+# Design Token Panel — Portable Contract
+
+This document codifies the public contract that the
+`@takazudo/zdtp` package exposes to its host applications.
+It is the source of truth for the package's portable API surface. Reviewers
+should be able to check off any change to the package against the section
+that pins the surface it touches.
+
+The package extracts every project-specific identifier behind a single
+configure-once init (`configurePanel({...})`) so the same package can ship
+into any Preact-supporting Astro / Vite / Next.js / Rust-SSG consumer. Storage
+keys, console namespace, modal class prefixes, schema id, and the entire tab
+configuration (tiers, items, color cluster extras) are all host-supplied.
+
+---
+
+## 1. `configurePanel({...})` — multi-instance init
+
+The package exposes a setup function that returns a `PanelInstanceHandle`.
+Hosts call it once per `storagePrefix` per page lifecycle, before the panel
+adapter for that instance is dynamically imported (typically from a small Astro
+host script that gates the adapter behind a visibility / persistence probe —
+see §6). The same function supports **multiple independent panel instances** on
+one page: call it with a distinct `storagePrefix` to register a new instance;
+call it with the same prefix and equal config for an idempotent no-op.
+
+```ts
+export interface PanelConfig {
+  /** Base for every derived storage key. Also the instance id. See §2. */
+  storagePrefix: string;
+  /** Console API namespace — installed as `window[consoleNamespace].showDesignPanel`, etc. */

+
+Required behaviours:
+
+- **Multi-instance.** Calling `configurePanel` with a **distinct**
+  `storagePrefix` registers an independent panel instance (no throw). Distinct
+  instances derive independent storage keys, DOM roots, and toggle events and
+  do not interfere with each other.
+- **Idempotent for same prefix+config.** Calling `configurePanel` a second
+  time with the same `storagePrefix` and structurally-equal config values is a
+  no-op and returns the SAME handle. This covers Astro view-transition reruns
+  that re-parse the inline JSON config.
+- **Same-prefix-different-config THROWS (`RECONFIGURE_RULE = 'reject-with-error'`).** Calling
+  `configurePanel` with a `storagePrefix` already in the registry but a
+  structurally-different config throws immediately. To re-configure a prefix,
+  call `handle.destroy()` first, then `configurePanel` again.
+- **Synchronous.** No I/O, no awaits. The call must be cheap enough to run
+  inline at module-init from the Astro frontmatter side.
+- **Pure data only (except `applySink`).** Every field on `PanelConfig` other
+  than `applySink` MUST be JSON-serializable. This is the hard precondition
+  for the Astro frontmatter → island prop handoff (§6): Astro stringifies
+  props, so functions / class instances do not survive. `applySink` carries
+  function references and MUST NOT be included in the Astro JSON config.
+  `domTweaker`, when present, is part of this pure-data surface: it may only
+  contain the optional string `themeCss` field. `themeCss` MUST NOT contain
+  any `@import` occurrence.
+- **No default `PanelConfig` baked into the package.** Hosts MUST configure
+  the panel explicitly via `<DesignTokenPanelHost config={...} />` or a
+  direct `configurePanel({...})` call. The package ships zero baked-in
+  identifiers — every storage prefix, namespace, and manifest entry comes
+  from the host.
+
+### Multi-instance example
+
+```ts
+// Primary panel instance
+const primaryHandle = configurePanel({
+  storagePrefix: 'myapp-design-token-panel',
+  // ...other fields
+});
+
+// Secondary panel instance — distinct prefix, independent instance
+const secondaryHandle = configurePanel({
+  storagePrefix: 'myapp-preview-panel',
+  toggleEvent: 'toggle-preview-panel', // optional; default: toggle-${storagePrefix}
+  // ...other fields
+});
+
+// Each handle controls only its own instance:
+primaryHandle.open();    // opens primary panel
+secondaryHandle.toggle(); // toggles secondary panel
+
+// Listen for the secondary panel's toggle event:
+window.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent('toggle-preview-panel'));
+
+// To re-configure a prefix, destroy first:
+primaryHandle.destroy();
+configurePanel({ storagePrefix: 'myapp-design-token-panel', /* new config */ });
+```
+
+### Per-instance toggle events
+
+| Instance | `storagePrefix` | `toggleEvent` field | Effective toggle event name |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Default (single-panel path) | `'zudo-design-token-panel'` (the historical default) | (ignored) | `toggle-design-token-panel` |
+| Any other | any distinct value | omitted | `toggle-${storagePrefix}` |
+| Any other | any distinct value | supplied | the supplied string |
+
+The default instance keeps the historical `toggle-design-token-panel` event for
+backwards compatibility. Every non-default instance gets its own independent
+channel so two panels on one page do not cross-talk.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Storage-key derivation
+
+`storagePrefix` is the only knob that controls every persisted key. The panel
+derives the keys at runtime from this single base.
+
+| Logical key | Derivation                  | Owner                | Purpose                                                                                                                                                      |
+| ----------- | --------------------------- | -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| `state-v3`  | `${storagePrefix}-state-v3` | tweak-state          | Current unified envelope: tabs map + color + spacing + typography + size + panelPosition. Added `tabs` map for generic host-coined tabs.                     |
+| `state-v2`  | `${storagePrefix}-state-v2` | tweak-state (legacy) | Pre-v3 unified envelope (color + spacing + typography + size + panelPosition). Migrated into `state-v3` on first load, then deleted.                        |
+| `state-v1`  | `${storagePrefix}-state`    | tweak-state (legacy) | Pre-v2 flat-state format (Color-only). Migrated into `state-v3` on first load, then deleted.                                                                |
+| `open`      | `${storagePrefix}-open`     | panel                | Mirror of the panel's `open` boolean state (so the next mount opens directly into the user's last state without a post-render toggle dispatch).              |
+| `position`  | `${storagePrefix}-position` | panel                | Drag position (`{ top, left }`) so the panel reappears where the user left it.                                                                              |
+| `visible`   | `${storagePrefix}:visible`  | adapter              | Adapter-level visibility-intent flag, owned by the lazy-load gate (§6).                                                                                      |
+| `autoload`  | `${storagePrefix}:autoload` | autoload-state       | Owner-mode autoload flag. `'1'` (explicit, set by `enableAutoload()`) or `'auto'` (auto-remembered, set by opening the panel — see §6.2) both mean "load the panel bundle eagerly and mount CLOSED on every page load." `enableAutoload()` / `disableAutoload()` manage the explicit value; `disableAutoload()` clears either. See §6.2. |
+| `domtweaker-enabled` | `${storagePrefix}-domtweaker-enabled` | dom-tweaker-state | DOM Tweaker enabled bit. `'1'` means "mount the closed shell and load the DOM Tweaker lazy boundary." Only meaningful when `PanelConfig.domTweaker` is present. |
+
+**Constraint — colon, not dash, for `visible` and `autoload`.** Both adapter-
+level flags use a `:` separator; every other derived key uses `-`. The colon
+form is a historical artifact for `visible`, preserved for storage-key
+continuity; `autoload` follows the same colon convention to pair with it.
