# Contents

|

What currently produced output (`PRODUCT.md`, `DESIGN.md`, `.impeccable/design.json`) maps to, category by category, against the proposed 8-category design context doc.
|
||||
|
||||
Source examples analyzed (local scratch runs, not tracked in this repo):
|
||||
|
||||
- `tmp/notes/init-tests/runs/noren-ops-20260708-1832/DESIGN.md` + `proof/PRODUCT.md` + `proof/design.json`
|
||||
- `tmp/notes/init-tests/runs/hanazono-atelier-20260708-1832/DESIGN.md` + `/Users/abdulwahab/hanazono-atelier/PRODUCT.md`
|
||||
|
||||
Every field below also has a provenance — derived from code, or from one of three questionnaire flows (in-chat during init, in-chat during document, browser during document — the last two cover both what's shipped today and the new seed work). See [`PROVENANCE.md`](./PROVENANCE.md) for the mechanism and [`CONTENTS-TABLE.md`](./CONTENTS-TABLE.md) for the per-field breakdown.
|
||||

|

|
||||
## Audience
|
||||
|
||||
*Who it is for, emotional state, needs, trust triggers.*
|
||||
|
||||
Found in:
|
||||
- `PRODUCT.md` → `## Users`
|
||||
- Primary/secondary role
|
||||
- Company context
|
||||
- Weekly rhythm
|
||||
- Job-to-be-done
|
||||
- `PRODUCT.md` → `Brand Personality` → "Emotional goal on landing"
|
||||
- e.g. Hanazono: "quiet authority"
|
||||
- Filed under Brand Personality today, but it's really audience emotional state
|
||||
|
||||
Gap:
|
||||
- No dedicated trust-trigger question in the Audience interview block. As of [PR #315](https://github.com/pbakaus/impeccable/pull/315), the *content* exists one category over — see Product → `## Conversion & proof` → "Proof on hand" — but nothing cross-references it back into Audience.
|
||||
- What exists instead (Rippling/Linear, Nicolai Bergmann/Cereal) are taste anchors, not trust signals
|
||||
|
||||
Tightened by PR #315 (not new content, but new rigor):
|
||||
- `## Users` now requires a confirmed primary/secondary split rather than an inferred one — no manufacturing a secondary audience that isn't there.
|
||||
- Explicit question when the surface's audience differs from who actually uses the product (e.g. a marketing site's visitor vs. an app's daily operator).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Product
|
||||
|
||||
*Purpose, differentiator, proof points, use cases, what must be clear first.*
|
||||
|
||||
Found in:
|
||||
- `PRODUCT.md` → `## Product Purpose`
|
||||
- What it does
|
||||
- The success definition
|
||||
- `PRODUCT.md` → `## Positioning` (added in [PR #315](https://github.com/pbakaus/impeccable/pull/315), both registers)
|
||||
- "The single strategic claim every screen reinforces"
|
||||
- This is the differentiator field, now explicit instead of buried in Design Principles
|
||||
- `PRODUCT.md` → `## Conversion & proof` (added in PR #315, **brand register only** — product register omits the section, heading included)
|
||||
- Primary and secondary CTA
|
||||
- The line a visitor remembers after 10 seconds
|
||||
- Belief ladder (what a visitor must believe, in order, before the primary CTA)
|
||||
- Proof on hand: testimonials, case studies, press, client/partner logos — referenced by path, collected under `.impeccable/assets/proof/`
|
||||
- This fills the proof-points sub-item directly, and the belief ladder / memorable line fill "what must be clear first"
|
||||
- Use cases — still only implicit
|
||||
- Hanazono's three commission lanes are named in Product Purpose
|
||||
- Noren's app routes (Dashboard/People/PTO/Onboarding/Settings) only show up in agent-log crawl notes, never written into `PRODUCT.md` itself
|
||||
- Untouched by PR #315
|
||||
|
||||
Gap:
|
||||
- Proof points / conversion framing don't exist for product-register projects — `Conversion & proof` is explicitly omitted there
|
||||
- Use cases remain implicit rather than an enumerated field, for both registers
|
||||
|
||||
Also mapped here (resolved orphans — see [`ORPHANS.md`](./ORPHANS.md)):
|
||||
- **Register** (`product`/`brand`) — travels with Product Purpose as the metadata switch for the rest of the doc
|
||||
- **Name** (`DESIGN.md` frontmatter `name`) — the literal project name; an identifier, not a design decision. (`description` moved to Brand — see below.)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Brand
|
||||
|
||||
*Identity, wordmark/logo fallback, voice, tone, cues, taste boundaries, anti-references.*
|
||||
|
||||
Found in:
|
||||
- `DESIGN.md` → `## 1. Overview`
|
||||
- Creative North Star name
|
||||
- Narrative + key characteristics
|
||||
- `PRODUCT.md` → `Brand Personality`
|
||||
- Three words
|
||||
- Voice, tone
|
||||
- References
|
||||
- `PRODUCT.md` → `## Anti-references`
|
||||
- Echoed in `DESIGN.md` Overview and `## 6. Do's and Don'ts`
|
||||
|
||||
Also mapped here (resolved orphans — see [`ORPHANS.md`](./ORPHANS.md)):
|
||||
- **Design Principles** (the numbered list as a unit) — e.g. "Quiet authority over persuasion," "Restraint in every frame" read as voice/taste judgment calls, closer to Brand's cues and taste boundaries than to Product's purpose/differentiator framing. Kept intact as a unit rather than decomposed per-bullet, even though a few individual principles (e.g. "One workspace, not three spreadsheets") lean Product.
