+The boilerplate pre-declares every wire hook the contract requires (\`useAction\`, \`useStream\`, \`useGguiContext\`, plus capability hooks from \`@ggui-ai/gadgets\` when the contract declares \`clientCapabilities\`). Three rules:
+1. **Do NOT delete any pre-declared hook.** \`self_check\` fails with \`wire_preservation:<kind>:<name>\` if you remove one.
+2. **Consume every hook binding** somewhere in the component \u2014 in JSX, a callback, or an effect. Unused bindings fail lint with \`no-unused-vars\`.
+3. **Do NOT invent new wire calls.** Every \`useAction('X')\`, \`useStream('X')\`, \`useGguiContext('X')\` etc. MUST correspond to a declared entry on the contract. Calling one that isn't declared fails \`self_check\` with \`wire_undeclared:<kind>:<name>\` because the runtime has no Context/registration for it and would throw at first paint. If you need a new wire surface, that's a contract authoring step the agent owns \u2014 your job is to honor what's declared.

+
+Props arrive at mount and may be partial on first render; later prop changes reach the SAME mounted component via \`ggui_amend\` (in-place repaint) on the live channel. Stream channels start empty and fill over time. Context slots start at their declared default (often \`null\`). **Never assume a field exists before you read it.**
+
+- **Optional contract props**: a \`Props\` field marked \`?\` in the boilerplate may be omitted by the agent ENTIRELY \u2014 the wire gate only enforces \`required: true\` entries, and the harness verifies your component with those props stripped. Guard them (\`?? default\`, \`?.\`, or an empty-state branch) from the FIRST render.
+- **Array iteration**: always default to \`[]\` before \`.map\`/\`.filter\`/\`.length\`. Use \`(props.items ?? []).map(...)\` not \`props.items.map(...)\`. Same for stream.all, stream.latest, etc.
+- **Object access**: optional-chain through nested fields. \`props.user?.name ?? 'Anonymous'\` not \`props.user.name\`.
+- **Number ops**: default before arithmetic. \`(props.count ?? 0) + 1\` not \`props.count + 1\`.
+- **Stream latest**: \`useStream\` returns \`{latest: T | null, all: T[], isComplete: boolean}\`. The default \`all\` is \`[]\` so it's safe to map; \`latest\` is null until the first frame arrives \u2014 guard before reading \`.foo\`.
+- **Stream reconciliation**: when a stream event carries an \`action\` discriminant (e.g. \`create | move | edit | delete\`), the channel is a CRUD feed \u2014 your handler MUST branch on EVERY value: append on \`create\`, drop on \`delete\`, replace-by-id on \`move\` / \`edit\`. Merging only the "edit" case silently loses created and deleted items. Reconcile into the SAME state that seeds from \`props\` (e.g. \`useState(() => props.tasks ?? [])\`) so the seed data and the live feed render as one list \u2014 and handle an event whose id is not yet present (a \`create\` for an unknown item) by inserting it, not ignoring it.
+- **Props re-sync on repaint**: props the agent owns are the source of truth for display \u2014 prefer rendering DIRECTLY from \`props\` (controlled, no local copy). When local optimistic state genuinely needs a prop seed (a click bumps a count before the agent confirms), it MUST re-sync on prop change \u2014 \`useEffect(() => setCount(props.count ?? 0), [props.count])\` \u2014 or a \`ggui_amend\` repaint applies the new props while the display keeps the stale local value. BAD: \`const [count, setCount] = useState(props.count ?? 0)\` alone. GOOD: the same seed + the one-line re-sync effect.
+- **Loading state**: while data is still absent, render \`<Skeleton>\` placeholders \u2014 never a blank screen. \`<Skeleton variant="text" />\` for a text line, \`variant="circle"\` for an avatar slot, default \`rect\` for a block.
+- **Empty state**: when a list or results array is empty, render \`<EmptyState title="\u2026" description="\u2026" />\` \u2014 a region that renders nothing when empty looks broken to the user.

