 # BbSelectPopover
 
-## Template & Script
+## Agent Contract
+
+- Safety level: **Consumer API**
+- Group: **Selection**
+- Description: Provides popover-driven option selection and search.
+- Usage rule: Prefer this component for consumer-facing implementations.
+- Implementation source (only when the contract below is not enough): [source/BbSelectPopover.md](./source/BbSelectPopover.md)
+
+## Usage & Guidelines
+
+### When to use
+
+`BbSelectPopover` is `BbSelect` with the inline form input removed: **you own the
+trigger**, it owns search, filtering, keyboard navigation, single/multiple
+selection and the virtualized options list. Reach for it when the control that
+opens the picker is _not_ a form field — a status pill, an avatar stack, a role
+badge, a toolbar button, a table-cell chip. It is the right tool for
+command-palette and inline-edit patterns.
+
+Prefer a sibling when the shape is different:
+
+- You want a **labelled, bordered form control** with hint/error/description
+  states → `BbSelect` (`./BbSelect.md`). That is a field, not a trigger.
+- A small, always-visible exclusive choice → `BbRadioGroup`; small static
+  multi-choice → `BbCheckboxGroup` / `BbSwitchGroup`.
+- Values the user _invents_ → `BbTag`; a known-but-growable set →
+  `BbSelectPopover` (or `BbSelect`) with `option:add`.
+
+Everything from the **Options and Items** and **Fetch Items** playbooks carries
+over unchanged — this component shares `BbSelect`'s option engine. This guide
+covers what is _specific_ to the popover: the activator, and the traps of
+driving a trigger you render yourself.
+
+### Map options with `item-text` / `item-value`
+
+Pass your domain objects to `items` as they are and name the display/value
+fields with `item-text` / `item-value` (dot-paths or extractor functions). The
+`v-model` holds the resolved **value**, not the whole object. The value-identity
+rules are the shared ones (see the Options and Items playbook), in brief:
+
+- Primitive `items` (`string[]` / `number[]`) need no mapping props; for object
+  items always set both.
+- Matching compares **value hashes** (deep structural equality), so object
+  values survive refetches — but prefer stable primitive ids.
+- Options resolving to a **duplicate value are silently dropped** (first wins).
+- Gate individual options with `selectable` — a boolean (`false` disables every
+  option) or a predicate `(item) => boolean`; rejected options render disabled
+  and keyboard navigation skips them. A `disabled` field on the item object is
+  inert domain data — feed it to the predicate
+  (`:selectable="(item) => !item.disabled"`) if it encodes availability.
+
+### Wire up an activator
+
+Provide the trigger through the `#activator` slot and **spread its `props` onto
+your element** with `v-bind="props"` — that wires the popover reference and the
+open/close handlers. The full slot scope:
+
+- `props` — spread onto the focusable trigger element.
+- `shown` — is the popover open (reflect it visually).
+- `toggle` / `open` / `close` — imperative open-state control (all async).
+- `clear` — empty the selection (and query).
+- `focus` — focus the search field (or the listbox when writing is disabled).
+- `query` — the current search string.
+- `selectedOptions` — the resolved selected options (`.text` / `.value` /
+  `.item`) — **popover state** (see below).
+- `text` — display text of the current selection — **popover state** (see below).
+- `disabled` / `readonly` / `loading` — state mirrors for styling the trigger.
+
+**The trigger must not depend on the popover's state — label it from your own
+data.** The popover is an _optional_ editing affordance: it may never be opened,
+and whether it has been opened must never change how the trigger reads. `text`
+and `selectedOptions` resolve the model against **loaded options**, so with a
+provider they stay empty until that provider first runs — by default, the first
+open. A trigger fed from them renders blank and then flickers into truth; a
+trigger fed from your own data is correct on first paint and stays that way.
+
+The robust pattern — used in the example — is a `computed` that resolves the
+label from the model against your own data:
+
+```ts
+const assigneeLabel = computed(
+	() => people.find((p) => p.id === assignee.value)?.name ?? 'Unassigned'
+);
+```
+
+(Array `items` do resolve on mount, so `text` is populated from the first paint
+there — but keep labelling from your own data anyway: it is the same amount of
+code, and it does not change meaning the day the array becomes a provider.)
+

+- `prefill === false` means exactly one thing: **the user typed** — search then.
+- Every component-initiated call (first load, dependency change, model change)
+  passes `prefill === true` and expects the current selection to stay resolvable

