* feat(design-system): Liquid Glass redesign portfolio — foundation + primitive kit + Layout shell Operator-requested epic to migrate the UI from the current "warm panel + side-highlight + heavy gradient" visual language to a Liquid Glass aesthetic that retains Deck Hearth's fireplace warmth as accent / gradient / motion (not as panel fill). This squash carries the full 8-convoy portfolio drive-through; 5 sub-convoys reach merged state, 3 land architecture-only and queue impl for follow-up turns gated on dedicated visual-diff baseline re-seeds. Sub-convoy #1 (liquid-glass-design-tokens) — MERGED. 29 CSS custom properties: glass-surface {low,mid,high} alpha ramp + blur/saturate + rim-light (inner/outer) + ember-rim (subtle/pronounced; RGB triple) + 3-tier elevation + modal-scrim, both light + dark themes with eye-perception-corrected alphas; @supports not (backdrop-filter) fallback collapsing surfaces toward solid (preserves ramp ordering). Authored docs/DESIGN_TOKENS.md (270 LOC reference with WCAG AA contrast tables, composite recipes, when-NOT-to-use-glass guidance, per-card grid GPU budget). AGENTS.md gains a § Visual language section as the new agent-contract surface. Sub-convoy #2 (liquid-glass-modal-and-surface-primitive) — Brief 1 MERGED. Adds <GlassSurface> (forwardRef composable; tint / rim / elevation / blur props) and <Modal> primitive (focus-trap, ESC + backdrop close, body-scroll lock, ARIA dialog shape, built-in close button) consuming the token surface. lib/use-focus-trap.js — homegrown hook (~60 LOC, no dep). 10 new vitest cases covering open/close render, ARIA, ESC + closeOnEsc gate, backdrop gate, hideCloseButton, body-scroll lock + restore. 4 reference modal migrations as proof-of-pattern: ShareModal, CollectionDeleteModal, CollectionsCreateModal, CardDetailQuantityModal. Brief 2 (11 remaining modals) queued; CI grandfather list locks the pattern in. Sub-convoy #3 (liquid-glass-form-primitives) — Brief 1 MERGED. Adds <Button> (primary ember-gradient with ember-rim-pronounced; secondary glass-mid; danger; ghost), <Input> (glass-high with ember focus ring + label + helperText + error + aria-invalid + describedby wiring + leadingIcon decorative + trailingAction interactive), <SearchBar> (composes Input with leading search icon + conditional clear button). 10 new vitest cases. pages/login.js + pages/signup.js fully migrated — 2 submit buttons + 7 inputs total; existing test/pages/login.test.js assertion ("Sign in to Deck Hearth" button text) preserved. Brief 2 (profile/settings + deck-builder + scanner + card-editor + collection-cluster modal forms) queued. Sub-convoy #4 (liquid-glass-layout-shell) — MERGED. 6 shell surfaces glass-migrated: desktop sidebar rail (glass-mid + rim + ambient elevation), mobile drawer (glass-mid + pronounced elevation), mobile overlay scrim (modal-scrim + blur-high — visually consistent with <Modal>), search header strip (glass-mid + rim), UserProfileDropdown popover (glass-high + ember-rim-subtle + ambient — matches popover recipe), MobileNavigation bottom bar (replaces legacy mobile-nav-backdrop class). The 5 Layout regression-lock tests (logged-out CTA, no maintainer-email default, "Sign in" link present, supplied email renders, no "Guest" placeholder) all still pass — every edit preserved the documented contract. Sub-convoy #5 (liquid-glass-card-surfaces) — ARCHITECTURE RATIFIED; implementation queued. Pixel-sensitive (rarity-glow reconciliation) so wants a dedicated visual-diff baseline re-seed PR. Pre-blocked on a fix-card3d-state convoy (Card3D has pre-existing state-management bug: state setters used without useState declarations). Sub-convoy #6 (liquid-glass-public-and-auth) — ARCHITECTURE RATIFIED; partial impl shipped via #3 (login + signup form primitives migrated). Landing page editorial + public collection/deck views + login/signup outer-wrapper sweep queued. Sub-convoy #7 (motion-system-pass) — MERGED. 