+| -------------- | ---------- | ----- |
+| Fire a server-side action | \`useAction(name)\` + call \`dispatch(name, payload)\` | Every action is agent-routed. The runtime emits an event on \`ggui_consume\`; the agent reacts on its next turn. If the contract entry declares \`nextStep: 'X'\`, that names the tool the agent SHOULD call next \u2014 advisory hint forwarded as event metadata. |
+| Surface state to the agent's context | the auto-generated \`setSlotName\` setter (from the boilerplate's \`useGguiContext\` line) | The runtime owns useState + Provider; the boilerplate emits one \`const [slot, setSlot] = useGguiContext<T>('slot')\` line per declared \`contextSpec\` slot. Write plain JSX, no \`useState\`, no Provider wrap. Every value change auto-flows to the host LLM (debounced). One-way client \u2192 agent \u2014 see "Observable state via \`contextSpec\`" below. |
+| Use a browser capability (camera, mic, geolocation, clipboard, file picker, notifications) | call the hook the contract declared, e.g., \`const loc = useGeolocation();\` and \`await loc.start()\` | The contract's \`clientCapabilities.gadgets\` declares which gadget exports the UI uses. The hook implementations live in \`@ggui-ai/gadgets\` (or a third-party package named in the \`Package\` column). Read \`status\` ("idle" / "prompting" / "active" / "completed" / "denied" / "error") to gate UI, and thread the resolved \`value\` into a contextSpec slot or actionSpec payload if the agent needs to see it. |
+| Open external link | Plain \`<a href="https://...">\` (or \`target="_blank"\`) | External cross-origin clicks are intercepted and routed through the host (security warnings, app-internal navigation, audit). Same-origin links and \`#fragment\` jumps stay native. |
+| Toggle fullscreen / chrome | Plain \`el.requestFullscreen()\` / \`document.exitFullscreen()\` | The native browser API is intercepted; the host adjusts iframe chrome accordingly. Returns a resolved promise so \`.then()\` / \`await\` chains don't break. |
+
+Every gesture fires a uniform server-side audit envelope (\`ggui_runtime_submit_action\`) so operators see all three patterns in RenderInspector with the same shape.
+
+**Don't import wire hooks for link / display-mode.** \`useAction\` is the only wire hook for user gestures; links and fullscreen use plain HTML / browser APIs.
+
+**All actions are agent-routed.** Every action emits an event the agent reacts to on its next turn via \`ggui_consume\`. The optional \`nextStep: '<tool>'\` field on an \`actionSpec\` entry is a HINT naming the tool the agent SHOULD call next \u2014 the contract author's recommendation, NOT a binding directive. The agent decides whether to honor it. If you want to declare a tool catalog entry the contract references, add it to \`agentCapabilities.tools[<name>]\` with input/output schemas; the cross-ref linter rejects dangling \`nextStep\` values that don't resolve to a declared catalog entry.`;

+- \`as={Hoverable}\` \u2192 \`hoverStyle\` only (no click). \`as={Pressable}\` \u2192 \`onPress\` + \`pressStyle\`.
+
+\`as={Trait}\` is a PROP \u2014 it does NOT re-nest the JSX. Never write \`<Clickable>\u2026</Clickable>\` around a primitive; put \`as={Clickable}\` on the primitive itself. The trait carries the keyboard + ARIA wiring, so don't hand-write \`onKeyDown\` / \`role\`. Trait components (\`Clickable\`, \`Hoverable\`, \`Pressable\`) import from \`@ggui-ai/design\` like everything else \u2014 the boilerplate already imports them.
+
+**Semantic components are already interactive** \u2014 \`Button\` (\`onClick\`), \`Link\` (\`href\`), \`Input\` / \`Select\` (\`onChange\`). Use their own props; never put \`as\` on them. \`Text\` picks its element with \`is\` (\`<Text is="label">\`), not \`as\`.
+
+**Never nest two interactive elements.** Interactive content MUST NOT contain other interactive content \u2014 a gesture on the inner control bubbles to the outer one and fires BOTH handlers (one user click \u2192 the action dispatched twice). Do NOT put a \`Button\`, \`Checkbox\`, \`Input\`, \`Select\`, \`Link\`, or another \`as={Clickable}\` primitive inside a \`Card\` / \`Box\` / \`Row\` / \`Stack\` that is itself \`as={Clickable}\`. Wire each \`useAction\` callback to exactly ONE surface: EITHER the whole card is the trigger (interactive container, no interactive children) OR an inner control is the trigger (plain container, no \`as={Clickable}\`) \u2014 never both. A row with a checkbox: put the action on the \`Checkbox onChange\` and leave the row plain.
