tegwick 0d688ca94a feat(designbook): technology-neutral IR + stack-adapter pipeline (WHYNOT-WP-0002 T01-T06)
Author the design language once in the canonical React designbook and project it
one-way onto each stack: React -> designbook/ -> ir/ -> adapters/<stack>/.

Phase 0 — contracts & governance (T01-T03):
- ir/SCHEMA.md + ir/schema/{component,tokens}.schema.json — neutral IR contract
  (W3C DTCG tokens; React prop -> HTML attribute mapping; non-portable props flagged).
- adapters/ADAPTER_CONTRACT.md — inputs, drift-report + parity-result shapes,
  idempotency rules, CI exit codes (0 ok / 2 usage / 3 drift / 4 parity / 5 internal).
- .claude/rules/designbook-propagation.md + DesignSystemIntroduction.md §5.1 —
  one-way directionality + drift-resolution workflow.

T04 — canonical React designbook + the missing pull tool:
- The bundled /design-sync skill only PUSHES repo->cloud; it cannot populate
  designbook/. Added scripts/designbook_pull.py + `make designbook-pull`, which drives
  the local claude binary headless (acceptEdits) so DesignSync fetch+write runs in a
  subprocess (contents never hit the orchestrator's context). Pulled 44 files;
  excludes the _whynot-design-seed/ self-copy. Corrected the docs that wrongly called
  /design-sync the pull.

T05 — IR extractor (scripts/ir-extract.mjs + `make ir`):
- ir/tokens.json (80 tokens, DTCG, var() -> {ref} alias resolution); ir/components/*.json
  (10 contracts parsed from .jsx signatures: enum/boolean/number inference, prop->attr
  map, style/callback marked non-portable); ir/exemplars/*.

T06 — Lit token adapter (adapters/lit/ + `make adapt-lit`):
- Full-gen tokens into src/styles/colors_and_type.css :root (marker-bounded, idempotent
  no-op on re-run; hand-authored type CSS preserved).

NOTE: token regen synced Lit to canonical React — fonts IBM Plex -> system stacks and 8
status tokens added. This is a VISUAL change: review and run `pnpm test:visual:update`
before merge. Remaining: T07 scaffold+drift, T08 parity, T09 runbook, T10 2nd-adapter.

Lit reference adapter

Projects the technology-neutral IR (ir/) onto the Lit stack. This is the reference adapter — the contract every stack adapter implements lives in adapters/ADAPTER_CONTRACT.md.

Run it with make adapt-lit (adapters/lit/adapt.mjs).

What it does

Per the contract, an adapter is scaffold + drift-detect, never a rewrite:

Concern Behaviour Status
Tokens Fully generated from ir/tokens.json into the :root block of src/styles/colors_and_type.css, between @generated tokens markers. Deterministic — re-running with an unchanged IR is a byte-identical no-op. The hand-authored type/utility CSS after the block is preserved. done (T06)
New component Generate a <wn-*> Lit stub from the IR contract's prop→attribute map + a behaviour TODO. T07
Changed component Emit a drift report (adapters/lit/drift/<Name>.md) — never overwrite the hand-authored element. T07

Directionality

One-way: React → ir/ → Lit. This adapter is downstream of the IR; it never writes back to ir/ or to the React designbook. A change to the shared language is made in Claude Design and re-propagated (make designbook-pull && make ir && make adapt-lit). See .claude/rules/designbook-propagation.md.

Token regeneration is a visual change

Because tokens are fully generated, regenerating them can change rendered appearance when the canonical React designbook has moved (e.g. a font-stack or colour change). That makes the Playwright baselines diverge by design — it is a human review point, not an error:

make adapt-lit          # regenerates tokens
pnpm test:visual        # will fail where appearance changed
# review the change, then if correct:
pnpm test:visual:update # accept new baselines

Never run test:visual:update to silence a token change without reviewing it — that defeats the parity gate (T08).

Exit codes

0 ok · 2 usage/config · 3 drift detected · 4 parity failure · 5 internal.