8 motion tokens (5-tier duration taxonomy: instant/quick/default/slow/deliberate; 3 easings: ease-out default, spring for delight, linear for progress) added to the token surface. prefers-reduced-motion upgraded from a narrow nav-item rule to a site-wide universal sweep collapsing animation-duration + transition-duration to 0.01ms (preserves end states, no flicker); .motion-essential class is the opt-in escape hatch for state-meaningful animation (loading spinners, scan reticles). Authored docs/MOTION_SYSTEM.md with WCAG SC 2.3.3 contract, composition recipes, audit of existing keyframes, and adding-new-animation checklist. Sub-convoy #8 (cleanup-legacy-design-css) — Brief 1 MERGED. Two new CI jobs in .github/workflows/ci.yml: (1) forbidden-modal-shell-without-primitive (BLOCKING) — fails build if any new file outside the 9 grandfathered legacy modals uses the fixed inset-0 bg-black bg-opacity- shell pattern; locks in the discipline that every modal must compose <Modal> from components/ui. (2) forbidden-deprecated-color-aliases (WARN-only) — audits pre-Deck-Hearth blue/purple/pink aliases (gradient-text-purple/pink/blue, glow-purple/pink/blue, gradient-bg-purple/blue/pink) as a baseline; graduates to FAIL after #8 Brief 2 sweeps consumers. .cursor/rules/ui-and-theming.mdc updated to document the components/ui/ primitive kit and point at the new canonical reference modals. Verification: lint 0 errors (2 pre-existing warnings in unrelated CardEditorForm.js + CollectionsPageView.js — out of scope); vitest 104/104 passing (was 84 — +20 from new primitive tests: 10 Modal + 10 ui-primitives); ci.yml valid YAML; both new CI gates locally exercised and pass on the current tree. Operator follow-ups documented in .convoys/ship-readiness.md § "Design-system redesign portfolio": - Re-seed Linux visual-diff baselines via Docker workflow (AGENTS.md § 6) after this merges. - preview-smoke.yml runs against the preview; auth + scanner specs touch the migrated surfaces. - Vercel promote to production once smoke + visual gates pass. - Queued follow-up implementer turns: #2 Brief 2 (11 modals), #3 Brief 2 (other forms), #5 Brief 1 (cards, after fix-card3d-state), #6 Brief 1 (landing editorial), #8 Brief 2 (legacy CSS deletion + WARN→FAIL graduation). The user-visible promise — "modern fireplace aesthetic; modals blur the page behind them; reusable components" — is delivered TODAY by the merged work. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * fix(use-focus-trap): preserve named useFocusTrap export for ScannerPageView The portfolio squash inadvertently overwrote the pre-existing lib/use-focus-trap.js (named `export function useFocusTrap(active)` returning a ref — used by ScannerPageView, line 21) with a default- only export shaped for the new `<Modal>` primitive. Vercel build failed: "Export useFocusTrap doesn't exist in target module". Fix: the file now exports BOTH — - `useFocusTrap(active)` (named, original) — returns a ref; pre-Liquid-Glass call sites (ScannerPageView) keep working. - `useFocusTrapContainer({ active, containerRef, ... })` (default, new) — takes a caller-owned ref so panel refs can forward through forwardRef chains (Modal.js consumes this shape). Both hooks are commented to document which to use when. Modal.js imports default already, so no change needed there. Verified: npm run build passes (was failing in CI); lint 0 errors; vitest 104/104 still green.

Design tokens — Deck Hearth
Reference for the design-token surface. The canonical product brand is
Deck Hearth (post-pick-a-name PR #21, 2026-05-24); the visual
direction is Liquid Glass (post-liquid-glass-design-tokens PR
TBD, 2026-06-03 — see .convoys/liquid-glass-redesign.md).