|
||||
- **Description** (`DESIGN.md` frontmatter `description`) — the short form of the same Creative North Star narrative above, not a separate fact. Was bundled with `name` under Product; that was a mistake, since it's brand-identity content compressed to one sentence, not header metadata.
|
||||
|
||||
Gap:
|
||||
- Wordmark / logo fallback is completely absent in both examples
|
||||
- No logo file reference, no text-lockup rule for when no mark exists
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Color
|
||||
|
||||
*Palette, roles, tints, strategy, dark-mode inference, copyable values.*
|
||||
|
||||
Found in:
|
||||
- `DESIGN.md` frontmatter `colors:` block → palette + copyable hex values
|
||||
- `DESIGN.md` → `## 2. Colors`
|
||||
- `### Primary` / `### Neutral` → roles
|
||||
- `### Named Rules` → strategy (One Accent Rule, Humane Ground Rule, One Plum Rule, Warm Ground Rule)
|
||||
- Tints
|
||||
- Hanazono: opacity variants in frontmatter (`ink-muted`, `ink-subtle`, `divider`)
|
||||
- Noren: separate flat colors instead (`surface-raised`, `border-subtle`)
|
||||
|
||||
Also mapped here (resolved orphan — see [`ORPHANS.md`](./ORPHANS.md)):
|
||||
- **Tonal ramps** (`design.json` → `colorMeta.tonalRamp`, OKLCH 8-step ramps per color) — promoted out of the sidecar into the doc, alongside the canonical hex
|
||||
|
||||
Gap:
|
||||
- No dark-mode palette or inference logic anywhere
|
||||
- The tonal ramps could seed one (they're dark-to-light ordered already) but nothing does yet — promoting them into the doc is a first step, not the full fix

|
||||
## Typography
|
||||
|
||||
*Font families, hierarchy, font scale, readability rules.*
|
||||
|
||||
Found in:
|
||||
- `DESIGN.md` frontmatter `typography:` block + "Display Font / Body Font" callouts
|
||||
- `### Hierarchy` — role, size, weight, line-height, tracking, usage per level
|
||||
- Readability rules
|
||||
- ch-width caps
|
||||
- `text-wrap: balance/pretty`
|
||||
- Named Rules (One Voice Display Rule, Measure Rule, Homepage Italic Rule)
|
||||
|
||||
Gap:
|
||||
- Best-covered category, no real gaps
|
||||
- Possible exception: no explicit rule documenting non-Latin fallback rationale (Hanazono stacks Hiragino Mincho / Yu Mincho for Japanese rendering)
|
||||
|
||||
Planned (upcoming visual document seed, not yet shipped):
|
||||
- **Typescale** — a named modular scale/ratio (base size + ratio, e.g. Major Third) that generates the hierarchy, replacing hand-picked per-role sizes with a systematic rule.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Iconography
|
||||
|
||||
*Icon style, stroke weight, metaphor rules, icon-button behavior, allowed/forbidden icon types.*
|
||||
|
||||
Found in:
|
||||
- Nothing today. Zero mentions in `PRODUCT.md`, `DESIGN.md`, or `design.json` for either project
|
||||
- Closest adjacent item: Hanazono's don't — "no decorative floral motifs in UI chrome" — but that's illustration/decoration, not icons
|
||||
|
||||
Planned (upcoming visual document seed, not yet shipped):
|
||||
- **Icon library/style** — a direct question ("Which icon style should the design use?") with named library options (Lucide, Tabler Icons, Hugeicons), each with a one-line fit description.
