`make ui-visual` had been red on main since #27, and nothing runs it, so four references had drifted across three unrelated merges. Two were refreshed with #186; these are the other two. Each recorded two changes, not one. `app-sidebar` lost Jobs (#27, shipped) and moved its highlight from Home to Tracks; `now-playing` gained the source line (shipped) and was playing from "a dynamic mix". Both are singleton stores read by a case that sets nothing, so the shot photographs whatever the case above it left behind — blessing that would have pinned the file's own ordering into a PNG. Both cases state their world now, and only then are the references re-recorded. The second half of the issue asks whether this tier should gate, and the answer is measured rather than preferred: replayed in a bare ubuntu:24.04 container — CI's `check` image — three of the ten baselines fail on rendering alone (`track-info` and one `page-header` shot at ratio 0.03 against a 0.02 allowance, `seek-bar` one pixel shorter), and the two stale ones disagree about their new height between the machines. So CI cannot run this suite without a second, container-recorded baseline set that every local run would then fail against, and a pre-push hook is the same fault with the machines swapped. It stays local and opt-in; what replaces the gate is the rule that a change moving a component's geometry refreshes that component's baseline in the same commit, having read the image, and never one it did not cause. Written where a person meets it: the skill's tier doc has the table, SKILL.md has the obligation, CLAUDE.md has the constraint. Deleting the baselines was the third option and is declined: this tier has caught one thing no other could, the `<span>` that lost the UA stylesheet's `box-sizing` and grew a badge 36→38px. Closes #196
YellowJacket Frontend
This directory contains the frontend for YellowJacket.
Dependencies
There are a couple of tools that are required to build and use the frontend.
vitefor- transpiling typescript
- bundling the final "package" that is useb by the webview
- running a dev server with hot-reloading
- configured with the
vite.config.tsfile in this directory
pnpmfor managing frontend dependency packages
There are a handful of dependency packages that we use directly in the frontend.
picocssfor basic CSS while developinglitfor a simple but powerful wrapper around Web Components
Lastly, there are some dependencies that only benefit development
tsservercomes bundled with vscode and can be used as an LSP with other editors usingtypescript-language-server- Used for autocomplete, syntax highlighting, etc.
- This can be configured with the
tsconfig.jsonfile in the root of the project- NOTE: your configuration should align with the
viteconfig so you get in-editor feedback that aligns with how the build will be done.

Development
Ideally, you would use the frontend in the wails app as the frontend depends on the Go bindings generated by Wails.
You can do this by running wails dev in the root of the YellowJacket repo.
If you want to run the frontend standalone, make sure the Wails go bindings have been generated with wails generate modules.
Then, you can run pnpm dev to run the vite dev server.
For more information on what commands are available, refer to package.json.
Code
Web Components
Our frontend is based off of Web Components, a standard that provides native browser encapsulation of components that can include HTML, CSS and Javascript all together.
Instead of writing these components manually in Javascript, we utilize lit as a wrapper library.
Typescript
To better integrate with our tooling and to provide a better developer experience with strong typing, we have written all functional frontend code in Typescript. Vite serves as our Typescript transpiler.
Important Files and Directories
NOTE: most of these directories have aliases defined in tsconfig.json and vite.config.ts so that we may refer to them by shorthand when importing.