+The derivation MUST emit the colon literally; do not "fix" it during refactors.
+
+**Storage-key derivation is literal.** With `storagePrefix: "myapp-design-token-panel"`,
+the derivation produces:
+
+```
+myapp-design-token-panel-state-v3
+myapp-design-token-panel-state-v2
+myapp-design-token-panel-state
+myapp-design-token-panel-open
+myapp-design-token-panel-position
+myapp-design-token-panel:visible
+myapp-design-token-panel:autoload
+myapp-design-token-panel-domtweaker-enabled
+```
+
+Unit tests in the package verify these derivations with literal-equality
+checks, and the v1 → v3 / v2 → v3 migration paths at first-load are part of
+the test matrix.
+
+### 2.1 Default first-open geometry
+
+When the `position` key (and, likewise, the size key) has no persisted value
+yet, the panel does not fall back to a fixed pixel position. The fallback is
+computed at open time as one coherent rectangle:
+
+- **Size is computed first**, from the historical `min(1200, 0.8·vw) ×
+  min(800, 0.8·vh)` rule clamped to a minimum-size floor and the current
+  viewport. **Position is derived from that same clamped size** — centered
+  in the viewport, then run through a containment clamp so the whole
+  rectangle stays inside `[0, innerWidth]` × `[0, innerHeight]`. Position and
+  size are never computed independently; a host cannot observe a fallback
+  position that assumes a different width than the fallback size.
+- **Full containment is guaranteed at every viewport width**, including
+  phone widths — a first-open panel never spawns with any part off-screen.
+  This holds when the size key IS persisted but the `position` key is not
+  (a resize without a drag): the fallback position is centered and contained
+  against the persisted size, not against the default one.
+- **The fallback is instance-aware.** Each additional panel instance
+  concurrently mounted on the page offsets its own fallback position by 24px
+  on both axes, keyed to mount order with lowest-free-slot reuse (a released
+  slot — e.g. from `destroy()` — is reused by the next instance that mounts,
+  rather than the ordinal growing forever). This exists only to keep
+  simultaneously-opened instances from landing exactly on top of one
+  another; it has no effect once a `position` value is persisted.
+- **A persisted `position` value always wins over the cascade.** The 24px
+  offset applies only to the computed fallback, never to a stored value —
+  once `position` is written, that instance reopens at the exact stored
+  coordinates regardless of how many other instances are mounted.
+- **Containment takes priority over cascade distinctness.** On a viewport
+  with too little spare room, the 24px offset is clamped down toward
+  whatever room is left (potentially to 0) so the panel stays fully
+  contained; it is not the case that both "cascade offset is always applied"
+  and "the panel is always fully contained" hold simultaneously. Each axis
+  degrades on its own: one axis can run out of slack (offset clamped to 0)
+  while the other still applies the full 24px.
+- **Out of scope for this section — the drag-recovery clamp.** Once a panel
+  has been dragged, repositioning is governed by a separate, more permissive
+  clamp that only guarantees a 60px grip of the panel stays on-screen and
+  otherwise allows it to hang off any edge. That clamp is unrelated to this
+  fallback-geometry contract and is unchanged by it.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Tab / tier model contract
+
+The panel is data-driven through a `tabs` array on `PanelConfig`. Every
+visible tab, including the color tab, is expressed as a `TabConfig` entry.
+
+### 3.1 Public interfaces
+
+These shapes are defined in `src/tokens/tier-model.ts` and frozen as the
+public surface:
+
+```ts
+// Value-kind discriminated union — describes how a tier item is edited.
+export type TierValueKind =
+  | { kind: 'length'; step: number; unit: string }
+  | { kind: 'number'; step: number }
+  | { kind: 'select'; options: readonly string[] }
+  | { kind: 'text' }
+  | { kind: 'cursor' }
+  | { kind: 'content' }
+  | { kind: 'mask-image' }
+  | { kind: 'color' };
+
+export interface PillSpec {
+  value: string;
+  customDefault: string;
+}
+
+/** A single editable or reference token within a tier. */
+export interface TierItem {
+  /** Stable id used as the key in persisted state (e.g. `hsp-2xs`). */
+  id: string;
+  /** CSS custom property written to `:root` (e.g. `--myapp-spacing-hgap-2xs`). */
+  cssVar: string;
+  /** Display label shown in the panel row. */
+  label: string;
+  /** Optional manifest group — tab components use this for section headers. */
+  group?: string;
+  /** Default value as a CSS string (`0.125rem`, `12px`, etc.). */
+  default: string;
+  /** Discriminated union describing the control kind and its metadata. */
+  type: TierValueKind;
+  /** Opt-in pill toggle (e.g. for a `--radius-full` 9999px sentinel). */
+  pill?: PillSpec;
+  /** Read-only items are displayed but not editable. */
+  readonly?: true;
+}
+
+/** A named set of tier items that share a value kind. */
+export interface TierConfig {
+  /** Stable id for this tier (e.g. `base`, `scale`, `semantic`). */
+  id: string;
+  /** Display label for the tier heading. */
+  label: string;
+  /** Ordered list of items in this tier. All items MUST share the same kind. */
+  items: readonly TierItem[];
+  /**
+   * When set, this tier's items hold references. Each item's `default` is the
+   * id of an item in the tier whose id matches `referencesTier`. The apply
+   * pipeline emits `var(--target-cssvar)` for ref-tier items at apply time.
