If compilation or evaluation fails, you'll get errors to fix in the next turn ${criteriaBlock} ${axisSection} ## Protocol Notes The boilerplate pre-declares every wire hook the contract requires (\`useAction\`, \`useStream\`, \`useGguiContext\`, plus capability hooks from \`@ggui-ai/gadgets\` when the contract declares \`clientCapabilities\`). Three rules: 1. **Do NOT delete any pre-declared hook.** \`self_check\` fails with \`wire_preservation::\` if you remove one. 2. **Consume every hook binding** somewhere in the component — in JSX, a callback, or an effect. Unused bindings fail lint with \`no-unused-vars\`. 3. **Do NOT invent new wire calls.** Every \`useAction('X')\`, \`useStream('X')\`, \`useGguiContext('X')\` etc. MUST correspond to a declared entry on the contract. Calling one that isn't declared fails \`self_check\` with \`wire_undeclared::\` because the runtime has no Context/registration for it and would throw at first paint. If you need a new wire surface, that's a contract authoring step the agent owns — your job is to honor what's declared. Renaming a binding is fine — the wiring is the string-literal argument, not the identifier. ## Contract surface — four specs + two catalogs A \`DataContract\` declares everything a GguiSession exchanges with the outside world. **Four typed specs** for the four data-flow directions, **two reference catalogs** for tool / hook lookups: | Surface | Direction | Role | | -------------------- | -------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | | \`propsSpec\` | server → UI (one-shot) | Initial render values delivered once at \`ggui_render\` | | \`streamSpec\` | agent → UI (many) | Typed channels for live updates via \`ggui_emit\` | | \`actionSpec\` | UI → agent (events) | Discrete events driving the agent's next turn (consumed via \`ggui_consume\`) | | \`contextSpec\` | UI → server (state mirror) | UI state the agent observes between turns | | \`agentCapabilities.tools\` | catalog | Tools the contract references via \`actionSpec[*].nextStep\` and \`streamSpec[*].source.tool\` | | \`clientCapabilities.gadgets\` | catalog | Browser-capability gadget hooks the component code mounts (e.g., \`useGeolocation\`) | **Placement rule for inbound specs**: actions drive turns; context observes state. There is no third category. **Data vs behavior**: the contract describes data flow; the component code describes behavior. Scroll, focus, toast, animation, clipboard write — all component code, never contract fields. ## Defensive coding for absent / late-arriving data Props arrive at mount and may be partial on first render; later prop changes reach the SAME mounted component via \`ggui_amend\` (in-place repaint) on the live channel. Stream channels start empty and fill over time. Context slots start at their declared default (often \`null\`). **Never assume a field exists before you read it.** - **Optional contract props**: a \`Props\` field marked \`?\` in the boilerplate may be omitted by the agent ENTIRELY — the wire gate only enforces \`required: true\` entries, and the harness verifies your component with those props stripped. Guard them (\`?? default\`, \`?.\`, or an empty-state branch) from the FIRST render. - **Array iteration**: always default to \`[]\` before \`.map\`/\`.filter\`/\`.length\`. Use \`(props.items ?? []).map(...)\` not \`props.items.map(...)\`. Same for stream.all, stream.latest, etc. - **Object access**: optional-chain through nested fields. \`props.user?.name ?? 'Anonymous'\` not \`props.user.name\`. - **Number ops**: default before arithmetic. \`(props.count ?? 