+# v2.4.0 release preparation
+
+Status: local release candidate; not published by this task.
+
+## Compatibility contract
+
+- Package, lockfile, and manifest remain version `2.4.0`.
+- All 20 presets, 20 shared themes, three modes, 29 semantic selectors, and v2 import paths remain supported.
+- `data-ui` and `data-mode` are required; omit `data-theme` for a native palette.
+- Named themes retain shared `--usk-*` color ownership. Native demo edits target actual preset RGB variables, including material-specific colors.
+- The typed `--ui-color-bg` resolves through `--usk-native-bg` to the active preset background.
+- Existing companion compatibility pins remain unchanged; this task does not upgrade sibling libraries.
+
+## Prepared changes
+
+The accumulated candidate includes reference-driven preset refinements and native
+control coverage. This audit adds shared trust-seal text inheritance, the native
+background handshake fix, material-aware palette editing, validated demo deep
+links, and Organic Modern native-light contrast corrections. Recent Maximalist and
+Tactile annotation corrections remain included. Generated documentation and demo
+entrypoints now use the same bounded file-lock retries as distribution CSS.
+The manifest now inventories existing Bento, Bauhaus, Clay, and Tactile workspace
+classes that were absent from capability metadata. Organic's duplicate `field`
+entry was removed from preset extras because it remains a universal capability;
+authored component behavior is unchanged by these metadata corrections.
+
+The default demo presents one unified kit with a style-specific gallery. Industrial
+Utility's instruments and local alarm flow remain visible. Original complete boards
+are available through `?view=reference`, not duplicated above the public showcase.
+
+README, token/native/style guides, changelog, contributor/publishing instructions,
+and tracked wiki sources describe the same native/theme model. Focused CSS bundle
+sizes and demo asset hashes are regenerated from actual build output.
+
+## Verification boundary
+
+Focused regression checks are run per changed behavior. Final local checks cover
+build output, lint, syntax, documented imports, semantic and package contracts,
+contrast, browser-free compatibility, and ownership. Record actual results below;
+do not infer current results from old snapshots or prior design-QA reports.
+
+Browser navigation was blocked by an admin-policy verification error in the Codex
+browser path. No alternate browser or file-URL workaround was used. Rendered
+desktop/mobile comparisons, browser interactions, Axe, the 3,600-case engine
+matrix, and packed-browser ecosystem verification remain unverified in this audit.
+
+### Final local results
+
+- Build: passed; default, visual, all 20 focused, and bridge bundles regenerated, together with manifest snapshots, README measurements, and asset hashes.
+- CSS lint: passed after the final source and tooling changes.
+- Contrast: passed all 1,200 named-theme combinations and 60 native fallback palettes. This is token-pair arithmetic, not rendered accessibility certification.
+- CSS compatibility: passed 26 generated entrypoints against 60 resolved browser targets; this is a parser/policy check, not execution in those browsers.
+- CSS ownership: passed 35,799 declarations with zero reviewed exceptions.
+- Package integrity: passed; exports, tracked documentation links, wiki routes, release-version surfaces, semantic producer contracts, measured bundle sizes, and demo asset hashes have focused checks.
+- Focused regressions: passed native-material inventory/edit/export/reset isolation, None/null selection, deep links, seal foreground inheritance, all-preset background mapping, Organic contrast, and generated-file retry/error handling. Checks were run individually; no full unit or CI suite was run.
+- Dependency audit: `npm audit --audit-level=moderate` passed with zero reported vulnerabilities after the targeted `fast-uri` patch below.
+- Packaging dry run: `npm pack --dry-run --ignore-scripts --json` passed with 125 files (approximately 12.6 MiB packed / 31.4 MiB unpacked). The release/demo/Tactile guides are included; demo, test, wiki, and temporary output directories are excluded. Lifecycle hooks were disabled, so this was inventory validation, not the full prepublish chain.
+
+### Development-tooling security correction
+
+The installed chain was `stylelint → table → ajv → fast-uri@3.1.5`. AJV uses the
+URI resolver for schema references; no URI fetch path or runtime JavaScript
+dependency was established in this CSS package. The confirmed finding was the
+vulnerable installed tooling and failed audit gate, not a demonstrated application
+SSRF endpoint.
+
+The security-fix checklist kept this change to the existing override, lockfile,
+and focused regression coverage: `fast-uri@3.1.6`, within AJV's supported v3 range.
+The upstream patch addresses [URI canonicalization advisories](https://github.com/fastify/fast-uri/releases/tag/v3.1.6).
+The malformed-IPv6 regression failed before the update and passed afterward;
+encoded schemes, nested host escapes, and scheme-relative IDN normalization also
+passed. Ordinary URI resolution, AJV schema references, the exact override
+contract, and CSS lint passed. No network requests were made by these URI fixtures.
+
+Only one installed package changed. Other overrides, direct dependencies, public
+CSS imports, and consumer APIs were preserved. Browser and packed-consumer proof
+remain outside this narrow tooling fix and are still pending for the release.
+
+## Publication handoff
+
+Do not tag, publish, or merge on the strength of static checks alone. Complete the
+required browser and packed-consumer gates using [Publishing](PUBLISHING.md), review
+the full candidate diff, and obtain the requested release authority. Set the real
+release date in the changelog at that handoff. The tracked `wiki/` sources still
+need a separate hosted-wiki publication step.
+
+No commit, push, release tag, GitHub Release, npm publication, or deployment is part
+of this local preparation task.