+   */
+  referencesTier?: string;
+}
+
+/**
+ * Color-cluster extras — the non-tier fields required for the color tab.
+ * Palette and semantic data move into the tier model as TierItems; ColorClusterExtras
+ * carries the structural metadata (base roles, scheme registry, panel settings).
+ */
+export interface ColorClusterExtras {
+  id: string;
+  label?: string;
+  baseRoles: Partial<Record<BaseRoleKey, string>>;
+  baseDefaults: Partial<Record<BaseRoleKey, number>>;
+  defaultShikiTheme: string;
+  colorSchemes: Record<string, ColorScheme>;
+  panelSettings: ClusterPanelSettings;
+}
+
+/** Top-level tab entry on PanelConfig.tabs. */
+export interface TabConfig {
+  /** Stable id. Reserved ids: 'color' (primary color tab), 'color-secondary'. */
+  id: string;
+  /** Display label rendered on the tab strip. */
+  label: string;
+  /** Ordered list of tiers within this tab. */
+  tiers: readonly TierConfig[];
+  /** Tier ids whose rows are hidden behind an Advanced <details> disclosure. */
+  advancedTiers?: readonly string[];
+  /**
+   * Required on color tabs (id 'color' / 'color-secondary'). Carries the
+   * structural metadata (base roles, scheme registry, panel settings) for the
+   * color tab's palette picker and semantic table. Absent on non-color tabs.
+   */
+  colorExtras?: ColorClusterExtras;
+}
+```
+
+### 3.2 Reserved tab ids
+
+| Tab id             | Meaning                                            |
+| ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------- |
+| `color`            | Primary color tab — palette + base roles + semantics + scheme picker. Requires `colorExtras`. |
+| `color-secondary`  | Secondary color tab (same shape as `color`). Requires `colorExtras`. |
+
+Any other id dispatches to `GenericTab`, which renders the tab's `tiers`
+using kind-appropriate editors.
+
+### 3.3 Validation rules
+
+`assertValidPanelConfig` enforces these structural rules at the host-adapter
+trust boundary:
+
+- `tabs` must be an array.
+- Every tab must have a unique, non-empty `id`.
+- Every tier within a tab must have a unique, non-empty `id`.
+- Every item within a tab must have a unique `id` across all tiers in that tab.
+- Every `item.cssVar` must start with `--` and be non-empty after the prefix.
+- All items within a single tier must share the same `kind` (mixed kinds in a
+  tier are rejected).
+- `referencesTier` must name an existing tier in the same tab, and the
+  referencing tier's kind must match the referenced tier's kind.
+
+### 3.4 Apply behaviour for ref-tier items
+
+When a `TierConfig` carries `referencesTier`, the apply pipeline treats each
+item's persisted value as the id of an item in the referenced tier. The
+emitted CSS override is `var(--target-cssvar)` where `target-cssvar` is the
+`cssVar` of the matched item in the base tier.
+
+By default the write target is `:root` (`document.documentElement`). When a
+`PanelConfig.applySink` is configured for the instance, writes are routed
+through the sink instead — see §3.5.
+
+### 3.5 `applySink` — optional CSS-var write target
+
+When `PanelConfig.applySink` is set, all CSS-var writes and clears for that
+panel instance route through the sink rather than `document.documentElement`.
+This enables embedding the panel in a shadow root, an iframe document, or a
+test spy without touching `:root`.
+
+```ts
+interface ApplySink {
+  /** Upsert the given var name→value pairs on the sink target. */
+  apply(pairs: ReadonlyArray<readonly [string, string]>): void;
+  /** Remove the given var names from the sink target. */
+  clear(names: readonly string[]): void;
+}
+```
+
+Contract:
+
+- `apply(pairs)` — **upsert**: set each `pairs[i][0]` CSS var to
+  `pairs[i][1]` on the sink target.
+- `clear(names)` — **remove**: remove each named CSS var from the sink target.
+- **Reset clears the instance's full token set.** When the user clicks Reset,
+  `sink.clear` receives every var the instance can own (all palette,
+  base-role, semantic, and non-color tab vars) — not just the currently-dirty
+  vars — so the sink target is completely cleaned.
+- **Default (no sink):** writes go to `document.documentElement` (unchanged
+  behaviour for existing integrations).
+- **Sink errors are non-fatal.** The apply pipeline swallows errors from
+  `sink.apply` and `sink.clear` with `console.warn` and continues.
+- **The host owns the sink.** The package calls `apply`/`clear`; it does not
+  manage the sink target's lifecycle. A host that passes a shadow-root target
+  must keep the target alive as long as the panel instance is alive.
+- **Not JSON-serializable.** `applySink` carries function references and
+  MUST NOT be included in the Astro inline JSON config. Supply it via a
+  post-configure approach or a custom adapter that calls `configurePanel`
+  directly after adding the sink field.
+
+Example — routing a panel instance to a shadow root:
+
+```ts
+const shadowHost = document.createElement('div');
+document.body.appendChild(shadowHost);
+const shadow = shadowHost.attachShadow({ mode: 'open' });
+
+const handle = configurePanel({
+  storagePrefix: 'myapp-shadow-panel',
+  // ...other required fields...
+  applySink: {
+    apply(pairs) {
+      for (const [name, value] of pairs) {
+        (shadow.host as HTMLElement).style.setProperty(name, value);
+      }
+    },
+    clear(names) {
+      for (const name of names) {
+        (shadow.host as HTMLElement).style.removeProperty(name);
+      }

+## 4. Color tab contract
+
+The color tab — palette + base roles + semantic table + scheme list — is
+expressed as a `TabConfig` with `id: 'color'` and a `colorExtras` field.
+Palette and semantic tokens are `TierItem` entries inside the tab's `tiers`;
+the `colorExtras` object carries the structural metadata.
