test: unpack + partial scales — spread only a subset of scales, rebuild, verify omitted scale tokens are absent
+- [ ] 7.3 Test: unpack + mode override — spread unpacked colorModes.modes with one mode alias changed, rebuild, verify updated alias is reflected in CSS output
+
+## 8. Tests — Type Inference
+
+- [ ] 8.1 Type test: `unpack().colors` has the exact nested type passed to `addColors()` (not widened to `Record<string, unknown>`)
+- [ ] 8.2 Type test: spreading `{ ...unpack().colors, brand: { 500: '#custom' } }` into `addColors()` compiles without error and infers merged type
+
+## 9. Integration
+
+- [ ] 9.1 If `packages/showcase` or `test-ds` contains a theme definition, add a usage example demonstrating `unpack()` in a consumer context
+- [ ] 9.2 Run `bun run verify` to confirm no regressions across build, tests, and biome checks

+## Context
+
+The Rust extraction crate (`packages/extract/src/css_generator.rs`) is the sole authority for intra-layer CSS rule ordering. The current mechanism is a flat `SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES` array (18 entries) and a `css_property_cascade_key()` function that returns either the property's index in that array or `array.len() + 1` for everything else. This produces a binary classification: "known shorthand" vs "longhand."
+
+CSS shorthand relationships form a tree, not a binary. The border family alone has 3 levels: `border` → `borderTop`/`borderWidth` → `borderTopWidth`. The current flat list assigns arbitrary relative ordering to overlapping siblings at the same depth (e.g., `borderTop` at index 1 vs `borderWidth` at index 5) and collapses all leaf longhands to a single key.
+
+Post `remove-core-dependency`, the TS-side `orderPropNames` in `packages/core` is no longer in the extraction path. The Rust crate owns this entirely.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Model the CSS shorthand tree depth in the cascade sort key (3 tiers minimum)
+- Ensure overlapping sub-shorthands at the same depth get the same tier (resolved by alphabetical secondary sort)
+- Maintain the sort key as a pure function of CSS property name — no external state
+- Preserve the existing sort comparator shape (cascade_key, property_name, breakpoint, class_name)
+- Keep the failure mode safe: unknown properties → leaf tier (highest priority)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Nested `@layer` sub-layers (e.g., `@layer system.shorthand, system.longhand`) — sort key is the mechanism
+- Changes to the prop config, groups, or virtual prop expansion in `packages/system`
+- Changes to the TS-side `orderPropNames` in `packages/core` (legacy, not in extraction path)
+- Per-route CSS splitting or RSC integration (this change makes that future work safer, but doesn't implement it)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Tiered constant arrays instead of a single flat array
+
+Replace `SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES: &[&str]` with two separate arrays:
+
+```rust
+const TIER_0_SUPER_SHORTHANDS: &[&str] = &[...];  // ~10 entries
+const TIER_1_SUB_SHORTHANDS: &[&str] = &[...];    // ~13 entries
+// Tier 2 = everything else (implicit, no array needed)
+```
+
+**Rationale:** This is the simplest change that models the tree. The key function checks tier 0 first, then tier 1, then falls through to tier 2. Two arrays + fallback is easier to audit than a nested HashMap or tree structure. The arrays are small enough that linear scan is fast (benchmarking not needed for <30 entries).
+
+**Alternative considered:** A `HashMap<&str, usize>` with explicit key values per property. More flexible but harder to read and audit — you'd need to mentally reconstruct which properties are at which tier. The array approach makes tiers visually obvious.
+
+**Alternative considered:** A tree structure (enum with children). Over-engineered for what is essentially a 3-tier lookup. The CSS spec doesn't go deeper than 3 levels for any property family we support.
+
+### Decision 2: Tier key ranges with gaps
+
+```rust
+fn css_property_cascade_key(css_property: &str) -> usize {
+    // Tier 0: 0..99   (super-shorthands)
+    // Tier 1: 100..199 (sub-shorthands)
+    // Tier 2: 200+     (longhands / fallback)
+}
+```
+
+Return `tier_base + index_within_tier`. The gaps between tiers ensure tier ordering is absolute — no tier 0 property can ever have a key >= 100, no tier 1 property can ever have a key >= 200.
+
+**Rationale:** Gaps allow future insertion of intermediate tiers (e.g., tier 0.5 at range 50-99) without renumbering existing keys. The existing sort comparator doesn't care about key magnitude — only relative ordering. Within the same tier, the index provides deterministic but semantically neutral ordering (supplemented by the alphabetical secondary sort).
+
+**Alternative considered:** Simple tier * 100 + 0 (no intra-tier index). This would work since the secondary sort is alphabetical, but including the index preserves backward-compatible ordering for properties that were already correctly positioned in the old flat list.
+
+### Decision 3: camelCase and kebab-case dual matching preserved
+
+The existing function checks both camelCase (matching the array) and kebab-case (via `camel_to_kebab()`). This is preserved. The Rust crate receives CSS property names in both forms depending on the code path (prop config uses camelCase, CSS declarations use kebab-case).
+
+### Decision 4: No changes to the sort comparator
+
+The 4-level sort at lines 624-656 is unchanged:
+
+```rust
+key_a.cmp(&key_b)                                    // tier-aware cascade key
+    .then_with(|| css_prop_a.cmp(&css_prop_b))        // alphabetical
+    .then_with(|| bp_order(styles_a).cmp(&bp_order(styles_b)))  // breakpoint
+    .then_with(|| name_a.cmp(name_b))                 // class name tiebreaker
+```
+
+The cascade key just becomes more granular. The comparator consumes it identically.
+
+### Decision 5: Update stale comment, remove `core` reference
+
+The comment `// Mirrors packages/core/src/properties/orderPropNames.ts` is stale. The Rust crate is the sole authority. Update to reflect that the tiered structure is the canonical cascade ordering for the extraction pipeline.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Snapshot churn]** → Canary test snapshots will change where sub-shorthands previously had arbitrary ordering. This is expected and represents improved correctness. Mitigation: update snapshots after verifying the new ordering is correct.
+
+**[Incomplete tier enumeration]** → If a sub-shorthand is missing from tier 1, it falls to tier 2 (longhand). It gets higher cascade priority than intended — but only relative to other sub-shorthands, not relative to super-shorthands. Mitigation: audit against the full CSS spec shorthand tree. The border, grid, and background families cover the main cases. Mitigation: missing entries fail toward "too specific" which is safer than "too general."
+
+**[Parity with TS orderPropNames]** → The TS function is legacy and not in the extraction path, but if someone uses it for non-extraction purposes, behavior will diverge. Mitigation: the TS function was already less granular. No action needed unless `core` is resurrected (non-goal).
+
+**[Performance]** → Two linear scans instead of one, on arrays of ~10 and ~13 entries. Negligible. Not worth benchmarking.

+## Why
+
+The CSS shorthand tree has 3+ levels of depth (e.g., `border` → `borderTop`/`borderWidth` → `borderTopWidth` → `borderTopLeftRadius`), but our cascade sort key in the Rust extraction crate treats it as binary: either a property is in the flat `SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES` list (gets a positional index) or it's not (gets a single fallback value). This means overlapping sub-shorthands like `borderTop` and `borderWidth` receive arbitrary relative ordering, and all leaf longhands share the same cascade key regardless of their position in the tree. As we architect for RSC/streaming delivery where CSS chunks may load in unpredictable order, the intra-layer sort key is the sole mechanism guaranteeing cascade correctness — it must model the full tree.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Replace the flat `SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES` array in `packages/extract/src/css_generator.rs` with a tiered structure that encodes CSS shorthand tree depth (super-shorthands → sub-shorthands → longhands).
+- Update `css_property_cascade_key()` to return tier-aware sort keys where tier boundaries are separated by a numeric range, not adjacent indices.
+- Overlapping siblings at the same tree depth (e.g., `borderTop` and `borderWidth`) receive the same tier priority — their relative order is resolved alphabetically by property name (existing secondary sort), which is semantically correct since same-depth siblings have no inherent ordering.
+- Update the stale comment referencing `packages/core/src/properties/orderPropNames.ts` — the Rust crate is the sole cascade ordering authority post `remove-core-dependency`.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `tiered-cascade-ordering`: CSS shorthand tree-depth-aware sort key for intra-layer cascade correctness across all utility and slot class emission.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `utility-css-generation`: The "single sorted emission stream" requirement's cascade key semantics change from flat positional to tiered tree-depth. The sort comparator shape is unchanged; only the key values become more granular.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/extract/src/css_generator.rs`**: `SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES` replaced with tiered structure, `css_property_cascade_key()` updated. Sort comparator unchanged.
+- **Canary test snapshots**: Utility CSS rule ordering may shift where sub-shorthands previously had arbitrary relative positions. Snapshot updates expected and represent improved correctness.
+- **No consumer-facing API changes**: The sort key is an internal mechanism. Component authors and consumers see no behavioral difference unless they were relying on the specific (incorrect) ordering of overlapping shorthands.
+- **No changes to**: prop config, groups, virtual prop expansion, builder chain, theme evaluation, HMR bridge, or any TS packages.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Tiered cascade key function
+The `css_property_cascade_key()` function SHALL return a numeric sort key that encodes the CSS shorthand tree depth of the given property. The key SHALL place super-shorthands earliest (lowest values), sub-shorthands in the middle tier, and leaf longhands latest (highest values). Tier boundaries SHALL be separated by a numeric range (not adjacent integers) to allow future insertion of intermediate tiers without renumbering.
+
+#### Scenario: Super-shorthand properties
+- **WHEN** `css_property_cascade_key` is called with `"border"`, `"margin"`, `"padding"`, `"background"`, `"flex"`, `"gap"`, `"grid"`, `"transition"`, or `"overflow"`
+- **THEN** it SHALL return a value in the tier 0 range (lowest tier)
+
+#### Scenario: Sub-shorthand properties
+- **WHEN** `css_property_cascade_key` is called with `"borderTop"`, `"borderWidth"`, `"borderColor"`, `"borderStyle"`, `"borderRadius"`, `"gridTemplate"`, `"gridArea"`, `"gridColumn"`, or `"gridRow"`
+- **THEN** it SHALL return a value in the tier 1 range, which is strictly greater than all tier 0 values
+
+#### Scenario: Leaf longhand properties
+- **WHEN** `css_property_cascade_key` is called with `"borderTopWidth"`, `"borderTopColor"`, `"marginTop"`, `"paddingLeft"`, `"gridTemplateColumns"`, `"flexGrow"`, `"backgroundColor"`, `"color"`, `"display"`, or any property not in tier 0 or tier 1
+- **THEN** it SHALL return a value in the tier 2 range, which is strictly greater than all tier 1 values
+
+#### Scenario: Kebab-case input equivalence
+- **WHEN** `css_property_cascade_key` is called with `"border-top"` (kebab-case)
+- **THEN** it SHALL return the same value as for `"borderTop"` (camelCase)
+
+#### Scenario: Unknown properties fall to leaf tier
+- **WHEN** `css_property_cascade_key` is called with a property not enumerated in any tier (e.g., `"customProperty"`)
+- **THEN** it SHALL return a value in the leaf tier (tier 2), ensuring it has highest cascade priority (safest failure mode)
+
+### Requirement: Tier 0 — super-shorthand enumeration
+Tier 0 SHALL contain exactly the CSS properties that reset an entire property family. These are the most general shorthands. The following properties SHALL be in tier 0:
+
+| Property | CSS shorthand for |
+|----------|-------------------|
+| `border` | All border sub-properties |
+| `background` | All background sub-properties |
+| `flex` | flex-grow, flex-shrink, flex-basis |
+| `margin` | All margin sides |
+| `padding` | All padding sides |
+| `gap` | row-gap, column-gap |
+| `grid` | All grid template/auto sub-properties |
+| `transition` | All transition sub-properties |
+| `overflow` | overflow-x, overflow-y |
+| `outline` | outline-width, outline-style, outline-color |
+
+#### Scenario: Tier 0 completeness
+- **WHEN** the tiered structure is queried for all tier 0 entries
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain all CSS super-shorthands listed above and no properties that are sub-shorthands or longhands
+
+### Requirement: Tier 1 — sub-shorthand enumeration
+Tier 1 SHALL contain CSS properties that are shorthands for a subset of a family — they reset some but not all sub-properties of a tier 0 shorthand. The following properties SHALL be in tier 1:
+
+**Border family:**
+`borderTop`, `borderRight`, `borderBottom`, `borderLeft`, `borderWidth`, `borderStyle`, `borderColor`, `borderRadius`, `borderImage`
+
+**Grid family:**
+`gridTemplate`, `gridArea`, `gridColumn`, `gridRow`
+
+#### Scenario: Tier 1 completeness for border family
+- **WHEN** the tiered structure is queried for tier 1 entries in the border family
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain all directional sub-shorthands (`borderTop`, `borderRight`, `borderBottom`, `borderLeft`), all property-axis sub-shorthands (`borderWidth`, `borderStyle`, `borderColor`), and `borderRadius` and `borderImage`
+
+#### Scenario: Overlapping siblings get same tier
+- **WHEN** `css_property_cascade_key` is called with `"borderTop"` and `"borderWidth"`
+- **THEN** both SHALL return values in the tier 1 range, and their relative ordering SHALL be determined by the secondary sort (alphabetical property name), not by their cascade key
+
+### Requirement: Sort key is a pure function of CSS property name
+The cascade key function SHALL depend only on the CSS property name string. It SHALL NOT depend on prop config, component context, file path, breakpoint, or any other state. This ensures any subset of utility rules can be independently sorted and merged correctly.
+
+#### Scenario: Deterministic across calls
+- **WHEN** `css_property_cascade_key("borderTop")` is called multiple times with different surrounding context
+- **THEN** it SHALL return the same value every time
+
+#### Scenario: No external state dependency
+- **WHEN** `css_property_cascade_key` is called during initial extraction and again during HMR re-extraction
+- **THEN** it SHALL return identical values for the same property inputs

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Single sorted emission stream
+Within each `@layer` block (`system` or `custom`), all rules — static utility classes AND variable slot classes — SHALL be emitted in a single sorted stream. Sorting uses: CSS property cascade key (primary), CSS property name (secondary), breakpoint pixel value (tertiary, 0 for base/static), class name (quaternary tiebreaker).
+
+The cascade key SHALL use the tiered cascade ordering defined in the `tiered-cascade-ordering` capability. This means:
+- Super-shorthand utilities (e.g., `border`, `margin`) are emitted first within the layer
+- Sub-shorthand utilities (e.g., `borderTop`, `borderWidth`) are emitted in the middle
+- Leaf longhand utilities (e.g., `borderTopWidth`, `marginTop`) are emitted last
+
+Overlapping sub-shorthands at the same tier (e.g., `borderTop` and `borderWidth`) SHALL be ordered alphabetically by CSS property name. This is semantically neutral — same-tier siblings have no inherent cascade priority over each other.
+
+The breakpoint sort ensures per-bp slot classes appear in mobile-first order (smallest viewport first) within the same CSS property group.
+
+#### Scenario: Layer ordering
+- **WHEN** a component has base styles in `@layer base` and system prop utilities in `@layer system`
+- **THEN** the system prop utilities SHALL override the base styles when both target the same CSS property, regardless of specificity or source order outside the layers
+
+#### Scenario: Super-shorthand before sub-shorthand
+- **WHEN** a component uses both system prop `border` and system prop `borderTop`
+- **THEN** in `@layer system`, the `border` utility class SHALL appear before the `borderTop` utility class in source order, ensuring `borderTop` overrides `border`
+
+#### Scenario: Sub-shorthand before longhand
+- **WHEN** a component uses both system prop `borderWidth` and system prop `borderTopWidth`
+- **THEN** in `@layer system`, the `borderWidth` utility class SHALL appear before the `borderTopWidth` utility class in source order, ensuring `borderTopWidth` overrides `borderWidth`
+
+#### Scenario: Three-tier depth ordering
+- **WHEN** a component uses system props `border`, `borderTop`, and `borderTopWidth`
+- **THEN** in `@layer system`, the source order SHALL be: `border` utility first, `borderTop` utility second, `borderTopWidth` utility third
+
+#### Scenario: Overlapping siblings ordered alphabetically
+- **WHEN** a component uses system props `borderTop` and `borderWidth` (both tier 1)
+- **THEN** their utility classes SHALL be ordered by CSS property name alphabetically (`border-top` before `border-width`), not by an arbitrary list index
+
+#### Scenario: Radius depth chain
+- **WHEN** a component uses system props `borderRadius` and `borderTopLeftRadius`
+- **THEN** in `@layer system`, the `borderRadius` utility (tier 1 sub-shorthand) SHALL appear before `borderTopLeftRadius` utility (tier 2 longhand)
+
+#### Scenario: Margin family ordering
+- **WHEN** a component uses system props `m` (margin shorthand) and `mt` (marginTop longhand)
+- **THEN** in `@layer system`, the `margin` utility (tier 0 super-shorthand) SHALL appear before `margin-top` utility (tier 2 longhand)
+
+#### Scenario: Grid family depth ordering
+- **WHEN** a component uses system props `grid`, `gridTemplate`, and `gridTemplateColumns`
+- **THEN** in `@layer system`, the source order SHALL be: `grid` (tier 0), `grid-template` (tier 1), `grid-template-columns` (tier 2)

+## Context
+
+The root `package.json` `build:ts` script is a hand-maintained sequential `&&` chain:
+
+```
+core → theming → system → test-ds → extract:pipeline → vite-plugin → next-plugin
+```
+
+Every new package requires manually editing this string. The `compile` script has the same problem. Bun workspaces support topological ordering via `--filter` (issue #13239 fixed Jan 2025) — we should derive build order from `package.json` dependencies instead of maintaining it manually.
+
+**Key wrinkle:** The repo has a two-tier build strategy. `build:ts` is the fast path (TS only, ~5s). `build:all` includes the Rust NAPI crate (~30-60s). Extract's `build` script includes Rust compilation, but `build:ts` deliberately only runs `build:pipeline` (TS portion). The `--filter` migration must preserve this two-tier distinction.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Derive build order from dependency graph instead of hand-maintained strings
+- Preserve the fast `build:ts` / full `build:all` distinction
+- Keep all existing verification commands working identically
+- Make adding new packages require zero root script changes
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Build caching (deferred to Vite+ adoption)
+- Changing what each package builds (just changing orchestration)
+- Parallelization (bun `--filter` runs topologically, not in parallel)
+- Modifying the Rust crate build process
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Two script tiers via naming convention
+
+Each buildable package gets two optional scripts:
+- `build` — the full build (whatever that package needs, including Rust for extract)
+- `build:ts` — the TS-only build (tsdown + tsc). Packages that are TS-only can just alias this to `build`.
+
+Root scripts become:
+```json
+"build:ts": "bun run --filter './packages/*' build:ts",
+"build:all": "bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build && bun run --filter './packages/*' build:ts",
+"compile": "bun run --filter './packages/*' compile"
+```
+
+**Rationale:** `--filter` skips packages that don't have the named script. Packages without `build:ts` (like `_integration`, `_docs`) are naturally excluded. Extract's `build:ts` runs only the pipeline portion. `build:all` runs extract's full Rust build first, then all TS builds.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Exclude extract via `--filter '!@animus-ui/extract'`. Rejected — fragile, requires remembering to update the exclusion pattern for future non-TS packages.
+
+### 2. Package script standardization
+
+| Package | `build:ts` | `build` | `compile` |
+|---------|-----------|---------|-----------|
+| properties (new) | `tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json` | = build:ts | `tsc --noEmit` |
+| core | `tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json` | = build:ts | `tsc --noEmit` |
+| theming | `tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json` | = build:ts | `tsc --noEmit` |
+| system | `tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json` | = build:ts | `tsc --noEmit` |
+| extract | `tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json` (pipeline only) | `napi build... && build:ts` | add `tsc --noEmit` |
+| vite-plugin | `tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json` | = build:ts | `tsc --noEmit` |
+| next-plugin | `tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json` | = build:ts | `tsc --noEmit` |
+| test-ds | `tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json` | = build:ts | `tsc --noEmit` |
+| showcase | skip (not in pipeline) | `vite build` | `tsc --noEmit` |
+| _integration | skip | skip | skip |
+
+Packages that are TS-only: `"build:ts": "tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json", "build": "bun run build:ts"`.
+Extract: `"build:ts": "tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json", "build": "napi build --platform --release && bun run build:ts"`.
+Showcase excluded from `build:ts` filter (it's an app build, not a library build — keep as separate step).
+
+### 3. Verification script updates
+
+```json
+"verify": "bun run build:ts && bun run compile && bun test && bun run test:rust && bun run test:types && bun run check",
+"verify:full": "bun run build:all && bun test && bun run test:rust && bun run check && bun run test:showcase"
+```
+
+These stay structurally the same — `build:ts` and `build:all` just call `--filter` internally now.
+
+### 4. Showcase and next-test-app stay manual
+
+These are app builds, not library builds. They don't participate in the `--filter './packages/*' build:ts` chain. They're invoked explicitly:
+```json
+"test:showcase": "bun run --filter './packages/showcase' build && ...",
+"test:next": "bun run --filter '@animus-ui/next-test-app' build && ..."
+```
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[bun --filter ordering correctness]** → Topological ordering was buggy until Jan 2025 fix. Mitigation: verify with `--dry-run` if available, or add a CI step that asserts build order by checking dist/ timestamps.
+- **[Silent script skipping]** → If a package's `build:ts` script is missing or misspelled, `--filter` silently skips it. Mitigation: the `verify` command catches this — if a downstream package fails to build, the missing upstream build surfaces as an import error.
+- **[No caching]** → Every `bun run build:ts` rebuilds everything, even if unchanged. Accepted trade-off — caching deferred to Vite+. Build times are currently ~5s for TS-only, acceptable.

+## Why
+
+The root `build:ts` script is a hand-maintained sequential `&&` chain that must be manually updated every time a package is added or reordered. Adding `@animus-ui/properties` is the immediate trigger, but the underlying problem is that the build order is encoded as a fragile string rather than derived from the dependency graph. Bun workspaces already support topological ordering via `--filter` (fixed in Jan 2025, issue #13239) — we should use it.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Replace `build:ts` hand-maintained `&&` chain** with `bun run --filter '*' build` — bun reads `package.json` dependencies and executes in topological order automatically
+- **Replace `compile` hand-maintained `&&` chain** with equivalent `--filter` invocation for type-checking
+- **Ensure all buildable packages have consistent `build` and `compile` scripts** in their own `package.json` so `--filter` can discover and execute them
+- **Skip packages that haven't changed** is NOT in scope — caching is deferred to Vite+ adoption. This change solves ordering only.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `workspace-build-ordering`: Dependency-aware build orchestration using bun workspace topological ordering
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `build-orchestration`: Build scripts use `--filter` topological ordering instead of hand-maintained sequential chains
+- `build-verification`: Verify scripts updated to use new build orchestration
+
+## Impact
+
+- `package.json` (root) — rewrite `build:ts`, `compile`, and dependent scripts (`verify`, `verify:full`, etc.)
+- Individual package `package.json` files — ensure each has a `build` script (some may only have it via tsdown config)
+- No code changes, no API changes, no dependency changes
+- Legacy packages (`core`, `theming`, `runtime`) need `build` scripts to participate in `--filter` discovery even if they're not actively developed

+## Context
+
+The Rust extraction crate's `style_evaluator.rs` evaluates object literal expressions from the AST into JSON values. When it encounters a function expression (arrow function, function expression) or identifier, it bails with a non-static error. This is correct for style values — dynamic expressions can't be statically extracted into CSS.
+
+However, the `transform` field in `.props()` custom prop configs is a special case. The value is a runtime function that transforms prop values before applying them as CSS. The Rust crate doesn't need to evaluate the function — it just needs to **preserve the source text** so it can be emitted in the replacement JS.
+
+Custom prop transforms operate differently from group-level transforms:
+
+| | Group-level transforms | Custom prop transforms |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Scope** | Shared across components | Component-scoped |
+| **Identity** | Named (`createTransform('size', fn)`) | Anonymous (identity from component + prop) |
+| **CSS path** | `__TRANSFORM__name__VALUE__` placeholders resolved at build time | No CSS placeholders — runtime-only via CSS variables |
+| **Registry** | `transforms.size` in shared registry | None — function inlined in replacement JS |
+| **Serialization** | TS subprocess via `ds.serialize()` | Rust captures source span from AST |
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Rust captures inline function expressions from `transform` fields in `.props()` configs
+- Function body is emitted directly in the replacement JS (no shared registry)
+- Test fixture uses correct TS API (raw function, no `@ts-expect-error`)
+- Group-level transform pipeline remains completely unchanged
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Supporting identifier references to externally-defined transforms in `.props()` (use groups for shared transforms)
+- Adding `createTransform()` support to `.props()` (unnecessary — raw functions work)
+- Changing how group-level transforms are serialized or resolved
+- Evaluating transform functions at extraction time (they're runtime-only for custom props)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### D1: Source span capture for function expressions on transform fields
+
+When `eval_object_expr` processes an object property where:
+1. The key is `"transform"`
+2. The value is `ArrowFunctionExpression` or `FunctionExpression`
+
+Instead of bailing, capture the source text from the expression's span (`source[span.start..span.end]`). Return it alongside the JSON value in a new output structure.
+
+**Implementation approach:** Add a `captured_transforms` output to `eval_object_expr` — a `Vec<(String, String)>` mapping property paths to source text. The caller (process_chain's "props" stage) reads these captures and attaches them to PropConfig.
+
+**Why not modify eval_expression directly?** eval_expression returns `Result<Value, BailError>` — a captured function isn't a JSON value. Rather than changing the return type everywhere, handle function expressions as a special case in `eval_object_expr` where we have the property key context.
+
+**Scope:** Only applies when the property key is `"transform"`. All other function expression values continue to bail. This is not general-purpose function capture.
+
+### D2: Inline-only constraint — no identifier resolution
+
+Custom prop transforms in `.props()` MUST be inline function expressions:
+
+```tsx
+// VALID — function expression directly on transform field
+.props({ sizing: { property: 'flexBasis', transform: (v) => `${v}px` } })
+
+// INVALID — identifier reference, still bails
+const myTransform = (v) => `${v}px`;
+.props({ sizing: { property: 'flexBasis', transform: myTransform } })
+```
+
+**Rationale:** Identifier resolution requires scope tracking, binding maps, and cross-file following — significant complexity for a rare pattern. If a transform needs to be shared across components, it should be a named group-level transform via `createTransform()` + system groups. Custom props are component-specific by definition.
+
+This constraint also enables component-scoped identity: the transform is co-located with its usage, so the identity is unambiguously `component + prop_name`.
+
+### D3: New field on DynamicPropMeta for function source
+
+Add `transform_fn_source: Option<String>` to `DynamicPropMeta` in `transform_emitter.rs`. In the emission logic:
+
+```rust
+// Prefer inline function source over named transform reference
+if let Some(ref fn_src) = meta.transform_fn_source {
+    fields.push(format!("\"transform\":{}", fn_src));
+} else if let Some(ref tn) = meta.transform_name {
+    fields.push(format!("\"transformName\":\"{}\"", tn));
+    fields.push(format!("\"transform\":transforms.{}", tn));
+}
+```
+
+Inline transforms don't emit `transformName` — there is no name. They also don't need the runtime binding loop (`if (v.transformName) v.transform = transforms[v.transformName]`) since the function is already resolved.
+
+### D4: PropConfig gains transform_fn_source
+
+The `PropConfig` struct in `theme_resolver.rs` gains:
+
+```rust
+#[serde(default)]
+pub transform_fn_source: Option<String>,
+```
+
+This is populated in `process_chain`'s "props" stage handler after `eval_object_expr` returns captured transforms. It flows through `project_analyzer.rs` into `DynamicPropMeta.transform_fn_source`.
+
+The existing `PropConfig.transform: Option<String>` (the named transform path) continues to work for group-level configs that arrive pre-serialized from the TS subprocess.
+
+### D5: Source text must be available to eval_object_expr
+
+Currently, `eval_object_expr` receives only the `&ObjectExpression` AST node. To capture source spans, it also needs the source text. Two options:
+
+1. Pass `source: &str` to `eval_object_expr`
+2. Return spans from `eval_object_expr`, let the caller do `source[span.start..span.end]`
+
+Option 2 is cleaner — `eval_object_expr` stays source-text-agnostic, returns spans, and the caller (which already has `source`) does the extraction. Add a `captured_fn_spans` field to the return type: `Vec<(String, Span)>` where the string is the property key path.
+
+Actually — since `parse_object_from_source` in `lib.rs` already has the source text (it wraps and parses it), it can do the span-to-text conversion there.
+
+## Future: Rule-level transforms (CSSObject returns)
+
+`TransformFn` is typed to return `string | number | CSSObject`. No existing transform returns CSSObject, and the extraction pipeline doesn't handle it. But the type allows it, and the design should acknowledge the two logical modes:
+
+**Value-level transform** (current scope): config provides `property`, transform provides the CSS value. One input → one declaration.
+```tsx
+// Config: { property: 'flexBasis', transform: (v) => `${v}px` }
+// Output: flex-basis: 100px;
+```
+
+**Rule-level transform** (future): transform provides the entire declaration block. `property` is irrelevant — the transform owns the full CSS rule content. One input → N declarations.
+```tsx
+// Config: { transform: (v) => ({ paddingTop: `${v}px`, paddingBottom: `${v * 2}px` }) }
+// Output: padding-top: 8px; padding-bottom: 16px;
+```
+
+These are logically separate operations. A value transform produces a CSS value; a rule transform produces a CSS declaration block. The inline capture mechanism handles both identically — the function body is captured verbatim regardless of return type. The distinction matters downstream:
+
+- **CSS generation**: value transforms → `property: __TRANSFORM__...` placeholder at value position. Rule transforms → entire declaration block is the placeholder.
+- **Runtime (CSS variables)**: value transforms → one CSS variable per prop. Rule transforms → either inline styles or multiple CSS variables, TBD.
+- **Detection**: at capture time, we don't know which mode. The consuming layer (vite plugin subprocess or runtime) evaluates the function and branches on return type.
+
+**Not in scope for this change.** The current implementation captures the function body and emits it for value-level use. Rule-level support can be added when a concrete use case exercises CSSObject returns — the capture mechanism is already in place.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Inline-only constraint]** — Users who want `const myTransform = ...; .props({ x: { transform: myTransform } })` must instead inline the function. This is a documentation/DX concern, not a correctness issue. Shared transforms should use groups.
+- **[Source text fidelity]** — The captured function body is raw source text. If it references variables from the surrounding scope (closures), those must survive in the replacement JS context. This already works because the replacement is spliced into the same file scope.
+- **[No build-time resolution]** — Custom prop transform values are always resolved at runtime via CSS variables. Static prop values (e.g., `<Card sizing={100}>`) could theoretically be resolved at build time, but the CSS variable mechanism handles them correctly at runtime. This is a performance trade-off we accept for simplicity.
+- **[Two transform tiers]** — The system now has two distinct transform mechanisms (group-level named + custom prop inline). This is inherent complexity, but the tiers are cleanly separated by scope (shared vs component) and mechanism (registry vs inline).
+- **[CSSObject returns unhandled]** — `TransformFn` allows CSSObject returns but extraction only handles value-level (string/number). Documented above as a future rule-level transform path. No existing transform exercises this.

+## Why
+
+Custom prop transforms in `.props()` configs don't survive Rust extraction. The `style_evaluator` bails on any non-static expression — function expressions, identifiers, call expressions — so `transform: (v) => v + 'px'` is silently dropped. Consumers must write the undocumented `transform: 'size'` (string literal referencing a group-level named transform) which:
+
+1. Creates a TS type error — `Prop.transform` is typed as `TransformFn`, not a string
+2. Couples custom props to the shared group transforms registry — custom props should be self-contained
+3. Can't express component-specific transform logic that doesn't exist as a named group transform
+
+The root issue: the extraction pipeline treats custom prop transforms the same as group-level transforms (shared, named, resolved via registry). But they're fundamentally different — custom prop transforms are component-scoped, runtime-only, and don't need names.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Inline function capture**: style_evaluator captures function expression source text from `transform` fields instead of bailing. The function body is preserved as a raw source string.
+- **Direct emission**: transform_emitter emits the function body directly in the replacement JS (`"transform":(v) => v + 'px'`) instead of a registry reference (`"transform":transforms.size`).
+- **No naming required**: Custom prop transform identity is implicit from `component + prop_name`. No `createTransform()` wrapper needed. No shared registry entry.
+- **Two transform tiers**: Group-level transforms remain shared/named via `transforms` registry (unchanged). Custom prop transforms are inline/anonymous/component-scoped (new).
+- **BREAKING**: `transform: 'size'` string literal workaround no longer needed (and should be removed from fixtures)
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+_None — this extends existing extraction behavior._
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: style_evaluator must capture function expression source spans on `transform` fields, not bail on them
+- `named-transforms`: extraction must support inline anonymous transforms in `.props()` configs alongside named group transforms
+
+## Impact
+

+- `packages/extract/src/transform_emitter.rs` — emit inline function body for custom prop transforms (new field on DynamicPropMeta)
+- `packages/extract/src/project_analyzer.rs` — thread captured function source through to DynamicPropMeta
+- `packages/extract/src/lib.rs` — pass source text to style evaluator for span capture; propagate transform function source in props stage
+- `packages/extract/tests/fixtures/custom-props.tsx` — switch from `transform: 'size'` to inline function, remove `@ts-expect-error`
+- `packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts` — update assertion from `transforms.size` to inline function body
+- No API changes to `@animus-ui/system` — `Prop.transform` already accepts `TransformFn`

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Rust extraction captures inline transform functions in custom prop configs
+When the Rust `style_evaluator` encounters an inline function expression (`ArrowFunctionExpression` or `FunctionExpression`) as the value of a `transform` field in a `.props()` config object, it SHALL capture the function's source text from the AST span.

+
+#### Scenario: Inline arrow function captured
+- **WHEN** a `.props()` config contains `transform: (v) => \`${v}px\``
+- **THEN** the style evaluator SHALL capture the source text `(v) => \`${v}px\`` and associate it with the `transform` property, without bailing

+#### Scenario: Inline function expression captured

+- **THEN** the style evaluator SHALL capture the source text of the function expression and associate it with the `transform` property
+
+#### Scenario: Identifier reference still bails
+- **WHEN** a `.props()` config contains `transform: myTransform` where `myTransform` is an identifier reference
+- **THEN** the style evaluator SHALL bail on that property with "variable reference (non-static)" — identifier resolution is not supported for custom prop transforms
+
+#### Scenario: Function expression on non-transform fields still bails
+- **WHEN** a `.props()` config contains `scale: (v) => v * 2` (function on a non-transform field)
+- **THEN** the style evaluator SHALL bail on that property as before — function capture applies only to `transform` fields
+
+### Requirement: Inline transform function emitted directly in replacement JS
+When a custom prop has a captured inline transform function, the transform_emitter SHALL emit the function body directly in the `customDynamicConfig` object, without using the shared `transforms` registry.
+
+#### Scenario: Inline transform emitted in replacement
+- **WHEN** a component has `.props({ sizing: { property: 'flexBasis', transform: (v) => \`${v}px\` } })` and `sizing` has dynamic JSX usage
+- **THEN** the replacement JS SHALL contain `"transform":(v) => \`${v}px\`` in the customDynamicConfig for the `sizing` prop
+
+#### Scenario: No transformName emitted for inline transforms
+- **WHEN** a custom prop transform is an inline function (not a named group transform)
+- **THEN** the replacement JS SHALL NOT contain a `"transformName"` field for that prop — there is no name
+
+#### Scenario: Named group transforms still use registry
+- **WHEN** a group-level prop config has `transform: Some("size")` (from TS subprocess serialization)
+- **THEN** the replacement JS SHALL continue to emit `"transform":transforms.size` and `"transformName":"size"` — group transform path is unchanged

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Chain walking from terminals
+The chain walker SHALL find all `.asElement(tag)` and `.asComponent(component)` terminal calls in the AST, walk backwards through the method chain, and collect each stage's argument spans. The walker SHALL recognize TWO chain patterns:
+
+1. **Primary chains**: `animus` root followed by zero or more stages, terminated by `.asElement(tag)` or `.asComponent(component)`
+2. **Extension chains**: A component binding root (any identifier that is NOT `animus`), followed by `.extend()`, followed by zero or more stages, terminated by `.asElement(tag)` or `.asComponent(component)`
+
+The walker SHALL bail with `extractable: false` when encountering a method call that is not in the known `CHAIN_METHODS` set, not in the `BAIL_METHODS` set, and is not a recognized terminal or extension marker.
+
+#### Scenario: Walk styles-variant-asElement chain
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).variant({...}).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with `terminal: "asElement"`, `tag: "button"`, stages `styles` and `variants`, and `extends_from: None`
+
+#### Scenario: Walk extension chain
+- **WHEN** source contains `Button.extend().styles({ borderRadius: 8 }).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with `terminal: "asElement"`, `tag: "button"`, stages containing `styles`, and `extends_from: Some("Button")`
+
+#### Scenario: Walk extension chain with asComponent terminal
+- **WHEN** source contains `Link.extend().states({ active: {} }).asComponent(NextLink)`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with `terminal: "asComponent"`, `tag: "NextLink"`, stages containing `states`, and `extends_from: Some("Link")`
+
+#### Scenario: Extension chain is extractable
+- **WHEN** source contains an extension chain with statically evaluable stages
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL be marked `extractable: true` — `.extend()` on a component binding is NO LONGER a bail condition
+
+#### Scenario: Extension with non-static stages still bails
+- **WHEN** source contains `Button.extend().styles({ color: dynamicVar }).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL bail with reason "variable reference (non-static)" — same bail rules as primary chains
+
+#### Scenario: Props stage with inline transform function is extractable
+- **WHEN** source contains `.props({ sizing: { property: 'flexBasis', transform: (v) => \`${v}px\` } })`
+- **THEN** the style evaluator SHALL capture the function source text from the `transform` field and the chain SHALL be marked `extractable: true`
+
+#### Scenario: Props stage with inline transform emits function body in replacement
+- **WHEN** `.props({ sizing: { property: 'flexBasis', transform: (v) => \`${v}px\` } })` is extracted and `sizing` has dynamic JSX usage
+- **THEN** the replacement JS SHALL contain the function body directly: `"transform":(v) => \`${v}px\`` — NOT a `transforms.name` registry reference

+## 1. Rust crate: style_evaluator — transform function capture
+
+- [x] 1.1 Add `CapturedTransform` struct to `style_evaluator.rs`: `{ key: String, span: Span }` — records the property key and function expression span
+- [x] 1.2 Expand `eval_object_expr` return type from `Result<(Value, Vec<SkippedProperty>), BailError>` to `Result<(Value, Vec<SkippedProperty>, Vec<CapturedTransform>), BailError>`. Update all 5 callers (3 internal in style_evaluator, 1 in lib.rs, 1 in test helper) to destructure the third element.
+- [x] 1.3 In `eval_object_expr`'s property loop, handle ObjectExpression values directly (bypassing eval_expression) to propagate inner captures with the outer property key prepended. When recursing into a nested object, prefix inner CapturedTransform keys with the outer key + `.` separator. This ensures `{ sizing: { transform: fn } }` produces a capture keyed `"sizing.transform"`, not just `"transform"`.
+- [x] 1.4 In the same property loop, BEFORE calling eval_expression: if key == `"transform"` and value is `ArrowFunctionExpression` or `FunctionExpression`, push a CapturedTransform with the expression's span and `continue` (skip eval). All other expression types on `transform` fields fall through to normal eval (string literals still work for backward compat; identifiers still bail/skip as before).
+- [x] 1.5 Add unit tests: (a) inline arrow on transform field → captured, not bailed, rest of object evaluates normally; (b) function expression on transform field → captured; (c) identifier on transform field → still skipped; (d) arrow on non-transform field → still bails; (e) nested object with transform capture → key is prefixed correctly
+
+## 2. Rust crate: PropConfig + DynamicPropMeta — new field
+
+- [x] 2.1 Add `transform_fn_source: Option<String>` to `PropConfig` in `theme_resolver.rs` (with `#[serde(default)]`)
+- [x] 2.2 Add `transform_fn_source: Option<String>` to `DynamicPropMeta` in `project_analyzer.rs`
+
+## 3. Rust crate: lib.rs — thread captured transforms through props stage
+
+- [x] 3.1 Update `parse_object_from_source` to return captured transforms alongside the JSON value: `Result<(Value, Vec<SkippedProperty>, Vec<ResolvedCapture>), String>`. Convert captured spans to source text INSIDE this function using the wrapped source string (`wrapped[span.start..span.end]`), returning `Vec<ResolvedCapture>` (dotted key path + function text) to avoid span offset issues.
+- [x] 3.2 In the "props" stage handler of `process_chain`: after deserializing `PropConfigMap` from JSON, iterate captured transforms. For each `("propName.transform", fn_text)` entry, look up `propName` in the deserialized map and set `prop_config.transform_fn_source = Some(fn_text)`.
+- [x] 3.3 Thread `PropConfig.transform_fn_source` through to `DynamicPropMeta.transform_fn_source` at both construction sites in `project_analyzer.rs` (system dynamic props ~line 812, custom dynamic props ~line 908).
+
+## 4. Rust crate: transform_emitter — inline function emission
+
+- [x] 4.1 Update `customDynamicConfig` emission in `generate_replacement` (lines 265-268): prefer `transform_fn_source` over `transform_name`. If `transform_fn_source` is Some, emit `"transform":{fn_source}` directly. Else if `transform_name` is Some, emit existing `"transformName":"name","transform":transforms.name` path.
+- [x] 4.2 Inline transforms SHALL NOT emit `"transformName"` — no name exists. The runtime binding loop (`if (v.transformName) v.transform = transforms[v.transformName]`) naturally skips entries without `transformName`.
+- [x] 4.3 Add unit test: DynamicPropMeta with `transform_fn_source` emits inline function body in customDynamicConfig. Verify existing test for `transform_name` → `transforms.{name}` path still passes unchanged.
+
+## 5. Test fixture + canary update
+
+- [x] 5.1 Update `packages/extract/tests/fixtures/custom-props.tsx`: replace `transform: 'size'` with an inline arrow function. Remove the `@ts-expect-error` on the transform line.
+- [x] 5.2 Verify fixture type-checks cleanly: `transform` field now has a valid `TransformFn` value
+- [x] 5.3 Update canary test assertion at line ~2461: change `expect(card.replacement).toContain('transforms.size')` to assert the inline function body appears in the replacement instead
+- [x] 5.4 JSX `@ts-expect-error` comments on lines 38/40 stay — those are a separate `.props()` scale literal widening issue, not related to this change
+
+## 6. Verification
+
+- [x] 6.1 Run `cargo test --lib` — all 188 Rust unit tests pass (including new style_evaluator + transform_emitter tests)
+- [x] 6.2 Run `bun run test:canary` — all 150 canary tests pass with updated assertions
+- [x] 6.3 Run `bun test` — all 392 tests pass
+- [x] 6.4 Run `bun run verify` — full pipeline clean (pre-existing biome format issue in compound-variants.tsx is unrelated)

+## Context
+
+The Rust extraction pipeline discovers files by walking the consumer app's source tree. The vite-plugin and next-webpack-plugin both exclude `node_modules` from this walk — a correct default that prevents scanning thousands of irrelevant files. However, workspace packages and publishable DS libraries are shipped as separate packages. Components in those packages use the same Animus builder chain and reference the same token vocabulary, but the extractor never sees them.
+
+The file discovery exclusion is the only barrier. The Rust analyzer does not care where a file comes from — it parses JSX, resolves prop references, and emits CSS identically regardless of file origin. The plugin orchestrates which files are passed to the analyzer; extending discovery is entirely a plugin-layer concern.
+
+The consumer's `ds.ts` (system config + theme) remains the single source of truth. Library components are "more files" — their token refs (`bg: 'primary'`) resolve to CSS variables (`var(--color-primary)`) against the consumer's theme, not against any theme the library itself ships.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+
+- Add a cosmetic `.includes()` method on SystemBuilder that forces external DS imports into the system entry file.
+- Use OXC's existing import declaration parsing to extract external package specifiers from the system entry file.
+- Resolve each discovered package to its source directory, walk those files with the same filters as app files.
+- Pass external package files through the existing `analyzeProject` / `transform_file` path without modification.
+- Prove the end-to-end flow with a concrete `packages/test-ds` workspace package.
+- Verify extraction in both vite-plugin (showcase) and next-webpack-plugin (next-test-app).
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+
+- Plugin-level `packages` config — discovery is driven from ds.ts imports, not plugin options.
+- Loading or merging the library's own ds.ts / system config at consumer extraction time.
+- Type-level enforcement of cross-package token compatibility — module augmentation is DX sugar, not a safety contract. Unresolved tokens produce extraction warnings.
+- Supporting pre-built (dist) library files for the recursive case — source files only for v1.
+- Any change to the Rust extraction crate's analysis logic.
+- Theme merging or token augmentation — consumer theme is authoritative.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Discovery mechanism: cosmetic `.includes()` + OXC import tracing
+
+**Decision:** The consumer declares external DS dependencies via `.includes([externalDs])` on the SystemBuilder chain in ds.ts. `.includes()` is a no-op at runtime — it returns `this` without side effects. Its purpose is to centralize external DS imports in the one file the plugin already loads as its entry point.
+
+At build time, the plugin (or a new OXC pass) parses ds.ts as an AST, reads import declarations, identifies which imports correspond to `.includes()` arguments, and extracts the package specifiers. The plugin resolves each specifier to a source directory and walks it.
+
+**Rationale:** Zero configuration. The import statement IS the declaration. The consumer doesn't need to configure the plugin separately — the ds.ts file is the single topology declaration (grammar + vocabulary + external dependencies). OXC's `import_resolver` already parses import declarations; this reuses existing infrastructure.
+
+**Alternative considered:** `packages: string[]` in plugin config. Rejected — duplicates information already present in ds.ts imports, creates a second configuration surface that can drift.
+
+### Resolution strategy: require.resolve + `src/` heuristic
+
+**Decision:** Resolve each package specifier via `require.resolve('<pkg>/package.json')` to get the package root, then walk the `src/` directory if it exists, otherwise fall back to the directory containing the resolved `main` entry.
+
+**Rationale:** Workspace links make `require.resolve` reliable. Walking `src/` matches the convention used by all Animus packages and avoids compiled `dist/` files.
+
+### `.includes()` is a type-level and syntactic convenience, not a runtime feature
+
+**Decision:** The method accepts `SystemInstance[]` for type safety (you can't pass random objects), but does nothing with them. The runtime system doesn't merge, validate, or serialize included instances.
+
+**Rationale:** The plugin doesn't need runtime access to included DS instances. It needs to know WHICH packages to walk — and the import specifier provides that. Keeping `.includes()` cosmetic means zero runtime overhead and no serialization complexity.
+
+### Unresolved tokens are extraction warnings, not type errors
+
+**Decision:** When the extractor encounters a token ref (e.g., `bg: 'accent'`) that doesn't exist in the consumer's theme, it emits a build warning attributing the gap to the source file and package. No special type-level enforcement.
+
+**Rationale:** Module augmentation is additive — library augmentations make library tokens globally valid in the consumer's compilation, defeating the constraint. Build-time extraction warnings are more reliable. Consumers get the tools; if they misconfigure their theme, the warning tells them exactly what's missing.
+
+### Library ships components + reference theme; system is library-dev-only
+
+**Decision:** `test-ds` exports components and a reference theme. The library's system config is not exported and is not loaded by the consumer's plugin.
+
+**Rationale:** The consumer's theme is the extraction authority. The reference theme gives consumers a starting point for composing their own theme (future `unpack()` work) but plays no role in extraction.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**Risk:** OXC import tracing can't handle all binding patterns (namespace imports, destructured locals, intermediate variables).
+-> Mitigation: For v1, support the simple named-import case: `import { system } from '@pkg'`. Document the supported pattern. Exotic binding patterns are edge cases — the no-op method signature guides consumers toward the simple pattern.
+
+**Risk:** Package `src/` directory convention not followed by third-party libraries.
+-> Mitigation: `.includes()` is used with known-Animus packages. Third-party library authors who want inclusion must follow source-shipping conventions. Document this expectation.
+
+**Risk:** Consumer theme missing tokens that library components reference.
+-> Mitigation: Missing tokens produce extraction warnings with file + package attribution. No silent failures — the consumer knows exactly what's missing.
+
+**Risk:** Recursive case (library A includes library B) doesn't work with compiled dist/ files.
+-> Mitigation: v1 scope is workspace packages (source available). Published library chains are a follow-on concern. The cosmetic `.includes()` pattern still forces the import, so the specifier is always discoverable even if recursive walking requires source.

+## Why
+
+The extraction pipeline currently discovers files only within the consumer app's own source tree, excluding node_modules entirely. This prevents Animus from serving the library-to-consumer use case — the primary adoption path for design systems — where components ship from a separate workspace package and must have their styles extracted against the consumer's theme.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- New cosmetic `.includes()` method on SystemBuilder: a no-op at runtime that returns `this`. Its sole purpose is to force the consumer to import external DS instances in `ds.ts`, making those import declarations visible to OXC.
+- OXC-based import tracing in the plugin: at build time, the plugin reads the system entry file's AST, extracts import specifiers from packages referenced in `.includes()`, resolves those packages to source directories, and walks their files alongside app files.
+- External package files are passed to the Rust `analyzeProject`/`transform_file` pipeline identically to app files — no special-casing.
+- New `packages/test-ds` workspace package: 3-4 components (Button, Card, Badge, Alert) built with the Animus builder chain, plus a reference theme (not consumed by the plugin).
+- Consumer theme remains the single source of truth — the library's own ds instance is never loaded by the consumer's plugin.
+- Both showcase and next-test-app gain test-ds components, proving extraction works end-to-end.
+
+## Consumer API
+
+```typescript
+// Consumer's ds.ts
+import { system as coreSystem } from '@my-ds/core';
+
+const { system: ds } = createSystem()
+  .addGroup('space', space)
+  .addGroup('layout', layout)
+  .includes([coreSystem])   // cosmetic — forces the import, OXC reads it
+  .build();
+```
+
+No plugin configuration needed. The plugin reads ds.ts, sees the `@my-ds/core` import, resolves the package, walks its source files.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `external-package-file-discovery`: OXC traces import declarations from the system entry file to discover external packages. Plugin resolves those packages to source paths and includes their files in the extraction walk. Token refs in library components resolve against the consumer's theme CSS variables.
+- `system-builder-includes`: Cosmetic `.includes()` method on SystemBuilder — no-op at runtime, exists to centralize external DS declarations in the system entry file.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: File discovery extended to include OXC-traced external packages from the system entry file.
+- `next-webpack-plugin`: Same file discovery extension mirrored.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **system**: SystemBuilder gains `.includes()` method (no-op, returns `this`). Type signature accepts `SystemInstance[]`.
+- **extract (Rust crate)**: No changes. OXC `import_resolver` already parses import declarations; plugin reads these to get package specifiers.
+- **vite-plugin**: `buildStart` reads system file AST for external package imports, resolves and walks them.
+- **next-webpack-plugin**: Same discovery logic mirrored.
+- **packages/test-ds**: New workspace package — added to bun workspaces, tsdown build, exports components + reference theme.
+- **showcase**: Adds `@animus-ui/test-ds` dependency, uses `.includes()` in ds.ts.
+- **next-test-app**: Adds `@animus-ui/test-ds` dependency, uses `.includes()` in ds.ts.
+- No breaking changes — `.includes()` is additive and optional.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Plugin resolves external packages to source directories
+When `.includes()` declares external packages, the plugin SHALL resolve each package specifier via the bundler's resolver to obtain the dist entry path, walk up to the package root (directory containing `package.json`), then target `src/` if present. If `src/` does not exist, the plugin falls back to the dist entry directory.
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace package with src/ directory
+- **WHEN** `.includes([testDs])` references `@animus-ui/test-ds` and the resolved package root contains `src/`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL walk `<pkg-root>/src/` for source files and redirect module resolution to `src/index.ts`
+
+#### Scenario: Package without src/ directory (npm-installed)
+- **WHEN** a discovered package resolves to a root without a `src/` directory
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL fall back to the dist entry, add it to file entries, and exempt the dist directory from extension and node_modules filters
+
+#### Scenario: Unresolvable package name
+- **WHEN** a specifier discovered from `.includes()` cannot be resolved via the bundler's resolver
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL silently skip that package — extraction continues with remaining packages and app files
+
+### Requirement: External package files use identical file filters
+Files discovered from external packages SHALL apply the same inclusion and exclusion filters as app source files: include `.ts` and `.tsx` extensions, exclude files matching `.test.`, `.spec.`, and any `node_modules` subdirectory within the package.
+
+#### Scenario: Test files excluded from external package
+- **WHEN** an external package's `src/` directory contains `Button.test.tsx`
+- **THEN** that file SHALL NOT be included in the file entries passed to the Rust analyzer
+
+#### Scenario: Source files included from external package
+- **WHEN** an external package's `src/` directory contains `Button.tsx` and `Card.tsx`
+- **THEN** both files SHALL be included in the file entries passed to `analyzeProject()`
+
+### Requirement: External package files processed identically to app files
+File entries from external packages SHALL be passed to `analyzeProject()` and `transform_file()` in the same array as app source file entries, with no special-casing or different treatment by the Rust layer.
+
+#### Scenario: External and app files in same analyzeProject call
+- **WHEN** the app has 50 source files and test-ds has 10 source files
+- **THEN** `analyzeProject()` SHALL receive 60 file entries in a single call
+
+#### Scenario: Token refs in library components resolve against consumer theme
+- **WHEN** a library component uses `bg: 'primary'` and the consumer's theme defines `--color-primary`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS for that component SHALL contain `background: var(--color-primary)`
+
+### Requirement: Consumer system config remains singular authority
+The plugin SHALL NOT load, parse, or merge any `ds.ts` or system config found within external package directories. Only the consumer's configured `system` path is loaded via subprocess.
+
+#### Scenario: Library ds.ts is ignored
+- **WHEN** an external package contains `src/system.ts` exporting a SystemInstance
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL include that file in file entries for extraction only if it contains analyzable component code — it SHALL NOT load it as a system config

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Plugin factory function
+The plugin factory SHALL accept a `system` option pointing to the module that exports the SystemInstance. Additionally, it SHALL accept optional `targets` (browserslist query string or array), `minify` (boolean), `strict` (boolean), `prefix` (string), and `layers` (string array) options. External package discovery is driven by `.includes()` calls in the system file — no explicit `packages` option is needed.
+
+#### Scenario: System instance path
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL load that module via a single bun subprocess to obtain tokens, prop config, group registry, and transforms
+
+#### Scenario: External packages discovered from .includes()
+- **WHEN** the system file contains `.includes([testDs])` with `import { ds as testDs } from '@animus-ui/test-ds'`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL discover `@animus-ui/test-ds` from the `.includes()` call, resolve it, and include its source files in extraction
+
+#### Scenario: No .includes() means no external packages
+- **WHEN** the system file has no `.includes()` call
+- **THEN** no external packages are discovered — only app source files are extracted
+
+### Requirement: External package module resolution redirect
+For discovered external packages with a `src/index.ts`, the plugin SHALL redirect module resolution so the bundler serves source files instead of dist files. This ensures the transform hook processes `.ts` source (with builder chains) rather than `.mjs` dist (which fails extension filters).
+
+#### Scenario: Vite resolveId redirect
+- **WHEN** `@animus-ui/test-ds` has `src/index.ts` and the Vite dev server or build resolves the specifier
+- **THEN** the plugin's `resolveId` hook returns the absolute path to `src/index.ts`
+
+#### Scenario: Webpack NormalModuleReplacement redirect
+- **WHEN** `@animus-ui/test-ds` has `src/index.ts` and webpack resolves the specifier
+- **THEN** the `NormalModuleReplacementPlugin` `beforeResolve` hook rewrites the request to `src/index.ts`
+
+#### Scenario: No src/ — no redirect
+- **WHEN** a discovered package does NOT have `src/` (npm-installed, dist only)
+- **THEN** no redirect occurs — the bundler resolves to dist normally
+
+### Requirement: External package transform/loader exemption
+Files under discovered external package directories SHALL bypass extension filters and node_modules exclusion in the transform hook (Vite) and loader rule (Next/webpack). The manifest check is the authoritative gatekeeper.
+
+#### Scenario: Vite transform processes external package files
+- **WHEN** a file's path starts with an external package directory prefix
+- **THEN** the transform hook skips the `\.[jt]sx?$` extension check and the `node_modules` guard — the manifest check alone determines whether to transform
+
+#### Scenario: Webpack loader processes external package files
+- **WHEN** a file's path starts with an external package directory prefix
+- **THEN** the loader's `test` function accepts `.mjs` files and the `exclude` function allows files inside `node_modules`
+
+#### Scenario: Non-external node_modules still excluded
+- **WHEN** a file is in `node_modules` but NOT under any external package directory
+- **THEN** the standard `node_modules` exclusion applies
+
+### Requirement: External package HMR in dev mode
+In dev mode, edits to workspace-linked external package files SHALL trigger the HMR handler. The `node_modules` exclude pattern in the HMR handler SHALL be bypassed for files under external package directories.
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace-linked package file change triggers HMR
+- **WHEN** a file in a workspace-linked external package changes during dev
+- **THEN** the HMR handler SHALL process it: content-hash check, re-analysis, module invalidation
+
+#### Scenario: Non-external node_modules changes still excluded

+## Context
+
+Showcase (`packages/showcase/`) proves Vite extraction end-to-end: 22 components, 8 color modes, zero Emotion runtime. It exercises every extraction behavior. But it's Vite-specific — `animusExtract()` plugin, `virtual:animus/styles.css`, Vite's dev server HMR.
+
+The `next-webpack-plugin` needs its own proof. The test app must be minimal (fast CI builds) but cover enough extraction behaviors to catch real bugs. It must exercise both rendering models Next.js offers: App Router (RSC) and Pages Router (SSR).
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Verify extraction pipeline works through webpack (not Vite)
+- Cover both App Router (server + client components) and Pages Router in one app
+- Exercise the behavioral taxonomy: base, variants, states, system props, composition, transforms
+- Provide post-build assertions runnable in CI
+- Stay minimal — build time under 30s, ~6-8 components
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Visual design or design system showcase (this is a test fixture)
+- Multiple color modes (1 mode is sufficient to prove token resolution)
+- Complex typography, animations, or decorative components
+- Performance benchmarking
+- E2E browser testing (post-build grep assertions are sufficient initially)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Single app, dual router
+
+**Decision:** One Next.js app with both `app/` and `pages/` directories.
+
+**Rationale:** Next.js supports this natively. The webpack plugin runs identically for both routers — same `analyzeProject()` call, same `transformFile()` per source file. The difference is rendering model:
+- `app/` components are RSC by default (server-rendered, no hydration unless `"use client"`)
+- `pages/` components use getServerSideProps/getStaticProps (SSR + hydration)
+
+Testing both in one app proves the plugin doesn't break either model. One `next build` exercises everything.
+
+### 2. Theme: minimal but real
+
+**Decision:** 3 scales (colors, space, fontSizes) + 1 color mode + breakpoints. Enough to verify scale resolution, CSS variable emission, and responsive extraction.
+
+No `addContextualVars` (tested in integration suite already). No custom `addScale({ emit: true })` beyond colors. Keeps the fixture focused.
+
+### 3. Component fixtures by behavior, not by visual role
+
+**Decision:** Each component targets a specific extraction behavior, named accordingly.
+
+| Component | Behavior tested | Builder chain |
+|-----------|----------------|---------------|
+| `Box` | Base styles + system props | `.styles().system({ space: true, layout: true }).asElement('div')` |
+| `Button` | Variants + states | `.styles().variant(size, intent).states(hover, disabled).asElement('button')` |
+| `Card` | Transforms | `.styles().variant(elevation: size transform).asElement('div')` |
+| `Stack` | Responsive system props | `.styles().system({ space: true }).asElement('div')` with responsive JSX |
+| `Badge` | Compound variants | `.styles().variant(size, intent).compound(...).asElement('span')` |
+| `Family` | Composition | `compose({ Root, Child }, { shared: { size: true } })` |
+
+6 components covering 7 behaviors: base, variants, states, system props, composition, compounds, transforms.
+
+### 4. Page structure
+
+```
+app/
+  layout.tsx          — Root layout, imports .animus/styles.css
+  page.tsx            — RSC page: renders Box, Button, Card, Stack (server component, no "use client")
+  client/
+    page.tsx          — Client page: "use client", interactive variant toggling via useState
+
+pages/
+  legacy.tsx          — Pages Router page: renders same components, proves SSR extraction
+  _app.tsx            — Custom App, imports .animus/styles.css
+```
+
+**Shared imports:** Button and Box used by both `app/page.tsx` and `pages/legacy.tsx`. If extraction produces inconsistent class names or missing CSS for either router, the build or assertions catch it.
+
+### 5. Post-build assertions
+
+Shell script matching showcase's `assert-showcase.sh` pattern:
+
+```bash
+# CSS output contains @layer declarations
+grep -q '@layer base' .next/static/css/*.css
+grep -q '@layer variants' .next/static/css/*.css
+
+# Class names follow animus- pattern
+grep -rq 'animus-' .next/server/**/*.html || grep -rq 'animus-' .next/static/**/*.js
+
+# No Emotion runtime leaked
+! grep -rq '@emotion' .next/static/**/*.js
+
+# No unresolved transform placeholders
+! grep -rq '__TRANSFORM__' .next/static/css/*.css
+
+# Both routers rendered
+test -d .next/server/app
+test -f .next/server/pages/legacy.html
+```
+
+Exact paths depend on Next.js build output structure — will be refined during implementation.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Next.js CSS output paths]** → Next.js's `.next/` output structure varies between versions. Assertion paths may need adjustment. **Mitigation:** Use `find` + `grep` instead of hardcoded paths.
+
+**[Dual-router CSS deduplication]** → If both routers import the same CSS file, Next.js should deduplicate. If it doesn't, the CSS may be emitted twice. **Mitigation:** Acceptable for a test fixture. Monitor bundle size but don't optimize.
+
+**[Dependency on next-webpack-plugin]** → This app can't build until the plugin exists. **Mitigation:** Tasks are ordered: plugin first, then test app. The app proposal is scaffolded now so implementation can begin as soon as the plugin lands.

+## Why
+
+The `next-webpack-plugin` change needs an integration proof — a real Next.js application that builds and renders using the extraction pipeline through webpack. Showcase serves this role for Vite but can't validate webpack, App Router RSC, Pages Router SSR, or the multi-compiler lifecycle. Without a test app, the plugin is untestable until a consumer adopts it.
+
+Next.js uniquely supports both `app/` (App Router, RSC by default) and `pages/` (Pages Router) in the same project. A single test app can exercise both rendering models, proving extraction works across server components, client components, and traditional SSR pages.
+
+## What Changes
+
+### 1. New Package: `packages/next-test-app/`
+
+Minimal Next.js application — not a design showcase but a pipeline verification fixture. Private package, not published.
+
+**Design system** (`src/ds.ts`): Shared `createSystem()` + `createTheme()` with ~3 scales (colors, space, fontSizes), 1 color mode (dark/light), basic reset via `withGlobalStyles`. Reuses patterns from showcase but stripped to minimum viable config.
+
+**Components** (6-8 total, covering behavioral taxonomy):
+- **Base styles** — simple box/container with `.styles()` only
+- **Variants** — button with size + intent variants
+- **States** — toggle with hover/disabled states
+- **System props** — layout box with `.system({ space: true, layout: true })`
+- **Composition** — `compose()` family with Root + Child slots sharing a variant
+- **Transforms** — component using a named transform (e.g., `size`)
+
+**App Router pages** (`app/`):
+- RSC page — server component importing extracted components directly (no `"use client"`)
+- Client page — `"use client"` component with interactive variant toggling (useState)
+- Root layout — imports `.animus/styles.css` (or `virtual:animus/styles.css` depending on plugin)
+
+**Pages Router page** (`pages/`):
+- One page importing shared extracted components, proving traditional SSR extraction works
+- `_app.tsx` imports the CSS stylesheet
+
+**Shared component** — at least one component imported by both App Router and Pages Router pages, proving cross-router extraction produces consistent output.
+
+### 2. Post-Build Assertions
+
+Shell script (like `scripts/assert-showcase.sh`) that greps the build output for:
+- `@layer` declarations present in CSS output
+- `animus-` class name pattern in HTML
+- No `@emotion` imports in JS bundles
+- No `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders in CSS output
+- Both App Router and Pages Router pages rendered
+
+### 3. Verification Command
+
+Root-level script: `bun run test:next` (or similar) that builds the Next.js app and runs assertions.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `next-test-app-structure`: Package layout, Next.js config with withAnimus, dual-router directory structure
+- `next-test-app-fixtures`: Component fixtures covering extraction behavioral taxonomy
+- `next-test-app-assertions`: Post-build validation of extraction output
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+(none — this is a new test fixture, no existing specs change)
+
+## Impact
+
+- **New package:** `packages/next-test-app/` — Next.js app, private, not published
+- **Root `package.json`:** Add to workspaces array
+- **Root scripts:** Add `test:next` verification command
+- **Dependencies:** `next`, `react`, `react-dom`, `@animus-ui/system`, `@animus-ui/next-plugin`
+- **No changes to:** any existing packages, extraction pipeline, type system, or test infrastructure

+## Context
+
+The extraction pipeline is bundler-agnostic at the Rust boundary. `analyzeProject()` accepts file entries + serialized config and returns a JSON manifest. `transformFile()` accepts source + manifest and returns transformed code. Neither function knows about Vite, webpack, or any bundler.
+
+The Vite plugin (`packages/vite-plugin/`) is the only host today. It handles: subprocess-based system loading, file discovery, virtual module CSS delivery, per-file transform, and HMR. The Next.js plugin needs the same pipeline with webpack-native lifecycle hooks.
+
+**Current constraint:** `transform_emitter.rs` hardcodes `'@animus-ui/system'` as the runtime import source and `'virtual:animus/styles.css'` as the CSS module ID. These must be configurable before any non-Vite host can work.
+
+**Current constraint:** Subprocess model calls `execSync('bun run ...')`. Next.js projects may not have bun installed.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Next.js App Router and Pages Router support via webpack plugin + loader
+- Same extraction quality as Vite — identical NAPI calls, identical CSS output
+- Consumer API: `withAnimus({ system: './src/ds.ts' })` — one function, one option
+- Dev HMR with incremental re-analysis
+- Runtime-agnostic subprocess (bun preferred, node fallback)
+- EmitterConfig prerequisite lands in Rust, benefiting both hosts
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Turbopack support (no plugin API exists — explicitly deferred)
+- React 19 ref-as-prop migration (separate concern, `forwardRef` + `"use client"` works today)
+- Shared utilities extraction into a separate internal package (can duplicate initially, refactor later)
+- Runtime package cleanup (separate change)
+- SSR streaming CSS injection (Next.js handles CSS delivery via its internal pipeline)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Disk file vs virtual module for CSS delivery
+
+**Decision:** Write resolved CSS to `.animus/styles.css` on disk.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- `webpack-virtual-modules` — patches webpack's in-memory filesystem. Works well but adds a dependency and complexity around Next's multi-compiler (each compiler instance needs its own VirtualModulesPlugin).
+- `compilation.emitAsset()` (StyleX pattern) — injects CSS as a compilation asset. Doesn't participate in the module graph, so `import './animus/styles.css'` won't resolve. Requires manual `<link>` tag injection.
+
+**Rationale:** A real file on disk is the simplest integration point. Next.js's CSS pipeline (css-loader + mini-css-extract-plugin) processes it like any other `.css` file. No virtual module plumbing, no multi-compiler coordination for CSS content. The file is written once by the plugin, imported by the consumer in `layout.tsx` or `_app.tsx`. `.animus/` directory is gitignored.
+
+**Trade-off:** Disk I/O on every analysis run. Mitigated by content-hash check — only write when CSS content changes.
+
+### 2. Module-scope singleton for plugin→loader data passing
+
+**Decision:** Module-level singleton holds analysis result. Plugin writes, loader reads.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- Loader options with function reference — technically works but circumvents webpack 5's schema validation.
+- `compilation.hooks` in-context data — requires the loader to access compilation internals, fragile.
+
+**Rationale:** This is the established pattern (vanilla-extract, StyleX). The plugin and loader are `require()`d into the same Node.js process. The singleton survives across Next's 3 compiler passes, which is actually desirable — analysis runs once, all compilers share the result.
+
+### 3. Analysis timing: once globally, not per-compiler
+
+**Decision:** Module-level promise mutex. First compiler pass triggers analysis. Subsequent passes await the same promise.
+
+```
+const analysisPromise: Promise<Manifest> | null = null;
+
+function getOrRunAnalysis(options): Promise<Manifest> {
+  if (!analysisPromise) {
+    analysisPromise = runAnalysis(options);
+  }
+  return analysisPromise;
+}
+```
+
+Next.js calls `webpack(config, { isServer, nextRuntime })` three times: server-nodejs, server-edge, client. Each gets a fresh `compiler` instance. The analysis result is identical for all three — running it 3x wastes 3x the time.
+
+**Trade-off:** If server and client need different emitter configs (e.g., different runtime imports), the singleton must store multiple configs keyed by target. For now, a single config suffices — the emitted `createComponent` import is the same across server and client.
+
+### 4. Subprocess runtime detection
+
+**Decision:** Check for `bun` in PATH. If available, use `bun run`. Otherwise, use `node` with a CJS script that `require()`s the system module.
+
+The subprocess scripts are already CJS-compatible (`require()` + `JSON.stringify` + `fs.writeFileSync`). The only bun-specific part is the `bun run` invocation itself. Replacing with `node` is a single-line change per subprocess call.
+
+**Implementation:** Shared utility function `execSubprocess(script, args, cwd)` that detects runtime once at plugin init and reuses the decision.
+
+### 5. EmitterConfig threading
+
+**Decision:** Add `emitter_config_json: Option<String>` parameter to `analyze_project()` NAPI function. The config is stored in the manifest JSON and consumed by `transform_file()`.
+
+**Rationale:** The emitter config is a build-host concern, not a per-file concern. It's set once at analysis time and applied uniformly to all file transforms. Threading it through the manifest avoids adding parameters to `transform_file()`.
+
+**Vite backward compatibility:** When `emitter_config_json` is `None`, the Rust crate uses hardcoded defaults (`@animus-ui/system`, `virtual:animus/styles.css`). Existing Vite plugin code continues to work without changes until it opts into explicit config.
+
+### 6. Loader placement in webpack rule chain
+
+**Decision:** The Animus loader runs AFTER Babel/SWC (Next.js default loaders) in the rule chain. It processes already-transpiled JS/TS, not raw source.
+
+**Wait — correction:** The loader must run BEFORE Babel/SWC, because it needs to see the original builder chain syntax (`.styles().variant().asElement()`). After Babel, the chain may be transformed.
+
+Actually: `transformFile()` uses OXC to re-parse and find chains by binding name, then replaces spans. It works on the ORIGINAL source, not transpiled output. So the loader must see the original `.tsx` source.
+
+**Decision (revised):** Loader runs BEFORE Next.js default loaders. In webpack rule config, it's added as a pre-loader or with `enforce: 'pre'`.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Multi-compiler CSS timing]** → The plugin writes CSS to disk during the first compiler pass. If a subsequent compiler pass runs concurrently and the consumer imports the CSS file, it must exist on disk before that import is resolved. **Mitigation:** The promise mutex ensures analysis (and CSS write) completes before any compiler pass proceeds to module resolution.
+
+**[Disk write in CI]** → Writing `.animus/styles.css` to the project directory may cause issues in read-only CI environments or when the source directory is mounted read-only. **Mitigation:** Document that `.animus/` must be writable. Add `.animus/` to `.gitignore` template. Consider falling back to `node_modules/.cache/animus/` if `.animus/` is not writable.
+
+**[Loader ordering with other plugins]** → If the project uses other source-transforming webpack plugins (e.g., `next-intl`, `next-mdx`), the Animus loader must run before them to see unmodified source. **Mitigation:** Use `enforce: 'pre'` to ensure early execution. Document loader ordering requirements.
+
+**[Node.js subprocess fallback performance]** → `node` subprocess startup is slower than `bun` (~200ms vs ~30ms). For large projects with many global style blocks, this adds up. **Mitigation:** The subprocess runs once per build (or geological reset). The ~170ms difference is negligible relative to total build time.
+
+**[OXC version coupling]** → The Rust crate pins OXC at 0.121.0. If Next.js source uses syntax from a newer TS/JS version that OXC 0.121.0 doesn't support, chain detection may fail silently. **Mitigation:** OXC 0.121.0 supports all stable TypeScript 5.x syntax. Document the supported syntax level.

+## Why
+
+Next.js is the dominant React framework. Without webpack integration, Animus is limited to Vite-based projects. The extraction pipeline is already bundler-agnostic at the Rust boundary — `analyzeProject()` and `transformFile()` know nothing about Vite. The missing piece is a host that wires these functions into webpack's plugin/loader lifecycle. Turbopack has no plugin API, so webpack is the only viable integration path for Next.js today.
+
+## What Changes
+
+### 1. EmitterConfig — Configurable Paths in Rust
+
+`transform_emitter.rs` hardcodes `'@animus-ui/system'` (runtime import) and `'virtual:animus/styles.css'` (CSS module ID). The Next.js plugin needs to emit a real file path (`.animus/styles.css`) instead of a Vite virtual module. Add `EmitterConfig` struct with `runtime_import` and `css_module_id` fields, threaded through `analyze_project()` and `transform_file()` via the manifest JSON. Vite plugin gets backward-compatible defaults.
+
+### 2. Runtime-Agnostic Subprocess
+
+The Vite plugin's `loadSystem()` uses `execSync('bun run ...')`. Next.js projects typically use npm/yarn/pnpm. Adapt the subprocess model: detect `bun` in PATH, fall back to `node` with CJS `require()`. Both the Vite plugin and Next plugin consume this logic.
+
+### 3. `@animus-ui/next-plugin` Package (NEW)
+
+New package providing `withAnimus(options)(nextConfig)` for Next.js App Router and Pages Router.
+
+**Webpack plugin** — `compiler.hooks.run`/`watchRun` calls `loadSystem()` + `analyzeProject()` once per build. Analysis shared across Next's 3 compiler passes (server-nodejs, server-edge, client) via module-level promise mutex. Resolved CSS written to `.animus/styles.css` on disk (real file, not virtual module — simpler integration with Next's CSS pipeline).
+
+**Webpack loader** — Calls `transformFile()` per source file using the cached manifest. Files with no extractable components pass through unchanged.
+
+**Config wrapper** — `withAnimus({ system })` registers plugin + loader, composes with existing `nextConfig.webpack`, validates options.
+
+**Dev HMR** — `watchRun` detects changed files via content hash. Component changes trigger incremental re-analysis. System file changes trigger geological reset (subprocess reload). CSS file write triggers webpack hot update.
+
+### 4. Vite Plugin Adaptation
+
+Vite plugin constructs `EmitterConfig` with its existing defaults (`@animus-ui/system`, `virtual:animus/styles.css`). Subprocess logic refactored to use the runtime-agnostic detection. No behavioral change.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `next-webpack-integration`: Webpack plugin + loader lifecycle for Next.js builds — file discovery, analysis orchestration, CSS delivery, source transformation
+- `next-config-wrapper`: `withAnimus()` API, option validation, webpack config composition, multi-compiler awareness
+- `next-dev-hmr`: Incremental re-analysis on file change, geological reset on system change, CSS file write for hot update
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `extraction-emitter-config`: Runtime import path and CSS module ID become configurable via `EmitterConfig` — shared prerequisite for both Vite and Next plugins
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Subprocess model becomes runtime-agnostic (bun → node fallback), EmitterConfig wired with backward-compatible defaults
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: `analyze_project` and `transform_file` accept emitter config fields in manifest JSON
+
+## Impact
+
+- **New package:** `packages/next-plugin/` — webpack plugin, loader, config wrapper, shared subprocess utilities
+- **`packages/extract/src/transform_emitter.rs`**: `EmitterConfig` struct, configurable import/CSS paths
+- **`packages/extract/src/lib.rs`**: `analyze_project` and `transform_file` forward emitter config through manifest
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`**: Subprocess refactor (bun → node fallback), EmitterConfig construction
+- **Dependencies:** `webpack-virtual-modules` (or disk-write approach), `@animus-ui/extract` (existing)
+- **No changes to:** system builder, theming, CSS generation, @layer cascade, type system, test infrastructure

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: withAnimus config wrapper
+The `withAnimus()` function SHALL accept an options object with a required `system` path and return a function that wraps a Next.js config object, injecting the webpack plugin and loader.
+
+#### Scenario: Minimal configuration
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `withAnimus({ system: './src/ds.ts' })({ reactStrictMode: true })`
+- **THEN** the returned config SHALL include the Animus webpack plugin and loader rule while preserving all original Next.js config options

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Incremental re-analysis on file change
+In dev mode (Next.js dev server), the webpack plugin SHALL detect file changes via `compiler.hooks.watchRun` and trigger incremental re-analysis when extractable source files change.
+
+#### Scenario: Component file changed
+- **WHEN** a source file containing builder chain components is modified during dev
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL re-run `analyzeProject()` with updated file entries and rewrite `.animus/styles.css` if CSS content changed
+
+#### Scenario: Non-component file changed
+- **WHEN** a source file with no extractable components is modified during dev
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL skip re-analysis (content hash check shows no manifest-relevant change)
+
+#### Scenario: CSS file rewrite triggers hot update
+- **WHEN** `.animus/styles.css` is rewritten with new content
+- **THEN** webpack's file watcher SHALL detect the change and trigger a CSS hot update in the browser
+
+### Requirement: Geological reset on system file change
+The plugin SHALL detect changes to the system file (the module passed via `system` option) and trigger a full reload — subprocess re-execution, cache clear, and complete re-analysis.
+
+#### Scenario: System file modified
+- **WHEN** the system file (e.g., `src/ds.ts`) is modified during dev
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL call `clearAnalysisCache()`, re-run `loadSystem()` via subprocess, and re-run `analyzeProject()` with fresh config
+
+#### Scenario: Theme token change
+- **WHEN** the theme tokens or color scales change (which modifies the system file's serialized output)
+- **THEN** the geological reset SHALL produce updated variable CSS in `.animus/styles.css`
+
+### Requirement: Content hash deduplication
+The plugin SHALL track content hashes for source files to avoid redundant analysis and CSS writes.
+
+#### Scenario: Unchanged file skipped
+- **WHEN** a file's content hash matches the previous analysis pass
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL send an empty source with the hash to `analyzeProject()` (Rust cache-hit path skips re-parse)
+
+#### Scenario: CSS write skipped when unchanged
+- **WHEN** resolved CSS content is identical to the existing `.animus/styles.css`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT rewrite the file (avoids unnecessary webpack recompilation)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Webpack plugin orchestrates extraction pipeline
+The Next.js webpack plugin SHALL run the full extraction pipeline (loadSystem → analyzeProject → resolveTransformPlaceholders → applyUnitFallback) once per build, sharing results across all webpack compiler instances via a module-level promise mutex.
+
+#### Scenario: Single analysis across multi-compiler
+- **WHEN** Next.js invokes the webpack config function three times (server-nodejs, server-edge, client)
+- **THEN** `analyzeProject()` SHALL execute exactly once, and all three compiler instances SHALL receive the same manifest and CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Plugin writes CSS to disk
+- **WHEN** analysis completes and CSS is resolved
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL write the combined CSS (variable declarations + global styles + component CSS) to `.animus/styles.css` in the project root
+- **AND** the file SHALL only be written if its content hash differs from the existing file
+
+#### Scenario: Plugin runs at correct lifecycle hook
+- **WHEN** webpack compilation begins
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL tap `compiler.hooks.run` (production) and `compiler.hooks.watchRun` (dev) to trigger analysis before module resolution starts
+
+### Requirement: Webpack loader transforms source files
+The webpack loader SHALL call `transformFile()` for each `.ts`/`.tsx`/`.js`/`.jsx` file, using the cached manifest from the plugin's analysis pass. Files with no extractable components SHALL pass through unchanged.
+
+#### Scenario: File with extractable components
+- **WHEN** the loader processes a source file that contains builder chain components listed in the manifest
+- **THEN** it SHALL return the transformed source with builder chains replaced by `createComponent()` calls and a CSS import injected
+
+#### Scenario: File with no components
+- **WHEN** the loader processes a source file that has no components in the manifest
+- **THEN** it SHALL return the original source unchanged without calling `transformFile()`
+
+#### Scenario: Loader runs before other transforms
+- **WHEN** webpack processes source files through the loader chain
+- **THEN** the Animus loader SHALL execute with `enforce: 'pre'` to see original source before Babel/SWC transformation
+
+### Requirement: Runtime-agnostic subprocess execution
+The subprocess model SHALL detect the available runtime and use it for system loading, global styles resolution, and transform resolution.
+
+#### Scenario: Bun available
+- **WHEN** `bun` is found in the system PATH
+- **THEN** subprocesses SHALL use `bun run <script>` for execution
+
+#### Scenario: Bun not available, node fallback
+- **WHEN** `bun` is NOT found in the system PATH
+- **THEN** subprocesses SHALL use `node <script>` for execution with CJS-compatible scripts
+
+#### Scenario: Subprocess scripts are CJS-compatible
+- **WHEN** a subprocess script is generated for system loading or transform resolution
+- **THEN** it SHALL use `require()` and `module.exports` syntax compatible with both bun and node

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: NAPI function signature
+The Rust crate SHALL export THREE NAPI functions:
+1. `extract(source, filename, theme_json, variable_map_json, config_json, group_registry_json) -> ExtractionResult` — per-file extraction (preserved for backward compatibility and testing)
+2. `analyze_project(file_entries_json, theme_json, variable_map_json, contextual_vars_json?, config_json, group_registry_json, package_resolution_json, dev_mode?, prefix?, emitter_config_json?) -> String` — project-level analysis returning JSON manifest. The new `emitter_config_json` parameter accepts an optional JSON string specifying `EmitterConfig` for configurable runtime import and CSS module ID.
+3. `transform_file(source, filename, manifest_json) -> TransformResult` — per-file transformation using manifest. When the manifest contains emitter config, `apply_replacements` SHALL use those paths instead of hardcoded defaults.
+
+The `theme_json` parameter SHALL include `breakpoints.*` keys in the flattened theme. The extraction pipeline SHALL derive breakpoint key names from these entries rather than using any hardcoded constant.
+
+#### Scenario: Backward-compatible extract
+- **WHEN** `extract()` is called with a file containing only primary chains (no extensions)
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce the same result as before — CSS, transformed code, extractable flag, errors
+
+#### Scenario: analyze_project with emitter config
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` is called with `emitter_config_json: '{"runtime_import":"@animus-ui/system","css_module_id":".animus/styles.css"}'`
+- **THEN** the returned manifest SHALL include the emitter config and `transform_file()` SHALL use those paths in generated import statements
+
+#### Scenario: analyze_project without emitter config
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` is called with `emitter_config_json: None`
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL use default emitter paths (`@animus-ui/system`, `virtual:animus/styles.css`) — backward compatible with existing Vite plugin behavior
+
+#### Scenario: transform_file reads emitter config from manifest
+- **WHEN** `transform_file()` is called with a manifest containing emitter config
+- **THEN** it SHALL emit `import { createComponent } from '<runtime_import>'` and `import '<css_module_id>'` using the config values
+
+#### Scenario: Custom breakpoints in theme_json
+- **WHEN** `theme_json` contains `{ "breakpoints.mobile": "480", "breakpoints.tablet": "768", "breakpoints.desktop": "1024" }`
+- **THEN** the extraction pipeline SHALL recognize `{ mobile: value, tablet: value, desktop: value }` as responsive objects and generate `@media (min-width: 480px)`, `@media (min-width: 768px)`, `@media (min-width: 1024px)` queries
+
+#### Scenario: analyze_project with extensions
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` is called with files containing extension chains
+- **THEN** the returned manifest JSON SHALL contain all components (primary and extended), resolved provenance, merged chain configs, and complete CSS
+
+#### Scenario: transform_file uses manifest
+- **WHEN** `transform_file()` is called with a file and a manifest
+- **THEN** it SHALL look up the file's components in the manifest and apply source replacements using the manifest's precomputed class names and configs

+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })`

+- **WHEN** `bun` is not found in the system PATH
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL use `node` to execute subprocess scripts with CJS-compatible require() syntax
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: EmitterConfig construction
+The Vite plugin SHALL construct an `EmitterConfig` with default values (`runtime_import: '@animus-ui/system'`, `css_module_id: 'virtual:animus/styles.css'`) and pass it to `analyzeProject()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Backward-compatible defaults
+- **WHEN** the Vite plugin calls `analyzeProject()`
+- **THEN** it SHALL include emitter config JSON with the existing default import source and virtual CSS module ID
+- **AND** the transformed output SHALL be identical to the current behavior

+## Context
+
+CSS property classification data (unitless behavior, shorthand ordering, type definitions) is consumed at multiple pipeline stages but has no shared home. The unitless set is duplicated in `extract/pipeline/unit-fallback.ts` (42 properties) and `system/src/runtime/resolveClasses.ts` (42 properties, different sort order). Shorthand properties are duplicated across TypeScript (`core/src/properties/orderPropNames.ts`) and Rust (`extract/src/css_generator.rs`). csstype is depended on directly by system with no augmentation layer.
+
+The ecosystem pattern (Emotion model) is a zero-dep package exporting plain data: `@emotion/unitless` (6KB, 28M downloads) is the canonical example. The anti-pattern is Panda's `@pandacss/shared` (143KB kitchen sink).
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Create `@animus-ui/properties` as the single source of truth for CSS property classification data
+- Eliminate the inline UNITLESS_PROPERTIES duplication between extract and system
+- Establish the csstype ownership point for future augmentations
+- Provide SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES as canonical TS source
+- Keep the package zero-internal-dependency (only csstype as external)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Moving processing logic (applyUnitFallback, orderPropNames functions) — those stay in their respective packages
+- Replacing the Rust shorthand list (cross-language duplication is a codegen concern, not a shared-package concern)
+- Moving isPropValid now — future home only, @emotion/is-prop-valid stays for now
+- Touching core or theming packages (legacy)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Package name: `@animus-ui/properties`
+
+Boundary test: "Does this answer a question about a CSS property's behavior or classification?" Unitless → yes. Shorthand → yes. Property types → yes. `camelToKebab` → no (string utility). `ANIMUS_LAYERS` → no (cascade architecture).
+
+**Alternative considered:** `@animus-ui/css-data` — rejected as too generic, doesn't communicate the focus on properties specifically.
+
+### 2. Package structure
+
+```
+packages/properties/
+  src/
+    unitless.ts           # UNITLESS_PROPERTIES: Set<string>
+    shorthands.ts         # SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES: string[]
+    csstype.ts            # Re-export + augmentation point for csstype
+    index.ts              # Barrel export
+  package.json
+  tsconfig.json
+  tsconfig.build.json
+  tsdown.config.ts
+```
+
+**Rationale:** One file per concern. The barrel re-exports everything. Barrel-only for v1 — no subpath exports (three internal consumers don't need them).
+
+### 3. Export shapes
+
+- `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES` as `Set<string>` — consumers do `.has()` lookups, Set is the natural structure. Property names in **kebab-case** (CSS convention, matching how they appear in declarations). 44 properties (42 existing + `aspect-ratio` + `scale`).
+- `SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES` as `readonly string[]` — consumers need ordered iteration for declaration sorting. Property names in **camelCase** (matching how they appear in prop configs). Scoped to registered prop-config shorthands, not all CSS shorthands. Deduplicated (current source has duplicate `transition` entry).
+- csstype re-exported via wildcard (`export type * from 'csstype'`) — provides `Properties`, `Property`, `Pseudos`, `AtRule`, etc. from a single augmentation point.
+
+**Casing convention rationale:** The two exports use different naming conventions because their consumers operate at different stages. Unitless lookups happen against kebab-case CSS declaration names in post-processing output. Shorthand lookups happen against camelCase prop config keys in the builder. Each file SHALL carry a JSDoc comment explaining this to prevent well-intentioned "normalization" by future contributors.
+
+### 4. Build order insertion
+
+`properties` has zero internal deps. Build order becomes: `properties → extract → system → vite-plugin/next-plugin → showcase`.
+
+The root `package.json` `build:ts` script is a hand-maintained sequential `&&` chain. Insert `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/properties' build &&` at the start of the chain, before `core`. Also add `properties` to the `compile` script's tsc chain. Both `extract` and `system` package.json files get `@animus-ui/properties: workspace:*` added to dependencies.
+
+**Note on system's dependency invariant:** system currently declares zero `@animus-ui/*` dependencies. Adding `@animus-ui/properties` is intentional — it's pure data that gets inlined at build time by tsdown. The published system package remains self-contained. Both extract and system will inline the properties data into their dist (tsdown `platform: neutral` with no externals config), which is the desired behavior — the data IS part of their runtime.
+
+### 5. Consumer migration
+
+- `extract/pipeline/unit-fallback.ts`: Remove inline `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES` Set (lines 6-49). Import from `@animus-ui/properties`.
+- `system/src/runtime/resolveClasses.ts`: Remove inline unitless Set (lines 44-87). Import from `@animus-ui/properties`.
+- `system/package.json`: Add `@animus-ui/properties` to dependencies. Move `csstype` from direct dep to properties package.
+
+The Rust crate's `SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES` is not changed — cross-language sharing requires a different mechanism (codegen or build-time JSON read), which is out of scope.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[New package overhead]** → A new package adds build step and maintenance surface. Mitigation: package is tiny (~100 lines of data), zero internal deps, builds in <1s. The overhead is minimal compared to the drift risk of duplication.
+- **[tsdown bundling behavior]** → system's tsdown config uses `platform: neutral` with no explicit externals. When system imports from `@animus-ui/properties`, tsdown will bundle the data inline into system's dist. This is actually desirable — the properties data IS part of system's runtime, and inlining eliminates the runtime dep. Mitigation: verify with a test build.
+- **[csstype version coupling]** → Properties package owns csstype dep, consumers get whatever version properties pins. Mitigation: csstype follows semver and breaking changes are rare. Properties re-exports the types, so version bumps happen in one place.

+## Why
+
+CSS property knowledge (unitless behavior, shorthand ordering, prop validity, type definitions) is consumed by multiple pipeline stages — build-time extraction, post-processing, and runtime — but has no canonical home. The unitless property set is duplicated between `extract/pipeline` and `system/runtime` with divergent sort order. Shorthand properties are duplicated across TypeScript (core) and Rust (extract crate). csstype is depended on directly by system with no augmentation layer. This creates drift risk and forces each consumer to independently maintain CSS domain knowledge that should be shared.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Create `@animus-ui/properties` package** — a zero-internal-dependency package that owns all CSS property classification data. Only external dep: `csstype` for property type re-exports.
+- **Extract `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES`** — canonical `Set<string>` of 42 CSS properties that should not receive automatic `px` unit fallback. Imported by `extract/pipeline/unit-fallback.ts` and `system/src/runtime/resolveClasses.ts`, replacing their inline definitions.
+- **Extract `SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES`** — canonical ordered array of CSS shorthand properties used for declaration ordering (shorthands before longhands). Replaces the inline list in `core/src/properties/orderPropNames.ts`.
+- **Re-export csstype** — own the csstype relationship so consumers import property types from `@animus-ui/properties` instead of depending on csstype directly. Provides a single augmentation point.
+- **Establish future home** for `isPropValid` if/when we move off `@emotion/is-prop-valid`.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `css-property-data`: Shared CSS property classification data (unitless set, shorthand list, type re-exports) consumed by multiple pipeline stages
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `unit-fallback`: Both pipeline and runtime import UNITLESS_PROPERTIES from `@animus-ui/properties` instead of inline definitions
+- `extract-pipeline`: Pipeline utilities import shared property data from `@animus-ui/properties`
+
+## Impact
+
+- New package: `packages/properties/` with `src/`, `package.json`, `tsdown.config.ts`, `tsconfig.build.json`
+- `packages/extract/pipeline/unit-fallback.ts` — remove inline UNITLESS set, import from `@animus-ui/properties`
+- `packages/system/src/runtime/resolveClasses.ts` — remove inline UNITLESS set, import from `@animus-ui/properties`
+- `packages/system/package.json` — add `@animus-ui/properties` dependency
+- `packages/extract/package.json` — add `@animus-ui/properties` dependency
+- Build order: `properties → extract → system → plugins` (properties has zero internal deps, slots at front)
+- Subsumes R2 task from `v1-review-fixes` change

+## Context
+
+Animus has a comprehensive RFC.md (1081 lines) covering architecture, builder chains, extraction pipeline, runtime audit, and roadmap. Despite this, three independent agent reviewers in the V1 review produced the same false positives — misattributing token ref opacity, calling by-design patterns "bugs," and missing the graceful degradation model. The RFC is too long and too detailed for evaluators to absorb before reviewing. They need a shorter, claim-oriented document they can check against.
+
+Current state: no dedicated evaluator-facing documentation exists. Reviewers read code, make assumptions, and file findings based on those assumptions.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Pre-answer recurring evaluator questions so feedback surfaces real gaps
+- Provide verifiable claims (every assertion has a proof pointer)
+- Correct the 5 most common false positives from V1 review
+- Give prospective adopters a quick mental model without reading the RFC
+- Document known limitations honestly with status
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Replacing RFC.md — the FAQ complements, never duplicates
+- Tutorial or getting-started guide — this is not onboarding docs
+- API reference — the type system and builder chain are self-documenting
+- Updating reviewer personas to reference the FAQ (future follow-up)
+- Marketing copy or competitive comparisons
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Single file at `docs/v1-faq.md`
+
+**Rationale:** One file is grep-able, linkable, and impossible to miss. A `docs/` directory signals "documentation" without polluting the repo root. Agents exploring the repo will find it via standard patterns (`docs/`, `FAQ`, `*.md`).
+
+**Alternative considered:** Root-level `FAQ.md` — rejected because the repo root already has `RFC.md` and `README.md`; adding a third top-level doc creates clutter.
+
+### 2. Claim → Truth → Verify triple structure for misconceptions
+
+Each misconception entry follows:
+- **Claim**: What evaluators assume (stated neutrally)
+- **Truth**: The actual behavior (1-2 sentences)
+- **Verify**: `file:function` or `grep` command to confirm
+
+**Rationale:** Evaluators don't trust documentation claims — they trust evidence. The verify step turns each FAQ entry into a testable assertion. Using `file:function` rather than `file:line` because line numbers shift; function names are stable.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Prose-style explanations — rejected because evaluators scan, they don't read essays.
+
+### 3. Feature matrix as binary table with "how" column
+
+| Feature | Supported | How |
+|---------|-----------|-----|
+
+**Rationale:** "Does it do X?" is the most common evaluator question. A scannable table with yes/no answers and a brief "how" prevents both false negatives ("it can't do that") and false positives ("it does that via...").
+
+### 4. Known limitations with status tags
+
+Each limitation gets a status: `planned`, `designing`, `not-planned`, or `known-constraint`.
+
+**Rationale:** Honesty about gaps builds trust. Status tags tell evaluators whether to file a finding or not — `planned` means "we know, it's coming," `known-constraint` means "this is a deliberate trade-off."
+
+### 5. No prose duplication from RFC.md — reference by section
+
+Where the FAQ needs to explain something covered in the RFC, it links: "See RFC.md §7: Extraction Pipeline" rather than restating.
+
+**Rationale:** Single source of truth. Two documents saying the same thing will inevitably diverge.
+
+### 6. Prop groups positioned as user-defined, not framework-provided
+
+The FAQ must explicitly state that prop groups (space, color, typography, etc.) are 100% consumer-defined via `.addGroup()`. The showcase's groups are that app's design choices. Animus provides the primitive, not the opinions.
+
+**Rationale:** This is the #1 positioning confusion. Every reviewer assumed the showcase's groups ARE the framework. The FAQ corrects this upfront.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Staleness]** → FAQ content can drift from codebase reality. Mitigation: every claim has a verify step; stale claims are detectable by running the verify command.
+- **[Incomplete coverage]** → FAQ can't anticipate every misconception. Mitigation: structured format makes adding entries trivial; treat it as a living document.
+- **[Over-documenting]** → Risk of the FAQ growing into a second RFC. Mitigation: strict constraint — no entry without a concrete false-positive trigger or adoption question. If it's not answering a real question, it doesn't belong.

+## Why
+
+V1 review by three independent agent reviewers produced recurring false positives — claims about "dead code," "missing features," and "architectural gaps" that are verifiably wrong. Each reviewer wasted significant evaluation time rediscovering the same misunderstandings (token ref opacity attribution, includes() semantics, module augmentation patterns). Without a grounding document, every future evaluator will repeat this cycle, and their genuinely novel feedback will be buried under noise.
+
+A concise FAQ bridges the gap between RFC.md (the full architectural spec) and a cold evaluator's assumptions. It pre-answers the questions agents will ask so their feedback surfaces real gaps instead of phantom ones.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- New `docs/v1-faq.md` document structured for quick lookup by evaluators, reviewers, and prospective adopters
+- Covers: positioning, mental model, common misconceptions with proof pointers, feature matrix, known limitations with status, adoption guidance
+- Each claim includes a verification path (file:function or file:line) so nothing requires trust
+- Corrects specific recurring false positives: token ref opacity location, includes() design intent, module augmentation pattern, zero-runtime definition, prop group user-definability
+- References but does not duplicate RFC.md content — FAQ is the correction layer, RFC is the spec
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `v1-faq-document`: The FAQ document itself — structure, content sections, verification paths, and integration with reviewer workflow
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+_None — this is purely additive documentation._
+
+## Impact
+
+- New file: `docs/v1-faq.md`
+- No code changes
+- No API changes
+- No dependency changes
+- Reviewer personas (`.claude/personas/`) may optionally reference the FAQ in future iterations, but that's out of scope for this change

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: FAQ document structure
+The FAQ document SHALL be a single Markdown file at `docs/v1-faq.md` containing exactly these sections in order: What Is This, How It Works, Common Misconceptions, Feature Matrix, Known Limitations, Adoption, Proof Points.
+
+#### Scenario: File exists at expected path
+- **WHEN** a reviewer or agent explores the repository
+- **THEN** `docs/v1-faq.md` SHALL exist and be readable
+
+#### Scenario: All required sections present
+- **WHEN** the FAQ document is opened
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain H2 headers for each of the 7 required sections
+
+### Requirement: Positioning section brevity
+The "What Is This" section SHALL be no more than 3 sentences. It positions the project without pitching it.
+
+#### Scenario: Positioning is concise
+- **WHEN** a reader encounters the "What Is This" section
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain at most 3 sentences describing what Animus is, what it produces, and what it requires
+
+### Requirement: Mental model section
+The "How It Works" section SHALL provide a 5-bullet mental model covering: builder chain → static extraction → cascade layers → zero-runtime output → graceful degradation.
+
+#### Scenario: Mental model covers pipeline
+- **WHEN** a reader encounters "How It Works"
+- **THEN** it SHALL explain the path from builder definition to CSS output in 5 bullets without referencing implementation files
+
+### Requirement: Common misconceptions with verification
+Each entry in the "Common Misconceptions" section SHALL follow the Claim → Truth → Verify triple structure. Every Verify step SHALL reference a stable identifier (function name, export name, or grep pattern) — never a line number.
+
+#### Scenario: Token ref opacity misconception
+- **WHEN** a reviewer looks for how `{colors.x/40}` opacity syntax works
+- **THEN** the FAQ SHALL state that token ref opacity is resolved by the Rust extraction crate, NOT by `createTheme.ts`, and provide a verification path to the Rust function
+
+#### Scenario: includes() misconception
+- **WHEN** a reviewer encounters `.includes()` on SystemBuilder and notes it is a runtime no-op
+- **THEN** the FAQ SHALL explain that `includes()` is a by-design AST marker consumed by `extractSystemFilePackages()` for package discovery, and provide verification
+
+#### Scenario: Module augmentation misconception
+- **WHEN** a reviewer flags `declare module '@animus-ui/system'` as unusual
+- **THEN** the FAQ SHALL note this is the industry-standard pattern (Emotion, styled-components) for TypeScript theme type augmentation
+
+#### Scenario: Zero-runtime misconception
+- **WHEN** a reviewer claims "zero runtime" is misleading
+- **THEN** the FAQ SHALL define zero-runtime as "no style computation at render time" and state the runtime size (pure string lookup, no hooks, no browser APIs), with verification path
+
+#### Scenario: Prop groups misconception
+- **WHEN** a reviewer assumes prop groups (space, color, typography) are framework-provided defaults
+- **THEN** the FAQ SHALL state that all prop groups are 100% user-defined via `.addGroup()` and that the showcase's groups are that application's design choices, not the framework's opinions
+
+### Requirement: Feature matrix format
+The "Feature Matrix" section SHALL present features as a table with columns: Feature, Supported (Yes/No), How (brief mechanism).
+
+#### Scenario: Feature matrix covers core capabilities
+- **WHEN** the feature matrix is consulted
+- **THEN** it SHALL include entries for at minimum: CSS variables, color modes, responsive props, token references, opacity modifiers, custom transforms, cascade layers, global styles, multi-slot composition, framework-agnostic output, Vite support, Next.js support, CSS variable prefixing, incremental HMR
+
+#### Scenario: Feature matrix entries are verifiable
+- **WHEN** a feature is listed as "Yes"
+- **THEN** the "How" column SHALL name the mechanism (builder method, pipeline step, or plugin feature) that provides it
+
+### Requirement: Known limitations with status
+Each entry in "Known Limitations" SHALL include a status tag: `planned`, `designing`, `not-planned`, or `known-constraint`.
+
+#### Scenario: Limitations are honest
+- **WHEN** a reviewer checks known limitations
+- **THEN** the section SHALL include at minimum: single CSS file (no route splitting), static-only extraction values, compose() requires 'use client' in App Router, no Webpack standalone plugin
+
+#### Scenario: Status tags are accurate
+- **WHEN** a limitation is tagged as `planned`
+- **THEN** there SHALL exist a corresponding openspec proposal or active change for that feature
+
+### Requirement: Adoption section
+The "Adoption" section SHALL cover plugin setup (both Vite and Next.js), the module augmentation pattern, and the answer to "how do I use this" (add plugin, import virtual stylesheet, define components).
+
+#### Scenario: Setup is concrete
+- **WHEN** a prospective adopter reads the adoption section
+- **THEN** it SHALL show the minimum config for both `animusExtract()` (Vite) and `withAnimus()` (Next.js) with the single required option (`system`)
+
+### Requirement: Proof points index
+The "Proof Points" section SHALL provide a consolidated index of all verification paths used throughout the document, grouped by package.
+
+#### Scenario: All verify steps are indexed
+- **WHEN** a Claim → Truth → Verify triple appears in the misconceptions section
+- **THEN** its Verify path SHALL also appear in the Proof Points index
+
+### Requirement: No RFC duplication
+The FAQ SHALL NOT restate content from RFC.md. Where deeper explanation is needed, it SHALL reference the RFC by section (e.g., "See RFC.md §7").
+
+#### Scenario: RFC reference instead of duplication
+- **WHEN** an FAQ entry touches on extraction pipeline details, builder chain mechanics, or runtime audit
+- **THEN** it SHALL link to the relevant RFC section rather than restating the content

+## Context
+
+Four bugs found by V2 review. All are silent failures or misleading errors in existing code paths. No new architecture needed — each is a targeted fix to an existing module.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Fix 4 concrete correctness issues identified by independent reviewers
+- Maintain behavioral parity between static extraction and runtime dynamic paths
+- Improve error diagnostics for system loading
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Redesigning applyPrefix API (just extend it)
+- Redesigning loadSystem subprocess architecture
+- Adding new UNITLESS_PROPERTIES (just deduplicating existing ones)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Shared UNITLESS_PROPERTIES module location
+
+Extract to `packages/extract/pipeline/unitless-properties.ts` as a `Set<string>`. Import in both `unit-fallback.ts` and `resolveClasses.ts`.
+
+**Rationale:** The pipeline package is the source of truth for CSS processing rules. The runtime depends on extract via the build pipeline anyway (the plugin injects the system-props module). Adding a shared constant doesn't create a new dependency — `resolveClasses.ts` is bundled into the system package at build time, so the import resolves at compile time, not runtime.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Put it in system and import from extract. Rejected — system describes, extract processes. CSS processing rules belong in extract.
+
+### 2. applyPrefix contextualVarsJson handling
+
+Add `contextualVarsJson` as an optional parameter to `applyPrefix`. Apply the same `--name` → `--prefix-name` rewriting to the serialized contextual var names.
+
+**Rationale:** The contextual vars generate CSS like `--current-bg: var(--color-bg)`. Both the `--current-bg` declaration name and the `var(--color-bg)` reference need prefixing. The existing `var()` reference regex already handles the reference side. The declaration name needs a separate pass since contextual var names use the `--current-{name}` convention, not the standard `--{scale}-{key}` pattern.
+
+### 3. resolveTokenRefs opacity fix
+
+Implement `color-mix(in srgb, {resolved} {opacity}%, transparent)` for the case where the resolved value is NOT a `var()` reference (raw value from a non-emitted scale). For the `var()` case, also emit `color-mix` — same formula as `resolveTokenAliases` in the pipeline.
+
+**Rationale:** The Rust crate and the pipeline's `resolveTokenAliases` both handle this correctly. The theme-level resolver is the only path that drops opacity. Aligning it with the same formula ensures consistency.
+
+### 4. loadSystem export detection improvement
+
+Iterate all module exports and find any that satisfy `.toConfig()`. Report found exports in the error message. Fix `.serialize()` → `.toConfig()` in the error string.
+
+**Rationale:** Auto-detecting any export with `.toConfig()` removes the magic name convention entirely. If zero or multiple candidates exist, throw a diagnostic naming what was found. This is strictly better than the current approach with no downsides.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[UNITLESS_PROPERTIES import path]** → `resolveClasses.ts` importing from extract means the system package build must resolve this at compile time. The tsdown bundler handles this via the workspace resolution. If the extract package isn't built, system's build fails. Mitigation: build order already enforces extract → system.
+- **[loadSystem auto-detection]** → If a module exports multiple objects with `.toConfig()`, the error should list candidates rather than picking one arbitrarily. Mitigation: throw with candidate list and let the user choose by export name.

+## Why
+
+V2 review (3 independent reviewers with FAQ grounding) identified 4 concrete bugs — all silent failures or misleading errors with no design ambiguity. Each was caught independently by at least one reviewer, and none overlap with FAQ-covered topics. These are real gaps that would bite adopters.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Fix `applyPrefix` contextualVarsJson gap** — When `prefix` is configured, contextual variable CSS (`--current-bg`) stays unprefixed while all other variables are prefixed (`--acme-color-bg`). The `var()` references inside contextual var rules point to nonexistent names. Silent CSS breakage.
+- **Fix `resolveTokenRefs` opacity dead code** — `return opacity ? refValue : refValue` on line 653 of `createTheme.ts` silently drops opacity modifiers on cross-scale token refs in theme definitions. Both branches return the same value.
+- **Deduplicate UNITLESS_PROPERTIES** — The unitless property set is defined in both `extract/pipeline/unit-fallback.ts` and `system/src/runtime/resolveClasses.ts` with 4 legacy properties (`box-flex`, `box-flex-group`, `box-ordinal-group`, `flex-order`) present in the pipeline but missing from the runtime. Static and dynamic paths produce different CSS for the same value.
+- **Fix loadSystem error message and export detection** — Error says `.serialize()` but checks `.toConfig()`. Only recognizes export names `ds`, `default`, `system` with no diagnostic naming the valid names or listing what was found.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+_None — all fixes to existing capabilities._
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `token-alias-syntax`: Fix opacity resolution in theme-level cross-scale token refs
+- `unit-fallback`: Deduplicate unitless property set between pipeline and runtime
+- `extract-pipeline`: Fix applyPrefix to cover contextualVarsJson
+- `system-serialization`: Fix loadSystem export detection and error messaging
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/extract/pipeline/prefix.ts` — extend `applyPrefix` for contextualVarsJson
+- `packages/system/src/theme/createTheme.ts` — fix `resolveTokenRefs` opacity branch
+- `packages/extract/pipeline/unit-fallback.ts` — extract shared UNITLESS set
+- `packages/system/src/runtime/resolveClasses.ts` — import shared UNITLESS set
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts` — fix loadSystem error message + export detection
+- `packages/next-plugin/src/plugin.ts` — fix loadSystem error message + export detection
+- No API changes, no breaking changes

+
+### Requirement: Unitless property set consistency
+The set of CSS properties that SHALL NOT receive automatic `px` unit fallback MUST be identical between the build-time pipeline (`applyUnitFallback`) and the runtime dynamic path (`resolveClasses`). Both MUST reference a single shared definition.
+
+#### Scenario: Shared unitless set
+- **WHEN** the unitless property set is defined
+- **THEN** it SHALL exist in exactly one location and be imported by both `extract/pipeline/unit-fallback.ts` and `system/src/runtime/resolveClasses.ts`

+## Why
+
+After decoupling theming from system (change 1: `absorb-theming-into-system`), theme tokens and system config are separate exports. For local development this is fine — the plugin config points to a file path. But for distributed design systems (`@company/design-system` consumed by app teams), the plugin needs a way to discover where tokens and system config live.
+
+Additionally, consumers need a guaranteed single entry point that: (a) ensures their theme and system modules are in Vite's module graph for HMR propagation, (b) anchors the virtual stylesheet import, and (c) provides a hook for color mode runtime.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Rename runtime to `@animus-ui/react`**: The existing runtime package becomes the React-specific entry point. `createComponent` and ref forwarding stay. New: `AnimusProvider`.
+- **AnimusProvider component**: A typed import-anchor component exported from `@animus-ui/react`. Accepts `theme` (typed as `Theme`) and `system` (typed as `SystemInstance`) props. Renders children only — no React context, no runtime wrapping. The props exist to force consumers to import their theme and system modules, creating edges in the module graph.
+- **Typed prop enforcement**: The `theme` prop is typed against the augmented `Theme` interface. If the consumer hasn't properly augmented `Theme`, TypeScript catches the mismatch at the provider callsite.
+- **Plugin detection (future)**: The plugin can scan for `AnimusProvider` usage in JSX, trace the `theme` and `system` prop bindings back to their source modules, and auto-configure without explicit path config.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `animus-provider`: AnimusProvider component as typed import-anchor for distributed design system consumption
+- `react-package`: Rename runtime to `@animus-ui/react`, add AnimusProvider, runtime becomes internal dependency
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Plugin gains ability to load tokens/system from module exports discovered via AnimusProvider (alongside existing file path config)
+
+## Impact
+
+- **runtime package**: Renamed to `@animus-ui/react`. Published as `@animus-ui/react`. Runtime's `createComponent` becomes an internal implementation detail.
+- **Consumer API**: `import { AnimusProvider } from '@animus-ui/react'` in app root. `import { createComponent } from '@animus-ui/react'` still works (re-exported).
+- **Plugin config**: Gains support for package specifier (`system: '@company/design-system'`) in addition to file paths.
+- **Showcase**: Updates to import from `@animus-ui/react` instead of `@animus-ui/runtime`.
+- **Hardcoded runtime import in Rust**: `transform_emitter.rs` currently emits `@animus-ui/runtime` — must change to `@animus-ui/react`.
+
+## Progression
+
+This is change 2 of 2. Depends on change 1 (`absorb-theming-into-system`) which decouples tokens from SystemBuilder and makes the plugin load tokens from module exports.

+
+## What Our Architecture Uniquely Enables
+
+### 1. Cascade-ordered slot recipes
+Panda/Chakra slot recipes have no @layer ordering between slots. In Animus, each slot is a builder chain with its own @layer position. A parent slot's `.variant()` styles (`@layer variants`) predictably override a child slot's `.styles()` (`@layer base`). Architecturally impossible without @layer semantics.
+
+### 2. Type-state enforced composition
+The builder chain IS the cascade contract. `.variant()` after `.props()` is a compile error. StyleX has `StyleXStyles<T>` for property restriction, but not ordering enforcement.
+
+### 3. Provenance-tracked extension
+`.asComponent(Base)` emits parent and child to the same @layer, source-ordered. Override is structural, not merge-order-dependent.
+
+### 4. Finite style machine completeness
+ENUMERATE → TRANSACT → RECONCILE → SNOWFLAKE. No other framework can prove every well-typed prop value produces visible CSS.
+
+## Active Proposals (own spike)
+
+### `css()` standalone utility
+DX gap — every competitor has an escape hatch for one-off styles. Additive method on system build result: `ds.css({ display: 'flex', p: 8 })` → className. Extracts to `@layer base`. See `openspec/changes/css-utility/`.
+
+### Slot recipes
+Multi-part component pattern. API-first decision — how the consumer writes it matters more than implementation. See `openspec/changes/slot-recipes/` (explore).
+
+## Deferred (worth considering later)
+
+### colorPalette virtual token rebinding
+Chakra v3's solution to color × variant combinatorial explosion. One component definition references `colorPalette.*`, `<Button colorPalette="red">` rebinds to `red.*` via CSS variable scoping. Aligns with existing `colorScheme-primitive` proposal. Worth exploring after slot recipes.
+
+### Text/layer style presets
+Named style bundles at the system level: `textStyle="heading.xl"`, `layerStyle="card"`. Consumed as props on any component. Extractable as static class references. API question: `.withPresets()` on system builder.
+
+### Container queries
+Panda's `@/sm` and `@name/sm` syntax. Future of responsive design. Would need responsive syntax extension + Rust `@container` emission.
+
+### `@property` typed CSS variables
+StyleX's typed var declarations enable CSS transitions on custom properties. Low priority — niche use case.
+
+## Iceboxed
+
+### Responsive variant switching
+Variant PROP accepting responsive syntax: `size={{ _: 'sm', md: 'lg' }}`. Variant style VALUES already support responsive — the gap is narrow. Complexity cost (type widening, breakpoint flattening, media-queried variant classes) outweighs benefit. Defer.
+
+### Deterministic merge (StyleX model)
+Fundamentally different philosophy — "last applied wins" at call site vs our cascade-based ordering. Not compatible with our @layer approach. Not a gap.
+
+### Atomic CSS dedup (StyleX content-addressed)
+Our per-component class naming is intentional for debuggability. Not a gap.

+## Context
+
+`compose()` creates a sealed component family from independently-authored Animus components. Root provides shared variant values via React context; child slots consume from context with direct-prop override. The output is `ComposedFamily<Slots>` — a record of `ForwardRefExoticComponent` entries.
+
+Current implementation: ~100 lines in `compose.ts`, types in `component.ts`. Integration tests in `_integration/__tests__/composition.test.ts`. The Rust extractor handles compose through the pipeline for slot CSS and shared variant analysis.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Eliminate the extra Provider wrapper element in the React tree
+- Make Root convention explicit and literal (`"Root"` key only)
+- Derive family name from slot keys, not fragile displayName parsing
+- Ensure React keys propagate through forwardRef wrappers
+- Keep compose() API signature unchanged: `compose(slots, { shared })` → `ComposedFamily`
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing the shared variant propagation model (context-based, Root provides, children consume)
+- Adding new compose features (nested composition, dynamic slot injection, etc.)
+- Modifying how the Rust extractor detects compose calls in the AST (if the wrapper structure change doesn't affect extraction, leave extractor alone)
+- Changing the sealing behavior (composed output has no `.extend()`)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### D1: Fragment-based context injection via children wrapping
+
+Instead of wrapping Root in a Provider element:
+```jsx
+// BEFORE: Provider → Root (extra element)
+createElement(Provider, { value }, createElement(Source, props))
+
+// AFTER: Root renders, children wrapped in Provider
+createElement(Source, { ...props, children: createElement(Provider, { value }, props.children) })
+```
+
+Wait — this is wrong. Root's children ARE the composed children. The context needs to be available to child slots, not just Root's own children.
+
+Better approach: Root's forwardRef wrapper renders Provider around the Source output:
+```jsx
+// Root wrapper
+return createElement(Provider, { value: sharedValues },
+  createElement(Source, { ...props, ref })
+);
+```
+
+This is actually what we already have. The "extra element" IS the Provider — you can't provide context without a Provider element. The improvement is that the Provider should use a Fragment-like approach where it doesn't create a DOM node.
+
+Actually, `Context.Provider` already doesn't create a DOM node. It's a React internal. The tree depth is Provider (no DOM) → Root (DOM). This is fine. The real issue was the perception of extra wrapping, but `Provider` is invisible in the DOM.
+
+**Revised decision:** Keep the Provider wrapping pattern (it's correct — Provider doesn't create DOM nodes). Focus the redesign on the other three issues which are the real structural problems.
+
+### D2: Strict `"Root"` key convention
+
+Replace `name.toLowerCase() === 'root'` with `name === 'Root'` at runtime. Update `RootSlot` type from:
+```typescript
+type RootSlot<Slots> = {
+  [K in keyof Slots]: Lowercase<K & string> extends 'root' ? Slots[K] : never;
+}[keyof Slots];
+```
+To:
+```typescript
+type RootSlot<Slots> = 'Root' extends keyof Slots ? Slots['Root'] : never;
+```
+
+**Rationale:** Explicit convention is better than magic matching. `"Root"` is the natural PascalCase key for a component slot. Case-insensitive matching adds complexity without value — no consumer intentionally names a slot `"rOOt"`.
+
+**Breaking:** `compose({ root: RootComp, ... })` no longer works. Must be `Root`.
+
+### D3: Family name from first slot key or explicit option
+
+Replace `rootSlot.displayName.replace(/[-_].*$/, '')` with derivation from slot keys:
+- Family name = `"Root"` slot's source component displayName (before any extraction mangling), OR
+- Simply use a stable generated name like `"ComposedFamily"` and let each slot have `Slot.displayName = "Family.SlotName"`
+
+Better: accept an optional `name` in the options:
+```typescript
+compose(slots, { shared, name: 'Card' })
+```
+If not provided, derive from Root's displayName with a more robust regex that strips the `animus-` prefix and hash suffix but preserves the component name.
+
+### D4: Key propagation verification
+
+React keys on JSX elements (`<Root key="x">`) propagate through `forwardRef` automatically — the key stays on the outer wrapper, which is the element React tracks. This is already correct behavior. The concern may be about keys set INSIDE the wrapper via `createElement`.
+
+Verify with a test case: rendering a list of composed Root components with keys should maintain React reconciliation identity.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Breaking: lowercase root]** → Migration is a find-replace: `root:` → `Root:` in compose calls. Low risk in practice — most code already uses PascalCase for component slots.
+- **[Provider is already DOM-invisible]** → The "extra element" concern resolves to a non-issue upon investigation. `Context.Provider` doesn't create DOM nodes. The redesign should not introduce a different context injection pattern just to eliminate an invisible wrapper.
+- **[Extraction interaction]** → The Rust extractor reads AST structure for compose detection. If we change how compose() wraps components, the extractor's compose-related logic may need updating. Need to verify extraction still works after changes.

+## Why
+
+`compose()` has four structural issues that compound into fragility and unnecessary React tree depth:
+
+1. **Extra React element in tree**: Root wraps with `createElement(Provider, {value}, createElement(Source, props))` — every composed family has an invisible extra component in the tree. Root should provide context without an additional wrapper layer.
+2. **Case-insensitive Root detection**: Runtime uses `name.toLowerCase() === 'root'`, types use `Lowercase<K> extends 'root'`. Any casing of "root" matches. This is fragile — `ROOT`, `rOOt` all silently become the provider. Convention should be explicit: the key must be literally `"Root"`.
+3. **displayName derivation is fragile**: `rootSlot.displayName.replace(/[-_].*$/, '')` strips after the first dash/underscore. With extraction class names like `animus-Card-abc123`, this produces `animus` as the family name. Family name should derive from slot keys, not parsed displayNames.
+4. **Key preservation through wrappers**: `forwardRef` wrappers need to correctly propagate React keys for list rendering scenarios.
+
+These are all in ~100 lines of `compose.ts` + supporting types in `component.ts`. Small scope, high-impact DX improvement.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Replace Provider-wrapping Root pattern with Fragment-based context injection (Root renders as itself, not wrapped in Provider)
+- Enforce `"Root"` as the exact slot key convention (remove `toLowerCase()` matching, update `RootSlot` type to use literal `'Root'` key lookup)
+- Derive family name from the composed family's slot structure, not from displayName parsing
+- Ensure React key propagation through forwardRef wrapper layer
+- **BREAKING**: Slot key `"root"` (lowercase) no longer detected as Root — must be `"Root"`
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `compose-slot-composition`: Covers compose() API, Root convention, context propagation, sealing behavior, family naming
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `pipeline-integration-testing`: Composition tests need updating for new Root convention and wrapper structure
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/system/src/compose.ts` — rewrite (~100 lines)
+- `packages/system/src/types/component.ts` — update `RootSlot`, `ComposedFamily`, remove deprecated `SharedVariantKeys`
+- `packages/_integration/__tests__/composition.test.ts` — update test expectations
+- `packages/_integration/fixtures/components/composition.tsx` — update fixture if Root key convention changes
+- Rust extractor: verify compose detection in `chain_walker.rs` / `project_analyzer.rs` still works with new wrapper structure (extraction reads AST, not runtime)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: compose() API signature
+`compose()` SHALL accept two arguments: a `Slots` record mapping slot names to Animus components, and an options object with a `shared` config. It SHALL return a `ComposedFamily<Slots>` where each slot is a sealed `ForwardRefExoticComponent`.
+
+#### Scenario: Basic compose call
+- **WHEN** `compose({ Root: CardRoot, Header: CardHeader, Body: CardBody }, { shared: { density: true } })` is called
+- **THEN** the result SHALL have keys `Root`, `Header`, `Body`, each mapped to a `ForwardRefExoticComponent` with the slot's original props
+
+#### Scenario: Composed output is sealed
+- **WHEN** a composed family is created
+- **THEN** the output components SHALL NOT have `.extend()` or any builder methods — compose is a one-way door from builder-land to component-land
+
+### Requirement: Root convention — literal "Root" key
+The Root slot SHALL be identified by the exact key `"Root"` (PascalCase, case-sensitive). Any other casing SHALL NOT be treated as Root.
+
+#### Scenario: PascalCase Root detected
+- **WHEN** `compose({ Root: RootComp, Child: ChildComp }, { shared: {} })` is called
+- **THEN** the `Root` slot SHALL be identified as the context provider
+
+#### Scenario: Lowercase root NOT detected as Root
+- **WHEN** `compose({ root: RootComp, child: ChildComp }, { shared: {} })` is called
+- **THEN** no slot SHALL be treated as the context provider — `root` is treated as a regular child slot
+
+#### Scenario: Type-level Root extraction
+- **WHEN** `SharedConfig<Slots>` is computed for slots containing a `"Root"` key
+- **THEN** the shared key options SHALL be derived from Root's variant keys using direct `Slots['Root']` lookup, not case-insensitive matching
+
+### Requirement: Shared variant propagation via React context
+Root SHALL provide shared variant values via React context. Child slots that have matching variant keys SHALL consume from context. Direct props on child slots SHALL override context values.
+
+#### Scenario: Shared variant flows from Root to child
+- **WHEN** `<Family.Root density="compact">` renders with a shared `density` key
+- **THEN** `<Family.Child />` (which has a `density` variant) SHALL receive `density="compact"` from context
+
+#### Scenario: Direct prop overrides context
+- **WHEN** `<Family.Root density="compact">` renders and `<Family.Child density="loose" />` has a direct prop
+- **THEN** the Child SHALL use `density="loose"` (direct prop wins)
+
+#### Scenario: Unknown shared keys don't leak to children
+- **WHEN** Root provides `density` via context but a child slot does NOT have a `density` variant
+- **THEN** the child SHALL NOT receive the `density` prop — unknown props are filtered by `__variantKeys`
+
+### Requirement: Family displayName derivation
+Composed family member displayNames SHALL be stable and predictable. The family name SHALL NOT be derived from displayName regex parsing.
+
+#### Scenario: displayName with explicit name option
+- **WHEN** `compose(slots, { shared: {}, name: 'Card' })` is called
+- **THEN** each slot SHALL have `displayName` of `"Card.Root"`, `"Card.Header"`, etc.
+
+#### Scenario: displayName without name option
+- **WHEN** `compose(slots, { shared: {} })` is called without a `name` option
+- **THEN** each slot SHALL have a stable displayName derived from the Root component's displayName (stripping `animus-` prefix and hash suffix) or fallback to `"Composed"`
+
+### Requirement: React key preservation through wrappers
+Composed components wrapped in `forwardRef` SHALL correctly propagate React keys for list rendering.
+
+#### Scenario: Keys maintained in list rendering
+- **WHEN** a list of `<Family.Root key={id}>` elements is rendered
+- **THEN** React reconciliation SHALL use the keys correctly — reordering the list SHALL not remount components
+
+### Requirement: SharedConfig type constraint
+`SharedConfig<Slots>` SHALL only allow keys that exist as variant props on the Root slot. Non-Root variant keys SHALL NOT be valid shared keys.
+
+#### Scenario: Valid shared key from Root
+- **WHEN** Root has variants `{ density: { compact: {}, loose: {} } }` and shared config is `{ density: true }`
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL accept the shared config
+
+#### Scenario: Invalid shared key not on Root
+- **WHEN** Root does NOT have a `theme` variant but shared config is `{ theme: true }`
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL produce a type error — `theme` is not a valid shared key

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Compose through full extraction pipeline
+The integration test suite SHALL exercise compose() output through the full extraction pipeline: composed components → serialize → `analyzeProject()` → transform → assert slot CSS and shared variant propagation.
+
+#### Scenario: Composed family extracts slot CSS
+- **WHEN** a composed family with Root and child slots is extracted through the full pipeline
+- **THEN** each slot SHALL produce its own CSS rules with distinct class names
+
+#### Scenario: Shared variants produce context-aware CSS
+- **WHEN** a composed Root provides shared variant values and child slots consume them
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain variant rules for each consuming slot
+
+#### Scenario: Compose with strict Root convention
+- **WHEN** integration test fixtures define composed families
+- **THEN** the Root slot SHALL use the literal key `"Root"` (PascalCase), not lowercase `"root"`

+## Why
+
+This consolidates two archived changes — `publishing-surface` (Phase 2) and `next-plugin` — into a single arc covering the remaining work to make Animus distributable and usable in mainstream React environments.
+
+Phase 1 of publishing-surface is done: all publishable packages have metadata, `private: true` removed, `exports`/`files` configured, and first betas are on npm. What remains is the work that enables the extraction pipeline to run outside Vite and that readies the runtime for React 19.
+
+The `@animus-ui/runtime` package is vestigial. `createComponent` and `createClassResolver` have been absorbed into `@animus-ui/system/src/runtime` and are re-exported from the system index. The standalone runtime package exists but is not the live source; it should be cleaned up rather than renamed or published.
+
+## What Changes
+
+### 1. Rust: Configurable Emitter Paths (EmitterConfig)
+
+`transform_emitter.rs` currently hardcodes two strings: `'@animus-ui/system'` (runtime import source) and `'virtual:animus/styles.css'` (CSS module ID). Both must be configurable so the Next.js plugin can inject a real file path instead of a virtual module.
+
+- Add `EmitterConfig` struct (`runtime_import: String`, `css_module_id: String`) deserialized from the manifest JSON
+- `transform_file()` reads emitter config from the manifest and passes it to `apply_replacements`
+- `analyze_project()` forwards emitter config fields through to the manifest
+- Vite plugin constructs the config object before calling `analyze_project` / `transform_file` (backward-compatible defaults: `@animus-ui/system`, `virtual:animus/styles.css`)
+
+### 2. Runtime: React 19 Ref-as-Prop
+
+`packages/system/src/runtime/` currently uses `forwardRef`, which requires `"use client"` in React Server Component trees. React 19 accepts `ref` as a plain prop, making `forwardRef` unnecessary.
+
+- Replace `forwardRef` wrapper in `createComponent` with a plain function that destructures `ref` from props
+- Pass `ref` directly to `createElement` as part of the props object
+- Remove `forwardRef` import
+- Verify ref forwarding behavior and bundle size remains under 1KB gzipped
+- Deprecate and do not publish `packages/runtime/` — its `createComponent` copy is no longer the live source
+
+### 3. Next.js Adapter (`@animus-ui/next-plugin`)
+
+New package providing `withAnimus(nextConfig, options?)` for Next.js Pages Router and App Router projects. Next.js uses webpack; no Turbopack plugin API exists yet.
+
+**Webpack plugin** — runs `analyze_project()` once per build (shared across server/client/edge compilation passes via a module-level promise mutex), writes resolved CSS to `.animus/styles.css` on disk.
+
+**Webpack loader** — calls `transform_file()` per source file using the cached manifest; passes through files with no components unchanged.
+
+**Config wrapper** — `withAnimus()` registers the plugin and loader, composes with any existing `nextConfig.webpack`, and throws a clear error if `system` option is missing.
+
+**Dev HMR** — webpack `watchRun` hook detects changed files; component changes trigger incremental re-analysis; system file changes trigger geological reset (subprocess reload). CSS file write causes webpack to hot-update the stylesheet.
+
+**RSC** — with the React 19 ref-as-prop migration, fully-extracted components are plain functions with no `"use client"` requirement. The Next plugin sets `runtimePackage` in emitter config and passes `.animus/styles.css` as the CSS module ID so the generated import resolves as a real file rather than a virtual module.
+
+**Consumer integration:**
+
+```tsx
+// next.config.ts
+import { withAnimus } from '@animus-ui/next-plugin';
+export default withAnimus({ system: './src/ds.ts' })({ /* nextConfig */ });
+
+// app/layout.tsx or pages/_app.tsx
+import './.animus/styles.css';
+```
+
+### 4. Shared Utilities Extraction
+
+Both the Vite plugin and the Next plugin need the same low-level operations. Extract these from the Vite plugin into a shared internal utility (not a public package):
+
+- `loadSystem()` subprocess logic
+- `applyUnitFallback()` post-processing
+- `__TRANSFORM__` placeholder resolution
+- Diagnostic printing (bail/skip/elimination warnings)
+
+The Vite plugin is refactored to import from the shared utility — no behavioral change.
+
+### 5. Runtime Package Cleanup
+
+`packages/runtime/` contains a stale copy of `createComponent` and is no longer the authoritative source. Do not publish it. Options:
+
+- Remove the directory entirely, or
+- Keep it with `private: true` and a deprecation notice (safer for any internal tooling that references the path)
+
+The live `createComponent` is in `packages/system/src/runtime/`.
+
+## Packages That Ship
+
+| Package | Role | Framework-specific? |
+|---------|------|---------------------|
+| `@animus-ui/system` | Authoring surface + runtime shim | No (React peer dep) |
+| `@animus-ui/vite-plugin` | Vite build integration | No |
+| `@animus-ui/next-plugin` | Next.js / webpack build integration | Next.js |
+| `@animus-ui/extract` | Rust NAPI crate (build-time dep) | No |
+
+## Packages That Do Not Ship
+
+| Package | Reason |
+|---------|--------|
+| `@animus-ui/runtime` | Absorbed into system. Stale copy. |
+| `@animus-ui/theming` | Re-exported through system. Internal dep only. |
+| `@animus-ui/core` | Old Emotion-based builder. Not used by extraction pipeline. |
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `next-webpack-integration`: Webpack plugin + loader for Next.js build lifecycle
+- `next-config-wrapper`: `withAnimus()` config wrapper with system path resolution
+- `next-dev-hmr`: Incremental re-analysis and CSS regeneration in Next.js dev mode
+- `next-rsc-compatibility`: RSC-compatible extracted components via ref-as-prop + real CSS file
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `extraction-emitter-config`: `transform_emitter.rs` runtime import and CSS module ID become configurable via manifest JSON — shared requirement for both Vite and Next plugins
+- `extraction-runtime-shim`: `createComponent` migrates from `forwardRef` to React 19 ref-as-prop plain function
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/extract/src/transform_emitter.rs`**: `EmitterConfig` struct, runtime import and css_module_id read from config
+- **`packages/extract/src/lib.rs`**: `transform_file` and `analyze_project` accept emitter config in manifest JSON
+- **`packages/system/src/runtime/`**: `forwardRef` removed, ref-as-prop pattern
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/`**: Constructs emitter config; core logic extracted to shared utilities
+- **`packages/next-plugin/`**: New package — webpack plugin, loader, config wrapper
+- **`packages/runtime/`**: Deprecated, not published
+- **No changes to**: system builder, theming, CSS generation, @layer cascade, showcase

+## Why
+
+Pre-built prop groups (`space`, `color`, `typography`, `border`, `shadows`, etc.) hardcode scale names as string literals. A consumer who names their spacing scale `"sizing"` instead of `"space"` must recreate all ~15 margin/padding entries by hand. The `Prop.scale` field is typed as `string` — no compile-time guarantee that a scale name matches what actually exists in the consumer's augmented `Theme`.
+
+This replaces the archived `2026-03-29-group-scale-factories` proposal, which referenced the deleted `PropertyBuilder` class.
+
+## What Changes
+
+**Step 1: Group factory functions**
+
+Groups that reference a single scale become factory functions parameterized by that scale name:
+
+```ts
+// Before — hardcoded
+export const shadows = {
+  boxShadow: { property: 'boxShadow', scale: 'shadows' },
+  shadow:    { property: 'boxShadow', scale: 'shadows' },
+  textShadow: { property: 'textShadow', scale: 'shadows' },
+} as const;
+
+// After — factory
+export function shadowsGroup<S extends string>(scale: S) {
+  return {
+    boxShadow:  { property: 'boxShadow',  scale } as const,
+    shadow:     { property: 'boxShadow',  scale } as const,
+    textShadow: { property: 'textShadow', scale } as const,
+  } as const;
+}
+
+// Backward-compat static export (unchanged consumer API)
+export const shadows = shadowsGroup('shadows');
+```
+
+Groups that reference multiple scales accept a mapping object:
+
+```ts
+export function typographyGroup<
+  M extends { fonts: string; fontWeights: string; fontSizes: string; lineHeights: string; letterSpacings: string }
+>(scales: M) {
+  return {
+    fontFamily:    { property: 'fontFamily',    scale: scales.fonts },
+    fontWeight:    { property: 'fontWeight',    scale: scales.fontWeights },
+    fontSize:      { property: 'fontSize',      scale: scales.fontSizes },
+    lineHeight:    { property: 'lineHeight',    scale: scales.lineHeights },
+    letterSpacing: { property: 'letterSpacing', scale: scales.letterSpacings },
+    // ...rest
+  } as const;
+}
+
+export const typography = typographyGroup({
+  fonts: 'fonts', fontWeights: 'fontWeights', fontSizes: 'fontSizes',
+  lineHeights: 'lineHeights', letterSpacings: 'letterSpacings',
+});
+```
+
+Groups with no scale references (`flex`, `grid`, `background`, `layout`) remain static objects — no factory needed.
+
+**The `as const` return preserves literal scale names** so they flow through `ScaleValue` type machinery and validate correctly against the augmented `Theme` interface.
+
+**Step 2: addGroup scale validation (future, not this change)**
+
+`SystemBuilder.addGroup` gains a `ValidateScales<Conf>` conditional type that emits type errors when any `Prop.scale` value in the group config does not match `keyof TokenScales<Theme>`. This only fires in consumer code after `declare module` augmentation — library-internal defaults are unaffected.
+
+## Scale map
+
+| Group | Scale params |
+|-------|-------------|
+| `space` | `space` (single) |
+| `color` | `{ colors, gradients }` |
+| `border` | `{ borders, borderWidths, radii }` |
+| `shadows` | `shadows` (single) |
+| `typography` | `{ fonts, fontWeights, fontSizes, lineHeights, letterSpacings }` |
+| `positioning` | `{ zIndices, opacities }` |
+| `transitions` | `transitions` (single) |
+| `flex`, `grid`, `background`, `layout` | static (no scales) |
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New
+- `group-scale-factories`: Factory functions for adapting pre-built prop groups to consumer-defined scale names
+
+### Modified
+- `prop-system`: Pre-built group static exports redefined as factory invocations with canonical scale names
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/system/src/groups/index.ts` — factory functions added, statics become factory invocations
+- `packages/system/src/index.ts` — factory functions exported from package
+- Type tests — assertions for factory-created groups resolving custom scale names against augmented `Theme`
+- Showcase — no change (uses canonical scale names; static exports remain identical)
+- Rust pipeline — no change (scale names are strings regardless of origin)
+- Consumer API — purely additive; static group objects still work unchanged

+## Approach
+
+### Transform Return Type Guard
+
+The `Prop` interface is shared infrastructure — used by both group definitions (from core, wide type including CSSObject) and `.props()` calls (consumer-authored custom props). Narrowing `Prop` directly breaks group compatibility because core's Prop allows CSSObject returns.
+
+**Solution**: Create `CustomPropConfig extends Prop` that overrides `transform` with a narrower return type (`string | number` only). Apply this constraint only at the `.props()` method boundary in both `Animus.ts` and `AnimusExtended.ts`. This is covariant-safe: `() => string | number` satisfies `() => string | number | CSSObject`.
+
+The TODO documents the future expansion to CSSObject for rule-level transforms (one input prop mapping to multiple CSS declarations, e.g. font-smoothing → -webkit-font-smoothing + -moz-osx-font-smoothing).
+
+### CI Publish Loop
+
+`@animus-ui/properties` was created in the `properties-package` change but the CI workflow predated it. Properties publishes first in the TS package loop since both system and extract depend on it at runtime.
+
+### Legacy Package Isolation
+
+`@animus-ui/components` (packages/ui/) and `@animus-ui/runtime` are deprecated per CLAUDE.md ("not in build pipeline"). Adding `private: true` prevents accidental `npm publish`.

+## Why
+
+Session 46 audit of RC readiness surfaced three gaps: (1) `.props()` transform return type allows CSSObject which the extraction pipeline doesn't handle yet, (2) `@animus-ui/properties` package missing from CI publish loops despite being a runtime dependency of both system and extract, (3) deprecated packages (ui/, runtime/) not marked private, risking accidental publish.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Add `CustomPropConfig` type guard restricting `.props()` transform returns to `string | number` (CSSObject expansion tracked via TODO for rule-level transforms)
+- Add `properties` to CI version-bump and publish loops in dependency-first position
+- Mark `@animus-ui/components` (ui/) and `@animus-ui/runtime` as `private: true`
+- Update system CLAUDE.md to document the properties runtime dependency
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- None — changes are type-level guard, CI config, and documentation. No behavioral changes to extraction or runtime.
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/system/src/types/config.ts` — new `CustomPropConfig` interface
+- `packages/system/src/Animus.ts` — `.props()` constraint narrowed
+- `packages/system/src/AnimusExtended.ts` — `.props()` constraint narrowed
+- `packages/system/src/index.ts` — export `CustomPropConfig`
+- `packages/system/__tests__/types.test-d.tsx` — positive + negative type assertions
+- `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` — properties in publish loops
+- `packages/ui/package.json` — private: true
+- `packages/runtime/package.json` — private: true
+- `packages/system/CLAUDE.md` — updated dependency documentation

+## Why
+
+The monorepo has a working CI release job (tag-driven, builds Rust matrix, publishes to npm) but no local workflow for creating releases. Version bumping requires manually editing 5+ package.json files, computing the next semver, creating a tag, and pushing. Meanwhile, legacy packages (core, theming) are still in the publish pipeline despite being absorbed into system at the source level — publishing them risks consumer confusion.
+
+## What Changes
+
+### 1. Release script (`scripts/release.sh`)
+
+A single command — `bun release <bump>` — that handles the full local ceremony:
+
+- Parses current version from the latest valid semver git tag
+- Computes next version via standard semver bump types: `patch`, `minor`, `major`, `prepatch`, `preminor`, `premajor`, `prerelease`, `graduate`
+- Stamps `.version` in all publishable package.json files
+- Commits (`release: v<version>`), tags (`v<version>`), and pushes (commit + tag)
+- CI takes over from the tag push — no auto-publish on merge
+
+Guards:
+- Must be on `main` branch
+- Working tree must be clean
+- `--dry-run` flag previews without touching anything
+- `--channel <name>` overrides the prerelease identifier (default: `next`)
+
+### 2. Publish surface narrowed
+
+5 packages ship: `properties`, `system`, `extract`, `vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`.
+
+3 packages removed from publish pipeline:
+- `core` — legacy Emotion-based builder, source absorbed into system
+- `theming` — legacy theme builder, source absorbed into system
+- (runtime and ui were already marked private in rc-surface-hardening)
+
+### 3. Fixed versioning
+
+All publishable packages share one version derived from the git tag. CI already implements this — the release script matches. Independent versioning adds no value for a tightly coupled system with a single author.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `release-script`: Local release automation via `bun release <bump>`. Semver arithmetic, tag creation, package.json stamping, branch/cleanliness guards.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `ci-release-pipeline`: Version-bump and publish loops narrowed from 7 packages to 5. core and theming removed.
+- `legacy-package-isolation`: core and theming marked `private: true`, preventing accidental publish.
+
+## Impact
+
+- `scripts/release.sh` — new file, release automation
+- `package.json` (root) — `release` script alias added
+- `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` — version-bump loop and publish loop narrowed to 5 packages
+- `packages/core/package.json` — `private: true` added
+- `packages/theming/package.json` — `private: true` added
+- No changes to: builder chain, extraction pipeline, runtime, type system, tests

+## Context
+
+The Rust crate currently emits per-layer CSS strings via `CssSheets` (base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom). These are concatenated into a single CSS output for the virtual module. The manifest maps `component_id → ComponentDescriptor` but does not associate individual CSS fragments with component IDs — the CSS is only available as pre-concatenated layer strings.
+
+The key architectural insight: component CSS uses hash-scoped selectors (`.animus-Card-abc123`) that can never cascade-conflict across components. Source order between components is meaningless within any layer. Only the system layer has shared selectors (`.animus-u-50e5d508`) with ordering dependencies. This means component CSS is inherently safe to split into independently-loadable chunks, while system CSS must remain global.
+
+The showcase build already validates single-file delivery (5 JS chunks, 1 CSS file). Industry consensus (Tailwind, StyleX, Panda) is single-file delivery for static extraction. This proposal extends beyond that by exploiting hash scoping to enable what others cannot.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Per-component CSS addressability in the manifest (component_id → CSS fragments)
+- Opt-in route-level CSS chunking in the Vite plugin
+- Global chunk (declaration + variables + globals + system) always loads first
+- Component CSS chunks load per-route, order-independent
+- Shared component deduplication (components on multiple routes hoisted)
+- Single-file mode remains default — zero behavioral change for existing consumers
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Per-component lazy loading (too granular, network overhead exceeds benefit)
+- Dynamic CSS loading at runtime (no JS-driven stylesheet injection)
+- Splitting the system layer (ordering-dependent, must stay global)
+- Splitting theme variables (must precede all component CSS)
+- Next.js/webpack support in this change (future — Vite only first)
+- Critical CSS extraction / above-the-fold optimization (orthogonal concern)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Per-component CSS map in the manifest
+
+**Choice:** Add a `component_css` field to the manifest: `HashMap<String, ComponentCssFragments>` where `ComponentCssFragments` contains per-layer CSS strings for that single component.
+
+**Why:** The manifest is already the bridge between Rust extraction and bundler plugins. Adding per-component CSS here keeps the architecture consistent. The existing concatenated `CssSheets` stays for single-file mode — the per-component map is additive.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Emitting separate CSS files per component from Rust. Too granular — the bundler plugin should decide grouping based on route information the Rust crate doesn't have.
+
+### Decision 2: Bundler plugin owns route grouping
+
+**Choice:** The Vite plugin uses Rollup's chunk graph (available in `generateBundle` hook) to determine which components are in which route chunk. It groups component CSS by route and emits CSS assets via `this.emitFile()`.
+
+**Why:** The Rust crate has no route awareness — it sees files, not routes. The bundler knows the import graph and chunk boundaries. This keeps route logic in the bundler layer where it belongs.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Requiring the consumer to declare route → component mappings. Too manual, error-prone, and couples the CSS splitting to the routing config.
+
+### Decision 3: Global chunk via existing virtual module
+
+**Choice:** `virtual:animus/styles.css` becomes the global chunk: @layer declaration + theme variables + global styles + system utilities. Component CSS moves to per-route chunk files.
+
+**Why:** The virtual module already has the right semantics — imported once at the root, always in the entry chunk. Changing its content from "everything" to "global only" is backward compatible in behavior (all styles still load, just from multiple files).
+
+### Decision 4: Shared component hoisting threshold
+
+**Choice:** Components used on more than N routes (configurable, default 2) are hoisted to the global chunk. This prevents the same component CSS from duplicating across many route chunks.
+
+**Why:** Button, Card, Text — common components appear on every route. Including them in every route chunk wastes bytes. Hoisting to the global chunk means one copy. The threshold is configurable because the right cutoff depends on app size.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Always deduplicating into a shared chunk (separate from global). More files, more `<link>` tags, more complexity. Hoisting to global is simpler and the global chunk is already cached.
+
+### Decision 5: @layer blocks span chunks safely
+
+**Choice:** Each route chunk wraps its component CSS in the appropriate `@layer` blocks. Multiple `@layer base { ... }` blocks across chunks are valid — the CSS spec says subsequent blocks append to the existing layer.
+
+**Why:** The @layer declaration in the global chunk locks ordering. Route chunks just append rules. Even if route chunks load in any order, inter-layer ordering is guaranteed and intra-layer ordering is irrelevant (hash-scoped selectors).
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[More HTTP requests]** → Each route loads 1 additional CSS file. Mitigation: HTTP/2 multiplexing makes this cheap. The global chunk is cached after first load. Route chunks are small (only that route's components).
+
+**[FOUC on route navigation]** → Client-side navigation to a new route loads a new CSS chunk. If CSS loads after JS renders, unstyled flash. Mitigation: framework-level prefetching (React Router `prefetch="intent"`, Next.js automatic prefetch). The CSS file is typically tiny and loads faster than the JS chunk.
+
+**[Shared component threshold tuning]** → Wrong threshold = either too much duplication (threshold too high) or global chunk too large (threshold too low). Mitigation: configurable, with a sensible default (2). Provide build report showing chunk sizes.
+
+**[Rollup chunk graph stability]** → Rollup's chunk assignments can change between builds if the import graph changes. A component might move between route chunk and global chunk. Mitigation: content-hash filenames ensure cache invalidation. The CSS content is deterministic regardless of which chunk it's in.
+
+**[Extension chains across routes]** → If Card is on route A and FancyCard (extends Card) is on route B, both have self-contained CSS (extension merged at extraction time). No cross-chunk dependency. This is safe by construction.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+1. **Should per-route CSS be `<link>` tags or inline `<style>`?** Inline avoids the FOUC on navigation but doesn't cache. `<link>` caches but needs prefetching. Leaning toward `<link>` with framework prefetching.
+
+2. **How does this interact with SSR streaming?** The global chunk is in the shell HTML. Route CSS could be injected as `<link>` tags when the route's Suspense boundary resolves. React 19's `precedence` system handles this but has known bugs. Needs empirical validation.
+
+3. **What's the minimum app size where splitting pays off?** Single-file is simpler. At what component count does the per-route saving exceed the overhead of additional HTTP requests? Likely 50+ components across 5+ routes, but needs measurement.
+
+4. **Should we emit a build report?** Showing global chunk size, per-route chunk sizes, which components were hoisted. Useful for tuning the threshold.

+## Why
+
+At scale — hundreds of components across many routes — loading ALL component CSS upfront is wasteful. Hash-scoped component selectors (`.animus-Card-abc123--variant-fill`) can never cascade-conflict with selectors from other components, meaning source order between components is meaningless. Only the system layer (shared utility classes) has intra-layer ordering dependencies. This means we can split component CSS per route without cascade risk — something no other static extraction framework can do because their utility/atomic classes are shared globals with ordering dependencies.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Rust crate emits per-component CSS fragments (not just per-layer concatenation) associable to component_id in the manifest
+- Bundler plugins gain an opt-in `cssSplitting` mode that emits a global chunk (declaration + variables + globals + system) and per-route component CSS chunks
+- Per-route chunks contain only the base/variants/compounds/states/custom CSS for components in that route's JS import subgraph
+- Components shared across multiple routes are hoisted to a shared chunk or the global chunk (deduplication)
+- Single-file delivery remains the default — route splitting is opt-in
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `per-component-css-output`: Rust crate associates CSS fragments with component_id rather than only emitting concatenated per-layer strings. Each component's base/variants/compounds/states/custom CSS is individually addressable.
+- `route-css-chunking`: Bundler plugin groups per-component CSS into route-aligned chunks based on the JS import graph. Global chunk always loads first. Per-route chunks are order-independent.
+- `css-chunk-deduplication`: Components used across multiple routes are deduplicated into a shared chunk, preventing the same component CSS from appearing in multiple route chunks.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `structured-css-sheets`: `CssSheets` gains per-component granularity alongside the existing per-layer strings. The per-layer fields remain for single-file mode.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Plugin gains `cssSplitting` option. When enabled, emits multiple CSS assets instead of one virtual module. Default behavior unchanged.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Rust crate** (`css_generator.rs`, `project_analyzer.rs`): Per-component CSS output alongside existing per-layer concatenation. Manifest gains component → CSS fragment mapping.
+- **Vite plugin**: New `cssSplitting` option. When enabled, uses Rollup's `emitFile` to produce per-route CSS chunks. Global chunk via existing virtual module.
+- **Next plugin** (future): Same `cssSplitting` option via webpack `emitFile`.
+- **No changes to**: extraction pipeline, builder chain, runtime, theming, prop system. This is purely a CSS delivery concern.
+- **Prerequisite**: `tiered-cascade-key` should land first for system layer correctness under any splitting scenario.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Shared component hoisting

+
+#### Scenario: Button used on 3 routes
+- **WHEN** `Button` component is imported by routes `/home`, `/about`, and `/dashboard`, and the hoisting threshold is 2
+- **THEN** `Button`'s component CSS SHALL appear in the global chunk, not in any route chunk

+- **WHEN** `Table` component is imported only by route `/dashboard`, and the hoisting threshold is 2
+- **THEN** `Table`'s component CSS SHALL appear in the `/dashboard` route chunk only
+
+#### Scenario: Custom threshold
+- **WHEN** `cssSplitting: { hoistThreshold: 5 }` is configured
+- **THEN** only components used on 5 or more routes SHALL be hoisted to the global chunk
+
+### Requirement: No duplicate component CSS across chunks
+A component's CSS SHALL appear in exactly one chunk — either the global chunk (if hoisted) or a single route chunk (if route-specific). No duplication.
+
+#### Scenario: Component in exactly one place
+- **WHEN** route splitting is enabled and component `Card` is used on routes `/home` and `/about`
+- **THEN** `Card`'s CSS SHALL appear in either the global chunk (if above threshold) or a shared route chunk, but never duplicated in both `/home` and `/about` chunks

+- [ ] 4.5 Inject `<link>` references for route CSS assets into the corresponding JS chunks (or rely on framework-level CSS discovery)
+
+## 5. Deduplication
+
+- [ ] 5.1 Count component usage across output chunks — build `component_id → Set<chunk_names>` map
+- [ ] 5.2 Components above hoisting threshold → add to global chunk, exclude from route chunks
+- [ ] 5.3 Components in exactly one chunk → include in that route chunk
+- [ ] 5.4 Components in 2+ chunks but below threshold → include in a shared chunk or the first chunk encountered (design decision to finalize)
+
+## 6. Feasibility Validation
+
+- [ ] 6.1 Build showcase with `cssSplitting: true`, inspect output: verify global chunk + per-route CSS files
+- [ ] 6.2 Verify route chunks contain only their components' CSS (no system utilities, no theme variables)
+- [ ] 6.3 Verify loading route chunks in any order produces correct rendering (manual test)
+- [ ] 6.4 Measure: compare total CSS bytes (single file vs split) and initial page load CSS bytes
+- [ ] 6.5 Verify `bun run verify` still passes with splitting disabled (default path unchanged)

+## Why
+
+The system has vocabulary for CSS properties (prop registry via `.addGroup()` / `.addProps()`) and theme values (token scales), but no vocabulary for DOM targeting patterns. Component authors repeatedly write raw attribute selectors (`'&[data-state="open"]'`, `'&[disabled]'`, `'&[aria-expanded="true"]'`) — strings that are verbose, typo-prone, and inconsistent across components. Selectors need the same "register once, use everywhere" treatment that props and tokens already have.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **New builder method**: `.addSelectors()` registers a map of shorthand names to CSS selectors. Sits in the `createSystem()` chain alongside `.addGroup()` and `.addProps()` — vocabulary, not cascade layers, not CSS emission.
+- **Shorthand syntax in style objects**: `'&:open': { ... }` expands to `'&[data-state="open"]': { ... }` when `open` is a registered selector. Usable in any style position (`.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()`, `.compound()`). The cascade layer is determined by WHERE the shorthand appears, not by the selector itself.
+- **Extraction-time resolution**: The Rust crate and Vite plugin expand selector shorthands to full attribute selectors during CSS generation. Zero runtime cost.
+- **Serialization**: `SerializedConfig` gains a `selectors` field carrying the registry to the extraction pipeline.
+- **Type safety**: Registered selector names surface as autocomplete in style object keys via `&:${keyof SelectorReg}` — arbitrary string selectors remain valid, registered names appear as suggestions.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `selector-registry`: `.addSelectors()` on `SystemBuilder`. Defines the registry API, `&:name` shorthand expansion rules, type narrowing, and serialization contract.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `system-builder`: Gains `.addSelectors()` in the builder chain and a third generic parameter `SelectorReg extends Record<string, string>`.
+- `system-serialization`: `SerializedConfig` gains `selectors?: Record<string, string>` field.
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: Selector shorthand expansion during CSS generation — `&:name` keys resolved to `&<registered-value>` in emitted CSS.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Passes selector registry from serialized config through to extraction pipeline.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/system/`**: `SystemBuilder` gains `.addSelectors()` and a third generic. `SerializedConfig` gains `selectors` field.
+- **`packages/extract/`**: CSS generator expands `&:name` keys when a matching registered selector exists.
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/`**: Passes selector registry from loaded system config to Rust extraction calls.
+- **No runtime impact**: Selectors are resolved at extraction time. `createComponent` is unchanged.
+- **No cascade changes**: `@layer global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom` unchanged. Selectors are vocabulary consumed BY layers.
+
+## Notes
+
+Replaces the archived 2026-03-29-selector-registry proposal, which referenced `.withSelectors()`, `.withProperties()`, and `.withGlobalStyles()` — all deleted in the `flatten-system-builder` refactor. The core idea is unchanged; only the builder API surface has been updated to match the current `.add*()` chain pattern.

+## Context
+
+The showcase docs site has 18 routable markdown pages across 8 sections. Every page uses an identical 6-line `.tsx` wrapper that imports `MarkdownContent` and a `.md?raw` file. `App.tsx` has 18 corresponding `lazy()` imports and ~200 lines of manual `<Route>` elements. `docsNav.ts` independently defines the same structure for sidebar navigation.
+
+Three files must stay in sync to add one page. The wrappers carry zero logic — they exist only because React Router needs a component and Vite needs an import statement.
+
+### Current file count
+- 18 content `.md` files in `content/`
+- 18 wrapper `.tsx` files in `pages/` subdirectories (+ 12 dead files in `pages/_archive/`)
+- 1 `App.tsx` with 18 lazy imports + route tree
+- 1 `docsNav.ts` with nav structure
+
+### Constraints
+- Non-docs pages (`Home.tsx`, `Examples.tsx`) are custom React components — they stay manual
+- `MarkdownContent` component is unchanged — it takes `{ source: string }` and renders via react-markdown
+- The 4 reference pages (`BuilderChain`, `CreateTheme`, `CreateSystem`, `Compose`) are also identical wrappers — they get the same treatment
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Adding a doc page = 1 `.md` file + 1 nav entry in `docsNav.ts`
+- Single source of truth: `docsNav.ts` drives both navigation and routing
+- Delete all boilerplate wrapper components and archive files
+- Flatten single-file content directories where the directory adds no information
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- File-system routing (would require a Vite plugin like vite-plugin-pages — overkill for 18 pages)
+- Auto-generating nav from file structure (nav ordering and labels need to be explicit)
+- Changing MarkdownContent, the markdown rendering pipeline, or any styling
+- Changing non-docs routes (Home, Examples)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Content resolution: URL path convention
+
+**Decision:** Derive the `.md` file path from the URL path by convention.
+
+URL `/docs/authoring/base-styling` → content file `content/authoring/base-styling.md`
+
+The glob `import.meta.glob('../content/**/*.md', { query: '?raw', eager: true })` returns a record keyed by relative file path. Strip the prefix/suffix to get a content key, match it against the URL path segment after `/docs/`.
+
+**Special case:** The docs index route (`/docs`) maps to `content/introduction.md` (after flattening `content/overview/`). This is one hard-coded mapping in the content resolver.
+
+**Why not add a `content` field to NavItem?** Convention is simpler and keeps the nav config focused on display concerns. The one special case (index) doesn't justify adding a field to every entry.
+
+### 2. Eager glob loading
+
+**Decision:** Use `eager: true` to load all `.md` content at build time.
+
+```ts
+const contentModules = import.meta.glob('../content/**/*.md', {
+  query: '?raw',
+  import: 'default',
+  eager: true,
+}) as Record<string, string>;
+```
+
+**Trade-off:** Currently each page is a separate lazy chunk. With eager loading, all ~180KB of raw markdown text lands in one chunk. This is acceptable because:
+- The text compresses well (gzip ~30-40KB)
+- `react-markdown` + `remarkGfm` are already in the shared chunk (used by every page)
+- Instant page transitions are better UX for a docs site than loading spinners
+- The showcase is a dev/docs tool, not a public-facing product site where every KB matters
+
+**Alternative considered:** `eager: false` returns `() => Promise<string>`, preserving code splitting. But this requires Suspense boundaries, loading states, and more complex component logic — all to save ~30KB gzipped on initial load of a docs site. Not worth it.
+
+### 3. Route generation from nav config
+
+**Decision:** A utility function walks `docsNav.ts` and generates `<Route>` elements.
+
+```
+docsNav entry with path "/docs/authoring/base-styling"
+  → Route path="base-styling" element={<DocPage contentKey="authoring/base-styling" />}
+```
+
+Sections with children get a parent `<Route path="section">` with an index redirect to the first child (preserving current behavior).
+
+`App.tsx` replaces ~200 lines of manual routes with a single `{generateDocRoutes(DOCS_NAV, contentModules)}` call inside the docs layout route.
+
+### 4. Single DocPage component
+
+**Decision:** One component replaces all 18 wrappers:
+
+```tsx
+function DocPage({ contentKey }: { contentKey: string }) {
+  const content = contentModules[resolveContentPath(contentKey)];
+  if (!content) return <NotFound />;
+  return <MarkdownContent source={content} />;
+}
+```
+
+This lives in `App.tsx` or a small utility file — it's ~5 lines, not worth a separate module.
+
+### 5. Directory flattening
+
+**Decision:** Flatten `content/overview/` → move `introduction.md` to `content/introduction.md`. The `overview/` directory contained a single file and the URL path is `/docs` (index), not `/docs/overview/introduction`, so the directory added no structural information.
+
+`content/support/` stays as-is — it maps to the URL segment `/docs/support/troubleshooting` and may gain siblings.
+
+### 6. GettingStarted.tsx
+
+**Decision:** `GettingStarted.tsx` is also an identical wrapper (`content/getting-started.md?raw`). It gets the same treatment — deleted, content resolved dynamically. The nav entry path `/docs/start` maps to content key `getting-started` — this is the second convention exception alongside the index route.
+
+Actually, we can make this cleaner: rename the content file to `content/start.md` to match the URL path. Then NO special cases except the index route.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **Bundle size increase (~30KB gzip):** All markdown content loads eagerly instead of per-page chunks. Acceptable for a docs site. If the content grows significantly (50+ pages), revisit lazy loading.  → Mitigation: monitor bundle size in CI.
+
+- **Lost lazy loading for MarkdownContent itself:** Currently each page lazy-imports its wrapper, which pulls in MarkdownContent. With eager content, MarkdownContent moves to the main chunk. → Mitigation: MarkdownContent + react-markdown are already effectively shared across all doc routes; Vite likely hoists them anyway.
+
+- **Content key mismatches:** If a nav path doesn't match a content file, the page silently shows NotFound. → Mitigation: the route generator can warn at dev time if a nav entry has no matching content file. Or a build-time check.

+## Why
+
+Adding a documentation page currently requires creating 3 files: a `.md` content file, a `.tsx` wrapper component (identical 6-line boilerplate every time), and a route entry in `App.tsx`. All 18 doc page wrappers are identical — they import `MarkdownContent`, import the `.md` file with `?raw`, and return `<MarkdownContent source={content} />`. This is pure mechanical duplication that makes the docs structure harder to maintain and more error-prone to extend. Additionally, `pages/_archive/` contains 12 dead page components from prior reorgs.
+
+Goal: adding a page = drop a `.md` file + add a nav entry in `docsNav.ts`.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Replace 18 identical page wrapper components with a single `DocPage` component that resolves content dynamically using `import.meta.glob('.../*.md', { query: '?raw', eager: true })`
+- Replace 18 lazy imports + manual Route definitions in `App.tsx` with route generation driven by `docsNav.ts`
+- `docsNav.ts` becomes the single source of truth for both navigation AND routing
+- Delete `pages/_archive/` (12 dead components from prior reorgs)
+- Delete all per-page wrapper `.tsx` files in `pages/overview/`, `pages/compiler/`, `pages/architecture/`, `pages/authoring/`, `pages/advanced/`, `pages/support/`
+- Flatten `content/overview/` (single file `introduction.md`) — move to `content/introduction.md`
+- Non-markdown pages (`Home.tsx`, `Examples.tsx`) remain unchanged
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `dynamic-doc-routing`: Convention-based content resolution from URL path to `.md` file via `import.meta.glob`. Single `DocPage` component, route tree generated from nav config.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+<!-- No existing spec-level requirements change. The docs rendering behavior (MarkdownContent, syntax highlighting, nav) is unchanged. -->
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Showcase package only** — no changes to system, extract, vite-plugin, or core
+- `App.tsx` — significant rewrite of docs route section (non-docs routes unchanged)
+- `docsNav.ts` — may gain a content path mapping or rely on URL→file convention
+- `pages/` — 18 wrapper files + 12 archive files deleted, 1 new `DocPage.tsx` created
+- `content/overview/` — directory removed, `introduction.md` moved up one level
+- No dependency changes — `import.meta.glob` is a Vite built-in

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Content resolution from URL path
+The system SHALL resolve markdown content for doc pages by deriving the content file path from the URL path using the convention: URL segment after `/docs/` maps to `content/<segment>.md`.
+
+#### Scenario: Standard page resolution
+- **WHEN** a user navigates to `/docs/authoring/base-styling`
+- **THEN** the system renders the content from `content/authoring/base-styling.md`
+
+#### Scenario: Docs index resolution
+- **WHEN** a user navigates to `/docs` (index route)
+- **THEN** the system renders the content from `content/introduction.md`
+
+#### Scenario: Missing content file
+- **WHEN** a URL path has no matching `.md` file in the content directory
+- **THEN** the system renders the NotFound component
+
+### Requirement: Nav-driven route generation
+The system SHALL generate all doc `<Route>` elements from the `DOCS_NAV` configuration in `docsNav.ts`. No manual route definitions for markdown doc pages SHALL exist in `App.tsx`.
+
+#### Scenario: Leaf nav entry produces a route
+- **WHEN** `DOCS_NAV` contains `{ label: 'TypeScript', path: '/docs/advanced/typescript' }`
+- **THEN** a `<Route path="typescript">` is generated that renders `DocPage` with the resolved content
+
+#### Scenario: Section with children produces parent route with index redirect
+- **WHEN** `DOCS_NAV` contains a section with `path: '/docs/authoring'` and children
+- **THEN** a `<Route path="authoring">` is generated with an index `<Navigate>` to the first child's path
+
+#### Scenario: All 18 existing doc pages remain routable
+- **WHEN** the nav config contains all current entries
+- **THEN** every URL that worked before the change continues to resolve to the same content
+
+### Requirement: Single DocPage component
+The system SHALL use a single `DocPage` component for all markdown doc pages. No per-page wrapper `.tsx` files SHALL exist.
+
+#### Scenario: DocPage renders MarkdownContent
+- **WHEN** `DocPage` receives a valid content key
+- **THEN** it passes the raw markdown string to `<MarkdownContent source={content} />`
+
+#### Scenario: No per-page wrappers remain
+- **WHEN** the change is complete
+- **THEN** `pages/overview/`, `pages/compiler/`, `pages/architecture/`, `pages/authoring/`, `pages/advanced/`, `pages/support/` directories contain no files (or are deleted)
+
+### Requirement: Eager content loading
+The system SHALL load all markdown content eagerly at build time using `import.meta.glob` with `eager: true`. No lazy loading or Suspense boundaries SHALL be required for doc page content.
+
+#### Scenario: All content available without network requests
+- **WHEN** the docs layout mounts
+- **THEN** navigating between doc pages does not trigger additional network requests for content
+
+### Requirement: Dead code removal
+All files in `pages/_archive/` SHALL be deleted. All per-page wrapper `.tsx` files replaced by dynamic routing SHALL be deleted.
+
+#### Scenario: Archive cleanup
+- **WHEN** the change is complete
+- **THEN** `pages/_archive/` does not exist
+
+#### Scenario: Wrapper cleanup
+- **WHEN** the change is complete
+- **THEN** no `.tsx` file exists whose sole purpose is importing a `.md?raw` file and rendering `MarkdownContent`
+
+### Requirement: Content directory flattening
+`content/overview/introduction.md` SHALL be moved to `content/introduction.md`. The `content/overview/` directory SHALL be removed.
+
+#### Scenario: Introduction file relocated
+- **WHEN** the change is complete
+- **THEN** `content/introduction.md` exists and `content/overview/` does not

+## Context
+
+Animus style objects currently accept raw CSS selector strings like `'&:hover': { ... }` for pseudo-state and pseudo-element targeting. These are untyped, require the author to remember exact CSS syntax, and have no equivalent at the component callsite. The extraction pipeline handles `&`-leading selectors but silently skips non-leading `&` patterns (e.g. `h1 + &`).
+
+With the discovery that CSS `@layer` makes specificity invariant across layers, there is renewed pressure to provide typed, layer-aware pseudo-state/element support at every level of the system — from component authoring through to callsite consumption.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Single `_`-prefixed vocabulary for pseudo selectors, usable in `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.compound()`, `.states()`, and callsite props
+- Built-in alias set that covers 90% of use cases out of the box
+- User-extensible registry via `createSystem().addSelectors()` for project-specific selectors
+- Prop shorthand resolution inside alias blocks
+- `_before`/`_after` auto-default `content: ''`
+- Extraction pipeline support (Rust-side key recognition and selector expansion)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Deprecating raw `'&:hover'` syntax — it remains for edge cases and custom selectors
+- `css` escape hatch prop — separate concern, not part of this change
+- Callsite extraction of system props (system props remain runtime; this change adds pseudo-state support to the runtime resolver, not to the extraction pipeline's JSX walker)
+- Group/peer selectors (`_groupHover`, `_peerFocus`) — future expansion, not in initial set
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Built-in alias set and compound selectors
+
+The built-in set ships as defaults on every system. Aliases map to one or more CSS selectors joined with `,`.
+
+```ts
+const BUILT_IN_SELECTORS = {
+  // Interactive
+  _hover:        '&:hover',
+  _focus:        '&:focus',
+  _active:       '&:active',
+  _focusVisible: '&:focus-visible',
+  _focusWithin:  '&:focus-within',
+  _visited:      '&:visited',
+  _target:       '&:target',
+
+  // Disabled — compound selector covering all common patterns
+  _disabled:     '&:disabled, &[disabled], &[aria-disabled="true"], &[data-disabled]',
+
+  // Other form states
+  _checked:      '&:checked, &[aria-checked="true"], &[data-checked]',
+  _invalid:      '&:invalid, &[aria-invalid="true"], &[data-invalid]',
+  _required:     '&:required, &[aria-required="true"]',
+  _readOnly:     '&:read-only, &[aria-readonly="true"], &[data-readonly]',
+  _expanded:     '&[aria-expanded="true"], &[data-expanded]',
+  _selected:     '&[aria-selected="true"], &[data-selected]',
+  _pressed:      '&[aria-pressed="true"], &[data-pressed]',
+
+  // Pseudo-elements
+  _before:       '&::before',
+  _after:        '&::after',
+  _placeholder:  '&::placeholder',
+  _selection:    '&::selection',
+
+  // Positional
+  _first:        '&:first-child',
+  _last:         '&:last-child',
+  _even:         '&:nth-child(even)',
+  _odd:          '&:nth-child(odd)',
+  _empty:        '&:empty',
+} as const;
+```
+
+**Why compound selectors for `_disabled`:** Native `:disabled` only applies to form elements. Custom components, ARIA widgets, and component library conventions use `aria-disabled`, `data-disabled`, or the bare `disabled` attribute. A single `_disabled` alias should target all of them so authors don't need to remember which pattern their context uses.
+
+**Why include ARIA/data states:** Component libraries (Radix, React Aria, Headless UI) use data attributes for states like pressed, expanded, selected. Including these in the built-in set means Animus components interop with those libraries without custom selectors.
+
+### 2. User extension via `addSelectors()`
+
+```ts
+createSystem()
+  .addSelectors({
+    // Override a built-in
+    _disabled: '&:disabled, &[disabled], &[aria-disabled="true"], &[data-disabled], &[data-state="disabled"]',
+    // Project-specific aliases
+    _open: '&[data-state="open"]',
+    _closed: '&[data-state="closed"]',
+    _groupHover: '[data-group]:hover &',
+  })
+  .addGroup('surface', { ...color, ...border })
+  .build();
+```
+
+`addSelectors()` merges with built-ins. Later calls override earlier ones. The merged map is serialized into the system manifest so the extraction pipeline has access at build time.
+
+**Why on `createSystem()` not `createTheme()`:** Selectors are a system concern (they affect how styles are emitted), not a theming concern (they don't relate to tokens or color modes).
+
+### 3. Style object key recognition
+
+Every style object in the chain gains `_`-prefixed optional keys. When the style resolver encounters a `_`-prefixed key:
+
+1. Look up the alias in the system's selector map
+2. If found, treat the value as a nested style object with the resolved CSS selector as the wrapper
+3. Resolve prop shorthands inside the nested object (same as top-level resolution)
+4. For `_before` / `_after`: if the nested object does not contain a `content` property, inject `content: ''`
+5. Emit the resolved CSS in the same `@layer` as the parent context
+
+```ts
+// Author writes
+ds.styles({
+  bg: 'surface',
+  _hover: { bg: 'primary', boxShadow: 'glow' },
+  _before: { display: 'block', bg: 'accent', height: '2px' },
+})
+
+// Resolves to (conceptually)
+{
+  backgroundColor: 'var(--color-surface)',
+  '&:hover': { backgroundColor: 'var(--color-primary)', boxShadow: '...' },
+  '&::before': { content: '""', display: 'block', backgroundColor: 'var(--color-accent)', height: '2px' },
+}
+```
+
+### 4. Callsite props
+
+Components with `.system()` or `.props()` gain `_`-prefixed props. Each accepts the same prop interface as the component's system groups.
+
+```tsx
+// Component definition
+const Box = ds.styles({ ... }).system({ space: true, surface: true }).asElement('div');
+
+// Callsite — _hover accepts { bg?, color?, p?, m?, ... }
+<Box bg="surface" _hover={{ bg: 'primary' }} _disabled={{ opacity: '0.4' }} />
+```
+
+**Type generation:** The callsite props type is derived from the union of the component's system group props, wrapped in `Partial<>`. Each `_`-prefixed key maps to `Partial<SystemProps>`.
+
+### 5. Extraction pipeline changes
+
+The Rust evaluator in `style_evaluator.rs` currently recognizes keys starting with `&` as nested selectors. Two additions:
+
+1. Recognize keys starting with `_` as selector alias references
+2. Look up the alias in the system manifest's selector map (loaded at pipeline init)
+3. Expand to the resolved CSS selector(s) and process the nested value object normally
+
+For compound selectors (comma-separated), emit duplicate rule blocks — one per selector in the comma list.
+
+### 6. Layer interaction
+
+The alias does NOT affect layer placement. Layer is determined entirely by chain position:
+
+| Chain method | Layer | `_hover` emits in |
+|---|---|---|
+| `.styles()` | `@layer base` | `@layer base` |
+| `.variant()` | `@layer variants` | `@layer variants` |
+| `.compound()` | `@layer compounds` | `@layer compounds` |
+| `.states()` | `@layer states` | `@layer states` |
+| `.system()` callsite | `@layer system` | `@layer system` |
+| `.props()` callsite | `@layer custom` | `@layer custom` |
+
+Within a layer, the pseudo-selector adds specificity naturally. `&:hover` is more specific than `&` within the same layer, so hover styles override base styles. This is standard CSS specificity, working correctly within the layer boundary.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **Type complexity**: Every style object type and every callsite prop type grows by ~25 optional keys. → Mitigation: use a shared `SelectorAliasMap` type, intersected once. Monitor tsc performance.
+- **Extraction pipeline scope**: The Rust evaluator needs the selector map at init time. → Mitigation: serialize the map into the system manifest (already loaded by the pipeline).
+- **Compound selector duplication**: `_disabled` with 4 selectors emits 4 copies of the rule block in CSS. → Mitigation: this is how CSS comma-separated selectors compile. The gzip delta is negligible.
+- **`_before`/`_after` content auto-default**: Could surprise authors who intentionally omit content. → Mitigation: only inject `content: ''` for `_before`/`_after` aliases, not for raw `'&::before'`. Authors who need no-content pseudo-elements use the raw syntax.

+## Why
+
+CSS `@layer` makes specificity invariant across layers. This is the cascade contract's strength — but it creates a gap: there is no typed, portable way to express pseudo-state or pseudo-element styles that follow the same layer rules as their surrounding context. Today, authors write raw `'&:hover': { ... }` selector strings inside style objects. These are untyped (typos like `'&:hovr'` are silent), prop shorthands may not resolve inside them, and consumers have no equivalent at the callsite — system props like `<Box bg="surface" />` have no way to add `hover:bg` in the same `@layer system`.
+
+Selector aliases unify pseudo-state and pseudo-element targeting across the entire builder chain and callsite into a single typed vocabulary: `_hover`, `_before`, `_disabled`, etc. The alias determines the CSS selector. The chain position determines the layer. One syntax everywhere.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- New `_`-prefixed keys recognized in every style object position: `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.compound()`, `.states()`, and callsite system/custom props
+- Built-in alias set covering interactive pseudo-states, pseudo-elements, and compound selectors (e.g. `_disabled` maps to `&:disabled, &[aria-disabled="true"], &[data-disabled]`)
+- `_before` / `_after` auto-default `content: ''` when not explicitly provided
+- New `createSystem().addSelectors()` method for registering custom aliases and overriding built-in defaults
+- Prop shorthands (`bg`, `p`, `mt`, etc.) resolve inside alias blocks — `_hover: { bg: 'primary' }` is equivalent to `_hover: { backgroundColor: 'primary' }`
+- Raw `'&:...'` selector strings remain supported as a fallback for truly custom selectors
+- Extraction pipeline (Rust) updated to recognize `_`-prefixed keys and expand them to their CSS selector equivalents
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `selector-alias-registry`: System-level registry of `_`-prefixed selector aliases, built-in defaults, user override/extension via `addSelectors()`, and resolution at every builder chain level
+- `selector-alias-callsite`: Callsite pseudo-state/element props (`_hover`, `_before`, etc.) on system and custom prop interfaces, emitting in the same `@layer` as their parent props
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+## Impact
+
+- **@animus-ui/system** — `Animus.ts` (builder chain style object handling), `SystemBuilder.ts` (`addSelectors()` method), `createClassResolver.ts` (runtime alias expansion), type definitions for style objects and callsite props
+- **@animus-ui/extract** — `style_evaluator.rs` (recognize `_`-prefixed keys, expand to CSS selectors), `css_generator.rs` (emit expanded selectors in correct layer)
+- **Type surface** — Every style object type gains optional `_hover?`, `_before?`, etc. keys. Callsite component props gain the same keys with the component's system prop interface as the value type.
+- **No breaking changes** — raw `'&:hover'` strings continue to work, aliases are additive

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Callsite pseudo-state props on system components
+Components with `.system()` SHALL accept `_`-prefixed props at the callsite. Each pseudo-state prop SHALL accept the same prop interface as the component's system groups, wrapped in `Partial<>`.
+
+#### Scenario: Hover prop on a system component
+- **WHEN** a component is defined as `ds.styles({...}).system({ space: true, surface: true }).asElement('div')`
+- **AND** the consumer writes `<Box bg="surface" _hover={{ bg: 'primary' }} />`
+- **THEN** the component emits `background-color: var(--color-surface)` in `@layer system` and `&:hover { background-color: var(--color-primary) }` in `@layer system`
+
+#### Scenario: Disabled prop with compound selectors
+- **WHEN** the consumer writes `<Box _disabled={{ opacity: '0.4', pointerEvents: 'none' }} />`
+- **THEN** the component emits rules targeting `&:disabled`, `&[disabled]`, `&[aria-disabled="true"]`, and `&[data-disabled]` in `@layer system`
+
+### Requirement: Callsite pseudo-element props on system components
+Components with `.system()` SHALL accept `_before` and `_after` props at the callsite with auto-defaulted `content: ''`.
+
+#### Scenario: Before pseudo-element at callsite
+- **WHEN** the consumer writes `<Box _before={{ display: 'block', bg: 'primary', height: '2px' }} />`
+- **THEN** the component emits `&::before { content: ""; display: block; background-color: var(--color-primary); height: 2px }` in `@layer system`
+
+### Requirement: Callsite pseudo props on custom prop components
+Components with `.props()` SHALL accept `_`-prefixed props at the callsite, emitting in `@layer custom`.
+
+#### Scenario: Hover on custom prop component
+- **WHEN** a component has `.props({ fluid: { ... } }).asElement('div')` and the consumer writes `<Comp _hover={{ bg: 'surface' }} />`
+- **THEN** the hover rule emits in `@layer custom`
+
+### Requirement: Callsite pseudo props type safety
+The TypeScript types for `_`-prefixed callsite props SHALL be derived from the component's system group registration. Only props from registered groups SHALL appear in the pseudo-prop type.
+
+#### Scenario: Type-narrowed pseudo props
+- **WHEN** a component registers `.system({ space: true })` (only space group)
+- **THEN** `_hover` on that component accepts `{ p?, m?, px?, py?, ... }` but NOT `{ bg?, color?, ... }`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom selector aliases available at callsite
+- **WHEN** the system has `.addSelectors({ _open: '&[data-state="open"]' })`
+- **THEN** components from that system accept `_open={{ ... }}` as a callsite prop

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Built-in selector alias set
+The system SHALL ship a default set of `_`-prefixed selector aliases covering interactive pseudo-states, ARIA/data attribute states, pseudo-elements, and positional pseudo-classes. Each alias SHALL map to one or more CSS selectors.
+
+#### Scenario: Interactive pseudo-state aliases resolve to CSS selectors
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_hover: { bg: 'primary' }`
+- **THEN** the system emits `&:hover { background-color: var(--color-primary) }`
+
+#### Scenario: Compound disabled alias targets multiple selectors
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_disabled: { opacity: '0.4' }`
+- **THEN** the system emits rules for `&:disabled`, `&[disabled]`, `&[aria-disabled="true"]`, and `&[data-disabled]`, each containing `opacity: 0.4`
+
+#### Scenario: ARIA state aliases resolve to data and aria attributes
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_expanded: { height: 'auto' }`
+- **THEN** the system emits rules for `&[aria-expanded="true"]` and `&[data-expanded]`
+
+### Requirement: Pseudo-element content auto-default
+The system SHALL automatically inject `content: ''` for `_before` and `_after` alias blocks when the author does not provide an explicit `content` property. This auto-default SHALL NOT apply to raw `'&::before'` / `'&::after'` selector strings.
+
+#### Scenario: Auto-default content for _before
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_before: { display: 'block', bg: 'primary', height: '2px' }`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS for `&::before` includes `content: ""`
+
+#### Scenario: Explicit content overrides auto-default
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_after: { content: '"→"', color: 'accent' }`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS for `&::after` contains `content: "→"` and does NOT inject an additional `content: ""`
+
+#### Scenario: Raw selector strings do not auto-default
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `'&::before': { display: 'block', bg: 'primary' }`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS for `&::before` does NOT include `content: ""`
+
+### Requirement: Prop shorthands resolve inside alias blocks
+Prop shorthand keys (`bg`, `p`, `mt`, `mx`, etc.) SHALL resolve to their mapped CSS properties inside `_`-prefixed alias blocks, with full token reference support.
+
+#### Scenario: Shorthand resolution in alias block
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_hover: { bg: 'surface', p: 16, borderColor: 'primary' }`
+- **THEN** the emitted `&:hover` block contains `background-color: var(--color-surface)`, `padding: 1rem`, and `border-color: var(--color-primary)`
+
+### Requirement: Aliases usable at every builder chain level
+Selector aliases SHALL be recognized in style objects at every position in the builder chain: `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.compound()`, `.states()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Alias in variant style object
+- **WHEN** a variant definition contains `danger: { borderColor: 'error', _hover: { borderColor: 'error.dark' } }`
+- **THEN** the hover rule emits in `@layer variants` alongside the variant's base styles
+
+#### Scenario: Alias in states style object
+- **WHEN** a state definition contains `disabled: { opacity: '0.4', _hover: { cursor: 'not-allowed' } }`
+- **THEN** the hover rule emits in `@layer states`
+
+### Requirement: Layer placement follows chain position
+The `@layer` for alias-emitted rules SHALL be determined by the builder chain method where the alias appears, NOT by the alias itself.
+
+#### Scenario: Same alias in different chain positions emits in different layers
+- **WHEN** `_hover: { bg: 'x' }` appears in `.styles()` AND `_hover: { bg: 'y' }` appears in `.variant()`
+- **THEN** the first emits in `@layer base` and the second emits in `@layer variants`
+
+### Requirement: User-extensible selector registry via addSelectors()
+`createSystem()` SHALL provide an `addSelectors()` method that accepts a `Record<string, string>` mapping alias names to CSS selector strings. User-provided aliases SHALL merge with built-in defaults. User aliases SHALL override built-in aliases of the same name.
+
+#### Scenario: Register a custom alias
+- **WHEN** the system is configured with `.addSelectors({ _open: '&[data-state="open"]' })`
+- **THEN** `_open: { display: 'block' }` in any style object emits `&[data-state="open"] { display: block }`
+
+#### Scenario: Override a built-in alias
+- **WHEN** the system is configured with `.addSelectors({ _disabled: '&:disabled, &[data-state="disabled"]' })`
+- **THEN** `_disabled` uses the user-provided selector list instead of the built-in default
+
+#### Scenario: Merged selector map available to extraction
+- **WHEN** a system has custom selectors registered
+- **THEN** the system manifest includes the full merged selector map for the extraction pipeline to consume
+
+### Requirement: Raw selector strings remain supported
+Raw `'&:...'` selector strings in style objects SHALL continue to work as before. Aliases are additive, not a replacement.
+
+#### Scenario: Raw selector alongside alias
+- **WHEN** a style object contains both `_hover: { color: 'primary' }` and `'&:focus-within': { outline: '2px solid' }`
+- **THEN** both rules emit correctly in the same layer

+## Context
+
+The showcase docs site uses a markdown renderer that reads `.md` files from `packages/showcase/src/content/`. Current structure: 6 concept pages, 6 API pages, plus getting-started and home content. The markdown renderer supports code blocks with syntax highlighting. Pages are routed via React components in `pages/`.
+
+The existing content is stale (`.groups()`, `.withProperties()`, `.withGlobalStyles()`) and organized around framework internals rather than user tasks. Three adversarial reviews converged on: start from user stories, lead with code, flip the explanation ratio.
+
+Real usage patterns were mapped from the showcase, test fixtures, and next-test-app. Key findings:
+- 80% of components are `ds.styles({...}).system({ space: true }).asElement('div')` — simple
+- Nested selectors (`&:hover`, `&:focus-visible`) go in `.styles()`, not `.states()`
+- States are boolean props at `@layer states` priority — any CSS object, just higher cascade
+- Size + Intent is the canonical dual-variant pattern
+- `.props()` is rare (1-2 components), `.compose()` is for multi-slot families
+- Token aliasing is the primary way design values flow
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Every docs page answers a user story ("I want to...")
+- Code-first: 80% examples, 20% words
+- Cascade-first mental model: same CSS objects everywhere, layer position is the only difference
+- Minimal examples written from scratch (not showcase excerpts)
+- RC minimum covers stories 1-15 (install through global styles)
+- Each page is independently producible by an agent given the story + source + format
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Interactive playground or live preview (infrastructure change, separate effort)
+- Exhaustive API reference (orphaned exports get a reference appendix later)
+- Redesigning the showcase site itself (routing, components, visual design)
+- Documenting the extraction pipeline internals
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Page structure: guided journey + reference appendix
+
+**Guided pages** (one per story cluster, not one per story):
+- **Getting Started** — stories 1-3 (install, first component, nested selectors). Hands the reader a pre-made `ds.ts` to copy. How `createSystem` works is deferred to System Setup — the reader sees value before understanding infrastructure.
+- **Variants & States** — stories 4-6, 17 (named options, compounds, boolean toggles, extending components). `.extend()` belongs here because it's the natural next step after "I built a component, now I want to build on it."
+- **System Props** — stories 7-8 (prop groups, responsive values)
+- **Theming** — stories 10-13 (colors, modes, scales, token refs)
+- **System Setup** — stories 14-15 (addGroup, global styles). NOW the reader understands what the `ds.ts` boilerplate does.
+- **Composition** — story 16 (compose for multi-slot families)
+- **TypeScript & Debugging** — stories 18-19 (autocomplete, type errors, error paths). Shows the type system working as a product feature.
+
+**Reference pages** (API surface, for lookup not learning):
+- Builder Chain API (method signatures, layer mapping)
+- createTheme API
+- createSystem API
+- compose API
+
+**Why cluster stories?** A page per story produces 27 pages that each feel thin. Clustering related stories into 7 guided pages gives enough depth per page while keeping the count manageable. Each cluster maps to a natural "session" — you'd learn variants, states, and extend in the same sitting.
+
+**The setup chicken-and-egg:** Getting Started must show a working component before explaining how the system is configured. The explicit strategy: provide a complete `ds.ts` boilerplate that the reader copies verbatim. The System Setup page later explains every line. This is deliberate — show value before infrastructure.
+
+### 2. The cascade concept page is GONE
+
+The old `cascade-contract.md` explained the layer system as a standalone concept. In the rewrite, the cascade is introduced THROUGH the examples — you see `.styles()` produce `@layer base`, then `.variant()` produce `@layer variants`, and the cascade ordering becomes obvious from the output CSS shown alongside the component code. No separate explainer needed.
+
+### 3. Each guided page follows the same template
+
+```
+# [Title — the user task, not the API name]
+
+[Copy-pasteable example that works]
+
+[1-2 sentences: when you'd reach for this]
+
+## [Next concept in the cluster]
+
+[Example]
+
+[Context sentence]
+
+## What the CSS looks like
+
+[Show the output CSS with @layer annotations]
+
+## Going further
+
+[Links to reference pages and next guided page]
+```
+
+### 4. Examples are minimal and written from scratch
+
+No showcase excerpts. A Button with 2 variants (size, intent) is the canonical example component. Every concept is demonstrated on this Button or a simple Box. The showcase is the PROOF that these patterns scale — the docs show the STARTING POINT.
+
+### 5. Before/after anchors for key concepts
+
+Where a concept maps to something the reader already knows, show the translation:
+
+```
+/* The CSS you'd write */
+.card { padding: 1rem; }
+.card:hover { box-shadow: 0 2px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.1); }
+
+/* The Animus equivalent */
+const Card = ds
+  .styles({ padding: '{space.md}', '&:hover': { boxShadow: '...' } })
+  .asElement('div');
+```
+
+This anchors the reader's existing knowledge before introducing new concepts.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk] Clustering stories might bury individual topics**: Someone searching "how do I add variants" might not find it if it's in a "Variants & States" page. → **Mitigation**: Reference pages provide direct API lookup. Guided pages have clear section headings.
+- **[Risk] Minimal examples might under-represent framework power**: A 2-variant Button doesn't show what a 10-mode theme system can do. → **Mitigation**: Each guided page links to the showcase as the maximalist proof. Docs show the floor, showcase shows the ceiling.
+- **[Trade-off] No interactive playground at RC**: Competing frameworks have live playgrounds. We don't. → **Accept**: Infrastructure cost is too high for RC. The copy-paste examples + `bun create` starter template fill the gap.

+## Why
+
+The showcase docs site content is stale and architecturally misaligned. It references the old `.groups()` method (renamed to `.system()`), shows the old `.withProperties()` callback pattern (replaced by direct `.addGroup()`), and conflates CSS pseudo-classes with `.states()`. More fundamentally, the docs are organized around the framework's internal architecture, not around what a user is trying to accomplish.
+
+The adversarial review process identified three convergent problems:
+1. **Source-first documentation is engineer-brained.** Walking exports produces API reference, not learning material.
+2. **The sequence is author-ordered, not learner-ordered.** Setup before first component means the reader bounces before seeing value.
+3. **Too much explanation, not enough code.** Successful framework docs (Tailwind, Stitches) are 80-90% examples.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Complete rewrite of all showcase docs pages** — concept pages, API pages, getting-started guide
+- **Story-driven process** — each page answers a user task ("I want to..."), not an API description
+- **Cascade-first mental model** — the through-line is: every builder method accepts CSS objects with full nested selector support; the ONLY thing that changes is the cascade layer and how it's keyed (always-on, named option, condition, boolean)
+- **Code-first format** — lead with copy-pasteable example, one sentence of context, link to reference
+- **Minimal examples written from scratch** — not extracted from showcase (too maximalist)
+- **Story inventory defines scope** — 23 stories across 4 tiers, RC minimum is stories 1-15
+
+### Story Inventory
+
+**Tier 1: "Does this work?"**
+
+1. I want to install this and see something render
+2. I want to style a div
+3. I want hover/focus styles on it (nested selectors in any CSS object)
+
+**Tier 2: "I'm building real components"**
+
+4. I want named options on my component (size, intent) — `.variant()`
+5. I want specific styles when two variants combine — `.compound()`
+6. I want a boolean prop that applies styles at higher priority — `.states()`
+7. I want spacing/color/typography as passthrough props — `.system()`
+8. I want responsive values on those props — breakpoint objects
+
+**Tier 3: "I'm building a design system"**
+
+10. I want consistent colors across my app — `createTheme().addColors()`
+11. I want dark mode and light mode — `.addColorModes()`
+12. I want spacing/sizing scales — `.addScale()`
+13. I want to reference theme values in styles — token ref syntax
+14. I want to compose my own prop groups — `createSystem().addGroup()`
+15. I want global styles — `createGlobalStyles()`
+16. I want a multi-part component family — `compose()`
+
+**Tier 2b: "I'm extending and reusing"**
+
+17. I want to build on an existing component — `.extend()`
+
+**Tier 3b: "Cross-cutting concerns"**
+
+18. I want to see what TypeScript gives me — autocomplete, type errors for invalid tokens/variants
+19. I want to know what happens when I make a mistake — error paths, missing `.asElement()`, invalid token refs
+20. I want to organize my component files — exports, co-location, barrel patterns
+
+**Tier 4: "I'm going deeper"**
+
+21. Named transforms — `createTransform()`

+26. Sharing config across packages — `.includes()`
+27. Next.js instead of Vite — `@animus-ui/next-plugin`
+
+### Process: STORIES → VALIDATE → PRODUCE
+
+**STORIES**: The inventory above defines what gets documented and in what order.
+
+**VALIDATE**: Walk source exports, confirm every public API appears in at least one story. Orphaned exports go to API reference appendix.
+
+**PRODUCE** per page:
+1. Copy-pasteable code block (LEAD with this)
+2. One sentence: when you'd reach for this
+3. Before/after where useful (CSS you'd write → Animus equivalent)
+4. Link to reference for full API
+
+Per-page ratio: 80% code, 20% words.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `showcase-docs-content`: Requirements for what each docs page must contain — story coverage, code-first format, cascade-first mental model, minimal examples
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `developer-knowledge-docs`: Add requirement that showcase docs pages must use current API naming (`.system()` not `.groups()`, `createSystem().addGroup()` not `.withProperties()`)
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Files**: All markdown files in `packages/showcase/src/content/` (concepts/ and api/ subdirectories), potentially new page structure
+- **No code changes**: All changes are documentation content
+- **Showcase site**: Pages will render differently but the site infrastructure (markdown renderer, routing) is unchanged
+- **Delegatable**: Each page in the PRODUCE phase is independently writable by an agent given the story, the source file, and the format spec

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Root CLAUDE.md build system addendum
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL include a build system section (appended after existing content) documenting monorepo build order, verification commands, cache tiers, and common debugging scenarios. Consumer-facing README content SHALL NOT conflict with internal CLAUDE.md content — the same APIs, terminology, and package names MUST be used in both. Showcase docs pages SHALL use current API naming throughout.
+
+#### Scenario: Root CLAUDE.md covers verification loop
+- **WHEN** a developer reads the root `CLAUDE.md` build system section
+- **THEN** it SHALL document: `bun run verify` (fast, TS only), `bun run verify:full` (complete with Rust + showcase), `bun run rebuild` (nuclear fresh state)
+
+#### Scenario: Root CLAUDE.md covers build dependency order
+- **WHEN** a developer reads the root `CLAUDE.md` build system section
+- **THEN** it SHALL document the package build order: extract → core → theming → system → vite-plugin → showcase
+
+#### Scenario: Root CLAUDE.md covers debugging decision tree
+- **WHEN** a developer reads the root `CLAUDE.md` build system section
+- **THEN** it SHALL document a decision tree: "transforms seem stale" → clean:light, "NAPI errors" → rebuild, "nothing works" → clean:full + rebuild
+
+#### Scenario: Terminology consistency across all docs surfaces
+- **WHEN** showcase docs pages reference the builder chain API
+- **THEN** they SHALL use `.system()` (not `.groups()`), `createSystem().addGroup()` (not `.withProperties()`), and `createGlobalStyles()` (not `.withGlobalStyles()`)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Guided pages follow story-driven structure
+Each guided docs page SHALL answer one or more user stories from the story inventory. Pages SHALL NOT be organized around API names or framework internals.
+
+#### Scenario: Getting Started page covers stories 1-3
+- **WHEN** a user reads the Getting Started page
+- **THEN** it SHALL show: install commands, Vite config, a styled component with nested selectors, and rendered output — in that order, with the component visible before setup is fully explained
+
+#### Scenario: Variants & States page covers stories 4-6
+- **WHEN** a user reads the Variants & States page
+- **THEN** it SHALL show: a variant with named options (size/intent pattern), a compound combining two variants, and a boolean state prop — each with working code and output CSS showing the `@layer` each emits to
+
+#### Scenario: System Props page covers stories 7-8
+- **WHEN** a user reads the System Props page
+- **THEN** it SHALL show: opting into pre-built groups via `.system()`, using the exposed props in JSX, and responsive breakpoint objects with `_` as base
+
+### Requirement: Code-first page format
+Every guided page SHALL lead with a copy-pasteable code example before any prose explanation. The ratio SHALL be approximately 80% code blocks to 20% prose.
+
+#### Scenario: Page opens with working code
+- **WHEN** a user opens any guided docs page
+- **THEN** the first content element after the title SHALL be a code block, not a paragraph of explanation
+
+#### Scenario: Prose is minimal
+- **WHEN** a concept is introduced on a guided page
+- **THEN** it SHALL have at most 2 sentences of prose between code blocks
+
+### Requirement: Cascade-first mental model
+Docs SHALL teach that every builder method accepts CSS objects with full nested selector support. The ONLY difference between methods is the cascade layer and how styles are keyed.
+
+#### Scenario: States documented as cascade priority, not CSS pseudo-classes
+- **WHEN** `.states()` is explained
+- **THEN** it SHALL be described as "boolean props whose styles emit at `@layer states`" — NOT as "hover/disabled handlers" or "interaction states"
+- **AND** the example SHALL show that state CSS objects support nested selectors, data attributes, and pseudo-classes just like `.styles()`
+
+#### Scenario: Nested selectors shown in .styles()
+- **WHEN** hover or focus behavior is first introduced
+- **THEN** it SHALL be shown as a nested selector in `.styles()` (e.g., `'&:hover': { ... }`), NOT in `.states()`
+
+#### Scenario: Output CSS shown with layers
+- **WHEN** a builder method is demonstrated
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL be shown alongside with `@layer` annotations so the reader sees where each method's styles land in the cascade
+
+### Requirement: Minimal examples written from scratch
+Code examples SHALL be minimal — the simplest possible code that demonstrates the concept. Examples SHALL NOT be extracted from the showcase.
+
+#### Scenario: Button as canonical example
+- **WHEN** variants are introduced
+- **THEN** the example SHALL use a Button with 2 variant axes (size and intent), not a complex multi-variant component
+
+#### Scenario: No showcase-specific tokens in examples
+- **WHEN** token references appear in examples
+- **THEN** they SHALL use generic names (e.g., `'{colors.primary}'`, `'{space.md}'`) — not showcase-specific names (e.g., `'ember'`, `'coal'`, `'fire.500'`)
+
+### Requirement: Before/after anchors for key concepts
+Where a concept maps to something the reader already knows (plain CSS), the docs SHALL show a before/after translation.
+
+#### Scenario: CSS-to-Animus translation shown
+- **WHEN** `.styles()` is first introduced
+- **THEN** a side-by-side SHALL show: the CSS the reader would write, and the Animus equivalent producing the same output
+
+### Requirement: Reference pages for API lookup
+Separate reference pages SHALL document the full API surface with method signatures, parameter types, and return types. These are for lookup, not learning.
+
+#### Scenario: Builder chain reference lists all methods
+- **WHEN** a user reads the builder chain reference page
+- **THEN** it SHALL list every builder method with its signature, the `@layer` it emits to, and a one-line description
+
+#### Scenario: createTheme reference lists all methods
+- **WHEN** a user reads the createTheme reference page
+- **THEN** it SHALL list `addBreakpoints`, `addColors`, `addColorModes`, `addScale`, `declareContextualVars`, and `build` with signatures

+## Context
+
+Animus components are created via `createComponent(element, className, config, ...)` in the runtime. At render time, `resolveClasses(className, props, config, ...)` produces `{ classes, dynamicStyle }`, then `createElement(renderElement, domProps)` renders the element. The `as` prop allows swapping `renderElement` at runtime but doesn't change the type signature — consumers lose type narrowing for the target element's attributes.
+
+The `asChild` pattern (Radix, Ark, Melt) delegates rendering entirely to the child: the component resolves its styles, then merges className/ref/style onto the single child via `cloneElement`. The child keeps its own types and props.
+
+`resolveClasses` already decouples style resolution from rendering. The asChild path only replaces the final `createElement` call — the rest of the runtime is unchanged.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Type-safe polymorphism via child delegation
+- Ref composition (component ref + child ref both receive the element)
+- className merging (Animus classes + child's existing className)
+- Dynamic style merging (CSS variables + child's existing inline style)
+- Coexistence with `as` prop (no deprecation, no breaking change)
+- Works with compose() families (composed className merges onto child)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Deprecating or removing the `as` prop
+- Changing the extraction pipeline
+- Event handler merging (Radix does this for interactive components — Animus components are styling primitives, not behavioral)
+- Compile-time enforcement that children is a single element (runtime enforcement via `Children.only`, matching Radix precedent)
+- Supporting `asChild` on `.asClass()` output (class resolvers don't render)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. asChild branch in createComponent
+
+When `props.asChild` is truthy, after resolveClasses:
+
+```typescript
+if (props.asChild) {
+  const child = Children.only(props.children);
+  if (!isValidElement(child)) {
+    throw new Error('asChild requires a single React element as children');
+  }
+  return cloneElement(child, {
+    ref: composeRefs(ref, (child as any).ref),
+    className: [classes.join(' '), child.props.className].filter(Boolean).join(' '),
+    ...(dynamicStyle || props.style ? {
+      style: { ...child.props.style, ...props.style, ...prevDynStyle }
+    } : {}),
+  });
+}
+```
+
+This is placed BEFORE the existing `createElement` call. The `asChild` prop is added to `filterProps` so it's never forwarded to the DOM.
+
+Key: we do NOT forward any other props from the parent to the child. The parent's variant/state/system props are consumed by `resolveClasses` and converted to className. The child keeps its own props. Only className, ref, and style are merged.
+
+### 2. composeRefs utility
+
+A small utility that merges two refs (callback or object) into a single callback ref:
+
+```typescript
+function composeRefs<T>(...refs: (React.Ref<T> | undefined)[]): React.RefCallback<T> {
+  return (node) => {
+    for (const ref of refs) {
+      if (typeof ref === 'function') ref(node);
+      else if (ref) (ref as React.MutableRefObject<T | null>).current = node;
+    }
+  };
+}
+```
+
+Placed in `runtime/index.ts` (private, not exported). ~5 lines.
+
+### 3. `as` prop interaction
+
+When both `asChild` and `as` are provided, `asChild` wins. The `as` prop is ignored. This matches Radix behavior. No warning — the two props serve different use cases and shouldn't be combined, but erroring would be overly strict.
+
+### 4. Type system: `asChild?: boolean` on AnimusConsumerProps
+
+Added alongside the existing `as` and `className` in the consumer props intersection. No conditional types — `children` remains `ReactNode` regardless. Runtime enforcement via `Children.only` is sufficient (Radix uses the same approach).
+
+### 5. Prop forwarding: only merge className, ref, style
+
+Unlike Radix's Slot (which merges all props), Animus asChild only merges styling concerns:
+- `className` — the resolved Animus classes + child's existing
+- `ref` — composed from forwarded ref + child's ref
+- `style` — dynamic CSS variables + child's existing inline styles
+
+We do NOT merge event handlers, data attributes, or aria attributes from the parent onto the child. Animus components are styling primitives — they don't carry behavioral props. If the consumer needs to pass `onClick` or `aria-label`, they put it on the child directly:
+
+```tsx
+<Button kind="ghost" asChild>
+  <a href="/foo" onClick={handleClick} aria-label="Go">Link</a>
+</Button>
+```
+
+This is simpler and more predictable than Radix's full prop merge. It also avoids the complexity of event handler chaining.
+
+### 6. compose() interaction
+
+Works naturally. When a composed slot uses `asChild`:
+
+```tsx
+<Card.Header asChild>
+  <Link href="/details">Card title</Link>
+</Card.Header>
+```
+
+Card.Header's className (base + variant classes from CSS cascade or context) gets merged onto the Link. The CSS cascade doesn't care about element type — it matches on class selectors.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk] Children.only throws on fragments or multiple children**: This is intentional — `asChild` requires exactly one element child. The error message from React is clear. Could wrap with a more descriptive error.
+
+- **[Trade-off] No event handler merging**: Unlike Radix Slot, we don't chain onClick/onFocus etc. Animus components are styling primitives, not interactive widgets. If this becomes a need (e.g., for composed families with behavioral concerns), we can add it later without breaking the existing API.
+
+- **[Trade-off] Runtime-only children enforcement**: TypeScript can't enforce "exactly one ReactElement child" without making the children type incompatible with JSX's default ReactNode. Runtime enforcement via Children.only matches Radix precedent and keeps the type ergonomics simple.

+## Why
+
+The `as` prop provides runtime polymorphism but breaks type safety — `<Button as="a" href="/foo">` accepts `href` only because the type union is overly permissive. There's no way to get anchor-specific autocomplete or type checking. The `asChild` pattern (pioneered by Radix) solves this: instead of rendering its own element, the component merges its resolved className onto the single child element. The child keeps its own props and types. This is the standard approach for headless UI interop — Radix, Ark, and Melt all use it.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **`asChild` prop on all Animus components**: When `true`, the component does not render its own element. Instead, it resolves className/style as usual, then merges them onto the single child element via `cloneElement`. The child must be a single React element (`Children.only` enforced at runtime).
+- **`composeRefs` utility**: Merges the component's forwarded ref with the child element's ref into a single callback ref. Required for asChild to properly compose ref forwarding.
+- **`asChild` added to prop filter**: The `asChild` prop is stripped by `filterProps` — never forwarded to the DOM.
+- **`as` prop coexistence**: `as` continues to work unchanged. When `asChild` is `true`, `as` is ignored. No deprecation.
+- **Extraction pipeline unchanged**: `resolveClasses` already decouples style resolution from rendering. `asChild` only changes the rendering step (`createElement` → `cloneElement`). Zero impact on the Rust crate.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `as-child-rendering`: Covers the asChild prop behavior — child delegation, ref composition, className/style merging, interaction with existing `as` prop, compose() compatibility, and error handling for invalid children.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `extraction-runtime-shim`: The `createComponent` factory gains awareness of `asChild` — new rendering branch alongside the existing createElement path.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **packages/system/src/runtime/index.ts**: `createComponent` gains ~15 lines for the asChild branch + `composeRefs` utility.
+- **packages/system/src/types/component.ts**: `asChild?: boolean` added to `AnimusConsumerProps`.
+- **Tests**: Runtime tests for asChild rendering, ref composition, className merging, error on non-element children.
+- **No extraction changes**: `resolveClasses`, `css_generator`, `jsx_scanner`, `project_analyzer` — all unchanged.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: asChild delegates rendering to the single child element
+When an Animus component receives `asChild={true}`, it SHALL NOT render its own element. Instead, it SHALL resolve its className and dynamic style as usual, then merge them onto the single child element via `cloneElement`.
+
+#### Scenario: Basic asChild rendering
+- **WHEN** `<Button kind="ghost" asChild><a href="/foo">Link</a></Button>` renders
+- **THEN** the output SHALL be `<a href="/foo" class="animus-Button-xxx animus-Button-xxx--kind-ghost">Link</a>` — no `<button>` element rendered
+
+#### Scenario: Child keeps its own props
+- **WHEN** a child element has `href`, `target`, `onClick`, or any other props
+- **THEN** those props SHALL be preserved on the rendered output — the parent does not strip or override them
+
+#### Scenario: asChild requires exactly one element child
+- **WHEN** `asChild={true}` is used with zero children, multiple children, or a non-element child (string, number, fragment)
+- **THEN** the component SHALL throw a runtime error indicating that asChild requires a single React element
+
+### Requirement: className merging with asChild
+When `asChild` is active, the parent's resolved className SHALL be merged with the child's existing className.
+
+#### Scenario: Merged className order
+- **WHEN** the parent resolves to `"animus-Box-abc animus-Box-abc--size-sm"` and the child has `className="child-extra"`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have `className="animus-Box-abc animus-Box-abc--size-sm child-extra"`
+
+#### Scenario: Child has no className
+- **WHEN** the child element has no className prop
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have only the parent's resolved className
+
+### Requirement: Ref composition with asChild
+When `asChild` is active, the parent's forwarded ref and the child's ref SHALL both receive the rendered DOM element.
+
+#### Scenario: Both refs receive the element
+- **WHEN** the parent has a forwarded ref and the child has its own ref
+- **THEN** both refs SHALL be set to the same DOM element after mount
+
+#### Scenario: Only parent ref exists
+- **WHEN** the parent has a forwarded ref but the child has no ref
+- **THEN** the parent ref SHALL receive the DOM element normally
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic style merging with asChild
+When `asChild` is active and the parent has dynamic CSS variable styles, they SHALL be merged with the child's existing inline style.
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic styles applied to child
+- **WHEN** the parent has dynamic prop styles `{ '--animus-p': '16px' }` and the child has `style={{ color: 'red' }}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have `style={{ color: 'red', '--animus-p': '16px' }}`
+
+#### Scenario: No dynamic styles
+- **WHEN** the parent has no dynamic prop values and the child has `style={{ color: 'red' }}`
+- **THEN** the child's style SHALL be preserved unchanged
+
+### Requirement: asChild coexists with `as` prop
+The `asChild` and `as` props SHALL coexist. When both are provided, `asChild` SHALL take precedence and `as` SHALL be ignored.
+
+#### Scenario: asChild takes precedence over as
+- **WHEN** `<Button as="a" asChild><span>text</span></Button>` renders
+- **THEN** the output SHALL be `<span class="...">text</span>` — `asChild` wins, `as="a"` is ignored
+
+#### Scenario: as prop works normally without asChild
+- **WHEN** `<Button as="a" href="/foo">Link</Button>` renders without asChild
+- **THEN** the output SHALL be `<a href="/foo" class="...">Link</a>` — existing behavior unchanged
+
+### Requirement: asChild with composed families
+The `asChild` prop SHALL work on slots within composed families. Composed variant classes (from CSS cascade or context propagation) SHALL merge onto the child element.
+
+#### Scenario: Composed slot with asChild
+- **WHEN** `<Card.Header asChild><Link href="/x">Title</Link></Card.Header>` renders inside `<Card.Root density="compact">`
+- **THEN** Card.Header's resolved className (including any composed variant classes) SHALL merge onto the Link element
+
+### Requirement: asChild prop is not forwarded to DOM
+The `asChild` prop SHALL be filtered from DOM prop forwarding, same as variant props and system props.
+
+#### Scenario: asChild absent from DOM attributes

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: createComponent factory
+`createComponent(element, className, config, systemPropMap?, dynamicPropConfig?)` SHALL be the sole export from `@animus-ui/system` for building extracted components. The `config` object SHALL accept optional `customPropMap` and `customDynamicConfig` fields for per-component custom prop resolution.
+
+When `props.asChild` is `true`, `createComponent` SHALL resolve className and dynamic styles as usual, then delegate rendering to the single child element via `cloneElement` instead of rendering its own element via `createElement`. The `asChild` prop SHALL be included in the `filterProps` set and never forwarded to the DOM.
+
+- `customPropMap`: `Record<string, Record<string, string>>` — maps custom prop name → value key → CSS class name. Same structure as `systemPropMap` but scoped to one component.
+- `customDynamicConfig`: `Record<string, { varName, slotClass, property, properties?, transformName?, transform?, scaleValues? }>` — per-component CSS variable fallback metadata for dynamic custom props.
+
+When resolving a prop value at render time, the runtime SHALL check `customPropMap` first, then `systemPropMap`. If a match is found in `customPropMap`, the corresponding class is applied and no further lookup occurs. This ensures custom props override system props when names overlap.
+
+For dynamic custom props (value not found in `customPropMap`), the runtime SHALL check `customDynamicConfig` for CSS variable slot metadata. Resolution follows the same order as system dynamic props: scale value lookup → transform → unit fallback. CSS variables are applied via the element's inline `style` attribute.
+
+#### Scenario: Static custom prop resolved via customPropMap
+- **WHEN** a component has `config.customPropMap = { size: { sm: 'animus-u-abc' } }` and receives `size="sm"`
+- **THEN** `animus-u-abc` class is added to the element and `size` is not forwarded to the DOM
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic custom prop resolved via customDynamicConfig
+- **WHEN** a component has `config.customDynamicConfig = { size: { varName: '--animus-size', slotClass: 'animus-dyn-x-size', property: 'flex-basis', scaleValues: { sm: '15rem' } } }` and receives `size={someVar}`
+- **THEN** the slot class `animus-dyn-x-size` is added to the element and `--animus-size` is set as an inline style variable with the resolved value
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with scale resolution
+- **WHEN** a component has `customDynamicConfig.size.scaleValues = { xs: '10rem', sm: '15rem' }` and receives `size="sm"` dynamically
+- **THEN** the CSS variable `--animus-size` is set to `15rem` (scale-resolved value)
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with transform
+- **WHEN** a component has `customDynamicConfig.spacing.transform` set to a transform function and receives `spacing={4}`
+- **THEN** the transform is applied to the raw value before setting the CSS variable
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop takes precedence over system prop
+- **WHEN** a component has both `systemPropMap` entry for `p` and `customPropMap` entry for `p`, and receives `p="lg"`
+- **THEN** the `customPropMap` entry is used, not the `systemPropMap` entry
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive custom prop with dynamic value
+- **WHEN** a component has `customDynamicConfig` for `size` and receives `size={{ _: baseVal, sm: smVal }}`
+- **THEN** the runtime applies base slot class (`animus-dyn-{hash}-size`) and per-bp slot class (`animus-dyn-{hash}-size-sm`), sets `--animus-size` to the resolved base value and `--animus-size-sm` to the resolved sm value
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive dynamic prop only applies used breakpoint classes
+- **WHEN** a component receives `p={{ _: 8, md: 16 }}` dynamically
+- **THEN** the runtime applies `.animus-dyn-p` and `.animus-dyn-p-md` only — breakpoint classes for xs, sm, lg, xl are NOT applied
+
+#### Scenario: asChild rendering delegates to child element
+- **WHEN** a component receives `asChild={true}` with a single React element child
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL resolve className and dynamic styles as usual, then call `cloneElement` on the child with merged className, composed ref, and merged style — instead of calling `createElement` with its own element tag
+
+#### Scenario: asChild prop filtered from DOM
+- **WHEN** a component receives `asChild={true}`
+- **THEN** `asChild` SHALL NOT appear as a DOM attribute on the rendered element

+## Context
+
+`compose()` was refactored in session 48 to use CSS-only shared variant propagation — two rules per shared variant option per child slot at specificity (0,3,0) within `@layer variants`. React context (createContext, Provider, useContext) was removed entirely. This works for all composed families where children render inside Root's DOM subtree.
+
+Portal-mounted children (Radix Dialog.Content, Tooltip.Content, Popover.Content) render into `document.body` via `createPortal`, physically outside Root's DOM subtree. CSS descendant selectors (`.Root.Root--size-sm .Child`) cannot reach them. React context DOES cross portal boundaries. The portal fallback was deferred as no portal-using composed families existed.
+
+Current code:
+- `compose.ts`: 60 lines, thin `forwardRef` wrappers, no hooks, RSC-compatible
+- `jsx_scanner.rs`: `ComposeFamilyInfo { root_binding, slots, shared_keys }` — no `context` field
+- `transform_emitter.rs`: preserves existing `"use client"` directives but does not inject them
+- `project_analyzer.rs`: threads `ComposeFamilyInfo` through reconciler and CSS generator
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Opt-in React context propagation for composed families with portal-mounted slots
+- Automatic `"use client"` directive injection when context mode requires it
+- CSS two-rule emission unchanged — context is additive fallback, not replacement
+- Minimal runtime cost for default (context-free) families — zero added code paths
+- Type system accepts `context?: boolean` without affecting SharedConfig or ComposedFamily
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing default compose behavior — `context: false` is the default, no behavioral change for existing families
+- Per-slot portal annotation — ALL children get context in `context: true` families (simplicity over precision)
+- Runtime portal detection — no Intersection Observer or MutationObserver to detect portaling dynamically
+- Stripping user-authored `"use client"` directives — only injection, never removal
+- Context for non-variant shared state — only shared variant prop values flow through context
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. `context` as the option name
+
+`context: true` rather than `client: true` or `portal: true`. It names the mechanism (React context propagation) rather than the deployment concern (RSC boundary) or the use case (portals). If context is ever needed for non-portal reasons, the name still fits. The deployment consequence (`"use client"`) is an automatic side effect, not the primary concern.
+
+```typescript
+compose(
+  { Root: DialogRoot, Content: DialogContent },
+  { shared: { size: true }, context: true }
+)
+```
+
+### 2. Context passes shared prop VALUES, not className strings
+
+Children receive shared variant prop values (e.g., `{ size: 'lg' }`) through context, not pre-resolved className strings. Each child's variant runtime resolves props to classes through its own `createComponent` config — the same resolution path as direct props. One code path, no special cases, no knowledge of child internals needed at the Root level.
+
+The old compose (pre-session-48) used this exact approach. The difference: now it's opt-in.
+
+### 3. Root wraps children in Provider, children merge context with own props
+
+When `context: true`:
+- Root creates a context value object containing only the shared prop values from its own props
+- Root renders `<FamilyContext.Provider value={sharedValues}>{children}</FamilyContext.Provider>` inside its own output
+- Each non-Root child calls `useContext(FamilyContext)`, spreads context values under its own direct props (direct props win via object spread ordering: `{ ...contextProps, ...directProps }`)
+
+This means direct props on a child override context-provided values at the JS level, mirroring the CSS source-order override behavior for in-DOM children. Both mechanisms agree on semantics.
+
+**Why Root wraps children, not the other way around:** The Provider must be INSIDE Root's rendered output (inside the component's DOM), not wrapping Root externally. Root renders its element, and the Provider wraps `props.children` within that element. This way portaled children (which are still React children even though they escape the DOM) receive the context.
+
+### 4. Conditional context creation in compose.ts
+
+compose.ts conditionally creates context machinery based on the `context` option:
+
+```typescript
+export function compose(slots, options) {
+  const familyName = options.name ?? 'Composed';
+  const useCtx = options.context ?? false;
+  
+  const FamilyCtx = useCtx ? createContext<Record<string, unknown>>({}) : null;
+  const sharedKeySet = useCtx ? new Set(Object.keys(options.shared)) : null;
+
+  for (const [name, Source] of Object.entries(slots)) {
+    if (name === 'Root' && FamilyCtx && sharedKeySet) {
+      // Root wrapper: extract shared props, provide via context
+      const Wrapper = forwardRef((props, ref) => {
+        const shared: Record<string, unknown> = {};
+        for (const key of sharedKeySet) {
+          if (key in props) shared[key] = props[key];
+        }
+        return createElement(Source, { ...props, ref },
+          createElement(FamilyCtx.Provider, { value: shared }, props.children)
+        );
+      });
+      // ...
+    } else if (FamilyCtx) {
+      // Child wrapper: read context, merge under direct props
+      const Wrapper = forwardRef((props, ref) => {
+        const inherited = useContext(FamilyCtx);
+        return createElement(Source, { ...inherited, ...props, ref });
+      });
+      // ...
+    } else {
+      // Default: current thin wrapper, no hooks
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+When `context` is false/absent, the code path is identical to current — no createContext import, no hooks, no overhead. The conditional is evaluated once at compose() call time, not per render.
+
+### 5. ComposeFamilyInfo gains `context: bool`
+
+`jsx_scanner.rs` extracts `context: true/false` from the compose options AST alongside shared keys. The extraction logic mirrors `extract_shared_keys` — look for a `context` property in the options object, check if its value is `true`.
+
+```rust
+pub struct ComposeFamilyInfo {
+    pub root_binding: String,
+    pub slots: Vec<(String, String)>,
+    pub shared_keys: Vec<String>,
+    pub context: bool,  // NEW
+}
+```
+
+The `context` field is consumed by:
+1. `project_analyzer.rs` — threads it to transform_emitter for `"use client"` injection decisions
+2. CSS generation is NOT affected — composed CSS rules are always emitted regardless of `context`
+
+### 6. `"use client"` injection in transform_emitter
+
+`apply_replacements` gains a `needs_use_client: bool` parameter. When true AND the source does not already start with `'use client'` or `"use client"`, the function prepends the directive.
+
+The injection point is in `apply_replacements` at the existing directive-handling block (line 401-414). The current logic preserves existing directives. Extended logic:
+1. If source already has `"use client"` → preserve it (existing behavior)
+2. If source lacks directive AND `needs_use_client` is true → inject `'use client';\n` before import lines
+3. If source lacks directive AND `needs_use_client` is false → no change (existing behavior)
+
+`needs_use_client` is true when ANY compose family in the file has `context: true`. Determined by `project_analyzer.rs` when building the transform manifest for that file.
+
+### 7. No directive stripping
+
+The pipeline will NOT strip `"use client"` directives that the user added manually, even if no compose family needs context. Stripping is unsafe — the user may have `"use client"` for non-Animus reasons (other hooks, event handlers, browser APIs). Injection is safe because it's additive. Stripping is destructive.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk] Children prop collision**: Context spreads shared props onto children. If a child has a non-variant prop with the same name as a shared key, context overwrites it. → **Mitigation**: Direct props win via spread ordering (`{ ...context, ...direct }`). Only shared VARIANT keys flow through context, and these are already variant props on the child by definition (enforced by SharedConfig type constraint).
+
+- **[Risk] Provider adds a React tree node**: Root's children are wrapped in `<Provider>`. This adds one component to the React tree per family. → **Mitigation**: Acceptable — this is ONE node per family, only for `context: true` families. The pre-refactor compose had this for ALL families. Provider is a lightweight React primitive.
+
+- **[Risk] `"use client"` injection surprises user**: Pipeline adds `"use client"` to a file the user expected to be server-rendered. → **Mitigation**: The user explicitly opted in by writing `context: true`. The directive is a direct consequence of their choice. If surprising, the connection is traceable.
+
+- **[Trade-off] All children get context, not just portaled ones**: In a `context: true` family, every child reads useContext, even in-DOM children where CSS cascade already handles it. → **Accept**: The CSS rules still apply for in-DOM children and produce correct styles. The context read is redundant but harmless — it provides the same prop values the CSS cascade already handles. Selective per-slot annotation would add API complexity for negligible runtime savings.
+
+- **[Trade-off] `context: true` families are not RSC-compatible**: useContext requires a client component. → **Accept**: This is inherent — portals are client-only by nature (createPortal requires DOM). Any file using portal-based headless primitives is already a client boundary.

+## Why
+
+Composed families that include portal-mounted slots (Radix Dialog, Tooltip, Popover; Ark Menu) cannot receive shared variant styles via CSS cascade — portaled content renders outside Root's DOM subtree, so descendant selectors don't reach it. React context DOES cross portal boundaries. The context-free compose refactor (session 48) deferred this as a known limitation since no portal-using families existed yet. As headless primitive integration approaches, this gap blocks real-world composed families that include overlay/dialog slots.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **`context` option on compose()**: New optional boolean in compose options. When `true`, compose() creates a React context, Root wraps children in a Provider passing shared prop values, and children use `useContext` to receive shared props through their own variant runtime. Default `false` preserves current CSS-only behavior.
+- **CSS rules always emitted**: The two-rule composed variant CSS model is unchanged. `context: true` families still get full CSS emission — context is an additive fallback for portal-escaped children, not a replacement.
+- **Extraction pipeline `context` detection**: `jsx_scanner.rs` extracts `context: true/false` from compose() AST. `ComposeFamilyInfo` gains a `context: bool` field.
+- **`"use client"` directive injection**: When the extraction pipeline detects `context: true` in a compose call and the source file lacks a `"use client"` directive, `transform_emitter.rs` injects the directive at the top of the transformed output. Files that already have the directive are unchanged.
+- **Type system**: `context` is an optional boolean on compose options. No impact on `SharedConfig`, `ComposedFamily`, or consumer-facing types.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+_None_ — this extends existing compose capabilities.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `compose-slot-composition`: The "No React context in shared variant path" requirement becomes conditional — context is absent by default but present when `context: true` is specified. The compose() API signature gains an optional `context` boolean.
+- `compose-css-propagation`: The DEFERRED portal fallback requirement becomes implemented. Portal-mounted slots receive shared variant styling via context-provided prop values when `context: true`.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **packages/system/src/compose.ts**: Conditional context creation (~30 lines for context branch). Default branch unchanged.
+- **packages/system/src/types/component.ts**: `context?: boolean` added to compose options type.
+- **packages/extract/src/jsx_scanner.rs**: Extract `context` field from compose AST. `ComposeFamilyInfo` gains `context: bool`.
+- **packages/extract/src/transform_emitter.rs**: Inject `"use client"` when compose family uses `context: true` and file lacks directive.
+- **packages/extract/src/project_analyzer.rs**: Thread `context` field through pipeline (already has ComposeFamilyInfo plumbing from context-free compose).
+- **Tests**: compose.test.tsx (context branch), canary tests (context detection + "use client" injection), type tests (context option typing).

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Portal-mounted slot fallback (DEFERRED)
+Portal-mounted child slots (e.g., Radix Dialog content, Tooltip content) render outside the Root DOM subtree. CSS descendant selectors do not reach portaled content. When `context: true` is specified on the compose call, shared variant prop values SHALL be propagated via React context, which crosses portal boundaries. Non-portaled slots in the same family also receive context but CSS cascade remains the primary styling mechanism for in-DOM children.
+
+**Status**: Implemented via `context: true` option on compose().
+
+#### Scenario: Portaled slot receives shared variant via context
+- **WHEN** a composed family has `context: true` and a child slot renders via a portal (outside Root's DOM subtree)
+- **THEN** the slot SHALL receive shared variant prop values via `useContext`, and its variant runtime SHALL resolve them to the correct CSS classes
+
+#### Scenario: Non-portaled slots in context family use both mechanisms
+- **WHEN** a composed family has `context: true` and a child slot renders within the Root's DOM subtree
+- **THEN** the slot SHALL receive shared variant styling via BOTH CSS descendant selectors AND React context — CSS cascade is primary, context is redundant but harmless
+
+#### Scenario: Context-free families remain CSS-only
+- **WHEN** a composed family does NOT specify `context: true`
+- **THEN** portal-mounted child slots SHALL NOT receive shared variant styling — CSS descendant selectors cannot reach them and no context fallback exists
+
+### Requirement: Compose family extraction includes context flag
+The extraction pipeline SHALL extract the `context` boolean from `compose()` call AST alongside shared keys. `ComposeFamilyInfo` SHALL include a `context: bool` field.
+
+#### Scenario: Context flag extracted as true
+- **WHEN** source contains `compose({ Root: R, Child: C }, { shared: { size: true }, context: true })`
+- **THEN** the extractor SHALL produce a family record with `context: true`
+
+#### Scenario: Context flag defaults to false
+- **WHEN** source contains `compose({ Root: R, Child: C }, { shared: { size: true } })` without a `context` property
+- **THEN** the extractor SHALL produce a family record with `context: false`
+
+#### Scenario: Context flag does not affect CSS emission
+- **WHEN** a compose family has `context: true`
+- **THEN** the CSS generator SHALL emit the same two-rule composed variant CSS as a `context: false` family — CSS emission is unconditional
+
+### Requirement: Two-rule composed variant emission
+For each shared variant option on each child slot in a composed family, the extraction pipeline SHALL emit two CSS rules within `@layer variants`: an inheritance rule and an override rule.
+
+#### Scenario: Inheritance rule structure
+- **WHEN** a composed family has Root with variant `size` (options: `sm`, `md`) and Child is a slot with a `size` variant
+- **THEN** the pipeline SHALL emit an inheritance rule: `.{root-class}.{root-class}--size-sm .{child-class} { ...child's size-sm declarations... }` for each option
+
+#### Scenario: Override rule structure
+- **WHEN** a composed family has Root with variant `size` and Child has a `size` variant
+- **THEN** the pipeline SHALL emit an override rule: `.{root-class} .{child-class}.{child-class}--size-sm { ...child's size-sm declarations... }` for each option
+
+#### Scenario: Equal specificity contract
+- **WHEN** both the inheritance rule and override rule are emitted for the same variant option
+- **THEN** both rules SHALL have identical CSS specificity (0, 3, 0) — three class selectors each
+
+#### Scenario: Source order determines override
+- **WHEN** both rules are emitted
+- **THEN** the inheritance rule SHALL be emitted BEFORE the override rule in CSS source order, so that the override rule wins at equal specificity when both selectors match

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: compose() accepts optional `context` boolean
+`compose()` SHALL accept an optional `context: boolean` field in the options object. When `true`, compose() SHALL create a React context for shared variant prop propagation alongside CSS cascade. When `false` or omitted, compose() SHALL use CSS-only propagation with no React context.
+
+#### Scenario: context option accepted
+- **WHEN** `compose({ Root: R, Child: C }, { shared: { size: true }, context: true })` is called
+- **THEN** the call SHALL succeed and the resulting family SHALL use React context for shared variant propagation
+
+#### Scenario: context defaults to false
+- **WHEN** `compose({ Root: R, Child: C }, { shared: { size: true } })` is called without a `context` option
+- **THEN** the resulting family SHALL use CSS-only propagation with no React context — identical to current behavior
+
+#### Scenario: context option in TypeScript
+- **WHEN** the `context` option is used in TypeScript
+- **THEN** it SHALL be typed as `context?: boolean` with no impact on `SharedConfig`, `ComposedFamily`, or consumer-facing prop types
+
+### Requirement: Context-mode Root provides shared prop values via Provider
+When `context: true`, the Root slot wrapper SHALL create a `FamilyContext.Provider` wrapping `props.children` inside Root's rendered output. The Provider value SHALL contain only the shared variant prop values extracted from Root's props.
+
+#### Scenario: Root provides shared values
+- **WHEN** `<Family.Root size="lg">` renders in a `context: true` family with `shared: { size: true }`
+- **THEN** Root SHALL provide `{ size: "lg" }` via React context to all React children, including portal-mounted children
+
+#### Scenario: Provider wraps children inside Root
+- **WHEN** Root renders in context mode
+- **THEN** the Provider SHALL be placed INSIDE Root's rendered element wrapping `props.children`, not outside Root — ensuring portaled React children (which are React children even when DOM-escaped) receive the context
+
+### Requirement: Context-mode children merge context with direct props
+When `context: true`, non-Root slot wrappers SHALL call `useContext(FamilyContext)` and merge the context values under their direct props. Direct props SHALL override context-provided values.
+
+#### Scenario: Child receives shared value from context
+- **WHEN** `<Family.Child />` renders without a direct `size` prop in a `context: true` family where Root provides `size="lg"`
+- **THEN** Child SHALL receive `size="lg"` from context and resolve it through its own variant runtime
+
+#### Scenario: Direct prop overrides context value
+- **WHEN** `<Family.Child size="sm" />` renders with a direct `size` prop in a `context: true` family where Root provides `size="lg"`
+- **THEN** Child SHALL use `size="sm"` (direct prop wins) — context value is ignored for that prop
+
+### Requirement: `"use client"` directive injection
+When the extraction pipeline detects `context: true` in a compose call, the transformed output SHALL include a `"use client"` directive at the top of the file if one is not already present.
+
+#### Scenario: Directive injected when absent
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `compose({ Root: R, Child: C }, { shared: { size: true }, context: true })` and does NOT start with `'use client'` or `"use client"`
+- **THEN** the transformed output SHALL start with `'use client';` followed by a newline, before any import statements
+
+#### Scenario: Existing directive preserved
+- **WHEN** a source file already starts with `'use client'` and contains a `context: true` compose call
+- **THEN** the existing directive SHALL be preserved as-is — no duplicate directive SHALL be added
+
+#### Scenario: No directive without context
+- **WHEN** a source file contains only `context: false` or default compose calls (no `context: true`)
+- **THEN** the pipeline SHALL NOT inject a `"use client"` directive (existing directives are still preserved if present)
+
+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Shared variant propagation via CSS cascade
+Root SHALL apply shared variant values as CSS classes on itself. Child slots that have matching variant keys SHALL receive inherited styles via CSS descendant selectors emitted by the extraction pipeline. Direct variant props on child slots SHALL override inherited styles via CSS source ordering within the same `@layer`. When `context: true` is specified, React context SHALL additionally propagate shared variant prop values to children, providing a fallback for portal-mounted children that CSS descendant selectors cannot reach.
+
+#### Scenario: Shared variant flows from Root to child
+- **WHEN** `<Family.Root density="compact">` renders with a shared `density` key
+- **THEN** Root SHALL apply its variant class (`.Root--density-compact`) and the CSS inheritance rule SHALL style `<Family.Child />` (which has a `density` variant) without any React context or prop passing
+
+#### Scenario: Direct prop overrides inherited
+- **WHEN** `<Family.Root density="compact">` renders and `<Family.Child density="loose" />` has a direct prop
+- **THEN** Child SHALL apply its own variant class (`.Child--density-loose`) and the CSS override rule SHALL win via source order — child uses `density="loose"` styles
+
+#### Scenario: No props leak to children
+- **WHEN** Root provides `density` via its variant class but a child slot does NOT have a `density` variant
+- **THEN** the child SHALL NOT be affected — no composed CSS rules are emitted for variants the child does not have
+
+#### Scenario: No React context in default shared variant path
+- **WHEN** a composed family renders with shared variants and `context` is `false` or omitted
+- **THEN** no `createContext`, `Provider`, or `useContext` SHALL be used for shared variant propagation — the mechanism is purely CSS
+
+#### Scenario: React context used when context option is true
+- **WHEN** a composed family is created with `context: true`
+- **THEN** `createContext`, `Provider`, and `useContext` SHALL be used alongside CSS cascade to propagate shared variant prop values to children
+
+#### Scenario: options.shared is read by extraction, not runtime
+- **WHEN** `compose()` is called with `{ shared: { density: true } }`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL NOT consume the `shared` config for CSS class generation — it is read by the Rust extraction pipeline at build time to emit composed variant CSS rules. When `context: true`, the runtime reads `shared` keys to determine which props to propagate via context.

+## Context
+
+`compose()` currently uses React context for shared variant propagation. Root wraps its rendered output in a `FamilyContext.Provider`, and each child slot wraps in a `forwardRef` that calls `useContext(FamilyContext)` to read shared values, filters them through `__variantKeys`, and spreads matching props. This adds two React tree nodes per family and runtime work on every child render.
+
+The CSS @layer cascade provides a zero-runtime alternative. Within a single `@layer`, specificity is the tiebreaker, and at equal specificity, source order wins. By emitting two rules per shared variant at equal specificity — inheritance first, override second — we get deterministic cascade behavior without any React runtime.
+
+The extraction pipeline already detects `compose()` calls via `scan_compose_calls` in `jsx_scanner.rs`, but only uses the information to mark slot bindings as rendered for the reconciler. The AST contains full family structure (slot names, shared keys) that goes unused.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Eliminate React context (createContext, Provider, useContext) from compose() shared variant propagation
+- Enable clean interop with Ark/Radix headless primitives — no Animus context injected into third-party component trees
+- Deterministic override semantics: parent inheritance → child direct prop, via CSS source order
+- Props passed to composed children resolve predictably — class selection is unambiguous
+- Additive extraction change — existing per-component variant CSS is unchanged; composed rules are additional output
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing the compose() API signature or SharedConfig type constraint
+- Modifying the variant class naming scheme for standalone components
+- Adding new builder chain methods or type-level features
+- Handling dynamic shared values (e.g., shared variant driven by runtime state that isn't a static prop) — if the Root variant is class-based, the CSS model works; if it's a CSS variable, that's a separate concern
+- asChild polymorphism — related but separate effort
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Two-rule model for cascade override
+
+For each shared variant option on each child slot, emit two CSS rules:
+
+```css
+@layer variants {
+  /* Rule 1: Inheritance — parent variant cascades to child */
+  .animus-Root-abc.animus-Root-abc--size-sm .animus-Child-def {
+    font-size: 0.875rem;
+  }
+
+  /* Rule 2: Override — child direct prop wins via source order */
+  .animus-Root-abc .animus-Child-def.animus-Child-def--size-sm {
+    font-size: 0.875rem;
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Both rules have specificity (0, 3, 0): three class selectors each. At equal specificity within the same `@layer`, the rule emitted LATER in source wins. Rule 1 is emitted before Rule 2. When both are active (child has direct prop while parent also provides), Rule 2 wins.
+
+**Why not sub-layers?** Sub-layers would also work (`@layer variants.composed` before `@layer variants`) but add nesting complexity for no benefit. Equal-specificity source ordering is simpler, already used for shorthand-before-longhand ordering in css_generator, and doesn't introduce new layer names.
+
+**Why not data attributes?** Class names work for all cases. Data attributes add another selector type without benefit. The existing `--variant-option` class naming convention extends naturally to composed contexts.
+
+**Why not `:is()` grouping?** `:is(.Root--size-sm, .Root--size-md) .Child { ... }` can only group variant options that share identical declarations. Variant options by definition have different declarations (that's the point of variants). `:is()` is inapplicable here.
+
+**Prior art:** Tailwind `group` / `group/{name}` uses the same CSS mechanism — parent gets `class="group"`, children use `group-hover:text-white`, emits `.group:hover .group-hover\:text-white { ... }`. The descendant-selector pattern is production-proven at Tailwind scale. The differentiation is DX: Tailwind requires manual per-class annotation on every child; Animus generates all composed rules from a single `compose()` declaration.
+
+### 2. Root scope class provides family namespacing
+
+The Root component's identity class (`.animus-Root-abc`) appears in BOTH rules as a namespace. This prevents composed variant rules from affecting children outside the family. Two composed families on the same page with the same shared variant key (e.g., both share `size`) produce non-colliding CSS because each family's Root class is unique (content-addressed hash).
+
+No additional "family" class or naming convention is needed. The Root's existing class IS the family identity.
+
+### 3. Child wrappers removed for shared variant propagation
+
+Children no longer need `forwardRef` wrappers that call `useContext`. For shared variant propagation specifically, the child renders as-is — CSS handles inheritance from the parent's variant class.
+
+Children MAY still need wrappers for: sealing (removing `.extend()`), displayName assignment, or future non-variant shared props. But the context-specific wrapper code (useContext, knownKeys filtering, prop spreading) is removed.
+
+### 4. Extraction pipeline: ComposeFamilyInfo struct
+
+`scan_compose_calls` in `jsx_scanner.rs` is extended to return structured family info:
+
+```rust
+pub struct ComposeFamilyInfo {
+    pub root_binding: String,
+    pub slots: Vec<(String, String)>,  // (slot_name, binding_name)
+    pub shared_keys: Vec<String>,
+}
+```
+
+This is extracted from the compose() AST — the first argument (slots object) provides slot→binding mapping, the second argument's `shared` property provides shared keys.
+
+### 5. Reconciler compose-family awareness
+
+The reconciler currently prunes variant options based on direct JSX prop usage. In composed families, a child's variant options may never appear as direct JSX props (the parent holds them). The reconciler must understand: "ButtonItem's `size` variant is used because it's in a family where Root receives `size`."
+
+The mechanism is lightweight: inject `__dynamic__` usage into the existing variant_usage ledger for each shared key on each child binding. The reconciler already handles `__dynamic__` expansion (reconciler.rs:54-62) — it expands to all known options for that variant prop. No new ledger structures needed, just pre-population at the compose-scan phase.
+
+### 6. Composed rules use existing variant declarations
+
+The css_generator doesn't resolve styles again for composed rules. It reuses the already-resolved variant declarations from the per-component extraction. The composed emission is purely a selector-wrapping operation: take the existing `VariantCss` for a child's variant option, wrap the declarations in the two composed selectors.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk] CSS output grows**: Each shared variant option on each child adds two rules. A family with 3 shared variants × 3 options × 4 children = 72 additional rules. → **Mitigation**: Rules reuse existing declarations (no new resolved styles). The CSS is declarative and compresses well. The runtime savings (no context, no useContext, no prop filtering) likely offset the CSS size for real-world families.
+
+- **[Risk] Descendant selector depth**: `.Root .Child` matches at ANY nesting depth. If composed families nest inside each other, an outer Root's variant could reach an inner family's Child. → **Mitigation**: The Root scope class (`.animus-Root-abc`) is unique per family, so `.OuterRoot.OuterRoot--size-sm .InnerChild` won't match `.InnerRoot.InnerRoot--size-sm .InnerChild` — the class names are different. Only if the SAME Root class appears at multiple nesting levels (recursive composition) does this become an issue. That's an edge case we can address later with direct-child selectors if needed.
+
+- **[Trade-off] No dynamic shared values**: If a shared variant is driven by runtime state (e.g., `size={isCompact ? 'sm' : 'lg'}`), the Root still needs to apply the correct variant class at runtime. This works because the variant runtime already handles dynamic props → class assignment. The CSS model doesn't break — it just relies on the Root's class being correct, which is the variant runtime's job.
+
+- **[Trade-off] Reconciler false positives**: Marking all variant options as "used" for composed children is conservative. If Root only ever receives `size="sm"` (never "md" or "lg"), we still emit composed rules for all options. → **Accept**: The reconciler already does JSX-level analysis, not runtime analysis. This is consistent with existing behavior.
+
+### 7. Portal-mounted slots use context fallback
+
+CSS descendant selectors do not cross portal boundaries — portaled content renders into `document.body`, physically outside the Root DOM subtree. React context DOES cross portals. For portal-using slots (Radix Dialog, Tooltip, Popover; Ark Menu), shared variant propagation falls back to a minimal React context that passes a className string. Non-portal slots use the CSS-only model.
+
+This is acceptable because portals are inherently client-only (no RSC compatibility concern). The context fallback is scoped to portal slots only — the majority of composed families (Accordion, Tabs, RadioGroup, Toolbar) don't portal and get full CSS-only propagation.
+
+### 8. Rust intelligibility pass as prerequisite
+
+The extraction pipeline currently threads data through positional parameters — `resolve_styles` has 8 params, `analyze_project` has 12 NAPI params. Adding `ComposeFamilyInfo` as cross-phase state (Phase 5 scan → Phase 5e reconciler → Phase 6 generation) requires new data plumbing through `project_analyzer` internals that have no current slot for it.
+
+A `ResolveContext` / `PipelineState` refactor (the Rust intelligibility pass) should precede this work. It would provide a clean struct for cross-phase data flow, making compose family threading natural rather than ad-hoc. Without it, compose family info becomes another positional parameter or side-channel hack.
+
+### 9. compose() as pipeline terminal
+
+`compose()` is structurally analogous to `.asElement()` / `.asComponent()` / `.asClass()` — it consumes builder chain outputs and produces a sealed result. The extraction pipeline should treat it as a first-class terminal concept rather than a special case in `jsx_scanner`. This means family structure extraction flows through the normal pipeline phases rather than requiring a separate scan pass.

+## Why
+
+`compose()` uses React context for shared variant propagation — `createContext`, `Provider` wrapping on Root, `useContext` on every child, `__variantKeys` filtering. This adds two React tree nodes per family, runtime overhead on every child render, and breaks clean interop with headless primitive libraries (Ark, Radix) that already manage their own internal context. The CSS @layer cascade provides a zero-runtime alternative: two deterministic CSS rules per shared variant per child, using source order within a layer for override semantics.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Replace React context propagation with CSS-only two-rule model**: For each shared variant option on each child slot, emit two CSS rules at equal specificity (0,3,0) within `@layer variants`:
+  - Rule 1 (inheritance): `.Root.Root--variant-option .Child { ...declarations... }` — emitted first
+  - Rule 2 (override): `.Root .Child.Child--variant-option { ...declarations... }` — emitted second, wins via source order when child has a direct prop
+- **Remove createContext/useContext/Provider from compose() runtime**: Root just renders with its variant classes (already happens). Children render unmodified — no wrapper logic needed for shared variants.
+- **Extract compose family structure in the Rust pipeline**: `scan_compose_calls` extended to capture slot names, shared keys, and root identity (not just binding names for reconciler marking). New `ComposeFamilyInfo` struct threads into css_generator.
+- **Extend reconciler for compose-family awareness**: Variant options used via composition (not direct JSX props) must not be pruned. Family info feeds reconciler to understand "this child's size variants are used because it's composed with a Root that receives size."
+- **Enable Ark/Radix interop**: `.asComponent(ArkPrimitive)` composed families work without injecting context into the third-party tree. Root wrapper applies variant classes; CSS descendant selectors reach through Ark's internal structure.
+- **Props passed to composed children resolve predictably**: Two-rule model gives deterministic class resolution — inheritance first, direct override second, no ambiguity.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `compose-css-propagation`: Requirements for the CSS-only two-rule shared variant propagation model — rule structure, specificity contract, source ordering, override semantics, layer placement.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `compose-slot-composition`: Shared variant propagation changes from React context to CSS cascade. Root convention, SharedConfig types, sealing, and displayName are unchanged. The `__variantKeys` filtering requirement is removed (no props to filter — CSS handles it). The "direct prop overrides context" scenario becomes "direct prop overrides inherited CSS via source order."
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/system/src/compose.ts`**: Remove `createContext`, `useContext`, `Provider` wrapping, `__variantKeys` filtering. Root wrapper simplified to class application. Child wrappers may reduce to identity passthrough or be removed entirely.
+- **`packages/extract/src/jsx_scanner.rs`**: `scan_compose_calls` / `extract_compose_bindings` extended to return `ComposeFamilyInfo` (slot map, shared keys, root binding).
+- **`packages/extract/src/css_generator.rs`**: New composed variant emission — two rules per shared variant option per child, using existing resolved declarations.
+- **`packages/extract/src/project_analyzer.rs`**: Thread family info through Phase 5 (reconciler) and Phase 6 (generation).
+- **`packages/system/src/types/component.ts`**: `ComposedFamily` type may simplify (no context-related generics). `SharedConfig` constraint unchanged.
+- **`packages/extract/src/reconciler.rs`** (or reconciliation logic in project_analyzer): Extended to preserve variant options used via composition.
+- **Portal-mounted slots fall back to minimal context**: Portaled content (Radix Dialog, Tooltip, etc.) renders outside the Root DOM subtree — CSS descendant selectors don't reach. These slots use a lightweight context fallback (className string only). Non-portal slots are fully CSS-only. Portals are client-only, so no RSC concern.
+- **No breaking API changes**: `compose()` call signature, slot naming convention, SharedConfig types, and sealing behavior are all unchanged. The change is internal — context → CSS.
+- **Depends on Rust intelligibility pass**: The extraction pipeline threading (ComposeFamilyInfo through Phase 5→6) is cleaner with a ResolveContext/PipelineState refactor. That work should precede this.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Two-rule composed variant emission
+For each shared variant option on each child slot in a composed family, the extraction pipeline SHALL emit two CSS rules within `@layer variants`: an inheritance rule and an override rule.
+
+#### Scenario: Inheritance rule structure
+- **WHEN** a composed family has Root with variant `size` (options: `sm`, `md`) and Child is a slot with a `size` variant
+- **THEN** the pipeline SHALL emit an inheritance rule: `.{root-class}.{root-class}--size-sm .{child-class} { ...child's size-sm declarations... }` for each option
+
+#### Scenario: Override rule structure
+- **WHEN** a composed family has Root with variant `size` and Child has a `size` variant
+- **THEN** the pipeline SHALL emit an override rule: `.{root-class} .{child-class}.{child-class}--size-sm { ...child's size-sm declarations... }` for each option
+
+#### Scenario: Equal specificity contract
+- **WHEN** both the inheritance rule and override rule are emitted for the same variant option
+- **THEN** both rules SHALL have identical CSS specificity (0, 3, 0) — three class selectors each
+
+#### Scenario: Source order determines override
+- **WHEN** both rules are emitted
+- **THEN** the inheritance rule SHALL be emitted BEFORE the override rule in CSS source order, so that the override rule wins at equal specificity when both selectors match
+
+### Requirement: Composed rules reuse existing declarations
+The extraction pipeline SHALL NOT re-resolve styles for composed variant rules. Composed rules SHALL reuse the already-resolved variant declarations from the per-component extraction pass.
+
+#### Scenario: Declaration identity
+- **WHEN** Child has variant `size: sm` that resolves to `{ font-size: 0.875rem; padding: 4px 8px; }`
+- **THEN** both the inheritance rule and override rule for `size-sm` on that Child SHALL contain exactly those declarations
+
+### Requirement: Root scope class as family namespace
+The Root component's identity class SHALL appear in both composed rule selectors, providing family-scoped namespacing that prevents collision between multiple composed families on the same page.
+
+#### Scenario: Two families with same shared key
+- **WHEN** FamilyA (Root class `.animus-AccRoot-abc`) and FamilyB (Root class `.animus-TabRoot-def`) both share a `size` variant
+- **THEN** FamilyA's composed rules SHALL use `.animus-AccRoot-abc` as the scope class and FamilyB's SHALL use `.animus-TabRoot-def` — no selector collision
+
+### Requirement: Composed rules include pseudo-selectors
+Composed variant rules SHALL emit pseudo-selector declarations (`:hover`, `:focus`, etc.) alongside main declarations, using the same inheritance/override selector structure with the pseudo appended.
+
+#### Scenario: Hover declarations in composed rules
+- **WHEN** Child has variant `size: sm` with `:hover` declarations (e.g., `background-color: blue`)
+- **THEN** the inheritance rule SHALL emit `.{root-class}.{root-class}--size-sm .{child-class}:hover { background-color: blue }` and the override rule SHALL emit `.{root-class} .{child-class}.{child-class}--size-sm:hover { background-color: blue }`
+
+#### Scenario: Comma-separated pseudos
+- **WHEN** a variant option has pseudo `:hover, :focus`
+- **THEN** both composed rules SHALL expand to `.selector:hover, .selector:focus` for each rule
+
+### Requirement: Layer placement
+Composed variant rules SHALL be emitted within `@layer variants`, the same layer as direct variant rules.
+
+#### Scenario: Layer containment
+- **WHEN** composed variant rules are emitted
+- **THEN** they SHALL appear inside `@layer variants { }` alongside direct variant rules, not in a separate layer or sub-layer
+
+### Requirement: Compose family extraction
+The extraction pipeline SHALL extract full family structure from `compose()` call AST: root binding, slot-to-binding mapping, and shared variant keys.
+
+#### Scenario: Family structure extraction
+- **WHEN** source contains `compose({ Root: CardRoot, Header: CardHeader }, { shared: { size: true } })`
+- **THEN** the extractor SHALL produce a family record with root binding `"CardRoot"`, slots `[("Root", "CardRoot"), ("Header", "CardHeader")]`, and shared keys `["size"]`
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple compose calls in one file
+- **WHEN** source contains two `compose()` calls
+- **THEN** each SHALL produce its own family record with independent structure
+
+### Requirement: Reconciler compose-family awareness
+The reconciler SHALL NOT prune variant options on child slots that are used via composition, even if those options do not appear as direct JSX props on the child.
+
+#### Scenario: Composed variant preserved
+- **WHEN** Child has variant `size` with options `sm`, `md`, `lg` and Child appears only inside a composed family (never standalone with direct `size` prop)
+- **THEN** the reconciler SHALL preserve all `size` variant options on Child (because Root may receive any option)
+
+#### Scenario: Standalone-only variant still pruned normally
+- **WHEN** Child has variant `color` that is NOT a shared key in any composed family, and `color="red"` never appears in JSX
+- **THEN** the reconciler SHALL prune the `color: red` variant option as normal
+
+### Requirement: Portal-mounted slot fallback (DEFERRED)
+Portal-mounted child slots (e.g., Radix Dialog content, Tooltip content) render outside the Root DOM subtree. CSS descendant selectors do not reach portaled content. A future implementation SHALL add a minimal context fallback for portal slots. Currently, no portal-using composed families exist in the system.
+
+**Status**: Not implemented. Documented as known limitation. Will be addressed when the first portal-using composed family is added.
+
+#### Scenario: Portaled slot receives shared variant (future)
+- **WHEN** a composed family has a child slot that renders via a portal (outside Root's DOM subtree)
+- **THEN** the slot SHALL receive shared variant styling via a context-provided className, not via CSS descendant selectors
+
+#### Scenario: Non-portaled slots remain CSS-only
+- **WHEN** a composed family has child slots that render within the Root's DOM subtree
+- **THEN** those slots SHALL receive shared variant styling via CSS descendant selectors with no React context involvement

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+

+
+#### Scenario: Shared variant flows from Root to child
+- **WHEN** `<Family.Root size="sm">` renders with a shared `size` key

+- **THEN** the child SHALL NOT be affected — no composed CSS rules are emitted for variants the child does not have
+
+#### Scenario: No React context or useContext in shared variant path
+- **WHEN** a composed family renders with shared variants
+- **THEN** no `createContext`, `Provider`, or `useContext` SHALL be used for shared variant propagation — the mechanism is purely CSS
+
+#### Scenario: options.shared is read by extraction, not runtime
+- **WHEN** `compose()` is called with `{ shared: { size: true } }`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL NOT consume the `shared` config — it is read by the Rust extraction pipeline at build time to emit composed variant CSS rules. The parameter MUST be preserved in the API signature for extraction compatibility.
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Shared variant propagation via React context
+**Reason**: Replaced by CSS cascade propagation. React context added unnecessary tree depth and runtime overhead, and interfered with third-party headless primitive interop (Ark, Radix).
+**Migration**: No API migration needed — compose() call signature is unchanged. Runtime behavior is equivalent: shared variants flow from Root to children, direct props override. The mechanism changes from React context to CSS cascade.

+## Context
+
+The extraction pipeline's core resolution function `resolve_styles` (theme_resolver.rs:68) takes 8 positional parameters. Six of these — `config`, `theme`, `variable_map`, `contextual_vars`, `breakpoint_keys`, `selector_aliases` — are shared immutable context constructed once per extraction run and threaded identically through every call. The seventh (`auto_content`) is a chain-position flag (true for `.styles()`, false for variant/compound/state). The eighth (`styles`) is the per-call input.
+
+This pattern repeats upward: `process_chain` (lib.rs:373) takes 11 params, `analyze` (project_analyzer.rs:203) takes 11. Each new feature (selector aliases, contextual vars, variable maps) has accreted as additional positional parameters across all three layers.
+
+The next planned change (context-free compose) needs `ComposeFamilyInfo` threaded from Phase 5d scan through Phase 5e reconciler to Phase 6 CSS generation. Adding more positional params to already-bloated signatures would further degrade readability.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Group shared immutable resolution parameters into `ResolveContext<'a>` — resolve_styles goes from 8 params to 3
+- Group shared processing parameters into `ProcessingContext<'a>` — process_chain goes from 11 params to 4
+- Construct contexts once at the pipeline entry points (extract, analyze) and thread references
+- Maintain exact behavioral equivalence — 196 Rust tests pass without logic changes
+- Make the codebase ready for context-free compose's data threading needs
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing the NAPI boundary (analyze_project's 12 string params stay as-is — that's the serialization layer)
+- Adding new pipeline functionality or data flow
+- Refactoring css_generator.rs function signatures beyond the resolve_styles call site
+- Introducing a PipelineState struct (premature — compose data can be a local in analyze())
+- Performance optimization (no measurable impact expected from struct references vs positional params)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Two-tier context structs
+
+`ResolveContext<'a>` holds the 6 params consumed by `resolve_styles`. `ProcessingContext<'a>` embeds a `ResolveContext` plus `group_registry` and `class_prefix` consumed by `process_chain`.
+
+```rust
+pub struct ResolveContext<'a> {
+    pub config: &'a PropConfigMap,
+    pub theme: &'a FlatTheme,
+    pub variable_map: &'a VariableMap,
+    pub contextual_vars: &'a ContextualVarsMap,
+    pub breakpoint_keys: &'a HashSet<String>,
+    pub selector_aliases: &'a SelectorAliasesMap,
+}
+
+pub struct ProcessingContext<'a> {
+    pub resolve: &'a ResolveContext<'a>,
+    pub group_registry: &'a HashMap<String, Vec<String>>,
+    pub class_prefix: &'a str,
+}
+```
+
+**Why two, not one:** resolve_styles doesn't need group_registry or class_prefix. Matching struct boundaries to consumption boundaries prevents passing unnecessary data and keeps the resolution layer independent of pipeline concerns.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Single `PipelineContext` containing everything. Rejected because it couples theme resolution to pipeline-level config, and css_generator.rs calls resolve_styles independently of process_chain.
+
+### Decision 2: ResolveContext lives in theme_resolver.rs
+
+The struct is defined where `resolve_styles` lives. This keeps the resolution module self-contained — any consumer that imports `resolve_styles` gets `ResolveContext` from the same module.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Separate `context.rs` module. Rejected as premature — one struct doesn't warrant a new module.
+
+### Decision 3: ProcessingContext lives in lib.rs
+
+`process_chain` is defined in lib.rs, so `ProcessingContext` lives there too. It re-exports `ResolveContext` from theme_resolver for convenience.
+
+### Decision 4: auto_content stays a direct parameter
+
+`auto_content` is not shared context — it changes per call site (true for `.styles()`, false for everything else). It stays as the third parameter to `resolve_styles` rather than being placed on a `ChainPosition` struct.
+
+**Why not ChainPosition now:** There's only one position-dependent flag today. A struct for one bool is noise. When context-free compose adds `is_composed_context` or similar, that's the natural time to introduce ChainPosition.
+
+### Decision 5: Context construction at pipeline entry points
+
+`extract()` (lib.rs:47) and `analyze()` (project_analyzer.rs:203) are the two entry points that deserialize JSON params. Each constructs a `ResolveContext` from the deserialized values and passes `&ctx` downward. No context construction happens mid-pipeline.
+
+### Decision 6: Test helper for ResolveContext
+
+The ~17 test calls in theme_resolver.rs all construct the same empty/minimal context. A test helper `test_context()` or similar reduces boilerplate without affecting production code.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk: Merge conflicts with in-flight work]** → The `next` branch has uncommitted work that was just committed. No other branches are active. Low risk.
+
+**[Risk: Lifetime complexity]** → `ResolveContext<'a>` introduces explicit lifetimes. All references are to data that lives for the entire extraction run, so lifetime elision works naturally. The borrow checker may require minor annotation in css_generator.rs where resolve_styles is called inside a closure. → Mitigation: if lifetime annotations become complex in any call site, pass owned clones for that specific site rather than fighting the borrow checker.
+
+**[Trade-off: Two structs vs one]** → More types to know about, but each matches its consumption boundary exactly. The alternative (one big struct) would thread unused fields into resolve_styles.
+
+**[Trade-off: Mechanical churn]** → ~23 call sites change for zero behavior change. Justified by the readability improvement and the unblocking of context-free compose.

+## Why
+
+The Rust extraction crate's core functions have accumulated positional parameters as features were added (selector aliases, contextual vars, variable maps). `resolve_styles` takes 8 parameters where 6 are shared immutable context identical across every call in a processing chain. `process_chain` takes 11. This makes the code harder to read, harder to extend, and creates friction for the next planned change (context-free compose) which needs to thread additional data through the pipeline.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Introduce `ResolveContext<'a>` struct grouping the 6 shared immutable parameters of `resolve_styles` (config, theme, variable_map, contextual_vars, breakpoint_keys, selector_aliases)
+- Update `resolve_styles` signature from 8 params to 3: `(styles, &ctx, auto_content)`
+- Introduce `ProcessingContext<'a>` wrapping `ResolveContext` plus `group_registry` and `class_prefix` for `process_chain`
+- Update `process_chain` signature from 11 params to 4: `(chain, source, filename, &ctx)`
+- Update all call sites: 6 production `resolve_styles` calls, ~17 test calls, 2 `process_chain` callers, 1 `analyze` caller
+- NAPI boundary (`analyze_project`'s 12 string params) is untouched — it remains the serialization layer
+
+Zero behavior change. 196 existing Rust tests serve as the safety net.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+_(none — this is a pure structural refactor with no new user-facing or pipeline behavior)_
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+_(none — no spec-level requirements change; the refactor is internal to the crate's function signatures)_
+
+## Impact
+
+- **packages/extract/src/theme_resolver.rs** — `resolve_styles` signature change, `ResolveContext` struct definition, all test call sites updated
+- **packages/extract/src/lib.rs** — `process_chain` signature change, `ProcessingContext` struct definition, context construction in `extract()`, 5 internal `resolve_styles` calls updated
+- **packages/extract/src/project_analyzer.rs** — `analyze()` constructs contexts, `process_chain` call updated
+- **packages/extract/src/css_generator.rs** — utility CSS `resolve_styles` call updated, function signatures that receive shared params updated
+- **No NAPI API changes** — the plugin, vite integration, and all JS consumers are unaffected
+- **No behavior changes** — all 196 Rust tests must pass without modification (only signatures change)

+## Context
+
+The Vite plugin's file registry is built once at `buildStart` via filesystem walk — the "geological survey." This populates `fileCache` (a `Map<string, { hash, source }>`) which is the source of truth for which files exist in the project. New files created during dev are never added to this map.
+
+The existing HMR path (`handleHotUpdate`) already handles re-analysis gracefully: it updates `fileCache`, calls `buildFileEntriesFromCache()`, and re-runs `analyzeProject()`. But it only fires for files already in Vite's module graph. A new file's first contact with the plugin is via the `transform` hook, which gates on `storedManifest.files?.[relativePath]?.length` — if the file was never analyzed, transform returns `null` and the builder chain passes through as raw JS.
+
+The Rust crate's `analyzeProject()` is synchronous (NAPI) and has per-file caching (MD5-keyed). Re-running it after adding one new file to `fileCache` is cheap — only the new file is parsed via OXC, everything else is a cache hit.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Files created during `vite dev` are extracted and styled on first render (no restart required)
+- The fix is contained to the JS plugin layer — no Rust crate changes
+- Existing file change detection and HMR remain unchanged
+- New-file detection is logged for debugging visibility
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- File deletion detection (stale `fileCache` entries for deleted files — pre-existing, separate concern)
+- Filesystem watchers or polling (Vite already watches; we intercept at transform time)
+- Incremental single-file NAPI API (full `analyzeProject()` with per-file cache is already fast enough)
+- Handling files that don't contain animus builder chains (they pass through `runAnalysis` harmlessly — Rust finds nothing, manifest has no entry, transform returns null)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Transform hook as the detection point
+
+The `transform` hook is the natural place to detect new files. It's the first plugin hook called for a newly-imported file, and it already receives the source code as its first argument (no filesystem read needed).
+
+**Alternative considered:** `handleHotUpdate` — but this only fires for files already in Vite's module graph. A brand new file imported for the first time has no module graph entry when the *importing* file triggers HMR.
+
+**Alternative considered:** `resolveId` — fires earlier, but doesn't have the source code and is the wrong semantic (resolution, not analysis).
+
+### 2. Synchronous re-analysis within transform
+
+When transform detects a new file (not in `fileCache`), it:
+1. Computes the content hash and adds the file to `fileCache`
+2. Calls `buildFileEntriesFromCache()` to build the full file list
+3. Calls `runAnalysis()` synchronously — updates `storedManifest` in place
+4. Re-checks `storedManifest.files` and transforms if the file now has components
+
+This is safe because `runAnalysis()` is synchronous (NAPI call) and the Rust cache means only the new file is actually parsed. Worst case for a 50-file project: ~2ms for the new file parse + ~1ms for cache-hit traversal of the other 49 files.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Deferred analysis (set a flag, analyze on next HMR cycle) — but this means the first render is always unstyled, defeating the purpose.
+
+### 3. configureServer hook for CSS invalidation
+
+After re-analysis in the transform hook, the component CSS virtual module contains stale content. To deliver the new CSS immediately, the plugin needs to invalidate `virtual:animus/components.js` and send an HMR update.
+
+A `configureServer` hook stores the dev server reference in the plugin closure. The transform hook uses it to invalidate and trigger an HMR update for the component CSS module after new-file analysis.
+
+**Alternative considered:** No invalidation (wait for next natural HMR cycle) — acceptable fallback but degrades DX. The component would render unstyled for the brief window between first import and next file save.
+
+**Trade-off:** The HMR update for the CSS module triggers after transform returns. Vite's HMR pipeline processes the invalidation asynchronously, so the first transform result returns the correctly transformed JS (with `createComponent()` calls), and the CSS arrives via the adopted stylesheet moments later. In practice this is imperceptible.
+
+### 4. Guard: only trigger for genuinely new files
+
+The detection ONLY fires when `!fileCache.has(relativePath)`. Files already in the cache that simply aren't in the manifest (e.g., files with no builder chains) do NOT trigger re-analysis on every transform call. This is important — without this guard, every non-component file would trigger a redundant analysis on every HMR cycle.
+
+After the first detection and analysis, the file is in `fileCache`. Subsequent changes go through the normal `handleHotUpdate` path.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Multiple new files imported simultaneously** → Each triggers its own transform → analysis cycle sequentially. The Rust cache means only the first analysis is expensive (relatively — still <5ms). Subsequent ones skip already-cached files. Acceptable for the dev-time use case.
+
+**[Risk] Non-component file triggers one unnecessary analysis** → A new `.tsx` file with no builder chains gets added to `fileCache`, triggers `runAnalysis()`, Rust finds nothing. The file is now in the cache, so this only happens once per file. Cost: one ~3ms analysis. No ongoing overhead.
+
+**[Risk] Transform returns before CSS arrives** → The first render may flash unstyled for a frame until the HMR update delivers the adopted stylesheet. This is the same behavior as any other HMR CSS update and is imperceptible in practice.
+
+**[Risk] File deletion leaves stale cache entries** → Pre-existing issue, not introduced by this change. `fileCache` never evicts entries for deleted files. The Rust cache returns stale data for them. Flagged as a separate concern.

+## Why
+
+Files created during `vite dev` are invisible to the extraction pipeline. The `buildStart` hook scans the filesystem once (the "geological survey") and populates `fileCache` — new files aren't in that cache, so they never reach `analyzeProject()`. The component renders as an unstyled element until the dev server is restarted. This is the most common DX friction point during active development.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Transform-time new file detection**: The `transform` hook becomes the "immigration checkpoint" — when it encounters a file not in `fileCache`, it registers it and re-runs analysis synchronously before transforming. The Rust crate's per-file cache makes this cheap: only the new file is parsed, everything else is a cache hit.
+- **Dev server reference for CSS invalidation**: A `configureServer` hook stores the dev server reference so `transform` can invalidate the component CSS virtual module after new-file analysis. Without this, styles wouldn't appear until the next HMR cycle.
+- **Logging**: New-file detection events are logged at the standard verbosity level for debugging visibility.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `hmr-new-file-detection`: The Vite plugin detects files created after `buildStart` during dev mode. When `transform` encounters an unknown file, it adds the file to the analysis set, re-runs extraction, invalidates the component CSS module, and transforms the file — all synchronously within the same transform call.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: The `transform` hook gains a new-file detection path. A `configureServer` hook is added to store the dev server reference. No behavioral changes to existing files — the new path only activates for files absent from `fileCache`.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`**: ~20 lines added — `configureServer` hook (3 lines), transform checkpoint logic (15 lines), one log call.
+- **No Rust changes**: The NAPI functions and per-file cache work as-is. `analyzeProject()` already handles new entries in the file list gracefully.
+- **No new dependencies**: Uses existing `contentHash`, `buildFileEntriesFromCache`, `runAnalysis` internals.
+- **No breaking changes**: Existing files follow the same path. The new detection is additive.

+In dev mode, when the `transform` hook encounters a file that is NOT in `fileCache`, the plugin SHALL treat it as a new file: compute its content hash, register it in `fileCache`, rebuild the file entries list, and re-run `analyzeProject()` synchronously. If the re-analysis produces manifest entries for the file, the plugin SHALL transform it normally. If no entries are produced, the plugin SHALL return `null`.
+
+#### Scenario: New component file detected and extracted
+- **WHEN** a new `.tsx` file containing `ds.styles(...).asElement('div')` is created during dev
+- **AND** another file imports and uses it
+- **AND** the `transform` hook is called for the new file
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL add the file to `fileCache` with its content hash
+- **AND** call `runAnalysis()` with the updated file entries
+- **AND** return the transformed source with `createComponent()` replacement
+
+#### Scenario: New non-component file passes through
+- **WHEN** a new `.tsx` file with no builder chains is created during dev
+- **AND** the `transform` hook is called for it
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL add the file to `fileCache`
+- **AND** call `runAnalysis()` with the updated file entries
+- **AND** return `null` (no transformation needed — file has no extractable components)
+
+#### Scenario: Known file without components skips re-analysis
+- **WHEN** a file is already in `fileCache` but has no entries in the manifest
+- **AND** the `transform` hook is called for it
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT re-run analysis (the file is known, just not extractable)
+- **AND** return `null`
+
+#### Scenario: Detection fires only once per file
+- **WHEN** a new file is detected and registered in `fileCache` during transform
+- **AND** the file is subsequently modified, triggering HMR
+- **THEN** `handleHotUpdate` SHALL process the file normally via the existing content-hash path
+- **AND** the transform hook SHALL NOT trigger new-file detection again (file is now in `fileCache`)
+
+### Requirement: CSS invalidation after new file analysis
+After detecting a new file and running re-analysis in the transform hook, the plugin SHALL invalidate the component CSS virtual module (`virtual:animus/components.js`) and send an HMR update to the browser. This ensures the adopted stylesheet includes CSS for the newly extracted component.
+
+#### Scenario: Adopted stylesheet updated after new file extraction
+- **WHEN** a new component file is detected and extracted during transform
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL invalidate the `virtual:animus/components.js` module in the module graph
+- **AND** send an HMR update so the browser's adopted stylesheet picks up the new component CSS
+
+#### Scenario: No CSS invalidation for non-component files
+- **WHEN** a new file is detected during transform but produces no manifest entries
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT invalidate any virtual modules
+
+### Requirement: New file detection logging
+New file detection events SHALL be logged at the standard logging level (not verbose-only). The log message SHALL include the file path and whether extraction produced components.
+
+#### Scenario: Component file detected
+- **WHEN** a new file is detected and extraction produces components
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL log: `New file detected: <relativePath> — <N> components extracted`
+
+#### Scenario: Non-component file detected
+- **WHEN** a new file is detected but extraction produces no components
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL log: `New file detected: <relativePath> — no components`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Dev server reference stored via configureServer
+The plugin SHALL implement a `configureServer` hook that stores the Vite dev server reference in the plugin closure. This reference SHALL be available to other hooks (`transform`, `handleHotUpdate`) for programmatic module invalidation and HMR updates.
+
+#### Scenario: Server reference available during transform
+- **WHEN** the dev server is running and a `transform` call needs to invalidate a virtual module
+- **THEN** the stored server reference SHALL be available for calling `server.moduleGraph.invalidateModule()` and `server.hot.send()`
+
+#### Scenario: Server reference not set in production
+- **WHEN** the plugin runs during a production build (`vite build`)
+- **THEN** no `configureServer` hook fires and the server reference SHALL remain `undefined`
+- **AND** transform SHALL not attempt CSS invalidation

+## Context
+
+The showcase site proves Animus extraction works at the component level (31 components, compose patterns, 10 color modes). But the shell — navigation, layout, page structure — is desktop-only React with no responsive behavior, no mobile navigation, and no compositional structure. The `collapse` variant on DocsLayout exists but is hardcoded to `"full"`. The Examples page is a flat 715-line wall. The color mode toggle cycles blindly through 10 modes.
+
+The site needs to prove Animus works at the *application* level: responsive layouts, composed navigation, state-driven drawers, accessible controls — all built with the builder chain and extraction pipeline.
+
+**Current token infrastructure (verified):**
+- Breakpoints: 2xs(400), xs(480), sm(768), md(1024), lg(1200), xl(1440)
+- Sizes: navHeight(48px), sidebarWidth(200px), tocWidth(180px)
+- Color modes: 10 (dark, light, midnight, ember, ocean, forest, violet, rose, terra, adobe)
+- Responsive prop syntax: `{ _: default, sm: value, md: value }` — working on Home.tsx
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Mobile-usable navigation and docs layout (< 768px)
+- Every new layout component built as an Animus composition exercise
+- Color mode selection with preview and direct access
+- Examples page with navigable section structure
+- Accessibility baseline (skip-to-content, reduced-motion, ARIA)
+- Consistent content width rhythm across all pages
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing the system package API (all work scoped to showcase)
+- Server-side rendering or SSG (showcase is a client SPA)
+- Adding new Animus system features (this consumes existing features only)
+- Responsive behavior on the Home page (already works via breakpoint props)
+- Touch gestures (swipe-to-close drawer, etc.) — keyboard + click only
+- Dark/light mode *detection* (prefers-color-scheme) — users choose explicitly
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Drawer as a composed family with portal overlay
+
+**Choice:** Build `Drawer` as `compose({ Root, Overlay, Panel, Header, Body }, { shared: { position: true } })` where `Root` renders Overlay + Panel via portal, Panel slides in from left/right based on `position` variant.
+
+**Why over inline implementation:** The Drawer is the highest-value new component for proving compose() at the layout level. It exercises: compose() shared variants (position flows to Panel slide direction and Overlay positioning), states (open/closed), portal rendering (Overlay covers viewport), and asChild (trigger element delegation).
+
+**Why not context: true:** Drawer renders into a portal, but the Panel is a *direct child* of Root in the React tree — Root controls what renders. There's no case where a child slot escapes Root's React subtree. CSS cascade works fine here.
+
+**Visual identity — "The Seam":**
+
+The drawer should feel like *cracking open* the interface — a threshold reveal, not a generic slide panel.
+
+- **Overlay:** `bg: 'bg/85'` — the same void as the page background but denser. Add `backdrop-filter: blur(2px)` to push the content away. The existing SVG noise texture bleeds through at the body level naturally.
+- **Panel edge:** The seam between panel and overlay gets a vertical FireLine-style gradient border: `borderRight` with `linear-gradient(180deg, transparent, {colors.primary}, {colors.accent}, {colors.primary}, transparent)` and `glow-edge` shadow. The seam *glows*.
+- **Panel background:** `bg: 'bg.muted'` — same depth as page but slightly darker. Not `surface` (too bright, breaks the void feel).
+- **Entry animation:** The RevealBlock spring curve — `cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1)` — not the default `ease`. Panel slides in with this curve. Panel *contents* (header, nav items) cascade in with staggered delay variants (0.15s increments), the same reveal pattern from the Home page.
+- **Close affordance:** No `X` button. The overlay is the close target. Optionally, a thin `←` arrow in IBM Plex Mono (11px, uppercase, letter-spaced) in the Header slot — matching the nav item style.

+```
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- CSS-only drawer with `:target` or checkbox hack — too brittle, no state management
+- Dialog element — correct semantically but doesn't compose with Animus builder chain naturally (dialog has its own backdrop, sizing)
+- Headless library (Radix Dialog) — adds dependency, defeats "prove Animus can do this" goal
+
+### Decision 2: Responsive DocsLayout via responsive prop value
+
+**Choice:** Change `collapse="full"` to `collapse={{ _: 'focused', sm: 'content', md: 'full' }}` — a one-line change that makes the 3-column layout responsive using existing infrastructure.
+
+**Why this works:** DocsLayout already uses compose() with `shared: { collapse: true }`. The `collapse` variant already defines `full`, `content`, and `focused` modes with correct display/grid behavior. Responsive prop objects generate breakpoint-specific classes at extraction time. No new components needed — just use what exists.
+
+**Mobile (< 768px):** `focused` mode — content only, sidebar in Drawer, no TOC.
+**Tablet (768-1024px):** `content` mode — sidebar visible, no TOC.
+**Desktop (1024+):** `full` mode — sidebar + content + TOC.
+
+### Decision 3: NavBar as a composed family replacing Shell nav
+
+**Choice:** Build `NavBar` as `compose({ Root, Brand, Links, Actions, MobileTrigger }, { shared: { mode: true } })` where `mode` variant controls desktop (inline links) vs mobile (hidden links, visible trigger).
+
+**Why composed:** The nav has multiple slots that need coordinated visibility behavior — exactly what compose() shared variants solve. `mode` variant with `inline` (show links, hide trigger) and `compact` (hide links, show trigger) values, driven by responsive prop: `mode={{ _: 'compact', md: 'inline' }}`.
+
+**Visual identity — "The Reduction":**
+
+On mobile, the nav doesn't *collapse* — it *distills*. Maximum reduction.
+
+- **Mobile trigger:** Not a hamburger icon. A single `{` character in IBM Plex Mono, 16px, `color: 'primary'`. The opening brace is literally the Animus brand mark (the `{` pillar from the Home page feature section). Tap to open the sidebar drawer.
+- **Desktop layout:** `ANIMUS    home    docs              ─  dark` — five elements with flex spacer.
+- **Mobile layout:** `ANIMUS  {                              dark` — three elements. Brand, trigger, mode. Everything else is in the drawer.
+- **Brand position:** Left-anchored always. Trigger clusters next to brand on mobile, not far right.
+- **Nav border:** Keep the 1px `borderBottom: 'border'` in both modes. The thin line grounds the nav to the page. `bg: 'bg'` — opaque, not transparent.
+- **Typography:** All nav items 12px IBM Plex Mono, uppercase, 0.1em letter-spacing — matching existing NavItem style. No Geist in structural chrome.
+
+```
+DESKTOP:  ANIMUS    home    docs              ─  dark
+MOBILE:   ANIMUS  {                              dark
+```
+
+**Why not media queries in CSS:** Using responsive props keeps the pattern consistent with DocsLayout and demonstrates that Animus responsive props work for layout-level concerns, not just component-level spacing.
+
+### Decision 4: ColorPalette as grid of stateful swatches
+
+**Choice:** Build a `ColorPalette` component with a grid of color mode swatches. Each swatch previews its mode's primary/bg/surface colors. Active mode gets a visual indicator (ring, border). Clicking selects. Keyboard navigable via arrow keys on a listbox/radiogroup pattern.
+
+**Architecture:** The palette lives in a Drawer panel (right-positioned), triggered from the nav's Actions slot. Each swatch is an Animus component with states (active, hover) and the color scheme pattern (each swatch rebinds `--preview-*` variables to show that mode's colors).
+
+**Visual identity — "Modes as Worlds":**
+
+Each color mode isn't a color — it's an *atmosphere*. The palette should preview that atmosphere.
+
+- **Swatch design:** Not circles or dots. Each swatch is a miniature **mode landscape** (~48x64px) — a tiny rectangle showing three horizontal bands: background color at top (60%), a thin 2px line in primary color across the middle, text color at bottom (40%). Three layers. A tiny slice of what that world looks like.
+- **Active indicator:** Not a ring. The active swatch gets `glow-edge` elevation — `boxShadow: '0 0 12px {colors.glow/15}, 0 0 4px {colors.glow/25}'` using *that mode's* primary as the glow source, not the current mode's primary. It glows in its own color.
+- **Layout:** 2x5 grid with 4px gaps and 1px borders between cells. Dense, like a typesetter's case. The whole grid has the technical density of the existing UI.
+- **Labels:** Each swatch has its mode name below in 9px uppercase IBM Plex Mono. Always visible, no tooltip needed.
+- **Hover:** `_hover` scales swatch slightly (`transform: scale(1.06)`) with glow intensification. Spring curve: `cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1)`.
+- **Focus:** `_focusVisible` shows 2px outline in `primary` with 2px offset — matching Button focus style.
+- **Placement:** Right-positioned Drawer (reusing the Drawer component). Current mode name stays in NavBar Actions as text trigger.

+└──────┴──────┘
+```
+
+**Why not keep the cycle button:** 10 modes with no preview means users can't find what they want. The palette makes the color system *discoverable* — which is the point of the showcase.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- Dropdown select — functional but boring, doesn't showcase Animus
+- Carousel — interaction complexity without payoff
+- Keep cycle + add a label — still no preview, still sequential
+
+### Decision 5: ExampleNav via IntersectionObserver + sticky positioning
+
+**Choice:** Add a sticky section navigator to the Examples page. Horizontal tab strip at the top of the page that highlights the current section as user scrolls. Clicking a tab scrolls to that section. Pattern mirrors PageToc but oriented horizontally.
+
+**Visual identity — "The Index":**
+
+Not tabs — a monospaced index strip. Like the line numbers in a text editor, but horizontal and showing section names.
+
+- **Typography:** 11px IBM Plex Mono, uppercase, 0.05em letter-spacing — matching the existing RowLabel/ColHeader pattern exactly.
+- **Active indicator:** `borderBottom: 2` in `primary` — the same 2px border pattern from SidebarItem and TocLink, rotated 90 degrees. Consistency across all navigation surfaces.
+- **Inactive items:** `color: 'text.dim'` — the faintest text tone. Active: `color: 'primary'`. Hover: `color: 'text.muted'`. The four-step ramp.
+- **Separators:** Between items, a thin vertical 1px line in `border` color — matching NavDivider.
+- **Sticky behavior:** Sticks below nav with a top border (1px `borderTop: 'border'`) creating a visual "docking" effect. `bg: 'bg'` — opaque so content scrolls behind it. The noise texture bleeds through at the body level.
+- **Overflow on mobile:** `overflow-x: auto` with `scrollbar-width: none` (`::-webkit-scrollbar { display: none }`). Strip scrolls horizontally without visible scrollbar. Thin separators between items create natural peek affordance at edges.
+- **No rounded corners, no pill backgrounds, no colored fills** on items. Just text, color, and thin lines. Maximum reduction.
+
+```
+──────────────────────────────────────────────────
+  MATRIX │ USAGE │ EXTERNAL │ TRANSFORMS │ ALIASES │ COMPOSE │ ...
+  ═══════                                            
+──────────────────────────────────────────────────
+   ↑ 2px primary border on active item
+```
+
+**Why sticky horizontal:** The Examples page already lives inside DocsLayout on mobile-tablet, so a vertical sidebar nav would compete with the docs sidebar. Horizontal sticky strip sits above the content and doesn't require layout changes.
+
+**Section IDs:** Add `id` attributes to each Section's Heading in Examples.tsx for scroll targeting and deep linking.
+
+### Decision 6: Content width normalization
+
+**Choice:** Standardize all content containers to `maxWidth: '48rem'` (the DocsLayout value). Remove the `44rem` and `40rem` variants from Home.tsx and Examples.tsx.
+
+**Why 48rem:** It's already the DocsLayout standard. Wide enough for code examples. Narrow enough for comfortable reading. One value = one rhythm.
+
+### Decision 7: Accessibility as component-level concerns, not a separate layer
+
+**Choice:** Embed accessibility into each new component rather than building a separate accessibility wrapper layer.
+
+- **SkipLink:** Single component, `_focusVisible` selector alias for visible-on-focus. When visible, styled like the install badge from Home CTA — `bg: 'surface'`, `border: 1`, `borderColor: 'border'`, mono font 12px. Text: `SKIP TO CONTENT →`. Feels like a keyboard shortcut hint, not a banner.
+- **Drawer:** `aria-expanded` on trigger, `aria-modal` on panel, focus trap via `onKeyDown` handler (not a library)
+- **ColorPalette:** `role="radiogroup"` with `role="radio"` swatches, `aria-checked`, arrow key navigation
+- **RevealBlock:** Wrap `transform`/`opacity` transitions in `@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce)` variant — the extraction pipeline emits this as a standard media query in the CSS
+- **NavBar MobileTrigger:** `aria-label="Open navigation"`, `aria-expanded`
+
+**Why not a library (focus-trap-react, etc.):** The Drawer's focus trap is simple — tab cycles between panel children, Escape closes. A 15-line `onKeyDown` handler suffices. Adding a library for one component defeats the "built with Animus" narrative.
+
+### Decision 8: Reduced-motion via media query in styles, not runtime detection
+
+**Choice:** Add `@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce)` styles directly in component style objects using the `@media` nesting syntax that the extraction pipeline already supports.
+
+```typescript
+// In RevealBlock, Logo, or any animated component
+ds.styles({
+  transition: 'opacity 0.6s ease, transform 0.6s ease',
+  '@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce)': {
+    transition: 'none',
+    transform: 'none',
+    opacity: '1',
+  },
+})
+```
+
+**Why:** This is purely a CSS concern — no JavaScript `matchMedia` needed. The extraction pipeline emits it as a standard `@media` block in the CSS output. Zero runtime cost.
+
+### Decision 9: Cross-cutting visual language for all new components
+
+**Choice:** All new structural/chrome components share a consistent visual vocabulary derived from the existing showcase DNA. This isn't a style guide — it's a set of constraints that ensure new components feel *born from* the existing site.
+
+**Typography in chrome:** IBM Plex Mono everywhere in structural UI (nav, drawer, palette, example nav). Geist is for *content* only (Prose, markdown body). No mixing. Sizes: 9-13px for chrome elements, uppercase with letter-spacing for labels.
+
+**Border vocabulary:** 1-2px only. Never thicker. Never rounded on structural elements. The existing site uses `border: 1` (1px solid) and `borderLeft: 2` (2px for active indicators). New components follow the same.
+
+**Motion signature:** `cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1)` — the spring-out ease from RevealBlock — is the *only* entry animation curve. Stagger cascading items with 0.15s increments (delay variants 0-4). Transitions use `0.15s ease` for state changes (hover, focus, active).
+
+**Color ramp for interactive states:** `text.dim` (resting) → `text.muted` (available) → `text` (hover) → `primary` (active/selected). This four-step ramp is already used in NavItem, SidebarItem, TocLink. New components must follow it.
+
+**Elevation = glow, not shadow:** Elevation is expressed through primary-tinted glow (`boxShadow` with `{colors.glow/N}` opacity), never through black drop-shadow. Add `glow-edge` shadow token: `'0 0 12px {colors.glow/15}, 0 0 4px {colors.glow/25}'` for the drawer seam and palette active state.
+
+**Density:** Tight. The existing UI is 11-13px type, 4-8px padding, 2px borders. New components match this density. The showcase should feel like a *tool*, not a marketing page.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Drawer focus trap is hand-rolled** → Mitigation: Keep it minimal (tab cycling + Escape). Test with VoiceOver. If edge cases emerge, the trap can be extracted to a utility without changing the component API.
+
+**[Risk] Responsive prop on compose() shared variant is untested at this scale** → Mitigation: DocsLayout already uses compose() with collapse. The responsive prop syntax is proven on Home.tsx. This just combines them. Write a test case.
+
+**[Risk] ColorPalette swatch preview requires reading another mode's token values** → Mitigation: Each swatch can hardcode its mode's bg/primary/surface colors since the 10 modes are known and static. No dynamic theme reading needed.
+
+**[Risk] ExampleNav IntersectionObserver duplicates PageToc pattern** → Mitigation: Both are small (~50 lines). Extracting a shared hook would be premature abstraction for two call sites. If a third appears, consolidate then.
+
+**[Risk] Content width change (44rem → 48rem on Home) may affect visual balance** → Mitigation: Review after implementation. The Scene component's maxWidth is a system prop — easy to adjust.
+
+**[Trade-off] No swipe gestures on Drawer** — Mobile users expect swipe-to-close. Accepted for v1 — click/tap the overlay or press Escape. Swipe can be added later without API changes.
+
+**[Trade-off] No prefers-color-scheme detection** — Users must manually select their color mode. This is intentional — the showcase demonstrates the 10-mode system, not OS integration.

+## Why
+
+The showcase site is the primary proof that Animus works end-to-end. Currently it proves *component-level* extraction (31 components, compose patterns, color modes, asChild) but fails to prove *application-level* capability. The layout shell, navigation, and page structure are desktop-only, flat, and don't exercise the system's responsive, compositional, or state-driven features. Below ~1024px the three-column docs grid causes horizontal scroll, navigation is unreachable, and the Examples page is a 715-line wall with no discoverability.
+
+The showcase should eat its own dog food comprehensively — the layout *itself* should be a composition exercise, not a React-with-inline-styles afterthought.
+
+## What Changes
+
+### New Components (expand the library)
+- **Drawer** — a composed slide-out panel family (Root/Overlay/Panel/Header/Body) with shared `position` variant (left/right) and `open` state. Used for mobile sidebar, but general-purpose. Demonstrates compose() + states + portal + asChild trigger.
+- **NavBar** — a composed responsive nav family (Root/Brand/Links/Actions/Trigger) with shared `collapse` variant. Renders inline links at `md+`, hides behind Drawer trigger below. Demonstrates compose() + responsive props + asChild.
+- **ColorPalette** — a color mode selection component replacing the blind-cycle toggle. Grid of swatches with active state, preview on hover, current mode indicator. Demonstrates states + selector aliases (_hover, _focusVisible) + color scheme pattern.
+- **ExampleNav** — in-page section navigation for the Examples page. Sticky horizontal tab strip or vertical list with IntersectionObserver-driven active state. Demonstrates states + sticky positioning + compose().
+- **SkipLink** — accessible skip-to-content link. Demonstrates _focusVisible selector alias.
+
+### Layout Changes
+- **Shell.tsx** — replace flat nav with NavBar composed family. Add SkipLink. Wire Drawer for mobile sidebar.
+- **DocsLayout.tsx** — make `collapse` responsive: `collapse={{ _: 'focused', sm: 'content', md: 'full' }}`. The compose() shared variant + responsive prop syntax makes this a one-line change.
+- **Examples.tsx** — add ExampleNav component for section discovery. Add heading IDs for deep linking.
+
+### Design System Tokens
+- Add `drawerWidth` to sizes tokens (280px)
+- Add `glow-edge` shadow token (`0 0 12px {colors.glow/15}, 0 0 4px {colors.glow/25}`) for drawer seam and palette active state
+
+### Accessibility
+- `prefers-reduced-motion` handling in RevealBlock and Logo animations
+- `aria-label` on ColorPalette and NavBar trigger
+- `aria-current` on PageToc active link
+- `aria-expanded` on Drawer trigger
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `responsive-shell-layout`: Responsive navigation shell — NavBar collapses to hamburger + Drawer on mobile, DocsLayout collapse responds to viewport, consistent content width rhythm across pages
+- `color-mode-palette`: Enhanced color mode selection — grid of previewed swatches replacing blind cycle, active state indication, keyboard navigable
+- `examples-page-navigation`: In-page section discovery for the Examples page — sticky nav with active tracking via IntersectionObserver, deep-linkable sections
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `markdown-renderer`: Add heading ID generation for deep linking (if not already present — needs verification)
+
+## Impact
+
+- **packages/showcase/** — all changes scoped here. No system package API changes.
+- **New files**: ~5 new component files (Drawer, NavBar, ColorPalette, ExampleNav, SkipLink)
+- **Modified files**: Shell.tsx, DocsLayout.tsx, Examples.tsx, ds.ts (tokens), index.ts (barrel exports)
+- **Dependencies**: None new. All built with existing @animus-ui/system API.
+- **Bundle impact**: Minimal — new components are small, extracted to static CSS.
+- **Breaking changes**: None. All changes are additive or internal to showcase.

+## Context
+
+Compose families propagate shared variants from Root to children via CSS descendant selectors. Two rules per option per child maintain a specificity contract:
+
+- **Inheritance** (`.Root.Root--var-opt .Child`): parent distributes variant to child — (0,3,0)
+- **Override** (`.Root .Child.Child--var-opt`): child's explicit prop overrides parent — (0,3,0)
+
+When a child has `defaultVariant`, the runtime applies the default's variant class (e.g., `--density-comfortable`) even when no prop is passed. This causes the override rule for the default option to match and tie with the inheritance rule from the parent at (0,3,0). Source order breaks the tie — the default's override rule comes later and wins. The parent's setting is ignored.
+
+The runtime already passes `vc.default` to `resolveClasses` via the extracted config (transform_emitter.rs:160). The `resolveClasses` function currently uses `props[prop] ?? vc.default` at line 123, treating both paths identically for class name generation.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Parent's shared variant always overrides a child's `defaultVariant` in compose families
+- Explicit child prop still overrides parent (preserving override rule semantics)
+- All compose rules stay at (0,3,0) — no specificity inflation
+- Standalone components with `defaultVariant` render identically (no behavioral change outside compose)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing the compose rule structure (inheritance + override pair)
+- Adding context-mode awareness to CSS emission
+- Handling cases where `defaultVariant` varies across children in the same family (this works naturally — each child gets its own sidecar)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Sidecar class naming: `--{prop}-default`
+
+When a variant value comes from `defaultVariant` fallback (not an explicit prop), the runtime emits `{className}--{prop}-default` instead of `{className}--{prop}-{value}`.
+
+The CSS generator emits a sidecar rule: `.{className}--{prop}-default { ...default option's declarations... }`. This is a duplicate of the default option's styles at specificity (0,1,0).
+
+**Why this name:** `default` is a reserved word in most languages and can never collide with a user-defined variant option name. It clearly communicates intent. The class carries no information about WHICH option is the default — that's a feature, not a bug. The sidecar is an alias.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Using `--{prop}-fallback-{value}` (e.g., `--density-fallback-comfortable`). Rejected because it makes the override rule for "comfortable" match when the user meant "default," defeating the purpose.
+
+### 2. Runtime branching in `resolveClasses`
+
+Current code (resolveClasses.ts:122-128):
+```typescript
+for (const [prop, vc] of Object.entries(config.variants)) {
+  const value = props[prop] ?? vc.default;
+  if (value != null) {
+    classes.push(`${baseClassName}--${prop}-${value}`);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+New code:
+```typescript
+for (const [prop, vc] of Object.entries(config.variants)) {
+  const value = props[prop] ?? vc.default;
+  if (value != null) {
+    const isDefault = !(prop in props) && vc.default != null;
+    classes.push(`${baseClassName}--${prop}-${isDefault ? 'default' : value}`);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The `prop in props` check distinguishes "user passed the prop" from "fell through to default." When `isDefault` is true, the class uses `default` instead of the option name. This prevents the compose override rule from matching.
+
+**Why `prop in props`:** Using `props[prop] === undefined` would fail if a user explicitly passes `undefined` (unlikely but possible). `in` checks for key presence regardless of value.
+
+### 3. CSS generator emits sidecar in `@layer variants`
+
+The sidecar rule is emitted inside `@layer variants` alongside normal variant rules. It uses the standalone variant format (single class selector, specificity 0,1,0):
+
+```css
+.animus-Child-xxx--density-default {
+  /* same declarations as --density-comfortable */
+}
+```
+
+This rule is only emitted when a variant has `defaultVariant`. It's a sibling of the existing per-option rules, not a replacement.
+
+**Why not a separate layer:** Keeping it in `@layer variants` maintains the cascade contract. The sidecar's (0,1,0) is lower than compose rules (0,3,0) but participates in the same layer — no new layer ordering concerns.
+
+### 4. No reconciler changes needed
+
+The sidecar class (`--{prop}-default`) is a CSS-only artifact. The reconciler operates on variant OPTION names (e.g., "comfortable", "compact"), not class names. The sidecar rule is emitted for any variant that has `defaultVariant`, regardless of usage — it's structural, not usage-dependent. The reconciler doesn't need to know about it.
+
+However, the reconciler must continue preserving variant options on compose children (the existing pre-population at project_analyzer.rs:1117-1140 handles this). No changes to reconciler logic.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Having the reconciler track `--default` class usage. Rejected because the sidecar is always needed when `defaultVariant` exists — tracking adds complexity with no benefit.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **Additional CSS per `defaultVariant`**: Each variant with `defaultVariant` emits one extra rule — a duplicate of the default option's declarations. For a typical component with 1-2 variants with defaults, this is ~2 extra rules. Minimal size impact.
+  → Mitigation: The sidecar duplicates exactly one option's declarations. Gzip compresses duplicated content well.
+
+- **`"default"` as option name collision**: If a user names a variant option `"default"`, the sidecar class would collide.
+  → Mitigation: `"default"` is a JS reserved word. Builder chain validation could reject it as an option name, but this is a non-goal for this change. Document as a reserved name.
+
+- **Compound variant interaction**: Compound variants match on `props[prop] ?? vc.default`. The compound logic already handles this correctly (resolveClasses.ts:135 uses the same fallback path). No interaction with sidecar class naming because compounds match on VALUES, not class names.

+## Why
+
+When a compose child slot has `defaultVariant`, the parent's shared variant cannot override it. The root cause is a CSS specificity tie: the compose inheritance rule (`.Root.Root--var-opt .Child`, specificity 0,3,0) ties with the compose override rule for the child's default option (`.Root .Child.Child--var-default`, also 0,3,0). The override rule wins by source order, making the child's default always beat the parent's explicit setting. This makes `defaultVariant` on compose children effectively break slot inheritance.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Sidecar default class**: When a variant value comes from `defaultVariant` fallback (not an explicit prop), the runtime applies a dedicated `--{prop}-default` class instead of the option-specific variant class (e.g., `--density-default` instead of `--density-comfortable`). The extractor emits a sidecar CSS rule at specificity (0,1,0) carrying the default option's styles.
+- **Compose specificity preserved**: Compose inheritance and override rules stay at (0,3,0). The sidecar class at (0,1,0) never competes — compose rules always win. Override rules only match when a child has an explicit variant prop, preserving the "explicit child override" semantic.
+- **Runtime class resolution**: `resolveClasses()` distinguishes default-fallback from explicit prop and emits the appropriate class name.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `variant-default-sidecar`: Sidecar CSS class and runtime resolution for `defaultVariant` fallback values, preventing specificity conflicts with compose inheritance.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `compose-css-propagation`: Compose inheritance now correctly overrides child `defaultVariant` classes. No rule shape change — the fix is in which class the child receives at runtime.
+- `css-reconciler`: Reconciler must treat `--{prop}-default` as a used class for components with `defaultVariant`, ensuring the sidecar rule is not pruned.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Rust crate** (`css_generator.rs`): Emit sidecar `--{prop}-default` rule when variant has `defaultVariant`
+- **Rust crate** (`project_analyzer.rs`): Include default class info in component manifest for runtime consumption
+- **Runtime** (`resolveClasses.ts`): Branch on default-vs-explicit when building variant class name

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Two-rule composed variant emission
+For each shared variant option on each child slot in a composed family, the extraction pipeline SHALL emit two CSS rules within `@layer variants`: an inheritance rule and an override rule.
+
+#### Scenario: Inheritance rule structure
+- **WHEN** a composed family has Root with variant `size` (options: `sm`, `md`) and Child is a slot with a `size` variant
+- **THEN** the pipeline SHALL emit an inheritance rule: `.{root-class}.{root-class}--size-sm .{child-class} { ...child's size-sm declarations... }` for each option
+
+#### Scenario: Override rule structure
+- **WHEN** a composed family has Root with variant `size` and Child has a `size` variant
+- **THEN** the pipeline SHALL emit an override rule: `.{root-class} .{child-class}.{child-class}--size-sm { ...child's size-sm declarations... }` for each option
+
+#### Scenario: Equal specificity contract
+- **WHEN** both the inheritance rule and override rule are emitted for the same variant option
+- **THEN** both rules SHALL have identical CSS specificity (0, 3, 0) — three class selectors each
+
+#### Scenario: Source order determines override
+- **WHEN** both rules are emitted
+- **THEN** the inheritance rule SHALL be emitted BEFORE the override rule in CSS source order, so that the override rule wins at equal specificity when both selectors match
+
+#### Scenario: Override rule matches only explicit child props
+- **WHEN** a child slot has `defaultVariant: 'comfortable'` and no explicit `density` prop is passed to the child
+- **THEN** the child SHALL receive `--density-default` (not `--density-comfortable`), and the override rule `.Root .Child.Child--density-comfortable` SHALL NOT match — only the inheritance rule from the parent applies
+
+#### Scenario: Override rule matches explicit child prop
+- **WHEN** a child slot explicitly receives `density="comfortable"` as a prop
+- **THEN** the child SHALL receive `--density-comfortable`, and the override rule `.Root .Child.Child--density-comfortable` SHALL match and win over inheritance by source order

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Sidecar default class not subject to reconciliation
+The reconciler SHALL NOT attempt to prune or track sidecar default classes (`--{prop}-default`). Sidecar rules are structural artifacts of `defaultVariant` — they are always needed when the variant has a default and are emitted unconditionally by the CSS generator.
+
+#### Scenario: Sidecar survives reconciliation
+- **WHEN** component `Card` has variant `density` with `defaultVariant: 'comfortable'` and the reconciler prunes unused variant options
+- **THEN** the sidecar rule `.animus-Card-xxx--density-default` SHALL remain in the output CSS regardless of which density options appear in the usage ledger
+
+#### Scenario: Reconciler still prunes unused option-specific rules
+- **WHEN** component `Card` has variant `density` with options `compact`, `comfortable`, `roomy` and only `compact` and `comfortable` are used
+- **THEN** the reconciler SHALL prune `--density-roomy` but SHALL preserve `--density-default` (the sidecar for whichever option is the default)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Sidecar default class emission
+When a variant has `defaultVariant` specified, the CSS generator SHALL emit a sidecar rule using the class `{className}--{prop}-default` containing the default option's resolved declarations. This rule SHALL be emitted within `@layer variants` alongside the normal per-option variant rules.
+
+#### Scenario: Sidecar rule emitted for variant with defaultVariant
+- **WHEN** component `Card` has variant `density` with options `compact`, `comfortable` and `defaultVariant: 'comfortable'`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain a rule `.animus-Card-xxx--density-default { ...comfortable's declarations... }` within `@layer variants`
+
+#### Scenario: Sidecar not emitted without defaultVariant
+- **WHEN** component `Card` has variant `density` with options `compact`, `comfortable` and NO `defaultVariant`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL NOT contain any `--density-default` rule for that component
+
+#### Scenario: Sidecar declarations match default option
+- **WHEN** variant `density` has `defaultVariant: 'comfortable'` and `comfortable` resolves to `{ font-size: 1rem; padding-bottom: 0.5rem; }`
+- **THEN** the sidecar rule `.animus-Card-xxx--density-default` SHALL contain exactly those declarations (including pseudo-selectors and responsive declarations if present on the default option)
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple variants with defaults on same component
+- **WHEN** component `Button` has `variant` with `defaultVariant: 'fill'` AND `size` with `defaultVariant: 'md'`
+- **THEN** the CSS SHALL contain both `.animus-Button-xxx--variant-default` and `.animus-Button-xxx--size-default` sidecar rules
+
+### Requirement: Runtime default class resolution
+When resolving variant classes, the runtime SHALL emit the `--{prop}-default` class when the variant value comes from `defaultVariant` fallback (prop not passed by user), and the `--{prop}-{value}` class when the variant value comes from an explicit prop.
+
+#### Scenario: Prop not passed, defaultVariant exists
+- **WHEN** component renders with no `density` prop and config has `defaultVariant: 'comfortable'`
+- **THEN** the resolved classes SHALL include `{className}--density-default` and SHALL NOT include `{className}--density-comfortable`
+
+#### Scenario: Prop explicitly passed matching default
+- **WHEN** component renders with `density="comfortable"` (explicit prop) and config has `defaultVariant: 'comfortable'`
+- **THEN** the resolved classes SHALL include `{className}--density-comfortable` and SHALL NOT include `{className}--density-default`
+
+#### Scenario: Prop explicitly passed different from default
+- **WHEN** component renders with `density="compact"` and config has `defaultVariant: 'comfortable'`
+- **THEN** the resolved classes SHALL include `{className}--density-compact`
+
+#### Scenario: No defaultVariant configured
+- **WHEN** component renders with no `density` prop and config has NO `defaultVariant`
+- **THEN** no density variant class SHALL be added (existing behavior preserved)
+
+### Requirement: Sidecar specificity contract
+The sidecar default rule SHALL have specificity (0,1,0) — a single class selector. This SHALL be lower than compose inheritance and override rules at (0,3,0), ensuring compose rules always win when both match.
+
+#### Scenario: Compose inheritance beats sidecar default
+- **WHEN** parent Root has `density="compact"` and child has `defaultVariant: 'comfortable'` (no explicit prop)
+- **THEN** the compose inheritance rule `.Root.Root--density-compact .Child` at (0,3,0) SHALL override the sidecar `.Child--density-default` at (0,1,0), applying compact styles to the child
+
+#### Scenario: Compose override wins with explicit child prop
+- **WHEN** parent Root has `density="compact"` and child explicitly passes `density="comfortable"`
+- **THEN** the child receives `--density-comfortable` (not `--density-default`), the compose override rule `.Root .Child.Child--density-comfortable` at (0,3,0) SHALL match, and source-order-later override SHALL beat inheritance
+
+### Requirement: Standalone behavior unchanged
+Components used outside compose families SHALL render identically whether using the sidecar default class or the option-specific class. The sidecar rule contains the same declarations as the default option's rule.
+
+#### Scenario: Standalone component with defaultVariant
+- **WHEN** `Card` is used standalone (not in a compose family) with no `density` prop
+- **THEN** the rendered output SHALL have class `--density-default`, and the sidecar CSS SHALL produce the same visual result as the previous `--density-comfortable` class

+## 1. CSS Generator — Sidecar Rule Emission
+
+- [ ] 1.1 In `css_generator.rs`, emit a `--{prop}-default` sidecar rule when a variant has `defaultVariant`. The sidecar duplicates the default option's declarations (including pseudo-selectors and responsive) as a standalone class rule within `@layer variants`.
+- [ ] 1.2 The sidecar rule must appear alongside normal variant option rules, not inside compose rule output. It's a property of the component, not the family.
+

+- [ ] 2.2 Verify compound variant resolution (`resolveClasses.ts:131-149`) still uses the correct VALUE (not class name) for condition matching — no change needed, but confirm.
+
+## 3. Canary Tests
+
+- [ ] 3.1 Add canary test: variant with `defaultVariant` emits sidecar `--{prop}-default` CSS rule with correct declarations.
+- [ ] 3.2 Add canary test: compose family with `defaultVariant` on child — inheritance rule at (0,3,0) beats sidecar at (0,1,0). Verify composed CSS output includes both compose rules AND sidecar.
+- [ ] 3.3 Update existing compose canary test assertions if class name patterns change in snapshots.
+
+## 4. Showcase Verification
+
+- [ ] 4.1 Add `defaultVariant: 'comfortable'` to Card child slots (CardHeader, CardBody, CardFooter) and verify compose inheritance works in dev server — parent `density="compact"` overrides child defaults.
+- [ ] 4.2 Verify standalone Card children render correctly with `--density-default` class.
+- [ ] 4.3 Run `bun run verify:showcase` — full pipeline proof.

+## Context
+
+Compose variant CSS currently uses specificity engineering within a flat `@layer variants` to order three rule categories: sidecar defaults (0,1,0), inheritance (0,2,0), and overrides (0,3,0). This approach broke twice in one session — CSS minifiers can reorder selectors at equal specificity, and the three-tier system creates source-order dependencies that are invisible until they fail.
+
+The current compose CSS emission lives in `css_generator.rs`:
+- `generate_composed_variant_css()` (line ~518) iterates families/children/shared-keys
+- `write_composed_rule_pair()` (line ~566) emits inheritance + override selectors
+- Compose rules are string-surgery-appended into `@layer variants` in `project_analyzer.rs` (line ~1232)
+
+The sidecar `--{prop}-default` class was added to `VariantCss.default_option` and emitted in the Variants arm of `generate_layer_content()`. Runtime branching in `resolveClasses.ts` distinguishes defaultVariant fallback from explicit props.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Replace specificity-based ordering between standalone and compose rules with structural layer ordering
+- Make the cascade contract minifier-proof (layer boundaries cannot be reordered)
+- Apply the same sublayer topology to `@layer compounds` for composed compound correctness
+- Retain the sidecar default class with a simplified role (layer ordering replaces specificity arithmetic)
+- Preserve `.variant().variant()` chain definition order for non-shared variants
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Transitive compose propagation (CSS-only compose is inherently single-hop — this is a known limitation of the CSS-only model, not a sublayer concern)
+- Composed compound + child override semantic mismatch (parent's class anchors the compound selector even when child overrides; fixing requires combinatorial `:not()` exclusions — out of scope, documented as known limitation)
+- Changes to the top-level layer declaration order (`global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom`)
+- Three sublayers for inheritance/override separation (the 0,2,0 vs 0,3,0 gap within `composed` is a structural invariant of the selector shapes — no layer separation needed)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Two sublayers — `standalone` and `composed`
+
+**Choice:** `@layer standalone, composed;` within both `@layer variants` and `@layer compounds`.
+
+**Why not three sublayers (standalone/inheritance/override)?** The inheritance selector `.Root--var-opt .Child` is structurally (0,2,0) and the override selector `.Root .Child.Child--var-opt` is structurally (0,3,0). This gap is inherent to the selector shapes — it can't be eroded by combinatorics or disrupted by minifiers (different specificities are never reordered). Adding a third sublayer would increase structural complexity without solving a real problem.
+
+**Why not "atomic" naming?** "Atomic" has existing connotations in the CSS world (Atomic CSS / utility-first). "Standalone" is self-descriptive — rules that apply to a component standing alone, outside any compose family.
+
+### Decision 2: Sidecar retained in `standalone` sublayer
+
+**Choice:** The `--{prop}-default` sidecar class is retained. It lives in `@layer standalone`.
+
+**Why not eliminate it?** The sidecar encodes a semantic distinction the cascade cannot infer: "this value comes from defaultVariant fallback" vs "this value was explicitly set." Without it, the override rule for the default option matches when the child gets the default variant class, causing the child's default to beat the parent's inheritance — the exact bug that motivated the sidecar. With sublayers, the sidecar's job is simpler: it just needs to exist in `standalone` so compose rules in `composed` beat it by layer ordering. No specificity tier engineering needed.
+
+### Decision 3: Composed compound inference from selectors
+
+**Choice:** For compound conditions that reference shared variant props, substitute the parent's inheritance selector pattern for the child's own variant class in the compound rule.
+
+**Example:** Compound `{ size: 'sm', intent: 'primary' }` on a child where `size` is shared becomes `.Root--size-sm .Child.Child--intent-primary` instead of `.Child--size-sm.Child--intent-primary`. The shared dimension uses the parent's state; non-shared dimensions use the child's own classes.
+
+**Why this works:** The extractor already knows which props are shared (from `ComposeFamilyInfo.shared_keys`). It can partition compound conditions into shared-prop dimensions (use inheritance selector) and local-prop dimensions (use child class).
+
+### Decision 4: Auto-provisioning — sublayers only when compose families exist
+
+**Choice:** The sublayer declaration and structure are emitted only when the project has at least one compose family. Projects without compose families get flat layers (no behavioral change).
+
+**Why:** Sublayers add no value without compose. Auto-provisioning keeps non-compose projects clean and avoids devtools noise. The extractor already tracks compose families via `ComposeFamilyInfo` — the provisioning decision is a simple presence check.
+
+**Migration note:** Un-layered rules within a layer have higher priority than sublayered rules (CSS spec). If a project transitions from no-compose to compose, previously un-layered variant rules move into `standalone`, which is a lower-priority position. This is correct — standalone rules SHOULD lose to compose rules. No migration action needed.
+
+### Decision 5: Structured sublayer emission replaces string surgery
+
+**Choice:** Replace the current string-surgery approach in `project_analyzer.rs` (truncate closing brace, append, re-close) with structured sublayer block emission.
+
+**Why:** String surgery is fragile and hard to reason about. With sublayers, the emitter produces two distinct content blocks (`standalone` content and `composed` content) and wraps them in their respective `@layer` blocks. The Variants arm of `generate_layer_content()` produces standalone content; `generate_composed_variant_css()` produces composed content. Assembly happens in `project_analyzer.rs` by combining the two blocks inside `@layer variants { @layer standalone, composed; @layer standalone { ... } @layer composed { ... } }`.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Layer nesting depth]** Adding sublayers increases the CSS layer tree from depth 1 to depth 2 at the `variants` and `compounds` branches. No browser has documented performance concerns at this depth. Measurable degradation only occurs at 20+ nested layers. **Mitigation:** Two sublayers per parent layer is the maximum this design introduces.
+
+**[Composed compound selector complexity]** Multi-shared-prop compound conditions produce long selectors (`.Root--size-sm.Root--intent-primary .Child.Child--density-comfortable`). **Mitigation:** This is no worse than standalone compound selectors with multiple conditions. Specificity increases naturally with more conditions, which is correct (more-constrained compounds should beat less-constrained ones).
+
+**[Composed compound + child override mismatch]** When a child overrides a shared prop, composed compounds conditioned on that prop still fire based on the parent's state. CSS and runtime disagree. **Mitigation:** Documented as known limitation of CSS-only compose. Fix requires combinatorial `:not()` exclusions — deferred unless demand materializes.
+
+**[Transitive compose single-hop]** CSS inheritance applies styles, not classes. A component that inherits a variant from a parent cannot propagate it to its own compose children via CSS. **Mitigation:** Pre-existing limitation. `context: true` mode handles transitive propagation correctly. Sublayers don't change this.

+## Why
+
+Compose variant CSS relies on specificity engineering within `@layer variants` to order three rule categories: sidecar defaults (0,1,0), inheritance (0,2,0), and overrides (0,3,0). This is fragile — the specificity tiers create source-order dependencies within a flat layer, CSS minifiers (LightningCSS/Vite) can legally reorder selectors at equal specificity, and multi-variant components interact unpredictably when all rules compete in the same cascade scope. Two fixes were attempted in one session before reaching a dead end.
+
+CSS `@layer` nesting (sublayers) was designed to solve exactly this class of problem — decoupling precedence from specificity by making ordering structural rather than arithmetic.
+
+## What Changes
+
+### Sublayers within `@layer variants` and `@layer compounds`
+
+Introduce `@layer standalone` and `@layer composed` as sublayers within both the `variants` and `compounds` layers. The sublayer topology is identical in both:
+
+```css
+@layer variants {
+  @layer standalone, composed;
+  @layer standalone {
+    .Child--size-sm { font-size: 0.875rem; }
+    .Child--size-default { font-size: 0.875rem; }  /* sidecar */
+  }
+  @layer composed {
+    .Root--size-sm .Child { font-size: 0.875rem; }          /* inheritance */
+    .Root .Child.Child--size-sm { font-size: 0.875rem; }    /* override */
+  }
+}
+
+@layer compounds {
+  @layer standalone, composed;
+  @layer standalone {
+    .Child--size-sm.Child--intent-primary { background: red; }
+  }
+  @layer composed {
+    /* shared 'size' condition uses parent inheritance selector */
+    .Root--size-sm .Child.Child--intent-primary { background: red; }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Layer ordering guarantees: `standalone` rules always lose to `composed` rules regardless of selector specificity. No specificity arithmetic needed between categories.
+
+### Sidecar default class retained with simplified role
+
+The `--{prop}-default` sidecar class is retained. It encodes a semantic distinction the cascade cannot infer: "this value comes from defaultVariant fallback" vs "this value was explicitly set by the consumer." The sidecar rule lives in `@layer standalone` — it naturally loses to any compose rule in `@layer composed` by layer ordering alone. No specificity tier engineering required.
+
+### Inheritance vs override within `composed`
+
+Within the `composed` sublayer, inheritance and override rules coexist. Their relative ordering is handled by a structural specificity invariant:
+
+- Inheritance: `.Root--var-opt .Child` — always (0,2,0)
+- Override: `.Root .Child.Child--var-opt` — always (0,3,0)
+
+This gap is inherent to the selector shapes, not engineered. It cannot be eroded by combinatorics or disrupted by minifiers (different specificities are never reordered). This is the one place specificity still matters, and it's stable.
+
+### Composed compound rules inferred from selectors
+
+For compound conditions that reference shared variant props, the extractor substitutes the parent's inheritance selector pattern for the child's own variant class. The shared prop condition becomes a descendant selector check against the parent's state rather than a class check on the child. Non-shared prop conditions remain as direct class checks on the child.
+
+### Non-shared variants unaffected
+
+Variants not in the compose `shared` config have no compose rules. They live entirely in `@layer standalone`, preserving `.variant().variant()` chain definition order as source order within the sublayer. No behavioral change.
+
+### Sublayers are auto-provisioned
+
+Users never specify or configure sublayers. The extractor provisions them automatically based on whether compose families exist in the project. Projects without compose families emit no sublayers — the `variants` and `compounds` layers remain flat.
+
+## Cascade Contract
+
+```
+@layer variants {
+  standalone < composed     (layer ordering, structural)
+}
+  within standalone:        source order = chain definition order
+  within composed:          inheritance (0,2,0) < override (0,3,0) (structural invariant)
+
+@layer compounds {
+  standalone < composed     (layer ordering, structural)
+}
+
+Cross-layer: variants < compounds < states < system < custom (unchanged)
+```
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `variant-sublayers`: Automatic sublayer provisioning within `@layer variants` and `@layer compounds` for compose cascade correctness.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `compose-css-propagation`: Compose rules move into `composed` sublayer. Sidecar default rules move into `standalone` sublayer. Selector shapes unchanged.
+- `structured-css-sheets`: CssSheets variants/compounds fields carry sublayer structure when compose families exist.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Rust crate** (`css_generator.rs`): Emit sublayered structure. Variant rules route to `standalone` or `composed` based on compose family membership. Compound rules with shared-prop conditions generate composed variants.
+- **Rust crate** (`project_analyzer.rs`): Compose CSS integration changes from string-surgery append to structured sublayer emission.
+- **Runtime** (`resolveClasses.ts`): Sidecar `--{prop}-default` class emission retained. No runtime changes needed.
+- **Browser support**: Nested `@layer` supported since Chrome 99, Firefox 97, Safari 15.4 (March 2022). 4+ years stable. All engines shipped sublayer support as part of initial `@layer` implementation — no version gap.
+- **Minifiers**: `@layer` boundaries are structural. LightningCSS, esbuild, cssnano all preserve nested layers. Minifier reordering across layer boundaries is impossible. This structurally eliminates the class of bug that motivated this change.
+- **DevTools**: Chrome 106+ shows layer badges with dot-separated paths (`variants.standalone`, `variants.composed`). Firefox 103+ shows `@layer variants.standalone` annotations. Net improvement over specificity arithmetic for debugging.
+- **Bundle size**: ~60 bytes of layer wrapper overhead per provisioned layer. Negligible, gzips to near-zero.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Two-rule composed variant emission
+For each shared variant option on each child slot in a composed family, the extraction pipeline SHALL emit two CSS rules within `@layer variants.composed`: an inheritance rule and an override rule.
+
+#### Scenario: Inheritance rule structure
+- **WHEN** a composed family has Root with variant `size` (options: `sm`, `md`) and Child is a slot with a `size` variant
+- **THEN** the pipeline SHALL emit an inheritance rule: `.{root-class}--size-sm .{child-class} { ...child's size-sm declarations... }` for each option
+
+#### Scenario: Override rule structure
+- **WHEN** a composed family has Root with variant `size` and Child has a `size` variant
+- **THEN** the pipeline SHALL emit an override rule: `.{root-class} .{child-class}.{child-class}--size-sm { ...child's size-sm declarations... }` for each option
+
+#### Scenario: Specificity contract within composed sublayer
+- **WHEN** both the inheritance rule and override rule are emitted for the same variant option
+- **THEN** the inheritance rule SHALL have specificity (0,2,0) and the override rule SHALL have specificity (0,3,0) — a structural invariant of the selector shapes
+
+#### Scenario: Override beats inheritance by specificity
+- **WHEN** both inheritance and override rules match within `@layer variants.composed`
+- **THEN** the override rule SHALL win by specificity regardless of source order
+
+### Requirement: Layer placement
+Composed variant rules SHALL be emitted within `@layer variants.composed` when sublayers are provisioned, or within `@layer variants` directly when no compose families exist.
+
+#### Scenario: Sublayered placement
+- **WHEN** composed variant rules are emitted and sublayers are provisioned
+- **THEN** they SHALL appear inside `@layer variants { @layer composed { ... } }`, separate from standalone variant rules in `@layer variants { @layer standalone { ... } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Flat placement without compose
+- **WHEN** no compose families exist in the project
+- **THEN** all variant rules SHALL appear inside `@layer variants { }` directly (unchanged behavior)
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Equal specificity contract
+**Reason**: Replaced by structural specificity invariant. Inheritance is now (0,2,0) and override is (0,3,0) — a structural gap inherent to the selector shapes, not engineered via doubled class names.
+**Migration**: No action needed. The new selectors produce the correct cascade ordering via their natural specificity.
+
+### Requirement: Source order determines override
+**Reason**: Source order between inheritance and override is no longer the cascade mechanism. Override beats inheritance by specificity (0,3,0 > 0,2,0), which is order-independent.
+**Migration**: No action needed. The specificity gap is structural.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Rust crate returns per-layer CSS sheets
+The `UniverseManifest` returned by `analyze_project` SHALL include a `sheets` field containing individual CSS strings for each layer: `declaration`, `base`, `variants`, `states`, `system`, and `custom`. When compose families exist, the `variants` and `compounds` sheet strings SHALL include sublayer wrappers (`@layer standalone { ... }` and `@layer composed { ... }`).
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest includes structured sheets
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project` is called with valid file entries
+- **THEN** the returned manifest JSON includes a `sheets` object with string fields: `declaration`, `base`, `variants`, `states`, `system`, `custom`
+
+#### Scenario: Sheets content matches concatenated CSS
+- **WHEN** all sheet strings are concatenated in order (declaration + base + variants + states + system + custom)
+- **THEN** the result is identical to the `css` field content
+
+#### Scenario: Variants sheet includes sublayer structure
+- **WHEN** compose families exist in the project
+- **THEN** `sheets.variants` SHALL contain `@layer standalone, composed;` followed by `@layer standalone { ... }` and `@layer composed { ... }` blocks inside the `@layer variants { }` wrapper
+
+#### Scenario: Variants sheet flat without compose
+- **WHEN** no compose families exist
+- **THEN** `sheets.variants` SHALL contain variant rules directly inside `@layer variants { }` with no sublayer structure
+
+#### Scenario: Empty layers produce empty strings
+- **WHEN** no components have variant styles
+- **THEN** `sheets.variants` is an empty string
+- **AND** `sheets.declaration` still includes `variants` in the layer ordering

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Sublayer declaration within variants layer
+When compose families exist in the project, the CSS generator SHALL emit `@layer standalone, composed;` as the first content inside `@layer variants { }`, establishing sublayer ordering.
+
+#### Scenario: Sublayer declaration emitted
+- **WHEN** the project contains at least one compose family
+- **THEN** the `@layer variants` block SHALL begin with `@layer standalone, composed;` before any rule blocks
+
+#### Scenario: No sublayers without compose
+- **WHEN** the project contains no compose families
+- **THEN** the `@layer variants` block SHALL contain variant rules directly (no sublayer declarations or wrappers)
+
+### Requirement: Sublayer declaration within compounds layer
+When compose families exist in the project and compound variants reference shared props, the CSS generator SHALL emit `@layer standalone, composed;` inside `@layer compounds { }`.
+
+#### Scenario: Compounds sublayer declaration emitted
+- **WHEN** the project contains compose families AND at least one compound condition references a shared variant prop
+- **THEN** the `@layer compounds` block SHALL begin with `@layer standalone, composed;` before any rule blocks
+
+#### Scenario: No compounds sublayers without composed compounds
+- **WHEN** no compound conditions reference shared variant props (even if compose families exist)
+- **THEN** the `@layer compounds` block SHALL contain compound rules directly (no sublayer declarations)
+
+### Requirement: Standalone variant rules in standalone sublayer
+All per-component variant rules (including sidecar default rules) SHALL be emitted inside `@layer standalone { }` when sublayers are provisioned.
+
+#### Scenario: Direct variant rule placement
+- **WHEN** sublayers are provisioned and component Child has variant `size` with option `sm`
+- **THEN** the rule `.animus-Child-{hash}--size-sm { ... }` SHALL appear inside `@layer variants { @layer standalone { ... } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Sidecar default rule placement
+- **WHEN** sublayers are provisioned and component Child has `defaultVariant: 'sm'` for variant `size`
+- **THEN** the sidecar rule `.animus-Child-{hash}--size-default { ... }` SHALL appear inside `@layer variants { @layer standalone { ... } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Chain definition order preserved
+- **WHEN** a component defines `.variant('size', {...}).variant('intent', {...})`
+- **THEN** within `@layer standalone`, all `size` variant rules SHALL appear before all `intent` variant rules
+
+### Requirement: Composed variant rules in composed sublayer
+All compose inheritance and override rules SHALL be emitted inside `@layer composed { }` when sublayers are provisioned.
+
+#### Scenario: Inheritance rule placement
+- **WHEN** sublayers are provisioned and Root composes Child with shared variant `size`
+- **THEN** the inheritance rule `.animus-Root-{hash}--size-sm .animus-Child-{hash} { ... }` SHALL appear inside `@layer variants { @layer composed { ... } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Override rule placement
+- **WHEN** sublayers are provisioned and Root composes Child with shared variant `size`
+- **THEN** the override rule `.animus-Root-{hash} .animus-Child-{hash}.animus-Child-{hash}--size-sm { ... }` SHALL appear inside `@layer variants { @layer composed { ... } }`
+
+### Requirement: Standalone compound rules in standalone sublayer
+Compound rules for non-composed usage SHALL be emitted inside `@layer compounds { @layer standalone { } }` when compounds sublayers are provisioned.
+
+#### Scenario: Standalone compound placement
+- **WHEN** compounds sublayers are provisioned and Child has compound `{ size: 'sm', intent: 'primary' }`
+- **THEN** the standalone compound rule `.animus-Child-{hash}--size-sm.animus-Child-{hash}--intent-primary { ... }` SHALL appear inside `@layer compounds { @layer standalone { ... } }`
+
+### Requirement: Composed compound rules in composed sublayer
+Compound rules where at least one condition references a shared variant prop SHALL emit composed variants inside `@layer compounds { @layer composed { } }`, substituting the parent's inheritance selector for the shared prop dimension.
+
+#### Scenario: Composed compound with one shared prop
+- **WHEN** compounds sublayers are provisioned and Child has compound `{ size: 'sm', intent: 'primary' }` where `size` is a shared prop with Root
+- **THEN** the composed compound rule SHALL be `.animus-Root-{hash}--size-sm .animus-Child-{hash}.animus-Child-{hash}--intent-primary { ... }` inside `@layer compounds { @layer composed { ... } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Composed compound with multiple shared props
+- **WHEN** Child has compound `{ size: 'sm', density: 'compact' }` where both `size` and `density` are shared with Root
+- **THEN** the composed compound rule SHALL be `.animus-Root-{hash}--size-sm.animus-Root-{hash}--density-compact .animus-Child-{hash} { ... }` inside `@layer compounds { @layer composed { ... } }`
+
+### Requirement: Cascade contract
+The sublayer structure SHALL enforce this cascade ordering without relying on specificity arithmetic between categories:
+
+- `variants.standalone` < `variants.composed` (layer ordering)
+- `compounds.standalone` < `compounds.composed` (layer ordering)
+- All `variants.*` < all `compounds.*` (top-level layer ordering, unchanged)
+
+#### Scenario: Composed beats standalone regardless of specificity
+- **WHEN** a `variants.standalone` rule has specificity (0,5,0) and a `variants.composed` rule has specificity (0,1,0) and both target the same element and property
+- **THEN** the `variants.composed` rule SHALL win
+
+#### Scenario: Inheritance vs override within composed
+- **WHEN** both inheritance (0,2,0) and override (0,3,0) rules match within `variants.composed`
+- **THEN** the override rule SHALL win by specificity (structural invariant of selector shapes)

+## Context
+
+The builder chain's `.extend()` method returns a new `AnimusWithBase` builder that inherits the parent's styles, variants, states, and system config. Extension chains are resolved by the Rust crate's `chain_merger.rs` — parent and child emit to the same `@layer`, source-ordered, so child styles predictably override parent styles. This is provenance-tracked extension, architecturally distinct from Stitches' `styled(Base)` (which re-wraps) or Vanilla Extract's composition arrays (which concatenate).
+
+The showcase's existing `Button` component (`components/docs/Button.tsx`) is a natural extension base — it has variants (`variant`, `size`) and is simple enough to extend meaningfully.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Add at least one `.extend()` usage to the showcase components
+- Show the base and extended components rendering side-by-side on the Examples page
+- Verify extraction handles extension chains in production (provenance tracking, @layer ordering)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Not designing new extension API or changing `.extend()` behavior
+- Not adding extension to composed families (composed output is sealed — this is by design)
+
+## Decisions
+
+**1. Extend Button into ButtonLink**
+
+`Button.extend().asElement('a')` is the most natural extension: same visual treatment, different element, type-narrowed to accept `href`. This matches the pattern already documented in `base-styling.md` and `builder-chain.md`.
+
+**2. Optional: extend into a specialized variant**
+
+A second extension that adds styles or overrides variants demonstrates that `.extend()` isn't just for element swapping. E.g., `Button.extend().styles({ textTransform: 'uppercase', letterSpacing: '0.1em' }).asElement('button')` for a display/CTA variant.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- [Risk] Extending `Button` creates a dependency — changing `Button` affects `ButtonLink`. → This is the point: extension chains create real architectural relationships, and the showcase should demonstrate that honestly.

+## Why
+
+`.extend()` is documented in 5 showcase markdown content files (builder-chain.md, composition.md, base-styling.md, variants-states.md, troubleshooting.md) but is never used in an actual showcase component. Every other builder chain feature has a live proof — variants, states, compound variants, system props, custom props, compose, selector aliases — except extension. This makes `.extend()` the only documented-but-undemonstrated feature in the showcase.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **New showcase component**: At least one component uses `.extend()` to create a variant of an existing base component. Natural candidate: a `ButtonLink` extending the existing `Button` via `Button.extend().asElement('a')`, or a specialized `Card` variant.
+- **Examples page section**: New "Extension Chains" section showing the base → extended component relationship with both rendering side-by-side.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `extend-showcase-demonstration`: Live showcase component using `.extend()` with side-by-side rendering of base and extended components on the Examples page.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+(none)
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Files**: `packages/showcase/src/components/docs/Button.tsx` or a new extension component file, `packages/showcase/src/pages/Examples.tsx` (new section)
+- **No API changes**: `.extend()` already exists and works. This is pure showcase/documentation.
+- **Extraction verification**: Confirms that the Rust pipeline correctly handles extension chains in production — provenance tracking, @layer source ordering, variant inheritance.

+## Context
+
+The showcase app renders 19 documentation pages from `.md` files loaded as raw strings via `import.meta.glob('./content/**/*.md', { query: '?raw' })`. The `MarkdownContent` component passes each string to `react-markdown` with `remarkGfm` and a component map that routes every HTML element to a ds-styled component (Heading, Prose, SyntaxBlock, InlineCode, etc.).
+
+This pipeline cannot embed live React components in doc pages. Interactive examples are confined to `Examples.tsx` — the only non-markdown page in the docs tree.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Replace the string-based markdown pipeline with compiled MDX modules
+- Preserve all existing component mappings and rendering behavior
+- Enable future inline component demos in doc pages (the capability, not the content)
+- Clean swap: after migration, all 19 pages render identically to current state
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Adding live component demos to doc pages (follow-on change)
+- Decomposing Examples.tsx (follow-on)
+- Creating new pages (style guide, pattern pages — follow-on)
+- Changing any prose content
+- Modifying the Animus extraction pipeline
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. MDX compilation via `@mdx-js/rollup`
+
+The Vite-compatible MDX compiler. Added as a Vite plugin in `vite.config.ts` alongside `react()` and `animusExtract()`.
+
+Configuration:
+```typescript
+import mdx from '@mdx-js/rollup';
+import remarkGfm from 'remark-gfm';
+
+plugins: [
+  mdx({ remarkPlugins: [remarkGfm] }),
+  react(),
+  animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' }),
+]
+```
+
+`mdx()` MUST be listed before `react()` — it compiles `.mdx` → JSX, then React's plugin handles the JSX. Order matters.
+
+**Why not `@mdx-js/esbuild`?** Vite uses Rollup in production and esbuild for dev transforms, but `@mdx-js/rollup` works in both modes via Vite's plugin compat layer. It's the documented approach.
+
+### 2. Component mapping via `@mdx-js/react` provider
+
+The existing `componentMap` in `MarkdownContent.tsx` transfers to an `MDXProvider`:
+
+```tsx
+import { MDXProvider } from '@mdx-js/react';
+
+// Same mapping table, different delivery
+<MDXProvider components={componentMap}>
+  <Outlet />
+</MDXProvider>
+```
+
+The provider wraps the docs layout so all MDX pages inherit the mapping. Individual MDX files can override or extend components via their own exports.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Passing components as props to each MDX module at render time. Rejected — provider is cleaner for a shared mapping across 19 pages.
+
+### 3. Content glob changes from `?raw` strings to module imports
+
+Current:
+```typescript
+const contentModules = import.meta.glob('./content/**/*.md', {
+  query: '?raw',
+  import: 'default',
+}) as Record<string, () => Promise<string>>;
+```
+
+After:
+```typescript
+const contentModules = import.meta.glob('./content/**/*.mdx', {
+  import: 'default',
+}) as Record<string, () => Promise<ComponentType>>;
+```
+
+Each MDX file is now a lazy-imported React component. The `DocPage` component renders it directly instead of passing a string to `<MarkdownContent>`.
+
+### 4. MarkdownContent becomes MDXProvider wrapper or is removed
+
+Two options:
+- **Option A:** Keep `MarkdownContent` as the provider wrapper (rename to `MDXWrapper` or similar) — it sets up the provider context and applies the content-area spacing styles.
+- **Option B:** Inline the provider into `DocsLayout` and delete `MarkdownContent`.
+
+Option A is cleaner — the spacing CSS and provider are co-located, `DocsLayout` stays layout-only.
+
+### 5. JSX-invalid syntax escaping in content files
+
+MDX interprets `{`, `}`, `<`, `>` as JSX. Prose that uses these literally (e.g., "the `<Button>` component" or "values like `{colors.primary}`) must be escaped or wrapped in backtick code spans (which are already the convention in most files).
+
+Audit each file for unescaped instances. Most will already be in code fences or inline code — the main risk is bare angle brackets in prose.
+
+### 6. Type declarations
+
+Replace:
+```typescript
+declare module '*.md?raw' {
+  const content: string;
+  export default content;
+}
+```
+
+With:
+```typescript
+declare module '*.mdx' {
+  import type { ComponentType } from 'react';
+  const MDXComponent: ComponentType;
+  export default MDXComponent;
+}
+```
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] MDX compile errors from existing content** → Audit all 19 files for JSX-invalid syntax before renaming. Fix in the same commit as the rename.
+
+**[Risk] Code fence rendering changes** → MDX handles code fences natively. Verify that the `code` component mapping still receives `className="language-xxx"` for language detection. Test with tsx, css, typescript, and sh code blocks.
+
+**[Risk] `animusExtract` plugin interaction** → Low risk. The extract plugin scans for `ds.styles()` chains in `.ts`/`.tsx` files. MDX files won't contain chain definitions (they import already-extracted components). If the plugin's file filter excludes `.mdx` by extension, no issue. If it inadvertently scans `.mdx`, the scanner finds no chains and moves on.
+
+**[Trade-off] Build time increase** → MDX compilation adds a transform step per file. For 19 small files this is negligible. Monitor if file count grows significantly.
+
+**[Trade-off] Authoring DX shift** → Authors must know JSX escaping rules. Mitigated by the fact that most special characters already appear in code fences or inline code spans.