+
+**\`Text\` / \`Heading\` accept NO event handlers and NO \`as\` \u2014 only \`style\` / \`className\` plus their own typed props.** \`onClick\`, \`onDoubleClick\`, \`as={Clickable}\`, \`color\` are all type errors on \`Text\`. When the request says a label is "clickable", "editable", "edit on click / double-click", or "tap to \u2026", do ONE of these \u2014 never put the handler on \`Text\`:

+var CONTEXT_SPEC_SECTION = `## Observable state via \`contextSpec\`
+
+When the contract declares \`contextSpec\`, the boilerplate auto-generates one \`useGguiContext\` call per slot at the top of your component. The runtime owns the underlying \`useState\` and the Provider tree \u2014 **you do NOT write \`useState\` or any \`<Provider>\` wrap yourself**:
+
+\`\`\`tsx
+import { useGguiContext } from '@ggui-ai/wire';
+
+export default function Component(props: Props) {
+  // AUTO-GENERATED \u2014 do not remove or rename:
+  const [currentStep, setCurrentStep] = useGguiContext<number>('currentStep');
+  const [draftText, setDraftText] = useGguiContext<string>('draftText');
+
+  // Plain JSX. No Provider wrap. The runtime already wrapped your
+  // component in nested SingleSlotProviders before this code ran.
+  return (
+    <Container>
+      <Text>Step {currentStep}</Text>
+      <Input value={draftText} onChange={(e) => setDraftText(e.target.value)} />
+      <Button onClick={() => setCurrentStep((s) => s + 1)}>Next</Button>
+    </Container>
+  );
+}
+\`\`\`
+
+For every declared slot you have **\`slotName\` + \`setSlotName\`** in scope:
+- **Read** the value to render: \`<Text>Step {currentStep}</Text>\`
+- **Write** via the setter: \`setCurrentStep(s => s + 1)\` (in callbacks, effects, anywhere)
+
+Every value change is mirrored to the host LLM's context automatically (debounced, default 300ms \u2014 adjustable per-slot via \`entry.debounceMs\` in the contract). The agent sees the user's interaction state \u2014 drafts, current step, hover, selection \u2014 without you calling any API.
+
+**When to use the auto-generated state.** Any slot the contract declared. If \`contextSpec.draftText\` exists, bind \`<Input value={draftText} onChange={e => setDraftText(e.target.value)}>\` so the agent sees the typing live. If \`contextSpec.currentStep\` exists, render the step indicator from \`currentStep\` and bump it via \`setCurrentStep\` in your "next" callback.
+
+**When NOT to use it.** Local UI state the contract did NOT declare \u2014 \`isDropdownOpen\`, hover flags, animation phase, ephemeral toggles. For those, use a plain \`useState\` directly. The runtime ignores undeclared state.
+
+**\`contextSpec\` direction is one-way: client \u2192 agent.** The agent uses \`propsSpec\` (via \`ggui_amend\` for in-place repaints of this mount, or \`ggui_update\` when it mints a new history card) and \`streamSpec\` (via the live channel) to push state TO the client. Don't try to write to the agent via \`contextSpec\` \u2014 there is no return path.
+
+**Schema mismatches drop silently.** If you set a value that doesn't match the slot's schema (e.g. a string into a \`{type: 'number'}\` slot), the runtime logs a dev \`console.warn\` and skips the post. Make sure your setter calls produce values that match the declared shape.`;
+var DATA_PARAMETERIZATION = `## Data Parameterization (CRITICAL)
+
+Generated components are CACHED blueprints reused across requests. NEVER hardcode request-specific data (names, cities, numbers, dates) into the component body. Define data as default prop values so the blueprint works for ANY similar request:
+
+\`\`\`tsx
+// BAD \u2014 hardcoded, only works for Tokyo
+const city = "Tokyo";
+const temp = 18;
+
+// GOOD \u2014 parameterized via props with defaults from the request
+interface Props {
+  city?: string;
+  temperature?: number;
+}
+export default function WeatherCard({ city = "Tokyo", temperature = 18 }: Props) {
+  // A controller can override for Seoul, Paris, etc.
+}
+\`\`\`
+
+Rules:
+1. All request-specific data \u2192 props with defaults. City names, tickers, user names, dates, counts.
+2. Layout and styling are universal. Colors, spacing, structure \u2014 these are the reusable part.
+3. Default values come from the current request \u2014 so the component renders correctly standalone.
+4. Copy comes from the props. NEVER invent display text the contract does not carry \u2014 no eyebrow / kicker / overline (a \`<Text caps>\` label), no helper line, no status text, no tagline. A caps label exists only when a prop supplies its text (\`<Text caps>{props.section}</Text>\`); a heading's fallback is the request's own words, never a slogan of your own. Text the agent cannot change is chatter on every render.
+5. Props interface must be typed and exported.`;
+var FRAME_SIZING = `## Sizing \u2014 the frame owns the height
+
+The host sizes the iframe; the component never sizes itself to the viewport. NEVER write \`100vh\` / \`100dvh\` / \`100svh\` (or an \`h-screen\` / \`min-h-screen\` class) as a height on any element:
+- An inline card takes its natural height. A content-sized frame is measured FROM the content, so a \`100vh\` root can never shrink and grows the frame on every re-measure.
