Editor Workflows
Autosave Draft
One document-status control moves from edited to saving to saved, morphing a neutral dot into a spinner and confirmation mark at clear 300px-tile scale.

When to use it
Document editors, CMS products, settings forms and note tools that need a compact autosave-status microinteraction.
When not to
Revision history, conflict handling, offline recovery or actual persistence controls must be shown.
Working with an AI agent
Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:
Change the filename and three status labels, then adjust the edited/saving/saved waits in next(). Preserve the icon morph and single-row status shape; re-theme through --pro-* tokens.
Safe to edit
- theme tokens (:root --pro-* values)
- filename and three status labels
- file, spinner and check SVG styling
- edited/saving/saved timing in next()
Keep intact
- :root --pro-* token block (shared professional theming API)
- role=button, tabindex and descriptive aria-label on .asd-stage
- IIFE wrapper, reduced-motion saved state and visibilitychange pause
- unique asd- class namespace and theme hook
- demo-v1 preview lifecycle: initialize demoEnabled from window.__foreverPreview and stop attract work on the window forever:interactive event; retain manual feedback, settling, cleanup and explicit sessions
Known limitations
- Save state is illustrative and has no storage layer
- Only successful saving is modeled; production use needs offline, retry and conflict states
- Light re-theme uses the --pro-* block; catalog bg/accent describe the dark default
- State remains local to each mounted instance; format/theme remount preserves takeover, not component values.