+
+### 4.1 `ColorClusterExtras` interface
+
+```ts
+export type BaseRoleKey = 'background' | 'foreground' | 'cursor' | 'selectionBg' | 'selectionFg';
+
+export interface ColorClusterExtras {
+  /** Stable id — used for debugging / logging only. */
+  id: string;
+  /**
+   * Optional human-visible label rendered in the Color tab section headings.
+   * When absent, the tab falls back to `id.toUpperCase()`.
+   */
+  label?: string;
+  /**
+   * Map of base-role name → CSS custom-property name. A cluster MAY declare
+   * a subset (an empty map is legal); only declared roles are written on apply.
+   */
+  baseRoles: Partial<Record<BaseRoleKey, string>>;
+  /**
+   * Fallback palette indices when a scheme omits a base role.
+   */
+  baseDefaults: Partial<Record<BaseRoleKey, number>>;
+  /** Fallback `shikiTheme` when a scheme lacks one. (Inert when no shiki integration.) */
+  defaultShikiTheme: string;
+  /**
+   * Color-scheme registry. Keyed by display name (`"Default Dark"`, etc.).
+   * Pass `{}` for clusters that don't use schemes.
+   */
+  colorSchemes: Record<string, ColorScheme>;
+  /**
+   * Panel-level scheme settings. Drives `getActiveSchemeName` / `initColorFromScheme`.
+   */
+  panelSettings: {
+    /** Scheme name to seed state from when `colorMode` is `false`. */
+    colorScheme: string;
+    /**
+     * Optional light/dark pairing. When set to an object, the panel honours
+     * `document.documentElement[data-theme]` and switches schemes accordingly
+     * on init. Set to `false` to disable the light/dark UI.
+     */
+    colorMode: false | { defaultMode: 'light' | 'dark'; lightScheme: string; darkScheme: string };
+  };
+}
+```
+
+`ColorScheme` shape:
+
+```ts
+export type ColorRef = number | string;
+
+export interface ColorScheme {
+  background: ColorRef;
+  foreground: ColorRef;
+  cursor: ColorRef;
+  selectionBg: ColorRef;
+  selectionFg: ColorRef;
+  palette: readonly string[]; // length must match the palette tier's item count
+  shikiTheme: string;
+  semantic?: Record<string, ColorRef>;
+}
+```
+
+> **Public alias** — the runtime type in `src/config/` is
+> `ColorClusterDataConfig`. `ColorClusterConfig` is re-exported from the
+> package root as the public-facing alias for the same shape:
+> `import type { ColorClusterConfig } from '@takazudo/zdtp'`.
+
+### 4.2 JSON-serializable constraint
+
+**Every field on the color `TabConfig` (including `colorExtras` and every
+`ColorScheme` it nests) MUST be JSON-serializable.** No function fields, no
+class instances, no `Symbol` keys, no `undefined` where `null` is meant. This
+is enforced by the Astro frontmatter → component prop handoff (§6).
+
+Palette CSS-var names are therefore expressed as `TierItem.cssVar` strings, not
+as function templates. Each palette slot is an explicit `TierItem`.
+
+### 4.3 Multi-cluster support
+
+The package supports a primary color cluster and an optional secondary cluster.
+
+| Tab id             | Meaning                                             |
+| ------------------ | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| `color`            | Primary cluster (required for color support).       |
+| `color-secondary`  | Secondary cluster (optional — omit the tab to hide the secondary section). |
+
+Both tabs follow the same render / apply / clear contract, scoped to their
+respective palette and semantic vocabulary.
+
+### 4.4 Host-supplied scheme presets — `colorPresets`
+
+`PanelConfig.colorPresets` is the optional, host-supplied preset map surfaced
+by the Color tab "Scheme..." dropdown. It defaults to `{}` and the package
+itself ships zero presets.
+
+| `colorPresets` value           | Meaning         | Effect                                                                |
+| ------------------------------ | --------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `undefined` (field omitted)    | Default         | Equivalent to `{}` — only `colorExtras.colorSchemes` populates the dropdown. |
+| `{}`                           | Explicit empty  | Same as `undefined`.                                                  |
+| `Record<string, ColorScheme>`  | Host-supplied   | Each key surfaces as a `<option>` below the cluster's bundled schemes. Sorted alphabetically. |
+
+**Merge order in the dropdown:**
+
+```
+<option disabled>Scheme...</option>
+... colorExtras.colorSchemes (insertion order) ...
+<hr />
+... colorPresets (alphabetical) ...
+```
+
+**Key collision** — if a `colorPresets` entry shares a name with one in
+`colorExtras.colorSchemes`, the bundled scheme wins for the
+`handleLoadPreset` lookup.
+
+**Lazy attachment via `setPanelColorPresets()`** — hosts that ship a large
+preset library can omit `colorPresets` from the SSR config blob and call
+`setPanelColorPresets(presets)` from a client-side dynamic import.
+
+### 4.5 Apply behaviour
+
+The apply pipeline for color tabs:
+
+- For each palette `TierItem` in the palette tier, write
+  `item.cssVar` ← `palette[i]` from the active scheme / user override.
+- For each `(roleKey, cssName)` in `colorExtras.baseRoles`, write
+  `cssName` ← `palette[state[roleKey]]`.
+- For each semantic `TierItem`, resolve
+  `state.semanticMappings[key] ?? colorExtras.semanticDefaults[key]`
+  through `resolveMapping` and write `item.cssVar` ← resolved hex.
+- `clearAppliedStyles()` removes every property the cluster could have set.
+
+### 4.6 `applyEndpoint` and `applyRouting`
+
+The Apply modal's button is gated on two `PanelConfig` fields:
+
+| Field          | Type                    | Purpose                                                                 |
+| -------------- | ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `applyEndpoint` | `string`               | URL the Apply button POSTs the flat cssVar diff to.                     |
+| `applyRouting` | `Record<string, string>` | CSS-var prefix family → repo-relative source-file path.                |
+
+When both are set (and the routing map is non-empty), the Apply button is
+enabled. When either is missing, the modal still mounts so the user can
+preview the diff, but the action stays disabled with a tooltip.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Apply pipeline
+
+The **bin server** is the reference implementation for the apply contract.
