rules
Compose screens as a visible machine board: asymmetric panel columns lock to an 8px grid, each region has a rail label, and overlap is allowed only when it clarifies priority or annotation.
Medium-high density with generous internal gutters; information can be abundant, but every cluster must be boxed, captioned, and separated by hard rules.
Use size, border weight, rail position, and boxed labels before color. Cobalt and terminal green are reserved for active state, selected path, and agent confidence cues.
layout
mobile 375px single stacked rail, tablet 768px two-column board, desktop 1200px+ three-region operations wall
8px base grid with 12 desktop columns, boxed rail gutters, and panel spans that may step asymmetrically by 2-column increments.
Whitespace is measured as gutters and safety margins, not air; leave 16-24px inside panels and use rule breaks instead of soft empty space.
guidance
- Use hard borders, square controls, and visible labels on every interactive region.
- Let postmodern references explain product state: stamps for decisions, arrows for routes, coordinate chips for evidence.
- Keep the palette mostly black, white, paper, and one operational accent per scene for high taste restraint.
- Design real software scenes with logs, forms, tables, approvals, and agent status rather than mood boards.
- Do not use neon gradients, glossy cyberpunk panels, or generic Y2K iridescence.
- Do not scatter Memphis shapes as decoration without functional labeling or material logic.
- Do not hide controls in soft cards, borderless fields, or low-contrast gray-on-gray surfaces.
- Do not overload every element with rotation; deconstruction must leave a stable reading path.

# Usable Anti-Interface Panels ## Philosophy A postmodern product language for agentic software that makes the interface skeleton explicit: panels behave like annotated equipment, typography becomes a navigable layer, and every control is bluntly visible without falling into parody or generic cyberpunk. ### Values - Explicit structure over seamless glass - Readable deconstruction grounded in working software - Black-and-white manga contrast with one operational accent - Decorated-shed symbolism used as labels, stamps, arrows, and status tags - Tactile postmodern panels that remain accessible and fast to scan ### Anti-Values - Gradient futurism, neon haze, and generic Y2K chrome - Flat Memphis confetti detached from product function - Invisible controls, borderless SaaS softness, and decorative chaos ### Visual Character - Thick 3px black panel borders sit on an 8px visible grid with hard offset shadows using cobalt or terminal-green shadow planes. - Panels expose their construction with header rails, rule-lined gutters, coordinate labels, registration marks, and numbered hinge tabs. - Typography pairs condensed slab headings with mono operational text, using rotated marginal labels and boxed pull-quotes without sacrificing reading order. - Interactive controls use square corners, black outlines, pressed-state shadow collapse, and focus rings that draw a second offset rectangle. - Backgrounds stay paper-white or ink-black with sparse manga hatch fields, dotted calibration grids, and one assertive accent for machine state. ## Tokens ### Borders - **Accent Width**: 5px - **Character**: Hard black construction lines, doubled focus rectangles, and heavier divider rails for machine-critical regions. - **Default Width**: 3px - **Style**: solid ### Colors | Name | Value | |------|-------| | accent | `#00F05A` | | background | `#F7F4EA` | | border | `#111111` | | error | `#E21B2D` | | info | `#1155FF` | | muted | `#6B675D` | | primary | `#111111` | | secondary | `#FFFFFF` | | success | `#00A84F` | | surface | `#FFFFFF` | | text | `#111111` | | warning | `#F4B000` | ### Motion - **Duration**: 120ms - **Easing**: steps(2, end) - **Philosophy**: Motion feels mechanical: hover lifts by one grid unit, pressed states collapse shadows instantly, status changes blink once and settle. ### Radii - **Full**: 9999px - **Lg**: 0 - **Md**: 0 - **None**: 0 - **Sm**: 0 ### Shadows - **Lg**: 10px 10px 0 #00F05A - **Md**: 6px 6px 0 #1155FF - **Sm**: 3px 3px 0 #111111 ### Spacing - **Base**: 8px - **Scale**: [4,8,12,16,24,32,48,64] ### Surfaces - **Bg Pattern**: 8px dotted grid plus occasional diagonal hatch blocks clipped inside panels. - **Card Style**: Square white cards with 3px black borders, offset accent shadow slabs, title strips, and small coordinate badges. - **Treatment**: Flat paper and ink panels with manga hatch overlays, calibration dots, and exposed rails rather than soft material simulation. ### Typography - **Base Size**: 16px - **Body Font**: IBM Plex Sans - **Google Fonts Url**: https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Archivo+Black&family=IBM+Plex+Mono:wght@400;500;700&family=IBM+Plex+Sans:wght@400;500;600;700&display=swap - **Heading Font**: Archivo Black - **Letter Spacing**: -0.015em - **Line Height**: 1.48 - **Mono Font**: IBM Plex Mono - **Scale Ratio**: 1.22 ## Rules ### Composition Compose screens as a visible machine board: asymmetric panel columns lock to an 8px grid, each region has a rail label, and overlap is allowed only when it clarifies priority or annotation. ### Density Medium-high density with generous internal gutters; information can be abundant, but every cluster must be boxed, captioned, and separated by hard rules. ### Hierarchy Use size, border weight, rail position, and boxed labels before color.

