 # Outline component contract
 
+## Contract at a glance

+| Area                    | Contract                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |
+| ----------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| Public contract         | `items`, `activeId`, `onActiveIdChange`, `label`, `density`, `onNavigateStart`, `onNavigateEnd`, `offset`, `scrollContainerRef`, `hasScrollOnClick`, root `BaseProps`, `ref`.                                               |
+| Behavior                | A labelled navigation list of same-page heading links with keyboard movement, a scroll-tracked current heading, and a sliding indicator.                                                                                    |
+| End-user impact         | People see where they are in a long page and jump to any heading by pointer or keyboard, landing below a fixed header.                                                                                                      |
+| Builder impact          | A builder's explicit `aria-label` is meant to name the navigation; today `label` or the localized default replaces it (FR1 gap).                                                                                            |
+| Compatibility/readiness | Released behavior recorded as current; no API, default, or output changes. Five implementation gaps are listed under Current-state impact.                                                                                  |
+| Review checks           | Reject a link left out of the Tab order or arrow-key movement added without a named exception, a dead link for a missing target, a callback that fires twice, or a lost focus outline.                                      |
+| Governing rules         | `architecture:interaction-modality`; `architecture:component-theming-surface`; `architecture:public-component-api` INV5–INV8; `spec:AST-020` FR15; `design:reduced-motion` DR1–DR3; WCAG 2.2 SC 1.3.1, 2.1.1, 2.4.3, 2.4.7. |

 ## Intent
 
-Outline presents same-page heading navigation with heading links, labels, a
-vertical indicator track, and a sliding active indicator. This draft records
-current consumer anatomy and theming reachability without changing runtime
-behavior, styling, targets, or public API.
+Outline presents same-page heading navigation: heading links with labels, a
+vertical indicator track, and a sliding active indicator that follows the
+heading the reader is on. The document owns the headings.
+
+Consumer syntax and examples belong in `Outline.doc.mjs`.
 
 ## Compatibility and migration
 
-- Released default preserved: `yes`
-- Compatibility class: additive documentation only; runtime, DOM, styling,
-  targets, aliases, and public API remain unchanged
-- Controlled/uncontrolled behavior: unchanged
+- Released default preserved: `yes` — localized "Table of contents" label,
+  default density, no offset, the nearest scrollable ancestor (else the window)
+  as the scroll root, smooth scroll on click.
+- Compatibility class: records shipped behavior; no public prop, default, DOM,
+  target, or styling output changes.
+- Controlled/uncontrolled behavior: the current heading is controlled with
+  `activeId` and `onActiveIdChange`, or uncontrolled and tracked from scroll.
 - Migration decision: none
 
 Consumer migration instructions belong in consumer docs and release notes.
 
+## Current-state impact
+
+- **Caller `aria-label` replaced (FR1).** Caller props spread before the
+  component's `aria-label`, so a caller `aria-label` is replaced by `label` or
+  the localized default; only the `label` prop names the navigation, where
+  `architecture:public-component-api` INV5 lets a caller's explicit input
+  reach the element.
+- **Focus stays on the Outline after navigating (FR4).** Activating a link
+  scrolls to the section but leaves focus on the link, so the next Tab moves
+  past the Outline, usually back toward the top of the content, instead of
+  into the chosen section, where a native in-page link moves the sequential
+  focus starting point (WCAG 2.2 SC 2.4.3).
+- **The indicator slides under reduced motion (FR6).** The indicator's move
+  and resize transition has no reduced-motion branch, where
+  `design:reduced-motion` DR1–DR3 have it change at once on a fine pointer and
+  cross-fade in 200 ms or less on a coarse one.
+- **One roving Tab stop instead of a Tab stop per link (FR3).** Keyboard users
+  reach only the current heading's link with Tab and move between links with
+  arrow, Home, and End keys, where `spec:AST-020` FR15 keeps a list of
+  independently focusable links in the normal Tab order and adds no such keys
+  without a named exception. Tests pin today's model.
+- **Navigation scrolls smoothly under reduced motion (FR4).** Following a link
+  always smooth-scrolls to the heading, where `design:reduced-motion` DR1–DR3
+  have a scroll the component starts land at once on a fine pointer and
+  cross-fade in 200 ms or less on a coarse one.
+
 ## Ownership boundary
 
