The project shipped a black-and-white theme that was only half converted:
the login page looked right, the message page was halfway, and the
settings page had not been started. This finishes the move to the CYBER
reference in prototype_reference/.
Colors now come from a single token source (styles/variables.scss), where
every semantic color is declared twice: once as OKLCH for the CSS, and
once as an RGB triple so translucent variants can be built as
rgba(var(--*-rgb), alpha). Cyan is the system itself, amber means the user
has to intervene, green means the machine is working, and red only ever
means something broke. The RGB triples are derived from the OKLCH values
so the two declarations cannot drift apart.
Pages adopt the .cy-* shell classes from the reference (view, panel,
kpis, tabs, grid, table, field) instead of ad-hoc markup, which is what
makes 19 of 26 views consistent. The remaining seven are deliberately
bespoke: chat streams, the kanban board, the workflow canvas, the
terminal, and the missing-agent screen.
The chart palette and the kanban column colors move into single-source
modules so they cannot drift either. A new guard test rejects raw hex
colors, named colors, and literal RGB triples anywhere in the client
source, with an explicit exemption list for the places that genuinely
cannot read a CSS variable. The existing chat semantics spec keeps the
chat chain honest.
No behavior changes: no logic, no i18n keys, no data structures, and the
/chat-run event contract is untouched.
The token swap made every control dark, but the pages themselves kept
their Arco defaults — bare `padding: 20px` with components laid straight
on the background. That is why the running app still read as "not the
prototype" no matter how many variables were replaced: the prototype's
page structure (panel / panel-h / panel-b / kv / tabs) was never built.
Rather than restate that shell in each of the 25 views, it now lives in
global.scss as .cy-view / .cy-panel / .cy-panel-h / .cy-panel-b /
.cy-kv / .cy-tabs / .cy-tab / .cy-stack / .cy-sec-t, and the settings
components share a global .settings-section + .section-title so all nine
panes pick up the mono section headers at once. The per-component
duplicates of those two rules were deleted.
Settings is converted as the reference case: Arco's a-tabs/a-tab-pane
became the underline tab strip, and the pane body sits in a panel. The
URL-query sync moved to a watcher on activeTab so pane order and deep
links still hold. Pane order is a contract, so it is asserted.
Two tests lock the shell in place — one for the global classes and the
cyan underline selected state, one for the settings structure and pane
order. Without them the next edit easily slides back to bare Arco.
Replace the Pure Ink light/dark/comic theme system with the CYBER
single-theme dark palette from the reviewed prototype: OKLCH surfaces,
one neon-cyan accent, and monospace-first typography.
Arco components were reading colors from arco.css because no
ConfigProvider was mounted, so the theme values in arco-theme.ts never
took effect. Bridge CYBER into Arco through its --color-* variables in
global.scss instead, and align arco-theme.ts to match.
Brightness and style switches are gone: useTheme now pins dark, the
comic font faces and locale keys are removed, and ThemeSwitch.vue is
deleted along with its sidebar slot and display setting.
The project now has exactly one UI library. Every naive-ui component in
packages/client/src is replaced by its Arco equivalent across 24 views and
roughly 80 components, and naive-ui is dropped from package.json along with
its transitive vueuc / @css-render / vdirs / seemly dependencies.
The migration is rendering-layer only. No store logic, no API contract, and
no /chat-run payload was touched.
Three classes of leftover were invisible to `grep naive-ui` and are now
covered by tests/client/no-naive-ui.test.ts, which asserts all three:
- dead .n-* class names in style blocks
- dead --n-* custom properties
- naive-ui in package.json
Notable behavioural traps handled along the way, recorded in
docs/arco-migration-rules.md:
- a-input-password defaults to masked; passing default-visibility="false"
would have exposed API keys in clear text
- a-upload fires a real XHR unless auto-upload is false
- nested Trigger components fight over the first element child, so the
group-chat settings dropdown was flattened
- Arco renders tooltip default-slot text inline, which was silently
collapsing the chat and group-chat toolbars
Import the client, server, skills, tests, and build scripts as the starting
point for the rebuild, then trim the surfaces this project does not ship:
Electron desktop packaging, the marketing website, and the ESP32 firmware
tree. CI keeps the web build, e2e, lockfile, release, and Docker workflows.
Rename the package and CLI entry points to hermes-ui, drop the prepare hook so
npm ci no longer triggers a build, and drop the removed tsconfig and nodemon
references. Rewrite AGENTS.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, DEVELOPMENT.md, and the READMEs
so the documented package map and hard rules match this repository.
reference_code/ is ignored: it is a read-only snapshot, not an input to the build.