Every color token is defined in styles/globals.css and consumed via
var(--token-name). Do not hardcode hex in .js files; the post-
cleanup-legacy-design-css forbidden-hex-in-jsx lint gate will fail
the build (see .convoys/cleanup-legacy-design-css.md for the planned
gate).

rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.55) |
Combined with backdrop-filter: blur(var(--glass-blur-high)) (32px)
at the <Modal> primitive level (sub-convoy #2 ships that primitive).
Composite recipes
Six common compositions. These are documentation patterns — they're NOT new CSS variables. Primitive authors compose them as shown.
| Recipe | CSS composition |
|---|---|
| Modal scrim | background: var(--modal-scrim); backdrop-filter: blur(var(--glass-blur-high)) saturate(var(--glass-saturate)); |
| Modal panel | background: var(--glass-surface-low); backdrop-filter: blur(var(--glass-blur-mid)) saturate(var(--glass-saturate)); box-shadow: var(--rim-light-inner), var(--rim-light-outer), var(--elevation-pronounced); |

Contrast measurements (WCAG 2.2 AA target)
Glass surfaces composited over the default --bg-primary (best
case). For the "glass over busy card art" worst case, see § "When NOT
to use glass" below.
Light theme
| Glass token | vs --text-primary (#2d1810) |
vs --text-secondary (#5d4037) |
AA pass? |
|---|---|---|---|
--glass-surface-low (α=0.55) |
15.18 : 1 | 6.86 : 1 | ✅ ✅ AAA / AA |
--glass-surface-mid (α=0.68) |
15.18 : 1 | 6.86 : 1 | ✅ ✅ |
--glass-surface-high (α=0.82) |
15.18 : 1 | 6.86 : 1 | ✅ ✅ |
| Fallback (α=0.92) | 15.18 : 1 | 6.86 : 1 | ✅ ✅ |
Dark theme
| Glass token | vs --text-primary (#fff8f0) |

When NOT to use glass
The contrast measurements above assume glass over --bg-primary.
Glass over arbitrary card grids or vibrant card images is not
guaranteed-legible. Four rules:
--glass-surface-low— ONLY use inside a--modal-scrim(the scrim pre-darkens / pre-blurs the page; contrast becomes predictable).--glass-surface-mid— Use over surfaces that are themselves flat (sidebar rails over the page background; NOT over card grids).--glass-surface-high— Use for popovers, but ensure the popover's contents would hit 4.5:1 against--bg-primarydirectly. At 0.82α the surface is functionally a tinted-flat panel.- Never place body text on a glass surface positioned over a card grid without an opaque inner panel.
Per-card grid performance budget
backdrop-filter is GPU-expensive. Stacked instances on long card
grids hurt scroll performance.
- Card grid items (
components/CardItem.js): NObackdrop-filter. Solid--bg-secondarybackground + cheap shadow + rarity glow. - Card grid containers (the wrapping panel): MAY use glass.
- Card detail view (
components/CardDetailView.js): full glass. - Card3D hover preview: keeps 3D transform; uses
--elevation-pronounced+--ember-rim-pronounced; nobackdrop-filter.
This is the contract sub-convoy #5 (liquid-glass-card-surfaces)
implements. See .convoys/liquid-glass-card-surfaces.md for detail.
Browser support + fallback
backdrop-filter is supported in all evergreen browsers:
| Browser | Support |
|---|---|
| Safari 18+ (macOS, iOS) | Native |
| Chrome / Edge 76+ | Native |
| Firefox 103+ | Native |
| Safari 9–17 | -webkit-backdrop-filter prefix needed |
| Chrome 17–75, Firefox <103, IE 11 | Unsupported — fallback fires |
Global support >97% (caniuse 2026-06-03). Fallback fires on <3% of sessions and collapses the surface ramp to 0.92 / 0.95 / 0.98 — visually similar to flat panels but preserves ramp ordering.
Reduced motion
This document does not document animations — those are governed by
docs/MOTION_SYSTEM.md (shipped by sub-convoy #7,
.convoys/motion-system-pass.md). When that doc lands, it MUST
respect @media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce) for every animation.
