+- `required` adds a visible asterisk (`aria-hidden`) plus a visually-hidden "(required)" text alternative in the legend, so requiredness is announced in the group's accessible name. `aria-required` is deliberately **not** set on the fieldset — that attribute is only supported ARIA on the `checkbox`, `combobox`, `gridcell`, `listbox`, `radiogroup`, `spinbutton`, `textbox` and `tree` roles; a bare `<fieldset>` maps to the generic `group` role (there is no ARIA `checkboxgroup` role), so assistive tech would silently ignore it
+- `disabled` on the group sets the shadow `<fieldset disabled>` **and** explicitly propagates the `disabled` attribute to every slotted `<bds-checkbox>` — a shadow-DOM `<fieldset disabled>` has no effect on slotted light-DOM custom elements on its own, so propagation happens in JS (on `disabled` change and on `slotchange`)
+- The fieldset's `aria-describedby` points at the rendered error/hint message id, so screen readers announce it as part of the group's description
 - Error messages use `role="alert"` so they are announced immediately

+## How auto-collapse works
+
+CSS [`@container`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Reference/At-rules/@container) query *conditions* can't reference custom properties (`var()` inside a container-query feature value is invalid CSS), so the per-instance `--fieldGroup_collapse-threshold` can't drive an `@container` rule directly. Instead, the component renders a hidden `.probe` element whose own inline-size resolves `--fieldGroup_collapse-threshold` as a normal property value, and a `ResizeObserver` compares the probe's resolved pixel width against the `<fieldset>`'s own width, toggling `data-collapsed="true"` on the **host** when the fieldset is narrower. This mirrors the React `FieldGroup` component's mechanism exactly. `ResizeObserver` is required for the collapse to run; it's supported by all current browsers, and in its absence the layout simply stays in its declared variant.
+
 ## Notes on shadow DOM
 
-The component renders its own `<fieldset>` inside the shadow root and projects fields through a `<slot>`. Because slotted elements stay in the host's light DOM, the native `fieldset[disabled]` cascade onto descendants is browser-dependent — modern browsers do propagate disabled to slotted form controls; older ones may not. If you support an older runtime and need a hard guarantee, set `disabled` on each slotted field too.
+The component renders its own `<fieldset>` inside the shadow root and projects fields through a `<slot>`. Slotted elements' actual DOM parent stays the host (not the shadow-root fieldset), so the UA's native `fieldset[disabled]` cascade-to-descendants behaviour — which walks the DOM tree, not the flattened/composed tree — **never reaches them**, in any browser. To compensate, the component explicitly sets `.disabled` on each directly-slotted form control whenever `disabled` changes or new fields are slotted in, and tracks which controls it disabled so re-enabling the group never overrides a control a consumer had individually disabled beforehand. Deeply-nested form controls (e.g. a slotted wrapper `<div>` containing an `<input>`) are not reached — keep form controls as direct children of `<bds-field-group>`.

+
+`--input_*` (e.g. `--input_border`, `--input_radius`, `--input_shadow`, `--input_color`, `--input_color_bg`) are deprecated aliases for the `--formInput_*` tokens above — they still work but `--formInput_*` is the documented, forward-compatible name. `--formInput_border-color` is a web-component-only legacy override for the inset ring colour (fallback `currentcolor`); prefer `--formInput_border` for adding a visible border.

@@ -94,5 +108,6 @@ Use `<bds-form-input>` for single-line text fields in forms. It handles label as
 - `required` adds `aria-required="true"` and a visual asterisk
 - `error` sets `aria-invalid="true"` and links the error message via `aria-describedby`
 - `hint` is linked via `aria-describedby` for screen reader announcement
+- When both `error` and `hint` are set, both messages render (matching the React component) so `aria-describedby` never references an id that isn't in the DOM
 - Error messages use `role="alert"` so they are announced immediately
-- The focus ring is applied to the wrapper element, not the inner input
+- The focus ring is applied to the wrapper element, not the inner input, and only appears for keyboard/`:focus-visible` focus — clicking into the field highlights the frame colour without showing the outline ring

 ## Accessibility
 
-- Decrement button has `aria-label="Decrease"` and increment has `aria-label="Increase"`
+- `label` renders a shadow `<label for>` wired to the inner input's `id`, so the field always has an accessible name when a label is provided — leaving `label` unset renders no label element and no accessible name
+- Decrement button has `aria-label="Decrease"` and increment has `aria-label="Increase"`, and both steppers carry `aria-controls` pointing at the input's `id`
+- The input exposes `aria-invalid` (`"true"` when `error` is set) and `aria-describedby`, referencing the rendered error or hint message
 - Stepper buttons are disabled when the value is at `min` or `max`
 - The stepper buttons use `tabindex="-1"` so keyboard users navigate directly to the numeric input
 - `disabled` disables both the input and the stepper buttons