+  label and chips accurate.
+- `modelValue` is your v-model as-is; the prop types it `any` — an array in

+### Laziness, prefill and the trigger label
+
+`prefill` controls **when the first load happens**: `'interaction'` (default) on
+first open, `true` immediately on mount (and during SSR via `onServerPrefetch`),
+`false` **search-first** — nothing is fetched until the user types a query.
+Opening the panel is not a search, so it loads nothing; until the first query the
+list shows a _"search to begin"_ hint instead of "no data".
+
+Reach for `false` when the result set is too large or too expensive to browse and
+the query is the only sensible entry point — a user picker over thousands of
+rows. Note the panel is deliberately empty on open: that is the mode telling the
+user to type.
+
+**Search-first needs both a way to search and something to defer**, so `false`
+falls back to loading on open when either is missing:
+
+- **Writing is disabled** (`disable-writing`, including the per-surface
+  `'mobile'`/`'desktop'` forms) — there is no search field, so a user could never
+  trigger the load and the panel would stay empty forever.
+- **The model is non-empty** — its text has to resolve for the selection to
+  render. (In-field `BbSelect` upgrades this to a mount prefill; see below.)
+
+**Two further cases ignore `prefill` entirely and always load**, because deferring
+would buy nothing or break a promise you made:
+
+- **`items` is an array.** There is no request to defer, so laziness would only
+  leave the selection unresolved. Options resolve on mount, whatever `prefill`
+  says — free, and it makes `text`/`selectedOptions` and coherence work from the
+  first paint.
+- **`enforce-coherence` over a non-empty model.** Validating a value is
+  impossible without options, so the popover loads and checks on that first load.
+  An empty model stays lazy — empty is always coherent, so there is nothing to
+  check.
+
+Outside those two, a standalone popover with a **provider does not** auto-upgrade
+a seeded model to an eager prefill the way in-field `BbSelect` does. That
+laziness is deliberate: a fetch per instance must be something you ask for (see
+_One popover per table row_).
+
+**Do not reach for `prefill: true` to fix a trigger label.** Resolve the label
+from your own state instead (above) — a trigger that needs a fetch to render is
+a trigger that renders wrong until the fetch lands.
+
+### Dependent fields and coherence
+
+When one picker constrains another, list the upstream value in `dependencies`:
+the provider re-runs whenever a dependency changes (value-hash compared, so array
+identity churn doesn't refetch), debounced by `deps-debounce-time`. Add
+`enforce-coherence` to auto-clean a now-invalid selection — multiple emits the
+**filtered array**, single emits **`null`**, an already-empty selection stays
+quiet. Because enforcement checks the merged result (fetched + stashed), a
+provider that returns `[]` on a `prefill: true` call **wipes a valid selection** —
+always resolve the current selection on component-initiated calls, or enable
+`stash`. The full mechanics are in the Coherence playbook.
+
+**You do not need `prefill: true` to make this work.** Asking for
+`enforce-coherence` over a seeded model _is_ a request to validate it, and that
+is impossible without options — so the popover loads on mount by itself and runs
+the check on that first load. The filter bar below relies on exactly that: no
+`prefill` prop anywhere, yet switching the project re-runs the milestone provider
+and clears a milestone the new project lacks, while a still-valid one survives.
+
+What that costs is honest and worth knowing: **`enforce-coherence` opts each
+instance into its own load**. One filter, one request. Fifty rows with a provider
+each, fifty requests. That is the trade you asked for by enabling it — and it is
+the reason the table pattern below hands every row the _same array_ instead.
+
+#### Never share one ref across instances
+
+Independent popovers each with their own model and their own `enforce-coherence`
+are fine: every instance judges **its own** value against **its own** options, so
+they never interfere. What breaks is binding them all to **one** ref:
 
-const onEnter = async () => {
-	if (!canProcessKeyboardBindings.value) {
-		return;
-	}
-	if (!shown.value) {
-		await open({ focusPopoverContent: false });
-		await waitForOptionsContainer();

-		if (selectedOptions.value.length) {
-			focusFirstSelectedOption();
-		} else if (computedAllowWriting.value) {
-			focusSearchInput();
-		} else {
-			focusPopoverFocusProxy();
-		}
-		return;
-	} else if (optionsContainer.value?.getHighlighted()) {
-		optionsContainer.value.confirmOption();
-		return;
-	}
-	if (!computedAllowWriting.value) return;
-	const text = query.value.trim();
-	if (isItemSelected(text)) return;
-	emit('option:add', text);
-	query.value = '';
-};
+```vue
+<!-- WRONG: every row writes the same value -->
+<script setup>
+const status = ref(null); // ← one ref, shared by every row
+</script>
+<BbSelectPopover v-for="row in rows" v-model="status" enforce-coherence … />
+```
 