|
||||
|
||||
Gap:
|
||||
- Library choice covers icon *style* only. Stroke weight, metaphor rules, icon-button behavior, and allowed/forbidden icon types are not part of this question and stay unfed even once it ships.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Material
|
||||
|
||||
*Radius, borders, shadows, elevation, surfaces, folds/edges, texture, motion feel.*
|
||||
|
||||
Found in:
|
||||
- Radius: `rounded:` frontmatter tokens / Hanazono's explicit "square corners, no border-radius"
|
||||
- Borders: Border Subtle / Hairline Rule / Lane Divider / CTA Stroke
|
||||
- Their color *values* live in the Color section — Material only gets them by reference
|
||||
- Shadows + elevation: `## 4. Elevation` section, backed by `design.json.shadows[]`
|
||||
- Surfaces: Surface Raised is written up under Color's `### Neutral`, not a Material section
|
||||
- Functionally a Material concept, textually filed under Color
|
||||
- Motion feel — scattered
|
||||
- `prefers-reduced-motion` compliance + per-component hover behavior in Do's/Don'ts and Components prose
|
||||
- Actual motion tokens (`ease-standard`, `duration-fast`) only exist in `design.json`, never surfaced in `DESIGN.md`
|
||||
|
||||
Gap:
|
||||
- Texture/grain and folds/edges have no field, not even to declare "intentionally none"
|
||||
- Both example systems are flat by doctrine, but there's no explicit material-honesty statement captured anywhere
|
||||
|
||||
Also mapped here (resolved orphans — see [`ORPHANS.md`](./ORPHANS.md)):
|
||||
- **Spacing / layout scale** (`xs/sm/md/lg/xl/gutter/section` tokens) — physical construction of the interface, alongside radius/borders/elevation
|
||||
- **Breakpoints** (`sm/md/lg` px values) — responsive behavior of the same physical system
|
||||
- **Motion tokens** (`design.json` → `extensions.motion`, e.g. `ease-standard`, `duration-fast`) — promoted out of the sidecar so the doc states the real easing curve and duration, not just qualitative motion feel
|
||||
|
||||
Planned (upcoming visual document seed — Layout structure already exists in today's seed, just not previously captured in this analysis):
|
||||
- **Layout structure / grid strictness** — "How strict should the layout feel?" with named points on a spectrum (Simple grid, Balanced, Editorial, Freeform). A rhythm/composition rule distinct from the spacing scale — this is about how strictly content aligns to a grid, not what the spacing values are.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Interface
|
||||
|
||||
*Buttons, inputs, cards/panels, rails, tabs, swatches, copy controls, component states, interaction patterns.*
|
||||
|
||||
Found in:
|
||||
- `DESIGN.md` frontmatter `components:` token bindings
|
||||
- `## 5. Components`
|
||||
- Buttons, Chips, Cards, Inputs, Navigation
|
||||
- Signature/future components: Metric Summary, Proof Quote, Commission Lane, Consultation Form, Gallery Grid
|
||||
- Component states (hover/focus/error/disabled) documented inline per component
|
||||
- `design.json.components[]` → concrete HTML/CSS per component
|
||||
|
||||
Also mapped here (resolved orphan — see [`ORPHANS.md`](./ORPHANS.md)):
|
||||
- **Accessibility & Inclusion** (`PRODUCT.md` · WCAG target, reduced motion, alt text, color-vision pairing, plain-language/bilingual notes) — kept as a unit rather than split; the majority of its actual content (keyboard nav, screen-reader behavior, focus visibility, alt text) is Interface, even though reduced motion (Material), contrast/color-vision (Color), and bilingual notes (Audience) also draw from it. Filed here instead of Material, where it originally landed.