+# v2.4.1 release preparation
+
+## Scope
+
+UI Style Kit CSS 2.4.1 packages the five shared color themes already merged into
+`main`: Signal Yellow, Botanical Green, Cobalt Electric, Stone Graphite, and Walnut
+Clay. Each theme provides light, dark, and contrast palettes through the existing
+`data-theme` and `data-mode` contract.
+
+The release preserves the v2 selectors and package entrypoints. It does not add or
+remove preset identifiers, exports, cascade layers, or companion-library ownership
+boundaries.
+
+## Release surfaces
+
+- Package, lockfile, public manifest, web manifests, structured metadata, generated
+  CSS banners, compatibility metadata, README, wiki sources, and maintained release
+  documentation identify `2.4.1`.
+- The changelog records the theme additions, expanded 4,500-case browser matrix,
+  demo metadata refresh, and Signal Yellow foreground correction under the dated
+  `2.4.1` entry.
+- The aligned companion versions remain `interactive-surface-css@1.7.0` and
+  `layout-style-css@3.1.0`.
+
+## Verification boundary
+
+Run focused version and compatibility tests after updating source metadata, then run
+the repository's final `npm run release:verify` gate. That gate rebuilds generated
+assets, lints authored CSS, executes unit and release-smoke browser checks, validates
+contrast, compatibility, ownership, package contents, ecosystem preflight, audit,
+and the dry-run tarball.
+
+A local green gate does not publish anything. Merge the reviewed release branch into
+`main` before creating `v2.4.1`; the tag-alignment workflow creates the GitHub Release,
+and the protected npm workflow publishes the immutable tagged package.