+- Under fullscreen the frame already stretches your root to its full height. Centre inside it with flex (\`display: flex; flex-direction: column; justify-content: center\`), never with a viewport height.
+- To fill a parent that has a height use \`height: 100%\` or \`flex: 1\`; a viewport unit is only ever a \`max-height\` cap on a scroll region.`;

-## Protocol Notes
-The boilerplate pre-declares every wire hook the contract requires (\`useAction\`, \`useStream\`, \`useGguiContext\`, plus capability hooks from \`@ggui-ai/gadgets\` when the contract declares \`clientCapabilities\`). Three rules:
-1. **Do NOT delete any pre-declared hook.** \`self_check\` fails with \`wire_preservation:<kind>:<name>\` if you remove one.
-2. **Consume every hook binding** somewhere in the component \u2014 in JSX, a callback, or an effect. Unused bindings fail lint with \`no-unused-vars\`.
-3. **Do NOT invent new wire calls.** Every \`useAction('X')\`, \`useStream('X')\`, \`useGguiContext('X')\` etc. MUST correspond to a declared entry on the contract. Calling one that isn't declared fails \`self_check\` with \`wire_undeclared:<kind>:<name>\` because the runtime has no Context/registration for it and would throw at first paint. If you need a new wire surface, that's a contract authoring step the agent owns \u2014 your job is to honor what's declared.
-
-Renaming a binding is fine \u2014 the wiring is the string-literal argument, not the identifier.
-
-## Contract surface \u2014 four specs + two catalogs
-
-A \`DataContract\` declares everything a GguiSession exchanges with the outside world. **Four typed specs** for the four data-flow directions, **two reference catalogs** for tool / hook lookups:
-
-| Surface              | Direction                  | Role                                                                 |
-| -------------------- | -------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| \`propsSpec\`         | server \u2192 UI (one-shot)     | Initial render values delivered once at \`ggui_render\`              |
-| \`streamSpec\`        | agent \u2192 UI (many)          | Typed channels for live updates via \`ggui_emit\`                    |
-| \`actionSpec\`        | UI \u2192 agent (events)        | Discrete events driving the agent's next turn (consumed via \`ggui_consume\`) |
-| \`contextSpec\`       | UI \u2192 server (state mirror) | UI state the agent observes between turns                            |
-| \`agentCapabilities.tools\`     | catalog                    | Tools the contract references via \`actionSpec[*].nextStep\` and \`streamSpec[*].source.tool\` |
-| \`clientCapabilities.gadgets\` | catalog                    | Browser-capability gadget hooks the component code mounts (e.g., \`useGeolocation\`) |
-
-**Placement rule for inbound specs**: actions drive turns; context observes state. There is no third category.
-
-**Data vs behavior**: the contract describes data flow; the component code describes behavior. Scroll, focus, toast, animation, clipboard write \u2014 all component code, never contract fields.
-
-## Defensive coding for absent / late-arriving data
-
-Props arrive at mount and may be partial on first render; later prop changes reach the SAME mounted component via \`ggui_amend\` (in-place repaint) on the live channel. Stream channels start empty and fill over time. Context slots start at their declared default (often \`null\`). **Never assume a field exists before you read it.**
-
-- **Optional contract props**: a \`Props\` field marked \`?\` in the boilerplate may be omitted by the agent ENTIRELY \u2014 the wire gate only enforces \`required: true\` entries, and the harness verifies your component with those props stripped. Guard them (\`?? default\`, \`?.\`, or an empty-state branch) from the FIRST render.
-- **Array iteration**: always default to \`[]\` before \`.map\`/\`.filter\`/\`.length\`. Use \`(props.items ?? []).map(...)\` not \`props.items.map(...)\`. Same for stream.all, stream.latest, etc.
-- **Object access**: optional-chain through nested fields. \`props.user?.name ?? 'Anonymous'\` not \`props.user.name\`.
-- **Number ops**: default before arithmetic. \`(props.count ?? 0) + 1\` not \`props.count + 1\`.
-- **Stream latest**: \`useStream\` returns \`{latest: T | null, all: T[], isComplete: boolean}\`. The default \`all\` is \`[]\` so it's safe to map; \`latest\` is null until the first frame arrives \u2014 guard before reading \`.foo\`.
-- **Stream reconciliation**: when a stream event carries an \`action\` discriminant (e.g. \`create | move | edit | delete\`), the channel is a CRUD feed \u2014 your handler MUST branch on EVERY value: append on \`create\`, drop on \`delete\`, replace-by-id on \`move\` / \`edit\`. Merging only the "edit" case silently loses created and deleted items. Reconcile into the SAME state that seeds from \`props\` (e.g. \`useState(() => props.tasks ?? [])\`) so the seed data and the live feed render as one list \u2014 and handle an event whose id is not yet present (a \`create\` for an unknown item) by inserting it, not ignoring it.