|
||||
|
||||
Gap:
|
||||
- Best second-covered category
|
||||
- Tabs/rails/swatches/copy-controls aren't exercised by either example — reads as "not needed by these two fixtures," not "no place to go"

# What's Missing
|
||||
|
||||
Genuine content gaps not produced by either example run (`noren-ops-20260708-1832`, `hanazono-atelier-20260708-1832`), regardless of category.
|
||||
|
||||
## Resolved by PR #315
|
||||
|
||||
[pbakaus/impeccable#315](https://github.com/pbakaus/impeccable/pull/315) ("Expand init to capture positioning, conversion, and proof context") adds two new `PRODUCT.md` sections to the Step 3 interview in `skill/reference/init.md`:
|
||||
|
||||
- `## Positioning` (both registers) — "the single strategic claim every screen reinforces"
|
||||
- `## Conversion & proof` (brand register only; product register omits the section entirely) — primary/secondary CTA, the line a visitor remembers after 10 seconds, belief ladder, and "Proof on hand" (testimonials, case studies, press, client/partner logos — referenced by path, collected under `.impeccable/assets/proof/`)
|
||||
|
||||
What that resolves:
|
||||
|
||||
- ~~A labeled differentiator field~~ → `## Positioning` is exactly this, now asked explicitly instead of living buried inside Design Principles.
|
||||
- ~~Proof points as actual content~~ → `## Conversion & proof` → "Proof on hand" collects real testimonials/case studies/press/logos by path, not just the proof-quote UI container.
|
||||
- ~~A "what must be clear first" content-priority statement~~ → covered by the memorable-line + belief-ladder pair for brand register, and the pre-existing "primary workflow / primary task on any screen" question for product register.
|
||||
- Explicit trust-trigger content for Audience → the *content* now exists (proof assets), but it's captured under Product (`Conversion & proof`), not Audience. See the note in [`ORPHANS.md`](./ORPHANS.md) — this isn't a new orphan, just a reminder that trust-trigger content lives one category over from where "Audience" would intuitively look for it.
|
||||
|
||||
Also tightened (not a new field, but changes what's captured): `## Users` now requires an explicit, confirmed primary/secondary audience split — no manufactured splits, and a direct question when the surface's audience differs from who actually uses the product.
|
||||
|
||||
## Partially resolved by the upcoming visual document seed
|
||||
|
||||
Planned feature (not yet a PR): a new visual, card-based document seed adds three question areas — Typescale, Layout structure, and Iconography. Layout structure already exists in today's seed ("How strict should the layout feel?" — Simple grid / Balanced / Editorial / Freeform); Typescale and Iconography are new.
|
||||
|
||||
- ~~Iconography, full stop~~ → **partially resolved.** The new "Which icon style should the design use?" question captures icon library/style (Lucide / Tabler Icons / Hugeicons). Icon style itself is no longer a total gap, but stroke weight, metaphor rules, icon-button behavior, and allowed/forbidden icon types are not part of this question and remain open — library choice implies a default aesthetic, not a full spec.
|
||||
- Typography's font scale goes from hand-picked sizes to a named, generative rule: a base size + ratio (modular scale, e.g. Major Third) that derives the hierarchy, rather than each role's size being picked independently. Not something `MISSING.md` had called out explicitly before, but it's a real upgrade to how "font scale" gets captured.
|
||||
- Layout structure (grid strictness) adds a rhythm/composition rule to Material that neither example run's `DESIGN.md` states explicitly today — closest existing analogue is the spacing scale, but "how strict is the grid" is a distinct decision from "what are the spacing values."
|
||||
|
||||
## Not missing, but not resettable either
|
||||
|
||||
Everything answered today gets baked directly into prose with no persisted record of the original question/answer pair: `Questionnaire — In-chat (init)` (nearly everything in `PRODUCT.md`), `Questionnaire — In-chat (document)`'s shipped fields (`DESIGN.md`'s North Star/color narrative/elevation feel), and `Questionnaire — Browser (document)`'s shipped fields (today's Layout-strictness card UI). There's nothing to reset any of them *to* — a user who wants to redo just the brand personality answer, or just the layout-strictness pick, has to manually edit the doc, not reopen a slide. Only the new fields being added to `In-chat (document)` and `Browser (document)` by the upcoming seed work are getting the persisted/resettable treatment. See [`PROVENANCE.md`](./PROVENANCE.md) open question #1 for whether the already-shipped fields should eventually get it too.
