# Pixel Aperture Product System shadcn/ui Components

Artifact: `component-recipes-v1`
Author: `katagami-ui-projection`
Language ID: `en-019e4685-7cd5-70d2-b718-7bd8bf6e313a`
Slug: `pixel-aperture-product-system`

## Intent

A white product interface language where bright accents behave like tiny calibrated apertures: restrained pixel-cut highlights reveal priority, state, and delight without becoming a retro game skin. Candidate directions compared internally were citrus-cobalt utility, violet-lime laboratory, and this cobalt/coral/saffron aperture system; the chosen direction wins because its split-warm accents create memorable product moments while cobalt maintains functional trust and accessibility.

## Required primitives

- button
- card
- input
- textarea
- select
- dialog
- sheet
- tabs
- badge
- separator
- checkbox
- switch
- slider
- tooltip
- dropdown-menu
- table

Install with `npx shadcn@latest add button card input textarea select dialog sheet tabs badge separator checkbox switch slider tooltip dropdown-menu table`.

## Token cues

Colors:

{
  "accent": "#FF3D7F",
  "background": "#FBFAF7",
  "border": "#DDE3EC",
  "error": "#E02424",
  "info": "#2F6BFF",
  "muted": "#6B7280",
  "primary": "#2557FF",
  "secondary": "#FFB000",
  "success": "#11A36A",
  "surface": "#FFFFFF",
  "text": "#111827",
  "warning": "#C87900"
}

Typography:

{
  "base_size": "16px",
  "body_font": "Inter",
  "google_fonts_url": "https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Instrument+Sans:wght@500;600;700;800&family=Inter:wght@400;500;600;700&family=IBM+Plex+Mono:wght@500;600&display=swap",
  "heading_font": "Instrument Sans",
  "letter_spacing": "-0.018em",
  "line_height": 1.5,
  "mono_font": "IBM Plex Mono",
  "scale_ratio": 1.22
}

## Visual character to preserve

- White and warm-neutral surfaces use 1px cool-gray borders, soft ambient shadows, and no repeated background texture or square grid.
- Key actions and data states receive small 6px to 14px pixel-aperture corner blocks clipped from cobalt, coral, and saffron accents.
- Cards use asymmetric header compositions with one large content region and two smaller utility modules instead of equal dashboard tiles.
- Icons are line icons with one or two square-pixel terminals, keeping the UI professional while giving edges a quantized rhythm.
- Focus and hover states shift via crisp inset outlines and short translate motion rather than glow, neon, or decorative stripes.

## ShadSync visual profile

{
  "family": "brutalist",
  "material": "ink",
  "contour": "default",
  "border": "solid",
  "underlay": true,
  "grain": true,
  "stickerBadges": false,
  "motion": "lift",
  "density": "balanced",
  "accents": [
    "primary",
    "accent",
    "secondary",
    "muted"
  ]
}

## Signature component recipes

### Button
Use `Button` for primary, secondary, outline, and ghost actions. Primary actions must expose the language's strongest contrast pair, while secondary and ghost actions should preserve the surface treatment instead of falling back to default neutral SaaS styling.

### Card
Use `Card`, `CardHeader`, `CardContent`, `CardFooter`, and `CardAction` as the main composition frame. Cards should demonstrate the language's surface, border, hierarchy, and density rules rather than appearing as generic rounded rectangles.

### Input and Textarea
Use `Input` and `Textarea` with visible focus rings, field labels, validation states, and the language's rhythm. Forms should show real product content, not placeholder-only controls.

### Select, Tabs, and Table
Use `Select`, `Tabs`, and `Table` to prove navigation, filtering, and dense data states. The table should show row rhythm, separators, hover/focus states, and an empty or status state when the language calls for it.

### Dialog and Sheet
Use `Dialog` for centered decisions and `Sheet` for contextual editing. Both should inherit the language's spacing, border, overlay, and motion rules.

## Preview shots

- `application-shell`: dashboard or workspace shell with navigation, cards, forms, and state badges.
- `detail-editor`: focused editing flow using input, textarea, select, switch/checkbox, dialog or sheet, and action buttons.
- `data-operations`: table-heavy operational view with tabs, dropdown menu affordances, badges, and destructive/empty states.
- Each preview shot must include a renderable `scene` payload with concrete headline, description, actions, and rows/fields/stats for the UI preview.

## Implementation contract

- Start from local `ui/src/components/ui` shadcn-style primitives; do not create a second component system.
- Apply `/katagami/shadcn/pixel-aperture-product-system/registry-theme.json` variables, then use these recipes for composition and state design.
- Preserve Katagami token names as source metadata; shadcn semantic names are only the export surface.
- Do: Use one dominant bright accent per interaction and keep the other hues as small state notes.; Make pixel influence visible in corners, terminals, icons, and small diagrams rather than full component geometry.; Keep backgrounds white or warm neutral with no square grids and no default dotted texture.; Choose real product scenes such as palette governance, release checks, or asset review where color carries meaning.
- Do not: Do not use rainbow sprawl, neon cyberpunk gradients, confetti, or arcade styling.; Do not attach decorative colored side rails or left stripes to cards, rows, buttons, or panels.; Do not turn every element blocky; preserve smooth radii and professional product typography.; Do not use generic SaaS dashboard panels with three equal cards as the main composition.

## Copy-paste component example

This generated starter proves the import shape. Production Katagami agents should replace it with a language-specific product composition.