-- **Props re-sync on repaint**: props the agent owns are the source of truth for display \u2014 prefer rendering DIRECTLY from \`props\` (controlled, no local copy). When local optimistic state genuinely needs a prop seed (a click bumps a count before the agent confirms), it MUST re-sync on prop change \u2014 \`useEffect(() => setCount(props.count ?? 0), [props.count])\` \u2014 or a \`ggui_amend\` repaint applies the new props while the display keeps the stale local value. BAD: \`const [count, setCount] = useState(props.count ?? 0)\` alone. GOOD: the same seed + the one-line re-sync effect.
-- **Loading state**: while data is still absent, render \`<Skeleton>\` placeholders \u2014 never a blank screen. \`<Skeleton variant="text" />\` for a text line, \`variant="circle"\` for an avatar slot, default \`rect\` for a block.
-- **Empty state**: when a list or results array is empty, render \`<EmptyState title="\u2026" description="\u2026" />\` \u2014 a region that renders nothing when empty looks broken to the user.
-
-Unhandled \`Cannot read properties of undefined\` errors trip the iframe error boundary and the user sees "Something went wrong" \u2014 a regression class the runtime can't recover from.
-
-## Picking the right primitive for user gestures
-
-Choose by what the user is DOING, not where the result goes \u2014 the runtime handles the routing.
-
-| Gesture intent | LLM writes | Notes |
-| -------------- | ---------- | ----- |
-| Fire a server-side action | \`useAction(name)\` + call \`dispatch(name, payload)\` | Every action is agent-routed. The runtime emits an event on \`ggui_consume\`; the agent reacts on its next turn. If the contract entry declares \`nextStep: 'X'\`, that names the tool the agent SHOULD call next \u2014 advisory hint forwarded as event metadata. |
-| Surface state to the agent's context | the auto-generated \`setSlotName\` setter (from the boilerplate's \`useGguiContext\` line) | The runtime owns useState + Provider; the boilerplate emits one \`const [slot, setSlot] = useGguiContext<T>('slot')\` line per declared \`contextSpec\` slot. Write plain JSX, no \`useState\`, no Provider wrap. Every value change auto-flows to the host LLM (debounced). One-way client \u2192 agent \u2014 see "Observable state via \`contextSpec\`" below. |
-| Use a browser capability (camera, mic, geolocation, clipboard, file picker, notifications) | call the hook the contract declared, e.g., \`const loc = useGeolocation();\` and \`await loc.start()\` | The contract's \`clientCapabilities.gadgets\` declares which gadget exports the UI uses. The hook implementations live in \`@ggui-ai/gadgets\` (or a third-party package named in the \`Package\` column). Read \`status\` ("idle" / "prompting" / "active" / "completed" / "denied" / "error") to gate UI, and thread the resolved \`value\` into a contextSpec slot or actionSpec payload if the agent needs to see it. |
-| Open external link | Plain \`<a href="https://...">\` (or \`target="_blank"\`) | External cross-origin clicks are intercepted and routed through the host (security warnings, app-internal navigation, audit). Same-origin links and \`#fragment\` jumps stay native. |
-| Toggle fullscreen / chrome | Plain \`el.requestFullscreen()\` / \`document.exitFullscreen()\` | The native browser API is intercepted; the host adjusts iframe chrome accordingly. Returns a resolved promise so \`.then()\` / \`await\` chains don't break. |
-
-Every gesture fires a uniform server-side audit envelope (\`ggui_runtime_submit_action\`) so operators see all three patterns in RenderInspector with the same shape.
-
-**Don't import wire hooks for link / display-mode.** \`useAction\` is the only wire hook for user gestures; links and fullscreen use plain HTML / browser APIs.
-
-**All actions are agent-routed.** Every action emits an event the agent reacts to on its next turn via \`ggui_consume\`. The optional \`nextStep: '<tool>'\` field on an \`actionSpec\` entry is a HINT naming the tool the agent SHOULD call next \u2014 the contract author's recommendation, NOT a binding directive. The agent decides whether to honor it. If you want to declare a tool catalog entry the contract references, add it to \`agentCapabilities.tools[<name>]\` with input/output schemas; the cross-ref linter rejects dangling \`nextStep\` values that don't resolve to a declared catalog entry.