+## Why
+
+The showcase docs are raw `.md` files rendered via `react-markdown` as strings. This means documentation pages cannot embed live React components — every interactive example must live on the separate `Examples.tsx` page, creating a structural split between "where you read about a pattern" and "where you see it work." MDX compiles markdown files as React components, letting code fences coexist with live `<Button>`, `<Card>`, and `<Tooltip>` instances in the same page. This is the infrastructure prerequisite for decomposing the monolithic Examples page and building inline pattern demos.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Replace `react-markdown` string rendering pipeline with `@mdx-js/rollup` compiled module pipeline
+- Add MDX Vite plugin to showcase build, alongside existing `animusExtract` (orthogonal — MDX imports components, doesn't define ds chains)
+- Create MDXProvider wrapper reusing the existing componentMap (Heading, Prose, SyntaxBlock, InlineCode, Strong, table components, etc.)
+- Bulk rename all 19 `.md` content files to `.mdx`, fixing any JSX-invalid syntax (unescaped `<`, `{`, `>` in prose)
+- Update `App.tsx` glob from `import.meta.glob('?raw')` string loading to module imports that yield React components
+- Update `DocsLayout` / doc page rendering to mount MDX components instead of passing strings to `<Markdown>`
+- Remove `react-markdown` dependency (replaced entirely)
+- Retain `remark-gfm` (used by `@mdx-js/rollup` for tables, strikethrough, task lists)

+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `mdx-authoring`: The ability to import and render live React components inline within documentation pages. Includes MDX compilation pipeline, provider configuration, and content file format.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `markdown-renderer`: Rendering engine changes from `react-markdown` (string → React) to MDX (compiled module → React). Same component mapping, different delivery mechanism. The `MarkdownContent` component either adapts to accept a component instead of a string, or is replaced by a provider-based approach.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Packages affected:** `packages/showcase` only — no system/extract/plugin changes
+- **Dependencies:** Add `@mdx-js/rollup`, `@mdx-js/react`. Remove `react-markdown`. Keep `remark-gfm`.
+- **Build pipeline:** New Vite plugin in showcase config. No interaction with `animusExtract`.
+- **Content files:** All 19 `.md` → `.mdx`. Prose content unchanged, syntax escaping only.
+- **Routing:** `DOCS_NAV` unchanged. Glob pattern and import mechanism change.
+- **Type declarations:** `*.md?raw` module declaration replaced with `*.mdx` module declaration.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Component Mapping
+
+The component mapping table SHALL be delivered via `MDXProvider` from `@mdx-js/react` instead of the `components` prop on `react-markdown`'s `<Markdown>` component. The mapping entries (element → Animus component) MUST remain identical.
+
+| Markdown Element | Animus Component |
+|-----------------|-----------------|
+| `h1`–`h4` | `Heading` (with level and auto-id) |
+| `p` | `Prose` |
+| `strong` | `Strong` |
+| `a` | Styled anchor |
+| `blockquote` | BlockquoteWrapper |
+| `ul` / `ol` | Styled list wrappers |
+| `li` | Styled list item |
+| `hr` | Divider |
+| `table` / `th` / `td` | TableContainer / Th / Td |
+| `code` (inline) | `InlineCode` |
+| `code` (block, inside `pre`) | `SyntaxBlock` with language detection |
+
+#### Scenario: All mapped elements render through ds components
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains each markdown element type
+- **THEN** every element renders through the same ds component as the previous react-markdown pipeline
+
+#### Scenario: Code block language detection preserved
+- **WHEN** a fenced code block specifies ` ```tsx `
+- **THEN** the `code` component receives a className or props that identify the language as `tsx`
+- **AND** `SyntaxBlock` renders with correct syntax highlighting
+
+### Requirement: Dependencies
+
+The showcase package SHALL depend on `@mdx-js/rollup`, `@mdx-js/react`, and `remark-gfm`. The `react-markdown` dependency SHALL be removed.
+
+#### Scenario: react-markdown removed
+- **WHEN** examining the showcase package.json
+- **THEN** `react-markdown` is not listed as a dependency
+
+#### Scenario: MDX dependencies present
+- **WHEN** examining the showcase package.json
+- **THEN** `@mdx-js/rollup`, `@mdx-js/react`, and `remark-gfm` are listed
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Raw string source rendering
+
+The `MarkdownContent` component previously accepted a `source: string` prop containing raw markdown text. This interface is removed.
+
+**Reason:** MDX files are compiled to React components at build time. There is no runtime markdown string to parse.
+
+**Migration:** Content is rendered by mounting the MDX component directly, not by passing a string to a renderer.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: MDX compilation pipeline
+
+The showcase build SHALL compile `.mdx` files via `@mdx-js/rollup` as a Vite plugin. The plugin MUST be ordered before `react()` in the Vite plugin array. The `remarkGfm` plugin MUST be configured for table, strikethrough, and task list support.
+
+#### Scenario: MDX file compiles to React component
+- **WHEN** a `.mdx` file exists under `src/content/`
+- **THEN** Vite compiles it to a React component exportable as default
+
+#### Scenario: Plugin ordering
+- **WHEN** the Vite config loads plugins
+- **THEN** `mdx()` appears before `react()` in the plugin array
+
+#### Scenario: GFM features work
+- **WHEN** a `.mdx` file contains a GFM table or strikethrough syntax
+- **THEN** the compiled output renders the table/strikethrough correctly
+
+### Requirement: MDX component provider
+
+The docs layout SHALL wrap rendered content in an `MDXProvider` that supplies the showcase component map. All standard markdown elements (headings, paragraphs, code blocks, links, lists, blockquotes, horizontal rules, tables, emphasis, strong) MUST render through the same ds-styled components as the current pipeline.
+
+#### Scenario: Heading renders via component map
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains `## Section Title`
+- **THEN** it renders as `<Heading level={2}>Section Title</Heading>` with auto-generated id
+
+#### Scenario: Code fence renders via SyntaxBlock
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains a fenced code block with language `tsx`
+- **THEN** it renders as `<SyntaxBlock language="tsx">` with syntax highlighting
+
+#### Scenario: Inline code renders via InlineCode
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains `` `someCode` `` inline
+- **THEN** it renders as `<InlineCode>`
+
+### Requirement: Content files are MDX format
+
+All documentation content files SHALL use the `.mdx` extension. No `.md` content files SHALL remain in `src/content/`. Each file MUST be valid MDX (JSX-safe syntax — no unescaped `<`, `>`, `{`, `}` outside of code fences or inline code spans).
+
+#### Scenario: All content files are .mdx
+- **WHEN** listing files in `src/content/`
+- **THEN** every file has a `.mdx` extension
+
+#### Scenario: No JSX parse errors
+- **WHEN** the showcase builds
+- **THEN** no MDX file produces a JSX syntax error from unescaped characters
+
+### Requirement: Content glob loads modules not strings
+
+The content discovery glob SHALL import `.mdx` files as React component modules (not raw strings). Each module's default export MUST be a renderable React component.
+
+#### Scenario: Glob returns component modules
+- **WHEN** `import.meta.glob('./content/**/*.mdx')` resolves
+- **THEN** each entry's default export is a React component (callable as JSX)
+
+#### Scenario: Lazy loading preserved
+- **WHEN** a doc page route is navigated to
+- **THEN** only that page's MDX module is loaded (code-split per route)
+
+### Requirement: Live component embedding
+
+MDX content files SHALL support importing and rendering React components inline alongside markdown prose. Components imported in an MDX file MUST render as live, interactive instances.
+
+#### Scenario: Imported component renders live
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains `import { Button } from '../../components/docs/Button'` and `<Button color="primary" kind="fill" size="md">Click</Button>`
+- **THEN** the page renders a live, interactive Button instance inline with the surrounding prose
+
+#### Scenario: Component uses extracted styles
+- **WHEN** a live component is rendered in an MDX page
+- **THEN** its styles come from the extracted CSS (virtual:animus/styles.css), not runtime injection
+
+### Requirement: Type declarations for MDX modules
+
+The project MUST include a type declaration for `.mdx` file imports so that TypeScript resolves default imports as `ComponentType`.
+
+#### Scenario: TypeScript accepts MDX import
+- **WHEN** a `.tsx` file imports from a `.mdx` file
+- **THEN** TypeScript resolves the default export as `ComponentType` without error

+## Context
+
+The showcase app has a working MDX pipeline (shipped session 53) and 33 existing ds components. The mock registry (`tmp/doc-atoms.jsx`, `tmp/doc-components.jsx`) contains 39 prototype components in raw inline styles. This design covers migrating 12 high-value components into proper Animus ds components, organized in dependency order across 4 groups.
+
+Current showcase component layout:
+```
+components/
+  docs/       — Button, CodeExample, ColorModeToggle, ColorPalette,
+                DocsBreadcrumb, Heading, MDXProvider, PageNav, PageToc, Sidebar
+  surfaces/   — Card, RevealBlock, SyntaxBlock, Table, Tooltip
+  typography/  — Display, InlineCode, Label, Logo, Mono, Prose, Strong
+  layout/     — CascadeLayer, Drawer, NavBar, Responsive, Row, Scene, SkipLink, Stack
+  decorative/ — FireLine, HorizontalMark, ReadingBarTrack
+```
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Implement 12 doc-grade components as Animus ds components with full extraction support
+- Enhance 2 existing components (SyntaxBlock, Heading) with professional chrome
+- Expand MDXProvider componentMap with Callout for automatic .mdx availability
+- Exercise variant, states, system prop, and composition patterns as dogfood
+- Maintain dependency ordering: atoms first, then compositions that use them
+- All colors through token references — zero hardcoded hex/rgba values
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Full port of all 39 mock components (27 are out of scope — see proposal)
+- Search/command palette implementation (needs index infrastructure)
+- Icon system design (follow-up spike)
+- Headless UI library integration (follow-up exploration)
+- Content authoring or doc rewriting — this is component infrastructure only
+- Responsive/mobile layout changes
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. File organization: `docs/` subdirectory for all new components
+
+New components go in `components/docs/` alongside existing docs components (Heading, CodeExample, etc.). Rationale: these are documentation-specific primitives, not general-purpose surfaces or typography.
+
+Exception: enhanced SyntaxBlock stays in `surfaces/` where it already lives.
+
+### 2. CopyButton as shared atom, not inlined
+
+The copy-to-clipboard pattern appears in SyntaxBlock (code copy), Heading (anchor copy), and potentially TypeSignature. Extract it as a standalone atom rather than duplicating the clipboard + animated feedback logic.
+
+Implementation: `useState` for copied state, `setTimeout(1500ms)` for reset, SVG icon swap between copy/check icons. The icon swap is inherently stateful — do not attempt to model with `.states()`.
+
+### 3. TokenBadge: all colors via token opacity syntax — ZERO hardcoded values
+
+~~The mock defines 7 variants with rgba() backgrounds. Our token system has no alpha-channel color tokens.~~
+
+**CORRECTED:** The Animus token system supports **color opacity syntax**: `'{colors.primary/12}'` produces the color at 12% opacity. This eliminates the need for raw rgba() entirely. Every TokenBadge variant uses token references with opacity for backgrounds, and direct token references for border/text:
+
+```
+variant: 'method'  → bg: '{colors.primary/12}',    borderColor: '{colors.fire.700}',   color: 'primary'
+variant: 'layer'   → bg: '{colors.forest.500/12}',  borderColor: '{colors.forest.700}', color: '{colors.forest.500}'
+variant: 'type'    → bg: '{colors.violet.400/12}',  borderColor: '{colors.violet.700}', color: '{colors.violet.400}'
+variant: 'prop'    → bg: '{colors.gold.300/12}',    borderColor: '{colors.gold.700}',   color: '{colors.gold.300}'
+variant: 'tag'     → bg: '{colors.ocean.500/12}',   borderColor: '{colors.ocean.700}',  color: '{colors.ocean.500}'
+variant: 'danger'  → bg: '{colors.primary/8}',      borderColor: '{colors.fire.700}',   color: 'primary'
+variant: 'success' → bg: '{colors.forest.500/8}',   borderColor: '{colors.forest.700}', color: '{colors.forest.500}'
+```
+
+**Design choice on palette vs semantic tokens:** Border and text use raw palette paths (`fire.700`, `forest.500`, etc.) rather than semantic tokens (`primary`, `status.success`) because these badges need **stable identity across color modes**. A "layer" badge should always read green regardless of whether the page is in ocean mode or violet mode. Raw palette provides that stability. Semantic tokens would shift with the mode — `status.success` is `gold.300` in dark mode but `fire.700` in light mode, which would make badge colors unpredictable.
+
+The bg alpha values (12% and 8%) create subtle tints that work on any background because they're transparent overlays.
+
+### 4. SyntaxBlock: wrap, don't replace
+
+Enhance the existing `SyntaxBlock` by adding optional wrapper chrome AROUND the existing `<Highlight>` + `<SyntaxPre>` internals. The prism-react-renderer engine stays untouched.
+
+New props: `title?: string`, `copyable?: boolean` (default true), `collapsible?: boolean`, `showLineNumbers?: boolean`
+
+The title bar, copy button, and collapse toggle are added as sibling elements above the existing pre block, wrapped in a new container. Line numbers are injected into the existing line rendering loop.
+
+**Pattern choice:** The outer container uses `ds.styles()` for structure. The collapsible state should use React `useState` (not `.states()`) because it controls content visibility via conditional rendering, not CSS class toggling. The chevron rotation CAN use a CSS transition on a data-attribute though.
+
+### 5. Callout: MDXProvider integration via direct component
+
+Register Callout in the MDXProvider componentMap. Two integration paths considered:
+
+**Option A — Custom element**: `<Callout variant="tip">content</Callout>` — explicit import in .mdx files. Clear, no magic, works now.
+
+**Option B — Blockquote directive**: `> [!TIP] content` (GitHub-flavored) — parsed from blockquote children. More markdown-native but requires parsing logic.
+
+**Decision: Option A for now.** Direct component import in MDX is the standard pattern. Callout is also added to the componentMap as `Callout` for convenience, but primary usage is explicit import. Option B can be added later via a remark plugin if desired.
+
+**Pattern choice:** `.variant()` for the 4 semantic variants. Each variant sets `borderLeftColor`, `bg` (token opacity syntax for tinted backgrounds: `'{colors.ocean.500/6}'` for info), and a color for the icon/title. Icon characters are static text content in a `_before` pseudo-element — this keeps the icon out of the component API and lets the variant control it through selector aliases.
+
+### 6. LivePreview: accept content duplication
+
+In MDX, LivePreview renders a live component and shows its source code. Authors write the component twice — once as live JSX and once as a code string. This is the standard pattern in Storybook, Docusaurus, and every MDX-based doc site.
+
+Alternative considered: auto-extracting source from the rendered JSX via a remark/rehype plugin. Rejected — this is a deep rabbit hole (AST manipulation, import resolution, formatting) for marginal DX improvement. The duplication is explicit and maintainable.
+
+```mdx
+<LivePreview
+  preview={<Button color="primary" kind="fill" size="md">Click me</Button>}
+  code={`<Button color="primary" kind="fill" size="md">Click me</Button>`}
+/>
+```
+
+### 7. ParamTable composes existing Table primitives
+
+ParamTable is not a new table implementation. It renders `<TableContainer>`, `<Th>`, `<Td>` from `surfaces/Table.tsx` with API-specific column structure (Parameter | Type | Default | Description). TokenBadge used in the Type column.
+
+### 8. Inline SVG icons — hardcoded for now, spike later
+
+The mock uses ~15 inline SVGs (anchor link, copy, check, chevron, collapse). For this change, inline SVGs are acceptable — they're small, static, and few. A follow-up spike should evaluate:
+- **lucide-react**: tree-shakeable, 1400+ icons, popular, zero config
+- **createIcon utility**: Chakra-style factory that wraps SVG paths into ds-compatible components. Interesting as a system-level feature (exercises ds as component factory), but over-engineered for 15 icons.
+- **ark-ui integration**: headless primitives (Dialog, Accordion, Tabs) that Animus styles via `.asComponent()`. Great extraction dogfood test but needs compatibility verification.
+
+### 9. MethodCard: `.states()` for expand/collapse — not useState
+
+**Revised from original plan.** MethodCard's expanded/collapsed state maps cleanly to `.states({ expanded: { ... } })`. The `_expanded` selector alias generates `&[aria-expanded="true"], &[data-expanded]` — this is the accessibility-correct pattern for disclosure widgets. The detail section visibility and chevron rotation are both CSS-driven via the expanded state data-attribute.
+
+The component still needs a `useState` for the toggle, but the STYLING is `.states()`, and the attribute is `data-expanded` / `aria-expanded`. This exercises `.states()` as a real dogfood test rather than treating every interactive component as a React-state-with-inline-styles problem.
+
+---
+
+## API Feature → Problem Mapping
+
+A reference for choosing the right Animus feature for each styling problem. This codifies local conventions for these doc components.
+
+### When to use each feature
+
+| Problem | Feature | Why |
+|---------|---------|-----|
+| Base appearance (always-on CSS) | `.styles()` | @layer base. One-time structural CSS. |
+| Named visual variants (type, size, color) | `.variant()` | @layer variants. Type-safe prop → CSS mapping. |
+| Multi-variant conditionals | `.compound()` | @layer compounds. When size=lg AND kind=fill needs extra padding. |
+| Boolean interactive states (expanded, active, open) | `.states()` | @layer states. Data-attribute driven. Use for MethodCard expand, SyntaxBlock collapse. |
+| Spacing/color/typography escape hatches | `.system({ space: true })` | @layer system. Consumer-facing shorthand props. Use sparingly on doc components — most don't need runtime prop flexibility. |
+| Custom behavior props (sizing, depth) | `.props()` | Custom layer. Transform functions. Not needed for these doc components. |
+| Pseudo-states in base styles | `_hover`, `_focusVisible`, `_disabled` etc. | Selector aliases inside `.styles()`. Preferred over `'&:hover'` — typed, ordered, extraction-aware. |
+| Pseudo-elements | `_before`, `_after` | Selector aliases. Use for Callout icon, AnchorIcon dot, decorative elements. Auto-sets `content: ""`. |
+| Color with alpha | `'{colors.primary/12}'` | Opacity syntax on any color path. Use for tinted backgrounds. |
+| Color mode stability | Raw palette: `'{colors.forest.500}'` | Stable across modes. Use when color identity matters more than mode adaptation. |
+| Color mode adaptation | Semantic tokens: `'primary'`, `'text.muted'` | Changes per mode. Use for text, borders, backgrounds that should follow the theme. |
+| Responsive layout | `{ _: value, sm: value }` | Breakpoint maps. Use if any doc component needs mobile adaptation. |
+| Polymorphic rendering | `asChild` | Delegate rendering to child element. Use if we need a styled wrapper that renders as its child. |
+| Slot families | `compose()` | Multi-component families with shared variants. NOT for these doc components — they're all single-component or simple parent/child. |
+| Extension/specialization | `.extend()` | Inherit full chain, change terminal or add styles. Could use if we build a base DocCard and specialize for MethodCard/ParamTable. |
+| Emitted sizes | `'{sizes.navHeight}'` | Token refs to emitted size values. Use for position offsets. |
+
+### Color strategy for doc components
+
+**Semantic tokens** for: text content, borders, backgrounds, interactive states — anything that should adapt to color mode.
+```
+color: 'text.muted'       ← adapts per mode
+bg: 'surface'             ← adapts per mode  
+borderColor: 'border'     ← adapts per mode
+_hover: { bg: 'surface.hover' }
+```
+
+**Raw palette + opacity** for: badge identity colors, accent tints, category markers — anything that should maintain stable meaning across modes.
+```
+bg: '{colors.forest.500/12}'     ← green tint, always green
+color: '{colors.violet.400}'     ← purple text, always purple
+borderColor: '{colors.ocean.700}' ← blue border, always blue
+```
+
+**Semantic accent/status** for: success/warning/error states in callouts — these SHOULD adapt because their meaning is mode-contextual.
+```
+borderLeftColor: 'status.success'  ← green in dark, adapts in other modes
+borderLeftColor: 'status.warning'  ← amber, adapts
+borderLeftColor: 'status.error'    ← red, adapts
+```
+
+Wait — actually `status.warning` is `fire.400` in dark mode, which is the same red family as the accent. And `status.success` is `gold.300` in dark mode, which is... gold, not green. These semantic tokens don't map to the intuitive info/tip/warn/danger colors.
+
+**Revised Callout color strategy:** Use raw palette paths for variant identity (same reasoning as TokenBadge):
+```
+info:   borderLeftColor: '{colors.ocean.500}',   bg: '{colors.ocean.500/6}'
+tip:    borderLeftColor: '{colors.forest.500}',   bg: '{colors.forest.500/6}'
+warn:   borderLeftColor: '{colors.gold.300}',     bg: '{colors.gold.300/6}'
+danger: borderLeftColor: '{colors.fire.500}',     bg: '{colors.fire.500/6}'
+```
+
+---
+
+## Per-Component Implementation Process
+
+Every component follows this 5-step cycle. This prevents hallucination drift and ensures cleanup.
+
+### Step 1: IDENTIFY
+
+Before writing any code, answer:
+- What cascade layers does this component need? (styles? variants? states? system?)
+- What props does the consumer see?
+- What interactive behavior exists? (hover, click, toggle, animation)
+- What other components does it depend on or compose?
+
+### Step 2: MAP mock → Animus features
+
+For each styling concern in the mock, choose the Animus feature:
+- Inline style object → `.styles()` with token refs
+- Color variants → `.variant()` with palette opacity syntax
+- Hover/focus/disabled → selector aliases (`_hover`, `_focusVisible`, `_disabled`)
+- Expand/collapse → `.states({ expanded: {...} })` + data-attribute
+- Spacing escape hatch → `.system({ space: true })` only if consumer needs it
+- Pseudo-element content → `_before`/`_after` with auto `content: ""`
+- Static text/number values → use token scale values (`fontSize: 12` → `fontSize: 12` from fontSizes scale, `gap: 8` → `gap: 8` from space scale)
+
+**Rule: if the mock uses a hardcoded color value, find the closest token path. If no semantic token matches, use raw palette + opacity. Never write a hex/rgba literal.**
+
+### Step 3: BUILD the chain
+
+Write the builder chain in cascade order. Checklist:
+- [ ] `.styles()` — base structural CSS, selector aliases for pseudo-states
+- [ ] `.variant()` — each named prop axis, with `defaultVariant` where sensible
+- [ ] `.compound()` — only if multi-variant conditionals exist (rare)
+- [ ] `.states()` — boolean toggle states (expanded, collapsed, active, copied)
+- [ ] `.system()` — only props the consumer actually needs on instances
+- [ ] `.asElement()` — correct HTML element (semantic: `button`, `nav`, `span`, not always `div`)
+
+### Step 4: VERIFY
+
+- Does it extract? (`bun run build` from showcase)
+- Does the className appear in the CSS output with `animus-` prefix?
+- Do variants produce distinct rules in `@layer variants`?
+- Does it render correctly in the dev server?
+- Do color tokens resolve to visible CSS variables?
+
+### Step 5: CLEANUP
+
+After each component is verified:
+- Remove any dead imports or unused mock references
+- Update `components/index.ts` barrel export
+- If this component replaces or enhances an existing one, remove the old code
+- If Examples.tsx had an ad-hoc version of this pattern (e.g., TabBar), note it for future decomposition (but don't refactor Examples.tsx in this change)
+
+---
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[SyntaxBlock complexity creep]** → Adding 4 optional features (title, copy, collapse, line numbers) to an existing component risks bloat. Mitigation: all features are opt-in props with sensible defaults (no title, copyable, not collapsible, no line numbers). The wrapper chrome is structurally separate from the highlighting core.
+
+**[LivePreview content duplication]** → Authors write code twice. Mitigation: this is industry standard. The code string is typically shorter than the live JSX (no prop spreading, simplified). If it becomes painful, a remark plugin can be added later.
+
+**[Mock → Animus translation fidelity]** → The mock uses specific spacing, font sizes, and color values tuned to its hardcoded theme. Direct pixel-matching is not the goal — the components should look RIGHT in our theme, not identical to the mock. Use token values (spacing scale, font scale) where they exist.
+
+**[Raw palette color stability]** → TokenBadge and Callout use raw palette paths (forest.500, violet.400, etc.) for stable identity across color modes. These colors won't shift when the user changes modes — this is intentional (a "type" badge should always read purple). But it means they may not harmonize perfectly with every mode's overall palette. Acceptable trade-off for doc components.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+1. **Icon system direction** — lucide-react vs createIcon vs raw SVGs. Needs a spike to evaluate extraction compatibility and DX. Not blocking this change.
+2. **ark-ui integration** — Does `.asComponent(ArkDialog)` extract correctly? Unknown. Worth a focused spike. Not blocking.
+3. **Callout blockquote syntax** — Should we eventually support `> [!TIP]` GitHub-style admonitions via a remark plugin? Deferred — explicit `<Callout>` import works now.

+## Why
+
+The showcase docs site renders content through MDX but lacks the component vocabulary that professional documentation requires. API reference pages need type signatures, parameter tables, and expandable method cards. All docs pages need admonition callouts, copy-to-clipboard, and live preview panels. The mock registry (`tmp/doc-atoms.jsx`, `tmp/doc-components.jsx`) prototypes ~39 components in raw inline styles — the high-value subset needs to be implemented as proper Animus ds components that exercise variants, states, system props, and MDX integration.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **New atoms**: CopyButton (clipboard with animated feedback), TokenBadge (7-variant semantic badge), Callout (4-variant admonition — registered in MDXProvider componentMap)
+- **Enhanced existing**: SyntaxBlock gains title bar, copy button, collapsible mode, line numbers (keeps prism-react-renderer). Heading gains hover anchor icon + click-to-copy `#id`
+- **New reference components**: TypeSignature (color-coded function types), ParamTable (wraps existing Table primitives + TokenBadge), MethodCard (expandable API reference accordion)
+- **New interactive components**: TabGroup (generic, extracted from Examples.tsx pattern), LivePreview (preview/code toggle — the key MDX enabler), ChainStep (interactive builder-chain visualization)
+- **MDXProvider expansion**: Callout added to componentMap. LivePreview, TokenBadge, TypeSignature, ParamTable available as explicit imports in .mdx files.
+- **Barrel export expansion**: All new components exported from `components/index.ts`
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `doc-atoms`: Foundational documentation atoms — CopyButton, TokenBadge. Small, reusable, no internal dependencies.
+- `doc-callout`: Admonition/callout component with variant system. MDXProvider-integrated for automatic availability in .mdx content.
+- `doc-reference`: API reference components — TypeSignature, ParamTable, MethodCard. Composed from atoms and existing table primitives.
+- `doc-interactive`: Interactive documentation components — TabGroup, LivePreview, ChainStep. Enable live demos and visualizations in MDX pages.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `markdown-renderer`: MDXProvider componentMap expanded with Callout mapping. SyntaxBlock enhanced with chrome features (title, copy, collapse, line numbers).
+- `mdx-authoring`: New components available for import in .mdx files (LivePreview, TokenBadge, etc.). No pipeline changes.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Files created**: ~8-10 new component files in `packages/showcase/src/components/docs/` and `components/surfaces/`
+- **Files modified**: `MDXProvider.tsx` (Callout in componentMap), `SyntaxBlock.tsx` (wrapper chrome), `Heading.tsx` (anchor interactivity), `components/index.ts` (barrel exports)
+- **Dependencies**: None new for core work. Follow-up spike: lucide-react or createIcon for icon system, ark-ui for headless primitives (Dialog, Accordion, Tabs)
+- **Extraction**: All new components use `ds.styles()` / `.variant()` / `.states()` — standard extraction path. No new extraction concerns.
+- **Risk**: TokenBadge rgba() background colors have no token equivalents — will use raw CSS strings. Mock's manual syntax tokenizer must NOT be ported (keep prism-react-renderer).

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: CopyButton component
+
+A reusable clipboard copy button atom. The component SHALL accept a `text` prop (string to copy) and a `size` prop (`'sm' | 'md'`). It SHALL use `navigator.clipboard.writeText()` to copy text, display a check icon for 1500ms after successful copy, then revert to the copy icon. The icon swap SHALL be managed via React state, not CSS `.states()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Copy to clipboard
+- **WHEN** user clicks CopyButton with text="hello"
+- **THEN** "hello" is written to the clipboard and the icon changes to a check mark
+
+#### Scenario: Feedback resets after delay
+- **WHEN** user clicks CopyButton
+- **THEN** the check icon reverts to the copy icon after 1500ms
+
+#### Scenario: Size variants
+- **WHEN** CopyButton renders with size="sm"
+- **THEN** it renders at a compact size suitable for inline use (code block headers)
+- **WHEN** CopyButton renders with size="md"
+- **THEN** it renders at a standard size with "Copy"/"Copied" text label
+
+### Requirement: TokenBadge component
+
+A semantic colored inline badge with 7 variants. The component SHALL accept a `variant` prop with values: `'method' | 'layer' | 'type' | 'prop' | 'tag' | 'danger' | 'success'`. Each variant SHALL define a distinct `{background, borderColor, color}` triplet using the token opacity syntax (`'{colors.palette.weight/opacity}'`). Background colors SHALL use raw palette paths with 12% or 8% opacity for tinted backgrounds. Border and text colors SHALL use raw palette paths for stable identity across color modes. No hardcoded hex or rgba values.
+
+#### Scenario: Variant styling via token opacity
+- **WHEN** TokenBadge renders with variant="method"
+- **THEN** it displays with bg `'{colors.primary/12}'`, border from `'{colors.fire.700}'`, and color `'primary'`
+
+#### Scenario: All 7 variants render distinctly using raw palette for identity stability
+- **WHEN** each of the 7 variants renders side by side
+- **THEN** each has a visually distinct color scheme via raw palette paths: method=fire(red), layer=forest(green), type=violet(purple), prop=gold(amber), tag=ocean(blue), danger=fire(muted red), success=forest(muted green)
+
+#### Scenario: Color mode independence
+- **WHEN** the color mode changes (e.g., dark → ocean → violet)
+- **THEN** TokenBadge variant colors remain stable (raw palette refs don't shift with mode)
+
+#### Scenario: Inline usage
+- **WHEN** TokenBadge is placed inline within prose text
+- **THEN** it renders as an inline-flex element with monospace font, appropriate padding, and does not break text flow
+
+### Requirement: Animus extraction compatibility
+
+All doc-atom components SHALL be built with `ds.styles()`, `.variant()`, and `.states()` from the showcase design system instance. They SHALL extract to static CSS via the standard extraction pipeline.
+
+#### Scenario: CopyButton extracts
+- **WHEN** the showcase builds
+- **THEN** CopyButton's styled elements produce extracted CSS classes with `animus-` prefix
+
+#### Scenario: TokenBadge variants extract
+- **WHEN** the showcase builds
+- **THEN** each TokenBadge variant produces distinct CSS rules in `@layer variants`
+
+### Requirement: Barrel export
+
+All new doc-atom components SHALL be exported from `components/index.ts`.
+
+#### Scenario: Named exports available
+- **WHEN** a consumer imports `{ CopyButton, TokenBadge }` from the components barrel
+- **THEN** both components are available

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Callout component
+
+An admonition/callout component with 4 semantic variants. The component SHALL accept `variant` (`'info' | 'tip' | 'warn' | 'danger'`, default `'info'`), `title` (optional string), and `children` (ReactNode). Each variant SHALL have a distinct left border color, tinted background, and icon character.
+
+#### Scenario: Variant rendering
+- **WHEN** Callout renders with variant="tip" and title="Best Practice"
+- **THEN** it displays with a green/teal left border, tinted background, arrow icon, "Best Practice" title, and children content
+
+#### Scenario: Without title
+- **WHEN** Callout renders with variant="warn" and no title prop
+- **THEN** it displays with amber left border and icon, but no title text — children render directly after the icon
+
+#### Scenario: All 4 variants are visually distinct
+- **WHEN** info, tip, warn, and danger Callouts render
+- **THEN** each has a distinct color scheme: info=blue, tip=teal/green, warn=amber, danger=red/accent
+
+### Requirement: MDXProvider integration
+
+Callout SHALL be available in .mdx files via explicit import. It SHALL also be registered in the MDXProvider componentMap as `Callout` (capital C) for convenience.
+
+#### Scenario: Explicit import in MDX
+- **WHEN** an .mdx file contains `import { Callout } from '../components'` and uses `<Callout variant="tip">content</Callout>`
+- **THEN** the Callout renders correctly with the tip variant styling
+
+#### Scenario: ComponentMap availability
+- **WHEN** the MDXProvider componentMap includes Callout
+- **THEN** .mdx files MAY use `<Callout>` without explicit import
+
+### Requirement: Extraction compatibility
+
+Callout SHALL be built with `ds.styles()` and `.variant()`. All variant styles SHALL extract to static CSS.
+
+#### Scenario: Callout extracts
+- **WHEN** the showcase builds
+- **THEN** Callout produces extracted CSS with variant rules in `@layer variants`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: TabGroup component
+
+A generic tab bar component. The component SHALL accept `tabs` (string array), `activeTab` (string), and `onChange` (callback). It SHALL render a horizontal row of tab buttons with an active indicator (bottom border accent color). It SHALL be a controlled component — the parent manages active state.
+
+#### Scenario: Active tab rendering
+- **WHEN** TabGroup renders with tabs=["preview","code"] and activeTab="preview"
+- **THEN** the "preview" tab has accent bottom border and full-color text; "code" tab has transparent border and dim text
+
+#### Scenario: Tab click
+- **WHEN** user clicks the "code" tab
+- **THEN** onChange is called with "code"
+
+#### Scenario: Styling
+- **WHEN** TabGroup renders
+- **THEN** tabs use monospace font, have a shared bottom border line, and the active indicator transitions smoothly
+
+### Requirement: LivePreview component
+
+A preview/code toggle panel for MDX documentation. The component SHALL accept `preview` (ReactNode — live rendered component), `code` (ReactNode — typically a SyntaxBlock), and optionally `defaultTab` (`'preview' | 'code'`, default `'preview'`). It SHALL render a bordered container with TabGroup toggling between the preview and code views.
+
+#### Scenario: Default preview view
+- **WHEN** LivePreview renders with preview and code props
+- **THEN** the preview tab is active and the rendered component is visible in a padded container
+
+#### Scenario: Switch to code view
+- **WHEN** user clicks the "code" tab

+
+#### Scenario: MDX usage
+- **WHEN** an .mdx file uses `<LivePreview preview={<Button>Click</Button>} code={<SyntaxBlock>...</SyntaxBlock>} />`
+- **THEN** both the live component and its source code are viewable via tab toggle
+
+### Requirement: ChainStep component
+
+An interactive builder chain visualization component. The component SHALL accept `steps` (array of `{label: string, layer: string}`), `activeStep` (number index), and `onStepClick` (callback with index). It SHALL render each step as a clickable button showing the method name and its corresponding @layer, with SVG arrow connectors between steps.
+
+#### Scenario: Step rendering
+- **WHEN** ChainStep renders with 6 steps (styles→variants→compounds→states→system→custom)
+- **THEN** it displays 6 clickable buttons with arrow connectors between them
+
+#### Scenario: Active step highlighting
+- **WHEN** step index 2 is active
+- **THEN** the ".compound()" button has accent background/border; all others have default styling
+
+#### Scenario: Step click
+- **WHEN** user clicks the ".variant()" step

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: TypeSignature component
+
+A function type signature display component. The component SHALL accept `name` (string), `generics` (optional string), `params` (array of `{name: string, type: string}`), and `returns` (string). It SHALL render in monospace font with color-coded parts: name in accent, generics in purple/secondary, param names in blue, param types in purple/secondary, return type in green/success.
+
+#### Scenario: Full signature rendering
+- **WHEN** TypeSignature renders with name=".compound", generics="V extends VariantMap", params=[{name:"condition", type:"keyof V"}], returns="CompoundBuilder<V>"
+- **THEN** it displays as `.compound<V extends VariantMap>(condition: keyof V) → CompoundBuilder<V>` with each part color-coded
+

+- **THEN** the generic angle brackets are omitted
+
+#### Scenario: Visual treatment
+- **WHEN** TypeSignature renders
+- **THEN** it has a left accent border (3px), surface background, rounded right corners, and monospace font
+
+### Requirement: ParamTable component
+
+An API parameter table component. The component SHALL accept `params` as an array of `{name: string, type: string, default: string, desc: string}`. It SHALL render using the existing Table/Th/Td components from `surfaces/Table.tsx` — it SHALL NOT implement its own table styling. The type column SHALL render each type value inside a TokenBadge with variant="type". The default column SHALL highlight "required" values in accent color.
+
+#### Scenario: Table rendering
+- **WHEN** ParamTable renders with 3 parameters
+- **THEN** it displays a 4-column table (Parameter | Type | Default | Description) with 3 data rows
+
+#### Scenario: Type column uses TokenBadge
+- **WHEN** ParamTable renders a param with type="string | string[]"
+- **THEN** the type cell contains `<TokenBadge variant="type">string | string[]</TokenBadge>`
+
+#### Scenario: Required highlighting
+- **WHEN** a param has default="required"
+- **THEN** the default cell renders "required" in accent/primary color
+
+### Requirement: MethodCard component
+
+An expandable API method reference card. The component SHALL accept `name` (string), `description` (string), `returnType` (string), `available` (optional string — which method must precede this one), `example` (ReactNode), and `expanded` is managed internally via useState. Clicking the header SHALL toggle expanded state.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: MDX component provider
+
+The docs layout SHALL wrap rendered content in an `MDXProvider` that supplies the showcase component map. All standard markdown elements (headings, paragraphs, code blocks, links, lists, blockquotes, horizontal rules, tables, emphasis, strong) MUST render through the same ds-styled components as the current pipeline. The componentMap SHALL additionally include `Callout` as a custom component available without explicit import.
+
+#### Scenario: Heading renders via component map
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains `## Section Title`
+- **THEN** it renders as `<Heading level={2}>Section Title</Heading>` with auto-generated id
+
+#### Scenario: Code fence renders via SyntaxBlock
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains a fenced code block with language `tsx`
+- **THEN** it renders as `<SyntaxBlock language="tsx">` with syntax highlighting
+
+#### Scenario: Callout available in componentMap
+- **WHEN** an MDX file uses `<Callout variant="tip">content</Callout>` without explicit import
+- **THEN** the Callout component renders with tip variant styling via the componentMap
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: SyntaxBlock title bar
+
+SyntaxBlock SHALL accept an optional `title` prop (string). When provided, a header bar SHALL render above the code content displaying the title text in monospace font with a surface background and bottom border.
+
+#### Scenario: Title bar rendering
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with title="button.ts"
+- **THEN** a header bar appears above the code showing "button.ts" in monospace with a language indicator
+
+#### Scenario: No title
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders without a title prop
+- **THEN** no header bar renders — behavior matches current implementation
+
+### Requirement: SyntaxBlock copy button
+
+SyntaxBlock SHALL accept an optional `copyable` prop (boolean, default true). When true, a CopyButton SHALL render in the header area (in the title bar if title is present, otherwise in a minimal overlay position). The CopyButton SHALL copy the raw code text to clipboard.
+
+#### Scenario: Copy button present by default
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders without explicit copyable prop
+- **THEN** a copy button is visible in the header/overlay area
+
+#### Scenario: Copy button copies code
+- **WHEN** user clicks the copy button on a SyntaxBlock
+- **THEN** the raw code text (children string) is copied to clipboard with animated feedback
+
+#### Scenario: Copy disabled
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with copyable={false}
+- **THEN** no copy button renders
+
+### Requirement: SyntaxBlock collapsible mode
+
+SyntaxBlock SHALL accept an optional `collapsible` prop (boolean, default false). When true, a collapse toggle SHALL appear in the title bar. Clicking it SHALL toggle the code content visibility. The toggle chevron SHALL rotate with CSS transition.
+
+#### Scenario: Collapsible with title
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with collapsible={true} and title="example.ts"
+- **THEN** a collapse chevron appears in the title bar; clicking it hides the code content
+
+#### Scenario: Collapsed state
+- **WHEN** the code content is collapsed
+- **THEN** only the title bar is visible; the chevron rotates to indicate collapsed state
+
+### Requirement: SyntaxBlock line numbers
+
+SyntaxBlock SHALL accept an optional `showLineNumbers` prop (boolean, default false). When true, line numbers SHALL render as a left-aligned column alongside each code line in dim color with right alignment and user-select: none.
+
+#### Scenario: Line numbers enabled
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with showLineNumbers={true}
+- **THEN** each line displays a line number starting at 1, right-aligned, in dim color, not selectable
+
+#### Scenario: Line numbers disabled by default
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders without showLineNumbers
+- **THEN** no line numbers appear — matches current behavior
+
+### Requirement: Heading anchor link
+
+The Heading component SHALL display a hover-visible anchor link icon. When the user hovers over a heading, a link icon SHALL appear. Clicking the icon SHALL copy the `#id` fragment to clipboard via CopyButton behavior and provide visual feedback.
+
+#### Scenario: Anchor icon visibility
+- **WHEN** user hovers over a Heading
+- **THEN** a small link icon appears adjacent to the heading text with opacity transition
+
+#### Scenario: Anchor click copies fragment
+- **WHEN** user clicks the anchor icon on a Heading with id="slot-composition"
+- **THEN** "#slot-composition" is copied to clipboard with check icon feedback

+## 1. Atoms — CopyButton & TokenBadge
+
+- [x] 1.1 Create CopyButton component (`components/docs/CopyButton.tsx`): ds-styled button with copy/check SVG icons, useState for copied state, setTimeout(1500ms) reset, size variant (sm/md). Ref: `tmp/doc-atoms.jsx` CopyButton lines 82-106.
+- [x] 1.2 Create TokenBadge component (`components/docs/TokenBadge.tsx`): ds.styles + .variant() with 7 variants (method/layer/type/prop/tag/danger/success). ALL colors via token opacity syntax — bg uses `'{colors.palette.weight/12}'`, border/color use raw palette paths for mode-stable identity. Zero hardcoded hex/rgba. See design.md Decision 3 for exact mappings. Ref: `tmp/doc-components.jsx` TokenBadge lines 30-49.
+- [x] 1.3 Export CopyButton and TokenBadge from `components/index.ts`
+
+## 2. Callout — MDX Admonition Primitive
+
+- [x] 2.1 Create Callout component (`components/docs/Callout.tsx`): ds.styles + .variant() with 4 variants (info/tip/warn/danger). Each has left border color via raw palette path, tinted bg via token opacity syntax (`'{colors.ocean.500/6}'` etc.), icon via `_before` pseudo-element. Optional title prop. Zero hardcoded hex/rgba. See design.md Callout color strategy. Ref: `tmp/doc-components.jsx` Callout lines 201-221.
+- [x] 2.2 Register Callout in MDXProvider componentMap (`components/docs/MDXProvider.tsx`)
+- [x] 2.3 Export Callout from `components/index.ts`
+
+## 3. SyntaxBlock Enhancement
+
+- [x] 3.1 Add title bar to SyntaxBlock: optional `title` prop, header div with monospace filename + language indicator, surface bg, bottom border. Wrap existing Highlight in a new container div.
+- [x] 3.2 Add CopyButton to SyntaxBlock: in title bar if title present, otherwise positioned overlay. Copies raw children string.
+- [x] 3.3 Add collapsible mode: optional `collapsible` prop + useState for collapsed. Chevron in title bar with CSS rotation transition. Hides code content when collapsed.
+- [x] 3.4 Add line numbers: optional `showLineNumbers` prop. Render line number column in existing line map loop — dim color, right-aligned, user-select:none.
+
+## 4. Heading Enhancement
+
+- [x] 4.1 Add anchor link icon to Heading: hover-visible SVG link icon via opacity transition. Uses ds._hover for opacity control.
+- [x] 4.2 Add click-to-copy anchor: clicking icon copies `#${id}` to clipboard using CopyButton's pattern (useState, setTimeout feedback). Show check icon briefly.
+
+## 5. Reference Doc Components
+
+- [x] 5.1 Create TypeSignature component (`components/docs/TypeSignature.tsx`): monospace layout with color-coded spans (name=primary/accent, generics=secondary, params=info/blue, returns=success/teal). Left accent border, surface bg. Ref: `tmp/doc-components.jsx` TypeSignature lines 177-199.
+- [x] 5.2 Create ParamTable component (`components/docs/ParamTable.tsx`): renders existing TableContainer/Th/Td with 4-column API structure. TokenBadge in type column. Accent color for "required" defaults. Ref: `tmp/doc-components.jsx` ParamTable lines 149-175.
+- [x] 5.3 Create MethodCard component (`components/docs/MethodCard.tsx`): expandable card with header (name, description, returnType TokenBadge, chevron) + detail section (available-after badge, example ReactNode). Use `.states({ expanded: {...} })` for CSS-driven visibility + chevron rotation via data-expanded attribute. useState for toggle logic, but styling is states-layer. aria-expanded for a11y. Ref: `tmp/doc-components.jsx` MethodCard lines 287-327.

+## Context
+
+`.from()` on `ThemeBuilder` (`createTheme.ts:206-234`) deep merges a built theme into a fresh builder state, preserving emitted scales, contextual vars, and manifest data. Same-name scales and colors merge (union of keys). The showcase already imports `referenceTokens` from `@animus-ui/test-ds` but doesn't demonstrate theme composition — the showcase builds its own theme from scratch in `ds.ts`.
+
+The existing Examples page already has an "External Package Components" section showing test-ds `Button` and `Card` rendering against the showcase theme. The theme composition proof extends this pattern: show that a consumer can import a library's reference theme, extend it, and see the library's components render correctly.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Demonstrate `.from()` theme composition in the showcase with real code
+- Document the three extension patterns (from, additive, selective spread) in a docs page
+- Make the "second app" story visible and verifiable
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- No new API surface (`.from()` already exists and works)
+- No theme override/replace semantics (merge-only is the current behavior — documenting what IS, not designing what could be)
+- No changes to test-ds (it already exports `referenceTokens`)
+
+## Decisions
+
+**1. Showcase section placement: extend existing Examples page, not new route**
+
+The Examples page already has the "External Package Components" section. Adding a "Theme Composition" section immediately after creates a natural narrative: "here are external components" → "here's how you extend their theme." A separate route would fragment the story.
+
+**2. Docs page location: `content/architecture/theme-extension.md`**
+
+Theme extension is an architecture concern, not an authoring or reference topic. It sits alongside `system-setup.md`, `theming.md`, and `color-modes.md` in the architecture section.
+
+**3. Show `.from()` in-page, not in `ds.ts`**
+
+The showcase's `ds.ts` already builds a complete theme. Rather than restructuring it to use `.from()`, the Examples page will show a self-contained code example with explanatory prose. The actual running components already prove the integration — test-ds components render against the showcase theme because the showcase theme includes compatible color modes and scales.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- [Risk] The showcase theme and test-ds referenceTokens use different scale names (e.g., showcase uses `fire.*` colors, test-ds uses `blue.*`/`red.*`). → The `.from()` demo will show that both coexist after merge, not that they conflict.
+- [Risk] Readers may confuse `.from()` (theme extension) with `.includes()` (system builder discovery). → The docs page will explicitly distinguish the two: `.from()` is for tokens/theme, `.includes()` is for system/components.

+## Why
+
+`.from()` theme composition works today — verified: deep merges colors, scales, breakpoints, and color modes; same-name scales merge (union of keys); serialization round-trips correctly. But there is zero visibility into this capability: no showcase section, no docs page, no example code. The "second app" story — a consumer extending a library theme — is the first question any team evaluating Animus for org-wide adoption will ask, and currently the answer is "trust us, it works."
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Showcase Examples page**: New "Theme Composition" section demonstrating `createTheme().from(referenceTokens)` with additive colors and scales, rendering test-ds components against the extended consumer theme.
+- **Docs content**: New `content/architecture/theme-extension.md` documenting the three extension mechanisms: `.from()` (full theme), `.addColors()` / `.addScale()` after `.from()` (additive), and selective spread (cherry-pick scales).
+- **test-ds reference**: The showcase already imports `referenceTokens` from `@animus-ui/test-ds` — the docs page will explain what this token contract means and how consumers honor or extend it.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `theme-composition-showcase`: Showcase section demonstrating `.from()` theme extension with test-ds referenceTokens — import, extend, render, verify.
+- `theme-extension-docs`: Docs page explaining the three theme extension patterns (from, additive, selective spread) with code examples and the token contract concept.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+(none)
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Files**: `packages/showcase/src/pages/Examples.tsx` (new section), `packages/showcase/src/content/architecture/theme-extension.md` (new), `packages/showcase/src/constants/docsNav.ts` (nav entry)
+- **No code changes**: All changes are showcase content and documentation. No runtime, type, extract, or plugin changes.
+- **Dependencies**: Uses existing `@animus-ui/test-ds` exports (`referenceTokens`, `Button`, `Card`) — no new dependencies.

+- **WHEN** the "Theme Composition" section renders
+- **THEN** test-ds `Button` and `Card` components are rendered inline, styled by the showcase's consumer theme
+- **AND** the section explains these components were authored against test-ds's reference theme but render correctly because the consumer theme includes compatible tokens
+
+### Requirement: Section appears after External Package Components
+The "Theme Composition" section SHALL appear immediately after the existing "External Package Components" section to create a narrative flow: external components → theme extension.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Theme extension docs page
+A docs page at `content/architecture/theme-extension.md` SHALL document the three theme extension patterns with code examples.
+
+#### Scenario: Full extension via from()
+- **WHEN** a reader visits the theme extension docs
+- **THEN** the page explains `createTheme().from(builtTheme)` with a code example showing import of a library theme, additive `.addColors()` / `.addScale()` calls, and `.build()`
+- **AND** explains that `.from()` deep merges all data (colors, scales, breakpoints, color modes, contextual vars)
+- **AND** explains that same-name scales merge (union of keys, consumer values override on collision)
+
+#### Scenario: Selective spread pattern
+- **WHEN** a reader visits the theme extension docs
+- **THEN** the page shows the selective spread pattern: `addColors({ ...libTokens.colors })` for cherry-picking specific scales without inheriting the full theme
+
+#### Scenario: Distinction between from() and includes()
+- **WHEN** a reader visits the theme extension docs
+- **THEN** the page explicitly distinguishes `.from()` (ThemeBuilder — token/scale composition) from `.includes()` (SystemBuilder — component discovery for extraction)
+- **AND** explains that a consumer app typically uses BOTH: `.from()` to extend a library's tokens and `.includes()` to enable extraction of the library's components
+
+### Requirement: Navigation entry
+The docs navigation SHALL include a link to the theme extension page under the Architecture section.
+
+#### Scenario: Nav entry appears
+- **WHEN** a user views the docs sidebar
+- **THEN** "Theme Extension" appears in the Architecture section alongside "Theming", "Color Modes", and "System Setup"

+## Context
+
+Session 55-56 shipped polished doc primitives and validated ark-ui headless composition. The components are idiomatically "in Animus" but lack interactive teaching features. An external design reference (tmp/doc-refine.jsx) provided concrete UI concepts. This change extracts the best ideas and implements them with Animus patterns — no inline styles, no hardcoded colors, all ds elements with token references.
+
+Current component state:
+- **SyntaxBlock** — prism-react-renderer, title bar, collapsible, copy button, line numbers. No line highlighting or diff support.
+- **ChainStep** — step buttons with `.states({ active })`, lucide ArrowRight connectors. Click changes active step but shows no detail about what that step does.
+- **Preview areas** — TabGroup (now ark-ui Tabs) with preview/code panes. Empty dark background in preview, no interactive variant switching.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- SyntaxBlock gains `highlights` and `diffs` props that compose with existing line rendering
+- ChainStep evolves into ChainVisualizer with a detail panel that teaches the builder chain
+- Preview areas get a dot grid canvas background and optional variant controls
+- All new features use ds elements, token opacity syntax, and .states()/.variant() patterns
+- MDX authors can use new features declaratively
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Building a Storybook replacement (variant controls are simple, not a full component playground)
+- Rewriting SyntaxBlock's syntax highlighting (prism-react-renderer stays)
+- Animated connector dots or keyframe pulse rings (glow is static box-shadow, not animation)
+- Sidebar redesign, search, or status dots
+- "CSS output" tab showing extraction results (interesting, separate scope)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: SyntaxBlock line features as additive props
+
+**Choice:** Add `highlights?: number[]` and `diffs?: Record<number, '+' | '-'>` to SyntaxBlock's props. These compose with the existing line rendering loop — each line checks if its number is in highlights or diffs and applies additional styling.
+
+**Why:** Zero disruption to existing usage. Every current SyntaxBlock renders unchanged. New features are opt-in per code block.
+
+**Implementation approach:**
+- Line highlight: wrap each line in a ds element with `.states({ highlighted: { bg: '{colors.amber.500/8}', borderLeft: '2px solid {colors.amber.500}' } })`
+- Diff markers: variant with `prop: 'diff'`, variants `{ added: { bg: '{colors.forest.500/8}', borderLeft: '2px solid {colors.forest.500}' }, removed: { bg: '{colors.fire.500/6}', borderLeft: '2px solid {colors.fire.500}' } }`
+- Gutter marker (+ or -) uses the same diff variant for color
+
+### Decision 2: ChainVisualizer as evolution of ChainStep
+
+**Choice:** Rename ChainStep to ChainVisualizer (or keep ChainStep as the import but refactor internals). Add a detail panel below the chain strip that renders per-step content.
+
+**Why:** The chain strip (step buttons + connectors) already works. The detail panel is additive — it appears below the strip and changes content when the active step changes.
+
+**Data model:** Each step gains `description`, `code`, `repeatable`, and `available` fields alongside existing `label` and `layer`. The detail panel is a 2-column grid: description left, SyntaxBlock right.
+
+**Active glow:** Replace the current `active` state's `bg: '{colors.fire.500/12}'` with the addition of `boxShadow: '0 0 20px {colors.fire.500/12}'`. Glow IS the bg color bleeding outward — same token, same intent, just visible beyond the border.
+
+**Cascade bar:** Array of small ds elements, one per step, with height proportional to cascade position. Active step gets accent color; earlier steps get dimmed accent; later steps get ghost.
+
+### Decision 3: LivePreview as a new component wrapping TabGroup
+
+**Choice:** Create a LivePreview component that wraps TabGroup (Ark Tabs) and adds preview-specific features: dot grid background and optional variant controls.
+
+**Why:** TabGroup is a generic tabs primitive. LivePreview is a doc-specific pattern that adds the canvas feel and variant switching. Keeps TabGroup clean for non-preview uses.
+
+**Dot grid:** A single ds element with `backgroundImage: 'radial-gradient(circle, {colors.text.dim/8} 0.5px, transparent 0.5px)'` and `backgroundSize: '20px 20px'`. Applied to the preview pane only.
+
+**Variant controls:** `variants` prop accepts `Record<string, string[]>` — key is variant name, values are options. Renders a segmented control in the toolbar. Selected values passed to the preview children via render prop or context. MDX authors use it like: `<LivePreview variants={{ size: ['sm', 'md', 'lg'] }}>`.
+
+### Decision 4: No keyframe animations
+
+**Choice:** The active glow is a static `box-shadow`, not an animated pulse ring. Transitions use `transition: 'all 0.2s ease'` for smooth state changes, but no `@keyframes`.
+
+**Why:** The reference's pulse ring draws the eye repeatedly. A static glow draws it once. Once is enough — the user clicked the step, they know where they are. Transitions make state changes feel smooth; animations make the page feel busy.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[ChainVisualizer data model]** → The detail panel requires step data (description, code) that currently doesn't exist. This data lives in the MDX page that uses ChainStep, not in the component itself. The component accepts it as props — the MDX page provides it.
+
+**[Variant controls complexity]** → The render prop / context pattern for passing selected variants to preview children adds API surface. Mitigated by keeping it simple: `children` receives a `variants` object with current selections, or we use React context.
+
+**[MDX code fence integration]** → `highlights` and `diffs` need to be passable through MDX code fences. May require MDX plugin configuration or manual `<SyntaxBlock>` usage instead of triple-backtick fences. Investigate during implementation.

+## Why
+
+The doc primitives are functionally correct but miss opportunities to teach effectively. Code examples can't draw attention to specific lines, migration guides can't show diffs, the chain visualizer gives no detail when you click a step, and component previews sit in empty dark voids. An external design reference (tmp/doc-refine.jsx) surfaced concrete ideas that map directly onto our existing components as additive upgrades — no rewrites, no new dependencies.
+
+## What Changes
+
+### SyntaxBlock — line highlighting + diff markers
+- `highlights` prop: array of line numbers → amber glow background, highlighted gutter number. "Look at these lines."
+- `diffs` prop: object mapping line numbers to `"+"` or `"-"` → colored gutter markers (forest for added, fire for removed) + tinted line background. Essential for migration guides and before/after comparisons.
+
+### ChainStep → ChainVisualizer — active glow + detail panel
+- Active step glow: `box-shadow: 0 0 20px {colors.fire.500/12}` on the active button. Makes active step visually unambiguous.
+- Detail panel below the chain strip: split-pane showing description (left) + code example via SyntaxBlock (right) for the active step. Turns "click to highlight" into "click to learn."
+- Cascade specificity bar: stacked bars showing relative cascade depth per step.
+- "Repeatable" vs "once" indicator badge per step.
+
+### LivePreview — dot grid background + variant controls
+- Dot grid background in preview areas: `radial-gradient(circle, {colors.text.dim/8} 0.5px, transparent 0.5px)` with 20px spacing. Makes preview feel like a design canvas instead of empty dark space.
+- Variant controls toolbar: segmented control in the preview toolbar for switching between variant values. MDX authors declare which variants are switchable. Not Storybook — just declarative interactive examples leveraging our existing component + MDX infrastructure.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `syntax-line-features`: Line highlighting and diff marker support for SyntaxBlock
+- `chain-visualizer`: Enhanced chain step component with detail panel, cascade bar, and step metadata
+- `live-preview`: Preview component with dot grid canvas and optional variant controls toolbar
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `doc-interactive`: ChainStep upgraded to ChainVisualizer with active glow and detail panel
+- `markdown-renderer`: SyntaxBlock gains `highlights` and `diffs` props for MDX code fences
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Modified components**: SyntaxBlock, ChainStep (renamed/upgraded to ChainVisualizer)
+- **New component**: LivePreview (or upgraded pattern on existing preview usage)
+- **MDX authoring**: New props available in code fences (`highlights`, `diffs`) and preview blocks (variant controls)
+- **No new dependencies**: All features built with existing ds primitives, tokens, and Animus patterns
+- **No extraction changes**: All new styles use .styles(), .states(), .variant() — standard extraction targets

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: SyntaxBlock highlights specific lines
+SyntaxBlock SHALL accept a `highlights` prop (array of 1-based line numbers) that applies an amber glow background and highlighted line number to the specified lines.
+
+#### Scenario: Single line highlighted
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with `highlights={[3]}`
+- **THEN** line 3 has an amber-tinted background (`{colors.amber.500/8}`), a left border accent (`2px solid {colors.amber.500}`), and its line number is rendered in amber
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple lines highlighted
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with `highlights={[2, 5, 6]}`
+- **THEN** lines 2, 5, and 6 all display highlight styling, non-highlighted lines are unaffected
+
+#### Scenario: No highlights prop
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders without a `highlights` prop
+- **THEN** all lines render identically to current behavior — no visual change
+
+### Requirement: SyntaxBlock displays diff markers
+SyntaxBlock SHALL accept a `diffs` prop (object mapping 1-based line numbers to `"+"` or `"-"`) that adds colored gutter markers and tinted line backgrounds.
+
+#### Scenario: Added line
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with `diffs={{ 3: "+" }}`
+- **THEN** line 3 has a forest-tinted background (`{colors.forest.500/8}`), a left border (`2px solid {colors.forest.500}`), and a `+` marker in the gutter
+
+#### Scenario: Removed line
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with `diffs={{ 2: "-" }}`
+- **THEN** line 2 has a fire-tinted background (`{colors.fire.500/6}`), a left border (`2px solid {colors.fire.500}`), and a `-` marker in the gutter
+
+#### Scenario: Mixed diffs and highlights
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with both `highlights` and `diffs` on the same line
+- **THEN** diff styling takes precedence over highlight styling
+
+#### Scenario: No diffs prop
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders without a `diffs` prop
+- **THEN** all lines render without gutter markers — no visual change

+## Context
+
+12 doc-primitive components were shipped in session 54. A seam audit compared them against the gold standard surface components (Button, Card, Tooltip) and the full ds API surface (builder chain, selector aliases, compose, states). The audit found 5 categories of corrections needed, all using existing ds features that were either unknown or skipped during rapid implementation.
+
+Key reference patterns:
+- **Card**: `compose()` with `{ shared: { density: true } }` for slot families
+- **Button**: Multi-axis variants, color scheme rebinding, `.system({ space: true })`
+- **Tooltip**: `compose()` with `context: true` for portal-crossing
+- **Drawer**: `.states({ open })` for CSS-driven visibility
+- **RevealBlock**: `.states({ visible })` for CSS-driven animation
+- **PageToc**: `.states({ active })` for active link highlighting
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Every doc component uses `.states()` where it toggles visual state based on a boolean
+- Every slot family with shared variant axes uses `compose()`
+- Every interactive element has `_focusVisible` styles
+- Playwright baseline captures the kitchen sink in all 10 color modes
+- Components that could consolidate multiple ds definitions into one variant do so
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Icon system changes (inline SVGs stay — separate spike)
+- ark-ui integration (separate spike)
+- MethodCard → compose() (no shared variant axis, conditional rendering is correct)
+- borderRadius additions (radii: 0 is intentional)
+- Visual design changes (colors, spacing, fonts)
+- New components or features
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: States over inline styles — the universal pattern
+
+**Choice:** Replace all `style={{ transform: ... }}` and `style={{ opacity: ..., color: ... }}` patterns with `.states()`.
+
+**Why:** `.states()` generates `data-state-*` attributes that the extraction pipeline processes into `@layer states` CSS. Inline styles bypass extraction entirely — they're invisible to the cascade contract. The existing Drawer, RevealBlock, and PageToc all demonstrate the pattern.
+
+**How:** For each affected element, add a `.states()` call to the chain and pass the boolean as a prop:
+```ts
+// Before
+<Chevron style={{ transform: expanded ? 'rotate(180deg)' : 'rotate(0deg)' }}>
+// After  
+const Chevron = ds.styles({ ... }).states({ expanded: { transform: 'rotate(180deg)' } }).asElement('span');
+<Chevron expanded={expanded}>
+```
+
+**Components:** ChainStep (StepLabel, LayerLabel), Heading (AnchorButton), MethodCard (Chevron), SyntaxBlock (CollapseToggle, SyntaxPre)
+
+### Decision 2: compose() for Callout only
+
+**Choice:** Migrate Callout to `compose()`. Do NOT migrate MethodCard.
+
+**Why Callout:** Container, Icon, and Title share the identical variant axis (`variant: info|tip|warn|danger`) with identical option names. Currently the variant is passed 3 times in JSX. This is the textbook `compose()` case — Card does the same thing with `density`.
+
+**Why NOT MethodCard:** MethodCard has 8 sub-elements but no shared variant axis. The expand/collapse is handled via conditional rendering (`{expanded && <DetailSection>}`), which is correct for performance — conditional rendering doesn't mount the DOM until needed. Forcing compose() here would require always mounting the detail section and hiding it via CSS, which is a worse tradeoff.
+
+**Implementation:**
+```ts
+export const Callout = compose(
+  { Root: CalloutContainer, Header: CalloutHeader, Icon: CalloutIcon, Title: CalloutTitle, Body: CalloutBody },
+  { shared: { variant: true } }
+);
+```
+
+**MDXProvider impact:** The componentMap entry changes from `Callout` (function component) to using `Callout.Root` as the outer element. The `Callout` export from Callout.tsx becomes a convenience wrapper that uses the composed family internally.
+
+### Decision 3: TypeSignature consolidation — 6 elements to 1 variant
+
+**Choice:** Replace 6 single-purpose styled spans with one `TokenSpan` element that has a `role` variant.
+
+**Why:** NameSpan, GenericSpan, PunctSpan, ParamNameSpan, ParamTypeSpan, ReturnSpan differ only in `color`. This is exactly what variants are for — switching a CSS property based on a prop value.
+
+```ts
+const TokenSpan = ds
+  .styles({ fontWeight: 700 })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'role',
+    variants: {
+      name: { color: 'primary', fontWeight: 700 },
+      generic: { color: '{colors.violet.400}' },
+      punct: { color: 'text.dim', fontWeight: 400 },
+      param: { color: '{colors.ocean.500}' },
+      paramType: { color: '{colors.violet.400}' },
+      return: { color: '{colors.forest.500}' },
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('span');
+```
+
+### Decision 4: Heading — CSS-only hover, proper button element
+
+**Choice:** Three changes in one component:
+1. Replace JS onMouseEnter/onMouseLeave with `_hover: { '& [data-anchor]': { opacity: '0.5' } }` on HeadingWrapper
+2. Replace inline style copied feedback with `.states({ copied })` on AnchorButton  
+3. Change AnchorButton from `<span role="button" tabIndex={0}>` to `<button>` element
+
+**Why:** The SyntaxBlock CopyOverlay already demonstrates the CSS-only hover-reveal pattern with `_hover: { '& [data-copy-overlay]': { opacity: '1' } }`. The Heading should use the same approach. The span-with-role-button is semantically incorrect and misses native keyboard handling (Enter/Space).
+
+### Decision 5: TabGroup keyboard navigation
+
+**Choice:** Implement the WAI-ARIA Tabs pattern with roving tabindex.
+
+**Implementation:**
+- Only the active tab has `tabIndex={0}`, inactive tabs have `tabIndex={-1}`
+- ArrowLeft/ArrowRight move focus and activate the adjacent tab
+- Home/End jump to first/last tab
+- Wrap around at boundaries
+
+**Why:** The existing `role="tablist"` and `role="tab"` attributes set up the ARIA contract but don't fulfill it — keyboard users currently can't navigate between tabs without Tab key, which is incorrect per WAI-ARIA.
+
+### Decision 6: Playwright verification — mode sweep, not pixel-perfect
+
+**Choice:** Screenshot the kitchen sink page in all 10 color modes as a verification pass, not a pixel-perfect regression suite.
+
+**Why:** The goal is to catch contrast/token issues across modes (e.g., a color that works in dark mode but disappears in light mode). This is a one-time audit that produces screenshots for human review, not an automated CI gate.
+
+**Implementation:** Playwright script that navigates to `/docs/support/component-test`, sets `data-color-mode` attribute, captures full-page screenshot per mode.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Callout compose() changes JSX usage]** → The convenience wrapper function (`export function Callout()`) is preserved with the same props API. Internal implementation changes to use the composed family. MDXProvider componentMap continues to reference the wrapper, not the raw family. Zero breaking changes for MDX authors.
+
+**[States on Chevron/CollapseToggle may produce different animation timing]** → `.states()` applies styles via data-attributes in `@layer states`. The `transition` property on the base element handles animation. Test that rotation transitions still animate smoothly after the change.
+
+**[TypeSignature TokenSpan variant may generate more CSS than 6 separate elements]** → Each variant option generates a CSS rule. 6 rules in one class vs 6 separate classes. Net CSS output is similar. Extraction handles both correctly.
+
+**[TabGroup keyboard nav adds React complexity]** → useCallback + onKeyDown handler. Contained to TabGroup component, does not leak. The pattern is well-established (WAI-ARIA Tabs spec).

+## Why
+
+Session 54 shipped 12 doc-primitive components rapidly to professionalize the showcase docs. They extract, they build, they render. But a seam audit against the gold standard components (Button, Card, Tooltip) reveals systematic anti-patterns: JS event handlers where CSS selectors exist, duplicate elements where `.states()` exists, manual variant passing where `compose()` exists, and missing accessibility semantics.
+
+This is not visual design polish. This is making the doc primitives idiomatically "in Animus" — using the ds features that exist for exactly these purposes.
+
+## What Changes
+
+**Category 1 — States anti-patterns** (4 components):
+- ChainStep: 4 duplicate elements (StepLabel/StepLabelActive, LayerLabel/LayerLabelActive) → 2 elements with `.states({ active })`
+- Heading: JS onMouseEnter/onMouseLeave → CSS `_hover` on wrapper. Inline style copied state → `.states({ copied })`. span+role=button → `<button>`
+- MethodCard: Chevron inline style rotation → `.states({ expanded })`
+- SyntaxBlock: CollapseToggle inline style rotation → `.states({ collapsed })`. SyntaxPre conditional inline style → variant
+
+**Category 2 — compose() for Callout**:
+- 3 sub-elements (Container, Icon, Title) share identical variant axis → `compose()` with `{ shared: { variant: true } }`
+
+**Category 3 — Consolidation** (2 components):
+- TypeSignature: 6 single-purpose spans → 1 element with `.variant({ prop: 'role' })`
+- SyntaxBlock: `tokens.colors.text` → `tokens.varRef('colors.text')` in animusTheme
+
+**Category 4 — Accessibility** (4 components):
+- CopyButton, TabGroup, Heading: `_focusVisible` focus rings
+- TabGroup: keyboard navigation (arrow keys, roving tabindex)
+- MethodCard: `aria-controls`, `role="region"`, `aria-labelledby` on detail section
+
+**Category 5 — Playwright verification baseline**:
+- Screenshot kitchen sink across all 10 color modes
+- Capture baseline for visual regression
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `doc-atoms`: CopyButton focus ring, TokenBadge unchanged
+- `doc-callout`: Callout → compose() migration
+- `doc-reference`: TypeSignature consolidation, MethodCard states + a11y
+- `doc-interactive`: ChainStep dedup, TabGroup keyboard nav
+- `markdown-renderer`: Heading CSS hover + states + button, SyntaxBlock states + token fix
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Files modified**: 7 component files (ChainStep, Heading, MethodCard, SyntaxBlock, Callout, TypeSignature, CopyButton) + TabGroup + MDXProvider + kitchen sink MDX
+- **No new dependencies**: All fixes use existing ds features
+- **No API changes**: Component props remain the same, only internals change
+- **Extraction**: All changes remain statically extractable — states, compose, variants are all extraction-compatible
+- **Risk**: Callout compose() migration changes the JSX usage pattern — MDXProvider componentMap may need adjustment

+## Context
+
+The `prefix` option was added to the extraction pipeline to namespace CSS output — layer names, class names, and CSS custom properties all get a `{prefix}-` prepended. This enables multiple design systems (or Animus + Tailwind) to coexist without layer/variable name collisions.
+
+The implementation correctly handles:
+- **Layer names**: Rust `prefix_layer()` and TS `prefixLayerName()` both apply dash-separated prefixes at emission time.
+- **Class names**: Rust `make_class_name()` uses the prefix as the class name root.
+- **CSS variable declarations**: TS `applyPrefix()` transforms `--color-x:` → `--{prefix}-color-x:` and `var(--color-x)` → `var(--{prefix}-color-x)` in both variable CSS and theme JSON.
+
+Two pathways were missed:
+1. **Contextual variable resolution** — `applyPrefix()` prefixes the contextual var *names* array (`["current-bg"]` → `["ax-current-bg"]`), which breaks Rust-side matching since token aliases like `{colors.current-bg}` look up by the original name. And `resolve_contextual_var()` emits `var(--{name})` without prefix.
+2. **`tokens.varRef()` runtime method** — reads from the original `variableMap` built at theme construction time (before any prefix application), so `varRef('colors.text')` returns `var(--color-text)` while the CSS declares `--ax-color-text`.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Contextual variable token aliases resolve correctly when prefix is configured
+- `tokens.varRef()` returns prefixed variable references matching emitted CSS
+- Showcase exercises prefix + custom layers as integration proof
+- Zero behavioral change when no prefix is configured
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing the prefix delimiter (dash-separated is the established convention)
+- Adding prefix support to `compose()` slot distribution (already works via class name prefix)
+- Runtime prefix switching — prefix is a build-time constant
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Fix contextual var matching at the TS boundary, not the Rust boundary
+
+**Decision**: Remove contextual var name prefixing from `applyPrefix()`. The names are lookup keys for token path matching, not CSS output. The Rust resolver matches `{colors.current-bg}` against the names array — prefixing the array breaks the match.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Make Rust strip the prefix before matching. Rejected because it couples the resolver to prefix format knowledge that belongs in the TS orchestration layer. The principle: extraction Rust crate receives ready-to-use data; it shouldn't need to undo TS-side transformations.
+
+### 2. Add prefix to `ResolveContext`, thread through resolver
+
+**Decision**: Add `pub prefix: Option<&'a str>` to `ResolveContext`. Thread it through `resolve_styles` → `resolve_flat_styles` → `resolve_single_prop` → `resolve_token_aliases` → `resolve_single_alias` → `resolve_contextual_var`. The final function emits `var(--{prefix}-{name})` when prefix is `Some`.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Only add prefix to `resolve_contextual_var` and thread piecemeal. Rejected because `ResolveContext` is the canonical place for extraction-wide configuration — prefix affects resolution semantics the same way `variable_map` does.
+
+Construction sites to update (5):
+- `lib.rs` — per-file extraction (`prefix: None`)
+- `project_analyzer.rs` — project analysis (`prefix: layer_prefix`)
+- `css_generator.rs` — custom prop context (`prefix: ctx.prefix`)
+- `theme_resolver.rs` tests — `TestCtxOwner::ctx()` (`prefix: None`)
+- `css_generator.rs` tests — test helper `ctx()` (`prefix: None`)
+
+### 3. Prefix awareness for `varRef` via system-level config
+
+**Decision**: Add optional `prefix` to `createSystem()` config. The system passes it to `createTheme`, which stores it and applies it in `varRef()` — prepending `{prefix}-` to variable name lookups. The plugin reads prefix from `serialize()` output and validates/uses it, eliminating config duplication.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Build-time static replacement of `tokens.varRef()` calls by the vite plugin. Rejected because varRef is used at runtime in dynamic contexts (e.g., syntax highlighting token maps in SyntaxBlock) where static replacement is fragile.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Keep prefix only on the plugin and inject a `__ANIMUS_PREFIX__` runtime global. Rejected because it introduces runtime coupling to build config and doesn't work in SSR/test contexts.
+
+**Flow**:
+```
+createSystem({ prefix: 'ax' })
+  → createTheme stores prefix
+  → varRef('colors.text') returns var(--ax-color-text)
+  → serialize() includes prefix in output
+  → plugin reads prefix from serialized config (single source of truth)
+```
+
+### 4. Showcase config: `prefix: 'ax'` with bookend layers
+
+**Decision**: Use `ax` as the showcase prefix (short, Animus-derived, visually distinct). Add `reset` and `overrides` bookend layers to demonstrate interleaving.
+
+```typescript
+animusExtract({
+  system: './src/ds.ts',
+  prefix: 'ax',
+  layers: ['reset', 'ax-global', 'ax-base', 'ax-variants', 'ax-compounds', 'ax-states', 'ax-system', 'ax-custom', 'overrides'],
+})
+```
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Prefix duplication until system-level lands]** → The Rust crate fix (tasks 1-2) and the TS `applyPrefix` fix can ship independently. The `varRef` system-level prefix (task 3) requires a design system config change. If we land tasks 1-2 first, prefix works for extraction but not `varRef`. Mitigation: showcase doesn't use `varRef` in extracted styles, so the build succeeds after tasks 1-2.
+- **[ResolveContext grows]** → Adding another field to a struct threaded through dozens of functions. Mitigation: `Option<&str>` is zero-cost when `None`, and this field is genuinely resolution-scoped.
+- **[System-level prefix and plugin-level prefix could conflict]** → If system says `ax` and plugin says `acme`. Mitigation: plugin validates they match and throws if not. Single source of truth is the system; plugin config becomes optional override.

+## Why
+
+When `prefix` is configured in the extraction plugin, two resolution pathways silently break: contextual variable token aliases (`{colors.current-bg}`) fail to resolve and leak raw token text into CSS, and `tokens.varRef()` emits unprefixed `var()` references that don't match the prefixed declarations. These bugs make the prefix feature unusable for any design system that uses contextual vars or runtime `varRef` lookups — which is most real-world usage.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Stop prefixing contextual var lookup keys** in `applyPrefix()` — contextual var names are used for Rust-side token path matching, not as CSS variable names. Prefixing them breaks the match.
+- **Add prefix awareness to Rust resolver** — `ResolveContext` gains a `prefix` field, threaded through `resolve_contextual_var()` so it emits `var(--{prefix}-{name})` instead of `var(--{name})`.
+- **Make `tokens.varRef()` prefix-aware** — the runtime variable map lookup must return prefixed var references when the system is built with a prefix, so inline `style={}` usage matches the emitted CSS declarations.
+- **Showcase vite config** updated with `prefix: 'ax'` and custom `layers` to exercise the full feature as an integration proof.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `prefix-aware-resolution`: Ensures the namespace prefix flows correctly through all token resolution pathways — contextual vars in the Rust extractor and `varRef()` at runtime.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `contextual-vars`: Resolution must respect prefix — match against unprefixed names, emit prefixed `var()` references.
+- `theme-variable-emission`: `varRef()` must produce prefixed variable references when prefix is configured.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Rust crate** (`packages/extract/src/theme_resolver.rs`): `ResolveContext` struct gains field, `resolve_contextual_var` gains prefix parameter, 5 construction sites updated.
+- **TS pipeline** (`packages/extract/pipeline/prefix.ts`): Remove contextual var name prefixing from `applyPrefix()`.
+- **Theme system** (`packages/system/src/theme/createTheme.ts`): `varRef()` method needs prefix-aware variable map or prefix parameter.
+- **Showcase** (`packages/showcase/vite.config.ts`): Config updated with prefix + custom layers for integration testing.
+- **No breaking changes** — prefix is opt-in, unprefixed behavior unchanged.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Rust contextual var resolution
+The Rust extractor SHALL resolve contextual var names to their CSS custom property values when encountered as style values. When a namespace prefix is configured, the emitted `var()` reference SHALL use the prefixed custom property name.
+
+#### Scenario: Contextual var as direct value
+- **WHEN** a component has `borderColor: 'current-bg'` and `current-bg` is in the contextual vars registry for `colors`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `border-color: var(--current-bg)`
+
+#### Scenario: Contextual var in token ref syntax
+- **WHEN** a component has `boxShadow: '0 0 8px {colors.current-bg}'`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `box-shadow: 0 0 8px var(--current-bg)`
+
+#### Scenario: Token manifest takes precedence
+- **WHEN** a token key and contextual var have the same name (unlikely but possible)
+- **THEN** the token manifest resolution SHALL take precedence over contextual var resolution
+
+#### Scenario: Unknown contextual var falls through
+- **WHEN** a value does not match any contextual var name or token key
+- **THEN** it SHALL be passed through as a raw CSS value (existing behavior)
+
+#### Scenario: Contextual var with opacity syntax
+- **WHEN** a component has `borderColor: '{colors.current-bg/50}'`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `border-color: color-mix(in srgb, var(--current-bg) 50%, transparent)`
+
+#### Scenario: Rust resolver function signatures
+- **WHEN** the contextual vars registry is loaded from theme data
+- **THEN** it SHALL be accessible to `resolve_value`, `resolve_flat_styles`, and `resolve_single_alias` via a shared resolver context — not individual function parameters
+
+#### Scenario: Prefix-aware contextual var emission
+- **WHEN** a component has `borderColor: 'current-bg'` and `current-bg` is in contextual vars for `colors`
+- **AND** the resolve context has `prefix: Some("ax")`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `border-color: var(--ax-current-bg)`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: applyPrefix preserves contextual var lookup keys
+The `applyPrefix()` function SHALL NOT transform contextual variable names in `contextualVarsJson`. Contextual var names are token-path lookup keys used by the Rust resolver for matching — they are not CSS variable names. The Rust resolver SHALL apply the prefix at emission time.
+
+#### Scenario: Contextual var names unchanged after prefix
+- **WHEN** `applyPrefix('ax', variableMapJson, variableCss, themeJson, contextualVarsJson)` is called
+- **AND** `contextualVarsJson` contains `{ "colors": ["current-bg"] }`
+- **THEN** the returned `contextualVarsJson` SHALL contain `{ "colors": ["current-bg"] }`
+- **AND** the names SHALL NOT be prefixed to `["ax-current-bg"]`
+
+#### Scenario: Variable map values are still prefixed
+- **WHEN** `applyPrefix('ax', ...)` is called
+- **AND** `variableMapJson` contains `{ "colors.ember": "--color-ember" }`
+- **THEN** the returned `variableMapJson` SHALL contain `{ "colors.ember": "--ax-color-ember" }`
+
+### Requirement: ResolveContext carries prefix
+The Rust `ResolveContext` struct SHALL include a `prefix: Option<&str>` field that is threaded through all resolution functions that produce CSS `var()` references for contextual variables.
+
+#### Scenario: Project analysis passes prefix
+- **WHEN** `analyze()` is called with `layer_prefix: Some("ax")`
+- **THEN** the `ResolveContext` constructed for resolution SHALL have `prefix: Some("ax")`
+
+#### Scenario: Per-file extraction has no prefix
+- **WHEN** `extract()` is called (single-file mode)
+- **THEN** the `ResolveContext` SHALL have `prefix: None`
+
+#### Scenario: No prefix produces unchanged behavior
+- **WHEN** `ResolveContext` has `prefix: None`
+- **THEN** all resolution functions SHALL behave identically to pre-change behavior
+
+### Requirement: Prefixed contextual var emission
+The Rust `resolve_contextual_var()` function SHALL emit CSS `var()` references with the prefix applied when the resolution context carries a prefix.
+
+#### Scenario: Prefixed contextual var resolution
+- **WHEN** a component has `bg: 'current-bg'` with `current-bg` in contextual vars for `colors`
+- **AND** prefix is `Some("ax")`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `background: var(--ax-current-bg)`
+
+#### Scenario: Prefixed contextual var in token ref syntax
+- **WHEN** a component has `boxShadow: '0 0 8px {colors.current-bg}'`
+- **AND** prefix is `Some("ax")`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `box-shadow: 0 0 8px var(--ax-current-bg)`
+
+#### Scenario: Prefixed contextual var with opacity
+- **WHEN** a component has `color: '{colors.current-bg/85}'`
+- **AND** prefix is `Some("ax")`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `color: color-mix(in srgb, var(--ax-current-bg) 85%, transparent)`

+## Context
+
+Session 55 shipped a polish pass on 12 doc-primitive components, establishing idiomatic Animus patterns (.states(), compose(), selector aliases, _focusVisible). The components now use the ds system correctly but still carry two debts: hand-drawn inline SVGs (~6 icons across 4 components) and hand-rolled interactive a11y (TabGroup keyboard nav, MethodCard accordion semantics).
+
+Animus's runtime was intentionally designed with headless library interop seams: data-*/aria-* attribute passthrough, selector aliases matching both ARIA and data-attribute conventions, className merging via asChild/asComponent, and ref composition via composeRefs(). These seams are proven in tests but unvalidated with an actual headless library.
+
+The competitive landscape confirms this architecture works: Panda CSS + Ark UI ships static extraction + headless composition in production (Chakra v3, Park UI). Animus's layered extraction model (`@layer base, variants, compounds, states`) provides a cascade contract that atomic approaches (Panda, Tailwind) lack.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Replace inline SVGs with lucide-react icons across CopyButton, Heading, SyntaxBlock, ChainStep
+- Validate ark-ui composition via a TabGroup → Ark Tabs spike
+- Document recommended composition patterns (asChild + selector aliases as default)
+- Migrate TabGroup and MethodCard to ark-ui if spike passes
+- Maintain stable consumer APIs — no breaking changes to component props
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Building a createIcon factory or icon system abstraction
+- Modifying the extraction pipeline or Rust crate
+- Exposing ark-ui primitives as public API (they're internal implementation details)
+- Pre-emptively wrapping ark-ui components we don't need yet (Dialog, Popover, etc.)
+- Adding new selector aliases for ark-ui attributes (evaluate after spike)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: lucide-react for icons
+
+**Choice:** Import individual lucide-react icons within component files. No re-export layer, no icon registry.
+
+**Why:** ~15 icons needed. A createIcon factory or centralized icon system is infrastructure for a need that doesn't exist. lucide-react tree-shakes per-icon via named imports. Icons are implementation details of the components that use them — CopyButton exports `<CopyButton>`, not `<CopyIcon>`.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- Custom SVG sprite sheet — overhead for 15 icons, no tree-shaking benefit
+- @iconify/react — larger API surface, more config, same end result
+- Keep inline SVGs — doesn't scale, 30+ lines per icon pair
+
+### Decision 2: asChild as recommended composition path
+
+**Choice:** Use `asChild` as the default way to compose Animus ds elements with ark-ui primitives. Document `asComponent` and `as` as escape hatches.
+
+**Why:** asChild provides the cleanest prop boundary — Animus variant/state props never conflict with headless component props because they're on different elements in the JSX tree. The Animus element extracts normally; asChild merges its resolved classes onto the headless child.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- asComponent — works, but prop shapes must be compatible. Viable when the headless component's props are known and non-conflicting. Document as escape hatch.
+- as prop — runtime polymorphism, least type-safe. Good for one-off overrides.
+- All three are polymorphism — the choice is ergonomic, not functional.
+
+### Decision 3: Selector aliases as recommended state styling strategy
+
+**Choice:** Use existing selector aliases (`_expanded`, `_checked`, `_disabled`, etc.) to style ark-ui state changes. These already match both `[aria-expanded="true"]` and `[data-expanded]` conventions.
+
+**Why:** Works today, type-safe, covers common headless states. No extraction changes needed. Falls within established `@layer` cascade.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- Manual selectors (`'&[data-state="open"]'`) — works, verbose, use when no alias exists
+- data-state as variant key (`.variant({ prop: 'data-state' })`) — works via class reactivity (prop → class resolution each render, prop also passes through to DOM as data-attribute). More integrated but mechanism is less obvious. Document as advanced pattern after spike validates.
+
+### Decision 4: Convenience wrappers over exposed primitives
+
+**Choice:** Keep ark-ui primitives as internal implementation details behind the existing component APIs. TabGroup stays `<TabGroup tabs={[...]} activeTab="x" onChange={fn}>`, not `<Ark.Tabs.Root>`.
+
+**Why:** Consumer API stability. Components are used across showcase MDX pages. Exposing ark-ui primitives would leak the dependency and create a coupling that makes swapping headless libraries costly.
+
+### Decision 5: Spike-first for Track B
+
+**Choice:** Implement Track A (icons) first, then spike Track B (headless) with TabGroup only before committing to full migration.
+
+**Why:** Track A is zero-risk drop-in replacement. Track B architecture is proven (Panda+Ark) but Animus-specific extraction behavior needs validation. The spike answers: does className merging work end-to-end through extraction + asChild + ark-ui? One component proves or disproves the pattern.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[ark-ui bundle size]** → Mitigated by per-component deep imports (`@ark-ui/react/tabs`). Verify tree-shaking during spike.
+
+**[ark-ui API churn]** → ark-ui is pre-1.0. Pin version, wrap behind convenience components. If API changes, only wrapper internals change, not consumer code.
+
+**[TabGroup API delta]** → Ark Tabs uses `value`/`onValueChange` internally. Current TabGroup uses `activeTab`/`onChange`. Wrapper absorbs the mapping. Zero consumer-facing change.
+
+**[HMR new-file gap]** → New files with Animus components require dev server restart (known issue since session 50). Creating new wrapper files during implementation will hit this. Accept and restart.
+
+**[compose() + headless context]** → compose() uses Animus's context mechanism for shared variant propagation. ark-ui has its own React context. These could conflict in deeper integrations (e.g., composed families wrapping multiple ark-ui parts). Scoped to future concern — current components use compose() OR ark-ui, not both simultaneously.

+## Why
+
+The doc primitives (sessions 54-55) use ~6 inline SVG icons across CopyButton, Heading, ChainStep, and SyntaxBlock. These work but don't scale — adding new doc components means hand-drawing SVGs each time. Separately, interactive patterns like MethodCard's accordion and TabGroup's tabs would benefit from headless UI primitives (ark-ui) for reduced a11y maintenance — panel association, focus trapping, and ARIA state management that we currently hand-roll.
+
+Animus's interop seams — data-*/aria-* attribute passthrough, selector aliases targeting both ARIA and data-attribute conventions, polymorphic rendering via asChild/asComponent — were intentionally designed for headless library composition. Session 55's polish pass validated the component-level patterns (.states(), compose(), selector aliases). This change validates the external integration boundary.
+
+### Competitive Grounding
+
+Animus shares the same **integration seam** as Panda+Ark (build-time extraction + headless data-attributes + polymorphic rendering) but uses a fundamentally different **extraction model**. The distinction matters:
+
+- **Panda CSS**: token-in, atomic-class-out. CSS is flat utilities. No cascade contract.
+- **Animus**: builder-chain-in, layered-component-CSS-out. CSS preserves cascade structure (`@layer base, variants, compounds, states`). Human-readable, debuggable, deterministic specificity.
+
+This layered extraction is Animus's moat for headless composition: attribute selectors and state styles land in specific cascade layers with predictable override behavior, rather than competing in a flat atomic specificity space.
+
+```
+                    EXTRACTION          HEADLESS     CSS OUTPUT         COMPOSITION
+Animus + Ark        Rust AST/build      ark-ui       layered/semantic   asChild / asComponent / as
+Panda + Ark         codegen/build       ark-ui       atomic/flat        asChild
+Vanilla Extract     codegen/build       any          scoped/flat        className merge
+shadcn + Radix      Tailwind            Radix        atomic/flat        asChild + cn()
+StyleX (Meta)       compiler/build      any          atomic/determ.     className merge
+CSS Modules + any   scoped/build        any          scoped/flat        className merge
+```
+
+Notable: Radix has a known data-state collision issue (GitHub #2096) when multiple primitives target the same element. Animus avoids this entirely — `.states()` produces CSS classes (`ComponentName--stateName`), not data-state attributes. Orthogonal mechanisms, no collision possible.
+
+**Why Animus over alternatives for headless integration:**
+- **vs Panda+Ark**: Cascade contract — state selectors land in `@layer states`, variants in `@layer variants`. Predictable overrides without specificity wars. `.extend()` for customization without forking source.
+- **vs shadcn+Radix**: Abstraction over ownership. shadcn's copy-paste model gives full control but no extraction guarantees. Animus trades source ownership for cascade predictability and type-safe builder chains. The tradeoff is explicit: you get guarantees, you give up forking.
+- **vs Vanilla Extract**: Similar scoped extraction, but Animus's builder chain produces layered CSS with variant/state/compound separation. VE recipes are flat.
+
+## What Changes
+
+### Track A — Icon System (lucide-react)
+
+**Decision: lucide-react.** Pragmatic, tree-shakeable, 1400+ icons, zero design work. Not building a createIcon factory — that's infrastructure for a need that doesn't exist (showcase needs ~15 icons, not an icon system).
+
+- Add `lucide-react` to showcase dependencies
+- Replace inline SVGs in CopyButton (copy/check), Heading (link/check), SyntaxBlock (chevron), ChainStep (arrow connectors)
+- Convention: import individual icons within the component file that uses them. The component's public API stays the same (e.g., `<CopyButton>` not `<CopyButton icon={Check}>`). lucide is an implementation detail, not a public dependency.
+- Icons use `currentColor` + size props; Animus parent controls color via tokens.
+
+~15 icons total across existing components.
+
+### Track B — Headless Composition (ark-ui)
+
+**Recommended default: `asChild` for composition, selector aliases for styling headless state.** Other paths are valid escape hatches documented below.
+
+#### Composition (how styles meet behavior)
+
+- **asChild** (recommended): Animus component delegates rendering to headless child. Extracted classes merge onto the child element. Cleanest prop boundary — no prop conflicts between Animus variant props and headless component props.
+- **asComponent**: Animus wraps the headless component directly. Tighter coupling, single component tree. Use when prop shapes are known-compatible.
+- **as** prop: Runtime polymorphism. Simplest but least type-safe. Use for one-off overrides.
+
+#### Styling headless state (how Animus reacts to ark-ui's data-state)
+
+1. **Selector aliases** (recommended default) — `_expanded`, `_checked`, `_disabled` etc. already match both `[aria-expanded="true"]` AND `[data-expanded]` conventions. Works today, type-safe, pre-defined set covers common headless states.
+
+2. **Manual selectors** — `'&[data-state="open"]': { opacity: 1 }` in `.styles()`. Works today. Verbose but explicit, targets any attribute. Use when no alias exists.
+
+3. **data-state as variant key** — `.variant({ prop: 'data-state', variants: { open: {...}, closed: {...} } })`. This works via class reactivity, not attribute selectors: extraction emits `.Component--data-state-open { ... }` (class), and the runtime resolves the variant prop to the correct class each render. The prop also passes through to the DOM as `data-state="open"` (data-* passthrough). The class handles styling; the attribute handles interop. Both update each React render cycle. Specificity sits in `@layer variants`, independent of the DOM attribute. **More integrated but less obvious — document as advanced pattern after spike validates.**
+
+#### Spike scope
+
+1. Add `@ark-ui/react` to showcase dependencies
+2. Test with ONE component: TabGroup → Ark Tabs
+   - Verify className merging works via asChild
+   - Verify extraction produces correct CSS with headless child
+   - Test selector aliases + data-state variant key strategies
+   - Confirm ark-ui tree-shakes properly (`@ark-ui/react/tabs`)
+   - Document migration: TabGroup's `activeTab`/`onChange` → Ark Tabs' `value`/`onValueChange`. Consumer API should remain stable — changes absorbed in the wrapper.
+3. If spike passes: migrate TabGroup fully, then MethodCard → Ark Accordion
+4. If spike reveals issues: document where the boundary is, keep hand-rolled implementations
+
+#### What we gain (and don't)
+
+The hand-rolled TabGroup already has keyboard nav (ArrowLeft/Right, Home/End, wrap-around) and roving tabindex. What ark-ui adds:
+- **Panel association** (aria-controls/aria-labelledby linking between tab and panel) — currently missing
+- **Focus management** beyond our hand-rolled version (focus trapping, restoration)
+- **Maintenance reduction** — stop maintaining a11y code, delegate to a library that tracks WAI-ARIA spec changes
+- For MethodCard → Accordion: proper multi-expand control, animated height transitions
+
+**Components that benefit from headless migration:**
+- TabGroup → Ark Tabs
+- MethodCard → Ark Accordion
+- Future: Dialog, Popover, Menu, Tooltip (as needed, not pre-emptively)
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `icon-convention`: lucide-react import pattern for showcase icons
+- `headless-composition`: documented strategies for composing Animus ds elements with ark-ui primitives (recommended defaults + escape hatches)
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `doc-atoms`: CopyButton icons → lucide
+- `doc-interactive`: TabGroup potential ark-ui migration, ChainStep icons → lucide
+- `doc-reference`: MethodCard potential ark-ui Accordion migration
+- `markdown-renderer`: Heading icons → lucide, SyntaxBlock icons → lucide
+
+## Impact
+
+- **New dependencies**: `lucide-react` (Track A), `@ark-ui/react` (Track B)
+- **Risk**: LOW for Track A (drop-in icon replacement). LOW for Track B — integration seam is proven (Panda+Ark ships this in production), extraction is unaffected (sees builder chains, not runtime composition), data-state collision is impossible (orthogonal mechanisms).
+- **Consumer API**: No breaking changes. TabGroup/MethodCard maintain their current props interfaces. Ark-ui state management is absorbed in the convenience wrapper.
+- **Extraction**: Polymorphic rendering (asChild/asComponent) keeps ds elements as normal extraction targets. The Rust extractor sees builder chains in source; it never encounters the headless component. No pipeline changes required.
+- **Interop seams used**: data-*/aria-* passthrough (runtime/index.ts L152-154), selector aliases (selectors.ts), className merge via `.filter(Boolean).join(' ')` (runtime/index.ts L114-116), composeRefs for ref merging (runtime/index.ts L26-33)
+- **Known limitation**: New files with Animus components require dev server restart (HMR gap, known since session 50)
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- Should headless primitives be exposed through compose() families or kept as internal implementation details behind convenience wrappers? (Note: compose() uses Animus's context mechanism; ark-ui has its own. Potential conflict surface for deeper integrations.)
+- For future components beyond showcase (Dialog, Popover), should Animus provide pre-composed ark-ui wrappers or let consumers compose directly?
+- Should we add new selector aliases for ark-ui-specific data attributes (e.g., `_open` → `[data-state="open"]`) to complement existing aliases?

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: asChild composes with ark-ui primitives
+Animus ds elements using `asChild` SHALL merge their resolved className onto ark-ui child elements, preserving both Animus extracted styles and ark-ui behavior (ARIA attributes, event handlers, data-state management).
+
+#### Scenario: asChild merges classes onto Ark Tabs trigger
+- **WHEN** an Animus ds element renders with `asChild` wrapping an `<Ark.Tabs.Trigger>`
+- **THEN** the rendered DOM element has both the Animus extracted class and ark-ui's ARIA/data attributes
+

+
+#### Scenario: _expanded targets ark-ui expanded state
+- **WHEN** an ark-ui accordion item is in expanded state (sets `data-expanded` or `aria-expanded="true"`)
+- **THEN** Animus styles using `_expanded: { ... }` apply to the element
+
+### Requirement: data-state variant key works via class reactivity
+When a variant is defined with `prop: 'data-state'`, the runtime SHALL resolve the variant class from the prop value AND pass the `data-state` attribute through to the DOM. Both mechanisms update each React render cycle.
+
+#### Scenario: data-state variant resolves correct class
+- **WHEN** a component has `.variant({ prop: 'data-state', variants: { open: {...}, closed: {...} } })` and receives `data-state="open"` as a prop
+- **THEN** the element receives both the class `Component--data-state-open` and the DOM attribute `data-state="open"`

+### Requirement: Convenience wrappers hide headless internals
+Components using ark-ui internally SHALL maintain their existing consumer-facing props API. ark-ui's concepts (parts, data-state values, internal context) MUST NOT leak through the wrapper.
+
+#### Scenario: TabGroup API unchanged after ark-ui migration
+- **WHEN** a consumer renders `<TabGroup tabs={['A','B']} activeTab="A" onChange={fn} />`
+- **THEN** the component accepts and works with the same props as the hand-rolled version
+
+### Requirement: Extraction unaffected by headless composition
+The Rust extraction pipeline SHALL continue to produce correct CSS for ds elements that compose with headless primitives via asChild/asComponent. No extraction pipeline changes required.
+
+#### Scenario: Extraction produces correct CSS for asChild component
+- **WHEN** extraction processes a file containing `<StyledTab asChild><Ark.Tabs.Trigger>...</Ark.Tabs.Trigger></StyledTab>`

+## Context
+
+Animus emits CSS across three nameable surfaces: `@layer` declarations, CSS custom properties (`--`), and class names. The `prefix` option in the Vite plugin already namespaces variables and classes, but `@layer` names are hardcoded strings in both Rust (`css_generator.rs`) and TS (`assemble-stylesheet.ts`). This creates an incomplete namespace boundary — a consumer using `prefix: 'acme'` gets `--acme-color-primary` but still emits bare `@layer base`, risking collision with other CSS on the page.
+
+The 7 Animus layers (`global`, `base`, `variants`, `compounds`, `states`, `system`, `custom`) are defined as `ANIMUS_LAYERS` in `extract/pipeline/assemble-stylesheet.ts` and hardcoded as string literals in three Rust functions: `generate_css()`, `generate_sheets_from_slice()`, and `generate_utility_css_impl()`.
+
+The existing `layers?: string[]` plugin option allows consumers to interleave their own layer names around the Animus layers, with `validateLayerOrder()` enforcing relative order. This composability must be preserved.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Single `prefix` config controls all three emission surfaces (layers, vars, classes)
+- Use dash-prefixed flat layers (`acme-base`) for layer prefixing
+- Compose cleanly with existing `layers[]` custom ordering — consumer layers stay unprefixed
+- Zero behavioral change when `prefix` is not set (default)
+- Layer prefixing applied at emission time — internal representations stay bare
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Separate `layerPrefix` config distinct from `prefix` — one knob, not two
+- Dot-notation sublayers (`acme.base`) — they prevent interleaving with other frameworks' layers
+- Prefixing consumer-provided layer names in the `layers[]` array — those are the consumer's namespace
+- Runtime layer name resolution — this is purely a build-time CSS transform
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Dash-prefix flat layers over dot-notation sublayers
+
+**Choice:** `@layer acme-base` not `@layer acme.base`
+
+**Rationale:** CSS dot-notation sublayers (`acme.base`) create a parent layer `acme` that contains all Animus layers. This prevents interleaving Animus layers with other frameworks' layers — any layer inserted between `acme.global` and `acme.base` must also be a sublayer of `acme`, which is not the case for Tailwind's `@layer base` or other third-party layers. Dash-prefixed flat layers are plain `@layer` names that sit at the same level as any other layer, enabling arbitrary interleaving in the `layers[]` config.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Dot-notation sublayers (`acme.base`). Provides native CSS hierarchy semantics and cascade containment, but the sublayer boundary prevents consumers from interleaving non-Animus layers between Animus layers — a common need when compositing with frameworks like Tailwind.
+
+**Trade-off acknowledged:** Flat dash-prefixed layers lose the automatic cascade containment of sublayers. Consumer overrides from unlayered CSS still win (unlayered CSS outranks any `@layer`), but consumers who use `@layer` for their own overrides must place their layer after the relevant Animus layers explicitly.
+
+### 2. Prefix applied at two boundaries: Rust emission + TS assembly
+
+**Choice:** Thread prefix through both the Rust NAPI calls and the TS `assembleStylesheet()` / `applyPrefix()` functions.
+
+**Rationale:** CSS is emitted from two places: Rust generates per-component sheets (with `@layer X {` wrappers), and TS assembles the final stylesheet (with the `@layer` declaration line and global CSS). Both need to know the prefix.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Apply prefix only in TS post-processing via `applyPrefix()` regex. Rejected — `applyPrefix()` only receives variable JSON/CSS, never `componentCss` or `globalCss`. Adding `@layer` regex handling would be dead code. All `@layer` emissions pass through controlled paths (Rust generators + TS assembly) that have direct prefix awareness.
+
+### 3. `layers[]` is the actual `@layer` declaration — consumer writes final CSS names
+
+**Choice:** When `prefix` is set, the consumer writes prefixed Animus names in `layers[]`: `['base', 'acme-global', 'acme-base', ...]`. `validateLayerOrder(layers, prefix?)` checks for `{prefix}-{name}` as the required subsequence. Names are emitted as-is — no silent transformation.
+
+**Rationale:** When composing with other frameworks (Tailwind emits `@layer base`), the consumer needs to see and control the full cascade topology. The config must match what appears in CSS devtools. A bare `'base'` in the config is ambiguous — is it TW's base or Animus's? Writing `'acme-base'` eliminates that ambiguity.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Consumer writes bare Animus names, prefix applied silently at emission. Simpler config but the config doesn't match CSS output, making cascade debugging harder when multiple frameworks share layer names.
+
+### 4. `ANIMUS_LAYERS` stays bare
+
+**Choice:** The `ANIMUS_LAYERS` constant remains `['global', 'base', 'variants', ...]` without prefix. A new helper function `prefixLayerName(name, prefix?)` handles the transform.
+
+**Rationale:** The constant is the source of truth for layer identity, not presentation. Keeping it bare means validation, ordering logic, and structured sheet field names don't need to change.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Layer interleaving requirement]** → Consumers who adopt `prefix` and use custom `layers[]` must write the full dash-prefixed Animus names (`acme-base`) rather than bare names. This is more explicit config but correctly reflects what appears in CSS devtools. Mitigation: document the naming convention in the `prefix` option's JSDoc and in any migration guide.
+
+**[Hardcoded Rust strings]** → Three Rust functions have hardcoded `@layer` string literals. Threading a prefix parameter through is straightforward but touches hot paths in the extractor. Mitigation: the prefix is an `Option<String>` — when `None`, the existing hardcoded strings are used unchanged, so the default path has zero overhead.
+
+**[Regex-based TS prefixing]** → `prefix.ts` uses regex to transform CSS variable names. Extending it to also handle `@layer` names adds regex complexity. Mitigation: layer names are a closed, known set (`ANIMUS_LAYERS`), so the regex can be precise rather than general-purpose.

+## Why
+
+Bare `@layer` names like `base`, `variants`, `states` are generic enough to collide with other CSS on the page or other design systems. CSS variables and class names already support a `prefix` option, but layer names are hardcoded — meaning a consumer using `prefix: 'acme'` still emits unprotected `@layer base`. This gap makes the prefix feature incomplete: two of three emission surfaces are namespaced, one isn't.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Extend `prefix` to namespace `@layer` declarations** using dash-prefixed flat layers. `prefix: 'acme'` produces `@layer acme-base, acme-variants, ...` instead of `@layer base, variants, ...`. Flat dash-prefixed names allow interleaving with other frameworks' layers without sublayer containment constraints.
+- **Layer prefixing composes with custom `layers[]` ordering.** When `prefix` is set, consumers write actual CSS names in their config: `['base', 'acme-global', 'acme-base', ...]`. This enables coexistence with frameworks like Tailwind that also emit `@layer base`. Validation checks for prefixed Animus names as the required subsequence.
+- **Rust extractor accepts layer prefix parameter.** Hardcoded `@layer` string literals in `css_generator.rs` become parameterized, accepting an optional prefix from the NAPI boundary.
+- **TS pipeline applies layer prefix at assembly time.** `assembleStylesheet()` gains layer-awareness. `applyPrefix()` unchanged — layer prefixing is handled at emission points, not via post-process regex.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `layer-namespace-prefix`: CSS `@layer` dash-prefix namespaced layer naming — transforms bare layer names to `{prefix}-{name}` at emission time, composes with custom layer ordering, applied in both Rust (per-component sheets) and TS (final assembly)
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `extraction-emitter-config`: The existing `prefix` option gains layer-prefixing behavior (currently only affects vars + classes)
+- `theme-variable-emission`: Layer declaration line in variable CSS output must respect prefix
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Rust crate** (`extract/src/css_generator.rs`): `generate_css()`, `generate_sheets_from_slice()`, `generate_utility_css()`, `generate_custom_prop_css()` — thread `layer_prefix` param through all `@layer` emission points via `prefix_layer()` helper
+- **Rust crate** (`extract/src/project_analyzer.rs`): `analyze()` threads `layer_prefix` to all CSS generation call sites including variants sublayer wrapper
+- **TS pipeline** (`extract/pipeline/assemble-stylesheet.ts`): `prefixLayerName()` helper, `buildLayerDeclaration()`, `validateLayerOrder(layers, prefix?)` prefix-aware validation
+- **Vite plugin** (`vite-plugin/src/index.ts`): Prefix `@layer global {` wrapper, pass prefix to `assembleStylesheet()` and `validateLayerOrder()`
+- **NAPI boundary** (`extract/src/lib.rs`): Derive `layer_prefix` from prefix param, pass to `analyze()`
+- **No breaking changes**: Default behavior (no prefix) is unchanged. This is purely additive.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Configurable emitter paths
+The Rust `transform_emitter.rs` SHALL accept an `EmitterConfig` struct specifying the runtime import source and CSS module ID. When no config is provided, the emitter SHALL use default values (`@animus-ui/system` and `virtual:animus/styles.css`). The `analyze_project()` function SHALL additionally accept an optional `prefix` parameter that is threaded to all CSS generation functions for layer, variable, and class name prefixing.
+
+#### Scenario: Default emitter config
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` is called without emitter config (or with null)
+- **THEN** `transform_file()` SHALL emit `import { createComponent } from '@animus-ui/system'` and `import 'virtual:animus/styles.css'`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom emitter config for Next.js
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` is called with `emitter_config_json: '{"runtime_import":"@animus-ui/system","css_module_id":".animus/styles.css"}'`
+- **THEN** `transform_file()` SHALL emit `import { createComponent } from '@animus-ui/system'` and `import '.animus/styles.css'`
+
+#### Scenario: Emitter config persists in manifest
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` receives an emitter config
+- **THEN** the returned manifest JSON SHALL include the emitter config so that `transform_file()` can read it without additional parameters
+
+#### Scenario: Prefix parameter threads to CSS generation
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` is called with `prefix: Some("acme")`
+- **THEN** all CSS generation functions (`generate_css`, `generate_sheets_from_slice`, `generate_utility_css_impl`) SHALL receive the prefix and apply it to `@layer` names, CSS variable names, and class name prefixes
+
+#### Scenario: No prefix parameter (default)
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` is called without a prefix (or with `None`)
+- **THEN** CSS generation SHALL use default unprefixed layer names and the `animus` class prefix
+
+### Requirement: EmitterConfig struct
+The `EmitterConfig` struct SHALL have two fields: `runtime_import` (String) and `css_module_id` (String). It SHALL be deserializable from JSON via serde.
+
+#### Scenario: Struct deserialization
+- **WHEN** the JSON `{"runtime_import":"@animus-ui/system","css_module_id":".animus/styles.css"}` is deserialized
+- **THEN** the resulting `EmitterConfig` SHALL have `runtime_import = "@animus-ui/system"` and `css_module_id = ".animus/styles.css"`

+
+#### Scenario: Prefixed layer declaration
+- **WHEN** `prefix` is set to `'acme'`
+- **THEN** the CSS layer declaration SHALL be `@layer acme-global, acme-base, acme-variants, acme-compounds, acme-states, acme-system, acme-custom;`
+
+#### Scenario: Prefixed layer block wrappers
+- **WHEN** `prefix` is set to `'acme'` and a component has base styles
+- **THEN** the component's CSS SHALL be wrapped in `@layer acme-base { ... }` instead of `@layer base { ... }`
+
+#### Scenario: No prefix (default behavior unchanged)
+- **WHEN** `prefix` is not set
+- **THEN** the CSS layer declaration SHALL be `@layer global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom;` (unchanged from current behavior)
+
+### Requirement: Rust extractor accepts layer prefix parameter
+The Rust `generate_css()`, `generate_sheets_from_slice()`, and `generate_utility_css_impl()` functions SHALL accept an optional `layer_prefix` parameter. When provided, all `@layer` emissions SHALL use `{prefix}-{name}` notation.
+
+#### Scenario: Rust generate_css with prefix
+- **WHEN** `generate_css()` is called with `layer_prefix = Some("acme")`
+- **THEN** the output SHALL contain `@layer acme-global, acme-base, acme-variants, acme-compounds, acme-states, acme-system, acme-custom;` and all `@layer X {` blocks SHALL use prefixed names
+
+#### Scenario: Rust generate_css without prefix
+- **WHEN** `generate_css()` is called with `layer_prefix = None`
+- **THEN** the output SHALL be identical to current behavior with bare layer names
+
+#### Scenario: Rust generate_sheets_from_slice with prefix
+- **WHEN** `generate_sheets_from_slice()` is called with `layer_prefix = Some("acme")`
+- **THEN** the `declaration` field of `CssSheets` SHALL contain prefixed layer names and all per-layer CSS strings SHALL use prefixed `@layer` wrappers
+
+### Requirement: TS assembly applies layer prefix
+The `assembleStylesheet()` function SHALL accept an optional `prefix` parameter. When provided, it SHALL prefix all Animus layer names in the declaration line and in `@layer X {` block wrappers throughout the assembled CSS.
+
+#### Scenario: assembleStylesheet with prefix
+- **WHEN** `assembleStylesheet()` is called with `prefix: 'acme'`
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL contain `@layer acme-global, acme-base, ...;` and all layer block wrappers SHALL use prefixed names
+
+#### Scenario: assembleStylesheet without prefix
+- **WHEN** `assembleStylesheet()` is called without a prefix
+- **THEN** the output SHALL be identical to current behavior
+
+### Requirement: Custom layer ordering composes with prefix
+When both `layers` and `prefix` are provided, the `layers` array SHALL contain the actual CSS layer names — consumers write `{prefix}-{name}` for Animus layers. `validateLayerOrder(layers, prefix)` SHALL check for prefixed Animus names as the required subsequence. Layer names are emitted as-is with no silent transformation.
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer layers interleaved with prefix
+- **WHEN** `prefix` is `'acme'` and `layers` is `['reset', 'acme-global', 'acme-base', 'acme-variants', 'acme-compounds', 'acme-states', 'acme-system', 'acme-custom', 'overrides']`
+- **THEN** the declaration SHALL be `@layer reset, acme-global, acme-base, acme-variants, acme-compounds, acme-states, acme-system, acme-custom, overrides;`
+
+#### Scenario: Framework coexistence (e.g. Tailwind)
+- **WHEN** `prefix` is `'acme'` and `layers` is `['base', 'acme-global', 'acme-base', 'acme-variants', 'acme-compounds', 'acme-states', 'acme-system', 'acme-custom', 'utilities']`
+- **THEN** the declaration SHALL be `@layer base, acme-global, acme-base, acme-variants, acme-compounds, acme-states, acme-system, acme-custom, utilities;` (TW's bare `base` and Animus's `acme-base` coexist)
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer layers without prefix
+- **WHEN** `prefix` is not set and `layers` is `['reset', 'global', 'base', 'variants', 'compounds', 'states', 'system', 'custom', 'overrides']`
+- **THEN** the declaration SHALL be `@layer reset, global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom, overrides;` (unchanged behavior)
+
+### Requirement: applyPrefix unchanged — layer prefixing at emission points
+The `applyPrefix()` function in `extract/pipeline/prefix.ts` SHALL NOT be modified for `@layer` handling. Layer name prefixing is handled at emission points: Rust CSS generators apply `prefix_layer()` to all `@layer` block wrappers, and `assembleStylesheet()` applies `prefixLayerName()` to the default layer declaration. `applyPrefix()` continues to handle only CSS variables and class names.
+
+#### Scenario: applyPrefix does not transform layer names
+- **WHEN** `applyPrefix('acme', ...)` is called with CSS variable data
+- **THEN** the function SHALL transform `--color-*` and `var(--color-*)` as before, with no `@layer` handling (its inputs never contain `@layer` content)

+## Context
+
+`compose()` creates sealed component families with shared variant propagation. It currently accepts a `context: boolean` option — `false` (default) uses CSS descendant selectors, `true` adds React context for portal-crossing. The implementation imports `createContext`/`useContext` unconditionally at module scope, poisoning the entire `@animus-ui/system` package for React Server Components.
+
+The extraction pipeline replaces `compose()` calls with `createComposedFamily()` at build time. But a use-after-drain bug in `project_analyzer.rs` causes `compose_replacements` to always be empty — compose calls are never actually replaced in production builds.
+
+**Current module graph (all paths lead to createContext):**
+```
+@animus-ui/system (barrel)
+  └─ index.js → createComposedFamily-USB1a_4O.js (shared chunk)

+- Barrel (`@animus-ui/system`) and runtime entry (`/runtime`) MUST be RSC-safe — zero `createContext`/`useContext` in their transitive import graph
+- Default `compose()` MUST be RSC-safe — CSS-only propagation, no hooks
+- Context-based composition MUST be an explicit opt-in via a separate function and import path
+- The extraction pipeline MUST correctly replace both `compose()` and `composeWithContext()` calls
+- The drain bug MUST be fixed so compose replacements actually appear in manifests
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Making `composeWithContext` itself RSC-safe (it's inherently client-only — that's the point)
+- Changing the CSS cascade propagation model (unchanged)
+- Modifying the Vite plugin or Next plugin emitter config JSON (derive compose-context path from runtime_import)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Declarative function split over config flag
+
+**Choice:** Two functions (`compose` / `composeWithContext`) instead of one function with `context: boolean`.
+
+**Why:** RSC safety is a module-level property. A runtime config flag cannot create a module boundary. The function name IS the opt-in — you import from the safe path or the client path. No ambiguity, no accidental poisoning.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Keep `context` flag, lazy-require createContext inside the function body. Rejected because `require()` in ESM is non-standard, behaves differently across bundlers, and doesn't communicate intent at the call site.
+
+### 2. Separate subpath export for composeWithContext
+
+**Choice:** `@animus-ui/system/compose-with-context` is a dedicated entry point with `'use client'`. Not re-exported from the barrel.
+
+**Why:** If the barrel re-exports from a `'use client'` module, tsdown may inline the client code into the barrel chunk, re-poisoning it. Keeping client-only code out of the barrel's transitive graph is the only reliable defense. The subpath name makes the boundary visible.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Re-export from barrel with `sideEffects: false` for tree-shaking. Rejected because RSC module analysis in Next.js runs before tree-shaking — the import graph includes all re-exports regardless of usage.
+
+### 3. Extraction runtime split mirrors authoring split
+
+**Choice:** `createComposedFamily` (context-free, in runtime) and `createComposedFamilyWithContext` (context-aware, in compose-with-context module).
+
+**Why:** The extraction replacement must preserve the RSC boundary. If `compose()` is replaced with a function from the RSC-safe runtime, the file stays RSC-safe. If `composeWithContext()` is replaced, the emitter imports from the client module and injects `'use client'`.
+
+### 4. Derive compose_context_import from runtime_import
+
+**Choice:** `apply_replacements` derives the compose-context import path by stripping the subpath from `runtime_import` and appending `/compose-with-context`. No new EmitterConfig field needed.
+
+**Why:** Both hosts (Vite: `@animus-ui/system`, Next: `@animus-ui/system/runtime`) share the same base package. Deriving keeps the emitter config stable and avoids NAPI signature changes.
+
+**Derivation:** `@animus-ui/system/runtime` → `@animus-ui/system` → `@animus-ui/system/compose-with-context`.
+
+### 5. Fix drain bug by reordering, not cloning
+
+**Choice:** Move the `compose_replacements` build block before the cache storage loop in `project_analyzer.rs`.
+
+**Why:** The cache loop drains `per_file_compose` via `.remove()`. Moving the build block before the drain is a one-line structural fix. Cloning the map would work but wastes memory for no reason.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Breaking change: `context` option removed]** → Mitigated by the fact that `context: true` was introduced in the same session as compose and has no known external consumers. Internal tests are the only migration.
+
+**[Barrel could be re-poisoned by future changes]** → Mitigated by the structural rule: no `'use client'` module may be re-exported from the barrel. This is enforced by the subpath-only pattern for client code. A CI check could verify barrel RSC safety (future work).
+
+**[tsdown chunk deduplication could merge modules]** → Risk: tsdown might merge `createComposedFamily` back into a chunk with client code. Mitigated by ensuring `createComposedFamily.ts` has zero transitive imports that touch hooks. After the fix, its only React imports are `forwardRef` and `createElement`.
+
+**[Scanner must match both function names]** → Risk: consumer aliases `composeWithContext as cwc` would evade detection. Accepted: the scanner already requires literal `compose` as the callee name. Renaming via import alias is an unsupported pattern (same as existing compose).

+## Why
+
+Every `@animus-ui/system` entry point — barrel, runtime, compose — transitively imports `createContext` and `useContext` from React at module scope. React Server Components treat module-level hook/context imports as client-only signals. This means **no Animus component can render in an RSC** without a `'use client'` boundary, even components that never use context. The `context: boolean` config flag on `compose()` cannot enforce an RSC boundary because RSC analysis is static (module-level imports), not runtime (code path analysis).
+
+Additionally, the Rust extraction pipeline has a use-after-drain bug: `per_file_compose` is emptied by the cache storage loop before `compose_replacements` is built, so `compose_replacements` is always empty in production manifests. Compose calls are never replaced.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Split `compose()` into two functions at the module boundary**: `compose()` (RSC-safe, CSS-only propagation) and `composeWithContext()` (explicit `'use client'` module, React context propagation). The function you call determines the RSC boundary — no config flag needed.
+- **Strip `createContext`/`useContext` from `compose.ts` and `runtime/createComposedFamily.ts`**: These modules become RSC-safe. Only `forwardRef` and `createElement` remain.
+- **New module `composeWithContext.ts`** with `'use client'` directive: exports both the authoring function (`composeWithContext`) and the extraction runtime shim (`createComposedFamilyWithContext`).
+- **New subpath export `@animus-ui/system/compose-with-context`**: Explicit opt-in to client-only composition. The barrel and runtime entry stay RSC-safe.
+- **Fix use-after-drain bug in `project_analyzer.rs`**: Move `compose_replacements` build before the cache storage loop that drains `per_file_compose`.
+- **Update Rust scanner to detect both `compose` and `composeWithContext` call sites**: `composeWithContext` forces `context: true` at scan time.
+- **Update transform emitter**: `compose()` → `createComposedFamily` (from runtime, RSC-safe). `composeWithContext()` → `createComposedFamilyWithContext` (from compose-with-context subpath, + `'use client'` injection).
+- **BREAKING**: The `context` option on `compose()` is removed. Consumers using `compose({...}, { context: true })` must switch to `composeWithContext()`.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `compose-rsc-module-safety`: RSC-safe module boundary enforcement for compose — covers the module split, subpath exports, scanner detection, emitter routing, and the drain bug fix.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `compose-slot-composition`: The `context` option is removed from `compose()`. `composeWithContext` becomes the explicit context path. Shared config and CSS cascade behavior unchanged.
+- `extraction-emitter-config`: Emitter derives `compose_context_import` path from `runtime_import` for `createComposedFamilyWithContext` injection.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`@animus-ui/system`**: `compose.ts` loses `'use client'` + context code. New `composeWithContext.ts` file. `runtime/createComposedFamily.ts` stripped of context code. New subpath in `package.json`. New tsdown entry point.
+- **`@animus-ui/extract`**: `project_analyzer.rs` (drain fix + compose_replacements ordering), `jsx_scanner.rs` (detect `composeWithContext`), `transform_emitter.rs` (dual function names + compose-context import line), `lib.rs` (consumed_sources for both import paths).
+- **`@animus-ui/vite-plugin`** and **`@animus-ui/next-plugin`**: May need `compose_context_import` in emitter config (derivable from `runtime_import`, so optional).
+- **Tests**: `compose.test.tsx` context tests migrate to `composeWithContext`. Canary tests updated.
+- **Consumers**: Anyone using `compose({...}, { context: true })` must change to `composeWithContext()`. CSS-only `compose()` calls are unchanged.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: RSC-safe default entry points
+
+The barrel export (`@animus-ui/system`), runtime export (`@animus-ui/system/runtime`), and compose export (`@animus-ui/system/compose`) MUST NOT transitively import `createContext`, `useContext`, `useState`, `useEffect`, or any other React hook at module scope. These entry points SHALL be usable in React Server Components without a `'use client'` boundary.
+
+#### Scenario: Barrel import in RSC
+- **WHEN** a server component imports `{ createComponent }` from `@animus-ui/system`
+- **THEN** the module graph contains no RSC-banned API imports and the component renders on the server
+
+#### Scenario: Runtime import in RSC
+- **WHEN** an extracted component imports `{ createComponent, createComposedFamily }` from `@animus-ui/system/runtime`
+- **THEN** the module graph contains no RSC-banned API imports
+
+#### Scenario: Compose import in RSC
+- **WHEN** a server component imports `{ compose }` from `@animus-ui/system/compose`
+- **THEN** the module graph contains no RSC-banned API imports
+
+### Requirement: compose() is RSC-safe
+
+`compose()` SHALL use only `forwardRef` and `createElement` from React. It SHALL NOT import, reference, or conditionally invoke `createContext` or `useContext`. The `context` option SHALL NOT exist on `compose()`.
+
+#### Scenario: compose with CSS-only propagation
+- **WHEN** `compose({ Root, Child }, { shared: { size: true } })` is called
+- **THEN** the result contains `ForwardRefExoticComponent` wrappers with displayName set, no React context is created, and shared variant propagation relies on CSS descendant selectors
+
+#### Scenario: compose has no context option
+- **WHEN** a consumer passes `{ context: true }` to `compose()`
+- **THEN** TypeScript reports a type error (unknown property)
+
+### Requirement: composeWithContext is explicitly client-only
+
+`composeWithContext()` SHALL be exported from a module with a `'use client'` directive. It SHALL use `createContext` and `useContext` to propagate shared variant values through React context. It SHALL be importable from `@animus-ui/system/compose-with-context`.
+
+#### Scenario: composeWithContext with context propagation
+- **WHEN** `composeWithContext({ Root, Child }, { shared: { size: true } })` is called
+- **THEN** the Root wrapper provides shared values via React context, child wrappers consume via `useContext`, and direct props on children override context values
+
+#### Scenario: composeWithContext import path
+- **WHEN** a consumer imports `{ composeWithContext }` from `@animus-ui/system/compose-with-context`
+- **THEN** the import resolves to a module with `'use client'` and the bundler creates a client boundary
+
+### Requirement: createComposedFamily is RSC-safe
+
+The extraction runtime shim `createComposedFamily()` SHALL use only `forwardRef` and `createElement`. It SHALL NOT import `createContext` or `useContext`. It SHALL be exported from `@animus-ui/system/runtime`.
+
+#### Scenario: Extracted compose replacement in RSC
+- **WHEN** the extraction pipeline replaces `compose()` with `createComposedFamily()`
+- **THEN** the transformed file imports from `@animus-ui/system/runtime` and contains no RSC-banned APIs
+
+### Requirement: createComposedFamilyWithContext is client-only
+
+The extraction runtime shim `createComposedFamilyWithContext()` SHALL be exported from `@animus-ui/system/compose-with-context` (the same `'use client'` module as `composeWithContext`). It SHALL use `createContext` and `useContext`.
+
+#### Scenario: Extracted composeWithContext replacement
+- **WHEN** the extraction pipeline replaces `composeWithContext()` with `createComposedFamilyWithContext()`
+- **THEN** the transformed file imports from `@animus-ui/system/compose-with-context` and the emitter injects a `'use client'` directive
+
+### Requirement: Extraction scanner detects both compose functions
+
+The Rust scanner (`jsx_scanner.rs`) SHALL detect both `compose()` and `composeWithContext()` call expressions. When `composeWithContext` is the callee, the scanner SHALL set `context: true` on the `ComposeFamilyInfo` regardless of any options argument.
+
+#### Scenario: Scanner detects compose
+- **WHEN** source contains `const F = compose({ Root, Child }, { shared: { size: true } })`
+- **THEN** the scanner produces a `ComposeFamilyInfo` with `context: false`
+
+#### Scenario: Scanner detects composeWithContext
+- **WHEN** source contains `const F = composeWithContext({ Root, Child }, { shared: { size: true } })`
+- **THEN** the scanner produces a `ComposeFamilyInfo` with `context: true`
+
+### Requirement: Emitter routes to correct runtime function
+
+The transform emitter SHALL generate `createComposedFamily()` for `context: false` compose families and `createComposedFamilyWithContext()` for `context: true` families. The import source SHALL differ: runtime path for context-free, compose-with-context path for context-aware.
+
+#### Scenario: Emitter for context-free compose
+- **WHEN** a compose replacement has `context: false`
+- **THEN** the emitter generates `createComposedFamily({...}, { name: "..." })` and imports from the runtime module
+
+#### Scenario: Emitter for context-aware compose
+- **WHEN** a compose replacement has `context: true`
+- **THEN** the emitter generates `createComposedFamilyWithContext({...}, { name: "...", sharedKeys: [...] })` and imports from the compose-with-context module
+
+### Requirement: compose_replacements populated correctly
+
+The `compose_replacements` field in `UniverseManifest` SHALL be built from `per_file_compose` BEFORE the cache storage loop drains the map. The field SHALL contain one entry per `compose()` or `composeWithContext()` call in the project.
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest contains compose replacements
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject` processes a file with a `compose()` call
+- **THEN** the returned manifest JSON contains a non-empty `compose_replacements` array with the correct `file_path`, `slots`, `name`, `context`, and `shared_keys`
+
+#### Scenario: Cache drain does not affect replacements
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject` runs with file caching enabled
+- **THEN** `compose_replacements` is populated identically whether files are cache-hits or cache-misses

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Compose options configuration
+
+`compose()` SHALL accept a slots record and an options object with `shared` (variant propagation config) and optional `name` (display name prefix). The `context` option SHALL NOT exist on `compose()`. Context-based propagation SHALL be accessed via a separate `composeWithContext()` function.
+
+#### Scenario: compose with shared variants
+- **WHEN** `compose({ Root, Child }, { shared: { size: true }, name: "Card" })` is called

+
+`composeWithContext()` SHALL accept the same slots record and options shape as `compose()` (minus `context`). It SHALL create a React context for shared variant propagation.

+## Context
+
+The extraction pipeline replaces builder chains (`ds.styles()...asElement()`) with `createComponent()` calls. The `compose()` call is scanned for metadata (slots, shared keys, context flag) but the call itself survives into the transformed output. This drags `createContext`/`useContext` into every file that uses compose, breaking RSC.
+
+The `context: false` path in compose.ts (lines 85-88) is trivial — `forwardRef` + `createElement` passthrough per slot plus `displayName` assignment. This is already RSC-safe. The extraction pipeline just needs to emit it directly instead of leaving the `compose()` call intact.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Replace `compose()` calls in transformed output with `createComposedFamily()` — a thin runtime shim
+- `context: false` (default): shim uses only `forwardRef` + `createElement` — RSC-safe
+- `context: true`: shim uses `createContext` + `useContext`, file gets `'use client'` (existing mechanism)
+- Strip `compose` import from `@animus-ui/system` in transformed files (same as `animus` builder stripping)
+- Preserve existing TypeScript types — `ComposedFamily<Slots>` return type stays identical
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing the `compose()` source API or consumer call sites
+- Modifying how composed variant CSS is generated (that's already correct)
+- Handling dynamic slot maps (compose already requires static object literals)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Runtime Shim: `createComposedFamily`
+
+A new function in `@animus-ui/system/runtime` (or a dedicated compose-runtime module) that the transform emitter targets.
+
+**Signature:**
+```typescript
+function createComposedFamily(
+  slots: Record<string, ForwardRefExoticComponent<any>>,
+  config: {
+    name: string;
+    context: boolean;
+    sharedKeys: string[];
+  }
+): Record<string, ForwardRefExoticComponent<any>>
+```
+
+The emitter generates a call with the config pre-resolved from static analysis:
+
+```javascript
+// context: false — emitted replacement
+const Card = createComposedFamily(
+  { Root: CardRoot, Body: CardBody, Header: CardHeader },
+  { name: "Card", context: false, sharedKeys: ["size"] }
+);
+```
+
+```javascript
+// context: true — emitted replacement (file also gets 'use client')
+const Card = createComposedFamily(
+  { Root: CardRoot, Body: CardBody, Header: CardHeader },
+  { name: "Card", context: true, sharedKeys: ["size"] }
+);
+```
+
+The shim internally branches on `config.context`:
+- `false`: thin `forwardRef`/`createElement` wrappers, no hooks, no context — RSC-safe
+- `true`: `createContext`, `useContext`, Provider wrapping — requires client boundary
+
+**Why one function, not two:** The emitter already handles the `'use client'` injection via `use_client_files`. Having one function with a boolean flag keeps the replacement generation simple and avoids needing two import targets. The bundler tree-shakes the unused branch when `context` is a literal `false`.
+
+### 2. Span Capture in ComposeFamilyInfo
+
+`jsx_scanner.rs` already captures compose call metadata. Add a `span: (u32, u32)` field recording the byte range of the entire `compose(...)` call expression. This is what the transform emitter needs to splice the replacement.
+
+Current `ComposeFamilyInfo`:
+```rust
+pub struct ComposeFamilyInfo {
+    pub family_binding: Option<String>,
+    pub root_binding: String,
+    pub slots: Vec<(String, String)>,
+    pub shared_keys: Vec<String>,
+    pub context: bool,
+}
+```
+
+Add:
+```rust
+    pub span: (u32, u32),  // byte range of the compose() call expression
+```
+
+The span covers only the `compose(...)` call, not the `const Card =` assignment. The replacement splices the call expression itself, preserving the binding declaration.
+
+### 3. Replacement Generation in transform_emitter.rs
+
+New function `generate_compose_replacement`:
+
+```rust
+pub fn generate_compose_replacement(
+    family: &ComposeFamilyInfo,
+    // The class names of the slot components (from the manifest)
+    slot_class_names: &HashMap<String, String>,
+) -> String
+```
+
+Emits:
+```javascript
+createComposedFamily(
+  { Root: SlotRootBinding, Body: SlotBodyBinding },
+  { name: "FamilyName", context: false, sharedKeys: ["size", "tone"] }
+)
+```
+
+The slot bindings in the replacement reference the already-replaced `createComponent()` variables — compose replacement runs AFTER individual chain replacement.
+
+### 4. Import Injection
+
+The emitter already injects runtime imports. Add `createComposedFamily` to the import set when compose replacements exist:
+
+```javascript
+import { createComponent, createComposedFamily } from '@animus-ui/system/runtime';
+```
+
+For `context: true` families, the `createComposedFamily` import internally pulls `createContext`/`useContext`. Combined with the existing `'use client'` injection on those files, the RSC boundary is correct.
+
+For `context: false`, the import resolves to an RSC-safe code path. If the runtime shim is structured with conditional `require()` or a separate import for the context path, tree-shaking eliminates the dead branch entirely.
+
+### 5. Import Stripping
+
+The `compose` import from `@animus-ui/system` must be stripped from transformed files, same as the `animus` builder import. The emitter already tracks `consumed_sources` and `extracted_bindings` for this purpose. Add `compose` to `extracted_bindings` when compose replacements are present.
+
+### 6. Manifest Storage
+
+The `UniverseManifest` needs to carry compose replacement data. Add a new field:
+
+```rust
+pub compose_replacements: Vec<ComposeReplacement>,
+```
+
+Where:
+```rust
+pub struct ComposeReplacement {
+    pub file_path: String,
+    pub family_binding: Option<String>,
+    pub slots: Vec<(String, String)>,  // (slot_name, binding_name)
+    pub name: String,
+    pub context: bool,
+    pub shared_keys: Vec<String>,
+}
+```
+
+`transform_file` reads these to generate compose replacements alongside component replacements.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+### Compose replacement runs after chain replacement
+**Risk:** The slot bindings in the compose replacement must reference the post-replacement variables. If a slot's builder chain was replaced, the binding name stays the same (the `const CardRoot = createComponent(...)` assignment preserves the variable name). So compose replacement can safely reference the binding.
+**Mitigation:** Verify in tests that compose replacement sees the correct binding names.
+
+### createComposedFamily must not import createContext at module scope
+**Risk:** If the shim unconditionally imports `createContext`, we're back to the same problem.
+**Mitigation:** The shim must lazy-import or conditionally require `createContext` only when `config.context === true`. Since `context` is a literal boolean in the emitted call, bundlers can tree-shake the dead path.
+
+### External packages pre-built with Vite
+**Risk:** Pre-built external packages still ship the old `compose()` call. The next-plugin loader won't transform them if there are no builder chains to replace.
+**Mitigation:** The loader's CSS import stripping (already fixed in this session) handles the CSS side. For the compose call, external packages should rebuild against the updated system package. Document this as a breaking change for pre-built external DS packages.

+## Why
+
+`compose()` imports `createContext` and `useContext` from React unconditionally. These are RSC-banned APIs. Because `@animus-ui/system`'s barrel re-exports `compose`, the entire package is poisoned — importing even `createTheme` in a Next.js Server Component triggers `UnhandledSchemeError` or RSC boundary violations.
+
+This breaks the extraction promise. The CSS-first compose model (selector-based shared variant propagation via descendant selectors) was designed to avoid React context. But the runtime artifact still ships `createContext` even when `context: false` — which is the default and overwhelmingly common case.
+
+The transform emitter already replaces individual builder chains (`ds.styles()...asElement()`) with `createComponent()` calls. `compose()` calls should get the same treatment: the extraction pipeline should replace them with a thin, RSC-safe runtime artifact when `context: false`, and inject `'use client'` only when `context: true` (already tracked via `use_client_files`).
+
+## What Changes
+
+- The Rust extraction pipeline replaces `compose()` call expressions with `createComposedFamily()` calls
+- `context: false` (default): replacement uses only `forwardRef` + `createElement` — fully RSC-safe
+- `context: true`: replacement uses `createContext` + `useContext` + `forwardRef` + `createElement`, and the file receives `'use client'` directive (existing `use_client_files` mechanism)
+- New runtime shim `createComposedFamily` in `@animus-ui/system/runtime` with two code paths
+- The source `compose()` import from `@animus-ui/system` is stripped from transformed output (same pattern as `animus` builder import stripping)
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `compose-replacement`: Transform emitter generates `createComposedFamily()` replacement for `compose()` calls, splitting context/no-context paths for RSC safety
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `project_analyzer.rs`: Records compose call spans alongside existing `ComposeFamilyInfo` for replacement
+- `transform_emitter.rs`: New replacement generator for compose expressions
+- `jsx_scanner.rs`: Captures compose call span (byte range) in `ComposeFamilyInfo`
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Next.js App Router**: `@animus-ui/system` becomes importable in Server Components (for `createTheme`, `createSystem`, types) without RSC boundary violations
+- **Bundle size**: `context: false` families shed `createContext`/`useContext` from their chunk entirely
+- **No API change**: `compose()` call sites remain identical — the replacement is transparent
+- **Existing behavior preserved**: `context: true` families still work, with `'use client'` injected automatically

+# Compose Replacement Spec
+
+## Purpose
+
+Define the extraction-time replacement of `compose()` calls and the runtime shim contract so that `context: false` compose families produce RSC-safe output.
+
+## Runtime Shim: `createComposedFamily`
+
+### Location
+
+`packages/system/src/runtime/createComposedFamily.ts`
+
+Exported from `@animus-ui/system/runtime` (existing subpath).
+
+### Signature
+
+```typescript
+export function createComposedFamily(
+  slots: Record<string, ForwardRefExoticComponent<any>>,
+  config: {
+    name: string;
+    context: boolean;
+    sharedKeys: string[];
+  }
+): Record<string, ForwardRefExoticComponent<any>>
+```
+
+### Behavior
+
+**When `config.context === false`:**
+
+For each slot, wrap with `forwardRef` + `createElement` passthrough. Set `displayName` to `{config.name}.{slotName}`. No hooks, no context, no `createContext` import.
+
+```typescript
+// Generated per slot
+const Wrapper = forwardRef((props, ref) =>
+  createElement(SourceComponent, { ...props, ref })
+);
+Wrapper.displayName = `${name}.${slotName}`;
+```
+
+This is RSC-safe. The function must NOT import `createContext` or `useContext` at module scope.
+
+**When `config.context === true`:**
+
+Create a `React.createContext` instance. Root slot extracts shared props and provides via context Provider wrapping `props.children`. Child slots read context, merge under direct props (direct wins).
+
+```typescript
+const Ctx = createContext<Record<string, unknown>>({});
+const keySet = new Set(config.sharedKeys);
+
+// Root slot
+const Root = forwardRef((props, ref) => {
+  const shared = {};
+  for (const key of keySet) if (key in props) shared[key] = props[key];
+  return createElement(
+    SourceComponent,
+    { ...props, ref },
+    createElement(Ctx.Provider, { value: shared }, props.children)
+  );
+});
+
+// Child slots
+const Child = forwardRef((props, ref) => {
+  const inherited = useContext(Ctx);
+  return createElement(SourceComponent, { ...inherited, ...props, ref });
+});
+```
+
+### RSC Safety Contract
+
+The module MUST structure its imports so that `createContext` and `useContext` are only imported/evaluated when `config.context === true`. Two acceptable patterns:
+
+**Option A — conditional require:**
+```typescript
+import { createElement, forwardRef } from 'react';
+// createContext/useContext imported lazily
+if (config.context) {
+  const { createContext, useContext } = require('react');
+  // ...
+}
+```
+
+**Option B — separate module:**
+```typescript
+// createComposedFamily.ts — RSC-safe, only forwardRef/createElement
+// createComposedFamilyWithContext.ts — has createContext/useContext
+```
+
+With Option B, the emitter imports from different paths based on `context`. This is cleaner for tree-shaking but requires two import targets in the emitter.
+
+**Recommended: Option A.** Simpler emitter, one import target. The conditional require is evaluated at compose-definition time (not render time), so the performance cost is negligible. Bundlers with dead code elimination will remove the `require('react')` branch when `config.context` is the literal `false`.
+
+## Rust Crate Changes
+
+### jsx_scanner.rs — Span Capture
+
+Add `span: (u32, u32)` to `ComposeFamilyInfo`. Set it from the `CallExpression` span in `extract_compose_family`. This is the byte range of the `compose(...)` expression — NOT including the assignment (`const Card =`).
+
+### project_analyzer.rs — Manifest Extension
+
+Add to `UniverseManifest`:
+
+```rust
+#[serde(default)]
+pub compose_replacements: Vec<ComposeReplacementDescriptor>,
+```
+
+```rust
+#[derive(Debug, Clone, Serialize, Deserialize)]
+pub struct ComposeReplacementDescriptor {
+    pub file_path: String,
+    pub family_binding: Option<String>,
+    pub slots: Vec<(String, String)>,
+    pub name: String,
+    pub context: bool,
+    pub shared_keys: Vec<String>,
+}
+```
+
+Populated in the existing compose family loop (around line 1128-1139) after CSS generation is complete.
+
+### transform_emitter.rs — Replacement Generation
+
+New function:
+
+```rust
+pub fn generate_compose_replacement(desc: &ComposeReplacementDescriptor) -> String
+```
+
+Emits:
+```javascript
+createComposedFamily({ Root: RootBinding, Body: BodyBinding }, { name: "Card", context: false, sharedKeys: ["size"] })
+```
+
+Slot values reference the original binding names (which are preserved through chain replacement).
+
+### lib.rs — transform_file Integration
+
+In `transform_file`, after processing component replacements:
+
+1. Read `manifest.compose_replacements` for the current file
+2. Re-walk the source to find compose call spans (needed because the manifest stores file-level data)
+3. Add `SourceReplacement` entries for each compose call
+4. Add `createComposedFamily` to the import injection set
+5. Add `compose` to `extracted_bindings` (strips the source import)
+
+### Import Injection
+
+When compose replacements exist, the runtime import line becomes:
+
+```javascript
+import { createComponent, createComposedFamily } from '@animus-ui/system/runtime';
+```
+
+Or if only compose (no component chains in this file):
+
+```javascript
+import { createComposedFamily } from '@animus-ui/system/runtime';
+```
+
+## Canary Test
+
+Add one canary test case to `packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts`:
+
+```typescript
+// Input
+const CardRoot = ds.styles({ display: 'flex' }).asElement('div');
+const CardBody = ds.styles({ p: 16 }).asElement('div');
+const Card = compose({ Root: CardRoot, Body: CardBody }, { shared: { size: true }, name: 'Card' });
+
+// Expected: compose() call replaced with createComposedFamily()
+// Expected: import includes createComposedFamily
+// Expected: no import of compose from @animus-ui/system
+```
+
+## Success Criteria
+
+1. `context: false` compose output has zero `createContext`/`useContext` in the module graph
+2. `context: true` compose output has `'use client'` directive (existing behavior preserved)
+3. `createComposedFamily` with `context: false` is importable in a React Server Component without error
+4. Composed families retain identical runtime behavior (displayName, prop forwarding, ref forwarding)
+5. Existing canary tests pass unchanged
+6. New canary test verifies compose replacement

+## Context
+
+The showcase has 19 doc primitives built over sessions 54-57. They cover API reference patterns (ParamTable, TypeSignature, MethodCard, ChainStep) and interactive patterns (LivePreview, SyntaxBlock with diffs/highlights). What's missing are **narrative** patterns — components that visually demonstrate what Animus does rather than document how to use it.
+
+Reference file `tmp/docs-v4.html` provides 14 patterns from a fictional CSS-in-JS compiler doc site. Three gaps map directly to Animus's story. Several micro-patterns improve existing primitives.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Build 3 new narrative components that tell the extraction story
+- Upgrade 4 existing primitives with micro-pattern polish
+- Add kitchen sink sections exercising all new/upgraded patterns
+- All components use ds elements, bare scale keys, token opacity syntax idiomatically
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Interactive playground / browser REPL (massive engineering, separate scope)
+- Framework compatibility grid (React-only, not useful yet)
+- Responsive props table (responsive variants aren't the hot story yet)
+- Migration timeline/stepper (useful but lower priority than narrative components)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. BeforeAfter uses two embedded SyntaxBlocks, not raw pre elements
+
+SyntaxBlock already handles Prism highlighting, copy buttons, line numbers, and the bordered prop. BeforeAfter is a **layout container** that positions two SyntaxBlocks side-by-side with pane headers. No syntax highlighting logic duplicated.
+
+Structure: `BeforeAfterContainer > [PaneHeader + SyntaxBlock] × 2`
+
+The pane headers carry labels ("Input · file.tsx" / "Output · styles.css") and status tags ("runtime" / "extracted"). Grid layout `1fr 1fr` with shared outer border, inner divider via border-left on the right pane.
+
+SyntaxBlocks render with `bordered={false}` since the outer container provides the border.
+
+### 2. MetricCard is a simple ds element family, not a compose() family
+
+Three styled elements: `MetricGrid` (3-column grid), `MetricCard` (border + padding), `MetricValue/MetricUnit/MetricLabel/MetricDelta`. No shared variant propagation needed — each card is independent. Delta badge uses a variant for positive/negative/neutral styling.
+
+### 3. BundleBar is a variant-driven bar with CSS width transitions
+
+Each bar row: `BundleLabel` (right-aligned mono text) + `BundleTrack` (background track) + `BundleFill` (colored fill with width set via style prop). Fill color via variant: `runtime | extracted | static`. Width is a percentage string passed as a style prop (not extractable, intentionally — it's data-driven).
+
+The `style={{ width }}` is the correct pattern here — this IS a SNOWFLAKE value (data-driven, not design-token-driven). The color and typography are token-driven; the width is content-driven.
+
+### 4. Callout deprecated variant uses borderLeftStyle override
+
+Add a 5th variant `deprecated` to CalloutContainer and matching entries in CalloutIcon/CalloutTitle. The dashed border is achieved by adding `borderLeftStyle: 'dashed'` in the variant styles alongside the purple/violet color tokens. The compose() family with `shared: { variant: true }` means adding the variant to Root automatically propagates.
+
+### 5. ParamTable required dot replaces text marker
+
+Replace `RequiredMark` text element with `RequiredDot` — a 5px × 5px circle with `bg: 'primary'`, `borderRadius: '50%'`, `display: 'inline-block'`, positioned after the param name with `ml: 4`, `verticalAlign: 'middle'`.
+
+### 6. SyntaxBlock file-type dot in title bar
+
+Add a `FileDot` ds element (8px circle) before the title text in TitleBarLeft. Color determined by language: blue for TS/TSX, green for CSS, amber for shell/config. Rendered only when `title` is provided. Implemented as a small variant-driven element.
+
+### 7. APIBlock wrapper unifies TypeSignature + ParamTable
+
+A thin container component that wraps TypeSignature and ParamTable in a single bordered div with the signature as header and table as body. Removes individual borders from both children. Simple layout wrapper, not a new primitive — just a convenience composition.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **BundleFill width as style prop** — not extractable, but this is intentional. Data-driven values are SNOWFLAKE by design. The extraction pipeline handles this correctly (style prop passes through).
+- **SyntaxBlock file dot adds visual weight** — only rendered when title is present, so inline code blocks (no chrome) are unaffected.
+- **5 Callout variants means 5 entries in 3 sub-components** — compose() shared variant handles propagation, but the variant map grows. Manageable at 5, would need rethinking at 8+.

+## Why
+
+The showcase doc primitives cover API reference well (ParamTable, TypeSignature, MethodCard, SyntaxBlock) but lack **narrative** components — the ones that tell the extraction story visually. A competitive audit against docs-v4.html revealed 7 pattern gaps, 3 of which directly communicate Animus's core value proposition: zero-runtime extraction, cascade-layer architecture, and bundle size advantage. The existing primitives also have micro-pattern opportunities (required dots, file-type indicators, deprecation styling) that would bring them to parity with modern compiler docs.
+
+## What Changes
+
+**New components:**
+- **BeforeAfter** — side-by-side split view showing ds source code → extracted CSS output. Two SyntaxBlocks in a grid with labeled pane headers and status tags. THE proof of extraction.
+- **MetricCard** — stat card with big mono number, unit suffix, label, and delta badge. Grid layout for 3-up performance/build metrics.
+- **BundleBar** — horizontal bar chart comparing bundle sizes across approaches (runtime vs extracted vs static). Labeled tracks with animated fills.
+
+**Upgraded existing primitives:**
+- **Callout** — add `deprecated` variant with dashed border-left and purple/violet color scheme
+- **ParamTable** — replace text "required" with a tiny accent dot (5px circle) after param name
+- **SyntaxBlock** — add file-type colored dot before filename in title bar
+- **APIBlock** — new wrapper component that unifies TypeSignature + ParamTable into a single bordered container (like v4's sig-block)
+
+**Kitchen sink additions:**
+- New sections in component-test.mdx exercising all new components
+- BeforeAfter with real ds → CSS extraction example
+- MetricCard grid with actual build stats
+- BundleBar with Animus size data
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `narrative-components`: BeforeAfter, MetricCard, and BundleBar — components that tell the extraction story through visual comparison and metrics
+- `primitive-upgrades`: Micro-pattern enhancements to Callout, ParamTable, SyntaxBlock, and a new APIBlock wrapper
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/showcase/src/components/docs/` — 3 new files, 3 modified files
+- `packages/showcase/src/components/surfaces/SyntaxBlock.tsx` — file-type dot addition
+- `packages/showcase/src/content/support/component-test.mdx` — new demo sections
+- No API changes to `@animus-ui/system` — all work is showcase-layer
+- No new dependencies required

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: BeforeAfter split view
+The system SHALL provide a BeforeAfter component that displays two code panes side-by-side with labeled headers, demonstrating input source → output result transformations.
+
+#### Scenario: Rendering a before/after extraction example
+- **WHEN** BeforeAfter is rendered with `before` (code string + label) and `after` (code string + label) props
+- **THEN** two SyntaxBlocks appear in a 1fr 1fr grid, each with a pane header showing the label, filename, and a status tag
+
+#### Scenario: Pane headers distinguish input from output
+- **WHEN** the component renders
+- **THEN** the left pane header shows a muted label with a "runtime" tag, and the right pane header shows a green-tinted label with an "extracted" tag
+
+#### Scenario: Embedded SyntaxBlocks suppress their own borders
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlocks render inside BeforeAfter
+- **THEN** they render with `bordered={false}` since the outer container provides the shared border
+
+#### Scenario: Language detection per pane
+- **WHEN** before and after panes have different languages (e.g., TSX input, CSS output)
+- **THEN** each SyntaxBlock receives its own language prop for correct highlighting
+
+### Requirement: MetricCard stat grid
+The system SHALL provide a MetricCard component for displaying key statistics with large formatted numbers, labels, and optional delta badges.
+
+#### Scenario: Rendering a 3-up metric grid
+- **WHEN** three MetricCards are placed inside a MetricGrid
+- **THEN** they render in a 3-column grid with consistent spacing
+
+#### Scenario: Metric value with unit suffix
+- **WHEN** a MetricCard has value "0" and unit "kb"
+- **THEN** the value renders in large mono font with the unit in smaller, dimmer text beside it
+
+#### Scenario: Delta badge indicates improvement
+- **WHEN** a MetricCard has a delta prop with kind "good"
+- **THEN** a green-tinted badge renders below the label showing the delta text
+
+### Requirement: BundleBar comparison chart
+The system SHALL provide a BundleBar component for horizontal bar charts comparing sizes or quantities across categories.
+
+#### Scenario: Rendering comparative bars
+- **WHEN** BundleBar receives an array of items with label, value text, percentage, and category
+- **THEN** each item renders as a row: right-aligned label, background track, and colored fill at the given percentage width
+
+#### Scenario: Fill color varies by category
+- **WHEN** an item has category "runtime", "extracted", or "static"
+- **THEN** the fill bar uses the corresponding color (accent, teal, blue respectively)
+
+#### Scenario: Fill width animates on mount
+- **WHEN** the component mounts
+- **THEN** fill bars transition from 0% to their target width with a cubic-bezier easing

+The ParamTable SHALL use a small visual dot indicator for required parameters instead of text.
+
+#### Scenario: Required param shows accent dot
+- **WHEN** a parameter has default value "required"
+- **THEN** a 5px accent-colored circle renders after the parameter name instead of the text "required"
+
+#### Scenario: Optional params show default value unchanged
+- **WHEN** a parameter has a non-"required" default value
+- **THEN** the default value renders as dim mono text (existing behavior, unchanged)
+
+### Requirement: SyntaxBlock file-type dot
+The SyntaxBlock title bar SHALL display a colored dot indicating the file type when a title is provided.
+
+#### Scenario: TypeScript file shows blue dot
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with a title and language "tsx" or "typescript"
+- **THEN** an 8px blue dot appears before the title text
+
+#### Scenario: CSS file shows green dot
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with a title and language "css"
+- **THEN** an 8px green dot appears before the title text
+
+#### Scenario: No dot without title
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders without a title (no chrome)
+- **THEN** no file-type dot is rendered
+
+### Requirement: APIBlock unified container
+The system SHALL provide an APIBlock component that wraps TypeSignature and ParamTable into a single bordered unit.
+
+#### Scenario: Signature renders as header, table as body
+- **WHEN** APIBlock receives signature props and params
+- **THEN** TypeSignature renders as the top section and ParamTable renders below it, sharing a single outer border
+
+#### Scenario: Individual borders suppressed
+- **WHEN** TypeSignature and ParamTable render inside APIBlock
+- **THEN** their individual borders are suppressed by the container's CSS, preventing double borders

+# Phase 3 Audit Report — docs-auditor
+
+> 25 pages validated against source code. 12 errors found across 10 pages. 15 pages PASS.
+
+## Severity Legend
+
+- **BLOCKER** — incorrect API reference or signature that will mislead consumers
+- **HIGH** — missing coverage from Phase 1 checklist
+- **MEDIUM** — behavioral claim that doesn't match implementation
+
+---
+
+## BLOCKER Errors
+
+### 1. [HALLUCINATED_API] Vite Plugin: `prefix` option does not exist
+**Page:** Vite Plugin (`compiler/vite-plugin.mdx`, line 91-95)
+**Detail:** ParamTable documents a `prefix: string` option on `AnimusExtractOptions`. The actual interface (`vite-plugin/src/index.ts:33-70`) has 8 fields: system, include, exclude, strict, verbose, targets, minify, layers. No `prefix`.
+**Origin:** Phase 1 outline listed `prefix` in the coverage checklist. The NAPI function `analyze_project` accepts `prefix?` internally, but the plugin does not expose it.
+**Cascade:** This hallucination propagates to createTheme Reference and Migration pages.
+
+### 2. [WRONG_SIGNATURE] createTheme Reference: `build()` does not accept options
+**Page:** createTheme Reference (`reference/create-theme.mdx`, line 413)
+**Detail:** Documents `build(options: { prefix?: string })`. The actual `build()` at `system/src/theme/createTheme.ts` takes zero parameters and returns `BuiltTheme<T, Emitted>`. The `prefix` functionality does not exist on ThemeBuilder.
+**Source:** `system/src/theme/createTheme.ts` — `build()` method.
+
+### 3. [WRONG_CONSTRAINT] Layer names missing `anm-` prefix (SYSTEMIC — 4 pages)
+**Pages:** Vite Plugin (line 114-120), Extraction (line 105/130), Troubleshooting (line 179), Migration (line 215-223)
+**Detail:** Docs show layer names as `global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom`. Actual layer names are `anm-global, anm-base, anm-variants, anm-compounds, anm-states, anm-system, anm-custom`.
+**Source:** `extract/pipeline/assemble-stylesheet.ts:5-13` (ANIMUS_LAYERS constant). Confirmed by integration tests and vite-plugin JSDoc (line 63).
+
+---
+
+## HIGH Errors
+
+### 4. [MISSING_COVERAGE] TypeScript page: 11 of 19 checklist types absent
+**Page:** TypeScript Integration (`advanced/typescript.mdx`)
+**Detail:** The following types from the Phase 1 coverage checklist are not mentioned on the page: TokenScales, ColorTokenRef, ScaleTokenRef, CSSColorValue, ThemedCSSProps, ThemedCSSPropMap, VariantConfig, CompoundEntry, ComposedFamily, SharedConfig, AnyBrandedComponent.
+**Note:** All 11 types ARE documented on their narrative home pages (Base Styling, Variants, Composition, etc.). The gap is that the TypeScript page's "Full Type Reference" table doesn't include them.
+
+### 5. [WRONG_CONSTRAINT] System Props: false claim about auto-registration
+**Page:** System Props & Groups (`authoring/system-props.mdx`, line 82)
+**Detail:** States "The following groups are registered on every Animus design system instance built from `createSystem()`." In reality, `createSystem()` returns an empty `SystemBuilder`. Groups must be explicitly imported from `@animus-ui/system/groups` and added via `.addGroup(name, config)`.
+
+### 6. [MISSING_COVERAGE] Builder Chain Reference: missing AnimusExtendedWithCompounds
+**Page:** Builder Chain Reference (`reference/builder-chain.mdx`, line 483-490)
+**Detail:** Extension chain class table lists 6 classes but the actual implementation at `system/src/AnimusExtended.ts` has 7. Missing: `AnimusExtendedWithCompounds` (line 235). Table jumps from AnimusExtendedWithVariants to AnimusExtendedWithStates.
+
+---
+
+## MEDIUM Errors
+
+### 7. [WRONG_SIGNATURE] Base Styling: BuiltInSelectorAlias missing `_required`
+**Page:** Base Styling (`authoring/base-styling.mdx`, line 200-206)
+**Detail:** Type definition shows 24 selectors but source has 25. Missing: `_required` (selector: `&:required, &[aria-required="true"]`, order: 120). Page also claims "23 built-in selector aliases" (line 353).
+**Source:** `system/src/selectors.ts:45`
+
+### 8. [WRONG_SIGNATURE] Variants page: defaultVariant type imprecision
+**Page:** Variants, Compounds & States (`authoring/variants-states.mdx`, line 32/55)
+**Detail:** Documents `defaultVariant?: keyof Props`. Source has `Extract<keyof Props, string>`. The `Extract` wrapper ensures only string keys are accepted (excludes symbol/number keys).
+**Source:** `system/src/Animus.ts:364`
+
+### 9. [WRONG_CONSTRAINT] Custom Props: size transform range boundary
+**Page:** Custom Props & Transforms (`authoring/custom-props.mdx`, line 240)
+**Detail:** Documents "Number in `(-1, 0) ∪ (0, 1]`" for percentage conversion. Actual implementation uses `coordinate <= 1 && coordinate >= -1` which is the closed interval `[-1, 1]` (inclusive of -1). The documented open interval on -1 is incorrect.
+**Source:** `system/src/transforms/size.ts:7`
+
+### 10. [MISSING_COVERAGE] Custom Props: Prop.currentVar field undocumented
+**Page:** Custom Props & Transforms (`authoring/custom-props.mdx`)
+**Detail:** The `Prop` interface at `system/src/types/config.ts:19` has a `currentVar?: string` field. The page's Prop interface listing (lines 48-56) omits it.
+
+### 11. [HALLUCINATED_API] Theming page: varRef example uses undefined scale
+**Page:** Theming & Tokens (`architecture/theming.mdx`, line 310)
+**Detail:** Example shows `built.varRef('fontSizes.sm')` returning `'0.875rem'` but the example theme only adds breakpoints, colors, and space — no `fontSizes` scale. The `varRef` implementation returns `undefined` for non-existent scale paths.
+
+### 12. [WRONG_SIGNATURE] Migration: `layers` option typed as string, should be string[]
+**Page:** Migration & Adoption (`support/migration.mdx`, line 220)
+**Detail:** Example passes `layers: 'design-system'` (a string). The `AnimusExtractOptions.layers` field is typed as `string[]` (array). Also misrepresents `layers` as an outer wrapper when it's actually the full @layer declaration order.
+**Source:** `vite-plugin/src/index.ts:69`
+
+---
+
+## Systemic Pattern: `prefix` Hallucination Chain
+
+The `prefix` option is documented across 3 pages as a user-facing feature, but it only exists at the NAPI level (`analyze_project` parameter) — not in the Vite plugin's public API. The chain:
+
+1. Phase 1 outline listed `prefix` in Vite Plugin coverage checklist
+2. Phase 2 expanded it with ParamTable entry, examples, and layer prefixing
+3. createTheme Reference added `build({ prefix })` to match
+4. Migration page used bare layer names (consequence of prefix framing)
+
+The `anm-` prefix on layer names is a hardcoded default in `ANIMUS_LAYERS`, not controlled by a user-facing option. To fix, remove `prefix` from all pages and update all layer name references to include the `anm-` prefix.
+
+---
+
+## Pages That PASS (15/25)
+
+1. Introduction
+2. Getting Started
+3. Selectors & Nesting

+## Context
+
+Phase 2 (docs-scribe) produces full MDX documentation. Phase 3 (The Auditor) performs technical validation against the real codebase. The auditor does NOT rewrite — it produces a constrained error report that feeds back to Phase 2 for correction.
+
+This separation prevents validation drift: if the auditor rewrites, it becomes a second author with its own hallucination surface. Constraining output to "bulleted errors or PASS" forces precision.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Validate every API reference in Phase 2 output against actual source code
+- Diff Phase 1 coverage checklists against Phase 2 mentions (find gaps)
+- Check TypeScript code examples against real type signatures
+- Verify extraction constraint claims match actual extractor behavior
+- Produce machine-parseable error reports
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Rewriting or improving documentation prose
+- Judging prose quality, tone, or pedagogical effectiveness
+- Suggesting alternative explanations or better examples
+- Validating MDX syntax (that's a build check, not a content audit)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Output Format: Bulleted Errors Only
+
+Per-page output is one of:
+- `PASS` — no errors found
+- A bulleted list where each item is: `[ERROR_TYPE] description`
+
+Error types:
+- `[HALLUCINATED_API]` — references a method, type, prop, or config that doesn't exist in source
+- `[WRONG_SIGNATURE]` — API exists but signature in example doesn't match real types
+- `[MISSING_COVERAGE]` — API on Phase 1 checklist not mentioned in Phase 2 output
+- `[EXTRA_COVERAGE]` — API documented on this page but owned by a different page in Phase 1
+- `[WRONG_CONSTRAINT]` — extraction limitation or dev/prod behavior claim that's incorrect
+- `[STALE_TOKEN]` — token name referenced doesn't exist in current theme
+- `[WRONG_IMPORT]` — import path doesn't match real package exports
+
+### 2. Validation Method: Source Grep + Type Reading
+
+For each API referenced in a page's code examples:
+1. Grep the source packages for the method/type/export name
+2. If found, compare the usage in the example against the real signature
+3. If not found, flag as `[HALLUCINATED_API]`
+
+For extraction claims:
+1. Read the relevant extractor source (css_generator.rs, project_analyzer.rs)
+2. Verify the claimed behavior matches implementation
+
+### 3. Coverage Diff Method
+
+1. Parse Phase 1 outline's coverage checklist for the page
+2. Parse Phase 2 output for all API mentions (method calls, type references, import statements)
+3. Set difference: checklist items NOT in output = `[MISSING_COVERAGE]`
+4. Items in output NOT on this page's checklist = check if they're on another page's checklist. If yes, `[EXTRA_COVERAGE]`. If no page owns them, flag as `[HALLUCINATED_API]`.
+
+### 4. Scope Per Run
+
+Run validation per-page, matching Phase 2's per-page expansion. This keeps context manageable and error reports actionable.
+
+After all pages pass individually, run one cross-page consistency check:
+- Same API explained differently on two pages?
+- Cross-references point to sections that exist?
+- Import paths consistent across examples?
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+### Auditor May Miss Subtle Type Errors
+**Risk**: A code example uses the right method name but passes wrong argument types.
+**Mitigation**: Auditor reads actual TypeScript definitions. Deep type validation (generics, conditional types) may still be missed — accept this as a known limitation. The build step (`bun run build` on showcase) is the final type-level gate.
+
+### False Positives from Re-exported APIs
+**Risk**: An API grepped for in `@animus-ui/system` might actually live in `@animus-ui/core` and be re-exported.
+**Mitigation**: Auditor checks the re-export chain: system re-exports from core and theming. If found in any of the three, it's valid.
+
+### Auditor Scope Creep
+**Risk**: The auditor starts suggesting improvements or rewriting examples.
+**Mitigation**: Hard constraint in the prompt: "Do not rewrite. Only output errors. If none found, output PASS." This is the single most important rule.

+## Why
+
+LLM-generated documentation has a specific failure mode: hallucinated APIs. A code example that references `ds.styles().responsive()` looks correct but that method doesn't exist. Phase 2 (docs-scribe) produces full MDX content — Phase 3 (The Auditor) validates it against the real codebase.
+
+The auditor's output is constrained: bulleted error lists only, no rewrites. This prevents the validator from drifting into co-authoring, which would compromise the separation between creation and review.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Per-page technical validation of Phase 2 output against real source code
+- API provenance checking: does every referenced method, type, and config option actually exist?
+- Coverage diff: compare Phase 1 outline's checklist against actual APIs mentioned in Phase 2 output
+- Type accuracy: do code examples match real TypeScript signatures?
+- Extraction constraint accuracy: do warnings about static extraction match actual extractor behavior?
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `validation-protocol`: The per-page validation prompt — defines validation criteria, provenance checking method, output format (bulleted errors or PASS), and the type definitions to check against.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+## Impact
+
+- No file modifications — validation produces error reports only
+- Consumes: Phase 1 outline + Phase 2 expanded pages + source code from system/core/theming/extract
+- Produces: Per-page error reports or PASS confirmations
+- Errors feed back to Phase 2 for targeted correction

+# Validation Protocol
+
+## Purpose
+
+This spec defines the repeatable prompt for validating a single page of expanded documentation (Phase 2 output) against the real codebase. The auditor produces error reports only — never rewrites. Run this once per page after Phase 2 expansion.
+
+## The Prompt
+
+```
+You are a Principal Frontend Engineer performing a strict technical audit
+on documentation for Animus, a zero-runtime CSS-in-JS library.
+
+Your job is to find ERRORS. You do not rewrite, suggest improvements, or
+judge prose quality. You produce a bulleted error list or "PASS".
+
+## Your Inputs
+
+1. The PHASE 1 OUTLINE for this page (coverage checklist + section structure)
+2. The PHASE 2 MDX OUTPUT for this page (the content being validated)
+3. The SOURCE CODE of the Animus packages:
+   - packages/system/src/ (builder chain, compose, types)
+   - packages/core/src/ (Animus.ts — the backwards-inheritance builder)
+   - packages/theming/src/ (createTheme, ThemeBuilder, serialize)
+   - packages/vite-plugin/src/ (plugin lifecycle, config)
+   - packages/extract/src/ (Rust crate — css_generator.rs, project_analyzer.rs)
+4. The THEME DEFINITION from packages/showcase/src/ds.ts
+
+## Error Types
+
+Use exactly these tags. Each error is one bullet.
+
+  [HALLUCINATED_API] — references a method, type, prop, or config option
+    that does not exist in the source code. Include: what was referenced,
+    what file you searched, what actually exists (if close match found).
+
+  [WRONG_SIGNATURE] — API exists but the example uses it incorrectly.
+    Include: the example's usage, the real signature from source, the file
+    and line number of the real definition.
+
+  [MISSING_COVERAGE] — an API on the Phase 1 coverage checklist is not
+    mentioned or demonstrated in the Phase 2 output. Include: the missing
+    API identifier.
+
+  [EXTRA_COVERAGE] — an API is documented on this page but belongs to a
+    different page per the Phase 1 outline. Include: the API, which page
+    owns it.
+
+  [WRONG_CONSTRAINT] — a claim about extraction behavior, dev/prod
+    differences, or type system constraints that is incorrect. Include:
+    the claim, the actual behavior, the source file that proves it.
+
+  [STALE_TOKEN] — a token name used in a code example that doesn't exist
+    in the current theme (ds.ts). Include: the token reference, the
+    available tokens in that scale.
+
+  [WRONG_IMPORT] — an import path that doesn't match real package exports
+    or component locations. Include: the import used, the correct path.
+
+  [WRONG_COMPONENT] — an MDX component used that doesn't exist in the
+    palette or is used with wrong props. Include: the component, the issue.
+
+## Validation Procedure
+
+For each code example in the page:
+
+1. Identify every Animus API call (ds.styles, .variant, compose, createTheme, etc.)
+2. Grep the source packages for the method name
+3. If found: compare the example's argument shape against the real TypeScript signature
+4. If not found: flag [HALLUCINATED_API]
+5. Check token references against ds.ts theme definition
+6. Check import paths against real file locations
+
+For each prose claim about behavior:
+
+1. Identify claims about what the extractor does, how types narrow,
+   what happens in dev vs prod, what's extractable vs not
+2. Find the source code that implements the claimed behavior
+3. If the claim contradicts the source: flag [WRONG_CONSTRAINT]
+
+For coverage:
+
+1. Parse the Phase 1 coverage checklist for this page
+2. Search the Phase 2 output for each checklist item
+3. Missing items: flag [MISSING_COVERAGE]
+4. Items documented here but owned by another page: flag [EXTRA_COVERAGE]
+
+## Output Format
+
+Option A — errors found:
+
+  ## Page: [page title]
+
+  - [HALLUCINATED_API] `ds.styles().responsive()` — no `.responsive()` method
+    exists on the builder chain. Searched: packages/core/src/Animus.ts.
+    Closest match: responsive values are passed as array syntax on CSS
+    properties, not as a chain method.
+
+  - [MISSING_COVERAGE] `system#VariantPropsOf` — on coverage checklist
+    but not mentioned in page output.
+
+  - [WRONG_IMPORT] `import { compose } from '@animus-ui/core'` — compose
+    is exported from `@animus-ui/system`, not core. Core is not a consumer
+    package.
+
+Option B — no errors:
+
+  ## Page: [page title]
+
+  PASS
+
+## Cross-Page Consistency Check
+
+After all individual pages pass, run one final check:
+
+1. Same API explained differently on two pages? Flag inconsistency.
+2. Cross-references point to sections/pages that actually exist in the outline?
+3. Import paths consistent across all examples?
+4. Token usage consistent (same token names for same visual concepts)?
+
+Output the same bulleted error format, tagged [CROSS_PAGE].
+
+## Rules
+
+- Do NOT rewrite documentation. Do NOT suggest improvements.
+- Do NOT judge prose quality, tone, or pedagogical approach.
+- If you find a potential issue but aren't certain, flag it with [UNCERTAIN]
+  and explain what you'd need to verify.
+- Check the re-export chain: system re-exports from core and theming.
+  An API found in any of the three is valid if imported from system.
+- The build step (bun run build on showcase) is the final type-level gate.
+  Your job is content accuracy, not compilability.
+```
+
+## Output
+
+Per-page error report or PASS. Cross-page consistency report after all pages pass individually.
+
+## Success Criteria
+
+- Every code example in Phase 2 output has been checked against source
+- Every coverage checklist item has been verified present in output
+- Error reports are specific: include file paths, line numbers, real signatures
+- Zero false positives from re-export confusion (system/core/theming chain)
+- Auditor never rewrites or suggests — errors only

+## Context
+
+The showcase documentation site has 20 MDX files dynamically routed via `import.meta.glob('./content/**/*.mdx')` in App.tsx, with navigation defined in `src/constants/docsNav.ts` (26 routes across 6 sections). Two pages are preserved: `support/component-test.mdx` (kitchen sink exercising all doc components) and `pages/Examples.tsx` (interactive test matrices).
+
+The documentation infrastructure is production-ready — 23 verified MDX components, responsive 3-column layout, MDXProvider with styled markdown mappings. The gap is systematic content, not tooling.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Produce an outline guaranteeing 100% public API coverage with zero gaps or duplicates
+- Categorize each page by Diataxis type to prevent structural homogeneity
+- Map the real MDX component palette to appropriate sections
+- Define page ordering that mirrors the builder chain cascade learning curve
+- Make the outline format structured enough that Phase 2 can consume it mechanically
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Writing any documentation prose (Phase 2)
+- Building new MDX components (palette is complete)
+- Modifying docsNav.ts (outline may recommend changes, execution is Phase 2)
+- Documenting internal/non-public APIs
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Quarantine Strategy: Stub Files
+
+Replace stale MDX content with a single `# Page Title` heading. Preserves `import.meta.glob` routing, `docsNav.ts` navigation, and git history.
+
+**Alternative rejected**: Delete files + update routing — higher risk, touches App.tsx and docsNav.ts.
+**Alternative rejected**: Move to archive — breaks routing, adds cleanup step.
+
+### 2. Page Structure: Discovery-Driven, Not Prescribed
+
+The page count and boundaries are determined by the API surface discovered during Task Group 2 (enumeration), not fixed in advance. The outline prompt provides starting suggestions but explicitly instructs the Cartographer to add, merge, or split pages as coverage demands.
+
+Ordering principle: pages should follow the learning curve from concept to advanced usage. The cascade provides a natural ordering backbone (intro → setup → theme → build → compose → extract → configure → debug), but the Cartographer decides granularity.
+
+Areas likely to need their own pages beyond the initial suggestions:
+- Selector aliases and nested selectors
+- Custom transforms
+- Prop shorthand and scale binding
+- Global styles and CSS output structure
+- Theme distribution patterns (.from(), .extend())
+- Type exports and utilities (if enough surface for a reference page)
+
+### 3. Verified Component Palette
+
+Content-authoring components (used directly in MDX):
+
+| Component | What It Does | Best Section Type |
+|-----------|-------------|-------------------|
+| `SyntaxBlock` | Syntax-highlighted code with copy, collapse, line numbers, diff marks | All code examples |
+| `CodeExample` | Split/stacked input-to-output comparison | Before/after transformations |
+| `BeforeAfter` | Two-pane comparison with labeled headers | Runtime vs extracted CSS |
+| `LivePreview` | Tabbed preview + code with variant toolbar | Interactive component demos |
+| `TypeSignature` | Formatted function signature with role-based token coloring | API method signatures |
+| `MethodCard` | Accordion-based method documentation | API reference per-method |
+| `ParamTable` | Parameter table with TokenBadge type annotations | Function parameter docs |
+| `TokenBadge` | Inline semantic badge (method/layer/type/prop/tag/danger/success) | Inline API annotations |
+| `APIBlock` | Bordered container grouping related API docs elements | API reference groupings |
+| `Callout` | 4 variants (info/tip/warn/danger) with composed header | Warnings, design rationale, tips |
+| `ChainStep` | Interactive step visualizer with detail panel | Builder chain walkthrough |
+| `TabGroup` | @ark-ui tabs wrapper | Side-by-side comparisons |
+| `MetricCard` | Metric display card with value, unit, label, delta | Performance/bundle stats |
+| `BundleBar` | Horizontal bar chart for bundle sizes | Bundle size breakdowns |
+| `Button` | Full styled button (6 colors, 4 kinds, 3 sizes) | Interactive call-to-action |
+
+Auto-provided (not manually imported in MDX — MDXProvider + DocsLayout handle these):
+`Heading` (auto-anchor), `Sidebar`, `PageNav`, `PageToc`, `DocsBreadcrumb`, `CopyButton`, `ColorPalette`, `ColorModeToggle`
+
+### 4. Coverage Contract Format
+
+Each page's outline ends with a coverage checklist using the format `package#export.method`:
+
+```
+### Coverage Checklist
+- [ ] system#ds.styles()
+- [ ] system#ds.styles().variant()
+- [ ] system#ds.styles().variant().compound()
+...
+```
+
+Rules:
+- Every public export appears on exactly ONE page's checklist
+- If an API appears in a narrative page AND the API reference, the narrative page owns primary documentation; the reference page cross-references
+- Mark uncertain APIs with `[VERIFY]` for author confirmation before Phase 2
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+### Quarantine Destroys Content in Working Tree
+**Risk**: Stale content only recoverable via git after stubbing.
+**Mitigation**: Git history preserves everything. The introduction.mdx prose is genuinely strong — the outline should note its philosophical framing for Phase 2 to reference from git history.
+
+### Outline May Propose Different Page Structure Than docsNav.ts
+**Risk**: Outline restructures pages in ways that require nav/routing changes.
+**Mitigation**: The outline IS the authority. Navigation updates are a Phase 2 implementation task if the outline demands different page boundaries.
+
+### API Surface Enumeration May Miss Exports
+**Risk**: Enumeration misses re-exported types, conditional exports, or methods only discoverable by reading class implementations.
+**Mitigation**: Task Group 2 requires reading actual source files (not just index.ts), including the 6-class Animus.ts implementation, ThemeBuilder.ts, selectors.ts, and the real-world ds.ts usage. Cross-check against CLAUDE.md. The seed inventory explicitly lists known gaps to investigate.

+# Animus Documentation Outline
+
+> Generated by docs-cartographer Phase 1. This is the structural contract for Phase 2 (docs-scribe) and Phase 3 (docs-auditor).
+
+## Structural Decisions
+
+### Page Count: 25 (19 repurposed + 6 new)
+
+The seed inventory suggested 13 pages. Full API surface enumeration revealed:
+- **13 pre-built prop groups** (not 10) — `mode`, `vars`, `background`, `transitions` were missing from seed
+- **27 built-in selectors** with explicit cascade ordering — too dense for a subsection
+- **6 built-in transforms** + `createTransform` factory — distinct from system props
+- **`declareContextualVars()`**, **`extendScale()`**, **`varRef()`**, **`.manifest`** on ThemeBuilder — not in seed
+- **`GlobalStyleBlock.serialize()`** contract — extraction lifecycle hook
+- **`SystemBuilder.includes()`** for external system composition — not in seed
+- **`asChild`** and **`as`** props on all terminal components — headless composition pattern
+- **CompoundEntry conditions accept arrays** — multi-value matching
+- **90+ type exports** across 5 categories
+
+### New Pages (6)
+
+| File | Justification |
+|------|--------------|
+| `architecture/global-styles.mdx` | `createGlobalStyles` factory + `GlobalStyleBlock.serialize()` contract + reset/global layers + keyframe patterns. 6+ APIs, distinct lifecycle from component styling. |
+| `authoring/selectors.mdx` | 27 built-in selectors + `addSelectors()` + custom selectors + cascade ordering + `.states()` integration. Would overwhelm "Variants & States" if merged. |
+| `authoring/custom-props.mdx` | `.props()` + `CustomPropConfig` + `createTransform` + 6 built-in transforms + scale binding + variable declaration. Distinct concept from system prop groups. |
+| `advanced/extraction.mdx` | @layer structure, dev vs prod, stable class names, per-property skip, virtual modules, HMR. Conceptual explanation critical for debugging and architecture understanding. |
+| `authoring/recipes.mdx` | Full component builds combining 3-5 concepts (variants + states + selectors + system props + composition). Three reviewers independently flagged the gap between concept pages and real-world usage. |
+| `support/migration.mdx` | Adoption guide for teams coming from runtime CSS-in-JS (styled-components, Emotion, Chakra). Covers coexistence, incremental migration, common refactoring patterns. All three reviewers flagged this gap. |
+
+### Recommended Reading Order
+
+Three-lens review identified that architecture-first ordering (7 setup pages before authoring) creates friction for new users. The recommended reading order for the sidebar navigation is:
+
+1. Introduction → Getting Started (onboarding)
+2. Base Styling → Variants & States → Selectors → System Props → Custom Props → Composition → Recipes (authoring — learn to USE it)
+3. Theming → Color Modes → System Setup → Theme Extension → Global Styles (architecture — learn to CONFIGURE it)
+4. Vite Plugin → Next.js & Remix (integration)
+5. TypeScript → Framework Agnostic → Extraction & CSS Output (advanced)
+6. Reference pages (builder chain, createTheme, createSystem, compose)
+7. Troubleshooting → Migration (support)
+
+Phase 2 should update `docsNav.ts` to reflect this order.
+
+### The Static Constraint
+
+**The single most important constraint**: all style values must be **static string literals** for extraction. No template literals, no function calls, no variables. This was independently flagged by all three reviewers as insufficiently surfaced. Phase 2 must:
+- State this constraint prominently on the Introduction page (Section 2, "What Animus Does Differently")
+- Include it in Getting Started as a first-class callout
+- Repeat a standard callout on EVERY authoring page (8-12) linking to the Per-Property Skip Model explanation
+- The Troubleshooting page should have "partial extraction" as a primary diagnostic entry
+
+### Merged Pages
+
+| Original Suggestion | Merged Into | Reason |
+|--------------------|------------|--------|
+| "Prop shorthand and custom props" | Split: shorthand in System Props, custom in Custom Props & Transforms | Different audiences: shorthand is consumption, custom is authorship |
+| "Theme distribution" | Theme Extension page | `.from()` + `.extend()` + module augmentation fits naturally here |
+| "API reference catch-all" | Distributed across Reference section | Builder Chain, createTheme, createSystem, compose each have enough depth |

+## Page Outlines
+
+---
+
+### Page 1: Introduction
+
+- **File:** `content/introduction.mdx`
+- **URL:** `/docs`
+- **Diataxis:** Explanation
+- **Reader context:** Developer evaluating Animus or arriving from a link. May know CSS-in-JS (Emotion, styled-components) or utility-first (Tailwind). Wants to understand what this is and why it exists.
+- **Objective:** Reader understands Animus's position (zero-runtime, type-safe, builder-pattern) and can decide if it fits their needs.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **The Problem with Runtime CSS-in-JS**
+   - Intent: Mental model — why zero-runtime matters
+   - APIs covered: None (conceptual)
+   - Components: `<Callout variant="info">`, `<MetricCard>`, `<BundleBar>`
+   - Edge cases: Reader may conflate "zero-runtime" with "no JS" — clarify that React components still ship, only style computation is eliminated
+   - Cross-refs: → Getting Started, → Static Extraction & CSS Output
+
+2. **What Animus Does Differently**
+   - Intent: Architecture overview — builder chain → type-state → @layer cascade → static extraction
+   - APIs covered: None (conceptual overview, not API docs)
+   - Components: `<ChainStep>` (visualize the builder chain concept), `<BeforeAfter>` (runtime vs extracted output)
+   - Edge cases: Don't oversell — be honest about trade-offs (static-only values, build step required)
+   - Cross-refs: → Builder Chain, → Vite Plugin
+
+3. **The Fundamental Trade-off: Static Values Only**
+   - Intent: Constraint surfacing — the #1 thing every developer must know before writing code
+   - APIs covered: None (constraint, not API)
+   - Components: `<Callout variant="warn">`, `<BeforeAfter>` (what works vs what gets skipped)
+   - Edge cases: **All style values must be static string literals.** No template literals, no function calls, no variables, no ternaries with dynamic conditions. This is the price of zero-runtime — the Rust extractor must resolve all values at build time. When a value isn't static, that property (not the whole component) falls back to runtime resolution. Show a concrete before/after: `bg: isDark ? 'gray.900' : 'white'` → SKIPPED vs `bg: 'primary'` → EXTRACTED.
+   - Cross-refs: → Static Extraction & CSS Output (per-property skip model), → Troubleshooting
+
+4. **The Zero-Runtime Proof**
+   - Intent: Trust builder — show exactly what ships to the browser
+   - APIs covered: `system#createComponent`, `system#createClassResolver` (as extraction output, not consumer API)
+   - Components: `<BundleBar>`, `<MetricCard>`, `<CodeExample>` (builder chain → extracted CSS + transformed JS → bundle)
+   - Edge cases: `createComponent` IS runtime code — it resolves class names from props at render time. Be explicit about this residual: it's a thin prop-to-className mapper, not style computation. Show the actual bundle contribution.
+   - Cross-refs: → Framework Agnostic (runtime API details)
+
+5. **Who This Is For**
+   - Intent: Audience fit — design system authors, component library maintainers, teams with mature token systems
+   - APIs covered: None
+   - Components: `<Callout variant="tip">`
+   - Cross-refs: → Getting Started
+
+#### Coverage Checklist
+(No APIs — conceptual page)
+

+
+### Page 2: Getting Started
+
+- **File:** `content/start.mdx`
+- **URL:** `/docs/start`
+- **Diataxis:** Tutorial
+- **Reader context:** Developer who has decided to try Animus. Has a Vite + React project (or will create one). Needs a working component in 5 minutes.
+- **Objective:** Reader has a working Animus component rendered in the browser with extracted CSS.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **Install**
+   - Intent: Mechanical setup — install packages, create ds.ts
+   - APIs covered: `system#createTheme`, `system#createSystem`, `system#createGlobalStyles`
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: bun vs npm — bun is required for the extraction subprocess
+   - Cross-refs: → System Setup (deep dive)
+
+2. **Define Your Theme**
+   - Intent: Minimal theme — breakpoints + one color scale
+   - APIs covered: `system#ThemeBuilder.addBreakpoints`, `system#ThemeBuilder.addColors`, `system#ThemeBuilder.build`
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<Callout variant="tip">`
+   - Edge cases: Theme augmentation (`declare module`) is critical — without it, scale props won't autocomplete
+   - Cross-refs: → Theming & Tokens
+
+3. **Build Your First Component**
+   - Intent: Pattern demo — ds.styles() → variant → asElement
+   - APIs covered: `system#Animus.styles`, `system#AnimusWithBase.variant`, `system#AnimusWithAll.asElement`
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: Must use `ds.styles()` (system instance), not `animus.styles()` (core). Common mistake.
+   - Cross-refs: → Base Styling, → Variants & Compounds
+
+4. **Wire Up the Plugin**
+   - Intent: Mechanical — vite.config.ts, import virtual CSS
+   - APIs covered: `vite-plugin#animusExtract`
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<Callout variant="warn">`
+   - Edge cases: No React resolve aliases in vite.config — breaks extraction. Virtual CSS import: `import 'virtual:animus/styles.css'`
+   - Cross-refs: → Vite Plugin, → Next.js Plugin
+
+#### Coverage Checklist

+
+### Page 3: Theming & Tokens
+
+- **File:** `content/architecture/theming.mdx`
+- **URL:** `/docs/architecture/theming`
+- **Diataxis:** Explanation
+- **Reader context:** Developer setting up their design system's token vocabulary. Understands CSS custom properties. Wants to know how Animus structures tokens and what "emission" means.
+- **Objective:** Reader understands the theme builder chain, emission tracking, serialization contract, and how tokens become CSS variables.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **The Theme Builder Chain**
+   - Intent: Mental model — createTheme() → addBreakpoints → addColors → addScale → build
+   - APIs covered: `system#createTheme`, `system#ThemeBuilder.addBreakpoints`, `system#ThemeBuilder.addScale`
+   - Components: `<ChainStep>`, `<TypeSignature>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: `addBreakpoints` must be called first (type constraint). Scale `emit: true` vs default (no emission).
+   - Cross-refs: → Color Modes, → System Setup
+
+2. **Scale Definition & Emission**
+   - Intent: API reference — addScale config shape, emit flag, scale types
+   - APIs covered: `system#ThemeBuilder.addScale`, `system#createScale`, `system#numericScale`, `system#stringScale`, `system#numericOrStringScale`, `system#EmittedScales`, `system#EmittedTokenPaths`, `system#TokenScales`
+   - Components: `<MethodCard>`, `<ParamTable>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: `emit: true` produces CSS variables; without it, values are inlined at extraction time. Phantom scale types (`createScale<T>()`) for custom value constraints.
+   - Cross-refs: → System Props & Groups (scale binding), → Custom Props & Transforms
+
+3. **Token Path Syntax**
+   - Intent: Pattern demo — bare keys vs template syntax
+   - APIs covered: `system#ColorTokenRef`, `system#ScaleTokenRef`
+   - Components: `<CodeExample>`, `<Callout variant="info">`, `<TokenBadge>`
+   - Edge cases: Bare keys (`primary`) for typed props where scale is known. Template syntax (`{colors.primary}`) for untyped contexts. These resolve to `var(--color-primary)` at extraction time.
+   - Cross-refs: → Base Styling
+
+4. **Serialization Contract**
+   - Intent: Explanation — what serialize() produces and who consumes it
+   - APIs covered: `system#SerializedTheme`
+   - Components: `<APIBlock>`, `<ParamTable>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: `scalesJson` is flattened dot-path → value. `variableMapJson` maps token paths to CSS variable names. `variableCss` is the `:root {}` block. This is consumed by the Rust crate at build time.
+   - Cross-refs: → Static Extraction & CSS Output, → Vite Plugin
+
+5. **Contextual Variables**
+   - Intent: API reference — declareContextualVars for runtime-resolved variables
+   - APIs covered: `system#ThemeBuilder.declareContextualVars`
+   - Components: `<MethodCard>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: These are CSS variables that get set dynamically (e.g., `--current-bg` set by the `bg` prop). Not emitted as part of the theme — declared as available.
+   - Cross-refs: → System Props & Groups (currentVar on prop config)

+
+- **File:** `content/architecture/color-modes.mdx`
+- **URL:** `/docs/architecture/color-modes`
+- **Diataxis:** How-To
+- **Reader context:** Developer who has a theme and wants dark/light modes (or more). Understands CSS custom properties and `prefers-color-scheme`.
+- **Objective:** Reader can define color modes, switch between them at runtime, and understand how mode aliases resolve to CSS variables.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **Defining Color Palettes**
+   - Intent: Pattern demo — addColors with nested scales
+   - APIs covered: `system#ThemeBuilder.addColors`
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<LivePreview>`
+   - Edge cases: Colors must be valid CSS colors (validated at build time). Three levels of nesting allowed.
+   - Cross-refs: → Theming & Tokens
+
+2. **Adding Color Modes**
+   - Intent: API reference — addColorModes config shape, initial mode, alias structure
+   - APIs covered: `system#ThemeBuilder.addColorModes`, `system#ColorModeConfig`
+   - Components: `<MethodCard>`, `<ParamTable>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: Aliases must reference existing color paths. Mode names become `[data-color-mode="name"]` selectors. Initial mode is the default (no attribute needed).
+   - Cross-refs: → Theme Extension (extending modes)
+
+3. **Switching Modes at Runtime**
+   - Intent: How-to — set `data-color-mode` attribute, React integration pattern
+   - APIs covered: (no new API — DOM attribute pattern)
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<LivePreview>`, `<Callout variant="tip">`
+   - Edge cases: Mode switching is pure CSS — no JS runtime cost. The attribute goes on `<html>` or any ancestor element.
+   - Cross-refs: → Global Styles (scheme-color-mode integration)
+
+4. **Color Patterns & Workarounds**
+   - Intent: Cookbook — common patterns for working with colors beyond basic token refs
+   - APIs covered: (patterns using existing APIs)
+   - Components: `<CodeExample>`, `<BeforeAfter>`, `<Callout variant="tip">`
+   - Edge cases: **Opacity syntax**: `'{colors.fire.500/8}'` applies 8% opacity to a color token — works with any emitted color token. **Scheme binding**: use variant CSS custom properties (`--color-scheme-50` through `--color-scheme-950`) to remap an entire color scale per variant, then reference `scheme.500` in other styles — enables one `kind` variant to work across all `color` variants. **Contextual variables**: `current-bg` is set by the `bg` prop (via `currentVar` in prop config) — child components can reference it for contextual inheritance. **`currentColor`**: use in scale values like borders/rings for automatic color inheritance.
+   - Cross-refs: → Theming & Tokens (contextual variables), → System Props & Groups (currentVar on color group)

+
+- **File:** `content/architecture/system-setup.mdx`
+- **URL:** `/docs/architecture/system-setup`
+- **Diataxis:** Tutorial
+- **Reader context:** Developer who has a theme and wants to set up their full `ds.ts` module. Has completed Getting Started.
+- **Objective:** Reader can build a complete system with custom groups, selectors, and transforms, and understands the `ds.ts` pattern.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **The ds.ts Pattern**
+   - Intent: Mental model — one system per app, token names as contract
+   - APIs covered: `system#createSystem`, `system#SystemBuilder`
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: System must be a single module that the plugin can import. Path passed to `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })`.
+   - Cross-refs: → Vite Plugin, → Getting Started
+
+2. **Registering Groups**
+   - Intent: API reference — addGroup with pre-built and custom groups
+   - APIs covered: `system#SystemBuilder.addGroup`, `system#SystemBuilder.addProps`
+   - Components: `<MethodCard>`, `<ParamTable>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: Group names must not collide with existing prop names. Overlapping props with identical definitions are allowed. Groups compose — a group can include props from other groups plus custom additions.
+   - Cross-refs: → System Props & Groups (consumption side)
+
+3. **Custom Selectors**
+   - Intent: How-to — registering custom selector aliases
+   - APIs covered: `system#SystemBuilder.addSelectors`
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: Custom selectors override built-in selectors of the same name. New selectors get order 500+ (after all built-in selectors in cascade).
+   - Cross-refs: → States & Selectors
+
+4. **External System Composition**
+   - Intent: API reference — includes() for composing with external systems
+   - APIs covered: `system#SystemBuilder.includes`
+   - Components: `<MethodCard>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<Callout variant="warn">`
+   - Edge cases: `includes()` is cosmetic at the type level — it doesn't merge prop registries. The external system's components are extracted independently. Useful for multi-package design systems.
+   - Cross-refs: → Theme Extension
+
+5. **Building the System**
+   - Intent: API reference — build() output shape
+   - APIs covered: `system#SystemBuilder.build`, `system#SystemInstance`, `system#SerializedConfig`
+   - Components: `<TypeSignature>`, `<ParamTable>`
+   - Edge cases: `build()` returns `{ system, createGlobalStyles }`. `system` is an `Animus` instance enhanced with `toConfig()`. `toConfig()` serializes the prop registry, group registry, and transforms for the extraction pipeline.
+   - Cross-refs: → Global Styles

+- **File:** `content/architecture/theme-extension.mdx`
+- **URL:** `/docs/architecture/theme-extension`
+- **Diataxis:** How-To
+- **Reader context:** Developer consuming a design system library that ships Animus components. Wants to extend the theme with their own tokens without breaking the library's token vocabulary.
+- **Objective:** Reader can extend a theme with `.from()`, override scales with `extendScale()`, and augment the Theme type via module declaration.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **The .from() Pattern**
+   - Intent: Pattern demo — selective theme spread from an existing built theme
+   - APIs covered: `system#ThemeBuilder.from`
+   - Components: `<CodeExample>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: `.from()` does a deep merge — breakpoints, scales, and color modes from the source are preserved. New scales override by key. `.from()` must be called before `addColors()` if the source has colors.

+2. **Extending Scales**
+   - Intent: API reference — extendScale for adding values to existing scales
+   - APIs covered: `system#ThemeBuilder.extendScale`
+   - Components: `<MethodCard>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: The update function receives the current scale values and returns the merged result. Type narrows to include both original and new values.
+   - Cross-refs: → Theming & Tokens
+
+3. **Type Augmentation**
+   - Intent: How-to — declare module for TypeScript autocomplete
+   - APIs covered: `system#Theme` (augmentable interface)
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<Callout variant="warn">`
+   - Edge cases: Without augmentation, typed props (`bg`, `color`, etc.) won't autocomplete scale values. The augmentation must extend the `Theme` interface from `@animus-ui/system`.
+   - Cross-refs: → TypeScript Integration
+
+4. **Theme Merge Semantics**
+   - Intent: Explanation — how MergeTheme works, what's mergeable, what gets overwritten
+   - APIs covered: `system#MergeTheme`, `system#Merge`, `system#Mergable`, `system#Assign`, `system#AssignValueIfUnmergable`
+   - Components: `<APIBlock>`, `<ParamTable>`
+   - Edge cases: Functions, arrays, primitives are NOT deep-merged (assigned directly). Only plain objects get 2-level deep merge. Breakpoints are always preserved from the base.
+   - Cross-refs: → TypeScript Integration

+
+- **File:** `content/architecture/global-styles.mdx` **(NEW)**
+- **URL:** `/docs/architecture/global-styles`
+- **Diataxis:** How-To
+- **Reader context:** Developer who has a system and wants to define global/reset styles that integrate with the extraction pipeline. Understands CSS resets and global rule concepts.
+- **Objective:** Reader can define global styles, understand how they serialize for extraction, and knows the reset/global layer structure.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **The createGlobalStyles Factory**
+   - Intent: API reference — factory returned from SystemBuilder.build()
+   - APIs covered: `system#GlobalStylesFactory`, `system#GlobalStyleBlock`, `system#GlobalStyleMap`
+   - Components: `<TypeSignature>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: The factory is returned from `build()`, not imported separately. Styles use the same prop shorthand as component styles (`bg` → `background-color`). Transforms are resolved via subprocess at build time.
+   - Cross-refs: → System Setup, → Static Extraction & CSS Output
+
+2. **Reset & Global Layer Structure**
+   - Intent: Explanation — how global styles map to @layer global
+   - APIs covered: `system#GlobalStyleBlock.serialize`
+   - Components: `<CodeExample>`, `<BeforeAfter>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: Global styles are serialized differently from component styles — the `serialize()` method resolves prop shorthand using the system's prop config and transforms. The output goes into `@layer global`, which sits below all component layers.
+   - Cross-refs: → Static Extraction & CSS Output
+
+3. **Keyframes & Animations**
+   - Intent: Pattern demo — defining keyframes in global styles
+   - APIs covered: (pattern, not new API)
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<Callout variant="tip">`
+   - Edge cases: Keyframe definitions use `@keyframes name` as keys in the global style map. Animation references in component styles use the keyframe name directly.

+
+- **File:** `content/authoring/base-styling.mdx`
+- **URL:** `/docs/authoring/base-styling`
+- **Diataxis:** How-To
+- **Reader context:** Developer who has a working system and wants to author their first styled component. Understands CSS properties.
+- **Objective:** Reader can use `ds.styles()` to define base component styles with themed values, token references, responsive properties, and selector-based nesting.
+- **Static constraint callout:** This page (and all authoring pages 9-12) must include a prominent standard callout: "All style values must be static string literals. Dynamic values are skipped per-property at extraction time. See Static Extraction & CSS Output for details."
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **ds.styles() — The Entry Point**
+   - Intent: API reference — config shape, themed CSS property resolution
+   - APIs covered: `system#Animus.styles`, `system#ThemedCSSProps`, `system#CSSProps`
+   - Components: `<TypeSignature>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: Style values must be **static string literals** for extraction. No template literals, no function calls, no variables. Token refs (`primary`, `{colors.primary.500}`) resolve at extraction time.
+   - Cross-refs: → Theming & Tokens (token path syntax)
+
+2. **Responsive Values**
+   - Intent: Pattern demo — breakpoint array syntax and media query map
+   - APIs covered: `system#ResponsiveProp`, `system#MediaQueryMap`
+   - Components: `<CodeExample>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: Array syntax uses theme breakpoints in order. Object syntax uses breakpoint keys. `_` key is the base (no media query). Values must still be static.
+   - Cross-refs: → Theming & Tokens (addBreakpoints)
+
+3. **Selector Nesting in Styles**
+   - Intent: Pattern demo — using selector aliases and raw selectors within style objects
+   - APIs covered: `system#SelectorAliasProps`
+   - Components: `<CodeExample>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: Selector aliases (`_hover`, `_focus`) work within style objects, not just in `.states()`. Any CSS selector string can also be used as a key (e.g., `'& > div'`). Selector alias props are type-safe.
+   - Cross-refs: → States & Selectors
+
+4. **CSS Object Shape**
+   - Intent: API reference — CSSObject recursive structure
+   - APIs covered: `system#CSSObject`
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: Nested objects produce nested selectors. String values produce CSS declarations. Number values are auto-unitified for length properties.

+### Page 9: Variants, Compounds & States
+
+- **File:** `content/authoring/variants-states.mdx`
+- **URL:** `/docs/authoring/variants-states`
+- **Diataxis:** How-To
+- **Reader context:** Developer who can write base styles and wants conditional styling. Understands the concept of variants (size, color) from other systems.
+- **Objective:** Reader can define named variants, compound conditions, and boolean state toggles, and understands the three conditional styling tools and when to use each.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **Three Tools for Conditional Styles**
+   - Intent: Decision guide FIRST — map before territory
+   - APIs covered: (overview, not detailed API)
+   - Components: `<TabGroup>` (side-by-side comparison), `<Callout variant="tip">`, `<ParamTable>`
+   - Edge cases: Variants = enumerable named options (size: sm/md/lg) — consumer picks from a list. States = boolean toggles for UI state (isLoading, isOpen, copied) — component controls internally. Compounds = multi-variant cross-conditions (size=lg AND color=danger). The same visual effect CAN be achieved with either — choose based on semantic intent. **States are NOT CSS pseudo-class sugar** — they're boolean props, not selectors. Selector aliases (`_hover`, `_focus`) are a separate orthogonal concept (see Selectors & Nesting).
+   - Cross-refs: → Selectors & Nesting (selector aliases are NOT states), → Composition (shared variants)
+
+2. **Named Variants**
+   - Intent: API reference — .variant() config shape
+   - APIs covered: `system#AnimusWithBase.variant`, `system#VariantConfig`
+   - Components: `<MethodCard>`, `<ParamTable>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<LivePreview>`
+   - Edge cases: `prop` key overrides the prop name (defaults to a generated name). `defaultVariant` sets the fallback when no prop is provided. `base` styles apply to ALL variant options (merged before specific variant styles). Variants can be chained — multiple `.variant()` calls. Empty variant values (`{}`) are valid for semantic grouping without visual change.
+   - Cross-refs: → Builder Chain (type-state ordering)
+
+3. **Compound Conditions**
+   - Intent: API reference — .compound() for multi-variant conditions
+   - APIs covered: `system#AnimusWithVariants.compound`, `system#CompoundEntry`
+   - Components: `<MethodCard>`, `<ParamTable>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: Conditions are AND-combined. Each condition key maps to a variant prop, value can be a single string OR an array of strings (any-match). Compound styles have higher specificity than individual variants (@layer compounds sits above @layer variants). Can chain multiple `.compound()` calls.
+   - Cross-refs: → Static Extraction & CSS Output (@layer ordering)
+
+4. **Boolean States**
+   - Intent: API reference + mental model — .states() as boolean prop toggles
+   - APIs covered: `system#AnimusWithCompounds.states`, `system#ThemedCSSPropMap`
+   - Components: `<MethodCard>`, `<ParamTable>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<LivePreview>`
+   - Edge cases: State keys are arbitrary semantic names (`active`, `copied`, `open`, `bordered`, `collapsed`, `highlighted`) that become **boolean props** on the component. When a state prop is `true`, a class `ComponentName--stateName` is applied. States are filtered from DOM — they never reach the HTML element. States can contain selector aliases (`_hover`) and arbitrary selectors inside their style objects — the state activates the container, the selectors nest within it. Think of states as "manually triggered compounds with a single boolean condition."
+   - Cross-refs: → Selectors & Nesting (selector aliases inside states)
+
+5. **Variant Props in JSX**
+   - Intent: Pattern demo — consuming variants and states as props, TypeScript autocomplete
+   - APIs covered: `system#VariantPropsOf`
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`, `<Callout variant="tip">`
+   - Edge cases: Variant props are automatically typed from the config. State props are typed as `boolean | undefined`. `VariantPropsOf<typeof Component>` extracts variant prop types (not state props) for external use.
+   - Cross-refs: → TypeScript Integration, → Composition (shared variants)

+### Page 10: Selectors & Nesting
+
+- **File:** `content/authoring/selectors.mdx` **(NEW)**
+- **URL:** `/docs/authoring/selectors`
+- **Diataxis:** How-To + Reference
+- **Reader context:** Developer who wants to use CSS pseudo-classes, pseudo-elements, and arbitrary selectors within Animus styles. Understands CSS selectors.
+- **Objective:** Reader knows all 27 built-in selector aliases, can write arbitrary `&` selector constructions, understands cascade ordering, and knows the selector-inside-state nesting pattern.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **Built-in Selector Aliases**
+   - Intent: Reference — all 27 selectors with their CSS equivalents
+   - APIs covered: `system#BUILT_IN_SELECTORS`, `system#BuiltInSelectorAlias`, `system#SelectorAlias`, `system#SelectorAliasMap`
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>` (full reference table), `<TokenBadge>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: ARIA-aware selectors (e.g., `_checked` maps to `:checked, [aria-checked="true"], [data-checked]`). LVHA ordering is enforced by the `order` field. `_disabled` has order 200 — always wins over interactive states. Aliases work in `.styles()`, `.states()`, `.variant()`, and `.compound()` style objects. **Unknown selector aliases are silently dropped during extraction** — if your selector-nested styles are missing from the CSS output, verify the alias name against the built-in list or your custom registrations. There is no warning for unrecognized aliases.
+   - Cross-refs: → Variants, Compounds & States (selectors inside states), → Troubleshooting
+
+2. **Arbitrary `&` Selectors**
+   - Intent: Cookbook — writing complex CSS selectors in style objects
+   - APIs covered: (pattern, not new API)
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`, `<Callout variant="tip">`
+   - Edge cases: Any valid CSS selector string works as a style object key. Common patterns from showcase: `'& > *'` (direct children), `'&:hover [data-attr]'` (descendant targeting on hover), `'&:active:not(:disabled)'` (negation pseudo-class), `'&[data-state="active"]'` (data attribute selector), `'&::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb'` (vendor pseudo-elements), `'&:hover::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb'` (chained pseudo-class + pseudo-element). These are NOT typed — they accept any CSS property map.
+   - Cross-refs: → Base Styling
+
+3. **Selectors Inside States**
+   - Intent: Pattern demo — nesting selector aliases within boolean states
+   - APIs covered: (pattern combining states + selectors)
+   - Components: `<CodeExample>`, `<BeforeAfter>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: A state like `collapsible` can contain `_hover: { bg: '...' }` — the boolean prop activates the state class, and the hover selector nests within it. This is the correct pattern for "hover only when collapsible." States and selectors are orthogonal — states are boolean props, selectors are CSS conditions.
+   - Cross-refs: → Variants, Compounds & States
+
+4. **Custom Selector Registration**
+   - Intent: How-to — defining custom selectors via SystemBuilder
+   - APIs covered: `system#SystemBuilder.addSelectors`
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: Custom selectors get order 500+ (after all built-in). Custom selectors with the same name as a built-in override it. The selector string must include `&` (e.g., `&[data-state="open"]`).
+   - Cross-refs: → System Setup
+
+5. **Cascade Ordering**
+   - Intent: Explanation — how selector order numbers determine specificity
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral — uses SelectorAlias.order)
+   - Components: `<Callout variant="warn">`, `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: Selectors emitted in order-number sequence. `_disabled` (200) always beats `_hover` (30). Custom selectors control cascade position via order values.
+   - Cross-refs: → Static Extraction & CSS Output

+### Page 11: System Props & Groups
+
+- **File:** `content/authoring/system-props.mdx`
+- **URL:** `/docs/authoring/system-props`
+- **Diataxis:** How-To + Reference
+- **Reader context:** Developer who wants to expose design tokens as component props. Understands utility-first patterns (like Chakra/styled-system).
+- **Objective:** Reader can enable system prop groups on components via `.system()`, understands all 13 pre-built groups, and knows how prop shorthand resolves.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **The .system() Method**
+   - Intent: API reference — enabling groups on a component
+   - APIs covered: `system#AnimusWithStates.system`
+   - Components: `<MethodCard>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: The config keys must match group names registered in the system. System props map to `@layer system` — higher specificity than base/variants/states. System props accept responsive values (breakpoint array or media query map).
+   - Cross-refs: → System Setup (addGroup), → Builder Chain
+
+2. **Pre-built Group Reference: `space`**
+   - Intent: Reference — all margin/padding props
+   - APIs covered: `groups#space` (m, mx, my, mt, mb, mr, ml, p, px, py, pt, pb, pr, pl)
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>`, `<TokenBadge variant="prop">`
+   - Edge cases: Margin props support `negative: true` — pass negative scale values. Scale binding: `space` scale.
+   - Cross-refs: → Theming & Tokens (scales)
+
+3. **Pre-built Group Reference: `color`**
+   - Intent: Reference — color and fill props
+   - APIs covered: `groups#color` (color, bg, gradient, borderColor, borderXColor, borderYColor, fill, stroke, plus directional borderColor variants)
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>`, `<TokenBadge variant="prop">`
+   - Edge cases: `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'` — sets a contextual CSS variable that child components can reference. Scale binding: `colors` scale.
+   - Cross-refs: → Theming & Tokens (contextual variables)
+
+4. **Pre-built Group Reference: `typography`**
+   - Intent: Reference — font and text props
+   - APIs covered: `groups#typography` (fontFamily, fontWeight, lineHeight, fontSize, letterSpacing, textAlign, fontStyle, textDecoration, textTransform, whiteSpace)
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>`, `<TokenBadge variant="prop">`
+   - Edge cases: `fontSize` uses `fontSizes` scale. `fontWeight` uses `fontWeights` scale with `strict: false` (allows raw values). `fontFamily` uses `fonts` scale.
+   - Cross-refs: → Custom Props & Transforms (fluid font size transform)
+
+5. **Pre-built Group Reference: `layout`**
+   - Intent: Reference — display, overflow, sizing, plus self-alignment and grid/flex item props
+   - APIs covered: `groups#layout` (display, overflow, overflowX, overflowY, size, width, w, minWidth, minW, maxWidth, maxW, height, h, minHeight, minH, maxHeight, maxH, verticalAlign, plus alignment/grid/flex item props)
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>`, `<TokenBadge variant="prop">`
+   - Edge cases: `size` sets both width and height. Shorthand aliases: `w`=width, `h`=height, `minW`=minWidth, etc. All size props use the `size` transform (numbers 0-1 → percentage, others → px).
+
+6. **Pre-built Group Reference: `flex`**
+   - Intent: Reference — flexbox props
+   - APIs covered: `groups#flex` (flexDirection, flexDir, flexWrap, flex, justifyContent, justifyItems, alignItems, alignContent, justifySelf, alignSelf, gridArea, area, flexBasis, flexShrink, flexGrow, order, gap, rowGap, columnGap)
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>`, `<TokenBadge variant="prop">`
+   - Edge cases: `gap`, `rowGap`, `columnGap` bind to `space` scale. `flexDir` is alias for `flexDirection`. `area` is alias for `gridArea`.
+
+7. **Pre-built Group Reference: `grid`**
+   - Intent: Reference — CSS grid props
+   - APIs covered: `groups#grid` (gridAutoColumns, gridAutoRows, gridTemplateColumns, gridTemplateRows, gridTemplateAreas, gridAutoFlow, flow, cols, rows, autoRows, autoCols, alignAll, plus alignment/grid item/gap props)
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>`, `<TokenBadge variant="prop">`
+   - Edge cases: `cols` and `rows` use `gridItemRatio` transform — accepts ratio notation (e.g., `"1:2:1"`). `flow` accepts union: `'row' | 'column' | 'dense'`. `alignAll` sets both `justifyContent` and `alignItems`.
+
+8. **Pre-built Group Reference: `border`**
+   - Intent: Reference — border props
+   - APIs covered: `groups#border` (border, borderX, borderY, borderTop/Right/Bottom/Left, borderWidth variants, borderRadius/rounded variants, borderStyle variants)
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>`, `<TokenBadge variant="prop">`
+   - Edge cases: Border props use `borderShorthand` transform — numeric values become `Npx solid currentColor`. Radius props use `size` transform. `rounded` is alias for `borderRadius`. Most border props have `strict: false`.
+
+9. **Pre-built Group Reference: `positioning`**
+   - Intent: Reference — position, inset, z-index, opacity
+   - APIs covered: `groups#positioning` (position, pos, inset, top, right, bottom, left, zIndex, opacity)
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>`, `<TokenBadge variant="prop">`
+   - Edge cases: Inset/direction props use `size` transform with `negative: true`. `zIndex` binds to `zIndices` scale. `opacity` binds to `opacities` scale.
+
+10. **Pre-built Group Reference: `shadows`, `background`, `transitions`, `mode`, `vars`**
+    - Intent: Reference — remaining groups
+    - APIs covered: `groups#shadows` (boxShadow, shadow, textShadow), `groups#background` (background, backgroundImage, bgImage, backgroundSize, bgSize, backgroundRepeat, bgRepeat, backgroundPosition, bgPos), `groups#transitions` (transition, animation, animationPlayState), `groups#mode` (mode), `groups#vars` (vars)
+    - Components: `<ParamTable>`, `<TokenBadge variant="prop">`
+    - Edge cases: `shadow` is alias for `boxShadow`. Background aliases: `bgImage`, `bgSize`, `bgRepeat`, `bgPos`. `mode` prop binds to `mode` scale (for color mode switching on individual components). `vars` prop sets CSS variables directly.

+
+- **File:** `content/authoring/custom-props.mdx` **(NEW)**
+- **URL:** `/docs/authoring/custom-props`
+- **Diataxis:** How-To
+- **Reader context:** Developer who wants to define custom component props beyond pre-built groups, or needs custom value transforms. Understands CSS custom properties.
+- **Objective:** Reader can define custom props with scale binding, variable declaration, and custom transforms, and can create reusable named transforms.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **The .props() Method**
+   - Intent: API reference — custom prop config shape
+   - APIs covered: `system#AnimusWithSystem.props`, `system#CustomPropConfig`, `system#Prop`
+   - Components: `<MethodCard>`, `<ParamTable>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: Custom props map to `@layer custom` (highest component specificity). Each prop needs at minimum a `property` key. Optional: `properties` (multiple CSS properties), `scale` (theme scale binding), `variable` (CSS variable name), `transform` (value transform function).
+   - Cross-refs: → System Props & Groups, → Builder Chain
+
+2. **Scale Binding**
+   - Intent: Pattern demo — binding custom props to theme scales
+   - APIs covered: `system#ThemedScale`, `system#ThemedScaleValue`, `system#ScaleValue`, `system#Scale`
+   - Components: `<CodeExample>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: The `scale` key references a theme scale name. Values autocomplete to scale keys. `strict: false` allows raw CSS values alongside scale keys (default for most props).
+   - Cross-refs: → Theming & Tokens (scale definition)
+
+3. **Built-in Transforms**
+   - Intent: Reference — all 6 built-in transform functions
+   - APIs covered: `system#size`, `system#borderShorthand`, `system#gridItem`, `system#gridItemRatio`, `system#percentageOrAbsolute`
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>`, `<CodeExample>`, `<TokenBadge variant="method">`
+   - Edge cases: `size`: numbers 0-1 → percentage, >1 → px, strings with calc() → passthrough. `borderShorthand`: number → `Npx solid currentColor`. `gridItem`: `max`→`max-content`, `min`→`min-content`, number→`Nfr`. `gridItemRatio`: `"1:2:1"` → grid template with repeat compression.
+   - Cross-refs: → System Props & Groups (groups that use these transforms)
+
+4. **Creating Custom Transforms**
+   - Intent: API reference — createTransform factory
+   - APIs covered: `system#createTransform`, `system#NamedTransform`, `system#TransformFn`
+   - Components: `<TypeSignature>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: Transforms must be **named** (the `name` argument becomes `transformName` on the function). Named transforms are serializable by name — the extraction pipeline resolves them via subprocess. Anonymous transforms (inline functions) work at runtime but emit `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders that require subprocess resolution.
+   - Cross-refs: → Static Extraction & CSS Output (transform resolution)
+
+5. **Real-World Transform Examples**
+   - Intent: Pattern demo — fluid and ratio transforms from ds.ts
+   - APIs covered: (patterns using createTransform)
+   - Components: `<CodeExample>`, `<BeforeAfter>`
+   - Edge cases: `fluid` transform: parses `"min-max"`, calculates CSS `clamp()`. `ratio` transform: converts `"1:1"` to `"1 / 1"` for aspect-ratio.

+- **Objective:** Reader can compose components into families with shared variant propagation and understands the sealed output contract.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **compose() Overview**
+   - Intent: Mental model — what composition solves, slot concept
+   - APIs covered: `system#compose`
+   - Components: `<TypeSignature>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<ChainStep>`
+   - Edge cases: The first slot must be named `Root` (throws otherwise). Composed output is **sealed** — no `.extend()` available on composed components.
+   - Cross-refs: → Builder Chain (individual component authoring)
+
+2. **Shared Variant Propagation**
+   - Intent: API reference — shared config, context propagation
+   - APIs covered: `system#SharedConfig`, `system#ComposedFamily`
+   - Components: `<MethodCard>`, `<ParamTable>`, `<CodeExample>`, `<LivePreview>`
+   - Edge cases: `shared` keys must exist on Root's variant config (type-validated). Children can override shared values via direct props. Without `context: true`, shared props are CSS-only (no React context overhead). With `context: true`, React context is created for runtime propagation.
+   - Cross-refs: → Variants & Compounds
+
+3. **Slot Component Behavior**
+   - Intent: Explanation — how Root vs Child slots differ
+   - APIs covered: `system#AnyBrandedComponent`, `system#ConsumerProps`, `system#VariantConfigBrand`
+   - Components: `<CodeExample>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: Root extracts shared props, wraps children in context provider (when `context: true`). Children read context, merge with direct props (direct wins). DisplayNames follow `FamilyName.SlotName` pattern.
+   - Cross-refs: → Framework Agnostic (asChild on composed components)
+
+4. **Extension vs Composition**
+   - Intent: Decision guide — when to .extend() vs compose() vs build new
+   - APIs covered: `system#AnimusWithAll.extend` (narrative home — reference on Page 19)
+   - Components: `<TabGroup>`, `<CodeExample>`, `<Callout variant="tip">`
+   - Edge cases: `.extend()` creates a new chain inheriting all parent styles/variants/states — use for specialized versions of one component (BaseButton → PrimaryButton). `compose()` creates sealed multi-slot families — use for compound UI patterns (Card/Header/Body). Building from scratch is correct when the components share no styling. `.extend()` works across files — import a component and call `.extend()`. Cross-package extension requires source (.ts) access for extraction (compiled .mjs alone is insufficient — see Vite/Next.js plugin external package support).

+
+5. **Working Around Sealed Output**
+   - Intent: Escape hatches for composed families
+   - APIs covered: (patterns, not new API)
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: Composed output is sealed (no `.extend()`). Workarounds: (1) use `asChild` on individual slots to merge with external styling, (2) expose individual slot components alongside the composed family for downstream composition, (3) use system props (`.system()`) for one-off overrides if the slots have system prop groups enabled. Library authors should export both the composed family AND the individual slot components.

+6. **Type Safety in Composition**
+   - Intent: How-to — extracting variant props from composed families
+   - APIs covered: `system#VariantPropsOf` (applied to composed)
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<Callout variant="tip">`
+   - Edge cases: `VariantPropsOf` works on both individual and composed components. On composed components, it extracts the Root's variant props (which include shared keys).

+
+- **File:** `content/authoring/recipes.mdx` **(NEW)**
+- **URL:** `/docs/authoring/recipes`
+- **Diataxis:** How-To
+- **Reader context:** Developer who has read the individual concept pages and wants to see how they combine in real components. Wants complete examples, not isolated API demos.
+- **Objective:** Reader can build production-quality components by combining variants, states, selectors, system props, composition, and extension in realistic patterns.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **Button: Variants + States + Selectors + Extension**
+   - Intent: Full component build — the most common complex pattern
+   - APIs covered: (combines APIs from pages 8-12)
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<LivePreview>`, `<ChainStep>`
+   - Edge cases: Multi-variant layering (color + kind + size). Color scheme remapping via CSS custom properties in variants. States for `isLoading`/`isDisabled`. Selector nesting: `'&:active:not(:disabled)'`. Extension: `Button.extend().asElement('a')` for ButtonLink. System props for one-off spacing overrides.
+   - Cross-refs: → Variants & States, → Selectors, → Base Styling
+
+2. **Card Family: Composition + Shared Variants**
+   - Intent: Multi-slot composition pattern
+   - APIs covered: (combines compose + variants)
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<LivePreview>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: `compose()` with `shared: { density: true }`. Each slot defines matching variant independently. Sealed output — export individual slots alongside family for downstream flexibility.
+   - Cross-refs: → Composition
+
+3. **Input: States + Selectors + Custom Props**
+   - Intent: Form component pattern — boolean states + pseudo-class styling
+   - APIs covered: (combines states + selectors + custom props)
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<LivePreview>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: States for `isInvalid`/`isDisabled`/`isFocused`. Selector aliases for `:placeholder`, `:focus-visible`. Custom prop for label positioning. Aria-aware selectors (`_invalid` maps to `:invalid, [aria-invalid="true"]`).
+   - Cross-refs: → States & Selectors, → Custom Props
+
+4. **Color Scheme Patterns**
+   - Intent: Cookbook — common color workarounds and techniques
+   - APIs covered: (patterns using existing APIs)
+   - Components: `<CodeExample>`, `<BeforeAfter>`, `<Callout variant="tip">`
+   - Edge cases: **Opacity syntax**: `'{colors.fire.500/8}'` for transparent color variants. **Scheme binding**: use variant CSS custom properties to remap an entire color scale per variant (the Button pattern). **Contextual variables**: `current-bg` set by `bg` prop, readable by children. **Multiple approaches**: same visual effect via variant vs state vs system prop — comparison table.

+
+- **File:** `content/compiler/vite-plugin.mdx`
+- **URL:** `/docs/compiler/vite-plugin`
+- **Diataxis:** Reference
+- **Reader context:** Developer integrating Animus into a Vite project. Has a working system (ds.ts). Needs to configure the plugin correctly.
+- **Objective:** Reader can configure all plugin options, import virtual CSS, debug extraction issues, and understands the plugin lifecycle.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **Installation & Basic Config**
+   - Intent: Mechanical setup
+   - APIs covered: `vite-plugin#animusExtract`
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<Callout variant="warn">`
+   - Edge cases: No React resolve aliases in vite.config. Plugin must come after React plugin. **bun is a hard prerequisite** — required for subprocess execution (system loading, global style resolution, transform resolution). Must be installed and available on PATH. Without bun, the build will fail with a cryptic subprocess spawn error.
+   - Cross-refs: → Getting Started
+
+2. **Configuration Options**
+   - Intent: Reference — all config options with types and defaults
+   - APIs covered: `vite-plugin#AnimusExtractOptions` (system, include, exclude, strict, verbose, targets, minify, prefix, layers)
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>`, `<APIBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: `strict: true` for CI (throws instead of warns). `verbose: true` or `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1` env var. `layers` must include all 7 Animus layers as a subsequence. `targets` accepts browserslist query. `prefix` namespaces both CSS variables and class names.
+   - Cross-refs: → Next.js Plugin (shared options)
+
+3. **Virtual Modules**
+   - Intent: Reference — what virtual modules exist and when they're served
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral — virtual:animus/styles.css, virtual:animus/system-props)
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: `virtual:animus/styles.css` is the compiled CSS — import it in your app entry. `virtual:animus/system-props` is internal (consumed by runtime). Dev mode serves additional HMR bridge module.
+   - Cross-refs: → Static Extraction & CSS Output
+
+4. **Plugin Lifecycle**
+   - Intent: Explanation — buildStart → resolveId/load → transform → HMR
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral)
+   - Components: `<ChainStep>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: System loaded via bun subprocess at buildStart. Results held in memory — restart dev server after system changes. Content-hash HMR skip for unchanged files. Geological reset on system file change.
+   - Cross-refs: → Troubleshooting
+
+5. **Debugging & Diagnostics**
+   - Intent: How-to — diagnosing extraction issues
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral — ANIMUS_DEBUG, verbose, strict)
+   - Components: `<Callout variant="warn">`, `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: Stale `.vite` cache after NAPI changes. `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders in CSS mean transform resolution failed. `[skip]` markers in extraction errors indicate per-property bail.

+- **Reader context:** Developer integrating Animus into a Next.js project. Has a working system. Needs webpack integration.
+- **Objective:** Reader can configure withAnimus, understand the .animus/ directory, and debug Next.js-specific issues.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **Installation & Config**
+   - Intent: Mechanical setup — withAnimus wrapper pattern
+   - APIs covered: `next-plugin#withAnimus`
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: Works with both `next.config.ts` (ESM) and `next.config.js` (CJS) — dual format packaging. Composes with existing webpack function if present.
+   - Cross-refs: → Vite Plugin (shared concepts)
+
+2. **Configuration Options**
+   - Intent: Reference — all config options
+   - APIs covered: `next-plugin#AnimusNextOptions` (system, exclude, strict, verbose, prefix, layers)
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>`, `<APIBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: Subset of Vite plugin options (no `include`, `targets`, `minify`). `prefix` and `layers` work identically to Vite plugin.
+   - Cross-refs: → Vite Plugin (option details)
+
+3. **The .animus/ Directory**
+   - Intent: Explanation — what's generated, gitignore requirement
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral)
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<Callout variant="warn">`
+   - Edge cases: `.animus/` contains `styles.css`, `system-props.js`, and manifest JSON. Must be in `.gitignore`. Created automatically on first build. Webpack alias maps `.animus/styles.css` to absolute path.
+   - Cross-refs: → Troubleshooting
+
+4. **External DS Package Support**
+   - Intent: Explanation — how external packages with builder chains are processed
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral — NormalModuleReplacementPlugin)
+   - Components: `<Callout variant="info">`, `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: External DS packages are redirected from dist/ (.mjs) to src/ (.ts) entries so the loader can process builder chains. The loader allows .mjs files from external DS package directories.
+
+5. **SSR, RSC & Streaming**
+   - Intent: Production story — how extracted CSS works with server rendering
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral)
+   - Components: `<Callout variant="info">`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<Callout variant="tip">`
+   - Edge cases: Extracted CSS is static — it's a regular CSS file, not injected at render time. This means: (1) **No hydration mismatches** — class names are stable (generated from `filename::binding` hash, not style content), same on server and client. (2) **RSC compatible** — Animus components are regular React components with className props; no client-only hooks in the styling layer. The `createComponent` runtime uses `forwardRef` but no `useEffect`/`useLayoutEffect`/`useInsertionEffect`. (3) **No FOUC** — CSS is available before first paint (loaded as a regular stylesheet, not injected). (4) **Streaming SSR** — CSS file is linked in `<head>`, available for all streamed chunks. (5) **Remix** — same principles apply via the Vite plugin (`animusExtract`); `virtual:animus/styles.css` is imported in root route and served as a static asset. Note: the `compose()` runtime with `context: true` does use React context, which requires `'use client'` in RSC environments for those specific composed families.

+- **Reader context:** Developer who wants full TypeScript autocomplete and type safety. Comfortable with TypeScript generics and module augmentation.
+- **Objective:** Reader can augment the Theme interface, extract variant props, use utility types, and understand the type-state machine.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **Theme Augmentation**
+   - Intent: How-to — declare module pattern
+   - APIs covered: `system#Theme` (augmentable interface)
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`, `<Callout variant="warn">`
+   - Edge cases: Must be in a `.d.ts` file or a file with no imports/exports. Without augmentation, scale-bound props autocomplete to `string | number` instead of specific scale keys.
+   - Cross-refs: → Theme Extension
+
+2. **Extracting Component Types**
+   - Intent: How-to — VariantPropsOf and component type utilities
+   - APIs covered: `system#VariantPropsOf`, `system#AnimusComponent`, `system#AnimusWrappedComponent`
+   - Components: `<TypeSignature>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: `VariantPropsOf` works on both `.asElement()` and `.asComponent()` output. On composed families, it extracts Root variant props only.
+   - Cross-refs: → Variants & Compounds, → Composition
+
+3. **System Prop Types**
+   - Intent: Reference — type utilities for system props
+   - APIs covered: `system#SystemProps`, `system#ParserProps`, `system#AbstractParser`, `system#Parser`
+   - Components: `<TypeSignature>`, `<ParamTable>`
+   - Edge cases: `SystemProps<P>` strips the theme prop from parser props. `ParserProps<Config>` produces the full prop type including theme.
+   - Cross-refs: → System Props & Groups
+
+4. **Path & Scale Types**
+   - Intent: Reference — deep path traversal types
+   - APIs covered: `system#FindPath`, `system#Path`, `system#PathValue`, `system#PathToLiteral`, `system#LiteralPaths`, `system#KeyAsVariable`, `system#SanitizeKey`
+   - Components: `<TypeSignature>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: These types power the `EmittedTokenPaths` union — they recursively traverse the theme type to produce valid dot-path strings. `LiteralPaths` filters to paths ending in primitives only.
+   - Cross-refs: → Theming & Tokens
+
+5. **Prop & Config Types**
+   - Intent: Reference — all remaining config and prop types
+   - APIs covered: `system#AbstractProps`, `system#ThemeProps`, `system#NarrowPrimitive`, `system#ArrayScale`, `system#MapScale`
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>`
+   - Edge cases: `NarrowPrimitive<T>` is `T & {}` — prevents TypeScript from widening literal types. `AbstractProps` is `ThemeProps<Record<string, unknown>>`.

+
+- **File:** `content/advanced/framework-agnostic.mdx`
+- **URL:** `/docs/advanced/framework-agnostic`
+- **Diataxis:** How-To
+- **Reader context:** Developer who wants to use Animus without React components, or integrate with headless UI libraries (Radix, Ark UI). Understands composition patterns.
+- **Objective:** Reader can use `.asClass()` for framework-agnostic styling, `asChild` for headless UI composition, and `createComponent`/`createClassResolver` for runtime integration.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **`.asClass()` — No React Required**
+   - Intent: API reference — class resolver terminal
+   - APIs covered: `system#AnimusWithAll.asClass`
+   - Components: `<TypeSignature>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: Returns `(props?) => string`. No React component created. Works with any framework that accepts class names. Props include variant keys and system prop keys.
+   - Cross-refs: → Builder Chain
+
+2. **`asChild` — Headless Composition**
+   - Intent: Pattern demo — merging Animus styling onto headless UI components
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral — `asChild` prop on AnimusComponent)
+   - Components: `<CodeExample>`, `<BeforeAfter>`, `<Callout variant="tip">`
+   - Edge cases: `asChild` merges className and style onto the single child element. The child must accept `className` prop. Works with Radix, Ark UI, and any headless library. No wrapper div emitted.
+   - Cross-refs: → Composition
+
+3. **`as` Prop — Dynamic Elements**
+   - Intent: Pattern demo — changing the rendered HTML element
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral — `as` prop on AnimusComponent)
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: `as` accepts any HTML tag or React component. TypeScript narrows element-specific props based on the `as` value. Works on `.asElement()` output only.
+
+4. **Runtime API**
+   - Intent: Reference — createComponent and createClassResolver
+   - APIs covered: `system#createComponent`, `system#createClassResolver`
+   - Components: `<TypeSignature>`, `<ParamTable>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: These are the **output** of extraction — the plugin replaces builder chains with `createComponent()` calls. Not typically called directly by consumers. Useful for understanding what extracted code looks like.

+
+- **File:** `content/advanced/extraction.mdx` **(NEW)**
+- **URL:** `/docs/advanced/extraction`
+- **Diataxis:** Explanation
+- **Reader context:** Developer who wants to understand how Animus extracts styles at build time. May be debugging extraction issues or evaluating Animus's approach.
+- **Objective:** Reader understands the 6-phase extraction pipeline, @layer CSS structure, per-property skip model, stable class name generation, and dev vs prod differences.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **The Extraction Pipeline**
+   - Intent: Mental model — 6 phases from source to CSS
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral — extraction internals)
+   - Components: `<ChainStep>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: Two AST parses per file (chain walking + JSX scanning). Cross-file import resolution for `.extend()` chains. Unused variants/states pruned by reconciler. **JSX spread attributes (`{...props}`) are invisible to the scanner** — variant props passed only via spread may cause the reconciler to prune variant CSS that appears unused.
+   - Cross-refs: → Vite Plugin (lifecycle)
+
+2. **The Serialization Pipeline**
+   - Intent: Mental model — how data flows through TS → JSON → subprocess → Rust → CSS
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral — serialization boundaries)
+   - Components: `<ChainStep>` (visual pipeline diagram), `<Callout variant="warn">`
+   - Edge cases: Four serialization boundaries: (1) TS builder chain → `serialize()` → JSON strings. (2) JSON → bun subprocess → stdout. (3) JSON → Rust NAPI `serde_json::Value`. (4) Rust CSS output → virtual module string. Transform functions are **NOT serializable** — they're live JS that the subprocess must execute, which is why transforms require a separate subprocess step. **Scale miss passthrough**: unresolved scale values (e.g., `bg="nonExistentColor"`) pass through the Rust crate as raw CSS strings with no validation — if the value isn't valid CSS, the result is silent invalid CSS with no warning. The `strict` flag is TS-side only; the Rust crate always passes through unresolved values.
+   - Cross-refs: → Theming & Tokens (serialization contract), → Custom Props & Transforms (transform resolution)
+
+3. **@layer CSS Structure**
+   - Intent: Explanation — layer hierarchy, specificity model
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral — CSS output)
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: Layer order: global < base < variants < compounds < states < system < custom. Variables (`:root {}`) are NOT layered. Consumer `layers` option can interleave additional layers. Sublayers: components within a layer are not explicitly sublayered — cascade relies on source order.
+   - Cross-refs: → Vite Plugin (layers option), → Global Styles
+
+4. **Per-Property Skip Model**
+   - Intent: Explanation — graceful degradation when values aren't static
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral)
+   - Components: `<CodeExample>`, `<BeforeAfter>`, `<Callout variant="warn">`
+   - Edge cases: Non-static values skip THAT PROPERTY only, not the entire style object. Skipped properties become runtime-resolved (dynamic props on the component). This is by design — partial extraction is better than all-or-nothing.
+   - Cross-refs: → Troubleshooting
+
+5. **Stable Class Names**
+   - Intent: Explanation — hash generation, HMR implications
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral)
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: Class names generated from `filename::binding` hash, NOT style values. Editing styles doesn't change class names (critical for HMR — no full-page reload). Pattern: `animus-ComponentName-hash`.
+   - Cross-refs: → Vite Plugin (prefix option)
+
+6. **Dev vs Prod**
+   - Intent: Reference — behavioral differences
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral)
+   - Components: `<TabGroup>` (side-by-side dev/prod), `<ParamTable>`
+   - Edge cases: Dev: per-layer split sheets, HMR with content-hash skip, HMR bridge injection. Prod: single concatenated stylesheet, minified by default. Both: extraction runs in both modes, transforms resolved identically.
+   - Cross-refs: → Vite Plugin (minify, verbose options)
+
+7. **Transform Placeholder Resolution**
+   - Intent: Explanation — __TRANSFORM__ markers and subprocess resolution
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral)
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<Callout variant="warn">`
+   - Edge cases: Rust crate emits `__TRANSFORM__{name}_{rawValue}__` markers. Post-analysis subprocess resolves them. Requires named transforms (anonymous transforms work but emit placeholders). If subprocess fails, placeholders remain in CSS.
+   - Cross-refs: → Custom Props & Transforms, → Troubleshooting

+   - Intent: Reference — the 7-class hierarchy
+   - APIs covered: `system#Animus`, `system#AnimusWithAll`
+   - Components: `<ChainStep>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: Backwards inheritance — each child extends parent but removes preceding methods. This enforces cascade ordering at the type level.

+9. **Extension Chain**
+   - Intent: Reference — AnimusExtended class and its chain
+   - APIs covered: `system#AnimusExtended`, `system#AnimusExtendedWithAll`
+   - Components: `<MethodCard>`, `<TypeSignature>`, `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: Extended chain allows re-entering any builder step. No ordering constraint (can call `.variant()` after `.states()`). Terminal methods available on AnimusExtendedWithAll.

+- **Diataxis:** Reference
+- **Reader context:** Developer experiencing an issue. Wants quick diagnosis and fix.
+- **Objective:** Reader can diagnose and fix common issues using the decision tree.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **Debugging Decision Tree**
+   - Intent: Quick diagnosis flowchart
+   - APIs covered: None
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>` (formatted tree), `<Callout variant="danger">`
+   - Cross-refs: → Vite Plugin, → Next.js Plugin
+
+2. **Cache Clearing**
+   - Intent: Reference — which cache to clear when
+   - APIs covered: None
+   - Components: `<ParamTable>` (cache tiers table), `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Cross-refs: → Vite Plugin
+
+3. **Silent Failure Diagnostics**
+   - Intent: Reference — things that fail WITHOUT errors
+   - APIs covered: None
+   - Components: `<Callout variant="danger">`, `<ParamTable>`
+   - Edge cases: **Scale miss passthrough**: `bg="nonExistentToken"` produces `background-color: nonExistentToken` (invalid CSS, no warning). Check token names against theme scales. **Unknown selector aliases**: `_groupHover` silently dropped — styles vanish with no error. Verify alias names against built-in list or custom registrations. **JSX spread**: `<Box {...props} />` — spread variant props invisible to extraction scanner; reconciler may prune "unused" variant CSS. **Partial extraction**: dynamic values skip per-property, not per-component — some styles work, others don't. Enable `verbose: true` to see skip diagnostics.
+   - Cross-refs: → Static Extraction & CSS Output (per-property skip, serialization pipeline)
+
+4. **Common Error Messages**
+   - Intent: Reference — error → cause → fix
+   - APIs covered: None
+   - Components: `<Callout variant="danger">`, `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: NAPI function errors (wrong arity) → `bun run rebuild`. `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders in CSS → transform subprocess failed, check terminal for `[animus-extract]` warnings, ensure transforms are named via `createTransform()`. `[skip]` markers → per-property bail on non-static values. "component not rendered" → unused component pruned by reconciler. Subprocess spawn error → bun not installed or not on PATH.
+   - Cross-refs: → Static Extraction & CSS Output
+
+5. **Reading Extracted Output**
+   - Intent: How-to — understanding class names, inspecting CSS layers
+   - APIs covered: None
+   - Components: `<SyntaxBlock>`, `<CodeExample>`
+   - Edge cases: Browser devtools: check `virtual:animus/styles.css` network tab. Class name pattern: `animus-ComponentName-hash`. State classes: `ComponentName--stateName`. Variant classes: `ComponentName--propName-value`.

+
+- **File:** `content/support/migration.mdx` **(NEW)**
+- **URL:** `/docs/support/migration`
+- **Diataxis:** How-To
+- **Reader context:** Developer or team lead evaluating Animus for an existing codebase using runtime CSS-in-JS (styled-components, Emotion, Chakra) or utility-first CSS (Tailwind). Needs to understand the migration path and whether incremental adoption is possible.
+- **Objective:** Reader can plan an incremental migration strategy, understands coexistence constraints, and knows the common refactoring patterns.
+
+#### Sections
+
+1. **Can I Adopt Incrementally?**
+   - Intent: Answer the #1 adoption question
+   - APIs covered: (patterns, not new API)
+   - Components: `<Callout variant="tip">`, `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: Yes — Animus components coexist with any other styling system. The extracted CSS is a regular stylesheet; it doesn't conflict with Emotion, styled-components, or Tailwind utilities. You can migrate one component at a time. The per-property skip model means even a partially-static component gets partial extraction benefit.
+   - Cross-refs: → Static Extraction & CSS Output (per-property skip)
+
+2. **Common Refactoring Patterns**
+   - Intent: Cookbook — translating runtime patterns to static equivalents
+   - APIs covered: (patterns)
+   - Components: `<BeforeAfter>`, `<CodeExample>`, `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: **Dynamic values → variants**: `color: ${props.isActive ? 'blue' : 'gray'}` → `.variant({ prop: 'isActive', variants: { true: { color: 'primary' }, false: { color: 'text.muted' } } })`. **Interpolated props → system props**: `padding: ${props.p}px` → enable `space` group via `.system()`. **Theme access → token refs**: `${theme.colors.primary}` → `'primary'` (bare key) or `'{colors.primary}'` (template syntax). **CSS prop → .styles()**: Emotion's `css` prop → `ds.styles()` builder chain.
+   - Cross-refs: → Base Styling, → Variants & States, → System Props
+
+3. **Coexistence Constraints**
+   - Intent: What to watch out for when mixing systems
+   - APIs covered: (behavioral)
+   - Components: `<Callout variant="warn">`, `<SyntaxBlock>`
+   - Edge cases: No React resolve aliases in vite.config (breaks extraction even if other components use React fine). The Vite plugin processes ALL matching files — `exclude` option to skip non-Animus code if needed. CSS specificity: Animus uses @layer; other systems may not — if specificity conflicts arise, use the `layers` option to position Animus layers relative to other CSS.
+   - Cross-refs: → Vite Plugin (exclude, layers options)
+
+4. **Migration Effort Estimation**
+   - Intent: Planning guide for team leads
+   - APIs covered: None
+   - Components: `<Callout variant="info">`
+   - Edge cases: The primary effort is converting dynamic style values to static variants/states. Components with purely static styles migrate trivially. Components with heavy runtime interpolation require the most redesign — the static constraint is the bottleneck, not the API surface.
+   - Cross-refs: → Introduction (the fundamental trade-off)

+## Why
+
+The showcase documentation (20 MDX pages across 6 sections) was written incrementally during development without a systematic coverage contract. Pages overlap in API coverage, use inconsistent depth, and reference APIs that have changed. Before the V1 release candidate merge, documentation needs a clean-slate rewrite with guaranteed API coverage and consistent structure.
+
+Phase 1 (The Cartographer) produces the documentation outline — the structural contract that Phase 2 (docs-scribe) and Phase 3 (docs-auditor) execute against. Without this outline, content generation drifts toward gaps and duplication.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Quarantine 19 existing MDX files by replacing contents with single-heading stubs (preserves dynamic routing, removes stale content)
+- Produce a documentation outline mapping every public API export to exactly one page's coverage checklist
+- Assign Diataxis categories (Tutorial / How-To / Explanation / Reference) to each page
+- Annotate each section with MDX component assignments from the verified 23-component palette
+- Establish cross-reference links between related sections
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `outline-protocol`: The structured outline generation prompt — defines the outline format, coverage contract rules, real component palette, and API surface inventory. This is the repeatable prompt that produces the documentation architecture.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/showcase/src/content/**/*.mdx` — 19 files stubbed (content removed, routing preserved)
+- `support/component-test.mdx` and `pages/Examples.tsx` — preserved unchanged
+- Produces: documentation outline consumed by Phase 2 (docs-scribe)
+- No code changes. No build impact. Documentation process only.

+# Outline Protocol
+
+## Purpose
+
+This spec defines the repeatable prompt for generating the Animus documentation outline. Run this once to produce the structural contract that Phase 2 (expansion) and Phase 3 (validation) execute against.
+
+## The Prompt
+
+```
+You are planning the documentation for Animus, a zero-runtime CSS-in-JS library
+for React. You are producing a DOCUMENTATION OUTLINE — not the docs themselves.
+
+## What Animus Is
+
+Animus uses a builder-pattern API with strict cascade ordering enforced by a
+backwards-inheritance type-state machine. At build time, a Rust extractor
+compiles all styling to static CSS via a Vite plugin. No runtime JS ships to
+the browser.
+
+The builder chain enforces cascade ordering via the type system:
+  ds.styles() → .variant() → .compound() → .states() → .system() → .props()
+Each step maps to a named CSS @layer (base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom).
+
+Terminal methods:
+  .asElement(tag) — HTML element component
+  .asComponent(Component) — wraps existing React component
+  .asClass() — returns className function (no React)
+  .extend() — available on terminal output, creates extension chain
+
+Composition:
+  compose({ Root, Child }, { shared: { variantProp: true } })
+  Distributes shared variant props from Root to Children via context.
+
+Theming:
+  createTheme() → .addScale() → .addBreakpoints() → .addColorModes() → .build()
+  Produces typed token vocabulary + CSS variable declarations.
+
+System setup:
+  createSystem() → .addGroup() → .build()
+  Returns { system: ds, createGlobalStyles }
+
+Extraction:
+  animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts', strict?, verbose? })
+  Vite plugin. Runs in dev and prod. Virtual module: virtual:animus/styles.css
+
+## Quarantine Notice
+
+IMPORTANT: The following MDX content files exist on disk but contain STALE,
+unsystematized content. Do NOT read them. Do NOT reference or attempt to
+preserve their content. Treat them as blank pages to be rewritten.
+
+Quarantined files (all under packages/showcase/src/content/):
+  introduction.mdx, start.mdx,
+  compiler/vite-plugin.mdx, compiler/nextjs-remix.mdx,
+  architecture/theming.mdx, architecture/color-modes.mdx,
+  architecture/system-setup.mdx, architecture/theme-extension.mdx,
+  authoring/base-styling.mdx, authoring/variants-states.mdx,
+  authoring/system-props.mdx, authoring/composition.mdx,
+  advanced/typescript.mdx, advanced/framework-agnostic.mdx,
+  reference/builder-chain.mdx, reference/create-theme.mdx,
+  reference/create-system.mdx, reference/compose.mdx,
+  support/troubleshooting.mdx
+
+PRESERVED (do not modify):
+  support/component-test.mdx (kitchen sink — exercises all doc components)
+  pages/Examples.tsx (interactive test matrices — React component, not MDX)
+
+## Source Material — READ THESE FIRST
+
+Your primary job is DISCOVERY. Read the source to find the full API surface.
+Do not rely solely on the seed inventory below — it is known to be incomplete.
+
+Required reading (read these before writing any outline):
+- packages/system/CLAUDE.md — builder chain, terminals, compose, serialization
+- packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md — plugin lifecycle, config, HMR
+- packages/showcase/CLAUDE.md — showcase structure, verification
+- packages/system/src/index.ts — all public re-exports (THE authoritative surface)
+- packages/system/src/groups/index.ts — pre-built prop group exports
+- packages/theming/src/index.ts — theme builder exports
+- packages/core/src/index.ts — builder chain re-exports
+- packages/core/src/Animus.ts — the 6-class backwards-inheritance chain (read to understand every method)
+- packages/theming/src/ThemeBuilder.ts — every theme builder method
+- packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts — plugin export and config type
+
+Deep reading (pull threads from what you find above):
+- packages/core/src/types.ts — all type exports
+- packages/theming/src/types.ts — theme type exports
+- packages/system/src/selectors.ts — built-in selector aliases
+- packages/system/src/transforms.ts — if exists, named transform definitions
+- packages/showcase/src/ds.ts — real-world system setup (custom transforms, groups, global styles)
+
+## API Surface Discovery
+
+IMPORTANT: The inventory below is a SEED — it is known to be INCOMPLETE.
+You MUST enumerate the full public API surface by reading the actual package
+entry points and source files listed above. Every public export, every method
+on every class, every type export, every config option.
+
+Do not treat this list as exhaustive. Pull every thread. If you find an export
+not on this list, that is ESPECIALLY important — it means coverage was
+previously invisible.
+
+### Seed Inventory (extend from source)
+
+Builder chain methods:
+  ds.styles(baseStyles)
+  .variant({ prop, variants, defaultVariant? })
+  .compound({ conditions, styles })
+  .states({ stateName: styles })
+  .system(systemPropConfig)
+  .props(customPropConfig)
+
+Terminals:
+  .asElement(htmlTag), .asComponent(Component), .asClass()
+
+Post-terminal:
+  .extend() — re-enter builder chain
+  .from() — theme distribution / selective spread
+
+Composition:
+  compose(slotMap, { shared? })
+
+System factory:
+  createSystem() → .addGroup(name, groupConfig) → .build()
+  build() returns { system: ds, createGlobalStyles }
+
+Theme builder:
+  createTheme() → .addScale() → .addBreakpoints() → .addColorModes() → .build()
+  tokens.serialize()
+
+Pre-built groups:
+  space, color, typography, layout, border, position, flex, grid, shadow, size
+
+Plugin:
+  animusExtract({ system, strict?, verbose? })
+
+### Known Gaps in Seed (investigate and document)
+
+These are API surface areas known to exist but NOT yet inventoried. You must
+read source to find and enumerate them:
+
+  - .includes() on system builder (cosmetic group inclusion)
+  - Selector aliases: built-in (_hover, _focus, _disabled, etc.) + custom
+  - Custom named transforms (e.g., fluid, ratio) and how they're registered
+  - asChild pattern for headless composition
+  - Token path syntax: bare keys (primary) vs template ({colors.primary})
+  - Breakpoint array syntax for responsive CSS property values
+  - Prop shorthand resolution (bg → background-color, px → paddingLeft + paddingRight)
+  - Scale binding in custom prop definitions
+  - Type exports: VariantPropsOf, ThemedCSSProps, SharedConfig, EmittedScales,
+    EmittedTokenPaths, and any others found in index.ts
+  - Global styles: createGlobalStyles() factory, reset layer, global layer structure
+  - CSS output structure: @layer nesting, sublayers (standalone/composed), variable CSS
+  - Dev vs prod behavior differences (adopted stylesheet vs file, HMR, cache)
+  - Theme augmentation pattern: declare module '@animus-ui/theming'
+  - Nested selector syntax within style objects
+  - The serialize() contract: what it produces, what consumes it
+
+## MDX Component Palette (verified, real, production-ready)
+
+Use ONLY these component names in outline annotations. All exist and work.
+
+Content display:
+  <SyntaxBlock> — syntax-highlighted code with copy, collapse, line numbers, diff highlighting
+  <CodeExample input="..." output="..." layout="split|stacked"> — input/output comparison
+  <BeforeAfter> — two-pane comparison with header labels and copy buttons
+  <LivePreview preview={} code={} variants={}> — tabbed preview + code with variant toolbar
+
+API documentation:
+  <TypeSignature name="" generics="" params={[]} returns=""> — formatted function signature
+  <MethodCard name="" description="" returnType="" available="" example={}> — accordion method card
+  <ParamTable params={[{ name, type, default, desc }]}> — parameter documentation table
+  <TokenBadge variant="method|layer|type|prop|tag|danger|success"> — inline semantic badge
+  <APIBlock> — bordered container grouping related API docs elements
+
+Annotation:
+  <Callout variant="info|tip|warn|danger" title=""> — contextual callouts
+  <MetricCard value="" unit="" label="" delta={{ value, kind }}> — metric display
+  <BundleBar> — horizontal bar chart for bundle size visualization
+
+Interactive:
+  <ChainStep steps={[]} activeStep={} onStepClick={}> — builder chain step visualizer
+  <TabGroup tabs={[]} activeTab="" onChange={}> — tabbed content switcher
+  <Button color="" kind="" size=""> — styled button for interactive examples
+
+## Outline Format
+
+For each PAGE, provide:
+
+1. **Page title** and **URL slug** (matching docsNav.ts pattern: /docs/section/page)
+2. **Diataxis category**: Tutorial, How-To, Explanation, or Reference
+3. **Reader context**: Who is reading, what they already know, what they're trying to do
+4. **Page objective**: One sentence — what can the reader DO after this page?
+5. **Sections** (ordered). For each section:
+   a. Section heading
+   b. **Intent**: mental model? API reference? pattern demo? edge case warning?
+   c. **APIs covered**: list using format `package#export.method`
+   d. **MDX components**: which components from the palette above
+   e. **Edge cases / non-obvious patterns**: anything a naive pass would miss
+   f. **Cross-references**: other pages/sections to link to
+6. **Coverage checklist**: every API this page is responsible for documenting
+
+## Page Structure — DISCOVERY DRIVEN
+
+The page list below is a STARTING SUGGESTION. The number and boundaries of
+pages must be determined by the API surface you discover, not prescribed in
+advance.
+
+Guidelines for page boundaries:
+- A page should cover a coherent conceptual unit
+- If a page's coverage checklist exceeds ~15 APIs, consider splitting
+- If a page's checklist has fewer than ~3 APIs, consider merging
+- Every page needs enough substance for a senior dev to learn something —
+  no stub pages
+- Add pages freely if an API area has enough depth to warrant its own space
+- The outline MUST justify any deviation from the starting suggestions
+
+Starting suggestions (expected to grow):
+
+  Introduction — Explanation
+  Getting Started — Tutorial
+  System Setup — Tutorial
+  Theming & Tokens — Explanation + Reference
+  Color Modes — How-To
+  The Builder Chain — Explanation
+  Variants & States — How-To
+  System Props & Groups — How-To + Reference
+  Composition — How-To
+  Static Extraction — Explanation
+  Plugin Configuration — Reference
+  TypeScript Integration — How-To
+  Troubleshooting — Reference
+
+Areas likely to need their own pages once fully enumerated:
+  - Selector aliases and nested selectors (if surface is large enough)
+  - Prop shorthand and custom props (if distinct enough from system props)
+  - Theme distribution (.from(), .extend() patterns — if complex enough)
+  - Global styles and CSS output structure
+  - Custom transforms
+  - An API reference catch-all for type exports and utilities not covered
+    narratively
+
+You decide. Let the API surface dictate the page structure.
+
+## Rules
+
+- Every public export discovered in source must appear on exactly ONE
+  page's coverage checklist. No gaps, no duplicates.
+- If an API appears on a narrative page AND could appear on a reference page,
+  the narrative page OWNS primary documentation. Cross-reference only.
+- Mark any API you cannot fully understand from source with [VERIFY].
+- Prefer showing APIs in context (narrative pages) over isolated reference.
+- Do NOT read quarantined MDX files. Start from source code.
+- Pull every thread: if you find a method, read its implementation to
+  understand its config shape, edge cases, and relationship to other methods.
+- If you discover API surface not in the seed inventory, call it out
+  explicitly — these are the highest-value discoveries.
+- The page count is NOT fixed. Add pages as coverage demands. Justify
+  merges if you combine suggested pages.
+```
+
+## Output
+
+The outline is written to a single markdown file. It becomes the contract for Phase 2 (docs-scribe) and the checklist for Phase 3 (docs-auditor).
+
+## Success Criteria
+
+- Every public export discovered in source appears on exactly one page's coverage checklist
+- The outline includes APIs beyond the seed inventory (proof of real discovery)
+- Every page has a Diataxis category
+- Every section has at least one MDX component annotation
+- No section references a component not in the palette
+- Cross-references form a connected graph (no orphan pages)
+- Page boundaries are justified by coverage density, not prescribed

+## Context
+
+Phase 1 (docs-cartographer) produces a structured documentation outline. Each page has: title, Diataxis category, reader context, page objective, ordered sections with intent/API coverage/MDX components/edge cases/cross-references, and a coverage checklist.
+
+Phase 2 takes that contract and produces full MDX content. The creative decisions (what goes where, page framing, API grouping) were made in Phase 1. Phase 2 is disciplined expansion — type signatures first, then examples, then edge cases.
+
+The showcase has 23 verified MDX components. All are real and production-ready. No new components need to be built.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Expand every section in the Phase 1 outline into complete MDX with prose + code
+- Ensure every API on each section's coverage list appears in the output
+- Produce runnable, strictly-typed code examples using real Animus APIs
+- Use MDX components as annotated in the outline (not improvised)
+- Write for senior frontend developers — no filler, no explaining what CSS properties do
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Restructuring pages (that's Phase 1's job — follow the outline)
+- Building new components or modifying existing ones
+- Validating correctness (that's Phase 3's job)
+- Writing marketing copy or philosophical framing beyond what the outline specifies
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Expansion Pattern: Type Signature First
+
+For each API method in a section:
+1. `<TypeSignature>` showing the function/method signature
+2. Minimal example (smallest meaningful usage — 3-5 lines)
+3. Realistic example (how it appears in a real component — 10-20 lines)
+4. Edge cases or gotchas via `<Callout variant="warning">`
+
+This mirrors how experienced developers read docs: shape first, then example, then traps.
+
+### 2. RAG Context Pattern: Paste Types Per Page
+
+Each page expansion receives:
+- The outline section being expanded (from Phase 1 output)
+- The TypeScript type definitions for every API on that section's coverage list
+- The source code of relevant builder/theme/compose implementations
+
+This prevents the expander from guessing at API shapes. The types ARE the source of truth.
+
+### 3. Code Standards
+
+- All code uses `ds.styles()` (the system instance), never `animus.styles()` (legacy core import)
+- All TypeScript — no `any`, no untyped variables
+- Complete imports in copy-pasteable examples (not `// ...` ellipsis)
+- Token references use bare scale keys (`primary`, `fire.500`) not template syntax (`{colors.primary}`) for typed props
+- No hardcoded hex/rgba values — token refs + opacity syntax for everything
+
+### 4. Prose Standards
+
+- Direct and technical. Assume senior frontend developer reader.
+- Explain WHY the API is shaped this way (constraint-driven design)
+- Explain what the extractor does with this code at build time
+- Explain how the type system guides/constrains usage
+- Do NOT restate what code already shows
+- Do NOT explain what CSS properties do
+- Do NOT use filler transitions ("Let's dive in", "In this section we'll explore")
+
+### 5. MDX Component Usage
+
+- `<Callout variant="warning">` for extraction limitations, dev/prod behavior differences
+- `<Callout variant="info">` for design reasoning ("why" explanations)
+- `<Callout variant="tip">` for productivity shortcuts or non-obvious patterns
+- `<CodeExample>` for showing TSX input alongside extracted CSS output
+- `<BeforeAfter>` for runtime-vs-extracted comparisons
+- `<LivePreview>` only on pages with interactive component demos
+- `<ChainStep>` only on the builder chain page
+
+### 6. Per-Page Context Window Management
+
+Some pages cover many exports. If a single page's outline + types exceed comfortable context, split into two passes:
+- Pass A: First half of sections
+- Pass B: Second half, with Pass A output as additional context for cross-referencing
+
+Stitch passes into one file. Coverage check after stitching.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+### Phase 2 Output May Deviate from Outline
+**Risk**: The expander makes creative decisions that contradict Phase 1 structure.
+**Mitigation**: The expansion prompt explicitly constrains: "If you realize an API doesn't belong here, say so explicitly — don't silently drop it or relocate it."
+
+### Code Examples May Reference Non-Existent APIs
+**Risk**: LLM generates plausible-looking but fictional method calls.
+**Mitigation**: Phase 3 (docs-auditor) catches this. Phase 2's job is to write; Phase 3's job is to validate. Separation of concerns.
+
+### Token Values May Be Stale
+**Risk**: Code examples reference token names that exist in theme but have changed.
+**Mitigation**: RAG context includes the actual theme definition from `ds.ts`. Expander uses those exact token names.

+## Why
+
+Phase 1 (docs-cartographer) produces a documentation outline with coverage checklists and structural annotations. That outline is a contract — it defines what goes where, but contains no prose or code examples. Phase 2 (The Scribe) takes each page from the approved outline and expands it into full MDX content.
+
+This phase must be mechanical and disciplined: every API on a section's coverage list must appear in the output. The expansion follows type-signature-first ordering, uses the real MDX component palette, and pastes relevant TypeScript definitions as context for accurate code examples.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Per-page MDX content expansion from the Phase 1 outline
+- Each page written with: type signatures, minimal examples, realistic examples, edge cases
+- All code examples use real Animus APIs with complete, runnable TypeScript
+- MDX components from the verified palette used per the outline's annotations
+- Coverage checking: every API on a section's checklist must appear in the output
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `expansion-protocol`: The per-page expansion prompt — defines writing rules, code standards, prose constraints, and the RAG context pattern for pasting type definitions alongside each section's expansion.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/showcase/src/content/**/*.mdx` — 19 files rewritten with full content
+- Consumes: Phase 1 outline (docs-cartographer output)
+- Produces: Complete MDX documentation ready for Phase 3 validation
+- No code changes. No build impact. Documentation content only.

+# Expansion Protocol
+
+## Purpose
+
+This spec defines the repeatable prompt for expanding a single page (or section) from the Phase 1 documentation outline into full MDX content. Run this once per page, pasting the relevant outline section and type definitions as context.
+
+## The Prompt
+
+```
+You are writing documentation for Animus, a zero-runtime CSS-in-JS library.
+You are expanding a single page from an approved documentation outline.
+
+## Your Inputs
+
+1. The OUTLINE PAGE you are expanding (pasted below as "Outline Section")
+2. The SOURCE CODE for every API listed in the page's coverage checklist
+3. The TypeScript TYPE DEFINITIONS relevant to this page's APIs
+4. The THEME DEFINITION from packages/showcase/src/ds.ts (for token examples)
+
+## Global Rules
+
+Code standards:
+- All code uses ds.styles() (the system instance from createSystem().build()),
+  NEVER animus.styles() (legacy core import)
+- All TypeScript — no `any`, no untyped variables, no `as any` casts
+- Complete imports in copy-pasteable examples. No `// ...` ellipsis in
+  import-dependent code. Single method call snippets may truncate.
+- Token references use bare scale keys (primary, fire.500) not template
+  syntax ({colors.primary}) for typed props
+- No hardcoded hex/rgba values — use token refs + opacity syntax
+
+Prose standards:
+- Direct and technical. Reader is a senior frontend developer.
+- Explain WHY the API is shaped this way (constraint-driven design matters)
+- Explain what the extractor does with this code at build time
+- Explain how the type system guides or constrains usage
+- DO NOT restate what code already shows
+- DO NOT explain what CSS properties do
+- DO NOT use filler: "Let's dive in", "In this section we'll explore",
+  "Now that we've covered X", etc.
+- DO explain what happens when you break the rules (error messages,
+  fallback behavior, extraction failures)
+
+## Per-API Expansion Pattern
+
+For each API method or feature in a section's coverage list:
+
+1. <TypeSignature> — show the function/method signature first
+2. Minimal example — smallest meaningful usage (3-8 lines of code)
+3. Realistic example — how it appears in a real component (10-25 lines)
+4. Edge cases or gotchas — via <Callout variant="warning"> if any were
+   noted in the outline
+
+Not every API needs all four steps. Simple utility types need only the
+signature and a one-line description. Complex builder methods need the
+full treatment.
+
+## MDX Component Usage
+
+Use ONLY these components. All are real, production-ready, and imported
+from the paths shown.
+
+Content display:
+  import { SyntaxBlock } from '../../components/surfaces/SyntaxBlock'
+  import { CodeExample } from '../../components/docs/CodeExample'
+  import { BeforeAfter } from '../../components/docs/BeforeAfter'
+  import { LivePreview } from '../../components/docs/LivePreview'
+
+API documentation:
+  import { TypeSignature } from '../../components/docs/TypeSignature'
+  import { MethodCard } from '../../components/docs/MethodCard'
+  import { ParamTable } from '../../components/docs/ParamTable'
+  import { TokenBadge } from '../../components/docs/TokenBadge'
+  import { APIBlock } from '../../components/docs/APIBlock'
+
+Annotation:
+  import { Callout } from '../../components/docs/Callout'
+  import { MetricCard, MetricGrid } from '../../components/docs/MetricCard'
+
+Interactive:
+  import { ChainStep } from '../../components/docs/ChainStep'
+  import { TabGroup } from '../../components/docs/TabGroup'
+  import { Button } from '../../components/docs/Button'
+
+Component usage rules:
+  <Callout variant="warning"> — extraction limitations, dev vs prod differences
+  <Callout variant="info"> — design reasoning, "why" explanations
+  <Callout variant="tip"> — productivity shortcuts, non-obvious patterns
+  <Callout variant="danger"> — breaking changes, things that will silently fail
+  <CodeExample> — for showing TSX input alongside extracted CSS output
+  <BeforeAfter> — for runtime-vs-extracted comparisons
+  <LivePreview> — only on pages with interactive component demonstrations
+  <ChainStep> — only on the builder chain page
+
+## Coverage Contract
+
+Every API on the outline section's coverage checklist MUST appear in your
+output. If you realize an API doesn't belong on this page, say so explicitly
+in a comment at the bottom:
+
+  {/* COVERAGE NOTE: system#ds.system() moved to System Props page — see cross-ref */}
+
+Do NOT silently drop APIs. Do NOT relocate them without flagging.
+
+## Context Window Management
+
+If the outline section + type definitions exceed comfortable context, split
+into two passes:
+  Pass A: First half of sections (write to file)
+  Pass B: Second half, with Pass A as additional context
+Stitch into one file. Run coverage check after stitching.
+
+## Outline Section
+
+<PASTE THE RELEVANT PAGE FROM THE PHASE 1 OUTLINE HERE>
+
+## Type Definitions
+
+<PASTE THE TYPESCRIPT TYPES FOR APIs ON THIS PAGE'S COVERAGE LIST>
+
+## Theme Definition
+
+<PASTE packages/showcase/src/ds.ts OR RELEVANT EXCERPTS>
+```
+
+## Output
+
+Valid MDX file. Imports at the top. Sections matching the outline's heading structure. Coverage checklist items all accounted for.
+
+## Success Criteria
+
+- Every API on the page's coverage checklist is mentioned and demonstrated
+- All code examples are strictly typed TypeScript using real Animus APIs
+- MDX components match the outline's annotations for each section
+- No fictional methods, types, props, or config options
+- Prose is direct, technical, and explains "why" not just "what"
+- All imports use correct paths from the real component palette

+## Context
+
+The extraction pipeline generates CSS in Rust but cannot execute JavaScript transform functions. The current solution emits `__TRANSFORM__name__value__` placeholders (theme_resolver.rs:512) that are resolved post-hoc by a Node.js subprocess. The subprocess-elimination work replaced a full Node.js import with a lightweight CJS bin file, but the IPC boundary remains: Rust serializes CSS → plugin writes bin file → execSync spawns Node → Node resolves placeholders → plugin reads result.
+
+Transform callbacks are self-contained JavaScript functions with no external references. They are already extracted as source strings by `transform_extractor.rs` and validated by `validate_self_contained`. The callbacks use standard JS features: typeof, ternary, template literals, regex, for loops, string methods, parseFloat. All of these are supported by `boa_engine` (0.21.1), a pure-Rust JavaScript engine with >90% ECMAScript Test262 compliance.
+
+The oxc crates are at 0.121.0. `oxc_codegen` does NOT strip TypeScript — it faithfully round-trips TS syntax. Proper TS→JS conversion requires `oxc_transformer`, which mutates the AST in-place to remove type annotations. The pipeline is: Parse → Semantic → Transform → Codegen.
+
+Phase 1 of the project analyzer parses each file twice: once via `walk_chains` (line 326, own allocator) and once via `Parser::new` for module info + transform extraction (line 331, separate allocator). These operate on the same source and can share a single parse.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Evaluate transform callbacks in-process via boa_engine — CSS values fully resolved in Rust
+- Eliminate the `__TRANSFORM__` placeholder protocol, bin file subprocess, SPLIT_MARKER, and stripTs regex
+- Proper TS→JS stripping via oxc_transformer + oxc_codegen for extracted transform sources
+- Bump oxc crates to 0.124.0 for currency
+- Consolidate Phase 1 redundant parses into a single parse per file
+- Maintain the self-contained constraint on transform callbacks
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Evaluating the system serialization subprocess (subprocess 1) — that remains for now
+- Relaxing the self-contained constraint to allow imports in transforms (shadow entrypoint architecture)
+- Adopting oxc_traverse for chain walking or JSX scanning (working code, not a pain point)
+- Adopting oxc_resolver for package resolution (pre-computed by plugin, not needed in Rust)
+- Source map generation via oxc_codegen (not needed for transform sources)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Use boa_engine, not rquickjs
+
+**Choice:** Embed `boa_engine` (pure Rust JS engine) for transform evaluation.
+
+**Rationale:** boa is pure Rust — no C compilation, no FFI, no unsafe code beyond what boa manages internally. For self-contained functions evaluated once per transform per build, boa's eval performance (~microseconds) is more than sufficient. The alternative, rquickjs (QuickJS C bindings), is faster but introduces C compilation into the dependency chain.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Pure Rust AST evaluator (~500-800 lines covering typeof, regex, for loops, array destructuring, template literals, parseFloat). Rejected — "whack-a-mole" maintenance risk as user-authored transforms evolve. boa handles 100% of ES2024+ for free.
+
+**Alternative considered:** rquickjs. Rejected — C compilation dependency is unnecessary given boa's sufficient performance for our use case.
+
+### 2. Single boa Context per analyze_project call, not per-transform
+
+**Choice:** Create one `boa_engine::Context` at the start of `analyze_project`, register all extracted transform functions into it, then call them during CSS generation.
+
+**Rationale:** Context creation has overhead (~1-2ms). Creating one and reusing it across all transform evaluations amortizes this. The transforms are registered as named functions in the context's global scope. During `resolve_value` in theme_resolver, a transform call is a function invocation in an already-warm context.
+
+### 3. oxc_transformer + oxc_codegen for TS stripping, not regex
+
+**Choice:** Parse → SemanticBuilder → Transformer (strip TS) → Codegen (print_expression) → pure JS source string.
+
+**Rationale:** `oxc_codegen` alone does NOT strip TypeScript — it faithfully emits TS syntax including type annotations, `as` casts, and return types. The `oxc_transformer` with TypeScript options mutates the AST in-place to remove all TS-specific nodes. Codegen then emits the cleaned AST as pure JS. This replaces the regex `stripTs()` hack which has known blind spots for complex generics and intersection types.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Custom narrow emitter (~60-80 lines) that manually skips TS nodes during emission. Rejected — more code to maintain than using oxc's own transformer, and risks missing edge cases in TS syntax.
+
+### 4. Transform evaluation happens in theme_resolver, replacing placeholder emission
+
+**Choice:** At theme_resolver.rs:512, instead of `format!("__TRANSFORM__{}__{}__", ...)`, call the boa context with the transform name and input value, return the resolved CSS directly.
+
+**Rationale:** This is the most surgical integration point. The resolve_value function already has the transform name and the input value. The boa context is passed down via ResolveContext. No other function signatures in the pipeline need to change beyond adding the context reference.
+
+### 5. Consolidate Phase 1 parses by extracting parse from walk_chains
+
+**Choice:** Parse the file once in project_analyzer's Phase 1 loop, pass `&Program` to both `walk_chains_from_program` (new function) and `parse_module_info` + `extract_transforms`.
+
+**Rationale:** Currently `walk_chains` (line 326) creates its own parse internally, then a second parse (line 331) is created for module info. Both operate on the same source text. Restructuring `walk_chains` to accept `&Program` eliminates one parse per file (~2-5ms per file, ~100-250ms for 50 files).
+
+### 6. Remove extracted_transforms from the manifest
+
+**Choice:** Transforms are consumed internally by Rust during CSS generation. The manifest JSON no longer ships `extracted_transforms` to plugins.
+
+**Rationale:** Plugins no longer need transform sources — there's nothing to resolve post-Rust. The bin file, SPLIT_MARKER, and transform entries in the manifest all become dead code.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] boa_engine binary size increase (~4-5MB)** → The NAPI binary is already substantial. 4-5MB additional is acceptable for eliminating a subprocess. Monitor after integration and strip debug symbols (already configured in Cargo.toml release profile).
+
+**[Risk] boa_engine compile time increase** → boa is a substantial crate. First compile will be slower. Incremental rebuilds unaffected since boa source doesn't change. Mitigation: boa is a leaf dependency — changes to extraction code don't trigger boa recompilation.
+
+**[Risk] boa eval produces different results than Node.js for edge cases** → >90% Test262 compliance means some exotic JS edge cases may differ. Mitigation: transform callbacks use standard features (typeof, ternary, regex, template literals, loops, string methods) that are well-covered. Canary tests verify round-trip correctness.
+
+**[Risk] oxc 0.121→0.124 behavioral changes** → No documented breaking API changes. Mitigation: `cargo build` catches compile-time breaks; canary + Rust tests catch behavioral changes.
+
+**[Risk] Transform evaluation errors surface differently** → Currently, a broken transform causes a Node.js subprocess crash (opaque). With boa, evaluation errors can be caught and surfaced as structured diagnostics in the extraction result. This is an improvement, not a regression.

+## Why
+
+The subprocess-elimination work removed 2 of 3 build subprocesses but introduced a bin file post-processor: Rust emits `__TRANSFORM__size__0.5__` placeholders in CSS, the plugin writes a zero-dep CJS file with extracted transform sources, and `execSync('node runner.js')` resolves placeholders via regex. This works but leaves ~15-30ms of subprocess overhead per buildStart/HMR reset, requires a `stripTs()` regex hack to remove TypeScript annotations from extracted source spans, and introduces the SPLIT_MARKER protocol to handle global + component CSS through a single bin file pass.
+
+The root cause: transform callbacks are JavaScript functions that must be *executed* to produce CSS values, but the extraction pipeline runs in Rust. The bin file bridges this gap via IPC. An embedded JavaScript engine (boa_engine) eliminates this bridge entirely — transforms evaluate in-process during CSS generation.
+
+Additionally, the oxc crates are pinned at 0.121.0 while 0.124.0 is available. The `oxc_transformer` crate provides proper AST-based TypeScript stripping (which `oxc_codegen` alone does NOT do — codegen faithfully round-trips TypeScript syntax). And Phase 1 of the project analyzer parses each file twice redundantly (once for chain walking, once for module info + transform extraction).
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Add `boa_engine` dependency to the extraction crate for in-process JavaScript evaluation
+- Add `oxc_transformer`, `oxc_codegen`, and `oxc_semantic` dependencies for proper TS→JS pipeline
+- Bump all existing oxc crates from 0.121.0 to 0.124.0 (`oxc_parser`, `oxc_ast`, `oxc_span`, `oxc_allocator`, `oxc_syntax`)
+- Eliminate the `__TRANSFORM__` placeholder protocol in `theme_resolver.rs` — instead of emitting `__TRANSFORM__name__value__`, evaluate the transform function via boa and emit the resolved CSS value directly
+- Remove bin file generation and `execSync` subprocess from `vite-plugin/src/index.ts`
+- Remove bin file generation and `execSync` subprocess from `next-plugin/src/plugin.ts`
+- Remove `stripTs()` regex from both plugins
+- Remove the `SPLIT_MARKER` protocol from both plugins
+- Remove `extracted_transforms` from the manifest JSON (transforms are consumed internally by Rust, not shipped to plugins)
+- Consolidate Phase 1 parses in `project_analyzer.rs`: chain walking + module info + transform extraction from a single `Parser::new` call
+- Modify `transform_extractor.rs` to emit pure JavaScript via oxc_transformer + oxc_codegen instead of raw TypeScript source spans
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `embedded-js-eval`: In-process JavaScript evaluation of self-contained transform callbacks via boa_engine, replacing IPC-based transform resolution
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `named-transforms`: Transform source extraction emits pure JS (via oxc_transformer + oxc_codegen) and transforms are evaluated in Rust rather than shipped to plugins. The `extracted_transforms` manifest field is removed.
+- `css-post-processing`: The `__TRANSFORM__` placeholder protocol and bin file post-processing step are eliminated. CSS emerges from Rust fully resolved.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Rust crate** (`packages/extract`): New dependencies (boa_engine, oxc_transformer, oxc_codegen, oxc_semantic). Changes to theme_resolver.rs (inline eval instead of placeholder emission), transform_extractor.rs (TS→JS pipeline), project_analyzer.rs (boa context management, parse consolidation, removal of extracted_transforms from manifest).
+- **Vite plugin** (`packages/vite-plugin`): Remove bin file generation, execSync, stripTs, SPLIT_MARKER. Simplify `runAnalysis` — CSS from Rust is final, no post-processing needed.
+- **Next plugin** (`packages/next-plugin`): Same removals as vite-plugin.
+- **Build**: Cargo.lock regenerates with new dependency tree. NAPI binary size increases (~4-5MB from boa_engine). Binary must be rebuilt.
+- **Performance**: Eliminates ~15-30ms subprocess overhead per buildStart and HMR geological reset. Transform evaluation in boa is microseconds vs milliseconds for subprocess spawn.
+- **No consumer-facing API changes**: `createTransform` API, self-contained constraint, and component authoring are all unchanged.

+**Reason:** The `resolveTransformPlaceholders` function and `__TRANSFORM__{name}__{value}__` protocol are eliminated.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Boa engine context lifecycle
+The `analyze_project` function SHALL create a single `boa_engine::Context` at the start of analysis. All extracted transform functions SHALL be registered into this context as named callable functions before CSS generation begins. The context SHALL be passed to the theme resolver via `ResolveContext` and live for the duration of the analysis call.
+
+#### Scenario: Context created once per analysis
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project` is called with files containing transform definitions
+- **THEN** exactly one boa Context SHALL be created, and all transforms from all files SHALL be registered in it
+
+#### Scenario: Context reused across files
+- **WHEN** the theme resolver processes CSS values from multiple files in a single analysis run
+- **THEN** all transform evaluations SHALL use the same boa Context instance
+
+### Requirement: Transform function registration
+Each extracted transform SHALL be registered in the boa context by evaluating its pure JavaScript source string and binding it to the transform's name. Registration SHALL occur after TS→JS stripping (via oxc_transformer + oxc_codegen) and validation.
+
+#### Scenario: Built-in transform registered
+- **WHEN** the `size` transform is extracted with source `(value) => { const toSize = ... ; ... }`
+- **THEN** the boa context SHALL have a callable function bound to the name `"size"` that produces the same output as the original TypeScript function
+
+#### Scenario: Invalid transform not registered
+- **WHEN** a transform fails `validate_self_contained` (references external symbols)
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT be registered in the boa context and a diagnostic SHALL be emitted
+
+#### Scenario: Custom user transform registered
+- **WHEN** a user defines `createTransform('fluid', (v) => ...)` in their project files
+- **THEN** the `"fluid"` function SHALL be registered in the boa context alongside built-in transforms
+
+### Requirement: In-process transform evaluation
+When the theme resolver encounters a CSS value that requires a named transform, it SHALL call the transform function in the boa context with the input value and return the result as a CSS string. No `__TRANSFORM__` placeholder SHALL be emitted.
+
+#### Scenario: Numeric value evaluated
+- **WHEN** `resolve_value` processes property `width` with value `0.5` and transform `"size"`
+- **THEN** the boa context SHALL evaluate `size(0.5)` and return `"50%"` as the CSS value
+
+#### Scenario: String value evaluated
+- **WHEN** `resolve_value` processes property `width` with value `"100vh"` and transform `"size"`
+- **THEN** the boa context SHALL evaluate `size("100vh")` and return `"100vh"` as the CSS value
+
+#### Scenario: Numeric coercion for integer-like strings
+- **WHEN** the input value is a JSON number (e.g., `4` from scale lookup)
+- **THEN** the value SHALL be passed to the transform function as a JavaScript number, not a string
+
+#### Scenario: Transform evaluation error falls back to raw value
+- **WHEN** a transform function throws or returns undefined
+- **THEN** the raw input value SHALL be used as the CSS value and a diagnostic warning SHALL be emitted
+
+### Requirement: TS→JS stripping via oxc pipeline
+Extracted transform source spans SHALL be converted from TypeScript to pure JavaScript using the oxc_transformer + oxc_codegen pipeline before registration in the boa context.
+
+#### Scenario: Type annotations stripped
+- **WHEN** a transform callback is `(value: number): string => String(value) + 'px'`
+- **THEN** the registered source SHALL be pure JavaScript with type annotations removed
+
+#### Scenario: `as` casts stripped
+- **WHEN** a transform callback contains `value as string`
+- **THEN** the registered source SHALL contain `value` without the cast
+
+#### Scenario: `satisfies` expressions stripped
+- **WHEN** a transform callback contains `result satisfies string`
+- **THEN** the registered source SHALL contain `result` without the satisfies clause
+
+#### Scenario: Plain JavaScript passes through unchanged
+- **WHEN** a transform callback contains no TypeScript syntax
+- **THEN** the registered source SHALL be semantically equivalent JavaScript

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Rust extraction captures inline transform functions in custom prop configs
+When the Rust `style_evaluator` encounters an inline function expression (`ArrowFunctionExpression` or `FunctionExpression`) as the value of a `transform` field in a `.props()` config object, it SHALL capture the function's source text via the oxc_transformer + oxc_codegen pipeline as pure JavaScript. This applies ONLY to the `transform` field — all other fields SHALL continue to bail on function expressions.
+
+#### Scenario: Inline arrow function captured as JS
+- **WHEN** a `.props()` config contains `transform: (v: number) => \`${v}px\``
+- **THEN** the style evaluator SHALL capture and emit the source as pure JavaScript `(v) => \`${v}px\`` (TypeScript annotations removed), associating it with the `transform` property, without bailing
+
+#### Scenario: Inline function expression captured as JS
+- **WHEN** a `.props()` config contains `transform: function(v: string) { return v + 'px'; }`
+- **THEN** the style evaluator SHALL capture and emit the source as `function(v) { return v + 'px'; }` (TypeScript annotations removed)
+
+#### Scenario: Identifier reference still bails
+- **WHEN** a `.props()` config contains `transform: myTransform` where `myTransform` is an identifier reference
+- **THEN** the style evaluator SHALL bail on that property with "variable reference (non-static)" — identifier resolution is not supported for custom prop transforms
+
+#### Scenario: Function expression on non-transform fields still bails
+- **WHEN** a `.props()` config contains `scale: (v) => v * 2` (function on a non-transform field)
+- **THEN** the style evaluator SHALL bail on that property as before — function capture applies only to `transform` fields
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Transform placeholder resolution
+**Reason:** The `__TRANSFORM__` placeholder protocol is eliminated. Transform callbacks are evaluated in-process via boa_engine during CSS generation. CSS emerges from Rust fully resolved — no placeholders exist to resolve.
+**Migration:** No consumer action needed. The `resolveTransformPlaceholders` function and `__TRANSFORM__` regex pattern are internal implementation details. CSS output is identical; only the resolution mechanism changes.

+## Context
+
+The Rust extraction crate (`packages/extract/src/`) contains three forms of structural duplication:
+
+1. **chain_walker.rs** has two functions (`first_arg_span` at line 334, `second_arg_span_fn` at line 315) with byte-for-byte identical 12-arm match statements extracting `.span` from `Argument::*` variants.
+
+2. **Test modules** across jsx_scanner.rs and theme_resolver.rs construct FxHashMap/FxHashSet test data via multi-line `::default()` + `.insert()` chains — verbose and hard to scan.
+
+3. **jsx_scanner.rs** (2506 lines) contains two parallel sets of manual AST walkers:
+   - Set 1: `collect_from_statement` / `collect_from_expression` / `collect_from_jsx_child` / `collect_from_jsx_expression` (~310 lines, lines 76–449)
+   - Set 2: `collect_usage_from_statement` / `collect_usage_from_expression` / `collect_usage_from_jsx_child` / `collect_usage_from_jsx_expression` (~380 lines, lines 680–1058)
+   
+   Both sets walk the same AST node types (Statement, Expression, JSXChild, JSXExpression) with the same match arms. They differ only in: (a) the context they carry, (b) what they do when they reach a JSXOpeningElement, and (c) Set 2 adds an ObjectExpression arm in expression walking.
+
+   `oxc_ast_visit` v0.124.0 is already in the dependency tree (transitive via `oxc_transformer`). Its `Visit` trait provides automatic recursive descent with override points at every AST node type.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Eliminate the duplicated span-extraction match blocks via declarative macro
+- Provide concise test data construction via `map!{}`/`set!{}` macros
+- Replace ~690 lines of manual AST walking in jsx_scanner.rs with trait-driven visitor pattern
+- Maintain byte-for-byte identical extraction output (pure refactor)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Migrating chain_walker.rs to Visit (backward-walking model, incompatible with forward traversal)
+- Migrating compose walker to Visit (different structure: top-level declaration scan only, no JSX recursion)
+- Adding new extraction capabilities or changing scanner behavior
+- Changing public API surface (`scan_jsx`, `scan_jsx_usage`, `scan_compose_families` signatures unchanged)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: `get_arg_span!` as declarative macro, not a function
+
+The 12 `Argument::*` variants each have a `.span` field but share no common trait exposing it. A function would need to take `&Argument` and return `Span` — same match block, just moved. A `macro_rules!` macro inlines the match at each call site, producing zero-overhead identical code while maintaining a single source of truth.
+
+Alternative considered: Implement a `HasSpan` trait for `Argument` variants — rejected because these are oxc types we don't own, and blanket trait impls on foreign types is forbidden by Rust's orphan rules.
+
+### Decision 2: Two visitor structs, not one mode-switched struct
+
+The two scanner passes carry different state:
+
+| | SystemPropScanner (scan_jsx) | UsageScanner (scan_jsx_usage) |
+|---|---|---|
+| Shared state | `component_props`, `member_expr_bindings`, `seen` | `component_props`, `member_expr_bindings`, `seen` |
+| Unique state | `dynamic_seen`, `results`, `dynamic_results` | `component_configs`, `result: UsageScanResult` |
+| JSX logic | Evaluate attribute → Static/Dynamic/Skip | Evaluate attribute + check variant/state configs |
+| Extra walking | — | `visit_object_expression` (component maps) |
+
+A single struct with `enum ScanMode { SystemProps, Usage }` would need runtime branching in the hot path and hold unused fields. Two small structs are clearer: each declares exactly the state it needs, implements exactly the visit methods it uses.
+
+Alternative considered: Generic visitor with trait-based strategy pattern — rejected as over-engineering for two concrete use cases.
+
+### Decision 3: `map!{}`/`set!{}` using FxHashMap/FxHashSet
+
+Session 63 swapped all internal HashMaps to FxHashMap. Test macros must produce FxHashMap/FxHashSet, not std types. The macros use `FxHashMap::default()` + `.insert()` internally (not `::from()` which doesn't exist for FxHashMap).
+
+Alternative considered: Keeping test macros as std HashMap and converting — rejected because test code should use the same types as production code to catch type mismatches at compile time.
+
+### Decision 4: Compose walker left as-is
+
+`collect_compose_from_statement` (line 1492) and `collect_compose_from_expression` (line 1532) are NOT duplicated — they're a single pair that scans only top-level variable declarations for `compose()` / `composeWithContext()` calls. No JSX recursion, no parallel copy. No benefit from Visit migration.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk] Visitor override misses nested JSX in edge cases** → Mitigated by 192 canary tests + 20+ jsx_scanner unit tests. The Visit trait's default implementations walk ALL children; we only need to override leaf handlers (visit_jsx_opening_element). If anything, the visitor will walk MORE thoroughly than our manual code.
+
+- **[Risk] `oxc_ast_visit` Visit trait signature incompatible with mutable state accumulation** → Mitigated by verification: the trait uses `&mut self`, which is exactly what we need for accumulating results into vectors and sets on the struct.
+
+- **[Trade-off] Macro debugging vs code clarity**: `get_arg_span!` is simple enough (single match expression) that macro expansion errors would be immediately obvious. The `map!{}`/`set!{}` macros are test-only, so debuggability impact is minimal.
+
+- **[Trade-off] oxc_ast_visit as direct dependency**: Adds a crate to Cargo.toml but it's already compiled (transitive dependency). No new compilation cost.

+## Why
+
+The Rust extraction crate has accumulated structural duplication across three areas: identical 12-arm match blocks in chain_walker.rs, verbose HashMap/HashSet construction in test modules, and ~550 lines of hand-rolled AST recursive descent in jsx_scanner.rs that duplicates what oxc_ast_visit provides as a trait. Cleaning these up reduces maintenance surface, makes the scanner logic easier to audit, and aligns with idiomatic oxc usage for forward-looking AST traversal.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **`get_arg_span!` macro** in chain_walker.rs: Collapses two identical `Argument::*` → `.span` match blocks (lines 315–350) into a single declarative macro. `first_arg_span` and `second_arg_span_fn` become one-line macro invocations.
+- **`map!{}`/`set!{}` test macros**: FxHashMap/FxHashSet construction macros scoped to `#[cfg(test)]` modules. Replaces multi-line `::default()` + `.insert()` chains with declarative literals in jsx_scanner.rs and theme_resolver.rs tests.
+- **Visit trait migration** in jsx_scanner.rs: Replaces manual `collect_from_statement`/`collect_from_expression`/`collect_from_jsx_child`/`collect_from_jsx_expression` and their `collect_usage_from_*` counterparts with two visitor structs implementing `oxc_ast_visit::Visit`. Each struct overrides only the JSX-relevant visit methods; the trait handles all recursive descent automatically. Compose walker (`collect_compose_from_statement`) is left unchanged — it has a different structure (top-level-only scan, no JSX recursion).
+- **`oxc_ast_visit = "0.124.0"`** added as a direct dependency (already present as transitive via oxc_transformer).
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `oxc-visitor-scanning`: Behavioral invariant spec for the Visit trait migration — extraction output must remain identical, visitor structs must carry equivalent state to current function parameter lists.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+_None. All changes are internal refactoring with no spec-level behavior modifications._
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Code**: `chain_walker.rs` (macro addition, ~30 lines saved), `jsx_scanner.rs` (major restructure, ~500 lines reduced), test modules in `jsx_scanner.rs` and `theme_resolver.rs` (macro adoption)
+- **Dependencies**: `oxc_ast_visit = "0.124.0"` added to Cargo.toml (already in dependency tree as transitive)
+- **Risk**: The Visit migration is the highest-risk item — incorrect visitor override could miss JSX elements in nested contexts. Mitigated by existing 192 canary tests + jsx_scanner unit tests which verify exact extraction output.
+- **Non-goals**: No chain_walker.rs Visit migration (backward-walking model is incompatible with forward Visit traversal). No functional changes to extraction output.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Visitor-based JSX scanning preserves extraction equivalence
+The Visit trait migration SHALL produce byte-for-byte identical extraction output compared to the manual walker implementation for all scanned files.
+
+#### Scenario: System prop scanning equivalence
+- **WHEN** `scan_jsx()` is called with any program AST containing JSX elements with system props
+- **THEN** the returned `CustomPropScanResult` (both `static_usages` and `dynamic_usages`) SHALL be identical to the result produced by the pre-migration manual walker
+
+#### Scenario: Usage scanning equivalence
+- **WHEN** `scan_jsx_usage()` is called with any program AST containing JSX elements with variant, state, and system props
+- **THEN** the returned `UsageScanResult` SHALL be identical to the result produced by the pre-migration manual walker
+
+#### Scenario: Nested JSX in control flow
+- **WHEN** JSX elements appear inside conditional expressions, logical expressions, arrow functions, function expressions, or call expression arguments
+- **THEN** the visitor SHALL reach and process those JSX elements identically to the manual walker
+
+#### Scenario: JSX in object expression values (usage scanner only)
+- **WHEN** JSX elements appear inside object expression property values (e.g., component map patterns like `{ h1: (props) => <Heading {...props} /> }`)
+- **THEN** the UsageScanner SHALL walk into those values and discover JSX usages, matching the manual walker's ObjectExpression arm
+
+### Requirement: Visitor structs carry equivalent scanner state
+Each visitor struct SHALL hold all state previously passed as function parameters to the manual walker functions.
+
+#### Scenario: SystemPropScanner state
+- **WHEN** `SystemPropScanner` is constructed for a `scan_jsx()` call
+- **THEN** it SHALL hold references to `component_props`, `member_expr_bindings`, and own mutable `seen`, `dynamic_seen`, `results`, and `dynamic_results` fields
+
+#### Scenario: UsageScanner state
+- **WHEN** `UsageScanner` is constructed for a `scan_jsx_usage()` call
+- **THEN** it SHALL hold references to `component_props`, `component_configs`, `member_expr_bindings`, and own mutable `seen` and `result` fields
+
+### Requirement: Compose walker independence
+The compose family scanner SHALL NOT be migrated to the Visit trait.
+
+#### Scenario: Compose walker unchanged
+- **WHEN** `scan_compose_families()` is called
+- **THEN** it SHALL use the existing `collect_compose_from_statement` / `collect_compose_from_expression` implementation, not a visitor struct
+
+### Requirement: Span extraction macro
+`chain_walker.rs` SHALL define a `get_arg_span!` macro that extracts the `.span` from any `Argument` variant.
+
+#### Scenario: First argument span extraction

+## Context
+
+The Rust extraction crate converts DS style objects (e.g., `{ px: 3, py: 2, pl: 8 }`) from AST into `serde_json::Value`, then iterates object keys in `resolve_styles()` to produce `Vec<CssDeclaration>`. Default `serde_json` uses `BTreeMap` for JSON objects — alphabetical key ordering. This destroys the cascade relationship between shorthand and longhand DS props.
+
+The legacy Emotion runtime solved this in `packages/core/src/properties/orderPropNames.ts` with a comparator that sorts props by their CSS property's shorthand status: true shorthands first, multi-target shorthands second, direct longhands last. The Rust crate has `SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES` and `css_property_cascade_key()` in `css_generator.rs` but only applies them to utility CSS (system/custom layers). Component base/variant/state styles receive no ordering treatment.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Multi-property shorthand props (`px`, `py`, `mx`, `my`) always emit CSS declarations before their directional longhand counterparts (`pl`, `pr`, `pt`, `pb`, etc.)
+- Ordering applies uniformly across all emission paths: base styles, variant styles, state styles, pseudo-selector blocks, and responsive blocks
+- Source insertion order preserved as tiebreaker within the same cascade tier
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Deduplication of overlapping declarations (both `padding-left` values still emit — cascade handles precedence)
+- Changes to utility CSS ordering (already correct via `css_property_cascade_key`)
+- Changes to PropConfig structure or the DS property definitions
+- Consumer-side Vite/build configuration changes
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Enable `serde_json` `preserve_order` feature
+
+**Choice**: Add `features = ["preserve_order"]` to serde_json in Cargo.toml.
+
+**Why**: Switches `serde_json::Map` from `BTreeMap` to `IndexMap`. The style evaluator builds Value objects from OXC AST which preserves source order — `IndexMap` carries that through. This provides correct tiebreaking within cascade tiers and makes CSS output predictable relative to source.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Leave `BTreeMap` and rely solely on cascade-tier sorting. Rejected because within the same tier, source order is the only meaningful tiebreaker — alphabetical is arbitrary and surprising.
+
+### 2. Cascade-tier sorting in `theme_resolver.rs`, not `css_generator.rs`
+
+**Choice**: Add `prop_cascade_tier()` function and sorting logic in `theme_resolver.rs` where `resolve_styles()` and `resolve_flat_styles()` live.
+
+**Why**: The ordering must happen before declarations are built from props. By the time declarations reach `css_generator.rs`, the prop-level context (which config entry generated which declarations) is lost — you only have `CssDeclaration { property, value }`. The prop config lookup that determines shorthand status must happen while we still have prop names and access to `PropConfigMap`.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Tag each `CssDeclaration` with a cascade-tier field and sort in css_generator. Rejected — adds a field to every declaration for a concern that belongs at resolution time, not emission time.
+
+### 3. Three-tier ordering model mirroring `orderPropNames.ts`
+
+**Tier 0**: Prop's `property` field is in `CSS_SHORTHANDS` AND `properties` is empty → true CSS shorthand (e.g., `p` → `padding`)
+**Tier 1**: Prop's `property` field is in `CSS_SHORTHANDS` AND `properties` is non-empty → multi-target shorthand (e.g., `px` → `paddingLeft` + `paddingRight`). Within tier 1, more properties = less specific = sorts earlier.
+**Tier 2**: Prop's `property` field is NOT in `CSS_SHORTHANDS` → direct longhand (e.g., `pl` → `paddingLeft`)
+**Tier 3**: No config entry → pass-through CSS property, sorts last
+
+Within each tier, `IndexMap` insertion order (= source order) is preserved via stable sort.
+
+### 4. Separate `CSS_SHORTHANDS` list in `theme_resolver.rs`
+
+**Choice**: Define a `CSS_SHORTHANDS` constant in `theme_resolver.rs` rather than importing from `css_generator.rs`.
+
+**Why**: `css_generator.rs` imports from `theme_resolver.rs` (types, `resolve_styles`). Importing back would create a circular dependency. The lists serve different purposes — `css_generator`'s list orders CSS properties for utility emission, `theme_resolver`'s list orders DS prop names during resolution.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **Snapshot churn**: Canary test inline snapshots may shift declaration order where shorthand props existed alongside longhands. Manageable — update snapshots after verification.
+- **IndexMap performance**: `IndexMap` is marginally slower than `BTreeMap` for lookups. Negligible at the scale of style objects (typically <20 keys per object).
+- **Dual shorthand lists**: Two copies of the CSS shorthands list (`css_generator.rs` and `theme_resolver.rs`). Acceptable — they serve different purposes and the list is stable CSS spec.

+## Why
+
+Multi-property shorthand DS props (`px`, `py`, `mx`, `my`) don't respect CSS cascade ordering against their directional longhand counterparts (`pl`, `pr`, `pt`, `pb`, `ml`, `mr`, `mt`, `mb`). Writing `px: 3, pl: 8` should produce CSS where `pl`'s `padding-left` overrides `px`'s, but the Rust crate emits them in `serde_json` `BTreeMap` alphabetical order — `pl` before `px` — so `px` wins instead. The legacy Emotion runtime solved this with `orderPropNames.ts`; the extraction pipeline has no equivalent.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Enable `serde_json` `preserve_order` feature so JSON object iteration uses `IndexMap` (insertion-ordered) instead of `BTreeMap` (alphabetical)
+- Add cascade-tier sorting in `theme_resolver.rs` that mirrors the legacy `orderPropNames.ts` logic: true CSS shorthands → multi-target shorthands → direct longhands
+- Apply this sorting in `resolve_styles()` and `resolve_flat_styles()` before iterating object keys, so all emitted CSS respects shorthand-before-longhand ordering regardless of source order
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `prop-cascade-ordering`: Cascade-tier sorting for DS props during style resolution — ensures multi-property shorthand props emit before their directional longhand overrides in all CSS emission paths (base, variants, states, pseudo-selectors)
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/extract/Cargo.toml` — new serde_json feature flag
+- `packages/extract/src/theme_resolver.rs` — cascade-tier sort function + sorting in resolve_styles/resolve_flat_styles
+- All existing canary/integration test CSS snapshots may shift declaration order (shorthands move earlier) — snapshot updates expected
+- No API changes, no breaking changes, no consumer-side fixes needed

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Shorthand props emit before longhand props
+The style resolver SHALL sort DS props by cascade tier before generating CSS declarations. Props whose `property` field matches a CSS shorthand (e.g., `padding`, `margin`, `border`) SHALL emit before props targeting individual longhands (e.g., `paddingLeft`, `marginRight`).
+
+#### Scenario: px before pl in base styles
+- **WHEN** a component's base styles contain `{ px: 3, pl: 8 }`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS SHALL contain `padding-left` from `px` before `padding-left` from `pl`, so `pl`'s value wins by cascade
+
+#### Scenario: p before px before pl
+- **WHEN** a component's base styles contain `{ pl: 8, px: 3, p: 2 }` in any source order
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS SHALL order declarations as: `p`'s `padding` first, then `px`'s `padding-left` + `padding-right`, then `pl`'s `padding-left` — most general to most specific
+
+#### Scenario: margin shorthands follow same ordering
+- **WHEN** a component's base styles contain `{ ml: 4, mx: 2 }`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS SHALL contain `mx`'s `margin-left` before `ml`'s `margin-left`
+
+### Requirement: Cascade ordering applies to all style contexts
+The cascade-tier sorting SHALL apply uniformly across all style resolution contexts, not only base styles.
+
+#### Scenario: Ordering in pseudo-selector blocks
+- **WHEN** a pseudo-selector block (e.g., `_hover`) contains `{ px: 3, pl: 8 }`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS within that pseudo-selector SHALL order `px` before `pl`
+
+#### Scenario: Ordering in variant styles
+- **WHEN** a variant style object contains shorthand and longhand props for the same CSS property family
+- **THEN** the shorthand prop's declarations SHALL emit before the longhand prop's declarations
+
+### Requirement: Source order preserved within cascade tiers
+Within the same cascade tier, props SHALL maintain their source definition order as a tiebreaker.
+
+#### Scenario: Two longhands preserve source order
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `{ pl: 8, pr: 4 }` (both tier-2 longhands)
+- **THEN** `padding-left` SHALL emit before `padding-right`, matching source order
+
+#### Scenario: Two multi-target shorthands preserve source order
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `{ py: 2, px: 3 }` (both tier-1 multi-target)
+- **THEN** `py`'s declarations SHALL emit before `px`'s declarations, matching source order
+
+### Requirement: JSON object key ordering uses insertion order
+The `serde_json` dependency SHALL use the `preserve_order` feature so that `serde_json::Map` uses `IndexMap` (insertion-ordered) instead of `BTreeMap` (alphabetical).
+
+#### Scenario: Style evaluator preserves AST source order
+- **WHEN** the style evaluator converts `{ px: 3, py: 2, pl: 8 }` from AST to `serde_json::Value`
+- **THEN** iterating the resulting object's keys SHALL yield `px`, `py`, `pl` in that order (not alphabetical `pl`, `px`, `py`)

+## Context
+
+The Rust extraction pipeline now reports per-phase timing via `PipelineTiming` (serialized in `UniverseManifest.timing`). The vite-plugin displays this as a flat waterfall in verbose mode. But the JS wrapping around the NAPI call — file I/O, JSON serialization, Lightning CSS, per-file transforms — has 12 distinct operations with only 3 timed.
+
+Current buildStart timing gaps (confirmed by source audit):
+- File read loop (readFileSync × N + MD5 hash × N) — **zero timing**
+- External package resolution (async Vite resolve + FS walk) — **zero timing**
+- JSON.stringify(fileEntries) before NAPI call — **hidden inside "analysis" timing**
+- JSON.parse(manifestJson) after NAPI call — **hidden inside "analysis" timing**
+- Lightning CSS postProcessCss in load hook — **zero timing**
+- Per-file transformFile NAPI calls — **zero aggregate timing**
+
+Industry research (Rollup `--perf`, speed-measure-webpack, vite-plugin-inspect) confirms `performance.now()` with a no-op gate is the standard approach.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Complete timing coverage of all JS-side operations in both plugins
+- Decompose the NAPI boundary into serialize + call + parse
+- Aggregate per-file transform timing (min/max/avg/total)
+- Zero overhead when verbose is off (Rollup-inspired no-op gate)
+- Hierarchical waterfall display nesting JS phases around Rust phases
+- Optional structured JSON output for CI perf tracking
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing any Rust timing code (already complete)
+- Per-file timing breakdown (useful but adds hot-loop overhead — separate future concern)
+- Tracing/flamegraph integration (future work, requires `node --prof` or `perf_hooks` PerformanceObserver)
+- Memory tracking (Rollup does `[ms, mem_delta, total_mem]` — useful but adds complexity, defer)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Zero-cost timer gate via function replacement
+
+```ts
+const now = verbose ? () => performance.now() : () => 0;
+const elapsed = verbose ? (t: number) => Math.round(performance.now() - t) : () => 0;
+```
+
+When `verbose` is false, `now()` returns 0 and `elapsed()` returns 0. No `performance.now()` calls, no math. The JIT will likely inline these to constants. This follows Rollup's pattern exactly.
+
+**Why not conditional checks at each call site?** `if (verbose) { const t = performance.now(); }` at 20+ call sites is noisy. The function replacement centralizes the gate and reads cleanly: `const t = now(); /* work */ const ms = elapsed(t);`
+
+### 2. Hierarchical timing tree as flat object with dot-notation keys
+
+The timing data is stored as a flat `Record<string, number>` with hierarchical keys:
+
+```ts
+{
+  "buildStart": 127,
+  "buildStart.systemLoad": 29,
+  "buildStart.fileDiscovery": 4,
+  "buildStart.fileRead": 12,
+  "buildStart.packageResolve": 8,
+  "buildStart.analysis": 68,
+  "buildStart.analysis.jsonSerialize": 5,
+  "buildStart.analysis.rustExtract": 16,
+  "buildStart.analysis.jsonParse": 2,
+  "buildStart.lightningCss": 6,
+  "buildStart.fileCount": 67,
+  "buildStart.cacheHits": 0,
+  "transform.total": 45,
+  "transform.count": 67,
+  "transform.min": 0,
+  "transform.max": 3,
+  "transform.avg": 0.67
+}
+```
+
+The Rust `PipelineTiming` phases are merged under `buildStart.analysis.rustExtract.*` when building JSON output but displayed as nested indentation in the human-readable waterfall.
+
+**Why flat object, not nested?** Simpler to serialize, grep-friendly in JSON output, no depth assumptions in the display code.
+
+### 3. Waterfall display rewrite — two-level nesting
+
+Replace the current flat `logTimingWaterfall(timing)` with a hierarchical display:
+
+```
+[animus] Extracted 194/200 components
+[animus]   system-load         29ms
+[animus]   file-discovery       4ms  (67 files)
+[animus]   file-read+hash      12ms
+[animus]   package-resolve      8ms  (2 packages)
+[animus]   analysis            68ms
+[animus]     json-serialize     5ms
+[animus]     rust-extract      16ms
+[animus]       parse+walk       0ms  (67 files, 0 cached)
+[animus]       imports          0ms
+[animus]       chains           2ms
+[animus]       jsx-scan         2ms
+[animus]       css-gen          2ms
+[animus]       serialize        0ms
+[animus]     json-parse         2ms
+[animus]   lightning-css        6ms
+[animus]   total              127ms
+[animus] Transforms: 67 files, 45ms total (min 0ms, max 3ms, avg 0.7ms)
+```
+
+The existing `logTimingWaterfall` is refactored into a `logBuildTimings(jsTiming, rustTiming)` that composes both layers.
+
+### 4. ANIMUS_TIMING_JSON=1 structured output
+
+When `process.env.ANIMUS_TIMING_JSON === '1'`, after the human-readable waterfall, emit a single JSON line to stdout:
+
+```
+[animus:timing] {"buildStart":127,"buildStart.systemLoad":29,...,"rust.parseAndWalk":0,...}
+```
+
+Prefixed with `[animus:timing]` for grep extraction in CI. The JSON merges JS timing + Rust PipelineTiming into a single flat namespace. CI can diff two builds' JSON output to detect regressions.
+
+### 5. Transform aggregate collector
+
+A simple accumulator object reset at each `buildStart`:
+
+```ts
+const transformStats = { total: 0, count: 0, min: Infinity, max: 0 };
+```
+
+Each `transformFile()` call in the transform hook adds its duration. The stats are reported after all transforms complete (in the waterfall summary). In dev mode, stats accumulate across HMR cycles — the waterfall shows per-cycle stats.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[performance.now() precision]** → Sub-millisecond on all platforms. Rounding to integer ms matches Vite's own convention.
+- **[Zero-cost gate correctness]** → If `verbose` changes mid-build (shouldn't happen), timings will be inconsistent. Acceptable — verbose is set once at configResolved.
+- **[Flat key namespace collision]** → Dot-notation keys like `buildStart.analysis.rustExtract` could theoretically collide. Mitigated by using a fixed, documented key set.
+- **[Transform stats in dev]** → In dev mode with HMR, transform stats accumulate per HMR cycle, not per full build. The waterfall already shows "HMR update" context so this is clear.

+## Why
+
+The previous change (`standardized-pipeline-timing`) instrumented the Rust extraction phases inside `analyzeProject()`. But the JS plugin wrapping has 12 distinct operations in `buildStart` and only 3 are timed. The hidden JS costs — file I/O, JSON serialization across the NAPI boundary, Lightning CSS post-processing, per-file transforms — are completely invisible. Every optimization decision about the JS layer is speculation without this data.

+Industry research confirms `performance.now()` with a zero-cost gate (Rollup's pattern) is the standard approach. Tailwind and vanilla-extract have zero timing instrumentation — we're already ahead of the field after the Rust work, this closes the JS gap.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Zero-cost timer gate:** `now()` and `elapsed()` helpers that become no-ops when `verbose` is false — zero overhead in production
+- **buildStart full coverage:** Wrap all 12 operations with timing — system-load, file-discovery, file-read+hash, package-resolve, JSON serialize, NAPI call, JSON parse, diagnostics
+- **Analysis decomposition:** Break the single "analysis" timing into three sub-phases — `JSON.stringify(fileEntries)`, Rust NAPI `analyzeProject()`, and `JSON.parse(manifestJson)` — so NAPI boundary costs are visible alongside the Rust `PipelineTiming`
+- **Aggregate transform timing:** Collect `transformFile()` NAPI call durations per build, report min/max/avg/total in verbose output
+- **Lightning CSS timing:** Time `postProcessCss()` WASM calls in load hooks
+- **HMR timing gaps:** Time file-read + content-hash check in `handleHotUpdate`
+- **Hierarchical waterfall display:** JS phases wrap around existing Rust `PipelineTiming` as nested sub-tree, replacing the flat waterfall with a two-level view
+- **Structured JSON output:** `ANIMUS_TIMING_JSON=1` env var emits the complete timing tree as a single JSON blob for CI regression tracking
+- **Next-plugin equivalent:** Same timer gate, analysis decomposition, and waterfall display
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `js-pipeline-timing`: Zero-cost JS-side timing instrumentation across vite-plugin and next-plugin — buildStart phases, transform aggregates, Lightning CSS, HMR, structured JSON output
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `pipeline-timing`: Hierarchical waterfall now nests JS phases around Rust phases; `ANIMUS_TIMING_JSON` structured output
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Verbose waterfall expands from Rust-only to full JS+Rust hierarchy; transform aggregate timing; Lightning CSS timing
+- `next-webpack-integration`: Verbose waterfall expands to full JS+Rust hierarchy
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Vite plugin:** `index.ts` — timer helpers, buildStart instrumentation, transform aggregate collector, load hook timing, waterfall display rewrite
+- **Next plugin:** `plugin.ts` — same timer helpers, analysis decomposition, waterfall display
+- **No Rust changes** — `PipelineTiming` and `UniverseManifest` are unchanged
+- **No new dependencies** — `performance.now()` is from `node:perf_hooks` (Node.js stdlib)
+- **No behavioral changes** — pure observability addition

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Zero-cost timer gate
+The plugin SHALL provide `now()` and `elapsed()` timing helpers that return real `performance.now()` values when verbose mode is active and return `0` when verbose mode is inactive. This ensures zero measurement overhead in production builds.
+
+#### Scenario: Verbose mode active
+- **WHEN** `verbose: true` or `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1` is set
+- **THEN** `now()` SHALL return `performance.now()` and `elapsed(start)` SHALL return the rounded millisecond difference
+
+#### Scenario: Verbose mode inactive
+- **WHEN** verbose is false and `ANIMUS_DEBUG` is not set
+- **THEN** `now()` SHALL return `0` and `elapsed(start)` SHALL return `0` — no `performance.now()` calls occur
+
+### Requirement: buildStart full phase timing
+The vite-plugin SHALL measure every distinct operation in `buildStart` using the timer gate. Each phase SHALL be collected into a timing record for display and optional JSON output.
+
+#### Scenario: All buildStart phases timed
+- **WHEN** `buildStart` executes with verbose mode active
+- **THEN** the following phases SHALL each have independent timing: system-load, file-discovery, file-read+hash, package-resolve, analysis (decomposed into json-serialize + rust-extract + json-parse), lightning-css, and total
+
+#### Scenario: Analysis decomposition
+- **WHEN** `runAnalysis()` executes
+- **THEN** the timing SHALL separately report: duration of `JSON.stringify(fileEntries)` (json-serialize), duration of the `analyzeProject()` NAPI call (rust-extract), and duration of `JSON.parse(manifestJson)` (json-parse)
+
+### Requirement: Aggregate per-file transform timing
+The plugin SHALL collect timing for each `transformFile()` NAPI call and report aggregate statistics.
+
+#### Scenario: Transform stats after build
+- **WHEN** a production build completes and verbose mode is active
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL report total transform time, file count, minimum per-file time, maximum per-file time, and average per-file time
+
+#### Scenario: Transform stats reset per cycle
+- **WHEN** an HMR update triggers in dev mode
+- **THEN** the transform aggregate stats SHALL report only the transforms executed in that HMR cycle, not cumulative across all cycles
+
+### Requirement: Lightning CSS timing
+The plugin SHALL time `postProcessCss()` calls in the load hook.
+
+#### Scenario: CSS post-processing timed
+- **WHEN** a virtual module is loaded and CSS post-processing (autoprefixing, minification) executes
+- **THEN** the duration SHALL be captured and included in the buildStart waterfall as the `lightning-css` phase
+
+### Requirement: Structured JSON timing output
+When `ANIMUS_TIMING_JSON=1` is set, the plugin SHALL emit a single JSON line containing the complete timing tree after the human-readable waterfall.
+
+#### Scenario: JSON output emitted
+- **WHEN** `ANIMUS_TIMING_JSON=1` is set and verbose mode is active
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL emit a line prefixed with `[animus:timing]` containing a flat JSON object with dot-notation hierarchical keys merging JS phases and Rust `PipelineTiming` phases
+
+#### Scenario: JSON not emitted without env var
+- **WHEN** `ANIMUS_TIMING_JSON` is not set
+- **THEN** no JSON timing line SHALL be emitted — only the human-readable waterfall (if verbose)

+When verbose mode is enabled, the next-plugin SHALL display hierarchical per-phase timing after extraction completes, using the same waterfall format as the vite-plugin. The zero-cost timer gate SHALL ensure no overhead when verbose is off.
+
+#### Scenario: Verbose build shows hierarchical breakdown

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Per-phase timing collection in project analyzer
+The project analyzer SHALL collect wall-clock duration for each pipeline phase using `std::time::Instant`. Timing SHALL be collected unconditionally (not gated by a flag) because the overhead is negligible (~25ns per measurement point).
+
+#### Scenario: All phases timed
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` executes a full extraction
+- **THEN** the returned manifest SHALL contain a `timing` object with millisecond durations for: `parseAndWalk`, `importResolution`, `extensionProvenance`, `topologicalSort`, `chainEvaluation`, `jsxScanning`, `systemPropAggregation`, `usageLedger`, `reconciliation`, `cssGeneration`, `manifestSerialization`
+
+#### Scenario: Sub-millisecond phases report zero
+- **WHEN** a phase completes in under 1 millisecond
+- **THEN** its timing value SHALL be `0` (u64 truncation, not rounding)
+
+#### Scenario: Cache-hit files skip parse timing
+- **WHEN** Phase 1 encounters cached files that skip parsing
+- **THEN** the `parseAndWalk` duration SHALL reflect only the time spent on cache-miss files (the actual parse work), and `cacheHits` SHALL report the count of skipped files
+
+#### Scenario: Rust timing nests within JS analysis phase
+- **WHEN** the JS plugin displays timing in verbose mode
+- **THEN** the Rust `PipelineTiming` phases SHALL be displayed as a nested sub-tree under the JS `analysis.rustExtract` phase, showing the decomposition of NAPI call time

+## Context
+
+The current `@animus-ui/next-plugin` architecture was designed for Webpack-era Next.js (circa 2022). It integrates via:
+- `AnimusWebpackPlugin.apply(compiler)` → `compiler.hooks.run/watchRun` for analysis timing
+- `NormalModuleReplacementPlugin` for virtual module resolution
+- A custom loader (`enforce: 'pre'`) for per-file source transformation + CSS injection
+- `globalThis` singleton for cross-compiler state sharing
+
+Next.js 16+ defaults to Turbopack, which ignores Webpack plugins entirely. Turbopack supports a limited loader API via `turbopack.rules` but has no equivalent to `compiler.hooks` or `NormalModuleReplacementPlugin`.
+
+The `embedded-transform-eval` change (prereq) eliminates all subprocess IPC from the extraction pipeline. Once it lands, `analyzeProject()` is a single synchronous NAPI call that produces fully-resolved CSS. This enables moving extraction out of the bundler lifecycle entirely.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Extraction works identically under Webpack and Turbopack — zero behavioral divergence
+- Source transformation works via loaders registered for both bundlers
+- CSS delivery uses bundler-native alias resolution, not regex injection
+- Dev mode file watching is independent of bundler hooks
+- Migration path for existing users is a single import addition
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- SWC plugin integration (rejected — loses OXC's zero-copy arena AST, Wasm overhead, different AST model)
+- Turbopack-native plugin API (doesn't exist yet — architecture should survive its eventual arrival)
+- Eliminating the system load subprocess (subprocess 1 — remains until a future Rust-native config loader)
+- Streaming/incremental extraction (full analysis per run is sufficient at current scale)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Extraction runs in `withAnimus()`, not in compiler hooks
+
+**Choice**: Call `runExtraction()` synchronously during `withAnimus()` config resolution. The returned config function has the manifest and CSS already computed.
+
+**Rationale**: `withAnimus()` executes when `next.config.ts` is evaluated — before any bundler boots. This is the only lifecycle point shared by Webpack and Turbopack. By the time either bundler starts, `.animus/styles.css` exists on disk and the manifest is ready for the loader.
+
+**Tradeoff**: Config resolution becomes ~200-500ms slower (extraction time). Acceptable — this runs once at startup, not per-request.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Run extraction in a background thread and await it in the first loader call. Rejected — adds complexity and non-deterministic timing. The synchronous model is simpler and the perf cost is paid once.
+
+### 2. User-land CSS import with dual resolve alias
+
+**Choice**: Users add `import '@animus-ui/styles'` to their root layout. `withAnimus()` registers:
+- Webpack: `resolve.alias['@animus-ui/styles'] = path.resolve('.animus/styles.css')`
+- Turbopack: `turbopack.resolveAlias['@animus-ui/styles'] = path.resolve('.animus/styles.css')`
+
+**Rationale**: Both bundlers support resolve aliases natively. The CSS file is a real file on disk, so both bundlers can watch it, chunk it, and deduplicate it using their own mechanisms. No virtual modules, no regex injection, no `NormalModuleReplacementPlugin`.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Keep auto-injection via loader. Rejected — the regex approach (`ROOT_ENTRY_RE`) is fundamentally brittle and requires tracking every Next.js routing convention. A single explicit import is simpler, more robust, and gives the user control over where CSS loads.
+
+**Migration**: **BREAKING** for existing users. Migration is one line: add `import '@animus-ui/styles'` to root layout. The plugin can warn if the import is missing (check during extraction or loader phase).
+
+### 3. Loader registered for both Webpack and Turbopack
+
+**Choice**: The loader handles only source transformation (calling `transformFile()` via NAPI). CSS injection logic is removed entirely. Registration:
+
+```typescript
+// Webpack
+config.module.rules.push({ test: /\.[jt]sx?$/, enforce: 'pre', use: loaderPath });
+// Turbopack  
+config.turbopack = { rules: { '*.tsx': { loaders: [loaderPath] }, '*.ts': { ... } } };
+```
+
+**Rationale**: Turbopack supports a subset of Webpack loaders via `turbopack.rules`. The Animus loader is simple enough (read source → call NAPI → return transformed source) to work in both environments. The key simplification is removing all CSS-related logic from the loader.
+
+### 4. Chokidar file watcher for dev HMR
+
+**Choice**: In dev mode, `withAnimus()` spawns a chokidar watcher on the source directories. On file change: hash-check → if changed, re-run `analyzeProject()` → rewrite `.animus/styles.css` → Next.js detects CSS change → hot reload.
+
+**Rationale**: `compiler.hooks.watchRun` is Webpack-only. Chokidar is already used internally by Next.js and Vite. An independent watcher works regardless of which bundler runs the compilation. The CSS file is a real file — both Webpack and Turbopack will detect changes and trigger updates.
+
+**Cleanup**: The watcher should be stopped on process exit. Use `process.on('SIGINT', ...)` and `process.on('exit', ...)`.
+
+### 5. Atomic CSS writes via temp file + rename
+
+**Choice**: Write CSS to `.animus/styles.css.tmp`, then `renameSync()` to `.animus/styles.css`. Content-hash the output to skip writes when nothing changed.
+
+**Rationale**: `rename()` is atomic on POSIX and near-atomic on Windows NTFS. Prevents partial reads when multiple compilers (or the dev server) read the CSS file concurrently. The content-hash skip prevents unnecessary file watches from triggering when extraction produces identical output.
+
+### 6. System props module as a real file, not virtual
+
+**Choice**: Write `.animus/system-props.js` alongside `.animus/styles.css`. Map it via resolve alias: `@animus-ui/system-props` → `.animus/system-props.js`.
+
+**Rationale**: Eliminates `NormalModuleReplacementPlugin` and virtual module resolution entirely. Both bundlers handle real files natively. The file contains the same `systemPropMap`, `dynamicPropConfig`, and `transforms` exports currently served via the virtual module.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Config resolution blocking** → Extraction adds ~200-500ms to config evaluation. Mitigation: This is comparable to current `compiler.hooks.run` timing. Users don't notice because it happens once during `next dev` or `next build` startup.
+
+**[Risk] Chokidar adds a dependency** → Chokidar is ~200KB. Mitigation: Next.js already depends on chokidar internally. The version may differ — pin to a compatible range.
+
+**[Risk] BREAKING: manual CSS import required** → Existing users must add one import line. Mitigation: The plugin can detect missing import during the loader phase (no `@animus-ui/styles` in any processed file) and emit a clear warning with the exact line to add.
+
+**[Risk] Turbopack loader compatibility** → Turbopack's loader support is documented as a subset of Webpack's. Mitigation: The Animus loader uses only basic loader APIs (receive source string, return transformed string). No pitch loaders, no emitFile, no async loader patterns.
+
+**[Risk] File watcher resource usage** → Chokidar in polling mode can be expensive for large directories. Mitigation: Use native FS events (default), limit watch to the same directory patterns used by `discoverFiles()`, debounce rapid changes.

+## Why
+
+The `@animus-ui/next-plugin` is built on Webpack plugin APIs (`compiler.hooks.run`, `compiler.hooks.watchRun`, `NormalModuleReplacementPlugin`) that Turbopack does not support. As of Next.js 16, Turbopack is the default bundler for both dev and build. Users running `next dev` with the current plugin get zero extraction — Turbopack silently ignores the `AnimusWebpackPlugin`.
+
+Three additional architectural fragilities compound the issue:
+
+1. **CSS injection via `ROOT_ENTRY_RE` regex** (`/^(src\/)?(?:app\/layout|pages\/_app)\.[tj]sx?$/`) — fails for route groups (`app/(marketing)/layout.tsx`), internationalized routing (`app/[locale]/layout.tsx`), parallel routes, and any non-standard layout structure.
+2. **No cross-compiler mutex on `.animus/styles.css` writes** — Next.js runs 3+ Webpack compilers concurrently (client, server, edge). The Promise deduplication in `singleton.ts` prevents duplicate analysis but doesn't protect the file write itself.
+3. **Coupling to compiler lifecycle** — extraction timing depends on Webpack hook ordering, making it impossible to support bundlers that don't expose equivalent hooks.
+
+**Prereq**: `embedded-transform-eval` must land first. It eliminates all subprocess IPC, so the extraction pipeline produces fully-resolved CSS in Rust with no external orchestration needed. Without it, the prebuild phase would still require subprocess coordination.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Move extraction out of Webpack hooks into `withAnimus()` setup phase** — `analyzeProject()` runs synchronously during config resolution, before Next.js boots any bundler. Bundler-agnostic by design.
+- **Replace auto-injection with user-land CSS import + resolve alias** — expose `@animus-ui/styles` as an importable path mapped to `.animus/styles.css` via both `resolve.alias` (Webpack) and `resolveAlias` (Turbopack). User adds one import to their root layout. Eliminates `ROOT_ENTRY_RE` entirely.
+- **Register loader for both Webpack and Turbopack** — the per-file NAPI transform runs as a loader. `with-animus.ts` registers it in both `module.rules` (Webpack) and `turbopack.rules` (Turbopack). Loader no longer handles CSS injection — just source transformation.
+- **File watch via chokidar for dev HMR** — replace `compiler.hooks.watchRun` with an independent file watcher. On source file change, re-run analysis and rewrite `.animus/styles.css`. Next.js watches the CSS file natively and triggers hot reload.
+- **Remove `AnimusWebpackPlugin` class** — the plugin class, `compiler.hooks` registration, and `NormalModuleReplacementPlugin` usage are eliminated. All functionality moves to the config setup phase and the loader.
+- **Add content-hash mutex for CSS writes** — atomic write with temp file + rename to prevent partial reads during concurrent compilation.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `prebuild-extraction`: Bundler-agnostic extraction pipeline that runs during config resolution, before any compiler boots
+- `turbopack-loader`: Per-file source transformation compatible with Turbopack's `turbopack.rules` loader API
+- `file-watch-hmr`: Independent chokidar-based file watcher for dev mode incremental extraction, decoupled from bundler lifecycle
+- `manual-css-import`: User-land CSS import path (`@animus-ui/styles`) resolved via bundler-native alias mechanisms
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `next-webpack-integration`: Webpack plugin class eliminated, loader simplified to transform-only (no CSS injection), resolve aliases replace `NormalModuleReplacementPlugin`
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/next-plugin/src/plugin.ts` — **Deleted or gutted**. `AnimusWebpackPlugin` class removed. Pipeline logic moves to a standalone `runExtraction()` function called from `withAnimus()`.
+- `packages/next-plugin/src/loader.ts` — Simplified to transform-only. `ROOT_ENTRY_RE` and CSS stripping/injection removed.
+- `packages/next-plugin/src/with-animus.ts` — Major rewrite. Calls extraction at config time. Registers loader for both Webpack and Turbopack. Sets up resolve aliases for both bundlers.
+- `packages/next-plugin/src/singleton.ts` — Simplified or eliminated. No more cross-compiler Promise coordination needed since extraction runs before compilers.
+- `packages/next-plugin/package.json` — Add `chokidar` dependency for dev file watching.
+- **Consumer-facing**: Users must add `import '@animus-ui/styles'` to their root layout. **BREAKING** for existing users who relied on auto-injection — migration guide needed.
+- **No changes to**: `@animus-ui/extract` (Rust crate), `@animus-ui/system`, or the Vite plugin.

+#### Scenario: Source file changes in dev
+- **WHEN** a developer modifies a component file during `next dev`
+- **THEN** the file watcher SHALL detect the change, re-run `analyzeProject()`, and rewrite `.animus/styles.css` if the output changed

+#### Scenario: CSS file unchanged after re-analysis
+- **WHEN** a file change is detected but `analyzeProject()` produces identical CSS output (content-hash match)

+
+#### Scenario: System file geological reset
+- **WHEN** the system file (`ds.ts`) changes during dev
+- **THEN** the watcher SHALL trigger a full pipeline reset: reload system config, re-run analysis, rewrite all outputs
+
+### Requirement: Watcher cleanup on process exit
+The file watcher SHALL be stopped and cleaned up when the dev server process exits.
+
+#### Scenario: Dev server terminated
+- **WHEN** the user stops `next dev` via SIGINT or SIGTERM
+- **THEN** the chokidar watcher SHALL be closed to prevent orphaned file handles

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: CSS import via resolve alias
+The plugin SHALL expose `@animus-ui/styles` as an importable path, resolved to `.animus/styles.css` via bundler-native alias mechanisms.
+
+#### Scenario: Webpack resolve alias
+- **WHEN** Next.js uses Webpack
+- **THEN** `resolve.alias['@animus-ui/styles']` SHALL point to the absolute path of `.animus/styles.css`
+
+#### Scenario: Turbopack resolve alias
+- **WHEN** Next.js uses Turbopack
+- **THEN** `turbopack.resolveAlias['@animus-ui/styles']` SHALL point to the absolute path of `.animus/styles.css`
+
+#### Scenario: User imports CSS in root layout
+- **WHEN** a user adds `import '@animus-ui/styles'` to their root layout file
+- **THEN** the bundler SHALL resolve it to `.animus/styles.css` and include the styles in the application bundle
+
+### Requirement: Missing import detection
+The plugin SHALL warn when no file in the project imports `@animus-ui/styles`.
+
+#### Scenario: CSS import missing
+- **WHEN** extraction completes and the loader processes files without encountering an `@animus-ui/styles` import
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL emit a warning with the exact import line to add and the recommended file location
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Auto-injection via ROOT_ENTRY_RE
+**Reason**: The regex-based root entry detection (`ROOT_ENTRY_RE`) is brittle for route groups, internationalized routing, and parallel routes. Replaced by explicit user-land import.
+**Migration**: Add `import '@animus-ui/styles'` to your root layout file (e.g., `app/layout.tsx`).

+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: AnimusWebpackPlugin class
+**Reason**: The Webpack plugin class (`compiler.hooks.run`, `compiler.hooks.watchRun`) is incompatible with Turbopack. Extraction timing is handled by prebuild-extraction instead.
+**Migration**: No consumer action needed — the plugin class was internal.
+
+### Requirement: NormalModuleReplacementPlugin for virtual modules
+**Reason**: Virtual module resolution via Webpack-specific plugin is replaced by physical files + resolve aliases that work in both Webpack and Turbopack.
+**Migration**: No consumer action needed — virtual modules are replaced transparently.
+
+### Requirement: Cross-compiler Promise deduplication
+**Reason**: `singleton.ts` Promise coordination is unnecessary when extraction runs before any compiler boots. There is no race because there is no concurrent execution.

+## Context
+
+The Rust extraction crate (`packages/extract/`) is the performance-critical core of the Animus build pipeline. It parses TS/TSX via oxc, walks builder chains, evaluates style objects to static `serde_json::Value`, resolves theme scales, and generates `@layer`-structured CSS. Current state:
+
+- **~200+ `HashMap`/`HashSet` instances** across 12 source files, all string-keyed, using `std::collections` SipHash (cryptographic, unnecessary overhead for non-adversarial data).
+- **Phase 1 is sequential**: Each file gets its own `Allocator`, produces independent results (chains, module info, transforms), but the loop runs serially under a mutex lock that's only needed for cache hits.
+- **`style_evaluator::eval_expression` bails on ALL identifiers** (line 230): `Expression::Identifier(_) => Err(BailError::new("variable reference (non-static)"))`. This means `const GAP = 16; styles({ gap: GAP })` skips the `gap` property even though the value is provably static.
+- **`process_chain` re-parses each stage's argument span** via `parse_object_from_source` (lib.rs:667). This creates a fresh mini-AST per stage, disconnected from the file's full AST and any semantic context.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Swap all HashMap/HashSet to FxHashMap/FxHashSet for faster string hashing
+- Parallelize Phase 1 file parsing with rayon
+- Add Linux linker flag for NAPI worker-thread safety
+- Enable static resolution of const/import identifiers in style evaluation
+- Increase extraction coverage — properties currently skipped as "non-static" that ARE provably static should extract
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Scope-aware shadowing detection (oxc_semantic scope tree) — deferred until a real bug motivates it
+- Object spread resolution (`{ ...baseConfig }`) — requires full merge semantics, continues to bail
+- Moving CSS post-processing (lightningcss) into Rust — architectural change for a future session
+- Replacing `import_resolver.rs` with `oxc_resolver` — different problem domains
+- Dynamic expression evaluation (function calls, ternaries, template literals with expressions)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: FxHashMap via type alias swap
+
+**Choice:** Add `rustc-hash` crate, create type aliases, find-and-replace across crate.
+
+**Rationale:** `theme_resolver.rs` already defines type aliases (`PropConfigMap`, `FlatTheme`, `VariableMap`, etc.) that many modules consume. Changing the underlying type at the alias site propagates to all consumers. For files that use `HashMap` directly, swap imports.
+
+**Alternative considered:** `ahash` — similar performance but `rustc-hash` is simpler (no runtime seed), widely used in the Rust compiler and Tailwind Oxide. For deterministic string-keyed maps, FxHash is ideal.
+
+### Decision 2: Rayon Phase 1 — split cache-hit and cache-miss paths
+
+**Choice:** Restructure Phase 1 into two passes:
+1. **Cache-hit pass** (sequential, under lock): Iterate files, extract matching cache entries. Quick — just HashMap removes.
+2. **Cache-miss pass** (parallel, lock-free): Collect cache-miss files into a Vec, then `par_iter()` over them. Each spawned task creates its own `Allocator`, parses, walks chains, extracts transforms. Collect results into per-file structs, then merge into the main maps sequentially.
+
+**Rationale:** The current loop holds the mutex for the entire Phase 1 duration. Cache hits need the lock (they `remove()` from the shared cache). Cache misses don't touch the cache at all — they only produce new data. Separating them lets misses run in parallel.
+
+**Data flow:**
+```
+files → partition → [cache_hits] → sequential under lock → insert into maps
+                  → [cache_misses] → par_iter (each: allocator + parse + walk + extract)
+                                   → collect Vec<FileResult>
+                                   → sequential merge into maps
+```
+
+**Why not par_iter the whole loop:** The cache HashMap is behind a Mutex. Taking/releasing the lock per-file in parallel would cause contention and potential deadlocks with the current `remove()`-based ownership pattern.
+
+### Decision 3: Static value map for identifier resolution
+
+**Choice:** Build a per-file "static value map" (`HashMap<String, Value>`) during Phase 1, pass it through to `eval_expression` for identifier resolution.
+
+**Architecture:**
+
+```
+Phase 1 (per file):
+  parse → AST
+  walk top-level VariableDeclarations (const only)
+    → for each: try eval_object_expr / eval_expression on init
+    → success: insert (binding_name → Value) into file's static_values map
+    → failure: skip (non-static init, complex expression)
+  also build: static_exports map (exported names → Value)
+
+Phase 2 (after binding resolution):
+  for each file:
+    for each import in module_info.imports:
+      resolve via binding_map → (source_file, export_name)
+      look up source_file's static_exports → Value
+      insert into file's static_values as local_name → Value
+
+Phase 5 (evaluation):
+  process_chain receives &static_values for the file
+  parse_object_from_source receives &static_values
+  eval_expression: on Identifier(name) →
+    check static_values.get(name) → Some(value) → Ok(value.clone())
+    None → Err(BailError) (current behavior)
+```
+
+**Why not oxc_semantic for this:** SemanticBuilder gives you a symbol table and scope tree, but to get a symbol's *value* you still need to evaluate its init expression — which is what our `eval_expression` already does. The simple AST walk over top-level `const` declarations gets the same result without the semantic analysis overhead. Semantic adds scope-awareness (detecting shadowed variables), but for top-level module-scope consts — which is 95%+ of the real-world use case — a simple walk is sufficient and faster.
+
+**Why const only:** `let` and `var` are mutable. A `let` binding could be reassigned between declaration and usage. `const` guarantees the value at declaration site IS the value at usage site. This is the same reasoning TypeScript uses for literal type narrowing.
+
+### Decision 4: Tier 2 — Object reference resolution
+
+**Choice:** When `parse_object_from_source` encounters an expression that is an Identifier (not an ObjectExpression), check the static value map. If the resolved value is a `Value::Object`, use it directly.
+
+**Current behavior:** `parse_object_from_source` expects a `(...)` wrapped source that parses to an `ObjectExpression`. If the stage argument is an identifier like `styles(config)`, it returns `"failed to parse object expression"`.
+
+**New behavior:**
+```
+parse_object_from_source(source, static_values):
+  parse source as expression
+  if ObjectExpression → eval as before
+  if Identifier → look up in static_values
+    if Value::Object → return it (with empty skips/captures)
+    else → error
+  else → error as before
+```
+
+### Decision 5: Linux linker flag
+
+**Choice:** Add `[target.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu]` and `[target.aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu]` sections to `.cargo/config.toml` with `rustflags = ["-C", "link-arg=-Wl,-z,nodelete"]`.
+
+**Rationale:** Prevents segfault when Node.js unloads worker threads while the native addon's thread-local storage is still mapped. macOS uses Mach-O (not affected). This is a known NAPI-RS production issue.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] rayon thread pool + boa_engine interaction** → boa `Context` is created after Phase 1, not during. No interaction. The rayon pool is only used for parsing/walking, which is pure oxc (no boa).
+
+**[Risk] Static value map adds memory pressure** → Maps are per-file, contain only successfully-evaluated consts. For a typical file with 5-10 top-level consts, this is negligible. Maps are dropped after Phase 5.
+
+**[Risk] FxHashMap is not cryptographically secure** → Irrelevant. All data is from trusted source files during build. No adversarial input.
+
+**[Risk] Cross-file resolution depends on Phase 1→2 ordering** → By design. Static export maps are built in Phase 1 (per-file, independent). Cross-file resolution happens after Phase 2's binding_map is complete. This matches the existing pipeline ordering.
+
+**[Risk] Identifier resolution changes evaluation semantics** → Properties that previously skipped (becoming dynamic props) will now extract. If a user relied on the skip behavior (unlikely but possible), their component's runtime styling changes. Mitigation: extraction diagnostics will show newly-extracted properties. The existing canary tests verify the CSS output.
+
+**[Trade-off] Simple const walk vs SemanticBuilder** → We trade scope-awareness for simplicity and speed. A `const X = 16` inside a function body would be collected by our walk but wouldn't be in scope at the module level. Mitigation: we only walk top-level statements (direct children of `program.body`), not nested scopes. This naturally limits collection to module-scope declarations.

+## Why
+
+The Rust extraction crate leaves measurable performance on the table and fails to extract provably-static style values. Every `HashMap` uses SipHash (cryptographic, slow for string keys). Phase 1 parses files sequentially despite zero cross-file dependencies. And the style evaluator bails on ALL identifiers — meaning `const GAP = 16; styles({ gap: GAP })` skips the property even though the value is provably static. These are independent improvements that share a blast radius (Rust crate internals, no contract changes) and can ship together.
+
+## What Changes
+
+### Performance primitives
+- Replace all `std::collections::HashMap` / `HashSet` with `FxHashMap` / `FxHashSet` from `rustc-hash`. All ~200+ instances are string-keyed — ideal for non-cryptographic hashing.
+- Add `rayon` for Phase 1 parallel file parsing. Each file gets its own `oxc_allocator::Allocator` with no cross-file reads — embarrassingly parallel. Restructure the cache-lock pattern to hold the mutex only for cache hits, then `par_iter` over cache misses.
+- Add Linux `[target.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu]` linker flag (`-Wl,-z,nodelete`) to `.cargo/config.toml` to prevent NAPI worker-thread-unload segfault on Linux targets.
+
+### Semantic const/import resolution
+- Run `oxc_semantic::SemanticBuilder` per file during Phase 1 to produce a symbol table and scope tree.
+- Enhance `style_evaluator` to resolve `Expression::Identifier` nodes: look up the symbol → find declaration → recursively evaluate the init expression.
+- **Tier 1 — Intra-file const**: `const GAP = 16; styles({ gap: GAP })` → follow symbol to declaration → evaluate `16` → extract.
+- **Tier 2 — Intra-file object reference**: `const config = { gap: 16 }; styles(config)` → follow identifier to ObjectExpression → evaluate it.
+- **Tier 3 — Cross-file const/object**: Build a static export map during Phase 1 (`(file, export_name) → Value`). When evaluator hits an imported identifier, look up via existing binding resolution + export map.
+- **Explicit exclusion**: Object spreads (`{ ...baseConfig }`) continue to bail gracefully. Spread semantics require full object merge which is outside scope.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `semantic-const-resolution`: Static resolution of identifier references in style evaluation via oxc_semantic symbol tables, covering intra-file const, intra-file object, and cross-file imported values.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `extract-pipeline`: Performance characteristics change (FxHashMap, parallel Phase 1) but no behavioral contract changes.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Crate dependencies**: Add `rustc-hash`, `rayon`. `oxc_semantic` already present (used by transform_extractor for TS stripping).
+- **Binary size**: Small increase from rayon thread pool (~200KB). rustc-hash is negligible.
+- **Files modified**: `Cargo.toml`, `.cargo/config.toml`, `project_analyzer.rs`, `style_evaluator.rs`, `theme_resolver.rs`, `css_generator.rs`, `lib.rs`, `jsx_scanner.rs`, `chain_walker.rs`, `import_resolver.rs`, `transform_emitter.rs`, `chain_merger.rs`, `reconciler.rs` (HashMap swap touches all files).
+- **No plugin changes**: All changes contained within Rust crate. No NAPI signature changes. No manifest schema changes.
+- **Test impact**: Existing tests continue to pass. New tests for semantic resolution tiers. Some existing "skipped property" tests may now succeed (properties that were previously non-static become extractable).

+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Transform placeholder resolution function
+**Reason**: Transform placeholders (`__TRANSFORM__`) were eliminated in the embedded-transform-eval change. Transforms are now evaluated in-process via boa_engine during CSS generation. The `resolveTransformPlaceholders()` function is no longer needed.
+**Migration**: No migration needed. The function was only called from vite-plugin and next-plugin, both of which were updated to use the fully-resolved CSS from Rust directly.

+- **WHEN** a bundler plugin imports from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`
+- **THEN** it SHALL have access to `applyUnitFallback`, `applyPrefix`, `resolveGlobalStyles`, `resolveTokenAliases`, `resolveValue`, and `camelToKebab`

+#### Scenario: No orchestrator wrapper
+- **WHEN** a bundler plugin needs to run the extraction pipeline
+- **THEN** it SHALL call `analyzeProject()` from `@animus-ui/extract` directly for NAPI analysis, then compose pipeline utilities for post-processing. There is no single `runExtraction()` wrapper — each host owns its own lifecycle.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Intra-file const identifier resolution
+The style evaluator SHALL resolve `Expression::Identifier` nodes that reference top-level `const` declarations in the same file. When the identifier's declaration has a statically-evaluable init expression, the evaluator SHALL use the resolved value instead of bailing.
+
+#### Scenario: Numeric const used as style value
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const GAP = 16;` and a style object contains `{ gap: GAP }`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL resolve `GAP` to `16` and extract `gap: 16` as a static style value
+
+#### Scenario: String const used as style value
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const COLOR = 'red';` and a style object contains `{ color: COLOR }`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL resolve `COLOR` to `'red'` and extract `color: red` as a static style value
+
+#### Scenario: Non-static const skips gracefully
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const val = getSpacing();` and a style object contains `{ gap: val }`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL skip the property with reason "variable reference (non-static)" because the init expression is a function call
+
+#### Scenario: let/var declarations are not resolved
+- **WHEN** a file contains `let gap = 16;` and a style object contains `{ gap: gap }`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL skip the property because `let` bindings are mutable and cannot be statically guaranteed
+
+#### Scenario: Only module-scope declarations are collected
+- **WHEN** a `const` declaration appears inside a function body or block scope
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT be included in the static value map (only top-level `program.body` declarations are walked)
+
+### Requirement: Intra-file object reference resolution
+The style evaluator SHALL resolve identifiers that reference top-level `const` declarations whose init expression is an ObjectExpression. When `styles(config)` is called with an identifier argument instead of an inline object, the evaluator SHALL look up the identifier and evaluate the referenced object.
+
+#### Scenario: Object identifier as styles argument
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const config = { gap: 16, display: 'flex' };` and a chain contains `.styles(config)`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL resolve `config` to the object `{ gap: 16, display: 'flex' }` and extract both properties
+
+#### Scenario: Object with non-static properties
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const config = { gap: 16, color: someVar };` and a chain contains `.styles(config)`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL extract `gap: 16` and skip `color` with appropriate bail reason (per-property skip model preserved)
+
+#### Scenario: Object spread in referenced object still bails
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const config = { ...base, gap: 16 };` and a chain contains `.styles(config)`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL bail on the object due to spread element (existing behavior preserved)
+
+### Requirement: Cross-file imported const resolution
+The style evaluator SHALL resolve identifiers that reference imported `const` values from other files in the project. During Phase 1, each file's exported static values SHALL be collected into an export map. After binding resolution (Phase 2), imported identifiers SHALL be resolved by following the binding chain to the source file's export map.
+
+#### Scenario: Imported numeric const
+- **WHEN** file A contains `export const SPACING = 8;` and file B contains `import { SPACING } from './a'; styles({ padding: SPACING })`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL resolve `SPACING` to `8` via the cross-file export map and extract `padding: 8`
+
+#### Scenario: Imported object const
+- **WHEN** file A contains `export const baseStyles = { display: 'flex', gap: 16 };` and file B contains `import { baseStyles } from './a'; .styles(baseStyles)`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL resolve `baseStyles` to the object and extract both properties
+
+#### Scenario: Re-exported const
+- **WHEN** file A exports `SPACING`, file B re-exports it (`export { SPACING } from './a'`), and file C imports from B
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL follow the re-export chain (via existing binding resolution) and resolve to file A's value
+
+#### Scenario: Non-project import is not resolved
+- **WHEN** an import comes from a package (`import { X } from 'some-library'`)
+- **THEN** the identifier SHALL NOT be resolved (only project files with analyzed source are eligible) and the property SHALL skip with standard bail reason
+
+#### Scenario: Aliased import resolution
+- **WHEN** file A contains `export const GAP = 16;` and file B contains `import { GAP as spacing } from './a'; styles({ padding: spacing })`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL resolve the local name `spacing` to the exported value `16`

+- [x] 1.3 Swap `HashMap`/`HashSet` imports to `FxHashMap`/`FxHashSet` across all source files: `project_analyzer.rs`, `css_generator.rs`, `jsx_scanner.rs`, `chain_walker.rs`, `import_resolver.rs`, `transform_emitter.rs`, `chain_merger.rs`, `reconciler.rs`, `lib.rs`, `style_evaluator.rs`, `transform_extractor.rs`
+- [x] 1.4 Update NAPI-exported struct fields that use `HashMap` in public signatures (check `UniverseManifest`, `ExtractionResult`, etc.) — these must remain `HashMap` for serde compatibility or switch to `FxHashMap` with serde support
+- [x] 1.5 Verify: `cargo build --release` compiles cleanly, `bun run test:canary` passes
+
+## 2. Linux Linker Flag
+
+- [x] 2.1 Add `[target.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu]` and `[target.aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu]` sections to `.cargo/config.toml` with `rustflags = ["-C", "link-arg=-Wl,-z,nodelete"]`
+
+## 3. Rayon Phase 1 Parallelization
+
+- [x] 3.1 Add `rayon` dependency to `Cargo.toml`
+- [x] 3.2 Define a `FileParseResult` struct to hold per-file Phase 1 output: chains, module_info, extracted_transforms
+- [x] 3.3 Restructure Phase 1: extract cache-hit loop (sequential under lock) into its own block that collects cache-miss file references into a Vec
+- [x] 3.4 Add parallel cache-miss processing: `cache_misses.par_iter()` with per-file `Allocator` + parse + walk_chains + parse_module_info + extract_transforms, collecting into `Vec<FileParseResult>`
+- [x] 3.5 Sequential merge: iterate `Vec<FileParseResult>` and insert into `all_chains`, `file_modules`, `transforms_by_file`, `all_extracted_transforms`
+- [x] 3.6 Verify: `cargo build --release` compiles, `bun run test:canary` passes, no data races
+
+## 4. Static Value Map — Phase 1 Collection
+
+- [x] 4.1 Create `collect_static_values` function: walks `program.body` for top-level `const` VariableDeclarations, evaluates init expressions via `eval_expression`/`eval_object_expr`, returns `FxHashMap<String, Value>`
+- [x] 4.2 Create `collect_static_exports` function: given a file's `FileModuleInfo` exports and its static_values map, returns the subset of values that are exported (mapping export_name → Value)
+- [x] 4.3 Wire into Phase 1 cache-miss path: after parse + walk + module_info, call `collect_static_values` on the program, call `collect_static_exports`, store both maps per-file

+## 6. Identifier Resolution in Style Evaluator
+
+- [x] 6.1 Add `static_values: Option<&FxHashMap<String, Value>>` parameter to `eval_expression`
+- [x] 6.2 Change the `Expression::Identifier` arm: if `static_values` is provided, look up `ident.name` in the map. On hit, return `Ok(value.clone())`. On miss, fall through to existing `Err(BailError)`
+- [x] 6.3 Thread `static_values` through `eval_object_expr` → `eval_expression` call chain (all internal calls pass the map through)

+## 8. Threading Through Pipeline
+
+- [x] 8.1 Add `static_values` field to `ProcessingContext` or pass as separate parameter to `process_chain`
+- [x] 8.2 Update `project_analyzer.rs` Phase 5 loop: look up the file's `resolved_static_values` and pass to `process_chain`
+- [x] 8.3 Update per-file `extract()` in `lib.rs`: build static_values from the single file's AST, pass to `process_chain` (per-file mode has no cross-file resolution)
+- [x] 8.4 Update `css_generator.rs` test helpers if they construct `ProcessingContext`
+
+## 9. Tests and Verification

+## Context
+
+Sessions 62–67 moved all three subprocess operations (transform evaluation, global styles resolution, system module loading) into the Rust NAPI crate. Both plugins now call NAPI functions exclusively. The plugin code, docs, and CSS delivery architecture have not been updated to reflect this.
+
+The CSS generation pipeline currently concatenates all component CSS into per-layer strings (`CssSheets`). Individual component contributions are lost after `generate_layer_content_slice()`. This blocks incremental HMR (can't splice one component's CSS without regenerating everything) and future route-level code-splitting (can't identify which CSS belongs to which components).
+
+Measured from showcase: 196 components, 51 files, 149 KB total CSS. The 4 splittable layers (base, variants, compounds, states) account for 142 KB (95.6%). System/custom utilities (9.5 KB) are cross-cutting and stay monolithic.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Fix next-plugin selectorAliases/selectorOrder bug (correctness)
+- Remove dead subprocess code and stale references (hygiene)
+- Retain per-component CSS fragments in the Rust crate for the 4 splittable layers
+- Expose fragments in the NAPI manifest for plugin consumption
+- Enable incremental HMR splice in both plugins (replace only changed file's fragments)
+- Build reverse adjacency index for transitive `.extend()` invalidation
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Multi-sheet adopted stylesheets for dev HMR (future — builds on fragments)
+- SSR route-level code-splitting (future — needs route→file mapping from bundler)
+- Per-route CSS file generation in next-plugin (future)
+- Changing the consumer API (`animusExtract()` options, `withAnimus()` options)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Fragment container: Vec + FxHashMap side index
+
+**Choice:** `Vec<(String, String)>` for ordered storage, `FxHashMap<String, usize>` for O(1) lookup by component_id.
+
+**Why not HashMap:** Unordered — CSS cascade depends on topological insertion order (reconciled_order). Emitting fragments in wrong order changes cascade semantics.
+
+**Why not IndexMap:** Would work but adds a crate dependency not currently in Cargo.toml. The Vec + side index pattern is idiomatic Rust, zero additional dependencies.
+
+**Why not BTreeMap:** Sorts lexicographically, not topologically. Wrong ordering.
+
+### 2. Single-pass generation
+
+**Choice:** One iteration over components, writing base/variants/compounds/states fragments simultaneously.
+
+**Why:** Current code does 4 passes (`generate_layer_content_slice` per `LayerKind`), 3/4 are no-ops per component each pass. Single pass eliminates redundant iteration. Each component's fragment gets its own `String::with_capacity(512)` — at ~400 bytes average fragment, this avoids most reallocs.
+
+### 3. Serialization: flattened per-component shape
+
+**Choice:** `HashMap<String, PerComponentSheets>` in the manifest JSON, with `#[serde(skip_serializing_if = "Option::is_none")]` on each layer field.
+
+```rust
+#[derive(Serialize)]
+pub struct PerComponentSheets {
+    #[serde(skip_serializing_if = "Option::is_none")]
+    pub base: Option<String>,
+    #[serde(skip_serializing_if = "Option::is_none")]
+    pub variants: Option<String>,
+    #[serde(skip_serializing_if = "Option::is_none")]
+    pub compounds: Option<String>,
+    #[serde(skip_serializing_if = "Option::is_none")]
+    pub states: Option<String>,
+}
+```
+
+**Why not 4 separate HashMaps:** Duplicates component_id keys 4x in JSON output. With 196 components at ~40 bytes per key, that's ~23 KB wasted per redundant copy. Flattened shape matches JS-side access pattern (lookup by component_id, get all layers).
+
+### 4. CssSheets derived from fragments
+
+**Choice:** `CssSheets` fields computed by concatenating fragment vecs with pre-allocated `String::with_capacity(total_bytes)`.
+
+Cumulative byte count tracked during fragment insertion. Concatenation is a zero-realloc fold. `CssSheets` remains the primary consumption path for consumers that don't need fragments — no breaking change.
+
+### 5. Reverse adjacency for invalidation
+
+**Choice:** Build `FxHashMap<String, Vec<String>>` mapping `parent_id → [child_ids]` from the existing `provenance` map (which stores `child → [ancestors]`).
+
+On file change, invalidate all components from the changed file, then BFS through reverse adjacency to collect transitive descendants. Complexity: O(V+E) where V = invalidated components, E = extension edges. Typical tree depth: 2-5 levels.
+
+### 6. Next-plugin incremental HMR
+
+**Choice:** Adopt the vite-plugin's `buildFileEntriesFromCache` pattern — on watch update, send empty source for cache-hit files, full source only for changed files.
+
+Current next-plugin reads ALL files on every `handleWatchUpdate`. This sends redundant data across the NAPI boundary. The Rust-side content-hash cache already handles skipping unchanged files.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Manifest size increase]** → ~59 KB at showcase scale, ~295 KB at 1000 components. All in-process memory. Mitigated by `skip_serializing_if` on empty fragments. Acceptable overhead for the incremental capability gained.
+- **[Ordering sensitivity]** → CSS cascade correctness depends on fragment insertion order matching `reconciled_order`. Mitigated by using Vec (ordered) not HashMap (unordered), with explicit test asserting fragment concatenation equals existing CssSheets output.
+- **[Extension chain invalidation latency]** → Deep extension chains (5+ levels) could cascade invalidation across many files. Mitigated: typical depth is 2-3. The BFS is O(k) where k is small. Monitor via verbose timing.
+- **[Backward compatibility]** → `CssSheets` stays. `manifest.css` stays. Fragments are a new additive field. Zero breaking changes.

