-# Coordinate Target Zoom
-
-A simple `scale > 1` on a wrapper pushes off-center content OFF the visible canvas. To zoom _into_ a specific non-centered element, apply scale AND an inverse translation in lockstep so the target lands at viewport center.
-
-## How It Works
-
-Two nested wrappers, separated concerns:
-
-1. **Outer wrapper** applies `scale` (the zoom)
-2. **Inner wrapper** applies `translate(x, y)` (the counter-shift)
-
-The translate is the **negation** of the target's offset from center. The inner translate moves the target back to the outer's transform-origin BEFORE the outer scale fires, so the scale around center maps the target to 0.
-
-```
-T = -offset
-```
-
-Derivation (outer scales the inner-translated content):
-
-1. Inner translate moves target by T in pre-scale units → target at `offset + T`
-2. Outer scale S (around center 0,0) maps that to `S × (offset + T)`
-3. For target to land at viewport center: `S × (offset + T) = 0` → **`T = -offset`**
-
-Note: the formula does NOT depend on S. The translate amount is the same whether you zoom 1.5×, 2×, or 3× — as long as the OUTER is the scale and the INNER is the translate, and scale uses `transform-origin: 50% 50%`.
-
-## Getting the offset
-
-`T = -offset` is only as good as `offset`. The #1 way this pattern ships broken is hand-computing `offset` from a layout formula, getting the **sign** or magnitude wrong, and letting the zoom amplify a small error off-screen. **Default to measuring the target's real laid-out center; reserve the formula for symmetric rows.**
-
-### Default — measure the target's actual center (works for ANY layout)
-
-Read where the target actually is, once, at setup. This is immune to sign errors because it's derived from the rendered DOM, not a mental model:
-
-```js
-await document.fonts.ready; // metrics final; fallback fonts are 10–30px off → tens of px after a 3×+ zoom
-const W = 1920,
-  H = 1080;
-const r = document.getElementById("target-card").getBoundingClientRect();
-const TARGET_OFFSET_X = r.left + r.width / 2 - W / 2;
-const TARGET_OFFSET_Y = r.top + r.height / 2 - H / 2;
-// bake these; feed counterX/Y = -TARGET_OFFSET_X/Y to the inner tween
-```
-
-This `getBoundingClientRect` runs **once at setup**, before timeline registration — NOT per-frame (per-frame DOM reads desync under the renderer's parallel sampling; see SKILL universal constraints). Because the measurement is async (`fonts.ready`), build and register the timeline inside the same `async` setup so the baked offset is ready before `window.__timelines[id]` is published.
-
-### Shortcut — symmetric equal-width row ONLY
-
-If (and only if) the target is one of N **equal-width** cards in a centered row with uniform gaps, you may skip measurement:
-
-```js
-const index_offset = targetIndex - (N - 1) / 2;
-const TARGET_OFFSET_X = index_offset * (CARD_WIDTH + CARD_GAP);
-```
-
-⚠️ This assumes every sibling is the **same width**. The moment the row is asymmetric — a wide companion label beside a narrow chip, a wordmark flanked by unequal elements — it gives the wrong answer, often the wrong **sign**: the heavier side shifts the centered target the _opposite_ way you'd guess. (A real example: `companion(220) + gap + wordmark + gap + chip(110)` puts the wordmark ~55px **right** of center, but the "chip − companion" intuition says left.) For anything but equal cards, **measure**.
-
-### Headroom budget — cap the scale from the measured size
-
-A zoom multiplies any centering error, so leave margin. Keep the target ≤ ~88% of the canvas at peak; derive the cap from the measured size instead of picking a round number by feel:
-
-```js
-const maxScale = Math.min((0.88 * W) / r.width, (0.88 * H) / r.height);
-const ZOOM_SCALE = Math.min(DESIRED_SCALE, maxScale);
-```
-
-A target that fills 97%+ of the frame reads as cut-off the instant its center is even slightly off — and a hand-baked offset always is. (The perception gate flags this as `primary-offscreen`, and `data-layout-allow-overflow` does **not** exempt it.)

-## Variations
-
-### Dynamic target lookup via `getBoundingClientRect`
-
-This is now the **default**, not a variation — see [Getting the offset](#getting-the-offset). Always `await document.fonts.ready` before measuring (fallback-font metrics are off by 10–30px, which a 3×+ zoom magnifies into tens of visible px) and measure **once at setup**, never per-frame.