+# Retro Glass
+
+The `retro-glass` preset implements the retained RetroGlass light and dark element
+boards with rounded glass surfaces, brushed chrome, inset inputs, and glossy actions.
+All components use the `rg-*` API. The shared semantic API remains unchanged.
+
+```html
+<link rel="stylesheet" href="ui-style-kit-css/retro-glass.css">
+<main data-ui="retro-glass" data-mode="dark">
+  <section class="rg-panel">
+    <h2 class="rg-section-title">Library</h2>
+    <label class="rg-field">
+      <span class="rg-label">Search documents</span>
+      <input class="rg-input" type="search">
+    </label>
+    <button class="rg-button rg-button-primary">Apply</button>
+  </section>
+</main>
+```
+
+## Themes
+
+Omit `data-theme` for the reference palette. Set `data-theme` to any supported
+scheme, such as `arctic-indigo`, to use semantic `--usk-*-rgb` colors. Switch
+`data-mode` between `light`, `dark`, and `contrast` without changing markup.
+Custom semantic tokens continue to override preset fallbacks.
+
+The demo's mode pill activates the reference palette and updates the color-theme
+selector. Choosing a shared theme restores that scheme. The token editor supports
+both paths; reference overrides are scoped to the active preset and mode.
+
+Default controls follow a 36px rhythm with 6px corners. Panels use 10px corners,
+window chrome uses 14px, and badges, switches, and tracks use pills. Touch input
+expands interactive targets to at least 44px. Application text defaults to 14px;
+the desktop specimen uses compact documentation typography from the reference.
+
+Reference accent channels are retained. Muted text and essential borders use
+stronger foregrounds for contrast. Glossy actions have a dedicated foreground
+because their shaded material differs from a flat semantic swatch.
+
+## Component Coverage
+
+| Board group | Public classes and states |
+| --- | --- |
+| Action states | `rg-button`, `rg-button-primary`, `rg-button-secondary`, `rg-button-ghost`, `rg-button-danger`, `rg-icon-button`; default, hover, pressed, loading, disabled |
+| Form inputs | `rg-field`, `rg-label`, `rg-input`, `rg-select`, `rg-textarea`, `rg-input-wrap`, `rg-input-icon`, `rg-helper`, `rg-error-text` |
+| Choices and tags | `rg-choice`, `rg-switch`, `rg-switch-track`, `rg-switch-thumb`, `rg-segmented`, `rg-segment`, `rg-chip`, `rg-chip-danger`, `rg-chip-warning` |
+| Select and upload | `rg-dropdown`, `rg-option`, `rg-tags`, `rg-file` |
+| Ranges and progress | `rg-range`, `rg-range-critical`, `rg-progress`, `rg-progress-bar`, `rg-progress-danger`, `rg-meter`, `rg-stepper`, `rg-step` |
+| Feedback | `rg-alert` and success/warning/danger modifiers, `rg-toast`, `rg-spinner`, `rg-skeleton` |
+| Navigation | `rg-breadcrumb`, `rg-tabs`, `rg-tab`, `rg-nav`, `rg-nav-link`, `rg-pagination`, `rg-pagination-page` |
+| Data | `rg-table`, `rg-badge` and semantic modifiers, `rg-avatar`, `rg-avatar-danger`, `rg-avatar-neutral`, `rg-avatar-group` |
+| Overlays and disclosure | `rg-tooltip`, `rg-popover`, `rg-modal`, `rg-modal-actions`, `rg-accordion` |
+| Foundations | `rg-title`, `rg-heading`, `rg-section-title`, `rg-overline`, `rg-token-swatch`, `rg-code`, `rg-list`, `rg-quote`, existing `rg-console` |
+
+The library keeps canonical single-hyphen modifiers, translating reference names
+such as `rg-button--primary` to `rg-button-primary`. The template's pagination
+item becomes `rg-pagination-page`; the existing `rg-page` layout shell is preserved.
+Every published preset extra is listed in `manifest.json`.
+
+## State And Interaction Contracts
+
+- Use native `disabled`, `aria-busy`, `aria-invalid`, `aria-selected`, and
+  `aria-current` attributes. Static `.is-hover`, `.is-focus`, `.is-pressed`,
+  `.is-loading`, and `.is-disabled` classes are available for specimens.
+- Associate visible error text with its input using `aria-describedby`.
+- Keep switch inputs focusable. Include the `rg-switch-thumb` inside the track.
+- Set `--rg-value` to a percentage for range fill and meter position. Update it
+  alongside the native input value and an accessible `output`.
+- Set `--rg-progress-value` on `rg-progress-bar`. Supply the progressbar name and
+  `aria-valuemin`, `aria-valuemax`, and `aria-valuenow` on the track.
+- Use native `dialog.showModal()` for modal behavior and native `details` for
+  disclosure. A visual `rg-modal` class alone does not create a focus trap.
+- Set `--rg-token-swatch-color` to the semantic color shown by a token swatch.
+- Standalone, semantic, and native busy indicators share a complete circular
+  track with one highlighted quadrant. Busy controls reserve a non-shrinking
+  16px indicator; reduced-motion preferences stop rotation.
+- Disabled choices retain readable labels and use dashed outlines to distinguish
+  their state without relying on faded text. Keep the native `disabled` attribute.
+- Anchor buttons retain the same contrast-safe foreground as button elements.
+  Marketing seals use opaque chrome with inherited text color.
+
+CSS supplies visual states; applications own interaction behavior. The demo adds
+roving keyboard focus for tabs and listbox options, file selection and drop,
+range output, filter chips, pagination, a menu, and a native modal dialog.
+Examples use inert local data and do not upload or delete real documents.
+
+## Preset Isolation
+
+The demo renders preset extras only for their owner. All exclusive regions use
+`data-preset-only` and a shared visibility synchronizer. Changing the style removes
+the prior preset's generated markup; presets with no extras show no extras region.
+This rule applies to all presets, including the Cyberpunk and Retro Glass boards.
+
+## Assets
+
+The demo vendors Lucide 0.468.0 icons in `demo/assets/lucide`, including the upstream
+license. The build generates `demo/demo-icons.js` from those source files so icons
+work offline through either HTML entry point, including `file:` URLs.
+
+The semantic demo settings icon uses a 24px SVG in a stable 44px control across
+presets. Retro Glass feature checks use a heavier SVG stroke inside the medallion.
+
+`npm run build` regenerates the default, visual, focused, and bridge bundles,
+containment foundations, demo icon asset, and README bundle-size metadata.

