+# shadcn/ui Expert — Component Architecture Mastery
+
+## Mandatory Pre-Flight Context Inspection
+
+Before generating, refactoring, or reviewing code in the `shadcn-ui-expert` domain, inspect these 5 critical parameters:
+
+1. **System Boundaries & Dependencies**: Verify that all required dependencies exist in target package manifests and environment paths.
+2. **Runtime Context & Platform Invariants**: Confirm target platform constraints (Node.js, Browser, Mobile OS, Edge runtime) before applying APIs.
+3. **Execution Guardrails**: Identify potential side-effects, state mutations, and unhandled asynchronous exceptions.
+4. **Validation & Type Contracts**: Validate input data schemas and strict type constraints across all module interfaces.
+5. **Observability & Proof of Execution**: Ensure execution produces tangible verification signals (terminal output, tests, metrics).
+
+## Activation Boundaries
+
+- **Activate when:** Use when shadcn/ui mastery. Installation, customization via tailwind.config, component extraction, state management with Radix Primitives, theme variables (CSS custom properties), dark mode implementations, and overriding default designs. Use when building or modifying shadcn/ui components in React/Next.js projects.
+- **DO NOT activate when:** The task falls outside the `shadcn-ui-expert` domain or is managed by a different dedicated specialist.
+
+## 🔁 Multi-Pass Execution Protocol
+
+Execute all non-trivial tasks through this 7-pass cognitive loop:
+
+| Pass | Phase | Core Action |
+|:---|:---|:---|
+| **Pass 1** | **Understand** | Deconstruct the user's explicit objective, implicit requirements, and platform constraints. |
+| **Pass 2** | **Plan** | Decompose the task into smallest logical steps; map dependencies and required tool calls. |
+| **Pass 3** | **Execute** | Implement the solution with production-grade craft, zero placeholders, and strict typing. |
+| **Pass 4** | **Verify** | Run linters, unit tests, or compiler checks to validate structural correctness. |
+| **Pass 5** | **Attack** | Perform an adversarial review searching for edge-case failures, race conditions, and traps. |
+| **Pass 6** | **Improve** | Eliminate discovered friction, optimize performance, and harden error boundaries. |
+| **Pass 7** | **Quality Gate** | Enforce Verification-Before-Completion (VBC) with concrete terminal proof before finalizing. |