-const onEscape = async () => {
-	if (shown.value) {
-		await close();
-		focusActivator();
-	}
-};
+Now every instance judges **the same** value against **its own** options, and
+coherence's answer to a value it doesn't recognise is `null`. Pick a value only
+one row's options contain and the others each emit `null` in turn — measured with
+5 rows: the pick lands, four instances overwrite it, the model ends `null`. The
+user watches their choice vanish, with nothing logged.

+**Why this shape and not the obvious one.** The instinct is to give each row a
+provider and `enforce-coherence` so rows keep themselves honest. That inverts the
+cost: coherence with a seeded model makes every row load, so the table's request
+count tracks its row count, and each row can rewrite its own model from a
+response you never see. The page-level array collapses all of it — one source,
+one fetch, every row consistent by construction, nothing to prune because every
+row already draws from the same list.
+
+If rows genuinely need **different** option sets (per-type statuses, say),
+resolve _those_ lists at page level too — one fetch per distinct set, keyed by
+type — and pass the right array down. Still zero per-row requests. Reach for a
+per-row provider only when the options truly depend on that row's identity and
+cannot be batched, and then expect the request count to follow the row count.
+
+Pruning stale values in a table is a **page-level** job, not a per-row one: when
+the source list narrows, reconcile the rows yourself in one pass, where you can
+show the user what changed (or ask them) instead of nulling values invisibly.
+
+### Create options on the fly (`option:add`)
+
+Pressing Enter in the search field with **no option highlighted** emits
+`option:add` with the trimmed query (it can be `''`, and it won't fire if the
+query already matches a selected option). The component creates nothing itself:
+append the new item to `items` and select it. This is the idiomatic pattern for
+closed-but-growable vocabularies — the same as `BbSelect`. The behaviour is gated
+by the search field existing; `disable-writing` (which removes the field) also
+disables it.