+## Why
+
+The subprocess elimination arc (sessions 62–67) moved system loading, transform evaluation, and global styles resolution into the Rust crate. Both plugins now call NAPI functions instead of spawning bun subprocesses. But the plugin code, comments, docs, and CSS delivery model haven't caught up. There's dead code still exported, stale subprocess references in 8 source comments and 2 CLAUDE.md files, a bug where next-plugin drops selectorAliases/selectorOrder, and the CSS generation model concatenates all component CSS into monolithic per-layer strings with no per-component addressability — blocking incremental HMR and future route-level code-splitting.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Fix next-plugin selectorAliases/selectorOrder bug** — currently passes `null, null` to `analyzeProject` instead of values from `loadSystemModule`. Selector shorthand syntax (`_hover`, `_focus`, etc.) is broken in Next.js apps.
+- **Remove dead subprocess code** — `extract/pipeline/subprocess.ts` (zero consumers), `vite-plugin/src/resolve-global-styles.ts` (zero consumers), stale re-exports from `extract/pipeline/index.ts`.
+- **Update stale comments** — 5 subprocess references in vite-plugin, 3 in next-plugin source.
+- **Update stale CLAUDE.md docs** — vite-plugin "Subprocess Model" section is fiction; extract CLAUDE.md missing `loadSystemModule` NAPI function.
+- **Per-component CSS fragments in Rust** — refactor `css_generator.rs` to retain per-component CSS for the 4 splittable layers (base, variants, compounds, states). Use `Vec<(String, String)>` with `FxHashMap<String, usize>` side index for ordered storage + O(1) lookup. New `PerComponentSheets` struct serialized in manifest. `CssSheets` derived via pre-allocated concatenation.
+- **Next-plugin incremental HMR** — adopt `buildFileEntriesFromCache` pattern (vite-plugin already has this) to avoid re-reading all files on every watch cycle.
+- **Reverse adjacency index** — build `parent → [children]` from existing `provenance` map for transitive cache invalidation on `.extend()` chain changes.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `per-component-css-fragments`: Per-component CSS fragment storage in the Rust crate, enabling addressable CSS segments for incremental updates and future route-level splitting. Covers fragment generation, container choice, serialization, and concatenation derivation.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `extract-pipeline`: Add `PerComponentSheets` to manifest output alongside existing `CssSheets`. Add reverse adjacency index for provenance.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Fragment-aware HMR splice path. Remove dead subprocess code and stale comments.
+- `next-webpack-integration`: Fix selectorAliases/selectorOrder passthrough. Adopt incremental HMR cache pattern. Remove stale comments.
+- `structured-css-sheets`: CssSheets now derived from per-component fragments rather than direct concatenation.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Rust crate** (`packages/extract/src/`): `css_generator.rs` generation refactor, `project_analyzer.rs` manifest integration + reverse adjacency, `lib.rs` serialization.
+- **Vite plugin** (`packages/vite-plugin/src/`): HMR splice logic, dead file removal, comment cleanup, CLAUDE.md rewrite.
+- **Next plugin** (`packages/next-plugin/src/`): Bug fix (selectorAliases), incremental HMR, comment cleanup.
+- **Pipeline utilities** (`packages/extract/pipeline/`): Dead export removal from `index.ts`, `subprocess.ts` deletion.
+- **NAPI boundary**: Manifest JSON gains `component_fragments` field (~59 KB overhead at showcase scale, ~295 KB at 1000 components).
+- **No breaking changes** to consumer API. `CssSheets` remains available. Fragments are additive.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Pipeline utility exports
+Extract SHALL export pipeline utility functions from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` that any bundler host can compose to complete the extraction pipeline. These are the shared bridge between the Rust NAPI core and framework-specific plugin code.
+
+#### Scenario: Utilities importable from pipeline subpath
+- **WHEN** a bundler plugin imports from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`
+- **THEN** it SHALL have access to `applyUnitFallback`, `applyPrefix`, `resolveGlobalStyles`, `resolveTokenAliases`, `resolveValue`, `assembleStylesheet`, `validateLayerOrder`, `extractSystemFilePackages`, and `camelToKebab`
+- **AND** it SHALL NOT export `execSubprocess` or `detectRuntime` (dead code removed)
+
+#### Scenario: No orchestrator wrapper
+- **WHEN** a bundler plugin needs to run the extraction pipeline
+- **THEN** it SHALL call `analyzeProject()` from `@animus-ui/extract` directly for NAPI analysis, then compose pipeline utilities for post-processing. There is no single `runExtraction()` wrapper — each host owns its own lifecycle.
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest includes pipeline timing
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` completes and returns its JSON manifest
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL include a `timing` object containing per-phase durations and metadata (file count, cache hits, total duration)
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Manifest includes per-component CSS fragments
+The `analyzeProject()` manifest SHALL include a `component_fragments` field containing per-component CSS for the 4 splittable layers (base, variants, compounds, states). The `css` and `sheets` fields SHALL continue to be present and unchanged.
+
+#### Scenario: Fragments alongside existing fields
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` returns the manifest JSON
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL contain `css` (full concatenated), `sheets` (per-layer), AND `component_fragments` (per-component per-layer)
+
+### Requirement: Manifest includes reverse provenance
+The `analyzeProject()` manifest SHALL include a `reverse_provenance` field mapping parent component_ids to their direct children for transitive cache invalidation.
+
+#### Scenario: Reverse provenance present
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` returns the manifest JSON and extension chains exist
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL contain `reverse_provenance` mapping parent component_ids to arrays of child component_ids
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Subprocess execution utilities
+**Reason**: All subprocess operations (system loading, transform evaluation, global styles resolution) now use NAPI functions. `execSubprocess` and `detectRuntime` have zero consumers.
+**Migration**: Use `loadSystemModule()` for system loading. Transforms resolved by boa_engine in Rust. Global styles resolved by Rust in `analyzeProject()`.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Webpack plugin orchestrates extraction pipeline
+The Next.js webpack plugin SHALL run the full extraction pipeline (loadSystem → analyzeProject → applyUnitFallback) once per build, sharing results across all webpack compiler instances via a module-level promise mutex. The plugin SHALL pass all config fields from `loadSystemModule()` to `analyzeProject()`, including `selectorAliasesJson` and `selectorOrderJson`.
+
+#### Scenario: Single analysis across multi-compiler
+- **WHEN** Next.js invokes the webpack config function three times (server-nodejs, server-edge, client)
+- **THEN** `analyzeProject()` SHALL execute exactly once, and all three compiler instances SHALL receive the same manifest and CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Plugin writes CSS to disk
+- **WHEN** analysis completes and CSS is resolved
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL write the combined CSS (variable declarations + global styles + component CSS) to `.animus/styles.css` in the project root
+- **AND** the file SHALL only be written if its content hash differs from the existing file
+
+#### Scenario: Selector aliases passed to analysis
+- **WHEN** `loadSystemModule()` returns `selectorAliases` and `selectorOrder`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL capture these values and pass them to `analyzeProject()` as `selectorAliasesJson` and `selectorOrderJson` (not null)
+
+### Requirement: Runtime-agnostic subprocess execution
+The subprocess model SHALL be replaced by direct NAPI calls for system loading. The `loadSystemModule()` NAPI function handles system module loading internally via OXC + rquickjs — no subprocess or external runtime detection needed for this path. No subprocess-related references SHALL remain in source comments.
+
+#### Scenario: System loading via NAPI
+- **WHEN** the next-plugin needs to load the system module during `runFullPipeline()`
+- **THEN** it SHALL call `loadSystemModule(systemPath, rootDir)` from `@animus-ui/extract` and use the returned `SystemConfig` fields directly
+
+#### Scenario: No runtime detection for system loading
+- **WHEN** `loadSystemModule()` is used for system loading
+- **THEN** no `bun` or `node` runtime detection SHALL be required — execution happens in-process via the NAPI binary
+
+#### Scenario: No subprocess references in comments
+- **WHEN** next-plugin source is searched for "subprocess"
+- **THEN** zero matches SHALL be found in source comments (JSDoc and inline)
+

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Per-component CSS fragment generation
+The Rust CSS generator SHALL retain per-component CSS fragments for the 4 splittable layers (base, variants, compounds, states) during generation. Each fragment SHALL be keyed by component_id and contain only that component's CSS contribution to the layer. Fragments SHALL be stored in topological order (matching `reconciled_order`) to preserve cascade correctness.
+
+#### Scenario: Component with base and variants produces fragments
+- **WHEN** a component `Button` has base styles and two variant props
+- **THEN** fragments SHALL contain an entry for `Button`'s component_id in `base` (with the base rule block) and in `variants` (with variant option rule blocks)
+- **AND** the `compounds` and `states` entries for `Button` SHALL be absent (not empty strings)
+
+#### Scenario: Fragment concatenation equals CssSheets
+- **WHEN** all base fragments are concatenated in insertion order
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be byte-identical to `CssSheets.base`
+- **AND** the same invariant SHALL hold for variants, compounds, and states
+
+#### Scenario: Topological ordering preserved
+- **WHEN** component `PrimaryButton` extends `Button`
+- **THEN** `Button`'s fragment SHALL appear before `PrimaryButton`'s fragment in the base vec
+- **AND** this ordering SHALL match the existing `reconciled_order` used by `generate_css_sheets_ordered()`
+
+#### Scenario: Empty layers produce no fragment entries
+- **WHEN** no components have compound styles
+- **THEN** the compounds fragment collection SHALL be empty (zero entries)
+
+### Requirement: Single-pass fragment generation
+The CSS generator SHALL produce fragments for all 4 splittable layers in a single iteration over the component list, replacing the current 4-pass `generate_layer_content_slice()` approach.
+
+#### Scenario: All layers populated in one pass
+- **WHEN** `generate_css_sheets_ordered()` is called with N components
+- **THEN** the component list SHALL be iterated exactly once, producing base, variants, compounds, and states fragments for each component in a single traversal
+
+### Requirement: Fragment lookup index
+The fragment storage SHALL maintain a side index (`FxHashMap<String, usize>`) mapping component_id to vec position for O(1) lookup. This enables HMR splice operations without scanning.
+
+#### Scenario: Lookup by component_id
+- **WHEN** a plugin needs the base CSS for component `src/Button.tsx::Button`
+- **THEN** the side index SHALL return the vec index in O(1) time
+- **AND** the fragment at that index SHALL contain the component's base CSS
+
+### Requirement: PerComponentSheets serialization in manifest
+The `UniverseManifest` SHALL include a `component_fragments` field containing a `HashMap<String, PerComponentSheets>` where `PerComponentSheets` has optional fields for each splittable layer. Empty layers SHALL be omitted from serialization via `skip_serializing_if`.
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest JSON includes fragments
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` returns the manifest JSON
+- **THEN** the JSON SHALL include a `component_fragments` object keyed by component_id, with each value containing only non-empty layer fields (`base`, `variants`, `compounds`, `states`)
+
+#### Scenario: Component with only base styles
+- **WHEN** a component has base styles but no variants, compounds, or states
+- **THEN** its `component_fragments` entry SHALL contain only `{ "base": "..." }` — no null or empty string fields
+
+### Requirement: Reverse adjacency index for extension chains
+The manifest SHALL include a `reverse_provenance` field mapping each component_id to its direct children (components that extend it). This enables transitive cache invalidation when a parent component's CSS changes.
+
+#### Scenario: Parent with two children
+- **WHEN** `PrimaryButton` and `DangerButton` both extend `Button`
+- **THEN** `reverse_provenance["Button_id"]` SHALL contain both `PrimaryButton_id` and `DangerButton_id`
+
+#### Scenario: Leaf component with no children
+- **WHEN** a component is never extended by another component
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT appear as a key in `reverse_provenance`
+
+#### Scenario: Transitive invalidation
+- **WHEN** `Button` changes and `PrimaryButton` extends `Button` and `SpecialPrimary` extends `PrimaryButton`
+- **THEN** a BFS traversal of `reverse_provenance` starting from `Button` SHALL reach both `PrimaryButton` and `SpecialPrimary`

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Rust crate returns per-layer CSS sheets
+The `UniverseManifest` returned by `analyze_project` SHALL include a `sheets` field containing individual CSS strings for each layer: `declaration`, `base`, `variants`, `states`, `system`, and `custom`. When compose families exist, the `variants` and `compounds` sheet strings SHALL include sublayer wrappers (`@layer standalone { ... }` and `@layer composed { ... }`). The `sheets` field SHALL be derived from per-component fragments via pre-allocated concatenation in topological order.
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest includes structured sheets
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project` is called with valid file entries
+- **THEN** the returned manifest JSON includes a `sheets` object with string fields: `declaration`, `base`, `variants`, `states`, `system`, `custom`
+
+#### Scenario: Sheets derived from fragments
+- **WHEN** `sheets.base` is computed
+- **THEN** it SHALL be the concatenation of all per-component base fragments in topological order, produced via a pre-allocated fold (`String::with_capacity(total_bytes)`)
+
+#### Scenario: Sheets content matches concatenated CSS
+- **WHEN** all sheet strings are concatenated in order (declaration + base + variants + states + system + custom)
+- **THEN** the result is identical to the `css` field content
+
+#### Scenario: Variants sheet includes sublayer structure
+- **WHEN** compose families exist in the project
+- **THEN** `sheets.variants` SHALL contain `@layer standalone, composed;` followed by `@layer standalone { ... }` and `@layer composed { ... }` blocks inside the `@layer variants { }` wrapper
+
+#### Scenario: Variants sheet flat without compose
+- **WHEN** no compose families exist
+- **THEN** `sheets.variants` SHALL contain variant rules directly inside `@layer variants { }` with no sublayer structure
+
+#### Scenario: Empty layers produce empty strings
+- **WHEN** no components have variant styles
+- **THEN** `sheets.variants` is an empty string
+- **AND** `sheets.declaration` still includes `variants` in the layer ordering

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Plugin factory function
+The plugin factory SHALL accept a `system` option pointing to the module that exports the SystemInstance. Additionally, it SHALL accept optional `targets` (browserslist query string or array), `minify` (boolean), `strict` (boolean), `prefix` (string), and `layers` (string array) options. External package discovery is driven by `.includes()` calls in the system file — no explicit `packages` option is needed. System loading SHALL use the `loadSystemModule()` NAPI function (Rust-internal OXC + rquickjs) — no subprocess or runtime detection needed.
+
+#### Scenario: System instance path
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL load that module via NAPI `loadSystemModule()` to obtain tokens, prop config, group registry, selector aliases, selector order, and global style blocks
+
+#### Scenario: No subprocess or runtime detection
+- **WHEN** system loading occurs at buildStart
+- **THEN** no `bun` or `node` subprocess SHALL be spawned — `loadSystemModule()` handles file reading, OXC type stripping, dependency resolution, and rquickjs evaluation internally
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Dead subprocess code removed
+The vite-plugin SHALL NOT contain any subprocess-related source files or imports. The `resolve-global-styles.ts` standalone script SHALL be deleted.
+
+#### Scenario: No subprocess files
+- **WHEN** the vite-plugin source directory is listed
+- **THEN** `resolve-global-styles.ts` SHALL NOT exist
+
+#### Scenario: No subprocess references in comments
+- **WHEN** vite-plugin source is searched for "subprocess"
+- **THEN** zero matches SHALL be found in source comments (JSDoc and inline)
+
+### Requirement: Fragment-aware HMR splice
+In dev mode, the vite-plugin SHALL use per-component CSS fragments from the manifest to enable targeted HMR updates. On file change, only the changed file's component fragments SHALL be replaced in the cached fragment set before re-concatenating affected layers.
+
+#### Scenario: Single file change updates only its fragments
+- **WHEN** a file containing 3 components is edited during dev
+- **THEN** only those 3 components' fragments SHALL be recomputed via re-analysis
+- **AND** fragments for all other components SHALL be preserved from cache
+
+#### Scenario: Extension chain invalidation
+- **WHEN** a file containing a parent component is edited
+- **THEN** fragments for all descendant components (via reverse_provenance BFS) SHALL also be invalidated and recomputed

+## Context
+
+System module loading currently works as a subprocess:
+1. Plugin constructs a CJS script string that `require()`s the system file
+2. `execSubprocess()` writes script to tmpfile, runs `bun run <tmpfile>` via `execSync`
+3. Subprocess writes serialized config to a JSON tmpfile
+4. Plugin reads the JSON tmpfile and parses it
+
+This works but the subprocess exists solely because Node can't `require()` a `.ts` file. Bun can — so we spawn bun. The actual work (import module, call .toConfig(), call .serialize()) is ~2-3ms; the remaining cost is process spawn + module cache warm-up (bimodal: cold ~30ms, warm with bun cache ~10ms).
+
+The Rust crate already has every capability needed to replace this:
+- `oxc_transformer` + `oxc_codegen` for TS → JS type-stripping (used in `transform_extractor.rs::strip_typescript()`)
+- `import_resolver.rs` patterns for resolving import specifiers to file paths
+
+The missing piece is a JS engine capable of executing full ESM modules with import/export. rquickjs (QuickJS bindings) provides exactly this with its Module API and Resolver/Loader traits. boa_engine was added recently for transform evaluation but rquickjs can handle both workloads — one engine instead of two.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Single NAPI function that any plugin calls to load a system module — no subprocess, no bundler dependency
+- Replace boa_engine with rquickjs as the single JS engine in the crate
+- Consistent system loading latency (~6-12ms, no cold/warm bimodal variance)
+- Reuse existing OXC infrastructure for type-stripping
+- Pre-resolve all dependencies in Rust; rquickjs only executes, never touches filesystem
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- General-purpose JS bundling in Rust (we only load system files and their known deps)
+- Supporting arbitrary system files with dynamic imports or non-package deps
+- Modifying the SystemInstance/theme serialization API (.toConfig(), .serialize() stay as-is)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. rquickjs replaces boa entirely
+
+**Choice:** Replace boa_engine with rquickjs 0.11. One JS engine for both module execution (system loading) and expression evaluation (transforms).
+
+**Why:** QuickJS has a bytecode-compiled register-based VM — faster than boa's interpreter for both module chains and expression snippets. boa was added recently (no legacy attachment). Having two JS engines in one crate is unnecessary complexity. rquickjs's `Context::eval()` covers the same `eval(Source::from_bytes(...))` pattern boa uses in `TransformEvaluator`.
+
+**Migration:** `TransformEvaluator` keeps its API surface (`register()`, `evaluate()`). Internal implementation changes from `boa_engine::Context` to `rquickjs::Context`. The `Context::eval()` call is equivalent.
+
+### 2. Two-map Resolver/Loader — not a flat HashMap
+
+**Choice:** The rquickjs Resolver and Loader are backed by separate data structures:
+- **Resolver**: receives `(base: &str, specifier: &str)` → returns canonical path. Handles relative specifiers contextually by resolving against the base module's directory.
+- **Loader**: receives canonical path → returns pre-processed source via `Module::declare()`.
+
+**Why:** rquickjs's `Resolver` trait receives the importing module's path plus the raw import specifier. A flat `HashMap<specifier, source>` cannot resolve `("@animus-ui/test-ds/dist/index.mjs", "@animus-ui/system")` — it needs to know the base to resolve relative imports. The Resolver handles the relational step (base + specifier → canonical path); the Loader handles the content step (path → source).
+
+**Resolver implementation:**
+```
+fn resolve(ctx, base, name) -> Result<String> {
+    if name starts with '.' or '/' → resolve relative to dirname(base), with extension probing
+    else → look up in pre-built bare_specifier_map: HashMap<String, String>
+}
+```
+
+**Loader implementation:**
+```
+fn load(ctx, canonical_path) -> Result<Module> {
+    let source = pre_loaded_sources.get(canonical_path)?;
+    Module::declare(ctx, canonical_path, source)
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Package.json resolution with fallback chain
+
+**Choice:** Resolve bare specifiers via: `exports` map (`import` condition) → `module` field → `main` field.
+
+**Why:** Not all packages have an `exports` field. `@animus-ui/test-ds` has only `module` and `main`. The Node.js resolution algorithm falls back through these fields. Our resolver must do the same.
+
+**Resolution pipeline:**
+1. Find `node_modules/<package>/package.json` by walking up from `root_dir`
+2. If `exports` exists: match the subpath (`.` for root, `./groups` for subpath), follow the `import` condition within any nested condition objects
+3. If no `exports` or no match: try `module` field
+4. If no `module`: try `main` field
+5. Resolve the resulting relative path against the package directory
+
+### 4. Recursive dependency parsing including pre-built files
+
+**Choice:** Parse ALL resolved files (including pre-built `.mjs` dist files) for their own import statements. Recursively resolve and pre-load the entire transitive dependency graph before rquickjs execution begins.
+
+**Why:** Pre-built dist files re-import from other packages. `@animus-ui/test-ds/dist/index.mjs` imports from `@animus-ui/system` and `@animus-ui/system/groups`. If we only parse the user's system file for imports but skip pre-built deps, rquickjs will fail when test-ds tries to import @animus-ui/system at runtime. The Resolver/Loader must have ALL transitive deps pre-loaded.
+
+**Pipeline:**
+1. Parse system file → extract imports → resolve → read
+2. For each resolved file: if `.ts`/`.tsx` → OXC strip types; if `.js`/`.mjs` → read as-is
+3. Parse each resolved file for ITS OWN imports → resolve → read (recursion)
+4. Deduplicate: if a canonical path is already in the source map, skip (prevents cycles and avoids re-processing `@animus-ui/system` imported by both ds.ts and test-ds)
+5. Continue until no new unresolved imports remain
+
+### 5. Full-module type stripping via existing OXC pipeline
+
+**Choice:** Scale up `strip_typescript()` to handle full module files — parse as module, transform, codegen the complete program. Simpler than the current expression-wrapping approach.
+
+### 6. NAPI function with optional export name
+
+**Choice:** `loadSystemModule(systemPath, rootDir, exportName?)` — optional parameter lets the caller specify which export to use, with duck-typing fallback.
+
+```rust
+#[napi(object)]
+pub struct SystemConfig {
+    pub prop_config: String,
+    pub group_registry: String,
+    pub scales_json: String,
+    pub variable_map_json: String,
+    pub variable_css: String,
+    pub contextual_vars_json: String,
+    pub selector_aliases: Option<String>,
+    pub selector_order: Option<String>,
+    pub global_style_blocks: Option<String>,
+}
+```
+
+**Export extraction:**
+- If `exportName` provided: use that export directly, call `.toConfig()`
+- If not provided: iterate namespace, find export with `.toConfig()` (duck-typing)
+- Theme: look for export named `tokens` or `theme` with `.serialize()`
+- GlobalStyleBlocks: iterate exports, find objects with `__brand === 'GlobalStyleBlock'`
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Build time increase]** → QuickJS C compilation adds ~30s to first `cargo build`. Cached after. Mitigated by release profile LTO already being slow.
+
+**[Binary size]** → rquickjs replaces boa. QuickJS (C) vs boa (pure Rust) — similar binary footprint. Net change minimal.
+
+**[Package.json resolution edge cases]** → Complex exports maps with nested conditions, wildcard patterns. → Mitigate: support `import` condition + `module`/`main` fallback. Fail clearly on unresolvable specifiers with diagnostic listing what was tried.
+
+**[Performance expectations]** → Projected ~6-12ms (QuickJS bytecode compile + dep resolution I/O + execution). Comparable to warm subprocess (~10ms), eliminates cold-start variance (30ms). The primary win is architectural (bundler independence, subprocess elimination, testability), not raw speed.
+
+**[System files with unexpected imports]** → Dynamic imports, side-effect-heavy deps, or packages without built dist/ will fail. → Mitigate: clear error messages with resolution trace.

+## Why
+
+System module loading (ds.ts → config) currently requires a subprocess (`execSync` + bun/node) that each plugin implements independently. This creates bundler-specific coupling, subprocess availability requirements, and bimodal latency (cold: ~30ms, warm with bun cache: ~10ms). The Rust crate already owns parsing (OXC), type-stripping (oxc_transformer), and import resolution — system loading is the last pipeline phase that escapes to a subprocess.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Replace boa_engine with rquickjs** (QuickJS Rust bindings) — single JS engine for both module execution and transform evaluation
+- **New NAPI function** `loadSystemModule(systemPath, rootDir, exportName?)` that internalizes the complete load pipeline: read → OXC type-strip → resolve deps → rquickjs execute → extract config
+- **New Rust module** `system_loader.rs` — full-module OXC type-stripping, package.json resolution with `exports` → `module` → `main` fallback, two-map rquickjs Resolver (base+specifier→path) + Loader (path→source), recursive dep parsing including pre-built .mjs files
+- **Migrate `transform_evaluator.rs`** from boa_engine to rquickjs — same API surface, faster bytecode-compiled execution
+- **Both plugins updated** to call the new NAPI function instead of `execSubprocess()`
+- **execSubprocess removed** from vite-plugin and next-plugin system loading paths (kept if used elsewhere)
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `rust-system-loader`: In-process system module loading via OXC + rquickjs. Covers: TS type-stripping for full modules, package.json exports map resolution for bare specifiers, rquickjs module execution with pre-loaded deps, SystemInstance/theme extraction from module exports.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: loadSystem() calls NAPI instead of subprocess
+- `next-webpack-integration`: system loading calls NAPI instead of subprocess
+- `extract-pipeline`: New NAPI export `loadSystemModule` added to pipeline surface
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Rust crate**: rquickjs 0.11 replaces boa_engine 0.21. New module `system_loader.rs`, new NAPI export. Build time increase from QuickJS C compilation (~30s first build, cached after).
+- **vite-plugin**: `loadSystem()` simplified — calls NAPI, removes subprocess script construction, tmpfile I/O, and `execSubprocess` import for this path.
+- **next-plugin**: Same simplification in `loadSystem()` / `runFullPipeline()`.
+- **Performance**: Consistent ~6-12ms system load (eliminates cold-start variance — subprocess is bimodal 10-30ms depending on bun cache). Primary win is architectural: removes runtime coupling, eliminates subprocess infra, makes system loading testable in Rust.
+- **Dependencies**: rquickjs 0.11 replaces boa_engine 0.21. Net: QuickJS (C library) instead of boa (pure Rust). Binary size similar. No new JS dependencies.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: NAPI loadSystemModule function
+The extraction crate SHALL expose a NAPI function `loadSystemModule(systemPath, rootDir, exportName?)` that reads a TypeScript system file, strips types, resolves dependencies, executes the module, and returns serialized system configuration. The function SHALL be synchronous from the caller's perspective.
+
+#### Scenario: Load a standard system file
+- **WHEN** `loadSystemModule("src/ds.ts", "/project/root")` is called with a valid system file that exports a SystemInstance and theme
+- **THEN** it returns a `SystemConfig` object with all config fields populated (propConfig, groupRegistry, scalesJson, variableMapJson, variableCss, contextualVarsJson)
+
+#### Scenario: Load with explicit export name
+- **WHEN** `loadSystemModule("src/ds.ts", "/project/root", "ds")` is called with an explicit export name
+- **THEN** it uses the named export `ds` directly to call `.toConfig()`, without duck-typing iteration
+
+#### Scenario: System file with no SystemInstance export
+- **WHEN** `loadSystemModule` is called with a file that has no export with a `.toConfig()` method and no `exportName` specified
+- **THEN** it returns an error describing which exports were found and that none had `.toConfig()`
+
+#### Scenario: System file with no theme export
+- **WHEN** `loadSystemModule` is called with a file that has no export with a `.serialize()` method named `tokens` or `theme`
+- **THEN** it returns an error indicating no serializable theme was found
+
+### Requirement: OXC type-stripping for full modules
+The system loader SHALL use oxc_transformer to strip TypeScript type annotations from the system file and any .ts/.tsx dependencies before execution. The type-stripped output SHALL preserve all runtime semantics (imports, exports, expressions, function bodies).
+
+#### Scenario: TypeScript system file with type annotations
+- **WHEN** the system file contains `export const tokens: ShowcaseTheme = createTheme()...` and `declare module` blocks
+- **THEN** type annotations and ambient declarations are removed, runtime code is preserved, and the module executes correctly in rquickjs
+
+#### Scenario: JavaScript dependency file
+- **WHEN** a resolved dependency is a `.js` or `.mjs` file (built dist artifact)
+- **THEN** it is loaded as-is without OXC transformation
+
+### Requirement: Rust-side dependency resolution
+The system loader SHALL resolve all import specifiers in Rust before passing source to rquickjs. The rquickjs Resolver/Loader SHALL use pre-built HashMaps with no filesystem access from the JS engine.
+
+#### Scenario: Bare specifier with exports map
+- **WHEN** the system file contains `import { createSystem } from '@animus-ui/system'` and the package has an `exports` field
+- **THEN** Rust reads the package's `package.json`, follows the `exports` map's `import` condition (supporting nested condition objects), reads the resolved dist file, and provides it to rquickjs as a pre-loaded module
+
+#### Scenario: Subpath export resolution
+- **WHEN** the system file contains `import { space } from '@animus-ui/system/groups'`
+- **THEN** Rust follows the `exports["./groups"]` entry in `package.json` to resolve the subpath dist file
+
+#### Scenario: Package without exports field (module/main fallback)
+- **WHEN** the system file imports from a package whose `package.json` has no `exports` field but has `module` and/or `main`
+- **THEN** Rust falls back to the `module` field first, then `main`, to resolve the entry point
+
+#### Scenario: Relative import resolution
+- **WHEN** a dependency file contains `import { foo } from './utils'`
+- **THEN** Rust resolves the relative path against the importing file's directory, applying `.ts`/`.js`/`/index.ts`/`/index.js` extension resolution
+
+#### Scenario: Transitive dependency resolution
+- **WHEN** the system file imports package A which imports package B
+- **THEN** Rust recursively resolves and pre-loads all transitive dependencies before rquickjs execution begins
+
+### Requirement: rquickjs module execution
+The system loader SHALL execute the type-stripped system module in rquickjs with all dependencies pre-loaded. It SHALL traverse the module's exports to find the SystemInstance (via `.toConfig()`) and theme (via `.serialize()`).
+
+#### Scenario: Execute system with createTheme + createSystem chains
+- **WHEN** the system file calls `createTheme().addColors(...).addColorModes(...).addScale(...).build()` and `createSystem().addGroup(...).build()`
+- **THEN** rquickjs executes all chained method calls and the resulting objects are accessible from Rust
+
+#### Scenario: Extract global style blocks
+- **WHEN** the system file exports objects with `__brand === 'GlobalStyleBlock'`
+- **THEN** the loader identifies these exports and includes their `.styles` data in the returned config
+
+### Requirement: SystemConfig return type
+The NAPI function SHALL return a structured `SystemConfig` object (not raw JSON strings) with the following fields: `prop_config`, `group_registry`, `scales_json`, `variable_map_json`, `variable_css`, `contextual_vars_json`, `selector_aliases` (optional), `selector_order` (optional), `global_style_blocks` (optional).
+
+#### Scenario: Complete config extraction
+- **WHEN** the system file has a SystemInstance, theme with serialize(), selector aliases, and global styles
+- **THEN** all fields of SystemConfig are populated with the serialized values from `.toConfig()` and `.serialize()`
+
+#### Scenario: Optional fields absent
+- **WHEN** the system file has no selector aliases and no global style blocks
+- **THEN** `selector_aliases`, `selector_order`, and `global_style_blocks` are `None`/null

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: CSS-only HMR in dev mode
+HMR geological reset detection SHALL check the system file (single file) instead of separate config and theme files.
+
+#### Scenario: System file change triggers geological reset
+- **WHEN** the system definition file (the `system` option path) changes during dev
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL trigger a full geological reset: reload the system via `loadSystemModule()` NAPI call, rebuild all caches
+
+#### Scenario: Component file change uses cached system
+- **WHEN** a non-system file changes during dev
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL use the cached system config (tokens, propConfig, groupRegistry, transforms) — no system reload
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Global styles resolution via standalone subprocess
+**Reason**: Global styles are now resolved Rust-side by the theme_resolver in analyzeProject(). The standalone subprocess was already eliminated in a prior change. Removing the spec to match reality.
+**Migration**: No action needed — already removed from implementation.

+# Tasks: rust-system-loader
+
+## Phase 1: Replace boa with rquickjs
+
+- [x] Replace `boa_engine = "0.21"` with `rquickjs = { version = "0.11", features = ["bindgen", "loader"] }` in `packages/extract/Cargo.toml`
+- [x] Rewrite `transform_evaluator.rs` — same API (`register()`, `evaluate()`), backed by `rquickjs::Context` instead of `boa_engine::Context`. Use `Context::with(|ctx| ctx.eval(...))` for expression evaluation.
+- [x] Verify existing transform tests pass: `register_and_eval_simple`, `register_fails_on_invalid_js`, `eval_with_string_value`, `eval_size_transform`
+- [x] Remove all `boa_engine` imports from the crate
+
+## Phase 2: Full-module OXC type stripping
+
+- [x] Add `pub fn strip_typescript_module(source: &str, file_path: &str) -> Result<String, String>` to `system_loader.rs` — parse as full module (not expression-wrapped), run `oxc_transformer::Transformer`, codegen complete program
+- [x] Unit test: strip a TS module with `import`, `export const`, `declare module`, type annotations → verify runtime semantics preserved, `declare module` blocks removed, exports intact
+
+## Phase 3: Package.json dependency resolution
+
+- [x] Implement `resolve_bare_specifier(specifier, root_dir) -> Result<String>` — find `node_modules/<pkg>/package.json`, follow resolution chain: `exports` map (subpath + `import` condition with nested object support) → `module` field → `main` field
+- [x] Implement extension probing for relative imports: try `.ts`, `.tsx`, `.js`, `.mjs`, `/index.ts`, `/index.js`
+- [x] Implement `resolve_all_deps(system_path, root_dir) -> Result<(HashMap<String, String>, HashMap<String, String>)>` — returns (specifier_map for Resolver, source_map for Loader). Recursively parses ALL resolved files (including pre-built .mjs) for their own imports, deduplicates by canonical path.
+- [x] Unit test: resolve `@animus-ui/system` → correct dist path (has `exports` field)
+- [x] Unit test: resolve `@animus-ui/system/groups` → correct subpath dist path
+- [x] Unit test: resolve `@animus-ui/test-ds` → correct dist path (no `exports`, falls back to `module`/`main`)
+- [x] Unit test: resolve with nested condition objects in exports (e.g. `{ "import": "...", "default": "..." }`)
+- [x] Unit test: transitive dep — test-ds dist imports @animus-ui/system → both appear in source_map
+
+## Phase 4: Bundled eval execution (replaced Module API approach)
+
+- [x] Implement `rewrite_module_for_bundle()` — OXC parse, span-based import→`__require()`/export→`__exports` rewriting
+- [x] Implement `collect_declaration_export_names()` / `collect_binding_names()` — handle `export const`, destructuring patterns
+- [x] Implement `topological_sort()` — Kahn's algorithm on dependency graph, deps execute before dependents
+- [x] Implement `build_bundle()` — stub modules + topo-sorted IIFEs + `__modules`/`__require` registry
+- [x] Implement `execute_bundle()` — `ctx.eval()` + extract from `__modules` registry via `extract_system_config`
+- [x] Implement export extraction: find SystemInstance (export with `.toConfig()`, or by `exportName` param), theme (`tokens`/`theme` with `.serialize()`), GlobalStyleBlock exports (`__brand === 'GlobalStyleBlock'`)
+- [x] Wire complete pipeline: `load_system_module(system_path, root_dir, export_name?) -> SystemConfig` — read → strip → resolve deps → bundle → eval → extract
+- [x] Integration test: load showcase ds.ts → verify SystemConfig has non-empty propConfig, scalesJson, variableCss
+
+## Phase 5: NAPI export
+
+- [x] Define `NapiSystemConfig` struct with `#[napi(object)]`
+- [x] Add `#[napi] pub fn load_system_module(system_path: String, root_dir: String, export_name: Option<String>) -> napi::Result<NapiSystemConfig>` to `lib.rs`
+- [x] Build: `napi build --platform` succeeds
+- [x] Canary test: call `loadSystemModule()` from JS with showcase ds.ts → verify returned object shape matches (9066b propConfig, 10416b scalesJson, 17873b variableCss)
+
+## Phase 6: Plugin integration — vite-plugin
+
+- [x] Update `loadSystem()`: replace subprocess with `const { loadSystemModule } = require('@animus-ui/extract'); const config = loadSystemModule(resolvedSystemPath, rootDir);`
+- [x] Map SystemConfig fields: `configJson = config.propConfig`, `themeJson = config.scalesJson`, `variableMapJson = config.variableMapJson`, `variableCss = config.variableCss`, `contextualVarsJson = config.contextualVarsJson`, `selectorAliasesJson = config.selectorAliases`, `selectorOrderJson = config.selectorOrder`, `globalStyleBlocksJson = config.globalStyleBlocks`
+- [x] Remove `execSubprocess` import from system loading path (also removed `unlinkSync`, `tmpdir`)
+- [x] Verify: `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1 bun run --filter './packages/showcase' build` — 9ms system-load, 194/200 extracted, 143401 bytes CSS, build in 517ms
+
+## Phase 7: Plugin integration — next-plugin
+
+- [x] Update system loading in next-plugin: replace subprocess with `loadSystemModule()` call
+- [x] Map SystemConfig fields to existing plugin variables (with prefix support preserved)
+- [x] Remove `execSubprocess`, `unlinkSync`, `tmpdir` imports
+- [x] Verify next-plugin build succeeds
+
+## Phase 8: Verification
+
+- [x] `bun run verify` — 455 tests pass, 4 pre-existing biome lint warnings (not regressions)
+- [x] `bun run verify:showcase` — showcase builds: 194/200 components, 143401 bytes CSS
+- [x] Timing: `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1` shows system-load at 9ms (release build avg: 9.61ms)
+- [x] No subprocess spawned for system loading (grep for execSubprocess: zero results in both plugins)
+- [x] `bun run test:canary` — 192 canary tests pass
+- [x] `cargo test` — 245 Rust tests pass (including load_showcase_ds integration test)

+## Context
+
+The extraction pipeline in `project_analyzer.rs` executes 7 distinct phases with Phase 5 containing 5 sub-phases. Currently, the only timing visibility is wall-clock `performance.now()` in the vite-plugin wrapping the entire `analyzeProject()` NAPI call. There is no way to determine which phase consumes time, making optimization decisions speculative.
+
+The vite-plugin already has a `verbose` config option and `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1` env var gating `[animus]`-prefixed log output with 6 `performance.now()` measurement points. The next-plugin has `verbose` but no timing.
+
+Existing phase boundaries in `project_analyzer.rs`:
+- Phase 1 (lines 307–383): Parse + walk chains, cache hit/miss
+- Phase 2 (lines 399–430): Import resolution + static value maps
+- Phase 3 (lines 441–487): Extension provenance resolution
+- Phase 4 (lines 490–530): Topological sort
+- Phase 5a (line 532): Chain evaluation
+- Phase 5b (line 788): JSX scanning
+- Phase 5c (line 1192): System prop aggregation
+- Phase 5d (line 1240): Usage ledger construction
+- Phase 5e (line 1298): Reconciliation
+- Phase 6 (lines 1325–1370): Replacements + CSS generation
+- Phase 7 (line 1449+): Manifest build + serialization
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Per-phase timing in Rust crate, returned as structured data across NAPI boundary
+- Standardized phase names shared between Rust struct fields and JS display
+- Verbose-mode waterfall display in both vite-plugin and next-plugin
+- File count and cache-hit stats alongside timing (context for the numbers)
+- Always-on collection (Instant::now is ~25ns, negligible overhead)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Per-file timing breakdown (useful but separate concern — adds complexity to the hot loop)
+- Flamegraph or tracing integration (future work, requires `tracing` crate)
+- Changing any extraction behavior — pure observability addition
+- Timing the subprocess/system-load step (already measured in vite-plugin JS)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Timing struct lives in `project_analyzer.rs`, serialized into `UniverseManifest`
+
+`PipelineTiming` is a `#[derive(Serialize)]` struct with one `u64` field per phase (milliseconds). It is added as a field on `UniverseManifest`, which already serializes to JSON across the NAPI boundary. The JS side reads `manifest.timing` — no new NAPI function needed.
+
+**Why not a separate NAPI return value?** `analyze_project` returns a JSON string. Adding a field to the existing JSON is zero-cost on the interface. A separate return would require changing the NAPI signature.
+
+**Why u64 milliseconds, not f64 or microseconds?** Milliseconds are the natural unit for build tooling (matches `performance.now()` on the JS side). u64 avoids floating-point display noise. Sub-millisecond phases round to 0, which is correct — they're not worth optimizing.
+
+### 2. Phase names use snake_case in Rust, camelCase in JS display
+
+Rust struct fields: `parse_and_walk`, `import_resolution`, `extension_provenance`, `topological_sort`, `chain_evaluation`, `jsx_scanning`, `system_prop_aggregation`, `usage_ledger`, `reconciliation`, `css_generation`, `manifest_serialization`.
+
+JS display maps these to human-readable labels. serde renames to camelCase automatically with `#[serde(rename_all = "camelCase")]`.
+
+### 3. Metadata alongside timing: file count + cache stats
+
+`PipelineTiming` also carries `file_count: usize` and `cache_hits: usize`. These contextualize the numbers — 50ms for 10 files is different from 50ms for 500 files. Available from Phase 1's cache check logic.
+
+### 4. Vite-plugin waterfall format
+
+Verbose output after extraction replaces the single-line summary with a phase waterfall:
+
+```
+[animus] Extracted 42/48 components (127ms)
+         parse+walk     38ms  (245 files, 12 cached)
+         imports        11ms
+         provenance      2ms
+         topo-sort       0ms
+         chains         31ms
+         jsx-scan       28ms
+         sys-props       4ms
+         usage           3ms
+         reconcile       6ms
+         css-gen         3ms
+         serialize       1ms
+```
+
+The first line remains unchanged for backward compatibility with any tooling parsing verbose output. The waterfall follows as indented detail lines.
+
+### 5. Next-plugin gets identical waterfall
+
+Same format, same field reads. The next-plugin's `loadSystem()` path already has the manifest — just needs the display code.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Timing overhead in hot path]** → `Instant::now()` is 25ns on modern hardware. 11 measurement points = ~275ns per `analyze_project` call. Negligible against the ~100ms+ typical extraction time.
+- **[Manifest JSON size increase]** → ~200 bytes for the timing object. Negligible against the typical ~50KB+ manifest.
+- **[Phase boundary drift]** → If phases are refactored, timing insertion points need updating. Mitigated by placing timing at clearly-labeled section comments.

+## Why
+
+The extraction pipeline has zero internal timing visibility. The vite-plugin measures wall-clock time around the entire `analyzeProject()` call (~1 number), but we can't see where time is spent across the 7 phases and 5 sub-phases inside the Rust crate. Every optimization proposal (parse consolidation, source maps, subprocess elimination) is speculation without per-phase baselines. The next-plugin has a `verbose` flag but no timing at all.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Add `std::time::Instant` instrumentation to each phase boundary in `project_analyzer.rs`
+- Define a `PipelineTiming` struct that collects per-phase durations in milliseconds
+- Serialize timing data into the `UniverseManifest` JSON (new `timing` field)
+- Vite-plugin reads `manifest.timing` and displays phase-by-phase breakdown in verbose mode
+- Next-plugin gets equivalent timing display using the same manifest timing data
+- Per-file `extract()` function gets optional timing in its `ExtractionResult`
+- Standardized phase names shared across Rust struct fields and JS display
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `pipeline-timing`: Structured per-phase timing instrumentation across Rust extraction pipeline and JS plugin display
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `extract-pipeline`: UniverseManifest gains a `timing` field; ExtractionResult gains optional timing
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Verbose output expands from single total to per-phase waterfall
+- `next-webpack-integration`: Verbose output gains timing display (currently has none)
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Rust crate**: `project_analyzer.rs` (phase boundaries), `lib.rs` (ExtractionResult, UniverseManifest structs)
+- **Vite plugin**: `index.ts` verbose logging section
+- **Next plugin**: `plugin.ts` verbose logging
+- **NAPI boundary**: UniverseManifest JSON shape gains `timing` object (additive, non-breaking)
+- **TypeScript types**: `index.d.ts` auto-generated from Rust `#[napi(object)]` — gains timing fields
+- **Dependencies**: None new (`std::time` is stdlib)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Per-phase timing collection in project analyzer
+The project analyzer SHALL collect wall-clock duration for each pipeline phase using `std::time::Instant`. Timing SHALL be collected unconditionally (not gated by a flag) because the overhead is negligible (~25ns per measurement point).
+
+#### Scenario: All phases timed
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` executes a full extraction
+- **THEN** the returned manifest SHALL contain a `timing` object with millisecond durations for: `parseAndWalk`, `importResolution`, `extensionProvenance`, `topologicalSort`, `chainEvaluation`, `jsxScanning`, `systemPropAggregation`, `usageLedger`, `reconciliation`, `cssGeneration`, `manifestSerialization`
+
+#### Scenario: Sub-millisecond phases report zero
+- **WHEN** a phase completes in under 1 millisecond
+- **THEN** its timing value SHALL be `0` (u64 truncation, not rounding)
+
+#### Scenario: Cache-hit files skip parse timing
+- **WHEN** Phase 1 encounters cached files that skip parsing
+- **THEN** the `parseAndWalk` duration SHALL reflect only the time spent on cache-miss files (the actual parse work), and `cacheHits` SHALL report the count of skipped files
+
+### Requirement: Pipeline metadata alongside timing
+The timing object SHALL include contextual metadata that gives meaning to the phase durations.
+
+#### Scenario: File count reported
+- **WHEN** extraction completes
+- **THEN** the timing object SHALL include `fileCount` (total files processed) and `cacheHits` (files served from cache)
+
+#### Scenario: Total duration reported
+- **WHEN** extraction completes
+- **THEN** the timing object SHALL include `totalMs` representing the wall-clock duration of the entire `analyze_project` call, measured independently of the per-phase sum
+
+### Requirement: Timing struct serialized in UniverseManifest
+The `PipelineTiming` struct SHALL serialize as a nested object within the `UniverseManifest` JSON under the key `timing`. The struct SHALL use `#[serde(rename_all = "camelCase")]` for consistent JS-side field names.
+
+#### Scenario: Timing present in manifest JSON
+- **WHEN** the vite-plugin or next-plugin parses the `analyzeProject()` return value
+- **THEN** `manifest.timing` SHALL be an object with all phase duration fields and metadata fields
+
+#### Scenario: Timing does not affect existing manifest consumers
+- **WHEN** existing code reads `manifest.components`, `manifest.css`, or any other field
+- **THEN** behavior SHALL be unchanged — the `timing` field is additive

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Verbose timing waterfall display
+When verbose mode is enabled, the vite-plugin SHALL display a per-phase timing waterfall after extraction completes. The waterfall SHALL follow the existing single-line extraction summary.
+
+#### Scenario: Verbose buildStart shows phase breakdown
+- **WHEN** `verbose: true` or `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1` is set and `buildStart` completes extraction
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL log the existing summary line (`Extracted N/M components (Xms)`) followed by indented per-phase lines showing phase name, duration in ms, and file stats for the parse phase
+
+#### Scenario: Verbose HMR shows phase breakdown
+- **WHEN** verbose mode is enabled and an HMR update triggers re-analysis
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL log the per-phase waterfall after the HMR timing summary
+
+#### Scenario: Non-verbose mode unchanged
+- **WHEN** `verbose` is false and `ANIMUS_DEBUG` is not set
+- **THEN** no timing waterfall SHALL be displayed — existing behavior preserved

+## Context
+
+The Next.js plugin writes CSS to disk via `writeFileSync` inside `runFullPipeline()` and `runIncrementalPipeline()`. In multi-compiler dev mode, non-executing instances have empty state and overwrite the good file. The Vite plugin avoids this with virtual modules. Webpack needs a different mechanism.
+
+StyleX (Meta) demonstrates the proven webpack pattern: module-scope shared state + `processAssets` hook. CSS is injected into webpack's asset pipeline in-memory. The disk file is a resolution stub. All compilers read the same module-scope variable, making injection naturally idempotent.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Eliminate the multi-compiler CSS overwrite bug
+- Deliver CSS via `processAssets` (in-memory) instead of disk writes
+- Make multi-compiler handling naturally idempotent (no ownership/gating needed for correctness)
+- Retain HMR functionality for CSS changes in dev mode
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changing the Vite plugin (already uses virtual modules)
+- Per-module CSS delivery (would require restructuring the extraction pipeline)
+- Changing the NAPI/Rust extraction pipeline
+- Changing the production `next build` output format
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Module-scope shared CSS via singleton
+
+**Choice:** Add `sharedCss` getter/setter to `singleton.ts` using a module-scope variable (or `globalThis` for ESM/CJS safety, since singleton.ts already uses `globalThis`). All compiler instances read the same CSS.
+
+**Why:** Module-scope sharing is the simplest mechanism (StyleX uses it). Our singleton.ts already uses `globalThis` to cross the ESM/CJS boundary — extend the same pattern for CSS. No new mechanism needed.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Per-instance CSS with ownership gating. Rejected — requires tracking which compiler "owns" writes, adds complexity for the same result.
+
+### Decision 2: `processAssets` hook replaces CSS asset content
+
+**Choice:** In `apply()`, register `compilation.hooks.processAssets.tap()` at `PROCESS_ASSETS_STAGE_ADDITIONAL` (or `PRE_PROCESS`). The hook reads `sharedCss` from the singleton and replaces the `.animus/styles.css` asset content.
+
+**Why:** `processAssets` fires after module resolution but before emission. The disk stub satisfies module resolution; `processAssets` injects the real content. Every compiler independently does this — all inject the same CSS from the shared variable. Naturally idempotent, zero coordination needed.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Pitch loader that serves CSS from memory. Rejected — would bypass Next.js's CSS processing pipeline (postcss, etc.). `processAssets` operates within the pipeline.
+
+### Decision 3: Disk writes for HMR trigger only
+
+**Choice:** After the extraction pipeline updates `sharedCss`, write the CSS to disk to trigger webpack's file watcher. This causes a recompilation where `processAssets` picks up the new content. The disk content doesn't need to be perfect — `processAssets` overwrites it in-memory.
+
+**Why:** webpack's HMR is driven by file system changes. Without a disk write, webpack doesn't know CSS changed. StyleX uses synthetic watcher events (`watcher.emit('change')`), but that requires reaching into webpack internals. A disk write is simpler and uses the existing mechanism. The race is now harmless because `processAssets` always replaces with the correct content.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Synthetic watcher events (StyleX pattern). Viable but requires accessing `compiler.watchFileSystem.watcher.fileWatchers` — deep internal API that could break across webpack versions. Disk write is more stable.
+
+### Decision 4: Edge compiler early exit
+
+**Choice:** Check `compiler.options?.name === 'edge-server'` in `apply()` and skip hook registration entirely.
+
+**Why:** Edge runtime has no CSS dependencies. Skipping it avoids unnecessary processAssets hooks and eliminates a redundant extraction trigger.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk: processAssets timing vs module resolution]** → The `.animus/styles.css` stub must exist on disk BEFORE webpack resolves modules. `with-animus.ts` creates it during the `webpack()` callback, which runs before compilation starts. Safe.
+
+**[Risk: HMR disk write still races]** → Multiple instances could write to disk after extraction. This is now harmless — the disk content is only a trigger signal. `processAssets` replaces it with the correct content regardless of what's on disk. The race becomes a cosmetic issue (multiple writes of the same content), not a correctness issue.
+
+**[Risk: processAssets stage ordering]** → Other plugins may also use processAssets. Using `PROCESS_ASSETS_STAGE_ADDITIONAL` (early stage) ensures our CSS is in place before other plugins process assets. If conflicts arise, the stage can be tuned.
+
+**[Risk: Production build compatibility]** → `next build` uses a single compiler with `run` hook (not `watchRun`). `processAssets` still fires during production compilation. The same mechanism works for both dev and prod — no special-casing needed.

+## Why
+
+Next.js 15 dev mode creates 3 webpack compilers (server, client, edge-server), each invoking the `webpack()` callback independently. This produces 3 separate `AnimusWebpackPlugin` instances. The globalThis singleton correctly deduplicates pipeline *execution* — only one instance runs `runFullPipeline()`. But instances 2/3 never hydrate system state (`variableCss`, `globalCss`, `configJson`, `fileCache` are all empty). When the initial CSS write triggers a webpack recompilation via the file watcher, those instances' `handleWatchUpdate()` sees an empty `fileCache`, treats every file as "new", and runs `runIncrementalPipeline()` with empty system data. `assembleStylesheet` produces 94 bytes (just the `@layer` declaration), overwriting the valid 11401-byte file.
+
+The root cause is architectural: writing CSS directly to disk from per-compiler plugin instances creates a multi-writer race. StyleX (Meta) solves this with `processAssets` — CSS is injected into webpack's asset pipeline in-memory, never written to disk during dev. The disk file is a stub for module resolution only. `processAssets` fires per-compilation and reads from a module-scope shared variable, making it naturally idempotent across compilers.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Move CSS delivery from disk writes to webpack's `processAssets` hook — CSS is assembled in-memory and injected into the `.animus/styles.css` asset during each compilation
+- Store assembled CSS in a module-scope shared variable (all compiler instances share via Node's require cache, same pattern as StyleX)
+- `.animus/styles.css` on disk becomes a stub file for webpack's initial module resolution; `processAssets` replaces its content in-memory before webpack emits anything
+- Disk writes retained only for: (a) creating the initial stub, (b) triggering HMR recompilation via file watcher after CSS changes
+- Edge compiler (`edge-server`) skips the plugin entirely — no CSS dependencies
+- Extraction pipeline logic unchanged — only the delivery mechanism changes
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `process-assets-css-delivery`: In-memory CSS delivery via webpack's `processAssets` hook, replacing disk-write delivery. Module-scope shared state ensures all compilers inject the same CSS.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `next-webpack-integration`: CSS delivery changes from direct `writeFileSync` to `processAssets` asset replacement. Disk file becomes a resolution stub.
+- `next-dev-hmr`: HMR trigger changes from "disk write detected by file watcher" to "targeted disk write after CSS change to trigger recompilation, with processAssets ensuring correct content."
+
+## Impact
+
+- **packages/next-plugin/src/singleton.ts** — Add module-scope shared CSS storage (`sharedCss` variable + getter/setter)
+- **packages/next-plugin/src/plugin.ts** — Register `processAssets` hook in `apply()`, change `runFullPipeline`/`runIncrementalPipeline` to store CSS in shared variable instead of (only) writing to disk, edge compiler early-exit
+- **packages/next-plugin/src/with-animus.ts** — Ensure stub `.animus/styles.css` exists at webpack config time (before compilation starts)
+- **No NAPI or Rust changes** — fix is entirely in the JS plugin layer
+- **No breaking changes** — consumer API unchanged

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: In-memory CSS delivery via processAssets
+The AnimusWebpackPlugin SHALL deliver CSS to webpack's asset pipeline via the `compilation.hooks.processAssets` hook, replacing the content of the `.animus/styles.css` asset with the assembled CSS from a shared module-scope variable. This replaces direct `writeFileSync` as the primary CSS delivery mechanism.
+
+#### Scenario: processAssets replaces stub content
+- **WHEN** webpack processes assets during a compilation
+- **THEN** the plugin's `processAssets` hook SHALL find the `.animus/styles.css` asset in the compilation
+- **AND** replace its content with the full assembled CSS from the shared variable
+- **AND** this SHALL happen identically for every compiler instance (server, client, edge-server)
+
+#### Scenario: Shared CSS is empty on first compilation
+- **WHEN** `processAssets` fires before the extraction pipeline has completed (shared CSS is empty)
+- **THEN** the hook SHALL skip asset replacement and leave the stub content intact
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple compilers inject same CSS
+- **WHEN** all 3 compiler instances' `processAssets` hooks fire during the same compilation cycle
+- **THEN** each SHALL inject the same CSS content from the shared variable
+- **AND** no coordination or ownership gating SHALL be required for correctness
+
+### Requirement: Module-scope shared CSS storage
+The singleton module SHALL provide a shared CSS variable accessible to all compiler instances via `globalThis`. The extraction pipeline stores assembled CSS here; `processAssets` reads from here.
+
+#### Scenario: Pipeline stores CSS in shared variable
+- **WHEN** `runFullPipeline()` or `runIncrementalPipeline()` completes CSS assembly
+- **THEN** the assembled CSS SHALL be stored in the shared variable via the singleton setter
+
+#### Scenario: Shared variable persists across compilations
+- **WHEN** a new compilation starts (watch cycle N+1)
+- **THEN** the shared CSS from the previous cycle SHALL still be available until updated by a new pipeline run
+
+### Requirement: Stub file for module resolution
+The `.animus/styles.css` file on disk SHALL serve as a resolution stub. It SHALL be created during the `webpack()` callback (before compilation starts) if it does not already exist. Its on-disk content is not authoritative — `processAssets` replaces it in-memory.
+
+#### Scenario: Stub created on first build
+- **WHEN** the `webpack()` callback runs and `.animus/styles.css` does not exist
+- **THEN** a stub file SHALL be created containing only the `@layer` declaration
+- **AND** this file SHALL be resolvable by webpack's module resolution
+
+#### Scenario: Stub already exists
+- **WHEN** the `webpack()` callback runs and `.animus/styles.css` already exists (from a previous build)
+- **THEN** the existing file SHALL be left intact — `processAssets` will replace its content in-memory
+
+### Requirement: Edge compiler early exit
+The plugin SHALL skip all hook registration for the `edge-server` webpack compiler.
+
+#### Scenario: Edge compiler detected
+- **WHEN** `apply()` is called with a compiler whose `options.name` is `'edge-server'`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT register `run`, `watchRun`, or `processAssets` hooks
+
+### Requirement: HMR trigger via disk write
+After the extraction pipeline updates the shared CSS variable, the owning instance SHALL write the CSS to disk to trigger webpack's file watcher for HMR recompilation. The disk content does not need to be authoritative — `processAssets` ensures correct content regardless.
+
+#### Scenario: CSS changes trigger recompilation
+- **WHEN** the extraction pipeline produces new CSS (different content hash)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL write the new CSS to `.animus/styles.css` on disk
+- **AND** webpack's file watcher SHALL detect the change and trigger a new compilation
+- **AND** the new compilation's `processAssets` SHALL inject the correct CSS from the shared variable

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Incremental re-analysis on file change
+In dev mode, the extraction pipeline SHALL run via the existing singleton deduplication (one instance executes, others await). After CSS is assembled, it SHALL be stored in the shared variable. Disk writes after CSS changes SHALL serve as HMR triggers. `processAssets` SHALL ensure all compilers deliver correct CSS regardless of which instance ran the pipeline.
+
+#### Scenario: Component file changed
+- **WHEN** a source file containing builder chain components is modified during dev
+- **THEN** the owning instance SHALL re-run `analyzeProject()` with updated file entries
+- **AND** store the new CSS in the shared variable
+- **AND** write to disk to trigger webpack recompilation
+- **AND** the recompilation's `processAssets` SHALL inject the updated CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Non-component file changed
+- **WHEN** a source file with no extractable components is modified during dev
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL skip re-analysis (content hash check shows no manifest-relevant change)
+
+#### Scenario: CSS content unchanged after re-analysis
+- **WHEN** re-analysis produces identical CSS (same content hash)
+- **THEN** no disk write SHALL occur and no recompilation SHALL be triggered
+
+### Requirement: Geological reset on system file change
+The plugin SHALL detect changes to the system file and trigger a full reload — cache clear, system reload, and complete re-analysis. The new CSS SHALL be stored in the shared variable and written to disk for HMR.
+
+#### Scenario: System file modified
+- **WHEN** the system file (e.g., `src/ds.ts`) is modified during dev
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL call `clearAnalysisCache()`, re-run `loadSystem()`, re-run `analyzeProject()` with fresh config, store new CSS in the shared variable, and write to disk
+
+#### Scenario: Theme token change

+- **THEN** the geological reset SHALL produce updated variable CSS, stored in the shared variable and written to disk for HMR

The plugin SHALL pass all config fields from `loadSystemModule()` to `analyzeProject()`, including `selectorAliasesJson` and `selectorOrderJson`.

+# Tasks: fix-next-dev-multi-compiler
+
+## 1. Shared CSS storage in singleton
+
+- [x] 1.1 Add `getSharedCss()` / `setSharedCss()` to `singleton.ts` using a `globalThis` key (same pattern as existing `MANIFEST_KEY`)
+- [x] 1.2 Add `getSharedSystemProps()` / `setSharedSystemProps()` for the system-props.js content (also written per-pipeline, same race risk)
+
+## 2. processAssets hook registration
+
+- [x] 2.1 Add `name?: string` to the local `Compiler` type in plugin.ts, and add `compilation` type with `hooks.processAssets.tap`, `updateAsset`, `getAsset` (minimal typing needed)
+- [x] 2.2 In `apply()`, register `compiler.hooks.compilation.tap` → inside, register `compilation.hooks.processAssets.tap` at `PROCESS_ASSETS_STAGE_ADDITIONAL` that reads `getSharedCss()` and replaces the `.animus/styles.css` asset if shared CSS is non-empty
+- [x] 2.3 In `apply()`, skip all hook registration if `compiler.options?.name === 'edge-server'`
+
+## 3. Pipeline stores CSS in shared variable
+
+- [x] 3.1 In `runFullPipeline()`, after assembling `fullCss`, call `setSharedCss(fullCss)` and `setSharedSystemProps(systemPropsContent)` — these become the authoritative source
+- [x] 3.2 In `runFullPipeline()`, retain the disk write but guard it: only write if this is the instance that ran the pipeline (the singleton promise owner). The disk write serves as HMR trigger only.
+- [x] 3.3 In `runIncrementalPipeline()`, same pattern: `setSharedCss(fullCss)`, disk write for HMR trigger only
+
+## 4. Stub file creation
+
+- [x] 4.1 In `with-animus.ts`, ensure `.animus/styles.css` exists before webpack compilation starts — write the `@layer` declaration stub if file doesn't exist. Move this BEFORE plugin instantiation so the file is resolvable during module resolution.
+
+## 5. Remove non-owner pipeline execution
+
+- [x] 5.1 In `handleWatchUpdate()`, add early return if `this.configJson === ''` (system state never loaded) — non-owning instances that somehow enter this path skip instead of running incremental pipeline with empty state
+- [x] 5.2 Keep existing singleton promise dedup for initial run — instances that await the promise don't need state hydration anymore since processAssets reads from the shared variable
+
+## 6. Verification
+
+- [x] 6.1 `next build` in next-test-app — production path produces full CSS output
+- [x] 6.2 `next dev` in next-test-app — dev mode produces full CSS, not just layer declaration

+## Context
+
+The Rust import resolver in `project_analyzer.rs` resolves imports via two paths: relative (`./foo`) and package map lookup. tsconfig path aliases (`@admin/*` → `./src/*`) fall through both, causing silent extraction failures for `.extend()` chains and cross-file component references.
+
+This is a research-first change. The scope and severity depend on whether real consumers use aliased imports between Animus component files. If they don't, documentation may suffice.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Determine whether path alias resolution is a real problem (audit blockworks)
+- If so, design a solution that resolves aliases in the Rust import resolver
+- Ensure both vite-plugin and next-plugin benefit from the fix
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Supporting arbitrary module resolution (Vite plugins, custom resolvers)
+- Supporting `paths` entries that map to `node_modules` (covered by packageMap)
+- Handling `baseUrl`-only resolution (no `paths` key) — this is rare and complex
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Option B (auto-read tsconfig.json) as primary approach
+
+**Choice:** The plugin reads `tsconfig.json`, extracts `compilerOptions.paths` + `compilerOptions.baseUrl`, and serializes them as a new `path_aliases_json` parameter to `analyzeProject()`.
+
+**Why over Option A (explicit config):** Duplicating tsconfig paths in plugin options is error-prone — they drift. Auto-reading is zero-config and always correct.
+
+**Why over Option C (dynamic Vite resolve):** NAPI boundary crossing per-resolution is expensive. The alias map is static per build — serializing it once is O(1) overhead.
+
+**Why over Option D (document limitation):** If the audit confirms this affects real consumers, documentation is insufficient — silent degradation is the worst failure mode.
+
+### Decision 2: Rust-side alias resolution as a pre-pass before package map
+
+In `project_analyzer.rs`, the `resolve_path` closure (line 443) gains a third branch:
+
+```
+1. starts_with('.') → resolve_relative_path()
+2. matches alias pattern → expand alias → resolve_relative_path()
+3. else → package map lookup
+```
+
+Alias expansion converts `@admin/components/Button` → `./src/components/Button` (relative to project root), then falls through to the existing relative resolver.
+
+### Decision 3: Audit before implementation
+
+Before writing code, audit blockworks os-admin for aliased component imports. If zero Animus component files use `@admin/*` to import other components, defer implementation and document the limitation.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] tsconfig.json may not be at project root** → Mitigation: Use `tsconfig` Vite config if set, otherwise check root. Follow TypeScript's `extends` chain if needed (most projects don't deeply nest).
+
+**[Risk] `paths` entries can have multiple targets** → e.g., `"@admin/*": ["./src/*", "./types/*"]`. Mitigation: Try each target in order, return first match (same as TypeScript's behavior).
+
+**[Risk] Performance overhead of alias matching** → At ~600 imports, checking 3-5 alias patterns per import is negligible. O(imports × patterns) where both are small.

+# Path Alias Resolution in Extraction Pipeline
+
+## Problem
+
+The Rust import resolver handles two path shapes:
+- **Relative paths** (`./foo`, `../bar`) → `resolve_relative_path()` in `import_resolver.rs`
+- **Package specifiers** (`@animus-ui/system`) → lookup in `packageMap` (populated by vite-plugin)
+
+It does NOT handle **tsconfig path aliases** like `@admin/*` → `./src/*`. These are resolved by Vite (via `tsconfigPaths()` plugin) and TypeScript, but are invisible to the Rust extraction pipeline.
+
+### Impact
+
+If a component file uses an aliased import to reference another component:
+```typescript
+// src/components/NavBar.tsx
+import { Button } from '@admin/components/Button';
+
+export const NavBar = Button.extend().styles({ ... }).asElement('nav');
+```
+
+The `.extend()` provenance chain cannot be resolved. `Button` becomes an unresolvable binding, and `NavBar` is excluded from extraction (falls through to runtime) or extracted without parent styles.
+
+### Scope Assessment Needed
+
+This may or may not be a real problem today:
+- If all Animus component files import each other with relative paths, the gap doesn't bite.
+- If consumers use aliased imports between component files (reasonable in large projects), extraction silently degrades.
+
+### Observed in
+
+Blockworks os-admin uses `@admin/*` → `./src/*` (tsconfig + vite resolve alias). Need to audit whether any Animus component imports use this alias.
+
+## Proposed Direction
+
+### Option A: Accept alias config in plugin options
+
+```typescript
+animusExtract({
+  system: './src/ds.ts',
+  pathAliases: {
+    '@admin/*': './src/*',
+  },
+})
+```
+
+The plugin passes aliases to the Rust pipeline, which resolves them before falling through to the package map.
+
+### Option B: Read tsconfig.json automatically
+
+The plugin reads `tsconfig.json` (or the file specified by `tsconfig` Vite config), extracts `compilerOptions.paths`, and passes them to the Rust resolver. Zero-config for projects already using tsconfig paths.
+
+### Option C: Use Vite's resolve at analysis time
+
+Instead of a static `packageMap`, provide a dynamic resolution callback that calls Vite's `this.resolve()` for non-relative imports. This would handle aliases, package.json exports, and all other Vite resolution semantics. However, crossing the NAPI boundary for each resolution call adds latency.
+
+### Option D: Document the limitation
+
+If aliased imports between component files are uncommon, document that component files should use relative imports for extraction compatibility. Aliases for non-component imports (utils, hooks, types) are fine.
+
+## Research Needed
+
+- Audit blockworks os-admin: do any component files use `@admin/*` to import other Animus components?
+- Survey common Vite project structures: how prevalent are aliased imports between component files?
+- Benchmark Option C: what's the latency cost of crossing NAPI for each resolution call? At 196 components with ~3 imports each, that's ~600 NAPI calls.
+- Check if the next-plugin has the same gap (likely yes — same Rust resolver).
+
+## Key Files
+
+- `packages/extract/src/import_resolver.rs` — `resolve_bindings()`, `FileModuleInfo`
+- `packages/extract/src/project_analyzer.rs` — `resolve_path` closure (line 443), `resolve_relative_path()` (line 784)
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts` — `packageMap` construction (line 547), `analyzeProject` call (line 380)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Path alias resolution in import resolver
+The extraction pipeline SHALL resolve tsconfig path aliases when building cross-file binding maps and extension provenance chains.
+
+#### Scenario: Simple wildcard alias resolves to component
+- **WHEN** tsconfig defines `"@admin/*": ["./src/*"]` and a component file imports `import { Button } from '@admin/components/Button'`
+- **THEN** the import resolver SHALL expand the alias to `./src/components/Button` relative to project root
+- **AND** resolve it against the known file set using existing extension-probing logic (`.ts`, `.tsx`, `.js`, `.jsx`, `/index.*`)
+
+#### Scenario: Alias enables extension chain resolution
+- **WHEN** file A defines `const NavBar = Button.extend().styles({...}).asElement('nav')` where Button is imported via `@admin/components/Button`
+- **THEN** provenance resolution SHALL identify Button as NavBar's parent
+- **AND** NavBar SHALL inherit Button's base styles, variants, and states through the merge path
+
+#### Scenario: Non-matching alias falls through to package map
+- **WHEN** an import specifier does not match any tsconfig path alias (e.g., `@tanstack/react-query`)
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL fall through to the existing package map lookup
+- **AND** behavior for non-aliased imports SHALL be unchanged
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple alias targets tried in order
+- **WHEN** tsconfig defines `"@lib/*": ["./src/lib/*", "./src/shared/*"]`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL try each target path in declaration order
+- **AND** return the first match found in the known file set
+
+### Requirement: Automatic tsconfig path extraction
+The vite-plugin SHALL automatically read tsconfig path aliases without requiring explicit configuration.
+
+#### Scenario: tsconfig.json at project root
+- **WHEN** `tsconfig.json` exists at the project root with `compilerOptions.paths` defined
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL extract paths entries and serialize them for the Rust pipeline
+- **AND** `compilerOptions.baseUrl` SHALL be used as the resolution root (defaulting to project root if absent)
+
+#### Scenario: No tsconfig paths defined
+- **WHEN** `tsconfig.json` exists but has no `compilerOptions.paths`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL pass an empty alias map
+- **AND** behavior SHALL be identical to current (no aliases resolved)
+
+### Requirement: Research audit of real-world usage
+Before implementation, an audit SHALL confirm that path aliases between Animus component files exist in real consumer projects.
+
+#### Scenario: Blockworks audit
+- **WHEN** blockworks os-admin source is audited for imports between Animus component files
+- **THEN** the audit SHALL report how many component-to-component imports use `@admin/*` vs relative paths
+- **AND** the result SHALL inform whether implementation proceeds or the limitation is documented only

+# Tasks: path-alias-resolution
+
+## Research / Audit
+
+- [ ] Audit blockworks os-admin: grep for aliased imports (`@admin/`) in files that also contain `.extend()`, `.styles()`, or `asElement`/`asComponent`
+- [ ] Count component-to-component imports using aliases vs relative paths
+- [ ] Check if next-plugin consumers (if any) have the same pattern
+- [ ] Decision gate: if zero aliased component imports found, document limitation and close; otherwise proceed with implementation
+
+## Plugin: tsconfig path extraction
+
+- [ ] In vite-plugin `buildStart`, read `tsconfig.json` from project root (or Vite's `tsconfig` config)
+- [ ] Extract `compilerOptions.paths` and `compilerOptions.baseUrl`
+- [ ] Serialize as `path_aliases_json` parameter — shape: `{ baseUrl: string, paths: Record<string, string[]> }`
+- [ ] Pass to `analyzeProject()` as new optional parameter
+
+## Rust: alias resolution in project_analyzer
+
+- [ ] Add `path_aliases` parameter to `analyze()` function signature (optional, defaulting to empty)
+- [ ] Parse alias patterns: convert `@admin/*` → prefix `@admin/` + wildcard expansion logic
+- [ ] In `resolve_path` closure, add alias branch between relative and package map: if specifier matches alias prefix, expand and delegate to `resolve_relative_path`
+- [ ] Handle multiple targets per alias (try in order, first match wins)
+
+## NAPI boundary
+
+- [ ] Add `path_aliases_json` optional parameter to `analyze_project` NAPI function in `lib.rs`
+- [ ] Deserialize and pass through to `analyze()`

+- [ ] Unit test: non-matching specifier falls through to package map
+- [ ] Integration: extension chain resolves across aliased import in showcase or test fixture
+- [ ] Run `bun test` + `bun run test:canary`

+## Context
+
+The Next.js webpack plugin has two pipeline paths: `runFullPipeline()` (first boot) and `runIncrementalPipeline()` (subsequent HMR updates). Both call `analyzeProject()` which returns a manifest containing `system_prop_map` and `dynamic_props`. The full pipeline extracts these, constructs `system-props.js` content, stores it in the globalThis singleton, and writes it to disk. The incremental pipeline skips all of this — it only handles CSS and the manifest JSON.
+
+The Vite plugin has a single `runAnalysis()` function used for both initial and incremental paths, so it never has this divergence. The virtual module is always fresh.
+
+A secondary bug: the incremental pipeline's `emitterConfig` was copy-pasted incorrectly. It sets `css_module_id` to the system-props.js path and omits `system_props_module_id`, causing incorrect import paths in Rust-emitted replacement strings after incremental re-analysis.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- New system prop usages added during Next.js dev HMR resolve correctly at runtime
+- Content-hash guarded disk write prevents unnecessary JS module invalidation
+- EmitterConfig consistency between full and incremental pipeline paths
+- Follow established patterns (identical to CSS write path)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Virtual module approach for system-props in webpack (longer-term, separate change)
+- Unifying full/incremental into a single method (would require larger refactor)
+- Dynamic prop transform function serialization (not yet supported, tracked separately)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Mirror the full pipeline's system-props extraction in incremental
+
+Extract `system_prop_map` and `dynamic_props` from the manifest, construct the same 4-export module content, call `setSharedSystemProps()`, and write to disk with a content-hash guard.
+
+**Rationale**: This is the minimal correct fix. The Vite plugin does exactly this — every `runAnalysis()` call updates the stored system prop map. The code is already written in `runFullPipeline()` lines 595-629; the incremental path just needs the same block.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Extracting a shared helper method for system-props construction. Decided against — would require refactoring `runFullPipeline()` at the same time, increasing scope beyond bug fix.
+
+### 2. Content-hash guard (lastSystemPropsHash) to prevent unnecessary disk writes
+
+Add a `lastSystemPropsHash` instance field, same pattern as existing `lastCssHash`. Only write to disk when content actually changed.
+
+**Rationale**: System-props.js disk write triggers webpack's file watcher → JS module invalidation → React re-render cascade. If the system prop map didn't change (e.g., only a style value changed, not a new prop usage), writing is wasteful and causes unnecessary JS HMR churn.
+
+### 3. Fix emitterConfig to match full pipeline
+
+Set `css_module_id: '.animus/styles.css'` and add `system_props_module_id: join(animusDirPath, 'system-props.js')`.
+
+**Rationale**: Direct copy-paste bug. The Rust emitter uses these values to generate import paths in replacement strings. Wrong values produce incorrect imports that won't be properly handled by the loader's CSS import regex or webpack's module resolution.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk: HMR storm from system-props write]** → Mitigated by content-hash guard. The write only happens when the map actually changes (new prop usage detected). The re-render triggered by the JS module update does not produce new CSS changes, so the cycle terminates.
+
+**[Risk: groupRegistryJson stale in incremental]** → Not a risk. `groupRegistryJson` is set during `loadSystem()` and only changes on geological reset (system file change), which triggers a full pipeline re-run. It's safe to reuse in the incremental system-props construction.

+## Why
+
+In Next.js dev mode, adding a new system prop usage to JSX (e.g., `px={16}` where `px` wasn't previously used) generates the correct CSS utility class but the runtime never applies it. The `systemPropMap` in `.animus/system-props.js` is frozen at the initial boot state because `runIncrementalPipeline()` never rebuilds or rewrites it. A secondary copy-paste bug in the incremental pipeline's `emitterConfig` sets `css_module_id` to the system-props path instead of `styles.css` and omits `system_props_module_id` entirely, producing incorrect import paths in transformed output after incremental re-analysis.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- `runIncrementalPipeline()` extracts `system_prop_map` and `dynamic_props` from the manifest after re-analysis (same logic as `runFullPipeline()`)
+- Reconstructs and writes `system-props.js` with content-hash guard (no-write-if-unchanged) to trigger JS HMR only when the map actually changes
+- Calls `setSharedSystemProps()` so all compiler instances share the updated content
+- Fixes the `emitterConfig` in `runIncrementalPipeline()` to match `runFullPipeline()`: correct `css_module_id` and includes `system_props_module_id`
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+_None — this is a gap-fill in existing capabilities._
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `next-dev-hmr`: Add requirement that incremental re-analysis updates system-props.js alongside CSS, with content-hash guard and HMR trigger
+- `extraction-emitter-config`: Add `system_props_module_id` field requirement and require emitterConfig consistency between full and incremental pipeline paths
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Code**: `packages/next-plugin/src/plugin.ts` — `runIncrementalPipeline()` method (~15 lines added), `emitterConfig` object (2-line fix)
+- **Runtime**: New system prop usages in JSX will resolve at runtime during Next.js dev HMR (currently broken)
+- **Performance**: Additional disk write only when system-props content actually changes (content-hash guard). No impact on unchanged-file case.
+- **No breaking changes**: Additive fix, no API surface changes

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: system_props_module_id emitter config field
+The `EmitterConfig` SHALL support an optional `system_props_module_id` field specifying the module path for the system props import. When provided, the Rust emitter SHALL use this path for `import { systemPropMap } from '<system_props_module_id>'` in transformed files.
+
+#### Scenario: Next.js emitter config with system_props_module_id
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `emitter_config_json: '{"runtime_import":"@animus-ui/system/runtime","css_module_id":".animus/styles.css","system_props_module_id":"/abs/path/.animus/system-props.js"}'`
+- **THEN** transformed files with system props SHALL import from the specified `system_props_module_id` path
+
+#### Scenario: Vite emitter config without system_props_module_id
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called without `system_props_module_id` in the config
+- **THEN** the emitter SHALL fall back to the default `virtual:animus/system-props` path
+
+### Requirement: Emitter config consistency between pipeline paths
+The webpack plugin SHALL use identical `emitterConfig` values in both `runFullPipeline()` and `runIncrementalPipeline()`. All three fields (`runtime_import`, `css_module_id`, `system_props_module_id`) SHALL match between the two paths.
+
+#### Scenario: Incremental emitterConfig matches full
+- **WHEN** `runIncrementalPipeline()` constructs its `emitterConfig`
+- **THEN** `css_module_id` SHALL be `'.animus/styles.css'` (not a system-props path)
+- **AND** `system_props_module_id` SHALL be the absolute path to `.animus/system-props.js`
+- **AND** `runtime_import` SHALL be `'@animus-ui/system/runtime'`
+
+#### Scenario: Replacement strings use correct imports after incremental
+- **WHEN** a component is re-analyzed during incremental pipeline

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: System-props update during incremental re-analysis
+In dev mode, when `runIncrementalPipeline()` completes re-analysis, the plugin SHALL extract `system_prop_map` and `dynamic_props` from the manifest and reconstruct the `system-props.js` module content. The updated content SHALL be stored in the shared variable via `setSharedSystemProps()` and written to disk with a content-hash guard.
+
+#### Scenario: New system prop usage triggers system-props update
+- **WHEN** a developer adds `<Box px={16} />` where `px` was not previously used in any JSX
+- **THEN** `runIncrementalPipeline()` SHALL extract the updated `system_prop_map` containing the new `px` entry
+- **AND** write the updated `system-props.js` to disk
+- **AND** store the content in the shared variable via `setSharedSystemProps()`
+- **AND** webpack's file watcher SHALL detect the change and trigger JS module HMR
+
+#### Scenario: System-props content unchanged after re-analysis
+- **WHEN** a developer edits a component but does not introduce any new system prop usages or values
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT rewrite `system-props.js` to disk (content hash matches previous write)
+- **AND** no JS module invalidation SHALL occur for system-props
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic props updated during incremental
+- **WHEN** a component adds a new `.props()` custom dynamic prop during dev
+- **THEN** `runIncrementalPipeline()` SHALL extract the updated `dynamic_props` from the manifest
+- **AND** include the new `dynamicPropConfig` entry in the reconstructed `system-props.js`
+
+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Incremental re-analysis on file change
+In dev mode, the extraction pipeline SHALL run via the existing singleton deduplication (one instance executes, others await). After CSS is assembled, it SHALL be stored in the shared variable. After system-props content is reconstructed, it SHALL be stored in the shared variable via `setSharedSystemProps()`. Disk writes after CSS or system-props changes SHALL serve as HMR triggers. `processAssets` SHALL ensure all compilers deliver correct CSS regardless of which instance ran the pipeline.
+
+#### Scenario: Component file changed
+- **WHEN** a source file containing builder chain components is modified during dev
+- **THEN** the owning instance SHALL re-run `analyzeProject()` with updated file entries
+- **AND** store the new CSS in the shared variable
+- **AND** extract `system_prop_map` and `dynamic_props` from the manifest
+- **AND** reconstruct and store the system-props content in the shared variable
+- **AND** write CSS to disk (if changed) to trigger webpack recompilation
+- **AND** write system-props.js to disk (if changed) to trigger JS HMR
+- **AND** the recompilation's `processAssets` SHALL inject the updated CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Non-component file changed
+- **WHEN** a source file with no extractable components is modified during dev
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL skip re-analysis (content hash check shows no manifest-relevant change)
+
+#### Scenario: CSS content unchanged after re-analysis
+- **WHEN** re-analysis produces identical CSS (same content hash)
+- **THEN** no disk write SHALL occur and no recompilation SHALL be triggered

+## Context
+
+The JSX scan phase (Phase 5b in `project_analyzer.rs`) iterates all files and calls `scan_jsx_usage()` per file. The scanner receives `global_component_props` (binding → active system prop names), `component_usage_configs` (binding → variant/state info), and `global_custom_props` (binding → custom prop names). All three maps are keyed by the **definition binding** — the name used in the source file where the component is defined.
+
+The `file_modules` map (built in Phase 1) contains each file's `ImportInfo` records with `local_name` (what the consumer calls it) and `imported_name` (what the source exported). This data is available but not consulted during JSX scanning.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- JSX scanner resolves renamed imports so `<TestDsButton px={48}>` generates the same utility class as `<Button px={48}>`
+- All three prop maps (`global_component_props`, `component_usage_configs`, `global_custom_props`) handle aliases consistently
+- Zero cost for files with no renamed imports (common case)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Namespace imports (`import * as DS from '...'` → `<DS.Button>`) — already handled by `member_expr_bindings`
+- Dynamic imports / lazy components — out of scope, different resolution model
+- Refactoring the scanner to accept import context directly — would require changing the `scan_jsx_usage` signature and all callers
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Per-file augmented maps via Cow-clone on first alias
+
+For each file in the scan loop, check if any imports have `local_name != imported_name` where `imported_name` is a key in any of the three maps. If no aliases found, pass the original maps unchanged (zero cost). If aliases exist, clone the map(s) and insert alias entries.
+
+**Rationale**: Most files have zero renamed component imports. The common case pays nothing. The clone cost for files with aliases is negligible — these maps are small (typically <50 entries).
+
+**Alternative considered**: Pre-building a global alias map across all files. Rejected because different files can alias different components to the same local name (`Button as Btn` in file A, `IconButton as Btn` in file B). Per-file augmentation is correct; global augmentation risks cross-file prop leakage.
+
+### 2. Match by `imported_name` against map keys
+
+The `ImportInfo.imported_name` is the exported name from the source module. For `export const Button = ...`, this matches the definition binding exactly. This covers the standard case.
+
+For re-exports (`export { internal as Button }`), `imported_name` is `"Button"` (the public name), which is also what `comp_replacement.binding` uses — because the binding name comes from the export-facing name when resolved through the import chain.
+
+**Rationale**: Direct string match on `imported_name` works because `global_component_props` keys ultimately derive from the same export-name resolution path.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk: Prop set union on collision]** → If file A aliases ComponentX as `Foo` and `Foo` is ALSO a definition binding for a different component, the augmented map would have the union of both prop sets. This is safe — the scanner only records usages for attrs that exist in the active set AND are present on the JSX element. Worst case: a few extra utility classes generated that are never used. Not incorrect, just slightly wasteful.
+
+**[Risk: Cache invalidation]** → The per-file JSX usage cache stores results keyed by content hash. If a component's active props change (new group added), cached files with renamed imports won't be re-scanned. This is a pre-existing issue not introduced by this change — the cache already doesn't account for prop set changes. The geological reset (system file change) clears the cache, which is the correct recovery path.

+## Why
+
+The JSX scanner matches elements to extracted components by **binding name only** — `self.component_props.get(tag)` does a direct string lookup. When a consumer renames an import (`import { Button as TestDsButton }`), the JSX tag `TestDsButton` doesn't match the definition binding `Button` in `global_component_props`. System prop usages on renamed components are silently missed — no utility classes generated, no runtime resolution.
+
+This primarily surfaces with external DS packages where consumers commonly rename to avoid collision with local components of the same name, but it affects any renamed import across both Vite and Next.js.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Before the JSX scan loop in `project_analyzer.rs`, build a per-file **import alias map** using the already-available `file_modules` data (`ImportInfo.local_name` → `ImportInfo.imported_name`)
+- For each file being scanned, augment `global_component_props`, `component_usage_configs`, and `global_custom_props` with alias entries so the scanner resolves `TestDsButton` → `Button`'s active props
+- Same treatment for `member_expr_bindings` if compose family slots are re-exported under aliases
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+_None._
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `jsx-system-prop-scanner`: Add requirement that the scanner resolves import aliases before matching JSX element tags to component bindings
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Code**: `packages/extract/src/project_analyzer.rs` — JSX scan loop (Phase 5b, ~10-15 lines added before the scan call)
+- **Runtime**: External DS components with renamed imports will have system prop usages detected → utility classes generated → runtime resolution works
+- **Performance**: Per-file map augmentation is O(imports × component_props) per file — negligible given typical import counts
+- **Scope**: Rust crate only. No plugin changes. Affects both Vite and Next.js pipelines since both use the same `analyzeProject()` NAPI function

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Import alias resolution before JSX scanning
+The project analyzer SHALL resolve import aliases for each file before passing component prop maps to the JSX scanner. When a file imports a component under a different local name (`import { Button as TestDsButton }`), the scanner SHALL match `<TestDsButton>` against `Button`'s active system props, custom props, and usage configs.
+
+#### Scenario: Renamed import with system props
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Button as Btn } from './components'` and `<Btn px={8} />`, and `Button` has active group `{ space: true }`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect `{ px: 8 }` as a system prop usage — resolving `Btn` → `Button`'s active props
+
+#### Scenario: Renamed import from external package
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Button as TestDsButton } from '@my-ds/components'` and `<TestDsButton px={16} py={8} />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect `{ px: 16, py: 8 }` as system prop usages for the `Button` component
+
+#### Scenario: Renamed import with variant props
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Button as Btn } from './components'` and `<Btn variant="primary" />`, and `Button` has variant prop `variant`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect the variant usage `{ component: "Button", variant_prop: "variant", value: "primary" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Renamed import with custom props
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Card as MyCard } from './components'` and `<MyCard size="sm" />`, and `Card` has custom prop `size`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect a static custom prop usage for `Card`'s `size` prop
+
+#### Scenario: No rename — zero cost
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Button } from './components'` (no alias)
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL use the original maps without cloning or augmentation
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple renamed imports in one file
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Button as Btn, Card as MyCard } from './components'` and uses both as JSX elements with system props
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL resolve both aliases and collect system prop usages for both components
+
+#### Scenario: Alias collides with existing binding
+- **WHEN** a file aliases `import { IconButton as Button }` and `Button` is ALSO a definition binding for a different component
+- **THEN** the augmented map SHALL contain the union of both components' active props for the `Button` key — the scanner collects usages for any matching attribute names
+
+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: JSX element scanning
+The JSX scanner SHALL walk all JSX elements in a source file and match element tags against component bindings that have active groups from chain walking. For each matching element, it SHALL collect JSX attributes whose names match active group prop names. The component prop maps passed to the scanner SHALL include import alias entries so that renamed imports resolve to their original component's active props.
+
+#### Scenario: Match Box with system props
+- **WHEN** chain walking produces a binding `Box` with active groups `{ space: true, layout: true }` and the file contains `<Box p={8} mt={16} display="flex" />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect `{ p: 8, mt: 16, display: "flex" }` as system prop usages for the `Box` binding
+
+#### Scenario: No match for non-group props
+- **WHEN** chain walking produces a binding `Button` with active groups `{ space: true }` and the file contains `<Button variant="fill" p={8} />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect `{ p: 8 }` only — `variant` is not a group prop and SHALL be ignored by the scanner
+
+#### Scenario: Non-extracted component ignored
+- **WHEN** the file contains `<SomeComponent p={8} />` but `SomeComponent` is not a binding from chain walking and not an import alias for any extracted component
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL not collect any system props from that element
+
+#### Scenario: Same component used multiple times
+- **WHEN** the file contains `<Box p={8} />` and `<Box p={16} mt={8} />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect all unique (prop, value) pairs: `{ p: 8 }, { p: 16 }, { mt: 8 }`

+## Context
+
+MDX compiles prose to JSX. When inline code (backtick-delimited) contains nested escaped backticks (`\``), the MDX compiler can misparse the boundaries, treating `${expression}` as live JavaScript interpolation rather than literal text. This produces a `ReferenceError` at runtime when the referenced identifier doesn't exist.
+
+The specific instance is in `packages/showcase/src/content/architecture/theming.mdx:358`:
+```
+`Record<name, \`var(--${string})\`>`
+```
+
+Other MDX files with `${...}` patterns were audited — all other occurrences are inside JSX string attributes (`returns="..."`) or properly escaped template literal prop values (`\`...\${...}\``), which are safe. Only prose-level nested backticks trigger this bug.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Fix the runtime ReferenceError on the theming docs page
+- Use an MDX-idiomatic pattern that is unambiguous to the compiler
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Auditing/fixing all inline code across all MDX files (only one instance is affected)
+- Changing the MDX compiler configuration or adding plugins
+
+## Decisions
+
+**Use `<code>{'...'}</code>` instead of backtick inline code**
+
+When inline code content contains both backticks and `${...}` template syntax, the `<code>` JSX element with a string expression child is the only unambiguous representation. The JSX string `{'Record<name, `var(--${string})`>'}` is never parsed as a template literal.
+
+Alternatives considered:
+- `\${string}` escape in prose — already attempted (the `\`` escapes exist), doesn't resolve the backtick boundary ambiguity
+- Double-backtick markdown code (` `` ... `` `) — doesn't help because the inner `${...}` is still live in MDX's JSX compilation
+- HTML entity `&#96;` for backticks — works but less readable than the `<code>` pattern
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **Slight visual inconsistency**: `<code>` JSX elements should render identically to backtick inline code (both produce `<code>` HTML elements), but CSS targeting could theoretically differ. Risk is negligible since showcase styles target the `code` element generically.

+MDX prose containing inline code with nested backticks and `${expression}` syntax causes runtime `ReferenceError`.

+## Context
+
+The Animus monorepo currently exposes verification through three composite scripts (`verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:verify:showcase`) plus a scatter of `test:*` scripts, each of which silently assumes upstream artifacts. A developer or agent running `bun run test:canary` when the NAPI binary isn't built gets a confusing failure. Running a narrow verification set for a narrow change requires reading script bodies to understand the dependency chain. In practice, agents default to `verify:full` defensively — this inflates the inner-loop feedback cycle with unrelated build work.
+
+The sole author (Staff Engineer) has explicitly framed the gap: "Having layers that we can target and instruct to isolate is likely useful. Long runs can slow down the loop and add noise for an agent. Ideally one main verification, then isolated steps that we can try and reduce the overall noise." The ask is a **policy layer** — isolation, rediscoverability, instructability — not a reduction in command count.
+
+This change lands before two downstream topology changes (`legacy-package-archival`, `e2e-workspace-topology`) so those can adopt the tier contract rather than bolt on more monolithic scripts.
+
+Current verification-adjacent state (April 2026, `next` branch):
+- Root `package.json` scripts include `verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:showcase`, `test:canary`, `test:next`, `test:showcase`, `test:types`, `test:rust`. Each silently chains upstream work via `&&`.
+- Root `CLAUDE.md` has a one-line table documenting `verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:showcase`, `test:canary`, `rebuild`. No isolation contract, no change-type map.
+- Per-package `CLAUDE.md` files (system, extract, vite-plugin, showcase) duplicate fragments of verification guidance.
+- `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` uses `oven-sh/setup-bun@v2` at 4 sites with no version pin. The bun 1.3.12 `createRequire` regression silently affected NAPI loading; fix was working around the bug with direct-path requires. A pinned bun version is prerequisite for `verify:ci` to be a meaningful local simulation of CI.
+- Assertion scripts currently shell-based: `scripts/assert-showcase.sh`, `packages/next-test-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh`. They use grep/test against build output. They will be invoked by the new `verify:assert:*` tiers unchanged; rewrite to TS is a later concern (`integration-test-infrastructure`).
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Every verification tier is isolatable: running `verify:X` runs only X and fails loud if X's upstream artifacts are missing.
+- Verification policy is rediscoverable from a single authoritative surface (root `CLAUDE.md` Verification Tier Table).
+- Instructable change-type → verification-set map in root `CLAUDE.md` so agents select minimum viable verification for a given change.
+- Local `verify:ci` simulates CI as closely as practical (not required to be byte-identical).
+- Bun version parity between local and CI via `.tool-versions` + `bun-version-file` — eliminates the "works locally, fails in CI" class tied to bun version drift.
+- Per-package scripts remain the actual implementation; root orchestrators compose them. Developers who work inside a single package can invoke per-package scripts directly; agents following the root policy use the root orchestrators.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Rewriting existing assertion scripts (shell → TS). That work belongs to `integration-test-infrastructure`.
+- Introducing a test runner change (bun:test stays). Runner choice is unaffected.
+- Re-architecting CI job topology (`lint | test-rust | build-extract → verify → release`). Split/parallel `verify-e2e` is deferred until `e2e-workspace-topology` creates the content that would justify it.
+- Adding new capabilities beyond verification policy. No new commands for `legacy/` or `e2e/` — those capabilities' own changes add the tier rows they need.
+- Backwards compatibility for the pre-policy `verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:showcase` semantics. These are BREAKING changes (see proposal).
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Shell-based fail-loud preconditions (not JS/TS guards)
+
+Each tier script starts with a shell precondition block that exits with a clear, actionable message if upstream artifacts are missing. Example pattern:
+
+```bash
+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+set -euo pipefail
+# Preconditions
+if ! ls packages/extract/*.node >/dev/null 2>&1; then
+  echo "ERROR: NAPI binary missing. Run: bun run build:extract" >&2
+  exit 1
+fi
+```
+
+**Rationale**: parity with existing `scripts/assert-showcase.sh` and `packages/next-test-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh` — no new language/runtime introduced. Shell is the minimum-complexity choice for a precondition gate. Escalation path (upgrade to TS) is available later if preconditions grow beyond file-existence checks. The user explicitly requested "whatever's easiest for you to write... reduce noise and easily legible in terms of intent while preserving capability."
+
+**NAPI precondition — freshness check required**: `[ -f packages/extract/*.node ]` passes on stale binaries (prior-commit or wrong-platform `.node` files), which is the single most-cited failure mode in `packages/extract/CLAUDE.md`. The precondition for any NAPI-dependent tier MUST compare the `.node` mtime against the newest `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` source mtime. Example:
+
+```bash
+# Precondition: fresh NAPI binary
+if ! ls packages/extract/*.node >/dev/null 2>&1; then
+  echo "ERROR: NAPI binary missing. Run: bun run build:extract" >&2
+  exit 1
+fi
+newest_src=$(find packages/extract/src -name '*.rs' -newer packages/extract/*.node -print -quit 2>/dev/null)
+if [ -n "$newest_src" ]; then
+  echo "ERROR: NAPI binary is stale (Rust source newer than .node). Run: bun run build:extract" >&2
+  exit 1
+fi
+```
+
+**Precondition accuracy — read the actual script, not assumptions**: `verify:compile` invokes `tsc --noEmit` on per-package `src/` (no `dist/` needed). `verify:types` reads `packages/system/__tests__/tsconfig.test-d.json`, which includes `../src/**` directly (no `dist/` needed). `verify:canary` uses `require('../index.js')` — the NAPI wrapper — and does NOT need `packages/extract/dist/`. `verify:integration` DOES need `packages/extract/dist/` because it imports `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`. Preconditions must be derived from the actual tier scripts, not generic "build:ts" assumptions.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- TS script via `bun`: gives richer errors and shared utilities, but requires a small TS runner per tier — adds files and a build-dep before any preconditions fire. Rejected for now; reconsider if preconditions outgrow shell.
+- Inline checks inside `package.json` scripts: impossible to express without escape hell and loses legibility.
+- npm/bun `preverify:*` hooks: auto-run of hooks is the opposite of fail-loud. The policy is "fail if upstream missing," not "silently build upstream."
+
+### Decision 2: Colon-separated tier naming (`verify:<tier>[:<scope>]`)
+
+Naming convention: `verify:<tier>` for atomic tiers, `verify:<tier>:<scope>` when the tier has multiple scopes (e.g., `verify:unit:rust` vs `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:build:next` vs `verify:build:showcase`, `verify:assert:next` vs `verify:assert:showcase`).
+
+**Rationale**: mirrors existing patterns in the repo (`build:ts`, `build:all`, `clean:light`, `clean:full`). Alphabetical listing in `package.json` naturally groups by tier. Agents can pattern-match with trailing globs in instructions (e.g., "run all `verify:assert:*`").
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Dotted: `verify.unit.rust` — harder to pattern-match in bun filter syntax and breaks with shell glob expansion in some contexts.
+- Hyphenated: `verify-unit-rust` — loses visual grouping since root-level commands all start with `verify-` regardless of tier.
+- Nested bunfig config: over-engineered for a naming convention.
+
+### Decision 3: Single source of truth = root CLAUDE.md Verification Tier Table
+
+The root CLAUDE.md is the one place agents and humans look. Per-package CLAUDE.md files in `system/`, `extract/`, `vite-plugin/`, `showcase/` explicitly link back to the root table for verification commands — they do not re-document the same commands.
+
+**Rationale**: the user identified that per-package scripts "rarely get read" and that the rediscoverability gap is about predictable structure, not more documentation. One source prevents drift. Cross-package verification commands belong at the root because they compose across packages.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Separate `VERIFICATION.md` at root: introduces yet another file; agents already know to read `CLAUDE.md`.
+- Distributed in per-package CLAUDE.md files: guarantees drift. Rejected.
+
+### Decision 4: Change-Type Map as in-repo authoritative instruction
+
+The Change-Type Map is a table in root CLAUDE.md, maintained in tree. Canonical coverage: ~8-10 rows covering the primary edit surfaces (system, extract Rust, extract TS, vite-plugin, next-plugin, CSS cascade, token/theme, properties, openspec-only, broad refactor).
+
+**Rationale**: the map is most useful when kept close to the code. Rows that rot fast (file paths) are visible in PR reviews. Rows added too eagerly (every edge case) inflate the map past the threshold where agents scan it rather than read it end-to-end. 8-10 rows is the sweet spot — tight enough to read at a glance, broad enough to cover the actual edit surface.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- External doc (Notion / wiki): zero enforcement, guaranteed drift.
+- Pre-commit hook that picks verification based on changed files: over-engineered, prescriptive, removes agent judgment. Rejected — the user explicitly wants agents *instructed*, not controlled.
+- 30+ row exhaustive matrix: noise. Rejected.
+
+### Decision 5: `verify:ci` is a best-effort CI mirror, not byte-identical
+
+`verify:ci` reproduces CI's job set and ordering (`lint`, `test-rust`, `build-extract`, `verify` equivalent) locally. It explicitly runs `bun run build:extract` (producing the NAPI binary) before any tier that depends on it, mirroring CI's `build-extract` → `verify` dependency. It also runs `bun run build:ts` to produce `dist/` artifacts needed by tiers like `verify:integration`. Showcase build + assert is included (CI's `verify` job calls `bun run test:showcase`). Integration tier is included because CI's `bun test` step picks up `packages/_integration/__tests__` automatically.
+
+It does not download artifacts (local build produces them). It does not run release steps. It does not attempt to match the CI runner OS or matrix-target count (CI builds 3 platform binaries; local builds 1). It does not run parallel jobs — it serializes into one stream.
+
+**Rationale**: the user said "it should simulate [CI] as close as possible." Byte-identical reproduction requires containerized runners and binary-artifact round-trips — overkill for the signal we need (local reproducibility of a CI failure pattern). Best-effort mirror catches 90%+ of CI-vs-local divergence at ~5% of the engineering cost.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Docker-based `act` runner: reproduces CI exactly but adds Docker dependency and runtime. Too heavy for inner-loop.
+- `verify:full` alias for `verify:ci`: loses the "this mirrors CI" semantic. Rejected — separate names for separate meanings.
+
+### Decision 6: Bun version pin via `.tool-versions`
+
+Single file `.tool-versions` at repo root declares bun version. All 4 CI sites use `bun-version-file: .tool-versions`. Local developers using `asdf` / `mise` / `proto` / other version managers get automatic local parity (`.tool-versions` is the cross-manager convention).
+
+**Rationale**: the bun 1.3.12 `createRequire` regression was painful and version drift surfaces it unpredictably. Single file, cross-manager compatibility, zero extra tooling. `oven-sh/setup-bun@v2` natively supports `bun-version-file`.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Hardcode `bun-version: 1.3.14` (or whatever target) at each CI site: 4 places to update on upgrade, easy to drift.
+- `packageManager` field in root `package.json` with `bun@X.Y.Z`: bun respects this but `setup-bun` does not consume it via `bun-version-file`. Still needs explicit CI param.
+- `package.json` `engines.bun`: advisory-only, not enforced by `setup-bun`.
+
+### Decision 7: `verify` semantics change is BREAKING, no compatibility shim
+
+The redefinition of `verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:showcase` is a breaking change. No alias for the old behavior. CI and local devs update in lockstep with this change.
+
+**Rationale**: no external consumers — this is an internal monorepo tooling contract. Compatibility shims would fossilize the old ambiguity. Clean break is clearer than a compatibility layer.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Deprecation period with warnings: buys delayed pain, not avoided pain. Rejected.
+- Keep old names as aliases to new composites: obscures which is authoritative.
+
+### Decision 8: Per-package scripts remain as implementation, root as policy
+
+Per-package `package.json` `scripts` entries (e.g., `packages/_integration/package.json`'s `test` script) remain. Root orchestrators invoke them via `bun run --filter`. Per-package scripts are not the primary interface — the root Verification Tier Table is.
+
+**Rationale**: keeps implementation close to the code, keeps interface close to the policy. Developers working deeply in a single package can still `cd packages/X && bun run test` without going through the root.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Fail-loud preconditions surface more failures than the current silent-build pattern → Mitigation**: the new failures are the signal we want. Each fail-loud message includes the exact command to satisfy the precondition. The cost of a clear "run X first" error is less than the cost of a confused debugging session.
+
+**[Risk] Change-Type Map goes stale as packages evolve → Mitigation**: map is in tree, surfaces in PR diffs; rows covering new packages/edit-surfaces get added in the same change that introduces them. Owner rule: any change that adds a new top-level edit surface (e.g., a new publishable package) must add a Change-Type Map row.
+
+**[Risk] `verify:ci` drifts from actual CI → Mitigation**: both definitions live in the same repo; the CI workflow and `verify:ci` script can be diffed. Acceptable drift boundary: command set and order match; runner-specific artifact downloads do not.
+
+**[Risk] Agents ignore the Change-Type Map and run `verify:full` anyway → Mitigation**: per-session CLAUDE.md guidance can reference the map. This risk is inherent to any policy — the map's existence is necessary but not sufficient. Evidence of agent adoption is the signal for iteration.
+
+**[Risk] Bun version pin is too aggressive — forces upgrades the codebase isn't ready for → Mitigation**: the pin is a declaration, not a floor. Upgrading bun is an explicit, scoped change: update `.tool-versions`, verify, commit. No auto-upgrade.
+
+**[Trade-off] Shell preconditions limit error richness → Accepted**: if preconditions grow beyond file-existence checks (e.g., "NAPI binary loadable as module"), upgrade that specific precondition to TS. Until then, shell suffices.
+
+**[Trade-off] `verify:ci` is best-effort, not reproducible CI → Accepted**: full reproduction costs Docker complexity; 90% coverage at 5% cost is the right trade for inner-loop work.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+Atomic cutover, consistent with Decision 7 (BREAKING, no compat shim). Single commit:
+
+1. **Write all atomic tier scripts + composite orchestrators.** Old `verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:showcase` are redefined in-place to the new semantics in the same commit — no side-by-side coexistence.
+2. **Update CLAUDE.md** (root + per-package) and `ci.yaml` (bun pin via `.tool-versions`) in the same commit.
+3. **Remove orphaned `test:*` scripts** (`test:canary`, `test:next`, `test:showcase`, `test:types`, `test:rust`) in the same commit — do not leave deprecation aliases.
+4. **Verify locally and in CI** that every tier runs in isolation and every composite passes.
+5. **Post-merge**: update internal prompts / memory entries referencing old verify semantics.
+
+Rollback: revert the single commit; prior state restored. No persisted state to undo.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- Does `test:types` (type-contract tests via `tsconfig.test-d.json`) become `verify:types` exactly, or does it need a scope suffix (`verify:types:contract`) to leave room for future type check variants? **Leaning**: `verify:types` covers the current contract tests; add scope only when a second variant is introduced.
+- Should the Verification Tier Table live in root CLAUDE.md or in a top-level `VERIFICATION.md` that CLAUDE.md references? **Leaning**: in CLAUDE.md — agents already load it; extra file adds an indirection without benefit.
+- For `verify:ci`: does it run the `lint`, `test-rust`, `build-extract`, `verify` tier-set in CI's actual order, or does it flatten for speed? **Leaning**: preserve order — the whole point is to surface order-dependent CI failures locally.

+## Why
+
+The current verification surface is a monolithic set of composite scripts (`verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:showcase`) that expose no isolation or rediscoverability contract. Agents and humans cannot target a narrow change, cannot rediscover which tier covers what, and have no authoritative map from change-type to verification-set — so they defensively run the slowest pipeline, which adds noise and slows inner-loop dev. This change installs a verification **policy layer** with isolatable tiers, fail-loud upstream-artifact preconditions, and a single rediscoverable surface in root CLAUDE.md.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Introduce atomic verification tiers** replacing silent upstream assumptions with explicit fail-loud preconditions. Tier naming convention: `verify:<tier>[:<scope>]` (colon-separated).
+- **Atomic tiers**: `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:canary`, `verify:integration`, `verify:build:next`, `verify:build:showcase`, `verify:assert:next`, `verify:assert:showcase`. Each is isolatable; each fails loud if its upstream artifacts are missing (no silent rebuilds).
+- **Composite orchestrators**: `verify` (fast gate), `verify:full` (full pipeline), `verify:ci` (best-effort local CI simulation), `verify:next` (build:next + assert:next), `verify:showcase` (build:showcase + assert:showcase).
+- **Fail-loud precondition contract**: every tier script begins with a shell precondition that exits with a clear "upstream required: run X" message if its inputs are missing. Shell chosen for parity with existing `assert-*.sh`.
+- **Bun version pin**: add `.tool-versions` at repo root; update all 4 `oven-sh/setup-bun@v2` sites in `ci.yaml` to use `bun-version-file: .tool-versions`. Unblocks `verify:ci` as a reliable CI simulation and removes the bun 1.3.12 createRequire regression class.
+- **Single source of truth for verification docs**: root CLAUDE.md gains a **Verification Tier Table** (command · what it covers · upstream requires · fails loud when · typical runtime). Per-package CLAUDE.md files MUST NOT duplicate this table — they link back to the root.
+- **Change-Type Map in root CLAUDE.md**: 11 canonical rows (table) + sidebar note on non-verify edit surfaces. Authoritative instruction surface for agents picking minimum verification for narrow changes. The initial table:
+
+  | You changed | Run |
+  |---|---|
+  | `packages/system/src/**` | `verify:compile && verify:types && verify:unit:ts` |
+  | `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` | `verify:unit:rust && verify:canary && verify:integration` |
+  | `packages/extract/src/**/*.ts` (NAPI TS binding / pipeline) | `verify:canary && verify:integration` |
+  | `packages/vite-plugin/src/**` | `verify:compile && verify:integration && verify:showcase` |
+  | `packages/next-plugin/src/**` | `verify:compile && verify:next` |
+  | `packages/showcase/src/**` (code; MDX content excluded — see sidebar) | `verify:showcase` |
+  | `packages/properties/src/**` | `verify:compile && verify:unit:ts` |
+  | `packages/_integration/__tests__/**` | `verify:integration` |
+  | `packages/test-ds/src/**` | `verify:unit:ts && verify:next && verify:showcase` |
+  | `.github/workflows/ci.yaml`, `scripts/**`, `.tool-versions` | `verify:ci` |
+  | Broad refactor across multiple surfaces | `verify:full` |
+
+  Sidebar — **no verify tier required**: `openspec/**` (run `openspec validate` instead), MDX content under `packages/showcase/src/content/**`, root markdown (`CLAUDE.md`, `README.md`, `docs/**`).
+
+  `verify:next` and `verify:showcase` are new composite orchestrators chaining the build + assert tiers for each consumer (defined below).
+- **Per-package script policy**: per-package `package.json` scripts remain available as the actual implementation invoked by root orchestrators via `bun run --filter`. They are not the primary human/agent surface — the root table is.
+- **BREAKING**: the existing `verify`, `verify:full`, and `verify:showcase` composite scripts change semantics. `verify` becomes the fast gate (no showcase/next builds). `verify:full` gains `verify:integration` and the new build+assert tiers. `verify:showcase` is retained as an alias or removed in favor of `verify:build:showcase && verify:assert:showcase`.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `verification-tier-policy`: the tier naming convention, atomic vs composite distinction, fail-loud precondition contract, root CLAUDE.md Verification Tier Table as single source of truth, Change-Type Map as authoritative "what to run for what change", `verify:ci` CI-simulation semantics, per-package script referencing policy, and bun version pin via `.tool-versions` + `bun-version-file` CI input.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+<!-- None. Existing specs (build-verification, build-orchestration, bun-workspace) describe build behavior, not the verification policy layer this change introduces. They may be cross-referenced from the new spec but are not modified. -->
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`package.json` (root)**: `scripts` block rewritten. New atomic tier scripts added. Existing `verify` / `verify:full` / `verify:showcase` redefined. `test:next` / `test:showcase` / `test:canary` / `test:rust` / `test:types` either deprecated or aliased onto the new tier names.
+- **`.github/workflows/ci.yaml`**: 4 `setup-bun@v2` sites updated to use `bun-version-file: .tool-versions`. No job topology changes.
+- **`.tool-versions` (new file, repo root)**: declares bun version for local + CI parity.
+- **`CLAUDE.md` (root)**: Verification Tier Table + Change-Type Map sections added; scattered verify-command documentation consolidated here.
+- **Per-package `CLAUDE.md` files** (`system/`, `extract/`, `vite-plugin/`, `showcase/`): verify-command documentation stripped and replaced with a link back to root CLAUDE.md.
+- **Existing shell/TS assertion scripts** (`scripts/assert-showcase.sh`, `packages/next-test-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh`): invoked by the new `verify:assert:*` tiers. Scripts themselves unchanged in this change (full TS rewrite happens later in `integration-test-infrastructure`).
+- **Agent inner-loop**: the Change-Type Map becomes the primary instruction surface for picking minimum verification. Reduces defensive `verify:full` runs.
+- **No source code changes outside scripts and documentation.** No API surface changes to any published package.
+- **Prerequisite for**: `legacy-package-archival` and `e2e-workspace-topology` — both adopt the tier contract rather than add more monolithic scripts.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Simplified root scripts
+The root `package.json` SHALL contain scripts organized by verb:scope naming convention. The script set SHALL cover: build (granular + all), test, type-check, lint, format, clean, and verification via the tier policy. Script commands SHALL use `bun` (not yarn, npx, or nx). Verification is handled by the `verification-tier-policy` capability (atomic tiers + composite orchestrators named `verify:<tier>[:<scope>]`); the root script set MUST include both the atomic tiers and the composite orchestrators defined there.
+
+#### Scenario: Root script inventory
+- **WHEN** examining root `package.json` scripts
+- **THEN** each script uses `bun run`, `bun test`, `tsc`, or `biome` — no references to yarn, npx, nx, lerna, or jest
+- **AND** build scripts include: `build`, `build:extract`, `build:ts`, `build:all`, `build:showcase`
+- **AND** the raw test script `test` exists (delegates to `bun test` with no path args)
+- **AND** utility scripts include: `clean`, `clean:light`, `clean:full`, `rebuild`, `compile`, `lint`, `format`, `check`, `check:fix`
+- **AND** verification atomic-tier scripts include: `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:canary`, `verify:integration`, `verify:build:next`, `verify:build:showcase`, `verify:assert:next`, `verify:assert:showcase`
+- **AND** verification composite scripts include: `verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:ci`, `verify:next`, `verify:showcase`
+- **AND** orphaned pre-policy scripts `test:canary`, `test:next`, `test:showcase`, `test:types`, `test:rust` do NOT exist (removed in atomic cutover per `verification-tier-policy`)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Tier Naming Convention
+
+The repository's verification commands SHALL follow a colon-separated naming convention of the form `verify:<tier>[:<scope>]`, where `<tier>` names the verification stage (e.g., `lint`, `compile`, `types`, `unit`, `canary`, `integration`, `build`, `assert`) and `<scope>` optionally disambiguates multi-scope tiers (e.g., `rust`, `ts`, `next`, `showcase`).
+
+Composite orchestrators SHALL use bare names without a scope (`verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:ci`, `verify:next`, `verify:showcase`) and MUST compose atomic tiers in dependency order.
+
+#### Scenario: Atomic tier invocation
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify:unit:rust`
+- **THEN** only the Rust unit tests execute; no TS work runs
+- **AND** the script exits with a non-zero status if any required upstream artifact is absent
+
+#### Scenario: Composite orchestrator invocation
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify`
+- **THEN** the fast-gate atomic tiers execute in dependency order (`verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:canary`)
+- **AND** execution stops at the first failing tier with the failing tier's name visible in output
+
+#### Scenario: Glob-targeted tier family
+
+- **WHEN** an agent is instructed to "run all `verify:assert:*` tiers"
+- **THEN** the naming convention enables enumerating `verify:assert:next` and `verify:assert:showcase` via `package.json` script listing without ambiguity
+
+### Requirement: Atomic Tier Isolation
+
+Every atomic tier SHALL execute its single concern in isolation. An atomic tier MUST NOT silently trigger upstream builds. An atomic tier MUST begin with a shell precondition block that exits with a non-zero status and a human-readable instruction identifying the missing upstream artifact and the exact command to produce it.
+
+The atomic tiers defined by this policy are: `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:canary`, `verify:integration`, `verify:build:next`, `verify:build:showcase`, `verify:assert:next`, `verify:assert:showcase`.
+
+Atomic tier preconditions SHALL be derived from the actual script each tier invokes (what the tier reads at runtime), not from generic "TS built" assumptions. In particular:
+
+- `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:rust` have **no upstream artifact preconditions** — they operate on source.
+- `verify:unit:ts` operates on source via `bun test`'s on-the-fly transpilation — no `dist/` precondition.
+- `verify:canary` requires only a fresh NAPI binary; it does NOT require `packages/extract/dist/` or any other package's `dist/`.
+- `verify:integration` requires a fresh NAPI binary AND `packages/extract/dist/index.mjs` (because it imports `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` at runtime).
+- `verify:build:next` and `verify:build:showcase` require `bun install` resolution and `packages/extract/*.node` (bundler invokes the plugin at build time).
+- `verify:assert:next` requires `e2e/next-app/.next/` (post-migration path) build output.
+- `verify:assert:showcase` requires `packages/showcase/dist/` build output.
+
+#### Scenario: Missing NAPI binary surfaces as precondition failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:canary` with no `packages/extract/*.node` file present
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr includes the exact message "ERROR: NAPI binary missing. Run: bun run build:extract" (or equivalent identifying the required upstream command)
+
+#### Scenario: Stale NAPI binary surfaces as precondition failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:canary` with a `.node` file older than the newest `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` source file
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr identifies the binary as stale and includes the command `bun run build:extract`
+
+#### Scenario: Present upstream artifact allows tier to run
+
+- **WHEN** the fresh NAPI binary is present
+- **AND** the developer runs `verify:canary`
+- **THEN** the canary tests execute without any build step being re-run by the tier itself
+
+#### Scenario: Tier does not rebuild upstream silently
+
+- **WHEN** `verify:integration` is invoked with `packages/extract/dist/` missing
+- **THEN** the tier exits with a precondition failure identifying `bun run build:ts` (or `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build:ts`) as the required upstream
+- **AND** the tier does NOT invoke the build itself
+
+#### Scenario: Source-reading tier has no artifact precondition
+
+- **WHEN** `verify:compile` or `verify:types` or `verify:unit:ts` runs
+- **THEN** the tier does NOT fail on missing `dist/` artifacts (because it reads source, not `dist/`)
+- **AND** any precondition the script emits is limited to actual runtime inputs (e.g., `bun install` has been run)
+
+### Requirement: Composite Orchestrators
+
+The repository SHALL provide five composite orchestrators: `verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:ci`, `verify:next`, `verify:showcase`.
+
+- `verify` is the inner-loop fast gate and MUST compose: `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:canary`. It MUST NOT include integration, build, or assert tiers that require full fixture builds or package-dist artifacts.
+- `verify:full` MUST compose `verify` plus `verify:integration`, `verify:build:next`, `verify:build:showcase`, `verify:assert:next`, `verify:assert:showcase`. It runs everything a local developer can run on one machine.
+- `verify:ci` MUST simulate the CI job set and ordering (lint, test-rust, build-extract, verify-equivalent including integration + showcase assert) as closely as practical locally. It MUST invoke `bun run build:extract` and `bun run build:ts` inline (since CI materializes the binary and dist artifacts before verify). It is a best-effort mirror; byte-identical runner reproduction is a non-goal.
+- `verify:next` MUST chain `verify:build:next && verify:assert:next`.
+- `verify:showcase` MUST chain `verify:build:showcase && verify:assert:showcase`.
+
+#### Scenario: verify is the fast gate
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify`
+- **THEN** only the fast-gate tiers execute
+- **AND** no showcase or next-app build is triggered
+- **AND** no integration tests run (they belong to `verify:full`)
+
+#### Scenario: verify:full includes integration + build + assert tiers
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify:full`
+- **THEN** the fast-gate tiers execute first
+- **AND** `verify:integration`, build tiers, and assert tiers execute after in dependency order
+
+#### Scenario: verify:ci mirrors CI ordering and coverage
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify:ci`
+- **THEN** the local execution order matches CI: `verify:lint` → `verify:unit:rust` → `bun run build:extract` → `bun run build:ts` → `verify:compile` → `verify:types` → `verify:unit:ts` → `verify:canary` → `verify:integration` → `verify:build:showcase` → `verify:assert:showcase`
+- **AND** integration tests run (mirroring CI's `bun test` coverage)
+- **AND** showcase build + assert runs (mirroring CI's `bun run test:showcase` step)
+- **AND** release-gated steps are skipped
+
+#### Scenario: verify:next and verify:showcase chain build + assert
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify:next`
+- **THEN** `verify:build:next` runs first
+- **AND** on success, `verify:assert:next` runs against the produced output
+- **AND** on first-tier failure, the second tier does not run
+
+### Requirement: Shell-Based Fail-Loud Preconditions
+
+Every atomic tier script SHALL use shell (`bash`) preconditions at the top of the script to validate upstream artifacts before running its primary work. Preconditions MUST print a clear message to stderr on failure that names the missing or stale artifact and the exact command to produce/refresh it. Preconditions MUST exit with a non-zero status on failure. Preconditions MUST NOT attempt to produce the upstream artifact themselves.
+
+When a tier has multiple upstream preconditions, the script SHALL check each precondition in turn and SHALL short-circuit at the first failure. The failure message SHALL name the first missing/stale artifact and its fix command. (A future Tier-3 amendment may require printing all violations; for now, short-circuit is acceptable.)
+
+#### Scenario: Precondition message is actionable
+
+- **WHEN** a precondition fails
+- **THEN** stderr contains a line matching the shape "ERROR: <what's missing or stale>. Run: <exact command>"
+
+#### Scenario: Precondition is the first executable line
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer inspects any atomic tier script
+- **THEN** the precondition block appears before any command that does the tier's primary work
+
+#### Scenario: NAPI precondition checks mtime freshness
+
+- **WHEN** a tier's precondition checks for the NAPI binary
+- **THEN** the check includes both file existence AND mtime comparison against `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` newest source
+- **AND** a stale binary surfaces the same error shape as a missing binary
+
+### Requirement: Root CLAUDE.md Verification Tier Table
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL contain a single authoritative Verification Tier Table under a `## Verification Tiers` (or equivalent) heading. The table SHALL include, for every atomic tier and every composite orchestrator, the following columns: `Command`, `What it covers`, `Upstream requires`, `Fails loud when`, `Typical runtime`.
+
+Per-package `CLAUDE.md` files (including but not limited to `packages/system/CLAUDE.md`, `packages/extract/CLAUDE.md`, `packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md`, `packages/showcase/CLAUDE.md`) SHALL NOT duplicate the Verification Tier Table. They MUST link back to the root table for verification commands.
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL include a forward-pointer stating that per-package CLAUDE.md files contain domain-specific guidance that is NOT duplicated at root, encouraging agents to drill into the relevant `packages/<name>/CLAUDE.md` after consulting the root tier table.
+
+#### Scenario: Agent looks up a tier
+
+- **WHEN** an agent loads root `CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** the Verification Tier Table lists every atomic tier and composite orchestrator
+- **AND** for each entry, the agent can read its upstream dependency and fail-loud trigger without following external links
+
+#### Scenario: Per-package file links back
+
+- **WHEN** an agent reads `packages/system/CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** any mention of verification commands links to the root table rather than listing duplicated commands
+
+#### Scenario: Root file points forward
+
+- **WHEN** an agent reads the root `CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** a note directs the agent to per-package `CLAUDE.md` files for domain detail that is not at the root
+
+### Requirement: Change-Type Map
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL contain a Change-Type Map: a table with the columns `You changed` (an edit-surface description, e.g., a path glob or behavior) and `Run` (the minimum verification-tier set to run for that change). The map MUST contain 11 canonical rows covering the primary edit surfaces of the repository, plus a sidebar note covering non-verify edit surfaces.
+
+Rows SHALL be added when a new top-level edit surface (e.g., a new publishable package, a new `e2e/*` fixture) is introduced.
+
+The initial 11 rows:
+
+| You changed | Run |
+|---|---|
+| `packages/system/src/**` | `verify:compile && verify:types && verify:unit:ts` |
+| `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` | `verify:unit:rust && verify:canary && verify:integration` |
+| `packages/extract/src/**/*.ts` (NAPI TS binding / pipeline) | `verify:canary && verify:integration` |
+| `packages/vite-plugin/src/**` | `verify:compile && verify:integration && verify:showcase` |
+| `packages/next-plugin/src/**` | `verify:compile && verify:next` |
+| `packages/showcase/src/**` (code; MDX content excluded — see sidebar) | `verify:showcase` |
+| `packages/properties/src/**` | `verify:compile && verify:unit:ts` |
+| `packages/_integration/__tests__/**` | `verify:integration` |
+| `packages/test-ds/src/**` | `verify:unit:ts && verify:next && verify:showcase` |
+| `.github/workflows/ci.yaml`, `scripts/**`, `.tool-versions` | `verify:ci` |
+| Broad refactor across multiple surfaces | `verify:full` |
+
+Sidebar — **no verify tier required**: `openspec/**` (run `openspec validate` instead), MDX content under `packages/showcase/src/content/**`, root markdown (`CLAUDE.md`, `README.md`, `docs/**`).
+
+The Change-Type Map SHALL be the authoritative instructability surface for agents selecting minimum verification for a narrow change.
+
+#### Scenario: Agent selects verification set from the map
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only `packages/system/src/**`
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map in root `CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** the agent runs `verify:compile && verify:types && verify:unit:ts`
+- **AND** does not run unrelated tiers such as `verify:build:next`
+
+#### Scenario: OpenSpec edit does not trigger verify
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only files under `openspec/`
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map sidebar
+- **THEN** the agent runs `openspec validate` only
+- **AND** does not invoke any `verify:*` tier
+
+#### Scenario: MDX content edit does not trigger verify
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only MDX files under `packages/showcase/src/content/**`
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map sidebar
+- **THEN** no `verify:*` tier is required
+
+#### Scenario: New edit surface requires a map row
+
+- **WHEN** a change introduces a new publishable package or a new top-level edit surface
+- **THEN** the same change MUST add a corresponding row to the Change-Type Map
+
+### Requirement: Per-Package Script Policy
+
+Per-package `package.json` scripts SHALL remain as the implementation invoked by root orchestrators. Root orchestrators MAY invoke per-package scripts via `bun run --filter` or equivalent workspace dispatch. Per-package scripts MUST NOT be duplicated into the root as the primary interface — the Verification Tier Table is the primary interface.
+
+Developers MAY invoke per-package scripts directly (`cd packages/X && bun run <script>`) when working inside a single package.
+
+#### Scenario: Root orchestrator delegates to per-package script
+
+- **WHEN** `verify:integration` runs
+- **THEN** it invokes the per-package test script in `packages/_integration` via the workspace
+- **AND** the implementation lives in `packages/_integration/package.json`, not duplicated at root
+
+### Requirement: Bun Version Pin
+
+A `.tool-versions` file SHALL exist at the repository root declaring the pinned bun version. The `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` file SHALL use `bun-version-file: .tool-versions` on every `oven-sh/setup-bun@v2` step. Bun version upgrades are explicit single-file edits to `.tool-versions`.
+
+If other tooling configuration pins a bun version (for example, `netlify.toml` `BUN_VERSION`), that configuration SHALL be updated in the same change that edits `.tool-versions`, keeping all pin surfaces in sync.
+
+#### Scenario: CI consumes pinned bun version
+
+- **WHEN** a CI workflow step uses `oven-sh/setup-bun@v2`
+- **THEN** it specifies `bun-version-file: .tool-versions`
+- **AND** the installed bun version matches the content of `.tool-versions`
+
+#### Scenario: Local bun version manager respects pin
+
+- **WHEN** a developer uses `asdf`, `mise`, `proto`, or another `.tool-versions`-aware version manager
+- **AND** runs a command inside the repository
+- **THEN** the active bun version matches the content of `.tool-versions`
+
+#### Scenario: Version upgrade is a scoped edit
+
+- **WHEN** a developer upgrades bun
+- **THEN** the change edits `.tool-versions` AND any other pin surface (e.g., `netlify.toml` `BUN_VERSION`) atomically
+- **AND** no CI workflow modifications are required
+
+### Requirement: verify:ci CI-Simulation Semantics
+
+`verify:ci` SHALL reproduce the CI workflow's job set and execution order locally on a best-effort basis. It MUST run the same command sequence as CI jobs `lint`, `test-rust`, `build-extract`, and `verify` (in that order). It MUST invoke `bun run build:extract` and `bun run build:ts` inline (CI materializes these artifacts before verify). It MUST include `verify:integration` and `verify:build:showcase` + `verify:assert:showcase` (CI runs both).
+
+It MUST NOT attempt runner-OS parity, matrix-target multiplicity (CI builds 3 platform binaries; local builds 1), or release-gated steps.
+
+If CI workflow ordering or coverage changes, `verify:ci` MUST be updated in the same change that modifies `ci.yaml`.
+
+#### Scenario: CI ordering matches locally
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:ci`
+- **THEN** lint runs first, then Rust unit tests, then `bun run build:extract`, then `bun run build:ts`, then the verify-equivalent tiers including integration and showcase assert
+
+#### Scenario: CI workflow edit keeps verify:ci in sync
+
+- **WHEN** a change modifies `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` job ordering or commands
+- **THEN** the same change modifies the `verify:ci` script to match

+## 1. Bun Version Pin (foundation)
+
+- [x] 1.1 Pin bun to version **1.3.11** (local + netlify already use this; 1.3.11 is pre-1.3.12-createRequire-regression). Recorded in `.tool-versions` at repo root with a single line `bun 1.3.11`.
+- [x] 1.2 `oven-sh/setup-bun@v2` consumes `bun-version-file: .tool-versions` — applied to all 4 sites in one change rather than phased rollout (atomic-cutover consistent with design Decision 7).
+- [x] 1.3 Updated all 4 `oven-sh/setup-bun@v2` sites in `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` (lint, build-extract, verify, release jobs) with `with: bun-version-file: .tool-versions`.
+- [x] 1.4 `netlify.toml` `BUN_VERSION = "1.3.11"` already matches `.tool-versions` pin. No edit required; kept as-is.
+- [ ] 1.5 Run local `bun install && bun run verify` to confirm no version drift; push to a feature branch and confirm CI green with the pinned version. (Deferred to Phase F validation.)
+
+## 2. Audit Current Verification Surface
+
+- [ ] 2.1 Inventory current root `package.json` scripts: list every `verify:*`, `test:*`, `build:*`, `clean:*`, `dev:*`, `deploy:*`, `compile`, `lint`, `format`, `check`, `check:fix` with a one-line description of what each does today.
+- [ ] 2.2 Identify which atomic concerns each current script mixes (e.g., `verify` mixes `build:ts` + `compile` + `test` + `test:rust` + `test:types` + `check` — some are atomic, some are composite).
+- [ ] 2.3 Map current scripts to the target tier table: which current script becomes which atomic tier, which becomes which composite orchestrator, which is removed entirely.
+- [ ] 2.4 Cross-reference per-package `package.json` scripts: which atomic tiers are actually implemented per-package (e.g., `packages/_integration` has its own `test` script that `verify:integration` should delegate to).
+
+## 3. Atomic Tier Scripts
+
+- [x] 3.1 Created `scripts/verify/` directory for per-tier shell scripts.
+- [x] 3.2 Wrote `scripts/verify/lint.sh` — no preconditions; exec `bun run check`.
+- [x] 3.3 Wrote `scripts/verify/compile.sh` — precondition: `node_modules/.bin/tsc` exists; exec `bun run --filter './packages/*' compile`.
+- [x] 3.4 Wrote `scripts/verify/types.sh` — precondition: `node_modules/.bin/tsc` exists; exec `tsc -p packages/system/__tests__/tsconfig.test-d.json --noEmit`.
+- [x] 3.5 Wrote `scripts/verify/unit-rust.sh` — no preconditions; `cd packages/extract && cargo test --lib`.
+- [x] 3.6 Wrote `scripts/verify/unit-ts.sh` — no preconditions; explicit path list: `bun test packages/system/__tests__ packages/vite-plugin/tests packages/properties/__tests__`.
+- [x] 3.7 Wrote `scripts/verify/canary.sh` — NAPI existence + mtime-freshness preconditions; exec `bun test packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts`.
+- [x] 3.8 Wrote `scripts/verify/integration.sh` — NAPI-fresh AND `packages/extract/dist/index.mjs` preconditions; exec `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/integration' test`.
+- [x] 3.9 Wrote `scripts/verify/build-next.sh` — NAPI-fresh AND `packages/extract/dist/index.mjs` preconditions; exec `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/next-test-app' build` (path + filter identifier stay at current values; rename is owned by `e2e-workspace-topology`).
+- [x] 3.10 Wrote `scripts/verify/build-showcase.sh` — NAPI-fresh AND `packages/extract/dist/index.mjs` preconditions; exec `bun run --filter './packages/showcase' build`.
+- [x] 3.11 Wrote `scripts/verify/assert-next.sh` — precondition: `packages/next-test-app/.next/` exists; exec `bash packages/next-test-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh` (path updates in `e2e-workspace-topology`).
+- [x] 3.12 Wrote `scripts/verify/assert-showcase.sh` — precondition: `packages/showcase/dist/` exists; exec `bash scripts/assert-showcase.sh`.
+- [ ] 3.13 For every atomic tier script, confirm that running it with a clean slate (no upstream artifacts) exits non-zero with a readable "ERROR: X missing. Run: Y" message. (Validated in Phase F §8.)
+- [ ] 3.14 For every atomic tier script, confirm that running it with upstream artifacts present executes only its single concern and does not rebuild upstream. (Validated in Phase F §8.)
+
+## 4. Composite Orchestrator Scripts
+
+- [x] 4.1 `verify` defined as `verify:lint && verify:compile && verify:types && verify:unit:ts && verify:unit:rust && verify:canary` (fast gate; excludes integration, build, assert).
+- [x] 4.2 `verify:full` defined as `verify && verify:integration && verify:build:next && verify:build:showcase && verify:assert:next && verify:assert:showcase`.
+- [x] 4.3 `verify:ci` defined mirroring CI order: `verify:lint → verify:unit:rust → build:extract → build:ts → verify:compile → verify:types → verify:unit:ts → verify:canary → verify:integration → verify:build:showcase → verify:assert:showcase`. Includes integration (CI `bun test` picks it up) and showcase build+assert (CI `test:showcase`). `bun run build:extract` and `bun run build:ts` invoked inline (CI materializes these before verify).
+- [x] 4.4 `verify:next` defined as `verify:build:next && verify:assert:next`.
+- [x] 4.5 `verify:showcase` defined as `verify:build:showcase && verify:assert:showcase` (was previously `bun run build:all && --filter showcase build` — breaking redefinition per design Decision 7).
+- [ ] 4.6 Confirm composite orchestrators show which atomic tier failed when they fail. (Validated in Phase F §8 — fail-loud preconditions emit per-tier error messages; `&&` short-circuits on first non-zero.)
+- [x] 4.7 Removed 5 orphaned scripts (`test:canary`, `test:next`, `test:showcase`, `test:types`, `test:rust`) in-place. No deprecation aliases — atomic cutover per design Decision 7.
+
+## 5. CLAUDE.md: Root Verification Tier Table
+
+- [x] 5.1 Replaced "Verification Commands" table in root `CLAUDE.md` with two tables under `### Verification Tiers`: Atomic Tiers and Composite Orchestrators.
+- [x] 5.2 Populated 11 atomic tier rows with all 5 columns (Command, What it covers, Upstream requires, Fails loud when, Typical runtime).
+- [x] 5.3 Populated 5 composite orchestrator rows (verify, verify:full, verify:ci, verify:next, verify:showcase).
+- [x] 5.4 Added explicit note: "Per-package `CLAUDE.md` files MUST NOT duplicate it — they link back here."
+- [x] 5.5 Added forward-pointer: "For domain-specific guidance, drill into `packages/<name>/CLAUDE.md` after consulting this table."
+
+## 6. CLAUDE.md: Root Change-Type Map
+
+- [x] 6.1 Added `### Change-Type Map` section after the Verification Tier Table (sub-heading of Monorepo Build System, for index-depth parity with Verification Tiers).
+- [x] 6.2 Populated 11 canonical rows (system, extract Rust, extract TS, vite-plugin, next-plugin, showcase code, properties, _integration tests, test-ds, CI/scripts/tool-versions, broad refactor).
+- [x] 6.3 Added sidebar "No verify tier required" bulleted list covering `openspec/**`, MDX content, and root markdown.
+- [x] 6.4 Added ownership rule: "any change introducing a new top-level edit surface (e.g., a new publishable package, a new `e2e/*` fixture) MUST add a corresponding row to this map in the same change that introduces the surface."
+
+## 7. Per-Package CLAUDE.md Deduplication
+
+- [x] 7.1 `packages/system/CLAUDE.md` — replaced `bun run test:types` inline reference with link-back to root § Verification Tiers.
+- [x] 7.2 `packages/extract/CLAUDE.md` — replaced "## Verification" block (`bun run test:canary`, `bun test`) with link-back note calling out relevant atomic tiers.
+- [x] 7.3 `packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md` — no verify-command listing present (grep confirmed); no edit required.
+- [x] 7.4 `packages/showcase/CLAUDE.md` — replaced "## Verification" block (`bun run test:showcase`, `bun run verify:showcase`) with link-back note.
+- [x] 7.5 `.claude/rules/TESTING.md` — rewrote entire "Tiers & Commands" section to use new `verify:*` tier names (this is the auto-loaded rules file enumerating test tiers; staying in sync with the policy).
+
+## 8. Validation
+
+- [ ] 8.1 Scripted clean-slate precondition enumeration deferred — preconditions proven correct in-session via verify:canary runtime (NAPI + mtime check fires correctly) and via shell-script inspection against design.md Decision 1. Full clean-slate enumeration captured as §11 follow-up.
+- [x] 8.2 Atomic tiers run with upstream artifacts present; all validated green in-session:
+  - `verify:lint` ✓ (after `check:fix` resolved pre-existing formatter drift in 6 files)
+  - `verify:compile` ✓ (tsc --noEmit across all packages)
+  - `verify:types` ✓
+  - `verify:unit:rust` ✓ (254 passed, 0 failed)
+  - `verify:unit:ts` ✓ (108 pass, 0 fail, 311 expect calls, 354ms)
+  - `verify:canary` ✓ (192 pass, 4 snapshots, 413 expect calls, 97ms)
+  - `verify:integration` ✓ (87 pass, 183 expect calls)
+  - `verify:build:showcase` ✓ (vite build, 704ms)
+  - `verify:assert:showcase` ✓ (6/6 positional assertions)
+  - `verify:build:next` ✓ (post pre-existing type-fix by maintainer)
+  - `verify:assert:next` ✗ — pre-existing issue, DEFERRED (see §11.8)
+- [x] 8.3 `bun run verify` (fast gate) passes end-to-end. Wall-clock inside-loop reasonable (~15s local, dominated by unit:rust cargo compile).
+- [ ] 8.4 `bun run verify:full` not run as a single end-to-end composite in-session; individual constituent tiers (above) cover its coverage surface 10-of-11 — only the single pre-existing assert:next gap blocks the composite pass. Gate on §11.8 follow-up.
+- [ ] 8.5 `bun run verify:ci` not run in-session — CI confirmation delegated to actual CI via §8.7 push.
+- [ ] 8.6 Explicit `touch packages/extract/src/lib.rs` stale-binary scenario test deferred — logic matches design.md Decision 1 exactly; NAPI existence + mtime check visible in `scripts/verify/canary.sh`. Captured as §11 follow-up.
+- [x] 8.7 Maintainer pushed change to `next` branch directly (prerelease / solo-author context). CI run in-flight. Authoritative CI signal expected via maintainer report.
+
+## 9. Documentation + Announce
+
+- [x] 9.1 Cross-check performed. The existing `bun-workspace` spec § "Simplified root scripts" enumerated `test:canary` and `test:showcase` by name — both are removed by this change. Added `specs/bun-workspace/spec.md` with MODIFIED "Simplified root scripts" requirement updating the script inventory scenario to enumerate the new `verify:*` atomic + composite scripts and explicitly exclude the 5 removed orphans. Version pin itself is covered by the new `verification-tier-policy/spec.md` § "Bun Version Pin" — no duplication in bun-workspace.
+- [x] 9.2 Changelog note (captured in this task file below):
+  - **BREAKING**: `verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:showcase` semantics changed.
+    - Old `verify`: `build:ts && compile && bun test && test:rust && test:types && check` (built TS, mixed test scopes, ran biome check)
+    - New `verify`: fast-gate composite — `verify:lint && verify:compile && verify:types && verify:unit:ts && verify:unit:rust && verify:canary`. No builds. No showcase.
+    - Old `verify:full`: `build:all && bun test && test:rust && check && test:showcase`
+    - New `verify:full`: fast-gate + integration + all build + all assert tiers.
+    - Old `verify:showcase`: `build:all && --filter showcase build`
+    - New `verify:showcase`: composite `verify:build:showcase && verify:assert:showcase`.
+  - **REMOVED** (no aliases): `test:canary`, `test:next`, `test:showcase`, `test:types`, `test:rust`. Migration: use corresponding `verify:*` tiers per root CLAUDE.md Change-Type Map.
+  - **ADDED**: 11 atomic `verify:*` tiers + new composites `verify:ci`, `verify:next`.
+- [x] 9.3 Memory cleanup surfaced: `.claude/rules/TESTING.md` was updated inline (it auto-loads and enumerated old tier names). No other personal CLAUDE.md or session-note drift detected in scope (session memory files describe the changes themselves, not verify-command semantics). Downstream session notes referencing old `test:*` names will be self-rotting as future sessions re-ground against root CLAUDE.md.
+
+## 10. Post-Merge Integration
+
+- [ ] 10.1 After merge, confirm `legacy-package-archival` and `e2e-workspace-topology` adopt tier-compatible naming rather than adding monolithic scripts.
+- [ ] 10.2 Confirm no orphaned `test:*` scripts remain; all verification entry points go through the tier policy.
+
+## 11. Deferred Items (Tier-3, address after Tiers 1–2 complete)
+
+- [ ] 11.1 Decide on `verify:dev` / `verify:hmr` tier: add an atomic tier covering HMR/dev-server smoke (e.g., boot dev server, trigger a file change, confirm transform re-run) — OR — declare explicitly out of scope with justification (e.g., "HMR verification belongs to `integration-test-infrastructure`; inner-loop HMR debugging is live-observed, not scripted"). Document the decision in `design.md` as Decision 9.
+- [ ] 11.2 Benchmark step: measure `verify` fast-gate wall-clock time on a clean build and compare against the pre-change `verify` wall-clock time. Record the numbers in a file or commit message. If new `verify` is slower than previous, investigate overlap between `verify:compile` + `verify:types` + `verify:unit:ts` and potentially drop one from the fast gate with justification.
+- [ ] 11.3 Add an `Upstream artifacts needed` column to the Change-Type Map — so agents know whether to run `bun run build:all` before the listed tier set (e.g., `verify:integration` needs `build:ts`; `verify:compile` does not).
+- [ ] 11.4 Add multi-precondition failure scenario to the spec: when a tier has multiple preconditions and more than one fails, should the script print all violations or short-circuit at the first? Current spec says short-circuit; evaluate whether full-enumeration is worth the script complexity.
+- [ ] 11.5 Clarify `verify:assert:*` "fails loud when" column: "fails loud when build output dist is missing; fails normally (non-zero exit) when assertions themselves fail." The distinction matters for interpreting CI failures.
+- [ ] 11.6 Document the `cd legacy/<pkg> && bun install` footgun (legacy packages have `workspace:*` cross-refs that no longer resolve) in root CLAUDE.md `## Legacy Packages` section — add to that section's task list in `legacy-package-archival`.
+- [ ] 11.7 Idempotency pre-check for `legacy-package-archival` task 4: add a state-recording step before any `private:`/`publishConfig:` edit so the task is safely re-runnable.
+- [ ] 11.8 Investigate `verify:assert:next` finding: "FAIL: CSS contains @layer base" + "FAIL: CSS contains @layer variants" after a clean next-test-app build. Surfaced by the verification-tier-policy apply but NOT caused by it — pre-existing extraction output gap in next-test-app (showcase assertions pass all 6, so not a general extraction regression). Candidates: next-plugin CSS handling for app-router vs pages-router, layer ordering in the virtual stylesheet emission path, missing extraction for a component category in next-test-app. Not blocking merge of verification-tier-policy; this tier correctly surfaced the issue.
+- [ ] 11.9 Clean-slate precondition enumeration (task §8.1): scripted run that deletes upstream artifacts in turn and runs each tier to confirm every precondition fires with the expected "ERROR: X missing. Run: Y" shape. Worth writing as `scripts/verify/_test-preconditions.sh` in a follow-up, idempotent + no cargo side-effects.
+- [ ] 11.10 Explicit stale-binary scenario (task §8.6): `touch packages/extract/src/lib.rs` → run `verify:canary` → confirm "ERROR: NAPI binary is stale" message. Small risk of perturbing cargo incremental cache; worth doing once deliberately with a `bun run rebuild` follow-up.
+- [x] 11.11 **Generalized dist-staleness preconditions for consumer-facing tiers.** This is a systematic gap in the fail-loud precondition contract shipped by this change: `verify:build:next`, `verify:build:showcase`, and `verify:integration` all consume downstream packages through `dist/` (type definitions and/or JS), but their preconditions only check `dist/` existence — not mtime freshness against the owning package's `src/**`. The NAPI-stale check is the one-off realization of a pattern that generalizes. In practice, stale-dist leads to misleading green/red signals in consumer tiers (observed directly: an apparent successful `verify:build:next` against stale `packages/system/dist/` that reversed to a real type error after rebuild). Proposed amendment: add a second precondition helper for package-dist freshness, applied to `packages/system`, `packages/properties`, `packages/extract` (ts dist), `packages/vite-plugin`, `packages/next-plugin` wherever a downstream tier consumes them. Surfacing as a follow-up because this is a spec-level amendment that changes Requirement text on the `verification-tier-policy` capability — worth its own focused change rather than rushing into the current apply. **→ DONE-BY-FOLLOWUP**: delivered by the `dist-staleness-preconditions` change, applied 2026-04-13; see `openspec/changes/archive/<date>-dist-staleness-preconditions/` once that change is archived.

+## Context
+
+The `verification-tier-policy` capability shipped 11 atomic tier scripts in `scripts/verify/`, each with inline shell preconditions. The NAPI binary check is the only mtime-based staleness guard; every other dist-consuming tier has an existence-only check. Observed failure mode during the `verification-tier-policy` apply: `verify:build:next` reported green against a stale `packages/system/dist/`, reversed to a real type error after explicit `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts`. The false-green was a single instance of a general class — any consumer tier can silently test against stale dist.
+
+Current precondition surface (✓@now as of post-apply state):
+- `scripts/verify/canary.sh` — NAPI exists + mtime > Rust src (✓ full stale check)
+- `scripts/verify/integration.sh` — NAPI exists + mtime > Rust src + `extract/dist/index.mjs` exists (**no mtime check on extract dist, no check on system dist**)
+- `scripts/verify/build-next.sh` — NAPI exists + mtime > Rust src + `extract/dist/index.mjs` exists (**no mtime check, no system/next-plugin dist check**)
+- `scripts/verify/build-showcase.sh` — NAPI exists + mtime > Rust src + `extract/dist/index.mjs` exists (**no mtime check, no system/vite-plugin/properties dist check**)
+
+Inline staleness logic is duplicated across 4 scripts. Duplication is the vector for the gap spreading further as more tiers are added.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Every tier that consumes a package `dist/` fails loud if that dist is stale relative to its owning package's `src/**`.
+- The staleness-check pattern is implemented once, sourced by all tier scripts — one authoritative contract, not 4+ copies.
+- Fail-loud messages stay consumer-actionable: each error line names the stale artifact AND the exact command to refresh it.
+- The NAPI-specific pattern currently inline in 4 scripts collapses into the shared helper, reducing surface area.
+- Helper-driven tier scripts are more legible — intent per tier is visible as `require_*` function calls, not a wall of `find` + `ls` one-liners.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- No new atomic tiers. No new composite orchestrators. Scope is preconditions only.
+- No changes to the Change-Type Map, tier naming convention, or `verify:ci` composite semantics.
+- No changes to the `packages/extract/*.node` artifact produced by the NAPI build; check logic moves into the helper but the artifact path and its freshness rule stay identical.
+- No runtime handling of CSSObject-returning transforms — that's a separate concern flagged in `packages/system/src/types/config.ts`.
+- No enforcement of dist-freshness outside the verify tier layer (e.g., at `bun install` time or via a workspace-wide hook).
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Helper library as a sourced shell file, not a spawned subprocess
+
+`scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` is designed to be sourced (`source "$ROOT/scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh"`) from each atomic tier script. Functions run in the caller's process.
+
+**Rationale**: sourcing preserves the caller's exit semantics (`set -euo pipefail`, early-exit on error). Calling as a subprocess would require every function to propagate exit codes explicitly and the caller to check each one — more complex and more error-prone. Sourcing also avoids the cost of spawning a bash subprocess for each precondition.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- TS utility via `bun`: gives richer errors and reusable types, but requires a TS runtime startup per tier. Shell is strictly lighter-weight and matches the existing `assert-*.sh` pattern. Reject.
+- Inline in each tier script (no shared helper): the status quo. Duplication is the problem this change solves. Reject.
+
+### Decision 2: Helper function naming — `require_*` prefix
+
+All precondition functions are named `require_<noun>[_<modifier>]`: `require_bun_install`, `require_fresh_napi`, `require_fresh_package_dist`, `require_dir`. Every function is a contract assertion that exits non-zero with a readable error on failure.
+
+**Rationale**: `require_*` reads naturally in the caller script as a sequence of assertions. It mirrors `set -e`-style "demand or abort" semantics without reaching for exceptions or return-code plumbing. Any maintainer reading a tier script sees "this tier requires X, Y, Z" as a top-of-file contract.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- `check_*` prefix: ambiguous — could be read as "might succeed might fail, caller decides." Reject.
+- `assert_*` prefix: closer to test-suite vocabulary; `require` is the more common shell-script idiom for "abort if not met." Minor preference for `require`.
+
+### Decision 3: `require_fresh_package_dist <pkg>` signature takes one argument
+
+Signature: `require_fresh_package_dist <pkg>` where `<pkg>` is the directory name under `packages/` (e.g., `system`, `extract`, `vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`, `properties`). Internally the helper:
+
+1. Resolves the key dist artifact to check via probe order: `packages/<pkg>/dist/index.mjs` then `packages/<pkg>/dist/index.js` — whichever exists first is the key artifact. Both are valid published ESM entries: tsdown emits `.mjs` for some workspace packages (extract, vite-plugin, next-plugin) and `.js` for packages whose `package.json` declares `"type": "module"` (system, properties). If neither exists, the dist is considered missing. **This probe-order was amended during apply**: the initial design assumed universal `.mjs` emission, but reality has two patterns; amendment keeps the helper reality-aligned without changing the precondition contract's intent.
+2. Resolves the source tree to check against. Default: `packages/<pkg>/src/**` for TS-only packages; for packages with Rust source, `src/**/*.rs` is also included.
+3. Runs: existence check AND `find packages/<pkg>/src -newer <dist-artifact> -print -quit`.
+4. On failure, prints `ERROR: packages/<pkg>/dist/ is stale (src newer than dist). Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/<pkg>' build:ts` and exits 1.
+
+**Rationale**: one-argument call site is legible (`require_fresh_package_dist system`) and the helper encapsulates per-package defaults. Uniform contract — every consumer tier treats any upstream dist the same way.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Two-argument signature `require_fresh_package_dist <pkg> <artifact>` — more flexible but pushes the default-artifact knowledge out to every caller. Reject; caller repetition defeats the helper.
+- Separate helper per package (`require_fresh_system_dist`, `require_fresh_extract_dist`, ...): explosion of function names. Reject.
+
+### Decision 4: Fix command in the error message is derived, not hardcoded
+
+The fail-loud message includes `Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/<pkg>' build:ts`, derived from the `<pkg>` argument. If the target package uses a different build script than `build:ts` (e.g., `extract` uses `build:extract`), the helper dispatches: for `extract`, suggest `bun run build:extract`; for other packages, suggest `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/<pkg>' build:ts`.
+
+**Rationale**: the error message must be consumer-actionable without requiring the reader to know the workspace script naming convention. Special-casing `extract` in the helper is cheap and keeps one truth path for the NAPI refresh command.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Pass `<fix_command>` as a second argument: makes helper more flexible but duplicates the command across caller sites. Reject.
+- Always suggest `bun run build:all`: works but is heavier than needed. Reject.
+
+### Decision 5: NAPI check (`require_fresh_napi`) is a distinct function, not a variant of `require_fresh_package_dist`
+
+The NAPI binary check has domain-specific shape: it looks for `packages/extract/*.node` (glob match, platform-varying name), compares against `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` (Rust-source filter), and suggests `bun run build:extract` (not `build:ts`). Keeping it as its own function matches that domain shape, and the NAPI binary existence check is the first fail-loud call in every NAPI-dependent tier — factoring it out preserves readability.
+
+**Rationale**: the package-dist check and the NAPI check differ in artifact identity (binary vs module), source filter (`.rs` vs `.ts|.tsx`), and fix command (`build:extract` vs `build:ts`). Forcing both into one function hurts legibility.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Parameterize `require_fresh_package_dist` to handle NAPI: possible but bloats the function's contract. Reject.
+
+### Decision 6: Short-circuit on first failure, clear per-dist message
+
+When a tier has multiple upstream dists (e.g., `verify:build:showcase` depends on 4 packages), each `require_*` call runs sequentially. First failure aborts the script with the failing artifact's specific error message. No enumeration of downstream failures.
+
+**Rationale**: matches the existing `verification-tier-policy` Requirement "Shell-Based Fail-Loud Preconditions" short-circuit rule. Enumeration was explicitly deferred there as a Tier-3 follow-up; this proposal preserves the short-circuit semantics.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Enumerate all failures before exiting: better DX, more complex implementation. Defer to the already-queued Tier-3 item.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Helper bugs propagate to every tier.** A bug in `require_fresh_package_dist` breaks every consumer tier simultaneously. **Mitigation**: helper is ~30 lines of shell, kept deliberately minimal. Every tier script sources it so a regression surfaces in `verify` fast-gate on the first run. Unit-test-style validation (task: delete each dist in turn, confirm each tier fails with the exact expected message) covers the helper by exercising it through tier callers.
+
+**[Risk] Helper introduces a new runtime dependency — `bash` with `source` support — that must exist on every runner.** **Mitigation**: this is already a requirement for the shipping tier scripts (`#!/usr/bin/env bash`, `set -euo pipefail`). CI runners have bash. Local macOS / Linux dev machines have bash. No new constraint.
+
+**[Risk] Staleness checks false-positive on filesystem metadata edge cases** (e.g., clock skew on shared filesystems, touch-preserving git checkouts). **Mitigation**: mtime comparison via `find -newer` is the same mechanism the shipping NAPI check uses — if it bites, the whole precondition contract needs rethinking, not just this change. No worse than current state; arguably better because now every tier fails loud rather than silently passing.
+
+**[Risk] Extending preconditions increases the wall-clock of `verify` fast-gate slightly.** **Mitigation**: `find -newer -print -quit` exits on first match; for clean workspaces with a dozen src files, this is <10ms. Negligible.
+
+**[Trade-off] Tier scripts become dependent on a helper file's internal API (function names, argument shapes).** **Accepted**: this is the intended coupling. The alternative (no helper) is worse because every tier owns its own implementation and drifts.
+
+**[Trade-off] One-argument helper hides per-package knowledge (artifact path, fix command) inside the helper.** **Accepted**: per-package specialization belongs centralized, not spread across 11 tier scripts. If a package's build output path changes, one helper edit updates every caller.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+Single commit:
+
+1. **Write `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh`** with the four helper functions. Keep the file minimal and readable.
+2. **Rewrite 11 atomic tier scripts** to source the helper and call the appropriate functions. Remove inline precondition logic.
+3. **Extend preconditions** for `verify:integration`, `verify:build:next`, and `verify:build:showcase` per the dependency lists in the proposal.
+4. **Run each tier in isolation** — confirm green state with fresh dist; confirm fail-loud precondition fires with each expected error shape when a dist is deliberately deleted or stale-touched.
+5. **Update spec** via the MODIFIED + ADDED sections in this change's `specs/verification-tier-policy/spec.md`.
+6. **Push + merge**. Expected CI signal: `verify` fast-gate passes; any stale dist in CI surfaces loudly rather than producing silent false signals.
+
+Rollback: revert the single commit. Tier scripts return to their pre-helper inline form; the NAPI check continues to function exactly as before (unchanged semantically, just inline again).
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- **Should `verify:compile` and `verify:types` also gain staleness checks?** Leaning: **no**. Both read source directly via `tsc --noEmit`; no dist consumption. Adding checks would be defensive overreach. Revisit only if a use-case surfaces where `verify:compile` actually depends on a pre-built artifact.
+- **Should the helper expose a `require_fresh_root_dist <pkg-1> <pkg-2> ...` convenience for multi-dep tiers?** Leaning: **no**. Sequential calls are already legible and naming each dep explicitly makes the tier's dependency graph visible. Revisit if tier scripts accumulate 5+ `require_fresh_package_dist` calls.
+- **What about indirect dist dependencies** (e.g., `system` depends on `properties` and `core`; does a stale `properties/dist/` cause issues when only `system` is checked)? Leaning: **transitive staleness is out of scope for this change**. The assumption is that `bun run build:ts` across workspace packages runs in dependency order, so a fresh `system/dist/` presupposes a fresh `properties/dist/`. If that assumption breaks in practice, a follow-up change adds transitive checks.

+## Why
+
+The `verification-tier-policy` capability shipped atomic tiers with fail-loud preconditions, but the precondition contract only enforces staleness for the NAPI binary — every other consumer-facing package `dist/` is checked for **existence** only, not **freshness**. This produces misleading green/red signals whenever a consumer tier (e.g., `verify:build:next`) runs against a stale downstream dist. Directly observed during the apply of `verification-tier-policy`: `verify:build:next` reported green against stale `packages/system/dist/`, then reversed to a type error after explicit rebuild. Generalizing the stale-mtime pattern closes the hole.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **MODIFIED** Requirement "Atomic Tier Isolation" (in `verification-tier-policy` spec): extend the precondition-accuracy rules so that any tier consuming a downstream package `dist/` SHALL check that dist's freshness against its owning package's `src/**`. Specifically:
+  - `verify:integration` preconditions add: fresh `packages/extract/dist/index.mjs` (mtime vs `packages/extract/src/**`) and fresh `packages/system/dist/` (mtime vs `packages/system/src/**`).
+  - `verify:build:next` preconditions add: fresh `packages/extract/dist/`, fresh `packages/system/dist/`, fresh `packages/next-plugin/dist/` (each vs its own `src/**`).
+  - `verify:build:showcase` preconditions add: fresh `packages/extract/dist/`, fresh `packages/system/dist/`, fresh `packages/vite-plugin/dist/`, fresh `packages/properties/dist/` (each vs its own `src/**`).
+- **MODIFIED** Requirement "Shell-Based Fail-Loud Preconditions" (in `verification-tier-policy` spec): require that any dist-staleness check use the same `ls` + `find -newer` pattern as the NAPI binary check (existence AND mtime-comparison against src).
+- **ADDED** Requirement "Shared Precondition Helper Library" (in `verification-tier-policy` spec): introduce `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` as the single authoritative implementation of all preconditions. Helper exports composable shell functions: `require_bun_install`, `require_fresh_napi`, `require_fresh_package_dist <pkg>`, `require_dir <path> <fix_command>`. Every atomic tier script sources this helper and calls the appropriate functions. Existing inline NAPI mtime logic in 4 scripts moves into the helper.
+- **Breaking**: none for consumers; tier fail-loud messages may change wording as they flow through the shared helper. Same shape: `ERROR: X missing/stale. Run: Y`.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+<!-- None. This is an amendment to an existing capability. -->
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `verification-tier-policy`: extends the precondition contract to cover consumer-facing package dists beyond NAPI; adds a shared helper library Requirement as the implementation surface.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` (new)**: single file exporting the four helper functions. Sourced by every atomic tier script.
+- **`scripts/verify/*.sh` (modified, 11 files)**: each script sources `_preconditions.sh` and replaces inline precondition logic with helper calls. `verify:build:next`, `verify:build:showcase`, and `verify:integration` gain additional `require_fresh_package_dist` calls per the dependency lists above.
+- **`openspec/specs/verification-tier-policy/spec.md` (modified)**: two MODIFIED Requirements + one ADDED Requirement per the change's `specs/verification-tier-policy/spec.md` delta.
+- **`tasks.md` §11.11** (in the originating `verification-tier-policy` change): this proposal delivers the follow-up captured there; §11.11 can be closed after this merges.
+- **No user-facing or published package changes.** Internal tooling only. Affects inner-loop dev + CI run reliability; does NOT affect any consumer of published `@animus-ui/*` packages.
+- **Prerequisite**: `verification-tier-policy` must be merged + archived before this proposal's MODIFIED sections can validate against `openspec/specs/verification-tier-policy/spec.md`. Expected sequencing: `verification-tier-policy` merges (CI in flight at time of proposal) → this change validates → implementation → merge → then `legacy-package-archival` and `e2e-workspace-topology` land in their pre-planned order.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Atomic Tier Isolation
+
+Every atomic tier SHALL execute its single concern in isolation. An atomic tier MUST NOT silently trigger upstream builds. An atomic tier MUST begin with a shell precondition block that exits with a non-zero status and a human-readable instruction identifying the missing upstream artifact and the exact command to produce it.
+
+The atomic tiers defined by this policy are: `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:canary`, `verify:integration`, `verify:build:next`, `verify:build:showcase`, `verify:assert:next`, `verify:assert:showcase`.
+
+Atomic tier preconditions SHALL be derived from the actual script each tier invokes (what the tier reads at runtime), not from generic "TS built" assumptions. In particular:
+
+- `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:rust` have **no upstream artifact preconditions** — they operate on source.
+- `verify:unit:ts` operates on source via `bun test`'s on-the-fly transpilation — no `dist/` precondition.
+- `verify:canary` requires only a fresh NAPI binary; it does NOT require `packages/extract/dist/` or any other package's `dist/`.
+- `verify:integration` requires a fresh NAPI binary AND a fresh `packages/extract/dist/index.mjs` (mtime newer than `packages/extract/src/**`) AND a fresh `packages/system/dist/` (mtime newer than `packages/system/src/**`) — `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` and `@animus-ui/system` are both resolved via dist at test time.
+- `verify:build:next` requires a fresh NAPI binary AND fresh `packages/extract/dist/` AND fresh `packages/system/dist/` AND fresh `packages/next-plugin/dist/` (each mtime newer than its own package's `src/**`). The bundler invokes the Next plugin at build time and consumer code resolves `@animus-ui/system` through dist.
+- `verify:build:showcase` requires a fresh NAPI binary AND fresh `packages/extract/dist/` AND fresh `packages/system/dist/` AND fresh `packages/vite-plugin/dist/` AND fresh `packages/properties/dist/` (each mtime newer than its own package's `src/**`). The showcase resolves all four packages through dist.
+- `verify:assert:next` requires `packages/next-test-app/.next/` (post-migration path: `e2e/next-app/.next/`) build output.
+- `verify:assert:showcase` requires `packages/showcase/dist/` build output.
+
+For any tier that consumes a package's `dist/` at runtime, the precondition SHALL check BOTH existence AND freshness (mtime comparison against that package's `src/**`). An existence-only check that accepts a stale dist SHALL be treated as incorrect — it will silently pass tiers against outdated types or code.
+
+#### Scenario: Missing NAPI binary surfaces as precondition failure
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:canary` with no `packages/extract/*.node` file present
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr includes the exact message "ERROR: NAPI binary missing. Run: bun run build:extract" (or equivalent identifying the required upstream command)
+
+#### Scenario: Stale NAPI binary surfaces as precondition failure
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:canary` with a `.node` file older than the newest `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` source file
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr identifies the binary as stale and includes the command `bun run build:extract`
+
+#### Scenario: Present upstream artifact allows tier to run
+- **WHEN** the fresh NAPI binary is present
+- **AND** the developer runs `verify:canary`
+- **THEN** the canary tests execute without any build step being re-run by the tier itself
+
+#### Scenario: Tier does not rebuild upstream silently
+- **WHEN** `verify:integration` is invoked with `packages/extract/dist/` missing
+- **THEN** the tier exits with a precondition failure identifying `bun run build:ts` (or `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build:ts`) as the required upstream
+- **AND** the tier does NOT invoke the build itself
+
+#### Scenario: Source-reading tier has no artifact precondition
+- **WHEN** `verify:compile` or `verify:types` or `verify:unit:ts` runs
+- **THEN** the tier does NOT fail on missing `dist/` artifacts (because it reads source, not `dist/`)
+- **AND** any precondition the script emits is limited to actual runtime inputs (e.g., `bun install` has been run)
+
+#### Scenario: Stale consumer-facing package dist surfaces as precondition failure
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:build:next` with `packages/system/dist/index.d.ts` older than `packages/system/src/**` source files
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr identifies `packages/system/dist/` as stale and includes the command `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts`
+- **AND** the Next build does NOT run against the stale dist
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-dependency staleness check short-circuits on first failure
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:build:showcase` with BOTH `packages/system/dist/` and `packages/vite-plugin/dist/` stale
+- **THEN** the script exits 1 at the first stale-dist check it encounters
+- **AND** stderr identifies the first-detected stale package (either one, but only one)
+- **AND** the showcase build does NOT run
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Dist Freshness Precondition Pattern
+
+Any atomic tier whose precondition depends on a downstream package's `dist/` directory SHALL check BOTH existence AND freshness using the same shell pattern established by the NAPI binary check: `ls` (or equivalent) for existence, and `find <src-dir> -newer <key-dist-artifact> -print -quit` for freshness. If either check fails, the precondition SHALL emit an `ERROR: <dist> missing/stale. Run: <fix-command>` message to stderr and exit non-zero.
+
+The `<key-dist-artifact>` for each TS package SHALL be resolved by probing `packages/<pkg>/dist/index.mjs` then `packages/<pkg>/dist/index.js` in order, taking the first file that exists. Both are valid published ESM entries — tsdown emits `.mjs` for some workspace packages (e.g., extract, vite-plugin, next-plugin) and `.js` for packages whose `package.json` declares `"type": "module"` (e.g., system, properties). If neither file exists, the dist SHALL be reported as missing. The `<src-dir>` for a TS package SHALL be `packages/<pkg>/src/**` matched against TypeScript source files (`*.ts`, `*.tsx`). For `packages/extract`, `<src-dir>` additionally covers `*.rs` files for the NAPI binary check.
+
+The `<fix-command>` SHALL be the canonical rebuild command for that package. For the NAPI binary: `bun run build:extract`. For a TS package `<pkg>`: `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/<pkg>' build:ts`.
+
+#### Scenario: Fresh-dist check fires on stale consumer dist
+- **WHEN** a tier precondition invokes the fresh-dist check for `packages/system`
+- **AND** `packages/system/src/types/config.ts` mtime is newer than the resolved key artifact (`packages/system/dist/index.js` per `system`'s current emission)
+- **THEN** the check exits 1 with message "ERROR: packages/system/dist/ is stale (src newer than dist). Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts"
+
+#### Scenario: Fresh-dist check passes when dist is fresh
+- **WHEN** a tier precondition invokes the fresh-dist check for `packages/system`
+- **AND** the resolved key artifact (`packages/system/dist/index.js` per `system`'s current emission) mtime is newer than every file under `packages/system/src/**`
+- **THEN** the check returns success and the tier's primary work proceeds
+
+#### Scenario: Fresh-dist check fires on missing dist
+- **WHEN** a tier precondition invokes the fresh-dist check for `packages/system`
+- **AND** `packages/system/dist/` does not exist (or neither `packages/system/dist/index.mjs` nor `packages/system/dist/index.js` is present)
+- **THEN** the check exits 1 with message "ERROR: packages/system/dist/ missing. Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts"
+
+### Requirement: Shared Precondition Helper Library
+
+A shared shell helper SHALL exist at `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` and SHALL be the single authoritative implementation of all atomic-tier precondition checks. Every atomic tier script SHALL source this helper and invoke named helper functions rather than inline precondition logic. Duplication of precondition logic across atomic tier scripts SHALL NOT exist once this helper is in place.
+
+The helper SHALL export at minimum these composable shell functions:
+
+- `require_bun_install` — checks that `node_modules/.bin/tsc` exists; on failure emits "ERROR: tsc binary not found at node_modules/.bin/tsc. Run: bun install" and exits 1.
+- `require_fresh_napi` — checks `packages/extract/*.node` existence AND mtime newer than every `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` source file; on failure emits the appropriate missing/stale message with fix command `bun run build:extract`.
+- `require_fresh_package_dist <pkg>` — checks the key dist artifact existence AND mtime freshness for the named workspace package; on failure emits the appropriate missing/stale message with fix command `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/<pkg>' build:ts`.
+- `require_dir <path> <fix_command>` — checks that `<path>` exists; on failure emits "ERROR: <path> missing. Run: <fix_command>" and exits 1.
+
+All helper functions SHALL emit errors to stderr and return exit code 1 on failure. The helper SHALL be sourced (not spawned as a subprocess) so the calling tier script inherits exit semantics. The helper SHALL have `set -euo pipefail`-compatible behavior — i.e., not rely on side effects that the caller's strict-mode settings would prevent.
+
+When this Requirement is implemented, the following existing tier scripts MUST be rewritten to call helper functions instead of containing inline precondition logic: `scripts/verify/canary.sh`, `scripts/verify/integration.sh`, `scripts/verify/build-next.sh`, `scripts/verify/build-showcase.sh`, `scripts/verify/assert-next.sh`, `scripts/verify/assert-showcase.sh`, `scripts/verify/compile.sh`, `scripts/verify/types.sh`. Source-only tier scripts (`verify:lint`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:unit:ts`) MAY source the helper for consistency even if they currently require no precondition calls.
+
+#### Scenario: Tier script sources the helper
+- **WHEN** a maintainer inspects any atomic tier script under `scripts/verify/`
+- **THEN** the script includes `source "$ROOT/scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh"` near the top
+- **AND** all precondition logic is expressed as `require_*` function calls
+- **AND** no inline `ls packages/extract/*.node` / `find -newer` patterns appear in the tier script itself
+
+#### Scenario: Helper is the one authoritative implementation
+- **WHEN** a maintainer greps `scripts/verify/*.sh` for inline `find -newer` patterns
+- **THEN** matches appear only within `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` — never in an individual tier script
+- **AND** editing the staleness-check logic requires updating exactly one file
+
+#### Scenario: Helper function emits actionable error message
+- **WHEN** `require_fresh_package_dist system` is called and `packages/system/dist/` is stale
+- **THEN** stderr contains a line matching "ERROR: packages/system/dist/ is stale (src newer than dist). Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts"
+- **AND** the calling script exits with status 1
+
+#### Scenario: Helper handles NAPI package specialization
+- **WHEN** `require_fresh_napi` is invoked and the NAPI binary is stale relative to Rust source
+- **THEN** the emitted error message uses the command `bun run build:extract` (not `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build:ts`)
+- **AND** the script exits with status 1

+      echo "ERROR: $target_path missing. Run: $fix_cmd" >&2
+      return 1
+    fi
+  }
+  ```
+- [x] 1.6 Add a file-level header comment to `_preconditions.sh` explaining: the file is meant to be sourced (not executed); callers MUST have `set -euo pipefail` in force; each function returns non-zero on failure and emits an actionable `ERROR: X. Run: Y` line to stderr.
+
+## 2. Rewrite Existing Atomic Tier Scripts to Use the Helper
+
+- [x] 2.1 Rewrite `scripts/verify/canary.sh`: source `_preconditions.sh`, replace inline NAPI check with `require_fresh_napi`.
+- [x] 2.2 Rewrite `scripts/verify/integration.sh`: source helper, call `require_fresh_napi && require_fresh_package_dist extract && require_fresh_package_dist system`.
+- [x] 2.3 Rewrite `scripts/verify/build-next.sh`: source helper, call `require_fresh_napi && require_fresh_package_dist extract && require_fresh_package_dist system && require_fresh_package_dist next-plugin`.
+- [x] 2.4 Rewrite `scripts/verify/build-showcase.sh`: source helper, call `require_fresh_napi && require_fresh_package_dist extract && require_fresh_package_dist system && require_fresh_package_dist vite-plugin && require_fresh_package_dist properties`.
+- [x] 2.5 Rewrite `scripts/verify/assert-next.sh`: source helper, call `require_dir packages/next-test-app/.next 'bun run verify:build:next'` (update path if `e2e-workspace-topology` has landed).
+- [x] 2.6 Rewrite `scripts/verify/assert-showcase.sh`: source helper, call `require_dir packages/showcase/dist 'bun run verify:build:showcase'`.
+- [x] 2.7 Rewrite `scripts/verify/compile.sh`: source helper, call `require_bun_install`.
+- [x] 2.8 Rewrite `scripts/verify/types.sh`: source helper, call `require_bun_install`.
+- [x] 2.9 Optionally source helper in `scripts/verify/lint.sh`, `scripts/verify/unit-rust.sh`, `scripts/verify/unit-ts.sh` for consistency even though they currently require no precondition calls. Skip if it adds more noise than value — tier scripts with no preconditions are allowed not to source the helper. **Decision: SKIPPED.** Zero-precondition tiers left untouched; sourcing a helper whose functions are never called adds noise without value, and `unit-rust.sh` cd's into `packages/extract` before running, so its `$ROOT`-relative sourcing would require extra plumbing. Helper is sourced only where a `require_*` call is made.
+- [x] 2.10 Ensure every rewritten script keeps `set -euo pipefail` and the self-locating `ROOT="$(cd "$(dirname "$0")/../.." && pwd)"; cd "$ROOT"` pattern at the top.
+- [x] 2.11 Grep `scripts/verify/*.sh` for the strings `find packages/extract/src` and `ls packages/*/dist/` — confirm matches appear only in `_preconditions.sh`.
+
+## 3. Validate Fail-Loud Behavior
+
+- [x] 3.1 With a fresh workspace (all dists built), run `bun run verify:full`; confirm green across all tiers. **Substituted**: `verify:full` end-to-end blocked by pre-existing `verify:assert:next` @layer gap (verification-tier-policy §11.8). Equivalent coverage via individual tiers: `verify` fast-gate ✓, `verify:integration` ✓, `verify:build:next` ✓, `verify:build:showcase` ✓, `verify:assert:showcase` ✓. `verify:assert:next` still deferred.
+- [x] 3.2 Delete `packages/extract/*.node`; run `bun run verify:canary`; confirm "ERROR: NAPI binary missing. Run: bun run build:extract" on stderr and exit code 1. **Verified**: exact message emitted, exit 1. Binary moved to /tmp and restored post-test (reversible).
+- [x] 3.3 Restore NAPI binary (`bun run build:extract`); `touch packages/extract/src/lib.rs`; run `bun run verify:canary`; confirm "ERROR: NAPI binary is stale" message. **Verified**: "ERROR: NAPI binary is stale (Rust source newer than .node). Run: bun run build:extract" emitted, exit 1.
+- [x] 3.4 Rebuild (`bun run build:extract`); touch `packages/system/src/types/config.ts`; run `bun run verify:build:next`; confirm "ERROR: packages/system/dist/ is stale (src newer than dist). Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts". **Verified**: exact message emitted, exit 1.
+- [x] 3.5 Rebuild system (`bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts`); delete `packages/system/dist/`; run `bun run verify:build:next`; confirm "ERROR: packages/system/dist/ missing" message. **Verified**: "ERROR: packages/system/dist/ missing. Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts" emitted, exit 1. dist moved to /tmp and restored.
+- [x] 3.6 Rebuild system; touch `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`; run `bun run verify:build:showcase`; confirm stale message identifies `vite-plugin`. **Verified**: "ERROR: packages/vite-plugin/dist/ is stale (src newer than dist). Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/vite-plugin' build:ts" emitted, exit 1.
+- [x] 3.7 Confirm short-circuit semantics: with BOTH `packages/system/dist/` stale AND `packages/vite-plugin/dist/` stale simultaneously, `verify:build:showcase` fails on the FIRST encountered stale check and does NOT enumerate both. **Verified**: script emits ONLY "ERROR: packages/system/dist/ is stale..." (system is earlier in the require_fresh_package_dist call order than vite-plugin). No vite-plugin message shown. Exit 1.
+- [x] 3.8 Full-sweep: `bun run verify:full` after restoring all dists; confirm end-to-end green. **Substituted** (same substitution as §3.1): `verify:full` blocked by pre-existing `verify:assert:next` @layer gap. Equivalent coverage via `verify:build:next` ✓, `verify:build:showcase` ✓, `verify:assert:showcase` ✓ confirmed green after freshness restoration. `assert:next` deferred.
+
+## 4. Update Spec + Documentation
+
+- [x] 4.1 Confirm `specs/verification-tier-policy/spec.md` in this change captures the three changes: MODIFIED "Atomic Tier Isolation" (extended precondition list + dist-freshness rule), ADDED "Dist Freshness Precondition Pattern", ADDED "Shared Precondition Helper Library". (Done during propose phase; sanity check before apply.) **Verified**: all three present. Additionally amended during apply to reflect probe-order reality (`.mjs` → `.js`). `openspec validate --strict` clean after amendment.
+- [x] 4.2 Update root `CLAUDE.md` § Verification Tiers to note the generalized staleness contract — specifically extend the "Upstream requires" column for `verify:integration`, `verify:build:next`, `verify:build:showcase`, `verify:next`, `verify:showcase` with the per-package dist checks so the table matches the new script behavior. **Done**: atomic tier rows updated with explicit per-package fresh dist list; "Fails loud when" column extended to "NAPI or any upstream dist missing/stale". Composite rows (`verify:next`, `verify:showcase`) unchanged — their preconditions cascade from atomic tiers automatically.
+- [x] 4.3 Close out `openspec/changes/archive/2026-04-13-verification-tier-policy/tasks.md` §11.11 as done-by-follow-up (noting that this change delivers it). **Done**: §11.11 flipped to `[x]` with "→ DONE-BY-FOLLOWUP" tag referencing this change.
+- [x] 4.4 No per-package CLAUDE.md updates required — tier-specific text lives only in root.
+
+## 5. Validation
+
+- [x] 5.1 `openspec validate dist-staleness-preconditions --strict` — clean. **Re-run post-amendment**: valid.
+- [x] 5.2 `bun run verify` (fast gate) — green. **Verified**: lint + compile + types + unit:ts + unit:rust (254 pass) + canary (192 pass, 4 snapshots).
+- [x] 5.3 `bun run verify:full` — green (catches the full dependency graph). **Substituted** (same substitution as §3.1 / §3.8): `verify:full` blocked by pre-existing `verify:assert:next` @layer gap. All other tiers green; new preconditions exercised and passed.
+- [ ] 5.4 Push branch, observe CI; confirm CI `verify` job still green with the generalized preconditions.
+
+## 6. Post-Merge Follow-Ups
+
+- [ ] 6.1 After this change merges, re-solicit the 5 reviewer personas (Release Eng, DX/Agent, Test Infra Skeptic, Monorepo Topology, OpenSpec Steward) per `feedback_reviewer_personas.md` — narrow focus to the helper library's API surface and the precondition-accuracy audit.
+- [ ] 6.2 Consider a Tier-3 follow-up to enumerate ALL simultaneous staleness failures before exit (vs current short-circuit). Low priority; short-circuit covers 90%+ of cases.
+- [ ] 6.3 Evaluate adding transitive staleness checks (e.g., `verify:build:showcase` checking `packages/core` indirectly if system depends on it) — likely unnecessary given `bun run build:ts` runs packages in dependency order, but worth a follow-up audit.

+## Context
+
+After `legacy-package-archival` lands, `packages/` still conflates three purposes:
+
+1. **Publishable**: `properties, system, extract, vite-plugin, next-plugin` — what ships to npm.
+2. **Deep-internal private**: `_integration` (JS↔NAPI integration), `test-ds` (shared test DS), `_assertions` (new — shared assertion utilities), `showcase` (live docs/showcase app).
+3. **Consumer fixture apps**: `next-test-app` (currently) — a fully built Next.js app whose purpose is to prove the `next-plugin` extraction pipeline end-to-end against built output.
+
+The third purpose is distinct from the second: consumer fixtures are **whole-app build targets** whose test surface is "build → assert against output," not "run bun test." They exercise the real bundler integration in the real way a consumer would use it. Putting them next to publishable and deep-internal packages makes it structurally ambiguous which category a new entrant belongs to.
+
+A new Vite-based consumer fixture is queued in `integration-test-infrastructure`. Adding it to `packages/` alongside `next-test-app` perpetuates the conflation. Better: carve out `e2e/` now, migrate `next-app`, establish the convention, and let the subsequent work land into clean structure.
+
+The `packages/_assertions/` scaffold is created in this change (without content) because assertion utilities are imported from BOTH `packages/*` post-build scripts (e.g., `scripts/assert-showcase.sh` will eventually call TS utilities) AND `e2e/*` fixtures. If the utilities lived in `e2e/shared/`, then `packages/showcase` post-build would have to import across the one-way boundary. Putting them in `packages/_assertions/` keeps imports flowing top-down (from e2e into packages), which is permitted.
+
+Current state (April 2026, session 72; after `legacy-package-archival`):
+- `packages/` contains 9 active workspaces.
+- `e2e/` does not exist.
+- `packages/next-test-app` has ~7 components, imports from `@animus-ui/test-ds`, has its own `ds.ts`, and has a `scripts/assert-next-build.sh` post-build assertion script.
+- Root `package.json` `test:next` script invokes `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/next-test-app' build && bash packages/next-test-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh`.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- `e2e/` directory exists at repo root as the home for consumer fixture applications.
+- `next-test-app` relocates to `e2e/next-app` with git-rename history preservation.
+- `packages/_assertions/` scaffold exists as the shared home for assertion utilities, importable top-down from `e2e/*` into `packages/*`.
+- One-way dependency rule is documented: `e2e/*` MAY import `packages/*`; neither imports from `legacy/*`; `packages/*` MUST NOT import from `e2e/*`.
+- Root `CLAUDE.md` `## Workspace Topology` section documents the three-directory convention authoritatively.
+- Verification tier scripts (`verify:build:next`, `verify:assert:next`) continue to work after the move; they reference the new path.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Creating the new Vite-based fixture (`e2e/vite-app`). That is `integration-test-infrastructure`.
+- Populating `packages/_assertions/` with actual utilities. Scaffold only.
+- Rewriting assertion scripts from shell to TS. Also `integration-test-infrastructure`.
+- Adding CI topology changes (separate `verify-e2e` job). Deferred until e2e has enough content to justify parallelization.
+- Enforcing the one-way dependency rule via CI check. Queued as follow-up; this change documents the rule but does not automate it.
+- Moving `showcase` to `e2e/showcase`. `showcase` is more than a fixture — it is the live documentation surface and has its own publish-adjacent positioning (deployed to Netlify). It stays in `packages/`.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: `e2e/` directory name (not `fixtures/`, `apps/`, `sandboxes/`)
+
+The new top-level directory is named `e2e/`.
+
+**Rationale**: "E2E" (end-to-end) accurately describes the test category — consumer fixture apps test the whole pipeline end-to-end (DS definition → bundler integration → built output → assertions). The alternatives each have specific problems:
+
+- `fixtures/`: too generic. Fixtures can also be test inputs, data files, golden outputs. Reserving the word for whole-app fixtures would be confusing.
+- `apps/`: implies runnable/shippable apps. These apps are build-asserted, not shipped.
+- `sandboxes/`: matches Panda CSS convention (their `sandbox/` directory has 17 demo apps), but Panda's sandboxes are demos, not test targets. Different purpose.
+- `examples/`: suggests user-facing example code. These are internal verification targets.
+
+**Alternatives considered**: all above; `e2e-fixtures/` (too long); `consumer/` (ambiguous).
+
+### Decision 2: `next-app` (not `next-test-app`) as the new directory name
+
+After the move, the directory is `e2e/next-app`, not `e2e/next-test-app`.
+
+**Rationale**: within `e2e/`, every entry is already understood to be a test app. `next-test-app` doubles the redundancy (`test-app` + `e2e/`). Consistent naming for future entries: `e2e/next-app`, `e2e/vite-app`, `e2e/webpack-app` (hypothetical), etc. — bundler-keyed short names.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Keep `next-test-app` for continuity: adds friction on every future reference for unclear benefit.
+- `next-fixture`: fine but breaks the "app" naming that communicates "this is a built application."
+
+### Decision 3: `packages/_assertions/` location, not `e2e/assertions/`
+
+The shared assertion utilities workspace lives at `packages/_assertions/`, following the `packages/_*` underscore-prefix convention for internal-not-published.
+
+**Rationale**: assertion utilities are consumed by:
+- `scripts/assert-showcase.sh` post-build for `packages/showcase` (when rewritten to TS in `integration-test-infrastructure`)
+- `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh` post-build (when rewritten to TS)
+- `e2e/vite-app/scripts/assert-vite-build.sh` (new, in `integration-test-infrastructure`)
+- Future post-build assertion scripts for any consumer
+
+Imports must flow top-down: higher-level consumers (`e2e/*`) import from lower-level infrastructure (`packages/*`). If assertions lived in `e2e/assertions/`, then `scripts/assert-showcase.sh` (which belongs to `packages/showcase`'s build) would have to import from `e2e/*` — violating the one-way rule.
+
+Placing in `packages/_assertions/` keeps all imports legal.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- `e2e/shared/` or `e2e/assertions/`: breaks one-way rule for `packages/showcase` post-build. Rejected.
+- Add to `packages/_integration/src/assertions/`: conflates JS↔NAPI integration-test scope with a shared utility library. `_integration` is for integration tests; `_assertions` is for shared utilities. Separate concerns.
+- Standalone unscoped location (e.g., `shared/`): misses the workspace-package benefits (named import `@animus-ui/assertions`, `workspace:*` resolution).
+
+### Decision 4: Scaffold only, no content in this change
+
+`packages/_assertions/` ships with empty `src/index.ts`, standard `tsdown` + `tsc` build scripts, and a minimal `package.json`. No actual assertion utilities yet.
+
+**Rationale**: keep this change tightly scoped to topology. Utilities land in `integration-test-infrastructure` where they're needed for the new Vite-app fixture and the shell→TS assertion script rewrite.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Include initial utilities (e.g., a `layerOrder()` positional assertion): fine but expands scope. Defer.
+
+### Decision 5: Keep workspaces array explicit (no glob conversion yet)
+
+The workspaces array remains an explicit list. Entries for `e2e/next-app` and `packages/_assertions` are added; `packages/next-test-app` is removed.
+
+**Rationale**: glob expansion (`packages/*` + `e2e/*`) is a simpler final state but requires confidence that every directory under those globs is workspace-eligible. In particular, `packages/_graveyard` — if created — would accidentally be included by `packages/*`. Since `legacy-package-archival` already moves legacy out of `packages/`, the glob is safer than before, but explicit listing still avoids the risk of future accidental inclusion.
+
+If the maintainer prefers glob now, this is a one-line change in this same edit. Call-out in Open Questions.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Convert to `["packages/*", "e2e/*"]`: simpler. Weigh against accidental-inclusion risk. Addressed in Open Questions.
+
+### Decision 6: `test:next` script path update + package rename
+
+Root `package.json` script name stays `test:next` (keeps the convenient alias stable). The internal path updates from `packages/next-test-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh` to `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh`. Additionally, the package identity renames from `@animus-ui/next-test-app` to `@animus-ui/next-app` so the directory path and package name agree — the `test:next` `--filter` target updates to match.
+
+**Rationale**: keeping `test:next` as a script name avoids churn across CI/local/doc surfaces. Renaming the *package* to match the directory resolves the path↔name mismatch that two independent review personas flagged as a known agent-confusion vector ("is it `bun run --filter @animus-ui/next-app` or `@animus-ui/next-test-app`?"). Package name is an internal concern (the package is private — never published), so the rename cost is one `package.json` edit + root filter update.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Keep `@animus-ui/next-test-app` package identity: preserves zero-friction on import paths (there are none — it's a leaf), but the directory/name mismatch is real friction for filter commands and mental model.
+- Rename `test:next` script to `test:next-app` or tier-only `verify:next`: unnecessary churn across documentation and CI for no gain.
+
+### Decision 7: No CI topology change in this commit
+
+CI jobs continue with their existing shape (`lint | test-rust | build-extract → verify → release`). `verify` still runs (with tier structure from `verification-tier-policy` once that change lands). `test:next` is already not in CI (preexisting gap); this change does not add it.
+
+**Rationale**: pure topology change. Adding `test:next` to CI or splitting verify into verify-e2e is a separable concern, rightly owned by `integration-test-infrastructure` when the vite-app fixture needs its own CI coverage.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Add `verify:build:next && verify:assert:next` to CI verify job now: creeps scope. Rejected.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] A reference to `packages/next-test-app/` is missed during the path-rename sweep → Mitigation**: grep the repo for the string `next-test-app` and `@animus-ui/next-test-app` before commit. Any orphan reference will surface as a broken test or import at verification time.
+
+**[Risk] `packages/_assertions/` sitting empty is ambiguous — is it abandoned or under construction? → Mitigation**: its CLAUDE.md explicitly says "Scaffold only. Utilities added in `integration-test-infrastructure`." No ambiguity if read.
+
+**[Risk] One-way dependency rule documented but not enforced → Accepted for now**: CI enforcement queued as follow-up. The `verification-tier-policy` change's `verify:compile` tier will surface any actual cross-boundary import as a TS compile error since the paths won't resolve.
+
+**[Risk] Glob conversion question lingers as open → Accepted**: leaving the workspaces array explicit is safe; glob conversion can land in this change (if maintainer prefers) or later. Either way the convention of "only `packages/*` or `e2e/*` paths" is clear.
+
+**[Trade-off] One more top-level directory (`e2e/`) → Accepted**: the cognitive gain (three clear categories) exceeds the cost (one more entry in `ls`).
+
+**[Trade-off] `git mv` creates a large rename in the commit → Accepted**: standard cost of any directory rename. Review is straightforward since the content is unchanged.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+1. **Pre-check**: confirm `legacy-package-archival` is merged (this change references the one-way independence rule it establishes).
+2. **Create `e2e/` directory**: `mkdir e2e` (or let the `git mv` implicitly create it).
+3. **Move next-test-app**: `git mv packages/next-test-app e2e/next-app`.
+4. **Scaffold `packages/_assertions/`**:
+   - Create `packages/_assertions/package.json` with name `@animus-ui/assertions`, `private: true`, minimal build scripts.
+   - Create `packages/_assertions/src/index.ts` with an empty export.
+   - Create `packages/_assertions/tsconfig.json` and `tsconfig.build.json` following the pattern of other private packages.
+   - Create `packages/_assertions/CLAUDE.md` noting scaffold-only status.
+5. **Update root `package.json`**: remove `packages/next-test-app` from workspaces; add `e2e/next-app` and `packages/_assertions`. Update `test:next` script path.
+6. **Update root `CLAUDE.md`**: add `## Workspace Topology` section.
+7. **Sweep references**: grep for `packages/next-test-app` and `@animus-ui/next-test-app`; update remaining occurrences in per-package CLAUDE.md and scripts where appropriate.
+8. **Verify locally**: `bun install && bun run verify:full` (using tier structure from `verification-tier-policy` once applied). Expect green.
+9. **Push + CI**: confirm all jobs pass.
+10. **Merge**.
+
+Rollback: revert the commit. Directory moves and workspace-array edits undo cleanly.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- **Glob conversion now or later?** Leaning: **later** (keep explicit). Enables a cleaner review and preserves the safety buffer against accidental inclusion. If maintainer prefers glob now, trivial to flip in this change — `"workspaces": ["packages/*", "e2e/*"]` replaces the explicit list.
+- **Does `packages/_assertions` need its own initial CLAUDE.md or defer to the assertion-library-focused spec in `integration-test-infrastructure`?** Leaning: minimal CLAUDE.md in this change ("scaffold only, see integration-test-infrastructure for content roadmap"); full CLAUDE.md with library guidance when utilities land.
+- **Should `test:next` root script be renamed to align with tier naming (`verify:build:next && verify:assert:next`)?** Leaning: no rename in this change. `test:next` is a convenient composite alias. Tier-named scripts still work; both are available.
+- **Should `showcase` also move to `e2e/showcase`?** Leaning: no — `showcase` is more than a fixture; it is deployed, has external consumers (hosted docs), and its build serves double-duty as both verification and product. Keep in `packages/`.

+## Why
+
+The Animus monorepo currently mixes publishable packages, deep-internal private packages (`_integration`, `test-ds`, `showcase`), and consumer test apps (`next-test-app`) all under `packages/`. This conflates three distinct purposes: **what ships**, **what verifies the pipeline**, and **what proves consumer-build behavior**. Adding a new consumer test fixture (Vite-based, planned in `integration-test-infrastructure`) into `packages/` continues the conflation and invites accidental additions to the publish graph.
+
+This change introduces `e2e/` as a top-level directory sibling to `packages/` and `legacy/`. Consumer fixture applications (where the test surface is "a whole built app, asserted against positional output") live in `e2e/`. `packages/next-test-app` migrates to `e2e/next-app`. A new `packages/_assertions/` private workspace is scaffolded as the shared home for assertion utilities importable from both `packages/*` post-build scripts and `e2e/*` fixtures. This preserves the one-way dependency rule established in `legacy-package-archival` and prepares a clean home for subsequent integration-test work.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Create `e2e/` directory at repository root**, sibling to `packages/`, `legacy/`, `scripts/`, `openspec/`.
+- **Migrate `packages/next-test-app` → `e2e/next-app`** via `git mv`. Update:
+  - Root `package.json` `workspaces` array: remove `packages/next-test-app`, add `e2e/next-app`.
+  - **Rename the package identity** from `@animus-ui/next-test-app` to `@animus-ui/next-app` so directory path and package name agree. Path ≠ name mismatches are a known agent-confusion pattern; two independent reviewers flagged this.
+  - Root `package.json` `test:next` script: update path from `packages/next-test-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh` to `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh`; update the `--filter` target from `@animus-ui/next-test-app` to `@animus-ui/next-app`.
+  - Any per-package `CLAUDE.md` or doc reference to `packages/next-test-app/` → `e2e/next-app/` and `@animus-ui/next-test-app` → `@animus-ui/next-app`.
+- **Create `packages/_assertions/` as a new private workspace package** (`@animus-ui/assertions`). Scaffold only — empty `src/index.ts`, `package.json` with `private: true` and `@animus-ui/properties` / `@animus-ui/system` workspace deps as needed, standard `tsdown` + `tsc -p tsconfig.build.json` build scripts. No content; consumers add utilities as they're needed.
+- **Register `packages/_assertions/` in workspaces array**. It's a `packages/` inhabitant following the `_` prefix convention (internal, not published).
+- **Update root `CLAUDE.md`**: add `## Workspace Topology` section documenting the three-directory convention (`packages/`, `e2e/`, `legacy/`) and the one-way dependency rule (`e2e/*` may import `packages/*`; `packages/*` MUST NOT import `e2e/*`; neither may import `legacy/*`).
+- **Update `verification-tier-policy` Change-Type Map and Verification Tier Table** (already in root CLAUDE.md from that change) to reference the new path for next-app: `e2e/next-app` instead of `packages/next-test-app`.
+- **No CI topology changes in this change**. `verify:build:next` and `verify:assert:next` tiers continue to run as before, now pointing at the new path.
+- **No vite-app fixture creation in this change**. The new Vite-based consumer test app is the subject of the separate `integration-test-infrastructure` change and depends on this topology landing first.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `e2e-workspace-convention`: what `e2e/` is, what belongs there (consumer fixture applications whose test surface is a whole built app), the one-way dependency rule across `packages/ | e2e/ | legacy/`, the naming convention for `e2e/*` workspaces, documentation location.
+- `shared-assertions-scaffold`: the `packages/_assertions/` private workspace purpose (shared assertion utilities for post-build and E2E tests), its `@animus-ui/assertions` package identity, the importability rule (importable from both `packages/*` post-build scripts and `e2e/*` fixtures), scaffold-only initial state.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `next-test-app-structure`: the existing spec describes `packages/next-test-app/` structure. This change relocates to `e2e/next-app/`; the spec requirements apply to the new path. Header and references updated.
+- `bun-workspace`: workspaces array now includes `e2e/next-app` and `packages/_assertions` entries. The `legacy-package-archival` change already modifies this spec; this change adds to it.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **File moves**: `packages/next-test-app/` → `e2e/next-app/` via `git mv`. History preserved as rename.
+- **New directory**: `packages/_assertions/` created with minimal scaffold (package.json, src/index.ts, tsconfig.json, tsconfig.build.json, CLAUDE.md).
+- **Root `package.json`**: workspaces array edited (remove one entry, add two entries). `test:next` script path updated.
+- **Root `CLAUDE.md`**: new `## Workspace Topology` section.
+- **Per-package `CLAUDE.md`** references to `packages/next-test-app/` (if any) updated to `e2e/next-app/`.
+- **No source code changes**. Components, tests, and fixtures inside the moved directory are unchanged.
+- **No publish-graph changes**. `packages/_assertions` is private; `e2e/next-app` is private.
+- **Change-Type Map row** (in root CLAUDE.md, installed by `verification-tier-policy`) for `packages/next-plugin/src/**` path target updates to use `verify:build:next && verify:assert:next` with the understanding that these tiers point at the new `e2e/next-app` location internally.
+- **Rediscoverability**: `ls e2e/` shows consumer fixture apps distinctly from publishable packages. Root topology becomes self-explanatory: `packages/` (ships or deeply internal), `e2e/` (consumer proof), `legacy/` (archived).
+- **Prerequisite for**: `integration-test-infrastructure` — that change adds `e2e/vite-app` fixture, structural assertion utilities inside `packages/_assertions/src/`, plugin self-verify option, manifest completeness tests, and storedSheets investigation. It assumes this topology exists.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Bun workspace script execution
+The monorepo SHALL use Bun's native workspace features for running scripts across packages. No dedicated orchestration tool (NX, Lerna, Turborepo) SHALL be required.
+
+The workspace SHALL include active packages from `packages/` and consumer fixture apps from `e2e/`. It SHALL exclude packages located under `legacy/` at the repository root. `bun run build` SHALL build only packages present in the root `package.json` `workspaces` array.
+
+#### Scenario: Run build across active packages
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run build` from the root
+- **THEN** all active workspace packages (from `packages/` and `e2e/`) are built in dependency order
+- **AND** no package under `legacy/` is built
+
+#### Scenario: Run script in specific active package
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter @animus-ui/system build`
+- **THEN** only the `packages/system` build script executes
+
+#### Scenario: Filter resolves e2e workspace member
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter @animus-ui/next-app build`
+- **THEN** bun resolves the `@animus-ui/next-app` workspace to its location under `e2e/next-app/`
+- **AND** only that build script executes
+
+#### Scenario: Filter does not resolve legacy packages
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter @animus-ui/core build`
+- **THEN** bun reports no matching workspace (since `@animus-ui/core` resides under `legacy/` and is excluded from the workspace graph)
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Workspace Array Includes e2e Paths
+
+The root `package.json` `workspaces` array SHALL include entries (either explicit paths or via glob expansion) for `e2e/*` consumer fixture applications. At minimum, after this change, the array SHALL include `e2e/next-app`.
+
+#### Scenario: e2e entry present
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the root `package.json` `workspaces` field
+- **THEN** an entry covers `e2e/next-app` (either as an explicit `e2e/next-app` string or via a `e2e/*` glob)
+
+### Requirement: Workspace Array Includes Shared Assertions Scaffold
+
+The root `package.json` `workspaces` array SHALL include `packages/_assertions` (either as an explicit entry or via a `packages/*` glob). `@animus-ui/assertions` MUST be workspace-resolvable so consumers can import it via `workspace:*` dependency specifiers.
+
+#### Scenario: Assertions scaffold entry present
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the root `package.json` `workspaces` field
+- **THEN** an entry covers `packages/_assertions`
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace resolution for assertions
+
+- **WHEN** another workspace declares `"@animus-ui/assertions": "workspace:*"` in its dependencies
+- **THEN** `bun install` symlinks `node_modules/@animus-ui/assertions` to `packages/_assertions`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: e2e Directory Location
+
+The repository SHALL contain an `e2e/` directory at the repository root, sibling to `packages/`, `legacy/`, `scripts/`, and `openspec/`. The `e2e/` directory SHALL hold consumer fixture applications whose test surface is a whole built app asserted against positional output.
+
+#### Scenario: e2e is a top-level sibling
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer lists the repository root
+- **THEN** `e2e/` appears as a top-level directory alongside `packages/`, `legacy/`, `scripts/`, `openspec/`
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer fixture apps reside under e2e
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer locates consumer fixture apps (e.g., `next-app`, and in future changes `vite-app`)
+- **THEN** they are found under `e2e/<name>/`, not `packages/<name>/`
+
+### Requirement: What Belongs in e2e
+
+A package SHALL reside under `e2e/` if and only if it meets all of the following criteria:
+
+- It is a runnable application (Next.js, Vite, webpack, or equivalent), not a library.
+- Its test surface is "build the app, assert properties of the built output" — not `bun test`.
+- It exists to verify consumer-bundler integration or end-to-end pipeline behavior, not to ship to users.
+- It is `private: true`.
+
+Packages that are libraries (even private test-only ones like `test-ds` or `_assertions`) remain in `packages/`. Packages that are shipping applications (`showcase` if its primary purpose becomes deployment) remain in `packages/` at maintainer discretion.
+
+#### Scenario: next-app qualifies
+
+- **WHEN** evaluating `e2e/next-app`
+- **THEN** it meets all criteria: Next.js application, asserted via shell/TS post-build assertions, exists to verify `next-plugin` extraction, `private: true`
+
+#### Scenario: test-ds does NOT qualify
+
+- **WHEN** evaluating `packages/test-ds`
+- **THEN** it fails the first criterion (it is a library, not a runnable app) and therefore remains in `packages/`
+
+#### Scenario: showcase remains in packages
+
+- **WHEN** evaluating `packages/showcase`
+- **THEN** it is a runnable Vite application AND asserted via post-build AND verifies bundler integration — however, it is also the deployed documentation site with external consumers (Netlify). Placement is at maintainer discretion; current decision is to keep it in `packages/` because deployment purpose dominates.
+
+### Requirement: e2e Workspace Naming Convention
+
+Directories under `e2e/` SHALL use bundler-keyed short names of the form `<bundler>-app` when the primary distinguishing concern is the bundler (e.g., `next-app`, `vite-app`, `webpack-app`). When the distinguishing concern is different (e.g., a specific feature being exercised), descriptive names SHALL be used.
+
+The naming convention avoids redundancy with the `e2e/` parent (no `e2e/next-test-app` or `e2e/next-e2e-app`).
+
+#### Scenario: Bundler-keyed names
+
+- **WHEN** an `e2e/*` directory is named
+- **THEN** bundler-specific fixtures use `<bundler>-app` (e.g., `next-app`, `vite-app`)
+
+#### Scenario: No redundant prefixes
+
+- **WHEN** an `e2e/*` directory is named
+- **THEN** it does NOT contain `e2e`, `test`, or `fixture` as prefix/suffix (since `e2e/` already conveys this)
+
+### Requirement: One-Way Dependency Rule
+
+Source code in `e2e/*` MAY import from `packages/*`. Source code in `packages/*` MUST NOT import from `e2e/*`. Source code in `packages/*` and `e2e/*` MUST NOT import from `legacy/*`.
+
+This rule mirrors the publish boundary: `packages/*` is the publish graph (plus deep-internal private packages); `e2e/*` is downstream verification infrastructure. Dependencies flow top-down (consumer direction).
+
+#### Scenario: e2e imports packages
+
+- **WHEN** a file in `e2e/next-app/src/` imports `@animus-ui/system`
+- **THEN** the import is permitted (top-down, consumer direction)
+
+#### Scenario: packages does NOT import e2e
+
+- **WHEN** a file in `packages/system/src/` attempts to import from `e2e/next-app/`
+- **THEN** the import is forbidden by this rule
+- **AND** review SHOULD reject the change
+
+#### Scenario: Neither imports legacy
+
+- **WHEN** a file in `packages/` or `e2e/` imports from any `legacy/` path or any `@animus-ui/<archived-name>`
+- **THEN** the import is forbidden by the `legacy-directory-topology` spec's one-way independence rule
+
+### Requirement: Root CLAUDE.md Documents Workspace Topology
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL contain a `## Workspace Topology` section describing the three-directory convention:
+
+- `packages/` — publishable packages + deep-internal private packages (`_integration`, `_assertions`, `test-ds`, `showcase`)
+- `e2e/` — consumer fixture applications (build + assert post-build)
+- `legacy/` — archived packages preserved for reference only
+
+The section SHALL state the one-way dependency rule.
+
+#### Scenario: Agent reads workspace topology
+
+- **WHEN** an agent loads root `CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** a `## Workspace Topology` section describes the three directories
+- **AND** the one-way dependency rule is stated explicitly
+
+### Requirement: e2e Directory Initial Contents
+
+After this change is applied, `e2e/` SHALL contain exactly one subdirectory: `next-app/`, migrated from `packages/next-test-app/` via `git mv`.
+
+Additional `e2e/*` directories (e.g., `vite-app`) MAY be added in subsequent changes.
+
+#### Scenario: next-app is the initial member
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer lists `e2e/`
+- **THEN** `next-app/` is the only subdirectory immediately after this change

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Shared Assertions Workspace Package
+
+A private workspace package SHALL exist at `packages/_assertions/` with the name `@animus-ui/assertions`. It SHALL be the shared home for assertion utilities importable by both post-build scripts (in `packages/*`) and consumer fixture apps (in `e2e/*`).
+
+#### Scenario: Package exists and is private
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer inspects `packages/_assertions/package.json`
+- **THEN** the name field is `@animus-ui/assertions`
+- **AND** `private: true` is set
+- **AND** no `publishConfig.access: public` is present
+
+#### Scenario: Registered in workspaces
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the root `package.json` `workspaces` array
+- **THEN** `packages/_assertions` is present (or resolved via a `packages/*` glob)
+
+### Requirement: Underscore-Prefix Convention Alignment
+
+`packages/_assertions/` SHALL follow the `packages/_*` underscore-prefix convention that denotes internal-not-published packages, joining `packages/_integration/`. Any new internal-not-published workspace package under `packages/` SHALL use the underscore prefix to maintain the convention.
+
+#### Scenario: Prefix indicates internal
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer encounters `packages/_assertions/`
+- **THEN** the underscore prefix signals internal-not-published by convention
+- **AND** the `private: true` flag confirms the signal
+
+### Requirement: Initial Scaffold Contents
+
+Immediately after this change is applied, `packages/_assertions/` SHALL contain:
+
+- `package.json` — name, private flag, build scripts (`tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json`), dependencies as needed (likely `@animus-ui/properties` `workspace:*`, optionally `@animus-ui/system` `workspace:*`)
+- `src/index.ts` — a scaffold file containing a header comment and a near-empty export barrel (see Scaffold Header Banner requirement)
+- `tsconfig.json` and `tsconfig.build.json` following the pattern of other private packages
+- `CLAUDE.md` — a short note stating the scaffold-only status and pointing to `integration-test-infrastructure` as the change that populates the package
+
+No actual assertion utility code SHALL be added in this change.
+
+#### Scenario: Scaffold present, no content
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer inspects `packages/_assertions/src/`
+- **THEN** `index.ts` exists
+- **AND** it contains only an empty export or a single placeholder export
+- **AND** no assertion utility functions are yet defined
+
+#### Scenario: Scaffold CLAUDE.md explains status
+
+- **WHEN** an agent reads `packages/_assertions/CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** the file states "Scaffold only" and references `integration-test-infrastructure` as the source of forthcoming content
+
+### Requirement: Scaffold Header Banner
+
+`packages/_assertions/src/index.ts` SHALL begin with a header comment naming the package's scaffold-only status and directing readers to the package `CLAUDE.md` and the `integration-test-infrastructure` change. The header MUST appear before any export statement. This closes the rediscovery gap for agents who encounter the file without reading the neighboring `CLAUDE.md`.
+
+#### Scenario: Header comment present
+
+- **WHEN** an agent reads `packages/_assertions/src/index.ts`
+- **THEN** the first non-blank content is a comment identifying the file as scaffold-only AND referencing `CLAUDE.md` and `integration-test-infrastructure`
+- **AND** the agent receives the scaffold signal even without opening `CLAUDE.md`
+
+### Requirement: Assertion Library Does Not Import From e2e
+
+`packages/_assertions/` SHALL NOT import from any path under `e2e/`. This preserves the one-way dependency rule that makes `_assertions` safely consumable by both `packages/*` post-build scripts and `e2e/*` fixtures. If a utility in `_assertions` needs to describe a shape defined in `e2e/*` (e.g., a fixture manifest type), the shape SHALL be defined in `_assertions` and imported by `e2e/*` — never the reverse.
+
+#### Scenario: No e2e import
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer greps `packages/_assertions/src/**` for `from '..'` / `from '../..'` / `e2e/` / any path reaching outside `packages/`
+- **THEN** no import resolves to a path under `e2e/`
+
+#### Scenario: Types flow top-down
+
+- **WHEN** a utility in `_assertions` needs to describe a fixture shape
+- **THEN** the type is declared in `_assertions` and imported by the consuming `e2e/*` script
+- **AND** `_assertions` does NOT import the type from `e2e/*`
+
+### Requirement: Importable from Both Packages and e2e
+
+The package SHALL be importable as `@animus-ui/assertions` from:
+
+- Post-build scripts in `packages/*` (e.g., future TS rewrites of `scripts/assert-showcase.sh`)
+- Fixture apps in `e2e/*` (e.g., `e2e/next-app/scripts/` and future `e2e/vite-app/scripts/`)
+- Integration tests in `packages/_integration/`
+
+This pattern keeps all imports flowing top-down (from consumer toward shared infrastructure) and does not cross the `packages/ ← e2e/` one-way boundary.
+
+#### Scenario: e2e script imports assertions
+
+- **WHEN** a script at `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-next-build.ts` imports `@animus-ui/assertions`
+- **THEN** the import resolves via the workspace to `packages/_assertions/dist/index.js`
+
+#### Scenario: packages post-build script imports assertions
+
+- **WHEN** a future TS script at `scripts/assert-showcase.ts` imports `@animus-ui/assertions`
+- **THEN** the import resolves via the workspace without crossing into `e2e/`
+
+### Requirement: Build Pipeline Inclusion
+
+`packages/_assertions/` SHALL be included in the root `bun run build:ts` command (via workspace filter). Its build output SHALL be generated and type-definitions emitted on the same lifecycle as other TS packages.
+
+#### Scenario: Build output is produced
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run build:ts`
+- **THEN** `packages/_assertions/dist/index.js` and `packages/_assertions/dist/index.d.ts` are produced
+- **AND** importers in the workspace can resolve `@animus-ui/assertions`
+
+### Requirement: No Utilities Implemented in This Change
+
+This change SHALL NOT add any concrete assertion utilities to `packages/_assertions/src/`. Utilities are the scope of the subsequent `integration-test-infrastructure` change. Adding utilities in this change would expand scope beyond topology.
+
+#### Scenario: Scope check
+
+- **WHEN** a reviewer inspects the diff of this change
+- **THEN** `packages/_assertions/src/index.ts` contains only the scaffold export
+- **AND** no positional-layer-order helper, class-name helper, or placeholder-guard helper is present

+## 1. Pre-Move Verification
+
+- [x] 1.1 Confirm `legacy-package-archival` change has landed (this change depends on it being merged so that the workspaces array no longer contains legacy entries).
+- [x] 1.2 Record baseline: run `bun run verify` (using tier structure from `verification-tier-policy` if applied) and confirm green before restructuring.
+- [x] 1.3 Grep the repo for references to `packages/next-test-app` and `@animus-ui/next-test-app` to inventory all locations that will need path + name updates.
+
+## 2. Create `e2e/` Directory and Move next-test-app
+
+- [x] 2.1 Run `git mv packages/next-test-app e2e/next-app`.
+- [x] 2.2 Verify `ls e2e/` shows exactly `next-app/`.
+- [x] 2.3 Verify `ls packages/` no longer contains `next-test-app`.
+- [x] 2.4 Verify `git status` shows the move as a rename (not add + delete).
+
+## 3. Rename Package Identity (confirmed, not optional)
+
+- [x] 3.1 Edit `e2e/next-app/package.json`: change `"name"` field from `"@animus-ui/next-test-app"` to `"@animus-ui/next-app"`. This resolves the directory↔name mismatch flagged by review.
+- [x] 3.2 Update root `package.json` `test:next` script to use the new filter identifier: replace `--filter '@animus-ui/next-test-app'` with `--filter '@animus-ui/next-app'`; update the path to `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh`. (Note: `test:next` was superseded by the `verify:next` composite during `verification-tier-policy`; the `--filter` and path actually live in `scripts/verify/build-next.sh` and `scripts/verify/assert-next.sh` — both updated.)
+- [x] 3.3 Grep repo for any other reference to `@animus-ui/next-test-app` (CI workflow, per-package CLAUDE.md, docs, scripts) and update to `@animus-ui/next-app`. (Found + updated: `scripts/verify/build-next.sh` filter. No CI workflow or per-package CLAUDE.md references exist. `bun.lock` regenerates on install.)
+- [x] 3.4 Confirm the package remains `private: true` (no publishing concern from the rename).
+
+## 4. Create `packages/_assertions/` Scaffold
+
+- [x] 4.1 Create `packages/_assertions/` directory.
+- [x] 4.2 Create `packages/_assertions/package.json` with:
+  - `"name": "@animus-ui/assertions"`
+  - `"version": "0.0.1"` (or `0.0.0` to signal unpublishable)
+  - `"private": true`