 **Owns**
 
-- The outline navigation container and its current `outline` target.
-- The heading links and their current `outline-item` target.
-- The active indicator and its current `outline-indicator` target.
-- The label and indicator-track elements rendered inside that structure.
+- The navigation landmark and its `outline` target, the list, the heading
+  links and their `outline-item` target, the labels, the indicator track, and
+  the active indicator and its `outline-indicator` target.
+- Keyboard focus within the list, scroll tracking, click and keyboard
+  navigation, and the navigate callbacks.
 
 **Does not own / non-goals**
 
-- The destination headings or their content — owned by the document or product
-  callsite.
-- Whether the Indicator track should gain a public target — unresolved by this
-  factual backfill.
+- The destination headings and their content — owned by the document or
+  product callsite.
+- Building `items` from markdown — owned by
+  `module:Outline/parseOutlineFromMarkdown`.

+| FR1 | Outline renders a `nav` carrying the `outline` target, which reflects `density`, named by `label` or the localized "Table of contents", holding a `ul` (`role="list"`) of `li` items, each with a link to `#<id>` whose label truncates with an ellipsis, then an `aria-hidden` indicator track and an `aria-hidden` active indicator. A caller's explicit `aria-label` reaches the `nav` (`architecture:public-component-api` INV5).

Heading levels 1 and 2 share the first indent, and levels 3, 4, and 5–6 take the second, third, and fourth.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         | Current source and tests                                                |
+| FR3 | Each link is in the normal Tab order, and Outline adds no arrow, Home, or End movement between links unless this record names an exception (`spec:AST-020` FR15); Tab leaves the list after its last link. Implementation gap: today the list is one roving Tab stop, seated on the current heading (the first link when none is current, none when empty) and following it unless focus is inside the list, with ArrowDown and ArrowUp moving real DOM focus between links and Home and End jumping to the first and last (Current-state impact; OQ1).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  | Current source and tests; `spec:AST-020` FR15; WCAG 2.2 SC 2.1.1        |
+| FR4 | A click, Enter, or Space on a link whose target exists pushes `#<id>` to history and smoothly scrolls to the heading: at `offset` 0 every scrollable ancestor, the window included, scrolls the heading to the top; with a non-zero `offset` only the scroll root (`scrollContainerRef`, else the nearest scrollable ancestor, else the window) scrolls, landing `offset` pixels plus the heading's own scroll margin below its top; `onNavigateStart` fires when the navigation starts and `onNavigateEnd` exactly once when the scroll settles or the reader interrupts it with a manual scroll, falling back to a timeout when no scroll end arrives; a second navigation ends the first at once, and `onNavigateEnd` does not fire after Outline unmounts mid-scroll. Under reduced motion the navigation scroll does not travel: it lands at once on a fine pointer (`design:reduced-motion` DR3) and cross-fades in 200 ms or less on a coarse pointer (DR2). With `hasScrollOnClick={false}` nothing scrolls: the hash is pushed, the heading marked current, and `onNavigateEnd` fires at once. A click or Enter on a missing target, or any modifier chord, is left to the browser; Space on a missing target does nothing. Following a link moves the sequential focus starting point to the destination, as a native in-page link does (WCAG 2.2 SC 2.4.3). Implementation gaps: the scroll is smooth under reduced motion too; and focus stays on the Outline link, so the next Tab continues after the Outline instead of inside the chosen section (Current-state impact). | Current source and tests                                                |
+| FR5 | Uncontrolled, the current heading follows the reader's scroll position in the scroll root (`scrollContainerRef`, else the nearest scrollable ancestor, else the window), using an activation line shifted by `offset` and each heading's own scroll margin; the first heading is current before any heading passes the line, and the last heading is current once the scroll root reaches its end; a click marks its heading current once the scroll settles. Uncontrolled, `onActiveIdChange` reports each change of the current heading, from scroll or a click; controlled, the Outline does not track scroll, `activeId` decides, and `onActiveIdChange` reports the heading a click selects. Keyboard focus movement and the component's own navigation scroll are not treated as manual scrolling.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 | Current source and tests                                                |
+| FR6 | The active indicator is a 2px `--color-icon-primary` bar over a 2px `--color-border` track at the inline start, positioned against the current link with CSS anchor positioning and moving with a fast standard transition. Under reduced motion the indicator does not travel: on a fine pointer it changes at once (`design:reduced-motion` DR3), and on a coarse pointer it cross-fades in 200 ms or less (DR2).

