Fastness Column

Press and hold on one of five stacked dye vats and a cloth sinks in and slowly takes its color. Warm umber palette: dark umber and amber with a light theme. From the daily-team 'Control in process' set (2026-10-21 to 2026-10-25).

When to use it

Working with an AI agent

Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:

Palette: warm umber, dark umber and amber. Edit the colour tokens on :root and the light block; keep the demo-v1 lifecycle intact.

Safe to edit

  • vat colours and the hold duration
  • idle demo steps and interval

Keep intact

  • demo-v1 preview lifecycle: initialize demo from window.__foreverPreview and stop the idle demo on the window forever:interactive event or the first pointer or key input; retain manual feedback, settling, cleanup and explicit sessions
  • IIFE scope, prefers-reduced-motion snap, visibilitychange pause, forever:theme listener and ?theme bootstrap

Known limitations

  • The cloth colour is kept in localStorage inside a try. The percent label is drawn on the canvas.
  • State remains local to each mounted instance; format/theme remount preserves takeover, not component values.
  • Silent: the original daily-team build had sound where noted; it was removed so the tile stays quiet on the wall.