+  ```ts
+  // @animus-ui/assertions — scaffold only.
+  // See packages/_assertions/CLAUDE.md and the integration-test-infrastructure change for content roadmap.
+  export {};
+  ```
+  The header comment is required (see spec `shared-assertions-scaffold/spec.md` Requirement "Scaffold Header Banner").
+- [x] 4.4 Create `packages/_assertions/tsconfig.json` following the pattern of other private packages (extending root `tsconfig.base` if one exists, else inline minimal config).
+- [x] 4.5 Create `packages/_assertions/tsconfig.build.json` for emit configuration.
+- [x] 4.6 Create `packages/_assertions/tsdown.config.ts` extending `tsdown.config.base.ts` if present, else minimal inline config.

+
+## 5. Update Root `package.json`
+
+- [x] 5.1 In the `workspaces` array: remove `"packages/next-test-app"` (the entry is present; the `legacy-package-archival` change does not touch it). Add `"e2e/next-app"`. Add `"packages/_assertions"`.
+- [x] 5.2 Confirm the final workspaces array is 10 entries total — 9 under `packages/` (`_assertions`, `_integration`, `extract`, `next-plugin`, `properties`, `showcase`, `system`, `test-ds`, `vite-plugin`) + 1 under `e2e/` (`e2e/next-app`). Note: this count assumes `legacy-package-archival` already removed `packages/core` and `packages/theming`.
+- [x] 5.3 Update `test:next` script: change `packages/next-test-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh` to `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh`; update `--filter '@animus-ui/next-test-app'` to `--filter '@animus-ui/next-app'`. (Landing surface: `scripts/verify/build-next.sh` + `scripts/verify/assert-next.sh` — `test:next` itself is absent post-VTP.)
+- [x] 5.4 Verify no other script references `packages/next-test-app` or `@animus-ui/next-test-app` (grep root `package.json` scripts block). (Scripts block clean — `build:ts` uses `./packages/*` glob which correctly excludes `e2e/next-app`.)
+
+## 6. Update Root `CLAUDE.md`
+
+- [x] 6.1 Add a `## Workspace Topology` section (or similar) near the top, after the MANDATORY RULES or before the monorepo build system section.
+- [x] 6.2 In that section, describe the three-directory convention:
+  - `packages/` — publishable packages (`properties`, `system`, `extract`, `vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`) + deep-internal private packages (`_integration`, `_assertions`, `test-ds`, `showcase`)
+  - `e2e/` — consumer fixture applications (build + assert post-build): `next-app` (at minimum, as of this change)
+  - `legacy/` — archived packages preserved for reference only (per `legacy-package-archival`)
+- [x] 6.3 State the one-way dependency rule: `e2e/*` may import `packages/*`; `packages/*` MUST NOT import `e2e/*`; neither may import `legacy/*`.
+- [x] 6.4 If `verification-tier-policy` has landed, update the Change-Type Map row for `packages/next-plugin/src/**` to `verify:compile && verify:next` (where `verify:next` is the composite chaining build + assert against the new `e2e/next-app` location). (Row already reads `verify:compile && verify:next` from the VTP apply — value unchanged by this rename since the composite shell scripts now resolve the new path.)
+
+## 7. Update Per-Package CLAUDE.md References
+
+- [x] 7.1 Read `packages/next-plugin/CLAUDE.md` (if present); update any reference to `packages/next-test-app/` → `e2e/next-app/` and `@animus-ui/next-test-app` → `@animus-ui/next-app`. (Grep over `packages/**/CLAUDE.md` returned no matches for `next-test-app`; no update needed.)
+- [x] 7.2 Read `packages/system/CLAUDE.md`, `packages/extract/CLAUDE.md`, `packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md`, `packages/showcase/CLAUDE.md`; update stale path and name references. (Same grep — clean.)
+- [x] 7.3 Verify the new `e2e/next-app/CLAUDE.md` (inherited from the move) references its own location correctly — if it referenced `packages/next-test-app/` or `@animus-ui/next-test-app` internally, update. (No `CLAUDE.md` exists in the moved directory — next-test-app never had one.)
+
+## 8. Update Assertion Script Internal References
+
+- [x] 8.1 Read `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh`; update any self-reference to `packages/next-test-app/` → `e2e/next-app/`. (Script uses `cd "$(dirname "$0")/.."` with relative paths throughout — no self-references to the old path. Clean.)
+- [x] 8.2 Read `e2e/next-app/next.config.ts` (or `.js`); update any path reference to the new location (typically none — next config uses relative paths). (`next.config.ts` is 7 lines; `system: './src/ds.ts'` relative — no location refs. Clean.)
+
+## 9. Verification
+
+- [x] 9.1 Run `bun install` from repo root; confirm clean install with no errors. (`Saved lockfile`, 1 package removed, no errors.)
+- [x] 9.2 Run `bun run --filter @animus-ui/next-app build`; confirm build completes (verifies the rename). (Executed as part of `verify:build:next` subtier — exit 0, Next build output written to `e2e/next-app/.next/`.)
+- [x] 9.3 Run `bun run test:next`; confirm it executes the build + assertion pipeline against the new path and filter identifier. (`test:next` superseded post-VTP; `verify:next` composite ran: `build-next.sh` green, `assert-next.sh` 5/7 pass with pre-existing §11.8 `@layer base/variants` gap — same state as session 75, not caused by this change.)
+- [x] 9.4 Run `bun run verify:full` (or `bun run verify` + relevant build/assert tiers if tier structure is in place); confirm green. (10/11 tiers green; `verify:assert:next` failed with session-75's documented §11.8 pre-existing gap — build pipeline from `verify:lint` through `verify:build:{next,showcase}` and `verify:assert:showcase` all exit 0. Topology restructure introduced zero new regressions.)
+- [x] 9.5 Confirm `packages/_assertions/` builds cleanly via `bun run --filter @animus-ui/assertions build`. (Built during `build:all` — `dist/index.js` (0 bytes, correct for empty export), `dist/index.d.ts` (46 bytes), `dist/index.d.ts.map` emitted.)
+- [x] 9.6 Grep repo for `packages/next-test-app` and `@animus-ui/next-test-app` — confirm only archived openspec content still references the old path/name. (Remaining hits: this change's own artifacts, `openspec/changes/archive/**`, `openspec/changes/integration-test-infrastructure/**` (queue item 4 rebase), and main specs `next-test-app-structure` + `verification-tier-policy` (synced at archive time). `bun.lock` regenerated clean.)
+
+## 10. CI Validation
+
+- [ ] 10.1 Push branch to remote; observe CI pipeline.
+- [ ] 10.2 Confirm all CI jobs pass with the new paths and package name.
+- [ ] 10.3 Note: `test:next` is not currently in CI's `verify` job. Its inclusion is out of scope for this change — flag as follow-up if not already queued.
+
+## 11. Post-Merge Follow-Ups (tracked separately, not blockers)
+
+- [ ] 11.1 Queue: add `verify:build:next && verify:assert:next` to CI `verify` job as part of `integration-test-infrastructure`.
+- [ ] 11.2 Queue: add CI/lint enforcement of the one-way dependency rule (`packages/* ↛ e2e/*`, `packages/* ↛ legacy/*`, `e2e/* ↛ legacy/*`).
+- [ ] 11.3 Queue: decide whether to convert workspaces array to glob (`packages/*`, `e2e/*`) — trivial one-line change when ready.
+- [ ] 11.4 Queue: `integration-test-infrastructure` rebase — its tasks 0.1 (bun pin), 1.1–1.4 (e2e/helpers/), 2.1 (e2e/vite-app/), 4.3 (packages/next-test-app path) all need updating to point at the new topology: bun pin is handled here, shared utilities go in `packages/_assertions/src/`, vite-app is still in `e2e/vite-app/` (creation now valid post-this-change), and next-app assertions target `e2e/next-app/`.

+## Context
+
+Five packages in `packages/` — `core`, `theming`, `ui`, `_docs`, `runtime` — are legacy. The Animus architecture has migrated to a `system` + `extract` + `vite-plugin` + `next-plugin` + `properties` surface (5 publishable packages), plus private consumers (`_integration`, `showcase`, `test-ds`, `next-test-app`). The legacy five are:
+
+- `core`: old emotion-runtime-based CSS-in-JS foundation. Still theoretically viable for emotion-only use cases, but the user (sole author, Staff Engineer) confirmed: "unless you see a reason to maintain the emotion runtime... we should not be publishing them anymore." No reason found.
+- `theming`: theme utilities built on `core`. Only consumed by `ui` and `_docs`.
+- `ui` (published as `@animus-ui/components`): legacy component library built on `core` + `theming`. Only consumed by `_docs`.
+- `_docs`: old documentation app built on `core` + `theming` + `ui`. Superseded by `showcase`.
+- `runtime`: production runtime shim stub. Orphan — imported by nothing.
+
+Grep verified (April 2026, session 72): no production package imports any of the five. The Rust string references in `packages/extract/src/*.rs` are external-package resolution fixtures testing the extractor, not runtime dependencies. Archived openspec content references them for historical purposes.
+
+Workspaces-array current state (`package.json:4-16`):
+- Listed: `_integration, core, extract, next-plugin, next-test-app, properties, showcase, system, test-ds, theming, vite-plugin` (11 entries)
+- NOT listed but on disk: `_docs, runtime, ui` (3 entries — already excluded from workspace resolution; just occupy disk space)
+
+So the scoped removal is **2 entries** (`core`, `theming`) from the workspaces array plus **5 directory moves** on disk.
+
+Publish loops (`release.sh:22`, `ci.yaml:166`, `ci.yaml:248`) list `properties, system, extract, vite-plugin, next-plugin` — legacy packages already absent. No publish-graph cleanup needed.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Structurally separate "on-disk code" from "publishable code" by using two top-level directories with distinct semantics.
+- Preserve git history for the moved packages via `git mv`.
+- Ensure no production package imports legacy (enforced by grep + optional CI check).
+- Reduce `ls packages/` surface from 14 to 9 entries, lowering cognitive load for repo exploration.
+- Prepare the workspaces array for the future transition to glob expansion (`packages/*` + `e2e/*`) without legacy contamination.
+- Keep legacy code browsable and readable — not deleted. Useful for reference, pattern copy, and historical context.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Deleting legacy packages. Moving preserves history and browsability. Deletion is a future decision.
+- Maintaining the emotion runtime. User explicitly confirmed no reason to keep publishing.
+- Refactoring any legacy code. Moves are file-system operations only.
+- Addressing other legacy cleanup (e.g., `tmp/` directory, archived docs). Scoped to the five packages.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Separate `legacy/` directory, not `packages/_legacy/`
+
+`legacy/` sits at the repository root as a sibling to `packages/`, not as a prefixed subdirectory inside `packages/`.
+
+**Rationale**: the user's framing was explicit — "packages on disk or whatever what we're actually going to publish is separate." A sibling directory encodes the separation structurally. An agent doing `ls` at the repo root sees two distinct groups: "the active code" (`packages/`) and "the archived code" (`legacy/`). Putting legacy inside `packages/` would require the underscore-prefix convention (`_legacy`) and still visually associate legacy with the active set.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- `packages/_graveyard/`: keeps the prefix convention but buries legacy inside the active directory. Rejected — the whole point is visible separation.
+- Delete outright: git history preserves removed files, but browsability requires `git log` archaeology. Rejected — legacy code is useful for reference during the migration window.
+- `archive/` directory name: conflates with `openspec/changes/archive/` which has unrelated semantics. Rejected — `legacy/` is unambiguous.
+
+### Decision 2: Move all five as a unit, not piecemeal
+
+Single change, single commit window, all five packages move together.
+
+**Rationale**: piecemeal moves would leave the repo in an ambiguous state (some legacy in `packages/`, some in `legacy/`). The cluster is already self-contained (no production imports), so the blast radius of a unit move is the same as any single move. Unit move is clearer, faster, and eliminates the intermediate ambiguous state.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Move `core` only, see how it goes, then move others: adds PR overhead with no benefit.
+- Move `_docs` + `ui` first (easiest, pure UI code), then `core` + `theming` + `runtime` later: same as above, with the added cost of an intermediate state where `ui` imports `core` across the `packages/` ↔ `legacy/` boundary.
+
+### Decision 3: Remove legacy from workspaces array; keep explicit listing
+
+The workspaces array remains an explicit enumeration (not a glob). Removing `core` and `theming` from the array is a targeted edit.
+
+**Rationale**: converting to glob (`packages/*`) is premature — that belongs to `e2e-workspace-topology`, which also adds `e2e/*`. Separating the two changes keeps each review-focused. Explicit enumeration during this change means bun install behavior is predictable: exactly the 9 remaining packages install and symlink.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Convert to `["packages/*"]` in this change: couples legacy removal with the workspace-convention shift. Rejected — separation of concerns, plus legacy would still be pulled in by the glob until moved.
+- Include `legacy/*` in workspaces so legacy packages install/link: rejected — defeats the purpose. Legacy code is for reading, not running.
+
+### Decision 4: Move via `git mv`, one mv per directory
+
+Use `git mv packages/X legacy/X` for each of the five. Git tracks this as a rename, preserving history.
+
+**Rationale**: `git mv` is the standard idiom. The alternative (manual `mv` + `git add`) can lose rename detection depending on content similarity thresholds.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- `mv` + `git add`: works but requires `git log --follow` to trace history for each file. Rejected — suboptimal DX.
+
+### Decision 5: Privacy flip for all legacy packages with `publishConfig`
+
+Four of the five legacy packages currently have `publishConfig: { access: public }` in their `package.json` — verified by direct inspection: `core`, `runtime`, `theming`, `ui`. Only `_docs` lacks it. This is a latent hazard — if a future release script ever generalized package selection (e.g., "publish everything with `publishConfig.access`"), these four would accidentally publish.
+
+Strip `publishConfig` from all four. Ensure `private: true` is set on every moved package. All five are already `private: true` per inspection, but reassert to be safe.
+
+**Rationale**: defense-in-depth. Explicit publish lists are the primary gate; private flag is the secondary gate. Legacy packages should have both.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Leave `publishConfig` as-is: weak. Rejected.
+
+### Decision 6: No forward-compat symlink or alias
+
+No `packages/core -> legacy/core` symlink. No redirect. If anything imports `@animus-ui/core`, it breaks and that's the intended signal.
+
+**Rationale**: grep verified zero production imports. Any future accidental import should surface as a clear "module not found" error, not a silently resolvable alias.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Symlink for compatibility: hides the boundary crossing. Rejected.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] An import of a legacy package is missed by the grep pass → Mitigation**: CI runs `bun install && bun run build:ts` — any unresolvable import fails the build. Additionally, the `verification-tier-policy` tier structure (once in place) catches this via `verify:compile`.
+
+**[Risk] A downstream external consumer depends on `@animus-ui/core` or `@animus-ui/components` → Mitigation**: none needed — user confirmed no publish intent for these. Current `release.sh:22` publish list does not include them, and they have been effectively unpublished for the current release series.
+
+**[Risk] Agents continue to read legacy code and assume it's active → Mitigation**: `legacy/` directory name is self-documenting. Root CLAUDE.md adds an explicit section. Per-package legacy CLAUDE.md files (where present) can add a header warning.
+
+**[Risk] Archived openspec content references `packages/core` paths that no longer exist → Accepted**: archived specs are historical records; broken path references in archives are acceptable. A note in root CLAUDE.md about archive/active divergence is sufficient.
+
+**[Trade-off] Git history requires `--follow` to trace files post-move → Accepted**: standard git cost for any directory rename. `git log --follow legacy/core/src/...` works.
+
+**[Trade-off] The `legacy/` directory grows the repo's top-level surface → Accepted**: one more top-level entry is a small cost for the structural clarity gained.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+1. **Pre-check**: re-run grep `@animus-ui/(core|theming|components|docs|runtime)` on non-legacy, non-node_modules source. Expect zero production hits.
+2. **File moves** (in a single commit):
+   - `git mv packages/core legacy/core`
+   - `git mv packages/theming legacy/theming`
+   - `git mv packages/ui legacy/ui`
+   - `git mv packages/_docs legacy/_docs`
+   - `git mv packages/runtime legacy/runtime`
+3. **Workspaces array edit**: remove `packages/core` and `packages/theming` entries from root `package.json` workspaces array. Result: 9 entries.
+4. **Privacy flips**: edit `legacy/core/package.json` and `legacy/runtime/package.json` to remove `publishConfig` and add/confirm `private: true`. Verify `legacy/theming/package.json`, `legacy/ui/package.json`, `legacy/_docs/package.json` already have `private: true`.
+5. **Root CLAUDE.md**: add `## Legacy Packages` section documenting the convention and one-way independence rule.
+6. **Verify locally**: `bun install && bun run verify` (using tier structure if already landed, else current `verify`) — expect green.
+7. **Push to feature branch**: confirm CI green.
+8. **Merge**: single commit, atomic.
+
+Rollback: revert the single commit; the five directories return to `packages/` and the workspaces array is restored.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- **Convert workspaces array to glob now or wait for `e2e-workspace-topology`?** Leaning: wait — this change keeps the array explicit. The topology change does the glob conversion plus `e2e/*` addition together, which is a more coherent review.
+- **Should archived openspec content be rewritten to reference `legacy/<pkg>` paths?** Leaning: no — archives are historical; rewriting them muddies history. A one-line note in root CLAUDE.md explaining the archive/active path divergence suffices.
+- **Should legacy packages be deleted eventually?** Leaning: not in this change. Deletion is a separate decision tied to when the codebase stops referencing them in any tooling (extraction test fixtures, etc.).
+- **Any value in a CI check that fails if `packages/*` imports from `legacy/*`?** Leaning: yes, eventually, as part of the one-way-dependency rule enforcement in `e2e-workspace-topology`. Not in scope for this change, but queue as a follow-up.

+## Why
+
+Five packages — `core`, `theming`, `ui` (aka `@animus-ui/components`), `_docs`, and `runtime` — live in `packages/` but are no longer part of the production dependency graph. They import each other and nothing in the active graph (system, extract, vite-plugin, next-plugin, properties + consumers showcase, next-test-app, test-ds, _integration) imports them. They are a self-contained legacy cluster. Their continued presence in `packages/` conflates "on-disk" with "publishable" and creates grep noise + LLM confusion (e.g., an agent encountering `packages/core/src/` assumes it is part of the active codebase). This change moves them together to a sibling `legacy/` directory at repo root, marking them structurally as "not part of the publish graph."
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Create `legacy/` directory at repository root**, sibling to `packages/`.
+- **Move five package directories** as a unit:
+  - `packages/core/` → `legacy/core/`
+  - `packages/theming/` → `legacy/theming/`
+  - `packages/ui/` → `legacy/ui/`
+  - `packages/_docs/` → `legacy/_docs/`
+  - `packages/runtime/` → `legacy/runtime/`
+- **Mark all moved packages private**. Currently `core`, `runtime`, `theming`, and `ui` have `publishConfig: { access: public }` (verified via `package.json` inspection); `_docs` does not. Strip `publishConfig` from all four and ensure `private: true` is set on every moved package.
+- **Remove moved packages from root `package.json` workspaces array**. The array remains explicit (no glob expansion to `legacy/*`) so `bun install` does not resolve legacy packages into the workspace graph. Legacy packages remain browsable and editable on disk; they just don't install or link.
+- **Remove references from `release.sh` and `ci.yaml`** publish loops if present. (Current state: `release.sh:22` lists `properties system extract vite-plugin next-plugin` — legacy packages are already absent, confirm no latent references.)
+- **Update root `CLAUDE.md`** to document the `legacy/` convention: "packages on disk ≠ publishable. `packages/` is the publish graph. `legacy/` is archived code preserved for reference; do not import, do not build, do not publish."
+- **Update `packages/` package-level `CLAUDE.md` files** that reference legacy packages by import path (e.g., if `packages/showcase/CLAUDE.md` mentions `@animus-ui/core` for historical reasons, note its legacy status).
+- **Verify no production package imports legacy packages**: run a grep pass and confirm clean separation. (Already verified once during the pre-restructure exploration — no production imports.)
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `legacy-directory-topology`: the `legacy/` directory convention, what qualifies a package for archival, the one-way independence rule (legacy MUST NOT be imported from `packages/` or `e2e/`), workspace-exclusion policy, private-flag requirement, documentation location.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `bun-workspace`: the root workspaces array change (remove 5 legacy entries) alters the workspace graph. The existing `bun-workspace` spec describes workspace resolution; this change removes packages from that graph.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **File moves**: 5 directories move from `packages/` to `legacy/`. Git history preserved via `git mv`.
+- **Root `package.json`**: `workspaces` array drops `core`, `theming`, `ui` (Wait: `ui` is not currently listed; only `core` and `theming` are in the workspaces array per `package.json:5-15`. `_docs`, `runtime`, `ui` are on-disk but not in the workspaces array today. Confirm and remove only entries actually present.) → Correct scope: remove `packages/core` and `packages/theming` from workspaces; `_docs`, `runtime`, `ui` are already excluded and simply move to `legacy/` on disk.
+- **Per-package `package.json` edits** in moved packages: ensure `private: true`; remove `publishConfig.access: public` from `core`, `runtime`, `theming`, `ui` (all four currently have it).
+- **Import graph**: unchanged in practice because no production package imports the moved set (verified via grep of `@animus-ui/(core|theming|components|docs|runtime)` across non-node_modules source; all hits are within the legacy cluster, in Rust string fixtures, or in archived openspec content).
+- **Scripts**: no changes needed. `release.sh` and `ci.yaml` publish lists do not reference legacy packages.
+- **CLAUDE.md (root)**: add `## Legacy Packages` section documenting the convention and the one-way independence rule.
+- **CLAUDE.md (per-package)**: minor edits where legacy packages are referenced by path.
+- **External consumers**: none — all affected packages are private or already absent from published releases (verified by inspecting `release.sh:22` and `ci.yaml:166,248`).
+- **Rediscoverability**: `ls packages/` drops from 14 entries to 9, reducing cognitive load for agents and humans doing initial repo exploration. `legacy/` is self-documenting by its name.
+- **Prerequisite for**: `e2e-workspace-topology` — legacy cleanup must land first so the workspaces-array transition (from explicit list to glob-based `packages/*` + `e2e/*`) doesn't accidentally include legacy packages.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Bun workspace script execution
+The monorepo SHALL use Bun's native workspace features for running scripts across packages. No dedicated orchestration tool (NX, Lerna, Turborepo) SHALL be required.
+
+The workspace SHALL exclude packages located under `legacy/` at the repository root. `bun run build` SHALL build only packages present in the root `package.json` `workspaces` array — legacy packages SHALL NOT be included in any cross-workspace script dispatch.
+
+#### Scenario: Run build across all packages
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run build` from the root
+- **THEN** all active workspace packages are built in dependency order
+- **AND** no package under `legacy/` is built
+
+#### Scenario: Run script in specific package
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter @animus-ui/system build`
+- **THEN** only the `packages/system` build script executes
+
+#### Scenario: Filter does not resolve legacy packages
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter @animus-ui/core build`
+- **THEN** bun reports no matching workspace (since `@animus-ui/core` resides under `legacy/` and is excluded from the workspace graph)
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Workspace Array Excludes Legacy Paths
+
+The root `package.json` `workspaces` array SHALL NOT contain any entry whose path begins with `legacy/`. Additions to the workspaces array SHALL be reviewed against this rule.
+
+#### Scenario: Workspaces array shape
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the root `package.json` `workspaces` field
+- **THEN** every entry refers to a path under `packages/` or (when the `e2e-workspace-topology` change is applied) under `e2e/`
+- **AND** no entry refers to a path under `legacy/`

+- **THEN** they are found under `legacy/<name>/`, not `packages/<name>/` or any other location
+
+### Requirement: Initial Legacy Cluster
+
+The following five packages SHALL reside under `legacy/` after this change:
+
+- `legacy/core/` (previously `packages/core/`, published as `@animus-ui/core`)
+- `legacy/theming/` (previously `packages/theming/`, published as `@animus-ui/theming`)
+- `legacy/ui/` (previously `packages/ui/`, published as `@animus-ui/components`)
+- `legacy/_docs/` (previously `packages/_docs/`)
+- `legacy/runtime/` (previously `packages/runtime/`, published as `@animus-ui/runtime`)
+
+Moves SHALL use `git mv` to preserve history as renames.
+
+#### Scenario: Each legacy package is present post-move
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer navigates to the repository root after this change is applied
+- **THEN** each of the five listed packages is present under `legacy/`
+- **AND** none of the five is present under `packages/`
+
+#### Scenario: Git history is preserved
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer runs `git log --follow legacy/core/src/<file>`
+- **THEN** the history includes commits from when the file was located at `packages/core/src/<file>`
+
+### Requirement: Legacy Packages Are Not in the Workspace Graph
+
+No package under `legacy/` SHALL be present in the root `package.json` `workspaces` array. `bun install` SHALL NOT resolve, symlink, or install dependencies for any package under `legacy/`.
+
+#### Scenario: Legacy packages are absent from workspaces
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the root `package.json` `workspaces` array
+- **THEN** no entry references a path beginning with `legacy/`
+- **AND** no entry references the five archived package names
+
+#### Scenario: Clean install skips legacy
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun install` from a clean state
+- **THEN** no symlinks are created for packages under `legacy/`
+- **AND** `node_modules/@animus-ui/core` (and similar for the archived five) does not resolve to a workspace package
+
+### Requirement: Legacy Packages Are Private
+
+Every package under `legacy/` SHALL have `private: true` in its `package.json`. No package under `legacy/` SHALL have a `publishConfig` field granting publish access.
+
+#### Scenario: Privacy flag present
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the `package.json` of any package under `legacy/`
+- **THEN** the file contains `"private": true`
+
+#### Scenario: No publish config
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the `package.json` of any package under `legacy/`
+- **THEN** the file does NOT contain a `publishConfig` field with `access: public`
+
+### Requirement: One-Way Independence Rule
+
+No package under `packages/` or (once present) `e2e/` SHALL import from any package under `legacy/`. Legacy packages MAY import from each other; they MUST NOT be imported by active code.
+
+#### Scenario: Active packages do not import legacy
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer greps `@animus-ui/(core|theming|components|docs|runtime)` across `packages/**` and `e2e/**` source files
+- **THEN** no production source file (excluding generated dist, node_modules, archived openspec content, and Rust string-literal test fixtures) contains such an import
+
+#### Scenario: CI or lint enforcement
+
+- **WHEN** a future change enforces the one-way independence rule in CI
+- **THEN** the enforcement MAY be implemented as a grep check, an ESLint rule, or equivalent
+- **AND** it MUST fail the build if a `packages/*` or `e2e/*` source file imports from `@animus-ui/<legacy-package>`
+
+### Requirement: Root CLAUDE.md Documents Legacy Convention
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL contain a `## Legacy Packages` (or equivalent) section that states:
+
+- `legacy/` exists as a sibling to `packages/`
+- Packages in `legacy/` are preserved for reference, not for runtime use
+- The one-way independence rule
+- Which packages currently reside in `legacy/`
+
+#### Scenario: Agent reads the legacy convention
+
+- **WHEN** an agent loads root `CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** a section documents the `legacy/` directory and its semantics
+- **AND** the agent can distinguish active packages from legacy without additional lookup
+
+### Requirement: No Compatibility Aliases
+
+No symlink, path alias, or module resolver rule SHALL redirect references like `packages/core` to `legacy/core`. Any remaining import of an archived package SHALL fail with a normal module-not-found error.
+
+#### Scenario: Import of archived package fails cleanly
+
+- **WHEN** source code imports `@animus-ui/core` (or any other archived package name) from a non-legacy file
+- **THEN** the import fails with a standard module-resolution error
+- **AND** no silent redirect occurs

+## 1. Pre-Move Verification
+
+- [x] 1.1 Re-run grep `@animus-ui/(core|theming|components|docs|runtime)` across all non-legacy, non-node_modules, non-archive source to re-confirm zero production imports at the time of execution (the earlier verification was at proposal time; this re-runs immediately before the move as a final gate). → VERIFIED: 37 TS/TSX hits are all within legacy packages themselves + `packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts` Rust fixture strings (not runtime imports). No active package imports legacy.
+- [x] 1.2 Confirm no `packages/*/package.json` declares a dependency, devDependency, peerDependency, or optionalDependency on `@animus-ui/core`, `@animus-ui/theming`, `@animus-ui/components`, `@animus-ui/docs`, or `@animus-ui/runtime`. → VERIFIED: only legacy siblings depend on each other (theming→core, ui→core+theming). No active package declares legacy deps.
+- [x] 1.3 Check archived openspec content for references to `packages/<legacy-name>/` paths; note any that will show broken paths post-move but MUST remain unchanged as historical record. → NOTED: archive references exist in 2026-03-30-*, 2026-04-03-*, 2026-04-11-* archives; preserved as historical state per decision.
+- [x] 1.4 Record baseline: run `bun run verify` (or `bun run verify:full` if the `verification-tier-policy` change is already applied) and confirm green before moving anything. → GREEN: lint + compile + types + unit:ts + unit:rust (254 pass) + canary (192 pass, 4 snapshots) all green pre-move.
+- [x] 1.5 **Pre-flip state recording (idempotency)**: before editing any legacy `package.json`, record the current state of `private` and `publishConfig` fields for each of the 5 legacy packages. Makes task 4 re-runnable and provides a before/after diff for review. → RECORDED: core/theming/ui/runtime all have `private:true` + `publishConfig:{access:public}`; _docs has only `private:true` (no publishConfig).
+
+## 2. File Moves
+
+- [x] 2.1 `git mv packages/core legacy/core`
+- [x] 2.2 `git mv packages/theming legacy/theming`
+- [x] 2.3 `git mv packages/ui legacy/ui`
+- [x] 2.4 `git mv packages/_docs legacy/_docs`
+- [x] 2.5 `git mv packages/runtime legacy/runtime`
+- [x] 2.6 Verify `ls packages/` shows 9 entries (no core, theming, ui, _docs, runtime); verify `ls legacy/` shows the 5 moved directories. → VERIFIED: packages/ = 9 entries (_integration, extract, next-plugin, next-test-app, properties, showcase, system, test-ds, vite-plugin); legacy/ = 5 entries (_docs, core, runtime, theming, ui).
+- [x] 2.7 Verify `git status` shows the moves as renames (not add + delete). → VERIFIED: `git status --short` shows `R  packages/<name>/... -> legacy/<name>/...` for all moved files.
+
+## 3. Workspaces Array Update
+
+- [x] 3.1 Edit root `package.json` `workspaces` array: remove `"packages/core"` and `"packages/theming"` entries.
+- [x] 3.2 Confirm final array has 9 entries: `_integration, extract, next-plugin, next-test-app, properties, showcase, system, test-ds, vite-plugin`. → VERIFIED.
+- [x] 3.3 Do NOT add `legacy/*` to the workspaces array — legacy is explicitly excluded from the workspace graph. → HELD.
+
+## 4. Privacy Flips
+
+- [x] 4.1 Edit `legacy/core/package.json`: confirm `"private": true` is set (already set per inspection — reassert); **remove the `publishConfig` field entirely** (currently `{ "access": "public" }`). → DONE: `private:true` retained, publishConfig block removed.
+- [x] 4.2 Edit `legacy/runtime/package.json`: confirm `"private": true`; **remove the `publishConfig` field entirely** (currently `{ "access": "public" }`). → DONE.
+- [x] 4.3 Edit `legacy/theming/package.json`: confirm `"private": true`; **remove the `publishConfig` field entirely** (currently `{ "access": "public" }`). Do NOT skip this — the proposal originally missed this file; verified it also carries `publishConfig`. → DONE.
+- [x] 4.4 Edit `legacy/ui/package.json`: confirm `"private": true`; **remove the `publishConfig` field entirely** (currently `{ "access": "public" }`). Do NOT skip this — same as `theming`. → DONE.
+- [x] 4.5 Verify `legacy/_docs/package.json`: already has `"private": true`, already lacks `publishConfig` per inspection. No edit required but confirm. → CONFIRMED: `_docs` package.json has only `name/version/private:true`. No edit.
+
+## 5. Publish Guard Cross-Check
+
+- [x] 5.1 Read `scripts/release.sh` line 22 `PACKAGES=(properties system extract vite-plugin next-plugin)`; confirm no legacy names present. → VERIFIED.
+- [x] 5.2 Read `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` (version bump loop and publish loop — look for package-name iteration); confirm no legacy names present. → VERIFIED: version-bump loop (ci.yaml:180) = `properties system extract vite-plugin next-plugin`; publish loop (ci.yaml:262) = `properties system vite-plugin next-plugin`. No legacy names.
+- [x] 5.3 If any cross-reference exists (e.g., comments referencing "core was published as @animus-ui/core"), update to reflect archival. → NONE FOUND in scripts or CI.
+
+## 6. Root CLAUDE.md Update
+
+- [x] 6.1 Add a `## Legacy Packages` section to root `CLAUDE.md` after the `## Monorepo Build System` section.
+- [x] 6.2 In that section, state: `legacy/` sits at repo root as a sibling to `packages/`; packages there are preserved for reference only; they do not install, build, or publish.
+- [x] 6.3 State the one-way independence rule: `packages/*` and `e2e/*` MUST NOT import from `legacy/*`.
+- [x] 6.4 List the five current legacy packages with their former published names.
+- [x] 6.5 Note the `cd legacy/<pkg> && bun install` footgun: legacy `package.json`s have `workspace:*` cross-references to each other that no longer resolve (since legacy is excluded from the workspace graph). Document this as expected — `bun install` inside a legacy package will fail, and that is the intended signal. Running/installing/building legacy code is not supported post-archival. → NOTE: also updated Package Build Order to reflect post-archival active chain (extract → properties → system → plugins → consumers) and absorbed the prior inline legacy note.
+
+## 7. Tooling Leakage Prevention
+
+- [x] 7.1 Update `biome.json` to exclude `legacy/**` from linting: add `"!legacy/**"` to the top-level `files.includes` array (or equivalent exclusion mechanism). → DONE.
+- [x] 7.2 Remove the two dead `packages/_docs/...` override entries in `biome.json` (currently at `packages/_docs/pages/_document.tsx` and `packages/_docs/components/Highlighter/Highlighter.tsx`). After the move, these paths no longer exist and the overrides become dead weight. → DONE.
+- [x] 7.3 Confirm root `tsconfig.json` does not have an `include` that would pull in `legacy/**` (currently no explicit include — safe, but verify). → CONFIRMED: no explicit `include`; `exclude: ["**/node_modules"]` only.
+- [x] 7.4 Confirm `scripts/assert-showcase.sh` and any other shell scripts do not reference legacy package paths. → CONFIRMED: assert-showcase.sh only references `packages/showcase/dist`; verify scripts reference only active packages.
+
+## 8. Per-Package CLAUDE.md Cross-Check
+
+- [x] 8.1 Read `packages/system/CLAUDE.md`, `packages/extract/CLAUDE.md`, `packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md`, `packages/showcase/CLAUDE.md` for mentions of `@animus-ui/core`, `@animus-ui/theming`, `@animus-ui/components`, `@animus-ui/runtime`; update to note their legacy status where referenced. → DONE: system/CLAUDE.md architecture section rewritten (stale "re-exports from core" claim removed; Relationship table replaced with actual runtime edges incl. properties + plugins; legacy row added); showcase/CLAUDE.md two `@animus-ui/core` contrast-refs annotated with legacy pointer; extract + vite-plugin clean.
+- [x] 8.2 If any per-package CLAUDE.md references `packages/<legacy-name>/` as an active reference point, update to `legacy/<name>/` with a note about archival. → DONE: system/CLAUDE.md `core/src/Animus.ts` → `packages/system/src/Animus.ts` (actual post-restructure location — the class hierarchy is in system now, not core).
+- [x] 8.3 Do not rewrite archived openspec content; historical references to `packages/<legacy-name>/` are accepted as archival state. → HELD.
+
+## 9. Legacy Package CLAUDE.md Annotation (optional)
+
+- [x] 9.1 For each `legacy/<name>/CLAUDE.md` that exists, prepend a one-line warning: `# LEGACY — this package is archived. See root CLAUDE.md § Legacy Packages.` → DONE for `legacy/core/CLAUDE.md` and `legacy/theming/CLAUDE.md` (the only two extant).
+- [x] 9.2 If a legacy package has no CLAUDE.md, do not create one — archival state does not require new documentation. → HELD: `legacy/ui`, `legacy/_docs`, `legacy/runtime` have no CLAUDE.md; none created.
+
+## 10. Post-Move Verification
+
+- [x] 10.1 Run `bun install` from repo root; confirm clean install with no errors. → DONE: `Saved lockfile; 2 packages removed [109ms]` — exactly the 2 legacy workspace entries (`@animus-ui/core`, `@animus-ui/theming`) removed. No errors.
+- [x] 10.2 Regenerate `bun.lock` if needed (`rm -rf node_modules && bun install`) to clear any stale references to `@animus-ui/core` / `@animus-ui/theming` workspace entries. → NOT REQUIRED: plain `bun install` auto-updated the lockfile; `grep -c '@animus-ui/(core|theming|components|runtime|docs)' bun.lock` → 0.
+- [x] 10.3 Confirm no symlinks were created under `node_modules/@animus-ui/` for the five archived package names (or if they exist as stale, remove via `rm -rf node_modules && bun install`). → VERIFIED: `ls node_modules/@animus-ui/` → `showcase` only. No legacy names present.
+- [x] 10.4 Run `bun run verify` (or `bun run verify:full` if the `verification-tier-policy` change is already applied); confirm green. → 10/11 tiers GREEN: lint + compile + types + unit:ts + unit:rust (254) + canary (192, 4 snapshots — inline snapshot in "snapshot: real doc site" describe regenerated after path update, see §addendum below) + integration + build:next + build:showcase + assert:showcase. Only `verify:assert:next` fails, exactly matching the pre-existing §11.8 `@layer base`/`@layer variants` gap documented in the archived `verification-tier-policy` change — 5 of 7 next-assert checks pass; 2 fail on the same @layer presence checks unrelated to this change.
+- [x] 10.5 Run `bun run build:all`; confirm no legacy package appears in build output. → DONE (covered by verify:full's build tiers): build:extract + build:ts ran across the 9 active workspaces; no legacy names in build output.
+- [x] 10.6 Run `biome check` locally; confirm `legacy/**` is skipped (no lint errors from archived code). → DONE: `Checked 220 files in 68ms. No fixes applied.` (Down from previous file-count; legacy/** excluded.)
+- [x] 10.7 Test filter behavior: `bun run --filter @animus-ui/core build` — confirm it reports no matching workspace (verifying legacy exclusion). → VERIFIED for all 4 legacy publish-names: `@animus-ui/core`, `@animus-ui/theming`, `@animus-ui/components`, `@animus-ui/runtime` all return `error: No packages matched the filter`.
+
+### §10 Addendum — canary path fix (consequence of §2 moves, applied under this change)
+
+The `snapshot: real doc site` describe in `packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts` scanned `packages/_docs/elements|components|pages` and `packages/ui/src/` as its realistic multi-package corpus, and mapped `@animus-ui/components` → `packages/ui/src/index.ts` in its layer5PackageMap. After the §2 moves those paths resolved to empty file sets, so the test extracted 0 components and the inline CSS snapshot assertion failed.
+
+Fix: repointed the dirs array + layer5PackageMap to `legacy/ui/src`, `legacy/_docs/elements`, `legacy/_docs/components`, `legacy/_docs/pages`, `legacy/ui/src/index.ts`. Re-ran `bun test packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts -u` to regenerate the inline CSS snapshot — class-name hashes are derived from `filename::binding`, so the new `legacy/…` filenames produced new hashes; the CSS structure and component counts are preserved (`components_total ≥ 23` still holds; `components_extracted ≥ 8` still holds). 192 pass / 0 fail / 4 snapshots. The canary's seal is preserved; it now seals the post-archival corpus, which is exactly what this change reframes "the realistic multi-package extraction fixture" to mean.
+
+## 11. CI Validation
+
+- [ ] 11.1 Push branch to remote; observe CI pipeline. → DEFERRED TO MAINTAINER per session-74 "passing on CI" framing — local verify suite (10/11 tiers green + known-gap on verify:assert:next) is sufficient evidence for archive.
+- [ ] 11.2 Confirm `lint`, `test-rust`, `build-extract`, `verify` jobs pass. → DEFERRED (see 11.1).
+- [ ] 11.3 Confirm no references to legacy package paths appear in CI output. → DEFERRED (see 11.1).
+
+## 12. Post-Merge Follow-Ups (tracked separately, not blockers)
+
+- [ ] 12.1 File a follow-up item to add a CI grep check (or lint rule) enforcing the one-way independence rule as part of `e2e-workspace-topology` or a later change. → QUEUED: belongs to `e2e-workspace-topology` scope.
+- [ ] 12.2 File a follow-up item to eventually delete legacy packages outright once no test fixtures or archived spec references them (no timeline; this is a long-horizon cleanup). → QUEUED: long-horizon. Note: canary "real doc site" describe now anchors legacy/ui + legacy/_docs as a permanent fixture — deletion would require either replacing the canary corpus (e.g., with showcase) or removing the describe.

+## Context
+
+The Animus test pyramid has 5 tiers (Rust unit, canary, integration, JS unit, post-build assertions) totaling 539 tests. These validate extraction correctness at the data level — CSS strings produced by the NAPI boundary match expected snapshots. What's missing is validation of the *delivery* mechanism: virtual module resolution, adopted stylesheet application, HMR invalidation propagation, and structural CSS ordering in built output.
+
+The existing post-build assertions (`assert-showcase.sh`, `assert-next-build.sh`) use shell `grep` — string presence checks that cannot validate positional properties like `@layer` ordering, which is the core cascade contract.
+
+A contrived Vite test app (`next-test-app` equivalent) does not exist. The showcase (22 components, MDX, motion, ark-ui) is too heavy for a test fixture.
+
+The project is solo-maintained, pre-v1, greenfield. Test infrastructure must be lightweight, low-maintenance, and earn its keep.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Validate CSS structural correctness (layer ordering, not just layer presence) in built output
+- Create a contrived Vite test app mirroring the `next-test-app` pattern
+- Add manifest shape assertions to catch provenance/fragment/dynamic_props regressions
+- Establish `e2e/` workspace topology for future browser and HMR tests
+- Plugin self-verification at dev server startup (fail-fast on misconfiguration)
+- Harden NAPI loading contract and CI reliability for all NAPI-dependent test tiers
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Visual fidelity regression (VFR) screenshots — no users to regress against yet
+- Cross-plugin parity testing (Vite vs Next) — Next plugin still in flux
+- Generated fixtures from source of truth — premature until API stabilizes
+- HMR lifecycle tests in Phase 1 — deferred to Phase 2 with event-driven mechanics
+- Playwright browser testing in Phase 1 — deferred to Phase 2
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Top-level `e2e/` directory, not `packages/`
+
+Test fixtures and shared test helpers live in a new `e2e/` top-level directory, added to the root `package.json` workspaces list.
+
+**Rationale:** `packages/` is the published/internal package space. Test fixtures are neither. VE uses `fixtures/` + `test-helpers/`, Panda uses `sandbox/`. A dedicated `e2e/` directory cleanly separates test infrastructure from the package graph. Existing precedent (`_integration`, `next-test-app`, `test-ds` in `packages/`) is acknowledged as prior debt, not a pattern to extend.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Keeping fixtures in `packages/_e2e`. Rejected because it continues conflating test infrastructure with packages. The explicit workspace list supports entries outside `packages/` — no tooling constraints.
+
+### 2. Contrived Vite app mirroring `next-test-app`, not showcase
+
+The Vite test fixture is a minimal app with 7 components importing from `@animus-ui/test-ds`, its own `src/ds.ts`, and `vite.config.ts` with `animusExtract()`. Builds in seconds.
+
+**Rationale:** The showcase has MDX, motion, ark-ui, lucide icons, react-router-dom, 22 components, and a complex vite config. It's a demo, not a test harness. A contrived fixture is:
+- Fast (seconds to build vs. 10+ seconds for showcase)
+- Stable (no external dependency churn from ark-ui/motion updates)
+- Targeted (tests extraction pipeline, not application patterns)
+- Symmetrical with `next-test-app` (same component set, same assertions, different plugin)
+
+**Alternative considered:** Using showcase as the fixture. Rejected per adversarial review — showcase dependencies add maintenance burden and build time unrelated to extraction correctness.
+
+### 3. Positional CSS assertions, not cssnano normalization
+
+CSS structural correctness is validated via `indexOf` position comparison, not content normalization.
+
+**Rationale:** The cascade contract is positional — `@layer` declaration must precede variables, variables must precede globals, globals must precede component CSS. cssnano normalizes content (whitespace, redundant rules) but masks positional bugs. The actively-confirmed Lightning CSS cascade issue (`fix-lightningcss-cascade` openspec) would pass cssnano-normalized snapshots because the CSS properties are present — just in the wrong position.
+
+The assertion pattern (already used in `post-process.test.ts`):
+```typescript
+function assertLayerOrder(css: string) {
+  const positions = {
+    declaration: css.indexOf('@layer'),
+    variables: css.indexOf(':root'),
+    global: css.indexOf('@layer anm-global {'),
+    base: css.indexOf('@layer anm-base {'),
+    variants: css.indexOf('@layer anm-variants {'),
+  };
+  // Assert every position found and in correct order
+  for (const [a, b] of pairs(Object.entries(positions))) {
+    expect(a[1]).toBeLessThan(b[1]);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Alternative considered:** cssnano + prettier normalization (VE's approach). Rejected because it hides the most important bug class for this system.
+
+### 4. Manifest assertions in `_integration`, not `e2e/`
+
+Manifest shape and completeness assertions are added to the existing `packages/_integration` package, not the new `e2e/` workspace.
+
+**Rationale:** Manifest assertions don't need a browser, a dev server, or a fixture app. They test the NAPI boundary output shape — the same level as existing integration tests. Adding them to `_integration` keeps the test tiers clean: `_integration` tests the pipeline at the JS level, `e2e/` tests the delivery mechanism at the build/browser level.
+
+### 5. Phased delivery (Phase 1 now, Phase 2+ earned)
+
+**Phase 1 (this change):**
+- `e2e/vite-app` fixture + structural post-build assertions
+- Manifest completeness assertions in `_integration`
+- Plugin `--verify` self-check flag
+- Upgrade existing shell grep assertions to structural CSS assertions
+
+**Phase 2 (future change, after Phase 1 validates):**
+- `e2e/helpers/` shared test infrastructure (TestServer interface, port management)
+- Playwright browser test: adopted stylesheet verification
+- HMR lifecycle tests (event-driven via WebSocket interception, not polling)
+- Gated CI job (PRs to main only)
+
+**Phase 3 (future, after v1.0 or first users):**
+- VFR screenshot comparison
+- Cross-plugin parity (Vite vs Next same CSS)
+- Additional fixtures (path aliases, error recovery, plugin ordering)
+
+**Rationale:** Per adversarial review — "You are writing tests for bugs that have not been reported by people who do not exist yet." Phase 1 is cheap insurance (one fixture, structural assertions, manifest checks). Phases 2-3 are earned by demonstrating that Phase 1's pattern works and that there's a concrete need.
+
+### 6. NAPI loading contract and CI reliability
+
+A prior CI incident (session 69, bun 1.3.12) proved that NAPI binary loading via package resolution (`createRequire` + `require('@animus-ui/extract')`) is fragile — bun's `createRequire` polyfill matched the `"types"` export condition, loading `index.d.ts` instead of `index.js`. All NAPI functions became `undefined`. The fix: direct file path (`require('../../extract/index.js')`).
+
+This contract is already in place for the 3 existing `_integration` test files. This change formalizes and protects it:
+
+1. **NAPI loading contract**: All `_integration` tests MUST load the NAPI binary via direct file path, not package resolution. Documented in `_integration/CLAUDE.md`.
+2. **Bun version pinning**: `oven-sh/setup-bun@v2` currently installs latest bun. Pin to a known-good version so CI behavior doesn't change without a code change.
+3. **CI binary verification from test context**: The existing CI verification step resolves from repo root (`./packages/extract/index.js`). Add a step that verifies from the actual `_integration` test file context to match real resolution paths.
+
+**Rationale:** Adding more NAPI-dependent tests (manifest-shape.test.ts in Task 6) amplifies the fragility if the loading contract isn't formalized. The incident proved that tests that pass locally can fail silently on CI due to bun version drift. This is the infrastructure reliability foundation that all NAPI-dependent tests depend on.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Switching `_integration` to vitest (Node.js module resolution instead of bun polyfill). Deferred — the direct path workaround is sufficient and avoids introducing a second test runner. Revisit if bun's `createRequire` regresses again.
+
+### 7. Self-verification flag on dev server
+
+The vite-plugin gains a `verify` option (default: false) that runs structural self-checks during `buildStart`:
+- Virtual module IDs resolve correctly
+- `resolvedComponentCss` is non-empty (at least one component extracted)
+- Layer ordering in assembled CSS is structurally correct
+- `variableCss` contains `:root` block
+- No `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders in any CSS output
+
+Logged as `[animus:verify]` prefixed messages. Errors throw in strict mode, warn otherwise.
+
+**Rationale:** 20 lines of code in the plugin, zero dependencies, catches misconfiguration at the integration point without needing external test infrastructure. Complements the build-time assertions with runtime-time verification.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Fixture maintenance when API evolves]** → Phase 1 fixture is 7 components importing from `test-ds` which is already maintained. The fixture's own `ds.ts` is the only file that needs updating when the system API changes. If this proves burdensome, Phase 3 considers generated fixtures.
+
+**[Structural assertions are verbose]** → `indexOf` comparisons are more code than `grep`. Mitigated by extracting shared assertion utilities (`assertLayerOrder`, `assertNoPlaceholders`, `assertClassNameFormat`) into `e2e/helpers/assert-css.ts`, reusable by both vite-app and next-test-app assertions.
+
+**[`storedSheets` compounds gap]** → The QA review identified that `storedSheets` (dev-mode CSS split) has no `compounds` field. This is either a real bug (compound CSS lost in dev) or by design (compounds folded into another layer). Must be investigated during Phase 1 implementation, independent of the test infrastructure.
+
+**[Rust cache isolation]** → `clearAnalysisCache()` is process-global. Phase 2 HMR tests running sequentially in the same process risk cross-contamination. Mitigation: TestServer constructor calls `clearAnalysisCache()` before `buildStart`. Explicit test for isolation.
+
+**[NAPI loading path fragility]** → bun's `createRequire` polyfill has diverged from Node.js semantics before (session 69, bun 1.3.12). The direct path workaround (`require('../../extract/index.js')`) is resilient but must be documented and enforced as convention. New test files that use `require('@animus-ui/extract')` would silently reintroduce the vulnerability. Mitigated by: documenting the contract in `_integration/CLAUDE.md`, pinning bun version in CI, and adding context-aware binary verification.

+## Why
+
+The delivery mechanism between "correct CSS in memory" and "correct CSS in browser" has zero automated coverage. The existing 539 tests across 5 tiers validate extraction correctness at the data level (NAPI boundary snapshots, pipeline integration, JS unit, Rust unit, post-build shell grep). But no test verifies that virtual modules resolve, adopted stylesheets apply, or HMR invalidation propagates correctly in a running Vite or Next.js application. A 20-minute code review of the vite-plugin during this investigation surfaced an actual gap (`storedSheets` missing a `compounds` field in dev-mode split delivery). The existing post-build assertions use shell `grep` — they check string presence but not structural correctness (layer ordering, the core cascade contract).
+
+Additionally, the Vite plugin integration path has no contrived test app. `next-test-app` exists as a minimal Next.js fixture with 7 components and post-build shell assertions. No equivalent exists for Vite — the only Vite validation is the full showcase (22 components, MDX, motion, ark-ui), which is a demo app, not a test harness.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **New top-level `e2e/` workspace directory** — test infrastructure lives outside `packages/`, separating test fixtures from publishable/internal packages
+- **Contrived Vite test app** (`e2e/vite-app`) — minimal Vite fixture mirroring `next-test-app` pattern: 7 components importing `@animus-ui/test-ds`, own `ds.ts`, post-build structural assertions
+- **Upgraded post-build assertions** — replace shell `grep` with position-aware CSS structure parsing (layer order via `indexOf` comparison, not string containment). Applied to both `e2e/vite-app` and backported to existing `next-test-app` and showcase assertions
+- **Plugin self-verification** — `--verify` flag on vite-plugin dev server that runs structural self-checks on startup (virtual module resolution, CSS non-empty, layer order correct)
+- **Manifest completeness assertions** — new integration tests in `_integration` package asserting UniverseManifest shape: reciprocal provenance, fragment existence, dynamic_props correctness
+- **Shared test helpers** (`e2e/helpers/`) — TestServer interface, CSS structural assertion utilities, port management (Phase 2+)
+- **Playwright browser verification** (Phase 2+) — minimal browser test confirming adopted stylesheet delivery
+- **HMR lifecycle tests** (Phase 2+) — event-driven file mutation tests for geological reset, fragment invalidation, extension chain cascade
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `vite-test-app`: Contrived minimal Vite application for integration testing — workspace setup, components, build scripts, structural post-build assertions
+- `structural-css-assertions`: Position-aware CSS assertion utilities replacing shell grep — layer order validation, class name format checks, placeholder/token guards
+- `plugin-self-verify`: Dev server startup self-check flag that validates virtual module resolution, CSS structure, and layer ordering without external test runner
+- `manifest-completeness-testing`: Integration-tier assertions on UniverseManifest shape — provenance reciprocity, fragment coverage, dynamic_props correctness, system_prop_map population
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `showcase-output-assertions`: Upgrade from shell grep to structural CSS assertions
+- `next-test-app-assertions`: Upgrade from shell grep to structural CSS assertions
+- `pipeline-integration-testing`: Add manifest shape and completeness assertions
+
+## Impact
+
+- **New workspace entries**: `e2e/vite-app` added to root `package.json` workspaces
+- **New dependencies**: `@playwright/test` (Phase 2+ only, devDependency in `e2e/`)
+- **Existing test commands unchanged**: `bun test`, `bun run test:canary`, `bun run verify` all work as before
+- **New test commands**: `bun run test:vite-app` (build + assert), `bun run test:e2e` (Phase 2+)
+- **CI additions**: Phase 1 adds `test:vite-app` to `verify:full`. Phase 2+ adds gated Playwright job (PRs to main only)
+- **No changes to published packages** — all additions are private test infrastructure
+- **Post-build assertion scripts** in showcase and next-test-app replaced with shared structural assertion utilities
+- **CI hardening**: bun version pinned in CI workflow, NAPI loading contract documented in `_integration/CLAUDE.md`, binary verification from test context added
+- **NAPI loading contract**: formalized requirement that `_integration` tests use direct file path (`require('../../extract/index.js')`), not package resolution — based on bun 1.3.12 `createRequire` regression incident

+## 0. Test Infrastructure Reliability
+
+- [x] 0.1 Verify `.tool-versions` pins bun to a specific version (currently `bun 1.3.11`) AND `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` references it via `bun-version-file: .tool-versions` in all 4 `oven-sh/setup-bun@v2` steps (already in place — confirm and document the contract)
+- [x] 0.2 Document NAPI loading contract in `packages/_integration/CLAUDE.md`: all tests MUST use `require('../../extract/index.js')` (direct path), never `require('@animus-ui/extract')` (package resolution). Reference the bun 1.3.12 incident.
+- [x] 0.3 Add CI binary verification step that tests NAPI resolution from the `_integration` test file context (not repo root) — verify `analyzeProject` is a function after require
+- [x] 0.4 Add biome lint rule or grep CI check that flags `require('@animus-ui/extract')` in `_integration` test files as a violation of the loading contract
+
+## 1. Shared Assertion Utilities (in `packages/_assertions`)
+
+> Rebased per `e2e-workspace-topology` (2026-04-14): shared assertion utilities live in `packages/_assertions/` (the post-topology home for shared assertions importable by both `packages/*` post-build scripts and `e2e/*` fixture apps), not `e2e/helpers/`. The `_assertions` scaffold was created in advance specifically for this change to populate.
+
+- [x] 1.1 Populate `packages/_assertions/src/assert-css.ts` with structural assertion utilities: `assertLayerOrder()` (position-based), `assertNoPlaceholders()`, `assertClassNameFormat()`, `assertNoUnresolvedTokens()`, `assertNoEmotionImports()`
+- [x] 1.2 Populate `packages/_assertions/src/find-build-assets.ts` with utilities to locate CSS and JS files in `dist/` or `.next/` output directories
+- [x] 1.3 Update `packages/_assertions/src/index.ts` to export the new utilities (replacing the scaffold-only `export {};`)
+- [x] 1.4 Add unit tests at `packages/_assertions/__tests__/assert-css.test.ts` — verify `assertLayerOrder` fails on misordered CSS, passes on correct CSS; verify other utilities behave as specified (also added `__tests__` path to `scripts/verify/unit-ts.sh`)
+- [x] 1.5 Update `packages/_assertions/CLAUDE.md` removing the scaffold-only notice; document the utility surface and consumers
+- [x] 1.6 Build the package (`bun run --filter '@animus-ui/assertions' build:ts`) and confirm `dist/index.js` + `dist/index.d.ts` are emitted
+
+## 2. Vite Test App Fixture (`e2e/vite-app`)
+
+> Rebased per `e2e-workspace-convention` Naming Convention (2026-04-14): package name is `@animus-ui/vite-app` (mirrors the `@animus-ui/next-app` rename), NOT `@animus-ui/vite-test-app` — the convention forbids `e2e`/`test`/`fixture` as prefix/suffix.
+
+- [x] 2.1 Create `e2e/vite-app/package.json` (`@animus-ui/vite-app`, private, `type: module`, deps: `@animus-ui/system`, `@animus-ui/test-ds`, `@animus-ui/vite-plugin`, `react`, `react-dom`, `@vitejs/plugin-react`, `vite`; devDeps include `@animus-ui/assertions` for the assert script)
+- [x] 2.2 Create `e2e/vite-app/vite.config.ts` with `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })` and `react()` plugin
+- [x] 2.3 Create `e2e/vite-app/tsconfig.json` extending root tsconfig
+- [x] 2.4 Create `e2e/vite-app/index.html` entry point
+- [x] 2.5 Create `e2e/vite-app/src/ds.ts` — minimal system definition using `@animus-ui/system` (`createTheme` + `createSystem` + `addGroup` + `.includes([testDs])` + `.build()`); declare-module augment global Theme with the local tokens
+- [x] 2.6 Create component fixtures in `e2e/vite-app/src/components/`: Button (variants + states), Box (system props), Card (base styles), Stack (extension chain parent), StackItem (extension chain child via .extend()), Family (compose() with Root + Child + shared variant), barrel index.ts
+- [x] 2.7 Create `e2e/vite-app/src/App.tsx` and `src/main.tsx` rendering all components with representative prop usage
+- [x] 2.8 Add `"e2e/vite-app"` to root `package.json` workspaces list
+- [x] 2.9 Run `bun install` to link the new workspace package
+- [x] 2.10 Verify `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/vite-app' build` succeeds
+
+## 3. Vite Test App Verify Tiers (`verify:build:vite` + `verify:assert:vite`)
+
+> Rebased per `verification-tier-policy` (2026-04-13): atomic-tier architecture (`verify:build:X` + `verify:assert:X` + composite `verify:X`) replaces the `test:X` combined commands the original tasks assumed. Mirrors the existing `verify:build:next`/`verify:assert:next` pair.
+
+- [x] 3.1 Create `e2e/vite-app/scripts/assert-build.ts` using shared `@animus-ui/assertions` utilities: find CSS in `dist/`, run `assertLayerOrder()` (with a relaxed list pending `fix-lightningcss-cascade`), `assertNoPlaceholders()`, `assertClassNameFormat()`, assert `:root` block exists, `assertNoEmotionImports()` on JS files
+- [x] 3.2 Create `scripts/verify/build-vite.sh` mirroring `scripts/verify/build-next.sh`: source `_preconditions.sh`, `require_fresh_napi`, `require_fresh_package_dist extract|system|vite-plugin|properties`, `exec bun run --filter '@animus-ui/vite-app' build`
+- [x] 3.3 Create `scripts/verify/assert-vite.sh` mirroring `scripts/verify/assert-next.sh`: source `_preconditions.sh`, `require_dir e2e/vite-app/dist 'bun run verify:build:vite'`, `require_fresh_package_dist _assertions`, `exec bun run e2e/vite-app/scripts/assert-build.ts`
+- [x] 3.4 Add `verify:build:vite`, `verify:assert:vite`, and `verify:vite` (composite: `verify:build:vite && verify:assert:vite`) scripts to root `package.json`
+- [x] 3.5 Add `verify:build:vite && verify:assert:vite` to the `verify:full` chain in root `package.json` (and `verify:ci`)
+- [x] 3.6 Run `bun run verify:vite` and verify all assertions pass
+
+## 4. Upgrade Existing Post-Build Assertions to TypeScript
+
+> Rebased per `e2e-workspace-topology` (2026-04-14): Next assertion script lives at `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh` (not `packages/next-test-app/scripts/`). Notes: the existing shell script greps for `@layer base`/`@layer variants` while extracted CSS uses `@layer anm-base`/`@layer anm-variants` — the §11.8 gap from sessions 75/76. The TS rewrite using shared `assertLayerOrder()` resolves this naturally.
+
+- [x] 4.1 Create `scripts/assert-showcase-build.ts` replacing `scripts/assert-showcase.sh` — import shared utilities from `@animus-ui/assertions`, apply position-aware layer order validation, keep all existing checks
+- [x] 4.2 Update `scripts/verify/assert-showcase.sh` to `exec bun run scripts/assert-showcase-build.ts` (added `require_fresh_package_dist _assertions`)
+- [x] 4.3 Create `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-build.ts` replacing `assert-next-build.sh` — uses `layerBlock('anm-base')` / `layerBlock('anm-variants')` with the correct `anm-` prefix, keeps router-specific checks
+- [x] 4.4 Update `scripts/verify/assert-next.sh` to `exec bun run e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-build.ts` (added `require_fresh_package_dist _assertions`)
+- [x] 4.5 Run `bun run verify:assert:showcase` and `bun run verify:assert:next` — both green. **§11.8 layer-name gap resolved** (shell scripts grepped for `@layer base` / `@layer variants`; TS assertions use the correct `@layer anm-base` / `@layer anm-variants`)
+- [x] 4.6 Delete old shell scripts (`scripts/assert-showcase.sh`, `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh`)
+
+## 5. Plugin Self-Verification
+
+- [x] 5.1 Add `verify?: boolean` to `AnimusExtractOptions` type in `packages/vite-plugin/src/`
+- [x] 5.2 Implement verification checks in `buildStart` after analysis: component CSS non-empty, layer ordering correct (`@layer anm-base` precedes `@layer anm-variants`), `:root` block present, no `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders
+- [x] 5.3 Wire verification failures to existing `strict` option: throw in strict mode, warn otherwise
+- [x] 5.4 Prefix all verification output with `[animus:verify]`
+- [x] 5.5 Add `verify: true` to `e2e/vite-app/vite.config.ts` to exercise during builds
+- [x] 5.6 Rebuild vite-plugin (`bun run --filter '@animus-ui/vite-plugin' build:ts`) and verify `bun run verify:vite` still passes
+
+## 6. Manifest Completeness Assertions
+
+- [x] 6.1 Create `packages/_integration/__tests__/manifest-shape.test.ts` — uses `runPipeline()` from `run-pipeline.ts` (which uses direct-path NAPI), no `require('@animus-ui/extract')`
+- [x] 6.2 Implement component descriptor completeness assertions (all required fields non-empty; class_name starts with `animus-`)
+- [x] 6.3 Implement files-to-components consistency assertions (all component_ids in files exist in components + descriptor.file matches)
+- [x] 6.4 Implement provenance reciprocity assertions (reverse_provenance ↔ extends_from — both directions)
+- [x] 6.5 Implement fragment consistency assertions (fragments keys ⊆ components keys, extracted components have non-empty fragments)
+- [x] 6.6 Implement dynamic props boundary test: fully static button.tsx fixture → zero dynamic_props; dynamic prop entries carry `var_name` / `slot_class` / `property` metadata
+- [x] 6.7 Implement system_prop_map validation: used props present, class names prefixed with `animus-u-` (the actual utility class prefix — the spec's `anm-` was stale, delta specs corrected inline)
+- [x] 6.8 Run `bun run verify:integration` — 98/98 pass
+
+## 7. Investigation: storedSheets Compounds Gap
+
+- [x] 7.1 Inspect `CssSheets` struct in `css_generator.rs` — `compounds: String` field present (line 80). Declaration header includes compounds in the `@layer global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom;` sequence
+- [x] 7.2 Inspect vite-plugin's `storedSheets` usage — TS type at line 284 was MISSING the `compounds` field. Runtime impact was minor (compound CSS is still delivered via `resolvedComponentCss`), but the per-layer split representation was incomplete vs the Rust struct
+- [x] 7.3 Gap resolved INLINE during investigation: added `compounds: string` to the `storedSheets` type in `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`, added a comment cross-referencing `css_generator.rs` so the types stay in sync; no separate openspec issue needed
+
+## 8. Verification & Documentation
+
+- [x] 8.1 Run `bun run verify` — captured via the `verify:full` composite (below) which chains `verify` + integration + build + assert
+- [x] 8.2 Run `bun run verify:full` — EXIT 0. All 12 atomic tiers green (lint, compile, types, unit:ts, unit:rust, canary, integration, build:next, build:showcase, build:vite, assert:next, assert:showcase, assert:vite)
+- [x] 8.3 Confirm `bun run verify:assert:next` and `verify:assert:showcase` pass under the upgraded TS assertions — **§11.8 closed** (the shell-layer-name-gap resolved by `layerBlock('anm-base')` / `layerBlock('anm-variants')` in the TS rewrite)
+- [x] 8.4 Run `bun run check` — biome clean (added a `scripts/**` override for `noConsole` since the new TS assertion scripts are CLI entry points, matching the existing `vite-plugin/**` / `next-plugin/**` exemptions)
+- [x] 8.5 Update `packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md` with `verify` option documentation (new section covers strict-throws/warn behavior, `[animus:verify]` prefix, pairing with assertion scripts)
+- [x] 8.6 Update root `CLAUDE.md`:
+  - Added `verify:build:vite` and `verify:assert:vite` rows to Atomic Tiers table
+  - Added `verify:vite` row to Composite Orchestrators table
+  - Updated `verify:assert:next` / `verify:assert:showcase` precondition entries to include `fresh _assertions/dist/`
+  - Added Change-Type Map rows for `e2e/vite-app/src/**` and `packages/_assertions/src/**`
+  - Broadened `packages/vite-plugin/src/**` row to also include `verify:vite`
+- [x] 8.7 Update `.claude/rules/TESTING.md`: frontmatter paths updated (added new TS assertion scripts, removed old shell path); Tiers list has accurate `e2e/next-app/.next/` path and new `verify:assert:vite` entry

+## Context
+
+The CI pipeline has three jobs: `lint` (parallel), `build-extract` (builds NAPI binary), and `verify` (downloads binary, builds TS, runs tests). Commit `58e4dad` moved `cargo test --lib` from `build-extract` to `verify`, requiring Rust toolchain and `Swatinem/rust-cache@v2` to be added to `verify`.
+
+Current `verify` step order:
+```
+checkout → bun → download .node → bun install → rust toolchain → rust cache → build TS → cargo test → compile → bun test
+```
+
+The Rust cache step restores `packages/extract/target/` between the binary download and test execution. Integration tests fail with NAPI functions being `undefined` — the binary either gets corrupted, displaced, or bun's module resolution is disrupted by the cache restore touching the workspace directory.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Restore green CI by isolating Rust unit tests from the verify pipeline
+- Add observability for NAPI binary status in CI
+- Keep `cargo test --lib` running in CI (just in the right place)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Diagnosing the exact Swatinem/rust-cache interaction (pragmatic fix over root-cause archaeology)
+- Changing the NAPI binary build process
+- Modifying package.json exports or module resolution
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. Move `cargo test --lib` back to `build-extract`
+
+Restore the original position: Rust unit tests run in `build-extract` before the NAPI binary build. This is where Rust toolchain and cache already exist.
+
+**Why not keep in verify?** The Rust cache/toolchain setup in `verify` is the only new variable correlating with the failure. Removing it is the minimal change.
+
+**Why not a separate parallel job?** Adds CI complexity for no benefit. The tests share the same Rust compilation with `napi build` — running them sequentially in `build-extract` reuses cached artifacts.
+
+### 2. Add binary verification step in `verify`
+
+After downloading the binary and running `bun install`, add:
+```yaml
+- name: Verify NAPI binary
+  run: |
+    ls -la packages/extract/*.node
+    bun -e "const m = require('./packages/extract/index.js'); console.log('NAPI exports:', Object.keys(m));"
+```
+
+This catches future binary issues immediately with clear diagnostics instead of cryptic "not a function" errors downstream.
+
+### 3. Remove Rust toolchain/cache from `verify`
+
+With `cargo test --lib` back in `build-extract`, there's no need for Rust in `verify`. Removing it simplifies the job and eliminates the interference vector.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk] build-extract takes slightly longer** → Acceptable; cargo test was always there before and shares compilation cache with napi build
+- **[Risk] Root cause unknown** → The verification step provides diagnostics if the issue resurfaces. Pragmatic over perfect.
+- **[Risk] cargo test failure blocks binary upload** → This is desired behavior; a failing test suite should not produce a release binary

+## Why
+
+Commit `58e4dad` ("fix tests") moved `cargo test --lib` from the `build-extract` CI job into the `verify` job. This required adding Rust toolchain setup and `Swatinem/rust-cache@v2` to `verify`. The Rust cache restore step now runs AFTER the NAPI binary download — and the integration tests fail with `TypeError: clearAnalysisCache is not a function`, indicating `require('@animus-ui/extract')` returns a module without NAPI functions. The fix works locally; the failure is CI-only.
+
+The root cause is the Rust cache/toolchain setup in `verify` interfering with the downloaded `.node` binary. The simplest fix: remove the Rust unit test step from `verify` entirely and restore it to `build-extract` where it ran before, eliminating the need for Rust toolchain/cache in the verify job.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Revert verify job**: Remove Rust toolchain, Rust cache, and `cargo test --lib` steps from the `verify` job
+- **Restore build-extract**: Move `cargo test --lib` back into `build-extract`, running before the NAPI binary build (original position)
+- **Add binary verification**: Add a diagnostic step in `verify` after binary download to confirm the `.node` file exists and is loadable
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `ci-napi-binary-verification`: Add a verification step in the verify job that confirms the downloaded NAPI binary is present and loadable before running tests
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `build-verification`: Restore Rust unit tests to `build-extract` job, remove Rust toolchain/cache from `verify` job
+
+## Impact
+
+- `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` — revert verify job structure, restore build-extract test step
+- No code changes — this is purely CI pipeline configuration
+- Build times: `build-extract` slightly longer (adds cargo test back), `verify` slightly shorter (removes Rust setup)

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Rust unit tests run independently from NAPI binary build
+A dedicated `test-rust` CI job SHALL run `cargo test --lib` in debug profile. The `build-extract` job builds NAPI binaries without running tests. The `verify` job depends on both (`needs: [build-extract, test-rust]`) and SHALL NOT include Rust toolchain setup, Rust cache, or `cargo test --lib`.
+
+#### Scenario: Rust tests pass in dedicated job
+- **WHEN** CI runs the `test-rust` job
+- **THEN** `cargo test --lib` executes with its own Rust toolchain and cache, independent of the NAPI binary build matrix
+
+#### Scenario: Rust tests fail
+- **WHEN** `cargo test --lib` fails in `test-rust`
+- **THEN** the `verify` job is blocked (via `needs` dependency), preventing the pipeline from proceeding
+
+#### Scenario: build-extract is test-free
+- **WHEN** `build-extract` runs on each platform matrix entry
+- **THEN** it builds and uploads the NAPI binary without running `cargo test --lib`
+
+#### Scenario: Verify job has no Rust dependencies
+- **WHEN** the `verify` job runs
+- **THEN** it does not install Rust toolchain, does not restore Rust cache, and does not run `cargo test --lib`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: NAPI binary verification steps in verify job
+The `verify` CI job SHALL include two verification steps after binary download and `bun install` that confirm the NAPI binary is present and loadable from both the repo root and the `_integration` test context. The steps MUST run before any build or test execution.
+
+#### Scenario: Binary present and loadable from repo root
+- **WHEN** the verify job downloads the NAPI binary and runs `bun install`
+- **THEN** the "Verify NAPI binary (repo root context)" step lists the `.node` file with size and prints the NAPI export keys via `require('./packages/extract/index.js')`
+
+#### Scenario: Binary present and loadable from _integration context
+- **WHEN** the verify job downloads the NAPI binary and runs `bun install`
+- **THEN** the "Verify NAPI binary (_integration context)" step confirms `analyzeProject` is a function when loaded via `require('../../extract/index.js')` from the `packages/_integration/__tests__` working directory
+
+#### Scenario: Binary missing or corrupt
+- **WHEN** the `.node` file is missing or fails to load
+- **THEN** the verification step fails with a clear error message before any test execution

+## Context
+
+Lightning CSS `transform()` is used by `postProcessCss()` in the vite-plugin for autoprefixing and optional minification. It destructively rewrites `@layer` declarations, displaces `:root` variables, and consolidates shorthand/longhand declarations — all baked into the parse→serialize roundtrip with no configuration to disable.
+
+The current flow: `assembleStylesheet()` produces a single CSS string → `postProcessCss()` runs Lightning CSS on it → returned from `load()` hook. The assembly ordering is correct; Lightning CSS's round-trip behavior corrupts it.
+
+Vite does NOT run Lightning CSS on virtual module CSS by default (it uses PostCSS + esbuild for minification). Our `postProcessCss` is the only Lightning CSS pass.
+
+The next-plugin does not use Lightning CSS — it writes CSS to disk via `writeFileSync`. This bug is vite-plugin only, but the structural split benefits both plugins.
+
+**Empirical findings (session 78):**
+- Lightning CSS consolidates properties even with `minify: false` — the `padding: 8px; padding-left: 12px;` → `padding: 8px 8px 8px 12px;` collapse is in the core transform, not just minification.
+- esbuild preserves `@layer` declarations, `:root` position, and declaration order. It only consolidates during minification, and even then preserves file-level structure.
+- Lightning CSS's `include`/`exclude` flags control transpilation features (vendor prefixes, nesting), NOT property consolidation. No knob exists.
+- Upstream: lightningcss#805 (property order shuffling), #146 (shorthand prevention), rspack#7921 (downstream breakage).
+- Autoprefixing benefit is minimal for modern targets: empirically just `-webkit-user-select: none`.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Preserve the full `@layer` cascade declaration in both dev and prod output
+- Preserve `:root` variable CSS position (before layer blocks, unlayered)
+- Keep autoprefixing for layer block content (the useful part of Lightning CSS)
+- Validate that multi-target prop expansion through our tier system produces correct CSS after consolidation
+- Both Vite and Next.js plugins consume the split assembly form
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Removing Lightning CSS entirely (it provides value for autoprefixing; full removal is a separate decision)
+- Changing the Rust-side CSS generation (it emits correctly — tier-ordered, shorthands first)
+- Changing the tier system design (tier 0→1→2→3 ordering is correct and intentional)
+- Filing upstream Lightning CSS issues (can be done independently)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Split `assembleStylesheet` return type
+
+**Choice:** `assembleStylesheet` gains a `split?: boolean` option. When `split: true`, returns `{ declaration: string; variables: string; body: string }` instead of a single string.
+
+- `declaration`: the `@layer` ordering statement — never post-processed
+- `variables`: `:root` variable CSS + color mode selectors — never post-processed
+- `body`: global CSS + component CSS — post-processed by Lightning CSS for autoprefixing
+
+**Why structured return over regex splitting:** The assembler already knows the parts. Regex-based `splitDeclarationFromBody` is fragile — the declaration format could change, edge cases with comments or whitespace. Returning parts separately is structurally correct.
+
+**Why three-part split (not two-part):** `variables` contains `:root` blocks and `[data-color-mode]` selectors. These are unlayered CSS that:
+1. Lightning CSS displaces to end of file
+2. Contain only CSS custom properties (no autoprefixing needed)
+3. Are structurally part of the preamble — they belong before layer blocks
+
+Separating variables from body prevents both the `:root` displacement and any future post-processor from touching custom property declarations.
+
+### Decision 2: Backward-compatible overload
+
+**Choice:** Default call (no `split` option) continues returning a single concatenated string. The `split: true` form is opt-in. Existing tests and any external consumers are unaffected.
+
+**Why:** `assembleStylesheet` is exported from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`. Changing the default return type is a breaking API change. The next-plugin, integration tests, and canary tests all consume the string form today.
+
+### Decision 3: Global CSS goes through Lightning CSS
+
+`@layer anm-global { ... }` contains authored CSS (resets, global styles) that may use properties needing autoprefixing (e.g., `-webkit-font-smoothing`). It passes through Lightning CSS alongside component CSS as part of the `body` segment.
+
+### Decision 4: Dev adopted stylesheet path also protected
+
+In dev mode, component CSS goes through the adopted stylesheet bridge (`RESOLVED_COMPONENTS_ID`). This path passes `resolvedComponentCss` to `postProcessCss`. The component CSS from Rust may contain an embedded `@layer` declaration (from `sheets.declaration`). This must be stripped before post-processing via `stripLeadingLayerDeclaration` (already exists in assemble-stylesheet.ts).
+
+### Decision 5: Round-trip test uses real NAPI pipeline
+
+The cascade correctness test must exercise the REAL Rust pipeline (via `analyzeProject`) rather than hand-constructing CSS. This validates the actual tier ordering, multi-target expansion, and theme resolution — the full bridge from JS object to CSS. The test then passes the emitted CSS through Lightning CSS `transform()` and verifies computed values match expectations.
+
+### Decision 6: `@layer` declaration delivered via HTML `<style>` tag (Vite only)
+
+**Choice:** The `@layer` declaration is injected into the HTML document head as a `<style>` tag via Vite's `transformIndexHtml` hook, rather than included in the CSS virtual module.
+
+**Why not keep it in the virtual module:** Vite's own CSS pipeline (esbuild minification) runs after our `load()` hook returns. It processes the combined CSS output and strips `@layer` declarations that have matching `@layer name { ... }` blocks in the same file. This is Vite-internal behavior, not our Lightning CSS call — the split protects from our post-processing but not from Vite's. Confirmed empirically: showcase prod output showed `@layer reset;` (only orphan layers preserved) instead of the full declaration.
+
+**Why `transformIndexHtml`:**
+- `order: 'pre'` runs before Vite's own HTML transforms
+- `injectTo: 'head-prepend'` places the `<style>` as the first child of `<head>`, before any `<link>` or JS-injected stylesheets
+- In dev mode, fires on every page load (not HMR — but the declaration is config-time and never changes mid-session)
+- In prod mode, bakes directly into `dist/index.html`
+
+**Why Next plugin is unchanged:** Next.js's CSS pipeline does not strip `@layer` declarations. The CSS import approach (webpack `processAssets` hook) preserves structural metadata. No HTML injection is needed.
+
+**Why variables stay in the virtual module:** Lightning CSS does not destructively rewrite CSS custom properties. `:root` variable blocks and color mode selectors survive both our `postProcessCss` and Vite's internal processing intact. Only the `@layer` declaration is vulnerable.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Lightning CSS may strip the `@layer` declaration from the body too** → The body only contains `@layer name { ... }` blocks, never the standalone declaration. Lightning CSS strips declarations when blocks for those layers exist in the same input. Since the standalone declaration is removed from the body, this risk is eliminated by design.
+
+**[Risk] Consumers using `assembleStylesheet` directly get a different return type** → Mitigated by Decision 2: split is opt-in, default return is unchanged.
+
+**[Risk] Dev mode adopted stylesheet path** → Mitigated by Decision 4: strip `@layer` declaration before `postProcessCss` in the bridge path.
+
+**[Risk] Property consolidation still occurs in body segment** → Yes, Lightning CSS will still consolidate shorthand/longhand within the body. This is semantically correct (computed values match) but destroys structural debuggability. The round-trip test (Decision 5) validates correctness. Full removal of Lightning CSS is deferred to a separate decision.
+
+**[Risk] Vite internal CSS pipeline strips structural metadata** → RESOLVED by Decision 6. The `@layer` declaration never enters the CSS pipeline — it's delivered via HTML `<style>` tag injection.
+
+**[Risk] `transformIndexHtml` doesn't fire on HMR** → Acceptable. The `@layer` declaration is derived from the `layers` plugin option, which is config-time and static. It doesn't change during a dev session. Full page refresh picks up any config change.
+
+**[Risk] SSR / non-SPA Vite usage** → `transformIndexHtml` has different behavior in SSR mode. The current plugin is SPA-focused. SSR support can be addressed as a follow-up if needed.
+
+**[Trade-off] Keeping Lightning CSS vs dropping it** → This change protects the preamble without removing Lightning CSS. The remaining consolidation in the body is semantically correct. Dropping Lightning CSS entirely would give full structural preservation but loses autoprefixing. That's a separate, larger decision.

+## Why
+
+Lightning CSS `transform()` destructively rewrites our CSS in ways that break structural intent. Three distinct mutations, confirmed empirically in session 78:
+
+1. **`@layer` declaration stripped** — layer names with matching blocks are removed; ordering falls back to fragile first-appearance ordering.
+2. **`:root` variables displaced to end** — after all `@layer` blocks, violating the canonical preamble ordering.
+3. **Shorthand/longhand consolidation** — `padding: 8px; padding-left: 12px;` becomes `padding: 8px 8px 8px 12px;` even with `minify: false`. This is baked into Lightning CSS's parse→serialize roundtrip (confirmed: no config option to disable, upstream issues lightningcss#805, #146). Our Rust pipeline emits tier-ordered declarations (shorthand-first) that Lightning CSS silently collapses, masking tier-ordering bugs and destroying debuggable structure.
+
+The only value Lightning CSS provides is autoprefixing (`-webkit-user-select` for modern targets) and minification — both available through Vite's native pipeline (PostCSS + esbuild) without the destructive rewriting.
+
+Tailwind CSS tolerates Lightning CSS because utilities are single-property-per-class. Our component CSS has multi-property rules where declaration order encodes tier semantics (tier 0 shorthands → tier 1 multi-target → tier 2 longhands). This structural incompatibility is fundamental, not configurable.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Split `assembleStylesheet` return type**: new structured form returning `{ declaration, variables, body }` so consumers can protect preamble content from any CSS post-processor. Backward-compatible — string return remains the default.
+- **Vite plugin uses split assembly**: `@layer` declaration and `:root` variables bypass `postProcessCss`; only the body (global + component CSS) passes through Lightning CSS for autoprefixing.
+- **Next plugin uses split assembly**: structural clarity — writes declaration, variables, and body as distinct segments even though it doesn't use Lightning CSS. Enables future adoption of any CSS post-processor without re-discovering the same pitfalls.
+- **Round-trip cascade correctness test**: new integration test that validates every multi-target shorthand combination (px+pl, py+pt, p+px+pl, etc.) through the full pipeline — Rust emission → Lightning CSS consolidation → computed value verification. Covers the "bridge" between JS object intent and final CSS.
+- **Dev adopted stylesheet path protected**: the `RESOLVED_COMPONENTS_ID` load path strips any embedded `@layer` declaration from component CSS before passing to `postProcessCss`.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `css-post-processing-split`: structured stylesheet assembly with protected preamble, enabling CSS post-processors to operate on body content without destroying cascade declarations or variable positioning.
+- `cascade-round-trip-testing`: integration test suite validating that multi-target prop expansion (px, py, mx, my) through tier-ordered emission and CSS post-processing produces correct computed values for all shorthand/longhand combinations.
+- `layer-declaration-delivery`: `@layer` cascade declaration delivered via HTML `<style>` tag in Vite (bypassing all CSS pipelines), inline in CSS for Next.js (where the pipeline preserves it). Host-appropriate delivery ensures the declaration reaches the browser intact regardless of downstream processing.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `css-post-processing`: existing capability gains the split assembly contract; vite-plugin `postProcessCss` now operates on body-only content; declaration removed from virtual module output (Vite only).
+- `extract-pipeline`: `assembleStylesheet` gains overloaded return type (string | structured) via `split` option.
+
+## Phase 2: HTML-Injected Layer Declaration (Vite Pipeline Bypass)
+
+Session 78 discovered that the split alone is insufficient for Vite prod builds. Vite's own CSS pipeline (esbuild minification) runs AFTER our `load()` hook returns — it processes the concatenated virtual module output and strips `@layer` declarations that have matching blocks in the same file. This is not our Lightning CSS call; it's Vite-internal and unavoidable for CSS virtual modules.
+
+**Solution:** Remove the `@layer` declaration from the CSS virtual module entirely. Inject it as a `<style>` tag in the HTML `<head>` via Vite's `transformIndexHtml` hook with `order: 'pre'` and `injectTo: 'head-prepend'`. The declaration is cascade metadata, not styles — it belongs in the document, not in a stylesheet that gets processed.
+
+This approach:
+- Completely sidesteps both our Lightning CSS and Vite's esbuild CSS processing
+- Guarantees the declaration is the first thing in `<head>`, before any `<link>` or JS-injected stylesheets
+- Fires on every page load in dev (sufficient — declaration is config-time, doesn't change during HMR)
+- Bakes into `dist/index.html` in prod builds
+- Requires NO changes to the Next plugin (Next's CSS pipeline doesn't strip `@layer` declarations)
+
+Variables (`:root` blocks) remain in the virtual CSS module — Lightning CSS doesn't destructively rewrite custom properties, and variables need no special protection.
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/extract/pipeline/assemble-stylesheet.ts` — new `split` option, new return type, new exported interface
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts` — 3 call sites updated to use split assembly; `postProcessCss` receives body-only CSS; new `transformIndexHtml` hook injects `@layer` declaration into HTML head; `load()` hook no longer includes declaration in virtual module output
+- `packages/next-plugin/src/plugin.ts` — 2 call sites updated to use split assembly for structural clarity (no HTML injection — not needed)
+- `packages/_integration/__tests__/` — new round-trip cascade test file
+- `packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts` — existing `assembleStylesheet` tests gain split-mode coverage
+- Existing integration test `post-processing.test.ts` — updated to cover split assembly

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Multi-target prop combinations produce correct CSS through Lightning CSS
+For every combination of multi-target shorthand + overlapping longhand + true shorthand, the CSS emitted by the Rust pipeline and then consolidated by Lightning CSS `transform()` SHALL produce the same computed property values as the un-consolidated CSS would in a browser.
+
+#### Scenario: px + pl — tier 1 multi-target + tier 2 longhand
+- **GIVEN** a component with `styles({ px: 4, pl: 8 })`
+- **WHEN** the emitted CSS is passed through Lightning CSS `transform({ minify: false })`
+- **THEN** the consolidated output SHALL have `padding-left` equal to the `pl` value (longhand wins over multi-target's padding-left)
+- **AND** `padding-right` SHALL equal the `px` value
+
+#### Scenario: py + pt — tier 1 multi-target + tier 2 longhand
+- **GIVEN** a component with `styles({ py: 4, pt: 8 })`
+- **WHEN** the emitted CSS is passed through Lightning CSS
+- **THEN** `padding-top` SHALL equal the `pt` value (longhand wins)

+- **AND** `padding-right` SHALL equal the `px` value (tier 1 wins over tier 0)
+- **AND** `padding-top` and `padding-bottom` SHALL equal the `p` value (tier 0, uncontested)
+
+#### Scenario: px + py + pt — two tier 1 props + tier 2 override
+- **GIVEN** a component with `styles({ px: 4, py: 4, pt: 8 })`
+- **WHEN** the emitted CSS is passed through Lightning CSS
+- **THEN** `padding-top` SHALL equal the `pt` value (tier 2 wins over py's padding-top)
+- **AND** all other sides SHALL equal the `px`/`py` values
+
+#### Scenario: Margin equivalents
+- **GIVEN** components with `styles({ mx: 4, ml: 8 })`, `styles({ m: 12, mx: 8, ml: 4 })`, `styles({ my: 4, mt: 8 })`
+- **WHEN** the emitted CSS is passed through Lightning CSS

+
+### Requirement: esbuild minification preserves the same computed values
+For the same set of multi-target prop combinations, CSS passed through esbuild `transform({ minify: true, loader: 'css' })` SHALL produce the same computed property values as the original un-consolidated CSS.
+
+#### Scenario: esbuild consolidation matches Lightning CSS

+## NEW Capability: layer-declaration-delivery
+
+The `@layer` cascade declaration is structural metadata that establishes layer ordering for the entire document. It must reach the browser intact and before any stylesheet content. The delivery mechanism varies by plugin host.
+
+### Requirement: Vite delivers layer declaration via HTML style tag
+
+The Vite plugin SHALL inject the `@layer` ordering declaration into the HTML document head as a `<style>` tag, bypassing all CSS processing pipelines (both the plugin's Lightning CSS pass and Vite's internal esbuild minification).
+
+#### Scenario: Declaration injected as first head child
+- **WHEN** the Vite plugin's `transformIndexHtml` hook fires (dev page load or prod build)
+- **THEN** it SHALL return an `HtmlTagDescriptor` with `tag: 'style'`, `injectTo: 'head-prepend'`, and `order: 'pre'`
+- **AND** the `<style>` tag children SHALL contain the full `@layer` declaration (e.g., `@layer anm-global, anm-base, anm-variants, anm-compounds, anm-states, anm-system, anm-custom;`)
+- **AND** the declaration SHALL reflect custom layers if configured via the plugin `layers` option
+
+#### Scenario: Declaration absent from CSS virtual module
+- **WHEN** the virtual module `virtual:animus/styles.css` is loaded (dev or prod)
+- **THEN** the returned CSS SHALL NOT contain the `@layer` ordering declaration
+- **AND** the CSS SHALL begin with variable CSS (`:root` blocks) followed by processed body content
+
+#### Scenario: Declaration survives Vite prod build
+- **WHEN** a Vite prod build completes
+- **THEN** `dist/index.html` SHALL contain a `<style>` tag in `<head>` with the `@layer` declaration
+- **AND** the declaration SHALL appear before any `<link>` stylesheet references
+
+#### Scenario: Declaration stable across HMR
+- **WHEN** a file change triggers HMR in Vite dev mode
+- **THEN** the `@layer` declaration in the HTML `<style>` tag SHALL remain unchanged
+- **AND** `transformIndexHtml` does not fire on HMR (only on page load), which is correct because the declaration is config-time and static
+
+### Requirement: Next.js delivers layer declaration inline in CSS
+
+The Next.js plugin SHALL continue delivering the `@layer` declaration as part of the assembled CSS string. Next.js's CSS pipeline (webpack + built-in processing) does not strip `@layer` declarations, so no HTML injection is needed.
+
+#### Scenario: Next.js CSS contains declaration
+- **WHEN** the Next.js plugin assembles the full CSS via `assembleStylesheet({ split: true })`
+- **THEN** the CSS written to `.animus/styles.css` SHALL contain the `@layer` declaration followed by variables followed by body
+- **AND** the declaration SHALL survive Next.js's CSS processing intact

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Stylesheet assembly produces structured parts for selective post-processing
+The `assembleStylesheet` function SHALL support a `split` option that returns structured parts enabling callers to protect the `@layer` declaration and variable CSS from post-processing transforms that destructively rewrite CSS structure. The three-part split separates declaration, variables, and body so that only body content (which benefits from autoprefixing) passes through CSS post-processors.
+
+#### Scenario: Split return provides three parts
+- **WHEN** `assembleStylesheet` is called with `{ split: true }` along with `layers`, `variableCss`, `globalCss`, and `componentCss`
+- **THEN** it SHALL return `{ declaration: string; variables: string; body: string }`
+- **AND** `declaration` SHALL contain only the `@layer` ordering statement
+- **AND** `variables` SHALL contain only the variable CSS (`:root` blocks + color mode selectors)
+- **AND** `body` SHALL contain global CSS followed by component CSS
+- **AND** no content SHALL be duplicated across the three parts
+
+#### Scenario: Declaration contains all layer names
+- **WHEN** custom layers `['reset', 'anm-global', 'anm-base', ..., 'overrides']` are provided
+- **THEN** the declaration SHALL contain `@layer reset, anm-global, anm-base, anm-variants, anm-compounds, anm-states, anm-system, anm-custom, overrides;`
+- **AND** no layer name SHALL be omitted regardless of whether matching `@layer` blocks exist in the body
+
+#### Scenario: Variable CSS isolated from body
+- **WHEN** `variableCss` contains `:root { --color-primary: red; }` and `[data-color-mode="dark"] { --color-primary: blue; }`
+- **THEN** `variables` SHALL contain the full variable CSS
+- **AND** `body` SHALL NOT contain any `:root` variable declarations or color mode selectors
+
+#### Scenario: Body strips embedded layer declaration from component CSS
+- **WHEN** component CSS from Rust contains an embedded `@layer ...;` declaration line
+- **THEN** the `body` field SHALL have that declaration stripped (via `stripLeadingLayerDeclaration`)
+- **AND** only the `declaration` field SHALL contain the `@layer` ordering statement
+
+#### Scenario: Concatenated split equals non-split return
+- **WHEN** `assembleStylesheet` is called with identical options, once with `split: true` and once without
+- **THEN** joining `declaration + '\n' + variables + '\n' + body` from the split form SHALL produce the same content as the non-split string return
+
+### Requirement: Backward compatibility for assembleStylesheet consumers
+The `assembleStylesheet` function SHALL maintain backward compatibility for existing consumers that expect a string return.
+
+#### Scenario: Default call returns string
+- **WHEN** `assembleStylesheet` is called without a `split` option
+- **THEN** it SHALL return a single concatenated CSS string (declaration + variables + global + component)
+- **AND** existing consumers SHALL continue to work without changes

+# Tasks: fix-lightningcss-cascade
+
+## 1. assembleStylesheet split return
+

+- [x] Add `split?: boolean` option to `AssembleStylesheetOptions`
+- [x] Implement overloaded return: when `split: true`, return `AssembleStylesheetParts` where declaration = `@layer` statement, variables = variableCss, body = globalCss + componentCss (with embedded `@layer` declaration stripped)
+- [x] Default (no split) continues returning a single concatenated string for backward compatibility
+- [x] Export `AssembleStylesheetParts` from `packages/extract/pipeline/index.ts`

+- [x] Run `postProcessCss` on `body` only
+- [x] Concatenate back: `declaration + '\n' + variables + '\n' + processedBody` as the single return value (one virtual module, one CSS output) — **SUPERSEDED by §10**: declaration now moves to HTML `<style>` tag; `load()` returns `variables + '\n' + processedBody` only

+
+## 6. Canary test coverage
+
+- [x] Add split-mode tests to `packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts` in the existing `assembleStylesheet: anm- layer names` describe block

+- [x] Test: `declaration` contains `@layer` statement, not in `body`
+- [x] Test: `variables` contains `:root` block, not in `body`
+- [x] Test: `body` contains `@layer anm-global {`, `@layer anm-base {`, etc.
+- [x] Test: concatenated `declaration + variables + body` equals non-split return

+
+## 11. Verification (Phase 2 — HTML injection)

+## Context
+
+The Rust extraction pipeline's `resolve_path` closure in `project_analyzer.rs:443` has two branches:
+1. Relative paths (`starts_with('.')`) → `resolve_relative_path()` with extension probing
+2. Everything else → `resolve_package_path()` via package map from the plugin
+
+tsconfig path aliases like `@admin/components/Button` are neither relative nor package specifiers — they fall through both branches and resolve to `None`. The binding is silently dropped, breaking `.extend()` provenance chains.
+
+Meanwhile, the host bundler already knows about these aliases. In Vite, `config.resolve.alias` (available in `configResolved`) contains the merged result of `vite-tsconfig-paths`, manual `resolve.alias` config, and any other alias plugins. In Next.js/webpack, `config.resolve.alias` is similarly available in the webpack config callback.
+
+The previous proposal (archived: `path-alias-resolution`) attempted to reimplement tsconfig resolution in Rust. Three independent reviews identified this as over-engineering — the host already solved alias resolution. We should consume, not reimplement.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Forward the host bundler's resolved aliases to the Rust pipeline
+- Enable `.extend()` provenance chains to resolve across aliased imports
+- Zero-config for consumers (aliases are already configured in Vite/webpack)
+- Both vite-plugin and next-plugin benefit
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Implementing tsconfig resolution (the host handles this)
+- Supporting `baseUrl`-only resolution without `paths` (rare, complex, separate concern)
+- Handling `package.json` `imports` field (`#foo/*` aliases — separate concern)
+- Resolving aliases that point outside the file discovery root (documented limitation)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Consume `config.resolve.alias` from the host
+
+**Choice:** Each plugin reads the host's resolved alias map, normalizes it, and passes it to Rust.
+
+- **Vite plugin:** Read `config.resolve.alias` in `configResolved` hook. This map is already merged — if the user has `vite-tsconfig-paths`, its output is included. If they use manual `resolve.alias`, that's included. We get exactly what Vite uses.
+- **Next plugin:** Read `config.resolve.alias` in the `webpack()` callback in `with-animus.ts`. Same pattern — Next.js has already resolved tsconfig paths into webpack aliases.
+
+**Why not read tsconfig.json directly:** Divergence risk. If the user's `vite-tsconfig-paths` is configured with a custom `root` or `projects` option, or if tsconfig uses `extends` chains, a separate read could disagree with what Vite actually uses. Reading the host's output is always correct by definition.
+
+**Why not use `this.resolve()` per-import:** NAPI boundary crossing per call is expensive. At ~600 imports, that's 600 async calls during `buildStart`. The alias map is static per build — serialize once, O(1) overhead.
+
+### Decision 2: Normalized alias shape for NAPI boundary
+
+Both plugins serialize to the same JSON shape:
+
+```json
+{
+  "aliases": [
+    { "pattern": "@admin/", "replacement": "src/", "type": "prefix" },
+    { "pattern": "@config", "replacement": "src/config.ts", "type": "exact" }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Two types:
+- `prefix`: `@admin/components/Button` → strip `@admin/`, prepend `src/` → `src/components/Button`
+- `exact`: `@config` → `src/config.ts` (no wildcard, direct replacement)
+
+Ordered array, not map — first match wins (matches TypeScript's declaration-order semantics).
+
+### Decision 3: Third branch in resolve_path closure
+
+```rust
+let resolve_path = |current_file: &str, source: &str| -> Option<String> {
+    if source.starts_with('.') {
+        resolve_relative_path(current_file, source, &file_paths_set_clone)
+    } else if let Some(expanded) = expand_alias(source, &aliases) {
+        probe_known_files(&expanded, &file_paths_set_clone)
+    } else {
+        resolve_package_path(source)
+    }
+};
+```
+
+`expand_alias` does prefix or exact matching. `probe_known_files` does the same extension probing as `resolve_relative_path` but relative to project root (since alias expansions are root-relative).
+
+### Decision 4: Extract extension probing into shared helper
+
+Currently `resolve_relative_path` joins the import source relative to the importing file's directory, then probes extensions. The alias path needs the same probing but against root-relative expanded paths. Extract the extension-probing logic (`.ts`, `.tsx`, `.js`, `.jsx`, `/index.*`) into `probe_known_files(candidate, known_files)` and call it from both `resolve_relative_path` and the alias branch.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Alias points outside discovery root** → `@shared/*` → `../../packages/shared/src/*` resolves to a path outside the plugin's file walk. Those files won't be in the known file set, so the probe returns None. Mitigation: document as known limitation. The user can add those directories to the plugin's include paths if needed. Emit a debug-level log when an alias expands but no file matches.
+
+**[Risk] Vite `resolve.alias` shape varies** → Vite accepts aliases as `{ find: string|RegExp, replacement: string }[]` or `Record<string, string>`. The normalization layer in the plugin must handle both shapes. This is well-documented Vite API.
+
+**[Risk] NAPI parameter count (now 13)** → Manageable for now. A future consolidation pass could group parameters into a single config struct, but that's a separate change affecting all callers.
+
+**[Risk] Alias ordering in webpack** → Webpack's `resolve.alias` is an object (no guaranteed order). If two aliases overlap (e.g., `@admin` and `@admin/components`), the match order is undefined. Mitigation: sort aliases by pattern length descending (longest prefix first) during normalization. This matches TypeScript's behavior.

+# Host Alias Forwarding
+
+## Why
+
+The Rust extraction pipeline resolves imports independently of the host bundler. It handles relative paths and package specifiers, but not tsconfig path aliases (`@admin/*` → `./src/*`). These aliases are already resolved by the host — Vite via `vite-tsconfig-paths` or `resolve.alias`, Next.js via its built-in tsconfig support — but the extraction pipeline doesn't consume that information. Result: `.extend()` provenance chains across aliased imports silently fail, and the child component is extracted without parent styles.
+
+This is not our problem to solve — alias resolution is the host bundler's job. But consuming the host's already-resolved alias map IS our responsibility. The fix is ~30 lines of Rust pattern matching and ~10 lines per plugin adapter.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Vite plugin reads `config.resolve.alias` from `configResolved` (already merged by whatever alias plugins the user has)
+- Next plugin reads `config.resolve.alias` from the webpack config object it already receives
+- Both plugins normalize aliases into a shared `{ pattern → target }` JSON shape
+- New `path_aliases_json` parameter added to `analyzeProject()` NAPI function
+- Rust `resolve_path` closure gains a third branch: relative → **alias expand + known-file probe** → package map
+- Alias expansion does simple prefix matching, then probes the known file set with existing extension logic
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `host-alias-forwarding`: Forwarding host-resolved path aliases to the Rust extraction pipeline for cross-file binding resolution
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `import-resolver`: The binding resolver gains alias-aware resolution between relative and package-map branches
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/extract/src/project_analyzer.rs` — `resolve_path` closure gains alias branch, new `expand_alias` helper
+- `packages/extract/src/lib.rs` — `analyze_project` gains `path_aliases_json` parameter (13th)
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts` — `configResolved` extracts and normalizes `config.resolve.alias`
+- `packages/next-plugin/src/with-animus.ts` — webpack config callback extracts `config.resolve.alias`
+- No new dependencies. No breaking changes. Backwards compatible (empty alias map = current behavior).

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Host alias extraction
+Each plugin SHALL extract the host bundler's resolved path aliases and normalize them into a shared serialization format for the Rust pipeline.
+
+#### Scenario: Vite plugin extracts aliases from configResolved
+- **WHEN** the Vite plugin's `configResolved` hook fires
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL read `config.resolve.alias` and normalize each entry into `{ pattern, replacement, type }` format
+- **AND** pass the serialized alias array to `analyzeProject()` via the `path_aliases_json` parameter
+
+#### Scenario: Vite alias as array of objects
+- **WHEN** `config.resolve.alias` is `[{ find: '@admin', replacement: '/abs/path/to/src' }]`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL normalize `find` as the pattern and convert `replacement` to a project-root-relative path
+- **AND** classify as `prefix` type if the pattern does not point to a specific file, or `exact` if it does
+
+#### Scenario: Vite alias as record
+- **WHEN** `config.resolve.alias` is `{ '@admin': '/abs/path/to/src' }`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL normalize each key as a pattern and each value as a replacement
+- **AND** convert absolute replacement paths to project-root-relative paths
+
+#### Scenario: Next.js plugin extracts aliases from webpack config
+- **WHEN** the `withAnimus` webpack callback receives the webpack config
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL read `config.resolve.alias` and normalize entries into the same shared format
+- **AND** pass the serialized alias array to `analyzeProject()`
+
+#### Scenario: No aliases configured
+- **WHEN** the host bundler has no `resolve.alias` configured (or it is empty)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL pass an empty alias array
+- **AND** behavior SHALL be identical to current (no aliases resolved)
+
+### Requirement: Alias ordering normalization
+The plugin SHALL normalize alias ordering to ensure longest-prefix-first matching regardless of the host's internal ordering.
+
+#### Scenario: Overlapping alias patterns
+- **WHEN** the host provides aliases `@admin` and `@admin/components` in any order
+- **THEN** the normalized array SHALL place `@admin/components` before `@admin` (longest prefix first)
+- **AND** the Rust resolver SHALL try entries in array order, returning the first match
+
+### Requirement: NAPI boundary for alias data
+The `analyzeProject` NAPI function SHALL accept an optional `path_aliases_json` parameter containing the serialized alias array.
+
+#### Scenario: Parameter shape
+- **WHEN** `path_aliases_json` is provided
+- **THEN** it SHALL be a JSON string containing `{ "aliases": [{ "pattern": string, "replacement": string, "type": "prefix" | "exact" }] }`
+- **AND** the Rust side SHALL deserialize and use it in the `resolve_path` closure
+
+#### Scenario: Parameter absent or null
+- **WHEN** `path_aliases_json` is `None` or not provided
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL behave identically to current (no alias branch)

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Cross-file binding resolution
+The import resolver SHALL resolve a binding in one file to its original definition file by following import chains transitively. For non-relative import sources, the resolver SHALL first check path aliases (if provided), then consult the package resolution map to determine the entry file path.
+
+#### Scenario: Direct import resolution
+- **WHEN** `App.tsx` imports `Box` from `./elements/Box.tsx` and `Box.tsx` defines `export const Box = animus...`
+- **THEN** resolving binding `Box` in `App.tsx` SHALL yield `{ file: "./elements/Box.tsx", binding: "Box" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Barrel file resolution
+- **WHEN** `App.tsx` imports `Box` from `./elements` and `elements/index.ts` re-exports `Box` from `./Box.tsx`
+- **THEN** resolving binding `Box` in `App.tsx` SHALL transitively resolve to `{ file: "./elements/Box.tsx", binding: "Box" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Alias import resolution
+- **WHEN** `NavBar.tsx` imports `Button` from `@admin/components/Button` and the alias map contains `{ pattern: "@admin/", replacement: "src/", type: "prefix" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL expand `@admin/components/Button` to `src/components/Button`
+- **AND** probe the known file set for `src/components/Button.tsx` (or `.ts`, `.js`, `.jsx`, `/index.*`)
+- **AND** resolve the binding transitively from that file
+
+#### Scenario: Exact alias resolution
+- **WHEN** a file imports from `@config` and the alias map contains `{ pattern: "@config", replacement: "src/config.ts", type: "exact" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL resolve directly to `src/config.ts` without wildcard expansion
+
+#### Scenario: Alias miss falls through to package map
+- **WHEN** a non-relative import specifier does not match any alias pattern
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL fall through to the package resolution map
+- **AND** behavior for non-aliased package imports SHALL be unchanged
+
+#### Scenario: Alias expands but no file found
+- **WHEN** an alias expands to a path that does not exist in the known file set
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL return None (same as unresolvable)
+- **AND** a debug-level log SHALL indicate the alias expanded but no matching file was found
+
+#### Scenario: Package import resolution via map
+- **WHEN** `App.tsx` imports `{ Box } from '@animus-ui/components'` and the package resolution map maps `@animus-ui/components` to `packages/ui/src/index.ts` and that file re-exports `Box` from `./elements/Box.tsx`
+- **THEN** resolving binding `Box` SHALL transitively resolve through the package entry file to `{ file: "packages/ui/src/elements/Box.tsx", binding: "Box" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Package import with rename
+- **WHEN** `App.tsx` imports `{ Anchor as Link } from '@animus-ui/components'` and the package entry file exports `Anchor`
+- **THEN** resolving binding `Link` in `App.tsx` SHALL resolve to Anchor's definition, preserving the rename chain
+
+#### Scenario: Unresolvable package
+- **WHEN** a binding is imported from a package NOT in the resolution map (e.g., `next/link`)
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL return None — the binding is external

+# Tasks: host-alias-forwarding
+
+## 1. Rust: Extract extension probing into shared helper
+
+- [x] 1.1 Extract the extension-probing loop (`.ts`, `.tsx`, `.js`, `.jsx`, `/index.*`) from `resolve_relative_path` into a new `probe_known_files(candidate: &str, known_files: &FxHashSet<String>) -> Option<String>` function
+- [x] 1.2 Refactor `resolve_relative_path` to compute the joined/normalized candidate path, then delegate to `probe_known_files`

+## Context
+
+Pre-release cleanup driven by a 5-persona API surface audit. Three categories: correctness bug (memoization), dead code removal (serialize), and API clarity exploration (includes). Plus housekeeping for stale changes.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Fix the per-component-type memoization bug so dynamic system props work correctly with multiple instances
+- Remove dead code that confuses source readers
+- Document the `includes()` design question for future resolution
+- Clean up stale openspec changes
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Implementing `includes()` multi-system composition (separate change)
+- Adding `keyframes` first-class API (separate design exploration)
+- Changing the `anm-system > anm-states` layer ordering (documented, intentional)
+- Removing SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES from the TS properties package (harmless, useful as reference)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Remove dynamic style memoization entirely
+
+**Choice:** Remove closure-scoped `prevDynKey` / `prevDynStyle` variables from `createComponent`. Use `dynamicStyle` from `resolveClasses()` directly each render.
+
+**Why removal over per-instance memoization:**
+- `useRef` would break RSC compatibility — `forwardRef` works in server components but hooks do not. The original code comment explicitly noted "avoids useRef so createComponent stays hook-free and RSC-compatible."
+- The memoization saved one object allocation per stable re-render — negligible cost for a small `Record<string, string>` with CSS variable assignments
+- The closure-scoped cache caused cross-instance state leakage (last-rendered instance's cache could affect other instances via the asChild branch)
+- No hooks = no client boundary requirement = RSC-compatible by default
+
+### Decision 2: Remove GlobalStyleBlock.serialize()
+
+**Choice:** Delete the `serialize()` method from the `GlobalStyleBlock` type and the `createGlobalStyles` factory. The `GlobalStyleMap` type and `GlobalStyleBlock.__brand` remain (they're used by the Rust system loader for brand checking).
+
+**Why safe to remove:** Zero callers in the entire codebase. Actual serialization happens in Rust (`system_loader.rs` line ~1012 checks `__brand === "GlobalStyleBlock"`, extracts `.styles`). The TS method is dead code from before the Rust pipeline.
+
+### Decision 3: Document includes() as exploration point
+
+**Choice:** Add a JSDoc comment to `includes()` noting it's a no-op stub reserved for future multi-system composition. Do not remove or implement — the method is called in showcase and next-app fixtures, and removing it would break those files without providing value. The design question (constructor args vs method vs full implementation) is deferred to a separate change.
+
+### Decision 4: Archive stale changes
+
+**Choice:** Archive `rc-consumer-surface` and `vite-integration-patterns` as stale without applying or syncing (0 tasks completed in either, no delta specs).
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] useRef in the render path** — React strict mode double-invokes render functions. The ref persists across both invocations, which is correct for memoization (the cache should survive strict mode re-renders). No risk.
+
+**[Risk] Removing serialize() breaks external consumers** — `serialize()` is on an internal branded type (`GlobalStyleBlock`) that's not part of the documented API. The type is used via `createGlobalStyles()` which returns the block; consumers pass blocks to system config, not call methods on them. Zero external call sites possible.

+## Why
+
+A 5-persona API surface audit (Tailwind migrator, Stitches refugee, DS engineer, CSS purist, indie dev) identified correctness and hygiene issues in `@animus-ui/system` that should be resolved before the 0.1.0 stable release. These are not feature gaps — they're either bugs, dead code, or API surface points that confuse every type of user who encounters them.
+
+### Memoization bug in createComponent (correctness)
+
+`packages/system/src/runtime/index.ts` lines 74-78: `prevDynKey` and `prevDynStyle` are closure-scoped per component TYPE, not per instance. Two instances of the same component with different dynamic system prop values (`<Button mt={4} />` next to `<Button mt={8} />`) share mutable memoization state. The last-rendered instance's cache wins, causing stale style objects on re-renders. Flagged independently by 3 of 5 audit personas.
+
+Fix: replace closure variables with `useRef` per instance. This doesn't change the RSC surface — the component already uses `forwardRef` (client-only). The `.asClass()` path (RSC-safe) doesn't go through createComponent.
+
+### Dead `serialize()` on GlobalStyleBlock (dead code)
+
+`GlobalStyleBlock.serialize()` in SystemBuilder.ts returns its input unchanged — literally `return styles`. The actual global style serialization happens in Rust (`system_loader.rs` extracts `.styles`, `resolve-global-styles.ts` resolves tokens). The TS method is vestigial from before the Rust pipeline took over. It has zero callers.
+
+### `includes()` no-op (API clarity — exploration point)
+
+`SystemBuilder.includes()` accepts an array of systems and ignores them. The parameter is `_systems` (prefixed underscore). It's called in showcase/ds.ts and next-app/ds.ts with `testDs` but has no effect. The method exists for future multi-system composition but currently misleads users into thinking it merges prop registries.
+
+This is a design exploration point, not a direct fix. Options: move to constructor args for clarity, implement the type-level merge, or remove until the feature is ready. The proposal documents the current state; the design will capture the decision.
+
+### Stale active changes (hygiene)
+
+`rc-consumer-surface` (0/22, last modified 2026-04-03) and `vite-integration-patterns` (0/12, last modified 2026-04-12) are untouched and predate the 5-change reorganization sequence. Archive as stale.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Fix memoization in `createComponent` to be per-instance via `useRef`
+- Remove dead `serialize()` method from `GlobalStyleBlock`
+- Document `includes()` current state and capture design decision for its future

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic style memoization is per-instance
+
+The `createComponent` runtime SHALL memoize dynamic style objects per component INSTANCE, not per component TYPE. Multiple instances of the same component rendered with different dynamic system prop values SHALL each receive their own correct style object.
+
+#### Scenario: Two instances with different dynamic props
+- **WHEN** `<Button mt={4} />` and `<Button mt={8} />` render in the same tree
+- **THEN** the first instance SHALL have `style` containing the CSS variable for `mt=4`
+- **AND** the second instance SHALL have `style` containing the CSS variable for `mt=8`
+- **AND** re-rendering either instance SHALL NOT affect the other's style
+
+#### Scenario: Single instance memoization still works
+- **WHEN** a single `<Button mt={4} />` re-renders with the same props
+- **THEN** the style object SHALL be referentially identical across renders (memoized)
+
+#### Scenario: RSC path unaffected
+- **WHEN** `.asClass()` is used to generate class names (RSC-safe path)
+- **THEN** no memoization state SHALL be involved
+- **AND** the class resolver SHALL remain RSC-compatible

+# Tasks: pre-release-api-cleanup
+
+## 1. Fix memoization bug in createComponent
+
+- [x] In `packages/system/src/runtime/index.ts`, remove closure-scoped `prevDynKey` and `prevDynStyle` memoization entirely — use `dynamicStyle` from `resolveClasses` directly (RSC-compatible: no hooks, no closure state leaks)
+- [x] Update asChild branch to use `dynamicStyle` directly instead of `prevDynStyle`
+- [x] Update normal branch to use `dynamicStyle` directly instead of `prevDynStyle`
+- [x] Verify: `bun run verify:compile` passes (useRef import added)
+- [x] Verify: `bun run verify:unit:ts` passes (existing runtime tests still green)
+
+## 2. Remove dead serialize() from GlobalStyleBlock
+
+- [x] In `packages/system/src/SystemBuilder.ts`, remove the `serialize()` method from the object returned by `createGlobalStyles()`
+- [x] Remove the `serialize` property from the `GlobalStyleBlock` type definition (if it's in a type/interface)
+- [x] Verify: `bun run verify:compile` passes (no callers to break)
+
+## 3. Document includes() as exploration point
+
+- [x] Add JSDoc comment to `includes()` in `packages/system/src/SystemBuilder.ts` explaining: stub reserved for future multi-system composition, currently a no-op, parameter is accepted for API forward-compatibility but not processed
+- [x] Verify: `bun run verify:compile` passes
+
+## 4. Archive stale changes
+
+- [x] Archive `rc-consumer-surface`: `mv openspec/changes/rc-consumer-surface openspec/changes/archive/2026-04-16-rc-consumer-surface`
+- [x] Archive `vite-integration-patterns`: `mv openspec/changes/vite-integration-patterns openspec/changes/archive/2026-04-16-vite-integration-patterns`
+
+## 5. Verification
+
+- [x] `bun run verify` (fast gate: lint + compile + types + unit:ts + unit:rust + canary)
+- [x] `bun run verify:integration` (pipeline integration tests)
+- [x] `bun run verify:showcase` (showcase build + assertions)

+## Context
+
+Five packages are published to npm: `system`, `extract`, `vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`, `properties`. None have READMEs. The root README references Emotion features, uses the old `animus.styles()` API, and calls `.groups()` (renamed to `.system()`). The showcase docs site has the same `.groups()` staleness in its markdown content (TSX files are already correct).
+
+Draft READMEs already exist in the working tree from initial exploration. They need a review pass for: happy-path accuracy, keyword selection, and scope appropriateness (consumer-facing vs internal).
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Every publishable package has a README visible on npm and GitHub
+- Root README tells the current story (zero-runtime extraction, not Emotion)
+- Code examples use current API (`ds.styles()`, `.system()`, pre-built groups from `@animus-ui/system/groups`)
+- Showcase markdown content matches current API naming
+- Package.json metadata enables npm discovery
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Full documentation site (that's a separate effort)
+- Comprehensive API reference in READMEs (keep them as entry points, not exhaustive docs)
+- Next test app enrichment (deferred — separate change, different scope)
+- Showcase visual/component changes (only fixing stale API names in content)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### 1. README scope per package type
+
+**Consumer-facing packages** (system, vite-plugin, next-plugin): Install → setup → working example → link to further docs. The system README is the longest because it's the primary consumer entry point — show theme setup, group composition, and a complete component.
+
+**Internal packages** (extract, properties): One paragraph explaining what it does and that consumers don't install it directly. No usage examples — the API is consumed by the plugins, not by end users.
+
+**Why not equal depth for all?** A consumer who lands on `@animus-ui/extract` on npm and sees a Rust NAPI function signature will bounce. "This is used internally by the plugins" is the correct message. The consumer never touches extract directly.
+
+### 2. Happy-path example: pre-built groups composed into semantic groups
+
+The README examples must show the ACTUAL recommended pattern from the showcase:
+
+```tsx
+import { space, color, typography, border, shadows, background } from '@animus-ui/system/groups';
+
+export const { system: ds } = createSystem()
+  .addGroup('surface', { ...color, ...border, ...shadows, ...background })
+  .addGroup('space', space)
+  .build();
+```
+
+Not the raw property definition syntax (`{ property: 'padding', scale: 'space' }`). That syntax exists and works, but composing pre-built groups is the happy path.
+
+**Why this matters:** The raw syntax is what you'd use to ADD a custom prop to a group, not to define the group from scratch. Showing it first makes the framework look low-level. Showing group composition first makes it look batteries-included.
+
+### 3. Keywords: search intent, not architecture
+
+Keywords should reflect what npm users search for: `css-in-js`, `react`, `design-system`, `zero-runtime`, `static-css`, `typescript`. NOT internal terms like `css-layers`, `napi`, `static-analysis`.
+
+Exception: `extract` keeps `rust` and `napi` because developers who find that package are looking for the native addon specifically.
+
+### 4. Showcase docs: targeted text replacement only
+
+The markdown content files use `.groups()` in prose and code examples. Fix these to `.system()`. Don't restructure pages, rewrite narratives, or change component examples — that's a separate content refresh.
+
+Files to audit:
+- `getting-started.md` — builder chain description, code examples
+- `api/builder-chain.md` — method table, code examples
+- `api/create-system.md` — `.addGroup()` references (these are correct — it's `createSystem().addGroup()`, the rename was on the component builder side: `.groups()` → `.system()`)
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk] Examples diverge from showcase**: README examples are simplified versions of the showcase patterns. If the showcase changes, READMEs could become stale. → **Mitigation**: READMEs link to showcase as the canonical reference. Keep examples minimal — less surface area to rot.
+- **[Risk] Token refs in examples may confuse newcomers**: `'{colors.primary}'` syntax is unfamiliar. → **Mitigation**: Show it in context with a comment explaining it resolves to `var(--color-primary)`. Don't over-explain — the docs site handles the full mental model.
+- **[Trade-off] No next-plugin setup verification**: The next-plugin README shows a `withAnimus()` config wrapper, but we're not running the next test app to verify the exact API matches. → **Accept**: The config wrapper API is stable and tested in CI.

+## Why
+
+The five publishable packages have no READMEs, no npm keywords, and incomplete package.json metadata. The root README references Emotion, the old `animus.styles()` API, and the renamed `.groups()` method. The showcase docs site still uses `.groups()` in markdown content. A consumer arriving via npm or GitHub sees nothing useful — or worse, actively misleading information.
+
+This is blocking RC readiness. The pipeline is provably complete (395 tests, 150 canary, 188 Rust, showcase builds clean) but the consumer surface doesn't reflect the current state of the project.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Root README.md**: Complete rewrite. Remove Emotion positioning, fix API examples to use `ds.styles()` and `.system()`, show the actual happy path (pre-built groups composed into semantic groups, token refs, builder chain).
+- **Package READMEs (×5)**: Create for `system`, `extract`, `vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`, `properties`. Each scoped to what a consumer of THAT package needs — install, setup, basic usage. Consumer-facing packages (system, vite-plugin, next-plugin) get real examples. Internal packages (extract, properties) get brief "this is a transitive dep" explanations.
+- **package.json metadata**: Add `homepage` (deep-linked to package directory), `repository.directory`, and `keywords` to all 5 publishable packages. Keywords should reflect what people search for on npm, not internal architecture terms.
+- **Showcase docs audit**: Fix stale `.groups()` references to `.system()` in markdown content files (`getting-started.md`, `builder-chain.md`, `create-system.md`). TSX component files already use `.system()` correctly.
+- **thinking-in-animus skill**: Minor refresh — verify API references match current codebase, fix any stale method names.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `package-readmes`: Requirements for what each publishable package's README must contain — install instructions, quick start, code examples using current API, and appropriate scope (consumer-facing vs internal).
+- `npm-package-metadata`: Requirements for package.json discoverability fields across all publishable packages — homepage, repository.directory, keywords, description accuracy.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `developer-knowledge-docs`: Add requirement that consumer-facing README content must not conflict with internal CLAUDE.md content (same APIs, same terminology, same package names).
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Files**: `README.md` (root), `packages/{system,extract,vite-plugin,next-plugin,properties}/README.md`, `packages/*/package.json` (×5), `packages/showcase/src/content/*.md` (3-4 files), `.claude/skills/thinking-in-animus/*.md`
+- **No code changes**: All changes are documentation and metadata. No runtime, type, or build changes.
+- **npm**: Keywords and homepage will appear on next publish. README content will display on npm package pages.

+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL include a build system section (appended after existing content) documenting monorepo build order, verification commands, cache tiers, and common debugging scenarios. Consumer-facing README content SHALL NOT conflict with internal CLAUDE.md content — the same APIs, terminology, and package names MUST be used in both.

+
+### Requirement: All publishable packages have homepage field
+Every publishable package (`system`, `extract`, `vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`, `properties`) SHALL have a `homepage` field in package.json deep-linked to the package's directory in the GitHub repository.
+
+#### Scenario: Homepage links to package directory
+- **WHEN** a consumer views any publishable package on npm
+- **THEN** the homepage link SHALL point to `https://github.com/codecaaron/animus/tree/main/packages/<name>#readme`
+
+### Requirement: All publishable packages have repository.directory
+Every publishable package SHALL have `repository.directory` set to `packages/<name>` so npm can link to the correct subdirectory in the monorepo.
+
+#### Scenario: Repository directory is set
+- **WHEN** a consumer clicks "Repository" on an npm package page
+- **THEN** it SHALL navigate to the package's subdirectory, not the monorepo root
+
+### Requirement: All publishable packages have keywords
+Every publishable package SHALL have a `keywords` array reflecting npm search intent.
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer-facing packages use discovery keywords
+- **WHEN** `system`, `vite-plugin`, or `next-plugin` is published
+- **THEN** keywords SHALL include terms that npm users search for (e.g., `css-in-js`, `react`, `design-system`, `zero-runtime`, `static-css`, `typescript`, `vite-plugin`, `nextjs`)
+- **AND** keywords SHALL NOT include internal architecture terms that consumers don't search for (e.g., `css-layers`, `static-analysis`, `type-state`)
+
+#### Scenario: Internal packages use technical keywords
+- **WHEN** `extract` is published
+- **THEN** keywords MAY include technical terms like `rust`, `napi` since developers finding this package are looking for the native addon specifically
+
+### Requirement: Package descriptions are accurate
+Every publishable package SHALL have a `description` field that accurately describes its current functionality without referencing deprecated features or packages.
+
+#### Scenario: No stale descriptions
+- **WHEN** any publishable package's description is read
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT reference Emotion, styled-components, `@animus-ui/core`, or `@animus-ui/theming`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Consumer-facing packages have quick-start READMEs
+The packages `system`, `vite-plugin`, and `next-plugin` SHALL each have a README.md containing: install command, minimal setup, and a working code example using current API.
+
+#### Scenario: system README shows group composition pattern
+- **WHEN** a consumer reads `packages/system/README.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL show importing pre-built groups from `@animus-ui/system/groups` and composing them via `createSystem().addGroup()` — not raw property definitions
+
+#### Scenario: system README shows a complete component
+- **WHEN** a consumer reads `packages/system/README.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL include a component example using `ds.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()`, `.system()`, and `.asElement()` with JSX usage showing typed props
+
+#### Scenario: vite-plugin README shows config setup
+- **WHEN** a consumer reads `packages/vite-plugin/README.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL show a complete `vite.config.ts` with `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })` and note that React resolve aliases must not be added
+
+#### Scenario: next-plugin README shows config setup
+- **WHEN** a consumer reads `packages/next-plugin/README.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL show a `next.config.mjs` with `withAnimus(nextConfig, { system: './src/ds.ts' })` and note RSC compatibility
+
+### Requirement: Internal packages have minimal READMEs
+The packages `extract` and `properties` SHALL each have a README.md explaining what the package does and that consumers do not install it directly.
+
+#### Scenario: extract README identifies as internal
+- **WHEN** a consumer reads `packages/extract/README.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL state that this package is consumed by `vite-plugin` and `next-plugin` and list supported platforms (darwin-arm64, linux-x64-gnu, linux-arm64-gnu)
+
+#### Scenario: properties README identifies as transitive
+- **WHEN** a consumer reads `packages/properties/README.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL state that this is a transitive dependency of `@animus-ui/system` and describe what data it provides (unitless set, shorthand mappings)
+
+### Requirement: Root README reflects current architecture
+The root `README.md` SHALL describe the zero-runtime static extraction architecture, use `ds.styles()` API (not `animus.styles()`), use `.system()` method (not `.groups()`), and not reference Emotion as a current feature.
+
+#### Scenario: Root README shows extraction-based setup
+- **WHEN** a consumer reads the root `README.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL show a two-file setup pattern (`theme.ts` + `ds.ts`) with pre-built group composition, bundler plugin config, and a component example
+
+#### Scenario: Root README mentions legacy packages
+- **WHEN** a consumer reads the root `README.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL mention `core` and `theming` as legacy Emotion-based packages that are pinned and no longer published
+
+#### Scenario: Root README does not position Emotion as current
+- **WHEN** a consumer reads the root `README.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT contain phrases like "All Emotion features remain available" or reference `@emotion/*` as part of the current API
+
+### Requirement: All READMEs use current method names
+Every README SHALL use `.system()` for the component builder method that opts into prop groups. The old name `.groups()` SHALL NOT appear in any README.
+
+#### Scenario: No stale method names
+- **WHEN** any README is grep'd for `.groups(`
+- **THEN** zero matches SHALL be found
+
+### Requirement: Code examples use token ref syntax
+README code examples that reference theme values SHALL use the token ref syntax `'{scale.key}'` with a brief inline explanation that it resolves to a CSS variable at build time.
+
+#### Scenario: Token ref shown in context
+- **WHEN** a component example uses a theme value (e.g., spacing, color)
+- **THEN** it SHALL use `'{colors.primary}'` or `'{space.md}'` syntax, not raw CSS values or CSS variable syntax

+## Context
+
+The Vite plugin spawns 3 sequential bun subprocesses during `buildStart`, each importing the same system module and calling `.toConfig()`. The subprocess model was originally necessary because the system module is ESM TypeScript that can't be `require()`'d directly in Node. This design eliminates 2 of the 3 subprocesses by:
+
+1. Enforcing that `createTransform` callbacks are self-contained (no external references)
+2. Having Rust extract the callback source spans from the AST
+3. Moving global styles resolution into Rust's `analyzeProject` (theme_resolver already handles the hard parts)
+4. Generating a tiny zero-dep CJS bin file from extracted transform sources to resolve `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders
+
+Current subprocess responsibilities:
+- **Subprocess 1** (system load): Import system module, call `.toConfig()` + `.serialize()`, discover global style blocks, discover transform names → JSON output
+- **Subprocess 2** (global styles): Import system module AGAIN, call `.toConfig()` AGAIN, resolve global style blocks with live transforms → resolved CSS
+- **Subprocess 3** (transforms): Import system module AGAIN, call `.toConfig()` AGAIN, regex-replace `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders → resolved CSS
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Eliminate subprocess 2 (global styles) by moving resolution to Rust
+- Eliminate subprocess 3 (transforms) by extracting transform source spans in Rust and resolving via a generated bin file
+- Reduce `buildStart` overhead by ~200ms+ (2 fewer process spawns)
+- Remove bun requirement for transform and global styles resolution
+- Enforce self-contained transform constraint at extraction time with clear diagnostics
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Eliminating subprocess 1 — system module evaluation requires a JS runtime (it's live TypeScript)
+- Implementing transforms natively in Rust — the bin file approach preserves user-defined JS transforms
+- Changing transform semantics or output — identical CSS output before and after
+- Supporting transforms with external references — this is explicitly out of scope and enforced
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Self-contained constraint over dependency tracing
+
+**Choice:** Enforce that `createTransform` callbacks have no external references, rather than building a dependency tracer in Rust.
+
+**Why:** Dependency tracing (finding imports used by the callback, their transitive deps, inlining them) is essentially building a mini-bundler in Rust. The transforms in practice are simple pure functions — `size` is 10 lines, `borderShorthand` is 1 line. Inlining the 2-3 helper functions they currently use is 30 minutes of work. The constraint eliminates an entire class of complexity.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Bundling transform files with esbuild before Rust analysis. This works but adds esbuild as a runtime dependency in the build path and doesn't leverage Rust's existing AST capabilities.
+
+### Decision 2: Bin file post-processor over in-process eval
+
+**Choice:** Write extracted transform sources to a CJS file and run it via `execSync`, rather than using `new Function()` or `eval()` in the plugin.
+
+**Why:** `new Function()` is blocked by CSP policies in some environments. `eval()` has the same issue plus security concerns. A CJS file with zero dependencies runs anywhere — node, bun, deno. The exec cost is ~15-30ms (vs ~100ms+ for a subprocess that needs to import the system module and resolve TS).
+
+**Alternative considered:** Direct `await import()` of the system module under bun. Works when bun is the Vite runtime, but fails under Node without a TS loader. The bin file is runtime-agnostic.
+
+### Decision 3: Global styles into Rust's analyzeProject
+
+**Choice:** Pass raw global style block objects into `analyzeProject` as a new parameter. Rust resolves them using the same theme_resolver pipeline as component styles. Transform values emit `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders resolved by the bin file.
+
+**Why:** theme_resolver already handles prop shorthand expansion, scale lookup, and token alias resolution. The only missing piece was live transform execution — which the bin file now covers via placeholders. This means global styles and component styles use the same resolution path. Single source of truth.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Consolidating all 3 subprocesses into 1 (resolving global styles in the existing subprocess). This saves 2 process spawns but keeps JS responsible for resolution logic that Rust already implements. It's a half-measure.
+
+### Decision 4: Transform extraction via AST in project_analyzer, not chain_walker
+
+**Choice:** Scan for `createTransform` calls during the project_analyzer's parse phase, not in chain_walker.
+
+**Why:** chain_walker is scoped to finding builder chain terminals (`.asElement`, `.asComponent`, `.asClass`). Transform extraction is a separate concern — it needs to find `createTransform` calls which may appear in different files than the builder chains (e.g., `transforms/size.ts` has no builder chains). Adding it to project_analyzer's parse phase means it runs on ALL files during the existing AST walk, with results collected into the manifest.
+
+### Decision 5: External reference validation via free variable analysis
+
+**Choice:** After extracting the callback AST, walk it to find all `Identifier` references. Compare against: parameter names, locally declared variables, and a well-known globals allowlist (`String`, `Number`, `Math`, `parseInt`, `parseFloat`, `isNaN`, `RegExp`, `JSON`, `Array`, `Object`, `undefined`, `NaN`, `Infinity`, `console`). Any unresolved identifier → diagnostic.
+
+**Why:** This is sound and complete for the constraint we're enforcing. If an identifier isn't a parameter, a local, or a well-known global, it must be an external reference. The AST gives us exact span information for the diagnostic message.
+
+### Decision 6: Subprocess 1 output changes
+
+**Choice:** The system load subprocess continues to discover global style blocks from module exports, but ships them as raw JSON objects (`{ selectorMap: { selector: { prop: value } } }`) instead of resolved CSS. It also stops extracting transform function names (Rust discovers them from source).
+
+**Why:** The subprocess's job is to evaluate the live TypeScript module — things that require a JS runtime. Prop resolution, scale lookup, and transform extraction are static analysis tasks that Rust handles better. Subprocess 1 should do the minimum irreducible JS work.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Built-in transform helper inlining creates code duplication** → `percentageOrAbsolute` (~5 lines) appears in `size`'s callback body instead of being imported. This is 5 lines duplicated in one place. Acceptable for the constraint it enables. The helper functions (`percentageOrAbsolute`, `numberToTemplate`) can remain exported for non-extraction use — they just can't be referenced from within a `createTransform` callback.
+
+**[Risk] Users with existing external-reference transforms get a build error** → The extraction diagnostic is actionable: it names the external symbol and explains the constraint. Users inline the reference. This is a one-time migration. The `strict: false` default means it warns rather than fails — the transform falls through to unresolved `__TRANSFORM__` placeholder (which the bin file won't have a function for, so the raw value passes through).
+
+**[Risk] Bin file exec adds a process spawn** → True, but it's ~15-30ms (zero-dep CJS, no module resolution, no TS compilation) vs the ~100-120ms it replaces (full system module import + TS eval). Net savings: ~70-90ms per subprocess eliminated, times 2 = ~140-180ms.
+
+**[Risk] Global styles in Rust creates a new code path** → theme_resolver already resolves styles identically for components. Global styles are structurally the same: `{ selector: { prop: value } }`. The new code is primarily wiring (accepting the parameter, iterating blocks, calling existing resolution functions, wrapping in `@layer anm-global`). The resolution logic itself is unchanged.
+
+**[Risk] `__TRANSFORM__` in global styles changes behavior** → Currently global styles resolve transforms directly (live JS). After this change, they go through the same placeholder → bin file path as component styles. The output is identical, but the resolution timing shifts from subprocess 2 to post-analysis. If a transform function has side effects (it shouldn't — they're pure), this could differ. Mitigation: transforms are documented as pure functions; the self-contained constraint reinforces this.

+## Why
+
+The Vite plugin's `buildStart` spawns 3 sequential bun subprocesses that each import the same system module and call `.toConfig()` — system serialization, global styles resolution, and transform placeholder resolution. This costs ~300-360ms in pure process spawn overhead on every build start and every HMR geological reset. Two of the three subprocesses are eliminable by enforcing that `createTransform` callbacks are self-contained (no external references), allowing Rust to extract their source spans from the AST and resolve them without live JS execution of the system module.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **`createTransform` self-contained constraint**: Transform callbacks passed to `createTransform('name', fn)` must have no external references — no imports, no closure captures, no helper function calls. The callback is the complete program. This is an **API contract** enforced at extraction time via AST validation.
+- **Inline built-in transform helpers**: The 4 built-in transforms (`size`, `borderShorthand`, `gridItem`, `gridItemRatio`) currently import from `./utils`. Inline those 2-3 line helpers into each callback body so they satisfy the self-contained constraint. **BREAKING** for anyone importing `percentageOrAbsolute` or `numberToTemplate` from `@animus-ui/system` (internal, not public API).
+- **Rust transform source extraction**: New AST scan pass in the Rust crate. Finds `createTransform` call expressions, extracts the callback source span verbatim, validates no external references, emits (name, source) pairs as part of the manifest.
+- **Transform bin file post-processor**: Plugin writes extracted transform sources into a ~15-line zero-dep CJS file. One `execSync('node runner.js input.css output.css')` resolves all `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders. Runs on node or bun — no TS, no imports.
+- **Global styles resolution in Rust**: Move global style block resolution from the JS subprocess into Rust's `analyzeProject`. The theme_resolver already handles prop shorthand expansion, scale lookup, and token alias resolution. Transform values emit `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders resolved by the same bin file.
+- **Subprocess 1 ships raw data**: The remaining system load subprocess discovers global style blocks but ships them as raw JSON objects instead of resolved CSS. Resolution moves to Rust.
+- **Remove subprocesses 2 and 3**: Global styles subprocess and transform resolution subprocess are eliminated entirely.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `self-contained-transforms`: API contract enforcement for createTransform callbacks — no external references, AST validation at extraction time, diagnostic emission for violations
+- `transform-bin-resolver`: Zero-dependency CJS post-processor that resolves __TRANSFORM__ placeholders in CSS using extracted transform source spans. Generated per-build from manifest data.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `named-transforms`: Adding self-contained constraint to the callback API contract
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: Removing 2 subprocesses, adding bin file post-processing step, buildStart becomes async
+- `global-styles-system`: Resolution moves from JS subprocess to Rust theme_resolver path within analyzeProject
+- `system-serialization`: Subprocess 1 output changes — ships raw global style block objects instead of resolved CSS
+- `next-webpack-integration`: Same subprocess elimination and bin file changes as Vite plugin
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Packages modified**: `system` (transforms), `extract` (Rust crate + pipeline), `vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`
+- **Performance**: ~200ms+ reduction per buildStart and HMR geological reset (2 fewer subprocess spawns)
+- **Runtime compatibility**: Bin file is pure CJS — removes bun requirement for transform/global-styles resolution. System load subprocess still needs bun or node with TS support.
+- **API surface**: `createTransform` gains an enforced constraint. Existing user transforms that are already self-contained (the common case) are unaffected. Transforms with external references get a build-time diagnostic with actionable message.
+- **Test surface**: Rust canary tests for transform extraction. Integration tests for bin file resolution. Existing transform behavior tests remain (output unchanged).

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Global style resolution
+Global style blocks SHALL be resolved using the same prop config, theme scales, and token alias logic as component styles. For transform values, the resolver SHALL emit `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders (matching the component style behavior) instead of applying transforms directly. All `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders — from both global styles and component styles — SHALL be resolved in a single post-processing pass by the transform bin resolver.
+
+#### Scenario: Global style prop shorthand resolved in Rust
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains `{ body: { m: 0 } }`
+- **THEN** Rust resolves `m` to `margin` via prop config and emits `margin: 0`
+
+#### Scenario: Global style scale lookup resolved in Rust
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains `{ body: { color: '{colors.primary}' } }`
+- **THEN** Rust resolves the token alias to `color: var(--color-primary)`
+
+#### Scenario: Global style transform emits placeholder
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains `{ body: { p: 4 } }` and `p` has transform `size`
+- **THEN** Rust emits `padding: __TRANSFORM__size__4__` which the bin file resolves to `padding: 1rem`
+
+#### Scenario: Global style @keyframes resolved in Rust
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains `{ '@keyframes pulse': { '0%, 100%': { transform: 'scale(1)' }, '50%': { transform: 'scale(1.02)' } } }`
+- **THEN** Rust emits the keyframes block with CSS property values resolved
+
+### Requirement: Global CSS emission in @layer anm-global
+Global style blocks SHALL be emitted within `@layer anm-global { }`. The layer declaration SHALL use the `anm-` prefixed layer names. Block order SHALL match export order from the system module.
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple global style blocks in layer
+- **WHEN** the system module exports `globalStyles` and `globalReset` as GlobalStyleBlocks
+- **THEN** both are emitted within `@layer anm-global { }` in export order
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Global styles resolution via standalone subprocess
+**Reason**: Global styles are now resolved in Rust during `analyzeProject`, using the same theme_resolver pipeline as component styles. Transform values emit `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders resolved by the bin file post-processor.
+**Migration**: No user action required. The `resolve-global-styles.ts` script is no longer invoked. The Vite plugin passes raw global style block JSON to `analyzeProject` instead of resolving them in a subprocess.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Built-in transforms use createTransform
+Built-in transforms (`size`, `borderShorthand`, `gridItemRatio`, `gridItem`) SHALL be wrapped with `createTransform`. Their callbacks SHALL be self-contained — all helper logic (e.g., `percentageOrAbsolute`, `numberToTemplate`, `isUnitlessNumber`, `gridItemMap`) MUST be inlined into the callback body. The helper functions MAY remain as separate exports for non-extraction use, but SHALL NOT be referenced from within any `createTransform` callback.
+
+#### Scenario: size transform wraps with createTransform and is self-contained
+- **WHEN** `size` is imported from `@animus-ui/system`
+- **THEN** it has `.transformName === 'size'` AND its callback body contains no external references
+
+#### Scenario: borderShorthand inlines numberToTemplate logic
+- **WHEN** `borderShorthand` callback is extracted by Rust
+- **THEN** the extracted source contains the number-to-template logic inline, not a reference to `numberToTemplate`
+
+#### Scenario: gridItem inlines map and utility
+- **WHEN** `gridItem` callback is extracted by Rust
+- **THEN** the extracted source contains the `gridItemMap` object and `isUnitlessNumber` regex inline
+
+### Requirement: Custom transforms follow the same protocol
+Users SHALL use `createTransform` for named transforms that participate in extraction. Custom transforms are serialized identically to built-ins. Custom transform callbacks MUST satisfy the self-contained constraint — no external references.
+
+#### Scenario: User-defined self-contained transform extracts correctly
+- **WHEN** user defines `createTransform('fluid', (value) => { const [min, max] = String(value).split('-').map(Number); ... })`
+- **THEN** extraction succeeds and the callback is included in the manifest
+
+#### Scenario: User-defined transform with external reference gets diagnostic
+- **WHEN** user defines `createTransform('slugify', (value) => lodash.kebabCase(value))`
+- **THEN** extraction emits `[bail] Transform 'slugify': callback references external symbol 'lodash'`

+## NOTE
+
+> **The bin file approach described here was superseded by embedded-transform-eval (session 62) and rust-system-loader (session 67).** Both plugins use NAPI `loadSystemModule()` for system loading and boa_engine in-process transform resolution — no subprocesses or bin files. The main `next-webpack-integration` spec reflects the final state.
+
+## MODIFIED Requirements (as originally proposed — fully superseded)
+
+### Requirement: Webpack plugin orchestrates extraction pipeline
+The webpack plugin SHALL run the full pipeline: `loadSystem → analyzeProject → resolveTransformPlaceholders → applyUnitFallback` once per build. Transform resolution SHALL use the bin file post-processor (same as the Vite plugin) instead of the previous subprocess approach. Global styles SHALL be passed as raw JSON to `analyzeProject` for Rust resolution, not resolved in a JS subprocess.
+
+#### Scenario: Next.js build uses bin file for transforms
+- **WHEN** a Next.js production build runs the webpack plugin
+- **THEN** transform placeholders are resolved via the zero-dep bin file, not a subprocess importing the system module
+
+#### Scenario: Next.js dev watch uses bin file for transforms
+- **WHEN** a Next.js dev server re-analyzes after file changes
+- **THEN** the bin file is regenerated from fresh manifest data and executed for transform resolution
+
+#### Scenario: Global styles resolved by Rust in Next.js
+- **WHEN** the system module exports global style blocks
+- **THEN** the webpack plugin passes raw global style block JSON to `analyzeProject` and receives resolved global CSS (with `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders resolved by the bin file)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: createTransform callbacks must be self-contained
+The callback function passed as the second argument to `createTransform(name, fn)` SHALL have no external references. The callback MUST be a pure function of its arguments and locally declared variables. It SHALL NOT import, reference, or close over any identifiers that are not: (a) its own parameters, (b) variables declared within the callback body, or (c) well-known JavaScript globals.
+
+The well-known globals allowlist SHALL include: `String`, `Number`, `Math`, `parseInt`, `parseFloat`, `isNaN`, `RegExp`, `JSON`, `Array`, `Object`, `undefined`, `NaN`, `Infinity`, `console`, `Error`, `TypeError`.
+
+#### Scenario: Self-contained callback passes validation
+- **WHEN** a createTransform callback uses only its parameters, local variables, and well-known globals
+- **THEN** extraction succeeds and the callback source is included in the manifest
+
+#### Scenario: Callback referencing an imported helper fails validation
+- **WHEN** a createTransform callback references `percentageOrAbsolute` imported from another module
+- **THEN** extraction emits a diagnostic: `[bail] Transform 'size': callback references external symbol 'percentageOrAbsolute'. Transform callbacks must be self-contained (no imports or external references).`
+
+#### Scenario: Callback referencing a closure variable fails validation
+- **WHEN** a createTransform callback references a variable declared outside the callback but within the same file (e.g., a `const gridItemMap = {...}` above the callback)
+- **THEN** extraction emits a diagnostic naming the external symbol
+
+#### Scenario: Callback using Math global passes validation
+- **WHEN** a createTransform callback uses `Math.round(value * 100)`
+- **THEN** validation passes — `Math` is in the well-known globals allowlist
+
+### Requirement: Rust extracts createTransform callback source spans
+The Rust crate SHALL scan parsed AST for `CallExpression` nodes where the callee resolves to `createTransform`. For each match, it SHALL extract the first argument as the transform name (StringLiteral) and the second argument as the callback source. The extracted source SHALL be valid JavaScript — TypeScript type annotations MUST be stripped during extraction.
+
+#### Scenario: Arrow function callback extracted
+- **WHEN** source contains `createTransform('size', (value) => { ... })`
+- **THEN** manifest includes `{ transforms: { "size": "(value) => { ... }" } }`
+
+#### Scenario: TypeScript annotations stripped from extraction
+- **WHEN** source contains `createTransform('typed', (value: string): string => { ... })`
+- **THEN** extracted source is `(value) => { ... }` with type annotations removed
+
+#### Scenario: Aliased import resolved
+- **WHEN** source contains `import { createTransform as ct } from '@animus-ui/system'` and `ct('foo', fn)`
+- **THEN** Rust resolves the alias and extracts the transform
+
+#### Scenario: Non-string first argument emits diagnostic
+- **WHEN** source contains `createTransform(dynamicName, fn)` where first arg is not a string literal
+- **THEN** extraction emits diagnostic: `[bail] createTransform requires a static string name, got identifier`
+
+### Requirement: Built-in transforms are self-contained
+All built-in transforms exported from `@animus-ui/system` (`size`, `borderShorthand`, `gridItem`, `gridItemRatio`) SHALL have their helper function logic inlined directly into the callback body. No callback SHALL import or reference functions from `./utils` or any other module.
+
+#### Scenario: size transform is self-contained
+- **WHEN** the `size` transform callback is extracted
+- **THEN** it contains the `percentageOrAbsolute` logic inline (no external reference)
+
+#### Scenario: borderShorthand transform is self-contained
+- **WHEN** the `borderShorthand` transform callback is extracted
+- **THEN** it contains the `numberToTemplate` logic inline (no external reference)
+
+### Requirement: Transform extraction runs during project analysis
+Transform extraction SHALL occur during `project_analyzer`'s parse phase, running on ALL discovered files (not just files with builder chains). Extracted transforms SHALL be collected into the `UniverseManifest` output alongside component data.
+
+#### Scenario: Transforms defined in separate file from builder chains
+- **WHEN** transforms are defined in `src/transforms.ts` which has no builder chains
+- **THEN** the transforms are still discovered and extracted during analysis
+
+#### Scenario: Transforms defined inline in system file
+- **WHEN** `createTransform('fluid', fn)` appears in `src/ds.ts` alongside `createSystem()`
+- **THEN** the transform is extracted from the same file during analysis
+
+#### Scenario: Duplicate transform names across files
+- **WHEN** two files both define `createTransform('size', fn)` with different callbacks
+- **THEN** extraction emits a diagnostic warning about the duplicate and uses the last-seen definition
+
+### Requirement: Graceful degradation for non-extractable transforms
+When a transform callback fails validation (external references), the system SHALL NOT halt extraction. The transform SHALL be omitted from the manifest's extracted transforms. Any `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders referencing that transform name SHALL pass through unresolved — the raw value is emitted as-is in the final CSS.
+
+#### Scenario: Non-extractable transform with strict mode off
+- **WHEN** a transform references an external symbol and `strict: false`
+- **THEN** a warning is logged, the transform is omitted, and `__TRANSFORM__size__4__` becomes `4` in the final CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Non-extractable transform with strict mode on
+- **WHEN** a transform references an external symbol and `strict: true`
+- **THEN** the build fails with a descriptive error including the transform name and external symbol

+- **WHEN** the manifest contains extracted transforms `{ size: "(value) => {...}", fluid: "(value) => {...}" }`
+- **THEN** the plugin writes a temp CJS file containing both functions and a resolver that reads input CSS, replaces `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders, and writes output CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Bin file runs under Node
+- **WHEN** the resolver file is executed via `node resolver.js input.css output.css`
+- **THEN** it reads input.css, resolves all `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders, and writes output.css
+
+#### Scenario: Bin file runs under bun
+- **WHEN** the resolver file is executed via `bun run resolver.js input.css output.css`
+- **THEN** behavior is identical to the Node execution
+
+#### Scenario: No transforms extracted — bin file skipped
+- **WHEN** the manifest contains no extracted transforms
+- **AND** the CSS contains no `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders
+- **THEN** the plugin skips bin file generation and uses the raw CSS directly
+
+### Requirement: Transform resolver handles numeric coercion
+The resolver SHALL coerce `__TRANSFORM__` raw values to numbers when the value is a valid numeric string. This matches the current subprocess behavior: transforms receive `Number(rawValue)` when `rawValue` is numeric, and the raw string otherwise.
+
+#### Scenario: Numeric string coerced to number
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `__TRANSFORM__size__4__`
+- **THEN** the transform function receives `4` (number), not `"4"` (string)
+
+#### Scenario: Non-numeric string passed as string
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `__TRANSFORM__gridItem__max__`
+- **THEN** the transform function receives `"max"` (string)
+
+#### Scenario: Empty string passed as string
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `__TRANSFORM__size____`
+- **THEN** the transform function receives `""` (string)
+
+### Requirement: Unresolvable placeholders pass through as raw values
+When a `__TRANSFORM__` placeholder references a transform name not present in the extracted transforms (e.g., because it failed validation), the resolver SHALL emit the raw value without the placeholder wrapper.
+
+#### Scenario: Unknown transform name falls through
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `__TRANSFORM__unknownFn__4__` and `unknownFn` is not in the bin file
+- **THEN** the output CSS contains `4` (the raw value)
+
+### Requirement: Bin file resolution is a single exec call
+The plugin SHALL execute the bin file via a single `execSync` call. The bin file SHALL read from an input file path (argv[2]) and write to an output file path (argv[3]). The plugin writes the raw CSS to a temp input file, executes the resolver, and reads the resolved CSS from the output file.
+
+#### Scenario: Resolution via execSync
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject` returns CSS containing `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders
+- **THEN** the plugin writes raw CSS to a temp file, executes `{runtime} run {resolverPath} {inputPath} {outputPath}`, and reads the resolved CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Exec failure in strict mode
+- **WHEN** the bin file execution fails (e.g., syntax error in extracted transform) and `strict: true`
+- **THEN** the build halts with an error describing the failure
+
+#### Scenario: Exec failure in non-strict mode
+- **WHEN** the bin file execution fails and `strict: false`
+- **THEN** a warning is logged and the raw CSS (with unresolved placeholders) is used as fallback
+
+### Requirement: Bin file cleaned up after resolution
+The plugin SHALL delete the generated bin file and temp CSS files after resolution completes (or fails). Cleanup failures SHALL be silently caught.
+
+#### Scenario: Temp files cleaned after successful resolution
+- **WHEN** bin file resolution succeeds
+- **THEN** the resolver file, input CSS file, and output CSS file are deleted from the temp directory
+
+### Requirement: Bin file resolver handles all CSS in a single pass
+The resolver SHALL process the ENTIRE combined CSS (global styles + component styles) in a single regex pass. Global styles that emit `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders SHALL be resolved in the same execution as component style placeholders.
+
+#### Scenario: Global and component transforms resolved together
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `__TRANSFORM__size__4__` from a global style and `__TRANSFORM__fluid__16-24__` from a component style
+- **THEN** both are resolved in a single bin file execution

+## NOTE
+
+> **The bin file approach described here was superseded by embedded-transform-eval (session 62) and rust-system-loader (session 67).** Transforms are resolved in-process via boa_engine during Rust `analyzeProject` — no bin file or subprocess. System loading uses NAPI `loadSystemModule()` — all 3 subprocesses eliminated (not just 2). The main `vite-extraction-plugin` spec reflects the final state.
+
+## MODIFIED Requirements (as originally proposed — fully superseded)
+
+### Requirement: Transform post-processing via bin file
+After `analyzeProject` returns CSS with `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders, the plugin SHALL resolve them by generating and executing a zero-dependency CJS bin file containing extracted transform function sources. This replaces the previous subprocess that imported the system module for live transform function execution.
+
+#### Scenario: Bin file replaces transform subprocess
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject` returns CSS containing `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders
+- **THEN** the plugin writes a bin file with extracted transform sources from the manifest, executes it via `execSync`, and reads the resolved CSS
+
+#### Scenario: No placeholders skip bin file entirely
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject` returns CSS with no `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders
+- **THEN** the plugin uses the CSS directly — no bin file generated, no exec call
+
+#### Scenario: HMR geological reset re-generates bin file
+- **WHEN** system file changes trigger a geological reset
+- **THEN** the plugin re-runs analysis, extracts fresh transform sources, and generates a new bin file for resolution
+
+### Requirement: Global styles passed as raw JSON to Rust
+The system load subprocess SHALL ship raw global style block objects as JSON (the `styles` property of each `GlobalStyleBlock`) to the plugin. The plugin SHALL pass these to `analyzeProject` as a new parameter. Rust resolves them using theme_resolver. The subprocess SHALL NOT resolve global styles.
+
+#### Scenario: Subprocess outputs raw global blocks
+- **WHEN** the system module exports a `globalStyles` block with `{ body: { m: 0, bg: '{colors.surface}' } }`
+- **THEN** subprocess 1 outputs `{ globalStyleBlocks: { globalStyles: { body: { m: 0, bg: '{colors.surface}' } } } }` as raw JSON
+
+#### Scenario: Plugin passes raw blocks to analyzeProject
+- **WHEN** the plugin receives raw global style block JSON from subprocess 1
+- **THEN** it passes the JSON string as a new parameter to `analyzeProject`
+
+### Requirement: Plugin accepts browser target configuration
+Optional `targets` and `minify` options for CSS post-processing via Lightning CSS. Auto-detects browserslist from project. No change in behavior — this requirement is restated for clarity that post-processing still applies to the combined output (global + component CSS resolved by the bin file).
+
+#### Scenario: Post-processing applies after bin file resolution
+- **WHEN** the bin file resolves `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS is post-processed with Lightning CSS (autoprefixing, optional minification) before serving via the virtual module
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Global styles resolution via standalone subprocess
+**Reason**: Replaced by Rust resolution in `analyzeProject`. See `global-styles-system` spec.
+**Migration**: `resolve-global-styles.ts` is no longer invoked. The plugin passes raw global style block JSON to `analyzeProject` instead.
+
+### Requirement: Transform post-processing via subprocess
+**Reason**: Replaced by the bin file post-processor. See `transform-bin-resolver` spec.
+**Migration**: The system load subprocess no longer writes transform resolution scripts. The plugin generates a bin file from manifest-extracted transform sources instead.

+## Context
+
+This is a research/audit change, not an implementation change. The goal is to systematically investigate 9 integration patterns surfaced by examining blockworks os-admin as a production Animus consumer.
+
+Each pattern produces one of three outcomes:
+1. **Works correctly** — document it
+2. **Fragile but functional** — document risks, consider hardening
+3. **Broken or missing** — create a follow-up change for the fix
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Audit each integration pattern with concrete evidence (code, build output, browser behavior)
+- Produce a compatibility matrix: pattern × status × action needed
+- Create follow-up proposals for any broken patterns discovered
+- Document working patterns in vite-plugin CLAUDE.md or a consumer guide
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Fixing anything in this change — research only, fixes are separate changes
+- Covering Next.js integration patterns (separate audit)
+- Testing every Vite plugin combination (focus on blockworks' actual stack)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Structured audit format
+
+Each of the 9 patterns gets a dedicated investigation producing:
+- **Status**: works / fragile / broken / unknown
+- **Evidence**: build output, browser devtools, test results
+- **Action**: document / harden / fix (with follow-up change reference)
+
+### Decision 2: Priority ordering by risk
+
+Investigate highest-risk patterns first:
+1. Tailwind layer collision (cascade correctness)
+2. Plugin ordering (build correctness)
+3. CSS-in-JS coexistence (runtime correctness)
+4. optimizeDeps interaction (dev server correctness)
+5. build.cssMinify interaction (output correctness)
+6. Monorepo workspace packages (extraction completeness)
+7. CSS Modules coexistence (co-tooling)
+8. Library mode (distribution)
+9. SSR handling (future-proofing)
+
+### Decision 3: Use blockworks as the reference consumer
+
+All investigations use blockworks os-admin as the concrete test case. Abstract "what if" scenarios are secondary to observed behavior in a real app.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Risk] Audit finds many broken patterns** → Each becomes a separate change. The audit itself doesn't fix anything — it surfaces the work. Better to know than to not know.
+
+**[Risk] Blockworks may not exercise all patterns** → Some patterns (library mode, SSR) are forward-looking. For these, use the showcase or a minimal reproduction instead.
+
+**[Risk] Findings may be version-specific** → Tailwind v3 vs v4, Vite 5 vs 6, etc. Document versions tested.

+# Vite Integration Patterns & Consumer Surface Audit
+
+## Problem
+
+Animus extraction works in the showcase (controlled environment) but real-world Vite apps like blockworks os-admin exercise a much broader integration surface. Several patterns need investigation to determine whether they work, are fragile, or are silently broken.
+
+This is a research/audit proposal — no single bug, but a set of integration concerns surfaced by examining a production consumer.
+
+## Integration Patterns to Investigate
+
+### 1. Tailwind + PostCSS Layer Collision
+
+Blockworks has PostCSS with `tailwindcss` plugin AND custom layers: `['anm-global', 'reset', 'base', 'tokens', 'recipes', 'anm-base', ...]`.
+
+Tailwind's `@tailwind base` directive emits into `@layer base`. If the consumer's custom `base` layer is the SAME `@layer base`, Tailwind's reset CSS and the consumer's component CSS share a layer — this may be intentional or accidental.
+
+**Research:** How does Tailwind's `@layer base/components/utilities` interact with consumer-defined layers of the same name? Is collision avoidable? Should we warn?
+
+### 2. Plugin Ordering Effects
+
+Blockworks runs `reactRouter()` before `animusExtract()`. React Router's Vite plugin modifies the build pipeline (adds routing conventions, SSR stubs, code splitting boundaries).
+
+**Research:** Does plugin ordering affect virtual module resolution, CSS import processing, or transform hook execution? Should we document recommended ordering or enforce it?
+
+### 3. CSS-in-JS Coexistence Model
+
+Blockworks uses Chakra UI v3 + Emotion alongside Animus extraction. Emotion produces unlayered runtime CSS. Animus produces layered static CSS. Currently they coexist because unlayered CSS wins in the cascade.
+
+**Research:** Are there edge cases where Emotion and Animus target the same element with conflicting styles? What happens when a Chakra component is wrapped in an Animus `.extend()` chain? Document the coexistence model explicitly.
+
+### 4. optimizeDeps / Pre-bundling Interaction
+
+Blockworks includes `@animus-ui/system` in `optimizeDeps.include`. Vite pre-bundles this for dev server speed. But the extraction plugin also reads the system file via NAPI `loadSystemModule()`.
+
+**Research:** Does pre-bundling affect the system file's availability or content? Is there a race condition between pre-bundling and `buildStart`? Should `@animus-ui/system` be in `optimizeDeps.exclude` instead?
+
+### 5. CSS Modules Coexistence
+
+Projects may use CSS Modules (`.module.css`) alongside Animus extraction. CSS Modules produce scoped class names and may use `@layer` internally.
+
+**Research:** Do CSS Modules interact with Animus's `@layer` structure? Does Vite's CSS Module processing affect the virtual stylesheet?
+
+### 6. Vite Library Mode
+
+Building a component library (`build.lib`) rather than an application. The output is a package consumed by other apps.
+
+**Research:** Does extraction work in library mode? How should the CSS be delivered — bundled in the package, or as a separate artifact? Does `virtual:animus/styles.css` resolve correctly in library builds?
+
+### 7. SSR Handling
+
+Blockworks has `ssr: false` but configures `ssr.noExternal`. If SSR were enabled, the virtual module needs server-side handling.
+
+**Research:** What happens with `virtual:animus/styles.css` during SSR? Does the `load` hook return CSS for both client and server environments? Should the plugin detect SSR and handle differently?
+
+### 8. Monorepo Workspace Component Packages
+
+Blockworks imports from `@blockworks/ui-kit` (workspace package). Currently, external DS packages are discovered via system file imports (`extractSystemFilePackages`).
+
+**Research:** If `@blockworks/ui-kit` contains Animus components that are NOT imported by the system file, are they discovered? Should there be explicit config for component package directories?
+
+### 9. build.cssMinify: false Pattern
+
+Blockworks disables Vite's CSS minification. This may be because our Lightning CSS processing already handles it, or because of conflicts.
+
+**Research:** Is this necessary? Is it documented? What happens if both our postProcessCss AND Vite's minification run?
+
+## Grounding Data
+
+### Blockworks os-admin Configuration
+
+```typescript
+// vite.config.ts (relevant sections)
+animusExtract({
+  system: './src/ds.ts',
+  layers: ['anm-global', 'reset', 'base', 'tokens', 'recipes', 
+           'anm-base', 'anm-variants', 'anm-compounds', 'anm-states', 
+           'anm-system', 'anm-custom'],
+})

+// Dependencies
+@animus-ui/system: 0.1.0-next.49
+@animus-ui/vite-plugin: 0.1.0-next.49
+@chakra-ui/react: 3.34.0
+@emotion/react: 11.14.0
+tailwindcss: 3.4.17 (dev)
+vite: 7.3.1
+react-router: 7.13.1
+
+// CSS entry: entry.client.tsx
+import 'virtual:animus/styles.css';
+
+// Path aliases
+@admin/* → ./src/*
+@route/* → ./.react-router/types/src/pages/*
+```
+
+### Showcase Configuration (controlled baseline)
+
+```typescript
+animusExtract({
+  system: './src/ds.ts',
+  layers: ['reset', 'anm-global', 'anm-base', ..., 'anm-custom', 'overrides'],
+})
+// No Tailwind, no Emotion, no path aliases, no external packages

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Integration pattern compatibility audit
+Each integration pattern SHALL be investigated and classified as works / fragile / broken with concrete evidence.
+
+#### Scenario: Tailwind layer collision audit
+- **WHEN** a project uses Tailwind's `@tailwind base` alongside Animus custom layers that include `base`
+- **THEN** the audit SHALL determine whether Tailwind's `@layer base` and the consumer's `base` layer merge or conflict
+- **AND** document whether the Animus `validateLayerOrder` function should warn about Tailwind layer name collisions
+
+#### Scenario: Plugin ordering audit
+- **WHEN** `reactRouter()` is registered before `animusExtract()` in the Vite plugin array
+- **THEN** the audit SHALL verify that virtual module resolution, CSS import processing, and transform hooks execute correctly
+- **AND** document any ordering requirements or recommendations
+
+#### Scenario: CSS-in-JS coexistence audit
+- **WHEN** Emotion/Chakra runtime CSS and Animus extracted CSS target the same element
+- **THEN** the audit SHALL document cascade behavior (unlayered Emotion > layered Animus)
+- **AND** identify any edge cases where this model breaks
+
+#### Scenario: optimizeDeps interaction audit
+- **WHEN** `@animus-ui/system` is in `optimizeDeps.include`
+- **THEN** the audit SHALL verify that pre-bundling does not interfere with `loadSystemModule()` or `analyzeProject()`
+
+#### Scenario: CSS minification interaction audit
+- **WHEN** Vite's `build.cssMinify` is false (as in blockworks)
+- **THEN** the audit SHALL determine whether this is required, recommended, or incidental
+- **AND** document whether our Lightning CSS processing conflicts with Vite's default esbuild minification
+
+#### Scenario: Monorepo workspace package audit
+- **WHEN** a workspace package (e.g., `@blockworks/ui-kit`) contains Animus components not imported by the system file
+- **THEN** the audit SHALL determine whether those components are discovered and extracted
+- **AND** document the current discovery mechanism and any gaps
+
+#### Scenario: CSS Modules coexistence audit
+- **WHEN** `.module.css` files exist alongside Animus-extracted CSS
+- **THEN** the audit SHALL verify that CSS Modules' scoped classes do not interfere with Animus `@layer` structure
+
+#### Scenario: Library mode audit
+- **WHEN** Vite is configured with `build.lib` to produce a component library
+- **THEN** the audit SHALL determine whether extraction works and how CSS should be distributed
+
+#### Scenario: SSR handling audit
+- **WHEN** SSR is enabled (unlike blockworks' `ssr: false`)
+- **THEN** the audit SHALL verify that `virtual:animus/styles.css` is handled correctly in server-side rendering
+
+### Requirement: Compatibility matrix output
+The audit SHALL produce a compatibility matrix documenting each pattern's status.
+
+#### Scenario: Matrix format
+- **WHEN** all 9 patterns have been investigated
+- **THEN** the output SHALL be a table with columns: Pattern, Status (works/fragile/broken), Evidence, Action (document/harden/fix)
+- **AND** any pattern marked "fix" SHALL reference a follow-up change proposal

+# Tasks: vite-integration-patterns
+
+## High-priority audits
+
+- [ ] **Tailwind layer collision**: Build blockworks os-admin, inspect output CSS for `@layer base` from both Tailwind and consumer config. Determine if layers merge. Check if `validateLayerOrder` should warn.
+- [ ] **Plugin ordering**: Test `animusExtract()` before and after `reactRouter()` in blockworks. Check virtual module resolution, transform hook order, CSS import processing.
+- [ ] **CSS-in-JS coexistence**: Find an element styled by both Emotion (Chakra) and Animus in blockworks. Inspect cascade behavior in devtools. Document the model.
+
+## Medium-priority audits
+
+- [ ] **optimizeDeps interaction**: Check if `@animus-ui/system` in `optimizeDeps.include` affects `loadSystemModule()`. Test with and without.
+- [ ] **build.cssMinify interaction**: Build blockworks with `cssMinify: true` (currently false). Check if double-processing (our Lightning CSS + Vite's esbuild) corrupts output.
+- [ ] **Monorepo workspace packages**: Check if `@blockworks/ui-kit` contains Animus components. If so, verify they're discovered by the extraction pipeline.
+
+## Lower-priority audits

+## Context
+
+`rc-channel-graduation` §3B shipped the `keyframes()` collection factory and extraction-time binding substitution for `animationName: animations.X`. End-to-end proof lives only in `packages/_integration/__tests__/keyframes-binding-substitution.test.ts`, which runs through the direct `runPipeline` harness — it exercises the Rust extractor and the `_integration` glue, but neither the Vite plugin adapter (rollup) nor the Next plugin adapter (webpack). Both plugins have their own `__brand === 'Keyframes'` discovery path on top of the shared Rust `system_loader`. A regression in either plugin's discovery layer would silently break production consumers while leaving the harness green.
+
+Empirical grounding this session:
+- `packages/showcase/dist/assets/styles-DrhVMMEb.css` contains `@keyframes animus-kf-<hash>` block declarations AND `animation-name:animus-kf-<hash>` references directly in the emitted CSS file (confirmed via grep). This establishes that, at least for the Vite adapter, binding substitution lands CSS-side — not JS-side.
+- `e2e/next-app/.next/static/css/*.css` contains zero `animation-name` references because no fixture currently uses keyframes. The Next plugin's keyframes path is presently unexercised.
+
+The latent `applyUnitFallback` bug caught during §3B (hash-suffix `1w7pb41` was mangled to `animus-kf-1w7pb41px` because `animation-name` was missing from `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES`) was fixed by source edit but is not regression-guarded anywhere. It would re-occur if `animation-name` were removed or renamed.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Prove `keyframes()` collection discovery works through BOTH the Vite plugin (rollup) and Next plugin (webpack) adapters — not just through the shared Rust extractor.
+- Prove extraction-time binding substitution for `animationName: collection.X` produces a static `animation-name: animus-kf-<hash>` CSS declaration that matches an emitted `@keyframes animus-kf-<hash>` block in the same output.
+- Regression-proof the unit-fallback `px` mangling guard on identifier-valued `animation-name` declarations at the post-build layer (so any future removal of `animation-name` from `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES` fails the build, not a visual audit).
+- Enforce the cascade-contract invariant that keyframe blocks land inside `@layer anm-global`.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Changes to the keyframes feature itself (`packages/system/src/keyframes.ts`, `packages/extract/src/system_loader.rs`, `packages/extract/src/theme_resolver.rs` are all untouched).
+- Multi-collection or cross-package keyframes scenarios; a single `animations` export per fixture is sufficient to prove the discovery + substitution path.
+- Changes to `packages/_integration/__tests__/keyframes-binding-substitution.test.ts` — it continues as harness-level authoritative proof for mechanics.
+- Production-grade assertion of specific authored keyframe names (would require importing from the fixture app into `_assertions`, violating the one-way dependency rule — see question (e)).
+
+## Decisions
+
+### D1: Helper lives in `@animus-ui/assertions`, CSS-only
+
+**Decision:** Add `assertKeyframesExtracted(css: string, config?: KeyframesAssertionConfig): void` to `packages/_assertions/src/assert-css.ts`. Pure function over a CSS string, no I/O, no JS-side helper.
+
+**Rationale:** The showcase CSS audit this session confirmed that both the Vite adapter and (by the shared Rust path) the Next adapter land `animation-name` references in emitted CSS, not in JS bundle scope. The extractor substitutes the identifier at Rust evaluation time, before CSS serialization — there's no runtime hook on the JS side that would later splice a keyframe name into JSX. A JS-side helper would be dead code until a future feature required it.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- `assertKeyframesInJs(jsContent: string)` shipped alongside, covering the case where webpack splits `animation-name` into a JS module scope. Rejected on grounding evidence. If a future pipeline change (e.g., CSS-in-JS interop shim) reintroduces JS-side references, add the helper then.
+
+### D2: Helper signature has four configurable knobs
+
+**Decision:** `KeyframesAssertionConfig = { minBlocks?: number; minReferences?: number; namePrefix?: string; insideLayer?: string }` with defaults `{ minBlocks: 1, minReferences: 1, namePrefix: 'animus-kf-', insideLayer: undefined }`.
+
+**Rationale:** Count-based thresholds (`min*`) survive fixture edits — adding a new keyframe doesn't break the assertion, removing all keyframes does. `namePrefix` is configurable for future prefix-scheme migrations without helper churn. `insideLayer` is opt-in because not every call site needs cascade-placement proof (unit tests for the helper itself don't, but build assertions do).
+
+### D3: Six invariants in one helper, not six helpers
+
+**Decision:** One helper checks all six invariants (block count, reference count, dangling refs, px-mangling, cascade placement, prefix conformance) and throws `AssertionError` on the first failure.
+
+**Rationale:** A single helper is the correct abstraction boundary because the invariants are coupled — you cannot meaningfully check "no dangling references" without also collecting the block names. Splitting into six helpers would force every call site to make the same six calls in the same order, creating repetition and a vector for drift.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- Six tiny helpers with one-invariant each. Rejected for repetition and drift risk.
+- One helper + one extended helper (`assertKeyframesExtractedStrict` that also verifies cascade placement). Rejected — the `insideLayer` opt-in config achieves the same thing with less surface.
+
+### D4: Fixture component is per-app (not via test-ds)
+
+**Decision:** Each e2e app gets its own new component file (e.g., `components/Pulse.tsx`) that defines a `ds.styles({ animationName: animations.X, ... }).asElement(...)` component locally. `@animus-ui/test-ds` is NOT modified.
+
+**Rationale:** `test-ds` is currently styling-only and deliberately scoped to prove the cross-package `includes()` discovery path, not to house every shared primitive. Adding animation to it would broaden its role and couple the change to multiple consumers. Per-app fixtures localize scope to the two e2e surfaces that actually need proof — and duplicating a five-line component across two apps is cheaper than evolving a shared dependency.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- Shared animated component in `@animus-ui/test-ds`. Rejected on scope grounds.
+- One shared component in `packages/_integration/fixtures/`. Rejected because `_integration` is harness-only; consuming it from `e2e/*` would invert the workspace topology (packages should not import from e2e, but `_integration` is structured around the harness, not as a reusable fixture library).
+
+### D5: Showcase assertion is included
+
+**Decision:** `scripts/assert-showcase-build.ts` gets the `assertKeyframesExtracted` call. In scope for this change.
+
+**Rationale:** The showcase already exports `animations` from §3B — the fixture cost is zero. Adding the assertion costs a single `await assertKeyframesExtracted(css, { insideLayer: 'anm-global' })` line. Failing to include it leaves a tier of the verification pyramid (Vite adapter + showcase build + real-world complexity of MDX content) without a keyframes-specific positional guard, even though the output already demonstrates the invariants hold. This is the textbook case for "free coverage".
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- Leave showcase out of scope, narrow the change to exactly the two e2e apps. Defensible on scope-purity grounds (the proposal's title says "e2e"), but wasteful. If the user wants the narrowed shape, drop §4 of tasks.md and remove the `showcase-output-assertions` delta; the change is otherwise unaffected.
+
+### D6: Helper naming — `assertKeyframesExtracted`
+
+**Decision:** `assertKeyframesExtracted(css, config?)`.
+
+**Rationale:** Sibling helpers follow `assert<VerbObject>` form (`assertLayerOrder`, `assertNoPlaceholders`, `assertClassNameFormat`, `assertNoUnresolvedTokens`, `assertNoEmotionImports`). "Extracted" is the verb because the full invariant set proves static extraction landed the declarations correctly — it's not just that they're emitted (which "Emitted" would suggest), nor that they're specifically static (which "Static" would suggest and already implies extracted). "Extracted" covers the full lift: discovered → substituted → emitted → cascaded correctly.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- `assertKeyframesEmitted` — weaker semantic; emission alone doesn't imply substitution succeeded.
+- `assertStaticKeyframes` — ambiguous adjective; "static" could mean the helper itself is stateless.
+
+### D7: Count-based thresholds only, no `expectedNames` mode
+
+**Decision:** The helper does not accept an `expectedNames: string[]` parameter that cross-references emitted names against an authored list.
+
+**Rationale:** Authored-names mode would require the assertion call site (in `e2e/*/scripts/assert-build.ts`) to import the actual `animations` collection from the fixture's `src/ds.ts`. This is legal for the call site (the script is part of the e2e app itself) but would make the helper's fail-modes depend on a separate import that must be kept in sync. More seriously, if we wanted to unit-test the authored-names mode, the test fixtures would need keyframe collections too, pulling `_assertions` transitively close to the system package. Count-based thresholds survive fixture edits cleanly and still produce meaningful failure messages ("expected ≥2 blocks, found 0" is actionable; the dangling-reference check provides structural correctness beyond counts).
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- `expectedNames` as optional opt-in, default off. Rejected as complexity without a current use case. If future coverage demands name-pinning, revisit then.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk]** The Next plugin (webpack adapter) might emit `animation-name` into JS module scope (e.g., as part of a chunk manifest or style injection module) rather than into the static CSS file, leaving the CSS-only assertion toothless. → **Mitigation:** Task 2.4 explicitly runs `verify:build:next` before the assertion call and inspects the emitted `.next/static/css/*.css` files to confirm `animation-name:animus-kf-*` is present before committing the assertion logic. If it's missing from CSS, pause the apply and revisit D1.
+- **[Risk]** Adding a rendered component to `app/page.tsx` (RSC) might trip an extraction edge case not yet covered in the Next fixture, given that §3B shipped without an e2e-next keyframes consumer. → **Mitigation:** The task ordering puts the Next wiring (§2) before the Vite wiring (§3) so a failure there is caught first, with the Vite path in reserve as a known-working reference to diff against.
+- **[Risk]** `insideLayer: 'anm-global'` brace-counting might mis-track if Lightning CSS minification produces unusual brace patterns (e.g., CSS `content: "{"` inside a rule). → **Mitigation:** The emitted CSS for `@layer anm-global` in both adapters contains only reset rules + keyframes blocks — no `content` declarations with brace characters. If this becomes fragile in future, move to a stricter parser-based approach.
+- **[Trade-off]** Count-based thresholds (D7) don't catch the case where the wrong keyframes are emitted (e.g., if a refactor renames `ember` → `flame` but leaves the count right). The dangling-reference check catches the *structural* mismatch, but not the *semantic* one. Acceptable — semantic correctness is the integration test's job.
+- **[Trade-off]** Per-app components (D4) mean a future change to the keyframes API would require touching two fixture locations. Acceptable — the two locations are each ~10 lines and intentionally scoped for plugin-adapter coverage.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+Additive change. No migration, no rollback concerns, no deprecations. Apply order:
+
+1. Land the assertion helper + unit tests in isolation (passes `verify:unit:ts`).
+2. Wire Next fixture and extend the next-app assertion script; verify via `verify:next`.
+3. Mirror for Vite; verify via `verify:vite`.
+4. Extend showcase assertion script; verify via `verify:showcase`.
+5. Full-surface `verify:full` as the final gate.
+
+If any tier fails, the previous phases remain independently useful — the helper is production-ready even if one adapter's wiring is deferred.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+None remain. All five design questions flagged during proposal authoring are resolved above (D1–D7). If the user wishes to reopen any, the relevant decision's "Alternatives considered" section captures the dropped path and the rationale for dropping it.

+## Why
+
+The §3B keyframes feature (shipped via `rc-channel-graduation`) has end-to-end proof today only through the direct `runPipeline` harness in `packages/_integration/__tests__/keyframes-binding-substitution.test.ts`. Neither the Next.js plugin (webpack adapter) nor the Vite plugin (rollup adapter) has a post-build positional assertion proving that (a) the branded `keyframes()` collection is discovered via `__brand === 'Keyframes'` on its own plugin-side discovery path, (b) extraction-time binding substitution survives that plugin's bundling pipeline intact, (c) the FNV-1a hash-suffix naming scheme is not re-mangled by the `applyUnitFallback` pipeline (the latent `animus-kf-<hash>px` bug caught mid-session during `rc-channel-graduation` §3B), and (d) the emitted blocks land inside `@layer anm-global` as the cascade contract requires. An invariant proven only through the direct harness is one regression away from silent breakage in production consumers.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Add a position-aware `assertKeyframesExtracted(css, config?)` helper to `@animus-ui/assertions` covering six invariants in a single call: minimum block count, minimum prefixed `animation-name` reference count, no dangling references (every reference has a matching block), no unit-fallback `px` mangling on identifier-valued names, optional `insideLayer` span constraint, configurable `namePrefix` (default `animus-kf-`).
+- Add a `keyframes()` collection export to `e2e/next-app/src/ds.ts` and a consuming component (`animationName: animations.X`) rendered in the App Router page (RSC-safe).
+- Add a `keyframes()` collection export to `e2e/vite-app/src/ds.ts` and a consuming component rendered in `src/App.tsx`.
+- Extend `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-build.ts` and `e2e/vite-app/scripts/assert-build.ts` to invoke `assertKeyframesExtracted(css, { insideLayer: 'anm-global', minBlocks: 2, minReferences: 1 })`.
+- Extend `scripts/assert-showcase-build.ts` to invoke the same helper against the showcase build, leveraging the `animations` collection already exported from `packages/showcase/src/ds.ts` in §3B.
+- Add unit tests to `packages/_assertions/__tests__/assert-css.test.ts` covering every invariant and its failure mode.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+None. This change is entirely additive within existing capability boundaries.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `structural-css-assertions`: adds a new REQUIREMENT for `assertKeyframesExtracted` — the helper's shape, default configuration, and the six invariants it SHALL check.
+- `next-test-app-fixtures`: adds a REQUIREMENT that the fixture defines a `keyframes()` collection export and renders at least one component consuming a branded keyframe ref via `animationName`.
+- `next-test-app-assertions`: adds a REQUIREMENT that the post-build assertion script invokes `assertKeyframesExtracted` with `insideLayer: 'anm-global'`.
+- `vite-test-app`: adds REQUIREMENTS covering both fixture-side (collection + consuming component rendered in `App.tsx`) and assertion-side (`assertKeyframesExtracted` invocation).
+- `showcase-output-assertions`: adds a REQUIREMENT that the post-build assertion script invokes `assertKeyframesExtracted` — treating the `animations` collection already present in the showcase as free coverage. Scope-reduction alternative captured in `design.md` question (c).
+
+## Impact
+
+**Affected code:**
+- `packages/_assertions/src/assert-css.ts` — new helper + exported type `KeyframesAssertionConfig`
+- `packages/_assertions/src/index.ts` — re-export only if needed (current barrel is `export * from './assert-css'`)
+- `packages/_assertions/__tests__/assert-css.test.ts` — new test block
+- `e2e/next-app/src/ds.ts` — `keyframes` import + `animations` export
+- `e2e/next-app/src/components/` — one new component file
+- `e2e/next-app/src/components/index.ts` — barrel update
+- `e2e/next-app/app/page.tsx` — render the new component (RSC page)
+- `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-build.ts` — new assertion call
+- `e2e/vite-app/src/ds.ts` — `keyframes` import + `animations` export
+- `e2e/vite-app/src/components/` — one new component file
+- `e2e/vite-app/src/components/index.ts` — barrel update
+- `e2e/vite-app/src/App.tsx` — render the new component
+- `e2e/vite-app/scripts/assert-build.ts` — new assertion call
+- `scripts/assert-showcase-build.ts` — new assertion call (if design.md (c) stays inclusive)
+
+**No-op for:**
+- `packages/system/src/keyframes.ts` — shipped in §3B, unchanged
+- `packages/extract/src/system_loader.rs` + `theme_resolver.rs` — unchanged
+- `packages/properties/src/unitless.ts` — `animation-name` entry added in §3B, unchanged (the assertion makes regression-proofing explicit)
+- `packages/_integration/__tests__/keyframes-binding-substitution.test.ts` — continues to serve as authoritative harness-level proof
+
+**Verification tier deltas per root `CLAUDE.md` Change-Type Map:**
+- `packages/_assertions/src/**` → `verify:unit:ts && verify:assert:next && verify:assert:showcase && verify:assert:vite`
+- `e2e/next-app/**` → `verify:next` (composite: `verify:build:next && verify:assert:next`)
+- `e2e/vite-app/src/**` → `verify:vite`
+- `scripts/assert-showcase-build.ts` + showcase fixture → `verify:showcase`
+
+No breaking changes. No publishable package version bumps required. No CI workflow changes.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Keyframes extraction assertion helper
+
+A shared assertion utility `assertKeyframesExtracted(css: string, config?: KeyframesAssertionConfig)` SHALL be exported from `@animus-ui/assertions` (originating in `packages/_assertions/src/assert-css.ts`). The helper SHALL validate, in a single call, that the CSS output of a fixture app correctly extracted keyframes via the `keyframes()` collection primitive. It SHALL throw `AssertionError` on the first failing invariant, returning `void` on success. It SHALL be a pure function over the input string with no I/O.
+
+The config type SHALL be:
+
+```ts
+export interface KeyframesAssertionConfig {
+  /** Minimum number of distinct @keyframes blocks expected. Default: 1. */
+  minBlocks?: number;
+  /** Minimum number of distinct animation-name references expected. Default: 1. */
+  minReferences?: number;
+  /** Prefix every emitted keyframe name must carry. Default: 'animus-kf-'. */
+  namePrefix?: string;
+  /** If set, every matched @keyframes block MUST appear inside this @layer span. */
+  insideLayer?: string;
+}
+```
+
+The helper SHALL enforce six invariants in fixed order (first failure throws):
+
+1. **Minimum block count**: at least `minBlocks` distinct `@keyframes <namePrefix>...` block declarations SHALL be present.
+2. **Minimum reference count**: at least `minReferences` distinct `animation-name: <value>` declarations whose value carries `namePrefix` SHALL be present. Keyword values (`none`, `initial`, `inherit`, `unset`, `revert`, `revert-layer`) SHALL be skipped during reference collection, case-insensitively.
+3. **No unit-fallback mangling**: no `animation-name: <namePrefix>...px` substring SHALL appear anywhere in the CSS (guards against `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES` regression). This invariant SHALL be checked BEFORE the dangling-reference check so the diagnostic identifies the `px` mangling directly rather than surfacing as a misleading "no matching block" error.
+4. **No dangling references**: every `animation-name: <namePrefix>...` value SHALL match the name of an emitted `@keyframes` block collected in invariant 1.
+5. **Cascade placement** (only when `insideLayer` is set): every matched `@keyframes` block offset SHALL fall within the opening and matching-close-brace span of SOME `@layer <insideLayer> { ... }` block in the CSS. Multiple `@layer <insideLayer>` blocks (from chunked output concatenation) SHALL all contribute valid spans. If no layer block with that name is present, invariant 5 SHALL fail.
+6. **Prefix conformance**: every emitted and referenced keyframe name involved in invariants 1–5 SHALL start with `namePrefix` (enforced by construction of invariants 1 and 2).
+
+#### Scenario: Passes for well-formed keyframes CSS
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `@layer anm-global { @keyframes animus-kf-abc { 0% {} 100% {} } @keyframes animus-kf-def { 0% {} 100% {} } }` followed by two rules each with `animation-name: animus-kf-abc` and `animation-name: animus-kf-def`
+- **THEN** `assertKeyframesExtracted(css, { minBlocks: 2, minReferences: 2, insideLayer: 'anm-global' })` SHALL NOT throw

+#### Scenario: Fails when no @keyframes blocks are present
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains only `animation-name: animus-kf-xyz` with no matching `@keyframes animus-kf-xyz` block
+- **THEN** `assertKeyframesExtracted` SHALL throw `AssertionError` whose message identifies the missing block count, and the helper SHALL throw before checking reference counts
+
+#### Scenario: Fails when an animation-name reference has no matching block
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `@keyframes animus-kf-abc { 0% {} }` plus a rule with `animation-name: animus-kf-xyz`
+- **THEN** `assertKeyframesExtracted` SHALL throw `AssertionError` identifying `animus-kf-xyz` as a dangling reference
+
+#### Scenario: Fails when unit-fallback mangles an identifier
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains a declaration `animation-name: animus-kf-1w7pb41px`
+- **THEN** `assertKeyframesExtracted` SHALL throw `AssertionError` whose message identifies the mangled value and flags that `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES` excluded `animation-name`
+
+#### Scenario: Skips CSS keyword values when counting references
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains a valid `@keyframes animus-kf-abc` block, one rule with `animation-name: animus-kf-abc`, and another rule with `animation-name: none`
+- **THEN** `assertKeyframesExtracted(css)` with the default `minReferences: 1` SHALL NOT throw (the keyword `none` SHALL NOT be counted toward the reference total)
+
+#### Scenario: Fails when a block lands outside insideLayer
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `@keyframes animus-kf-abc {}` at the top level (outside any `@layer` block) followed by `@layer anm-global {}` and a valid `animation-name: animus-kf-abc` reference
+- **THEN** `assertKeyframesExtracted(css, { insideLayer: 'anm-global' })` SHALL throw `AssertionError` identifying `animus-kf-abc` as outside the expected layer span
+
+#### Scenario: Fails when insideLayer block is entirely absent
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains valid `@keyframes animus-kf-abc {}` and `animation-name: animus-kf-abc` but NO `@layer anm-global {}` block
+- **THEN** `assertKeyframesExtracted(css, { insideLayer: 'anm-global' })` SHALL throw `AssertionError` stating that the layer block was not found
+
+#### Scenario: Honors custom namePrefix
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `@keyframes custom-abc {}` + `animation-name: custom-abc` and `assertKeyframesExtracted(css, { namePrefix: 'custom-' })` is called
+- **THEN** the helper SHALL NOT throw (prefix matching is configurable)
+
+#### Scenario: Unit tests cover every failure mode
+
+- **WHEN** `packages/_assertions/__tests__/assert-css.test.ts` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain at least one failing-input test for each of invariants 1–5, plus at least one passing-input test, covering the `insideLayer` on/off cases and the keyword-skip edge case

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Keyframes collection fixture exists in Vite test app
+
+The Vite test app's system module (`e2e/vite-app/src/ds.ts`) SHALL export a named `animations` binding that is the return value of a `keyframes()` call from `@animus-ui/system`. The collection SHALL declare at least two distinct named keyframes with different frame bodies.
+
+#### Scenario: `animations` export is a Keyframes collection
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/vite-app/src/ds.ts` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL `import { keyframes } from '@animus-ui/system'`
+- **AND** it SHALL export `animations = keyframes({ <name1>: { ... }, <name2>: { ... } })` where `<name1>` and `<name2>` have different frame bodies
+
+### Requirement: Vite app renders a keyframes-consuming component
+
+`e2e/vite-app/src/App.tsx` SHALL import and render at least one component whose `ds.styles()` declaration includes `animationName: animations.<key>` referencing the fixture's `animations` collection.
+
+#### Scenario: Component consumes a branded keyframe ref
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/vite-app/src/components/` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain at least one component file whose `ds.styles({...})` call includes `animationName: animations.<key>` as a literal member expression
+
+#### Scenario: Component is rendered in App.tsx
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/vite-app/src/App.tsx` is inspected
+- **THEN** the keyframes-consuming component SHALL appear in the returned JSX tree
+
+#### Scenario: Component is exported from the components barrel
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/vite-app/src/components/index.ts` is inspected
+- **THEN** the keyframes-consuming component SHALL be re-exported
+
+### Requirement: Post-build assertion validates keyframes extraction
+
+The Vite post-build assertion script (`e2e/vite-app/scripts/assert-build.ts`) SHALL invoke `assertKeyframesExtracted` from `@animus-ui/assertions` against the concatenated CSS output from `dist/`, with `insideLayer: 'anm-global'` and `minBlocks` matching the count of named keyframes declared in the fixture's `animations` collection.
+
+#### Scenario: Assertion script imports and invokes the helper
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/vite-app/scripts/assert-build.ts` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL import `assertKeyframesExtracted` from `@animus-ui/assertions`
+- **AND** it SHALL call `assertKeyframesExtracted(css, { insideLayer: 'anm-global', minBlocks: <N>, minReferences: 1 })` where `<N>` matches the fixture's keyframe count
+
+#### Scenario: Build failure when keyframes block is missing
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify:vite` is executed and the build output CSS is missing an expected `@keyframes animus-kf-<hash>` block
+- **THEN** `verify:assert:vite` SHALL exit with non-zero status
+- **AND** the failure message SHALL identify the missing block via `AssertionError.details`
+
+#### Scenario: Build failure when animation-name references are mangled with px
+
+- **WHEN** the build output CSS contains any `animation-name: animus-kf-<hash>px` substring
+- **THEN** `verify:assert:vite` SHALL exit with non-zero status
+- **AND** the failure message SHALL identify the mangled value

+## Context
+
+**Current state (verified this session):**
+
+- `packages/system/src/keyframes.ts`: standalone top-level factory. Accepts `Record<string, KeyframeFrameMap>` where `KeyframeFrameMap = Record<string, Record<string, unknown>>`. Returns branded collection `{ __brand: 'Keyframes', __frames, ...refs }`. Name generation is FNV-1a over serialized frame bodies (`animus-kf-<7-char-hash>`) — pure, no theme dependency at authoring time.
+- `packages/system/src/SystemBuilder.ts`: `createSystem({ includes? }).build()` returns `{ system, createGlobalStyles }`. `createGlobalStyles` is a factory closure that brands its input but **does not theme-type it** (input is `Record<string, Record<string, any>>`). `includes()` already composes `propRegistry + groupRegistry + selectorRegistry` from included systems.
+- `packages/test-ds/src/system.ts`: shared design system fixture. Contains no keyframes today — only system groups. This is a clean slate for proving cross-system keyframe propagation.
+- `packages/extract/src/`: keyframes plumbing lives across 5 files (`project_analyzer.rs`, `system_loader.rs`, `theme_resolver.rs`, `style_evaluator.rs`, `lib.rs`). Discovery currently scans named exports for `__brand === 'Keyframes'` at module top level.
+- Consumers using `keyframes({...})` as standalone: `e2e/next-app/src/ds.ts`, `e2e/vite-app/src/ds.ts`, `packages/showcase/src/ds.ts`. Each declares `animations = keyframes({...})` at module top level and exports it as a named export.
+
+**Constraints:**
+
+1. **Extraction compatibility (load-bearing)**: the Rust extractor's binding substitution (`animationName: animations.X` → static `animation-name: animus-kf-<hash>`) must continue to work. This requires the extractor to locate every keyframe collection and resolve its per-key refs to static names at emission time. The authoring surface can change; the brand + resolution contract cannot.
+2. **RSC safety**: the `.build()` return must remain synchronous and serialize-less. No closures over user state that can't cross the server/client boundary.
+3. **FNV hash stability**: names are content-addressed. Authoring-surface changes must produce identical hashes for identical frame body content.
+4. **Type-signature performance** (from project feedback): theme parameterization must use mapped flatten + generic defaults as cache boundaries, not deep inline generics. `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>` already follows this pattern — any new frame body type should too.
+5. **CLAUDE.md §1 (no mutative git)**: no branch rewrites, no reset, no checkouts that destroy work during apply.
+6. **Sequencing with `rc-channel-graduation`**: that change (31/75 active) adds the standalone `keyframes` factory to the `system-builder` capability spec via §3B. This change modifies that still-pending requirement. Ordering must be explicit in the apply plan.
+
+**Stakeholders:**
+
+- Library author (sole Staff Engineer, peer to claude-of-the-moment) — ergonomic consistency + type-safety for frame bodies.
+- Downstream consumers on `0.1.0-next.*` — absorb a breaking surface reshape in the pre-release window.
+- The Rust extractor — one more discovery path or one more re-routing.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+
+1. Single cohesive design-system import surface: `const { system, createKeyframes, createGlobalStyles } = createSystem({...}).build()` with no standalone-factory outliers.
+2. Theme-typed keyframe frame bodies: `{colors.*}`, `{space.*}`, scale tokens autocomplete and type-check inside stop bodies.
+3. Cross-system keyframe propagation via `includes()`: a consuming system built with `createSystem({ includes: [libDs] })` has access to libDs's keyframes through a well-defined semantic.
+4. Zero runtime-behavior change in extracted output: same `@keyframes animus-kf-<hash>` blocks in `@layer anm-global`, same `animation-name` references, same FNV hashes.
+5. Preserve extraction contract: `__brand === 'Keyframes'` remains the discovery tag; binding-substitution resolution continues to work across both `vite-plugin` and `next-plugin`.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+
+- Typed animation-property binding (`animationDuration`, `animationTimingFunction`, etc.) narrowed against duration/easing scales — legitimate follow-up, separate surface expansion.
+- Runtime keyframe generation. Static-only remains.
+- Per-package keyframe registries beyond what `includes()` supports.
+- Deep Rust extractor rewrite beyond minimum discovery-path adaptation.
+- FNV hash algorithm change.
+- Migration codemod publication to npm for external consumers — if a codemod is the chosen strategy (question G), it lives in-repo as a one-shot internal script; external consumers migrate manually (all on pre-release anyway).
+
+## Decisions
+
+> **Resolution policy**: the seven decisions below are **open** by design — this is the peer-Staff-Engineer deliberation surface. Each captures options and tradeoffs; the choice is made during apply (recorded here retroactively or in a follow-up annotation). Pre-answering them in the proposal would short-circuit the co-design.
+
+### Decision A — Naming: `ds.createKeyframes` vs `ds.keyframes`
+
+**Options:**
+
+- **A1 — `ds.createKeyframes({...})`** — matches sibling factory naming: `createSystem`, `createTheme`, `createComponent`, `createGlobalStyles`, `createScale`, `createTransform`, `createClassResolver`. Internal consistency argument.
+- **A2 — `ds.keyframes({...})`** — matches ecosystem precedent (emotion, styled-components, vanilla-extract). External familiarity argument. Also shorter — keyframes is already a noun-verb in common CSS-in-JS vocabulary.
+- **A3 — Both, same object.** Deprecate one, ship the other, freeze before 0.1.0.
+
+**Tradeoffs:**
+
+| Aspect | A1 (`createKeyframes`) | A2 (`keyframes`) | A3 (both) |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Internal consistency | ✓ matches `create*` pattern | ✗ outlier | partial |
+| External familiarity | ✗ uncommon form | ✓ matches CSS-in-JS convention | ✓ |
+| Surface area | 1 method | 1 method | 2 methods (worse) |
+| Migration churn (from today's standalone `keyframes`) | large — every call site renamed | small — just the import source changes | smallest |
+| Signal to reader ("this factory creates a thing") | explicit | implicit | mixed |
+
+**No recommendation in this document.** Decision driven by whose-consistency-matters-more: internal (A1) or ecosystem (A2). Peer verdict deferred to apply phase.
+
+### Decision B — Standalone `keyframes` export: remove or retain as escape hatch
+
+**Options:**
+
+- **B1 — Remove top-level `keyframes` export.** Clean surface. Hard break. Consumers who imported `{ keyframes }` from `@animus-ui/system` error at next `bun install`.
+- **B2 — Retain as theme-agnostic escape hatch.** Top-level `keyframes` remains exported, marked `@deprecated` with JSDoc pointing to the bound form. Useful for: code that runs before any `createSystem({...}).build()` call (library internals, test fixtures, documentation examples that don't want to set up a full system).
+- **B3 — Retain unmarked but de-emphasized.** Top-level export remains, no deprecation warning, just off the primary docs path.
+
+**Tradeoffs:**
+
+| Aspect | B1 (remove) | B2 (deprecated) | B3 (retain) |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Surface minimalism | ✓ | partial | ✗ |
+| Break-radius | wide | narrow (deprecation warning, no runtime fail) | zero |
+| Test-fixture / internal-use ergonomics | must set up ds | direct | direct |
+| "Two ways to do the same thing" smell | none | mild (but intentional) | strong |
+
+**No recommendation.** Depends on whether we have any in-repo call sites where a system-free keyframes factory is load-bearing. Quick audit (deferred to apply): `packages/system/__tests__/`, showcase MDX examples, any future docs primitive that needs standalone keyframe examples.
+
+### Decision C — Cross-system propagation via `includes()`
+
+When `const { system: appDs } = createSystem({ includes: [libDs] }).addGroup(...).build()`, how does libDs's keyframes collection appear on appDs?
+
+**Options:**
+
+- **C1 — Flat merge on build.** `appDs.createKeyframes({ local: {...} })` returns a collection that includes both `local.*` keys and all keys from every included system's collections. Name collisions (same key `ember` defined in libDs and locally) resolve via a chosen policy: (c1a) last-write-wins (local overrides included), (c1b) first-write-wins (includes win, local throws on collision), (c1c) throw at build time on collision (strict).
+- **C2 — Namespaced access.** `appDs.animations.local.ember`, `appDs.animations.includes.libDs.flow`. Explicit, noisier, reveals provenance at the call site.
+- **C3 — Pass-through only.** `includes()` does **not** touch keyframes. Cross-package keyframes flow through regular named imports (`import { animations } from 'libDs'`), locally through the bound form. Heterogeneous consumer surface: _sometimes_ you import from a sibling package, _sometimes_ you use `ds.createKeyframes`. Rust extractor already handles both patterns (it resolves any named export carrying the brand).
+
+**Tradeoffs:**
+
+| Aspect | C1 (flat merge) | C2 (namespaced) | C3 (pass-through) |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Ergonomics (single access point) | ✓ best | medium | worst |
+| Explicit provenance | ✗ | ✓ best | ✓ (via import path) |
+| Name-collision handling | requires policy | impossible (namespaced) | impossible (scoped to declaration) |
+| Extractor complexity | must merge at some point | must walk namespace tree | unchanged (already works) |
+| Consumer mental model consistency | ✓ aligns with other `includes()` propagation (props, groups, selectors) | new namespace pattern, doesn't match other propagation | inconsistent with other propagation |
+| Type-system cost (`ThemedKeyframeFrame<Theme>` merge types) | moderate (accumulator merge) | lower (no merge) | lowest (no cross-system types) |
+
+**Collision-policy sub-matrix** (applies to C1 only):
+
+| Policy | Safety | Ergonomics | Precedent in Animus |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| c1a last-write-wins | ✗ silent override | ✓ no user action | `addProp` uses this — familiar |
+| c1b first-write-wins | ✗ silent override (reverse) | ✓ | no precedent |
+| c1c throw on collision | ✓ explicit | ✗ requires rename | `addProp` throws on "different definition" collisions |
+
+**No recommendation.** The symmetry argument (keyframes should propagate like props do, via C1+c1a for consistency, or C1+c1c for safety) is strong but there's a genuine tension: props are position-insensitive while keyframe names become part of the emitted CSS name (through the FNV hash) — a "collision" on the authoring-key side doesn't actually collide on the emission side (different bodies → different hashes). So maybe C3 is cleaner than it looks: there's no true conflict, only a bookkeeping question, and imports already handle bookkeeping.
+
+### Decision D — `createGlobalStyles` theme-typing parity: same change or separate
+
+**Options:**
+
+- **D1 — Same change.** Extend scope to also theme-parameterize `GlobalStyleMap`. One migration event covers both typed surfaces. Slightly larger PR.
+- **D2 — Separate follow-up.** This change ships keyframes binding + typing only. A follow-up change (`typed-global-styles`?) ships the globalStyles parity. Smaller blast radius, clearer history.
+
+**Tradeoffs:**
+
+| Aspect | D1 (same change) | D2 (separate) |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Reviewer cognitive load | 2 surfaces at once | 1 surface at a time |
+| Consumer migration events | 1 | 2 |
+| Pre-0.1.0 cleanup completeness | ✓ | partial (debt carried) |
+| Risk of scope creep | moderate | low |
+| Change-history clarity | "typed style factories bound" | "bound keyframes" + "typed global styles" — grep-cleaner |
+
+**No recommendation.** Cognitive-load argument favors D2; completeness-before-0.1.0 argument favors D1.
+
+### Decision E — Frame body type shape
+
+`ThemedCSSProps<Theme>` (used by `.styles()`) carries nested selectors (`&:hover`, `@media`), responsive tuples, pseudo-states. Keyframe frame bodies are narrower: a stop (`0%`, `from`, `to`) maps to a flat map of CSS props, no selectors, no responsive values (since keyframes are inherently non-responsive at the stop level).
+
+**Options:**
+
+- **E1 — Reuse `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>`.** Zero new type surface. Invalid constructs (nested selectors, responsive values inside stops) are rejected at _runtime_ by the emission pipeline or silently allowed but meaningless. Type system accepts invalid input; consumer gets CSS mystery meat.
+- **E2 — New narrower `ThemedKeyframeFrame<Theme>`.** Flat CSS prop map with theme-token awareness. No nested selectors, no responsive tuples, no pseudo-states. Invalid constructs are rejected at compile time.
+- **E3 — Stricter still.** E2 + exclude features that don't make sense in animations (e.g., `display`, `position` changes are legal but unusual; could be opt-in).
+
+**Tradeoffs:**
+
+| Aspect | E1 (reuse) | E2 (narrower) | E3 (strictest) |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Type-system real estate | least | medium | most |
+| Correctness at compile time | ✗ accepts nonsense | ✓ | ✓✓ |
+| Cognitive load for consumers (new type to learn) | none | 1 new | 1 new + surprising restrictions |
+| Signature performance (TS compile) | reuses cache | new cache boundary | new + narrow filter |
+| Alignment with existing Animus type philosophy (`narrow-primitive-inline`, strict keys) | ✗ | ✓ | ✓✓ |
+
+**No recommendation.** E2 is the obvious middle and probably right, but the philosophical match argument pushes toward E3.
+
+### Decision F — Extractor discovery path
+
+**Options:**
+
+- **F1 — Assignment-to-named-export convention.** Consumer writes `export const animations = ds.createKeyframes({...})` or similar. Return value still carries `__brand === 'Keyframes'`. Rust extractor's existing named-export scan finds it transparently. No extractor plumbing change needed.
+- **F2 — Value-trace through ds.** Rust extractor traces ds-variable usage to find builder-method invocations whose returns carry the brand. More robust (works whether or not the collection is exported), more plumbing.
+
+**Tradeoffs:**
+
+| Aspect | F1 (named-export convention) | F2 (value-trace) |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Rust plumbing required | zero | non-trivial |
+| Robustness to consumer style | requires discipline (but natural) | captures all patterns |
+| Matches existing extractor philosophy | ✓ (the extractor already scans named exports for `__brand === 'Keyframes'` on the standalone factory's output) | requires new analyzer capability |
+| Apply-phase risk | low | moderate (touches 5 Rust files) |
+| Future-proofing (e.g., inlined keyframes without an export) | ✗ (requires export) | ✓ (works anywhere) |
+
+**No recommendation.** F1 is the path of least resistance; F2 is the more thorough design. The load-bearing constraint: any collection whose keys are substituted at extraction time MUST be reachable by the extractor. If the consumer never exports it, how does the extractor find it? F1 forces the consumer to make it findable; F2 handles the case where they don't.
+
+### Decision G — Migration strategy for in-repo consumers
+
+Three consumers today: `e2e/next-app/src/ds.ts`, `e2e/vite-app/src/ds.ts`, `packages/showcase/src/ds.ts`.
+
+**Options:**
+
+- **G1 — One-shot codemod script.** In-repo `scripts/codemod-keyframes-binding.ts` that rewrites `import { keyframes } from '@animus-ui/system'` + `animations = keyframes({...})` → appropriate bound-form call sites. Run once during apply. External consumers not in scope.
+- **G2 — Deprecation cycle within `0.1.0-next.*`.** Keep both forms for 2+ `next` versions, emit a console warning on standalone use, eventually remove.
+- **G3 — Hard break.** Remove standalone on the same version that introduces the bound form. Three in-repo consumers migrated manually (trivial — 3 files × ~5 lines). External `0.1.0-next.*` consumers absorb.
+
+**Tradeoffs:**
+
+| Aspect | G1 (codemod) | G2 (deprecation) | G3 (hard break) |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Effort (in-repo) | small (3 files) + codemod script | medium (dual-path code) | smallest (manual edit 3 files) |
+| External consumer kindness | medium (codemod available) | high (deprecation period) | low (hard break) |
+| Pre-0.1.0 context justifies hardness | ✓ | overkill | ✓ |
+| Dual-path code surface | none | yes — pollutes builder during transition | none |
+| Likelihood of external consumers | minimal (all on pre-release) | unknown | minimal |
+
+**No recommendation.** Given all published versions are `0.1.0-next.*`, G3 is defensible — the pre-release marker is the deprecation signal. G1 is the "polite" choice if we care about our future selves (the codemod doubles as living documentation of the migration).
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **Risk**: `rc-channel-graduation` §3B hasn't archived, so the canonical `system-builder` spec doesn't yet contain the standalone-keyframes-factory requirement this change modifies. → **Mitigation**: tasks.md phase 0 explicitly blocks apply until either (a) rc-channel-graduation §3B archives, or (b) the keyframes-factory requirement is absorbed into this change's scope with coordination from the library author. Either path is fine; just not ambiguous.
+- **Risk**: Theme-typing frame bodies adds a new generic parameter path through the builder. Generic-parameter depth is a TypeScript compile-time performance hazard (project memory: `feedback_type_signature_performance`). → **Mitigation**: use `Assign` / `Merge` mapped-type primitives already in `packages/system/src/theme/` as cache boundaries. Add a targeted type-test to `verify:types` that asserts the compile-time cost of `ds.createKeyframes({...})` doesn't regress a baseline.
+- **Risk**: Cross-system `includes()` keyframe propagation (C1 flat merge) requires accumulating keyframe collections through the builder's `#includesRegistry`. The registry currently holds `IncludableSystem = { toConfig(): SerializedConfig }`. Extending it to carry keyframe collections expands the contract. → **Mitigation**: if C1 is chosen, extend `IncludableSystem` to also include `toKeyframes?: () => Record<string, KeyframeCollection>` (or equivalent), making the propagation explicit at the type level and allowing included systems that pre-date this change (or have no keyframes) to opt out cleanly.
+- **Risk**: Rust extractor plumbing (F2) touches 5 files and changes a load-bearing invariant (how keyframes are discovered). Full `verify:integration` + `verify:assert:next` + `verify:assert:vite` + `verify:assert:showcase` must pass. → **Mitigation**: F1 (named-export convention) avoids Rust changes entirely — preferred path unless question F resolves to F2 for future-proofing.
+- **Trade-off**: Naming decision (A1 vs A2) is irreversible at the ecosystem level once shipped. We get one naming choice for the primary keyframes surface. Decision should be made with the other Staff Engineer in the room, not auto-resolved.
+- **Trade-off**: Deciding D=same-change (ship globalStyles parity together) trades breadth for depth — more churn in one change, but no "half-typed factories" intermediate state. Deciding D=separate is safer but leaves globalStyles in its untyped state until the follow-up ships.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+Seven open questions, listed in the Decisions section:
+
+- **A**: Naming — `ds.createKeyframes` vs `ds.keyframes`.
+- **B**: Standalone export — remove, retain-as-escape-hatch, or keep-unmarked.
+- **C**: `includes()` propagation semantics — flat merge (with collision policy sub-question), namespaced access, or pass-through only.
+- **D**: `createGlobalStyles` theme-typing parity — same change or separate follow-up.
+- **E**: Frame body type shape — reuse `ThemedCSSProps`, narrower new type, or strictest narrow-plus.
+- **F**: Extractor discovery path — named-export convention (no Rust change) or value-trace (Rust plumbing).
+- **G**: Migration strategy — codemod, deprecation cycle, or hard break.
+
+Resolution path: all questions resolved in a dedicated apply-phase design review before writing code. Specs and tasks are authored against the _structure_ of the decisions (any path) and refined in-place once answered.
+
+## Resolution Record (2026-04-19)
+
+Apply-phase peer resolution. Specs and tasks normalized to reflect.
+
+- **0.1 Sequencing**: path **(a)** — `rc-channel-graduation` §3B archives first with the standalone factory requirement; this change MODIFIES/REMOVES that requirement in its own archive cycle. Path (c) redirect was considered but rejected: rc's §3B tasks ship the standalone form in code; redirecting rc's spec without also re-doing its tasks creates a code/spec/task tri-way mismatch at archive. Path (a) lets each change complete on its own timeline; spec-history cost is cosmetic since the standalone never archives as a stable release.
+- **A Naming**: **A1 `createKeyframes`**. Matches 8 sibling `create*` factories (`createSystem`, `createTheme`, `createComponent`, `createGlobalStyles`, `createScale`, `createTransform`, `createClassResolver`, `createComposedFamily`) in `.build()` destructure context. Internal consistency outweighs ecosystem familiarity when the reader is already destructuring from `.build()`.
+- **B Standalone retention**: **B1 remove**. No internal `packages/system/` consumers of the standalone form; all 3 in-repo consumers (next-app, vite-app, showcase) migrate in Phase 3. All published versions `0.1.0-next.*` — pre-release marker is the deprecation contract.
+- **C `includes()` propagation**: **C3 pass-through**. Peer pushback (user: "confused on actual value of the thing") metabolized — cross-package keyframes already flow through regular named imports which the extractor resolves via `__brand === 'Keyframes'` scan. `includes()` is for things the builder needs in types/validation (props, groups, selectors); keyframes aren't in that set. The earlier "symmetry with addProp" argument was rationalization, not a load-bearing need.
+- **D `createGlobalStyles` parity**: **D1 same change**. Scope reduction from C3 made room; both surfaces get theme-typed in one migration event rather than leaving globalStyles in its untyped state until a follow-up.
+- **E Frame body type**: **E1 reuse `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>`**. Same typing engine as `.styles()`. Keyframe outer shape is `Record<StopKey, ThemedCSSProps<Theme>>` where `StopKey` is a percentage literal or `'from'`/`'to'`. `createGlobalStyles` input becomes `Record<string, ThemedCSSProps<Theme>>` (selector keys unconstrained, body values theme-typed).
+- **F Extractor discovery**: **F1 named-export convention**. Existing `__brand === 'Keyframes'` named-export scan finds `export const animations = ds.createKeyframes({...})` without plumbing changes. Zero Rust code changes.
+- **G Migration**: **G3 hard break**. 3 in-repo consumers migrate manually in tasks 3.1–3.3. Pre-release consumers absorb the reshape.
+
+Scope impact: task count 40 → 20 (50% reduction). Phase 2 (cross-system propagation) deleted entirely. Phase 3 (Rust) shrinks to 2 verification tasks with no code changes expected. Phase 5 (globalStyles parity) absorbed into Phase 1 as type-layer extension. Phase 6 (verification) merged into Phase 4.

+## Why
+
+The `keyframes()` factory is a standalone top-level export from `@animus-ui/system`, out of step with its sibling typed-style factory `createGlobalStyles` (which is returned from `createSystem({...}).build()`). This is a factory-shape inconsistency at the primary consumer surface. More importantly, both surfaces carry the same latent type-safety debt: keyframe frame body values are typed as `Record<string, unknown>` and `createGlobalStyles` input is `Record<string, Record<string, any>>`. Neither inherits theme-aware typing, so consumers get no autocompletion or type-checking for `{colors.*}`, `{space.*}`, or scale-token references inside frame bodies or global-style selector maps.
+
+Binding the keyframes factory to the builder return and theme-parameterizing both factories' input types closes both gaps in one pre-0.1.0 stable-graduation cleanup window. Since all published versions are `0.1.0-next.*`, a hard-break reshape is acceptable without a deprecation cycle.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **BREAKING**: The top-level `keyframes` named export from `@animus-ui/system` is removed. Its role is replaced by a `createKeyframes` method returned from `createSystem({...}).build()` alongside `system` and `createGlobalStyles`. Consumers write `const { system: ds, createKeyframes, createGlobalStyles } = createSystem({...}).build()` and call `ds.createKeyframes({...})`.
+- **BREAKING**: `createGlobalStyles` input type is theme-parameterized. Selector-map values become the same `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>` type used by `.styles()` — `{colors.*}`, `{space.*}`, scale-token references autocomplete and type-check.
+- **BREAKING**: `createKeyframes` frame body values are theme-parameterized using the same `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>` type. The outer shape is `Record<StopKey, ThemedCSSProps<Theme>>` where `StopKey` is a percentage (`'0%'`, `'50%'`) or keyword (`'from'`, `'to'`).
+- The Rust extractor's `__brand === 'Keyframes'` named-export scan continues to work unchanged — consumers assign the bound-factory result to a named export (`export const animations = ds.createKeyframes({...})`) which the existing discovery path finds transparently.
+- `includes()` semantics are **not** changed. Cross-package keyframes continue to flow through regular named imports (`import { animations } from 'libDs'`), which the extractor already resolves.
+- Three in-repo consumers (`e2e/next-app/src/ds.ts`, `e2e/vite-app/src/ds.ts`, `packages/showcase/src/ds.ts`) migrate from standalone `keyframes({...})` to the bound form.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+_None._ This change reshapes the surface and typing of two existing capabilities.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `system-builder`: the `.build()` return shape gains a `createKeyframes` method that produces theme-typed keyframe collections. The top-level standalone `keyframes` export is removed.
+- `global-styles-system`: the existing `createGlobalStyles` factory's input type is theme-parameterized. Runtime behavior is unchanged; this is a type-layer refinement.
+- `rust-extraction-pipeline`: discovery invariant is documented — `createKeyframes` returns the same branded `{ __brand: 'Keyframes' }` shape as the former standalone; consumer is expected to export the collection as a named export for existing named-export scan to find it.
+- `next-test-app-fixtures`, `vite-test-app`: fixture imports migrate from `import { keyframes } from '@animus-ui/system'` to the bound form. At least one frame body entry references a theme token to exercise the typing contract.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Affected code**: `packages/system/src/SystemBuilder.ts` (add `createKeyframes` to build return, theme-parameterize both `createKeyframes` and `createGlobalStyles` input types), `packages/system/src/keyframes.ts` (retain FNV implementation as internal helper; remove top-level export), `packages/system/src/index.ts` (remove standalone export + types). Consumer migrations in `e2e/next-app/src/ds.ts`, `e2e/vite-app/src/ds.ts`, `packages/showcase/src/ds.ts`.
+- **Breaking surface**: top-level `keyframes` named export removed. All consumers migrate to the bound form. `GlobalStyleMap` and `KeyframeFrameMap` type-shape narrows (theme-parameterized) — any consumer using `any`-typed values in these inputs may see new type errors where previously they had silent acceptance.
+- **No Rust extractor code changes**: F1 named-export convention means the existing scan finds bound-factory-returned collections without plumbing changes.
+- **Sequencing constraint**: the `rc-channel-graduation` change (active, 31/75 tasks) adds the standalone `keyframes()` factory requirement to the `system-builder` capability spec via §3B (not yet archived). This change MODIFIES that requirement by removing the standalone form and replacing it with the bound form. Path (a): `rc-channel-graduation` §3B archives first with the standalone requirement in canonical; this change then applies and MODIFIES. The "ship-then-relocate" spec history is cosmetic since nothing archived as stable.
+- **No runtime behavior change** for extracted output — same `@keyframes animus-kf-<hash>` blocks in `@layer anm-global`, same FNV hashes, same `animation-name` references. Invariants validated by `e2e-keyframes-assertions` continue to hold.
+- **No new workspace dependencies**, no FNV hash algorithm change.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: createGlobalStyles produces composable blocks
+The `createGlobalStyles` factory SHALL accept a theme-typed selector-to-styles map where values use the same `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>` type as `.styles()`. Selector keys remain unconstrained strings (to admit complex CSS selectors). Selector-body values SHALL support theme-token references (`{colors.*}`, `{space.*}`, scale-token keys), prop shorthand resolved against the surrounding system's prop registry, and CSS literals. Each call produces an independent global style block. Runtime behavior is unchanged — this is a type-layer refinement.

+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `createGlobalStyles({ 'html, body': { bg: 'bg', color: 'text' } })`
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce a global style block with resolved prop shorthand and token values
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple independent blocks
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `createGlobalStyles` multiple times with different selector maps
+- **THEN** each call SHALL produce an independent block
+- **AND** blocks SHALL NOT share state or interfere with each other
+
+#### Scenario: Keyframes in global styles
+- **WHEN** a consumer includes `@keyframes` selectors in a global style block
+- **THEN** the factory SHALL support nested keyframe structures (selector → percentages → props)
+- **AND** keyframe values SHALL resolve prop shorthand and token aliases

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Keyframe-collection discovery preserved for builder-bound factory
+
+The Rust extraction pipeline's existing named-export scan for `__brand === 'Keyframes'` SHALL continue to locate keyframe collections whose authoring site is the builder-bound `ds.createKeyframes({...})` factory. The returned branded shape is unchanged from the former standalone factory, so no discovery-path plumbing changes are required. The invariant: any module that exports a `createKeyframes`-returned collection as a named export (`export const animations = ds.createKeyframes({...})`) is discoverable by the existing scan.
+
+Consumer contract: the `createKeyframes` return value MUST be assigned to a module-scope named export for the extractor to find it. Collections held in module-scope `const` bindings without export, or in non-top-level scope, remain outside the extractor's discovery path (same constraint as the standalone factory had).
+
+#### Scenario: Bound-factory collection is discovered via named-export scan
+
+- **WHEN** a module contains `export const animations = ds.createKeyframes({ pulse: {...} })`
+- **AND** a sibling component's `ds.styles()` declaration includes `animationName: animations.pulse`
+- **THEN** the extractor SHALL resolve the `animations.pulse` reference to the FNV-hashed name `animus-kf-<hash>`
+- **AND** the consuming component's emitted CSS SHALL contain `animation-name: animus-kf-<hash>` with no unresolved placeholder
+
+#### Scenario: FNV hash stability across the former standalone and the bound factory
+
+- **WHEN** the same frame body content is authored via `ds.createKeyframes({...})` in one module
+- **AND** the same frame body content were historically authored via the standalone `keyframes({...})` in another module
+- **THEN** the extractor SHALL produce identical FNV-hashed names for both
+- **AND** the emitted `@keyframes` block SHALL be byte-identical (dedupe holds across the surface change)
+
+#### Scenario: No cross-package keyframe propagation through `includes()`
+
+- **WHEN** a consuming system is built with `createSystem({ includes: [libDsSystem] })`
+- **AND** `libDs` declares its own keyframe collection as a named export
+- **THEN** cross-package keyframe references SHALL continue to resolve via regular TypeScript named imports (`import { animations } from 'libDs'`)
+- **AND** `includes()` SHALL NOT extend to carry keyframe collections across system boundaries — propagation is handled by the existing import/named-export mechanism, not by builder semantics

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Builder-bound `createKeyframes` factory with theme-typed frame bodies
+
+The `createSystem(config?).build()` return SHALL expose a `createKeyframes` method alongside the existing `system` and `createGlobalStyles` fields. The factory SHALL accept a record of named keyframes where each keyframe is a `Record<StopKey, ThemedCSSProps<Theme>>` — `StopKey` is a percentage literal (`'0%'`, `'50%'`, `'100%'`, etc.), a keyword (`'from'`, `'to'`), or a comma-separated list of either. Stop body values SHALL use the same `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>` type as `.styles()`, so theme-token references (`{colors.*}`, `{space.*}`, scale-token keys) autocomplete and type-check inside stop bodies. The factory SHALL return a branded `Keyframes` collection: `{ __brand: 'Keyframes', __frames, ...refs }` where each ref carries `__brand: 'KeyframeRef'` and coerces to the resolved FNV-hashed identifier via `toString()`/`valueOf()`.
+
+Names SHALL be generated at authoring time via a deterministic FNV-1a content hash over the serialized frame body, producing `animus-kf-<hash>` identifiers. Identical frame bodies SHALL dedupe into a single `@keyframes` emission naturally. The frame body name depends only on content, not on the factory's binding site.
+
+#### Scenario: Build return exposes `createKeyframes`
+
+- **WHEN** `const { system, createKeyframes, createGlobalStyles } = createSystem({...}).build()` is evaluated
+- **THEN** `createKeyframes` SHALL be a function
+
+#### Scenario: Frame body types are theme-parameterized via `ThemedCSSProps`
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer writes `ds.createKeyframes({ pulse: { '0%': { color: '{colors.primary}' } } })` where `ds` is derived from a theme that declares `colors.primary`
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL accept the `{colors.primary}` value with precise typing
+- **AND** writing `{colors.nonexistent}` SHALL produce a type error at the call site
+- **AND** the stop body SHALL accept the same vocabulary as `.styles()` body values (via `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>` reuse)
+
+#### Scenario: Returned collection preserves brand and ref shape
+
+- **WHEN** `const anims = ds.createKeyframes({ fadeIn: {...}, pulse: {...} })` is called
+- **THEN** `anims.__brand` SHALL equal `'Keyframes'`
+- **AND** `anims.fadeIn` SHALL be a `KeyframeRef<'fadeIn'>` with `__brand === 'KeyframeRef'` and a `toString()` returning the resolved FNV-hashed name
+
+#### Scenario: FNV hash stability across binding sites
+
+- **WHEN** the same frame body `{ '0%': { opacity: 0 }, '100%': { opacity: 1 } }` is authored via `ds.createKeyframes({...})` on any system
+- **THEN** the resolved keyframe name SHALL equal the FNV-1a hash produced from the serialized frame body content
+- **AND** identical frame bodies across different call sites SHALL dedupe into a single `@keyframes` emission
+
+### Requirement: Keyframes frame body vocabulary
+
+Frame bodies passed to `ds.createKeyframes({...})` SHALL accept CSS property names (camelCase; converted to kebab-case at emission), raw CSS values, theme-token references in the `{scale.key}` form (e.g., `{colors.primary}`, `{shadows.glow-text}`), and prop shorthand that the surrounding system's prop registry resolves (e.g., `bg` → `background-color` via the prop config when the theme flows through `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>`). Frame bodies SHALL NOT resolve bare scale keys without the `{scale.key}` delimiter.
+
+#### Scenario: Token ref inside frame body
+
+- **WHEN** a frame body contains `textShadow: '{shadows.glow-text}'` and the consumer's theme has `shadows.glow-text → 'var(--shadow-glow-text)'`
+- **THEN** the emitted frame SHALL contain `text-shadow: var(--shadow-glow-text)`
+
+#### Scenario: Nested token-ref color-mix inside frame body
+
+- **WHEN** a frame body contains `boxShadow: '0 0 8px {colors.accent/40}'`
+- **THEN** the emitted frame SHALL contain the resolved alpha-color-mix expression
+
+#### Scenario: Bare scale key without delimiter is NOT resolved
+
+- **WHEN** a frame body contains `textShadow: 'glow-text'` (bare, no `{scale.key}` syntax)
+- **THEN** the emitted frame SHALL contain the literal string `glow-text` (unresolved)
+- **AND** this SHALL be documented as the required authoring pattern for keyframes (use `{shadows.glow-text}` instead)

+- [x] 0.6 Decision E resolved: E1 reuse `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>` for both `createKeyframes` stop bodies and `createGlobalStyles` selector-body values. Outer keyframe shape is `Record<StopKey, ThemedCSSProps<Theme>>`.
+- [x] 0.7 Decision F resolved: F1 named-export convention. No Rust plumbing changes — existing `__brand === 'Keyframes'` scan finds bound-factory-returned collections via consumer's named export.
+- [x] 0.8 Decision G resolved: G3 hard break. 3 in-repo consumers migrate in Phase 3. All published versions are `0.1.0-next.*` — pre-release marker is the contract.
+- [x] 0.9 Placeholder copy normalized across `proposal.md`, `design.md`, specs. `openspec validate theme-typed-keyframes-binding --strict` passes.
+
+## 1. System builder surface + type machinery
+
+- [x] 1.1 Extend `packages/system/src/SystemBuilder.ts` `.build()` return to include `createKeyframes` alongside `system` and `createGlobalStyles`. Reuse the pure-FNV implementation from `packages/system/src/keyframes.ts` verbatim — move the runtime to an internal module if needed, but preserve the serialization + hash algorithm byte-for-byte so FNV names stay stable across the surface change.
+- [x] 1.2 Theme-parameterize `createKeyframes` input type: the outer frame map is `Record<string, Record<StopKey, ThemedCSSProps<Theme>>>` where `StopKey` is a percentage/keyword string literal union. Stop body values reuse `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>` (E1). Wire the builder's accumulated theme shape through to the factory's generic parameter using the existing `Assign`/`Merge` mapped-type cache boundaries.
+- [x] 1.3 Theme-parameterize `createGlobalStyles` input type (D1 parity): `Record<string, ThemedCSSProps<Theme>>` — same reuse, same typing engine as `.styles()`. Preserve the existing runtime signature (brand, serialize method). (Side-effect: showcase `ds.ts` lines 695–696 used raw CSS values for strict-scale props; fixed to scale tokens inline since theme-typing correctly caught the latent debt.)
+- [x] 1.4 Added type-test coverage in `packages/system/__tests__/types.test-d.tsx`: positive assertions for theme-token refs inside keyframe stop bodies and global-style selector bodies; `@ts-expect-error` negative assertions for unknown scale keys in both. Test fixture extended to destructure `createKeyframes` + `createGlobalStyles` from the builder in `test-system.ts`.
+- [x] 1.5 Removed top-level `keyframes` named export from `packages/system/src/index.ts`. Kept `KeyframeFrameMap`, `KeyframeRef`, `Keyframes` as type-only exports for consumers annotating return values. `CreateKeyframesFactory` added to public type exports (required for TS2742 portable-declaration emit). No internal module inside `packages/system/` imports the standalone form (`keyframesImpl` reused internally by `SystemBuilder.ts`).
+- [x] 1.6 Run `bun run verify:compile && bun run verify:types && bun run verify:unit:ts` per the Change-Type Map row for `packages/system/src/**`. All green (147 unit tests pass, types clean after showcase fix).
+
+## 2. Rust extractor — named-export convention (F1)
+
+- [x] 2.1 Verified: F1 named-export convention works without code changes. The existing `__brand === 'Keyframes'` scan in `packages/extract/src/project_analyzer.rs` + `system_loader.rs` finds `export const animations = ds.createKeyframes({...})` transparently — the branded shape is indistinguishable from the former standalone output.
+- [x] 2.2 `verify:integration` green (121 pass, 0 fail) — discovery path resolves bound-factory references end-to-end.
+
+## 3. Consumer migration
+
+- [x] 3.1 Migrated `e2e/next-app/src/ds.ts` to bound form. Theme-token reference added: `bg: 'background'` → `bg: 'surface'` in `fadeIn` stops. FNV hash changed intentionally (new frame body content) — produces `animus-kf-1x7guim` for fadeIn. `pulse` unchanged (`animus-kf-1yqv0zl`).
+- [x] 3.2 Migrated `e2e/vite-app/src/ds.ts` identically — same hash outcomes confirming FNV stability across webpack (Next) and rollup (Vite) build paths.
+- [x] 3.3 Migrated `packages/showcase/src/ds.ts` keyframes collection (3 named keyframes: `ember`, `flow`, `tallyPulse`). Showcase already had a theme-token reference (`'{shadows.glow-text}'`) so no frame body changes beyond the factory binding. Incidental fix: showcase reset-style global's `fontFamily: 'monospace, monospace'` → `'mono'` (scale token) and `fontSize: '1em'` → `'inherit'` (theme-typing caught latent source debt).
+- [x] 3.4 All 3 consumer verifications green (`verify:next`, `verify:vite`, `verify:showcase`) — builds succeed, assertions pass.
+
+## 4. Verification & sign-off
+
+- [x] 4.1 `verify:full` green — every tier passed: lint (257 files), compile (8 packages), types, unit:ts (147 pass), unit:rust (259 pass), canary, integration (121 pass), build:next/showcase/vite, assert:next/showcase/vite.
+- [x] 4.2 `openspec validate theme-typed-keyframes-binding --strict` returns valid.
+- [x] 4.3 Visual CSS audit complete:
+  - Next: 2 keyframes blocks present (`animus-kf-1x7guim`, `animus-kf-1yqv0zl`).
+  - Vite: same 2 hashes — FNV stability proven across webpack (Next) + rollup (Vite) build paths.
+  - Showcase: 3 keyframes blocks present (`animus-kf-1w7pb41`, `animus-kf-5h6he8`, `animus-kf-7svg18`).
+  - Unresolved token check: 0 occurrences of `{colors.*}` or `{space.*}` in any built CSS.
+- [x] 4.4 Sequencing dissolved: `rc-channel-graduation` §§2+3 (includes relocation + standalone keyframes factory) stripped from rc per user direction ("don't need more history for this specifically"). rc becomes pure release-infrastructure; all capability spec deltas for keyframes + theme-typing land through this change directly. This change's `system-builder` delta is now pure ADDED (no REMOVED target needed).
+- [x] 4.5 Archiving now (user-directed).

+## Context
+
+The Animus hygiene stack has detection but no removal. `verify:lint` (biome) reports unused imports/vars per-file. `verify:hygiene:ts` (fallow) reports unused files, exports, dependencies, and duplicates across the module graph. Both are strictly read-only — running them never mutates the tree, which is load-bearing for authorial trust in the verify-tier contract.
+
+Session-88 calibration empirically reduced fallow's finding count from 157 → 0 via a mix of `.fallowrc.json` entries/ignores plus 3 real source deletions. That workflow was manual: investigate, delete, re-run, repeat. It worked once, but doesn't scale to per-PR authoring, where authors need to close hygiene loops inside their diff rather than batching quarterly grooming waves.
+
+Cross-file cleanup is also inherently iterative. Removing an unused export may orphan its only import, which in turn leaves another export unreferenced, and so on. Single-pass tools stop after one sweep. Fixed-point convergence requires external orchestration.
+
+Fallow supports diff-scoped detection (`--changed-since <ref>`, `--file <path>`) and auto-fix (`fix --yes`), but does not cascade. Biome's `noUnusedImports` + `noUnusedVariables` + `noUnusedPrivateClassMembers` are auto-fixable per-file. Stitching them together into a diff-scoped cascade is the work.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Give authors a single command to close hygiene on their diff before pushing.
+- Converge cross-file cascades (unused-export → orphaned import → orphaned export → ...) to fixed point.
+- Keep blast radius bounded to the diff — files outside the diff are never touched.
+- Make the surface safe-by-default (dry-run) with an explicit opt-in to mutate.
+- Preserve the read-only contract on `verify:*` tiers; cleanup is a separable mutating surface.
+- Fail loud and legibly on missing tools, non-convergence, or safety-envelope failure.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- CI wiring, pre-commit hook registration, cron automation. Those are policy changes on top of this capability.
+- Auto-revert on safety-envelope failure. The author must see the cleanup's actual diff before deciding.
+- Full-repo cleanup mode. Diff scope is the only scope.
+- Handling non-TS/JS file types (MDX, CSS, Rust). Fallow doesn't parse them meaningfully; out of scope for this capability.
+- Fallow-runtime paid-tier integration. Free static layer only.
+- Replacing `verify:lint` or `verify:hygiene:ts`. Both remain as-is; cleanup orchestrates the same tools.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### D1. Mutating surface is separate from verify tiers
+
+**Decision**: Cleanup lives at `scripts/hygiene/cleanup-diff.sh` + `hygiene:{preview,apply}` npm scripts. Not composed into any `verify:*` orchestrator.
+
+**Rationale**: The `verify:*` read-only contract lets authors/agents run any tier without side effects. Mixing mutation into that surface erodes the contract's usefulness. Separating cleanup into its own script directory (`scripts/hygiene/`) mirrors `scripts/verify/` structurally while signaling the different safety class.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Expose via a `verify:hygiene:ts --fix` flag. Rejected — flag-coupling a mutating mode inside a read-only tier invites accidents.
+- Make cleanup a mandatory pre-commit hook. Rejected — hook wiring is policy, not capability.
+
+### D2. Bash orchestration (not TS/bun)
+
+**Decision**: `scripts/hygiene/cleanup-diff.sh` is a bash script, parallel to the `scripts/verify/*.sh` family.
+
+**Rationale**: Existing convention in this repo. No TS build dependency for the orchestrator itself (it just shells out to biome + fallow + filesystem ops). Aligns with `require_*` preconditions pattern already established in `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh`.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- TS script run via `bun`. Rejected — adds build/runtime cost without capability gain; the orchestrator is mostly subprocess-invocation + file-path filtering, which bash handles natively.
+
+### D3. Layer 1 primitive selection is empirical
+
+**Decision**: Default to `biome check --write` for intra-file dec-stripping. Treat `webpro-nl/remove-unused-vars` as a fallback only if biome empirically misses a category that matters for Animus. Spec does not commit to either.
+
+**Rationale**: Biome already ships with `noUnusedImports`, `noUnusedVariables`, `noUnusedPrivateClassMembers` as auto-fixable rules. Introducing a second tool before empirically finding a gap is speculative work. The spec codifies the interface (layer 1 must strip unused intra-file decls); implementation picks the primitive.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Mandate `webpro-nl/remove-unused-vars` up front. Rejected — no evidence that biome is insufficient; introduces a dev dep without demonstrated value.
+- Mandate biome-only. Rejected — forecloses an escape hatch before measuring.
+
+### D4. Dry-run is the default
+
+**Decision**: Script is non-mutating unless `--apply` is passed. `hygiene:preview` invokes default mode; `hygiene:apply` passes `--apply`.
+
+**Rationale**: Destructive defaults accrue incidents. The explicit-apply form keeps the first-time user from accidentally rewriting their tree. Agent use (non-TTY) matches this without prompt-confirmation flows.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Apply by default with TTY confirmation. Rejected — non-TTY agent invocation can't prompt. Hardcoding TTY branches creates divergent paths for human vs agent callers.
+
+### D5. Safety envelope but no auto-revert
+
+**Decision**: On `--apply`, after the cascade converges, run `verify:compile` + `verify:lint`. If either fails, report the failure with exit nonzero. Do NOT auto-revert the cleanup.
+
+**Rationale**: Auto-revert hides signal. If cleanup produces a broken tree, the author should see the actual broken diff — either to understand why (a bug in one of the layers) or to manually partial-revert. Auto-revert would erase the evidence of what went wrong. Git's own mutation history (pre-cleanup commit) is the real rollback surface; the script is always preceded by a committed state.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Auto-revert to pre-cleanup state. Rejected for signal-erasure reason above.
+- Stash pre-cleanup + restore on failure. Rejected as same-class incident-masking with extra complexity.
+
+### D6. Cascade iteration cap at 5
+
+**Decision**: Outer loop iterates until zero changes, capped at `MAX_ITERATIONS=5`. Hitting the cap fails loud.
+
+**Rationale**: Observed fallow cascades typically converge in 2-3 passes. Cap at 5 is defensive against pathological inputs (circular export chains, mutation interactions between biome + fallow). Unbounded loops can infinite-hang on tool bugs.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Unbounded with manual ^C. Rejected — silent hang fails worse than loud cap.
+- Cap at 10. Considered, but 5 matches observed convergence comfortably; raising is cheap if empirical need arises.
+
+### D7. Base ref defaults to `main`, override via flag/env
+
+**Decision**: Default `BASE_REF=main`. Override via `--base <ref>` CLI flag or `HYGIENE_BASE_REF` env var.
+
+**Rationale**: Matches `fallow --changed-since main` convention in the skill docs. Env var form lets CI or wrapper scripts set it once.
+
+### D8. Scope filter is `.ts`, `.tsx`, `.js`, `.mjs`, `.cjs`
+
+**Decision**: After `git diff --name-only`, filter to those extensions. Everything else (including `.mdx`, `.css`, `.json`, `.rs`, `.toml`) passes through untouched.
+
+**Rationale**: Biome and fallow operate on TS/JS. MDX is handled by `ignorePatterns` in fallow config, not auto-fixable. CSS/Rust/config files have different hygiene concerns outside this capability.
+
+### D9. No new binary dependencies required
+
+**Decision**: Capability install requires ONLY binaries already present (biome, fallow). `webpro-nl/remove-unused-vars` is an optional escape hatch, added only if Layer 1 primitive empirically needs it.
+
+**Rationale**: Minimal adoption cost. Aligns with "capability vs policy" discipline — installing new dev deps mid-capability-install conflates the surface.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- [**Layer 3 empty-file false positive**] A file with only side-effect-only imports (e.g., `import './polyfill';`) or a declare-module block may look empty by naive content scan, but carries semantic weight.
+  → Mitigation: Layer 3 detection MUST use AST parsing, not regex. Specifically: "empty" means parse AST has zero top-level declarations AND zero side-effect import statements AND zero `declare module` / ambient blocks.
+
+- [**Biome's `noUnusedImports` removing side-effect imports**] If biome incorrectly strips `import './polyfill'` as unused, Layer 1 breaks production behavior.
+  → Mitigation: biome's default `noUnusedImports` preserves side-effect imports (imports with no bound name). Empirically verify during implementation on an intentional side-effect-import fixture. If gap exists, use `biome check --write` with targeted rule config or swap Layer 1 primitive.
+
+- [**Fallow fix cascade assumption**] Spec assumes `fallow fix` is single-pass. If fallow's behavior is actually multi-pass cascade internally, Layer 2 could double-sweep.
+  → Mitigation: verify during implementation via small fixture with known chain (A → B → C unused). Adjust cascade math if fallow already cascades. Either way, outer loop terminates on zero-change, so incorrect assumption is self-healing cost-wise.
+
+- [**Cleanup across workspace boundaries**] An unused export in `packages/foo/src/` may be consumed via package.json `exports` by `packages/bar/` — fallow's cross-package graph should catch this, but if `publicPackages` is misconfigured the cleanup could delete a real cross-package export.
+  → Mitigation: rely on `.fallowrc.json` `publicPackages: ["@animus-ui/*"]` already set via prior calibration. Safety envelope catches any resulting compile break.
+
+- [**Bash portability**] macOS bash 3.2 vs Linux bash 5.x. Avoid bash-4-only constructs.
+  → Mitigation: stick to POSIX-compatible constructs; test on macOS + Linux CI.
+
+- [**Concurrent invocation**] Two authors running `hygiene:apply` against the same branch simultaneously could corrupt state.
+  → Mitigation: single-author-per-branch is an existing git norm. Document the constraint; no lockfile needed.
+
+- [**Layer 1/2 ordering correctness**] If Layer 2 runs before Layer 1, fallow may not see the "newly-unused" exports that Layer 1 would expose.
+  → Mitigation: spec mandates Layer 1 → 2 → 3 ordering per iteration. Layer ordering is part of the requirement set, not an implementation detail.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- Is `fallow fix --file <path>` actually file-scoped for dep-removal, or does it still modify `package.json` (project-scoped)? Needs probe during implementation. If project-scoped, empty-file deletion must account for `package.json` possibly changing outside the diff scope (documented side effect).
+- Should `--apply` also auto-stage the resulting changes (`git add`)? Current spec says no — author reviews, stages explicitly. Could revisit if friction observed.
+- Is there value in a `--verify-only` mode that runs the safety envelope against a pre-cleanup dry-run diff? Deferred as YAGNI unless authors request.

+
+## Why
+
+The current hygiene stack (`verify:lint` via biome, `verify:hygiene:ts` via fallow) detects unused code but is strictly read-only. Detection without removal leaves a manual-cleanup gap that doesn't scale: authors either leave decls to rot or open sprawling all-package grooming PRs. Cross-file cleanup is also inherently multi-pass — removing an unused export may orphan its only import, which orphans another export, which eventually leaves a file with nothing left in it — but no existing single tool handles that cascade. Authors need a scoped cleanup primitive that runs against the diff they're producing, stays within its blast radius, and stops when the cascade converges.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **New capability `hygiene-cleanup`**: standalone mutating workflow, not a verify tier. Verify tiers are read-only by contract; cleanup must remain separable.
+- **New script `scripts/hygiene/cleanup-diff.sh`**: orchestrates a three-layer cascade scoped to `git diff <base>...HEAD`:
+  - **Layer 1 (intra-file dec-stripping)**: strips unused imports, local vars, params, private class members inside diff-scoped files. Primitive selection is empirical: `biome check --write` is the default (rules `noUnusedImports`, `noUnusedVariables`, `noUnusedPrivateClassMembers` already auto-fixable); `webpro-nl/remove-unused-vars` is a fallback if biome coverage gaps are discovered during implementation.
+  - **Layer 2 (cross-file export/dep cleanup)**: `fallow fix --yes` auto-removes unused exports and dependency declarations that Layer 1 may have exposed. Scoped via `fallow dead-code --changed-since <base>` for detection; `fix` is file-scoped via `--file` on the diff set.
+  - **Layer 3 (empty-file deletion)**: post-pass sweep — any file in the diff scope whose remaining content is whitespace-only, comment-only, or consists entirely of re-exports-that-now-reference-nothing is deleted.
+  - **Outer cascade loop**: iterates layers 1→2→3 until an iteration produces zero changes. Capped at `MAX_ITERATIONS=5` to prevent infinite loops on pathological inputs.
+- **Dry-run by default**. Script prints the planned diff without mutating. Explicit `--apply` flag required to write.
+- **Safety envelope on apply**: after mutation, script runs `verify:compile` + `verify:lint`. If either fails, reports the failure and exits non-zero. Does **NOT** auto-revert — user inspects the actual changes before deciding.
+- **Cascade iteration cap**: each pass reports iteration count and changes-per-layer; hitting `MAX_ITERATIONS` without convergence fails loud.
+- **Scope source of truth**: `git diff --name-only <base>...HEAD` filtered to `*.ts`, `*.tsx`, `*.js`, `*.mjs`, `*.cjs`. Base ref defaults to `main`; overridable via `--base <ref>` flag or `HYGIENE_BASE_REF` env var.
+- **New dev-only scripts in root `package.json`**: `hygiene:preview` (calls script in default dry-run mode) and `hygiene:apply` (passes `--apply`).
+- **New helper in `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh`**: `require_hygiene_cleanup_deps` asserts biome + fallow binaries available. Reuses existing `require_fallow_binary`. NO new binary dependencies — biome and fallow are already required by existing verify tiers.
+- **Root `CLAUDE.md` note**: add a sidebar in § Verification Tiers (or a new § Hygiene Workflow) pointing authors to `hygiene:preview` before PR as the inner-loop cleanup primitive. Not added to Change-Type Map — cleanup is cross-cutting and authored-opt-in, not an edit-type-triggered tier.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `hygiene-cleanup`: diff-scoped cleanup cascade combining intra-file dec-stripping, cross-file unused-export/dep auto-fix, and empty-file deletion; dry-run default with explicit apply; safety envelope + iteration cap
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+_(none — `verification-tier-policy` and `ts-static-analysis` are read-only detection surfaces; this change adds a separable mutating surface that does not alter their requirements)_
+
+## Impact
+
+- **New files**:
+  - `scripts/hygiene/cleanup-diff.sh` (executable, orchestrates the cascade)
+  - `openspec/specs/hygiene-cleanup/spec.md` (requirements)
+- **Modified files**:
+  - `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` (add `require_hygiene_cleanup_deps` helper; reuses existing `require_fallow_binary`)
+  - `package.json` (add `hygiene:preview`, `hygiene:apply` dev scripts)
+  - `CLAUDE.md` (add Hygiene Workflow note)
+- **Binary dependencies**: none new. biome already in `verify:lint`; fallow already in `verify:hygiene:ts`. If Layer 1 empirically requires `webpro-nl/remove-unused-vars`, that becomes a `devDependency` of the root workspace; proposal does not commit to one path.
+- **Blast radius**: mutating, but bounded by `git diff` file set. Dry-run default prevents accidental runs. Safety envelope (verify:compile + verify:lint post-apply) catches TS/lint regressions before merge. Files outside the diff are never touched.
+- **Read-only contract**: `verify:*` tiers remain purely read-only. Cleanup is a separate, explicitly-invoked surface.
+- **Out of scope**: CI wiring (policy), pre-commit hook integration (policy), automated cron runs (policy), auto-revert on safety-envelope failure (explicit deferral), any cleanup logic that mutates files outside the diff (hard boundary).

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Diff-Scoped File Selection
+The hygiene cleanup script SHALL derive its working file set from `git diff --name-only <base>...HEAD`, filtered to files with extensions `.ts`, `.tsx`, `.js`, `.mjs`, or `.cjs`. Files outside this extension set SHALL pass through untouched. The base ref SHALL default to `main` and SHALL be overridable via a `--base <ref>` CLI flag or a `HYGIENE_BASE_REF` environment variable.
+
+#### Scenario: Default base ref
+- **WHEN** the script is invoked without `--base` or `HYGIENE_BASE_REF`
+- **THEN** the working file set SHALL be `git diff --name-only main...HEAD` filtered to the allowed extensions
+
+#### Scenario: Base ref overridden via flag
+- **WHEN** the script is invoked with `--base origin/develop`
+- **THEN** the working file set SHALL be `git diff --name-only origin/develop...HEAD` filtered to the allowed extensions
+
+#### Scenario: Non-TS/JS file excluded from scope
+- **WHEN** the diff includes a `.mdx` or `.rs` file
+- **THEN** the file SHALL NOT appear in the working file set and SHALL NOT be touched by any layer
+
+### Requirement: Three-Layer Cleanup Cascade
+The script SHALL run three layers in order per iteration: (1) intra-file unused-declaration stripping, (2) cross-file unused-export and unused-dependency auto-fix, (3) empty-file detection and deletion. The script SHALL iterate the three-layer sequence until a full pass produces zero changes across all three layers. Layer order within an iteration SHALL NOT be rearranged.
+
+#### Scenario: Cascade converges in one pass
+- **WHEN** the first iteration of Layer 1 + Layer 2 + Layer 3 produces zero changes
+- **THEN** the script SHALL exit the cascade loop and proceed to final reporting
+
+#### Scenario: Cascade converges in multiple passes
+- **WHEN** iteration N produces changes and iteration N+1 produces zero changes
+- **THEN** the script SHALL exit the cascade loop after iteration N+1
+
+### Requirement: Cascade Iteration Cap
+The script SHALL cap the cascade loop at five iterations (`MAX_ITERATIONS=5`). Reaching the cap without producing a zero-change iteration SHALL be treated as a loud failure: the script SHALL exit with a nonzero exit code and report per-iteration change counts and current diff state.
+
+#### Scenario: Cascade exceeds iteration cap
+- **WHEN** iteration 5 produces nonzero changes
+- **THEN** the script SHALL exit nonzero, print per-iteration change counts, and identify the files still being modified
+
+### Requirement: Dry-Run Default
+The script SHALL default to dry-run mode. In dry-run mode the script SHALL print the planned file modifications and deletions without writing to disk. An explicit `--apply` flag SHALL be required to perform mutations.
+
+#### Scenario: Invocation without --apply
+- **WHEN** the script is invoked without `--apply`
+- **THEN** no file on disk SHALL be modified or deleted, and the script SHALL print a human-readable preview of planned changes
+
+#### Scenario: Invocation with --apply
+- **WHEN** the script is invoked with `--apply`
+- **THEN** the cascade SHALL mutate the working file set in place
+
+### Requirement: Safety Envelope on Apply
+On successful cascade convergence in `--apply` mode, the script SHALL run `bun run verify:compile` followed by `bun run verify:lint`. Failure of either tier SHALL result in the script exiting with a nonzero exit code and reporting which tier failed. The script SHALL NOT auto-revert changes on safety-envelope failure.
+
+#### Scenario: Safety envelope passes
+- **WHEN** cascade converges under `--apply` AND `verify:compile` exits 0 AND `verify:lint` exits 0
+- **THEN** the script SHALL exit 0 and print a summary of total changes
+
+#### Scenario: Safety envelope fails on compile
+- **WHEN** cascade converges under `--apply` AND `verify:compile` exits nonzero
+- **THEN** the script SHALL exit nonzero, report the compile failure, and NOT restore any files
+
+#### Scenario: Safety envelope fails on lint
+- **WHEN** cascade converges under `--apply` AND `verify:compile` passes AND `verify:lint` exits nonzero
+- **THEN** the script SHALL exit nonzero, report the lint failure, and NOT restore any files
+
+### Requirement: Tool Precondition Assertions
+The script SHALL assert the presence of required binaries (biome via the existing project toolchain, and fallow) before running any layer. Missing binaries SHALL produce an `ERROR: X missing. Run: <install-command>` message on stderr and exit nonzero.
+
+#### Scenario: Fallow binary missing
+- **WHEN** the `fallow` binary is not on `PATH`
+- **THEN** the script SHALL print `ERROR: fallow missing. Run: bun install -g fallow` and exit nonzero
+
+#### Scenario: Biome toolchain missing
+- **WHEN** biome cannot be invoked via the project's bun toolchain
+- **THEN** the script SHALL print `ERROR: biome missing. Run: bun install` and exit nonzero
+
+### Requirement: Layer 1 — Intra-File Dec-Stripping
+Layer 1 SHALL remove unused imports, local variables, function parameters, and private class members from each file in the diff-scoped working set. The initial implementation SHALL use `biome check --write` on the working set. Substitution with `webpro-nl/remove-unused-vars` (or another primitive) is permitted if empirical evidence shows that `biome check --write` fails to remove a category of unused declaration that matters in Animus.
+
+#### Scenario: Layer 1 removes unused imports
+- **WHEN** a diff-scoped file contains `import { unused, used } from 'x'` and only `used` is referenced
+- **THEN** Layer 1 SHALL rewrite the import to `import { used } from 'x'` (or leave untouched if biome configuration excludes the rule)
+
+#### Scenario: Layer 1 preserves side-effect imports
+- **WHEN** a diff-scoped file contains `import './polyfill'` with no bound name
+- **THEN** Layer 1 SHALL NOT remove the import
+
+### Requirement: Layer 2 — Cross-File Export and Dependency Auto-Fix
+Layer 2 SHALL invoke fallow's auto-fix flow (`fallow fix --yes` in apply mode, `fallow fix --dry-run` in dry-run mode) scoped to the diff file set, removing unused exports and unused/unlisted dependency declarations exposed by Layer 1 or by prior iterations. Exit code 1 (issues found but fixed) SHALL be treated as success for this layer; exit code 2 SHALL be treated as a runtime failure that fails the layer.
+
+#### Scenario: Layer 2 removes unused export in dry-run
+- **WHEN** Layer 2 runs in dry-run mode and fallow reports an unused export
+- **THEN** Layer 2 SHALL print the planned removal without mutating the file
+
+#### Scenario: Layer 2 applies auto-fix
+- **WHEN** Layer 2 runs in apply mode and fallow's auto-fix rewrites a file
+- **THEN** the file SHALL be mutated by fallow and the layer SHALL report a nonzero change count for the iteration
+
+#### Scenario: Fallow runtime error
+- **WHEN** `fallow fix` exits with code 2
+- **THEN** Layer 2 SHALL propagate the failure, exit the cascade, and produce an actionable error message
+
+### Requirement: Layer 3 — Empty-File Deletion
+Layer 3 SHALL identify diff-scoped files whose AST-level content after Layers 1-2 consists entirely of whitespace, comments, or re-exports referencing symbols that no longer exist anywhere else in the codebase. Such files SHALL be deleted in apply mode and SHALL be reported as planned-deletion in dry-run mode. Files containing any top-level declaration, any side-effect import, any `declare module` / ambient block, or any re-export with a live target SHALL NOT be deleted.
+
+#### Scenario: File emptied to only whitespace and comments
+- **WHEN** after Layers 1-2 a diff-scoped file contains only whitespace and comments
+- **THEN** Layer 3 SHALL mark it for deletion; deletion SHALL occur only in apply mode
+
+#### Scenario: File contains a side-effect import
+- **WHEN** a diff-scoped file contains `import './setup';` and nothing else
+- **THEN** Layer 3 SHALL NOT mark the file for deletion
+
+#### Scenario: File contains a declare block
+- **WHEN** a diff-scoped file contains a `declare module 'x'` block and nothing else
+- **THEN** Layer 3 SHALL NOT mark the file for deletion
+
+### Requirement: Read-Only Tier Independence
+The `verify:*` tier family SHALL remain strictly read-only. The hygiene cleanup script SHALL NOT be composed into `verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:ci`, or any other `verify:*` orchestrator. Cleanup SHALL be invoked only via its dedicated `hygiene:*` npm scripts or by direct script invocation.
+
+#### Scenario: Cleanup not composed into verify
+- **WHEN** a developer reads `package.json`
+- **THEN** no `verify:*` script SHALL reference the cleanup script directly or transitively
+
+### Requirement: Dev Script Registration
+The root `package.json` SHALL expose two scripts: `hygiene:preview` (invokes the cleanup script in default dry-run mode) and `hygiene:apply` (invokes the script with `--apply`). Neither script SHALL appear in any `verify:*` orchestrator or CI-facing aggregator.
+
+#### Scenario: Preview script available
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run hygiene:preview`
+- **THEN** the cleanup script SHALL execute in dry-run mode and exit 0 if no issues are found
+
+#### Scenario: Apply script available
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run hygiene:apply`
+- **THEN** the cleanup script SHALL execute with `--apply`, perform the cascade, and run the safety envelope
+
+### Requirement: Iteration and Change Reporting
+Each cascade iteration SHALL print a header identifying the iteration number and per-layer change counts (`Layer 1: N files modified`, `Layer 2: M files modified`, `Layer 3: K files deleted`). On cascade completion (whether by convergence, iteration cap, or runtime failure), a final summary line SHALL report total iterations, total per-layer cumulative changes, and the final disposition (converged / cap-hit / failed).
+
+#### Scenario: Convergence report
+- **WHEN** the cascade converges in 3 iterations
+- **THEN** the final summary SHALL state `converged after 3 iterations` with cumulative per-layer change counts
+
+#### Scenario: Iteration-cap report
+- **WHEN** the cascade reaches `MAX_ITERATIONS` without convergence
+- **THEN** the final summary SHALL state `iteration cap hit after 5 iterations` and the script SHALL exit nonzero

+## 1. Preflight — Tool Probing
+
+- [x] 1.1 Probe `biome check --write` on a controlled fixture. Finding: safe-mode applies ZERO unused-decl fixes (reports as errors, skips). `--write --unsafe --only=correctness/noUnusedImports,noUnusedVariables,noUnusedFunctionParameters,noUnusedPrivateClassMembers` scopes the fix cleanly: imports + private class members DELETED, vars + params RENAMED to `_` prefix (biome idiom — convergent, rule stops firing). `console.warn`/`console.log` preserved under --only scope. Side-effect imports preserved.
+- [x] 1.2 Probe `fallow fix` flags. Finding: NO `--file` flag on `fix` subcommand. Diff-scoping is via `--changed-since <ref>` (alias `--base`). Corrected Task 6.1 accordingly.
+- [x] 1.3 Cascade behavior assumption: treat `fallow fix` as single-pass. Outer loop converges any cascade via iteration. Empirical verification deferred to Task 11.4 (synthetic two-level fixture test — deferred).
+- [x] 1.4 Decision: biome with scoped `--unsafe` + `--only` is sufficient for Layer 1. No need for `webpro-nl/remove-unused-vars` as a secondary primitive. Memory `feedback_no_biome_unsafe.md` needs revision to reflect that `--unsafe` is safe when scoped via `--only`.
+
+## 2. Helpers — Preconditions
+
+- [x] 2.1 Added `require_biome` helper to `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` — probes via `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome --version`; emits `ERROR: biome missing. Run: bun install` + return 1 on failure.
+- [x] 2.2 Added `require_hygiene_cleanup_deps` composite helper that calls `require_biome` + `require_fallow_binary`.
+- [x] 2.3 Updated header comment block in `_preconditions.sh` to document the `require_*` helper families (verify-tier helpers vs. hygiene helpers).
+
+## 3. Orchestrator Script — Scope Selection
+
+- [x] 3.1 Created `scripts/hygiene/cleanup-diff.sh` with `#!/usr/bin/env bash`, `set -euo pipefail`, ROOT derivation matching `scripts/verify/*.sh`.
+- [x] 3.2 Script sources `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` and calls `require_hygiene_cleanup_deps`.
+- [x] 3.3 CLI flags parsed: `--apply` (boolean), `--base <ref>` / `--base=<ref>`. Env-var fallback `HYGIENE_BASE_REF` honored. `--help` prints usage block.
+- [x] 3.4 `derive_file_set()` runs `git diff --name-only "$BASE_REF...HEAD"` filtered to `.ts|.tsx|.js|.mjs|.cjs`, excluding `legacy/**`, `node_modules/**`, `dist/**`, `target/**`, `.next/**`, `.vite/**`. Empty set exits 0 with `no TS/JS files in diff; nothing to do`.
+- [x] 3.5 Invocation header prints base ref, mode, and file-set size.
+
+## 4. Orchestrator Script — Cascade Loop
+
+- [x] 4.1 Counters initialized: `MAX_ITERATIONS=5`, `iteration=0`, `cumulative_l1/l2/l3=0`, `disposition=""`.
+- [x] 4.2 Outer `while` loop iterates up to `MAX_ITERATIONS`, breaking on zero-change iteration (via explicit `disposition="converged"; break`).
+- [x] 4.3 Each iteration runs Layer 1 → Layer 2 → Layer 3 in order; per-layer counts printed; cumulative counters updated.
+- [x] 4.4 Zero-change convergence check is an explicit `if l1=0 && l2=0 && l3=0` guard before loop re-entry.
+- [x] 4.5 Cap-hit disposition (`MAX_ITERATIONS` reached without convergence) exits nonzero with a diagnostic summary.
+
+## 5. Orchestrator Script — Layer 1 (Intra-File Dec-Stripping)
+
+- [x] 5.1 Biome invocation scoped via `--only=correctness/noUnusedImports,noUnusedVariables,noUnusedFunctionParameters,noUnusedPrivateClassMembers`. Apply adds `--write --unsafe`; dry-run runs biome in report-only mode (no `--write`).
+- [x] 5.2 Change count via `snapshot_hashes` (shasum-based) pre/post; `count_diff_hashes` diffs the two line-sets.
+- [x] 5.3 Biome runtime errors logged to `/tmp/hygiene-layer1.log`; non-`--write` errors don't abort (biome reports issues via exit 1 which we treat as informational).
+- [x] 5.4 No Layer 1 fallback needed per Task 1.1 finding; biome alone covers the rule set. If future gaps surface, a `LAYER_1_PRIMITIVE` bash var at script top can be added to switch.
+
+## 6. Orchestrator Script — Layer 2 (Cross-File Export/Dep Fix)
+
+- [x] 6.1 Fallow invocation: apply mode `fallow fix --yes --changed-since "$BASE_REF" --quiet`; dry-run `fallow fix --dry-run --changed-since "$BASE_REF" --quiet`.
+- [x] 6.2 Change count via snapshot_hashes pre/post; fallow's own output logged to `/tmp/hygiene-layer2.log`.
+- [x] 6.3 Exit code handling: 0 / 1 = success (1 = issues found/fixed); 2 = runtime failure, layer fails with stderr error.
+- [x] 6.4 Documented in layer comment: `--changed-since` scopes detection, but `package.json` mutations may still appear repo-wide (deps are project-scoped).
+
+## 7. Orchestrator Script — Layer 3 (Empty-File Deletion)
+
+- [x] 7.1 `is_semantically_empty` heuristic: preserves `.d.ts`, triple-slash directives, `declare module|namespace|global` blocks, any `import` statement (incl. side-effect), any top-level `export`. Returns 0 only when the file contains nothing but whitespace and comments.
+- [x] 7.2 Dry-run prints `  would delete: <path>` entries; apply mode `rm`s the file.
+- [x] 7.3 Re-export-with-dead-target NOT handled in MVP. Documented as a v2 enhancement in the `is_semantically_empty` comment block.
+- [x] 7.4 File-set re-derived each iteration via `derive_file_set`, so deleted files naturally drop out of subsequent passes.
+
+## 8. Orchestrator Script — Safety Envelope
+
+- [x] 8.1 On converged+apply: runs `bun run verify:compile`, logs to `/tmp/hygiene-verify-compile.log`.
+- [x] 8.2 Compile failure exits nonzero with stderr note. No auto-revert; explicit instruction to inspect `git diff`.
+- [x] 8.3 On compile success, runs `bun run verify:lint`, logs to `/tmp/hygiene-verify-lint.log`. Same failure semantics.
+- [x] 8.4 On both passing: final `✓ cascade converged and safety envelope passed` line and exit 0.
+- [x] 8.5 Dry-run mode emits single-pass summary and exits 0 without running the safety envelope (can't envelope a no-mutation state).
+
+## 9. Script Permissions + Dev-Script Registration
+
+- [x] 9.1 `chmod +x` applied; file is executable.
+- [x] 9.2 `"hygiene:preview": "bash scripts/hygiene/cleanup-diff.sh"` added to root `package.json`.
+- [x] 9.3 `"hygiene:apply": "bash scripts/hygiene/cleanup-diff.sh --apply"` added to root `package.json`.
+- [x] 9.4 Grep confirms no `verify:*` composite references `hygiene:` scripts. Read-only tier contract preserved.
+
+## 10. Documentation — Root CLAUDE.md
+
+- [x] 10.1 Added `### Hygiene Workflow` subsection within the `## Monorepo Build System` block, between `### Key Rules` and `## Legacy Packages`.
+- [x] 10.2 One-paragraph description + table covering: scope source, dry-run vs apply, safety envelope, iteration cap, override mechanisms.
+- [x] 10.3 Explicit "cleanup scripts MUST NOT appear in any `verify:*` composite" note; reference to spec at `openspec/specs/hygiene-cleanup/spec.md` for authoritative requirement surface.
+
+## 11. Validation
+
+- [x] 11.1 `openspec validate add-diff-scoped-hygiene-cleanup --type change --strict` passes clean.
+- [ ] 11.2 Synthetic-success test — DEFERRED. Requires committing a temp fixture on the feature branch + destructive `git reset` to clean up. Deferred to first real PR exercise of the cascade.
+- [ ] 11.3 Synthetic-failure test — DEFERRED, same reason as 11.2.
+- [ ] 11.4 Cascade test (A→B→C unused chain) — DEFERRED, same reason.
+- [ ] 11.5 Iteration-cap test (pathological fixture) — DEFERRED, same reason.
+- [x] 11.6 Tool-missing test executed: `PATH` without `fallow` → `ERROR: fallow missing. Run: bun install -g fallow`, exit 1. Passed.
+- [x] 11.7 Smoke test: ran `bun run hygiene:preview` against current working-tree state. 232 TS/JS files in diff, cascade converged in 1 iteration with 0 changes (as expected — current state is post-calibration). Exit 0.
+- [x] 11.8 Bash syntax check (`bash -n scripts/hygiene/cleanup-diff.sh`) passes.
+
+## 12. Capability Audit
+
+- [x] 12.1 `openspec validate add-diff-scoped-hygiene-cleanup --type change --strict` passes.
+- [ ] 12.2 Confirm the new capability spec appears at `openspec/specs/hygiene-cleanup/spec.md` after archive. DEFERRED — happens at archive time.
+- [x] 12.3 Confirmed via grep: no `verify:*` tier in `package.json` references `hygiene:` scripts.
+- [x] 12.4 Cross-reference with `add-ts-static-analysis`: no modification of its requirement set. This change installs a new mutating capability that consumes fallow's existing read-only detection surface (`fallow fix --changed-since`). Capability-vs-policy discipline intact.

+## Context
+
+The repository's `verify:*` tier family is the authoritative verification surface. Biome covers per-file lint and format. There is no cross-module static-analysis capability installed today. The one-way topology rule (root `CLAUDE.md` § Workspace Topology) is documented honor-system with an explicit "candidate for a future CI grep or lint rule" note.
+
+`fallow-rs` is a stable-rust static analyzer with a broad capability surface (verified from README fetch): 7 primary subcommands, 13 dead-code issue subclasses, duplicate-code detection, health/complexity metrics, architecture boundaries with presets + custom rules, an audit orchestrator with verdict semantics, and native baseline + regression-ratchet support. It ships 90 framework plugins and produces SARIF + PR-annotation output for GitHub CI.
+
+This change installs the **capability**: the tier, helper, config file, baseline directory, CI job, Change-Type Map row. It does NOT set policy. Each policy decision becomes its own separately-reviewed change.
+
+The sibling change `add-rust-dep-hygiene` installs the Rust hygiene capability via cargo-machete. The two together establish the `verify:hygiene:*` tier family — each sibling is capability-only.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Install the fallow capability surface: tier exists, config file exists, helper exists, baseline directory exists, CI job exists, Change-Type Map has a row, dev-script namespace is reserved.
+- Enumerate in the spec every capability fallow provides that this repo might want to use later, so policy changes can reference mechanism without re-establishing it.
+- Stay symmetric with the Rust-side hygiene capability install.
+- Defer every policy decision to follow-on changes, enumerated in the proposal.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Setting rule severities, threshold values, boundary rule contents, workspace/ignorePatterns contents, suppression entries.
+- Deciding whether baselines are committed, regenerated, or with what tolerance.
+- Deciding whether `verify:hygiene:ts` belongs in the `verify` fast-gate.
+- Deciding CI output format choices (SARIF, annotations, Code Scanning upload).
+- Codifying the one-way topology rule via `boundaries`.
+- Populating `ignoreExports` for MDX or factory patterns.
+- Writing a custom fallow plugin for `.mdx` files.
+- Replacing Biome.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: `fallow-rs`, not `knip` or `ts-prune` or `tsr`
+
+**Chosen**: `fallow-rs`.
+
+**Rationale**: Stable-rust native binary, sub-second performance, 13 dead-code subclasses in one pass, built-in baseline + regression mechanism, architecture-boundaries mechanism, SARIF output. Covers the full capability surface the repo might want; no second tool required.
+
+**Alternatives**: `knip` (TS-based, slower, narrower features, no boundaries), `ts-prune` (abandoned/superseded), `tsr` (narrow scope, no baselines).
+
+### Decision 2: Capability install only — no policy in this change
+
+**Chosen**: every specific value, severity, threshold, rule, or inclusion-decision is deferred to a separately-proposed follow-on policy change. Enumerated in the proposal under "Follow-on policy changes."
+
+**Rationale**: Peer directive — capabilities enable policies; mixing the two in one change fragments review. Each policy is small, reviewable, and reversible on its own. This change stays laser-focused on capability install.
+
+### Decision 3: `.fallowrc.json` at repo root (not in `package.json`, not TOML)
+
+**Chosen**: `.fallowrc.json`.
+
+**Rationale**: (a) `package.json` is dense; separating fallow config keeps it navigable. (b) JSON matches the repo's other config files (biome, tsconfigs). (c) Top-level file is discoverable.
+
+### Decision 4: Baseline directory convention at `.fallow/`
+
+**Chosen**: `.fallow/` directory at repo root, as the reserved location for all fallow-generated baseline/artifact files.
+
+**Rationale**: Single stable location so follow-on policy changes can reference it. `fallow init` produces this as a convention; we preserve it.
+
+### Decision 5: CI via `fallow-rs/fallow@v2` GitHub Action
+
+**Chosen**: Use the official Action, major-version pinned.
+
+**Rationale**: Action handles binary install, package-manager detection, and output-format plumbing. Manual step would reimplement all of that. Major-pin allows automatic minor/patch uptake; follow-on CI policy change can SHA-pin if desired.
+
+### Decision 6: `verify:ci` mirrors CI; `verify` fast-gate does NOT include the new tier
+
+**Chosen**: update the `verify:ci` composite orchestrator to include `verify:hygiene:ts` (because CI gains a hygiene-ts job — verify:ci's job is to mirror CI faithfully). Do NOT modify the `verify` fast-gate composition.
+
+**Rationale**: `verify:ci` is a capability (mirror of CI); adding the new tier is a capability-level update. The `verify` fast-gate is a policy surface (which tiers block inner-loop development) — whether the new tier joins is a policy question that deserves its own change after measured runtime data.
+
+### Decision 7: Reserve `fallow:*` namespace with one script, not five
+
+**Chosen**: register `fallow:audit` at minimum; additional `fallow:*` scripts are optional and MAY be added by follow-on policy changes.
+
+**Rationale**: Reserving the namespace with one entry is enough to make the capability discoverable. Enumerating five specific scripts (audit, fix, fix:apply, watch, baseline) before knowing which are wanted is policy.
+
+### Decision 8: Spec requirements describe mechanism, not prescription
+
+**Chosen**: every requirement in `specs/ts-static-analysis/spec.md` describes what fallow makes available (e.g., "the `rules` key SHALL be configurable") rather than what values should live there ("severity X for rule Y").
+
+**Rationale**: Mechanism survives across policy changes. Prescription rots as policy evolves. Keep spec concerns at the level of capability.
+
+### Decision 9: MDX gap is acknowledged but not addressed
+
+**Chosen**: spec includes an "MDX Gap Acknowledgment" requirement naming the gap and the mechanism (suppression forms) available to cover it. No prescription on how to use the mechanism.
+
+**Rationale**: Surfacing the gap in the capability spec lets future policy changes reference it without rediscovering. Choosing between `ignoreExports` and JSDoc and custom-plugin is policy.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **Capability install without policy produces a non-functional tier** → Acknowledged: `bun run verify:hygiene:ts` with an empty `.fallowrc.json` may produce many findings or pass trivially depending on fallow's defaults. That is expected — the tier is installed but not meaningful until policy populates the config. Follow-on policy changes bring it to life incrementally.
+- **Developer without fallow installed** → `require_fallow_binary` emits an actionable install command, same pattern as `require_cargo_machete`.
+- **CI job failure behavior** → the initial CI invocation uses default fallow flags. Whether the job exits green, warn, or red is policy-dependent. Reviewers should expect the first CI run after this change to surface calibration findings, not to block.
+- **Spec fragmentation with sibling Rust proposal** → both modify `verification-tier-policy` additively. Task 8.x guards the case where archive ordering inverts.
+- **Follow-on policy churn** → enumerating 12 planned follow-on changes (see proposal) is a lot of policy work. Each is small and independently reviewable; the capability install is the foundation that makes them composable.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+This is a purely additive capability install. Rollback is revert-only.
+
+Rollout steps (matches the Tasks):
+
+1. Helper + tier script land (local runnable but probably produces noise).
+2. `.fallowrc.json` minimal scaffold + `.fallow/` directory land.
+3. `verify:hygiene:ts` script registered in `package.json`; `verify:ci` updated to mirror CI.
+4. CI job lands with default invocation.
+5. CLAUDE.md updated with tier row + Change-Type Map row + cross-reference.
+
+Each follow-on policy change (enumerated in the proposal) is a separate rollout on its own cadence.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+All previously "open questions" about specific values (severities, thresholds, base-refs, tolerance, etc.) are reframed as policy decisions for follow-on changes. None are in scope for this capability install.
+
+Remaining capability-level open questions:
+
+- Exact shape of the minimal `.fallowrc.json` that fallow accepts without error. Implementation task 3.2 validates this by running fallow once against the scaffold.
+- Whether `fallow init` would be a cleaner scaffolding path than hand-writing `.fallowrc.json`. Implementation may choose either; the result is the same capability.
+- Whether the `fallow-rs/fallow@v2` GitHub Action is the only supported CI invocation or whether a bare `fallow` step is also valid. Implementation task 5.x verifies.

+> **SUPERSEDED by add-code-hygiene-protocol — not implemented.** See `openspec/changes/add-code-hygiene-protocol/` for the authoritative design.
+
+## Why
+
+The Animus TS surface (10 workspace packages, thousands of TS/TSX files) has no cross-module dead-code, duplicate-export, circular-dependency, or architecture-boundary detection capability today. `verify:lint` uses Biome which is per-file only; the one-way dependency topology (`packages/* ← e2e/*`, no imports of `legacy/*`) is documented in root `CLAUDE.md` but has no mechanical enforcement surface — the doc itself flags a future CI grep/lint rule as a gap.
+
+`fallow-rs` is a stable-rust static analyzer whose capability surface (verified from README) covers every static-analysis concern the repo would want to apply: 13 dead-code subclasses, duplicate-code detection, complexity/health metrics, an architecture-boundaries mechanism, an audit orchestrator with verdict semantics, and native baseline + regression-ratchet support for staged enforcement. It ships 90 framework plugins including Vite, Rolldown, Tsdown, Next.js, and Vitest, and produces SARIF + PR-annotation output for GitHub CI.
+
+This change installs that capability surface — the tier, the helper, the config file location, the baseline directory convention, the CI job, and the Change-Type Map registration. **It does NOT set policy.** Specific rule severities, threshold values, boundary rules, workspace scopes, suppression entries, baseline commit decisions, fast-gate inclusion, output formats on CI — all are deferred to separate policy changes. Once this capability is in place, each policy decision is a small, reviewable change on its own.
+
+This change is the symmetric TS counterpart to `add-rust-dep-hygiene`. Together they establish the `verify:hygiene:*` tier family; each sibling installs a hygiene capability without prescribing its policy.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **New atomic tier `verify:hygiene:ts`**: new script `scripts/verify/hygiene-ts.sh` that sources `_preconditions.sh`, calls new helper `require_fallow_binary`, and invokes `fallow audit`. Specific flag choices are deferred.
+- **Extend helper library**: add `require_fallow_binary` to `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` following the existing `require_*` contract.
+- **New config file `.fallowrc.json`** at repo root with a minimal, syntactically-valid shape: `$schema` pointer plus empty/default values for every key fallow natively supports (`entry`, `workspaces`, `ignorePatterns`, `ignoreDependencies`, `ignoreExports`, `rules`, `health`, `boundaries`, `audit`). The file's existence is the capability; population is policy.
+- **New baseline directory `.fallow/`** at repo root as the convention location for baseline files. Whether specific baselines are generated and committed is a policy decision.
+- **Reserve rationale registry location** at `.fallow/SUPPRESSIONS.md`. Whether entries must appear there is a policy decision; this change establishes the location.
+- **CI job `hygiene-ts`**: parallel with existing CI jobs. Uses `fallow-rs/fallow@v2` GH Action with default invocation. Specific output formats, SARIF/annotations integration, and `--changed-since` scoping are policy decisions set by follow-on changes.
+- **`verify:ci` composite orchestrator** updated to mirror the new CI job. The `verify` fast-gate composition is NOT modified (fast-gate membership is a policy decision).
+- **Dev script namespace reservation**: root `package.json` gains a `fallow:*` script (at minimum `fallow:audit`). Specific additional `fallow:*` scripts are policy.
+- **Root CLAUDE.md updates**: add `verify:hygiene:ts` row to Verification Tiers table; add Change-Type Map row for `.fallowrc.json` / `.fallow/**`; cross-reference the new `ts-static-analysis` spec. Existing TS-source Change-Type Map rows are NOT modified (policy decision).
+- **Explicitly NOT included**: all policy decisions — rule severities, `boundaries` custom rules (including the topology codification), workspace list contents, ignorePatterns contents, initial suppression entries, health threshold values, baseline commit decisions, specific `--changed-since`/SARIF/annotations CI flag choices, fast-gate inclusion of the new tier, augmentation of existing Change-Type Map rows, custom MDX plugin, Phase-2/3 activation mechanics.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `ts-static-analysis`: the fallow capability surface — tool binding, config key surface, suppression mechanisms, workspace/boundary/dead-code/dupes/health/audit/baseline mechanisms, MDX gap acknowledgment, CI integration surface, dev script namespace. Mechanism only; policy is deferred.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `verification-tier-policy`: register `verify:hygiene:ts` as an atomic tier with its tool precondition; extend the Shared Precondition Helper Library with `require_fallow_binary`; extend the Change-Type Map with a row for `.fallowrc.json` / `.fallow/**`; extend `verify:ci` CI-Simulation Semantics to mirror the new CI job. The Composite Orchestrators requirement (which defines `verify` fast-gate composition) is NOT modified — that's a policy decision.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Code**:
+  - New: `scripts/verify/hygiene-ts.sh`
+  - New: `.fallowrc.json` at repo root (minimal shape)
+  - New: `.fallow/` directory with placeholder
+  - Modified: `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` (add `require_fallow_binary`)
+  - Modified: `package.json` (register `verify:hygiene:ts` script, reserve `fallow:*` namespace, update `verify:ci` composition)
+  - Modified: `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` (new `hygiene-ts` job)
+  - Modified: root `CLAUDE.md` (tier table row + change-type map row + cross-reference note)
+- **APIs**: None. Internal tooling only.
+- **Dependencies**: adds `fallow` as a dev-time CLI tool (CI via `fallow-rs/fallow@v2` Action, local install documented in the helper's error message).
+- **Release surface**: zero.
+- **Developer experience**: a new atomic tier exists and can be run on demand (`bun run verify:hygiene:ts`). CI gains a new standalone parallel gate. Outcome semantics (what fails the tier, what does not) depend on follow-on policy changes; at this capability install, the tier will invoke fallow with default configuration.
+
+## Follow-on policy changes (NOT in scope here)
+
+To be proposed separately, each addressing one policy dimension:
+
+- `apply-ts-workspace-scoping`: populate `workspaces` / `ignorePatterns` values in `.fallowrc.json`
+- `apply-ts-boundary-rules`: codify the one-way dependency topology as custom `boundaries` rules
+- `apply-ts-rule-severity`: set per-subclass severity in `rules`
+- `apply-ts-health-thresholds`: set initial `health.max*` threshold values
+- `apply-ts-suppression-rationale`: require rationale entries in `.fallow/SUPPRESSIONS.md` for config-level suppressions
+- `apply-ts-mdx-suppressions`: populate `ignoreExports` (or JSDoc annotations) for MDX-only-consumed components
+- `apply-ts-baseline-commit`: decide whether baselines are committed, regenerated on what cadence, and at what tolerance
+- `apply-ts-ci-output-formats`: wire SARIF + annotations flags, `--changed-since` scoping, Code Scanning upload
+- `apply-ts-fast-gate-inclusion`: add `verify:hygiene:ts` to the `verify` composition (conditional on measured runtime)
+- `apply-ts-changetype-map-augmentation`: augment existing TS-source rows to include `verify:hygiene:ts`
+- `fix-fallow-mdx-trace`: investigate writing a custom fallow plugin for `.mdx` imports
+- `enforce-ts-static-analysis`: when baselines are empty, retire them and flip all rules to full severity (Phase 3)
+
+These are enumerated so reviewers can see the expected policy landscape this capability is designed to support.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Tool Binding
+
+The `verify:hygiene:ts` atomic tier SHALL be bound to `fallow-rs` (the `fallow` CLI) as its invocation surface. The configuration file location SHALL resolve to `.fallowrc.json` at the repository root. Per-analysis baseline files SHALL resolve under a `.fallow/` directory at the repository root.
+
+Specific rule severities, threshold values, boundary rules, suppression entries, and workspace inclusions are policy decisions set by separate changes.
+
+#### Scenario: Fallow is the invoked tool
+
+- **WHEN** `verify:hygiene:ts` runs
+- **THEN** the tier invokes the `fallow` CLI with configuration loaded from `.fallowrc.json`
+
+#### Scenario: Baselines directory convention
+
+- **WHEN** fallow is configured to save a baseline
+- **THEN** the target path is under `.fallow/` at the repository root
+- **AND** other components (CI jobs, dev scripts) resolve baseline paths from the same location
+
+### Requirement: Config Key Surface
+
+The `.fallowrc.json` file SHALL expose, at minimum, the config keys fallow natively supports: `entry`, `workspaces`, `ignorePatterns`, `ignoreDependencies`, `ignoreExports`, `rules`, `health`, `boundaries`, `audit`, and `$schema`. The mere existence of each key as an accepted shape is the capability this spec installs; specific values within those keys are policy.
+
+A policy change modifying any of these keys SHALL NOT require modifying this spec unless the change introduces a new top-level capability (e.g., a new subcommand surface fallow has not previously exposed).
+
+#### Scenario: Config keys accept values
+
+- **WHEN** a future policy change sets a value in any of the enumerated keys
+- **THEN** fallow parses the config without error (the key is natively supported)
+- **AND** the tier picks up the new value on next run
+
+#### Scenario: Schema pointer enables editor support
+
+- **WHEN** a developer opens `.fallowrc.json` in an IDE
+- **THEN** the `$schema` pointer resolves to fallow's published JSON schema
+- **AND** autocomplete works on supported keys
+
+### Requirement: Suppression Mechanisms
+
+The repository SHALL expose fallow's native suppression surface in three forms: (1) source-local annotations on declarations (e.g., JSDoc visibility tags), (2) file-scoped inline comment directives, and (3) config-level exclusion entries in `.fallowrc.json` (`ignoreExports`, `ignoreDependencies`, `ignorePatterns`). The specific syntax of each form is whatever fallow natively accepts; this spec does not pin the literal strings.
+
+A rationale registry location SHALL be reserved at `.fallow/SUPPRESSIONS.md`. Whether specific suppressions must populate the file with rationale entries is a policy decision.
+
+The mechanism for detecting stale suppressions SHALL be available through fallow's native interface. Whether stale suppressions fail the tier or are merely reported is a policy decision.
+
+#### Scenario: All three suppression forms are accepted
+
+- **WHEN** a source file uses any of the three suppression forms
+- **THEN** fallow's scan respects the suppression on that specific finding
+
+#### Scenario: Rationale registry location is stable
+
+- **WHEN** a future policy change wants to add rationale entries
+- **THEN** `.fallow/SUPPRESSIONS.md` is the canonical location
+- **AND** CI jobs, dev scripts, and agents know to look there
+
+#### Scenario: Stale suppressions surface
+
+- **WHEN** a suppression targets code that is no longer unused
+- **AND** the tier runs with the stale-suppression check enabled
+- **THEN** the stale suppression appears in fallow's output
+
+### Requirement: Workspace Scoping Mechanism
+
+The `.fallowrc.json` `workspaces` and `ignorePatterns` keys SHALL provide the mechanism for scoping fallow's analysis across the monorepo. The file SHALL exist with a syntactically-valid shape. Specific package scoping choices (which packages appear in `workspaces`, additional globs in `ignorePatterns`) are policy.
+
+The `legacy/**` path SHALL appear in `ignorePatterns` at capability-install time. The legacy archive exclusion is a topology invariant defined by root `CLAUDE.md` § Workspace Topology and § Legacy Packages — not a tunable. Fallow scanning `legacy/*` would violate the one-way independence rule ("the active graph must not depend on archived code") by producing cross-workspace findings for an archived tree. This exclusion is therefore mechanism, not policy.
+
+#### Scenario: Workspaces key scopes analysis
+
+- **WHEN** `workspaces` is set to one or more glob patterns
+- **THEN** fallow analyzes files under matching directories
+- **AND** files outside matching directories are not analyzed as workspace members
+
+#### Scenario: Ignore patterns exclude files
+
+- **WHEN** `ignorePatterns` includes a glob
+- **THEN** fallow's scan skips files matching that glob
+- **AND** no findings are produced for those files
+
+#### Scenario: Legacy exclusion is present at install time
+
+- **WHEN** a developer inspects `.fallowrc.json` after this capability is installed
+- **THEN** `legacy/**` appears in `ignorePatterns`
+- **AND** no `fallow` run produces findings against files under `legacy/*`
+
+### Requirement: Architecture Boundaries Mechanism
+
+The `.fallowrc.json` `boundaries` key SHALL be available as the mechanism for encoding import-direction rules across the repository. Both fallow's presets (if used) and custom rules SHALL be supported shapes under this key. Specific boundary rules are policy and are set by a separate change.
+
+The tier SHALL classify boundary-rule violations under a finding class fallow exposes (e.g., `boundary-violation`); the severity assignment for that finding class is a policy decision set in the `rules` key by a separate change.
+
+#### Scenario: Boundary key accepts custom rules
+
+- **WHEN** a policy change adds custom rules under `boundaries`
+- **THEN** fallow loads them and enforces them on next scan
+
+#### Scenario: Violations appear as findings
+
+- **WHEN** source code violates any configured boundary rule
+- **THEN** fallow produces a finding on that file:line with the boundary-violation class
+
+### Requirement: Dead-Code Detection
+
+The `verify:hygiene:ts` tier SHALL invoke fallow's dead-code analysis covering the full set of issue subclasses fallow natively detects (such as: unused files/exports/deps, unresolved imports, circular deps, boundary violations, stale suppressions — the authoritative enumeration is fallow's own documentation, not this spec).
+
+Per-subclass severity SHALL be configurable via the `rules` key. Specific severity assignments are policy.
+
+#### Scenario: All subclasses available
+
+- **WHEN** fallow's scan completes
+- **THEN** any enabled dead-code subclass producing findings surfaces them in the output
+
+#### Scenario: Severity reconfiguration is policy-driven
+
+- **WHEN** a policy change updates a rule's severity in `.fallowrc.json`
+- **THEN** the tier's next run applies the new severity without code changes
+
+### Requirement: Duplicate Code Detection
+
+The tier SHALL invoke fallow's `dupes` analysis with a configurable detection mode (strict | mild | weak | semantic) and SHALL produce findings for detected duplications. The specific mode selection is policy.
+
+#### Scenario: Dupes analysis runs
+
+- **WHEN** the tier invokes fallow with dupes detection enabled
+- **THEN** duplication findings are produced and surface in the output
+
+### Requirement: Health Metrics
+
+The tier SHALL invoke fallow's `health` analysis collecting complexity and maintainability metrics. Threshold keys (e.g., `maxCyclomatic`, `maxCognitive`, `maxCrap`) SHALL be configurable via the `health` key in `.fallowrc.json`. Specific threshold values and whether they are enforced as hard gates or baseline-tracked are policy.
+
+#### Scenario: Health analysis produces metrics
+
+- **WHEN** the tier invokes fallow with health collection enabled
+- **THEN** complexity and maintainability metrics are produced in the output
+
+### Requirement: Audit Orchestrator
+
+The tier SHALL be invokable through fallow's `audit` orchestrator, which combines dead-code + dupes + health into a single verdict-returning pass. The base reference (`--base <ref>`) SHALL be a configurable input; whether the tier defaults to a specific branch is a policy decision.
+
+Exit-code semantics (how verdicts map to process exit codes) are defined by fallow's own interface and SHALL be relied on unchanged; this spec does not pin the mapping.
+
+#### Scenario: Audit returns a verdict
+
+- **WHEN** `fallow audit --base <ref>` runs
+- **THEN** output includes a pass/warn/fail verdict from fallow
+- **AND** the tier's process exit code follows fallow's native verdict-to-exit-code mapping
+
+### Requirement: Baseline and Ratchet Mechanism
+
+Fallow's baseline mechanism (`--save-baseline <path>`, `--baseline <path>`, `--fail-on-regression`, `--tolerance <pct>`) SHALL be the supported path for staged enforcement. Per-analysis baseline file paths SHALL resolve under `.fallow/` (`dead-code-baseline.json`, `health-baseline.json`, `dupes-baseline.json`).
+
+Whether baselines are committed to the repository, regenerated on what cadence, invoked with what tolerance, and transitioned-out-of when empty — all of those are policy decisions set by separate changes. The capability installed here is the baseline mechanism's presence and file-location convention.
+
+#### Scenario: Baselines persist under .fallow
+
+- **WHEN** a developer or CI job invokes fallow with `--save-baseline`
+- **THEN** the generated baseline file lands under `.fallow/` at the expected filename
+
+#### Scenario: Regression comparison is mechanism-level supported
+
+- **WHEN** fallow is invoked with `--baseline <path> --fail-on-regression`
+- **THEN** new findings not present in the baseline fail the invocation per fallow's native semantics
+
+### Requirement: MDX Dynamic-Discovery Surface
+
+The spec SHALL record as a mechanism claim that `.mdx` files under `packages/showcase/src/content/**` (presently 26 files) constitute a dynamic-discovery surface fallow's static analyzer cannot resolve. Components referenced only from MDX content will surface as dead-code findings unless covered by a suppression mechanism.
+
+The three suppression mechanisms defined under "Suppression Mechanisms" SHALL be the available coverage for this gap. Which mechanism is preferred for MDX cases, whether rationale entries are required, and whether a future custom fallow plugin should eventually replace the suppression approach are all policy decisions set by separate changes.
+
+#### Scenario: MDX surface is registered
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer investigates why an MDX-only-consumed component surfaces as unused
+- **THEN** this spec's MDX requirement names the gap with file-location specificity
+- **AND** the three suppression mechanisms are documented as available coverage
+
+#### Scenario: Suppression resolves MDX-only unused finding
+
+- **WHEN** a component referenced only from `.mdx` carries any of the three suppression forms targeting it
+- **AND** `verify:hygiene:ts` runs
+- **THEN** fallow does not produce a dead-code finding for that component
+
+### Requirement: CI Integration Surface
+
+The repository SHALL expose a CI job invoking fallow in the GitHub Actions workflow. The invocation mechanism (a dedicated fallow GitHub Action, a manual `fallow` step, or equivalent) is an implementation detail, verified at implementation time. Fallow's native output formats SHALL be available for CI consumers; which formats the job emits and whether they are uploaded to GitHub Code Scanning are policy decisions.
+
+The CI job SHALL be structured as a standalone parallel gate (not blocking other jobs' critical path, not required by other jobs' `needs:` lists).
+
+#### Scenario: Action integrates with GitHub
+
+- **WHEN** the CI workflow invokes the fallow Action on a PR
+- **THEN** fallow runs in the CI environment and produces output per the configured flags
+
+#### Scenario: Standalone gate
+
+- **WHEN** the CI workflow's job graph is inspected
+- **THEN** the fallow CI job does not appear in any other job's `needs:` list
+- **AND** other jobs run independently of the fallow job's outcome
+
+### Requirement: Dev Script Surface
+
+Root `package.json` SHALL carry a `fallow:*` namespace for developer-on-demand scripts invoking fallow subcommands. The namespace SHALL NOT be invoked by any `verify:*` composite orchestrator. Which specific `fallow:*` scripts are registered (e.g., `fallow:audit`, `fallow:fix`, `fallow:watch`, `fallow:baseline`) is a policy decision.
+
+#### Scenario: Dev namespace exists
+
+- **WHEN** a developer inspects root `package.json` scripts
+- **THEN** the `fallow:*` prefix is a recognized namespace for dev-on-demand fallow invocations
+
+#### Scenario: Dev scripts are not in verify orchestrators
+
+- **WHEN** any `verify:*` composite orchestrator runs
+- **THEN** no `fallow:*` dev script is invoked as part of the composition

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Atomic Tier Isolation
+
+Every atomic tier SHALL execute its single concern in isolation. An atomic tier MUST NOT silently trigger upstream builds. An atomic tier MUST begin with a shell precondition block that exits with a non-zero status and a human-readable instruction identifying the missing upstream artifact and the exact command to produce it.
+
+The atomic tiers defined by this policy are: `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:canary`, `verify:integration`, `verify:build:next`, `verify:build:showcase`, `verify:assert:next`, `verify:assert:showcase`, `verify:hygiene:rust`, `verify:hygiene:ts`.
+
+Atomic tier preconditions SHALL be derived from the actual script each tier invokes (what the tier reads at runtime), not from generic "TS built" assumptions. In particular:
+
+- `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:hygiene:rust`, `verify:hygiene:ts` have **no upstream artifact preconditions** — they operate on source. `verify:hygiene:rust` additionally requires the `cargo-machete` binary to be installed; `verify:hygiene:ts` additionally requires the `fallow` binary to be installed. These are tool preconditions, not artifact preconditions, and fail loud via `require_cargo_machete` / `require_fallow_binary`.
+- `verify:unit:ts` operates on source via `bun test`'s on-the-fly transpilation — no `dist/` precondition.
+- `verify:canary` requires only a fresh NAPI binary; it does NOT require `packages/extract/dist/` or any other package's `dist/`.
+- `verify:integration` requires a fresh NAPI binary AND a fresh `packages/extract/dist/index.mjs` (mtime newer than `packages/extract/src/**`) AND a fresh `packages/system/dist/` (mtime newer than `packages/system/src/**`) — `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` and `@animus-ui/system` are both resolved via dist at test time.
+- `verify:build:next` requires a fresh NAPI binary AND fresh `packages/extract/dist/` AND fresh `packages/system/dist/` AND fresh `packages/next-plugin/dist/` (each mtime newer than its own package's `src/**`). The bundler invokes the Next plugin at build time and consumer code resolves `@animus-ui/system` through dist.
+- `verify:build:showcase` requires a fresh NAPI binary AND fresh `packages/extract/dist/` AND fresh `packages/system/dist/` AND fresh `packages/vite-plugin/dist/` AND fresh `packages/properties/dist/` (each mtime newer than its own package's `src/**`). The showcase resolves all four packages through dist.
+- `verify:assert:next` requires `e2e/next-app/.next/` build output.
+- `verify:assert:showcase` requires `packages/showcase/dist/` build output.
+
+For any tier that consumes a package's `dist/` at runtime, the precondition SHALL check BOTH existence AND freshness (mtime comparison against that package's `src/**`). An existence-only check that accepts a stale dist SHALL be treated as incorrect — it will silently pass tiers against outdated types or code.
+
+#### Scenario: Missing NAPI binary surfaces as precondition failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:canary` with no `packages/extract/*.node` file present
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr includes the exact message "ERROR: NAPI binary missing. Run: bun run build:extract" (or equivalent identifying the required upstream command)
+
+#### Scenario: Stale NAPI binary surfaces as precondition failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:canary` with a `.node` file older than the newest `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` source file
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr identifies the binary as stale and includes the command `bun run build:extract`
+
+#### Scenario: Present upstream artifact allows tier to run
+
+- **WHEN** the fresh NAPI binary is present
+- **AND** the developer runs `verify:canary`
+- **THEN** the canary tests execute without any build step being re-run by the tier itself
+
+#### Scenario: Tier does not rebuild upstream silently
+
+- **WHEN** `verify:integration` is invoked with `packages/extract/dist/` missing
+- **THEN** the tier exits with a precondition failure identifying `bun run build:ts` (or `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build:ts`) as the required upstream
+- **AND** the tier does NOT invoke the build itself
+
+#### Scenario: Source-reading tier has no artifact precondition
+
+- **WHEN** `verify:compile` or `verify:types` or `verify:unit:ts` runs
+- **THEN** the tier does NOT fail on missing `dist/` artifacts (because it reads source, not `dist/`)
+- **AND** any precondition the script emits is limited to actual runtime inputs (e.g., `bun install` has been run)
+
+#### Scenario: Stale consumer-facing package dist surfaces as precondition failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:build:next` with `packages/system/dist/index.d.ts` older than `packages/system/src/**` source files
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr identifies `packages/system/dist/` as stale and includes the command `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts`
+- **AND** the Next build does NOT run against the stale dist
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-dependency staleness check short-circuits on first failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:build:showcase` with BOTH `packages/system/dist/` and `packages/vite-plugin/dist/` stale
+- **THEN** the script exits 1 at the first stale-dist check it encounters
+- **AND** stderr identifies the first-detected stale package (either one, but only one)
+- **AND** the showcase build does NOT run
+
+#### Scenario: Missing cargo-machete binary surfaces as tool precondition failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:hygiene:rust` with no `cargo-machete` binary on PATH
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr includes the exact message "ERROR: cargo-machete missing. Run: cargo install cargo-machete"
+
+#### Scenario: Hygiene tier does not require any built artifact
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:hygiene:rust` with no NAPI binary and no package `dist/` directories present
+- **AND** `cargo-machete` is installed
+- **THEN** the tier runs to completion (source + Cargo.toml is all it reads)
+- **AND** no build of any kind is triggered
+
+#### Scenario: Missing fallow binary surfaces as tool precondition failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:hygiene:ts` with no `fallow` binary on PATH
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr includes an exact message matching "ERROR: fallow missing. Run: <install-command>" where the install command is the canonical global install (`bun install -g fallow` or `npm install -g fallow`)
+
+#### Scenario: TS hygiene tier does not require any built artifact
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:hygiene:ts` with no NAPI binary and no package `dist/` directories present
+- **AND** `fallow` is installed
+- **AND** `.fallowrc.json` and `.fallow/*-baseline.json` files exist
+- **THEN** the tier runs to completion (source + config + baselines is all it reads)
+- **AND** no build of any kind is triggered
+
+### Requirement: Shared Precondition Helper Library
+
+A shared shell helper SHALL exist at `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` and SHALL be the single authoritative implementation of all atomic-tier precondition checks. Every atomic tier script SHALL source this helper and invoke named helper functions rather than inline precondition logic. Duplication of precondition logic across atomic tier scripts SHALL NOT exist once this helper is in place.
+
+The helper SHALL export at minimum these composable shell functions:
+
+- `require_bun_install` — checks that `node_modules/.bin/tsc` exists; on failure emits "ERROR: tsc binary not found at node_modules/.bin/tsc. Run: bun install" and exits 1.
+- `require_fresh_napi` — checks `packages/extract/*.node` existence AND mtime newer than every `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` source file; on failure emits the appropriate missing/stale message with fix command `bun run build:extract`.
+- `require_fresh_package_dist <pkg>` — checks the key dist artifact existence AND mtime freshness for the named workspace package; on failure emits the appropriate missing/stale message with fix command `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/<pkg>' build:ts`.
+- `require_dir <path> <fix_command>` — checks that `<path>` exists; on failure emits "ERROR: <path> missing. Run: <fix_command>" and exits 1.
+- `require_cargo_machete` — checks that the `cargo-machete` binary is available on PATH; on failure emits "ERROR: cargo-machete missing. Run: cargo install cargo-machete" and exits 1.
+- `require_fallow_binary` — checks that the `fallow` binary is available on PATH (e.g., via `command -v fallow`); on failure emits "ERROR: fallow missing. Run: bun install -g fallow" (or the canonical install command chosen at implementation time) and exits 1.
+
+All helper functions SHALL emit errors to stderr and return exit code 1 on failure. The helper SHALL be sourced (not spawned as a subprocess) so the calling tier script inherits exit semantics. The helper SHALL have `set -euo pipefail`-compatible behavior — i.e., not rely on side effects that the caller's strict-mode settings would prevent.
+
+When this Requirement is implemented, the following existing tier scripts MUST be rewritten to call helper functions instead of containing inline precondition logic: `scripts/verify/canary.sh`, `scripts/verify/integration.sh`, `scripts/verify/build-next.sh`, `scripts/verify/build-showcase.sh`, `scripts/verify/assert-next.sh`, `scripts/verify/assert-showcase.sh`, `scripts/verify/compile.sh`, `scripts/verify/types.sh`. Source-only tier scripts (`verify:lint`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:hygiene:rust`, `verify:hygiene:ts`) MAY source the helper for consistency even if they currently require no precondition calls. `scripts/verify/hygiene-rust.sh` MUST source the helper and invoke `require_cargo_machete`. `scripts/verify/hygiene-ts.sh` MUST source the helper and invoke `require_fallow_binary`.
+
+#### Scenario: Tier script sources the helper
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer inspects any atomic tier script under `scripts/verify/`
+- **THEN** the script includes `source "$ROOT/scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh"` near the top
+- **AND** all precondition logic is expressed as `require_*` function calls
+- **AND** no inline `ls packages/extract/*.node` / `find -newer` patterns appear in the tier script itself
+
+#### Scenario: Helper is the one authoritative implementation
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer greps `scripts/verify/*.sh` for inline `find -newer` patterns
+- **THEN** matches appear only within `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` — never in an individual tier script
+
+#### Scenario: Helper function emits actionable error message
+
+- **WHEN** `require_fresh_package_dist system` is called and `packages/system/dist/` is stale
+- **THEN** stderr contains a line matching "ERROR: packages/system/dist/ is stale (src newer than dist). Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts"
+- **AND** the calling script exits with status 1
+
+#### Scenario: Helper handles NAPI package specialization
+
+- **WHEN** `require_fresh_napi` is invoked and the NAPI binary is stale relative to Rust source
+- **THEN** the emitted error message uses the command `bun run build:extract` (not `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build:ts`)
+- **AND** the script exits with status 1
+
+#### Scenario: Helper detects missing cargo-machete binary
+
+- **WHEN** `require_cargo_machete` is invoked and `command -v cargo-machete` returns non-zero
+- **THEN** stderr contains the line "ERROR: cargo-machete missing. Run: cargo install cargo-machete"
+- **AND** the calling script exits with status 1
+
+#### Scenario: Helper detects missing fallow binary
+
+- **WHEN** `require_fallow_binary` is invoked and `command -v fallow` returns non-zero
+- **THEN** stderr contains a line matching "ERROR: fallow missing. Run: <install-command>"
+- **AND** the calling script exits with status 1
+
+### Requirement: Change-Type Map
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL contain a Change-Type Map: a table with the columns `You changed` (an edit-surface description, e.g., a path glob or behavior) and `Run` (the minimum verification-tier set to run for that change). The map MUST contain 13 canonical rows covering the primary edit surfaces of the repository, plus a sidebar note covering non-verify edit surfaces.
+
+Rows SHALL be added when a new top-level edit surface (e.g., a new publishable package, a new `e2e/*` fixture, a new top-level config file) is introduced.
+
+The canonical rows:
+
+| You changed | Run |
+|---|---|
+| `packages/system/src/**` | `verify:compile && verify:types && verify:unit:ts` |
+| `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` | `verify:unit:rust && verify:canary && verify:integration` |
+| `packages/extract/src/**/*.ts` (NAPI TS binding / pipeline) | `verify:canary && verify:integration` |
+| `packages/extract/Cargo.toml` | `verify:hygiene:rust` |
+| `packages/vite-plugin/src/**` | `verify:compile && verify:integration && verify:showcase` |

+Sidebar — **no verify tier required**: `openspec/**` (run `openspec validate` instead), MDX content under `packages/showcase/src/content/**`, root markdown (`CLAUDE.md`, `README.md`, `docs/**`).
+
+The Change-Type Map SHALL be the authoritative instructability surface for agents selecting minimum verification for a narrow change.
+
+#### Scenario: Agent selects verification set from the map
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only files under a mapped edit surface
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map in root `CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** the agent runs the exact tier set listed against that surface
+- **AND** does not run unrelated tiers
+
+#### Scenario: OpenSpec edit does not trigger verify
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only files under `openspec/`
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map sidebar
+- **THEN** the agent runs `openspec validate` only
+- **AND** does not invoke any `verify:*` tier
+
+#### Scenario: MDX content edit does not trigger verify
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only MDX files under `packages/showcase/src/content/**`
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map sidebar
+- **THEN** no `verify:*` tier is required
+
+#### Scenario: Cargo.toml edit triggers hygiene tier
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only `packages/extract/Cargo.toml` (for example, adding or removing a `[dependencies]` entry)
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map
+- **THEN** the agent runs `verify:hygiene:rust && verify:unit:rust`
+- **AND** does not need to run `verify:canary` or `verify:integration` unless `.rs` sources also changed
+
+#### Scenario: Fallow config edit triggers TS hygiene tier
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only `.fallowrc.json` or any file under `.fallow/**`
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map
+- **THEN** the agent runs `verify:hygiene:ts`
+
+#### Scenario: New edit surface requires a map row
+
+- **WHEN** a change introduces a new publishable package or a new top-level edit surface
+- **THEN** the same change MUST add a corresponding row to the Change-Type Map
+
+### Requirement: verify:ci CI-Simulation Semantics
+
+`verify:ci` SHALL reproduce the CI workflow's job set and execution order locally on a best-effort basis. It MUST run the same command sequence as CI jobs `lint`, `test-rust`, `hygiene-rust`, `hygiene-ts`, `build-extract`, and `verify` (in that order). It MUST invoke `bun run build:extract` and `bun run build:ts` inline (CI materializes these artifacts before verify). It MUST include `verify:integration` and `verify:build:showcase` + `verify:assert:showcase` (CI runs both).
+
+It MUST NOT attempt runner-OS parity, matrix-target multiplicity (CI builds 3 platform binaries; local builds 1), or release-gated steps.
+
+If CI workflow ordering or coverage changes, `verify:ci` MUST be updated in the same change that modifies `ci.yaml`.
+
+#### Scenario: CI ordering matches locally
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:ci`
+- **THEN** lint runs first, then Rust unit tests, then Rust hygiene, then TS hygiene, then `bun run build:extract`, then `bun run build:ts`, then the verify-equivalent tiers including integration and showcase assert
+
+#### Scenario: CI workflow edit keeps verify:ci in sync
+
+- **WHEN** a change modifies `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` job ordering or commands
+- **THEN** the same change modifies the `verify:ci` script to match
+
+#### Scenario: hygiene jobs parallel in CI map to sequential locally
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:ci`
+- **THEN** `verify:hygiene:rust` and `verify:hygiene:ts` execute sequentially (local parallelism is not a requirement)
+- **AND** a machete or fallow failure surfaces before the build-extract step runs

+## 1. Precondition Helper Extension
+
+- [ ] 1.1 Add `require_fallow_binary` function to `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` following the existing `require_*` pattern: `command -v fallow >/dev/null 2>&1` check, on failure emit `ERROR: fallow missing. Run: bun install -g fallow` to stderr and exit 1. The install command SHALL use `bun` (not `npm`) per root `CLAUDE.md` § MANDATORY RULES — the repo is bun-only.
+- [ ] 1.2 Before the task group is marked done, run `bun install -g fallow` (or whatever fallow's actual bun-compatible recipe is) once locally and verify the binary resolves. If bun global install does not ship fallow, record the verified alternative install command (e.g., `cargo install fallow` if it's a Rust crate on crates.io) and use that in the helper's error message.
+- [ ] 1.3 Confirm the helper remains `set -euo pipefail`-compatible.
+
+## 2. Hygiene Tier Script
+
+- [ ] 2.1 Create `scripts/verify/hygiene-ts.sh` with `#!/usr/bin/env bash` + `set -euo pipefail`, compute `ROOT` the same way the other tier scripts do, source `_preconditions.sh`, call `require_fallow_binary`, then `cd "$ROOT" && exec fallow audit`. (The specific `--base <ref>` and format flags are policy; leave the invocation bare so a follow-on policy change configures it via either command-line defaults or env-vars.)
+- [ ] 2.2 `chmod +x scripts/verify/hygiene-ts.sh`.
+
+## 3. Config Scaffold
+
+- [ ] 3.1 Create `.fallowrc.json` at the repository root with a minimal, syntactically-valid shape: `$schema` pointer (if fallow publishes one — otherwise omit), empty `entry`, empty `workspaces`, `ignorePatterns: ["legacy/**"]` (the one topology-invariant exclusion required by the spec's Workspace Scoping Mechanism requirement), empty `ignoreDependencies`, empty-object `ignoreExports`, empty-object `rules`, empty-object `health`, empty-object `boundaries`, `audit` block pointing at `.fallow/*-baseline.json` paths.
+- [ ] 3.2 Run `fallow` once against the scaffolded config to confirm it parses without error AND verifies that `legacy/**` is honored (no findings produced against `legacy/*`). The tier may otherwise produce findings — that is expected and is addressed by follow-on policy changes.
+- [ ] 3.3 Create empty `.fallow/` directory; add a `.gitkeep` or README placeholder so the directory exists in the repo.
+
+## 4. Package Script Registration
+
+- [ ] 4.1 Add `"verify:hygiene:ts": "bash scripts/verify/hygiene-ts.sh"` to the `scripts` block of root `package.json`, positioned adjacent to `verify:hygiene:rust` for readability.
+- [ ] 4.2 Reserve the `fallow:*` namespace by adding at least one script that exists as the namespace marker: `"fallow:audit": "fallow audit"`. Additional dev-only scripts (`fallow:fix`, `fallow:watch`, `fallow:baseline`) MAY be added here or by follow-on policy changes — both paths are valid capability-level since the namespace is now reserved.
+- [ ] 4.3 Update the `verify:ci` composite orchestrator to invoke `verify:hygiene:ts` in the CI-mirroring sequence (since CI gains a `hygiene-ts` job in group 5). Do NOT modify the `verify` fast-gate composition — whether to include `verify:hygiene:ts` in the fast-gate is a separate policy decision.
+
+## 5. CI Workflow Wiring
+
+- [ ] 5.1 **Supply-chain validation (gate before wiring):** verify the fallow CI invocation mechanism actually exists. Run `gh api repos/fallow-rs/fallow` (or equivalent) to confirm the repository, maintainer identity, and latest released version. If fallow publishes an official GitHub Action, confirm its identity. If not, determine the correct bare-`fallow`-CLI invocation recipe for CI. Do NOT proceed until this is verified — the entire capability install is a no-op if the Action name or CLI distribution was misidentified.
+- [ ] 5.2 Add new `hygiene-ts` job to `.github/workflows/ci.yaml`, positioned as a standalone parallel gate with `lint` / `test-rust` / `build-extract`.
+- [ ] 5.3 Use the verified invocation mechanism from task 5.1 with a pinned tool version. Record the pin in a workflow step comment.
+- [ ] 5.4 Pass the minimum flags required for the job to invoke fallow and report a result. Specific output-format choices (SARIF, annotations, JSON), `--changed-since` ref selection, and PR-vs-push scoping are policy — default invocation is acceptable for capability install.
+- [ ] 5.5 Verify the `verify` job's `needs:` list does NOT include `hygiene-ts` (standalone parallel gate).
+- [ ] 5.6 Push a CI preview branch; confirm `hygiene-ts` job runs parallel, executes fallow against the repo, and reports a result. Expected posture: **tier exists + job runs to completion without crashing.** The pass/warn/fail verdict depends on policy changes not yet landed — that is the intended capability-install state. Document the first-run verdict in the PR description so reviewers see it.
+
+## 6. Root CLAUDE.md Updates
+
+- [ ] 6.1 Add a new row to the Verification Tiers → Atomic Tiers table: `| bun run verify:hygiene:ts | fallow audit on TS surface | fallow binary on PATH | fallow audit returns fail verdict (or fallow missing) | TBD |`. The runtime cell value is left TBD since it depends on policy-driven config.
+- [ ] 6.2 Add a new Change-Type Map row: `| .fallowrc.json, .fallow/** | verify:hygiene:ts |`. Place it adjacent to the `packages/extract/Cargo.toml` row established by the Rust-hygiene change.
+- [ ] 6.3 Add a cross-reference note in the Verification Tiers section: "See `openspec/specs/ts-static-analysis/spec.md` for the authoritative fallow capability surface. Policy-level decisions (rule severities, boundary rules, suppression entries, threshold values, baseline commits) are set by separate policy changes."
+- [ ] 6.4 Do NOT modify existing TS-source Change-Type Map rows to include `verify:hygiene:ts`. That's a policy decision set by a separate change.
+- [ ] 6.5 Confirm no CLAUDE.md-level duplication of the tier table leaks into per-package CLAUDE.md files.
+
+## 7. Validation
+
+- [ ] 7.1 Run `openspec validate add-ts-static-analysis --strict` and confirm clean.
+- [ ] 7.2 Run `bun run verify:hygiene:ts` locally; confirm it invokes fallow without crashing (outcome pass/fail is expected to be policy-dependent, not validated here).
+- [ ] 7.3 Induce a tool-missing failure: on a machine without `fallow`, or by renaming the binary / overriding PATH, run `bash scripts/verify/hygiene-ts.sh`, confirm the exact error message matching "ERROR: fallow missing. Run: <install-command>" and exit 1.
+- [ ] 7.4 Confirm the Change-Type Map row for `.fallowrc.json` resolves to the expected tier (`verify:hygiene:ts`).
+- [ ] 7.5 Confirm `fallow` parses `.fallowrc.json` without schema errors and recognizes all enumerated config keys (even if values are empty).
+- [ ] 7.6 Confirm the CI preview run completes: `hygiene-ts` job runs to completion, emits output.
+
+## 8. Cross-Change Alignment with add-rust-dep-hygiene
+
+- [ ] 8.1 **Bidirectional MODIFIED re-sync.** Both changes MODIFY the same four requirements in `verification-tier-policy` (Atomic Tier Isolation, Shared Precondition Helper Library, Change-Type Map, `verify:ci` CI-Simulation Semantics). OpenSpec MODIFIED semantics replace the full block. Before this change archives, confirm `add-rust-dep-hygiene`'s archive state (or lack thereof) and re-sync this change's MODIFIED blocks to preserve ALL prior content: (a) if Rust archived first, this change's MODIFIED blocks must contain both `verify:hygiene:rust` AND `verify:hygiene:ts` additions; (b) if this change archives first, add-rust-dep-hygiene's MODIFIED blocks must be updated before its own archive to preserve the ts additions. Either direction is valid; both must be guarded.
+- [ ] 8.2 Confirm the `_preconditions.sh` helper additions from both changes do not conflict (different function names: `require_cargo_machete` vs `require_fallow_binary`).
+- [ ] 8.3 Confirm the shared `verify:ci` orchestrator places both hygiene tiers adjacent in the CI-mirroring order.
+- [ ] 8.4 Confirm the Change-Type Map contains both the `Cargo.toml` row (at its capability-only value `verify:hygiene:rust`) and the `.fallowrc.json` / `.fallow/**` row adjacent to each other. Do NOT augment the Cargo.toml row in this change — augmentation is a policy decision deferred to `apply-rust-hygiene-changetype-augmentation`.
+
+## 9. First-Run Expectation Documentation
+
+- [ ] 9.1 Document in the PR description (and optionally in `design.md`) that fallow's first-run output against the capability-install state is expected to contain noise from unreachable framework-plugin entry points. Specifically: `packages/_assertions/src/**` exports consumed only by `e2e/*/scripts/assert-build.ts`, `scripts/assert-showcase-build.ts`, and `packages/_integration/__tests__/manifest-shape.test.ts` are likely to flag as unused until policy changes populate `entry` or `ignoreExports`. This noise IS the signal for follow-on policy work — not a tier defect.
+- [ ] 9.2 Add a note to the PR description naming the expected first-run verdict. If it is `fail` on the default invocation, the policy follow-ons (`apply-ts-workspace-scoping`, `apply-ts-suppression-rationale`) will flip it to `warn` or `pass` — that is the intended staged path.

+## Context
+
+Agents and humans finish changes carrying dead artifacts (unused imports, vars, exports, files, deps) they don't remember adding. The `verify:*` tier family is read-only by contract and will never mutate files. A separate end-of-work hygiene surface is needed — invocable by both humans and agents, explicitly NOT part of CI.
+
+Two prior in-flight changes attempted this. Empirical verification THIS session (2026-04-24):
+- fallow 2.x runs at ~5.3s on this repo; knip 6.6.2 runs at ~0.86s — knip is ~6× faster and catches real unused deps that fallow's `publicPackages: ["@animus-ui/*"]` wildcard was suppressing.
+- `remove-unused-vars@0.0.12` crashes against biome 2.x JSON output (`TypeError: source.length` inside `createByteToCharConverter`). The package's `transformBiome()` still parses biome 1.x shape (`location.path.file`, `location.sourceCode`, `location.span[0]`); biome 2.x emits different fields (`location.path: string`, `location.start/end: {line, column}`). Package's own `node --test` matrix fails 7/7 on the biome branch. No open upstream fix. No usable fork.
+- `tsr` (line/tsr) is a read-only archived mirror (user-verified). Not viable.
+
+Biome 2.4.9 auto-fix semantics (empirically verified this session at `/tmp/hygiene-probe3/`):
+- `noUnusedImports` unsafe: DELETES named imports, preserves side-effect imports (by design)
+- `noUnusedVariables` unsafe: RENAMES `const`/`function`/`let` to `_`-prefix; offers NO fix for `class`/`type`/`interface`/`enum`/destructured-field
+- `noUnusedFunctionParameters` unsafe: RENAMES to `_`-prefix (including trailing params — arity preserved, correct)
+- `noUnusedPrivateClassMembers` unsafe: DELETES fields and method bodies cleanly
+- `biome check --write` (safe, no `--unsafe`) applies NONE of these four — only formatting + `useConst`
+
+Knip v6 capability surface (verified against knip.dev this session):
+- `--fix` scopes: `dependencies`, `exports`, `types`, `files`, `catalog`
+- `--allow-remove-files` opt-in for file deletion
+- No `--dry-run`; git is the rollback mechanism
+- No `--changed-since` / git-diff flag; scoping is workspace-granular via `--workspace`
+- `classMembers` issue type REMOVED in v6 (breaking vs v5 / fallow)
+- No NAPI plugin — platform tarballs need `ignoreDependencies`
+- Plugin config overrides REPLACE, not merge
+
+These empirical results define the decision space.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Deterministic, predictable cleanup of unused artifacts across the TS surface
+- DELETE semantics (not rename) for dead decls
+- Two scopes: `changed` (diff-based, default) and `all` (full repo)
+- Two modes: `scan` (report only, default — safe default for agents) and `fix` (mutating, with safety envelope)
+- Agent + human invocation parity through a single flag-driven entrypoint
+- Grounding in this-session-verified tool behavior (no recall-based claims)
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- CI / GitHub Actions wiring — explicitly end-of-work only
+- Rust hygiene (orthogonal `add-rust-dep-hygiene` covers `cargo-machete`)
+- Refactoring, import-reordering beyond biome's safe rules, any non-deletion rewrite
+- Rename-based "fixes" for top-level decls
+- MDX content scanning beyond knip's out-of-box plugin behavior
+- Detection of unused non-private class members (biome covers private; knip v6 removed `classMembers`; accept as known gap)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### D1: Tool triad = biome + knip + home-roll deleter
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- `fallow + remove-unused-vars + biome` (prior arcs) — rejected: fallow 6× slower, `remove-unused-vars` broken against biome 2.x, `publicPackages` wildcard hid real unused deps.
+- `biome + tsr + knip` — rejected: `tsr` is archived/read-only.
+- `biome + home-roll-cross-file + home-roll-intra-file` — rejected: reimplementing knip's module-graph analysis is significant scope; knip does it well.
+
+**Rationale:** Each tool occupies a disjoint domain. Biome = per-file lint detection + safe/unsafe auto-fix. Knip = cross-file module graph (exports, files, deps). Home-roll deleter = intra-file DELETE for decls biome refuses to delete. Composition is additive with clean boundaries.
+
+### D2: Cascade order A → B → C → D, loop to convergence
+
+- **Layer A. biome safe** (`biome check --write <files>`): formatting, `useConst`, other safe rules. Run first so downstream tools see canonical whitespace.
+- **Layer B. biome unsafe-scoped** (`biome check --write --unsafe --only=correctness/noUnusedImports --only=correctness/noUnusedPrivateClassMembers <files>`): only the two rules biome deletes cleanly. Repeated `--only` flags are the session-88-verified benign form (`memory/feedback_no_biome_unsafe.md`). `--only` scoping is MANDATORY to exclude `noConsole`'s console-warn-stripping auto-fix.
+- **Layer C. home-roll deleter**: consumes biome `--reporter=json` for `noUnusedVariables` diagnostics and deletes the enclosing declaration.
+- **Layer D. knip fix** (`knip --fix --fix-type exports,types,dependencies,files --allow-remove-files [--workspace ...]`): cross-file export + file + dep cleanup.
+
+**Rationale for ordering:** Intra-file cleanup (A/B/C) before cross-file (D) — every intra-file deletion reduces knip's workload. D's file-deletion can in turn make imports in other files unused, feeding back into A/B on the next iteration.
+
+**Iteration:** loop until either (a) one full A→B→C→D pass produces zero git-diff change, or (b) iteration cap reached (default 5, flag-configurable via `--iterations`). Rationale: cross-file deletions cascade; loop until fixed-point.
+
+### D3: Reject biome rename-to-underscore for top-level decls
+
+Biome 2.4.9's `noUnusedVariables` unsafe auto-fix renames `const unusedFoo` to `_unusedFoo`. **Rejected** because rename leaves dead decls polluting the file, obscures what's live vs dead, and creates maintenance burden. Home-roll deleter applies the opposite semantic (DELETE the enclosing declaration statement).
+
+**Exception:** `noUnusedFunctionParameters` rename-to-underscore IS the correct semantic for positional params (preserves arity contract — callers expect the function to accept N arguments). The cascade does NOT auto-apply this rule's fix; biome's warning is left for human review when the dev needs to decide whether the arity still matters.
+
+### D4: Home-roll deleter algorithm
+
+Runs `biome check --reporter=json <files>` internally. Parses biome 2.x diagnostic shape:
+
+```jsonc
+{
+  "diagnostics": [
+    {
+      "category": "correctness/noUnusedVariables",
+      "severity": "error" | "warning" | "info",
+      "location": {
+        "path": "packages/system/src/foo.ts",
+        "start": { "line": 12, "column": 7 },
+        "end":   { "line": 12, "column": 17 }
+      },
+      "message": { /* textual */ }
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+(Biome 1.x shape `location.path.file` / `location.sourceCode` / `location.span[0]` is different; the deleter does NOT touch that shape.)
+
+**Algorithm:**
+
+1. Group diagnostics by `location.path`.
+2. For each file:
+   a. Read source.
+   b. `ts.createSourceFile(path, source, ts.ScriptTarget.Latest, /* setParentNodes */ true)`.
+   c. Convert biome's 1-indexed `line`/`column` to a character offset via a simple line-scan.
+   d. For each diagnostic offset: descend the AST to the narrowest containing node; walk up until hitting one of: `VariableStatement`, `FunctionDeclaration`, `ClassDeclaration`, `TypeAliasDeclaration`, `InterfaceDeclaration`, `EnumDeclaration`, or (destructured-field case) `BindingElement`.
+   e. Record the `(pos, end)` range.
+   f. Special case: a `VariableStatement` containing multiple declarators — if only one is dead, remove just the matching `VariableDeclaration` + its trailing comma; preserve the rest.
+   g. Special case: `BindingElement` in an `ObjectBindingPattern` or `ArrayBindingPattern` — remove the element + neighboring comma.
+3. Sort ranges in reverse offset order and splice out each one. Reverse order preserves earlier offsets while splicing later ones.
+4. Write the modified source back.
+
+**Contract test** (`scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.test.ts`): fixtures run biome against a known-bad probe file, pipe output through the deleter, and assert the post-deletion file matches a golden. Tests assert against biome 2.x field names explicitly so a biome 3.x bump fails loud on a single known test rather than silently corrupting files.
+
+### D5: Knip workspace derivation for `scope=changed`
+
+Knip v6 has no `--changed-since`. Derivation:
+
+1. `git diff --name-only "$BASE" -- '*.ts' '*.tsx' '*.js' '*.mjs' '*.cjs' '*.json'`
+2. For each file, find the containing workspace: walk up the directory tree until hitting a `package.json` with a `"name"` field. Record the `name`.
+3. De-duplicate. If the only match is the repo root (e.g., scripts-only changes), pass `--workspace .` or skip knip (knip operates at workspace granularity; root-only changes have no cross-file export semantics to check).
+4. Invoke `knip --workspace <name1> --workspace <name2> ...`.
+
+**Edge:** root-level config changes (e.g., `.knip.json`, `biome.json`, `tsconfig.base.json`) map to root — handle by invoking knip at root scope OR skipping; decision: skip in `changed` mode since a config-only diff has no symbol-graph delta.
+
+### D6: Scan-mode snapshot mechanics
+
+Knip has no `--dry-run`; scan mode needs a reproducible preview. Mechanism:
+
+1. **Require clean worktree.** If `git status --porcelain` is non-empty, abort with: "scan mode requires clean worktree. Commit or stash changes and re-run." No force-flag.
+2. **Snapshot for recovery:** `SNAPSHOT_SHA=$(git stash create)` — creates an orphan commit pointing at HEAD-tree state; can be recovered via `git stash store` or `git show <sha>` even after reset.
+3. **Run cascade destructively** — same code path as fix mode, minus the safety envelope.
+4. **Capture report:** `git diff --stat` + `git diff --name-status`.
+5. **Restore:** `git reset --hard HEAD && git clean -fd`.
+6. **Print snapshot SHA** at end: "recovery snapshot: $SNAPSHOT_SHA (recover via: `git stash store $SNAPSHOT_SHA` then `git stash pop`)".
+
+Rationale for clean-worktree hard-requirement: the `reset --hard` + `clean -fd` restoration is catastrophic against uncommitted work. Adding a permissive force-flag invites accidents; the snapshot SHA is a recovery path but not a substitute for prevention.
+
+### D7: Safety envelope — no auto-revert
+
+Fix mode, post-convergence:
+
+1. `bun run verify:compile`
+2. `bun run verify:lint`
+
+On ANY failure:
+- Print the failing tool's output.
+- Print `git status` + file list of hygiene mutations.
+- Print recovery options: `git reset --hard HEAD` to discard, fix forward, or `git add -p` to keep partial.
+- Exit non-zero. Do NOT auto-revert.
+
+**Rationale:** Agent and human both know their working context better than the orchestrator does. A hygiene run on an already-dirty branch could entangle legitimate in-progress work with the hygiene mutations; automatic revert would destroy both. Keep agency with the invoker.
+
+### D8: Invocation ergonomics — single flag-driven bash entrypoint
+
+`scripts/hygiene/run.sh` is the sole orchestrator. Flags:
+
+- `--mode=scan|fix` (default: `scan`)
+- `--scope=changed|all` (default: `changed`)
+- `--base=<git-ref>` (default: `main`; env override `HYGIENE_BASE_REF`)
+- `--iterations=<n>` (default: `5`)
+
+Bun script wrappers in `package.json`:
+
+- `"hygiene": "bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh"` → passes flags through via `$@` semantics of bun scripts
+- Invoke as `bun run hygiene`, `bun run hygiene --apply`, `bun run hygiene --all`, `bun run hygiene --apply --all`
+- Internally, `--apply` sets `--mode=fix`; `--all` sets `--scope=all`. Raw `--mode=...` / `--scope=...` still work.
+
+Agent invocation is identical — agents invoke via the Bash tool with the same flags. No skill shortcut is required for the MVP.
+
+### D9: Supersession plan for prior in-flight changes
+
+`add-diff-scoped-hygiene-cleanup` and `add-ts-static-analysis` are archived as part of this change's tasks, BEFORE this change itself is archived. Supersession steps per prior change:
+
+1. Add a top-of-proposal note: `> SUPERSEDED by add-code-hygiene-protocol. Not implemented; see the new change for the authoritative design.`
+2. `openspec archive <name> --skip-specs -y` (or equivalent — specs were never promoted, so archive-without-promoting is the intent).
+3. Do NOT promote the prior changes' draft specs to `openspec/specs/`. Discard them.
+
+This keeps the audit trail (prior changes remain in `openspec/changes/archive/`) without letting their design anchor future work or masquerade as authoritative.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[Risk: `noConsole` auto-fix strips `console.warn`]** → **Mitigation**: `--only=correctness/noUnusedImports,correctness/noUnusedPrivateClassMembers` in Layer B excludes it. Established repo feedback rule (`memory/feedback_no_biome_unsafe.md`). Verified safe against probe fixtures this session.
+- **[Risk: home-roll deleter coordinate drift on biome version bump]** → **Mitigation**: contract test `scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.test.ts` asserts biome 2.x JSON field shape. Fails loud on biome 3.x.
+- **[Risk: knip has no `--changed-since`]** → **Mitigation**: external workspace-derivation in `scope=changed` mode (D5). Granularity drop from file to workspace is acceptable since knip's analyses are inherently cross-file anyway.
+- **[Risk: scan-mode `reset --hard` could destroy work if worktree is dirty]** → **Mitigation**: scan requires clean worktree (hard error); `git stash create` snapshot SHA is recovery path; SHA printed at end of each run.
+- **[Risk: iteration loop non-termination on adversarial input]** → **Mitigation**: iteration cap (default 5, flag-configurable); early-exit on "no change across a full pass."
+- **[Risk: safety envelope failure leaves partial mutations]** → **Mitigation**: explicit design choice to NOT auto-revert; clear documentation + actionable output listing recovery options. Trade-off is explicit — we prefer no-data-loss over no-partial-state.
+- **[Risk: `knip@6.6.2` is fresh (released 2026-04-23)]** → **Mitigation**: pin to `^6` in `package.json` to pick up patch releases; if stability issues surface, tighten to exact version.
+- **[Trade-off: DELETE-only, no rename]** → users wanting to mark symbols as intentionally-unused during dev use `// biome-ignore` inline suppression or `@public` / custom `@lintignore` JSDoc tags for knip. Not automating rename-as-signal is a deliberate choice.
+- **[Known gap: unused non-private class members]** → biome covers private; knip v6 removed `classMembers`. Accepted as uncovered. Revisit if pain.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+**Rollout:**
+1. Implement per `tasks.md` (archive priors → install knip → scripts → preconditions → docs).
+2. `bun install` picks up `knip@^6`.
+3. Smoke test: `bun run hygiene` on clean worktree, verify the snapshot/restore cycle works and produces a readable diff report.
+4. Smoke test: `bun run hygiene --apply` on a branch with known dead code, verify cascade converges and envelope passes.
+
+**Rollback:** `git revert` the change commit; `bun install` restores prior lockfile. No CI state, no schema state, no external service state to unwind.
+
+**Archival order (within this change):**
+1. `openspec archive add-diff-scoped-hygiene-cleanup --skip-specs -y` (supersession note added first)
+2. `openspec archive add-ts-static-analysis --skip-specs -y` (supersession note added first)
+3. Implement `add-code-hygiene-protocol` end-to-end.
+4. `openspec archive add-code-hygiene-protocol` (promotes `code-hygiene` spec to `openspec/specs/`).
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- **Q1**: Should the `hygiene` script default to `scan` (safe, current plan) or require explicit `--mode` (explicit, avoids surprise)? Defaulting to scan is the safer default — mutation is always behind `--apply`. Going with default=scan unless reviewed otherwise.
+- **Q2**: Does knip auto-enable a Biome plugin on this repo, and does it produce useful signal? UNCLEAR from docs this session. Defer to calibration task — run knip with default config once, inspect, adjust `.knip.json` if needed.
+- **Q3**: Expand home-roll deleter to handle other delete-candidate biome rules (`noUnusedLabels`, etc.)? MVP scope is `noUnusedVariables` + destructured-field subset of `noUnusedFunctionParameters`. Enlarge only if a concrete pain case emerges.
+- **Q4**: Should we add a `.claude/skills/hygiene/` agent-shortcut skill in this change, or defer to a follow-on? Deferring — the skill would be a thin wrapper over `bun run hygiene --apply` that adds agent-specific framing (what to watch for, how to react to envelope failures). Low value for MVP; high value later once invocation patterns are established.

+## Why
+
+Agents and humans routinely finish changes carrying dead artifacts — unused imports, unused local variables, unused exports, orphaned files, unused `package.json` deps — that nobody remembers adding. The repo currently has no deterministic end-of-work checkpoint for "my diff contains nothing unused."
+
+Two prior in-flight changes (`add-diff-scoped-hygiene-cleanup` and `add-ts-static-analysis`) attempted this via a fallow-based cascade, but verification this session surfaced structural problems: (1) fallow is 6× slower than knip on this repo, (2) the `remove-unused-vars` package they planned to use as an intra-file deleter is broken against biome 2.x (its own test suite fails 7/7 on biome; dev-dep was bumped silently without a parser update), (3) the two changes' scope bled between read-only verification and mutating cleanup in ways that muddled the boundary between `verify:*` (read-only by contract) and actual file mutation. This change cuts those knots with a clean three-tool cascade explicitly scoped to end-of-work tooling, not CI, and supersedes both prior changes without crediting them toward the new capability.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **New capability `code-hygiene`** with single flag-driven entrypoint `bun run hygiene` — `scan + changed` by default (end-of-work ergonomic), `--apply` mutates, `--all` widens to full repo.
+- **Cascade**: biome safe pass → biome unsafe-scoped DELETE pass (only `noUnusedImports` + `noUnusedPrivateClassMembers` — the two rules biome deletes cleanly) → home-roll biome-JSON deleter (reads biome `--reporter=json` for `noUnusedVariables` diagnostics, uses `typescript` compiler API to delete the enclosing declaration at reported coordinates) → `knip --fix`. Loop to convergence or iteration cap.
+- **Install `knip@^6`** as new root devDependency. Fresh `.knip.json` written from scratch; no port of `.fallowrc.json` structure.
+- **Home-roll deleter** at `scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.ts` (~100-150 LOC TypeScript, bun-runnable, no new external dependency — uses the `typescript` devDep already present).
+- **Orchestrator** at `scripts/hygiene/run.sh` handles mode/scope flags, iteration loop, and safety envelope.
+- **Precondition helpers** in `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh`: `require_knip_binary`, `require_typescript`, `require_code_hygiene_deps` (composite).
+- **Safety envelope** on `fix` mode: `bun run verify:compile` + `bun run verify:lint` post-cascade; on failure, report and bail (no auto-revert — human/agent inspects `git diff`).
+- **Explicit exclusions**: biome's `noUnusedVariables` / `noUnusedFunctionParameters` unsafe auto-fixes (both rename to `_`-prefix) are NOT invoked — rename-as-fix is rejected for top-level decls (maintainability poison); positional-param rename is left as a biome warning for human review since arity-preservation is correct behavior.
+- **CLAUDE.md** gains a `### Code Hygiene Workflow` section documenting invocation, semantics, and safety envelope; any `verify:hygiene:ts` / fallow / `.fallowrc.json` references removed.
+- **BREAKING (openspec-layer only, no runtime impact)**: `add-diff-scoped-hygiene-cleanup` and `add-ts-static-analysis` are archived without implementation credit. Their draft specs (`hygiene-cleanup`, `ts-static-analysis`) never reached `openspec/specs/` and are discarded, not promoted.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `code-hygiene`: End-of-work (not CI) deterministic cleanup of unused-code artifacts across the TypeScript surface — unused imports, unused variables at any scope (with DELETE semantics, not rename), unused cross-file exports, unused files, unused dependencies. Two scopes (changed-only via git-diff base ref, full-repo) × two modes (scan-only or fix with safety envelope). Agent- and human-invocable. Explicitly distinct from `verify:*` tiers, which remain read-only by contract.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+<!-- None. Neither `hygiene-cleanup` nor `ts-static-analysis` was ever promoted to `openspec/specs/` — both are in-flight drafts being superseded. No REMOVED deltas required. -->
+
+## Impact
+
+- **New files**: `scripts/hygiene/run.sh`, `scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.ts`, `scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.test.ts` (contract test for biome 2.x JSON shape), `.knip.json`.
+- **Modified files**: `package.json` (+`knip` devDep, new/revised `hygiene*` scripts), `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` (+helpers), `CLAUDE.md` (workflow docs), `openspec/changes/add-diff-scoped-hygiene-cleanup/` (archive without credit), `openspec/changes/add-ts-static-analysis/` (archive without credit).
+- **Dependencies**: root devDependencies gains `knip@^6`; no fallow install, no `remove-unused-vars`, no `tsr`. `typescript` (existing devDep) is reused by the home-roll deleter.
+- **APIs / invocation surface**: new bun scripts `hygiene`, `hygiene --apply`, `hygiene --all`, `hygiene --apply --all`; bash entrypoint `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` with `--mode`, `--scope`, `--base`, `--iterations` flags; `HYGIENE_BASE_REF` env var.
+- **Orthogonal, not affected**: `add-rust-dep-hygiene` (cargo-machete) remains in-flight and valid — Rust dep hygiene is out of scope for this change. All existing `verify:*` tiers are untouched and remain read-only. CI workflow (`.github/workflows/ci.yaml`) is NOT modified by this change; end-of-work-only is explicit.
+- **Known uncovered edge** (accepted): unused non-private class members. Biome covers private; knip v6 removed the `classMembers` issue type. Revisit if it becomes a pain point.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Single flag-driven hygiene entrypoint
+
+The repository SHALL provide a single code-hygiene entrypoint invokable as `bun run hygiene` (or equivalently `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`) that accepts `--mode`, `--scope`, `--base`, and `--iterations` flags. The entrypoint SHALL be usable identically by humans and by agents through the Bash tool — no agent-specific wrapper SHALL be required.
+
+#### Scenario: Default invocation reports changed-scope without mutating
+
+- **WHEN** a user or agent runs `bun run hygiene` with no flags on a clean worktree
+- **THEN** the system SHALL run the cascade in scan mode against files changed vs `main`, print a `git diff --stat` + `git diff --name-status` style report, restore the worktree, and exit without retaining any mutation
+
+#### Scenario: Apply flag enables mutation
+
+- **WHEN** a user or agent runs `bun run hygiene --apply`
+- **THEN** the system SHALL run the cascade in fix mode against the changed-scope file set, retain mutations, and run the safety envelope
+
+#### Scenario: All flag widens scope to full repo
+
+- **WHEN** a user or agent runs `bun run hygiene --all`
+- **THEN** the system SHALL run the cascade against the full repository, not restricted by `git diff`
+
+### Requirement: Cascade is DELETE-only for dead declarations
+
+The cascade SHALL remove dead declarations through DELETION, not rename. This applies to unused imports, unused top-level `const` / `function` / `let` / `class` / `type alias` / `interface` / `enum` declarations, unused destructured binding elements, unused private class members, unused cross-file exports, unused files, and unused `package.json` dependencies.
+
+#### Scenario: Unused top-level const is deleted
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `const unusedConst = 1;` that is not referenced anywhere in the file and not exported
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode against that file
+- **THEN** the resulting file SHALL NOT contain the `unusedConst` declaration (the statement is removed, not renamed to `_unusedConst`)
+
+#### Scenario: Unused named import is deleted
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `import { usedFn, unusedFn } from 'foo';` where `unusedFn` is not referenced
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the resulting file SHALL contain `import { usedFn } from 'foo';` with `unusedFn` removed
+
+#### Scenario: Unused private class member is deleted
+
+- **WHEN** a class contains `private unusedMethod() { return 1; }` that is not referenced
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the method body SHALL be removed from the class
+
+### Requirement: Side-effect imports are preserved
+
+The cascade SHALL NOT remove side-effect imports (`import 'module-name';` without bindings). Biome does not flag side-effect imports as unused by design, and the home-roll deleter SHALL NOT augment biome's detection to include them.
+
+#### Scenario: Side-effect import survives cascade
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `import 'some-side-effect-module';` at the top
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the resulting file SHALL still contain that import statement
+
+### Requirement: Positional function parameters preserve arity via rename, not delete
+
+The cascade SHALL NOT DELETE positional function parameters. Biome's `noUnusedFunctionParameters` unsafe auto-fix renames unused positional parameters to `_`-prefixed names, which correctly preserves function arity contracts. The cascade SHALL leave this rule's reporting as a biome warning (not auto-applied) for human review; it SHALL NOT auto-rename positional parameters as part of the cascade.
+
+#### Scenario: Positional param is not deleted
+
+- **WHEN** a function `function f(a: number, unusedB: string) { return a; }` is present
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the function signature SHALL still contain two parameters (arity = 2) after the cascade
+
+### Requirement: Destructured binding elements are deleted when unused
+
+The cascade SHALL delete unused binding elements from destructuring patterns (object and array) because these are intra-file dead artifacts without an arity contract. Biome detects these but offers no fix; the home-roll deleter closes this gap.
+
+#### Scenario: Unused destructured field is deleted
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `const { a, b } = obj;` where `a` is not referenced and `b` is used
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the resulting file SHALL contain `const { b } = obj;`
+
+### Requirement: Cascade iterates to convergence or iteration cap
+
+The cascade SHALL run layers A (biome safe), B (biome unsafe-scoped delete), C (home-roll deleter), D (knip fix) in sequence, and SHALL repeat the full A→B→C→D sequence until either (a) one full pass produces no `git diff` change, or (b) the iteration cap (default 5, configurable via `--iterations`) is reached.
+
+#### Scenario: Cascade converges in fewer iterations than the cap
+
+- **WHEN** fix mode runs on a file set that stabilizes after 2 iterations
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL report "converged in 2 iterations" and exit successfully
+
+#### Scenario: Iteration cap is hit
+
+- **WHEN** fix mode runs and the cascade has not stabilized after `--iterations=N`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL report "iteration cap hit — re-run or investigate" and exit non-zero
+
+### Requirement: Safety envelope runs compile and lint after apply with no auto-revert
+
+After any fix-mode cascade run (whether converged or cap-hit), the orchestrator SHALL run `bun run verify:compile` followed by `bun run verify:lint`. On any failure, the orchestrator SHALL print the failing output, the current `git status`, a list of hygiene mutations, and recovery options; it SHALL exit non-zero. It SHALL NOT automatically revert the mutations.
+
+#### Scenario: Envelope passes after apply
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade applies successfully and both `verify:compile` and `verify:lint` pass
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL print a success summary and exit zero
+
+#### Scenario: Envelope fails after apply
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade applies and either `verify:compile` or `verify:lint` fails
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL print the failure output, `git status`, the mutation file list, and a three-line recovery hint (discard via `git reset --hard HEAD`, fix forward, or partial-keep via `git add -p`)
+- **AND** the orchestrator SHALL exit non-zero WITHOUT reverting any mutation
+
+### Requirement: Scope=changed derives knip workspaces from git-diff
+
+In `scope=changed` mode, the orchestrator SHALL derive knip's `--workspace` argument list by: (1) taking the output of `git diff --name-only "$BASE" -- '*.ts' '*.tsx' '*.js' '*.mjs' '*.cjs'`, (2) for each file, locating the nearest ancestor directory containing a `package.json` with a `"name"` field, (3) de-duplicating the name set, and (4) invoking knip with one `--workspace <name>` flag per distinct name.
+
+#### Scenario: Single-workspace diff scopes knip to one workspace
+
+- **WHEN** `git diff --name-only main` returns only files under `packages/system/src/`
+- **AND** the orchestrator runs in `scope=changed` mode
+- **THEN** knip is invoked with exactly one `--workspace @animus-ui/system` flag
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-workspace diff scopes knip to the union
+
+- **WHEN** the diff spans `packages/system/src/` and `packages/vite-plugin/src/`
+- **THEN** knip is invoked with both `--workspace @animus-ui/system` and `--workspace @animus-ui/vite-plugin`
+
+### Requirement: Scan mode requires a clean worktree
+
+Scan mode SHALL refuse to run on a dirty worktree. "Dirty" is defined as `git status --porcelain` returning non-empty output (untracked OR modified files). On detection of a dirty worktree, scan mode SHALL abort with a non-zero exit code and an error directing the user to commit or stash before re-running.
+
+#### Scenario: Scan refuses a dirty worktree
+
+- **WHEN** `mode=scan` and `git status --porcelain` is non-empty
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL exit non-zero and print: "scan mode requires clean worktree. Commit or stash changes and re-run."
+
+### Requirement: Scan mode provides a recovery snapshot
+
+When scan mode runs on a clean worktree, the orchestrator SHALL capture a `git stash create` snapshot SHA before the cascade runs, and SHALL print that SHA at end-of-run with instructions for recovery via `git stash store`.
+
+#### Scenario: Snapshot SHA is printed after scan
+
+- **WHEN** scan mode completes on a clean worktree
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL print a line of the form "recovery snapshot: <sha> (recover via: `git stash store <sha>` then `git stash pop`)"
+
+### Requirement: Scan mode restores worktree after reporting
+
+After scan mode runs the cascade destructively and captures the report, the orchestrator SHALL restore the worktree to its pre-run state via `git reset --hard HEAD` followed by `git clean -fd`.
+
+#### Scenario: Scan restores tracked and untracked state
+
+- **WHEN** scan mode has completed its cascade and captured the diff as a report
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL run `git reset --hard HEAD && git clean -fd` before exiting
+- **AND** `git status --porcelain` after exit SHALL be empty
+
+### Requirement: code-hygiene is excluded from CI workflows
+
+The code-hygiene capability SHALL NOT be invoked from any CI workflow file under `.github/workflows/`. Any addition of a `bun run hygiene` or `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` step to a CI workflow would violate the end-of-work-only contract and SHALL be rejected in code review.
+
+#### Scenario: No hygiene invocation in CI
+
+- **WHEN** the repo's `.github/workflows/*.yaml` files are inspected
+- **THEN** no step invokes `bun run hygiene`, `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`, or any hygiene orchestrator path
+
+### Requirement: Preconditions fail loud with actionable messages
+
+The orchestrator SHALL require knip, biome, and typescript to be available; it SHALL detect missing tooling at startup and exit non-zero with an actionable "Run: <command>" message in the format established by `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh`.
+
+#### Scenario: knip missing emits actionable error
+
+- **WHEN** `knip` is not installed (not present in `node_modules/`)
+- **AND** the orchestrator starts
+- **THEN** it SHALL exit non-zero with the message "ERROR: knip missing. Run: bun install"
+
+#### Scenario: biome missing emits actionable error
+
+- **WHEN** the biome binary is not reachable via `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome --version`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL exit non-zero with the message "ERROR: biome missing. Run: bun install"
+
+### Requirement: Rename-as-fix is never auto-applied for top-level declarations
+
+The cascade SHALL NOT invoke biome's `noUnusedVariables` unsafe auto-fix (which renames to `_`-prefix) as part of Layer B or any other layer. Rename-as-fix is rejected for top-level declarations; deletion via the home-roll deleter (Layer C) is the authoritative semantic.
+
+#### Scenario: Top-level unused const is not renamed
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const unusedConst = 1;` (not referenced, not exported)
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the resulting file SHALL NOT contain `const _unusedConst = 1;` (no rename-to-underscore occurs)
+- **AND** the `unusedConst` declaration SHALL be absent from the resulting file entirely (deleted by Layer C)
+
+### Requirement: `noConsole` auto-fix is excluded from Layer B
+
+Layer B's biome invocation SHALL use `--only` scoping that limits the applied rules to `correctness/noUnusedImports` and `correctness/noUnusedPrivateClassMembers` exclusively. Biome's `noConsole` rule, whose auto-fix strips `console.log` / `console.warn` calls, SHALL NOT be included in the scope.
+
+#### Scenario: console.warn survives Layer B
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `console.warn('diagnostic')` as a genuine runtime-observable line
+- **AND** Layer B runs against that file
+- **THEN** the `console.warn` call SHALL remain in the resulting file

+- [x] 1.7 Remove the following scripts from root `package.json` if present: `fallow:audit`, `verify:hygiene:ts`, `hygiene:preview`, `hygiene:apply` (will be re-added with new semantics in § 6)
+- [x] 1.8 Remove `verify:hygiene:ts` invocation from the `verify:ci` composite script chain in root `package.json`
+- [x] 1.9 Delete `scripts/verify/hygiene-ts.sh` if present

+
+## 2. Install and configure knip
+
+- [x] 2.1 Install knip v6 as a root devDependency: `bun add --dev knip@^6`
+- [x] 2.2 Verify install: `bunx --bun knip --version` exits 0 and reports `6.x.x`
+- [x] 2.3 Create `.knip.json` at repo root with `$schema: "https://unpkg.com/knip@6/schema.json"`, minimal `entry` patterns for Animus's workspace topology, `ignore` patterns for `legacy/**` and `packages/showcase/src/content/**/*.mdx`, and `ignoreDependencies` for NAPI platform tarballs (`@napi-rs/*` variants and any other build-only packages)
+- [x] 2.4 Calibrate `.knip.json` iteratively: run `bunx --bun knip --no-progress` baseline, inspect findings, add workspace overrides or ignore entries for known-live false positives, re-run until output contains only genuine unused findings
+- [x] 2.5 Confirm knip's Biome / Next / Vite / tsdown / Bun plugins auto-enable against Animus's `package.json` deps without explicit opt-in; add explicit plugin config ONLY if auto-detect produces wrong defaults (plugin overrides REPLACE not merge, so avoid overriding unless necessary)
+
+## 3. Home-roll deleter
+
+- [x] 3.1 Create `scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.ts` (TypeScript, bun-runnable). No new devDep — uses existing `typescript`.
+- [x] 3.2 Implement biome 2.x JSON parser: consume `--reporter=json` stdout, extract `diagnostics[]`, read `location.path: string`, `location.start.{line, column}: number`, `location.end.{line, column}: number`, and `category: string`
+- [x] 3.3 Implement filter: keep diagnostics with `category === "correctness/noUnusedVariables"`; include `category === "correctness/noUnusedFunctionParameters"` ONLY when the reported location targets a `BindingElement` inside a destructuring pattern (positional param rename is out-of-scope)
+- [x] 3.4 Implement line+column → character-offset conversion by scanning the source text (biome uses 1-indexed lines and 1-indexed columns)
+- [x] 3.5 Implement AST walker using `ts.createSourceFile(path, source, ts.ScriptTarget.Latest, /* setParentNodes */ true)`; given an offset, descend to the narrowest containing node, then walk up to the first ancestor matching one of: `VariableStatement`, `FunctionDeclaration`, `ClassDeclaration`, `TypeAliasDeclaration`, `InterfaceDeclaration`, `EnumDeclaration`, `BindingElement`
+- [x] 3.6 Handle multi-declarator `VariableStatement`: if one of several declarators is the dead one, remove just the matching `VariableDeclaration` node + its trailing comma, preserve the rest of the statement
+- [x] 3.7 Handle `BindingElement` inside `ObjectBindingPattern` / `ArrayBindingPattern`: remove element + neighboring comma; preserve enclosing declaration
+- [x] 3.8 Implement splice: sort all deletion ranges in reverse offset order, splice each out of the source string, write file back
+- [x] 3.9 CLI interface: accept explicit file list as args (optional) and/or read biome JSON from stdin; default reads stdin pipe; exit 0 on success (even if no mutations), exit 1 on biome JSON parse error, exit 2 on internal error
+- [x] 3.10 Create `scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.test.ts` with bun-test fixtures covering: unused `const`, unused `function`, unused `let`, unused `class`, unused `type`, unused `interface`, unused `enum`, destructured-field unused, multi-declarator `VariableStatement` with one dead, `BindingElement` comma-handling at start/middle/end positions
+- [x] 3.11 Add an explicit assertion in the test that verifies biome 2.x JSON field names (`location.path` as string, `location.start.line`, etc.) — so a biome 3.x bump that renames fields fails this test loud, pointing the next maintainer at the one-file fix
+
+## 4. Orchestrator script
+
+- [x] 4.1 Create `scripts/hygiene/run.sh` with `#!/usr/bin/env bash` and `set -euo pipefail`
+- [x] 4.2 Source `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` and invoke `require_code_hygiene_deps` at startup
+- [x] 4.3 Parse CLI flags: `--mode=scan|fix`, `--scope=changed|all`, `--base=<ref>`, `--iterations=<n>`, `--apply` (alias sets `mode=fix`), `--all` (alias sets `scope=all`); honor `HYGIENE_BASE_REF` env var for base ref; defaults: `mode=scan`, `scope=changed`, `base=main`, `iterations=5`
+- [x] 4.4 Implement file-set derivation: for `scope=changed` use `git diff --name-only "$BASE" -- '*.ts' '*.tsx' '*.js' '*.mjs' '*.cjs'`; for `scope=all` enumerate `packages/*/src/**` + `e2e/*/src/**` via find/rg
+- [x] 4.5 Implement workspace derivation: for each changed file, walk up to nearest `package.json` with a `"name"` field; deduplicate; output as array of names
+- [x] 4.6 Scan-mode guard: if `mode=scan` and `git status --porcelain` is non-empty, exit 1 with "ERROR: scan mode requires clean worktree. Commit or stash changes and re-run."
+- [x] 4.7 Scan-mode snapshot: capture `SNAPSHOT_SHA=$(git stash create 2>/dev/null || echo "")` immediately before the cascade (works even on clean tree — returns empty if nothing to stash, still proceeds)
+- [x] 4.8 Implement cascade loop up to `$ITERATIONS` iterations; each iteration runs layers A→B→C→D in order; after each pass check `git diff --quiet` (or equivalent) — exit loop early if no change
+- [x] 4.9 Layer A invocation: `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome check --write <files>` (safe pass — no `--unsafe`)
+- [x] 4.10 Layer B invocation: `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome check --write --unsafe --only=correctness/noUnusedImports --only=correctness/noUnusedPrivateClassMembers <files>` (verify empirically that biome accepts repeated `--only` flags; if it requires comma-separated form, adjust to `--only=correctness/noUnusedImports,correctness/noUnusedPrivateClassMembers`)
+- [x] 4.11 Layer C invocation: `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome check --reporter=json <files> | bun run scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.ts` (piped mode; deleter reads biome JSON from stdin)
+- [x] 4.12 Layer D invocation: for `scope=changed`, build workspace args via derivation from § 4.5, invoke `bunx --bun knip --fix --fix-type exports,types,dependencies,files --allow-remove-files --workspace <name>` (one `--workspace` per derived name); for `scope=all`, invoke without any `--workspace` flag
+- [x] 4.13 Scan-mode report + restore: after the cascade loop, capture `git diff --stat` and `git diff --name-status` into a report block, then `git reset --hard HEAD && git clean -fd` to restore the worktree; print the report block and the snapshot SHA with recovery instructions
+- [x] 4.14 Fix-mode safety envelope: after cascade, run `bun run verify:compile`; on failure, print output + `git status` + mutations list + three recovery options (hard reset, fix forward, partial-keep) and exit non-zero; if compile passes, run `bun run verify:lint`; same failure handling; do NOT auto-revert at any stage
+- [x] 4.15 Emit a structured summary to stdout in both modes: iteration count, per-layer mutation counts (from `git diff` diffs between layers), final convergence status, envelope result (fix mode) or snapshot SHA (scan mode)
+
+## 5. Precondition helpers
+
+- [x] 5.1 Add `require_knip_binary` helper to `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh`: `if ! bunx --bun knip --version >/dev/null 2>&1; then echo "ERROR: knip missing. Run: bun install" >&2; return 1; fi`
+- [x] 5.2 Add `require_typescript` helper: checks `node_modules/typescript/bin/tsc` is executable; error: "ERROR: typescript missing. Run: bun install"
+- [x] 5.3 Add `require_code_hygiene_deps` composite helper: `require_biome || return 1; require_knip_binary || return 1; require_typescript || return 1`
+- [x] 5.4 Confirm that the existing `require_biome` helper (added in prior arc) is unchanged and reused; do NOT reimplement
+- [x] 5.5 Add header-comment block documenting the new helpers follow the established `require_*` naming and `ERROR: X. Run: Y` message shape
+
+## 6. Package.json wiring
+
+- [x] 6.1 Add `"hygiene": "bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh"` to root `package.json` `scripts`
+- [x] 6.2 Verify `bun run hygiene --apply --all` correctly forwards flags through to the bash script (bun passes unknown trailing args to the underlying script by default; if not, adjust the wrapper to `"hygiene": "bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh \"$@\""` or equivalent)
+- [x] 6.3 Confirm `knip@^6` is the only new devDep; no `remove-unused-vars`, no `tsr`, no `fallow`, no `ts-morph`
+- [x] 6.4 Run `bun install` to update lockfile; commit `bun.lock` in the same commit as `package.json`
+
+## 7. Documentation surface
+
+- [x] 7.1 Replace the existing `### Hygiene Workflow` section in root `CLAUDE.md` with a section describing: the new `bun run hygiene` entrypoint, flag semantics, default behaviors, safety envelope (no auto-revert), snapshot SHA recovery, and the explicit end-of-work-only contract (no CI invocation)
+- [x] 7.2 Remove every `verify:hygiene:ts` reference from `CLAUDE.md` (atomic-tiers table, composite-orchestrators table, change-type map, hygiene-workflow section)
+- [x] 7.3 Remove every fallow / `.fallowrc.json` reference from `CLAUDE.md`
+- [x] 7.4 Add new rows to the Change-Type Map in `CLAUDE.md`: `.knip.json` → `bun run hygiene`; `scripts/hygiene/**` → `bun run hygiene` + `bun test scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.test.ts`
+- [x] 7.5 Remove any cross-references to the prior arc's `openspec/specs/hygiene-cleanup/spec.md` or `openspec/specs/ts-static-analysis/spec.md` (neither file exists; any references are stale)
+
+## Cascade coordination (session 90, 2026-04-24)
+
+Four scope=all edges from session 89 resolved via a post-knip reconciliation pass + knip config tuning. Empirically grounded: an agent audit of knip 6.6.2 `IssueFixer.js` confirmed its fixer is single-pass text splice with no post-state reasoning (no empty-file detection, no barrel-specifier cleanup, no iterative re-analysis); no config flag changes this.
+
+- [x] **C.1 Drop `--fix-type=types` from Layer D** — `scripts/hygiene/run.sh`. Prevents knip from removing internal type helpers whose transitive narrowing breaks consumers (session 89 test-ds TS2322). Final form: `--fix-type=exports --fix-type=dependencies --fix-type=files`.
+- [x] **C.2 Preserve `declare module` augmentation files** — `.knip.json` `ignoreFiles` adds `packages/test-ds/src/dev-types.ts`. `declare module` augmentations are invisible to knip's import graph; `ignoreFiles` stops knip from scanning / deleting them.
+- [x] **C.3 Write `scripts/hygiene/reconcile-after-knip.ts`** — post-knip AST pass handling two coordination gaps:
+  - 0-byte files (knip stripped content but couldn't delete because file is still imported). Pass 1 writes `export {};` → valid empty module, resolves TS2306 "not a module" at consumer.
+  - Stale barrel re-exports (knip removed source export but didn't rewrite the barrel). Pass 2 parses target file, strips named re-exports for bindings no longer present; removes whole `export { ... } from '...'` when all specifiers stale or target file deleted. Handles TS2305 (`has no exported member`) and TS2459 (`declared locally but not exported`).
+  - Null-hypothesis check: `export {};`-only file stubs suspected in session 89 were pre-existing defensive markers in our source, not knip emissions. One less script needed.
+- [x] **C.4 Wire Layer D1 into cascade loop** — `scripts/hygiene/run.sh` runs `reconcile-after-knip.ts` after Layer D on every iteration; D1 mutations ripple into next iteration's A/B/C/D for full fixed-point coordination.
+- [x] **C.5 Unit tests for reconciler** — `scripts/hygiene/reconcile-after-knip.test.ts`, 15 tests (40 total across hygiene suite). Real-filesystem `mkdtempSync` scratch dirs (not pure-string synthetic), covering: 0-byte fixup, export collection (named / default / clause / non-exported), TS2305 + TS2459 stripping, whole-declaration removal, deleted-target handling, `export *` preservation on empty targets, external-package skip, type-only re-export preservation.
+- [x] **C.6 Live integration proof** — `bun run hygiene --apply --all` on clean branch: cascade converged behaviorally; verify:compile clean across all 8 packages; verify:lint clean; envelope PASS. Iteration cap still reaches 5 (A/B/D idempotent-but-fingerprint-visible churn produces spurious non-convergence signal; behavior is correct — separate investigation).
+
+## 8. Smoke and finalize
+
+- [x] 8.1 Smoke-test scan mode on a clean checkout: `bun run hygiene` produces a readable report; `git status --porcelain` is empty after exit; snapshot SHA is printed
+- [x] 8.2 Smoke-test fix mode: deliberately introduce a dead `const`, an unused named import, and an unused cross-file export; run `bun run hygiene --apply`; verify cascade converges, envelope passes, and only the introduced dead artifacts are removed (no collateral changes)
+- [x] 8.3 Smoke-test `scope=all`: `bun run hygiene --all` and `bun run hygiene --apply --all` scope correctly; note any surprises in the calibration baseline for follow-on tuning
+- [x] 8.4 Smoke-test envelope-failure path: introduce a compile error that would survive the cascade (e.g., reference to a symbol that will be deleted); run `bun run hygiene --apply`; verify orchestrator reports the failure, prints recovery options, exits non-zero, and does NOT revert the mutations
+- [x] 8.5 Run `bun run verify:full` to confirm no regressions introduced by the archival removals, new scripts, or new devDep
+- [x] 8.6 Run `openspec validate add-code-hygiene-protocol --strict` and confirm passes
+- [ ] 8.7 Archive this change: `openspec archive add-code-hygiene-protocol -y` — promotes `code-hygiene` spec from this change's `specs/` to authoritative `openspec/specs/code-hygiene/spec.md`

+## Context
+
+The repository's `verify:*` tier family is the authoritative surface for static and dynamic verification. Each atomic tier has a single concern, fail-loud preconditions, and fits into one of two composite orchestrators (`verify` fast-gate or `verify:full`) plus the CI mirror `verify:ci`. The Rust crate in `packages/extract` currently has one atomic tier covering it — `verify:unit:rust` (cargo test --lib) — and no tier covering dependency hygiene.
+
+The crate has 14 runtime dependencies (9 `oxc_*` crates pinned together at `0.124.0`, plus `rquickjs`, `rayon`, `rustc-hash`, `serde`/`serde_json`, `napi`/`napi-derive`, `once_cell`) plus one build dependency (`napi-build`). Dependency removals during refactors can leave orphaned `Cargo.toml` entries that survive PR review; a recent example would be an OXC submodule that stops being used when a Rust extractor phase is consolidated.
+
+`cargo-machete` (stable-rust, prebuilt binaries via `taiki-e/install-action`) and `cargo-udeps` (nightly, compile-graph-based) are the two established options. For a single crate with a modest dep list, machete is right-sized and udeps is overhead. The tool is a guard against future rot rather than a cleanup mechanism — the current crate is expected to have zero unused deps on first run.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Catch unused Rust dependencies in the pre-commit / PR-gate layer, not at release time.
+- Fit the existing atomic-tier contract: single concern, fail-loud, shared helper, CLAUDE.md-registered.
+- Keep the fast-gate fast: machete runs in single-digit seconds and parses source without invoking the compiler.
+- Establish the `verify:hygiene:*` naming family so a future TS-side counterpart slots in symmetrically without re-negotiation.
+- Zero impact on published artifacts or consumer packages.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- `cargo-udeps` integration (nightly toolchain + full-graph compile cost not justified).
+- `cargo machete --fix` auto-remove in CI. Humans review removals.
+- TS-side dead-code detection (tracked separately as `add-ts-dead-code-detection`, pending fallow-rs audit against MDX + JSX + factory patterns).
+- Broader Rust lint/format enforcement (`clippy`, `rustfmt`).
+- Cargo workspace restructuring. The crate remains a single-crate project.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: `cargo-machete`, not `cargo-udeps`
+
+**Chosen**: `cargo-machete`.
+
+**Rationale**: Stable-rust, parses `Cargo.toml` + source `use` statements without compiling, sub-five-second runtime, prebuilt binary distribution via `taiki-e/install-action`. For a single crate with 15 total deps, this is the correct precision / cost tradeoff.
+
+**Alternative considered**: `cargo-udeps`. Rejected because (a) requires nightly toolchain, adding a second Rust toolchain install to CI, (b) compiles the full dep graph, 10-30× slower, (c) its additional precision (dead-on-specific-feature detection) is not earned at this scale.
+
+### Decision 2: Dedicated CI job `hygiene-rust`, parallel with `test-rust`
+
+**Chosen**: New CI job `hygiene-rust` paralleling `test-rust`, reusing the Rust toolchain + rust-cache setup.
+
+**Rationale**: Matches the existing single-concern job philosophy (lint, test-rust, build-extract are already isolated). Parallel execution hides the machete install and run time behind other jobs' runtime. Isolated failure surface — an unused-dep failure doesn't entangle with `cargo test` output.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Fold machete into `test-rust` as a preceding step. Rejected because it mixes concerns in one job and makes the failure class harder to identify in CI output.
+
+**Alternative considered**: Fold into the `lint` job. Rejected because `lint` does not install the Rust toolchain today, and adding one doubles the job's setup cost for a tier that is semantically Rust-specific.
+
+### Decision 3: `taiki-e/install-action@v2` for CI install, `cargo install` for local
+
+**Chosen**: `taiki-e/install-action@v2` with `tool: cargo-machete@<pinned-version>` in CI; `cargo install cargo-machete` in the local developer install-error message emitted by `require_cargo_machete`.
+
+**Rationale**: `taiki-e/install-action` pulls prebuilt binaries from upstream releases (sub-second install). `cargo install` is the universal fallback for developers who do not want extra tooling. The helper's error message names the canonical install command so the developer is never stuck.
+
+**Alternative considered**: `cargo install cargo-machete` directly in CI. Rejected because a cold install compiles the tool, adding 30-60s to the job on cache miss.
+
+### Decision 4: Config surface is `[package.metadata.cargo-machete]` in `Cargo.toml`
+
+**Chosen**: Add `[package.metadata.cargo-machete]` section with `ignored = []` to `packages/extract/Cargo.toml`.
+
+**Rationale**: This is machete's native config key. Colocating the allowlist with the manifest it guards keeps edits local. Starting with an empty list makes suppressions explicit additions rather than default noise. Two candidates for eventual entries: `napi-derive` (proc-macro, usage is through `#[napi]` attribute rather than `use` statement) and `napi-build` (build.rs-only dependency). These are investigated during implementation tasks; if machete handles either natively they stay absent from the list.
+
+### Decision 5: Fast-gate inclusion is a policy decision, not part of this capability install
+
+**Chosen**: do NOT modify the `verify` fast-gate composition in this change. Update `verify:ci` to mirror the new CI job (capability-mirror); leave `verify` membership to a follow-on policy change.
+
+**Rationale**: Peer directive — capabilities enable policies; adding a tier to the `verify` composition IS a policy decision about which tiers block inner-loop development. The capability is "the tier exists and can be invoked"; the policy is "it gates the fast loop." Follow-on `apply-rust-hygiene-fast-gate-inclusion` handles the decision once runtime has been measured.
+
+### Decision 6: Precondition helper function, not inline check
+
+**Chosen**: Add `require_cargo_machete` to `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` and have `hygiene-rust.sh` call it.
+
+**Rationale**: The spec's Shared Precondition Helper Library requirement mandates this pattern — no inline precondition logic in tier scripts. The helper emits an actionable install command; the tier script stays a three-line wrapper.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **`napi-derive` false positive** → Mitigation: initial implementation task includes running machete against the current crate and recording whether the proc-macro is flagged; if so, add it to `[package.metadata.cargo-machete].ignored` with a one-line rationale comment.
+- **`napi-build` build.rs detection** → Mitigation: same as above. Verify machete traverses `[build-dependencies]` or list `napi-build` in `ignored` if not.
+- **`cargo-machete` binary-distribution drift** → Mitigation: pin an explicit version in `taiki-e/install-action` (e.g., `cargo-machete@0.7.0` — exact pin chosen at implementation time). A machete release that changes flag semantics is an explicit version bump, not an implicit follow.
+- **Developer without machete installed runs the fast-gate** → Mitigation: `require_cargo_machete` emits `ERROR: cargo-machete missing. Run: cargo install cargo-machete` and exits 1. No confusing output, no silent pass, no attempt to auto-install.
+- **`verify` fast-gate time creep** → Mitigation: machete is sub-five-second on this crate. If future Rust expansion makes this too slow, move to `verify:full` only — but this is not expected.
+- **Cache mis-pin**: `Swatinem/rust-cache@v2` caches cargo home; `cargo-machete` installed via `taiki-e/install-action` may or may not land in the cached directory. Mitigation: `taiki-e/install-action` is fast enough that cache participation is unimportant; we do not rely on caching its binary.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+This is a purely additive change. No existing tier changes behavior, no public API moves, no consumer-visible surface. Rollback is revert-only (delete script, helper addition, CI job, package.json entries, Cargo.toml metadata, CLAUDE.md rows). No data, state, or artifact migration.
+
+Rollout order (matches the Tasks ordering):
+
+1. Script + helper land first (local runnable, no CI impact).
+2. Cargo.toml config surface added (still no CI impact).
+3. Composite orchestrator folded in (developers running `verify` now execute it; CI still unchanged).
+4. CI job added last (activates PR gate).
+5. CLAUDE.md updated alongside CI landing so agents and humans see the same tier in table and map.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- Exact pinned version of `cargo-machete` for `taiki-e/install-action` — selected at implementation time based on latest stable release.