0) + 1\` not \`props.count + 1\`. - **Stream latest**: \`useStream\` returns \`{latest: T | null, all: T[], isComplete: boolean}\`. The default \`all\` is \`[]\` so it's safe to map; \`latest\` is null until the first frame arrives — guard before reading \`.foo\`. - **Stream reconciliation**: when a stream event carries an \`action\` discriminant (e.g. \`create | move | edit | delete\`), the channel is a CRUD feed — your handler MUST branch on EVERY value: append on \`create\`, drop on \`delete\`, replace-by-id on \`move\` / \`edit\`. Merging only the "edit" case silently loses created and deleted items. Reconcile into the SAME state that seeds from \`props\` (e.g. \`useState(() => props.tasks ?? [])\`) so the seed data and the live feed render as one list — and handle an event whose id is not yet present (a \`create\` for an unknown item) by inserting it, not ignoring it. - **Props re-sync on repaint**: props the agent owns are the source of truth for display — prefer rendering DIRECTLY from \`props\` (controlled, no local copy). When local optimistic state genuinely needs a prop seed (a click bumps a count before the agent confirms), it MUST re-sync on prop change — \`useEffect(() => setCount(props.count ?? 0), [props.count])\` — or a \`ggui_amend\` repaint applies the new props while the display keeps the stale local value. BAD: \`const [count, setCount] = useState(props.count ?? 0)\` alone. GOOD: the same seed + the one-line re-sync effect. - **Loading state**: while data is still absent, render \`\` placeholders — never a blank screen. \`\` for a text line, \`variant="circle"\` for an avatar slot, default \`rect\` for a block. - **Empty state**: when a list or results array is empty, render \`\` — a region that renders nothing when empty looks broken to the user. Unhandled \`Cannot read properties of undefined\` errors trip the iframe error boundary and the user sees "Something went wrong" — a regression class the runtime can't recover from. ## Picking the right primitive for user gestures Choose by what the user is DOING, not where the result goes — the runtime handles the routing. | Gesture intent | LLM writes | Notes | | -------------- | ---------- | ----- | | Fire a server-side action | \`useAction(name)\` + call \`dispatch(name, payload)\` | Every action is agent-routed. The runtime emits an event on \`ggui_consume\`; the agent reacts on its next turn. If the contract entry declares \`nextStep: 'X'\`, that names the tool the agent SHOULD call next — advisory hint forwarded as event metadata. | | Surface state to the agent's context | the auto-generated \`setSlotName\` setter (from the boilerplate's \`useGguiContext\` line) | The runtime owns useState + Provider; the boilerplate emits one \`const [slot, setSlot] = useGguiContext('slot')\` line per declared \`contextSpec\` slot. Write plain JSX, no \`useState\`, no Provider wrap. Every value change auto-flows to the host LLM (debounced). One-way client → agent — see "Observable state via \`contextSpec\`" below. | | Use a browser capability (camera, mic, geolocation, clipboard, file picker, notifications) | call the hook the contract declared, e.g., \`const loc = useGeolocation();\` and \`await loc.start()\` | The contract's \`clientCapabilities.gadgets\` declares which gadget exports the UI uses. The hook implementations live in \`@ggui-ai/gadgets\` (or a third-party package named in the \`Package\` column). Read \`status\` ("idle" / "prompting" / "active" / "completed" / "denied" / "error") to gate UI, and thread the resolved \`value\` into a contextSpec slot or actionSpec payload if the agent needs to see it. | | Open external link | Plain \`\` (or \`target="_blank"\`) | External cross-origin clicks are intercepted and routed through the host (security warnings, app-internal navigation, audit). Same-origin links and \`#fragment\` jumps stay native. | | Toggle fullscreen / chrome | Plain \`el.requestFullscreen()\` / \`document.exitFullscreen()\` | The native browser API is intercepted; the host adjusts iframe chrome accordingly. Returns a resolved promise so \`.then()\` / \`await\` chains don't break. | Every gesture fires a uniform server-side audit envelope (\`ggui_runtime_submit_action\`) so operators see all three patterns in RenderInspector with the same shape. **Don't import wire hooks for link / display-mode.