The grid maps Nielsen's 10 GUI elements to what actually exists per stack,
and records the deferred clusters (GitHubMirrorScreen x5, SettingsScreen x6,
~20 list tiles, filter sheets) with repo, path and line count so none of it
needs rediscovering.
It also records three corrections the measurement turned up, because each
one changes what is worth doing next:
- The "343 raw color literals" are not spread through call sites; they are
concentrated in the hand-copied theme files. todo had 35, all 35 inside
theme.dart. Seven repos have zero literals outside their token file, so
deleting it removes essentially all of them. The repos with genuine
call-site leakage are billsplit, epopeja_karta and focus_owner.
- There are 4 AppStatusColors, not 5, and they disagree about their own
field sets; the package's version is a superset so nobody loses a field.
- There are 3 section headers, not 5, and no _SectionLabel exists.
epopeja_karta's is a different element (an eyebrow, not a section title)
and was deliberately left out rather than force-fitted.
Also records that workout_app, cited as a consumer in the plan and in
several skill docs, does not exist on disk.

gatelock v0.3.0. Every change here works around a Tk *default*, not an
application mistake -- which is why they belong in the shared backend rather
than being fixed four times.
On a lock surface these are not accessibility niceties. The lockers hold a
global input grab with VT switching disabled, so a control the keyboard cannot
reach, or a button clipped off the bottom of the screen, is a bricked machine.
LockConfig gains a type scale, a spacing scale and a focus-ring token:
- font() applies Tk's sign convention. Tk encodes the unit in the SIGN of the
font size -- positive is points, negative is pixels -- so passing the
design system's px values straight through rendered every string ~30%
oversized (measured: body at 16pt has a 26px linespace where 16px gives 20).
That alone pushed diet_guard's meal gate to 866px of content inside a 739px
pane on a 1366x768 screen.
- focus_kwargs() sets highlightcolor, the *focused* ring. Tk's default is a 1px
BLACK ring, invisible against the palette's #211D1B background. Note
highlightbackground is the UNfocused ring: setting only that one inverts the
affordance, which is what diet_guard was doing.
_keyboard.py collects three Tk defaults that each make a form unusable:
- tk.Text traps Tab (inserts a literal tab and refocuses itself) and no-ops
Shift-Tab; the only exits are the undocumented Ctrl+Tab / Ctrl+Shift+Tab.
- tk.Button binds <space> on X11 but never <Return>, so the key a user reaches
for to submit does nothing.
- Escape needs binding at the toplevel to work wherever focus happens to sit.
_scrollable.py adds ScrollableSurface, a viewport that content can actually be
reached in:
- A place()-centred frame takes its *requested* size and is clipped
SYMMETRICALLY, so overflow removes the heading and the submit button at the
same time, with no scrollbar and no hint anything is missing.
- A bare tk.Canvas has no class key bindings, so ::tk::FocusOK rejects it as a
focus stop and the only way to scroll is dragging the thumb with a pointer.
- Canvas clipping does not unmap children, so scrolled-out fields stay in the
tab ring while Tk never scrolls to follow focus -- Tab lands on fields the
user can neither see nor reveal.
- A Canvas holds content in a canvas *item*, so it never propagates the
content's requested size; a toplevel told to size itself has nothing to grow
to. _request_content_size() fixes that, clamped to the display.
center_when_fits keeps short screens looking exactly as they did, so the
viewport can replace a centred frame without a visual change.
A scrollable dialog Toplevel is deliberately NOT the mechanism: on an
override-redirect lock surface a second toplevel steals the Tk grab, which the
recovery tick then kills -- the 2026-07-26 failure where a frozen sport
selector logged a walk as table tennis.
unified-design-system gains the two rule families this implements (pointer-free
operability, 1366x768 usable / 1024x600 graceful), a focus-ring token, and the
px/pt sign convention written down so it cannot recur.

Moves the design-system rules, frozen token table, and annotated
component references out of ~/.claude/skills/ and the two Claude
Artifacts into a proper subdir here, matching the existing
gatelock/crdt-sync/guard-lib pattern of one-subdir-per-shared-library.
