+## Design Principles
+
+### Core Values
+1. **Dark-First Design**: Optimized for extended viewing sessions with reduced eye strain
+2. **Information Hierarchy**: Critical data accessible within 5 seconds
+3. **Premium Aesthetic**: Modern, sleek, professional appearance
+4. **Depth & Dimension**: Glassmorphism and elevation for spatial clarity
+5. **Purposeful Motion**: Smooth, meaningful animations that enhance UX
+6. **Developer-Focused**: Clear visual feedback for complex AI workflows
+
+### Visual Philosophy
+- Use depth (shadows, blur) to establish hierarchy
+- Limit color to convey meaning (status, type, interaction)
+- Embrace negative space for breathing room
+- Maintain consistent rhythm through spacing
+- Prioritize readability over decoration

+
+## Spacing System
+
+### Base Scale (8px grid)
+
+```css
+--spacing-0: 0;
+--spacing-0-5: 2px;     /* 0.125rem - Hairline spacing */
+--spacing-1: 4px;       /* 0.25rem */

+--spacing-56: 224px;    /* 14rem */
+--spacing-64: 256px;    /* 16rem */
+```
+
+### Semantic Spacing Tokens
+
+```css
+/* Component Internal Spacing */
+--space-component-xs: var(--spacing-2);    /* 8px - Tight internal spacing */
+--space-component-sm: var(--spacing-3);    /* 12px - Small components */
+--space-component-md: var(--spacing-4);    /* 16px - Default component padding */
+--space-component-lg: var(--spacing-6);    /* 24px - Large components */
+--space-component-xl: var(--spacing-8);    /* 32px - Extra large components */
+
+/* Layout Spacing */
+--space-layout-xs: var(--spacing-4);       /* 16px - Minimal section spacing */
+--space-layout-sm: var(--spacing-6);       /* 24px - Small section spacing */
+--space-layout-md: var(--spacing-8);       /* 32px - Default section spacing */
+--space-layout-lg: var(--spacing-12);      /* 48px - Large section spacing */
+--space-layout-xl: var(--spacing-16);      /* 64px - Extra large section spacing */
+--space-layout-2xl: var(--spacing-24);     /* 96px - Maximum section spacing */
+
+/* Gap Spacing (for flexbox/grid) */
+--gap-xs: var(--spacing-1);                /* 4px */
+--gap-sm: var(--spacing-2);                /* 8px */
+--gap-md: var(--spacing-3);                /* 12px */
+--gap-lg: var(--spacing-4);                /* 16px */
+--gap-xl: var(--spacing-6);                /* 24px */
+```
+
+### Usage Guidelines
+
+- Use 8px base grid for all spacing decisions
+- Prefer semantic tokens over raw values
+- Maintain consistent rhythm vertically and horizontally
+- Use larger spacing for separation, smaller for grouping
+- Desktop layouts: favor `--space-layout-md` and above
+- Mobile layouts: favor `--space-component-*` tokens
+

+
+## Shadows & Elevation
+
+### Shadow Scale
+
+```css
+/* Subtle shadows for minimal elevation */
+--shadow-xs: 0 1px 2px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
+
+/* Small elevation - buttons, cards at rest */
+--shadow-sm: 0 2px 4px -1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5),
+             0 1px 2px -1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);
+
+/* Medium elevation - dropdowns, popovers */
+--shadow-md: 0 4px 6px -1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6),
+             0 2px 4px -1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
+
+/* Large elevation - modals, floating panels */
+--shadow-lg: 0 10px 15px -3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7),
+             0 4px 6px -2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
+
+/* Extra large elevation - important overlays */
+--shadow-xl: 0 20px 25px -5px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8),
