# Dependency graph
requires:
  - phase: 01-01
    provides: "OKLCH semantic status tokens (over-budget, on-budget), category text colors, i18n keys"
provides:
  - "PageShell reusable page header component with title/description/action slots"
  - "StatCard KPI card with value formatting, semantic color, and variance badge"
  - "SummaryStrip responsive 3-card grid (income/expenses/balance) composing StatCards"
  - "DashboardSkeleton pulse-animated loading placeholder mirroring dashboard layout"
  - "DashboardPage refactored with semantic tokens and shared components"

key-decisions:
  - "StatCard uses font-bold (upgraded from font-semibold) for stronger KPI visual weight"
  - "SummaryStrip accepts t() as prop to stay presentational (no internal useTranslation hook)"
  - "DashboardSkeleton mirrors exact grid structure (3-col summary + 2-col chart) to prevent layout shift"
  - "Variance badge uses inline icon+text layout instead of Badge component for lighter visual weight"

patterns-established:
  - "PageShell pattern: all pages wrap content in PageShell with title prop from t() call"
  - "Skeleton-mirrors-layout: loading skeletons replicate exact grid structure of the real content"
  - "Semantic color classes: use text-on-budget/text-over-budget/bg-on-budget/bg-over-budget instead of hardcoded color values"

# Phase 1 Plan 2: Dashboard Shared Components Summary

**PageShell, StatCard, SummaryStrip, and DashboardSkeleton components with semantic OKLCH color tokens replacing all hardcoded green/red values in DashboardPage**

## Performance

- **Duration:** 2 min
- **Started:** 2026-03-16T11:17:50Z
- **Completed:** 2026-03-16T11:20:38Z
- **Tasks:** 2
- **Files modified:** 5

## Accomplishments
- Created 4 new shared components (PageShell, StatCard, SummaryStrip, DashboardSkeleton) establishing reusable patterns for all 9 pages
- Refactored DashboardPage to use shared components, eliminating inline SummaryCard and null loading states
- Replaced all hardcoded green/red color classes with semantic OKLCH tokens (text-on-budget, text-over-budget, bg-on-budget, bg-over-budget)

## Task Commits

Each task was committed atomically:

1. **Task 1: Create PageShell, StatCard, SummaryStrip, and DashboardSkeleton** - `ffc5c5f` (feat)
2. **Task 2: Integrate new components into DashboardPage** - `a533e06` (feat)

## Files Created/Modified
- `src/components/shared/PageShell.tsx` - Reusable page header wrapper with title, description, and action slot
- `src/components/dashboard/StatCard.tsx` - KPI display card with formatted value, semantic color, and optional variance badge with directional icon
- `src/components/dashboard/SummaryStrip.tsx` - Responsive 3-card grid (1/2/3 cols by breakpoint) composing StatCards for income, expenses, and balance
- `src/components/dashboard/DashboardSkeleton.tsx` - Pulse-animated loading placeholder mirroring summary grid and chart card layout
- `src/pages/DashboardPage.tsx` - Refactored to use PageShell, SummaryStrip, DashboardSkeleton; removed inline SummaryCard; semantic color tokens throughout

## Decisions Made
- StatCard uses `font-bold` (upgraded from existing `font-semibold`) for stronger visual weight on KPI values
- SummaryStrip receives `t` function as a prop rather than calling `useTranslation()` internally, keeping it as a pure presentational component
- DashboardSkeleton mirrors the exact grid structure of the real dashboard (3-col summary row + 2-col chart row) to prevent layout shift on load
- Variance badge uses inline icon+text layout (TrendingUp/TrendingDown/Minus icons) instead of Badge component for lighter visual treatment

## Deviations from Plan

None - plan executed exactly as written.

## Issues Encountered
- Pre-existing lint errors (5 total in badge.tsx, button.tsx, sidebar.tsx, useBudgets.ts) remain from before this plan. No new lint errors introduced. Build passes cleanly.

## User Setup Required

None - no external service configuration required.

## Next Phase Readiness
- PageShell pattern ready for all remaining pages (budgets, categories, template, settings, quick-add)
- StatCard/SummaryStrip available for any page needing KPI displays
- DashboardSkeleton pattern established for loading states across the app
- All Phase 1 components complete; Phase 2 can begin dashboard-specific chart and detail work

## Self-Check: PASSED

All 5 created/modified files verified present. Both task commits (ffc5c5f, a533e06) verified in git log.