-
-### Zoom out (target → wide view)
-
-Reverse the phases — start at zoomed-in, then `scale: 1` + `x: 0, y: 0` to pull back. The "reveal" beat is the panorama.
-
-### Multi-target zoom sequence
-
-Chain multiple zooms: target A (1.5-2.5s) → pause → target B (3-4s) → pull back (4.5-5s). Each segment needs its own counter-translation pair.
-
-## How to Choose Values
-
-### Layout
-
-- **CARD_WIDTH / CARD_GAP / CARD_PADDING / CARD_RADIUS** — geometric layout.
-  - Constraints: `N × CARD_WIDTH + (N-1) × CARD_GAP < viewportWidth` so all cards fit pre-zoom
-  - Effects: smaller cards → more siblings on screen → busier composition; larger cards → fewer siblings, more emphasis per card
-- **LABEL_FONT_SIZE / PRICE_FONT_SIZE / TAG_FONT_SIZE** — typographic hierarchy.
-  - Range: tag < label < price (price is the focal element after zoom; sizing it largest reinforces this)
-
-### Reveal phase
-
-- **REVEAL_START** — when the cards begin fading in.
-  - Constraints: typically a small offset (~0.2s) for a beat of black before content appears
-- **REVEAL_DUR** — per-card fade-up duration.
-  - Range: 0.4-0.8s
-- **REVEAL_Y** — initial vertical offset of each card before fade-up (in px).
-  - Range: 16-48 px; bigger feels "thrown in," smaller feels gentle
-- **REVEAL_STAGGER** — delay between consecutive card reveals.
-  - Range: 0.06-0.15s; calibrated so all cards finish before `ZOOM_START`
-
-### Zoom phase
-
-- **ZOOM_START** — when the zoom begins.
-  - Constraints: `≥ REVEAL_START + REVEAL_DUR + (N-1) × REVEAL_STAGGER + viewer-scan-time` (give viewer 0.5-1.5s to read the layout before zooming)
-- **ZOOM_DUR** — duration of the zoom tween.
-  - Range: 1.0-2.0s; under 0.8s feels like a teleport, over 2.5s drags
-  - Constraints: scale tween + counter-translate tween MUST share this duration AND ease
-- **ZOOM_SCALE** — final magnification.
-  - Range: 1.5× (modest emphasis) → 3× (dominant focus) → 5×+ (cinematic extreme)
-  - Constraints: card content must remain crisp at this scale; raster source media needs `sourceResolution ≥ rendered × ZOOM_SCALE`
-  - **Headroom budget**: cap from the measured target size so the target stays ≤ ~88% of the canvas at peak — `ZOOM_SCALE = Math.min(DESIRED, 0.88×W/r.width, 0.88×H/r.height)`. Picking a round number by feel (e.g. 3.2× on a 585px wordmark → 1872px = 97% of 1920) leaves no margin, so any centering slop cuts the text off.
-
-### Target reveal + dwell
-
-- **TAG_REVEAL_START** — when the target's hidden tag fades in.
-  - Constraints: `≥ ZOOM_START + ZOOM_DUR` (only reveal after the zoom settles, so viewer's eye is already on the target)
-- **TAG_REVEAL_DUR** — tag fade-in duration.
-  - Range: 0.3-0.6s
-- **DWELL_DUR** — post-zoom hold so the viewer reads the target.
-  - Range: ≥ 1.0s after tag reveals (see "Climax dwell" in Key Principles)
-
-### Color tokens
-
-- **{bgGradient}** — typically a dark radial gradient to vignette the cards
-- **{cardBg} / {cardBorder}** — non-target cards (subtle, recessive)
-- **{targetCardBg} / {targetBorder} / {targetGlow}** — target card visually brighter / haloed so the eye lands there before the zoom even fires
-- **{labelColor} / {textColor} / {accentColor}** — hierarchical text colors; `{accentColor}` reserved for the tag (pops on reveal)
-
-## Key Principles
-
-- **Measure the offset, don't hand-derive it** — for any layout that isn't a symmetric equal-width row, read the target's real center with `getBoundingClientRect` at setup (after `fonts.ready`) and bake it (see [Getting the offset](#getting-the-offset)). Hand-computed offsets silently get the **sign** wrong on asymmetric layouts, and the zoom amplifies the error off-screen — the single most common way this pattern ships broken.