+
+### 5.1 Request & response envelopes
+
+The Apply button POSTs to `PanelConfig.applyEndpoint` with a flat JSON diff.
+
+**Request**
+
+```
+POST <applyEndpoint>
+Content-Type: application/json
+
+{
+  "tokens": {
+    "--myapp-spacing-md": "2rem",
+    "--myapp-extra-slider-length": "200px"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Response 200 (success)**
+
+```json
+{
+  "ok": true,
+  "updated": [
+    {
+      "file": "src/styles/tokens.css",
+      "changed": ["--myapp-spacing-md"],
+      "unchanged": ["--myapp-spacing-lg"],
+      "unknown": []
+    }
+  ],
+  "unknownCssVars": [],
+  "unchangedCssVars": ["--myapp-spacing-lg"]
+}
+```
+
+**Response 400 (bad request)**
+
+```json
+{
+  "ok": false,
+  "error": "<message>",
+  "rejected"?: ["--invalid-token"]
+}
+```
+
+Returned for: malformed JSON, missing `tokens` field, empty tokens map,
+invalid token names (no `--` prefix, spaces, slashes), unsupported CSS-var
+prefix, path escape attempts.
+
+**Response 403 (Forbidden)**
+
+```json
+{ "ok": false, "error": "Origin not allowed" }
+```
+
+**Response 405 (Method not allowed)**
+
+Empty body, `Allow: POST, OPTIONS` header.
+
+**Response 409 (Conflict)**
+
+```json
+{ "ok": false, "error": "No top-level :root { ... } block in <file>" }
+```
+
+**Response 500 (Internal server error)**
+
+```json
+{
+  "ok": false,
+  "error": "<message>",
+  "failedFile"?: "<relativePath>",
+  "restoreFailures"?: ["<file1>", "<file2>"]
+}
+```
+
+### 5.2 Reference implementation
+
+The bin server (`src/bin/server.ts`) is the reference for this contract. It
+reads `--routing <json>` at startup and exposes a Fetch API handler
+(`createApplyHandler` from `src/server/create-apply-handler.ts`). Read the
+handler source as the spec.
+
+### 5.3 Implementing the contract natively (advanced)
+
+Hosts physically unable to spawn Node.js must:
+
+1. Validate token names — reject names without `--` prefix, with spaces or slashes.
+2. Sanitize and route — split each CSS-var prefix, look up the target file in
+   the routing map, reject prefixes not in the map.
+3. Path safety — resolve each target path to an absolute path, verify it sits
+   within `writeRoot`, reject path-escape attempts.
+4. Read & parse — load each CSS file, find the `:root { ... }` block (fail
+   409 if missing), parse the existing variable values.
+5. Compute rewrite — compute `changed` / `unchanged` / `unknown`, build the
+   updated `:root` block.
+6. Atomic write — keep the original file content in memory. Write updated
+   content to a temp file. Atomically rename temp to target. If any write
+   fails, restore every previously-written file.
+7. Respond — return the exact JSON envelope shapes pinned in §5.1.
+
+### 5.4 Routing config — single source of truth
+
+Both the **panel UI** (`PanelConfig.applyRouting`) and the **bin** (`--routing`
+flag) read the same JSON file. The map is keyed by the CSS-var prefix family
+(without leading `--` and trailing `-`); the value is a repo-relative path to
+the source file the bin rewrites.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Astro export contract
+
+The package exposes a second entry point, `./astro`, for Astro projects.
+
+```astro
+---
+import DesignTokenPanelHost from '@takazudo/zdtp/astro/DesignTokenPanelHost.astro';
+import { panelConfig } from '~/lib/design-token-panel-config';
+---
+
+<DesignTokenPanelHost config={panelConfig} />
+```
+
+### 6.1 Component prop
+
+The component accepts the full `PanelConfig` from §1 as its `config` prop.
+Astro frontmatter passes the value at SSR time; the adapter serialises it into
+the rendered island and reads it back at runtime to call `configurePanel(config)`.
+
+This is the reason the JSON-serializable constraint in §4.2 is non-negotiable.
+
+### 6.2 Lazy-load gate
+
+The host adapter fires one eager `loadPanelModule()` call when any of the
+following signals is present in `localStorage` at page load:
+
+```ts
+if (
+  wasVisible(visibleKey)  ||   // panel was open last visit (`:visible`)
+  wasVisible(openKey)     ||   // same, via the `-open` mirror
+  hasPersistedOverrides() ||   // user has saved token tweaks
+  shouldAutoload()        ||   // owner-autoload flag set ('1' or 'auto')
+  loadElementPathEnabled() ||   // element-path inspector enabled
+  loadDomTweakerEnabled()      // DOM Tweaker enabled and configured
+) {
+  void loadPanelModule();
+}
+```
+
+- `wasVisible()` — reads `${storagePrefix}:visible` (colon-form key, §2), and
+  is applied a second time to the `${storagePrefix}-open` mirror (dash-form,
+  §2) that `panel.tsx` writes alongside it. Either key holding `'1'` means the
+  panel was open before the last navigation.
+- `hasPersistedOverrides()` — scans every `localStorage` key matching the
+  `${storagePrefix}-state` family (dash-form, §2: `-state` (v1) through every
+  `-state-vN`) and returns `true` when at least one holds a non-empty envelope
+  (malformed JSON also counts as `true` — fail open, so the panel loads and
+  can migrate or reject the payload rather than stranding the user with data
+  it can never see). This is a **content check**, not a presence check on a
+  specific version key — an empty `{}` / `[]` / `null` / `''` does NOT trigger
+  it. (zdtp itself never writes such a value: `clearPersistedState()` removes
+  the `-state` keys outright, so this guard only covers envelopes written by
+  hand or by another tool.) Overrides MUST be re-applied to `:root` even when
+  the panel stays hidden, otherwise hard-nav produces a FOUT.
+- `shouldAutoload()` — reads `${storagePrefix}:autoload` (colon-form, §2).
