+# Visual playbook: input
+
+## use_when
+
+Collect structured human choices from the visual — decisions, preferences, triage, scope, or other feedback that is faster to make on the page than by writing a freeform prompt.
+
+## Structure / landmarks / stable ids
+
+| Landmark | Suggested `id` | Role |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Question block | `input-q-<slug>` | One decision: prompt, options, meaning |
+| Control group | `input-controls-<slug>` | Native radios / checkboxes / selects / text |
+| Local selected state | (visible UI only) | Reversible until submit |
+| Submit / commit | `input-submit-<slug>` | Explicit commit of the answer |
+| Answers mirror | (outline / questions) | Durable agent-readable record |
+
+Make each decision surface visible: what is chosen, what options mean, and what happens next. Show selected (local) state separately from committed answers when both exist.
+
+## design_rules
+
+- Build choice UIs from **native** controls: radios, checkboxes, text inputs, selects, textareas, buttons, labels, disclosure summaries.
+- Keep reversible selection local until the human explicitly submits that question.
+- Prefer accessible labels, keyboard focus, and readable mobile layout.
+- Self-contained CSS; no Lavish or share-host dependency.
+- **Do not** require `window.lavish.*`, `data-lavish-*`, poll, queue, or ht-ml.app.
+- Persistence for agents (pick one or both):
+  1. Writer records committed answers in the outline `## Answers` table.
+  2. Writer points to / updates workspace `questions.md` ids (`q-YYYY-MM-DD-NNN` / `Q-###`).
+- Optional tiny local JS may copy form values into a visible "Committed answers" panel on the page for humans; agents still rely on outline / `questions.md`.
+- Explicit background / color-scheme; stable ids on each question wrapper.
+
+## Pitfalls / anti-patterns
+
+- Queuing or committing one answer per radio click while the user can still change their mind.
+- Vague prompts that the agent cannot act on without a follow-up.
+- Hiding the difference between local selection and committed answer.
+- Requiring interaction for content that is only meant to be read.
+- Inventing Lavish poll/queue APIs in DevRites visuals.
+- HTML without outline `## Answers` (when this playbook was used) or a clear `questions.md` pointer.
+
+## DevRites notes
+
+- **Home:** `.devrites/work/<slug>/visual/<name>.html` + `<name>.outline.md`.
+- Outline template: [`outline-template.md`](outline-template.md) — include optional `## Answers` when this playbook is used.
+- **Outline wins** on conflict; answers in the outline (and/or `questions.md`) are the machine SSOT.
+- Does not create a new phase or replace Clarify/`questions.md` ownership — the visual is an optional collection surface.
+- Router: [`index.md`](index.md).

+
+1. `# <Title>` — required
+2. `## Purpose` — required

+4. `## ID inventory` — required (stable HTML ids → meaning)
+5. `## Relationships` — required (relationships / decisions / open questions)
+6. `## Citations` — required (use `None.` in the table body when no repo claim)
+7. `## Open questions` — optional but recommended when uncertainty remains

+# Visual playbook: plan
+
+## use_when
+
+Explain a product or technical plan before implementation — PRD-style approach, technical design, implementation proposal, or pre-build walkthrough that benefits from layout over prose alone.
+
+Use a lighter `comparison` or `diagram` playbook alone when the plan is only one small design choice.
+
+## Structure / landmarks / stable ids
+
+| Landmark | Suggested `id` | Role |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Goal | `plan-goal` | Desired outcome |
+| Current state | `plan-current` | What exists today |
+| Desired behavior | `plan-desired` | Target behavior |
+| Approach | `plan-approach` | High-level proposal |
+| Risks | `plan-risks` | Failure modes / migration / compat |
+| Open questions | `plan-questions` | Unresolved; clear when answered |
+| Options (optional) | `plan-options` | Follow [`comparison.md`](comparison.md) |
+
+A plan should be self-contained enough that another developer could implement from it. Verify claims against the codebase before stating them as fact.
+
+When frontend UX matters, prefer a visual mock of the experience under a consistent local design (CSS in-page) over text-only description.
+
+## design_rules
+
+- Portable single-file HTML; self-contained CSS preferred.
+- Cite real repo paths for architecture claims (outline `## Citations`).
+- Update the plan when questions resolve — do not leave stale open questions that are already decided.
+- Nest other playbooks' surfaces (diagram / comparison / table) with their own stable ids.
+- CDN only when nested Mermaid / diff surfaces need it; note in outline.
+- Explicit background / color-scheme; semantic landmarks.
+
+## Pitfalls / anti-patterns
+
+- Focusing only on ambiguous decisions and omitting the actual proposal.
+- Omitting failure modes, migration, or backwards-compatibility concerns.
+- Leaving resolved questions in the artifact as if still open.
+- Treating Lavish annotation as required for plan review.
+- HTML without outline companion.

+| Deck nav (optional) | `slides-nav` | Prev/next or index |
+| Closing slide | `slide-close` | Decision or next action |
+
+Plan the story before markup: open with the point → context → evidence → decision/next action. Vary composition so consecutive slides do not feel like identical cards unless repetition is intentional.
+
+## design_rules
+
+- Sparse text; let visuals carry explanation.
+- Large type, strong alignment, deliberate whitespace — not dense paragraphs.
+- Make navigation and screen-size assumptions explicit (e.g. "designed for 16:9 presenter view").
+- Prefer self-contained CSS (scroll-snap sections or simple slide panes). CDN only if nested Mermaid/diff needs it; note in outline.
+- Stable `id` on every slide for outline inventory and deep links.
+- Explicit background / color-scheme on the page and each slide.
+
+## Pitfalls / anti-patterns
+
+- Turning every explainer into slides by default.
+- Pasting a scroll-page outline into fixed frames without rewriting the narrative.
+- Dense code review inside slides — use [`code.md`](code.md) on a scroll page instead.
+- Requiring Lavish runtime for advancement or feedback.

+
+Column groups should follow the decision they support: identity → evidence → status → action.
+
+## design_rules
+
+- Use semantic `<table>` / `<thead>` / `<tbody>` / `<th scope>` when data is tabular.
+- Lead with a short summary (counts, risk levels, verdicts) above the grid.
+- Protect long paths, symbols, and URLs from overflow (`overflow-wrap`, narrow-viewport friendly).

-The **fail-on-red step** (workflow step 5) refuses to mark a slice `built` if targeted

-  The slice cannot advance, but an objective root cause is agent-owned recovery work.
-- Marking it `built` would let the next slice build on broken state.