-- **Transform order — outer scales, inner translates** — DO NOT put scale and translate on the SAME element. The transform math becomes tangled (`translate * scale` ≠ `scale * translate` in CSS transform composition). Nested wrappers cleanly separate concerns.
-- **Counter-translate = -offset** — independent of scale. Derive from: outer scale around center maps `(offset + T)` to `S × (offset + T)`. Setting that to zero gives `T = -offset`. A common wrong intuition is `T = -offset × (S - 1)` — it happens to give the same answer at S=2 but is wrong for any other S.
-- **`transform-origin: 50% 50%` on outer wrapper** — non-center origin causes unpredictable inner offset; always center.
-- **`overflow: hidden` on `.scene` REQUIRED** — at zoom > 1, the outer-scaled content can leak beyond the 1920×1080 frame.
-- **Tween scale and counter-translate together** — they MUST share `duration` and `ease`. Otherwise the target drifts mid-zoom (visible "wandering"). Easiest: pass identical params to both tweens at the same time position.
-- **❗ Climax dwell ≥1s after zoom completes** — see SKILL universal constraints. If zoom ends at t=3.0 in a 3.5s comp, viewer barely sees the target; aim for 1.5-2s post-zoom dwell.
-
-## Critical Constraints
-
-- **Timeline must be paused**: `gsap.timeline({ paused: true })`
-- **Registry key = `data-composition-id`**
-- **No CSS `transition` on `.zoom-outer` or `.zoom-inner`** — competes with GSAP
-- **`will-change: transform`** on both wrappers — the transforms update every frame during the zoom phase
-- **`transform-origin: 50% 50%` on `.zoom-outer`** — center-based scaling is what the counter-translate math assumes
-- **Target offset baked once, at setup, from measurement** — measure the target center after `fonts.ready` and bake (see [Getting the offset](#getting-the-offset)); never recompute per-frame in onUpdate, and never hand-estimate the offset for a non-symmetric layout
-- **Scale within the headroom budget** — keep the target ≤ ~88% of the canvas at peak, derived from the measured size (`maxScale = 0.88 × W / measuredWidth`); a target that fills the frame is cut off the instant the center is slightly off

+
+# Coordinate Target Zoom
+
+A simple `scale > 1` on a wrapper pushes off-center content OFF the visible canvas. To zoom _into_ a specific non-centered element, apply scale AND an inverse translation in lockstep so the target lands at viewport center.
+
+## How It Works
+
+Two nested wrappers, separated concerns:
+
+1. **Outer wrapper** applies `scale` (the zoom)
+2. **Inner wrapper** applies `translate(x, y)` (the counter-shift)
+
+The translate is the **negation** of the target's offset from center. The inner translate moves the target back to the outer's transform-origin BEFORE the outer scale fires, so the scale around center maps the target to 0.
+
+```
+T = -offset
+```
+
+Derivation (outer scales the inner-translated content):
+
+1. Inner translate moves target by T in pre-scale units → target at `offset + T`
+2. Outer scale S (around center 0,0) maps that to `S × (offset + T)`
+3. For target to land at viewport center: `S × (offset + T) = 0` → **`T = -offset`**
+
+Note: the formula does NOT depend on S. The translate amount is the same whether you zoom 1.5×, 2×, or 3× — as long as the OUTER is the scale and the INNER is the translate, and scale uses `transform-origin: 50% 50%`.
+
+## Getting the offset
+
+`T = -offset` is only as good as `offset`. The #1 way this pattern ships broken is hand-computing `offset` from a layout formula, getting the **sign** or magnitude wrong, and letting the zoom amplify a small error off-screen. **Default to measuring the target's real laid-out center; reserve the formula for symmetric rows.**
+
+### Default — measure the target's actual center (works for ANY layout)
+
+Read where the target actually is, once, at setup. This is immune to sign errors because it's derived from the rendered DOM, not a mental model:
+
+```js
+await document.fonts.ready; // metrics final; fallback fonts are 10–30px off → tens of px after a 3×+ zoom
+const W = 1920,
+  H = 1080;
+const r = document.getElementById("target-card").getBoundingClientRect();
+const TARGET_OFFSET_X = r.left + r.width / 2 - W / 2;
+const TARGET_OFFSET_Y = r.top + r.height / 2 - H / 2;
+// bake these; feed counterX/Y = -TARGET_OFFSET_X/Y to the inner tween
+```
+
+This `getBoundingClientRect` runs **once at setup**, before timeline registration — NOT per-frame (per-frame DOM reads desync under the renderer's parallel sampling; see SKILL universal constraints). Because the measurement is async (`fonts.ready`), build and register the timeline inside the same `async` setup so the baked offset is ready before `window.__timelines[id]` is published.