+             0 10px 10px -5px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6);
+
+/* 2XL elevation - critical modals, focus states */
+--shadow-2xl: 0 25px 50px -12px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.9);
+```
+
+### Glow Effects (for focus, active states)
+
+```css
+--shadow-glow-primary: 0 0 0 3px rgba(99, 102, 241, 0.3);
+--shadow-glow-secondary: 0 0 0 3px rgba(217, 70, 239, 0.3);
+--shadow-glow-success: 0 0 0 3px rgba(16, 185, 129, 0.3);
+--shadow-glow-error: 0 0 0 3px rgba(239, 68, 68, 0.3);
+--shadow-glow-warning: 0 0 0 3px rgba(245, 158, 11, 0.3);
+```
+
+### Inner Shadows (for inset, pressed states)
+
+```css
+--shadow-inner: inset 0 2px 4px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
+--shadow-inner-lg: inset 0 4px 8px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6);
+```
+
+### Elevation Levels
+
+Use elevation to establish visual hierarchy:
+
+1. **Level 0** (Baseline): Background, canvas - no shadow
+2. **Level 1** (Subtle): `--shadow-xs` - Cards at rest, subtle separation
+3. **Level 2** (Raised): `--shadow-sm` - Buttons, interactive elements
+4. **Level 3** (Floating): `--shadow-md` - Dropdowns, tooltips, suggestions
+5. **Level 4** (Overlay): `--shadow-lg` - Modals, sheets, detail windows
+6. **Level 5** (Priority): `--shadow-xl` - Critical dialogs, important notifications
+7. **Level 6** (Maximum): `--shadow-2xl` - Alerts requiring immediate attention

+## Motion & Transitions
+
+### Duration
+
+```css
+--duration-instant: 0ms;
+--duration-fast: 100ms;          /* Micro-interactions, hovers */
+--duration-normal: 200ms;        /* Default transitions */
+--duration-slow: 300ms;          /* Complex state changes */
+--duration-slower: 400ms;        /* Page transitions, reveals */
+--duration-slowest: 500ms;       /* Dramatic effects */
+```
+
+### Easing Functions
+
+```css
+/* Standard ease curves */
+--ease-linear: linear;
+--ease-in: cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 1, 1);
+--ease-out: cubic-bezier(0, 0, 0.2, 1);
+--ease-in-out: cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1);
+
+/* Custom curves for premium feel */
+--ease-smooth: cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.6, 1);           /* Smooth, natural */
+--ease-bounce: cubic-bezier(0.68, -0.55, 0.265, 1.55); /* Playful bounce */
+--ease-elastic: cubic-bezier(0.175, 0.885, 0.32, 1.275); /* Elastic snap */
+--ease-sharp: cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.6, 1);            /* Sharp, decisive */
+```
+
+### Common Transitions
+
+```css
+--transition-colors: color var(--duration-fast) var(--ease-smooth),
+                     background-color var(--duration-fast) var(--ease-smooth),
+                     border-color var(--duration-fast) var(--ease-smooth);
+
+--transition-opacity: opacity var(--duration-normal) var(--ease-out);
+
+--transition-transform: transform var(--duration-normal) var(--ease-smooth);
+
+--transition-shadow: box-shadow var(--duration-normal) var(--ease-out);
+
+--transition-all: all var(--duration-normal) var(--ease-smooth);
+
+--transition-base: var(--duration-normal) var(--ease-smooth);
+```
+
+### Animation Guidelines
+
+1. **Hover States**: Use `--duration-fast` with `--ease-smooth`
+2. **Focus States**: Use `--duration-normal` with `--ease-out`
+3. **Loading States**: Use `--duration-slow` with `--ease-linear`
+4. **Page Transitions**: Use `--duration-slower` with `--ease-in-out`
+5. **Micro-interactions**: Keep under 200ms for responsiveness
+6. **Respect prefers-reduced-motion**: Disable animations for accessibility
+
+```css