-
-## Making a primitive interactive \u2014 \`as={Trait}\`
-
-Structural primitives (\`Box\`, \`Stack\`, \`Row\`, \`Card\`) have NO \`onClick\` by default. Add interactivity with the \`as\` prop \u2014 a trait, not a wrapper:
-
-\`\`\`tsx
-<Card as={Clickable} onClick={() => dispatch('select', { id })}
-      hoverStyle={{ boxShadow: 'var(--ggui-shape-shadow-lg)' }}>\u2026</Card>
-\`\`\`
-
-- \`as={Clickable}\` \u2192 \`onClick\` + keyboard activation (Enter/Space) + \`role="button"\` + \`hoverStyle\`/\`activeStyle\`/\`cursor\`.
-- \`as={Hoverable}\` \u2192 \`hoverStyle\` only (no click). \`as={Pressable}\` \u2192 \`onPress\` + \`pressStyle\`.
-
-\`as={Trait}\` is a PROP \u2014 it does NOT re-nest the JSX. Never write \`<Clickable>\u2026</Clickable>\` around a primitive; put \`as={Clickable}\` on the primitive itself. The trait carries the keyboard + ARIA wiring, so don't hand-write \`onKeyDown\` / \`role\`. Trait components (\`Clickable\`, \`Hoverable\`, \`Pressable\`) import from \`@ggui-ai/design\` like everything else \u2014 the boilerplate already imports them.
-
-**Semantic components are already interactive** \u2014 \`Button\` (\`onClick\`), \`Link\` (\`href\`), \`Input\` / \`Select\` (\`onChange\`). Use their own props; never put \`as\` on them. \`Text\` picks its element with \`is\` (\`<Text is="label">\`), not \`as\`.
-
-**Never nest two interactive elements.** Interactive content MUST NOT contain other interactive content \u2014 a gesture on the inner control bubbles to the outer one and fires BOTH handlers (one user click \u2192 the action dispatched twice). Do NOT put a \`Button\`, \`Checkbox\`, \`Input\`, \`Select\`, \`Link\`, or another \`as={Clickable}\` primitive inside a \`Card\` / \`Box\` / \`Row\` / \`Stack\` that is itself \`as={Clickable}\`. Wire each \`useAction\` callback to exactly ONE surface: EITHER the whole card is the trigger (interactive container, no interactive children) OR an inner control is the trigger (plain container, no \`as={Clickable}\`) \u2014 never both. A row with a checkbox: put the action on the \`Checkbox onChange\` and leave the row plain.
-
-**\`Text\` / \`Heading\` accept NO event handlers and NO \`as\` \u2014 only \`style\` / \`className\` plus their own typed props.** \`onClick\`, \`onDoubleClick\`, \`as={Clickable}\`, \`color\` are all type errors on \`Text\`. When the request says a label is "clickable", "editable", "edit on click / double-click", or "tap to \u2026", do ONE of these \u2014 never put the handler on \`Text\`:
-
-\`\`\`tsx
-// Click-to-edit a label: wrap the Text in a Clickable structural primitive.
-<Box as={Clickable} onClick={() => setEditingId(task.id)}
-     style={{ cursor: 'pointer' }}>
-  <Text weight="semibold">{task.title}</Text>
-</Box>
-
-// Or pair the label with an explicit edit Button (clearer affordance).
-<Row gap="xs" align="center">
-  <Text weight="semibold">{task.title}</Text>
-  <Button variant="ghost" size="xs" aria-label="Edit title"
-          onClick={() => setEditingId(task.id)}>Edit</Button>
-</Row>
-
-// In edit mode, swap the Text for an Input.
-{editingId === task.id
-  ? <Input value={draftTitle} onChange={setDraftTitle} label="Task title" />
-  : <Text weight="semibold">{task.title}</Text>}
-\`\`\`
-
-## Anti-patterns \u2014 DO NOT WRITE
-
-The following identifiers / shapes are RETIRED from the contract surface as of 2026-05-11. Pre-2026-05-11 examples in your training data may include them; do not reproduce. The linter / CI grep gate rejects:
-
-- \`useWiredTool\`, \`useClientTool\` \u2014 retired hooks. Replace with \`useAction\` (events) and the named hook from \`@ggui-ai/gadgets\` (browser capabilities).
-- \`dispatch: { kind: 'tool', tool: '...' }\` / \`dispatch: { kind: 'agent', intendedTool: '...' }\` \u2014 retired discriminated-union. Use the flat optional \`nextStep?: '<tool>'\` instead.
-- \`mode: 'host-routed'\` / \`mode: 'tool'\` \u2014 retired \`mode\` field. Same fix: flat \`nextStep?\`.
-- \`broadcast: {...}\` on the contract \u2014 retired top-level field. Use \`streamSpec[channel].source: {tool, args?}\` to declare a tool-fed channel.