+- Whether to emit a machete-specific CI annotation on failure (GitHub Actions `::error::` file pointer). Nice-to-have; not in initial scope.
+- Whether to add a developer-ergonomic `bun run fix:hygiene:rust` that runs `cargo machete --fix`. Not in initial scope; developers can run `cargo machete --fix` directly when needed.

+## Why
+
+The `packages/extract` Rust crate has 14 runtime dependencies plus one build dependency, and dependency rot is easy to miss in PR review — an `oxc_*` crate removed from code may linger in `Cargo.toml`, bloating the release binary and compile time. The repository already treats static verification as first-class (the `verify:*` tier family) but has no guard against unused Rust dependencies. Adding `cargo-machete` as a dedicated atomic tier closes this gap with a stable-rust, sub-five-second check that fits the existing fail-loud tier contract.
+
+This change also establishes the `verify:hygiene:*` tier family naming, paired with a separately-proposed TS counterpart (`verify:hygiene:ts` via `fallow-rs`) that warrants its own audit cycle because of the repo's dynamic-discovery surfaces (MDX, JSX, factory patterns). Splitting the proposals keeps the drop-in Rust hygiene landing immediately while the riskier TS side gets scoped carefully.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Add atomic tier `verify:hygiene:rust`**: new script `scripts/verify/hygiene-rust.sh` that sources `_preconditions.sh`, calls a new helper `require_cargo_machete`, and runs `cargo machete` against `packages/extract`. Detect-and-fail semantics; no auto-fix.
+- **Extend helper library**: add `require_cargo_machete` to `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` following the existing `require_*` contract (stderr error, exit 1, actionable install command).
+- **Register config surface**: add `[package.metadata.cargo-machete]` section to `packages/extract/Cargo.toml` so the `ignored` list exists as the suppression mechanism. Specific entries (if any) are a follow-on policy decision, not part of this capability.
+- **Update `verify:ci` composite orchestrator** to mirror the new CI job. The `verify` fast-gate composition is NOT modified — whether the new tier joins the fast gate is a policy decision for a follow-on change.
+- **Add CI job `hygiene-rust`**: parallel with the existing `test-rust` job in `.github/workflows/ci.yaml`, reusing `dtolnay/rust-toolchain@stable` + `Swatinem/rust-cache@v2`. Installs `cargo-machete` via `taiki-e/install-action@v2` with a pinned version for prebuilt-binary speed (no cold compile).
+- **Root CLAUDE.md updates**: add `verify:hygiene:rust` row to the Verification Tier Table, and add a Change-Type Map row mapping `packages/extract/Cargo.toml` edits to `verify:hygiene:rust`.
+- **Explicitly NOT included**: `cargo-udeps` (nightly overhead not justified for one crate), `cargo machete --fix` auto-remove in CI, fast-gate inclusion of the new tier (follow-on policy), specific `ignored` entries in the config (follow-on policy), any TS-side static analysis (separate sibling proposal), broader Rust lint additions (clippy, rustfmt enforcement).
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+_None._ This change extends an existing capability only.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `verification-tier-policy`: register a new atomic tier in the Atomic Tier Isolation tier list; extend the Shared Precondition Helper Library with `require_cargo_machete`; extend the Change-Type Map with a `Cargo.toml` row; extend `verify:ci` CI-Simulation Semantics to mirror the new CI job. The Composite Orchestrators requirement (which governs `verify` fast-gate composition) is NOT modified — that's a policy decision.
+
+## Follow-on policy changes (NOT in scope here)
+
+- `apply-rust-hygiene-fast-gate-inclusion`: evaluate measured runtime and fold `verify:hygiene:rust` into the `verify` fast-gate
+- `apply-rust-hygiene-suppressions`: populate `[package.metadata.cargo-machete].ignored` if first-run audit surfaces legitimate false positives (candidates: `napi-derive` proc-macro, `napi-build` build.rs-only)
+- `apply-rust-hygiene-changetype-augmentation`: if desired, augment the `packages/extract/Cargo.toml` Change-Type Map row to also trigger `verify:unit:rust`
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Code**:
+  - New: `scripts/verify/hygiene-rust.sh`
+  - Modified: `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` (add `require_cargo_machete`)
+  - Modified: `packages/extract/Cargo.toml` (add `[package.metadata.cargo-machete]`)
+  - Modified: `package.json` (register `verify:hygiene:rust` script; update `verify:ci` to mirror the new CI job)
+  - Modified: `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` (new `hygiene-rust` job)
+  - Modified: root `CLAUDE.md` (tier table + change-type map rows)
+- **APIs**: None. This is internal tooling only; no public surface changes.
+- **Dependencies**: adds `cargo-machete` as a dev-time CLI tool (CI pinned via `taiki-e/install-action`; local installation via `cargo install cargo-machete`, documented in the precondition's install-command message).
+- **Release surface**: zero. `cargo-machete` is not a build-time dep of the crate and does not ship in any published artifact.
+- **Developer experience**: a new atomic tier exists (`bun run verify:hygiene:rust`) and can be run on demand. `verify:ci` mirrors CI's new job. Whether the tier joins the `verify` fast-gate is a follow-on policy decision. First run on the current crate is expected to find zero unused deps (tool functions as a guard, not a cleanup mechanism).

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Atomic Tier Isolation
+
+Every atomic tier SHALL execute its single concern in isolation. An atomic tier MUST NOT silently trigger upstream builds. An atomic tier MUST begin with a shell precondition block that exits with a non-zero status and a human-readable instruction identifying the missing upstream artifact and the exact command to produce it.
+
+The atomic tiers defined by this policy are: `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:canary`, `verify:integration`, `verify:build:next`, `verify:build:showcase`, `verify:assert:next`, `verify:assert:showcase`, `verify:hygiene:rust`.
+
+Atomic tier preconditions SHALL be derived from the actual script each tier invokes (what the tier reads at runtime), not from generic "TS built" assumptions. In particular:
+
+- `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:hygiene:rust` have **no upstream artifact preconditions** — they operate on source. `verify:hygiene:rust` additionally requires the `cargo-machete` binary to be installed on PATH; this is a tool precondition, not an artifact precondition, and fails loud via `require_cargo_machete`.
+- `verify:unit:ts` operates on source via `bun test`'s on-the-fly transpilation — no `dist/` precondition.
+- `verify:canary` requires only a fresh NAPI binary; it does NOT require `packages/extract/dist/` or any other package's `dist/`.
+- `verify:integration` requires a fresh NAPI binary AND a fresh `packages/extract/dist/index.mjs` (mtime newer than `packages/extract/src/**`) AND a fresh `packages/system/dist/` (mtime newer than `packages/system/src/**`) — `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` and `@animus-ui/system` are both resolved via dist at test time.
+- `verify:build:next` requires a fresh NAPI binary AND fresh `packages/extract/dist/` AND fresh `packages/system/dist/` AND fresh `packages/next-plugin/dist/` (each mtime newer than its own package's `src/**`). The bundler invokes the Next plugin at build time and consumer code resolves `@animus-ui/system` through dist.
+- `verify:build:showcase` requires a fresh NAPI binary AND fresh `packages/extract/dist/` AND fresh `packages/system/dist/` AND fresh `packages/vite-plugin/dist/` AND fresh `packages/properties/dist/` (each mtime newer than its own package's `src/**`). The showcase resolves all four packages through dist.
+- `verify:assert:next` requires `e2e/next-app/.next/` build output.
+- `verify:assert:showcase` requires `packages/showcase/dist/` build output.
+
+For any tier that consumes a package's `dist/` at runtime, the precondition SHALL check BOTH existence AND freshness (mtime comparison against that package's `src/**`). An existence-only check that accepts a stale dist SHALL be treated as incorrect — it will silently pass tiers against outdated types or code.
+
+#### Scenario: Missing NAPI binary surfaces as precondition failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:canary` with no `packages/extract/*.node` file present
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr includes the exact message "ERROR: NAPI binary missing. Run: bun run build:extract" (or equivalent identifying the required upstream command)
+
+#### Scenario: Stale NAPI binary surfaces as precondition failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:canary` with a `.node` file older than the newest `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` source file
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr identifies the binary as stale and includes the command `bun run build:extract`
+
+#### Scenario: Present upstream artifact allows tier to run
+
+- **WHEN** the fresh NAPI binary is present
+- **AND** the developer runs `verify:canary`
+- **THEN** the canary tests execute without any build step being re-run by the tier itself
+
+#### Scenario: Tier does not rebuild upstream silently
+
+- **WHEN** `verify:integration` is invoked with `packages/extract/dist/` missing
+- **THEN** the tier exits with a precondition failure identifying `bun run build:ts` (or `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build:ts`) as the required upstream
+- **AND** the tier does NOT invoke the build itself
+
+#### Scenario: Source-reading tier has no artifact precondition
+
+- **WHEN** `verify:compile` or `verify:types` or `verify:unit:ts` runs
+- **THEN** the tier does NOT fail on missing `dist/` artifacts (because it reads source, not `dist/`)
+- **AND** any precondition the script emits is limited to actual runtime inputs (e.g., `bun install` has been run)
+
+#### Scenario: Stale consumer-facing package dist surfaces as precondition failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:build:next` with `packages/system/dist/index.d.ts` older than `packages/system/src/**` source files
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr identifies `packages/system/dist/` as stale and includes the command `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts`
+- **AND** the Next build does NOT run against the stale dist
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-dependency staleness check short-circuits on first failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:build:showcase` with BOTH `packages/system/dist/` and `packages/vite-plugin/dist/` stale
+- **THEN** the script exits 1 at the first stale-dist check it encounters
+- **AND** stderr identifies the first-detected stale package (either one, but only one)
+- **AND** the showcase build does NOT run
+
+#### Scenario: Missing cargo-machete binary surfaces as tool precondition failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:hygiene:rust` with no `cargo-machete` binary on PATH
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr includes the exact message "ERROR: cargo-machete missing. Run: cargo install cargo-machete"
+
+#### Scenario: Hygiene tier does not require any built artifact
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:hygiene:rust` with no NAPI binary and no package `dist/` directories present
+- **AND** `cargo-machete` is installed
+- **THEN** the tier runs to completion (source + Cargo.toml is all it reads)
+- **AND** no build of any kind is triggered
+
+### Requirement: Shared Precondition Helper Library
+
+A shared shell helper SHALL exist at `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` and SHALL be the single authoritative implementation of all atomic-tier precondition checks. Every atomic tier script SHALL source this helper and invoke named helper functions rather than inline precondition logic. Duplication of precondition logic across atomic tier scripts SHALL NOT exist once this helper is in place.
+
+The helper SHALL export at minimum these composable shell functions:
+
+- `require_bun_install` — checks that `node_modules/.bin/tsc` exists; on failure emits "ERROR: tsc binary not found at node_modules/.bin/tsc. Run: bun install" and exits 1.
+- `require_fresh_napi` — checks `packages/extract/*.node` existence AND mtime newer than every `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` source file; on failure emits the appropriate missing/stale message with fix command `bun run build:extract`.
+- `require_fresh_package_dist <pkg>` — checks the key dist artifact existence AND mtime freshness for the named workspace package; on failure emits the appropriate missing/stale message with fix command `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/<pkg>' build:ts`.
+- `require_dir <path> <fix_command>` — checks that `<path>` exists; on failure emits "ERROR: <path> missing. Run: <fix_command>" and exits 1.
+- `require_cargo_machete` — checks that the `cargo-machete` binary is available on PATH (e.g., via `command -v cargo-machete`); on failure emits "ERROR: cargo-machete missing. Run: cargo install cargo-machete" and exits 1.
+
+All helper functions SHALL emit errors to stderr and return exit code 1 on failure. The helper SHALL be sourced (not spawned as a subprocess) so the calling tier script inherits exit semantics. The helper SHALL have `set -euo pipefail`-compatible behavior — i.e., not rely on side effects that the caller's strict-mode settings would prevent.
+
+When this Requirement is implemented, the following existing tier scripts MUST be rewritten to call helper functions instead of containing inline precondition logic: `scripts/verify/canary.sh`, `scripts/verify/integration.sh`, `scripts/verify/build-next.sh`, `scripts/verify/build-showcase.sh`, `scripts/verify/assert-next.sh`, `scripts/verify/assert-showcase.sh`, `scripts/verify/compile.sh`, `scripts/verify/types.sh`. Source-only tier scripts (`verify:lint`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:hygiene:rust`) MAY source the helper for consistency even if they currently require no precondition calls. `scripts/verify/hygiene-rust.sh` MUST source the helper and invoke `require_cargo_machete`.
+
+#### Scenario: Tier script sources the helper
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer inspects any atomic tier script under `scripts/verify/`
+- **THEN** the script includes `source "$ROOT/scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh"` near the top
+- **AND** all precondition logic is expressed as `require_*` function calls
+- **AND** no inline `ls packages/extract/*.node` / `find -newer` patterns appear in the tier script itself
+
+#### Scenario: Helper is the one authoritative implementation
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer greps `scripts/verify/*.sh` for inline `find -newer` patterns
+- **THEN** matches appear only within `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` — never in an individual tier script
+
+#### Scenario: Helper function emits actionable error message
+
+- **WHEN** `require_fresh_package_dist system` is called and `packages/system/dist/` is stale
+- **THEN** stderr contains a line matching "ERROR: packages/system/dist/ is stale (src newer than dist). Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts"
+- **AND** the calling script exits with status 1
+
+#### Scenario: Helper handles NAPI package specialization
+
+- **WHEN** `require_fresh_napi` is invoked and the NAPI binary is stale relative to Rust source
+- **THEN** the emitted error message uses the command `bun run build:extract` (not `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build:ts`)
+- **AND** the script exits with status 1
+
+#### Scenario: Helper detects missing cargo-machete binary
+
+- **WHEN** `require_cargo_machete` is invoked and `command -v cargo-machete` returns non-zero
+- **THEN** stderr contains the line "ERROR: cargo-machete missing. Run: cargo install cargo-machete"
+- **AND** the calling script exits with status 1
+
+### Requirement: Change-Type Map
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL contain a Change-Type Map: a table with the columns `You changed` (an edit-surface description, e.g., a path glob or behavior) and `Run` (the minimum verification-tier set to run for that change). The map MUST contain 12 canonical rows covering the primary edit surfaces of the repository, plus a sidebar note covering non-verify edit surfaces.
+
+Rows SHALL be added when a new top-level edit surface (e.g., a new publishable package, a new `e2e/*` fixture) is introduced.
+
+The canonical rows:
+
+| You changed | Run |
+|---|---|
+| `packages/system/src/**` | `verify:compile && verify:types && verify:unit:ts` |
+| `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` | `verify:unit:rust && verify:canary && verify:integration` |
+| `packages/extract/src/**/*.ts` (NAPI TS binding / pipeline) | `verify:canary && verify:integration` |
+| `packages/extract/Cargo.toml` | `verify:hygiene:rust` |
+| `packages/vite-plugin/src/**` | `verify:compile && verify:integration && verify:showcase` |
+| `packages/next-plugin/src/**` | `verify:compile && verify:next` |
+| `packages/showcase/src/**` (code; MDX content excluded — see sidebar) | `verify:showcase` |
+| `packages/properties/src/**` | `verify:compile && verify:unit:ts` |
+| `packages/_integration/__tests__/**` | `verify:integration` |
+| `packages/test-ds/src/**` | `verify:unit:ts && verify:next && verify:showcase` |
+| `.github/workflows/ci.yaml`, `scripts/**`, `.tool-versions` | `verify:ci` |
+| Broad refactor across multiple surfaces | `verify:full` |
+
+Sidebar — **no verify tier required**: `openspec/**` (run `openspec validate` instead), MDX content under `packages/showcase/src/content/**`, root markdown (`CLAUDE.md`, `README.md`, `docs/**`).
+
+The Change-Type Map SHALL be the authoritative instructability surface for agents selecting minimum verification for a narrow change.
+
+#### Scenario: Agent selects verification set from the map
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only `packages/system/src/**`
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map in root `CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** the agent runs `verify:compile && verify:types && verify:unit:ts`
+- **AND** does not run unrelated tiers such as `verify:build:next`
+
+#### Scenario: OpenSpec edit does not trigger verify
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only files under `openspec/`
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map sidebar
+- **THEN** the agent runs `openspec validate` only
+- **AND** does not invoke any `verify:*` tier
+
+#### Scenario: MDX content edit does not trigger verify
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only MDX files under `packages/showcase/src/content/**`
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map sidebar
+- **THEN** no `verify:*` tier is required
+
+#### Scenario: Cargo.toml edit triggers hygiene tier
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only `packages/extract/Cargo.toml`
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map
+- **THEN** the agent runs `verify:hygiene:rust`
+- **AND** does not need to run other tiers unless `.rs` sources also changed
+
+#### Scenario: New edit surface requires a map row
+
+- **WHEN** a change introduces a new publishable package or a new top-level edit surface
+- **THEN** the same change MUST add a corresponding row to the Change-Type Map
+
+### Requirement: verify:ci CI-Simulation Semantics
+
+`verify:ci` SHALL reproduce the CI workflow's job set and execution order locally on a best-effort basis. It MUST run the same command sequence as CI jobs `lint`, `test-rust`, `hygiene-rust`, `build-extract`, and `verify` (in that order). It MUST invoke `bun run build:extract` and `bun run build:ts` inline (CI materializes these artifacts before verify). It MUST include `verify:integration` and `verify:build:showcase` + `verify:assert:showcase` (CI runs both).
+
+It MUST NOT attempt runner-OS parity, matrix-target multiplicity (CI builds 3 platform binaries; local builds 1), or release-gated steps.
+
+If CI workflow ordering or coverage changes, `verify:ci` MUST be updated in the same change that modifies `ci.yaml`.
+
+#### Scenario: CI ordering matches locally
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:ci`
+- **THEN** lint runs first, then Rust unit tests, then Rust hygiene, then `bun run build:extract`, then `bun run build:ts`, then the verify-equivalent tiers including integration and showcase assert
+
+#### Scenario: CI workflow edit keeps verify:ci in sync
+
+- **WHEN** a change modifies `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` job ordering or commands
+- **THEN** the same change modifies the `verify:ci` script to match
+
+#### Scenario: hygiene-rust parallel in CI maps to sequential locally
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:ci`
+- **THEN** `verify:hygiene:rust` executes sequentially (local parallelism is not a requirement)
+- **AND** a machete failure surfaces before the build-extract step runs
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Rust Dependency Hygiene Capability
+
+The `verify:hygiene:rust` atomic tier SHALL invoke `cargo-machete` against `packages/extract` and SHALL exit with a non-zero status if `cargo-machete` reports any unused dependency. The tier SHALL invoke the detection pass only; `cargo machete --fix` SHALL NOT be invoked by any `verify:*` tier or composite orchestrator.
+
+The tier SHALL expose `cargo-machete`'s native suppression surface — the `[package.metadata.cargo-machete]` section in `packages/extract/Cargo.toml` with its `ignored = [...]` list — as the mechanism available for declaring false-positive suppressions. The specific contents of `ignored` (which crates are listed, what annotations accompany them) SHALL be determined by a separate policy change and are NOT specified by this capability.
+
+CI SHALL expose the tier as a standalone job parallel with the existing Rust jobs. The specific install mechanism for `cargo-machete` in CI (prebuilt-binary action, compile-from-source, cache warmup) is an implementation detail.
+
+#### Scenario: Unused dependency fails the tier
+
+- **WHEN** a contributor adds `foo = "1.0"` to `[dependencies]` in `packages/extract/Cargo.toml`
+- **AND** no `use foo` or equivalent reference appears in `packages/extract/src/**`
+- **AND** `verify:hygiene:rust` runs
+- **THEN** the tier exits with status 1
+- **AND** stderr identifies `foo` as unused
+
+#### Scenario: Legitimately used dependency passes the tier
+
+- **WHEN** every dependency in `[dependencies]` and `[build-dependencies]` is referenced in source (directly or via a `[package.metadata.cargo-machete].ignored` entry)
+- **AND** `verify:hygiene:rust` runs
+- **THEN** the tier exits with status 0
+- **AND** no output indicates any issue
+
+#### Scenario: Suppression mechanism is available
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer needs to suppress a false-positive finding on a specific crate
+- **THEN** they add the crate name to the `[package.metadata.cargo-machete].ignored` list in `packages/extract/Cargo.toml`
+- **AND** the tier re-run ceases to flag that crate
+
+#### Scenario: CI job runs in parallel with test-rust
+
+- **WHEN** a PR triggers the CI workflow
+- **THEN** the `hygiene-rust` job runs in parallel with the `test-rust` job
+- **AND** both share the `dtolnay/rust-toolchain@stable` + `Swatinem/rust-cache@v2` setup pattern
+- **AND** `cargo-machete` is available on the job's PATH before the tier is invoked (e.g., via `taiki-e/install-action@v2` with a pinned tool version, or equivalent)
+
+#### Scenario: Auto-fix is not invoked by any verify tier
+
+- **WHEN** any composite orchestrator (`verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:ci`) runs
+- **THEN** the hygiene tier runs without `--fix`
+- **AND** no Cargo.toml edit occurs as a side effect of verification

+## 1. Precondition Helper Extension
+
+- [x] 1.1 Add `require_cargo_machete` function to `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` following the existing `require_*` pattern: `command -v cargo-machete >/dev/null 2>&1` check, on failure emit `ERROR: cargo-machete missing. Run: cargo install cargo-machete` to stderr and exit 1.
+- [x] 1.2 Confirm the helper remains `set -euo pipefail`-compatible (no side effects that strict mode would trip on).
+
+## 2. Hygiene Tier Script
+
+- [x] 2.1 Create `scripts/verify/hygiene-rust.sh` with `#!/usr/bin/env bash` + `set -euo pipefail`, compute `ROOT` the same way the other tier scripts do, source `_preconditions.sh`, call `require_cargo_machete`, then `cd "$ROOT/packages/extract" && exec cargo machete`.
+- [x] 2.2 `chmod +x scripts/verify/hygiene-rust.sh`.
+- [x] 2.3 Smoke-run locally: `bash scripts/verify/hygiene-rust.sh`. Capture output (expected: either "no unused deps" success, or a specific list — record the list for task group 4).
+
+## 3. Cargo Config Surface
+
+- [x] 3.1 Add `[package.metadata.cargo-machete]` section to `packages/extract/Cargo.toml` with an empty `ignored = []` list, so the suppression mechanism exists. (What goes IN the list, if anything, is a follow-on policy decision not covered by this change.)
+- [x] 3.2 Re-run `bash scripts/verify/hygiene-rust.sh` against the current crate. If the tier exits non-zero because machete flags `napi-derive` / `napi-build` / `once_cell` / any other genuinely-used-but-statically-invisible crate, stop here and hand off to a follow-on policy change — the capability is installed and the follow-on decides suppressions. If the tier exits 0, no further action needed in this group.
+
+## 4. Package Script Registration
+
+- [x] 4.1 Add `"verify:hygiene:rust": "bash scripts/verify/hygiene-rust.sh"` to the `scripts` block of root `package.json`, positioned near `verify:unit:rust` for readability.
+- [x] 4.2 Update the `verify:ci` composite orchestrator in `package.json` to invoke `verify:hygiene:rust` in the CI-mirroring sequence (since CI gains a `hygiene-rust` job in group 5). Do NOT modify the `verify` fast-gate composition — whether to include `verify:hygiene:rust` in the fast gate is a separate policy decision.
+- [x] 4.3 Run `bun run verify:hygiene:rust` locally and confirm the tier executes and passes on the current crate.
+
+## 5. CI Workflow Wiring
+
+- [x] 5.1 Pick the pinned `cargo-machete` version for `taiki-e/install-action` (latest stable release at implementation time). Record the version in the workflow step comment.
+- [x] 5.2 Add new `hygiene-rust` job to `.github/workflows/ci.yaml`, positioned below `test-rust`. Use the same `runs-on: ubuntu-latest`, `actions/checkout@v4`, `dtolnay/rust-toolchain@stable`, and `Swatinem/rust-cache@v2 { workspaces: packages/extract }` setup as `test-rust`.
+- [x] 5.3 Install `cargo-machete` via `taiki-e/install-action@v2` with `tool: cargo-machete@<pinned-version>`.
+- [x] 5.4 Add the run step: `working-directory: packages/extract`, `run: cargo machete`.
+- [x] 5.5 Verify that `hygiene-rust` does NOT appear in the `needs:` list of any other job (it is a standalone parallel job; the `verify` job currently depends on `[build-extract, test-rust]` and SHOULD NOT gain a new dependency from this change — the fast-gate tier locally covers that responsibility).
+
+## 6. Root CLAUDE.md Updates
+
+- [x] 6.1 Add a new row to the Verification Tiers → Atomic Tiers table: `| bun run verify:hygiene:rust | cargo-machete dep-hygiene check on packages/extract | cargo-machete binary on PATH | unused dep found (or machete missing) | fast |`.
+- [x] 6.2 Add a new Change-Type Map row: `| packages/extract/Cargo.toml | verify:hygiene:rust |`. Place it immediately below the existing `packages/extract/src/**/*.ts` row.
+- [x] 6.3 Confirm no CLAUDE.md-level duplication of the tier table leaks into per-package CLAUDE.md files (per the existing spec requirement that package-level files link back).
+
+## 7. Cross-Change Alignment with add-ts-static-analysis
+
+- [x] 7.1 **Bidirectional MODIFIED re-sync.** Both this change and `add-ts-static-analysis` MODIFY the same four requirements in `verification-tier-policy` (Atomic Tier Isolation, Shared Precondition Helper Library, Change-Type Map, `verify:ci` CI-Simulation Semantics). OpenSpec MODIFIED semantics replace the full block. Before this change archives, confirm the TS change's archive state and re-sync this change's MODIFIED blocks to preserve any TS-landed additions. Either change's archive-order must not erase the other's content.
+- [x] 7.2 Confirm `_preconditions.sh` helper function names do not collide (`require_cargo_machete` vs `require_fallow_binary`).
+- [x] 7.3 Confirm this change does NOT augment any Change-Type Map row beyond adding the `Cargo.toml` row at value `verify:hygiene:rust`. Augmentation to include `verify:unit:rust` on the same row is a policy decision deferred to `apply-rust-hygiene-changetype-augmentation`.
+
+## 8. Validation
+
+- [x] 8.1 Run `openspec validate add-rust-dep-hygiene --strict` and confirm clean.
+- [x] 8.2 Run `bun run verify:hygiene:rust` locally; confirm it passes on the current crate.
+- [x] 8.3 Induce a synthetic failure: temporarily add `unused_dep = "1"` to `[dependencies]` in `packages/extract/Cargo.toml`, run `bun run verify:hygiene:rust`, confirm exit 1 and `unused_dep` named in output, then revert the synthetic entry.
+- [x] 8.4 Induce a tool-missing failure: on a machine without `cargo-machete`, run `bash scripts/verify/hygiene-rust.sh`, confirm the exact error message "ERROR: cargo-machete missing. Run: cargo install cargo-machete" and exit 1. (If implementing on a machine with machete already installed, temporarily rename the binary or prepend a PATH override to simulate.)
+- [ ] 8.5 Push a CI preview branch; confirm `hygiene-rust` job appears in the Actions tab, runs parallel with `test-rust`, and exits 0 on the untouched crate. _(skipped 2026-04-27 — CI job is wired with pinned `cargo-machete@0.9.2` and is structurally identical to the working `test-rust` job; preview run not exercised this session.)_
+- [x] 8.6 Confirm the Change-Type Map row for `packages/extract/Cargo.toml` resolves to the expected tier (`verify:hygiene:rust`) and that a no-op Cargo.toml edit exercised against that tier passes.

+## Context
+
+MDX files are first-class consumers of ds-built components in the showcase (and, by extension, in any consumer who adopts MDX for content-heavy surfaces). The file-discovery walk in both bundler adapters (`vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`) is a filesystem scan that selects files by extension — `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS = {.ts, .tsx, .js, .jsx}` today. MDX sources are outside the set, so their JSX references never reach the scanner.
+
+The plugin lifecycle today:
+
+```
+Filesystem walk (DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS) ─────▶ JSX scanner parses source ─────▶ usage ledger ─────▶ reconciler
+    (.ts/.tsx/.js/.jsx only)                     (OXC parse)                                     (eliminate unrendered)
+```
+
+`.mdx` files go through vite's `@mdx-js/rollup` plugin at transform time — AFTER the extractor's buildStart completes. By the time MDX is JSX-compiled in the bundler, the animus pipeline has already produced its manifest based on a ledger that never saw MDX renderings.
+
+**Confirmed state at this change's proposal time:**
+
+- `packages/showcase/src/components/docs/MetricCard.tsx:7` exports `MetricGrid`.
+- 2 files render `<MetricGrid>` — both `.mdx` (`introduction.mdx:15`, `component-test.mdx:302`).
+- 0 `.tsx`/`.jsx`/`.js`/`.ts` files render or reference `<MetricGrid>`.
+- `packages/showcase/dist/assets/styles-np2ZI_63.css` contains 0 `animus-MetricGrid*` rules after fresh `bun run clean:full && bun run verify:build:showcase`.
+- `packages/next-plugin/src/plugin.ts:679` has the identical hardcoded extension set — same bug lives in both adapters.
+
+**What the prior-arc Phase 4 contract reveals here:**
+
+Post-Phase-4, the dev-mode manifest surfaces `kind: "prospective_component"` entries for components that would be eliminated in build mode. Running showcase in dev (or reading the dev-mode manifest) SHOULD show a prospective entry for MetricGrid. That diagnostic is the authoring-time signal that this proposal converts into a proper fix. Without Phase 4's observability, this gap would have stayed silent.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- `<MetricGrid>` in MDX counted as a valid render usage by the usage ledger — parity with `<MetricGrid>` in `.tsx`.
+- Both `vite-plugin` and `next-plugin` discovery walks pick up `.mdx` files.
+- Scanner-consumable form (JSX region extracted from MDX) reaches the existing OXC-based parse pipeline unchanged.
+- A permanent integration fixture exercises `.tsx`-defined + `.mdx`-rendered.
+- Showcase dist contains `animus-MetricGrid*` rules in build mode AND no prospective-elimination warning fires for MetricGrid in dev mode.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Scanner semantic changes — JSX element recognition, member-expression recognition, `createElement` recognition all stay the same.
+- MDX content-rendering path — the bundler's own MDX plugin still owns the actual runtime rendering; this change only makes the extractor see the authoring references.
+- MDX-provider-based component substitution (e.g. `MDXProvider` passing `{ h1: Heading }`) — indirect references through the provider API are NOT direct `<Component>` tags and are scope-expanded if/when they surface as a regression.
+- Other source formats (.vue, .svelte, .astro, etc.) — follow-on.
+- Code-splitting or on-demand MDX extraction — the scanner processes MDX alongside everything else in buildStart.
+- Changing the bundler-pipeline ordering — vite's `@mdx-js/rollup` transform remains as-is; this change operates IN PARALLEL, not in place of.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### D1 — Resolution strategy: plugin-side MDX→JSX pre-processor + consumer-configurable extensions list with sensible defaults
+
+**Decision:** Two paired decisions land together:
+
+1. Each bundler adapter SHALL run non-native-JSX files (today: `.mdx`) through a minimal preprocessor BEFORE handing them to the scanner. The preprocessor strips markdown content and extracts the JSX regions, producing a `.tsx`-equivalent source string that the existing scanner consumes unchanged. Implementation uses `@mdx-js/mdx`'s `compile()` API.
+2. The extension list SHALL be exposed as a plugin config option (`extensions?: string[]`) on BOTH `AnimusExtractOptions` (vite-plugin) AND `AnimusNextOptions` (next-plugin). Default is `['.ts', '.tsx', '.js', '.jsx', '.mdx']` — exported as a single `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` constant from the shared preprocessor module so both plugins import the same source of truth. Consumers can override (e.g. drop `.mdx` for zero install-footprint, or add `.md` for markdown-JSX variants), but the default IS the fix.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+
+- **A) Teach the scanner MDX-aware parsing.** Rejected. OXC parses JSX syntax; MDX is a superset with markdown. Teaching the scanner MDX semantics doubles its surface area and couples it to an unrelated format. Pre-processing keeps the scanner format-agnostic.
+- **B) Hook into vite's transform pipeline output.** Rejected for two reasons: (1) violates the adapter-parity goal — next-plugin doesn't use vite's MDX transform, so we'd need two completely different implementations; (2) couples animus's scanner ordering to the bundler's plugin ordering — fragile against plugin reordering by consumers.
+- **C) Hardcode `.mdx` into an internal extensions Set — NO config option.** Rejected (this was the prior draft direction; peer-reviewed and flipped). The API surface is literally one optional config field with a sensible default; hardcoding would force a proposal+release for every future `.vue`/`.svelte`/`.astro` request. Configurable-with-default is not premature generalization — it's the natural shape.
+- **D) Defer to future bundler-level virtual module magic.** Rejected. Unclear, not grounded in any concrete approach.
+
+**Consequence:** `@mdx-js/mdx` becomes a peer-dep-optional of both plugins (see D5). The preprocessor lives in `packages/extract/pipeline/mdx-preprocessor.ts` (see D2). The `extensions?: string[]` field is added to both plugin options interfaces; both plugins replace their current hardcoded extension Set with `new Set(options.extensions ?? DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS)`.
+
+### D2 — Shared code location: `packages/extract/pipeline/mdx-preprocessor.ts`
+
+**Decision:** Land in `packages/extract/pipeline/`. The candidate `packages/_plugin-shared/` workspace is rejected.
+
+**Evidence flipping the earlier open-two-candidates framing:** the "pipeline is post-NAPI only" framing in the prior design draft was factually wrong. `packages/extract/pipeline/discover-packages.ts` is explicitly pre-NAPI (file-graph work executed before `analyzeProject` runs). The pipeline surface already hosts mixed pre-NAPI and post-NAPI helpers: `applyUnitFallback`, `assembleStylesheet`, `extractSystemFilePackages`, `stripLeadingLayerDeclaration`, `validateLayerOrder`, `resolveTransformPlaceholders`, `resolve-global-styles`, `discover-packages`. Adding `mdx-preprocessor.ts` is consistent with the existing surface, not an expansion of it.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+
+- **`packages/_plugin-shared/` (new workspace).** Rejected. A single-helper private workspace fails the `_assertions`/`_integration` bar (those have ≥4 modules AND serve ≥2 consumer tiers). One module is not enough to justify a workspace; the root `package.json` workspaces-array entry, the CI install-cycle addition, and the new `workspace:*` edges for both plugins are all cost with no compensating structural benefit.
+- **Inline copies per plugin.** Rejected. Guaranteed drift, doubles surface area, and breaks the shared `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` constant invariant from D1.
+- **NPM dep on `@mdx-js/mdx` in each plugin directly + duplicate compile-to-JSX logic.** Rejected — the "compile-to-JSX" logic is identical; extracting it as a single helper is trivial.
+
+**Consequence:** The preprocessor module is added to `packages/extract/pipeline/mdx-preprocessor.ts` and exported via the existing `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` entry. Both plugins consume it via their existing `@animus-ui/extract` workspace dep — zero new edges in the dep graph. The shared `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` constant (see D1) lives in the same module. Root `CLAUDE.md` Change-Type Map row `packages/extract/src/**/*.ts (NAPI TS binding / pipeline)` expands to `packages/extract/{src,pipeline}/**/*.ts` to cover the new edit surface (task captured in Phase 4).
+
+### D3 — Spec delta scope
+
+**Decision:** Add scenarios to BOTH `jsx-system-prop-scanner` (the input-set contract) AND `vite-extraction-plugin` (the file-discovery contract). The next-plugin-side parity requirement is captured by extending these two contracts because next-plugin currently has no dedicated spec for its file discovery (the scanner spec covers the semantic contract; the plugin-level file walk is an implementation detail).
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+
+- **Single spec delta in `jsx-system-prop-scanner` only.** Rejected. The input-set expansion is a file-discovery concern, not a scanner-semantics concern — the scanner's contract is unchanged for what JSX it recognizes.
+- **Create a new capability `mdx-file-discovery`.** Rejected. A capability-per-file-type would fragment specs against file-format axes. Extension set lives more naturally as a modifier on the existing file-discovery contract.
+
+### D4 — Diagnostic on MDX pre-processing failure
+
+**Decision:** If the MDX pre-processor throws on a specific file, the plugin SHALL emit an `[animus] ⚠ MDX preprocessing failed for <file>: <error>` warning and continue the build with that file excluded from the scanner's input. Same prefix as existing elimination warnings for grep-filterability.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+
+- **Fail hard on MDX preprocessing error.** Rejected. A single malformed MDX file shouldn't break the entire build's extraction — consistent with the prior-arc "warn + continue" diagnostic pattern.
+- **Silent skip.** Rejected. Silent failures are the bug class this entire extractor stack explicitly fights against (see Phase 4 dev/build parity).
+
+### D5 — `@mdx-js/mdx` as peer-dep-optional, gated by dynamic import
+
+**Decision:** Both `@animus-ui/vite-plugin` and `@animus-ui/next-plugin` declare `@mdx-js/mdx` in `peerDependencies` (range `^3.0.0` to match `@mdx-js/rollup@3.1.1` already transitive via showcase) AND in `peerDependenciesMeta: { "@mdx-js/mdx": { optional: true } }`. The preprocessor module in `packages/extract/pipeline/` loads it via `await import('@mdx-js/mdx').catch(() => null)`; if the module is absent AND a consumer has `.mdx` in their `extensions`, the plugin emits a one-shot warning at buildStart (`[animus] ⚠ .mdx in extensions but @mdx-js/mdx not installed; MDX files skipped`) and continues. If `.mdx` is NOT in `extensions`, the dynamic import never fires.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+
+- **Hard direct dep on both plugins.** Rejected. Consumers who don't author MDX would carry `@mdx-js/mdx` + ~15 transitive deps (`unified`, `remark-*`, `mdast-*`, `micromark`, `vfile`) for zero runtime benefit.
+- **Peer-dep-required (non-optional).** Rejected. Forces every consumer to install `@mdx-js/mdx` even if they never author MDX — same footprint problem, now with a harder install-time error instead of a graceful skip.
+- **Lazy-load only on file discovery.** Same as chosen decision — this IS what dynamic-import-with-catch achieves.
+
+**Consequence:** Non-MDX consumers pay zero install cost. MDX consumers who already use `@mdx-js/rollup` or `@next/mdx` get `@mdx-js/mdx` hoisted for free (lockfile confirms transitive availability in showcase today). The `peerDependenciesMeta.optional` flag is supported by npm/yarn/pnpm/bun uniformly.
+
+### D6 — Shared `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` constant exported from the preprocessor module
+
+**Decision:** `packages/extract/pipeline/mdx-preprocessor.ts` exports:
+
+```ts
+export const DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS = ['.ts', '.tsx', '.js', '.jsx', '.mdx'] as const;
+export type DefaultExtension = (typeof DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS)[number];
+export async function preprocessMdx(source: string, filename: string): Promise<string | null>;
+```
+
+Both plugins import `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` directly and apply it as the fallback for `options.extensions`. Adapter parity becomes a structural invariant — if one plugin drifts (e.g. adds `.astro` locally), it fails either the shared-type contract or the config-option signature check. This closes the "CI enforceable invariant" gap flagged in reviewer synthesis.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+
+- **Each plugin keeps its own `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` Set.** Rejected — drift-by-default. Prior state already has 3 separate hardcoded copies (vite-plugin index.ts:79 + :1123 + next-plugin plugin.ts:679) — this change consolidates.
+- **Re-export from a different module (e.g. `packages/extract/pipeline/index.ts`).** Acceptable but less cohesive. Colocating with the preprocessor makes the dep graph obvious: anyone touching the extension list sees the preprocessor alongside and remembers that `.mdx` needs preprocessing.
+
+**Consequence:** Both plugins `import { DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS, preprocessMdx } from '@animus-ui/extract/pipeline'`. The two current DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS call-sites in vite-plugin (index.ts:115 discovery walk + index.ts:1123 HMR filter) consume `options.extensions ?? DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` (converted to Set). Same pattern in next-plugin at plugin.ts:679.
+
+### D7 — Primary bug-coverage tier: TS unit tests in plugin packages, not the integration harness
+
+**Decision:** The primary test tier for the hardcoded-extension-list bug is a new `packages/vite-plugin/tests/file-discovery.test.ts` + `packages/next-plugin/tests/file-discovery.test.ts` pair. Each test invokes the plugin's `discoverFiles` function against a fixture directory containing `.mdx` files and asserts that `.mdx` files appear in the returned list (after config-propagated `options.extensions ?? DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` flows through). The `_integration` fixture remains as an end-to-end smoke proof that an MDX-only-rendered component actually reaches the dist CSS, but it is NOT the primary bug-surface coverage.
+
+**Rationale:** The bug lives at the file-walk layer — hardcoded `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` in each plugin. A test that hand-synthesizes preprocessor output and hands it to `runPipeline` never exercises the file-walk. Only a test that drives the plugin's own discovery function against a real directory tree can regression-guard against the hardcode being reintroduced. Six months from now, if someone "simplifies" the plugin and inlines the extensions Set again, the unit tier fails; the integration tier wouldn't notice.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+
+- **Integration test only (prior draft).** Rejected per reviewer feedback — tests the preprocessor in isolation, not the discovery walk.
+- **Rust-side unit test.** Rejected — the discovery walk is TypeScript plugin code, not Rust.
+- **E2e-only (next-app / vite-app builds).** Too slow for inner-loop; appropriate as a secondary guard but not primary.
+
+**Consequence:** Phase 0 includes authoring both unit tests (as paired seal/acceptance per the established D3 pattern from fix-selector-rule-extraction). Each plugin package gains a `tests/` directory if absent. The `verify:unit:ts` tier now covers the file-discovery contract.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+| Risk | Mitigation |
+|---|---|
+| `@mdx-js/mdx`'s `compile()` output format differs between versions and breaks our pre-processor's JSX extraction | Peer-dep range `^3.0.0` (matching transitive `@mdx-js/rollup@3.1.1` already in showcase lockfile); verify compatibility in CI; surface version on pre-processing-error warning text. |
+| MDX files contain JSX that relies on MDX-provider-supplied components (e.g. `<h1>` mapped to `Heading` via `<MDXProvider components={{ h1: Heading }}>`) — scanner sees `<h1>` but not the rendered mapping | Explicitly out of scope per proposal. Document the limitation in `jsx-system-prop-scanner` CLAUDE notes. If this becomes a user-visible gap (e.g. `Heading` silently eliminated despite MDX usage), scope a follow-on. |
+| Consumer drops `.mdx` from `extensions` but still has `.mdx` files rendering ds components — silent regression | The preprocessor's dynamic import is gated on presence of `.mdx` in `options.extensions`. If consumer drops it, MDX files are correctly not walked; behavior is deterministic-by-config, not silent. Document in plugin README that MDX rendering requires `.mdx` in the extensions list. |
+| Consumer adds unknown extension (e.g. `.vue`) via config but no preprocessor handles it | Current scope: only `.mdx` has a preprocessor. Non-`.mdx` files in `extensions` go direct-to-scanner as if they were JSX — which will fail parse for `.vue`/`.svelte`/`.astro`. Document that consumer-added non-JSX extensions are consumer-responsible until a preprocessor registry lands (deferred follow-on). |
+| Primary bug-coverage test tier mismatch (integration test covers the preprocessor but not the discovery walk — reviewer B5) | D7 addresses: primary tier is TS unit tests at `packages/vite-plugin/tests/file-discovery.test.ts` + next-plugin sibling. Integration tier remains as end-to-end smoke. |
+| Pre-processor extracts JSX regions but loses source-position fidelity for JSX scanner's error reporting | Source maps from `@mdx-js/mdx`'s `compile()` should suffice. Validate in Phase 1 that scanner error reporting still produces usable file:line on an MDX syntax error. |
+| Rebuild-step omission between source edits and downstream `verify:*` tiers causes fail-loud failures (reviewer B8) | Tasks.md Phase 1/2 explicitly interleave `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/<plugin>' build:ts` before any `verify:showcase`/`verify:vite`/`verify:next`. Same for `_integration` dep on `@mdx-js/mdx` (reviewer B7+T4) — captured as task. |
+| `verify:build:next` CI run requires next-plugin's MDX handling to work with next's own MDX infrastructure — adapter-level tests may uncover interactions | Run `verify:build:next` after next-plugin changes, paralleling the existing prior-arc Phase 4 validation approach. |
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+Behavioral-only change for consumers; new peer-dep-optional on `@mdx-js/mdx` for both plugin packages. Deploy per phase:
+
+1. **Phase 0** — Investigation gate. Author the minimized integration fixture (ds-built component rendered only from MDX) + primary bug-coverage TS unit tests in `packages/vite-plugin/tests/file-discovery.test.ts` + `packages/next-plugin/tests/file-discovery.test.ts` (paired seal/acceptance per D7). Confirm the regression reproduces in both tiers. Confirm the post-Phase-4 `prospective_component` diagnostic fires for MetricGrid in dev. Add `@mdx-js/mdx` dev-dep to `packages/_integration/package.json`. No runtime behavior change yet — seals pass, acceptances skip.
+2. **Phase 1** — Author the preprocessor + shared `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` constant in `packages/extract/pipeline/mdx-preprocessor.ts`. Add `extensions?: string[]` to `AnimusExtractOptions`. Replace both vite-plugin DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS call-sites (index.ts:79 discovery + index.ts:1123 HMR) with `new Set(options.extensions ?? DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS)`. Wire preprocessor invocation for `.mdx` files. Declare `@mdx-js/mdx` as peer-dep-optional. Rebuild vite-plugin dist. Verify showcase + vite-app builds extract the MDX-rendered component. Delete vite-plugin seal; unskip vite-plugin acceptance.
+3. **Phase 2** — Add `extensions?: string[]` to `AnimusNextOptions`. Replace next-plugin plugin.ts:679 inline Set with options-propagated equivalent. Wire preprocessor invocation parallel to vite-plugin. Declare peer-dep-optional. Rebuild next-plugin dist. Verify next-app builds extract MDX-rendered components. Delete next-plugin seal; unskip next-plugin acceptance.
+4. **Phase 3** — Seal/unseal integration fixture. Run `bun run clean:full && bun run build:all && bun run verify:full`. Audit `packages/showcase/dist/assets/styles-*.css` for `animus-MetricGrid*` rules (expected present post-fix). Scan for other MDX-only-rendered components that silently eliminated pre-fix.
+5. **Phase 4** — Documentation (plugin CLAUDE.md updates) + root CLAUDE.md Change-Type Map row expansion (`packages/extract/{src,pipeline}/**/*.ts`) + session memory update + archive.
+
+Each phase is an isolated commit; revert per-phase if post-land issues surface.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+**OQ1 — RESOLVED (D2):** `packages/extract/pipeline/mdx-preprocessor.ts`. Topology review surfaced that `packages/extract/pipeline/discover-packages.ts` is pre-NAPI, invalidating the "pipeline is post-NAPI only" framing from the prior draft. `_plugin-shared/` workspace rejected on single-helper bloat.
+
+**OQ2 — MDX-provider-mapped components (e.g. `<h1>` → Heading via MDXProvider) — in scope or deferred?** Default: deferred (per proposal non-goals). Flag for scope re-evaluation if showcase or next-app reveal any OTHER component that's eliminated due to this subtler gap after THIS change lands.
+
+**OQ3 — Does next-plugin's MDX support (if any) differ semantically from vite's?** Next has its own MDX story (`@next/mdx`). The extractor's pre-processor is bundler-agnostic (just takes MDX source, returns JSX), but the ways MDX references flow at runtime may differ. Confirm via a minimum next-app MDX fixture in Phase 2.
+
+**OQ4 — RESOLVED (D1):** The extension set IS a plugin config option. User peer-override of the prior-draft's "hardcoded + configurable-deferred" framing — the API surface is one optional config field with a default that includes `.mdx`; hardcoding would force a proposal per future `.vue`/`.svelte`/`.astro` request.
+
+**OQ5 — Does adding MDX to discovery increase buildStart latency noticeably?** Measure pre/post in showcase + next-app during Phase 3. Data informs whether the default-on decision for `.mdx` needs revisiting. If overhead is non-trivial, consumers can opt-out via `extensions: ['.ts', '.tsx', '.js', '.jsx']`.
+
+**OQ6 — Does the same gap affect `.md` files that contain JSX through remark-jsx-style extensions?** Default: out of scope, `.mdx` only. Consumers can add `.md` via `options.extensions: ['.ts', '.tsx', '.js', '.jsx', '.mdx', '.md']` — but without a registered preprocessor for `.md`, the file goes direct-to-OXC and will fail parse. Preprocessor-registry-per-extension is a deferred follow-on.

+## Why
+
+MDX files render ds-built components but the extractor's scanner never sees them. `packages/showcase/src/components/docs/MetricCard.tsx:7` exports `MetricGrid`; the only call sites are JSX tags `<MetricGrid>` inside `packages/showcase/src/content/introduction.mdx:15` and `packages/showcase/src/content/support/component-test.mdx:302`. `grep -rn "<MetricGrid>\|createElement(MetricGrid" packages/showcase/src` returns zero hits in any `.ts`/`.tsx`/`.js`/`.jsx` file.
+
+The file-discovery walk in both bundler adapters hardcodes JSX-flavored source extensions only:
+
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts:79`: `const DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS = new Set(['.ts', '.tsx', '.js', '.jsx']);`
+- `packages/next-plugin/src/plugin.ts:679`: `const extensions = new Set(['.ts', '.tsx', '.js', '.jsx']);`
+
+Neither walks `.mdx`. The JSX scanner therefore builds a usage ledger with zero renderings for MetricGrid. In production builds (`dev_mode=false`), the reconciler eliminates it — `animus-MetricGrid*` rules are absent from `packages/showcase/dist/assets/styles-*.css` after a fresh `bun run clean:full && bun run verify:build:showcase`. In dev (`dev_mode=true`) the post-`fix-selector-rule-extraction` Position 3 contract retains the component and surfaces a `kind: "prospective_component"` diagnostic — the same dev/build divergence the prior arc was designed to make observable, now revealing a different underlying gap.
+
+This is NOT a JSX scanner gap (scanner correctly handles the JSX it sees), NOT a transform-resolution gap (transforms never run because the component is dropped), NOT a theme-resolution gap. It is a **file-discovery gap**: MDX sources are invisible to the scanner's input set, not mis-handled during parse.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Add a `extensions?: string[]` config option to both `AnimusExtractOptions` (vite-plugin) and `AnimusNextOptions` (next-plugin), defaulting to a shared `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` constant `['.ts', '.tsx', '.js', '.jsx', '.mdx']` exported from `packages/extract/pipeline/mdx-preprocessor.ts`. Both plugins' existing hardcoded extension Sets (vite-plugin/src/index.ts:79 + :1123 + next-plugin/src/plugin.ts:679) consume `options.extensions ?? DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS`. Adapter parity becomes a structural invariant — the default constant is imported by both plugins.
+- Extend the scanner's effective input set to include `.mdx` files by default. JSX usages of ds-built components in MDX source are counted by the usage ledger the same way `.tsx` renderings are.
+- Run `.mdx` files through a minimal MDX→JSX preprocessor (`packages/extract/pipeline/mdx-preprocessor.ts` using `@mdx-js/mdx`'s `compile()` API) BEFORE handing them to the existing scanner. Scanner's own contract is unchanged — it operates on JSX the same way regardless of source file type.
+- Declare `@mdx-js/mdx` as `peerDependenciesMeta.optional` on both plugins with a range `^3.0.0`. The preprocessor loads it via dynamic import with `.catch()`; non-MDX consumers pay zero install cost. Consumers who have `.mdx` in `extensions` but lack `@mdx-js/mdx` installed see a one-shot buildStart warning and MDX files are skipped.
+- Add primary bug-coverage as TS unit tests in `packages/vite-plugin/tests/file-discovery.test.ts` + `packages/next-plugin/tests/file-discovery.test.ts` (paired seal/acceptance) — exercises the hardcoded-extension-list bug directly at the file-walk layer.
+- Add a permanent integration regression fixture in `packages/_integration/fixtures/components/mdx-rendering/` capturing: a ds-built component exported from a `.tsx` module, used ONLY from a sibling `.mdx` file, extracted correctly in both dev and build modes (dist-CSS contains the component's rules; manifest shows zero eliminations and zero prospective entries for the component).
+- Add `@mdx-js/mdx` dev-dep to `packages/_integration/package.json` so the integration test harness can preprocess MDX.
+- Verify showcase dist contains `animus-MetricGrid*` rules post-fix.
+- Expand the root `CLAUDE.md` Change-Type Map row from `packages/extract/src/**/*.ts` to `packages/extract/{src,pipeline}/**/*.ts` to cover the new preprocessor edit surface.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+(none — this change closes an existing gap in file discovery)
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `jsx-system-prop-scanner`: the scanner's input set SHALL include JSX regions extracted from `.mdx` files. The scanner's element-recognition contract (`<Component>`, `<Namespace.Member>`, `createElement(...)` per the prior arc) is unchanged — it operates on JSX the same way regardless of whether the source file was `.tsx` or `.mdx`.
+- `vite-extraction-plugin`: the vite-plugin's file-discovery walk SHALL respect the consumer-configurable `extensions?: string[]` option, defaulting to a shared `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` constant that includes `.mdx`. For `.mdx` files, the plugin SHALL invoke the preprocessor from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` before scanner ingestion. `@mdx-js/mdx` SHALL be declared as peer-dep-optional and dynamically imported. The next-plugin SHALL honor the same contract for adapter parity via shared constant import.
+
+## Impact
+
+**Code affected:**
+- `packages/extract/pipeline/mdx-preprocessor.ts` — new module exporting `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS`, `preprocessMdx()`, and types
+- `packages/extract/package.json` — add `@mdx-js/mdx` as peer-dep-optional
+- `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts` — extend `AnimusExtractOptions` with `extensions?: string[]`; replace `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` Set (line 79 + line 1123 HMR call-site) with options-propagated equivalent; wire preprocessor for `.mdx` extension
+- `packages/vite-plugin/package.json` — declare `@mdx-js/mdx` as peer-dep-optional
+- `packages/vite-plugin/tests/file-discovery.test.ts` — new TS unit test, primary bug-coverage tier
+- `packages/next-plugin/src/types.ts` — add `extensions?: string[]` to `AnimusNextOptions`
+- `packages/next-plugin/src/plugin.ts` — replace inline Set at line 679 with options-propagated equivalent; wire preprocessor for `.mdx` extension
+- `packages/next-plugin/package.json` — declare `@mdx-js/mdx` as peer-dep-optional
+- `packages/next-plugin/tests/file-discovery.test.ts` — new TS unit test, primary bug-coverage tier
+- `packages/_integration/package.json` — add `@mdx-js/mdx` as dev-dep (test-harness needs it)
+- `packages/_integration/fixtures/components/mdx-rendering/` — new fixture directory with `component.tsx` + `usage.mdx`
+- `packages/_integration/__tests__/mdx-rendering.test.ts` — new integration test (end-to-end smoke; primary bug-coverage is the unit tier above)
+- `CLAUDE.md` (root) — Change-Type Map row expansion from `packages/extract/src/**/*.ts` to `packages/extract/{src,pipeline}/**/*.ts`
+- `packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md` and `packages/next-plugin/CLAUDE.md` — note the `extensions` option + preprocessor dependency
+
+**APIs affected:**
+- `AnimusExtractOptions` (vite-plugin): new optional field `extensions?: string[]`.
+- `AnimusNextOptions` (next-plugin): new optional field `extensions?: string[]`.
+- New export from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`: `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS`, `preprocessMdx()`, `DefaultExtension` type.
+- External NAPI signature unchanged.
+
+**Consumers affected:**
+- Any consumer rendering ds-built components from `.mdx` files (canonical case: `packages/showcase/src/content/introduction.mdx` renders `MetricGrid`). Previously those components were silently eliminated in production builds; now they extract by default. Pure bug-fix behavior change — no one was relying on the drop.
+- Dev-mode authoring feedback: the prior-arc Phase 4 prospective-elimination warning stops firing for components that ARE rendered from MDX but were being mislabeled as unrendered. Reduces noise in `[animus] ⚠` output.
+- Consumers who don't author MDX pay zero install cost (peer-dep-optional gate — dynamic import fires only when `.mdx` is in `options.extensions`).
+- Consumers who DO author MDX but don't have `@mdx-js/mdx` installed see a one-shot buildStart warning (`[animus] ⚠ .mdx in extensions but @mdx-js/mdx not installed; MDX files skipped`) — install resolves.
+
+**Dependencies:** `@mdx-js/mdx` added to `packages/extract/package.json`, `packages/vite-plugin/package.json`, `packages/next-plugin/package.json` as `peerDependencies` (range `^3.0.0`, matching transitive `@mdx-js/rollup@3.1.1` in lockfile) AND `peerDependenciesMeta: { optional: true }`. Dev-dep on `packages/_integration/package.json` for test-harness use.
+
+**Out of scope (explicit):**
+- Scanner semantics changes — scanner still recognizes JSX the way it does today; only its input source set expands.
+- Transform evaluation changes — orthogonal subsystem, not touched.
+- MDX-specific JSX like MDX-provider-based components — if MDX's `components` mapping (e.g. `h1` → `Heading`) isn't a direct JSX tag reference, it's still invisible. That's a second-order gap tracked as a follow-on; scope here covers only direct `<Component>` tags in MDX.
+- Other non-JSX source formats (.vue, .svelte, .astro). Follow-on if/when consumers request.
+- Bundler adapters beyond vite and next (none exist today; parity contract kicks in when new ones land).
+- Runtime rendering changes — pure static-extractor work.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Scanner input set includes MDX-derived JSX regions
+The JSX scanner's input SHALL include JSX regions extracted from `.mdx` source files. Bundler adapters (`vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`) are responsible for pre-processing MDX files into scanner-consumable JSX form BEFORE the scanner runs; the scanner's own JSX-recognition contract (JSX element tags, member-expression tags, `createElement(...)` CallExpressions per prior-arc Phase 1) applies unchanged to MDX-derived input.
+
+Concretely: a ds-built component rendered via `<Component>` or `<Namespace.Member>` or `createElement(Component, ...)` inside an MDX file's JSX region SHALL be recorded in the usage ledger the same way as an identical render in a `.tsx` file. The reconciler SHALL NOT distinguish between MDX-sourced and TSX-sourced renderings when deciding elimination.
+
+#### Scenario: Component used only from MDX is recognized as rendered
+- **WHEN** a ds-built component is exported from a `.tsx` module and its only call sites are `<Component>` JSX tags inside `.mdx` files
+- **THEN** the scanner's usage ledger SHALL list the component as rendered, and the reconciler SHALL NOT eliminate it in production builds (`dev_mode=false`)
+
+#### Scenario: Dev-mode prospective entry SHALL NOT fire for MDX-rendered components
+- **WHEN** a component is rendered only from `.mdx` and `dev_mode=true`
+- **THEN** the manifest's `report.eliminated_details` SHALL NOT include a `kind: "prospective_component"` entry for that component — MDX renderings are first-class and should not trigger prospective-elimination warnings
+
+#### Scenario: Component rendered via `createElement` from MDX is recognized
+- **WHEN** a component is rendered via `createElement(Component, ...)` inside an MDX file's JSX region (e.g. in a code block or expression slot that compiles to a CallExpression)
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL record the rendering per the prior-arc Phase 1 createElement-recognition contract, producing the same usage ledger entry as an identical `.tsx` source
+
+#### Scenario: Component rendered via both TSX and MDX resolves to a single ledger entry

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Consumer-configurable file-extension list with sensible defaults
+
+The bundler adapter plugins (`@animus-ui/vite-plugin`, `@animus-ui/next-plugin`) SHALL expose a `extensions?: string[]` option on their respective options interfaces (`AnimusExtractOptions`, `AnimusNextOptions`). When the option is undefined, both adapters SHALL default to a shared `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` constant exported from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`. The default SHALL include `.ts`, `.tsx`, `.js`, `.jsx`, and `.mdx`. Both adapters SHALL import the default from the same source of truth — independent redeclaration SHALL be considered a regression.
+
+Adapter parity: any change to the default extension list lands in one module (`packages/extract/pipeline/mdx-preprocessor.ts`) and propagates to both plugins by import.
+
+#### Scenario: Default extensions include `.mdx`
+- **WHEN** a plugin is invoked without an `extensions` option
+- **THEN** the plugin's file-discovery walk SHALL include `.ts`, `.tsx`, `.js`, `.jsx`, and `.mdx` files, matching the shared `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` constant
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer override replaces the list
+- **WHEN** a plugin is invoked with `extensions: ['.ts', '.tsx']`
+- **THEN** the file-discovery walk SHALL walk ONLY `.ts` and `.tsx` files — the consumer's list fully replaces the default, no additive merge
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer can add extensions beyond the default
+- **WHEN** a plugin is invoked with `extensions: ['.ts', '.tsx', '.js', '.jsx', '.mdx', '.md']`
+- **THEN** the file-discovery walk SHALL include `.md` files alongside the default set. The plugin does NOT attempt preprocessing for unknown extensions — `.md` files are handed directly to the scanner (which will skip them as non-JSX) unless a preprocessor for `.md` exists
+
+#### Scenario: Both plugins import the shared constant
+- **WHEN** either plugin's source is inspected
+- **THEN** the file-discovery walk's default-extension resolution SHALL be `options.extensions ?? DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` (where `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` is imported from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`). Neither plugin SHALL carry its own local copy of the default list
+
+### Requirement: File-discovery walk includes `.mdx` sources by default
+
+The bundler adapter plugins SHALL include `.mdx` files in their `buildStart` file-discovery walk alongside existing `.ts`/`.tsx`/`.js`/`.jsx` coverage — via the `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` default (see preceding requirement), not as a hardcoded module-local list. MDX files SHALL be pre-processed into scanner-consumable JSX form before being passed to the Rust NAPI `analyzeProject` call. Pre-processing failures on individual files SHALL warn via the plugin's logger (prefix `[animus] ⚠`) and exclude that file from the scanner input, without halting the build.
+
+#### Scenario: `.mdx` files appear in the scanner's input set (default config)
+- **WHEN** the vite-plugin's or next-plugin's `buildStart` runs with default options AND `.mdx` files present under the discovery root
+- **THEN** those files SHALL be included in the scanner input (after MDX→JSX pre-processing) and their JSX references counted by the usage ledger
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer opt-out via `extensions` override
+- **WHEN** a plugin is invoked with `extensions: ['.ts', '.tsx', '.js', '.jsx']` (dropping `.mdx`)
+- **THEN** the file-discovery walk SHALL NOT include `.mdx` files, MDX preprocessing SHALL NOT be invoked, and the `@mdx-js/mdx` peer-dep SHALL NOT be dynamically imported (zero install-footprint cost for MDX-free consumers)
+
+#### Scenario: Pre-processing failure does not halt the build
+- **WHEN** an individual `.mdx` file fails MDX→JSX pre-processing (malformed frontmatter, invalid JSX, etc.)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL emit a `[animus] ⚠ MDX preprocessing failed for <file>: <error>` warning via its logger, exclude that file from scanner input, and continue the buildStart with remaining files
+
+#### Scenario: MDX-rendered component extracts in production builds
+- **WHEN** `bun run clean:full && bun run verify:build:showcase` completes with MDX files rendering ds-built components (e.g. `<MetricGrid>` in `packages/showcase/src/content/**/*.mdx`)
+- **THEN** the resulting `packages/showcase/dist/assets/styles-*.css` SHALL contain the component's CSS rules — `animus-MetricGrid*` selectors SHALL be present
+
+#### Scenario: Adapter-parity via shared constant
+- **WHEN** either adapter's default extensions are inspected
+- **THEN** the default SHALL trace to the single `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` export in `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`. Parity drift (one plugin's default list differing from the other's) is impossible unless a plugin bypasses the shared import — which SHALL be considered a regression
+
+### Requirement: `@mdx-js/mdx` declared as peer-dep-optional, loaded via dynamic import
+
+The plugin packages SHALL declare `@mdx-js/mdx` in both `peerDependencies` (range `^3.0.0`) AND `peerDependenciesMeta: { "@mdx-js/mdx": { optional: true } }`. The preprocessor module SHALL load `@mdx-js/mdx` via `await import('@mdx-js/mdx').catch(() => null)` — dynamic, with null-fallback on resolution failure.
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer with `.mdx` in extensions and `@mdx-js/mdx` installed
+- **WHEN** a consumer has `.mdx` in `options.extensions` (or defaults) AND `@mdx-js/mdx@^3` resolvable in their module graph
+- **THEN** MDX files SHALL preprocess and feed to the scanner as expected
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer with `.mdx` in extensions but `@mdx-js/mdx` absent
+- **WHEN** a consumer has `.mdx` in `options.extensions` but `@mdx-js/mdx` is NOT resolvable
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL emit a one-shot buildStart warning `[animus] ⚠ .mdx in extensions but @mdx-js/mdx not installed; MDX files skipped` and SHALL continue the build with `.mdx` files excluded from scanner input
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer without `.mdx` in extensions
+- **WHEN** a consumer configures `options.extensions` to exclude `.mdx`
+- **THEN** the preprocessor SHALL NOT be invoked, `@mdx-js/mdx` SHALL NOT be dynamically imported, and non-MDX consumers SHALL pay zero install footprint cost regardless of whether `@mdx-js/mdx` is resolvable

+## 1. Phase 0 — Investigation gate + primary bug-coverage unit tier
+
+- [x] 1.1 Add `@mdx-js/mdx` as a dev-dep to `packages/_integration/package.json` so the integration-test harness can preprocess MDX source. Run `bun install` and confirm the lockfile resolves to the same `@mdx-js/mdx` version as the existing transitive resolution from `@mdx-js/rollup@3.1.1`.
+- [x] 1.2 Author the minimized integration fixture under `packages/_integration/fixtures/components/mdx-rendering/` — `component.tsx` exporting a ds-built component (e.g. `MdxRenderedBox`) and `usage.mdx` rendering `<MdxRenderedBox>`. No `.ts`/`.tsx`/`.js`/`.jsx` usage of the component.
+- [ ] 1.3 Author primary bug-coverage unit test at `packages/vite-plugin/tests/file-discovery.test.ts`. The test SHALL invoke the plugin's own `discoverFiles` function against a fixture directory containing one `.tsx` file and one `.mdx` file and assert:
+  - With default extensions, `.mdx` appears in the returned file list.
+  - With `options.extensions: ['.ts', '.tsx']` (override dropping `.mdx`), `.mdx` does NOT appear.
+  - Paired seal/acceptance per the prior `fix-selector-rule-extraction` D3 pattern: `test('[Bug seal — .mdx not discovered with default extensions]')` asserts current broken behavior (pre-fix); `test.skip('[Bug acceptance — .mdx discovered with default extensions]')` skipped until Phase 1 unseals.
+- [ ] 1.4 Author parallel unit test at `packages/next-plugin/tests/file-discovery.test.ts` mirroring 1.3 but invoking next-plugin's own `discoverFiles` method. Adapter-parity-by-shared-constant means both tests assert identical default behavior.
+- [x] 1.5 Author the integration test `packages/_integration/__tests__/mdx-rendering.test.ts` as end-to-end smoke coverage. Invoke `runPipeline` with both files after preprocessing `.mdx` via `@mdx-js/mdx`'s `compile()` directly in the test (the preprocessor module isn't built yet). Paired seal/acceptance:
+  - `test('[Bug seal — MDX-only rendering eliminated in prod mode]')` — asserts `components_eliminated >= 1` today (pre-fix).
+  - `test.skip('[Bug acceptance — MDX-only rendering extracts in prod mode]')` — skipped; unskips in Phase 3.
+- [ ] 1.6 Run `bun run verify:unit:ts` — confirm both new unit test seals pass and skipped acceptances would fail against current behavior. If either seal FAILS to pass (meaning the bug is already "fixed" by some other code path), pause and investigate — the test is diagnosing the wrong gap.
+- [x] 1.7 Run `bun run verify:integration` — confirm the integration seal passes and the skipped acceptance would fail.
+- [ ] 1.8 Verify with a live showcase dev-mode run that the post-Phase-4 `kind: "prospective_component"` diagnostic fires for `MetricGrid`: `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1 bun run --filter './packages/showcase' dev` and grep console output for `MetricGrid would be eliminated in production`. Expected: warning fires (validates the gap's dev-side observability). If warning does NOT fire, investigate Phase-4 warning-emission path BEFORE scoping this change's fix.
+
+## 2. Phase 1 — Preprocessor module + vite-plugin config + preprocessor wiring
+
+- [x] 2.1 Create `packages/extract/pipeline/mdx-preprocessor.ts` exporting:
+  - `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS = ['.ts', '.tsx', '.js', '.jsx', '.mdx'] as const` and `DefaultExtension` type.
+  - `async function preprocessMdx(source: string, filename: string): Promise<string | null>` — dynamically imports `@mdx-js/mdx` via `await import('@mdx-js/mdx').catch(() => null)`; if null, returns null; otherwise calls `compile(source, { outputFormat: 'function-body', development: false })` and returns the JSX-compiled string. Prepend a `/* @mdx-source: <filename> */` comment for scanner error-reporting trace.
+- [x] 2.2 Add `@mdx-js/mdx` to `packages/extract/package.json` as `peerDependencies: { "@mdx-js/mdx": "^3.0.0" }` + `peerDependenciesMeta: { "@mdx-js/mdx": { optional: true } }`. Do NOT add as a regular or dev dep — the optional peer is the entire dep strategy.
+- [x] 2.3 Update `packages/extract/pipeline/index.ts` (or equivalent barrel) to export `{ DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS, preprocessMdx, type DefaultExtension }` from the new module.
+- [x] 2.4 Rebuild extract's TS pipeline dist (`bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build:ts`) so downstream plugins can resolve the new exports during their rebuilds.
+- [x] 2.5 Extend `AnimusExtractOptions` in `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts` with `extensions?: string[]` field + JSDoc referencing the default constant.
+- [x] 2.6 Add `@mdx-js/mdx` to `packages/vite-plugin/package.json` as peer-dep-optional (same shape as 2.2).
+- [x] 2.7 Import `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` and `preprocessMdx` from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` at the top of `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`. Delete the module-local `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` const at line 79.
+- [x] 2.8 Replace the `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS.has(...)` check at `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts:115` (discovery walk) with a check against `new Set(options.extensions ?? DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS)` computed once per `buildStart`.
+- [x] 2.9 Replace the `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS.has(...)` check at `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts:1123` (HMR filter) with the same options-propagated Set.
+- [x] 2.10 Add the preprocessor invocation: in the file-ingestion path between `discoverFiles` and the `analyzeProject` NAPI call, iterate discovered files; for any file with `.mdx` extension, call `preprocessMdx(source, path)`. On null return (missing `@mdx-js/mdx`), emit a one-shot `[animus] ⚠ .mdx in extensions but @mdx-js/mdx not installed; MDX files skipped` warning and skip the file. On exception, emit `[animus] ⚠ MDX preprocessing failed for <file>: <error>` and skip.
+- [x] 2.11 For non-`.mdx` files, pass source through unchanged (identity fast-path).
+- [x] 2.12 Rebuild vite-plugin dist: `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/vite-plugin' build:ts`.
+- [ ] 2.13 Delete the vite-plugin `[Bug seal ...]` test in `packages/vite-plugin/tests/file-discovery.test.ts`; unskip the acceptance test. Run `bun run verify:unit:ts` — acceptance MUST pass.
+- [x] 2.14 Run `bun run verify:compile && bun run verify:integration && bun run verify:showcase && bun run verify:vite`. `animus-MetricGrid*` SHALL now appear in the fresh showcase dist.
+
+## 3. Phase 2 — Next-plugin parity (same shared-constant surface)
+
+- [x] 3.1 Extend `AnimusNextOptions` in `packages/next-plugin/src/types.ts` with `extensions?: string[]` field + JSDoc.
+- [x] 3.2 Add `@mdx-js/mdx` to `packages/next-plugin/package.json` as peer-dep-optional (same shape as 2.2).
+- [x] 3.3 Import `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` and `preprocessMdx` from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` at the top of `packages/next-plugin/src/plugin.ts`. Remove the inline `new Set(['.ts', '.tsx', '.js', '.jsx'])` at line 679 and replace with `new Set(options.extensions ?? DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS)` at an appropriate module scope.
+- [x] 3.4 Add preprocessor invocation parallel to vite-plugin (task 2.10) in next-plugin's file-ingestion path. Error-handling branches identical.
+- [x] 3.5 Rebuild next-plugin dist: `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/next-plugin' build:ts`.
+- [ ] 3.6 Delete the next-plugin `[Bug seal ...]` test in `packages/next-plugin/tests/file-discovery.test.ts`; unskip the acceptance test. Run `bun run verify:unit:ts` — acceptance MUST pass.
+- [x] 3.7 Run `bun run verify:compile && bun run verify:next`. If `e2e/next-app/` has no MDX fixture, add a minimum one so `verify:next` exercises the plugin's MDX path end-to-end.
+- [ ] 3.8 If `e2e/next-app/` or showcase trips new diagnostics post-fix (e.g. MDX files that fail preprocessing due to unsupported syntax), capture the error, either widen preprocessor tolerance or document the limitation.
+
+## 4. Phase 3 — Integration seal/unseal + regression audit
+
+- [x] 4.1 Delete the `[Bug seal — MDX-only rendering eliminated in prod mode]` test in `packages/_integration/__tests__/mdx-rendering.test.ts`. Unskip the acceptance test.
+- [ ] 4.2 Run `bun run clean:full`. Then run topological rebuild (`bun run build:all` if present, OR `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/properties' build` → `bun run build:extract` → `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts` → `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/test-ds' build:ts` → `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/next-plugin' build:ts` → `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/vite-plugin' build:ts` → `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/showcase' build`). Then `bun run verify:full`.
+- [ ] 4.3 Audit `packages/showcase/dist/assets/styles-*.css` for `animus-MetricGrid*` — expected presence. Count rules + grid-template selectors to confirm MetricGrid's CSS is intact.
+- [ ] 4.4 Scan showcase MDX sources for OTHER components that may have been silently eliminated pre-fix: `grep -rnE "<[A-Z][a-zA-Z]*" packages/showcase/src/content/**/*.mdx | awk -F'<' '{print $2}' | awk '{print $1}' | sort -u` and cross-reference against dist CSS. Any newly-extracted components post-fix are silent wins; any still-missing components are new follow-ons.
+- [ ] 4.5 Measure buildStart timing pre/post-fix in showcase (`ANIMUS_DEBUG=1 bun run --filter './packages/showcase' build` — compare pre/post Phase 1/2 applied). If buildStart overhead exceeds +10% attributable to MDX preprocessing, document in archive notes and consider opt-out UX.
+
+## 5. Phase 4 — Documentation + archive
+
+- [ ] 5.1 Expand the root `CLAUDE.md` Change-Type Map row `packages/extract/src/**/*.ts (NAPI TS binding / pipeline)` to `packages/extract/{src,pipeline}/**/*.ts (NAPI TS binding / pipeline)` so the new `pipeline/mdx-preprocessor.ts` edit surface has explicit verify-tier mapping.
+- [ ] 5.2 Update `packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md` Configuration section to document the new `extensions?: string[]` option + pointer to the preprocessor module + peer-dep-optional note about `@mdx-js/mdx`.
+- [ ] 5.3 Update `packages/next-plugin/CLAUDE.md` Configuration section with the same documentation for adapter parity.
+- [ ] 5.4 Update `packages/showcase/CLAUDE.md` "Common Breakage Patterns" — add "MDX-only-rendered component eliminated in prod" as a resolved-via-this-arc breadcrumb, OR note the limitation for MDX-provider-mapped components per OQ2.
+- [x] 5.5 Run `openspec validate fix-mdx-component-usage-scanning --strict` — must pass. (Passed 2026-04-27: "Change 'fix-mdx-component-usage-scanning' is valid".)
+
+## Archive Notes (2026-04-27)
+
+Archived with incomplete tasks per maintainer direction ("archive insofar as we can"). Functional fix is live in code and end-to-end-verified per the session 84 audit (MetricGrid + EmberGlow + TallyPulse extracted into the fresh showcase dist post-fix). Deferred items:
+
+- **Unit tests not authored (1.3, 1.4, 1.6, 2.13, 3.6):** vite-plugin and next-plugin file-discovery unit tests + bug-seal/acceptance pairs. The real end-to-end audit is the proof of fix; unit tests would be regression coverage, scoped to follow-on. Per `feedback_live_integration_vs_synthetic`, the live integration carries weight that synthetic unit tests would not have added on top of the audit.
+- **Phase 4 re-verification not re-run (4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5):** the original audit is the verification. Re-running would be confirmation, not new evidence.
+- **Documentation updates (5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4):** root CLAUDE.md Change-Type Map row expansion + per-package CLAUDE.md notes for the new `extensions?: string[]` option + peer-dep-optional `@mdx-js/mdx` pattern. Scoped to follow-on doc pass.
+- **Live showcase dev-mode verification (1.8):** the `prospective_component` diagnostic firing for `MetricGrid` pre-fix. Pre-fix state no longer reproducible (fix is live in code). Captured as a one-time diagnostic-validation that has since been overtaken by the actual fix landing.
+- **Conditional error-capture (3.8):** no e2e/next-app or showcase trips reported post-fix per session 84.

+## Context
+
+The showcase dev/build divergence audit (2026-04-20) surfaced styles that render correctly in dev but disappear in production builds. The user's initial report — "close button has no styles in dist but works in dev" — drove a systematic audit across `packages/showcase/dist/assets/styles-*.css`:
+
+| Component | Base rules | :focus-visible | Failure mode |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| CloseButton (Drawer.tsx) | 0 | 0 | Total drop |
+| ModeTrigger (Shell.tsx) | 0 | 0 | Total drop |
+| TabButton (TabGroup.tsx) | 0 | 0 | Total drop |
+| ColorPalette | 0 | 0 | Total drop |
+| DocsBreadcrumb | 0 | 0 | Total drop |
+| CopyButton | 7 | 0 | Selective drop |
+| NavBar | 33 | 0 | Selective drop |
+| Heading | 8 | 0 | Selective drop |
+| SkipLink (control) | 2 | 1 | Works |
+
+Minimized repros in `packages/_integration/fixtures/components/selector-rules/` (Patterns A–G) pin down two confirmed-on-current-code bugs and characterize adjacent behaviors:
+
+**Bug 1 — JSX scanner gap**: `createElement(bareIdent, ...)` CallExpressions are not recognized as component render usage. The JSX-element (`<Component>`) and JSX-member-expression (`<Namespace.Member>`) paths are recognized; the sibling `createElement` patterns are not. Pattern E proves this: `components_eliminated: 1`, reason `"component not rendered and not a parent"` with `dev_mode=false`. CloseButton in `Drawer.tsx:274` is the canonical production case (rendered only via `createElement(CloseButton, ...)` inside `createPortal`).
+
+**Bug 2 — Scale lookup gap inside selector-alias blocks for pass-through CSS props**: `_focusVisible: { outlineColor: 'primary' }` emits `outline-color: primary;` (unresolved literal) instead of `outline-color: var(--color-primary);`. Pattern C proves this. propConfig-registered props (e.g. `color`) already resolve inside aliased blocks via the existing scale-lookup path; the bug is scoped to pass-through CSS props that only typecheck via `ThemedCSSProps`.
+
+**Dev/build divergence**: Pattern E extracts correctly under `dev_mode=true` but is eliminated under `dev_mode=false`. This silent semantic gap is what lets Bug 1 ship to production unnoticed — users see correct behavior during authoring and only discover the regression after a production build. The divergence is an authoring-feedback failure, not an extraction failure per se.
+
+**Integration coverage gap**: `_integration/__tests__/run-pipeline.ts` calls `analyzeProject` with 9 arguments. The production vite-plugin (`packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts:400-415`) uses 14 arguments including `selectorAliasesJson` and `selectorOrderJson`. The integration tier has never exercised selector-alias processing — which is exactly where both bugs live. This is the structural reason the regression class escaped integration detection.
+
+**Partially diagnosed but out of scope**: CopyButton/NavBar/Heading's "selective drop" pattern (base rules present, `:focus-visible` absent) does NOT reproduce at minimum unit. Pattern G (full `.styles+_hover+_focusVisible+.variant+.states` chain with `{colors.primary}` token ref) extracts correctly. The real cause likely involves showcase-specific theme shape — nested scale paths like `{colors.scheme.300}` or color-mode-adaptive scales — and needs its own minimized repro before it becomes scoped work. Tracked as an open question; follow-on change if confirmed on fresh build.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- JSX scanner recognizes `createElement(bareIdent, ...)` and `createElement(MemberExpr, ...)` CallExpressions as component render usage, parity with `<Component>` / `<Namespace.Member>`.
+- Scale lookup inside `_`-prefixed selector-alias blocks applies to pass-through CSS props (at minimum the color family), not only propConfig-registered props — aligning extractor behavior with the `ThemedCSSProps` TS contract.
+- Integration tier exercises selector-alias processing via the production NAPI signature.
+- Dev/build reconciler parity: scanner blind spots SHALL be observable in dev output, not require a production build to surface.
+- Seven selector-rule fixtures (Patterns A–G) are registered as permanent regression acceptance criteria with the seal-then-unseal test pattern.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Runtime CSS changes — pure static-extractor work.
+- Consumer-facing API changes — all changes are internal behavioral.
+- Theme-shape changes in `test-system.ts` or showcase.
+- Codemods — affected authoring patterns (`createElement(bareIdent)` and `outlineColor: 'primary'` inside aliased blocks) were implicitly broken before; no consumer source changes required.
+- Expanding `ThemedCSSProps` TS surface or narrowing it — orthogonal decision captured in (D2) but implementation deferred unless chosen approach requires it.
+- The CopyButton-class selective-drop root cause — deferred pending fresh-build repro.
+- New `extraction-diagnostics` requirements — that spec already requires "elimination warnings always print"; honoring it is an implementation concern under that spec's existing scope, not a new requirement here.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### D1 — Dev/build reconciler parity strategy: retain in dev + emit dev-mode diagnostic
+
+**Decision:** Adopt Position 3 from the proposal. `dev_mode=true` retains unrendered components (preserves HMR flows where a component is added but not yet referenced). The manifest's `report.eliminated_details` in dev mode SHALL carry a prospective entry for every component that WOULD be eliminated in build mode, so `extraction-diagnostics` can surface it as a warning at authoring time.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- Position 1 (eliminate in both modes): rejected. Breaks hot-add flows common during authoring — add `const Foo = ds.styles({...}).asElement('div')`, save, then use it in JSX a moment later. Strict elimination means the CSS vanishes between saves.
+- Position 2 (retain in both modes): rejected. Weakens dead-code elimination in production. No feedback to the consumer when a component is accidentally never rendered — silent bloat.
+- Position 3 (compromise — chosen): preserves HMR ergonomics AND closes the authoring-feedback gap. Slight implementation complexity (manifest carries dev-mode diagnostic entries), but the alternative is users discovering scanner gaps in production CI. Aligns with the root `CLAUDE.md` "atomic tiers fail loud" ethos.
+
+**Consequence:** `extraction-diagnostics` already requires "elimination warnings always print." In dev mode, the `eliminated_details` entries sourced from prospective elimination will drive the same warning path. No new diagnostic requirement needed — just ensure the plugin consumes prospective entries identically to actual entries.
+
+### D2 — Scale lookup contract for pass-through CSS props: expand extractor
+
+**Decision:** Expand the extractor's scale-lookup path to honor the `ThemedCSSProps` TS contract for pass-through CSS props inside aliased blocks. Scope the Phase 2 implementation to the color family (`outlineColor`, `caretColor`, `accentColor`, etc. resolving via the `colors` scale); a full audit of CSS-property-to-scale mapping is captured as Open Question OQ1.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- Narrow the TS contract (Position 2 from proposal): rejected. `ThemedCSSProps` already offers autocomplete for every CSS color-family property via the shared color scale. Narrowing it to only propConfig-registered props would surprise consumers whose autocomplete shows a valid suggestion that then doesn't resolve. Memory `feedback_type_signature_performance` also constrains — deep TS narrowing must not explode inline generics, and adding per-prop gates is hard to do without mapped-type cost.
+- Leave both sides inconsistent (status quo): rejected. Consumer experience is "I typed a valid scale key, the browser got invalid CSS." That's a contract violation.
+
+**Consequence:** The Rust side needs to know which CSS properties resolve via which scales independently of propConfig membership. Fortunately the existing propConfig entries already encode this mapping for registered props — the expansion reuses the same scale-lookup code with a broader gate condition.
+
+### D3 — Seal-then-unseal test pattern for bug fixes
+
+**Decision:** Use paired test pattern for each bug:
+- `test('[Bug N seal — current broken behavior]', ...)` — passes today by asserting the broken behavior (e.g. `components_eliminated === 1`).
+- `test.skip('[Bug N] ... acceptance', ...)` — skipped today; when fix lands, delete seal and unskip acceptance in the same commit.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- Only skipped acceptance tests: rejected. Silent drift — if the broken behavior silently changes (e.g. an unrelated fix accidentally addresses it), no test fails and no alarm bell rings. The skip stays skipped indefinitely.
+- Only seal tests: rejected. No forward-looking acceptance criteria visible in the suite.
+- Paired seal + acceptance (chosen): fixing the bug FORCES a coordinated edit. Surfaces silent drift as a test failure. Makes the acceptance criteria legible.
+
+**Consequence:** Each bug fix tasks involves deleting the seal test and unskipping the acceptance test as explicit steps. Tasks.md must list these edits so they aren't forgotten.
+
+### D4 — Integration coverage closure scope: extend existing `runPipeline`
+
+**Decision:** Modify the existing `runPipeline` helper to always pass `selectorAliases` and `selectorOrder`. Do not introduce a separate `runPipelineWithSelectorAliases` helper.
+
+**Alternatives considered:**
+- Separate helper for selector-alias-aware tests: rejected. Two helpers mean two code paths diverging over time. The goal is to close the gap, not to create a parallel one.
+- Extend signature additively with optional params at the end: rejected. The existing 9 args already map 1:1 to production call; we're not extending the signature, we're filling in the existing trailing optionals.
+
+**Consequence:** Phase 3 re-runs the full `verify:integration` tier after extension. If any existing test fails, investigate — a pre-existing test that relied on selector-alias-less behavior is itself a bug worth surfacing.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+| Risk | Mitigation |
+|---|---|
+| Extending `runPipeline` breaks an existing integration test that silently relied on selector-alias-less behavior | Run full `verify:integration` after Phase 3; investigate any failure as potentially a second-order bug. If a test legitimately should not use selector aliases (edge case), consider per-test opt-out, but first assume the failure is a real issue. |
+| Bug 2 fix resolves `outlineColor: 'primary'` inside aliased blocks that previously emitted literal unresolved. A consumer hypothetically relied on the literal emission (extremely unlikely — it's invalid CSS). | Cross-reference the active codebase via Grep for any `outlineColor: '[bareScaleKey]'` inside `_aliased` blocks before landing Phase 2. Document the behavior change in the change's archive note. |
+| Bug 1 fix causes components previously silently eliminated to start extracting in builds, potentially bloating CSS size for components rendered via `createElement(bareIdent)` that were deliberately dead-code | Acceptable: dead-code-elimination should be driven by not-actually-used, not by scanner blind spots. Bloat is strictly lower-priority than correctness. |
+| Dev-mode diagnostic for prospective eliminations floods noise if projects have many intentionally-unrendered components | Dev-mode diagnostic goes through existing `extraction-diagnostics` `logger.warn()` path, filterable by the `[animus] ⚠` prefix. Unusual cases (library packages with many components-for-consumer-use) can set `strict: false` to suppress escalation. |
+| Reconciler "keep unrendered in dev + warn" implementation touches dev-mode-only code paths; risk of divergence breeding between modes over time | Codify parity as a spec requirement (`css-reconciler` delta) so new changes touching reconciler logic MUST uphold it. |
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+Behavioral-only change, no consumer migration needed. Deploy flow:
+
+1. **Phase 1** — Bug 1 JSX scanner fix. Land; `verify:canary && verify:integration && verify:build:showcase`. If CSS bundle size grows in showcase, confirm the new components are legitimately rendered via `createElement(bareIdent)` (audit: Grep for `createElement\(` in showcase src).
+2. **Phase 2** — Bug 2 scale lookup. Land; `verify:canary && verify:integration && verify:build:showcase`. Pattern C acceptance test unskips.
+3. **Phase 3** — Integration coverage closure. Land; `verify:integration`. Re-confirm all existing integration tests pass.
+4. **Phase 4** — Dev/build reconciler parity per D1. Land; `verify:full`.
+5. **Phase 5** — Fresh showcase rebuild re-audit (investigation, no code). If the audit surfaces CopyButton-class causes, scope a follow-on change.
+6. **Rollback**: each phase is an isolated commit on the branch; revert individually if post-land issues surface.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+**OQ1 — Which CSS properties map to which scales for pass-through resolution (Bug 2 scope)?**
+Phase 2 scopes to color-family properties (`outlineColor`, `caretColor`, `accentColor`, `textDecorationColor`, `columnRuleColor`, `borderBlockColor`, etc.). A complete audit of CSS-property-to-scale mapping (length → space, etc.) is deferred — if the color-family fix lands cleanly, follow-on proposals can expand. Proposed follow-up: enumerate the propConfig entries and derive a canonical "CSS property family → scale" map shared between TS (`ThemedCSSProps`) and Rust (scale-lookup gate).
+
+**OQ2 — CopyButton-class selective-drop root cause.**
+Pattern G proves chain richness isn't the trigger. Likely candidates:
+- Nested scale paths (`{colors.scheme.300}` with the dotted subscript) failing resolution when the token is a color-mode-adaptive variable rather than a flat palette entry.
+- Color-mode-contextual vars interacting badly with aliased-block emission.
+- Stale dist — showcase `dist/` may predate recent extractor fixes. A fresh `bun run clean:full && bun run verify:build:showcase` would invalidate this hypothesis or narrow it.
+
+Scope: deferred to Phase 5 investigation; any confirmed bug becomes a follow-on change.
+
+**OQ3 — Does `next-plugin` mirror the production signature?**
+Proposal-level claim ("production call is 14 args") was verified in `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts`. The `next-plugin` uses the same NAPI interface but may have its own `runAnalysis`-equivalent. Phase 3 should verify Next's call matches Vite's — if Next also omits selector aliases, that's a parallel coverage gap to close, possibly out of scope for this change and worth a follow-on if substantial.
+
+**OQ4 — Should the `extraction-diagnostics` "always warn" requirement be tightened to differ in strict mode?**
+Existing requirement prints warnings unconditionally. If strict-mode CI should fail on reconciler eliminations, that's a strictness change in `extraction-diagnostics`, not in this change. Deferred.

+## Why
+
+Showcase dev/build divergence audit (2026-04-20) surfaced two bugs in the Rust extractor where production builds drop styles that dev correctly emits. The user's original report — "close button has no styles in dist but works in dev" — is exactly this class. Both bugs are reproducible on current code via minimized integration fixtures. The integration test tier has a coverage gap that allowed both bugs to ship: `runPipeline` invokes `analyzeProject` with 9 args while the production vite-plugin passes 14 (including `selectorAliasesJson`/`selectorOrderJson`), so selector-alias processing was never integration-covered.
+
+A silent dev/build semantic divergence in the reconciler compounds the problem: dev mode keeps components that build mode eliminates, so scanner gaps are only visible in production artifacts.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Fix JSX scanner: recognize `createElement(bareIdent, ...)` CallExpressions as component render usage. Today only `<Component>` and `<Namespace.Member>` are recognized; components rendered exclusively via `createElement(BareIdent, ...)` (e.g. `CloseButton` in `packages/showcase/src/components/layout/Drawer.tsx:274` under `createPortal`) are eliminated by the reconciler in build mode with reason `"component not rendered and not a parent"`.
+- Fix scale resolution inside selector-alias nested blocks: theme-scale-typed string values on pass-through CSS props (e.g. `_focusVisible: { outlineColor: 'primary' }`) SHALL resolve via the `colors` scale to `var(--color-primary)`, not emit as literal `outline-color: primary;`. Registered propConfig props (e.g. `color`) already resolve correctly inside aliased blocks; the bug is scoped to pass-through CSS props that only typecheck via `ThemedCSSProps`.
+- Close integration coverage gap: `packages/_integration/__tests__/run-pipeline.ts` SHALL invoke `analyzeProject` with the production 14-arg signature including `selectorAliases` and `selectorOrder`. All existing integration tests SHALL continue to pass after the extension.
+- Codify dev/build reconciler parity for unrendered components: reconciler elimination decisions SHALL NOT silently diverge between `dev_mode=true` and `dev_mode=false`. Either both modes eliminate, both keep, or dev emits an authoring-time warning matching what build would eliminate — decision captured in design.md, mechanics captured in the reconciler spec.
+- Register a permanent regression-test fixture matrix for selector-rule authoring in `packages/_integration/fixtures/components/selector-rules/`. Seven fixtures already written (Patterns A–G) cover raw `&:selector` + alias mixes, token refs in shorthand values, compound aliases (`_selected`), createElement bare-ident usage, unresolvable-token characterization, and full-chain (`.styles+_hover+_focusVisible+.variant+.states`).
+
+Note: `extraction-diagnostics` already requires "reconciler elimination warnings always print via Vite's logger" (existing scenario `Component eliminated as not rendered`). This change assumes that requirement is honored but does NOT introduce a new diagnostic requirement. If audit finds the warning isn't firing in practice, that's an implementation bug tracked under that spec, not a scope expansion here.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+(none — this change fixes two bugs and hardens two existing capabilities)
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `jsx-system-prop-scanner`: scanner SHALL recognize `createElement(bareIdent, ...)` and `createElement(Namespace.Member, ...)` CallExpressions as component render usage, joining existing JSX-element and JSX-member-expression recognition paths.
+- `selector-alias-registry`: inside `_`-prefixed selector-alias blocks nested within `.styles({...})`, theme-scale-typed string values SHALL resolve via the theme scales regardless of whether the CSS property is registered in propConfig. Today the resolution path only covers propConfig-registered props; pass-through CSS props (e.g. `outlineColor`) emit the scale key literally.
+- `pipeline-integration-testing`: the shared `runPipeline` helper SHALL invoke `analyzeProject` with the production signature including `selectorAliasesJson` and `selectorOrderJson`. Fixture discovery SHALL support subdirectories under `fixtures/components/` so grouped regression fixtures (e.g. `selector-rules/`) can live without colliding with the top-level multi-file walk.
+- `css-reconciler`: component-elimination decisions SHALL be consistent between `dev_mode=true` and `dev_mode=false`, or any intentional divergence SHALL surface as an authoring-time diagnostic in dev mode. The specific resolution (always-align / dev-warn-only / keep-divergence-with-notice) is an ADR captured in design.md.
+
+## Impact
+
+**Code affected:**
+- `packages/extract/src/jsx_scanner.rs` (or equivalent walker) — CallExpression recognition for `createElement(...)` form
+- `packages/extract/src/style_evaluator.rs` / `theme_resolver.rs` — scale lookup in nested selector-alias visitor
+- `packages/extract/src/project_analyzer.rs` or reconciler module — dev/build parity
+- `packages/_integration/__tests__/run-pipeline.ts` — signature extension
+- `packages/_integration/fixtures/read-fixtures.ts` — subdirectory support (if chosen over flat-only)
+
+**APIs affected:** none (internal behavioral changes; external NAPI signature unchanged).
+
+**Consumers affected:**
+- Any consumer rendering a ds-built component exclusively via `createElement(BareIdent, ...)` in production — previously dropped, now extracted. Behavior change is unambiguously a fix.
+- Any consumer authoring `_aliased` blocks with pass-through CSS props using bare scale keys (e.g. `outlineColor: 'primary'`) — previously emitted literal `outline-color: primary;` (invalid CSS), now resolves to `var(--color-primary)`. Behavior change is unambiguously a fix; unlikely anyone was depending on the broken literal emission.
+- Dev-mode authoring feedback tightens depending on chosen dev/build parity Position.
+
+**Dependencies:** no new external dependencies.
+
+**Out of scope (explicit):**
+- Runtime CSS changes — pure static-extractor work.
+- Theme-shape changes in `test-system.ts` or showcase.
+- Codemods for authoring patterns.
+- The "CopyButton-class selective-drop" investigation — showcase dist shows CopyButton extracting base rules but dropping `:focus-visible`. Pattern G minimum repro (full `.styles+_hover+_focusVisible+.variant+.states` chain with token ref) works correctly, so the cause is likely theme-shape-specific (nested scale paths like `{colors.scheme.300}`, color-mode-adaptive scales). Scope to a follow-on change once reproduced on fresh build.
+- Fresh showcase rebuild re-audit — investigation task scoped to this change, but any additional bug classes surfaced will be follow-on proposals, not expanded scope here.
+- `extraction-diagnostics` already specifies "elimination warnings always print." If that's not honored today, it's an implementation bug under that spec's existing requirement — not a new requirement this change introduces.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Dev/build reconciler parity for component elimination
+Component-elimination decisions SHALL be consistent between `dev_mode=true` and `dev_mode=false` invocations of `analyzeProject` — OR any intentional divergence SHALL surface in dev mode as an authoring-time diagnostic matching what build mode would eliminate. The reconciler SHALL NOT silently keep components in dev that it eliminates in build. Silent divergence hides JSX-scanner gaps from authoring feedback, causing scanner-related regressions to surface only at deploy time instead of at authoring time.
+
+Acceptable implementation strategies (captured in design.md; the spec constrains the observable contract, not the strategy):
+1. Eliminate in both modes (strictest; may break dev HMR flows where a component is added but not yet rendered).
+2. Retain in both modes (weakest dead-code elimination; simplest to implement).
+3. Retain in dev + emit dev-mode diagnostic for anything that would be eliminated in build (compromise; preserves HMR while closing the authoring-feedback gap). RECOMMENDED in design.md.
+
+#### Scenario: Dev and build agree when component is rendered
+- **WHEN** a component is rendered via any recognized pattern (JSX element, JSX member expression, `createElement(...)` bare ident or member expr) AND appears in the usage ledger
+- **THEN** both `dev_mode=true` and `dev_mode=false` SHALL keep the component's CSS — parity holds, no divergence
+
+#### Scenario: Dev surfaces prospective build-mode elimination
+- **WHEN** `dev_mode=true`, a ds-built component is defined in the project but not recognized as rendered by the JSX scanner, such that `dev_mode=false` would eliminate it
+- **THEN** the manifest's `report.eliminated_details` SHALL include an entry for the component with `kind: "prospective_component"` and a reason explaining it would be eliminated in production, enabling `extraction-diagnostics` to surface a warning at authoring time
+- **AND** `report.components_eliminated` SHALL remain `0` in dev mode — prospective entries SHALL NOT inflate actual-elimination counters, preserving the invariant that actual-elimination counts match the number of `kind: "component"` entries only
+
+#### Scenario: Dev does not silently keep a component that build eliminates
+- **WHEN** a component is kept in `dev_mode=true` output that would be absent from `dev_mode=false` output
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL carry a dev-mode diagnostic record making the divergence observable — authoring feedback SHALL NOT depend on running a production build to reveal scanner blind spots

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Component render tracking at JSX callsites
+The JSX scanner SHALL record which component bindings are rendered in a file. A component is considered rendered when it appears in any of the following forms:
+- As a JSX element tag (`<GridBox />` or `<GridBox>...</GridBox>`)
+- As a JSX member-expression tag (`<DrawerSlots.Overlay />`)
+- As the first argument of a `React.createElement(...)` or `createElement(...)` CallExpression, where the first argument is a bare identifier (`createElement(CloseButton, ...)`) or a member expression (`createElement(DrawerSlots.Overlay, ...)`)
+
+String literals as the first argument of `createElement(...)` (native DOM tags) SHALL NOT be recorded. Non-literal, non-identifier, non-member-expression first arguments (e.g. call expressions) SHALL NOT be recorded — they resolve to dynamic components the scanner cannot attribute to a known binding.
+
+#### Scenario: Component used as JSX element
+- **WHEN** a file contains `<GridBox>...</GridBox>`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL record `GridBox` as a rendered component
+
+#### Scenario: Component used as JSX member expression
+- **WHEN** a file contains `<DrawerSlots.Overlay />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL record `DrawerSlots.Overlay` as a rendered component
+
+#### Scenario: Component imported but not rendered
+- **WHEN** a file imports `GridBox` but never uses it as a JSX element nor passes it to `createElement`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL NOT record `GridBox` as rendered
+
+#### Scenario: Component rendered via createElement with bare identifier
+- **WHEN** a file contains `createElement(CloseButton, { onClick })` or `React.createElement(CloseButton, props, children)`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL record `CloseButton` as a rendered component
+
+#### Scenario: Component rendered via createElement with member expression
+- **WHEN** a file contains `createElement(DrawerSlots.Overlay, props, children)`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL record `DrawerSlots.Overlay` as a rendered component — identical attribution to the JSX member-expression form
+
+#### Scenario: createElement with native DOM tag string literal
+- **WHEN** a file contains `createElement('div', props, children)`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL NOT record any component binding — string literals are native DOM elements, not ds-built components
+
+#### Scenario: createElement with dynamic first argument
+- **WHEN** a file contains `createElement(getComponent(), props)` or `createElement(condition ? A : B, props)`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL NOT record any component binding — call expressions and conditional expressions resolve to dynamic components the scanner cannot attribute

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Integration pipeline invokes production NAPI signature
+The shared `runPipeline` helper in `_integration/__tests__/run-pipeline.ts` SHALL invoke `analyzeProject` with the full production signature used by the vite-plugin adapter, including `selectorAliasesJson` and `selectorOrderJson` derived from the test-system's `toConfig()` output. All integration tests that use `runPipeline` SHALL exercise the same selector-alias code path as the production plugin — no selector-alias-less integration path SHALL exist. This closes the coverage gap that allowed selector-alias-related regressions to ship without integration-tier detection.
+
+#### Scenario: runPipeline passes selector aliases
+- **WHEN** an integration test calls `runPipeline(entries)` with the standard test-system fixture
+- **THEN** the NAPI call SHALL receive non-null `selectorAliasesJson` and `selectorOrderJson` sourced from `config.selectorAliases` and `config.selectorOrder`
+
+#### Scenario: runPipeline matches vite-plugin argument arity
+- **WHEN** the vite-plugin's `runAnalysis` invokes `analyzeProject` with N arguments
+- **THEN** `runPipeline` SHALL invoke `analyzeProject` with the same N arguments in the same order — placeholder nulls are permitted for arguments with no integration-test-side analog (e.g. `pathAliasesJson`), but every argument slot SHALL be passed
+
+#### Scenario: Existing integration tests pass under extended signature
+- **WHEN** the existing integration test suite (`extraction.test.ts`, `serialization.test.ts`, `composition.test.ts`, `post-processing.test.ts`, `manifest-shape.test.ts`, `cascade-round-trip.test.ts`, keyframes tests) is re-run after extending `runPipeline`
+- **THEN** every test SHALL pass without modification — the extension SHALL be additive, not behavior-changing, for fixtures that do not exercise selector aliases
+
+### Requirement: Selector-rule fixture matrix registered
+The integration test suite SHALL maintain a permanent selector-rule authoring fixture matrix at `_integration/fixtures/components/selector-rules/` covering the authoring cross-product that previously exposed regressions: raw-selector + alias mixes, token references inside shorthand values, compound aliases (e.g. `_selected`), `createElement(bareIdent, ...)` usage patterns, unresolvable tokens (characterization), and full chains (`.styles+_hover+_focusVisible+.variant+.states`). The matrix SHALL serve as regression acceptance criteria. Current-broken behaviors SHALL be expressed as sealed tests paired with skipped acceptance tests, so fixing the underlying bug requires a coordinated edit that prevents silent behavior change.
+
+#### Scenario: Selector-rules fixture directory discoverable
+- **WHEN** an integration test requires a selector-rule fixture
+- **THEN** it SHALL be loadable via `readFixtureFile(join(__dirname, '..', 'fixtures', 'components', 'selector-rules'), filename)`
+
+#### Scenario: Top-level fixture walk does not include the subdirectory
+- **WHEN** a multi-file test calls `readFixtureFiles(COMPONENTS)` on the top-level `components/` directory
+- **THEN** the walk SHALL NOT recurse into `selector-rules/` — selector-rule fixtures SHALL NOT leak into unrelated multi-file test scope
+
+#### Scenario: Bug seal test locks current broken behavior
+- **WHEN** a bug's acceptance test is marked `test.skip('[Bug N] ...')` with the expected-post-fix assertion, paired with a `test('[Bug N seal — current broken behavior]', ...)` that passes today by asserting the broken behavior
+- **THEN** fixing the underlying bug SHALL cause the seal test to fail — requiring a coordinated edit to delete the seal and unskip the acceptance test, preventing silent regression drift

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Theme scale resolution inside selector-alias blocks for pass-through CSS props
+Inside `_`-prefixed selector-alias blocks nested within `.styles({...})` (e.g. `_hover`, `_focusVisible`, `_selected`), theme-scale-typed string values on pass-through CSS properties SHALL resolve via the theme scales to their CSS variable references. Pass-through CSS properties are CSS properties not registered in the system's propConfig but typable via `ThemedCSSProps` (e.g. `outlineColor`, `caretColor`, `accentColor`). Resolution SHALL use the scale appropriate to the CSS property family (color-family properties → `colors` scale; length properties → `space` scale; etc.).
+
+This requirement exists because propConfig-registered props (e.g. `color`, `bg`) already resolve inside aliased blocks via the existing scale-lookup pathway. Pass-through props were previously emitted as literal unresolved scale keys (e.g. `outline-color: primary;` instead of `outline-color: var(--color-primary);`), producing invalid CSS that silently fails in browsers despite typechecking via `ThemedCSSProps`.
+
+#### Scenario: outlineColor inside _focusVisible resolves via colors scale
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_focusVisible: { outlineColor: 'primary' }` and the theme defines `colors.primary`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS for `&:focus-visible` contains `outline-color: var(--color-primary)` — NOT the literal `outline-color: primary;`
+
+#### Scenario: Pass-through color prop outside aliased block unaffected
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `{ outlineColor: 'primary' }` at the top level (no alias block)
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS contains `outline-color: var(--color-primary)` — existing behavior preserved, this requirement does not regress top-level resolution
+
+#### Scenario: Unknown scale key inside alias emits literal
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_focusVisible: { outlineColor: 'not-a-scale-key' }` and the theme does NOT define `colors.not-a-scale-key`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS contains `outline-color: not-a-scale-key;` — bare unresolvable scale keys pass through as literals (consistent with the existing pass-through behavior for unknown keys at the top level)
+
+#### Scenario: propConfig-registered prop inside alias preserves existing behavior
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_hover: { color: 'primary' }` and `color` IS registered in propConfig
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS contains `&:hover { color: var(--color-primary) }` — existing behavior preserved, this requirement does not alter the propConfig-based resolution path
+
+#### Scenario: Token-ref delimiter syntax inside alias already resolves
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_focusVisible: { outline: '2px solid {colors.primary}' }` (delimited `{scale.key}` token reference inside a shorthand string value)
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS contains `&:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid var(--color-primary) }` — this is the existing behavior preserved by this requirement. The new behavior is scoped to bare scale keys on pass-through props, NOT delimited token refs which already resolve.

+- [x] 1.2 Confirm D2 (expand extractor to honor `ThemedCSSProps` for pass-through CSS props in aliased blocks) via stakeholder approval OR flip to Position 2 (narrow TS) and rewrite the `selector-alias-registry` delta spec accordingly.
+- [x] 1.3 Confirm OQ1 scope: Phase 2 resolves color-family pass-through props only; other families (length → space, etc.) are follow-on work.
+
+## 2. Phase 1 — JSX scanner recognizes `createElement(...)` CallExpressions
+
+- [x] 2.1 Locate the JSX scanner logic in the Rust crate (most likely `packages/extract/src/jsx_scanner.rs`); confirm where JSX member-expression recognition lives (memory `project_compose_member_expr_gap.md` documented the fix). The `createElement` recognition belongs in the same scanning pass.
+- [x] 2.2 Extend the scanner to walk `CallExpression` nodes whose callee is identifier `createElement` or member expression `React.createElement`. For each such call, inspect the first argument:
+  - Bare identifier → resolve against the active binding map (same resolution path used for JSX element tags)
+  - Member expression → resolve against the active binding map (same resolution path used for JSX member-expression tags)
+  - String literal → skip (native DOM element)
+  - Any other expression (call expression, conditional expression, template literal, etc.) → skip (dynamic component the scanner cannot attribute)
+- [x] 2.3 Wire recognized `createElement` usages into the same "rendered component" output channel as JSX-element recognition — the usage ledger and reconciler SHOULD NOT need any changes once the usages flow through.
+- [x] 2.4 Delete the Bug 1 seal test `[Bug 1 seal — current broken behavior]` in `packages/_integration/__tests__/selector-rules.test.ts`.
+- [x] 2.5 Unskip the Bug 1 acceptance test `[Bug 1] bare-identifier createElement is recognized as render usage` in the same file.
+- [x] 2.6 Run `bun run verify:unit:rust` — confirm new JSX scanner logic passes unit tests.
+- [x] 2.7 Run `bun run verify:canary` — confirm NAPI boundary snapshots for recognized patterns remain stable (only EXPECTED additions: components previously dropped now extract).
+- [x] 2.8 Run `bun run verify:integration` — confirm `selector-rules.test.ts` fully passes (10 existing guards + Pattern E acceptance).
+
+## 3. Phase 2 — Scale lookup inside selector-alias blocks for pass-through CSS props
+
+- [x] 3.1 Locate the scale-lookup codepath in the Rust crate for inline-object-valued style evaluation. Candidates: `packages/extract/src/style_evaluator.rs` (object expression → serde_json::Value), `packages/extract/src/theme_resolver.rs` (scale lookup + token alias). Confirm where the nested selector-alias block visitor branches on propConfig membership.
+- [x] 3.2 Extend the scale-lookup gate: for CSS property names in the color family (initial scope — see OQ1), apply the `colors` scale lookup regardless of propConfig registration. Scope the enumeration to: `outlineColor`, `caretColor`, `accentColor`, `textDecorationColor`, `columnRuleColor`, `borderBlockColor`, `borderInlineColor`, `borderBlockStartColor`, `borderBlockEndColor`, `borderInlineStartColor`, `borderInlineEndColor`. (Confirm list against CSS color-family canonicals before coding.)
+- [x] 3.3 Preserve fallthrough behavior: unknown scale keys still emit as literals (consistent with existing top-level pass-through semantics). Only known scale keys in the theme's `colors` map are resolved.
+- [x] 3.4 Ensure top-level (non-aliased) pass-through behavior is unchanged — no regression in `{ outlineColor: 'primary' }` at the root of `.styles({...})`.
+- [x] 3.5 Unskip the Bug 2 acceptance test `[Bug 2] outlineColor inside _focusVisible resolves via colors scale` in `packages/_integration/__tests__/selector-rules.test.ts`.
+- [x] 3.6 Run `bun run verify:unit:rust && bun run verify:canary && bun run verify:integration` — confirm Pattern C acceptance passes, no regressions elsewhere.
+
+## 4. Phase 3 — Integration coverage closure
+
+- [x] 4.1 Extend `packages/_integration/__tests__/run-pipeline.ts` to pass `config.selectorAliases` and `config.selectorOrder` to `analyzeProject`, matching the production vite-plugin 14-arg signature. Placeholder nulls permitted for args with no integration-test analog (`pathAliasesJson`, `keyframesBlocksJson` if applicable).
+- [x] 4.2 Run `bun run verify:integration` — confirm ALL existing integration tests still pass after the extension. Any regression here indicates a second-order bug worth surfacing; investigate before continuing.
+- [x] 4.3 Confirm `packages/_integration/fixtures/read-fixtures.ts` continues to skip `selector-rules/` subdirectory in the top-level `readFixtureFiles` walk. If it does not skip, add the skip (tests should still pass per Phase 3 gate, but the regression-matrix isolation is part of the `pipeline-integration-testing` spec).
+
+## 5. Phase 4 — Dev/build reconciler parity per D1
+
+- [x] 5.1 Locate the dev-mode-specific reconciler branch in the Rust crate. Confirm whether `dev_mode=true` skips elimination entirely or takes a different codepath. (Found: `project_analyzer.rs:1536-1545` — clean `if dev_mode { json!({}) } else { reconcile(...) }` gate. Reconciler itself is dev-mode-unaware.)
+- [x] 5.2 Implement Position 3: dev mode retains unrendered components BUT populates `manifest.report.eliminated_details` with a prospective entry matching the reason build mode would emit. Entries SHALL be distinguishable from actual eliminations (suggested: add an `is_prospective: true` field, or a separate `prospective_eliminations` array). Design.md's D1 decision is silent on the exact field name — choose one that's clear at the consumer (`extraction-diagnostics`) side and document in the css-reconciler spec scenarios. (Chosen: new `kind: "prospective_component"` variant on existing `EliminatedDetail` — matches existing kind-as-discriminator pattern in struct + consumer, preserves `components_eliminated == count(kind=="component")` invariant. Documented in css-reconciler spec scenario 2.)
+- [x] 5.3 Update `packages/vite-plugin/src/index.ts` (and any next-plugin analog) to consume the prospective entries and emit the same `[animus] ⚠` warning as actual eliminations, per the existing `extraction-diagnostics` requirement. (Vite branch added at index.ts:812. Next-plugin has no eliminated_details handling today — flagged as OQ3-adjacent follow-on, not scope-expanded.)
+- [x] 5.4 Verify dev vs build output for Pattern E (`createElement` bare-ident): with Phase 1 fix, Pattern E extracts in both modes — so the prospective-elimination path is NOT exercised by this fixture anymore. Consider adding a new fixture that intentionally exercises the prospective-elimination path (e.g. a ds-built component defined but never rendered) and assert the manifest carries the prospective diagnostic in dev mode. (Added `selector-rules-prospective-unrendered.tsx` — PatternH defined, never rendered. Integration test asserts `kind: "prospective_component"` appears in dev mode and `kind: "component"` appears in prod mode, at parity.)
+- [x] 5.5 Run `bun run verify:full` — confirm dev and build produce the same set of extracted components for the selector-rules fixture matrix. (All 8 stages green: lint, compile, types, unit:ts, unit:rust, canary, integration, build:next, build:showcase, build:vite, assert:next, assert:showcase, assert:vite. Observed in the vite-app build output: `[animus] ⚠ Alert eliminated` + `[animus] ⚠ Badge eliminated` confirming the warning path fires in production builds. The fix-selector-rule-extraction `selector-rules-prospective-unrendered.tsx` fixture exercises the dev-mode half at the integration tier.)
+
+## 6. Phase 5 — Fresh showcase rebuild re-audit (investigation, no code)
+
+- [x] 6.1 Run `bun run clean:full && bun run verify:build:showcase` to produce a fresh showcase dist unaffected by any stale extractor artifacts. (Done; stale-free dist at `packages/showcase/dist/assets/styles-np2ZI_63.css`.)
+- [x] 6.2 Re-audit dist CSS: count `animus-CloseButton`, `animus-ModeTrigger`, `animus-TabButton`, `animus-ColorPalette`, `animus-DocsBreadcrumb`, `animus-CopyButton`, `animus-NavBar`, `animus-Heading`, `animus-SkipLink` rule occurrences in `packages/showcase/dist/assets/styles-*.css`. Document per-component rule count + `:focus-visible` selector count.
+
+  **Audit results (2026-04-21 post-Phase-4 fresh build):**
+
+  | Component | Pre-fix rules | Pre-fix `:fv` | Post-fix rules | Post-fix `:fv` | Status |
+  |---|---|---|---|---|---|
+  | CloseButton | 0 | 0 | 3 | 1 | ✓ FIXED (Phase 1) |
+  | ModeTrigger | 0 | 0 | 3 | 1 | ✓ FIXED (Phase 1) |
+  | TabButton | 0 | 0 | 5 | 1 | ✓ FIXED (Phase 1) |
+  | ColorPalette | 0 | 0 | 7 | 1 | ✓ FIXED (Phase 1) |
+  | DocsBreadcrumb | 0 | 0 | 4 | 1 | ✓ FIXED (Phase 1) |
+  | CopyButton | 7 | 0 | 8 | 1 | ✓ FIXED (Phase 2) |
+  | NavBar | 33 | 0 | 54 | 1 | ✓ FIXED (Phase 2) |
+  | Heading | 8 | 0 | 8 | 0 | REMAINING — deferred to follow-on (see 6.3) |
+  | SkipLink (control) | 2 | 1 | 2 | 1 | ✓ stable |
+
+  8 of 9 fully restored. The CopyButton-class selective-drop hypothesis (suspected pre-fix as the deferrable class) was actually resolved by Phase 2 — the remaining regression is Heading, which uses the nested scale path `{colors.scheme.300}` inside `_focusVisible` at `packages/showcase/src/components/docs/Heading.tsx:63`.
+- [x] 6.3 For any component still showing regression after Phases 1–4 landed, scope a follow-on change. Likely candidates: CopyButton-class (nested scale path / color-mode-adaptive token resolution). Do not expand this change to cover them. (Heading `_focusVisible` block at Heading.tsx:63 uses `outline: '2px solid {colors.scheme.300}'` — nested scale path through color-mode-adaptive `scheme` scale. `scheme` resolves to a contextual-var, not a flat palette entry, which is why this path differs from regular `{colors.primary}` resolution. Scoped to follow-on proposal, NOT expanded here.)
+- [x] 6.4 Close OQ3 — check whether `next-plugin` passes selector aliases to `analyzeProject` in the same way vite-plugin does. If not, either (a) extend this change to include a next-plugin coverage-parity requirement, or (b) scope to a follow-on. Default: scope to follow-on to keep this change tight. (Confirmed: next-plugin `packages/next-plugin/src/plugin.ts:542` and `:841` both pass `this.selectorAliasesJson` to `analyzeProject`. Selector-alias parity holds. OQ3 resolved positively — no follow-on needed on this axis. Separate observation: next-plugin does NOT emit `eliminated_details` warnings (confirmed via grep); that's a diagnostic-emission gap distinct from OQ3, scoped to a separate follow-on if user wants production-symmetric warning emission.)
+
+## 7. Documentation + archive
+
+- [x] 7.1 Update the `packages/showcase/CLAUDE.md` "Common Breakage Patterns" section if the root cause of any showcase regression covered by this change is a useful future debugging breadcrumb. (Added 3 breadcrumbs: createElement scanner gap + dev-mode prospective warning, color-family pass-through in aliased blocks, nested scale path through color-mode-adaptive scale regression.)
+- [x] 7.2 Run `openspec validate fix-selector-rule-extraction --strict` — must pass. (Passed — "Change 'fix-selector-rule-extraction' is valid".)
+- [x] 7.3 Archive via `openspec archive fix-selector-rule-extraction` once Phases 1–5 are complete and the fresh-build re-audit shows the CloseButton + PatternC class of regressions resolved. (Initial attempt 2026-04-21 hit `jsx-system-prop-scanner MODIFIED failed for header` bug — bug was resolved in openspec by 2026-04-27 per Session 90 successful archive of `add-rust-dep-hygiene`. Re-attempted 2026-04-27.)
+- [x] 7.4 Update session memory with the outcome: which bugs were fixed, which CopyButton-class findings were deferred to follow-on, any architectural insights worth preserving (e.g. "extractor's dev/build divergence was the bug-hiding mechanism, not the bug itself"). (Session 83 memory updates: feedback_inner_court_novel_strategies.md (session-83 addendum with trio 2), feedback_terminology_slip_guard.md (new failure class), project_mode_overridable_vs_contextual_var.md (disambiguation memory), feedback_addColors_vs_addModes.md (terminology correction), project_session_2026_04_20.md (session-83 extension).)

+## Context
+
+The `code-hygiene` cascade ships in `add-code-hygiene-protocol`. Its kernel (Layer A biome safe → B biome unsafe-scoped → C home-roll deleter → D knip → D1 reconciler) deletes correctly. The surface that REPORTS what happened was built reactively as each layer was added: counters scattered across `scripts/hygiene/run.sh`, terminal lines accreted layer-by-layer, no centralized signal vocabulary.
+
+A 3-persona practice review (SRE/ops, DX critic, adversarial test engineer) and the session-90 near-miss (`globalStyles` wipe in showcase + next-app, caught by Aaron at runtime not by any signal) showed the surface is dishonest in three load-bearing ways. The proposal frames this as **trust-delegation failure**: hygiene's value is offloaded vigilance — the user/agent delegates dead-decl removal to the tool rather than reviewing every diff. Each of the three failure modes (cap-hit-every-run, dist-stale silent corruption, Layer D blast unannounced) forces fallback to manual diff review, at which point the tool has zero net value.
+
+**Constraints:**
+- The kernel is correct — this change must not regress deletion semantics.
+- `verify:*` tier conventions exist (`require_*` precondition helpers, fail-loud actionable error messages); hygiene should integrate, not invent.
+- Cross-repo portability is a stated long-arc goal ("canary → abstract") — design choices that produce a portable artifact at the end have downstream value.
+- Bash + TypeScript heterogeneity: layers run in mixed environments; any shared substrate must work for both.
+
+**Stakeholders:** Aaron (primary user, end-of-work invoker); future Claude Code agents (programmatic invocation, parsed exit codes); a hypothetical SRE inheriting the tool (the receipt format becomes their first-day artifact).
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Restore the trust contract by making every signal (WARN, NOTE, INFO, ERROR, exit code) carry real semantic load.
+- Introduce a **signal substrate** (`.hygiene/receipts.jsonl`) from which the trust-relevant signals are computed, replacing scattered in-line counters.
+- Provide a **postmortem audit artifact** so that when the safety envelope fails, the user has structured visibility instead of `git diff` archaeology.
+- Produce a **portable abstraction surface** (the receipt schema) that can be re-implemented in another repo without re-implementing the cascade itself.
+- Address the seven specific friction points identified by the review (Tier 1/2 items in the proposal).
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Cross-run receipt history. `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` is overwritten per run; multi-run trend analysis is out of scope.
+- Replacing or restructuring the cascade kernel. The kernel's layer ordering, deletion semantics, and iteration loop stay as specified in `add-code-hygiene-protocol`.
+- Auto-revert on safety envelope failure (explicitly retained as no-auto-revert per existing spec).
+- Detecting build-time-only export consumption automatically (Vite virtual modules, MDX, Rust extractor inputs). The Layer D volume NOTE is a *nudge*, not a precondition; users still own the call to run `verify:build:*`.
+- CRLF/BOM offset handling, `.gitattributes` filter behavior, JSON-escaped workspace names — accepted limitations.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### D1: Deletion-receipts as the signal substrate (vs. five alternatives)
+
+**Decision:** Each cascade iteration writes JSONL records to `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl`; the orchestrator's signal layer derives from receipt analysis via a separate presenter module.
+
+**Alternatives considered (probability ranked when this design was gut-checked):**
+- *In-place instrumentation* (P~50%): each layer accumulates inline counters, run.sh constructs summary text. Lowest delta from current code. Rejected because signals stay scattered across 200+ LOC of bash, the trust contract isn't articulable as a contract, and no portable artifact emerges.
+- *Telemetry envelope* (P~10%): each layer emits structured events to stdout, run.sh parses. Similar to receipts but ephemeral (no postmortem artifact); no audit trail after a failed safety envelope.
+- *Kernel/presenter split with typed RunResult* (P~10%): run.sh → `kernel.ts` → `presenter.ts`. Clean, but requires reshaping the orchestrator into a TS process; loses the bash-coordination ergonomics for preconditions and verify-envelope shellouts.
+- *Pure invariant assertion* (P~4%): binary pass/fail per invariant, no gradient. Loses the WARN/NOTE distinction, which is real signal — Layer D NOTE is correctly informational, not alerting.
+- *State-machine orchestrator* (P~15%): named states with transition events. Strong fit for the temporal positioning of signals (preconditions/during/summary) but bigger refactor than receipts and produces no artifact for postmortem.
+
+**Why receipts (P~7% but spirit-fit 9/10):**
+- Receipts ARE the audit trail. Postmortem is free.
+- The receipt schema is the cross-repo abstraction surface — port the cascade by implementing layers that emit the same schema.
+- Signal computation becomes a pure function of an inspectable file, unit-testable against synthetic fixtures.
+- Survives bash/TypeScript heterogeneity: any layer can append a JSON line; consumption is centralized.
+- Decouples WHEN-signal-is-emitted from WHO-consumes-it: agents could parse receipts directly without involving the presenter.
+
+### D2: Receipt v1 schema (JSONL, single-run scope)
+
+**Decision:** One JSON object per line. v1 fields:
+
+```json
+{"v":1,"iter":2,"layer":"C","verb":"delete","target":"packages/system/src/util.ts:42","kind":"const-decl","extras":{"name":"unusedHelper"}}
+```
+
+| field | type | required | meaning |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `v` | integer | yes | schema version (`1` for v1) |
+| `iter` | integer | yes | cascade iteration number, starting at 1 |
+| `layer` | `"A"\|"B"\|"C"\|"D"\|"D1"` | yes | which layer emitted |
+| `verb` | `"delete"\|"format"\|"stub"` | yes | what the operation did. `format` for Layer A whitespace-only changes; `stub` for Layer D1 empty-module fixes; `delete` everywhere else |
+| `target` | string | yes | `<file>:<line>` for intra-file edits; `<file>` for whole-file deletions; `<file>:<exportName>` for export removals; `<package-name>` for dependency removals |
+| `kind` | string | yes | semantic category (`"named-import"`, `"const-decl"`, `"function-decl"`, `"class-decl"`, `"type-alias"`, `"interface"`, `"enum"`, `"private-member"`, `"destructured-field"`, `"export-clause"`, `"export-default"`, `"file"`, `"dependency"`, `"empty-module"`, `"format-only"`) |
+| `extras` | object | optional | layer-specific extras. Layer C records biome category here as `extras.category`; Layer D records knip issue type as `extras.issueType`; Layer A records the rule that fired |
+
+**Format rationale:** JSONL (newline-delimited JSON) so emitters can append atomically without parsing prior content; consumers (`jq`, `presenter.ts`) read line-by-line. Schema versioning (`v` field) lets future changes evolve without breaking the v1 contract.
+
+**Single-run scope:** file is truncated at orchestrator startup (`: > .hygiene/receipts.jsonl`). No across-run history; no cleanup logic needed. Predictable lifecycle.
+
+### D3: Per-layer emission contracts
+
+**Decision:**
+- **Bash layers (A, B, D):** wrap their tool invocations in `_receipts.sh` helpers. Layer A and Layer B parse biome's JSON output (already used by Layer C) and emit one receipt per fix-applied diagnostic. Layer D parses knip's JSON output and emits one receipt per removal.
+- **TypeScript layers (C, D1):** `delete-unused.ts` and `reconcile-after-knip.ts` emit receipts directly via `appendFileSync('.hygiene/receipts.jsonl', JSON.stringify(record) + '\n')`. Each module gets a small `emitReceipt(layer, kind, target, extras?)` helper that reads `HYGIENE_ITER` from env to tag the iteration.
+- **Iteration tagging:** `run.sh` exports `HYGIENE_ITER` for each iteration (1, 2, 3...) before invoking layers; emitters read it. This decouples iteration tracking (orchestrator concern) from emission (layer concern).
+
+**Helper interface (`scripts/hygiene/_receipts.sh`):**
+
+```bash
+emit_receipt() {
+  # Args: layer iter verb target kind [extras_json]
+  local layer="$1" iter="$2" verb="$3" target="$4" kind="$5" extras="${6:-{}}"
+  printf '{"v":1,"iter":%d,"layer":"%s","verb":"%s","target":%s,"kind":"%s","extras":%s}\n' \
+    "$iter" "$layer" "$verb" "$(jq -Rsn --arg t "$target" '$t')" "$kind" "$extras" \
+    >> "$RECEIPTS_FILE"
+}
+```
+
+`jq -Rsn` handles arbitrary characters in target paths safely.
+
+### D4: Presenter as a TypeScript module, orchestrator owns exit code
+
+**Decision:** `scripts/hygiene/presenter.ts` reads `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl`, parses each line, and computes:
+- per-iteration deletion counts (partition receipts by `iter`)
+- cap-hit verdict: `convergent` if last iter's delete count is zero; `divergent` otherwise
+- Layer D volume: count of `layer="D"` receipts where `kind="file"` (file removals) + count where `kind="export-clause"|"export-default"` (export removals)
+- Layer C category-drift: cross-reference with a separately-emitted `.hygiene/biome-diagnostics.json` from Layer C startup to detect "biome reported diagnostics, but zero Layer C receipts produced" → drift suspected
+
+The presenter writes to stdout in human-readable form AND writes a structured verdict JSON to `.hygiene/verdict.json`. The orchestrator reads `verdict.json`'s `suggestedExitCode` and uses it as the exit code; the orchestrator owns the actual `exit N` because exit codes are a bash-side concern.
+
+**Why TS for the presenter:** unit-testable against synthetic JSONL fixtures via `bun test`; stronger typing than bash + jq for the receipt-shape; reuses the patterns established in `delete-unused.ts` and `reconcile-after-knip.ts`.
+
+**Why split presenter from orchestrator:** the presenter is pure (file-in, decisions-out); the orchestrator coordinates side effects (preconditions, layers, envelope, exit). Separating them lets us test the trust contract in isolation.
+
+### D5: Cap-hit verdict semantics (the spec change)
+
+**Decision:** Iteration cap hit + zero deletes in final iteration → `INFO: cascade settled at iteration cap (idempotent A/B/D churn caused fingerprint drift)` + exit 0. Iteration cap hit + nonzero deletes in final iteration → `WARN: cascade did not converge — Layer C/D still deleting at iteration N` + exit non-zero.
+
+**Rationale:** The current behavior conflates "we hit the cap" with "we have a problem." Empirically (session-90), every run hits the cap because A/B fingerprint churn (whitespace, mtime, gitattributes filter) prevents `git diff HEAD` from being empty even when no semantic change is happening. Receipt-derived per-iter delete counts give us a semantic-stability metric independent of fingerprint churn.
+
+**Edge case:** the *first* iteration that achieves zero deletes — even if the cap isn't hit — should also be reported as `convergent in N iterations`. The presenter computes this for free.
+
+### D6: Layer D volume threshold (≥1 file OR ≥5 exports)
+
+**Decision:** When receipts include ≥1 `layer="D" kind="file"` record OR ≥5 `layer="D" kind∈{export-clause,export-default}` records (across all iterations), append the Layer D NOTE to the summary.
+
+**Rationale:** Files are higher-impact than exports (more likely to be a build-time consumer); a single file removal warrants the NOTE. Exports threshold is set at 5 because below that, the changes are typically intra-package barrel cleanup with low blast radius. Numbers are tuneable via constants in `presenter.ts`; not exposed as CLI flags (defaults work).
+
+**Negative-fingerprint check:** if the threshold were 0/0 (i.e., NOTE on any Layer D activity), the NOTE would fire on every run that knip touches anything → noise. If threshold were 5/20, the NOTE would miss session-90's globalStyles wipe (1 file, ≥1 export) → silent corruption. The chosen 1/5 threshold catches the dangerous case without spamming.
+
+### D7: Category-drift detection (Layer C startup canary)
+
+**Decision:** At Layer C startup (`delete-unused.ts main()`), after parsing biome's JSON output, count diagnostics that match `TARGET_CATEGORIES` after normalization. If the count is non-zero, proceed normally (emit receipts as deletions happen). If biome reported diagnostics but ZERO matched after normalization, write a sentinel record to receipts: `{"v":1,"iter":N,"layer":"C","verb":"drift-suspected","target":"<biome>","kind":"category-drift","extras":{"categoriesSeen":["lint/correctness/X",...]}}`. Presenter sees this and emits the WARN.
+
+**Rationale:** Session-89 had this exact silent-no-op bug — biome 2.x renamed categories with a `lint/` prefix; Layer C's filter required the unprefixed string; deleter went silent. 21 synthetic unit tests passed because they used the wrong-prefix string. A live canary keyed on the actual mismatch closes that whole class of regression.
+
+### D8: Dist-staleness as a bash precondition (not receipt-derived)
+
+**Decision:** Add `require_dist_fresh_for_workspaces` to `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh`. Walks each targeted workspace's `package.json` `main`/`module` paths, compares the dist file's mtime against the latest `src/**` mtime (via `find packages/<X>/src -type f -newer packages/<X>/dist/index.js`). On any stale dist:
+- Fix mode: ERROR + exit non-zero before any layer runs.
+- Scan mode: WARN + continue (preserves preview ergonomics).
+
+**Why not receipt-derived:** preconditions run BEFORE any receipt is written. They gate entry into the cascade. A precondition that wrote a receipt would invert the architecture — receipts are the post-action audit, not the gate.
+
+**Workspace targeting:** in scope=changed mode, only the workspaces touched by the diff are checked; in scope=all mode, every workspace with a `dist/` is checked. Mirrors the existing `--workspace` derivation logic.
+
+### D9: --apply --all requires explicit confirmation (CLI-side, not signal)
+
+**Decision:** When `run.sh` detects `--apply` AND `--all`:
+- TTY mode (`[ -t 0 ]`): prompt `Type 'apply-all' to continue: ` and refuse if input differs.
+- Non-TTY mode (agent invocation, CI not applicable here per spec): require `--yes-apply-all` flag; refuse with actionable error if absent.
+
+**Rollout:** hard-gate immediately. Update agent-side hygiene invocations in this same change (the relevant agent skill is `.claude/skills/hygiene/` if it exists; otherwise, document the new contract in CLAUDE.md and the hygiene-related skills point at CLAUDE.md). One-week soft-warn period rejected — the gate is for highest-blast-radius operation; users will appreciate the friction.
+
+### D10: Reconciler span-preserving rewrite
+
+**Decision:** Replace the partial-clause synthesis path in `fixStaleBarrelReExports` (currently `el.getText(sf).join(', ')` reconstruction over `NamedExports`) with span-preserving deletions. For a barrel `export { a, b, c } from './m';` where `b` is dead, instead of emitting `export { a, c } from './m';` from text reconstruction, compute the deletion ranges of `b` (including the comma + whitespace) and apply them to the original source via the same reverse-offset splice pattern used by `delete-unused.ts`.
+
+**Why:** the synthesis path strips per-element trivia — JSDoc above an element, biome-ignore comments, per-element `type` modifiers. Span-preserving deletion keeps everything that wasn't deleted exactly as it was.
+
+**Test harness:** Add fixtures under `scripts/hygiene/__fixtures__/reconciler/` covering: JSDoc above an export element, biome-ignore directive, `export { type Foo, bar }` mixed type/value, and `export = X;` CJS form.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+| Risk | Mitigation |
+|---|---|
+| Receipt schema design risk: emitters disagree on shape over time, receipts become the new accreted surface. | v1 schema fixed in this design + spec; `v` field allows controlled evolution; receipts validated on parse via TS types in presenter. |
+| Bash emission ergonomics: `jq -Rsn` invocation per record adds startup cost; on a 200-deletion run, that's 200 forks. | Acceptable in absolute terms (`jq` startup is ~5ms; 200×5ms = 1s on a multi-second cascade run). If it becomes a bottleneck, switch the bash helper to a single python/perl one-liner that does JSON-escape inline. |
+| Receipt file race: bash layers and TS layers writing concurrently could interleave partial lines. | Layers run sequentially within an iteration; only one writer at a time. JSONL with newline as record terminator means partial writes self-detect (incomplete final line ignored by parser). |
+| Postmortem usefulness depends on receipts being written even on crash. | `appendFileSync` (TS) and `>>` (bash) are line-flushed; SIGINT during a cascade leaves a valid partial JSONL. Document in CLAUDE.md as the postmortem entry point. |
+| `--yes-apply-all` introduces a behavior change for any existing agent skill that runs `--apply --all`. | Audit `.claude/skills/` for hygiene invocations in the same change; update or document. |
+| Dist-staleness precondition could be over-strict if a workspace has no `src/` watcher (e.g., legacy or fixture packages). | Helper skips workspaces under `legacy/` and any package whose `package.json` lacks a `main`/`module` field. |
+| Layer D volume threshold (1 file, 5 exports) tuned on session-90 data; could be wrong for other repos at abstraction time. | Thresholds defined as named constants in `presenter.ts`; abstraction proposal can parameterize them. Not exposed as CLI flags now — defaults serve the canary. |
+| Span-preserving reconciler rewrite could regress the existing synthesis path's behavior on edge cases not yet covered by fixtures. | Tier 3 fixtures (overload-JSDoc, `export = X`, namespace) added in same change; existing reconciler test suite (15 tests) extended to assert trivia preservation. |
+| Cap-hit verdict relies on per-iter delete counts; if any layer fails to emit receipts on a deletion, the verdict mis-classifies. | Receipt emission is a hard contract per layer (spec requirement); presenter can fall back to current `git diff HEAD` fingerprint as a sanity check (i.e., if presenter says "convergent" but `git diff` is dirty in the final iter, downgrade to WARN). |
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+This change is fully additive — no existing behavior is removed; signals get more accurate, an audit artifact appears.
+
+**Step 1 — substrate (no user-visible change):**
+- Add `_receipts.sh` helper, `presenter.ts`, presenter unit tests.
+- Wire `RECEIPTS_FILE` truncate at run.sh startup.
+- Add receipt emission to all five layers (A/B/C/D/D1) without changing any current signaling logic.
+- After this step, receipts are written but the orchestrator still uses its existing summary path.
+
+**Step 2 — presenter takes over signaling:**
+- Replace orchestrator's inline cap-hit message with presenter-derived verdict.
+- Add Layer D volume NOTE.
+- Add category-drift WARN.
+
+**Step 3 — preconditions and CLI gates:**
+- Add `require_dist_fresh_for_workspaces` precondition.
+- Add `--yes-apply-all` gate.
+- Refresh help text to show env-var resolution.
+
+**Step 4 — reconciler & fixtures:**
+- Span-preserving rewrite in `fixStaleBarrelReExports`.
+- Add Tier 3 corner-case fixtures.
+- Extend `resolveTarget` to handle `ts.isModuleDeclaration`.
+
+**Step 5 — documentation:**
+- Update CLAUDE.md § Code Hygiene Workflow.
+- Document `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` as the postmortem entry point.
+
+**Rollback:** revert `presenter.ts` invocation in `run.sh` and the orchestrator falls back to its current inline-summary behavior. Receipts continue to be written but unused — harmless. Each step is independently revertable.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- **Should presenter consume `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` strictly, or also accept stdin for ad-hoc replay?** Lean: file-only for v1 (simpler); stdin replay is a future affordance.
+- **Should the receipt schema include a `runId` (UUID) for cross-tool correlation?** Lean: not in v1 (single-run scope makes it redundant); add when cross-run history is added if ever.
+- **Naming: `_receipts.sh` or `receipts.sh`?** Helper convention in `scripts/verify/` uses leading underscore for internal-use bash files (`_preconditions.sh`); follow that. Decision: leading underscore.
+- **Should the dist-staleness check include `extract/dist/` (a NAPI-adjacent TS dist) or only the pure-TS dist set?** Lean: include — knip resolves cross-workspace via package.json regardless of NAPI. Verify in implementation; the precondition helper accepts any workspace with `main`/`module`, which extract has.

+## Why
+
+`code-hygiene`'s value proposition is **offloaded vigilance**: at end-of-work, a human or agent delegates "find and remove the dead-decl artifacts of iterative work" to the tool rather than inspecting every diff manually. That delegation is only viable if the tool's signal layer is a *trust contract* — every WARN means "look here," every silence means "trust me," every exit code maps unambiguously to a verdict. When trust breaks, the user is forced back into manual diff review, at which point the tool has zero net value over hand-cleanup.
+
+A 3-persona practice review of the freshly-installed cascade (SRE/ops, DX critic, adversarial test engineer) identified three behaviors that each break trust by forcing fallback to manual review:
+
+- **Cap-hit warning fires on essentially every fix-mode run.** The orchestrator emits `WARN` whenever the iteration cap is hit, even when the final iteration produced zero deletions (i.e., genuine convergence with idempotent A/B/D fingerprint churn). Users learn the warning means nothing, then ignore it the time it does.
+- **Cross-workspace dist-staleness is silent corruption.** Knip resolves cross-workspace imports against `package.json` `main`/`module` paths (i.e., `dist/`). If a workspace's `dist` is older than its `src`, knip can flag live exports as unused. No precondition check exists, despite `verify:*` tiers having an established `require_*` pattern.
+- **Layer D high-volume removal is unannounced.** Build-time consumers (the Rust extractor's `globalStyles`, Vite plugin virtual modules, MDX) are invisible to knip even with `entry` hints, so deletions of these can ship without any nudge to run `verify:build:*`. Session-90 had a near-miss: `globalStyles = createGlobalStyles({...})` was wiped from showcase + next-app and only caught because Aaron noticed during dev.
+
+The cascade's deletion semantics are correct. What was built reactively is the surface that *reports what happened*. This change treats that surface as a designed contract, with **deletion-receipts** as its substrate: every layer appends a structured record of each deletion to `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl`, and the orchestrator's signaling derives from receipt analysis rather than scattered in-line counters. Receipts double as a postmortem audit trail (you can inspect a structured log instead of doing `git diff` archaeology when the safety envelope fails) and as the **portability seam** for the canary→cross-repo arc — porting hygiene to another repo becomes "implement layers that emit this schema; reuse the presenter."
+
+## What Changes
+
+### Architecture: deletion-receipts as the signal substrate
+
+Each cascade iteration writes a JSONL receipt file (`.hygiene/receipts.jsonl`, gitignored, overwritten per run) where every Layer A/B/C/D mutation appends one record. The orchestrator's signal layer (cap-hit verdict, Layer D volume, category-drift canary) becomes a pure function of the receipt stream — testable in isolation against synthetic receipt fixtures, and inspectable by a human/agent post-failure without re-running.
+
+Items in Tier 1/2 are tagged **[receipt-derived]** when their signal logic reads from receipts, **[gate]** when they're preconditions before any receipt is written, or **[independent]** when they're correctness/CLI improvements with no signal dependency.
+
+### Tier 1 — signaling honesty (blocking)
+
+- **Cap-hit verdict differentiates churn from oscillation.** **[receipt-derived]** Compute the per-iteration deletion count by partitioning receipts by `iteration` field. If iteration N's delete count is zero, emit `INFO: cascade settled at iteration cap (idempotent A/B/D churn caused fingerprint drift)` and exit 0. Reserve `WARN` strictly for genuine non-convergence (iteration N has Layer C or D deletions). Honors spec contract: fix-mode exits non-zero only on real divergence.
+- **Dist-staleness precondition.** **[gate]** Add `require_dist_fresh_for_workspaces` helper that mirrors the established `verify:*` tier pattern. Walks the targeted workspaces' `package.json` `main`/`module` paths, compares mtime against latest `src/**` mtime, fails loud with `ERROR: <pkg>/dist stale vs src. Run: bun run build:ts` before any cascade layer runs. Mandatory in fix mode; warning in scan mode (preserves preview ergonomics).
+- **Layer D volume signal.** **[receipt-derived]** When receipts include ≥1 Layer D file removal or ≥5 Layer D export removals across all iterations, append a `NOTE` to the summary: `Layer D removed N exports / M files. Build-time consumers (vite virtual modules, MDX, custom plugins) are invisible to knip — run \`bun run verify:build:*\` before committing.` Informational nudge proportional to blast radius.
+
+### Tier 2 — fidelity & discoverability (should-have)
+
+- **Layer C category-drift canary.** **[receipt-derived]** If Layer C invocation reports biome diagnostics present but produces zero `layer:"C"` receipts (i.e., zero deletions because no diagnostic matched `TARGET_CATEGORIES` after normalization), emit `WARN: biome diagnostics present but none matched known categories — biome may have renamed. Categories seen: <list>`. Surfaces session-89-shape silent-no-op regressions on day one of any biome version bump.
+- **Reconciler span-preserving rewrite.** **[independent]** Replace the partial-clause synthesis path in `fixStaleBarrelReExports` (`el.getText(sf).join(', ')` reconstruction) with span-preserving deletions over the original source. Preserves leading-trivia JSDoc, biome-ignore directives, comments, and per-element `type` modifiers. Mirrors the deletion-range pattern already established in `delete-unused.ts`.
+- **`--apply --all` confirmation gate.** **[independent]** Require explicit `--yes-apply-all` (non-TTY / agent invocation) or interactive `Type 'apply-all' to continue:` prompt (TTY). Differentiates the highest-blast-radius invocation from the daily-driver `--apply` (changed scope).
+- **Help text shows env vars + resolved defaults.** **[independent]** `--base` line gains `(env: HYGIENE_BASE_REF, currently: $BASE_REF)`; `--iterations` similarly. Move help-text construction after env-var resolution so help reflects the actual defaults the run will use.
+
+### Tier 3 — corner-case integration tests (ship as fixtures, fix opportunistically)
+
+- **Function-overload-with-JSDoc fixture.** Three-overload function with a JSDoc block between signature and implementation. Asserts the overload group's deletion absorbs interleaved JSDoc trivia rather than orphaning it above unrelated code.
+- **`export = X` (CJS) re-export fixture.** Two-file fixture: `.d.ts` with `export = X;` and a barrel that re-exports under the import binding name. Asserts reconciler does NOT strip the live re-export (current `getExportsOfFile` maps `ExportAssignment` to `default`, which can mismatch CJS-style consumer barrels).
+- **Namespace/module declaration walker extension.** Extend `resolveTarget` in `delete-unused.ts` to recognize `ts.isModuleDeclaration` so unused top-level `namespace` / `module` declarations are deleted rather than silently skipped (currently silently no-ops on an iteration, contributing to cap-hit).
+
+### Out of scope
+
+- CRLF/BOM offset handling, `.gitattributes` filter behavior, JSON-escaped workspace names — accepted as documented limitations rather than blocking changes.
+- Decorator multi-line edge cases — folded into Tier 3 only if the overload-JSDoc fix's trivia-handling improvements don't already address them.
+- Auto-revert on envelope failure — explicitly retained as no-auto-revert per existing spec.
+- Cross-run receipt history (`.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` is overwritten per run, not appended across runs). Multi-run trend analysis is a future change if ever warranted.
+
+### Tradeoffs explicitly named
+
+The receipt substrate is a deliberate increase in upfront design cost relative to in-place instrumentation. The named tradeoffs:
+
+- **Schema design risk.** Receipts must agree on a stable shape across four heterogeneous emitters (bash Layer A wrapping biome, bash Layer B wrapping biome, TypeScript Layer C, bash Layer D wrapping knip + TypeScript Layer D1). Mitigation: minimal v1 schema with explicit version field; design.md fixes the v1 fields and emission contract.
+- **Per-layer emission cost.** Bash layers must shell out to `jq` or use heredoc-with-printf to emit JSONL; TypeScript layers append directly. Mitigation: `scripts/hygiene/_receipts.sh` helper exposing one function `emit_receipt <layer> <iter> <verb> <target> [extras...]`.
+- **Single-run scope.** Receipts overwritten per run; no historical trend. Acceptable per scope decisions; future-friendly if changed.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `code-hygiene`: adds the deletion-receipts emission contract as a new substrate-level requirement; refines orchestrator-output requirements (cap-hit verdict semantics + exit-code contract) to derive from receipts; adds dist-staleness precondition; adds Layer D volume signal; adds Layer C category-drift canary; refines reconciler edit-strategy contract (span-preserving rather than synthesis-reconstruction); adds `--yes-apply-all` confirmation requirement for `--apply --all`; adds help-text-reflects-resolved-defaults requirement.
+
+## Impact
+
+**Code**:
+- `scripts/hygiene/run.sh` — receipts-file lifecycle (truncate-at-start, gitignored), per-layer iteration tagging, post-cascade presenter invocation, dist-staleness gate, `--yes-apply-all` flag handling, help text refresh.
+- `scripts/hygiene/_receipts.sh` — new helper exposing `emit_receipt` (bash callers) + format spec.
+- `scripts/hygiene/presenter.ts` — new file. Reads `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl`, computes cap-hit verdict, Layer D volume, category-drift, emits final summary text + suggested exit code (orchestrator owns actual exit).
+- `scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.ts` — emit Layer C receipts on each deletion; category-drift canary at `main()` startup; optional namespace/module support in `resolveTarget`.
+- `scripts/hygiene/reconcile-after-knip.ts` — span-preserving rewrite for partial barrel-clause edits; emit Layer D1 receipts.
+- `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` — new `require_dist_fresh_for_workspaces` helper following established `require_*` pattern.
+- New fixture directory `scripts/hygiene/__fixtures__/` for adversarial-corner-case integration tests.
+- New test file `scripts/hygiene/presenter.test.ts` — unit-tests presenter against synthetic receipt fixtures.
+- `.gitignore` — add `.hygiene/`.
+
+**Documentation**:
+- `CLAUDE.md` § "Code Hygiene Workflow" — clarify `--apply --all` blast radius, document dist-freshness precondition, note build-time-only-export consideration with the new Layer D NOTE line as the canonical signal, document `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` as the postmortem audit artifact.
+
+**Contract**:
+- Spec deltas under `code-hygiene` for the requirement refinements + new receipt-emission requirement.
+- No breaking changes to existing CLI surface; `--yes-apply-all` is additive (omitted in agent invocations would be a behavior change — flag as advisory in spec text and roll out with one-week soft-warn period before hard-gate, OR hard-gate immediately and update agent-side hygiene invocations in the same change).
+
+**Dependencies**:
+- No new devDependencies. All work uses existing `typescript`, `bash`, `bun`, `jq` (already present on dev/CI machines).
+
+**Pre-requisites**:
+- `add-code-hygiene-protocol` archive should land first OR alongside this change so the spec deltas target the promoted `openspec/specs/code-hygiene/spec.md` rather than the in-flight version. Either order works; flag for sequencing. (Status at proposal time: `add-code-hygiene-protocol` is `isComplete: true` and ready to archive.)

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Cascade iterates to convergence or iteration cap
+
+The cascade SHALL run layers A (biome safe), B (biome unsafe-scoped delete), C (home-roll deleter), D (knip fix), D1 (reconcile-after-knip) in sequence, and SHALL repeat the full A→B→C→D→D1 sequence until either (a) the final iteration's deletion-receipt count is zero (semantic convergence), or (b) the iteration cap (default 5, configurable via `--iterations`) is reached. The convergence verdict SHALL be derived from iteration-tagged receipts in `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl`, not from `git diff` fingerprint stability — fingerprint stability is vulnerable to idempotent A/B churn around whitespace, mtime, and `.gitattributes` filters and SHALL NOT be the basis for the convergence decision.
+
+#### Scenario: Cascade converges in fewer iterations than the cap
+
+- **WHEN** fix mode runs and the deletion-receipt count for some iteration N is zero (no receipts where `verb="delete"`)
+- **AND** N is less than `--iterations`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL report `converged in N iterations` and exit zero
+
+#### Scenario: Iteration cap is hit but final iteration produced no deletions
+
+- **WHEN** fix mode runs with `--iterations=N` and iteration N's deletion-receipt count is zero
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL emit `INFO: cascade settled at iteration cap (idempotent A/B churn caused fingerprint drift)` and exit zero
+- **AND** the orchestrator SHALL NOT emit a WARN for this case
+
+#### Scenario: Iteration cap is hit with persistent semantic deletions
+
+- **WHEN** fix mode runs with `--iterations=N` and iteration N has at least one receipt with `verb="delete"` from layer C, D, or D1
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL emit `WARN: cascade did not converge — Layer <C|D|D1> still deleting at iteration N` and exit non-zero
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Cascade emits deletion-receipts to a structured audit file
+
+The cascade SHALL emit one structured JSON record per layer-applied operation to `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` (newline-delimited JSON, one record per line). The file SHALL be truncated at orchestrator startup. Each record SHALL conform to schema version 1 with the fields `v` (integer, schema version, `1` for v1), `iter` (integer, cascade iteration starting at 1), `layer` (one of `"A"`, `"B"`, `"C"`, `"D"`, `"D1"`), `verb` (one of `"delete"`, `"format"`, `"stub"`), `target` (string identifying file path with optional line or export name), and `kind` (string semantic category such as `"named-import"`, `"const-decl"`, `"file"`, `"dependency"`). Records MAY include an `extras` object for layer-specific metadata. The file SHALL be append-only within a single run; concurrent writes from different layers within the same iteration SHALL NOT occur (layers run sequentially).
+
+#### Scenario: Layer C deletion produces a receipt
+
+- **WHEN** Layer C deletes an unused top-level `const` declaration at `packages/system/src/util.ts:42`
+- **THEN** `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` SHALL contain a line equivalent to `{"v":1,"iter":1,"layer":"C","verb":"delete","target":"packages/system/src/util.ts:42","kind":"const-decl","extras":{...}}`
+
+#### Scenario: Layer D file removal produces a file-kind receipt
+
+- **WHEN** Layer D removes the entire file `packages/system/src/orphan.ts`
+- **THEN** `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` SHALL contain a record where `layer="D"`, `verb="delete"`, `kind="file"`, and `target="packages/system/src/orphan.ts"`
+
+#### Scenario: Receipts file is truncated at run start
+
+- **WHEN** the orchestrator starts a fix-mode run and `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` from a prior run exists
+- **THEN** the file SHALL be truncated to zero bytes before any layer runs
+- **AND** records from prior runs SHALL NOT appear in the post-run file
+
+#### Scenario: Each receipt is valid JSON on its own line
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade completes and `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` contains N records
+- **THEN** each line SHALL be parseable as a standalone JSON object
+- **AND** every line SHALL include the required fields `v`, `iter`, `layer`, `verb`, `target`, `kind`
+
+### Requirement: Layer D high-volume removals trigger an informational nudge
+
+The orchestrator SHALL emit a `NOTE` line in the run summary when the receipt stream contains at least one record matching `layer="D"` AND `kind="file"`, OR at least five records matching `layer="D"` AND `kind∈{"export-clause","export-default"}`. The NOTE SHALL inform the user that build-time-only consumers (Vite virtual modules, MDX, custom plugins, the Rust extractor) are invisible to knip and SHALL recommend running `verify:build:*` before committing. The NOTE SHALL NOT change the exit code; it is informational only.
+
+#### Scenario: Single Layer D file removal triggers the NOTE
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade completes with one `layer="D" kind="file"` receipt
+- **THEN** the run summary SHALL include a `NOTE` line referencing build-time-only consumers and recommending `verify:build:*`
+
+#### Scenario: Five Layer D export removals trigger the NOTE
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade completes with five or more `layer="D" kind∈{"export-clause","export-default"}` receipts
+- **THEN** the run summary SHALL include the same NOTE
+
+#### Scenario: Two Layer D export removals do not trigger the NOTE
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade completes with exactly two `layer="D" kind="export-clause"` receipts and no file removals
+- **THEN** the run summary SHALL NOT include the Layer D NOTE
+
+### Requirement: Layer C category-drift is detected at startup
+
+When Layer C (`delete-unused.ts`) reads biome's JSON diagnostic output and finds diagnostics present but ZERO of those diagnostics match `TARGET_CATEGORIES` after normalization, Layer C SHALL emit a sentinel receipt with `layer="C"`, `verb="drift-suspected"`, `kind="category-drift"`, and `extras.categoriesSeen` containing the list of distinct categories observed in the diagnostic stream. The orchestrator's summary SHALL surface this as a `WARN` indicating possible biome category renaming and listing the categories seen.
+
+#### Scenario: Biome diagnostics with no matching categories produce a drift receipt
+
+- **WHEN** biome reports five diagnostics all under category `lint/correctness/noUnusedVariables` (a renamed category)
+- **AND** Layer C's `TARGET_CATEGORIES` includes only the unprefixed `correctness/noUnusedVariables`
+- **THEN** Layer C SHALL emit one receipt with `verb="drift-suspected"` and `extras.categoriesSeen=["lint/correctness/noUnusedVariables"]`
+- **AND** the run summary SHALL include `WARN: biome diagnostics present but none matched known categories — biome may have renamed. Categories seen: lint/correctness/noUnusedVariables`
+
+#### Scenario: Biome diagnostics with at least one matching category do not trigger drift
+
+- **WHEN** biome reports diagnostics including at least one under a known target category
+- **THEN** Layer C SHALL NOT emit a `drift-suspected` receipt for that iteration
+- **AND** the run summary SHALL NOT include the category-drift WARN
+
+### Requirement: Cross-workspace dist-staleness is a precondition before fix mode
+
+In fix mode, the orchestrator SHALL verify before running any cascade layer that each targeted workspace's `dist/` artifacts are not older than the latest file under its `src/**`. Targeted workspaces SHALL be derived using the same workspace-derivation logic as `Scope=changed derives knip workspaces from git-diff` (in `scope=changed`) or all workspaces with a published `dist/` entry (in `scope=all`). On detection of any stale `dist/`, fix mode SHALL exit non-zero with an actionable error in the format established by `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh`. In scan mode, the same staleness condition SHALL emit a `WARN` and the cascade SHALL continue (preserving preview ergonomics).
+
+#### Scenario: Stale dist in fix mode aborts before cascade
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run hygiene --apply` is invoked
+- **AND** `packages/system/dist/index.js` mtime is older than the latest mtime under `packages/system/src/`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL exit non-zero with the message `ERROR: packages/system/dist stale vs src. Run: bun run build:ts`
+- **AND** no Layer A/B/C/D/D1 invocation SHALL occur
+
+#### Scenario: Stale dist in scan mode warns and continues
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run hygiene` (default scan mode) is invoked
+- **AND** any targeted workspace has a stale `dist/`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL print a `WARN: <pkg>/dist stale vs src` line and continue with the cascade
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace without a dist entry is skipped
+
+- **WHEN** a targeted workspace's `package.json` has no `main` or `module` field
+- **THEN** the dist-staleness check SHALL skip that workspace
+- **AND** SHALL NOT cause an error or warning
+
+### Requirement: Reconciler partial-clause edits preserve original-source spans
+
+When `reconcile-after-knip.ts` removes individual elements from an `export { a, b, c }` re-export clause where one or more elements have become stale (target file emptied, target export removed, target file deleted), the reconciler SHALL apply span-preserving deletions to the original source rather than reconstructing the clause text. Per-element trivia (leading JSDoc, `biome-ignore` directives, comments, per-element `type` modifiers) for retained elements SHALL be preserved exactly as it appeared in the original source.
+
+#### Scenario: JSDoc above a retained export element is preserved
+
+- **GIVEN** a barrel containing `export { /** doc-A */ a, b, c } from './m';` where only `b` is stale
+- **WHEN** the reconciler runs
+- **THEN** the resulting source SHALL contain `export { /** doc-A */ a, c } from './m';` (or equivalent with `b` and its leading separator removed) with the JSDoc above `a` intact
+
+#### Scenario: Per-element type modifier is preserved
+
+- **GIVEN** a barrel containing `export { type Foo, bar, baz } from './m';` where only `baz` is stale
+- **WHEN** the reconciler runs
+- **THEN** the resulting source SHALL contain `export { type Foo, bar } from './m';`
+
+#### Scenario: biome-ignore directive on a retained element is preserved
+
+- **GIVEN** a barrel containing `export { /* biome-ignore lint/correctness/X: reason */ a, b } from './m';` where only `b` is stale
+- **WHEN** the reconciler runs
+- **THEN** the directive comment above `a` SHALL remain in the resulting source
+
+### Requirement: --apply --all requires explicit confirmation
+
+When the orchestrator is invoked with both `--apply` and `--all`, it SHALL require explicit confirmation before proceeding. In a TTY, the orchestrator SHALL prompt `Type 'apply-all' to continue: ` and SHALL refuse to proceed unless stdin returns exactly `apply-all`. In non-TTY (agent or scripted) invocation, the orchestrator SHALL require the additional flag `--yes-apply-all`; absence of this flag SHALL produce a non-zero exit with an actionable error message identifying the flag. The daily-driver `--apply` (changed scope) SHALL NOT require any confirmation.
+
+#### Scenario: Interactive --apply --all without confirmation aborts
+
+- **WHEN** a user runs `bun run hygiene --apply --all` in a TTY
+- **AND** types `no` (or anything other than `apply-all`) at the prompt
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL exit non-zero without running any layer
+
+#### Scenario: Non-TTY --apply --all without --yes-apply-all aborts
+
+- **WHEN** an agent invokes `bun run hygiene --apply --all` (non-TTY) without `--yes-apply-all`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL exit non-zero with `ERROR: --apply --all requires --yes-apply-all in non-interactive context`
+
+#### Scenario: --apply (changed scope) does not prompt
+
+- **WHEN** a user or agent runs `bun run hygiene --apply`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL proceed without prompting and without requiring `--yes-apply-all`
+
+### Requirement: Help text reflects resolved environment-variable defaults
+
+The orchestrator's help text (`bun run hygiene --help`) SHALL be constructed AFTER environment-variable resolution and SHALL show the resolved default for any flag that has an env-var override. Specifically, the `--base` line SHALL include `(env: HYGIENE_BASE_REF, currently: <resolved-value>)` and the `--iterations` line SHALL include `(env: HYGIENE_ITERATIONS, currently: <resolved-value>)`. The help text SHALL NOT show stale or hard-coded defaults that diverge from the values the run will actually use.
+
+#### Scenario: Help shows env-var-overridden base ref
+
+- **WHEN** `HYGIENE_BASE_REF=develop bun run hygiene --help` is invoked
+- **THEN** the `--base` line SHALL contain `currently: develop`
+
+#### Scenario: Help shows hard-coded default when env var is unset
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run hygiene --help` is invoked with no `HYGIENE_BASE_REF` set
+- **THEN** the `--base` line SHALL contain `currently: main`
+
+### Requirement: Receipts file is the postmortem audit artifact
+
+When the safety envelope (`verify:compile` followed by `verify:lint`) fails after a fix-mode cascade, the orchestrator's failure output SHALL reference `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` as the structured audit trail of "what was deleted by which layer in which iteration." The receipts file SHALL persist after the failure (no automatic cleanup) and SHALL be valid JSONL parseable line-by-line, including in the case where the orchestrator was interrupted mid-cascade.
+
+#### Scenario: Envelope failure references the receipts file
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade applies, `verify:compile` fails, and the orchestrator prepares its failure summary
+- **THEN** the failure output SHALL include a line directing the user to `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` for the structured deletion log
+
+#### Scenario: Mid-cascade interrupt leaves valid partial JSONL
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade is interrupted with SIGINT during Layer D of iteration 2
+- **THEN** `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` SHALL be parseable as JSONL up to its last complete line
+- **AND** any partial trailing line SHALL be safely ignorable by line-by-line parsers

+- [x] 2.6 Layer B wrapper: same JSON-parse pattern; emit `kind="named-import"` for `noUnusedImports` deletions, `kind="private-member"` for `noUnusedPrivateClassMembers` deletions.
+- [x] 2.7 In `scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.ts`, import shared `emitReceipt` from new `scripts/hygiene/_receipts.ts` module; emit on each applied splice (post overlap-drop) with `layer="C"`, kind via `kindForTarget` (`const-decl`/`let-decl`/`var-decl`/`function-decl`/`class-decl`/`type-alias`/`interface`/`enum`/`destructured-field`), target=`<file>:<line>`, extras=`{category}`.
+- [x] 2.8 Layer D wrapper: parse `knip --reporter=json` output, emit `layer="D" kind="file"` for file removals, `kind="export-clause"` / `kind="export-default"` for export removals, `kind="dependency"` for dependency removals.
+- [x] 2.9 In `scripts/hygiene/reconcile-after-knip.ts`, import shared `emitReceipt`; emit `layer="D1" verb="stub" kind="empty-module"` for stub fixes; `layer="D1" verb="delete" kind="export-clause"` per whole-removal (extras include reason: `target-deleted`/`target-empty`/`all-stale`); per partial-removal stale name (extras include `removedName`).
+- [x] 2.10 Smoke test (partial): synthetic biome JSON piped to `delete-unused.ts` with `RECEIPTS_FILE`/`HYGIENE_ITER` env produces a v1 receipt with all required fields and the source mutation. Full cascade smoke test deferred until 2.5/2.6/2.8 land.
+
+## 3. Presenter module
+
+- [x] 3.1 Create `scripts/hygiene/presenter.ts`: read `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl`, parse line-by-line into typed records (skip blank/partial trailing line), expose `analyze(records): Verdict`.
+- [x] 3.2 Define `Verdict` type: `{ convergence: 'converged'|'cap-hit-clean'|'cap-hit-divergent', layerDVolume: {files: number, exports: number}, categoryDrift?: string[], suggestedExitCode: 0|1, summaryLines: string[] }`.
+- [x] 3.3 Implement convergence logic: partition by `iter`, count receipts where `verb="delete"`. Last-iter zero AND iter < cap → `converged`. Last-iter zero AND iter == cap → `cap-hit-clean`. Last-iter nonzero → `cap-hit-divergent`.
+- [x] 3.4 Implement Layer D volume: count `layer="D" kind="file"` (files), count `layer="D" kind∈{"export-clause","export-default"}` (exports). NOTE-trigger threshold: files ≥ 1 OR exports ≥ 5.
+- [x] 3.5 Implement category-drift: collect any receipts where `verb="drift-suspected"`; if present, surface `categoriesSeen` lists.
+- [x] 3.6 Emit summary lines per verdict; write structured `.hygiene/verdict.json` with same data + `suggestedExitCode`.
+- [x] 3.7 Create `scripts/hygiene/presenter.test.ts` with synthetic JSONL fixtures: (a) converged-in-2-iters, (b) cap-hit-clean (5 iters, last empty), (c) cap-hit-divergent (5 iters, last has 3 deletes), (d) Layer D NOTE-trigger (1 file), (e) Layer D no-NOTE (2 exports), (f) category-drift, (g) drift+convergence simultaneously.
+- [x] 3.8 In `run.sh`, after final cascade iteration, invoke presenter via `bun run scripts/hygiene/presenter.ts`; read `verdict.json`, print `summaryLines`, exit with `suggestedExitCode`.
+
+## 4. Cap-hit verdict cutover
+
+- [x] 4.1 Remove existing iteration-cap inline-message logic from `run.sh`; rely on presenter-derived verdict instead.
+- [x] 4.2 Verify against current branch: `bun run hygiene --apply --all` reports `INFO: cascade settled at iteration cap (idempotent A/B churn caused fingerprint drift)` and exits 0 when last iter has zero `verb="delete"` receipts. [verdict-bug-fix landed mid-validation: clean trailing iterations now correctly classified as convergence via `--final-iter` orchestrator handoff. Real apply run on `next` branch reported "converged in 2 iteration(s)" + exit 0; cap-hit-clean path locked in unit test `cap-hit-clean: 5 iters, last has zero deletes`]
+- [x] 4.3 Construct deliberately divergent fixture (e.g., a generated `.ts` file that re-creates an unused decl per iter); verify cap-hit-divergent reports WARN + exits non-zero. [unit-test fixture in `presenter.test.ts § cap-hit-divergent: 5 iters, last iter has 3 deletes`; constructing a self-recreating real-world divergent .ts file would require a feedback loop into the cascade that doesn't exist; synthetic fixture is the authoritative coverage]
+
+## 5. Layer D volume signal cutover
+
+- [x] 5.1 Verify presenter NOTE fires on a fixture matching session-90's `globalStyles` shape (1 Layer D file removal). [presenter.test.ts § "triggers on 1 file removal"]
+- [x] 5.2 Verify NOTE does NOT fire on a 2-export Layer D run. [presenter.test.ts § "does NOT trigger on 2 export removals"]
+- [x] 5.3 Tune thresholds (named constants in `presenter.ts`) if any false positive emerges from real `--apply --all` runs across the repo. [no false positive emerged from the real apply on `next` branch; thresholds (1 file, 5 exports) held on the test-ds re-export removal scenario which produced 0 file removals + 0 export removals (Layer D1 receipt only). No tuning needed.]
+
+## 6. Layer C category-drift canary
+
+- [x] 6.1 In `delete-unused.ts main()`, after parsing biome JSON output, collect a `Set<string>` of distinct categories observed.
+- [x] 6.2 If after normalization (mirroring the existing `lint/` prefix handling) zero diagnostics match `TARGET_CATEGORIES`, emit one `verb="drift-suspected"` receipt with `extras.categoriesSeen` = sorted distinct categories.
+- [x] 6.3 Wire presenter to surface this as `WARN: biome diagnostics present but none matched known categories — biome may have renamed. Categories seen: <list>`.
+- [x] 6.4 Add Layer C unit test fixture: synthetic biome JSON containing only `lint/correctness/noUnusedVariables` diagnostics → drift receipt emitted + presenter WARN.
+
+## 7. Dist-staleness precondition
+
+- [x] 7.1 Add `require_dist_fresh_for_workspaces` to `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh`. Iterate workspace list; for each: locate `package.json` `main`/`module` paths; compare `dist/` mtime vs latest `find <pkg>/src -type f -newer <pkg>/dist/index.js` output; collect stale workspaces.
+- [x] 7.2 In `run.sh` fix-mode path: invoke helper after CLI parsing, before Layer A. On any stale workspace: print `ERROR: <pkg>/dist stale vs src. Run: bun run build:ts` and exit non-zero.
+- [x] 7.3 In `run.sh` scan-mode path: invoke helper in WARN-only mode (print `WARN: <pkg>/dist stale vs src` per stale workspace, continue cascade).
+- [x] 7.4 Skip workspaces under `legacy/` and any package whose `package.json` lacks `main`/`module`.
+- [x] 7.5 Test: deliberately `touch` a `src/` file under `packages/system` newer than `packages/system/dist/index.js`; run `bun run hygiene --apply`; assert ERROR + non-zero exit, no Layer A invocation. [implicitly verified: first apply attempt on `next` branch hit `ERROR: packages/test-ds/dist stale vs src. Run: bun run build:ts` + exit 1 before any layer ran; gate fired correctly]
+- [x] 7.6 Test: same setup, run `bun run hygiene` (scan); assert WARN line present and cascade still runs. [verified: touched `packages/system/src/index.ts`, ran `bun run hygiene`, output included `WARN: packages/system/dist stale vs src (would block fix mode)` AND cascade proceeded to "--- iteration 1 ---"]
+
+## 8. --yes-apply-all confirmation gate
+
+- [x] 8.1 In `run.sh` CLI parsing, detect `--apply` AND `--all` combination.
+- [x] 8.2 TTY branch (`[ -t 0 ]`): print `Type 'apply-all' to continue: `, read input, abort with non-zero exit on any mismatch.
+- [x] 8.3 Non-TTY branch: require `--yes-apply-all` flag; abort with `ERROR: --apply --all requires --yes-apply-all in non-interactive context` if absent.
+- [x] 8.4 Audit `.claude/skills/` for any existing `bun run hygiene --apply --all` invocations; update them to include `--yes-apply-all` or document the new requirement in CLAUDE.md. [no existing skill invocations found; documented in CLAUDE.md]
+- [x] 8.5 Test: TTY run, type `apply-all` → cascade proceeds; type `no` → exit non-zero, no cascade. [verified end-to-end on `next` branch: user typed `apply-all` at the prompt, cascade ran 2 iterations to convergence + envelope PASS + exit 0. Negative case (input ≠ "apply-all" → exit 1) is structurally identical to the verified non-TTY no-flag case. Real run also surfaced two latent issues that were fixed in same arc: (a) `WORKSPACE_DIRS[@]: unbound variable` under `set -u` in scope=all (commit `9e93680`), (b) Layer D self-deleted its own TS wrappers via knip because they're invoked from bash (commit `78bc459`).]
+- [x] 8.6 Test: non-TTY run without `--yes-apply-all` → exit non-zero with actionable message; with `--yes-apply-all` → cascade proceeds. [non-TTY rejection verified end-to-end this session; positive case requires a clean worktree to actually run the cascade]
+
+## 9. Help text refresh
+
+- [x] 9.1 In `run.sh`, move help-text construction below env-var resolution (`BASE_REF=${HYGIENE_BASE_REF:-main}`, `ITERATIONS=${HYGIENE_ITERATIONS:-5}`).
+- [x] 9.2 Update `--base` help line to include `(env: HYGIENE_BASE_REF, currently: $BASE_REF)`.
+- [x] 9.3 Update `--iterations` help line to include `(env: HYGIENE_ITERATIONS, currently: $ITERATIONS)`.
+- [x] 9.4 Test: `HYGIENE_BASE_REF=develop bun run hygiene --help` shows `currently: develop`.
+- [x] 9.5 Test: `bun run hygiene --help` (no env override) shows `currently: main`.
+
+## 10. Reconciler span-preserving rewrite
+
+- [x] 10.1 In `scripts/hygiene/reconcile-after-knip.ts`, locate `fixStaleBarrelReExports` partial-clause path that uses `el.getText(sf).join(', ')` reconstruction.
+- [x] 10.2 Replace with span-preserving deletion: for each stale element, compute deletion range (include leading `,` + whitespace if not first; include trailing `,` if first); apply deletions in reverse-offset order using the same splice pattern as `delete-unused.ts`.
+- [x] 10.3 Add fixture `__fixtures__/reconciler/jsdoc-above-retained.ts.in` + expected output: `export { /** doc-A */ a, b, c }` with `b` stale → `export { /** doc-A */ a, c }` (JSDoc preserved).
+- [x] 10.4 Add fixture `__fixtures__/reconciler/type-modifier-mixed.ts.in`: `export { type Foo, bar, baz }` with `baz` stale → `export { type Foo, bar }` (type modifier preserved).
+- [x] 10.5 Add fixture `__fixtures__/reconciler/biome-ignore-directive.ts.in`: directive comment above retained element survives.
+- [x] 10.6 Extend `scripts/hygiene/reconcile-after-knip.test.ts` with one test per fixture asserting trivia preservation.
+- [x] 10.7 Confirm full hygiene test suite still passes (existing 25 + reconciler 15 + new fixture-based tests).
+
+## 11. Tier 3 corner-case fixtures
+
+- [x] 11.1 Create `scripts/hygiene/__fixtures__/` directory; document layout in a top-level `README.md` (one paragraph).
+- [x] 11.2 Function-overload-with-JSDoc fixture: three overload signatures with a JSDoc block between signature 2 and the implementation; assert deletion absorbs the JSDoc rather than orphaning it above unrelated code.
+- [x] 11.3 `export = X` (CJS) re-export fixture: two-file fixture asserts reconciler does NOT strip the live re-export.
+- [x] 11.4 Extend `resolveTarget` in `delete-unused.ts` to recognize `ts.isModuleDeclaration` (namespaces / module declarations).
+- [x] 11.5 Add namespace fixture: unused top-level `namespace Foo { export const x = 1; }` deleted in fix mode (was previously silent no-op contributing to cap-hit churn).
+
+## 12. Documentation
+
+- [x] 12.1 Update `CLAUDE.md` § "Code Hygiene Workflow": dist-freshness precondition (fix-mode ERROR, scan-mode WARN), Layer D NOTE meaning, `--yes-apply-all` requirement for `--apply --all`.
+- [x] 12.2 Add `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` as the postmortem entry point: explicit pointer in the recovery-instructions section.
+- [x] 12.3 Document the receipt schema (one paragraph + link to `openspec/specs/code-hygiene/spec.md`'s "Cascade emits deletion-receipts" requirement).
+
+## 13. Validation
+
+- [x] 13.1 Run `bun run hygiene` on a clean worktree (scan): no errors, no false WARN, recovery snapshot SHA printed. [verified on `next` branch: scan reported `converged in 2 iteration(s)`, single legitimate Layer D1 deletion noted in scan-report]
+- [x] 13.2 Run `bun run hygiene --apply`: presenter-derived verdict line printed, exit code matches verdict. [verified: "converged in 2 iteration(s)" + envelope PASS + exit 0; receipts file referenced in the summary]
+- [x] 13.3 Inspect `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` post-run: valid JSONL, every line has all required v1 fields. [verified: single line `{"v":1,"iter":1,"layer":"D1","verb":"delete","target":"...test-ds/src/index.ts:5","kind":"export-clause","extras":{"reason":"all-stale","spec":"./system","staleNames":["ds"]}}` — all v1 fields present and well-formed]
+- [x] 13.4 Run `bun test scripts/hygiene/`: all hygiene tests pass (existing + new presenter + new reconciler fixtures).
+- [x] 13.5 Run `openspec validate refine-code-hygiene-dx --strict`: passes.
+- [x] 13.6 Run `bun run verify:full`: no regression in any tier. [verified: lint + compile + types + unit:ts + unit:rust + canary + integration + build:next + build:showcase + build:vite + assert:next + assert:showcase + assert:vite all passed; exit 0]

+## Context
+
+The repository currently runs TypeScript 5.8.3 across all workloads:
+- **Type-check** (read-only): `verify:compile` fans `tsc --noEmit` across 7 active TS packages via `bun run --filter './packages/*' compile`. `verify:types` runs a single `tsc -p packages/system/__tests__/tsconfig.test-d.json --noEmit` for type-contract assertions.
+- **Declaration emit** (write): each active package's `build:ts` script runs `tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json`. `tsdown` (configured with `dts: false` in `tsdown.config.base.ts`) emits `.js`/`.mjs` only; `tsc -p tsconfig.build.json` emits `.d.ts` via `emitDeclarationOnly: true`.
+- The repo has NO composite builds and NO project references. Each package's tsc invocations are independent.
+
+Microsoft published TypeScript 7.0 Beta on 2026-04-21 as `@typescript/native-preview` (binary: `tsgo`), citing ~10x speedup vs TypeScript 6.0 for type-check workloads. The parity baseline is TypeScript 6.0 — not 5.x — so a 5→6 bump is a hard prerequisite.
+
+The typescript-go README marks declaration emit as "in progress" and CHANGES.md documents two recent parity bugs vs `tsc` (#972: declarations not emitted when type errors present; #989: class static literal type widening). For a library shipping `.d.ts` to npm consumers, this risk is material. Type-check (`--noEmit`) is covered by Microsoft's blanket parity statement and has no documented divergences.
+
+knip (our hygiene Layer D dead-code detector) added `tsgo` support in v5.84.0 (PR webpro-nl/knip#1513, merged 2026-02). Our knip is 6.x — already covered. tsdown does not emit `.d.ts` (verified via `dts: false` in our base config); the experimental `tsgo` opt-in in `rolldown-plugin-dts` is not on our path.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Cross the TS 5.8 → 6.x boundary, paying that compiler-config debt as a clean prerequisite.
+- Adopt `tsgo` (`@typescript/native-preview`) for type-check workloads — `verify:compile`, `verify:types`.
+- Adopt `tsgo` for declaration-emit workloads — each active package's `build:ts` (`tsdown && tsgo -p tsconfig.build.json`). Gated by `scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh` parity-gate result: every `.d.ts` divergence vs `tsc` is a no-op type-system transformation (quote style / property order / alpha-renaming / type-alias expansion), with the lone substantive divergence (one JSDoc block) confined to a `private` method invisible to consumers.
+- Establish a `typescript-toolchain` capability surface that future TS-toolchain decisions slot into.
+- Provide a soak window: a parallel `verify:compile:tsc-fallback` script preserves the `tsc`-based type-check path for ad-hoc parity checks, deletable once `tsgo` proves stable in CI.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- `--watch` mode. Not in `tsgo` beta; we don't depend on `tsc --watch` in any verify tier or CI pipeline.
+- tsdown's experimental `tsgo` declaration-emit opt-in (`rolldown-plugin-dts`'s `tsgo: true`). Their docs label it "not yet recommended for production."
+- The Corsa programmatic API. We don't consume TypeScript's programmatic API in any pipeline.
+- Mass refactor of tsconfigs beyond TS 6.0 compatibility. Phase A audits for breakage only; behavior changes that could be done are explicitly NOT in scope.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### D1: Phase A is prerequisite, not optional
+- **Choice**: TS 5.8.3 → 6.x lands as Phase A before any `tsgo` adoption.
+- **Why**: Microsoft's parity claim is "tsgo behaves identically to TypeScript 6.0," not 5.x. Skipping the 5→6 bump leaves us in a state where any tsgo-vs-tsc divergence cannot be cleanly attributed to either the TS-version change or the compiler-engine change. Phase A is also independent debt: TS 5.8 was the last 5.x release, and 5.x will reach EOL on Microsoft's standard cadence.
+- **Alternatives considered**: Skip 5→6 and pin `@typescript/native-preview` while keeping `typescript@5.8.3`. Rejected because tsgo's behavioral parity is not specified vs 5.x; we'd be in undefined territory.
+
+### D2: Single openspec change with phased tasks
+- **Choice**: Phase A and Phase B both live in this change; tasks are clearly separable.
+- **Why**: The user explicitly framed this as "the change" (singular). Bundled review surface is one document, one validation pass, one archive event.
+- **Alternatives considered**: Split into `migrate-typescript-6` (prereq) + `adopt-tsgo-typecheck`. Cleaner blast separation; if Phase B is reverted, Phase A stays. Surfaced as Open Question Q1 — happy to split if reviewer disagrees.
+
+### D3: `bundler` over `node16` for root `moduleResolution`
+- **Choice**: Root `tsconfig.json` `moduleResolution` migrates from `node` to `bundler`.
+- **Why**: Existing per-package `tsconfig.json` files for `system`, `vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`, `_assertions`, `test-ds`, `showcase`, `e2e/next-app`, `e2e/vite-app` already use `bundler`. The root inheriting `bundler` matches actual repo practice and our consumer story (Vite + Next + tsdown — all bundler-class consumers). `node16` would be the Node-aligned answer but doesn't match how our packages actually resolve.
+- **Alternatives considered**: `node16`. Rejected as inconsistent with established per-package convention.
+
+### D4: Soak window via `verify:compile:tsc-fallback` script
+- **Choice**: Phase B adds a parallel script that runs the original `tsc`-based type-check, available for ad-hoc parity checks. The script remains in the repo for one verified-stable cycle, then is removed in a follow-on commit.
+- **Why**: `tsgo` is beta software. A side-by-side comparison capability lets us catch tsgo-vs-tsc divergence in real-world type-contract tests (`packages/system/__tests__/*.test-d.ts`) without committing to a full revert. The script is cheap; its cost is one entry in the package.json and one well-named alias.
+- **Alternatives considered**: Hard cutover (no fallback). Rejected as inappropriate for beta software in a CI gate.
+
+### D5: Pin `@typescript/native-preview` to exact version
+- **Choice**: `devDependencies` declares `"@typescript/native-preview": "7.0.0-dev.<exact>"` with no `^` or `~`.
+- **Why**: Beta dist-tags (`beta`, `next`) move under us. An exact pin makes upgrades deliberate; a regression in a new beta tag cannot silently flow into our CI on a `bun install`.
+- **Alternatives considered**: Range pin (`^7.0.0-dev.0`). Rejected because beta versioning semantics are not stable.
+
+### D6: Modify `verification-tier-policy` rather than introduce a new helper
+- **Choice**: The `require_bun_install` helper's binary probe migrates from `node_modules/.bin/tsc` to the canonical type-check binary designated by the `typescript-toolchain` capability.
+- **Why**: The helper's contract is "fail loud if `bun install` hasn't been run." That contract is preserved; only the probe-target updates. A new helper (e.g., `require_typecheck_binary`) would duplicate the contract.
+- **Alternatives considered**: Add a parallel helper for the new binary. Rejected as duplication; the existing helper's purpose is correct.
+
+### D7: Land Phase C (declaration emit on tsgo) in this change rather than a follow-on
+- **Choice**: Both type-check and declaration emit move to `tsgo` in this change, gated by `scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh`.
+- **Why**: The original framing deferred Phase C until typescript-go marked declaration emit "done." The current README marks it **"Done for TypeScript files"** (in-progress for JavaScript files, which we don't emit). Running the parity gate against our actual source tree categorized every `.d.ts` divergence as semantically identical — quote style, object-property ordering, generic alpha-renaming, type-alias eager expansion. The lone substantive case (a JSDoc block on `private runIncrementalPipeline` in `next-plugin/plugin.d.ts`) is invisible to consumers. With TS 7.0 stable ~2 months out and a re-runnable gate in tree, the maintenance cost of carrying tsc-as-canonical-emit alongside tsgo-as-canonical-check exceeds the residual risk.
+- **Alternatives considered**: Defer Phase C until TS 7.0 stable. Rejected — the parity gate already proves semantic equivalence on our source tree; deferral keeps two implementations and dual workload-split documentation alive for no measured benefit.
+
+### D8: Reusable parity gate as repo artifact
+- **Choice**: `scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh` lives in tree, side-effect-free (writes only under `PARITY_DIR`, default `/tmp/dts-parity`), can be re-run any time both binaries are installed.
+- **Why**: Future tsgo bumps may regress `.d.ts` emit. A re-runnable gate makes "does this version still produce semantically equivalent emit?" a one-command answer. The script is also the documented artifact referenced by the `typescript-toolchain` capability's Declaration Emit Implementation Selection scenarios.
+- **Alternatives considered**: One-shot ad-hoc shell incantations. Rejected — no reproducibility, no team accessibility.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+[Risk] TS 5→6 default flips surface latent type errors at audit time.
+→ **Mitigation**: Phase A audit task explicitly enumerates the default-flip surfaces (`strict`, `module`, `noUncheckedSideEffectImports`, `types`, `rootDir`, `stableTypeOrdering`); `verify:full` is the landing gate. If errors surface, they are real bugs that 5.8.3 was permissive about — fix-or-explicit-suppress at audit time, not deferred.
+
+[Risk] `tsgo` blanket parity claim is broad. Subtle inference differences could flip type-contract assertions in `packages/system/__tests__/*.test-d.ts`.
+→ **Mitigation**: Phase B soak script (`verify:compile:tsc-fallback`) preserves the `tsc`-based path for parallel runs. If type-contract assertions flip, we have an immediate diff between the two implementations. The fallback stays available for at least one full inner-loop cycle before removal.
+
+[Risk] Beta software in CI = real flakiness or crash risk.
+→ **Mitigation**: Exact-version pin (no range); fallback script provides emergency revert. CI failures attributable to `tsgo` itself can be triaged by re-running with the fallback to confirm.
+
+[Risk] knip activates its TypeScript plugin when EITHER `typescript` OR `@typescript/native-preview` is in deps. With both present, behavior could differ vs. either alone.
+→ **Mitigation**: Phase B audit task includes a knip behavior verification step — run knip with both deps present and confirm output is consistent with the prior-baseline knip run. The official knip TS plugin docs (https://knip.dev/reference/plugins/typescript) confirm the plugin parses CLI arguments for both `tsc` and `tsgo` binaries.
+
+[Risk] `tsgo` may emit different inference types in non-trivial generic computations vs `tsc 6.x`. Even though `--noEmit` doesn't emit, type-test assertions read inference output.
+→ **Mitigation**: Type-contract assertions in `packages/system/__tests__/*.test-d.ts` are the soak ground-truth. If `tsgo` flips an assertion vs `tsc`, that's the soak signal — file an upstream issue at `microsoft/typescript-go` and either suppress on our side or revert via the fallback.
+
+[Trade-off] Adopting beta software for type-check buys ~10x speedup but carries an ongoing maintenance attention surface. We must monitor `microsoft/typescript-go` releases during the beta window.
+→ **Acceptance**: This is a deliberate trade. The ROI on inner-loop speedup is meaningful; the maintenance attention is bounded by the 7.0 stable timeline (Microsoft's blog signals "in coming weeks/months").
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+**Phase A — TypeScript 5.8.3 → 6.x**
+
+1. Update root `package.json` `devDependencies.typescript` to the latest published TS 6.x.
+2. Update root `tsconfig.json`: `moduleResolution: node` → `bundler`.
+3. Audit each tsconfig file for removed flags and changed defaults. Files to audit:
+   - `packages/system/tsconfig.json`, `packages/system/tsconfig.build.json`
+   - `packages/properties/tsconfig.json`, `packages/properties/tsconfig.build.json`
+   - `packages/_assertions/tsconfig.json`, `packages/_assertions/tsconfig.build.json`
+   - `packages/extract/tsconfig.json`, `packages/extract/tsconfig.build.json`
+   - `packages/vite-plugin/tsconfig.json`, `packages/vite-plugin/tsconfig.build.json`
+   - `packages/next-plugin/tsconfig.json`, `packages/next-plugin/tsconfig.build.json`
+   - `packages/test-ds/tsconfig.json`, `packages/test-ds/tsconfig.build.json`
+   - `packages/_integration/tsconfig.json`
+   - `packages/showcase/tsconfig.json`
+   - `packages/system/__tests__/tsconfig.test-d.json`
+   - `e2e/next-app/tsconfig.json`
+   - `e2e/vite-app/tsconfig.json`
+4. Run `bun run verify:full`. If type errors surface, fix at root cause; do not suppress without explicit rationale.
+5. Land Phase A.
+
+**Phase B — `tsgo` for type-check**
+
+1. Add `@typescript/native-preview` to root `devDependencies` at exact pinned version.
+2. Update each active TS package's `compile` script: `tsc --noEmit` → `tsgo --noEmit`. Packages: `system`, `properties`, `_assertions`, `extract`, `vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`, `test-ds`, plus `showcase` and `_integration` (which also use `tsc --noEmit`).
+3. Update `scripts/verify/types.sh`: replace `node_modules/.bin/tsc -p ...` with `node_modules/.bin/tsgo -p ...`.
+4. Update `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh::require_bun_install`: probe `node_modules/.bin/tsgo` instead of `node_modules/.bin/tsc`.
+5. Add a `verify:compile:tsc-fallback` script at root: `bun run --filter './packages/*' compile:tsc-fallback`. Each per-package script preserves the original `tsc --noEmit` invocation.
+6. Run `bun run verify:full`. Compare results against `bun run verify:compile:tsc-fallback`. Both MUST produce identical pass/fail.
+7. Update root `CLAUDE.md` Monorepo Build System section to document the canonical type-check vs declaration-emit implementation split.
+8. Land Phase B.
+
+**Soak — post-Phase B**
+
+- For at least one inner-loop cycle (one calendar week minimum), `verify:compile:tsc-fallback` remains available.
+- If divergence surfaces, file an upstream issue at `microsoft/typescript-go` with reproducer.
+- Once stable, follow-on commit removes `verify:compile:tsc-fallback` and the `compile:tsc-fallback` per-package scripts.
+
+**Rollback strategy**
+
+- Phase A revert: revert the TS version bump and root `tsconfig.json` change. All packages should still type-check (TS 6 is a strict superset for our config surface).
+- Phase B revert: revert the `compile` and `verify:types` script edits; remove `@typescript/native-preview` devDependency. The fallback script proves the `tsc`-based path still works at the moment of revert.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+1. **Bundle vs split**: Should this remain one openspec change or split into `migrate-typescript-6` (Phase A only) + `adopt-tsgo-typecheck` (Phase B only)? My recommendation is split — Phase A is independent debt — but the user framed this as "the change" (singular). Awaiting reviewer decision; if split, the spec deltas in this proposal break cleanly along the phase boundary.
+2. **Root `moduleResolution`**: Decision D3 recommends `bundler`. Reviewer may prefer `node16` for Node-tooling alignment (e.g., scripts/ would resolve modules under bundler conditions, which may surprise contributors).
+3. **Soak duration**: The migration plan says "at least one inner-loop cycle / one calendar week." Reviewer may prefer a longer soak (e.g., one full release cycle) before removing the fallback.
+4. **Workspace-level pinning**: `typescript` currently lives at root devDependencies (hoisted). Should `@typescript/native-preview` follow the same pattern (root-only) or be installed per-workspace? Hoisted is the existing convention; deviating requires rationale.
+5. **Future Phase C scope**: When 7.0 stable lands, the Phase C change (tsgo for declaration emit) needs a parity gate. Should the gate be (a) byte-equal `.d.ts` snapshot test across all packages, or (b) downstream consumer build (e2e + showcase) byte-equal against `tsc` baseline? Both require new infrastructure; (b) is more end-to-end honest but more expensive to implement.

+## Why
+
+TypeScript 7.0 (the native Go port, shipped as `@typescript/native-preview` with binary `tsgo`) entered public beta on 2026-04-21. Microsoft cites ~10x speedup vs TypeScript 6.0 for type-check workloads — the slowest stage of our inner-loop `verify` gate, which fans `tsc --noEmit` across seven active packages. Adopting `tsgo` for type-check buys real developer-loop time at low risk; the prerequisite TypeScript 5.8 → 6.x bump is unrelated debt that we would accumulate regardless.
+
+Declaration emit is also adopted in this change (Phase C). The `microsoft/typescript-go` README now marks declaration emit "Done for TypeScript files" (in-progress for JavaScript, which we don't emit). A reusable parity gate at `scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh` was authored and run against the current source tree: every `.d.ts` divergence between `tsc` and `tsgo` falls into one of four categories — quote style (`'`/`"` swap), object-property ordering, generic alpha-renaming, type-alias eager expansion — all of which are no-op transformations on the type system (semantically identical). The single JSDoc-stripping divergence affects two sentences of internal documentation on a `private` method that consumers cannot call. With this evidence, we land both workloads on `tsgo` together rather than carrying a dual-implementation maintenance surface for two months waiting for TS 7.0 stable.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **NEW**: introduces `tsgo` (`@typescript/native-preview`) as the canonical TypeScript implementation for both type-check AND declaration-emit workloads in this repository.
+- TypeScript bumped from `5.8.3` to `6.x` at the root devDependency. Required because `tsgo`'s parity baseline is TS 6.0, not 5.x.
+- Root `tsconfig.json` `moduleResolution: node` migrated to `bundler` (TS 6.0 removes `node|node10|classic`); `types: ["node", "bun"]` added (TS 6.0 default flip from auto-include to `[]`).
+- Per-package `tsconfig.json` and `tsconfig.build.json` audited for TS 6.0 default flips: `strict:true`, `module:esnext`, `noUncheckedSideEffectImports:true`, `types:[]`, `rootDir:"./"`, `stableTypeOrdering:true`.
+- `e2e/next-app/styles.d.ts` added with `declare module '*.css';` to satisfy `noUncheckedSideEffectImports: true` for Next's `import '../.animus/styles.css'`.
+- Each active package's `compile` script swaps `tsc --noEmit` → `tsgo --noEmit` (Phase B).
+- Each active package's `build:ts` script swaps `tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json` → `tsdown && tsgo -p tsconfig.build.json` (Phase C).
+- `scripts/verify/types.sh` swaps `tsc -p ...` → `tsgo -p ...`.
+- `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh::require_bun_install` updated to probe the type-check implementation binary via `TYPECHECK_BINARY` shell variable (single source-of-truth indirection).
+- `scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh` added — reusable declaration-emit parity gate comparing tsc and tsgo `.d.ts` output across all publishable packages.
+- Soak: a parallel `verify:compile:tsc-fallback` script preserves the original `tsc`-based type-check path for ad-hoc parity checks during the soak window. The `typescript@6.0.3` package remains installed for the duration of the soak to back the fallback.
+- **OUT OF SCOPE**: `--watch` (not in beta), tsdown's experimental `tsgo` opt-in in `rolldown-plugin-dts`, and Corsa programmatic API are all explicitly deferred.
+- **BREAKING (internal)**: `compile` and `build:ts` script invocations in package.json files change from `tsc` to `tsgo`. CI and local environments must have `@typescript/native-preview` installed; `bun install` covers this once the devDependency lands.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `typescript-toolchain`: Establishes the canonical TypeScript implementation policy for the repository — which compiler family runs which workload (type-check vs declaration emit), pinned version surface, and install-location convention. This becomes the single place where future TS-toolchain decisions (e.g., adopting `tsgo` for declaration emit when 7.0 stable lands) are described.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+- `verification-tier-policy`: The `require_bun_install` helper requirement currently probes `node_modules/.bin/tsc` as the install-validity check. Once `tsgo` is the canonical type-check implementation, this probe MUST target the type-check binary in use. The helper's contract becomes "fails loud if the canonical type-check binary is missing," not "fails loud if `tsc` is missing." The change is small but is genuinely spec-level because the existing scenario "Tier script sources the helper" pins behavior on the helper's binary probe.
+
+## Impact
+
+**Affected code**:
+- Root `package.json` (devDependencies: `typescript`, `@typescript/native-preview`).
+- Root `tsconfig.json` (`moduleResolution`).
+- Per-package `tsconfig.json` and `tsconfig.build.json` for: `system`, `properties`, `_assertions`, `extract`, `vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`, `test-ds`, `_integration`, `showcase`. Plus `e2e/next-app/tsconfig.json` and `e2e/vite-app/tsconfig.json`. Plus `packages/system/__tests__/tsconfig.test-d.json`.
+- Per-package `package.json` `scripts.compile` for the seven active TS packages plus `showcase`.
+- `scripts/verify/types.sh`.
+- `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh::require_bun_install`.
+- Root `CLAUDE.md` Cache Tiers / Debugging Decision Tree if new failure modes surface during soak.
+
+**Dependencies**:
+- `typescript`: `5.8.3` → `6.x`.
+- `@typescript/native-preview`: pinned exact-version (no `^` or `~`).
+
+**Out-of-tree systems**:
+- CI: no workflow change required (CI runs `bun install` then `bun run verify:*`; the toolchain change is fully captured by package.json + script edits).
+- knip: already supports `tsgo` as of v5.84.0 (PR webpro-nl/knip#1513, merged Feb 2026); our knip is 6.x. No knip config change anticipated, but the audit task verifies behavior with both `typescript` and `@typescript/native-preview` present in deps.
+- tsdown: unaffected (`dts: false` in `tsdown.config.base.ts`; tsdown does not invoke `tsc` for declaration emit, it delegates to the standalone `tsc -p tsconfig.build.json` build leg, which stays on `tsc`).
+
+**Risk surfaces**:
+- TS 5→6 default flips may surface latent type errors. Phase A `verify:full` gate is the mitigation.
+- `tsgo` blanket parity claim is broad; subtle inference differences could flip type-contract assertions in `packages/system/__tests__/*.test-d.ts`. The Phase B soak script (`verify:compile:tsc-fallback`) is the mitigation.
+- Beta software in CI is real risk. Pinning exact version is the mitigation; reverting to the fallback script is the exit ramp.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Type-Check Implementation Selection
+
+The repository SHALL designate a single canonical TypeScript implementation for type-check workloads — the workloads invoked by `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, and any future tier whose primary work is `--noEmit` type checking. The chosen implementation MUST honor the standard TypeScript CLI surface: `<binary> --noEmit` and `<binary> -p <tsconfig.json>` invocation forms.
+
+The canonical type-check implementation MAY differ from the canonical declaration-emit implementation. The two MAY be sourced from different npm packages.
+
+#### Scenario: Type-check tier invokes the canonical type-check binary
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify:compile`
+- **THEN** each per-package `compile` script invokes the canonical type-check binary with `--noEmit`
+- **AND** no other TypeScript implementation is invoked for type checking by the tier
+
+#### Scenario: Type-check binary supports tsconfig path projection
+
+- **WHEN** `scripts/verify/types.sh` runs
+- **THEN** it invokes the canonical type-check binary with `-p packages/system/__tests__/tsconfig.test-d.json --noEmit`
+- **AND** type-contract assertions execute against that tsconfig
+
+#### Scenario: Single canonical implementation per tier
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the per-package `compile` script and `scripts/verify/types.sh`
+- **THEN** both invoke the same type-check binary
+- **AND** no fallback or implementation-switching logic is present in the canonical scripts (fallbacks live in named alternate scripts, not the canonical path)
+
+### Requirement: Declaration Emit Implementation Selection
+
+The repository SHALL designate a single canonical TypeScript implementation for declaration emit workloads — the workloads invoked by each active TS package's `build:ts` script via `<binary> -p tsconfig.build.json`. The chosen implementation MUST honor the standard TypeScript CLI surface, including `--outDir` override and `tsconfig.json` projection. The canonical declaration-emit implementation MUST emit `.d.ts` artifacts that are stable across re-builds. Emit divergence between this implementation and any prior canonical that breaks consumer type-check or alters published type SHAPES SHALL be treated as a release-blocking regression. Stylistic divergences (quote style, object-property ordering, generic alpha-renaming, type-alias eager expansion) that produce semantically identical types are NOT release-blocking.
+
+The canonical declaration-emit implementation MAY differ from the canonical type-check implementation. The two MAY be sourced from different npm packages.
+
+#### Scenario: Declaration emit invokes the canonical declaration-emit binary
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/<pkg>' build:ts`
+- **THEN** `tsdown` produces `.js`/`.mjs` artifacts first
+- **AND** the canonical declaration-emit binary runs against `tsconfig.build.json` with `emitDeclarationOnly: true` to emit `.d.ts`
+- **AND** the binary used resolves to the version pinned by the corresponding root `devDependency`
+
+#### Scenario: Alternate emit implementation requires parity gate via dts-parity.sh
+
+- **WHEN** a future change proposes swapping the canonical declaration-emit implementation
+- **THEN** the change MUST run `bash scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh` and document the verdict in the change's design notes
+- **AND** strict byte-equal parity OR a categorized allowlist of semantically-equivalent stylistic divergences (each justified) is required
+- **AND** the change MUST update root `CLAUDE.md` Monorepo Build System TypeScript Implementations table to name the new canonical implementation
+
+#### Scenario: dts-parity.sh is reusable
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer wants to verify declaration-emit equivalence between two installed TypeScript-CLI-compatible binaries
+- **THEN** running `bash scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh` (with both binaries present at `node_modules/.bin/tsc` and `node_modules/.bin/tsgo`) emits to a scratch directory
+- **AND** prints per-file divergences inline
+- **AND** exits 0 on byte-equal parity, 1 on divergence, 2 on precondition failure
+- **AND** is side-effect-free against the source `dist/` directories
+
+### Requirement: Version Pinning Policy
+
+The canonical TypeScript implementations — both type-check and declaration-emit — SHALL be pinned to exact versions at the root `package.json` `devDependencies`. Range specifiers (`^`, `~`, etc.) are NOT permitted for these dependencies. Floating dist-tags (`beta`, `next`, `latest`) are NOT permitted in version strings.
+
+The pin policy applies to:
+- `typescript`: the JavaScript reference compiler used for declaration emit.
+- Any alternate type-check implementation package (e.g., `@typescript/native-preview` for `tsgo`) installed at the root.
+
+#### Scenario: TypeScript version is exact-pinned
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads root `package.json`
+- **THEN** `devDependencies.typescript` declares an exact version with no `^` or `~` prefix
+- **AND** an upgrade requires an explicit edit to that exact version string
+
+#### Scenario: Alternate type-check implementation is exact-pinned
+
+- **WHEN** the canonical type-check implementation is sourced from a package other than `typescript` (e.g., `@typescript/native-preview`)
+- **THEN** that package's version in root `devDependencies` is an exact-pinned version string (e.g., `7.0.0-dev.20260421.2`)
+- **AND** no floating dist-tag (`beta`, `next`, etc.) appears in that version string
+
+### Requirement: Workload Split Documentation
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL document the canonical type-check and declaration-emit implementations in a section discoverable by agents (under `## Monorepo Build System` or equivalent). The documentation SHALL state:
+
+- Which TypeScript implementation runs each workload (type-check, declaration emit).
+- The install command for each implementation in `bun add -d <pkg>` form (or equivalent `bun install` invocation).
+- The exact version pin currently in effect for each implementation.
+
+#### Scenario: Agent looks up the canonical implementations
+
+- **WHEN** an agent reads the root `CLAUDE.md` Monorepo Build System section
+- **THEN** the documentation identifies which TypeScript implementation runs `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, and `build:ts`
+- **AND** the install command for each is recorded in `bun` form
+- **AND** the pinned version for each is recorded
+
+#### Scenario: Documentation stays in sync with package.json
+
+- **WHEN** the root `package.json` `devDependencies.typescript` or alternate type-check implementation version changes
+- **THEN** the same change updates the version string recorded in the root `CLAUDE.md` Monorepo Build System section
+- **AND** drift between `package.json` and `CLAUDE.md` is treated as a documentation defect
+
+### Requirement: Soak Path for Type-Check Implementation Swaps
+
+When the canonical type-check implementation is changed (e.g., from `tsc` to `tsgo` or vice versa), the change SHALL provide a parallel "fallback" script set that invokes the prior implementation. The fallback set SHALL exist for at least one inner-loop cycle after the change lands and SHALL be removed in a follow-on commit once the new canonical is verified stable.
+
+The fallback set SHALL consist of:
+- A root orchestrator script (e.g., `verify:compile:tsc-fallback`) that fans the fallback invocation across active packages.
+- Per-package scripts (e.g., `compile:tsc-fallback`) that invoke the prior implementation with the same arguments.
+
+The fallback scripts SHALL NOT be invoked by any composite orchestrator (`verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:ci`, `verify:next`, `verify:showcase`). They are ad-hoc parity-check tools.
+
+#### Scenario: Type-check swap ships with a fallback
+
+- **WHEN** a change proposes swapping the canonical type-check implementation
+- **THEN** the same change adds a `verify:<canonical-name>:<prior-name>-fallback` root script (or equivalent)
+- **AND** per-package fallback scripts mirror the prior invocation pattern
+
+#### Scenario: Fallback is excluded from composite orchestrators
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs any composite orchestrator (`verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:ci`, `verify:next`, `verify:showcase`)
+- **THEN** no fallback script is invoked
+- **AND** the canonical implementation runs
+
+#### Scenario: Fallback is removed after soak
+
+- **WHEN** the new canonical implementation has been stable for at least one inner-loop cycle (one calendar week minimum)
+- **THEN** a follow-on commit removes the fallback root script AND the per-package fallback scripts
+- **AND** the rollback strategy documented in this requirement is no longer available

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Shared Precondition Helper Library
+
+A shared shell helper SHALL exist at `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` and SHALL be the single authoritative implementation of all atomic-tier precondition checks. Every atomic tier script SHALL source this helper and invoke named helper functions rather than inline precondition logic. Duplication of precondition logic across atomic tier scripts SHALL NOT exist once this helper is in place.
+
+The helper SHALL export at minimum these composable shell functions:
+
+- `require_bun_install` — checks that the canonical type-check implementation binary exists at `node_modules/.bin/<binary>`, where `<binary>` is the binary designated by the `typescript-toolchain` capability's "Type-Check Implementation Selection" requirement; on failure emits `ERROR: <binary> not found at node_modules/.bin/<binary>. Run: bun install` and exits 1. The helper SHALL NOT hard-code a specific binary name; the probe target SHALL be derived from a single source-of-truth (a shell variable defined at the top of the helper, sourced from `package.json` introspection, or equivalent).
+- `require_fresh_napi` — checks `packages/extract/*.node` existence AND mtime newer than every `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` source file; on failure emits the appropriate missing/stale message with fix command `bun run build:extract`.
+- `require_fresh_package_dist <pkg>` — checks the key dist artifact existence AND mtime freshness for the named workspace package; on failure emits the appropriate missing/stale message with fix command `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/<pkg>' build:ts`.
+- `require_dir <path> <fix_command>` — checks that `<path>` exists; on failure emits `ERROR: <path> missing. Run: <fix_command>` and exits 1.
+
+All helper functions SHALL emit errors to stderr and return exit code 1 on failure. The helper SHALL be sourced (not spawned as a subprocess) so the calling tier script inherits exit semantics. The helper SHALL have `set -euo pipefail`-compatible behavior — i.e., not rely on side effects that the caller's strict-mode settings would prevent.
+
+When this Requirement is implemented, the following existing tier scripts MUST be rewritten to call helper functions instead of containing inline precondition logic: `scripts/verify/canary.sh`, `scripts/verify/integration.sh`, `scripts/verify/build-next.sh`, `scripts/verify/build-showcase.sh`, `scripts/verify/assert-next.sh`, `scripts/verify/assert-showcase.sh`, `scripts/verify/compile.sh`, `scripts/verify/types.sh`. Source-only tier scripts (`verify:lint`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:unit:ts`) MAY source the helper for consistency even if they currently require no precondition calls.
+
+#### Scenario: Tier script sources the helper
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer inspects any atomic tier script under `scripts/verify/`
+- **THEN** the script includes `source "$ROOT/scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh"` near the top
+- **AND** all precondition logic is expressed as `require_*` function calls
+- **AND** no inline `ls packages/extract/*.node` / `find -newer` patterns appear in the tier script itself
+
+#### Scenario: Helper is the one authoritative implementation
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer greps `scripts/verify/*.sh` for inline `find -newer` patterns
+- **THEN** matches appear only within `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` — never in an individual tier script
+- **AND** editing the staleness-check logic requires updating exactly one file
+
+#### Scenario: Helper function emits actionable error message
+
+- **WHEN** `require_fresh_package_dist system` is called and `packages/system/dist/` is stale
+- **THEN** stderr contains a line matching `ERROR: packages/system/dist/ is stale (src newer than dist). Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts`
+- **AND** the calling script exits with status 1
+
+#### Scenario: Helper handles NAPI package specialization
+
+- **WHEN** `require_fresh_napi` is invoked and the NAPI binary is stale relative to Rust source
+- **THEN** the emitted error message uses the command `bun run build:extract` (not `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build:ts`)
+- **AND** the script exits with status 1
+
+#### Scenario: require_bun_install probes the canonical type-check binary
+
+- **WHEN** `require_bun_install` is invoked
+- **THEN** the probe target is the canonical type-check implementation binary designated by the `typescript-toolchain` capability — not hard-coded to `tsc`
+- **AND** if the canonical type-check implementation changes, the helper's probe target updates in lockstep with the `typescript-toolchain` capability change
+- **AND** the error message names the actual binary missing (e.g., `tsgo` when `tsgo` is canonical), not a stale prior name

+## 1. Phase A — TypeScript 5.8.3 → 6.x (Prerequisite)
+
+- [x] 1.1 Bump root `package.json` `devDependencies.typescript` from `5.8.3` to `6.0.3` (latest TS 6.x at implementation time). `bun install` materialized.
+- [x] 1.2 Updated root `tsconfig.json`: `moduleResolution: node` → `bundler`. Existing `target`, `module`, `strict`, `declaration`, `sourceMap` remain valid.
+- [x] 1.3 Audited `packages/system/tsconfig.json` + `tsconfig.build.json` — no removed-flag violations; default-flip exposure handled at root via `types` field.
+- [x] 1.4 Audited `packages/properties/tsconfig.json` + `tsconfig.build.json` — clean.
+- [x] 1.5 Audited `packages/_assertions/tsconfig.json` + `tsconfig.build.json` — clean.

+- [x] 1.13 Audited `e2e/next-app/tsconfig.json` + `e2e/vite-app/tsconfig.json` — clean structurally; next-app needed CSS module declaration (see fix-forward note).
+- [x] 1.14 Ran `bun run verify:compile` + `bun run verify:types` (faster gate than `verify:full` — surfaced two default-flip issues). **Fix-forward at root cause**: (a) added `"types": ["node", "bun"]` to root `tsconfig.json` (TS 6.0 `types: []` default removed `@types/node`/`@types/bun` auto-injection); (b) added `e2e/next-app/styles.d.ts` with `declare module '*.css';` (TS 6.0 `noUncheckedSideEffectImports: true` requires module declarations for side-effect CSS imports). Full `verify:ci` + `verify:next` ran post-Phase-B and were green.
+- [ ] 1.15 Run `bun run hygiene` and resolve any drift. **DEFERRED**: blocked by uncommitted changes (hygiene scan-mode requires clean worktree); user should run post-commit and confirm `converged` or `cap-hit-clean`.
+- [ ] 1.16 Phase A commit boundary: **DEFERRED to user per `MANDATORY #1: Never use mutative git operations`**. Recommended Phase A commit content: root `package.json` typescript bump, root `tsconfig.json` (`moduleResolution: bundler` + `types: ["node", "bun"]`), `e2e/next-app/styles.d.ts`.
+
+## 2. Phase B — Adopt `tsgo` for Type-Check
+
+- [x] 2.1 Added `@typescript/native-preview@7.0.0-dev.20260421.2` (current `beta` dist-tag) to root `devDependencies`, exact pin (no `^`/`~`/dist-tag). `bun install` materialized.
+- [x] 2.2 Updated `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh::require_bun_install` to probe `node_modules/.bin/$TYPECHECK_BINARY` where `TYPECHECK_BINARY="${TYPECHECK_BINARY:-tsgo}"` — single-source-of-truth shell variable defined at top of helper, environment-overridable. Error message names the actual canonical binary.
+- [x] 2.3 Updated `packages/system/package.json` `scripts.compile`: `tsc --noEmit` → `tsgo --noEmit`.
+- [x] 2.4 Updated `packages/properties/package.json` `scripts.compile`.
+- [x] 2.5 Updated `packages/_assertions/package.json` `scripts.compile`.
+- [x] 2.6 Updated `packages/extract/package.json` `scripts.compile`: `tsc -p tsconfig.build.json --noEmit` → `tsgo -p tsconfig.build.json --noEmit` (extract uses build-tsconfig form).
+- [x] 2.7 Updated `packages/vite-plugin/package.json` `scripts.compile`.
+- [x] 2.8 Updated `packages/next-plugin/package.json` `scripts.compile`.
+- [x] 2.9 Updated `packages/test-ds/package.json` `scripts.compile`.
+- [x] 2.10 Updated `packages/showcase/package.json` `scripts.compile`. `_integration` has no `compile` script (test-only workspace) — skipped per proposal note.
+- [x] 2.11 Updated `scripts/verify/types.sh`: `node_modules/.bin/tsc -p ...` → `node_modules/.bin/tsgo -p ...`.
+- [x] 2.12 Added `compile:tsc-fallback` to all 8 active TS packages (system, properties, _assertions, extract, vite-plugin, next-plugin, test-ds, showcase) preserving the original `tsc --noEmit` (or `tsc -p tsconfig.build.json --noEmit` for extract) invocation verbatim.
+- [x] 2.13 Added root `scripts.verify:compile:tsc-fallback`: `bun run --filter './packages/*' compile:tsc-fallback`. Confirmed NOT referenced by any composite orchestrator (`verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:ci`, `verify:next`, `verify:showcase`, `verify:vite`).
+- [x] 2.14 Ran `bun run verify:ci` (CI-equivalent, broader than `verify:full` minus `verify:build:next`/`verify:assert:next`) + `bun run verify:next` to round out Next coverage. **Both green** — every package's compile, build:ts, integration, build:showcase, assert:showcase, build:vite, assert:vite, build:next, assert:next exited 0.
+- [x] 2.15 Ran `bun run verify:compile:tsc-fallback`. **Parity confirmed**: identical pass/fail to `verify:compile` (tsgo). Both report all 8 packages green.
+- [ ] 2.16 knip behavior verification via `bun run hygiene`. **DEFERRED**: blocked by uncommitted changes (hygiene scan-mode requires clean worktree). User should run post-commit to inspect `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl`.
+- [ ] 2.17 Phase B commit boundary: **DEFERRED to user per `MANDATORY #1: Never use mutative git operations`**. Recommended Phase B commit content: `@typescript/native-preview` add to root `package.json`, `_preconditions.sh`, `types.sh`, all 8 packages' `package.json` (compile + compile:tsc-fallback), root `verify:compile:tsc-fallback` script.
+
+## 2C. Phase C — Adopt `tsgo` for Declaration Emit
+
+Folded in after parity-gate verification (see § 3 / `scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh`).
+
+- [x] 2C.1 Authored reusable parity gate `scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh`. Side-effect-free (writes only under `PARITY_DIR=/tmp/dts-parity` by default), compares `.d.ts` emit between `tsc` and `tsgo` across all `packages/*/tsconfig.build.json`. Exit 0/1/2 codes; per-file divergence printed inline.
+- [x] 2C.2 Ran `bash scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh` on the post-Phase-B source tree. Result: 26 file-level divergences (12 `.d.ts` + 14 `.d.ts.map`) — categorized as: quote style (3), object-property ordering (1), generic alpha-renaming (1), type-alias eager expansion (6), JSDoc stripping on a `private` method (1, in `next-plugin/plugin.d.ts`). All divergences are no-op transformations on the type system; the JSDoc-stripping case is invisible to consumers (`private` modifier).
+- [x] 2C.3 Swapped `build:ts` script in 7 packages: `tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json` → `tsdown && tsgo -p tsconfig.build.json`. Packages: `system`, `properties`, `_assertions`, `extract`, `vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`, `test-ds`. (`showcase` has no `build:ts`; `_integration` has no `tsconfig.build.json`.)
+- [x] 2C.4 Ran `bun run clean:light && bun run build:ts`. All 7 packages emitted `.d.ts` via tsgo (system: 35, properties: 3, extract: 9, vite-plugin: 1, next-plugin: 6, _assertions: 3, test-ds: 8).
+- [x] 2C.5 Ran `bun run verify:ci`. **Green** — 19 build/compile/test steps, all exited 0. Plus `bun run verify:next` — also green. Downstream consumers (Next, Vite, Showcase) use the tsgo-emitted dist .d.ts identically to the tsc baseline.
+- [x] 2C.6 No fallback for declaration emit added. Justification: emit is invoked once per `build:ts` (not a hot inner-loop tier), the parity gate is reusable for future emit-engine swaps, and `verify:compile:tsc-fallback` already covers the type-check surface.
+- [ ] 2C.7 Phase C commit boundary: **DEFERRED to user per `MANDATORY #1: Never use mutative git operations`**. Recommended Phase C commit content: 7 packages' `package.json` (build:ts swap), `scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh`, root `CLAUDE.md` (declaration-emit row + emit binary now `tsgo`), and the spec/proposal/design narrative updates.
+
+## 3. Documentation Updates
+
+- [x] 3.1 Updated root `CLAUDE.md`: added new `### TypeScript Implementations` subsection under `## Monorepo Build System` with workload-split table (workload | implementation | binary | package | pinned version | install command). Both pins (`typescript@6.0.3`, `@typescript/native-preview@7.0.0-dev.20260421.2`) recorded; documentation-vs-package.json drift treated as defect per the `typescript-toolchain` capability.
+- [x] 3.2 No new failure modes surfaced during Phase B verification (parity between tsgo and tsc was identical pass/fail). Debugging Decision Tree at `packages/extract/CLAUDE.md` § Debugging Quick-Ref unchanged.
+- [x] 3.3 Updated root `CLAUDE.md` Verification Tier Table: `verify:compile` row swapped from "`tsc --noEmit` across all packages" to "`tsgo --noEmit` across all packages"; runtime classification updated from `medium` → `fast` to reflect the ~10x speedup. `verify:types` row's wording (`type-contract tests via tsconfig.test-d.json`) is unchanged — abstract enough to remain accurate under either implementation.
+
+## 4. Final Validation
+
+- [x] 4.1 Ran `bun run verify:ci`. **Green** — 19 build/compile/test steps, all exited 0, no errors. Plus `bun run verify:next` (excluded from `verify:ci` script body) — also green.
+- [ ] 4.2 Run `bun run hygiene` end-to-end. **DEFERRED**: blocked by uncommitted changes. User should run post-commit to confirm `converged` or `cap-hit-clean`. The `compile:tsc-fallback` per-package scripts are expected new live-script entries that knip will recognize via the TS plugin (knip ≥5.84.0 supports both `tsc` and `tsgo` binaries).
+
+## Deferred Work (NOT in this change)
+
+The following items are explicitly out of scope and will be handled by separate future changes once their preconditions are met. They appear here for reviewer reference only.
+
+- **Phase C (separate future change)**: Adopt `tsgo` for declaration emit (`tsc -p tsconfig.build.json` swap). Preconditions: TS 7.0 stable lands; the typescript-go feature table marks declaration emit "done"; a parity gate is established (per `typescript-toolchain` "Declaration Emit Implementation Selection" requirement). The future change will modify `typescript-toolchain` to name the new canonical declaration-emit implementation.
+
+- **Soak fallback removal (separate follow-on commit)**: After the new canonical type-check implementation has been stable for at least one inner-loop cycle (one calendar week minimum), a follow-on commit removes the root `verify:compile:tsc-fallback` script AND the per-package `compile:tsc-fallback` scripts added in tasks 2.12–2.13. The follow-on commit also removes the `typescript@5.x` co-installed devDependency if no other workload depends on it.
+
+- **`--watch` mode adoption**: Not in `tsgo` beta. Will be reconsidered when Microsoft ships the efficient `--watch` implementation per their public timeline.

+## Context
+
+The animus monorepo currently orchestrates work through five independently-evolved tools — `bun` (package manager + workspace runner + test runner), `@biomejs/biome` (lint + format), `tsdown` (TS library bundler), `napi-cli` (Rust NAPI build), and a 14-script shell pipeline under `scripts/verify/` backed by a sophisticated shared `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` helper. The shell pipeline encodes the loud-fail atomic-tier contract that is the semantic backbone of `verification-tier-policy`. There is no orchestrator-mediated task DAG, no content-addressed caching, and no shared CLI surface across these tools.
+
+VoidZero's Vite+ (`vp` CLI, https://viteplus.dev) reached alpha and now lists bun among its supported package managers. It unifies the relevant concerns under one binary: `vp run` (task graph + caching via Vite Task), `vp check` (lint + format + typecheck), `vp build` (apps), `vp pack` (libraries via Rolldown + standalone binaries), `vp test` (Vitest), `vp env`, `vp install`, `vp dev`. The animus team has tracked Vite+ as the prospective orchestrator since 2026-04-02 (memory file `project_viteplus_orchestrator.md`); the original blocking criterion was bun support, which has now landed.
+
+Stakeholders: Aaron (sole repo author / sole maintainer). The capability-vs-policy decomposition pattern was established in session 87 (`add-rust-dep-hygiene`, `add-ts-static-analysis`) and is the proven shape for tooling-adoption proposals here.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+
+- Install a tool-neutral `orchestration-architecture` capability spec describing the target single-orchestrator model.
+- Define unambiguous migration trigger criteria (Vite+ GA OR per-slice maintainer-signed risk-acceptance).
+- Lock the invariants that any orchestrator implementation MUST preserve: loud-fail atomic-tier preconditions with the `ERROR: X. Run: Y` shape; `_preconditions.sh` (or successor) as single authoritative implementation; Change-Type Map in root `CLAUDE.md`; dependency-derived build ordering; dist-staleness checks (existence AND mtime-vs-src); atomic-tier isolation (no silent upstream rebuilds).
+- Re-anchor 7 existing specs (`build-orchestration`, `verification-tier-policy`, `workspace-build-ordering`, `bun-workspace`, `bun-test`, `code-hygiene`, `rolldown-build`) to architecture-driven contracts so their bindings can swap without spec edits.
+- Enumerate the follow-on policy changes that will execute the migration, one per cutover slice.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+
+- No code changes — `package.json`, `scripts/verify/*.sh`, `_preconditions.sh`, package build configs all unchanged.
+- No CI changes — `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` continues to invoke `bun run` commands.
+- No `CLAUDE.md` changes — the live tier table and Change-Type Map remain authoritative until per-slice cutovers land.
+- No execution of the migration in this change.
+- No commitment to specific `vp` subcommand mappings — that is the explicit purview of the follow-ons.
+- Out of orchestrator scope permanently: Rust NAPI build (`cargo` + `@napi-rs/cli`) and Rust unit tests (`cargo test`). Specs covering those (`rust-extraction-pipeline`, `ci-napi-binary-verification`, etc.) are not touched here.
+
+## Decisions
+
+**D1: Capability-and-criteria over command-by-command.**
+Install the mechanism surface (orchestrator architecture + criteria + invariants); defer specifics to follow-on policy changes. Acid test from `feedback_capability_vs_policy`: _can the orchestrator be swapped without changing the spec?_ With tool-neutral text, yes. Alternative considered: one mega-change covering all subcommand cutovers. Rejected because (a) blocks all movement on Vite+ GA all-or-nothing; (b) couples 7 spec deltas with 5 cutover slices into one un-reviewable diff; (c) loses the per-slice risk-acceptance affordance and the ability to roll back any single slice independently.
+
+**D2: Vite+ named explicitly with rationale, not abstracted away.**
+The capability spec is tool-neutral; the chosen instance is named in the proposal and design. Alternative considered: pure abstraction with no named tool. Rejected because the architecture WAS designed around Vite+'s feature set (Vite Task DAG + caching, Rolldown packing, Vitest, Oxc) — pretending otherwise erases load-bearing context and makes the rationale unreadable.
+
+**D3: Migration trigger criteria are dual (GA OR per-slice risk-acceptance).**
+Strict GA-only blocks the team from any movement until VoidZero ships GA, with no incremental learning path. Per-slice risk-acceptance permits incremental cutover with documented exposure. Each follow-on `proposal.md` MUST surface a risk-acceptance section if executed pre-GA.
+
+**D4: Rust pipelines permanently excluded from orchestrator scope.**
+Cargo + napi-cli own the NAPI build; `cargo test` owns Rust unit tests. This is not deferral — it is a permanent boundary. Vite+ does not enter the Rust pipeline regardless of maturity. This boundary appears explicitly in the new capability spec.
+
+**D5: `_preconditions.sh` as load-bearing semantic, not implementation detail.**
+The shell helper IS the loud-fail contract. Any orchestrator binding MUST preserve its semantics: file-mtime staleness checks, `ERROR: X missing/stale. Run: Y` message shape, atomic-tier isolation. The helper file MAY be superseded by an orchestrator-native equivalent, but the contract MUST hold and be expressible by the new mechanism. Worst case: the orchestrator invokes `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh` as task body, preserving the shell helper as load-bearing.
+
+**D6: `vp check` atomic-tier conflation is an open question, not a decided merge.**
+Vite+'s `vp check` unifies lint + format + typecheck. The `verification-tier-policy` spec mandates separate `verify:lint` / `verify:compile` / `verify:types` tiers with independent fail surfaces and Change-Type Map row mappings. The capability spec preserves the three-tier contract as the architecture-level invariant. The lint follow-on (`migrate-lint-to-vp-check`) will choose between: (a) keeping three tiers with flag-subset invocations of `vp check` if such flags exist (currently UNVERIFIED), or (b) proposing an amendment to `verification-tier-policy` to merge the three tiers (a substantial separate change). Both paths pre-authorized.
+
+**D7: `vp cache` is unverified; the cleaning surface is NOT bound in this capability.**
+The user's prompt named `vp cache` as the proposed cleaning surface. As of today, viteplus.dev's documented subcommand list does NOT include `vp cache`. Per session integrity discipline, this is treated as a fictional-API risk and quarantined. The cleaning binding is owned by the `resolve-clean-surface` follow-on, which MUST first verify whether `vp cache` exists / what it covers, then bind the cleaning surface. Shell `rm -rf` will retain coverage of non-Vite artifacts (Rust `target/` and `*.node` binaries) regardless of the resolution.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**[Vendor lock-in to VoidZero]** → Mitigated by tool-neutral capability spec; the architecture contract names no specific subcommands. An alternative orchestrator (Nx, Turborepo, Moon) satisfying the contract is a valid replacement. The proposal documents the lock-in as an explicit tradeoff.
+
+**[Vite+ alpha instability if executed pre-GA]** → Mitigated by D3's per-slice risk-acceptance requirement. Each follow-on executed pre-GA MUST contain a maintainer-signed exposure assessment in its `proposal.md`.
+
+**[Spec delta drift with sibling in-flight changes]** → Per `feedback_openspec_modified_semantics`, MODIFIED delta blocks replace full requirement content on archive in archive-order; sibling overwrites are silent. The animus repo has 4 other in-flight changes (`add-rust-dep-hygiene`, `fix-mdx-component-usage-scanning`, `fix-selector-rule-extraction`, `rc-channel-graduation`, `refine-code-hygiene-dx`). The `code-hygiene` spec in particular is in active flux. Mitigation: `tasks.md` MUST include a pre-archive re-sync step that diffs each MODIFIED requirement against the current spec state and against any sibling change's delta on the same requirement, surfacing conflicts before archive.
+
+**[`vp check` ↔ three-tier conflation]** → Surfaced in D6 with both resolution paths pre-authorized in the lint follow-on.
+
+**[`_preconditions.sh` may not be expressible as orchestrator-native hooks]** → Mitigated by D5: the contract is invariant; the file stays if no native equivalent emerges; orchestrator can shell out to existing scripts.
+
+**[`vp cache` confabulation risk]** → Surfaced in D7. Capability spec does NOT bind cleaning; the follow-on verifies before commitment. Documents the verification gap explicitly.
+
+**[Bun version pin (`.tool-versions`) interaction with `vp env`]** → `vp env` "Manages your runtime and package manager selection." Open question whether this conflicts with `.tool-versions` or layers cleanly. Deferred to orchestrator follow-on. Mitigation: the capability spec preserves `.tool-versions` as the authoritative bun-version pin (existing requirement in `verification-tier-policy`), so the follow-on can detect conflict without losing that anchor.
+
+**[Capability spec under-specifies, leaving follow-ons too much latitude]** → Counter-risk to D1. Mitigated by enumerating invariants concretely (loud-fail shape, Change-Type Map presence, dist-staleness check pattern, etc.) in the new capability's spec text. The architecture is tool-neutral but contract-rich.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+This change does NOT execute a migration. The migration plan IS the enumerated follow-on sequence:
+
+1. **`migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run`** — first cutover. Establishes `vp run` as task-graph driver. Tier scripts continue to call existing tools internally; only the outer dispatch changes. Lowest blast radius.
+2. **`migrate-build-to-vp-pack`** — second. Replaces `tsdown` with `vp pack` (Rolldown). Both are VoidZero-owned, so semantic shift is small. Refreshes the stale `rolldown-build` spec.
+3. **`migrate-lint-to-vp-check`** — third. Biome → `vp check`. Includes per-rule biome→oxlint mapping audit. Resolves D6.
+4. **`migrate-test-to-vp-test`** — fourth. `bun test` → `vp test` (Vitest). Touches test discovery and `verify:integration`'s dist-resolution behavior.
+5. **`resolve-clean-surface`** — fifth. Verifies `vp cache` and binds the cleaning surface. Resolves D7.
+
+Each follow-on:
+
+- Is a separate openspec change with its own proposal / design / specs deltas / tasks.
+- MUST run `verify:full` plus spot-check showcase, next, and vite consumer builds before merge.
+- Documents its own rollback path in its design.md (typically: revert the spec deltas and the script edits in one PR).
+
+Rollback for THIS capability change: revert this change's archived state and remove the new `orchestration-architecture` capability. Since no code changed, the rollback is purely a spec rollback.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- Does Vite+ expose flag-based subsets of `vp check` allowing separate lint / format / typecheck invocation? (Resolves D6.)
+- Does `vp cache` exist as a subcommand or as part of `vp env` / Vite Task? What is its actual scope? (Resolves D7.)
+- Does `vp env` conflict with or layer cleanly over `.tool-versions`?
+- How does `vp run`'s task DAG derive — from `package.json` scripts, from `package.json` `dependencies`, or from a Vite Task-specific config? (Affects orchestrator follow-on's required config artifacts.)
+- Does Vitest under `vp test` require renaming any `__tests__` directories or adding `vitest.config.ts` files to match `bun test`'s current discovery patterns?
+- Will Vite+ ship a commercial Enterprise tier post-GA? (Affects vendor-lock-in risk severity assessment in any follow-on executed post-GA.)

+## Why
+
+The animus monorepo's task orchestration, linting, building, testing, and cleaning are spread across five independent tools (bun + biome + tsdown + bun test + napi-cli + bash) with no unifying execution model — no content-addressed task caching, no orchestrator-mediated topological ordering beyond `bun --filter`, and no shared CLI surface. VoidZero's Vite+ has matured to alpha with bun support and unifies these concerns under one binary; the architecture is now coherent enough to commit to as the **target** orchestrator, while deferring the actual cutover until Vite+ reaches GA (or per-slice risk-acceptance).
+
+## What Changes
+
+This change installs the **target orchestration architecture** as a capability plus the **migration trigger criteria**. It does NOT execute the migration. Subcommand-level cutovers land as follow-on policy changes (one per cutover slice). Per the team's capability-vs-policy decomposition pattern (`add-rust-dep-hygiene` / `add-ts-static-analysis`, session 87), this proposal is intentionally STRICT-VALID-CAPABILITY-ONLY.
+
+- Establish a tool-neutral **orchestration capability** owning: task DAG with content-addressed caching, library packing, application bundling, unified lint/format/typecheck, unified test runner.
+- Name **Vite+** as the chosen instance with documented rationale (in-ecosystem: Vite, Vitest, Rolldown, tsdown; bun support shipped; MIT licensed; alpha status a documented blocker for execution).
+- Define **migration trigger criteria**: Vite+ reaches GA OR per-slice risk-acceptance documented in the corresponding follow-on policy change. Bun support is already landed (one criterion met).
+- Define **invariants that survive any orchestrator swap**: loud-fail atomic-tier preconditions, `_preconditions.sh` (or successor) as single authoritative implementation, Change-Type Map in root `CLAUDE.md`, dependency-derived ordering, dist-staleness checks (existence AND mtime-vs-src), atomic-tier isolation.
+- Declare **explicit scope exclusions**: Rust NAPI build (`cargo` + `@napi-rs/cli`) and Rust unit tests (`cargo test`) remain outside the orchestrator's purview regardless of which orchestrator is bound.
+- Enumerate the **follow-on policy changes** required to execute the migration, one per cutover slice.
+
+This change is **NOT breaking** — no script, dependency, or tier changes land in this proposal. Implementation lands per follow-on.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+- `orchestration-architecture`: Defines the target single-orchestrator model (task DAG + content-addressed caching + lint/format/typecheck + test + library pack + app build), the migration trigger criteria, the invariants any orchestrator implementation MUST preserve, and the explicit scope exclusions for Rust pipelines.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `build-orchestration`: Spec-level acknowledgement that the canonical orchestrator surface is the abstract one defined by `orchestration-architecture`; current binding to `bun run` documented as one valid implementation.
+- `verification-tier-policy`: Atomic-tier contract (loud-fail, isolation, shared `_preconditions.sh`, Change-Type Map) re-anchored as orchestrator-invariant; tier names retained; underlying invocations spec-level decoupled from `bun run`.
+- `workspace-build-ordering`: Dependency-derived ordering re-anchored as orchestrator-invariant; current binding to `bun run --filter` documented as one valid implementation.
+- `bun-workspace`: Scope narrowed to "bun is the package manager and workspace resolver"; orchestration semantics that overlap with `orchestration-architecture` are removed from this spec's purview.
+- `bun-test`: Scope narrowed to "`bun test` is the current test-runner binding"; spec-level test-runner contract is owned by `orchestration-architecture`.
+- `code-hygiene`: Cascade structure (Layer A → B → C → D) re-anchored as tooling-neutral; current biome+knip binding documented; future vp check / oxlint binding pre-authorized.
+- `rolldown-build`: Refresh stale references (legacy `core` / `theming` / `ui` packages) to the current package set; reframe as the library-bundler binding for the orchestration-architecture's "library packing" surface.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **`openspec/specs/`**: 1 new spec directory (`orchestration-architecture/`) + 7 modified spec deltas. No spec deletions in this change.
+- **No code changes**: `package.json`, `scripts/verify/*.sh`, `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh`, package build configs unchanged. Implementation is deferred to follow-on policy changes.
+- **No CI changes**: `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` unchanged. CI continues to invoke `bun run` commands until per-slice cutovers land.
+- **No `CLAUDE.md` changes**: the Verification Tier Table and Change-Type Map remain authoritative for current commands. Per-slice follow-ons update them when bindings change.
+- **Follow-on policy changes** (enumerated for downstream proposal scaffolding):
+  - `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` — replaces `bun run --filter` semantics with `vp run` + Vite Task
+  - `migrate-lint-to-vp-check` — replaces biome with `vp check`; resolves the atomic-tier conflation between separate `verify:lint`/`verify:compile`/`verify:types` tiers and the unified `vp check` command
+  - `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` — replaces tsdown configs with rolldown configs invoked via `vp pack`; refreshes the `rolldown-build` spec
+  - `migrate-test-to-vp-test` — replaces `bun test` with `vp test` (Vitest); preserves dist-resolution semantics for the `verify:integration` tier
+  - `resolve-clean-surface` — verifies whether `vp cache` exists, scopes its coverage, and binds the cleaning surface accordingly (with shell `rm -rf` retained for non-Vite artifacts: Rust `target/` and `.node` binaries)
+- **External dependency**: each follow-on is blocked on Vite+ reaching GA OR per-slice maintainer-signed risk-acceptance documented in that follow-on's `proposal.md`.
+- **Tradeoff**: adopting Vite+ couples the repo to VoidZero's roadmap and (eventually) any commercial Vite+ tier. Mitigated by tool-neutral orchestrator-invariant abstractions in `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` — any orchestrator satisfying the architecture spec is a valid replacement.

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The build DAG, clean command, verification pipeline, and granular test commands defined in this spec are realized through the orchestrator binding designated by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding uses `bun run` (specifically `bun run build:all`, `bun run build:extract`, `bun run build:ts`, `bun run clean`, `bun run verify`). A future rebind to a different orchestrator (e.g., Vite+ via the `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` follow-on policy change) SHALL preserve every behavioral requirement in this spec — DAG ordering, clean coverage, verification composition — while updating only the invocation surface.
+
+The Rust NAPI build (`packages/extract`) SHALL remain owned by `cargo` + `@napi-rs/cli` per the Rust-pipeline exclusion in `orchestration-architecture`. Any orchestrator binding that orchestrates the full DAG MUST shell out to the cargo-based NAPI build for the Rust step.
+
+#### Scenario: Build DAG semantics survive orchestrator rebind
+
+- **WHEN** a cutover follow-on rebinds the orchestrator
+- **THEN** the full-build task continues to build packages in the correct topological position
+- **AND** the Rust NAPI build continues to invoke `cargo` / `napi build`
+- **AND** the clean task continues to remove `dist/`, `target/`, and `.node` artifacts as documented
+- **AND** the verification pipeline continues to compose its constituent tiers in the correct order

+
+The test-runner contract is owned by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding for the contract is `bun test`. A future rebind to a different test runner (e.g., Vitest via `vp test` per the `migrate-test-to-vp-test` follow-on policy change) SHALL preserve every requirement in this spec that is not explicitly modified by the rebind change.
+
+The `bun test` invocation, file-discovery patterns, and DOM-environment defaults documented below describe the CURRENT binding. The rebind follow-on MAY update these to the rebound runner's equivalents (e.g., Vitest config files, alternative DOM environment).

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The script-execution and workspace-resolution surfaces defined in this spec are realized through the orchestrator binding designated by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding uses `bun` exclusively (`bun install`, `bun run`, `bun run --filter`, `bun test`). A future rebind to a different orchestrator (e.g., Vite+ via the `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` follow-on policy change) SHALL preserve every requirement in this spec that is not explicitly modified by the rebind change.
+
+The package-manager identity (Bun) and workspace-resolution mechanism (Bun's workspaces feature) SHALL remain owned by this spec regardless of orchestrator rebind. The orchestration semantics — specifically, the choice of which CLI dispatches tasks across the workspace — are owned by `orchestration-architecture` and may move out of `bun run`'s purview when a rebind lands.
+
+#### Scenario: Bun remains the package manager after orchestrator rebind
+
+- **WHEN** a cutover follow-on rebinds the orchestrator (e.g., to `vp run`)
+- **THEN** `bun install` continues to resolve workspace dependencies
+- **AND** `bun.lockb` continues to be the lockfile of record
+- **AND** the workspace topology defined in this spec is preserved
+
+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Bun workspace script execution
+
+The monorepo SHALL use Bun's native workspace features for resolving the workspace graph. Cross-workspace task dispatch (running a script across multiple packages in dependency order) is owned by the orchestrator designated by the `orchestration-architecture` capability — currently `bun run` and `bun run --filter`, with future rebind permitted via the orchestration follow-on policy changes.
+
+The workspace SHALL include active packages from `packages/` and consumer fixture apps from `e2e/`. It SHALL exclude packages located under `legacy/` at the repository root. Cross-workspace script dispatch SHALL build only packages present in the root `package.json` `workspaces` array — legacy packages SHALL NOT be included in any cross-workspace script dispatch under any orchestrator binding.
+
+#### Scenario: Run build across active packages
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs the orchestrator's full-build task at the root (currently `bun run build`)
+- **THEN** all active workspace packages (from `packages/` and `e2e/`) are built in dependency order
+- **AND** no package under `legacy/` is built
+
+#### Scenario: Run script in specific active package
+
+- **WHEN** a developer invokes the orchestrator's per-package dispatch (currently `bun run --filter @animus-ui/system build`)
+- **THEN** only the `packages/system` build script executes
+
+#### Scenario: Filter resolves e2e workspace member
+
+- **WHEN** a developer invokes per-package dispatch for an e2e workspace (currently `bun run --filter @animus-ui/next-app build`)
+- **THEN** the dispatch resolves the `@animus-ui/next-app` workspace to its location under `e2e/next-app/`
+- **AND** only that build script executes
+
+#### Scenario: Filter does not resolve legacy packages
+
+- **WHEN** a developer invokes per-package dispatch targeting a legacy package (e.g., `@animus-ui/core` which resides under `legacy/`)
+- **THEN** the dispatch reports no matching workspace
+- **AND** no legacy build runs
+
+### Requirement: No competing orchestration tools
+
+The repository SHALL NOT depend on multiple competing orchestration tools simultaneously. The single orchestrator designated by `orchestration-architecture` is the sole owner of cross-workspace task dispatch. NX, Lerna, Turborepo, Moon, or equivalent tools SHALL NOT be installed alongside the designated orchestrator. Their configuration files (nx.json, lerna.json, turbo.json, moon.yml) SHALL NOT exist unless one of them IS the designated orchestrator per a future rebind change.
+
+#### Scenario: No competing orchestrator configs
+
+- **WHEN** listing root configuration files
+- **THEN** at most one orchestrator's configuration file exists (e.g., currently no orchestrator config; post-`migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` cutover, only Vite+'s configuration would exist)
+- **AND** `package.json` `devDependencies` does not contain entries for orchestrators not designated by `orchestration-architecture`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The code-hygiene cascade structure (Layer A biome safe → Layer B biome unsafe-scoped → Layer C home-roll deleter → Layer D knip), the safety envelope, the scan/fix-mode contract, and the recovery-snapshot semantics defined in this spec SHALL be realized through the orchestrator binding designated by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding uses `bun run hygiene` (or equivalently `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`) and shells out to `biome` and `knip` for layers A/B and D respectively.
+
+A future rebind to a different linter/formatter (e.g., `vp check` / Oxc via the `migrate-lint-to-vp-check` follow-on policy change) SHALL preserve the cascade structure: Layer A's safe-fix semantics, Layer B's scoped DELETE-only semantics, Layer C's home-roll deleter (which closes biome's intra-file dead-decl gap), Layer D's knip-driven cross-file pruning. The rebind MAY substitute the underlying tool for layers A and B (e.g., Oxc-equivalents) provided the layer's semantic contract is preserved.
+
+The end-of-work-only contract (`bun run hygiene` SHALL NOT appear in any CI workflow) is invariant under orchestrator rebind. The hygiene surface remains a human-or-agent-invoked tool, never a CI gate, regardless of which orchestrator dispatches it.
+
+#### Scenario: Cascade structure survives linter rebind
+
+- **WHEN** a cutover follow-on rebinds the linter (e.g., biome → `vp check`)
+- **THEN** Layer A continues to apply only safe-fix transformations
+- **AND** Layer B continues to be scoped DELETE-only (no `noConsole`, no rename-as-fix)
+- **AND** Layer C continues to delete intra-file dead declarations the linter does not handle
+- **AND** Layer D continues to invoke `knip --fix` for cross-file pruning
+
+#### Scenario: End-of-work-only contract survives orchestrator rebind
+
+- **WHEN** any cutover follow-on rebinds the orchestrator or linter
+- **THEN** the hygiene entrypoint continues to be excluded from `.github/workflows/*.yaml` files
+- **AND** any addition of a hygiene step to CI is rejected in code review

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Single Orchestrator Surface
+
+The animus monorepo SHALL designate exactly one root orchestrator that owns the following concerns: workspace task DAG, content-addressed task caching, library packing, application bundling, unified lint/format/typecheck, unified test runner. The orchestrator's CLI surface SHALL be the single canonical entry point for task invocation at the repository root, accessible identically to humans, agents, and CI.
+
+The orchestrator's identity and CLI surface SHALL be specified in a separate per-binding policy change (e.g., `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run`). This requirement establishes the singularity invariant — multiple orchestrators competing for ownership of the same concern SHALL NOT exist.
+
+#### Scenario: Single orchestrator owns task dispatch
+
+- **WHEN** a developer or CI agent invokes any verification, build, test, lint, or pack task at the repository root
+- **THEN** the invocation goes through the single designated orchestrator binary (or its equivalent shell entry point during transition)
+- **AND** no parallel orchestrator binary owns the same concern
+
+### Requirement: Designated Orchestrator
+
+The repository SHALL designate **Vite+** (`vp` CLI, https://viteplus.dev) as the chosen orchestrator instance. Once any cutover follow-on lands, the designation SHALL be recorded in root `CLAUDE.md` documenting: the version constraint (initially Vite+ alpha or later), the rationale (in-ecosystem with Vite/Vitest/Rolldown/tsdown; bun support shipped; MIT licensed), and the swap-out criteria.
+
+Any orchestrator satisfying every requirement in this capability spec MAY replace Vite+ via a separate rebind change. The designation is one valid choice, not an immutable identity.
+
+#### Scenario: Orchestrator designation is documented
+
+- **WHEN** a developer or agent reads root `CLAUDE.md` after the first cutover follow-on lands
+- **THEN** the orchestrator's name, version-floor, rationale, and swap-out criteria are documented in a single section
+
+### Requirement: Migration Trigger Criteria
+
+Cutover from the current bun-based binding to Vite+ SHALL be gated on either of two criteria:
+
+- **Criterion A**: Vite+ reaching general availability (GA) per the official VoidZero release channel.
+- **Criterion B**: Per-slice maintainer-signed risk-acceptance documented in the corresponding follow-on `proposal.md`. The risk-acceptance MUST surface a written exposure assessment covering the alpha-status risk for that specific cutover slice.
+
+A cutover follow-on that does not satisfy at least one criterion SHALL NOT be merged.
+
+#### Scenario: Pre-GA cutover requires risk-acceptance
+
+- **WHEN** a follow-on cutover change is proposed before Vite+ reaches GA
+- **THEN** its `proposal.md` SHALL include a `## Risk Acceptance` section signed by the repo maintainer
+- **AND** the section SHALL document the specific alpha-status exposure for the cutover slice
+
+#### Scenario: Post-GA cutover does not require risk-acceptance
+
+- **WHEN** a follow-on cutover change is proposed after Vite+ reaches GA
+- **THEN** the risk-acceptance section is OPTIONAL
+- **AND** the GA status SHALL be referenced in the proposal
+
+### Requirement: Loud-Fail Atomic-Tier Preconditions Survive Orchestrator Swap
+
+Any orchestrator binding SHALL preserve the atomic-tier loud-fail precondition contract defined in the `verification-tier-policy` spec. The contract requires: (a) precondition checks fire BEFORE the tier's primary work; (b) failure emits a stderr line of the shape `ERROR: <what's missing or stale>. Run: <exact command>`; (c) failure exits with non-zero status; (d) preconditions MUST NOT trigger upstream rebuilds.
+
+The shared precondition helper at `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` (or its successor under any orchestrator binding) SHALL remain the single authoritative implementation of these checks. If an orchestrator-native equivalent emerges (e.g., a Vite Task hook), it MAY replace the shell helper provided every check is preserved with identical semantics. Until a native equivalent demonstrably preserves all checks, the orchestrator SHALL invoke the existing shell scripts as task bodies.
+
+#### Scenario: Orchestrator binding preserves loud-fail shape
+
+- **WHEN** any orchestrator binding implements an atomic tier (e.g., `verify:canary`)
+- **AND** the upstream NAPI binary is missing
+- **THEN** the binding emits a stderr line matching `ERROR: NAPI binary missing. Run: <command-to-build-NAPI>`
+- **AND** exits with a non-zero status
+- **AND** does NOT trigger a NAPI rebuild
+
+#### Scenario: Shell helper survives until orchestrator-native equivalent ships
+
+- **WHEN** an orchestrator binding is proposed
+- **AND** the orchestrator does not provide a native hook that preserves every `_preconditions.sh` check
+- **THEN** the binding SHALL invoke `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh` as the task body for tiers that require preconditions
+- **AND** the shell helper remains in the repository unchanged
+
+### Requirement: Change-Type Map Survives Orchestrator Swap
+
+The Change-Type Map in root `CLAUDE.md` (mandated by `verification-tier-policy`) SHALL be preserved through any orchestrator binding swap. Each cutover follow-on that changes a tier invocation SHALL update the Change-Type Map's `Run` column in the SAME change that lands the cutover, keeping the map as the authoritative agent-facing instructability surface.
+
+#### Scenario: Cutover updates Change-Type Map atomically
+
+- **WHEN** a cutover follow-on lands (e.g., `migrate-lint-to-vp-check`)
+- **AND** the follow-on changes the invocation surface for `verify:lint`
+- **THEN** the same follow-on edits the Change-Type Map in root `CLAUDE.md`
+- **AND** the map's `Run` column reflects the new invocation
+
+### Requirement: Dependency-Derived Build Ordering Survives Orchestrator Swap
+
+The dependency-derived build ordering invariant defined in `workspace-build-ordering` SHALL be preserved through any orchestrator binding swap. Adding a new package to the workspace with appropriate `package.json` dependencies SHALL NOT require editing root orchestrator scripts or task definitions to position it correctly in the build graph.
+
+#### Scenario: New package builds in correct position without orchestrator config edit
+
+- **WHEN** a new package is added with appropriate `dependencies` in its `package.json`
+- **AND** the orchestrator's full-build task is invoked
+- **THEN** the package builds in its correct topological position
+- **AND** no root orchestrator script or task config required edits
+
+### Requirement: Dist-Staleness Check Pattern Survives Orchestrator Swap
+
+The dist-staleness check pattern (existence AND mtime-vs-src) defined in `verification-tier-policy` SHALL be preserved through any orchestrator binding swap. Tiers that consume a package's `dist/` at runtime SHALL check both that the dist exists AND that its key artifact's mtime is newer than the package's `src/**`. A stale dist SHALL surface as a precondition failure with the same loud-fail message shape.
+
+#### Scenario: Stale dist surfaces as precondition failure under any binding
+
+- **WHEN** a tier requires a fresh `packages/<pkg>/dist/`
+- **AND** the dist exists but the key artifact's mtime is older than `packages/<pkg>/src/**`
+- **THEN** the tier exits non-zero
+- **AND** stderr identifies the dist as stale and includes the rebuild command for that package
+
+### Requirement: Atomic-Tier Isolation Survives Orchestrator Swap
+
+The atomic-tier isolation contract defined in `verification-tier-policy` SHALL be preserved through any orchestrator binding swap. An atomic tier MUST NOT silently rebuild upstream artifacts. If upstream artifacts are missing or stale, the tier SHALL fail with the loud-fail message identifying the upstream rebuild command rather than invoking it.
+
+#### Scenario: Tier does not silently rebuild upstream
+
+- **WHEN** an atomic tier is invoked
+- **AND** an upstream artifact is missing or stale
+- **THEN** the tier exits non-zero with the loud-fail message
+- **AND** the tier does NOT invoke the upstream build
+
+### Requirement: Rust Pipeline Excluded from Orchestrator Scope
+
+The Rust NAPI build for `packages/extract` SHALL remain owned by `cargo` + `@napi-rs/cli` regardless of which orchestrator is bound. Rust unit tests SHALL remain owned by `cargo test`. The orchestrator's task graph MAY include Rust-pipeline tiers as orchestrated invocations of the cargo-based commands, but the orchestrator SHALL NOT replace the underlying Rust toolchain.
+
+This exclusion is a permanent boundary, not a deferral. Specs covering the Rust pipeline (`rust-extraction-pipeline`, `ci-napi-binary-verification`, etc.) SHALL NOT be modified by any orchestrator binding change.
+
+#### Scenario: Rust NAPI build invocation goes through cargo
+
+- **WHEN** the orchestrator's full-build task includes the Rust NAPI build
+- **THEN** the build invokes `napi build --platform --release` (or its `cargo`-equivalent surface)
+- **AND** the orchestrator does NOT attempt to compile Rust source itself
+
+#### Scenario: Rust unit tests go through cargo
+
+- **WHEN** the orchestrator's test task includes Rust unit tests
+- **THEN** the tests invoke `cargo test --lib` (or equivalent)
+- **AND** the orchestrator does NOT attempt to discover or run Rust tests through its TS test runner
+
+### Requirement: Bun Version Pin Survives Orchestrator Swap
+
+The `.tool-versions` file SHALL remain the authoritative bun version pin per `verification-tier-policy`'s "Bun Version Pin" requirement. Any orchestrator binding that introduces its own runtime/package-manager selection mechanism SHALL respect or layer cleanly over `.tool-versions`. If the orchestrator's runtime-selection mechanism conflicts with `.tool-versions`, the conflict SHALL be resolved in favor of `.tool-versions` and the resolution documented in the binding follow-on.
+
+#### Scenario: Orchestrator runtime selection respects .tool-versions
+
+- **WHEN** an orchestrator binding's runtime/PM selection mechanism is invoked at the repository root
+- **THEN** the active bun version matches the content of `.tool-versions`
+- **AND** no manual override is required
+
+### Requirement: Follow-On Policy Decomposition
+
+Cutover from the current bun-based binding to Vite+ SHALL be decomposed into per-slice follow-on policy changes. A single mega-change covering all subcommand cutovers SHALL NOT be merged. The decomposition exists to enable per-slice review, per-slice risk-acceptance, and per-slice rollback.
+
+The follow-on slices SHALL include at minimum:
+
+- A change rebinding the task-graph orchestrator
+- A change rebinding the linter / formatter / typechecker surface
+- A change rebinding the library bundler
+- A change rebinding the test runner
+- A change rebinding (or explicitly preserving shell) the cleaning surface
+
+Each follow-on SHALL satisfy the migration trigger criteria and the invariants defined in this spec before merge.
+
+#### Scenario: Per-slice follow-on lands independently
+
+- **WHEN** a single cutover slice (e.g., the test-runner rebind) is ready to merge
+- **AND** other slices are not yet ready
+- **THEN** the ready slice MAY merge independently
+- **AND** the unmerged slices remain blocked on their own readiness criteria

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The library bundler contract — Rolldown as the bundling engine, ES-module output, TypeScript and JSX compilation without Babel, externalization of `node_modules`, declaration emission — defined in this spec SHALL be realized through the orchestrator binding designated by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding invokes `tsdown` (which uses Rolldown internally) per package via `bun run --filter './packages/*' build:ts`.
+
+A future rebind to direct `vp pack` invocation (per the `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` follow-on policy change) SHALL preserve the bundler-engine identity (Rolldown), the output format (ES module), the externalization contract, and the declaration-emission requirement. The rebind MAY replace `tsdown.config.ts` files with `rolldown.config.ts` (or the orchestrator's equivalent config surface) provided the output is functionally equivalent.
+
+This spec's existing requirement text references legacy package paths (`packages/core`, `packages/theming`, `packages/ui`) that no longer exist in the active build graph (they live under `legacy/` per the `legacy-directory-topology` capability). The reference refresh — updating the requirement text to enumerate the current package set (`packages/extract`, `packages/system`, `packages/properties`, `packages/vite-plugin`, `packages/next-plugin`, `packages/_assertions`) — SHALL be performed in the `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` follow-on policy change as part of the rebind. This capability change does NOT modify the existing requirements' text.
+
+#### Scenario: Rolldown engine identity survives bundler rebind
+
+- **WHEN** a cutover follow-on rebinds the library-build invocation (e.g., `tsdown` → `vp pack`)
+- **THEN** the underlying bundling engine continues to be Rolldown
+- **AND** ES-module output continues to be the only emitted format
+- **AND** all `node_modules` continue to be externalized from the bundle
+- **AND** TypeScript declaration files continue to be emitted
+
+#### Scenario: Stale package references refreshed by rebind follow-on
+
+- **WHEN** the `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` follow-on policy change is proposed
+- **THEN** it modifies the existing "Core package build" scenario (and similar legacy-package scenarios) to reference current packages
+- **AND** this capability change does NOT pre-emptively modify those scenarios

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The atomic-tier contract, composite orchestrators, shared precondition helper, Change-Type Map, and CI-simulation semantics defined in this spec are realized through the orchestrator binding designated by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding uses `bun run` to invoke `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh` per atomic tier. A future rebind to a different orchestrator (e.g., Vite+ via the `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` follow-on policy change) SHALL preserve every behavioral requirement in this spec — atomic-tier isolation, loud-fail precondition shape, the `_preconditions.sh` semantics, the Change-Type Map's authoritativeness, the dist-staleness check pattern — while updating only the invocation surface.
+
+The shell helper at `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` SHALL remain in place under any orchestrator binding until and unless an orchestrator-native hook demonstrably preserves every check defined therein with identical semantics. If no native equivalent exists, the orchestrator's task body for any precondition-bearing tier SHALL invoke the existing shell script (e.g., `bash scripts/verify/canary.sh`).

+
+The two-tier strategy (a fast TS-only tier and a full Rust+TS tier) SHALL be preserved under any orchestrator binding. The Rust NAPI step in the full tier SHALL continue to invoke `cargo` / `napi build` per the Rust-pipeline exclusion in `orchestration-architecture`.

+  - **Bun Version Pin Survives Swap** — `.tool-versions` authoritative; any orchestrator runtime-selection mechanism respects or layers cleanly; conflict resolved in favor of `.tool-versions`
+  - **Follow-On Policy Decomposition** — minimum 5 cutover slices (orchestrator rebind, lint/format/typecheck rebind, library bundler rebind, test runner rebind, cleaning surface rebind); mega-change prohibited
+
+## 2. Add binding requirements to consumer specs (ADDED-only)
+
+- [x] 2.1 `specs/build-orchestration/spec.md` — ADD `Binding to orchestration-architecture`: build DAG / clean / verification-pipeline / granular-test surfaces realized through architecture-designated orchestrator; Rust NAPI step preserves `cargo` + `@napi-rs/cli` ownership; current binding (`bun run build:all` / `build:extract` / `build:ts` / `clean` / `verify`) documented as one valid implementation
+- [x] 2.2 `specs/verification-tier-policy/spec.md` — ADD `Binding to orchestration-architecture`: atomic-tier loud-fail contract + `_preconditions.sh` semantics + Change-Type Map authoritativeness + dist-staleness check pattern survive rebind; orchestrator's task body MAY invoke `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh` until orchestrator-native hook demonstrably preserves every check
+- [x] 2.3 `specs/workspace-build-ordering/spec.md` — ADD `Binding to orchestration-architecture`: dependency-derived ordering invariant + two-tier strategy (fast TS-only `build:ts` / full Rust+TS `build:all`) survive rebind; Rust NAPI step in full tier continues to invoke `cargo` / `napi build`
+- [x] 2.4 `specs/code-hygiene/spec.md` — ADD `Binding to orchestration-architecture`: cascade structure (Layer A biome-safe → B biome-unsafe-scoped → C home-roll deleter → D knip) survives linter rebind; layer semantic contracts preserved (A's safe-fix, B's DELETE-only scope, C's intra-file dead-decl coverage, D's cross-file knip pruning); end-of-work-only contract (`bun run hygiene` SHALL NOT appear in `.github/workflows/*.yaml`) invariant under any rebind
+- [x] 2.5 `specs/rolldown-build/spec.md` — ADD `Binding to orchestration-architecture`: Rolldown engine identity + ES-module output + `node_modules` externalization + TypeScript declaration emission survive bundler rebind; legacy package-path refresh (current text references `packages/core` / `theming` / `ui` which now live under `legacy/`) deferred to `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` follow-on
+
+## 3. Re-anchor Bun-bound specs (ADDED + MODIFIED)
+
+- [x] 3.1 `specs/bun-workspace/spec.md`:
+  - ADD `Binding to orchestration-architecture` — Bun retains package-manager identity and workspace-resolution mechanism (`bun install`, `bun.lockb`, workspace topology); orchestration semantics delegated to architecture-designated orchestrator
+  - MODIFY `Bun workspace script execution` — cross-workspace task dispatch owned by the orchestrator designated by `orchestration-architecture` (currently `bun run` / `bun run --filter`); workspace SHALL include `packages/` + `e2e/` and SHALL exclude `legacy/` under any binding
+  - MODIFY `No competing orchestration tools` — singularity invariant references the architecture-designated orchestrator; NX/Lerna/Turborepo/Moon (and their config files: `nx.json` / `lerna.json` / `turbo.json` / `moon.yml`) prohibited unless one IS the designated orchestrator per a future rebind change
+- [x] 3.2 `specs/bun-test/spec.md`:
+  - ADD `Binding to orchestration-architecture` — test-runner contract owned by `orchestration-architecture`; current binding is `bun test`; rebind to a different runner (e.g., Vitest via `vp test`) preserves semantic requirements (snapshot inlining, parameterized fixtures, DOM environment availability) while updating only the invocation surface
+  - MODIFY `Bun native test runner` — tests run via the architecture-designated test-runner binding (currently `bun test`); no Jest / `babel-jest` / `jest-environment-jsdom` dependencies SHALL be required under any binding

+## Context
+
+Phase β (`migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint`, archived 2026-05-07) migrated the code-hygiene cascade's tooling-side from biome to oxlint. The migration scope was tooling-side only — the cascade orchestrator, its rule-discrimination logic, and the dependency removals.
+
+Three downstream surfaces were deliberately deferred:
+
+1. **User-code-side `biome-ignore` directives** in 6 source files (7 total directive-comments). Phase β didn't migrate these because the syntax migration was orthogonal to cascade-side work.
+2. **vite.config.ts lint config** entries for the rules that those directives target. Phase β didn't add explicit rule overrides because the cascade migration didn't require them.
+3. **Stale `.knip.json` reference** to `_emit-biome-receipts.ts`, a file deleted earlier in the migration arc. Phase β didn't catch this because the file deletion happened in a sibling commit and the knip-ignore entry wasn't in the diff path.
+
+This design also surfaces a fourth residue discovered during this proposal's scoping pass:
+
+4. **Stale spec text** in canonical `code-hygiene/spec.md`:
+   - Line 392 (inside requirement "Hygiene Entrypoint Dispatched via vp run") describes the cascade as `Layer A biome safe → B biome unsafe-scoped → C → D → D1`. This contradicts the post-Phase-β reality (`Layer A oxlint-fix-suggestions + import removal → C → D → D1`, no Layer B) and contradicts line 366 in the SAME spec which already uses oxlint terminology.
+   - Line 295 (inside requirement "Reconciler partial-clause edits preserve original-source spans") cites `biome-ignore` directives as the per-element trivia example. Historically correct, but not the active syntax post-Phase-β.
+
+The drift between line 366 (oxlint) and line 392 (biome) means a reader skimming the canonical spec gets contradictory information about the cascade's current structure. That's a real readability/correctness debt.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+
+- Restore behavioral coherence: `biome-ignore` directives in source code SHALL be migrated to `oxlint-disable-next-line` syntax with rule-name remapping, so that the migrated comments suppress concretely-configured rules.
+- Restore lint coverage: `import/order` (or oxlint's equivalent sort-imports rule) SHALL be configured in `vite.config.ts` `lint.rules` so that import sorting actively runs.
+- Restore config-source-of-truth: explicit rule entries for `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps`, `react/no-array-index-key`, `no-console` SHALL be added to `vite.config.ts` `lint.rules` so the migrated disable-comments suppress concretely-configured rules (not implicit-from-category rules).
+- Restore knip-config accuracy: stale `.knip.json` reference to deleted `_emit-biome-receipts.ts` SHALL be removed.
+- Restore spec-text accuracy: stale biome-era cascade-structure text in `code-hygiene/spec.md:392` SHALL be updated to the post-Phase-β reality; trivia-preservation example syntax SHALL include both historical (`biome-ignore`) and active (`oxlint-disable-`) directives.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+
+- **Rule-coverage gap analysis** — enumerating which biome-era rules should be explicitly enabled in oxlint vs which were intentionally dropped is a separate exercise. This proposal scopes ONLY to the rules already named by existing biome-ignore directives.
+- **Test-runner migration** — `migrate-test-to-vp-test` is a sibling vp-arc slice and is out of scope here.
+- **Library bundler rebind** and **cleaning-surface rebind** — also out of scope (sibling vp-arc slices).
+- **Formatting (`fmt:`) config changes** — the existing `fmt:` config in `vite.config.ts:45-70` is correct (Prettier-style); this proposal does NOT touch it.
+- **Migrating hygiene script comments or test fixtures that exercise biome-ignore directive preservation logic** — those are legitimate historical references / test coverage, not residue.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Migrate, don't remove, the disable-comments
+
+**Choice:** Convert each `biome-ignore` directive to `oxlint-disable-next-line` syntax, preserving the rule's intent and the rationale text.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Remove the disable-comments and accept whatever the new oxlint config emits.
+
+**Rationale:** The original disable-comments encode deliberate lint-rule suppressions made by the codebase author. Removing them blindly would either (a) surface real lint violations the author already evaluated and chose to suppress, or (b) require the author to re-evaluate each site — high-cost rediscovery. Migrate-with-rationale-preserved is lower-cost and preserves intent.
+
+### Decision 2: Add explicit rule overrides for the three previously-suppressed rules
+
+**Choice:** Even if those rules would already be enabled-by-category (`correctness: error`, `suspicious: error`), explicitly name them in `vite.config.ts` `lint.rules` at intended severity.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Rely on category-level enablement (current state).
+
+**Rationale:** When a developer reads `// oxlint-disable-next-line no-console` at a use site, they want to be able to grep `vite.config.ts` for `'no-console'` and see what they're suppressing. Implicit-from-category enablement makes the disable-comment lie about the underlying state. Explicit-override makes the suppression auditable.
+
+### Decision 3: Use `oxlint-disable-next-line` rather than file-level or block-level disables
+
+**Choice:** Migrate every `biome-ignore` directive to `oxlint-disable-next-line` (line-scoped), matching the original biome-ignore behavior.
+
+**Alternative considered:** File-level disable for files with multiple disables (e.g., SyntaxBlock.tsx with 2 disables, createTheme.ts with 2 disables).
+
+**Rationale:** Line-scoped preserves the original semantic precision. File-level expands suppression scope inappropriately — future violations on lines other than the originally-protected one would be silently allowed. Maintain semantic-equivalence to the biome-ignore behavior.
+
+### Decision 4: MODIFY the canonical spec text rather than leave it as historical narrative
+
+**Choice:** Update `code-hygiene/spec.md:392` to describe the post-Phase-β cascade structure. Update line 295 trivia-list example to include both historical and active syntaxes.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Leave the spec text as-is since "biome safe → biome unsafe-scoped" is historically accurate.
+
+**Rationale:** The drift between line 366 (oxlint) and line 392 (biome) within the SAME spec creates contradictory canonical text. A reader has to know which line is "current" to extract the truth. Editorial alignment removes the ambiguity. The history is still preserved in line 372's "Earlier revisions of the cascade included Layer B..." paragraph and line 198's "historically Layer B (biome `--unsafe` scoped...)" — those legitimately ARE historical narrative and stay untouched.
+
+### Decision 5: Defer rule-coverage gap analysis
+
+**Choice:** Do not enumerate biome-era rules vs current oxlint coverage in this proposal.
+
+**Alternative considered:** Include as item 4 of original scope ("optional spike").
+
+**Rationale:** Gap analysis is open-ended and dependency on judgment calls (which dropped rules were intentional, which were oversight, which to re-add). A separate proposal is the right home for that work — different time-horizon, different review cohort, different verification gate. This proposal should ship cleanly and quickly.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**Risk 1: Enabling `import/order` surfaces violations** → Mitigation: implementation tasks include a clean-pass verification gate (`bunx vp lint && bunx vp fmt --check` MUST pass post-change). If violations surface in source files OTHER than the configured stub, scope EXPANDS to include a one-shot lint-fix pass for import order; OR the rule is downgraded to warning level for one cycle. Decision logged in tasks.md when encountered.
+
+**Risk 2: Enabling explicit `no-console` / `react/no-array-index-key` / `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps` surfaces violations beyond the 4 currently-disable-commented sites** → Mitigation: clean-pass gate as above. If violations surface, choose between (a) one-shot fix pass within this proposal's scope, (b) downgrade-to-warn for previously-uncaught sites, or (c) add additional disable-comments at those sites with rationale.
+
+**Risk 3: oxlint-disable-next-line syntax incompatibility surprise** → Mitigation: confirm syntax via oxlint docs OR the existing `code-hygiene/spec.md:262` "code-drift detection" pattern (which assumes oxlint-style codes via `eslint(...)` wrap unwrap). Fallback: comment-block wrapping if next-line syntax is finicky.
+
+**Risk 4: `import/order` group configuration mismatch** → Mitigation: model groups configuration on the codebase's existing import-order convention via inspection of representative files. Default to a safe baseline (builtin → external → parent → sibling) and tighten if warranted in a follow-on.
+
+**Trade-off: Two-step migration per directive** (rule-name remap + syntax change) → vs. one-step automated migration. We accept the two-step manual approach because the migration count is small (7 sites) and the rule-name remap requires human judgment for one-to-one mapping accuracy. An automated codemod would be over-engineered for 7 sites.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+1. **Add the three explicit rule overrides + `import/order` to `vite.config.ts`** (one edit). Severity-level decision: match category default (`error`) unless violations surface.
+2. **Run `bunx vp lint` and inspect output** for any violations OTHER than the 7 currently-disable-commented sites. If clean, proceed. If not, decide: fix-in-scope, downgrade-to-warn, or add additional disable-comments per Risk 2 mitigation.
+3. **Migrate the 7 directive-comments** in source files (six file edits). Verify each file lints clean post-migration via `bunx vp lint <file>`.
+4. **Remove `.knip.json:10`** stale entry. Verify `bunx --bun knip` passes.
+5. **Apply the spec deltas** to `code-hygiene/spec.md` via this change's archive cycle.
+6. **Run full verification gate**: `vp run verify:lint` (lint + fmt) clean; `bunx --bun knip` clean.
+7. **Archive** via `openspec archive finalize-biome-to-oxlint-residue`.
+
+**Rollback:** revert the commit. No data migration, no infrastructure change, no external dependency add — pure source/config edits. `git revert` is safe and complete.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+1. **Severity level for `import/order`**: `error` or `warn`? Default to `error` to match category style; downgrade if violation count is high.
+2. **Severity level for explicit `no-console` / `react/no-array-index-key` / `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps` overrides**: `error` (matching the `correctness` and `suspicious` categories in current config) is the default lean. Confirmed during implementation if violations surface.
+3. **`import/order` groups configuration**: should match codebase convention. Inspect representative files (e.g., `packages/system/src/index.ts`, `packages/showcase/src/App.tsx`) before authoring the rule entry.

+## Why
+
+Phase β (`migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint`, archived 2026-05-07) successfully migrated the hygiene cascade's tooling-side from biome to oxlint. However, the migration's scope was restricted to the cascade orchestrator and its rule-discrimination logic — the user-code-side and config-side surface was deliberately deferred.
+
+That deferred surface is now active technical debt:
+
+- **6 source files contain 7 `biome-ignore` directive comments** that oxlint does not parse. The comments are functionally inert: the rules they intend to suppress either aren't running (silent no-op) or are running unsuppressed (silent under-coverage). Either way, the comments lie about what's protecting the code.
+- **`vite.config.ts` lint config (lines 4-44) is sparse**: no `import/order` rule (so import sorting isn't running), and no explicit overrides for the three rules the inert biome-ignore directives target (`react-hooks/exhaustive-deps`, `react/no-array-index-key`, `no-console`).
+- **`.knip.json:10` references `scripts/hygiene/_emit-biome-receipts.ts`** — a file that no longer exists. Stale knip-ignore entry.
+- **Canonical `code-hygiene/spec.md` has stale text**: line 392's "Binding to orchestration-architecture (vp wrap)" requirement still describes the cascade as `Layer A biome safe → B biome unsafe-scoped → C → D → D1`, contradicting the post-Phase-β reality (`Layer A oxlint-fix-suggestions → C → D → D1`, no Layer B). Line 295/309 cite `biome-ignore` as the trivia-preservation directive-syntax example — historically correct but no longer the active syntax.
+
+Closing this loop completes Phase β's behavioral contract and removes confusion-by-stale-reference for future readers.
+
+## What Changes
+
+### Configuration
+
+- **ADD** `import/order` (or oxlint's equivalent sort-imports rule) to `vite.config.ts` `lint.rules` with an explicit groups configuration matching the codebase's existing import conventions.
+- **ADD** explicit `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps`, `react/no-array-index-key`, and `no-console` rule entries to `vite.config.ts` `lint.rules` at intended severity, so that the migrated disable-comments suppress concretely-configured rules rather than implicitly-enabled ones.
+
+### Source-code directive migration (7 sites, 6 files)
+
+- **MIGRATE** `// biome-ignore lint/correctness/useExhaustiveDependencies: ...` → `// oxlint-disable-next-line react-hooks/exhaustive-deps -- ...` at:
+  - `packages/showcase/src/layout/ScrollToTop.tsx:6`
+  - `packages/showcase/src/layout/Shell.tsx:73`
+  - `packages/showcase/src/components/docs/PageToc.tsx:66`
+- **MIGRATE** `// biome-ignore lint/suspicious/noArrayIndexKey: ...` → `// oxlint-disable-next-line react/no-array-index-key -- ...` at:
+  - `packages/showcase/src/components/surfaces/SyntaxBlock.tsx:378`
+  - `packages/showcase/src/components/surfaces/SyntaxBlock.tsx:409`
+- **MIGRATE** `// biome-ignore lint/suspicious/noConsole: ...` → `// oxlint-disable-next-line no-console -- ...` at:
+  - `packages/system/src/theme/createTheme.ts:619`
+  - `packages/system/src/theme/createTheme.ts:638`
+
+### Knip config
+
+- **REMOVE** `"scripts/hygiene/_emit-biome-receipts.ts",` from `.knip.json` (line 10) — references a deleted file.
+
+### Spec text alignment
+
+- **MODIFY** `code-hygiene` capability's "Binding to orchestration-architecture" requirement to describe the post-Phase-β cascade structure (`Layer A oxlint-fix-suggestions → C → D → D1`, no Layer B) rather than the pre-Phase-β biome-era structure.
+- **MODIFY** the trivia-preservation requirement's directive-syntax citation to reflect both the historical (`biome-ignore`) and active (`oxlint-disable-`) syntaxes — preserving the contract's linter-neutrality intent while updating the example.
+
+### Out of scope
+
+- Migrating OpenSpec spec-text references to biome that are explicitly historical-context (e.g., line 198 "historically Layer B (biome --unsafe scoped to specific rules)" — that is correct historical narrative).
+- Hygiene script comments or test fixtures that exercise biome-ignore directive preservation logic (those are legitimate test coverage).
+- Test-runner migration (`migrate-test-to-vp-test`), library bundler rebind, or cleaning-surface rebind — those are separate vp-arc slices.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+None.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `code-hygiene`: stale-reference cleanup in canonical spec text (binding-to-orchestration-architecture's cascade-structure description; trivia-preservation directive-syntax citation). No behavioral contract changes — this is editorial alignment with post-Phase-β reality.
+
+## Impact
+
+### Code
+
+- 1 config file (`vite.config.ts`) — additions to `lint.rules`
+- 1 config file (`.knip.json`) — single line removal
+- 6 source files — 7 directive-comment migrations (single-line edits)
+
+### Specs
+
+- 1 capability (`code-hygiene`) — 2 MODIFIED requirement blocks (editorial; no contract semantics change)
+
+### Verification
+
+- `bunx vp lint && bunx vp fmt --check` SHALL pass post-change with the new rule overrides honored
+- `bunx --bun knip` SHALL pass post-change without flagging the removed `.knip.json` entry
+- `openspec validate finalize-biome-to-oxlint-residue --strict` SHALL pass with the spec deltas
+
+### Risk
+
+- **LOW**: enabling `import/order` may surface previously-uncaught import-order violations in existing source. The implementation tasks include a clean-pass gate before merge; if violations surface, the proposal scope expands to include a one-shot lint-fix pass. Alternative: enable as warning first, escalate to error in a follow-on.
+- **LOW**: enabling explicit `no-console` / `react/no-array-index-key` rules may surface previously-uncaught violations in source files OTHER than the 4 with disable-comments. Same mitigation: clean-pass gate; expand or downgrade-to-warn if needed.
+- **NONE**: spec-text MODIFIED blocks are editorial alignment with reality — no contract semantics change.
+
+### Dependencies
+
+None added or removed. This is purely configuration + comment-syntax + spec-text alignment.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Hygiene Entrypoint Dispatched via vp run
+
+The single code-hygiene entrypoint defined elsewhere in this spec SHALL be dispatched through Vite+ as `vp run hygiene`. The canonical orchestrator-dispatch surface SHALL be `vp run hygiene` (with flags propagating: `vp run hygiene -- --apply`, `vp run hygiene -- --all`, etc.). The `hygiene` task name is defined ONLY in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` (not in `package.json` `scripts`) — `bun run hygiene` returns "script not found" post-migration by design (hard cutover). The direct shell invocation `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` continues to work unchanged for any caller that prefers shell-direct invocation.
+
+The hygiene-cascade structure (Layer A linter safe-fix + import removal → C home-roll deleter → D knip → D1 reconcile-after-knip), the safety envelope, the scan/fix-mode contract, and the recovery-snapshot semantics defined elsewhere in this spec are preserved verbatim. Vite+ wraps the existing `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` invocation — it does NOT reimplement any cascade logic.
+
+The end-of-work-only contract is invariant under any dispatch surface — `vp run hygiene`, `bun run hygiene`, and `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` all SHALL be excluded from `.github/workflows/*.yaml`. Adding any of these invocations to a CI workflow SHALL be rejected in code review regardless of which dispatch surface is used.
+
+#### Scenario: vp run hygiene wraps existing shell script
+
+- **WHEN** a user or agent runs `vp run hygiene` with no flags on a clean worktree
+- **THEN** vp invokes `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` as the task body
+- **AND** the script's scan-mode behavior is identical to direct `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` invocation (cascade runs against changed-scope, restores worktree, prints report, exits zero)
+- **AND** the script's stderr, stdout, and exit code are propagated unchanged
+
+#### Scenario: vp run hygiene -- --apply propagates flags
+
+- **WHEN** a user runs `vp run hygiene -- --apply`
+- **THEN** vp passes the `--apply` flag through to `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`
+- **AND** fix mode runs as documented (cascade applies, safety envelope runs, no auto-revert on failure)
+
+#### Scenario: bun run hygiene fails after cutover
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run hygiene` post-migration
+- **AND** `hygiene` is defined ONLY in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` (not in `package.json` `scripts`)
+- **THEN** bun emits its standard "script not found" error and exits non-zero
+- **AND** the canonical invocation path remains `vp run hygiene`
+
+#### Scenario: bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh continues to work
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer runs `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` directly without going through vp or bun
+- **THEN** the script executes as before (vp dispatch is an additional surface, not a replacement)
+- **AND** the cascade behavior is identical
+
+#### Scenario: Hygiene remains excluded from CI under any dispatch surface
+
+- **WHEN** the repo's `.github/workflows/*.yaml` files are inspected
+- **THEN** no step invokes `vp run hygiene`, `bun run hygiene`, or `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`
+- **AND** the end-of-work-only contract holds regardless of which dispatch surface a workflow author might attempt
+
+### Requirement: Reconciler partial-clause edits preserve original-source spans
+
+When `reconcile-after-knip.ts` removes individual elements from an `export { a, b, c }` re-export clause where one or more elements have become stale (target file emptied, target export removed, target file deleted), the reconciler SHALL apply span-preserving deletions to the original source rather than reconstructing the clause text. Per-element trivia (leading JSDoc, linter-disable directives in the active or historical syntax — e.g., `oxlint-disable-next-line`, `biome-ignore` — comments, per-element `type` modifiers) for retained elements SHALL be preserved exactly as it appeared in the original source.
+
+#### Scenario: JSDoc above a retained export element is preserved
+
+- **GIVEN** a barrel containing `export { /** doc-A */ a, b, c } from './m';` where only `b` is stale
+- **WHEN** the reconciler runs
+- **THEN** the resulting source SHALL contain `export { /** doc-A */ a, c } from './m';` (or equivalent with `b` and its leading separator removed) with the JSDoc above `a` intact
+
+#### Scenario: Per-element type modifier is preserved
+
+- **GIVEN** a barrel containing `export { type Foo, bar, baz } from './m';` where only `baz` is stale
+- **WHEN** the reconciler runs
+- **THEN** the resulting source SHALL contain `export { type Foo, bar } from './m';`
+
+#### Scenario: Linter-disable directive on a retained element is preserved
+
+- **GIVEN** a barrel containing `export { /* biome-ignore lint/correctness/X: reason */ a, b } from './m';` where only `b` is stale
+- **WHEN** the reconciler runs
+- **THEN** the directive comment above `a` SHALL remain in the resulting source
+
+#### Scenario: oxlint-disable directive on a retained element is preserved
+
+- **GIVEN** a barrel containing `export { /* oxlint-disable-next-line correctness/X -- reason */ a, b } from './m';` where only `b` is stale
+- **WHEN** the reconciler runs
+- **THEN** the directive comment above `a` SHALL remain in the resulting source

+- [x] 1.1 Read `vite.config.ts:4-44` and confirm current `lint:` block matches the proposal's pre-state description (no `import/order`; no explicit `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps` / `react/no-array-index-key` / `no-console` rule entries; only `react/react-in-jsx-scope: 'off'` and `import/no-unassigned-import: 'off'`). DONE when current state confirmed.
+- [x] 1.2 Inspect representative import-order patterns in `packages/system/src/index.ts`, `packages/showcase/src/App.tsx`, and `packages/showcase/src/components/surfaces/SyntaxBlock.tsx` to determine the codebase's existing import-grouping convention (builtin → external → parent → sibling, or codebase-specific variant). DONE when convention noted in the chosen `import/order` `groups` config.
+- [x] 1.3 Confirm `bunx vp lint` runs cleanly against current HEAD (baseline). Record any pre-existing diagnostic count for comparison post-change. DONE when `bunx vp lint` exits zero (or pre-existing diagnostics are documented as the baseline). _Baseline: 0 warnings, 0 errors across 234 files._
+- [x] 1.4 Confirm `bunx --bun knip` runs cleanly against current HEAD (baseline). DONE when `bunx --bun knip` exits zero or pre-existing findings are documented. _Baseline: exit 0; knip flagged stale `_emit-biome-receipts.ts` in `.knip.json` ignoreFiles — directly validates §4.1._
+
+## 2. vite.config.ts lint config additions
+
+- [x] 2.1 ~~In `vite.config.ts:10-13` (the `lint.rules` object), ADD entry `'import/order': ['error', { groups: <chosen groups from §1.2>, 'newlines-between': 'always' }]`~~ **REVISED**: oxlint does not provide `import/order` rule (verified — error: "Rule 'order' not found in plugin 'import'"). Import-sorting lives in oxfmt's `sortImports` config, which per vite-plus docs goes IN the `fmt:` block of `vite.config.ts` (NOT in a separate `.oxfmtrc.json` / `oxfmt.config.ts` file — vp does not load standalone oxfmt configs). FINAL placement: `sortImports` block inside `vite.config.ts` `fmt:` with `react-libs` custom group → bracketed builtin/external → internal → bracketed parent/sibling/index → unknown. DONE when `bunx vp fmt --check` runs sort-imports rules and applies them across the codebase.
+- [x] 2.2 In `vite.config.ts` `lint.rules`, ADD entry `'react-hooks/exhaustive-deps': 'error'`. DONE when entry exists in the rules object.
+- [x] 2.3 In `vite.config.ts` `lint.rules`, ADD entry `'react/no-array-index-key': 'error'`. DONE when entry exists in the rules object.
+- [x] 2.4 In `vite.config.ts` `lint.rules`, ADD entry `'no-console': 'error'`. DONE when entry exists in the rules object.
+- [x] 2.5 Run `bunx vp lint` and inspect output. **Decision logged: option (c) — scope-based overrides + targeted disable-comments.** Initial enablement surfaced 41 errors (37 `no-console`, 4 `no-array-index-key`). Resolution applied:
+  - **Scope override** for `scripts/**/*.ts` + `e2e/*/scripts/**/*.ts`: `'no-console': 'off'` (CLI tooling legitimately uses console output).
+  - **Scope override** for `packages/{next-plugin,vite-plugin}/src/**/*.ts`: `'no-console': 'off'` (Vite/Next plugin warnings are intended developer-facing console output per Vite plugin convention).
+  - **Targeted disable-comments** at `packages/showcase/src/components/docs/ChainStep.tsx:762,764` (`react/no-array-index-key`): composite key `${s}-dot-${j}` with stable step identifier, index is fine.
+  - Post-resolution: `bunx vp lint` clean (0/0 across 235 files).
+
+## 3. Source-code directive migration (7 sites, 6 files)
+
+- [x] 3.1 In `packages/showcase/src/layout/ScrollToTop.tsx:6`, REPLACE `// biome-ignore lint/correctness/useExhaustiveDependencies: pathname triggers scroll reset on route change` with `// oxlint-disable-next-line react-hooks/exhaustive-deps -- pathname triggers scroll reset on route change`. DONE.
+- [x] 3.2 In `packages/showcase/src/layout/Shell.tsx:73`, REPLACE biome-ignore → oxlint-disable-next-line for `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps`. DONE.
+- [x] 3.3 In `packages/showcase/src/components/docs/PageToc.tsx:66`, REPLACE biome-ignore → oxlint-disable-next-line for `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps`. DONE.
+- [x] 3.4 In `packages/showcase/src/components/surfaces/SyntaxBlock.tsx:378`, REPLACE biome-ignore → oxlint-disable-next-line for `react/no-array-index-key`. DONE.
+- [x] 3.5 In `packages/showcase/src/components/surfaces/SyntaxBlock.tsx:409`, REPLACE biome-ignore → oxlint-disable-next-line for `react/no-array-index-key`. DONE (replace_all handled both 3.4 and 3.5 in one edit; both sites independently lint clean).
+- [x] 3.6 In `packages/system/src/theme/createTheme.ts:619`, REPLACE biome-ignore → oxlint-disable-next-line for `no-console`. DONE.
+- [x] 3.7 In `packages/system/src/theme/createTheme.ts:638`, REPLACE biome-ignore → oxlint-disable-next-line for `no-console`. DONE (replace_all handled both 3.6 and 3.7 in one edit; both sites independently lint clean).
+- [x] 3.8 Run `grep -rn "biome-ignore" packages/ --include="*.ts" --include="*.tsx"`. DONE: result is empty across `packages/`. Out-of-scope hits in `scripts/hygiene/**` (test fixtures, historical comments) are preserved as documented.
+
+## 4. .knip.json stale reference removal
+
+- [x] 4.1 In `.knip.json`, DELETE the line `    "scripts/hygiene/_emit-biome-receipts.ts",`. DONE — `grep -n '_emit-biome-receipts' .knip.json` returns no matches.
+- [x] 4.2 Run `bunx --bun knip`. DONE — exit 0; no new diagnostics; configuration-hint about `_emit-biome-receipts.ts` is gone from output.
+
+## 5. Verification gate
+
+- [x] 5.1 Run `bunx vp lint`. DONE — 0 warnings, 0 errors across 235 files.
+- [x] 5.2 Run `bunx vp fmt --check`. DONE — clean across change-dir; 5 pre-existing markdown drifts in canonical openspec/specs/ were whitespace-only (blank lines around headings) and were fmt'd in-flight (orthogonal to this proposal but co-shipped to clear the verify gate; non-semantic edits verified via `git diff`).
+- [x] 5.3 Run `vp run verify:lint`. DONE — composite passes (lint + fmt --check both clean post-§5.2 fix).
+- [x] 5.4 Run `bunx --bun knip`. DONE — exit 0.
+- [x] 5.5 Run `vp run verify`. DONE — exit 0; 8/8 tiers green (lint + compile + types + unit:ts + unit:rust [279/0/1] + canary).
+- [x] 5.6 Run `bun test`. DONE — 624 pass / 0 fail / 1612 expect() calls / 30 files / 1.16s. Matches baseline (no regression).
+
+## 6. Spec validation
+
+- [x] 6.1 Run `openspec validate finalize-biome-to-oxlint-residue --strict`. DONE — `Change 'finalize-biome-to-oxlint-residue' is valid` exit 0.
+- [x] 6.2 Confirm spec delta MODIFIED-block headers match canonical exactly. DONE — both `### Requirement: Hygiene Entrypoint Dispatched via vp run` and `### Requirement: Reconciler partial-clause edits preserve original-source spans` exist verbatim in both `specs/code-hygiene/spec.md` (delta) and `openspec/specs/code-hygiene/spec.md` (canonical).
+
+## 7. Final state-sync
+
+- [x] 7.1 Tick all completed tasks in this file using `- [x]`. DONE.
+- [x] 7.2 Confirm `openspec status --change finalize-biome-to-oxlint-residue` shows all artifacts done and apply-requires satisfied. DONE.
+- [x] 7.3 Hand off to user for archive: `openspec archive finalize-biome-to-oxlint-residue` — DONE; archive applied 2 MODIFIED requirement blocks to canonical `code-hygiene/spec.md` (`Totals: + 0, ~ 2, - 0, → 0`).
+
+## 8. Post-archive verification
+
+- [x] 8.1 `grep -n "biome safe → B biome unsafe-scoped" openspec/specs/code-hygiene/spec.md` returns empty — stale text replaced. ✓
+- [x] 8.2 `grep -n "Linter-disable directive on a retained element" openspec/specs/code-hygiene/spec.md` finds `### Scenario: Linter-disable directive on a retained element is preserved` at line 309 AND `### Scenario: oxlint-disable directive on a retained element is preserved` at line 315 — both renamed (from biome-ignore-only) AND newly-added scenarios applied. ✓
+- [x] 8.3 `openspec list --json` returns `{"changes":[]}` — `finalize-biome-to-oxlint-residue` is no longer active; resides at `openspec/changes/archive/2026-05-07-finalize-biome-to-oxlint-residue/`. ✓
+
+## In-flight notes (preserved for archival audit trail)
+
+**Scope adjustments during apply:**
+
+1. **§2.1 deviation (corrected mid-apply)**: oxlint does NOT have an `import/order` rule. Import-sorting in this stack is owned by oxfmt (the formatter), not oxlint. **Initial placement was wrong** — I created an `oxfmt.config.ts` file at repo root, interpreting user hints as "use a separate file." User corrected: vite-plus docs explicitly say to put fmt config IN the `fmt:` block of `vite.config.ts`; vp does not load standalone oxfmt configs. **Corrected**: deleted `oxfmt.config.ts`, restored `sortImports` block inside `vite.config.ts` `fmt:`. With sortImports actually active, 36 files needed import-sort fixup — applied via `vp fmt`. Verify gate re-run clean. _Confab-pull caught: built a story from a partial cue (user's `import { defineConfig } from 'oxfmt'` example) instead of verifying with vite-plus docs. Same anti-pattern as session 92's tsdown error misdiagnosis — adding to memory._
+2. **§2.5 expansion**: 41 lint violations surfaced when explicit rules went on. Resolved via path-scoped overrides (scripts/, e2e/\*/scripts/, plugin sources) + 2 targeted disable-comments at ChainStep.tsx. Both decisions land within proposal's stated scope (Risk 2 mitigation: "add `oxlint-disable-next-line` comments at the previously-uncaught sites with rationale").
+3. **§5.2 in-flight fix**: 5 pre-existing markdown drift warnings in canonical `openspec/specs/*.md` files were auto-formatted to clear the verify gate. The diffs are pure whitespace (blank lines around `## Requirements` headings, trailing-newline normalization) per `git diff` inspection — non-semantic. Co-shipped because the verify gate is mandatory and the drift is mechanical. Files affected: `build-orchestration`, `bun-workspace`, `code-hygiene`, `verification-tier-policy`, `workspace-build-ordering`.
+4. **Out-of-scope discovery**: `scripts/hygiene/_emit-oxlint-receipts.ts` is now flagged by knip as an unused file (was previously masked by `_emit-biome-receipts.ts` ignore entry). Not addressed by this proposal — separate decision. The `./animus-extract.wasi.cjs` ignoreUnresolved entry in `.knip.json` is also flagged as removable; not in scope.
+
+**File summary (final, post-correction):**
+
+- `vite.config.ts` — added 3 explicit lint-rule entries + 2 scope overrides + `sortImports` block in `fmt:`
+- `.knip.json` — removed 1 line (stale ignore-files entry)
+- `packages/showcase/src/layout/ScrollToTop.tsx` — 1 directive migrated
+- `packages/showcase/src/layout/Shell.tsx` — 1 directive migrated
+- `packages/showcase/src/components/docs/PageToc.tsx` — 1 directive migrated
+- `packages/showcase/src/components/surfaces/SyntaxBlock.tsx` — 2 directives migrated + import-sort applied
+- `packages/system/src/theme/createTheme.ts` — 2 directives migrated
+- `packages/showcase/src/components/docs/ChainStep.tsx` — 2 NEW disable comments added + import-sort applied
+- 36 source/test files (TS/TSX) — import-sort applied via `vp fmt` once sortImports went active
+- 5 canonical `openspec/specs/*.md` files — whitespace-only auto-format
+- ~~`oxfmt.config.ts`~~ — was created in error, then deleted per vite-plus docs (vp does not load standalone oxfmt configs)

+## Context
+
+Phase α (`migrate-lint-to-vp-check`) shipped the user-facing lint/format cutover from biome to oxlint+oxfmt. The hygiene cascade (Layers A/B/C/D/D1) was explicitly retained on biome because biome 2.x `--reporter=json` output drives coordinate-based deletion in Layer C and emission of structured receipts in Layers A/B. Phase β executes the deferred cutover: hygiene cascade Layers A/B/C rebind from biome to oxlint, `@biomejs/biome` removed from devDependencies, `biome.json` deleted, `require_biome()` retired.
+
+Pre-this-slice state (post-Phase-α):
+
+- `verify:lint` runs oxlint+oxfmt via `vp lint && vp fmt --check` (Phase α). User-facing biome wrappers in `package.json` deleted (Phase α).
+- `scripts/hygiene/run.sh` invokes biome via `BIOME=(bunx --bun @biomejs/biome)` at lines 234, 244, 247, 263, 266, 277, 279.
+- `scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.ts` parses biome 2.x diagnostic JSON shape (lines 25-31).
+- `scripts/hygiene/_emit-biome-receipts.ts` parses same shape for Layer A/B receipt emission.
+- `scripts/hygiene/presenter.ts:201` emits `WARN: biome diagnostics present...` text.
+- 25+ tests across `scripts/hygiene/{delete-unused,_emit-biome-receipts,presenter,reconcile-after-knip}.test.ts` consume biome-shaped synthetic JSON fixtures and (in `delete-unused.test.ts:74`) spawn the real biome binary as a contract test.
+- `@biomejs/biome: 2.4.9` in root `devDependencies`. `biome.json` at repo root.
+- `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh:102-104` defines `require_biome()` consumed by `require_code_hygiene_deps` at line 124.
+
+Empirical probe completed (this session, against `.oxprobe/violation.ts`):
+
+- `vp lint --format=json` exists and emits structured diagnostics. Confirmed via `bunx vp lint --help` and round-trip on the fixture.
+- Output shape is NOT byte-compatible with biome 2.x. Adapter required (D1 below).
+- Rule-name surface differs: oxlint's `no-unused-vars` covers what biome split into `noUnusedVariables` + `noUnusedFunctionParameters` + `noUnusedImports` (3 distinct biome rules). Discriminator must shift from rule-name (biome) to message-text prefix (oxlint).
+- `vp lint --fix` (default safe) does NOT remove unused declarations. `vp lint --fix-suggestions` removes unused IMPORTS but leaves top-level const/function. `vp lint --fix-dangerously` removes neither in our test (counter-intuitive but matches oxlint's "dangerous = behavior-change" semantic, which import removal isn't).
+
+Stakeholders: Aaron (sole repo author / sole maintainer). Sole-maintainer convention; risk acceptance documented in `proposal.md` Risk Acceptance section.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+
+- Replace biome with oxlint as the linter backend for hygiene cascade Layers A/B/C. Layer D (knip) and Layer D1 (reconcile-after-knip) unchanged.
+- Adapt `delete-unused.ts` to consume oxlint's JSON shape (D1) and use message-text prefix as the rule-class discriminator (D2).
+- Reorganize the layer scope based on what `vp lint --fix-suggestions` already covers: Layer A grows to include unused-import removal (was Layer B); Layer B contracts to noUnusedPrivateClassMembers-only (and may be eliminated entirely if oxlint has no equivalent rule).
+- Remove `@biomejs/biome` from devDependencies. Delete `biome.json`. Remove `require_biome()` helper.
+- Update 5 requirements in `code-hygiene/spec.md` to remove biome-specific language. Preserve all layer-semantic contracts (A safe-fix, B scoped-delete, C intra-file deleter, D knip, D1 reconcile), receipt schema, convergence semantics, safety envelope, end-of-work-only contract.
+- Preserve the live-integration test at `delete-unused.test.ts:74` rebound to spawn `vp lint --format=json` instead of biome. This is the load-bearing regression-detection mechanism per `feedback_live_integration_vs_synthetic.md`.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+
+- No `biome-ignore` directive migration in `packages/*/src/**`. Existing comments stay as-is; their migration to `oxlint-disable-` syntax is a separate cleanup slice (mechanical grep+replace OR per-comment validation). Tasks.md includes a grep-probe step to enumerate them so the maintainer can decide.
+- No tsdown → rolldown migration (`migrate-build-to-vp-pack`).
+- No `bun test` → Vitest migration (`migrate-test-to-vp-test`).
+- No `vp cache` cleaning surface adoption (`resolve-clean-surface`).
+- No new linter rules added to the cascade. The set of categories Layer A/B/C act on stays semantically identical: unused decls (intra-file), unused imports, unused private class members, format violations.
+- No CI workflow changes. Hygiene is end-of-work-only.
+
+## Decisions
+
+**D1: JSON-shape adapter, not pass-through.**
+
+Oxlint's JSON output shape (probed empirically):
+
+```json
+{
+  "diagnostics": [
+    {
+      "code": "eslint(no-unused-vars)",
+      "filename": ".oxprobe/violation.ts",
+      "labels": [{"span": {"offset": 6, "length": 11, "line": 1, "column": 7}}],
+      "help": "Consider removing this declaration.",
+      "message": "Variable 'unusedConst' is declared but never used. Unused variables should start with a '_'.",
+      "severity": "error",
+      "url": "https://oxc.rs/...",
+      "causes": [],
+      "related": []
+    }
+  ],
+  "number_of_files": 1,
+  "number_of_rules": 147,
+  ...
+}
+```
+
+Biome 2.x shape (consumed by current `delete-unused.ts:25-31`):
+
+```ts
+type BiomeLoc = {
+  path: string;
+  start: { line; column };
+  end: { line; column };
+};
+type BiomeDiagnostic = { category: string; location: BiomeLoc };
+type BiomeReport = { diagnostics: BiomeDiagnostic[] };
+```
+
+Field-by-field mapping:
+
+| Biome 2.x                               | Oxlint                                        | Notes                                                |
+| --------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
+| `diagnostic.category`                   | `diagnostic.code`                             | oxlint wraps as `eslint(rule-name)`; strip wrapper   |
+| `diagnostic.location.path`              | `diagnostic.filename`                         | top-level field, no nesting                          |
+| `diagnostic.location.start.line`        | `diagnostic.labels[0].span.line`              | both 1-indexed                                       |
+| `diagnostic.location.start.column`      | `diagnostic.labels[0].span.column`            | both 1-indexed                                       |
+| `diagnostic.location.end.{line,column}` | derived from `labels[0].span.{offset,length}` | end = offset + length, mapped to line/col via source |
+
+Adapter strategy: introduce an `OxlintReport` type alongside `BiomeReport`, write a `normalizeDiagnostic(d: OxlintDiagnostic): NormalizedDiag` function that produces the same shape `applyDeletions` already consumes internally. The downstream logic (`findNodeAtOffset`, `resolveTarget`, `expandToLineBounds`, `rangeForVarDeclOfMany`, `rangeForBindingElement`, `findOverloadGroupStart`) is shape-agnostic — it operates on TypeScript AST nodes once the source-offset is computed. Only the input parser changes substantively.
+
+Alternative considered: write an oxlint-output → biome-shape converter and leave `applyDeletions` untouched. Rejected because (a) BiomeReport type names and `category` field name reading "biome" in the live code is misleading post-migration; (b) the converter doesn't simplify anything — same field-mapping logic, just wrapped differently.
+
+**D2: Rule-class discrimination via message-text prefix, not rule-name.**
+
+Biome distinguishes 4 rule classes via 4 distinct `category` strings:
+
+- `correctness/noUnusedVariables` — top-level `const`/`let`/`var`/`function`/`class`/`type`/`interface`/`enum`
+- `correctness/noUnusedFunctionParameters` — function parameter (positional or destructured)
+- `correctness/noUnusedImports` — unused named import
+- `correctness/noUnusedPrivateClassMembers` — unused private member
+
+Oxlint folds the first three into one rule (`no-unused-vars`) plus uses `eslint-plugin-import`'s `no-unused-modules` for some import cases (PENDING verification). The discriminator within `no-unused-vars` is the diagnostic message prefix:
+
+| oxlint message prefix                              | corresponds to biome rule           |
+| -------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------- |
+| `"Variable '<X>' is declared but never used..."`   | `noUnusedVariables` (const/let/var) |
+| `"Function '<X>' is declared but never used..."`   | `noUnusedVariables` (function)      |
+| `"Class '<X>' is declared but never used..."`      | `noUnusedVariables` (class)         |
+| `"Type '<X>' is declared but never used..."`       | `noUnusedVariables` (type alias)    |
+| `"Interface '<X>' is declared but never used..."`  | `noUnusedVariables` (interface)     |
+| `"Enum '<X>' is declared but never used..."`       | `noUnusedVariables` (enum)          |
+| `"Identifier '<X>' is imported but never used..."` | `noUnusedImports`                   |
+| `"Parameter '<X>' is declared but never used..."`  | `noUnusedFunctionParameters`        |
+
+The discriminator function `classifyUnusedVar(message: string): "decl" | "import" | "param"` parses the first word after `"`. Implementation: regex match against `^[A-Z][a-z]+ '/^Identifier '/^Argument '`. Fragile to oxlint message-text drift but the live-integration test at `delete-unused.test.ts:74` provides regression detection (per session-89 lesson, per `feedback_live_integration_vs_synthetic.md`).
+
+Alternative considered: introspect oxlint's `code` field at finer granularity (e.g., is there a `eslint(no-unused-imports)` plugin code distinct from `eslint(no-unused-vars)`?). PENDING verification — if the plugin distinguishes, prefer code-based discrimination. Tasks.md probes both paths.
+
+**D3: Layer A scope grows; Layer B removed entirely.**
+
+Empirical finding from probe: `vp lint --fix-suggestions` removes unused imports automatically. Under biome, `correctness/noUnusedImports` was Layer B's responsibility (because biome's `--write` safe-fix did NOT remove imports — they required `--unsafe`). Under oxlint, `--fix-suggestions` covers it without unsafe-mode.
+
+Rebinding consequence:
+
+- **Layer A**: invokes `vp lint --fix-suggestions` (was `biome check --write`). Now removes unused imports in addition to safe format-fixes. Layer A's emission contract still holds — emit one receipt per observed diagnostic, log as `verb="format"` with `kind="format-only"` for non-deletion fixes and `kind="named-import"` with `verb="delete"` for import removals. `_emit-oxlint-receipts.ts` discriminates.
+- **Layer B**: REMOVED. Empirical probe (this session) confirmed oxlint has `no-unused-private-class-members` in its rule registry (per `vp lint --rules`) — it follows ESLint 1:1 semantics, which means the rule targets ECMAScript `#field` syntax only and does NOT fire on TypeScript `private` keyword fields. Animus uses `private` keyword everywhere (no `#field` usage in `packages/*/src/**`), so the rule has empty scope under our codebase. Layer B is removed from the cascade entirely; the cascade becomes A → C → D → D1.
+
+This decision affects the spec: `Single flag-driven hygiene entrypoint` requirement (which references "layers A (biome safe), B (biome unsafe-scoped delete), C (home-roll deleter), D (knip fix), D1 (reconcile-after-knip)") is updated to remove "biome safe" / "biome unsafe-scoped" qualifiers and to optionally remove Layer B if it becomes empty. Tasks.md includes the verification probe before committing the spec change.
+
+Alternative considered: keep Layer B even if empty, as a placeholder for future linter-specific safe-rule scoping. Rejected because (a) empty layer is dead code, (b) cascade convergence verdicts (per `presenter.ts`) treat each layer as a deletion source — an empty layer would always emit zero receipts, contributing nothing to verdict computation.
+
+**D4: `_emit-biome-receipts.ts` renamed, not in-place edited.**
+
+The file is renamed `_emit-oxlint-receipts.ts` to make the linter binding visible in the filename. `run.sh:251` and `run.sh:270` invocations updated. Test file (if exists) renamed in lockstep.
+
+Alternative considered: rename to `_emit-linter-receipts.ts` (linter-neutral). Rejected because (a) the file consumes a specific linter's JSON shape; the filename should reflect that surface; (b) future linter rebinding would create the same naming question — solving it once with `_emit-oxlint-receipts.ts` is honest about the current binding without being abstractly correct.
+
+**D5: `biome-ignore` directive comments left as-is in source.**
+
+`packages/*/src/**` contains an unknown number of `// biome-ignore lint/<rule>: <reason>` directive comments. Under oxlint, these become inert (no rule-disabling effect). They're not invalid syntax — just inert comments. Mass-migrating them to `oxlint-disable-` syntax is a separate cleanup slice with its own scope (mechanical grep+replace, but each one needs review for whether the ignore is still needed under oxlint's rule set).
+
+This slice's scope: enumerate `biome-ignore` occurrences via grep, document the count in tasks.md, leave them in place. The maintainer decides separately whether to migrate.
+
+**D6: Spec MODIFIED blocks: 5 requirements, all linter-specific language removed.**
+
+Per `feedback_openspec_modified_semantics.md`, MODIFIED delta blocks REPLACE the full requirement content on archive. This slice modifies 5 requirements in `openspec/specs/code-hygiene/spec.md`:
+
+1. `Side-effect imports are preserved` — remove biome rationale
+2. `Positional function parameters preserve arity via rename, not delete` — remove biome rule reference
+3. `Preconditions fail loud with actionable messages` — replace biome scenario with oxlint scenario
+4. `noConsole auto-fix is excluded from Layer B` — generalize rule reference (still applicable to oxlint's `no-console`)
+5. `Layer C category-drift is detected at startup` — `category` → `code`, `categoriesSeen` → `codesSeen`
+
+Each MODIFIED block contains the full new text of the requirement, not a diff. Tasks.md confirms no concurrent change in flight modifies these requirements (otherwise archive ordering becomes load-bearing).
+
+**D7: Live-integration test rebinding preserves regression-detection capability.**
+
+`delete-unused.test.ts:74`'s live test currently spawns `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome check --reporter=json <fixture>` and asserts that oxc-rejected categories surface as `lint/correctness/noUnusedVariables`. This is the test that caught session 89's silent no-op (the biome 2.x `lint/`-prefix change).
+
+Under oxlint, the equivalent test spawns `bunx vp lint --format=json <fixture>` and asserts:
+
+- `diagnostics[].code` matches expected pattern (e.g., `eslint(no-unused-vars)`)
+- `diagnostics[].filename` is the fixture path
+- `diagnostics[].labels[0].span.line/column` are 1-indexed and point at the violation
+
+If oxlint changes any of: the `code` wrapper format (`eslint(...)` → something else), the `filename` field name, the `labels` array shape, the `span` field schema — the live test fails loud. Same regression-detection mechanism, different contract surface.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[oxlint message-text drift between versions]** → Mitigated by D2 + D7 (live-integration test exercises the real binary every test run). Same mechanism that caught session 89.
+- **[Phase β unblocks `@biomejs/biome` removal but couples to vp@0.1.20]** → ACCEPTED. vp+oxlint version pinning is the trade. Future linter rebind (e.g., to a different vp version's bundled oxlint) is a separate slice.
+- **[Layer B empty-or-shrunken depending on oxlint's noUnusedPrivateClassMembers equivalent]** → Mitigated by D3 verification probe in tasks.md. If empty, Layer B removed; if rule exists, Layer B retained.
+- **[`biome-ignore` comments inert under oxlint]** → ACCEPTED per D5. Tasks.md provides grep enumeration; maintainer decides on migration timing. Risk: latent oxlint violations that biome was suppressing become live errors. Mitigation: post-Phase-β `vp run verify:lint` should be clean against current HEAD before merging; if it's not, the inert directives were masking real violations and need to be addressed.
+- **[Test rewrite synthetic-fixture risk]** → Mitigated per `feedback_live_integration_vs_synthetic.md`: rewrite fixtures by capturing live oxlint output rather than hand-authoring.
+- **[knip interaction with linter-driven A/B/C state changes]** → Mitigated: cascade convergence is receipt-derived; iteration-cap-based verdict surfaces divergence loudly. Spec invariant survives.
+- **[require_biome removal and dependent code paths]** → Mitigated by tasks.md grep-probe before removal.
+- **[Spec MODIFIED collision risk]** → Mitigated by tasks.md confirm-no-concurrent-change step.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+1. **Author this proposal + design + tasks + spec deltas.** (This step.)
+2. **Empirical probes** (tasks.md §1):
+   - Verify oxlint has `no-unused-private-class-members` equivalent rule (D3 unblocking).
+   - Probe oxlint's diagnostic message text for function-parameter case (D2 message-prefix completion).
+   - Probe `vp lint -D <rule>` deny-rule scoping syntax (Layer B replacement for biome's `--only=<rule>`).
+   - Grep `biome-ignore` directive count in `packages/*/src/**` (D5 baseline).
+   - Grep `require_biome` references outside `require_code_hygiene_deps` (zero expected; sanity check).
+3. **Layer C rewrite** (tasks.md §2): adapter for oxlint JSON shape; message-text discriminator; tests rewritten with captured-from-live fixtures.
+4. **Layer A/B rebinding** (tasks.md §3): `run.sh` updated; `_emit-biome-receipts.ts` renamed and rewritten; presenter drift WARN updated.
+5. **Spec deltas** (tasks.md §4): 5 MODIFIED requirements drafted, validated.
+6. **Dependency removal** (tasks.md §5): `@biomejs/biome` removed from `package.json`; `biome.json` deleted; `require_biome` removed from `_preconditions.sh`.
+7. **End-to-end smoke** (tasks.md §6): `vp run hygiene` (scan mode) on a clean worktree; `vp run hygiene --apply` on a synthetic fixture; convergence verdict matches expected; receipts schema valid; safety envelope passes.
+8. **Final verification** (tasks.md §7): `vp run verify:full` clean; `openspec validate migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint --strict` clean; rollback procedure verified on throwaway branch.
+9. **Merge to `next`.** Single commit. Phase β shipped.
+
+**Rollback path**: revert the commit. `package.json` re-adds `@biomejs/biome: 2.4.9`; `bun install` materializes it. `biome.json` restored from git history. `_preconditions.sh` `require_biome` restored. `scripts/hygiene/{delete-unused,run.sh,_emit-biome-receipts,presenter}.{ts,sh}` restored to biome bindings. Test files restored. Spec MODIFIED blocks reverted. Single-commit rollback.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- **Oxlint's `noUnusedPrivateClassMembers` equivalent.** RESOLVED — rule exists in oxlint registry but follows ESLint 1:1 semantics (targets `#field` only, not TS `private` keyword). Empty scope under Animus codebase. Layer B REMOVED.
+- **Oxlint's deny-rule flag syntax.** N/A — Layer B removed; no scoped invocation needed in this slice.
+- **Oxlint diagnostic message-text for function parameters.** PENDING — probe in tasks.md §1. The discriminator function (D2) needs the exact prefix to discriminate function-parameter cases from other unused-vars cases.
+- **`biome-ignore` directive migration timing.** RESOLVED — out of scope for this slice (D5). Maintainer decides separately.
+- **Spec MODIFIED concurrency.** PENDING — confirm at archive time that no sibling change in flight modifies the same 5 code-hygiene requirements.

+## Why
+
+`migrate-lint-to-vp-check` (Phase α) shipped the user-facing lint/format cutover from biome to oxlint+oxfmt for the `verify:lint` atomic tier. That slice explicitly retained biome for the hygiene cascade because Layers A, B, and C consume biome 2.x `--reporter=json` output to drive coordinate-based deletion of intra-file dead declarations. This proposal (Phase β) executes that deferred cutover: rebind the hygiene cascade Layers A/B/C from biome to oxlint, remove `@biomejs/biome` from devDependencies, delete `biome.json`, and retire the `require_biome()` helper.
+
+Three forcing functions:
+
+1. **Phase α left a known governance artifact gap.** `migrate-lint-to-vp-check`'s Risk Acceptance documented retroactive proposal authoring as a one-time process violation. Phase β is the slice that closes the underlying technical gap (biome still installed because hygiene needs it). Until Phase β ships, `@biomejs/biome` cannot be removed and the repo carries two linter installations.
+
+2. **Empirical JSON shape probe completed (this session).** Oxlint's `--format=json` output was probed against a fixture with deliberate `noUnusedVariables`, `noUnusedFunctionParameters`, and `noUnusedImports` violations. The shape is NOT byte-compatible with biome 2.x; an adapter pass is required (see `design.md` D1 for shape mapping). The mechanical port hypothesis was falsified — Phase β is a substantive rewrite of the Layer C deleter, not a JSON-key rebinding.
+
+3. **Rule-name surface is asymmetric.** Biome's `noUnusedVariables` / `noUnusedFunctionParameters` / `noUnusedImports` (3 rules) collapse into oxlint's single `no-unused-vars` rule discriminated by diagnostic message-text prefix ("Variable 'X' is declared..." / "Function 'X' is declared..." / "Identifier 'X' is imported..."). The deleter's per-rule branching logic (`delete-unused.ts:307-313` filters `noUnusedFunctionParameters` to BindingElement-only) must be re-implemented as message-text discrimination. Fragile but tractable.
+
+## What Changes
+
+### Hygiene cascade Layer rebinding
+
+- **Layer A (safe fixes)**: replace `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome check --write` with `bunx vp lint --fix-suggestions` (or equivalent — oxlint's `--fix` taxonomy verified via probe). Layer A's empirical scope expands slightly: oxlint's `--fix-suggestions` already removes unused imports, which biome required Layer B to handle separately. Layer A now covers safe-format-fixes AND unused-import deletion in one pass.
+- **Layer B (unsafe-scoped delete)**: REMOVED. Under biome, Layer B handled `correctness/noUnusedImports` + `correctness/noUnusedPrivateClassMembers`. Under oxlint: unused-imports moves to Layer A (covered by `--fix-suggestions`); `no-unused-private-class-members` exists in oxlint's registry but follows ESLint 1:1 semantics (targets ECMAScript `#field` only, not TS `private` keyword) — Animus uses `private` keyword exclusively, giving the rule empty scope. Layer B is removed from the cascade; the cascade becomes A → C → D → D1.
+- **Layer C (home-roll deleter)**: rewritten to consume oxlint JSON shape. `delete-unused.ts` becomes the JSON-shape adapter:
+  - `BiomeReport` → `OxlintReport` type definitions
+  - `category` field → `code` field (with `eslint(...)` wrapper unwrap)
+  - `location.path` → `filename` (top-level field)
+  - `location.start.{line,column}` → `labels[0].span.{line,column}`
+  - `TARGET_CATEGORIES = {"correctness/noUnusedVariables", "correctness/noUnusedFunctionParameters"}` → `TARGET_CODES = {"eslint(no-unused-vars)"}` plus message-text discriminator function `classifyUnusedVar(message)` returning `"const"|"function"|"import"|"destructured"|"function-param"`
+  - `noUnusedFunctionParameters` BindingElement-only filter (line 307-313) replaced with message-text-prefix branching
+- **Layer D / D1 (knip)**: unchanged. Knip is independent of the linter; its JSON shape (`exports`, `files`, `dependencies`) stays as-is.
+
+### Cascade orchestrator
+
+- **`scripts/hygiene/run.sh`**: replace 7 biome invocations (lines 234, 244, 247, 263, 266, 277, 279) with their oxlint equivalents. The `BIOME=(bunx --bun @biomejs/biome)` array (line 234) becomes `OXLINT=(bunx vp lint)`. Layer-A and Layer-C functions invoke `--format=json` (matching the new flag name); Layer-B's `--only=...` filter syntax replaced with oxlint's `-D rule-name` deny-rule pattern (or equivalent — tasks.md verification).
+- **`scripts/hygiene/_emit-biome-receipts.ts`** → renamed to `_emit-oxlint-receipts.ts` with the same emission contract (`v1` schema receipts with `iter`/`layer`/`verb`/`target`/`kind`) but the input-side parser updated to oxlint shape.
+- **`scripts/hygiene/presenter.ts:201`**: `WARN: biome diagnostics present...` text updated to `WARN: oxlint diagnostics present...`. The category-drift detection logic generalizes: oxlint's `code` field replaces biome's `category` field as the drift discriminator.
+
+### Test suite rewrite
+
+- **`scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.test.ts`**: 21 tests. Most are JSON-shape contract tests against synthetic fixtures; rewrite all synthetic JSON to oxlint shape. The live-integration test at line 74 (`spawnSync('bunx', ['--bun', '@biomejs/biome', 'check', '--reporter=json', path])`) is the load-bearing one — replace with `spawnSync('bunx', ['vp', 'lint', '--format=json', path])`. Per `feedback_live_integration_vs_synthetic.md`, the live test catches synthetic-fixture-vs-real-tool divergence; preserve it through the cutover.
+- **`scripts/hygiene/_emit-biome-receipts.test.ts`** (if exists): rewrite for oxlint shape.
+- **`scripts/hygiene/presenter.test.ts:245-285`**: 4 tests reference `<biome>` as drift target and `WARN: biome diagnostics present`. Update to `<oxlint>` and `WARN: oxlint diagnostics present`.
+- **`scripts/hygiene/reconcile-after-knip.test.ts:444-457`**: tests assert `biome-ignore` directive preservation. The directive comment syntax stays as `biome-ignore`-prefixed for repo continuity (existing comments in `packages/*/src/**` are not migrated as part of this slice). Test text unchanged; rationale documented in tasks.md as deliberate non-scope item.
+
+### Dependency + config removal
+
+- **Remove `"@biomejs/biome": "2.4.9"`** from root `package.json` `devDependencies`.
+- **Delete `biome.json`** at repo root.
+- **Remove `require_biome()`** from `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh:102-104` and `require_code_hygiene_deps`'s biome-precondition call (line 124).
+- **Update `_preconditions.sh`** to add `require_oxlint()` (or use `require_vp` since oxlint is bundled in vp@0.1.20). Most likely path: replace `require_biome` with `require_vp_lint` that probes `bunx vp lint --version`.
+
+### Spec deltas
+
+- **`code-hygiene` spec** (`openspec/specs/code-hygiene/spec.md`): MODIFY 5 requirements to replace biome-specific text with linter-neutral text:
+  - `Side-effect imports are preserved` (lines 50-58): remove "Biome does not flag side-effect imports as unused by design" rationale; replace with "The active linter does not flag side-effect imports."
+  - `Positional function parameters preserve arity via rename, not delete` (lines 60-68): remove "Biome's `noUnusedFunctionParameters` unsafe auto-fix renames..." reference; replace with rule-name-neutral text. Document under-the-hood that oxlint folds noUnusedFunctionParameters into no-unused-vars.
+  - `Preconditions fail loud with actionable messages` (lines 168-181): replace "biome missing" scenario with "linter missing" scenario (oxlint via vp).
+  - `noConsole auto-fix is excluded from Layer B` (lines 194-202): biome-specific rule reference. Update to "Layer B's linter invocation SHALL use rule-scoping that excludes any rule whose auto-fix would strip diagnostic logging output." (Generalizes; oxlint may have an equivalent `no-console` rule with similar fix behavior.)
+  - `Layer C category-drift is detected at startup` (lines 249-264): biome 2.x JSON-shape-coupled. Update to oxlint shape: drift is detected via `code` field rather than `category` field; sentinel receipt extras becomes `extras.codesSeen` instead of `extras.categoriesSeen`.
+
+### CI workflow
+
+- **`.github/workflows/ci.yaml`**: hygiene cascade is end-of-work-only and never CI-invoked per the existing spec. No CI changes needed unless biome was referenced anywhere in CI (verified: only biome reference in CI was the line 26 `bun run check`, removed in Phase α).
+
+This change is **NOT BREAKING for consumers** of `@animus-ui/*` packages. It IS breaking for any developer or agent that has scripts invoking `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome` directly outside the cascade — those callers must rebind to `bunx vp lint` (or accept that biome is no longer installed). At time of authoring, no such external scripts exist in the repo (verified via grep).
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+(none — this slice rebinds an existing capability's tooling)
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `code-hygiene`: 5 requirements modified to remove biome-specific language and replace with linter-neutral text. Layer semantics preserved (A safe-fix + format, B scoped-delete, C home-roll intra-file deleter, D knip cross-file, D1 reconciler). Receipt schema preserved verbatim. Drift-detection mechanism preserved with field-name update (`category` → `code`). Cascade convergence semantics, safety envelope, recovery snapshot, end-of-work-only contract — all preserved unchanged.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Code**:
+  - `scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.ts` — rewritten as oxlint adapter
+  - `scripts/hygiene/run.sh` — 7 biome invocations replaced
+  - `scripts/hygiene/_emit-biome-receipts.ts` → `_emit-oxlint-receipts.ts`
+  - `scripts/hygiene/presenter.ts:201` — drift WARN text + drift discriminator
+  - `scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.test.ts` — 21 tests, all JSON fixtures rewritten + 1 live-integration test rebound
+  - `scripts/hygiene/_emit-biome-receipts.test.ts` (if exists) — JSON fixtures rewritten
+  - `scripts/hygiene/presenter.test.ts:245-285` — 4 tests text-updated
+  - `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` — `require_biome` removed, `require_vp_lint` added (or equivalent)
+  - `package.json` — `@biomejs/biome: 2.4.9` removed from devDependencies
+  - `biome.json` — DELETED
+  - `openspec/specs/code-hygiene/spec.md` — 5 MODIFIED requirements
+- **Dependencies**: `@biomejs/biome: 2.4.9` REMOVED from devDependencies. Net dep count decreases by 1. `vite-plus@0.1.20` already installed (no change). `knip@^6` retained (unchanged). `typescript@6.0.3` retained (per typescript-toolchain).
+- **CI**: no changes (hygiene is end-of-work-only, never CI-invoked).
+- **Out of scope** (deferred to future slices):
+  - `biome-ignore` directive comments in `packages/*/src/**` — left as-is. These serve as historical markers; oxlint's `oxlint-disable-` directives are the going-forward syntax (already adopted in `packages/showcase/src/pages/Examples.tsx:824`). Migration of `biome-ignore` to `oxlint-disable` is a separate cleanup slice (potentially mechanical via grep + replace, but not a hygiene-cascade concern).
+  - `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` (umbrella enumeration) — tsdown → rolldown via `vp pack`. Independent of hygiene cascade.
+  - `migrate-test-to-vp-test` (umbrella enumeration) — bun test → Vitest. Independent.
+  - `resolve-clean-surface` (umbrella enumeration) — `vp cache` adoption. Independent.
+- **Tradeoff**: oxlint's `no-unused-vars` rule covers what biome split into 3 separate rules. Per-rule branching in `delete-unused.ts` becomes per-message-text-prefix branching, which is more fragile (oxlint's diagnostic message text is part of the API surface that could change between versions). Mitigation: the `live-integration` test at `delete-unused.test.ts:74` exercises the real oxlint binary on every test run, so a message-text change would surface as a test failure rather than silent rejection — preserves the same regression-detection capability that biome's `lint/`-prefix change validated in session 89.
+
+## Risk Acceptance
+
+oxlint v1.x is more mature than biome 2.x for full-coverage repository linting in some senses (faster, more plugins) but has a less stable diagnostic message-text format (oxlint diagnostics text is part of the user-facing API but not version-pinned the same way as JSON field names). The hygiene cascade Layer C depends on this message-text format for rule discrimination.
+
+**Specific exposure for this slice (hygiene cascade rebind):**
+
+- **Message-text-coupled discriminator fragility.** Layer C now distinguishes `noUnusedVariables` (top-level decl) from `noUnusedImports` (import) from `noUnusedFunctionParameters` (binding element) by parsing oxlint's diagnostic message prefix. If a future oxlint version reformats these messages, the discriminator could silently mismatch. Mitigation: live-integration test at `delete-unused.test.ts:74` runs against the real oxlint binary on every cascade-test invocation. Any message-text change surfaces as a test failure; the version-bump regression class is contained by the same mechanism that caught session 89's silent no-op.
+- **Phase α / Phase β interaction risk.** Phase α retained `_preconditions.sh:102-104` `require_biome()` to keep the hygiene tier callable. Phase β removes that helper. If any latent code path references `require_biome` outside `require_code_hygiene_deps`, it breaks silently. Mitigation: tasks.md includes a grep-probe for `require_biome` references before removal; expected zero matches.
+- **Test-suite rewrite blast radius.** 25+ tests need JSON-fixture rewrite. The synthetic fixtures encode the deleter's "what should be deleted vs preserved" contract; rewriting them risks introducing semantic drift. Mitigation: per `feedback_live_integration_vs_synthetic.md`, the live-integration test at line 74 is the source of truth for shape correctness — rewrite synthetic fixtures by running the live test against a known fixture and copying the output, rather than hand-authoring.
+- **Spec MODIFIED block semantics.** Per `feedback_openspec_modified_semantics.md`, MODIFIED delta blocks REPLACE the full requirement content on archive. This slice modifies 5 requirements in code-hygiene; if a sibling change also modifies any of these 5, the latest archive wins. Mitigation: confirm at archive time that no concurrent code-hygiene MODIFIED block is in flight.
+- **biome-ignore directive non-migration.** Existing `biome-ignore` comments in source code remain valid syntax for biome but become inert after biome removal. They're treated as ordinary comments by oxlint (no rule-disabling effect) — could mask latent oxlint violations that biome was suppressing. Mitigation: tasks.md includes a step to grep for `biome-ignore` directives in `packages/*/src/**` and either (a) migrate to `oxlint-disable-` syntax mechanically, or (b) verify each one is no longer needed. Grep-and-classify before removal.
+- **knip is unchanged but interacts with linter changes via convergence.** Layer D (knip) runs after Layers A/B/C; its input is the post-A/B/C state of the worktree. If oxlint-driven A/B/C diverge from biome's behavior (e.g., oxlint removes an import biome would have left, or vice versa), Layer D's input differs subtly. Mitigation: cascade convergence is receipt-derived per `presenter.ts`; the iteration-cap-based verdict surfaces divergence loudly. Spec invariant `Cascade iterates to convergence or iteration cap` survives the rebind.
+
+**Maintainer signature**: implicit per sole-maintainer convention. Acceptance scope: hygiene cascade rebind only. Does NOT extend to `migrate-build-to-vp-pack`, `migrate-test-to-vp-test`, `resolve-clean-surface`, or any future vp-related cutover.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Side-effect imports are preserved
+
+The cascade SHALL NOT remove side-effect imports (`import 'module-name';` without bindings). The active linter does not flag side-effect imports as unused by design, and the home-roll deleter SHALL NOT augment the linter's detection to include them.
+
+#### Scenario: Side-effect import survives cascade
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `import 'some-side-effect-module';` at the top
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the resulting file SHALL still contain that import statement
+
+### Requirement: Positional function parameters preserve arity via rename, not delete
+
+The cascade SHALL NOT DELETE positional function parameters. When the active linter offers an unsafe auto-fix that renames unused positional parameters to `_`-prefixed names, the cascade SHALL leave that rule's reporting as a warning (not auto-applied) for human review; it SHALL NOT auto-rename positional parameters as part of the cascade.
+
+oxlint's `no-unused-vars` rule does not offer rename-as-fix for positional parameters; under the oxlint binding, parameters are reported as errors and left for human resolution. The home-roll deleter (Layer C) SHALL NOT delete positional parameters because doing so would change function arity, which is a public-API contract.
+
+#### Scenario: Positional param is not deleted
+
+- **WHEN** a function `function f(a: number, unusedB: string) { return a; }` is present
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the function signature SHALL still contain two parameters (arity = 2) after the cascade
+
+### Requirement: Preconditions fail loud with actionable messages
+
+The orchestrator SHALL require knip, the active linter (oxlint via vite-plus), and typescript to be available; it SHALL detect missing tooling at startup and exit non-zero with an actionable "Run: <command>" message in the format established by `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh`.
+
+#### Scenario: knip missing emits actionable error
+
+- **WHEN** `knip` is not installed (not present in `node_modules/`)
+- **AND** the orchestrator starts
+- **THEN** it SHALL exit non-zero with the message "ERROR: knip missing. Run: bun install"
+
+#### Scenario: Linter missing emits actionable error
+
+- **WHEN** the active linter binary is not reachable via `bunx vp lint --version`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL exit non-zero with the message "ERROR: vp lint missing. Run: bun install"
+
+### Requirement: Diagnostic-logging-stripping rules are excluded from cascade auto-fix
+
+Cascade layers that invoke the active linter's auto-fix capability SHALL NOT enable rules whose auto-fix removes diagnostic logging output (e.g., a `no-console` rule in any linter). The cascade preserves `console.log` / `console.warn` / `console.error` calls as runtime-observable diagnostic surfaces; the linter's safe-fix configuration in cascade layers MUST exclude any rule whose fix strips these calls.
+
+This requirement is linter-neutral and applies to any cascade layer using auto-fix — historically Layer B (biome `--unsafe` scoped to specific rules), now Layer A (oxlint `--fix-suggestions`). It survives layer-set restructuring as long as some cascade layer invokes auto-fix.
+
+#### Scenario: console.warn survives cascade auto-fix layer
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `console.warn('diagnostic')` as a genuine runtime-observable line
+- **AND** the cascade's auto-fix layer runs against that file
+- **THEN** the `console.warn` call SHALL remain in the resulting file
+
+### Requirement: Layer C code-drift is detected at startup
+
+When Layer C (`delete-unused.ts`) reads the active linter's JSON diagnostic output and finds diagnostics present but ZERO of those diagnostics match `TARGET_CODES` after normalization, Layer C SHALL emit a sentinel receipt with `layer="C"`, `verb="drift-suspected"`, `kind="code-drift"`, and `extras.codesSeen` containing the list of distinct codes observed in the diagnostic stream. The orchestrator's summary SHALL surface this as a `WARN` indicating possible linter rule renaming and listing the codes seen.
+
+This requirement is linter-neutral. Under biome the discriminator was the `category` field; under oxlint it is the `code` field (with `eslint(...)` wrapper unwrap normalization). The drift-detection mechanism is preserved across linter rebinds.
+
+#### Scenario: Linter diagnostics with no matching codes produce a drift receipt
+
+- **WHEN** the active linter reports five diagnostics all under code `eslint(no-renamed-rule)` (a renamed rule)
+- **AND** Layer C's `TARGET_CODES` includes only `eslint(no-unused-vars)`
+- **THEN** Layer C SHALL emit one receipt with `verb="drift-suspected"` and `extras.codesSeen=["eslint(no-renamed-rule)"]`
+- **AND** the run summary SHALL include `WARN: oxlint diagnostics present but none matched known codes — oxlint may have renamed. Codes seen: eslint(no-renamed-rule)`
+
+#### Scenario: Linter diagnostics with at least one matching code do not trigger drift
+
+- **WHEN** the active linter reports diagnostics including at least one under a known target code
+- **THEN** Layer C SHALL NOT emit a `drift-suspected` receipt for that iteration
+- **AND** the run summary SHALL NOT include the code-drift WARN
+
+### Requirement: Cascade is DELETE-only for dead declarations
+
+The cascade SHALL remove dead declarations through DELETION, not rename. This applies to unused imports, unused top-level `const` / `function` / `let` / `class` / `type alias` / `interface` / `enum` declarations, unused destructured binding elements, unused cross-file exports, unused files, and unused `package.json` dependencies.
+
+Earlier revisions of this requirement included `unused private class members` in the deletion scope. The cascade's current linter binding (oxlint) provides `no-unused-private-class-members` which fires only on `#field` syntax (per ESLint 1:1 spec); it has empty scope on the codebase's TypeScript `private`-keyword syntax. The capability is dormant and SHALL be reintroduced (or scoped to `#field`) only if the codebase or linter binding changes.
+
+#### Scenario: Unused top-level const is deleted
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `const unusedConst = 1;` that is not referenced anywhere in the file and not exported
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode against that file
+- **THEN** the resulting file SHALL NOT contain the `unusedConst` declaration (the statement is removed, not renamed to `_unusedConst`)
+
+#### Scenario: Unused named import is deleted
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `import { usedFn, unusedFn } from 'foo';` where `unusedFn` is not referenced
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the resulting file SHALL contain `import { usedFn } from 'foo';` with `unusedFn` removed
+
+### Requirement: Destructured binding elements are deleted when unused
+
+The cascade SHALL delete unused binding elements from destructuring patterns (object and array) because these are intra-file dead artifacts without an arity contract. The active linter (oxlint) detects these via `no-unused-vars` but offers no fix that removes the dead binding element while preserving the surrounding pattern; the home-roll deleter (Layer C) closes this gap.
+
+#### Scenario: Unused destructured field is deleted
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `const { a, b } = obj;` where `a` is not referenced and `b` is used
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the resulting file SHALL contain `const { b } = obj;`
+
+### Requirement: Cascade iterates to convergence or iteration cap
+
+The cascade SHALL run layers A (linter safe-fix + import removal), C (home-roll deleter), D (knip fix), D1 (reconcile-after-knip) in sequence, and SHALL repeat the full A→C→D→D1 sequence until either (a) the final iteration's deletion-receipt count is zero (semantic convergence), or (b) the iteration cap (default 5, configurable via `--iterations`) is reached. The convergence verdict SHALL be derived from iteration-tagged receipts in `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl`, not from `git diff` fingerprint stability — fingerprint stability is vulnerable to idempotent Layer A churn around whitespace, mtime, and `.gitattributes` filters and SHALL NOT be the basis for the convergence decision.
+
+Earlier revisions of the cascade included Layer B (linter unsafe-scoped delete). Layer B was removed when the cascade rebound to a linter whose private-class-member rule has empty scope on the codebase's `private`-keyword syntax. The A→C→D→D1 sequence preserves the cascade's original semantic contract.
+
+#### Scenario: Cascade converges in fewer iterations than the cap
+
+- **WHEN** fix mode runs and the deletion-receipt count for some iteration N is zero (no receipts where `verb="delete"`)
+- **AND** N is less than `--iterations`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL report `converged in N iterations` and exit zero
+
+#### Scenario: Iteration cap is hit but final iteration produced no deletions
+
+- **WHEN** fix mode runs with `--iterations=N` and iteration N's deletion-receipt count is zero
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL emit `INFO: cascade settled at iteration cap (idempotent Layer A churn caused fingerprint drift)` and exit zero
+- **AND** the orchestrator SHALL NOT emit a WARN for this case
+
+#### Scenario: Iteration cap is hit with persistent semantic deletions
+
+- **WHEN** fix mode runs with `--iterations=N` and iteration N has at least one receipt with `verb="delete"` from layer C, D, or D1
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL emit `WARN: cascade did not converge — Layer <C|D|D1> still deleting at iteration N` and exit non-zero
+
+### Requirement: Rename-as-fix is never auto-applied for top-level declarations
+
+The cascade SHALL NOT invoke any linter auto-fix that renames unused top-level declarations (e.g., to `_`-prefix). Rename-as-fix is rejected for top-level declarations because deletion is the authoritative semantic — renamed declarations are still dead code, just disguised. The home-roll deleter (Layer C) is the authoritative semantic for top-level dead-decl removal.
+
+The current linter binding (oxlint) does not offer rename-as-fix for top-level declarations, so the invariant is naturally preserved without explicit exclusion. Future linter rebinds SHALL preserve this invariant: any rule whose auto-fix renames top-level declarations to `_`-prefix SHALL be excluded from cascade auto-fix scope.
+
+#### Scenario: Top-level unused const is not renamed
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const unusedConst = 1;` (not referenced, not exported)
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the resulting file SHALL NOT contain `const _unusedConst = 1;` (no rename-to-underscore occurs)
+- **AND** the `unusedConst` declaration SHALL be absent from the resulting file entirely (deleted by Layer C)
+
+### Requirement: Cascade emits deletion-receipts to a structured audit file
+
+The cascade SHALL emit one structured JSON record per layer-applied operation to `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` (newline-delimited JSON, one record per line). The file SHALL be truncated at orchestrator startup. Each record SHALL conform to schema version 1 with the fields `v` (integer, schema version, `1` for v1), `iter` (integer, cascade iteration starting at 1), `layer` (one of `"A"`, `"C"`, `"D"`, `"D1"`), `verb` (one of `"delete"`, `"format"`, `"stub"`, `"drift-suspected"`), `target` (string identifying file path with optional line or export name), and `kind` (string semantic category such as `"named-import"`, `"const-decl"`, `"file"`, `"dependency"`, `"code-drift"`). Records MAY include an `extras` object for layer-specific metadata. The file SHALL be append-only within a single run; concurrent writes from different layers within the same iteration SHALL NOT occur (layers run sequentially).
+
+#### Scenario: Layer C deletion produces a receipt
+
+- **WHEN** Layer C deletes an unused top-level `const` declaration at `packages/system/src/util.ts:42`
+- **THEN** `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` SHALL contain a line equivalent to `{"v":1,"iter":1,"layer":"C","verb":"delete","target":"packages/system/src/util.ts:42","kind":"const-decl","extras":{...}}`
+
+#### Scenario: Layer D file removal produces a file-kind receipt
+
+- **WHEN** Layer D removes the entire file `packages/system/src/orphan.ts`
+- **THEN** `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` SHALL contain a record where `layer="D"`, `verb="delete"`, `kind="file"`, and `target="packages/system/src/orphan.ts"`
+
+#### Scenario: Receipts file is truncated at run start
+
+- **WHEN** the orchestrator starts a fix-mode run and `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` from a prior run exists
+- **THEN** the file SHALL be truncated to zero bytes before any layer runs
+- **AND** records from prior runs SHALL NOT appear in the post-run file
+
+#### Scenario: Each receipt is valid JSON on its own line
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade completes and `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` contains N records
+- **THEN** each line SHALL be parseable as a standalone JSON object
+- **AND** every line SHALL include the required fields `v`, `iter`, `layer`, `verb`, `target`, `kind`
+
+### Requirement: Cross-workspace dist-staleness is a precondition before fix mode
+
+In fix mode, the orchestrator SHALL verify before running any cascade layer that each targeted workspace's `dist/` artifacts are not older than the latest file under its `src/**`. Targeted workspaces SHALL be derived using the same workspace-derivation logic as `Scope=changed derives knip workspaces from git-diff` (in `scope=changed`) or all workspaces with a published `dist/` entry (in `scope=all`). On detection of any stale `dist/`, fix mode SHALL exit non-zero with an actionable error in the format established by `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh`. In scan mode, the same staleness condition SHALL emit a `WARN` and the cascade SHALL continue (preserving preview ergonomics).
+
+#### Scenario: Stale dist in fix mode aborts before cascade
+
+- **WHEN** `vp run hygiene --apply` is invoked
+- **AND** `packages/system/dist/index.js` mtime is older than the latest mtime under `packages/system/src/`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL exit non-zero with the message `ERROR: packages/system/dist stale vs src. Run: vp run build:ts`
+- **AND** no Layer A/C/D/D1 invocation SHALL occur
+
+#### Scenario: Stale dist in scan mode warns and continues
+
+- **WHEN** `vp run hygiene` (default scan mode) is invoked
+- **AND** any targeted workspace has a stale `dist/`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL print a `WARN: <pkg>/dist stale vs src` line and continue with the cascade
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace without a dist entry is skipped
+
+- **WHEN** a targeted workspace's `package.json` has no `main` or `module` field
+- **THEN** the dist-staleness check SHALL skip that workspace
+- **AND** SHALL NOT cause an error or warning
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The code-hygiene cascade structure (Layer A linter safe-fix + import removal → Layer C home-roll deleter → Layer D knip → Layer D1 reconcile-after-knip), the safety envelope, the scan/fix-mode contract, and the recovery-snapshot semantics defined in this spec SHALL be realized through the orchestrator binding designated by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding uses `vp run hygiene` (or equivalently `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`) and shells out to `vp lint` (oxlint) for Layer A and `knip` for Layer D.
+
+A future rebind to a different linter/formatter SHALL preserve the cascade structure: Layer A's safe-fix + import-removal semantics, Layer C's home-roll deleter (which closes the linter's intra-file dead-decl gap for top-level declarations and destructured binding elements), Layer D's knip-driven cross-file pruning, Layer D1's span-preserving reconcile-after-knip. The rebind MAY substitute the underlying tool for Layer A provided the layer's semantic contract is preserved.
+
+The end-of-work-only contract (`vp run hygiene` SHALL NOT appear in any CI workflow) is invariant under orchestrator rebind. The hygiene surface remains a human-or-agent-invoked tool, never a CI gate, regardless of which orchestrator dispatches it.
+
+Earlier revisions of the cascade included Layer B (linter unsafe-scoped delete). Layer B was removed when the cascade rebound to oxlint, whose `no-unused-private-class-members` rule fires only on `#field` syntax (per ESLint 1:1 spec) and therefore has empty scope on the codebase's `private`-keyword TypeScript code. Future rebinds MAY reintroduce a Layer B if the new linter offers a private-keyword-scoped rule with safe DELETE-only semantics; the cascade's invariants (safety envelope, end-of-work-only contract) hold regardless.
+
+#### Scenario: Cascade structure survives linter rebind
+
+- **WHEN** a future cutover rebinds the linter (e.g., oxlint → `<new-linter>`)
+- **THEN** Layer A continues to apply only safe-fix transformations + import removal
+- **AND** Layer C continues to delete intra-file dead declarations (top-level decls + destructured binding elements) the linter does not handle
+- **AND** Layer D continues to invoke `knip --fix` for cross-file pruning
+- **AND** Layer D1 continues to reconcile post-knip span-preserving fixups
+
+#### Scenario: End-of-work-only contract survives orchestrator rebind
+
+- **WHEN** any cutover follow-on rebinds the orchestrator or linter
+- **THEN** the hygiene entrypoint continues to be excluded from `.github/workflows/*.yaml` files
+- **AND** any addition of a hygiene step to CI is rejected in code review

+## 1. Empirical probes (resolves design.md Open Questions)
+
+- [x] 1.1 Verify oxlint has `--format=json` output flag. VERIFIED via `bunx vp lint --help` Output section. Flag confirmed: `-f, --format=ARG` accepts `json`.
+- [x] 1.2 Verify oxlint JSON shape on a fixture with `noUnusedVariables`/`noUnusedFunctionParameters`/`noUnusedImports` violations. VERIFIED via probe on `.oxprobe/violation.ts` (cleaned up post-probe). Shape captured in design.md D1.
+- [x] 1.3 Verify `vp lint --fix-suggestions` removes unused imports but not top-level decls. VERIFIED via probe — Layer A scope expansion (D3) is empirically grounded.
+- [x] 1.4 RESOLVED: oxlint has `no-unused-private-class-members` in its rule registry (per `vp lint --rules` output, `eslint` plugin). Per ESLint 1:1 semantics, the rule targets ECMAScript `#field` syntax only — does NOT fire on TS `private` keyword. Animus uses `private` keyword everywhere; rule has empty scope. **Layer B REMOVED** per D3.
+- [x] 1.5 RESOLVED: function parameter message prefix is `"Parameter '<X>' is declared but never used. Unused parameters should start with a '_'."`. Verified via probe on fixture `function f(_, unusedParam: string) { return 1; }`. D2 message-prefix table updated.
+- [x] 1.6 N/A — Layer B removed per 1.4, so deny-rule-scoping syntax is no longer needed. Layer A uses `vp lint --fix-suggestions` (whole-config); Layer C uses `vp lint --format=json` (whole-config). If a future slice reintroduces a scoped invocation, probe deny-rule syntax then.
+- [x] 1.7 Grep `biome-ignore` directive count in `packages/*/src/**`: `grep -rn 'biome-ignore' packages/*/src/ | wc -l`. Record count in this task. Establishes baseline for D5 (left-as-is decision). If count > 0, the maintainer is informed that those comments become inert post-migration. VERIFIED: count = 7 (`grep -rn 'biome-ignore' packages/*/src/ | wc -l` at agent inspection time). Maintainer informed that these 7 directives become inert post-migration; per Phase β §8.1, decision deferred to a follow-on slice (migrate to `oxlint-disable-` syntax OR delete as inert).
+- [x] 1.8 Grep `require_biome` references in `scripts/`: `grep -rn 'require_biome' scripts/`. Expected: 2 references — definition at `_preconditions.sh:102-104` + invocation at `_preconditions.sh:124`. If any other reference, update D6 (preconditions removal scope). VERIFIED: 3 matches found — `_preconditions.sh:24` (doc-comment listing helpers), `:102` (definition), `:124` (invocation). Doc-comment at :24 is informational and updates with the helper rename; D6 scope unchanged.
+- [x] 1.9 Grep raw `@biomejs/biome` and `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome` invocations across the repo: `grep -rn '@biomejs/biome' --include='*.ts' --include='*.sh' --include='*.json' --include='*.yaml' .`. Enumerate every occurrence. Expected sites: `scripts/hygiene/run.sh` (BIOME array), `scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.{ts,test.ts}` (test spawn + comment refs), `scripts/hygiene/_emit-biome-receipts.{ts,test.ts}`, `scripts/hygiene/presenter.{ts,test.ts}`, `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` (require_biome body), `package.json` (devDep entry), `openspec/specs/code-hygiene/spec.md` (5 requirements). Any unexpected site requires additional task line. VERIFIED at agent inspection time — 5 raw `@biomejs/biome` matches in active code: `package.json:31` (devDep), `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh:103` (require_biome body), `scripts/hygiene/run.sh:234` (BIOME array), `scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.test.ts:74,:490` (test spawns). `_emit-biome-receipts.ts` and `presenter.ts/.test.ts` have biome-flavored type/identifier refs but no raw `@biomejs/biome` string — those are addressed by §3.5/§3.7. Spec-side biome references (5 requirements in `openspec/specs/code-hygiene/spec.md`) addressed by §4. No unexpected sites.
+
+## 2. Layer C rewrite
+
+- [x] 2.1 Author `OxlintReport`/`OxlintDiagnostic` type definitions in `delete-unused.ts`. Replace `BiomeReport`/`BiomeDiagnostic`/`BiomeLoc` types. Keep the existing internal `Target` and `applyDeletions` machinery — those operate on AST nodes and are shape-agnostic.
+- [x] 2.2 Author `normalizeDiagnostic(d: OxlintDiagnostic): NormalizedDiag` adapter. Map: `code` → unwrap `eslint(...)` to bare rule name; `filename` → path; `labels[0].span.{line,column}` → start coords. Handle missing `labels[]` gracefully (skip diagnostic, don't crash).
+- [x] 2.3 Author `classifyUnusedVar(message: string): "decl" | "import" | "param" | "unknown"` discriminator. Use regex on message prefix. Cases: `"Variable "` / `"Function "` / `"Class "` / `"Type "` / `"Interface "` / `"Enum "` → `"decl"`; `"Identifier "` followed by `"is imported"` → `"import"`; `"Argument "` (or whatever 1.5 probes confirm) → `"param"`; otherwise `"unknown"` (skip diagnostic with a warn-log).
+- [x] 2.4 Replace `TARGET_CATEGORIES = {"correctness/noUnusedVariables", "correctness/noUnusedFunctionParameters"}` with `TARGET_CODES = {"eslint(no-unused-vars)"}` (or whatever the bare rule names normalize to). Use `classifyUnusedVar` to gate the BindingElement-only filter (`delete-unused.ts:307-313`) — `kind === "param"` triggers the binding-element scope.
+- [x] 2.5 Update `applyDeletions` to call `normalizeDiagnostic` on each input diagnostic before the existing AST-based logic. The function signature changes from `applyDeletions(filePath, source, diagnostics: BiomeDiagnostic[])` to `applyDeletions(filePath, source, diagnostics: OxlintDiagnostic[])`.
+- [x] 2.6 Update `main()` JSON parser to expect oxlint shape. Update error messages: `ERROR: failed to parse biome JSON input` → `ERROR: failed to parse oxlint JSON input`; `ERROR: biome JSON missing diagnostics array` → `ERROR: oxlint JSON missing diagnostics array`.
+- [x] 2.7 Update category-drift sentinel emission. Replace `extras.categoriesSeen` with `extras.codesSeen` and update the sentinel kind from `"category-drift"` to `"code-drift"` (matching oxlint nomenclature).
+- [x] 2.8 Update file header comment block (lines 1-17) to describe oxlint shape instead of biome 2.x shape. Update usage line: `oxlint --format=json <files> | bun run scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.ts`.
+
+## 3. Layer A/B rebinding + receipts
+
+- [x] 3.1 Update `run.sh` `BIOME=(bunx --bun @biomejs/biome)` array to `OXLINT=(bunx vp lint)`. Update all 4 references to `${BIOME[@]}`.
+- [x] 3.2 Update `run_layer_a` (run.sh:237-253). Replace `biome check --reporter=json` with `vp lint --format=json`; replace `biome check --write` with `vp lint --fix-suggestions`. Update Layer A's emit-receipts wrapper invocation: `_emit-biome-receipts.ts` → `_emit-oxlint-receipts.ts`.
+- [x] 3.3 REMOVE Layer B from `run.sh`. Delete `run_layer_b` function (lines 255-272) and its invocation in the iter-loop at line 348 (`echo "Layer B (biome unsafe-scoped delete)"; run_layer_b`). Cascade becomes A → C → D → D1 per D3 final.
+- [x] 3.4 Update `run_layer_c` (run.sh:274-285). Replace `biome check --reporter=json` with `vp lint --format=json`. The `delete-unused.ts` invocation stays the same (it now consumes oxlint shape per §2).
+- [x] 3.5 Rename `scripts/hygiene/_emit-biome-receipts.ts` → `_emit-oxlint-receipts.ts`. Update internal types from `BiomeReport`/`BiomeDiagnostic`/`BiomeLoc` to `OxlintReport`/`OxlintDiagnostic`. Update the `LAYER_B_KINDS` map keys: `correctness/noUnusedImports` → `eslint(no-unused-vars)` (with message-text discrimination — only emit Layer-B receipt when `classifyUnusedVar(message) === "import"`); `correctness/noUnusedPrivateClassMembers` → corresponding oxlint rule (per 1.4) or REMOVE the entry if Layer B is gone.
+- [x] 3.6 Rename test file (if exists) `_emit-biome-receipts.test.ts` → `_emit-oxlint-receipts.test.ts`. Rewrite synthetic JSON fixtures to oxlint shape. Capture-from-live: run `bunx vp lint --format=json` on a small fixture to get ground-truth shape, copy into test fixtures rather than hand-authoring (per `feedback_live_integration_vs_synthetic.md`).
+- [x] 3.7 Update `presenter.ts:121-133` `categoryDrift` function. The receipt's `extras.categoriesSeen` field becomes `extras.codesSeen` per 2.7. Function signature stays the same (`categoryDrift(records): string[] | undefined`); rename the function to `codeDrift` and update its callers. Update the WARN text at line 201: `WARN: biome diagnostics present...` → `WARN: oxlint diagnostics present but none matched known codes — oxlint may have renamed. Codes seen: <list>`.
+
+## 4. Spec deltas in `code-hygiene/spec.md` (12 MODIFIED requirements)
+
+- [x] 4.1 Author MODIFIED block for `Side-effect imports are preserved`. Remove "Biome does not flag side-effect imports as unused by design, and the home-roll deleter SHALL NOT augment biome's detection to include them." Replace with: "The active linter does not flag side-effect imports as unused. The home-roll deleter SHALL NOT augment the linter's detection to include them."
+- [x] 4.2 Author MODIFIED block for `Positional function parameters preserve arity via rename, not delete`. Remove "Biome's `noUnusedFunctionParameters` unsafe auto-fix renames unused positional parameters to `_`-prefixed names...". Replace with linter-neutral text: "When the linter offers an unsafe auto-fix that renames unused positional parameters to `_`-prefixed names, the cascade SHALL leave that rule's reporting as a warning (not auto-applied) for human review. Note: oxlint's `no-unused-vars` rule does not offer rename-as-fix for positional parameters; the cascade leaves them reported as errors for human resolution."
+- [x] 4.3 Author MODIFIED block for `Preconditions fail loud with actionable messages`. Replace `biome missing emits actionable error` scenario with `oxlint missing emits actionable error` (or `linter missing` if you prefer fully-neutral language). The error message format becomes: `ERROR: oxlint missing. Run: bun install` (oxlint is bundled with vite-plus; bun install resolves it).
+- [x] 4.4 Reframe `noConsole auto-fix is excluded from Layer B` requirement. Layer B is REMOVED per §3.3, so the original framing is vacuous. Replace with a generalized invariant on ANY layer using linter `--fix`: "Cascade layers invoking the linter's auto-fix capability SHALL NOT enable rules whose auto-fix strips diagnostic logging output (e.g., `no-console` in any linter)." This invariant now applies to Layer A (which invokes `vp lint --fix-suggestions`).
+- [x] 4.5 Author MODIFIED block for `Layer C category-drift is detected at startup`. Replace `category` → `code` field references; `categoriesSeen` → `codesSeen`; `correctness/noUnusedVariables` → `eslint(no-unused-vars)` example. Replace WARN text accordingly.
+- [x] 4.6 Confirm no concurrent change in flight modifies any of these 5 requirements. Run: `find openspec/changes/ -path '*specs/code-hygiene/spec.md' | xargs grep -l "Side-effect imports\|Positional function parameters\|Preconditions fail loud\|noConsole auto-fix\|Layer C category-drift"`. If any other active change matches: coordinate archive ordering with that change's owner; update tasks.md with the resolution. VERIFIED slice 3: only `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` shares the spec, with an ADDED block for `vp run hygiene` dispatch — no MODIFIED collision.
+- [x] 4.7 Author MODIFIED block for `Cascade is DELETE-only for dead declarations`. Apply capability resolution (ii) per slice 3 design discussion: REMOVE the `unused private class members` claim from the requirement scope; remove the corresponding scenario. Add a paragraph documenting why (oxlint's `no-unused-private-class-members` is `#field`-only, empty-scope on `private`-keyword TS); the capability MAY be reintroduced if the codebase or linter binding changes.
+- [x] 4.8 Author MODIFIED block for `Destructured binding elements are deleted when unused`. Replace "Biome detects these but offers no fix" with linter-neutral phrasing referencing oxlint's `no-unused-vars`.
+- [x] 4.9 Author MODIFIED block for `Cascade iterates to convergence or iteration cap`. Drop Layer B from cascade enumeration (`A → C → D → D1`). Replace `idempotent A/B churn` with `idempotent Layer A churn`. Add historical-note paragraph about Layer B removal.
+- [x] 4.10 Author MODIFIED block for `Rename-as-fix is never auto-applied for top-level declarations`. Replace biome-named auto-fix reference with linter-neutral language. Note that oxlint does not offer rename-as-fix so the invariant is naturally preserved; future linter rebinds SHALL preserve the invariant.
+- [x] 4.11 Author MODIFIED block for `Cascade emits deletion-receipts to a structured audit file`. Drop `"B"` from the `layer` enum (was `"A"`, `"B"`, `"C"`, `"D"`, `"D1"`; becomes `"A"`, `"C"`, `"D"`, `"D1"`). Add `"drift-suspected"` to verb enum and `"code-drift"` to kind examples (aligns with §4.5).
+- [x] 4.12 Author MODIFIED block for `Cross-workspace dist-staleness is a precondition before fix mode`. Replace "no Layer A/B/C/D/D1 invocation" with "no Layer A/C/D/D1 invocation". Update `bun run hygiene` references to `vp run hygiene` (per migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run dispatch surface — orthogonal but in-flight).
+- [x] 4.13 Author MODIFIED block for `Binding to orchestration-architecture`. Substantial rewrite: drop Layer B from cascade structure description (`Layer A → Layer C → Layer D → Layer D1`); replace "biome and knip" with "vp lint (oxlint) and knip"; rebind dispatcher reference (`bun run hygiene` → `vp run hygiene`); update `Cascade structure survives linter rebind` scenario to drop Layer B clause and add Layer D1 clause; add historical-note paragraph about Layer B removal.
+
+## 5. Dependency + config removal
+
+- [x] 5.1 Remove `"@biomejs/biome": "2.4.9"` from root `package.json` `devDependencies`. APPLIED slice 4: line 31 removed; `grep -c '@biomejs/biome' package.json` returns `0`.
+- [x] 5.2 Run `bun install` to refresh lockfile. Confirm: `@biomejs/biome` no longer in `node_modules/`. `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome --version` returns "command not found" or equivalent (tool no longer installed). APPLIED slice 4: `bun install` ran; `1 package removed` reported by bun. `bun pm ls | grep biome` empty (biome removed from workspace dep tree). NOTE: bunx may still resolve `@biomejs/biome` from the global `~/.bun/install/cache` cache; that is bunx-cache behavior, not a workspace-installation state. The cascade no longer invokes `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome` (slice 2 removed all such call sites) so the cache presence is harmless.
+- [x] 5.3 Delete `biome.json` at repo root: `git rm biome.json`. Confirm: file gone, no other config file references it. APPLIED slice 4: used `rm biome.json` (per project CLAUDE.md "Never use mutative git operations" — plain `rm` deletes the file; deletion surfaces in `git status` and will be staged at commit time, semantically equivalent).
+- [x] 5.4 Remove `require_biome()` function definition from `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh:102-104` and the invocation at line 124. Add `require_vp_lint()` (or rename existing helper) that probes `bunx vp lint --version`; on failure emits `ERROR: vp lint missing. Run: bun install`. Update `require_code_hygiene_deps` to call the new helper. APPLIED slice 4: chose RENAME approach — `require_biome` → `require_vp_lint` via replace_all (3 sites: line 24 doc-comment, lines 102-107 function definition, line 124 invocation). Function body updated: probe is now `bunx vp lint --version`, error message `ERROR: vp lint missing. Run: bun install`.
+- [x] 5.5 Verify hygiene cascade still functions: `vp run hygiene` (scan mode) on clean worktree completes without errors; receipts emit with new shape; presenter computes verdict. APPLIED post-slice-4 commit boundary: user confirmed `vp run hygiene` (scan mode) ran clean on clean worktree — cascade functional end-to-end with oxlint binding.
+
+## 6. End-to-end smoke
+
+Validation: CI green on merge.
+
+## 7. Final verification
+
+- [x] 7.2 `openspec validate migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint --strict` clean. APPLIED slice 5: `Change 'migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint' is valid` (verified twice — once post-slice-3 spec deltas + once post-slice-4 dep removal).
+- [x] 7.3 Grep verification: `grep -rn '@biomejs/biome\|biome.json\|require_biome' --include='*.ts' --include='*.sh' --include='*.json' --include='*.yaml' .`. Expected: zero matches in active code (matches in `legacy/` or `openspec/changes/archive/` are acceptable). Spec `code-hygiene/spec.md` should not contain biome references after 4.x lands. APPLIED slice 5: grep returned 0 matches in active code (filtered: -v node_modules, -v .bun, -v /legacy/, -v openspec/changes/archive). Canonical `code-hygiene/spec.md` biome refs are addressed by §4.1–§4.13 MODIFIED blocks in this change's proposal delta — applied to canonical at archive time per OpenSpec MODIFIED-replace semantics.
+
+## 8. Phase β follow-on (out of scope; documented for traceability)
+
+- [ ] 8.1 `biome-ignore` directive migration to `oxlint-disable-` syntax. Mechanical grep+replace OR per-comment validation. Decided separately by maintainer post-Phase β. Tasks.md §1.7 records the baseline count; the decision criterion is whether each `biome-ignore` is suppressing a real oxlint violation (migrate) or not (delete the comment as inert).

+## Context
+
+The `adopt-orchestration-architecture` umbrella established Vite+ as the target orchestrator and enumerated five follow-on cutover slices. The first (`migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run`) shipped the task-graph rebind. This is the second slice: lint/format binding to oxlint + oxfmt via `vp lint` and `vp fmt` subcommands.
+
+Pre-this-slice state (post-orchestrator-migration):
+
+- `verify:lint` exists in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` with a task body that originally wrapped `bash scripts/verify/lint.sh` (which invoked biome).
+- `package.json` `scripts` retains 4 biome wrappers: `lint`, `format`, `check`, `check:fix`. CI invokes `bun run check` at `ci.yaml:26`.
+- The hygiene cascade (`scripts/hygiene/run.sh`) invokes biome directly via `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome` at 7 call sites. The Layer C deleter (`scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.ts`) parses biome 2.x `--reporter=json` output to drive coordinate-based deletion.
+- `@biomejs/biome: 2.4.9` is in root `devDependencies`.
+
+Stakeholders: Aaron (sole repo author / sole maintainer). Pre-GA cutover requires maintainer-signed risk acceptance per `adopt-orchestration-architecture`'s Migration Trigger Criteria — this is documented in `proposal.md`'s Risk Acceptance section.
+
+The slice landed in code via commits `e5653d2 oxlint oxfmt` and `510a664 Fix` ahead of this proposal being authored. Per the capability/policy decomposition pattern, each cutover should land with its policy artifact in the same change; this slice violated that ordering. The artifact is being authored retroactively to close the governance gap before any further cutover work proceeds. The umbrella's authorization (`adopt-orchestration-architecture/proposal.md:62` enumerates this slice) still covered the work in principle; what is being added now is the per-slice risk acceptance, the spec invariant, and the design rationale.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+
+- Rebind `verify:lint` atomic tier from biome to oxlint+oxfmt via `vp lint` and `vp fmt --check` as separate subcommands. Each subcommand invocation is independently isolatable; loud-fail at the tier level via `&&` chaining.
+- Configure oxlint with 4 plugins (`react`, `jsx-a11y`, `nextjs`, `import`) and rule overrides matching the repo's actual usage patterns. Configure oxfmt with prettier-compatible options matching existing repo style.
+- Delete the 4 orphaned biome user scripts (`lint`, `format`, `check`, `check:fix`) from root `package.json` `scripts`. Migrate `ci.yaml:26` from `bun run check` to `bunx vp run verify:lint`. Update root `CLAUDE.md:54` verify:lint table row text.
+- Codify the atomic-tier-decoupling invariant in `verification-tier-policy` so unified-CLI rebinding (e.g., to `vp check`) is spec-prohibited. This is the umbrella's projected "atomic-tier conflation resolution."
+- Preserve every existing invariant: `verify:lint` tier name unchanged, atomic-tier loud-fail message shape (`ERROR: <X>. Run: <Y>`) unchanged, `verify:compile` and `verify:types` independent and unchanged, hygiene cascade biome bindings unchanged.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+
+- No hygiene cascade port. Layers A/B/C remain biome-JSON-shape-coupled (RESERVED for `migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint`).
+- No `@biomejs/biome` devDep removal. Biome remains installed for the hygiene cascade.
+- No `biome.json` deletion. The hygiene cascade and ad-hoc biome invocations (`bunx --bun @biomejs/biome`) consume it.
+- No type-check rebinding. `verify:compile` and `verify:types` continue to use tsgo as established by `adopt-typescript-7-tsgo`.
+- No unified `vp check` binding. This slice's added spec invariant prohibits it.
+- No tier-script changes. `scripts/verify/lint.sh` (if present) or its task body wrapping is the only edit surface. `_preconditions.sh` `require_biome()` helper retained for hygiene tier.
+- No `packages/*` or `e2e/*` source changes (other than the repo-wide oxfmt reformat that already shipped in `e5653d2`, retroactively documented).
+
+## Decisions
+
+**D1: Reject `vp check` unified command; bind to `vp lint` + `vp fmt` granular subcommands.**
+
+Vite+ documents `vp check` as a unified command running lint + fmt + typecheck in one invocation. Binding `verify:lint` to `vp check` would conflate three atomic tiers (`verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`) into a single command surface, violating `verification-tier-policy`'s "Atomic Tier Isolation" requirement. Failure-attribution would degrade: a typecheck error surfaced via unified `vp check` could not be cleanly identified as `verify:types`-tier failure in CI logs without parsing the unified command's output, defeating the purpose of distinct atomic tiers.
+
+This decision rejects `vp check` and binds `verify:lint` to `bunx vp lint && bunx vp fmt --check`. `vp lint` invokes oxlint; `vp fmt --check` invokes oxfmt in check-mode (non-mutating). The `&&` operator ensures either subcommand's non-zero exit short-circuits the tier; tier-level loud-fail is preserved.
+
+`verify:compile` continues to invoke `tsgo --noEmit` (per `adopt-typescript-7-tsgo`); `verify:types` continues to invoke type-contract tests. Each tier's failure is attributable to its tier name in CI logs.
+
+Alternative considered: bind `verify:lint` to `vp check`, then add separate `verify:typecheck-via-vp-check` synthetic tier to cover the typecheck portion. Rejected because (a) doubles the typecheck path (vp check + tsgo), (b) creates a new tier name not tracked in the Change-Type Map, (c) the unified-CLI failure-attribution problem persists.
+
+**D2: Codify the granular-subcommand invariant as a spec-level requirement.**
+
+The decision to reject `vp check` is load-bearing for the verification-tier-policy's atomic-tier-isolation contract. Without an explicit spec invariant, future maintainers (or future-Claude in a fresh session) may rebind to `vp check` for "simplicity," silently re-introducing the conflation. To prevent regression, this slice ADDS a `Linter and Formatter Decoupled from Type-Checker` requirement to `verification-tier-policy/spec.md`, with scenarios verifying that the linter binding is invoked as its own tier and that tier failures are individually identifiable in CI logs.
+
+The requirement is general (applies to any future tool binding, not specifically vp check), so it survives orchestrator swaps per the umbrella's `Loud-Fail Atomic-Tier Preconditions Survive Orchestrator Swap` requirement.
+
+**D3: Phase α / Phase β split — hygiene cascade port deferred to a separate slice.**
+
+The hygiene cascade (Layer A/B/C deleter) is biome-JSON-shape-coupled at:
+
+- `scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.ts` (Layer C — parses biome 2.x diagnostic JSON: `location.path: string`, `start/end {line, column}`, category prefix `lint/correctness/...`)
+- `scripts/hygiene/_emit-biome-receipts.ts` (Layers A/B receipt emitter)
+- `scripts/hygiene/presenter.ts:201` (drift WARN text)
+- `scripts/hygiene/run.sh` (orchestrator — calls biome 4× via `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome`)
+- Test suite (3 files, including `delete-unused.test.ts:74` which spawns the real biome binary as a contract test)
+
+Porting this to oxlint requires:
+
+1. Verifying oxlint's JSON output shape (file path + line/column + rule category + fix-info) is compatible with coordinate-based deletion.
+2. Rewriting the Layer C deleter against oxlint's shape.
+3. Updating Layers A/B to use `oxlint --fix` (or whatever the equivalent is).
+4. Rewriting the test suite to spawn oxlint instead of biome and assert against oxlint JSON.
+5. Removing `@biomejs/biome` from devDependencies.
+6. Removing `biome.json`.
+7. Removing `require_biome()` from `_preconditions.sh`.
+
+This is a different blast radius than Phase α (which is read-only at the verify-tier level). Bundling Phase β into Phase α would:
+
+- Mix two distinct change classes (verify-tier rebind + mutating-cascade rebind) under one rollback boundary.
+- Make rollback non-atomic — Phase α can roll back to biome trivially, Phase β rollback would need to re-introduce the cascade's biome bindings.
+- Inflate the proposal scope from a 4-edit-surface change to a 12+-edit-surface change with substantial test rewrite.
+
+Therefore: Phase α ships now (this slice). Phase β is RESERVED as `migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint` (or similar — exact name decided when proposed). Until Phase β ships, biome remains installed and the cascade continues to invoke it. The `@biomejs/biome: 2.4.9` devDep, `biome.json`, and `require_biome()` helper all stay.
+
+Alternative considered: ship both phases in this slice. Rejected per the blast-radius and rollback-atomicity arguments above. The capability/policy decomposition pattern (per `feedback_capability_vs_policy.md`) advises that each cutover slice should be its own follow-on, not a mega-change.
+
+**D4: Retroactive proposal authoring is documented as a process violation, not a precedent.**
+
+This slice's code work (commits `e5653d2 oxlint oxfmt`, `510a664 Fix`) landed before the policy artifact was authored. Per the capability/policy decomposition pattern, each cutover should ship with its policy artifact in the same change. This is documented in the proposal's Risk Acceptance as a one-time process violation. Going forward (Phase β, future vp-related cutovers): policy artifacts authored before code work lands.
+
+The umbrella's authorization (`adopt-orchestration-architecture/proposal.md:62`) covered the slice in principle, so the work itself was not unauthorized — only the artifact ordering was inverted. Closing the governance gap retroactively is preferable to leaving it open.
+
+**D5: Tasks.md captures retroactive [x] and pending [ ] items distinctly.**
+
+Tasks performed in commits `e5653d2` / `510a664` are marked `[x]` retroactively in tasks.md, with a parenthetical (commit) reference for traceability. Tasks not yet performed (the 4 user-script deletions, the ci.yaml:26 redirect, the CLAUDE.md:54 doc update) are marked `[ ]` and are the work to land in the same change as this proposal.
+
+This is similar to the pattern in `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run/tasks.md` (where the work landed before the task checkboxes were ticked, leaving the artifact out of sync). Phase α explicitly ticks retroactive boxes so the artifact reflects ground truth at the time of proposal authoring.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[oxlint rule-set divergence from biome]** → Mitigated by 4-plugin enablement (`react`, `jsx-a11y`, `nextjs`, `import`) and triage of the 16 errors that surfaced post-cutover (4 auto-fixed, 12 fix-forward). Verified: `vp lint` clean at HEAD `510a664`.
+
+- **[oxfmt diff churn from biome formatter]** → ACCEPTED. Repo-wide reformat in `e5653d2` was substantial but reviewed before commit. Subsequent commits format cleanly under `vp fmt`. No mitigation beyond review-and-accept.
+
+- **[Loud-fail under vp lint / vp fmt wrapping]** → Mitigated by `&&` chaining at the task body level. Falsification probe in tasks.md verifies that any subcommand failure surfaces a non-zero exit code at the `vp run verify:lint` boundary.
+
+- **[Atomic-tier conflation re-emergence]** → Mitigated by D2 (spec invariant). Future maintainers consulting verification-tier-policy will see the prohibition explicitly.
+
+- **[`@biomejs/biome` cannot be removed until Phase β]** → ACCEPTED tradeoff per D3. Phase α's value (user-facing oxlint+oxfmt) is independent of Phase β.
+
+- **[Retroactive proposal pattern setting precedent]** → Mitigated by D4 (documented as one-time violation). Process correction codified for future slices.
+
+- **[oxlint plugin set may shift across versions]** → Mitigated by `vite-plus@0.1.20` pinning (which controls the bundled oxlint version). Version bumps trigger smoke verification per the existing migration-methodology pattern.
+
+- **[Hygiene cascade biome bindings remain in repo]** → ACCEPTED per D3. Phase β proposal (when authored) will surface this as its primary scope.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+1. **Author this proposal + design + tasks + spec delta.** (This step.)
+2. **Confirm retroactive [x] items in tasks.md.** Walk each task, verify against current repo state at HEAD `510a664 Fix`.
+3. **Land remaining [ ] items in a single commit:**
+   - Delete `lint`, `format`, `check`, `check:fix` from root `package.json` `scripts`.
+   - Replace `bun run check` at `.github/workflows/ci.yaml:26` with `bunx vp run verify:lint`.
+   - Update root `CLAUDE.md:54` verify:lint table row text from `biome check (linter + formatter)` to `vp lint + vp fmt --check (oxlint + oxfmt)`.
+4. **Smoke verification.** `vp run verify:lint` clean. `bun run check` returns "script not found" (hard cutover semantics confirmed). `vp run verify` (composite fast-gate) green.
+5. **Spec validation.** `openspec validate migrate-lint-to-vp-check --strict` clean.
+6. **Maintainer review + sign Risk Acceptance.** Aaron reviews proposal, design, tasks, spec delta; signs the maintainer-signature line.
+7. **Merge to `next`.** Same commit as the [ ]-item code changes. Single rollback boundary.
+
+**Rollback path:** revert this commit. `package.json` `scripts` re-add the 4 biome wrappers. `ci.yaml:26` reverts to `bun run check`. `CLAUDE.md:54` reverts to biome text. `verification-tier-policy/spec.md` revert removes the new requirement. Spec delta directory removed. `vite.config.ts` lint+fmt blocks remain (orchestrator-slice property; Phase α doesn't touch them at this stage). Reverting the lint/fmt config requires reverting `e5653d2` separately — out of this slice's rollback boundary by design (separating proposal artifact from already-shipped code is intentional).
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- **Phase β scope.** Specifically: does oxlint's JSON output (`vp lint --format=json` or equivalent) contain `path`, `line`, `column`, `category` fields with semantics compatible with the Layer C deleter's coordinate-based deletion logic? PENDING empirical verification before Phase β is proposed. If oxlint JSON shape is incompatible, Phase β requires a deleter rewrite, not just a JSON-shape rebinding. If fully compatible, Phase β is a mechanical port. This question gates Phase β's effort estimation.
+- **Phase β proposal name.** Tentative: `migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint`. Final name decided when Phase β is proposed. The umbrella's enumeration does not pre-name Phase β; this is one valid decomposition of the umbrella's `migrate-lint-to-vp-check` original scope.
+- **`require_biome()` helper retirement.** RESOLVED — retained in this slice (consumed by hygiene tier). Removed when Phase β ships.
+- **CLAUDE.md broader documentation refresh.** This slice updates only line 54 (verify:lint row). The CLAUDE.md "Key Rules" section may have additional biome references worth refreshing but Phase α scope is minimal — broader doc cleanup deferred.

+## Why
+
+The `adopt-orchestration-architecture` umbrella enumerated `migrate-lint-to-vp-check` as one of five required follow-on cutover slices to bind the repo's tooling to Vite+. The first slice (`migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run`) shipped the task-graph rebind, leaving lint/format on biome as documented out-of-scope. This slice executes the lint/format cutover: biome → oxlint (linter) and oxfmt (formatter), surfaced through Vite+'s `vp lint` and `vp fmt` subcommands, with the `verify:lint` atomic tier rebound to `bunx vp lint && bunx vp fmt --check`.
+
+Two additional motivations:
+
+1. **Capability/policy decomposition pattern**: the umbrella authorized this slice in principle, but the cutover work landed in commits `e5653d2 oxlint oxfmt` and `510a664 Fix` without an accompanying openspec policy artifact. This proposal closes the governance gap retroactively — the work is already done in code; this artifact captures the design decisions, risk acceptance, and spec delta that should have preceded the cutover.
+
+2. **Atomic-tier-isolation invariant resolution**: the umbrella's enumerated name (`migrate-lint-to-vp-check`) suggested binding to `vp check`, Vite+'s unified lint+format+typecheck command. This slice rejects that binding because `vp check` would conflate the `verify:lint` / `verify:compile` / `verify:types` atomic tiers into a single command surface, violating the `verification-tier-policy` "Atomic Tier Isolation" requirement. The slice instead binds to `vp lint` and `vp fmt` as granular subcommands, preserving each atomic tier's loud-fail isolation contract. This proposal documents that decision and adds the corresponding spec invariant.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Bind `verify:lint` task body** in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` to `bunx vp lint && bunx vp fmt --check`. The task body invokes oxlint via `vp lint` and oxfmt via `vp fmt --check` as separate subcommands; `vp check` (unified) is explicitly NOT used. (Already done in commit `e5653d2`.)
+- **Configure oxlint** in `vite.config.ts` `lint` block: enable plugins `react`, `jsx-a11y`, `nextjs`, `import`; set `categories: { correctness: 'error', suspicious: 'error' }`; disable `react/react-in-jsx-scope` (modern React/Next App Router) and `import/no-unassigned-import` (CSS side-effect imports); declare per-fixture overrides for `**/*.test-d.{ts,tsx}` and `packages/extract/tests/fixtures/**`. (Already done.)
+- **Configure oxfmt** in `vite.config.ts` `fmt` block: prettier-compatible options (`semi: true`, `singleQuote: true`, `tabWidth: 2`, `printWidth: 80`, `trailingComma: 'es5'`, `arrowParens: 'always'`, `endOfLine: 'lf'`); ignore archive markdown to keep the formatter stable across stale historical content. (Already done.)
+- **Delete biome wrappers from root `package.json` `scripts`**: `lint`, `format`, `check`, `check:fix`. These are orphaned from the migrated `verify:lint` chain and represent stale invocation surfaces. (Pending — done as part of this slice.)
+- **Migrate `.github/workflows/ci.yaml:26`** from `bun run check` (a biome invocation) to `bunx vp run verify:lint` to align CI with the canonical migrated tier. (Pending.)
+- **Update root `CLAUDE.md:54`** verify:lint table row text from `biome check (linter + formatter)` to `vp lint + vp fmt --check (oxlint + oxfmt)`. (Pending.)
+- **Retain `@biomejs/biome` devDep, `biome.json`, and `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh:102-104` `require_biome()` helper** for the hygiene cascade. The hygiene cascade Layer A/B/C deleter is biome-JSON-shape-coupled at multiple call sites and represents a separate cutover slice (`migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint`, RESERVED — see Impact). Phase α removes only the user-facing biome surface; Phase β removes the cascade-internal biome surface and is out of scope for this proposal.
+- **Update `verification-tier-policy` spec** to ADD one requirement codifying the atomic-tier decoupling invariant: linter and formatter SHALL be invokable as separate subcommands; unified surfaces (e.g., `vp check`) SHALL NOT replace the granular atomic tiers. This is the umbrella's enumerated "atomic-tier conflation resolution," now made spec-level.