+@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce) {
+  * {
+    animation-duration: 0.01ms !important;
+    animation-iteration-count: 1 !important;
+    transition-duration: 0.01ms !important;
+  }
+}

+    var(--color-border-subtle) 1px,
+    transparent 1px
+  );
+  background-size: 20px 20px;
+}
+
+/* Alternative: Grid pattern */
+.react-flow__background.grid {
+  background-image:
+    linear-gradient(var(--color-border-subtle) 1px, transparent 1px),
+    linear-gradient(90deg, var(--color-border-subtle) 1px, transparent 1px);
+  background-size: 20px 20px;
+}
+```
+
+### MiniMap Styling
+
+```css
+.react-flow__minimap {
+  background: var(--color-bg-surface);
+  border: var(--border-default);
+  border-radius: var(--radius-lg);
+  box-shadow: var(--shadow-md);
+}
+
+.react-flow__minimap-mask {
+  fill: var(--color-primary-500);
+  fill-opacity: 0.1;
+  stroke: var(--color-primary-500);
+  stroke-width: 2;
+}
+
+.react-flow__minimap-node {
+  fill: var(--color-bg-overlay);
+  stroke: var(--color-border-default);
+  stroke-width: 1;
+}
+```
+
+### Controls & Panels
+
+```css
+.react-flow__controls {
+  background: var(--color-bg-surface);
+  border: var(--border-subtle);
+  border-radius: var(--radius-lg);
+  box-shadow: var(--shadow-md);
+}
+
+.react-flow__controls-button {
+  background: transparent;
+  border-bottom: var(--border-subtle);
+  color: var(--color-text-secondary);
+  transition: var(--transition-colors);
+}
+
+.react-flow__controls-button:hover {
+  background: var(--color-bg-overlay);
+  color: var(--color-text-primary);
+}
+
+.react-flow__controls-button:last-child {
+  border-bottom: none;
+}
+```
+

+
+## Usage Guidelines
+
+### Color Usage
+
+1. **Backgrounds**
+   - Use `--color-bg-base` for app shell and canvas
+   - Use `--color-bg-elevated` for main content areas
+   - Use `--color-bg-surface` for cards and panels
+   - Use `--color-bg-overlay` for modals and floating elements
+
+2. **Text**
+   - Use `--color-text-primary` for headings and important content
+   - Use `--color-text-secondary` for body text and labels
+   - Use `--color-text-tertiary` for captions and metadata
+   - Use `--color-text-muted` for placeholders and disabled states
+
+3. **Interactive Elements**
+   - Use `--color-primary-*` for primary actions (CTAs, selections)
+   - Use `--color-secondary-*` for secondary actions
+   - Use semantic colors (`success`, `error`, `warning`, `info`) for status
+
+4. **Borders**
+   - Use `--color-border-subtle` for minimal separation
+   - Use `--color-border-default` for standard borders
+   - Use `--color-border-strong` for emphasized boundaries
+
+### Typography Usage
+
+1. **Hierarchy**
+   - Use `h1` for page titles (rare, one per page)
+   - Use `h2` for section headings
+   - Use `h3` for subsection headings
+   - Use `h4-h6` for nested content hierarchy
+
+2. **Body Text**
+   - Use `--font-size-body` (16px) for main content
+   - Use `--font-size-body-sm` (14px) for UI elements
+   - Use `--font-size-caption` (12px) for metadata
+
+3. **Monospace**
+   - Use for code blocks, file paths, technical data
+   - Maintain readability with adequate line-height
+
+### Spacing Usage
+
+1. **Component Spacing**
+   - Use `--space-component-*` tokens for padding within components
+   - Maintain consistent internal rhythm
+
+2. **Layout Spacing**
+   - Use `--space-layout-*` tokens for margins between sections
+   - Larger spacing creates stronger separation
+
+3. **Gap Spacing**
+   - Use `--gap-*` tokens for flexbox/grid gaps
+   - Smaller gaps for related items, larger for distinct groups
+
+### Accessibility Best Practices
+