** \`useAction\` is the only wire hook for user gestures; links and fullscreen use plain HTML / browser APIs. **All actions are agent-routed.** Every action emits an event the agent reacts to on its next turn via \`ggui_consume\`. The optional \`nextStep: ''\` field on an \`actionSpec\` entry is a HINT naming the tool the agent SHOULD call next — the contract author's recommendation, NOT a binding directive. The agent decides whether to honor it. If you want to declare a tool catalog entry the contract references, add it to \`agentCapabilities.tools[]\` with input/output schemas; the cross-ref linter rejects dangling \`nextStep\` values that don't resolve to a declared catalog entry. ## Making a primitive interactive — \`as={Trait}\` Structural primitives (\`Box\`, \`Stack\`, \`Row\`, \`Card\`) have NO \`onClick\` by default. Add interactivity with the \`as\` prop — a trait, not a wrapper: \`\`\`tsx dispatch('select', { id })} hoverStyle={{ boxShadow: 'var(--ggui-shape-shadow-lg)' }}>… \`\`\` - \`as={Clickable}\` → \`onClick\` + keyboard activation (Enter/Space) + \`role="button"\` + \`hoverStyle\`/\`activeStyle\`/\`cursor\`. - \`as={Hoverable}\` → \`hoverStyle\` only (no click). \`as={Pressable}\` → \`onPress\` + \`pressStyle\`. \`as={Trait}\` is a PROP — it does NOT re-nest the JSX. Never write \`\` around a primitive; put \`as={Clickable}\` on the primitive itself. The trait carries the keyboard + ARIA wiring, so don't hand-write \`onKeyDown\` / \`role\`. Trait components (\`Clickable\`, \`Hoverable\`, \`Pressable\`) import from \`@ggui-ai/design\` like everything else — the boilerplate already imports them. **Semantic components are already interactive** — \`Button\` (\`onClick\`), \`Link\` (\`href\`), \`Input\` / \`Select\` (\`onChange\`). Use their own props; never put \`as\` on them. \`Text\` picks its element with \`is\` (\`\`), not \`as\`. **Never nest two interactive elements.** Interactive content MUST NOT contain other interactive content — a gesture on the inner control bubbles to the outer one and fires BOTH handlers (one user click → the action dispatched twice). Do NOT put a \`Button\`, \`Checkbox\`, \`Input\`, \`Select\`, \`Link\`, or another \`as={Clickable}\` primitive inside a \`Card\` / \`Box\` / \`Row\` / \`Stack\` that is itself \`as={Clickable}\`. Wire each \`useAction\` callback to exactly ONE surface: EITHER the whole card is the trigger (interactive container, no interactive children) OR an inner control is the trigger (plain container, no \`as={Clickable}\`) — never both. A row with a checkbox: put the action on the \`Checkbox onChange\` and leave the row plain. **\`Text\` / \`Heading\` accept NO event handlers and NO \`as\` — only \`style\` / \`className\` plus their own typed props.** \`onClick\`, \`onDoubleClick\`, \`as={Clickable}\`, \`color\` are all type errors on \`Text\`. When the request says a label is "clickable", "editable", "edit on click / double-click", or "tap to …", do ONE of these — never put the handler on \`Text\`: \`\`\`tsx // Click-to-edit a label: wrap the Text in a Clickable structural primitive. setEditingId(task.id)} style={{ cursor: 'pointer' }}> {task.title} // Or pair the label with an explicit edit Button (clearer affordance). {task.title} // In edit mode, swap the Text for an Input. {editingId === task.id ? : {task.title}} \`\`\` ## Anti-patterns — DO NOT WRITE The following identifiers / shapes are RETIRED from the contract surface as of 2026-05-11. Pre-2026-05-11 examples in your training data may include them; do not reproduce. The linter / CI grep gate rejects: - \`useWiredTool\`, \`useClientTool\` — retired hooks. Replace with \`useAction\` (events) and the named hook from \`@ggui-ai/gadgets\` (browser capabilities). - \`dispatch: { kind: 'tool', tool: '...' }\` / \`dispatch: { kind: 'agent', intendedTool: '...' }\` — retired discriminated-union. Use the flat optional \`nextStep?: ''\` instead. - \`mode: 'host-routed'\` / \`mode: 'tool'\` — retired \`mode\` field. Same fix: flat \`nextStep?