+
+## Hallucination Traps (Read First)
+
+- ❌ `import { Button } from 'shadcn-ui'` -> ✅ shadcn/ui is NOT a package; components are copied into YOUR project. Import from `@/components/ui/button`
+- ❌ Using shadcn/ui without initializing it -> ✅ Run `npx shadcn@latest init` first; it generates tailwind config and utils
+- ❌ Assuming all shadcn components are installed -> ✅ Each component must be added separately: `npx shadcn@latest add button`
+- ❌ Overriding Radix primitive props without understanding accessibility -> ✅ Radix handles focus, keyboard, and ARIA; don't break it
+
+---
+
+---
+
+## 1. Core Architecture
+
+shadcn/ui leverages two layers:
+
+1. **Radix UI Primitives**: Headless, fully accessible functionality (Focus management, ARIA, Keyboard nav).
+2. **Tailwind CSS**: The styling layer mapped over the headless components.
+
+```typescript
+// ❌ BAD: Re-inventing the wheel for accessibility
+const Select = ({ options }) => {
+  const [open, setOpen] = useState(false)
+  return <div onClick={() => setOpen(!open)}>...</div> // Breaks keyboard/screen readers
+}
+
+// ✅ GOOD: Using shadcn (Radix under the hood)
+import { Select, SelectContent, SelectItem, SelectTrigger, SelectValue } from "@/components/ui/select"
+
+export function MySelect() {
+  return (
+    <Select>
+      <SelectTrigger className="w-[180px]">
+        <SelectValue placeholder="Theme" />
+      </SelectTrigger>
+      <SelectContent>
+        <SelectItem value="light">Light</SelectItem>
+        <SelectItem value="dark">Dark</SelectItem>
+      </SelectContent>
+    </Select>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 2. Component Modification (You Own The Code)
+
+Do not treat `components/ui/*` as an immutable black box. You are _supposed_ to modify them.
+
+### Adding Variants via `cva` (Class Variance Authority)
+
+```typescript
+import { cva, type VariantProps } from 'class-variance-authority';
+
+// Adding a new "ghost-rounded" variant to the Button component
+const buttonVariants = cva(
+  'inline-flex items-center justify-center whitespace-nowrap rounded-md text-sm font-medium transition-colors...',
+  {
+    variants: {
+      variant: {
+        default: 'bg-primary text-primary-foreground shadow hover:bg-primary/90',
+        destructive: 'bg-destructive text-destructive-foreground shadow-sm hover:bg-destructive/90',
+        outline:
+          'border border-input bg-background shadow-sm hover:bg-accent hover:text-accent-foreground',
+        // YOUR CUSTOM VARIANT:
+        'ghost-rounded':
+          'bg-transparent hover:bg-accent hover:text-accent-foreground rounded-full px-6',
+      },
+      size: {
+        default: 'h-9 px-4 py-2',
+        sm: 'h-8 rounded-md px-3 text-xs',
+        lg: 'h-10 rounded-md px-8',
+        icon: 'h-9 w-9',
+      },
+    },
+    defaultVariants: {
+      variant: 'default',
+      size: 'default',
+    },
+  },
+);
+```
+
+---
+
+## 3. Theming & Dark Mode (CSS Variables)
+
+shadcn/ui manages themes explicitly through CSS custom properties (variables), not Tailwind config hardcoding.
+
+```css
+/* app/globals.css */
+@layer base {
+  :root {
+    --background: 0 0% 100%;
+    --foreground: 222.2 84% 4.9%;
+    --card: 0 0% 100%;
+    --card-foreground: 222.2 84% 4.9%;
+    --primary: 221.2 83.2% 53.3%;
+    --primary-foreground: 210 40% 98%;
+    /* ... */
+    --radius: 0.5rem;
+  }
+
+  .dark {
+    --background: 222.2 84% 4.9%;
+    --foreground: 210 40% 98%;
+    --card: 222.2 84% 4.9%;
+    --primary: 217.2 91.2% 59.8%;
+    /* ... */
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Implementation with Tailwind v4 CSS-first configuration:
+
+```css
+/* Note how standard colors map directly to the CSS vars */
+@theme {
+  --color-background: hsl(var(--background));
+  --color-foreground: hsl(var(--foreground));
+  --color-primary: hsl(var(--primary));
+  --color-primary-foreground: hsl(var(--primary-foreground));
+  --radius-lg: var(--radius);
+  --radius-md: calc(var(--radius) - 2px);
+  --radius-sm: calc(var(--radius) - 4px);
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 4. Using the `cn` Utility
+
+The `cn` utility combines `clsx` (conditional classes) and `tailwind-merge` (fixing class conflicts).
+
+```typescript
+import { clsx, type ClassValue } from 'clsx';
+import { twMerge } from 'tailwind-merge';
+
+export function cn(...inputs: ClassValue[]) {
+  return twMerge(clsx(inputs));
+}
+
+// ❌ BAD: String concatenation breeds conflicts
+// hover:bg-blue-500 will fail if className contains hover:bg-red-500 earlier
+const className = `px-4 py-2 bg-blue-500 hover:bg-blue-600 ${props.className}`;
+
+// ✅ GOOD: cn resolves conflicts correctly
+const className = cn('px-4 py-2 bg-blue-500 hover:bg-blue-600', props.className);
+```
+
+---
+
+## 5. Next.js App Router Integration
+
+### Modals / Dialogs inside Server Components
+
+Radix primitives (Dialog, Select, etc.) utilize React context and side effects. They must be Client Components.
+
+```typescript
+// ❌ BAD: Server Component trying to use a shadcn Dialog directly with state
+export default function Page() {
+  const [open, setOpen] = useState(false); // ERROR
+  return <Dialog open={open}>...</Dialog>
+}
+
+// ✅ GOOD: Extract the interactive part to a Client Component
+import { MyDialogComponent } from "./MyDialogComponent" // "use client" inside
+
+export default async function Page() {
+  const data = await fetchDb(); // Server Component fetches data
+  return <MyDialogComponent data={data} /> // Passes data to interactive client component
+}
+```

+| **Network Timeout / Latency** | Hanging operations or duplicate side-effects | Implement bounded abort controllers, exponential backoff, and idempotency keys |
+| **Concurrency / Race Conditions** | Stale state overwrite or inconsistent data mutations | Use atomic transactions, mutex locking, or cancel-on-resubmit controls |
+| **Invalid Schema / Malformed Payload** | Downstream runtime errors or security injection | Validate boundary payloads with Zod/Pydantic schemas prior to execution |
+| **Resource / Memory Saturation** | OOM errors, frame drops, or memory leaks | Clean up listeners, cancel active timers, and enforce pagination/virtualization |

