+description: "Improve interface resilience through better error handling, i18n support, text overflow handling, and edge case management. Makes interfaces robust and production-ready. Use when the user asks to harden, make production-ready, handle edge cases, add error states, or fix overflow and i18n issues."
+argument-hint: "[target]"
+user-invocable: true
+---
+
+Strengthen interfaces against edge cases, errors, internationalization issues, and real-world usage scenarios that break idealized designs.
+
+## Assess Hardening Needs
+
+Identify weaknesses and edge cases:
+
+1. **Test with extreme inputs**:
+   - Very long text (names, descriptions, titles)
+   - Very short text (empty, single character)
+   - Special characters (emoji, RTL text, accents)
+   - Large numbers (millions, billions)
+   - Many items (1000+ list items, 50+ options)
+   - No data (empty states)
+
+2. **Test error scenarios**:
+   - Network failures (offline, slow, timeout)
+   - API errors (400, 401, 403, 404, 500)
+   - Validation errors
+   - Permission errors
+   - Rate limiting
+   - Concurrent operations
+
+3. **Test internationalization**:
+   - Long translations (German is often 30% longer than English)
+   - RTL languages (Arabic, Hebrew)
+   - Character sets (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, emoji)
+   - Date/time formats
+   - Number formats (1,000 vs 1.000)
+   - Currency symbols
+
+**CRITICAL**: Designs that only work with perfect data aren't production-ready. Harden against reality.
+
+## Hardening Dimensions
+
+Systematically improve resilience:
+
+### Text Overflow & Wrapping
+
+**Long text handling**:
+```css
+/* Single line with ellipsis */
+.truncate {
+  overflow: hidden;
+  text-overflow: ellipsis;
+  white-space: nowrap;
+}
+
+/* Multi-line with clamp */
+.line-clamp {
+  display: -webkit-box;
+  -webkit-line-clamp: 3;
+  -webkit-box-orient: vertical;
+  overflow: hidden;
+}
+
+/* Allow wrapping */
+.wrap {
+  word-wrap: break-word;
+  overflow-wrap: break-word;
+  hyphens: auto;
+}
+```
+
+**Flex/Grid overflow**:
+```css
+/* Prevent flex items from overflowing */
+.flex-item {
+  min-width: 0; /* Allow shrinking below content size */
+  overflow: hidden;
+}
+
+/* Prevent grid items from overflowing */
+.grid-item {
+  min-width: 0;
+  min-height: 0;
+}
+```
+
+**Responsive text sizing**:
+- Use `clamp()` for fluid typography
+- Set minimum readable sizes (14px on mobile)
+- Test text scaling (zoom to 200%)
+- Ensure containers expand with text
+
+### Internationalization (i18n)
+
+**Text expansion**:
+- Add 30-40% space budget for translations
+- Use flexbox/grid that adapts to content
+- Test with longest language (usually German)
+- Avoid fixed widths on text containers
+
+```jsx
+// ❌ Bad: Assumes short English text
+<button className="w-24">Submit</button>
+
+// ✅ Good: Adapts to content
+<button className="px-4 py-2">Submit</button>
+```
+
+**RTL (Right-to-Left) support**:
+```css
+/* Use logical properties */
+margin-inline-start: 1rem; /* Not margin-left */
+padding-inline: 1rem; /* Not padding-left/right */
+border-inline-end: 1px solid; /* Not border-right */
+
+/* Or use dir attribute */
+[dir="rtl"] .arrow { transform: scaleX(-1); }
+```
+
+**Character set support**:
+- Use UTF-8 encoding everywhere
+- Test with Chinese/Japanese/Korean (CJK) characters
+- Test with emoji (they can be 2-4 bytes)
+- Handle different scripts (Latin, Cyrillic, Arabic, etc.)