 For filled service actions, compose `<prefix>-button`, `<prefix>-button-primary`, and `<prefix>-button-cut`. For framed callout actions, compose `<prefix>-button` and `<prefix>-button-outline-heavy`. These modifiers are independent; the library does not expose a `button-cta` class. Carry the same preset identity into service cards, media scrims, feature strips, callout bars, native actions, and dialogs rather than treating each specimen as isolated artwork.
 
+Minimal SaaS and Bento deliberately share semantic roles but not presentation. Minimal SaaS keeps controls near `2.375rem`, uses narrow spacing and flat bordered modules, and reserves theme color for action and state emphasis. Bento uses `2.75rem` controls and `1.5rem` tiles, applies theme-derived primary, accent and secondary washes, and reinforces the mosaic hierarchy with inset highlights and soft shadows. This distinction must remain visible in every theme and mode.
+
+Neumorphism and Tactile also share component roles without sharing material. Neumorphism removes visible keylines and sculpts cards and actions outward from one theme-derived surface while fields, tracks, table cells, and pressed states sink inward through paired light and dark shadows. Tactile keeps a denser paper-workspace rhythm: serif headings sit above compact uppercase labels, framed plates use visible rules and shallow chamfers, actions behave like raised keycaps, and dark troughs hold squared thumbs and segmented progress gauges. Theme channels may recolor both systems, but those geometry, typography, elevation, inset-depth, feedback, and table contracts remain stable.
+
+Retrofuturism uses a mid-century atomic appliance language rather than cyberpunk scanlines or generic neon glass. Light mode reads as bright enamel with softly recessed instrument wells; dark mode reads as deep enamel with stronger recess depth. Both retain nested metallic keylines, rounded equipment housings, condensed display typography, compact uppercase labels, oval mechanical actions, dial-like range thumbs, and segmented jewel-lamp progress. Theme channels recolor the enamel, instruments, actions, and status lamps without changing that material or geometry contract.
+
+Every preset must carry its contract through the same complete role set: buttons, fields, choices, navigation, cards, panels, tables, badges, alerts, tooltips, dialogs, ranges, progress, meters, service cards, feature strips, callouts, loading, disabled, focus and pressed states. The registry and regression suite compare typography, density, geometry, material, feedback and data presentation pairwise; theme changes are expected to alter paint while those structural identity axes remain stable.
+
+The registry also exposes executable reference traits for all six identity axes. Each trait identifies an authored selector, property, and required value fragment, so the tests verify real CSS rather than descriptive metadata. Browser identity checks are split by preset, viewport, mode, and pair to support exact reruns without replaying unrelated passing cases.
+
 Preset-specific grids must size from their own container. Bento feature tiles, for example, use intrinsic columns and only introduce a feature span when their container can support it, preventing metric labels from collapsing into vertical text.