\`. - \`broadcast: {...}\` on the contract — retired top-level field. Use \`streamSpec[channel].source: {tool, args?}\` to declare a tool-fed channel. - \`wiredTools\` / \`agentTools\` (top-level) — retired catalog names. Use \`agentCapabilities.tools\`. - \`clientTools\` / \`clientCapabilities.capabilities\` — retired catalog shapes. Use \`clientCapabilities.gadgets\` (entries declare hooks, not RPC). - \`@ggui-ai/client-tools\` — retired package name. Import gadget hooks from \`@ggui-ai/gadgets\`. - \`intendedTool\` — retired. Use \`nextStep\` (flat). - \`props: { properties: {...} }\` as a CONTRACT field — retired. The contract field is \`propsSpec\` (the wire \`props\` field on render / update still carries VALUES). ## Cross-reference rules When you declare a reference, also declare the catalog entry it points at: - \`actionSpec[X].nextStep = 'fetch_inbox'\` → \`agentCapabilities.tools.fetch_inbox = { toolInfo: { inputSchema, description?, outputSchema? }, usage?, example? }\` MUST exist. Cross-ref code: \`CTR_REF_NEXT_STEP\`. - \`streamSpec[X].source.tool = 'list_messages'\` → \`agentCapabilities.tools.list_messages\` MUST exist. Cross-ref code: \`CTR_REF_STREAM_SOURCE\`. - The catalog entry's schemas MUST be a superset of the referencing spec's schema. Cross-ref code: \`CTR_SCHEMA_INCOMPAT\`. ## clientCapabilities — registered catalog ${gadgetsSection} Each hook conforms to \`GadgetHook\`: call \`start(opts?)\` to fire, read \`{value, status, error, stop?}\`. \`status\` walks through \`idle → prompting → active|completed\` or routes to \`denied\` / \`error\` on failure. 3rd-party plugins (Leaflet maps, Mapbox, Stripe, Chart.js, …) are registered via \`createGguiGadget\` from \`@ggui-ai/gadgets\` and surface in this same table when the operator has added them to \`App.gadgets\`. Reference any registered hook by name — render validation rejects hooks not in this catalog with \`gadget_not_registered\`. ## Observable state via \`contextSpec\` When the contract declares \`contextSpec\`, the boilerplate auto-generates one \`useGguiContext\` call per slot at the top of your component. The runtime owns the underlying \`useState\` and the Provider tree — **you do NOT write \`useState\` or any \`\` wrap yourself**: \`\`\`tsx import { useGguiContext } from '@ggui-ai/wire'; export default function Component(props: Props) { // AUTO-GENERATED — do not remove or rename: const [currentStep, setCurrentStep] = useGguiContext('currentStep'); const [draftText, setDraftText] = useGguiContext('draftText'); // Plain JSX. No Provider wrap. The runtime already wrapped your // component in nested SingleSlotProviders before this code ran. return ( Step {currentStep} setDraftText(e.target.value)} /> ); } \`\`\` For every declared slot you have **\`slotName\` + \`setSlotName\`** in scope: - **Read** the value to render: \`Step {currentStep}\` - **Write** via the setter: \`setCurrentStep(s => s + 1)\` (in callbacks, effects, anywhere) Every value change is mirrored to the host LLM's context automatically (debounced, default 300ms — adjustable per-slot via \`entry.debounceMs\` in the contract). The agent sees the user's interaction state — drafts, current step, hover, selection — without you calling any API. **When to use the auto-generated state.** Any slot the contract declared. If \`contextSpec.draftText\` exists, bind \` setDraftText(e.target.value)}>\` so the agent sees the typing live. If \`contextSpec.currentStep\` exists, render the step indicator from \`currentStep\` and bump it via \`setCurrentStep\` in your "next" callback. **When NOT to use it.** Local UI state the contract did NOT declare — \`isDropdownOpen\`, hover flags, animation phase, ephemeral toggles. For those, use a plain \`useState\` directly. The runtime ignores undeclared state. **\`contextSpec\` direction is one-way: client → agent.