+
+**Date/Time formatting**:
+```javascript
+// ✅ Use Intl API for proper formatting
+new Intl.DateTimeFormat('en-US').format(date); // 1/15/2024
+new Intl.DateTimeFormat('de-DE').format(date); // 15.1.2024
+
+new Intl.NumberFormat('en-US', { 
+  style: 'currency', 
+  currency: 'USD' 
+}).format(1234.56); // $1,234.56
+```
+
+**Pluralization**:
+```javascript
+// ❌ Bad: Assumes English pluralization
+`${count} item${count !== 1 ? 's' : ''}`
+
+// ✅ Good: Use proper i18n library
+t('items', { count }) // Handles complex plural rules
+```
+
+### Error Handling
+
+**Network errors**:
+- Show clear error messages
+- Provide retry button
+- Explain what happened
+- Offer offline mode (if applicable)
+- Handle timeout scenarios
+
+```jsx
+// Error states with recovery
+{error && (
+  <ErrorMessage>
+    <p>Failed to load data. {error.message}</p>
+    <button onClick={retry}>Try again</button>
+  </ErrorMessage>
+)}
+```
+
+**Form validation errors**:
+- Inline errors near fields
+- Clear, specific messages
+- Suggest corrections
+- Don't block submission unnecessarily
+- Preserve user input on error
+
+**API errors**:
+- Handle each status code appropriately
+  - 400: Show validation errors
+  - 401: Redirect to login
+  - 403: Show permission error
+  - 404: Show not found state
+  - 429: Show rate limit message
+  - 500: Show generic error, offer support
+
+**Graceful degradation**:
+- Core functionality works without JavaScript
+- Images have alt text
+- Progressive enhancement
+- Fallbacks for unsupported features
+
+### Edge Cases & Boundary Conditions
+
+**Empty states**:
+- No items in list
+- No search results
+- No notifications
+- No data to display
+- Provide clear next action
+
+**Loading states**:
+- Initial load
+- Pagination load
+- Refresh
+- Show what's loading ("Loading your projects...")
+- Time estimates for long operations
+
+**Large datasets**:
+- Pagination or virtual scrolling
+- Search/filter capabilities
+- Performance optimization
+- Don't load all 10,000 items at once
+
+**Concurrent operations**:
+- Prevent double-submission (disable button while loading)
+- Handle race conditions
+- Optimistic updates with rollback
+- Conflict resolution
+
+**Permission states**:
+- No permission to view
+- No permission to edit
+- Read-only mode
+- Clear explanation of why
+
+**Browser compatibility**:
+- Polyfills for modern features
+- Fallbacks for unsupported CSS
+- Feature detection (not browser detection)
+- Test in target browsers
+
+### Input Validation & Sanitization
+
+**Client-side validation**:
+- Required fields
+- Format validation (email, phone, URL)
+- Length limits
+- Pattern matching
+- Custom validation rules
+
+**Server-side validation** (always):
+- Never trust client-side only
+- Validate and sanitize all inputs
+- Protect against injection attacks
+- Rate limiting
+
+**Constraint handling**:
+```html
+<!-- Set clear constraints -->
+<input 
+  type="text"
+  maxlength="100"
+  pattern="[A-Za-z0-9]+"
+  required
+  aria-describedby="username-hint"
+/>
+<small id="username-hint">
+  Letters and numbers only, up to 100 characters
+</small>
+```
+
+### Accessibility Resilience
+
+**Keyboard navigation**:
+- All functionality accessible via keyboard
+- Logical tab order
+- Focus management in modals
+- Skip links for long content
+
+**Screen reader support**:
+- Proper ARIA labels
+- Announce dynamic changes (live regions)
+- Descriptive alt text
+- Semantic HTML
+
+**Motion sensitivity**:
+```css
+@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce) {
+  * {
+    animation-duration: 0.01ms !important;
+    animation-iteration-count: 1 !important;
+    transition-duration: 0.01ms !important;
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**High contrast mode**:
+- Test in Windows high contrast mode
+- Don't rely only on color
+- Provide alternative visual cues
+
+### Performance Resilience
+
+**Slow connections**:
+- Progressive image loading
+- Skeleton screens
+- Optimistic UI updates
+- Offline support (service workers)
+
+**Memory leaks**:
+- Clean up event listeners
+- Cancel subscriptions
+- Clear timers/intervals
+- Abort pending requests on unmount
+
+**Throttling & Debouncing**:
+```javascript
+// Debounce search input
+const debouncedSearch = debounce(handleSearch, 300);
+
+// Throttle scroll handler
+const throttledScroll = throttle(handleScroll, 100);
+```
+
+## Testing Strategies
+
+**Manual testing**:
+- Test with extreme data (very long, very short, empty)
+- Test in different languages
+- Test offline
+- Test slow connection (throttle to 3G)
+- Test with screen reader
+- Test keyboard-only navigation
+- Test on old browsers
+
+**Automated testing**:
+- Unit tests for edge cases
+- Integration tests for error scenarios
+- E2E tests for critical paths
+- Visual regression tests
+- Accessibility tests (axe, WAVE)
+
+**IMPORTANT**: Hardening is about expecting the unexpected. Real users will do things you never imagined.