+1. **Color Contrast**
+   - All text meets WCAG AA standards (4.5:1 minimum)
+   - Interactive elements have 3:1 contrast with background
+
+2. **Focus States**
+   - Always provide visible focus indicators
+   - Use `--shadow-glow-*` for focus shadows
+   - Never remove outlines without replacement
+
+3. **Motion**
+   - Respect `prefers-reduced-motion` media query
+   - Keep animations purposeful and brief
+   - Avoid flashing or rapid motion
+
+4. **Touch Targets**
+   - Minimum 44x44px for interactive elements
+   - Provide adequate spacing between touch targets
+
+5. **Semantic HTML**
+   - Use proper heading hierarchy
+   - Use buttons for actions, links for navigation
+   - Provide ARIA labels where needed

+## Code Examples
+
+### Setting Up CSS Variables
+
+```css
+/* styles/tokens.css */
+:root {
+  /* Import all design tokens */
+
+  /* Colors */
+  --color-bg-base: #0a0a0b;
+  --color-bg-elevated: #121214;
+  --color-bg-surface: #1a1a1e;
+
+  --color-text-primary: #f8fafc;
+  --color-text-secondary: #cbd5e1;
+
+  --color-primary-500: #6366f1;
+  --color-primary-600: #4f46e5;
+
+  /* ... all other tokens ... */
+
+  /* Typography */
+  --font-family-sans: 'Inter', -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, sans-serif;
+  --font-size-body: 16px;
+  --font-weight-regular: 400;
+  --line-height-normal: 1.5;
+
+  /* Spacing */
+  --spacing-2: 8px;
+  --spacing-4: 16px;
+  --spacing-6: 24px;
+
+  /* Shadows */
+  --shadow-sm: 0 2px 4px -1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
+  --shadow-md: 0 4px 6px -1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6);
+
+  /* Transitions */
+  --duration-fast: 100ms;
+  --duration-normal: 200ms;
+  --ease-smooth: cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.6, 1);
+}
+```
+
+### Applying to Components (React/TypeScript)
+
+```typescript
+// components/Button.tsx
+import React from 'react';
+import './Button.css';
+
+interface ButtonProps {
+  variant?: 'primary' | 'secondary' | 'ghost' | 'danger';
+  size?: 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg';
+  children: React.ReactNode;
+  onClick?: () => void;
+  disabled?: boolean;
+}
+
+export const Button: React.FC<ButtonProps> = ({
+  variant = 'primary',
+  size = 'md',
+  children,
+  onClick,
+  disabled,
+}) => {
+  return (
+    <button
+      className={`button button-${variant} button-${size}`}
+      onClick={onClick}
+      disabled={disabled}
+    >
+      {children}
+    </button>
+  );
+};
+```
+
+```css
+/* components/Button.css */
+.button {
+  /* Base styles using design tokens */
+  font-family: var(--font-family-sans);
+  font-weight: var(--font-weight-semibold);
+  border-radius: var(--radius-md);
+  border: none;
+  cursor: pointer;
+  transition: var(--transition-colors), var(--transition-shadow);
+
+  /* Prevent text selection */
+  user-select: none;
+}
+
+/* Size variants */
+.button-sm {
+  padding: var(--spacing-1-5) var(--spacing-3);
+  font-size: var(--font-size-caption);
+}
+
+.button-md {
+  padding: var(--space-component-sm) var(--space-component-lg);
+  font-size: var(--font-size-body-sm);
+}
+
+.button-lg {
+  padding: var(--space-component-md) var(--space-component-xl);
+  font-size: var(--font-size-body);
+}
+
+/* Variant styles */
+.button-primary {
+  background: var(--color-primary-500);
+  color: var(--color-text-on-primary);
+  box-shadow: var(--shadow-sm);
+}
+
+.button-primary:hover:not(:disabled) {
+  background: var(--color-primary-600);
+  box-shadow: var(--shadow-md);
+}
+
+.button-primary:active:not(:disabled) {
+  background: var(--color-primary-700);
