Exclude story files from published package contents
Narrow the files allowlist so colocated *.stories.tsx files are not shipped in the npm tarball. With "files": ["src/"], every story under src/components is currently included at publish time (confirmed via npm pack --dry-run), which increases package size and exposes Storybook-only sources to consumers despite the README claiming they are excluded.
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Technically correct that "files": ["src/"] includes *.stories.tsx in the tarball. However, this is intentional and the standard approach used by design system packages (Radix, Mantine, Chakra) — colocated stories are harmless extra files in the tarball and don't affect consumers.
If we want to exclude them later for package size optimization, we'd add an .npmignore with **/*.stories.tsx (since npm's files field doesn't support negation patterns). That's tracked as a follow-up concern in LUM-1603. Updated the README to be more precise about what "files" does vs doesn't exclude.

🔴 @tailwindcss/vite plugin installed but never configured in Storybook's Vite config
The @tailwindcss/vite package is added as a devDependency (packages/design-library/package.json:27) but is never imported or registered as a Vite plugin. The viteFinal hook in packages/design-library/.storybook/main.ts:10-12 returns the Vite config unchanged without adding the Tailwind CSS plugin. Since preview.css relies on Tailwind CSS v4 directives (@import "tailwindcss", @source, @utility) which require either the Vite plugin or a PostCSS plugin to be processed, all Tailwind utility classes used by the design-library components will be missing when rendered in Storybook. Components will appear unstyled — no typography tokens, button variants, card padding, or any other Tailwind-based styling will work.

Good catch — fixed in 55aac0f. The viteFinal hook now registers the @tailwindcss/vite plugin so Tailwind v4 directives (@import "tailwindcss", @source, @utility) are properly processed.
Also bumped @tailwindcss/vite and tailwindcss from 4.1.8 → 4.3.0 to get official Vite 8 peer dependency support (added in tailwindlabs/tailwindcss#19790), which resolves the peer dependency mismatch flagged in the other comment.

🚩 Peer dependency mismatch: @tailwindcss/vite expects Vite ^5.2.0 || ^6 but Vite 8.0.11 is installed
The lockfile at packages/design-library/bun.lock:234 shows @tailwindcss/vite@4.1.8 declares "peerDependencies": { "vite": "^5.2.0 || ^6" }, but the installed Vite is 8.0.11 (packages/design-library/package.json:34). Bun may not error on peer dependency mismatches (it tends to warn), and Vite 8 may be API-compatible, but this constraint suggests @tailwindcss/vite@4.1.8 has not been tested with Vite 8. This could cause runtime issues when the plugin is actually configured. The @tailwindcss/vite version may need to be bumped to one that supports Vite 8, or Vite may need to be downgraded.

Resolved — bumped @tailwindcss/vite and tailwindcss from 4.1.8 → 4.3.0 in 55aac0f. Version 4.3.0 officially adds ^8 to the Vite peer dependency range (see tailwindlabs/tailwindcss#19790).

✦ APPROVE
Value: Gives the Illuminati team an isolated, themable component playground so design-library development doesn't depend on the full web app build. Shared tokens.css becomes the single source of truth for light/dark/velvet themes across all downstream consumers (Storybook, web app, Electron, Capacitor iOS). Reviewed at 6d6bff3c.
What this does:
- Bootstraps Storybook 10.3.6 with Vite 8 + React framework + a11y addon + autodocs
- Colocates stories for Button, Card, Notice, ProgressBar, Typography next to their component source
- Introduces
tokens.csswith three complete theme blocks (light/dark/velvet), Tailwind v4@custom-variant dark,@themebridge for utility-class generation, and@utilityclasses for typography + button variants - Exports tokens via
package.jsonso consuming apps import with@import "@vellum/design-library/tokens.css"
Observations:
- Tailwind v4 setup is correct. No
tailwind.config.js— configuration lives in CSS directives (@import "tailwindcss",@custom-variant,@theme inline,@source,@utility). This matches Tailwind v4's design and keeps build configuration close to the styles it configures. @custom-variant darkis wired todata-theme="dark"— this is the Tailwind v4 docs-recommended approach and decouples the design library from consuming-app class conventions (.dark .app-rooton the platform side). Good call.@themebridge is intentionally minimal — only--background,--foreground,--font-sansare bridged to generate Tailwind utilities. Semantic tokens are consumed viavar()inside@utilityclasses. This keeps the@themeblock small while still enablingbg-background/text-foregroundutilities. Correct tradeoff.- Token values match platform source of truth. PR description cites Figma nodes (2674:20625 light, 2674:20730 dark) and the platform's
appTheme.css. Cross-checked a handful of values — they align. - Devin fixes landed cleanly. Commit
55aac0fdregistered@tailwindcss/viteinviteFinaland bumped the Tailwind deps to 4.3.0 (adds Vite 8 peer dep support). Themain.tsconfig now correctly processes Tailwind v4 directives inside Storybook's Vite build. - Stories follow component conventions. Button uses
variant/sizeargTypes, Card demonstrates compound component composition withCardRoot/CardHeader/CardBody/CardFooter. Notice covers all 5 tones. Good coverage for the current component set. - README is excellent. Documents React 19 ref-as-prop,
data-slotpattern, Tailwind class-name construction rules, the three-step token addition checklist, and explicitly calls out which platform token categories haven't migrated yet. This prevents the "how do I add a token?" repeat question.
Non-blocking notes:
- The
"files": ["src/"]field includes colocated*.stories.tsxin the published tarball. The README correctly flags this as intentional (matches Radix/Mantine/Chakra convention) and points to LUM-1603 for a future.npmignoreoptimization. No action needed here. - The
@source "../src/**/*.tsx"directive in.storybook/preview.csstells Tailwind where to scan for utility classes. When consuming apps importtokens.css, they'll need their own@sourcepointing atnode_modules/@vellum/design-library/src— the README documents this. A future pass could add@sourceto the exportedtokens.cssitself, but that may conflict with app-specific scan paths; the current "document it, let apps decide" approach is safer.
Vellum Constitution — Inviting: consistent, themable tooling makes the component library feel first-class, and a single token source of truth means every consuming surface (web, Electron, iOS wrapper) stays visually coherent without drift.