+
+**NEVER**:
+- Assume perfect input (validate everything)
+- Ignore internationalization (design for global)
+- Leave error messages generic ("Error occurred")
+- Forget offline scenarios
+- Trust client-side validation alone
+- Use fixed widths for text
+- Assume English-length text
+- Block entire interface when one component errors
+
+## Verify Hardening
+
+Test thoroughly with edge cases:
+
+- **Long text**: Try names with 100+ characters
+- **Emoji**: Use emoji in all text fields
+- **RTL**: Test with Arabic or Hebrew
+- **CJK**: Test with Chinese/Japanese/Korean
+- **Network issues**: Disable internet, throttle connection
+- **Large datasets**: Test with 1000+ items
+- **Concurrent actions**: Click submit 10 times rapidly
+- **Errors**: Force API errors, test all error states
+- **Empty**: Remove all data, test empty states
+
+Remember: You're hardening for production reality, not demo perfection. Expect users to input weird data, lose connection mid-flow, and use your product in unexpected ways. Build resilience into every component.

+argument-hint: "[feature (page, route, component...)]"
+user-invocable: true
+---
+
+Analyze and redesign the feature to perfectly match our design system standards, aesthetics, and established patterns.
+
+## MANDATORY PREPARATION
+
+Invoke /frontend-design — it contains design principles, anti-patterns, and the **Context Gathering Protocol**. Follow the protocol before proceeding — if no design context exists yet, you MUST run /teach-impeccable first.
+
+---
+
+## Plan
+
+Before making changes, deeply understand the context:
+
+1. **Discover the design system**: Search for design system documentation, UI guidelines, component libraries, or style guides (grep for "design system", "ui guide", "style guide", etc.). Study it thoroughly until you understand:
+   - Core design principles and aesthetic direction
+   - Target audience and personas
+   - Component patterns and conventions
+   - Design tokens (colors, typography, spacing)
+   
+   **CRITICAL**: If something isn't clear, ask. Don't guess at design system principles.
+
+2. **Analyze the current feature**: Assess what works and what doesn't:
+   - Where does it deviate from design system patterns?
+   - Which inconsistencies are cosmetic vs. functional?
+   - What's the root cause—missing tokens, one-off implementations, or conceptual misalignment?
+
+3. **Create a normalization plan**: Define specific changes that will align the feature with the design system:
+   - Which components can be replaced with design system equivalents?
+   - Which styles need to use design tokens instead of hard-coded values?
+   - How can UX patterns match established user flows?
+   
+   **IMPORTANT**: Great design is effective design. Prioritize UX consistency and usability over visual polish alone. Think through the best possible experience for your use case and personas first.
+
+## Execute
+
+Systematically address all inconsistencies across these dimensions:
+
+- **Typography**: Use design system fonts, sizes, weights, and line heights. Replace hard-coded values with typographic tokens or classes.
+- **Color & Theme**: Apply design system color tokens. Remove one-off color choices that break the palette.
+- **Spacing & Layout**: Use spacing tokens (margins, padding, gaps). Align with grid systems and layout patterns used elsewhere.
+- **Components**: Replace custom implementations with design system components. Ensure props and variants match established patterns.
+- **Motion & Interaction**: Match animation timing, easing, and interaction patterns to other features.
+- **Responsive Behavior**: Ensure breakpoints and responsive patterns align with design system standards.
+- **Accessibility**: Verify contrast ratios, focus states, ARIA labels match design system requirements.
+- **Progressive Disclosure**: Match information hierarchy and complexity management to established patterns.
+
+**NEVER**:
+- Create new one-off components when design system equivalents exist
+- Hard-code values that should use design tokens
+- Introduce new patterns that diverge from the design system
+- Compromise accessibility for visual consistency
+
+This is not an exhaustive list—apply judgment to identify all areas needing normalization.