+  transform: translateY(1px);
+}
+
+.button-primary:focus-visible {
+  outline: none;
+  box-shadow: var(--shadow-glow-primary);
+}
+
+.button:disabled {
+  opacity: 0.5;
+  cursor: not-allowed;
+}
+```
+
+### Using with Inline Styles (Current Approach)
+
+```typescript
+// For components that currently use inline styles
+const AgentNode: React.FC<NodeProps> = ({ data, selected }) => {
+  return (
+    <div
+      style={{
+        // Use CSS variables in inline styles
+        padding: 'var(--space-component-md)',
+        border: `var(--border-width-2) solid ${
+          selected
+            ? 'var(--color-node-agent-border-selected)'
+            : 'var(--color-node-agent-border)'
+        }`,
+        borderRadius: 'var(--radius-lg)',
+        backgroundColor: 'var(--color-node-agent-bg)',
+        minWidth: '180px',
+        boxShadow: selected
+          ? 'var(--shadow-lg)'
+          : 'var(--shadow-sm)',
+        cursor: 'pointer',
+        transition: 'var(--transition-shadow), var(--transition-colors)',
+      }}
+    >
+      {/* Content */}
+    </div>
+  );
+};
+```
+
+### Graph Component Example
+
+```typescript
+// components/graph/GraphCanvas.tsx
+import { ReactFlow, Background, Controls, MiniMap } from '@xyflow/react';
+import '@xyflow/react/dist/style.css';
+import './GraphCanvas.css';
+
+export const GraphCanvas = () => {
+  return (
+    <div className="graph-container">
+      <ReactFlow
+        /* ... props ... */
+      >
+        <Background
+          variant="dots"
+          gap={20}
+          size={1}
+          color="var(--color-border-subtle)"
+        />
+        <Controls />
+        <MiniMap
+          nodeColor={(node) => {
+            if (node.type === 'agent') return 'var(--color-node-agent-border)';
+            if (node.type === 'message') return 'var(--color-node-message-border)';
+            return 'var(--color-border-default)';
+          }}
+        />
+      </ReactFlow>
+    </div>
+  );
+};
+```
+
+```css
+/* components/graph/GraphCanvas.css */
+.graph-container {
+  width: 100%;
+  height: 100%;
+  background: var(--color-bg-elevated);
+}
+
+/* Override ReactFlow defaults with our design tokens */
+.react-flow {
+  background: var(--color-bg-elevated);
+}
+
+.react-flow__node {
+  font-family: var(--font-family-sans);
+}
+
+.react-flow__edge-path {
+  stroke: var(--color-edge-default);
+  stroke-width: 2;
+  transition: stroke var(--duration-fast) var(--ease-smooth);
+}
+
+.react-flow__edge:hover .react-flow__edge-path {
+  stroke: var(--color-edge-active);
+}
+
+.react-flow__handle {
+  width: 8px;
+  height: 8px;
+  background: var(--color-primary-500);
+  border: 2px solid var(--color-bg-elevated);
+}
+
+.react-flow__handle:hover {
+  background: var(--color-primary-400);
+}
+```
+
+### Modal Example with Glassmorphism
+
+```typescript
+// components/Modal.tsx
+import React from 'react';
+import './Modal.css';
+
+interface ModalProps {
+  isOpen: boolean;
+  onClose: () => void;
+  title: string;
+  children: React.ReactNode;
+}
+
+export const Modal: React.FC<ModalProps> = ({
+  isOpen,
+  onClose,
+  title,
+  children
+}) => {
+  if (!isOpen) return null;
+
+  return (
+    <div className="modal-backdrop" onClick={onClose}>
+      <div className="modal" onClick={(e) => e.stopPropagation()}>
+        <div className="modal-header">
+          <h3 className="modal-title">{title}</h3>
+          <button className="modal-close" onClick={onClose}>
+            ×
+          </button>
+        </div>
+        <div className="modal-body">
+          {children}
+        </div>
+      </div>
+    </div>
+  );
+};
+```
