90## AI Build Instructions
91
92> **Read this section before writing any code.** The rules below
93> are non-negotiable. Every value used in the UI must come from this
94> file's frontmatter — never substitute, approximate, or invent new
95> colors, fonts, radii, or shadows. If a value is missing, ask the
96> user before adding one.
97
98### 1 · Your role
99
100You are building UI for a project that has adopted **Cirrus Pane** as its
101design system. Treat `DESIGN.md` as the single source of truth.
102Your job is to translate the user's product requirements into
103components and pages that look like they were designed by the same
104person who authored this file.
105
106### 2 · Token compliance
107
108- Pull every color, font family, radius, shadow, and spacing value
109 from the frontmatter at the top of this file.
110- Use semantic roles (e.g. `primary`, `accent`, `muted`) — never
111 hard-code hex values that bypass the system.
112- When a token can be expressed as a CSS variable, declare it once
113 in your global stylesheet and reference it everywhere downstream.
114- The Google Fonts `<link>` is provided in the Typography section.
115 Add it to `<head>` before any component renders.
116
117### 3 · Component recipes
118
119Use these recipes verbatim when building the corresponding component.
120
121#### Buttons
122
123Four variants are defined. Pick one — never blend variants or invent a fifth.
124
125- **Primary** — pill shape, bg `rgba(63, 88, 120, 0.92)`, text `#FFFFFF`, border `1px solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.18)`, padding `13px 26px`, weight `600`, shadow `0 8px 20px -10px rgba(63, 88, 120, 0.45)`.
126- **Secondary** — pill shape, bg `rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.55)`, text `#3F5878`, border `1px solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.6)`, padding `13px 26px`, weight `600`, shadow `0 8px 20px -12px rgba(40, 60, 90, 0.18)`.
127- **Outline** — pill shape, text `#3F5878`, border `1px solid rgba(63, 88, 120, 0.28)`, padding `12px 25px`, weight `500`.
128- **Ghost** — pill shape, text `#42505E`, padding `12px 6px`, weight `500`.
129
130Reach for **primary** as the single dominant CTA per screen.
131**Secondary** for the supporting action. **Outline** for tertiary
132actions in toolbars. **Ghost** for inline links and table actions.
133
134#### Cards
135
136- Background: `#FFFFFF`
137- Border: `1px solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.6)`
138- Shadow: `0 24px 60px -28px rgba(40, 60, 90, 0.22), 0 2px 6px rgba(40, 60, 90, 0.06)`
139- Radius: `radius.lg` (`28px`)
140- Internal padding: `20px` for compact cards, `24–28px` for content cards.
141
142> This system ships a **glass treatment** — see the Glass token table.
143> Apply `backdrop-filter: blur(28px)` to translucent panes.
144> The page must have a backdrop (gradient mesh / blurred orbs) for glass to refract.
145
146#### Charts
147
148- Bar/line variant: `area`
149- No gridlines — let the bars/lines carry the data.
150- Highlight strategy: `last` — emphasize a single bar/point per chart.
151- Use the declared palette in order: `#3F5878`, `#7A8696`, `#B8C2CE`.
152
153#### Typography pairings
154
155- **Display (`Manrope`)** — h1, h2, hero headlines, brand wordmarks.
156- **Body (`Manrope`)** — paragraphs, labels, button text, form inputs.
157- **Mono (`JetBrains Mono`)** — code, eyebrows, metadata, numerals in tables.
158
159### 4 · Hard constraints
160
161Never do any of the following without explicit instruction from the user:
162
163- Introduce a new color, font, radius, or shadow that isn't declared above.
164- Mix this system with another (e.g. don't paste in Material or Bootstrap defaults).
165- Use generic gradient defaults (purple→blue, peach→pink) — they break the system's voice.
166- Reach for emoji icons. Use a consistent icon library and size icons in line with body type.
167- Add motion that exceeds the system's restraint — keep transitions short (≤200ms) and subtle.
168
169### 5 · Before you finish — verify
170
171Run through this checklist for every screen you produce:
172
173- [ ] Every color used appears in the Colors table above.
174- [ ] Headlines use the display font; body copy uses the body font.
175- [ ] Buttons match one of the declared variants exactly (shape, padding, weight).
176- [ ] Border-radius values come from `radius.sm` / `radius.md` / `radius.lg` / `radius.pill`.