+# Technical Blueprint
+
+The Technical Blueprint preset follows the retained Technical Blueprint element
+boards and design guide: square controls, a 16px construction grid, drafting
+registration marks, calibrated line weights, and restrained semantic ink colors.
+The canonical public prefix is `blueprint-`; source-template `tb-` aliases are
+not exported.
+
+## Theme and Material
+
+Set `data-ui="technical-blueprint"` and `data-mode="light"` or `"dark"` on the
+containing element. Existing `--usk-*` semantic tokens feed the `--blueprint-*`
+aliases, so changing `data-theme` changes color without replacing drafting
+geometry. In the demo, **Use reference palette** selects the guide's fallback
+colors instead of a named color theme. Primary action fill and foreground are
+paired separately from annotation ink for readable labels in both modes.
+
+## Component Surface
+
+The manifest is the authoritative class inventory. Alongside the shared button,
+input, card, table, alert, badge, tooltip, progress, spinner, and switch families,
+Technical Blueprint exports these preset-only components:
+
+- Sheet frame, datum marker, line sample, section title, overline, token swatch.
+- Choice, input wrapper/icon, helper/error text, range, critical range, meter.
+- Dropdown/option, file upload surface, tags, chips and semantic chip variants.
+- Segmented controls, tabs, breadcrumb, pagination and pagination page.
+- Stepper/step, revision progress, toast, skeleton.
+- Avatars and groups, code, quote, list, metric, empty state.
+- Popover, modal/actions, accordion.
+
+`blueprint-page` remains the page shell. Pagination items use
+`blueprint-pagination-page` to avoid changing that existing API.
+
+## Demo and Accessibility
+
+The demo includes all ten reference groups: actions, forms, choices, selects and
+upload, ranges and progress, alerts and loading, navigation, data display,
+overlays, and foundations. Additional code, quote, metric, and empty-state
+examples live in the preset-specific extras section. Every preset-owned demo
+region is hidden when a different preset is selected.
+
+The specimen uses labeled native inputs, named icon buttons, keyboard-operated
+tabs and listboxes, a native dialog, file selection, and live range outputs.
+Sample actions are local demonstrations; they do not upload or delete data.
+CSS alone provides presentation, not dialog/listbox application behavior.
+Controls retain visible focus, disabled-state cues, reduced-motion handling,
+forced-color fallbacks, and 44px touch targets on coarse-pointer devices.
+
+Native date/time formatting, file pickers, font rasterization, and responsive
+reflow follow the browser rather than reproducing static illustration pixels.
+
+## Focused Verification
+
+- `node --test tests/technical-blueprint-template.test.js`
+- `npx playwright test tests/e2e/technical-blueprint-template.spec.js --project=chromium`
+
+The browser checks use the generated bundle, verify all preset-only regions,
+audit both reference modes with axe, and exercise keyboard behavior, token
+overrides, and mobile overflow. Rebuild distribution CSS before browser checks.

@@ -8,13 +8,44 @@ shared scheme channels -> prefixed aliases -> UI rules
 
 `styles/theme-colors.css` defines the active scheme and mode once as `--usk-*` RGB channels. Each UI style maps those shared channels to its public prefix, then component rules consume prefixed functional variables. `styles/native-elements.css` owns native HTML fallback selectors and consumes `--usk-native-*` tokens that each preset maps back to its own public variables.
 
+## Demo palette workbench
+
+The demo starts with **Color Theme: None — style defaults**. This omits `data-theme`
+and displays the selected preset's native light, dark, or contrast palette. All 20
+named color themes remain available; selecting one applies the shared color roles
+without changing component classes or preset geometry.
+
+```js
+document.body.dataset.ui = "minimal-saas";
+document.body.dataset.mode = "light";
+document.body.removeAttribute("data-theme");
+```
+
+The named-theme color table reads 23 shared RGB roles. Native mode reads the preset's
+RGB inventory, including material channels such as paper, ink, brass, and enamel.
+Native exports use `--<prefix>-*-rgb`; named-theme exports use `--usk-*-rgb`.
+Native-palette edits are isolated by preset and mode; named-theme edits are shared
+across presets using the same theme and mode. Native exports are
+scoped to the selected `[data-ui]:not([data-theme])[data-mode]` combination, so they
+do not override a subsequently selected named theme.
+
+Reset a single role or use **Reset palette edits** to restore only the active
+palette. Edits are temporary until reload. Invalid values leave the last valid
+preview intact. Custom colors can reduce contrast; validate edited palettes before
+using them in production. The library's CSS expects `data-theme` to be absent, not
+the literal strings `"None"` or `"null"`; the demo normalizes empty/null selections.
+
 ## Shared semantic token handshake
 
-The existing `[data-ui][data-theme][data-mode]` native-token root publishes 12 fully typed `--ui-*` values. UI Style Kit is the primary producer, but the names are intentionally package-neutral so a third-party theme can produce the same contract. Consumer libraries treat these values as optional fallbacks: a package-specific override wins first, then the shared semantic value, then the consumer's legacy token and literal default.
+The background handshake resolves through `--usk-native-bg`, which each preset
+maps to its functional `--<prefix>-bg`. It therefore follows the actual native