|
||||
|
||||
## Still missing
|
||||
|
||||
Untouched by PR #315 and the upcoming visual document seed:
|
||||
|
||||
- Stroke weight, metaphor rules, icon-button behavior, and allowed/forbidden icon types within Iconography (library/style choice alone doesn't cover these)
|
||||
- Dark-mode palette / inference logic
|
||||
- Wordmark / logo fallback rule
|
||||
- Texture/grain and folds/edges material language (or an explicit "none, by doctrine" statement)
|
||||
- Conversion & proof content for product-register projects — the section is explicitly omitted there, so proof-point/trust-trigger content stays absent for product-register work (arguably correct scope for an internal app, but worth a second look if a given product-register project does have testimonials or logos worth capturing)

# Doesn't Have a Clean Place in the 8-Category Schema (Orphans)
|
||||
|

Present in current output, but no obvious bucket among Audience / Product / Brand / Color / Typography / Iconography / Material / Interface.
|
||||
|
||||
## Resolved
|
||||
|
||||
- **Register** (`product`/`brand`) → **Product**. It's the metadata switch that determines everything downstream, but downstream of what if not the product's own framing — it belongs next to Product Purpose.
|
||||
- **Name** (`DESIGN.md` frontmatter `name`) → **Product**. The literal project name — an identifier, not a design decision; travels with Product Purpose rather than standing alone. (Originally bundled with `description` as "header metadata," but `description` isn't metadata — see next entry.)
|
||||
- **Description** (`DESIGN.md` frontmatter `description`, e.g. "Calm HR ops workspace — dense tables, flat surfaces, dusty plum accent on warm cream.") → **Brand**, merged with Identity name + narrative. It's the same brand story as the `## 1. Overview` narrative, just compressed to one sentence — a short-form/long-form pair, not two separate facts. Filing it under Product next to `name` was a mistake carried over from treating the whole frontmatter block as one undifferentiated metadata unit.
|
||||
- **Design Principles** (the numbered list as a unit) → **Brand**. Kept intact rather than decomposed per-bullet. Individual principles split close to 50/50 between voice/taste judgment calls (e.g. "Quiet authority over persuasion," "Restraint in every frame" — Brand) and product/workflow claims (e.g. "One workspace, not three spreadsheets" — Product), but the majority reads as brand cues and taste boundaries rather than product strategy, so the list stays with Brand instead of Product.
|
||||
- **Spacing / layout scale** (`xs/sm/md/lg/xl/gutter/section` tokens) → **Material**. Treated as part of the physical construction of the interface alongside radius, borders, and elevation.
|
||||
- **Breakpoints** (`sm/md/lg` px values) → **Material**. Responsive behavior of the same physical system: how surfaces reflow.
|
||||
- **Accessibility & Inclusion** (WCAG target, reduced motion, alt text, color-vision pairing, plain-language/bilingual notes) → **Interface**. Per-item count across the two example runs: keyboard nav, screen-reader behavior, focus visibility, and alt text (Interface, the plurality) outweigh reduced motion (Material), contrast/color-vision pairing (Color), and bilingual/plain-language notes (Audience). Kept intact as a unit rather than split four ways, same treatment as Design Principles → Brand.
|
||||
- **Tonal ramps** (`design.json` → `colorMeta.tonalRamp`, OKLCH 8-step scales per color) → **Color**. Promoted out of the sidecar into the human-readable doc, alongside the canonical hex — gives dark-mode inference raw material to work from instead of staying generated-only.
|
||||
- **Motion tokens** (`design.json` → `extensions.motion`, e.g. `ease-standard`, `duration-fast`) → **Material**. Promoted out of the sidecar so the doc states the actual easing curve and duration behind "subtle lift on hover," not just the qualitative motion feel.
|
||||
|
||||
## Checked against PR #315 — no new orphans
|
||||
|
||||
[pbakaus/impeccable#315](https://github.com/pbakaus/impeccable/pull/315) adds `## Positioning` and `## Conversion & proof` to the `PRODUCT.md` template. Both map cleanly into the existing **Product** bucket, no new orphan:
|
||||
|
||||
- `## Positioning` → **Product**, filling the differentiator sub-item.
|
||||
- `## Conversion & proof` (CTAs, memorable line, belief ladder, proof assets) → **Product**, filling the proof-points and what's-must-be-clear-first sub-items.
