Sb inventory

sb-inventory — ground truth, not trust

Vibe-coded apps ship ~30% slop. This skill replaces "trust the AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md / DESIGN.md" with "see what's actually imported." Read CONTEXT.md for the real/vendor/dead/kind vocabulary. (The dominant design system here comes from code signals, never from a doc. If a DESIGN.md brief is present, sb-health cross-checks its claimed colors against the code — it drifts/lies the same way an AGENTS.md does.)

Run it

SKILL=${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}}
CORE=${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}}
"$SKILL/scripts/inventory-project.sh"   # writes .storybook/project-inventory.json (atomic)

The script is the ground truth — do NOT recompute by hand. Read the JSON and cite its fields. For the known detector gotchas (what the discovery scripts get right vs. wrong across validation runs), load references/field-learnings.md only when a count looks surprising (a 0, an outlier, a suspected false orphan). Do NOT load it for a clean first-pass inventory whose numbers look right — the JSON fields stand on their own.

Report (read these fields, in this order)

1. Stack — libraries (react/vite/tailwind v4|v3/shadcn/radix/baseui/r3f).
2. Dominant design system — designSystem.dominant (one of tailwind-v4/shadcn/dtcg/css-vars/ none) + mixed flag. If mixed → tell the user the project is in transition; suggest sb-health.
3. The user's own components — components.realCount / deadCount are domain components only. Cite components.real[] (most-imported first) as the priority list for stories.
4. Vendor — components.vendorCount + byKind.vendor = shadcn components/ui/ primitives. Call these out separately: "you also have N installed shadcn primitives — not your code, not slop, don't write stories for them first."
5. Modules / support / scaffold — moduleCount (byKind.module = types/helpers/hooks/utils/ lib/api — non-component source), supportCount (byKind.scaffold|support = test/factory/mock + SB init tutorial). All excluded from the headline AND the real[] most-imported list, so that list is your prod components, not a types.ts that's imported everywhere. Mention if non-zero.
6. Tokens — used vs orphan. Stories — orphanStories (stories importing a component that no longer exists) AND components.storyCoverage — own components written vs. needed: {real, storyFiles, withColocatedStory, withStory, needsCount, needsStory[]}. Read coverage from withColocatedStory (own components with their own <name>.stories.*) and storyFiles (distinct story files that exist) — those are the hard counts. withStory is a loose upper bound: it also counts a component as covered when any story merely imports it (e.g. a dialog story importing a form to mock it), so it over-reports — treat withColocatedStory ≤ real_coverage ≤ withStory. needsStory[] is the "stories needed" worklist (the inverse of orphanStories); refresh-usage.sh keeps it current so sb-stories can work down needsStory[].

The fix that matters here: the "real" list and headline are the user's authored components — NOT 40 shadcn primitives, types, or helpers. That was the #1 inventory complaint; the vendor/ support/scaffold buckets exist so the headline stays clean.

Surface it as a story

Scaffold the ProjectInventory wrapper so the agent + designer share the view:

"$CORE/scripts/scaffold-wrapper.sh" ProjectInventory   # → .storybook/wrappers/ (+ icons.tsx)

Title Foundations/Inventory. The wrapper reads the same JSON; no emoji (uses the shared icon set).

Real prop usage (not just real-vs-slop)

importers tells you a component is used; it does NOT tell you which props/variants the app actually renders. A shadcn Button may declare 6 variants but prod only ships 2 — the rest are catalog padding. Run the usage extractor after the inventory:

"$CORE/scripts/extract-component-usage.sh"   # → .storybook/component-usage.json (atomic)

Per component (own + shadcn primitives, keyed by PascalCase export) it records, from JSX call sites: props.<name>.{count, values{value:n}, exprCount}, callSites, files[], and declaredButUnused — declared props / string-union values never passed (prop-level slop). Plus a pages rollup. Cite these fields; never re-grep. sb-stories reads this to prioritize real states and tag never-used ones.

