# Phase 9: Styles Overhaul — Richard's Progress

_Branch: `cline-dev-richard`_

---

## Sprint 1 — 18 Feb 2026

### STYLE-005: Smart Style Suggestion Engine ✅ (committed 05379c9)

**Files created:**

- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/services/StyleAnalyzer/types.ts` — TypeScript interfaces: `ElementReference`, `RepeatedValue`, `VariantCandidate`, `StyleAnalysisResult`, `StyleSuggestion`, `StyleAnalysisOptions`, `TokenModelLike`, `SUGGESTION_THRESHOLDS`
- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/services/StyleAnalyzer/StyleAnalyzer.ts` — Static analyzer class:
  - `analyzeProject(options?)` — scans all visual nodes for repeated raw colors/spacing (threshold: 3) and variant candidates (threshold: 3 overrides)
  - `analyzeNode(nodeId)` — per-node analysis for property panel integration
  - `toSuggestions(result)` — converts analysis to ordered `StyleSuggestion[]`
  - `TokenModelLike` injected via options to avoid static singleton coupling
- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/services/StyleAnalyzer/SuggestionActionHandler.ts` — `executeSuggestionAction()`:
  - repeated-color/spacing → calls `tokenModel.setToken()` + replaces all occurrences with `var(--token-name)`
  - variant-candidate → sets `_variant` param on node
- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/services/StyleAnalyzer/index.ts` — barrel export
- `packages/noodl-core-ui/src/components/StyleSuggestions/SuggestionBanner.tsx` — Compact banner UI (accept / ignore / never-show)
- `packages/noodl-core-ui/src/components/StyleSuggestions/SuggestionBanner.module.scss` — Styled with CSS tokens only
- `packages/noodl-core-ui/src/components/StyleSuggestions/index.ts` — barrel export
- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/hooks/useStyleSuggestions.ts` — Hook: runs analyzer on mount, exposes `activeSuggestion`, `pendingCount`, `dismissSession`, `dismissPermanent`, `refresh`

**Pending (next session):**

- Unit tests for `StyleAnalyzer` (value detection, threshold logic, `toSuggestions` ordering)
- Wire `SuggestionBanner` into `ElementStyleSection` / property panel
- Consider debounced auto-refresh on `componentAdded`/`nodeParametersChanged` events

| `StyleTokensModel.setToken()` — verify method name matches actual API                        | ⚠️ Needs verification before action handler is used |