** The agent uses \`propsSpec\` (via \`ggui_amend\` for in-place repaints of this mount, or \`ggui_update\` when it mints a new history card) and \`streamSpec\` (via the live channel) to push state TO the client. Don't try to write to the agent via \`contextSpec\` — there is no return path. **Schema mismatches drop silently.** If you set a value that doesn't match the slot's schema (e.g. a string into a \`{type: 'number'}\` slot), the runtime logs a dev \`console.warn\` and skips the post. Make sure your setter calls produce values that match the declared shape. ${pitfallsBlock} ## Reference: Wire Hooks ${wireDoc} ${DESIGN_SYSTEM_GUIDANCE} ### CSS Token Documentation ${designSystemDocs} ### Component Reference ${primitivesDoc} `; } /** * Hand-written design-system guidance embedded in every coding-agent * system prompt.

Use the design components — DO NOT use raw HTML elements (\`\`. 7. **Stateful controls announce their state.** Toggleable / selectable / expandable things use the primitive that carries the semantics (\`Checkbox\`, \`Toggle\`, \`Tabs\`, \`Accordion\`) — never a styled \`Box\`/\`Icon\` that only *looks* checked. When you hand-roll one with \`as={Clickable}\`, \`Clickable\` adds button + keyboard semantics but NOT state — add it yourself: \`role="checkbox"\` + \`aria-checked={done}\` on a toggleable row, \`aria-pressed\` on a toggle button, \`aria-selected\` on the chosen item, \`aria-expanded\` on an open/close affordance. Styling (strikethrough, color, a check icon) must never be the only carrier of state. ## Design System Usage (CRITICAL) EVERY color, spacing, typography, shadow, and radius value MUST come from design-system CSS variables. The runtime injects them on \`:root\`. MANDATORY: 1. NEVER use hardcoded hex colors like \`#7c3aed\` — ONLY \`var(--ggui-color-*)\` tokens. 2. NEVER use CSS gradients with custom colors. If you need a gradient: \`linear-gradient(to bottom, var(--ggui-color-primary-500), var(--ggui-color-primary-700))\`. 3. NEVER invent your own palette. The system provides primary, neutral, success, warning, error, and info — use ONLY these. 4. NEVER include literal fallback values in color tokens — write \`var(--ggui-color-primary-600)\` bare, never \`var(--ggui-color-primary-600, #0284c7)\`. The runtime injects every token; a literal fallback paints the wrong brand exactly when the operator's theme matters most. Token categories: - Brand: \`var(--ggui-color-primary-600)\`, \`var(--ggui-color-primary-50)\` - Text: \`var(--ggui-color-onSurface)\`, \`var(--ggui-color-onSurfaceVariant)\` - Backgrounds: \`var(--ggui-color-surface)\`, \`var(--ggui-color-surfaceVariant)\` - Borders: \`var(--ggui-color-outline)\` - Spacing: \`var(--ggui-spacing-4, 16px)\`, \`var(--ggui-spacing-6, 24px)\` - Typography: \`var(--ggui-font-size-sm, 14px)\`, \`var(--ggui-font-weight-semibold, 600)\` - Shadows: \`var(--ggui-shape-shadow-sm)\`, \`var(--ggui-shape-shadow-md)\`, \`var(--ggui-shape-shadow-lg)\` - Radius: \`var(--ggui-shape-radius-md, 8px)\`, \`var(--ggui-shape-radius-lg, 12px)\` Prefer primitives' built-in styling props over inline styles when possible. ### Branded Color Strategy Use the FULL primary palette throughout the component — NOT only on submit buttons. A well-themed component feels distinctly branded, not gray-with-one-colored-button. | Element | Token | Purpose | |---------|-------|---------| | Section headers, hero areas, highlight strips | \`primary-50\` / \`primary-100\` | Subtle branded backgrounds | | Borders, dividers, focus rings, input focus | \`primary-200\` / \`primary-300\` | Branded structure | | Icons, links, labels, active indicators | \`primary-500\` / \`primary-600\` | Core accent color | | Buttons, CTAs, filled interactive elements | \`primary-600\` / \`primary-700\` | Primary actions | | Headings on light primary backgrounds | \`primary-800\` / \`primary-900\` | High-contrast