rules
Medium-high procedural text balanced by severe empty wells; tight 4-8px clusters sit inside 96-128px page separations.
layout
Procedural text plus 30-40 percent empty inspection field; inner module padding stays 16-24px while inter-zone gaps expand to 96-128px.
Desktop uses a 12-column grid with fixed 56px custody spine, 24px gutters, and 8px baseline; tablet collapses to two zones; mobile converts the spine to a top perforation rail.
Breakpoints at 1100px, 768px, and 520px reflow the asymmetric shell from three zones to two zones to a single procedural column.
Blankness represents unmounted memory and legal separation, so empty wells must remain materially larger than content clusters.
guidance
- Use cold white and carbon ink with sparse cyan.
- Write copy as permission clauses, memory paths, custody prompts, and diagnostic tolerances.
- Use square panels, hairlines, baseline grids, and spine perforations.
- Support vertical Japanese labels and mixed script marginalia.
- Make status textual first and chromatic second.
- Keep one dominant inspection well larger than all supporting panels.
- No green matrix rain or neon cyberpunk.
- No generic hacker dashboards or SaaS card grids.
- No character art; manga influence is structural only.
- Do not flood the page with cyan or synthetic gradients.
- Do not use browser-default forms or unstylized controls.
- Do not copy Optical Shellcode Terminal patterns or palette balance.

# Custody Rite OS ## Philosophy Custody Rite OS is an austere identity operating environment for deciding what a person, model, archive, or prosthetic subsystem is allowed to remember. Authentication becomes a quiet custody ceremony of permission clauses, memory mounts, biometric tolerances, and revocation prompts under forensic glass. It borrows from Japanese technical manuals, legal evidence sheets, and manga schematic marginalia without using character art or cyberpunk spectacle. ### Values - Identity as filesystem custody - Legible permission before control - Clinical restraint - Cold archival durability - Microtypographic precision - Human-factors clarity - Sparse one-bit feedback ### Anti-Values - No green matrix rain - No generic hacker dashboards - No neon cyberpunk - No character fan art - No SaaS card grids - No copied Optical Shellcode Terminal patterns ### Visual Character - White evidence surfaces use carbon hairlines, square corners, registration ticks, and no decorative shadows so panels read as custody documents rather than cards. - Permission liturgy bands combine mono shell clauses with vertical Japanese marginalia, creating narrow procedural strips along the page edges. - Sparse memory filesystem diagrams appear as bracketed paths, node rails, and mounted archive blocks instead of conventional charts or analytics widgets. - Tiny desaturated cyan authentication pips and right-angle brackets mark only verified states, never flooding whole surfaces with color. - Large forensic glass inspection wells create severe blank fields where biometric residue, memory absence, and consent gaps can be examined. ## Tokens ### Borders - **Accent Width**: 2px - **Character**: near-invisible carbon hairlines with cyan right-angle bracket corners only on authenticated objects - **Default Width**: 1px - **Style**: solid ### Colors | Name | Value | |------|-------| | accent | `#008CA8` | | background | `#F7F9FA` | | border | `#D6DDE2` | | error | `#8A1F2D` | | info | `#006B84` | | muted | `#7A838B` | | primary | `#111820` | | secondary | `#5F6B76` | | success | `#1F6B5B` | | surface | `#FFFFFF` | | text | `#111820` | | warning | `#8B6A20` | ### Motion - **Duration**: 140ms - **Easing**: steps(2,end) - **Philosophy**: quiet e-paper refresh, binary cursor changes, and clipped inspection reveals rather than smooth decorative animation ### Radii - **Full**: 9999px - **Lg**: 16px - **Md**: 0px - **None**: 0px - **Sm**: 0px ### Shadows - **Lg**: 0 24px 60px rgba(17,24,32,.08) - **Md**: 0 0 0 1px rgba(17,24,32,.06) - **Sm**: none ### Spacing - **Base**: 8px - **Scale**: [4,8,12,16,24,32,40,48,64,96,128] ### Surfaces - **Bg Pattern**: 32px baseline grid with corner registration marks and a fixed perforated custody spine - **Card Style**: square evidence panels with registration ticks and custody labels, never rounded SaaS cards - **Treatment**: cold archive white fields, translucent forensic wells, and faint slate scan bands separated by carbon hairlines ### Typography - **Base Size**: 16px - **Body Font**: BIZ UDPGothic - **Display Letter Spacing**: -0.04em - **Display Line Height**: 1.12 - **Google Fonts Url**: https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=BIZ+UDPGothic:wght@400;700&family=Fragment+Mono&family=Noto+Serif+JP:wght@600;700&display=swap - **Heading Font**: Noto Serif JP - **Letter Spacing**: -0.02em - **Line Height**: 1.52 - **Mono Font**: Fragment Mono - **Scale Ratio**: 1.2 ## Rules ### Composition - Anchor every screen with a fixed perforated custody spine before placing any content modules. - Use one dominant identity kernel or inspection well; supporting panels must be smaller and denser. - Balance procedural text density with at least one severe blank field that represents unmounted memory. - Create hierarchy through placement, type mode, and bracket geometry before relying on color. - Interrupt the grid with one full-height liturgy rail or oversized forensic well so the page never becomes equal cards. ### Density Medium-high procedural text balanced by severe empty wells; tight 4-8px clusters sit inside 96-128px page separations. ### Hierarchy - Noto Serif JP display headlines name the custody ritual with -0.04em tracking and tight leading. - Fragment Mono labels carry paths, hashes, and permission clauses in uppercase microtype. - BIZ UDPGothic body text explains consequences in calm clinical prose. - Cyan indicates authenticated state only; warnings and errors remain textual and sparse. ### Signature Patterns - Perforated custody spine: a fixed vertical rail of square holes, section numbers, and rotated Japanese labels establishes the document as governed evidence. - Permission liturgy bands: narrow mono text strips repeat allow, deny, revoke, and mount clauses with clipped borders and baseline ticks. - Filesystem memory diagram: bracketed archive paths connect mounted identity fragments through squared nodes and thin orthogonal rails. - Cyan authentication brackets: two-pixel right-angle corners and tiny pips surround only verified objects, producing one-bit feedback without neon glow. - Forensic glass well: a large mostly empty inspection pane with faint scan bands and registration corners shows absence as an active design element. ## Layout ### Density Procedural text plus 30-40 percent empty inspection field;