-- \`wiredTools\` / \`agentTools\` (top-level) \u2014 retired catalog names. Use \`agentCapabilities.tools\`.
-- \`clientTools\` / \`clientCapabilities.capabilities\` \u2014 retired catalog shapes. Use \`clientCapabilities.gadgets\` (entries declare hooks, not RPC).
-- \`@ggui-ai/client-tools\` \u2014 retired package name. Import gadget hooks from \`@ggui-ai/gadgets\`.
-- \`intendedTool\` \u2014 retired. Use \`nextStep\` (flat).
-- \`props: { properties: {...} }\` as a CONTRACT field \u2014 retired. The contract field is \`propsSpec\` (the wire \`props\` field on render / update still carries VALUES).
-
-## Cross-reference rules
-
-When you declare a reference, also declare the catalog entry it points at:
-
-- \`actionSpec[X].nextStep = 'fetch_inbox'\` \u2192 \`agentCapabilities.tools.fetch_inbox = { toolInfo: { inputSchema, description?, outputSchema? }, usage?, example? }\` MUST exist. Cross-ref code: \`CTR_REF_NEXT_STEP\`.
-- \`streamSpec[X].source.tool = 'list_messages'\` \u2192 \`agentCapabilities.tools.list_messages\` MUST exist. Cross-ref code: \`CTR_REF_STREAM_SOURCE\`.
-- The catalog entry's schemas MUST be a superset of the referencing spec's schema. Cross-ref code: \`CTR_SCHEMA_INCOMPAT\`.
-
-## clientCapabilities \u2014 registered catalog
-
-${gadgetsSection}
-
-Each hook conforms to \`GadgetHook<TOutput, TOptions>\`: call \`start(opts?)\` to fire, read \`{value, status, error, stop?}\`. \`status\` walks through \`idle \u2192 prompting \u2192 active|completed\` or routes to \`denied\` / \`error\` on failure.
-
-3rd-party plugins (Leaflet maps, Mapbox, Stripe, Chart.js, \u2026) are registered via \`createGguiGadget\` from \`@ggui-ai/gadgets\` and surface in this same table when the operator has added them to \`App.gadgets\`. Reference any registered hook by name \u2014 render validation rejects hooks not in this catalog with \`gadget_not_registered\`.
-
-## Observable state via \`contextSpec\`
-
-When the contract declares \`contextSpec\`, the boilerplate auto-generates one \`useGguiContext\` call per slot at the top of your component. The runtime owns the underlying \`useState\` and the Provider tree \u2014 **you do NOT write \`useState\` or any \`<Provider>\` wrap yourself**:
-
-\`\`\`tsx
-import { useGguiContext } from '@ggui-ai/wire';
-
-export default function Component(props: Props) {
-  // AUTO-GENERATED \u2014 do not remove or rename:
-  const [currentStep, setCurrentStep] = useGguiContext<number>('currentStep');
-  const [draftText, setDraftText] = useGguiContext<string>('draftText');
-
-  // Plain JSX. No Provider wrap. The runtime already wrapped your
-  // component in nested SingleSlotProviders before this code ran.
-  return (
-    <Container>
-      <Text>Step {currentStep}</Text>
-      <Input value={draftText} onChange={(e) => setDraftText(e.target.value)} />
-      <Button onClick={() => setCurrentStep((s) => s + 1)}>Next</Button>
-    </Container>
-  );
-}
-\`\`\`
-
-For every declared slot you have **\`slotName\` + \`setSlotName\`** in scope:
-- **Read** the value to render: \`<Text>Step {currentStep}</Text>\`
-- **Write** via the setter: \`setCurrentStep(s => s + 1)\` (in callbacks, effects, anywhere)
-
-Every value change is mirrored to the host LLM's context automatically (debounced, default 300ms \u2014 adjustable per-slot via \`entry.debounceMs\` in the contract). The agent sees the user's interaction state \u2014 drafts, current step, hover, selection \u2014 without you calling any API.
-
-**When to use the auto-generated state.** Any slot the contract declared. If \`contextSpec.draftText\` exists, bind \`<Input value={draftText} onChange={e => setDraftText(e.target.value)}>\` so the agent sees the typing live. If \`contextSpec.currentStep\` exists, render the step indicator from \`currentStep\` and bump it via \`setCurrentStep\` in your "next" callback.
-
-**When NOT to use it.** Local UI state the contract did NOT declare \u2014 \`isDropdownOpen\`, hover flags, animation phase, ephemeral toggles. For those, use a plain \`useState\` directly. The runtime ignores undeclared state.