+  Returns `true` when the flag is `'1'` (explicit, written by `enableAutoload()`)
+  OR `'auto'` (auto-remembered, written by opening the panel — see "Auto-remember
+  on open" below). This is the owner-mode signal: the panel bundle fetches
+  eagerly and mounts CLOSED so the element-path inspector is armed even though
+  the panel UI is hidden. General visitors (no flag, or `'0'`) pay zero bundle
+  cost. A downstream host that wants to distinguish the two populations can
+  test `=== '1'` directly — see "Auto-remember on open" for the caveat.
+- `loadElementPathEnabled()` — reads the element-path inspector's persistence
+  key. Returns `true` when the inspector was left enabled. Ensures the Preact
+  shell is mounted (the inspector runs inside it) even when the panel UI is
+  hidden and no token overrides are persisted.
+- `loadDomTweakerEnabled()` — reads the DOM Tweaker persistence key. Returns
+  `true` when `PanelConfig.domTweaker` is present and the tweaker was left
+  enabled. Ensures the Preact shell is mounted and the lazy boundary is
+  imported even when the panel UI is hidden.
+
+When none of the five signals is present — the common case for first-time
+visitors and general site visitors on a public site with owner-autoload — the
+panel bundle is NOT fetched and the page is completely free of panel JS.
+
+#### Storage-key table for §6.2 signals
+
+| Signal | Key derivation | Owner |
+|--------|---------------|-------|
+| `wasVisible` | `${storagePrefix}:visible`, OR its `${storagePrefix}-open` mirror | adapter |
+| `hasPersistedOverrides` | Content check across the `${storagePrefix}-state` family (`-state`, `-state-v2`, `-state-v3`, ... — every version, not a fixed list) | tweak-state |
+| `shouldAutoload` | `${storagePrefix}:autoload`, matching `'1'` or `'auto'` | autoload-state |
+| `loadElementPathEnabled` | `${storagePrefix}-elpath-enabled` | element-path-state |
+| `loadDomTweakerEnabled` | `${storagePrefix}-domtweaker-enabled` | dom-tweaker-state |
+
+#### DOM Tweaker config and runtime invariants
+
+- `PanelConfig.domTweaker` is disabled by omission. When absent, the header
+  toggle is hidden and the persisted `-domtweaker-enabled` key is ignored by
+  the lazy-load gate.
+- `PanelConfig.domTweaker` is a plain JSON object. The only supported field is
+  `themeCss?: string`; unknown fields, functions, non-string `themeCss`, and
+  any `@import` occurrence in `themeCss` are rejected by
+  `assertValidPanelConfig`.
+- The eager side passes `storagePrefix`, `themeCss`, and `consoleNamespace`
+  explicitly into the lazy DOM Tweaker boundary. The lazy boundary MUST NOT
+  read module-global `PanelConfig`.
+- The DOM Tweaker runtime/bridge/portal are document-global. At most one panel
+  instance can have DOM Tweaker active in a document. First activation wins;
+  a second instance's toggle is inert and emits a `console.warn` tagged with
+  that second instance's `consoleNamespace`.
+
+#### Owner-autoload `enableAutoload` / `disableAutoload` contract
+
+`enableAutoload()` (exported from the package root; also wired on
+`window[consoleNamespace]` by the Astro host adapter):
+
+1. Sets `${storagePrefix}:autoload = '1'`.
+2. Sets `${storagePrefix}-elpath-enabled = '1'` once (arms the Alt+click
+   element-path inspector).
+3. Loads the panel bundle (if not already loaded).
+4. Mounts the Preact shell CLOSED so the element-path inspector is active
+   without opening the panel UI.
+
+`disableAutoload()`:
+
+1. Clears `${storagePrefix}:autoload` (removes the key).
+2. Sets `${storagePrefix}:visible` to `'0'`.
+3. Sets `${storagePrefix}-elpath-enabled` to `'0'`.
+4. Removes the open-state key (`${storagePrefix}-open`).
+5. Unmounts the Preact shell (drives effect cleanups, removes root).
+
+#### Auto-remember on open
+
+Any action that shows the panel (`showDesignPanel()`, `toggleDesignPanel()`,
+or the panel's header button) MUST also write
+`${storagePrefix}:autoload = 'auto'` (auto-remembered provenance, distinct
+from the `'1'` that `enableAutoload()` writes) — implemented by
+`rememberAutoload()`. This ensures that once the owner has opened the panel
+on any page, subsequent visits to the same site reload it automatically
+without a second explicit `enableAutoload()` call. An existing explicit `'1'`
+is never downgraded to `'auto'` by this path.
+
+`rememberAutoload()` no-ops when `PanelConfig.autoRememberOnOpen === false`
+(default `true`) — see the `PanelConfig` interface in §1. This lets a host
+serve a visible "open panel" trigger to every visitor without arming
+owner-mode for whoever clicks it; `enableAutoload()`'s explicit `'1'` write
+is unaffected by this setting either way.
+
+**Consequence for public-site owners:** any open trigger (a visible button, a
+keyboard shortcut, etc.) becomes a de-facto owner-mode opt-in for anyone who
+uses it, unless `autoRememberOnOpen` is set to `false`. Gate or omit such
+triggers on public sites, rely on the console `enableAutoload()` call as the
+owner's deliberate opt-in, or set `autoRememberOnOpen: false` if the site
+wants the trigger visible to everyone.
+
+**Legacy caveat.** A downstream host that reads `:autoload` directly and
+tests `=== '1'` to identify only explicit owners will NOT retroactively shed
+browsers that auto-remembered before this provenance split shipped — those
+already hold `'1'`, and that provenance was never recorded, so it cannot be
+reclassified. The `=== '1'` discrimination applies only to opens made from
+this version onward.
+
+### 6.3 Astro view-transition lifecycle
+
+The adapter's existing `astro:before-swap` and `astro:page-load` listeners
+stay. They are Astro-specific and only register when `document` is available:
+
+- `astro:before-swap` → unmount the Preact tree, remove the host node, snapshot/restore visibility intent.
+- `astro:page-load` → re-apply persisted overrides + re-materialise the shell when any of the four gate signals (§6.2) is true.