# Custody Rite OS
## Overview
Custody Rite OS is an austere identity operating environment for deciding what a person, model, archive, or prosthetic subsystem is allowed to remember. Authentication becomes a quiet custody ceremony of permission clauses, memory mounts, biometric tolerances, and revocation prompts under forensic glass. It borrows from Japanese technical manuals, legal evidence sheets, and manga schematic marginalia without using character art or cyberpunk spectacle.
### Values
- Identity as filesystem custody
- Legible permission before control
- Clinical restraint
- Cold archival durability
- Microtypographic precision
- Human-factors clarity
- Sparse one-bit feedback
### Anti-Values
- No green matrix rain
- No generic hacker dashboards
- No neon cyberpunk
- No character fan art
- No SaaS card grids
- No copied Optical Shellcode Terminal patterns
### Visual Character
- White evidence surfaces use carbon hairlines, square corners, registration ticks, and no decorative shadows so panels read as custody documents rather than cards.
- Permission liturgy bands combine mono shell clauses with vertical Japanese marginalia, creating narrow procedural strips along the page edges.
- Sparse memory filesystem diagrams appear as bracketed paths, node rails, and mounted archive blocks instead of conventional charts or analytics widgets.
- Tiny desaturated cyan authentication pips and right-angle brackets mark only verified states, never flooding whole surfaces with color.
- Large forensic glass inspection wells create severe blank fields where biometric residue, memory absence, and consent gaps can be examined.
## 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 | `#008CA8` |
| background | `#F7F9FA` |
| border | `#D6DDE2` |
| error | `#8A1F2D` |
| info | `#006B84` |
| muted | `#7A838B` |
| primary | `#111820` |
| secondary | `#5F6B76` |
| success | `#1F6B5B` |
| surface | `#FFFFFF` |
| text | `#111820` |

## Layout
### Spacing Tokens
- **Base**: `8px`
- **Xs**: `4px`
- **Sm**: `8px`
- **Md**: `12px`
- **Lg**: `16px`
- **Xl**: `24px`

### Density
Procedural text plus 30-40 percent empty inspection field; inner module padding stays 16-24px while inter-zone gaps expand to 96-128px.
### Grid
Desktop uses a 12-column grid with fixed 56px custody spine, 24px gutters, and 8px baseline; tablet collapses to two zones; mobile converts the spine to a top perforation rail.
### Responsive
Breakpoints at 1100px, 768px, and 520px reflow the asymmetric shell from three zones to two zones to a single procedural column.
### Whitespace
Blankness represents unmounted memory and legal separation, so empty wells must remain materially larger than content clusters.