+
+## Clean Up
+
+After normalization, ensure code quality:
+
+- **Consolidate reusable components**: If you created new components that should be shared, move them to the design system or shared UI component path.
+- **Remove orphaned code**: Delete unused implementations, styles, or files made obsolete by normalization.
+- **Verify quality**: Lint, type-check, and test according to repository guidelines. Ensure normalization didn't introduce regressions.
+- **Ensure DRYness**: Look for duplication introduced during refactoring and consolidate.
+
+Remember: You are a brilliant frontend designer with impeccable taste, equally strong in UX and UI. Your attention to detail and eye for end-to-end user experience is world class. Execute with precision and thoroughness.

+
+## MANDATORY PREPARATION
+
+Invoke /frontend-design — it contains design principles, anti-patterns, and the **Context Gathering Protocol**. Follow the protocol before proceeding — if no design context exists yet, you MUST run /teach-impeccable first. Additionally gather: the "aha moment" you want users to reach, and users' experience level.
+
+---
+
+Create or improve onboarding experiences that help users understand, adopt, and succeed with the product quickly.
+
+## Assess Onboarding Needs
+
+Understand what users need to learn and why:
+
+1. **Identify the challenge**:
+   - What are users trying to accomplish?
+   - What's confusing or unclear about current experience?
+   - Where do users get stuck or drop off?
+   - What's the "aha moment" we want users to reach?
+
+2. **Understand the users**:
+   - What's their experience level? (Beginners, power users, mixed?)
+   - What's their motivation? (Excited and exploring? Required by work?)
+   - What's their time commitment? (5 minutes? 30 minutes?)
+   - What alternatives do they know? (Coming from competitor? New to category?)
+
+3. **Define success**:
+   - What's the minimum users need to learn to be successful?
+   - What's the key action we want them to take? (First project? First invite?)
+   - How do we know onboarding worked? (Completion rate? Time to value?)
+
+**CRITICAL**: Onboarding should get users to value as quickly as possible, not teach everything possible.
+
+## Onboarding Principles
+
+Follow these core principles:
+
+### Show, Don't Tell
+- Demonstrate with working examples, not just descriptions
+- Provide real functionality in onboarding, not separate tutorial mode
+- Use progressive disclosure - teach one thing at a time
+
+### Make It Optional (When Possible)
+- Let experienced users skip onboarding
+- Don't block access to product
+- Provide "Skip" or "I'll explore on my own" options
+
+### Time to Value
+- Get users to their "aha moment" ASAP
+- Front-load most important concepts
+- Teach 20% that delivers 80% of value
+- Save advanced features for contextual discovery
+
+### Context Over Ceremony
+- Teach features when users need them, not upfront
+- Empty states are onboarding opportunities
+- Tooltips and hints at point of use
+
+### Respect User Intelligence
+- Don't patronize or over-explain
+- Be concise and clear
+- Assume users can figure out standard patterns
+
+## Design Onboarding Experiences
+
+Create appropriate onboarding for the context:
+
+### Initial Product Onboarding
+
+**Welcome Screen**:
+- Clear value proposition (what is this product?)
+- What users will learn/accomplish
+- Time estimate (honest about commitment)
+- Option to skip (for experienced users)
+
+**Account Setup**:
+- Minimal required information (collect more later)
+- Explain why you're asking for each piece of information
+- Smart defaults where possible
+- Social login when appropriate
+
+**Core Concept Introduction**:
+- Introduce 1-3 core concepts (not everything)
+- Use simple language and examples
+- Interactive when possible (do, don't just read)
+- Progress indication (step 1 of 3)
+
+**First Success**:
+- Guide users to accomplish something real
+- Pre-populated examples or templates
+- Celebrate completion (but don't overdo it)
+- Clear next steps
+
+### Feature Discovery & Adoption
+
+**Empty States**:
+Instead of blank space, show:
+- What will appear here (description + screenshot/illustration)
+- Why it's valuable
+- Clear CTA to create first item
+- Example or template option
+
+Example:
+```
+No projects yet
+Projects help you organize your work and collaborate with your team.
