Nerio Core 0.1.0-alpha.2

Added

• Added a machine-validated preparation plan and evidence record for the manual Core 1.0
  accessibility and real-device audit. The plan fixes the required VoiceOver, NVDA, TalkBack,
  physical-device, zoom/reflow, reduced-motion, contrast, native-control, component-family, and
  runtime-axis scenarios without representing automated coverage as human evidence.
• Added the client-only Base UI Toggle for one independent retained button state, with controlled
  and uncontrolled pressed state, stable accessible naming, icon-only and visible-label content,
  ghost and outline variants, three control sizes, render composition, tokens, Registry, CLI/MCP,
  docs, source-install, accessibility, and cross-browser coverage. ToggleGroup, Toolbar, grouped
  selection, form-field semantics, persistence, and product policy remain outside this primitive.
  Existing retained-state Buttons now reuse Toggle for balance visibility and deterministic loading
  modes in the Finance & Assets, Content Library, and AI Research Workspace templates; grouped and
  disclosure controls remain on their existing semantics.
  The raw token CSS budget moves from 70,000 to 72,000 bytes for the component token contract; the
  measured stylesheet grows by 2,149 bytes to 71,355 bytes while remaining below the existing
  11,000-byte gzip budget.
• Added a metadata-driven catalog of ten bounded product Blocks at /blocks, with same-origin
  full-screen previews at /views/blocks/[slug], canonical detail metadata, responsive and
  accessible task-focused examples, and explicit product boundaries. The previous broad settings
  composition was split into profile, security, and notification Blocks; profile, empty-state, and
  feedback galleries were simplified around recognizable tasks; valuable overlay, navigation,
  feedback-family, and dense-form stress coverage moved to unindexed internal fixtures.
• Added an immutable, release-versioned Registry contract and a portable nerio.lock.json source
  record with exact revision, style contract, dependency closure, installed paths, and original
  hashes. Added nerio diff, deterministic nerio update --dry-run, safe source updates,
  conflict-preserving normal updates, explicit force replacement, expanded doctor diagnostics,
  MCP Registry metadata, migration fixtures, and packed-consumer verification. The CLI tarball
  budget moves from 8,000 to 12,000 bytes for this lifecycle contract; the measured tarball is
  10,224 bytes and the unpacked budget remains unchanged.
• Added the client-only single-date DatePicker composed from Calendar and an anchored Base UI
  Popover, with timezone-safe ISO values, controlled and uncontrolled value/open state, localized
  display, min/max and disabled-date constraints, form submission/reset/required behavior, optional
  clear, focus transfer/restoration, Registry, CLI/MCP, docs, source-install, accessibility, and
  cross-browser coverage. Ranges, parsing, presets, time zones, scheduling, availability,
  recurrence, and product shortcuts remain outside Core.
• Added the client-only single-date Calendar with timezone-safe ISO values, controlled and
  uncontrolled selection and visible-month state, roving grid focus, locale-aware labels,
  localized selected-date context, configurable week starts, min/max and disabled-date constraints,
  Registry, CLI/MCP, docs, package/source-install, accessibility, and cross-browser coverage.
  DatePicker, date ranges, scheduling, availability, events, recurrence, time, and timezone
  workflows remain outside this primitive.
• Added the server-safe native FileInput with typed file-only props, forwarded ref and FileList
  events, single or multiple selection, native form/reset behavior, tokenized file-button states,
  Registry, CLI/MCP, docs, package/source-install, accessibility, and cross-browser coverage. Upload,
  drop-zone, preview, validation-workflow, progress, retry, queue, and storage behavior remain outside
  Core.
• Added the client-only single-value Slider with Base UI keyboard, pointer, touch, form, orientation,
  read-only, localized value-text, token, Registry, CLI/MCP, docs, source-install, and browser
  contracts. Existing native range usage can migrate to Slider when a tokenized cross-browser
  presentation adds value; multi-thumb ranges and product-specific scale behavior remain outside Core.
• Added native date, month, week, time, and datetime-local coverage to the server-safe
  Input contract while preserving browser-owned pickers, localized chrome, validity, value, and
  form-submission behavior.
• Added the canonical Core 1.0 platform-primitive coverage matrix, approved bounded follow-up
  identities for Slider, FileInput, Calendar, and DatePicker, and catalog drift validation for the
  native/component/deferred boundary.
• Added deterministic Core visual-regression fixtures, cross-axis screenshot baselines, CI diff artifacts, and an explicit maintainer approval workflow.
• Added Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit interaction gates for docs and demo, an explicit platform
  support policy, deterministic route/search performance checks, retry/failure artifacts, and
  enforced package, CSS, named-import, icon, and optional-adapter budgets.