+
+### Shortcut — symmetric equal-width row ONLY
+
+If (and only if) the target is one of N **equal-width** cards in a centered row with uniform gaps, you may skip measurement:
+
+```js
+const index_offset = targetIndex - (N - 1) / 2;
+const TARGET_OFFSET_X = index_offset * (CARD_WIDTH + CARD_GAP);
+```
+
+⚠️ This assumes every sibling is the **same width**. The moment the row is asymmetric — a wide companion label beside a narrow chip, a wordmark flanked by unequal elements — it gives the wrong answer, often the wrong **sign**: the heavier side shifts the centered target the _opposite_ way you'd guess. (A real example: `companion(220) + gap + wordmark + gap + chip(110)` puts the wordmark ~55px **right** of center, but the "chip − companion" intuition says left.) For anything but equal cards, **measure**.
+
+### Headroom budget — cap the scale from the measured size
+
+A zoom multiplies any centering error, so leave margin. Keep the target ≤ ~88% of the canvas at peak; derive the cap from the measured size instead of picking a round number by feel:
+
+```js
+const maxScale = Math.min((0.88 * W) / r.width, (0.88 * H) / r.height);
+const ZOOM_SCALE = Math.min(DESIRED_SCALE, maxScale);
+```
+
+A target that fills 97%+ of the frame reads as cut-off the instant its center is even slightly off — and a hand-baked offset always is. (The perception gate flags this as `primary-offscreen`, and `data-layout-allow-overflow` does **not** exempt it.)

+## Variations
+
+### Dynamic target lookup via `getBoundingClientRect`
+
+This is now the **default**, not a variation — see [Getting the offset](#getting-the-offset). Always `await document.fonts.ready` before measuring (fallback-font metrics are off by 10–30px, which a 3×+ zoom magnifies into tens of visible px) and measure **once at setup**, never per-frame.
+
+### Zoom out (target → wide view)
+
+Reverse the phases — start at zoomed-in, then `scale: 1` + `x: 0, y: 0` to pull back. The "reveal" beat is the panorama.
+
+### Multi-target zoom sequence
+
+Chain multiple zooms: target A (1.5-2.5s) → pause → target B (3-4s) → pull back (4.5-5s). Each segment needs its own counter-translation pair.
+
+## How to Choose Values
+
+### Layout
+
+- **CARD_WIDTH / CARD_GAP / CARD_PADDING / CARD_RADIUS** — geometric layout.
+  - Constraints: `N × CARD_WIDTH + (N-1) × CARD_GAP < viewportWidth` so all cards fit pre-zoom
+  - Effects: smaller cards → more siblings on screen → busier composition; larger cards → fewer siblings, more emphasis per card
+- **LABEL_FONT_SIZE / PRICE_FONT_SIZE / TAG_FONT_SIZE** — typographic hierarchy.
+  - Range: tag < label < price (price is the focal element after zoom; sizing it largest reinforces this)
+
+### Reveal phase
+
+- **REVEAL_START** — when the cards begin fading in.
+  - Constraints: typically a small offset (~0.2s) for a beat of black before content appears
+- **REVEAL_DUR** — per-card fade-up duration.
+  - Range: 0.4-0.8s
+- **REVEAL_Y** — initial vertical offset of each card before fade-up (in px).
+  - Range: 16-48 px; bigger feels "thrown in," smaller feels gentle
+- **REVEAL_STAGGER** — delay between consecutive card reveals.
+  - Range: 0.06-0.15s; calibrated so all cards finish before `ZOOM_START`
+
+### Zoom phase
+
+- **ZOOM_START** — when the zoom begins.
+  - Constraints: `≥ REVEAL_START + REVEAL_DUR + (N-1) × REVEAL_STAGGER + viewer-scan-time` (give viewer 0.5-1.5s to read the layout before zooming)
+- **ZOOM_DUR** — duration of the zoom tween.