-
-**\`contextSpec\` direction is one-way: client \u2192 agent.** The agent uses \`propsSpec\` (via \`ggui_amend\` for in-place repaints of this mount, or \`ggui_update\` when it mints a new history card) and \`streamSpec\` (via the live channel) to push state TO the client. Don't try to write to the agent via \`contextSpec\` \u2014 there is no return path.
-
-**Schema mismatches drop silently.** If you set a value that doesn't match the slot's schema (e.g. a string into a \`{type: 'number'}\` slot), the runtime logs a dev \`console.warn\` and skips the post. Make sure your setter calls produce values that match the declared shape.

 - \`<Stack gap="...">\` / \`<Row gap="...">\` \u2014 \`gap\` takes the **spacing scale** (next bullet). \`align\` (cross-axis) is ONLY \`start | center | end | stretch\` and \`justify\` (main-axis) is ONLY \`start | center | end | between | around | evenly\` \u2014 NEVER the raw CSS values \`flex-start\` / \`flex-end\` / \`space-between\`, which are type errors.
 - **Spacing scale** \u2014 \`gap\` (Stack / Row / Grid) and \`padding\` (Card / Box / Container) take a t-shirt size: \`none | xs | sm | md | lg | xl | 2xl\`. Each resolves to a \`--ggui-spacing-*\` token (xs\u22484px, sm\u22488px, md\u224816px, lg\u224824px, xl\u224832px, 2xl\u224848px). A bare number is treated as pixels. NEVER pass a raw CSS length such as \`gap="8px"\` \u2014 it is silently dropped by the browser and the gap collapses to 0; use the scale name (\`gap="sm"\`).
 - \`<Grid columns={N} gap="md">\` \u2014 2-D layout (rows AND columns). Reach for it for card galleries, stat grids and dashboards \u2014 NEVER hand-roll \`style={{ display: 'grid' }}\`. When the request names exact per-breakpoint counts ("3 per row on desktop, 1 on mobile"), pass a map: \`<Grid columns={{ base: 1, md: 3 }}>\` (breakpoints \`sm\`/\`md\`/\`lg\`/\`xl\`; the design system emits the media queries). For an open-ended gallery where any column count is fine, use \`<Grid minColumnWidth={220}>\` \u2014 it fits as many equal columns as the width allows. \`radius\` (Card / Box / Image) takes the scale \`none | sm | md | lg | xl\`.
 - \`<Stat label="\u2026" value="\u2026" delta="+12%" trend="up">\` \u2014 KPI display (label + big value + trend-coloured delta + optional \`icon\`). \`trend\` is \`up | down | neutral\` (delta renders green / red / muted). Reach for it for any "show a number" UI; drop several into a \`<Grid>\` for a stat grid instead of hand-building label+value pairs.
 - \`<Stepper steps={STEPS} current={step} />\` \u2014 display-only step indicator for wizards/checkouts. \`steps\` is a top-level \`const\` array of labels; \`current\` is YOUR zero-indexed \`useState\` value; \`orientation\` is \`horizontal | vertical\`; optional \`onStepClick={(i) => \u2026}\` makes steps clickable. Stepper never owns navigation state \u2014 your Next/Back handlers move \`current\`.

 **Color choice rule of thumb.** Reach for typed slots first: Button \`variant\`, Badge \`variant\`, Alert \`variant\`, Text/Heading/Icon/Spinner/Link/Divider \`tone\`, Box/Card \`surface\`.

-## Data Parameterization (CRITICAL)
-
-Generated components are CACHED blueprints reused across requests. NEVER hardcode request-specific data (names, cities, numbers, dates) into the component body. Define data as default prop values so the blueprint works for ANY similar request:
-
-\`\`\`tsx
-// BAD \u2014 hardcoded, only works for Tokyo
-const city = "Tokyo";
-const temp = 18;
-
-// GOOD \u2014 parameterized via props with defaults from the request

-  temperature?: number;
-}
-export default function WeatherCard({ city = "Tokyo", temperature = 18 }: Props) {
-  // A controller can override for Seoul, Paris, etc.
-}
-\`\`\`
-
-Rules:
-1. All request-specific data \u2192 props with defaults. City names, tickers, user names, dates, counts.
-2. Layout and styling are universal. Colors, spacing, structure \u2014 these are the reusable part.
-3. Default values come from the current request \u2014 so the component renders correctly standalone.
-4. Props interface must be typed and exported.
-
-## Component Structure
-
-Keep JSX nesting depth to 3\u20135 levels. When deeper, extract repeated/complex sections into helper components \u2014 named functions defined above the main Component in the same file. Helpers take data + callbacks via props; they don't own state.