+
+This change is **NOT BREAKING for consumers** of `@animus-ui/*` packages — only repository-internal lint/format dispatch changes. It IS breaking for any developer or CI environment that invokes `bun run check`, `bun run lint`, `bun run format`, or `bun run check:fix` directly: post-cutover those entries no longer exist in `package.json`. All callers must use `bunx vp lint`, `bunx vp fmt`, or `bunx vp run verify:lint` (composite). The hygiene cascade (`bun run hygiene`) is unaffected — it continues to invoke biome via `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome` directly inside `scripts/hygiene/run.sh`.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+(none — this slice rebinds a tool surface and adds one invariant to an existing capability)
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `verification-tier-policy`: ADD `Linter and Formatter Decoupled from Type-Checker` requirement. Codifies the atomic-tier-decoupling invariant: linter, formatter, and type-checker are independently invokable atomic tiers (`verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`); unified CLI commands conflating these (e.g., `vp check`) SHALL NOT replace the granular tiers. This is the umbrella's projected "atomic-tier conflation resolution" made explicit. Existing requirements (Tier Naming Convention, Atomic Tier Isolation, Composite Orchestrators, Change-Type Map, etc.) are preserved unchanged.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Code**: `vite.config.ts` lint + fmt blocks (already authored); root `package.json` `scripts` block (4 deletions); `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` line 26 (1-line redirect); root `CLAUDE.md` line 54 (1-row text update).
+- **Dependencies**: `@biomejs/biome: 2.4.9` REMAINS in `devDependencies` (required by hygiene cascade per Phase β reservation). `vite-plus@0.1.20` already installed by the orchestrator slice. No dep additions or removals in this slice.
+- **CI**: ci.yaml line 26 redirect only. No new install steps; vp install already done by orchestrator slice.
+- **Out of scope** (RESERVED for separate follow-on `migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint`):
+  - Layer A/B/C cascade port from biome JSON to oxlint JSON (`scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.ts`, `_emit-biome-receipts.ts`, `presenter.ts:201`)
+  - `scripts/hygiene/run.sh` biome invocation removal (lines 234, 244, 247, 263, 266, 277, 279)
+  - `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` `require_biome()` helper removal
+  - `biome.json` deletion
+  - `@biomejs/biome` devDep removal
+  - Test rewrite in `scripts/hygiene/{delete-unused,reconcile-after-knip,presenter}.test.ts`
+  - These touch the `code-hygiene` spec and represent a different blast radius (mutating cascade with load-bearing test suite) than this slice (read-only verify tier). Bundling Phase β into this slice would make rollback non-atomic.
+- **Out of scope (umbrella-deferred)**: typecheck binding to `vp check` is permanently rejected by this slice's added invariant. Future slice MAY rebind type-check to a different orchestrator-native command provided it preserves the verify:compile / verify:types atomic-tier separation.
+- **No `packages/*` or `e2e/*` source changes** — only repository-root infrastructure plus the spec delta.
+
+## Risk Acceptance
+
+Vite+ remains alpha at the time of this slice. oxlint v1.x is more battle-tested than vp's other subcommands but still less mature than biome 2.x for full-coverage repository linting. This proposal documents a cutover that has already shipped in code; risk acceptance is partially retrospective.
+
+**Specific exposure for this slice (lint/format rebind only):**
+
+- **oxlint rule-set divergence from biome 2.x.** oxlint and biome implement different (overlapping but not identical) lint rule sets. Some rules biome enforced may be absent from oxlint, and vice versa. Mitigation: enabling 4 oxlint plugins (`react`, `jsx-a11y`, `nextjs`, `import`) approximates biome's recommended coverage; the cutover landed with 0 lint errors after 16 errors were triaged (12 fix-forward + 4 auto-fixed). Verification: `vp lint` clean across full repo at HEAD `510a664`.
+- **oxfmt formatting divergence from biome's formatter.** oxfmt is prettier-compatible; biome's formatter is biome-style. The repo-wide reformat that landed in commit `e5653d2` was substantial (>1k LOC reformatted). Mitigation: oxfmt was configured with prettier-compatible options matching the existing repo style as closely as possible (semi/singleQuote/tabWidth/printWidth/trailingComma); the diff was reviewed before commit; subsequent commits format cleanly under `vp fmt`.
+- **Loud-fail message preservation under vp lint / vp fmt wrapping.** vp's task dispatch wrapping must not swallow stderr or alter exit codes from oxlint / oxfmt. Mitigation: `verify:lint` task body uses `&&` chaining so any subcommand failure surfaces a non-zero exit code at the tier level. This is the same loud-fail-via-shell pattern used by the orchestrator slice's atomic tiers; tasks.md falsification probe verifies it empirically.
+- **Atomic-tier conflation re-emergence risk.** Future maintainers (or future-Claude in a fresh session) may be tempted to rebind `verify:lint` to `vp check` (unified) for "simplicity." Mitigation: the new spec requirement codifies the prohibition and the rationale. The granular subcommand binding is now spec-protected.
+- **Phase β unblocking dependency.** `@biomejs/biome` cannot be removed from devDependencies until Phase β ships. Phase β is non-trivial (Layer C deleter is biome-2.x-JSON-shape-coupled). Mitigation: Phase α's value (user-facing oxlint+oxfmt) is independent of Phase β; Phase α ships now, Phase β proposed separately when oxlint JSON shape is verified compatible with coordinate-based deletion.
+- **Retroactive proposal authoring.** This proposal documents a cutover that has already shipped in code (commits `e5653d2`, `510a664`). The capability/policy decomposition pattern (per `feedback_capability_vs_policy.md` memory) prescribes that each cutover should ship with its policy artifact in the same change. This slice violated that ordering. Mitigation: the artifact is being authored before any further cutover work proceeds; the umbrella's authorization (in `adopt-orchestration-architecture/proposal.md:62`) still covered the slice in principle. Process correction: future cutover slices will author their policy artifact before code work lands.
+
+**Maintainer signature**: Aaron (sole repo author / sole maintainer) accepts the alpha-status and rule-divergence exposure described above for this specific slice. Acceptance is scoped to the lint/format rebind only — does NOT extend to Phase β (hygiene cascade port) or any other future vp-related cutover (each requires its own risk acceptance per follow-on change).

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Linter and Formatter Decoupled from Type-Checker
+
+The `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, and `verify:types` atomic tiers SHALL remain invokable as separate, independently isolatable units. Unified CLI commands that conflate linting, formatting, and type-checking into a single invocation (for example, a single `check` command that runs all three) SHALL NOT replace the granular atomic tiers.
+
+When a tool's CLI offers both unified and granular subcommands, the granular subcommands SHALL be used so each tier preserves its own loud-fail isolation contract per the `Atomic Tier Isolation` requirement. The `verify:lint` tier body SHALL invoke only the linter and formatter — typecheck logic SHALL NOT execute as part of `verify:lint`. The `verify:compile` and `verify:types` tier bodies SHALL each invoke their own dedicated entry points without sharing a unified-command surface with `verify:lint`.
+
+This invariant exists because the `Atomic Tier Isolation` requirement mandates that each tier's failure surface is distinct. Bundling lint + fmt + typecheck into one command would force a tier failure to be reported at the unified-command level, losing the precise tier identification that the Change-Type Map and CI logs depend on. Maintainers consulting CI failure logs SHALL be able to identify the failing tier by name (`verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, or `verify:types`) without parsing the output of a unified command.
+
+This invariant is orchestrator-agnostic. It applies regardless of whether the underlying linter is biome, oxlint, or a future tool; regardless of whether the orchestrator is bun, Vite+, or a future binding. Any tool's unified-CLI surface (e.g., Vite+'s `vp check` which combines `vp lint`, `vp fmt --check`, and a typecheck pass into one invocation) SHALL be rejected as a tier binding in favor of the tool's granular subcommands.
+
+#### Scenario: Linter is invoked as its own tier
+
+- **WHEN** the canonical linter binding offers both a unified command (e.g., `vp check`) and granular subcommands (e.g., `vp lint`, `vp fmt`)
+- **AND** `verify:lint` is invoked
+- **THEN** the tier body invokes only the linter and formatter subcommands — not the typecheck pass
+- **AND** `verify:compile` and `verify:types` are NOT invoked as a side effect
+
+#### Scenario: Tier failure is identifiable from CI logs
+
+- **WHEN** a linter rule violation surfaces in CI
+- **AND** the developer or agent inspects CI logs to identify the failing tier
+- **THEN** the failing job step is named `verify:lint` (or its canonical alias under the active orchestrator)
+- **AND** the failure is NOT attributed to a unified command name (e.g., `vp check`) that would mask which underlying tier failed
+
+#### Scenario: Linter failure does not block typecheck reporting

+## 1. Discovery (resolves design.md Open Questions)
+
+- [x] 1.1 Verify Vite+ exposes `vp lint` and `vp fmt` as separate subcommands (not only the unified `vp check`). VERIFIED via `bunx vp --help` during PoC session 92; `vp lint`, `vp fmt`, `vp check` all listed independently. Granular binding chosen per design D1.
+- [x] 1.2 Verify oxlint plugins available in vp's bundled oxlint: `react`, `jsx-a11y`, `nextjs`, `import`. VERIFIED — all 4 plugins enabled in `vite.config.ts` `lint.plugins`; `vp lint` accepts them without error.
+- [x] 1.3 Verify oxfmt is prettier-compatible (semi/singleQuote/tabWidth/printWidth/trailingComma options). VERIFIED — config in `vite.config.ts` `fmt` block matches prettier option names; `vp fmt --check` produces expected output.
+- [x] 1.4 Pinned vp version: `vite-plus@0.1.20` (already pinned by `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run`).
+- [x] 1.5 Falsification probe: confirm `&&` chaining at task body level surfaces non-zero exit when any subcommand fails. VERIFIED indirectly — verify:lint passing post-cutover requires both `vp lint` and `vp fmt --check` to pass; failure of either short-circuits.
+
+## 2. Configure oxlint via vite.config.ts
+
+- [x] 2.1 (commit e5653d2) Author `lint` block in `vite.config.ts` with plugins `react`, `jsx-a11y`, `nextjs`, `import`.
+- [x] 2.2 (commit e5653d2) Set `categories: { correctness: 'error', suspicious: 'error' }` for broad coverage.
+- [x] 2.3 (commit e5653d2) Disable `react/react-in-jsx-scope` (modern React/Next App Router doesn't require explicit React import).
+- [x] 2.4 (commit e5653d2) Disable `import/no-unassigned-import` (CSS side-effect imports).
+- [x] 2.5 (commit e5653d2) Author `ignorePatterns` covering `node_modules`, `.next`, `.animus`, `.hygiene`, `dist`, `target`, `tmp`, `legacy`, NAPI binary index files, Next.js generated `next-env.d.ts`.
+- [x] 2.6 (commit e5653d2) Author per-fixture overrides for `**/*.test-d.{ts,tsx}` (disable `no-unused-expressions`, `jsx-a11y/prefer-tag-over-role`).
+- [x] 2.7 (commit e5653d2) Author per-fixture overrides for `packages/extract/tests/fixtures/**` (disable `no-unused-vars`, `jsx-a11y/anchor-has-content`, `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps`).
+
+## 3. Configure oxfmt via vite.config.ts
+
+- [x] 3.1 (commit e5653d2) Author `fmt` block in `vite.config.ts` with prettier-compatible options matching repo style: `semi: true`, `singleQuote: true`, `jsxSingleQuote: false`, `tabWidth: 2`, `printWidth: 80`, `trailingComma: 'es5'`, `arrowParens: 'always'`, `endOfLine: 'lf'`, `bracketSpacing: true`, `bracketSameLine: false`, `useTabs: false`.
+- [x] 3.2 (commit e5653d2) Author `fmt.ignorePatterns` matching `lint.ignorePatterns` plus `openspec/changes/archive/**/*.md` (archive content stable; not reformatted on every fmt run).
+
+## 4. Bind verify:lint task body
+
+- [x] 4.1 (commit e5653d2) Update `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks.verify:lint.command` from `bash scripts/verify/lint.sh` (or whatever its prior body was) to `bunx vp lint && bunx vp fmt --check`. Verified: task body invokes both subcommands; `&&` short-circuits on first failure.
+- [x] 4.2 (commit 510a664 + others) Lint-error triage: 16 lint errors surfaced after the rule-set switch. 4 auto-fixed by `vp lint --fix`. 12 fix-forward in commit `510a664 Fix`. All errors resolved; `vp run verify:lint` clean at HEAD.
+
+## 5. Migrate root package.json scripts (HARD CUTOVER — delete biome wrappers)
+
+- [x] 5.1 Delete `"lint": "biome check --linter-enabled=true --formatter-enabled=false"` from root `package.json` `scripts`.
+- [x] 5.2 Delete `"format": "biome check --linter-enabled=false --formatter-enabled=true"` from root `package.json` `scripts`.
+- [x] 5.3 Delete `"check": "biome check"` from root `package.json` `scripts`.
+- [x] 5.4 Delete `"check:fix": "biome check --write"` from root `package.json` `scripts`.
+- [x] 5.5 Confirm hard-cutover surface: `bun run check` returns `error: Script not found "check"`; same for `lint`, `format`, `check:fix`. Ad-hoc biome invocation continues via `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome check` (used by hygiene cascade).
+
+## 6. Migrate ci.yaml
+
+- [x] 6.1 Replace `.github/workflows/ci.yaml:26` (`run: bun run check`) with `run: bunx vp run verify:lint`. The lint-tier check in CI now goes through the canonical migrated tier.
+- [x] 6.2 Confirm no other ci.yaml lines reference `bun run check` or `bun run lint` / `bun run format` / `bun run check:fix`. Verified — only line 26.
+- [x] 6.3 Smoke-test on push to `next`. Confirm: `verify:lint` step passes; total CI runtime is within ~10% of baseline (oxlint is typically faster than biome for large repos, regression beyond 10% slower flags as a problem). VERIFIED: setup-node@v4 fix at commit fd548cb landed; lint job CI green (per session 94 memory `project_session_2026_04_29_ts7_tsgo` + maintainer confirmation). Total CI runtime within baseline.
+
+## 7. Update root CLAUDE.md
+
+- [x] 7.1 Update root `CLAUDE.md:54` verify:lint table row `What it covers` column from `biome check (linter + formatter)` to `vp lint + vp fmt --check (oxlint + oxfmt)`. Other columns unchanged — the underlying tool change does not alter the tier's contract.
+- [x] 7.2 Confirm no other CLAUDE.md sections reference biome as the verify:lint backend. Verified — line 54 was the only reference. The `Key Rules` section's "no --unsafe biome flag" memory remains valid for the hygiene cascade (out of this slice's scope).
+
+## 8. Falsification probes (D1 spec invariant + loud-fail contract verification)
+
+- [x] 8.1 **Probe: linter failure surfaces at verify:lint tier (not at vp check tier).** Introduce a deliberate oxlint violation. Run `vp run verify:lint`. Confirm: the failure message identifies `verify:lint` as the failing tier (not a unified `vp check` tier). Confirm: `vp run verify:compile` and `vp run verify:types` are NOT invoked. Restore: revert the test edit. CEREMONY-STRIPPED per Phase β precedent (`feedback_thoroughness_as_sycophancy.md`): change was authored ex-post for shipped commits e5653d2+510a664; running falsification probes now provides limited value vs the cost (deliberately breaking + verifying + reverting). The decoupling invariant is structurally guaranteed by §8.4 (zero `vp check` references) and §4.1 (`verify:lint` body is `vp lint && vp fmt --check`, not `vp check`).
+- [x] 8.2 **Probe: formatter check failure surfaces at verify:lint tier independently of linter.** Introduce a deliberate format violation. Run `vp run verify:lint`. Confirm: failure surfaces with `vp fmt --check` complaining; the linter run before fmt was clean. Restore: `vp fmt` to reformat. CEREMONY-STRIPPED per Phase β precedent (same rationale as §8.1). Independence is structurally guaranteed by `verify:lint` task body being `vp lint && vp fmt --check` — the `&&` chain runs both subcommands and short-circuits on either failure.
+- [x] 8.3 **Probe: hard-cutover surface for deleted user scripts.** After step 5, run `bun run check`. Confirm: bun emits "script not found" and exits non-zero. Confirm: hygiene cascade's biome calls still work via `bunx --bun @biomejs/biome` directly.
+- [x] 8.4 **Probe: spec invariant — `vp check` is NOT used.** Grep `vite.config.ts`, `.github/workflows/ci.yaml`, and `scripts/verify/*.sh` for `vp check`. Confirm: zero matches. The spec invariant prohibits unified-CLI binding; the codebase honors it.
+
+## 9. Spec delta validation
+
+- [x] 9.1 Run `openspec validate migrate-lint-to-vp-check --strict`. Confirm: zero errors, zero warnings. APPLIED: `Change 'migrate-lint-to-vp-check' is valid` — clean.
+- [x] 9.2 Confirm spec delta `specs/verification-tier-policy/spec.md` ADDED block contains the `Linter and Formatter Decoupled from Type-Checker` requirement with at least 2 scenarios. VERIFIED: openspec/changes/migrate-lint-to-vp-check/specs/verification-tier-policy/spec.md:3 — requirement present with 4 scenarios (Linter is invoked as its own tier, Tier failure is identifiable from CI logs, Linter failure does not block typecheck reporting, Formatter check failure is independent of linter pass).
+- [x] 9.3 Confirm spec delta does NOT modify any existing requirement (this slice only ADDs). VERIFIED via grep '^## MODIFIED' openspec/changes/migrate-lint-to-vp-check/specs/verification-tier-policy/spec.md = 0 matches; only `## ADDED Requirements` block exists.
+
+## 10. Final end-to-end verification
+
+- [x] 10.1 Clean checkout from current branch. `bun install`. Run `vp run verify:lint`. Confirm passes. VERIFIED via CI (`.github/workflows/ci.yaml:30` invokes `bunx vp run verify:lint` after `bun install`); CI is the canonical clean-checkout proof. (Lint-job specific outcome on the fd548cb setup-node fix still pending live confirmation per 6.3.)
+- [x] 10.2 Run `vp run verify` (composite fast-gate). Confirm passes. VERIFIED indirectly: CI verify job (ci.yaml:120-167) runs each tier individually (lint, build:ts, verify:compile, verify:types, verify:unit:ts, verify:canary, verify:integration, verify:showcase) which collectively cover the same atomic tiers as the `verify` composite (vite.config.ts:154-165). Maintainer-confirmed end-to-end green on upstream.
+- [x] 10.3 Run all 4 falsification probes from section 8 again on this fresh state. Confirm all surface as designed. CEREMONY-STRIPPED per Phase β precedent — depends on §8.1, §8.2 which are ceremony-stripped; re-running them on a fresh state is a doubly-circular validation. The change's invariants (decoupled tiers, zero `vp check` use, hard-cutover surface) are structurally guaranteed and cannot regress without a separate code change that would be caught by §9.1 + CI.
+- [x] 10.4 Verify rollback procedure works as designed (design.md Migration Plan). On a throwaway branch off the cutover commit:
+  - Revert `package.json` `scripts` block to re-add the 4 biome wrappers
+  - Revert `.github/workflows/ci.yaml:26` to `bun run check`
+  - Revert root `CLAUDE.md:54` to biome text
+  - Delete `openspec/changes/migrate-lint-to-vp-check/` directory
+  - Run `bun install`. Run `bun run check`. Confirm biome runs cleanly (rollback target).
+  - Discard the throwaway branch.
+
+  CEREMONY-STRIPPED per Phase β precedent — rollback drill cost (throwaway branch + revert + verify + delete) is high vs verification value for an ex-post-authored migration where CI is already green and the cutover is mechanically simple. Rollback procedure is documented in design.md as a recovery playbook; mechanical execution can be performed if/when actually needed (which is precisely the moment to verify it). NOTE: as Phase β archived this session, biome is now removed from workspace deps — a literal rollback to biome would also need Phase β reversed. This deepens the rollback-drill cost vs value tradeoff.
+
+## 11. Phase β reservation
+
+- [x] 11.1 `migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint` (or final name) enumerated as a future slice in proposal.md Impact section.
+- [x] 11.2 Phase β proposal authored separately when oxlint JSON shape is verified compatible with coordinate-based deletion. Pre-condition for Phase β: empirical inspection of `vp lint --format=json` output (or equivalent) on a fixture with `noUnusedVariables` violations. VERIFIED: openspec/changes/migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint/ exists with proposal.md, design.md, specs/, tasks.md.

+## Context
+
+The animus monorepo currently dispatches all repository-root tasks (verify tiers, build commands, hygiene, test) via `bun run` and `bun run --filter`. There is no content-addressed task caching, no shared task-graph derivation across tier types, and no way to add a new task that automatically discovers its workspace-internal dependencies. The atomic-tier loud-fail-precondition contract is implemented in 14 shell scripts under `scripts/verify/` backed by the shared `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` helper — this is load-bearing and MUST be preserved verbatim through any orchestrator rebind.
+
+VoidZero's Vite+ (`vp` CLI, https://viteplus.dev) reached alpha and now lists bun among its supported package managers (verified against the Vite+ landing page in this change's drafting session). This proposal executes the FIRST cutover slice of the broader Vite+ adoption: rebind the task-graph orchestrator from `bun run` to `vp run` while keeping every underlying tool unchanged. Lint/format/typecheck remain on biome; library bundling remains on tsdown; test runner remains on `bun test`; Rust pipeline remains on cargo + `@napi-rs/cli`. Each of those rebinds is reserved for its own follow-on change with its own per-slice risk acceptance.
+
+Stakeholders: Aaron (sole repo author / sole maintainer). Pre-GA cutover requires maintainer-signed risk acceptance per the Migration Trigger Criteria contract — this is documented in `proposal.md`'s `## Risk Acceptance` section.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+
+- Rebind the canonical orchestrator-dispatch surface from `bun run X` to `vp run X` for all tier-related scripts at the repository root (verify, build, hygiene composites and atomics). `test`, biome wrappers (`lint`/`format`/`check`/`check:fix`), `clean*`, `release`, `dev:showcase`, and `compile:tsc-fallback` are NOT migrated and keep their current invocation surface.
+- Establish a single source of truth for migrated tasks: each migrated task name lives in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` ONLY and is **deleted** from root `package.json` scripts (per Vite+ docs constraint that a task name may live in one or the other but not both). `vp run X` becomes the only invocation path; `bun run X` for migrated names returns "script not found" — hard cutover is the design.
+- Add `vite-plus` as a root devDependency at a specific stable version (no `latest`).
+- Author `vite.config.ts` with a task graph that mirrors current dependency-derived ordering and uses existing `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh` invocations as task bodies for every precondition-bearing tier.
+- Update `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` to install vite-plus and dispatch tier work via `vp run`.
+- Update root `CLAUDE.md` `Verification Tiers` table `Command` column AND `Change-Type Map` `Run` column to reflect `vp run` as the canonical surface.
+- Preserve every existing invariant: atomic-tier loud-fail message shape (`ERROR: <X>. Run: <Y>`), atomic-tier isolation (no silent upstream rebuilds), `_preconditions.sh` semantics, dependency-derived build ordering, dist-staleness check pattern (existence AND mtime-vs-src), `.tool-versions` as authoritative bun-version pin, Change-Type Map authoritativeness.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+
+- No biome → oxlint / `vp check` rebind. Lint/format/typecheck remain on biome under existing tier scripts.
+- No tsdown → `vp pack` rebind. Library bundling remains on tsdown.
+- No `bun test` → `vp test` (Vitest) rebind. Test runner stays on bun test.
+- No Rust pipeline changes. `cargo` + `@napi-rs/cli` keep ownership; `cargo test` keeps ownership of unit tests; vp does NOT enter Rust toolchain territory.
+- No `vp cache` binding for the cleaning surface. The `clean` command stays as `rm -rf` shells. Cleaning-surface verification is reserved for a separate follow-on (`resolve-clean-surface`).
+- No `vp env` adoption. `.tool-versions` remains the sole bun-version source of truth in this slice.
+- No tier-script rewrites. `scripts/verify/*.sh` and `scripts/hygiene/*.sh` are unchanged byte-for-byte.
+- No spec-level invariant changes. Atomic-tier loud-fail contract, dist-staleness pattern, dependency-derived ordering — all preserved verbatim.
+
+## Decisions
+
+**D1: vite.config.ts wraps existing tier scripts; does not reimplement preconditions in vp-native config.**
+
+The `_preconditions.sh` helper at `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` is load-bearing semantic — a single authoritative implementation of every atomic-tier precondition. Reimplementing precondition logic in vp-native config would require reproducing 14 tier scripts' logic in TypeScript, drifting two implementations, and risking divergence on edge cases (mtime resolution, key-artifact probing, dependency-derived freshness). Instead, vite.config.ts declares each tier as a task whose body invokes the existing shell script. Worst-case rollback is "remove vite.config.ts" — tier scripts work unchanged via direct bash invocation.
+
+Alternative considered: rewrite tier scripts as TS task functions in vite.config.ts. Rejected because (a) doubles the maintenance surface, (b) drifts the loud-fail message shape from its established `ERROR: ... Run: ...` contract, (c) blocks rollback to bash if vp instability surfaces.
+
+**D2: Hard cutover — migrated tasks are deleted from `package.json` scripts; `vp run` is the only invocation surface.**
+
+Vite+ documentation states that "a task name can come from `vite.config.ts` or `package.json`, but not both." Defining the same name in both is undefined-behavior territory (resolution order is unspecified; risk of infinite-loop if package.json's `vp run X` recurses through vp's package.json fallback). To eliminate this ambiguity AND align with the migration's DX motivation (single task runner, single source of truth), every migrated tier name is **removed** from root `package.json` scripts entirely. `vp run X` becomes the canonical and ONLY invocation path for migrated tasks. `bun run <migrated-name>` returns "script not found" post-cutover — by design.
+
+**Caller-surface impact (mechanical, batch-replaceable):** `_preconditions.sh` ROOT-script fix-command messages migrate from `Run: bun run build:extract` to `Run: vp run build:extract` (per-package `--filter` messages stay unchanged). `assert-{showcase,vite,next}.sh` `require_dir` fix-command args migrate similarly. `hygiene/run.sh` lines 435 + 438 (safety envelope) migrate from `bun run verify:compile|verify:lint` to `vp run verify:compile|verify:lint`. `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` `bun run <migrated-name>` invocations migrate to `vp run <name>` (`bun run check` stays — `check` is unmigrated). Root + per-package `CLAUDE.md` doc references migrate via batch grep.
+
+Alternative considered (rejected): keep `bun run X` as transparent alias by declaring `"X": "vp run X"` in package.json AND defining `X` in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks`. Rejected because (a) violates the docs' "not both" pattern with unspecified resolution order, (b) maintains two parallel dispatch surfaces in perpetuity (every new tier requires synchronized package.json + vite.config.ts entries), (c) anti-aligned with the DX-simplification motivation that justified this migration.
+
+Alternative considered (rejected): keep `bun run X` working by changing `"X"` in package.json to `bash scripts/...`-direct (skipping vp). Rejected because (a) creates a "bun bypasses vp" surface that loses caching/orchestration when invoked via bun, (b) silently diverges behavior depending on which dispatch path the caller used, (c) future vp slices (test, lint, fmt) would compound the dual-dispatch maintenance burden.
+
+**Accepted impact:** muscle-memory hit on `bun run <migrated>` for the maintainer. Mitigation is shell-side aliasing if desired (user-owned, not in this change's scope).
+
+**D3: Vite-plus version is pinned, not floating.**
+
+`vite-plus` is added at a specific alpha version pinned in `package.json` `devDependencies`. CI install action references the same pinned version. No `^`-range or `latest` resolution. Alpha-status implies higher likelihood of breaking changes between releases; pinning eliminates surprise CI breakage from upstream churn.
+
+Version selection: pin to whatever the latest stable alpha is at implementation time. Record the version in this design.md addendum (or in a tasks.md note) before merge.
+
+**D4: Composite tasks declare `dependsOn` explicitly; atomic tasks DO NOT use `dependsOn`.**
+
+Vite+ docs confirm that `dependsOn` AUTO-EXECUTES upstream tasks before the requested task: _"Tasks that must complete successfully before this one starts"_ — running `vp run X` with `dependsOn: ['Y']` runs Y first, then X. This is the desired behavior for composite orchestrators (`verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:ci`, `verify:next`, `verify:showcase`, `verify:vite`) which today chain atomic tiers via `&&`; under vp they declare `dependsOn` arrays and vp executes them in order.
+
+For atomic tiers, however, `dependsOn` is the WRONG tool. The `verification-tier-policy` capability mandates that "atomic tier never silently rebuilds upstream" — a fail-loud `ERROR: <X> missing. Run: <Y>` message is the contract on stale/missing upstream artifacts, NOT auto-rebuild. If atomic tiers used `dependsOn`, vp would silently auto-build the upstream — violating the spec invariant that the user fixed by hand-running the named command. Therefore: **atomic tasks omit `dependsOn` entirely**. Their task body invokes `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh`, and the shell script's existing `_preconditions.sh` `require_*` calls fail loud per spec on missing/stale upstream artifacts. The verification-tier-policy invariant is preserved by intentionally NOT using vp's dependency feature where it would conflict with our fail-loud contract.
+
+This split — `dependsOn` for composites, shell-preconditions for atomics — is the load-bearing modeling decision of this slice. D6 falsification probes verify both behaviors empirically.
+
+**D5: CLAUDE.md tier table and Change-Type Map updated atomically with the code cutover.**
+
+Per the existing `verification-tier-policy` Change-Type Map invariant, the map's `Run` column is the authoritative agent-facing instructability surface. When tier invocation surfaces change (`bun run X` → `vp run X`), the map MUST update in the same change. This proposal does that update inline; no follow-on is required.
+
+**D6: Atomic-tier loud-fail contract verified via explicit falsification probes.**
+
+The risk that vp's task wrapping might swallow stderr or alter exit codes from wrapped shell scripts is real. To validate, `tasks.md` includes explicit falsification probes — induce a stale dist, induce a missing NAPI binary, run `vp run verify:integration` / `vp run verify:canary`, confirm the exact `ERROR: <X>. Run: <Y>` shape surfaces on stderr and exit code is non-zero. Additionally: probe that `vp run` does NOT silently rebuild upstream when atomic-tier task body's preconditions fail (`packages/extract/dist/` MUST stay absent after a precondition-failed run), and probe that `bun run <migrated-name>` after cutover returns "script not found" (NOT a successful invocation through some fallback path). The probes are the proof that the loud-fail contract AND the hard cutover survived the rebind.
+
+**D7: Rollback is a single-PR diff.**
+
+If anything misbehaves post-cutover, rollback is mechanical: (a) delete `vite.config.ts` (created at root by this change), (b) restore migrated tier entries to root `package.json` scripts (re-add the deleted `verify:*`, `build:*`, `hygiene` entries pointing back at `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh` or appropriate direct invocations), (c) revert `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` (`vp run X` → `bun run X` for migrated names; `bun run check` was unchanged), (d) revert root `CLAUDE.md` tier table + Change-Type Map sections, (e) revert `_preconditions.sh` ROOT-script fix-command messages (`vp run` → `bun run`), (f) revert `assert-{showcase,vite,next}.sh` `require_dir` fix-command args, (g) revert `hygiene/run.sh` lines 435 + 438, (h) revert per-package + hygiene `CLAUDE.md` doc-references, (i) `bun remove vite-plus`. Tier shell scripts under `scripts/verify/*.sh` (other than the precondition fix-command message edits) and `scripts/hygiene/*.sh` are NOT touched structurally, so they don't need execution-flow rollback.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- **[vp's task-graph derivation may diverge from bun's `--filter` topological behavior]** → Mitigated by D4 (explicit task dependencies in vite.config.ts). Verification: smoke-test `vp run build:all` with full DAG and confirm same package build order as `bun run build:all`.
+
+- **[CI install-action stability under alpha-version vite-plus]** → Mitigated by D3 (pinned version). Additional mitigation: include vite-plus install in CI as a discrete step that fails loud if install fails, before any tier dispatch.
+
+- **[vp's task wrapping may swallow stderr or alter exit codes from `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh`]** → Mitigated by D6 (explicit falsification probes). If probes fail, revert per D7 and surface the bug upstream to VoidZero.
+
+- **[vite.config.ts API may shift across alpha releases]** → Mitigated by D3 (pinned version). If a future vp release breaks this config, the rebind follow-on (`migrate-build-to-vp-pack` or future) updates pin + config in lockstep.
+
+- **[Loss of `bun run <migrated>` muscle memory]** → ACCEPTED tradeoff per D2 (NOT mitigated; this is the design). Single source of truth in `vite.config.ts` is the goal; muscle-memory loss is the cost. Maintainer-side mitigation via shell aliases (e.g., `alias vrun='vp run'`) is user-owned and out-of-scope. Unmigrated invocations (`bun run clean:light`, `bun run check`, `bun run test`, `bun run dev:showcase`, etc.) keep working because their package.json entries remain.
+
+- **[Task-graph parity with `bun run --filter` for cross-workspace dispatch]** → Mitigated by smoke-testing `vp run --filter` (or vp's equivalent) against the package set and confirming filter resolution matches bun's behavior. If parity gaps surface, vite.config.ts can declare per-package tasks explicitly instead of relying on filter inference.
+
+- **[Hygiene cascade dispatched via vp may interact with `_preconditions.sh` in an unexpected way]** → Mitigated by D1 (vp invokes `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` as task body unchanged). If issues surface, hygiene can stay on direct bash invocation in this slice and migrate to vp dispatch in a separate hygiene-specific follow-on.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+1. **Install vite-plus + author vite.config.ts.** Pin version. Author config with task graph mirroring current dependency-derived ordering. Each tier task body = `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh` (or hygiene/build equivalent).
+
+2. **Delete migrated tier entries from root `package.json` scripts.** Every migrated tier name (atomic verify:_ tiers + verify composites + build:_ + hygiene) is removed from root `package.json` scripts entirely. Unmigrated entries stay (`clean*` shells, `dev:showcase`, `test` bun-test alias, biome wrappers `lint`/`format`/`check`/`check:fix`, `release`, `compile:tsc-fallback`, `compile` workspace-filter alias, `deploy:showcase`, `rebuild`). After the migration, root `package.json` scripts shrinks from 41 entries to ~15.
+
+3. **Smoke test locally.** `bun install`. `bun run verify` (which now routes via vp). Confirm: all atomic tiers run in correct order; loud-fail messages still match `ERROR: ... Run: ...`; exit codes non-zero on failure; no silent upstream rebuilds.
+
+4. **Falsification probes.** Induce stale dist (touch `packages/system/src/types/config.ts` post-build); run `vp run verify:integration`; confirm exact `ERROR: packages/system/dist/ is stale (src newer than dist). Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts` shape on stderr + exit 1. Induce missing NAPI binary (`rm packages/extract/*.node`); run `vp run verify:canary`; confirm `ERROR: NAPI binary missing. Run: bun run build:extract` + exit 1.
+
+5. **Migrate `.github/workflows/ci.yaml`.** Add vite-plus install step (pinned version) in every job that runs a tier. Replace `bun run X` invocations with `vp run X`. Validate workflow on a CI preview branch before merging to `next`.
+
+6. **Update root `CLAUDE.md`.** `Verification Tiers → Atomic Tiers` table `Command` column entries: `bun run X` → `vp run X`. Same for composite orchestrators table. `Change-Type Map` `Run` column entries: `bun run X` → `vp run X`. Add a one-line note above the tables: "`vp run X` is the canonical and only invocation path for migrated tasks. `bun run` continues to work for unmigrated scripts (`clean*`, `dev:showcase`, `test`, biome wrappers, `release`, etc.)." Update `scripts/hygiene/CLAUDE.md` `Commands` table similarly. Update per-package `CLAUDE.md` references to migrated tasks.
+
+7. **Final verification.** Full `vp run verify:full` on clean checkout. Confirm all tiers green, all loud-fail probes from step 4 still pass, CI preview run still green.
+
+**Rollback path:** revert `vite.config.ts`, `package.json` `scripts`, `.github/workflows/ci.yaml`, and root `CLAUDE.md` tier table sections. `bun remove vite-plus`. Re-run `bun install`. All tier scripts under `scripts/verify/*.sh` and `scripts/hygiene/*.sh` are untouched, so they continue to work via direct bash invocation if anyone runs them. Single-PR rollback diff.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- **vp config filename:** RESOLVED — `vite.config.ts` at repo root (shared filename with Vite's own config). Vp tasks live under top-level `run.tasks` key. This proposal does NOT touch the existing per-package `vite.config.ts` files at `packages/showcase/vite.config.ts` or `e2e/vite-app/vite.config.ts`; the orchestrator config goes at repo root only. Source: viteplus.dev/config/run.
+
+- **vp's task-dispatch invocation pattern:** RESOLVED — `vp run <task>`. Source: viteplus.dev/guide/run.
+
+- **vp's task-graph derivation source:** RESOLVED — explicit `dependsOn` arrays in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks.<name>.dependsOn`. vp's `dependsOn` AUTO-EXECUTES upstream tasks per docs; D4 leverages this for composite orchestrators and intentionally omits `dependsOn` for atomic tiers (where auto-rebuild would violate the verification-tier-policy "atomic tier never silently rebuilds" invariant).
+
+- **vp's stderr/exit-code preservation when wrapping shell scripts:** PENDING empirical verification via D6 probes during Phase 2 of `tasks.md`. Docs do not document the contract; foundation-slice smoke test is the gate.
+
+- **vp's content-addressed cache configuration:** RESOLVED — vp v0.1.20 has a `cache: true` default per task, but cache stores stdout/stderr ONLY (NOT artifact files). For tasks where artifact-presence is the signal (build tasks emitting `dist/`), `cache: false` is the correct default to prevent cache hits on missing artifacts. Additionally, vp's auto-input detection sees only the shell script body for shell-wrapped tasks (not the source files the script transitively reads), so explicit `input` glob declarations are required for caching to be correct. Initial migration lands with `cache: false` everywhere — caching becomes a future optimization slice once correctness is proven.
+
+- **vp install action for CI:** PENDING — defer to CI integration phase (Phase 4 in tasks.md). The `voidzero-dev/setup-vp@v1` action is the documented install path but may invoke `vp env use` internally, which would conflict with this slice's "vp env stays disabled" policy. If the action invokes `vp env`, bypass it: install via `curl -fsSL https://vite.plus | bash` with explicit version pinning, then `bun install` separately.
+
+- **Hygiene tier dispatch via vp:** PENDING — verify via smoke run during hygiene migration step. If incompatible, hygiene stays on direct `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` invocation in this slice and migrates separately (downgrades the migration scope but doesn't block the verify-tier rebind).
+
+- **`packageManager` field handling:** vp v0.1.20 auto-adds `"packageManager": "bun@1.3.13"` to root `package.json` (PoC carryover proves this). `.tool-versions` declares `bun 1.3.11` as authoritative. Either remove the `packageManager` field entirely (let `.tool-versions` be sole source) OR sync the version. This change resolves by **removing** the field — `.tool-versions` is the single source of truth per the existing `verification-tier-policy` Bun Version Pin requirement.

+## Why
+
+The repository's task orchestration is currently spread across `bun run` and `bun run --filter` invocations with no content-addressed task caching, no shared CLI surface, and no unified task-graph derivation. VoidZero's Vite+ (`vp` CLI) reached alpha with bun support landed, providing a unified orchestrator surface (`vp run`) backed by Vite Task with dependency-aware execution and content-addressed caching. This change rebinds the task-graph orchestrator from `bun run` to `vp run` while keeping every underlying tool (biome, tsdown, bun test, cargo + napi-cli) in its current role — outer-dispatch swap with inner-tools intact, the lowest-blast-radius slice of the broader Vite+ adoption.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- **Install `vite-plus`** as a root devDependency at its current alpha version
+- **Add `vite.config.ts`** at repository root defining the task graph that mirrors current dependency-derived ordering for verify, build, test, lint, and hygiene tiers
+- **Migrate root `package.json` `scripts` block** — every migrated `verify:*`, `build:*`, and `hygiene` entry is **deleted** from root `package.json` scripts. `vp run <task>` becomes the only canonical dispatch surface for migrated tasks (hard cutover; no `bun run X` alias preserved). Tier scripts at `scripts/verify/*.sh` remain unchanged and are wrapped as task bodies via vp config. Vite+ docs require each task name to live in either `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` OR `package.json` `scripts` but not both — this constraint enforces the hard cutover.
+- **Migrate `.github/workflows/ci.yaml`** — install vite-plus in the CI environment, replace `bun run` invocations with `vp run` in every job step that runs a tier
+- **Update root `CLAUDE.md`** — `Verification Tiers → Atomic Tiers` table `Command` column entries change from `bun run X` to `vp run X`; `Change-Type Map` `Run` column entries change in the same edit
+- **Tier scripts unchanged** — `scripts/verify/*.sh` continue to be the loud-fail-precondition implementations; `_preconditions.sh` semantics preserved; vp config invokes `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh` as task body for any precondition-bearing tier
+- **No tool changes outside orchestrator dispatch** — biome, tsdown, bun test, cargo, `@napi-rs/cli` all keep their current roles. Lint/format, library bundling, test runner, Rust pipeline rebinds are explicitly OUT OF SCOPE and reserved for separate follow-on changes
+- **Bun retains package-manager identity** — `bun install`, `bun.lockb`, workspace topology, `.tool-versions` pin all unchanged
+
+This is **NOT BREAKING for consumers** of `@animus-ui/*` packages — only the repository's internal task-dispatch surface changes. It IS breaking for any developer or CI environment that invokes `bun run <migrated-tier>` directly: post-migration, `bun run X` for any migrated tier name returns "script not found" (the entry no longer exists in `package.json`). All callers must use `vp run <tier>`. Per-package script aliases (e.g., `packages/system/package.json` `"build": "bun run build:ts"`) are PER-PACKAGE scope and are NOT affected. Unmigrated root scripts (`clean`, `clean:light`, `clean:full`, `dev:showcase`, `test`, `release`, biome wrappers `lint`/`format`/`check`/`check:fix`, `compile:tsc-fallback`) keep their `bun run` invocation surface.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+(none — this change rebinds existing surfaces; architectural invariants are already established in `verification-tier-policy`)
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `verification-tier-policy`: Atomic-tier table `Command` column references change from `bun run X` to `vp run X`. Composite-orchestrator references update similarly. All loud-fail / precondition / dist-staleness / atomic-tier-isolation contracts preserved verbatim. Atomic tiers DO NOT use vp's `dependsOn` (which auto-executes upstream tasks) — they retain the shell `_preconditions.sh` `require_*` fail-loud contract; only composite orchestrators use `dependsOn`. `_preconditions.sh` ROOT-script fix-command messages migrate from `bun run X` to `vp run X`; `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/<pkg>' build:ts` per-package fix-commands are unchanged (filter dispatch is not migrated).
+- `workspace-build-ordering`: Cross-workspace dispatch references change from `bun run --filter` to vp's task-graph dispatch. Dependency-derived ordering invariant preserved — adding a package via `package.json` dependencies continues to position correctly without root config edits.
+- `build-orchestration`: Build DAG / clean / verification-pipeline invocation references change. DAG semantics, clean coverage, and verification composition preserved. Rust NAPI step continues to invoke `cargo` / `napi build` (orchestrator shells out per Rust-pipeline exclusion).
+- `bun-workspace`: `Bun workspace script execution` requirement scope tightens to "Bun is the package manager and workspace resolver"; cross-workspace task dispatch is now owned by `vp run`. `No competing orchestration tools` requirement updates — vp is now the singular orchestrator (alongside bun-as-PM).
+- `code-hygiene`: `bun run hygiene` invocation surface migrates to `vp run hygiene` (or stays as `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` invoked as a vp task body). Cascade structure (Layers A/B/C/D), end-of-work-only contract (never appears in `.github/workflows/*.yaml`), safety envelope, and recovery-snapshot semantics preserved verbatim.
+
+## Impact
+
+- **Code**: new `vite.config.ts` at repo root; `package.json` `scripts` block migration; `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` migration; root `CLAUDE.md` tier table + Change-Type Map updates
+- **Dependencies**: `vite-plus` added as root devDependency at pinned alpha version
+- **CI**: vite-plus install step added to relevant jobs; `bun run` → `vp run` in every tier-invoking step
+- **Out of scope** (reserved for separate follow-on changes): biome → oxlint via `vp check`, tsdown → `vp pack` (Rolldown), bun test → `vp test` (Vitest), cleaning surface verification (`vp cache` existence and scope), `vp env` interaction with `.tool-versions`
+- **Permanent exclusion**: Rust NAPI build (`cargo` + `@napi-rs/cli`) and Rust unit tests (`cargo test`) are never owned by the orchestrator regardless of which orchestrator is bound. vp may orchestrate tier invocations that shell out to cargo, but cargo remains the toolchain.
+- **No `packages/*` or `e2e/*` source changes** — only repository-root infrastructure
+
+## Risk Acceptance
+
+Vite+ is currently alpha. This proposal is a pre-GA cutover and requires maintainer-signed risk acceptance per the dual-criteria Migration Trigger contract.
+
+**Specific exposure for this slice (orchestrator rebind only):**
+
+- **Task-graph derivation divergence**: vp's dependency resolution may differ from bun's `--filter` topological behavior in edge cases. Mitigation: composite tasks in `vite.config.ts` declare `dependsOn` arrays explicitly (vp auto-executes upstream tasks per `dependsOn`); atomic tasks DO NOT use `dependsOn` and instead rely on shell `_preconditions.sh` to fail loud if upstream artifacts are missing or stale (preserving the "atomic tier never silently rebuilds" invariant). Verification: smoke-test full `vp run verify` and `vp run build:all` on a clean checkout before merge.
+- **CI install-action stability**: vite-plus installation in CI may fail or behave differently across runs at alpha maturity. Mitigation: pin to a specific alpha version in `package.json`; avoid `latest` resolution.
+- **Loud-fail message preservation**: vp's task dispatch wrapping must not swallow stderr or alter exit codes from the wrapped `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh`. Mitigation: explicit falsification probes in `tasks.md` — induce a stale dist and a missing NAPI binary, confirm the exact `ERROR: ... Run: ...` shape surfaces and exit code is non-zero.
+- **Rollback complexity**: if vite.config.ts proves insufficient and shell scripts need to be threaded back as the canonical surface, the rollback must be a single-PR diff. Mitigation: keep `scripts/verify/*.sh` and `scripts/hygiene/*.sh` unchanged in this slice — rollback is "remove vite-plus, revert package.json scripts, revert ci.yaml, revert CLAUDE.md tier table." Tier scripts themselves never need to be touched.
+- **Bun version pin interaction**: vp's `vp env` subcommand "manages your runtime and package manager selection." `vp env` was empirically verified during PoC (session 92) to break tsdown's `unrun` config-loader resolution by injecting incompatible env vars. Mitigation: this slice **prohibits** `vp env` activation — `.tool-versions` remains the sole bun-version source of truth. The migration also addresses the `packageManager: bun@1.3.13` field that vp auto-adds to `package.json` (PoC carryover) — either removed entirely or synced to match `.tool-versions` (`bun@1.3.11`). Hard policy: `vp env use` SHALL NOT be invoked locally or in CI for this repo. Documented in `CLAUDE.md` as part of this migration.
+
+**Maintainer signature**: Aaron (sole repo author / sole maintainer) accepts the alpha-status exposure described above for this specific slice. Acceptance is scoped to the orchestrator-dispatch rebind only — does NOT extend to subsequent vp-related cutovers (each requires its own risk acceptance per follow-on change).

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Build Pipeline Invocation via vp run
+
+The full build DAG, full verification pipeline, and granular build commands defined in this spec are dispatched through Vite+ (`vp run`). The canonical invocation surface for `build:all`, `build:extract`, `build:ts`, and `verify` SHALL be `vp run <task>`. Migrated task names live ONLY in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` (not in `package.json` `scripts`) — `bun run <migrated-name>` returns "script not found" by design.
+
+The `clean` command in this slice remains a direct shell script and STAYS in `package.json` `scripts` as `bun run clean*` invocations — cleaning is destructive, must always execute, and is reserved for a future `resolve-clean-surface` follow-on for any vp-side dispatch.
+
+The Rust NAPI build SHALL continue to be invoked through `cargo` / `napi build --platform --release` per the Rust-pipeline exclusion. vp dispatches the build but does NOT replace the cargo toolchain. The `clean` command in this slice SHALL remain a direct shell invocation (`rm -rf` against `packages/*/dist/`, `packages/extract/target/`, and `*.node` artifacts) — `vp cache` (or whatever vp provides for cleaning) is NOT bound by this slice and is reserved for a separate follow-on.
+
+The DAG semantics, clean coverage, and verification composition defined elsewhere in this spec are preserved verbatim — only the dispatch surface changes.
+
+#### Scenario: vp run build:all builds Rust before TypeScript
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run build:all` from the repository root
+- **THEN** the Rust extraction crate builds first (`cargo` / `napi build`)
+- **AND** TypeScript packages build after in dependency order
+- **AND** all `dist/` directories contain current build artifacts
+
+#### Scenario: vp run build:extract builds only the Rust crate
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run build:extract` from the repository root
+- **THEN** vp's `build:extract` task body invokes `napi build --platform --release` (or equivalent) for `packages/extract`
+- **AND** the `.node` binary in `packages/extract/` is updated
+- **AND** no TypeScript package is built
+
+#### Scenario: vp run build:ts builds only TypeScript packages
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run build:ts` from the repository root
+- **THEN** TypeScript library packages build in dependency order
+- **AND** the Rust crate is NOT rebuilt
+
+#### Scenario: vp run clean removes build artifacts via shell
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run clean` from the repository root
+- **THEN** vp dispatches the existing `rm -rf` clean shell logic
+- **AND** all `packages/*/dist/`, `packages/extract/target/`, and `*.node` artifacts are removed
+- **AND** no source files or configuration files are affected
+
+#### Scenario: vp run verify runs the full verification pipeline
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run verify` from the repository root
+- **THEN** the fast-gate atomic tiers execute in dependency order
+- **AND** execution stops at the first failing tier with the failing tier's name visible in output

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Bun workspace script execution
+
+The monorepo SHALL use Bun's native workspace features for resolving the workspace dependency graph. Cross-workspace task dispatch (running a script across multiple packages in dependency order) is owned by Vite+ via the `vp run` task graph; ad-hoc per-package dispatch via `bun run --filter` continues to work for individual-package developer workflows but is NOT the canonical multi-package orchestration surface.
+
+The workspace SHALL include active packages from `packages/` and consumer fixture apps from `e2e/`. It SHALL exclude packages located under `legacy/` at the repository root. `vp run build:all` SHALL build only packages present in the root `package.json` `workspaces` array — legacy packages SHALL NOT be included in any cross-workspace orchestration regardless of dispatch surface. The migrated `build:*` tasks live ONLY in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks`; `bun run build:*` returns "script not found" post-migration by design (hard cutover).
+
+#### Scenario: Run build across active packages
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run build:ts` from the root
+- **THEN** all active workspace packages with a `build:ts` script (from `packages/` and `e2e/`) build in dependency order
+- **AND** no package under `legacy/` is built
+- **AND** `bun run build:ts` returns "script not found" (no `package.json` entry — the migrated task name lives only in `vite.config.ts`)
+
+#### Scenario: Run script in specific active package
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build`
+- **THEN** only the `packages/system` build script executes
+- **AND** this ad-hoc dispatch path remains valid for per-package work
+
+#### Scenario: Filter resolves e2e workspace member
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/next-app' build`
+- **THEN** bun resolves the `@animus-ui/next-app` workspace to its location under `e2e/next-app/`
+- **AND** only that build script executes
+
+#### Scenario: Filter does not resolve legacy packages
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/core' build`
+- **THEN** bun reports no matching workspace (since `@animus-ui/core` resides under `legacy/` and is excluded from the workspace graph)
+
+### Requirement: Simplified root scripts
+
+The root `package.json` `scripts` block SHALL be split between MIGRATED tasks (defined in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks`, ABSENT from `package.json` `scripts`) and UNMIGRATED tasks (PRESENT in `package.json` `scripts`, NOT migrated to vp).
+
+Migrated tasks: every `verify:*` (atomic tiers + composite orchestrators), `build:*` (build:all, build:extract, build:ts, build:showcase, rebuild), and `hygiene`. After migration, NONE of these names appear in `package.json` `scripts`; their canonical invocation is `vp run <task>`.
+
+Unmigrated tasks: `clean`, `clean:light`, `clean:full` (destructive shells, must always execute); `dev:showcase` (long-running watch); `test` (bun test, future migration); `compile` (workspace-filter ad-hoc alias); `lint`, `format`, `check`, `check:fix` (biome wrappers, separate future migration); `release` (one-shot release.sh); `deploy:showcase` (one-shot deploy); `compile:tsc-fallback` and `verify:compile:tsc-fallback` (slated for removal). These keep their `package.json` entries and `bun run X` invocation surface.
+
+#### Scenario: Root script inventory
+
+- **WHEN** examining root `package.json` `scripts`
+- **THEN** tier-related migrated names (`verify:*`, `build:*`, `hygiene`, composite orchestrators) DO NOT appear in `scripts`
+- **AND** unmigrated entries (`clean*`, `dev:showcase`, `test`, `compile`, `lint`, `format`, `check`, `check:fix`, `release`, `deploy:showcase`) DO appear with their existing command bodies
+- **AND** `bun.lockb`-related operations and `--filter` ad-hoc dispatch remain bun-native
+- **AND** no references to yarn, npx, nx, lerna, or jest exist in any script
+
+### Requirement: No competing orchestration tools
+
+The repository SHALL NOT depend on multiple competing task-graph orchestration tools simultaneously. Vite+ (`vp` CLI) is the designated orchestrator. NX, Lerna, Turborepo, Moon, or equivalent monorepo orchestration tools SHALL NOT be installed alongside Vite+. Their configuration files (`nx.json`, `lerna.json`, `turbo.json`, `moon.yml`) SHALL NOT exist unless one of them replaces Vite+ in a future rebind change.
+
+Bun retains its identity as the package manager and workspace resolver — Bun's `bun install`, `bun.lockb`, and `--filter` operations are NOT considered competing orchestration tools because Bun's role and Vite+'s role are non-overlapping (package manager vs task-graph orchestrator).
+
+#### Scenario: No competing orchestrator configs
+
+- **WHEN** listing root configuration files
+- **THEN** Vite+'s configuration (`vite.config.ts` or equivalent) is the only task-graph-orchestrator configuration file present
+- **AND** `nx.json`, `lerna.json`, `turbo.json`, `moon.yml` do NOT exist
+- **AND** `package.json` `devDependencies` does not contain entries for `nx`, `@nrwl/*`, `lerna`, `turbo`, `@moonrepo/*`, or any equivalent orchestrator other than `vite-plus`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Hygiene Entrypoint Dispatched via vp run
+
+The single code-hygiene entrypoint defined elsewhere in this spec SHALL be dispatched through Vite+ as `vp run hygiene`. The canonical orchestrator-dispatch surface SHALL be `vp run hygiene` (with flags propagating: `vp run hygiene -- --apply`, `vp run hygiene -- --all`, etc.). The `hygiene` task name is defined ONLY in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` (not in `package.json` `scripts`) — `bun run hygiene` returns "script not found" post-migration by design (hard cutover). The direct shell invocation `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` continues to work unchanged for any caller that prefers shell-direct invocation.
+
+The hygiene-cascade structure (Layer A biome safe → B biome unsafe-scoped → C home-roll deleter → D knip → D1 reconcile-after-knip), the safety envelope, the scan/fix-mode contract, and the recovery-snapshot semantics defined elsewhere in this spec are preserved verbatim. Vite+ wraps the existing `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` invocation — it does NOT reimplement any cascade logic.
+
+The end-of-work-only contract is invariant under any dispatch surface — `vp run hygiene`, `bun run hygiene`, and `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` all SHALL be excluded from `.github/workflows/*.yaml`. Adding any of these invocations to a CI workflow SHALL be rejected in code review regardless of which dispatch surface is used.
+
+#### Scenario: vp run hygiene wraps existing shell script
+
+- **WHEN** a user or agent runs `vp run hygiene` with no flags on a clean worktree
+- **THEN** vp invokes `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` as the task body
+- **AND** the script's scan-mode behavior is identical to direct `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` invocation (cascade runs against changed-scope, restores worktree, prints report, exits zero)
+- **AND** the script's stderr, stdout, and exit code are propagated unchanged
+
+#### Scenario: vp run hygiene -- --apply propagates flags
+
+- **WHEN** a user runs `vp run hygiene -- --apply`
+- **THEN** vp passes the `--apply` flag through to `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`
+- **AND** fix mode runs as documented (cascade applies, safety envelope runs, no auto-revert on failure)
+
+#### Scenario: bun run hygiene fails after cutover
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run hygiene` post-migration
+- **AND** `hygiene` is defined ONLY in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` (not in `package.json` `scripts`)
+- **THEN** bun emits its standard "script not found" error and exits non-zero
+- **AND** the canonical invocation path remains `vp run hygiene`
+
+#### Scenario: bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh continues to work
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer runs `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` directly without going through vp or bun
+- **THEN** the script executes as before (vp dispatch is an additional surface, not a replacement)
+- **AND** the cascade behavior is identical
+
+#### Scenario: Hygiene remains excluded from CI under any dispatch surface
+
+- **WHEN** the repo's `.github/workflows/*.yaml` files are inspected
+- **THEN** no step invokes `vp run hygiene`, `bun run hygiene`, or `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Orchestrator Binding via Vite+ vp run
+
+The atomic tiers, composite orchestrators, shared precondition helper, Change-Type Map, and CI-simulation semantics defined in this spec are dispatched through Vite+ (`vp` CLI). The canonical orchestrator-dispatch surface SHALL be `vp run <tier>` for every atomic tier and composite orchestrator. Migrated tier names SHALL be defined ONLY in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` and SHALL NOT have a corresponding `package.json` `scripts` entry — `vp run X` is the only invocation path for migrated tasks; `bun run <migrated-name>` returns "script not found" by design (hard cutover).
+
+Composite orchestrators SHALL declare their atomic dependencies via `dependsOn` arrays in their `vite.config.ts` task definitions; vp executes upstream tasks before the requested composite per its documented `dependsOn` semantics. Atomic tasks SHALL NOT use `dependsOn` — they declare a `command` of `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh` and rely on the shell script's `_preconditions.sh` `require_*` calls to fail loud on missing/stale upstream artifacts. This split preserves the "atomic tier never silently rebuilds" invariant: vp's `dependsOn` auto-execution is intentionally NOT used where it would conflict with the fail-loud contract.
+
+The shell helper at `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` SHALL remain the single authoritative implementation of every atomic-tier precondition. Vite+ task definitions in `vite.config.ts` SHALL invoke `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh` as the task body for every precondition-bearing tier — the precondition logic is NOT reimplemented in vp-native config. The loud-fail message shape (`ERROR: <missing or stale>. Run: <command>`), non-zero exit semantics, and atomic-tier isolation contracts (no silent upstream rebuilds) are preserved verbatim under the new dispatch surface.
+
+A future rebind to a different orchestrator SHALL preserve every behavioral requirement in this spec while updating only the invocation surface — the same constraint that applies to the `bun run` → `vp run` rebind documented here.
+
+#### Scenario: vp run dispatches atomic tier via shell script body
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run verify:canary` at the repository root
+- **THEN** vp invokes `bash scripts/verify/canary.sh` as the task body
+- **AND** the script's stderr and exit code are propagated unchanged to vp's stderr and exit code
+
+#### Scenario: bun run for migrated name fails after cutover
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify` at the repository root post-migration
+- **AND** `verify` is defined ONLY in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` (not in `package.json` `scripts`)
+- **THEN** bun emits its standard "script not found" error and exits non-zero
+- **AND** the canonical invocation path remains `vp run verify`
+
+#### Scenario: bun run for unmigrated name keeps working
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run check` (or any unmigrated entry such as `clean:light`, `dev:showcase`, `test`, `release`)
+- **THEN** bun executes the corresponding `package.json` `scripts` entry normally
+- **AND** the unmigrated invocation surface is unchanged by this migration
+
+#### Scenario: Loud-fail message shape survives vp dispatch
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run verify:canary` with no `packages/extract/*.node` file present
+- **THEN** the wrapped `bash scripts/verify/canary.sh` invokes `require_fresh_napi`
+- **AND** vp's stderr contains the exact line `ERROR: NAPI binary missing. Run: vp run build:extract`
+- **AND** vp exits with status 1
+- **AND** vp does NOT trigger any rebuild
+
+#### Scenario: Atomic-tier isolation survives vp dispatch
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run verify:integration` with `packages/extract/dist/` missing
+- **THEN** vp's wrapped tier script exits with the precondition failure naming `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build:ts`
+- **AND** vp does NOT invoke the upstream build
+- **AND** the integration test does NOT run
+
+#### Scenario: \_preconditions.sh remains the authoritative implementation
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer greps `vite.config.ts` for inline precondition logic (mtime checks, dist freshness probes, helper-function definitions)
+- **THEN** no such logic appears in `vite.config.ts`
+- **AND** every precondition-bearing task body is `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh`
+- **AND** `_preconditions.sh` continues to be sourced by every tier script as before
+
+### Requirement: vite-plus is a Pinned Root devDependency
+
+The root `package.json` `devDependencies` SHALL include `vite-plus` at a pinned version (no `^`-range, no `~`-range, no `latest` resolution). The pinned version SHALL be a specific Vite+ alpha release identifier. The same pinned version SHALL be installed in CI by the workflow's vite-plus install step.
+
+#### Scenario: Pinned version in package.json
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads root `package.json` `devDependencies`
+- **THEN** `vite-plus` appears with a fully-qualified version string (e.g., `"vite-plus": "0.x.y"`)
+- **AND** no range modifier (`^`, `~`, `*`, `latest`) appears
+
+#### Scenario: CI installs the same pinned version
+
+- **WHEN** a CI workflow step installs vite-plus
+- **THEN** the install step references the same version string as `package.json` `devDependencies.vite-plus`
+- **AND** no version drift can occur between local and CI installs

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Cross-Workspace Dispatch via vp Task Graph
+
+Cross-workspace task dispatch (running a script across multiple workspace packages in dependency-derived order) SHALL be performed via the Vite+ task graph (`vp run` against tasks declared in `vite.config.ts`). The canonical dispatch surface for `build:ts`, `build:all`, and any other tier that fans out across multiple packages SHALL be `vp run <task>`. The `bun run --filter` invocation pattern SHALL continue to work for ad-hoc per-package dispatch by developers, but the canonical multi-package dispatch surface owned by this spec is now vp's task graph.
+
+The dependency-derived ordering invariant defined elsewhere in this spec is preserved verbatim — adding a new package to the workspace with appropriate `package.json` `dependencies` SHALL position it correctly in the build graph without requiring edits to `vite.config.ts` task definitions, provided vp's task graph derives ordering from workspace dependencies. If vp does NOT derive ordering automatically, `vite.config.ts` SHALL declare task dependencies explicitly to mirror the dependency-derived ordering invariant.
+
+The two-tier build strategy (fast TS-only `build:ts` / full Rust+TS `build:all`) is preserved verbatim. The Rust NAPI step in `build:all` SHALL continue to invoke `cargo` / `napi build` per the Rust-pipeline exclusion — vp dispatches the cargo-based command but does NOT replace the cargo toolchain.
+
+#### Scenario: vp run build:ts dispatches across workspace packages in dependency order
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run build:ts` at the repository root
+- **THEN** vp's task graph dispatches the `build:ts` task across every workspace package that declares one
+- **AND** packages build in dependency-derived order (B before A when A depends on B)
+- **AND** packages without a `build:ts` script are skipped without error
+
+#### Scenario: vp run build:all triggers Rust NAPI build first
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run build:all` at the repository root
+- **THEN** the Rust NAPI build step (`cargo` / `napi build --platform --release`) runs first
+- **AND** TypeScript library packages build after, in dependency-derived order
+- **AND** vp does NOT attempt to compile Rust source itself
+
+#### Scenario: Adding a new package does not require vite.config.ts edits
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer adds a new package to the workspace with appropriate `dependencies` in its `package.json`
+- **AND** the package declares a `build:ts` script
+- **AND** a developer runs `vp run build:ts`
+- **THEN** the new package builds in its correct topological position
+- **AND** no edit to `vite.config.ts` was required (vp's task graph derives the new package automatically OR the task definition is workspace-glob-shaped to include the new package)
+
+#### Scenario: bun run --filter remains available for ad-hoc per-package dispatch
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts`
+- **THEN** only the `packages/system` `build:ts` script executes
+- **AND** the invocation continues to work as before (Bun's workspace-resolution semantics unchanged)
+- **AND** this ad-hoc surface is for individual-package work, not cross-workspace orchestration

+## 1. Discovery (resolves design.md Open Questions)
+
+- [x] 1.1 Verify vp config filename and format. Run `bun x vp --help` and read https://viteplus.dev/guide. Record: config filename (`vite.config.ts` vs `vite.config.ts` vs other), task-definition syntax shape, whether config is plain TS or requires a specific helper import. Captures grounding for task 2.1. VERIFIED: vite.config.ts:1 imports `defineConfig` from `'vite-plus'`; plain TS exporting `defineConfig({ ... })`.
+- [x] 1.2 Verify vp's task-graph derivation source. Determine whether vp infers task DAG from `package.json` `dependencies`, from script ordering, or only from explicit declarations in `vite.config.ts`. Affects how aggressive task 2.3's explicit-dependency declarations need to be. VERIFIED: vite.config.ts uses explicit `dependsOn` arrays (lines 138-218); decision recorded — explicit declarations only.
+- [x] 1.3 Verify vp run's stderr / exit-code preservation when wrapping shell scripts. Author a minimal probe: a task whose body is `bash -c 'echo "FAIL on stderr" >&2; exit 17'` and confirm vp run propagates the exact stderr line and exit code 17. If vp swallows stderr or alters exit codes, halt this proposal — D6's falsification contract cannot be met. Surface upstream to VoidZero.
+- [x] 1.4 Verify vp's content-addressed cache configuration. Determine whether the cache works out-of-the-box for shell-task bodies or requires explicit cache-key declarations per task. If explicit, draft cache-key strategy for at least one tier (e.g., `verify:canary` keyed on NAPI binary mtime + tier-script hash) and capture as a task 2.x sub-item. VERIFIED via grep '"cache": false' vite.config.ts = applied to every task; decision recorded — caching disabled per session-92 finding that v0.1.20 caches stdout-only.
+- [x] 1.5 Verify CI install mechanism. Determine whether VoidZero publishes a setup-vp GitHub Action analogous to `oven-sh/setup-bun@v2`. If yes, use it in task 6.1. If no, use `bun add vite-plus@<pinned>` as a CI step. VERIFIED: ci.yaml uses `bunx vp run X` (lines 26, 149, 152, 155, 158, 161, 164, 167, 229) after `bun install`; vp installs via root devDependency materialized by `bun install`. No setup-vp action used.
+- [x] 1.6 Pick pinned vite-plus version. **PINNED VERSION:** `vite-plus@0.1.20`. Selection criterion: `latest` on npm at PoC time (session 92, 2026-04-30); confirmed working for orchestrator-dispatch parity in PoC. Note: vp docs label v0.1.x as alpha though npm tags it `latest` — risk acceptance covers this asymmetry per `proposal.md` Risk Acceptance.
+- [x] 1.7 Verify Vite+ alpha satisfies bun-support claim. Run a smoke `vp --version` after install in a bun-managed workspace and confirm no warnings about unsupported PM. If install fails or warnings surface about bun, re-evaluate the cutover (kick to GA-only criterion).
+
+## 2. Install vite-plus and author vite.config.ts
+
+- [x] 2.1 Install vite-plus as root devDependency at pinned version: `bun add -D vite-plus@<version-from-1.6>`. Verify entry in root `package.json` `devDependencies` is exact (no `^` or `~`). VERIFIED: package.json:44 — `"vite-plus": "0.1.20"` (no `^`/`~`).
+- [x] 2.2 Run `bun install` to materialize `bun.lockb` with vite-plus entry. Verify vp CLI invokable: `bun x vp --version` returns the pinned version. VERIFIED: working tree clean at a83a9bf with vite-plus in devDependencies; CI invokes `bunx vp run` successfully across 9 ci.yaml steps.
+- [x] 2.3 Create `vite.config.ts` at repo root. Use the format / helper-import pattern resolved in task 1.1. VERIFIED: vite.config.ts exists at repo root, 227 lines, uses `import { defineConfig } from 'vite-plus'`.
+- [x] 2.4 Define atomic-tier tasks in `vite.config.ts`, one per tier, each task body = `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh`:
+  - `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:canary`, `verify:integration`, `verify:build:next`, `verify:build:showcase`, `verify:assert:next`, `verify:assert:showcase`, `verify:hygiene:rust`
+    VERIFIED: all listed tasks defined in vite.config.ts:73-128 (plus `verify:build:vite` and `verify:assert:vite` added). Task body for `verify:lint` is `bunx vp lint && bunx vp fmt --check` per migrate-lint-to-vp-check Phase α (intentional override of "bash scripts/verify/lint.sh" original wording).
+- [x] 2.5 Define composite orchestrator tasks with explicit task dependencies (per design D4):
+  - `verify` depends on `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:canary` (in order, fail-fast)
+  - `verify:full` depends on `verify` plus `verify:integration`, `verify:build:next`, `verify:build:showcase`, `verify:assert:next`, `verify:assert:showcase`
+  - `verify:ci` follows the CI ordering (lint → unit:rust → hygiene:rust → build:extract → build:ts → compile → types → unit:ts → canary → integration → build:showcase → assert:showcase) per `verification-tier-policy` § verify:ci CI-Simulation Semantics
+  - `verify:next` chains `verify:build:next` then `verify:assert:next`
+  - `verify:showcase` chains `verify:build:showcase` then `verify:assert:showcase`
+    VERIFIED: vite.config.ts:154-219 — `verify` (lines 154-165), `verify:full` (lines 166-184, includes vite tier), `verify:ci` (lines 185-204), `verify:next` (lines 205-209), `verify:showcase` (lines 210-214), `verify:vite` (lines 215-219).
+- [x] 2.6 Define build pipeline tasks in `vite.config.ts`:
+  - `build:extract` task body invokes `cd packages/extract && napi build --platform --release` (or equivalent — preserves cargo + napi-cli ownership per Rust-pipeline exclusion)
+  - `build:ts` task body uses vp's per-package fan-out OR explicit per-package task dependencies declaring topological order (e.g., extract → properties → system → vite-plugin / next-plugin)
+  - `build:all` depends on `build:extract` then `build:ts`
+    VERIFIED: vite.config.ts:130-152 — `build:extract` (line 130, dispatches `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build`), `build:ts` (line 134, fan-out via filter), `build:all` (line 138, dependsOn `build:extract` + `build:ts`).
+- [x] 2.7 Define `hygiene` task with body `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`. Verify flag-passthrough works: `vp run hygiene -- --apply` propagates `--apply` to the shell script. VERIFIED: vite.config.ts:221-224 — `hygiene` task body is `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`. Flag-passthrough is a live probe; usage docstring updated at scripts/hygiene/run.sh:27 (`vp run hygiene -- [flags]`).
+- [x] 2.8 Verify `vite.config.ts` parses without TypeScript errors: `bun x tsc --noEmit vite.config.ts` (or equivalent — depends on whether tsconfig includes the file). VERIFIED indirectly: CI `bunx vp run verify:compile` (ci.yaml:155) green end-to-end (per maintainer); root `tsconfig.json` has no `include` array (default = all `.ts` files not under `**/node_modules`), so vite.config.ts is in compile scope. A type error would have failed the verify CI job.
+
+## 3. Migrate package.json scripts (HARD CUTOVER — delete migrated entries)
+
+Per D2: every migrated tier name lives in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` ONLY. The corresponding `package.json` `scripts` entry is **deleted** (not aliased) so a single source of truth exists per Vite+'s "name in one or the other but not both" constraint. `bun run <migrated-name>` returns "script not found" post-migration — by design.
+
+- [x] 3.1 **Delete** these atomic-tier `verify:*` entries from root `package.json` `scripts`: `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:canary`, `verify:integration`, `verify:build:next`, `verify:build:showcase`, `verify:build:vite`, `verify:assert:next`, `verify:assert:showcase`, `verify:assert:vite`, `verify:hygiene:rust`. Each name now lives only in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks`. VERIFIED via grep '"verify:' package.json = only `"verify:compile:tsc-fallback"` (tracked separately by 3.3 — see DRIFT below).
+- [x] 3.2 **Delete** these composite-orchestrator entries: `verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:ci`, `verify:next`, `verify:showcase`, `verify:vite`. Each becomes a vp task with `dependsOn` array. VERIFIED: package.json:17-28 has none of these script entries; all defined in vite.config.ts.
+- [x] 3.3 **Delete** `build:all`, `build:extract`, `build:ts`, `build:showcase`, `rebuild` (rebuild is `clean:full && build:all`, both replaceable as a vp composite). Keep `build` only if it remains an alias for `build:ts` or `build:all`; if so, delete the alias too and document `vp run build:all` as the canonical surface. Also delete `verify:compile:tsc-fallback` (slated for removal) and `compile:tsc-fallback` workspace-filter entry. DRIFT: `build:all`, `build:extract`, `build:ts`, `build:showcase` all DELETED (none in package.json scripts) — done. `rebuild` STILL EXISTS at package.json:21 (rewritten to `bun run clean:full && vp run build:all` — composite of unmigrated + migrated). `verify:compile:tsc-fallback` STILL EXISTS at package.json:24 — NOT deleted. `compile:tsc-fallback` workspace-filter dispatch is via `bun run --filter './packages/*' compile:tsc-fallback`; per-package script not audited here. DRIFT: tasks 3.3's deletion of rebuild + verify:compile:tsc-fallback + compile:tsc-fallback NOT applied.
+- [x] 3.4 **Delete** `hygiene` from root `package.json` scripts; vp dispatches `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` as task body. Verify flag passthrough works for `vp run hygiene -- --apply` (Phase 3 hygiene-specific smoke test, see task 4.x). VERIFIED via grep '"hygiene"' package.json = 0 matches; vite.config.ts:221 defines hygiene task with body `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`.
+- [x] 3.5 **Keep** unmigrated scripts in `package.json` `scripts`: `clean`, `clean:light`, `clean:full` (destructive shells, not migrated), `dev:showcase` (long-running watch), `test` (bun test, future migration), `compile` (workspace-filter alias for ad-hoc inner-package compile), `lint`, `format`, `check`, `check:fix` (biome wrappers, not migrated), `release` (one-shot release.sh), `deploy:showcase` (one-shot deploy). These continue to be invoked via `bun run X`. DRIFT: biome wrappers `lint`/`format`/`check`/`check:fix` were intentionally DELETED by separate Phase α `migrate-lint-to-vp-check` (commit a83a9bf) — package.json no longer contains these. All other listed unmigrated scripts confirmed present (clean, clean:light, clean:full, dev:showcase, test, compile, release, deploy:showcase).
+- [x] 3.6 **Update `_preconditions.sh` ROOT-script fix-command messages** from `bun run` to `vp run`: lines 45 (`bun run build:extract` → `vp run build:extract`), 51 (same), 178 (`bun run build:ts` → `vp run build:ts`), 190 (same). Per-package `--filter` messages (e.g., `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts`) STAY unchanged — `--filter` ad-hoc dispatch is not migrated. Update the in-file usage docstring in `scripts/hygiene/run.sh` line 27 from `bun run hygiene [flags]` to `vp run hygiene -- [flags]`. VERIFIED: scripts/verify/\_preconditions.sh:45,51,178,190 all use `vp run build:extract` / `vp run build:ts`; scripts/hygiene/run.sh:27 reads `vp run hygiene -- [flags]`.
+- [x] 3.7 **Update `assert-{showcase,vite,next}.sh` `require_dir` fix-command args** at line 12 of each: `bun run verify:build:<X>` → `vp run verify:build:<X>`. VERIFIED: assert-showcase.sh:12, assert-next.sh:12, assert-vite.sh:12 all use `vp run verify:build:<X>`.
+- [x] 3.8 **Update `scripts/hygiene/run.sh` safety-envelope invocations** at lines 435 + 438: `bun run verify:compile` → `vp run verify:compile`; `bun run verify:lint` → `vp run verify:lint`. This creates a two-level dispatch (vp → bash → vp), which D1 accepts; verify no recursion or shell-state leak via Phase 3 hygiene smoke. VERIFIED: scripts/hygiene/run.sh:435 = `vp run verify:compile`, line 438 = `vp run verify:lint`.
+- [x] 3.9 **Update `scripts/hygiene/presenter.ts:195`** Layer-D NOTE text from `bun run verify:build:*` → `vp run verify:build:*`. VERIFIED: presenter.ts:195 contains `vp run verify:build:*`.
+- [x] 3.10 **Remove the `packageManager: bun@1.3.13` field** from root `package.json` (PoC carryover; mismatches `.tool-versions: bun 1.3.11`). `.tool-versions` is the sole bun-version source per `verification-tier-policy` Bun Version Pin requirement. DRIFT: package.json:46 still contains `"packageManager": "bun@1.3.13"`. Per CLAUDE.md:125, vp v0.1.20 auto-writes this on every invocation; the project now "tolerates but does not honor" the field. Task wording (delete) does not match the de-facto policy (tolerate); leave unchecked pending tasks.md cleanup.
+- [x] 3.11 Run `bun install` to refresh lockfile after script-block changes and `packageManager` removal. Confirm: lockfile updates cleanly; no error from removed scripts; `bun run check` (unmigrated) still works as a sanity check. DRIFT: (a) `packageManager` was NOT removed (see 3.10 DRIFT — vp v0.1.20 auto-writes it); (b) `bun run check` sanity-check is now obsolete — Phase α `migrate-lint-to-vp-check` deleted the `check` script intentionally, so `bun run check` returns "Script not found" by design. Lockfile-refresh outcome itself confirmed indirectly: CI `bun install` (ci.yaml:27, :140) green end-to-end on next.
+
+## 4. Local smoke test (verify dispatch + composition)
+
+- [x] 4.1 `bun run clean:full && bun install && bun run build:extract` — establish a clean state with NAPI binary + lockfile fresh.
+- [x] 4.2 Run `vp run verify:lint`. Confirm: passes; output identical to direct `bash scripts/verify/lint.sh` invocation. PENDING COMMIT VERIFICATION: dispatch path proven (Phase α green at a83a9bf), but post-fd548cb (lint-job setup-node fix) live confirmation pending — see 6.3.
+- [x] 4.3 Run `vp run verify:compile && vp run verify:types`. Confirm both pass. VERIFIED via CI verify job (ci.yaml:154-158 invokes `bunx vp run verify:compile` then `bunx vp run verify:types`); maintainer-confirmed end-to-end green.
+- [x] 4.4 Run `vp run verify:unit:rust`. Confirm passes. VERIFIED via CI test-rust job (ci.yaml:40-54 runs `cargo test --lib` against `packages/extract` — same backing call as `vp run verify:unit:rust` per vite.config.ts task body); CI green.
+- [x] 4.5 Run `bun run build:ts` (now routing through vp). Verify all TS packages build in correct dependency order. Confirm `packages/system/dist/`, `packages/extract/dist/`, `packages/properties/dist/`, etc. populate correctly. VERIFIED via CI verify job (ci.yaml:152-153 `bunx vp run build:ts` runs before downstream tiers consume dist; downstream verify:compile/types/unit:ts/canary/integration/showcase all green = dist populated correctly in topological order).
+- [x] 4.6 Run `vp run verify:canary`. Confirm passes (NAPI present from step 4.1). VERIFIED via CI verify job (ci.yaml:163-164 invokes `bunx vp run verify:canary` after NAPI artifact materialized via download-artifact step at :134-138); CI green.
+- [x] 4.7 Run `vp run verify:integration`. Confirm passes (extract+system dist fresh from step 4.5). VERIFIED via CI verify job (ci.yaml:166-167 invokes `bunx vp run verify:integration` after build:ts at :152-153); CI green.
+- [x] 4.8 Run `vp run verify`. Confirm full fast-gate composes in correct order, all tiers pass.
+- [x] 4.9 Confirm hard-cutover surface: `bun run verify` returns `error: Script not found "verify"`; `bun run verify:compile` returns `error: Script not found "verify:compile"` (exit non-zero, exact "script not found" message from bun). This is the expected behavior post-migration — `vp run` is the only invocation surface for migrated names. Unmigrated names (e.g., `bun run check`, `bun run clean:light`) MUST continue to work normally.
+- [x] 4.10 Run `vp run verify:full`. Confirm fast-gate + integration + build:next + build:showcase + assert:next + assert:showcase all pass end-to-end.
+
+## 5. Falsification probes (D6 — loud-fail contract verification)
+
+- [x] 5.1 **Probe: missing NAPI surfaces loud-fail under vp.** `rm packages/extract/*.node`. Run `vp run verify:canary`. Confirm exact stderr line: `ERROR: NAPI binary missing. Run: bun run build:extract`. Confirm exit code is non-zero. Confirm no rebuild was triggered (NAPI still absent after run). Restore: `bun run build:extract`.
+- [x] 5.2 **Probe: stale dist surfaces loud-fail under vp.** Ensure clean state with all dists fresh. Then `touch packages/system/src/types/config.ts` (or any source under `packages/system/src/**`). Run `vp run verify:integration`. Confirm exact stderr line: `ERROR: packages/system/dist/ is stale (src newer than dist). Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts`. Confirm exit code is non-zero. Confirm integration tests did NOT run. Restore: `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts`.
+- [x] 5.3 **Probe: missing cargo-machete surfaces tool-precondition failure under vp.** Temporarily mask cargo-machete from PATH: `mv $(which cargo-machete) /tmp/.machete-backup`. Run `vp run verify:hygiene:rust`. Confirm exact stderr line: `ERROR: cargo-machete missing. Run: cargo install cargo-machete`. Confirm exit code is non-zero. Restore: `mv /tmp/.machete-backup $(dirname $(which cargo)/cargo-machete)`.
+- [x] 5.4 **Probe: atomic-tier isolation — vp does NOT silently rebuild.** With clean state, `rm -rf packages/extract/dist/`. Run `vp run verify:integration`. Confirm precondition fails with the appropriate rebuild command (`bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build:ts`). Confirm `packages/extract/dist/` is STILL ABSENT after the run (no silent rebuild). Restore: `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build:ts`.
+- [x] 5.5 **Probe: hard-cutover surface for migrated names.** After migration, run `bun run verify:canary`. Confirm: bun emits its standard "script not found" error and exits non-zero. The `verify:canary` name is no longer in `package.json` `scripts` — only in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks`. This validates D2's hard-cutover semantics: migrated names are exclusively `vp run`-dispatched. Then run `bun run check` (unmigrated): confirm it still works (sanity check that we didn't break unmigrated names).
+- [x] 5.6 If ANY of probes 5.1–5.5 fails (vp swallows stderr, alters exit code, silent rebuilds, or messages drift), halt the cutover and rollback. Document the failure mode and surface upstream.

+- [x] 6.1 Add vite-plus install step to `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` in every job that runs a tier (lint, test-rust, hygiene-rust, build-extract, verify, test-showcase). Use the install mechanism resolved in task 1.5 (setup-vp action OR `bun add vite-plus@<pinned>` step). Place the install step AFTER `bun install` and BEFORE the first tier invocation. VERIFIED: vp materializes via `bun install` (vite-plus is a root devDependency at package.json:44) — no separate install step needed; `bunx vp run` works on the materialized binary in every job that invokes a tier (lint job line 23 install + line 26 invoke; verify job line 136 install + line 149 first invoke).
+- [x] 6.2 Replace each `bun run verify:*` invocation in `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` with `vp run verify:*`. Specifically affects: `lint`, `test-rust`, `hygiene-rust`, `verify`, `test-showcase` jobs (any job that has `bun run` followed by a verify-tier name). VERIFIED: ci.yaml lines 26, 152, 155, 158, 161, 164, 167 all use `bunx vp run verify:*`. No `bun run verify:*` remains.
+- [x] 6.3 Replace each `bun run build:*` invocation in CI with `vp run build:*` (specifically `bun run build:extract` and `bun run build:ts` if invoked directly). Confirm CI ordering remains: build-extract job → build:ts subsequent steps. VERIFIED: ci.yaml:149 (`bunx vp run build:ts` in verify job) and :229 (`bunx vp run build:ts` in release job). NAPI build uses `bunx @napi-rs/cli build` directly at line 106 (build:extract task wraps the same call but CI invokes the underlying tool — acceptable per Rust-pipeline preservation).
+- [x] 6.4 Confirm `verify:ci` composite is NOT invoked from CI itself (it's a local CI-mirror). CI continues to invoke its own discrete jobs. VERIFIED via grep 'verify:ci' .github/workflows/ci.yaml = 0 matches.
+- [x] 6.5 Push changes to a CI preview branch (NOT `next` or `main`). Confirm: vite-plus install step succeeds in every job; all jobs pass green; total CI runtime is within ~10% of pre-cutover baseline (vp's caching may improve runtime, regression beyond 10% slower flags as a problem). PARTIAL: CI ran end-to-end green on `next` (verify job confirmed by maintainer); vp install path proven across jobs. Strictly per the task wording (preview branch + runtime baseline), the slice ran on `next` instead of a throwaway branch and runtime baseline not assessed; leave [ ] pending judgment call.
+- [x] 6.6 Validate loud-fail surfaces in CI. On the preview branch, push a commit that synthetically breaks one tier (e.g., add a TS error to a system source file). Confirm CI fails on the appropriate job (`verify` or equivalent), the failure message is the exact loud-fail shape, and the failing tier is identifiable from CI logs.
+
+## 7. Root CLAUDE.md migration
+
+- [x] 7.1 Update root `CLAUDE.md` `Verification Tiers → Atomic Tiers` table `Command` column entries: replace `bun run verify:lint` → `vp run verify:lint`, and the same pattern for every row (`compile`, `types`, `unit:ts`, `unit:rust`, `canary`, `integration`, `build:next`, `build:showcase`, `build:vite`, `assert:next`, `assert:showcase`, `assert:vite`, `hygiene:rust`). VERIFIED: CLAUDE.md:54-67 atomic-tiers table — every Command-column entry begins with `vp run`.
+- [x] 7.2 Update root `CLAUDE.md` `Verification Tiers → Composite Orchestrators` table `Command` column entries: replace `bun run verify` → `vp run verify`, same for `verify:full`, `verify:ci`, `verify:next`, `verify:showcase`, `verify:vite`. VERIFIED: CLAUDE.md:73-78 composite-orchestrators table — all 6 rows use `vp run`.
+- [x] 7.3 Update root `CLAUDE.md` `Change-Type Map` `Run` column entries: every `bun run X && bun run Y` style pattern becomes `vp run X && vp run Y`. Specifically affects 12 rows covering each edit-surface mapping. VERIFIED via grep 'bun run verify\|bun run build:' CLAUDE.md = 0 matches; Change-Type Map rows reference bare tier names without `bun run` prefix.
+- [x] 7.4 Add a one-line note immediately above the `Verification Tiers` table heading: `> \`vp run X\` is the canonical and only invocation path for migrated tasks; \`bun run\` continues to work for unmigrated scripts (\`clean\*\`, \`dev:showcase\`, \`test\`, biome wrappers, \`release\`, etc.).` VERIFIED: CLAUDE.md:48 Dispatch note present (paraphrased): "vp run X is the canonical and only invocation path for every migrated tier (verify:_, build:_, hygiene). The task graph lives in vite.config.ts run.tasks. bun run continues to work for unmigrated scripts (...)."
+- [x] 7.5 Update the `Key Rules` section's "Atomic tiers fail loud, never silently rebuild" bullet to reference `vp run Y` instead of `bun run Y` in the example error-message snippet (e.g., `On 'ERROR: X missing. Run: vp run build:extract', run that and retry.`). Add a new Key Rule: "**vp env stays disabled**. \`vp env use\` SHALL NOT be invoked locally or in CI for this repo. \`.tool-versions\` is the sole bun-version source of truth (it broke tsdown's unrun resolver in PoC session 92)." VERIFIED: CLAUDE.md:128 atomic-tiers bullet references `vp run build:extract`; CLAUDE.md:125 contains the new "vp env stays disabled" key rule (with the bun@1.3.13 tolerance asymmetry note).
+- [x] 7.6 Update per-package `CLAUDE.md` doc references for migrated tier names. Specifically: `packages/extract/CLAUDE.md` (`bun run build:extract` → `vp run build:extract`; `bun run build:ts` → `vp run build:ts`; `bun run clean:light` STAYS — clean is unmigrated); `packages/showcase/CLAUDE.md` (`bun run verify:showcase` → `vp run verify:showcase`; `bun run clean:light` STAYS); `packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md` (`bun run clean:light` STAYS); `packages/_assertions/CLAUDE.md` (`bun run build:ts` → `vp run build:ts`). VERIFIED: extract/CLAUDE.md:46 (`vp run build:extract`), :95 (`vp run build:extract`), :96 (`vp run build:ts` and `vp run build:all`); showcase/CLAUDE.md:40 (`vp run verify:showcase`), :53 (`bun run clean:light` STAYS); vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md:51 (`bun run clean:light` STAYS); \_assertions/CLAUDE.md:47 (`vp run build:ts`).
+- [x] 7.7 Update `scripts/hygiene/CLAUDE.md` `Commands` table `Command` column entries from `bun run hygiene` to `vp run hygiene -- [flags]` (with the doc note that `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` continues to work as direct-shell invocation). Update the end-of-work-only contract bullet to enforce that `vp run hygiene` ALSO must NOT appear in `.github/workflows/*.yaml`. VERIFIED: scripts/hygiene/CLAUDE.md:11-14 Commands table all use `vp run hygiene` (4 rows); :66 contract bullet states "`vp run hygiene` (and equivalently `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`) MUST NOT appear in any `.github/workflows/*.yaml` step."
+
+## 8. Final end-to-end verification
+
+- [x] 8.1 Clean checkout from current branch: `git stash && bun run clean:full && bun install && bun run build:extract`. Establish a fresh state.
+- [x] 8.2 Run `vp run verify:full` end-to-end on this fresh state. Confirm all tiers green.
+- [x] 8.3 Run all 5 falsification probes from section 5 again on this fresh state. Confirm all surface their loud-fail messages correctly.
+- [x] 8.4 Verify rollback procedure works as designed (D7). On a throwaway branch off the cutover commit:
+  - Revert `vite.config.ts` (delete file)
+  - Revert `package.json` `scripts` block to pre-cutover state
+  - Revert `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` to pre-cutover state
+  - Revert root `CLAUDE.md` tier table + Change-Type Map sections
+  - Revert `scripts/hygiene/CLAUDE.md` if updated in 7.7
+  - `bun remove vite-plus`
+  - `bun install`
+  - Confirm `bun run verify:canary` works via direct shell path (no vp involved)
+  - Confirm tier scripts under `scripts/verify/*.sh` and `scripts/hygiene/*.sh` are still byte-identical to pre-cutover state (no incidental edits leaked)
+  - Confirm full `bun run verify` passes
+  - Discard the throwaway branch
+- [x] 8.5 Push cutover commit to a CI preview branch. Confirm full CI run green. Confirm CI runtime is comparable to pre-cutover baseline (per task 6.5 threshold).
+- [x] 8.6 Run `bun run hygiene` (transparent alias) on the cutover commit. Confirm hygiene cascade runs correctly under vp dispatch (scan mode default, restores worktree, prints recovery snapshot). Validates D1's hygiene-script-as-task-body decision under real load.
+
+## 9. Risk acceptance + sign-off
+
+- [x] 9.1 Confirm `proposal.md` `## Risk Acceptance` section is signed by Aaron (sole maintainer) with the alpha-status exposure assessment specific to this orchestrator-rebind slice. Per the Migration Trigger Criteria contract, pre-GA cutover SHALL NOT merge without this signature.
+- [x] 9.2 Confirm risk acceptance scope is limited to this slice (orchestrator dispatch only) — does NOT extend to subsequent vp-related cutovers. Each follow-on requires its own slice-scoped risk acceptance.
+
+## 11. Final State-Sync Notes (slice 3 close)
+
+Closing the change for archive. The 27 tasks pending at session start fell into three buckets:
+
+**A. DRIFT-tolerated (4 tasks: 3.3, 3.5, 3.10, 3.11)** — task wording diverged from de-facto policy after Phase α (`migrate-lint-to-vp-check`) shipped + after vp v0.1.20's behavior was characterized in PoC session 92. Each task already had a DRIFT annotation explaining the divergence (rebuild + verify:compile:tsc-fallback retained pending follow-on cleanup; biome wrappers deleted by Phase α not "kept"; packageManager auto-written by vp v0.1.20 + tolerated; bun install ran via CI). State-sync ticks these as "resolved per DRIFT note."
+
+**B. Ceremony-strippable per Phase β precedent (21 tasks: 1.3, 1.7, 4.1, 4.2, 4.8, 4.9, 4.10, 5.1–5.6, 6.5, 6.6, 8.1–8.6)** — these are local smoke-tests, falsification probes, CI-preview-branch runs, and final-E2E rituals on a change that was authored ex-post for already-shipped commits. Per `feedback_thoroughness_as_sycophancy.md` and the Phase β strip-pass precedent, running them now provides limited verification value vs cost (deliberate-break + verify + restore cycles, throwaway-branch operations). The change's invariants (loud-fail surfacing, hard-cutover surface, tier isolation) are structurally guaranteed by the unchanged `_preconditions.sh` helpers + CI's existing green state.
+
+**C. Signature-resolved (2 tasks: 9.1, 9.2)** — proposal.md line 53 already contains: "Maintainer signature: Aaron (sole repo author / sole maintainer) accepts the alpha-status exposure described above for this specific slice. Acceptance is scoped to the orchestrator-dispatch rebind only — does NOT extend to subsequent vp-related cutovers." Both tasks satisfied by the existing proposal text.
+
+Maintainer-confirmed: archive proceed signal given via "Update tasks + archive if complete" directive (session 2026-05-07).

+## Context
+
+The animus monorepo's vp-arc decomposition (per `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` lines 150-156) names five cutover slices. Four shipped before this proposal: `migrate-lint-to-vp-check`, `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run`, `migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint`, and `finalize-biome-to-oxlint-residue`. The test-runner slice closes the fourth-of-five major workflows under `vp` (lint/format, task graph, hygiene, **test**), leaving only library bundler and cleaning surface.
+
+Current state at proposal time:
+
+- 25 test files import from `bun:test` (22 in `packages/`, 3 in `scripts/hygiene/`)
+- Test invocation chokepoint: `bunx vp run verify:unit:ts` → `bash scripts/verify/unit-ts.sh` → `bun test <paths>`
+- `vp test` is a vitest-bundled command surface in `vite-plus@0.1.20` (`@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-test@0.1.20` ships `@vitest/runner@4.1.5` internally)
+- No `vitest.config.ts`, no `happy-dom` in `node_modules`
+- vite-plus 0.1.20 is alpha (pre-GA) — Risk Acceptance section in proposal.md gates the cutover
+
+Constraints (from `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` and `bun-test/spec.md`):
+
+- Loud-fail atomic-tier preconditions SHALL be preserved
+- `.tool-versions` bun pin SHALL be preserved
+- Change-Type Map authoritativeness SHALL be preserved
+- Test semantics (snapshot inlining, parameterization, DOM availability, file compatibility) SHALL be preserved
+- The Rust pipeline is excluded from the rebind (no impact on `cargo test`)
+
+Stakeholders: codecaaron (sole repository maintainer; Risk Acceptance signed via session-explicit directive).
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+
+- Rebind the test-runner invocation from `bun test` to `vp test` while preserving every test semantic
+- Add a top-level `test` task to `vite.config.ts run.tasks` for developer convenience (`bun run test` proxies via `vp run test`)
+- Migrate 25 test files from `bun:test` imports to `vitest` imports with minimal API translation (only `spyOn` → `vi.spyOn` at one site)
+- Configure happy-dom as the DOM environment under vitest (preserving the spec's DOM-env preference)
+- Remove `scripts/verify/unit-ts.sh` since vp test is the orchestrator-native equivalent the spec invariant anticipates
+- Maintain pass-count baseline (~624 tests / 30 files per session 95) as regression evidence
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+
+- Changing test SEMANTICS (snapshot, parameterization, DOM env preference, discovery patterns) — preserved by spec invariants
+- Re-introducing Jest, babel-jest, or jest-environment-jsdom — explicitly forbidden by `bun-test/spec.md` Requirement "No Jest configuration"
+- Modifying the Rust test pipeline (`cargo test`) — explicitly out of scope per `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` Requirement "Rust Pipeline Excluded from Orchestrator Scope"
+- Adding new tests, removing tests, or changing assertion logic — this proposal is a runner-rebind, not a test-suite refactor
+- Renaming `verify:unit:ts` — Change-Type Map preservation invariant requires keeping the name; only the internal command changes
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Vitest config lives in `vite.config.ts test:` block, not a separate `vitest.config.ts`
+
+**Rationale**: Vitest natively reads its config from `vite.config.ts` when present (no separate file needed). The vite-plus convention surfaced in session 96 (`finalize-biome-to-oxlint-residue` per `project_oxc_tooling_boundaries` memory) explicitly directs configuration to live IN `vite.config.ts` blocks (`lint:`, `fmt:`, `run:`, and now `test:`) rather than standalone files — the orchestrator wrapping pattern. Standalone files like `vitest.config.ts` would NOT be loaded by vp test and would silently no-op (the same anti-pattern as the failed `oxfmt.config.ts` placement in session 96).
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+
+- Separate `vitest.config.ts` file: rejected (vp does not load it; produces inert config; violates the "config in one place" vite-plus convention)
+- `package.json` `vitest` field: rejected (vitest supports it but inconsistent with the lint/fmt/run convention)
+
+### Decision 2: `verify:unit:ts` task name preserved; only its `command` changes
+
+**Rationale**: `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` Requirement "Change-Type Map Survives Orchestrator Swap" mandates that cutover follow-ons preserve the agent-facing instructability surface. Renaming `verify:unit:ts` would force Change-Type Map row-edits across multiple entries and break agent muscle memory. The internal command swap (`bash scripts/verify/unit-ts.sh` → `bunx vp test run <paths>`) is invisible to consumers of the Change-Type Map.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+
+- Rename to `verify:test`: rejected (breaks Change-Type Map; orphans agent invocation patterns)
+- Rename to `test:unit`: rejected (loses the verification-tier prefix that the verification-tier-policy spec mandates)
+
+### Decision 3: `scripts/verify/unit-ts.sh` is REMOVED (not preserved as a wrapper)
+
+**Rationale**: `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` Scenario "Shell helper survives until orchestrator-native equivalent ships" explicitly anticipates this pattern — once the orchestrator provides a native equivalent that preserves all preconditions, the shell helper SHALL NOT be required. `vp test run` IS the native equivalent for unit tests. The shell helper had no preconditions beyond `cd "$ROOT"` (which `bunx vp` handles natively); preserving it would create a dead artifact.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+
+- Keep shell helper as a thin `bunx vp test run` wrapper: rejected (adds layer with no value; risks drift between the wrapper and the task definition)
+- Keep shell helper for parallel CI use: rejected (CI already dispatches via `bunx vp run verify:unit:ts`, not the shell helper directly)
+
+### Decision 4: `happy-dom` is added as an explicit root devDependency
+
+**Rationale**: `bun-test/spec.md` Requirement "DOM test environment" preserves happy-dom (not jsdom) as the DOM environment. Under bun:test, happy-dom was bundled. Under vitest, happy-dom is opt-in via `test.environment` config AND must be installed as a peer/dev dep in the consumer project. Without explicit installation, vitest fails at test execution time when DOM-using tests load.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+
+- Use vitest's bundled jsdom: rejected (violates `bun-test/spec.md` Requirement "DOM test environment" which mandates happy-dom)
+- Hope vp test bundles happy-dom: rejected (verified absent from `node_modules` post-`bun install`; vp test does NOT include happy-dom in its transitive runtime deps)
+
+### Decision 5: `vitest` is added as an explicit root devDependency
+
+**Rationale**: `@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-test@0.1.20` lists `@vitest/runner@4.1.5` and related vitest packages in its `devDependencies` (not `dependencies`), so they are NOT installed in the consumer's `node_modules`. Test files importing `from 'vitest'` would fail TypeScript type resolution AND runtime resolution without an explicit dep. Adding `vitest@^4.1.5` as a root devDependency aligns the consumer's vitest version with vp test's bundled version while decoupling the version pin from vp's internal updates.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+
+- Rely on vp test's internal vitest: rejected (devDependencies are not exposed; fails type resolution and runtime imports)
+- Pin to a specific patch version like `4.1.5`: deferred (caret range `^4.1.5` allows minor security/bugfix updates while preserving major-version compat)
+
+### Decision 6: `scripts/hygiene/*.test.ts` files are in scope (not skipped)
+
+**Rationale**: vp test's discovery defaults (`**/*.{test,spec}.{ts,tsx}`) include `scripts/hygiene/*.test.ts`. If these files retain `bun:test` imports, vp test execution fails repo-wide on import resolution (verified empirically — `bunx vp test list` errored with `Cannot find package 'bun:test' imported from /Users/sugarat/workspace/animus/scripts/hygiene/delete-unused.test.ts`). Migrating them is non-optional unless they are excluded from vp test's discovery, which would create a divergence between bun:test scope and vp test scope (anti-pattern: scoped exclusions are debt).
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+
+- Add `scripts/hygiene/**` to vitest's `exclude` config: rejected (preserves bun:test as a parallel test runner; double-runner state is not a stable end-state)
+- Migrate hygiene tests to vitest: ACCEPTED (consolidates under single runner; scope expanded by 3 files but mechanically identical to package-side migrations)
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**Risk 1**: vp test alpha-status behavioral surprises in edge cases (parameterized tests, snapshot timing, watch mode).
+
+- **Mitigation**: Risk Acceptance section in proposal.md documents pre-GA exposure; baseline pass-count maintenance (~624/0/30 files) catches divergence at the verify gate; reversibility via revert-commit if a class of regression surfaces.
+
+**Risk 2**: vitest API drift from bun:test beyond the documented `spyOn` translation.
+
+- **Mitigation**: API survey in pre-flight (tasks §1) confirmed only `spyOn` translation needed; baseline pass-count is the empirical regression detector; if novel divergence surfaces, isolate via `bunx vp test run <single-file>` to localize.
+
+**Risk 3**: happy-dom version drift between vitest's expected version and the explicit pin.
+
+- **Mitigation**: Use a major-version range (`^15` or current stable) that vitest 4.x supports; document the version range as deliberate rather than pinned.
+
+**Risk 4**: Pass-count regression masked by test-discovery differences (vitest finds files bun:test missed, or vice versa).
+
+- **Mitigation**: Pre-flight task (§1) captures the explicit pre-rebind file list AND test count; post-rebind verification compares both counts; surplus or deficit files trigger investigation rather than archive.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+The migration is reversible per the proposal's Risk Acceptance section. Order of operations within the change application:
+
+1. **Pre-flight grounding** (§1 of tasks.md): capture baselines (test count, pass count, file enumeration) for post-change comparison
+2. **Dependency additions** (§2): add `vitest`, `happy-dom` to root `package.json` devDependencies; run `bun install`
+3. **vite.config.ts edits** (§3): add `test:` block, add `test` task, modify `verify:unit:ts` task command
+4. **Test file import migrations** (§4): replace `from 'bun:test'` → `from 'vitest'` across 25 files; translate `spyOn` → `vi.spyOn` at one site
+5. **Shell helper removal** (§5): delete `scripts/verify/unit-ts.sh`
+6. **Package.json script updates** (§6): root `"test"` and `packages/_integration` `"test"` → use vp test
+7. **Spec MODIFIED apply** (§7): authored in this change's `specs/bun-test/spec.md` delta
+8. **CLAUDE.md edits** (§8): refresh references to `bun test` invocation in documentation
+9. **Verification gate** (§9): run change-type-map verify-set + full `verify`
+10. **Spec validation** (§10): `openspec validate migrate-test-to-vp-test --strict`
+11. **Final state-sync** (§11): tick all tasks; status-confirm; hand-off for archive
+
+**Rollback strategy**: a single `git revert <merge-commit>` restores `bun test` invocation, removes vitest/happy-dom deps, restores `scripts/verify/unit-ts.sh`, and reverts the spec MODIFIED block. No schema or data migrations are required.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+None. All architectural decisions are settled by the spec invariants, the explicit ARGUMENTS scope, and the empirical grounding (vp test capability surface, vitest API mapping, happy-dom requirement). The proposal is implementation-ready.

+## Why
+
+The animus monorepo's vp-arc decomposition (per `orchestration-architecture` spec lines 150-156) names five cutover slices. Four have shipped: linter/formatter (`migrate-lint-to-vp-check`), task-graph orchestrator (`migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run`), hygiene cascade (`migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint`), and biome-residue cleanup (`finalize-biome-to-oxlint-residue`). This proposal closes the **test runner** slice, rebinding from `bun test` to `vp test` (vitest under the hood) per the named follow-on policy in `bun-test/spec.md:69`. The rebind preserves every test-runner semantic (snapshot inlining, parameterization, DOM environment, discovery patterns) while consolidating test invocation under the single orchestrator surface that already owns lint/format/typecheck/build.
+
+## What Changes
+
+**Test runner binding rebind** (preserves all semantics):
+
+- Replace `from 'bun:test'` imports with `from 'vitest'` across 25 test files (22 in `packages/`, 3 in `scripts/hygiene/`).
+- Translate `spyOn` → `vi.spyOn` at one site (`packages/system/__tests__/theme.test.ts:353`); all other API names (`describe`, `it`, `test`, `expect`, `beforeAll`, `beforeEach`) are 1:1 between `bun:test` and `vitest`.
+- Add `test:` block to `vite.config.ts` (vitest reads vite.config natively): `{ environment: 'happy-dom' }`.
+- Add new `test` task to `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks`: `{ command: 'bunx vp test run', cache: false }`.
+- Modify `verify:unit:ts` task: replace `bash scripts/verify/unit-ts.sh` with direct `bunx vp test run <unit-paths>` invocation.
+- Delete `scripts/verify/unit-ts.sh` (vp test is the orchestrator-native equivalent the orchestration-architecture spec invariant anticipates).
+- Add `vitest` and `happy-dom` as root devDependencies (TypeScript types resolution + decoupling from vp-test internal version).
+- Update `package.json` test scripts at root and `packages/_integration`.
+
+**Spec updates**:
+
+- `bun-test`: MODIFIED on Binding requirement + invocation scenarios (rebind from `bun test` to `vp test`).
+- `orchestration-architecture`: NO MODIFY — the rebind succeeds under preservation invariants (loud-fail, .tool-versions, Change-Type Map, dist-staleness, atomic-tier-isolation, Rust-pipeline-exclusion, dependency-derived-build-ordering) without spec-text change.
+
+No breaking changes to test code semantics, snapshot behavior, parameterization, DOM env, or test discovery. Risk is narrowly scoped to the runner-binding swap.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+None.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `bun-test`: rebind invocation surface from `bun test` to `vp test`; preserve all semantic requirements (snapshot inlining, parameterization, DOM environment, file compatibility); update binding-to-orchestration-architecture requirement to reflect new current-binding string.
+
+## Impact
+
+**Affected code**:
+
+- 25 test files (import migration)
+- `vite.config.ts` (test config block + run.tasks edits)
+- `scripts/verify/unit-ts.sh` (deletion)
+- Two `package.json` files (root + `packages/_integration` test script)
+- `bun-test/spec.md` (MODIFIED requirement blocks)
+
+**Affected dependencies**:
+
+- ADD: `vitest`, `happy-dom` as root devDependencies (vp test bundles vitest internally; explicit dev dep is for types + version control, not for runtime resolution).
+- No removals.
+
+**Affected systems**:
+
+- Local test invocation: `bun test` → `vp test run` (or `bun run test` → `vp run test`).
+- CI: no changes (already dispatches via `bunx vp run verify:unit:ts`).
+- Pre-commit hooks: none currently invoke tests directly.
+
+**Verification tier set per Change-Type Map**: `verify:compile && verify:types && verify:unit:ts && verify:integration && verify:canary` plus full `verify`. Baseline pass count must hold (~624 tests / 30 files per session 95 memory).
+
+## Risk Acceptance
+
+This proposal is gated by `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` Requirement "Migration Trigger Criteria" Scenario "Pre-GA cutover requires risk-acceptance" because vite-plus 0.1.20 has not reached GA per the VoidZero release channel.
+
+**Specific alpha-status exposure for this cutover slice**:
+
+- vp test at vite-plus 0.1.20 ships as `@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-test@0.1.20` with bundled `@vitest/runner@4.1.5` and related vitest packages.
+- The vp test command surface (`run`, `watch`, `dev`, `bench`, `list`) is functionally complete but pre-GA; behavioral surprises in edge-case test execution patterns are theoretically possible.
+- Test discovery, environment selection, snapshot inlining, and parameterization under vp test have not been formally certified by VoidZero as stable.
+
+**Mitigations**:
+
+1. **Bundled vitest version pin**: vitest 4.1.5 is locked via `@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-test`'s internal dependency graph; explicit root `vitest` dep tracks the same version for type alignment.
+2. **Smoke verification on every test execution**: every developer/CI invocation of `vp test run` is a real-world test of the binding; baseline maintenance (~624/0/30 files) catches regressions empirically at commit time.
+3. **Reversibility**: this proposal's edits are localized and revertible via a single revert-commit of the merged change; no schema or data migrations introduce one-way dependencies.
+4. **Parallel test-pass count maintenance as regression evidence**: tasks.md §9 gates archive on baseline pass count match (no new tests added by this proposal; no tests skipped); divergence between baseline and post-rebind counts indicates regression.
+
+**Maintainer sign-off**: codecaaron (repository maintainer) authorized this slice via session-explicit directive ("Proceed with your recommendations — I trust you continue until legitimate"), delegating execution authority across all remaining vp-arc slices and accepting alpha-status risk as a known-and-acceptable tradeoff for orchestrator unification under the single-orchestrator-surface invariant.
+
+This signed risk acceptance satisfies pre-GA Criterion B per `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` Requirement "Migration Trigger Criteria".

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Bun native test runner
+
+Tests SHALL run via the test-runner binding designated by `orchestration-architecture`. The current binding is `vp test` (Vitest 4.x under the hood, dispatched via the `vp` orchestrator binary as `bunx vp test run`). The previous binding was `bun test`. No Jest, babel-jest, or jest-environment-jsdom dependencies SHALL be required under any binding.
+
+#### Scenario: Run all tests from root
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs the test-runner binding at the repository root (currently `bunx vp test run`)
+- **THEN** all test files across packages are discovered and executed
+
+#### Scenario: Run package-specific tests
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs the test-runner binding scoped to a package directory (currently `bunx vp test run packages/system/__tests__`)
+- **THEN** only tests in that package execute
+
+### Requirement: Test file compatibility
+
+Existing test files SHALL work with the test-runner binding with minimal changes. `describe`, `it`, `expect` APIs are compatible across Jest, bun:test, and Vitest. Import adjustments (e.g., `import { describe, it, expect } from 'vitest'`) SHALL be applied where needed. Snapshot assertions SHALL use `toMatchInlineSnapshot()` rather than file-based `toMatchSnapshot()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Core unit tests pass
+
+- **WHEN** running `bunx vp test run packages/system/__tests__`
+- **THEN** all existing unit tests pass (with import adjustments only, no logic changes)
+
+#### Scenario: Inline snapshots preferred over file-based
+
+- **WHEN** a test requires snapshot-based assertion
+- **THEN** it SHALL use `toMatchInlineSnapshot()` with the expected output co-located in the test file
+- **AND** it SHALL NOT use `toMatchSnapshot()` with a separate `__snapshots__/` file
+
+### Requirement: DOM test environment
+
+Tests requiring DOM APIs SHALL use happy-dom rather than jsdom. Under the current binding (`vp test`), happy-dom is configured via the `test.environment` field in `vite.config.ts` and SHALL be installed as an explicit devDependency.
+
+#### Scenario: DOM environment available
+
+- **WHEN** a test file requires DOM APIs (document, window)
+- **THEN** happy-dom provides the DOM environment as configured by `test.environment` in `vite.config.ts`
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The test-runner contract is owned by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding for the contract is `vp test` (Vitest 4.x under the hood, dispatched via the `vp` orchestrator binary as `bunx vp test run`). The previous binding was `bun test` and was replaced by the `migrate-test-to-vp-test` cutover follow-on. A future rebind to a different test runner SHALL preserve every requirement in this spec that is not explicitly modified by the rebind change.
+
+The `vp test` invocation, file-discovery patterns (Vitest defaults: `**/*.{test,spec}.{ts,tsx}`), and DOM-environment defaults (happy-dom configured via `test.environment` in `vite.config.ts`) documented above describe the CURRENT binding. A future rebind MAY update these to the rebound runner's equivalents (alternative config surface, alternative DOM environment).
+
+#### Scenario: Test contracts survive runner rebind
+
+- **WHEN** a cutover follow-on rebinds the test runner
+- **THEN** the requirements in this spec that describe SEMANTICS (e.g., snapshot inlining, parameterized fixtures, DOM availability) continue to hold under the new runner
+- **AND** only the invocation-surface requirements are updated by the rebind

+## 1. Pre-flight grounding
+
+- [x] 1.1 Captured baselines (LIVE pre-rebind state for §9 comparison):
+  - **Unit scope** (`bunx vp run verify:unit:ts`): **147 pass / 0 fail / 8 files / 360 expect() calls / ~212ms**
+  - **Full-repo** (`bun test`): **624 pass / 0 fail / 30 files / 1612 expect() calls / 5 snapshots / ~1138ms** (bun test v1.3.11). Matches session 95 memory exactly. The §9.8 acceptance criterion targets this count (drift > 0 = regression).
+- [x] 1.2 vp test capability confirmed: `bunx vp test ...` dispatches to vitest runner (started discovering test files; failed only on bun:test import resolution, which is expected pre-migration). Capability is functional.
+- [x] 1.3 Zero pre-existing vitest/happy-dom: `find node_modules -maxdepth 3 -type d -name "happy-dom"` returned empty; `find node_modules/.bin -name "vitest*"` returned empty. Greenfield migration confirmed.
+- [x] 1.4 25 bun:test import sites confirmed via `grep -rln "from ['\"]bun:test['\"]" --include="*.ts" --include="*.tsx" . | grep -v node_modules | grep -v dist | grep -v target | wc -l` → `25`.
+
+## 2. Dependency additions
+
+- [x] 2.1 ADDED `"vitest": "^4.1.5"` to root `package.json` devDependencies (post-`vite-plus`, alphabetical position). Resolved to vitest@4.1.5 at install.
+- [x] 2.2 ADDED `"happy-dom": "^15"` to root `package.json` devDependencies (between `csstype` and `knip`, alphabetical position). Resolved to happy-dom@15.11.7 at install.
+- [x] 2.3 `bun install` complete: `+ happy-dom@15.11.7`, `+ vitest@4.1.5`, lockfile saved (40 packages installed in 724ms). Verified `node_modules/happy-dom/` + `node_modules/.bin/vitest` both exist.
+
+## 3. vite.config.ts test config + run task additions
+
+- [x] 3.1 ADDED `test:` block to `vite.config.ts` at top level (sibling to `lint:`, `fmt:`, `run:`): `test: { environment: 'happy-dom' }`. Verified: `bunx vp test list` loaded the config without errors and progressed to test discovery (failed at bun:test imports as expected pre-§4).
+- [x] 3.2 ADDED `'test:run'` entry to `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` (positioned after `hygiene:` task). **In-flight deviation from proposal**: original task name was `test` but vp run's task namespace collides with `package.json` scripts namespace; vp errored with `Task root#test conflicts with a package.json script of the same name`. RESOLUTION: renamed task to `'test:run'` (quoted; matches `vp test run` subcommand surface AND existing colon-namespacing in config like `verify:lint`, `verify:unit:ts`, `build:extract`). Preserves proposal intent of vp-orchestrator entry-point. The package.json script update in §6.1 also adjusts to use `bunx vp test run` directly (no `vp run test` indirection). DONE when `bunx vp run test:run` dispatches without collision.
+
+## 4. Test file import migrations
+
+- [x] 4.1 BULK-replaced `from 'bun:test'` → `from 'vitest'` across all 25 sites via single sed pass (handles both single- and double-quoted forms). Verified: 0 remaining bun:test imports; 25 vitest imports across affected files (matches scope).
+- [x] 4.2 At `packages/system/__tests__/theme.test.ts:11`: changed import names from `{ describe, expect, it, spyOn }` to `{ describe, expect, it, vi }`. At line 353: changed `spyOn(console, 'warn')` to `vi.spyOn(console, 'warn')`. Verified: only `vi.spyOn` reference remains (no bare `spyOn` in repo).
+
+## 5. Verify import-migration completeness
+
+- [x] 5.1 vp test list verified discovery clean (post-§4 imports + post-legacy-exclude).
+- [x] 5.2 vp test run executed — initial run surfaced 6 file failures in `legacy/**` (`ReferenceError: describe is not defined` — legacy tests relied on bun:test global injection, never explicitly imported describe). **In-flight fix applied**: added `test.exclude` array to `vite.config.ts test:` block including `**/legacy/**` (per CLAUDE.md "legacy/ is reference only — never installed/built/published") + Rust `target/`, Next `.next/`, `.animus/`, `.hygiene/`, `tmp/`, plus vitest defaults (node_modules, dist, cypress, .config files). **Post-fix result**: 24 test files passed (24/24), 566 tests passed (566/566), 0 failed, 1.59s. The 25-vs-24 reconciliation: `packages/_integration/__tests__/assert-no-unresolved-tokens.ts` is a HELPER file (not test entry) — vitest correctly evaluates it as imported but doesn't treat as standalone test entry. **Effective new baseline = 566/24 (NOT the 624/30 from `bun test` which included legacy noise via global-describe injection).**
+
+## 6. Package.json script updates
+
+- [x] 6.1 Root `package.json`: `"test": "bun test"` → `"test": "bunx vp test run"`. **Modified from original task spec** (was `"bunx vp run test"`) per §3.2 deviation note — direct `bunx vp test run` avoids the run.task name-collision discovered when `test` was the run.task name; both invocation paths converge on the same vp test command.
+- [x] 6.2 `packages/_integration/package.json`: `"test": "bun test"` → `"test": "bunx vp test run"`.
+
+- [x] 7.1 `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks.verify:unit:ts` command rewired to `'bunx vp test run packages/system/__tests__ packages/vite-plugin/tests packages/properties/__tests__ packages/_assertions/__tests__'` (preserves explicit unit-scope path list semantic from prior shell helper).
+- [x] 7.2 `scripts/verify/unit-ts.sh` DELETED (orchestrator-native equivalent now provided by `bunx vp test run` in run.tasks per `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` Scenario "Shell helper survives until orchestrator-native equivalent ships").
+
+- [x] 8.1 Root `CLAUDE.md` updated: line 58 (verify:unit:ts table row "What it covers" column) `bun test` → `bunx vp test run` (Vitest); also added `_assertions/__tests__` to the path list (was missing — pre-existing CLAUDE.md drift, corrected here). Line 93 (Change-Type Map row for `scripts/hygiene/**`) `bun test scripts/hygiene/` → `bunx vp test run scripts/hygiene/`. Verified `grep -n 'bun test' CLAUDE.md` returns 0 matches post-edit.
+- [x] 8.2 Change-Type Map rows referencing `verify:unit:ts` (lines 88, 96, 100, 102) are accurate as-is — task name preserved per Decision 2 in design.md.
+
+## 9. Verification gate
+
+- [x] 9.1 `bunx vp run verify:lint` exit 0 (after `vp fmt` applied to 594 files post-§4 sed migration; format drift resolved).
+- [x] 9.2 `bunx vp run verify:compile` exit 0 (initial run had exit 137 — diagnosed as cascade-kill from concurrent verify:lint failure; retry post-fmt clean).
+- [x] 9.3 `bunx vp run verify:types` exit 0.
+- [x] 9.4 `bunx vp run verify:unit:ts` exit 0; **8 files / 147 tests / 428ms** (matches §1.1 unit-scope baseline 8/147; ~2x slower than bun:test 212ms which is acceptable per design.md non-goals).
+- [x] 9.5 `bunx vp run verify:canary` exit 0.
+- [x] 9.6 `bunx vp run verify:integration` exit 0; **10 files / 136 tests / 581ms** (vp test inherited via §6.2 _integration package.json edit — emergent design pattern: scripts/verify/integration.sh dispatches via package.json test script which now uses `bunx vp test run`).
+- [x] 9.7 `bunx vp run verify` (composite) exit 0 across all 6 atomic tiers — `verify complete` on 0/8 cache hit (cache disabled).
+- [x] 9.8 `bunx vp run test:run` exit 0; **24 files / 566 tests / 1.83s** — matches CORRECTED baseline (legacy/ correctly excluded per `vite.config.ts test.exclude`; the 624/30 in §1.1 was bun-test-with-globals reading; 566 is the legitimate vitest count).
+
+## 10. Spec validation
+
+- [x] 10.1 `openspec validate migrate-test-to-vp-test --strict` → `Change 'migrate-test-to-vp-test' is valid`.
+- [x] 10.2 All 4 MODIFIED-block headers verified present in BOTH canonical (`openspec/specs/bun-test/spec.md`) AND delta (`openspec/changes/migrate-test-to-vp-test/specs/bun-test/spec.md`): "Bun native test runner", "Test file compatibility", "DOM test environment", "Binding to orchestration-architecture".
+
+## 11. Final state-sync
+
+- [x] 11.1 All §1-§10 tasks ticked with empirical results inline; in-flight notes preserved for audit trail (§3.2 task-rename, §5 legacy-exclude, §6.1 direct-vp-test invocation, §9.2 cascade-kill diagnosis, baseline correction 624→566).
+- [x] 11.2 `openspec status --change migrate-test-to-vp-test` → `Progress: 4/4 artifacts complete`; all artifacts marked `[x]` (proposal, design, specs, tasks).
+- [x] 11.3 `openspec archive migrate-test-to-vp-test --yes` ran successfully: 4 MODIFIED blocks applied to canonical `bun-test/spec.md` (`Totals: + 0, ~ 4, - 0, → 0`); change directory moved to `openspec/changes/archive/2026-05-08-migrate-test-to-vp-test/`.
+
+## 12. Post-archive verification
+
+- [x] 12.1 `openspec list --json` → `{"changes":[]}` (no active changes; A1 fully closed).
+- [x] 12.2 `openspec validate bun-test --strict` → `Specification 'bun-test' is valid`.
+- [x] 12.3 `ls openspec/changes/archive/ | grep migrate-test-to-vp-test` → `2026-05-08-migrate-test-to-vp-test` (directory exists).

+## Context
+
+This is the library-bundler slice of the vp-arc decomposition (per `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` Requirement "Follow-On Policy Decomposition", line 154: "A change rebinding the library bundler"). Six slices have shipped before this proposal; this slice closes the seventh — the last open vp-arc thread — under a phased decomposition where A2.1 closes the dispatch question and A2.2 (`migrate-build-to-vp-pack`) is reserved as a future engine-swap policy slice.
+
+Current state at proposal time:
+
+- The build dispatch already runs through `vp run build:ts` per `vite.config.ts:188-190`: `command: "bun run --filter './packages/*' build:ts"`. This task was added by `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run`.
+- Each per-package `build:ts` script invokes `tsdown && tsgo -p tsconfig.build.json`. tsdown wraps Rolldown internally; tsgo emits `.d.ts` declarations.
+- Root `package.json` `rebuild` script chains `vp run clean:full && vp run build:all` (per the `resolve-clean-surface` and `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` slices).
+- `rolldown-build/spec.md` references legacy package paths (`packages/core`, `packages/theming`, `packages/ui`) that are now archived under `legacy/`.
+- `rolldown-build/spec.md` Requirement "Shared Rolldown base config" references `rolldown.config.ts`, but reality is `tsdown.config.base.ts` + per-package `tsdown.config.ts`.
+- `rolldown-build/spec.md` Requirement "Binding to orchestration-architecture" frames vp pack as the future rebind target; this framing pre-empts engine-identity-only interpretation.
+- An empirical probe of `vp pack` in session 97 (2026-05-08) revealed that vp pack does NOT read `tsdown.config.ts` and emits `.mjs`/`.d.mts` defaults, diverging from the current `.js`/`.d.ts` consumer contract.
+
+Constraints (from `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` and `rolldown-build/spec.md`):
+
+- Rolldown SHALL remain the bundling engine (engine-identity invariant).
+- ESM SHALL remain the only emitted output format.
+- Externalization of `node_modules` SHALL continue.
+- TypeScript declaration files SHALL continue to be emitted.
+- Pre-GA risk-acceptance documentation SHALL be present per Migration Trigger Criteria Criterion B.
+
+Stakeholders: codecaaron (sole repository maintainer; Risk Acceptance signed via session-98 brainstorm directive on this proposal).
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+
+- Close the orchestration-architecture line 154 ("library bundler" rebind) requirement via spec-language alignment with the engine-identity-only interpretation.
+- Reframe `rolldown-build/spec.md` Requirement "Binding to orchestration-architecture" so that the existing `vp run build:ts` dispatch (which dispatches to `tsdown` wrapping Rolldown) IS the closure of the rebind requirement.
+- Refresh stale legacy-package references in `rolldown-build/spec.md` (Requirement "Rolldown as library bundler"): replace `packages/core`/`theming`/`ui` with the current published package set.
+- Align `rolldown-build/spec.md` Requirement "Shared Rolldown base config" with the current `tsdown.config.base.ts` shared-config surface, while preserving optionality for either wrapper's config in the future.
+- Reserve `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` (A2.2) as a future engine-swap policy slice for when vp pack matures (post-GA + bake time).
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+
+- No engine swap. `tsdown` stays as the wrapper for A2.1.
+- No `tsdown.config.ts` file edits or deletions.
+- No per-package `package.json` script changes.
+- No `CLAUDE.md` edits — the dispatch-convention statement and Atomic Tiers are already accurate for `build:*` tasks.
+- No `vite.config.ts` changes — the `build:ts` task already exists.
+- No empirical adoption of `vp pack`. The probe runs after A2.1 ships, captured to memory as A2.2 informing material.
+- No consumer-contract changes (`.js`+`.d.ts` outputs preserved).
+- No edits to `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` — per established pattern (A1 closure on `bun-test/spec.md`, A3 closure on `build-orchestration/spec.md`), each vp-arc slice closes on ITS OWN canonical spec.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Phased decomposition (A2.1 closure now + A2.2 future engine-swap)
+
+**Rationale**: The rolldown-build spec line 57 mandate "direct `vp pack` invocation" was authored before the empirical divergence between vp pack and tsdown was known (vp pack at 0.1.20 does NOT read `tsdown.config.ts`, emits `.mjs`/`.d.mts` defaults that mismatch the current consumer contract). Under engine-identity-only interpretation — which the maintainer explicitly chose in session-98 Q1 — the actual contract is Rolldown engine + ESM output + externalization + declaration emission. The wrapper is negotiable. Phased decomposition honors this interpretation: A2.1 closes the dispatch question via the existing `vp run build:ts` task; A2.2 retains the engine-swap question as a separable, deferrable concern.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+
+- **Single change with engine swap to `vp pack`**: rejected. Would force consumer-contract churn (`.js`→`.mjs`, `.d.ts`→`.d.mts` updates to `package.json exports.*` paths across all published packages) on alpha-stage software. Maintainer's Q2 motivation was "Close vp-arc to 7/7", not "Eliminate tsdown specifically".
+- **Defer A2 entirely (Option C from session 97)**: rejected. Leaves the vp-arc at 6/7 indefinitely; the dispatch-rebind work is already done (vp run build:ts exists), so the slice's actual delta is light.
+- **Empirical vp pack adoption with extension coercion (Option E from session 98 brainstorm)**: rejected. Optimizes for engine-swap at alpha-stage when the maintainer's stated motivation does not require it; takes on bundler-layer alpha-status risk for symbolic completion.
+
+### Decision 2: A2.1 absorbs the stale-reference refresh that was previously deferred to A2.2
+
+**Rationale**: The current spec text (`rolldown-build/spec.md:59`) says: "The reference refresh — updating the requirement text to enumerate the current package set ... SHALL be performed in the `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` follow-on policy change as part of the rebind." Under phased decomposition, A2.1 IS the rebind closure (line 154); deferring stale-reference refresh to A2.2 (engine swap, future, indefinite timeline) would leave the spec inconsistent until A2.2 ships. A2.1 absorbs the refresh as part of its dispatch-rebind closure.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+
+- **Keep refresh deferral text intact, refresh in A2.2**: rejected. A2.2 has no committed timeline; spec inconsistency would persist.
+- **Refresh in a separate hygiene change**: rejected. Adds another openspec change for a 6-line text edit; defeats the cognitive-overhead-reduction value test.
+
+### Decision 3: `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` retained as the named A2.2 future slice
+
+**Rationale**: The maintainer's Q1 selection ("engine-identity only") opens the option to rename the future slice; the maintainer's Q3 selection (Approach 2 phased) explicitly keeps the named migration alive. Retaining the name preserves spec history and signals the engine-swap question is still on the table when vp pack matures.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+
+- **Rename A2.2 to `swap-build-engine-to-vp-pack`**: rejected. Adds rename churn for marginal naming-clarity gain.
+- **Drop A2.2 entirely from spec text**: rejected. Removes the future engine-swap thread from spec context; would require a future change to re-introduce it.
+
+### Decision 4: No edits to `orchestration-architecture/spec.md`
+
+**Rationale**: Per the established vp-arc closure pattern, each slice closes on ITS OWN canonical spec. A1 (`migrate-test-to-vp-test`) closed on `bun-test/spec.md`. A3 (`resolve-clean-surface`) closed on `build-orchestration/spec.md`. A2.1 follows the pattern: closure on `rolldown-build/spec.md` only. The orchestration-architecture spec's slice list (lines 150-156) is a meta-statement about decomposition; it does not get edited per-slice.
+
+### Decision 5: No `CLAUDE.md` edits
+
+**Rationale**: The dispatch-convention statement already covers `build:*` tasks accurately ("vp run X is the canonical and only invocation path for every migrated tier (verify:_, build:_, hygiene)"). The Atomic Tiers table does not contain a `build:ts` row because it is not a verify tier. No edits needed.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**Risk 1**: Spec amendment may not reflect future engine-swap intent if A2.2 never ships.
+
+- **Mitigation**: A2.1's amended Requirement "Binding to orchestration-architecture" explicitly names `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` as the future engine-swap thread. If the maintainer later decides engine-swap is not desired, the future slice can be archived as "obsolete" with appropriate spec adjustments at that point.
+
+**Risk 2**: vp run dispatch overhead on `build:ts` may differ from direct `tsdown` invocation in edge cases.
+
+- **Mitigation**: This dispatch already exists and was proven by 6 prior shipped slices. A2.1 introduces no new dispatch behavior. Post-archive `vp run verify` (fast gate) confirms the baseline holds.
+
+**Risk 3**: The "rebind closure" language in the amended Requirement "Binding to orchestration-architecture" could be interpreted as foreclosing future engine-swap.
+
+- **Mitigation**: The amendment text explicitly retains `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` as a future engine-swap policy slice. The closure is of the dispatch question, not the engine question.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+The migration is reversible per the proposal's Risk Acceptance section. Order of operations within the change application:
+
+1. **Pre-flight grounding** (§1 of tasks.md): capture current spec state.
+2. **Spec MODIFIED apply** (§2): authored in this change's `specs/rolldown-build/spec.md` delta with 3 MODIFIED requirement blocks.
+3. **Validation gate** (§3): `openspec validate rebind-build-dispatch-via-vp-run --strict`.
+4. **Final state-sync** (§4): tick all tasks; status-confirm; archive.
+5. **Post-archive verification** (§5): `openspec validate rolldown-build --strict` + `vp run verify` fast gate sanity check.
+
+**Rollback strategy**: a single `git revert <merge-commit>` restores the 3 MODIFIED requirement blocks in `rolldown-build/spec.md` to their prior text. No code is touched, so no behavioral rollback is needed.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+None. The empirical probe of vp pack — sequenced AFTER A2.1 ships per maintainer's session-98 directive — runs independently and feeds A2.2's future design without blocking A2.1 closure.

+The animus monorepo's vp-arc decomposition (per `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` Requirement "Follow-On Policy Decomposition", lines 150-156) names five cutover slices. Five shipped before this proposal: `migrate-lint-to-vp-check`, `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run`, `migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint`, `finalize-biome-to-oxlint-residue`, `migrate-test-to-vp-test`, and `resolve-clean-surface`. This proposal closes the **library bundler** slice — the line in the spec reading "A change rebinding the library bundler" — under a phased decomposition: A2.1 closes the dispatch question via the existing `vp run build:ts` task, while A2.2 (`migrate-build-to-vp-pack`) is reserved as a future engine-swap policy slice for when vp pack matures.
+
+The slice is the smallest in the arc by surface area: dispatch through `vp run build:ts` was already migrated when `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` shipped (`vite.config.ts:188-190` already exists; root `rebuild` script already chains `vp run build:all`). A2.1's substantive delta is therefore spec reconciliation: aligning `rolldown-build/spec.md`'s language with the engine-identity-only interpretation that the bundler-engine identity (Rolldown) is the actual contract, while the wrapper (tsdown today, vp pack future) is negotiable. After this slice ships, the vp-arc decomposition reaches 7/7 closed slices; A2.2 remains as an explicit, separable future thread.
+
+## What Changes
+
+**Spec reconciliation on `rolldown-build/spec.md`** (3 MODIFIED requirement blocks; no behavioral change to the build pipeline):
+
+- **MODIFIED** Requirement "Rolldown as library bundler" — refresh stale legacy package references (`packages/core`, `packages/theming`, `packages/ui` are archived under `legacy/`) to the current published package set; clarify that "Rolldown" names the bundler ENGINE while the orchestrator binding (currently `tsdown` invoked via `vp run build:ts`) is the wrapper.
+- **MODIFIED** Requirement "Shared Rolldown base config" — acknowledge the current shared-config surface is `tsdown.config.base.ts` (imported by per-package `tsdown.config.ts` files); allow either wrapper's config in the future under engine-identity-only interpretation.
+- **MODIFIED** Requirement "Binding to orchestration-architecture" — replace the "future rebind to direct `vp pack` invocation" framing with engine-identity-only language: A2.1 closes orchestration-architecture line 154 via the current `vp run build:ts` dispatch (which itself dispatches to `tsdown` wrapping Rolldown). A2.2 (`migrate-build-to-vp-pack`) is reserved as a future engine-swap policy slice for when vp pack matures (post-GA + bake time). Stale-reference refresh, previously deferred to A2.2 by the spec text, is absorbed by A2.1 since A2.1 IS the rebind closure.
+
+**Unchanged**: Requirements "No Babel in build pipeline" (still 100% accurate) and "Build output equivalence" ("Rolldown build output" reads as engine-output and remains true).
+
+**No behavioral changes**:
+
+- No engine swap — `tsdown` stays. No `tsdown.config.ts` files modified or deleted.
+- No `package.json` script changes — `vp run build:ts` already dispatches to per-package `build:ts` scripts via `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run`.
+- No `CLAUDE.md` edits — the dispatch-convention statement already covers `build:*` tasks accurately.
+- No consumer-contract changes — `.js` + `.d.ts` outputs preserved.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+None.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `rolldown-build`: refresh stale legacy package references in Requirement "Rolldown as library bundler"; align Requirement "Shared Rolldown base config" with the current `tsdown.config.ts` shared-config surface; replace the "direct `vp pack` invocation" framing in Requirement "Binding to orchestration-architecture" with engine-identity-only language that closes the line-154 rebind via `vp run build:ts` dispatch and reserves `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` as a future engine-swap policy slice.
+
+## Impact
+
+**Affected code**:
+
+- `openspec/specs/rolldown-build/spec.md` (3 MODIFIED requirement blocks applied via this change's spec delta on archive)
+
+**Affected dependencies**: None.
+
+**Affected systems**:
+
+- Local build invocation: unchanged. `vp run build:ts` already dispatches to `tsdown && tsgo -p tsconfig.build.json` per package.
+- CI: unchanged. `verify:ci` continues to invoke `build:ts` via `vp run` task graph.
+- Consumer contract: unchanged. Published packages continue emitting `.js` (ESM via `type: "module"`) + `.d.ts` (via `tsgo`).
+- vp-arc state: transitions from 6/7 closed slices to 7/7 closed slices. A2.2 (`migrate-build-to-vp-pack`) remains as an explicit future engine-swap policy slice, not part of the original decomposition's closure requirement.
+
+**Verification tier set per Change-Type Map**: this touches `openspec/specs/**` only. Per CLAUDE.md, openspec changes use `openspec validate <change> --strict` instead of a verify tier. Plus a post-archive `vp run verify` (fast gate) sanity check to confirm baseline holds.
+
+## Risk Acceptance
+
+This proposal is gated by `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` Requirement "Migration Trigger Criteria" Scenario "Pre-GA cutover requires risk-acceptance" because vite-plus 0.1.20 has not reached GA per the VoidZero release channel.
+
+**Specific alpha-status exposure for this cutover slice**:
+
+- This is the LOWEST-risk slice in the arc — it ships ZERO behavioral changes. The dispatch through `vp run build:ts` already exists and was proven by the prior `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` slice.
+- The change is essentially spec reconciliation: aligning `rolldown-build/spec.md` text with the engine-identity-only interpretation explicitly chosen by the maintainer in the session-98 brainstorm (2026-05-08).
+- No consumer-visible artifact changes; no engine swap; no per-package script edits; no `CLAUDE.md` edits; no `tsdown.config.ts` edits.
+- Failure mode if the alpha-status exposure manifests: a future vp orchestrator regression could break `vp run build:ts` dispatch — but this risk EXISTS TODAY independent of this slice (the dispatch shipped in `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run`), so A2.1 does NOT introduce new exposure; it only documents the existing state.
+
+**Mitigations**:
+
+1. **Behavioral identity**: zero behavioral change. The build pipeline (`tsdown && tsgo`) executes identically pre- and post-archive.
+2. **Reversibility**: spec edits only. A single `git revert <merge-commit>` restores all 3 MODIFIED requirement blocks to their prior text.
+3. **Engine preservation**: `tsdown` stays as the wrapper; Rolldown remains the engine; declaration emission via `tsgo` is unchanged.
+4. **Future engine-swap thread is preserved**: A2.2 (`migrate-build-to-vp-pack`) is explicitly reserved in the amended spec text as a future policy slice; engine swap is not pre-empted, just deferred.
+5. **Empirical probe of vp pack runs AFTER A2.1 ships**: per session-98 user direction ("Then let's see if it can do what we want"), the probe results are captured to memory as A2.2 informing material, not blocking A2.1.
+
+**Maintainer sign-off**: codecaaron (repository maintainer) authorized this slice via session-98 brainstorm (2026-05-08), explicitly answering Q1 "spec strictness" as "Engine-identity only" and Q2 "A2 motivation" as "Close vp-arc to 7/7", and selecting Approach 2 (phased) with the directive "Approach 2 - Then let's see if it can do what we want." Maintainer accepts alpha-status risk as a known-and-acceptable tradeoff given the slice ships zero behavioral changes.
+
+This signed risk acceptance satisfies pre-GA Criterion B per `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` Requirement "Migration Trigger Criteria".

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Rolldown as library bundler
+
+Each published TypeScript package in the active build graph (`packages/extract`, `packages/system`, `packages/properties`, `packages/vite-plugin`, `packages/next-plugin`, and the private workspace `packages/_assertions`) SHALL use Rolldown as the bundling engine to produce ES module bundles. The orchestrator binding (currently `tsdown`, which wraps Rolldown internally) SHALL handle TypeScript and JSX compilation natively without Babel; declaration emission SHALL be handled by `tsgo` (TypeScript 7 native preview) per the canonical `build:ts` per-package invocation (`tsdown && tsgo -p tsconfig.build.json`).
+
+#### Scenario: System package build
+
+- **WHEN** `vp run build:ts` executes (which dispatches to `bun run --filter './packages/*' build:ts`)
+- **THEN** Rolldown (via tsdown) produces ES module output for each package's configured entries
+- **AND** all `node_modules` are externalized from the bundle
+- **AND** the output extension follows the package's `type` field (`.js` for `type: "module"` packages, the canonical animus configuration)
+
+#### Scenario: TypeScript declaration output
+
+- **WHEN** a published package's `build:ts` script completes
+- **THEN** `dist/<entry>.d.ts` declaration files are generated by `tsgo -p tsconfig.build.json`
+- **AND** the declaration extension is `.d.ts` (not `.d.mts`), preserving the consumer-visible `package.json exports.types` contract
+
+### Requirement: Shared Rolldown base config
+
+A shared bundler base configuration SHALL be defined at the repository root for the Rolldown-based build pipeline. Per-package configs SHALL extend the shared base with minimal overrides (entry points, externals). The current shared base is `tsdown.config.base.ts` (tsdown wraps Rolldown internally), consumed by per-package `tsdown.config.ts` files via the `createConfig()` helper. Under engine-identity-only interpretation per Requirement "Binding to orchestration-architecture", the shared-config surface MAY be replaced by an alternative wrapper's equivalent (e.g., `vite.config.ts pack:` blocks for `vp pack`, or `rolldown.config.ts` for direct Rolldown invocation) in a future engine-swap slice provided the output is functionally equivalent.
+
+#### Scenario: Per-package config
+
+- **WHEN** examining a package's `tsdown.config.ts`
+- **THEN** it imports and extends the root shared `tsdown.config.base.ts` via the `createConfig()` helper
+- **THEN** package-specific config is no more than ~10 lines (typically just an `entry: [...]` array; format/dts/clean/outDir/target/platform inherited from the shared base)
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The library bundler contract — Rolldown as the bundling engine, ES-module output, TypeScript and JSX compilation without Babel, externalization of `node_modules`, declaration emission — defined in this spec SHALL be realized through the orchestrator binding designated by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding invokes `tsdown` (which uses Rolldown internally) per package via the orchestrator's task graph: `vp run build:ts` (defined in `vite.config.ts run.tasks`) dispatches `bun run --filter './packages/*' build:ts`, and each per-package `build:ts` script invokes `tsdown && tsgo -p tsconfig.build.json` (tsdown emits ES module bundles; tsgo emits `.d.ts` declarations).
+
+The `orchestration-architecture` capability's "Follow-On Policy Decomposition" requirement enumerating "A change rebinding the library bundler" is satisfied by THIS capability's binding through `vp run build:ts`. The bundler-engine identity (Rolldown), the output format (ES module), the externalization contract, and the declaration-emission requirement are preserved. Under engine-identity-only interpretation, the wrapper (currently `tsdown`) is negotiable as long as engine identity is preserved; the wrapper choice is an orchestrator-binding concern, not a spec-level invariant of this capability.
+
+A future engine-swap policy slice — `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` — is RESERVED for replacing the wrapper from `tsdown` to `vp pack` when vp pack reaches GA and accumulates sufficient bake time. That future slice SHALL preserve the bundler-engine identity (Rolldown), the output format (ES module), the externalization contract, and the declaration-emission requirement. The future slice MAY replace `tsdown.config.ts` files with `vp pack` configuration (CLI args, per-package `vite.config.ts pack:` blocks, or the orchestrator's equivalent config surface) provided the output is functionally equivalent and the consumer-visible package contract (`.js` + `.d.ts` exports paths in `package.json exports`) is either preserved or migrated explicitly with consumer-side coordination.
+
+#### Scenario: Rolldown engine identity is preserved through current binding
+
+- **WHEN** `vp run build:ts` executes against any published package in the active build graph
+- **THEN** the underlying bundling engine is Rolldown (via tsdown wrapper)
+- **AND** ES-module output is emitted
+- **AND** all `node_modules` are externalized from the bundle
+- **AND** TypeScript declaration files are emitted (via tsgo)
+
+#### Scenario: Future engine-swap preserves engine identity
+
+- **WHEN** the future `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` cutover slice rebinds the library-build invocation from `tsdown` to `vp pack`
+- **THEN** the underlying bundling engine continues to be Rolldown (vp pack wraps Rolldown internally)
+- **AND** ES-module output continues to be the only emitted format
+- **AND** all `node_modules` continue to be externalized from the bundle
+- **AND** TypeScript declaration files continue to be emitted
+- **AND** the consumer-visible package contract (`.js` + `.d.ts` exports paths) is preserved or migrated with consumer-side coordination

+## Context
+
+This is the cleaning-surface slice of the vp-arc decomposition (per `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` Requirement "Follow-On Policy Decomposition", line 156: "A change rebinding (or explicitly preserving shell) the cleaning surface"). Five slices have shipped before this proposal; with this slice closed, only the bundler slice (`migrate-build-to-vp-pack`) remains.
+
+Current state at proposal time:
+
+- Root `package.json` `scripts` contains 3 cleaning entries — all dispatch `rm -rf` commands:
+  - `clean: rm -rf packages/*/dist packages/extract/target`
+  - `clean:light: rm -rf node_modules/.vite packages/*/dist`
+  - `clean:full: rm -rf node_modules/.vite packages/*/dist packages/extract/target packages/extract/*.node`
+- Root `package.json` `rebuild` script chains: `bun run clean:full && vp run build:all`.
+- No per-package `clean` scripts exist; cleaning is a root-level concern.
+- vp does NOT provide a built-in `clean` command (verified via `bunx vp clean` → `Command 'clean' not found`).
+- `build-orchestration/spec.md` Requirement "Clean command" mandates the script live in root `package.json` — needs MODIFIED to reflect new invocation surface.
+
+Constraints (from `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` and `build-orchestration/spec.md`):
+
+- Cleaning behavior SHALL be preserved exactly (same `rm -rf` paths).
+- Loud-fail invariants do NOT apply (clean tiers are not verification atomic tiers; preconditions don't fire).
+- `.tool-versions` bun pin SHALL be preserved.
+- The CLAUDE.md dispatch convention ("`bun run <migrated-name>` returns 'script not found' by design — there is no transparent alias") SHALL be honored.
+
+Stakeholders: codecaaron (sole repository maintainer; Risk Acceptance signed via session-explicit directive on this proposal).
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+
+- Move the 3 clean-related dispatch entries from root `package.json` `scripts` to `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks`, completing the convergence on vp run as the canonical orchestrator surface.
+- Preserve cleaning behavior byte-for-byte (same `rm -rf` paths).
+- Update the `rebuild` chained script to keep working post-migration (`vp run clean:full && vp run build:all`).
+- Update `build-orchestration/spec.md` Requirement "Clean command" to reflect the new invocation surface.
+- Update `CLAUDE.md` dispatch-convention line to remove `clean*` from the "unmigrated scripts" list.
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+
+- Introducing a vp-native cleaning capability (vp does not provide one; this proposal is a dispatch rebind, not a tool replacement).
+- Changing what gets cleaned — preserved exactly.
+- Adding per-package `clean` scripts (they don't exist; introducing them would expand scope).
+- Migrating other unmigrated scripts (`compile`, `verify:compile:tsc-fallback`, `dev:showcase`, `release`) — each is its own follow-on slice.
+- Renaming the `clean` / `clean:light` / `clean:full` task identities.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: `rm -rf` is preserved as the cleaning mechanism
+
+**Rationale**: vp does NOT provide a built-in `clean` command. The arc's job is dispatch-rebinding, not cleaning-mechanism redesign. Wrapping the existing `rm -rf` commands in vp run tasks preserves behavior exactly while completing the orchestrator-surface convergence.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+
+- Add a vp-native cleaning helper: rejected (out of scope; the upstream tool doesn't ship one).
+- Use a Node-level cleaning library (e.g., `rimraf`): rejected (introduces a runtime dependency for a 3-line shell op; misaligned with bun-native repo philosophy).
+- Rely on per-package clean scripts via `bun run --filter`: rejected (root cleaning targets are repo-level, not package-level; would expand scope to add scripts to ~10 packages).
+
+### Decision 2: Per-package `clean` scripts are NOT introduced
+
+**Rationale**: The current convention is root-only cleaning (no per-package `clean` scripts exist). Introducing per-package scripts would expand the migration surface, shift the cleaning-surface ownership model, and require new orchestration-architecture invariants. This proposal preserves the existing root-only model.
+
+### Decision 3: `package.json` clean scripts are DELETED (not preserved as forwarding wrappers)
+
+**Rationale**: Per the CLAUDE.md dispatch convention: "Dispatch: vp run X is the canonical and only invocation path for every migrated tier ... bun run <migrated-name> returns 'script not found' by design — there is no transparent alias." Preserving the `package.json` entries as forwarding wrappers would violate the convention.
+
+### Decision 4: The `rebuild` script is UPDATED (not deleted)
+
+**Rationale**: `rebuild` is a developer-convenience composite (`clean:full && build:all`) that doesn't have a vp run equivalent. Keeping it in `package.json` preserves the convenience while updating its internals to use vp run for both halves of the chain.
+
+### Decision 5: `build-orchestration/spec.md` Requirement "Clean command" is MODIFIED, not REMOVED
+
+**Rationale**: The cleaning capability still exists; only its invocation surface changes. MODIFIED preserves the requirement's history while updating its body and scenario to reflect the new invocation.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**Risk 1**: Developers' muscle memory `bun run clean` returns "script not found" post-migration; could surprise.
+
+- **Mitigation**: This IS the documented dispatch convention from CLAUDE.md (already established by prior slices for `verify:*` tasks). Surprise is one-time and self-documenting.
+
+**Risk 2**: A future change adding per-package `clean` scripts could conflict with the root-level migration.
+
+- **Mitigation**: This proposal does NOT introduce per-package clean; if a future change wants to, it MUST address the integration with root-level clean explicitly.
+
+**Risk 3**: vp run dispatch overhead may make `clean` slightly slower than direct `rm -rf`.
+
+- **Mitigation**: `rm -rf` runtime is dominated by filesystem I/O, not process startup; the dispatch overhead is negligible vs typical clean times. Smoke-tested in tasks.md §6.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+The migration is reversible per the proposal's Risk Acceptance section. Order of operations within the change application:
+
+1. **Pre-flight grounding** (§1 of tasks.md): capture baseline.
+2. **vite.config.ts run.tasks additions** (§2): add 3 entries with byte-identical commands.
+3. **Root package.json edits** (§3): delete 3 clean scripts; update `rebuild`.
+4. **Spec MODIFIED apply** (§4): authored in this change's `specs/build-orchestration/spec.md` delta.
+5. **CLAUDE.md edits** (§5): remove `clean*` from the dispatch-convention parenthetical.
+6. **Verification gate** (§6): run change-type-map verify-set + smoke test.
+7. **Spec validation** (§7): `openspec validate resolve-clean-surface --strict`.
+8. **Final state-sync** (§8): tick all tasks; status-confirm; archive.
+9. **Post-archive verification** (§9): canonical strict-valid; archive dir exists.
+
+**Rollback strategy**: a single `git revert <merge-commit>` restores the 3 `package.json` clean scripts, removes the 3 vite.config.ts run.tasks entries, restores the `rebuild` script, and reverts the spec MODIFIED block.
+

+## Why
+
+The animus monorepo's vp-arc decomposition (per `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` lines 150-156) names five cutover slices. Four shipped before this proposal: `migrate-lint-to-vp-check`, `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run`, `migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint`, `finalize-biome-to-oxlint-residue`, and `migrate-test-to-vp-test`. This proposal closes the **cleaning surface** slice — the line in the spec reading "A change rebinding (or explicitly preserving shell) the cleaning surface."
+
+The slice is the lowest-risk in the arc: it just dispatches `rm -rf` commands. Behavior is preserved exactly; only the invocation surface changes from `bun run clean*` to `bunx vp run clean*`, completing the convergence on the single-orchestrator-surface invariant. After this slice ships, only the library bundler slice (`migrate-build-to-vp-pack`) remains, which has architectural depth deferred to a focused follow-on session.
+
+## What Changes
+
+**Cleaning surface rebind** (preserves all cleaning behavior):
+
+- ADD 3 entries to `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks`: `clean`, `clean:light`, `clean:full` — each with the existing `rm -rf` command verbatim.
+- DELETE 3 corresponding entries from root `package.json` `scripts`. Per the CLAUDE.md dispatch convention, `bun run <migrated-name>` returns "script not found" by design — explicit failure, not silent breakage.
+- UPDATE root `package.json` `rebuild` script: `bun run clean:full && vp run build:all` → `vp run clean:full && vp run build:all` (the chained `bun run clean:full` won't work post-deletion).
+- Update `CLAUDE.md` dispatch-convention line to remove `clean*` from the "unmigrated scripts" list.
+
+**Spec updates**:
+
+- `build-orchestration` — MODIFIED on Requirement "Clean command" (invocation surface: `bun run clean` → `bunx vp run clean`; behavior preserved).
+- `orchestration-architecture` — NO MODIFY (the rebind succeeds under preservation invariants without spec-text change).
+
+No breaking changes to what gets cleaned. No new vp-native cleaning capability introduced — vp does NOT provide a built-in `clean`; this slice WRAPS the existing `rm -rf` invocations under the orchestrator's task graph.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+None.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `build-orchestration`: rebind cleaning-surface invocation from root `package.json` `clean*` scripts to `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` clean tasks; preserve cleaning targets and behavior; update Requirement "Clean command" scenarios to reference `bunx vp run clean` invocation.
+
+## Impact
+
+**Affected code**:
+
+- `vite.config.ts` (3 new run.tasks entries)
+- Root `package.json` (3 script deletions + 1 script update)
+- `build-orchestration/spec.md` (1 MODIFIED requirement)
+- `CLAUDE.md` (dispatch-convention line update)
+
+**Affected dependencies**: None.
+
+**Affected systems**:
+
+- Local cleaning invocation: `bun run clean` / `bun run clean:light` / `bun run clean:full` → `bunx vp run clean` / `bunx vp run clean:light` / `bunx vp run clean:full`.
+- CI: no changes (CI does not invoke clean tiers).
+- The chained `rebuild` script is updated in-place to keep working post-migration.
+
+**Verification tier set per Change-Type Map**: this touches `vite.config.ts` run.tasks + a spec + CLAUDE.md. Recommended set: `verify:lint && verify:compile && verify` plus an explicit smoke test (`bunx vp run clean:light` removes dist, rebuild restores).
+
+## Risk Acceptance
+
+This proposal is gated by `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` Requirement "Migration Trigger Criteria" Scenario "Pre-GA cutover requires risk-acceptance" because vite-plus 0.1.20 has not reached GA per the VoidZero release channel.
+
+**Specific alpha-status exposure for this cutover slice**:
+
+- This is the LOWEST-risk slice in the arc — it dispatches `rm -rf` commands unchanged through the vp orchestrator.
+- The only failure mode introduced by the rebind is `bun run clean*` returning "script not found" — an explicit failure mode, not silent breakage.
+- vp run task dispatch is already proven by four prior shipped slices (`migrate-lint-to-vp-check`, `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run`, `migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint`, `migrate-test-to-vp-test`) — the dispatch surface itself is not the new variable here.
+
+**Mitigations**:
+
+1. **Behavioral identity**: `rm -rf` commands are byte-identical between the old `package.json` scripts and the new `vite.config.ts run.tasks` entries; what gets cleaned is preserved exactly.
+2. **Reversibility**: localized edits to `vite.config.ts` + root `package.json` + one spec + one doc line; revertable via a single revert-commit.
+3. **Smoke test**: §6 of tasks.md gates archive on `bunx vp run clean:light` + rebuild round-trip, empirically validating the dispatch surface works.
+4. **Explicit failure on muscle memory**: developers running `bun run clean` post-migration get `script not found` (CLAUDE.md dispatch convention) — no silent skip, no partial cleaning, no degraded state.
+
+**Maintainer sign-off**: codecaaron (repository maintainer) authorized this slice via session-explicit directive ("clean service is probably the RM ... I would like to to get all of the the RMR like anything that we're doing standard and and wonky in our package.json like I that should be clean at the like at the baseline"), accepting alpha-status risk as a known-and-acceptable tradeoff given the slice's minimal exposure.
+
+This signed risk acceptance satisfies pre-GA Criterion B per `orchestration-architecture/spec.md` Requirement "Migration Trigger Criteria".

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Clean command
+
+The root orchestrator's task graph (currently `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` per the `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` binding) SHALL contain a `clean` task that removes all build artifacts, returning the repo to a pre-build state. The task's command MAY use `rm -rf` directly until vp ships a native cleaning capability that preserves all current cleaning targets.
+
+#### Scenario: Clean all artifacts
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bunx vp run clean` from the repository root
+- **THEN** all `packages/*/dist/` directories are removed
+- **THEN** `packages/extract/target/` (Rust build cache) is removed
+- **THEN** no source files or configuration files are affected

+## Context
+
+The `bun-workspace` capability's active spec at `openspec/specs/bun-workspace/spec.md` makes five normative or scenario-level claims referencing `bun.lockb` (Bun's older binary lockfile format). The pinned Bun version (`.tool-versions: bun 1.3.11`) emits `bun.lock` (text format). The root `CLAUDE.md` carries one matching reference in a developer-facing instruction. None of the requirements describe behavior that depends on the lockfile's serialization format; the references are nominal (naming the file that `bun install` produces).
+
+The drift likely entered when the bun-workspace spec was authored against an earlier Bun release. Subsequent migrations (TS7 adoption, oxlint, vp-run, etc.) did not surface the discrepancy because no requirement is gated on the filename. The lockfile on disk in this repo is `bun.lock`; `bun.lockb` does not exist.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+
+- Replace the 5 active-spec references and 1 root-CLAUDE.md reference to `bun.lockb` with `bun.lock`
+- Preserve every requirement's behavior, scenarios, and structural relationships
+- Produce a paper-trailed change archivable by the standard openspec workflow
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+
+- Modifying archived openspec changes (`openspec/changes/archive/*/`) — historical records remain as-is per the legacy/openspec convention
+- Changing behavior or adding/removing requirements
+- Auditing or modifying references to `bun.lockb` in legacy package CLAUDE.md files (those describe legacy packages and are out of scope for the active spec)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision: Use MODIFIED for every affected requirement, with full content
+
+The four affected requirements (`Bun as package manager`, `Simplified root scripts`, `No competing orchestration tools`, `Binding to orchestration-architecture`) are each rewritten in full under `## MODIFIED Requirements` in the spec delta. Per openspec semantics, MODIFIED replaces the entire requirement block at archive time; partial content silently loses detail.
+
+Alternative considered: a "patch" style change listing only the affected sentences. Rejected because openspec's MODIFIED operator does not support partial replacement — partial blocks would erase the rest of each requirement on archive.
+
+### Decision: Edit root CLAUDE.md directly outside the spec delta
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` is project-level user instructions, not under openspec governance. The single `bun.lockb` reference there is updated as part of this change's task list but does not appear in the spec delta. The task list records the edit so the change's paper trail is complete.
+
+Alternative considered: leaving CLAUDE.md untouched and tracking the drift separately. Rejected because the user explicitly requested both fixed in one pass.
+
+### Decision: Preserve original requirement order
+
+The MODIFIED block lists requirements in the same relative order they appear in the source spec, per the openspec-modified-semantics convention that sibling order matters across archive.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+- [Risk: archive-time content loss if MODIFIED blocks omit scenarios] → Mitigation: spec delta copies each requirement block verbatim from the source spec, edits only the lockfile filename token, and includes every original scenario.
+- [Risk: future spec drift on the same axis] → Mitigation: low — the lockfile filename is a Bun-controlled identifier; if Bun changes it again, the same erratum process applies. No mechanism prevents drift entirely.

+## Why
+
+The active `bun-workspace` spec asserts that `bun install` produces a `bun.lockb` lockfile, but the pinned Bun version (`.tool-versions: bun 1.3.11`) emits `bun.lock` (text format). This is a factual erratum in the spec, not a capability change. Correcting it brings normative claims in line with observable reality before the `next` branch merges to `main`, so future readers and audits aren't misled.
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Replace 5 occurrences of `bun.lockb` with `bun.lock` in `openspec/specs/bun-workspace/spec.md` (the active spec)
+- Replace 1 occurrence of `bun.lockb` with `bun.lock` in root `CLAUDE.md`
+- No code changes, no behavior changes, no breaking changes
+- Archived `openspec/changes/archive/*/` references are NOT rewritten (historical record per the legacy/openspec convention)
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+None.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `bun-workspace`: Requirement assertions about the lockfile artifact name are updated to reflect actual bun output (`bun.lock` rather than `bun.lockb`). No requirements are added or removed; only the noun referring to the lockfile file is corrected.
+
+## Impact
+
+- Documentation/spec-only change
+- Active spec: `openspec/specs/bun-workspace/spec.md`
+- Root user instructions: `CLAUDE.md`
+- Zero runtime, build, test, or CI effect
+- Knip / vp / oxlint behavior unchanged

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Bun as package manager
+
+The monorepo SHALL use Bun as the sole package manager. `bun install` SHALL resolve all workspace dependencies and produce a `bun.lock` lockfile. No other package manager lockfiles (yarn.lock, package-lock.json) SHALL exist in the repository.
+
+#### Scenario: Clean install
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun install` from the repository root
+- **THEN** all workspace packages and their dependencies are installed, and `bun.lock` is created
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace dependency resolution
+
+- **WHEN** `@animus-ui/theming` declares a dependency on `@animus-ui/core`
+- **THEN** Bun resolves it to the local workspace package (not a registry version)
+
+### Requirement: Simplified root scripts
+
+The root `package.json` `scripts` block SHALL be split between MIGRATED tasks (defined in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks`, ABSENT from `package.json` `scripts`) and UNMIGRATED tasks (PRESENT in `package.json` `scripts`, NOT migrated to vp).
+
+Migrated tasks: every `verify:*` (atomic tiers + composite orchestrators), `build:*` (build:all, build:extract, build:ts, build:showcase, rebuild), and `hygiene`. After migration, NONE of these names appear in `package.json` `scripts`; their canonical invocation is `vp run <task>`.
+
+Unmigrated tasks: `clean`, `clean:light`, `clean:full` (destructive shells, must always execute); `dev:showcase` (long-running watch); `test` (bun test, future migration); `lint`, `format`, `check`, `check:fix` (biome wrappers, separate future migration); `release` (one-shot release.sh); `deploy:showcase` (one-shot deploy). These keep their `package.json` entries and `bun run X` invocation surface.
+
+#### Scenario: Root script inventory
+
+- **WHEN** examining root `package.json` `scripts`
+- **THEN** tier-related migrated names (`verify:*`, `build:*`, `hygiene`, composite orchestrators) DO NOT appear in `scripts`
+- **AND** unmigrated entries (`clean*`, `dev:showcase`, `test`, `lint`, `format`, `check`, `check:fix`, `release`, `deploy:showcase`) DO appear with their existing command bodies
+- **AND** `bun.lock`-related operations and `--filter` ad-hoc dispatch remain bun-native
+- **AND** no references to yarn, npx, nx, lerna, or jest exist in any script
+
+### Requirement: No competing orchestration tools
+
+The repository SHALL NOT depend on multiple competing task-graph orchestration tools simultaneously. Vite+ (`vp` CLI) is the designated orchestrator. NX, Lerna, Turborepo, Moon, or equivalent monorepo orchestration tools SHALL NOT be installed alongside Vite+. Their configuration files (`nx.json`, `lerna.json`, `turbo.json`, `moon.yml`) SHALL NOT exist unless one of them replaces Vite+ in a future rebind change.
+
+Bun retains its identity as the package manager and workspace resolver — Bun's `bun install`, `bun.lock`, and `--filter` operations are NOT considered competing orchestration tools because Bun's role and Vite+'s role are non-overlapping (package manager vs task-graph orchestrator).
+
+#### Scenario: No competing orchestrator configs
+
+- **WHEN** listing root configuration files
+- **THEN** Vite+'s configuration (`vite.config.ts` or equivalent) is the only task-graph-orchestrator configuration file present
+- **AND** `nx.json`, `lerna.json`, `turbo.json`, `moon.yml` do NOT exist
+- **AND** `package.json` `devDependencies` does not contain entries for `nx`, `@nrwl/*`, `lerna`, `turbo`, `@moonrepo/*`, or any equivalent orchestrator other than `vite-plus`
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The script-execution and workspace-resolution surfaces defined in this spec are realized through the orchestrator binding designated by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding uses `bun` exclusively (`bun install`, `bun run`, `bun run --filter`, `bun test`). A future rebind to a different orchestrator (e.g., Vite+ via the `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` follow-on policy change) SHALL preserve every requirement in this spec that is not explicitly modified by the rebind change.
+
+The package-manager identity (Bun) and workspace-resolution mechanism (Bun's workspaces feature) SHALL remain owned by this spec regardless of orchestrator rebind. The orchestration semantics — specifically, the choice of which CLI dispatches tasks across the workspace — are owned by `orchestration-architecture` and may move out of `bun run`'s purview when a rebind lands.
+
+#### Scenario: Bun remains the package manager after orchestrator rebind
+
+- **WHEN** a cutover follow-on rebinds the orchestrator (e.g., to `vp run`)
+- **THEN** `bun install` continues to resolve workspace dependencies
+- **AND** `bun.lock` continues to be the lockfile of record
+- **AND** the workspace topology defined in this spec is preserved

+## Context
+
+This change closes the lifecycle of the `adopt-typescript-7-tsgo` soak-window fallback. The implementation cleanup shipped in commit 6c7475b ("Down") on branch `next`:
+
+- 8 per-package `compile:tsc-fallback` scripts removed
+- Root `verify:compile:tsc-fallback` script removed
+- Root `compile` script removed (redundant with `vp run verify:compile`)
+- `typescript@6.0.3` devDep removed
+- CLAUDE.md prose tightened (TypeScript Implementations table area + dispatch convention line)
+- `scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh` retained as re-runnable methodology encoder
+
+`openspec/specs/bun-workspace/spec.md` Requirement "Simplified root scripts" still lists those scripts as live unmigrated entries — drift introduced by the prior commit, now closed by this change.
+
+Stakeholders: codecaaron (sole maintainer; already committed the implementation work; explicitly directed "propose as a change and close it out").
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+
+- Reconcile `bun-workspace/spec.md` Requirement "Simplified root scripts" to the post-commit state of root `package.json` `scripts` with respect to the three scripts retired by 6c7475b (`compile`, `compile:tsc-fallback`, `verify:compile:tsc-fallback`).
+- Preserve every other invariant in the requirement (migrated/unmigrated split, the inventory scenario shape, the bun-native operations rule, the no-yarn/npx/nx/lerna/jest rule).
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+
+- Reconciling other unrelated drift in the same requirement. The unmigrated-tasks paragraph still lists `clean*` as unmigrated (migrated by `resolve-clean-surface`) and `lint`/`format`/`check`/`check:fix` as biome wrappers (migrated to oxlint by `migrate-hygiene-cascade-to-oxlint`). These are pre-existing drift not introduced by 6c7475b; reconciling them belongs in a separate follow-on change so each historical migration owns its own spec-sync.
+- Amending `typescript-toolchain/spec.md`. See § Decisions below for the rationale.
+- Touching code, CLAUDE.md, or other docs — those edits shipped in 6c7475b.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: Only the tsc-fallback-introduced drift is fixed in this change
+
+**Rationale**: The proposal frames this as "post-soak spec amendment closing out the tsc-fallback lifecycle." Narrowing the MODIFIED block to ONLY the tsc-fallback references keeps the change's identity tight and matches commit 6c7475b's authored scope. Each unrelated drift item came from a different shipped change and should be reconciled in its own follow-on for traceability.
+
+**Alternatives considered**:
+- Wide scope (reconcile all unmigrated-list drift in one MODIFIED block): rejected. The change's identity becomes "audit and reconcile multiple migrations' spec-sync oversights" which is a different change. Would need a different name and richer proposal framing.
+- Defer entirely (don't ship retire-tsc-fallback-soak; bundle into a future audit change): rejected. The user explicitly asked to close out this work; deferring contradicts the user's directive.
+
+### Decision 2: `typescript-toolchain/spec.md` is NOT amended
+
+**Rationale**: Two requirements in that spec touch the soak conceptually, but neither is wrong post-cleanup:
+
+- **Requirement "Soak Path for Type-Check Implementation Swaps"** (lines 103-130 of `typescript-toolchain/spec.md`) is GENERIC future-migration policy. The phrase "e.g., `verify:compile:tsc-fallback`" is an illustrative example, not a claim of current state. The policy still applies to any future canonical type-check swap.
+- **Requirement "Version Pinning Policy"** (lines 61-80) is bifurcated: the generic policy ("canonical TypeScript implementations SHALL be exact-pinned") still applies to `@typescript/native-preview`. The typescript-specific bullet ("`typescript`: the JavaScript reference compiler used for declaration emit") is dormant — typescript is not currently installed — but the conditional rule fires if typescript is reinstalled. The scenario "TypeScript version is exact-pinned" is vacuously satisfied (no typescript = no version to validate). Leaving the conditional policy in place preserves the constraint that if/when typescript returns to devDeps, it must be exact-pinned.
+
+### Decision 3: `dts-parity.sh` is preserved (not edited, not deleted)
+
+**Rationale**: Per the prior commit, `scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh` is retained as re-runnable scaffolding. The `typescript-toolchain/spec.md` Scenario "dts-parity.sh is reusable" still describes the script's behavior accurately. No spec change needed.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+**Risk 1**: The narrow scope leaves known drift in place (`clean*`, biome wrappers, `rebuild` placement). A reader of the spec post-archive may assume the entire unmigrated list is accurate.
+
+- **Mitigation**: This design.md documents the known drift explicitly. A follow-on change can address the remaining drift; archiving this change does not regress accuracy on any axis — it strictly improves the spec by removing 3 stale references.
+
+**Risk 2**: A future migration could touch this requirement again before the follow-on drift-fix ships, requiring careful MODIFIED merging.
+
+- **Mitigation**: openspec MODIFIED semantics replace full content; sibling order matters. Future migrations editing this requirement will see the post-retire-tsc-fallback-soak state as canonical and apply their delta from there.
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+This change is spec-amendment-only. No code, no config, no dependency changes. Order of operations within the change application:
+
+1. **Pre-flight grounding** (§1 of tasks.md): verify commit 6c7475b is in HEAD history, root pkg.json contains no `compile`/`compile:tsc-fallback`/`verify:compile:tsc-fallback`, per-package files contain no `compile:tsc-fallback`, current bun-workspace/spec.md still contains the stale references.
+2. **Spec MODIFIED authoring** is already done in this change's `specs/bun-workspace/spec.md` delta.
+3. **Validation gate** (§2 of tasks.md): `openspec validate retire-tsc-fallback-soak --strict` must pass.
+4. **Final state-sync + archive** (§3): tick all tasks; archive via openspec-archive-change skill; fall back to `--skip-specs` + manual Edit if archive aborts on MODIFIED per the known `feedback_openspec_archive_modified_workaround` memory.
+5. **Post-archive verification** (§4): confirm canonical `bun-workspace/spec.md` no longer contains the 3 retired script names; archive directory exists at `openspec/changes/archive/YYYY-MM-DD-retire-tsc-fallback-soak/`.
+
+**Rollback strategy**: `git revert <merge-commit>` restores the MODIFIED state to the canonical `bun-workspace/spec.md`. Trivial.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+None.

+## Why
+
+The `adopt-typescript-7-tsgo` migration shipped a soak-window fallback (`verify:compile:tsc-fallback` + per-package `compile:tsc-fallback` + `typescript@6.0.3` devDep) to enable ad-hoc parity checks while `tsgo` baked. Tsgo has been stable for the full soak window and the implementation cleanup landed in commit 6c7475b ("Down") on branch `next`: the 8 per-package fallback scripts, the root verify orchestrator, the redundant root `compile` workspace-filter alias, and the `typescript@6.0.3` devDep are all removed. This change reconciles `bun-workspace/spec.md` to reflect the post-cleanup state of root `package.json` scripts.
+
+## What Changes
+
+**Spec amendments** (no code changes — code shipped in 6c7475b):
+
+- `bun-workspace` — MODIFIED on Requirement "Simplified root scripts" — remove three now-defunct scripts from the unmigrated-tasks paragraph and the "Root script inventory" scenario: `compile` (workspace-filter ad-hoc alias), `compile:tsc-fallback`, and `verify:compile:tsc-fallback` (soak-window fallback set).
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+
+None.
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+- `bun-workspace`: tightens Requirement "Simplified root scripts" to drop references to three retired scripts; preserves the migrated/unmigrated split invariant and all other unmigrated-task references unchanged.
+
+## Impact
+
+**Affected code**: none — this change is post-fact spec reconciliation against work already shipped in commit 6c7475b.
+
+**Affected dependencies**: none — `typescript@6.0.3` removal landed in the prior commit.
+
+**Affected systems**:
+
+- `bun-workspace/spec.md` Requirement "Simplified root scripts" — paragraph and one scenario tightened.
+- No other specs touched. See `design.md` § "Specs assessed but not amended" for justification on `typescript-toolchain/spec.md` non-amendment.
+
+**Verification tier set per Change-Type Map**: this touches only `openspec/specs/**`. Per `CLAUDE.md` Change-Type Map: "openspec/** — use `openspec validate <change>` instead". No `vp run verify` tier required.
+
+**Reversibility**: trivial via spec re-edit (single MODIFIED block).

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Simplified root scripts
+
+The root `package.json` `scripts` block SHALL be split between MIGRATED tasks (defined in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks`, ABSENT from `package.json` `scripts`) and UNMIGRATED tasks (PRESENT in `package.json` `scripts`, NOT migrated to vp).
+
+Migrated tasks: every `verify:*` (atomic tiers + composite orchestrators), `build:*` (build:all, build:extract, build:ts, build:showcase, rebuild), and `hygiene`. After migration, NONE of these names appear in `package.json` `scripts`; their canonical invocation is `vp run <task>`.
+
+Unmigrated tasks: `clean`, `clean:light`, `clean:full` (destructive shells, must always execute); `dev:showcase` (long-running watch); `test` (bun test, future migration); `lint`, `format`, `check`, `check:fix` (biome wrappers, separate future migration); `release` (one-shot release.sh); `deploy:showcase` (one-shot deploy). These keep their `package.json` entries and `bun run X` invocation surface.
+
+#### Scenario: Root script inventory
+
+- **WHEN** examining root `package.json` `scripts`
+- **THEN** tier-related migrated names (`verify:*`, `build:*`, `hygiene`, composite orchestrators) DO NOT appear in `scripts`
+- **AND** unmigrated entries (`clean*`, `dev:showcase`, `test`, `lint`, `format`, `check`, `check:fix`, `release`, `deploy:showcase`) DO appear with their existing command bodies
+- **AND** `bun.lockb`-related operations and `--filter` ad-hoc dispatch remain bun-native
+- **AND** no references to yarn, npx, nx, lerna, or jest exist in any script

+## Context
+
+System props in Animus resolve their accepted value types through a chain: `Prop` config → `ScaleValue` → `PropertyValues`. When a prop references a theme scale (e.g., `scale: 'space'`), the type narrows to `keyof Theme['space']` plus CSS globals. The `IsEmpty<Scale>` check controls whether `PropertyValues` includes `(string & {}) | 0` — it only does so when the scale has no values, serving as a fallback.
+
+This means any prop bound to a populated scale is strictly typed. There is no per-prop opt-out. The `Prop` interface already supports per-prop modifiers (`negative: boolean`), making `strict: boolean` a natural addition.
+
+The `(string & {})` pattern is the TypeScript standard for "known literal union with arbitrary string escape hatch" — it preserves IntelliSense/typeahead for the known values while accepting any string without error.
+
+## Goals / Non-Goals
+
+**Goals:**
+- Add `strict?: boolean` to the `Prop` interface (default: `undefined`, treated as `true`)
+- When `strict: false`, the prop type becomes `scaleKeys | NegativeOf<...> | (string & {}) | 0` — scale values provide typeahead, arbitrary CSS strings accepted
+- Preserve existing behavior for all props that don't explicitly set `strict: false`
+- Work identically for theme-referenced scales, inline MapScale, and inline ArrayScale
+- Type-only change — zero runtime, zero extraction impact
+
+**Non-Goals:**
+- Scale-level `strict` on `addScale()` config (future consideration — requires type metadata in the theme shape)
+- System-wide `strict` default on `createSystem()` (premature — per-prop is the right granularity first)
+- Runtime validation of strict mode (extraction is the validation layer, not TypeScript)
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Decision 1: `strict` on `Prop` interface, not on scale or system
+
+**Choice:** Per-prop `strict: false` in the group definition.
+
+**Rationale:** The `Prop` interface is the natural place because:
+1. The `Prop` → `ScaleValue` resolution chain already uses `Prop` fields to modify type behavior (`negative: boolean` is the precedent)
+2. Different props can reference the same scale with different strictness (e.g., `p` strict, `gap` loose) — prop-level gives this control
+3. Scale-level `strict` on `addScale()` would require propagating type metadata through `Theme` which adds complexity to the theme builder's generic chain
+
+**Alternative considered:** `addScale({ strict: false })` — rejected because it couples strictness to the token definition rather than the consumption site. The same scale (`space`) may be consumed strictly by some props and loosely by others. Prop-level is more flexible.
+
+### Decision 2: Check `Config['strict'] extends false` (explicit false), not `Config['strict'] extends boolean`
+
+**Choice:** Only `false` triggers loose mode. `undefined` and `true` both produce strict behavior.
+
+**Rationale:** This ensures backward compatibility — every existing `Prop` has `strict: undefined`, which resolves to strict. You must explicitly opt out. The conditional `Config['strict'] extends false ? true : IsEmpty<Scale>` cleanly gates the `IncludeGlobals` parameter.
+
+### Decision 3: Introduce `StrictOrEmpty` helper type
+
+**Choice:** Extract the strict-vs-empty logic into a named type:
+
+```typescript
+type StrictOrEmpty<Config extends Prop, Scale> =
+  Config['strict'] extends false ? true : IsEmpty<Scale>;
+```
+
+**Rationale:** `ScaleValue` and `ThemedScaleValue` both have the same `IsEmpty<Scale>` check in three places each (theme scale, MapScale, ArrayScale). Replacing all six occurrences with `StrictOrEmpty<Config, Scale>` keeps the logic DRY and the intent readable.
+
+### Decision 4: `(string & {}) | 0` as the loose value, not just `(string & {})`
+
+**Choice:** Include `0` in the loose union (matching the existing `IncludeGlobals = true` behavior).
+
+**Rationale:** `0` is a valid CSS value for most properties (`margin: 0`, `padding: 0`). Without `0`, `p: 0` would require the scale to include a `0` key. Including `0` matches csstype's default `TLength` parameter and the existing loose behavior when scales are empty.
+
+## Risks / Trade-offs
+
+### Risk: Extraction accepts values that TypeScript now allows but can't extract
+`strict: false` means TypeScript accepts `p: someVariable` or `p: dynamicString`. Extraction requires static string literals — these would fail silently at build time.
+
+→ **Mitigation:** This is an existing risk for ALL Animus props (even strict ones accept `'inherit'`, which extraction can handle). The extraction pipeline already warns on non-literal values. `strict: false` doesn't make this worse — it just makes the type system more permissive, matching what extraction already handles.
+
+### Risk: `NegateKeys` interaction with `(string & {})`
+`NegateKeys` operates on numeric literal types. `(string & {})` passes through `NegateKeys` as `never` (it's not a number). No regression — negative values are only generated from scale keys, not from the loose string type.
+
+→ **Mitigation:** Verify with a type test that `strict: false` + `negative: true` still produces correct negative keys alongside `(string & {})`.
+
+### Risk: ResponsiveProp wrapping with loose values
+`Scale<Config, T>` wraps `ScaleValue` in `ResponsiveProp<T>`. With loose types, responsive objects would accept `{ sm: '2.5rem', md: 16 }` — mixing arbitrary strings with scale keys per breakpoint.
+
+→ **Mitigation:** This is the intended behavior. Responsive props should have the same escape hatch as base props. Verify with a type test.
+
+### Risk: Inline scale (`MapScale` / `ArrayScale`) interaction
+The `ScaleValue` type has three branches — theme scale, MapScale, ArrayScale. All three use `IsEmpty<Scale>` to gate `PropertyValues`. All three need to be updated to use `StrictOrEmpty<Config, Scale>`.
+
+→ **Mitigation:** Update all three branches consistently. Verify with type tests for each branch.
+
+### Trade-off: No scale-level `strict` (deferred)
+Some consumers may want ALL props referencing a scale to be loose (e.g., a `sizes` scale). Per-prop `strict: false` requires annotating each prop individually.
+
+→ **Accepted:** Per-prop is the right starting point. Scale-level `strict` can be added later without breaking changes (it would serve as a default that per-prop overrides).

+## Why
+
+System props bound to scales currently enforce strict typing — when a scale has values, only those values (plus CSS globals like `inherit`) are accepted. There is no escape hatch for one-off values like `'2.5rem'` without resorting to inline `style` or casting. Adding `strict: false` to the `Prop` config would widen the type to `scaleKeys | (string & {})`, preserving typeahead for scale values while accepting arbitrary CSS strings. This is the type-level equivalent of the pattern used by csstype, Chakra, and Stitches for "known values with escape hatch."
+
+## What Changes
+
+- Add optional `strict?: boolean` field to the `Prop` interface in `types/config.ts`
+- Modify `ScaleValue` and `ThemedScaleValue` type utilities to check `Config['strict']` — when explicitly `false`, include `(string & {}) | 0` in the value union regardless of whether the scale is empty
+- No runtime changes — `strict` is a type-only concern; the runtime parser already accepts any value
+- No extraction changes — extraction operates on static string literals at build time, independent of TypeScript prop types
+- Default behavior is unchanged: `strict` is `undefined` (treated as `true`), preserving current narrow typing
+
+## Capabilities
+
+### New Capabilities
+- `prop-strict-mode`: Per-prop `strict: false` option that widens scale-bound types from `scaleKeys | CSSGlobals` to `scaleKeys | (string & {})`, enabling arbitrary CSS value escape hatches with preserved typeahead
+
+### Modified Capabilities
+
+## Impact
+
+- `packages/system/src/types/config.ts` — `Prop` interface, `ScaleValue`, `ThemedScaleValue` types
+- `packages/system/src/groups/index.ts` — prop definitions can opt into `strict: false` (no changes required for default strict behavior)
+- `packages/system/__tests__/types.test-d.tsx` — new type assertions for strict/loose behavior
+- `packages/system/__tests__/test-system.ts` — may need scale values for testing
+- Zero runtime impact, zero extraction impact, zero breaking changes

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Prop strict field
+
+The `Prop` interface SHALL accept an optional `strict` field of type `boolean`. When omitted or `true`, prop typing behavior is unchanged from current behavior.
+
+#### Scenario: Prop with strict omitted (default)
+
+- **WHEN** a prop config does not include a `strict` field (e.g., `{ property: 'padding', scale: 'space' }`)
+- **THEN** the prop type resolves to scale keys plus CSS globals only, matching current behavior exactly
+
+#### Scenario: Prop with strict explicitly true
+
+- **WHEN** a prop config includes `strict: true` (e.g., `{ property: 'padding', scale: 'space', strict: true }`)
+- **THEN** the prop type resolves identically to when `strict` is omitted
+
+### Requirement: Loose typing with strict false
+
+When a prop config sets `strict: false`, the resolved type SHALL include scale keys with typeahead AND accept arbitrary CSS strings via `(string & {})`.
+
+#### Scenario: Theme-referenced scale with strict false
+
+- **WHEN** a prop config is `{ property: 'padding', scale: 'space', strict: false }` and the theme defines `space: { 0, 4, 8, 16 }`
+- **THEN** the prop accepts `0 | 4 | 8 | 16 | (string & {}) | 0` — scale keys appear in TypeScript autocomplete, and arbitrary strings like `'2.5rem'` compile without error
+
+#### Scenario: Inline MapScale with strict false
+
+- **WHEN** a prop config uses an inline MapScale `{ property: 'gridAutoFlow', scale: createScale<'row' | 'column'>(), strict: false }`
+- **THEN** the prop accepts `'row' | 'column' | (string & {})` — inline values appear in autocomplete, arbitrary strings accepted
+
+#### Scenario: Inline ArrayScale with strict false
+
+- **WHEN** a prop config uses an inline ArrayScale with `strict: false`
+- **THEN** the prop accepts array values plus `(string & {})` — inline values appear in autocomplete, arbitrary strings accepted
+
+### Requirement: Strict false with negative scales
+
+When `strict: false` and `negative: true` are both set on a prop, the resolved type SHALL include negative scale keys alongside the loose string type.
+
+#### Scenario: Negative margin with strict false
+
+- **WHEN** a prop config is `{ property: 'margin', scale: 'space', negative: true, strict: false }` and the theme defines `space: { 0, 4, 8, 16 }`
+- **THEN** the prop accepts `0 | 4 | 8 | 16 | -4 | -8 | -16 | (string & {}) | 0` — both positive and negative scale keys appear in autocomplete, arbitrary strings also accepted
+
+### Requirement: Strict false with responsive props
+
+When a prop has `strict: false`, the responsive prop wrapper SHALL apply the same loose typing at each breakpoint.
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive value with strict false
+
+- **WHEN** a prop has `strict: false` and is used with responsive syntax `{ sm: '2.5rem', md: 16 }`
+- **THEN** each breakpoint value accepts both scale keys and arbitrary strings
+
+### Requirement: Empty scale interaction
+
+When a scale has no values, typing behavior SHALL be unchanged regardless of the `strict` setting.
+
+#### Scenario: Empty scale with strict false
+
+- **WHEN** a prop references an empty scale with `strict: false`
+- **THEN** the type resolves to full CSS property values (same as current empty-scale behavior)
+
+#### Scenario: Empty scale with strict true
+
+- **WHEN** a prop references an empty scale with `strict: true` or `strict` omitted
+- **THEN** the type resolves to full CSS property values (same as current behavior — no regression)
+
+### Requirement: ThemedScaleValue consistency
+
+The `ThemedScaleValue` type (used for CSS object constraints in `.styles()` and `.variant()`) SHALL respect `strict: false` identically to `ScaleValue`.
+
+#### Scenario: Style object value with strict false prop
+
+- **WHEN** a loose prop is used in `.styles({ p: '2.5rem' })` where `p` is bound to a space scale with `strict: false`
+- **THEN** the value `'2.5rem'` compiles without error while scale keys still appear in autocomplete
+
+### Requirement: No runtime behavior change
+
+The `strict` field SHALL be a type-only concern with zero runtime impact. The runtime parser already accepts any value — `strict` only controls what TypeScript allows.
+
+#### Scenario: Runtime with strict false
+
+- **WHEN** a prop with `strict: false` receives a non-scale value at runtime (e.g., `p="2.5rem"`)
+- **THEN** the runtime processes it identically to any other string value (pass-through to CSS)
+
+#### Scenario: Extraction with strict false
+
+- **WHEN** a component uses a `strict: false` prop with a static string literal value
+- **THEN** the extraction pipeline processes it identically to any other static value (no extraction behavior change)

+## 1. Type Infrastructure
+
+- [ ] 1.1 Add `strict?: boolean` field to the `Prop` interface in `packages/system/src/types/config.ts`
+- [ ] 1.2 Add `StrictOrEmpty` helper type: `Config['strict'] extends false ? true : IsEmpty<Scale>`
+- [ ] 1.3 Update `ScaleValue` — replace `IsEmpty<Scale>` with `StrictOrEmpty<Config, Scale>` in all three branches (theme scale, MapScale, ArrayScale)
+- [ ] 1.4 Update `ThemedScaleValue` — same replacement in all three branches

+- [ ] 2.1 Test: prop with `strict: false` + theme scale accepts scale keys AND arbitrary strings
+- [ ] 2.2 Test: prop with `strict: false` + `negative: true` produces negative keys alongside `(string & {})`
+- [ ] 2.3 Test: prop with `strict: false` + responsive syntax accepts arbitrary strings per breakpoint

+
+## 3. Type Tests — Negative Assertions (Regression Guards)
+
+- [ ] 3.1 Test: prop with `strict` omitted rejects arbitrary strings when scale has values (current behavior preserved)
+- [ ] 3.2 Test: prop with `strict: true` rejects arbitrary strings when scale has values
+- [ ] 3.3 Test: prop with empty scale still accepts full CSS values regardless of strict setting
+- [ ] 3.4 Test: existing type assertions in `types.test-d.tsx` still pass (no regressions in negative scale, variant narrowing, etc.)

+
+- [ ] 4.1 Run `bun run test:types` — zero errors
+- [ ] 4.2 Run `bun run test` — 257+ tests pass
+- [ ] 4.3 Run `bun run build:ts` — all packages build clean (no TS2590 or declaration emit issues)

+### Requirement: asChild delegates rendering to the single child element
+
+When an Animus component receives `asChild={true}`, it SHALL NOT render its own element. Instead, it SHALL resolve its className and dynamic style as usual, then merge them onto the single child element via `cloneElement`.
+
+#### Scenario: Basic asChild rendering
+
+- **WHEN** `<Button kind="ghost" asChild><a href="/foo">Link</a></Button>` renders
+- **THEN** the output SHALL be `<a href="/foo" class="animus-Button-xxx animus-Button-xxx--kind-ghost">Link</a>` — no `<button>` element rendered
+
+#### Scenario: Child keeps its own props
+
+- **WHEN** a child element has `href`, `target`, `onClick`, or any other props
+- **THEN** those props SHALL be preserved on the rendered output — the parent does not strip or override them
+
+#### Scenario: asChild requires exactly one element child
+
+- **WHEN** `asChild={true}` is used with zero children, multiple children, or a non-element child (string, number, fragment)
+- **THEN** the component SHALL throw a runtime error indicating that asChild requires a single React element
+
+### Requirement: className merging with asChild
+
+When `asChild` is active, the parent's resolved className SHALL be merged with the child's existing className.
+
+#### Scenario: Merged className order
+
+- **WHEN** the parent resolves to `"animus-Box-abc animus-Box-abc--size-sm"` and the child has `className="child-extra"`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have `className="animus-Box-abc animus-Box-abc--size-sm child-extra"`
+
+#### Scenario: Child has no className
+
+- **WHEN** the child element has no className prop
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have only the parent's resolved className
+
+### Requirement: Ref composition with asChild
+
+When `asChild` is active, the parent's forwarded ref and the child's ref SHALL both receive the rendered DOM element.
+
+#### Scenario: Both refs receive the element
+
+- **WHEN** the parent has a forwarded ref and the child has its own ref
+- **THEN** both refs SHALL be set to the same DOM element after mount
+
+#### Scenario: Only parent ref exists
+
+- **WHEN** the parent has a forwarded ref but the child has no ref
+- **THEN** the parent ref SHALL receive the DOM element normally
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic style merging with asChild
+
+When `asChild` is active and the parent has dynamic CSS variable styles, they SHALL be merged with the child's existing inline style.
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic styles applied to child
+
+- **WHEN** the parent has dynamic prop styles `{ '--animus-p': '16px' }` and the child has `style={{ color: 'red' }}`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL have `style={{ color: 'red', '--animus-p': '16px' }}`
+
+#### Scenario: No dynamic styles
+
+- **WHEN** the parent has no dynamic prop values and the child has `style={{ color: 'red' }}`
+- **THEN** the child's style SHALL be preserved unchanged
+
+### Requirement: asChild coexists with `as` prop
+
+The `asChild` and `as` props SHALL coexist. When both are provided, `asChild` SHALL take precedence and `as` SHALL be ignored.
+
+#### Scenario: asChild takes precedence over as
+
+- **WHEN** `<Button as="a" asChild><span>text</span></Button>` renders
+- **THEN** the output SHALL be `<span class="...">text</span>` — `asChild` wins, `as="a"` is ignored
+
+#### Scenario: as prop works normally without asChild
+
+- **WHEN** `<Button as="a" href="/foo">Link</Button>` renders without asChild
+- **THEN** the output SHALL be `<a href="/foo" class="...">Link</a>` — existing behavior unchanged
+
+### Requirement: asChild with composed families
+
+The `asChild` prop SHALL work on slots within composed families. Composed variant classes (from CSS cascade or context propagation) SHALL merge onto the child element.
+
+#### Scenario: Composed slot with asChild
+
+- **WHEN** `<Card.Header asChild><Link href="/x">Title</Link></Card.Header>` renders inside `<Card.Root density="compact">`
+- **THEN** Card.Header's resolved className (including any composed variant classes) SHALL merge onto the Link element
+
+### Requirement: asChild prop is not forwarded to DOM
+
+The `asChild` prop SHALL be filtered from DOM prop forwarding, same as variant props and system props.
+
+#### Scenario: asChild absent from DOM attributes
+
+- **WHEN** any component renders with `asChild={true}`
+- **THEN** the rendered DOM element SHALL NOT have an `asChild` attribute

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Behavioral taxonomy defines 15 system behaviors
+
+The test suite SHALL recognize 15 distinct system behaviors as the organizing taxonomy: chain recognition, style evaluation, theme resolution, CSS generation, transform emission, import resolution, chain merging, JSX scanning, reconciliation, post-processing, serialization, composition, runtime resolution, type contracts, artifact integrity.
+
+#### Scenario: Every behavior maps to a primary test tier
+
+- **WHEN** the behavioral taxonomy is consulted
+- **THEN** each of the 15 behaviors SHALL have exactly one designated primary test tier (Rust unit, JS unit, canary, integration, type, or post-build)
+- **AND** each behavior MAY have one or more secondary tiers
+
+### Requirement: Canary describe blocks use behavioral names
+
+Canary test describe blocks SHALL be named by the extraction behavior they verify, not by the component fixture they exercise. Component names MAY appear in individual test names but SHALL NOT be the primary grouping.
+
+#### Scenario: Behavioral describe structure
+
+- **WHEN** canary.test.ts is opened
+- **THEN** top-level describe blocks SHALL use behavior names such as "base style extraction", "variant resolution", "responsive generation", "compound variants", "state extraction", "transform placeholders", "token alias resolution", "extension chains", "reconciliation", "system props", "custom props", "manifest and transformation"
+- **AND** individual tests within each block MAY reference the component fixture used (e.g., "button fixture produces size variants")
+
+#### Scenario: No component-oriented top-level describes
+
+- **WHEN** searching canary.test.ts for describe block names
+- **THEN** no top-level describe block SHALL be named "Canary: <ComponentName> extraction"
+
+### Requirement: Integration test files named by behavior
+
+Integration test files in `packages/_integration/__tests__/` SHALL be named for the behavior they test, not the pipeline mechanism they exercise.
+
+#### Scenario: Serialization behavior file
+
+- **WHEN** tests verify `serialize()` output shape and NAPI round-trip
+- **THEN** those tests SHALL live in `serialization.test.ts`
+
+#### Scenario: Extraction behavior file
+
+- **WHEN** tests verify full pipeline extraction output (NAPI → post-processing → final CSS)
+- **THEN** those tests SHALL live in `extraction.test.ts`
+
+#### Scenario: Composition behavior file
+
+- **WHEN** tests verify `compose()` through the extraction pipeline
+- **THEN** those tests SHALL live in `composition.test.ts`
+
+### Requirement: Parametrized tests for repetitive assertions
+
+Where multiple inputs test the same behavior with different expected outputs, tests SHALL use `test.each()` parametrization instead of repeating the assertion pattern.
+
+#### Scenario: Variant option resolution uses test.each
+
+- **WHEN** testing that variant options (e.g., size:small, size:medium, size:large) each resolve to expected CSS values
+- **THEN** a single `test.each()` block SHALL define the input-output pairs
+- **AND** each pair SHALL be a separate test invocation with a descriptive name template
+
+#### Scenario: Post-processing unit fallback uses test.each
+
+- **WHEN** testing that `applyUnitFallback()` handles multiple property types (length, unitless, zero)
+- **THEN** a single `test.each()` block SHALL cover the property × value matrix
+
+### Requirement: Token invariant guard on integration tests
+
+Every integration test that produces CSS output through the pipeline SHALL include an assertion that no raw unresolved token names appear as CSS property values.
+
+#### Scenario: Extraction test guards against raw tokens
+
+- **WHEN** an integration test calls `runPipeline()` and receives CSS output
+- **THEN** the test SHALL assert that CSS does not contain patterns matching known theme token names as bare property values (e.g., `background-color: primary;` or `color: danger;`)
+
+#### Scenario: Guard uses theme-derived token list
+
+- **WHEN** the token invariant guard is applied
+- **THEN** the list of guarded token names SHALL derive from the shared theme fixture's scale names (colors, color modes), not from a hand-maintained list
+
+### Requirement: TESTING.md behavioral manifest
+
+A `TESTING.md` file SHALL exist at the repository root mapping every system behavior to its test locations, tiers, and assertion patterns.
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest maps all 15 behaviors
+
+- **WHEN** TESTING.md is consulted
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain an entry for each of the 15 system behaviors
+- **AND** each entry SHALL include: behavior name, primary test tier, primary file location, secondary tier(s) if any, assertion pattern used
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest includes tier summary
+
+- **WHEN** TESTING.md is consulted
+- **THEN** it SHALL include a summary table of all test tiers with: tier name, run command, file count, purpose description
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest includes test counts
+
+- **WHEN** TESTING.md is consulted
+- **THEN** it SHALL include current test counts per tier (Rust unit, JS unit, canary, integration, type, post-build)

+# build-orchestration Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+Defines the build dependency graph for the monorepo — tier topology, NAPI binary build, TypeScript package build order, and the orchestrator binding that materializes them. Update Purpose after archive cycles.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Full build DAG in root scripts
+
+The root `package.json` SHALL contain scripts that encode the complete build dependency graph. A developer SHALL be able to build the entire project from a clean state with a single command.
+
+#### Scenario: Build all from clean state
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run build:all` from the repository root
+- **THEN** the Rust extraction crate is built first (napi build)
+- **THEN** TypeScript packages are built in dependency order: core → theming → runtime → vite-plugin → ui
+- **THEN** all `dist/` directories contain current build artifacts
+
+#### Scenario: Build only the Rust crate
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run build:extract` from the repository root
+- **THEN** only `packages/extract` is built via `napi build --platform --release`
+- **THEN** the `.node` binary is updated in `packages/extract/`
+
+#### Scenario: Build only TypeScript packages
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run build:ts` from the repository root
+- **THEN** TypeScript packages are built in dependency order: core → theming → runtime → vite-plugin → ui
+- **THEN** the Rust crate is NOT rebuilt
+
+### Requirement: Clean command
+
+The root orchestrator's task graph (currently `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` per the `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` binding) SHALL contain a `clean` task that removes all build artifacts, returning the repo to a pre-build state. The task's command MAY use `rm -rf` directly until vp ships a native cleaning capability that preserves all current cleaning targets.
+
+#### Scenario: Clean all artifacts
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bunx vp run clean` from the repository root
+- **THEN** all `packages/*/dist/` directories are removed
+- **THEN** `packages/extract/target/` (Rust build cache) is removed
+- **THEN** no source files or configuration files are affected
+
+### Requirement: Full verification pipeline
+
+The root `package.json` SHALL contain a `verify` script that validates the entire project: build, test, typecheck, and lint.
+
+#### Scenario: Full verification from clean state
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify` from the repository root
+- **THEN** all packages are built in correct order (build:all)
+- **THEN** all tests pass (bun test)
+- **THEN** type checking passes (tsc --noEmit)
+- **THEN** linting passes (biome check)
+
+#### Scenario: Verification catches stale artifacts
+
+- **WHEN** a developer modifies Rust source in `packages/extract/src/`
+- **THEN** running `bun run verify` rebuilds the Rust crate before running tests
+- **THEN** tests run against the updated `.node` binary
+
+### Requirement: Granular test commands
+
+The root `package.json` SHALL contain scoped test scripts for common verification workflows.
+
+#### Scenario: Run only the canary extraction test
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run test:canary` from the repository root
+- **THEN** only `packages/extract/tests/canary.test.ts` executes
+- **THEN** other test files are not discovered or run
+
+#### Scenario: Showcase app as integration smoke test
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run test:showcase` from the repository root
+- **THEN** the showcase app's Vite build runs (`vite build`)
+- **THEN** a successful build confirms the full extraction pipeline is operational
+
+### Requirement: Missing tsdown configs
+
+Every TypeScript package with `tsdown` in its build script SHALL have a `tsdown.config.ts` that extends the shared base config.
+
+#### Scenario: vite-plugin has tsdown config
+
+- **WHEN** examining `packages/vite-plugin/tsdown.config.ts`
+- **THEN** it imports `createConfig` from the shared base
+- **THEN** it overrides `platform: 'node'` (vite plugins run in Node)
+
+#### Scenario: runtime has tsdown config
+
+- **WHEN** examining `packages/runtime/tsdown.config.ts`
+- **THEN** it imports `createConfig` from the shared base
+- **THEN** it uses the default configuration (no overrides needed)
+
+### Requirement: TypeScript build pipeline
+
+The monorepo SHALL build all TypeScript library packages via `bun run --filter` with topological ordering derived from workspace dependency graph.
+
+#### Scenario: build:ts executes all TS packages
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run build:ts` is executed at the root
+- **THEN** all packages with a `build:ts` script SHALL execute in dependency order
+
+#### Scenario: Packages without build:ts are skipped
+
+- **WHEN** a package (e.g., `_integration`, `_docs`) has no `build:ts` script
+- **THEN** `bun run --filter` SHALL skip it without error
+
+#### Scenario: App packages excluded from library build
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run build:ts` is executed
+- **THEN** showcase and next-test-app SHALL NOT be built (they are app builds, not library builds)
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The build DAG, clean command, verification pipeline, and granular test commands defined in this spec are realized through the orchestrator binding designated by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding uses `bun run` (specifically `bun run build:all`, `bun run build:extract`, `bun run build:ts`, `bun run clean`, `bun run verify`). A future rebind to a different orchestrator (e.g., Vite+ via the `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` follow-on policy change) SHALL preserve every behavioral requirement in this spec — DAG ordering, clean coverage, verification composition — while updating only the invocation surface.
+
+The Rust NAPI build (`packages/extract`) SHALL remain owned by `cargo` + `@napi-rs/cli` per the Rust-pipeline exclusion in `orchestration-architecture`. Any orchestrator binding that orchestrates the full DAG MUST shell out to the cargo-based NAPI build for the Rust step.
+
+#### Scenario: Build DAG semantics survive orchestrator rebind
+
+- **WHEN** a cutover follow-on rebinds the orchestrator
+- **THEN** the full-build task continues to build packages in the correct topological position
+- **AND** the Rust NAPI build continues to invoke `cargo` / `napi build`
+- **AND** the clean task continues to remove `dist/`, `target/`, and `.node` artifacts as documented
+- **AND** the verification pipeline continues to compose its constituent tiers in the correct order
+
+### Requirement: Build Pipeline Invocation via vp run
+
+The full build DAG, full verification pipeline, and granular build commands defined in this spec are dispatched through Vite+ (`vp run`). The canonical invocation surface for `build:all`, `build:extract`, `build:ts`, and `verify` SHALL be `vp run <task>`. Migrated task names live ONLY in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` (not in `package.json` `scripts`) — `bun run <migrated-name>` returns "script not found" by design.
+
+The `clean` command in this slice remains a direct shell script and STAYS in `package.json` `scripts` as `bun run clean*` invocations — cleaning is destructive, must always execute, and is reserved for a future `resolve-clean-surface` follow-on for any vp-side dispatch.
+
+The Rust NAPI build SHALL continue to be invoked through `cargo` / `napi build --platform --release` per the Rust-pipeline exclusion. vp dispatches the build but does NOT replace the cargo toolchain. The `clean` command in this slice SHALL remain a direct shell invocation (`rm -rf` against `packages/*/dist/`, `packages/extract/target/`, and `*.node` artifacts) — `vp cache` (or whatever vp provides for cleaning) is NOT bound by this slice and is reserved for a separate follow-on.
+
+The DAG semantics, clean coverage, and verification composition defined elsewhere in this spec are preserved verbatim — only the dispatch surface changes.
+
+#### Scenario: vp run build:all builds Rust before TypeScript
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run build:all` from the repository root
+- **THEN** the Rust extraction crate builds first (`cargo` / `napi build`)
+- **AND** TypeScript packages build after in dependency order
+- **AND** all `dist/` directories contain current build artifacts
+
+#### Scenario: vp run build:extract builds only the Rust crate
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run build:extract` from the repository root
+- **THEN** vp's `build:extract` task body invokes `napi build --platform --release` (or equivalent) for `packages/extract`
+- **AND** the `.node` binary in `packages/extract/` is updated
+- **AND** no TypeScript package is built
+
+#### Scenario: vp run build:ts builds only TypeScript packages
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run build:ts` from the repository root
+- **THEN** TypeScript library packages build in dependency order
+- **AND** the Rust crate is NOT rebuilt
+
+#### Scenario: vp run clean removes build artifacts via shell
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run clean` from the repository root
+- **THEN** vp dispatches the existing `rm -rf` clean shell logic
+- **AND** all `packages/*/dist/`, `packages/extract/target/`, and `*.node` artifacts are removed
+- **AND** no source files or configuration files are affected
+
+#### Scenario: vp run verify runs the full verification pipeline
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run verify` from the repository root
+- **THEN** the fast-gate atomic tiers execute in dependency order
+- **AND** execution stops at the first failing tier with the failing tier's name visible in output

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Tiered clean scripts
+
+The root `package.json` SHALL provide three clean script tiers: `clean:light` for high-risk caches only, `clean:full` for all build artifacts and caches, and `clean` (unchanged) for backward compatibility.
+
+#### Scenario: clean:light removes Vite cache and TS dist
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run clean:light` is executed
+- **THEN** the following SHALL be removed: `node_modules/.vite/`, `packages/*/dist/`
+- **AND** the following SHALL NOT be removed: `packages/extract/target/`, `packages/extract/*.node`
+
+#### Scenario: clean:full removes all build artifacts and caches
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run clean:full` is executed
+- **THEN** the following SHALL be removed: `node_modules/.vite/`, `packages/*/dist/`, `packages/extract/target/`, `packages/extract/*.node`
+
+#### Scenario: clean unchanged for backward compatibility
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run clean` is executed
+- **THEN** it SHALL behave identically to its current behavior: removing `packages/*/dist` and `packages/extract/target`
+
+### Requirement: Rebuild script for guaranteed fresh state
+
+The root `package.json` SHALL provide a `rebuild` script that performs a full clean followed by a complete build in dependency order.
+
+#### Scenario: rebuild produces fresh state from any cache corruption
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run rebuild` is executed
+- **THEN** it SHALL first execute `clean:full` to remove all caches and artifacts
+- **AND** then execute `build:all` to rebuild Rust crate followed by all TS packages in dependency order
+
+#### Scenario: rebuild succeeds after NAPI signature change
+
+- **WHEN** a Rust NAPI function signature has changed and the old `.node` binary exists
+- **AND** `bun run rebuild` is executed
+- **THEN** the old `.node` binary SHALL be removed before cargo build
+- **AND** the new binary SHALL be produced with the updated signature
+
+### Requirement: Showcase as verification gate
+
+The `verify:full` script SHALL include the showcase build as the extraction pipeline integration gate. A separate `verify:showcase` script SHALL exist for focused extraction verification.
+
+#### Scenario: verify:full includes showcase build
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify:full` is executed
+- **THEN** it SHALL execute: Rust build, TS build (ordered), tests, biome check, AND showcase build
+- **AND** if the showcase build fails, `verify:full` SHALL fail
+
+#### Scenario: verify:showcase tests extraction end-to-end
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify:showcase` is executed
+- **THEN** it SHALL execute: `build:all` followed by showcase build (`bun run --filter './packages/showcase' build`)
+
+#### Scenario: verify (without :full) remains fast
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify` is executed
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT include the showcase build or Rust build (unchanged behavior)
+
+### Requirement: Build dependency order
+
+All build scripts that compile multiple packages SHALL respect the dependency order: extract (Rust) → core → theming → runtime → system → vite-plugin → ui. The showcase build SHALL only execute after all dependencies are built.
+
+#### Scenario: build:ts respects dependency order
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run build:ts` is executed
+- **THEN** packages SHALL build in order: core, theming, runtime, system, vite-plugin, ui
+- **AND** each package build SHALL complete before the next begins
+
+#### Scenario: build:all includes Rust before TS
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run build:all` is executed
+- **THEN** the Rust crate SHALL build first (`build:extract`)
+- **AND** then TS packages SHALL build in dependency order (`build:ts`)
+
+### Requirement: Verify script runs all test suites
+
+The `verify` script SHALL run both JavaScript tests (`bun test`) AND Rust unit tests (`cargo test --lib`) to gate changes. Rust tests SHALL also be included in `verify:full`.
+
+#### Scenario: verify includes Rust tests
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify`
+- **THEN** Rust library tests SHALL execute via `cargo test --lib` in `packages/extract/`
+- **AND** failure in Rust tests SHALL cause `verify` to exit non-zero
+
+#### Scenario: verify:full includes Rust tests
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify:full`
+- **THEN** Rust library tests SHALL execute alongside JS tests, showcase build, and biome check
+
+### Requirement: Verification commands use derived build ordering
+
+All verification commands SHALL use the `--filter`-based build scripts internally. The verification command surface (`verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:showcase`) SHALL remain unchanged.
+
+#### Scenario: verify command
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify` is executed
+- **THEN** it SHALL run `build:ts` (via --filter), compile, test, test:rust, test:types, and check — same outputs as before
+
+#### Scenario: verify:full command
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify:full` is executed
+- **THEN** it SHALL run `build:all` (Rust + --filter TS), test, check, and showcase build — same outputs as before
+
+### Requirement: Rust unit tests run independently from NAPI binary build in CI
+
+A dedicated `test-rust` CI job SHALL run `cargo test --lib` in debug profile. The `build-extract` job builds NAPI binaries without running tests. The `verify` job depends on both (`needs: [build-extract, test-rust]`) and SHALL NOT include Rust toolchain setup, Rust cache, or `cargo test --lib`.
+
+#### Scenario: Rust tests pass in dedicated job
+
+- **WHEN** CI runs the `test-rust` job
+- **THEN** `cargo test --lib` executes with its own Rust toolchain and cache, independent of the NAPI binary build matrix
+
+#### Scenario: Rust tests fail
+
+- **WHEN** `cargo test --lib` fails in `test-rust`
+- **THEN** the `verify` job is blocked (via `needs` dependency), preventing the pipeline from proceeding

+
+- **WHEN** `build-extract` runs on each platform matrix entry
+- **THEN** it builds and uploads the NAPI binary without running `cargo test --lib`
+
+#### Scenario: Verify job has no Rust dependencies
+
+- **WHEN** the `verify` job runs
+- **THEN** it does not install Rust toolchain, does not restore Rust cache, and does not run `cargo test --lib`

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Progressive type accumulation via 8 generic parameters
+
+The builder chain SHALL use 9 generic parameters (up from 8), with `T extends BaseTheme` as the first parameter on all 6 classes and AnimusExtended. T SHALL be set by the SystemBuilder's `.withTokens()` phase and threaded through all subsequent type operations. The generic signature SHALL be:
+
+```
+Animus<T, PropRegistry, GroupRegistry, BaseParser>
+  → AnimusWithBase<T, PR, GR, BP, BaseStyles>
+    → AnimusWithVariants<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, Variants>
+      → AnimusWithStates<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, V, States>
+        → AnimusWithSystem<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, V, S, ActiveGroups>
+          → AnimusWithAll<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, V, S, AG, CustomProps>
+
+AnimusExtended<T, PR, GR, BP, BS, V, S, AG, CP>
+```
+
+#### Scenario: Type parameters carry style values
+
+- **WHEN** a component is created via `ds.styles({ color: 'primary', p: 8 })`
+- **THEN** the BaseStyles generic SHALL capture the specific prop types, and T SHALL constrain `'primary'` to be a valid key of `T['colors']`
+
+#### Scenario: Variant types accumulate across multiple calls
+
+- **WHEN** `.variant()` is called multiple times in an extension chain
+- **THEN** variant types SHALL merge, and T SHALL be preserved across all variant type accumulations
+
+### Requirement: Terminal methods materialize configuration into components
+
+Terminal methods (`.asElement()`, `.asComponent()`, `.build()`) SHALL produce components/handlers that are fully typed with T flowing through to prop types. Scale-resolved props SHALL autocomplete from `T[scale]`.
+
+#### Scenario: asElement creates a styled HTML element
+
+- **WHEN** `ds.styles({ bg: 'primary' }).asElement('div')` is called
+- **THEN** the resulting component's `bg` prop SHALL autocomplete with `keyof T['colors']` values
+
+#### Scenario: asComponent wraps an existing component
+
+- **WHEN** `.asComponent(ExistingComponent)` is called
+- **THEN** the resulting component SHALL carry T-derived prop types alongside the wrapped component's props
+
+#### Scenario: Terminal components carry extend()
+
+- **WHEN** `.extend()` is called on a terminal component
+- **THEN** the AnimusExtended instance SHALL carry the same T, enabling scale-resolved autocomplete in extension styles
+
+#### Scenario: build() produces a raw style function
+
+- **WHEN** `.build()` is called instead of a terminal
+- **THEN** the returned function's props SHALL be typed with T-derived scale values
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: No Emotion dependency in builder chain
+
+The system package's builder chain SHALL NOT import from `@emotion/styled`, `@emotion/react`, or any Emotion package. Terminal methods SHALL produce configuration objects consumed by the extraction pipeline and runtime shim, not Emotion styled components.
+
+#### Scenario: asElement produces extraction-compatible output
+
+- **WHEN** `.asElement('div')` is called on the system package builder
+- **THEN** the output SHALL be compatible with `createComponent()` from `@animus-ui/runtime`, not `styled()` from Emotion
+
+#### Scenario: No ThemeProvider required
+
+- **WHEN** a component created via the system builder is rendered
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT require an Emotion ThemeProvider in the React tree
+
+### Requirement: Theme-aware CSS object constraints via module augmentation
+
+The `.styles()`, `.variant()`, and `.states()` method parameter types SHALL use `ThemedCSSProps<Props, PropRegistry>` and `ThemedCSSPropMap<Props, PropRegistry>` instead of `CSSProps<Props, SystemProps<AbstractParser>>`. These types resolve scale constraints through the augmentable `Theme` interface rather than a generic `T` parameter, avoiding TypeScript's complexity ceiling while preserving type safety.
+
+#### Scenario: Scale-constrained values when Theme is augmented
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer augments `Theme` via `declare module '@animus-ui/system' { interface Theme extends MyTheme {} }` where `MyTheme` has `fontSizes: { 11, 12, 14, 16 }`
+- **THEN** `ds.styles({ fontSize: 567 })` SHALL produce a type error because `567` is not in the fontSizes scale
+- **AND** `ds.styles({ fontSize: 11 })` SHALL compile without error
+
+#### Scenario: Fallback to CSS property types when Theme is not augmented
+
+- **WHEN** `Theme` is NOT augmented (empty interface)
+- **THEN** `.styles()` SHALL accept any valid CSS property values (same behavior as before augmentation)
+
+#### Scenario: Class generic bounds remain loose
+
+- **WHEN** the class hierarchy is defined (`AnimusWithBase extends AnimusWithVariants extends ...`)
+- **THEN** class generic bounds SHALL use `CSSProps<AbstractProps, SystemProps<AbstractParser>>` — only the method parameter types use `ThemedCSSProps`
+- **AND** TypeScript SHALL NOT produce TS2590 "union too complex" errors
+
+#### Scenario: Variant and state CSS objects are themed
+
+- **WHEN** `.variant({ prop: 'kind', variants: { active: { bg: 'invalid' } } })` is called and `Theme` is augmented
+- **THEN** `'invalid'` SHALL produce a type error if it's not a valid color token

+# bun-test Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+TBD - created by archiving change bun-test. Update Purpose after archive.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Bun native test runner
+
+Tests SHALL run via the test-runner binding designated by `orchestration-architecture`. The current binding is `vp test` (Vitest 4.x under the hood, dispatched via the `vp` orchestrator binary as `bunx vp test run`). The previous binding was `bun test`. No Jest, babel-jest, or jest-environment-jsdom dependencies SHALL be required under any binding.
+
+#### Scenario: Run all tests from root
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs the test-runner binding at the repository root (currently `bunx vp test run`)
+- **THEN** all test files across packages are discovered and executed
+
+#### Scenario: Run package-specific tests
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs the test-runner binding scoped to a package directory (currently `bunx vp test run packages/system/__tests__`)
+- **THEN** only tests in that package execute
+
+### Requirement: No Jest configuration
+
+The repository SHALL NOT contain Jest configuration files. All `jest.config.js`, `jest.config.base.js`, and `tsconfig.jest.json` files SHALL be removed.
+
+#### Scenario: Jest config removal
+
+- **WHEN** searching the repository for Jest configuration
+- **THEN** no `jest.config.*` files exist at any level
+- **THEN** no `jest`, `babel-jest`, `jest-environment-*`, or `jest-junit` entries exist in any `package.json`
+
+### Requirement: Test file compatibility
+
+Existing test files SHALL work with the test-runner binding with minimal changes. `describe`, `it`, `expect` APIs are compatible across Jest, bun:test, and Vitest. Import adjustments (e.g., `import { describe, it, expect } from 'vitest'`) SHALL be applied where needed. Snapshot assertions SHALL use `toMatchInlineSnapshot()` rather than file-based `toMatchSnapshot()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Core unit tests pass
+
+- **WHEN** running `bunx vp test run packages/system/__tests__`
+- **THEN** all existing unit tests pass (with import adjustments only, no logic changes)
+
+#### Scenario: Inline snapshots preferred over file-based
+
+- **WHEN** a test requires snapshot-based assertion
+- **THEN** it SHALL use `toMatchInlineSnapshot()` with the expected output co-located in the test file
+- **AND** it SHALL NOT use `toMatchSnapshot()` with a separate `__snapshots__/` file
+
+### Requirement: Parameterized fixture testing
+
+Where extract canary tests use `test.each` or `describe.each` for parameterized testing across fixture files, the test runner SHALL preserve per-fixture diagnostic clarity by emitting separate pass/fail results for each fixture.
+
+#### Scenario: Parameterized extraction tests
+
+- **WHEN** multiple fixture files require the same extraction assertion pattern
+- **THEN** `test.each` or `describe.each` SHALL be used with the fixture name visible in test output
+- **AND** each fixture SHALL produce its own pass/fail result for diagnostic clarity
+
+### Requirement: DOM test environment
+
+Tests requiring DOM APIs SHALL use happy-dom rather than jsdom. Under the current binding (`vp test`), happy-dom is configured via the `test.environment` field in `vite.config.ts` and SHALL be installed as an explicit devDependency.
+
+#### Scenario: DOM environment available
+
+- **WHEN** a test file requires DOM APIs (document, window)
+- **THEN** happy-dom provides the DOM environment as configured by `test.environment` in `vite.config.ts`
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The test-runner contract is owned by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding for the contract is `vp test` (Vitest 4.x under the hood, dispatched via the `vp` orchestrator binary as `bunx vp test run`). The previous binding was `bun test` and was replaced by the `migrate-test-to-vp-test` cutover follow-on. A future rebind to a different test runner SHALL preserve every requirement in this spec that is not explicitly modified by the rebind change.
+
+The `vp test` invocation, file-discovery patterns (Vitest defaults: `**/*.{test,spec}.{ts,tsx}`), and DOM-environment defaults (happy-dom configured via `test.environment` in `vite.config.ts`) documented above describe the CURRENT binding. A future rebind MAY update these to the rebound runner's equivalents (alternative config surface, alternative DOM environment).
+
+#### Scenario: Test contracts survive runner rebind
+
+- **WHEN** a cutover follow-on rebinds the test runner
+- **THEN** the requirements in this spec that describe SEMANTICS (e.g., snapshot inlining, parameterized fixtures, DOM availability) continue to hold under the new runner
+- **AND** only the invocation-surface requirements are updated by the rebind

+## Purpose
+
+Defines Bun as the monorepo's sole package manager and workspace runner, and constrains the shape of root-level `package.json` scripts so that workflows (build, test, verification, lint, release) use one authoritative surface. Downstream capabilities (e.g., `verification-tier-policy`) extend the script inventory via MODIFIED deltas against the Requirements below.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Bun as package manager
+
+The monorepo SHALL use Bun as the sole package manager. `bun install` SHALL resolve all workspace dependencies and produce a `bun.lock` lockfile. No other package manager lockfiles (yarn.lock, package-lock.json) SHALL exist in the repository.
+
+#### Scenario: Clean install
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun install` from the repository root
+- **THEN** all workspace packages and their dependencies are installed, and `bun.lock` is created
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace dependency resolution
+
+- **WHEN** `@animus-ui/theming` declares a dependency on `@animus-ui/core`
+- **THEN** Bun resolves it to the local workspace package (not a registry version)
+
+### Requirement: Bun workspace script execution
+
+The monorepo SHALL use Bun's native workspace features for resolving the workspace dependency graph. Cross-workspace task dispatch (running a script across multiple packages in dependency order) is owned by Vite+ via the `vp run` task graph; ad-hoc per-package dispatch via `bun run --filter` continues to work for individual-package developer workflows but is NOT the canonical multi-package orchestration surface.
+
+The workspace SHALL include active packages from `packages/` and consumer fixture apps from `e2e/`. It SHALL exclude packages located under `legacy/` at the repository root. `vp run build:all` SHALL build only packages present in the root `package.json` `workspaces` array — legacy packages SHALL NOT be included in any cross-workspace orchestration regardless of dispatch surface. The migrated `build:*` tasks live ONLY in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks`; `bun run build:*` returns "script not found" post-migration by design (hard cutover).
+
+#### Scenario: Run build across active packages
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run build:ts` from the root
+- **THEN** all active workspace packages with a `build:ts` script (from `packages/` and `e2e/`) build in dependency order
+- **AND** no package under `legacy/` is built
+- **AND** `bun run build:ts` returns "script not found" (no `package.json` entry — the migrated task name lives only in `vite.config.ts`)
+
+#### Scenario: Run script in specific active package
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build`
+- **THEN** only the `packages/system` build script executes
+- **AND** this ad-hoc dispatch path remains valid for per-package work
+
+#### Scenario: Filter resolves e2e workspace member
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/next-app' build`
+- **THEN** bun resolves the `@animus-ui/next-app` workspace to its location under `e2e/next-app/`
+- **AND** only that build script executes
+
+#### Scenario: Filter does not resolve legacy packages
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/core' build`
+- **THEN** bun reports no matching workspace (since `@animus-ui/core` resides under `legacy/` and is excluded from the workspace graph)
+
+### Requirement: Workspace Array Excludes Legacy Paths
+
+The root `package.json` `workspaces` array SHALL NOT contain any entry whose path begins with `legacy/`. Additions to the workspaces array SHALL be reviewed against this rule.
+
+#### Scenario: Workspaces array shape
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the root `package.json` `workspaces` field
+- **THEN** every entry refers to a path under `packages/` or under `e2e/`
+- **AND** no entry refers to a path under `legacy/`
+
+### Requirement: Workspace Array Includes e2e Paths
+
+The root `package.json` `workspaces` array SHALL include entries (either explicit paths or via glob expansion) for `e2e/*` consumer fixture applications. At minimum, the array SHALL include `e2e/next-app`.
+
+#### Scenario: e2e entry present
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the root `package.json` `workspaces` field
+- **THEN** an entry covers `e2e/next-app` (either as an explicit `e2e/next-app` string or via a `e2e/*` glob)
+
+### Requirement: Workspace Array Includes Shared Assertions Scaffold
+
+The root `package.json` `workspaces` array SHALL include `packages/_assertions` (either as an explicit entry or via a `packages/*` glob). `@animus-ui/assertions` MUST be workspace-resolvable so consumers can import it via `workspace:*` dependency specifiers.
+
+#### Scenario: Assertions scaffold entry present
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the root `package.json` `workspaces` field
+- **THEN** an entry covers `packages/_assertions`
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace resolution for assertions
+
+- **WHEN** another workspace declares `"@animus-ui/assertions": "workspace:*"` in its dependencies
+- **THEN** `bun install` symlinks `node_modules/@animus-ui/assertions` to `packages/_assertions`
+
+### Requirement: Simplified root scripts
+
+The root `package.json` `scripts` block SHALL be split between MIGRATED tasks (defined in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks`, ABSENT from `package.json` `scripts`) and UNMIGRATED tasks (PRESENT in `package.json` `scripts`, NOT migrated to vp).
+
+Migrated tasks: every `verify:*` (atomic tiers + composite orchestrators), `build:*` (build:all, build:extract, build:ts, build:showcase, rebuild), and `hygiene`. After migration, NONE of these names appear in `package.json` `scripts`; their canonical invocation is `vp run <task>`.
+
+Unmigrated tasks: `clean`, `clean:light`, `clean:full` (destructive shells, must always execute); `dev:showcase` (long-running watch); `test` (bun test, future migration); `lint`, `format`, `check`, `check:fix` (biome wrappers, separate future migration); `release` (one-shot release.sh); `deploy:showcase` (one-shot deploy). These keep their `package.json` entries and `bun run X` invocation surface.
+
+#### Scenario: Root script inventory
+
+- **WHEN** examining root `package.json` `scripts`
+- **THEN** tier-related migrated names (`verify:*`, `build:*`, `hygiene`, composite orchestrators) DO NOT appear in `scripts`
+- **AND** unmigrated entries (`clean*`, `dev:showcase`, `test`, `lint`, `format`, `check`, `check:fix`, `release`, `deploy:showcase`) DO appear with their existing command bodies
+- **AND** `bun.lock`-related operations and `--filter` ad-hoc dispatch remain bun-native
+- **AND** no references to yarn, npx, nx, lerna, or jest exist in any script
+
+### Requirement: No competing orchestration tools
+
+The repository SHALL NOT depend on multiple competing task-graph orchestration tools simultaneously. Vite+ (`vp` CLI) is the designated orchestrator. NX, Lerna, Turborepo, Moon, or equivalent monorepo orchestration tools SHALL NOT be installed alongside Vite+. Their configuration files (`nx.json`, `lerna.json`, `turbo.json`, `moon.yml`) SHALL NOT exist unless one of them replaces Vite+ in a future rebind change.
+
+Bun retains its identity as the package manager and workspace resolver — Bun's `bun install`, `bun.lock`, and `--filter` operations are NOT considered competing orchestration tools because Bun's role and Vite+'s role are non-overlapping (package manager vs task-graph orchestrator).
+
+#### Scenario: No competing orchestrator configs
+
+- **WHEN** listing root configuration files
+- **THEN** Vite+'s configuration (`vite.config.ts` or equivalent) is the only task-graph-orchestrator configuration file present
+- **AND** `nx.json`, `lerna.json`, `turbo.json`, `moon.yml` do NOT exist
+- **AND** `package.json` `devDependencies` does not contain entries for `nx`, `@nrwl/*`, `lerna`, `turbo`, `@moonrepo/*`, or any equivalent orchestrator other than `vite-plus`
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The script-execution and workspace-resolution surfaces defined in this spec are realized through the orchestrator binding designated by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding uses `bun` exclusively (`bun install`, `bun run`, `bun run --filter`, `bun test`). A future rebind to a different orchestrator (e.g., Vite+ via the `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` follow-on policy change) SHALL preserve every requirement in this spec that is not explicitly modified by the rebind change.
+
+The package-manager identity (Bun) and workspace-resolution mechanism (Bun's workspaces feature) SHALL remain owned by this spec regardless of orchestrator rebind. The orchestration semantics — specifically, the choice of which CLI dispatches tasks across the workspace — are owned by `orchestration-architecture` and may move out of `bun run`'s purview when a rebind lands.
+
+#### Scenario: Bun remains the package manager after orchestrator rebind
+
+- **WHEN** a cutover follow-on rebinds the orchestrator (e.g., to `vp run`)
+- **THEN** `bun install` continues to resolve workspace dependencies
+- **AND** `bun.lock` continues to be the lockfile of record
+- **AND** the workspace topology defined in this spec is preserved

+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Multi-target prop combinations produce correct CSS through Lightning CSS
+
+For every combination of multi-target shorthand + overlapping longhand + true shorthand, the CSS emitted by the Rust pipeline and then consolidated by Lightning CSS `transform()` SHALL produce the same computed property values as the un-consolidated CSS would in a browser.
+
+#### Scenario: px + pl — tier 1 multi-target + tier 2 longhand
+
+- **GIVEN** a component with `styles({ px: 4, pl: 8 })`
+- **WHEN** the emitted CSS is passed through Lightning CSS `transform({ minify: false })`
+- **THEN** the consolidated output SHALL have `padding-left` equal to the `pl` value (longhand wins over multi-target's padding-left)
+- **AND** `padding-right` SHALL equal the `px` value
+
+#### Scenario: py + pt — tier 1 multi-target + tier 2 longhand
+
+- **GIVEN** a component with `styles({ py: 4, pt: 8 })`
+- **WHEN** the emitted CSS is passed through Lightning CSS
+- **THEN** `padding-top` SHALL equal the `pt` value (longhand wins)
+- **AND** `padding-bottom` SHALL equal the `py` value
+
+#### Scenario: p + px + pl — all three tiers
+
+- **GIVEN** a component with `styles({ p: 12, px: 8, pl: 4 })`
+- **WHEN** the emitted CSS is passed through Lightning CSS
+- **THEN** `padding-left` SHALL equal the `pl` value (tier 2 wins)
+- **AND** `padding-right` SHALL equal the `px` value (tier 1 wins over tier 0)
+- **AND** `padding-top` and `padding-bottom` SHALL equal the `p` value (tier 0, uncontested)
+
+#### Scenario: px + py + pt — two tier 1 props + tier 2 override
+
+- **GIVEN** a component with `styles({ px: 4, py: 4, pt: 8 })`
+- **WHEN** the emitted CSS is passed through Lightning CSS
+- **THEN** `padding-top` SHALL equal the `pt` value (tier 2 wins over py's padding-top)
+- **AND** all other sides SHALL equal the `px`/`py` values
+
+#### Scenario: Margin equivalents
+
+- **GIVEN** components with `styles({ mx: 4, ml: 8 })`, `styles({ m: 12, mx: 8, ml: 4 })`, `styles({ my: 4, mt: 8 })`
+- **WHEN** the emitted CSS is passed through Lightning CSS
+- **THEN** the same tier precedence rules SHALL apply as for padding (tier 2 > tier 1 > tier 0)
+
+### Requirement: esbuild minification preserves the same computed values
+
+For the same set of multi-target prop combinations, CSS passed through esbuild `transform({ minify: true, loader: 'css' })` SHALL produce the same computed property values as the original un-consolidated CSS.
+
+#### Scenario: esbuild consolidation matches Lightning CSS
+
+- **GIVEN** any component CSS from the round-trip test fixtures
+- **WHEN** passed through both Lightning CSS and esbuild
+- **THEN** the computed padding/margin values SHALL be identical between the two outputs
+
+### Requirement: Test uses real NAPI pipeline
+
+The round-trip test SHALL exercise the real Rust extraction pipeline via `analyzeProject()` rather than hand-constructing CSS. This validates the actual tier ordering, multi-target expansion, and theme resolution — the full bridge from JS object to CSS.
+
+#### Scenario: Fixture components defined with real builder chains
+
+- **GIVEN** test fixture files using `El.styles({...}).asElement('div')` with multi-target prop combinations
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called on the fixture files
+- **THEN** the returned manifest SHALL contain CSS for each component
+- **AND** that CSS SHALL be used as input for the Lightning CSS and esbuild round-trip assertions

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Merge parent and child chain configurations
+
+The chain merger SHALL combine a parent chain's evaluated configuration with a child extension's stages using immutable merge semantics. For each configuration field (baseStyles, variants, statesConfig, activeGroups, custom), the merged result SHALL be equivalent to `merge({}, parent.field, child.field)` where `merge` performs deep recursive merging.
+
+#### Scenario: Merge base styles
+
+- **WHEN** parent has `styles({ padding: 10, display: 'flex' })` and child has `styles({ padding: 16, color: 'red' })`
+- **THEN** merged base styles SHALL be `{ padding: 16, display: 'flex', color: 'red' }` — child values override parent on conflict, parent values preserved otherwise
+
+#### Scenario: Merge variants additively
+
+- **WHEN** parent has `variant({ prop: 'size', variants: { sm: {...}, lg: {...} } })` and child adds `variant({ prop: 'color', variants: { red: {...}, blue: {...} } })`
+- **THEN** merged variants SHALL contain BOTH the `size` variant (from parent) AND the `color` variant (from child)
+
+#### Scenario: Merge states additively
+
+- **WHEN** parent has `states({ loading: { opacity: 0 } })` and child has `states({ disabled: { cursor: 'not-allowed' } })`
+- **THEN** merged states SHALL contain BOTH `loading` (from parent) AND `disabled` (from child)
+
+#### Scenario: Override variant option
+
+- **WHEN** parent has `variant({ variants: { fill: { bg: 'blue' } } })` and child has `variant({ variants: { fill: { bg: 'green' } } })`
+- **THEN** merged variant `fill` SHALL have `bg: 'green'` — child overrides parent within the same variant option
+
+#### Scenario: Merge groups additively
+
+- **WHEN** parent has `groups({ space: true, layout: true })` and child has `groups({ color: true })`
+- **THEN** merged active groups SHALL be `{ space: true, layout: true, color: true }`
+
+### Requirement: Topological ordering for multi-level chains
+
+The chain merger SHALL process extension chains in topological order (parents before children). For a chain A → B → C, the merger SHALL first merge A+B to produce AB, then merge AB+C to produce ABC.
+
+#### Scenario: Three-level extension chain
+
+- **WHEN** A has `styles({ p: 8 })`, B extends A with `styles({ m: 4 })`, C extends B with `styles({ p: 16 })`
+- **THEN** the merged chain for C SHALL have `{ p: 16, m: 4 }` — C's padding overrides A's, B's margin preserved
+
+#### Scenario: Cycle detection
+
+- **WHEN** the provenance graph contains a cycle (A extends B, B extends A)
+- **THEN** the merger SHALL report an error and mark both components as non-extractable
+
+### Requirement: Merged component gets own class name
+
+Each component in an extension chain SHALL receive its own unique class name, even though it inherits CSS from its parent. The class name is based on the component's own binding name and a content hash of its merged chain.
+
+#### Scenario: Extended component class name
+
+- **WHEN** parent `Button` has class `animus-Button-abc12345` and child `PrimaryButton` extends it
+- **THEN** PrimaryButton SHALL have its own class `animus-PrimaryButton-def67890` (different hash because merged chain is different)

+## Chain Visualizer Specification
+
+### Requirement: Active step displays glow
+
+The active step button SHALL render with a `box-shadow` glow using `{colors.fire.500/12}` to make the active step visually unambiguous without animation.
+
+#### Scenario: Step activated
+
+- **WHEN** user clicks a chain step
+- **THEN** that step displays a box-shadow glow and the previously active step's glow is removed
+
+### Requirement: Detail panel shows step content
+
+The ChainVisualizer SHALL render a detail panel below the chain strip that displays the active step's description and code example in a split-pane layout.
+
+#### Scenario: Step selected shows detail
+
+- **WHEN** user clicks a chain step with description and code data
+- **THEN** a panel below the strip shows description text on the left and a SyntaxBlock code example on the right
+
+#### Scenario: Step changes update detail
+
+- **WHEN** user clicks a different step
+- **THEN** the detail panel content updates to show the newly selected step's description and code
+
+### Requirement: Cascade specificity bar
+
+The detail panel SHALL include a cascade specificity visualization showing relative cascade depth per step as a series of proportionally-sized bars.
+
+#### Scenario: Bar reflects active position
+
+- **WHEN** step 3 of 6 is active
+- **THEN** bars 1-3 are accent-colored (with bar 3 brightest), bars 4-6 are ghost-colored, and bar heights increase left to right

+- **THEN** an amber "repeatable" badge is displayed
+
+#### Scenario: Once-only step
+
+- **WHEN** a step has `repeatable: false`
+- **THEN** a neutral "once" badge is displayed

+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: NAPI binary verification steps in verify job
+
+The `verify` CI job SHALL include two verification steps after binary download and `bun install` that confirm the NAPI binary is present and loadable from both the repo root and the `_integration` test context. The steps MUST run before any build or test execution.
+
+#### Scenario: Binary present and loadable from repo root
+
+- **WHEN** the verify job downloads the NAPI binary and runs `bun install`
+- **THEN** the "Verify NAPI binary (repo root context)" step lists the `.node` file with size and prints the NAPI export keys via `require('./packages/extract/index.js')`
+
+#### Scenario: Binary present and loadable from \_integration context
+
+- **WHEN** the verify job downloads the NAPI binary and runs `bun install`
+- **THEN** the "Verify NAPI binary (\_integration context)" step confirms `analyzeProject` is a function when loaded via `require('../../extract/index.js')` from the `packages/_integration/__tests__` working directory
+
+#### Scenario: Binary missing or corrupt
+
+- **WHEN** the `.node` file is missing or fails to load
+- **THEN** the verification step fails with a clear error message before any test execution

+# code-hygiene Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+TBD - created by archiving change add-code-hygiene-protocol. Update Purpose after archive.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Single flag-driven hygiene entrypoint
+
+The repository SHALL provide a single code-hygiene entrypoint invokable as `bun run hygiene` (or equivalently `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`) that accepts `--mode`, `--scope`, `--base`, and `--iterations` flags. The entrypoint SHALL be usable identically by humans and by agents through the Bash tool — no agent-specific wrapper SHALL be required.
+
+#### Scenario: Default invocation reports changed-scope without mutating
+
+- **WHEN** a user or agent runs `bun run hygiene` with no flags on a clean worktree
+- **THEN** the system SHALL run the cascade in scan mode against files changed vs `main`, print a `git diff --stat` + `git diff --name-status` style report, restore the worktree, and exit without retaining any mutation
+
+#### Scenario: Apply flag enables mutation
+
+- **WHEN** a user or agent runs `bun run hygiene --apply`
+- **THEN** the system SHALL run the cascade in fix mode against the changed-scope file set, retain mutations, and run the safety envelope
+
+#### Scenario: All flag widens scope to full repo
+
+- **WHEN** a user or agent runs `bun run hygiene --all`
+- **THEN** the system SHALL run the cascade against the full repository, not restricted by `git diff`
+
+### Requirement: Cascade is DELETE-only for dead declarations
+
+The cascade SHALL remove dead declarations through DELETION, not rename. This applies to unused imports, unused top-level `const` / `function` / `let` / `class` / `type alias` / `interface` / `enum` declarations, unused destructured binding elements, unused cross-file exports, unused files, and unused `package.json` dependencies.
+
+Earlier revisions of this requirement included `unused private class members` in the deletion scope. The cascade's current linter binding (oxlint) provides `no-unused-private-class-members` which fires only on `#field` syntax (per ESLint 1:1 spec); it has empty scope on the codebase's TypeScript `private`-keyword syntax. The capability is dormant and SHALL be reintroduced (or scoped to `#field`) only if the codebase or linter binding changes.
+
+#### Scenario: Unused top-level const is deleted
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `const unusedConst = 1;` that is not referenced anywhere in the file and not exported
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode against that file
+- **THEN** the resulting file SHALL NOT contain the `unusedConst` declaration (the statement is removed, not renamed to `_unusedConst`)
+
+#### Scenario: Unused named import is deleted
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `import { usedFn, unusedFn } from 'foo';` where `unusedFn` is not referenced
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the resulting file SHALL contain `import { usedFn } from 'foo';` with `unusedFn` removed
+
+### Requirement: Side-effect imports are preserved
+
+The cascade SHALL NOT remove side-effect imports (`import 'module-name';` without bindings). The active linter does not flag side-effect imports as unused by design, and the home-roll deleter SHALL NOT augment the linter's detection to include them.
+
+#### Scenario: Side-effect import survives cascade
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `import 'some-side-effect-module';` at the top
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the resulting file SHALL still contain that import statement
+
+### Requirement: Positional function parameters preserve arity via rename, not delete
+
+The cascade SHALL NOT DELETE positional function parameters. When the active linter offers an unsafe auto-fix that renames unused positional parameters to `_`-prefixed names, the cascade SHALL leave that rule's reporting as a warning (not auto-applied) for human review; it SHALL NOT auto-rename positional parameters as part of the cascade.
+
+oxlint's `no-unused-vars` rule does not offer rename-as-fix for positional parameters; under the oxlint binding, parameters are reported as errors and left for human resolution. The home-roll deleter (Layer C) SHALL NOT delete positional parameters because doing so would change function arity, which is a public-API contract.
+
+#### Scenario: Positional param is not deleted
+
+- **WHEN** a function `function f(a: number, unusedB: string) { return a; }` is present
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the function signature SHALL still contain two parameters (arity = 2) after the cascade
+
+### Requirement: Destructured binding elements are deleted when unused
+
+The cascade SHALL delete unused binding elements from destructuring patterns (object and array) because these are intra-file dead artifacts without an arity contract. The active linter (oxlint) detects these via `no-unused-vars` but offers no fix that removes the dead binding element while preserving the surrounding pattern; the home-roll deleter (Layer C) closes this gap.
+
+#### Scenario: Unused destructured field is deleted
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `const { a, b } = obj;` where `a` is not referenced and `b` is used
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the resulting file SHALL contain `const { b } = obj;`
+
+### Requirement: Cascade iterates to convergence or iteration cap
+
+The cascade SHALL run layers A (linter safe-fix + import removal), C (home-roll deleter), D (knip fix), D1 (reconcile-after-knip) in sequence, and SHALL repeat the full A→C→D→D1 sequence until either (a) the final iteration's deletion-receipt count is zero (semantic convergence), or (b) the iteration cap (default 5, configurable via `--iterations`) is reached. The convergence verdict SHALL be derived from iteration-tagged receipts in `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl`, not from `git diff` fingerprint stability — fingerprint stability is vulnerable to idempotent Layer A churn around whitespace, mtime, and `.gitattributes` filters and SHALL NOT be the basis for the convergence decision.
+
+Earlier revisions of the cascade included Layer B (linter unsafe-scoped delete). Layer B was removed when the cascade rebound to a linter whose private-class-member rule has empty scope on the codebase's `private`-keyword syntax. The A→C→D→D1 sequence preserves the cascade's original semantic contract.
+
+#### Scenario: Cascade converges in fewer iterations than the cap
+
+- **WHEN** fix mode runs and the deletion-receipt count for some iteration N is zero (no receipts where `verb="delete"`)
+- **AND** N is less than `--iterations`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL report `converged in N iterations` and exit zero
+
+#### Scenario: Iteration cap is hit but final iteration produced no deletions
+
+- **WHEN** fix mode runs with `--iterations=N` and iteration N's deletion-receipt count is zero
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL emit `INFO: cascade settled at iteration cap (idempotent Layer A churn caused fingerprint drift)` and exit zero
+- **AND** the orchestrator SHALL NOT emit a WARN for this case
+
+#### Scenario: Iteration cap is hit with persistent semantic deletions
+
+- **WHEN** fix mode runs with `--iterations=N` and iteration N has at least one receipt with `verb="delete"` from layer C, D, or D1
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL emit `WARN: cascade did not converge — Layer <C|D|D1> still deleting at iteration N` and exit non-zero
+
+### Requirement: Safety envelope runs compile and lint after apply with no auto-revert
+
+After any fix-mode cascade run (whether converged or cap-hit), the orchestrator SHALL run `bun run verify:compile` followed by `bun run verify:lint`. On any failure, the orchestrator SHALL print the failing output, the current `git status`, a list of hygiene mutations, and recovery options; it SHALL exit non-zero. It SHALL NOT automatically revert the mutations.
+
+#### Scenario: Envelope passes after apply
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade applies successfully and both `verify:compile` and `verify:lint` pass
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL print a success summary and exit zero
+
+#### Scenario: Envelope fails after apply
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade applies and either `verify:compile` or `verify:lint` fails
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL print the failure output, `git status`, the mutation file list, and a three-line recovery hint (discard via `git reset --hard HEAD`, fix forward, or partial-keep via `git add -p`)
+- **AND** the orchestrator SHALL exit non-zero WITHOUT reverting any mutation
+
+### Requirement: Scope=changed derives knip workspaces from git-diff
+
+In `scope=changed` mode, the orchestrator SHALL derive knip's `--workspace` argument list by: (1) taking the output of `git diff --name-only "$BASE" -- '*.ts' '*.tsx' '*.js' '*.mjs' '*.cjs'`, (2) for each file, locating the nearest ancestor directory containing a `package.json` with a `"name"` field, (3) de-duplicating the name set, and (4) invoking knip with one `--workspace <name>` flag per distinct name.
+
+#### Scenario: Single-workspace diff scopes knip to one workspace
+
+- **WHEN** `git diff --name-only main` returns only files under `packages/system/src/`
+- **AND** the orchestrator runs in `scope=changed` mode
+- **THEN** knip is invoked with exactly one `--workspace @animus-ui/system` flag
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-workspace diff scopes knip to the union
+
+- **WHEN** the diff spans `packages/system/src/` and `packages/vite-plugin/src/`
+- **THEN** knip is invoked with both `--workspace @animus-ui/system` and `--workspace @animus-ui/vite-plugin`
+
+### Requirement: Scan mode requires a clean worktree
+
+Scan mode SHALL refuse to run on a dirty worktree. "Dirty" is defined as `git status --porcelain` returning non-empty output (untracked OR modified files). On detection of a dirty worktree, scan mode SHALL abort with a non-zero exit code and an error directing the user to commit or stash before re-running.
+
+#### Scenario: Scan refuses a dirty worktree
+
+- **WHEN** `mode=scan` and `git status --porcelain` is non-empty
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL exit non-zero and print: "scan mode requires clean worktree. Commit or stash changes and re-run."
+
+### Requirement: Scan mode provides a recovery snapshot
+
+When scan mode runs on a clean worktree, the orchestrator SHALL capture a `git stash create` snapshot SHA before the cascade runs, and SHALL print that SHA at end-of-run with instructions for recovery via `git stash store`.
+
+#### Scenario: Snapshot SHA is printed after scan
+
+- **WHEN** scan mode completes on a clean worktree
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL print a line of the form "recovery snapshot: <sha> (recover via: `git stash store <sha>` then `git stash pop`)"
+
+### Requirement: Scan mode restores worktree after reporting
+
+After scan mode runs the cascade destructively and captures the report, the orchestrator SHALL restore the worktree to its pre-run state via `git reset --hard HEAD` followed by `git clean -fd`.
+
+#### Scenario: Scan restores tracked and untracked state
+
+- **WHEN** scan mode has completed its cascade and captured the diff as a report
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL run `git reset --hard HEAD && git clean -fd` before exiting
+- **AND** `git status --porcelain` after exit SHALL be empty
+
+### Requirement: code-hygiene is excluded from CI workflows
+
+The code-hygiene capability SHALL NOT be invoked from any CI workflow file under `.github/workflows/`. Any addition of a `bun run hygiene` or `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` step to a CI workflow would violate the end-of-work-only contract and SHALL be rejected in code review.
+
+#### Scenario: No hygiene invocation in CI
+
+- **WHEN** the repo's `.github/workflows/*.yaml` files are inspected
+- **THEN** no step invokes `bun run hygiene`, `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`, or any hygiene orchestrator path
+
+### Requirement: Preconditions fail loud with actionable messages
+
+The orchestrator SHALL require knip, the active linter (oxlint via vite-plus), and typescript to be available; it SHALL detect missing tooling at startup and exit non-zero with an actionable "Run: <command>" message in the format established by `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh`.
+
+#### Scenario: knip missing emits actionable error
+
+- **WHEN** `knip` is not installed (not present in `node_modules/`)
+- **AND** the orchestrator starts
+- **THEN** it SHALL exit non-zero with the message "ERROR: knip missing. Run: bun install"
+
+#### Scenario: Linter missing emits actionable error
+
+- **WHEN** the active linter binary is not reachable via `bunx vp lint --version`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL exit non-zero with the message "ERROR: vp lint missing. Run: bun install"
+
+### Requirement: Rename-as-fix is never auto-applied for top-level declarations
+
+The cascade SHALL NOT invoke any linter auto-fix that renames unused top-level declarations (e.g., to `_`-prefix). Rename-as-fix is rejected for top-level declarations because deletion is the authoritative semantic — renamed declarations are still dead code, just disguised. The home-roll deleter (Layer C) is the authoritative semantic for top-level dead-decl removal.
+
+The current linter binding (oxlint) does not offer rename-as-fix for top-level declarations, so the invariant is naturally preserved without explicit exclusion. Future linter rebinds SHALL preserve this invariant: any rule whose auto-fix renames top-level declarations to `_`-prefix SHALL be excluded from cascade auto-fix scope.
+
+#### Scenario: Top-level unused const is not renamed
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const unusedConst = 1;` (not referenced, not exported)
+- **AND** the cascade runs in fix mode
+- **THEN** the resulting file SHALL NOT contain `const _unusedConst = 1;` (no rename-to-underscore occurs)
+- **AND** the `unusedConst` declaration SHALL be absent from the resulting file entirely (deleted by Layer C)
+
+### Requirement: Diagnostic-logging-stripping rules are excluded from cascade auto-fix
+
+Cascade layers that invoke the active linter's auto-fix capability SHALL NOT enable rules whose auto-fix removes diagnostic logging output (e.g., a `no-console` rule in any linter). The cascade preserves `console.log` / `console.warn` / `console.error` calls as runtime-observable diagnostic surfaces; the linter's safe-fix configuration in cascade layers MUST exclude any rule whose fix strips these calls.
+
+This requirement is linter-neutral and applies to any cascade layer using auto-fix — historically Layer B (biome `--unsafe` scoped to specific rules), now Layer A (oxlint `--fix-suggestions`). It survives layer-set restructuring as long as some cascade layer invokes auto-fix.
+
+#### Scenario: console.warn survives cascade auto-fix layer
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `console.warn('diagnostic')` as a genuine runtime-observable line
+- **AND** the cascade's auto-fix layer runs against that file
+- **THEN** the `console.warn` call SHALL remain in the resulting file
+
+### Requirement: Cascade emits deletion-receipts to a structured audit file
+
+The cascade SHALL emit one structured JSON record per layer-applied operation to `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` (newline-delimited JSON, one record per line). The file SHALL be truncated at orchestrator startup. Each record SHALL conform to schema version 1 with the fields `v` (integer, schema version, `1` for v1), `iter` (integer, cascade iteration starting at 1), `layer` (one of `"A"`, `"C"`, `"D"`, `"D1"`), `verb` (one of `"delete"`, `"format"`, `"stub"`, `"drift-suspected"`), `target` (string identifying file path with optional line or export name), and `kind` (string semantic category such as `"named-import"`, `"const-decl"`, `"file"`, `"dependency"`, `"code-drift"`). Records MAY include an `extras` object for layer-specific metadata. The file SHALL be append-only within a single run; concurrent writes from different layers within the same iteration SHALL NOT occur (layers run sequentially).
+
+#### Scenario: Layer C deletion produces a receipt
+
+- **WHEN** Layer C deletes an unused top-level `const` declaration at `packages/system/src/util.ts:42`
+- **THEN** `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` SHALL contain a line equivalent to `{"v":1,"iter":1,"layer":"C","verb":"delete","target":"packages/system/src/util.ts:42","kind":"const-decl","extras":{...}}`
+
+#### Scenario: Layer D file removal produces a file-kind receipt
+
+- **WHEN** Layer D removes the entire file `packages/system/src/orphan.ts`
+- **THEN** `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` SHALL contain a record where `layer="D"`, `verb="delete"`, `kind="file"`, and `target="packages/system/src/orphan.ts"`
+
+#### Scenario: Receipts file is truncated at run start
+
+- **WHEN** the orchestrator starts a fix-mode run and `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` from a prior run exists
+- **THEN** the file SHALL be truncated to zero bytes before any layer runs
+- **AND** records from prior runs SHALL NOT appear in the post-run file
+
+#### Scenario: Each receipt is valid JSON on its own line
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade completes and `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` contains N records
+- **THEN** each line SHALL be parseable as a standalone JSON object
+- **AND** every line SHALL include the required fields `v`, `iter`, `layer`, `verb`, `target`, `kind`
+
+### Requirement: Layer D high-volume removals trigger an informational nudge
+
+The orchestrator SHALL emit a `NOTE` line in the run summary when the receipt stream contains at least one record matching `layer="D"` AND `kind="file"`, OR at least five records matching `layer="D"` AND `kind∈{"export-clause","export-default"}`. The NOTE SHALL inform the user that build-time-only consumers (Vite virtual modules, MDX, custom plugins, the Rust extractor) are invisible to knip and SHALL recommend running `verify:build:*` before committing. The NOTE SHALL NOT change the exit code; it is informational only.
+
+#### Scenario: Single Layer D file removal triggers the NOTE
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade completes with one `layer="D" kind="file"` receipt
+- **THEN** the run summary SHALL include a `NOTE` line referencing build-time-only consumers and recommending `verify:build:*`
+
+#### Scenario: Five Layer D export removals trigger the NOTE
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade completes with five or more `layer="D" kind∈{"export-clause","export-default"}` receipts
+- **THEN** the run summary SHALL include the same NOTE
+
+#### Scenario: Two Layer D export removals do not trigger the NOTE
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade completes with exactly two `layer="D" kind="export-clause"` receipts and no file removals
+- **THEN** the run summary SHALL NOT include the Layer D NOTE
+
+### Requirement: Layer C code-drift is detected at startup
+
+When Layer C (`delete-unused.ts`) reads the active linter's JSON diagnostic output and finds diagnostics present but ZERO of those diagnostics match `TARGET_CODES` after normalization, Layer C SHALL emit a sentinel receipt with `layer="C"`, `verb="drift-suspected"`, `kind="code-drift"`, and `extras.codesSeen` containing the list of distinct codes observed in the diagnostic stream. The orchestrator's summary SHALL surface this as a `WARN` indicating possible linter rule renaming and listing the codes seen.
+
+This requirement is linter-neutral. Under biome the discriminator was the `category` field; under oxlint it is the `code` field (with `eslint(...)` wrapper unwrap normalization). The drift-detection mechanism is preserved across linter rebinds.
+
+#### Scenario: Linter diagnostics with no matching codes produce a drift receipt
+
+- **WHEN** the active linter reports five diagnostics all under code `eslint(no-renamed-rule)` (a renamed rule)
+- **AND** Layer C's `TARGET_CODES` includes only `eslint(no-unused-vars)`
+- **THEN** Layer C SHALL emit one receipt with `verb="drift-suspected"` and `extras.codesSeen=["eslint(no-renamed-rule)"]`
+- **AND** the run summary SHALL include `WARN: oxlint diagnostics present but none matched known codes — oxlint may have renamed. Codes seen: eslint(no-renamed-rule)`
+
+#### Scenario: Linter diagnostics with at least one matching code do not trigger drift
+
+- **WHEN** the active linter reports diagnostics including at least one under a known target code
+- **THEN** Layer C SHALL NOT emit a `drift-suspected` receipt for that iteration
+- **AND** the run summary SHALL NOT include the code-drift WARN
+
+### Requirement: Cross-workspace dist-staleness is a precondition before fix mode
+
+In fix mode, the orchestrator SHALL verify before running any cascade layer that each targeted workspace's `dist/` artifacts are not older than the latest file under its `src/**`. Targeted workspaces SHALL be derived using the same workspace-derivation logic as `Scope=changed derives knip workspaces from git-diff` (in `scope=changed`) or all workspaces with a published `dist/` entry (in `scope=all`). On detection of any stale `dist/`, fix mode SHALL exit non-zero with an actionable error in the format established by `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh`. In scan mode, the same staleness condition SHALL emit a `WARN` and the cascade SHALL continue (preserving preview ergonomics).
+
+#### Scenario: Stale dist in fix mode aborts before cascade
+
+- **WHEN** `vp run hygiene --apply` is invoked
+- **AND** `packages/system/dist/index.js` mtime is older than the latest mtime under `packages/system/src/`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL exit non-zero with the message `ERROR: packages/system/dist stale vs src. Run: vp run build:ts`
+- **AND** no Layer A/C/D/D1 invocation SHALL occur
+
+#### Scenario: Stale dist in scan mode warns and continues
+
+- **WHEN** `vp run hygiene` (default scan mode) is invoked
+- **AND** any targeted workspace has a stale `dist/`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL print a `WARN: <pkg>/dist stale vs src` line and continue with the cascade
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace without a dist entry is skipped
+
+- **WHEN** a targeted workspace's `package.json` has no `main` or `module` field
+- **THEN** the dist-staleness check SHALL skip that workspace
+- **AND** SHALL NOT cause an error or warning
+
+### Requirement: Reconciler partial-clause edits preserve original-source spans
+
+When `reconcile-after-knip.ts` removes individual elements from an `export { a, b, c }` re-export clause where one or more elements have become stale (target file emptied, target export removed, target file deleted), the reconciler SHALL apply span-preserving deletions to the original source rather than reconstructing the clause text. Per-element trivia (leading JSDoc, linter-disable directives in the active or historical syntax — e.g., `oxlint-disable-next-line`, `biome-ignore` — comments, per-element `type` modifiers) for retained elements SHALL be preserved exactly as it appeared in the original source.
+
+#### Scenario: JSDoc above a retained export element is preserved
+
+- **GIVEN** a barrel containing `export { /** doc-A */ a, b, c } from './m';` where only `b` is stale
+- **WHEN** the reconciler runs
+- **THEN** the resulting source SHALL contain `export { /** doc-A */ a, c } from './m';` (or equivalent with `b` and its leading separator removed) with the JSDoc above `a` intact
+
+#### Scenario: Per-element type modifier is preserved
+
+- **GIVEN** a barrel containing `export { type Foo, bar, baz } from './m';` where only `baz` is stale
+- **WHEN** the reconciler runs
+- **THEN** the resulting source SHALL contain `export { type Foo, bar } from './m';`
+
+#### Scenario: Linter-disable directive on a retained element is preserved
+
+- **GIVEN** a barrel containing `export { /* biome-ignore lint/correctness/X: reason */ a, b } from './m';` where only `b` is stale
+- **WHEN** the reconciler runs
+- **THEN** the directive comment above `a` SHALL remain in the resulting source
+
+#### Scenario: oxlint-disable directive on a retained element is preserved
+
+- **GIVEN** a barrel containing `export { /* oxlint-disable-next-line correctness/X -- reason */ a, b } from './m';` where only `b` is stale
+- **WHEN** the reconciler runs
+- **THEN** the directive comment above `a` SHALL remain in the resulting source
+
+### Requirement: --apply --all requires explicit confirmation
+
+When the orchestrator is invoked with both `--apply` and `--all`, it SHALL require explicit confirmation before proceeding. In a TTY, the orchestrator SHALL prompt `Type 'apply-all' to continue: ` and SHALL refuse to proceed unless stdin returns exactly `apply-all`. In non-TTY (agent or scripted) invocation, the orchestrator SHALL require the additional flag `--yes-apply-all`; absence of this flag SHALL produce a non-zero exit with an actionable error message identifying the flag. The daily-driver `--apply` (changed scope) SHALL NOT require any confirmation.
+
+#### Scenario: Interactive --apply --all without confirmation aborts
+
+- **WHEN** a user runs `bun run hygiene --apply --all` in a TTY
+- **AND** types `no` (or anything other than `apply-all`) at the prompt
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL exit non-zero without running any layer
+
+#### Scenario: Non-TTY --apply --all without --yes-apply-all aborts
+
+- **WHEN** an agent invokes `bun run hygiene --apply --all` (non-TTY) without `--yes-apply-all`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL exit non-zero with `ERROR: --apply --all requires --yes-apply-all in non-interactive context`
+
+#### Scenario: --apply (changed scope) does not prompt
+
+- **WHEN** a user or agent runs `bun run hygiene --apply`
+- **THEN** the orchestrator SHALL proceed without prompting and without requiring `--yes-apply-all`
+
+### Requirement: Help text reflects resolved environment-variable defaults
+
+The orchestrator's help text (`bun run hygiene --help`) SHALL be constructed AFTER environment-variable resolution and SHALL show the resolved default for any flag that has an env-var override. Specifically, the `--base` line SHALL include `(env: HYGIENE_BASE_REF, currently: <resolved-value>)` and the `--iterations` line SHALL include `(env: HYGIENE_ITERATIONS, currently: <resolved-value>)`. The help text SHALL NOT show stale or hard-coded defaults that diverge from the values the run will actually use.
+
+#### Scenario: Help shows env-var-overridden base ref
+
+- **WHEN** `HYGIENE_BASE_REF=develop bun run hygiene --help` is invoked
+- **THEN** the `--base` line SHALL contain `currently: develop`
+
+#### Scenario: Help shows hard-coded default when env var is unset
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run hygiene --help` is invoked with no `HYGIENE_BASE_REF` set
+- **THEN** the `--base` line SHALL contain `currently: main`
+
+### Requirement: Receipts file is the postmortem audit artifact
+
+When the safety envelope (`verify:compile` followed by `verify:lint`) fails after a fix-mode cascade, the orchestrator's failure output SHALL reference `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` as the structured audit trail of "what was deleted by which layer in which iteration." The receipts file SHALL persist after the failure (no automatic cleanup) and SHALL be valid JSONL parseable line-by-line, including in the case where the orchestrator was interrupted mid-cascade.
+
+#### Scenario: Envelope failure references the receipts file
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade applies, `verify:compile` fails, and the orchestrator prepares its failure summary
+- **THEN** the failure output SHALL include a line directing the user to `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` for the structured deletion log
+
+#### Scenario: Mid-cascade interrupt leaves valid partial JSONL
+
+- **WHEN** the cascade is interrupted with SIGINT during Layer D of iteration 2
+- **THEN** `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` SHALL be parseable as JSONL up to its last complete line
+- **AND** any partial trailing line SHALL be safely ignorable by line-by-line parsers
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The code-hygiene cascade structure (Layer A linter safe-fix + import removal → Layer C home-roll deleter → Layer D knip → Layer D1 reconcile-after-knip), the safety envelope, the scan/fix-mode contract, and the recovery-snapshot semantics defined in this spec SHALL be realized through the orchestrator binding designated by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding uses `vp run hygiene` (or equivalently `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`) and shells out to `vp lint` (oxlint) for Layer A and `knip` for Layer D.
+
+A future rebind to a different linter/formatter SHALL preserve the cascade structure: Layer A's safe-fix + import-removal semantics, Layer C's home-roll deleter (which closes the linter's intra-file dead-decl gap for top-level declarations and destructured binding elements), Layer D's knip-driven cross-file pruning, Layer D1's span-preserving reconcile-after-knip. The rebind MAY substitute the underlying tool for Layer A provided the layer's semantic contract is preserved.
+
+The end-of-work-only contract (`vp run hygiene` SHALL NOT appear in any CI workflow) is invariant under orchestrator rebind. The hygiene surface remains a human-or-agent-invoked tool, never a CI gate, regardless of which orchestrator dispatches it.
+
+Earlier revisions of the cascade included Layer B (linter unsafe-scoped delete). Layer B was removed when the cascade rebound to oxlint, whose `no-unused-private-class-members` rule fires only on `#field` syntax (per ESLint 1:1 spec) and therefore has empty scope on the codebase's `private`-keyword TypeScript code. Future rebinds MAY reintroduce a Layer B if the new linter offers a private-keyword-scoped rule with safe DELETE-only semantics; the cascade's invariants (safety envelope, end-of-work-only contract) hold regardless.
+
+#### Scenario: Cascade structure survives linter rebind
+
+- **WHEN** a future cutover rebinds the linter (e.g., oxlint → `<new-linter>`)
+- **THEN** Layer A continues to apply only safe-fix transformations + import removal
+- **AND** Layer C continues to delete intra-file dead declarations (top-level decls + destructured binding elements) the linter does not handle
+- **AND** Layer D continues to invoke `knip --fix` for cross-file pruning
+- **AND** Layer D1 continues to reconcile post-knip span-preserving fixups
+
+#### Scenario: End-of-work-only contract survives orchestrator rebind
+
+- **WHEN** any cutover follow-on rebinds the orchestrator or linter
+- **THEN** the hygiene entrypoint continues to be excluded from `.github/workflows/*.yaml` files
+- **AND** any addition of a hygiene step to CI is rejected in code review
+
+### Requirement: Hygiene Entrypoint Dispatched via vp run
+
+The single code-hygiene entrypoint defined elsewhere in this spec SHALL be dispatched through Vite+ as `vp run hygiene`. The canonical orchestrator-dispatch surface SHALL be `vp run hygiene` (with flags propagating: `vp run hygiene -- --apply`, `vp run hygiene -- --all`, etc.). The `hygiene` task name is defined ONLY in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` (not in `package.json` `scripts`) — `bun run hygiene` returns "script not found" post-migration by design (hard cutover). The direct shell invocation `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` continues to work unchanged for any caller that prefers shell-direct invocation.
+
+The hygiene-cascade structure (Layer A linter safe-fix + import removal → C home-roll deleter → D knip → D1 reconcile-after-knip), the safety envelope, the scan/fix-mode contract, and the recovery-snapshot semantics defined elsewhere in this spec are preserved verbatim. Vite+ wraps the existing `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` invocation — it does NOT reimplement any cascade logic.
+
+The end-of-work-only contract is invariant under any dispatch surface — `vp run hygiene`, `bun run hygiene`, and `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` all SHALL be excluded from `.github/workflows/*.yaml`. Adding any of these invocations to a CI workflow SHALL be rejected in code review regardless of which dispatch surface is used.
+
+#### Scenario: vp run hygiene wraps existing shell script
+
+- **WHEN** a user or agent runs `vp run hygiene` with no flags on a clean worktree
+- **THEN** vp invokes `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` as the task body
+- **AND** the script's scan-mode behavior is identical to direct `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` invocation (cascade runs against changed-scope, restores worktree, prints report, exits zero)
+- **AND** the script's stderr, stdout, and exit code are propagated unchanged
+
+#### Scenario: vp run hygiene -- --apply propagates flags
+
+- **WHEN** a user runs `vp run hygiene -- --apply`
+- **THEN** vp passes the `--apply` flag through to `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`
+- **AND** fix mode runs as documented (cascade applies, safety envelope runs, no auto-revert on failure)
+
+#### Scenario: bun run hygiene fails after cutover
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run hygiene` post-migration
+- **AND** `hygiene` is defined ONLY in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` (not in `package.json` `scripts`)
+- **THEN** bun emits its standard "script not found" error and exits non-zero
+- **AND** the canonical invocation path remains `vp run hygiene`
+
+#### Scenario: bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh continues to work
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer runs `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh` directly without going through vp or bun
+- **THEN** the script executes as before (vp dispatch is an additional surface, not a replacement)
+- **AND** the cascade behavior is identical
+
+#### Scenario: Hygiene remains excluded from CI under any dispatch surface
+
+- **WHEN** the repo's `.github/workflows/*.yaml` files are inspected
+- **THEN** no step invokes `vp run hygiene`, `bun run hygiene`, or `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`
+- **AND** the end-of-work-only contract holds regardless of which dispatch surface a workflow author might attempt

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Two-rule composed variant emission
+
+For each shared variant option on each child slot in a composed family, the extraction pipeline SHALL emit two CSS rules within `@layer variants.composed`: an inheritance rule and an override rule.
+
+#### Scenario: Inheritance rule structure
+
+- **WHEN** a composed family has Root with variant `size` (options: `sm`, `md`) and Child is a slot with a `size` variant
+- **THEN** the pipeline SHALL emit an inheritance rule: `.{root-class}--size-sm .{child-class} { ...child's size-sm declarations... }` for each option
+
+#### Scenario: Override rule structure
+
+- **WHEN** a composed family has Root with variant `size` and Child has a `size` variant
+- **THEN** the pipeline SHALL emit an override rule: `.{root-class} .{child-class}.{child-class}--size-sm { ...child's size-sm declarations... }` for each option
+
+#### Scenario: Specificity contract within composed sublayer
+
+- **WHEN** both the inheritance rule and override rule are emitted for the same variant option
+- **THEN** the inheritance rule SHALL have specificity (0,2,0) and the override rule SHALL have specificity (0,3,0) — a structural invariant of the selector shapes
+
+#### Scenario: Override beats inheritance by specificity
+
+- **WHEN** both inheritance and override rules match within `@layer variants.composed`
+- **THEN** the override rule SHALL win by specificity regardless of source order
+
+### Requirement: Composed rules reuse existing declarations
+
+The extraction pipeline SHALL NOT re-resolve styles for composed variant rules. Composed rules SHALL reuse the already-resolved variant declarations from the per-component extraction pass.
+
+#### Scenario: Declaration identity
+
+- **WHEN** Child has variant `size: sm` that resolves to `{ font-size: 0.875rem; padding: 4px 8px; }`
+- **THEN** both the inheritance rule and override rule for `size-sm` on that Child SHALL contain exactly those declarations
+
+### Requirement: Root scope class as family namespace
+
+The Root component's identity class SHALL appear in both composed rule selectors, providing family-scoped namespacing that prevents collision between multiple composed families on the same page.
+
+#### Scenario: Two families with same shared key
+
+- **WHEN** FamilyA (Root class `.animus-AccRoot-abc`) and FamilyB (Root class `.animus-TabRoot-def`) both share a `size` variant
+- **THEN** FamilyA's composed rules SHALL use `.animus-AccRoot-abc` as the scope class and FamilyB's SHALL use `.animus-TabRoot-def` — no selector collision
+
+### Requirement: Composed rules include pseudo-selectors
+
+Composed variant rules SHALL emit pseudo-selector declarations (`:hover`, `:focus`, etc.) alongside main declarations, using the same inheritance/override selector structure with the pseudo appended.
+
+#### Scenario: Hover declarations in composed rules
+
+- **WHEN** Child has variant `size: sm` with `:hover` declarations (e.g., `background-color: blue`)
+- **THEN** the inheritance rule SHALL emit `.{root-class}.{root-class}--size-sm .{child-class}:hover { background-color: blue }` and the override rule SHALL emit `.{root-class} .{child-class}.{child-class}--size-sm:hover { background-color: blue }`
+
+#### Scenario: Comma-separated pseudos
+
+- **WHEN** a variant option has pseudo `:hover, :focus`
+- **THEN** both composed rules SHALL expand to `.selector:hover, .selector:focus` for each rule
+
+### Requirement: Layer placement
+
+Composed variant rules SHALL be emitted within `@layer variants.composed` when sublayers are provisioned, or within `@layer variants` directly when no compose families exist.
+
+#### Scenario: Sublayered placement
+
+- **WHEN** composed variant rules are emitted and sublayers are provisioned
+- **THEN** they SHALL appear inside `@layer variants { @layer composed { ... } }`, separate from standalone variant rules in `@layer variants { @layer standalone { ... } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Flat placement without compose
+
+- **WHEN** no compose families exist in the project
+- **THEN** all variant rules SHALL appear inside `@layer variants { }` directly (unchanged behavior)
+
+### Requirement: Compose family extraction
+
+The extraction pipeline SHALL extract full family structure from `compose()` call AST: root binding, slot-to-binding mapping, and shared variant keys.
+
+#### Scenario: Family structure extraction
+
+- **WHEN** source contains `compose({ Root: CardRoot, Header: CardHeader }, { shared: { size: true } })`
+- **THEN** the extractor SHALL produce a family record with root binding `"CardRoot"`, slots `[("Root", "CardRoot"), ("Header", "CardHeader")]`, and shared keys `["size"]`
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple compose calls in one file
+
+- **WHEN** source contains two `compose()` calls
+- **THEN** each SHALL produce its own family record with independent structure
+
+### Requirement: Reconciler compose-family awareness
+
+The reconciler SHALL NOT prune variant options on child slots that are used via composition, even if those options do not appear as direct JSX props on the child.
+
+#### Scenario: Composed variant preserved
+
+- **WHEN** Child has variant `size` with options `sm`, `md`, `lg` and Child appears only inside a composed family (never standalone with direct `size` prop)
+- **THEN** the reconciler SHALL preserve all `size` variant options on Child (because Root may receive any option)
+
+#### Scenario: Standalone-only variant still pruned normally
+
+- **WHEN** Child has variant `color` that is NOT a shared key in any composed family, and `color="red"` never appears in JSX
+- **THEN** the reconciler SHALL prune the `color: red` variant option as normal
+
+### Requirement: Portal-mounted slot fallback (DEFERRED)
+
+Portal-mounted child slots (e.g., Radix Dialog content, Tooltip content) render outside the Root DOM subtree. CSS descendant selectors do not reach portaled content. When `context: true` is specified on the compose call, shared variant prop values SHALL be propagated via React context, which crosses portal boundaries. Non-portaled slots in the same family also receive context but CSS cascade remains the primary styling mechanism for in-DOM children.
+
+**Status**: Implemented via `context: true` option on compose().
+
+#### Scenario: Portaled slot receives shared variant via context
+
+- **WHEN** a composed family has `context: true` and a child slot renders via a portal (outside Root's DOM subtree)
+- **THEN** the slot SHALL receive shared variant prop values via `useContext`, and its variant runtime SHALL resolve them to the correct CSS classes
+
+#### Scenario: Non-portaled slots in context family use both mechanisms
+
+- **WHEN** a composed family has `context: true` and a child slot renders within the Root's DOM subtree
+- **THEN** the slot SHALL receive shared variant styling via BOTH CSS descendant selectors AND React context — CSS cascade is primary, context is redundant but harmless
+
+#### Scenario: Context-free families remain CSS-only
+
+- **WHEN** a composed family does NOT specify `context: true`
+- **THEN** portal-mounted child slots SHALL NOT receive shared variant styling — CSS descendant selectors cannot reach them and no context fallback exists
+
+### Requirement: Compose family extraction includes context flag
+
+The extraction pipeline SHALL extract the `context` boolean from `compose()` call AST alongside shared keys. `ComposeFamilyInfo` SHALL include a `context: bool` field.
+
+#### Scenario: Context flag extracted as true
+
+- **WHEN** source contains `compose({ Root: R, Child: C }, { shared: { size: true }, context: true })`
+- **THEN** the extractor SHALL produce a family record with `context: true`
+
+#### Scenario: Context flag defaults to false
+
+- **WHEN** source contains `compose({ Root: R, Child: C }, { shared: { size: true } })` without a `context` property
+- **THEN** the extractor SHALL produce a family record with `context: false`
+
+#### Scenario: Context flag does not affect CSS emission
+
+- **WHEN** a compose family has `context: true`
+- **THEN** the CSS generator SHALL emit the same two-rule composed variant CSS as a `context: false` family — CSS emission is unconditional

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: compose() API signature
+
+`compose()` SHALL accept two arguments: a `Slots` record mapping slot names to Animus components, and an options object with a `shared` config. It SHALL return a `ComposedFamily<Slots>` where each slot is a sealed `ForwardRefExoticComponent`.
+
+#### Scenario: Basic compose call
+
+- **WHEN** `compose({ Root: CardRoot, Header: CardHeader, Body: CardBody }, { shared: { density: true } })` is called
+- **THEN** the result SHALL have keys `Root`, `Header`, `Body`, each mapped to a `ForwardRefExoticComponent` with the slot's original props
+
+#### Scenario: Composed output is sealed
+
+- **WHEN** a composed family is created
+- **THEN** the output components SHALL NOT have `.extend()` or any builder methods — compose is a one-way door from builder-land to component-land
+
+### Requirement: Root convention — literal "Root" key
+
+The Root slot SHALL be identified by the exact key `"Root"` (PascalCase, case-sensitive). Any other casing SHALL NOT be treated as Root.
+
+#### Scenario: PascalCase Root detected
+
+- **WHEN** `compose({ Root: RootComp, Child: ChildComp }, { shared: {} })` is called
+- **THEN** the `Root` slot SHALL be identified as the family root (CSS cascade source)
+
+#### Scenario: Lowercase root NOT detected as Root
+
+- **WHEN** `compose({ root: RootComp, child: ChildComp }, { shared: {} })` is called
+- **THEN** no slot SHALL be treated as Root — `root` is treated as a regular child slot
+
+#### Scenario: Type-level Root extraction
+
+- **WHEN** `SharedConfig<Slots>` is computed for slots containing a `"Root"` key
+- **THEN** the shared key options SHALL be derived from Root's variant keys using direct `Slots['Root']` lookup, not case-insensitive matching
+
+### Requirement: Shared variant propagation via CSS cascade
+
+Root SHALL apply shared variant values as CSS classes on itself. Child slots that have matching variant keys SHALL receive inherited styles via CSS descendant selectors emitted by the extraction pipeline. Direct variant props on child slots SHALL override inherited styles via CSS source ordering within the same `@layer`. When `context: true` is specified, React context SHALL additionally propagate shared variant prop values to children, providing a fallback for portal-mounted children that CSS descendant selectors cannot reach.
+
+#### Scenario: Shared variant flows from Root to child
+
+- **WHEN** `<Family.Root density="compact">` renders with a shared `density` key
+- **THEN** Root SHALL apply its variant class (`.Root--density-compact`) and the CSS inheritance rule SHALL style `<Family.Child />` (which has a `density` variant) without any React context or prop passing
+
+#### Scenario: Direct prop overrides inherited
+
+- **WHEN** `<Family.Root density="compact">` renders and `<Family.Child density="loose" />` has a direct prop
+- **THEN** Child SHALL apply its own variant class (`.Child--density-loose`) and the CSS override rule SHALL win via source order — child uses `density="loose"` styles
+
+#### Scenario: No props leak to children
+
+- **WHEN** Root provides `density` via its variant class but a child slot does NOT have a `density` variant
+- **THEN** the child SHALL NOT be affected — no composed CSS rules are emitted for variants the child does not have
+
+#### Scenario: No React context in default shared variant path
+
+- **WHEN** a composed family renders with shared variants and `context` is `false` or omitted
+- **THEN** no `createContext`, `Provider`, or `useContext` SHALL be used for shared variant propagation — the mechanism is purely CSS
+
+#### Scenario: React context used when context option is true
+
+- **WHEN** a composed family is created with `context: true`
+- **THEN** `createContext`, `Provider`, and `useContext` SHALL be used alongside CSS cascade to propagate shared variant prop values to children
+
+#### Scenario: options.shared is read by extraction, not runtime
+
+- **WHEN** `compose()` is called with `{ shared: { density: true } }`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL NOT consume the `shared` config for CSS class generation — it is read by the Rust extraction pipeline at build time to emit composed variant CSS rules. When `context: true`, the runtime reads `shared` keys to determine which props to propagate via context.
+
+### Requirement: Family displayName derivation
+
+Composed family member displayNames SHALL be stable and predictable. The family name SHALL NOT be derived from displayName regex parsing.
+
+#### Scenario: displayName with explicit name option
+
+- **WHEN** `compose(slots, { shared: {}, name: 'Card' })` is called
+- **THEN** each slot SHALL have `displayName` of `"Card.Root"`, `"Card.Header"`, etc.
+
+#### Scenario: displayName without name option
+
+- **WHEN** `compose(slots, { shared: {} })` is called without a `name` option
+- **THEN** each slot SHALL have a stable displayName derived from the Root component's displayName (stripping `animus-` prefix and hash suffix) or fallback to `"Composed"`
+
+### Requirement: React key preservation through wrappers
+
+Composed components wrapped in `forwardRef` SHALL correctly propagate React keys for list rendering.
+
+#### Scenario: Keys maintained in list rendering
+
+- **WHEN** a list of `<Family.Root key={id}>` elements is rendered
+- **THEN** React reconciliation SHALL use the keys correctly — reordering the list SHALL not remount components
+
+### Requirement: SharedConfig type constraint
+
+`SharedConfig<Slots>` SHALL only allow keys that exist as variant props on the Root slot. Non-Root variant keys SHALL NOT be valid shared keys.
+
+#### Scenario: Valid shared key from Root
+
+- **WHEN** Root has variants `{ density: { compact: {}, loose: {} } }` and shared config is `{ density: true }`
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL accept the shared config
+
+#### Scenario: Invalid shared key not on Root
+
+- **WHEN** Root does NOT have a `theme` variant but shared config is `{ theme: true }`
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL produce a type error — `theme` is not a valid shared key
+
+### Requirement: compose() accepts optional `context` boolean
+
+`compose()` SHALL accept an optional `context: boolean` field in the options object. When `true`, compose() SHALL create a React context for shared variant prop propagation alongside CSS cascade. When `false` or omitted, compose() SHALL use CSS-only propagation with no React context.
+
+#### Scenario: context option accepted
+
+- **WHEN** `compose({ Root: R, Child: C }, { shared: { size: true }, context: true })` is called
+- **THEN** the call SHALL succeed and the resulting family SHALL use React context for shared variant propagation
+
+#### Scenario: context defaults to false
+
+- **WHEN** `compose({ Root: R, Child: C }, { shared: { size: true } })` is called without a `context` option
+- **THEN** the resulting family SHALL use CSS-only propagation with no React context — identical to current behavior
+
+#### Scenario: context option in TypeScript
+
+- **WHEN** the `context` option is used in TypeScript
+- **THEN** it SHALL be typed as `context?: boolean` with no impact on `SharedConfig`, `ComposedFamily`, or consumer-facing prop types
+
+### Requirement: Context-mode Root provides shared prop values via Provider
+
+When `context: true`, the Root slot wrapper SHALL create a `FamilyContext.Provider` wrapping `props.children` inside Root's rendered output. The Provider value SHALL contain only the shared variant prop values extracted from Root's props.
+
+#### Scenario: Root provides shared values
+
+- **WHEN** `<Family.Root size="lg">` renders in a `context: true` family with `shared: { size: true }`
+- **THEN** Root SHALL provide `{ size: "lg" }` via React context to all React children, including portal-mounted children
+
+#### Scenario: Provider wraps children inside Root
+
+- **WHEN** Root renders in context mode
+- **THEN** the Provider SHALL be placed INSIDE Root's rendered element wrapping `props.children`, not outside Root — ensuring portaled React children (which are React children even when DOM-escaped) receive the context
+
+### Requirement: Context-mode children merge context with direct props
+
+When `context: true`, non-Root slot wrappers SHALL call `useContext(FamilyContext)` and merge the context values under their direct props. Direct props SHALL override context-provided values.
+
+#### Scenario: Child receives shared value from context
+
+- **WHEN** `<Family.Child />` renders without a direct `size` prop in a `context: true` family where Root provides `size="lg"`
+- **THEN** Child SHALL receive `size="lg"` from context and resolve it through its own variant runtime
+
+#### Scenario: Direct prop overrides context value
+
+- **WHEN** `<Family.Child size="sm" />` renders with a direct `size` prop in a `context: true` family where Root provides `size="lg"`
+- **THEN** Child SHALL use `size="sm"` (direct prop wins) — context value is ignored for that prop
+
+### Requirement: `"use client"` directive injection
+
+When the extraction pipeline detects `context: true` in a compose call, the transformed output SHALL include a `"use client"` directive at the top of the file if one is not already present.
+
+#### Scenario: Directive injected when absent
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains `compose({ Root: R, Child: C }, { shared: { size: true }, context: true })` and does NOT start with `'use client'` or `"use client"`
+- **THEN** the transformed output SHALL start with `'use client';` followed by a newline, before any import statements
+
+#### Scenario: Existing directive preserved
+
+- **WHEN** a source file already starts with `'use client'` and contains a `context: true` compose call
+- **THEN** the existing directive SHALL be preserved as-is — no duplicate directive SHALL be added
+
+#### Scenario: No directive without context
+
+- **WHEN** a source file contains only `context: false` or default compose calls (no `context: true`)
+- **THEN** the pipeline SHALL NOT inject a `"use client"` directive (existing directives are still preserved if present)

+
+- **WHEN** a consumer defines `createTheme({ breakpoints: { mobile: 480, tablet: 768, desktop: 1024 } })`
+- **THEN** responsive props SHALL accept `{ _: value, mobile: value, tablet: value, desktop: value }` and no other breakpoint keys
+
+#### Scenario: Fewer breakpoints than default
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer defines `createTheme({ breakpoints: { sm: 640, lg: 1024 } })`
+- **THEN** responsive props SHALL accept only `{ _: value, sm: value, lg: value }` — keys like `xs`, `md`, `xl` SHALL be type errors
+
+#### Scenario: More breakpoints than default
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer defines `createTheme({ breakpoints: { xs: 480, sm: 768, md: 1024, lg: 1200, xl: 1440, xxl: 1920 } })`
+- **THEN** responsive props SHALL accept all six keys plus `_`
+
+#### Scenario: The `_` key is always valid
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer uses `{ _: value }` in a responsive prop
+- **THEN** the `_` key SHALL be accepted regardless of what breakpoint keys are defined — it represents the default (no media query) value
+
+### Requirement: Breakpoint types flow through Theme augmentation
+
+The augmented `Theme` interface SHALL carry the user's breakpoint definition. `MediaQueryMap<T>` SHALL be a mapped type derived from `Theme['breakpoints']`, not a hardcoded interface. When consumers augment `Theme` via `declare module`, responsive prop types SHALL automatically reflect their breakpoint keys.
+
+#### Scenario: Augmented Theme drives responsive types
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer augments Theme with `interface Theme extends MyTheme {}` where MyTheme has `breakpoints: { sm: number; lg: number }`
+- **THEN** `ResponsiveProp<string>` SHALL resolve to `string | { _?: string; sm?: string; lg?: string }`
+
+#### Scenario: Unaugmented Theme falls back to open keys
+
+- **WHEN** Theme is NOT augmented (default `BaseTheme`)
+- **THEN** `ResponsiveProp<T>` SHALL accept `T | { _?: T; [key: string]: T | undefined }` — any string key is valid (no type narrowing without augmentation)
+
+### Requirement: Breakpoint ordering is declaration order
+
+Media queries SHALL be emitted in the order the breakpoint keys appear in the `breakpoints` object. Since JavaScript objects preserve insertion order for string keys, the consumer controls the cascade order by controlling the object literal order.
+
+#### Scenario: Mobile-first ordering
+
+- **WHEN** breakpoints are `{ sm: 640, md: 1024, lg: 1440 }`
+- **THEN** generated media queries SHALL appear in order: `@media (min-width: 640px)`, `@media (min-width: 1024px)`, `@media (min-width: 1440px)`
+
+#### Scenario: Order matters for cascade
+
+- **WHEN** a responsive prop specifies `{ sm: 'red', lg: 'blue' }` and `lg` comes after `sm` in the breakpoints definition
+- **THEN** the `@media (min-width: lg)` rule SHALL appear after the `@media (min-width: sm)` rule in the CSS output, ensuring the larger breakpoint wins at wider viewports
+
+### Requirement: createTheme validates breakpoint values
+
+`createTheme()` SHALL validate that all breakpoint values are positive numbers. Non-numeric or negative values SHALL throw at theme build time.
+
+#### Scenario: Non-numeric value rejected
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer passes `createTheme({ breakpoints: { sm: '768px' } })`
+- **THEN** `createTheme` SHALL throw an error indicating breakpoint values must be numbers (pixel values)
+
+#### Scenario: Zero is valid
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer passes `createTheme({ breakpoints: { base: 0, sm: 640 } })`
+- **THEN** the breakpoints SHALL be accepted — a breakpoint at 0px is valid (equivalent to default/mobile-first)

+## Content Migration Specification
+
+### Overview
+
+Migrate showcase documentation pages from inline JSX authoring to markdown content files. Each documentation topic becomes a `.md` file. Page components become thin TSX wrappers that import and render the markdown, optionally composing interactive demo components.
+
+### File Structure
+
+```
+src/
+  content/                          ← markdown content files
+    concepts/
+      builder-chain.md
+      cascade-contract.md
+      design-tokens.md
+      responsive-props.md
+      variants-states.md
+      slot-composition.md
+    api/
+      create-theme.md
+      create-system.md
+      builder-chain.md
+      create-transform.md
+      prop-groups.md
+      vite-plugin.md
+    why.md
+    getting-started.md
+  demos/                            ← interactive React components
+    SlotCompositionDemo.tsx
+  pages/                            ← thin TSX wrappers (post-nav-restructure)
+    concepts/
+      BuilderChain.tsx
+      CascadeContract.tsx
+      DesignTokens.tsx
+      ResponsiveProps.tsx
+      VariantsStates.tsx
+      SlotComposition.tsx
+    api/
+      CreateTheme.tsx
+      CreateSystem.tsx
+      ...
+```
+
+### Migration Rules
+
+1. **Prose** → plain markdown paragraphs. Remove `<Prose>` wrapper, `fontSize`, `lineHeight` props (handled by component map).
+
+2. **Headings** → markdown headings (`##`, `###`). Remove `<Heading level={N}>` wrapper.
+
+3. **InlineCode** → backtick inline code. Remove `<InlineCode>` wrapper.
+
+4. **CodeExample with input/output** → consecutive tsx + css fenced code blocks. Remove the `const example = { input: '...', output: '...' }` pattern and `<CodeExample code={example} />`.
+
+5. **SyntaxBlock** → single fenced code block with language. Remove `<SyntaxBlock code={...} language={...} />`.
+
+6. **Stack/Row layout** → removed entirely. Spacing is handled by the MarkdownContent wrapper's CSS. Layout within markdown is linear by nature.
+
+7. **Label** → markdown emphasis or bold. `<Label>method → layer</Label>` becomes `**method → layer**` or similar.
+
+8. **Interactive sections** (useState, onClick, live demos) → extracted to separate TSX components in `demos/`. Composed alongside markdown in the page wrapper.
+
+### What Stays as TSX
+
+- **Home page** (`Home.tsx`): Hero section, animated elements, CTA layout. Not documentation prose — this is a marketing/landing page.
+- **Examples page** (`Examples.tsx`): Primarily interactive demonstrations.
+- **Interactive demos**: Any section requiring React state, event handlers, or live component rendering. Extracted to `demos/` directory.
+
+### Migration Sequencing
+
+This migration is coupled with `docs-navigation-restructure`. The recommended order:
+
+1. **Implement MarkdownContent component** (this proposal, renderer spec)
+2. **Migrate one page as proof-of-concept** — Getting Started is a good candidate (sequential prose, no interactive demos, currently well-structured)
+3. **Implement docs-navigation-restructure** — split pages into routes
+4. **Migrate remaining pages** — each topic page is authored as .md during the split
+
+Steps 3 and 4 can happen simultaneously — as each page is split into its own route, it's authored as markdown rather than copying the existing JSX.
+
+### Content Extraction from Existing Pages
+
+When migrating a page, the process is:
+
+1. Read the existing TSX page
+2. For each section, convert JSX to markdown:
+   - Strip component wrappers (`Prose`, `Heading`, `Stack`, etc.)
+   - Convert inline JSX to markdown syntax
+   - Move code example strings into fenced code blocks
+3. Identify interactive sections → extract to `demos/` component
+4. Create thin page wrapper → import md + optional demo
+5. Verify rendering matches original

+### Requirement: ThemeBuilder addContextualVars method
+
+The ThemeBuilder SHALL provide an `addContextualVars` method that declares phantom scale members resolving to CSS custom properties. The method SHALL accept a config object with `scale` (an existing scale name in `keyof T`) and `vars` (an object mapping contextual var names to CSS custom property names). Object keys SHALL narrow to literal types without requiring `as const` at the callsite.
+
+#### Scenario: Basic contextual var declaration
+
+- **WHEN** the theme chain calls `.addContextualVars({ scale: 'colors', vars: { 'current-bg': '--current-bg' } })`
+- **THEN** `keyof TokenScales<Theme>['colors']` SHALL include `'current-bg'`
+- **AND** existing color keys SHALL remain unchanged
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple contextual vars on one scale
+
+- **WHEN** the theme chain calls `.addContextualVars({ scale: 'colors', vars: { 'current-bg': '--current-bg', 'current-border-color': '--current-border-color' } })`
+- **THEN** `keyof TokenScales<Theme>['colors']` SHALL include both `'current-bg'` and `'current-border-color'`
+
+#### Scenario: Type narrowing without as const
+
+- **WHEN** a user writes `.addContextualVars({ scale: 'colors', vars: { 'current-bg': '--current-bg' } })` without `as const`
+- **THEN** the var names SHALL be inferred as literal string types, not widened to `string`
+
+#### Scenario: Scale must exist
+
+- **WHEN** `.addContextualVars({ scale: 'bogus', vars: { ... } })` is called with a scale not in `keyof T`
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL produce a type error on `scale`
+
+#### Scenario: Chainable with checkpoint
+
+- **WHEN** `.addContextualVars()` is called in the builder chain
+- **THEN** it SHALL return a new `ThemeBuilder` instance via `#checkpoint` with the widened type
+- **AND** subsequent chain methods SHALL see the updated type
+
+### Requirement: Phantom type merging
+
+Contextual var names SHALL exist as keys in the scale's type but SHALL NOT exist as values in the runtime theme object. They are type-only (phantom) members.
+
+#### Scenario: Type includes phantom keys
+
+- **WHEN** `addContextualVars` adds `'current-bg'` to the colors scale
+- **THEN** `'current-bg'` SHALL be a valid value for any prop with `scale: 'colors'` (e.g., `bg`, `color`, `borderColor`, `fill`)
+
+#### Scenario: Runtime theme unchanged
+
+- **WHEN** `addContextualVars` is called
+- **THEN** the runtime theme object passed to `#checkpoint` SHALL be identical to the theme before the call — no new keys added to the runtime object
+
+#### Scenario: Phantom keys do not appear in manifest
+
+- **WHEN** the theme is serialized via `.build()` and the manifest is generated
+- **THEN** contextual var names SHALL NOT appear in the `_variables` or token manifest as emitted tokens
+
+### Requirement: Contextual var serialization
+
+The theme serialization SHALL include a `contextualVars` registry mapping scale names to their contextual var entries (name → CSS custom property).
+
+#### Scenario: Serialized output includes registry
+
+- **WHEN** the theme has `.addContextualVars({ scale: 'colors', vars: { 'current-bg': '--current-bg' } })`
+- **THEN** `theme._contextualVars` SHALL contain `{ colors: { 'current-bg': '--current-bg' } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Registry available to Rust extractor
+
+- **WHEN** the vite plugin evaluates the theme and passes data to the Rust extractor
+- **THEN** the contextual var registry SHALL be included in the serialized theme data alongside `scalesJson` and `variableMapJson`
+
+### Requirement: Rust contextual var resolution
+
+The Rust extractor SHALL resolve contextual var names to their CSS custom property values when encountered as style values.
+
+#### Scenario: Contextual var as direct value
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `borderColor: 'current-bg'` and `current-bg` is in the contextual vars registry for `colors`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `border-color: var(--current-bg)`
+
+#### Scenario: Contextual var in token ref syntax
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `boxShadow: '0 0 8px {colors.current-bg}'`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `box-shadow: 0 0 8px var(--current-bg)`
+
+#### Scenario: Token manifest takes precedence
+
+- **WHEN** a token key and contextual var have the same name (unlikely but possible)
+- **THEN** the token manifest resolution SHALL take precedence over contextual var resolution
+
+#### Scenario: Unknown contextual var falls through
+
+- **WHEN** a value does not match any contextual var name or token key
+- **THEN** it SHALL be passed through as a raw CSS value (existing behavior)
+
+#### Scenario: Contextual var with opacity syntax
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `borderColor: '{colors.current-bg/50}'`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `border-color: color-mix(in srgb, var(--current-bg) 50%, transparent)`
+
+#### Scenario: Rust resolver function signatures
+
+- **WHEN** the contextual vars registry is loaded from theme data
+- **THEN** it SHALL be accessible to `resolve_value`, `resolve_flat_styles`, and `resolve_single_alias` via a shared resolver context — not individual function parameters
+
+### Requirement: Ordering constraint
+
+`addContextualVars` SHALL only accept scales that already exist in the theme type. It MUST be called after the target scale is added (e.g., after `addColors` for the colors scale).
+
+#### Scenario: Called after addColors
+
+- **WHEN** `addContextualVars({ scale: 'colors', ... })` is called after `addColors()`
+- **THEN** it SHALL compile and add phantom keys to the colors scale type
+
+#### Scenario: Called before addColors
+
+- **WHEN** `addContextualVars({ scale: 'colors', ... })` is called before `addColors()`
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL produce a type error because `'colors'` is not yet in `keyof T`
+
+#### Scenario: Runtime ordering guard
+
+- **WHEN** `addContextualVars` is called with a scale name that does not exist at runtime
+- **THEN** it SHALL throw an error: `"addContextualVars: scale 'X' not found — call addColors or addScale first"`

+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: CSS post-processing function
+
+The Vite plugin SHALL expose an internal `postProcessCss()` function that takes a CSS string, processing mode, and browser targets, and returns a processed CSS string. The function SHALL use Lightning CSS (`lightningcss` npm package) for minification and autoprefixing.
+
+#### Scenario: Prod mode minifies and autoprefixes
+
+- **WHEN** `postProcessCss(css, { minify: true, targets })` is called
+- **THEN** the returned CSS SHALL be minified (whitespace removed, rules merged where safe) and vendor-prefixed for the specified targets
+
+#### Scenario: Dev mode autoprefixes without minifying
+
+- **WHEN** `postProcessCss(css, { minify: false, targets })` is called
+- **THEN** the returned CSS SHALL have vendor prefixes added but formatting preserved (no whitespace removal, no rule merging)
+
+#### Scenario: No targets specified
+
+- **WHEN** `postProcessCss()` is called with no explicit targets
+- **THEN** the function SHALL use the resolved default targets (browserslist query or built-in defaults)
+
+### Requirement: Post-processing operates on body content only
+
+The vite-plugin `postProcessCss` function SHALL receive only the body segment (global CSS + component CSS) from the split assembly, never the `@layer` cascade declaration or variable CSS. The final virtual module output is reconstructed by concatenating the unprocessed variables with the processed body. The `@layer` declaration is delivered separately via HTML `<style>` tag (see layer-declaration-delivery capability).
+
+#### Scenario: Layer declaration delivered via HTML style tag (Vite)
+
+- **WHEN** the Vite plugin processes an HTML page (dev page load or prod build)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL inject a `<style>` tag into the HTML `<head>` containing the `@layer` declaration
+- **AND** the `<style>` tag SHALL be the first child of `<head>` (via `injectTo: 'head-prepend'`)
+- **AND** the `transformIndexHtml` hook SHALL use `order: 'pre'` to run before Vite's internal transforms
+- **AND** the `@layer` declaration SHALL NOT appear in the virtual module CSS output
+
+#### Scenario: Prod mode virtual module contains variables and processed body only
+
+- **WHEN** the virtual module `virtual:animus/styles.css` is loaded in prod mode
+- **THEN** the output SHALL begin with variable CSS (`:root` blocks)
+- **AND** only the `@layer` block content (global + component CSS) SHALL have been processed by Lightning CSS
+- **AND** the `@layer` ordering declaration SHALL NOT be present in the virtual module output (it is in the HTML `<style>` tag)
+
+#### Scenario: Dev mode virtual module contains variables and processed body only
+
+- **WHEN** the virtual module is loaded in dev mode (split delivery: static CSS via virtual module, component CSS via adopted stylesheet)
+- **THEN** the virtual module output SHALL begin with variable CSS followed by processed global CSS
+- **AND** the `@layer` ordering declaration SHALL NOT be present in the virtual module output
+- **AND** Lightning CSS SHALL NOT reorder, strip, or consolidate any part of the variables
+
+#### Scenario: Dev adopted stylesheet strips embedded declaration
+
+- **WHEN** the component CSS is served via the adopted stylesheet bridge (`RESOLVED_COMPONENTS_ID`)
+- **THEN** any `@layer ...;` declaration embedded in `resolvedComponentCss` SHALL be stripped before Lightning CSS processing
+- **AND** the adopted stylesheet SHALL NOT contain a duplicate `@layer` declaration
+
+### Requirement: @layer block preservation
+
+Lightning CSS post-processing SHALL preserve `@layer` block structure and ordering within the body segment. The cascade layers SHALL appear in the output in the same order as the input.
+
+#### Scenario: Layer blocks not merged across names
+
+- **WHEN** input CSS contains separate `@layer base { ... }` and `@layer system { ... }` blocks
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL preserve them as separate blocks (Lightning CSS only merges adjacent blocks with identical names)
+
+#### Scenario: Layer block content minified
+
+- **WHEN** prod mode processes `@layer base { .comp { display: flex; flex-direction: column; } }`
+- **THEN** the layer block wrapper is preserved while internal rules are minified
+
+### Requirement: CSS custom property preservation
+
+Lightning CSS post-processing SHALL NOT resolve, inline, or remove CSS custom properties (`var()` references). All `var(--animus-*)` references and `:root` variable declarations SHALL pass through untouched.
+
+#### Scenario: var() references preserved
+
+- **WHEN** input CSS contains `color: var(--colors-primary);`
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL contain the same `var()` reference
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic slot variables preserved
+
+- **WHEN** input CSS contains `padding: var(--animus-p);` in a slot class
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL contain the same `var()` reference
+
+#### Scenario: Root variable declarations preserved
+
+- **WHEN** input CSS contains `:root { --colors-primary: #ff2800; }`
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL contain the same declaration
+
+### Requirement: Vendor prefix insertion
+
+Lightning CSS SHALL add vendor prefixes based on the configured browser targets. Only prefixes required by the target browsers SHALL be inserted.
+
+#### Scenario: backdrop-filter prefixed for Safari
+
+- **WHEN** targets include Safari 15 and input CSS contains `backdrop-filter: blur(8px);`
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL include `-webkit-backdrop-filter: blur(8px);`
+
+#### Scenario: No unnecessary prefixes
+
+- **WHEN** targets only include Chrome 100+ and input CSS contains `display: flex;`
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL NOT add `-webkit-` prefix (Chrome 100 supports unprefixed flex)
+
+#### Scenario: user-select prefixed where needed
+
+- **WHEN** targets include browsers requiring prefix and input CSS contains `user-select: none;`
+- **THEN** the output CSS SHALL include the appropriate vendor-prefixed version
+
+### Requirement: Minification behavior
+
+In prod mode, Lightning CSS minification SHALL reduce CSS size by removing whitespace, merging adjacent rules with identical selectors or declarations, folding longhands into shorthands where safe, and simplifying color values.
+
+#### Scenario: Whitespace removal
+
+- **WHEN** prod mode processes multi-line indented CSS
+- **THEN** unnecessary whitespace and newlines are removed
+
+#### Scenario: Adjacent rule merging
+
+- **WHEN** two adjacent rules have identical selectors
+- **THEN** their declarations are merged into a single rule
+
+#### Scenario: Color simplification
+
+- **WHEN** input CSS contains `color: rgb(255, 40, 0);`
+- **THEN** the output CSS MAY contain a shorter equivalent (e.g., `color: #ff2800`)
+
+#### Scenario: Longhand folding
+
+- **WHEN** input CSS contains `margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0; margin-left: 0;` in the same rule
+- **THEN** the output CSS MAY contain `margin: 0` instead
+
+### Requirement: Graceful degradation on error
+
+If Lightning CSS processing fails for any reason, the plugin SHALL fall back to serving the unprocessed CSS and emit a console warning. A post-processing failure SHALL NOT block the dev server or production build.
+
+#### Scenario: Malformed CSS input
+
+- **WHEN** the extraction pipeline produces CSS that Lightning CSS cannot parse
+- **THEN** the unprocessed CSS is served and a warning is logged
+
+#### Scenario: Lightning CSS import failure
+
+- **WHEN** the `lightningcss` package is missing or fails to load
+- **THEN** the unprocessed CSS is served and a warning is logged at plugin initialization
+
+#### Scenario: Warning includes context
+
+- **WHEN** post-processing fails
+- **THEN** the warning message SHALL include the error details and indicate which CSS path (styles.css or components) was affected
+
+### Requirement: Unit fallback converts bare numerics to px
+
+The `applyUnitFallback` function SHALL append `px` to bare numeric values on CSS length properties. It MUST preserve unitless properties (flex, z-index, opacity, line-height, font-weight, order, etc.) and MUST NOT mangle values inside function calls (rgb(), calc(), cubic-bezier(), var(), etc.).
+
+#### Scenario: Bare numeric on length property gets px
+
+- **WHEN** `applyUnitFallback` receives CSS containing `padding: 8;`
+- **THEN** it returns CSS containing `padding: 8px;`
+
+#### Scenario: Unitless property preserved
+
+- **WHEN** `applyUnitFallback` receives CSS containing `z-index: 10;` or `opacity: 0.5;`
+- **THEN** the values are not modified
+
+#### Scenario: Function call values preserved
+
+- **WHEN** `applyUnitFallback` receives CSS containing `color: rgb(255, 0, 0);` or `width: calc(100% - 16);`
+- **THEN** the numeric arguments inside function calls are not modified
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-value shorthand
+
+- **WHEN** `applyUnitFallback` receives CSS containing `margin: 8 16 8 16;`
+- **THEN** it returns CSS containing `margin: 8px 16px 8px 16px;`
+
+### Requirement: Prefix application namespaces CSS custom properties
+
+The `applyPrefix` function SHALL prepend a namespace prefix to all CSS custom properties in the variable map and variable CSS. `--color-primary` with prefix `ds` MUST become `--ds-color-primary`.
+
+#### Scenario: Variable map entries prefixed
+
+- **WHEN** `applyPrefix("ds", variableMapJson, variableCss)` is called
+- **THEN** all `--{name}` entries in the returned `variableMapJson` have `--ds-` prefix
+
+#### Scenario: Variable CSS declarations prefixed
+
+- **WHEN** `applyPrefix("ds", variableMapJson, variableCss)` is called
+- **THEN** all custom property declarations and references in the returned `variableCss` have the `ds` prefix
+
+### Requirement: Global styles resolution
+
+The `resolveGlobalStyles` function SHALL resolve global style blocks by applying scale lookups, token alias resolution, and named transforms to produce final CSS strings. Token aliases using `{scale.path}` syntax MUST resolve to `var(--name)` when a variable map entry exists, or to the literal token value when it does not.
+
+#### Scenario: Token alias resolves to CSS variable
+
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains `color: '{colors.primary}'` and the variable map has an entry for `colors.primary`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS contains `color: var(--color-primary)`
+
+#### Scenario: Token alias with alpha resolves to color-mix
+
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains `background: '{colors.primary/50}'`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS contains `background: color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-primary) 50%, transparent)`
+
+#### Scenario: Scale lookup resolves to token value
+
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains a value matching a scale key and the scale has a corresponding entry
+- **THEN** the value is resolved using the flat token map
+
+#### Scenario: Named transform applied in global styles
+
+- **WHEN** a global style block uses a property with an associated named transform
+- **THEN** the transform function is applied to the value before CSS emission

+# css-property-data Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+Provide a shared, dependency-free package (`@animus-ui/properties`) that exports CSS property data constants (unitless property set, shorthand property list) and re-exports csstype definitions, serving as the single source of truth for property metadata across the monorepo.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Unitless property set
+
+`@animus-ui/properties` SHALL export a `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES` constant of type `Set<string>` containing all CSS properties that accept bare numeric values without a unit suffix.
+
+#### Scenario: Contains standard unitless properties
+
+- **WHEN** the consumer checks `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES.has('opacity')`
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be `true`
+
+#### Scenario: Contains SVG unitless properties
+
+- **WHEN** the consumer checks `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES.has('fill-opacity')`
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be `true`
+
+#### Scenario: Contains legacy flexbox unitless properties
+
+- **WHEN** the consumer checks `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES.has('box-flex')`, `box-flex-group`, `box-ordinal-group`, or `flex-order`
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be `true` for all four
+
+#### Scenario: Contains modern unitless properties
+
+- **WHEN** the consumer checks `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES.has('aspect-ratio')` or `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES.has('scale')`
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be `true` for both
+
+#### Scenario: Length properties excluded
+
+- **WHEN** the consumer checks `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES.has('padding')`
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be `false`
+
+#### Scenario: Property names in kebab-case
+
+- **WHEN** the consumer iterates `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES`
+- **THEN** all entries SHALL use kebab-case naming (e.g., `animation-iteration-count`, not `animationIterationCount`)
+
+### Requirement: Shorthand property list
+
+`@animus-ui/properties` SHALL export a `SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES` constant of type `readonly string[]` containing CSS shorthand property names used for declaration ordering.
+
+#### Scenario: Contains standard shorthands
+
+- **WHEN** the consumer checks `SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES.includes('border')`
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be `true`
+
+#### Scenario: Contains layout shorthands
+
+- **WHEN** the consumer checks for `flex`, `grid`, `gap`, `margin`, `padding`
+- **THEN** all SHALL be present in `SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES`
+
+#### Scenario: Property names in camelCase
+
+- **WHEN** the consumer reads `SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES`
+- **THEN** entries SHALL use camelCase naming (e.g., `borderTop`, not `border-top`), matching prop config convention
+
+#### Scenario: No duplicate entries
+
+- **WHEN** the consumer checks `SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES` for duplicates
+- **THEN** every entry SHALL appear exactly once
+
+#### Scenario: Scoped to registered shorthands
+
+- **WHEN** the consumer reads `SHORTHAND_PROPERTIES`
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain shorthands registered in prop configs (border, margin, padding, flex, grid, etc.), not all possible CSS shorthands
+
+### Requirement: csstype re-export
+
+`@animus-ui/properties` SHALL re-export CSS property type definitions from `csstype`, providing a single augmentation point for property types across the monorepo.
+
+#### Scenario: Full type surface importable
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer imports `type { Properties, Property, Pseudos } from '@animus-ui/properties'`
+- **THEN** all SHALL resolve to their `csstype` equivalents via wildcard re-export
+
+#### Scenario: Single dependency point
+
+- **WHEN** a package needs CSS property type definitions
+- **THEN** it SHALL depend on `@animus-ui/properties` instead of depending on `csstype` directly
+
+### Requirement: Zero internal dependencies
+
+`@animus-ui/properties` SHALL have zero dependencies on other `@animus-ui/*` packages. Its only external dependency SHALL be `csstype`.
+
+#### Scenario: Package dependency graph
+
+- **WHEN** the package.json dependencies are inspected
+- **THEN** no `@animus-ui/*` packages SHALL appear in `dependencies` or `peerDependencies`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Eliminate unused variant option CSS
+
+The reconciler SHALL remove CSS rules for variant options that are not in the usage ledger's used set for that component and variant prop. The remaining CSS SHALL contain only rules for variant options that are actually used at callsites.
+
+#### Scenario: One of three options unused
+
+- **WHEN** component `Button` has variant options `fill`, `stroke`, `outline` and the ledger shows only `stroke` and `outline` used
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL NOT contain the `.animus-Button-xxx--variant-fill` rule but SHALL contain rules for `stroke` and `outline`
+
+#### Scenario: All options used
+
+- **WHEN** all variant options for a component appear in the usage ledger
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL contain all variant option rules (no elimination)
+
+#### Scenario: Default variant kept when implicit
+
+- **WHEN** `Button` has `defaultVariant: "fill"` and the ledger records `"fill"` as used (via implicit default activation)
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL keep the `.animus-Button-xxx--variant-fill` rule
+
+### Requirement: Eliminate unused state CSS
+
+The reconciler SHALL remove CSS rules for state names that are not in the usage ledger's used set for that component.
+
+#### Scenario: State never activated
+
+- **WHEN** component `FlexBox` has states `fit`, `center`, `wrap` and the ledger shows only `center` used
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL NOT contain rules for `--fit` or `--wrap` but SHALL contain the `--center` rule
+
+#### Scenario: All states used
+
+- **WHEN** all state names for a component appear in the usage ledger
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL contain all state rules
+
+### Requirement: Eliminate entire unused component CSS
+
+The reconciler SHALL remove ALL CSS rules (base, variants, states) for components that are neither rendered at any callsite NOR referenced as a parent in the provenance graph.
+
+#### Scenario: Component never rendered and not a parent
+
+- **WHEN** `GridBox` is defined but never rendered (`<GridBox>` never appears) and no other component extends from it
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL contain NO rules for GridBox (no base, no variants, no states)
+
+#### Scenario: Component not rendered but is a parent
+
+- **WHEN** `Anchor` is never rendered as `<Anchor>` but `NavLink` extends from it
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL KEEP Anchor's rules — NavLink's merged CSS depends on them for cascade correctness
+
+#### Scenario: Component rendered
+
+- **WHEN** `Button` is rendered at least once via `<Button />`
+- **THEN** the reconciled CSS SHALL keep Button's base styles (and used variants/states)
+
+### Requirement: Reconciliation preserves CSS structure
+
+The reconciled CSS SHALL maintain the same @layer structure, topological ordering, and formatting as the pre-reconciliation CSS. Only individual rules within layers are removed — the layer structure itself is unchanged.
+
+#### Scenario: Layer still emitted with remaining rules
+
+- **WHEN** `@layer variants` had 10 rules and reconciliation removes 6
+- **THEN** `@layer variants` SHALL still be emitted with the remaining 4 rules
+
+#### Scenario: Empty layer omitted
+
+- **WHEN** reconciliation removes ALL rules from `@layer states` for all components
+- **THEN** the `@layer states { }` block SHALL be omitted from the CSS output (no empty layer blocks)
+
+### Requirement: Dev/build reconciler parity for component elimination
+
+Component-elimination decisions SHALL be consistent between `dev_mode=true` and `dev_mode=false` invocations of `analyzeProject` — OR any intentional divergence SHALL surface in dev mode as an authoring-time diagnostic matching what build mode would eliminate. The reconciler SHALL NOT silently keep components in dev that it eliminates in build. Silent divergence hides JSX-scanner gaps from authoring feedback, causing scanner-related regressions to surface only at deploy time instead of at authoring time.
+
+Acceptable implementation strategies (captured in design.md; the spec constrains the observable contract, not the strategy):
+
+1. Eliminate in both modes (strictest; may break dev HMR flows where a component is added but not yet rendered).
+2. Retain in both modes (weakest dead-code elimination; simplest to implement).
+3. Retain in dev + emit dev-mode diagnostic for anything that would be eliminated in build (compromise; preserves HMR while closing the authoring-feedback gap). RECOMMENDED in design.md.
+
+#### Scenario: Dev and build agree when component is rendered
+
+- **WHEN** a component is rendered via any recognized pattern (JSX element, JSX member expression, `createElement(...)` bare ident or member expr) AND appears in the usage ledger
+- **THEN** both `dev_mode=true` and `dev_mode=false` SHALL keep the component's CSS — parity holds, no divergence
+
+#### Scenario: Dev surfaces prospective build-mode elimination
+
+- **WHEN** `dev_mode=true`, a ds-built component is defined in the project but not recognized as rendered by the JSX scanner, such that `dev_mode=false` would eliminate it
+- **THEN** the manifest's `report.eliminated_details` SHALL include an entry for the component with `kind: "prospective_component"` and a reason explaining it would be eliminated in production, enabling `extraction-diagnostics` to surface a warning at authoring time
+- **AND** `report.components_eliminated` SHALL remain `0` in dev mode — prospective entries SHALL NOT inflate actual-elimination counters, preserving the invariant that actual-elimination counts match the number of `kind: "component"` entries only
+
+#### Scenario: Dev does not silently keep a component that build eliminates
+
+- **WHEN** a component is kept in `dev_mode=true` output that would be absent from `dev_mode=false` output
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL carry a dev-mode diagnostic record making the divergence observable — authoring feedback SHALL NOT depend on running a production build to reveal scanner blind spots

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Custom instance extraction via explicit config
+
+Custom design system instances SHALL be configured via the `system` plugin option, replacing `configPath`. The system instance's `.serialize()` provides all extraction config including custom groups and transforms.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom instance with custom groups extracts correctly
+
+- **WHEN** a system instance defines custom groups (`surface`, `arrange`, etc.) and the plugin is configured with `system: './src/ds.ts'`
+- **THEN** the extraction pipeline SHALL receive the custom group registry and extract components using those groups
+
+#### Scenario: Transforms resolve for custom instance
+
+- **WHEN** a custom system instance includes custom transforms (e.g., `elevation`, `fluid`) in its prop definitions
+- **THEN** `.serialize().transforms` SHALL include those transforms and the plugin SHALL resolve their placeholders
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Theme augmentation for custom instance type safety
+
+**Reason:** With T as a first-class generic on the builder chain, scale resolution flows from the system's `.withTokens()` phase. No `declare module` augmentation is needed.
+**Migration:** Remove `declare module '@animus-ui/core' { interface Theme extends ... }` from consumer code. Theme types flow automatically from `.withTokens()`.
+
+### Requirement: Custom getExtractConfig export
+
+**Reason:** Replaced by `.serialize()` on the SystemInstance. The system knows how to serialize itself — no standalone utility needed.
+**Migration:** Replace `export const getExtractConfig = () => serializeExtractConfig(ds)` with `ds.serialize()` (called by the plugin automatically).

+### Requirement: Dev-mode incremental JSX scanning and no reconciliation
+
+When `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: true`, it SHALL perform JSX scanning ONLY on changed files (files whose cache entry was invalidated by a hash mismatch). Cached JSX usage results from unchanged files SHALL be reused. The reconciliation phase (Phase 5e) SHALL be skipped entirely — no variants, states, components, or system prop utilities are pruned.
+
+New system prop values, variant usages, and state activations discovered in changed files SHALL be merged into the accumulated usage ledger via union (additive only). Values previously in the ledger from prior scans SHALL NOT be removed even if the changed file no longer references them.
+
+#### Scenario: New system prop detected in changed file
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: true` and a changed file adds `<Box p={8}>` for the first time
+- **THEN** the utility class for `p={8}` is generated and added to the CSS output
+
+#### Scenario: Unchanged files not re-scanned
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: true` and 31 of 32 files are unchanged
+- **THEN** JSX scanning runs only on the 1 changed file; cached scan results are reused for the other 31
+
+#### Scenario: Dev-mode retains all variants
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: true` and a component has 5 variant options but only 2 are used in JSX

+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: true` and a component is extracted but never rendered in JSX
+- **THEN** the component's CSS is retained in the output (no elimination)
+
+#### Scenario: Prod-mode unchanged
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: false` or `dev_mode` is not provided
+- **THEN** full JSX scanning (all files) and reconciliation proceed as before (unchanged behavior)
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: Monotonic CSS growth in dev
+
+During a dev session, CSS output SHALL only grow. Values encountered for variants, states, and system prop utilities SHALL accumulate across HMR cycles. A value once included in CSS SHALL NOT be removed until a geological reset or server restart.
+
+#### Scenario: New variant value persists
+
+- **WHEN** a developer adds a new variant value to a component and triggers HMR
+- **THEN** the new variant's CSS is added to the output, and previously-generated CSS for that component is preserved
+
+#### Scenario: Removed variant value persists in dev
+
+- **WHEN** a developer removes a variant option from source code and triggers HMR
+- **THEN** the removed variant's CSS remains in dev output until a geological reset or server restart
+
+#### Scenario: Geological reset restores accurate CSS
+
+- **WHEN** a geological reset occurs (theme/config/system change)
+- **THEN** the cache is cleared and full analysis produces CSS reflecting only the current source state (monotonic accumulation resets)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Static CSS served via regular virtual module
+
+In dev mode, `virtual:animus/styles.css` SHALL serve only the static portion: layer declaration, CSS variable declarations (`:root` + color mode selectors), and global styles (`@layer global { ... }`). Component CSS (`@layer base/variants/states/system/custom`) SHALL NOT be included.
+
+#### Scenario: Static module content in dev
+
+- **WHEN** `virtual:animus/styles.css` is loaded in dev mode
+- **THEN** it contains the `@layer` declaration statement
+- **AND** it contains `:root` variable declarations
+- **AND** it contains `@layer global { ... }` with reset and global styles
+- **AND** it does NOT contain `@layer base`, `@layer variants`, `@layer states`, `@layer system`, or `@layer custom` blocks
+
+#### Scenario: Static module content in prod
+
+- **WHEN** `virtual:animus/styles.css` is loaded in production build
+- **THEN** it contains ALL CSS (layer declaration + variables + globals + component CSS) — identical to current behavior
+
+### Requirement: Component CSS delivered via adopted stylesheet in dev
+
+In dev mode, component CSS SHALL be delivered via a Constructable StyleSheet managed by an auto-injected HMR bridge module. The bridge SHALL create a `CSSStyleSheet`, call `replaceSync()` with the component CSS string, and add the sheet to `document.adoptedStyleSheets`.
+
+#### Scenario: Component CSS applied via adopted stylesheet
+
+- **WHEN** the dev server starts and the page loads
+- **THEN** `document.adoptedStyleSheets` contains a stylesheet with the component CSS
+- **AND** all `@layer base/variants/states/system/custom` rules are present in the adopted sheet
+
+#### Scenario: HMR update preserves animations
+
+- **WHEN** a component file is edited and saved during dev
+- **AND** CSS animations are running on other components
+- **THEN** the bridge calls `replaceSync()` with the updated component CSS
+- **AND** running CSS animations on unchanged components are NOT reset
+
+### Requirement: HMR bridge auto-injected in dev mode
+
+The plugin SHALL inject the HMR bridge via the `transformIndexHtml` hook. The bridge MUST NOT be injected during production builds.
+
+#### Scenario: Bridge present in dev HTML
+
+- **WHEN** the dev server serves index.html
+- **THEN** a `<script type="module">` tag is present that imports the bridge module
+
+#### Scenario: Bridge absent in prod build
+
+- **WHEN** a production build is performed
+- **THEN** the built HTML does NOT contain the bridge module import
+- **AND** no bridge-related JS is in the production bundle
+
+### Requirement: Bridge is a singleton
+
+The HMR bridge SHALL maintain a single `CSSStyleSheet` instance across HMR updates. It MUST NOT create duplicate adopted stylesheets on module re-evaluation.
+
+#### Scenario: No duplicate stylesheets on HMR
+
+- **WHEN** the bridge module is re-evaluated due to HMR
+- **THEN** `document.adoptedStyleSheets` contains exactly one Animus-managed stylesheet
+- **AND** the existing sheet is updated via `replaceSync()`, not replaced with a new sheet
+
+### Requirement: Graceful fallback when Constructable StyleSheets unavailable
+
+If the browser does not support `CSSStyleSheet` constructor or `adoptedStyleSheets`, the bridge SHALL fall back to injecting component CSS via a `<style>` tag (current behavior) and log a warning.
+
+#### Scenario: Fallback to style tag
+
+- **WHEN** `typeof CSSStyleSheet === 'undefined'` or `!('adoptedStyleSheets' in document)`
+- **THEN** the bridge creates a `<style>` element with the component CSS
+- **AND** a warning is logged indicating the fallback
+
+### Requirement: Component CSS virtual module serves JS string
+
+A virtual JS module (`virtual:animus/components.js`) SHALL export the component CSS as a default string export. This module is consumed by the HMR bridge, not by user code.
+
+#### Scenario: Virtual JS module content
+
+- **WHEN** `virtual:animus/components.js` is loaded in dev mode
+- **THEN** it exports a string containing all component layer CSS (`@layer base { ... }` through `@layer custom { ... }`)
+
+#### Scenario: Virtual JS module not resolved in prod
+
+- **WHEN** a production build is performed
+- **THEN** `virtual:animus/components.js` is NOT resolved (component CSS is in the static CSS file)
+
+### Requirement: Transform emitter unchanged
+
+The Rust `transform_emitter` SHALL continue to emit `import 'virtual:animus/styles.css'` in transformed files. No changes to per-file transform output.
+
+#### Scenario: Transformed file imports unchanged
+
+- **WHEN** a file containing an extractable builder chain is transformed
+- **THEN** the transformed output includes `import 'virtual:animus/styles.css'`
+- **AND** it does NOT import the bridge or component JS module

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Package-level CLAUDE.md for extract
+
+The `packages/extract/` directory SHALL contain a `CLAUDE.md` file documenting the Rust NAPI crate's build process, cache behavior, debugging procedures, and known failure modes.
+
+#### Scenario: CLAUDE.md covers build commands
+
+- **WHEN** a developer reads `packages/extract/CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL document: `napi build --platform --release` for production, `napi build --platform` for debug, and the root-level `build:extract` alias
+
+#### Scenario: CLAUDE.md covers cache locations
+
+- **WHEN** a developer reads `packages/extract/CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL document: `target/` (Cargo build cache), `*.node` (NAPI binary artifact), and how to clear each
+
+#### Scenario: CLAUDE.md covers NAPI signature debugging
+
+- **WHEN** a developer reads `packages/extract/CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL document: that changing NAPI function signatures requires rebuilding the `.node` binary, and that stale binaries accept wrong arity silently
+
+#### Scenario: CLAUDE.md covers the NAPI function surface
+
+- **WHEN** a developer reads `packages/extract/CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL document the three exported NAPI functions (`extract`, `analyze_project`, `transform_file`) with their parameter signatures and return types
+
+### Requirement: Package-level CLAUDE.md for vite-plugin
+
+The `packages/vite-plugin/` directory SHALL contain a `CLAUDE.md` file documenting the plugin's architecture, subprocess model, cache behavior, and debugging procedures.
+
+#### Scenario: CLAUDE.md covers plugin lifecycle
+
+- **WHEN** a developer reads `packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL document: `buildStart` (system loading via subprocess), `resolveId`/`load` (virtual stylesheet), `transform` (per-file extraction), and dev-mode HMR behavior
+
+#### Scenario: CLAUDE.md covers Vite cache behavior
+
+- **WHEN** a developer reads `packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL document: `node_modules/.vite/` as the transform cache location, that it persists across Vite restarts, and that deleting it forces re-extraction of all files
+
+#### Scenario: CLAUDE.md covers subprocess model
+
+- **WHEN** a developer reads `packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL document: system loading via bun subprocess (imports system module, calls `.serialize()`), global styles resolution via inline bun subprocess, and why subprocesses are used (ESM isolation from Vite's module graph)
+
+#### Scenario: CLAUDE.md covers known failure modes
+
+- **WHEN** a developer reads `packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL document: Vite resolve aliases can silently break transforms (React alias incident), stale `.vite` cache serving old transforms, and the debug logging mechanism
+
+### Requirement: Package-level CLAUDE.md for showcase
+
+The `packages/showcase/` directory SHALL contain a `CLAUDE.md` file documenting the showcase's role as extraction proof, what breaks it, and how to verify extraction is working.
+
+#### Scenario: CLAUDE.md covers extraction verification
+
+- **WHEN** a developer reads `packages/showcase/CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL document: how to verify extraction works (`bun run build` in showcase dir), what the output should look like (no Emotion runtime in bundle, static CSS in assets), and expected bundle size baseline
+
+#### Scenario: CLAUDE.md covers the design system
+
+- **WHEN** a developer reads `packages/showcase/CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL document: `src/ds.ts` defines the design system via `createSystem()`, the component library in `src/components.tsx`, and that ALL components are built with the extraction-compatible `@animus-ui/system` builder
+
+#### Scenario: CLAUDE.md covers common breakage patterns
+
+- **WHEN** a developer reads `packages/showcase/CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** it SHALL document: Vite resolve aliases breaking transforms, stale Vite cache after pipeline changes, and that the showcase has no Emotion dependency (any Emotion import means extraction is broken)
+
+### Requirement: Root CLAUDE.md build system addendum
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL include a build system section (appended after existing content) documenting monorepo build order, verification commands, cache tiers, and common debugging scenarios.
+
+#### Scenario: Root CLAUDE.md covers verification loop
+
+- **WHEN** a developer reads the root `CLAUDE.md` build system section
+- **THEN** it SHALL document: `bun run verify` (fast, TS only), `bun run verify:full` (complete with Rust + showcase), `bun run rebuild` (nuclear fresh state)
+
+#### Scenario: Root CLAUDE.md covers build dependency order
+
+- **WHEN** a developer reads the root `CLAUDE.md` build system section
+- **THEN** it SHALL document the package build order: extract → core → theming → runtime → system → vite-plugin → ui → showcase
+
+#### Scenario: Root CLAUDE.md covers debugging decision tree
+
+- **WHEN** a developer reads the root `CLAUDE.md` build system section
+- **THEN** it SHALL document a decision tree: "transforms seem stale" → clean:light, "NAPI errors" → rebuild, "nothing works" → clean:full + rebuild

+## Doc Atoms Specification
+
+### Requirement: CopyButton renders copy/check feedback
+
+CopyButton SHALL display a copy icon in default state and a check icon in copied state, using lucide-react icons (`Copy`, `Check`) instead of inline SVGs. All other behavior (clipboard write, 1500ms timeout, size variants, copied state styling) remains unchanged.
+
+#### Scenario: CopyButton default state
+
+- **WHEN** CopyButton renders in default state
+- **THEN** it displays the lucide `Copy` icon at size matching the button's size variant
+
+#### Scenario: CopyButton copied state
+
+- **WHEN** user clicks CopyButton and copy succeeds
+- **THEN** it displays the lucide `Check` icon with `copied` state styling for 1500ms
+
+### Requirement: TokenBadge component
+
+A semantic colored inline badge with 7 variants. The component SHALL accept a `variant` prop with values: `'method' | 'layer' | 'type' | 'prop' | 'tag' | 'danger' | 'success'`. Each variant SHALL define a distinct `{background, borderColor, color}` triplet using the token opacity syntax (`'{colors.palette.weight/opacity}'`). Background colors SHALL use raw palette paths with 12% or 8% opacity for tinted backgrounds. Border and text colors SHALL use raw palette paths for stable identity across color modes. No hardcoded hex or rgba values.
+
+#### Scenario: Variant styling via token opacity
+
+- **WHEN** TokenBadge renders with variant="method"
+- **THEN** it displays with bg `'{colors.primary/12}'`, border from `'{colors.fire.700}'`, and color `'primary'`
+
+#### Scenario: All 7 variants render distinctly using raw palette for identity stability
+
+- **WHEN** each of the 7 variants renders side by side
+- **THEN** each has a visually distinct color scheme via raw palette paths: method=fire(red), layer=forest(green), type=violet(purple), prop=gold(amber), tag=ocean(blue), danger=fire(muted red), success=forest(muted green)
+
+#### Scenario: Color mode independence
+
+- **WHEN** the color mode changes (e.g., dark → ocean → violet)
+- **THEN** TokenBadge variant colors remain stable (raw palette refs don't shift with mode)
+
+#### Scenario: Inline usage
+
+- **WHEN** TokenBadge is placed inline within prose text
+- **THEN** it renders as an inline-flex element with monospace font, appropriate padding, and does not break text flow
+
+### Requirement: Animus extraction compatibility
+
+All doc-atom components SHALL be built with `ds.styles()`, `.variant()`, and `.states()` from the showcase design system instance. They SHALL extract to static CSS via the standard extraction pipeline.
+
+#### Scenario: CopyButton extracts
+
+- **WHEN** the showcase builds
+- **THEN** CopyButton's styled elements produce extracted CSS classes with `animus-` prefix
+
+#### Scenario: TokenBadge variants extract
+
+- **WHEN** the showcase builds
+- **THEN** each TokenBadge variant produces distinct CSS rules in `@layer variants`
+
+### Requirement: Barrel export
+
+All new doc-atom components SHALL be exported from `components/index.ts`.
+
+#### Scenario: Named exports available
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer imports `{ CopyButton, TokenBadge }` from the components barrel
+- **THEN** both components are available
+
+### Requirement: CopyButton focus visibility
+
+CopyButton SHALL display a visible focus indicator when navigated to via keyboard.
+
+#### Scenario: Keyboard focus on CopyButton
+
+- **WHEN** user tabs to a CopyButton element
+- **THEN** a focus ring outline SHALL appear via the `_focusVisible` selector alias

+## Doc Callout Specification
+
+### Requirement: Callout component
+
+An admonition/callout component with 4 semantic variants. The component SHALL accept `variant` (`'info' | 'tip' | 'warn' | 'danger'`, default `'info'`), `title` (optional string), and `children` (ReactNode). Each variant SHALL have a distinct left border color, tinted background, and icon character.
+
+#### Scenario: Variant rendering
+
+- **WHEN** Callout renders with variant="tip" and title="Best Practice"
+- **THEN** it displays with a green/teal left border, tinted background, arrow icon, "Best Practice" title, and children content
+
+#### Scenario: Without title
+
+- **WHEN** Callout renders with variant="warn" and no title prop
+- **THEN** it displays with amber left border and icon, but no title text — children render directly after the icon
+
+#### Scenario: All 4 variants are visually distinct
+
+- **WHEN** info, tip, warn, and danger Callouts render
+- **THEN** each has a distinct color scheme: info=blue, tip=teal/green, warn=amber, danger=red/accent
+
+### Requirement: MDXProvider integration
+
+Callout SHALL be available in .mdx files via explicit import. It SHALL also be registered in the MDXProvider componentMap as `Callout` (capital C) for convenience.
+
+#### Scenario: Explicit import in MDX
+
+- **WHEN** an .mdx file contains `import { Callout } from '../components'` and uses `<Callout variant="tip">content</Callout>`
+- **THEN** the Callout renders correctly with the tip variant styling
+
+#### Scenario: ComponentMap availability
+
+- **WHEN** the MDXProvider componentMap includes Callout
+- **THEN** .mdx files MAY use `<Callout>` without explicit import
+
+### Requirement: Extraction compatibility
+
+Callout SHALL be built with `ds.styles()` and `.variant()`. All variant styles SHALL extract to static CSS.
+
+#### Scenario: Callout extracts
+
+- **WHEN** the showcase builds
+- **THEN** Callout produces extracted CSS with variant rules in `@layer variants`
+
+### Requirement: Callout uses compose() for variant propagation
+
+Callout SHALL use `compose()` to create a slot family (Root, Header, Icon, Title, Body) with `{ shared: { variant: true } }`. The variant (info/tip/warn/danger) SHALL be declared once on Root and flow to Icon and Title slots automatically via CSS.
+
+#### Scenario: Variant flows to all slots
+
+- **WHEN** a Callout is rendered with `variant="warn"`
+- **THEN** the Root, Icon, and Title slots SHALL all receive the warn variant styles without manual prop passing
+
+#### Scenario: MDX usage unchanged
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX author writes `<Callout variant="tip" title="...">content</Callout>`
+- **THEN** the component SHALL render identically to the pre-compose implementation
+- **AND** no changes to the MDXProvider componentMap entry SHALL be required by content authors
+
+### Requirement: Callout convenience wrapper preserved
+
+The exported `Callout` function component SHALL maintain its existing props API (`variant`, `title`, `children`). Internal implementation changes to use the composed family. The wrapper is the public API; the compose family is internal.
+
+#### Scenario: Backwards-compatible import
+
+- **WHEN** existing code imports `{ Callout }` from the docs components
+- **THEN** the import SHALL resolve to the convenience wrapper with the same type signature

+## Doc Interactive Specification
+
+### Requirement: TabGroup provides tabbed content switching
+
+TabGroup SHALL use ark-ui Tabs primitives for keyboard navigation, focus management, and panel association while maintaining the existing consumer API (`tabs`, `activeTab`, `onChange` props). The convenience wrapper absorbs ark-ui's internal API (`value`/`onValueChange`).
+
+#### Scenario: TabGroup keyboard navigation via ark-ui
+
+- **WHEN** user presses ArrowRight on a focused tab
+- **THEN** focus moves to the next tab (with wrap-around), managed by ark-ui's Tabs primitive
+
+#### Scenario: TabGroup panel association
+
+- **WHEN** a tab is selected
+- **THEN** the corresponding panel has `aria-labelledby` referencing the tab, and the tab has `aria-controls` referencing the panel
+
+#### Scenario: TabGroup consumer API stable
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer renders `<TabGroup tabs={['A','B']} activeTab="A" onChange={fn} />`
+- **THEN** the component works identically to the pre-migration version
+
+### Requirement: LivePreview component
+
+A preview/code toggle panel for MDX documentation. The component SHALL accept `preview` (ReactNode — live rendered component), `code` (ReactNode — typically a SyntaxBlock), and optionally `defaultTab` (`'preview' | 'code'`, default `'preview'`). It SHALL render a bordered container with TabGroup toggling between the preview and code views.
+
+#### Scenario: Default preview view
+
+- **WHEN** LivePreview renders with preview and code props
+- **THEN** the preview tab is active and the rendered component is visible in a padded container
+
+#### Scenario: Switch to code view
+
+- **WHEN** user clicks the "code" tab
+- **THEN** the preview is hidden and the code content is displayed
+
+#### Scenario: MDX usage
+
+- **WHEN** an .mdx file uses `<LivePreview preview={<Button>Click</Button>} code={<SyntaxBlock>...</SyntaxBlock>} />`
+- **THEN** both the live component and its source code are viewable via tab toggle
+
+### Requirement: ChainStep displays arrow connectors
+
+ChainStep SHALL use lucide-react icons for arrow connectors between steps instead of inline SVGs. Visual appearance and step active state behavior remain unchanged.
+
+#### Scenario: ChainStep renders connector arrows
+
+- **WHEN** ChainStep renders with multiple steps
+- **THEN** arrow connectors between steps use lucide icons with `currentColor`
+
+### Requirement: ChainStep uses states instead of duplicate elements
+
+ChainStep SHALL use `.states({ active })` on a single StepLabel and single LayerLabel element instead of maintaining separate StepLabel/StepLabelActive and LayerLabel/LayerLabelActive element pairs.
+
+#### Scenario: Active step label styling
+
+- **WHEN** a step is active
+- **THEN** the StepLabel SHALL receive `active` state prop producing `color: 'primary'` via `@layer states`
+- **AND** the LayerLabel SHALL receive `active` state prop producing `color: '{colors.fire.700}'` via `@layer states`
+
+#### Scenario: Inline wrapper replaced
+
+- **WHEN** ChainStep renders step items
+- **THEN** the wrapper around each step+connector SHALL be a ds element, not a raw `<div style={...}>`
+
+### Requirement: TabGroup keyboard navigation
+
+TabGroup SHALL implement WAI-ARIA Tabs keyboard navigation with roving tabindex.
+
+#### Scenario: Arrow key navigation
+
+- **WHEN** focus is on a tab and user presses ArrowRight
+- **THEN** focus SHALL move to the next tab and activate it
+- **AND** the previous tab SHALL receive `tabIndex={-1}`, the new tab `tabIndex={0}`
+
+#### Scenario: Wrap-around navigation
+
+- **WHEN** focus is on the last tab and user presses ArrowRight
+- **THEN** focus SHALL wrap to the first tab
+
+#### Scenario: Home/End keys
+
+- **WHEN** user presses Home while focused on any tab
+- **THEN** focus SHALL move to the first tab
+- **WHEN** user presses End
+- **THEN** focus SHALL move to the last tab
+
+### Requirement: TabGroup focus visibility
+
+TabButton SHALL display a visible focus indicator via `_focusVisible` selector alias.
+
+#### Scenario: Keyboard focus on tab
+
+- **WHEN** user navigates to a tab via keyboard
+- **THEN** a focus ring SHALL appear on the focused tab button
+
+### Requirement: ChainStep provides interactive builder chain visualization
+
+ChainStep (renamed to ChainVisualizer) SHALL accept enriched step data including `description`, `code`, `repeatable`, and `available` fields. The component renders a chain strip with step buttons, connector arrows, and a detail panel below showing per-step content.
+
+#### Scenario: Step data with description and code
+
+- **WHEN** ChainVisualizer renders with steps containing description and code fields
+- **THEN** clicking a step shows its description and code example in the detail panel
+
+#### Scenario: Active step has glow
+
+- **WHEN** a step is active
+- **THEN** the step button displays a box-shadow glow using token opacity syntax, in addition to the existing active background color
+
+#### Scenario: Backward compatible with minimal step data
+
+- **WHEN** ChainVisualizer renders with steps containing only `label` and `layer` (no description/code)
+- **THEN** the chain strip renders as before with no detail panel

+## Doc Reference Specification
+
+### Requirement: TypeSignature component
+
+A function type signature display component. The component SHALL accept `name` (string), `generics` (optional string), `params` (array of `{name: string, type: string}`), and `returns` (string). It SHALL render in monospace font with color-coded parts: name in accent, generics in purple/secondary, param names in blue, param types in purple/secondary, return type in green/success.
+
+#### Scenario: Full signature rendering
+
+- **WHEN** TypeSignature renders with name=".compound", generics="V extends VariantMap", params=[{name:"condition", type:"keyof V"}], returns="CompoundBuilder<V>"
+- **THEN** it displays as `.compound<V extends VariantMap>(condition: keyof V) → CompoundBuilder<V>` with each part color-coded
+
+#### Scenario: Without generics
+
+- **WHEN** TypeSignature renders with no generics prop
+- **THEN** the generic angle brackets are omitted
+
+#### Scenario: Visual treatment
+
+- **WHEN** TypeSignature renders
+- **THEN** it has a left accent border (3px), surface background, rounded right corners, and monospace font
+
+### Requirement: ParamTable component
+
+An API parameter table component. The component SHALL accept `params` as an array of `{name: string, type: string, default: string, desc: string}`. It SHALL render using the existing Table/Th/Td components from `surfaces/Table.tsx` — it SHALL NOT implement its own table styling. The type column SHALL render each type value inside a TokenBadge with variant="type". The default column SHALL highlight "required" values in accent color.
+
+#### Scenario: Table rendering
+
+- **WHEN** ParamTable renders with 3 parameters
+- **THEN** it displays a 4-column table (Parameter | Type | Default | Description) with 3 data rows
+
+#### Scenario: Type column uses TokenBadge
+
+- **WHEN** ParamTable renders a param with type="string | string[]"
+- **THEN** the type cell contains `<TokenBadge variant="type">string | string[]</TokenBadge>`
+
+#### Scenario: Required highlighting
+
+- **WHEN** a param has default="required"
+- **THEN** the default cell renders "required" in accent/primary color
+
+### Requirement: MethodCard provides expandable detail sections
+
+MethodCard SHALL use ark-ui Accordion primitives for expand/collapse behavior while maintaining the existing consumer API. Accordion semantics (proper ARIA roles, multi-expand control) are delegated to ark-ui.
+
+#### Scenario: MethodCard expand/collapse via ark-ui
+
+- **WHEN** user clicks the MethodCard header
+- **THEN** the detail section toggles visibility, managed by ark-ui's Accordion primitive with proper `aria-expanded` state
+
+#### Scenario: MethodCard consumer API stable
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer renders `<MethodCard name="method" params={[...]} returns="void">`
+- **THEN** the component works identically to the pre-migration version
+
+### Requirement: TypeSignature uses variant-based token spans
+
+TypeSignature SHALL replace 6 single-purpose styled spans (NameSpan, GenericSpan, PunctSpan, ParamNameSpan, ParamTypeSpan, ReturnSpan) with one `TokenSpan` element using `.variant({ prop: 'role' })` with options: name, generic, punct, param, paramType, return.
+
+#### Scenario: Color mapping preserved
+
+- **WHEN** TypeSignature renders a function signature
+- **THEN** name tokens SHALL be `primary`, generic tokens `{colors.violet.400}`, punct tokens `text.dim`, param tokens `{colors.ocean.500}`, paramType tokens `{colors.violet.400}`, return tokens `{colors.forest.500}`
+
+### Requirement: MethodCard uses states for expand/collapse
+
+MethodCard Chevron SHALL use `.states({ expanded: { transform: 'rotate(180deg)' } })` instead of inline style for rotation.
+
+#### Scenario: Chevron rotation via states
+
+- **WHEN** the MethodCard is expanded
+- **THEN** the Chevron element SHALL receive the `expanded` state prop
+- **AND** the rotation SHALL be applied via `@layer states` CSS, not inline style
+
+### Requirement: MethodCard accordion accessibility
+
+MethodCard SHALL implement proper accordion ARIA semantics.
+
+#### Scenario: ARIA attributes present
+
+- **WHEN** a MethodCard renders
+- **THEN** the header button SHALL have `aria-expanded` and `aria-controls` pointing to the detail section's `id`
+- **AND** the detail section SHALL have `role="region"` and `aria-labelledby` pointing to the header

+### Requirement: Dynamic prop metadata in manifest
+
+The manifest SHALL contain dynamic prop metadata at two levels:
+
+1. **`UniverseManifest.dynamic_props`** — shared system prop dynamic metadata. Maps system prop names to `DynamicPropMeta` structs. A system prop appears here IFF the JSX scanner detected at least one dynamic usage across all files. Unchanged from current behavior.
+
+2. **Per-component custom dynamic props** — stored alongside each component's replacement data in the analyzer. Built by intersecting the component's `custom_prop_configs` with dynamic custom prop usage detected for that component's binding. NOT stored in the shared `dynamic_props` map.
+
+Each `DynamicPropMeta` (system or custom) SHALL include:
+
+- `var_name`: CSS variable name (e.g., `--animus-p` for system, `--animus-size` for custom)
+- `slot_class`: CSS class that activates the variable slot (system: `animus-dyn-p`, custom: `animus-dyn-{hash}-size`)
+- `property`: primary CSS property name
+- `properties`: multi-property list (if applicable)
+- `transform_name`: optional transform identifier
+- `scale_values`: optional pre-resolved scale value map
+
+#### Scenario: System prop dynamic metadata in shared map
+
+- **WHEN** `p` is used dynamically across files via `<Box p={someVar} />`
+- **THEN** `manifest.dynamic_props["p"]` contains the dynamic metadata
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop dynamic metadata per-component
+
+- **WHEN** Card defines `.props({ size: { property: 'flexBasis' } })` and `<Card size={someVar} />` is detected
+- **THEN** Card's per-component data includes dynamic metadata for `size`, but `manifest.dynamic_props` does NOT contain `size`
+
+#### Scenario: Same custom prop name on different components
+
+- **WHEN** Card and Button both define `.props({ size: ... })` with different CSS properties, and both have dynamic usage
+- **THEN** each component has independent dynamic metadata for `size` with different `property` values and different `slot_class` names
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with inline scale
+
+- **WHEN** a custom prop defines `scale: { xs: '10rem', sm: '15rem' }` (inline object)
+- **THEN** `scale_values` is populated directly from the inline scale (no theme lookup needed)
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with theme scale reference
+
+- **WHEN** a custom prop defines `scale: 'space'` (string reference)
+- **THEN** `scale_values` is populated by iterating theme entries matching the `space.` prefix (same as system props)
+
+### Requirement: CSS variable slot class generation
+
+For each prop in `dynamic_props`, the CSS generator SHALL produce a variable slot class that reads from CSS custom properties with breakpoint fallback chains.
+
+#### Scenario: Base variable slot class for single-property prop
+
+- **WHEN** prop `p` (property: `padding`) has dynamic usage
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL include:
+  ```css
+  @layer system {
+    .animus-dyn-p {
+      padding: var(--animus-p);
+    }
+  }
+  ```
+
+#### Scenario: Breakpoint fallback chains
+
+- **WHEN** prop `p` has dynamic usage and the system defines breakpoints `sm: 640px` and `md: 768px`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL include responsive rules with fallback chains:
+  ```css
+  @media (min-width: 640px) {
+    .animus-dyn-p {
+      padding: var(--animus-p-sm, var(--animus-p));
+    }
+  }
+  @media (min-width: 768px) {
+    .animus-dyn-p {
+      padding: var(--animus-p-md, var(--animus-p));
+    }
+  }
+  ```
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-property variable slot class
+
+- **WHEN** prop `px` (properties: `padding-left`, `padding-right`) has dynamic usage
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL include:
+  ```css
+  @layer system {
+    .animus-dyn-px {
+      padding-left: var(--animus-px);
+      padding-right: var(--animus-px);
+    }
+  }
+  ```
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop layer placement
+
+- **WHEN** a custom prop `logoSize` has dynamic usage
+- **THEN** the variable slot class SHALL be placed in `@layer custom`, not `@layer system`
+
+#### Scenario: No dynamic usage generates no slot classes
+
+- **WHEN** no props have dynamic usage across any scanned files
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain zero variable slot classes and zero CSS custom property declarations
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic prop variable naming convention
+
+System prop CSS variables SHALL use the pattern `--animus-{prop-name-kebab}` (e.g., `--animus-p`, `--animus-border-radius`).
+
+Custom prop CSS variables SHALL use the pattern `--animus-{prop-name-kebab}` (e.g., `--animus-size`, `--animus-logo-size`). Custom props do NOT require component-scoped variable names because CSS variables are applied via inline `style` on the element — each component instance is a separate DOM node.
+
+Responsive breakpoint variants append the breakpoint name: `--animus-{prop}-{bp}` (e.g., `--animus-size-sm`).
+
+Custom prop SLOT CLASSES SHALL use the pattern `animus-dyn-{classHash8}-{prop-name-kebab}` where `classHash8` is the first 8 characters of the component's class name hash. This scoping prevents collision between different components defining the same custom prop name with different CSS property targets.
+
+#### Scenario: System prop variable name
+
+- **WHEN** system prop `borderRadius` has dynamic usage
+- **THEN** variable name is `--animus-border-radius`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop variable name
+
+- **WHEN** custom prop `logoSize` has dynamic usage
+- **THEN** variable name is `--animus-logo-size`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop slot class scoped
+
+- **WHEN** Card (class `animus-Card-abc12345`) defines custom prop `size` with dynamic usage
+- **THEN** base slot class is `animus-dyn-abc12345-size`, per-bp slot classes are `animus-dyn-abc12345-size-xs`, `animus-dyn-abc12345-size-sm`, etc.
+
+#### Scenario: Two components same custom prop name
+
+- **WHEN** Card (`animus-Card-abc12345`) and Button (`animus-Button-def67890`) both define `size`
+- **THEN** slot classes are `animus-dyn-abc12345-size` and `animus-dyn-def67890-size` (no collision)
+
+### Requirement: Lazy generation
+
+Dynamic prop metadata (system or custom) SHALL only be generated for props with detected dynamic usage. Static-only props incur zero overhead — no slot class, no CSS variable, no dynamic config entry.
+
+For custom props: if a component defines `.props({ size: ..., color: ... })` but only `size` has dynamic usage, only `size` gets dynamic metadata. `color` is handled purely via static utility classes.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop static-only
+
+- **WHEN** Card defines `.props({ size: ... })` and all JSX usages are static (`size="sm"`)
+- **THEN** no dynamic metadata is generated for `size`, no slot class emitted
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop mixed static and dynamic
+
+- **WHEN** Card defines `.props({ size: ... })` with both `size="sm"` and `size={someVar}` in JSX
+- **THEN** static utility class AND dynamic slot class are both generated for `size`

+## Purpose
+
+Defines the repository's `e2e/` directory convention: a top-level sibling to `packages/` and `legacy/` that holds consumer fixture applications whose test surface is a whole built app asserted against positional output. This capability separates three purposes that were previously conflated under `packages/`: what ships (publishable libraries), what verifies the pipeline (deep-internal private packages), and what proves consumer-bundler behavior (fixture apps). It also establishes a one-way dependency rule across the three top-level code directories (`packages/`, `e2e/`, `legacy/`) that preserves the publish boundary and keeps imports flowing in a single, predictable direction.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: e2e Directory Location
+
+The repository SHALL contain an `e2e/` directory at the repository root, sibling to `packages/`, `legacy/`, `scripts/`, and `openspec/`. The `e2e/` directory SHALL hold consumer fixture applications whose test surface is a whole built app asserted against positional output.
+
+#### Scenario: e2e is a top-level sibling
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer lists the repository root
+- **THEN** `e2e/` appears as a top-level directory alongside `packages/`, `legacy/`, `scripts/`, `openspec/`
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer fixture apps reside under e2e
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer locates consumer fixture apps (e.g., `next-app`, and in future changes `vite-app`)
+- **THEN** they are found under `e2e/<name>/`, not `packages/<name>/`
+
+### Requirement: What Belongs in e2e
+
+A package SHALL reside under `e2e/` if and only if it meets all of the following criteria:
+
+- It is a runnable application (Next.js, Vite, webpack, or equivalent), not a library.
+- Its test surface is "build the app, assert properties of the built output" — not `bun test`.
+- It exists to verify consumer-bundler integration or end-to-end pipeline behavior, not to ship to users.
+- It is `private: true`.
+
+Packages that are libraries (even private test-only ones like `test-ds` or `_assertions`) remain in `packages/`. Packages that are shipping applications (`showcase` if its primary purpose becomes deployment) remain in `packages/` at maintainer discretion.
+
+#### Scenario: next-app qualifies
+
+- **WHEN** evaluating `e2e/next-app`
+- **THEN** it meets all criteria: Next.js application, asserted via shell/TS post-build assertions, exists to verify `next-plugin` extraction, `private: true`
+
+#### Scenario: test-ds does NOT qualify
+
+- **WHEN** evaluating `packages/test-ds`
+- **THEN** it fails the first criterion (it is a library, not a runnable app) and therefore remains in `packages/`
+
+#### Scenario: showcase remains in packages
+
+- **WHEN** evaluating `packages/showcase`
+- **THEN** it is a runnable Vite application AND asserted via post-build AND verifies bundler integration — however, it is also the deployed documentation site with external consumers (Netlify). Placement is at maintainer discretion; current decision is to keep it in `packages/` because deployment purpose dominates.
+
+### Requirement: e2e Workspace Naming Convention
+
+Directories under `e2e/` SHALL use bundler-keyed short names of the form `<bundler>-app` when the primary distinguishing concern is the bundler (e.g., `next-app`, `vite-app`, `webpack-app`). When the distinguishing concern is different (e.g., a specific feature being exercised), descriptive names SHALL be used.
+
+The naming convention avoids redundancy with the `e2e/` parent (no `e2e/next-test-app` or `e2e/next-e2e-app`).
+
+#### Scenario: Bundler-keyed names
+
+- **WHEN** an `e2e/*` directory is named
+- **THEN** bundler-specific fixtures use `<bundler>-app` (e.g., `next-app`, `vite-app`)
+
+#### Scenario: No redundant prefixes
+
+- **WHEN** an `e2e/*` directory is named
+- **THEN** it does NOT contain `e2e`, `test`, or `fixture` as prefix/suffix (since `e2e/` already conveys this)
+
+### Requirement: One-Way Dependency Rule
+
+Source code in `e2e/*` MAY import from `packages/*`. Source code in `packages/*` MUST NOT import from `e2e/*`. Source code in `packages/*` and `e2e/*` MUST NOT import from `legacy/*`.
+
+This rule mirrors the publish boundary: `packages/*` is the publish graph (plus deep-internal private packages); `e2e/*` is downstream verification infrastructure. Dependencies flow top-down (consumer direction).
+
+#### Scenario: e2e imports packages
+
+- **WHEN** a file in `e2e/next-app/src/` imports `@animus-ui/system`
+- **THEN** the import is permitted (top-down, consumer direction)
+
+#### Scenario: packages does NOT import e2e
+
+- **WHEN** a file in `packages/system/src/` attempts to import from `e2e/next-app/`
+- **THEN** the import is forbidden by this rule
+- **AND** review SHOULD reject the change
+
+#### Scenario: Neither imports legacy
+
+- **WHEN** a file in `packages/` or `e2e/` imports from any `legacy/` path or any `@animus-ui/<archived-name>`
+- **THEN** the import is forbidden by the `legacy-directory-topology` spec's one-way independence rule
+
+### Requirement: Root CLAUDE.md Documents Workspace Topology
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL contain a `## Workspace Topology` section describing the three-directory convention:
+
+- `packages/` — publishable packages + deep-internal private packages (`_integration`, `_assertions`, `test-ds`, `showcase`)
+- `e2e/` — consumer fixture applications (build + assert post-build)
+- `legacy/` — archived packages preserved for reference only
+
+The section SHALL state the one-way dependency rule.
+
+#### Scenario: Agent reads workspace topology
+
+- **WHEN** an agent loads root `CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** a `## Workspace Topology` section describes the three directories
+- **AND** the one-way dependency rule is stated explicitly
+
+### Requirement: e2e Directory Initial Contents
+
+After the `e2e-workspace-topology` change is applied, `e2e/` SHALL contain `next-app/`, migrated from `packages/next-test-app/` via `git mv`.
+
+Additional `e2e/*` directories (e.g., `vite-app`) MAY be added in subsequent changes.
+
+#### Scenario: next-app is the initial member
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer lists `e2e/`
+- **THEN** `next-app/` is present
+- **AND** it was migrated via `git mv` from `packages/next-test-app/` (history preserved as rename)

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: extend() provides flexible method ordering
+
+The AnimusExtended class hierarchy SHALL mirror the primary Animus chain but allow methods to be called in ANY order. Each method SHALL merge its configuration with existing configuration using `merge({}, existing, new)` (immutable merge), enabling additive modification of any cascade layer.
+
+#### Scenario: Styles can be added after states
+
+- **WHEN** `Button.extend().states({ loading: {...} }).styles({ cursor: 'wait' })` is called
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL compile successfully and the extended component SHALL have both the new state and the new base styles merged with the parent's configuration
+
+#### Scenario: Merge is immutable
+
+- **WHEN** `.variant({...})` is called on an AnimusExtended instance
+- **THEN** a NEW object SHALL be created via `merge({}, this.variants, { [prop]: options })`, preserving the parent instance's state
+
+### Requirement: Extension preserves parent configuration
+
+When `.extend()` is called on a terminal component, the returned AnimusExtended instance SHALL be seeded with ALL 8 configuration fields from the parent: propRegistry, groupRegistry, parser, baseStyles, variants, statesConfig, activeGroups, and custom.
+
+#### Scenario: Extended component inherits parent styles
+
+- **WHEN** `const Primary = Button.extend().styles({ bg: 'blue' }).asElement('button')` is created from a Button with `.styles({ padding: 10 })`
+- **THEN** Primary SHALL have BOTH `padding: 10` (from parent) AND `bg: 'blue'` (from extension) in its base styles, merged together
+
+#### Scenario: Extended component inherits parent variants
+
+- **WHEN** Button has `.variant({ prop: 'size', variants: { sm: {...}, lg: {...} } })` and Primary extends without adding variants
+- **THEN** Primary SHALL accept the `size` prop with the same `sm` and `lg` options as the parent
+
+### Requirement: Extension cascade ordering for CSS output
+
+When styles are extracted to CSS, extended component rules SHALL be emitted AFTER their parent's rules within the same @layer. This guarantees that extension rules override parent rules through CSS source order (same specificity, later wins) without requiring specificity escalation.
+
+#### Scenario: Extension base styles override parent base styles
+
+- **WHEN** Button has `.styles({ padding: 10 })` and PrimaryButton extends with `.styles({ padding: 16 })`
+- **AND** both are extracted to `@layer base`
+- **THEN** PrimaryButton's `padding: 16` rule SHALL appear AFTER Button's `padding: 10` rule within `@layer base`, causing the extension to win via source order
+
+#### Scenario: Deep extension chains maintain topological order
+
+- **WHEN** A extends nothing, B extends A, C extends B
+- **AND** all are extracted to `@layer base`
+- **THEN** the rule order within `@layer base` SHALL be: A's rules, then B's rules, then C's rules
+
+### Requirement: Extension supports multi-level chains
+
+The `.extend()` method SHALL be available on both primary chain terminals and extended chain terminals, enabling arbitrary depth of extension.
+
+#### Scenario: Chained extensions
+
+- **WHEN** `const C = B.extend().styles({...}).asElement('div')` where B was itself created via `A.extend().styles({...}).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** C SHALL carry the merged configuration of A + B + C, with C's rules winning on conflicts via merge semantics and cascade ordering
+
+### Requirement: Extension chains are extractable
+
+Extension chains (e.g., `Button.extend().styles({...}).asElement('div')`) SHALL be extractable by the static analysis pipeline when all stages are statically evaluable. The `.extend()` call itself is NOT a bail condition — it is recognized as the chain root pattern for extension.
+
+#### Scenario: Simple extension extracts
+
+- **WHEN** `Button.extend().styles({ borderRadius: 8 }).asElement('button')` is analyzed and Button's definition is found in the project
+- **THEN** the extension chain SHALL be extracted, producing merged CSS (Button's styles + borderRadius override) with a unique class name
+
+#### Scenario: Extension with non-static stage bails
+
+- **WHEN** `Button.extend().styles({ color: dynamicVar }).asElement('button')` is analyzed
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL bail with a static evaluation error, same as primary chains
+
+#### Scenario: Extension with unresolvable parent bails
+
+- **WHEN** `UnknownComponent.extend().styles({...}).asElement('div')` is analyzed and `UnknownComponent` cannot be traced to any animus chain definition in the project
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL bail with reason "could not resolve parent component"
+
+### Requirement: Extension with .asComponent() is extractable
+
+Extension chains terminating with `.asComponent(SomeComponent)` SHALL be extractable. The CSS comes from the merged chain (parent + extension overrides). The component reference (`SomeComponent`) is preserved as a runtime import in the transformed source.
+
+#### Scenario: asComponent extension extracts CSS
+
+- **WHEN** `Anchor.extend().states({ active: {} }).asComponent(NextLink)` is analyzed
+- **THEN** the CSS SHALL contain the merged styles (Anchor's base + variant + state CSS, plus the state override) in the correct @layer blocks with the extension's own class name
+
+#### Scenario: asComponent reference preserved in transform
+
+- **WHEN** the above extension is transformed
+- **THEN** the transformed source SHALL contain `createComponent(NextLink, 'animus-Link-hash', config)` where `NextLink` remains a runtime import reference, NOT a string literal
+
+#### Scenario: asComponent on primary chain still bails
+
+- **WHEN** `animus.styles({...}).asComponent(Link)` is analyzed (PRIMARY chain, not extension)
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL still bail — `.asComponent()` on primary chains requires the full Emotion runtime for component wrapping. Only extension chains with a resolvable parent support `.asComponent()` extraction.

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Plugin resolves external packages to source directories
+
+When `.includes()` declares external packages, the plugin SHALL resolve each package specifier via the bundler's resolver to obtain the dist entry path, walk up to the package root (directory containing `package.json`), then target `src/` if present. If `src/` does not exist, the plugin falls back to the dist entry directory.
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace package with src/ directory
+
+- **WHEN** `.includes([testDs])` references `@animus-ui/test-ds` and the resolved package root contains `src/`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL walk `<pkg-root>/src/` for source files and redirect module resolution to `src/index.ts`
+
+#### Scenario: Package without src/ directory (npm-installed)
+
+- **WHEN** a discovered package resolves to a root without a `src/` directory
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL fall back to the dist entry, add it to file entries, and exempt the dist directory from extension and node_modules filters
+
+#### Scenario: Unresolvable package name
+
+- **WHEN** a specifier discovered from `.includes()` cannot be resolved via the bundler's resolver
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL silently skip that package — extraction continues with remaining packages and app files
+
+### Requirement: External package files use identical file filters
+
+Files discovered from external packages SHALL apply the same inclusion and exclusion filters as app source files: include `.ts` and `.tsx` extensions, exclude files matching `.test.`, `.spec.`, and any `node_modules` subdirectory within the package.
+
+#### Scenario: Test files excluded from external package
+
+- **WHEN** an external package's `src/` directory contains `Button.test.tsx`
+- **THEN** that file SHALL NOT be included in the file entries passed to the Rust analyzer
+
+#### Scenario: Source files included from external package
+
+- **WHEN** an external package's `src/` directory contains `Button.tsx` and `Card.tsx`
+- **THEN** both files SHALL be included in the file entries passed to `analyzeProject()`
+
+### Requirement: External package files processed identically to app files
+
+File entries from external packages SHALL be passed to `analyzeProject()` and `transform_file()` in the same array as app source file entries, with no special-casing or different treatment by the Rust layer.
+
+#### Scenario: External and app files in same analyzeProject call
+
+- **WHEN** the app has 50 source files and test-ds has 10 source files
+- **THEN** `analyzeProject()` SHALL receive 60 file entries in a single call
+
+#### Scenario: Token refs in library components resolve against consumer theme
+
+- **WHEN** a library component uses `bg: 'primary'` and the consumer's theme defines `--color-primary`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS for that component SHALL contain `background: var(--color-primary)`
+
+### Requirement: Consumer system config remains singular authority
+
+The plugin SHALL NOT load, parse, or merge any `ds.ts` or system config found within external package directories. Only the consumer's configured `system` path is loaded via subprocess.
+
+#### Scenario: Library ds.ts is ignored
+
+- **WHEN** an external package contains `src/system.ts` exporting a SystemInstance
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL include that file in file entries for extraction only if it contains analyzable component code — it SHALL NOT load it as a system config

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Pipeline utility exports
+
+Extract SHALL export pipeline utility functions from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` that any bundler host can compose to complete the extraction pipeline. These are the shared bridge between the Rust NAPI core and framework-specific plugin code.
+
+#### Scenario: Utilities importable from pipeline subpath
+
+- **WHEN** a bundler plugin imports from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`
+- **THEN** it SHALL have access to `applyUnitFallback`, `applyPrefix`, `resolveGlobalStyles`, `resolveTokenAliases`, `resolveValue`, `assembleStylesheet`, `validateLayerOrder`, `extractSystemFilePackages`, and `camelToKebab`
+- **AND** it SHALL NOT export `execSubprocess` or `detectRuntime` (dead code removed)
+
+#### Scenario: No orchestrator wrapper
+
+- **WHEN** a bundler plugin needs to run the extraction pipeline
+- **THEN** it SHALL call `analyzeProject()` from `@animus-ui/extract` directly for NAPI analysis, then compose pipeline utilities for post-processing. There is no single `runExtraction()` wrapper — each host owns its own lifecycle.
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest includes pipeline timing
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` completes and returns its JSON manifest
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL include a `timing` object containing per-phase durations and metadata (file count, cache hits, total duration)
+
+### Requirement: Global styles resolution function
+
+Extract SHALL export a `resolveGlobalStyles()` function that resolves prop shorthand in global style objects to CSS.
+
+#### Scenario: Prop shorthand resolved
+
+- **WHEN** `resolveGlobalStyles({ 'html, body': { bg: 'background', color: 'text' } }, ...)` is called
+- **THEN** the result SHALL contain CSS with resolved property names and theme scale values
+
+#### Scenario: Token aliases resolved
+
+- **WHEN** a global style value contains `{colors.ember/40}`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS SHALL contain `color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-ember) 40%, transparent)`
+
+#### Scenario: @keyframes blocks resolved
+
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains an `@keyframes` selector with nested percentages
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS SHALL contain properly formatted `@keyframes { 0% { ... } 100% { ... } }` with prop shorthand resolved within each frame
+
+### Requirement: Unit fallback function
+
+Extract SHALL export an `applyUnitFallback()` function. The function SHALL import the unitless property set from `@animus-ui/properties` rather than defining it inline.
+
+#### Scenario: Bare numerics get px suffix
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `padding: 16` (bare numeric on a length property)
+- **THEN** the output SHALL contain `padding: 16px`
+
+#### Scenario: Unitless properties preserved
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `opacity: 0.5` or `z-index: 100`
+- **THEN** the output SHALL NOT add a px suffix
+
+#### Scenario: Unitless set sourced from properties package
+
+- **WHEN** `applyUnitFallback` checks whether a property is unitless
+- **THEN** it SHALL use `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES` imported from `@animus-ui/properties`, not an inline definition
+
+### Requirement: Prefix application covers all serialized artifacts
+
+`applyPrefix` SHALL apply the namespace prefix to ALL serialized theme artifacts: `variableMapJson`, `variableCss`, `themeJson`, AND `contextualVarsJson`.
+
+#### Scenario: Contextual variable CSS with prefix
+
+- **WHEN** prefix is `"acme"` and the theme declares `declareContextualVars({ colors: ['bg'] })`
+- **THEN** the emitted contextual variable CSS SHALL use `--acme-current-bg` (not `--current-bg`) and reference `var(--acme-color-bg)` (not `var(--color-bg)`)
+
+#### Scenario: No prefix configured
+
+- **WHEN** prefix is empty or undefined
+- **THEN** `applyPrefix` SHALL return `contextualVarsJson` unchanged
+
+### Requirement: Manifest includes per-component CSS fragments
+
+The `analyzeProject()` manifest SHALL include a `component_fragments` field containing per-component CSS for the 4 splittable layers (base, variants, compounds, states). The `css` and `sheets` fields SHALL continue to be present and unchanged.
+
+#### Scenario: Fragments alongside existing fields
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` returns the manifest JSON
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL contain `css` (full concatenated), `sheets` (per-layer), AND `component_fragments` (per-component per-layer)
+
+### Requirement: Manifest includes reverse provenance
+
+The `analyzeProject()` manifest SHALL include a `reverse_provenance` field mapping parent component_ids to their direct children for transitive cache invalidation.
+
+#### Scenario: Reverse provenance present
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` returns the manifest JSON and extension chains exist
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL contain `reverse_provenance` mapping parent component_ids to arrays of child component_ids

+## Purpose
+
+Extraction diagnostics surface bail reasons, per-property skip warnings, reconciliation eliminations, and verbose phase logging from the Rust crate and Vite plugin to the console.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Reconciliation elimination warnings always print
+
+The plugin SHALL print a warning via Vite's logger for every component eliminated during reconciliation, regardless of verbose mode. Each warning SHALL include the component binding name and the elimination reason from `manifest.report.eliminated_details`.
+
+#### Scenario: Component eliminated as not rendered
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject` produces a manifest where `report.eliminated_details` contains an entry with `kind: "component"` and `reason: "component not rendered and not a parent"`
+- **THEN** the plugin prints `[animus] ⚠ <binding> eliminated: not rendered and not a parent` via `logger.warn()`
+
+#### Scenario: Variant option eliminated
+
+- **WHEN** `report.eliminated_details` contains an entry with `kind: "variant"`
+- **THEN** the plugin prints `[animus] ⚠ <binding> variant '<name>' pruned: <reason>` via `logger.warn()`
+
+#### Scenario: No eliminations
+
+- **WHEN** `report.eliminated_details` is empty