|
||||
|
||||
One nuance, not an orphan: the CTA/conversion-goal content doesn't exactly match any of the five sub-items in Product's current definition ("Purpose, differentiator, proof points, use cases, what must be clear first") — it's closest to Purpose but is more actionable/specific ("book a consultation" vs. "why this exists"). Worth a small wording update to Product's definition (e.g. adding "conversion goal") rather than a schema change.
|
||||
|
||||
## Checked against the upcoming visual document seed (Typescale, Layout structure, Iconography)
|
||||
|
||||
No new orphans. All three land inside categories that already exist in the schema:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Typescale** (modular scale/ratio) → **Typography**, filling the font-scale sub-item with a generative rule instead of hand-picked sizes.
|
||||
- **Layout structure** (grid strictness spectrum) → **Material**, alongside the already-resolved spacing/breakpoints orphans — same "physical construction of the interface" bucket.
|
||||
- **Iconography** (icon library/style) → **Iconography** itself. This is the first content this category has ever had; it fills the "icon style" sub-item specifically, but stroke weight, metaphor rules, icon-button behavior, and forbidden types are outside this question's scope and stay open (tracked in [`MISSING.md`](./MISSING.md)).

# What We're Building (First Draft)
|
||||
|
||||
A visual, browsable rendering of the 8-category design context map — Audience, Product, Brand, Color, Typography, Iconography, Material, Interface — so a user can click through and see, category by category, what `/impeccable` already extracts from a project (and, later, what it's still missing).
|
||||
|
||||
This is the **WHAT**, not the how: scope and shape, not component code. Two sources feed it, each responsible for a different half:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Interaction mechanics** (the tile-grid landing, the click-to-fullscreen morph, hash routing, responsive collapse) come from the `Puppy Wear Design Context V2.html` prototype — see "Reference architecture" below.
|
||||
- **Visual UI** (the "inside" — sidebar, content layout, typography, color, both light and dark) comes from the live [impeccable.style/docs/](https://impeccable.style/docs/) page, i.e. the actual local files that render it in this repo — see "Local reference" below. Content and category definitions come from [`CONTENTS-TABLE.md`](./CONTENTS-TABLE.md).
|
||||
|
||||
Nothing here invents a third design language: the shape of the interaction is the prototype's, the skin is the live site's.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Reference architecture — interaction mechanics only
|
||||
|
||||
Source: `Puppy Wear Design Context V2.html` (local prototype, not in this repo). What we take from it is behavior and geometry — how the tile grid is arranged, how a click turns into a fullscreen view, how that view is structured into regions and addressed by URL. The prototype's own CSS for what fills those regions (its sidebar/topbar/row styling, its color palette) is **not** carried over — that's replaced wholesale by the live site's actual components, described in "Visual language" below.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Landing state** — an 8-tile asymmetric mosaic grid (an 18-column × 12-row grid with hand-placed spans per tile, matching the prototype's exact tile placement) with a circular center badge sitting on the seam between tiles. One tile per category — Audience, Product, Brand, Color, Typography, Iconography, Material, Interface — label only, no content, until opened.
|
||||
- **Open transition** — clicking a tile creates a container positioned/sized to start exactly at the clicked tile's on-screen rect, then animates position/size/corner-radius to fullscreen, with the inner content fading/sliding in after a short delay. Closing runs the same transition in reverse, back to the originating tile's rect, then removes the element. (This is the prototype's `.expander` / `.expander.is-full` / `.expander.is-ready` mechanism — same tween, same timing, just filled with the live site's markup instead of the prototype's own.)
|
||||
- **Detail shell regions** — once open, the view splits into: a **sidebar** (all 8 categories listed flat, in `CONTENTS-TABLE.md`'s order — Audience, Product, Brand, Color, Typography, Iconography, Material, Interface — active one highlighted, with jump-target sub-links for categories that have sub-content; no thematic clustering, unlike the prototype's own Context/Foundations/System grouping), a **topbar** (current category name + close control), and a **main pane** (that category's content, scrollable). What renders inside each region is the live site's, not the prototype's — see "Visual language."
|
||||
- **Hash routing** — the open category is reflected in the URL (`#color`), so it's deep-linkable and back/forward-navigable via `popstate`. `Escape` and the close button both dismiss it.
|
||||
- **Responsive fallback** (below ~920px) — the mosaic grid becomes a flex column, one tile per row in a fixed reading order (Product, Audience, Brand, Color, Typography, Iconography, Material, Interface); the sidebar collapses to a horizontal scroll strip.

