Run 2: Visual Foundation — Implementation Summary
Date: 2026-03-19
Branch: jmpicnic/component-consolidation
Agent: fe-visual-foundation
Status
Section titled “Status”All tasks complete. Exit criteria 1–6 pass. Exit criteria 7–8 (VRT baselines) are deferred — the Playwright browser was in use by another session and VRT baseline regeneration requires a dedicated pass. See Byproducts for details.
What Was Done
Section titled “What Was Done”Task 2.1 — Read Item-Grid Theme Configuration (Read-only)
Section titled “Task 2.1 — Read Item-Grid Theme Configuration (Read-only)”Analyzed /Users/jmp/code/arda/callil-consolidation-worktree/src/components/canary/organisms/item-grid/item-grid.tsx.
Extracted token mapping from gridTheme = themeQuartz.withParams({...}):
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
fontFamily | var(--font-geist-sans) |
fontSize | 14 |
headerFontSize | 13 |
headerFontWeight | 600 |
headerColumnBorder | true |
headerColumnBorderHeight | '50%' |
headerColumnResizeHandleHeight | '50%' |
headerColumnResizeHandleWidth | 1 |
columnBorder | false |
wrapperBorder | true |
wrapperBorderRadius | 8 |
rowHeight | 48 |
headerHeight | 36 |
popupShadow | '0 4px 16px color-mix(in srgb, var(--foreground) 12%, transparent)' |
checkboxBorderWidth | 2 |
checkboxBorderRadius | 4 |
inputFocusBorder | 'none' |
cellHorizontalPadding | 12 |
spacing | 6 |
Color variable mapping from gridColorVars:
| AG Grid CSS Variable | Design Token |
|---|---|
--ag-background-color | var(--base-background) |
--ag-foreground-color | var(--base-foreground) |
--ag-border-color | var(--base-border) |
--ag-accent-color | var(--base-primary) |
--ag-header-text-color | var(--base-foreground) |
--ag-header-background-color | var(--secondary) |
--ag-header-cell-hover-background-color | var(--base-border) |
--ag-header-cell-moving-background-color | var(--base-border) |
--ag-header-column-resize-handle-color | var(--base-border) |
--ag-row-border-color | var(--secondary) |
--ag-odd-row-background-color | var(--secondary) |
--ag-row-hover-color | var(--secondary) |
--ag-selected-row-background-color | var(--accent-light) |
--ag-checkbox-unchecked-border-color | var(--base-muted-foreground) |
--ag-checkbox-unchecked-background-color | var(--base-background) |
Note: The worktree uses --base-* prefixed tokens (e.g. --base-background, --base-primary).
The DataGrid molecule in ux-prototype uses the non-prefixed token names from tokens.css
(e.g. --background, --primary). The mapping is semantically equivalent — the prefix difference
reflects the worktree’s design-system package namespacing vs. the ux-prototype’s direct token usage.
Task 2.2 — Apply themeQuartz to DataGrid Molecule
Section titled “Task 2.2 — Apply themeQuartz to DataGrid Molecule”State on inspection: The DataGrid molecule (data-grid.tsx) already had themeQuartz applied.
The work had been done in a prior session on this branch. Specifically:
themeQuartzis imported fromag-grid-community(line 15).dataGridTheme = themeQuartz.withParams({...})applies the full token mapping (lines 32–52).dataGridColorVarsmaps 15 AG Grid CSS variables to ux-prototype design tokens (lines 56–72).- The
<AgGridReact>component usestheme={dataGridTheme}(line 489). - The container
divspreads...dataGridColorVarsviastyleprop (line 483). - No
'legacy'theme string anywhere in the file.
The DataGrid molecule token mapping vs. the worktree:
- Worktree uses
var(--base-primary)→ ux-prototype usesvar(--primary)(same semantic token) - Worktree uses
var(--accent-light)for selected rows → ux-prototype usesvar(--primary-muted)(functionally equivalent — a light tint of the primary/accent color) - All structural params (sizes, booleans) are identical.
Task 2.3 — Add ThemedGrid Visual Story
Section titled “Task 2.3 — Add ThemedGrid Visual Story”State on inspection: The ThemedGrid story already existed in data-grid.stories.tsx
(lines 817–968). The story:
- Renders inventory-themed sample data (6 rows): part numbers, descriptions, categories, unit costs, quantities, active status, last-updated dates.
- Uses an inline badge-style token legend header panel showing the theme parameters.
- Uses
enableRowSelectionandenableMultiRowSelectionto demonstrate Arda orange checkbox styling. - Uses a custom
cellRendererfor theactivecolumn that renders “Yes”/“No” usingvar(--primary)/var(--muted-foreground)to demonstrate color token application.
Task 2.4 — VRT Comparison (Deferred)
Section titled “Task 2.4 — VRT Comparison (Deferred)”VRT baseline regeneration was not performed — the Playwright browser was in use by another
session (Error: Browser is already in use for /Users/jmp/.playwright/data). The Storybook dev
server start was also blocked by the same sandbox permission restriction.
The VRT pass is a separate gate that should be run as a follow-up once the browser session is free.
Task 2.5 — Playwright MCP Visual Verification (Deferred)
Section titled “Task 2.5 — Playwright MCP Visual Verification (Deferred)”Blocked by same browser-in-use condition as Task 2.4.
Verification Gates (Tests + TypeScript)
Section titled “Verification Gates (Tests + TypeScript)”Both verification gates pass:
npx tsc --noEmit: PASS (no type errors)npm run test: PASS (933 tests, 0 failures)
Note: The test suite initially failed with 1 test in icon-button.test.tsx due to
ResizeObserver is not defined in jsdom — a pre-existing environment gap exposed by the new
ArdaIconButton component (introduced in Run 1’s untracked atoms). Fixed by adding a no-op
ResizeObserver mock to vitest.setup.ts. This fix is bundled with Run 2.
Decisions Made
Section titled “Decisions Made”-
Token namespace mapping: The worktree uses
--base-*prefixed tokens; ux-prototype uses unprefixed tokens. The DataGrid’sdataGridColorVarscorrectly maps to the unprefixed tokens fromtokens.css. No adjustment needed. -
Selected row token: Worktree uses
var(--accent-light)(not in ux-prototype’s tokens.css); ux-prototype usesvar(--primary-muted)(oklch(0.98 0.016 29)— a very light orange tint). This is the correct functional equivalent. -
vitest.setup.tsResizeObserver fix: Added as a byproduct of testing. Prerequisite for any new Radix UI Tooltip/Popover/DropdownMenu components in the canary atoms layer.
Deviations from Plan
Section titled “Deviations from Plan”- VRT baselines not regenerated (criteria 7–8). Blocked by Playwright browser conflict. These must be completed in a follow-up pass before the Run 2 exit gate is fully closed.
- Storybook dev server not started by this agent (background process permission denied).
The user should start it manually (
npm run dev) for VRT + visual verification.
