72
+ (or whole, if unmarked) HTML: tags, classes, layout, copy, fields/buttons added, removed or

74
+ slice's marked position only) until they match 1:1 and update `samples/`. Keep what already
75
+ matches; do not regenerate the slice from scratch.
76
+ - `ELEMENTS_CHANGED`: diff slice.json against the code field by field (fields,
77
+ `apiEndpoint`/UI contract) and fix every drift.
78
+ - `PROMPTS_CHANGED`: apply the UI prompts it prints — each is an instruction the user typed on the

155

157
+ **Find the screen's data sources on the board, not just in `slice.json`.** A screen is often shown by
158
+ one slice but fed by a read model that belongs to *another* slice (e.g. the Contact Details screen
159
+ sits in the Assign Tag slice, yet its contact data comes from the Contact List read model via an edge
160
+ READMODEL → SCREEN). `slice.json` only lists this slice's own elements, so also call
161
+ `mcp__eventmodelers__get_connected_nodes { boardId, nodeId: <screen.id> }` and take every READMODEL
162
+ wired into the screen. Each one is a data source for the displayed values; look up its fields in that
163
+ read model's slice (`.build-kit/.slices/*/*/slice.json`, or `get_node`). A list read model feeding a
164
+ detail screen (`Contact List[]` → one contact) means: query it filtered by the entity id the page
165
+ gets from the route (match the id field, e.g. `contactId` / the command's `recordId`) and render that
166
+ row. If the source read model's slice isn't built, still type and wire against its fields (TODO), do
167

168

169
+ - Data comes from a read model (query component of the same page/screen, via `queryReadModel` /

171
+ when this component owns that read). If that read-model slice is not built yet, wire the component
172
+ against the typed shape and leave a `// TODO(<read model title>)` — do not paste the example in.
173
+ - Select/dropdown *options* come from a read model (e.g. the customer list), never from the
174
+ options drawn in the mockup; the *selected* value comes from the entity's own read model.
175
+ - The only legitimate static content is label/copy and `VITE_DATA_MODE=mock` samples in `samples/*.json`.
176

+ ### Step 3a — Read the scenarios to understand behavior (not to implement rules)
186
+
187
+ **Business logic lives in the backend. The UI never re-implements it.** Do not copy a scenario's
188
+ rules (preconditions, limits, uniqueness, state checks) into the component as validation or guards —
189
+ the backend decides, and a duplicated rule drifts the moment the model changes.
190
+
191
+ Read every entry in `specifications[]` (and the beat runs in `storylines[]` containing this command)
192
+ to understand **how the component should behave around the command**: what the user is trying to
193
+ accomplish, what outcomes exist, and what each outcome must look like. Use them to decide:
194
+
195
+ | Scenario shows | What it tells the UI |
196
+ |---|---|
197
+ | `when` this command → `then` EVENT(s) | the success outcome: what to confirm or reset after `postCommand` resolves, and what `onSuccess` hands the parent |
198
+ | `when` this command → `then` an error / rejection (e.g. "already reserved") | the failure outcomes that exist: render each as its own readable message from the `ApiError` the backend returns — not one generic failure. The backend decides *whether* it fails; the UI only shows it |
199
+ | `optional` fields, fields that vary between scenarios | which inputs are required vs. optional in the form (mirror the flags, no invented rules) |
200
+ | `given` events before the command | context for what the user was doing — background to understand the flow, not logic to reproduce |
201
+ | a `STORYLINE_NOTE` beat | background only |
202
+
203
+ Rules:
204
+ - Understand, don't implement: no business validation, no precondition checks, no computed outcomes
205
+ in the component. Only presentation: states (idle/submitting/success/error), required-vs-optional
206
+ inputs, and showing what the backend returns.
207
+ - If a scenario's outcome needs a UI state the markup doesn't show, add the minimal state and note