| What it renders | File |
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
| `/docs/:slug` detail pages (one per command/reference topic — closest existing analog to a category detail view) | [`site/pages/docs/[...slug].astro`](../../site/pages/docs/%5B...slug%5D.astro) → [`site/layouts/Doc.astro`](../../site/layouts/Doc.astro) |
|
||||
| Shared sidebar (grouped nav, one entry per item, `aria-current` for the active one) | [`site/components/DocsSidebar.astro`](../../site/components/DocsSidebar.astro) |
|
||||
| Shared docs/sub-page layout shell (`.skills-layout`, `.skills-sidebar`, `.skills-main`, `.skills-detail`) | [`site/styles/sub-pages.css`](../../site/styles/sub-pages.css) |
|
||||
| `/docs`-specific dark-lacquer skin + the `html.light` remap for this section | [`site/styles/docs-kinpaku.css`](../../site/styles/docs-kinpaku.css) |
|
||||
| Sitewide brand tokens (colors, type) that everything above consumes | [`site/styles/kinpaku-tokens.css`](../../site/styles/kinpaku-tokens.css), [`site/styles/kinpaku-kit.css`](../../site/styles/kinpaku-kit.css) |
|
||||
| Sitewide light-mode override layer | [`site/styles/light-mode.css`](../../site/styles/light-mode.css) |
|
||||
| Theme toggle (auto/light/dark, `localStorage`-backed, sets `html.light`/`html.dark`) | [`site/scripts/utils/theme.js`](../../site/scripts/utils/theme.js), wired up in [`site/layouts/Base.astro`](../../site/layouts/Base.astro) (inline pre-paint script + `initThemeToggle()` call) |
|
||||
|
||||
We build against these files directly, in both resolved themes (`html.light` and `html.dark`), not a one-off recreation of how the page happens to look in a screenshot.

## UI sketch (ASCII)
|
||||
|
||||
Proportions are illustrative, not to scale — the point is the asymmetry and the center badge, not exact grid math. Labels like "sidebar" and "topbar" below are generic region names; what actually renders inside them is `DocsSidebar` / `Doc.astro`'s header+prose pattern per "Visual language" above, not the prototype's own chrome.

The sidebar is flat, in `CONTENTS-TABLE.md`'s own category order — no thematic clustering like the prototype's Context/Foundations/System groups. Decided; see "Decisions" at the end.

Two entry points worth calling out: a direct tile click always starts from the tile's own rect (so the morph has somewhere real to animate from), while a page load with a `#category` hash in the URL skips straight to `EXPANDED` — the prototype does this via a short `setTimeout` rather than an instant snap, so the shell still feels like it "arrived" rather than being static markup.

## Visual language — the inside (and the mosaic's skin) is impeccable.style/docs/, not the prototype
|
||||
|
||||
The prototype supplies geometry and motion (previous section). Everything you'd actually call "the design" — color, type, borders, the sidebar, how a list of facts is laid out — comes from the live `/docs` implementation listed above, applied in both the regions the prototype defines (mosaic tiles, sidebar, topbar, main pane) and rendered correctly in both themes.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Mosaic tiles (landing)** — keep the prototype's asymmetric grid *placement* (which tile sits where, the center badge), but the tile surface itself — border, corner radius, hover/focus treatment, background — pulls from the same surface tokens the rest of the site already uses for card-like elements (`--docs-panel-bg`, `--docs-row-bg`, `--docs-row-hover-bg`, `--docs-accent` from `docs-kinpaku.css`), so a tile reads as a natural extension of the site's existing surfaces, not the prototype's flat white/black `oklch(0% 0 0)` outline treatment. Tile label typography uses the site's existing display font (whatever `docs-kinpaku.css` / `kinpaku-tokens.css` already sets for large display text), not the prototype's Alumni Sans Pinstripe.