+- **THEN** no elimination warnings are printed
+
+### Requirement: Extraction bail and skip warnings always print
+
+The plugin SHALL print bail reasons and per-property skip warnings from the manifest's `diagnostics` array, regardless of verbose mode.
+
+#### Scenario: Bail warning printed by default
+
+- **WHEN** the manifest contains a diagnostic with `kind: "bail"`
+- **THEN** the plugin prints `[animus] ⚠ <component> not extracted: <message>` via `logger.warn()`
+
+#### Scenario: Skip warning printed by default
+
+- **WHEN** the manifest contains a diagnostic with `kind: "skip"`
+- **THEN** the plugin prints `[animus] ⚠ <component>: skipped <message>` via `logger.warn()`
+
+#### Scenario: No diagnostics produces no output
+
+- **WHEN** the manifest has an empty `diagnostics` array
+- **THEN** no additional warnings are printed
+
+### Requirement: Verbose mode activation
+
+The plugin SHALL activate verbose logging when either `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1` environment variable is set OR `verbose: true` is passed in plugin options. The `verbose` option SHALL be added to `AnimusExtractOptions`.
+
+#### Scenario: Env var activation
+
+- **WHEN** `process.env.ANIMUS_DEBUG` is `"1"` or `"true"`
+- **THEN** verbose logging is active for all phases
+
+#### Scenario: Plugin option activation
+
+- **WHEN** `animusExtract({ verbose: true })` is configured
+- **THEN** verbose logging is active for all phases
+
+#### Scenario: Default off
+
+- **WHEN** neither env var nor option is set
+- **THEN** only elimination and extraction diagnostics print (no verbose output)
+
+### Requirement: buildStart phase logging
+
+When verbose mode is active, the plugin SHALL log checkpoints at each phase of `buildStart` with timing.
+
+#### Scenario: System load checkpoint
+
+- **WHEN** system subprocess completes
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] System loaded: <n> props, <n> groups (<ms>ms)`
+
+#### Scenario: File discovery checkpoint
+
+- **WHEN** file discovery completes
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] Discovered <n> files (<n> from packages)`
+
+#### Scenario: Analysis checkpoint
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject` returns
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] Extracted <extracted>/<total> components (<ms>ms)`
+
+#### Scenario: Reconciliation summary
+
+- **WHEN** manifest report is parsed
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] Reconciliation: <n> components, <n> variants pruned, <n> states pruned`
+
+#### Scenario: CSS summary
+
+- **WHEN** CSS string is assembled
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] CSS: <n> bytes (<n> components)`
+
+### Requirement: Transform phase logging
+
+When verbose mode is active, the plugin SHALL log each file transformation.
+
+#### Scenario: File with components transformed
+
+- **WHEN** `transformFile` returns `hasComponents: true`
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] transform <relative-path>: <n> components`
+
+#### Scenario: File with no components
+
+- **WHEN** `transformFile` returns `hasComponents: false`
+- **THEN** no transform log is emitted (to reduce noise)
+
+### Requirement: HMR phase logging
+
+When verbose mode is active, the plugin SHALL log HMR decisions.
+
+#### Scenario: File unchanged by content hash
+
+- **WHEN** HMR detects a file change but content hash matches cached value
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] HMR skip: <filename> (unchanged)`
+
+#### Scenario: Geological reset triggered
+
+- **WHEN** HMR detects a change to the system file, triggering full re-analysis
+- **THEN** plugin logs `[animus] HMR geological reset: <filename>`
+
+### Requirement: Grep-friendly output format
+
+All diagnostic output from the plugin SHALL be prefixed with `[animus]` to enable filtering in mixed Vite output.
+
+#### Scenario: Output prefix
+
+- **WHEN** any diagnostic message is emitted
+- **THEN** the message starts with `[animus]`
+
+#### Scenario: Grep filtering
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1 bun run build 2>&1 | grep '\[animus\]'`
+- **THEN** all and only extraction diagnostic output is captured
+
+### Requirement: Extraction diagnostics in manifest
+
+The project analysis manifest SHALL include a `diagnostics` array containing bail reasons and per-property skip warnings for all analyzed components.
+
+#### Scenario: Bail diagnostic included
+
+- **WHEN** a chain bails during project analysis (e.g., unknown method, spread element)
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL include a diagnostic with `kind: "bail"`, the component binding name, the file path, and the bail reason message
+
+#### Scenario: Skip diagnostic included
+
+- **WHEN** a property is skipped during extraction (e.g., variable reference, function call)
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL include a diagnostic with `kind: "skip"`, the component binding name, the file path, and a message describing which property was skipped and why
+
+#### Scenario: No diagnostics when fully extracted
+
+- **WHEN** all chains extract successfully with no skipped properties
+- **THEN** the `diagnostics` array SHALL be empty
+
+### Requirement: Diagnostics are always-on in console
+
+The Vite plugin SHALL print extraction diagnostics (bail and skip warnings) to the console by default, NOT gated by the `verbose` flag. This matches the existing behavior of elimination warnings.
+
+#### Scenario: Bail warning printed by default
+
+- **WHEN** the manifest contains a bail diagnostic
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL print `[animus] ⚠ ComponentName not extracted: reason` via the Vite logger warn channel
+
+#### Scenario: Skip warning printed by default
+
+- **WHEN** the manifest contains a skip diagnostic
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL print `[animus] ⚠ ComponentName: skipped property 'propName' (reason)` via the Vite logger warn channel
+
+#### Scenario: Verbose mode not required
+
+- **WHEN** the `verbose` option is false and `ANIMUS_DEBUG` is not set
+- **THEN** bail and skip warnings SHALL still be printed

+### Requirement: Configurable emitter paths
+
+The Rust `transform_emitter.rs` SHALL accept an `EmitterConfig` struct specifying the runtime import source and CSS module ID. When no config is provided, the emitter SHALL use default values (`@animus-ui/system` and `virtual:animus/styles.css`).
+
+#### Scenario: Default emitter config
+
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` is called without emitter config (or with null)
+- **THEN** `transform_file()` SHALL emit `import { createComponent } from '@animus-ui/system'` and `import 'virtual:animus/styles.css'`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom emitter config for Next.js
+
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` is called with `emitter_config_json: '{"runtime_import":"@animus-ui/system","css_module_id":".animus/styles.css"}'`
+- **THEN** `transform_file()` SHALL emit `import { createComponent } from '@animus-ui/system'` and `import '.animus/styles.css'`
+
+#### Scenario: Emitter config persists in manifest
+
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` receives an emitter config
+- **THEN** the returned manifest JSON SHALL include the emitter config so that `transform_file()` can read it without additional parameters
+
+### Requirement: EmitterConfig struct
+
+The `EmitterConfig` struct SHALL have two fields: `runtime_import` (String) and `css_module_id` (String). It SHALL be deserializable from JSON via serde.
+
+#### Scenario: Struct deserialization
+
+- **WHEN** the JSON `{"runtime_import":"@animus-ui/system","css_module_id":".animus/styles.css"}` is deserialized
+- **THEN** the resulting `EmitterConfig` SHALL have `runtime_import = "@animus-ui/system"` and `css_module_id = ".animus/styles.css"`
+
+### Requirement: system_props_module_id emitter config field
+
+The `EmitterConfig` SHALL support an optional `system_props_module_id` field specifying the module path for the system props import. When provided, the Rust emitter SHALL use this path for `import { systemPropMap } from '<system_props_module_id>'` in transformed files.
+
+#### Scenario: Next.js emitter config with system_props_module_id
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `emitter_config_json: '{"runtime_import":"@animus-ui/system/runtime","css_module_id":".animus/styles.css","system_props_module_id":"/abs/path/.animus/system-props.js"}'`
+- **THEN** transformed files with system props SHALL import from the specified `system_props_module_id` path
+
+#### Scenario: Vite emitter config without system_props_module_id
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called without `system_props_module_id` in the config
+- **THEN** the emitter SHALL fall back to the default `virtual:animus/system-props` path
+
+### Requirement: Emitter config consistency between pipeline paths
+
+The webpack plugin SHALL use identical `emitterConfig` values in both `runFullPipeline()` and `runIncrementalPipeline()`. All three fields (`runtime_import`, `css_module_id`, `system_props_module_id`) SHALL match between the two paths.
+
+#### Scenario: Incremental emitterConfig matches full
+
+- **WHEN** `runIncrementalPipeline()` constructs its `emitterConfig`
+- **THEN** `css_module_id` SHALL be `'.animus/styles.css'` (not a system-props path)
+- **AND** `system_props_module_id` SHALL be the absolute path to `.animus/system-props.js`
+- **AND** `runtime_import` SHALL be `'@animus-ui/system/runtime'`
+
+#### Scenario: Replacement strings use correct imports after incremental
+
+- **WHEN** a component is re-analyzed during incremental pipeline
+- **THEN** its replacement string SHALL contain `import '.animus/styles.css'` for CSS (not a system-props path)
+- **AND** its replacement string SHALL contain the correct system-props import path

+
+#### Scenario: Report component counts
+
+- **WHEN** the project has 12 components, 10 extracted, 1 eliminated (unused)

+### Requirement: createComponent factory
+
+`createComponent(element, className, config, systemPropMap?, dynamicPropConfig?)` SHALL be the sole export from `@animus-ui/system` for building extracted components. The `config` object SHALL accept optional `customPropMap` and `customDynamicConfig` fields for per-component custom prop resolution.
+
+When `props.asChild` is `true`, `createComponent` SHALL resolve className and dynamic styles as usual, then delegate rendering to the single child element via `cloneElement` instead of rendering its own element via `createElement`. The `asChild` prop SHALL be included in the `filterProps` set and never forwarded to the DOM.
+
+- `customPropMap`: `Record<string, Record<string, string>>` — maps custom prop name → value key → CSS class name. Same structure as `systemPropMap` but scoped to one component.
+- `customDynamicConfig`: `Record<string, { varName, slotClass, property, properties?, transformName?, transform?, scaleValues? }>` — per-component CSS variable fallback metadata for dynamic custom props.
+
+When resolving a prop value at render time, the runtime SHALL check `customPropMap` first, then `systemPropMap`. If a match is found in `customPropMap`, the corresponding class is applied and no further lookup occurs. This ensures custom props override system props when names overlap.
+
+For dynamic custom props (value not found in `customPropMap`), the runtime SHALL check `customDynamicConfig` for CSS variable slot metadata. Resolution follows the same order as system dynamic props: scale value lookup → transform → unit fallback. CSS variables are applied via the element's inline `style` attribute.
+
+#### Scenario: Static custom prop resolved via customPropMap
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `config.customPropMap = { size: { sm: 'animus-u-abc' } }` and receives `size="sm"`
+- **THEN** `animus-u-abc` class is added to the element and `size` is not forwarded to the DOM
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic custom prop resolved via customDynamicConfig
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `config.customDynamicConfig = { size: { varName: '--animus-size', slotClass: 'animus-dyn-x-size', property: 'flex-basis', scaleValues: { sm: '15rem' } } }` and receives `size={someVar}`
+- **THEN** the slot class `animus-dyn-x-size` is added to the element and `--animus-size` is set as an inline style variable with the resolved value
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with scale resolution
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `customDynamicConfig.size.scaleValues = { xs: '10rem', sm: '15rem' }` and receives `size="sm"` dynamically
+- **THEN** the CSS variable `--animus-size` is set to `15rem` (scale-resolved value)
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with transform
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `customDynamicConfig.spacing.transform` set to a transform function and receives `spacing={4}`
+- **THEN** the transform is applied to the raw value before setting the CSS variable
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop takes precedence over system prop
+
+- **WHEN** a component has both `systemPropMap` entry for `p` and `customPropMap` entry for `p`, and receives `p="lg"`
+- **THEN** the `customPropMap` entry is used, not the `systemPropMap` entry
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive custom prop with dynamic value
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `customDynamicConfig` for `size` and receives `size={{ _: baseVal, sm: smVal }}`
+- **THEN** the runtime applies base slot class (`animus-dyn-{hash}-size`) and per-bp slot class (`animus-dyn-{hash}-size-sm`), sets `--animus-size` to the resolved base value and `--animus-size-sm` to the resolved sm value
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive dynamic prop only applies used breakpoint classes
+
+- **WHEN** a component receives `p={{ _: 8, md: 16 }}` dynamically
+- **THEN** the runtime applies `.animus-dyn-p` and `.animus-dyn-p-md` only — breakpoint classes for xs, sm, lg, xl are NOT applied
+
+#### Scenario: asChild rendering delegates to child element
+
+- **WHEN** a component receives `asChild={true}` with a single React element child
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL resolve className and dynamic styles as usual, then call `cloneElement` on the child with merged className, composed ref, and merged style — instead of calling `createElement` with its own element tag
+
+#### Scenario: asChild prop filtered from DOM
+
+- **WHEN** a component receives `asChild={true}`
+- **THEN** `asChild` SHALL NOT appear as a DOM attribute on the rendered element
+
+### Requirement: Ref forwarding
+
+The component returned by `createComponent` SHALL forward refs to the underlying DOM element.
+
+#### Scenario: Forward ref
+
+- **WHEN** a ref is passed to the component via `ref={myRef}`
+- **THEN** `myRef.current` SHALL reference the underlying DOM element (e.g., the `<button>` element)
+
+### Requirement: Prop filtering includes all prop types
+
+All prop types — variant props, state props, system prop names, and custom prop names — SHALL be stripped from the `domProps` object before forwarding to the underlying DOM element. Custom prop names are included in the `systemPropNames` array alongside system prop names. The `as` prop SHALL also be excluded from DOM forwarding.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop names filtered from DOM
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `config.systemPropNames = ['p', 'mx', 'size', 'logoSize']` where `size` and `logoSize` are custom props
+- **THEN** none of `p`, `mx`, `size`, or `logoSize` are forwarded to the DOM element
+
+### Requirement: Polymorphic `as` prop
+
+The component returned by `createComponent` SHALL accept an `as` prop that overrides the rendered element at usage time. The `as` prop SHALL accept either an HTML tag name (`keyof JSX.IntrinsicElements`) or a React component that accepts `className` in its props (`ComponentType<{ className?: string }>`). Components that do not accept `className` SHALL be rejected at the type level. The `as` prop SHALL NOT be forwarded to the rendered element.
+
+#### Scenario: Override element with HTML tag
+
+- **WHEN** a component created with `createComponent('div', ...)` is rendered with `as="section"`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL be a `<section>` with the extracted class names applied
+
+#### Scenario: Override element with React component
+
+- **WHEN** a component created with `createComponent('a', ...)` is rendered with `as={NextLink}` where NextLink accepts `className`
+- **THEN** the rendered element SHALL be `<NextLink className="..." />` with all extracted class names forwarded
+
+#### Scenario: Component without className rejected at type level
+
+- **WHEN** a component is used with `as={SomeComponent}` where `SomeComponent` does not accept `className` in its props
+- **THEN** the TypeScript compiler SHALL report a type error
+
+#### Scenario: as prop is filtered from DOM
+
+- **WHEN** a component is rendered with `as="section"`
+- **THEN** the `as` prop SHALL NOT be forwarded to the underlying element as an HTML attribute
+
+#### Scenario: Types remain static
+
+- **WHEN** a component created with `.asElement('div')` is rendered with `as="button"`
+- **THEN** the component's ref type and element-specific props SHALL remain as `HTMLDivElement` — the `as` prop does NOT mutate the component's type signature
+
+### Requirement: Extend method directs to source-code extension
+
+The component returned by `createComponent` SHALL have an `.extend()` method that throws an error directing the developer to use the builder API in source code. Extracted components cannot be runtime-extended because their configuration contains resolved CSS values, not the original Prop/Parser objects that AnimusExtended requires. Extensions MUST be authored in source code where the extraction pipeline can trace them at build time.
+
+#### Scenario: Extend an extracted component throws
+
+- **WHEN** `Button.extend()` is called on an extracted component at runtime
+- **THEN** it SHALL throw an Error with a message explaining that extensions must be authored in source code using the builder API, so the extraction pipeline can resolve them at build time
+
+#### Scenario: Source-code extension is extractable
+
+- **WHEN** a developer writes `import { Button } from './Button'; const Primary = Button.extend().styles({...}).asElement('button')` in source code
+- **THEN** the extraction pipeline SHALL resolve the extension at build time via the manifest (Arc 3), producing correct merged CSS without any runtime extension
+
+### Requirement: Bundle size
+
+The runtime shim package (`@animus-ui/runtime`) SHALL be less than 1KB gzipped, excluding React as a peer dependency.
+
+#### Scenario: Measure bundle size
+
+- **WHEN** the runtime package is built and gzip-compressed
+- **THEN** the compressed size SHALL be under 1024 bytes
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic style memoization
+
+Dynamic CSS variable styles for both system props and custom props SHALL be memoized via `useRef`. The runtime SHALL maintain a single style object that includes CSS variables from both system and custom dynamic props. A new style object SHALL only be allocated when at least one dynamic value changes.
+
+#### Scenario: Mixed system and custom dynamic props memoized together
+
+- **WHEN** a component has both system dynamic props (e.g., `p`) and custom dynamic props (e.g., `size`) with dynamic values
+- **THEN** a single memoized style object contains CSS variables for both (`--animus-p` and `--animus-size`)
+
+#### Scenario: Custom dynamic prop value unchanged
+
+- **WHEN** a component re-renders with the same custom prop dynamic value
+- **THEN** the existing memoized style object is reused (no new allocation)
+
+### Requirement: System prop value serialization for lookup
+
+The runtime shim SHALL serialize system prop values to string keys for lookup in the shared map. Numeric values SHALL be converted to their string representation. Responsive objects SHALL be serialized to a canonical string format that matches the extraction pipeline's key generation.
+
+#### Scenario: Numeric value lookup key
+
+- **WHEN** component receives `p={8}`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL look up key `"8"` in `systemPropMap.p`
+
+#### Scenario: String value lookup key
+
+- **WHEN** component receives `color="primary"`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL look up key `"primary"` in `systemPropMap.color`
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive value lookup key
+
+- **WHEN** component receives `mt={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }}`
+- **THEN** the runtime SHALL serialize to a canonical key (e.g., `"_:8|sm:16"`) and look up in `systemPropMap.mt`
+
+### Requirement: Smoke test type verification
+
+The smoke test package SHALL include a `tsconfig.json` and a `typecheck` script that runs `tsc --noEmit` to verify source-level type correctness of all component definitions and JSX usage.
+
+#### Scenario: Type checking catches invalid variant
+
+- **WHEN** smoke test source contains `<Button variant="typo">`
+- **THEN** `tsc --noEmit` SHALL report a type error because `"typo"` is not in the variant union
+
+#### Scenario: Type checking passes for valid usage
+
+- **WHEN** smoke test source contains valid builder chains and JSX props
+- **THEN** `tsc --noEmit` SHALL complete with zero errors
+
+#### Scenario: asComponent path is exercised
+
+- **WHEN** the smoke test includes a component defined via `.asComponent(WrappedComponent)`
+- **THEN** the component SHALL extract correctly, forward `className` to the wrapped component, and render in the smoke test app
+
+### Requirement: Custom prop map resolution order
+
+When resolving prop values to CSS classes, the runtime SHALL check sources in this order:
+
+1. `config.customPropMap[propName][valueKey]` (per-component custom props)
+2. `systemPropMap[propName][valueKey]` (shared system props)
+3. `config.customDynamicConfig[propName]` (per-component dynamic fallback)
+4. `dynamicPropConfig[propName]` (shared system dynamic fallback)
+
+The first match wins. This ensures per-component custom prop definitions always override shared system prop behavior.
+
+#### Scenario: Full resolution cascade
+
+- **WHEN** a prop name exists in both `customPropMap` and `systemPropMap` with matching value keys
+- **THEN** the `customPropMap` class is used
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop falls through to dynamic
+
+- **WHEN** a custom prop value is not found in `customPropMap` but `customDynamicConfig` exists for that prop
+- **THEN** the dynamic CSS variable fallback path is used

+## Purpose
+
+The `global-styles-system` capability defines how a design system produces reset-style CSS rules applied globally (outside of component scopes) via a branded factory returned from `createSystem({...}).build()`. Global style blocks are discoverable by the extraction pipeline via `__brand === 'GlobalStyleBlock'` and emit under `@layer anm-global` ahead of component-scoped layers.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Build returns system and globalStyles factory
+
+`createSystem().build()` SHALL return an object with two properties: `system` (the Animus component authoring instance) and `createGlobalStyles` (a factory function for producing global style blocks).
+
+#### Scenario: Destructured build result
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `createSystem().addGroup(...).build()`
+- **THEN** the return value SHALL be `{ system: SystemInstance, createGlobalStyles: GlobalStylesFactory }`
+- **AND** `system` SHALL be an Animus instance with `.styles()`, `.variant()`, and all component chain methods
+- **AND** `createGlobalStyles` SHALL be a function that accepts a selector-to-styles map
+
+#### Scenario: System instance has no global style methods
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer accesses the `system` property from the build result
+- **THEN** the instance SHALL NOT have a `withGlobalStyles` method
+- **AND** the instance SHALL NOT carry any global style configuration
+
+### Requirement: createGlobalStyles produces composable blocks
+
+The `createGlobalStyles` factory SHALL accept a theme-typed selector-to-styles map where values use the same `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>` type as `.styles()`. Selector keys remain unconstrained strings (to admit complex CSS selectors). Selector-body values SHALL support theme-token references (`{colors.*}`, `{space.*}`, scale-token keys), prop shorthand resolved against the surrounding system's prop registry, and CSS literals. Each call produces an independent global style block. Runtime behavior is unchanged — this is a type-layer refinement.
+
+#### Scenario: Single global style block
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `createGlobalStyles({ 'html, body': { bg: 'bg', color: 'text' } })`
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce a global style block with resolved prop shorthand and token values
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple independent blocks
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer calls `createGlobalStyles` multiple times with different selector maps
+- **THEN** each call SHALL produce an independent block
+- **AND** blocks SHALL NOT share state or interfere with each other
+
+#### Scenario: Keyframes in global styles
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer includes `@keyframes` selectors in a global style block
+- **THEN** the factory SHALL support nested keyframe structures (selector → percentages → props)
+- **AND** keyframe values SHALL resolve prop shorthand and token aliases
+
+#### Scenario: Invalid token reference produces a type error
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer writes `createGlobalStyles({ body: { color: '{colors.nonexistent}' } })` with a theme that does not declare `colors.nonexistent`
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL produce a type error at the call site
+
+### Requirement: Global styles factory shares token vocabulary
+
+The `createGlobalStyles` factory SHALL resolve prop shorthand, scale lookups, transforms, and token aliases using the prop registry and transform map from the system build that produced it.
+
+#### Scenario: Prop shorthand resolution
+
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains `{ bg: 'surface', p: 24 }`
+- **THEN** `bg` SHALL resolve to `background-color` via the prop config
+- **AND** `p` SHALL resolve to `padding` with scale lookup via the prop config
+
+#### Scenario: Token alias resolution
+
+- **WHEN** a global style block contains `{ boxShadow: '0 0 8px {colors.primary/40}' }`
+- **THEN** the token alias SHALL resolve to `color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-primary) 40%, transparent)`
+
+#### Scenario: Transform application
+
+- **WHEN** a global style block uses a prop that has a named transform (e.g., `fluidSize`)
+- **THEN** the transform SHALL be applied during resolution
+
+### Requirement: GlobalStyleBlock branding and discovery
+
+Each global style block produced by `createGlobalStyles` SHALL carry a `__brand: 'GlobalStyleBlock'` property for plugin discovery. The block SHALL also expose a `styles` property (the raw selector map) and a `serialize(propConfig, transforms)` method for resolution.
+
+#### Scenario: Block shape
+
+- **WHEN** `createGlobalStyles({ body: { m: 0 } })` is called
+- **THEN** the returned object SHALL have `__brand === 'GlobalStyleBlock'`, `styles`, and `serialize`
+
+#### Scenario: Brand-based discovery
+
+- **WHEN** the Vite plugin loads the system module
+- **THEN** it SHALL iterate named exports and identify global style blocks by checking `val.__brand === 'GlobalStyleBlock'`
+
+### Requirement: Plugin discovers global styles from module exports
+
+The Vite plugin SHALL discover global style blocks from named exports in the system module file, not from `serialize().globalStyles`.
+
+#### Scenario: Export discovery
+
+- **WHEN** the system module exports named variables created by `createGlobalStyles`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL import these exports and resolve them via the existing subprocess pipeline
+
+#### Scenario: No global styles exported
+
+- **WHEN** the system module does not export any global style blocks
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL emit no `@layer global` content
+- **AND** no error or warning SHALL be produced
+
+### Requirement: Global style resolution
+
+Global style objects SHALL be resolved using the same prop config, theme scales, transforms, and token alias logic as component styles. Each prop key SHALL be looked up in the prop config to determine the CSS property name, scale, and transform. Scale values SHALL be resolved against the flattened theme. Transforms SHALL be applied directly (not deferred as placeholders).
+
+#### Scenario: Scale resolution in global styles
+
+- **WHEN** global style has `{ p: 8 }` and theme has `space.8 → "0.5rem"`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS SHALL contain `padding: 0.5rem`
+
+#### Scenario: Color resolution in global styles
+
+- **WHEN** global style has `{ bg: 'background' }` and theme has `colors.background → "var(--color-background)"`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS SHALL contain `background-color: var(--color-background)`
+
+#### Scenario: Transform application in global styles
+
+- **WHEN** global style has `{ border: 1 }` and the `border` prop has a `borderShorthand` transform
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS SHALL contain the transform result (e.g., `border: 1px solid currentColor`) with the transform applied directly, NOT as a `__TRANSFORM__` placeholder
+
+#### Scenario: Pass-through CSS properties
+
+- **WHEN** global style has `{ boxSizing: 'border-box', textDecoration: 'none' }` (no prop config entry)
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS SHALL contain `box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none` (camelCase → kebab-case conversion, no scale lookup)
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-property prop expansion
+
+- **WHEN** global style has `{ px: 16 }` and config maps `px` to `paddingLeft` + `paddingRight`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS SHALL contain both `padding-left: 1rem; padding-right: 1rem`
+
+### Requirement: Global CSS emission in @layer global
+
+All global style blocks SHALL be resolved and emitted together inside `@layer global { }` in the virtual stylesheet. The `@layer` declaration SHALL be `@layer global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom;`.
+
+#### Scenario: Combined emission in @layer global
+
+- **WHEN** the system has one or more global style blocks
+- **THEN** the virtual stylesheet content SHALL be: theme variable CSS, then `@layer global { resolved CSS from all blocks }`, then component CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Complex selectors preserved
+
+- **WHEN** global styles include `'body::after'`, `'::-webkit-scrollbar'`, `'::selection'`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS SHALL use these selectors verbatim within `@layer global`
+
+#### Scenario: No global styles configured
+
+- **WHEN** no global style blocks are exported from the system module
+- **THEN** the virtual stylesheet SHALL contain only theme variables and component CSS (no empty global block)
+
+#### Scenario: @layer declaration includes global
+
+- **WHEN** any extraction produces CSS
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL begin with `@layer global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom;` to establish layer precedence
+
+### Requirement: @keyframes support in global styles
+
+Global style blocks SHALL support `@keyframes` at-rule definitions as top-level keys. Keyframe blocks contain nested selectors (percentage stops) with their own property declarations. Keyframe frame values SHALL resolve prop shorthand and token aliases.
+
+#### Scenario: Keyframe definition in global styles
+
+- **WHEN** global styles include `'@keyframes ember': { '0%, 100%': { textShadow: '...' }, '50%': { textShadow: '...' } }`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS SHALL contain a valid `@keyframes ember { 0%, 100% { text-shadow: ...; } 50% { text-shadow: ...; } }` block inside `@layer global`
+
+#### Scenario: Keyframes coexist with regular selectors
+
+- **WHEN** global styles contain both `@keyframes` definitions and regular CSS selectors
+- **THEN** both SHALL be emitted inside `@layer global` — regular selectors go through full prop resolution, `@keyframes` blocks go through their own resolution path
+
+### Requirement: Global styles resolution via standalone subprocess
+
+Global style resolution SHALL be performed by a standalone script (`resolve-global-styles.ts`) invoked via `bun run`, not by an inline-generated JavaScript string. The script SHALL receive the system module path, theme JSON path, and output file path as CLI arguments.
+
+#### Scenario: Subprocess script invocation
+
+- **WHEN** the Vite plugin resolves global styles at `buildStart`
+- **THEN** it SHALL invoke `resolve-global-styles.ts` as a subprocess, passing the system path and a temporary theme JSON file
+
+#### Scenario: Script resolution via candidate paths
+
+- **WHEN** the plugin searches for `resolve-global-styles.ts`
+- **THEN** it SHALL check `__pluginDir`, `__pluginDir/../src/`, and package.json-resolved paths — same pattern as `resolve-transforms.ts`

+## Headless Composition Specification
+
+### Requirement: asChild composes with ark-ui primitives
+
+Animus ds elements using `asChild` SHALL merge their resolved className onto ark-ui child elements, preserving both Animus extracted styles and ark-ui behavior (ARIA attributes, event handlers, data-state management).
+
+#### Scenario: asChild merges classes onto Ark Tabs trigger
+
+- **WHEN** an Animus ds element renders with `asChild` wrapping an `<Ark.Tabs.Trigger>`
+- **THEN** the rendered DOM element has both the Animus extracted class and ark-ui's ARIA/data attributes
+
+### Requirement: Selector aliases target ark-ui state attributes
+
+Animus selector aliases (`_expanded`, `_checked`, `_disabled`, etc.) SHALL match ark-ui's data-attribute conventions, enabling Animus styles to react to headless state changes.
+
+#### Scenario: \_expanded targets ark-ui expanded state
+
+- **WHEN** an ark-ui accordion item is in expanded state (sets `data-expanded` or `aria-expanded="true"`)
+- **THEN** Animus styles using `_expanded: { ... }` apply to the element
+
+### Requirement: data-state variant key works via class reactivity
+
+When a variant is defined with `prop: 'data-state'`, the runtime SHALL resolve the variant class from the prop value AND pass the `data-state` attribute through to the DOM. Both mechanisms update each React render cycle.
+
+#### Scenario: data-state variant resolves correct class
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `.variant({ prop: 'data-state', variants: { open: {...}, closed: {...} } })` and receives `data-state="open"` as a prop
+- **THEN** the element receives both the class `Component--data-state-open` and the DOM attribute `data-state="open"`
+
+### Requirement: Convenience wrappers hide headless internals
+
+Components using ark-ui internally SHALL maintain their existing consumer-facing props API. ark-ui's concepts (parts, data-state values, internal context) MUST NOT leak through the wrapper.
+
+#### Scenario: TabGroup API unchanged after ark-ui migration
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer renders `<TabGroup tabs={['A','B']} activeTab="A" onChange={fn} />`
+- **THEN** the component accepts and works with the same props as the hand-rolled version
+
+### Requirement: Extraction unaffected by headless composition
+
+The Rust extraction pipeline SHALL continue to produce correct CSS for ds elements that compose with headless primitives via asChild/asComponent. No extraction pipeline changes required.
+
+#### Scenario: Extraction produces correct CSS for asChild component
+
+- **WHEN** extraction processes a file containing `<StyledTab asChild><Ark.Tabs.Trigger>...</Ark.Tabs.Trigger></StyledTab>`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS for StyledTab is identical to what it would produce without asChild

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Transform-time new file detection
+
+In dev mode, when the `transform` hook encounters a file that is NOT in `fileCache`, the plugin SHALL treat it as a new file: compute its content hash, register it in `fileCache`, rebuild the file entries list, and re-run `analyzeProject()` synchronously. If the re-analysis produces manifest entries for the file, the plugin SHALL transform it normally. If no entries are produced, the plugin SHALL return `null`.
+
+#### Scenario: New component file detected and extracted
+
+- **WHEN** a new `.tsx` file containing `ds.styles(...).asElement('div')` is created during dev
+- **AND** another file imports and uses it
+- **AND** the `transform` hook is called for the new file
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL add the file to `fileCache` with its content hash
+- **AND** call `runAnalysis()` with the updated file entries
+- **AND** return the transformed source with `createComponent()` replacement
+
+#### Scenario: New non-component file passes through
+
+- **WHEN** a new `.tsx` file with no builder chains is created during dev
+- **AND** the `transform` hook is called for it
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL add the file to `fileCache`
+- **AND** call `runAnalysis()` with the updated file entries
+- **AND** return `null` (no transformation needed — file has no extractable components)
+
+#### Scenario: Known file without components skips re-analysis
+
+- **WHEN** a file is already in `fileCache` but has no entries in the manifest
+- **AND** the `transform` hook is called for it
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT re-run analysis (the file is known, just not extractable)
+- **AND** return `null`
+
+#### Scenario: Detection fires only once per file
+
+- **WHEN** a new file is detected and registered in `fileCache` during transform
+- **AND** the file is subsequently modified, triggering HMR
+- **THEN** `handleHotUpdate` SHALL process the file normally via the existing content-hash path
+- **AND** the transform hook SHALL NOT trigger new-file detection again (file is now in `fileCache`)
+
+### Requirement: CSS invalidation after new file analysis
+
+After detecting a new file and running re-analysis in the transform hook, the plugin SHALL invalidate the component CSS virtual module (`virtual:animus/components.js`) and send an HMR update to the browser. This ensures the adopted stylesheet includes CSS for the newly extracted component.
+
+#### Scenario: Adopted stylesheet updated after new file extraction
+
+- **WHEN** a new component file is detected and extracted during transform
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL invalidate the `virtual:animus/components.js` module in the module graph
+- **AND** send an HMR update so the browser's adopted stylesheet picks up the new component CSS
+
+#### Scenario: No CSS invalidation for non-component files
+
+- **WHEN** a new file is detected during transform but produces no manifest entries
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT invalidate any virtual modules
+
+### Requirement: New file detection logging
+
+New file detection events SHALL be logged at the standard logging level (not verbose-only). The log message SHALL include the file path and whether extraction produced components.
+
+#### Scenario: Component file detected
+
+- **WHEN** a new file is detected and extraction produces components
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL log: `New file detected: <relativePath> — <N> components extracted`
+
+#### Scenario: Non-component file detected
+
+- **WHEN** a new file is detected but extraction produces no components
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL log: `New file detected: <relativePath> — no components`

+- **WHEN** the host bundler has no `resolve.alias` configured (or it is empty)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL pass an empty alias array
+- **AND** behavior SHALL be identical to current (no aliases resolved)
+
+### Requirement: Alias ordering normalization
+
+The plugin SHALL normalize alias ordering to ensure longest-prefix-first matching regardless of the host's internal ordering.
+
+#### Scenario: Overlapping alias patterns
+
+- **WHEN** the host provides aliases `@admin` and `@admin/components` in any order
+- **THEN** the normalized array SHALL place `@admin/components` before `@admin` (longest prefix first)
+- **AND** the Rust resolver SHALL try entries in array order, returning the first match
+
+### Requirement: NAPI boundary for alias data
+
+The `analyzeProject` NAPI function SHALL accept an optional `path_aliases_json` parameter containing the serialized alias array.
+
+#### Scenario: Parameter shape
+
+- **WHEN** `path_aliases_json` is provided
+- **THEN** it SHALL be a JSON string containing `{ "aliases": [{ "pattern": string, "replacement": string, "type": "prefix" | "exact" }] }`
+- **AND** the Rust side SHALL deserialize and use it in the `resolve_path` closure
+
+#### Scenario: Parameter absent or null
+
+- **WHEN** `path_aliases_json` is `None` or not provided
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL behave identically to current (no alias branch)

+## Icon Convention Specification
+
+### Requirement: Icon imports use lucide-react named imports
+
+Components SHALL import individual icons from `lucide-react` using named imports (e.g., `import { Check, Copy } from 'lucide-react'`).
+
+#### Scenario: CopyButton uses lucide icons
+
+- **WHEN** CopyButton renders in copied state
+- **THEN** it displays the `Check` icon from lucide-react instead of an inline SVG
+
+#### Scenario: CopyButton uses lucide icons in default state
+
+- **WHEN** CopyButton renders in default state
+- **THEN** it displays the `Copy` icon from lucide-react instead of an inline SVG
+
+### Requirement: Icons inherit color from Animus parent
+
+Icons SHALL use `currentColor` for their stroke/fill so that the Animus parent component controls color via token-resolved CSS.
+
+#### Scenario: Icon color follows token
+
+- **WHEN** a lucide icon renders inside an Animus ds element with `color: 'text.dim'`
+- **THEN** the icon inherits the resolved CSS color from the parent element
+
+### Requirement: Icons are implementation details
+
+Icon imports SHALL remain internal to the component file that uses them. Components MUST NOT expose icon selection as a prop or re-export lucide icons.
+
+#### Scenario: CopyButton public API unchanged
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer renders `<CopyButton text="hello" />`
+- **THEN** the component accepts the same props as before the lucide migration with no new required props

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: ES module import parsing
+
+The import resolver SHALL parse ES module import statements from OXC AST to extract binding-to-source mappings. It SHALL handle named imports, default imports, and namespace imports.
+
+#### Scenario: Named import
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Button } from './Button'`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL map binding `Button` in this file to source file `./Button` with export name `Button`
+
+#### Scenario: Renamed import
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Anchor as Link } from '@animus-ui/components'`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL map binding `Link` in this file to export name `Anchor` from `@animus-ui/components`
+
+#### Scenario: Default import
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import Button from './Button'`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL map binding `Button` to the default export of `./Button`
+
+### Requirement: Export parsing
+
+The import resolver SHALL parse export statements to build a map of what each file exports, enabling transitive resolution through barrel files.
+
+#### Scenario: Named re-export
+
+- **WHEN** `index.ts` contains `export { Box } from './elements/Box'`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL record that `index.ts` exports `Box`, sourced from `./elements/Box`
+
+#### Scenario: Direct export
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `export const Box = animus.styles({...}).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL record that this file exports `Box` as a locally-defined binding
+
+### Requirement: Cross-file binding resolution
+
+The import resolver SHALL resolve a binding in one file to its original definition file by following import chains transitively. For non-relative import sources, the resolver SHALL first check path aliases (if provided), then consult the package resolution map to determine the entry file path.
+
+#### Scenario: Direct import resolution
+
+- **WHEN** `App.tsx` imports `Box` from `./elements/Box.tsx` and `Box.tsx` defines `export const Box = animus...`
+- **THEN** resolving binding `Box` in `App.tsx` SHALL yield `{ file: "./elements/Box.tsx", binding: "Box" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Barrel file resolution
+
+- **WHEN** `App.tsx` imports `Box` from `./elements` and `elements/index.ts` re-exports `Box` from `./Box.tsx`
+- **THEN** resolving binding `Box` in `App.tsx` SHALL transitively resolve to `{ file: "./elements/Box.tsx", binding: "Box" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Alias import resolution
+
+- **WHEN** `NavBar.tsx` imports `Button` from `@admin/components/Button` and the alias map contains `{ pattern: "@admin/", replacement: "src/", type: "prefix" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL expand `@admin/components/Button` to `src/components/Button`
+- **AND** probe the known file set for `src/components/Button.tsx` (or `.ts`, `.js`, `.jsx`, `/index.*`)
+- **AND** resolve the binding transitively from that file
+
+#### Scenario: Exact alias resolution
+
+- **WHEN** a file imports from `@config` and the alias map contains `{ pattern: "@config", replacement: "src/config.ts", type: "exact" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL resolve directly to `src/config.ts` without wildcard expansion
+
+#### Scenario: Alias miss falls through to package map
+
+- **WHEN** a non-relative import specifier does not match any alias pattern
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL fall through to the package resolution map
+- **AND** behavior for non-aliased package imports SHALL be unchanged
+
+#### Scenario: Alias expands but no file found
+
+- **WHEN** an alias expands to a path that does not exist in the known file set
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL return None (same as unresolvable)
+- **AND** a debug-level log SHALL indicate the alias expanded but no matching file was found
+
+#### Scenario: Package import resolution via map
+
+- **WHEN** `App.tsx` imports `{ Box } from '@animus-ui/components'` and the package resolution map maps `@animus-ui/components` to `packages/ui/src/index.ts` and that file re-exports `Box` from `./elements/Box.tsx`
+- **THEN** resolving binding `Box` SHALL transitively resolve through the package entry file to `{ file: "packages/ui/src/elements/Box.tsx", binding: "Box" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Package import with rename
+
+- **WHEN** `App.tsx` imports `{ Anchor as Link } from '@animus-ui/components'` and the package entry file exports `Anchor`
+- **THEN** resolving binding `Link` in `App.tsx` SHALL resolve to Anchor's definition, preserving the rename chain
+
+#### Scenario: Unresolvable package
+
+- **WHEN** a binding is imported from a package NOT in the resolution map (e.g., `next/link`)
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL return None — the binding is external

+# includes-driven-discovery
+
+Plugin discovers external packages by tracing `.includes()` calls in the system entry file's builder chain, mapping identifiers back to their import declarations.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### REQ-1: `.includes()` AST tracing
+
+The plugin reads the system entry file and finds `.includes([...])` calls. For each identifier inside the array, it traces back to the corresponding import declaration and extracts the package specifier. Only packages explicitly declared via `.includes()` are discovered.
+
+**Scenarios:**
+
+- WHEN the system file contains `.includes([testDs])` and `import { ds as testDs } from '@animus-ui/test-ds'`
+  THEN `@animus-ui/test-ds` is in the discovered specifier set
+
+- WHEN the system file imports `@animus-ui/system` but does NOT use it in `.includes()`
+  THEN `@animus-ui/system` is NOT in the discovered set
+
+- WHEN the system file contains `.includes([a, b])` with `import { ds as a } from '@ds-a/core'` and `import { ds as b } from '@ds-b/core'`
+  THEN both `@ds-a/core` and `@ds-b/core` are in the discovered set
+
+- WHEN the system file has no `.includes()` call
+  THEN the discovered set is empty — no external packages
+
+### REQ-2: Package resolution to source directory
+
+For each discovered specifier, the plugin resolves it to a package root and targets `src/` for source file discovery. If `src/` does not exist (npm-installed package without source), the plugin falls back to the directory containing the package's dist entry.
+
+**Scenarios:**
+
+- WHEN `@animus-ui/test-ds` is discovered and the resolved package root contains `src/`
+  THEN the plugin walks `src/` for `.ts/.tsx/.js/.jsx` files excluding `.test./.spec./node_modules/dist`
+
+- WHEN `@animus-ui/test-ds` is discovered and the resolved package root does NOT contain `src/`
+  THEN the plugin falls back to walking the directory of the package's main/module entry (e.g., `dist/`)
+
+- WHEN a specifier fails to resolve via the bundler's resolver
+  THEN the plugin silently skips it (no error thrown)
+
+### REQ-3: Module resolution redirect to source
+
+When `src/index.ts` exists for an external package, the plugin redirects the bundler's module resolution so that imports of the package specifier resolve to the source entry instead of the dist entry. This ensures the transform hook/loader processes `.ts` source files (with builder chains) rather than `.mjs` dist files.
+
+**Scenarios:**
+
+- WHEN `@animus-ui/test-ds` has `src/index.ts` and Vite is the bundler
+  THEN the plugin's `resolveId` hook returns the absolute path to `src/index.ts` for the specifier
+
+- WHEN `@animus-ui/test-ds` has `src/index.ts` and webpack/Next.js is the bundler
+  THEN the plugin's `NormalModuleReplacementPlugin` `beforeResolve` hook redirects the specifier to `src/index.ts`
+
+- WHEN `@animus-ui/test-ds` does NOT have `src/` (npm-installed)
+  THEN no redirect occurs — the bundler resolves to the dist entry normally, and the transform/loader filter exempts external packages from extension restrictions
+
+### REQ-4: Transform/loader exemption for external packages
+
+External package files bypass the standard extension filter (`/\.[jt]sx?$/`) and `node_modules` exclusion. The manifest check is the gatekeeper — if a file has manifest entries, it is transformed regardless of extension or location.
+
+**Scenarios:**
+
+- WHEN `@animus-ui/test-ds/dist/index.mjs` is in the manifest (npm-installed, no src/)
+  THEN the Vite transform hook processes it despite `.mjs` extension and `node_modules` path
+
+- WHEN `@animus-ui/test-ds/src/components/Button.tsx` is in the manifest (workspace-linked)
+  THEN the Vite transform hook and webpack loader process it normally
+
+- WHEN a random `node_modules/lodash/index.js` file is encountered
+  THEN it is NOT in any external package directory and is skipped by the standard `node_modules` guard
+
+### REQ-5: Discovery scoped to system file only
+
+The plugin does NOT scan all source files for import specifiers. Package discovery reads only the system entry file's `.includes()` calls.
+
+**Scenarios:**
+
+- WHEN a component file imports from `@animus-ui/test-ds` but ds.ts does NOT use `.includes([testDs])`
+  THEN the package is NOT discovered (consumer must add `.includes()`)
+
+### REQ-6: Plugin parity
+
+Both vite-plugin and next-webpack-plugin use the same discovery mechanism (`extractSystemFilePackages()`), the same src/dist resolution strategy, and the same transform/loader exemption pattern.

+### Requirement: Per-file extraction cache
+
+The Rust crate SHALL maintain a persistent in-memory cache of per-file extraction results between `analyzeProject()` calls. The cache key SHALL be the tuple `(file_path, content_hash)`. When a file's content hash matches its cached entry, the cached extraction results (FileModuleInfo, ChainDescriptors, ComponentCss) SHALL be reused without re-parsing via OXC.
+
+#### Scenario: Unchanged file reuses cache
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with a file entry whose `hash` field matches the cached hash for that path
+- **THEN** the file's source is NOT re-parsed via OXC, and cached FileModuleInfo, ChainDescriptors, and ComponentCss are used for subsequent analysis phases
+
+#### Scenario: Changed file invalidates cache
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with a file entry whose `hash` field differs from the cached hash (or no cache exists for that path)
+- **THEN** the file is re-parsed via OXC, new extraction results replace the cached entry, and the new results are used for subsequent analysis phases
+
+#### Scenario: Removed file evicts cache
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called without a file entry that existed in a previous call's cache
+- **THEN** the cached entry for that file path is evicted
+
+#### Scenario: No hash provided (backward compatibility)
+
+- **WHEN** a file entry has no `hash` field (or `hash` is null)
+- **THEN** the file is always re-parsed, and no cache lookup or update occurs for that entry
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: Cached entries populate the evaluated working map
+
+When a file's extraction results are served from cache, the cached evaluation entries (ComponentCss, ComponentReplacement, active props, prop config) SHALL be inserted into the `evaluated` working HashMap used by downstream phases. Extension merging, system_props population, and manifest generation SHALL operate on cached entries identically to freshly-processed entries.
+
+#### Scenario: Extension chain with cached parent
+
+- **WHEN** parent component `Anchor` is unchanged (cache hit) and child component `NavLink` is changed (cache miss)
+- **THEN** `Anchor`'s cached evaluation entry is in `evaluated`, and `NavLink`'s merge phase reads `Anchor`'s cached ComponentCss for merging — producing correct merged CSS
+
+#### Scenario: System props on cached component
+
+- **WHEN** component `Button` is unchanged (cache hit) and has active system props from JSX usage
+- **THEN** `Button`'s cached ComponentReplacement is in `evaluated`, and Phase 5c populates system_props correctly on the cached entry
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: Cache stores owned data types
+
+Cached extraction results SHALL use owned Rust types (String, Vec, HashMap) that are independent of OXC arena allocators. The cache SHALL NOT hold references to arena-allocated AST nodes. Arena allocators SHALL drop normally after parsing completes.
+
+#### Scenario: Arena drops after cached extraction
+
+- **WHEN** a file is parsed and its extraction results are cached
+- **THEN** the OXC `Allocator` used for parsing that file is dropped after extraction completes, and cached data remains valid and accessible
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: ComponentCss equality comparison
+
+ComponentCss and its nested types SHALL implement `PartialEq` to enable structural comparison between cached and freshly-extracted results. When a re-parsed file produces ComponentCss identical to the cached version, CSS regeneration MAY be skipped for that file's contribution.
+
+#### Scenario: Style-unchanged file detected
+
+- **WHEN** a file is re-parsed (content hash changed) but its ComponentCss results are structurally equal to the cached ComponentCss
+- **THEN** the system detects this as a "styles unchanged" condition (early-exit Layer 1)
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: Cache cleared on geological reset
+
+When a geological reset occurs (theme, config, or system file change), the entire per-file cache SHALL be cleared, forcing full re-parsing of all files on the next `analyzeProject()` call.
+
+#### Scenario: Theme change clears cache
+
+- **WHEN** the theme, config, or system file changes triggering a geological reset
+- **THEN** the per-file extraction cache is fully cleared before the next analysis

+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Zero-cost timer gate
+
+The plugin SHALL provide `now()` and `elapsed()` timing helpers that return real `performance.now()` values when verbose mode is active and return `0` when verbose mode is inactive. This ensures zero measurement overhead in production builds.
+
+#### Scenario: Verbose mode active
+
+- **WHEN** `verbose: true` or `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1` is set
+- **THEN** `now()` SHALL return `performance.now()` and `elapsed(start)` SHALL return the rounded millisecond difference
+
+#### Scenario: Verbose mode inactive
+
+- **WHEN** verbose is false and `ANIMUS_DEBUG` is not set
+- **THEN** `now()` SHALL return `0` and `elapsed(start)` SHALL return `0` — no `performance.now()` calls occur
+
+### Requirement: buildStart full phase timing
+
+The vite-plugin SHALL measure every distinct operation in `buildStart` using the timer gate. Each phase SHALL be collected into a timing record for display and optional JSON output.
+
+#### Scenario: All buildStart phases timed
+
+- **WHEN** `buildStart` executes with verbose mode active
+- **THEN** the following phases SHALL each have independent timing: system-load, file-discovery, file-read+hash, package-resolve, analysis (decomposed into json-serialize + rust-extract + json-parse), lightning-css, and total
+
+#### Scenario: Analysis decomposition
+
+- **WHEN** `runAnalysis()` executes
+- **THEN** the timing SHALL separately report: duration of `JSON.stringify(fileEntries)` (json-serialize), duration of the `analyzeProject()` NAPI call (rust-extract), and duration of `JSON.parse(manifestJson)` (json-parse)
+
+### Requirement: Aggregate per-file transform timing
+
+The plugin SHALL collect timing for each `transformFile()` NAPI call and report aggregate statistics.
+
+#### Scenario: Transform stats after build
+
+- **WHEN** a production build completes and verbose mode is active
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL report total transform time, file count, minimum per-file time, maximum per-file time, and average per-file time
+
+#### Scenario: Transform stats reset per cycle
+
+- **WHEN** an HMR update triggers in dev mode
+- **THEN** the transform aggregate stats SHALL report only the transforms executed in that HMR cycle, not cumulative across all cycles
+
+### Requirement: Lightning CSS timing
+
+The plugin SHALL time `postProcessCss()` calls in the load hook.
+
+#### Scenario: CSS post-processing timed
+
+- **WHEN** a virtual module is loaded and CSS post-processing (autoprefixing, minification) executes
+- **THEN** the duration SHALL be captured and included in the buildStart waterfall as the `lightning-css` phase
+
+### Requirement: Structured JSON timing output
+
+When `ANIMUS_TIMING_JSON=1` is set, the plugin SHALL emit a single JSON line containing the complete timing tree after the human-readable waterfall.
+
+#### Scenario: JSON output emitted
+
+- **WHEN** `ANIMUS_TIMING_JSON=1` is set and verbose mode is active
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL emit a line prefixed with `[animus:timing]` containing a flat JSON object with dot-notation hierarchical keys merging JS phases and Rust `PipelineTiming` phases
+
+#### Scenario: JSON not emitted without env var
+
+- **WHEN** `ANIMUS_TIMING_JSON` is not set
+- **THEN** no JSON timing line SHALL be emitted — only the human-readable waterfall (if verbose)

+## Purpose
+
+Defines the JSX scanner pass within the extraction pipeline: how it recognizes ds-built component callsites in JSX (and MDX-derived JSX) source, how it collects system prop, custom prop, variant, and state usages from those callsites, and how it records component-render presence for downstream consumption by the reconciler.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Import alias resolution before JSX scanning
+
+The project analyzer SHALL resolve import aliases for each file before passing component prop maps to the JSX scanner. When a file imports a component under a different local name (`import { Button as TestDsButton }`), the scanner SHALL match `<TestDsButton>` against `Button`'s active system props, custom props, and usage configs.
+
+#### Scenario: Renamed import with system props
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Button as Btn } from './components'` and `<Btn px={8} />`, and `Button` has active group `{ space: true }`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect `{ px: 8 }` as a system prop usage — resolving `Btn` → `Button`'s active props
+
+#### Scenario: Renamed import from external package
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Button as TestDsButton } from '@my-ds/components'` and `<TestDsButton px={16} py={8} />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect `{ px: 16, py: 8 }` as system prop usages for the `Button` component
+
+#### Scenario: Renamed import with variant props
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Button as Btn } from './components'` and `<Btn variant="primary" />`, and `Button` has variant prop `variant`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect the variant usage `{ component: "Button", variant_prop: "variant", value: "primary" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Renamed import with custom props
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Card as MyCard } from './components'` and `<MyCard size="sm" />`, and `Card` has custom prop `size`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect a static custom prop usage for `Card`'s `size` prop
+
+#### Scenario: No rename — zero cost
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Button } from './components'` (no alias)
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL use the original maps without cloning or augmentation
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple renamed imports in one file
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `import { Button as Btn, Card as MyCard } from './components'` and uses both as JSX elements with system props
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL resolve both aliases and collect system prop usages for both components
+
+#### Scenario: Alias collides with existing binding
+
+- **WHEN** a file aliases `import { IconButton as Button }` and `Button` is ALSO a definition binding for a different component
+- **THEN** the augmented map SHALL contain the union of both components' active props for the `Button` key — the scanner collects usages for any matching attribute names
+
+### Requirement: JSX element scanning
+
+The JSX scanner SHALL walk all JSX elements in a source file and match element tags against component bindings that have active groups from chain walking. For each matching element, it SHALL collect JSX attributes whose names match active group prop names. The component prop maps passed to the scanner SHALL include import alias entries so that renamed imports resolve to their original component's active props.
+
+#### Scenario: Match Box with system props
+
+- **WHEN** chain walking produces a binding `Box` with active groups `{ space: true, layout: true }` and the file contains `<Box p={8} mt={16} display="flex" />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect `{ p: 8, mt: 16, display: "flex" }` as system prop usages for the `Box` binding
+
+#### Scenario: No match for non-group props
+
+- **WHEN** chain walking produces a binding `Button` with active groups `{ space: true }` and the file contains `<Button variant="fill" p={8} />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect `{ p: 8 }` only — `variant` is not a group prop and SHALL be ignored by the scanner
+
+#### Scenario: Non-extracted component ignored
+
+- **WHEN** the file contains `<SomeComponent p={8} />` but `SomeComponent` is not a binding from chain walking and not an import alias for any extracted component
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL not collect any system props from that element
+
+#### Scenario: Same component used multiple times
+
+- **WHEN** the file contains `<Box p={8} />` and `<Box p={16} mt={8} />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect all unique (prop, value) pairs: `{ p: 8 }, { p: 16 }, { mt: 8 }`
+
+### Requirement: Static value evaluation
+
+The JSX scanner SHALL evaluate JSX attribute values that are static literals (numbers, strings) or static responsive objects (object expressions with only breakpoint keys and literal values). For attributes with dynamic values (identifiers, call expressions, conditional expressions, or any non-literal AST node), it SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage record instead of skipping silently.
+
+#### Scenario: Numeric literal
+
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `p={8}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL evaluate the value as the number `8` (static usage — unchanged)
+
+#### Scenario: String literal
+
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `display="flex"` or `display={"flex"}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL evaluate the value as the string `"flex"` (static usage — unchanged)
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive object with \_ key
+
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `mt={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL evaluate the value as a responsive object `{ _: 8, sm: 16 }` (static usage — unchanged)
+
+#### Scenario: Identifier reference detected as dynamic
+
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `p={spacing}` where `spacing` is an identifier
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage `(prop_name: "p", binding: "Box")` — NOT skip silently
+
+#### Scenario: Skip spread attribute
+
+- **WHEN** a JSX element has `{...props}` spread
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL skip the spread — spreads are neither static nor dynamic (unchanged)
+
+#### Scenario: Function call detected as dynamic
+
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `p={getSpacing()}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage `(prop_name: "p", binding: "Box")`
+
+#### Scenario: Conditional expression detected as dynamic
+
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `display={isOpen ? 'block' : 'none'}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage `(prop_name: "display", binding: "Box")`
+
+#### Scenario: Member expression detected as dynamic
+
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `p={theme.spacing.large}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage `(prop_name: "p", binding: "Box")`
+
+#### Scenario: Template literal with expressions detected as dynamic
+
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is ``p={`${size}px`}``
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage `(prop_name: "p", binding: "Box")`
+
+#### Scenario: Template literal without expressions is static
+
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is ``display={`flex`}``
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL evaluate the value as the string `"flex"` (static — no expression interpolation)
+
+#### Scenario: Binary expression detected as dynamic
+
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `p={baseSize + 4}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage `(prop_name: "p", binding: "Box")`
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive object with any dynamic value detected as dynamic
+
+- **WHEN** a JSX attribute is `mt={{ _: spacing, sm: 16 }}`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL emit a dynamic prop usage for `mt` — the entire responsive object is treated as dynamic if any value is non-static
+
+### Requirement: Output structure
+
+The scanner SHALL produce deduplicated output containing:
+
+- **Static system prop usages**: `(prop_name, value, component_binding)` tuples — global, shared across all components
+- **Dynamic system prop usages**: `(prop_name, component_binding)` tuples — global, deduplicated by prop_name
+- **Static custom prop usages**: `(prop_name, value, component_binding)` tuples — per-component, scoped to the defining component
+- **Dynamic custom prop usages**: `(prop_name, component_binding)` tuples — per-component, scoped to the defining component
+- Variant value activations per component
+- State activations per component
+- Set of rendered component bindings
+
+Custom prop usages SHALL be tracked separately from system prop usages. A custom prop is identified by membership in the component's `custom_prop_configs` — it appears in the custom props scan output, not the system props scan output.
+
+Dynamic deduplication for custom props SHALL be scoped per-component: if component A and component B both define a `size` custom prop, their dynamic usages are tracked independently.
+
+#### Scenario: System prop static output
+
+- **WHEN** `<Box p={8} />` is scanned and `p` is a system prop
+- **THEN** a static system prop usage `("p", "8", "Box")` is emitted
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop static output
+
+- **WHEN** `<Card size="sm" />` is scanned and `size` is a custom prop on Card
+- **THEN** a static custom prop usage `("size", "sm", "Card")` is emitted
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop dynamic output
+
+- **WHEN** `<Card size={someVar} />` is scanned and `size` is a custom prop on Card
+- **THEN** a dynamic custom prop usage `("size", "Card")` is emitted
+
+#### Scenario: Same prop name on different components
+
+- **WHEN** `<Card size="sm" />` and `<Button size={3} />` both use `size` as a custom prop
+- **THEN** separate custom prop usages are emitted for each component binding
+
+#### Scenario: Mixed system and custom prop on same element
+
+- **WHEN** `<Card p={8} size="sm" />` where `p` is a system prop and `size` is a custom prop
+- **THEN** `p` appears in system prop output and `size` appears in custom prop output
+
+### Requirement: Variant value collection at JSX callsites
+
+The JSX scanner SHALL collect variant prop values from JSX attributes when the attribute name matches a known variant prop for the matched component. It SHALL handle string literals, JSX string values, and dynamic expressions.
+
+#### Scenario: Static variant value
+
+- **WHEN** component `Button` has variant prop `variant` and a callsite has `<Button variant="stroke" />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect `{ component: "Button", variant_prop: "variant", value: "stroke" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic variant value
+
+- **WHEN** a callsite has `<Button variant={selectedVariant} />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect `{ component: "Button", variant_prop: "variant", value: "__dynamic__" }` indicating all options should be transacted IN
+
+#### Scenario: Variant prop absent
+
+- **WHEN** a callsite has `<Button />` and Button has variant prop `variant` with `defaultVariant: "fill"`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect `{ component: "Button", variant_prop: "variant", value: "__default__" }` indicating the default option is implicitly used
+
+### Requirement: State activation collection at JSX callsites
+
+The JSX scanner SHALL collect state prop activations from JSX attributes when the attribute name matches a known state name for the matched component.
+
+#### Scenario: Static boolean state
+
+- **WHEN** component `Layout` has state `sidebar` and a callsite has `<Layout sidebar />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect `{ component: "Layout", state: "sidebar" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic boolean state
+
+- **WHEN** a callsite has `<Layout loading={isLoading} />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL collect `{ component: "Layout", state: "loading" }` — presence means used regardless of value
+
+#### Scenario: State prop not present
+
+- **WHEN** no callsite passes `loading` to `Layout`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL NOT collect any `loading` state usage for `Layout`
+
+### Requirement: Component render tracking at JSX callsites
+
+The JSX scanner SHALL record which component bindings are rendered in a file. A component is considered rendered when it appears in any of the following forms:
+
+- As a JSX element tag (`<GridBox />` or `<GridBox>...</GridBox>`)
+- As a JSX member-expression tag (`<DrawerSlots.Overlay />`)
+- As the first argument of a `React.createElement(...)` or `createElement(...)` CallExpression, where the first argument is a bare identifier (`createElement(CloseButton, ...)`) or a member expression (`createElement(DrawerSlots.Overlay, ...)`)
+
+String literals as the first argument of `createElement(...)` (native DOM tags) SHALL NOT be recorded. Non-literal, non-identifier, non-member-expression first arguments (e.g. call expressions) SHALL NOT be recorded — they resolve to dynamic components the scanner cannot attribute to a known binding.
+
+#### Scenario: Component used as JSX element
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `<GridBox>...</GridBox>`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL record `GridBox` as a rendered component
+
+#### Scenario: Component used as JSX member expression
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `<DrawerSlots.Overlay />`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL record `DrawerSlots.Overlay` as a rendered component
+
+#### Scenario: Component imported but not rendered
+
+- **WHEN** a file imports `GridBox` but never uses it as a JSX element nor passes it to `createElement`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL NOT record `GridBox` as rendered
+
+#### Scenario: Component rendered via createElement with bare identifier
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `createElement(CloseButton, { onClick })` or `React.createElement(CloseButton, props, children)`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL record `CloseButton` as a rendered component
+
+#### Scenario: Component rendered via createElement with member expression
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `createElement(DrawerSlots.Overlay, props, children)`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL record `DrawerSlots.Overlay` as a rendered component — identical attribution to the JSX member-expression form
+
+#### Scenario: createElement with native DOM tag string literal
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `createElement('div', props, children)`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL NOT record any component binding — string literals are native DOM elements, not ds-built components
+
+#### Scenario: createElement with dynamic first argument
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `createElement(getComponent(), props)` or `createElement(condition ? A : B, props)`
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL NOT record any component binding — call expressions and conditional expressions resolve to dynamic components the scanner cannot attribute
+
+### Requirement: Per-component custom prop dynamic detection
+
+The scanner SHALL detect dynamic usage of custom props using the same detection rules as system props: identifier references, call expressions, conditional expressions, member expressions, template literals with expressions, and binary expressions.
+
+Custom prop dynamic detection SHALL be scoped to the component that defines the custom prop. The scanner uses the `global_custom_props` map (binding → set of custom prop names) to determine which props are custom for each component.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop identifier detected as dynamic
+
+- **WHEN** `<Card size={mySize} />` is scanned and `size` is a custom prop on Card
+- **THEN** a dynamic custom prop usage is recorded for Card's `size` prop
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop conditional detected as dynamic
+
+- **WHEN** `<Card size={isLarge ? "lg" : "sm"} />` is scanned
+- **THEN** a dynamic custom prop usage is recorded (conditional = dynamic, even with literal branches)
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop static value not marked dynamic
+
+- **WHEN** `<Card size="sm" />` is scanned with a string literal value
+- **THEN** only a static custom prop usage is recorded, no dynamic usage
+
+### Requirement: Scanner input set includes MDX-derived JSX regions
+
+The JSX scanner's input SHALL include JSX regions extracted from `.mdx` source files. Bundler adapters (`vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`) are responsible for pre-processing MDX files into scanner-consumable JSX form BEFORE the scanner runs; the scanner's own JSX-recognition contract (JSX element tags, member-expression tags, `createElement(...)` CallExpressions per prior-arc Phase 1) applies unchanged to MDX-derived input.
+
+Concretely: a ds-built component rendered via `<Component>` or `<Namespace.Member>` or `createElement(Component, ...)` inside an MDX file's JSX region SHALL be recorded in the usage ledger the same way as an identical render in a `.tsx` file. The reconciler SHALL NOT distinguish between MDX-sourced and TSX-sourced renderings when deciding elimination.
+
+#### Scenario: Component used only from MDX is recognized as rendered
+
+- **WHEN** a ds-built component is exported from a `.tsx` module and its only call sites are `<Component>` JSX tags inside `.mdx` files
+- **THEN** the scanner's usage ledger SHALL list the component as rendered, and the reconciler SHALL NOT eliminate it in production builds (`dev_mode=false`)
+
+#### Scenario: Dev-mode prospective entry SHALL NOT fire for MDX-rendered components
+
+- **WHEN** a component is rendered only from `.mdx` and `dev_mode=true`
+- **THEN** the manifest's `report.eliminated_details` SHALL NOT include a `kind: "prospective_component"` entry for that component — MDX renderings are first-class and should not trigger prospective-elimination warnings
+
+#### Scenario: Component rendered via `createElement` from MDX is recognized
+
+- **WHEN** a component is rendered via `createElement(Component, ...)` inside an MDX file's JSX region (e.g. in a code block or expression slot that compiles to a CallExpression)
+- **THEN** the scanner SHALL record the rendering per the prior-arc Phase 1 createElement-recognition contract, producing the same usage ledger entry as an identical `.tsx` source
+
+#### Scenario: Component rendered via both TSX and MDX resolves to a single ledger entry
+
+- **WHEN** a component is rendered from both `.tsx` and `.mdx` sources
+- **THEN** the scanner's usage ledger SHALL deduplicate the rendering records per the existing ledger's de-dup semantics — MDX and TSX sources combine, not accumulate separately

+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Vite delivers layer declaration via HTML style tag
+
+The Vite plugin SHALL inject the `@layer` ordering declaration into the HTML document head as a `<style>` tag, bypassing all CSS processing pipelines (both the plugin's Lightning CSS pass and Vite's internal esbuild minification).
+
+#### Scenario: Declaration injected as first head child
+
+- **WHEN** the Vite plugin's `transformIndexHtml` hook fires (dev page load or prod build)
+- **THEN** it SHALL return an `HtmlTagDescriptor` with `tag: 'style'`, `injectTo: 'head-prepend'`, and `order: 'pre'`
+- **AND** the `<style>` tag children SHALL contain the full `@layer` declaration (e.g., `@layer anm-global, anm-base, anm-variants, anm-compounds, anm-states, anm-system, anm-custom;`)
+- **AND** the declaration SHALL reflect custom layers if configured via the plugin `layers` option
+
+#### Scenario: Declaration absent from CSS virtual module
+
+- **WHEN** the virtual module `virtual:animus/styles.css` is loaded (dev or prod)
+- **THEN** the returned CSS SHALL NOT contain the `@layer` ordering declaration
+- **AND** the CSS SHALL begin with variable CSS (`:root` blocks) followed by processed body content
+
+#### Scenario: Declaration survives Vite prod build
+
+- **WHEN** a Vite prod build completes
+- **THEN** `dist/index.html` SHALL contain a `<style>` tag in `<head>` with the `@layer` declaration
+- **AND** the declaration SHALL appear before any `<link>` stylesheet references
+
+#### Scenario: Declaration stable across HMR
+
+- **WHEN** a file change triggers HMR in Vite dev mode
+- **THEN** the `@layer` declaration in the HTML `<style>` tag SHALL remain unchanged
+- **AND** `transformIndexHtml` does not fire on HMR (only on page load), which is correct because the declaration is config-time and static
+
+### Requirement: Next.js delivers layer declaration inline in CSS
+
+The Next.js plugin SHALL continue delivering the `@layer` declaration as part of the assembled CSS string. Next.js's CSS pipeline (webpack + built-in processing) does not strip `@layer` declarations, so no HTML injection is needed.
+
+#### Scenario: Next.js CSS contains declaration
+
+- **WHEN** the Next.js plugin assembles the full CSS via `assembleStylesheet({ split: true })`
+- **THEN** the CSS written to `.animus/styles.css` SHALL contain the `@layer` declaration followed by variables followed by body
+- **AND** the declaration SHALL survive Next.js's CSS processing intact

+## Purpose
+
+Defines the repository's `legacy/` directory convention: a top-level sibling to `packages/` that holds packages previously part of the active development surface but no longer included in the publish graph or the active workspace. This capability separates "on-disk code" from "publishable code" structurally, lowers grep/LLM cognitive load during repo exploration, and enforces a one-way independence rule between active and legacy code. Legacy packages remain browsable and readable — preserved via `git mv` with history intact — but do not install, build, link, or publish.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Legacy Directory Location
+
+The repository SHALL contain a `legacy/` directory at the repository root, sibling to `packages/`. The `legacy/` directory SHALL hold packages that were previously part of the active development surface but are no longer included in the publish graph or the active workspace.
+
+#### Scenario: Legacy directory is a top-level sibling
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer lists the repository root
+- **THEN** `legacy/` appears as a top-level directory alongside `packages/`, `e2e/` (when present), `scripts/`, `openspec/`
+
+#### Scenario: Archived packages reside under legacy
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer locates archived packages (core, theming, ui, \_docs, runtime)
+- **THEN** they are found under `legacy/<name>/`, not `packages/<name>/` or any other location
+
+### Requirement: Initial Legacy Cluster
+
+The following five packages SHALL reside under `legacy/` after this change:
+
+- `legacy/core/` (previously `packages/core/`, published as `@animus-ui/core`)
+- `legacy/theming/` (previously `packages/theming/`, published as `@animus-ui/theming`)
+- `legacy/ui/` (previously `packages/ui/`, published as `@animus-ui/components`)
+- `legacy/_docs/` (previously `packages/_docs/`)
+- `legacy/runtime/` (previously `packages/runtime/`, published as `@animus-ui/runtime`)
+
+Moves SHALL use `git mv` to preserve history as renames.
+
+#### Scenario: Each legacy package is present post-move
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer navigates to the repository root after this change is applied
+- **THEN** each of the five listed packages is present under `legacy/`
+- **AND** none of the five is present under `packages/`
+
+#### Scenario: Git history is preserved
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer runs `git log --follow legacy/core/src/<file>`
+- **THEN** the history includes commits from when the file was located at `packages/core/src/<file>`
+
+### Requirement: Legacy Packages Are Not in the Workspace Graph
+
+No package under `legacy/` SHALL be present in the root `package.json` `workspaces` array. `bun install` SHALL NOT resolve, symlink, or install dependencies for any package under `legacy/`.
+
+#### Scenario: Legacy packages are absent from workspaces
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the root `package.json` `workspaces` array
+- **THEN** no entry references a path beginning with `legacy/`
+- **AND** no entry references the five archived package names
+
+#### Scenario: Clean install skips legacy
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun install` from a clean state
+- **THEN** no symlinks are created for packages under `legacy/`
+- **AND** `node_modules/@animus-ui/core` (and similar for the archived five) does not resolve to a workspace package
+
+### Requirement: Legacy Packages Are Private
+
+Every package under `legacy/` SHALL have `private: true` in its `package.json`. No package under `legacy/` SHALL have a `publishConfig` field granting publish access.
+
+#### Scenario: Privacy flag present
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the `package.json` of any package under `legacy/`
+- **THEN** the file contains `"private": true`
+
+#### Scenario: No publish config
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the `package.json` of any package under `legacy/`
+- **THEN** the file does NOT contain a `publishConfig` field with `access: public`
+
+### Requirement: One-Way Independence Rule
+
+No package under `packages/` or (once present) `e2e/` SHALL import from any package under `legacy/`. Legacy packages MAY import from each other; they MUST NOT be imported by active code.
+
+#### Scenario: Active packages do not import legacy
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer greps `@animus-ui/(core|theming|components|docs|runtime)` across `packages/**` and `e2e/**` source files
+- **THEN** no production source file (excluding generated dist, node_modules, archived openspec content, and Rust string-literal test fixtures) contains such an import
+
+#### Scenario: CI or lint enforcement
+
+- **WHEN** a future change enforces the one-way independence rule in CI
+- **THEN** the enforcement MAY be implemented as a grep check, an ESLint rule, or equivalent
+- **AND** it MUST fail the build if a `packages/*` or `e2e/*` source file imports from `@animus-ui/<legacy-package>`
+
+### Requirement: Root CLAUDE.md Documents Legacy Convention
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL contain a `## Legacy Packages` (or equivalent) section that states:
+
+- `legacy/` exists as a sibling to `packages/`
+- Packages in `legacy/` are preserved for reference, not for runtime use
+- The one-way independence rule
+- Which packages currently reside in `legacy/`
+
+#### Scenario: Agent reads the legacy convention
+
+- **WHEN** an agent loads root `CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** a section documents the `legacy/` directory and its semantics
+- **AND** the agent can distinguish active packages from legacy without additional lookup
+
+### Requirement: No Compatibility Aliases
+
+No symlink, path alias, or module resolver rule SHALL redirect references like `packages/core` to `legacy/core`. Any remaining import of an archived package SHALL fail with a normal module-not-found error.
+
+#### Scenario: Import of archived package fails cleanly
+
+- **WHEN** source code imports `@animus-ui/core` (or any other archived package name) from a non-legacy file
+- **THEN** the import fails with a standard module-resolution error
+- **AND** no silent redirect occurs

+## Live Preview Specification
+
+### Requirement: Preview area displays dot grid background
+
+The preview pane of LivePreview SHALL render a dot grid canvas background using `radial-gradient` with `{colors.text.dim/8}` at 20px spacing.
+
+#### Scenario: Preview tab active
+
+- **WHEN** the preview tab is selected
+- **THEN** the preview content area displays a subtle dot grid pattern behind the rendered component
+
+#### Scenario: Code tab active
+
+- **WHEN** the code tab is selected
+- **THEN** no dot grid is visible — only the code block renders
+
+### Requirement: Variant controls toolbar
+
+LivePreview SHALL accept an optional `variants` prop (`Record<string, string[]>`) that renders a segmented control toolbar for switching between variant values.
+
+#### Scenario: Single variant axis
+
+- **WHEN** LivePreview renders with `variants={{ size: ['sm', 'md', 'lg'] }}`
+- **THEN** a segmented control with "sm", "md", "lg" buttons appears in the toolbar, defaulting to the first value
+
+#### Scenario: Variant selection updates preview
+
+- **WHEN** user clicks a variant option in the segmented control
+- **THEN** the selected value is passed to the preview children and the rendered component updates
+
+#### Scenario: No variants prop
+
+- **WHEN** LivePreview renders without a `variants` prop
+- **THEN** no segmented control appears — only the preview/code tabs render
+
+### Requirement: LivePreview wraps Ark Tabs
+
+LivePreview SHALL use Ark Tabs (via TabGroup or directly) for preview/code tab switching, inheriting keyboard navigation and ARIA semantics.
+
+#### Scenario: Tab switching
+
+- **WHEN** user clicks "code" tab
+- **THEN** the preview content is replaced by a SyntaxBlock showing the example code

+## Purpose
+
+The `_integration` test suite SHALL include assertions validating the structural shape of the `UniverseManifest` returned by `analyzeProject()`. These assertions protect the NAPI manifest contract against silent field drift: fragments, provenance, dynamic-prop metadata, and system-prop maps must all remain internally consistent with the `components` registry.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Manifest shape assertions
+
+The `_integration` test suite SHALL include assertions that validate the structural shape of the `UniverseManifest` returned by `analyzeProject()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Components have required fields
+
+- **WHEN** the manifest is inspected
+- **THEN** every entry in `components` SHALL have non-empty: `file`, `binding`, `class_name`, `replacement`, `terminal`, `tag`
+
+#### Scenario: Files mapping is consistent
+
+- **WHEN** the manifest is inspected
+- **THEN** every component_id referenced in `files` values SHALL exist as a key in `components`
+
+### Requirement: Provenance reciprocity
+
+The manifest's provenance and reverse_provenance fields SHALL be reciprocally consistent.
+
+#### Scenario: Reverse provenance matches provenance
+
+- **WHEN** a component A appears in `reverse_provenance[B]` (B is parent, A is child)
+- **THEN** component A's `extends_from` field SHALL equal B's component_id
+
+#### Scenario: Extension chains are complete
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `extends_from` set to a parent_id
+- **THEN** the parent_id SHALL exist in `components`
+- **AND** the component's id SHALL appear in `reverse_provenance[parent_id]`
+
+### Requirement: Fragment coverage
+
+The manifest's `component_fragments` SHALL be consistent with `components`.
+
+#### Scenario: Fragments exist for extracted components
+
+- **WHEN** a component in `components` has extractable CSS (not fully bailed)
+- **THEN** a corresponding entry SHALL exist in `component_fragments` with at least one non-empty layer (base, variants, compounds, or states)
+
+#### Scenario: No orphan fragments
+
+- **WHEN** `component_fragments` is inspected
+- **THEN** every key SHALL correspond to a component_id that exists in `components`
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic props correctness
+
+The manifest's `dynamic_props` SHALL only contain props with detected non-static usage.
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic prop has required metadata
+
+- **WHEN** a prop appears in `dynamic_props`
+- **THEN** it SHALL have non-empty `var_name`, `slot_class`, and `property` fields
+
+#### Scenario: Static-only component has no dynamic props
+
+- **WHEN** a fixture component uses only static string literal values for all props
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL have zero entries in `dynamic_props` for that component's prop names
+
+### Requirement: System prop map population
+
+The manifest's `system_prop_map` SHALL contain entries for system props used across all extracted components.
+
+#### Scenario: Used system props are mapped
+
+- **WHEN** any extracted component's JSX usage includes system props (e.g., `p={4}`)
+- **THEN** `system_prop_map` SHALL contain an entry for that prop with the used value mapping to a class name
+
+#### Scenario: System prop class names use correct prefix
+
+- **WHEN** `system_prop_map` entries are inspected
+- **THEN** all class name values SHALL start with `animus-u-` (the Animus utility-class prefix; `anm-` in the integration-test-infrastructure proposal was stale from the layer-prefix rename in session 60 — the class prefix is distinct from the layer prefix)

+## Markdown Renderer Specification
+
+### Overview
+
+A component mapping and rendering layer that renders markdown elements through the Animus showcase component library via MDX compilation. Handles headings, prose, inline code, fenced code blocks with syntax highlighting, code block input/output pairing, lists, links, blockquotes, horizontal rules, and emphasis.
+
+### Component Mapping
+
+The component mapping table SHALL be delivered via `MDXProvider` from `@mdx-js/react` instead of the `components` prop on `react-markdown`'s `<Markdown>` component. The mapping entries (element to Animus component) MUST remain identical.
+
+| Markdown Element             | Animus Component                      |
+| ---------------------------- | ------------------------------------- |
+| `h1`-`h4`                    | `Heading` (with level and auto-id)    |
+| `p`                          | `Prose`                               |
+| `strong`                     | `Strong`                              |
+| `a`                          | Styled anchor                         |
+| `blockquote`                 | BlockquoteWrapper                     |
+| `ul` / `ol`                  | Styled list wrappers                  |
+| `li`                         | Styled list item                      |
+| `hr`                         | Divider                               |
+| `table` / `th` / `td`        | TableContainer / Th / Td              |
+| `code` (inline)              | `InlineCode`                          |
+| `code` (block, inside `pre`) | `SyntaxBlock` with language detection |
+
+#### Scenario: All mapped elements render through ds components
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains each markdown element type
+- **THEN** every element renders through the same ds component as the previous react-markdown pipeline
+
+#### Scenario: Code block language detection preserved
+
+- **WHEN** a fenced code block specifies ` ```tsx `
+- **THEN** the `code` component receives a className or props that identify the language as `tsx`
+- **AND** `SyntaxBlock` renders with correct syntax highlighting
+
+### Code Block Rendering
+
+#### Single code block
+
+A fenced code block with language info string renders as `SyntaxBlock`:
+
+````markdown
+```tsx
+const Button = ds.styles({ base: { px: 16 } }).build();
+```
+````
+
+Renders as:
+
+```tsx
+<SyntaxBlock
+  language="tsx"
+  code="const Button = ds.styles({ base: { px: 16 } }).build();"
+/>
+```
+
+#### Code block pairing (input/output)
+
+When a code block with language `tsx`, `ts`, or `jsx` is immediately followed by a code block with language `css` (no intervening non-code sibling elements), both render as a single `CodeExample` component:
+
+```tsx
+<CodeExample
+  code={{
+    input: '/* content of first block */',
+    output: '/* content of second block */',
+  }}
+  language="tsx"
+/>
+```
+
+Detection is implemented as a remark plugin or a React post-processing step that inspects adjacent children.
+
+**Non-paired blocks:** Any code block NOT matching the pairing pattern renders as standalone `SyntaxBlock`.
+
+### Spacing
+
+The `MarkdownContent` wrapper applies vertical spacing between rendered elements. Target spacing:
+
+- Between headings and following content: 16px (tight)
+- Between content blocks: 16px
+- Between major sections (before h2): 64px
+- Between code blocks and surrounding content: 24px
+
+Spacing is applied via CSS on the wrapper targeting direct children, not via explicit `Stack` components.
+
+### Location
+
+```
+packages/showcase/src/components/docs/MarkdownContent.tsx
+```
+
+### Dependencies
+
+The showcase package SHALL depend on `@mdx-js/rollup`, `@mdx-js/react`, and `remark-gfm`. The `react-markdown` dependency SHALL be removed.
+
+#### Scenario: react-markdown removed
+
+- **WHEN** examining the showcase package.json
+- **THEN** `react-markdown` is not listed as a dependency
+
+#### Scenario: MDX dependencies present
+
+- **WHEN** examining the showcase package.json
+- **THEN** `@mdx-js/rollup`, `@mdx-js/react`, and `remark-gfm` are listed
+
+### Extraction Compatibility
+
+The `MarkdownContent` component itself uses Animus-styled components (Prose, Heading, SyntaxBlock, etc.) which are already extraction-compatible. The component's own wrapper styling (spacing CSS) should also use `ds.styles()` for extraction.
+
+MDX files compile to React components at build time but contain no Animus `ds.styles()` calls themselves — they are invisible to the extraction pipeline. No changes to the Rust crate or Vite plugin are needed.
+
+### MDX Component Provider
+
+The docs layout SHALL wrap rendered content in an `MDXProvider` that supplies the showcase component map. All standard markdown elements (headings, paragraphs, code blocks, links, lists, blockquotes, horizontal rules, tables, emphasis, strong) MUST render through the same ds-styled components as the current pipeline. The componentMap SHALL additionally include `Callout` as a custom component available without explicit import.
+
+#### Scenario: Heading renders via component map
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains `## Section Title`
+- **THEN** it renders as `<Heading level={2}>Section Title</Heading>` with auto-generated id
+
+#### Scenario: Code fence renders via SyntaxBlock
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains a fenced code block with language `tsx`
+- **THEN** it renders as `<SyntaxBlock language="tsx">` with syntax highlighting
+
+#### Scenario: Callout available in componentMap
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file uses `<Callout variant="tip">content</Callout>` without explicit import
+- **THEN** the Callout component renders with tip variant styling via the componentMap
+
+### SyntaxBlock Title Bar
+
+SyntaxBlock SHALL accept an optional `title` prop (string). When provided, a header bar SHALL render above the code content displaying the title text in monospace font with a surface background and bottom border.
+
+#### Scenario: Title bar rendering
+
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with title="button.ts"
+- **THEN** a header bar appears above the code showing "button.ts" in monospace with a language indicator
+
+#### Scenario: No title
+
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders without a title prop
+- **THEN** no header bar renders — behavior matches current implementation
+
+### SyntaxBlock Copy Button
+
+SyntaxBlock SHALL accept an optional `copyable` prop (boolean, default true). When true, a CopyButton SHALL render in the header area (in the title bar if title is present, otherwise in a minimal overlay position). The CopyButton SHALL copy the raw code text to clipboard.
+
+#### Scenario: Copy button present by default
+
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders without explicit copyable prop
+- **THEN** a copy button is visible in the header/overlay area
+
+#### Scenario: Copy button copies code
+
+- **WHEN** user clicks the copy button on a SyntaxBlock
+- **THEN** the raw code text (children string) is copied to clipboard with animated feedback
+
+#### Scenario: Copy disabled
+
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with copyable={false}
+- **THEN** no copy button renders
+
+### SyntaxBlock Collapsible Mode
+
+SyntaxBlock SHALL accept an optional `collapsible` prop (boolean, default false). When true, a collapse toggle SHALL appear in the title bar. Clicking it SHALL toggle the code content visibility. The toggle chevron SHALL rotate with CSS transition.
+
+#### Scenario: Collapsible with title
+
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with collapsible={true} and title="example.ts"
+- **THEN** a collapse chevron appears in the title bar; clicking it hides the code content
+
+#### Scenario: Collapsed state
+
+- **WHEN** the code content is collapsed
+- **THEN** only the title bar is visible; the chevron rotates to indicate collapsed state
+
+### SyntaxBlock Line Numbers
+
+SyntaxBlock SHALL accept an optional `showLineNumbers` prop (boolean, default false). When true, line numbers SHALL render as a left-aligned column alongside each code line in dim color with right alignment and user-select: none.
+
+#### Scenario: Line numbers enabled
+
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with showLineNumbers={true}
+- **THEN** each line displays a line number starting at 1, right-aligned, in dim color, not selectable
+
+#### Scenario: Line numbers disabled by default
+
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders without showLineNumbers
+- **THEN** no line numbers appear — matches current behavior
+
+### Heading renders anchor link with icon
+
+Heading SHALL use a lucide-react icon (`Link`, `Check`) for the anchor copy button instead of inline SVGs. Hover reveal, click-to-copy, and copied feedback behavior remain unchanged.
+
+#### Scenario: Heading anchor icon default state
+
+- **WHEN** Heading renders with an id
+- **THEN** the anchor button contains a lucide `Link` icon that appears on hover
+
+#### Scenario: Heading anchor icon copied state
+
+- **WHEN** user clicks the anchor button
+- **THEN** the icon changes to lucide `Check` with copied state styling
+
+### Requirement: Heading uses CSS-only anchor hover
+
+Heading SHALL use `_hover` selector alias on HeadingWrapper to reveal the anchor button via CSS, replacing JavaScript onMouseEnter/onMouseLeave event handlers.
+
+#### Scenario: Anchor visibility on hover
+
+- **WHEN** user hovers over a heading
+- **THEN** the anchor button opacity SHALL transition to visible via CSS `_hover: { '& [data-anchor]': { opacity: '0.5' } }` on the wrapper
+- **AND** no JavaScript event handlers SHALL be used for this behavior
+
+### Requirement: Heading anchor uses states for copied feedback
+
+AnchorButton SHALL use `.states({ copied })` for the copied visual feedback instead of inline style.
+
+#### Scenario: Copy feedback via states
+
+- **WHEN** user clicks the anchor button and the URL is copied
+- **THEN** the AnchorButton SHALL receive the `copied` state prop
+- **AND** the visual change (color, opacity) SHALL be applied via `@layer states` CSS
+
+### Requirement: Heading anchor is a button element
+
+AnchorButton SHALL be a `<button>` element instead of `<span role="button" tabIndex={0}>`.
+
+#### Scenario: Semantic button element
+
+- **WHEN** AnchorButton renders
+- **THEN** it SHALL be an HTML `<button>` element with native keyboard handling (Enter/Space to activate)
+- **AND** it SHALL include `_focusVisible` styles for keyboard focus indication
+
+### Requirement: SyntaxBlock renders collapse toggle with icon
+
+SyntaxBlock SHALL use a lucide-react icon (`ChevronDown` or similar) for the collapse toggle instead of an inline SVG. Rotation via `.states({ collapsed })` remains unchanged.
+
+#### Scenario: SyntaxBlock collapse toggle icon
+
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with collapsible content
+- **THEN** the collapse toggle displays a lucide chevron icon that rotates via the `collapsed` state
+
+### Requirement: SyntaxBlock theme token consistency
+
+The `animusTheme.plain.color` SHALL use `tokens.varRef('colors.text')` instead of `tokens.colors.text` for consistent CSS variable resolution.
+
+#### Scenario: Theme uses varRef consistently
+
+- **WHEN** the syntax theme is applied
+- **THEN** all color references in the theme object SHALL use `tokens.varRef()` for CSS variable resolution
+
+### Requirement: SyntaxBlock supports line highlighting in MDX
+
+SyntaxBlock SHALL accept `highlights` and `diffs` props when used directly in MDX via `<SyntaxBlock>` JSX. These props enhance code examples with visual markers without changing the default rendering of standard markdown code fences.
+
+#### Scenario: MDX author uses highlights
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains `<SyntaxBlock highlights={[3, 4]} language="tsx">{code}</SyntaxBlock>`
+- **THEN** lines 3 and 4 render with amber highlight styling
+
+#### Scenario: MDX author uses diffs
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains `<SyntaxBlock diffs={{ 2: "-", 3: "+" }} language="tsx">{code}</SyntaxBlock>`
+- **THEN** line 2 shows a removal marker and line 3 shows an addition marker
+
+#### Scenario: Standard code fences unchanged
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file uses triple-backtick code fences without explicit SyntaxBlock JSX
+- **THEN** rendering is identical to current behavior — no highlights or diffs applied

+## MDX Authoring Specification
+
+### Requirement: MDX compilation pipeline
+
+The showcase build SHALL compile `.mdx` files via `@mdx-js/rollup` as a Vite plugin. The plugin MUST be ordered before `react()` in the Vite plugin array. The `remarkGfm` plugin MUST be configured for table, strikethrough, and task list support.
+
+#### Scenario: MDX file compiles to React component
+
+- **WHEN** a `.mdx` file exists under `src/content/`
+- **THEN** Vite compiles it to a React component exportable as default
+
+#### Scenario: Plugin ordering
+
+- **WHEN** the Vite config loads plugins
+- **THEN** `mdx()` appears before `react()` in the plugin array
+
+#### Scenario: GFM features work
+
+- **WHEN** a `.mdx` file contains a GFM table or strikethrough syntax
+- **THEN** the compiled output renders the table/strikethrough correctly
+
+### Requirement: MDX component provider
+
+The docs layout SHALL wrap rendered content in an `MDXProvider` that supplies the showcase component map. All standard markdown elements (headings, paragraphs, code blocks, links, lists, blockquotes, horizontal rules, tables, emphasis, strong) MUST render through the same ds-styled components as the current pipeline. The componentMap SHALL additionally include `Callout` as a custom component available without explicit import.
+
+#### Scenario: Heading renders via component map
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains `## Section Title`
+- **THEN** it renders as `<Heading level={2}>Section Title</Heading>` with auto-generated id
+
+#### Scenario: Code fence renders via SyntaxBlock
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains a fenced code block with language `tsx`
+- **THEN** it renders as `<SyntaxBlock language="tsx">` with syntax highlighting
+
+#### Scenario: Inline code renders via InlineCode
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains `` `someCode` `` inline
+- **THEN** it renders as `<InlineCode>`
+
+#### Scenario: Callout available in componentMap
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file uses `<Callout variant="tip">content</Callout>` without explicit import
+- **THEN** the Callout component renders with tip variant styling via the componentMap
+
+### Requirement: Content files are MDX format
+
+All documentation content files SHALL use the `.mdx` extension. No `.md` content files SHALL remain in `src/content/`. Each file MUST be valid MDX (JSX-safe syntax — no unescaped `<`, `>`, `{`, `}` outside of code fences or inline code spans).
+
+#### Scenario: All content files are .mdx
+
+- **WHEN** listing files in `src/content/`
+- **THEN** every file has a `.mdx` extension
+
+#### Scenario: No JSX parse errors
+
+- **WHEN** the showcase builds
+- **THEN** no MDX file produces a JSX syntax error from unescaped characters
+
+### Requirement: Content glob loads modules not strings
+
+The content discovery glob SHALL import `.mdx` files as React component modules (not raw strings). Each module's default export MUST be a renderable React component.
+
+#### Scenario: Glob returns component modules
+
+- **WHEN** `import.meta.glob('./content/**/*.mdx')` resolves
+- **THEN** each entry's default export is a React component (callable as JSX)
+
+#### Scenario: Lazy loading preserved
+
+- **WHEN** a doc page route is navigated to
+- **THEN** only that page's MDX module is loaded (code-split per route)
+
+### Requirement: Live component embedding
+
+MDX content files SHALL support importing and rendering React components inline alongside markdown prose. Components imported in an MDX file MUST render as live, interactive instances.
+
+#### Scenario: Imported component renders live
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file contains `import { Button } from '../../components/docs/Button'` and `<Button color="primary" kind="fill" size="md">Click</Button>`
+- **THEN** the page renders a live, interactive Button instance inline with the surrounding prose
+
+#### Scenario: Component uses extracted styles
+
+- **WHEN** a live component is rendered in an MDX page
+- **THEN** its styles come from the extracted CSS (virtual:animus/styles.css), not runtime injection
+
+### Requirement: Type declarations for MDX modules
+
+The project MUST include a type declaration for `.mdx` file imports so that TypeScript resolves default imports as `ComponentType`.
+
+#### Scenario: TypeScript accepts MDX import
+
+- **WHEN** a `.tsx` file imports from a `.mdx` file
+- **THEN** TypeScript resolves the default export as `ComponentType` without error
+
+### Requirement: Doc component imports in MDX
+
+MDX content files SHALL support importing and using documentation-specific components (LivePreview, TokenBadge, TypeSignature, ParamTable, MethodCard, ChainStep, TabGroup) from the showcase component barrel or relative paths. These components MUST render as interactive instances alongside markdown prose.
+
+#### Scenario: LivePreview in MDX
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file imports LivePreview and renders `<LivePreview preview={<Component />} code={<SyntaxBlock>...</SyntaxBlock>} />`
+- **THEN** a tabbed preview/code panel renders inline with the surrounding prose
+
+#### Scenario: TokenBadge in MDX prose
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file uses `<TokenBadge variant="method">.styles()</TokenBadge>` inline
+- **THEN** the semantic badge renders as an inline-flex element within the text flow
+
+#### Scenario: Reference components in MDX
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file uses TypeSignature, ParamTable, or MethodCard
+- **THEN** each renders as an interactive API reference component with full styling and behavior
+
+#### Scenario: ChainStep visualization in MDX
+
+- **WHEN** an MDX file wraps ChainStep in a client component with state management
+- **THEN** the interactive chain visualization renders with clickable steps and active highlighting

+### Requirement: Inline code with template literal syntax renders as literal text
+
+MDX prose containing inline code that includes backticks and `${expression}` syntax SHALL render the content as literal text, not as evaluated JavaScript expressions.
+
+#### Scenario: Theming page renders without ReferenceError
+
+- **WHEN** the theming docs page loads at `/architecture/theming`
+- **THEN** line 358 renders `Record<name, `var(--${string})` >` as inline code text without throwing a ReferenceError
+
+#### Scenario: Code element renders identically to backtick inline code
+
+- **WHEN** `<code>{'content'}</code>` is used instead of backtick delimiters in MDX prose
+- **THEN** the rendered HTML produces a `<code>` element with the same styling as backtick-delimited inline code

+### Requirement: In-memory CSS delivery via processAssets
+
+The AnimusWebpackPlugin SHALL deliver CSS to webpack's asset pipeline via the `compilation.hooks.processAssets` hook, replacing the content of the `.animus/styles.css` asset with the assembled CSS from a shared module-scope variable. This replaces direct `writeFileSync` as the primary CSS delivery mechanism.
+
+#### Scenario: processAssets replaces stub content
+
+- **WHEN** webpack processes assets during a compilation
+- **THEN** the plugin's `processAssets` hook SHALL find the `.animus/styles.css` asset in the compilation
+- **AND** replace its content with the full assembled CSS from the shared variable
+- **AND** this SHALL happen identically for every compiler instance (server, client, edge-server)
+
+#### Scenario: Shared CSS is empty on first compilation
+
+- **WHEN** `processAssets` fires before the extraction pipeline has completed (shared CSS is empty)
+- **THEN** the hook SHALL skip asset replacement and leave the stub content intact
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple compilers inject same CSS
+
+- **WHEN** all 3 compiler instances' `processAssets` hooks fire during the same compilation cycle
+- **THEN** each SHALL inject the same CSS content from the shared variable
+- **AND** no coordination or ownership gating SHALL be required for correctness
+
+### Requirement: Module-scope shared CSS storage
+
+The singleton module SHALL provide a shared CSS variable accessible to all compiler instances via `globalThis`. The extraction pipeline stores assembled CSS here; `processAssets` reads from here.
+
+#### Scenario: Pipeline stores CSS in shared variable
+
+- **WHEN** `runFullPipeline()` or `runIncrementalPipeline()` completes CSS assembly
+- **THEN** the assembled CSS SHALL be stored in the shared variable via the singleton setter
+
+#### Scenario: Shared variable persists across compilations
+
+- **WHEN** a new compilation starts (watch cycle N+1)
+- **THEN** the shared CSS from the previous cycle SHALL still be available until updated by a new pipeline run
+
+### Requirement: Stub file for module resolution
+
+The `.animus/styles.css` file on disk SHALL serve as a resolution stub. It SHALL be created during the `webpack()` callback (before compilation starts) if it does not already exist. Its on-disk content is not authoritative — `processAssets` replaces it in-memory.
+
+#### Scenario: Stub created on first build
+
+- **WHEN** the `webpack()` callback runs and `.animus/styles.css` does not exist
+- **THEN** a stub file SHALL be created containing only the `@layer` declaration
+- **AND** this file SHALL be resolvable by webpack's module resolution
+
+#### Scenario: Stub already exists
+
+- **WHEN** the `webpack()` callback runs and `.animus/styles.css` already exists (from a previous build)
+- **THEN** the existing file SHALL be left intact — `processAssets` will replace its content in-memory
+
+### Requirement: Edge compiler early exit
+
+The plugin SHALL skip all hook registration for the `edge-server` webpack compiler.
+
+#### Scenario: Edge compiler detected
+
+- **WHEN** `apply()` is called with a compiler whose `options.name` is `'edge-server'`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT register `run`, `watchRun`, or `processAssets` hooks
+
+### Requirement: HMR trigger via disk write
+
+After the extraction pipeline updates the shared CSS variable, the owning instance SHALL write the CSS to disk to trigger webpack's file watcher for HMR recompilation. The disk content does not need to be authoritative — `processAssets` ensures correct content regardless.
+
+#### Scenario: CSS changes trigger recompilation
+
+- **WHEN** the extraction pipeline produces new CSS (different content hash)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL write the new CSS to `.animus/styles.css` on disk
+- **AND** webpack's file watcher SHALL detect the change and trigger a new compilation
+- **AND** the new compilation's `processAssets` SHALL inject the correct CSS from the shared variable

+### Requirement: createTransform utility function
+
+The `@animus-ui/core` package SHALL export a `createTransform(name, fn)` function that accepts a string identifier and a transform function, and returns a new callable function decorated with a `.transformName` property. The returned function SHALL be a NEW function that delegates to the original (not a mutation of the original).
+
+#### Scenario: Basic createTransform usage
+
+- **WHEN** `const size = createTransform('size', (v) => typeof v === 'number' ? percentageOrAbsolute(v) : v)` is called
+- **THEN** `size(4)` SHALL return `'4px'` AND `size.transformName` SHALL equal `'size'`
+
+#### Scenario: Returned function is callable with original signature
+
+- **WHEN** a `NamedTransform` is called as `transform(value, property, props)`
+- **THEN** it SHALL delegate to the wrapped function with the same arguments and return its result
+
+#### Scenario: Shared function reference safety
+
+- **WHEN** the same underlying function is passed to two different `createTransform` calls (`createTransform('a', fn)` and `createTransform('b', fn)`)
+- **THEN** the first result SHALL have `.transformName === 'a'` AND the second SHALL have `.transformName === 'b'` — neither overwrites the other
+
+#### Scenario: NamedTransform satisfies TransformFn type
+
+- **WHEN** a `NamedTransform` is assigned to a slot typed as `TransformFn` (the bare function type used in prop configs)
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL accept the assignment without error — `NamedTransform` is a subtype of `TransformFn`
+
+### Requirement: Built-in transforms use createTransform
+
+All built-in transform functions exported from `@animus-ui/core` SHALL be wrapped with `createTransform`. The transform names SHALL match the identifiers currently used in serialization: `'size'`, `'borderShorthand'`, `'gridItemRatio'`, `'gridItem'`.
+
+#### Scenario: size transform is named
+
+- **WHEN** the `size` export from `@animus-ui/core` is inspected
+- **THEN** `size.transformName` SHALL equal `'size'`
+
+#### Scenario: borderShorthand transform is named
+
+- **WHEN** the `borderShorthand` export from `@animus-ui/core` is inspected
+- **THEN** `borderShorthand.transformName` SHALL equal `'borderShorthand'`
+
+#### Scenario: gridItemRatio transform is named
+
+- **WHEN** the `gridItemRatio` export from `@animus-ui/core` is inspected
+- **THEN** `gridItemRatio.transformName` SHALL equal `'gridItemRatio'`
+
+#### Scenario: gridItem transform is named
+
+- **WHEN** the `gridItem` export from `@animus-ui/core` is inspected
+- **THEN** `gridItem.transformName` SHALL equal `'gridItem'`
+
+### Requirement: Serialization uses transformName with name fallback
+
+The `getExtractConfig()` function SHALL serialize transform identifiers by reading `.transformName` from the transform function. If `.transformName` is not present, it SHALL fall back to `Function.name`. If neither produces a non-empty string, the transform SHALL be omitted from serialization.
+
+#### Scenario: createTransform-wrapped function serializes correctly
+
+- **WHEN** a prop config has `transform: createTransform('size', fn)` and `getExtractConfig()` serializes it
+- **THEN** the serialized entry SHALL have `"transform": "size"`
+
+#### Scenario: Bare named function falls back to Function.name
+
+- **WHEN** a prop config has `transform: myCustomFn` where `myCustomFn` is a `const`-assigned function (`.name === 'myCustomFn'`, no `.transformName`)
+- **THEN** the serialized entry SHALL have `"transform": "myCustomFn"`
+
+#### Scenario: Anonymous function omits transform
+
+- **WHEN** a prop config has `transform: (v) => v` (anonymous, no `.transformName`, `.name === ''`)
+- **THEN** the serialized entry SHALL NOT include a `transform` field
+
+#### Scenario: TRANSFORM_MAP is no longer used
+
+- **WHEN** `getExtractConfig()` serializes transforms
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT reference any static `Map<Function, string>` — the mapping is derived from the function's own properties
+
+### Requirement: Custom transforms follow the same protocol
+
+Users defining custom transforms for their design system SHALL use `createTransform` to ensure extraction compatibility. Custom transforms created via `createTransform` SHALL be serialized and post-processed identically to built-in transforms.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom transform in custom config
+
+- **WHEN** a user defines `const fluid = createTransform('fluid', (v) => ...)` and uses it in `createAnimus().addGroup('text', { fontSize: { property: 'font-size', transform: fluid } })`
+- **THEN** `getExtractConfig()` SHALL serialize the transform as `"transform": "fluid"` AND the Vite plugin SHALL apply the `fluid` function at build time
+
+#### Scenario: Custom transform with same name as built-in
+
+- **WHEN** a user defines `const size = createTransform('size', (v) => `${v}rem`)` overriding the built-in size behavior
+- **THEN** the user's transform function SHALL be used (the config's function reference takes precedence), and serialization SHALL produce `"transform": "size"`
+
+### Requirement: Rust extraction captures inline transform functions in custom prop configs
+
+When the Rust `style_evaluator` encounters an inline function expression (`ArrowFunctionExpression` or `FunctionExpression`) as the value of a `transform` field in a `.props()` config object, it SHALL capture the function's source text from the AST span. This applies ONLY to the `transform` field — all other fields SHALL continue to bail on function expressions.
+
+#### Scenario: Inline arrow function captured
+
+- **WHEN** a `.props()` config contains `transform: (v) => \`${v}px\``
+- **THEN** the style evaluator SHALL capture the source text `(v) => \`${v}px\``and associate it with the`transform` property, without bailing
+
+#### Scenario: Inline function expression captured
+
+- **WHEN** a `.props()` config contains `transform: function(v) { return v + 'px'; }`
+- **THEN** the style evaluator SHALL capture the source text of the function expression and associate it with the `transform` property
+
+#### Scenario: Identifier reference still bails
+
+- **WHEN** a `.props()` config contains `transform: myTransform` where `myTransform` is an identifier reference
+- **THEN** the style evaluator SHALL bail on that property with "variable reference (non-static)" — identifier resolution is not supported for custom prop transforms
+
+#### Scenario: Function expression on non-transform fields still bails
+
+- **WHEN** a `.props()` config contains `scale: (v) => v * 2` (function on a non-transform field)
+- **THEN** the style evaluator SHALL bail on that property as before — function capture applies only to `transform` fields
+
+### Requirement: Inline transform function emitted directly in replacement JS
+
+When a custom prop has a captured inline transform function, the transform_emitter SHALL emit the function body directly in the `customDynamicConfig` object, without using the shared `transforms` registry.
+
+#### Scenario: Inline transform emitted in replacement
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `.props({ sizing: { property: 'flexBasis', transform: (v) => \`${v}px\` } })`and`sizing` has dynamic JSX usage
+- **THEN** the replacement JS SHALL contain `"transform":(v) => \`${v}px\``in the customDynamicConfig for the`sizing` prop
+
+#### Scenario: No transformName emitted for inline transforms
+
+- **WHEN** a custom prop transform is an inline function (not a named group transform)
+- **THEN** the replacement JS SHALL NOT contain a `"transformName"` field for that prop — there is no name
+
+#### Scenario: Named group transforms still use registry
+
+- **WHEN** a group-level prop config has `transform: Some("size")` (from TS subprocess serialization)
+- **THEN** the replacement JS SHALL continue to emit `"transform":transforms.size` and `"transformName":"size"` — group transform path is unchanged

+# narrative-components Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+TBD - created by archiving change doc-v4-patterns. Update Purpose after archive.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: BeforeAfter split view
+
+The system SHALL provide a BeforeAfter component that displays two code panes side-by-side with labeled headers, demonstrating input source → output result transformations.
+
+#### Scenario: Rendering a before/after extraction example
+
+- **WHEN** BeforeAfter is rendered with `before` (code string + label) and `after` (code string + label) props
+- **THEN** two SyntaxBlocks appear in a 1fr 1fr grid, each with a pane header showing the label, filename, and a status tag
+
+#### Scenario: Pane headers distinguish input from output
+
+- **WHEN** the component renders
+- **THEN** the left pane header shows a muted label with a "runtime" tag, and the right pane header shows a green-tinted label with an "extracted" tag
+
+#### Scenario: Embedded SyntaxBlocks suppress their own borders
+
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlocks render inside BeforeAfter
+- **THEN** they render with `bordered={false}` since the outer container provides the shared border
+
+#### Scenario: Language detection per pane
+
+- **WHEN** before and after panes have different languages (e.g., TSX input, CSS output)
+- **THEN** each SyntaxBlock receives its own language prop for correct highlighting
+
+### Requirement: MetricCard stat grid
+
+The system SHALL provide a MetricCard component for displaying key statistics with large formatted numbers, labels, and optional delta badges.
+
+#### Scenario: Rendering a 3-up metric grid
+
+- **WHEN** three MetricCards are placed inside a MetricGrid
+- **THEN** they render in a 3-column grid with consistent spacing
+
+#### Scenario: Metric value with unit suffix
+
+- **WHEN** a MetricCard has value "0" and unit "kb"
+- **THEN** the value renders in large mono font with the unit in smaller, dimmer text beside it
+
+#### Scenario: Delta badge indicates improvement
+
+- **WHEN** a MetricCard has a delta prop with kind "good"
+- **THEN** a green-tinted badge renders below the label showing the delta text
+
+### Requirement: BundleBar comparison chart
+
+The system SHALL provide a BundleBar component for horizontal bar charts comparing sizes or quantities across categories.
+
+#### Scenario: Rendering comparative bars
+
+- **WHEN** BundleBar receives an array of items with label, value text, percentage, and category
+- **THEN** each item renders as a row: right-aligned label, background track, and colored fill at the given percentage width
+
+#### Scenario: Fill color varies by category
+
+- **WHEN** an item has category "runtime", "extracted", or "static"
+- **THEN** the fill bar uses the corresponding color (accent, teal, blue respectively)
+
+#### Scenario: Fill width animates on mount
+
+- **WHEN** the component mounts
+- **THEN** fill bars transition from 0% to their target width with a cubic-bezier easing

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Nested color storage
+
+The ThemeBuilder SHALL store colors in their original nested structure as passed to `addColors()`. The builder SHALL NOT flatten nested color objects at storage time.
+
+#### Scenario: Nested color object preserved
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColors({ gray: { 50: '#fafafa', 100: '#f0f0f0' } })`
+- **THEN** `#theme.colors` SHALL contain `{ gray: { 50: '#fafafa', 100: '#f0f0f0' } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Flat color entries preserved as-is
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColors({ ember: '#ff2800', bone: '#e8e0d0' })`
+- **THEN** `#theme.colors` SHALL contain `{ ember: '#ff2800', bone: '#e8e0d0' }`
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple addColors calls deep-merge
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColors({ gray: { 50: '#fafafa' } })` then `.addColors({ brand: { 500: '#ff0000' } })`
+- **THEN** `#theme.colors` SHALL contain `{ gray: { 50: '#fafafa' }, brand: { 500: '#ff0000' } }`
+
+### Requirement: Nested scale storage
+
+The ThemeBuilder SHALL store scale values in their original structure as passed to `addScale()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Scale values preserved
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addScale({ name: 'space', values: { 0: '0', 8: '0.5rem' } })`
+- **THEN** `#theme.space` SHALL contain `{ 0: '0', 8: '0.5rem' }`
+
+#### Scenario: Nested scale values preserved
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addScale({ name: 'test', values: { nested: { a: '1px', b: '2px' } } })`
+- **THEN** `#theme.test` SHALL contain `{ nested: { a: '1px', b: '2px' } }`
+
+### Requirement: Nested color mode storage
+
+The ThemeBuilder SHALL store color mode configurations in their original nested structure. Mode aliases SHALL use dot-path notation to reference color keys.
+
+#### Scenario: Mode alias uses dot-path
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColorModes('dark', { dark: { muted: 'gray.50', primary: 'ember' } })`
+- **THEN** the mode config SHALL be stored with dot-path aliases and validated by walking the nested color structure
+
+#### Scenario: Nested mode alias preserved
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColorModes('dark', { dark: { primary: { _: 'ember', hover: 'fire.600' } } })`
+- **THEN** the mode config SHALL preserve the nesting `{ primary: { _: 'ember', hover: 'fire.600' } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Mode alias validation walks nested colors
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColorModes('dark', { dark: { muted: 'gray.50' } })` and colors has `{ gray: { 50: '#fafafa' } }`
+- **THEN** validation SHALL pass — `gray.50` resolves to `theme.colors.gray['50']`
+
+#### Scenario: Invalid mode alias rejected
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColorModes('dark', { dark: { muted: 'nonexistent.key' } })`
+- **THEN** the builder SHALL throw an error referencing the unknown color path
+
+### Requirement: Dot-path as internal path separator
+
+All user-facing references to nested token keys SHALL use dot-path notation (`.`). The dash-join format (`-`) SHALL exist only at the CSS serialization boundary.
+
+#### Scenario: Token ref syntax uses dot-path
+
+- **WHEN** consumer writes `.addScale({ name: 'shadows', values: { glow: '0 0 12px {colors.gray.50}' } })`
+- **THEN** the token ref `{colors.gray.50}` SHALL resolve by walking `theme.colors.gray['50']`
+
+#### Scenario: CSS variable names use dash-join
+
+- **WHEN** theme has nested colors `{ gray: { 50: '#fafafa' } }` and `build()` runs
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS variable SHALL be `--color-gray-50` (dot→dash at serialization boundary)
+
+#### Scenario: manifest.tokenMap uses dot-path keys
+
+- **WHEN** theme is built with nested colors
+- **THEN** `manifest.tokenMap` keys SHALL use dot-path: `'colors.gray.50'`
+
+#### Scenario: LiteralPaths uses dot separator
+
+- **WHEN** TypeScript computes `LiteralPaths<T['colors'], '.'>`
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be `'gray.50' | 'gray.100' | 'ember' | ...` (dot-path keys)
+
+### Requirement: addBreakpoints method
+
+`createTheme()` SHALL accept no arguments. Breakpoints SHALL be added via `.addBreakpoints()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Zero-arg construction
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme()`
+- **THEN** the builder SHALL return a ThemeBuilder in empty state
+
+#### Scenario: addBreakpoints stores breakpoints
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addBreakpoints({ sm: 768, lg: 1200 })`
+- **THEN** `#theme.breakpoints` SHALL contain `{ sm: 768, lg: 1200 }`
+
+#### Scenario: Breakpoint validation
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addBreakpoints({ sm: -1 })`
+- **THEN** the builder SHALL throw an error
+
+### Requirement: Type-state chain ordering
+
+The ThemeBuilder SHALL enforce method ordering via type narrowing. Methods that depend on prior state SHALL only be available after their dependencies are satisfied.
+
+#### Scenario: addColorModes requires colors
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme().addBreakpoints({...}).addColorModes('dark', {...})`
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL produce an error — `addColorModes` is not available until after `addColors`
+
+#### Scenario: addScale available after colors
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme().addBreakpoints({...}).addColors({...}).addScale({...})`
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL compile — `addScale` is available after colors
+
+#### Scenario: Later methods still available after earlier ones
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addScale({...}).addColors({...})` (colors after scale)
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL allow this — `addColors` augments the existing state
+
+#### Scenario: from() relaxes ordering
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme().from(libTokens).addScale({...})`
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL compile — `.from()` advances to a state where all methods are available
+
+### Requirement: Build-time flattening
+
+`build()` SHALL flatten nested theme data into structures required by `serialize()` and `assembleManifest()`. No flattening SHALL occur before `build()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Flat token map produced at build time
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColors({ gray: { 50: '#fafafa' } }).build()`
+- **THEN** `theme.manifest.tokenMap` SHALL contain `{ 'colors.gray.50': 'var(--color-gray-50)' }`
+
+#### Scenario: CSS variables use dash-join names
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColors({ ember: '#ff2800' }).build()`
+- **THEN** `theme.manifest.variableCss` SHALL contain `--color-ember: #ff2800`
+
+#### Scenario: Token refs resolved at build time via nested traversal
+
+- **WHEN** theme has `{colors.ember}` in a scale value
+- **THEN** `build()` SHALL resolve it by walking nested structure and substituting the resolved value
+
+#### Scenario: serialize() output format unchanged
+
+- **WHEN** a theme equivalent to the current showcase theme is built
+- **THEN** `serialize()` SHALL produce identical `scalesJson`, `variableMapJson`, `variableCss`, and `contextualVarsJson` (modulo dot-path key format in scalesJson)
+
+### Requirement: Built theme exposes nested data
+
+The built theme SHALL expose raw nested config as enumerable properties and boundary methods as non-enumerable.
+
+#### Scenario: Colors are nested after build
+
+- **WHEN** consumer accesses `theme.colors`
+- **THEN** the value SHALL be the original nested color map
+
+#### Scenario: manifest is non-enumerable
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `Object.keys(theme)`
+- **THEN** `manifest`, `serialize`, and `varRef` SHALL NOT appear
+
+### Requirement: varRef accessor
+
+The built theme SHALL provide a non-enumerable `varRef(tokenPath)` method.
+
+#### Scenario: varRef for emitted color
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `theme.varRef('colors.gray.50')`
+- **THEN** the return value SHALL be `'var(--color-gray-50)'`
+
+#### Scenario: varRef for non-emitted scale
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `theme.varRef('space.8')`
+- **THEN** the return value SHALL be `'0.5rem'`
+
+#### Scenario: varRef is non-enumerable
+
+- **WHEN** consumer spreads the theme `{ ...theme }`
+- **THEN** `varRef` SHALL NOT be in the spread result
+
+### Requirement: Private theme fields removed
+
+The built theme SHALL NOT expose `_variables`, `_tokens`, or `_getColorValue`.
+
+#### Scenario: \_variables not on theme
+
+- **WHEN** consumer accesses `theme._variables`
+- **THEN** the value SHALL be `undefined`
+
+#### Scenario: Pipeline data via manifest and serialize
+
+- **WHEN** the plugin needs flat token maps and CSS variable blocks
+- **THEN** it SHALL access them through `theme.manifest` and `theme.serialize()`
+
+### Requirement: Terminology changes
+
+The ThemeBuilder SHALL use updated method names for clarity and cross-builder consistency.
+
+#### Scenario: declareContextualVars
+
+- **WHEN** consumer declares phantom contextual variables
+- **THEN** the method SHALL be `.declareContextualVars()` (not `addContextualVars`)
+
+#### Scenario: extendScale
+
+- **WHEN** consumer extends an existing scale with computed values
+- **THEN** the method SHALL be `.extendScale(key, fn)` (not `updateScale`)
+
+#### Scenario: ds.toConfig()
+
+- **WHEN** the system instance serializes for the plugin
+- **THEN** the method SHALL be `ds.toConfig()` (not `ds.serialize()`) to disambiguate from `tokens.serialize()`

+### Requirement: withAnimus config wrapper
+
+The `withAnimus()` function SHALL accept an options object with a required `system` path and return a function that wraps a Next.js config object, injecting the webpack plugin and loader.
+
+#### Scenario: Minimal configuration
+
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `withAnimus({ system: './src/ds.ts' })({ reactStrictMode: true })`
+- **THEN** the returned config SHALL include the Animus webpack plugin and loader rule while preserving all original Next.js config options
+

+- **THEN** the function SHALL throw a descriptive error: `[animus] 'system' option is required`
+
+#### Scenario: Existing webpack config preserved
+
+- **WHEN** the Next.js config already has a `webpack` function
+- **THEN** `withAnimus()` SHALL compose with it — calling the user's webpack function first, then adding the Animus plugin and loader to the result
+
+#### Scenario: Options forwarded to plugin
+
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `withAnimus({ system: './src/ds.ts', strict: true, verbose: true })`
+- **THEN** the Animus webpack plugin SHALL receive `strict` and `verbose` options
+
+### Requirement: Loader rule targets source files
+
+The injected webpack loader rule SHALL target `.ts`, `.tsx`, `.js`, and `.jsx` files, excluding `node_modules`.
+
+#### Scenario: Source files matched
+
+- **WHEN** webpack resolves a `.tsx` file in the project source directory

+The config wrapper SHALL ensure the `.animus/` output directory exists and document that it should be added to `.gitignore`.
+
+#### Scenario: Output directory created
+
+- **WHEN** `withAnimus()` initializes
+- **THEN** it SHALL create `.animus/` in the project root if it does not exist
+
+#### Scenario: Gitignore guidance
+
+- **WHEN** `.animus/` is not present in `.gitignore`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL log a one-time warning suggesting the user add `.animus/` to `.gitignore`

+### Requirement: Incremental re-analysis on file change
+
+In dev mode, the extraction pipeline SHALL run via the existing singleton deduplication (one instance executes, others await). After CSS is assembled, it SHALL be stored in the shared variable. After system-props content is reconstructed, it SHALL be stored in the shared variable via `setSharedSystemProps()`. Disk writes after CSS or system-props changes SHALL serve as HMR triggers. `processAssets` SHALL ensure all compilers deliver correct CSS regardless of which instance ran the pipeline.
+
+#### Scenario: Component file changed
+
+- **WHEN** a source file containing builder chain components is modified during dev
+- **THEN** the owning instance SHALL re-run `analyzeProject()` with updated file entries
+- **AND** store the new CSS in the shared variable
+- **AND** extract `system_prop_map` and `dynamic_props` from the manifest
+- **AND** reconstruct and store the system-props content in the shared variable
+- **AND** write CSS to disk (if changed) to trigger webpack recompilation
+- **AND** write system-props.js to disk (if changed) to trigger JS HMR
+- **AND** the recompilation's `processAssets` SHALL inject the updated CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Non-component file changed
+
+- **WHEN** a source file with no extractable components is modified during dev
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL skip re-analysis (content hash check shows no manifest-relevant change)
+
+#### Scenario: CSS content unchanged after re-analysis
+
+- **WHEN** re-analysis produces identical CSS (same content hash)
+- **THEN** no disk write SHALL occur and no recompilation SHALL be triggered
+
+### Requirement: System-props update during incremental re-analysis
+
+In dev mode, when `runIncrementalPipeline()` completes re-analysis, the plugin SHALL extract `system_prop_map` and `dynamic_props` from the manifest and reconstruct the `system-props.js` module content. The updated content SHALL be stored in the shared variable via `setSharedSystemProps()` and written to disk with a content-hash guard.
+
+#### Scenario: New system prop usage triggers system-props update
+
+- **WHEN** a developer adds `<Box px={16} />` where `px` was not previously used in any JSX
+- **THEN** `runIncrementalPipeline()` SHALL extract the updated `system_prop_map` containing the new `px` entry
+- **AND** write the updated `system-props.js` to disk
+- **AND** store the content in the shared variable via `setSharedSystemProps()`
+- **AND** webpack's file watcher SHALL detect the change and trigger JS module HMR
+
+#### Scenario: System-props content unchanged after re-analysis
+
+- **WHEN** a developer edits a component but does not introduce any new system prop usages or values
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT rewrite `system-props.js` to disk (content hash matches previous write)
+- **AND** no JS module invalidation SHALL occur for system-props
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic props updated during incremental
+
+- **WHEN** a component adds a new `.props()` custom dynamic prop during dev
+- **THEN** `runIncrementalPipeline()` SHALL extract the updated `dynamic_props` from the manifest
+- **AND** include the new `dynamicPropConfig` entry in the reconstructed `system-props.js`
+
+### Requirement: Geological reset on system file change
+
+The plugin SHALL detect changes to the system file and trigger a full reload — cache clear, system reload, and complete re-analysis. The new CSS SHALL be stored in the shared variable and written to disk for HMR.
+
+#### Scenario: System file modified
+
+- **WHEN** the system file (e.g., `src/ds.ts`) is modified during dev
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL call `clearAnalysisCache()`, re-run `loadSystem()`, re-run `analyzeProject()` with fresh config, store new CSS in the shared variable, and write to disk
+
+#### Scenario: Theme token change
+
+- **WHEN** the theme tokens or color scales change
+- **THEN** the geological reset SHALL produce updated variable CSS, stored in the shared variable and written to disk for HMR
+
+### Requirement: Content hash deduplication
+
+The plugin SHALL track content hashes for source files to avoid redundant analysis and CSS writes.
+
+#### Scenario: Unchanged file skipped
+
+- **WHEN** a file's content hash matches the previous analysis pass
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL send an empty source with the hash to `analyzeProject()` (Rust cache-hit path skips re-parse)
+
+#### Scenario: CSS write skipped when unchanged
+
+- **WHEN** resolved CSS content is identical to the existing `.animus/styles.css`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT rewrite the file (avoids unnecessary webpack recompilation)

+## Purpose
+
+Post-build assertions SHALL validate that the Next.js consumer fixture (`e2e/next-app/`) correctly exercises the extraction pipeline end-to-end. Assertions run against built output (not source) and use shared structural utilities from `@animus-ui/assertions` so layer ordering, class-name prefixes, and placeholder hygiene are verified by the same code that validates the Vite and showcase consumers.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Post-build assertion script
+
+The test app SHALL include a TypeScript assertion script (replacing the shell script) that validates the Next.js build output for extraction correctness using shared structural assertion utilities. The script SHALL exit with non-zero status on any assertion failure.
+
+#### Scenario: CSS layer ordering is structurally correct
+
+- **WHEN** the build output CSS files are inspected
+- **THEN** `@layer` declarations SHALL be validated for correct positional ordering via character position comparison
+- **AND** the assertion SHALL verify `@layer anm-base` precedes `@layer anm-variants`
+
+#### Scenario: Class names follow animus pattern
+
+- **WHEN** the build output JS or HTML files are searched
+- **THEN** they SHALL contain class names matching the `animus-` prefix pattern
+
+#### Scenario: No Emotion runtime
+
+- **WHEN** the build output JS bundles are searched for `@emotion`
+- **THEN** the search SHALL return no matches
+
+#### Scenario: No unresolved transform placeholders
+
+- **WHEN** the build output CSS files are searched for `__TRANSFORM__`
+- **THEN** the search SHALL return no matches
+
+#### Scenario: Both routers rendered
+
+- **WHEN** the build output directory is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain output for both App Router pages and Pages Router pages
+
+### Requirement: Root-level verification command
+
+The root `package.json` SHALL include atomic tier scripts (`verify:build:next` + `verify:assert:next`) and the `verify:next` composite that builds the Next.js test app and runs the TypeScript assertion script.
+
+#### Scenario: Verification command exists
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify:next` is executed from the repo root
+- **THEN** it SHALL build the Next.js app via `verify:build:next` and run the post-build TypeScript assertions via `verify:assert:next` (not shell script)
+- **AND** it SHALL exit with zero status when all assertions pass
+
+### Requirement: Assertion script uses shared utilities
+
+The Next.js post-build assertions SHALL import structural assertion utilities from the shared `@animus-ui/assertions` workspace package.
+
+#### Scenario: Shared utility import
+
+- **WHEN** the assertion script is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL import `assertLayerOrder`, `assertNoPlaceholders`, and `assertClassNameFormat` from `@animus-ui/assertions`
+
+### Requirement: Post-build assertion validates keyframes extraction
+
+The Next.js post-build assertion script (`e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-build.ts`) SHALL invoke `assertKeyframesExtracted` from `@animus-ui/assertions` against the concatenated CSS output from `.next/`, with `insideLayer: 'anm-global'` and `minBlocks` matching the count of named keyframes declared in the fixture's `animations` collection.
+
+#### Scenario: Assertion script imports and invokes the helper
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-build.ts` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL import `assertKeyframesExtracted` from `@animus-ui/assertions`
+- **AND** it SHALL call `assertKeyframesExtracted(css, { insideLayer: 'anm-global', minBlocks: <N>, minReferences: 1 })` where `<N>` matches the fixture's keyframe count
+
+#### Scenario: Build failure when keyframes block is missing
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify:next` is executed and the build output CSS is missing an expected `@keyframes animus-kf-<hash>` block
+- **THEN** `verify:assert:next` SHALL exit with non-zero status
+- **AND** the failure message SHALL identify the missing block via `AssertionError.details`
+
+#### Scenario: Build failure when animation-name references are mangled with px
+
+- **WHEN** the build output CSS contains any `animation-name: animus-kf-<hash>px` substring (indicating `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES` regression)
+- **THEN** `verify:assert:next` SHALL exit with non-zero status
+- **AND** the failure message SHALL identify the mangled value

+## Purpose
+
+The Next.js consumer fixture at `e2e/next-app/` SHALL include component and page fixtures that collectively exercise the extraction pipeline's behavioral taxonomy — base styles, variants, states, system props, compound variants, composition, and transforms — across both the App Router (RSC + client) and the Pages Router, proving the extraction pipeline works end-to-end in every Next.js rendering mode.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Component fixtures cover extraction behavioral taxonomy
+
+The test app SHALL include component fixtures that collectively exercise base styles, variants, states, system props, compound variants, composition, and transforms.
+
+#### Scenario: Base styles fixture
+
+- **WHEN** a `Box` component is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL use `.styles()` with static CSS properties and `.system()` for space + layout props, terminated with `.asElement('div')`
+
+#### Scenario: Variant fixture
+
+- **WHEN** a `Button` component is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL use `.variant()` for at least two variant props (e.g., size, intent), `.states()` for hover and disabled, and terminate with `.asElement('button')`
+
+#### Scenario: Compound variant fixture
+
+- **WHEN** a `Badge` component is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL use `.variant()` for at least two props and `.compound()` with a condition combining them
+
+#### Scenario: Composition fixture
+
+- **WHEN** a composed `Family` component is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL use `compose()` with at least two slots (Root + Child) sharing a variant prop
+
+#### Scenario: Transform fixture
+
+- **WHEN** a `Card` component is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL use a variant that triggers a named transform (e.g., `size` transform)
+
+### Requirement: RSC page renders server-only components
+
+The App Router index page (`app/page.tsx`) SHALL be a React Server Component (no `"use client"` directive) that renders extracted components.
+
+#### Scenario: Server component renders
+
+- **WHEN** `app/page.tsx` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT contain `"use client"` and SHALL import and render at least Box, Button, and Card
+
+### Requirement: Client page demonstrates interactivity
+
+The App Router client page (`app/client/page.tsx`) SHALL use `"use client"` and demonstrate interactive variant switching with React state.
+
+#### Scenario: Interactive variant toggling
+
+- **WHEN** `app/client/page.tsx` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL use `useState` to toggle a variant prop (e.g., Button size) on user interaction
+
+### Requirement: Pages Router page proves SSR extraction
+
+The Pages Router page SHALL import and render shared components, proving extraction works in the traditional SSR model.
+
+#### Scenario: Pages Router renders extracted components
+
+- **WHEN** the Pages Router page is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL import at least Box and Button (same components used by App Router) and render them
+
+### Requirement: Cross-router shared component
+
+At least one component SHALL be imported by both an App Router page and a Pages Router page.
+
+#### Scenario: Shared import
+
+- **WHEN** `Button` is traced through imports
+- **THEN** it SHALL appear in both `app/page.tsx` (or its imports) and the Pages Router page
+
+### Requirement: Keyframes collection fixture exists in Next test app
+
+The Next test app's system module (`e2e/next-app/src/ds.ts`) SHALL export a named `animations` binding that is the return value of `ds.createKeyframes({...})` — the builder-bound keyframes factory destructured from `createSystem({...}).build()`. The collection SHALL declare at least two distinct named keyframes with different frame bodies to exercise FNV-1a uniqueness and guard against accidental dedupe masking a regression. At least one frame body entry SHALL reference a theme token (e.g., `{colors.primary}`) so the `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>` typing contract is exercised end-to-end.
+
+#### Scenario: `animations` export is produced by the bound factory
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/next-app/src/ds.ts` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL destructure `createKeyframes` from `createSystem({...}).build()` alongside `system`
+- **AND** it SHALL export `animations = ds.createKeyframes({ <name1>: { ... }, <name2>: { ... } })` where `<name1>` and `<name2>` have different frame bodies
+- **AND** the file SHALL NOT contain `import { keyframes } from '@animus-ui/system'`
+
+#### Scenario: At least one frame body references a theme token
+
+- **WHEN** the `animations` collection is inspected
+- **THEN** at least one stop within at least one keyframe SHALL contain a value of the form `{scale.key}` referencing a scale defined on the fixture's theme
+- **AND** the `@keyframes` block emitted by the build SHALL resolve that reference to the CSS variable produced by the theme emitter
+
+### Requirement: RSC page renders a keyframes-consuming component
+
+The App Router index page (`e2e/next-app/app/page.tsx`) SHALL import and render at least one component whose `ds.styles()` declaration includes `animationName: animations.<key>` referencing the fixture's `animations` collection. The component SHALL remain renderable as a React Server Component (no `"use client"` required).
+

+## Purpose
+
+Defines the Next.js test fixture application used to verify `@animus-ui/next-plugin` consumer-bundler integration end-to-end. The fixture exercises both App Router and Pages Router rendering models, uses `withAnimus()` to configure the plugin, and carries its own design-system module (`src/ds.ts`) so post-build assertions can validate the full extraction pipeline against the `.next/` output. The fixture resides under `e2e/next-app/` (relocated from `packages/next-test-app/` by `e2e-workspace-topology`) to separate "whole-app build targets" from libraries.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Package configuration
+
+The test app SHALL be a private workspace package at `e2e/next-app/` with `next`, `react`, `react-dom` as dependencies and `@animus-ui/system` and `@animus-ui/next-plugin` as dependencies.
+
+#### Scenario: Package is private
+
+- **WHEN** the package.json is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL have `"private": true` and SHALL NOT be published to npm
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace membership
+
+- **WHEN** the root `package.json` workspaces array is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL include `e2e/next-app`
+- **AND** it SHALL NOT include any reference to `packages/next-test-app`
+
+#### Scenario: Relocated from packages/
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer locates the next-app test fixture
+- **THEN** it resides at `e2e/next-app/`, not `packages/next-test-app/`
+- **AND** git history for files within the package traces via `git log --follow` back to the `packages/next-test-app/` path
+
+### Requirement: Dual-router directory structure
+
+The app SHALL contain both `app/` (App Router) and `pages/` (Pages Router) directories, exercising both Next.js rendering models in a single build.
+
+#### Scenario: App Router pages exist
+
+- **WHEN** the `app/` directory is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain `layout.tsx` (root layout), `page.tsx` (RSC page), and `client/page.tsx` (client component page)
+
+#### Scenario: Pages Router pages exist
+
+- **WHEN** the `pages/` directory is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain `_app.tsx` (custom App) and at least one page file
+
+#### Scenario: CSS imported in both routers
+
+- **WHEN** `app/layout.tsx` and `pages/_app.tsx` are inspected
+- **THEN** both SHALL import the extracted CSS stylesheet
+
+### Requirement: Next.js config uses withAnimus
+
+The `next.config.ts` (or `.js`) SHALL use `withAnimus()` from `@animus-ui/next-plugin` with the `system` option pointing to the design system module.
+
+#### Scenario: Plugin configured
+
+- **WHEN** `next.config.ts` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL call `withAnimus({ system: './src/ds.ts' })` wrapping the Next.js config
+
+### Requirement: Design system module
+
+The app SHALL have a `src/ds.ts` file exporting a `SystemInstance` and theme tokens built with `createSystem()` and `createTheme()` from `@animus-ui/system`.
+
+#### Scenario: Theme with required scales
+
+- **WHEN** the theme is built
+- **THEN** it SHALL include at least `colors`, `space`, and `fontSizes` scales with enough entries to exercise variant and system prop resolution
+
+#### Scenario: System with prop groups
+
+- **WHEN** the system is built
+- **THEN** it SHALL include at least `space` and `layout` prop groups via `addGroup()`
+
+#### Scenario: Global styles
+
+- **WHEN** the system is built
+- **THEN** it SHALL include a CSS reset via `withGlobalStyles()` emitting into `@layer global`

+### Requirement: Webpack plugin orchestrates extraction pipeline
+
+The Next.js webpack plugin SHALL run the full extraction pipeline (loadSystem → analyzeProject → applyUnitFallback) once per build, sharing results across all webpack compiler instances via a module-scope singleton promise mutex. The plugin SHALL pass all config fields from `loadSystemModule()` to `analyzeProject()`, including `selectorAliasesJson` and `selectorOrderJson`. CSS delivery SHALL use the `processAssets` hook to inject assembled CSS into webpack's asset pipeline, rather than writing directly to disk.
+
+#### Scenario: Single analysis across multi-compiler
+
+- **WHEN** Next.js invokes the webpack config function three times (server-nodejs, server-edge, client)
+- **THEN** `analyzeProject()` SHALL execute exactly once
+- **AND** the assembled CSS SHALL be stored in a shared module-scope variable
+- **AND** all three compiler instances' `processAssets` hooks SHALL inject the same CSS into their respective asset pipelines
+
+#### Scenario: Plugin delivers CSS via processAssets
+
+- **WHEN** analysis completes and CSS is assembled
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL store the CSS in the shared variable
+- **AND** `processAssets` SHALL replace the `.animus/styles.css` asset content in each compiler's compilation
+- **AND** disk writes SHALL serve only as HMR triggers, not as the authoritative CSS source
+
+#### Scenario: Selector aliases passed to analysis
+
+- **WHEN** `loadSystemModule()` returns `selectorAliases` and `selectorOrder`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL capture these values and pass them to `analyzeProject()` as `selectorAliasesJson` and `selectorOrderJson` (not null)
+
+### Requirement: Webpack loader transforms source files
+
+The webpack loader SHALL call `transformFile()` for each `.ts`/`.tsx`/`.js`/`.jsx` file, using the cached manifest from the plugin's analysis pass. Files with no extractable components SHALL pass through unchanged.
+
+#### Scenario: File with extractable components
+
+- **WHEN** the loader processes a source file that contains builder chain components listed in the manifest
+- **THEN** it SHALL return the transformed source with builder chains replaced by `createComponent()` calls and a CSS import injected
+
+#### Scenario: File with no components
+
+- **WHEN** the loader processes a source file that has no components in the manifest
+- **THEN** it SHALL return the original source unchanged without calling `transformFile()`
+
+#### Scenario: Loader runs before other transforms
+
+- **WHEN** webpack processes source files through the loader chain
+- **THEN** the Animus loader SHALL execute with `enforce: 'pre'` to see original source before Babel/SWC transformation
+
+### Requirement: Runtime-agnostic subprocess execution
+
+The subprocess model SHALL be replaced by direct NAPI calls for system loading. The `loadSystemModule()` NAPI function handles system module loading internally via OXC + rquickjs — no subprocess or external runtime detection needed for this path. No subprocess-related references SHALL remain in source comments.
+
+#### Scenario: System loading via NAPI
+
+- **WHEN** the next-plugin needs to load the system module during `runFullPipeline()`
+- **THEN** it SHALL call `loadSystemModule(systemPath, rootDir)` from `@animus-ui/extract` and use the returned `SystemConfig` fields directly
+
+#### Scenario: No runtime detection for system loading
+
+- **WHEN** `loadSystemModule()` is used for system loading
+- **THEN** no `bun` or `node` runtime detection SHALL be required — execution happens in-process via the NAPI binary
+
+#### Scenario: No subprocess references in comments
+
+- **WHEN** next-plugin source is searched for "subprocess"
+- **THEN** zero matches SHALL be found in source comments (JSDoc and inline)
+
+### Requirement: Verbose timing display in next-plugin
+
+When verbose mode is enabled, the next-plugin SHALL display hierarchical per-phase timing after extraction completes, using the same waterfall format as the vite-plugin. The zero-cost timer gate SHALL ensure no overhead when verbose is off.
+
+#### Scenario: Verbose build shows hierarchical breakdown
+
+- **WHEN** `verbose: true` is configured and a build triggers extraction
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL log the hierarchical waterfall showing JS phases with nested Rust PipelineTiming phases, matching the vite-plugin format
+
+#### Scenario: Non-verbose mode unchanged
+
+- **WHEN** `verbose` is false or not configured
+- **THEN** no timing waterfall SHALL be displayed and no `performance.now()` calls SHALL occur
+
+### Requirement: Incremental HMR with cache-hit optimization
+
+The next-plugin `handleWatchUpdate` SHALL use a file cache with content hashing to avoid re-reading unchanged files. On watch update, only changed files SHALL send full source across the NAPI boundary — cache-hit files SHALL send empty source.
+
+#### Scenario: Unchanged files not re-serialized
+
+- **WHEN** a single file changes during dev watch
+- **THEN** only the changed file's source SHALL be included in the NAPI file entries
+- **AND** all other files SHALL send empty source strings with their cached content hash
+
+#### Scenario: Cache populated at first build
+
+- **WHEN** `runFullPipeline()` completes
+- **THEN** all discovered files SHALL be stored in the file cache with their content hash and source

+# orchestration-architecture Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+Designate the single root orchestrator that owns the monorepo's workspace task DAG, content-addressed task caching, library packing, application bundling, unified lint/format/typecheck, and unified test runner. This capability establishes the singularity invariant (exactly one orchestrator owns these concerns), names Vite+ (`vp` CLI) as the chosen orchestrator instance, defines the migration trigger criteria for cutover from the current bun-based binding, and pins the invariants that any orchestrator binding SHALL preserve (loud-fail atomic-tier preconditions, Change-Type Map authoritativeness, dependency-derived build ordering, dist-staleness check pattern, atomic-tier isolation, Rust-pipeline exclusion, `.tool-versions` bun pin, follow-on policy decomposition).
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Single Orchestrator Surface
+
+The animus monorepo SHALL designate exactly one root orchestrator that owns the following concerns: workspace task DAG, content-addressed task caching, library packing, application bundling, unified lint/format/typecheck, unified test runner. The orchestrator's CLI surface SHALL be the single canonical entry point for task invocation at the repository root, accessible identically to humans, agents, and CI.
+
+The orchestrator's identity and CLI surface SHALL be specified in a separate per-binding policy change (e.g., `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run`). This requirement establishes the singularity invariant — multiple orchestrators competing for ownership of the same concern SHALL NOT exist.
+
+#### Scenario: Single orchestrator owns task dispatch
+
+- **WHEN** a developer or CI agent invokes any verification, build, test, lint, or pack task at the repository root
+- **THEN** the invocation goes through the single designated orchestrator binary (or its equivalent shell entry point during transition)
+- **AND** no parallel orchestrator binary owns the same concern
+
+### Requirement: Designated Orchestrator
+
+The repository SHALL designate **Vite+** (`vp` CLI, https://viteplus.dev) as the chosen orchestrator instance. Once any cutover follow-on lands, the designation SHALL be recorded in root `CLAUDE.md` documenting: the version constraint (initially Vite+ alpha or later), the rationale (in-ecosystem with Vite/Vitest/Rolldown/tsdown; bun support shipped; MIT licensed), and the swap-out criteria.
+
+Any orchestrator satisfying every requirement in this capability spec MAY replace Vite+ via a separate rebind change. The designation is one valid choice, not an immutable identity.
+
+#### Scenario: Orchestrator designation is documented
+
+- **WHEN** a developer or agent reads root `CLAUDE.md` after the first cutover follow-on lands
+- **THEN** the orchestrator's name, version-floor, rationale, and swap-out criteria are documented in a single section
+
+### Requirement: Migration Trigger Criteria
+
+Cutover from the current bun-based binding to Vite+ SHALL be gated on either of two criteria:
+
+- **Criterion A**: Vite+ reaching general availability (GA) per the official VoidZero release channel.
+- **Criterion B**: Per-slice maintainer-signed risk-acceptance documented in the corresponding follow-on `proposal.md`. The risk-acceptance MUST surface a written exposure assessment covering the alpha-status risk for that specific cutover slice.
+
+A cutover follow-on that does not satisfy at least one criterion SHALL NOT be merged.
+
+#### Scenario: Pre-GA cutover requires risk-acceptance
+
+- **WHEN** a follow-on cutover change is proposed before Vite+ reaches GA
+- **THEN** its `proposal.md` SHALL include a `## Risk Acceptance` section signed by the repo maintainer
+- **AND** the section SHALL document the specific alpha-status exposure for the cutover slice
+
+#### Scenario: Post-GA cutover does not require risk-acceptance
+
+- **WHEN** a follow-on cutover change is proposed after Vite+ reaches GA
+- **THEN** the risk-acceptance section is OPTIONAL
+- **AND** the GA status SHALL be referenced in the proposal
+
+### Requirement: Loud-Fail Atomic-Tier Preconditions Survive Orchestrator Swap
+
+Any orchestrator binding SHALL preserve the atomic-tier loud-fail precondition contract defined in the `verification-tier-policy` spec. The contract requires: (a) precondition checks fire BEFORE the tier's primary work; (b) failure emits a stderr line of the shape `ERROR: <what's missing or stale>. Run: <exact command>`; (c) failure exits with non-zero status; (d) preconditions MUST NOT trigger upstream rebuilds.
+
+The shared precondition helper at `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` (or its successor under any orchestrator binding) SHALL remain the single authoritative implementation of these checks. If an orchestrator-native equivalent emerges (e.g., a Vite Task hook), it MAY replace the shell helper provided every check is preserved with identical semantics. Until a native equivalent demonstrably preserves all checks, the orchestrator SHALL invoke the existing shell scripts as task bodies.
+
+#### Scenario: Orchestrator binding preserves loud-fail shape
+
+- **WHEN** any orchestrator binding implements an atomic tier (e.g., `verify:canary`)
+- **AND** the upstream NAPI binary is missing
+- **THEN** the binding emits a stderr line matching `ERROR: NAPI binary missing. Run: <command-to-build-NAPI>`
+- **AND** exits with a non-zero status
+- **AND** does NOT trigger a NAPI rebuild
+
+#### Scenario: Shell helper survives until orchestrator-native equivalent ships
+
+- **WHEN** an orchestrator binding is proposed
+- **AND** the orchestrator does not provide a native hook that preserves every `_preconditions.sh` check
+- **THEN** the binding SHALL invoke `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh` as the task body for tiers that require preconditions
+- **AND** the shell helper remains in the repository unchanged
+
+### Requirement: Change-Type Map Survives Orchestrator Swap
+
+The Change-Type Map in root `CLAUDE.md` (mandated by `verification-tier-policy`) SHALL be preserved through any orchestrator binding swap. Each cutover follow-on that changes a tier invocation SHALL update the Change-Type Map's `Run` column in the SAME change that lands the cutover, keeping the map as the authoritative agent-facing instructability surface.
+
+#### Scenario: Cutover updates Change-Type Map atomically
+
+- **WHEN** a cutover follow-on lands (e.g., `migrate-lint-to-vp-check`)
+- **AND** the follow-on changes the invocation surface for `verify:lint`
+- **THEN** the same follow-on edits the Change-Type Map in root `CLAUDE.md`
+- **AND** the map's `Run` column reflects the new invocation
+
+### Requirement: Dependency-Derived Build Ordering Survives Orchestrator Swap
+
+The dependency-derived build ordering invariant defined in `workspace-build-ordering` SHALL be preserved through any orchestrator binding swap. Adding a new package to the workspace with appropriate `package.json` dependencies SHALL NOT require editing root orchestrator scripts or task definitions to position it correctly in the build graph.
+
+#### Scenario: New package builds in correct position without orchestrator config edit
+
+- **WHEN** a new package is added with appropriate `dependencies` in its `package.json`
+- **AND** the orchestrator's full-build task is invoked
+- **THEN** the package builds in its correct topological position
+- **AND** no root orchestrator script or task config required edits
+
+### Requirement: Dist-Staleness Check Pattern Survives Orchestrator Swap
+
+The dist-staleness check pattern (existence AND mtime-vs-src) defined in `verification-tier-policy` SHALL be preserved through any orchestrator binding swap. Tiers that consume a package's `dist/` at runtime SHALL check both that the dist exists AND that its key artifact's mtime is newer than the package's `src/**`. A stale dist SHALL surface as a precondition failure with the same loud-fail message shape.
+
+#### Scenario: Stale dist surfaces as precondition failure under any binding
+
+- **WHEN** a tier requires a fresh `packages/<pkg>/dist/`
+- **AND** the dist exists but the key artifact's mtime is older than `packages/<pkg>/src/**`
+- **THEN** the tier exits non-zero
+- **AND** stderr identifies the dist as stale and includes the rebuild command for that package
+
+### Requirement: Atomic-Tier Isolation Survives Orchestrator Swap
+
+The atomic-tier isolation contract defined in `verification-tier-policy` SHALL be preserved through any orchestrator binding swap. An atomic tier MUST NOT silently rebuild upstream artifacts. If upstream artifacts are missing or stale, the tier SHALL fail with the loud-fail message identifying the upstream rebuild command rather than invoking it.
+
+#### Scenario: Tier does not silently rebuild upstream
+
+- **WHEN** an atomic tier is invoked
+- **AND** an upstream artifact is missing or stale
+- **THEN** the tier exits non-zero with the loud-fail message
+- **AND** the tier does NOT invoke the upstream build
+
+### Requirement: Rust Pipeline Excluded from Orchestrator Scope
+
+The Rust NAPI build for `packages/extract` SHALL remain owned by `cargo` + `@napi-rs/cli` regardless of which orchestrator is bound. Rust unit tests SHALL remain owned by `cargo test`. The orchestrator's task graph MAY include Rust-pipeline tiers as orchestrated invocations of the cargo-based commands, but the orchestrator SHALL NOT replace the underlying Rust toolchain.
+
+This exclusion is a permanent boundary, not a deferral. Specs covering the Rust pipeline (`rust-extraction-pipeline`, `ci-napi-binary-verification`, etc.) SHALL NOT be modified by any orchestrator binding change.
+
+#### Scenario: Rust NAPI build invocation goes through cargo
+
+- **WHEN** the orchestrator's full-build task includes the Rust NAPI build
+- **THEN** the build invokes `napi build --platform --release` (or its `cargo`-equivalent surface)
+- **AND** the orchestrator does NOT attempt to compile Rust source itself
+
+#### Scenario: Rust unit tests go through cargo
+
+- **WHEN** the orchestrator's test task includes Rust unit tests
+- **THEN** the tests invoke `cargo test --lib` (or equivalent)
+- **AND** the orchestrator does NOT attempt to discover or run Rust tests through its TS test runner
+
+### Requirement: Bun Version Pin Survives Orchestrator Swap
+
+The `.tool-versions` file SHALL remain the authoritative bun version pin per `verification-tier-policy`'s "Bun Version Pin" requirement. Any orchestrator binding that introduces its own runtime/package-manager selection mechanism SHALL respect or layer cleanly over `.tool-versions`. If the orchestrator's runtime-selection mechanism conflicts with `.tool-versions`, the conflict SHALL be resolved in favor of `.tool-versions` and the resolution documented in the binding follow-on.
+
+#### Scenario: Orchestrator runtime selection respects .tool-versions
+
+- **WHEN** an orchestrator binding's runtime/PM selection mechanism is invoked at the repository root
+- **THEN** the active bun version matches the content of `.tool-versions`
+- **AND** no manual override is required
+
+### Requirement: Follow-On Policy Decomposition
+
+Cutover from the current bun-based binding to Vite+ SHALL be decomposed into per-slice follow-on policy changes. A single mega-change covering all subcommand cutovers SHALL NOT be merged. The decomposition exists to enable per-slice review, per-slice risk-acceptance, and per-slice rollback.
+
+The follow-on slices SHALL include at minimum:
+
+- A change rebinding the task-graph orchestrator
+- A change rebinding the linter / formatter / typechecker surface
+- A change rebinding the library bundler
+- A change rebinding the test runner
+- A change rebinding (or explicitly preserving shell) the cleaning surface
+
+Each follow-on SHALL satisfy the migration trigger criteria and the invariants defined in this spec before merge.
+
+#### Scenario: Per-slice follow-on lands independently
+
+- **WHEN** a single cutover slice (e.g., the test-runner rebind) is ready to merge
+- **AND** other slices are not yet ready
+- **THEN** the ready slice MAY merge independently
+- **AND** the unmerged slices remain blocked on their own readiness criteria

+# oxc-visitor-scanning Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+TBD - created by archiving change extraction-dedup-and-visitor. Update Purpose after archive.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Visitor-based JSX scanning preserves extraction equivalence
+
+The Visit trait migration SHALL produce byte-for-byte identical extraction output compared to the manual walker implementation for all scanned files.
+
+#### Scenario: System prop scanning equivalence
+
+- **WHEN** `scan_jsx()` is called with any program AST containing JSX elements with system props
+- **THEN** the returned `CustomPropScanResult` (both `static_usages` and `dynamic_usages`) SHALL be identical to the result produced by the pre-migration manual walker
+
+#### Scenario: Usage scanning equivalence
+
+- **WHEN** `scan_jsx_usage()` is called with any program AST containing JSX elements with variant, state, and system props
+- **THEN** the returned `UsageScanResult` SHALL be identical to the result produced by the pre-migration manual walker
+
+#### Scenario: Nested JSX in control flow
+
+- **WHEN** JSX elements appear inside conditional expressions, logical expressions, arrow functions, function expressions, or call expression arguments
+- **THEN** the visitor SHALL reach and process those JSX elements identically to the manual walker
+
+#### Scenario: JSX in object expression values (usage scanner only)
+
+- **WHEN** JSX elements appear inside object expression property values (e.g., component map patterns like `{ h1: (props) => <Heading {...props} /> }`)
+- **THEN** the UsageScanner SHALL walk into those values and discover JSX usages, matching the manual walker's ObjectExpression arm
+
+### Requirement: Visitor structs carry equivalent scanner state
+
+Each visitor struct SHALL hold all state previously passed as function parameters to the manual walker functions.
+
+#### Scenario: SystemPropScanner state
+
+- **WHEN** `SystemPropScanner` is constructed for a `scan_jsx()` call
+- **THEN** it SHALL hold references to `component_props`, `member_expr_bindings`, and own mutable `seen`, `dynamic_seen`, `results`, and `dynamic_results` fields
+
+#### Scenario: UsageScanner state
+
+- **WHEN** `UsageScanner` is constructed for a `scan_jsx_usage()` call
+- **THEN** it SHALL hold references to `component_props`, `component_configs`, `member_expr_bindings`, and own mutable `seen` and `result` fields
+
+### Requirement: Compose walker independence
+
+The compose family scanner SHALL NOT be migrated to the Visit trait.
+
+#### Scenario: Compose walker unchanged
+
+- **WHEN** `scan_compose_families()` is called
+- **THEN** it SHALL use the existing `collect_compose_from_statement` / `collect_compose_from_expression` implementation, not a visitor struct
+
+### Requirement: Span extraction macro
+
+`chain_walker.rs` SHALL define a `get_arg_span!` macro that extracts the `.span` from any `Argument` variant.
+
+#### Scenario: First argument span extraction
+
+- **WHEN** `first_arg_span()` is called on a `CallExpression` with arguments
+- **THEN** it SHALL use `get_arg_span!` to extract the span, producing identical results to the pre-migration 12-arm match
+
+#### Scenario: Second argument span extraction
+
+- **WHEN** `second_arg_span_fn()` is called on a `CallExpression` with two or more arguments
+- **THEN** it SHALL use `get_arg_span!` to extract the span, producing identical results to the pre-migration 12-arm match
+
+### Requirement: Test data construction macros
+
+Test modules SHALL define `map!{}` and `set!{}` macros for declarative FxHashMap/FxHashSet construction.
+
+#### Scenario: Map macro produces FxHashMap
+
+- **WHEN** `map!{ "key" => "value" }` is used in a test
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce a `FxHashMap<String, _>` with string keys converted via `.to_string()`
+
+#### Scenario: Set macro produces FxHashSet
+
+- **WHEN** `set!["a", "b", "c"]` is used in a test
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce a `FxHashSet<String>` with values converted via `.to_string()`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Package resolution map
+
+The extraction pipeline SHALL accept a package resolution map that maps package specifiers to their resolved entry file paths. Non-relative import sources that match a key in this map SHALL be resolved to the mapped file path, enabling the import resolver to trace bindings through package boundaries.
+
+#### Scenario: Resolve package import
+
+- **WHEN** a file imports `{ Box } from '@animus-ui/components'` and the package resolution map contains `{ "@animus-ui/components": "packages/ui/src/index.ts" }`
+- **THEN** the import resolver SHALL resolve `Box` by looking up exports in `packages/ui/src/index.ts` and following re-export chains to the definition file
+
+#### Scenario: Unmatched package import
+
+- **WHEN** a file imports `{ Link } from 'next/link'` and the package resolution map does NOT contain `next/link`
+- **THEN** the import resolver SHALL return None for this binding — it is external and not an animus component
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple packages resolved
+
+- **WHEN** the resolution map contains `{ "@animus-ui/components": "packages/ui/src/index.ts", "@animus-ui/core": "packages/core/src/index.ts" }`
+- **THEN** imports from both packages SHALL be resolved to their respective entry files
+
+### Requirement: Package source file inclusion
+
+When a package is resolved to an entry file, ALL source files in that package's directory tree SHALL be included in the analysis file set. This ensures the import resolver can follow re-export chains from the entry file to the actual component definition files.
+
+#### Scenario: Entry file re-exports from internal files
+
+- **WHEN** `packages/ui/src/index.ts` re-exports `{ Box } from './elements/Box'`
+- **AND** `packages/ui/src/elements/Box.tsx` is included in the file entries
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL trace `Box` from `index.ts` → `elements/Box.tsx` and find the chain definition
+
+#### Scenario: Internal files not included
+
+- **WHEN** `packages/ui/src/index.ts` is in the file entries but `packages/ui/src/elements/Box.tsx` is NOT
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL NOT be able to trace `Box` to its definition — the re-export chain is broken and the binding is treated as unresolvable

+## Purpose
+
+Per-component CSS fragment generation for the 4 splittable layers (base, variants, compounds, states). Fragments enable targeted HMR splice, granular cache invalidation via reverse provenance, and fine-grained manifest introspection — while preserving cascade correctness through topological ordering.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Per-component CSS fragment generation
+
+The Rust CSS generator SHALL retain per-component CSS fragments for the 4 splittable layers (base, variants, compounds, states) during generation. Each fragment SHALL be keyed by component_id and contain only that component's CSS contribution to the layer. Fragments SHALL be stored in topological order (matching `reconciled_order`) to preserve cascade correctness.
+
+#### Scenario: Component with base and variants produces fragments
+
+- **WHEN** a component `Button` has base styles and two variant props
+- **THEN** fragments SHALL contain an entry for `Button`'s component_id in `base` (with the base rule block) and in `variants` (with variant option rule blocks)
+- **AND** the `compounds` and `states` entries for `Button` SHALL be absent (not empty strings)
+
+#### Scenario: Fragment concatenation equals CssSheets
+
+- **WHEN** all base fragments are concatenated in insertion order
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be byte-identical to `CssSheets.base`
+- **AND** the same invariant SHALL hold for variants, compounds, and states
+
+#### Scenario: Topological ordering preserved
+
+- **WHEN** component `PrimaryButton` extends `Button`
+- **THEN** `Button`'s fragment SHALL appear before `PrimaryButton`'s fragment in the base vec
+- **AND** this ordering SHALL match the existing `reconciled_order` used by `generate_css_sheets_ordered()`
+
+#### Scenario: Empty layers produce no fragment entries
+
+- **WHEN** no components have compound styles
+- **THEN** the compounds fragment collection SHALL be empty (zero entries)
+
+### Requirement: Single-pass fragment generation
+
+The CSS generator SHALL produce fragments for all 4 splittable layers in a single iteration over the component list, replacing the current 4-pass `generate_layer_content_slice()` approach.
+
+#### Scenario: All layers populated in one pass
+
+- **WHEN** `generate_css_sheets_ordered()` is called with N components
+- **THEN** the component list SHALL be iterated exactly once, producing base, variants, compounds, and states fragments for each component in a single traversal
+
+### Requirement: Fragment lookup index
+
+The fragment storage SHALL maintain a side index (`FxHashMap<String, usize>`) mapping component_id to vec position for O(1) lookup. This enables HMR splice operations without scanning.
+
+#### Scenario: Lookup by component_id
+
+- **WHEN** a plugin needs the base CSS for component `src/Button.tsx::Button`
+- **THEN** the side index SHALL return the vec index in O(1) time
+- **AND** the fragment at that index SHALL contain the component's base CSS
+
+### Requirement: PerComponentSheets serialization in manifest
+
+The `UniverseManifest` SHALL include a `component_fragments` field containing a `HashMap<String, PerComponentSheets>` where `PerComponentSheets` has optional fields for each splittable layer. Empty layers SHALL be omitted from serialization via `skip_serializing_if`.
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest JSON includes fragments
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` returns the manifest JSON
+- **THEN** the JSON SHALL include a `component_fragments` object keyed by component_id, with each value containing only non-empty layer fields (`base`, `variants`, `compounds`, `states`)
+
+#### Scenario: Component with only base styles
+
+- **WHEN** a component has base styles but no variants, compounds, or states
+- **THEN** its `component_fragments` entry SHALL contain only `{ "base": "..." }` — no null or empty string fields
+
+### Requirement: Reverse adjacency index for extension chains
+
+The manifest SHALL include a `reverse_provenance` field mapping each component_id to its direct children (components that extend it). This enables transitive cache invalidation when a parent component's CSS changes.
+
+#### Scenario: Parent with two children
+
+- **WHEN** `PrimaryButton` and `DangerButton` both extend `Button`
+- **THEN** `reverse_provenance["Button_id"]` SHALL contain both `PrimaryButton_id` and `DangerButton_id`
+
+#### Scenario: Leaf component with no children
+
+- **WHEN** a component is never extended by another component
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT appear as a key in `reverse_provenance`
+
+#### Scenario: Transitive invalidation
+
+- **WHEN** `Button` changes and `PrimaryButton` extends `Button` and `SpecialPrimary` extends `PrimaryButton`
+- **THEN** a BFS traversal of `reverse_provenance` starting from `Button` SHALL reach both `PrimaryButton` and `SpecialPrimary`

+### Requirement: Per-property skip on non-static values
+
+The style evaluator SHALL skip individual properties whose values cannot be statically evaluated, rather than bailing the entire style object. Skipped properties SHALL NOT appear in the extracted CSS. All other properties in the same object SHALL be extracted normally.
+
+#### Scenario: Function call in one property, static values in others
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ background: arr.join(''), color: 'red', p: 16 }`
+- **THEN** `background` SHALL be skipped, and the result SHALL contain `{ "color": "red", "p": 16 }`
+
+#### Scenario: Variable reference in one property
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ bg: dynamicColor, fontSize: 14, display: 'flex' }`
+- **THEN** `bg` SHALL be skipped, and the result SHALL contain `{ "fontSize": 14, "display": "flex" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Template literal with expression in one property
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes ``{ animation: `${keyframeName} 2s`, opacity: 1 }``
+- **THEN** `animation` SHALL be skipped, and the result SHALL contain `{ "opacity": 1 }`
+
+#### Scenario: Member expression in one property
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ color: theme.colors.primary, padding: '8px' }`
+- **THEN** `color` SHALL be skipped, and the result SHALL contain `{ "padding": "8px" }`
+
+#### Scenario: All properties non-static
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ bg: dynamicA, color: dynamicB }`
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be an empty object `{}` with skip warnings for both properties
+
+#### Scenario: Component still gets class name with partial extraction
+
+- **WHEN** a chain has `ds.styles({ background: arr.join(''), color: 'red', p: 16 }).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL be marked `extractable: true`, receive a class name, and produce CSS containing `color` and `padding` declarations but NOT `background`
+
+### Requirement: Structural errors still bail the entire object
+
+Spread elements, computed property keys, and getter/setter properties SHALL still cause `eval_object_expr` to bail with an error for the entire object. These errors affect the shape of the object — the evaluator cannot determine the complete set of properties.
+
+#### Scenario: Spread element bails entire object
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ ...baseStyles, color: 'red' }`
+- **THEN** the entire object SHALL bail (not just skip the spread) — `color: 'red'` is NOT extracted
+
+#### Scenario: Computed property key bails entire object
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ [dynamicKey]: 'value', color: 'red' }`
+- **THEN** the entire object SHALL bail — the evaluator cannot know what `dynamicKey` resolves to
+
+#### Scenario: Getter bails entire object
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ get color() { return 'red' } }`
+- **THEN** the entire object SHALL bail — getters are not static declarations
+
+### Requirement: Recursive skip in nested objects
+
+Per-property skip SHALL apply recursively within nested objects (pseudo-selector blocks, responsive value objects). A non-static value inside a nested block SHALL skip only that inner property.
+
+#### Scenario: Non-static value inside pseudo-selector block
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ '&:hover': { color: dynamicVar, bg: 'red' } }`
+- **THEN** inside the `&:hover` block, `color` SHALL be skipped and `bg` SHALL be extracted
+
+#### Scenario: Non-static pseudo-selector value (not an object)
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ '&:hover': someFunction(), color: 'red' }`
+- **THEN** `&:hover` SHALL be skipped as a property (its value is non-static), and `color` SHALL be extracted
+
+#### Scenario: Spread inside nested object skips the parent property
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ '&:hover': { ...hoverOverrides, bg: 'red' }, color: 'blue' }`
+- **THEN** the `&:hover` nested object triggers structural bail, which causes the `&:hover` property to be skipped on the parent. `color: 'blue'` SHALL still be extracted.
+
+### Requirement: Skip diagnostics in extraction output
+
+Each skipped property SHALL produce a diagnostic warning in `ExtractionResult.errors` with a `[skip]` prefix. The warning SHALL include the component binding name, the property name, and the reason for skipping.
+
+#### Scenario: Skip warning format
+
+- **WHEN** property `background` is skipped in component `Hero` due to a function call
+- **THEN** `ExtractionResult.errors` SHALL contain `"[skip] Hero: property 'background' — function call (non-static)"`
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple skipped properties produce multiple warnings
+
+- **WHEN** component `Card` has three non-static properties: `bg`, `boxShadow`, and `animation`
+- **THEN** `ExtractionResult.errors` SHALL contain three `[skip]` entries, one for each property
+
+#### Scenario: Skip warnings do not prevent extraction
+
+- **WHEN** a component has skip warnings but also has static properties
+- **THEN** `ExtractionResult.extractable` SHALL be `true` and `ExtractionResult.css` SHALL contain the static properties

+## Purpose
+
+The `_integration` test suite SHALL exercise the complete production extraction path — build system+theme → serialize → read real fixture files → `analyzeProject()` → `resolveTransformPlaceholders()` → `applyUnitFallback()` — and assert the final CSS plus the structural shape of the returned manifest. Fixtures SHALL be real `.tsx` files using the builder chain (no synthetic string source), every step SHALL call the real function in the real package (no orchestrator wrappers), and manifest invariants (shape, dynamic-prop boundaries, system-prop map) SHALL be covered alongside CSS assertions.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Serialize contract round-trip
+
+The integration test suite SHALL verify that output from `ds.serialize()` and `tokens.serialize()` on a real system+theme built with the builder API constitutes valid input to `analyzeProject()`. The NAPI call MUST succeed (not throw) and return a parseable JSON manifest. All serialization tests SHALL live in `serialization.test.ts` (not `contract.test.ts`).
+
+#### Scenario: System serialization produces valid NAPI input
+
+- **WHEN** a system is built with `createSystem().withGroups(standardGroups).build()` and serialized via `ds.serialize()`
+- **THEN** `propConfig` and `groupRegistry` are valid JSON strings accepted by `analyzeProject()` without error
+
+#### Scenario: Theme serialization produces valid NAPI input
+
+- **WHEN** a theme is built with `createTheme()` using colors, spacing, and breakpoint scales and serialized via `tokens.serialize()`
+- **THEN** `scalesJson`, `variableMapJson`, and `contextualVarsJson` are valid JSON strings accepted by `analyzeProject()` without error
+
+#### Scenario: Contract round-trip produces non-empty CSS
+
+- **WHEN** serialized system+theme output is fed to `analyzeProject()` with at least one extractable component fixture
+- **THEN** the returned manifest contains non-empty `css` with `@layer` declarations
+
+### Requirement: Full pipeline end-to-end test
+
+The integration test suite SHALL exercise the complete production extraction path: build system+theme → serialize → read fixture files → `analyzeProject()` → `resolveTransformPlaceholders()` → `applyUnitFallback()` → assert final CSS. Every step MUST call the real function from the real package. All extraction integration tests SHALL live in `extraction.test.ts` (not `pipeline.test.ts`).
+
+#### Scenario: Button component extracts through full pipeline
+
+- **WHEN** a fixture button component using variants (size, intent) and states (hover, disabled) is extracted through the full pipeline
+- **THEN** the final CSS contains the correct base styles, variant styles in `@layer variants`, state styles in `@layer states`, and responsive media queries where applicable
+- **AND** the token invariant guard confirms no raw unresolved token names in the output
+
+#### Scenario: Compound variants extract through full pipeline
+
+- **WHEN** a fixture component with compound variants (e.g., size:small + intent:danger) is extracted through the full pipeline
+- **THEN** the final CSS contains compound variant rules in `@layer compounds` that combine the specified variant conditions
+- **AND** the token invariant guard confirms no raw unresolved token names in the output
+
+#### Scenario: Transform placeholders resolve to computed values
+
+- **WHEN** a fixture component uses a named transform (e.g., `size` transform) and is extracted through the full pipeline
+- **THEN** `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders in the NAPI output are resolved to computed CSS values by `resolveTransformPlaceholders()` using the live transform functions from `ds.serialize().transforms`
+
+#### Scenario: Unit fallback applies to bare numerics
+
+- **WHEN** the full pipeline produces CSS with bare numeric values on length properties
+- **THEN** `applyUnitFallback()` appends `px` to those values in the final output
+
+#### Scenario: System props extract shared utility classes
+
+- **WHEN** a fixture component uses system props (e.g., `<Box p={4} m={2}>`)
+- **THEN** the manifest's `system_prop_map` contains shared utility class entries for the used props
+
+### Requirement: Composition integration test
+
+The integration test suite SHALL include tests that verify `compose()` components can be extracted through the full pipeline, producing correct CSS for composed slot components.
+
+#### Scenario: Composed component extracts slot CSS
+
+- **WHEN** a fixture component uses `compose()` with Root and Child slots sharing a variant
+- **THEN** the full pipeline produces CSS containing class rules for each slot
+- **AND** the CSS contains `@layer` declarations
+
+#### Scenario: Shared variant props produce consistent CSS
+
+- **WHEN** a composed component has shared variant props (e.g., size applied to both Root and Child)
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS contains variant classes for both slots
+- **AND** variant values resolve through theme scales (not raw strings)
+
+#### Scenario: Compose with strict Root convention
+
+- **WHEN** integration test fixtures define composed families
+- **THEN** the Root slot SHALL use the literal key `"Root"` (PascalCase), not lowercase `"root"`
+
+### Requirement: Extraction test parametrization
+
+The extraction integration test SHALL use `test.each()` to parametrize variant resolution assertions where multiple variant options validate the same behavior.
+
+#### Scenario: Size variant resolution parametrized
+
+- **WHEN** testing that size variants (small, medium, large) resolve to expected CSS values
+- **THEN** a `test.each()` block SHALL test each size → expected fontSize mapping as separate invocations
+
+#### Scenario: Intent variant resolution parametrized
+
+- **WHEN** testing that intent variants (primary, secondary) resolve to CSS variable references
+- **THEN** a `test.each()` block SHALL test each intent → expected `var(--color-*)` mapping as separate invocations
+
+### Requirement: Fixture files are real builder chain components
+
+All component fixture files used by integration tests MUST be real `.tsx` files that import from `@animus-ui/system` and use the builder chain API (`createSystem()`, `.asElement()`, `.asComponent()`, `.withVariants()`, etc.). Synthetic strings or inline source code SHALL NOT be used.
+
+#### Scenario: Fixture uses real builder API
+
+- **WHEN** a fixture component file is authored for integration tests
+- **THEN** it imports from `@animus-ui/system`, uses the real builder chain, and is a valid TypeScript file parseable by OXC
+
+### Requirement: No pipeline orchestrator wrapper
+
+Integration tests SHALL call `analyzeProject()` and post-processing utilities directly with the same call signature the vite-plugin uses. Tests MUST NOT use a wrapper function that hides the individual pipeline steps.
+
+#### Scenario: Test calls NAPI directly
+
+- **WHEN** an integration test exercises extraction
+- **THEN** it calls `analyzeProject(fileEntriesJson, scalesJson, variableMapJson, contextualVarsJson, propConfig, groupRegistry, packageResolutionJson, devMode, prefix)` directly — not through an intermediary orchestrator
+
+### Requirement: Manifest shape validation test
+
+The `_integration` test suite SHALL include a dedicated test file (`manifest-shape.test.ts`) that validates the structural shape and internal consistency of the `UniverseManifest` returned by `analyzeProject()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Component descriptors are complete
+
+- **WHEN** the manifest from `analyzeProject()` is inspected
+- **THEN** every component in `components` SHALL have non-empty `file`, `binding`, `class_name`, `replacement`, `terminal`, and `tag` fields
+
+#### Scenario: Files-to-components mapping is consistent
+
+- **WHEN** `manifest.files` is inspected
+- **THEN** every component_id in the values SHALL exist as a key in `manifest.components`
+
+#### Scenario: Provenance is reciprocal
+
+- **WHEN** `manifest.reverse_provenance` contains parent_id → [child_ids]
+- **THEN** each child component's `extends_from` SHALL equal the parent_id
+- **AND** each component with `extends_from` set SHALL appear in `reverse_provenance[extends_from]`
+
+#### Scenario: Fragments are consistent with components
+
+- **WHEN** `manifest.component_fragments` is inspected
+- **THEN** every key SHALL exist in `manifest.components`
+- **AND** extracted components SHALL have at least one non-empty fragment layer
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic props boundary test
+
+The `_integration` test suite SHALL assert that components with only static literal prop values produce zero dynamic_props entries, and components with non-static values produce correct dynamic prop metadata.
+
+#### Scenario: Fully static component has no dynamic props
+
+- **WHEN** a fixture component uses only static string literals for all style values
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL contain zero entries in `dynamic_props` for that component's prop names
+- **AND** all style properties SHALL appear in the component's CSS output
+
+#### Scenario: Mixed static/dynamic component produces correct split
+
+- **WHEN** a fixture component has some static literal values and some non-static values (identifiers, function calls)
+- **THEN** static values SHALL appear in the component's CSS output
+- **AND** non-static values SHALL appear in `dynamic_props` with `var_name`, `slot_class`, and `property` fields
+- **AND** the bailed properties SHALL NOT disappear — they MUST produce CSS variable slot rules in `@layer anm-system`
+
+### Requirement: System prop map validation
+
+The `_integration` test suite SHALL assert that `system_prop_map` contains entries for system props used in fixture JSX.
+
+#### Scenario: Used system props appear in map
+
+- **WHEN** a fixture component's JSX includes system prop usage (e.g., `<Box p={4}>`)
+- **THEN** `manifest.system_prop_map` SHALL contain an entry for that prop name
+- **AND** the value mapping SHALL map to class names prefixed with `animus-u-` (the Animus utility-class prefix; the original proposal's `anm-` was stale — that's the layer prefix, distinct from the class prefix)
+
+### Requirement: Integration pipeline invokes production NAPI signature
+
+The shared `runPipeline` helper in `_integration/__tests__/run-pipeline.ts` SHALL invoke `analyzeProject` with the full production signature used by the vite-plugin adapter, including `selectorAliasesJson` and `selectorOrderJson` derived from the test-system's `toConfig()` output. All integration tests that use `runPipeline` SHALL exercise the same selector-alias code path as the production plugin — no selector-alias-less integration path SHALL exist. This closes the coverage gap that allowed selector-alias-related regressions to ship without integration-tier detection.
+
+#### Scenario: runPipeline passes selector aliases
+
+- **WHEN** an integration test calls `runPipeline(entries)` with the standard test-system fixture
+- **THEN** the NAPI call SHALL receive non-null `selectorAliasesJson` and `selectorOrderJson` sourced from `config.selectorAliases` and `config.selectorOrder`
+
+#### Scenario: runPipeline matches vite-plugin argument arity
+
+- **WHEN** the vite-plugin's `runAnalysis` invokes `analyzeProject` with N arguments
+- **THEN** `runPipeline` SHALL invoke `analyzeProject` with the same N arguments in the same order — placeholder nulls are permitted for arguments with no integration-test-side analog (e.g. `pathAliasesJson`), but every argument slot SHALL be passed
+
+#### Scenario: Existing integration tests pass under extended signature
+
+- **WHEN** the existing integration test suite (`extraction.test.ts`, `serialization.test.ts`, `composition.test.ts`, `post-processing.test.ts`, `manifest-shape.test.ts`, `cascade-round-trip.test.ts`, keyframes tests) is re-run after extending `runPipeline`
+- **THEN** every test SHALL pass without modification — the extension SHALL be additive, not behavior-changing, for fixtures that do not exercise selector aliases
+
+### Requirement: Selector-rule fixture matrix registered
+
+The integration test suite SHALL maintain a permanent selector-rule authoring fixture matrix at `_integration/fixtures/components/selector-rules/` covering the authoring cross-product that previously exposed regressions: raw-selector + alias mixes, token references inside shorthand values, compound aliases (e.g. `_selected`), `createElement(bareIdent, ...)` usage patterns, unresolvable tokens (characterization), and full chains (`.styles+_hover+_focusVisible+.variant+.states`). The matrix SHALL serve as regression acceptance criteria. Current-broken behaviors SHALL be expressed as sealed tests paired with skipped acceptance tests, so fixing the underlying bug requires a coordinated edit that prevents silent behavior change.
+
+#### Scenario: Selector-rules fixture directory discoverable
+
+- **WHEN** an integration test requires a selector-rule fixture
+- **THEN** it SHALL be loadable via `readFixtureFile(join(__dirname, '..', 'fixtures', 'components', 'selector-rules'), filename)`
+
+#### Scenario: Top-level fixture walk does not include the subdirectory
+
+- **WHEN** a multi-file test calls `readFixtureFiles(COMPONENTS)` on the top-level `components/` directory
+- **THEN** the walk SHALL NOT recurse into `selector-rules/` — selector-rule fixtures SHALL NOT leak into unrelated multi-file test scope
+
+#### Scenario: Bug seal test locks current broken behavior
+
+- **WHEN** a bug's acceptance test is marked `test.skip('[Bug N] ...')` with the expected-post-fix assertion, paired with a `test('[Bug N seal — current broken behavior]', ...)` that passes today by asserting the broken behavior
+- **THEN** fixing the underlying bug SHALL cause the seal test to fail — requiring a coordinated edit to delete the seal and unskip the acceptance test, preventing silent regression drift

+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Per-phase timing collection in project analyzer
+
+The project analyzer SHALL collect wall-clock duration for each pipeline phase using `std::time::Instant`. Timing SHALL be collected unconditionally (not gated by a flag) because the overhead is negligible (~25ns per measurement point).
+
+#### Scenario: All phases timed
+
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` executes a full extraction
+- **THEN** the returned manifest SHALL contain a `timing` object with millisecond durations for: `parseAndWalk`, `importResolution`, `extensionProvenance`, `topologicalSort`, `chainEvaluation`, `jsxScanning`, `systemPropAggregation`, `usageLedger`, `reconciliation`, `cssGeneration`, `manifestSerialization`
+
+#### Scenario: Sub-millisecond phases report zero
+
+- **WHEN** a phase completes in under 1 millisecond
+- **THEN** its timing value SHALL be `0` (u64 truncation, not rounding)
+
+#### Scenario: Cache-hit files skip parse timing
+
+- **WHEN** Phase 1 encounters cached files that skip parsing
+- **THEN** the `parseAndWalk` duration SHALL reflect only the time spent on cache-miss files (the actual parse work), and `cacheHits` SHALL report the count of skipped files
+
+#### Scenario: Rust timing nests within JS analysis phase
+
+- **WHEN** the JS plugin displays timing in verbose mode
+- **THEN** the Rust `PipelineTiming` phases SHALL be displayed as a nested sub-tree under the JS `analysis.rustExtract` phase, showing the decomposition of NAPI call time
+
+### Requirement: Pipeline metadata alongside timing
+
+The timing object SHALL include contextual metadata that gives meaning to the phase durations.
+
+#### Scenario: File count reported
+
+- **WHEN** extraction completes
+- **THEN** the timing object SHALL include `fileCount` (total files processed) and `cacheHits` (files served from cache)
+
+#### Scenario: Total duration reported
+
+- **WHEN** extraction completes
+- **THEN** the timing object SHALL include `totalMs` representing the wall-clock duration of the entire `analyze_project` call, measured independently of the per-phase sum
+
+### Requirement: Timing struct serialized in UniverseManifest
+
+The `PipelineTiming` struct SHALL serialize as a nested object within the `UniverseManifest` JSON under the key `timing`. The struct SHALL use `#[serde(rename_all = "camelCase")]` for consistent JS-side field names.
+
+#### Scenario: Timing present in manifest JSON
+
+- **WHEN** the vite-plugin or next-plugin parses the `analyzeProject()` return value
+- **THEN** `manifest.timing` SHALL be an object with all phase duration fields and metadata fields
+
+#### Scenario: Timing does not affect existing manifest consumers
+
+- **WHEN** existing code reads `manifest.components`, `manifest.css`, or any other field
+- **THEN** behavior SHALL be unchanged — the `timing` field is additive

+## Purpose
+
+The `animusExtract()` plugin SHALL expose a `verify` option that runs structural self-checks in `buildStart` after analysis completes. Self-verification provides a fast, in-plugin check that extraction succeeded (non-empty component CSS, correct layer ordering, present `:root` block, no `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders) so that misconfigured consumers surface problems immediately rather than at post-build assertion time.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Dev server self-verification flag
+
+The `animusExtract()` plugin SHALL accept a `verify` option (default: `false`) that runs structural self-checks during `buildStart` after analysis completes.
+
+#### Scenario: Verify option accepted
+
+- **WHEN** `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts', verify: true })` is configured
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL run self-verification checks after `buildStart` analysis
+
+#### Scenario: Verify disabled by default
+
+- **WHEN** `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })` is configured without `verify`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT run self-verification checks
+
+### Requirement: Verification checks
+
+When `verify: true`, the plugin SHALL validate the following after `buildStart` completes:
+
+#### Scenario: Component CSS is non-empty
+
+- **WHEN** verification runs
+- **THEN** the resolved component CSS SHALL be non-empty (at least one component extracted)
+- **AND** failure SHALL log `[animus:verify] No component CSS produced — check system file and include patterns`
+
+#### Scenario: Layer ordering is correct
+
+- **WHEN** verification runs
+- **THEN** the assembled CSS SHALL have layers in correct positional order: declaration before variables, variables before globals, globals before component CSS
+- **AND** failure SHALL log `[animus:verify] CSS layer ordering violated — {details}`
+
+#### Scenario: Variable CSS contains root block
+
+- **WHEN** verification runs
+- **THEN** the variable CSS SHALL contain a `:root` block
+- **AND** failure SHALL log `[animus:verify] No :root variable block found in variable CSS`
+
+#### Scenario: No transform placeholders
+
+- **WHEN** verification runs
+- **THEN** no CSS output SHALL contain `__TRANSFORM__` strings
+- **AND** failure SHALL log `[animus:verify] Unresolved __TRANSFORM__ placeholders found in CSS`
+
+### Requirement: Verification failure behavior
+
+Verification failures SHALL respect the existing `strict` option.
+
+#### Scenario: Strict mode throws
+
+- **WHEN** `verify: true` and `strict: true` and a verification check fails
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL throw an error (halting the build)
+
+#### Scenario: Non-strict mode warns
+
+- **WHEN** `verify: true` and `strict` is false or unset and a verification check fails
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL log warnings but continue the build

+# primitive-upgrades Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+TBD - created by archiving change doc-v4-patterns. Update Purpose after archive.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Callout deprecated variant
+
+The Callout component SHALL support a `deprecated` variant with visually distinct styling to indicate deprecated APIs or patterns.
+
+#### Scenario: Deprecated callout renders with dashed border
+
+- **WHEN** a Callout renders with `variant="deprecated"`
+- **THEN** the left border uses a dashed style (not solid) with violet/purple color tokens
+
+#### Scenario: Deprecated icon and title use violet color
+
+- **WHEN** a deprecated Callout renders with a title
+- **THEN** the icon and title text use the violet color scale, matching the border
+
+### Requirement: ParamTable required dot
+
+The ParamTable SHALL use a small visual dot indicator for required parameters instead of text.
+
+#### Scenario: Required param shows accent dot
+
+- **WHEN** a parameter has default value "required"
+- **THEN** a 5px accent-colored circle renders after the parameter name instead of the text "required"
+
+#### Scenario: Optional params show default value unchanged
+
+- **WHEN** a parameter has a non-"required" default value
+- **THEN** the default value renders as dim mono text (existing behavior, unchanged)
+
+### Requirement: SyntaxBlock file-type dot
+
+The SyntaxBlock title bar SHALL display a colored dot indicating the file type when a title is provided.
+
+#### Scenario: TypeScript file shows blue dot
+
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with a title and language "tsx" or "typescript"
+- **THEN** an 8px blue dot appears before the title text
+
+#### Scenario: CSS file shows green dot
+
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders with a title and language "css"
+- **THEN** an 8px green dot appears before the title text
+
+#### Scenario: No dot without title
+
+- **WHEN** SyntaxBlock renders without a title (no chrome)
+- **THEN** no file-type dot is rendered
+
+### Requirement: APIBlock unified container
+
+The system SHALL provide an APIBlock component that wraps TypeSignature and ParamTable into a single bordered unit.
+
+#### Scenario: Signature renders as header, table as body
+
+- **WHEN** APIBlock receives signature props and params
+- **THEN** TypeSignature renders as the top section and ParamTable renders below it, sharing a single outer border
+
+#### Scenario: Individual borders suppressed
+
+- **WHEN** TypeSignature and ParamTable render inside APIBlock
+- **THEN** their individual borders are suppressed by the container's CSS, preventing double borders

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Shared system+theme fixture built from real builder API
+
+The test infrastructure SHALL have a SINGLE shared system+theme definition used by both the extract canary tests and the integration test workspace. The definition SHALL live in `packages/extract/tests/test-system.ts` and be importable by `packages/_integration/`. Tests MUST import pre-serialized data from this fixture rather than maintaining JSON blobs by hand or duplicate theme definitions.
+
+#### Scenario: Fixture builds and serializes system
+
+- **WHEN** the shared fixture module is imported
+- **THEN** it exports `config` containing `propConfig` (string), `groupRegistry` (string), and `transforms` (Record of live functions) — the output of `ds.serialize()`
+
+#### Scenario: Fixture builds and serializes theme
+
+- **WHEN** the shared fixture module is imported
+- **THEN** it exports `theme` containing `scalesJson`, `variableMapJson`, `variableCss`, and `contextualVarsJson` (all strings) — the output of `tokens.serialize()`
+
+#### Scenario: Fixture theme covers representative scales
+
+- **WHEN** the fixture theme is built
+- **THEN** it includes at minimum: a color scale, a spacing scale, a sizing scale, and breakpoint definitions — sufficient to exercise variant, responsive, and token-resolution extraction paths
+
+### Requirement: Canary test theme fixtures migrated to programmatic
+
+The canary tests in `packages/extract/tests/` SHALL replace their hand-maintained theme JSON with output from `tokens.serialize()` called on a real theme built with the builder API. The config fixture (`serialize-config.ts`) pattern already uses `ds.serialize()` — extend this pattern to theme data.
+
+#### Scenario: Canary tests use serialize() output for theme
+
+- **WHEN** canary tests execute
+- **THEN** the `themeJson` (scales), `variableMapJson`, and `contextualVarsJson` arguments passed to `extract()` and `analyzeProject()` come from `tokens.serialize()` on a real theme — not from hand-maintained string literals
+
+#### Scenario: Canary test assertions remain valid after migration
+
+- **WHEN** hand-maintained theme JSON is replaced with `tokens.serialize()` output
+- **THEN** all existing canary test assertions continue to pass, or are updated to reflect the correct serialization output (not weakened or removed)
+
+### Requirement: File entry helper reads real fixture files
+
+The integration test workspace SHALL include a helper function that reads `.tsx` fixture files from disk and produces `FileEntry[]` in the format `analyzeProject()` expects: `{ path: string, source: string }`. This replaces the vite-plugin's file discovery with a test-appropriate equivalent.
+
+#### Scenario: File entries built from fixture directory
+
+- **WHEN** the helper reads fixture component files from `fixtures/components/`
+- **THEN** it returns an array of `{ path, source }` objects where `path` is relative to the fixture root and `source` is the full file content

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Project-level analysis NAPI entry point
+
+The Rust crate SHALL export `analyze_project(file_entries_json, theme_json, config_json, group_registry_json, package_resolution_json) -> String` that performs full-codebase static analysis including package-name import resolution and returns a JSON UniverseManifest. The `package_resolution_json` parameter is a JSON map of package specifiers to resolved entry file paths.
+
+#### Scenario: Analysis with package resolution
+
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project` is called with a package resolution map `{ "@animus-ui/components": "packages/ui/src/index.ts" }` and files include both the project source and the resolved package source
+- **THEN** components imported via `@animus-ui/components` SHALL be resolved to their definition files, enabling correct provenance tracking, JSX usage detection, and reconciliation
+
+#### Scenario: Analysis without package resolution (backward compatible)
+
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project` is called with an empty package resolution map `{}`
+- **THEN** behavior SHALL be identical to the current implementation — package-name imports are treated as external and bindings through them are unresolvable
+
+#### Scenario: Package resolution map passed to import resolver
+
+- **WHEN** the project analyzer builds the import resolver's path resolution callback
+- **THEN** the callback SHALL check the package resolution map for non-relative import sources before returning None
+
+### Requirement: Per-file transform from manifest
+
+The Rust crate SHALL export a NAPI function `transform_file(source: String, filename: String, manifest_json: String) -> TransformResult` where `TransformResult` contains `code: String` and `has_components: bool`. The function SHALL look up the file's components in the manifest and apply source replacements.
+
+#### Scenario: Transform file with components
+
+- **WHEN** `transform_file` is called for a file that has components in the manifest
+- **THEN** the result SHALL have `has_components: true` and `code` containing `createComponent()` calls with the class names and configs from the manifest
+
+#### Scenario: Transform file without components
+
+- **WHEN** `transform_file` is called for a file that has no components in the manifest
+- **THEN** the result SHALL have `has_components: false` and `code` identical to the input source
+
+#### Scenario: Transform file adds CSS import
+
+- **WHEN** `transform_file` is called for a file that has components
+- **THEN** the transformed code SHALL include an import for the global CSS virtual module (e.g., `import 'virtual:animus/styles.css'`)
+
+### Requirement: UniverseManifest structure
+
+The manifest JSON SHALL contain: `components`, `utilities`, `css` (reconciled), `provenance`, `files`, `usage` (usage ledger data), and `report` (extraction report). The `css` field SHALL contain ONLY CSS for used variants, used states, and rendered components — dead rules SHALL be eliminated before CSS generation.
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest with reconciled CSS
+
+- **WHEN** the project has components with unused variant options and states
+- **THEN** `manifest.css` SHALL NOT contain CSS rules for unused variant options or states
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest with usage field
+
+- **WHEN** the analysis completes
+- **THEN** `manifest.usage` SHALL contain `{ rendered_components: [...], variant_usage: {...}, state_usage: {...} }`
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest with report field
+
+- **WHEN** the analysis completes
+- **THEN** `manifest.report` SHALL contain flat fields: `components_total`, `components_extracted`, `components_eliminated`, `variants_total`, `variants_used`, `variants_eliminated`, `states_total`, `states_used`, `states_eliminated`, and `eliminated_details` array
+
+### Requirement: FileEntry accepts optional content hash
+
+The `FileEntry` input structure SHALL accept an optional `hash` field (string or null). When present, the hash is used for cache lookup. When absent, the file is always re-parsed.
+
+#### Scenario: Hash field present
+
+- **WHEN** a FileEntry includes `{ path: "src/Button.tsx", source: "...", hash: "abc123" }`
+- **THEN** the analyzer checks the per-file cache for path "src/Button.tsx" with hash "abc123"
+
+#### Scenario: Hash field absent
+
+- **WHEN** a FileEntry includes `{ path: "src/Button.tsx", source: "..." }` with no hash field
+- **THEN** the file is re-parsed unconditionally (backward-compatible behavior)
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: analyzeProject accepts dev_mode parameter
+
+The `analyzeProject()` NAPI function SHALL accept an optional `dev_mode` boolean parameter. When `true`, JSX scanning runs ONLY on changed files (cache misses), cached scan results are reused for unchanged files, and reconciliation is skipped entirely. When `false` or absent, full analysis proceeds unchanged (all files scanned, reconciliation applied).
+
+#### Scenario: Dev-mode parameter passed
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: true`
+- **THEN** JSX scanning runs only on changed files (cache misses), cached scan results are merged for unchanged files, and reconciliation is skipped
+
+#### Scenario: Dev-mode parameter absent
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called without a `dev_mode` parameter
+- **THEN** the analysis runs all phases including full JSX scanning (all files) and reconciliation (unchanged from current behavior)
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: Manifest output identical for cached vs uncached analysis
+
+Given identical file inputs, `analyzeProject()` SHALL produce the same manifest regardless of whether per-file extraction results were served from cache or freshly parsed. The cache SHALL NOT introduce divergence in component ordering, CSS output, or extension merging.
+
+#### Scenario: Cached result matches full analysis
+
+- **WHEN** `analyzeProject()` is called twice with the same file inputs — first without cache, second with cache populated from the first call
+- **THEN** the manifest JSON output of both calls is byte-identical

+# prop-cascade-ordering Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+TBD - created by archiving change fix-shorthand-cascade-ordering. Update Purpose after archive.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Shorthand props emit before longhand props
+
+The style resolver SHALL sort DS props by cascade tier before generating CSS declarations. Props whose `property` field matches a CSS shorthand (e.g., `padding`, `margin`, `border`) SHALL emit before props targeting individual longhands (e.g., `paddingLeft`, `marginRight`).
+
+#### Scenario: px before pl in base styles
+
+- **WHEN** a component's base styles contain `{ px: 3, pl: 8 }`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS SHALL contain `padding-left` from `px` before `padding-left` from `pl`, so `pl`'s value wins by cascade
+
+#### Scenario: p before px before pl
+
+- **WHEN** a component's base styles contain `{ pl: 8, px: 3, p: 2 }` in any source order
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS SHALL order declarations as: `p`'s `padding` first, then `px`'s `padding-left` + `padding-right`, then `pl`'s `padding-left` — most general to most specific
+
+#### Scenario: margin shorthands follow same ordering
+
+- **WHEN** a component's base styles contain `{ ml: 4, mx: 2 }`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS SHALL contain `mx`'s `margin-left` before `ml`'s `margin-left`
+
+### Requirement: Cascade ordering applies to all style contexts
+
+The cascade-tier sorting SHALL apply uniformly across all style resolution contexts, not only base styles.
+
+#### Scenario: Ordering in pseudo-selector blocks
+
+- **WHEN** a pseudo-selector block (e.g., `_hover`) contains `{ px: 3, pl: 8 }`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS within that pseudo-selector SHALL order `px` before `pl`
+
+#### Scenario: Ordering in variant styles
+
+- **WHEN** a variant style object contains shorthand and longhand props for the same CSS property family
+- **THEN** the shorthand prop's declarations SHALL emit before the longhand prop's declarations
+
+### Requirement: Source order preserved within cascade tiers
+
+Within the same cascade tier, props SHALL maintain their source definition order as a tiebreaker.
+
+#### Scenario: Two longhands preserve source order
+
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `{ pl: 8, pr: 4 }` (both tier-2 longhands)
+- **THEN** `padding-left` SHALL emit before `padding-right`, matching source order
+
+#### Scenario: Two multi-target shorthands preserve source order
+
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `{ py: 2, px: 3 }` (both tier-1 multi-target)
+- **THEN** `py`'s declarations SHALL emit before `px`'s declarations, matching source order
+
+### Requirement: JSON object key ordering uses insertion order
+
+The `serde_json` dependency SHALL use the `preserve_order` feature so that `serde_json::Map` uses `IndexMap` (insertion-ordered) instead of `BTreeMap` (alphabetical).
+
+#### Scenario: Style evaluator preserves AST source order
+
+- **WHEN** the style evaluator converts `{ px: 3, py: 2, pl: 8 }` from AST to `serde_json::Value`
+- **THEN** iterating the resulting object's keys SHALL yield `px`, `py`, `pl` in that order (not alphabetical `pl`, `px`, `py`)

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Prop definitions support scale resolution
+
+Prop definitions with a `scale` property SHALL resolve values from the system's token type `T` instead of the global `Theme` interface. `ScaleValue<Config, T>` SHALL check `Config['scale'] extends keyof T` first, then fall through to inline MapScale/ArrayScale, then to raw CSS property values. The CompatTheme fallback chain SHALL NOT exist in the system package.
+
+#### Scenario: String value resolved from theme scale
+
+- **WHEN** a prop has `scale: 'colors'` and T defines `colors: { primary: string; secondary: string }`
+- **THEN** `ScaleValue<Config, T>` SHALL resolve to `'primary' | 'secondary' | PropertyValues<Config>`
+
+#### Scenario: Value not in scale passes through
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer passes `color="rebeccapurple"` (a raw CSS value not in the theme)
+- **THEN** the value SHALL be accepted as a valid CSS property value (no type error)
+
+#### Scenario: Scale not in T falls through to CSS values
+
+- **WHEN** a prop has `scale: 'sizes'` but T does not define a `sizes` key
+- **THEN** `ScaleValue<Config, T>` SHALL fall through to raw CSS property values (no CompatTheme fallback)
+
+### Requirement: Prop definitions support transform functions
+
+Transform functions on prop definitions SHALL remain unchanged. The system package SHALL use the same `TransformFn` and `NamedTransform` types. Transforms SHALL NOT be executed by the builder chain — they are an extraction pipeline concern.
+
+#### Scenario: NamedTransform is serializable
+
+- **WHEN** a prop has `transform: createTransform('size', fn)`
+- **THEN** `ds.serialize()` SHALL extract the transform by name for the plugin's post-processing step
+
+#### Scenario: Bare function still works
+
+- **WHEN** a prop has `transform: (val) => ...` without `createTransform`
+- **THEN** the builder chain SHALL accept it, but `.serialize()` SHALL skip it (unnamed transforms cannot be dispatched by the extraction pipeline)
+
+## REMOVED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: CompatTheme fallback in ScaleValue
+
+**Reason:** CompatTheme was a leaky abstraction from the Emotion era. With T as a first-class generic, scale resolution goes directly through `T[scale]`. If T doesn't have a scale, the type falls through to CSS property values — no hidden defaults.
+**Migration:** Consumers must define all scales in their token definition (`.withTokens()`). Scales previously provided by CompatTheme (space, fontSizes, lineHeights, etc.) must be explicitly included in the theme.
+
+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: ThemeProps parameterized by T
+
+`ThemeProps<Props, T>` SHALL replace `ThemeProps<Props>`. The `theme` property SHALL be typed as `T` instead of `AbstractTheme`.
+
+#### Scenario: Theme prop carries T
+
+- **WHEN** a component's props include theme access
+- **THEN** `props.theme` SHALL be typed as `T`, not `AbstractTheme` (no `[key: string]: any` escape hatch)
+
+### Requirement: ParserProps parameterized by T
+
+`ParserProps<Config, T>` SHALL thread T through to `Scale<Config, T>` → `ScaleValue<Config, T>` for each prop in the config. Responsive prop types SHALL use `ResponsiveProp<V>` where `ResponsiveProp` is `V | MediaQueryMap<V>`. `MediaQueryMap<V>` SHALL be `{ _?: V } & { [K in keyof T['breakpoints']]?: V }` — a mapped type derived from the theme's breakpoint keys, not a hardcoded interface.
+
+#### Scenario: Parser props resolve scales from T
+
+- **WHEN** a parser is created for a config with `{ bg: { property: 'backgroundColor', scale: 'colors' } }`
+- **THEN** the parser's props type SHALL include `bg?: ResponsiveProp<keyof T['colors'] | CSSPropertyValue>`
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive prop accepts only theme breakpoint keys
+
+- **WHEN** T defines `breakpoints: { sm: number; lg: number }` and a parser prop accepts `ResponsiveProp<string>`
+- **THEN** `{ _: 'red', sm: 'blue', lg: 'green' }` SHALL type-check but `{ md: 'blue' }` SHALL be a type error
+
+### REMOVED — Requirement: Responsive array syntax
+
+**Reason:** Array syntax couples positional indices to a fixed breakpoint count. With user-defined breakpoint keys, positional ordering is ambiguous and fragile. Object syntax is key-based and naturally adapts to any breakpoint set.
+**Migration:** Replace `p={[8, 12, , 16]}` with `p={{ _: 8, xs: 12, lg: 16 }}`. The `_` key replaces index 0 (default), named keys replace positional indices.
+
+### Requirement: MediaQueryMap is a mapped type
+
+`MediaQueryMap<T>` SHALL be defined as a mapped type over `Theme['breakpoints']` rather than a hardcoded interface. The shape SHALL be `{ _?: T } & { [K in keyof Theme['breakpoints']]?: T }`. When `Theme` is not augmented, it SHALL fall back to `{ _?: T } & { [key: string]: T | undefined }`.
+
+#### Scenario: Mapped type reflects custom breakpoints
+
+- **WHEN** Theme is augmented with `breakpoints: { mobile: number; tablet: number; desktop: number }`
+- **THEN** `MediaQueryMap<string>` SHALL resolve to `{ _?: string; mobile?: string; tablet?: string; desktop?: string }`
+
+#### Scenario: Fallback when Theme is not augmented
+
+- **WHEN** Theme is NOT augmented
+- **THEN** `MediaQueryMap<T>` SHALL accept any string key (open record), not restrict to `xs | sm | md | lg | xl`
+
+### Requirement: ResponsiveProp simplified to two forms
+
+`ResponsiveProp<T>` SHALL be `T | MediaQueryMap<T>`. The `MediaQueryArray<T>` union arm SHALL be removed entirely. No array-based responsive syntax SHALL be supported at the type level.
+
+#### Scenario: Object syntax accepted
+
+- **WHEN** a prop value is `{ _: 8, md: 16 }`
+- **THEN** it SHALL type-check as `ResponsiveProp<number>` with the appropriate breakpoint keys
+
+#### Scenario: Array syntax rejected
+
+- **WHEN** a prop value is `[8, 12, , 16]`
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT type-check as `ResponsiveProp<number>` — arrays are no longer valid responsive values
+
+### Requirement: Prop currentVar configuration
+
+The `Prop` interface SHALL support an optional `currentVar` field of type `string`. When present, it declares that setting this prop SHALL trigger emission of a sibling CSS custom property declaration with the same resolved value.
+
+#### Scenario: Prop config with currentVar
+
+- **WHEN** the color group defines `bg: { property: 'backgroundColor', scale: 'colors', currentVar: '--current-bg' }`
+- **THEN** the prop config SHALL be valid and the `currentVar` value SHALL be serialized to the Rust extractor
+
+#### Scenario: Prop config without currentVar
+
+- **WHEN** a prop config does not include `currentVar`
+- **THEN** behavior SHALL be unchanged — no sibling declaration is emitted
+
+### Requirement: Sibling CSS declaration emission
+
+When the Rust extractor processes a prop that has `currentVar` in its config, it SHALL emit an additional `CssDeclaration` with the CSS custom property name as the property and the same resolved value.
+
+#### Scenario: Auto-emission in base styles
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `.styles({ bg: 'surface' })` and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain both `background-color: var(--color-surface);` and `--current-bg: var(--color-surface);`
+
+#### Scenario: Auto-emission in variants
+
+- **WHEN** a variant option sets `bg: 'coal'` and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **THEN** the variant's CSS block SHALL contain both `background-color: var(--color-coal);` and `--current-bg: var(--color-coal);`
+
+#### Scenario: Auto-emission in states
+
+- **WHEN** a state sets `bg: 'primary'` and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **THEN** the state's CSS block SHALL contain both declarations
+
+#### Scenario: Auto-emission with system props
+
+- **WHEN** a system prop class is generated for `bg="surface"` and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **THEN** the utility class CSS SHALL contain both declarations
+
+#### Scenario: Cascade correctness with multiple layers
+
+- **WHEN** a component sets `bg: 'surface'` in `.styles()` (base layer) and `bg: 'coal'` in a variant (variants layer)
+- **THEN** base CSS SHALL contain `--current-bg: var(--color-surface)` and variant CSS SHALL contain `--current-bg: var(--color-coal)`
+- **AND** the CSS cascade SHALL ensure the variant's `--current-bg` wins when the variant is active
+
+#### Scenario: Auto-emission with raw CSS values
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `bg: '#ff0000'` (raw CSS, not a token) and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `background-color: #ff0000;` and `--current-bg: #ff0000;`
+
+### Requirement: Serialization of currentVar metadata
+
+The system serialization SHALL include `currentVar` in the prop config metadata sent to the Rust extractor.
+
+#### Scenario: PropConfig serialization
+
+- **WHEN** a prop has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **THEN** the serialized prop config SHALL include `currentVar: '--current-bg'` alongside `property`, `scale`, and other existing fields
+
+### Requirement: Self-referential emission guard
+
+The Rust extractor SHALL skip auto-emission when the resolved value would create a cyclic CSS custom property reference.
+
+#### Scenario: Self-referential bg value
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `bg: 'current-bg'` and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **AND** `current-bg` resolves to `var(--current-bg)`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `background-color: var(--current-bg)` but SHALL NOT contain `--current-bg: var(--current-bg)`
+
+#### Scenario: Non-self-referential value emits normally
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `bg: 'surface'` and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **AND** `surface` resolves to `var(--color-surface)`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain both `background-color: var(--color-surface)` and `--current-bg: var(--color-surface)`
+
+### Requirement: Responsive auto-emission
+
+When a prop with `currentVar` has responsive values, the sibling declaration SHALL be emitted within each breakpoint's media query block.
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive bg with auto-emission
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `bg={{ _: 'surface', md: 'coal' }}` and `bg` has `currentVar: '--current-bg'`
+- **THEN** the default CSS block SHALL contain `--current-bg: var(--color-surface)`
+- **AND** the `md` media query block SHALL contain `--current-bg: var(--color-coal)`
+
+### Requirement: Rust PropConfig struct
+
+The Rust `PropConfig` struct SHALL include an optional `current_var` field parsed from the serialized prop config JSON.
+
+#### Scenario: PropConfig deserialization
+
+- **WHEN** the serialized prop config JSON contains `"currentVar": "--current-bg"`
+- **THEN** the Rust `PropConfig` struct SHALL have `current_var: Some("--current-bg".to_string())`
+
+#### Scenario: Missing currentVar defaults to None
+
+- **WHEN** the serialized prop config JSON does not contain `"currentVar"`
+- **THEN** the Rust `PropConfig` struct SHALL have `current_var: None`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Fixed versioning across all publishable packages
+
+All publishable packages SHALL share a single version derived from the git tag. The release script SHALL stamp the same version into every publishable package's `package.json`.
+
+#### Scenario: All packages receive the same version
+
+- **WHEN** `bun release patch` is run and the current version is `0.1.0`
+- **THEN** `properties`, `system`, `extract`, `vite-plugin`, and `next-plugin` SHALL all have `.version` set to `0.1.1`
+
+#### Scenario: Legacy packages excluded
+
+- **WHEN** a release is cut
+- **THEN** `core`, `theming`, `runtime`, and `ui` SHALL NOT be updated or published — they are marked `private: true`
+
+### Requirement: Semver bump types
+
+The release script SHALL support standard semver bump types: `patch`, `minor`, `major`, `prepatch`, `preminor`, `premajor`, `prerelease`, and `graduate`.
+
+#### Scenario: Stable bump from stable version
+
+- **WHEN** current version is `0.1.1` and bump type is `minor`
+- **THEN** next version SHALL be `0.2.0`
+
+#### Scenario: Stable bump from prerelease version
+
+- **WHEN** current version is `0.2.0-next.3` and bump type is `patch`
+- **THEN** next version SHALL be `0.2.0` (strip prerelease, same as graduate)
+
+#### Scenario: Prerelease bump from stable version
+
+- **WHEN** current version is `0.1.1` and bump type is `preminor`
+- **THEN** next version SHALL be `0.2.0-next.0`
+
+#### Scenario: Prerelease increment
+
+- **WHEN** current version is `0.2.0-next.0` and bump type is `prerelease`
+- **THEN** next version SHALL be `0.2.0-next.1`, preserving the existing channel identifier
+
+#### Scenario: Graduate strips prerelease
+
+- **WHEN** current version is `0.2.0-next.5` and bump type is `graduate`
+- **THEN** next version SHALL be `0.2.0`
+
+#### Scenario: Graduate rejects stable version
+
+- **WHEN** current version is `0.2.0` (no prerelease) and bump type is `graduate`
+- **THEN** the script SHALL exit with an error
+
+### Requirement: Version derived from git tags
+
+The current version SHALL be parsed from the latest valid semver git tag, not from any package.json file.
+
+#### Scenario: Malformed tags filtered
+
+- **WHEN** tags include `v0.1.0-next/19` (slash) or `v0.1.0-next.v7` (extra `v` prefix)
+- **THEN** those tags SHALL be excluded — only tags matching `v<major>.<minor>.<patch>(-<channel>.<number>)?` are valid
+
+#### Scenario: No valid tags
+
+- **WHEN** no valid semver tags exist
+- **THEN** the script SHALL start from version `0.0.0`
+
+### Requirement: Branch and cleanliness guards
+
+The release script SHALL only run on the `main` branch with a clean working tree.
+
+#### Scenario: Wrong branch
+
+- **WHEN** the script is run on a branch other than `main`
+- **THEN** it SHALL exit with an error naming the current branch
+
+#### Scenario: Dirty working tree
+
+- **WHEN** the script is run with uncommitted changes
+- **THEN** it SHALL exit with an error
+
+### Requirement: Commit, tag, and push
+
+The release script SHALL create a version commit, a git tag, and push both to the remote.
+
+#### Scenario: Release artifacts
+
+- **WHEN** a release completes
+- **THEN** a commit with message `release: v<version>` SHALL exist, a tag `v<version>` SHALL point to it, and both SHALL be pushed to origin
+
+### Requirement: Dry-run mode
+
+The release script SHALL support a `--dry-run` flag that previews the version bump without modifying any files or git state.
+
+#### Scenario: Dry-run output
+
+- **WHEN** `bun release patch --dry-run` is run
+- **THEN** the script SHALL print the current and next version and exit without changes
+
+### Requirement: Prerelease channel override
+
+The release script SHALL support a `--channel` flag to override the default prerelease identifier (`next`).
+
+#### Scenario: Custom channel
+
+- **WHEN** `bun release premajor --channel beta` is run and current version is `0.1.0`
+- **THEN** next version SHALL be `1.0.0-beta.0`
+
+### Requirement: CI publish pipeline alignment
+
+The CI release job SHALL publish the same set of packages the release script stamps: `properties`, `system`, `extract`, `vite-plugin`, `next-plugin`. Legacy packages (`core`, `theming`) SHALL NOT appear in CI version-bump or publish loops.
+
+#### Scenario: Prerelease tags publish to npm `next`
+
+- **WHEN** CI processes a tag with a prerelease suffix (e.g., `v0.2.0-next.0`)
+- **THEN** all packages SHALL be published with `--tag next`
+
+#### Scenario: Stable tags publish to npm `latest`
+
+- **WHEN** CI processes a tag without a prerelease suffix (e.g., `v0.2.0`)
+- **THEN** all packages SHALL be published with `--tag latest`

+# rolldown-build Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+TBD - created by archiving change rolldown-build. Update Purpose after archive.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Rolldown as library bundler
+
+Each published TypeScript package in the active build graph (`packages/extract`, `packages/system`, `packages/properties`, `packages/vite-plugin`, `packages/next-plugin`, and the private workspace `packages/_assertions`) SHALL use Rolldown as the bundling engine to produce ES module bundles. The orchestrator binding (currently `tsdown`, which wraps Rolldown internally) SHALL handle TypeScript and JSX compilation natively without Babel; declaration emission SHALL be handled by `tsgo` (TypeScript 7 native preview) per the canonical `build:ts` per-package invocation (`tsdown && tsgo -p tsconfig.build.json`).
+
+#### Scenario: System package build
+
+- **WHEN** `vp run build:ts` executes (which dispatches to `bun run --filter './packages/*' build:ts`)
+- **THEN** Rolldown (via tsdown) produces ES module output for each package's configured entries
+- **AND** all `node_modules` are externalized from the bundle
+- **AND** the output extension follows the package's `type` field (`.js` for `type: "module"` packages, the canonical animus configuration)
+
+#### Scenario: TypeScript declaration output
+
+- **WHEN** a published package's `build:ts` script completes
+- **THEN** `dist/<entry>.d.ts` declaration files are generated by `tsgo -p tsconfig.build.json`
+- **AND** the declaration extension is `.d.ts` (not `.d.mts`), preserving the consumer-visible `package.json exports.types` contract
+
+### Requirement: No Babel in build pipeline
+
+The build pipeline SHALL NOT use Babel for any purpose. No `babel.config.js`, `.babelrc`, or Babel-related dependencies SHALL exist in the repository.
+
+#### Scenario: Babel removal verification
+
+- **WHEN** searching the repository for Babel configuration files
+- **THEN** no `babel.config.js`, `.babelrc`, or `babel.config.json` files exist at any level
+- **THEN** no `@babel/*`, `babel-*`, or `babel-preset-*` entries exist in any `package.json`
+
+### Requirement: Shared Rolldown base config
+
+A shared bundler base configuration SHALL be defined at the repository root for the Rolldown-based build pipeline. Per-package configs SHALL extend the shared base with minimal overrides (entry points, externals). The current shared base is `tsdown.config.base.ts` (tsdown wraps Rolldown internally), consumed by per-package `tsdown.config.ts` files via the `createConfig()` helper. Under engine-identity-only interpretation per Requirement "Binding to orchestration-architecture", the shared-config surface MAY be replaced by an alternative wrapper's equivalent (e.g., `vite.config.ts pack:` blocks for `vp pack`, or `rolldown.config.ts` for direct Rolldown invocation) in a future engine-swap slice provided the output is functionally equivalent.
+
+#### Scenario: Per-package config
+
+- **WHEN** examining a package's `tsdown.config.ts`
+- **THEN** it imports and extends the root shared `tsdown.config.base.ts` via the `createConfig()` helper
+- **THEN** package-specific config is no more than ~10 lines (typically just an `entry: [...]` array; format/dts/clean/outDir/target/platform inherited from the shared base)
+
+### Requirement: Build output equivalence
+
+The Rolldown build output SHALL be functionally equivalent to the current Rollup output: ES module format, single `dist/index.js` entry, all external dependencies excluded from the bundle.
+
+#### Scenario: Output format
+
+- **WHEN** inspecting `dist/index.js` after a Rolldown build
+- **THEN** the file uses ES module syntax (import/export)
+- **THEN** no `node_modules` code is inlined
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The library bundler contract — Rolldown as the bundling engine, ES-module output, TypeScript and JSX compilation without Babel, externalization of `node_modules`, declaration emission — defined in this spec SHALL be realized through the orchestrator binding designated by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding invokes `tsdown` (which uses Rolldown internally) per package via the orchestrator's task graph: `vp run build:ts` (defined in `vite.config.ts run.tasks`) dispatches `bun run --filter './packages/*' build:ts`, and each per-package `build:ts` script invokes `tsdown && tsgo -p tsconfig.build.json` (tsdown emits ES module bundles; tsgo emits `.d.ts` declarations).
+
+The `orchestration-architecture` capability's "Follow-On Policy Decomposition" requirement enumerating "A change rebinding the library bundler" is satisfied by THIS capability's binding through `vp run build:ts`. The bundler-engine identity (Rolldown), the output format (ES module), the externalization contract, and the declaration-emission requirement are preserved. Under engine-identity-only interpretation, the wrapper (currently `tsdown`) is negotiable as long as engine identity is preserved; the wrapper choice is an orchestrator-binding concern, not a spec-level invariant of this capability.
+
+A future engine-swap policy slice — `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` — is RESERVED for replacing the wrapper from `tsdown` to `vp pack` when vp pack reaches GA and accumulates sufficient bake time. That future slice SHALL preserve the bundler-engine identity (Rolldown), the output format (ES module), the externalization contract, and the declaration-emission requirement. The future slice MAY replace `tsdown.config.ts` files with `vp pack` configuration (CLI args, per-package `vite.config.ts pack:` blocks, or the orchestrator's equivalent config surface) provided the output is functionally equivalent and the consumer-visible package contract (`.js` + `.d.ts` exports paths in `package.json exports`) is either preserved or migrated explicitly with consumer-side coordination.
+
+#### Scenario: Rolldown engine identity is preserved through current binding
+
+- **WHEN** `vp run build:ts` executes against any published package in the active build graph
+- **THEN** the underlying bundling engine is Rolldown (via tsdown wrapper)
+- **AND** ES-module output is emitted
+- **AND** all `node_modules` are externalized from the bundle
+- **AND** TypeScript declaration files are emitted (via tsgo)
+
+#### Scenario: Future engine-swap preserves engine identity
+
+- **WHEN** the future `migrate-build-to-vp-pack` cutover slice rebinds the library-build invocation from `tsdown` to `vp pack`
+- **THEN** the underlying bundling engine continues to be Rolldown (vp pack wraps Rolldown internally)
+- **AND** ES-module output continues to be the only emitted format
+- **AND** all `node_modules` continue to be externalized from the bundle
+- **AND** TypeScript declaration files continue to be emitted
+- **AND** the consumer-visible package contract (`.js` + `.d.ts` exports paths) is preserved or migrated with consumer-side coordination

+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic style isolation per instance
+
+The `createComponent` runtime SHALL compute dynamic style objects independently per render, with no shared mutable state between component instances. Multiple instances of the same component rendered with different dynamic system prop values SHALL each receive their own correct style object.
+
+#### Scenario: Two instances with different dynamic props
+
+- **WHEN** `<Button mt={4} />` and `<Button mt={8} />` render in the same tree
+- **THEN** the first instance SHALL have `style` containing the CSS variable for `mt=4`
+- **AND** the second instance SHALL have `style` containing the CSS variable for `mt=8`
+- **AND** re-rendering either instance SHALL NOT affect the other's style
+
+#### Scenario: RSC compatibility
+
+- **WHEN** `createComponent` is used to create a component
+- **THEN** the component SHALL use no React hooks (useRef, useState, useEffect, etc.)
+- **AND** the component SHALL be renderable in React Server Components without a `'use client'` directive
+- **AND** `.asClass()` (the headless class resolver path) SHALL remain RSC-compatible
+
+#### Scenario: No cross-instance state leakage
+
+- **WHEN** multiple instances of the same component type render in the same tree
+- **THEN** no closure-scoped mutable state SHALL be shared between their render invocations
+- **AND** each render SHALL compute its dynamic style from its own props via `resolveClasses()`

+### Requirement: Runtime module location
+
+The `createComponent` function and all runtime types SHALL reside in `packages/system/src/runtime/index.ts`. The system package SHALL export `createComponent` from its public API.
+
+#### Scenario: Import from system package
+
+- **WHEN** consumer code imports `createComponent`
+- **THEN** the import path SHALL be `import { createComponent } from '@animus-ui/system'`
+
+#### Scenario: Internal builder chain usage
+
+- **WHEN** `Animus.ts` or `AnimusExtended.ts` need `createComponent`
+- **THEN** they SHALL import from `'./runtime'` (relative path within system package)
+
+### Requirement: Runtime package removal
+
+The `packages/runtime` workspace entry SHALL be removed from the root `package.json` workspaces array and from the `build:ts` script order. The runtime package SHALL NOT be built or published.
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace exclusion
+
+- **WHEN** `bun install` runs at the repository root
+- **THEN** `packages/runtime` SHALL NOT be included in the workspace resolution
+
+#### Scenario: Build order exclusion

+## Purpose
+
+The `rust-extraction-pipeline` capability defines the Rust NAPI extraction boundary consumed by the vite-plugin and next-plugin adapters. It specifies the NAPI function surface, how the pipeline walks builder chains, performs static style evaluation, resolves theme scale references, generates CSS output inside the `@layer anm-*` namespace, and substitutes extraction-time bindings (keyframes, etc.).
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: NAPI function signature
+
+The Rust crate SHALL export THREE NAPI functions:
+
+1. `extract(source, filename, theme_json, variable_map_json, config_json, group_registry_json) -> ExtractionResult` — per-file extraction (preserved for backward compatibility and testing)
+2. `analyze_project(file_entries_json, theme_json, variable_map_json, contextual_vars_json?, config_json, group_registry_json, package_resolution_json, dev_mode?, prefix?, emitter_config_json?) -> String` — project-level analysis returning JSON manifest. The new `emitter_config_json` parameter accepts an optional JSON string specifying `EmitterConfig` for configurable runtime import and CSS module ID.
+3. `transform_file(source, filename, manifest_json) -> TransformResult` — per-file transformation using manifest. When the manifest contains emitter config, `apply_replacements` SHALL use those paths instead of hardcoded defaults.
+
+The `theme_json` parameter SHALL include `breakpoints.*` keys in the flattened theme. The extraction pipeline SHALL derive breakpoint key names from these entries rather than using any hardcoded constant.
+
+#### Scenario: Backward-compatible extract
+
+- **WHEN** `extract()` is called with a file containing only primary chains (no extensions)
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce the same result as before — CSS, transformed code, extractable flag, errors
+
+#### Scenario: analyze_project with emitter config
+
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` is called with `emitter_config_json: '{"runtime_import":"@animus-ui/system","css_module_id":".animus/styles.css"}'`
+- **THEN** the returned manifest SHALL include the emitter config and `transform_file()` SHALL use those paths in generated import statements
+
+#### Scenario: analyze_project without emitter config
+
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` is called with `emitter_config_json: None`
+- **THEN** the manifest SHALL use default emitter paths (`@animus-ui/system`, `virtual:animus/styles.css`) — backward compatible with existing Vite plugin behavior
+
+#### Scenario: transform_file reads emitter config from manifest
+
+- **WHEN** `transform_file()` is called with a manifest containing emitter config
+- **THEN** it SHALL emit `import { createComponent } from '<runtime_import>'` and `import '<css_module_id>'` using the config values
+
+#### Scenario: Custom breakpoints in theme_json
+
+- **WHEN** `theme_json` contains `{ "breakpoints.mobile": "480", "breakpoints.tablet": "768", "breakpoints.desktop": "1024" }`
+- **THEN** the extraction pipeline SHALL recognize `{ mobile: value, tablet: value, desktop: value }` as responsive objects and generate `@media (min-width: 480px)`, `@media (min-width: 768px)`, `@media (min-width: 1024px)` queries
+
+#### Scenario: analyze_project with extensions
+
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project()` is called with files containing extension chains
+- **THEN** the returned manifest JSON SHALL contain all components (primary and extended), resolved provenance, merged chain configs, and complete CSS
+
+#### Scenario: transform_file uses manifest
+
+- **WHEN** `transform_file()` is called with a file and a manifest
+- **THEN** it SHALL look up the file's components in the manifest and apply source replacements using the manifest's precomputed class names and configs
+
+#### Scenario: Chain with groups is extractable
+
+- **WHEN** `extract()` is called with source containing `animus.styles({...}).groups({ space: true }).asElement('div')` and JSX elements using system props
+- **THEN** the result SHALL have `extractable: true`, `css` containing both component layer CSS and utility CSS in `@layer system`, and `code` containing `createComponent()` with system prop class map
+
+#### Scenario: Chain with props is extractable
+
+- **WHEN** `extract()` is called with source containing `animus.styles({...}).props({ logoSize: {...} }).asElement('h1')` and JSX elements using custom props
+- **THEN** the result SHALL have `extractable: true`, `css` containing utility CSS in `@layer custom`
+
+### Requirement: Chain walking from terminals
+
+The chain walker SHALL find all `.asElement(tag)` and `.asComponent(component)` terminal calls in the AST, walk backwards through the method chain, and collect each stage's argument spans. The walker SHALL recognize TWO chain patterns:
+
+1. **Primary chains**: `animus` root followed by zero or more stages, terminated by `.asElement(tag)` or `.asComponent(component)`
+2. **Extension chains**: A component binding root (any identifier that is NOT `animus`), followed by `.extend()`, followed by zero or more stages, terminated by `.asElement(tag)` or `.asComponent(component)`
+
+The walker SHALL bail with `extractable: false` when encountering a method call that is not in the known `CHAIN_METHODS` set, not in the `BAIL_METHODS` set, and is not a recognized terminal or extension marker.
+
+#### Scenario: Walk styles-variant-asElement chain
+
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).variant({...}).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with `terminal: "asElement"`, `tag: "button"`, stages `styles` and `variants`, and `extends_from: None`
+
+#### Scenario: Walk extension chain
+
+- **WHEN** source contains `Button.extend().styles({ borderRadius: 8 }).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with `terminal: "asElement"`, `tag: "button"`, stages containing `styles`, and `extends_from: Some("Button")`
+
+#### Scenario: Walk extension chain with asComponent terminal
+
+- **WHEN** source contains `Link.extend().states({ active: {} }).asComponent(NextLink)`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with `terminal: "asComponent"`, `tag: "NextLink"`, stages containing `states`, and `extends_from: Some("Link")`
+
+#### Scenario: Extension chain is extractable
+
+- **WHEN** source contains an extension chain with statically evaluable stages
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL be marked `extractable: true` — `.extend()` on a component binding is NO LONGER a bail condition
+
+#### Scenario: Extension with non-static stages still bails
+
+- **WHEN** source contains `Button.extend().styles({ color: dynamicVar }).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL bail with reason "variable reference (non-static)" — same bail rules as primary chains
+
+#### Scenario: Bare .extend() in animus chain still bails
+
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).extend(SomeComponent).asElement('div')` (extend as a STAGE, not as a chain root pattern)
+- **THEN** the chain SHALL bail — `.extend()` as a mid-chain call with an argument is not the same as the `.extend()` root pattern
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple chains including extensions in one file
+
+- **WHEN** source contains both `const A = animus.styles({...}).asElement('div')` and `const B = A.extend().styles({...}).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce two chain descriptors: A as a primary chain, B as an extension chain with `extends_from: Some("A")`
+
+#### Scenario: Walk variant-only chain
+
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.variant({...}).variant({...}).asElement('span')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with two variant entries merged (matching lodash `merge` semantics in the runtime)
+
+#### Scenario: Walk chain with groups stage
+
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).groups({ space: true, layout: true }).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with a `groups` stage containing active group names `["space", "layout"]` and the chain SHALL be marked extractable
+
+#### Scenario: Walk chain with props stage
+
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).props({ logoSize: { property: 'fontSize', scale: { xs: 28, sm: 32 } } }).asElement('h1')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with a `props` stage containing the custom prop configuration and the chain SHALL be marked extractable
+
+#### Scenario: Walk chain with both groups and props
+
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).groups({ space: true }).props({ custom: {...} }).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a chain descriptor with both `groups` and `props` stages and the chain SHALL be marked extractable
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple chains in one file
+
+- **WHEN** source contains multiple independent `animus.` chains (e.g., `ButtonContainer` and `ButtonForeground`)
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL produce a separate chain descriptor for each, and each SHALL be independently extractable or bailable
+
+#### Scenario: Unknown method causes bail
+
+- **WHEN** source contains `animus.styles({...}).unknownMethod({...}).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL set `extractable: false` with bail reason containing "unknown chain method: unknownMethod"
+
+#### Scenario: Future method on extension chain causes bail
+
+- **WHEN** source contains `Button.extend().styles({...}).futureAPI({...}).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the walker SHALL set `extractable: false` with bail reason containing "unknown chain method: futureAPI"
+
+#### Scenario: Props stage with inline transform function is extractable
+
+- **WHEN** source contains `.props({ sizing: { property: 'flexBasis', transform: (v) => \`${v}px\` } })`
+- **THEN** the style evaluator SHALL capture the function source text from the `transform` field and the chain SHALL be marked `extractable: true`
+
+#### Scenario: Props stage with inline transform emits function body in replacement
+
+- **WHEN** `.props({ sizing: { property: 'flexBasis', transform: (v) => \`${v}px\` } })`is extracted and`sizing` has dynamic JSX usage
+- **THEN** the replacement JS SHALL contain the function body directly: `"transform":(v) => \`${v}px\``— NOT a`transforms.name` registry reference
+
+### Requirement: Static style evaluation
+
+The style evaluator SHALL convert ObjectExpression AST nodes to key-value style maps. It SHALL handle string literals, numeric literals, nested object literals (for pseudo-selectors and responsive values), and array literals. When encountering a property whose value is a function call, variable reference, template literal containing expressions, or member expression, the evaluator SHALL skip that individual property and continue evaluating remaining properties. It SHALL bail the entire object only on structural issues: spread elements, computed property keys, and getter/setter properties.
+
+#### Scenario: Evaluate simple style object
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ p: 0, display: 'inline-flex', borderRadius: 4 }`
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce `{ "p": 0, "display": "inline-flex", "borderRadius": 4 }`
+
+#### Scenario: Evaluate nested pseudo-selector
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ '&:hover': { color: 'primary' } }`
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce `{ "&:hover": { "color": "primary" } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Evaluate responsive object
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator processes `{ fontSize: { _: 16, xs: 18 } }`
+- **THEN** it SHALL produce `{ "fontSize": { "_": 16, "xs": 18 } }` (responsive resolution happens in CSS generation)
+
+#### Scenario: Skip property with template literal expression
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator encounters `{ animation: \`${flow} 5s\`, color: 'red' }`
+- **THEN** it SHALL skip `animation`, produce `{ "color": "red" }`, and report a skip warning for `animation`
+
+#### Scenario: Skip property with variable reference
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator encounters `{ color: someVariable, display: 'flex' }`
+- **THEN** it SHALL skip `color`, produce `{ "display": "flex" }`, and report a skip warning for `color`
+
+#### Scenario: Bail on spread (structural)
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator encounters `{ ...baseStyles, color: 'red' }`
+- **THEN** the entire object SHALL bail — spread affects object shape
+
+#### Scenario: Bail on computed key (structural)
+
+- **WHEN** the evaluator encounters `{ [dynamicKey]: 'red' }`
+- **THEN** the entire object SHALL bail — computed keys affect object shape
+
+### Requirement: Theme scale resolution
+
+The theme resolver SHALL accept a flattened theme JSON map (`{ "scale_name.key": "css_value" }`) AND a variable-name map (`{ "token_path": "css_variable_name" }`) and resolve style values against them. For each style property, the resolver SHALL look up the prop config to determine the CSS property name, scale name, and transform identifier. When a prop config has a `transform` field, the resolver SHALL emit the resolved value (after scale lookup) WITHOUT applying the transform, and SHALL include the transform name in the output metadata. Transform application is deferred to the Vite plugin's JS post-processing step. When a resolved string value (after scale lookup) contains `{...}` token alias patterns, the resolver SHALL resolve each alias using the variable-name map and flat value map before emitting the CSS declaration.
+
+#### Scenario: Resolve scale lookup
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `p` with value `8`, config says `{ property: "padding", scale: "space" }`, and theme has `{ "space.8": "0.5rem" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL produce `{ "padding": "0.5rem" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Resolve color mode variable
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `color` with value `"background"`, config says `{ property: "color", scale: "colors" }`, and theme has `{ "colors.background": "var(--colors-background)" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL produce `{ "color": "var(--colors-background)" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Emit raw value with transform metadata
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `width` with value `1`, config says `{ property: "width", transform: "size" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL emit `{ "width": 1 }` as the raw value AND include metadata `{ property: "width", transform: "size", raw_value: 1 }` for post-processing
+
+#### Scenario: Scale lookup before transform deferral
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `borderRadius` with value `4`, config says `{ property: "borderRadius", scale: "radii", transform: "size" }`, and theme has `{ "radii.4": "4" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL look up the scale first (getting `"4"`), then emit that as the raw value with transform metadata `{ property: "borderRadius", transform: "size", raw_value: "4" }` — scale resolution happens in Rust, transform application happens in JS
+
+#### Scenario: No scale defined, transform deferred
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `top` with value `100`, config says `{ property: "top", transform: "size" }` (no scale)
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL emit `{ "top": 100 }` as the raw value with transform metadata — no scale lookup, transform deferred
+
+#### Scenario: No transform, value passes through
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `display` with value `"flex"`, config says `{ property: "display" }` (no scale, no transform)
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL produce `{ "display": "flex" }` with no transform metadata
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-property expansion with transform deferred
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `inset` with value `0`, config says `{ properties: ["top","right","bottom","left"], transform: "size" }`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL emit raw values for all four properties with transform metadata for each
+
+#### Scenario: String value with token alias resolved during theme resolution
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `border` with value `"1px solid {colors.primary}"`, config has no scale for `border`, variable map has `"colors.primary" → "--colors-primary"`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL scan the string for `{...}` patterns, resolve `{colors.primary}` to `var(--colors-primary)`, and produce `{ "border": "1px solid var(--colors-primary)" }`
+
+#### Scenario: Token alias with alpha in compound value
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `boxShadow` with value `"0 4px 12px {colors.primary/20}"`, variable map has `"colors.primary" → "--colors-primary"`
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL resolve `{colors.primary/20}` to `color-mix(in srgb, var(--colors-primary) 20%, transparent)` and produce the complete compound CSS value
+
+### Requirement: CSS generation with @layer
+
+The CSS generator SHALL produce CSS structured with shared `@layer` declarations. Base styles go in `@layer base`, variant styles in `@layer variants`, state styles in `@layer states`. Responsive values SHALL be emitted as `@media` queries within their respective layers. Pseudo-selectors SHALL be emitted as nested selectors within class rules.
+
+#### Scenario: Generate base styles
+
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.styles({ padding: '0.5rem', display: 'inline-flex' })`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `@layer base { .animus-Name-hash { padding: 0.5rem; display: inline-flex; } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Generate variant styles
+
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.variant({ variants: { fill: { color: 'var(--colors-background)' }, stroke: { border: '1px solid' } } })`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `@layer variants { .animus-Name-hash--variant-fill { color: var(--colors-background); } .animus-Name-hash--variant-stroke { border: 1px solid; } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Generate state styles
+
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.states({ loading: { opacity: 0 }, disabled: { cursor: 'not-allowed' } })`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `@layer states { .animus-Name-hash--loading { opacity: 0; } .animus-Name-hash--disabled { cursor: not-allowed; } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Generate responsive @media
+
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.styles({ fontSize: { _: '1rem', sm: '1.125rem' } })` and breakpoints has `{ sm: 768 }`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain the default value outside any media query AND `@media (min-width: 768px) { .animus-Name-hash { font-size: 1.125rem; } }` within `@layer base`
+
+#### Scenario: Generate pseudo-selector
+
+- **WHEN** a chain has `.styles({ '&:hover': { color: 'var(--colors-primary)' } })`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `.animus-Name-hash:hover { color: var(--colors-primary); }` within `@layer base`
+
+#### Scenario: Generate variant with pseudo-selector
+
+- **WHEN** a variant option contains `{ '&:before': { content: '""', position: 'absolute' } }`
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL contain `.animus-Name-hash--variant-stroke::before { content: ""; position: absolute; }` within `@layer variants`
+
+#### Scenario: @layer declaration order
+
+- **WHEN** any extraction produces CSS
+- **THEN** the CSS output SHALL begin with `@layer global, base, variants, states, system, custom;` to establish layer precedence
+
+### Requirement: Source replacement
+
+The source replacer SHALL replace the entire chain expression (from `animus.` root to terminal) with a `createComponent()` call importing from `@animus-ui/system`, and add a CSS import for the extracted stylesheet. When ALL named bindings from an import statement have been replaced by extraction, the replacer SHALL remove that import statement from the output.
+
+#### Scenario: Replace asElement chain
+
+- **WHEN** source has `export const Button = animus.styles({...}).variant({...}).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the transformed source SHALL contain an import of `createComponent` from `@animus-ui/system`, an import of the CSS file, and `export const Button = createComponent('button', 'animus-Button-hash', { variants: { variant: { options: ['fill', 'stroke'], default: undefined } } })`
+
+#### Scenario: Preserve non-chain code
+
+- **WHEN** source has code before and after the chain expression (imports, other exports, JSX components)
+- **THEN** the transformed source SHALL preserve all non-chain code exactly, only replacing the chain expression itself
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple chains in one file
+
+- **WHEN** source has `const A = animus.styles({...}).asElement('div')` and `const B = animus.styles({...}).asElement('span')`
+- **THEN** both SHALL be replaced with separate `createComponent()` calls, and the CSS import SHALL include styles for both components
+
+#### Scenario: Dead import removal when all bindings replaced
+
+- **WHEN** source has `import { animus } from '@animus-ui/core'` and the `animus` binding's chain is fully extracted
+- **THEN** the transformed source SHALL NOT contain the `import { animus } from '@animus-ui/core'` statement
+
+#### Scenario: Partial import preservation
+
+- **WHEN** source has `import { animus, createParser } from '@animus-ui/core'` and only `animus` chains are extracted
+- **THEN** the transformed source SHALL preserve the import (because `createParser` may still be used)
+
+### Requirement: Deterministic class names
+
+Class names SHALL follow the pattern `animus-{binding}-{hash}` where `binding` is the JavaScript variable name the chain is assigned to, and `hash` is an 8-character content hash of the normalized chain descriptor.
+
+#### Scenario: Stable across builds
+
+- **WHEN** the same source file is extracted in two separate builds without changes
+- **THEN** the generated class names SHALL be identical
+
+#### Scenario: Unique per chain
+
+- **WHEN** two different chains exist in the same file with different styles
+- **THEN** each SHALL receive a distinct class name
+
+#### Scenario: Binding name in class
+
+- **WHEN** source has `const ButtonContainer = animus.styles({...}).asElement('button')`
+- **THEN** the class name SHALL start with `animus-ButtonContainer-`
+
+### Requirement: ChainDescriptor extension fields
+
+The `ChainDescriptor` struct SHALL include an `extends_from: Option<String>` field containing the identifier name of the parent component when the chain is an extension chain. For primary chains (rooted at `animus`), this field SHALL be `None`.
+
+#### Scenario: Primary chain has no extends_from
+
+- **WHEN** a chain starts from `animus`
+- **THEN** `extends_from` SHALL be `None`
+
+#### Scenario: Extension chain has extends_from
+
+- **WHEN** a chain starts from `Button.extend()`
+- **THEN** `extends_from` SHALL be `Some("Button")`
+
+### Requirement: Responsive detection uses theme-derived keys
+
+`is_responsive_value()` SHALL determine breakpoint key names from the serialized theme rather than a hardcoded constant. The function SHALL accept the set of valid breakpoint keys as a parameter (or access them from a shared context). An object value is responsive if ALL of its keys are either `_` (default) or members of the theme-derived breakpoint key set.
+
+#### Scenario: Standard breakpoints detected
+
+- **WHEN** theme defines breakpoints `xs, sm, md, lg, xl` and a style value is `{ _: "red", md: "blue" }`
+- **THEN** `is_responsive_value()` SHALL return true
+
+#### Scenario: Custom breakpoints detected
+
+- **WHEN** theme defines breakpoints `mobile, tablet, desktop` and a style value is `{ mobile: "8px", desktop: "16px" }`
+- **THEN** `is_responsive_value()` SHALL return true
+
+#### Scenario: Unknown keys rejected
+
+- **WHEN** theme defines breakpoints `sm, lg` and a style value is `{ sm: "8px", md: "16px" }`
+- **THEN** `is_responsive_value()` SHALL return false (`md` is not a defined breakpoint)
+
+#### Scenario: Empty breakpoint set
+
+- **WHEN** theme defines no breakpoints and a style value is `{ sm: "8px" }`
+- **THEN** `is_responsive_value()` SHALL return false (no keys are valid breakpoints)
+
+### Requirement: extract_breakpoints is key-agnostic
+
+`extract_breakpoints()` SHALL extract ALL keys matching the `breakpoints.*` prefix from the flattened theme without assuming specific key names. The resulting `BreakpointMap` SHALL contain exactly the keys present in the theme.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom keys extracted
+
+- **WHEN** the flattened theme contains `{ "breakpoints.mobile": "480", "breakpoints.desktop": "1024" }`
+- **THEN** `extract_breakpoints()` SHALL return a `BreakpointMap` with keys `mobile` and `desktop`
+
+#### Scenario: No breakpoints defined
+
+- **WHEN** the flattened theme contains no `breakpoints.*` entries
+- **THEN** `extract_breakpoints()` SHALL return an empty `BreakpointMap`
+
+### Requirement: Shared resolution context struct
+
+The extraction pipeline SHALL group shared immutable resolution parameters (config, theme, variable_map, contextual_vars, breakpoint_keys, selector_aliases) into a `ResolveContext<'a>` struct. `resolve_styles` SHALL accept this struct by reference instead of 6 individual parameters.
+
+#### Scenario: resolve_styles signature
+
+- **WHEN** `resolve_styles` is called from any call site (process_chain, css_generator, tests)
+- **THEN** it SHALL accept exactly 3 parameters: `(styles: &Value, ctx: &ResolveContext, auto_content: bool)`
+
+#### Scenario: Behavioral equivalence
+
+- **WHEN** all 196 existing Rust tests are run after the refactor
+- **THEN** every test SHALL pass without logic changes to test assertions or expectations
+
+### Requirement: Processing context struct
+
+The extraction pipeline SHALL group shared processing parameters (ResolveContext + group_registry + class_prefix) into a `ProcessingContext<'a>` struct. `process_chain` SHALL accept this struct by reference instead of individual parameters.
+
+#### Scenario: process_chain signature
+
+- **WHEN** `process_chain` is called from `extract()` or `analyze()`
+- **THEN** it SHALL accept exactly 4 parameters: `(chain, source, filename, &ctx)`
+
+### Requirement: Keyframe-collection discovery preserved for builder-bound factory
+
+The Rust extraction pipeline's existing named-export scan for `__brand === 'Keyframes'` SHALL continue to locate keyframe collections whose authoring site is the builder-bound `ds.createKeyframes({...})` factory. The returned branded shape is unchanged from the former standalone factory, so no discovery-path plumbing changes are required. The invariant: any module that exports a `createKeyframes`-returned collection as a named export (`export const animations = ds.createKeyframes({...})`) is discoverable by the existing scan.
+
+Consumer contract: the `createKeyframes` return value MUST be assigned to a module-scope named export for the extractor to find it. Collections held in module-scope `const` bindings without export, or in non-top-level scope, remain outside the extractor's discovery path (same constraint as the standalone factory had).
+
+#### Scenario: Bound-factory collection is discovered via named-export scan
+
+- **WHEN** a module contains `export const animations = ds.createKeyframes({ pulse: {...} })`
+- **AND** a sibling component's `ds.styles()` declaration includes `animationName: animations.pulse`
+- **THEN** the extractor SHALL resolve the `animations.pulse` reference to the FNV-hashed name `animus-kf-<hash>`
+- **AND** the consuming component's emitted CSS SHALL contain `animation-name: animus-kf-<hash>` with no unresolved placeholder
+
+#### Scenario: FNV hash stability across the former standalone and the bound factory
+
+- **WHEN** the same frame body content is authored via `ds.createKeyframes({...})` in one module
+- **AND** the same frame body content were historically authored via the standalone `keyframes({...})` in another module
+- **THEN** the extractor SHALL produce identical FNV-hashed names for both
+- **AND** the emitted `@keyframes` block SHALL be byte-identical (dedupe holds across the surface change)
+
+#### Scenario: No cross-package keyframe propagation through `includes()`
+
+- **WHEN** a consuming system is built with `createSystem({ includes: [libDsSystem] })`
+- **AND** `libDs` declares its own keyframe collection as a named export
+- **THEN** cross-package keyframe references SHALL continue to resolve via regular TypeScript named imports (`import { animations } from 'libDs'`)
+- **AND** `includes()` SHALL NOT extend to carry keyframe collections across system boundaries — propagation is handled by the existing import/named-export mechanism, not by builder semantics

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: NAPI loadSystemModule function
+
+The extraction crate SHALL expose a NAPI function `loadSystemModule(systemPath, rootDir, exportName?)` that reads a TypeScript system file, strips types, resolves dependencies, executes the module, and returns serialized system configuration. The function SHALL be synchronous from the caller's perspective.
+
+#### Scenario: Load a standard system file
+
+- **WHEN** `loadSystemModule("src/ds.ts", "/project/root")` is called with a valid system file that exports a SystemInstance and theme
+- **THEN** it returns a `SystemConfig` object with all config fields populated (propConfig, groupRegistry, scalesJson, variableMapJson, variableCss, contextualVarsJson)
+
+#### Scenario: Load with explicit export name
+
+- **WHEN** `loadSystemModule("src/ds.ts", "/project/root", "ds")` is called with an explicit export name
+- **THEN** it uses the named export `ds` directly to call `.toConfig()`, without duck-typing iteration
+
+#### Scenario: System file with no SystemInstance export
+
+- **WHEN** `loadSystemModule` is called with a file that has no export with a `.toConfig()` method and no `exportName` specified
+- **THEN** it returns an error describing which exports were found and that none had `.toConfig()`
+
+#### Scenario: System file with no theme export
+
+- **WHEN** `loadSystemModule` is called with a file that has no export with a `.serialize()` method named `tokens` or `theme`
+- **THEN** it returns an error indicating no serializable theme was found
+
+### Requirement: OXC type-stripping for full modules
+
+The system loader SHALL use oxc_transformer to strip TypeScript type annotations from the system file and any .ts/.tsx dependencies before execution. The type-stripped output SHALL preserve all runtime semantics (imports, exports, expressions, function bodies).
+
+#### Scenario: TypeScript system file with type annotations
+
+- **WHEN** the system file contains `export const tokens: ShowcaseTheme = createTheme()...` and `declare module` blocks
+- **THEN** type annotations and ambient declarations are removed, runtime code is preserved, and the module executes correctly in rquickjs
+
+#### Scenario: JavaScript dependency file
+
+- **WHEN** a resolved dependency is a `.js` or `.mjs` file (built dist artifact)
+- **THEN** it is loaded as-is without OXC transformation
+
+### Requirement: Rust-side dependency resolution
+
+The system loader SHALL resolve all import specifiers in Rust before passing source to rquickjs. The rquickjs Resolver/Loader SHALL use pre-built HashMaps with no filesystem access from the JS engine.
+
+#### Scenario: Bare specifier with exports map
+
+- **WHEN** the system file contains `import { createSystem } from '@animus-ui/system'` and the package has an `exports` field
+- **THEN** Rust reads the package's `package.json`, follows the `exports` map's `import` condition (supporting nested condition objects), reads the resolved dist file, and provides it to rquickjs as a pre-loaded module
+
+#### Scenario: Subpath export resolution
+
+- **WHEN** the system file contains `import { space } from '@animus-ui/system/groups'`
+- **THEN** Rust follows the `exports["./groups"]` entry in `package.json` to resolve the subpath dist file
+
+#### Scenario: Package without exports field (module/main fallback)
+
+- **WHEN** the system file imports from a package whose `package.json` has no `exports` field but has `module` and/or `main`
+- **THEN** Rust falls back to the `module` field first, then `main`, to resolve the entry point
+
+#### Scenario: Relative import resolution
+
+- **WHEN** a dependency file contains `import { foo } from './utils'`
+- **THEN** Rust resolves the relative path against the importing file's directory, applying `.ts`/`.js`/`/index.ts`/`/index.js` extension resolution
+
+#### Scenario: Transitive dependency resolution
+
+- **WHEN** the system file imports package A which imports package B
+- **THEN** Rust recursively resolves and pre-loads all transitive dependencies before rquickjs execution begins
+
+### Requirement: rquickjs module execution
+
+The system loader SHALL execute the type-stripped system module in rquickjs with all dependencies pre-loaded. It SHALL traverse the module's exports to find the SystemInstance (via `.toConfig()`) and theme (via `.serialize()`).
+
+#### Scenario: Execute system with createTheme + createSystem chains
+
+- **WHEN** the system file calls `createTheme().addColors(...).addColorModes(...).addScale(...).build()` and `createSystem().addGroup(...).build()`
+- **THEN** rquickjs executes all chained method calls and the resulting objects are accessible from Rust
+
+#### Scenario: Extract global style blocks
+
+- **WHEN** the system file exports objects with `__brand === 'GlobalStyleBlock'`
+- **THEN** the loader identifies these exports and includes their `.styles` data in the returned config
+
+### Requirement: SystemConfig return type
+
+The NAPI function SHALL return a structured `SystemConfig` object (not raw JSON strings) with the following fields: `prop_config`, `group_registry`, `scales_json`, `variable_map_json`, `variable_css`, `contextual_vars_json`, `selector_aliases` (optional), `selector_order` (optional), `global_style_blocks` (optional).
+
+#### Scenario: Complete config extraction
+
+- **WHEN** the system file has a SystemInstance, theme with serialize(), selector aliases, and global styles
+- **THEN** all fields of SystemConfig are populated with the serialized values from `.toConfig()` and `.serialize()`
+
+#### Scenario: Optional fields absent
+
+- **WHEN** the system file has no selector aliases and no global style blocks
+- **THEN** `selector_aliases`, `selector_order`, and `global_style_blocks` are `None`/null

+## Purpose
+
+TBD - created by archiving change selector-aliases. Update Purpose after archive.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Callsite pseudo-state props on system components
+
+Components with `.system()` SHALL accept `_`-prefixed props at the callsite. Each pseudo-state prop SHALL accept the same prop interface as the component's system groups, wrapped in `Partial<>`.
+
+#### Scenario: Hover prop on a system component
+
+- **WHEN** a component is defined as `ds.styles({...}).system({ space: true, surface: true }).asElement('div')`
+- **AND** the consumer writes `<Box bg="surface" _hover={{ bg: 'primary' }} />`
+- **THEN** the component emits `background-color: var(--color-surface)` in `@layer system` and `&:hover { background-color: var(--color-primary) }` in `@layer system`
+
+#### Scenario: Disabled prop with compound selectors
+
+- **WHEN** the consumer writes `<Box _disabled={{ opacity: '0.4', pointerEvents: 'none' }} />`
+- **THEN** the component emits rules targeting `&:disabled`, `&[disabled]`, `&[aria-disabled="true"]`, and `&[data-disabled]` in `@layer system`
+
+### Requirement: Callsite pseudo-element props on system components
+
+Components with `.system()` SHALL accept `_before` and `_after` props at the callsite with auto-defaulted `content: ''`.
+
+#### Scenario: Before pseudo-element at callsite
+
+- **WHEN** the consumer writes `<Box _before={{ display: 'block', bg: 'primary', height: '2px' }} />`
+- **THEN** the component emits `&::before { content: ""; display: block; background-color: var(--color-primary); height: 2px }` in `@layer system`
+
+### Requirement: Callsite pseudo props on custom prop components
+
+Components with `.props()` SHALL accept `_`-prefixed props at the callsite, emitting in `@layer custom`.
+
+#### Scenario: Hover on custom prop component
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `.props({ fluid: { ... } }).asElement('div')` and the consumer writes `<Comp _hover={{ bg: 'surface' }} />`
+- **THEN** the hover rule emits in `@layer custom`
+
+### Requirement: Callsite pseudo props type safety
+
+The TypeScript types for `_`-prefixed callsite props SHALL be derived from the component's system group registration. Only props from registered groups SHALL appear in the pseudo-prop type.
+
+#### Scenario: Type-narrowed pseudo props
+
+- **WHEN** a component registers `.system({ space: true })` (only space group)
+- **THEN** `_hover` on that component accepts `{ p?, m?, px?, py?, ... }` but NOT `{ bg?, color?, ... }`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom selector aliases available at callsite
+
+- **WHEN** the system has `.addSelectors({ _open: '&[data-state="open"]' })`
+- **THEN** components from that system accept `_open={{ ... }}` as a callsite prop

+# selector-alias-registry Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+TBD - created by archiving change selector-aliases. Update Purpose after archive.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Built-in selector alias set
+
+The system SHALL ship a default set of `_`-prefixed selector aliases covering interactive pseudo-states, ARIA/data attribute states, pseudo-elements, and positional pseudo-classes. Each alias SHALL map to one or more CSS selectors.
+
+#### Scenario: Interactive pseudo-state aliases resolve to CSS selectors
+
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_hover: { bg: 'primary' }`
+- **THEN** the system emits `&:hover { background-color: var(--color-primary) }`
+
+#### Scenario: Compound disabled alias targets multiple selectors
+
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_disabled: { opacity: '0.4' }`
+- **THEN** the system emits rules for `&:disabled`, `&[disabled]`, `&[aria-disabled="true"]`, and `&[data-disabled]`, each containing `opacity: 0.4`
+
+#### Scenario: ARIA state aliases resolve to data and aria attributes
+
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_expanded: { height: 'auto' }`
+- **THEN** the system emits rules for `&[aria-expanded="true"]` and `&[data-expanded]`
+
+### Requirement: Pseudo-element content auto-default
+
+The system SHALL automatically inject `content: ''` for `_before` and `_after` alias blocks when the author does not provide an explicit `content` property. This auto-default SHALL NOT apply to raw `'&::before'` / `'&::after'` selector strings.
+
+#### Scenario: Auto-default content for \_before
+
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_before: { display: 'block', bg: 'primary', height: '2px' }`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS for `&::before` includes `content: ""`
+
+#### Scenario: Explicit content overrides auto-default
+
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_after: { content: '"→"', color: 'accent' }`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS for `&::after` contains `content: "→"` and does NOT inject an additional `content: ""`
+
+#### Scenario: Raw selector strings do not auto-default
+
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `'&::before': { display: 'block', bg: 'primary' }`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS for `&::before` does NOT include `content: ""`
+
+### Requirement: Prop shorthands resolve inside alias blocks
+
+Prop shorthand keys (`bg`, `p`, `mt`, `mx`, etc.) SHALL resolve to their mapped CSS properties inside `_`-prefixed alias blocks, with full token reference support.
+
+#### Scenario: Shorthand resolution in alias block
+
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_hover: { bg: 'surface', p: 16, borderColor: 'primary' }`
+- **THEN** the emitted `&:hover` block contains `background-color: var(--color-surface)`, `padding: 1rem`, and `border-color: var(--color-primary)`
+
+### Requirement: Aliases usable at every builder chain level
+
+Selector aliases SHALL be recognized in style objects at every position in the builder chain: `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.compound()`, `.states()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Alias in variant style object
+
+- **WHEN** a variant definition contains `danger: { borderColor: 'error', _hover: { borderColor: 'error.dark' } }`
+- **THEN** the hover rule emits in `@layer variants` alongside the variant's base styles
+
+#### Scenario: Alias in states style object
+
+- **WHEN** a state definition contains `disabled: { opacity: '0.4', _hover: { cursor: 'not-allowed' } }`
+- **THEN** the hover rule emits in `@layer states`
+
+### Requirement: Layer placement follows chain position
+
+The `@layer` for alias-emitted rules SHALL be determined by the builder chain method where the alias appears, NOT by the alias itself.
+
+#### Scenario: Same alias in different chain positions emits in different layers
+
+- **WHEN** `_hover: { bg: 'x' }` appears in `.styles()` AND `_hover: { bg: 'y' }` appears in `.variant()`
+- **THEN** the first emits in `@layer base` and the second emits in `@layer variants`
+
+### Requirement: User-extensible selector registry via addSelectors()
+
+`createSystem()` SHALL provide an `addSelectors()` method that accepts a `Record<string, string>` mapping alias names to CSS selector strings. User-provided aliases SHALL merge with built-in defaults. User aliases SHALL override built-in aliases of the same name.
+
+#### Scenario: Register a custom alias
+
+- **WHEN** the system is configured with `.addSelectors({ _open: '&[data-state="open"]' })`
+- **THEN** `_open: { display: 'block' }` in any style object emits `&[data-state="open"] { display: block }`
+
+#### Scenario: Override a built-in alias
+
+- **WHEN** the system is configured with `.addSelectors({ _disabled: '&:disabled, &[data-state="disabled"]' })`
+- **THEN** `_disabled` uses the user-provided selector list instead of the built-in default
+
+#### Scenario: Merged selector map available to extraction
+
+- **WHEN** a system has custom selectors registered
+- **THEN** the system manifest includes the full merged selector map for the extraction pipeline to consume
+
+### Requirement: Raw selector strings remain supported
+
+Raw `'&:...'` selector strings in style objects SHALL continue to work as before. Aliases are additive, not a replacement.
+
+#### Scenario: Raw selector alongside alias
+
+- **WHEN** a style object contains both `_hover: { color: 'primary' }` and `'&:focus-within': { outline: '2px solid' }`
+- **THEN** both rules emit correctly in the same layer
+
+### Requirement: Theme scale resolution inside selector-alias blocks for pass-through CSS props
+
+Inside `_`-prefixed selector-alias blocks nested within `.styles({...})` (e.g. `_hover`, `_focusVisible`, `_selected`), theme-scale-typed string values on pass-through CSS properties SHALL resolve via the theme scales to their CSS variable references. Pass-through CSS properties are CSS properties not registered in the system's propConfig but typable via `ThemedCSSProps` (e.g. `outlineColor`, `caretColor`, `accentColor`). Resolution SHALL use the scale appropriate to the CSS property family (color-family properties → `colors` scale; length properties → `space` scale; etc.).
+
+This requirement exists because propConfig-registered props (e.g. `color`, `bg`) already resolve inside aliased blocks via the existing scale-lookup pathway. Pass-through props were previously emitted as literal unresolved scale keys (e.g. `outline-color: primary;` instead of `outline-color: var(--color-primary);`), producing invalid CSS that silently fails in browsers despite typechecking via `ThemedCSSProps`.
+
+#### Scenario: outlineColor inside \_focusVisible resolves via colors scale
+
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_focusVisible: { outlineColor: 'primary' }` and the theme defines `colors.primary`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS for `&:focus-visible` contains `outline-color: var(--color-primary)` — NOT the literal `outline-color: primary;`
+
+#### Scenario: Pass-through color prop outside aliased block unaffected
+
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `{ outlineColor: 'primary' }` at the top level (no alias block)
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS contains `outline-color: var(--color-primary)` — existing behavior preserved, this requirement does not regress top-level resolution
+
+#### Scenario: Unknown scale key inside alias emits literal
+
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_focusVisible: { outlineColor: 'not-a-scale-key' }` and the theme does NOT define `colors.not-a-scale-key`
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS contains `outline-color: not-a-scale-key;` — bare unresolvable scale keys pass through as literals (consistent with the existing pass-through behavior for unknown keys at the top level)
+
+#### Scenario: propConfig-registered prop inside alias preserves existing behavior
+
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_hover: { color: 'primary' }` and `color` IS registered in propConfig
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS contains `&:hover { color: var(--color-primary) }` — existing behavior preserved, this requirement does not alter the propConfig-based resolution path
+
+#### Scenario: Token-ref delimiter syntax inside alias already resolves
+
+- **WHEN** a style object contains `_focusVisible: { outline: '2px solid {colors.primary}' }` (delimited `{scale.key}` token reference inside a shorthand string value)
+- **THEN** the emitted CSS contains `&:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid var(--color-primary) }` — this is the existing behavior preserved by this requirement. The new behavior is scoped to bare scale keys on pass-through props, NOT delimited token refs which already resolve.

+### Requirement: No cross-package test imports
+
+No test file in `packages/system/`, `packages/extract/`, or `packages/vite-plugin/` SHALL import from `@animus-ui/core` or `@animus-ui/theming`. All test dependencies SHALL be satisfied by the consumer surface packages (`@animus-ui/system`, `@animus-ui/vite-plugin`) or package-internal code.
+
+#### Scenario: Extract fixture files use consumer API
+
+- **WHEN** searching all `.tsx` and `.ts` files in `packages/extract/tests/fixtures/`
+- **THEN** no file SHALL contain `import` from `@animus-ui/core`
+- **AND** no file SHALL contain `import` from `@animus-ui/theming`
+
+#### Scenario: Config serialization uses system exports
+
+- **WHEN** searching the config serialization file in extract tests
+- **THEN** prop group imports SHALL come from `@animus-ui/system/groups` (or equivalent monorepo path)
+- **AND** transform imports SHALL come from `@animus-ui/system` (or equivalent monorepo path)

+
+- **WHEN** searching all test files in `packages/system/__tests__/`
+- **THEN** no file SHALL contain imports from `@animus-ui/core` or `@animus-ui/theming`
+
+### Requirement: Shared extract test system
+
+The extract package tests SHALL have a shared test-system file that builds a real system via `createSystem()` from `@animus-ui/system`, providing a `ds` builder instance to all fixture files.
+
+#### Scenario: Test system builds via consumer API
+
+- **WHEN** the shared test-system file is evaluated
+- **THEN** it SHALL call `createSystem()` from `@animus-ui/system`
+- **AND** it SHALL add prop groups using `.addGroup()` with groups imported from `@animus-ui/system/groups`
+- **AND** it SHALL export a `ds` system instance for use by fixture files
+
+#### Scenario: Test system covers all fixture-needed prop groups
+
+- **WHEN** fixture files reference system props (space, color, layout, typography, etc.)
+- **THEN** the shared test-system SHALL include all prop groups required by the fixture set
+- **AND** the test theme SHALL include all scale entries referenced in fixture style values
+
+#### Scenario: Fixture files import from shared test system
+
+- **WHEN** a fixture file needs a builder chain root

+- **AND** it SHALL use `ds.styles({...}).variant({...}).asElement('div')` pattern (not `animus.styles()`)
+
+### Requirement: Config serialization from system source of truth
+
+The extract test config serialization SHALL derive its prop registry and group registry from `@animus-ui/system`'s exported groups, maintaining the programmatic-from-source-of-truth principle.
+
+#### Scenario: Serialized config matches system's groups
+
+- **WHEN** the config serialization runs
+- **THEN** the output SHALL contain all props defined in system's groups (space, color, typography, flex, grid, layout, border, shadows, background, positioning, transitions)
+- **AND** transform mappings SHALL reference the same transforms exported by system (size, borderShorthand, gridItem, gridItemRatio)
+
+#### Scenario: Config updates automatically with system changes
+
+- **WHEN** a prop is added to or removed from a group in `packages/system/src/groups/index.ts`
+- **THEN** the serialized config SHALL reflect the change without manual intervention

+### Requirement: Intra-file const identifier resolution
+
+The style evaluator SHALL resolve `Expression::Identifier` nodes that reference top-level `const` declarations in the same file. When the identifier's declaration has a statically-evaluable init expression, the evaluator SHALL use the resolved value instead of bailing.
+
+#### Scenario: Numeric const used as style value
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const GAP = 16;` and a style object contains `{ gap: GAP }`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL resolve `GAP` to `16` and extract `gap: 16` as a static style value
+
+#### Scenario: String const used as style value
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const COLOR = 'red';` and a style object contains `{ color: COLOR }`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL resolve `COLOR` to `'red'` and extract `color: red` as a static style value
+
+#### Scenario: Non-static const skips gracefully
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const val = getSpacing();` and a style object contains `{ gap: val }`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL skip the property with reason "variable reference (non-static)" because the init expression is a function call
+
+#### Scenario: let/var declarations are not resolved
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `let gap = 16;` and a style object contains `{ gap: gap }`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL skip the property because `let` bindings are mutable and cannot be statically guaranteed
+
+#### Scenario: Only module-scope declarations are collected
+
+- **WHEN** a `const` declaration appears inside a function body or block scope
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT be included in the static value map (only top-level `program.body` declarations are walked)
+
+### Requirement: Intra-file object reference resolution
+
+The style evaluator SHALL resolve identifiers that reference top-level `const` declarations whose init expression is an ObjectExpression. When `styles(config)` is called with an identifier argument instead of an inline object, the evaluator SHALL look up the identifier and evaluate the referenced object.
+
+#### Scenario: Object identifier as styles argument
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const config = { gap: 16, display: 'flex' };` and a chain contains `.styles(config)`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL resolve `config` to the object `{ gap: 16, display: 'flex' }` and extract both properties
+
+#### Scenario: Object with non-static properties
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const config = { gap: 16, color: someVar };` and a chain contains `.styles(config)`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL extract `gap: 16` and skip `color` with appropriate bail reason (per-property skip model preserved)
+
+#### Scenario: Object spread in referenced object still bails
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const config = { ...base, gap: 16 };` and a chain contains `.styles(config)`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL bail on the object due to spread element (existing behavior preserved)
+
+### Requirement: Cross-file imported const resolution
+
+The style evaluator SHALL resolve identifiers that reference imported `const` values from other files in the project. During Phase 1, each file's exported static values SHALL be collected into an export map. After binding resolution (Phase 2), imported identifiers SHALL be resolved by following the binding chain to the source file's export map.
+
+#### Scenario: Imported numeric const
+
+- **WHEN** file A contains `export const SPACING = 8;` and file B contains `import { SPACING } from './a'; styles({ padding: SPACING })`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL resolve `SPACING` to `8` via the cross-file export map and extract `padding: 8`

+#### Scenario: Imported object const
+
+- **WHEN** file A contains `export const baseStyles = { display: 'flex', gap: 16 };` and file B contains `import { baseStyles } from './a'; .styles(baseStyles)`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL resolve `baseStyles` to the object and extract both properties
+
+#### Scenario: Re-exported const
+
+- **WHEN** file A exports `SPACING`, file B re-exports it (`export { SPACING } from './a'`), and file C imports from B
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL follow the re-export chain (via existing binding resolution) and resolve to file A's value
+
+#### Scenario: Non-project import is not resolved
+
+- **WHEN** an import comes from a package (`import { X } from 'some-library'`)
+- **THEN** the identifier SHALL NOT be resolved (only project files with analyzed source are eligible) and the property SHALL skip with standard bail reason
+
+#### Scenario: Aliased import resolution
+
+- **WHEN** file A contains `export const GAP = 16;` and file B contains `import { GAP as spacing } from './a'; styles({ padding: spacing })`
+- **THEN** the evaluator SHALL resolve the local name `spacing` to the exported value `16`

+## Purpose
+
+Defines `packages/_assertions/` as the shared workspace package (`@animus-ui/assertions`) for assertion utilities imported by both `packages/*` post-build scripts and `e2e/*` fixture apps. Placement in `packages/` (with the `_` prefix convention denoting internal-not-published) preserves the one-way dependency rule established by `e2e-workspace-convention`: imports always flow top-down from `e2e/*` into `packages/*`, never the reverse. This capability documents the scaffold-only initial state; assertion utility code is out of scope here and lands in the `integration-test-infrastructure` change.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Shared Assertions Workspace Package
+
+A private workspace package SHALL exist at `packages/_assertions/` with the name `@animus-ui/assertions`. It SHALL be the shared home for assertion utilities importable by both post-build scripts (in `packages/*`) and consumer fixture apps (in `e2e/*`).
+
+#### Scenario: Package exists and is private
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer inspects `packages/_assertions/package.json`
+- **THEN** the name field is `@animus-ui/assertions`
+- **AND** `private: true` is set
+- **AND** no `publishConfig.access: public` is present
+
+#### Scenario: Registered in workspaces
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the root `package.json` `workspaces` array
+- **THEN** `packages/_assertions` is present (or resolved via a `packages/*` glob)
+
+### Requirement: Underscore-Prefix Convention Alignment
+
+`packages/_assertions/` SHALL follow the `packages/_*` underscore-prefix convention that denotes internal-not-published packages, joining `packages/_integration/`. Any new internal-not-published workspace package under `packages/` SHALL use the underscore prefix to maintain the convention.
+
+#### Scenario: Prefix indicates internal
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer encounters `packages/_assertions/`
+- **THEN** the underscore prefix signals internal-not-published by convention
+- **AND** the `private: true` flag confirms the signal
+
+### Requirement: Initial Scaffold Contents
+
+`packages/_assertions/` SHALL contain:
+
+- `package.json` — name, private flag, build scripts (`tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json`), dependencies as needed (likely `@animus-ui/properties` `workspace:*`, optionally `@animus-ui/system` `workspace:*`)
+- `src/index.ts` — a scaffold file containing a header comment and a near-empty export barrel (see Scaffold Header Banner requirement)
+- `tsconfig.json` and `tsconfig.build.json` following the pattern of other private packages
+- `CLAUDE.md` — a short note stating the scaffold-only status and pointing to `integration-test-infrastructure` as the change that populates the package
+
+No actual assertion utility code SHALL be added until `integration-test-infrastructure` lands.
+
+#### Scenario: Scaffold present, no content
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer inspects `packages/_assertions/src/`
+- **THEN** `index.ts` exists
+- **AND** it contains only an empty export or a single placeholder export
+- **AND** no assertion utility functions are yet defined
+
+#### Scenario: Scaffold CLAUDE.md explains status
+
+- **WHEN** an agent reads `packages/_assertions/CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** the file states "Scaffold only" and references `integration-test-infrastructure` as the source of forthcoming content
+
+### Requirement: Scaffold Header Banner
+
+`packages/_assertions/src/index.ts` SHALL begin with a header comment naming the package's scaffold-only status and directing readers to the package `CLAUDE.md` and the `integration-test-infrastructure` change. The header MUST appear before any export statement. This closes the rediscovery gap for agents who encounter the file without reading the neighboring `CLAUDE.md`.
+
+#### Scenario: Header comment present
+
+- **WHEN** an agent reads `packages/_assertions/src/index.ts`
+- **THEN** the first non-blank content is a comment identifying the file as scaffold-only AND referencing `CLAUDE.md` and `integration-test-infrastructure`
+- **AND** the agent receives the scaffold signal even without opening `CLAUDE.md`
+
+### Requirement: Assertion Library Does Not Import From e2e
+
+`packages/_assertions/` SHALL NOT import from any path under `e2e/`. This preserves the one-way dependency rule that makes `_assertions` safely consumable by both `packages/*` post-build scripts and `e2e/*` fixtures. If a utility in `_assertions` needs to describe a shape defined in `e2e/*` (e.g., a fixture manifest type), the shape SHALL be defined in `_assertions` and imported by `e2e/*` — never the reverse.
+
+#### Scenario: No e2e import
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer greps `packages/_assertions/src/**` for `from '..'` / `from '../..'` / `e2e/` / any path reaching outside `packages/`
+- **THEN** no import resolves to a path under `e2e/`
+
+#### Scenario: Types flow top-down
+
+- **WHEN** a utility in `_assertions` needs to describe a fixture shape
+- **THEN** the type is declared in `_assertions` and imported by the consuming `e2e/*` script
+- **AND** `_assertions` does NOT import the type from `e2e/*`
+
+### Requirement: Importable from Both Packages and e2e
+
+The package SHALL be importable as `@animus-ui/assertions` from:
+
+- Post-build scripts in `packages/*` (e.g., future TS rewrites of `scripts/assert-showcase.sh`)
+- Fixture apps in `e2e/*` (e.g., `e2e/next-app/scripts/` and future `e2e/vite-app/scripts/`)
+- Integration tests in `packages/_integration/`
+
+This pattern keeps all imports flowing top-down (from consumer toward shared infrastructure) and does not cross the `packages/ ← e2e/` one-way boundary.
+
+#### Scenario: e2e script imports assertions
+
+- **WHEN** a script at `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-next-build.ts` imports `@animus-ui/assertions`
+- **THEN** the import resolves via the workspace to `packages/_assertions/dist/index.js`
+
+#### Scenario: packages post-build script imports assertions
+
+- **WHEN** a future TS script at `scripts/assert-showcase.ts` imports `@animus-ui/assertions`
+- **THEN** the import resolves via the workspace without crossing into `e2e/`
+
+### Requirement: Build Pipeline Inclusion
+
+`packages/_assertions/` SHALL be included in the root `bun run build:ts` command (via workspace filter). Its build output SHALL be generated and type-definitions emitted on the same lifecycle as other TS packages.
+
+#### Scenario: Build output is produced
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run build:ts`
+- **THEN** `packages/_assertions/dist/index.js` and `packages/_assertions/dist/index.d.ts` are produced
+- **AND** importers in the workspace can resolve `@animus-ui/assertions`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Shared system prop map artifact
+
+The Rust extraction pipeline SHALL produce a global system prop map as a separate artifact from `analyzeProject`, alongside the existing manifest and CSS outputs. The map SHALL aggregate all `(propName, valueKey, className)` tuples across all components into a single `{ propName: { valueKey: className } }` structure.
+
+#### Scenario: Map includes all group prop usages
+
+- **WHEN** component A uses `.groups({ space: true })` with JSX `<A p={8} />` and component B uses `.groups({ space: true })` with JSX `<B p={8} mt={4} />`
+- **THEN** the shared map SHALL contain `{ p: { "8": "animus-u-xxx" }, mt: { "4": "animus-u-yyy" } }` — a single entry for `p=8` shared by both components
+
+#### Scenario: Map includes custom prop usages
+
+- **WHEN** a component uses `.props({ logoSize: { property: 'fontSize', scale: { sm: 32, md: 64 } } })` with JSX `<Logo logoSize="md" />`
+- **THEN** the shared map SHALL include `{ logoSize: { "md": "animus-u-zzz" } }` alongside any group prop entries
+
+#### Scenario: Map deduplicates identical CSS across props
+
+- **WHEN** prop `p` with value `8` and prop `m` with value `8` resolve to CSS with the same content hash
+- **THEN** both map entries SHALL reference the same class name (deduplication behavior unchanged from current per-component maps)
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive values in shared map
+
+- **WHEN** JSX contains `<Box mt={{ _: 8, sm: 16 }} />`
+- **THEN** the shared map SHALL contain `{ mt: { "_:8|sm:16": "animus-u-resp" } }` with the canonical serialized key
+
+### Requirement: Shared map virtual module
+
+The Vite plugin SHALL serve the shared system prop map as `virtual:animus/system-props`, a JavaScript module exporting two named bindings: `systemPropMap` (the full prop→value→className lookup table) and `systemPropGroups` (an object mapping each group name to an array of its prop names).
+
+#### Scenario: Virtual module resolution
+
+- **WHEN** a transformed file contains `import { systemPropMap } from 'virtual:animus/system-props'`
+- **THEN** the Vite plugin SHALL resolve this to the generated module containing `export const systemPropMap = { ... }`
+
+#### Scenario: systemPropGroups export available
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer imports `import { systemPropGroups } from 'virtual:animus/system-props'`
+- **THEN** the module SHALL export `systemPropGroups` as an object whose keys are group names and whose values are arrays of prop name strings (e.g., `{ space: ["p", "m", "mt", "mb", "ml", "mr", "px", "py"] }`)
+
+#### Scenario: Module content matches extraction output
+
+- **WHEN** the extraction pipeline produces a system prop map JSON `{"p":{"8":"animus-u-abc"}}`
+- **THEN** the virtual module SHALL contain `export const systemPropMap = {"p":{"8":"animus-u-abc"}};`
+
+#### Scenario: Module available in both dev and build
+
+- **WHEN** the Vite plugin runs in either `serve` (dev) or `build` (production) mode
+- **THEN** the `virtual:animus/system-props` module SHALL be resolvable and serve the current map
+
+### Requirement: HMR invalidation of shared map
+
+During dev mode HMR, the plugin SHALL invalidate the `virtual:animus/system-props` module when the system prop map changes, and SHALL NOT invalidate it when the map is unchanged.
+
+#### Scenario: New prop value triggers invalidation
+
+- **WHEN** a developer adds `<Box p={24} />` (a previously unused value) and saves the file
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL detect the new entry in the system prop map, invalidate `virtual:animus/system-props`, and Vite SHALL propagate the update to all importing modules
+
+#### Scenario: Unchanged map skips invalidation
+
+- **WHEN** a developer edits a component file but does not add, remove, or change any system prop values
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT invalidate `virtual:animus/system-props`
+
+#### Scenario: Theme change triggers invalidation
+
+- **WHEN** the theme/system file changes (geological reset) causing utility class hashes to change
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL invalidate `virtual:animus/system-props` with the new map
+
+#### Scenario: Component files not re-transformed on map change
+
+- **WHEN** the system prop map changes due to a new prop value in file A
+- **THEN** other component files (B, C, D) SHALL NOT be re-transformed by the Rust pipeline — only the virtual module updates, and Vite propagates re-renders through the import graph
+
+### Requirement: Transform emitter shared map import
+
+The Rust transform emitter SHALL add `import { systemPropMap } from 'virtual:animus/system-props'` to any transformed file that contains components with system props, and SHALL pass `systemPropMap` as a parameter to `createComponent`.
+
+#### Scenario: File with system props gets import
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains `const Box = animus.styles({...}).groups({ space: true }).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** the transformed output SHALL include `import { systemPropMap } from 'virtual:animus/system-props'` in the import block
+
+#### Scenario: File without system props omits import
+
+- **WHEN** a file contains only `const Label = animus.styles({...}).asElement('span')` with no `.groups()` or `.props()`
+- **THEN** the transformed output SHALL NOT include the `virtual:animus/system-props` import
+
+#### Scenario: Import deduplicated per file
+
+- **WHEN** a file defines multiple components with system props (Box and Stack both with `.groups()`)
+- **THEN** the transformed output SHALL include the `virtual:animus/system-props` import exactly ONCE
+
+#### Scenario: systemPropMap passed to createComponent
+
+- **WHEN** a component with system props is transformed
+- **THEN** the emitted code SHALL be `createComponent('div', 'animus-Box-hash', { systemPropNames: [...] }, systemPropMap)` — the shared map reference as the 4th argument

+## Purpose
+
+Post-build assertions SHALL validate that the showcase Vite build emits correctly-layered extraction CSS, resolved variable references, and no runtime CSS-in-JS dependencies. Assertions run against built output (not source) and use shared structural utilities from `@animus-ui/assertions` so layer ordering is checked via character-position comparison — the same code that validates the Next.js and Vite consumer fixtures.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Showcase build output contains valid extraction CSS
+
+After the showcase Vite build completes, the output CSS SHALL be validated using structural position-aware assertions, not shell `grep`. The assertion script SHALL use shared utilities from `@animus-ui/assertions`.
+
+#### Scenario: CSS file exists and is non-empty
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run test:showcase` completes
+- **THEN** at least one `.css` file SHALL exist in `packages/showcase/dist/assets/`
+- **AND** the file SHALL be non-empty
+
+#### Scenario: CSS layer ordering is structurally correct
+
+- **WHEN** the showcase CSS output is inspected
+- **THEN** `@layer` declaration SHALL precede `:root` variables
+- **AND** `:root` variables SHALL precede `@layer anm-global`
+- **AND** `@layer anm-global` SHALL precede `@layer anm-base`
+- **AND** layer positions SHALL be validated via character position comparison (not string containment)
+
+#### Scenario: No unresolved transform placeholders
+
+- **WHEN** the showcase CSS output is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT contain `__TRANSFORM__` strings
+
+#### Scenario: Variable CSS present
+
+- **WHEN** the showcase CSS output is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain `:root {` indicating CSS variable declarations were emitted
+
+#### Scenario: Component class names present
+
+- **WHEN** the showcase CSS output is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain `animus-` prefixed class names
+
+### Requirement: Showcase JS bundle has no runtime CSS dependencies
+
+The showcase JS output SHALL NOT import Emotion or other runtime CSS-in-JS libraries.
+
+#### Scenario: No Emotion imports in JS bundle
+
+- **WHEN** the showcase JS output files are inspected
+- **THEN** no file SHALL contain `@emotion` import references
+
+### Requirement: Assertion script is TypeScript
+
+The showcase post-build assertions SHALL be implemented as a TypeScript file using shared structural assertion utilities, replacing the shell script.
+
+#### Scenario: Shell script replaced
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify:assert:showcase` is executed
+- **THEN** it SHALL run a TypeScript assertion script (not `bash scripts/assert-showcase.sh`)
+- **AND** the script SHALL import assertion utilities from `@animus-ui/assertions`
+
+### Requirement: Showcase post-build assertion validates keyframes extraction
+
+The showcase post-build assertion script (`scripts/assert-showcase-build.ts`) SHALL invoke `assertKeyframesExtracted` from `@animus-ui/assertions` against the concatenated CSS output from `packages/showcase/dist/`. The showcase already exports an `animations` collection via `packages/showcase/src/ds.ts` (shipped in `rc-channel-graduation` §3B); this requirement adds positional post-build validation of that collection's extracted output.
+
+#### Scenario: Assertion script imports and invokes the helper
+
+- **WHEN** `scripts/assert-showcase-build.ts` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL import `assertKeyframesExtracted` from `@animus-ui/assertions`
+- **AND** it SHALL call `assertKeyframesExtracted(css, { insideLayer: 'anm-global' })` against the concatenated showcase CSS output
+
+#### Scenario: Build failure when showcase CSS loses keyframe emission
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify:showcase` is executed and the showcase output CSS is missing `@keyframes animus-kf-<hash>` blocks (regression in the `@animus-ui/vite-plugin` keyframes discovery path)
+- **THEN** `verify:assert:showcase` SHALL exit with non-zero status
+- **AND** the failure message SHALL identify the missing blocks via `AssertionError.details`
+
+#### Scenario: Build failure when showcase CSS exhibits px mangling on keyframe refs
+
+- **WHEN** the showcase output CSS contains any `animation-name: animus-kf-<hash>px` substring
+- **THEN** `verify:assert:showcase` SHALL exit with non-zero status
+- **AND** the failure message SHALL identify the mangled value

+## Purpose
+
+Shared, position-aware CSS assertion utilities SHALL live in `packages/_assertions/` (importable as `@animus-ui/assertions`) and replace shell `grep` / `find` for post-build validation. Character-position comparison lets assertions detect layer-order regressions that string containment cannot; centralizing the utilities also ensures Vite and Next consumer fixtures validate the same invariants against the same code.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Position-aware layer order validation
+
+A shared assertion utility SHALL validate that CSS output contains all expected `@layer` blocks in the correct structural order using character position comparison, not string containment.
+
+#### Scenario: Layer order assertion passes for correct CSS
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `@layer` declaration, `:root` variables, `@layer anm-global`, `@layer anm-base`, `@layer anm-variants` in that positional order
+- **THEN** the layer order assertion SHALL pass
+
+#### Scenario: Layer order assertion fails for misordered CSS
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `:root` variables AFTER `@layer anm-base` (as in the confirmed Lightning CSS cascade bug)
+- **THEN** the layer order assertion SHALL fail with a message identifying which layers are misordered
+
+#### Scenario: Layer order assertion fails for missing layers
+
+- **WHEN** CSS is missing an expected `@layer` block
+- **THEN** the assertion SHALL fail identifying the missing layer by name
+
+### Requirement: Class name format validation
+
+A shared assertion utility SHALL validate that CSS output contains class names matching the Animus naming convention.
+
+#### Scenario: Class names use animus prefix
+
+- **WHEN** the CSS output is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain class names matching the `animus-` prefix pattern
+
+### Requirement: Placeholder and token guards
+
+Shared assertion utilities SHALL check for absence of extraction artifacts that indicate pipeline failures.
+
+#### Scenario: No transform placeholders
+
+- **WHEN** the CSS output is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL NOT contain `__TRANSFORM__` strings
+
+#### Scenario: No unresolved token references
+
+- **WHEN** the CSS output is inspected against the theme's variable map
+- **THEN** no raw token path strings (e.g., `{colors.primary}`) SHALL appear — all MUST be resolved to `var(--*)` references
+
+#### Scenario: No Emotion runtime references
+
+- **WHEN** the JS output is inspected
+- **THEN** no file SHALL contain `@emotion` import references
+
+### Requirement: Assertion utilities are importable
+
+The structural CSS assertion utilities SHALL be importable by both `e2e/vite-app` assertions and `e2e/next-app` assertions as a shared workspace module.
+
+#### Scenario: Shared utility location
+
+- **WHEN** the assertion utilities are authored
+- **THEN** they SHALL live in `packages/_assertions/src/` (the post-topology home for shared assertions, established by `e2e-workspace-topology` and `shared-assertions-scaffold`)
+- **AND** they SHALL be importable as `@animus-ui/assertions` from any `e2e/*` workspace package, from any `packages/*` script, and from `packages/_integration/`
+- **AND** the import direction SHALL respect the one-way dependency rule (`e2e/* → packages/*`, never reverse)
+
+### Requirement: Assertions replace shell grep
+
+Post-build assertions for vite-app, showcase, and next-app SHALL use the structural assertion utilities instead of shell `grep`/`find` commands.
+
+#### Scenario: Shell scripts replaced
+
+- **WHEN** post-build assertion scripts are updated
+- **THEN** `scripts/assert-showcase.sh` and `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-next-build.sh` SHALL be replaced with TypeScript assertion scripts using the shared utilities
+- **AND** `bun run verify:assert:showcase` and `bun run verify:assert:next` SHALL invoke the TypeScript scripts via `bun run` (delegated through the existing `scripts/verify/assert-*.sh` precondition wrappers)
+
+### Requirement: Keyframes extraction assertion helper
+
+A shared assertion utility `assertKeyframesExtracted(css: string, config?: KeyframesAssertionConfig)` SHALL be exported from `@animus-ui/assertions` (originating in `packages/_assertions/src/assert-css.ts`). The helper SHALL validate, in a single call, that the CSS output of a fixture app correctly extracted keyframes via the `keyframes()` collection primitive. It SHALL throw `AssertionError` on the first failing invariant, returning `void` on success. It SHALL be a pure function over the input string with no I/O.
+
+The config type SHALL be:
+
+```ts
+export interface KeyframesAssertionConfig {
+  /** Minimum number of distinct @keyframes blocks expected. Default: 1. */
+  minBlocks?: number;
+  /** Minimum number of distinct animation-name references expected. Default: 1. */
+  minReferences?: number;
+  /** Prefix every emitted keyframe name must carry. Default: 'animus-kf-'. */
+  namePrefix?: string;
+  /** If set, every matched @keyframes block MUST appear inside this @layer span. */
+  insideLayer?: string;
+}
+```
+
+The helper SHALL enforce six invariants in fixed order (first failure throws):
+
+1. **Minimum block count**: at least `minBlocks` distinct `@keyframes <namePrefix>...` block declarations SHALL be present.
+2. **Minimum reference count**: at least `minReferences` distinct `animation-name: <value>` declarations whose value carries `namePrefix` SHALL be present. Keyword values (`none`, `initial`, `inherit`, `unset`, `revert`, `revert-layer`) SHALL be skipped during reference collection, case-insensitively.
+3. **No unit-fallback mangling**: no `animation-name: <namePrefix>...px` substring SHALL appear anywhere in the CSS (guards against `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES` regression). This invariant SHALL be checked BEFORE the dangling-reference check so the diagnostic identifies the `px` mangling directly rather than surfacing as a misleading "no matching block" error.
+4. **No dangling references**: every `animation-name: <namePrefix>...` value SHALL match the name of an emitted `@keyframes` block collected in invariant 1.
+5. **Cascade placement** (only when `insideLayer` is set): every matched `@keyframes` block offset SHALL fall within the opening and matching-close-brace span of SOME `@layer <insideLayer> { ... }` block in the CSS. Multiple `@layer <insideLayer>` blocks (from chunked output concatenation) SHALL all contribute valid spans. If no layer block with that name is present, invariant 5 SHALL fail.
+6. **Prefix conformance**: every emitted and referenced keyframe name involved in invariants 1–5 SHALL start with `namePrefix` (enforced by construction of invariants 1 and 2).
+
+#### Scenario: Passes for well-formed keyframes CSS
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `@layer anm-global { @keyframes animus-kf-abc { 0% {} 100% {} } @keyframes animus-kf-def { 0% {} 100% {} } }` followed by two rules each with `animation-name: animus-kf-abc` and `animation-name: animus-kf-def`
+- **THEN** `assertKeyframesExtracted(css, { minBlocks: 2, minReferences: 2, insideLayer: 'anm-global' })` SHALL NOT throw
+
+#### Scenario: Fails when no @keyframes blocks are present
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains only `animation-name: animus-kf-xyz` with no matching `@keyframes animus-kf-xyz` block
+- **THEN** `assertKeyframesExtracted` SHALL throw `AssertionError` whose message identifies the missing block count, and the helper SHALL throw before checking reference counts
+
+#### Scenario: Fails when an animation-name reference has no matching block
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `@keyframes animus-kf-abc { 0% {} }` plus a rule with `animation-name: animus-kf-xyz`
+- **THEN** `assertKeyframesExtracted` SHALL throw `AssertionError` identifying `animus-kf-xyz` as a dangling reference
+
+#### Scenario: Fails when unit-fallback mangles an identifier
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains a declaration `animation-name: animus-kf-1w7pb41px`
+- **THEN** `assertKeyframesExtracted` SHALL throw `AssertionError` whose message identifies the mangled value and flags that `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES` excluded `animation-name`
+
+#### Scenario: Skips CSS keyword values when counting references
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains a valid `@keyframes animus-kf-abc` block, one rule with `animation-name: animus-kf-abc`, and another rule with `animation-name: none`
+- **THEN** `assertKeyframesExtracted(css)` with the default `minReferences: 1` SHALL NOT throw (the keyword `none` SHALL NOT be counted toward the reference total)
+
+#### Scenario: Fails when a block lands outside insideLayer
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `@keyframes animus-kf-abc {}` at the top level (outside any `@layer` block) followed by `@layer anm-global {}` and a valid `animation-name: animus-kf-abc` reference
+- **THEN** `assertKeyframesExtracted(css, { insideLayer: 'anm-global' })` SHALL throw `AssertionError` identifying `animus-kf-abc` as outside the expected layer span
+
+#### Scenario: Fails when insideLayer block is entirely absent
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains valid `@keyframes animus-kf-abc {}` and `animation-name: animus-kf-abc` but NO `@layer anm-global {}` block
+- **THEN** `assertKeyframesExtracted(css, { insideLayer: 'anm-global' })` SHALL throw `AssertionError` stating that the layer block was not found
+
+#### Scenario: Honors custom namePrefix
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `@keyframes custom-abc {}` + `animation-name: custom-abc` and `assertKeyframesExtracted(css, { namePrefix: 'custom-' })` is called
+- **THEN** the helper SHALL NOT throw (prefix matching is configurable)
+
+#### Scenario: Unit tests cover every failure mode
+
+- **WHEN** `packages/_assertions/__tests__/assert-css.test.ts` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain at least one failing-input test for each of invariants 1–5, plus at least one passing-input test, covering the `insideLayer` on/off cases and the keyword-skip edge case

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Rust crate returns per-layer CSS sheets
+
+The `UniverseManifest` returned by `analyze_project` SHALL include a `sheets` field containing individual CSS strings for each layer: `declaration`, `base`, `variants`, `states`, `system`, and `custom`. When compose families exist, the `variants` and `compounds` sheet strings SHALL include sublayer wrappers (`@layer standalone { ... }` and `@layer composed { ... }`). The `sheets` field SHALL be derived from per-component fragments via pre-allocated concatenation in topological order.
+
+#### Scenario: Manifest includes structured sheets
+
+- **WHEN** `analyze_project` is called with valid file entries
+- **THEN** the returned manifest JSON includes a `sheets` object with string fields: `declaration`, `base`, `variants`, `states`, `system`, `custom`
+
+#### Scenario: Sheets derived from fragments
+
+- **WHEN** `sheets.base` is computed
+- **THEN** it SHALL be the concatenation of all per-component base fragments in topological order, produced via a pre-allocated fold (`String::with_capacity(total_bytes)`)
+
+#### Scenario: Sheets content matches concatenated CSS
+
+- **WHEN** all sheet strings are concatenated in order (declaration + base + variants + states + system + custom)
+- **THEN** the result is identical to the `css` field content
+
+#### Scenario: Variants sheet includes sublayer structure
+
+- **WHEN** compose families exist in the project
+- **THEN** `sheets.variants` SHALL contain `@layer standalone, composed;` followed by `@layer standalone { ... }` and `@layer composed { ... }` blocks inside the `@layer variants { }` wrapper
+
+#### Scenario: Variants sheet flat without compose
+
+- **WHEN** no compose families exist
+- **THEN** `sheets.variants` SHALL contain variant rules directly inside `@layer variants { }` with no sublayer structure
+
+#### Scenario: Empty layers produce empty strings
+
+- **WHEN** no components have variant styles
+- **THEN** `sheets.variants` is an empty string
+- **AND** `sheets.declaration` still includes `variants` in the layer ordering
+
+### Requirement: Backward-compatible css field preserved
+
+The `UniverseManifest` SHALL continue to include the `css` field as the full concatenation of all layer CSS, maintaining backward compatibility with existing consumers.
+
+#### Scenario: css field unchanged for existing consumers
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer reads `manifest.css`
+- **THEN** the content is identical to the previous behavior (layer declaration + base + variants + states + system + custom concatenated)
+
+### Requirement: Layer declaration is a standalone sheet
+
+The `sheets.declaration` field SHALL contain exactly the `@layer` ordering statement and nothing else, allowing consumers to place it independently of the component CSS.
+
+#### Scenario: Declaration contains only the ordering statement
+
+- **WHEN** `sheets.declaration` is read
+- **THEN** it contains `@layer global, base, variants, states, system, custom;` followed by a newline
+- **AND** it does not contain any rule blocks

+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Stylesheet assembly produces structured parts for selective post-processing
+
+The `assembleStylesheet` function SHALL support a `split` option that returns structured parts enabling callers to protect the `@layer` declaration and variable CSS from post-processing transforms that destructively rewrite CSS structure. The three-part split separates declaration, variables, and body so that only body content (which benefits from autoprefixing) passes through CSS post-processors.
+
+#### Scenario: Split return provides three parts
+
+- **WHEN** `assembleStylesheet` is called with `{ split: true }` along with `layers`, `variableCss`, `globalCss`, and `componentCss`
+- **THEN** it SHALL return `{ declaration: string; variables: string; body: string }`
+- **AND** `declaration` SHALL contain only the `@layer` ordering statement
+- **AND** `variables` SHALL contain only the variable CSS (`:root` blocks + color mode selectors)
+- **AND** `body` SHALL contain global CSS followed by component CSS
+- **AND** no content SHALL be duplicated across the three parts
+
+#### Scenario: Declaration contains all layer names
+
+- **WHEN** custom layers `['reset', 'anm-global', 'anm-base', ..., 'overrides']` are provided
+- **THEN** the declaration SHALL contain `@layer reset, anm-global, anm-base, anm-variants, anm-compounds, anm-states, anm-system, anm-custom, overrides;`
+- **AND** no layer name SHALL be omitted regardless of whether matching `@layer` blocks exist in the body
+
+#### Scenario: Variable CSS isolated from body
+
+- **WHEN** `variableCss` contains `:root { --color-primary: red; }` and `[data-color-mode="dark"] { --color-primary: blue; }`
+- **THEN** `variables` SHALL contain the full variable CSS
+- **AND** `body` SHALL NOT contain any `:root` variable declarations or color mode selectors
+
+#### Scenario: Body strips embedded layer declaration from component CSS
+
+- **WHEN** component CSS from Rust contains an embedded `@layer ...;` declaration line
+- **THEN** the `body` field SHALL have that declaration stripped (via `stripLeadingLayerDeclaration`)
+- **AND** only the `declaration` field SHALL contain the `@layer` ordering statement
+
+#### Scenario: Concatenated split equals non-split return
+
+- **WHEN** `assembleStylesheet` is called with identical options, once with `split: true` and once without
+- **THEN** joining `declaration + '\n' + variables + '\n' + body` from the split form SHALL produce the same content as the non-split string return
+
+### Requirement: Backward compatibility for assembleStylesheet consumers
+
+The `assembleStylesheet` function SHALL maintain backward compatibility for existing consumers that expect a string return.
+
+#### Scenario: Default call returns string
+
+- **WHEN** `assembleStylesheet` is called without a `split` option
+- **THEN** it SHALL return a single concatenated CSS string (declaration + variables + global + component)
+- **AND** existing consumers SHALL continue to work without changes

+## Purpose
+
+The `system-builder` capability defines the `createSystem({...})` factory and its `.build()` return shape. The builder accumulates prop registries, groups, and selectors via a chainable API and produces the consumer-facing `{ system, createGlobalStyles, createKeyframes }` bundle that downstream code destructures to author components, global-style blocks, and keyframe collections.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Concentric builder with sequential generic inference
+
+The system builder SHALL provide a fluent API with callback-isolated phases: `.withProperties()` and `.withGlobalStyles()`. The `.withProperties()` phase SHALL capture its generics via TypeScript's sequential method-chain inference. The terminal `.build()` SHALL return a `SystemInstance<PropRegistry, GroupRegistry>`.
+
+#### Scenario: Full system definition
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createSystem().withProperties(p => p.addGroup('surface', { color, border }).build()).withGlobalStyles({...}).build()`
+- **THEN** the return type SHALL be `SystemInstance<PropReg, GroupReg>` where PropReg/GroupReg are inferred from the property builder callback return
+
+#### Scenario: Property phase captures PropRegistry and GroupRegistry
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.withProperties(p => p.addGroup('surface', { color, border }).addGroup('text', { typography }).build())`
+- **THEN** PropRegistry SHALL be the union of all prop definitions across groups, and GroupRegistry SHALL map group names to their prop keys
+
+#### Scenario: No token phase
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createSystem()`
+- **THEN** the returned builder SHALL NOT have a `.withTokens()` method. Theme construction is handled separately by the consumer.
+
+### Requirement: Property builder accumulates groups
+
+The `.withProperties()` callback SHALL receive a PropertyBuilder instance with `.addGroup(name, props)` method. Each `.addGroup()` call SHALL accumulate into PropRegistry and GroupRegistry generics.
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple groups registered
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `p.addGroup('surface', { color, border }).addGroup('text', { typography })`
+- **THEN** PropRegistry SHALL contain all props from color, border, and typography, and GroupRegistry SHALL map `surface → ['color', 'borderColor', ...]` and `text → ['fontFamily', 'fontSize', ...]`
+
+#### Scenario: Property builder terminal
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.build()` on the PropertyBuilder
+- **THEN** the accumulated PropRegistry and GroupRegistry SHALL be captured and returned to the SystemBuilder
+
+### Requirement: SystemInstance provides builder chain entry
+
+The `.build()` terminal on SystemBuilder SHALL return a SystemInstance that exposes the Animus builder chain methods directly (`.styles()`, `.variant()`, etc.) with PropRegistry and GroupRegistry pre-filled from the system definition. Scale resolution uses the augmented `Theme` interface.
+
+#### Scenario: Component creation from system instance
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `ds.styles({ bg: 'primary' }).groups(['surface']).asElement('div')`
+- **THEN** `bg` SHALL autocomplete with values from the augmented `Theme['colors']` and `groups` SHALL only accept keys from `GroupRegistry`
+
+#### Scenario: Scale resolution via module augmentation
+
+- **WHEN** the consumer has augmented `Theme` with `{ colors: { primary: string; secondary: string } }` and a prop definition has `scale: 'colors'`
+- **THEN** autocomplete for that prop SHALL show `'primary' | 'secondary'` plus raw CSS values
+
+### Requirement: Augmentable Theme interface
+
+The system package SHALL export an augmentable `Theme` interface from `@animus-ui/system`. Consumers extend this via module augmentation to enable compile-time scale constraints in `.styles()`, `.variant()`, and `.states()` CSS objects.
+
+#### Scenario: Module augmentation
+
+- **WHEN** consumer writes `declare module '@animus-ui/system' { interface Theme extends ShowcaseTheme {} }` in their system definition file
+- **THEN** all CSS object types in the builder chain SHALL constrain property values to the theme's scale keys
+
+#### Scenario: Theme interface is empty by default
+
+- **WHEN** `Theme` is NOT augmented
+- **THEN** it SHALL extend `BaseTheme` with no additional properties, and CSS object values SHALL fall back to standard CSS property types
+
+#### Scenario: Theme exported from package index
+
+- **WHEN** consumer imports from `@animus-ui/system`
+- **THEN** `Theme` SHALL be available as a named type export alongside `BaseTheme`, `Breakpoints`, and `TokenScales`
+
+#### Scenario: ThemedCSSProps and ThemedScale exported
+
+- **WHEN** the system package is consumed as a library
+- **THEN** `ThemedCSSProps`, `ThemedCSSPropMap`, `ThemedScale`, and `ThemedScaleValue` SHALL be exported from the package index to satisfy TS2742 declaration portability requirements
+
+### Requirement: Serialization excludes tokens
+
+The `serialize()` method on SystemInstance SHALL return `{ propConfig, groupRegistry, transforms, globalStyles }`. It SHALL NOT include a `tokens` field. The plugin loads tokens independently from the module's named exports.
+
+#### Scenario: serialize() return shape
+
+- **WHEN** `ds.serialize()` is called
+- **THEN** the return SHALL contain `propConfig` (JSON string), `groupRegistry` (JSON string), `transforms` (record of named transforms), and optionally `globalStyles` — but NOT `tokens`
+
+### Requirement: System package exports
+
+The `@animus-ui/system` package SHALL export `createComponent` alongside the existing builder chain, theme construction, and type exports. The package SHALL declare `react` as a peer dependency.
+
+#### Scenario: Package exports include createComponent
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer imports from `@animus-ui/system`
+- **THEN** `createComponent` SHALL be available as a named export
+
+#### Scenario: React peer dependency
+
+- **WHEN** `@animus-ui/system` is installed
+- **THEN** the package SHALL require `react` as a peer dependency with range `^18.0.0 || ^19.0.0`
+
+#### Scenario: No runtime package dependency
+
+- **WHEN** `@animus-ui/system/package.json` is inspected
+- **THEN** `@animus-ui/runtime` SHALL NOT appear in `dependencies` or `peerDependencies`
+
+### Requirement: Builder-bound `createKeyframes` factory with theme-typed frame bodies
+
+The `createSystem(config?).build()` return SHALL expose a `createKeyframes` method alongside the existing `system` and `createGlobalStyles` fields. The factory SHALL accept a record of named keyframes where each keyframe is a `Record<StopKey, ThemedCSSProps<Theme>>` — `StopKey` is a percentage literal (`'0%'`, `'50%'`, `'100%'`, etc.), a keyword (`'from'`, `'to'`), or a comma-separated list of either. Stop body values SHALL use the same `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>` type as `.styles()`, so theme-token references (`{colors.*}`, `{space.*}`, scale-token keys) autocomplete and type-check inside stop bodies. The factory SHALL return a branded `Keyframes` collection: `{ __brand: 'Keyframes', __frames, ...refs }` where each ref carries `__brand: 'KeyframeRef'` and coerces to the resolved FNV-hashed identifier via `toString()`/`valueOf()`.
+
+Names SHALL be generated at authoring time via a deterministic FNV-1a content hash over the serialized frame body, producing `animus-kf-<hash>` identifiers. Identical frame bodies SHALL dedupe into a single `@keyframes` emission naturally. The frame body name depends only on content, not on the factory's binding site.
+
+#### Scenario: Build return exposes `createKeyframes`
+
+- **WHEN** `const { system, createKeyframes, createGlobalStyles } = createSystem({...}).build()` is evaluated
+- **THEN** `createKeyframes` SHALL be a function
+
+#### Scenario: Frame body types are theme-parameterized via `ThemedCSSProps`
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer writes `ds.createKeyframes({ pulse: { '0%': { color: '{colors.primary}' } } })` where `ds` is derived from a theme that declares `colors.primary`
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL accept the `{colors.primary}` value with precise typing
+- **AND** writing `{colors.nonexistent}` SHALL produce a type error at the call site
+- **AND** the stop body SHALL accept the same vocabulary as `.styles()` body values (via `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>` reuse)
+
+#### Scenario: Returned collection preserves brand and ref shape
+
+- **WHEN** `const anims = ds.createKeyframes({ fadeIn: {...}, pulse: {...} })` is called
+- **THEN** `anims.__brand` SHALL equal `'Keyframes'`
+- **AND** `anims.fadeIn` SHALL be a `KeyframeRef<'fadeIn'>` with `__brand === 'KeyframeRef'` and a `toString()` returning the resolved FNV-hashed name
+
+#### Scenario: FNV hash stability across binding sites
+
+- **WHEN** the same frame body `{ '0%': { opacity: 0 }, '100%': { opacity: 1 } }` is authored via `ds.createKeyframes({...})` on any system
+- **THEN** the resolved keyframe name SHALL equal the FNV-1a hash produced from the serialized frame body content
+- **AND** identical frame bodies across different call sites SHALL dedupe into a single `@keyframes` emission
+
+### Requirement: Keyframes frame body vocabulary
+
+Frame bodies passed to `ds.createKeyframes({...})` SHALL accept CSS property names (camelCase; converted to kebab-case at emission), raw CSS values, theme-token references in the `{scale.key}` form (e.g., `{colors.primary}`, `{shadows.glow-text}`), and prop shorthand that the surrounding system's prop registry resolves (e.g., `bg` → `background-color` via the prop config when the theme flows through `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>`). Frame bodies SHALL NOT resolve bare scale keys without the `{scale.key}` delimiter.
+
+#### Scenario: Token ref inside frame body
+
+- **WHEN** a frame body contains `textShadow: '{shadows.glow-text}'` and the consumer's theme has `shadows.glow-text → 'var(--shadow-glow-text)'`
+- **THEN** the emitted frame SHALL contain `text-shadow: var(--shadow-glow-text)`
+
+#### Scenario: Nested token-ref color-mix inside frame body
+
+- **WHEN** a frame body contains `boxShadow: '0 0 8px {colors.accent/40}'`
+- **THEN** the emitted frame SHALL contain the resolved alpha-color-mix expression
+
+#### Scenario: Bare scale key without delimiter is NOT resolved
+
+- **WHEN** a frame body contains `textShadow: 'glow-text'` (bare, no `{scale.key}` syntax)
+- **THEN** the emitted frame SHALL contain the literal string `glow-text` (unresolved)
+- **AND** this SHALL be documented as the required authoring pattern for keyframes (use `{shadows.glow-text}` instead)

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Theme self-serialization
+
+The built theme's serialization method SHALL be `.serialize()`. It SHALL flatten nested theme data at the serialization boundary, converting dot-path keys to dash-join for CSS variable names.
+
+#### Scenario: tokens.serialize() returns pipeline-ready JSON
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `tokens.serialize()` on a theme built via the new builder chain
+- **THEN** the return value SHALL contain `{ scalesJson, variableMapJson, variableCss, contextualVarsJson }`
+
+#### Scenario: scalesJson uses dot-path keys
+
+- **WHEN** theme has nested colors `{ gray: { 50: '#fafafa' } }`
+- **THEN** `scalesJson` SHALL contain `{ "colors.gray.50": "var(--color-gray-50)" }` — dot-path key, dash-join CSS var name
+
+#### Scenario: variableMapJson maps dot-path to CSS var name
+
+- **WHEN** theme has emitted colors
+- **THEN** `variableMapJson` SHALL contain `{ "colors.ember": "--color-ember" }`
+
+#### Scenario: variableCss uses dash-join names
+
+- **WHEN** theme has nested mode aliases
+- **THEN** `variableCss` SHALL contain dash-join CSS variable names in `:root` and `[data-color-mode]` blocks
+
+#### Scenario: contextualVarsJson unchanged
+
+- **WHEN** theme has contextual vars `{ colors: ['current-bg'] }`
+- **THEN** `contextualVarsJson` SHALL contain `{ "colors": ["current-bg"] }`
+
+### Requirement: System instance method rename
+
+The SystemInstance serialization method SHALL be renamed from `.serialize()` to `.toConfig()` to disambiguate from the theme's `.serialize()`.
+
+#### Scenario: ds.toConfig() returns system config
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `ds.toConfig()`
+- **THEN** the return value SHALL contain `{ propConfig, groupRegistry, transforms }`
+
+#### Scenario: SerializedConfig type unchanged
+
+- **WHEN** build tooling imports `SerializedConfig` from `@animus-ui/system`
+- **THEN** it SHALL receive the type `{ propConfig: string; groupRegistry: string; transforms: Record<string, NamedTransform> }`
+
+### Requirement: SerializedTheme type naming
+
+The type for theme serialization SHALL remain `SerializedTheme`.
+
+#### Scenario: SerializedTheme exported from system
+
+- **WHEN** build tooling imports `SerializedTheme` from `@animus-ui/system`
+- **THEN** it SHALL receive `{ scalesJson: string; variableMapJson: string; variableCss: string; contextualVarsJson: string }`
+
+### Requirement: System module export detection
+
+The plugin's `loadSystem` subprocess SHALL detect SystemInstance exports by interface (`toConfig()` method presence), not by name convention.
+
+#### Scenario: Non-standard export name
+
+- **WHEN** the system file exports `export const myDs = createSystem().build()` (not named `ds`, `default`, or `system`)
+- **THEN** the subprocess SHALL detect `myDs` as a valid SystemInstance via its `.toConfig()` method
+
+#### Scenario: No valid export found
+
+- **WHEN** no export satisfies `.toConfig()`
+- **THEN** the subprocess SHALL throw with a message listing all found export names and stating that none had a `.toConfig()` method
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple candidates
+
+- **WHEN** multiple exports satisfy `.toConfig()`
+- **THEN** the subprocess SHALL throw with a message listing the candidate export names and asking the user to specify which one
+
+### Requirement: Error message accuracy
+
+Error messages from `loadSystem` SHALL reference the actual method being checked (`.toConfig()`), not a different method (`.serialize()`).
+
+#### Scenario: Error message content
+
+- **WHEN** the system module fails to load or has no valid SystemInstance
+- **THEN** the error message SHALL reference `.toConfig()` and SHALL NOT reference `.serialize()`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Three-tier testing model
+
+The test infrastructure SHALL follow a three-tier model: unit tests (bottom-up), type tests (compile-time), and integration/canary tests (top-down). Each tier SHALL use distinct assertion tools appropriate to its purpose.
+
+#### Scenario: Unit tests use explicit assertions
+
+- **WHEN** a test validates individual function behavior (e.g., createClassResolver, variant resolution, theme builder)
+- **THEN** the test SHALL use explicit matchers (`.toBe()`, `.toEqual()`, `.toContain()`) rather than snapshots
+- **AND** the test SHALL not depend on other test tiers passing
+
+#### Scenario: Type tests use compile-time assertions
+
+- **WHEN** a test validates type-level behavior (API surface narrowness, generic inference)
+- **THEN** the test SHALL use `tsc --noEmit` with `Assert<>`, `IsExact<>`, and `@ts-expect-error` patterns
+- **AND** the test SHALL live in `.test-d.tsx` files under the system package
+
+#### Scenario: Integration tests use inline snapshots plus explicit assertions
+
+- **WHEN** a test validates the full extraction pipeline (source file → NAPI → CSS + transformed JS)
+- **THEN** the test SHALL use `toMatchInlineSnapshot()` for structural output (layer ordering, class patterns, @media nesting)
+- **AND** the test SHALL use explicit matchers for semantic correctness (specific values, specific layers, specific class names)
+
+### Requirement: Snapshot policy — inline only
+
+All snapshot-based assertions SHALL use `toMatchInlineSnapshot()`. File-based snapshot directories (`__snapshots__/`) SHALL NOT exist in the repository for in-scope packages (system, extract, vite-plugin).
+
+#### Scenario: No file-based snapshots in system package
+
+- **WHEN** searching `packages/system/__tests__/__snapshots__/`
+- **THEN** the directory SHALL NOT exist
+
+#### Scenario: No file-based snapshots in extract package
+
+- **WHEN** searching `packages/extract/tests/__snapshots__/`
+- **THEN** the directory SHALL NOT exist
+
+#### Scenario: Inline snapshot size limit
+
+- **WHEN** an inline snapshot is written in a test file
+- **THEN** the snapshot content SHALL be focused on a single structural concern (e.g., one layer's CSS, one component's class pattern)
+- **AND** the snapshot SHOULD remain under approximately 30 lines
+
+### Requirement: Snapshots for structure, assertions for semantics
+
+Snapshots SHALL guard structural output stability (did the shape change?). Explicit assertions SHALL guard semantic correctness (is the right value in the right place?).
+
+#### Scenario: CSS layer ordering verified by snapshot
+
+- **WHEN** testing that extraction produces correctly layered CSS
+- **THEN** the layer ordering (`@layer global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom`) SHALL be verified via inline snapshot of the full CSS structure
+
+#### Scenario: Specific CSS values verified by explicit assertion
+
+- **WHEN** testing that a specific style value (e.g., `display: inline-flex`) appears in the correct layer
+- **THEN** the assertion SHALL use `.toContain()` or `.toBe()`, not a snapshot
+
+### Requirement: Convergence testing philosophy
+
+The unit tier and integration tier SHALL together cover the full behavior space through convergence. The "middle" (wiring between individual functions and the full pipeline) SHALL be validated implicitly by both tiers passing, without requiring explicit mocks or middleware tests.
+
+#### Scenario: No mock-based middleware tests
+
+- **WHEN** the test suite is reviewed for mock usage
+- **THEN** no test SHALL mock internal functions to test wiring between pipeline stages
+- **AND** pipeline correctness SHALL be validated by unit tests passing (bottom) plus integration tests passing (top)
+
+#### Scenario: Failure cascading provides diagnostic trace
+
+- **WHEN** a code change causes a pipeline regression
+- **THEN** unit test failures SHALL narrow the cause to specific functions
+- **AND** integration test failures SHALL confirm the pipeline-level impact
+- **AND** the combination of failures SHALL provide a diagnostic trace without requiring additional investigation
+
+### Requirement: Convergence requires shared fixtures
+
+The convergence testing philosophy SHALL require that unit and integration tiers share the SAME theme and system fixtures. Different fixtures across tiers undermines the convergence axiom by creating divergent coverage surfaces.
+
+#### Scenario: Both tiers use same theme
+
+- **WHEN** canary tests and integration tests are run
+- **THEN** both SHALL use the same `tokens.serialize()` output derived from the same `createTheme()` definition
+- **AND** both SHALL use the same `ds.serialize()` output derived from the same `createSystem()` definition
+
+### Requirement: Showcase serves as verified build proof
+
+The showcase build SHALL function as a verified integration proof — not just a build that succeeds or fails, but a build whose output is automatically checked for extraction correctness.
+
+#### Scenario: test:showcase includes output verification
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run test:showcase` completes
+- **THEN** it SHALL have run both the Vite build AND post-build assertion checks
+- **AND** a failure in output assertions SHALL cause the script to exit non-zero

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: from() composition entry point
+
+The ThemeBuilder SHALL provide a `.from(builtTheme)` method that seeds the builder with a built theme's raw config and advances the type-state to allow all augmentation methods.
+
+#### Scenario: from() loads library theme
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme().from(libTokens)`
+- **THEN** the builder SHALL contain all of libTokens' breakpoints, colors, modes, and scales
+
+#### Scenario: from() enables augmentation
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme().from(libTokens).addColors({ brand: { 500: '#new' } })`
+- **THEN** the builder SHALL deep-merge the new colors on top of the library's colors
+
+#### Scenario: from() enables selective override
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme().from(libTokens).addScale({ name: 'space', values: { 0: '0', 4: '0.25rem' } })`
+- **THEN** the consumer's space scale SHALL replace the library's space scale entirely
+
+#### Scenario: from() preserves all library config
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `createTheme().from(libTokens).build()` with no augmentation
+- **THEN** `theme.serialize()` output SHALL be identical to `libTokens.serialize()` output
+
+### Requirement: Deep merge semantics on augmentation
+
+When `add*` methods are called after `.from()` or after a prior `add*` call for the same piece, the inputs SHALL deep-merge with consumer values taking precedence.
+
+#### Scenario: addColors deep merges
+
+- **WHEN** library has `{ gray: { 50: '#fafafa', 100: '#f0f0f0' } }` and consumer calls `.addColors({ gray: { 50: '#ffffff' } })`
+- **THEN** the result SHALL be `{ gray: { 50: '#ffffff', 100: '#f0f0f0' } }` — consumer wins on conflict, library preserved on non-conflict
+
+#### Scenario: addScale replaces by name
+
+- **WHEN** library has scale `space` and consumer adds scale `space` with different values
+- **THEN** the consumer's scale SHALL replace the library's (scale-level replacement, not deep merge of values)
+
+#### Scenario: addColorModes merges modes
+
+- **WHEN** library has modes `dark` and `light` and consumer adds mode `custom`
+- **THEN** the result SHALL have all three modes
+
+### Requirement: Round-trip fidelity
+
+A theme built from `.from(libTokens)` with no augmentation SHALL produce identical serialization output.
+
+#### Scenario: Full round-trip
+
+- **WHEN** consumer builds `createTheme().from(libTokens).build()`
+- **THEN** `serialize()` output SHALL match `libTokens.serialize()`
+
+### Requirement: Selective composition via spreading
+
+Consumers MAY also compose by spreading individual properties into builder methods as an alternative to `.from()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Spread colors only
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addColors({ ...libTokens.colors })` without using `.from()`
+- **THEN** the consumer theme SHALL have only the library's colors, no other library config
+
+#### Scenario: Spread breakpoints and augment
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addBreakpoints({ ...libTokens.breakpoints, xl: 1440 })`
+- **THEN** the consumer theme SHALL have all library breakpoints plus `xl`

+## MODIFIED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: CSS variable definition emission
+
+The Vite plugin SHALL emit CSS custom property definitions derived from the theme's manifest. Variable definitions SHALL appear BEFORE the `@layer` declaration. CSS variable names SHALL use dash-join format regardless of internal dot-path storage.
+
+#### Scenario: Root variable definitions from nested colors
+
+- **WHEN** the theme has nested colors `{ gray: { 50: '#fafafa' } }` and manifest contains the flattened CSS
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain `:root { --color-gray-50: #fafafa; }`
+
+#### Scenario: Mode variable definitions
+
+- **WHEN** the theme has color modes with dot-path aliases
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain mode blocks with dash-join variable names: `[data-color-mode="dark"] { --color-primary: ...; }`
+
+#### Scenario: All modes get explicit selectors
+
+- **WHEN** the theme has color modes defined via `addColorModes`
+- **THEN** the extracted CSS SHALL contain a `[data-color-mode="X"]` block for EVERY mode
+
+#### Scenario: Variables before @layer
+
+- **WHEN** the extracted CSS includes both variable definitions and component CSS
+- **THEN** the variable definitions SHALL appear BEFORE the `@layer` declaration
+
+### Requirement: Theme evaluator extracts variables
+
+The `evaluateTheme` function SHALL return flattened scale JSON and CSS variable strings. The flat data SHALL be produced from `serialize()`, which flattens nested theme data at the serialization boundary.
+
+#### Scenario: evaluateTheme return shape
+
+- **WHEN** `evaluateTheme(ssrLoadModule, themePath)` is called
+- **THEN** it SHALL return `{ scalesJson, variableMapJson, variableCss, contextualVarsJson }`
+
+#### Scenario: Nested theme produces correct variable CSS
+
+- **WHEN** a theme stores colors nested as `{ gray: { 50: '#fafafa' } }`
+- **THEN** `variableCss` SHALL produce `--color-gray-50: #fafafa` — dot-path internally, dash-join in CSS output

+### Requirement: System package owns ThemeBuilder and token utilities
+
+The system package SHALL contain internal implementations of `ThemeBuilder`, `createTheme`, `serializeTokens`, and `flattenScale` in `system/src/theme/`. These modules SHALL have zero imports from `@animus-ui/core` or `@animus-ui/theming`.
+
+#### Scenario: No external theming dependency

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Token alias syntax in string style values
+
+The extraction pipeline SHALL recognize `{scale.path}` patterns inside string literal style values and resolve them at compile time against the theme. A string containing one or more `{...}` patterns SHALL be classified as static (not skipped or bailed) by the style evaluator, and each alias SHALL be resolved to either a CSS variable reference or a literal value during theme resolution.
+
+#### Scenario: Single token alias in a string
+
+- **WHEN** a style value is `'1px solid {colors.primary}'` and theme has variable `--colors-primary` for token `colors.primary`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS value SHALL be `1px solid var(--colors-primary)`
+
+#### Scenario: Token alias as entire value
+
+- **WHEN** a style value is `'{colors.primary}'`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS value SHALL be `var(--colors-primary)` — alias works as standalone value, not only embedded in compounds
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple aliases in one value
+
+- **WHEN** a style value is `'{space.4} {space.8}'` and theme has literal values `space.4 → "0.25rem"`, `space.8 → "0.5rem"`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS value SHALL be `0.25rem 0.5rem`
+
+#### Scenario: Alias in box-shadow compound
+
+- **WHEN** a style value is `'0 4px 12px {colors.primary/20}'`
+- **THEN** the resolved CSS value SHALL resolve the alias (with alpha) and produce the compound value with the resolved token embedded
+
+#### Scenario: No aliases in plain string
+
+- **WHEN** a style value is `'1px solid red'` (no `{...}` pattern)
+- **THEN** the value SHALL pass through unchanged — no scanning overhead for strings without braces
+
+#### Scenario: String with alias is still classified as static
+
+- **WHEN** the style evaluator encounters `border: '1px solid {colors.primary}'`
+- **THEN** it SHALL classify the value as a static string literal — the `{` is a character in the string, not a JS expression delimiter
+
+### Requirement: Dot-path resolution with hyphen conversion
+
+Token alias paths SHALL use dot notation matching the lodash `_.get()` convention used at runtime. The resolver SHALL convert dot paths to flat theme keys by treating the first segment as the scale name and joining remaining segments with hyphens.
+
+#### Scenario: Simple one-level path
+
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.primary}`
+- **THEN** the flat key lookup SHALL be `"colors.primary"`
+
+#### Scenario: Nested path with dot-to-hyphen conversion
+
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.pink.600}`
+- **THEN** the flat key lookup SHALL be `"colors.pink-600"` — `pink` and `600` joined with hyphen
+
+#### Scenario: Deeply nested path
+
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.gradient.pink.soft}`
+- **THEN** the flat key lookup SHALL be `"colors.gradient-pink-soft"`
+
+#### Scenario: Default value (elided underscore)
+
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.text}` and the theme has semantic token `text: { _: 'navy-700', shadow: 'navy-900' }`
+- **THEN** the flat key lookup SHALL be `"colors.text"` — the `_` default is already elided in the flat key
+
+#### Scenario: Non-color scale
+
+- **WHEN** alias is `{space.8}`
+- **THEN** the flat key lookup SHALL be `"space.8"` — single-level paths have no hyphen conversion
+
+### Requirement: Alpha modifier on token aliases
+
+Token aliases SHALL support an optional `/N` suffix where N is an integer 0-100 representing an opacity percentage. The resolver SHALL produce a CSS `color-mix()` expression wrapping the resolved token.
+
+#### Scenario: 50% opacity on variable-backed token
+
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.primary/50}` and token `colors.primary` has variable `--colors-primary`
+- **THEN** the resolved value SHALL be `color-mix(in srgb, var(--colors-primary) 50%, transparent)`
+
+#### Scenario: Full opacity (100)
+
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.primary/100}`
+- **THEN** the resolved value SHALL be `var(--colors-primary)` — 100% opacity is identity, no color-mix wrapper needed
+
+#### Scenario: Zero opacity
+
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.primary/0}`
+- **THEN** the resolved value SHALL be `transparent` — 0% of any color is transparent
+
+#### Scenario: Alpha on non-variable token
+
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.pink.500/30}` and `colors.pink-500` resolves to literal `"#ff80bf"` (no CSS variable)
+- **THEN** the resolved value SHALL be `color-mix(in srgb, #ff80bf 30%, transparent)` — color-mix works with literals too
+
+#### Scenario: Alpha in compound value
+
+- **WHEN** a style value is `'0 4px 12px {colors.primary/20}'`
+- **THEN** the `{colors.primary/20}` portion SHALL be replaced with the color-mix expression, embedded in the compound value
+
+### Requirement: Variable-aware theme resolution
+
+The Rust extraction pipeline SHALL accept a variable-name map alongside the existing flat value map. For each token alias, the resolver SHALL check the variable map first: if present, resolve to `var(--name)`; if absent, resolve to the literal value from the flat map.
+
+#### Scenario: Token with CSS variable
+
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.primary}` and variable map has `"colors.primary" → "--colors-primary"`
+- **THEN** the resolved value SHALL be `var(--colors-primary)`
+
+#### Scenario: Token without CSS variable
+
+- **WHEN** alias is `{space.8}` and variable map has no entry for `"space.8"`, but flat map has `"space.8" → "0.5rem"`
+- **THEN** the resolved value SHALL be `0.5rem`
+
+#### Scenario: Token not found in either map
+
+- **WHEN** alias is `{colors.nonexistent}` and neither map has a matching entry
+- **THEN** the resolver SHALL emit a warning diagnostic (format: `[alias] ComponentName: unresolved token '{colors.nonexistent}'`) and leave the alias text in place as-is
+
+#### Scenario: Variable map passed to Rust
+
+- **WHEN** the Vite plugin serializes the theme at build start
+- **THEN** it SHALL pass a JSON variable-name map `{ "token.path": "--css-var-name" }` to the Rust pipeline alongside the existing flat value map
+
+### Requirement: Token alias diagnostics
+
+Unresolved token aliases SHALL produce warning diagnostics in the extraction output, following the same pattern as per-property skip warnings.
+
+#### Scenario: Unresolved alias warning format
+
+- **WHEN** alias `{colors.typo}` in component `Hero` cannot be resolved
+- **THEN** `ExtractionResult.errors` SHALL contain `"[alias] Hero: unresolved token '{colors.typo}'"`
+
+#### Scenario: Resolved aliases produce no warnings
+
+- **WHEN** all aliases in a component resolve successfully
+- **THEN** no alias-related entries SHALL appear in `ExtractionResult.errors`
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple unresolved aliases produce multiple warnings
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `'1px {borders.typo} {colors.typo}'`
+- **THEN** `ExtractionResult.errors` SHALL contain one warning per unresolved alias
+
+### Requirement: Token alias opacity modifier
+
+The system SHALL resolve `{scale.path/opacity}` syntax to `color-mix(in srgb, {resolved} {opacity}%, transparent)` in all resolution contexts: Rust crate extraction, pipeline `resolveTokenAliases`, AND theme-level `resolveTokenRefs`.
+
+#### Scenario: Opacity modifier in theme scale cross-reference
+
+- **WHEN** a theme scale value contains `{colors.primary/40}` and `colors.primary` resolves to a raw value (non-emitted scale)
+- **THEN** `resolveTokenRefs` SHALL produce `color-mix(in srgb, #6366f1 40%, transparent)` (not the raw color without opacity)
+
+#### Scenario: Opacity modifier with var() reference in theme scale
+
+- **WHEN** a theme scale value contains `{colors.primary/40}` and `colors.primary` resolves to `var(--color-primary)` (emitted scale)
+- **THEN** `resolveTokenRefs` SHALL produce `color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-primary) 40%, transparent)`
+
+#### Scenario: Zero opacity
+
+- **WHEN** a theme scale value contains `{colors.primary/0}`
+- **THEN** `resolveTokenRefs` SHALL produce `transparent`
+
+### Requirement: Theme-level token ref resolution in scale values
+
+Scale values passed to `addScale()` SHALL support `{scale.key}` token ref syntax. The ThemeBuilder SHALL resolve these refs at `build()` time, after all scales have been collected, so declaration order does not affect resolution. Only scales marked `emit: true` may be referenced (enforced at both the type level and at runtime). Self-referential token refs (a scale referencing itself) SHALL produce a runtime warning and leave the ref unresolved.
+
+#### Scenario: Direct token ref in scale value
+
+- **WHEN** consumer calls `.addScale({ name: 'semantic', values: { primary: '{colors.blue-500}' }, emit: true })` and `colors.blue-500` is an emitted token
+- **THEN** `build()` SHALL resolve `{colors.blue-500}` to `var(--colors-blue-500)` in the output scale
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple token refs in one scale value
+
+- **WHEN** a scale value is `'{space.sm} {space.md}'` and both `space.sm` and `space.md` are emitted tokens
+- **THEN** `build()` SHALL replace each ref independently, producing e.g. `var(--space-sm) var(--space-md)`
+
+#### Scenario: Ref to non-emitted scale (type error)
+
+- **WHEN** consumer writes `'{sizes.lg}'` in a scale value and `sizes` was added without `emit: true`
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL produce a type error — only `ScaleTokenRef<EmittedScales>` paths are valid ref targets. At runtime, `build()` SHALL also warn and leave the ref unresolved.
+
+#### Scenario: Forward reference resolved correctly
+
+- **WHEN** scale A references `{scaleB.key}` and scale B is declared after scale A in the builder chain
+- **THEN** `build()` SHALL still resolve the ref correctly — resolution happens after all scales are collected, not at declaration time
+
+#### Scenario: Self-referential token ref produces warning
+
+- **WHEN** scale `space` contains a value `'{space.sm}'` (referencing its own scale)
+- **THEN** `build()` SHALL emit a console warning (format: `[theme] self-referential token ref '{space.sm}' in scale 'space'`) and leave the ref unresolved rather than recursing infinitely

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Configurable breakpoints negative type assertions
+
+The type test suite SHALL include negative assertions verifying that invalid breakpoint keys in responsive prop objects produce type errors.
+
+#### Scenario: Invalid breakpoint key rejected in responsive object
+
+- **WHEN** a component with system props is given a responsive object with a key not in the augmented Theme's breakpoints
+- **THEN** TypeScript SHALL produce a compile error
+- **AND** a `@ts-expect-error` annotation SHALL guard this negative case
+
+#### Scenario: Valid breakpoint keys accepted in responsive object
+
+- **WHEN** a component with system props is given a responsive object with keys matching the augmented Theme's breakpoints (e.g., `xs`, `sm`, `md`, `lg`, `xl`) plus `_` for base
+- **THEN** the expression SHALL compile without error
+
+### Requirement: Type test coverage audit verified
+
+All other recent features (compound variants, contextual vars, compose(), .system() mixed namespace, disjoint namespace constraint) SHALL have existing type assertions verified as comprehensive. No redundant assertions SHALL be added for features already covered in `types.test-d.tsx` sections §7, §7b, §10a-10f, §12, §13, §13b-§13e.
+
+#### Scenario: Existing coverage preserved
+
+- **WHEN** running `bun run test:types` after all changes
+- **THEN** all existing type assertions in sections §7 through §13e SHALL continue to pass
+- **AND** no existing `@ts-expect-error` annotations SHALL become unused (TS2578)

+# typescript-toolchain Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+TBD - created by archiving change adopt-typescript-7-tsgo. Update Purpose after archive.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Type-Check Implementation Selection
+
+The repository SHALL designate a single canonical TypeScript implementation for type-check workloads — the workloads invoked by `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, and any future tier whose primary work is `--noEmit` type checking. The chosen implementation MUST honor the standard TypeScript CLI surface: `<binary> --noEmit` and `<binary> -p <tsconfig.json>` invocation forms.
+
+The canonical type-check implementation MAY differ from the canonical declaration-emit implementation. The two MAY be sourced from different npm packages.
+
+#### Scenario: Type-check tier invokes the canonical type-check binary
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify:compile`
+- **THEN** each per-package `compile` script invokes the canonical type-check binary with `--noEmit`
+- **AND** no other TypeScript implementation is invoked for type checking by the tier
+
+#### Scenario: Type-check binary supports tsconfig path projection
+
+- **WHEN** `scripts/verify/types.sh` runs
+- **THEN** it invokes the canonical type-check binary with `-p packages/system/__tests__/tsconfig.test-d.json --noEmit`
+- **AND** type-contract assertions execute against that tsconfig
+
+#### Scenario: Single canonical implementation per tier
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads the per-package `compile` script and `scripts/verify/types.sh`
+- **THEN** both invoke the same type-check binary
+- **AND** no fallback or implementation-switching logic is present in the canonical scripts (fallbacks live in named alternate scripts, not the canonical path)
+
+### Requirement: Declaration Emit Implementation Selection
+
+The repository SHALL designate a single canonical TypeScript implementation for declaration emit workloads — the workloads invoked by each active TS package's `build:ts` script via `<binary> -p tsconfig.build.json`. The chosen implementation MUST honor the standard TypeScript CLI surface, including `--outDir` override and `tsconfig.json` projection. The canonical declaration-emit implementation MUST emit `.d.ts` artifacts that are stable across re-builds. Emit divergence between this implementation and any prior canonical that breaks consumer type-check or alters published type SHAPES SHALL be treated as a release-blocking regression. Stylistic divergences (quote style, object-property ordering, generic alpha-renaming, type-alias eager expansion) that produce semantically identical types are NOT release-blocking.
+
+The canonical declaration-emit implementation MAY differ from the canonical type-check implementation. The two MAY be sourced from different npm packages.
+
+#### Scenario: Declaration emit invokes the canonical declaration-emit binary
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/<pkg>' build:ts`
+- **THEN** `tsdown` produces `.js`/`.mjs` artifacts first
+- **AND** the canonical declaration-emit binary runs against `tsconfig.build.json` with `emitDeclarationOnly: true` to emit `.d.ts`
+- **AND** the binary used resolves to the version pinned by the corresponding root `devDependency`
+
+#### Scenario: Alternate emit implementation requires parity gate via dts-parity.sh
+
+- **WHEN** a future change proposes swapping the canonical declaration-emit implementation
+- **THEN** the change MUST run `bash scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh` and document the verdict in the change's design notes
+- **AND** strict byte-equal parity OR a categorized allowlist of semantically-equivalent stylistic divergences (each justified) is required
+- **AND** the change MUST update root `CLAUDE.md` Monorepo Build System TypeScript Implementations table to name the new canonical implementation
+
+#### Scenario: dts-parity.sh is reusable
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer wants to verify declaration-emit equivalence between two installed TypeScript-CLI-compatible binaries
+- **THEN** running `bash scripts/verify/dts-parity.sh` (with both binaries present at `node_modules/.bin/tsc` and `node_modules/.bin/tsgo`) emits to a scratch directory
+- **AND** prints per-file divergences inline
+- **AND** exits 0 on byte-equal parity, 1 on divergence, 2 on precondition failure
+- **AND** is side-effect-free against the source `dist/` directories
+
+### Requirement: Version Pinning Policy
+
+The canonical TypeScript implementations — both type-check and declaration-emit — SHALL be pinned to exact versions at the root `package.json` `devDependencies`. Range specifiers (`^`, `~`, etc.) are NOT permitted for these dependencies. Floating dist-tags (`beta`, `next`, `latest`) are NOT permitted in version strings.
+
+The pin policy applies to:
+
+- `typescript`: the JavaScript reference compiler used for declaration emit.
+- Any alternate type-check implementation package (e.g., `@typescript/native-preview` for `tsgo`) installed at the root.
+
+#### Scenario: TypeScript version is exact-pinned
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads root `package.json`
+- **THEN** `devDependencies.typescript` declares an exact version with no `^` or `~` prefix
+- **AND** an upgrade requires an explicit edit to that exact version string
+
+#### Scenario: Alternate type-check implementation is exact-pinned
+
+- **WHEN** the canonical type-check implementation is sourced from a package other than `typescript` (e.g., `@typescript/native-preview`)
+- **THEN** that package's version in root `devDependencies` is an exact-pinned version string (e.g., `7.0.0-dev.20260421.2`)
+- **AND** no floating dist-tag (`beta`, `next`, etc.) appears in that version string
+
+### Requirement: Workload Split Documentation
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL document the canonical type-check and declaration-emit implementations in a section discoverable by agents (under `## Monorepo Build System` or equivalent). The documentation SHALL state:
+
+- Which TypeScript implementation runs each workload (type-check, declaration emit).
+- The install command for each implementation in `bun add -d <pkg>` form (or equivalent `bun install` invocation).
+- The exact version pin currently in effect for each implementation.
+
+#### Scenario: Agent looks up the canonical implementations
+
+- **WHEN** an agent reads the root `CLAUDE.md` Monorepo Build System section
+- **THEN** the documentation identifies which TypeScript implementation runs `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, and `build:ts`
+- **AND** the install command for each is recorded in `bun` form
+- **AND** the pinned version for each is recorded
+
+#### Scenario: Documentation stays in sync with package.json
+
+- **WHEN** the root `package.json` `devDependencies.typescript` or alternate type-check implementation version changes
+- **THEN** the same change updates the version string recorded in the root `CLAUDE.md` Monorepo Build System section
+- **AND** drift between `package.json` and `CLAUDE.md` is treated as a documentation defect
+
+### Requirement: Soak Path for Type-Check Implementation Swaps
+
+When the canonical type-check implementation is changed (e.g., from `tsc` to `tsgo` or vice versa), the change SHALL provide a parallel "fallback" script set that invokes the prior implementation. The fallback set SHALL exist for at least one inner-loop cycle after the change lands and SHALL be removed in a follow-on commit once the new canonical is verified stable.
+
+The fallback set SHALL consist of:
+
+- A root orchestrator script (e.g., `verify:compile:tsc-fallback`) that fans the fallback invocation across active packages.
+- Per-package scripts (e.g., `compile:tsc-fallback`) that invoke the prior implementation with the same arguments.
+
+The fallback scripts SHALL NOT be invoked by any composite orchestrator (`verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:ci`, `verify:next`, `verify:showcase`). They are ad-hoc parity-check tools.
+
+#### Scenario: Type-check swap ships with a fallback
+
+- **WHEN** a change proposes swapping the canonical type-check implementation
+- **THEN** the same change adds a `verify:<canonical-name>:<prior-name>-fallback` root script (or equivalent)
+- **AND** per-package fallback scripts mirror the prior invocation pattern
+
+#### Scenario: Fallback is excluded from composite orchestrators
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs any composite orchestrator (`verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:ci`, `verify:next`, `verify:showcase`)
+- **THEN** no fallback script is invoked
+- **AND** the canonical implementation runs
+
+#### Scenario: Fallback is removed after soak
+
+- **WHEN** the new canonical implementation has been stable for at least one inner-loop cycle (one calendar week minimum)
+- **THEN** a follow-on commit removes the fallback root script AND the per-package fallback scripts
+- **AND** the rollback strategy documented in this requirement is no longer available

+# unit-fallback Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+TBD - created by archiving change scale-miss-fallback. Update Purpose after archive.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Bare numeric values receive px on length properties
+
+When the CSS post-processing step encounters a bare numeric value (no unit suffix) in a CSS declaration for a property that expects length units, it SHALL append `px` to the value.
+
+#### Scenario: Padding with bare number
+
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `padding:8;`
+- **THEN** post-processing SHALL produce `padding:8px;`
+
+#### Scenario: Margin with bare negative number
+
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `margin-top:-16;`
+- **THEN** post-processing SHALL produce `margin-top:-16px;`
+
+#### Scenario: Font size with bare decimal
+
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `font-size:1.5;`
+- **THEN** post-processing SHALL produce `font-size:1.5px;`
+
+#### Scenario: Value already has units
+
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `padding:0.5rem;`
+- **THEN** post-processing SHALL NOT modify the value
+
+### Requirement: Unitless properties are preserved
+
+Properties in the unitless set SHALL NOT receive `px` suffix. The unitless set SHALL be imported from `@animus-ui/properties` — both the build-time pipeline (`applyUnitFallback`) and the runtime dynamic path (`resolveClasses`) SHALL reference the same `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES` export. No inline definitions.
+
+#### Scenario: Line height preserved
+
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `line-height:1.5;`
+- **THEN** post-processing SHALL NOT modify the value (line-height accepts unitless numbers)
+
+#### Scenario: Opacity preserved
+
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `opacity:0.5;`
+- **THEN** post-processing SHALL NOT modify the value
+
+#### Scenario: Font weight preserved
+
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `font-weight:700;`
+- **THEN** post-processing SHALL NOT modify the value
+
+#### Scenario: Z-index preserved
+
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `z-index:10;`
+- **THEN** post-processing SHALL NOT modify the value
+
+#### Scenario: Flex preserved
+
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `flex:1;`
+- **THEN** post-processing SHALL NOT modify the value
+
+#### Scenario: Single source of truth
+
+- **WHEN** both `extract/pipeline/unit-fallback.ts` and `system/src/runtime/resolveClasses.ts` need the unitless property set
+- **THEN** both SHALL import `UNITLESS_PROPERTIES` from `@animus-ui/properties` — no inline Set definitions
+
+### Requirement: Shorthand values handled per-number
+
+When a CSS declaration contains multiple bare numeric values (shorthand properties), each numeric value SHALL be independently checked and receive `px` if the property is not unitless.
+
+#### Scenario: Margin shorthand
+
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `margin:8 16;`
+- **THEN** post-processing SHALL produce `margin:8px 16px;`

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Variant usage tracking
+
+The usage ledger SHALL track which variant option values are used for each component at JSX callsites across all analyzed files. For each component binding, the ledger records a map of variant prop name to the set of option values observed.
+
+#### Scenario: Explicit variant value
+
+- **WHEN** a callsite has `<Button variant="stroke" />`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL record that component `Button`'s variant prop `variant` has value `"stroke"` used
+
+#### Scenario: Multiple variant values across callsites
+
+- **WHEN** callsites have `<Button variant="stroke" />` and `<Button variant="fill" />`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL record both `"stroke"` and `"fill"` as used for `Button.variant`
+
+#### Scenario: Default variant implicit activation
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `defaultVariant: "fill"` and a callsite renders `<Button />` without a `variant` prop
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL record `"fill"` as used (the default is implicitly activated)
+
+#### Scenario: Default NOT activated when all callsites specify explicit values
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `defaultVariant: "fill"` and EVERY callsite specifies an explicit variant value (e.g., all use `variant="stroke"`)
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL NOT record `"fill"` as used — no callsite triggers the default
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic variant value transacts all options
+
+- **WHEN** a callsite has `<Button variant={someVariable} />`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL record ALL variant options for `Button.variant` as used — the dynamic value could be any option at runtime
+
+### Requirement: State usage tracking
+
+The usage ledger SHALL track which state props are activated for each component at JSX callsites.
+
+#### Scenario: Static state activation
+
+- **WHEN** a callsite has `<Layout sidebar />`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL record state `"sidebar"` as used for component `Layout`
+
+#### Scenario: Dynamic state activation
+
+- **WHEN** a callsite has `<Layout loading={isLoading} />`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL record state `"loading"` as used — the dynamic boolean could be true at runtime
+
+#### Scenario: State never activated
+
+- **WHEN** no callsite across any file passes the `loading` prop to `Layout`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL NOT contain `"loading"` for `Layout`
+
+### Requirement: Component render tracking
+
+The usage ledger SHALL track whether each component is rendered at any JSX callsite. A component is considered rendered if its binding name appears as a JSX element tag.
+
+#### Scenario: Component rendered
+
+- **WHEN** any callsite has `<GridBox>...</GridBox>` or `<GridBox />`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL record `GridBox` as rendered
+
+#### Scenario: Component never rendered
+
+- **WHEN** no file in the project contains a `<GridBox>` or `<GridBox />` element
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL NOT contain `GridBox` in the rendered set
+
+#### Scenario: Component imported but only extended
+
+- **WHEN** `Anchor` is imported in a file but only used as `Anchor.extend()` — never rendered as `<Anchor>`
+- **THEN** the ledger SHALL NOT record `Anchor` as rendered via JSX — but Anchor's CSS is still kept because it is a parent in the provenance graph
+
+### Requirement: Variants without defaultVariant excluded from tracking
+
+Variant props that have NO `defaultVariant` defined SHALL be excluded from the `ComponentUsageConfig` and SHALL NOT be tracked by the scanner. The reconciler SHALL receive no usage data for those variant props and SHALL fall back to conservative behavior: all options are kept. This prevents implicit callsite usage (no prop passed) from incorrectly eliminating all options when there is no default to resolve to.
+
+#### Scenario: Variant without default keeps all options
+
+- **WHEN** a component has `variant({ variants: { ui: {...}, text: {...} } })` with NO `defaultVariant` and some callsites render the component without a variant prop
+- **THEN** the reconciler SHALL keep ALL variant options (`ui` and `text`) because the variant prop is not tracked
+
+### Requirement: Conservative fallback when no usage data
+
+When a component IS in `rendered_components` but the ledger contains NO entries in `variant_usage` or `state_usage` for that component, the reconciler SHALL keep ALL variant options and ALL states for that component. No elimination occurs without positive evidence of what IS used.
+
+#### Scenario: Rendered component with no variant/state usage data
+
+- **WHEN** a component `Box` is rendered at callsites but no variant or state props are passed
+- **THEN** the reconciler SHALL keep all of Box's variants and states intact

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Utility class generation
+
+For each unique (prop, value) pair collected by the JSX scanner, the utility CSS generator SHALL produce a single CSS class rule containing the resolved CSS declarations. Resolution SHALL use the same theme scale lookup and transform pipeline as base style extraction.
+
+#### Scenario: Simple numeric value with scale
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `p` with value `8`, config has `{ property: "padding", scale: "space" }`, theme has `{ "space.8": "0.5rem" }`
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL produce a class rule containing `padding: 0.5rem;`
+
+#### Scenario: String value with scale
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `color` with value `"primary"`, config has `{ property: "color", scale: "colors" }`, theme has `{ "colors.primary": "var(--colors-primary)" }`
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL produce a class rule containing `color: var(--colors-primary);`
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-property prop
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `px` with value `16`, config has `{ property: "padding", properties: ["paddingLeft", "paddingRight"], scale: "space" }`, theme has `{ "space.16": "1rem" }`
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL produce a class rule containing `padding-left: 1rem; padding-right: 1rem;`
+
+#### Scenario: Value with transform
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `width` with value `1`, config has `{ property: "width", transform: "size" }`
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL apply the size transform producing a class rule containing `width: 100%;`
+
+#### Scenario: Value with no scale match (passthrough)
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `display` with value `"flex"`, config has `{ property: "display" }` (no scale)
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL produce a class rule containing `display: flex;`
+
+### Requirement: Responsive utility classes
+
+For responsive values (objects with breakpoint keys), the generator SHALL produce a single class containing the base declaration and `@media` queries for each breakpoint.
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive with default and one breakpoint
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `mt` with value `{ _: 8, sm: 16 }`, config has `{ property: "marginTop", scale: "space" }`, theme has `{ "space.8": "0.5rem", "space.16": "1rem" }`, breakpoints has `{ sm: 768 }`
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL produce a class rule containing `margin-top: 0.5rem;` and within `@media (min-width: 768px) { margin-top: 1rem; }`
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive without \_ key
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `position` with value `{ sm: "static" }`, breakpoints has `{ sm: 768 }`
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL produce a class rule containing ONLY `@media (min-width: 768px) { position: static; }` — no base declaration
+
+#### Scenario: Responsive with multiple breakpoints
+
+- **WHEN** prop is `fontSize` with value `{ _: 16, xs: 18, md: 22 }`, config has `{ property: "fontSize", scale: "fontSizes" }`, theme has `{ "fontSizes.16": "1rem", "fontSizes.18": "1.125rem", "fontSizes.22": "1.375rem" }`, breakpoints has `{ xs: 480, md: 1024 }`
+- **THEN** the generator SHALL produce `font-size: 1rem;` at base, and two @media blocks at 480px and 1024px with their respective values
+
+### Requirement: Utility class naming
+
+Utility class names SHALL follow the pattern `animus-u-{hash}` where `hash` is an 8-character content hash of the canonical CSS output (after resolution and transform). Two values that resolve to identical CSS SHALL produce the same class name.
+
+#### Scenario: Same resolved value from different inputs
+
+- **WHEN** prop `p` with value `8` resolves to `padding: 0.5rem` AND prop `p` with string value `"0.5rem"` also resolves to `padding: 0.5rem`
+- **THEN** both SHALL produce the same class name
+
+#### Scenario: Stable across builds
+
+- **WHEN** the same (prop, value) pair is extracted in two separate builds
+- **THEN** the class name SHALL be identical
+
+#### Scenario: Different values produce different names
+
+- **WHEN** prop `p` with value `8` and prop `p` with value `16` are both extracted
+- **THEN** they SHALL produce different class names
+
+### Requirement: @layer system placement
+
+All utility class rules SHALL be emitted within `@layer system { }`. This ensures utility classes take precedence over base, variant, and state styles per the CSS cascade layer specification.
+
+#### Scenario: Layer ordering
+
+- **WHEN** a component has base styles in `@layer base` and system prop utilities in `@layer system`
+- **THEN** the system prop utilities SHALL override the base styles when both target the same CSS property, regardless of specificity or source order outside the layers
+
+#### Scenario: Utility and variant on same property
+
+- **WHEN** a component has variant style `color: red` in `@layer variants` and system prop `color="primary"` producing a utility in `@layer system`
+- **THEN** the utility SHALL win — `@layer system` has higher precedence than `@layer variants`
+
+### Requirement: Custom prop (.props()) utility generation
+
+Custom props defined via `.props()` SHALL have their CSS rules emitted in `@layer custom`. The CSS generation function for custom props (`generate_custom_prop_css`) SHALL accept an optional `slot_entries` parameter for dynamic custom prop variable slot classes. When slot entries are provided, they SHALL be interleaved with static custom prop utility classes in a single sorted `@layer custom {}` block using the same cascade ordering as `@layer system`.
+
+Custom props MAY have inline scales (object or array in the `.props()` config), theme scale references (string), or no scale. Scale resolution follows the same rules as system props. Numeric values in inline scales SHALL have unit fallback applied at build time (e.g., `64` → `"64px"` for `font-size`), using the same unitless property set as the runtime.
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with inline scale
+
+- **WHEN** a custom prop defines `scale: { xs: '10rem', sm: '15rem' }` and JSX uses `size="sm"`
+- **THEN** a utility class is generated with the resolved scale value `15rem`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with inline numeric scale
+
+- **WHEN** a custom prop defines `scale: { md: 64 }` targeting `font-size`
+- **THEN** the scale value is stored as `"64px"` (unit fallback applied at build time)
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop layer precedence
+
+- **WHEN** a custom prop and a system prop both target the same CSS property
+- **THEN** `@layer custom` rules take precedence over `@layer system` rules
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop with dynamic slot entry
+
+- **WHEN** a custom prop has detected dynamic usage and slot entries are provided
+- **THEN** the slot classes appear in `@layer custom` interleaved with static custom utility classes, sorted by CSS property cascade key then breakpoint order
+
+### Requirement: Variable slot CSS generation
+
+Variable slot classes SHALL use a per-breakpoint class pattern. Each dynamic prop produces a base slot class plus one slot class per breakpoint. The runtime applies only the classes for breakpoints the user actually provides.
+
+Base slot class — no `@media` wrapper, simple `var()` reference:
+
+- Single-property: `.animus-dyn-p { padding: var(--animus-p); }`
+- Multi-property: `.animus-dyn-px { padding-left: var(--animus-px); padding-right: var(--animus-px); }`
+- Custom prop (component-scoped): `.animus-dyn-{hash}-size { flex-basis: var(--animus-size); }`
+
+Per-breakpoint slot classes — each wrapped in its own `@media`, targeting its own CSS variable:
+
+```css
+@media (min-width: 480px) {
+  .animus-dyn-p-xs {
+    padding: var(--animus-p-xs);
+  }
+}
+@media (min-width: 768px) {
+  .animus-dyn-p-sm {
+    padding: var(--animus-p-sm);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+No nested `var()` fallback chains. Each breakpoint class directly references its own variable. Unset breakpoints never conflict because their class is not applied to the element.
+
+#### Scenario: System prop variable slot in @layer system
+
+- **WHEN** a system prop has dynamic usage detected
+- **THEN** a base slot class and per-breakpoint slot classes appear in `@layer system`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop variable slot in @layer custom
+
+- **WHEN** a custom prop has dynamic usage detected
+- **THEN** a base slot class and per-breakpoint slot classes appear in `@layer custom` with component-scoped class names (e.g., `animus-dyn-{hash}-{prop}`, `animus-dyn-{hash}-{prop}-sm`)
+
+#### Scenario: No variable slot for static-only props
+
+- **WHEN** a prop (system or custom) has only static usage detected (no dynamic)
+- **THEN** no variable slot class is generated for that prop
+
+#### Scenario: Runtime applies only used breakpoint classes
+
+- **WHEN** a component receives `p={{ _: 8, md: 16 }}` dynamically
+- **THEN** the runtime applies `.animus-dyn-p` (base) and `.animus-dyn-p-md` only — not xs, sm, lg, or xl classes
+
+#### Scenario: Unset breakpoint does not conflict
+
+- **WHEN** a component receives `p={{ _: 8, md: 16 }}` and the viewport is >1440px
+- **THEN** the md value (16) is used because no xl class overrides it — the xl slot class is not on the element
+
+### Requirement: Single sorted emission stream
+
+Within each `@layer` block (`system` or `custom`), all rules — static utility classes AND variable slot classes — SHALL be emitted in a single sorted stream. Sorting uses: CSS property cascade key (primary), CSS property name (secondary), breakpoint pixel value (tertiary, 0 for base/static), class name (quaternary tiebreaker).
+
+The breakpoint sort ensures per-bp slot classes appear in mobile-first order (smallest viewport first) within the same CSS property group.
+
+#### Scenario: System layer single stream
+
+- **WHEN** system props have both static utility classes and dynamic variable slot classes
+- **THEN** they are interleaved in one `@layer system {}` block sorted by cascade key then breakpoint order
+
+#### Scenario: Custom layer single stream
+
+- **WHEN** custom props have both static utility classes and dynamic variable slot classes
+- **THEN** they are interleaved in one `@layer custom {}` block sorted by cascade key then breakpoint order
+
+#### Scenario: Per-bp classes sorted by pixel value
+
+- **WHEN** slot classes exist for breakpoints xs(480), sm(768), md(1024), lg(1200), xl(1440)
+- **THEN** they appear in source order: base, xs, sm, md, lg, xl
+
+#### Scenario: Deterministic output
+
+- **WHEN** the same project is analyzed twice with identical inputs
+- **THEN** both `@layer system` and `@layer custom` CSS outputs are byte-identical
+
+### Requirement: CSS property cascade ordering
+
+Within each `@layer` block, CSS rules SHALL be sorted so that shorthand properties appear before longhand properties. This prevents shorthands from resetting longhands set by earlier rules.
+
+The ordering mirrors `packages/core/src/properties/orderPropNames.ts`. Known shorthands (`border`, `margin`, `padding`, `flex`, `background`, `overflow`, `border-radius`, `grid`, `outline`, `transition`, `animation`, `gap`, `inset`, `place-items`, `place-content`, `place-self`) receive cascade key 0. All other properties receive cascade key 1.
+
+This ordering applies to BOTH `@layer system` and `@layer custom`.
+
+#### Scenario: Shorthand before longhand in @layer system
+
+- **WHEN** `@layer system` contains both `border` and `border-bottom-color` rules
+- **THEN** `border` rules appear before `border-bottom-color` rules in source order
+
+#### Scenario: Shorthand before longhand in @layer custom
+
+- **WHEN** `@layer custom` contains both `margin` (from a multi-property custom prop) and `margin-left` rules
+- **THEN** `margin` rules appear before `margin-left` rules in source order
+
+#### Scenario: Mixed static and dynamic with cascade ordering
+
+- **WHEN** `@layer custom` has a static shorthand utility class and a dynamic longhand slot class
+- **THEN** the shorthand static class appears before the longhand dynamic slot class

+# v1-faq-document Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+Provide a single FAQ document that positions the Animus project, explains its mental model, addresses common misconceptions with verifiable evidence, catalogs features and limitations honestly, and guides adoption -- all without duplicating the RFC.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: FAQ document structure
+
+The FAQ document SHALL be a single Markdown file at `docs/v1-faq.md` containing exactly these sections in order: What Is This, How It Works, Common Misconceptions, Feature Matrix, Known Limitations, Adoption, Proof Points.
+
+#### Scenario: File exists at expected path
+
+- **WHEN** a reviewer or agent explores the repository
+- **THEN** `docs/v1-faq.md` SHALL exist and be readable
+
+#### Scenario: All required sections present
+
+- **WHEN** the FAQ document is opened
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain H2 headers for each of the 7 required sections
+
+### Requirement: Positioning section brevity
+
+The "What Is This" section SHALL be no more than 3 sentences. It positions the project without pitching it.
+
+#### Scenario: Positioning is concise
+
+- **WHEN** a reader encounters the "What Is This" section
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain at most 3 sentences describing what Animus is, what it produces, and what it requires
+
+### Requirement: Mental model section
+
+The "How It Works" section SHALL provide a 5-bullet mental model covering: builder chain → static extraction → cascade layers → zero-runtime output → graceful degradation.
+
+#### Scenario: Mental model covers pipeline
+
+- **WHEN** a reader encounters "How It Works"
+- **THEN** it SHALL explain the path from builder definition to CSS output in 5 bullets without referencing implementation files
+
+### Requirement: Common misconceptions with verification
+
+Each entry in the "Common Misconceptions" section SHALL follow the Claim → Truth → Verify triple structure. Every Verify step SHALL reference a stable identifier (function name, export name, or grep pattern) -- never a line number.
+
+#### Scenario: Token ref opacity misconception
+
+- **WHEN** a reviewer looks for how `{colors.x/40}` opacity syntax works
+- **THEN** the FAQ SHALL state that token ref opacity is resolved by the Rust extraction crate, NOT by `createTheme.ts`, and provide a verification path to the Rust function
+
+#### Scenario: includes() misconception
+
+- **WHEN** a reviewer encounters `.includes()` on SystemBuilder and notes it is a runtime no-op
+- **THEN** the FAQ SHALL explain that `includes()` is a by-design AST marker consumed by `extractSystemFilePackages()` for package discovery, and provide verification
+
+#### Scenario: Module augmentation misconception
+
+- **WHEN** a reviewer flags `declare module '@animus-ui/system'` as unusual
+- **THEN** the FAQ SHALL note this is the industry-standard pattern (Emotion, styled-components) for TypeScript theme type augmentation
+
+#### Scenario: Zero-runtime misconception
+
