 # CheckboxListItem component contract
@@ -44,12 +55,12 @@ system_specs: [spec:AST-011, spec:AST-021, spec:AST-038]
 | Public contract         | One option row: a native checkbox named by `label` or `aria-label`, described by `description`, with optional `endContent`, rendered through ListItem. Inside a CheckboxList with a `value` array (collection mode), checked state comes from membership and `value` is required. Inside List, or inside a CheckboxList without `value` (standalone mode), the item reads `isChecked` and calls `onCheck`. |
 | Behavior                | The checkbox is the option's only tab stop. Row-surface clicks delegate to it when the item is editable and sits in a CheckboxList or has `onCheck`, or when it has `onClick`; an item `onClick` fires once per direct, keyboard, or row-surface click. Disabled, read-only, and busy states refuse toggling.                                                                                              |
 | End-user impact         | People can operate each option by pointer, touch, and keyboard, hear its name, description, and checked, mixed, disabled, read-only, or busy state, and see a spinner while it saves.                                                                                                                                                                                                                      |
-| Builder impact          | Where the item sits, and whether its parent list has `value`, selects the mode; `value` is required only in collection mode. Handlerless meaning, checked-row theming and pointer feedback, consumer DOM-prop targets, and focus-ring ownership remain owner decisions. Read-only click propagation to ancestors is an unscored authority gap routed to the shared clickable-container hook.               |
-| Compatibility/readiness | Released API, defaults, DOM ownership, and targets are unchanged. This draft records shipped behavior only.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                |

-| GAP4 | On a read-only item with `onClick`, the item stops the click's propagation, so React ancestors never receive those clicks, while they do for enabled items. The stop exists because the shared clickable-container hook would re-delegate a click that came from an `aria-readonly` delegate target back to it.

+## Current-state impact
+
+- **Handlerless item (FR14).** A standalone item with `isChecked` and no
+  `onCheck` is exposed as an editable checkbox though activation changes
+  nothing (WCAG 2.2 4.1.2). The shared checkbox suite records this as a known
+  failure; the meaning is OQ1.
+- **Mixed state after activation (FR5).** A standalone mixed item whose value
+  stays mixed loses its native mixed state on activation, as
+  `component:CheckboxInput` records.
+- **Checked-row state (FR15).** No selection state is reflected on the row
+  targets, against `architecture:component-theming-surface` INV6.
+- **Two focus indicators (FR19).** Keyboard focus paints both the row outline
+  and the checkbox ring, against `architecture:interaction-modality` INV3.
 
 ## Decision log
 
-None. This draft records shipped behavior; it introduces no new API, default,
-target, or subjective visual decision.
+No component-local decision. CheckboxListItem applies `spec:AST-021` and
+`spec:AST-085`.