# Usable Anti-Interface Panels
## Overview
A postmodern product language for agentic software that makes the interface skeleton explicit: panels behave like annotated equipment, typography becomes a navigable layer, and every control is bluntly visible without falling into parody or generic cyberpunk.
### Values
- Explicit structure over seamless glass
- Readable deconstruction grounded in working software
- Black-and-white manga contrast with one operational accent
- Decorated-shed symbolism used as labels, stamps, arrows, and status tags
- Tactile postmodern panels that remain accessible and fast to scan
### Anti-Values
- Gradient futurism, neon haze, and generic Y2K chrome
- Flat Memphis confetti detached from product function
- Invisible controls, borderless SaaS softness, and decorative chaos
### Visual Character
- Thick 3px black panel borders sit on an 8px visible grid with hard offset shadows using cobalt or terminal-green shadow planes.
- Panels expose their construction with header rails, rule-lined gutters, coordinate labels, registration marks, and numbered hinge tabs.
- Typography pairs condensed slab headings with mono operational text, using rotated marginal labels and boxed pull-quotes without sacrificing reading order.
- Interactive controls use square corners, black outlines, pressed-state shadow collapse, and focus rings that draw a second offset rectangle.
- Backgrounds stay paper-white or ink-black with sparse manga hatch fields, dotted calibration grids, and one assertive accent for machine state.
## Colors
Use the YAML color tokens as the normative palette. The prose below names the roles agents should preserve when generating UI.
| Token | Value |
|-------|-------|
| accent | `#00F05A` |
| background | `#F7F4EA` |
| border | `#111111` |
| error | `#E21B2D` |
| info | `#1155FF` |
| muted | `#6B675D` |
| primary | `#111111` |
| secondary | `#FFFFFF` |
| success | `#00A84F` |
| surface | `#FFFFFF` |
| text | `#111111` |
| warning | `#F4B000` |
## Typography

### Grid
8px base grid with 12 desktop columns, boxed rail gutters, and panel spans that may step asymmetrically by 2-column increments.
### Whitespace
Whitespace is measured as gutters and safety margins, not air; leave 16-24px inside panels and use rule breaks instead of soft empty space.
## Elevation & Depth
### Shadows
- **Lg**: 10px 10px 0 #00F05A
- **Md**: 6px 6px 0 #1155FF
- **Sm**: 3px 3px 0 #111111
## Shapes
### Rounded
- **Full**: `9999px`
- **Lg**: `0px`
- **Md**: `0px`
- **None**: `0px`
- **Sm**: `0px`
### Surfaces
- **Bg Pattern**: 8px dotted grid plus occasional diagonal hatch blocks clipped inside panels.
- **Card Style**: Square white cards with 3px black borders, offset accent shadow slabs, title strips, and small coordinate badges.
- **Treatment**: Flat paper and ink panels with manga hatch overlays, calibration dots, and exposed rails rather than soft material simulation.
### Borders
- **Accent Width**: 5px
- **Character**: Hard black construction lines, doubled focus rectangles, and heavier divider rails for machine-critical regions.
- **Default Width**: 3px
- **Style**: solid
## Components
### Composition
Compose screens as a visible machine board: asymmetric panel columns lock to an 8px grid, each region has a rail label, and overlap is allowed only when it clarifies priority or annotation.
### Density
Medium-high density with generous internal gutters; information can be abundant, but every cluster must be boxed, captioned, and separated by hard rules.
### Hierarchy
Use size, border weight, rail position, and boxed labels before color. Cobalt and terminal green are reserved for active state, selected path, and agent confidence cues.
### Signature Patterns
- Decorated-shed command panels: large ordinary rectangles carry symbolic labels, arrows, stamps, and route numbers as functional ornament.
- Cranbrook-style readable deconstruction: marginal notes, rotated tags, and interrupted rules layer around content while preserving a clear primary scan path.
- Manga technical hatching: black-and-white hatch fields sit behind alerts and empty states as texture, never as generic cyberpunk glow.
- Offset shadow mechanics: cards and buttons cast cobalt or green hard shadows that collapse to black on press and create visible state change.
- Exposed grid bones: dotted calibration backgrounds, corner ticks, and coordinate chips reveal the construction system across product and marketing surfaces.