+[Create your first project] or [Start from template]
+```
+
+**Contextual Tooltips**:
+- Appear at relevant moment (first time user sees feature)
+- Point directly at relevant UI element
+- Brief explanation + benefit
+- Dismissable (with "Don't show again" option)
+- Optional "Learn more" link
+
+**Feature Announcements**:
+- Highlight new features when they're released
+- Show what's new and why it matters
+- Let users try immediately
+- Dismissable
+
+**Progressive Onboarding**:
+- Teach features when users encounter them
+- Badges or indicators on new/unused features
+- Unlock complexity gradually (don't show all options immediately)
+
+### Guided Tours & Walkthroughs
+
+**When to use**:
+- Complex interfaces with many features
+- Significant changes to existing product
+- Industry-specific tools needing domain knowledge
+
+**How to design**:
+- Spotlight specific UI elements (dim rest of page)
+- Keep steps short (3-7 steps max per tour)
+- Allow users to click through tour freely
+- Include "Skip tour" option
+- Make replayable (help menu)
+
+**Best practices**:
+- Interactive > passive (let users click real buttons)
+- Focus on workflow, not features ("Create a project" not "This is the project button")
+- Provide sample data so actions work
+
+### Interactive Tutorials
+
+**When to use**:
+- Users need hands-on practice
+- Concepts are complex or unfamiliar
+- High stakes (better to practice in safe environment)
+
+**How to design**:
+- Sandbox environment with sample data
+- Clear objectives ("Create a chart showing sales by region")
+- Step-by-step guidance
+- Validation (confirm they did it right)
+- Graduation moment (you're ready!)
+
+### Documentation & Help
+
+**In-product help**:
+- Contextual help links throughout interface
+- Keyboard shortcut reference
+- Search-able help center
+- Video tutorials for complex workflows
+
+**Help patterns**:
+- `?` icon near complex features
+- "Learn more" links in tooltips
+- Keyboard shortcut hints (`⌘K` shown on search box)
+
+## Empty State Design
+
+Every empty state needs:
+
+### What Will Be Here
+"Your recent projects will appear here"
+
+### Why It Matters  
+"Projects help you organize your work and collaborate with your team"
+
+### How to Get Started
+[Create project] or [Import from template]
+
+### Visual Interest
+Illustration or icon (not just text on blank page)
+
+### Contextual Help
+"Need help getting started? [Watch 2-min tutorial]"
+
+**Empty state types**:
+- **First use**: Never used this feature (emphasize value, provide template)
+- **User cleared**: Intentionally deleted everything (light touch, easy to recreate)
+- **No results**: Search or filter returned nothing (suggest different query, clear filters)
+- **No permissions**: Can't access (explain why, how to get access)
+- **Error state**: Failed to load (explain what happened, retry option)
+
+## Implementation Patterns
+
+### Technical approaches:
+
+**Tooltip libraries**: Tippy.js, Popper.js
+**Tour libraries**: Intro.js, Shepherd.js, React Joyride
+**Modal patterns**: Focus trap, backdrop, ESC to close
+**Progress tracking**: LocalStorage for "seen" states
+**Analytics**: Track completion, drop-off points
+
+**Storage patterns**:
+```javascript
+// Track which onboarding steps user has seen
+localStorage.setItem('onboarding-completed', 'true');
+localStorage.setItem('feature-tooltip-seen-reports', 'true');
+```
+
+**IMPORTANT**: Don't show same onboarding twice (annoying). Track completion and respect dismissals.
+
+**NEVER**:
+- Force users through long onboarding before they can use product
+- Patronize users with obvious explanations
+- Show same tooltip repeatedly (respect dismissals)
+- Block all UI during tour (let users explore)
+- Create separate tutorial mode disconnected from real product
+- Overwhelm with information upfront (progressive disclosure!)
+- Hide "Skip" or make it hard to find
+- Forget about returning users (don't show initial onboarding again)
+
+## Verify Onboarding Quality
+
+Test with real users:
+
+- **Time to completion**: Can users complete onboarding quickly?
+- **Comprehension**: Do users understand after completing?
+- **Action**: Do users take desired next step?
+- **Skip rate**: Are too many users skipping? (Maybe it's too long/not valuable)
+- **Completion rate**: Are users completing? (If low, simplify)
+- **Time to value**: How long until users get first value?
+
+Remember: You're a product educator with excellent teaching instincts. Get users to their "aha moment" as quickly as possible. Teach the essential, make it contextual, respect user time and intelligence.
+