Changed

• Split pull-request automation into a fast, scope-aware development gate for working branches and
  a parallel full release-candidate gate for dev -> main. Development runtime changes receive a
  focused Chromium smoke while Firefox, WebKit, complete visual, tool, package, packed-consumer, and
  manual-audit contracts remain mandatory at the release boundary.
• Refined the Core component presentation contracts from Playground review: ButtonGroup is now
  horizontal-only with short decorative dividers; FileInput uses a compact upload icon; Checkbox,
  Slider, Calendar, DatePicker, Badge, FormGroup, Pagination, Sidebar, and Command states have
  corrected visual treatment; Dropdown Menu items support leading and trailing icons plus hotkeys;
  List supports dot, number, dash, and icon markers; Separator supports both orientations; and docs
  avatar previews use a shared representative image set.
• Gated Blocks, Templates, their full-screen Views, and the visual Playground behind
  NERIO_SHOW_PREVIEW_SURFACES. They remain available by default in local and preview deployments
  while public production hides their navigation, search entries, sitemap and llms.txt discovery,
  redirects, and direct routes until launch.
• Added Support Desk as a docs-local Template with saved inbox views, dense ticket selection,
  desktop split view, mobile drill-in, localized conversations, assignment and status controls,
  customer context, reply validation and feedback, complete queue states, runtime-axis inspection,
  and focused browser and visual evidence. It does not add a CRM backend, email delivery,
  persistence, permissions, or Core API.
• Added Developer Portal as a docs-local Template with a developer landing, deep navigation,
  keyboard-accessible documentation search, quickstart examples, API request and response states,
  versioned changelog, responsive navigation, runtime-axis inspection, and focused browser and
  visual evidence. It remains distinct from the Nerio docs application and does not add a docs
  backend, live API, SDK, persistence, or Core API.
• Added AI Research Workspace as a docs-local Template with an evidence-grounded conversation,
  inspectable citations, local attachments, deterministic running, completed, interrupted, failed,
  and retry tool states, searchable saved threads, responsive navigation, runtime-axis inspection,
  and focused browser and visual evidence. It does not add a model API, streaming backend, remote
  files, persistence, or Core API.
• Added Content Library as a docs-local Template with a media-first library overview, desktop grid
  and mobile list, search and filters, bounded multi-selection, local preview and metadata editing,
  complete import queue states, responsive navigation, runtime-axis inspection, and focused browser
  and visual evidence. It uses deterministic CSS artwork and metadata without adding remote media,
  uploads, persistence, a DAM backend, or Core API.
• Added Finance & Assets as a second docs-local Template with a consolidated portfolio overview,
  searchable holdings and asset detail, semantic transaction states, a validated local transfer
  flow, responsive navigation, sensitive-value controls, runtime-axis inspection, and focused
  browser and visual evidence. It uses deterministic data and the existing charts adapter without
  adding a backend, remote market data, or Core API.
• Moved the Operations Workspace showcase into a metadata-driven docs-local Template architecture.
  /templates, /templates/operations-workspace, and /views/operations-workspace now share one
  catalog and one docs deployment; the standalone demo application, external demo URL, port 3002,
  duplicate appearance runtime, and separate browser build were retired. Existing runtime-axis,
  responsive, accessibility, performance, and product-state coverage now runs against the
  same-origin full-screen View.
• Stabilized the optional @nerio-ui/adapters/motion Core 1.0 contract. Runtime exports,
  transition and variant values, package/source parity, reduced-motion updates, SSR/hydration, and
  bundle isolation are snapshot- or fixture-protected. NerioMotionConfig now accepts only
  children, CSP nonce, and deterministic-test skipAnimations; alpha passthrough options such