+  - Range: 1.0-2.0s; under 0.8s feels like a teleport, over 2.5s drags
+  - Constraints: scale tween + counter-translate tween MUST share this duration AND ease
+- **ZOOM_SCALE** — final magnification.
+  - Range: 1.5× (modest emphasis) → 3× (dominant focus) → 5×+ (cinematic extreme)
+  - Constraints: card content must remain crisp at this scale; raster source media needs `sourceResolution ≥ rendered × ZOOM_SCALE`
+  - **Headroom budget**: cap from the measured target size so the target stays ≤ ~88% of the canvas at peak — `ZOOM_SCALE = Math.min(DESIRED, 0.88×W/r.width, 0.88×H/r.height)`. Picking a round number by feel (e.g. 3.2× on a 585px wordmark → 1872px = 97% of 1920) leaves no margin, so any centering slop cuts the text off.
+
+### Target reveal + dwell
+
+- **TAG_REVEAL_START** — when the target's hidden tag fades in.
+  - Constraints: `≥ ZOOM_START + ZOOM_DUR` (only reveal after the zoom settles, so viewer's eye is already on the target)
+- **TAG_REVEAL_DUR** — tag fade-in duration.
+  - Range: 0.3-0.6s
+- **DWELL_DUR** — post-zoom hold so the viewer reads the target.
+  - Range: ≥ 1.0s after tag reveals (see "Climax dwell" in Key Principles)
+
+### Color tokens
+
+- **{bgGradient}** — typically a dark radial gradient to vignette the cards
+- **{cardBg} / {cardBorder}** — non-target cards (subtle, recessive)
+- **{targetCardBg} / {targetBorder} / {targetGlow}** — target card visually brighter / haloed so the eye lands there before the zoom even fires
+- **{labelColor} / {textColor} / {accentColor}** — hierarchical text colors; `{accentColor}` reserved for the tag (pops on reveal)
+
+## Key Principles
+
+- **Measure the offset, don't hand-derive it** — for any layout that isn't a symmetric equal-width row, read the target's real center with `getBoundingClientRect` at setup (after `fonts.ready`) and bake it (see [Getting the offset](#getting-the-offset)). Hand-computed offsets silently get the **sign** wrong on asymmetric layouts, and the zoom amplifies the error off-screen — the single most common way this pattern ships broken.
+- **Transform order — outer scales, inner translates** — DO NOT put scale and translate on the SAME element. The transform math becomes tangled (`translate * scale` ≠ `scale * translate` in CSS transform composition). Nested wrappers cleanly separate concerns.
+- **Counter-translate = -offset** — independent of scale. Derive from: outer scale around center maps `(offset + T)` to `S × (offset + T)`. Setting that to zero gives `T = -offset`. A common wrong intuition is `T = -offset × (S - 1)` — it happens to give the same answer at S=2 but is wrong for any other S.
+- **`transform-origin: 50% 50%` on outer wrapper** — non-center origin causes unpredictable inner offset; always center.
+- **`overflow: hidden` on `.scene` REQUIRED** — at zoom > 1, the outer-scaled content can leak beyond the 1920×1080 frame.
+- **Tween scale and counter-translate together** — they MUST share `duration` and `ease`. Otherwise the target drifts mid-zoom (visible "wandering"). Easiest: pass identical params to both tweens at the same time position.
+- **❗ Climax dwell ≥1s after zoom completes** — see SKILL universal constraints. If zoom ends at t=3.0 in a 3.5s comp, viewer barely sees the target; aim for 1.5-2s post-zoom dwell.
+
+## Critical Constraints
+
+- **Timeline must be paused**: `gsap.timeline({ paused: true })`
+- **Registry key = `data-composition-id`**
+- **No CSS `transition` on `.zoom-outer` or `.zoom-inner`** — competes with GSAP
+- **`will-change: transform`** on both wrappers — the transforms update every frame during the zoom phase
+- **`transform-origin: 50% 50%` on `.zoom-outer`** — center-based scaling is what the counter-translate math assumes
+- **Target offset baked once, at setup, from measurement** — measure the target center after `fonts.ready` and bake (see [Getting the offset](#getting-the-offset)); never recompute per-frame in onUpdate, and never hand-estimate the offset for a non-symmetric layout
+- **Scale within the headroom budget** — keep the target ≤ ~88% of the canvas at peak, derived from the measured size (`maxScale = 0.88 × W / measuredWidth`); a target that fills the frame is cut off the instant the center is slightly off