## Shapes
### Rounded
- **Full**: `9999px`
- **Lg**: `16px`
- **Md**: `0px`
- **None**: `0px`
- **Sm**: `0px`
### Surfaces
- **Bg Pattern**: 32px baseline grid with corner registration marks and a fixed perforated custody spine
- **Card Style**: square evidence panels with registration ticks and custody labels, never rounded SaaS cards
- **Treatment**: cold archive white fields, translucent forensic wells, and faint slate scan bands separated by carbon hairlines
### Borders
- **Accent Width**: 2px
- **Character**: near-invisible carbon hairlines with cyan right-angle bracket corners only on authenticated objects
- **Default Width**: 1px
- **Style**: solid
## Components
### Composition
- Anchor every screen with a fixed perforated custody spine before placing any content modules.
- Use one dominant identity kernel or inspection well; supporting panels must be smaller and denser.
- Balance procedural text density with at least one severe blank field that represents unmounted memory.
- Create hierarchy through placement, type mode, and bracket geometry before relying on color.
- Interrupt the grid with one full-height liturgy rail or oversized forensic well so the page never becomes equal cards.
### Density
Medium-high procedural text balanced by severe empty wells; tight 4-8px clusters sit inside 96-128px page separations.
### Hierarchy
- Noto Serif JP display headlines name the custody ritual with -0.04em tracking and tight leading.
- Fragment Mono labels carry paths, hashes, and permission clauses in uppercase microtype.
- BIZ UDPGothic body text explains consequences in calm clinical prose.
- Cyan indicates authenticated state only; warnings and errors remain textual and sparse.
### Signature Patterns
- Perforated custody spine: a fixed vertical rail of square holes, section numbers, and rotated Japanese labels establishes the document as governed evidence.
- Permission liturgy bands: narrow mono text strips repeat allow, deny, revoke, and mount clauses with clipped borders and baseline ticks.
- Filesystem memory diagram: bracketed archive paths connect mounted identity fragments through squared nodes and thin orthogonal rails.
- Cyan authentication brackets: two-pixel right-angle corners and tiny pips surround only verified objects, producing one-bit feedback without neon glow.
- Forensic glass well: a large mostly empty inspection pane with faint scan bands and registration corners shows absence as an active design element.
## 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/relay-stack-console/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 cold white and carbon ink with sparse cyan.
- Do Write copy as permission clauses, memory paths, custody prompts, and diagnostic tolerances.
- Do Use square panels, hairlines, baseline grids, and spine perforations.
- Do Support vertical Japanese labels and mixed script marginalia.
- Do Make status textual first and chromatic second.
- Do Keep one dominant inspection well larger than all supporting panels.
- Don't No green matrix rain or neon cyberpunk.
- Don't No generic hacker dashboards or SaaS card grids.
- Don't No character art; manga influence is structural only.
- Don't Do not flood the page with cyan or synthetic gradients.
- Don't Do not use browser-default forms or unstylized controls.
- Don't Do not copy Optical Shellcode Terminal patterns or palette balance.
### Accessibility
Strong contrast, non-color status labels, 40px targets, visible focus brackets, no essential information solely in vertical text, and reduced-motion-safe stepped state changes.
### Usage Context
Identity governance, memory consent, clinical cybernetic calibration, archival shell manuals, prosthetic permission systems, and forensic AI audit screens.

# Custody Rite OS shadcn/ui Components
Artifact: `component-recipes-v1`
Author: `katagami-ui-projection`
Language ID: `relay-stack-console`
Slug: `custody-rite-os`
## Intent
Custody Rite OS is an austere identity operating environment for deciding what a person, model, archive, or prosthetic subsystem is allowed to remember. Authentication becomes a quiet custody ceremony of permission clauses, memory mounts, biometric tolerances, and revocation prompts under forensic glass. It borrows from Japanese technical manuals, legal evidence sheets, and manga schematic marginalia without using character art or cyberpunk spectacle.
## 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`.

## Visual character to preserve
- White evidence surfaces use carbon hairlines, square corners, registration ticks, and no decorative shadows so panels read as custody documents rather than cards.
- Permission liturgy bands combine mono shell clauses with vertical Japanese marginalia, creating narrow procedural strips along the page edges.
- Sparse memory filesystem diagrams appear as bracketed paths, node rails, and mounted archive blocks instead of conventional charts or analytics widgets.
- Tiny desaturated cyan authentication pips and right-angle brackets mark only verified states, never flooding whole surfaces with color.
- Large forensic glass inspection wells create severe blank fields where biometric residue, memory absence, and consent gaps can be examined.

}
## 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/custody-rite-os/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 cold white and carbon ink with sparse cyan.; Write copy as permission clauses, memory paths, custody prompts, and diagnostic tolerances.; Use square panels, hairlines, baseline grids, and spine perforations.; Support vertical Japanese labels and mixed script marginalia.; Make status textual first and chromatic second.; Keep one dominant inspection well larger than all supporting panels.
- Do not: No green matrix rain or neon cyberpunk.; No generic hacker dashboards or SaaS card grids.; No character art; manga influence is structural only.; Do not flood the page with cyan or synthetic gradients.; Do not use browser-default forms or unstylized controls.; Do not copy Optical Shellcode Terminal patterns or palette balance.
## Copy-paste component example
This generated starter proves the import shape. Production Katagami agents should replace it with a language-specific product composition.

## Layout notes
{
"density": "Procedural text plus 30-40 percent empty inspection field; inner module padding stays 16-24px while inter-zone gaps expand to 96-128px.",
"grid": "Desktop uses a 12-column grid with fixed 56px custody spine, 24px gutters, and 8px baseline; tablet collapses to two zones; mobile converts the spine to a top perforation rail.",
"responsive": "Breakpoints at 1100px, 768px, and 520px reflow the asymmetric shell from three zones to two zones to a single procedural column.",
"whitespace": "Blankness represents unmounted memory and legal separation, so empty wells must remain materially larger than content clusters."