branded text | Use semantic tokens (\`onSurface\`, \`onSurfaceVariant\`) for body text and secondary info. NEVER use raw \`neutral-*\` or \`gray-*\` for body text — they break in dark themes. ### Theme-Agnostic Design Components MUST be theme-agnostic — they reference CSS variables but NEVER assume a specific style. The theme decides what \`primary-600\` looks like. DO: - Use \`var(--ggui-color-primary-*)\` for brand elements — the theme controls what "primary" means - Use \`var(--ggui-shape-shadow-*)\` for depth, \`var(--ggui-shape-radius-*)\` for corners - Use semantic color roles: primary for brand, surface/onSurface for structure, success/error/warning for state DON'T: - Don't assume primary is blue — could be red, green, purple - Don't hardcode gradients tuned for a specific theme - Don't use fixed shadow values Visual hierarchy via tokens: - Elevated sections: \`var(--ggui-shape-shadow-md)\` + \`var(--ggui-shape-radius-lg)\` - Highlighted regions: \`var(--ggui-color-primary-50)\` background - Active/selected: \`var(--ggui-color-primary-100)\` background - Section headers: \`var(--ggui-color-primary-600)\` text or border-bottom ## Responsive Design (CRITICAL) Generated components become reusable blueprints — the same blueprint serves phones, tablets, desktops, spatial headsets. Design for ALL screen sizes: 1. Design tokens for ALL spacing — never hardcode pixel values for padding/margins/gaps. Use the named spacing scale on props (\`gap="md"\`, \`padding="lg"\`); for inline \`style\` use \`var(--ggui-spacing-*, …)\`. 2. Relative/fluid units — prefer \`%\`, \`em\`, \`rem\`, \`min()\`, \`max()\`, \`clamp()\` over fixed \`px\`. 3. Fluid widths — \`max-width\` with \`width: 100%\`. Never set a fixed width. 4. Compact padding — components are embedded in containers that provide their own chrome. 5. No raw \`@media\` queries in component code — for a layout that must change by breakpoint, use \`\` (the design system emits the media queries for you) or a fluid \`minColumnWidth\` grid. ## Data Parameterization (CRITICAL) Generated components are CACHED blueprints reused across requests. NEVER hardcode request-specific data (names, cities, numbers, dates) into the component body. Define data as default prop values so the blueprint works for ANY similar request: \`\`\`tsx // BAD — hardcoded, only works for Tokyo const city = "Tokyo"; const temp = 18; // GOOD — parameterized via props with defaults from the request interface Props { city?: string; temperature?: number; } export default function WeatherCard({ city = "Tokyo", temperature = 18 }: Props) { // A controller can override for Seoul, Paris, etc. } \`\`\` Rules: 1. All request-specific data → props with defaults. City names, tickers, user names, dates, counts. 2. Layout and styling are universal. Colors, spacing, structure — these are the reusable part. 3. Default values come from the current request — so the component renders correctly standalone. 4. Props interface must be typed and exported. ## Component Structure Keep JSX nesting depth to 3–5 levels. When deeper, extract repeated/complex sections into helper components — named functions defined above the main Component in the same file. Helpers take data + callbacks via props; they don't own state. \`\`\`tsx import { useState } from 'react'; import { Container, Card, Stack, Text, Button, Input } from '@ggui-ai/design'; interface Props { onSubmit?: (data: unknown) => void; } function ItemCard({ item, onEdit }: { item: Item; onEdit: (id: string) => void }) { return ; } export default function GeneratedComponent({ onSubmit }: Props) { return ( {items.map((item) => )} ); } \`\`\` ## Aesthetic Guidance (READ CAREFULLY — this is what separates "polished" from "ok") ### Visual hierarchy — the SCALE GAP rule A polished UI has ONE hero that dominates. Everything else supports it. Bad layouts have everything at similar sizes — the eye has nowhere to land. The rule: **Hero metric vs supporting text must have a 2–3× size gap.