  as global transition, isValidProp, isStatic, and transformPagePoint move to consumer-owned
  Motion composition.
• Standardized public package, Registry CLI, and MCP onboarding around version-aligned local
  installs, pnpm exec bins, and package-qualified pnpm dlx one-off execution. Active docs,
  component install blocks, README, llms.txt, CLI help, and release guidance now share one
  validated command contract. Clean-consumer release smoke executes the documented CLI lifecycle
  and packaged MCP bin, while MCP server version metadata derives from the coordinated package.
• Redesigned the public documentation, component Playground, and universal workspace demo around
  the approved Visual Language 1.0; added explicit Core/Pro and alpha boundaries, standardized
  component installation and decision guidance, compact mobile navigation, realistic Core states,
  and synchronized search, sitemap, README, and AI-readable discovery.
• Added the optional @nerio-ui/adapters/motion client entrypoint with typed token-aligned
  transitions and variants, user-preference reduced motion, strict LazyMotion guidance,
  source-install metadata, and measured zero-runtime isolation for non-adopters.
• Implemented the approved Nerio 1.0 visual foundation with cool alpha-neutral layers, pure
  white/black foundations, role-based soft geometry, calm shared motion, inverted overlay-glass
  aliases, calculated contrast validation, and a public visual-language reference.
• Applied the approved visual language to Navigation, Layout, and Overlays: neutral navigation
  states, soft selected Tabs elevation, tokenized hover motion, compact popup geometry, inverted
  dark-glass layers, blurred modal backdrops, directional Sheet motion, secondary close controls,
  and inline-end modal action footers.
• Applied the approved visual language to Data Display and Feedback: compact medium-weight
  hierarchy, borderless Card and muted table grouping, fixed Avatar overlap colors, neutral
  inline Alerts, inverted glass Toasts, deliberate status color, and tokenized interaction motion.
• Made Table body cells wrap text by default while retaining explicit consumer control for bounded
  identifiers and intentionally non-wrapping values.
• Refined Table's neutral product-table recipe with a borderless 4px container gutter, compensated
  20px/16px outer and row-group radii, clipped tbody content, short tokenized header dividers,
  neutral selected-row boundaries, and a focused set of interactive documentation
  previews composed from Nerio Checkbox, Button, Icon, and Pagination components; the complete
  preview now keeps its footer inside the muted shell, uses a full-row drag image, and removes the
  selected row's lower divider without changing its geometry. Added Secondary-only per-row rounded
  interaction surfaces that round only on hover in Secondary, vertically centered cells, stable
  inline Checkbox alignment, a composed EmptyState example with icon, comfortable spacing, and a
  secondary create action on a transparent non-row surface without hover treatment, a four-row
  loading preview, and intentional sans/code
  typography. Unified all data headers as neutral sortable controls with trailing direction arrows,
  removed the select-all leading divider, and refined reordering with a dedicated floating row clone,
  insertion cue, selection suppression, and concise Reorder tooltip. Documented faithful Primary (unified muted body)
  and Secondary (open page-level rows) presentation recipes without moving DataGrid behavior into
  the Core primitive.
• Aligned Pagination with Button's secondary presentation recipe: secondary controls by default and
  a secondary-active surface for the current page, while retaining stable geometry and
  aria-current state.
• Added a localizable Dialog.closeLabel while preserving the existing "Close dialog" default.

Fixed

• Protected Navigation, Sidebar, Command, Dialog, and Sheet anatomy/state ownership from escaped
  consumer DOM props and synchronized their docs and Registry projections with the shipped APIs.

Migration

• ButtonGroup no longer accepts orientation="vertical" and no longer exports
  ButtonGroupOrientation. Replace a vertical ButtonGroup with application-owned stack layout and
  independent Buttons; the attached ButtonGroup contract is horizontal-only.
