Empty States (agent-native)

Empty domain state is a scenarios[] category empty — not an afterthought in implementation.

Contract encoding

scenarios:
  - id: no-tickets-yet
    category: empty
    trigger:
      when: collection_empty
      entity: hall_ticket
    screen_id: ticket-list
    ux: empty_state
    primary_action: view exam schedule
    copy: No tickets yet — tickets appear after payment confirms.

Design checklists

Every list/dashboard screen has collection_empty scenario or explicit "always populated" invariant.
One primary CTA toward first productive workflow step.
Explain what will appear after actor acts — not just "no data".
Distinguish empty vs error vs loading in ux field.
No fake data without label.

Verify checks

Actor walk with zero-data fixture or fresh account.
Empty state copy matches contract; CTA completes onboarding workflow.

Anti-patterns

Bare table with no rows and no guidance.
Feature tour modal instead of one clear action.
Empty state missing from contract — implementer guesses.
