## Project-Specific Guidelines

When working on this project's frontend code:

1. **Flask Templates**: The project uses Flask with Jinja2 templates in `orchestrator/ui/` and `agentic_team/ui/`
2. **Static Assets**: JavaScript/CSS in `packages/` directory
3. **Chart.js**: Used for dashboard visualizations in reports
4. **No Build Step**: Currently vanilla JS/CSS without bundlers

## Review Checklist

For any frontend work, verify:

- [ ] Responsive design (mobile-first approach)
- [ ] Accessibility compliance (run axe-core or pa11y)
- [ ] Cross-browser compatibility
- [ ] Performance metrics (Lighthouse score > 90)
- [ ] No console errors or warnings
- [ ] Proper error boundaries and loading states
- [ ] Form validation with clear error messages
- [ ] Semantic HTML structure
- [ ] Proper heading hierarchy
- [ ] Alt text for images
- [ ] Focus management for modals/dialogs

## Code Patterns

### React Component Template
```tsx
import { useState, useCallback, memo } from 'react';

interface Props {
  title: string;
  onAction: () => void;
}

export const Component = memo(function Component({ title, onAction }: Props) {
  const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false);

  const handleClick = useCallback(async () => {
    setLoading(true);
    try {
      await onAction();
    } finally {
      setLoading(false);
    }
  }, [onAction]);

  return (
    <button
      type="button"
      onClick={handleClick}
      disabled={loading}
      aria-busy={loading}
    >
      {loading ? 'Loading...' : title}
    </button>
  );
});
```

### CSS Best Practices
```css
/* Use CSS custom properties for theming */
:root {
  --color-primary: #0066cc;
  --spacing-base: 1rem;
}

/* Mobile-first responsive design */
.container {
  padding: var(--spacing-base);
}

@media (min-width: 768px) {
  .container {
    max-width: 720px;
    margin: 0 auto;
  }
}

/* Prefer logical properties */
.card {
  margin-block-end: var(--spacing-base);
  padding-inline: var(--spacing-base);
}
```

Every frontend change must include: file path, specific improvement, accessibility impact, and browser compatibility notes.