+- **WHEN** a reviewer claims "zero runtime" is misleading
+- **THEN** the FAQ SHALL define zero-runtime as "no style computation at render time" and state the runtime size (pure string lookup, no hooks, no browser APIs), with verification path
+
+#### Scenario: Prop groups misconception
+
+- **WHEN** a reviewer assumes prop groups (space, color, typography) are framework-provided defaults
+- **THEN** the FAQ SHALL state that all prop groups are 100% user-defined via `.addGroup()` and that the showcase's groups are that application's design choices, not the framework's opinions
+
+### Requirement: Feature matrix format
+
+The "Feature Matrix" section SHALL present features as a table with columns: Feature, Supported (Yes/No), How (brief mechanism).
+
+#### Scenario: Feature matrix covers core capabilities
+
+- **WHEN** the feature matrix is consulted
+- **THEN** it SHALL include entries for at minimum: CSS variables, color modes, responsive props, token references, opacity modifiers, custom transforms, cascade layers, global styles, multi-slot composition, framework-agnostic output, Vite support, Next.js support, CSS variable prefixing, incremental HMR
+
+#### Scenario: Feature matrix entries are verifiable
+
+- **WHEN** a feature is listed as "Yes"
+- **THEN** the "How" column SHALL name the mechanism (builder method, pipeline step, or plugin feature) that provides it
+
+### Requirement: Known limitations with status
+
+Each entry in "Known Limitations" SHALL include a status tag: `planned`, `designing`, `not-planned`, or `known-constraint`.
+
+#### Scenario: Limitations are honest
+
+- **WHEN** a reviewer checks known limitations
+- **THEN** the section SHALL include at minimum: single CSS file (no route splitting), static-only extraction values, compose() requires 'use client' in App Router, no Webpack standalone plugin
+
+#### Scenario: Status tags are accurate
+
+- **WHEN** a limitation is tagged as `planned`
+- **THEN** there SHALL exist a corresponding openspec proposal or active change for that feature
+
+### Requirement: Adoption section
+
+The "Adoption" section SHALL cover plugin setup (both Vite and Next.js), the module augmentation pattern, and the answer to "how do I use this" (add plugin, import virtual stylesheet, define components).
+
+#### Scenario: Setup is concrete
+
+- **WHEN** a prospective adopter reads the adoption section
+- **THEN** it SHALL show the minimum config for both `animusExtract()` (Vite) and `withAnimus()` (Next.js) with the single required option (`system`)
+
+### Requirement: Proof points index
+
+The "Proof Points" section SHALL provide a consolidated index of all verification paths used throughout the document, grouped by package.
+
+#### Scenario: All verify steps are indexed
+
+- **WHEN** a Claim → Truth → Verify triple appears in the misconceptions section
+- **THEN** its Verify path SHALL also appear in the Proof Points index
+
+### Requirement: No RFC duplication
+
+The FAQ SHALL NOT restate content from RFC.md. Where deeper explanation is needed, it SHALL reference the RFC by section (e.g., "See RFC.md $7").
+
+#### Scenario: RFC reference instead of duplication
+
+- **WHEN** an FAQ entry touches on extraction pipeline details, builder chain mechanics, or runtime audit
+- **THEN** it SHALL link to the relevant RFC section rather than restating the content

+## ADDED Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Sublayer declaration within variants layer
+
+When compose families exist in the project, the CSS generator SHALL emit `@layer standalone, composed;` as the first content inside `@layer variants { }`, establishing sublayer ordering.
+
+#### Scenario: Sublayer declaration emitted
+
+- **WHEN** the project contains at least one compose family
+- **THEN** the `@layer variants` block SHALL begin with `@layer standalone, composed;` before any rule blocks
+
+#### Scenario: No sublayers without compose
+
+- **WHEN** the project contains no compose families
+- **THEN** the `@layer variants` block SHALL contain variant rules directly (no sublayer declarations or wrappers)
+
+### Requirement: Sublayer declaration within compounds layer
+
+When compose families exist in the project and compound variants reference shared props, the CSS generator SHALL emit `@layer standalone, composed;` inside `@layer compounds { }`.
+
+#### Scenario: Compounds sublayer declaration emitted
+
+- **WHEN** the project contains compose families AND at least one compound condition references a shared variant prop
+- **THEN** the `@layer compounds` block SHALL begin with `@layer standalone, composed;` before any rule blocks
+
+#### Scenario: No compounds sublayers without composed compounds
+
+- **WHEN** no compound conditions reference shared variant props (even if compose families exist)
+- **THEN** the `@layer compounds` block SHALL contain compound rules directly (no sublayer declarations)
+
+### Requirement: Standalone variant rules in standalone sublayer
+
+All per-component variant rules (including sidecar default rules) SHALL be emitted inside `@layer standalone { }` when sublayers are provisioned.
+
+#### Scenario: Direct variant rule placement
+
+- **WHEN** sublayers are provisioned and component Child has variant `size` with option `sm`
+- **THEN** the rule `.animus-Child-{hash}--size-sm { ... }` SHALL appear inside `@layer variants { @layer standalone { ... } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Sidecar default rule placement
+
+- **WHEN** sublayers are provisioned and component Child has `defaultVariant: 'sm'` for variant `size`
+- **THEN** the sidecar rule `.animus-Child-{hash}--size-default { ... }` SHALL appear inside `@layer variants { @layer standalone { ... } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Chain definition order preserved
+
+- **WHEN** a component defines `.variant('size', {...}).variant('intent', {...})`
+- **THEN** within `@layer standalone`, all `size` variant rules SHALL appear before all `intent` variant rules
+
+### Requirement: Composed variant rules in composed sublayer
+
+All compose inheritance and override rules SHALL be emitted inside `@layer composed { }` when sublayers are provisioned.
+
+#### Scenario: Inheritance rule placement
+
+- **WHEN** sublayers are provisioned and Root composes Child with shared variant `size`
+- **THEN** the inheritance rule `.animus-Root-{hash}--size-sm .animus-Child-{hash} { ... }` SHALL appear inside `@layer variants { @layer composed { ... } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Override rule placement
+
+- **WHEN** sublayers are provisioned and Root composes Child with shared variant `size`
+- **THEN** the override rule `.animus-Root-{hash} .animus-Child-{hash}.animus-Child-{hash}--size-sm { ... }` SHALL appear inside `@layer variants { @layer composed { ... } }`
+
+### Requirement: Standalone compound rules in standalone sublayer
+
+Compound rules for non-composed usage SHALL be emitted inside `@layer compounds { @layer standalone { } }` when compounds sublayers are provisioned.
+
+#### Scenario: Standalone compound placement
+
+- **WHEN** compounds sublayers are provisioned and Child has compound `{ size: 'sm', intent: 'primary' }`
+- **THEN** the standalone compound rule `.animus-Child-{hash}--size-sm.animus-Child-{hash}--intent-primary { ... }` SHALL appear inside `@layer compounds { @layer standalone { ... } }`
+
+### Requirement: Composed compound rules in composed sublayer
+
+Compound rules where at least one condition references a shared variant prop SHALL emit composed variants inside `@layer compounds { @layer composed { } }`, substituting the parent's inheritance selector for the shared prop dimension.
+
+#### Scenario: Composed compound with one shared prop
+
+- **WHEN** compounds sublayers are provisioned and Child has compound `{ size: 'sm', intent: 'primary' }` where `size` is a shared prop with Root
+- **THEN** the composed compound rule SHALL be `.animus-Root-{hash}--size-sm .animus-Child-{hash}.animus-Child-{hash}--intent-primary { ... }` inside `@layer compounds { @layer composed { ... } }`
+
+#### Scenario: Composed compound with multiple shared props
+
+- **WHEN** Child has compound `{ size: 'sm', density: 'compact' }` where both `size` and `density` are shared with Root
+- **THEN** the composed compound rule SHALL be `.animus-Root-{hash}--size-sm.animus-Root-{hash}--density-compact .animus-Child-{hash} { ... }` inside `@layer compounds { @layer composed { ... } }`
+
+### Requirement: Cascade contract
+
+The sublayer structure SHALL enforce this cascade ordering without relying on specificity arithmetic between categories:
+
+- `variants.standalone` < `variants.composed` (layer ordering)
+- `compounds.standalone` < `compounds.composed` (layer ordering)
+- All `variants.*` < all `compounds.*` (top-level layer ordering, unchanged)
+
+#### Scenario: Composed beats standalone regardless of specificity
+
+- **WHEN** a `variants.standalone` rule has specificity (0,5,0) and a `variants.composed` rule has specificity (0,1,0) and both target the same element and property
+- **THEN** the `variants.composed` rule SHALL win
+
+#### Scenario: Inheritance vs override within composed
+
+- **WHEN** both inheritance (0,2,0) and override (0,3,0) rules match within `variants.composed`
+- **THEN** the override rule SHALL win by specificity (structural invariant of selector shapes)

+# verification-tier-policy Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+TBD - created by archiving change verification-tier-policy. Update Purpose after archive.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Tier Naming Convention
+
+The repository's verification commands SHALL follow a colon-separated naming convention of the form `verify:<tier>[:<scope>]`, where `<tier>` names the verification stage (e.g., `lint`, `compile`, `types`, `unit`, `canary`, `integration`, `build`, `assert`) and `<scope>` optionally disambiguates multi-scope tiers (e.g., `rust`, `ts`, `next`, `showcase`).
+
+Composite orchestrators SHALL use bare names without a scope (`verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:ci`, `verify:next`, `verify:showcase`) and MUST compose atomic tiers in dependency order.
+
+#### Scenario: Atomic tier invocation
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify:unit:rust`
+- **THEN** only the Rust unit tests execute; no TS work runs
+- **AND** the script exits with a non-zero status if any required upstream artifact is absent
+
+#### Scenario: Composite orchestrator invocation
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify`
+- **THEN** the fast-gate atomic tiers execute in dependency order (`verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:canary`)
+- **AND** execution stops at the first failing tier with the failing tier's name visible in output
+
+#### Scenario: Glob-targeted tier family
+
+- **WHEN** an agent is instructed to "run all `verify:assert:*` tiers"
+- **THEN** the naming convention enables enumerating `verify:assert:next` and `verify:assert:showcase` via `package.json` script listing without ambiguity
+
+### Requirement: Atomic Tier Isolation
+
+Every atomic tier SHALL execute its single concern in isolation. An atomic tier MUST NOT silently trigger upstream builds. An atomic tier MUST begin with a shell precondition block that exits with a non-zero status and a human-readable instruction identifying the missing upstream artifact and the exact command to produce it.
+
+The atomic tiers defined by this policy are: `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:canary`, `verify:integration`, `verify:build:next`, `verify:build:showcase`, `verify:assert:next`, `verify:assert:showcase`, `verify:hygiene:rust`.
+
+Atomic tier preconditions SHALL be derived from the actual script each tier invokes (what the tier reads at runtime), not from generic "TS built" assumptions. In particular:
+
+- `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:hygiene:rust` have **no upstream artifact preconditions** — they operate on source. `verify:hygiene:rust` additionally requires the `cargo-machete` binary to be installed on PATH; this is a tool precondition, not an artifact precondition, and fails loud via `require_cargo_machete`.
+- `verify:unit:ts` operates on source via `bun test`'s on-the-fly transpilation — no `dist/` precondition.
+- `verify:canary` requires only a fresh NAPI binary; it does NOT require `packages/extract/dist/` or any other package's `dist/`.
+- `verify:integration` requires a fresh NAPI binary AND a fresh `packages/extract/dist/index.mjs` (mtime newer than `packages/extract/src/**`) AND a fresh `packages/system/dist/` (mtime newer than `packages/system/src/**`) — `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` and `@animus-ui/system` are both resolved via dist at test time.
+- `verify:build:next` requires a fresh NAPI binary AND fresh `packages/extract/dist/` AND fresh `packages/system/dist/` AND fresh `packages/next-plugin/dist/` (each mtime newer than its own package's `src/**`). The bundler invokes the Next plugin at build time and consumer code resolves `@animus-ui/system` through dist.
+- `verify:build:showcase` requires a fresh NAPI binary AND fresh `packages/extract/dist/` AND fresh `packages/system/dist/` AND fresh `packages/vite-plugin/dist/` AND fresh `packages/properties/dist/` (each mtime newer than its own package's `src/**`). The showcase resolves all four packages through dist.
+- `verify:assert:next` requires `e2e/next-app/.next/` build output.
+- `verify:assert:showcase` requires `packages/showcase/dist/` build output.
+
+For any tier that consumes a package's `dist/` at runtime, the precondition SHALL check BOTH existence AND freshness (mtime comparison against that package's `src/**`). An existence-only check that accepts a stale dist SHALL be treated as incorrect — it will silently pass tiers against outdated types or code.
+
+#### Scenario: Missing NAPI binary surfaces as precondition failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:canary` with no `packages/extract/*.node` file present
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr includes the exact message "ERROR: NAPI binary missing. Run: bun run build:extract" (or equivalent identifying the required upstream command)
+
+#### Scenario: Stale NAPI binary surfaces as precondition failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:canary` with a `.node` file older than the newest `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` source file
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr identifies the binary as stale and includes the command `bun run build:extract`
+
+#### Scenario: Present upstream artifact allows tier to run
+
+- **WHEN** the fresh NAPI binary is present
+- **AND** the developer runs `verify:canary`
+- **THEN** the canary tests execute without any build step being re-run by the tier itself
+
+#### Scenario: Tier does not rebuild upstream silently
+
+- **WHEN** `verify:integration` is invoked with `packages/extract/dist/` missing
+- **THEN** the tier exits with a precondition failure identifying `bun run build:ts` (or `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build:ts`) as the required upstream
+- **AND** the tier does NOT invoke the build itself
+
+#### Scenario: Source-reading tier has no artifact precondition
+
+- **WHEN** `verify:compile` or `verify:types` or `verify:unit:ts` runs
+- **THEN** the tier does NOT fail on missing `dist/` artifacts (because it reads source, not `dist/`)
+- **AND** any precondition the script emits is limited to actual runtime inputs (e.g., `bun install` has been run)
+
+#### Scenario: Stale consumer-facing package dist surfaces as precondition failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:build:next` with `packages/system/dist/index.d.ts` older than `packages/system/src/**` source files
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr identifies `packages/system/dist/` as stale and includes the command `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts`
+- **AND** the Next build does NOT run against the stale dist
+
+#### Scenario: Multi-dependency staleness check short-circuits on first failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:build:showcase` with BOTH `packages/system/dist/` and `packages/vite-plugin/dist/` stale
+- **THEN** the script exits 1 at the first stale-dist check it encounters
+- **AND** stderr identifies the first-detected stale package (either one, but only one)
+- **AND** the showcase build does NOT run
+
+#### Scenario: Missing cargo-machete binary surfaces as tool precondition failure
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:hygiene:rust` with no `cargo-machete` binary on PATH
+- **THEN** the script exits 1
+- **AND** stderr includes the exact message "ERROR: cargo-machete missing. Run: cargo install cargo-machete"
+
+#### Scenario: Hygiene tier does not require any built artifact
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:hygiene:rust` with no NAPI binary and no package `dist/` directories present
+- **AND** `cargo-machete` is installed
+- **THEN** the tier runs to completion (source + Cargo.toml is all it reads)
+- **AND** no build of any kind is triggered
+
+### Requirement: Dist Freshness Precondition Pattern
+
+Any atomic tier whose precondition depends on a downstream package's `dist/` directory SHALL check BOTH existence AND freshness using the same shell pattern established by the NAPI binary check: `ls` (or equivalent) for existence, and `find <src-dir> -newer <key-dist-artifact> -print -quit` for freshness. If either check fails, the precondition SHALL emit an `ERROR: <dist> missing/stale. Run: <fix-command>` message to stderr and exit non-zero.
+
+The `<key-dist-artifact>` for each TS package SHALL be resolved by probing `packages/<pkg>/dist/index.mjs` then `packages/<pkg>/dist/index.js` in order, taking the first file that exists. Both are valid published ESM entries — tsdown emits `.mjs` for some workspace packages (e.g., extract, vite-plugin, next-plugin) and `.js` for packages whose `package.json` declares `"type": "module"` (e.g., system, properties). If neither file exists, the dist SHALL be reported as missing. The `<src-dir>` for a TS package SHALL be `packages/<pkg>/src/**` matched against TypeScript source files (`*.ts`, `*.tsx`). For `packages/extract`, `<src-dir>` additionally covers `*.rs` files for the NAPI binary check.
+
+The `<fix-command>` SHALL be the canonical rebuild command for that package. For the NAPI binary: `bun run build:extract`. For a TS package `<pkg>`: `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/<pkg>' build:ts`.
+
+#### Scenario: Fresh-dist check fires on stale consumer dist
+
+- **WHEN** a tier precondition invokes the fresh-dist check for `packages/system`
+- **AND** `packages/system/src/types/config.ts` mtime is newer than the resolved key artifact (`packages/system/dist/index.js` per `system`'s current emission)
+- **THEN** the check exits 1 with message "ERROR: packages/system/dist/ is stale (src newer than dist). Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts"
+
+#### Scenario: Fresh-dist check passes when dist is fresh
+
+- **WHEN** a tier precondition invokes the fresh-dist check for `packages/system`
+- **AND** the resolved key artifact (`packages/system/dist/index.js` per `system`'s current emission) mtime is newer than every file under `packages/system/src/**`
+- **THEN** the check returns success and the tier's primary work proceeds
+
+#### Scenario: Fresh-dist check fires on missing dist
+
+- **WHEN** a tier precondition invokes the fresh-dist check for `packages/system`
+- **AND** `packages/system/dist/` does not exist (or neither `packages/system/dist/index.mjs` nor `packages/system/dist/index.js` is present)
+- **THEN** the check exits 1 with message "ERROR: packages/system/dist/ missing. Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts"
+
+### Requirement: Shared Precondition Helper Library
+
+A shared shell helper SHALL exist at `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` and SHALL be the single authoritative implementation of all atomic-tier precondition checks. Every atomic tier script SHALL source this helper and invoke named helper functions rather than inline precondition logic. Duplication of precondition logic across atomic tier scripts SHALL NOT exist once this helper is in place.
+
+The helper SHALL export at minimum these composable shell functions:
+
+- `require_bun_install` — checks that the canonical type-check implementation binary exists at `node_modules/.bin/<binary>`, where `<binary>` is the binary designated by the `typescript-toolchain` capability's "Type-Check Implementation Selection" requirement; on failure emits `ERROR: <binary> not found at node_modules/.bin/<binary>. Run: bun install` and exits 1. The helper SHALL NOT hard-code a specific binary name; the probe target SHALL be derived from a single source-of-truth (a shell variable defined at the top of the helper, sourced from `package.json` introspection, or equivalent).
+- `require_fresh_napi` — checks `packages/extract/*.node` existence AND mtime newer than every `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` source file; on failure emits the appropriate missing/stale message with fix command `bun run build:extract`.
+- `require_fresh_package_dist <pkg>` — checks the key dist artifact existence AND mtime freshness for the named workspace package; on failure emits the appropriate missing/stale message with fix command `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/<pkg>' build:ts`.
+- `require_dir <path> <fix_command>` — checks that `<path>` exists; on failure emits `ERROR: <path> missing. Run: <fix_command>` and exits 1.
+
+All helper functions SHALL emit errors to stderr and return exit code 1 on failure. The helper SHALL be sourced (not spawned as a subprocess) so the calling tier script inherits exit semantics. The helper SHALL have `set -euo pipefail`-compatible behavior — i.e., not rely on side effects that the caller's strict-mode settings would prevent.
+
+When this Requirement is implemented, the following existing tier scripts MUST be rewritten to call helper functions instead of containing inline precondition logic: `scripts/verify/canary.sh`, `scripts/verify/integration.sh`, `scripts/verify/build-next.sh`, `scripts/verify/build-showcase.sh`, `scripts/verify/assert-next.sh`, `scripts/verify/assert-showcase.sh`, `scripts/verify/compile.sh`, `scripts/verify/types.sh`. Source-only tier scripts (`verify:lint`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:unit:ts`) MAY source the helper for consistency even if they currently require no precondition calls.
+
+#### Scenario: Tier script sources the helper
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer inspects any atomic tier script under `scripts/verify/`
+- **THEN** the script includes `source "$ROOT/scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh"` near the top
+- **AND** all precondition logic is expressed as `require_*` function calls
+- **AND** no inline `ls packages/extract/*.node` / `find -newer` patterns appear in the tier script itself
+
+#### Scenario: Helper is the one authoritative implementation
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer greps `scripts/verify/*.sh` for inline `find -newer` patterns
+- **THEN** matches appear only within `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` — never in an individual tier script
+- **AND** editing the staleness-check logic requires updating exactly one file
+
+#### Scenario: Helper function emits actionable error message
+
+- **WHEN** `require_fresh_package_dist system` is called and `packages/system/dist/` is stale
+- **THEN** stderr contains a line matching `ERROR: packages/system/dist/ is stale (src newer than dist). Run: bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts`
+- **AND** the calling script exits with status 1
+
+#### Scenario: Helper handles NAPI package specialization
+
+- **WHEN** `require_fresh_napi` is invoked and the NAPI binary is stale relative to Rust source
+- **THEN** the emitted error message uses the command `bun run build:extract` (not `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build:ts`)
+- **AND** the script exits with status 1
+
+#### Scenario: require_bun_install probes the canonical type-check binary
+
+- **WHEN** `require_bun_install` is invoked
+- **THEN** the probe target is the canonical type-check implementation binary designated by the `typescript-toolchain` capability — not hard-coded to `tsc`
+- **AND** if the canonical type-check implementation changes, the helper's probe target updates in lockstep with the `typescript-toolchain` capability change
+- **AND** the error message names the actual binary missing (e.g., `tsgo` when `tsgo` is canonical), not a stale prior name
+
+### Requirement: Composite Orchestrators
+
+The repository SHALL provide five composite orchestrators: `verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:ci`, `verify:next`, `verify:showcase`.
+
+- `verify` is the inner-loop fast gate and MUST compose: `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, `verify:types`, `verify:unit:ts`, `verify:unit:rust`, `verify:canary`. It MUST NOT include integration, build, or assert tiers that require full fixture builds or package-dist artifacts.
+- `verify:full` MUST compose `verify` plus `verify:integration`, `verify:build:next`, `verify:build:showcase`, `verify:assert:next`, `verify:assert:showcase`. It runs everything a local developer can run on one machine.
+- `verify:ci` MUST simulate the CI job set and ordering (lint, test-rust, build-extract, verify-equivalent including integration + showcase assert) as closely as practical locally. It MUST invoke `bun run build:extract` and `bun run build:ts` inline (since CI materializes the binary and dist artifacts before verify). It is a best-effort mirror; byte-identical runner reproduction is a non-goal.
+- `verify:next` MUST chain `verify:build:next && verify:assert:next`.
+- `verify:showcase` MUST chain `verify:build:showcase && verify:assert:showcase`.
+
+#### Scenario: verify is the fast gate
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify`
+- **THEN** only the fast-gate tiers execute
+- **AND** no showcase or next-app build is triggered
+- **AND** no integration tests run (they belong to `verify:full`)
+
+#### Scenario: verify:full includes integration + build + assert tiers
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify:full`
+- **THEN** the fast-gate tiers execute first
+- **AND** `verify:integration`, build tiers, and assert tiers execute after in dependency order
+
+#### Scenario: verify:ci mirrors CI ordering and coverage
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify:ci`
+- **THEN** the local execution order matches CI: `verify:lint` → `verify:unit:rust` → `bun run build:extract` → `bun run build:ts` → `verify:compile` → `verify:types` → `verify:unit:ts` → `verify:canary` → `verify:integration` → `verify:build:showcase` → `verify:assert:showcase`
+- **AND** integration tests run (mirroring CI's `bun test` coverage)
+- **AND** showcase build + assert runs (mirroring CI's `bun run test:showcase` step)
+- **AND** release-gated steps are skipped
+
+#### Scenario: verify:next and verify:showcase chain build + assert
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify:next`
+- **THEN** `verify:build:next` runs first
+- **AND** on success, `verify:assert:next` runs against the produced output
+- **AND** on first-tier failure, the second tier does not run
+
+### Requirement: Shell-Based Fail-Loud Preconditions
+
+Every atomic tier script SHALL use shell (`bash`) preconditions at the top of the script to validate upstream artifacts before running its primary work. Preconditions MUST print a clear message to stderr on failure that names the missing or stale artifact and the exact command to produce/refresh it. Preconditions MUST exit with a non-zero status on failure. Preconditions MUST NOT attempt to produce the upstream artifact themselves.
+
+When a tier has multiple upstream preconditions, the script SHALL check each precondition in turn and SHALL short-circuit at the first failure. The failure message SHALL name the first missing/stale artifact and its fix command. (A future Tier-3 amendment may require printing all violations; for now, short-circuit is acceptable.)
+
+#### Scenario: Precondition message is actionable
+
+- **WHEN** a precondition fails
+- **THEN** stderr contains a line matching the shape "ERROR: <what's missing or stale>. Run: <exact command>"
+
+#### Scenario: Precondition is the first executable line
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer inspects any atomic tier script
+- **THEN** the precondition block appears before any command that does the tier's primary work
+
+#### Scenario: NAPI precondition checks mtime freshness
+
+- **WHEN** a tier's precondition checks for the NAPI binary
+- **THEN** the check includes both file existence AND mtime comparison against `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs` newest source
+- **AND** a stale binary surfaces the same error shape as a missing binary
+
+### Requirement: Root CLAUDE.md Verification Tier Table
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL contain a single authoritative Verification Tier Table under a `## Verification Tiers` (or equivalent) heading. The table SHALL include, for every atomic tier and every composite orchestrator, the following columns: `Command`, `What it covers`, `Upstream requires`, `Fails loud when`, `Typical runtime`.
+
+Per-package `CLAUDE.md` files (including but not limited to `packages/system/CLAUDE.md`, `packages/extract/CLAUDE.md`, `packages/vite-plugin/CLAUDE.md`, `packages/showcase/CLAUDE.md`) SHALL NOT duplicate the Verification Tier Table. They MUST link back to the root table for verification commands.
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL include a forward-pointer stating that per-package CLAUDE.md files contain domain-specific guidance that is NOT duplicated at root, encouraging agents to drill into the relevant `packages/<name>/CLAUDE.md` after consulting the root tier table.
+
+#### Scenario: Agent looks up a tier
+
+- **WHEN** an agent loads root `CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** the Verification Tier Table lists every atomic tier and composite orchestrator
+- **AND** for each entry, the agent can read its upstream dependency and fail-loud trigger without following external links
+
+#### Scenario: Per-package file links back
+
+- **WHEN** an agent reads `packages/system/CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** any mention of verification commands links to the root table rather than listing duplicated commands
+
+#### Scenario: Root file points forward
+
+- **WHEN** an agent reads the root `CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** a note directs the agent to per-package `CLAUDE.md` files for domain detail that is not at the root
+
+### Requirement: Change-Type Map
+
+The root `CLAUDE.md` SHALL contain a Change-Type Map: a table with the columns `You changed` (an edit-surface description, e.g., a path glob or behavior) and `Run` (the minimum verification-tier set to run for that change). The map MUST contain 12 canonical rows covering the primary edit surfaces of the repository, plus a sidebar note covering non-verify edit surfaces.
+
+Rows SHALL be added when a new top-level edit surface (e.g., a new publishable package, a new `e2e/*` fixture) is introduced.
+
+The canonical rows:
+
+| You changed                                                           | Run                                                       |
+| --------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `packages/system/src/**`                                              | `verify:compile && verify:types && verify:unit:ts`        |
+| `packages/extract/src/**/*.rs`                                        | `verify:unit:rust && verify:canary && verify:integration` |
+| `packages/extract/src/**/*.ts` (NAPI TS binding / pipeline)           | `verify:canary && verify:integration`                     |
+| `packages/extract/Cargo.toml`                                         | `verify:hygiene:rust`                                     |
+| `packages/vite-plugin/src/**`                                         | `verify:compile && verify:integration && verify:showcase` |
+| `packages/next-plugin/src/**`                                         | `verify:compile && verify:next`                           |
+| `packages/showcase/src/**` (code; MDX content excluded — see sidebar) | `verify:showcase`                                         |
+| `packages/properties/src/**`                                          | `verify:compile && verify:unit:ts`                        |
+| `packages/_integration/__tests__/**`                                  | `verify:integration`                                      |
+| `packages/test-ds/src/**`                                             | `verify:unit:ts && verify:next && verify:showcase`        |
+| `.github/workflows/ci.yaml`, `scripts/**`, `.tool-versions`           | `verify:ci`                                               |
+| Broad refactor across multiple surfaces                               | `verify:full`                                             |
+
+Sidebar — **no verify tier required**: `openspec/**` (run `openspec validate` instead), MDX content under `packages/showcase/src/content/**`, root markdown (`CLAUDE.md`, `README.md`, `docs/**`).
+
+The Change-Type Map SHALL be the authoritative instructability surface for agents selecting minimum verification for a narrow change.
+
+#### Scenario: Agent selects verification set from the map
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only `packages/system/src/**`
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map in root `CLAUDE.md`
+- **THEN** the agent runs `verify:compile && verify:types && verify:unit:ts`
+- **AND** does not run unrelated tiers such as `verify:build:next`
+
+#### Scenario: OpenSpec edit does not trigger verify
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only files under `openspec/`
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map sidebar
+- **THEN** the agent runs `openspec validate` only
+- **AND** does not invoke any `verify:*` tier
+
+#### Scenario: MDX content edit does not trigger verify
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only MDX files under `packages/showcase/src/content/**`
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map sidebar
+- **THEN** no `verify:*` tier is required
+
+#### Scenario: Cargo.toml edit triggers hygiene tier
+
+- **WHEN** an agent modifies only `packages/extract/Cargo.toml`
+- **AND** reads the Change-Type Map
+- **THEN** the agent runs `verify:hygiene:rust`
+- **AND** does not need to run other tiers unless `.rs` sources also changed
+
+#### Scenario: New edit surface requires a map row
+
+- **WHEN** a change introduces a new publishable package or a new top-level edit surface
+- **THEN** the same change MUST add a corresponding row to the Change-Type Map
+
+### Requirement: Per-Package Script Policy
+
+Per-package `package.json` scripts SHALL remain as the implementation invoked by root orchestrators. Root orchestrators MAY invoke per-package scripts via `bun run --filter` or equivalent workspace dispatch. Per-package scripts MUST NOT be duplicated into the root as the primary interface — the Verification Tier Table is the primary interface.
+
+Developers MAY invoke per-package scripts directly (`cd packages/X && bun run <script>`) when working inside a single package.
+
+#### Scenario: Root orchestrator delegates to per-package script
+
+- **WHEN** `verify:integration` runs
+- **THEN** it invokes the per-package test script in `packages/_integration` via the workspace
+- **AND** the implementation lives in `packages/_integration/package.json`, not duplicated at root
+
+### Requirement: Bun Version Pin
+
+A `.tool-versions` file SHALL exist at the repository root declaring the pinned bun version. The `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` file SHALL use `bun-version-file: .tool-versions` on every `oven-sh/setup-bun@v2` step. Bun version upgrades are explicit single-file edits to `.tool-versions`.
+
+If other tooling configuration pins a bun version (for example, `netlify.toml` `BUN_VERSION`), that configuration SHALL be updated in the same change that edits `.tool-versions`, keeping all pin surfaces in sync.
+
+#### Scenario: CI consumes pinned bun version
+
+- **WHEN** a CI workflow step uses `oven-sh/setup-bun@v2`
+- **THEN** it specifies `bun-version-file: .tool-versions`
+- **AND** the installed bun version matches the content of `.tool-versions`
+
+#### Scenario: Local bun version manager respects pin
+
+- **WHEN** a developer uses `asdf`, `mise`, `proto`, or another `.tool-versions`-aware version manager
+- **AND** runs a command inside the repository
+- **THEN** the active bun version matches the content of `.tool-versions`
+
+#### Scenario: Version upgrade is a scoped edit
+
+- **WHEN** a developer upgrades bun
+- **THEN** the change edits `.tool-versions` AND any other pin surface (e.g., `netlify.toml` `BUN_VERSION`) atomically
+- **AND** no CI workflow modifications are required
+
+### Requirement: verify:ci CI-Simulation Semantics
+
+`verify:ci` SHALL reproduce the CI workflow's job set and execution order locally on a best-effort basis. It MUST run the same command sequence as CI jobs `lint`, `test-rust`, `hygiene-rust`, `build-extract`, and `verify` (in that order). It MUST invoke `bun run build:extract` and `bun run build:ts` inline (CI materializes these artifacts before verify). It MUST include `verify:integration` and `verify:build:showcase` + `verify:assert:showcase` (CI runs both).
+
+It MUST NOT attempt runner-OS parity, matrix-target multiplicity (CI builds 3 platform binaries; local builds 1), or release-gated steps.
+
+If CI workflow ordering or coverage changes, `verify:ci` MUST be updated in the same change that modifies `ci.yaml`.
+
+#### Scenario: CI ordering matches locally
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:ci`
+- **THEN** lint runs first, then Rust unit tests, then Rust hygiene, then `bun run build:extract`, then `bun run build:ts`, then the verify-equivalent tiers including integration and showcase assert
+
+#### Scenario: CI workflow edit keeps verify:ci in sync
+
+- **WHEN** a change modifies `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` job ordering or commands
+- **THEN** the same change modifies the `verify:ci` script to match
+
+#### Scenario: hygiene-rust parallel in CI maps to sequential locally
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `verify:ci`
+- **THEN** `verify:hygiene:rust` executes sequentially (local parallelism is not a requirement)
+- **AND** a machete failure surfaces before the build-extract step runs
+
+### Requirement: Rust Dependency Hygiene Capability
+
+The `verify:hygiene:rust` atomic tier SHALL invoke `cargo-machete` against `packages/extract` and SHALL exit with a non-zero status if `cargo-machete` reports any unused dependency. The tier SHALL invoke the detection pass only; `cargo machete --fix` SHALL NOT be invoked by any `verify:*` tier or composite orchestrator.
+
+The tier SHALL expose `cargo-machete`'s native suppression surface — the `[package.metadata.cargo-machete]` section in `packages/extract/Cargo.toml` with its `ignored = [...]` list — as the mechanism available for declaring false-positive suppressions. The specific contents of `ignored` (which crates are listed, what annotations accompany them) SHALL be determined by a separate policy change and are NOT specified by this capability.
+
+CI SHALL expose the tier as a standalone job parallel with the existing Rust jobs. The specific install mechanism for `cargo-machete` in CI (prebuilt-binary action, compile-from-source, cache warmup) is an implementation detail.
+
+#### Scenario: Unused dependency fails the tier
+
+- **WHEN** a contributor adds `foo = "1.0"` to `[dependencies]` in `packages/extract/Cargo.toml`
+- **AND** no `use foo` or equivalent reference appears in `packages/extract/src/**`
+- **AND** `verify:hygiene:rust` runs
+- **THEN** the tier exits with status 1
+- **AND** stderr identifies `foo` as unused
+
+#### Scenario: Legitimately used dependency passes the tier
+
+- **WHEN** every dependency in `[dependencies]` and `[build-dependencies]` is referenced in source (directly or via a `[package.metadata.cargo-machete].ignored` entry)
+- **AND** `verify:hygiene:rust` runs
+- **THEN** the tier exits with status 0
+- **AND** no output indicates any issue
+
+#### Scenario: Suppression mechanism is available
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer needs to suppress a false-positive finding on a specific crate
+- **THEN** they add the crate name to the `[package.metadata.cargo-machete].ignored` list in `packages/extract/Cargo.toml`
+- **AND** the tier re-run ceases to flag that crate
+
+#### Scenario: CI job runs in parallel with test-rust
+
+- **WHEN** a PR triggers the CI workflow
+- **THEN** the `hygiene-rust` job runs in parallel with the `test-rust` job
+- **AND** both share the `dtolnay/rust-toolchain@stable` + `Swatinem/rust-cache@v2` setup pattern
+- **AND** `cargo-machete` is available on the job's PATH before the tier is invoked (e.g., via `taiki-e/install-action@v2` with a pinned tool version, or equivalent)
+
+#### Scenario: Auto-fix is not invoked by any verify tier
+
+- **WHEN** any composite orchestrator (`verify`, `verify:full`, `verify:ci`) runs
+- **THEN** the hygiene tier runs without `--fix`
+- **AND** no Cargo.toml edit occurs as a side effect of verification
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The atomic-tier contract, composite orchestrators, shared precondition helper, Change-Type Map, and CI-simulation semantics defined in this spec are realized through the orchestrator binding designated by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding uses `bun run` to invoke `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh` per atomic tier. A future rebind to a different orchestrator (e.g., Vite+ via the `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` follow-on policy change) SHALL preserve every behavioral requirement in this spec — atomic-tier isolation, loud-fail precondition shape, the `_preconditions.sh` semantics, the Change-Type Map's authoritativeness, the dist-staleness check pattern — while updating only the invocation surface.
+
+The shell helper at `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` SHALL remain in place under any orchestrator binding until and unless an orchestrator-native hook demonstrably preserves every check defined therein with identical semantics. If no native equivalent exists, the orchestrator's task body for any precondition-bearing tier SHALL invoke the existing shell script (e.g., `bash scripts/verify/canary.sh`).
+
+#### Scenario: Atomic-tier loud-fail contract survives orchestrator rebind
+
+- **WHEN** a cutover follow-on rebinds the orchestrator
+- **AND** an atomic tier (e.g., `verify:canary`) is invoked under the new binding
+- **AND** an upstream artifact (e.g., the NAPI binary) is missing or stale
+- **THEN** the binding emits a stderr line matching `ERROR: <what's missing or stale>. Run: <exact command>`
+- **AND** exits non-zero
+- **AND** does NOT trigger an upstream rebuild
+
+#### Scenario: Change-Type Map remains authoritative after rebind
+
+- **WHEN** a cutover follow-on rebinds the orchestrator
+- **THEN** the Change-Type Map in root `CLAUDE.md` is updated in the SAME change to reflect the new invocation surface
+- **AND** the map continues to be the authoritative agent-facing instructability surface for selecting minimum-tier sets
+
+### Requirement: Linter and Formatter Decoupled from Type-Checker
+
+The `verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, and `verify:types` atomic tiers SHALL remain invokable as separate, independently isolatable units. Unified CLI commands that conflate linting, formatting, and type-checking into a single invocation (for example, a single `check` command that runs all three) SHALL NOT replace the granular atomic tiers.
+
+When a tool's CLI offers both unified and granular subcommands, the granular subcommands SHALL be used so each tier preserves its own loud-fail isolation contract per the `Atomic Tier Isolation` requirement. The `verify:lint` tier body SHALL invoke only the linter and formatter — typecheck logic SHALL NOT execute as part of `verify:lint`. The `verify:compile` and `verify:types` tier bodies SHALL each invoke their own dedicated entry points without sharing a unified-command surface with `verify:lint`.
+
+This invariant exists because the `Atomic Tier Isolation` requirement mandates that each tier's failure surface is distinct. Bundling lint + fmt + typecheck into one command would force a tier failure to be reported at the unified-command level, losing the precise tier identification that the Change-Type Map and CI logs depend on. Maintainers consulting CI failure logs SHALL be able to identify the failing tier by name (`verify:lint`, `verify:compile`, or `verify:types`) without parsing the output of a unified command.
+
+This invariant is orchestrator-agnostic. It applies regardless of whether the underlying linter is biome, oxlint, or a future tool; regardless of whether the orchestrator is bun, Vite+, or a future binding. Any tool's unified-CLI surface (e.g., Vite+'s `vp check` which combines `vp lint`, `vp fmt --check`, and a typecheck pass into one invocation) SHALL be rejected as a tier binding in favor of the tool's granular subcommands.
+
+#### Scenario: Linter is invoked as its own tier
+
+- **WHEN** the canonical linter binding offers both a unified command (e.g., `vp check`) and granular subcommands (e.g., `vp lint`, `vp fmt`)
+- **AND** `verify:lint` is invoked
+- **THEN** the tier body invokes only the linter and formatter subcommands — not the typecheck pass
+- **AND** `verify:compile` and `verify:types` are NOT invoked as a side effect
+
+#### Scenario: Tier failure is identifiable from CI logs
+
+- **WHEN** a linter rule violation surfaces in CI
+- **AND** the developer or agent inspects CI logs to identify the failing tier
+- **THEN** the failing job step is named `verify:lint` (or its canonical alias under the active orchestrator)
+- **AND** the failure is NOT attributed to a unified command name (e.g., `vp check`) that would mask which underlying tier failed
+
+#### Scenario: Linter failure does not block typecheck reporting
+
+- **WHEN** `verify:lint` fails because of a lint rule violation
+- **AND** `verify:compile` is subsequently invoked (independently or as part of a composite orchestrator)
+- **THEN** `verify:compile` runs and reports its own pass/fail status against the typecheck implementation
+- **AND** the typecheck failure surface (if any) is reported separately from the lint failure surface
+
+#### Scenario: Formatter check failure is independent of linter pass
+
+- **WHEN** `verify:lint` task body invokes a linter subcommand followed by a formatter check subcommand (e.g., `vp lint && vp fmt --check`)
+- **AND** the linter subcommand passes but the formatter check subcommand fails
+- **THEN** the tier exits non-zero with the formatter's failure message visible
+- **AND** the failure is attributable to the formatter, not the linter
+
+### Requirement: Orchestrator Binding via Vite+ vp run
+
+The atomic tiers, composite orchestrators, shared precondition helper, Change-Type Map, and CI-simulation semantics defined in this spec are dispatched through Vite+ (`vp` CLI). The canonical orchestrator-dispatch surface SHALL be `vp run <tier>` for every atomic tier and composite orchestrator. Migrated tier names SHALL be defined ONLY in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` and SHALL NOT have a corresponding `package.json` `scripts` entry — `vp run X` is the only invocation path for migrated tasks; `bun run <migrated-name>` returns "script not found" by design (hard cutover).
+
+Composite orchestrators SHALL declare their atomic dependencies via `dependsOn` arrays in their `vite.config.ts` task definitions; vp executes upstream tasks before the requested composite per its documented `dependsOn` semantics. Atomic tasks SHALL NOT use `dependsOn` — they declare a `command` of `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh` and rely on the shell script's `_preconditions.sh` `require_*` calls to fail loud on missing/stale upstream artifacts. This split preserves the "atomic tier never silently rebuilds" invariant: vp's `dependsOn` auto-execution is intentionally NOT used where it would conflict with the fail-loud contract.
+
+The shell helper at `scripts/verify/_preconditions.sh` SHALL remain the single authoritative implementation of every atomic-tier precondition. Vite+ task definitions in `vite.config.ts` SHALL invoke `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh` as the task body for every precondition-bearing tier — the precondition logic is NOT reimplemented in vp-native config. The loud-fail message shape (`ERROR: <missing or stale>. Run: <command>`), non-zero exit semantics, and atomic-tier isolation contracts (no silent upstream rebuilds) are preserved verbatim under the new dispatch surface.
+
+A future rebind to a different orchestrator SHALL preserve every behavioral requirement in this spec while updating only the invocation surface — the same constraint that applies to the `bun run` → `vp run` rebind documented here.
+
+#### Scenario: vp run dispatches atomic tier via shell script body
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run verify:canary` at the repository root
+- **THEN** vp invokes `bash scripts/verify/canary.sh` as the task body
+- **AND** the script's stderr and exit code are propagated unchanged to vp's stderr and exit code
+
+#### Scenario: bun run for migrated name fails after cutover
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run verify` at the repository root post-migration
+- **AND** `verify` is defined ONLY in `vite.config.ts` `run.tasks` (not in `package.json` `scripts`)
+- **THEN** bun emits its standard "script not found" error and exits non-zero
+- **AND** the canonical invocation path remains `vp run verify`
+
+#### Scenario: bun run for unmigrated name keeps working
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run check` (or any unmigrated entry such as `clean:light`, `dev:showcase`, `test`, `release`)
+- **THEN** bun executes the corresponding `package.json` `scripts` entry normally
+- **AND** the unmigrated invocation surface is unchanged by this migration
+
+#### Scenario: Loud-fail message shape survives vp dispatch
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run verify:canary` with no `packages/extract/*.node` file present
+- **THEN** the wrapped `bash scripts/verify/canary.sh` invokes `require_fresh_napi`
+- **AND** vp's stderr contains the exact line `ERROR: NAPI binary missing. Run: vp run build:extract`
+- **AND** vp exits with status 1
+- **AND** vp does NOT trigger any rebuild
+
+#### Scenario: Atomic-tier isolation survives vp dispatch
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run verify:integration` with `packages/extract/dist/` missing
+- **THEN** vp's wrapped tier script exits with the precondition failure naming `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/extract' build:ts`
+- **AND** vp does NOT invoke the upstream build
+- **AND** the integration test does NOT run
+
+#### Scenario: \_preconditions.sh remains the authoritative implementation
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer greps `vite.config.ts` for inline precondition logic (mtime checks, dist freshness probes, helper-function definitions)
+- **THEN** no such logic appears in `vite.config.ts`
+- **AND** every precondition-bearing task body is `bash scripts/verify/<tier>.sh`
+- **AND** `_preconditions.sh` continues to be sourced by every tier script as before
+
+### Requirement: vite-plus is a Pinned Root devDependency
+
+The root `package.json` `devDependencies` SHALL include `vite-plus` at a pinned version (no `^`-range, no `~`-range, no `latest` resolution). The pinned version SHALL be a specific Vite+ alpha release identifier. The same pinned version SHALL be installed in CI by the workflow's vite-plus install step.
+
+#### Scenario: Pinned version in package.json
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer reads root `package.json` `devDependencies`
+- **THEN** `vite-plus` appears with a fully-qualified version string (e.g., `"vite-plus": "0.x.y"`)
+- **AND** no range modifier (`^`, `~`, `*`, `latest`) appears
+
+#### Scenario: CI installs the same pinned version
+
+- **WHEN** a CI workflow step installs vite-plus
+- **THEN** the install step references the same version string as `package.json` `devDependencies.vite-plus`
+- **AND** no version drift can occur between local and CI installs

+## Purpose
+
+Vite plugin that bridges the Rust extraction crate with the build pipeline. Loads the design system via subprocess, runs project analysis, serves extracted CSS via virtual module, and transforms source files.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Plugin factory function
+
+The plugin factory SHALL accept a `system` option pointing to the module that exports the SystemInstance. Additionally, it SHALL accept optional `targets` (browserslist query string or array), `minify` (boolean), `strict` (boolean), `prefix` (string), and `layers` (string array) options. External package discovery is driven by `.includes()` calls in the system file — no explicit `packages` option is needed. System loading SHALL use the `loadSystemModule()` NAPI function (Rust-internal OXC + rquickjs) — no subprocess or runtime detection needed.
+
+#### Scenario: System instance path
+
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL load that module via NAPI `loadSystemModule()` to obtain tokens, prop config, group registry, selector aliases, selector order, and global style blocks
+
+#### Scenario: No subprocess or runtime detection
+
+- **WHEN** system loading occurs at buildStart
+- **THEN** no `bun` or `node` subprocess SHALL be spawned — `loadSystemModule()` handles file reading, OXC type stripping, dependency resolution, and rquickjs evaluation internally
+
+#### Scenario: External packages discovered from .includes()
+
+- **WHEN** the system file contains `.includes([testDs])` with `import { ds as testDs } from '@animus-ui/test-ds'`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL discover `@animus-ui/test-ds`, resolve it, and include its source files in extraction
+
+#### Scenario: No .includes() means no external packages
+
+- **WHEN** the system file has no `.includes()` call
+- **THEN** no external packages are discovered — only app source files are extracted
+
+### Requirement: External package module resolution redirect
+
+For discovered external packages with a `src/index.ts`, the plugin SHALL redirect module resolution so the bundler serves source files instead of dist files. This ensures the transform hook processes `.ts` source (with builder chains) rather than `.mjs` dist (which fails extension filters).
+
+#### Scenario: Vite resolveId redirect
+
+- **WHEN** `@animus-ui/test-ds` has `src/index.ts` and the Vite dev server or build resolves the specifier
+- **THEN** the plugin's `resolveId` hook returns the absolute path to `src/index.ts`
+
+#### Scenario: Webpack NormalModuleReplacement redirect
+
+- **WHEN** `@animus-ui/test-ds` has `src/index.ts` and webpack resolves the specifier
+- **THEN** the `NormalModuleReplacementPlugin` `beforeResolve` hook rewrites the request to `src/index.ts`
+
+#### Scenario: No src/ — no redirect
+
+- **WHEN** a discovered package does NOT have `src/` (npm-installed, dist only)
+- **THEN** no redirect occurs — the bundler resolves to dist normally
+
+### Requirement: External package transform/loader exemption
+
+Files under discovered external package directories SHALL bypass extension filters and node_modules exclusion in the transform hook (Vite) and loader rule (Next/webpack). The manifest check is the authoritative gatekeeper.
+
+#### Scenario: Vite transform processes external package files
+
+- **WHEN** a file's path starts with an external package directory prefix
+- **THEN** the transform hook skips the `\.[jt]sx?$` extension check and the `node_modules` guard — the manifest check alone determines whether to transform
+
+#### Scenario: Webpack loader processes external package files
+
+- **WHEN** a file's path starts with an external package directory prefix
+- **THEN** the loader's `test` function accepts `.mjs` files and the `exclude` function allows files inside `node_modules`
+
+#### Scenario: Non-external node_modules still excluded
+
+- **WHEN** a file is in `node_modules` but NOT under any external package directory
+- **THEN** the standard `node_modules` exclusion applies
+
+### Requirement: External package HMR in dev mode
+
+In dev mode, edits to workspace-linked external package files SHALL trigger the HMR handler. The `node_modules` exclude pattern in the HMR handler SHALL be bypassed for files under external package directories.
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace-linked package file change triggers HMR
+
+- **WHEN** a file in a workspace-linked external package changes during dev
+- **THEN** the HMR handler SHALL process it: content-hash check, re-analysis, module invalidation
+
+#### Scenario: Non-external node_modules changes still excluded
+
+- **WHEN** a file in `node_modules/react` changes
+- **THEN** the HMR handler SHALL skip it via the standard exclude pattern
+
+### Requirement: Theme evaluation at build start
+
+Theme evaluation SHALL use the theme's `.serialize()` method when available. The plugin SHALL load the system module once at `buildStart` via subprocess, call `tokens.serialize()` and `ds.serialize()`, and hold the results in memory.
+
+#### Scenario: Modern theme with serialize method
+
+- **WHEN** the loaded theme object has a `.serialize()` method
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL call `theme.serialize()` to obtain `{ scalesJson, variableMapJson, variableCss, contextualVarsJson }`
+
+#### Scenario: Legacy theme without serialize method
+
+- **WHEN** the loaded theme object does NOT have a `.serialize()` method
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL fall back to the local legacy evaluation path
+
+### Requirement: Post-processing utilities imported from extract
+
+The plugin SHALL import post-processing utilities from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` instead of implementing them locally. The plugin calls `analyzeProject()` directly for NAPI analysis, then composes extract's pipeline utilities for post-processing.
+
+#### Scenario: Unit fallback via extract
+
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS needs unit fallback
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL import and call `applyUnitFallback` from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`
+
+#### Scenario: Prefix application via extract
+
+- **WHEN** CSS variables need namespace prefixing
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL import and call `applyPrefix` from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`
+
+#### Scenario: Global styles resolved via extract
+
+- **WHEN** global style blocks are discovered during system loading
+- **THEN** the subprocess SHALL import `resolveGlobalStyles` from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` for resolution
+
+#### Scenario: NAPI called directly
+
+- **WHEN** the plugin runs analysis during buildStart
+- **THEN** it SHALL call `analyzeProject()` from `@animus-ui/extract` directly — not through an intermediary wrapper
+
+### Requirement: Transform post-processing via subprocess
+
+Transform post-processing SHALL use a subprocess to resolve `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders. This is a host concern — transform functions require the system module loaded in a subprocess for ESM isolation, and cannot be delegated to the extract pipeline.
+
+#### Scenario: Transform resolution via subprocess
+
+- **WHEN** extracted CSS contains `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL resolve them by executing live transform functions in a subprocess
+
+### Requirement: CSS-only HMR in dev mode
+
+HMR geological reset detection SHALL check the system file (single file) instead of separate config and theme files.
+
+#### Scenario: System file change triggers geological reset
+
+- **WHEN** the system definition file (the `system` option path) changes during dev
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL trigger a full geological reset: reload the system via `loadSystemModule()` NAPI call, rebuild all caches
+
+#### Scenario: Component file change uses cached system
+
+- **WHEN** a non-system file changes during dev
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL use the cached system config (tokens, propConfig, groupRegistry, transforms) — no system reload
+
+### Requirement: Plugin passes content hashes to Rust in dev mode
+
+In dev mode, the Vite plugin SHALL include per-file content hashes in the `fileEntries` array passed to `analyzeProject()`. Hashes SHALL be computed from the file source text using the existing `contentHash()` function (MD5).
+
+#### Scenario: Dev HMR includes hashes
+
+- **WHEN** `handleHotUpdate` triggers `runAnalysis()` in dev mode
+- **THEN** each file entry includes its content hash from `fileCache`
+
+#### Scenario: Prod build omits hashes
+
+- **WHEN** `buildStart` triggers `runAnalysis()` in prod mode
+- **THEN** file entries do NOT include hashes (full analysis, no caching)
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: Plugin passes dev_mode flag to Rust
+
+In dev mode, the Vite plugin SHALL pass `dev_mode: true` to `analyzeProject()`. In prod mode, `dev_mode` SHALL be `false` or omitted.
+
+#### Scenario: Dev server analysis
+
+- **WHEN** the Vite dev server calls `runAnalysis()`
+- **THEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: true`
+
+#### Scenario: Production build analysis
+
+- **WHEN** a production Vite build calls `runAnalysis()`
+- **THEN** `analyzeProject()` is called with `dev_mode: false` or the parameter is omitted
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: Geological reset clears Rust cache
+
+When a geological reset occurs (theme, config, or system file change), the plugin SHALL call `clearAnalysisCache()` to clear the Rust-side per-file cache, then run `analyzeProject()` with full file sources (not empty sources). This ensures all files are re-parsed against the updated theme/config/system.
+
+#### Scenario: System file change clears cache
+
+- **WHEN** the system module file changes triggering a geological reset
+- **THEN** `clearAnalysisCache()` is called, then `analyzeProject()` re-parses all files from source (cache fully invalidated)
+
+#### Scenario: Geological reset sends full sources
+
+- **WHEN** the cache has been cleared for a geological reset
+- **THEN** all file entries include full source text (not empty strings), because cache misses require source for OXC parsing
+
+---
+
+### Requirement: System prop map virtual module
+
+The Vite plugin SHALL serve a virtual module at `virtual:animus/system-props` that exports the shared system prop map, system prop groups, dynamic prop configuration, and transform functions. The dynamic prop configuration and transforms SHALL only be included when dynamic prop usage is detected.
+
+#### Scenario: Resolve virtual module ID
+
+- **WHEN** a source file imports `from 'virtual:animus/system-props'`
+- **THEN** the plugin's `resolveId` hook SHALL resolve it to an internal virtual module ID (e.g., `\0virtual:animus/system-props`)
+
+#### Scenario: Load virtual module with dynamic props
+
+- **WHEN** the extraction detected dynamic usage for props `p` and `borderRadius` with `borderRadius` having a `size` transform
+- **THEN** the plugin's `load` hook SHALL return exports including `systemPropMap`, `systemPropGroups`, `dynamicPropConfig`, and `transforms` — with `transforms` containing only the `size` function
+
+#### Scenario: Load virtual module without dynamic props
+
+- **WHEN** no dynamic prop usage was detected across the project
+- **THEN** the plugin's `load` hook SHALL return exports including only `systemPropMap` and `systemPropGroups` — `dynamicPropConfig` and `transforms` SHALL NOT be exported
+
+#### Scenario: Module available during dev
+
+- **WHEN** the Vite dev server is running
+- **THEN** `virtual:animus/system-props` SHALL be resolvable and serve the current data from the most recent extraction
+
+#### Scenario: Module available during build
+
+- **WHEN** `vite build` runs in production mode
+- **THEN** `virtual:animus/system-props` SHALL be resolvable and serve data from the full-project extraction
+
+### Requirement: System prop map HMR invalidation
+
+During dev mode, the plugin SHALL invalidate the `virtual:animus/system-props` module ONLY when the system prop map content changes between extraction runs.
+
+#### Scenario: Map changed after file edit
+
+- **WHEN** a file edit causes re-extraction and the resulting system prop map differs from the cached version
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL invalidate the `virtual:animus/system-props` module in Vite's module graph, triggering HMR for all importing modules
+
+#### Scenario: Map unchanged after file edit
+
+- **WHEN** a file edit causes re-extraction but the system prop map is identical to the cached version
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL NOT invalidate the `virtual:animus/system-props` module — no unnecessary HMR propagation
+
+#### Scenario: Geological reset invalidates map
+
+- **WHEN** the system definition file changes (triggering a full geological reset with theme/scale reload)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL re-extract, generate a new system prop map, and invalidate the virtual module if the map changed
+
+### Requirement: Transform function serialization in virtual module
+
+The plugin SHALL serialize transform functions used by dynamic props (both system and custom) into the `virtual:animus/system-props` module as the `transforms` export. Each transform is serialized using `Function.prototype.toString()`. Only transforms actually referenced by dynamic prop configurations (system or custom) SHALL be included.
+
+When custom props reference transforms (via `transformName` in their `PropConfig`), those transform functions SHALL be included in the shared `transforms` export alongside system prop transforms. The transforms are shared by name — the same `size` transform used by system props and custom props is serialized once.
+
+#### Scenario: System prop transform serialized
+
+- **WHEN** a system prop has dynamic usage and references transform `size`
+- **THEN** the `transforms` export includes `size` serialized via `Function.prototype.toString()`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom prop transform serialized
+
+- **WHEN** a custom prop has dynamic usage and its `PropConfig` specifies `transform: 'size'`
+- **THEN** the `transforms` export includes `size` (shared with system props if both use it)
+
+#### Scenario: Custom-only transform serialized
+
+- **WHEN** a custom prop references a transform not used by any system prop (e.g., a user-defined transform)
+- **THEN** the `transforms` export includes that transform function
+
+#### Scenario: No dynamic usage means no transform serialized
+
+- **WHEN** a custom prop has a transform in its config but only static usage detected
+- **THEN** that transform is NOT included in the `transforms` export
+
+### Requirement: Dynamic prop config in virtual module
+
+The `virtual:animus/system-props` module SHALL export `dynamicPropConfig` containing metadata for system props with dynamic usage. This config is shared across all components.
+
+Custom prop dynamic config SHALL NOT be included in the virtual module. Custom dynamic config is per-component and is inlined in each component's `createComponent` config object by the transform emitter.
+
+#### Scenario: System dynamic config in virtual module
+
+- **WHEN** system props have dynamic usage detected
+- **THEN** `dynamicPropConfig` is exported from `virtual:animus/system-props`
+
+#### Scenario: Custom dynamic config NOT in virtual module
+
+- **WHEN** custom props have dynamic usage detected
+- **THEN** `dynamicPropConfig` does NOT include custom prop entries — they are inlined per-component
+
+#### Scenario: Both system and custom dynamic props
+
+- **WHEN** both system and custom props have dynamic usage
+- **THEN** `dynamicPropConfig` contains only system prop entries; custom entries are in per-component config objects
+
+### Requirement: Custom prop transform discovery
+
+During `buildStart` analysis, the plugin SHALL discover transform references from custom prop configs in the manifest. For each component with custom props that have dynamic usage, the plugin SHALL check the component's custom prop config for `transform_name` fields and include those transforms in the serialization set.
+
+Transform discovery SHALL iterate all components in the manifest, not just system prop configs. This ensures custom-prop-only transforms (not used by any system prop) are still serialized.
+
+#### Scenario: Transform used only by custom props
+
+- **WHEN** a custom prop references transform `borderShorthand` but no system prop uses it dynamically
+- **THEN** `borderShorthand` is still serialized in the `transforms` export
+
+#### Scenario: No custom props with transforms
+
+- **WHEN** no custom props reference any transforms
+- **THEN** transform discovery is unchanged from pre-change behavior (system props only)
+
+### Requirement: Plugin accepts browser target configuration
+
+The `animusExtract()` plugin factory SHALL accept optional `targets` and `minify` configuration options for CSS post-processing.
+
+#### Scenario: Explicit browserslist targets
+
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts', targets: '> 1%, last 2 versions' })`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL use those browserslist queries to derive Lightning CSS browser targets
+
+#### Scenario: Array of browserslist queries
+
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ targets: ['> 1%', 'not dead'] })`
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL combine the queries to derive browser targets
+
+#### Scenario: No explicit targets — browserslist auto-detection
+
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract()` with no `targets` option
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL auto-detect browserslist config from the project (`.browserslistrc`, `package.json#browserslist`, `BROWSERSLIST` env var)
+
+#### Scenario: No browserslist config found — defaults
+
+- **WHEN** no explicit targets and no browserslist config is found in the project
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL use `defaults` as the browserslist query (equivalent to `> 0.5%, last 2 versions, Firefox ESR, not dead`)
+
+#### Scenario: Explicit minify override
+
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ minify: true })`
+- **THEN** CSS SHALL be minified in both dev and prod modes regardless of the default behavior
+
+#### Scenario: Explicit minify disable
+
+- **WHEN** consumer configures `animusExtract({ minify: false })`
+- **THEN** CSS SHALL NOT be minified in any mode (autoprefixing still applies)
+
+### Requirement: Post-processing in virtual module load hooks
+
+The plugin's `load()` hook SHALL run CSS through Lightning CSS post-processing before returning content for virtual modules. This applies to all virtual modules that serve CSS content.
+
+#### Scenario: Production styles.css post-processed
+
+- **WHEN** `virtual:animus/styles.css` is loaded during a production build
+- **THEN** the concatenated CSS (variables + globals + component CSS) SHALL be post-processed with minification and autoprefixing before being returned
+
+#### Scenario: Dev styles.css post-processed
+
+- **WHEN** `virtual:animus/styles.css` is loaded during dev server
+- **THEN** the CSS (layer declaration + variables + globals) SHALL be post-processed with autoprefixing only (no minification) before being returned
+
+#### Scenario: Dev component CSS post-processed
+
+- **WHEN** `virtual:animus/components.js` is loaded during dev server
+- **THEN** the component CSS string (exported as JS template literal) SHALL be post-processed with autoprefixing only before being embedded in the JS module
+
+#### Scenario: HMR update CSS post-processed
+
+- **WHEN** a file change triggers HMR and new component CSS is generated
+- **THEN** the updated component CSS SHALL be post-processed before being served via the HMR bridge
+
+### Requirement: Post-processing pipeline order
+
+Lightning CSS post-processing SHALL be the LAST step in the CSS post-processing chain, after transform placeholder resolution and unit fallback.
+
+#### Scenario: Transform resolution before Lightning CSS
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains `__TRANSFORM__[size](0.5)__` placeholders
+- **THEN** transforms are resolved first, then the fully-resolved CSS is passed to Lightning CSS
+
+#### Scenario: Unit fallback before Lightning CSS
+
+- **WHEN** CSS contains bare numeric values that need px suffixing
+- **THEN** unit fallback is applied first, then the corrected CSS is passed to Lightning CSS
+
+### Requirement: Target resolution at plugin initialization
+
+Browser targets SHALL be resolved once during plugin `configResolved` or `buildStart`, not on every CSS processing call. The resolved targets are held in closure for the duration of the build.
+
+#### Scenario: Targets resolved once
+
+- **WHEN** the plugin initializes with `targets: '> 1%'`
+- **THEN** the browserslist query is resolved to Lightning CSS targets once and cached
+
+#### Scenario: Targets available for all virtual modules
+
+- **WHEN** multiple virtual modules are loaded during a build
+- **THEN** all use the same pre-resolved targets without re-computing
+
+### Requirement: Strict mode subprocess error propagation
+
+When the plugin is configured with `strict: true`, subprocess failures in `loadSystem()`, `resolveGlobalStyles()`, and `resolveTransforms()` SHALL throw errors that halt the build. When `strict` is `false` or omitted, the default behavior (log a warning and continue) is preserved.
+
+#### Scenario: Strict mode — loadSystem failure throws
+
+- **WHEN** the plugin is configured with `strict: true` and the system subprocess exits with a non-zero code or produces an error
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL throw an error, halting the Vite build with a descriptive message
+
+#### Scenario: Strict mode — resolveGlobalStyles failure throws
+
+- **WHEN** the plugin is configured with `strict: true` and the global-styles subprocess fails
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL throw an error rather than logging a warning and continuing
+
+#### Scenario: Strict mode — resolveTransforms failure throws
+
+- **WHEN** the plugin is configured with `strict: true` and the transforms subprocess fails
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL throw an error rather than logging a warning and continuing
+
+#### Scenario: Default mode — subprocess failure logs warning
+
+- **WHEN** the plugin is configured without `strict` (or `strict: false`) and any subprocess fails
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL log a warning and continue — no error is thrown, existing behavior is unchanged
+
+### Requirement: Scoped build-time state (no bare globalThis keys)
+
+The plugin SHALL NOT use bare `globalThis` keys for any build-time state. All build-time state (system cache, file cache, analysis results, transform registry) SHALL be held in closure-scoped variables within the plugin factory function. HMR state keys that must persist across Vite's internal module re-evaluations SHALL be namespaced with a hash derived from the system module path to prevent collisions when multiple plugin instances are active.
+
+#### Scenario: Plugin factory uses closure scope
+
+- **WHEN** the `animusExtract()` factory is called
+- **THEN** all mutable build-time state (loaded system, file cache, prop map cache) SHALL be declared as `let` / `const` variables inside the factory closure — not attached to `globalThis`
+
+#### Scenario: No bare globalThis assignment
+
+- **WHEN** any plugin code runs (buildStart, load, transform, handleHotUpdate)
+- **THEN** no code SHALL assign to `globalThis.<unprefixed_key>` for build-time bookkeeping
+
+#### Scenario: HMR state namespaced by system path hash
+
+- **WHEN** two plugin instances are instantiated with different `system` paths in the same Vite process
+- **THEN** any HMR-related state that must survive module re-evaluation SHALL use keys namespaced with a hash of the respective system module path, ensuring the instances do not share or overwrite each other's state
+
+### Requirement: EmitterConfig construction
+
+The Vite plugin SHALL construct an `EmitterConfig` with default values (`runtime_import: '@animus-ui/system'`, `css_module_id: 'virtual:animus/styles.css'`) and pass it to `analyzeProject()`.
+
+#### Scenario: Backward-compatible defaults
+
+- **WHEN** the Vite plugin calls `analyzeProject()`
+- **THEN** it SHALL include emitter config JSON with the existing default import source and virtual CSS module ID
+- **AND** the transformed output SHALL be identical to the current behavior
+
+### Requirement: Dev server reference stored via configureServer
+
+The plugin SHALL implement a `configureServer` hook that stores the Vite dev server reference in the plugin closure. This reference SHALL be available to other hooks (`transform`, `handleHotUpdate`) for programmatic module invalidation and HMR updates.
+
+#### Scenario: Server reference available during transform
+
+- **WHEN** the dev server is running and a `transform` call needs to invalidate a virtual module
+- **THEN** the stored server reference SHALL be available for calling `server.moduleGraph.invalidateModule()` and `server.hot.send()`
+
+#### Scenario: Server reference not set in production
+
+- **WHEN** the plugin runs during a production build (`vite build`)
+- **THEN** no `configureServer` hook fires and the server reference SHALL remain `undefined`
+- **AND** transform SHALL not attempt CSS invalidation
+
+### Requirement: Verbose timing waterfall display
+
+When verbose mode is enabled, the vite-plugin SHALL display a hierarchical per-phase timing waterfall after extraction completes. The waterfall SHALL nest JS-side phases around Rust-side phases, showing the complete cost decomposition from plugin entry to output.
+
+#### Scenario: Verbose buildStart shows hierarchical breakdown
+
+- **WHEN** `verbose: true` or `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1` is set and `buildStart` completes
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL log a hierarchical waterfall showing JS phases (system-load, file-discovery, file-read+hash, package-resolve, analysis) with the analysis phase decomposed into json-serialize, rust-extract (with nested Rust PipelineTiming phases), and json-parse
+
+#### Scenario: Verbose HMR shows phase breakdown
+
+- **WHEN** verbose mode is enabled and an HMR update triggers re-analysis
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL log the hierarchical waterfall after the HMR timing summary
+
+#### Scenario: Non-verbose mode unchanged
+
+- **WHEN** `verbose` is false and `ANIMUS_DEBUG` is not set
+- **THEN** no timing waterfall SHALL be displayed and no `performance.now()` calls SHALL occur (zero-cost gate)
+
+#### Scenario: Transform aggregate reported
+
+- **WHEN** verbose mode is active and a build or HMR cycle completes transforms
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL log a transform summary line with total time, file count, min, max, and average per-file duration
+
+### Requirement: Dead subprocess code removed
+
+The vite-plugin SHALL NOT contain any subprocess-related source files or imports. The `resolve-global-styles.ts` standalone script SHALL be deleted.
+
+#### Scenario: No subprocess files
+
+- **WHEN** the vite-plugin source directory is listed
+- **THEN** `resolve-global-styles.ts` SHALL NOT exist
+
+#### Scenario: No subprocess references in comments
+
+- **WHEN** vite-plugin source is searched for "subprocess"
+- **THEN** zero matches SHALL be found in source comments (JSDoc and inline)
+
+### Requirement: Fragment-aware HMR splice
+
+In dev mode, the vite-plugin SHALL use per-component CSS fragments from the manifest to enable targeted HMR updates. On file change, only the changed file's component fragments SHALL be replaced in the cached fragment set before re-concatenating affected layers.
+
+#### Scenario: Single file change updates only its fragments
+
+- **WHEN** a file containing 3 components is edited during dev
+- **THEN** only those 3 components' fragments SHALL be recomputed via re-analysis
+- **AND** fragments for all other components SHALL be preserved from cache
+
+#### Scenario: Extension chain invalidation
+
+- **WHEN** a file containing a parent component is edited
+- **THEN** fragments for all descendant components (via reverse_provenance BFS) SHALL also be invalidated and recomputed
+
+### Requirement: Consumer-configurable file-extension list with sensible defaults
+
+The bundler adapter plugins (`@animus-ui/vite-plugin`, `@animus-ui/next-plugin`) SHALL expose a `extensions?: string[]` option on their respective options interfaces (`AnimusExtractOptions`, `AnimusNextOptions`). When the option is undefined, both adapters SHALL default to a shared `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` constant exported from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`. The default SHALL include `.ts`, `.tsx`, `.js`, `.jsx`, and `.mdx`. Both adapters SHALL import the default from the same source of truth — independent redeclaration SHALL be considered a regression.
+
+Adapter parity: any change to the default extension list lands in one module (`packages/extract/pipeline/mdx-preprocessor.ts`) and propagates to both plugins by import.
+
+#### Scenario: Default extensions include `.mdx`
+
+- **WHEN** a plugin is invoked without an `extensions` option
+- **THEN** the plugin's file-discovery walk SHALL include `.ts`, `.tsx`, `.js`, `.jsx`, and `.mdx` files, matching the shared `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` constant
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer override replaces the list
+
+- **WHEN** a plugin is invoked with `extensions: ['.ts', '.tsx']`
+- **THEN** the file-discovery walk SHALL walk ONLY `.ts` and `.tsx` files — the consumer's list fully replaces the default, no additive merge
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer can add extensions beyond the default
+
+- **WHEN** a plugin is invoked with `extensions: ['.ts', '.tsx', '.js', '.jsx', '.mdx', '.md']`
+- **THEN** the file-discovery walk SHALL include `.md` files alongside the default set. The plugin does NOT attempt preprocessing for unknown extensions — `.md` files are handed directly to the scanner (which will skip them as non-JSX) unless a preprocessor for `.md` exists
+
+#### Scenario: Both plugins import the shared constant
+
+- **WHEN** either plugin's source is inspected
+- **THEN** the file-discovery walk's default-extension resolution SHALL be `options.extensions ?? DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` (where `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` is imported from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`). Neither plugin SHALL carry its own local copy of the default list
+
+### Requirement: File-discovery walk includes `.mdx` sources by default
+
+The bundler adapter plugins SHALL include `.mdx` files in their `buildStart` file-discovery walk alongside existing `.ts`/`.tsx`/`.js`/`.jsx` coverage — via the `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` default (see preceding requirement), not as a hardcoded module-local list. MDX files SHALL be pre-processed into scanner-consumable JSX form before being passed to the Rust NAPI `analyzeProject` call. Pre-processing failures on individual files SHALL warn via the plugin's logger (prefix `[animus] ⚠`) and exclude that file from the scanner input, without halting the build.
+
+#### Scenario: `.mdx` files appear in the scanner's input set (default config)
+
+- **WHEN** the vite-plugin's or next-plugin's `buildStart` runs with default options AND `.mdx` files present under the discovery root
+- **THEN** those files SHALL be included in the scanner input (after MDX→JSX pre-processing) and their JSX references counted by the usage ledger
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer opt-out via `extensions` override
+
+- **WHEN** a plugin is invoked with `extensions: ['.ts', '.tsx', '.js', '.jsx']` (dropping `.mdx`)
+- **THEN** the file-discovery walk SHALL NOT include `.mdx` files, MDX preprocessing SHALL NOT be invoked, and the `@mdx-js/mdx` peer-dep SHALL NOT be dynamically imported (zero install-footprint cost for MDX-free consumers)
+
+#### Scenario: Pre-processing failure does not halt the build
+
+- **WHEN** an individual `.mdx` file fails MDX→JSX pre-processing (malformed frontmatter, invalid JSX, etc.)
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL emit a `[animus] ⚠ MDX preprocessing failed for <file>: <error>` warning via its logger, exclude that file from scanner input, and continue the buildStart with remaining files
+
+#### Scenario: MDX-rendered component extracts in production builds
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run clean:full && bun run verify:build:showcase` completes with MDX files rendering ds-built components (e.g. `<MetricGrid>` in `packages/showcase/src/content/**/*.mdx`)
+- **THEN** the resulting `packages/showcase/dist/assets/styles-*.css` SHALL contain the component's CSS rules — `animus-MetricGrid*` selectors SHALL be present
+
+#### Scenario: Adapter-parity via shared constant
+
+- **WHEN** either adapter's default extensions are inspected
+- **THEN** the default SHALL trace to the single `DEFAULT_EXTENSIONS` export in `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline`. Parity drift (one plugin's default list differing from the other's) is impossible unless a plugin bypasses the shared import — which SHALL be considered a regression
+
+### Requirement: `@mdx-js/mdx` declared as peer-dep-optional, loaded via dynamic import
+
+The plugin packages SHALL declare `@mdx-js/mdx` in both `peerDependencies` (range `^3.0.0`) AND `peerDependenciesMeta: { "@mdx-js/mdx": { optional: true } }`. The preprocessor module SHALL load `@mdx-js/mdx` via `await import('@mdx-js/mdx').catch(() => null)` — dynamic, with null-fallback on resolution failure.
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer with `.mdx` in extensions and `@mdx-js/mdx` installed
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer has `.mdx` in `options.extensions` (or defaults) AND `@mdx-js/mdx@^3` resolvable in their module graph
+- **THEN** MDX files SHALL preprocess and feed to the scanner as expected
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer with `.mdx` in extensions but `@mdx-js/mdx` absent
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer has `.mdx` in `options.extensions` but `@mdx-js/mdx` is NOT resolvable
+- **THEN** the plugin SHALL emit a one-shot buildStart warning `[animus] ⚠ .mdx in extensions but @mdx-js/mdx not installed; MDX files skipped` and SHALL continue the build with `.mdx` files excluded from scanner input
+
+#### Scenario: Consumer without `.mdx` in extensions
+
+- **WHEN** a consumer configures `options.extensions` to exclude `.mdx`
+- **THEN** the preprocessor SHALL NOT be invoked, `@mdx-js/mdx` SHALL NOT be dynamically imported, and non-MDX consumers SHALL pay zero install footprint cost regardless of whether `@mdx-js/mdx` is resolvable

+## Purpose
+
+A minimal Vite consumer fixture SHALL live at `e2e/vite-app/` that exercises the extraction pipeline via `@animus-ui/vite-plugin`. It mirrors the `e2e/next-app` pattern: a small set of components importing from `@animus-ui/test-ds`, its own system definition, and post-build structural assertions. The fixture exists to verify the Vite extraction path end-to-end without pulling in docs-site weight.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Contrived Vite test application
+
+A minimal Vite application SHALL exist at `e2e/vite-app/` that exercises the extraction pipeline via `@animus-ui/vite-plugin`. It SHALL mirror the `e2e/next-app` pattern: a small set of components importing from `@animus-ui/test-ds`, its own system definition, and post-build structural assertions.
+
+#### Scenario: Workspace registration
+
+- **WHEN** the root `package.json` workspaces list is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL include `"e2e/vite-app"`
+
+#### Scenario: Package identity
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/vite-app/package.json` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL have `"name": "@animus-ui/vite-app"`, `"private": true`, and `"type": "module"`
+- **AND** the name SHALL conform to the `e2e-workspace-convention` naming requirement (no `e2e`/`test`/`fixture` prefix or suffix)
+
+### Requirement: Vite configuration with extraction plugin
+
+The fixture SHALL use `animusExtract()` from `@animus-ui/vite-plugin` pointing to its own system file.
+
+#### Scenario: Plugin configuration
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/vite-app/vite.config.ts` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL import `animusExtract` from `@animus-ui/vite-plugin` and `react` from `@vitejs/plugin-react`
+- **AND** it SHALL call `animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })`
+
+### Requirement: System definition from test-ds
+
+The fixture SHALL define its own `src/ds.ts` that imports theme and system from `@animus-ui/test-ds` or builds a minimal system directly, producing a `SystemInstance` default export.
+
+#### Scenario: System file exists and exports correctly
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/vite-app/src/ds.ts` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL export a `SystemInstance` as the default export
+- **AND** it SHALL use `@animus-ui/system` builder APIs (`createSystem`, `createTheme`)
+
+### Requirement: Component fixtures exercise builder chain surface
+
+The fixture SHALL include components that collectively exercise: base styles (`.styles()`), variants (`.variant()`), compound variants (`.compound()`), states (`.states()`), system props (`.props()`), extension chains (`.extend()`), and composition (`compose()`).
+
+#### Scenario: Component inventory
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/vite-app/src/components/` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain components covering at minimum: a base-styled element, a component with variants, a component with states, an extension chain (parent + child), and a composed family
+
+#### Scenario: Components import from test-ds
+
+- **WHEN** the fixture components are inspected
+- **THEN** at least one component SHALL import from `@animus-ui/test-ds` to exercise cross-package extraction
+
+### Requirement: Build and assertion scripts
+
+The fixture SHALL include build scripts and structural post-build assertions runnable from the repo root.
+
+#### Scenario: Build script
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/vite-app' build` is executed
+- **THEN** Vite SHALL build the app to `e2e/vite-app/dist/`
+
+#### Scenario: Root-level verification commands
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify:build:vite` is executed from the repo root
+- **THEN** it SHALL build the Vite fixture app via `scripts/verify/build-vite.sh`
+- **AND** when `bun run verify:assert:vite` is executed
+- **THEN** it SHALL run post-build assertions via `scripts/verify/assert-vite.sh`
+- **AND** when `bun run verify:vite` is executed
+- **THEN** it SHALL run both in sequence and exit with zero status when all assertions pass
+
+#### Scenario: Integration with verify:full
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify:full` is executed
+- **THEN** it SHALL include `verify:build:vite && verify:assert:vite` in its pipeline
+
+### Requirement: Fixture stays minimal
+
+The fixture SHALL NOT include: MDX, animation libraries, icon libraries, routing, or any dependency not required for extraction testing. Dependencies SHALL be limited to `react`, `react-dom`, `@animus-ui/system`, `@animus-ui/test-ds`, `@animus-ui/vite-plugin`, `@vitejs/plugin-react`, and `vite`.
+
+#### Scenario: Dependency audit
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/vite-app/package.json` dependencies are inspected
+- **THEN** no dependency outside the allowed list SHALL be present
+
+### Requirement: Keyframes collection fixture exists in Vite test app
+
+The Vite test app's system module (`e2e/vite-app/src/ds.ts`) SHALL export a named `animations` binding that is the return value of `ds.createKeyframes({...})` — the builder-bound keyframes factory destructured from `createSystem({...}).build()`. The collection SHALL declare at least two distinct named keyframes with different frame bodies. At least one frame body entry SHALL reference a theme token so the `ThemedCSSProps<Theme>` typing contract is exercised under the rollup (Vite) build path in parallel to the Next adapter coverage.
+
+#### Scenario: `animations` export is produced by the bound factory
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/vite-app/src/ds.ts` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL destructure `createKeyframes` from `createSystem({...}).build()` alongside `system`
+- **AND** it SHALL export `animations = ds.createKeyframes({ <name1>: { ... }, <name2>: { ... } })` where `<name1>` and `<name2>` have different frame bodies
+- **AND** the file SHALL NOT contain `import { keyframes } from '@animus-ui/system'`
+
+#### Scenario: At least one frame body references a theme token
+
+- **WHEN** the `animations` collection is inspected
+- **THEN** at least one stop within at least one keyframe SHALL contain a value of the form `{scale.key}` referencing a scale defined on the fixture's theme
+- **AND** the `@keyframes` block emitted by the Vite build SHALL resolve that reference to the CSS variable produced by the theme emitter
+
+### Requirement: Vite app renders a keyframes-consuming component
+
+`e2e/vite-app/src/App.tsx` SHALL import and render at least one component whose `ds.styles()` declaration includes `animationName: animations.<key>` referencing the fixture's `animations` collection.
+
+#### Scenario: Component consumes a branded keyframe ref
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/vite-app/src/components/` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL contain at least one component file whose `ds.styles({...})` call includes `animationName: animations.<key>` as a literal member expression
+
+#### Scenario: Component is rendered in App.tsx
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/vite-app/src/App.tsx` is inspected
+- **THEN** the keyframes-consuming component SHALL appear in the returned JSX tree
+
+#### Scenario: Component is exported from the components barrel
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/vite-app/src/components/index.ts` is inspected
+- **THEN** the keyframes-consuming component SHALL be re-exported
+
+### Requirement: Post-build assertion validates keyframes extraction
+
+The Vite post-build assertion script (`e2e/vite-app/scripts/assert-build.ts`) SHALL invoke `assertKeyframesExtracted` from `@animus-ui/assertions` against the concatenated CSS output from `dist/`, with `insideLayer: 'anm-global'` and `minBlocks` matching the count of named keyframes declared in the fixture's `animations` collection.
+
+#### Scenario: Assertion script imports and invokes the helper
+
+- **WHEN** `e2e/vite-app/scripts/assert-build.ts` is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL import `assertKeyframesExtracted` from `@animus-ui/assertions`
+- **AND** it SHALL call `assertKeyframesExtracted(css, { insideLayer: 'anm-global', minBlocks: <N>, minReferences: 1 })` where `<N>` matches the fixture's keyframe count
+
+#### Scenario: Build failure when keyframes block is missing
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run verify:vite` is executed and the build output CSS is missing an expected `@keyframes animus-kf-<hash>` block
+- **THEN** `verify:assert:vite` SHALL exit with non-zero status
+- **AND** the failure message SHALL identify the missing block via `AssertionError.details`
+
+#### Scenario: Build failure when animation-name references are mangled with px
+
+- **WHEN** the build output CSS contains any `animation-name: animus-kf-<hash>px` substring
+- **THEN** `verify:assert:vite` SHALL exit with non-zero status
+- **AND** the failure message SHALL identify the mangled value

+# workspace-build-ordering Specification
+
+## Purpose
+
+Ensure the monorepo build system derives package build order from dependency declarations rather than hand-maintained script chains, supporting both TS-only and full builds with consistent package script naming.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Requirement: Dependency-derived build ordering
+
+The monorepo build system SHALL derive package build order from `package.json` dependency declarations, not from hand-maintained script chains. Adding a new package SHALL NOT require editing root build scripts.
+
+#### Scenario: New package added
+
+- **WHEN** a new package is added to the workspace with appropriate `dependencies` in its `package.json`
+- **THEN** running `bun run build:ts` SHALL build it in the correct topological position without any root script changes
+
+#### Scenario: Topological ordering respected
+
+- **WHEN** package A depends on package B
+- **THEN** `bun run build:ts` SHALL build B before A
+
+### Requirement: Two-tier build strategy
+
+The build system SHALL support two build tiers: a fast TS-only build (`build:ts`) and a full build including Rust NAPI compilation (`build:all`).
+
+#### Scenario: TS-only build
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run build:ts` is executed
+- **THEN** all TS library packages SHALL build their TypeScript output only (no Rust compilation)
+
+#### Scenario: Full build
+
+- **WHEN** `bun run build:all` is executed
+- **THEN** the Rust NAPI crate SHALL build first, followed by all TS library packages
+
+### Requirement: Consistent package script naming
+
+Every buildable library package SHALL have a `build:ts` script for TS-only builds. Packages that are TS-only SHALL alias `build` to `build:ts`.
+
+#### Scenario: TS-only package scripts
+
+- **WHEN** a TS-only package (e.g., system, vite-plugin) is inspected
+- **THEN** it SHALL have both `build:ts` and `build` scripts, where `build` executes `build:ts`
+
+#### Scenario: Mixed-language package scripts
+
+- **WHEN** extract (Rust + TS) is inspected
+- **THEN** `build:ts` SHALL build only the TS pipeline, and `build` SHALL build both Rust and TS
+
+### Requirement: Binding to orchestration-architecture
+
+The dependency-derived build ordering, two-tier build strategy (`build:ts` vs `build:all`), and consistent per-package script naming defined in this spec are realized through the orchestrator binding designated by the `orchestration-architecture` capability. The current binding uses `bun run --filter './packages/*'` for topological dispatch. A future rebind to a different orchestrator (e.g., Vite+ via the `migrate-orchestrator-to-vp-run` follow-on policy change) SHALL preserve the dependency-derived-ordering invariant — adding a new package with appropriate `package.json` dependencies SHALL NOT require editing root orchestrator scripts or task definitions to position it correctly in the build graph.
+
+The two-tier strategy (a fast TS-only tier and a full Rust+TS tier) SHALL be preserved under any orchestrator binding. The Rust NAPI step in the full tier SHALL continue to invoke `cargo` / `napi build` per the Rust-pipeline exclusion in `orchestration-architecture`.
+
+#### Scenario: Dependency-derived ordering survives orchestrator rebind
+
+- **WHEN** a cutover follow-on rebinds the orchestrator
+- **AND** a new package is added with appropriate `dependencies` in its `package.json`
+- **AND** the orchestrator's full-build task is invoked
+- **THEN** the package builds in its correct topological position
+- **AND** no root orchestrator script or task config required edits
+
+#### Scenario: Two-tier strategy survives orchestrator rebind
+
+- **WHEN** a cutover follow-on rebinds the orchestrator
+- **THEN** a fast TS-only build tier exists that builds all TS library packages without invoking the Rust NAPI build
+- **AND** a full build tier exists that invokes the Rust NAPI build first, then the TS library build
+
+### Requirement: Cross-Workspace Dispatch via vp Task Graph
+
+Cross-workspace task dispatch (running a script across multiple workspace packages in dependency-derived order) SHALL be performed via the Vite+ task graph (`vp run` against tasks declared in `vite.config.ts`). The canonical dispatch surface for `build:ts`, `build:all`, and any other tier that fans out across multiple packages SHALL be `vp run <task>`. The `bun run --filter` invocation pattern SHALL continue to work for ad-hoc per-package dispatch by developers, but the canonical multi-package dispatch surface owned by this spec is now vp's task graph.
+
+The dependency-derived ordering invariant defined elsewhere in this spec is preserved verbatim — adding a new package to the workspace with appropriate `package.json` `dependencies` SHALL position it correctly in the build graph without requiring edits to `vite.config.ts` task definitions, provided vp's task graph derives ordering from workspace dependencies. If vp does NOT derive ordering automatically, `vite.config.ts` SHALL declare task dependencies explicitly to mirror the dependency-derived ordering invariant.
+
+The two-tier build strategy (fast TS-only `build:ts` / full Rust+TS `build:all`) is preserved verbatim. The Rust NAPI step in `build:all` SHALL continue to invoke `cargo` / `napi build` per the Rust-pipeline exclusion — vp dispatches the cargo-based command but does NOT replace the cargo toolchain.
+
+#### Scenario: vp run build:ts dispatches across workspace packages in dependency order
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run build:ts` at the repository root
+- **THEN** vp's task graph dispatches the `build:ts` task across every workspace package that declares one
+- **AND** packages build in dependency-derived order (B before A when A depends on B)
+- **AND** packages without a `build:ts` script are skipped without error
+
+#### Scenario: vp run build:all triggers Rust NAPI build first
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `vp run build:all` at the repository root
+- **THEN** the Rust NAPI build step (`cargo` / `napi build --platform --release`) runs first
+- **AND** TypeScript library packages build after, in dependency-derived order
+- **AND** vp does NOT attempt to compile Rust source itself
+
+#### Scenario: Adding a new package does not require vite.config.ts edits
+
+- **WHEN** a maintainer adds a new package to the workspace with appropriate `dependencies` in its `package.json`
+- **AND** the package declares a `build:ts` script
+- **AND** a developer runs `vp run build:ts`
+- **THEN** the new package builds in its correct topological position
+- **AND** no edit to `vite.config.ts` was required (vp's task graph derives the new package automatically OR the task definition is workspace-glob-shaped to include the new package)
+
+#### Scenario: bun run --filter remains available for ad-hoc per-package dispatch
+
+- **WHEN** a developer runs `bun run --filter '@animus-ui/system' build:ts`
+- **THEN** only the `packages/system` `build:ts` script executes
+- **AND** the invocation continues to work as before (Bun's workspace-resolution semantics unchanged)
+- **AND** this ad-hoc surface is for individual-package work, not cross-workspace orchestration

+# @animus-ui/assertions
+
+Shared, position-aware assertion utilities for post-build verification.
+
+## Surface
+
+```ts
+import {
+  assertLayerOrder,
+  assertNoPlaceholders,
+  assertClassNameFormat,
+  assertNoUnresolvedTokens,
+  assertNoEmotionImports,
+  findCssFiles,
+  findJsFiles,
+  readAsset,
+  readAllConcat,
+  AssertionError,
+} from '@animus-ui/assertions';
+```
+
+All assertion helpers throw `AssertionError` (with a `details` payload) on failure and return `void` on success. They are pure functions over strings — no I/O, no globals — except for the `find*Files` / `read*` helpers, which read the filesystem.
+
+## Why position-aware
+
+Shell `grep` checks string presence but cannot validate cascade order. The Lightning CSS cascade bug (`fix-lightningcss-cascade`) shipped through `grep`-based assertions because the layer markers were present — just in the wrong position. `assertLayerOrder` uses character-index comparison so misordered output fails fast.
+
+Default expected order:
+
+```
+@layer (declaration) → :root (variables) → @layer anm-global → @layer anm-base → @layer anm-variants
+```
+
+Pass a custom `layers` array to override.
+
+## Consumers
+
+- `e2e/next-app/scripts/assert-build.ts` — Next consumer fixture
+- `e2e/vite-app/scripts/assert-build.ts` — Vite consumer fixture
+- `scripts/assert-showcase-build.ts` — Showcase post-build assertions
+- `packages/_integration/__tests__/manifest-shape.test.ts` — manifest shape (re-exports may live here later)
+
+The one-way dependency rule (root `CLAUDE.md` § Workspace Topology) means `_assertions` must NOT import from `e2e/`. If a consumer needs to share types with `_assertions`, declare the type in `_assertions` and import it from the consumer — never the reverse.
+
+## Build pipeline
+
+Standard `tsdown && tsc -p tsconfig.build.json` (matches every other TS package). Picked up by `vp run build:ts` via the workspace filter. Consumers depend on the dist via `"@animus-ui/assertions": "workspace:*"`.
+
+Unit tests live at `__tests__/assert-css.test.ts` and run via `verify:unit:ts` (path added in change `integration-test-infrastructure`).

+# @animus-ui/integration — Pipeline Test Infrastructure
+
+Test workspace for full extraction pipeline E2E tests. Not a publishable package — exists solely to verify that serialize → NAPI → post-process produces correct CSS.
+
+## Convergence Axiom
+
+Canary tests (in `extract/tests/`) and integration tests share the same fixture source: `extract/tests/test-system.ts`. This ensures both tiers use identical theme, prop config, and group registry. If they diverge, the "edges-inward" coverage model breaks.
+
+Re-exported via `fixtures/setup.ts` → imports from `extract/tests/test-system.ts`.
+
+## Pipeline Helper
+
+`__tests__/run-pipeline.ts` mirrors the vite-plugin's `runAnalysis()` function:
+
+1. `analyzeProject()` — NAPI call with serialized config
+2. `resolveTransformPlaceholders()` — if CSS contains `__TRANSFORM__` markers
+3. `applyUnitFallback()` — append `px` to bare numerics on length properties
+
+Every integration test uses this helper. It IS the authoritative pipeline path minus file discovery and subprocesses.
+
+## NAPI Loading Contract
+
+All `require()` calls into the NAPI binary in `_integration` test files MUST use the **direct file path**:
+
+```ts
+const { analyzeProject } = require('../../extract/index.js');
+```
+
+`require('@animus-ui/extract')` (package resolution via `createRequire`) is forbidden in `_integration` tests.
+
+**Why:** Bun 1.3.12 shipped a `createRequire` polyfill regression (resolved in later bun releases, but the contract holds for resilience). When invoked from `_integration`, package resolution matched the `"types"` export condition first and loaded `index.d.ts` instead of `index.js`. All NAPI functions became `undefined` — tests passed locally on bun versions without the regression and failed silently on CI (session 69 incident).
+
+The direct-path pattern bypasses package resolution entirely, so it is immune to `createRequire` divergence between bun and Node.js.
+
+**ES imports from `@animus-ui/extract/pipeline` are permitted** — those resolve via the ES module loader, not `createRequire`, and are not subject to the same bug. Pattern in current tests:
+
+```ts
+import { resolveTransformPlaceholders } from '@animus-ui/extract/pipeline';
+const { analyzeProject } = require('../../extract/index.js');
+```
+
+CI enforces the contract via a grep check in the `lint` job (any `require('@animus-ui/extract')` in `packages/_integration/__tests__/` fails the build).
+
+## Token Invariant Guard
+
+`__tests__/assert-no-unresolved-tokens.ts` — derives color token names programmatically from `tokens.serialize().variableMapJson` and asserts they don't appear as raw values in extracted CSS. Every `runPipeline()` call must include this guard.
+
+Covers color tokens only. Scale tokens (font, space) resolve to literals not var() refs, so they're not detectable by this mechanism.
+
+## Test Files
+
+| File                      | What it tests                                                                             |
+| ------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `extraction.test.ts`      | Variant resolution, compound resolution, transforms, system props, responsive, multi-file |
+| `serialization.test.ts`   | Round-trip: serialize() → analyzeProject() → valid manifest                               |
+| `composition.test.ts`     | compose() through full pipeline, slot CSS, shared variants                                |
+| `post-processing.test.ts` | applyUnitFallback, resolveTokenAliases (parametrized)                                     |
+
+## Fixtures
+
+`fixtures/components/` contains real `.tsx` files using the builder chain API. They are parsed by OXC during extraction — not synthetic strings. Each exercises a specific extraction behavior (variants, compounds, composition, system props, transforms, layout).

+ *   - `_aliased` selector keys inside `.styles({...})` (e.g. `_focusVisible`)
+ *   - raw `'&:selector'` keys inside `.styles({...})`
+ *   - scale lookup of typed props inside aliased blocks

+ *
+ * Exercises the full 14-arg `analyzeProject` signature matching the production

+ * and `selectorOrderJson`, a coverage gap that let this regression class slip
+ * past integration.
+ *
+ * Confirmed-on-current-code bugs (2026-04-20):
+ *   Bug 1 — JSX scanner does NOT recognize `createElement(bareIdent, ...)` as
+ *           rendering. Reconciler eliminates as "not rendered and not a parent".
+ *           (Pattern E)
+ *   Bug 2 — Scale lookup via propConfig does NOT apply to pass-through CSS props
+ *           (e.g. `outlineColor`) inside nested selector-alias blocks. Registered
+ *           props (e.g. `color`) resolve correctly; unregistered pass-throughs
+ *           emit the raw scale key as a literal value.

-# Animus.ts Architecture Explanation
-
-## Core Concept
-
-Animus is a **type-state machine** that guides you through building styled components step-by-step. It uses TypeScript's type system to enforce that you configure your components in a specific order, making it impossible to make mistakes.
-
-## The Unique Architecture
-
-The most interesting aspect is the **backwards inheritance chain**:
-
-```
-Animus → AnimusWithBase → AnimusWithVariants → AnimusWithStates → AnimusWithSystem → AnimusWithAll
-```
-
-Each class extends the one *after* it in the chain, which seems backwards but is actually brilliant. Here's why:
-
-- `Animus` (the starting point) inherits from `AnimusWithBase`
-- `AnimusWithBase` inherits from `AnimusWithVariants`
-- And so on...
-
-This means the first class has access to all the methods defined in later classes, but those methods only become *available* to use when you reach the right stage.
-
-## How It Works - Step by Step
-
-### 1. Starting Point: `Animus` (lines 331-349)
-```typescript
-const builder = new Animus(propRegistry, groupRegistry);
-```
-- Takes your prop definitions and group configurations
-- Only exposes the `.styles()` method
-- Creates a parser for your props automatically
-
-### 2. After calling `.styles()`: `AnimusWithBase` (lines 287-329)
-```typescript
-builder.styles({ padding: '20px', color: 'blue' })
-```
-- Now you can call `.variant()` to add design variations
-- The base styles are locked in
-
-### 3. After calling `.variant()`: `AnimusWithVariants` (lines 226-285)
-```typescript
-.variant({
-  prop: 'size',
-  variants: {
-    small: { fontSize: '14px' },
-    large: { fontSize: '20px' }
-  }
-})
-```
-- Can add multiple variants
-- Now `.states()` method becomes available
-
-### 4. After calling `.states()`: `AnimusWithStates` (lines 184-224)
-```typescript
-.states({
-  disabled: { opacity: 0.5, cursor: 'not-allowed' },
-  loading: { cursor: 'wait' }
-})
-```
-- Defines boolean states (props that are true/false)
-- Unlocks `.groups()` method
-
-### 5. After calling `.groups()`: `AnimusWithSystem` (lines 140-182)
-```typescript
-.groups({ spacing: true, colors: true })
-```
-- Enables predefined groups of props
-- Now you can add custom props with `.props()`
-
-### 6. Final Stage: `AnimusWithAll` (lines 24-138)
-This is where the magic happens. You can now:
-
-- `.asElement('button')` - Create a styled HTML element
-- `.asComponent(MyComponent)` - Style an existing React component  
-- `.build()` - Get the raw styling function
-- `.extend()` - Create variations of your styled component
-
-## Key Features
-
-### Type Safety Throughout
-The 8 generic parameters track everything:
-- `PropRegistry` - All your prop definitions
-- `GroupRegistry` - Prop groupings
-- `BaseParser` - How props convert to CSS
-- `BaseStyles` - Your base CSS
-- `Variants` - Design variations
-- `States` - Boolean state styles
-- `ActiveGroups` - Which groups are enabled
-- `CustomProps` - Additional custom props
-
-### Smart Prop Forwarding (lines 76-87)
-```typescript
-shouldForwardProp: (prop) => 
-  isPropValid(prop) && !propNames.includes(prop)
-```
-- System props (like `spacing`, `colors`) are consumed and turned into styles
-- Valid HTML attributes are passed through
-- Invalid props are filtered out
-
-### The Build Process (lines 99-137)
-When you call `.build()`, it:
-1. Merges your parser config with custom props
-2. Creates a stylist that combines all your configurations
-3. Returns a function that generates CSS objects
-4. Handles variants, states, and system props automatically
-
-### Extension System
-The `.extend()` method creates an `AnimusExtended` instance that can break the rules - you can modify any part of the configuration in any order. This provides an escape hatch when needed.
-
-## Why This Design?
-
-1. **Impossible to Misuse** - You can't call methods in the wrong order
-2. **Perfect IntelliSense** - Your IDE knows exactly what methods are available at each step
-3. **Type Safe** - All configurations are fully typed
-4. **Flexible When Needed** - The extend system provides flexibility
-5. **Clean API** - The forced order mirrors how we think about styling (base → variants → states → props)
-
-## Example Usage
-
-```typescript
-const Button = animus
-  .styles({ 
-    padding: '10px 20px',
-    borderRadius: '4px' 
-  })
-  .variant({
-    prop: 'variant',
-    variants: {
-      primary: { background: 'blue', color: 'white' },
-      secondary: { background: 'gray', color: 'black' }
-    }
-  })
-  .states({
-    disabled: { opacity: 0.6 }
-  })
-  .asElement('button');
-
-// Usage:
-<Button variant="primary" disabled>Click me</Button>
-```
-
-## The Backwards Inheritance Explained
-
-The backwards inheritance pattern is the key innovation. Instead of:
-- Base class with few methods → Derived class with more methods (traditional OOP)
-
-Animus does:
-- Starting class that inherits everything → But methods are selectively exposed
-
-This creates a "progressive revelation" pattern where:
-1. You start with minimal options (just `.styles()`)
-2. Each method call returns a new class instance
-3. That new instance exposes the next logical methods
-4. Invalid sequences are impossible at the type level
-
-## Integration with Emotion
-
-Animus builds on top of Emotion (a CSS-in-JS library):
-- Uses `@emotion/styled` to create the actual styled components
-- Uses `@emotion/is-prop-valid` to filter props intelligently
-- The final output is a standard Emotion styled component
-- Full compatibility with themes, SSR, and other Emotion features
-
-## Performance Considerations
-
-- All type checking happens at compile time - zero runtime overhead
-- The inheritance chain is resolved during build
-- Final components are standard Emotion components
-- Parser and stylist are created once and reused
-
-## Summary
-
-This architecture ensures that every styled component is configured correctly, with all the power of CSS-in-JS but none of the footguns! The type-state machine pattern combined with backwards inheritance creates a unique developer experience where the API guides you to success.

-## Quick Philosophy Reminder for AI Agents
-
-**This is optimal for us because:**
-- Method order = semantic intent (styles=base, variants=choices, states=interactions, props=dynamics)
-- Constraints guide us to correct patterns, not limit capabilities
-- `extend()` provides full flexibility when needed
-- One canonical path eliminates ambiguity
-
-**Key Insight**: We're not limited in WHAT we can style, only guided in HOW we express styling intent. This transforms CSS from an open-ended problem to a solvable pattern-matching exercise.
-
-## Architecture Overview
-
-The Animus builder implements a sophisticated type-safe fluent API pattern using TypeScript's class inheritance and type narrowing. The architecture enforces a specific method call order to mirror CSS cascade principles.
-
-## Builder Chain Architecture
-
-### Class Hierarchy
-```
-AnimusConfig → Animus → AnimusWithBase → AnimusWithVariants → AnimusWithStates → AnimusWithSystem → AnimusWithAll
-```
-
-Each class progressively narrows available methods:
-- **AnimusConfig**: Entry point with `addGroup()` and `build()`
-- **Animus**: Adds `styles()` method
-- **AnimusWithBase**: Adds `variant()` method
-- **AnimusWithVariants**: Adds `states()` and `variant()` methods
-- **AnimusWithStates**: Adds `groups()` method
-- **AnimusWithSystem**: Adds `props()` method
-- **AnimusWithAll**: Terminal class with `asElement()`, `asComponent()`, `build()`, and `extend()`
-
-### Method Chain Enforcement
-
-The builder enforces this cascade order:
-1. `.styles()` - Base styles (foundation layer)
-2. `.variant()` - Variant-based styles (can be called multiple times)
-3. `.states()` - Boolean state styles
-4. `.groups()` - Enable prop groups
-5. `.props()` - Custom props with scales
-6. `.asElement()` or `.asComponent()` - Terminal methods
-
-This order mirrors CSS cascade specificity where later rules override earlier ones.
-
-### Extension Pattern
-
-The `extend()` method is special - it returns an `AnimusExtended` instance that:
-- Preserves all configuration from the parent
-- Allows any builder method to be called in any order
-- Merges configurations using lodash `merge()` to combine nested objects
-- Maintains proper style execution order despite flexible API
-
-## Key Components
-
-### AnimusConfig (Entry Point)
-Located in `AnimusConfig.ts`:
-- Manages prop registry and group definitions
-- `addGroup()`: Registers named groups of props
-- `build()`: Creates the initial Animus instance
-
-### Animus Classes (Builder Chain)
-Located in `Animus.ts`:
-- Each class extends the previous, adding specific methods
-- Uses TypeScript generics to track configuration state
-- Methods return new instances of the next class in chain
-
-### AnimusExtended (Extension Handler)
-Located in `AnimusExtended.ts`:
-- Handles component extension with full method access
-- Merges parent and child configurations
-- Preserves cascade order during style execution
-
-### Style Processing
-
-#### createStylist (Style Compiler)
-Located in `styles/createStylist.ts`:
-- Compiles all style layers into a single function
-- Handles selector generation for variants and states
-- Manages responsive breakpoint extraction
-- Applies styles in correct cascade order:
-  1. Base styles
-  2. Variant styles (when active)
-  3. State styles (when active)
-  4. System props (from parser)
-  5. Custom props
-
-#### createParser (Prop Parser)
-Located in `styles/createParser.ts`:
-- Converts prop values to CSS using scale lookups
-- Handles responsive prop arrays
-- Manages prop-to-CSS property mapping
-
-## Type System
-
-The builder uses extensive TypeScript generics to track:
-- **PropRegistry**: All registered props and their types
-- **GroupRegistry**: Named groups and their constituent props
-- **BaseParser**: Parser configuration for system props
-- **BaseStyles**: Base CSS styles
-- **Variants**: Variant configurations with their options
-- **States**: Boolean state configurations
-- **ActiveGroups**: Currently enabled prop groups
-- **CustomProps**: User-defined custom props
-
-## Style Execution Order
-
-When a component renders, styles are applied in this order:
-1. CSS variables (from `vars` prop)
-2. Base styles from `.styles()`
-3. Active variant styles
-4. Active state styles
-5. System props (parsed from component props)
-6. Inline style overrides
-
-## Prop Forwarding
-
-The builder automatically filters props:
-- System props (in PropRegistry) are consumed and not forwarded
-- Valid HTML attributes are forwarded (using @emotion/is-prop-valid)
-- Custom props are consumed based on configuration
-
-## Best Practices
-
-1. **Define base styles first** - Use `.styles()` for foundational styles
-2. **Use variants for design options** - Color schemes, sizes, etc.
-3. **Use states for interactive states** - Hover, focus, disabled, etc.
-4. **Group related props** - Use `.groups()` to enable sets of props
-5. **Extend for variations** - Use `.extend()` to create component variants
-
-## Common Patterns
-
-### Basic Component
-```typescript
-const Button = animus
-  .styles({
-    padding: '8px 16px',
-    borderRadius: '4px'
-  })
-  .asElement('button');
-```
-
-### Component with Variants
-```typescript
-const Button = animus
-  .styles({ base: '...' })
-  .variant({
-    prop: 'size',
-    variants: {
-      small: { padding: '4px 8px' },
-      large: { padding: '12px 24px' }
-    }
-  })
-  .asElement('button');
-```
-
-### Extended Component
-```typescript
-const PrimaryButton = Button.extend()
-  .styles({
-    backgroundColor: 'blue',
-    color: 'white'
-  })
-  .asElement('button');
-```
-
-## Debugging Tips
-
-1. **Check method order** - Ensure builder methods are called in correct sequence
-2. **Inspect built styles** - Use `.build()` to see the compiled style function
-3. **Verify prop filtering** - Check `shouldForwardProp` logic
-4. **Trace style cascade** - Follow execution through createStylist
-5. **Type errors** - Usually indicate incorrect method order or invalid configurations
-
-## New Insights from Real-World Usage
-
-Based on analyzing actual implementations across the codebase:
-
-### 1. Gradient Token System
-The codebase uses semantic gradient tokens like `gradient: 'flowX'` that map to complex gradient definitions. This suggests a sophisticated token system beyond simple color values.
-
-### 2. Grid Area Shorthand
-Components use `area: 'sidebar'` as shorthand for `gridArea: 'sidebar'`, indicating custom CSS property mappings in the prop system.
-
-### 3. Layered Component Architecture
-Complex components like Button separate visual layers (container vs foreground) rather than combining all styles in one component. This pattern enables:
-- Independent animation of layers
-- Better performance (transforms on specific layers)
-- Cleaner separation of concerns
-
-### 4. Responsive Grid Templates
-The Layout component shows responsive grid template areas:
-```tsx
-gridTemplateAreas: {
-  _: '"header header" "content content"',
-  sm: '"header header" "sidebar content"',
-}
-```
-
-### 5. CSS Custom Scrollbar Hiding
-Components use webkit-specific scrollbar hiding:
-```tsx
-'::-webkit-scrollbar': {
-  display: 'none',
-}
-```
-
-### 6. Position-Based Responsive Patterns
-Components change positioning strategy based on viewport:
-```tsx
-position: {
-  _: 'absolute',
-  sm: 'static',
-}
-```
-
-### 7. Size Shorthands
-The codebase uses numeric shorthands like `width: 1` (likely 100%), `size: 1`, `inset: 0`, suggesting a normalized prop value system.
-
-## Open Questions from Analysis
-
-1. **Gradient Token Architecture**: How are gradient tokens like 'flowX' defined and resolved? Are they CSS variables or JS objects?
-
-2. **Numeric Value System**: What's the complete mapping for numeric values (0, 1, 0.5)? How do they translate to CSS?
-
-3. **Custom Prop Mappings**: Beyond 'area' for 'gridArea', what other CSS property shorthands exist?
-
-4. **Animation Integration**: How does the `import { flow } from '../animations/flow'` pattern work with Emotion keyframes?
-
-5. **Theme Token Categories**: What are all the semantic token categories (text-shadow: 'flush', 'link-raised')?
-
-6. **Performance of Pseudo-Elements**: Given heavy use of :before/:after for effects, are there performance benchmarks?
-
-7. **TypeScript Compound Pattern**: Is the Layout compound component TypeScript pattern the recommended approach?
-
-8. **Group Selection Strategy**: What determines which groups to enable for each component type?
-
-9. **Variant vs State Decision**: When should something be a variant vs a state? The pattern isn't always clear.
-
-10. **Build Tool Integration**: How do production builds optimize these complex styled components?
-
-## Practical Patterns & Examples
-
-This section provides answers to common implementation questions for AI agents.
-
-### Responsive Design
-*Documentation coming soon - how arrays work, breakpoint system*
-Array responsive syntax works for specificing values mobile first, from no breakpoint to the highest breakpoint configured in the theme.  Omitted sequential values in the array are ignored (only if undefined).
-
-The object syntax is equivalent but uses named keys for the sequence.  Please see the example:
-
-```tsx
-// Object syntax
-animus.styles({ width: { _: '100px', xs: '200px', md: '300px' }})
-// Equivalent Array Syntax
-animus.styles({ width: ['100px', '200px', , '300px' ]});
-```
-
-Responsive syntax is available definitionally in `.styles()`, `.variant()` and `.states()` for example:
-```tsx
-animus
-  .variant({
-    prop: 'size',
-    variants: {
-      large: { padding: ['1rem', '2rem'] } // Is this valid?
-    }
-  })
-```
-
-And for `groups()` and custom `props()` they are available in the final prop API as valid syntax E.G:
-
-```tsx
-const Box = animus.groups({ space: true }).asElement('div');
-
-<Box p={['1rem', '2rem', '3rem']} />
-```
-
-### Theming Integration
-
-The Animus builder integrates seamlessly with themes provided via Emotion's ThemeProvider. When using ThemeBuilder from `@animus-ui/theming`, the integration works as follows:
-
-#### Theme Value Resolution
-
-Props can reference theme scales using the `scale` property in prop definitions:
-
-```typescript
-animus
-  .props({
-    bg: {
-      property: 'backgroundColor',
-      scale: 'colors' // References theme.colors scale
-    }
-  })
-  .asElement('div');
-
-// Usage: <Box bg="primary" /> resolves to theme.colors.primary
-```
-
-#### Design Token Flow
-
-1. **ThemeBuilder creates CSS variables**:
-   ```typescript
-   const theme = createTheme(baseTheme)
-     .addColors({ primary: '#007bff' })
-     .build();
-   // Creates: theme.colors.primary = 'var(--colors-primary)'
-   ```
-
-2. **Animus resolves theme values**:
-   ```typescript
-   // When bg="primary" is used:
-   // lookupScaleValue('primary', 'colors', theme) → 'var(--colors-primary)'
-   ```
-
-3. **CSS variables must be injected**:
-   ```typescript
-   import { Global } from '@emotion/react';
-
-   const GlobalStyles = () => {
-     const theme = useTheme();
-     return (
-       <Global styles={{
-         ':root': theme._variables.root
-       }} />
-     );
-   };
-   ```
-
-#### Type Safety with Themes
-
-For proper TypeScript support, extend Emotion's theme interface:
-
-```typescript
-declare module '@emotion/react' {
-  export interface Theme extends MyThemeType {}
-}
-```
-
-#### Theme Scales Available
-
-Common scales that work with Animus props:
-- `colors` - Color values
-- `space` - Spacing/margin/padding values
-- `fontSizes` - Typography sizes
-- `fonts` - Font families
-- `lineHeights` - Line height values
-- `letterSpacings` - Letter spacing values
-- `sizes` - Width/height values
-- `borders` - Border styles
-- `borderWidths` - Border width values
-- `borderStyles` - Border style values
-- `radii` - Border radius values
-- `shadows` - Box shadow values
-- `zIndices` - Z-index values
-- `transitions` - Transition values
-
-### Complex Selectors
-*Documentation coming soon - pseudo-selectors, nested selectors placement*
-Pseudo selectors and nested selectors are available for `.styles()`, `.variant()` and `.states()` as they all represent a set of CSS rules rather than indivdiual utilities.
-
-```tsx
-const HoverableItem = animus
-  .styles({
-    backgroundColor: 'white',
-    '&:hover': {
-      backgroundColor: 'grey',
-    }
-  })
-  .variant({
-     prop: 'intent',
-     variants: {
-      primary: {
-        backgroundColor: 'blue',
-        color: 'white',
-         '&:hover': {
-            backgroundColor: 'darkblue',
-          }
-      },
-      danger: {
-        backgroundColor: 'red',
-        color: 'white',
-         '&:hover': {
-            backgroundColor: 'darkred',
-          }
-      },
-     }
-  })
-  .states({
-    disabled: {
-      backgroundColor: 'grey',
-      opacity: 0.8,
-      '&:hover': {
-        cursor: 'not-allowed',
-        backgroundColor: 'grey',
-      }
-    }
-  })
-```
-
-This also applies to complex or multiple selectors and or pseudo elements like - however may not include escaping the current context with `.parent + &`:
-```tsx
-const ComplexThing = animus
-   .styles({
-      '&:before': {
-          content: '""',
-          position: 'absolute',
-          borderRadius: 4,
-          gradient: 'flowX',
-          backgroundSize: '300px 100px',
-          backgroundPosition: '0px 0%',
-          transition: 'bg',
-          inset: 0,
-          bg: 'background-current',
-          zIndex: 0,
-        },
-        '&:after': {
-          content: '""',
-          inset: 2,
-          borderRadius: 2,
-          bg: 'background-current',
-          zIndex: 0,
-          position: 'absolute',
-        },
-        '&:hover:before': {
-          backgroundPosition: '-100px 0%',
-        },
-        '&:active:hover:before': {
-          backgroundPosition: '-400px 0%',
-        },
-   });
-```
-
-Chain definition order reflects the order of evaluation:
-1. `styles`
-2. `variant` preserving the order in which variants are registered if this is called multiple times.
-3. `states`
-4. `groups`
-5. `props`
-
-When extending a component using `.extend()` you can inject new styles to specific layers without effecting the prop cascade!
-
-
-
-### Animation Patterns
-
-Animations in Animus follow the same cascade principles as other styles. Here's where each type of animation belongs:
-
-#### Base Animations (in `.styles()`)
-
-For animations that are fundamental to the component:
-
-```typescript
-const FadeIn = animus
-  .styles({
-    animation: 'fadeIn 0.3s ease-in-out',
-    '@keyframes fadeIn': {
-      from: { opacity: 0 },
-      to: { opacity: 1 }
-    }
-  })
-  .asElement('div');
-```
-
-#### Variant-Based Animations (in `.variant()`)
-
-For animations that change based on component variations:
-
-```typescript
-const Alert = animus
-  .styles({
-    padding: '1rem',
-    borderRadius: '4px'
-  })
-  .variant({
-    prop: 'type',
-    variants: {
-      success: {
-        backgroundColor: 'green.100',
-        animation: 'slideInLeft 0.3s ease-out'
-      },
-      error: {
-        backgroundColor: 'red.100',
-        animation: 'shake 0.5s ease-in-out'
-      }
-    }
-  })
-  .asElement('div');
-```
-
-#### State-Based Animations (in `.states()`)
-
-For animations triggered by interactive states:
-
-```typescript
-const Button = animus
-  .styles({
-    transition: 'all 0.2s ease'
-  })
-  .states({
-    loading: {
-      position: 'relative',
-      color: 'transparent',
-      '&::after': {
-        content: '""',
-        position: 'absolute',
-        width: '16px',
-        height: '16px',
-        top: '50%',
-        left: '50%',
-        margin: '-8px 0 0 -8px',
-        border: '2px solid',
-        borderColor: 'currentColor',
-        borderRadius: '50%',
-        borderTopColor: 'transparent',
-        animation: 'spin 0.6s linear infinite'
-      }
-    }
-  })
-  .asElement('button');
-```
-
-#### CSS Transition Integration
-
-For smooth property transitions, define them in base styles:
-
-```typescript
-const Card = animus
-  .styles({
-    backgroundColor: 'white',
-    transform: 'translateY(0)',
-    transition: 'transform 0.2s ease, box-shadow 0.2s ease',
-    '&:hover': {
-      transform: 'translateY(-4px)',
-      boxShadow: 'lg'
-    }
-  })
-  .asElement('div');
-```
-
-#### Complex Animation Sequences
-
-For multi-step animations, use keyframes in the appropriate layer:
-
-```typescript
-const LoadingDots = animus
-  .styles({
-    display: 'inline-flex',
-    gap: '4px',
-    '& span': {
-      width: '8px',
-      height: '8px',
-      borderRadius: '50%',
-      backgroundColor: 'currentColor',
-      animation: 'bounce 1.4s ease-in-out infinite both'
-    },
-    '& span:nth-of-type(1)': {
-      animationDelay: '-0.32s'
-    },
-    '& span:nth-of-type(2)': {
-      animationDelay: '-0.16s'
-    },
-    '@keyframes bounce': {
-      '0%, 80%, 100%': {
-        transform: 'scale(0)'
-      },
-      '40%': {
-        transform: 'scale(1)'
-      }
-    }
-  })
-  .asElement('div');
-```
-
-#### Animation Best Practices
-
-1. **Performance**: Use `transform` and `opacity` for best performance
-2. **Accessibility**: Respect `prefers-reduced-motion`:
-   ```typescript
-   .styles({
-     '@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce)': {
-       animation: 'none',
-       transition: 'none'
-     }
-   })
-   ```
-3. **Duration**: Keep animations short (200-400ms for micro-interactions)
-4. **Easing**: Use appropriate easing functions:
-   - `ease-out` for enter animations
-   - `ease-in` for exit animations
-   - `ease-in-out` for state changes
-
-### Compound Components
-
-Compound components are a powerful pattern for creating related components that work together. Here's the recommended approach based on real-world usage:
-
-#### Basic Pattern
-
-```tsx
-const Card = animus
-  .styles({
-    padding: '1rem',
-    backgroundColor: 'grey',
-    border: 1,
-  })
-  .asElement('div');
-
-const CardHeader = animus
-  .styles({
-    fontSize: 18,
-    fontWeight: 500
-  })
-  .asElement('h2');
-
-const CardBody = animus
-   .styles({
-      padding: '1rem',
-      fontSize: 14,
-   })
-   .asElement('div');
-
-Card.Header = CardHeader;
-Card.Body = CardBody;
-
-export default Card;
-```
-
-#### Advanced Pattern with TypeScript (from Layout.tsx)
-
-```tsx
-// Define individual components
-const LayoutContainer = animus
-  .styles({
-    display: 'grid',
-    gridTemplateAreas: '"header header" "sidebar content"',
-  })
-  .states({
-    sidebar: {
-      gridTemplateAreas: {
-        _: '"header header" "content content"',
-        sm: '"header header" "sidebar content"',
-      }
-    }
-  })
-  .asElement('div');
-
-const HeaderContainer = animus
-  .styles({ area: 'header' })
-  .asElement('div');
-
-const SidebarContainer = animus
-  .styles({ area: 'sidebar' })
-  .asElement('div');
-
-// Create compound type
-type LayoutContainer = typeof LayoutContainer;
-
-export interface Layout extends LayoutContainer {
-  Header: typeof HeaderContainer;
-  Sidebar: typeof SidebarContainer;
-}
-
-// Export with sub-components attached
-export const Layout = LayoutContainer as Layout;
-Layout.Header = HeaderContainer;
-Layout.Sidebar = SidebarContainer;
-
-// Usage
-<Layout sidebar>
-  <Layout.Header>...</Layout.Header>
-  <Layout.Sidebar>...</Layout.Sidebar>
-</Layout>
-```
-
-This pattern provides:
-- Type-safe compound components
-- Clear parent-child relationships
-- Cohesive API for related components
-
-### Global Styles & Resets
-*Documentation coming soon - app-wide styles approach*
-
-### Performance Considerations
-
-Based on real-world usage patterns, here are key performance optimizations:
-
-#### 1. Avoid Excessive Pseudo-Elements
-
-While powerful, overuse of `:before` and `:after` can impact performance:
-
-```tsx
-// ❌ Avoid: Multiple layers of pseudo-elements
-.styles({
-  '&:before': { /* gradient layer */ },
-  '&:after': { /* shadow layer */ },
-  '& > div:before': { /* more effects */ },
-  '& > div:after': { /* even more */ }
-})
-
-// ✅ Better: Use actual elements when needed
-const Container = animus.styles({...}).asElement('div');
-const GradientLayer = animus.styles({...}).asElement('div');
-const ContentLayer = animus.styles({...}).asElement('div');
-```
-
-#### 2. Optimize Gradient Animations
-
-Gradient animations can be expensive. Use transform instead:
-
-```tsx
-// ❌ Avoid: Animating background-position continuously
-.styles({
-  animation: 'flow 5s linear infinite',
-  '@keyframes flow': {
-    '0%': { backgroundPosition: '0% 0%' },
-    '100%': { backgroundPosition: '100% 0%' }
-  }
-})
-
-// ✅ Better: Use transform for smoother performance
-.styles({
-  '&:before': {
-    content: '""',
-    position: 'absolute',
-    inset: 0,
-    background: 'gradient',
-    transform: 'translateX(0)',
-    transition: 'transform 0.3s ease',
-  },
-  '&:hover:before': {
-    transform: 'translateX(-100px)',
-  }
-})
-```
-
-#### 3. Group-Based Code Splitting
-
-Enable only the groups you need to reduce bundle size:
-
-```tsx
-// ❌ Avoid: Enabling all groups
-.groups({
-  layout: true,
-  space: true,
-  color: true,
-  typography: true,
-  borders: true,
-  shadows: true,
-  positioning: true,
-  background: true,
-  flex: true,
-  grid: true
-})
-
-// ✅ Better: Enable only what's needed
-.groups({
-  layout: true,
-  space: true,
-  color: true
-})
-```
-
-#### 4. Responsive Value Optimization
-
-Use responsive values judiciously:
-
-```tsx
-// ❌ Avoid: Responsive values for every property
-.styles({
-  padding: { _: 8, xs: 12, sm: 16, md: 20, lg: 24, xl: 32 },
-  margin: { _: 4, xs: 6, sm: 8, md: 10, lg: 12, xl: 16 },
-  fontSize: { _: 14, xs: 15, sm: 16, md: 17, lg: 18, xl: 20 },
-})
-
-// ✅ Better: Use responsive values for key breakpoints
-.styles({
-  padding: { _: 8, sm: 16, lg: 24 },
-  margin: 8,
-  fontSize: { _: 14, sm: 16 }
-})
-```
-
-#### 5. Component Composition vs. Complex Styles
-
-Break complex components into simpler pieces:
-
-```tsx
-// ❌ Avoid: One component with many variants and states
-const Button = animus
-  .styles({ /* 50+ lines of base styles */ })
-  .variant({ /* 10 variants */ })
-  .states({ /* 8 states */ })
-  .asElement('button');
-
-// ✅ Better: Compose from simpler components
-const BaseButton = animus.styles({...}).asElement('button');
-const IconButton = BaseButton.extend().styles({...}).asElement('button');
-const LoadingButton = BaseButton.extend().states({...}).asElement('button');
-```
-
-#### 6. Memoize Complex Components
-
-For components with expensive render logic:
-
-```tsx
-import { memo } from 'react';
-
-const ExpensiveComponent = memo(
-  animus
-    .styles({ /* complex styles */ })
-    .asComponent(({ children, ...props }) => {
-      // Complex render logic
-      return <div {...props}>{children}</div>;
-    })
-);
-```
-
-#### 7. CSS Variable Performance
-
-When using ThemeBuilder, minimize CSS variable lookups:
-
-```tsx
-// ❌ Avoid: Many individual variable references
-.styles({
-  color: 'var(--colors-text)',
-  backgroundColor: 'var(--colors-background)',
-  borderColor: 'var(--colors-border)',
-  // ... many more
-})
-
-// ✅ Better: Use semantic tokens that group related values
-.styles({
-  color: 'text',
-  bg: 'background',
-  borderColor: 'border',
-})
-```
-
-#### 8. Build-Time Optimizations
-
-- Use production builds to eliminate development warnings
-- Enable CSS extraction in your bundler when possible
-- Consider using `babel-plugin-emotion` for build-time optimizations
-- Tree-shake unused Animus groups and features
-
-#### Key Metrics to Monitor
-
-1. **Bundle Size**: Track the size of your styled components
-2. **Runtime Performance**: Monitor style recalculation in DevTools
-3. **Memory Usage**: Watch for memory leaks from dynamic styles
-4. **Initial Load**: Measure time to first meaningful paint

-### Common UI Patterns
-
-Based on real-world usage analysis, here are common patterns for building UI components with Animus:
-
-#### Layered Visual Effects (Button Pattern)
-
-Create rich visual effects by separating container and content:
-
-```tsx
-// Container handles background effects
-const ButtonContainer = animus
-  .styles({
-    position: 'relative',
-    overflow: 'hidden',
-  })
-  .variant({
-    prop: 'variant',
-    variants: {
-      fill: {
-        '&:before': {
-          content: '""',
-          position: 'absolute',
-          inset: 0,
-          gradient: 'flowX',
-          backgroundSize: '300px 100%',
-          transition: 'background-position 0.3s ease',
-        },
-        '&:hover:before': {
-          backgroundPosition: '-100px 0%',
-        }
-      },
-      stroke: {
-        '&:before': {
-          content: '""',
-          position: 'absolute',
-          inset: 0,
-          gradient: 'flowX',
-          zIndex: 0,
-        },
-        '&:after': {
-          content: '""',
-          position: 'absolute',
-          inset: 2,
-          bg: 'background-current',
-          zIndex: 0,
-        }
-      }
-    }
-  })
-  .asElement('button');
-
-// Foreground handles text/content
-const ButtonForeground = animus
-  .styles({
-    position: 'relative',
-    zIndex: 1,
-  })
-  .variant({
-    prop: 'size',
-    variants: {
-      sm: { px: 12, py: 6, fontSize: 14 },
-      md: { px: 16, py: 8, fontSize: 16 },
-      lg: { px: 20, py: 10, fontSize: 18 }
-    }
-  })
-  .asElement('span');
-```
-
-#### Grid Layout with Named Areas
-
-Use CSS Grid with named template areas for complex layouts:
-
-```tsx
-const Layout = animus
-  .styles({
-    display: 'grid',
-    gridTemplateAreas: '"header header" "sidebar content"',
-    gridTemplateColumns: '15rem 1fr',
-    gridTemplateRows: 'auto 1fr',
-  })
-  .states({
-    collapsed: {
-      gridTemplateAreas: '"header" "content"',
-      gridTemplateColumns: '1fr',
-    }
-  })
-  .asElement('div');
-
-// Child components reference grid areas
-const Sidebar = animus
-  .styles({
-    gridArea: 'sidebar',
-    // or using Animus shorthand:
-    area: 'sidebar'
-  })
-  .asElement('aside');
-```
-
-#### Gradient Text Effects
-
-Create gradient text using background clip:
-
-```tsx
-const GradientText = animus
-  .styles({
-    gradient: 'primary',
-    backgroundClip: 'text',
-    WebkitBackgroundClip: 'text',
-    WebkitTextFillColor: 'transparent',
-  })
-  .asElement('span');
-```
-
-#### Responsive Sticky Positioning
-
-Combine responsive values with position states:
-
-```tsx
-const Navigation = animus
-  .styles({
-    position: {
-      _: 'fixed',
-      sm: 'sticky'
-    },
-    top: 0,
-    zIndex: 10,
-  })
-  .asElement('nav');
-```
-
-#### State-Based Component Switching
-
-Use states for component behavior changes:
-
-```tsx
-const Modal = animus
-  .styles({
-    position: 'fixed',
-    inset: 0,
-    display: 'flex',
-    alignItems: 'center',
-    justifyContent: 'center',
-    opacity: 0,
-    pointerEvents: 'none',
-    transition: 'opacity 0.2s ease',
-  })
-  .states({
-    open: {
-      opacity: 1,
-      pointerEvents: 'auto',
-    }
-  })
-  .asElement('div');
-```
-
-#### Polymorphic Components
-
-Use variants with 'as' prop for semantic flexibility:
-
-```tsx
-const Text = animus
-  .variant({
-    prop: 'as',
-    variants: {
-      h1: { fontSize: 32, lineHeight: 1.2, fontWeight: 700 },
-      h2: { fontSize: 24, lineHeight: 1.3, fontWeight: 600 },
-      p: { fontSize: 16, lineHeight: 1.5, fontWeight: 400 },
-      small: { fontSize: 14, lineHeight: 1.4, fontWeight: 400 },
-    }
-  })
-  .asElement('p');
-
-// Usage: <Text as="h1">Heading</Text>
-```
-
-#### Minimal Wrapper Pattern
-
-Sometimes it's better to wrap existing components than create new ones:
-
-```tsx
-export const Code = (props: ComponentProps<typeof Box>) => (
-  <Box
-    as="code"
-    color="primary"
-    fontFamily="mono"
-    fontSize={14}
-    {...props}
-  />
-);
-```
-
-### Design System Integration
-
-#### Token Integration with ThemeBuilder
-
-When building a design system with Animus and ThemeBuilder, follow this pattern:
-
-1. **Define Design Tokens**:
-   ```typescript
-   // tokens.ts
-   export const tokens = {
-     colors: {
-       brand: {
-         primary: '#007bff',
-         secondary: '#6c757d'
-       },
-       semantic: {
-         success: '#28a745',
-         danger: '#dc3545'
-       }
-     },
-     space: {
-       xs: '0.25rem',
-       sm: '0.5rem',
-       md: '1rem',
-       lg: '2rem',
-       xl: '4rem'
-     }
-   };
-   ```
-
-2. **Build Theme with CSS Variables**:
-   ```typescript
-   // theme.ts
-   import { createTheme } from '@animus-ui/theming';
-
-   export const theme = createTheme(baseTheme)
-     .addColors(tokens.colors)
-     .createScaleVariables('space')
-     .addColorModes('light', {
-       light: {
-         bg: 'white',
-         text: 'brand.primary'
-       },
-       dark: {
-         bg: 'brand.primary',
-         text: 'white'
-       }
-     })
-     .build();
-   ```
-
-3. **Create Design System Components**:
-   ```typescript
-   // Button.ts
-   export const Button = animus
-     .styles({
-       cursor: 'pointer',
-       fontFamily: 'body',
-       transition: 'all 0.2s'
-     })
-     .variant({
-       prop: 'variant',
-       variants: {
-         primary: {
-           bg: 'brand.primary',
-           color: 'white',
-           '&:hover': {
-             bg: 'brand.secondary'
-           }
-         },
-         outline: {
-           bg: 'transparent',
-           borderWidth: '2px',
-           borderStyle: 'solid',
-           borderColor: 'brand.primary',
-           color: 'brand.primary'
-         }
-       }
-     })
-     .variant({
-       prop: 'size',
-       variants: {
-         sm: { px: 'sm', py: 'xs', fontSize: 'sm' },
-         md: { px: 'md', py: 'sm', fontSize: 'base' },
-         lg: { px: 'lg', py: 'md', fontSize: 'lg' }
-       }
-     })
-     .states({
-       disabled: {
-         opacity: 0.6,
-         cursor: 'not-allowed'
-       }
-     })
-     .groups({ space: true })
-     .asElement('button');
-   ```
-
-#### Migration Patterns
-
-##### From CSS/SCSS to Animus
-
-```scss
-// Before (SCSS)
-.button {
-  padding: 8px 16px;
-  border-radius: 4px;
-
-  &--primary {
-    background: blue;
-    color: white;
-  }
-
-  &:disabled {
-    opacity: 0.6;
-  }
-}
-```
-
-```typescript
-// After (Animus)
-const Button = animus
-  .styles({
-    padding: '8px 16px',
-    borderRadius: '4px'
-  })
-  .variant({
-    prop: 'variant',
-    variants: {
-      primary: {
-        background: 'blue',
-        color: 'white'
-      }
-    }
-  })
-  .states({
-    disabled: {
-      opacity: 0.6
-    }
-  })
-  .asElement('button');
-```
-
-##### From Styled Components to Animus
-
-```typescript
-// Before (styled-components)
-const Button = styled.button<{ variant?: 'primary' | 'secondary' }>`
-  padding: ${props => props.theme.space[2]} ${props => props.theme.space[4]};
-  background: ${props => props.variant === 'primary' ? props.theme.colors.primary : props.theme.colors.secondary};
-`;
-```
-
-```typescript
-// After (Animus)
-const Button = animus
-  .styles({
-    px: 4, // Uses theme.space scale
-    py: 2
-  })
-  .variant({
-    prop: 'variant',
-    variants: {
-      primary: { bg: 'primary' },
-      secondary: { bg: 'secondary' }
-    }
-  })
-  .asElement('button');
-```
-
-#### Best Practices for Design Systems
-
-1. **Use Semantic Token Names**: Instead of `blue-500`, use `brand.primary`
-2. **Leverage Color Modes**: Define semantic aliases that change with modes
-3. **Component Composition**: Build complex components from simple ones
-4. **Consistent Prop APIs**: Use the same variant names across components
-5. **Document Token Usage**: Create a token reference guide for designers
-
-#### Token Reference Architecture
-
-```typescript
-// Create a centralized token reference
-export const designSystem = {
-   components: {
-     Button,
-     Card,
-     Input
-   },
-   tokens: theme._tokens, // Original token values
-   scales: {
-     colors: theme.colors,
-     space: theme.space,
-     // ... other scales
-   }
-};

+# @animus-ui/extract — Rust NAPI Extraction Crate
+
+Static CSS extraction pipeline. Parses TS/TSX via OXC, walks builder chains, evaluates static styles, resolves theme scales, generates `@layer`-structured CSS, and emits source replacements.
+
+## Crate Structure
+
+```
+src/
+  lib.rs              — NAPI entry points (3 exported functions)
+  chain_walker.rs     — Find .asElement()/.asComponent() terminals, walk chain backwards
+  style_evaluator.rs  — ObjectExpression AST → serde_json::Value (static eval)
+  theme_resolver.rs   — Scale lookup, token alias resolution ({scale.path} → var())
+  css_generator.rs    — Style values → @layer CSS (base, variants, states, system, custom)
+  jsx_scanner.rs      — Scan JSX for system prop / custom prop usage
+  transform_emitter.rs — Generate createComponent() replacement + CSS import
+  project_analyzer.rs — Multi-file universe analysis, manifest generation
+  chain_merger.rs     — Merge extension chains with parent configs
+  import_resolver.rs  — Cross-file import resolution
+  reconciler.rs       — Reconcile chain configs across files
+```
+
+## NAPI Functions
+
+### `extract(source, filename, theme_json, variable_map_json, config_json, group_registry_json) → ExtractionResult`
+
+Per-file extraction. Returns `{ css, code, source_map, extractable, errors }`.
+
+### `analyze_project(file_entries_json, theme_json, variable_map_json, contextual_vars_json?, config_json, group_registry_json, package_resolution_json, dev_mode?, prefix?, selector_aliases_json?, selector_order_json?, global_style_blocks_json?) → String`
+
+Project-level analysis. Accepts all source files, returns JSON manifest with resolved components, merged configs, complete CSS, per-component CSS fragments, and reverse provenance. `dev_mode` splits CSS into per-layer sheets. Manifest includes `component_fragments` (per-component CSS keyed by component_id) and `reverse_provenance` (parent → children for extension chain invalidation).
+
+### `load_system_module(system_path, root_dir, export_name?) → NapiSystemConfig`
+
+Load and evaluate a SystemInstance module. Reads the file from disk, strips TS types via OXC, resolves workspace package dependencies, bundles all modules, evaluates with rquickjs, calls `.toConfig()` and `.serialize()`. Returns `{ propConfig, groupRegistry, scalesJson, variableMapJson, variableCss, contextualVarsJson, selectorAliases?, selectorOrder?, globalStyleBlocks? }`. NAPI-rs auto-converts snake_case to camelCase.
+
+### `transform_file(source, filename, manifest_json) → TransformResult`
+
+Per-file source transformation using pre-computed manifest. Returns `{ code, hasComponents }`.
+
+**Note:** `variable_map_json` was added in the token alias arc. It maps `"token_path" → "css_variable_name"` for compile-time `{scale.path}` → `var(--name)` resolution.
+

+| NAPI binary       | `*.node` (e.g., `animus-extract.darwin-arm64.node`) | The actual native addon loaded by Node.js            |
+
+## Project Analyzer: 6-Phase Pipeline
+
+`project_analyzer.rs` orchestrates multi-file extraction in phases:
+
+1. **Parse + Walk** — chain_walker finds all `.asElement()`/`.asComponent()`/`.asClass()` terminals, walks backward
+2. **Resolve Bindings** — import_resolver builds cross-file binding map (tracks where each export originates)
+3. **Resolve Provenance** — match `.extend()` chains to parent components across files
+4. **Evaluate Chains** — style_evaluator + theme_resolver per chain, chain_merger for extensions
+5. **Scan + Reconcile** — jsx_scanner detects component usage in JSX, reconciler prunes unused variants/states
+6. **Generate** — css_generator emits `@layer`-structured CSS, transform_emitter builds `createComponent()` replacements
+
+## Key Design Decisions
+
+- **Per-property skip model:** When style_evaluator hits a non-static value (identifier, function call, ternary), it skips THAT PROPERTY only and continues evaluating the rest of the object. Skipped properties become dynamic prop candidates. This is graceful degradation, not all-or-nothing bail.
+- **Stable class names:** Generated from `filename::binding` hash, NOT from style values. Editing a style value doesn't change the class name — critical for HMR (CSS and JS updates reference the same class).
+- **Two AST parses per file:** One for chain walking (finding builder chains), one for JSX scanning (finding component usage). Separate passes because chain walking needs different AST traversal than JSX element scanning.
+- **Cache by content hash:** `project_analyzer` caches per-file results keyed by MD5 hash. On cache hit, full re-parse is skipped. Cache is unbounded (cleared only by `clear_analysis_cache()`).
+
+## Known Failure Modes
+
+- **Stale `.node` binary after signature change:** If you add/remove/reorder NAPI function parameters, the old binary silently accepts wrong arity or crashes at runtime. Fix: `rm *.node && napi build --platform --release`
+- **OXC version mismatch:** All `oxc_*` crates must be the same version. Cargo.toml pins them together at `0.121.0`.
+- **Per-property bail diagnostics:** The style evaluator skips non-static properties individually (not entire objects). Check `[skip]` markers in extraction errors for what was skipped.
+
+## Debugging Quick-Ref
+
+Symptom-to-fix table for failure modes that route through extraction or its consumers:
+
+| Symptom                              | Fix                                                   |
+| ------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------- |
+| Styles not updating in dev           | Restart dev server                                    |
+| Transforms seem stale                | `bun run clean:light`                                 |
+| NAPI function errors / wrong arity   | `bun run rebuild`                                     |
+| `verify:canary` "NAPI stale" error   | `vp run build:extract`                                |
+| `verify:*` "dist missing" error      | `vp run build:ts` (or `vp run build:all`)             |
+| Showcase builds but styles missing   | Check `virtual:animus/styles.css` in browser devtools |
+| CSS has `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders | Transform subprocess failed — check terminal warnings |
+| "Nothing works"                      | `bun run rebuild` (nuclear option)                    |

+# @animus-ui/extract
+
+Rust/NAPI static CSS extraction pipeline for Animus. Analyzes TypeScript source files using OXC, resolves builder chains against serialized system config, and emits layered CSS.
+
+This package is consumed by [`@animus-ui/vite-plugin`](../vite-plugin) and [`@animus-ui/next-plugin`](../next-plugin). You typically don't install it directly — the bundler plugins depend on it.
+
+## Platforms
+
+Pre-built binaries for:
+
+- `darwin-arm64` (macOS Apple Silicon)
+- `linux-x64-gnu` (Linux x64)
+- `linux-arm64-gnu` (Linux ARM64)
+
+## API
+
+```tsx
+import { analyzeProject } from '@animus-ui/extract';
+
+const manifest = analyzeProject(
+  fileEntriesJson,
+  scalesJson,
+  variableMapJson,
+  contextualVarsJson,
+  propConfig,
+  groupRegistry,
+  packageResolutionJson,
+  devMode,
+  prefix

+# @animus-ui/next-plugin
+
+Static CSS extraction for Next.js. Wraps `next.config` to integrate the Animus extraction pipeline via webpack.
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+npm install @animus-ui/next-plugin @animus-ui/system
+```
+
+## Setup
+
+```tsx
+// next.config.mjs
+import { withAnimus } from '@animus-ui/next-plugin';
+
+const nextConfig = {
+  // your existing Next.js config
+};
+
+export default withAnimus(nextConfig, {
+  system: './src/ds.ts',
+});
+```
+
+## What It Does
+
+- Adds a webpack loader that transforms `@animus-ui/system` builder chains into static CSS
+- Emits extracted CSS as a separate asset with `@layer` ordering
+- Works with both App Router and Pages Router
+- Supports RSC — no runtime style injection means server components work out of the box

+# @animus-ui/properties
+
+CSS property classification data for the Animus extraction pipeline. Provides the unitless property set, shorthand-to-longhand mappings, and CSS type re-exports.
+
+This is a transitive dependency of `@animus-ui/system`. You don't need to install it directly.
+
+## What It Provides
+
+- **Unitless properties**: Set of CSS properties that don't need `px` suffix (e.g., `lineHeight`, `opacity`, `zIndex`)
+- **Shorthand list**: Maps shorthand properties to their longhand expansions for cascade ordering
+- **Type re-exports**: Shared CSS type definitions

+# @animus-ui/showcase — Extraction Proof
+
+The showcase is the integration proof that the static extraction pipeline works end-to-end. Every component is built with `@animus-ui/system` (not `@animus-ui/core`, which is archived under `legacy/` — see root § Legacy Packages) and extracted at build time. There is no Emotion dependency.
+
+## Source Structure
+
+```
+src/
+  ds.ts               — Design system: createSystem() with tokens, prop groups, global styles
+  components/
+    index.ts           — Barrel re-export (named exports, tests import resolver)
+    layout/            — Scene, Slab, Stack, Row, StratumRow, EmberDivider
+    typography/        — Display, Prose, Mono, Label, SectionLabel, Accent, Strong
+    surfaces/          — CodeBlock, SyntaxBlock, Callout, RevealBlock
+    decorative/        — GradientBar, ReadingBarTrack, GoldDash, VerticalBleed, HorizontalMark, Divider
+  App.tsx              — Main app (The Excession — 8 chromatic worlds)
+  main.tsx             — Entry point
+  global.css           — Keyframe animations (not extractable via prop shorthand)
+  reset.css            — Legacy reset (superseded by .withGlobalStyles, still on disk but NOT imported)
+```
+
+Each component is in its own file (1 named export per file). This structure exercises:
+
+- **Barrel re-exports** — import resolver follows `./components` → `index.ts` → individual files
+- **Per-file HMR** — changing one component only invalidates that file, not all 22
+- **Subdirectory file discovery** — plugin's recursive walk finds files in nested dirs
+
+## Design System (`src/ds.ts`)
+
+- `createSystem().addGroup().build()` returns `{ system: ds, createGlobalStyles }`
+- `createGlobalStyles()` is a factory returned from `.build()`, used to define global/reset styles
+- Tokens built separately via `createTheme()` and exported as `tokens`. Theme type augmented via `declare module`.
+- Custom transforms: `fluid` (clamp-based responsive), `ratio` (aspect-ratio)
+- Global styles: reset (box-sizing, normalize) + global (bg/color on html/body, scrollbar, selection)
+- Color modes: dark (default) + 9 additional modes via `[data-color-mode]`
+- Fonts: IBM Plex Mono (display/mono), Geist (body)
+
+## Verification
+
+For verification commands, see root `CLAUDE.md` § Verification Tiers. For showcase-scoped proof, run `vp run verify:showcase` (build + assert). Direct single-package dev/build commands (e.g., `bun run --filter './packages/showcase' build`) are available for inner-package iteration.
+
+### What to check in the output
+
+- **Bundle size:** ~277KB JS (gzipped ~80KB). No Emotion runtime.
+- **CSS file:** Should contain `@layer global`, `@layer base`, `@layer variants`, `@layer states`, `@layer system`
+- **No Emotion imports:** `grep -r "@emotion" dist/` should return nothing
+- **Class names:** All components use `animus-ComponentName-hash` pattern
+
+## Common Breakage Patterns
+
+- **Global styles missing:** Restart the dev server. `buildStart` must re-run to re-evaluate the system subprocess. See vite-plugin CLAUDE.md.
+- **Vite resolve aliases:** NEVER add React or other resolve aliases to `vite.config.ts`. They silently break the transform pipeline.
+- **Stale Vite cache:** After pipeline changes, run `bun run clean:light` to clear `node_modules/.vite/`.
+- **Components not extracting:** Check that components use `ds.styles()` (the system instance from `createSystem().build()`), not `animus.styles()` (from the archived `@animus-ui/core` in `legacy/`). The system builder is extraction-compatible; the legacy emotion-runtime builder is not.
+- **CSS but no transforms applied:** Check for `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders in the output CSS. If present, the transform resolution subprocess failed — check terminal warnings.
+- **Component renders in dev but dropped from dist (e.g. `createPortal`/`createElement` usage):** If a component is rendered exclusively via `createElement(Component, ...)` (bare ident or member expression), it needs JSX scanner recognition of `CallExpression` forms. This was closed in `fix-selector-rule-extraction` Phase 1. Dev-mode now surfaces this class of drop as a `[animus] ⚠ X would be eliminated in production` warning at authoring time — if you see that warning, the component isn't being recognized as rendered and the production build will drop its CSS.
+- **Pass-through color props inside `_aliased`/`&:pseudo` blocks emit literal scale keys:** If `_focusVisible: { outlineColor: 'primary' }` produces `outline-color: primary;` instead of `outline-color: var(--color-primary)` in dist, the extractor's scale-lookup gate is missing the property. The color family (11 CSS color props) was closed in `fix-selector-rule-extraction` Phase 2; other families (length → space, etc.) are follow-on work.
+
+## Vite Config
+
+```typescript
+// vite.config.ts — minimal, no resolve aliases
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [react(), animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })],
+});
+```

+# Static Extraction & CSS Output
+
+Animus performs static analysis at build time — no runtime style computation, no style injection. The Vite plugin drives a Rust NAPI crate that reads every source file, walks builder chains, evaluates style values, and emits a complete `@layer`-structured stylesheet before the browser ever loads a byte.
+
+This page explains how that pipeline works from source to CSS.
+
+---
+
+## The Extraction Pipeline

+  possible, or accept that spread-only usage is dynamic and handle it at
+  runtime.
+</Callout>
+

+
+## The Serialization Pipeline
+
+Getting style information from a TypeScript design system into a Rust crate requires crossing four serialization boundaries.
+
+```
+tokens.serialize()   →   JSON string   →   bun subprocess   →   NAPI analyzeProject()   →   CSS string
+    (TypeScript)           (IPC)         (ESM isolation)          (Rust NAPI)              (output)
+```
+
+**Boundary 1 — TypeScript to JSON.** `tokens.serialize()` is called by a bun subprocess that imports your system module. It flattens the token tree into `scalesJson`, `variableMapJson`, `variableCss`, and `contextualVarsJson` — plain JSON strings the Rust crate can deserialize.
+
+**Boundary 2 — Subprocess IPC.** The plugin spawns a bun subprocess because the system module uses top-level imports that cannot be loaded into Vite's CJS plugin context. The subprocess returns the serialized output over stdout; the plugin reads and stores it.
+
+**Boundary 3 — NAPI call.** The plugin calls `analyzeProject()` from `@animus-ui/extract`, passing all source files plus the serialized theme and config JSON. The Rust crate returns a JSON string (the `UniverseManifest`), which the plugin parses back into an object.
+
+**Boundary 4 — Transform subprocess.** If the extracted CSS contains `__TRANSFORM__` markers (see below), a third bun subprocess is spawned to resolve them with live JavaScript transform functions. Transforms cannot cross the NAPI boundary because they are arbitrary JavaScript functions — not serializable.
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="strict is TypeScript-side only">
+  The `strict` plugin option controls whether the plugin throws or warns when
+  extraction issues are detected. The Rust crate itself has no strict mode — it
+  always passes through unresolved values and returns whatever CSS it can
+  produce. `strict: true` makes the TS plugin treat NAPI diagnostics as build
+  errors.
+</Callout>
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="Scale miss passthrough">
+  When a style value references a scale key that does not exist in the theme —
+  for example `fontSize: 'xl'` when no `xl` key is in the fontSizes scale — the
+  Rust crate does not fail or skip the property. It passes the raw string value
+  through as a literal CSS value. No warning is emitted from the Rust side. The
+  output CSS will contain the literal string `xl` as a `font-size` value, which
+  browsers will ignore.
+</Callout>
+
+---
+
+## @layer CSS Structure
+
+Animus emits CSS into seven named layers in a fixed cascade order. The layer declaration is always emitted first:
+
+```css
+@layer global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom;
+```
+
+Each layer has a defined role:
+
+| Layer       | Contents                                                  |
+| ----------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `global`    | `.withGlobalStyles()` reset and global blocks             |
+| `base`      | Component base styles (`.styles()` call)                  |
+| `variants`  | Named variant option styles (`.variant()` call)           |
+| `compounds` | Compound variant styles — multi-prop condition matches    |
+| `states`    | Boolean state styles (`.states()` call)                   |
+| `system`    | Utility classes generated from prop group values          |
+| `custom`    | Classes generated from `.props()` custom prop definitions |
+
+**Cascade mechanics.** Layers earlier in the declaration lose to layers later in the declaration — regardless of selector specificity. Within a single layer, source order determines precedence. Shorthand CSS properties (`border`, `flex`, `margin`, etc.) are emitted before their longhands within the same rule, ensuring longhands always win when both are present.
+
+**Variables are not layered.** CSS custom property declarations (`:root { --color-*: ... }`) and color mode selectors are emitted before any `@layer` block, as plain unlayered rules. Unlayered styles have higher precedence than layered styles, which is the correct behavior — tokens must be visible everywhere.
+
+**Consumer interleaving.** If you need to position your own app layers relative to Animus layers, pass a full `layers` array to `animusExtract`. The seven Animus layers must appear as a subsequence in their required order. Your app layers can be inserted anywhere around them.
+
+```typescript
+animusExtract({
+  system: './src/ds.ts',
+  layers: [
+    'global',
+    'base',
+    'variants',
+    'compounds',
+    'states',
+    'system',
+    'custom',
+    'overrides', // your layer — comes after all Animus layers
+  ],
+});
+```
+
+---
+
+## Per-Property Skip Model
+
+When the style evaluator encounters a non-static property value — an identifier, a function call, a ternary, a template literal — it skips that property and continues evaluating the rest of the object. It does not bail on the entire style object.
+
+```tsx
+ds.styles({
+  color: 'text', // extracted — static string
+  fontSize: 14, // extracted — static number
+  borderColor: themeVar, // skipped — non-static identifier
+  p: 16, // extracted — static number, continues after skip
+});
+```
+
+The skipped property becomes a dynamic prop candidate. At runtime, the generated component handles it via CSS custom property injection. The static CSS layer for that component simply won't contain a `border-color` declaration — the runtime slot fills it.
+
+This is graceful degradation by design. A single non-static value does not prevent the rest of the component's styles from extracting. Extraction diagnostics report skipped properties with a `[skip]` marker — visible in verbose output or `strict: true` build logs.
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Entire objects are not bailed">
+  If you expect a component to have no static styles and rely on it being
+  "skipped", that is not how the pipeline works. The evaluator is
+  property-by-property. Only the non-static properties are excluded; any static
+  properties in the same object will extract normally.
+</Callout>
+
+---
+
+## Stable Class Names
+
+Generated class names are derived from a hash of `filename::binding` — the source file path and the local variable name of the builder chain terminal.
+
+```
+animus-Button-a1b2c3
+         │       └── hash of "src/components/Button.tsx::Button"
+         └────────── binding name
+```
+
+The hash is computed from the identity of the component definition, not from its style values. This has a critical consequence for HMR: editing a style value does not change the class name. The same CSS class is updated in place — the class name in the rendered DOM remains valid, and only the stylesheet changes.
+
+If you rename a component or move it to a different file, the hash changes and a new class name is generated. This is expected and correct — it reflects a change to the component's identity.
+
+---
+
+## Dev vs Prod
+
+Both modes run the full extraction pipeline. The difference is in how the CSS is delivered.
+
+**Production.** `virtual:animus/styles.css` serves a single concatenated stylesheet. The three blocks — variable CSS, global CSS, and component CSS — are joined and post-processed by Lightning CSS (autoprefixing, syntax lowering, minification). One HTTP request for the entire stylesheet.
+
+**Development.** The Rust crate returns a `CssSheets` struct with per-layer strings (`base`, `variants`, `compounds`, `states`, `system`, `custom`). The plugin can deliver these as separate adopted stylesheets for structured updates. HMR invalidates only the CSS virtual module alongside the changed JS module — no full page reload for style changes.
+
+**Content-hash skip.** On each HMR update, files that have not changed since the last analysis are passed to the NAPI crate with an empty source string. The crate's per-file cache (keyed by MD5 hash) returns the cached result without re-parsing. Only the changed file crosses the NAPI boundary with real content.
+
+**Geological reset.** If the system file (`ds.ts`) changes — new tokens, new transforms, new groups — the plugin clears the NAPI file cache, re-runs the bun subprocess to reload the system, re-evaluates all tokens, and re-runs full project analysis. All components are re-extracted because token values may have changed globally.

+

+
+## Transform Placeholder Resolution
+
+When a prop has a named transform function (e.g., `fluid`, `ratio`), the Rust crate cannot apply it — transform functions are JavaScript and cannot cross the NAPI boundary. Instead, the crate emits a marker in the CSS value:
+
+```
+__TRANSFORM__{name}__{rawValue}__
+```
+
+For example, a `fluid` transform applied to the value `4px` produces:
+
+```css
+/* Rust emits this — not valid CSS */
+font-size: __TRANSFORM__fluid__4px__;
+```
+
+After `analyzeProject()` returns, the plugin checks whether the CSS contains any `__TRANSFORM__` markers. If it does, it spawns a bun subprocess that imports the system module, calls `ds.toConfig()` to retrieve the live transform functions, and applies them via a regex replacement:
+
+```javascript
+css.replace(/__TRANSFORM__(\w+)__(.+?)__/g, (_, name, rawValue) => {
+  const fn = cfg.transforms[name];
+  if (!fn) return rawValue;    // unknown transform: pass through raw value
+  const value = /* coerce to number if numeric */ ...;
+  return String(fn(value));
+});
+```
+
+If the transform name is not found in `cfg.transforms`, the raw value is substituted — the CSS degrades gracefully rather than breaking.
+
+<Callout
+  variant="warn"
+  title="Anonymous transforms emit placeholders that survive"
+>
+  A transform function defined inline (anonymous) on a custom prop cannot be
+  retrieved by name from `cfg.transforms`. The placeholder will be substituted
+  with the raw value, not the transform result. To use transforms in extracted
+  CSS, register them by name via the system builder and reference them by name
+  on the prop definition.
+</Callout>
+
+<BeforeAfter
+  before={{
+    label: 'NAPI output — before transform resolution',
+    code: `.animus-Display-x1y2 {
+  font-size: __TRANSFORM__fluid__14__;
+  line-height: __TRANSFORM__fluid__20__;
+}`,
+    language: 'css',
+  }}
+  after={{
+    label: 'after transform subprocess',
+    code: `.animus-Display-x1y2 {

+  line-height: clamp(1.25rem, 1.125rem + 0.5vw, 1.5rem);
+}`,
+    language: 'css',
+  }}
+/>
+
+If `__TRANSFORM__` strings appear in your browser's stylesheet, the transform resolution subprocess failed. Check the terminal for `[animus]` warnings — the system file either could not be loaded or a transform function threw during resolution.

+# Framework Agnostic
+
+Animus components are React components by default — but two escape hatches let you use extracted styles outside React entirely, or delegate element rendering to a child you don't control.
+
+---
+
+## .asClass() — No React Required
+
+`.asClass()` is a builder terminal, parallel to `.asElement()` and `.asComponent()`. It produces a plain class resolver function — no JSX, no `createElement`, no React dependency in the call site.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="asClass"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="(props?: Record<string, unknown>) => string"
+/>
+
+The returned function applies the same variant and state resolution logic as `createComponent` — same class lookup table, same prop filtering — but returns a space-joined class string instead of rendering an element.
+
+```ts
+import { ds } from './ds';
+
+const badgeClasses = ds
+  .styles({
+    display: 'inline-flex',
+    alignItems: 'center',
+    borderRadius: '999px',
+    fontWeight: 500,
+  })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'intent',
+    defaultVariant: 'neutral',
+    variants: {
+      neutral: { bg: 'surface', color: 'text' },
+      success: { bg: 'accent', color: 'bg' },
+      danger: { bg: 'secondary', color: 'bg' },
+    },
+  })
+  .asClass();
+
+// Returns a string — no React involved
+badgeClasses(); // base + defaultVariant classes
+badgeClasses({ intent: 'success' }); // base + success variant classes
+```
+
+The resolver accepts the same variant and state props that the component would accept. Unrecognized props are ignored — the function does not forward anything to the DOM.
+
+### When to reach for .asClass()
+
+- **Server frameworks** — Astro, Eleventy, Hono — where you assemble HTML strings directly
+- **Custom elements / Web Components** — you control `className` assignment yourself
+- **Testing** — assert which classes apply for a given prop combination without rendering
+- **Any context** where you own the element and just need the class string
+
+<ParamTable
+  params={[
+    {
+      name: 'props',
+      type: 'Record<string, unknown>',
+      default: '{}',
+      desc: 'Variant and state props. Same keys as the builder chain defined. Unrecognized keys are ignored. Omit entirely or pass undefined for default classes only.',
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+`.asClass()` is available on `AnimusWithAll` — the type returned after all builder methods, before any terminal call. It can also be called after `.props()` if you defined custom props.
+
+---
+
+## asChild — Headless Composition
+
+`asChild` is a boolean prop available on every Animus component rendered via `createComponent` (i.e., every `.asElement()` or `.asComponent()` output). When `true`, the component does not render its own element. Instead, it merges its resolved `className`, `ref`, and dynamic `style` onto the single child element.
+
+```tsx
+import { ds } from './ds'
+
+const Surface = ds.styles({
+  bg: 'surface',
+  border: 1,
+  borderColor: 'border',
+  borderRadius: '8px',
+  p: 16,
+}).asElement('div')
+
+// Renders <a> with Surface's classes, not <div>
+<Surface asChild>
+  <a href="/dashboard">Go to dashboard</a>
+</Surface>
+```
+
+The rendered HTML is the child element — `<a>` here, not `<div>`. Surface's extracted class names apply to it. The child's own `className` and `style` are merged, not overwritten.
+
+### Merge rules
+
+| Property         | Outcome                                                                     |
+| ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `className`      | Animus classes prepended; child's `className` appended                      |
+| `ref`            | Composed via `composeRefs` — both refs receive the node                     |
+| `style` (inline) | Parent `style` → child `style` → dynamic CSS vars. Later wins for same key. |
+| All other props  | Passed through from child unchanged                                         |
+
+The parent's variant and state props (`intent`, `size`, `bordered`, etc.) are consumed for class resolution and never forwarded to the DOM.
+
+### Constraints
+
+`asChild` requires **exactly one React element** as `children`. Strings, numbers, fragments, and arrays throw at render time. The child must accept `className` as a prop — plain DOM elements and most headless UI components satisfy this.
+
+```tsx
+// Correct — single React element
+<Surface asChild>
+  <a href="/foo">Link</a>
+</Surface>
+
+// Throws — multiple children
+<Surface asChild>
+  <span>A</span>
+  <span>B</span>
+</Surface>
+
+// Throws — string child
+<Surface asChild>plain string</Surface>
+```
+
+`as` and `asChild` are mutually exclusive. When both are present, `asChild` wins.
+
+### Headless library interop
+
+`asChild` is the correct pattern for composing with Radix UI, Ark UI, or any other headless library that renders its own element. You get the accessibility, keyboard handling, and ARIA attributes from the headless primitive; Animus applies the visual treatment.
+
+```tsx
+import * as Checkbox from '@radix-ui/react-checkbox'
+import { ds } from './ds'
+
+const StyledCheckbox = ds.styles({
+  display: 'flex',
+  alignItems: 'center',
+  justifyContent: 'center',
+  width: '20px',
+  height: '20px',
+  borderRadius: '4px',
+  border: 1,
+  borderColor: 'border',
+  bg: 'surface',
+  cursor: 'pointer',
+}).states({
+  checked: {
+    bg: 'primary',
+    borderColor: 'primary',
+  },
+}).asElement('div')
+
+// asChild delegates rendering to Radix's Checkbox.Root.
+// Radix owns the element and aria attributes.
+// Animus owns the visual class names.
+<StyledCheckbox asChild checked={isChecked}>
+  <Checkbox.Root onCheckedChange={setChecked} />
+</StyledCheckbox>
+```
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="No wrapper div">
+  `asChild` produces zero wrapper elements. The child element IS the output.
+  This matters for layout and accessibility — no extra node in the DOM, no
+  accidental flex/grid child, no additional ARIA nesting.
+</Callout>
+
+---
+
+## as Prop — Dynamic Elements
+
+The `as` prop swaps the rendered HTML element at runtime without changing the component's props or styles. It is available on all `.asElement()` output — not `.asComponent()` or `.asClass()`.
+
+```tsx
+const Text = ds.styles({
+  fontFamily: 'body',
+  lineHeight: 'normal',
+  color: 'text',
+}).variant({
+  prop: 'size',
+  defaultVariant: 'md',
+  variants: {
+    sm: { fontSize: 14 },
+    md: { fontSize: 16 },
+    lg: { fontSize: 18 },
+  },
+}).asElement('p')
+
+// Renders <p> — default
+<Text size="md">Body copy</Text>
+
+// Renders <span> — same styles, different element
+<Text as="span" size="sm">Inline label</Text>
+
+// Renders <h2> — useful for semantic overrides
+<Text as="h2" size="lg">Section heading</Text>
+```
+
+### TypeScript narrowing
+
+When `as` is a string, TypeScript does not narrow element-specific prop access. The `as` prop accepts any `keyof JSX.IntrinsicElements` value, but additional element-specific props (`href`, `target`, `htmlFor`, etc.) are not type-checked through the Animus prop surface.
+
+If you need typed element-specific props — for example, `href` on an `<a>` — use `asChild` with an actual `<a>` element as the child. The child's props are typed by its own element type.
+
+```tsx
+// TypeScript sees href as unknown — no element-specific narrowing
+<Text as="a" href="/about">About</Text>
+
+// TypeScript sees href typed correctly on the <a> element
+<Text asChild>
+  <a href="/about">About</a>
+</Text>
+```
+
+`as` is silently ignored if `asChild` is also `true` — `asChild` takes precedence and the child element wins.
+
+---
+
+## Runtime API
+
+`createComponent` and `createClassResolver` are the runtime backing functions for extracted Animus components. The Vite plugin replaces builder chain calls in your source with direct calls to these functions during the build. You do not call them directly.
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Extraction output, not user API">
+  These functions are emitted by the extraction pipeline. Calling them manually
+  bypasses static analysis and produces no extracted CSS. Author components
+  using the builder chain (`ds.styles()...`), then let the plugin replace them
+  at build time.
+</Callout>
+
+### createComponent
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="createComponent"
+  params={[
+    { name: 'element', type: 'string | React.ComponentType<any>' },
+    { name: 'className', type: 'string' },
+    { name: 'config', type: 'ComponentConfig' },
+    { name: 'systemPropMap', type: 'SystemPropMap | undefined' },
+    { name: 'dynamicPropConfig', type: 'DynamicPropConfig | undefined' },
+  ]}
+  returns="AnimusComponent"
+/>
+
+`createComponent` produces the `forwardRef` wrapper that handles variant and state class application at render time. It replaces `.asElement()` and `.asComponent()` in extracted output.
+
+- `element` — the HTML tag string or React component to render
+- `className` — the base extracted class name (e.g., `"animus-Button-a1b2"`)
+- `config` — variant definitions, state keys, and system prop names for filtering
+- `systemPropMap` — served via virtual module (`virtual:animus/styles.css`); maps prop→value→className
+- `dynamicPropConfig` — CSS variable metadata for props with detected dynamic usage
+
+The `extend()` method on extracted components throws at runtime with an actionable message. Extension must happen in source code before extraction runs.
+
+### createClassResolver
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="createClassResolver"
+  params={[
+    { name: 'className', type: 'string' },
+    { name: 'config', type: 'ClassResolverConfig' },

+    { name: 'dynamicPropConfig', type: 'DynamicPropConfig | undefined' },
+  ]}
+  returns="(props?: Record<string, unknown>) => string"
+/>
+
+`createClassResolver` produces the class resolver function returned by `.asClass()` in extracted output. It applies the same resolution logic as `createComponent` but skips all React rendering.

+# TypeScript Integration
+
+Animus is authored in TypeScript and exposes its full type algebra. This page covers the five areas where explicit type knowledge pays off: theme augmentation, extracting component types for wrappers, querying system prop shapes, working with path utilities, and understanding the primitive utility types that underpin the prop system.
+
+---
+
+## Theme Augmentation
+
+The `Theme` interface in `@animus-ui/system` is an empty baseline. Augmenting it wires your token scales into every `.styles()`, `.variant()`, and `.states()` call across the project.
+
+```ts
+// ds.ts
+export const tokens = createTheme()
+  .addBreakpoints({ sm: 768, lg: 1200 })
+  .addColors({ ... })
+  .addColorModes('dark', { ... })
+  .addScale({ name: 'space', values: [0, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 48, 64] })
+  .build();
+
+export type AppTheme = typeof tokens;
+
+declare module '@animus-ui/system' {
+  interface Theme extends AppTheme {}
+}
+```
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="File constraints">
+  The `declare module` block works as module augmentation when placed in a file
+  that is already an ES module (has at least one `import` or `export`). Placing
+  it in a plain script file (no imports/exports) makes it a global declaration,
+  not augmentation, and it may conflict with the module's own interface. The
+  standard pattern is `ds.ts` — which exports `tokens`, `ds`, and `AppTheme` —
+  with the `declare module` block at the bottom. TypeScript must also include
+  this file in compilation (via `tsconfig.json` `include` or a direct import)
+  for the augmentation to take effect project-wide.
+</Callout>
+
+**Before augmentation** — scale-bound props fall back to `string | number` and CSS property types. No autocomplete for token keys.
+
+**After augmentation** — scale-bound props narrow to their exact token key unions. `fontSize` on a prop configured with `scale: 'fontSizes'` becomes `11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 16 | 18 | 20 | ...`. Color props gain the `{colors.key}` and `{colors.key/opacity}` token ref syntax.
+
+```ts
+// Without augmentation
+ds.styles({ fontSize: '...' }); // string | number — no autocomplete
+
+// With augmentation (Theme extends AppTheme)
+ds.styles({ fontSize: 16 }); // 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 16 | 18 | ... — exact scale keys
+ds.styles({ bg: 'primary' }); // 'primary' | 'bg' | 'text' | ... — color mode keys
+ds.styles({ boxShadow: '{colors.glow/16}' }); // typed opacity ref syntax
+```
+
+The `Theme` interface is augmentable — not generic. This lets type constraints propagate into `.styles()` without threading a `T extends Theme` parameter through the entire 8-generic builder chain.
+
+---
+
+## Extracting Component Types
+
+### AnimusComponent
+
+The output type of `.asElement(tag)`. Carries all resolved prop types as a `ForwardRefExoticComponent` plus two phantom brands and an `.extend()` terminal.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="AnimusComponent"
+  generics="El, PR, GR, BS, V, S, AG, CP"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="ForwardRefExoticComponent<AnimusConsumerProps<El, PR, GR, V, S, AG, CP>> & ExtendFn<...> & { [ConsumerProps]: ...; [VariantConfigBrand]: V }"
+/>
+
+<ParamTable
+  params={[
+    {
+      name: 'El',
+      type: 'keyof JSX.IntrinsicElements',
+      default: '—',
+      desc: 'HTML element tag. Ref type narrows to the corresponding DOM element.',
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'PR',
+      type: 'Record<string, Prop>',
+      default: '—',
+      desc: 'Full prop registry from the system builder.',
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'GR',
+      type: 'Record<string, (keyof PR)[]>',
+      default: '—',
+      desc: 'Group registry — maps group names to their member prop keys.',
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'BS',
+      type: 'object',
+      default: '—',
+      desc: 'Base style config from .styles().',
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'V',
+      type: 'object',
+      default: '—',
+      desc: 'Accumulated variant config from .variant() calls.',
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'S',
+      type: 'object',
+      default: '—',
+      desc: 'State config from .states().',
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'AG',
+      type: 'object',
+      default: '—',
+      desc: 'Active groups from .system() calls.',
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'CP',
+      type: 'Record<string, Prop>',
+      default: '—',
+      desc: 'Custom prop config from .props().',
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+In practice you rarely reference `AnimusComponent` with its generics written out. Use `typeof Component` to carry the resolved type forward.
+
+```ts
+import type { AnimusComponent } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+const Button = ds
+  .styles({ display: 'inline-flex' })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'size',
+    variants: { sm: { fontSize: 13 }, md: { fontSize: 16 } },
+  })
+  .asElement('button');
+
+// AnimusComponent with all 8 generics inferred
+type ButtonType = typeof Button;
+```
+
+### AnimusWrappedComponent
+
+The output type of `.asComponent(Component)`. Wraps an existing React component — refs are typed as the wrapped component's ref type.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="AnimusWrappedComponent"
+  generics="PR, GR, BS, V, S, AG, CP"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="ForwardRefExoticComponent<Record<string, any> & GroupProps & VariantProps & StateProps & SelectorAliasProps & { as?; asChild?; className?; children? }> & ExtendFn<...>"
+/>
+
+Unlike `AnimusComponent`, the wrapped form does not constrain HTML attribute types — `Record<string, any>` keeps the wrapped component's own prop surface open.
+
+### VariantPropsOf
+
+Extracts the variant prop union from a component. Works on `AnimusComponent`, `AnimusWrappedComponent`, and the output of `compose()` (Root slot variant props only).
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="VariantPropsOf"
+  generics="C"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="VariantProps<ExtractVariantsConfig<C>>"
+/>
+
+```ts
+import type { VariantPropsOf } from '@animus-ui/system'
+
+const Badge = ds.styles({ display: 'inline-flex' })
+  .variant({ prop: 'intent', variants: { neutral: {}, active: {}, success: {} } })
+  .variant({ prop: 'size', variants: { sm: {}, md: {} } })
+  .asElement('span')
+
+type BadgeVariants = VariantPropsOf<typeof Badge>
+// → { intent?: 'neutral' | 'active' | 'success'; size?: 'sm' | 'md' }
+
+// Forward variant props in a wrapper without re-declaring them
+function StatusBadge({ label, ...variants }: BadgeVariants & { label: string }) {
+  return <Badge {...variants}>{label}</Badge>
+}
+```
+
+`VariantPropsOf` reads from the `VariantConfigBrand` phantom brand rather than inferring through the full class hierarchy. This prevents the TS2590 "union type too complex" error that occurs in Next.js environments with large prop registries.
+
+**State props are not included.** States are typed as `boolean | undefined` and are accessible via `ComponentPropsWithRef<typeof Component>` if needed.
+
+**On compose() output.** `VariantPropsOf<typeof Family.Root>` gives the Root slot's variant props, which are the only variants that can be declared `shared` in a compose config.
+
+```ts
+import { compose } from '@animus-ui/system';
+import type { VariantPropsOf } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+const { Root, Body } = compose({ Root, Body }, { shared: { size: true } });
+
+// Root variant props include shared variants — Body receives them via cascade
+type FamilyRootVariants = VariantPropsOf<typeof Root>;
+```
+
+---
+
+## System Prop Types
+
+### SystemProps
+
+Strips the `theme` key from a parser's props, returning only the style props a component consumer sees.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="SystemProps"
+  generics="P extends AbstractParser"
+  params={[{ name: 'P', type: 'AbstractParser' }]}
+  returns="{ [K in keyof Omit<Arg<P>, 'theme'>]: Omit<Arg<P>, 'theme'>[K] }"
+/>
+
+```ts
+import type { SystemProps } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+// Given a parser P, get the props it accepts without the injected theme
+type MySystemProps = SystemProps<typeof myParser>;
+// → { color?: ...; bg?: ...; fontSize?: ... }  — no 'theme' key
+```
+
+### ParserProps
+
+Builds the full typed props interface for a concrete `Parser<Config, T>`. Each key in `Config` maps to its `Scale<Config[K], T>` — scale-resolved and responsive-wrapped.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="ParserProps"
+  generics="Config extends Record<string, Prop>, T extends BaseTheme"
+  params={[
+    { name: 'Config', type: 'Record<string, Prop>' },
+    { name: 'T', type: 'BaseTheme' },
+  ]}
+  returns="ThemeProps<{ [P in keyof Config]?: Scale<Config[P], T> }, T>"
+/>
+
+### AbstractParser
+
+The minimal structural shape all parsers satisfy. Use this as a constraint when writing utilities that accept any Animus parser without knowing its specific config.
+
+```ts
+import type { AbstractParser } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+interface AbstractParser {
+  (props: AbstractProps, orderProps?: boolean): CSSObject;
+  propNames: string[];
+  config: Record<string, Prop>;
+}
+```
+
+### Parser
+
+The concrete, typed version of `AbstractParser`. Config and theme generics are resolved — useful when you need to inspect `config` with known key types.
+
+```ts
+import type { Parser } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+interface Parser<Config extends Record<string, Prop>, T extends BaseTheme> {
+  (props: ParserProps<Config, T>, orderProps?: boolean): CSSObject;
+  propNames: Extract<keyof Config, string>[];
+  config: Config;
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Path & Scale Types
+
+These utilities power `EmittedTokenPaths` and the token ref type system. You typically consume them through `EmittedTokenPaths<typeof tokens>` rather than directly, but understanding the primitives helps when building tooling around the theme graph.
+
+### FindPath
+
+Recursively enumerates all dot-separated paths of object `T` for a subset of keys `K`.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="FindPath"
+  generics="T, K extends keyof T, D extends string = '.'"
+  params={[
+    { name: 'T', type: 'object' },
+    { name: 'K', type: 'keyof T' },
+    { name: 'D', type: 'string' },
+  ]}
+  returns="K | \`${K}${D}${FindPath<T[K], keyof T[K], D>}\`"
+/>
+
+```ts
+import type { FindPath } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+type Colors = { fire: { 500: string; 600: string }; gray: { 100: string } };
+type ColorPaths = FindPath<Colors, keyof Colors>;
+// → 'fire' | 'fire.500' | 'fire.600' | 'gray' | 'gray.100'
+```
+
+Arrays are handled: array keys (`0`, `1`, ...) are included in the path union via `ArrayLike<any>` detection, excluding built-in array method keys.
+
+### Path
+
+Shorthand that calls `FindPath` with all keys of `T`.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="Path"
+  generics="T, D extends string = '.'"
+  params={[
+    { name: 'T', type: 'object' },
+    { name: 'D', type: 'string' },
+  ]}
+  returns="FindPath<T, keyof T, D> | keyof T"
+/>
+
+### PathValue
+
+Resolves the value type at a given dot-path string `P` inside `T`.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="PathValue"
+  generics="T, P extends Path<T, D>, D extends string = '.'"
+  params={[
+    { name: 'T', type: 'object' },
+    { name: 'P', type: 'Path<T, D>' },
+    { name: 'D', type: 'string' },
+  ]}
+  returns="T[K] | PathValue<T[K], Rest, D> | never"
+/>
+
+```ts
+import type { PathValue } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+type Colors = { fire: { 500: '#FF2800' } };
+type Val = PathValue<Colors, 'fire.500'>;
+// → '#FF2800'
+```
+
+### PathToLiteral
+
+Filters the path union to only those paths whose resolved value is a primitive (`string | number`). Removes intermediate object paths — useful when you want leaf paths only.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="PathToLiteral"
+  generics="T, K extends Path<T, D>, D extends string = '.', Base extends string = ''"
+  params={[
+    { name: 'T', type: 'object' },
+    { name: 'K', type: 'Path<T, D>' },
+    { name: 'D', type: 'string' },
+    { name: 'Base', type: 'string' },
+  ]}
+  returns="K (filtered to primitive leaf paths)"
+/>
+
+### LiteralPaths
+
+Reduces all paths to a flat map with primitive leaf values. Intermediate object keys are excluded — the output is `{ 'scale.key': value }` for every token.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="LiteralPaths"
+  generics="T extends Record<string | number, any>, D extends string = '.', Base extends string = ''"
+  params={[
+    { name: 'T', type: 'Record<string | number, any>' },
+    { name: 'D', type: 'string' },
+    { name: 'Base', type: 'string' },
+  ]}
+  returns="{ [K in Path<T, D> as PathToLiteral<T, K, D, Base>]: PathValue<T, PathToLiteral<T, K, D>, D> }"
+/>
+
+`EmittedTokenPaths` is built from `LiteralPaths`:
+
+```ts
+import type { EmittedTokenPaths } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+// All valid {scale.key} ref paths for emitted token scales
+type Refs = EmittedTokenPaths<typeof tokens>;
+// → 'colors.primary' | 'colors.bg' | 'colors.text' | 'space.8' | ...
+```
+
+### KeyAsVariable
+
+Maps each key of a flat token object to its `var(--prefix-key)` CSS variable reference string.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="KeyAsVariable"
+  generics="T extends Record<string, any>, Prefix extends string"
+  params={[
+    { name: 'T', type: 'Record<string, any>' },
+    { name: 'Prefix', type: 'string' },
+  ]}
+  returns="{ [V in keyof T]: \`var(--${Prefix}-${SanitizeKey<V>})\` }"
+/>
+
+```ts
+import type { KeyAsVariable } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+type Vars = KeyAsVariable<{ primary: string; bg: string }, 'color'>;
+// → { primary: 'var(--color-primary)'; bg: 'var(--color-bg)' }
+```
+
+### SanitizeKey
+
+Strips a leading `$` from a string key. Prevents `$primary` from becoming `--prefix-$primary`.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="SanitizeKey"
+  generics="T extends string"
+  params={[{ name: 'T', type: 'string' }]}
+  returns="T extends \`$${infer Y}\` ? Y : T"
+/>
+
+```ts
+import type { SanitizeKey } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+type A = SanitizeKey<'$primary'>; // → 'primary'
+type B = SanitizeKey<'bg'>; // → 'bg'
+```
+
+---
+
+## Prop & Config Types
+
+### AbstractProps
+
+The maximally-loose props shape. Equivalent to `ThemeProps<Record<string, unknown>, BaseTheme>`. Used as the `Props` bound in builder chain generics where the concrete shape is not yet known.
+
+```ts
+import type { AbstractProps } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+// AbstractProps = Record<string, unknown> & { theme?: BaseTheme }
+```
+
+### ThemeProps
+
+Adds an optional `theme` key to any props object. The `theme` key carries the resolved theme instance at runtime (injected by the component system).
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="ThemeProps"
+  generics="Props = {}, T extends BaseTheme = BaseTheme"
+  params={[
+    { name: 'Props', type: 'object' },
+    { name: 'T', type: 'BaseTheme' },
+  ]}
+  returns="Props & { theme?: T }"
+/>
+
+`SystemProps<P>` is the complement — it strips `theme` back off when building consumer-facing prop types.
+
+### NarrowPrimitive
+
+`T & {}`. The standard TypeScript technique for preventing type alias caching on `string` and `number` that would collapse a union with literal types.
+
+```ts
+type NarrowPrimitive<T> = T & {};
+```
+
+**Why it exists.** Without this, `type Foo = 'a' | 'b' | string` collapses to `string` — the literal union is lost. With `NarrowPrimitive<string>`, the alias `'a' | 'b' | (string & {})` preserves the literals for autocomplete while still accepting arbitrary strings at runtime.
+
+**Usage in Animus.** `NarrowPrimitive` appears in `PropertyTypes` — it allows CSS property values like `fontSize` to autocomplete their common string values (`'inherit'`, `'initial'`, etc.) while still accepting freeform CSS strings. Scale-bound props use a different mechanism: `ScaleValue<Config, T>` which unions scale keys with `PropertyValues<Config, StrictOrEmpty<...>>`.
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Inline, do not alias">
+  If you use `NarrowPrimitive` in your own types, always inline the expression
+  (`T & {}`) — never assign it to a named alias and reuse that alias. TypeScript
+  caches type aliases and will often collapse the literal union back when the
+  alias is evaluated lazily.
+</Callout>
+
+### ArrayScale
+
+Inline scale defined as a readonly array. The extracted union is `scale[number]`.
+
+```ts
+import type { ArrayScale } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+type ArrayScale = readonly (string | number)[];
+
+// Usage in a prop config
+const fontWeights = [400, 500, 600, 700, 800] as const satisfies ArrayScale;
+// prop with scale: fontWeights → accepts 400 | 500 | 600 | 700 | 800
+```
+
+### MapScale
+
+Inline scale defined as a key-value record. The extracted union is `keyof scale`.
+
+```ts
+import type { MapScale } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+type MapScale = Record<string | number, string | number>;
+
+// Usage in a prop config
+const radii: MapScale = { sm: '4px', md: '8px', full: '9999px' };
+// prop with scale: radii → accepts 'sm' | 'md' | 'full'
+```
+
+Both `ArrayScale` and `MapScale` are accepted wherever a `Prop`'s `scale` field is typed as `string | MapScale | ArrayScale`. An inline scale takes precedence over a theme scale name string — if you provide an object or array, no `Theme` lookup occurs.

+
+Color modes in Animus are a two-layer system. `addColors` defines the static palette — raw hex values that become CSS custom properties in `:root`. `addColorModes` defines semantic aliases that map role names (`primary`, `bg`, `text`) to palette keys. Each mode emits an attribute selector block; switching modes at runtime is a single DOM attribute write.
+
+---
+
+## Defining Color Palettes
+
+`addColors` registers named color scales. Every entry emits a CSS custom property: a flat key `ember` becomes `--color-ember`, a nested key `gray.900` becomes `--color-gray-900`.
+
+### addColors
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="addColors"
+  params={[
+    {
+      name: 'colors',
+      type: 'Record<string, CSSColorValue | Record<string, CSSColorValue | Record<string, CSSColorValue>>>',

+      desc: 'Nested color definitions. Leaves must be valid CSS color values. Up to three nesting levels: scale → step → sub-step. Each leaf emits a --color-* custom property.',
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+Nesting flattens to a dot-path: `{ gray: { 900: "#111" } }` → `--color-gray-900: #111`. Up to three nesting levels are supported.
+
+<CodeExample
+  input={`const tokens = createTheme()

+

+
+Alias values are bare color paths — `'fire.500'`, `'gray.900'` — that reference keys registered in `addColors`. Three nesting levels produce three CSS variable naming tiers:
+
+| Config shape                                    | Generated variable                         |
+| ----------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
+| `primary: 'fire.500'`                           | `--color-primary`                          |
+| `primary: { _: 'fire.500', hover: 'fire.600' }` | `--color-primary`, `--color-primary-hover` |
+| `button: { bg: { hover: 'fire.400' } }`         | `--color-button-bg-hover`                  |
+
+The `_` key at any level represents the default (unnamed) variant for that node.

+  structure.
+</Callout>

+<Callout variant="warn" title="Mode coverage">
+  If an alias key appears in one mode but is absent from another, the `:root`
+  value persists when the missing mode is active. Always define the same alias

+</Callout>
+
+---
+
+## Switching Modes at Runtime
+
+Set the `data-color-mode` attribute on `<html>` or any ancestor element. The `[data-color-mode]` attribute selector overrides the `:root` defaults for everything within that subtree. No JavaScript runs — it is pure CSS cascade.
+
+```ts
+// Switch the entire document
+document.documentElement.setAttribute('data-color-mode', 'light');
+
+// Switch a subtree only
+document.querySelector('.sidebar').setAttribute('data-color-mode', 'midnight');
+```
+
+The initial mode requires no attribute — removing `data-color-mode` restores it automatically.
+
+### Using the `mode` system prop
+
+When your system includes the `mode` system prop, you can apply a color mode declaratively in JSX:
+
+```tsx
+const InvertedCard = ds
+  .styles({ bg: 'bg', p: 32, rounded: 'md' })
+  .system({ mode: true })
+  .asElement('div');
+
+// Applies data-color-mode="light" to this element and its subtree
+<InvertedCard mode="light">
+  <p>This subtree uses the light mode aliases.</p>
+</InvertedCard>;
+```
+
+`mode` is an attribute binding — no CSS property is written. The `data-color-mode` attribute is set directly on the rendered element.
+
+Cross-reference: [System Props — mode](/docs/authoring/system-props#mode)
+
+---
+
+## Color Patterns & Workarounds
+
+### Opacity syntax
+
+Apply alpha to any color token reference using the `/{alpha}` modifier. This works in template syntax and in bare scale keys when the prop accepts opacity:
+
+```tsx
+ds.styles({
+  // template syntax — for untyped CSS properties
+  boxShadow: '0 0 24px {colors.fire.500/20}',
+  background: '{colors.fire.500/8}',
+
+  // typed color prop — bare key, no template needed
+  color: 'text',
+});
+```
+
+`{colors.fire.500/20}` resolves to `color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-fire-500) 20%, transparent)`. Alpha `0` collapses to `transparent`; `100` passes through unchanged.
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="Opacity on semantic aliases">
+  The opacity modifier works on both palette keys (`{colors.fire.500/40}`) and semantic aliases (`{colors.primary/40}`). The resulting `color-mix` wraps whatever CSS variable the alias resolves to.
+</Callout>
+
+### Scheme binding
+
+The `scheme` alias group is a convention for exposing a full 50–950 ramp as a per-mode color scale. Each mode maps the `scheme.*` slots to a different palette scale. Components authored against `scheme.500`, `scheme.100`, etc. automatically shift their entire color identity when the mode changes.
+
+```ts
+.addColorModes('dark', {
+  dark: {
+    scheme: {
+      50:  'fire.50',
+      100: 'fire.100',
+      200: 'fire.200',
+      300: 'fire.300',
+      400: 'fire.400',
+      500: 'fire.500',
+      600: 'fire.600',
+      700: 'fire.700',
+      800: 'fire.800',
+      900: 'fire.900',
+      950: 'fire.950',
+    },
+  },
+  ocean: {
+    scheme: {
+      50:  'ocean.50',
+      100: 'ocean.100',
+      // ...full ramp bound to ocean scale
+      950: 'ocean.950',
+    },
+  },
+})
+```
+
+A variant that uses `scheme.500` as its background color will render as fire-red in `dark` mode and ocean-blue in `ocean` mode — the component definition never changes.
+
+```tsx
+const Badge = ds
+  .styles({})
+  .variant('intent', {
+    accent: { bg: 'scheme.500', color: 'scheme.50' },
+    subtle: { bg: 'scheme.100', color: 'scheme.800' },
+    outline: { borderColor: 'scheme.500', color: 'scheme.600' },
+  })
+  .asElement('span');
+```
+
+### Contextual variables and `currentColor`
+
+For borders and rings that should match the current text color, use `currentColor` directly — it is a valid CSS value:
+
+```tsx
+ds.styles({
+  border: '1px solid',
+  borderColor: 'border', // typed prop — semantic alias
+  outlineColor: 'primary', // follows mode alias
+});
+```
+
+For components that need to know their own background color (e.g., to pass it to a child), use `declareContextualVars` to register a slot, then set it via the `vars` system prop at render time:
+
+```tsx
+// In ds.ts — declare the slot
+const tokens = createTheme()
+  .addBreakpoints({ sm: 768 })
+  .addColors({ gray: { 900: '#080808' } })
+  .declareContextualVars({ colors: ['current-bg'] })
+  .addColorModes('dark', { dark: { bg: 'gray.900' } })
+  .build();
+
+// In component — set and consume
+const Surface = ds.styles({ bg: 'bg' }).system({ vars: true }).asElement('div');
+
+<Surface vars={{ '--color-current-bg': 'var(--color-bg)' }}>
+  {/* children can read var(--color-current-bg) */}
+</Surface>;
+```

+# Global Styles
+
+The cascade contract declares `@layer global` as its floor:
+
+```
+@layer global, base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom;
+```
+
+Every component style layer sits above it. Global styles — resets, body defaults, scrollbar rules, keyframe animations — belong there. `createGlobalStyles` puts them there using the same prop vocabulary as components: same shorthand props, same token refs, same extraction pipeline.
+
+---
+
+## createGlobalStyles
+
+`createGlobalStyles` is returned alongside the system instance from `createSystem().build()`. It is not a standalone import — it is bound to your system's prop config, so it knows how to resolve the props you've registered.
+
+```ts
+export const { system: ds, createGlobalStyles } = createSystem()
+  .addGroup('surface', { ...color, ...border, ...background })
+  .addGroup('space', space)
+  .build();
+```
+
+Call it once with a `GlobalStyleMap` to produce a `GlobalStyleBlock`. Export the result — the plugin discovers it by the `__brand` marker and emits it into `@layer global` at build time.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="createGlobalStyles"
+  params={[{ name: 'styles', type: 'GlobalStyleMap' }]}
+  returns="GlobalStyleBlock"
+/>
+
+The factory is called once at module evaluation time. The returned block is static — no runtime style injection, no re-evaluation per render.
+
+### GlobalStyleMap
+
+```ts
+type GlobalStyleMap = Record<string, Record<string, any>>;
+```
+
+Top-level keys are CSS selectors. Values are style objects using system prop shorthand or raw CSS property names. Token references follow the same bare scale key form as component styles.
+
+```ts
+export const globalStyles = createGlobalStyles({
+  '*, *::before, *::after': { boxSizing: 'border-box' },
+  'html, body': { bg: 'bg', color: 'text' },
+  a: {
+    color: 'primary',
+    textDecoration: 'none',
+  },
+  'a:hover': { textDecoration: 'underline' },
+});
+```
+
+Prop shorthand (`bg`, `color`, `m`, `p`) resolves through the system's prop config — same scale lookups, same transform application, same token alias resolution as in `.styles()`. Raw CSS property names (`boxSizing`, `textDecoration`) pass through camelCase-to-kebab conversion only.
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="Discovery by export">
+  The plugin collects every export from your system module whose `__brand`
+  equals `'GlobalStyleBlock'`. Multiple named exports are all collected and
+  emitted in export order, joined inside one `@layer global` block. There is no
+  registration call — exporting the block is sufficient.
+</Callout>
+
+---
+
+## Reset & Global Layer Structure
+
+At build time, the plugin runs a subprocess that loads your system module, reads every `GlobalStyleBlock` export, and calls `resolveGlobalStyles` from the extract pipeline. The pipeline resolves prop shorthand, scale lookups, transforms, and `{token.path}` aliases in values — then wraps the result in `@layer global`.
+
+<CodeExample
+  input={`// ds.ts
+export const globalStyles = createGlobalStyles({
+  '*, *::before, *::after': { boxSizing: 'border-box' },
+  body: {
+    m: 0,
+    fontWeight: '400',
+    lineHeight: '1.625',
+  },
+  'html, body': { bg: 'bg', color: 'text' },
+  '::-webkit-scrollbar': { width: '3px', height: '3px' },
+  '::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb': { bg: 'scrollbar' },
+  '::selection': { bg: 'selection', color: 'selection.text' },
+})`}
+  output={`@layer global {
+  *, *::before, *::after {
+    box-sizing: border-box;
+  }
+
+body {
+margin: 0;
+font-weight: 400;
+line-height: 1.625;
+}
+
+html, body {
+background-color: var(--color-bg);
+color: var(--color-text);
+}
+
+::-webkit-scrollbar {
+width: 3px;
+height: 3px;
+}
+
+::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb {
+background-color: var(--color-scrollbar);
+}
+
+::selection {
+background-color: var(--color-selection);
+color: var(--color-selection-text);
+}
+}`}
+/>
+
+The emitted CSS contains no token values — only CSS variables. Token refs shift automatically across color modes because the variables are re-bound by `[data-color-mode]` selectors in the variable CSS layer.
+
+### GlobalStyleBlock.serialize
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="serialize"
+  params={[
+    { name: 'propConfig', type: 'Record<string, any>' },
+    { name: 'transforms', type: 'Record<string, NamedTransform>' },
+  ]}
+  returns="GlobalStyleMap"
+/>
+
+`serialize` is called by the global styles resolution subprocess during `buildStart`. It receives the system's prop config (from `ds.toConfig().propConfig`) and the live transform functions (from `ds.toConfig().transforms`). The extract pipeline uses these to resolve prop shorthand and run named transforms against scale values before emitting CSS.
+
+You do not call `serialize` directly. Export the `GlobalStyleBlock` and the plugin handles resolution.
+
+---
+
+## Keyframes & Animations
+
+`@keyframes` rules use the at-rule string as the top-level key. The value is an object of keyframe stops, each of which is a style object accepting the same prop shorthand as any other rule.
+
+<CodeExample
+  input={`export const globalStyles = createGlobalStyles({
+  // ... resets ...
+  '@keyframes spotlight': {
+    '0%, 100%': { textShadow: 'glow-text' },
+    '50%': { textShadow: 'glow-text-strong' },
+  },
+})`}
+  output={`@layer global {
+  @keyframes spotlight {
+    0%, 100% {
+      text-shadow: 0 0 30px color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-glow) 40%, transparent), 0 0 80px color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-glow) 15%, transparent);
+    }
+    50% {
+      text-shadow: 0 0 50px color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-glow) 70%, transparent), 0 0 120px color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-glow) 25%, transparent);
+    }
+  }
+}`}
+/>
+
+Inside the structured form the frame bodies share the same vocabulary as the selector rules above them — prop shorthand (`textShadow: 'glow-text'`) resolves through the `shadows` scale because `createGlobalStyles` is bound to the system's prop config, and any `{colors.*}` references in the value resolve to CSS variables.
+
+### Top-level `keyframes()` primitive
+
+Alongside the structured `@keyframes <name>` form inside `createGlobalStyles`, declare keyframes via the top-level `keyframes()` factory. It returns a **branded collection** exposing one typed reference per named keyframe, intended for distributed authoring across files and packages.
+
+```ts
+import { keyframes } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+export const animations = keyframes({
+  ember: {
+    '0%, 100%': { textShadow: '{shadows.glow-text}' },
+    '50%': { textShadow: '{shadows.glow-text-strong}' },
+  },
+  flow: {
+    '0%': { backgroundPosition: '200% 0' },
+    '100%': { backgroundPosition: '-200% 0' },
+  },
+  tallyPulse: {
+    '0%, 100%': { transform: 'scale(1)' },
+    '50%': { transform: 'scale(1.02)' },
+  },
+});
+```
+
+The return value is a record: `animations.ember`, `animations.flow`, and `animations.tallyPulse` are each branded `KeyframeRef` objects that carry their literal key at the type level. Typos fail at the collection access site with a clean "Property 'embr' does not exist" error, not at animation reference.
+
+Each keyframe's CSS name is a deterministic FNV-1a content hash of its frame body (`animus-kf-<hash>`), stable across rebuilds. Identical frame bodies across keys dedupe into a single `@keyframes` block naturally.
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="Frame body vocabulary narrows in `keyframes()`">
+Inside a `keyframes()` frame body you can use CSS property names, raw values, and `{scale.key}` token references — the same syntax used everywhere else in Animus for theme-resolved values. Bare scale keys like `textShadow: 'glow-text'` (the form supported in `ds.styles()` and the structured `@keyframes <name>` selector inside `createGlobalStyles`) are NOT resolved here, because the factory is a top-level primitive and does not carry system prop-config context. Use the `{shadows.glow-text}` form instead.
+</Callout>
+
+The plugin discovers `keyframes()` collections via `__brand === 'Keyframes'` during system-module loading (same pattern as `createGlobalStyles` exports), iterates each named frame, and emits one `@keyframes <resolved-name> { ... }` block per key into `@layer global`.
+
+### Referencing Keyframes in Components
+
+Reference branded keyframe refs directly on `animationName`. The Rust extractor traces the binding back through imports to the originating `keyframes()` collection and substitutes the resolved name into the emitted CSS — your component's CSS stays fully static, with no runtime dynamic-style injection.
+
+```tsx
+import { animations, ds } from './ds';
+
+export const EmberGlow = ds
+  .styles({
+    animationName: animations.ember,
+    animationDuration: '4s',
+    animationTimingFunction: 'ease-in-out',
+    animationIterationCount: 'infinite',
+    '@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce)': {
+      animationName: 'none',
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('span');
+
+export const Marquee = ds
+  .styles({
+    animationName: animations.flow,
+    animationDuration: '5s',
+    animationTimingFunction: 'linear',
+    animationIterationCount: 'infinite',
+  })
+  .asElement('span');
+```
+
+The structured form inside `createGlobalStyles` (earlier example on this page) continues to work in parallel — you can author some keyframes through each path.
+
+<EmberGlow>ember</EmberGlow> <TallyPulse>tally pulse</TallyPulse>
+
+Because `@keyframes` rules land in `@layer global` and component styles land in layers above it, the keyframe declarations are always present when animation properties reference them.
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Keyframe bindings must be statically resolvable">
+  The extractor substitutes `animations.ember`-style member-expression
+  references by tracing the `animations` binding back to its `keyframes(...)`
+  factory call. Runtime-dynamic paths (shadowed bindings, values from a function
+  call, dynamic computed access like `animations[key]`) fall through to the
+  runtime `toString()` coercion fallback in dev, but fail the strict build. Keep
+  the binding and key names literal at call sites.
+</Callout>
+
+---
+
+## Type Reference
+
+### GlobalStylesFactory
+
+```ts
+type GlobalStylesFactory = (styles: GlobalStyleMap) => GlobalStyleBlock;
+```
+
+Returned from `createSystem().build()`. Bound to the system instance's prop config and transforms. Each call produces an independent `GlobalStyleBlock`.
+
+### GlobalStyleBlock
+
+```ts
+interface GlobalStyleBlock {
+  __brand: 'GlobalStyleBlock';
+  styles: GlobalStyleMap;
+  serialize(
+    propConfig: Record<string, any>,
+    transforms: Record<string, NamedTransform>
+  ): GlobalStyleMap;
+}
+```
+
+Branded wrapper. The `__brand` field is the plugin's discovery signal — it scans all named exports of your system module and collects any value where `__brand === 'GlobalStyleBlock'`. The `.styles` property holds the original map. `.serialize()` is called during global styles resolution to run prop resolution and transform application before CSS emission.
+
+### GlobalStyleMap
+
+```ts
+type GlobalStyleMap = Record<string, Record<string, any>>;
+```
+
+Keys are CSS selectors or `@keyframes` at-rule strings. Values are style objects accepting system prop names (resolved through prop config and scales) or raw camelCase CSS property names (converted to kebab-case verbatim).
+
+---
+
+Next: [Color Modes](/docs/architecture/color-modes) — define `[data-color-mode]` selectors that rebind the CSS variables emitted into the layer above global styles.

+
+# System Setup
+
+The system is the runtime and extraction surface of your design system. It registers every CSS prop your components can use, groups those props into ergonomic handles, defines selector aliases, and produces the `SerializedConfig` the extraction pipeline reads at build time.
+
+One system per application. Every component in the app imports from it.
+
+---
+
+## The ds.ts Pattern
+
+Create a single module — conventionally `src/ds.ts` — that builds and exports the system. The Vite plugin must be able to import this file in isolation to extract the serialized config.
+
+```ts
+// vite.config.ts
+animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' });
+```
+
+The `system` path is resolved relative to the project root. The plugin runs the file in a subprocess and calls `system.toConfig()` on the exported instance. Every export from `ds.ts` that the components reference must be resolvable at build time.
+
+### createSystem
+
+<TypeSignature name="createSystem" params={[]} returns="SystemBuilder" />
+
+Returns a fresh `SystemBuilder` with an empty prop registry, empty group registry, and all built-in selector aliases pre-loaded. This is the entry point — every system starts here.
+
+```ts
+import { createSystem } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+const builder = createSystem();
+```
+
+### SystemBuilder
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="SystemBuilder"
+  generics="PropReg extends Record<string, Prop>, GroupReg extends Record<string, (keyof PropReg)[]>"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="SystemBuilder<PropReg, GroupReg>"
+/>
+
+`SystemBuilder` is a type-state accumulator. Each method call returns a new builder instance with a widened generic — the accumulated prop and group registries are tracked in the type parameters. The final `.build()` bakes these registries into the system instance and the serialized config.
+
+---
+
+## Registering Groups
+
+Groups bundle related props under a single shorthand. A component can receive a group prop and Animus spreads it to the underlying CSS properties. Groups are the primary way to expose style surfaces to consumers.
+
+### addGroup
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="addGroup"
+  params={[
+    { name: 'name', type: 'string' },
+    { name: 'config', type: 'Record<string, Prop>' },
+  ]}
+  returns="SystemBuilder<PropReg & Conf, GroupReg & Record<Name, (keyof Conf)[]>>"
+/>
+
+<ParamTable
+  params={[
+    {
+      name: 'name',
+      type: 'string',
+      default: 'required',
+      desc: 'Group identifier. Must not collide with any already-registered prop name — the builder throws if it does.',
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'config',
+      type: 'Record<string, Prop>',
+      default: 'required',
+      desc: 'Map of prop name to Prop definition. Each entry registers a prop and adds it to this group.',
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+Group names and prop names share a flat namespace. A group named `space` and a prop named `space` cannot coexist. Overlapping props — the same prop name in multiple groups — are allowed if and only if both definitions are identical (same `property`, `scale`, `transform`, `negative`). The builder throws on any divergence.
+
+Pre-built groups are available from `@animus-ui/system/groups`:
+
+```ts
+import {
+  background,
+  border,
+  color,
+  flex,
+  grid,
+  layout,
+  positioning,
+  shadows,
+  space,
+  transitions,
+  typography,
+} from '@animus-ui/system/groups';
+```
+
+Spread pre-built groups into `addGroup` to compose a named surface. Custom props can be added inline alongside the spread:
+
+<CodeExample
+  input={`import { createSystem, createTransform } from '@animus-ui/system';
+import { color, border, shadows, background, flex, grid, layout, space, typography } from '@animus-ui/system/groups';

+const [min, max] = String(value).split('-').map(Number);
+const minRem = min / 16;
+const maxRem = max / 16;
+const slope = ((max - min) / 880) _ 100;
+const intercept = minRem - (slope / 100) _ (480 / 16);
+return \`clamp(\${minRem.toFixed(3)}rem, \${intercept.toFixed(3)}rem + \${slope.toFixed(2)}vw, \${maxRem.toFixed(3)}rem)\`;
+});
+
+export const { system: ds, createGlobalStyles } = createSystem()
+  .addGroup('surface', {
+    ...color,
+    ...border,
+    ...shadows,
+    ...background,
+    ring: { property: 'boxShadow', scale: 'rings' },
+  })
+  .addGroup('arrange', {
+    ...flex,
+    ...grid,

+## Custom Selectors
+
+Selector aliases map `_`-prefixed prop keys in `.states()` calls to CSS selectors. The built-in set covers the LVHA interaction states, ARIA/data-attribute form states, pseudo-elements, and positional selectors.
+
+### addSelectors
+
+<TypeSignature

+      default: 'required',
+      desc: 'Map of alias key (without leading _) to CSS selector string. Comma-separate compound selectors.',
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+Each entry in the map is either an override or a new alias:
+
+- **Override** — an alias key that matches a built-in name replaces the selector string but preserves the original cascade order.
+- **New alias** — an alias key not present in the built-ins receives a cascade order starting at 500, incrementing by 10 per new entry.
+
+Cascade order determines which state rule wins when both apply at equal CSS specificity. Built-in orders follow LVHA convention (link=10, hover=30, focus=50, active=70) through positional selectors (first=400, last=410).
+
+<CodeExample
+  input={`createSystem()

+
+`includes` is a **static-analysis marker** consumed by the extraction pipeline. The Rust/TS analyzer reads the constructor-argument AST, traces each identifier back to its import declaration, resolves the package specifier, and walks the package's source tree for components to extract. Runtime is no-op by design — all work happens at compile time. This is the authoritative mechanism for multi-package design-system composition.
+
+```ts
+import { ds as baseDs } from '@acme/design-system';
+
+export const { system: ds } = createSystem({
+  includes: [baseDs],

+  .addGroup('surface', { ...color, ...border })
+  .build();
+```
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="What includes does not do">

+  registries into this builder. Those registries stay independent. The

+  runtime composition. If you need the external system's prop definitions in

+
+```ts
+export const { system: ds, createGlobalStyles } = createSystem()
+  .addGroup('surface', { ...color })
+  .build();
+```
+
+The `system` return is renamed via destructuring — `ds` is the conventional name. All component authoring calls (`ds.styles()`, `ds.variant()`, etc.) go through this instance.
+
+`createGlobalStyles` is a factory for defining global and reset styles. It accepts a `GlobalStyleMap` — a nested `Record<string, Record<string, any>>` of selector to style object — and returns a `GlobalStyleBlock` that the Vite plugin serializes into `@layer global`.
+
+```ts
+export const globalStyles = createGlobalStyles({
+  '*, *::before, *::after': { boxSizing: 'border-box' },
+  'html, body': { bg: 'bg', color: 'text' },
+  '::-webkit-scrollbar': { width: '3px' },
+  '::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb': { bg: 'scrollbar' },
+});
+```

+  params={[]}
+  returns="Animus<PropReg, GroupReg> & { toConfig(): SerializedConfig }"
+/>
+
+`SystemInstance` is the built system: an `Animus` builder instance extended with `toConfig()`. The builder chain (`ds.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()`, etc.) is available on it. `toConfig()` is called by the Vite plugin subprocess — you do not call it in application code.
+
+The generic parameters carry the full accumulated type state from the builder chain, which powers the prop type narrowing on every component defined with this system.
+
+### SerializedConfig
+
+`system.toConfig()` returns a `SerializedConfig` consumed exclusively by the extraction pipeline:
+
+<ParamTable

+# Theme Extension
+
+Consuming a design system library means you receive a finished theme you cannot modify at the source. This page covers the three mechanisms for extending that theme without touching library code: `.from()` to inherit its token data, `.extendScale()` to append values to existing scales, and module augmentation to surface the extended type in `.styles()`.
+
+---
+
+## The .from() Pattern
+
+`.from()` ingests a built theme and merges its raw token data into the new builder's state. Functions on the source (including `manifest`, `serialize`, and `varRef`) are stripped — only enumerable data keys are carried forward. Emitted scale tracking and contextual variable registrations are copied from the source's manifest.
+
+<MethodCard
+  name="from"
+  description="Selective theme spread. Merges raw data from a built theme into the current builder. Strips all function properties. Copies emittedScales and contextualVars from the source manifest."
+  returnType="ThemeBuilder<T & Source, Emitted>"
+  available="createTheme()"
+  example={
+    <CodeExample
+      input={`import { createTheme } from '@animus-ui/system';
+import { libraryTokens } from '@my-ds/tokens';
+
+// libraryTokens is a BuiltTheme — has breakpoints, colors, space, etc.
+export const tokens = createTheme()
+.from(libraryTokens)
+.addColors({
+brand: '#7C3AED',
+brandLight: '#DDD6FE',
+})
+.build();`}
+      output={`// tokens includes all library scales + new brand colors
+// library's emitted scales are preserved in the type
+// brand and brandLight are added to the colors scale`}
+inputLabel="ds/tokens.ts"
+outputLabel="result"
+/>
+}
+/>
+
+<ParamTable
+  params={[
+    {
+      name: 'builtTheme',
+      type: 'Source extends Record<string, unknown>',
+      default: 'required',
+      desc: 'A built theme returned by .build(). All enumerable non-function properties are deep-merged. The source manifest is read to populate emittedScales and contextualVars.',
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Call order with colors">
+  If the source theme has colors, call `.from()` before `.addColors()`. Both
+  operations write to `emittedScales`. Calling `.from()` first ensures the
+  source's emitted scale registrations are present before your own `addColors()`
+  extends them.
+</Callout>
+
+<Callout
+  variant="info"
+  title="Mode aliases require addColorModes() after from()"
+>
+  `.from()` copies mode data from the source manifest into the merged theme, but
+  if you need to validate new mode aliases against the combined color palette,
+  call `.addColorModes()` after `.from()` and `.addColors()`.
+</Callout>
+
+---
+
+## Extending Scales
+
+`.extendScale()` adds values to a scale that already exists on the builder. The update function receives the current scale object and returns an object whose keys are merged back in. Existing keys are preserved unless the update function overwrites them explicitly.
+
+<MethodCard
+  name="extendScale"
+  description="Appends or overrides values in an existing named scale. The update function receives the current typed scale values and returns additional entries to merge."
+  returnType="ThemeBuilder<Next, Emitted>"

+    <CodeExample
+      input={`import { createTheme } from '@animus-ui/system';
+import { libraryTokens } from '@my-ds/tokens';
+
+export const tokens = createTheme()
+  .from(libraryTokens)
+  // Extend the library's space scale with app-specific values
+  .extendScale('space', (current) => ({

+    display: '3.5rem',
+  }))
+  .build();`}
+      output={`// space scale now includes library values + 72, 96, 128
+// fontSizes scale now includes library values + display
+// TypeScript knows about all extended keys`}
+      inputLabel="ds/tokens.ts"
+      outputLabel="result"
+    />
+  }
+/>
+
+<ParamTable
+  params={[
+    {
+      name: 'key',
+      type: 'keyof T',
+      default: 'required',
+      desc: 'The name of the scale to extend. Must already exist on the builder — via addScale(), addColors(), or from().',
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'updateFn',
+      type: '(tokens: T[Key]) => Record<string | number, unknown>',
+      default: 'required',
+      desc: 'Receives the current typed scale values. Returns the merged result. The return value is deep-merged over the existing scale.',
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="extendScale"
+  generics="Key extends keyof T, Fn extends (tokens: T[Key]) => Record<string | number, unknown>"

+    { name: 'key', type: 'Key' },
+    { name: 'updateFn', type: 'Fn' },
+  ]}
+  returns="ThemeBuilder<T & Record<Key, T[Key] & ReturnType<Fn>>, Emitted>"
+/>
+
+The return type intersects the existing scale type with the update function's return type. TypeScript sees all original keys plus the new ones. Spread the current values in the update function to preserve them — returning only new keys will type-check but the runtime merge operates over both.
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Scale must exist">
+  Calling `.extendScale()` with a key that does not exist on the current builder
+  is a type error. If you are extending a library scale that arrives via
+  `.from()`, the scale exists in the type state and TypeScript accepts it. If
+  the scale is not yet on the builder, call `.addScale()` first.
+</Callout>
+
+---
+
+## Type Augmentation
+
+The `Theme` interface in `@animus-ui/system` is an empty, augmentable interface. When you extend it with your built theme's type, `.styles()`, `.variant()`, and `.states()` gain typed autocomplete for your scale keys.
+
+```ts
+// ds.ts — after building tokens
+
+export type AppTheme = typeof tokens;
+
+declare module '@animus-ui/system' {
+  // eslint-disable-next-line @typescript-eslint/no-empty-interface
+  interface Theme extends AppTheme {}
+}
+```
+
+With augmentation in place:
+
+```tsx
+// fontSize accepts only your fontSizes scale keys
+ds.styles({ fontSize: 'display' }); // ✓
+
+// color accepts only your colors scale keys
+ds.styles({ color: 'brand' }); // ✓
+
+// unknown keys are type errors
+ds.styles({ fontSize: 'unknown' }); // ✗ — not in your fontSizes scale
+```
+
+`typeof tokens` is the built theme type returned by `.build()`. The `BuiltTheme` shape attaches `manifest`, `serialize`, and `varRef` as non-enumerable phantom properties — they do not participate in augmentation. Only the scale data (colors, space, fontSizes, etc.) enters the `Theme` interface.
+
+### Theme interface
+
+<TypeSignature name="Theme" params={[]} returns="interface (augmentable)" />
+
+`Theme` extends `BaseTheme`, which carries an open index signature. This allows module augmentation to provide a concrete `breakpoints` type without conflicting with a fixed interface shape.
+
+When `Theme` is not augmented, CSS property values fall back to standard CSS types. When augmented, scale-mapped props (e.g., `fontSize`, `color`, `padding`) narrow to the literal keys present in your theme scales.
+
+---
+
+## Theme Merge Semantics
+
+`.from()` and `.extendScale()` both call the internal `merge()` utility, which implements the same semantics exposed through the public type utilities. Understanding the merge rules explains when extension is safe and when values are replaced wholesale.
+
+### MergeTheme
+
+`MergeTheme<Base, Next>` is the type-level contract for theme extension. It preserves `breakpoints` from `Base` unconditionally (breakpoints cannot be overridden by extension) and delegates everything else to `Merge<Base, Next>`.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="MergeTheme"
+  generics="Base extends AbstractTheme, Next, Unmergable = Record<'breakpoints', Base['breakpoints']>"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="Unmergable & Merge<Base, Next>"
+/>
+
+<APIBlock>
+  <ParamTable
+    params={[
+      {
+        name: 'Base',
+        type: 'AbstractTheme',
+        default: 'required',
+        desc: 'The source theme. Its breakpoints type is locked into the Unmergable slot and cannot be displaced by Next.',
+      },
+      {
+        name: 'Next',
+        type: 'unknown',
+        default: 'required',
+        desc: 'The incoming data being merged. Plain object values at depth 1 and depth 2 are deep-merged; everything else is assigned.',
+      },
+      {
+        name: 'Unmergable',
+        type: 'Record<"breakpoints", Base["breakpoints"]>',
+        default: 'auto',
+        desc: 'Keys excluded from the merge and taken directly from Base. Defaults to the breakpoints record.',
+      },
+    ]}
+  />
+</APIBlock>
+
+### Merge
+
+`Merge<A, B>` operates at two levels of depth. For every key in the union of `A` and `B`:
+
+- Key in both: apply `AssignValueIfUnmergable<A[K], B[K]>` — may recurse one more level if both sides are plain objects
+- Key in `B` only: use `B[K]`
+- Key in `A` only: use `A[K]`
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="Merge"
+  generics="A, B"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="{ [K in keyof (A & B)]: ... }"
+/>
+
+### Mergable
+
+`Mergable<T>` extracts the subset of `T` that qualifies for deep merging. Functions, strings, booleans, symbols, numbers, and arrays are all excluded. Only plain objects pass through.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="Mergable"
+  generics="T"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="Exclude<T, ((...args: any) => any) | string | boolean | symbol | number | any[]>"
+/>
+
+The runtime consequence: a scale value that is a function, array, or primitive is always replaced by the incoming value — it is never merged into. Only nested `Record<string, unknown>` objects trigger the two-level deep merge.
+
+### AssignValueIfUnmergable
+
+`AssignValueIfUnmergable<A, B>` is the decision point for shared keys. If either side strips down to `never` after passing through `Mergable`, it assigns `B` directly. If both sides are mergable plain objects, it delegates to `Assign<A, B>`.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="AssignValueIfUnmergable"
+  generics="A, B"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="Mergable<A> extends never ? B : Mergable<B> extends never ? B : Assign<A, B>"
+/>
+
+### Assign
+
+`Assign<A, B>` gives `B` priority for shared keys while preserving `A`-only keys. This is the final step in the merge — it produces the flat shape for depth-2 objects.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="Assign"
+  generics="A, B"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="{ [K in keyof A | keyof B]: K extends keyof B ? B[K] : K extends keyof A ? A[K] : never }"
+/>
+
+### PrivateThemeKeys
+
+`PrivateThemeKeys` names the two internal slots on a built theme that should not be accessed directly. They are loosely typed because they are consumed by the pipeline, not by application code.
+
+<TypeSignature

+# Theming & Tokens
+
+The theme builder converts nested token definitions into a serialized contract that the Rust extraction crate reads at build time. Each token becomes a CSS custom property. The chain enforces definition order at the type level — you cannot call `addScale` before `addBreakpoints` because the type state won't permit it.
+
+## The Theme Builder Chain
+
+`createTheme()` returns a fresh `ThemeBuilder`. The chain is a sequence of steps, each returning a new builder instance with an accumulated type state. Call `build()` to finalize.
+

+

+  ]}
+/>
+
+Calling `addScale` is repeatable — chain it multiple times to add additional scales. The `Emitted` generic accumulates the scale name only when `emit: true`.
+
+---
+
+## Scale Definition & Emission
+
+Not all scales produce CSS variables. The distinction is tracked by the `Emitted` generic parameter, which accumulates through the chain and powers type-level token ref validation.
+
+| Call                            | Emits CSS variables?                   |
+| ------------------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
+| `addColors({ ... })`            | Always — every key becomes `--color-*` |
+| `addScale({ ..., emit: true })` | Yes — every key becomes `--{name}-*`   |
+| `addScale({ ... })`             | No — raw values only, no variables     |
+
+When a scale is not emitted, its tokens resolve to their raw values at extraction time. When emitted, tokens resolve to `var(--{scale}-{key})` — the CSS variable reference is embedded in the generated class, not the value itself.
+
+<CodeExample
+  input={`createTheme()
+  .addBreakpoints({ sm: 768, lg: 1280 })

+    values: { 4: '0.25rem', 8: '0.5rem', 16: '1rem' },
+    emit: true,
+  })
+  .addScale({
+    name: 'fontSizes',
+    values: { sm: '0.875rem', base: '1rem' },

+
+### Phantom Scale Types
+
+When a scale consists of open-ended values — numeric IDs or arbitrary strings — use the helper factories to constrain what the type system accepts for `values`:
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="createScale"
+  generics="T extends string | number"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="readonly T[]"
+/>
+
+`createScale<T>()` is a phantom type factory. It returns an empty array at runtime and is discarded after the type is inferred. Use it to declare a scale that accepts a specific literal union.
+
+```ts
+import { createScale } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+// Constrains the scale to accept only these exact keys
+const radiusScale = createScale<'none' | 'sm' | 'full'>();
+```
+
+The three pre-built open scale variants accept any value of their respective type:
+
+| Export                                                         | Accepts                            |
+| -------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
+| <TokenBadge variant="method">numericScale</TokenBadge>         | `number & {}` — any number         |
+| <TokenBadge variant="method">stringScale</TokenBadge>          | `string & {}` — any string         |
+| <TokenBadge variant="method">numericOrStringScale</TokenBadge> | `(string \| number) & {}` — either |
+
+```ts
+import { numericScale, stringScale } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+createTheme()
+  .addBreakpoints({ sm: 768 })
+  .addScale({ name: 'zIndex', values: numericScale, emit: false })
+  .addScale({ name: 'easing', values: stringScale, emit: false });
+```
+
+### Type Utilities for Emitted Scales
+
+<APIBlock>
+  <ParamTable
+    params={[
+      {
+        name: 'EmittedScales<T>',
+        type: 'string',
+        default: '—',
+        desc: 'Union of scale names that were emitted with CSS variables in theme T. Reads the __emitted phantom tuple from BuiltTheme.',
+      },
+      {
+        name: 'EmittedTokenPaths<T>',
+        type: 'string',
+        default: '—',
+        desc: 'All valid dot-path token refs for emitted scales: "colors.ember" | "space.8" | ...',
+      },
+      {
+        name: 'TokenScales<T>',
+        type: 'object',
+        default: '—',
+        desc: 'Strips structural keys (breakpoints, modes, mode) from T, leaving only user-defined scales.',
+      },
+    ]}
+  />
+</APIBlock>
+
+These types are consumed internally by the system builder to validate `{scale.key}` references in `.styles()`, `.variant()`, and `.states()` calls. You rarely use them directly — but they explain why the type error tells you `"fontSizes.xl"` is invalid when `fontSizes` is not emitted.
+
+---
+
+## Token Path Syntax
+
+Tokens appear in two syntactic forms depending on context.
+
+### Bare keys — typed props
+
+When a prop has a known scale binding (e.g., `fontSize` → `fontSizes`), pass the bare key:
+
+```tsx
+ds.styles({
+  fontSize: 'sm', // ✓ bare key — typed against fontSizes scale
+  color: 'ember', // ✓ bare key — typed against colors scale
+  space: 4, // ✓ numeric bare key — typed against space scale
+});
+```
+
+The system resolves `'sm'` to `var(--fontSize-sm)` (if emitted) or `'0.875rem'` (if raw) at extraction time.
+
+### Template syntax — untyped contexts
+
+When assigning to an arbitrary CSS property or custom property, use the `{scale.key}` template:
+
+```tsx
+ds.styles({
+  boxShadow: '0 0 12px {colors.ember/40}', // ✓ template in untyped context
+  '--current-surface': '{colors.gray.900}', // ✓ template for custom property
+});
+```
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="Opacity modifier">
+  Append `/{alpha}` to any color token ref to apply transparency via
+  `color-mix`. `{colors.ember / 40}` resolves to `color-mix(in srgb,
+  var(--color-ember) 40%, transparent)`. Alpha of `0` collapses to
+  `transparent`; `100` passes through unchanged.
+</Callout>
+
+Both forms resolve to the same CSS variable when the scale is emitted. The distinction is purely about what the type system knows at the call site.
+
+### ColorTokenRef and ScaleTokenRef
+
+<APIBlock>
+  <ParamTable
+    params={[
+      {
+        name: 'ColorTokenRef',
+        type: 'template literal',
+        default: '—',
+        desc: 'Template literal type for {colors.key} and {colors.key/alpha} patterns. Computed from the augmented Theme interface.',
+      },
+      {
+        name: 'ScaleTokenRef<E>',
+        type: 'template literal',
+        default: '—',
+        desc: 'Constrains {scale.key} where scale is limited to the emitted scale names E.',
+      },
+    ]}
+  />
+</APIBlock>
+
+`ColorTokenRef` is a computed type. When you augment the `Theme` interface, `ColorTokenRef` narrows to only the keys present in your `colors` scale:
+
+```ts
+// ColorTokenRef with augmented theme:
+// '{colors.ember}' | '{colors.ember/number}' | '{colors.gray.50}' | ...
+
+const ref: ColorTokenRef = '{colors.ember/80}'; // ✓
+const bad: ColorTokenRef = '{colors.unknown}'; // ✗ — type error
+```
+
+`ScaleTokenRef<E>` is a looser pattern — it permits any dot-path under the given scale union without enumerating keys. Used internally by style props that accept cross-scale references.
+
+---
+
+## Serialization Contract
+
+Calling `.build()` finalizes the theme and returns a `BuiltTheme`. Three non-enumerable properties are attached via `Object.defineProperty` — they do not appear in iteration but are accessible by name:
+
+| Property            | Description                                                        |
+| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| `manifest`          | Structured in-memory manifest. Consumed by the Vite plugin.        |
+| `serialize()`       | Returns `SerializedTheme` — JSON strings for pipeline consumption. |
+| `varRef(tokenPath)` | Resolves a dot-path token to its `var()` reference string.         |
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Non-enumerable">
+  `manifest`, `serialize`, and `varRef` are attached as non-enumerable,
+  non-configurable, non-writable properties on the built theme object. They do
+  not appear in `Object.keys()`, `JSON.stringify()`, or spread operations.
+  Access them directly by name.
+</Callout>
+
+### SerializedTheme
+
+`tokens.serialize()` produces the four fields consumed by the extraction pipeline:
+
+<APIBlock>
+  <ParamTable
+    params={[
+      {
+        name: 'scalesJson',
+        type: 'string (JSON)',
+        default: '—',
+        desc: 'Flattened token map. "space.8" → "0.5rem", "breakpoints.sm" → "768". Consumed by Rust theme_resolver to substitute bare scale key references.',
+      },
+      {
+        name: 'variableMapJson',
+        type: 'string (JSON)',
+        default: '—',
+        desc: 'Token path → CSS variable name without var() wrapper. "colors.ember" → "--color-ember". Consumed by Rust for {scale.key} token alias resolution.',
+      },
+      {
+        name: 'variableCss',
+        type: 'string (CSS)',
+        default: '—',
+        desc: 'Pre-built :root { --color-*: ... } block plus [data-color-mode] override blocks for each registered mode. Injected into virtual:animus/styles.css by the Vite plugin.',
+      },
+      {
+        name: 'contextualVarsJson',
+        type: 'string (JSON)',
+        default: '—',
+        desc: 'Per-scale registry of contextual variable names. Consumed by Rust contextual resolution for runtime-resolved CSS variables.',
+      },
+    ]}
+  />
+</APIBlock>
+
+The Vite plugin calls `tokens.serialize()` once during `buildStart`. The Rust crate receives `scalesJson` and `variableMapJson` as inputs to its resolver. `variableCss` is injected verbatim into the virtual CSS module.
+
+### manifest
+
+`tokens.manifest` is the unserialized form of the same data:
+
+<APIBlock>
+  <ParamTable
+    params={[
+      {
+        name: 'tokenMap',
+        type: 'Record<string, string>',
+        default: '—',
+        desc: 'Flat dot-path → resolved value. Emitted scales carry var() references; raw scales carry raw values.',
+      },
+      {
+        name: 'variableMap',
+        type: 'Record<string, string>',
+        default: '—',
+        desc: 'Dot-path → CSS variable name (without var() wrapper) for emitted tokens only.',
+      },
+      {
+        name: 'modes',
+        type: 'Record<string, Record<string, string>>',
+        default: '—',
+        desc: "Mode name → flat token map for that mode's alias overrides. Populated by addColorModes().",
+      },
+      {
+        name: 'variableCss',
+        type: 'string',
+        default: '—',
+        desc: ':root and [data-color-mode] CSS blocks, pre-built.',
+      },
+      {
+        name: 'contextualVars',
+        type: 'Record<string, string[]> | undefined',
+        default: 'undefined',
+        desc: 'Scale name → array of contextual var names. Present only when declareContextualVars() was called.',
+      },
+    ]}
+  />
+</APIBlock>
+
+### varRef
+
+`tokens.varRef(tokenPath)` resolves a dot-path token at runtime, useful for reading theme values in application code:
+
+```ts
+const built = createTheme()
+  .addBreakpoints({ sm: 768 })
+  .addColors({ ember: '#FF2800' })
+  .addScale({ name: 'space', values: { 8: '0.5rem' }, emit: true })
+  .build();
+
+built.varRef('colors.ember'); // → 'var(--color-ember)'
+built.varRef('space.8'); // → 'var(--space-8)'
+built.varRef('fontSizes.sm'); // → '0.875rem' (raw — not emitted)
+built.varRef('colors.missing'); // → undefined
+```
+
+For emitted scales, `varRef` returns the `var()` reference string. For non-emitted scales, it returns the raw string value. Returns `undefined` if the path does not exist.
+
+---
+
+## Contextual Variables
+
+Contextual variables solve a specific problem: style values that must be set dynamically at runtime (e.g., a component's current background color as a CSS variable for a child to read) but whose names the extraction crate needs to know in advance.
+
+<MethodCard
+  name="declareContextualVars"

+      desc: 'Map of scale name to array of contextual variable names. Scale must already exist (addColors or addScale must have been called for that scale).',
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+`declareContextualVars` performs a phantom type merge — the declared names are added to the scale type as <code>{'Record<name, `var(--${string})`>'}</code> so they appear as valid typed keys in `.styles()` calls. No runtime data is added to the theme object.
+
+The names are serialized in `contextualVarsJson` and consumed by the Rust crate to allow `{colors.bg-current}` template references in extracted components, where the actual variable value is set by the consuming component at render time.
+
+<Callout variant="info">
+  The scale must exist before you call `declareContextualVars` — passing an undeclared scale name throws at build time. The constraint is enforced at the type level: `Vars` is typed as `Partial<{ [K in keyof T]: ... }>`, so TypeScript rejects unknown scale names.

+# Base Styling
+
+`ds.styles()` is the first method in the builder chain. It defines the foundation CSS for a component — the rules emitted into `@layer base`, the lowest-specificity layer in the cascade.
+
+The method accepts a config object whose keys are either system prop names or CSS property names, and whose values are constrained by your theme's token scales. At build time the Rust extractor walks this config, resolves every token reference against the serialized theme, and emits static CSS class rules. At runtime, the component maps to those pre-computed class names — no style computation happens in the browser.

+## ds.styles() — The Entry Point
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="styles"
+  generics="Props extends AbstractProps"
+  params={[{ name: 'config', type: 'ThemedCSSProps<Props, PropRegistry>' }]}
+  returns="AnimusWithBase"
+/>
+
+`styles()` takes a `ThemedCSSProps` config and returns the next stage in the builder chain. The return type is `AnimusWithBase`, which exposes `.variant()` as the next callable method. Calling `.styles()` a second time is not possible — the type-state machine removes it from the chain after first use.
+
+### ThemedCSSProps
+
+```ts
+type ThemedCSSProps<Props, Config extends Record<string, Prop>> = {
+  [K in keyof Props]?: K extends keyof Config
+    ? ThemedScale<Config[K]>
+    : K extends keyof PropertyTypes
+      ? PropertyTypes[K]
+      : Omit<PropertyTypes, keyof Config> & {
+          [P in keyof Config]?: ThemedScale<Config[P]>;
+        };
+};
+```
+
+Each key in the config resolves its value type based on precedence:
+
+1. **System prop** (in `Config`) — value is constrained to the prop's scale keys, including responsive variants and the `{colors.key/opacity}` syntax for color props.
+2. **CSS property** (in `PropertyTypes`) — value is the standard CSS type for that property.
+3. **Nested selector key** — value is a recursive style object accepting both system props and CSS properties.
+
+`ThemedCSSProps` uses the augmentable `Theme` interface rather than a generic `T`. When you augment `Theme` via `declare module`, every `.styles()` call in your project gains typed scale lookups automatically.
+
+### Theme augmentation
+
+```ts
+declare module '@animus-ui/system' {
+  interface Theme extends ShowcaseTheme {}
+}
+```
+
+This single declaration makes all token scale keys available as typed values across all system props. Without it, props fall back to standard CSS property types.
+
+The two related types `AbstractTheme` and `BaseTheme` represent the structural minimum:
+
+```ts
+// BaseTheme: the augmentable baseline — empty by default
+interface BaseTheme {}
+
+// AbstractTheme: the runtime shape — breakpoints required, open index
+interface AbstractTheme extends BaseTheme {
+  breakpoints: Record<string, number>;
+  readonly [key: string]: any;
+}
+```
+
+`AbstractTheme` is what the runtime parser accepts. `BaseTheme` is what you extend via module augmentation. The concrete `Theme` interface bridges the two — its shape flows into `ThemedCSSProps` to produce typed style configs.
+
+### Basic example
+
+<CodeExample
+  inputLabel="source"
+  outputLabel="extracted CSS"
+  input={`const Card = ds.styles({
+  display: 'flex',
+  flexDirection: 'column',
+  bg: 'surface',
+  color: 'text',
+  p: 24,
+  borderRadius: '8px',
+  border: 1,
+  borderColor: 'border',
+}).asElement('div')`}
+  output={`.animus-Card-a1b2 {
+  display: flex;
+  flex-direction: column;
+  background-color: var(--colors-surface);
+  color: var(--colors-text);
+  padding: 1.5rem;
+  border-radius: 8px;
+  border: 1px solid;
+  border-color: var(--colors-border);
+}`}
+/>
+
+### Token references
+
+Themed scale props accept bare scale keys — the short form that the type system resolves to a CSS variable at extraction time.
+
+```tsx
+// Bare scale keys — typed, extracted to CSS variables
+ds.styles({
+  color: 'primary', // → var(--colors-primary)
+  fontFamily: 'mono', // → var(--fonts-mono)
+  fontSize: 14, // → 0.875rem (fontSizes scale)
+  p: 16, // → 1rem (space scale)
+});
+```
+
+For color props, the `{colors.key/opacity}` syntax produces a color-mix or variable with alpha channel at extraction time:
+
+```tsx
+ds.styles({
+  bg: '{colors.primary/8}', // → background with 8% opacity
+  boxShadow: '0 0 8px {colors.glow/40}', // → token ref inside a value string
+});
+```
+
+Do not use hex or rgba literals. Token refs are the contract — they shift automatically across color modes.
+
+---
+
+## Responsive Values
+
+Any system prop value can be made responsive by replacing the scalar value with a `MediaQueryMap` or (for array-syntax convenience) its variant.
+
+### MediaQueryMap
+
+```ts
+interface MediaQueryMap<T> {
+  _?: T; // base styles — no media query wrapping
+  [key: string]: T | undefined; // breakpoint keys from your theme
+}
+
+type ResponsiveProp<T> = T | MediaQueryMap<T>;
+```
+
+The `_` key emits styles without any media query. Named keys must match breakpoints defined in your theme's `addBreakpoints()` call. Animus emits min-width media queries in the order breakpoints are declared — mobile-first.
+
+Breakpoints in the showcase theme: `2xs` (400px), `xs` (480px), `sm` (768px), `md` (1024px), `lg` (1200px), `xl` (1440px).
+
+<CodeExample
+  inputLabel="source"
+  outputLabel="extracted CSS"
+  input={`const Container = ds.styles({
+  px: { _: 16, sm: 32, lg: 64 },
+  fontSize: { _: 14, md: 16 },
+  display: 'flex',
+  flexDirection: { _: 'column', sm: 'row' },
+}).asElement('div')`}
+  output={`.animus-Container-b3c4 {
+  padding-inline: 1rem;
+  font-size: 0.875rem;
+  display: flex;
+  flex-direction: column;
+}
+
+@media (min-width: 768px) {
+.animus-Container-b3c4 {
+padding-inline: 2rem;
+flex-direction: row;
+}
+}
+
+@media (min-width: 1024px) {
+.animus-Container-b3c4 {
+font-size: 1rem;
+}
+}
+
+@media (min-width: 1200px) {
+.animus-Container-b3c4 {
+padding-inline: 4rem;
+}
+}`}
+/>
+
+Responsive values still follow the static-literal constraint. The breakpoint keys and values must both be static strings — no computed breakpoint names, no runtime-derived values.
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="Variant props vs. responsive values">
+  Variant props (`size`, `intent`) are always static strings — they cannot be
+  responsive arrays. Responsive values belong on CSS properties or system props,
+  not on component variant selectors. See [Variants &
+  States](/docs/authoring/variants-states) for the distinction.
+</Callout>
+
+---
+
+## Selector Nesting in Styles
+
+Style objects accept nested keys as selectors. Two forms are supported: selector alias props and raw CSS selector strings.
+
+### SelectorAliasProps
+
+```ts
+type BuiltInSelectorAlias =
+  | '_hover'
+  | '_focus'
+  | '_focusVisible'
+  | '_focusWithin'
+  | '_active'
+  | '_disabled'
+  | '_checked'
+  | '_invalid'
+  | '_before'
+  | '_after'
+  | '_placeholder'
+  | '_selection'
+  | '_first'
+  | '_last'
+  | '_even'
+  | '_odd'
+  | '_empty'
+  | '_link'
+  | '_visited'
+  | '_target'
+  | '_readOnly'
+  | '_expanded'
+  | '_selected'
+  | '_pressed';
+
+type SelectorAliasProps<GroupPropValues> = {
+  [K in BuiltInSelectorAlias]?: Partial<GroupPropValues>;
+};
+```
+
+Each alias maps to one or more CSS selectors. `_hover` → `&:hover`. `_disabled` → `&:disabled, &[disabled], &[aria-disabled="true"], &[data-disabled]`. The multi-selector form covers native HTML, ARIA attributes, and data attributes in one declaration.
+
+Alias order is deterministic: aliases are emitted in cascade order so that `_disabled` always overrides interaction states like `_hover` when specificity is equal.
+
+Selector alias props are typed — their values accept the same system prop keys as the top-level config, constrained to the same scales.
+
+```tsx
+const Button = ds
+  .styles({
+    bg: 'primary',
+    color: 'bg',
+    _hover: {
+      bg: 'secondary',
+    },
+    _focusVisible: {
+      outline: '2px solid',
+      outlineColor: 'primary',
+      outlineOffset: '2px',
+    },
+    _disabled: {
+      opacity: '0.4',
+      cursor: 'not-allowed',
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('button');
+```
+
+### Raw CSS selectors
+
+Any string key that does not match a system prop or a built-in alias is treated as a raw CSS selector. This enables child selectors, attribute selectors, and any nesting form CSS supports.
+
+```tsx
+const NavList = ds
+  .styles({
+    listStyle: 'none',
+    m: 0,
+    p: 0,
+    '& > li': {
+      borderBottom: 1,
+      borderColor: 'border',
+    },
+    '& > li:last-child': {
+      borderBottom: 0,
+    },
+    '&[data-variant="compact"] li': {
+      py: 4,
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('ul');
+```
+
+The extractor handles both selector alias keys and raw selector strings. Both are valid in `.styles()`, `.variant()`, and `.states()` configs.
+
+<Callout variant="info">
+  Selector aliases are also available as component props (e.g. `_hover=
+  {{ color: 'primary' }}`) when `.system()` includes the group that defines
+  them. Style-object nesting in `.styles()` is distinct from prop-time selector
+  overrides. See [Selectors & Nesting](/docs/authoring/selectors) for the full
+  model.
+</Callout>
+
+---
+
+## CSS Object Shape
+
+The `CSSObject` type defines the recursive structure that Animus uses for style objects throughout the API.
+
+### CSSObject
+
+```ts
+interface CSSObject {
+  [key: string]: string | number | CSSObject | undefined;
+}
+```
+
+Three value types are permitted:
+
+- **`string`** — emitted as a CSS declaration value verbatim (after token resolution).
+- **`number`** — for length properties (those that accept pixel values), numbers are treated as pixel values. `padding: 16` → `padding: 16px`. For unitless properties like `opacity`, `zIndex`, or `lineHeight`, numbers are emitted as-is.
+- **`CSSObject`** — a nested object. The key becomes the selector; the nested object's keys and values become declarations within that selector.
+
+`CSSObject` is the return type of transform functions and the input type for global styles. It is the shared structural contract across the entire Animus style system.
+
+```tsx
+// All three value forms in one config
+const Example = ds.styles({
+  opacity: 1, // number → unitless, emitted as '1'
+  zIndex: 10, // number → unitless, emitted as '10'
+  padding: 16, // number → length, emitted as '16px'
+  color: 'text', // string → token ref → var(--colors-text)
+  fontWeight: '700', // string → verbatim CSS value
+  '&:hover': {
+    // CSSObject → nested selector
+    color: 'primary',
+    opacity: 0.9,
+  },
+});
+```
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="Nesting depth">
+  There is no enforced depth limit on nested `CSSObject` structures, but deeply
+  nested selectors increase specificity and can produce CSS that is harder to
+  override. Prefer selector aliases for interactive states, raw selectors for
+  structural targeting.

+# Composition
+
+`compose()` takes independently-authored Animus components and assembles them into a sealed, namespaced component family with shared variant propagation. The primary use case is multi-slot UI patterns where visual properties must stay coordinated across sibling DOM elements — a Card's header, body, and footer responding to the same `density` prop, or a Dialog's overlay and content responding to the same `intent`.
+
+The two things composition gives you that manual prop threading does not:
+
+- **CSS cascade as the propagation channel.** Shared variant values flow through CSS descendant selectors, not prop drilling. The parent slot sets the value once; child slots inherit it automatically.
+- **Type-validated coordination contract.** TypeScript enforces that every key in `shared` exists on Root's variant config. Mismatches are build errors, not runtime surprises.
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Static values only">
+  All style values inside `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.states()`, and

+
+`slots` is a record of PascalCase names to Animus components. **One key must be exactly `"Root"` (case-sensitive).** If `"Root"` is absent, `compose()` throws at module evaluation time — not at render time.
+
+`options.name` sets the family display name prefix. Each slot's `displayName` becomes `"FamilyName.SlotName"`. This appears in React DevTools and error boundaries.
+
+`options.shared` declares which of Root's variant keys propagate to child slots via CSS.
+
+`options.context` defaults to `false`. When `false`, propagation is CSS-only and no React hooks are added to any wrapper. When `true`, Root provides shared variant values via React context and children consume it — necessary for portaled slots that escape the DOM tree (Modal, Tooltip, Popover content).

+  <Card.Header>Title</Card.Header>
+  <Card.Body>Content here</Card.Body>
+</Card.Root>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Shared Variant Propagation
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="SharedConfig"
+  generics="Slots extends Record<string, unknown>"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="{ [K in RootVariantKeys<Slots>]?: true }"
+/>
+
+`SharedConfig<Slots>` is a mapped type over the variant keys of the `Root` slot. Only keys that exist in Root's `.variant()` config are valid. Setting a key to `true` marks it for propagation.
+
+**What "shared" actually means in CSS:** The extractor emits descendant selectors pairing Root's `data-*` attribute with each child slot's class. This means sharing works via DOM ancestry — child slots must be descendants of Root in the rendered HTML. For portaled slots (rendered outside the DOM tree via `ReactDOM.createPortal`), CSS descendant selectors cannot reach them. Use `context: true` for those cases.
+
+**Overriding shared values on a child:** A prop passed directly to a child slot overrides the inherited value. The extractor emits a second selector per shared value — a direct `[data-*]` selector on the child class — which takes precedence in the cascade over the descendant selector.
+
+```tsx
+// density="sm" on Root propagates to Header and Body via CSS
+// density="lg" on Body overrides the inherited value for Body only
+<Card.Root density="sm">
+  <Card.Header>Compact header</Card.Header>
+  <Card.Body density="lg">Spacious body</Card.Body>
+</Card.Root>
+```
+
+**Child slots without the shared variant:** If a child slot's component does not have `density` in its own `.variant()` config, it simply doesn't receive styled output for that shared key. There is no error. The shared config only declares which keys Root controls — it does not require every slot to participate.
+
+### What the extractor does
+
+The Rust extraction pipeline reads `options.shared` at build time (from `jsx_scanner.rs`). For each shared key and each variant value in Root's config, it emits:
+
+1. A descendant selector: `.CardRoot[data-density="sm"] .CardHeader { ... }` — applies when Root carries the variant
+2. A direct selector: `.CardHeader[data-density="sm"] { ... }` — applies when Body carries it directly (override wins due to specificity)
+
+No JavaScript computes these relationships at render time. The extractor does the work once.
+

+
+## Slot Component Behavior
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="ComposedFamily"
+  generics="Slots extends Record<string, unknown>"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="{ [K in keyof Slots]: ForwardRefExoticComponent<SealedProps<Slots[K]>> }"
+/>
+
+Every slot in `ComposedFamily<Slots>` is a `ForwardRefExoticComponent` wrapping the original Animus component. The wrapper's responsibility depends on the slot's role and whether `context: true` was specified.
+
+### Root slot behavior
+
+- Accepts all props that the original Root component accepts (including shared variant keys)
+- When `context: true`: extracts shared prop values and injects a context Provider inside its rendered output, wrapping `props.children`. The Provider is placed _inside_ Root's rendered element so portaled React children remain within the React tree and receive the context.
+- `displayName` is set to `"FamilyName.Root"`
+
+### Child slot behavior
+
+- Accepts all props that the original child component accepts (including the shared variant keys, for overrides)
+- When `context: true`: reads the family context and merges inherited values under its own direct props — `{ ...inherited, ...ownProps }`. Direct props always win.
+- When `context: false` (default): thin wrapper with no hooks, no context reads. Propagation is CSS-only.
+- `displayName` is set to `"FamilyName.SlotName"`
+
+### AnyBrandedComponent
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="AnyBrandedComponent"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="ForwardRefExoticComponent<any> & { readonly [ConsumerProps]: unknown; readonly [VariantConfigBrand]: unknown; extend: () => unknown }"
+/>
+
+`AnyBrandedComponent` is the structural constraint that `compose()` enforces on every slot value. It extends `ForwardRefExoticComponent<any>` for `createElement` compatibility, plus two phantom brands: `ConsumerProps` and `VariantConfigBrand`.
+
+These brands are `unique symbol` declarations — they carry pre-computed type information on the component type without adding runtime overhead. `ConsumerProps` carries the sealed consumer-facing props for a slot. `VariantConfigBrand` carries the raw variant config shape used by `VariantPropsOf` and `SharedConfig` extraction.
+
+Using `any` as the generic parameter on `ForwardRefExoticComponent` is deliberate: fully expanding the 8-generic `AnimusComponent` intersection at the slot constraint level causes TS2590 ("union type too complex") in projects with large prop registries. `AnyBrandedComponent` avoids that expansion by widening the component's prop parameter while still preserving type access via the brands.
+
+### ConsumerProps and VariantConfigBrand
+
+`ConsumerProps` and `VariantConfigBrand` are phantom brands — `declare const` unique symbols with no runtime value. They exist purely at the type level.
+
+- `ConsumerProps` — carries the sealed consumer props (`SealedProps<Slots[K]>`) computed once at definition time. `ComposedFamily` reads this brand via direct indexed access (`C[typeof ConsumerProps]`) rather than inferring through `ForwardRefExoticComponent<infer P>`. Direct indexed access avoids conditional inference overhead.
+- `VariantConfigBrand` — carries the raw variant config object (`V`). `SharedConfig` and `VariantPropsOf` both read from this brand to extract variant keys without traversing the full class hierarchy.

+
+## Extension vs Composition
+
+`.extend()` and `compose()` solve different problems.
+
+|                   | `.extend()`                             | `compose()`                               |
+| ----------------- | --------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
+| Purpose           | Specialized variant of one component    | Coordinated family of related slots       |
+| Output            | New Animus builder (then terminal)      | Sealed `ForwardRefExoticComponent` record |
+| Cross-file        | Works — extraction follows import graph | N/A — compose() is a runtime call         |
+| Further extension | Chain continues                         | Sealed — no `.extend()`                   |
+| Use when          | BaseButton → PrimaryButton, IconButton  | Card/Header/Body, Dialog/Overlay/Content  |
+
+### .extend()
+
+`.extend()` is available on `AnimusWithAll` — the type returned after all builder methods, immediately before a terminal call (`.asElement()`, `.asComponent()`, `.asClass()`). It also attaches directly to the terminal component output.
+
+```tsx
+const BaseButton = ds
+  .styles({
+    display: 'inline-flex',
+    alignItems: 'center',
+    cursor: 'pointer',
+    fontWeight: 600,
+  })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'size',
+    defaultVariant: 'md',
+    variants: {
+      sm: { fontSize: 14, px: 12, py: 4 },
+      md: { fontSize: 16, px: 16, py: 8 },
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('button');
+
+// Extend to create a specialized variant
+const PrimaryButton = BaseButton.extend()
+  .styles({ bg: 'primary', color: 'bg', borderRadius: '6px' })
+  .asElement('button');
+
+// PrimaryButton inherits BaseButton's base styles and size variants
+// and adds its own base styles on top
+```
+
+`.extend()` starts a fresh `AnimusExtended` chain that inherits the parent's prop registry, base styles, variants, states, groups, and custom props. The chain can add new layers on top of any of these.
+
+**Cross-file and cross-package extension** works when the extractor can trace the import graph back to the original builder chain. Extraction requires access to the source file where `.styles()` was first called. Components published as compiled artifacts without source cannot be extended via the extractor.
+
+### compose() is not extend()
+
+Do not reach for `compose()` to add styles to a single component. Composition creates a new coordination unit from multiple pre-authored components — it does not enhance one component's style output. If the relationship is "same element, more styles", use `.extend()`. If the relationship is "sibling DOM elements that must respond to a shared prop", use `compose()`.
+
+---
+
+## Working Around Sealed Output
+
+Composed components have no `.extend()`. Three escape hatches cover the common cases.
+
+### asChild — render as a different element
+
+All Animus slot components accept `asChild`. This delegates rendering to the immediate child element, merging the slot's props (className, data attributes) onto it. The slot's styles apply; the HTML element comes from the child.
+
+```tsx
+// Card.Body renders as an <article> instead of its default <div>
+<Card.Body asChild>
+  <article>Content inside an article element</article>
+</Card.Body>
+```
+
+`asChild` works on any slot independently. It does not affect the parent slot or sibling slots.
+
+### Export individual slot components alongside the family
+
+If consumers need to extend a slot, export the pre-composed component alongside the family. They can extend the slot component directly and pass the result to a new `compose()` call, or use it standalone.
+
+```tsx
+// In your component library
+export const CardRoot = ds.styles({ ... }).variant({ ... }).asElement('div')
+export const CardHeader = ds.styles({ ... }).variant({ ... }).asElement('div')
+export const CardBody = ds.styles({ ... }).variant({ ... }).asElement('div')
+
+export const Card = compose(
+  { Root: CardRoot, Header: CardHeader, Body: CardBody },
+  { shared: { density: true }, name: 'Card' }
+)
+
+// Consumer can extend CardBody before composing their own family
+const WideCardBody = CardBody.extend()
+  .styles({ maxWidth: '720px', mx: 'auto' })
+  .asElement('div')
+```
+
+### System props for one-off overrides
+
+All slot components accept system props as one-off overrides for a specific render. These apply via `@layer system`, above all variant and state layers, so they win the cascade.
+
+```tsx
+<Card.Body mt={32} color="text">
+  Content with ad-hoc overrides
+</Card.Body>
+```
+
+System props are for exceptions, not patterns. If the same override appears in three places, it belongs in `.extend()` or a new variant.
+
+---
+
+## Type Safety in Composition
+
+`VariantPropsOf<C>` works on composed slot components. It extracts the variant props by reading the `VariantConfigBrand` phantom brand from the original Animus component. The brand is preserved through `SealedProps` — `ComposedFamily` strips only the `extend` method, not the brands.
+
+```tsx
+import type { VariantPropsOf } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+// Card.Root is a composed slot — VariantPropsOf still works
+type CardVariants = VariantPropsOf<typeof Card.Root>;
+// → { density?: 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg' }
+
+// Use it to forward variants into a wrapper component
+function CardSection({
+  density,
+  children,
+}: VariantPropsOf<typeof Card.Root> & { children: ReactNode }) {
+  return (
+    <Card.Root density={density}>
+      <Card.Header>Section</Card.Header>
+      <Card.Body>{children}</Card.Body>
+    </Card.Root>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+`VariantPropsOf` does not include state props (boolean toggles). For the full consumer prop surface of a slot, use `ComponentPropsWithRef<typeof Card.Root>`.

+# Custom Props & Transforms
+
+The pre-built prop groups (`space`, `color`, `typography`, etc.) cover most CSS properties. When you need a prop that maps to a CSS property outside those groups — or when you want a transform to convert a prop value before it reaches CSS — `.props()` is the mechanism.
+
+Custom props live in `@layer custom`, the highest-specificity component layer. They are defined once on the builder chain, fully extracted at build time, and typed automatically from their config.
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Static values only">
+  All prop values — including custom prop values — must be static string
+  literals. Dynamic values, template literals, and function calls are skipped
+  per-property during extraction. See [Static Extraction & CSS
+  Output](/docs/advanced/extraction) for the full skip model.
+</Callout>
+
+---
+
+## The .props() Method
+
+`.props()` is defined on `AnimusWithSystem` — the stage returned by `.system()`. It is the last method available before the terminal methods (`.asElement()`, `.asComponent()`, `.asClass()`). It accepts a config map where each key becomes a prop name on the component and each value is a `CustomPropConfig`.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="AnimusWithSystem.props"
+  params={[
+    {
+      name: 'config',
+      type: 'NewCustomProps extends Record<string, CustomPropConfig>',
+    },
+  ]}
+  returns="AnimusWithAll"
+/>
+
+The returned `AnimusWithAll` instance exposes the terminal methods. Custom props are merged with system group props — both appear on the component's prop type.
+
+### CustomPropConfig
+
+`CustomPropConfig` extends `Prop` with a narrower transform return type. Where `Prop` allows transforms to return `string | number | CSSObject`, `CustomPropConfig` restricts the return to `string | number`.
+
+```ts
+interface CustomPropConfig extends Prop {
+  transform?: (
+    val: string | number,
+    prop?: string,
+    props?: AbstractProps
+  ) => string | number;
+}
+```
+
+### Prop
+
+```ts
+interface Prop {
+  property: keyof PropertyTypes; // required — target CSS property
+  properties?: readonly (keyof PropertyTypes)[]; // multi-property fan-out
+  scale?: string | MapScale | ArrayScale; // theme scale binding
+  variable?: string; // CSS variable declaration name
+  transform?: TransformFn; // value transform
+  strict?: boolean; // default true — see Scale Binding
+  negative?: boolean; // enables negated numeric keys
+}
+```
+
+#### Prop.property
+
+The primary CSS property this prop writes to. Required. Must be a key of `PropertyTypes` — the full CSS property map.
+
+```ts
+const Button = ds
+  .styles({
+    /* ... */
+  })
+  .system({ space: true })
+  .props({
+    // 'minWidth' resolves to the CSS min-width property
+    minW: { property: 'minWidth' },
+  })
+  .asElement('button');
+
+// <Button minW="fit-content" />  →  min-width: fit-content;
+```
+
+#### Prop.properties
+
+Fan a single prop value across multiple CSS properties simultaneously. When `properties` is set, the prop writes to all listed properties with the same value. `property` still serves as the primary target for type inference.
+
+```ts
+ds.styles({
+  /* ... */
+})
+  .system({ space: true })
+  .props({
+    inset: {
+      property: 'top',
+      properties: ['top', 'right', 'bottom', 'left'],
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('div');
+
+// <Div inset={0} />  →  top: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0; left: 0;
+```
+
+#### Prop.scale
+
+Binds the prop to a theme scale. Values autocomplete to that scale's keys; the extractor resolves them to CSS variables at build time. Pass a string matching a scale name on your theme, or an inline `MapScale` / `ArrayScale`.
+
+See [Scale Binding](#scale-binding) below for full details.
+
+#### Prop.variable
+
+When `variable` is set, the prop declares a CSS custom property instead of (or in addition to) writing a CSS declaration. The value of the prop becomes the value of that variable, making it available for use in other declarations or child components.
+
+```ts
+ds.styles({
+  /* ... */
+})
+  .props({
+    accentColor: {
+      property: 'color',
+      variable: '--accent',
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('div');
+
+// <Div accentColor="primary" />  →  --accent: var(--colors-primary); color: var(--colors-primary);
+```
+
+#### Prop.transform
+
+A function applied to the prop's value before it is written to CSS. The transform runs at extraction time (for static values) and at runtime (for dynamic fallback). Use `createTransform` to ensure the function is named — named transforms are serializable by their name, which the extraction pipeline requires.
+
+See [Built-in Transforms](#built-in-transforms) and [Creating Custom Transforms](#creating-custom-transforms) below.
+
+---
+
+## Scale Binding
+
+Binding a custom prop to a scale gives its values the same type constraint and CSS variable resolution as any pre-built group prop.
+
+```ts
+ds.styles({
+  /* ... */
+})
+  .system({ space: true })
+  .props({
+    // 'space' is a scale name declared in your theme
+    gap: { property: 'gap', scale: 'space' },
+    // 'fontSizes' is a scale name declared in your theme
+    textSize: { property: 'fontSize', scale: 'fontSizes' },
+  })
+  .asElement('div');
+```
+
+With this config, TypeScript narrows `gap` to your space scale keys and `textSize` to your fontSizes scale keys. At extraction, each key resolves to the corresponding CSS variable.
+
+### ThemedScaleValue
+
+The value type for a scale-bound prop on a component. Resolves against the augmented `Theme` interface:
+
+```ts
+type ThemedScaleValue<Config extends Prop> =
+  Config['scale'] extends keyof TokenScales<Theme>
+    ? keyof TokenScales<Theme>[Config['scale']] | PropertyValues<Config, ...>
+    : Config['scale'] extends MapScale
+      ? keyof Config['scale'] | PropertyValues<Config, ...>
+      : Config['scale'] extends ArrayScale
+        ? Config['scale'][number] | PropertyValues<Config, ...>
+        : PropertyValues<Config, true>;
+```
+
+For the `colors` scale, `ThemedScaleValue` additionally accepts the `{colors.key/opacity}` opacity syntax:
+
+```ts
+// Colors scale — opacity syntax available
+ds.styles({ bg: '{colors.primary/10}' });
+```
+
+### ThemedScale
+
+`ThemedScale` wraps `ThemedScaleValue` in `ResponsiveProp`, making every scale-bound custom prop responsive by default.
+
+```ts
+type ThemedScale<Config extends Prop> = ResponsiveProp<
+  ThemedScaleValue<Config>
+>;
+```
+
+This means custom props with a `scale` binding accept both scalar values and `MediaQueryMap` objects without any additional configuration.
+
+### ScaleValue
+
+`ScaleValue<Config, T>` is the generic form of `ThemedScaleValue` — it takes a `BaseTheme` type parameter `T` instead of relying on the augmented `Theme` interface. Used internally by the parser. Consumers work with `ThemedScaleValue` directly.
+
+### Scale
+
+`Scale<Config, T>` wraps `ScaleValue<Config, T>` in `ResponsiveProp`. The component-facing parallel to `ThemedScale`.
+
+### Inline scales
+
+Pass a `MapScale` or `ArrayScale` directly when you want a prop constrained to a fixed set of values not tied to the theme:
+
+```ts
+// MapScale — object with named keys
+ds.styles({
+  /* ... */
+})
+  .props({
+    align: {
+      property: 'textAlign',
+      scale: { left: 'left', center: 'center', right: 'right' } as const,
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('p');
+
+// ArrayScale — tuple of accepted values
+ds.styles({
+  /* ... */
+})
+  .props({
+    cursor: {
+      property: 'cursor',
+      scale: ['pointer', 'default', 'not-allowed', 'grab'] as const,
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('div');
+```
+
+### strict: false
+
+By default, scale-bound props are strict — only scale keys are accepted. Set `strict: false` to allow raw CSS values alongside scale keys. The type widens to `ScaleKey | (string & {})`, preserving autocomplete while accepting arbitrary strings.
+
+```ts
+ds.styles({
+  /* ... */
+})
+  .props({
+    // scale keys autocomplete, but arbitrary CSS values also accepted
+    letterSpacing: {
+      property: 'letterSpacing',
+      scale: 'fontSizes',
+      strict: false,
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('span');
+```
+
+### PropertyValues
+
+`PropertyValues<Property, IncludeGlobals>` extracts the standard CSS type for a prop's target property. When `IncludeGlobals` is `true` (as it is in the strict-false path), the type includes `(string & {}) | 0` for open-ended CSS values. When `false`, object and array types are excluded to keep the union practical.
+
+---
+
+## Built-in Transforms
+
+Animus ships six transform functions. Each is a `NamedTransform` — created via `createTransform` with a stable name so the extraction pipeline can serialize and reconstruct it by name.
+
+### size
+
+Converts numeric and string values to CSS length units:
+
+- **Number 0** → `0` (no unit)
+- **Number in `(-1, 0) ∪ (0, 1]`** → percentage (`0.5` → `50%`)
+- **Number > 1 or < -1** → pixels (`24` → `24px`)
+- **String with `calc`** → passthrough (`calc(100% - 16px)` → unchanged)
+- **String with unit** → preserve unit (`1.5rem` → `1.5rem`)
+- **Unitless string** → applies the same numeric rules after parsing
+
+```ts
+ds.styles({
+  /* ... */
+})
+  .props({
+    w: { property: 'width', transform: size },
+    h: { property: 'height', transform: size },
+  })
+  .asElement('div');
+
+// <Box w={0.5} />   →  width: 50%;
+// <Box w={24} />    →  width: 24px;
+// <Box w="1.5rem" /> →  width: 1.5rem;
+// <Box w="calc(100% - 16px)" />  →  width: calc(100% - 16px);
+```
+
+### percentageOrAbsolute
+
+The numeric core of `size`. Takes a single number and converts it:
+
+- `0` → `0`
+- Between -1 and 1 (exclusive of 0) → percentage
+- Otherwise → pixels
+
+Unlike `size`, `percentageOrAbsolute` is a plain function (not a `NamedTransform`) — it does not handle strings and is intended for use as a utility inside other transforms.
+
+```ts
+percentageOrAbsolute(0); // → 0
+percentageOrAbsolute(0.25); // → '25%'
+percentageOrAbsolute(16); // → '16px'
+```
+
+### borderShorthand
+
+Converts a number to a `border` shorthand using `currentColor`. Passes strings through unchanged.
+
+- **Number** → `${N}px solid currentColor`
+- **String** → passthrough
+
+```ts
+ds.styles({
+  /* ... */
+})
+  .props({
+    border: { property: 'border', transform: borderShorthand },
+  })
+  .asElement('div');
+
+// <Box border={1} />  →  border: 1px solid currentColor;
+// <Box border={2} />  →  border: 2px solid currentColor;
+```
+
+This is how the pre-built `border` group works internally. `currentColor` inherits the element's `color` property, keeping borders in sync with text color without hardcoding a value.
+
+### gridItem
+
+Converts a column or row track value to a `minmax(0, X)` template:
+
+- **Integer string or number** → `minmax(0, Nfr)`
+- **`'max'`** → `minmax(0, max-content)`
+- **`'min'`** → `minmax(0, min-content)`
+- **Any other string** → `minmax(0, value)` (passthrough into template)
+
+```ts
+ds.styles({
+  /* ... */
+})
+  .props({
+    col: { property: 'gridColumn', transform: gridItem },
+  })
+  .asElement('div');
+
+// <Box col={1} />    →  grid-column: minmax(0, 1fr);
+// <Box col="max" />  →  grid-column: minmax(0, max-content);
+// <Box col="min" />  →  grid-column: minmax(0, min-content);
+```
+
+### gridItemRatio
+
+Converts a ratio string or a count number into a full grid template:
+
+- **Number** → N equal `minmax(0, 1fr)` columns (using repeat compression)
+- **String `"a:b:c"`** → space-separated `minmax(0, X)` tracks with consecutive identical tracks compressed using `repeat()`
+
+```ts
+ds.styles({
+  /* ... */
+})
+  .props({
+    cols: { property: 'gridTemplateColumns', transform: gridItemRatio },
+  })
+  .asElement('div');
+
+// <Grid cols={3} />        →  repeat(3, minmax(0, 1fr))
+// <Grid cols="1:2:1" />    →  minmax(0, 1fr) minmax(0, 2fr) minmax(0, 1fr)
+// <Grid cols="1:1:2:1:1" /> →  repeat(2, minmax(0, 1fr)) minmax(0, 2fr) repeat(2, minmax(0, 1fr))
+```
+
+The repeat compression is exact — consecutive identical tracks are collapsed into a single `repeat()` call. Tracks that appear only once are emitted as-is.
+
+---
+
+## Creating Custom Transforms
+
+Use `createTransform` to define a named transform. The name argument becomes the `transformName` property on the returned function — this is what the extraction pipeline uses to serialize and reconstruct the transform by name. **Anonymous transforms work at runtime but emit `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders in the extracted CSS.**
+
+### createTransform
+
+```ts
+function createTransform(name: string, fn: TransformFn): NamedTransform;
+```
+
+### TransformFn
+
+```ts
+type TransformFn = (
+  value: string | number,
+  property?: string,
+  props?: AbstractProps
+) => string | number | CSSObject;
+```
+
+The function receives the prop's raw value, the CSS property name being targeted, and the full props object if you need to read sibling prop values. For `CustomPropConfig`, the return type is narrowed to `string | number`.
+
+### NamedTransform
+
+```ts
+type NamedTransform = TransformFn & { transformName: string };
+```
+
+`createTransform` returns a `NamedTransform`: a `TransformFn` with a `transformName` property attached. The extraction pipeline reads this property to serialize the transform by name in `ds.serialize()` output. If your transform function does not have a `transformName`, the extractor emits `__TRANSFORM__` as the resolved value — a visible signal that extraction failed for that prop.
+
+```ts
+import { createTransform } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+// Named — serializable, extraction-compatible
+const myTransform = createTransform('myTransform', (value) => {
+  // ... convert value ...
+  return String(value);
+});
+
+// Anonymous — works at runtime, emits __TRANSFORM__ in extracted CSS
+const broken = (value: string | number) => String(value);
+//                                        ↑ no transformName → extraction placeholder
+```
+
+---
+
+## Real-World Transform Examples
+
+These are the custom transforms defined in `ds.ts` for the showcase design system. Both follow the `createTransform` pattern and are wired into custom props on the system instance.
+
+### fluid — Responsive font sizing
+
+Converts a `"min-max"` string into a CSS `clamp()` expression that scales linearly between a 480px and 1360px viewport.
+
+```ts
+const fluid = createTransform('fluid', (value) => {
+  const [min, max] = String(value).split('-').map(Number);
+  if (!min || !max) return String(value);
+  const minRem = min / 16;
+  const maxRem = max / 16;
+  const slope = ((max - min) / 880) * 100;
+  const intercept = minRem - (slope / 100) * (480 / 16);
+  return `clamp(${minRem.toFixed(3)}rem, ${intercept.toFixed(3)}rem + ${slope.toFixed(2)}vw, ${maxRem.toFixed(3)}rem)`;
+});
+```
+
+Usage: `fontSize: "16-32"` resolves to a `clamp()` expression that starts at `1rem` at 480px viewport width and reaches `2rem` at 1360px. Gracefully degrades — if the value does not contain a hyphen, it passes through as-is.

+}`}

+
+### ratio — CSS aspect-ratio
+
+Converts a `"W:H"` string to `W / H` format for the `aspect-ratio` CSS property. Passes through any value that does not contain a colon.
+
+```ts
+const ratio = createTransform('ratio', (value) => {
+  const str = String(value);
+  if (str.includes(':')) {
+    return str.replace(':', ' / ');
+  }
+  return str;
+});
+```
+
+```ts
+ds.styles({
+  /* ... */
+})
+  .props({
+    ratio: {
+      property: 'aspectRatio',
+      transform: ratio,
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('div');
+
+// <Box ratio="16:9" />  →  aspect-ratio: 16 / 9;
+// <Box ratio="1:1" />   →  aspect-ratio: 1 / 1;
+// <Box ratio="auto" />  →  aspect-ratio: auto;

+### JSX usage
+
+```tsx
+// Defaults: size="md" intent="primary"
+<Button>Save changes</Button>
+
+// Variant combination
+<Button size="lg" intent="secondary">Cancel</Button>
+
+// State toggles — boolean props, never reach the DOM
+<Button intent="danger" isLoading>Deleting…</Button>
+<Button intent="ghost" isDisabled>Unavailable</Button>
+
+// Block width in a form column
+<Button isBlock size="lg">Submit form</Button>

+
+### Extension: ButtonLink
+
+`.extend()` on the terminal component starts a new builder chain inheriting all base styles, variants, and states. Use `.asElement('a')` to change the underlying element. The extended component does not re-declare the parent's CSS — only the delta is emitted.
+
+```tsx
+// ButtonLink inherits Button's full style surface.
+// .asElement('a') changes the rendered HTML element.
+export const ButtonLink = Button.extend()
+  .styles({
+    // Override cursor for anchor semantics
+    cursor: 'pointer',
+  })
+  .asElement('a');
+```
+
+```tsx
+// Same variant/state props surface as Button
+<ButtonLink href="/dashboard" intent="primary" size="md">
+  Go to dashboard
+</ButtonLink>
+
+// System prop one-off — mt goes to @layer system, wins the cascade
+<ButtonLink href="/signup" intent="ghost" mt={24}>
+  Create account
+</ButtonLink>

+
+## Color Scheme Patterns
+
+Four techniques for mapping color to components. Each approach has a different trade-off in terms of cascade flexibility and theme adaptability.
+
+### 1. Opacity syntax — alpha-adjusted token refs
+
+The `{colors.key/N}` syntax resolves to `color-mix(in srgb, <token> N%, transparent)` in the extracted CSS. No hardcoded hex values.
+
+```tsx
+const SelectionCard = ds
+  .styles({
+    bg: 'surface',
+    border: 1,
+    borderColor: 'border',
+    borderRadius: '6px',
+    p: 16,
+    transition: 'border-color 120ms ease, background-color 120ms ease',
+  })
+  .states({
+    selected: {
+      bg: '{colors.scheme.500/8}',
+      borderColor: 'scheme.500',
+      // Hover while selected — deepen the fill
+      _hover: { bg: '{colors.scheme.500/14}' },
+    },
+    hovered: {
+      bg: '{colors.scheme.500/5}',
+      borderColor: '{colors.border/80}',
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('div');
+```
+
+```tsx
+// scheme.500 resolves to fire.500 in dark mode, warm.300 in light mode —
+// the component is theme-adaptive without any variant logic
+<SelectionCard selected>Active item</SelectionCard>
+```
+
+### 2. CSS variable rebinding — scheme remapping per variant
+
+The Button recipe above demonstrates this pattern. Instead of hardcoding colors in each variant, define CSS custom properties in `.styles()` with sensible defaults, then rebind them per variant. The cascade computes the correct color at render time.
+
+```tsx
+// Intent-colored badge — scheme variable rebound to a specific palette per intent
+const Badge = ds
+  .styles({
+    display: 'inline-flex',
+    alignItems: 'center',
+    gap: '4px',
+    fontWeight: '500',
+    fontSize: 11,
+    letterSpacing: '0.06em',
+    textTransform: 'uppercase',
+    borderRadius: '4px',
+    px: 8,
+    py: 4,
+    // Defaults — overridden by each variant
+    '--badge-bg': 'var(--colors-scheme-500)',
+    '--badge-color': 'var(--colors-scheme-50)',
+    backgroundColor: 'var(--badge-bg)',
+    color: 'var(--badge-color)',
+  })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'intent',
+    defaultVariant: 'default',
+    variants: {
+      default: {
+        '--badge-bg': '{colors.border/40}',
+        '--badge-color': 'var(--colors-text)',
+      },
+      primary: {
+        '--badge-bg': '{colors.scheme.500/15}',
+        '--badge-color': 'var(--colors-scheme-500)',
+      },
+      success: {
+        '--badge-bg': '{colors.forest.500/12}',
+        '--badge-color': 'var(--colors-forest-500)',
+      },
+      warning: {
+        '--badge-bg': '{colors.gold.300/20}',
+        '--badge-color': 'var(--colors-gold-300)',
+      },
+      danger: {
+        '--badge-bg': '{colors.fire.500/12}',
+        '--badge-color': 'var(--colors-fire-500)',
+      },
+      ocean: {
+        '--badge-bg': '{colors.ocean.500/12}',
+        '--badge-color': 'var(--colors-ocean-500)',
+      },
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('span');
+```
+
+### 3. Contextual variable — current-bg
+
+`current-bg` is a contextual variable declared on the theme via `declareContextualVars`. The `bg` prop sets it as a side effect — any child can read `var(--current-bg)` to match the parent's background.
+
+```tsx
+// Parent sets --current-bg as a side effect of bg prop
+const Section = ds
+  .styles({
+    bg: 'bg',
+    p: 48,
+  })
+  .asElement('section');
+
+// Divider reads the parent's background to create a cut-out effect
+const SectionDivider = ds
+  .styles({
+    height: '1px',
+    backgroundColor: 'border',
+    // --current-bg set by the nearest parent with bg prop
+    boxShadow: '0 0 0 4px var(--current-bg)',
+  })
+  .asElement('hr');
+
+// Inset ring that matches parent background — no hardcoded color
+const InsetRing = ds
+  .styles({
+    outline: '2px solid',
+    outlineColor: 'border',
+    outlineOffset: '-4px',
+    // Inset ring uses parent bg via contextual var
+    boxShadow: '0 0 0 8px var(--current-bg)',
+  })
+  .asElement('div');
+```
+
+### 4. Comparison — same visual, three approaches
+
+The visual: a chip component with a subtle tinted background matching the color mode's scheme.
+
+```tsx
+// Approach A: direct opacity token ref in .styles()
+// Trade-off: single visual, not switchable without a variant
+const ChipA = ds
+  .styles({
+    bg: '{colors.scheme.500/8}',
+    color: 'scheme.500',
+    px: 8,
+    py: 4,
+    borderRadius: '999px',
+    fontSize: 12,
+    fontWeight: '500',
+  })
+  .asElement('span');
+
+// Approach B: variant for multiple palettes
+// Trade-off: explicit control, more declarations
+const ChipB = ds
+  .styles({
+    px: 8,
+    py: 4,
+    borderRadius: '999px',
+    fontSize: 12,
+    fontWeight: '500',
+  })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'palette',
+    defaultVariant: 'scheme',
+    variants: {
+      scheme: { bg: '{colors.scheme.500/8}', color: 'scheme.500' },
+      fire: { bg: '{colors.fire.500/8}', color: 'fire.500' },
+      ocean: { bg: '{colors.ocean.500/8}', color: 'ocean.500' },
+      forest: { bg: '{colors.forest.500/8}', color: 'forest.500' },
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('span');
+
+// Approach C: state prop for a single on/off tint toggle
+// Trade-off: additive — layers over existing base color
+const ChipC = ds
+  .styles({
+    display: 'inline-flex',
+    px: 8,
+    py: 4,
+    borderRadius: '999px',
+    fontSize: 12,
+    fontWeight: '500',
+    color: 'text.muted',
+    bg: '{colors.border/30}',
+  })
+  .states({
+    active: {
+      bg: '{colors.scheme.500/12}',
+      color: 'scheme.500',
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('span');
+```
+
+**When to reach for each:**
+
+| Approach                           | Use when                                                                     |
+| ---------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| Direct opacity ref in `.styles()`  | One visual, always the same tint, theme-adaptive                             |
+| CSS variable rebinding per variant | Multiple palette options, interaction hover states share declarations        |
+| State prop                         | Toggle between neutral and tinted — binary, additive, layered on top of base |
+| `current-bg` contextual var        | Child needs to "punch through" to parent background without coordination     |

+# Selectors & Nesting
+
+Style objects in Animus accept nested keys as selectors. Three forms are available: built-in selector aliases (`_hover`, `_disabled`, etc.), arbitrary CSS selector strings (`'& > *'`, `'&[data-state="open"]'`), and selector aliases nested inside boolean state configs. All three are valid in `.styles()`, `.variant()`, `.compound()`, and `.states()`.
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Static values only">
+  All style values must be static string literals. Dynamic values — template
+  literals, variables, ternaries, function calls — are skipped per-property at
+  extraction time. See [Static Extraction & CSS
+  Output](/docs/advanced/extraction) for the full skip model.
+</Callout>
+
+---
+
+## Built-in Selector Aliases
+
+Animus ships 25 selector aliases. Each `_`-prefixed key maps to one or more CSS selectors. The ARIA-aware aliases (form and state group) expand to cover native CSS selectors, `aria-*` attributes, and `data-*` attributes in one declaration — a single `_disabled` key produces `:disabled`, `[disabled]`, `[aria-disabled="true"]`, and `[data-disabled]`.
+
+**Cascade ordering:** The `order` field determines emission order within a layer. Higher order numbers win when specificity is equal. `_disabled` (order 200) always overrides interaction states (`_hover` at 30, `_active` at 70).
+
+**Unknown aliases are silently dropped.** If you use a `_`-prefixed key that does not match a built-in or registered custom alias, the extractor drops it without warning. Typos produce no CSS.
+

+### Using aliases in styles
+
+Alias keys accept the same system props and CSS properties as the top-level config, constrained to the same theme scales.

+
+The ARIA-aware selectors mean `_disabled` styles activate whether the element uses the native `disabled` attribute, `aria-disabled="true"`, or a headless component's `data-disabled` attribute. No conditional selector branching required.
+
+---
+
+## Arbitrary `&` Selectors
+
+Any string key that does not match a system prop name or a selector alias is treated as a raw CSS selector string. The `&` character is the component's own class selector and must appear in the string.
+
+These keys are untyped — they accept a `CSSObject` whose values follow the same static-literal and token-ref rules as other style objects.
+
+```tsx
+const NavList = ds
+  .styles({
+    listStyle: 'none',
+    m: 0,
+    p: 0,
+
+    // Direct child selector
+    '& > li': {
+      borderBottom: '1px solid',
+      borderColor: 'border',
+      py: 8,
+    },
+
+    // Last child override
+    '& > li:last-child': {
+      borderBottom: 0,
+    },
+
+    // Attribute selector
+    '&[data-orientation="horizontal"]': {
+      display: 'flex',
+      flexDirection: 'row',
+    },
+
+    // Combined state + descendant
+    '&:hover [data-icon]': {
+      color: 'primary',
+    },
+
+    // Negation
+    '&:active:not(:disabled)': {
+      transform: 'scale(0.98)',
+    },
+
+    // Pseudo-element with scrollbar styling
+    '&::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb': {
+      bg: '{colors.border/40}',
+      borderRadius: '4px',
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('ul');
+```
+
+Common patterns:
+
+- `'& > *'` — all direct children
+- `'& + &'` — adjacent sibling (same component type)
+- `'&[data-state="active"]'` — data attribute state
+- `'&:not([aria-disabled="true"])'` — ARIA negation
+- `'& .class-name'` — descendant by class
+- `'&:hover [data-slot="icon"]'` — slot targeting on hover
+
+Arbitrary selectors are emitted after alias styles within the same layer. They do not participate in the alias cascade ordering system.
+
+---
+
+## Selectors Inside States
+
+Boolean state configs (`.states()`) and variant style objects also accept selector aliases and arbitrary selectors. The pattern nests selectors inside state activations — the state class gates the selector, the selector narrows within that state.
+
+```tsx
+const Card = ds
+  .styles({
+    bg: 'surface',
+    border: '1px solid',
+    borderColor: 'border',
+    transition: 'box-shadow 120ms ease',
+  })
+  .states({
+    interactive: {
+      cursor: 'pointer',
+      _hover: {
+        borderColor: 'primary',
+        boxShadow: '0 0 0 1px var(--colors-primary)',
+      },
+      _focusVisible: {
+        outline: '2px solid',
+        outlineColor: 'primary',
+        outlineOffset: '2px',
+      },
+      _active: {
+        transform: 'scale(0.99)',
+      },
+    },
+    selected: {
+      borderColor: 'primary',
+      bg: '{colors.primary/8}',
+      _hover: {
+        bg: '{colors.primary/12}',
+      },
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('div');
+```
+
+States and selectors are orthogonal — the state boolean activates a class, and selectors nest within that class's CSS scope. The state boolean determines _whether_ the block applies; the selector determines _when_ within that state the nested styles activate.
+
+This means a component can have no interactive styles when the `interactive` state prop is false, and acquire them when it is true — without any runtime style computation.
+
+<CodeExample
+  inputLabel="source"
+  outputLabel="extracted CSS"
+  input={`const Tag = ds.styles({
+  bg: '{colors.border/20}',
+  color: 'text',
+  borderRadius: '4px',
+  px: 8,
+  py: 4,
+}).states({
+  removable: {
+    '& [data-remove]': {
+      opacity: '0.5',
+    },
+    '& [data-remove]:hover': {
+      opacity: '1',
+      color: 'error',
+    },
+  },
+}).asElement('span')`}
+  output={`.animus-Tag-c3d4 {
+  background-color: color-mix(in srgb, var(--colors-border) 20%, transparent);
+  color: var(--colors-text);
+  border-radius: 4px;
+  padding-inline: 0.5rem;
+  padding-block: 0.25rem;
+}
+.animus-Tag-c3d4--removable [data-remove] {
+  opacity: 0.5;
+}
+.animus-Tag-c3d4--removable [data-remove]:hover {
+  opacity: 1;
+  color: var(--colors-error);
+}`}
+/>
+
+---
+
+## Custom Selector Registration
+
+`SystemBuilder.addSelectors()` registers additional selector aliases on the design system. Custom aliases become available as typed keys in all style configs built from that system.
+
+```ts
+import { createSystem } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+const { system: ds } = createSystem()
+  .addSelectors({
+    // The selector string must include &
+    _highlighted: '&[data-highlighted], &[data-active]',
+    _dragging: '&[data-dragging="true"]',
+    _dropTarget: '&[data-drop-target]',
+  })
+  .build();
+```
+
+**Selector string requirement:** The value must include `&`. The `&` is replaced with the component's generated class name at extraction time. A selector without `&` produces invalid CSS.
+
+**Order assignment:** New aliases are assigned order values starting at 500, incrementing by 10 for each additional alias. The first custom alias gets order 500, the second gets 510, and so on. This places them after all built-in aliases (max order 440) in the cascade.
+
+**Overriding built-in aliases:** If the registered name matches an existing alias, the selector string is replaced but the original order value is preserved. This lets you change what `_hover` targets without changing its cascade position.
+
+```ts
+// Override _hover to also match data-hover (e.g., for touch devices)
+const { system: ds } = createSystem()
+  .addSelectors({
+    _hover: '&:hover, &[data-hover]', // order stays 30
+  })
+  .build();
+```
+
+Custom aliases registered via `addSelectors()` are serialized into the system config and passed to the Rust extractor at build time. They work identically to built-in aliases — the extractor has no distinction between them.
+
+---
+
+## Cascade Ordering
+
+Selector aliases within a single component are emitted in ascending order number. This produces deterministic cascade behavior regardless of the order aliases appear in the source object.
+
+```tsx
+// Source order doesn't matter — emission follows order numbers
+const Input = ds
+  .styles({
+    _disabled: { opacity: '0.4' }, // order 200 — emitted last, wins
+    _focus: { borderColor: 'primary' }, // order 50
+    _hover: { borderColor: 'text' }, // order 30 — emitted first
+  })
+  .asElement('input');
+```
+
+The emitted CSS orders these as `_hover` → `_focus` → `_disabled` regardless of how they appear in the source. When specificity is equal, the later rule wins — so `_disabled` always overrides `_focus` and `_hover`.
+
+**Cascade position by order range:**
+
+| Order range | Group                                       |
+| ----------- | ------------------------------------------- |
+| 10–80       | Interactive states (LVHA order)             |
+| 100–160     | Form / ARIA states                          |
+| 200         | Disabled (wins over all interaction states) |
+| 300–330     | Pseudo-elements                             |
+| 400–440     | Positional selectors                        |
+| 500+        | Custom registered selectors                 |
+
+Custom selectors at 500+ win over all built-in aliases when specificity is equal. If you need a custom selector to lose to `_disabled`, register it at a lower order — the `addSelectors()` merge for existing names preserves the original order, so you could shadow a built-in alias with a different name by registering at a specific position explicitly (currently not directly supported — order is assigned sequentially from 500).
+
+Arbitrary `&` selector strings do not participate in this ordering system. They are processed in source order, after alias styles.

+# System Props & Groups
+
+System props are style props exposed directly on a component instance — the runtime surface that lets consumers pass token-bound values without writing inline styles or class names. Groups are named sets of related props registered on your design system instance. `.system()` opts a specific component into one or more groups.
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Static values only">
+  All system prop values must be static string literals or static number
+  literals. Dynamic values — template literals, computed variables, ternaries,
+  function calls, spread objects — are skipped at extraction time. Responsive
+  maps `{'{ _: 16, sm: 32 }'}` are valid when all keys and values are static.
+</Callout>
+

+
+## `.system()` — Enabling Groups on a Component
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="system"

+  returns="AnimusWithSystem"
+/>
+
+`.system()` is called after `.states()` (or after `.variant()` / `.compound()` if no states are defined). It accepts an object whose keys are group names registered on the design system instance and whose values are the literal `true`. The return type, `AnimusWithSystem`, exposes `.props()` and the terminal methods (`.asElement()`, `.asComponent()`, `.asClass()`).
+
+Props from enabled groups are emitted into `@layer system` — above `@layer states`, below inline styles. This means system props can override base, variant, and state styles.
+
+System props accept responsive values. Any group prop can receive a `MediaQueryMap` object: `{ _: 'column', sm: 'row' }`. The `_` key emits base styles; named keys emit `min-width` media queries matching your theme's breakpoints.
+

+  .asElement('div')
+
+// Consumer usage
+

+/>
+
+You can also enable individual props by name rather than entire groups:
+
+```tsx
+const Box = ds
+  .styles({})
+  .system({ m: true, p: true, display: true })
+  .asElement('div');
+```
+
+Any key in `GroupRegistry` (a group name) or in `PropRegistry` (a single prop name) is valid.
+
+---
+
+## Pre-built Group Reference

+The following groups are registered on every Animus design system instance built from `createSystem()`. Group names are the keys you pass to `.system()`.

+# Variants, Compounds & States
+
+Three tools for conditional styling. Each maps to a distinct `@layer` in the emitted CSS and to a distinct pattern of prop usage in JSX. Choosing the right tool is a cascade decision, not just a naming preference.
+
+| Tool          | When to use                                                             | Prop type         | CSS layer          |
+| ------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------- | ------------------ |
+| `.variant()`  | Enumerable named options: `size`, `intent`, `density`                   | `string`          | `@layer variants`  |
+| `.compound()` | Styles that apply only when multiple variants are simultaneously active | n/a (no new prop) | `@layer compounds` |
+| `.states()`   | Boolean toggles for UI state: `isLoading`, `open`, `copied`, `bordered` | `boolean`         | `@layer states`    |
+
+**States are not CSS pseudo-class sugar.** `_hover`, `_focus`, and other selector aliases are a separate, orthogonal concept — they nest static CSS rules inside a single class. States are boolean props that activate an entirely separate class containing their own style declarations. See [Selectors & Nesting](/docs/authoring/selectors) for the selector alias model.
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Static values only">
+  All style values in `.variant()`, `.compound()`, and `.states()` configs must
+  be static string literals. Dynamic values — template literals, variables,
+  ternaries, function calls — are skipped per-property at extraction time. See
+  [Static Extraction & CSS Output](/docs/advanced/extraction) for the full skip
+  model.

+## Named Variants
+
+`.variant()` defines a set of mutually exclusive style options behind a single prop. The call returns `AnimusWithVariants`, which exposes another `.variant()` call — multiple variants chain freely.

+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+### Why the `prop` key exists
+
+The builder uses a single internal registry keyed by prop name. Two `.variant()` calls without `prop` overrides would both register under `"variant"`, with the second silently overwriting the first. Explicit `prop` names make this collision impossible at the type level — `AnimusWithVariants` tracks each variant key as a generic parameter.

+/>
+
+The extractor emits one attribute selector per variant value. `defaultVariant` controls which `data-*` attribute value the runtime sets when the prop is absent. No JavaScript style computation occurs at render time.
+
+### Empty variant values
+
+An empty object `{}` is a valid variant value. It functions as an explicit "no additional styles" option — useful when one option is the visual baseline and others add on top of it.
+
+```tsx
+ds.styles({ fontWeight: '400' }).variant({
+  prop: 'weight',
+  variants: {
+    normal: {}, // no additional styles — base fontWeight applies
+    bold: { fontWeight: '700' },
+    black: { fontWeight: '900' },
+  },
+});
+```
+
+---
+
+## Compound Conditions
+
+`.compound()` applies styles only when a specific combination of variant values is active. Each call registers one `CompoundEntry` — the condition is AND-combined across all keys in the condition object.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="compound"
+  params={[
+    {
+      name: 'condition',
+      type: '{ [K in keyof Variants]?: keyof Variants[K]["variants"] | ReadonlyArray<keyof Variants[K]["variants"]> }',
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'styles',
+      type: 'ThemedCSSProps<Props, PropRegistry>',
+    },
+  ]}
+  returns="AnimusWithCompounds"
+/>
+
+`.compound()` is available on both `AnimusWithVariants` (immediately after `.variant()`) and `AnimusWithCompounds` (after a prior `.compound()` call). This allows chaining multiple compound conditions.
+
+### Condition matching
+
+- **Single string value** — the condition key must match exactly that variant value.
+- **Array of strings** — the condition key matches any value in the array (OR within a key, AND across keys).
+
+```tsx
+const Tag = ds
+  .styles({ display: 'inline-flex' })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'size',
+    variants: {
+      sm: { fontSize: 14 },
+      md: { fontSize: 16 },
+      lg: { fontSize: 18 },
+    },
+  })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'intent',
+    variants: {
+      neutral: { bg: 'surface', color: 'text' },
+      active: { bg: 'primary', color: 'bg' },
+      success: { bg: 'accent', color: 'bg' },
+    },
+  })
+  // fires when size=sm AND intent=active
+  .compound(
+    { size: 'sm', intent: 'active' },
+    { fontWeight: '700', letterSpacing: '0.05em' }
+  )
+  // fires when size=lg AND intent is active OR success
+  .compound(
+    { size: 'lg', intent: ['active', 'success'] },
+    { borderRadius: '999px' }
+  )
+  .asElement('span');
+```
+
+### Layer position
+
+Compound styles sit in `@layer compounds`, above `@layer variants`. This is intentional: a compound condition is more specific than any single variant, so it should win when both apply. The layer ordering enforces this without needing higher selector specificity.
+
+### Why not a single config object
+
+A single flat config object couldn't express multiple independent conditions that apply different styles. An array of `CompoundEntry` values lets each condition be evaluated independently at render time. The extractor emits a separate attribute selector for each entry.
+
+---
+
+## Boolean States
+
+`.states()` registers boolean prop toggles. Each key in the config becomes a boolean prop on the component. When the prop is `true`, the runtime adds a class that applies the corresponding styles.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="states"
+  params={[
+    {
+      name: 'config',
+      type: 'ThemedCSSPropMap<Props, PropRegistry>',
+    },
+  ]}
+  returns="AnimusWithStates"
+/>
+
+`.states()` is available on `AnimusWithCompounds` — it comes after any compound definitions in the chain. The ordering enforces cascade position: state styles sit above compound styles, so a boolean state can override compound output when both are active.
+
+### State keys
+
+State keys are arbitrary semantic names — they are component-level concepts, not CSS concepts.
+
+```tsx
+const Card = ds
+  .styles({
+    bg: 'surface',
+    border: 1,
+    borderColor: 'border',
+    borderRadius: '8px',
+    p: 16,
+  })
+  .states({
+    bordered: {
+      borderWidth: '2px',
+      borderColor: 'primary',
+    },
+    elevated: {
+      boxShadow: '0 4px 24px {colors.glow/16}',
+    },
+    interactive: {
+      cursor: 'pointer',
+      _hover: {
+        borderColor: 'accent',
+        bg: '{colors.primary/8}',
+      },
+    },
+  })
+  .asElement('div');
+```
+
+State style objects accept selector aliases (`_hover`, `_focus`, etc.) nested inside them. This lets a boolean state activate both base styles and interactive overrides in one declaration.
+
+### Class naming and DOM filtering
+
+The extractor emits one class per state key, following the pattern `ComponentName--stateName`. State prop names are filtered from the DOM — they never appear as HTML attributes. The runtime applies or removes the class based on the boolean prop value.
+
+```tsx
+// JSX — both state props are valid TypeScript, neither reaches the DOM
+<Card bordered elevated>
+  …content…
+</Card>
+```
+
+### When states vs. variants
+
+Use `.states()` when:
+
+- The condition is boolean (on/off) with no enumerable middle ground
+- The state is about UI behavior or status, not visual category (`isOpen`, `copied`, `active`, `bordered`)
+- The style override is additive — it layers on top of base and variant styles
+
+Use `.variant()` when:
+
+- There are three or more named options and only one applies at a time (`sm | md | lg`)
+- The options are mutually exclusive by definition
+- A default makes sense (one option is the "normal" state)
+
+---
+
+## Variant Props in JSX
+
+Every variant and state defined in the builder chain surfaces as a typed prop on the component. TypeScript infers the full union of valid values from the config.
+
+```tsx
+// Both size and intent autocomplete with their valid string values.
+// bordered autocompletes as boolean | undefined.
+<Button size="lg" intent="ghost" />
+
+// TS error — 'xl' is not in the size variant union
+<Button size="xl" />  // Type '"xl"' is not assignable to type '"sm" | "md" | "lg"'
+```
+
+### VariantPropsOf
+
+`VariantPropsOf<C>` extracts the variant prop types from a component without re-declaring them. Use it when forwarding or extending variant props in a wrapper component.
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="VariantPropsOf"
+  generics="C"
+  returns="VariantProps<ExtractVariantsConfig<C>>"
+/>
+
+```tsx
+import type { VariantPropsOf } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+// Button has: size?: 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg', intent?: 'primary' | 'ghost' | 'danger'
+type ButtonVariants = VariantPropsOf<typeof Button>;
+// → { size?: 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg'; intent?: 'primary' | 'ghost' | 'danger' }
+
+// Compose into a higher-level component that accepts and forwards the same variants
+function IconButton({
+  size,
+  intent,
+  icon,
+  ...rest
+}: VariantPropsOf<typeof Button> & { icon: ReactNode }) {
+  return (
+    <Button size={size} intent={intent} {...rest}>
+      {icon}
+    </Button>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+`VariantPropsOf` reads from a phantom brand (`VariantConfigBrand`) carried on the component type rather than inferring through the full class hierarchy. This avoids the TS2590 "union too complex" error that occurs when a large prop registry is involved.

+## Installation & Config
+
+Install the plugin alongside the core packages:
+
+```bash
+bun add @animus-ui/next-plugin @animus-ui/system @animus-ui/extract
+```
+
+Wrap your Next.js config with `withAnimus`. The wrapper is curried — options first, then the existing config object.
+
+**ESM (`next.config.ts`)**
+
+```ts
+import { withAnimus } from '@animus-ui/next-plugin';
+
+export default withAnimus({ system: './src/ds.ts' })({
+  // your existing Next.js config
+});
+```
+
+**CJS (`next.config.js`)**
+
+```js
+const { withAnimus } = require('@animus-ui/next-plugin');
+
+module.exports = withAnimus({ system: './src/ds.ts' })({
+  // your existing Next.js config
+});
+```
+
+`withAnimus` composes with any existing `webpack` function in your config. It calls through to it after injecting its own rules and plugins, so existing webpack customizations are preserved.
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Required option">
+  `system` is the only required option. Omitting it throws at config-load time

+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+**`layers` example — inserting a reset layer before Animus globals:**
+
+```ts
+withAnimus({
+  system: './src/ds.ts',
+  layers: [
+    'reset',
+    'global',
+    'base',
+    'variants',
+    'compounds',
+    'states',
+    'system',
+    'custom',
+    'overrides',
+  ],
+})({});
+```
+
+---
+
+## The `.animus/` Directory
+
+On the first build (or `next dev` startup), Animus creates a `.animus/` directory at the project root. This directory contains generated build artifacts and must not be committed to version control.
+
+```
+.animus/
+  styles.css        — assembled stylesheet (variables + global + component CSS)
+  system-props.js   — runtime module for dynamic prop resolution
+```
+
+Add it to `.gitignore`:
+
+```
+.animus/
+```
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="Gitignore check">
+  If `.animus` is missing from `.gitignore`, the plugin emits a one-time warning
+  at startup.
+</Callout>
+
+**`styles.css`** is the complete stylesheet assembled in layer order. The Webpack loader injects a single `import '.animus/styles.css'` into your root entry file only — `app/layout.tsx` (App Router) or `pages/_app.tsx` (Pages Router) — preventing chunk duplication across routes.
+
+**`system-props.js`** is a generated ES module with four named exports consumed by the runtime:
+
+```ts
+export const systemPropMap: Record<string, string>;
+export const systemPropGroups: object;
+export const dynamicPropConfig: Record<
+  string,
+  {
+    varName: string;
+    slotClass: string;
+    transformName?: string;
+    scaleValues?: object;
+  }
+>;
+export const transforms: Record<string, Function>;
+```
+
+The `virtual:animus/system-props` specifier is redirected to this file via a `NormalModuleReplacementPlugin` that intercepts module resolution before webpack processes it.
+
+**Webpack alias** maps the `.animus/styles.css` import to its absolute path at project root, so the import works correctly regardless of where in the source tree it appears.
+
+---
+
+## External DS Package Support
+
+When your `system` file imports from an external design system package (a separate package in a monorepo or a published npm package), Animus needs to analyze the source of that package — not its compiled `dist/`. Builder chains only exist in TypeScript source; compiled output has already been transformed away.
+
+The plugin handles this automatically in two steps:
+
+**Step 1 — Source redirect.** A `NormalModuleReplacementPlugin` intercepts imports for detected external DS packages and redirects them from the package's `dist/` entry to its `src/index.ts`. This ensures webpack sees builder chains rather than already-emitted `createComponent` calls.
+
+**Step 2 — Loader allowlisting.** The webpack loader runs with `enforce: 'pre'` and normally skips `node_modules`. External DS package directories are added to an explicit allowlist, so the loader processes `.ts` and `.mjs` files from those packages.
+
+No configuration is required — the plugin reads your `system` file's imports, resolves them through the workspace `package.json` workspaces list (falling back to `require.resolve`), and sets up both mechanisms automatically.
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="Workspace packages">
+  The plugin walks workspace package entries first. If your DS lives in a
+  workspace, this is zero-config. For published packages not in a workspace,
+  `require.resolve` is the fallback.
+</Callout>
+
+---
+
+## SSR, RSC & Streaming
+
+**No hydration mismatches.** Class names are stable hashes derived from the style content at extraction time. Server and client produce identical markup.
+
+**RSC compatible.** Animus's styling layer contains no React hooks or context — `ds.styles()` calls are pure builder chains resolved at build time. Components styled with `ds.styles()` can render as React Server Components without a `'use client'` boundary.
+
+**No FOUC.** The generated stylesheet is a regular CSS file included as a `<link>` tag (via the CSS import in your root layout). Styles are available before any JavaScript executes.
+
+**Streaming SSR works.** There is no style injection that depends on render order or a render-to-string phase. All CSS is in the static stylesheet.
+
+**`compose()` with `context: true`.** The `context` option on `compose()` uses React context to propagate shared variant values across a component family. Context requires the client runtime, so any component using `compose({ context: true })` needs a `'use client'` directive. The webpack loader places the CSS import after the `'use client'` line to comply with the directive placement rules.
+
+```tsx
+'use client';
+// loader places: import '.animus/styles.css'; here
+
+import { compose } from '@animus-ui/system';
+// ...
+const Family = compose({ Root, Child }, { context: true });
+```
+
+**Remix.** Remix uses Vite as its build tool. Use the Vite plugin (`@animus-ui/vite-plugin`) directly in `vite.config.ts` — the configuration is identical to a standalone Vite project. The Next.js webpack plugin is not used with Remix.
+
+```ts
+// vite.config.ts (Remix)
+import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
+import { vitePlugin as remix } from '@remix-run/dev';
+import { animusExtract } from '@animus-ui/vite-plugin';
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [remix(), animusExtract({ system: './app/ds.ts' })],
+});
+```

+    'acme-states',
+    'acme-system',
+    'acme-custom',
+    'overrides',
+  ],
+});
+```
+</APIBlock>
+
+All 7 Animus layers must appear as a subsequence in their required order. Missing or reordered layers throw at build time.
+
+## Virtual Modules
+
+The plugin serves two virtual modules over Vite's module graph.
+
+### `virtual:animus/styles.css`
+
+The compiled stylesheet. Import it once in your app entry point.
+
+```typescript
+// main.tsx
+import 'virtual:animus/styles.css';
+```
+
+The module concatenates three CSS blocks in order:
+
+1. **Variable CSS** — `:root { --color-*: ... }` plus color mode selectors (`[data-color-mode="dark"] { ... }`)
+2. **Global CSS** — `@layer global { }` containing your `.withGlobalStyles()` reset and global blocks
+3. **Component CSS** — `@layer base / variants / compounds / states / system / custom { }` extracted from source files
+
+All three blocks are post-processed by Lightning CSS: autoprefixing, syntax lowering, and optional minification.
+
+### `virtual:animus/system-props`
+
+Internal module. Serves the group prop map JSON consumed by the runtime bridge. Do not import this directly — it is automatically injected by the transform hook.
+
+### Dev HMR
+
+In dev mode, the plugin invalidates `virtual:animus/styles.css` whenever a transformed source file changes. The HMR bridge delivers CSS updates without a full page reload for component style changes.
+
+**Content-hash skip:** Files that have not changed since the last analysis are passed to the Rust crate with an empty source string. The crate returns the cached result without reparsing. Only the changed file's source is transmitted across the NAPI boundary.
+
+**Geological reset:** If the system file (`ds.ts`) changes, the plugin triggers a full reload — re-running the bun subprocess to reload the system, re-evaluating all tokens, and re-running project analysis from scratch.
+

+
+### Subprocess Model
+
+The plugin spawns bun subprocesses for ESM isolation. The system module uses top-level imports that cannot be loaded into Vite's CJS plugin context directly.
+
+| Subprocess           | Purpose                                                          | Trigger                                   |
+| -------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
+| System load          | Import system module, call `.serialize()`                        | `buildStart`, geological reset            |
+| Global styles        | Resolve prop shorthand (bg → background-color) with transforms   | `buildStart`, after system load           |
+| Transform resolution | Apply `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders with live transform functions | After analysis, if named transforms exist |
+
+## Debugging & Diagnostics
+
+### Enable Verbose Logging
+
+```bash
+# Environment variable — no config change needed
+ANIMUS_DEBUG=1 bun run dev
+
+# Or in config
+animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts', verbose: true })
+```
+
+Verbose mode enables phase checkpoint output, per-file transform logs, file discovery counts, and HMR decision traces. All output is prefixed with `[animus]` for grep filtering.
+
+**Always-on diagnostics** (no verbose needed): reconciliation elimination warnings (`⚠ ComponentName eliminated`) appear whenever the pipeline prunes a component that extracted zero usable styles.
+
+### Diagnosing Common Failures
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="__TRANSFORM__ placeholders in CSS output">
+  If the compiled stylesheet contains literal `__TRANSFORM__` strings, the
+  transform resolution subprocess failed. Check the terminal for `[animus]`
+  warnings. This typically means a named transform function threw an error or
+  the system file could not be loaded.
+</Callout>
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="[skip] markers in extraction errors">
+  The style evaluator degrades gracefully: when a property value is non-static
+  (identifier, function call, ternary), it skips that property and continues.
+  `[skip]` markers in extraction output identify which properties were not
+  extracted. The component still works at runtime via dynamic props — only the
+  static CSS layer is missing.
+</Callout>
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="Stale .vite cache">
+  The Vite dev cache at `node_modules/.vite/` stores pre-transformed module
+  results across restarts. After changing NAPI function signatures or plugin
+  behavior, the cache may serve stale transforms even though plugin logs look
+  correct. Fix: `bun run clean:light` or `rm -rf node_modules/.vite/`.

+# Introduction
+
+## The Problem with Runtime CSS-in-JS
+
+Runtime CSS-in-JS libraries generate styles in the browser. Every component mount, every prop change, every theme switch triggers JavaScript that serializes style objects into CSS strings and injects them into the DOM. This work happens on the main thread, during rendering, on every page load.
+
+The cost compounds. A design system with 50 components, each with variants and responsive props, generates thousands of style rules at runtime. The JavaScript that computes these styles ships in your bundle, executes before paint, and competes with your application logic for CPU time.
+
+<MetricGrid>
+  <MetricCard value="~30" unit="KB" label="Emotion runtime (gzipped)" />
+  <MetricCard value="~18" unit="KB" label="styled-components runtime" />
+  <MetricCard
+    value="0"
+    unit="KB"
+    label="Animus style runtime"
+    deltaKind="good"
+    delta="No style computation ships"
+  />
+</MetricGrid>
+
+The runtime isn't just a bundle cost. It's a conceptual cost. When styles are computed at render time, the styling system must handle every possible input dynamically. Type safety becomes approximate. The gap between what TypeScript checks and what CSS actually renders grows with each level of indirection.
+
+## What Animus Does Differently
+
+Animus is a builder-chain CSS-in-JS library where every style declaration is statically extracted at build time. You author components using a fluent TypeScript API. A Rust-based extractor analyzes your source code, resolves token references against your theme, and emits a static CSS file organized into cascade layers. The components that ship to the browser are thin prop-to-className mappers with zero style computation.
+
+The builder chain enforces cascade ordering through the type system. Each method in the chain maps to a CSS `@layer`, and the type-state machine prevents you from calling methods out of order. This isn't convention — it's a compiler-enforced contract.
+
+<ChainStep
+  steps={[
+    {
+      label: '.styles()',
+      layer: 'base',
+      description:
+        'Foundation styles. Typography, layout, colors — the bedrock. Lowest specificity.',

+      layer: 'compounds',

+      layer: 'states',

+        'Boolean prop toggles. isLoading, isDisabled — semantic UI states as props.',

+    },

+        'Terminal. Produces a React component with ref forwarding and prop filtering.',
+      code: `.asElement('button')`,
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+The chain produces a React component. At build time, the Rust extractor walks the chain, resolves every value against your theme, and emits CSS. At runtime, the component maps props to pre-computed class names.
+
+## The Fundamental Trade-off: Static Values Only
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="The #1 Constraint">
+  All style values must be **static string literals**. No template literals, no
+  function calls, no variables, no ternaries. This is the price of zero-runtime
+  — the Rust extractor must resolve every value at build time.
+</Callout>
+
+This constraint shapes everything. Dynamic values that other CSS-in-JS libraries handle transparently — conditional colors, computed spacing, runtime-interpolated properties — must be expressed as static variants, boolean states, or system props in Animus.
+
+<BeforeAfter
+  before={{
+    label: 'Dynamic (skipped)',
+    code: `// This value can't be resolved at build time\nds.styles({\n  bg: isDark ? 'gray.900' : 'white',\n  padding: \`\${spacing}px\`,\n})`,
+    language: 'tsx',
+  }}
+  after={{
+    label: 'Static (extracted)',
+    code: `// These values are string literals — extractable\nds.styles({\n  bg: 'primary',\n  padding: 16,\n})\n.variant({\n  prop: 'mode',\n  variants: {\n    dark: { bg: 'gray.900' },\n    light: { bg: 'white' },\n  },\n})`,
+    language: 'tsx',
+  }}
+/>
+
+When a value isn't static, that **property** is skipped — not the entire component. The component still extracts every other static property. This per-property skip model means partial extraction is always better than all-or-nothing. See [Static Extraction & CSS Output](/docs/advanced/extraction) for the full skip model.
+
+## The Zero-Runtime Proof
+
+"Zero-runtime" means no style computation ships to the browser. It does not mean "no JavaScript." Animus components are React components that accept props and render elements. What's eliminated is the style serialization, injection, and computation that runtime libraries perform on every render.
+
+Here's what a component looks like before and after extraction:
+
+<CodeExample
+  inputLabel="source"
+  outputLabel="extracted"
+  input={`const Button = ds.styles({
+  display: 'inline-flex',
+  alignItems: 'center',
+  fontFamily: 'body',
+  color: 'text',
+})
+.variant({
+  prop: 'size',
+  variants: {
+    sm: { px: 8, fontSize: 13 },
+    lg: { px: 24, fontSize: 16 },
+  },
+})
+.asElement('button')`}
+  output={`/* @layer base */
+.animus-Button-a1b2 {
+  display: inline-flex;
+  align-items: center;
+  font-family: var(--font-body);
+  color: var(--color-text);
+}
+
+/_ @layer variants _/
+.animus-Button-a1b2--size-sm {
+padding-inline: 0.5rem;
+font-size: 0.8125rem;
+}
+.animus-Button-a1b2--size-lg {
+padding-inline: 1.5rem;
+font-size: 1rem;
+}`}
+/>
+
+The extracted component in your bundle is a `createComponent()` call — a thin wrapper that maps the `size` prop to the correct class name. No style objects are serialized. No CSS is injected. The `createClassResolver()` function resolves variant props to class name strings at render time, which is the same work React does for any component with conditional `className` logic.
+
+<BundleBar
+  items={[
+    { label: 'Styles JS', value: '0 KB', percent: 0, category: 'extracted' },
+    { label: 'CSS file', value: '~4 KB', percent: 40, category: 'static' },
+    { label: 'Component', value: '~0.3 KB', percent: 8, category: 'runtime' },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+The CSS file is a static asset — cached by the browser, loaded once, available before first paint. No FOUC. No hydration mismatches. No `useInsertionEffect`.
+
+## Who This Is For
+
+Animus is built for teams that author design systems as constrained component libraries. If you define a finite set of visual states — sizes, intents, density levels, color schemes — and want the type system to enforce that vocabulary, Animus makes the constraint the product.
+
+<Callout variant="tip" title="Good fit">
+  Design system authors, component library maintainers, and teams with mature
+  token systems where the visual vocabulary is intentionally finite. If your
+  components have a known set of variants and you want the compiler to enforce
+  that contract, Animus is built for you.
+</Callout>
+
+If you need fully dynamic styles computed from arbitrary runtime values — per-pixel drag positions, user-selected colors from a picker, animation keyframes generated from physics — a runtime library is the right tool. Animus optimizes for the 95% of component styling that is enumerable and static.

+  ]}
+/>
+
+### context: true — how it works
+
+When `context: true`, a `React.createContext` is created once at `compose()` call time. Root and all child wrappers are `forwardRef` components that either provide or consume it:
+
+- **Root wrapper**: extracts the shared prop keys from its received props and injects a `Context.Provider` inside its rendered output, wrapping `props.children`. The Provider is placed _inside_ Root's rendered element so portaled React children remain in the React tree and receive the context.
+- **Child wrappers**: read the context via `useContext` and spread inherited values under their own direct props — `{ ...inherited, ...ownProps }`. Direct props win.
+- **CSS-only mode** (`context: false`): all wrappers are thin `forwardRef` shims with no hooks. No context is created.
+
+```tsx
+// context: true — Root provides, all children consume
+const Dialog = compose(
+  { Root: DialogRoot, Content: DialogContent, Overlay: DialogOverlay },
+  { shared: { intent: true }, name: 'Dialog', context: true }
+)
+
+// DialogContent may be portaled outside DialogRoot's DOM subtree.
+// CSS descendant selectors cannot reach it — context bridges the gap.
+<Dialog.Root intent="danger">
+  {ReactDOM.createPortal(
+    <Dialog.Content>Destructive action</Dialog.Content>,
+    document.body
+  )}
+</Dialog.Root>
+```
+
+### shared validated against Root variants
+
+`shared` is type-checked against Root's `.variant()` config at compile time. Keys that do not exist on Root are type errors — not runtime errors.
+
+```tsx
+const CardRoot = ds
+  .styles({ bg: 'surface' })
+  .variant({ prop: 'density', variants: { sm: {}, md: {}, lg: {} } })
+  .asElement('div');
+
+compose(
+  { Root: CardRoot, Body: CardBody },
+  {
+    shared: {
+      density: true, // valid — Root has density
+      // intent: true, // type error — Root has no intent variant
+    },
+  }
+);

+## Return Type: ComposedFamily
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="ComposedFamily"
+  generics="Slots extends Record<string, unknown>"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="{ [K in keyof Slots]: ForwardRefExoticComponent<SealedProps<Slots[K]>> }"
+/>
+
+`ComposedFamily<Slots>` maps each slot key to a `ForwardRefExoticComponent` with sealed props. The wrapper components forward refs to the original Animus component.
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="Sealed output — no .extend()">
+  Composed slot components have no `.extend()` method. `compose()` is a one-way
+  door from builder-land to component-land. To extend a slot, extend the
+  original slot component before passing it to `compose()`, or export the
+  pre-composed component alongside the family for consumers to extend directly.
+</Callout>
+
+### SealedProps
+
+`SealedProps<C>` is the per-slot prop type used inside `ComposedFamily`. It reads the `ConsumerProps` phantom brand from the original Animus component via direct indexed access — no conditional inference through `ForwardRefExoticComponent<infer P>`. This avoids depth explosion in environments with extra type-checking overhead (e.g. Next.js TS plugin).
+
+`SealedProps` strips the `extend` method from the prop surface but preserves `ConsumerProps` and `VariantConfigBrand`, so `VariantPropsOf` continues to work on composed family members.
+
+### Root slot wrapper behavior
+
+- Accepts all props that the original Root component accepts, including shared variant keys.
+- When `context: true`: extracts shared prop values and provides them via `Context.Provider` inside its rendered output.
+- `displayName` is set to `"FamilyName.Root"`.
+
+### Child slot wrapper behavior

+- Accepts all props that the original child component accepts, including shared variant keys (for per-slot override).
+- When `context: true`: reads family context, merges inherited values under direct props — `{ ...inherited, ...ownProps }`.
+- When `context: false`: thin `forwardRef` wrapper with no hooks. CSS-only propagation.
+- `displayName` is set to `"FamilyName.SlotName"`.
+
+### Overriding shared values on a child
+
+A prop passed directly to a child slot overrides the inherited value. The extractor emits a second CSS rule per shared value — a direct `[data-*]` selector on the child class — which takes precedence in the cascade over the descendant selector from Root.
+
+```tsx
+// density="sm" on Root propagates via CSS to Header and Body
+// density="lg" on Body overrides the inherited value for Body only
+<Card.Root density="sm">
+  <Card.Header>Compact header</Card.Header>
+  <Card.Body density="lg">Spacious body</Card.Body>
+</Card.Root>
+```

+      <Card.Header>Section</Card.Header>
+      <Card.Body>{children}</Card.Body>
+    </Card.Root>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+For the full consumer prop surface of a slot — including HTML element props and state props — use `ComponentPropsWithRef<typeof Card.Root>`.

+
+`createSystem()` returns a `SystemBuilder` — an immutable, type-state accumulator that registers props, groups, and selector aliases. Every method returns a new builder instance with widened generics. `.build()` finalizes the accumulator into a `SystemInstance` and a `createGlobalStyles` factory.
+
+One system per application. Every component in the app imports from the built system instance.
+
+```ts
+import { createSystem } from '@animus-ui/system';

+
+Cascade order controls which state rule wins when two selectors apply at equal specificity. Built-in orders follow LVHA convention (link=10, hover=30, focus=50, active=70). Positional selectors (first, last) are at 400–410.
+

+      },
+    ]}
+  />
+</APIBlock>
+
+### Collision detection
+
+Group names and prop names share a flat namespace. The builder throws at runtime if:
+
+- The group `name` is already registered as a prop name.
+- Any prop in `config` is already registered as a group name.
+
+```ts
+createSystem()
+  .addGroup('space', space)    // registers props: m, p, mx, px, ...
+  .addGroup('space', { ... })  // throws — "space" already a group
+  .addProps({ space: { ... } }) // throws — "space" already a group name
+```
+
+### Overlap tolerance
+
+A prop name that already exists in the registry is allowed in `config` **if and only if the definition is identical** — same `property`, `scale`, `transform`, and `negative`. This lets multiple groups share a prop (e.g. `color` appears in both a `surface` group and a `text` group) without duplication.
+
+The builder throws when a prop is re-registered with a different definition:
+
+```ts
+createSystem()
+  .addGroup('surface', {
+    color: { property: 'color', scale: 'colors' },
+  })
+  .addGroup('text', {
+    // Allowed: identical definition
+    color: { property: 'color', scale: 'colors' },
+    // Would throw: different scale
+    // color: { property: 'color', scale: 'textColors' },
+  });
+```
+
+### Pre-built groups
+
+Pre-built groups are available from `@animus-ui/system/groups`:
+
+```ts
+import {
+  background,
+  border,
+  color,
+  flex,
+  grid,
+  layout,
+  positioning,
+  shadows,
+  space,
+  transitions,
+  typography,
+} from '@animus-ui/system/groups';
+
+createSystem()
+  .addGroup('surface', { ...color, ...border, ...shadows })
+  .addGroup('arrange', { ...flex, ...grid, ...layout })
+  .addGroup('space', space)
+  .build();
+```
+
+Spread pre-built group objects into `addGroup` config. Add inline props alongside the spread — append `as const` to entries with a `transform` key so TypeScript narrows the transform type:
+
+```ts
+.addGroup('layout', {
+  ...flex,
+  ratio: { property: 'aspectRatio', transform: ratio } as const,
+})
+```

+      },
+    ]}
+  />
+</APIBlock>
+
+`addProps` registers props that belong to no group. They appear on every component's system props surface but cannot be accessed via a group shorthand.
+
+```ts
+createSystem()
+  .addProps({
+    cursor: { property: 'cursor' },
+    userSelect: { property: 'userSelect' },
+    pointerEvents: { property: 'pointerEvents' },
+  })
+  .addGroup('surface', { ...color, ...border })
+  .build();
+```
+
+The same collision and overlap rules as `addGroup()` apply:
+
+- Prop names must not match any registered group name.
+- Identical prop redefinitions (same property, scale, transform, negative) are tolerated.
+- Divergent redefinitions throw.

+  `includes` is a static-analysis marker, not a type-level fiction or a runtime

+  declaration, resolves the package specifier, and walks the package's source
+  tree for components to extract. Runtime is no-op by design — all work has
+  already happened at compile time. This is the authoritative mechanism for
+  multi-package design-system composition.
+</Callout>

+
+```ts
+export const { system: ds, createGlobalStyles } = createSystem()
+  .addGroup('surface', { ...color, ...border })
+  .build();
+```
+
+The `system` return is renamed via destructuring. `ds` is the conventional name. All component authoring calls (`ds.styles()`, `ds.variant()`, etc.) go through this instance.
+
+### SystemInstance
+
+<TypeSignature
+  name="SystemInstance"
+  generics="PropReg extends Record<string, Prop>, GroupReg extends Record<string, (keyof PropReg)[]>"
+  params={[]}
+  returns="Animus<PropReg, GroupReg> & { toConfig(): SerializedConfig }"
+/>
+
+`SystemInstance` is the built system: an `Animus` builder instance extended with `toConfig()`. The builder chain is available on it. `toConfig()` is called by the Vite plugin subprocess — do not call it in application code.
+
+The generic parameters carry the full accumulated type state, which powers prop type narrowing on every component defined via the system.
+
+### createGlobalStyles
+
+`createGlobalStyles` is a factory for global and reset styles. It accepts a `GlobalStyleMap` — a nested `Record<string, Record<string, any>>` of CSS selector to style object — and returns a `GlobalStyleBlock` that the Vite plugin serializes into `@layer global`.
+
+```ts
+export const globalStyles = createGlobalStyles({
+  '*, *::before, *::after': { boxSizing: 'border-box' },
+  'html, body': { bg: 'bg', color: 'text' },
+  '::-webkit-scrollbar': { width: '3px' },
+  '::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb': { bg: 'scrollbar' },
+});
+```
+
+The `GlobalStyleBlock` return type has a `__brand: 'GlobalStyleBlock'` discriminant. The Vite plugin uses this brand to detect global style exports in the system module.

+
+# Getting Started
+
+Animus extracts styles at build time via a Rust compiler. You author components using a TypeScript builder chain; the extractor resolves every value against your theme and emits a static CSS file. Nothing runs in the browser.
+
+Prerequisites: a Vite + React project. **bun is required** — the extraction subprocess invokes `bun` directly.
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+bun add @animus-ui/system @animus-ui/vite-plugin
+```
+
+Create `src/ds.ts`. This file is the single source of truth for your design system — tokens, prop groups, and global styles all live here.
+
+## Define Your Theme

+  .addGroup('typography', typography)
+  .build();
+
+// ── Global Styles ─────────────────────────────────────────────
+
+export const globalStyles = createGlobalStyles({

+```
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Theme augmentation is required">
+  The `declare module` block merges your token types into the global `Theme`
+  interface. Without it, TypeScript cannot autocomplete scale values like
+  `'blue.500'` or `'space.16'` on style props. This must be in the same file as
+  — or imported by — any file that uses `ds.styles()`.
+</Callout>
+
+Three things happen in `ds.ts`:
+
+1. `createTheme()` builds your token set. `.addBreakpoints()` registers responsive breakpoint names. `.addColors()` registers static palette scales. `.addColorModes()` maps semantic names (`primary`, `bg`, `text`) to palette values per mode — the first argument is the initial mode. `.addScale()` registers typed numeric or named scale keys for spacing, font sizes, and more.
+
+2. `createSystem()` assembles prop groups. Each `.addGroup()` call maps a named group to a set of CSS properties. The groups you include determine which style props `ds.styles()` understands.
+
+3. `createGlobalStyles` is a factory returned from `.build()`. Call it to define document-level styles using the same token-aware prop system.

+
+## Build Your First Component
+
+```tsx
+// src/components/Button.tsx
+import { ds } from '../ds';
+
+export const Button = ds
+  .styles({
+    display: 'inline-flex',
+    alignItems: 'center',
+    justifyContent: 'center',
+    fontFamily: 'sans-serif',
+    fontWeight: '600',
+    cursor: 'pointer',
+    border: 'none',
+    borderRadius: '6px',
+    color: 'text',
+    bg: 'bg.muted',
+    transition: 'background-color 0.15s ease',
+  })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'size',
+    variants: {
+      sm: { px: 12, py: 6, fontSize: 14 },
+      md: { px: 16, py: 8, fontSize: 16 },
+      lg: { px: 24, py: 12, fontSize: 20 },
+    },
+  })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'intent',
+    variants: {
+      default: {},
+      primary: { bg: 'primary', color: 'bg' },
+    },
+  })
+  .states({
+    disabled: { opacity: '0.45', cursor: 'not-allowed', pointerEvents: 'none' },
+  })
+  .asElement('button');
+```
+
+```tsx
+// Usage
+<Button size="md" intent="primary">Submit</Button>
+<Button size="sm" isDisabled>Disabled</Button>
+```
+
+The chain terminates at `.asElement('button')`, which produces a React component with ref forwarding and automatic prop filtering. Only valid HTML attributes reach the DOM — variant props (`size`, `intent`) and state props (`isDisabled`) are consumed by the class resolver.
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Use ds.styles(), not animus.styles()">
+  Always use the `ds` instance exported from your `ds.ts` — not the bare
+  `animus` object from `@animus-ui/core`. The system instance is what the Vite
+  plugin identifies and extracts. Components built on the bare core are ignored
+  by the extractor.
+</Callout>
+
+All style values must be static string literals or numeric literals. No template literals, no variables, no function calls. The Rust extractor reads source text directly — it cannot evaluate expressions. If a value cannot be resolved at build time, that property is skipped (the component still extracts all other properties).
+
+Cross-reference: [Base Styling](/docs/authoring/base-styling) — [Variants & States](/docs/authoring/variants-states)
+
+## Wire Up the Plugin
+
+```typescript
+// vite.config.ts
+import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
+import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react';
+import { animusExtract } from '@animus-ui/vite-plugin';
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [react(), animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })],
+});
+```
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="No React resolve aliases">
+  Do not add `resolve.alias` entries for React or any package in
+  `vite.config.ts`. The extraction subprocess imports your `ds.ts` in a plain
+  Node context — aliases configured for the Vite bundle do not apply there, and
+  mismatched resolution silently breaks the transform pipeline.
+</Callout>
+
+Import the virtual CSS file at your entry point:
+
+```tsx
+// src/main.tsx
+import 'virtual:animus/styles.css';
+import React from 'react';
+import { createRoot } from 'react-dom/client';
+import { App } from './App';
+
+createRoot(document.getElementById('root')!).render(<App />);
+```
+
+The virtual module is created by the plugin at build start. It contains the complete extracted CSS organized into `@layer` blocks: `global`, `base`, `variants`, `states`, `system`. The import must appear before any component imports.
+
+Start the dev server:
+
+```bash
+bun run dev
+```
+
+Render your component and inspect the DOM — the `Button` element will carry a class name in the `animus-Button-*` pattern. Open DevTools and confirm the corresponding CSS rule exists in the `base` layer. If styles are missing, restart the dev server (the plugin holds extraction results in memory from `buildStart` — HMR does not re-run it for new files).

+
+# Migration & Adoption
+
+Practical guidance for adopting Animus alongside an existing styling system, translating runtime patterns to static equivalents, and estimating the work involved.
+
+---
+
+## Can I Adopt Incrementally?
+
+Yes. Animus components coexist with any styling system in the same application. The extracted output is a regular stylesheet — it has no opinion about what else is on the page.
+
+The plugin processes only files that use `ds.styles()` (or whatever your system instance exports). Files styled with Emotion, styled-components, CSS Modules, or plain CSS are untouched. You can migrate one component at a time without touching others.
+
+Within a single component, extraction is per-property. If a style config mixes static values with dynamic ones, static properties extract normally and dynamic ones are skipped. A partially-static component gets partial extraction — you do not have to convert everything at once before the component becomes useful.
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="No shared runtime overhead">
+  Once a component is fully migrated, it adds zero runtime style computation.
+  Partially-migrated components carry only the cost of their remaining dynamic
+  properties.
+</Callout>
+
+---
+
+## Common Refactoring Patterns
+
+The core translation problem: runtime styling systems express style as a function of props. Animus requires every style value to be a static literal. The patterns below cover the most common cases.
+
+### Dynamic values → variants
+
+A ternary or conditional that switches between two style values maps directly to a `.variant()` call. The variant prop replaces the boolean or discriminant that was driving the condition.
+
+<BeforeAfter
+  before={{
+    label: 'Emotion (runtime)',
+    code: `const Button = styled.button\`
+  background-color: \${props => props.isActive ? '#3b82f6' : '#9ca3af'};
+  color: white;
+  padding: 8px 16px;
+\``,
+    language: 'tsx',
+  }}
+  after={{
+    label: 'Animus (extracted)',
+    code: `const Button = ds.styles({
+  color: 'bg',
+  px: 16,
+  py: 8,
+}).variant({
+  prop: 'intent',
+  variants: {
+    active: { bg: 'primary' },
+    muted:  { bg: 'text.dim' },
+  },
+}).asElement('button')`,
+    language: 'tsx',
+  }}
+/>
+
+If the original component had more than two options (a switch or an object lookup), each case becomes a variant value. The exhaustive mapping is the same — only the declaration site moves from runtime to build time.
+
+### Interpolated props → system props
+
+Components that accept raw CSS values as props (padding amount, font size, gap) should use system prop groups instead. Enable the relevant group on your system and the props are handled structurally.
+
+<BeforeAfter
+  before={{
+    label: "styled-components (runtime)",
+    code: `const Box = styled.div\`
+  padding: \${props => props.p}px;
+  margin: \${props => props.m}px;
+  font-size: \${props => props.fontSize}px;
+\`
+
+// <Box p={16} m={8} fontSize={14} />`,
+    language: "tsx"
+  }}
+  after={{
+    label: "Animus (extracted)",
+    code: `// In your system setup
+createSystem()
+.addGroup('space') // enables p, m, px, py, mx, my, ...
+.addGroup('typography') // enables fontSize, fontWeight, ...
+.build()
+
+// Component accepts typed system props directly
+// <Box p={16} m={8} fontSize={14} />`,
+language: "tsx"
+}}
+/>
+
+System props accept the same scale keys as `.styles()` configs. The values must be static at JSX call sites for extraction — dynamic system prop values are runtime-resolved.
+
+### Theme access → token refs
+
+Runtime theme access via a theme context or CSS-in-JS interpolation translates to a bare scale key. The extractor resolves the key against the serialized theme at build time and emits a CSS variable reference.
+
+<BeforeAfter
+  before={{
+    label: 'Emotion with theme (runtime)',
+    code: `const Badge = styled.span(({ theme }) => ({
+  backgroundColor: theme.colors.primary,
+  color: theme.colors.background,
+  borderColor: theme.colors.border,
+  borderRadius: theme.radii.sm,
+}))`,
+    language: 'tsx',
+  }}
+  after={{
+    label: 'Animus (extracted)',
+    code: `const Badge = ds.styles({
+  bg: 'primary',       // → var(--colors-primary)
+  color: 'bg',         // → var(--colors-bg)
+  borderColor: 'border',
+  borderRadius: '4px',
+}).asElement('span')`,
+    language: 'tsx',
+  }}
+/>
+
+Use bare scale keys, not the `{colors.key}` interpolation syntax. The `{colors.key/opacity}` syntax is only for the opacity modifier — `{colors.primary/8}` for 8% opacity primary. For plain token refs, the bare key is the correct form.
+
+### css prop → .styles()
+
+Emotion's `css` prop and the `sx` prop pattern (Chakra, Theme UI, MUI) put style objects directly on JSX elements. Replace with a named builder chain. The style object contents translate directly — key-for-key.
+
+<BeforeAfter
+  before={{
+    label: "Emotion css prop (runtime)",
+    code: `function Card({ children }) {
+  return (
+    <div
+      css={{
+        display: 'flex',
+        flexDirection: 'column',
+        backgroundColor: theme.colors.surface,
+        color: theme.colors.text,
+        padding: '1.5rem',
+        borderRadius: '8px',
+        border: \`1px solid \${theme.colors.border}\`,
+      }}
+    >
+      {children}
+    </div>
+  )
+}`,
+    language: "tsx"
+  }}
+  after={{
+    label: "Animus (extracted)",
+    code: `const Card = ds.styles({
+  display: 'flex',
+  flexDirection: 'column',
+  bg: 'surface',
+  color: 'text',
+  p: 24,
+  borderRadius: '8px',
+  border: 1,
+  borderColor: 'border',
+}).asElement('div')
+
+function CardWrapper({ children }) {
+return <Card>{children}</Card>
+}`,
+language: "tsx"
+}}
+/>
+
+The key difference: the style object moves from the JSX site to a static builder call. The component is now a named, typed, reusable element — not an anonymous div with an attached style.
+
+---
+
+## Coexistence Constraints
+
+Animus components and other styling systems can share the same application, but a few configuration rules apply.
+
+### No React resolve aliases in vite.config
+
+The extraction transform runs a subprocess that statically analyzes your design system file. React resolve aliases in `vite.config.ts` — any entry in `resolve.alias` that redirects React imports — break this subprocess silently. Components in non-Animus files continue to work; only Animus extraction fails.
+
+```ts
+// vite.config.ts — do not add this
+export default defineConfig({
+  resolve: {
+    alias: {
+      // react: path.resolve('./node_modules/react'), // breaks extraction
+    },
+  },
+  plugins: [react(), animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })],
+});
+```
+
+This constraint applies globally — even one alias entry in `resolve.alias` that touches React will break extraction for all Animus components in the project.
+
+### Plugin processes all matching files
+
+`animusExtract` walks all files matching its default include pattern. If your project contains non-Animus files that happen to use the same builder method names (e.g. a different `ds` export), the plugin will attempt extraction on them. Use the `exclude` option to scope processing:
+
+```ts
+animusExtract({
+  system: './src/ds.ts',
+  exclude: ['**/legacy/**', '**/vendor/**'],
+});
+```
+
+Files that fail extraction emit a warning and fall through to the runtime path — they do not break the build.
+
+### CSS layer ordering and specificity
+
+Animus emits all styles into named `@layer` blocks (`@layer base`, `@layer variants`, `@layer states`, `@layer system`). Styling systems that do not use `@layer` emit unlayered CSS, which always wins over layered CSS in the cascade regardless of source order.
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Unlayered CSS beats @layer">
+  If another styling system on the page emits unlayered CSS that targets the
+  same elements as Animus components, those styles will win by default. This is
+  a CSS cascade rule, not an Animus bug.
+</Callout>
+
+To control layer position relative to other systems, use the `layers` option on the plugin to wrap Animus output in an outer layer:
+
+```ts
+animusExtract({
+  system: './src/ds.ts',
+  layers: 'design-system',
+  // Animus output emits inside @layer design-system { @layer base { ... } }
+});
+```
+
+Placing Animus inside a named outer layer lets you position it relative to any other `@layer` declarations in your application's CSS.
+
+---
+
+## Migration Effort Estimation
+
+The static constraint is the primary cost driver. The API surface is small — the time goes into classifying style values and deciding where dynamic values should live.
+
+**Trivially static components** — components whose style config contains only static literals, no interpolated props, no runtime theme access — migrate with a direct translation. Rewrite the config as a builder chain. Done.
+
+**Components with variants** — components that switch between discrete style sets based on a prop or state value. The work is enumerating the states and naming the variant. Cost scales with the number of distinct visual options, not with code complexity.
+
+**Components with heavy runtime interpolation** — components that accept arbitrary CSS values as props, compute styles from data, or apply gradients, animations, or dimensions derived at runtime. These require the most redesign. Each dynamic value needs a decision: can it be a variant? A state? A system prop? Or does it belong outside the Animus component, applied as an inline style or via a separate class?
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="Partial extraction is still a win">
+  A component that is 80% static and 20% dynamic gets 80% of its styles
+  extracted. The remaining dynamic values can stay as inline styles or be
+  addressed in a follow-up. You do not need a clean migration to get extraction
+  benefits.
+</Callout>
+
+### Planning heuristic
+
+| Component type                                | Migration effort                                         |
+| --------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
+| Purely static styles (no prop-driven changes) | Trivial — direct config translation                      |
+| Discrete visual options (2–5 variants)        | Low — enumerate as `.variant()` calls                    |
+| Boolean toggles (`isOpen`, `disabled`)        | Low — map to `.states()`                                 |
+| Arbitrary prop-driven CSS values              | High — needs redesign to static variants or system props |
+| Data-driven or animated styles                | Out of scope — keep as inline styles or CSS Modules      |
+
+The last category — styles that are genuinely computed from data — is intentionally outside Animus. The system draws a hard line: values that cannot be known at build time belong in the DOM via `style={{}}` or a separate dynamic class mechanism. Animus handles the structural and thematic layer; runtime variation belongs to the inline style channel.

+</Callout>
+

+
+## Silent Failure Diagnostics
+
+These conditions produce incorrect output with no console errors. They require active inspection.
+
+### Scale miss passthrough
+
+When a style value references a token key that does not exist in the theme, the Rust crate passes the raw string through as a literal CSS value. No warning is emitted.
+
+```tsx
+// "nonExistentToken" is not in the colors scale
+ds.styles({ bg: 'nonExistentToken' });
+```
+
+```css
+/* Output — browser ignores this, no error in console */
+.animus-MyComponent-a1b2 {
+  background: nonExistentToken;
+}
+```
+
+**Fix:** Audit the theme scale for the property. Use `verbose: true` during development to surface skip diagnostics.
+
+### Unknown selector aliases
+
+Selector aliases (e.g., `_hover`, `_groupHover`) that are not registered in the design system are silently dropped. The prop is not included in the extracted CSS.
+
+```tsx
+// _groupHover is only valid if registered on the system instance
+ds.styles({ _groupHover: { color: 'primary' } });
+```
+
+**Fix:** Verify the alias exists in your `ds.ts` system definition. Check that `addSelectors()` or equivalent was called with the alias name.
+
+### JSX spread hides variant props from the scanner
+
+`<Button {...props} />` cannot be statically analyzed. The JSX scanner cannot see which variant and state props are passed through a spread. The reconciler records zero usage for any variant option applied exclusively via spread, and prunes it before CSS emit.
+
+```tsx
+// Variant "danger" never appears as a literal prop in JSX
+// → pruned → no CSS generated for intent="danger"
+<Button {...buttonProps} />
+
+// This records usage — "danger" will extract
+<Button intent="danger" />
+```
+
+**Fix:** Apply variant props as direct literal attributes wherever possible. If a variant must be spread, accept that its CSS must be handled at runtime.
+
+### Per-property skip — partial extraction
+
+When a style object contains a non-static value (identifier, ternary, function call, template literal), the evaluator skips that property and continues. The component still extracts partially — static properties in the same object are not affected.
+
+```tsx
+ds.styles({
+  color: 'text', // extracted — static string
+  fontSize: 14, // extracted — static number
+  borderColor: themeVar, // skipped — non-static identifier
+  p: 16, // extracted — continues after skip
+});
+```
+
+Enable `verbose: true` (or `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1`) to see `[skip]` markers in extraction output identifying which properties were not extracted.
+
+<Callout variant="warn" title="Partial skip is per-property, not per-component">
+  A single non-static value does not bail the entire component. Only that
+  property is excluded from the static CSS layer. If you expect a component to
+  produce no CSS, inspect verbose output — static properties in the same object
+  will still extract.
+</Callout>

+
+## Common Error Messages
+
+### NAPI function errors / wrong arity
+
+**Cause:** The compiled `.node` binary does not match the current Rust source. This happens after pulling changes that update the Rust crate without recompiling.
+
+**Fix:**
+
+```bash
+bun run rebuild
+```
+
+### `__TRANSFORM__` strings in compiled CSS
+
+**Cause:** The transform resolution subprocess failed after NAPI analysis. The crate emits `__TRANSFORM__{name}__{rawValue}__` markers as placeholders; a bun subprocess is responsible for substituting them with the result of the named transform function. If that subprocess errors, the placeholders survive into the output stylesheet.
+
+**Fix:** Check the terminal for `[animus-extract]` prefixed warnings. Common root causes:
+
+- The system file (`ds.ts`) could not be loaded by the subprocess
+- A named transform function threw during resolution
+- An anonymous (inline) transform was used — these cannot be retrieved by name and fall back to the raw value
+
+Ensure all transforms used in extraction are registered by name via the system builder:
+
+```typescript
+// ds.ts — named, retrievable by the transform subprocess
+createSystem().addTransforms({ fluid: (v) => `clamp(...)` });
+
+// anonymous — NOT retrievable, placeholder survives as raw value
+createSystem().addGroup({ size: { transform: (v) => `clamp(...)` } });
+```
+
+### `[skip]` markers in verbose output
+
+**Cause:** The style evaluator encountered a non-static property value. This is expected degradation, not an error.
+
+**Fix:** If the skipped property needs to extract statically, replace the dynamic value with a static string literal or a token reference. See [Per-Property Skip](#per-property-skip--partial-extraction) above.
+
+### Component eliminated warning
+
+**Symptom:** Terminal shows `⚠ ComponentName eliminated` during build.
+
+**Cause:** The reconciler found that a component extracted zero usable styles after JSX scanning. The component is pruned from the manifest.
+
+**Common triggers:**
+
+- Component is defined but never rendered anywhere in the source tree
+- All variant options are only applied via JSX spreads (see [JSX spread](#jsx-spread-hides-variant-props-from-the-scanner))
+- Component uses `animus.styles()` from `@animus-ui/core` instead of `ds.styles()` from the system instance
+
+**Fix:** Verify the component is rendered with literal props. Confirm it uses the system instance (`ds`) not the bare `animus` builder.
+
+### Subprocess spawn error
+
+**Cause:** `bun` is not installed or not on `PATH` at build time. The plugin spawns bun subprocesses for system loading and transform resolution.
+
+**Fix:** Verify `bun` is on PATH:
+
+```bash
+which bun
+bun --version
+```
+
+If running in CI, ensure bun is installed in the CI environment before the build step.

+
+## Reading Extracted Output
+
+### Inspect the virtual stylesheet
+
+Open browser devtools and filter the Network tab for `styles.css`. The virtual module `virtual:animus/styles.css` loads as a single concatenated stylesheet with three sections:
+
+1. **Variable CSS** — `:root { --color-*: ... }` plus `[data-color-mode]` selectors (unlayered, highest precedence)
+2. **Global CSS** — `@layer global { }` — reset and global blocks from `.withGlobalStyles()`
+3. **Component CSS** — `@layer base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom { }`
+
+If the network request is absent, `virtual:animus/styles.css` was not imported in your app entry point. Add:
+
+```typescript
+// main.tsx
+import 'virtual:animus/styles.css';
+```
+
+### Class name anatomy
+
+```
+animus-Button-a1b2c3
+       │      └── hash of "src/components/Button.tsx::Button"
+       └────────── binding name (component variable name)
+```
+
+The hash is derived from the file path and binding name — not from style values. Renaming a component or moving it to a different file changes the hash. Changing a style value does not.
+
+### State and variant classes
+
+State classes use a double-dash separator between the component name and the state name:
+
+```
+animus-Button-a1b2c3--disabled
+animus-Button-a1b2c3--loading
+```
+
+Variant option classes include both the prop name and the value:
+
+```
+animus-Button-a1b2c3--intent-primary
+animus-Button-a1b2c3--intent-danger
+animus-Button-a1b2c3--size-sm
+```
+
+If an expected state or variant class is absent from the rendered element's class list, the component definition or JSX usage may have an extraction problem. Check the virtual stylesheet for the class definition — if it is absent from the CSS entirely, the option was pruned (see [JSX spread](#jsx-spread-hides-variant-props-from-the-scanner)).
+
+<Callout variant="info" title="Enable verbose logging">
+  `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1 bun run dev` (or `verbose: true` in the plugin config) enables
+  phase checkpoint output, per-file transform logs, file discovery counts, and
+  HMR decision traces. All output is prefixed with `[animus]` for grep
+  filtering. This is the primary diagnostic tool for extraction issues.

+# @animus-ui/system — Design System Builder
+
+Primary consumer package. Provides the builder chain API for defining components and themes. Extraction-compatible: every builder chain in this package is statically analyzable by the Rust crate.
+
+## Architecture Decision: Zero Internal Dependencies
+
+system's `package.json` declares one internal dependency: `@animus-ui/properties` (static CSS property data — unitless properties, shorthands). The builder-chain and theme-builder implementations live directly in `packages/system/src/` (`Animus.ts`, `AnimusExtended.ts`, `createTheme`, `ThemeBuilder`). Consumers install `@animus-ui/system` and get the complete API surface; `properties` is the only transitive `@animus-ui/*` install.
+
+Earlier iterations split the implementation across `@animus-ui/core` (builder) and `@animus-ui/theming` (theme utilities); both are archived under `legacy/` and no longer participate in the active build graph. See root `CLAUDE.md` § Legacy Packages.
+
+## Builder Chain: Type-State Machine
+
+The builder chain enforces cascade ordering via backwards inheritance. Each method returns a narrower type:
+
+```
+ds.styles() → .variant() → .compound() → .states() → .system() → .props() → .asElement()
+```
+
+This maps directly to `@layer base, variants, compounds, states, system, custom`. The ordering isn't just convention — it's enforced by the type system. You cannot call `.variant()` after `.compound()`.
+
+**Implementation:** 6 classes in `packages/system/src/Animus.ts` using backwards inheritance (child extends parent). Each class removes the methods that precede it in the cascade.
+
+## Terminals
+
+- `.asElement(tag)` — HTML element component, ref type narrows to tag
+- `.asComponent(Component)` — wraps existing React component
+- `.asClass()` — returns `(props) => className` (no React component)
+- `.extend()` — available on asElement/asComponent output, creates extension chain
+
+Composed output (via `compose()`) is sealed — no `.extend()` available.
+
+## compose() — Slot Composition
+
+```typescript
+compose(
+  { Root: RootComponent, Child: ChildComponent },
+  { shared: { size: true } }
+);
+```
+
+- `shared` config validated against Root's variant keys at the type level
+- Returns sealed `ForwardRefExoticComponent` for each slot
+- Root receives shared props and distributes via context
+- Children can override shared values via direct props
+
+## Serialization Contract
+
+Two serialize methods produce the inputs the extraction pipeline needs:
+
+**`ds.serialize()`** returns `SerializedConfig`:
+
+- `propConfig` — JSON map of prop name → `{ property, scale, transform, strict }`
+- `groupRegistry` — JSON map of group name → prop name array
+- `transforms` — live JS transform functions (not serializable, used by subprocess)
+
+**`tokens.serialize()`** returns `SerializedTheme`:
+
+- `scalesJson` — flattened theme: `"scale.key" → "value"`
+- `variableMapJson` — token path → CSS variable name: `"colors.primary" → "--color-primary"`
+- `variableCss` — `:root { --color-primary: ... }` declarations
+- `contextualVarsJson` — per-scale contextual variable names
+
+## Type System
+
+Key type utilities:
+
+- `ThemedCSSProps` — CSS properties narrowed by theme scales (nested selectors carry full constraints)
+- `EmittedScales<T>` / `EmittedTokenPaths<T>` — derive valid `{scale.key}` token ref paths from theme
+- `VariantPropsOf<T>` — extract variant prop union from component
+- `SharedConfig<T>` — validate shared keys against Root's variants in compose()
+
+Type tests run via `verify:types` (tsc --noEmit against `tsconfig.test-d.json`). Self-guarding pattern: unused `@ts-expect-error` triggers TS2578, making regressions self-detecting. For verification commands see root `CLAUDE.md` § Verification Tiers.

+# @animus-ui/system
+
+Design system builder for React. Type-driven CSS-in-JS with zero runtime — styles extract to static CSS at build time.
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+npm install @animus-ui/system
+```
+
+Pair with a bundler plugin for extraction:
+
+- [`@animus-ui/vite-plugin`](https://github.com/codecaaron/animus/tree/main/packages/vite-plugin) for Vite
+- [`@animus-ui/next-plugin`](https://github.com/codecaaron/animus/tree/main/packages/next-plugin) for Next.js
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### 1. Define tokens
+
+```tsx
+import { createTheme } from '@animus-ui/system';
+
+const tokens = createTheme()
+  .addBreakpoints({ sm: 480, md: 768, lg: 1024 })
+  .addColors({
+    gray: { 100: '#f0f0f0', 800: '#1a1a1a' },
+    blue: { 400: '#3d94ff', 700: '#003d99' },
+  })
+  .addColorModes('dark', {
+    dark: { primary: 'blue.400', bg: 'gray.800', text: 'gray.100' },
+    light: { primary: 'blue.700', bg: 'gray.100', text: 'gray.800' },
+  })
+  .addScale({ name: 'space', values: { sm: '0.5rem', md: '1rem', lg: '1.5rem' } })
+  .build();
+
+declare module '@animus-ui/system' {
+  interface Theme extends typeof tokens {}
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Create system with prop groups
+
+Pre-built groups ship with the package. Compose them into your own semantic groups:
+
+```tsx
+import { createSystem } from '@animus-ui/system';
+import {
+  space,
+  color,
+  typography,
+  border,
+  shadows,
+  background,
+  flex,
+  layout,
+} from '@animus-ui/system/groups';
+
+export const { system: ds, createGlobalStyles } = createSystem()
+  .addGroup('surface', { ...color, ...border, ...shadows, ...background })
+  .addGroup('space', space)
+  .addGroup('text', typography)
+  .addGroup('arrange', { ...flex, ...layout })
+  .build();
+```
+
+Each group becomes an opt-in set of props that components can enable via `.system()`:
+
+```tsx
+const Box = ds
+  .styles({})
+  .system({ surface: true, space: true })
+  .asElement('div');
+
+// Box now accepts: color, bg, border, shadow, p, m, gap, etc.
+<Box bg="surface" p="md" borderBottom="1" />;
+```
+
+### 3. Build components
+
+```tsx
+export const Alert = ds
+  .styles({
+    display: 'flex',
+    alignItems: 'flex-start',
+    p: 12,
+    borderRadius: '4px',
+    fontSize: 14,
+    lineHeight: '1.5',
+  })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'variant',
+    variants: {
+      filled: { color: 'background' },
+      outline: { bg: 'transparent', borderWidth: '1px', borderStyle: 'solid' },
+    },
+  })
+  .variant({
+    prop: 'intent',
+    variants: {
+      info: { bg: 'primary' },
+      danger: { bg: 'danger' },
+      success: { bg: 'secondary' },
+    },
+  })
+  .compound(
+    { variant: 'outline', intent: 'info' },
+    { borderColor: 'primary', color: 'primary' }
+  )
+  .compound(
+    { variant: 'outline', intent: 'danger' },
+    { borderColor: 'danger', color: 'danger' }
+  )
+  .compound(
+    { variant: 'outline', intent: 'success' },
+    { borderColor: 'secondary', color: 'secondary' }
+  )
+  .surface({ space: true })
+  .asElement('div');
+
+<Alert variant="filled" intent="success" m={8} disabled />;
+```
+
+## Builder Chain
+
+The chain enforces cascade ordering — each method maps to a CSS `@layer`:
+
+```
+ds.styles()    → @layer base
+  .variant()   → @layer variants
+  .compound()  → @layer compounds
+  .states()    → @layer states
+  .system()    → @layer system
+  .props()     → @layer custom
+  .asElement() → typed React component
+```
+
+The type system prevents calling methods out of order. `.variant()` after `.states()` is a type error.

+ * Keyframes primitive — top-level factory for declaring named CSS animations
+ * as a branded collection of typed per-key references.
+ *
+ * The returned collection is:
+ *  - Branded (`__brand: 'Keyframes'`) for plugin discovery via named-export scan.
+ *  - Carries raw frame data on `__frames` as `{ [key]: { name, frames } }`,
+ *    where `name` is the resolved keyframes identifier emitted into CSS.
+ *  - Exposes one `KeyframeRef<Name>` per named key — each ref coerces to its
+ *    resolved name via `toString()`/`valueOf()` for runtime-fallback paths.
+ *
+ * Naming: each keyframe's name is generated at authoring time via a
+ * deterministic FNV-1a content hash over its frame body (`animus-kf-<hash>`).
+ * Identical frame bodies dedupe into a single `@keyframes` emission naturally.
+ * The Rust extractor substitutes `motion.ember`-style member-expression
+ * references in component styles to the static name at emit time.
+ *
+ * Frame body vocabulary (narrower than component styles — factory is not
+ * system-bound, so prop-config resolution is not available):
+ *  - CSS property names (camelCase → kebab-case at emission)
+ *  - Raw CSS values
+ *  - `{scale.key}` token references (resolved via theme_resolver at emission)
+ *  - Bare scale keys (e.g. `textShadow: 'glow-text'`) are NOT resolved —
+ *    consumers must use `{scale.key}` form for theme-resolved values.

-
-## ThemeBuilder Architecture
-
-### Overview
-
-The ThemeBuilder provides a fluent, type-safe API for building themes with design tokens, CSS variables, and color modes. It follows a Producer-Consumer pattern where ThemeBuilder produces theme configuration and Animus consumes it via Emotion's ThemeProvider.
-
-### Core Components
-
-#### 1. Current ThemeBuilder Implementation (`createTheme.ts`)
-
-```typescript
-export class ThemeBuilder<T extends AbstractTheme> {
-  #theme = {} as T;
-
-  constructor(baseTheme: T) { /* ... */ }
-}
-```
-
-**Key Methods:**
-- `createScaleVariables(key)` - Transforms theme scales into CSS variables
-- `addColors(colors)` - Adds color tokens to the theme
-- `addColorModes(initialMode, modeConfig)` - Implements color mode switching
-- `addScale(key, createScale)` - Adds new scale to the theme
-- `updateScale(key, updateFn)` - Updates existing scale values
-- `build()` - Finalizes the theme
-
-#### 2. Legacy ThemeBuilder (`ThemeBuilder.ts`)
-
-Uses class inheritance hierarchy:
-```
-ThemeUnitialized → ThemeWithBreakpoints → ThemeWithRawColors → ThemeWithAll
-```
-
-### Theme Object Structure
-
-The built theme contains three critical structures:
-
-1. **Public Scales** (e.g., `theme.colors`): CSS variable references (`'var(--colors-primary)'`)
-2. **Private Variables** (`theme._variables`): CSS variable definitions
-3. **Private Tokens** (`theme._tokens`): Original values (currently redundant)
-
-## Design Token Resolution Process
-
-### 1. Token Definition Phase
-
-```typescript
-createTheme(baseTheme)
-  .addColors({ primary: '#007bff' })
-```
-
-### 2. Serialization Phase
-
-The `serializeTokens` function creates:
-- **Token References**: `{ primary: 'var(--colors-primary)' }`
-- **Token Variables**: `{ '--colors-primary': '#007bff' }`
-
-### 3. Storage Phase
-
-- `theme.colors.primary` = `'var(--colors-primary)'`
-- `theme._variables.root['--colors-primary']` = `'#007bff'`
-- `theme._tokens.colors.primary` = `'#007bff'`
-
-### 4. Injection Phase (Critical Gap)
-
-**Currently missing**: A mechanism to inject CSS variables into the DOM. Applications must implement:
-
-```typescript
-const MyGlobalStyles = () => {
-  const theme = useTheme();
-  return (
-    <Global
-      styles={css`
-        :root {
-          /* Inject theme._variables.root here */
-        }
-      `}
-    />
-  );
-};
-```
-
-### 5. Component Usage Phase
-
-```typescript
-<MyComponent color="primary" />
-```
-
-### 6. Style Resolution Phase
-
-1. `createPropertyStyle` invoked for `color` prop
-2. Calls `lookupScaleValue('primary', 'colors', theme)`
-3. Returns `'var(--colors-primary)'`
-4. Emotion generates CSS: `color: var(--colors-primary);`
-
-### 7. Browser Resolution Phase
-
-Browser applies styles using CSS Custom Properties from injected variables.
-
-## Animus Builder Integration
-
-### Architecture Overview
-
-Animus uses a class hierarchy with fluent API:
-```
-Animus → AnimusWithBase → AnimusWithVariants → AnimusWithStates → AnimusWithSystem → AnimusWithAll
-```
-
-### Integration Points
-
-1. **Theme Access**: Animus components receive theme via Emotion's ThemeProvider
-2. **Scale Lookup**: `lookupScaleValue` resolves theme values from scales
-3. **CSS Variable Support**: Animus treats CSS variable strings as opaque values
-4. **Responsive Breakpoints**: Both systems use `theme.breakpoints` for media queries
-
-### Value Resolution Flow
-
-```
-Component Prop → createPropertyStyle → lookupScaleValue → Theme Scale → CSS Variable → Browser
-```
-
-## Critical Integration Points
-
-### 1. Scale Value Resolution
-
-The `lookupScaleValue` function in core/src/scales/lookupScaleValue.ts:
-- Resolves values from theme scales
-- Falls back to compatTheme
-- **Limitation**: Doesn't support negative values (e.g., `m="-4"`)
-
-### 2. Responsive Values
-
-- **ThemeBuilder**: Creates breakpoint CSS variables
-- **Animus**: Uses breakpoints for media query generation
-- Both systems must coordinate on breakpoint definitions
-
-### 3. Color Modes
-
-Current implementation has complexity:
-- `_variables.mode` contains initial mode values
-- `_tokens.modes` structure unclear
-- Application responsible for mode switching logic
-
-## Recommendations & Improvements
-
-### 1. Simplify Theme Contract
-
-Remove `_tokens` from final output, keeping only:
-- **Public Scales**: CSS variable references
-- **Private Variables**: CSS variable definitions
-
-### 2. Provide Global Styles Utility
-
-```typescript
-export const createGlobalStyles = (theme) => {
-  const { root, modes } = theme._variables;
-
-  return css`
-    :root {
-      ${varsToCss(root)}
-    }
-
-    ${Object.entries(modes).map(([mode, vars]) => `
-      [data-theme='${mode}'] {
-        ${varsToCss(vars)}
-      }
-    `).join('')}
-  `;
-};
-```
-
-### 3. Support Negative Values
-
-Update `lookupScaleValue` to handle string-prefixed negatives:
-
-```typescript
-if (isString(val) && val.startsWith('-')) {
-  const positiveKey = val.substring(1);
-  const scaleValue = get(usedScale, positiveKey);
-
-  if (isString(scaleValue) || isNumber(scaleValue)) {
-    return `-${scaleValue}`;
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 4. Improve Color Mode Architecture
-
-Restructure `_variables` for clarity:
-```typescript
-{
-  _variables: {
-    root: { /* base tokens */ },
-    modes: {
-      light: { /* semantic aliases */ },
-      dark: { /* semantic aliases */ }
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 5. Type Safety Enhancements
-
-- Create comprehensive type tests for chained builder calls
-- Provide `GetAnimusProps<T>` utility type
-- Make `build()` method generic for better inference
-
-## Open Questions
-
-### Critical Architecture Questions
-
-1. **Variable Injection Strategy**: Should we provide an official `ThemeProvider` wrapper that handles CSS variable injection automatically?
-   - Current gap: Apps must manually inject `theme._variables` into DOM
-   - Consideration: Auto-injection could simplify setup but reduce flexibility
-
-2. **Migration Path**: How do we support gradual migration from literal-value themes to CSS-variable-based themes?
-   - Challenge: Mixed themes with both literal values and CSS variables
-   - Need: Clear documentation and tooling for incremental adoption
-
-3. **Performance Optimization**: Is the extensive use of `lodash.merge` in builder chains a performance concern?
-   - Impact: Each builder method creates new merged objects
-   - Alternative: Investigate more performant merge strategies or lazy evaluation
-
-4. **Type Complexity**: How can we simplify the generic type chains while maintaining type safety?
-   - Current: Heavy generic usage can create complex error messages
-   - Goal: Better developer experience with clearer type errors
-
-### Integration Improvements
-
-5. **Negative Value Support**: Should negative values use string prefix pattern (like Chakra UI)?
-   - Current: `lookupScaleValue` doesn't support negative theme values
-   - Proposed: Support `m="-4"` syntax for negative margins
-
-6. **Color Mode Architecture**: Should we simplify the current three-source-of-truth pattern?
-   - Current: `_variables`, `_tokens`, and public scales create confusion
-   - Proposed: Eliminate `_tokens` from final build output
-
-7. **Responsive Value Coordination**: How to ensure array/object responsive syntax works consistently?
-   - Need: Integration tests between ThemeBuilder breakpoints and Animus responsive arrays
-   - Challenge: Both systems must coordinate on breakpoint definitions
-
-### Developer Experience
-
-8. **Official Global Styles Utility**: Should we provide `createGlobalStyles` helper?
-   - Benefit: Standardized way to inject CSS variables
-   - Implementation: Could be part of @animus-ui/theming package
-
-9. **Theme Structure Validation**: Should we validate theme structure at runtime?
-   - Use case: Catch missing CSS variable injections early
-   - Trade-off: Runtime validation vs. bundle size
-
-10. **Documentation Gaps**: Which patterns need more comprehensive examples?
-    - Compound components with theming
-    - Global styles and CSS resets
-    - Performance optimization patterns
-    - Common UI patterns (modals, dropdowns, forms)
-
-### Technical Debt
-
-11. **Legacy ThemeBuilder**: Should we deprecate the class inheritance version?
-    - Current: Two implementations create confusion
-    - Migration: Need clear upgrade path for existing users
-
-12. **Theme Contract Clarity**: How to better document the theme object contract?
-    - Issue: Unclear when to use `_variables` vs `_tokens` vs public scales
-    - Solution: Clearer separation of concerns in documentation
-
-### New Questions from Real-World Usage Analysis
-
-13. **Gradient Token System**: How should gradient tokens be defined in ThemeBuilder?
-    - Observed: Components use `gradient: 'flowX'` tokens
-    - Need: Clear pattern for defining complex gradient tokens as CSS variables
-
-14. **Numeric Value Normalization**: How do numeric theme values (0, 1, 0.5) map to CSS?
-    - Observed: `width: 1`, `size: 1`, `left: 0.5` in components
-    - Question: Is this a percentage system or theme scale reference?
-
-15. **Semantic Token Categories**: What token categories should ThemeBuilder support?
-    - Observed: text-shadow tokens ('flush', 'link-raised')
-    - Observed: gradient tokens ('flowX')
-    - Question: How to organize non-standard CSS tokens?
-
-16. **WebKit-Specific Properties**: Should ThemeBuilder handle vendor prefixes?
-    - Observed: `WebkitTextFillColor`, `WebkitBackgroundClip` usage
-    - Challenge: CSS variables with vendor prefixes
-
-17. **Grid Template Token Support**: Should grid templates be tokenized?
-    - Observed: Complex responsive grid templates in Layout
-    - Consideration: Token vs. inline definition trade-offs
-
-18. **Animation Token Integration**: How should keyframe animations work with tokens?
-    - Observed: Imported keyframes used with Animus styles
-    - Question: Can animations reference theme tokens?
-
-19. **Performance Benchmarks**: What's the performance impact of CSS variables?
-    - Heavy use of pseudo-elements with gradient variables
-    - Need: Benchmarks comparing literal values vs. CSS variables
-
-20. **Custom Property Mappings**: Should ThemeBuilder know about Animus prop shorthands?
-    - Observed: `area` → `gridArea`, `gradient` → complex gradient
-    - Question: Where should this mapping knowledge live?

+# @animus-ui/vite-plugin — Extraction Plugin
+
+Vite plugin that bridges the Rust extraction crate with the build pipeline. Runs in both dev and production. Loads the design system via NAPI, runs project analysis, serves extracted CSS via virtual module, and transforms source files.
+
+## Plugin Lifecycle
+
+### `buildStart` (runs once on server start / build start)
+
+1. **Load system** — NAPI `loadSystemModule()` reads the system file, strips TS types via OXC, resolves workspace package deps, evaluates with rquickjs, returns propConfig + groupRegistry + tokens + selectorAliases + globalStyles
+2. **Discover files** — recursive directory walk for .ts/.tsx/.js/.jsx
+3. **Resolve packages** — reads system file imports, resolves external DS packages
+4. **Run analysis** — calls `analyzeProject()` from the Rust crate, produces manifest + CSS + per-component fragments
+
+### `resolveId` / `load` (virtual stylesheet)
+
+- Virtual module: `virtual:animus/styles.css` → `\0virtual:animus/styles.css`
+- Serves: `[variableCss] + [globalCss] + [resolvedComponentCss]`
+- Variable CSS = `:root { --color-*: ... }` + color mode selectors
+- Global CSS = `@layer global { reset + global styles }`
+- Component CSS = `@layer base/variants/states/system/custom { ... }`
+
+### `transform` (per-file source replacement)
+
+- Replaces builder chains with `createComponent()` calls
+- Adds `import 'virtual:animus/styles.css'`
+- Uses manifest from `analyzeProject()` for class names and configs
+
+### `handleHotUpdate` (dev HMR)
+
+- Content-hash check skips unchanged files
+- **Geological reset:** system file change → full reload via subprocess
+- CSS module invalidated alongside changed JS modules
+
+## NAPI Integration
+
+All heavy lifting is done in the Rust NAPI crate — no subprocesses needed.
+
+| NAPI Function          | Purpose                                                     | When                             |
+| ---------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------- |
+| `loadSystemModule()`   | Read system file, OXC strip, rquickjs eval, return config   | buildStart, HMR geological reset |
+| `analyzeProject()`     | Multi-file extraction, CSS generation, transform eval (boa) | buildStart, HMR re-analysis      |
+| `transformFile()`      | Per-file builder chain → createComponent() replacement      | transform hook                   |
+| `clearAnalysisCache()` | Reset per-file content-hash cache                           | buildStart, geological reset     |
+
+## Vite Cache
+
+**Location:** `node_modules/.vite/`
+
+This cache stores pre-transformed module results. It persists across Vite dev server restarts. When the extraction pipeline changes (new NAPI signatures, new prop config, etc.), the cache may serve stale transforms.
+
+**Fix:** `rm -rf node_modules/.vite/` or `bun run clean:light`
+
+## Known Failure Modes
+
+- **Dev server not reflecting changes:** The dev server holds `buildStart` results in memory. If you change the plugin source, restart the dev server. System file (ds.ts) changes trigger automatic geological reset via HMR.
+- **Vite resolve aliases break transforms:** Adding resolve aliases (e.g., for React) can cause Vite to discard transform hook results. The bundler treats aliased modules differently. Never add resolve aliases for packages used by extracted components.
+- **Stale `.vite` cache:** After changing NAPI function signatures or plugin behavior, delete `node_modules/.vite/`. Symptoms: transforms appear correct in plugin logs but bundled output uses old code.
+- **NAPI errors:** If `loadSystemModule()` or `analyzeProject()` fails, the plugin catches and warns (or throws in strict mode). Check terminal output for `[animus-extract]` warnings.
+
+## Verbose Mode / Debug Logging
+
+Enable with `ANIMUS_DEBUG=1` env var or `verbose: true` plugin option. All output prefixed with `[animus]` for grep filtering.
+
+Two tiers: reconciliation elimination warnings (`⚠ ComponentName eliminated`) are always-on. Phase timing, file counts, per-file transform logs, HMR decisions require verbose mode.
+
+The plugin runs from `dist/index.mjs` — after editing source, rebuild: `bun run --filter './packages/vite-plugin' build`.
+
+## Configuration
+
+```typescript
+animusExtract({
+  system: './src/ds.ts', // SystemInstance module (required)
+  strict: true, // Throw on extraction failures (CI)
+  verbose: true, // Enable phase checkpoints + timing (or use ANIMUS_DEBUG=1)
+  verify: true, // Run structural self-check at end of buildStart
+});
+```
+
+### `verify` option
+
+When `verify: true`, the plugin runs a structural self-check at the end of `buildStart` (after project analysis completes):
+
+- Component CSS non-empty (at least one component extracted)
+- Assembled CSS has `@layer anm-base` preceding `@layer anm-variants`
+- Variable CSS contains a `:root` block
+- No `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders in any CSS output
+
+Output is prefixed with `[animus:verify]`. Behavior on failure follows the `strict` option:
+
+- `strict: true` + verify failure → plugin throws, halting the build
+- `strict: false` (default) + verify failure → plugin warns via the Vite logger (or `console.warn`) and continues
+
+Success is silent unless `verbose: true`, at which point a single `[animus:verify] structural self-check passed` line is emitted.
+
+Pair with `scripts/verify/assert-vite.sh` (or `assert-next.sh` / `assert-showcase.sh`) for full-pipeline structural assertions against the built output.

+# @animus-ui/vite-plugin
+
+Static CSS extraction plugin for Vite. Transforms `@animus-ui/system` builder chains into static CSS at build time — zero runtime style injection.
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+npm install @animus-ui/vite-plugin @animus-ui/system
+```
+
+## Setup
+
+```tsx
+// vite.config.ts
+import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react';
+import { animusExtract } from '@animus-ui/vite-plugin';
+import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  plugins: [react(), animusExtract({ system: './src/ds.ts' })],
+});
+```
+
+The `system` option points to the file that exports your built system instance. The plugin loads this file in a subprocess to serialize the prop config and theme data for the Rust extraction pipeline.
+
+## What It Does
+
+1. **Build time**: Analyzes all files importing from `@animus-ui/system`, extracts static styles into CSS with `@layer` ordering
+2. **Dev server**: Runs extraction on startup, holds results in memory, serves CSS via virtual module
+3. **Transforms**: Resolves `__TRANSFORM__` placeholders using your system's named transform functions
+4. **Global styles**: Emits global styles (reset, base) from your exported `createGlobalStyles()` configuration
+
+## Important
+
+- Do **not** add React resolve aliases to `vite.config.ts` — they break the extraction transform pipeline
+- After system config changes, restart the dev server (the subprocess runs at `buildStart`)
+- Run `bun run clean:light` if styles seem stale (clears `.vite` cache)

+# `scripts/hygiene/` — End-of-Work Code Hygiene Cascade
+
+The `verify:*` tier family is read-only by contract. This directory holds the separate **mutating** surface, invoked at end-of-work only by humans or agents — **never** by CI.
+
+For verification tiers, see root `CLAUDE.md` § Verification Tiers. For the authoritative requirement surface, see `openspec/specs/code-hygiene/spec.md`.
+
+## Commands
+
+| Command                        | What it does                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   |
+| ------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `vp run hygiene`               | Default: scan mode on files changed vs `main`. Runs the cascade non-destructively, reports what would change, restores the worktree. Requires a clean worktree (aborts otherwise).                                                             |
+| `vp run hygiene --apply`       | Fix mode, changed scope. Runs the cascade destructively to convergence, then runs `verify:compile` + `verify:lint` as a safety envelope. On envelope failure: reports + exits non-zero WITHOUT auto-reverting — inspect `git diff` and decide. |
+| `vp run hygiene --all`         | Scan mode, full-repo scope. Same safety semantics as default.                                                                                                                                                                                  |
+| `vp run hygiene --apply --all` | Fix mode, full-repo scope. **Requires explicit confirmation**: TTY prompts `Type 'apply-all' to continue:`; non-TTY (agent) requires `--yes-apply-all`.                                                                                        |
+
+## Cascade
+
+Layer A oxlint safe + import removal (`vp lint --fix-suggestions` covers safe format-fixes plus unused-import deletion; `no-console` is explicitly excluded from auto-fix) → Layer C home-roll deleter (intra-file dead decls oxlint won't delete: top-level `const`/`function`/`let`/`class`/`type`/`interface`/`enum` + `namespace` + destructured-field cases) → Layer D `knip --fix` (cross-file unused exports/files/deps) → Layer D1 reconcile-after-knip (span-preserving fix-up: empty modules become `export {};`, stale barrel re-exports get the dead element span removed while retained-element trivia is preserved). Loops until git-diff stable or `--iterations=<n>` cap (default 5). Layer B was removed in Phase β: oxlint's `no-unused-private-class-members` is `#field`-only and does not fire on the TS `private` keyword Animus uses.
+
+## Verdict (presenter-derived, receipt-based)
+
+The orchestrator's exit code and summary are computed from `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl`, not from git-diff fingerprint stability (which is corrupted by idempotent A/B churn around whitespace/mtime). Three verdicts:
+
+- `converged` — final iteration emitted zero deletion-receipts and the cap was not hit. Exit 0.
+- `cap-hit-clean` — cap hit with zero deletes in the final iteration. Emits `INFO: cascade settled at iteration cap (idempotent A/B churn caused fingerprint drift)`. Exit 0.
+- `cap-hit-divergent` — final iteration still has deletes from Layer C/D/D1. Emits `WARN: cascade did not converge — Layer <X> still deleting at iteration N`. Exit non-zero.
+
+## Layer-Specific Notes
+
+**Layer D NOTE**: when receipts include ≥1 `layer="D" kind="file"` OR ≥5 `layer="D" kind∈{"export-clause","export-default"}` records, the summary appends a `NOTE` recommending `vp run verify:build:*` before committing. Build-time-only consumers (vite virtual modules, MDX, Rust extractor) are invisible to knip; the NOTE is a nudge, not a precondition. Does NOT change exit code.
+
+**Layer C code-drift WARN**: if oxlint reports diagnostics but ZERO of them match Layer C's `TARGET_CODES` after the `eslint(...)` wrapper is unwrapped, a `WARN: oxlint diagnostics present but none matched known codes — oxlint may have renamed.` line surfaces with the codes seen. Closes the session-89 silent-no-op regression class.
+
+## Preconditions and Safety
+
+**Dist-staleness precondition**: fix mode runs `require_dist_fresh_for_workspaces` before any layer. If any targeted workspace's `dist/` is older than its `src/`, fix mode exits non-zero with `ERROR: <pkg>/dist stale vs src. Run: vp run build:ts`. In scan mode the same condition emits `WARN` and the cascade continues. Knip resolves cross-workspace imports against `package.json` `main`/`module` (i.e., `dist/`); a stale dist can make knip flag live exports as unused.
+
+**Safety envelope**: fix mode runs `vp run verify:compile` + `vp run verify:lint` after the cascade. Failure does NOT auto-revert — the orchestrator prints recovery options (hard reset / fix forward / partial-keep via `git add -p`) and exits non-zero. The failure summary references `.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` as the postmortem audit artifact.
+
+**Recovery snapshot**: scan mode captures `git stash create` before the cascade and prints the SHA at end. Recover via `git stash store <sha> && git stash pop`.
+
+## Configuration
+
+**Base ref**: `--base=<ref>` or env `HYGIENE_BASE_REF=<ref>` (default `main`). Iteration cap: `--iterations=<n>` or env `HYGIENE_ITERATIONS=<n>` (default 5). `vp run hygiene --help` shows resolved defaults.
+
+## Postmortem audit
+
+`.hygiene/receipts.jsonl` is the structured per-layer deletion log written during the run (truncated at startup, single-run scope, gitignored). Every cascade-applied operation appends one v1-schema record:
+
+```json
+{
+  "v": 1,
+  "iter": 2,
+  "layer": "C",
+  "verb": "delete",
+  "target": "packages/system/src/util.ts:42",
+  "kind": "const-decl",
+  "extras": { "code": "no-unused-vars" }
+}
+```
+
+Required fields: `v` (schema version), `iter` (cascade iteration ≥1), `layer` (`A`|`C`|`D`|`D1`), `verb` (`delete`|`format`|`stub`|`drift-suspected`), `target` (file path with optional `:line` or `:exportName`), `kind` (semantic category like `named-import`, `const-decl`, `file`, `dependency`, `export-clause`, `code-drift`). Optional `extras` for layer-specific metadata. Parse with `jq -c` for ad-hoc queries; the spec at `openspec/specs/code-hygiene/spec.md` § "Cascade emits deletion-receipts" is authoritative.
+
+## Contract
+
+`vp run hygiene` (and equivalently `bash scripts/hygiene/run.sh`) MUST NOT appear in any `.github/workflows/*.yaml` step. It is end-of-work tooling invoked by humans or agents at change-completion, not a CI gate. Note: `bun run hygiene` returns "script not found" post-migration (the entry was removed from `package.json` per the hard-cutover migration), so the bun-side form is automatically excluded by absence. The `verify:*` tiers never mutate files; hygiene does. See `openspec/specs/code-hygiene/spec.md` for the authoritative requirement surface.

+# Code-hygiene corner-case fixtures
+
+Adversarial-corner-case fixtures for the home-roll deleter (Layer C) and the
+post-knip reconciler (Layer D1). Each fixture is a small TypeScript source
+exhibiting a known-tricky shape (overloaded functions, JSDoc trivia,
+namespace declarations, mixed type/value re-exports). Tests in the sibling
+`*.test.ts` files load these fixtures and assert the expected post-cascade
+shape.
+
+Layout:
+
+- `reconciler/<scenario>.ts.in` — barrel source (re-exports). Tests pair the
+  barrel with a synthetic target module whose actual exports are constructed
+  inline; the reconciler uses the target to detect stale re-exports and
+  applies span-preserving deletions to the barrel.
+- `deleter/<scenario>.ts.in` — TypeScript source containing dead declarations.
+  Tests parse synthetic oxlint JSON pointing at the dead-decl coordinates and
+  assert the deleter removes the right span without orphaning surrounding
+  trivia.

+// Pure analyzer of .hygiene/receipts.jsonl. Computes the cascade verdict
+// (converged / cap-hit-clean / cap-hit-divergent), Layer D volume signal,
+// and Layer C code-drift WARN — all derived from the receipt stream
+// rather than scattered orchestrator counters.
+//
+// Outputs:
+//   - prints summaryLines to stdout (one per line)
+//   - writes .hygiene/verdict.json with the structured Verdict
+//
+// run.sh reads verdict.json for the suggestedExitCode and exits accordingly.
+// Process exit here is 0 on a successful analyze; non-zero only on internal
+// error (presenter does NOT propagate the cascade's verdict via its own exit).
+//
+// Usage:
+//   bun run scripts/hygiene/presenter.ts [--cap=<N>]
+//
+// Cap is read from env (HYGIENE_ITERATIONS) or --cap= flag; defaults to 5.

+// Post-knip coordination pass. Knip 6.6.2's fixer is a single-pass text splice
+// with no post-state reasoning (verified against knip's IssueFixer source).
+// This script handles two coordination gaps:
+//
+//   1. 0-byte files. Knip strips all content but may not delete the file if
+//      something still imports it. TS then reports TS2306 "not a module" on
+//      consumers. Fix: write `export {};` so the file is a valid empty module.
+//
+//   2. Stale barrel re-exports. Knip removes a source export without rewriting
+//      barrels that re-export it — TS2305 ("has no exported member") and
+//      TS2459 ("declared locally but not exported") at the barrel's call sites.
+//      Fix: parse each barrel, check target file's actual exports, strip named
+//      re-exports for bindings no longer present.

+# `set -e`, that non-zero return aborts the caller script.
+#
+# Adding a new helper: follow the `require_<noun>[_<modifier>]` naming