|
||||
- **Sidebar (inside)** — structurally and visually **`DocsSidebar.astro`**: the `skills-sidebar` / `skills-sidebar-label` / `skills-sidebar-list` / `aria-current` pattern, applied as a single flat `skills-sidebar-list` of all 8 categories in `CONTENTS-TABLE.md`'s own order (Audience, Product, Brand, Color, Typography, Iconography, Material, Interface) — no `skills-sidebar-group` clustering, since there's no thematic grouping to apply. Not the prototype's own `docs-sidebar` / `docs-nav-link` / `docs-subnav` CSS, nor its Context/Foundations/System clusters — those are discarded entirely; only the per-category jump-target sub-links survive as `docs-subnav`-equivalent behavior under the active entry.
|
||||
- **Topbar + main pane (inside)** — structurally and visually **`Doc.astro`**'s `.skills-main` / `.skills-detail` pattern: a header (`.sub-page-header` → `.sub-page-title` + `.sub-page-lede`) playing the role of the prototype's topbar-plus-title, followed by a content body (`.skills-detail-body.docs-body.prose`) playing the role of the main pane. Each category's Value / Derived-from / Source rows render as the same label-plus-secondary-line row shape the live `/docs` index already uses for its "Full command reference" list (primary text + a muted description line), not the prototype's bordered `.detail-row` two-column table look.
|
||||
- **Color's swatch fan / Typography's type sample / Material's line diagram** — these three specialized blocks have no equivalent on the live site (nothing there needs a color-swatch strip), so they're the one place the prototype's own markup and interaction *do* carry over structurally — but skinned with the site's color tokens, not the prototype's `--care-glow` / `--paw-proof` custom palette.
|
||||
- **Theme** — driven entirely by the existing toggle (`theme.js`, `html.light` / `html.dark`, wired in `Base.astro`). Both themes are first-class from the start because we're building against `docs-kinpaku.css`'s existing dark/light rule pairs, not authoring a new palette that then needs a light variant invented after the fact.
|
||||
- **Motion** — the tile→fullscreen morph timing/easing and the responsive breakpoint stay as defined in "Reference architecture"; none of that is affected by this section.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Content model
|
||||
|
||||
Source of truth: [`CONTENTS-TABLE.md`](./CONTENTS-TABLE.md).
|
||||
|
||||
- **Legend** (5 source types: Derived, Questionnaire — In-chat (init), Questionnaire — In-chat (document), Questionnaire — Browser (document), Computed) — surfaced once, not per category (a persistent key, e.g. a footnote strip or an info toggle in the topbar).
|
||||
- **8 categories**, each a list of rows: Value / Derived from / Source. Row counts vary today from 1 (Iconography) to 10 (Material).
|
||||
- To avoid a second hand-maintained copy of the same data, the first build pass should read `CONTENTS-TABLE.md` directly (parsed into a small structured module at build time) rather than re-typing rows into markup. This doc stays the single source; the page is a renderer, not a fork.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Explicitly out of scope for this first draft
|
||||
|
||||
- No live wiring to a real project's `PRODUCT.md` / `DESIGN.md` — this renders the fixed categorization, not a per-user report.
|
||||
- No authoring/editing UI — read-only browse experience.
|
||||
- Color's swatch-fan block (`.panel-colors`) carries over structurally, but `CONTENTS-TABLE.md` describes color *concepts* ("Palette (hex)", "Tints") rather than literal hex values — so it renders with placeholder/illustrative swatches for this first draft, not real per-project colors. Click-to-copy still works, just copies placeholder values.
|
||||
- No new visual theme, font, or motion language beyond what gets set up by the token swap above.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Decisions
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Sidebar grouping — flat, `CONTENTS-TABLE.md` order.** No thematic clusters (the prototype's Context/Foundations/System is dropped). All 8 categories sit at one level, in the exact order `CONTENTS-TABLE.md`'s own "Categories" list uses: Audience, Product, Brand, Color, Typography, Iconography, Material, Interface.
|
||||
2. **Verification pass — confirmed.** Once built, screenshot-compare against the real `/docs` and `/docs/:slug` pages in both `html.light` and `html.dark`, same as any other `docs-kinpaku.css`-consuming page — not eyeballed once in whichever theme happens to be active during development.
|
||||
|
||||
## Deferred
|
||||
|
||||
- **Where this lives** (a page under `/docs`, e.g. filling the existing unused `Design Context` → `/docs/context` stub in `manualTopics` in [`site/pages/docs/index.astro`](../../site/pages/docs/index.astro), vs. its own standalone route) is not being decided as part of this draft. Revisit once the build is closer.