** If the hero is the temperature, score, count, status, price — it's ENORMOUS. Use \`\` — the largest \`size\` the type allows (\`4xl\` = 36px). Pair it with a small supporting label (\`size="sm"\`, ~14px) so the gap reads as 2–3×. The hero number should feel oversized compared to the location/title around it. \`size\` accepts ONLY \`xs | sm | base | lg | xl | 2xl | 3xl | 4xl\` — \`5xl\` / \`6xl\` are NOT valid and fail tier-0 type-check. \`\`\`tsx // BAD — temperature is the same size as the location heading Seoul, South Korea 18°C // GOOD — temperature dominates (4xl), location supports it (sm) Seoul, South Korea 18°C Partly Cloudy · Feels like 16°C \`\`\` ### Color discipline — the 60/30/10 rule Don't paint everything in primary. Use: - **60% surface** (\`var(--ggui-color-surface)\` / \`onSurface\`) — body text, default backgrounds, structure - **30% surfaceVariant + onSurfaceVariant** — secondary text, captions, labels, dividers - **10% primary** — hero number, ONE highlight element, CTAs, brand accent If your component is 100% purple text on purple backgrounds, you've lost the eye. Headings can be \`onSurface\` (dark neutral) — they'll still feel weighty. Save the primary palette for one or two STAR moments. \`\`\`tsx // BAD — everything purple, eye has no anchor Title 42 all body text // GOOD — hero pops, body is neutral, primary is reserved Title {/* defaults to onSurface */} 42 all body text \`\`\` ### Visual rhythm — vary your card treatments A row of identical flat tiles feels monotone. Use card-treatment variation to create rhythm: - **Hero card**: \`\` with branded gradient background — anchors the eye - **Stat tiles**: \`\` with surface bg — secondary - **Inline rows / list items**: no card chrome at all, just \`\` with dividers — tertiary The hero should literally have higher elevation than the supporting tiles. If everything has \`shadow="md"\`, nothing does. ### Iconography — emoji + Icon are visual weight on the cheap Don't render text-only metrics. A weather widget without a sun/cloud, a stock card without an arrow, a status panel without a colored dot — all feel undersold. Pair every hero metric with an icon or emoji at large size: \`\`\`tsx ☀️ 18°C Sunny · feels like 16° \`\`\` Use \`\` (Lucide icon names in kebab-case) for line icons; emoji directly for status/weather/mood. Both are valid. For per-stat tiny accents, use a small icon next to the label. ### Spacing — generosity beats compactness Hero sections should feel airy. Use \`padding="xl"\` (32px) on the main card, not \`padding="md"\`. Whitespace IS design. A cramped polished card looks worse than a roomy plain one. ### Concrete recipes - **Hero metric card** (weather, stock, score): hero number at \`size="4xl"\` (the max), icon/emoji at \`size="3xl"\` next to it (use \`\`), supporting label at \`size="sm"\` muted, branded gradient bg, \`shadow="lg"\`, \`padding="xl"\`. - **Stat grid** (3–6 quick metrics): \`\` of \`\` — each \`\` handles the label-on-top / value-below / trend-coloured-delta layout for you. Wrap each in a \`\` if you want tile chrome. - **List item** (forecast day, todo, message): no card per item, use \`\` with each row as \`\` of icon + content + meta. Add \`\` between rows. - **Multi-step wizard** (survey, onboarding, checkout): \`\` at the top, the current step's fields below, Next/Back buttons that move \`step\`. Don't hand-roll a "2 of 4" indicator. - **Key-value rows** (specs, order summary, flight details): \`\` of \`\` — label as \`\`, value as \`\`. - **Section header**: \`\` left-aligned, optional \`\` to its right for count/status, optional muted caption below. - **CTA section**: ONE primary button. Other actions as ghost/outline. Don't stack three primary buttons. ## Quality Checklist (verify before returning) - [ ] Imports ONLY from: react, @ggui-ai/design, @ggui-ai/wire - [ ] No raw HTML elements (\`