+
+## The 3-Step Shaping Workflow
+
+### Step 1: High-Ambiguity Socratic Interview
+
+Before designing components, ask 2 targeted questions about high-ambiguity choices:
+
+1. **Primary User Goal**: _What is the single most important action the user must accomplish on this screen?_
+2. **Context & Entry Point**: _Where does the user arrive from, and where do they expect to go after completing this step?_
+
+### Step 2: Screen Boundaries & State Inventory
+
+Define the component states before implementation:
+
+- **Default State**: Primary layout with standard populated data.
+- **Empty State**: Zero-data view with creation prompt.
+- **Loading State**: Skeleton placeholders.
+- **Error State**: Graceful fallback UI with retry action.
+- **Success State**: Instant feedback toast or confirmation view.
+
+### Step 3: Architecture Contract
+
+Summarize the screen contract in a concise visual outline before coding:
+
+```
+[Screen Title]
+  ├── Entry Point: (e.g. Dashboard -> "New Project" button)
+  ├── Primary Action: (e.g. Create Project Form)
+  ├── Secondary Actions: (e.g. Import from GitHub)
+  └── Exit Point: (e.g. Redirect to /project/[id])
+```

+
+## 4 Soft Design Rules
+
+### 1. Multi-Layer Soft Ambient Depth
+
+- Avoid harsh drop-shadows. Use low-opacity multi-layered ambient lighting shadows:
+
+```css
+.soft-depth-card {
+  background: var(--surface);
+  box-shadow:
+    0 2px 4px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.02),
+    0 8px 16px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.04),
+    0 24px 48px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.06);
+  border: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.06);
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Generous Negative Space Cadence
+
+- Increase component padding by 1.5x (e.g. `24px` -> `36px`, `32px` -> `48px`). Generous negative space is the ultimate indicator of luxury software.
+
+### 3. Subdued Monochrome Color Harmonies
+
+- Use quiet, low-chroma monochromatic palettes (`oklch(0.97 0.005 240)` background with `oklch(0.22 0.01 240)` primary text).
+
+### 4. Fluid, Low-Velocity Transitions
+
+- Transition speeds should be gentle ($\approx 250\text{ms}$) with strong ease-out curves (`cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1)`).

+## 🚨 Edge-Case & Failure Mode Matrix
+
+| Scenario | Risk | Mitigation Strategy |
+|:---|:---|:---|
+| **Empty or Null Inputs** | Unhandled exception or unexpected rendering collapse | Enforce fallback guards, optional chaining, and explicit empty state handlers |
+| **Network Timeout / Latency** | Hanging operations or duplicate side-effects | Implement bounded abort controllers, exponential backoff, and idempotency keys |
+| **Concurrency / Race Conditions** | Stale state overwrite or inconsistent data mutations | Use atomic transactions, mutex locking, or cancel-on-resubmit controls |
+| **Invalid Schema / Malformed Payload** | Downstream runtime errors or security injection | Validate boundary payloads with Zod/Pydantic schemas prior to execution |
+| **Resource / Memory Saturation** | OOM errors, frame drops, or memory leaks | Clean up listeners, cancel active timers, and enforce pagination/virtualization |
+

+
+## 🤖 LLM-Specific Traps Table
+
+| Anti-Pattern | What AI Commonly Does Wrong | What Is Actually Correct |
+|:---|:---|:---|
+| **Hallucinated Tool Capabilities** | Assuming an external library or CLI command exists without verification | Run a verification check or verify package.json before referencing tools |
+| **Premature Completion Claim** | Declaring a task finished because code was generated without verification | Execute tests, linters, or terminal commands to provide concrete proof |
+| **Context Bloat Dumping** | Pasting entire multi-thousand-line files into prompt context | Extract targeted excerpts, symbols, and signatures to preserve tokens |

+
+### ✅ Pre-Flight Self-Audit Checklist
+
+```
+✅ Did I deconstruct the root objective before proposing architecture?
+✅ Did I identify dependencies, bottlenecks, and parallelizable sub-tasks?
+✅ Did I avoid over-engineering and select the simplest effective pattern?
+✅ Did I verify assumptions with concrete file reads instead of speculation?
+✅ Did I establish measurable verification criteria before completion?
+```
+
+### 🛑 Verification-Before-Completion (VBC) Protocol
+
+**CRITICAL:** You must follow a strict "evidence-based closeout" state machine.
+- ❌ **Forbidden:** Declaring a task complete because the output "looks correct."
+- ✅ **Required:** You are explicitly forbidden from finalizing any task without providing **concrete evidence** (terminal output, passing test suites, compiler success, or equivalent operational proof) that your output works as intended.