 ### Allowed variation
 
-- Heading count, labels, levels, density, and active item may vary without
-  changing the five-part anatomy recorded here.
+- **AV1 — Headings.** Heading count, labels, levels, and the current heading
+  vary without changing the anatomy.
+- **AV2 — Density.** Default and compact density use the same anatomy and
+  targets.
 
 ### Representative states
 
-- Controlled and uncontrolled active state use the same anatomy and current
-  targets.
-- Default and compact density use the same anatomy and current targets.
-- An empty items array still renders Outline, Indicator track, and Active
-  indicator; it renders no Heading link or Label instances.

+| Uncontrolled scrolling | The current heading follows scroll; `onActiveIdChange` reports it.                                                               | Offset.           |
+| Controlled             | `activeId` decides; clicks report through `onActiveIdChange`.                                                                    | —                 |
+| Keyboard               | Tab visits each link; Enter and Space navigate; no arrow, Home, or End movement (today a single roving stop with them, FR3 gap). | —                 |
+| Missing target         | A click or Enter behaves as a plain link; Space does nothing; no callbacks.                                                      | —                 |
+| Empty                  | Track and indicator render; no links and so no tab stop.                                                                         | —                 |
 
 ### Transformation and precedence order
 
-- No new navigation, active-state, layout, or styling precedence rule is
-  introduced.
+- **ORD1 — Current heading.** Controlled `activeId` → scroll position.
+- **ORD2 — Activation.** Modifier chord, or a click or Enter on a missing
+  target → browser default; Space on a missing target → nothing; otherwise push
+  the hash, scroll, and fire the callbacks.
 
 ### Performance and resources
 
-- No new performance or resource rule is introduced.
+- **PR1 — Scroll tracking.** While uncontrolled, Outline listens to scroll on
+  its scroll root while mounted; navigation waits for scroll end with a timeout
+  fallback; Outline installs the shared press controller.
 
 ## Accessibility contract
 
-This draft does not change or extend Outline's existing navigation, link,
-current-item, or keyboard behavior.
+- **AR1 — Navigation landmark.** The `nav` is named by a caller's explicit
+  `aria-label`, else by `label` or the localized default (FR1 gap), and the list
+  and items keep list semantics (WCAG 2.2 SC 1.3.1).
+- **AR2 — Current location.** The current link exposes
+  `aria-current="location"`; the indicator and track are hidden from assistive
+  technology.
+- **AR3 — Links in Tab order with real focus.** Every link takes keyboard focus
+  through the normal Tab order and keeps real DOM focus, not
+  `aria-activedescendant` (`spec:AST-020` FR15). Implementation gap: today one
+  roving Tab stop with arrow, Home, and End keys (FR3).

 ## Decision log
 
-None. This draft records current facts and introduces no component-local design
-or theming decision.
+None recorded. The record describes shipped behavior.
 
 ## Open questions
 
-- **OQ1 — Should Indicator track gain a stable public theming target?**
+- **OQ1 — Should Outline adopt a named `spec:AST-020` FR15 exception: one Tab
+  stop for a long heading list, with arrow, Home, and End movement?**
+  (`human-api`) Adopting it would make today's model the contract: a long
+  heading list costs one Tab stop, and keyboard users move inside it with the
+  arrow keys, which Tab-only screen reader users may not discover. Without it,
+  FR3's per-link Tab order stands and today's model stays the gap.
+- **OQ2 — Should Indicator track gain a stable public theming target?**
   (`human-api`) Target exposure is unsettled; the current lack of reachability
   does not decide the answer.
-- **OQ2 — Add exact regression assertions for the Label wrapper and Indicator
-  track identity.** (`checkable`) Current evidence for those two parts is source
-  inspection rather than a uniquely identifying test assertion.