+
+### Sizing and layout
+
+- `width` sets the popover width — a number (px), a CSS string (`'240px'`,
+  `'100%'`), or `'auto'`. Unlike `BbSelect` (whose panel always matches the
+  control), here the trigger and panel are independent, so size the panel
+  explicitly.
+- `compact` applies the dense density variant (32px options, 24px group headers).
+- `item-height` / `header-height` tune the virtualized row heights when you use
+  taller custom `#option` / `#group` markup.
+- Placement props mirror the palette/dropdown float: `placement`, `offset`
+  (default 4), `padding`, `boundary`, `disable-flip`, `transition-duration`. The
+  panel is a frame, not a bubble — it never shows an arrow.
+
+### Adaptive mobile sheet
+
+With `adaptive` (default: global `config.adaptive`, which is `true`), the panel
+opens as a bottom off-canvas sheet on mobile viewports (below
+`config.mobileMaxWidth`) instead of a floating popover — same search, options and
+`#header`/`#footer` slots, plus a representation of the current selection between
+them. The surface is **latched per open cycle**: a mid-open resize never swaps
+popover ↔ sheet. `off-canvas-props` forwards extra `BbOffCanvas` props to the
+sheet (`size`, `draggable`, `fullscreen`, `stack`); `:adaptive="false"` keeps a
+floating popover everywhere.
+
+### Events and v-model
+
+- `update:modelValue` — the resolved value (single) or array (multiple), on pick,
+  `clear`, coherence enforcement, and — in `multiple` mode only — deselect.
+  A second click on the current option in single mode emits nothing.
+- `option:add` — Enter on a non-matching query with nothing highlighted (above).
+- `focus` / `blur` — the activator gaining/losing focus.
+- `input` / `change` — native events from the panel search field.
+- `click` — the activator was clicked.
+- `inactive` — focus has fully left the component (**trigger and panel**). Because
+  focus legitimately moves into the panel while open, validate/react on
+  `inactive`, not on `blur`.
+
+### Config and platform
+
+- **No teleport** — the popover renders **in the component's own subtree** (it is
+  not portalled to `<body>`), so it inherits your CSS context and is directly
+  queryable (handy for tests: the open panel is `.bb-listbox--open` on the same
+  root, no portal hop).
+- **Global config** — `config.adaptive` (default for `adaptive`),
+  `config.mobileMaxWidth` (the mobile threshold), `config.locale` (the search
+  field's default accessible name and panel string defaults).
+- **SSR / Nuxt** — `prefill: true` providers also run in `onServerPrefetch`, so
+  server-rendered pages hydrate with options loaded; keep providers isomorphic
+  (no `window` access).
+
+### Works well with
+
+- `BbSelect` — the same engine as a labelled form field; swap when the trigger
+  should be an inline input with hint/error states.
+- `BbTable` — popover triggers as inline-edit cells or toolbar filters; list
+  their models in the table provider's `dependencies`.
+- `BbButton` — the natural activator (it forwards `props` and exposes a
+  `loading` state to reflect fetches).
+- `useToast` — surface provider failures the component only logs.
+
+### Gotchas and constraints
+
+- `multiple` with a non-array model **throws at setup** — seed `ref([])`.
+- A seeded model shows **no trigger `text`** until the first load (no eager
+  prefill upgrade, by design) — resolve the label from your own state. Array
+  `items` resolve on mount, so this only bites providers.
+- The local substring filter also applies to provider results — server matches
+  whose text doesn't contain the query are hidden.
+- `filter-by` is `string[]` only and matches exactly those paths; each must exist
+  on every item or matching throws.
+- `prefill: false` is search-first: opening fetches nothing and the panel shows
+  the "search to begin" hint until the user types. It quietly falls back to
+  loading on open when writing is disabled, the model is non-empty, or `items` is
+  an array.
+- `enforce-coherence` + a provider that drops the selection on component-initiated
+  (`prefill === true`) calls = wiped model — and since the check now runs on the
+  **first** load, that wipe happens at mount rather than later. Resolve the
+  current selection in those responses, or enable `stash`.
+- `enforce-coherence` opts **each instance** into its own load. One field, one
+  request; N provider-backed rows, N requests.
+- `option:add` can fire with an empty string — trim and guard.
+- **Clicking the selected option does not clear a single select** — it re-picks
+  it and closes the panel. Emptying is the `clear` callback (activator/panel
+  slot scope), never an accidental second click. Multiple mode still toggles.
+- **`null` as a real "All" option** works — it resolves and renders as the
+  selection — but it overloads the value the component uses for _nothing
+  selected_. So a `null` model stays lazy (nothing to resolve, no load, not even
+  with `enforce-coherence`), `clear` is indistinguishable from picking "All", and
+  an `enforce-coherence` prune emits `null` — i.e. a stale value **widens to
+  "All"** rather than clearing. Fine if you want it; use a sentinel
+  (`'all'`) if "everything" and "nothing" must stay distinct.
+
+### Anti-patterns
+
+- Reading `text` (or `selectedOptions`) for the trigger label instead of
+  computing it from your own state — with a provider they are empty until the
+  first load, so the trigger's appearance ends up depending on whether the panel
+  was ever opened.
+- Binding many instances to **one shared ref**: each judges the same value against
+  its own options and every instance that disagrees emits `null`, so the user's
+  pick is overwritten by its neighbours. One model per row.
+- Giving every table row its own **provider**: N rows becomes N requests. Resolve
+  the options once at page level and pass the same array down.
+- Reaching for `prefill: true` to populate a trigger label.
+- Rebuilding chips, counts or select-all in wrapper markup when `max`,
+  `selectedOptions` and the panel slots cover it.
+- Hand-rolled debounce/loading refs around the provider.
+- `watch(filter, refetch)` when `dependencies` exists; blind `model = null`
+  resets when `enforce-coherence` would preserve still-valid values.
+- Using it where an inline labelled field is wanted (that's `BbSelect`), or for a
+  static three-option choice (that's `BbRadioGroup`).
+
+### Accessibility
+
+- The activator carries the accessible name — make it a real focusable element (a
+  `<button>` or `BbButton`), and give icon-only triggers an `aria-label`.
+- The in-panel search field is labelled by `search-input-aria-label` (defaults to
+  "Search options"); override it to match your domain.
+- The component manages listbox roles, `aria-activedescendant`, the full keyboard
+  model and focus return to the trigger on close — do not reimplement them.
+- Because the trigger is yours, reflect the open state visually (the `shown` slot
+  prop) so keyboard and low-vision users can see the popover is expanded.

+| `selectable` | `boolean \| ((item: Item) => boolean) \| undefined` | `true` |  | Defines whether options are selectable. Can be a global boolean that affects all options or a function that accepts an item and returns a boolean that only affects that item. Non-selectable options are rendered disabled. |