177- [ ] Cards and dividers use the declared border + shadow tokens.
178- [ ] No values were invented; if you needed something missing, you stopped and asked.

182## Overview
183Cirrus Pane is a cool soft-glass system. The canvas is a pale icy blue with a horizontal cloud-light gradient — two diffuse radial highlights at opposite corners over a vertical pale-to-deeper-pale wash. Cards are true frosted panes: 18% white background, 28px backdrop-blur, 160% saturate, a 1px white hairline at 55%, and an inner top-edge gloss. One restrained slate-blue accent (#3F5878) carries every interactive moment.
184
185For SaaS surfaces that want to feel premium without going dark, weather and travel apps, financial dashboards that need a calm cool register, anything where "high cirrus light" is the brand mood.
186
187## The Glass Recipe
188The card treatment is the entire system. Every value matters:
189
190```css
191.card {
192 background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.18);
193 backdrop-filter: blur(28px) saturate(160%);
194 border: 1px solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.55);
195 box-shadow:
196 0 24px 60px -28px rgba(40, 60, 90, 0.22),
197 0 2px 6px rgba(40, 60, 90, 0.06),
198 inset 0 1px 0 rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.65);
199}
200```
201
202The inner top-edge highlight is non-negotiable — it's what makes the glass read as a real pane catching light from above rather than a flat translucent rectangle. The 28px blur and 160% saturate combine to keep colors behind the glass alive without smearing them.
203
204## The Backdrop
205Cards need something to refract. The page background layers two diffuse radial highlights at opposite corners over a vertical pale-blue wash:
206
207```css
208body {
209 background:
210 radial-gradient(80% 50% at 20% 0%, rgba(195, 215, 235, 0.65) 0%, transparent 60%),
211 radial-gradient(70% 60% at 90% 100%, rgba(210, 225, 240, 0.55) 0%, transparent 60%),
212 linear-gradient(180deg, #E8EEF4 0%, #DBE5EE 100%);
213}
214```
215
216Both highlights stay cool — never introduce a warm stop. Warm stops kill the cirrus mood instantly.
217
218## Color
219- **Slate-blue #3F5878** — the only chromatic mark. CTAs, chart line, active states.
220- **Mid slate #42505E** — body text.
221- **Cool stone #7A8696** — secondary text, axis labels.
222- **Icy canvas #E8EEF4** — page base.
223- **Paper #FFFFFF** — inverse moments only.
224
225## Typography
226- **Manrope 600** for display at 4.25rem with -3.4% tracking.
227- **Manrope 400** for body at 1rem with 1.65 leading.
228
229| Role | Font | Size | Weight | Tracking |
230|------|------|------|--------|----------|
231| Hero | Manrope | 4.25rem | 600 | -0.034em |
232| H1 | Manrope | 2.5rem | 600 | -0.026em |
233| H2 | Manrope | 1.5rem | 600 | -0.014em |
234| Body | Manrope | 1rem | 400 | -0.003em / 1.65 |
235
236## Geometry
237- **Radii: 14 / 20 / 28.** Soft and glass-friendly throughout.
238- **Section gap: 112px** desktop, 72px mobile.
239- **12-column grid** with 24px gutters.
240
241## Buttons
242- **Primary** — frosted slate-blue glass pill, 12px backdrop-blur, 160% saturate. White hairline.
243- **Secondary** — true frosted-white pill, 20px backdrop-blur. The system's most distinctive button.
244- **Outline** — slate-blue hairline at 28% alpha.
245- **Ghost** — bare slate label, hover underline.
246
247## Charts & Data
2482px slate-blue line, 22% fill area, no gridlines, end-of-line dot marker. Axis labels in cool stone at 0.75rem. The chart sits inside a frosted card so the soft cirrus backdrop reads through the data.
249
250## Do's and Don'ts
251- ✅ Hold every glass value precisely — the recipe is non-negotiable.
252- ✅ Always include the inner top-edge gloss. It's the difference between glass and translucency.
253- ✅ Keep all backdrop stops cool. No warm tones on the canvas.
254- ✅ One slate-blue accent only.
255- ❌ No warm radial stops in the backdrop. Cool light is the brand.
256- ❌ No flat opaque cards. Cards must be glass — that's the entire system.
257- ❌ No second chromatic accent.
258- ❌ No deep shadows. The glass floats softly; it doesn't drop heavy.