+
+### 6.4 Console API
+
+```ts
+window[consoleNamespace].showDesignPanel   = () => Promise<void>;
+window[consoleNamespace].hideDesignPanel   = () => Promise<void>;
+window[consoleNamespace].toggleDesignPanel = () => Promise<void>;
+window[consoleNamespace].enableAutoload    = () => Promise<void>;  // owner-autoload opt-in
+window[consoleNamespace].disableAutoload   = () => Promise<void>;  // owner-autoload teardown
+```
+
+### 6.5 Fixed-name global open API (`window.zdtp`)
+
+`consoleNamespace` above is a REQUIRED host-chosen field — every consumer
+historically had to know its own namespace before it could open the panel
+from the console. `window.zdtp` is an ADDITIVE, fixed-name alias for the
+three open/close verbs, so `zdtp.show()` works in the console of any page
+that runs this package, without looking up the host's namespace first:
+
+```ts
+window.zdtp.show   = () => void | Promise<void>;  // open the panel
+window.zdtp.hide   = () => void | Promise<void>;  // close the panel
+window.zdtp.toggle = () => void | Promise<void>;  // toggle the panel
+```
+
+- **Scope: `show` / `hide` / `toggle` only.** `enableAutoload()` /
+  `disableAutoload()` stay on `window[consoleNamespace].*` (§6.4) and the
+  package-root exports (README.md §10) — there is no
+  `window.zdtp.enableAutoload`.
+- **`window[consoleNamespace].*` is unaffected.** It stays fully intact as
+  the multi-tenant, per-namespace API; `window.zdtp` is sugar for the common
+  single-panel case layered on top, not a replacement.
+- **Targets the default instance — with one install-site nuance.** On a
+  non-Astro host, `window.zdtp.*` wraps the package-root
+  `showDesignTokenPanel()` / `hideDesignTokenPanel()` / `toggleDesignPanel()`
+  exports, which re-resolve `getPanelConfig()` (the current default instance)
+  on every call — so it always tracks whichever instance is CURRENTLY the
+  default, even if that changes after install. On an Astro host, the adapter
+  binds `window.zdtp.*` to the specific `PanelInstanceHandle` captured at
+  install time (whichever instance's adapter script installs the alias
+  first — see the next point); it does NOT re-resolve the default on each
+  call, so on a page with more than one `<DesignTokenPanelHost>` instance the
+  alias keeps targeting that first instance even after a later-configured
+  instance becomes the registry's default. Either way, on a multi-instance
+  page use `configurePanel(cfg)`'s returned handle (`handle.open()` /
+  `.close()` / `.toggle()`) to target a SPECIFIC instance unambiguously.
+- **Install sites and timing.** Two independent call sites install this
+  alias, both routing through one shared installer so neither clobbers the
+  other:
+  - The package-root module (`index.tsx`) installs a synchronous alias at
+    its own module-init bootstrap — covers non-Astro hosts that import the
+    package directly.
+  - The Astro host adapter installs an async-wrapped alias eagerly from its
+    own `<script>` bootstrap, alongside `installConsoleApi` (§6.4) — so
+    `zdtp.show()` is callable in the console BEFORE the panel bundle itself
+    has loaded. Each wrapper lazily imports the panel module (the same gate
+    the console API uses) on first call, then drives the captured instance
+    handle.
+  - In the Astro flow the adapter's bootstrap script always runs before the
+    panel module's lazy dynamic import can resolve, so the adapter's alias
+    always installs first ("first install wins" — see the next point). The
+    package-root install site is therefore reached only by non-Astro hosts.
+- **Never clobbers a host-defined `window.zdtp`.** If `window.zdtp` already
+  exists and was not installed by this package, the install is skipped with
+  a `console.warn` — the host's own global is left untouched. (This also
+  covers the edge case of a host that picks `consoleNamespace: 'zdtp'`: the
+  namespace object installed at §6.4 is not this package's alias marker, so
+  the second install site treats it as host-owned and skips.)
+- **Auto-remember carries over for free.** `zdtp.show()` routes through the
+  same `showDesignTokenPanel()` / `handle.open()` core as every other open
+  path, so it arms `${storagePrefix}:autoload = 'auto'` exactly like
+  `showDesignPanel()` (§6.2) — no separate wiring needed, and it is subject
+  to the same `autoRememberOnOpen: false` gate.
+
+---
+
+## 7. CSS contract
+
+### 7.1 Panel-private namespace
+
+The panel ships its own bundled CSS. All panel-chrome variables use the
+`--tokentweak-*` prefix, scoped to the panel shell + modal class prefix:
+
+```css
+:where(.tokenpanel-shell, [data-design-token-panel-modal]) {
+  --tokentweak-pad-md: …;
+  --tokentweak-gap-sm: …;
+  --tokentweak-color-fg: #b8b8b8;
+  /* …every panel-chrome value lives here */
+}
+```
+
+- **No Tailwind dependency.** The package builds and runs without Tailwind in
+  the consumer.
+- **Consumer import required.** The `./styles` sub-export must be imported
+  exactly once from the consumer's static module graph:
+
+  ```ts
+  import '@takazudo/zdtp/styles';
+  ```
+
+### 7.2 Consumer's editable tokens
+
+The tokens the panel writes to (the `cssVar` field on each `TierItem`) are
+entirely consumer-controlled. The package just writes them through `setProperty`
+on `:root`.
+
+- **Read:** the panel never reads consumer CSS variables (it carries its own
+  defaults via `TierItem.default`).
+- **Write:** the panel only writes the consumer-supplied `cssVar` strings.
+
+### 7.3 Modal class prefix + `data-design-token-panel-modal`
+
+`PanelConfig.modalClassPrefix` controls the BEM root for every modal the
+panel owns. **The bundled CSS keys on the data attribute, NOT on the class
+prefix.** Every modal `<dialog>` element emits
+`data-design-token-panel-modal=""`. `panel.css` anchors all modal chrome
+rules on `[data-design-token-panel-modal]`.