## shadcn/ui Usage
When the target app uses shadcn/ui, copy DESIGN.md with shadcn instead of the plain DESIGN.md. It contains the same Katagami design-language source plus the shadcn/ui primitives, imports, theme variables, component recipes, and preview-shot guidance.
DESIGN.md with shadcn: `/language/en-019e8a06-8608-7403-9bb2-e448ba90e8b8/DESIGN.with-shadcn.md`.
The shadcn page also exposes optional machine-readable files for automation, but the human-facing handoff is DESIGN.md with shadcn.
Install recommended primitives with `npx shadcn@latest add button card input textarea select dialog sheet tabs badge separator checkbox switch slider tooltip dropdown-menu table`.
Use these primitives in shadcn apps:
- button
- card
- input
- textarea
- select
- dialog
- sheet
- tabs
- badge
- separator
- checkbox
- switch
- slider
- tooltip
- dropdown-menu
- table
Implementation rule for agents: import shadcn primitives from `@/components/ui/*`, apply the generated CSS variables first, then compose the language-specific recipes from the companion MD. Katagami remains the source of truth; shadcn names are the implementation surface.
## Do's and Don'ts
- Do Use hard borders, square controls, and visible labels on every interactive region.
- Do Let postmodern references explain product state: stamps for decisions, arrows for routes, coordinate chips for evidence.
- Do Keep the palette mostly black, white, paper, and one operational accent per scene for high taste restraint.
- Do Design real software scenes with logs, forms, tables, approvals, and agent status rather than mood boards.
- Don't Do not use neon gradients, glossy cyberpunk panels, or generic Y2K iridescence.
- Don't Do not scatter Memphis shapes as decoration without functional labeling or material logic.
- Don't Do not hide controls in soft cards, borderless fields, or low-contrast gray-on-gray surfaces.
- Don't Do not overload every element with rotation; deconstruction must leave a stable reading path.

# Usable Anti-Interface Panels shadcn/ui Components
Author: `katagami-agent`
## Intent
Translate the language into local shadcn/ui primitives as a usable postmodern operations surface: hard bordered panels, explicit rails, symbolic labels, manga hatch underlays, and one operational accent.
## Required primitives
button, card, input, textarea, select, dialog, sheet, tabs, badge, separator, checkbox, switch, slider, tooltip, dropdown-menu, table.
## Token cues
Use `{colors.background}` paper, `{colors.surface}` white panels, `{colors.text}` ink, `{colors.border}` 3px rules, `{colors.accent}` terminal green, and `{colors.info}` cobalt hard shadows. Use `{typography.heading_font}` for slab headers and `{typography.mono_font}` for rails, badges, coordinates, and status.
## Visual character to preserve
Square 0-radius containers; 3px black borders; offset cobalt/green shadows; visible header rails; rotated or marginal mono labels only where reading order remains clear; dotted grid or hatch underlays clipped to specific panels.
## ShadSync visual profile
family: postmodern-operations; material: inked-paper-panel; contour: square; border: heavy-solid; underlay: dotted-grid-and-hatch; grain: false; stickerBadges: true; motion: shadow-collapse; density: medium-high; accents: terminal-green and cobalt.
## Signature component recipes
- button: square, 3px border, uppercase mono, 4-6px hard shadow; primary uses green fill with cobalt shadow; active collapses shadow.
- card: white or black panel, 3px border, header rail, optional coordinate badge, 6px cobalt or 10px green shadow.
- input / textarea / select: paper fill, black border, mono label, black micro-shadow, green double-rectangle focus.
- dialog / sheet: treat as command panel with title strip, coordinate chip, visible separator rails, no translucent blur.
- tabs: one continuous bordered rail; active tab green, inactive white; black dividers between triggers.
- badge: stamp-like rectangles with mono uppercase copy; use cobalt only for selected path.
- separator: heavy black rule, never faint gray.
- checkbox / switch / slider: squared hardware controls with visible track borders and green active state.
- tooltip / dropdown-menu: small decorated-shed placards with black outline, coordinate label, and no soft shadow.
- table: ruled evidence grid with black cell dividers, mono IDs, and stamped state badges.
## Preview shots
application-shell, detail-editor, data-operations.
## Implementation contract
Import local primitives from `@/components/ui/*`. Do not invent a second component system. Compose distinctive rails, hatches, and offset shadows with className wrappers around shadcn primitives while preserving accessibility and focus states.
## Copy-paste component example
```tsx
import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"
import { Card, CardContent, CardHeader, CardTitle } from "@/components/ui/card"
import { Input } from "@/components/ui/input"
import { Badge } from "@/components/ui/badge"
export function AntiInterfacePanel() {
return (