+
+### 7.4 Self-contained panel chrome palette (no host theme reads)
+
+The panel-chrome color tokens are declared in `panel-tokens.css` as
+concrete dark-palette values so the panel paints as a neutral dark surface
+regardless of what the host's `--color-*` tokens resolve to:
+
+```css

+
+The panel deliberately does NOT read host `--color-*` / `--font-mono`
+tokens. The panel is a developer tool that ships inside a host page; a
+host theme change — including theme tweaks driven through this very panel
+in a demo — MUST NOT bleed into the panel chrome.
+
+**Override surface for hosts:** a host that wants to retheme the panel
+chrome assigns directly to the `--tokentweak-color-*` /
+`--tokentweak-font-mono` names on `.tokenpanel-shell`,
+`[data-design-token-panel-modal]`, or any ancestor (`:where()` keeps
+specificity at 0). This single name layer is the entire host-override
+contract for panel chrome — `--color-*` reads are not part of it.
+
+**Invariant:** the panel package MUST NOT read `--color-*` or
+`--font-mono` anywhere. Both `panel.css` and `panel-tokens.css` are pinned
+by acceptance grep:
+
+```bash
+grep -n 'var(--color-' src/styles/panel.css        # → 0
+grep -n 'var(--font-mono' src/styles/panel.css     # → 0
+grep -n 'var(--color-' src/styles/panel-tokens.css # → 0
+grep -n 'var(--font-mono' src/styles/panel-tokens.css # → 0
+```
+
+### 7.5 Host-adapter side-effect import (paired-unit obligation)
+
+Alongside the `./styles` import, the consumer MUST own a side-effect import
+for the host-adapter, paired with `<DesignTokenPanelHost>`:
+
+```astro
+<DesignTokenPanelHost config={myPanelConfig} />
+
+<script>
+  void import('@takazudo/zdtp/astro/host-adapter');
+</script>
+```
+
+---
+
+## 8. Storage-key continuity & migration paths
+
+### 8.1 No default `PanelConfig`
+
+The package ships **zero** baked-in identifiers. The host MUST configure the
+panel explicitly. A package import without an explicit configure-call surfaces
+a clear runtime error.
+
+### 8.2 Storage-key derivation is literal
+
+For any host's chosen `storagePrefix`, the derivation produces deterministic,
+literal-equal storage keys (see §2). Unit tests pin the derived keys to
+literal strings.
+
+### 8.3 v1 / v2 → v3 in-place migration
+
+On first load, `loadPersistedState` migrates forward through the chain:
+
+| Source key              | Target key               | Action after migration |
+| ----------------------- | ------------------------ | ---------------------- |
+| `${storagePrefix}-state` (v1)    | `${storagePrefix}-state-v3` | v1 key deleted |
+| `${storagePrefix}-state-v2` (v2) | `${storagePrefix}-state-v3` | v2 key deleted |
+
+A user who last opened the panel before v3 landed gets their old color/spacing
+tweaks lifted into the new envelope on first load.
+
+The v3 envelope adds a `tabs` map alongside the existing per-category slices:
+
+```ts
+// Simplified v3 localStorage envelope shape
+{
+  // legacy category slices — preserved for round-trip compatibility
+  color:      { ... },
+  spacing:    { ... },
+  typography: { ... },
+  size:       { ... },
+  // v3 extension — generic tab overrides keyed by tab id
+  tabs: {
+    "my-custom-tab": { "item-id-1": "some-value", ... },
+    ...
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 8.4 Typography-id rename map
+
+The optional `PanelConfig.legacyIdRenameMap` (`Record<string, string | null>`)
+enables host-controlled id rename / drop during `loadPersistedState` migration.
+`null` drops the id entirely. The default is an empty map (no renaming).
+
+The historical zdtp-internal map is exported as `ZDTP_LEGACY_TYPOGRAPHY_RENAME_MAP`.
+
+---
+
+## 9. JSON export / import schema (serde v2)
+
+### 9.1 Schema versioning
+
+| `$schema` value         | Status  | Structure                                              |
+| ----------------------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
+| `zudo-design-tokens/v1` | Legacy  | Flat top-level `color`/`spacing`/`typography`/`size` keys |
+| `zudo-design-tokens/v2` | Current | `tabs` wrapper keyed by tab id; cssVar-keyed leaves    |
+
+`serialize()` always emits v2. `deserialize()` accepts both v1 and v2 and
+normalises to an internal `TweakState`.
+
+### 9.2 v2 format
+
+```jsonc
+{
+  "$schema": "zudo-design-tokens/v2",
+  "exportedAt": "2026-01-01T00:00:00.000Z",
+  "tabs": {
+    "spacing": {
+      "raw": { "--myapp-spacing-md": "1.25rem" }
+    },
+    "font": {
+      "raw":      { "--myapp-scale-base": "1rem" },
+      "semantic": { "--myapp-text-base": "var(--myapp-scale-base)" }
+    },
+    "color": {
+      "palette":  { "--myapp-palette-1": "#2d6cdf" },
+      "semantic": { "--myapp-color-primary": 1 }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Key decisions:
+
+- **cssVar-keyed leaves** — portable across host id renames.
+- **Tier-2 ref values** stored as the literal `var(--tier1-cssvar)` CSS string
+  (no discriminated union — keeps the format flat and hand-editable).
+- **Color `semantic` values** are palette-index integers (preserved from v1 so
+  the swatch UI can render the resolved color).
+
+### 9.3 Diff-only by default
+
+`serialize()` only emits tokens the user has changed relative to manifest
+defaults. Pass `includeDefaults: true` to dump the full state. A tab key is
+omitted entirely when nothing in it differs.
+
+---
+
+## 10. Out-of-scope (deferred)
+
+Items this contract deliberately does NOT pin down:
+
+- **Persist envelope internal shape** — frozen at the current shape so
+  existing user state round-trips without migration.
+- **Schema id versioning.** `schemaId` is a configure-time string; bumping
+  it is the host's responsibility.
+- **Shadow-DOM scoping.** The panel writes to `:root` by default; hosts
+  that need scoped writes use `PanelConfig.applySink` (§3.5). The sink
+  target's lifecycle is owned by the host — not pinned here.
+- **Theme-API surface.** The panel does not expose a programmatic API for
+  reading the current overrides outside the persist envelope.