The component worklist — audit the system by imports (ComponentUsage)

For the whole-system view — every real UI component ranked by call-sites, what it's nested inside (parents) / renders (children), and which routed pages it ends up on (directly or transitively) — generate the component↔page import graph. It composes the three discovery JSONs (no new scan):

"$CORE/scripts/build-component-pages.py"   # project-inventory + component-usage + flows → component-pages.json
# (or just run "$CORE/scripts/refresh-usage.sh" — it writes all four together)

build-component-pages.py reads component-usage.json (callSites/props/declaredButUnused + each component's files), project-inventory.json (each component's file/kind), and flows.json (route path + access role), then writes .storybook/component-pages.json: per component {callSites, props, declaredButUnused, parents[], children[], pages[{path, title, role, storyId}]}, plus, when the component's own file is a routed page surface, isPage:true + route (the path it serves). A page is mounted by the router as a config value ({ component: X }), never as JSX, so it has 0 call sites / 0 props by construction (accurate, not missing) — route lets the docs read "serves /scheduler" instead of a misleading "0". route is the route it serves, kept out of pages[] (a page listed among "pages it appears on" reads circular). This is paired with the bidirectional usage edges so one file answers "where is X used" in any direction: fileIndex (<src file> → {component, kind, pages[]}), tokens (<--token> → {category, count, components[], pages[]} — forward), and per component a tokens[] array (the reverse — what that component consumes). tokens lists every declared token (used, primitive-only, or orphan) — a token consumed only by a design-system primitive (src/components/ui/*.tsx, which the inventory buckets as vendor/module, not a tracked component) still resolves to that primitive as its consumer instead of being silently dropped, so the explorer shows the whole palette, not just tokens that reach an app component. The usage-index helper (resolveUsage / UsageDetail / UsageDisclosure) reads fileIndex so TokenMatrix + the Foundations swatches turn raw paths into clickable component/page names; the UsageExplorer wrapper reads the full graph as the one searchable "where is this used?" surface (token ⇄ component ⇄ page). This makes the old per-app audit-map.json (a parallel component↔page graph) redundant. The ComponentUsage wrapper renders it as the worklist — scaffold it with "$CORE/scripts/scaffold-wrapper.sh" ComponentUsage. Pages are resolved through the render graph (a Rating nested in a CourseCard on /dashboard shows /dashboard), so it answers "what do we have, how heavily used, nested where, on which screens, and what still needs a story?" It's a static draft — barrel/dynamic/aliased imports can under-link; verify load-bearing edges against source.

Presenting usage (the aligned flow — match this in Storybook)

Usage lives where you look — embedded in each section's Docs, no separate "usage" pages/section.

1. One docs block, every Docs page (default, zero files). Ship the UsageSection wrapper and add it to the global autodocs layout in .storybook/preview.ts. It adds a real-usage section to each section's Docs, reading the matching audit output file (so foundations need tags: ['autodocs']):

   • Components → component-pages.json — the ComponentContext "Where it's used" map (the pages it lands on, what nests it, what it renders, the tokens it pulls), plus the real component from src/ rendered in isolation. Collapsed by default for fast scanning: a compact "where it's used" eyebrow
     • adaptive meta is always visible (only the non-zero counts — no redundant big <h2>, the Docs title already names the component); the map expands on demand (native <details>, open on the standalone audit page). The meta is page-aware: a real component reads "5 call sites · 2 props · has a story", while a routed page (isPage) drops call-sites/props and leads with the route it serves — "serves /scheduler · 5 renders · has a story". A "what is this + where it's from" provenance band sits inside it but is off by default (demo-only; reach it with setProvenance()). Reuses the Usage-explorer stamp.
   • Pages/* → the real app page from src/, rendered through the provider/Inertia mocks (sb-setup) — the actual page, not a mockup. Its "what is this?" provenance band is off by default (the page story carries the content; the band only returns when provenance is switched on).
   • Foundations → nothing from UsageSection. Each Foundation renders its own self-contained story: Colors → TokenMatrix (value · mapping · adoption — NOT health; leave the health prop off, it defaults false), Health → DesignSystemHealth (full findings), Icons → IconMatrix, Typography/Scales → the token displays. The old per-foundation "Real usage in this app" bands were removed: Health duplicated the DesignSystemHealth story, and per-token "where used" doesn't resolve for type/scale (declared names ≠ referenced names) — that lives in the Usage explorer + the Colors adoption column.

   No sidebar clutter; no separate pages.

   import { Title, Subtitle, Description, Primary, Controls, Stories } from '@storybook/addon-docs/blocks';
   import { UsageSection } from './wrappers/UsageSection';
   // parameters.docs.page = () => (<><Title/><Subtitle/><UsageSection/><Description/><Primary/><Controls/><Stories/></>)
   // ↑ order is yours — UsageSection here puts the real-usage status band at the TOP; move it last for the bottom.
   

   refresh-usage.sh keeps the JSONs current; a Storybook rebuild reflects them. The generator stamps nothing by default — scripts/scaffold-usage-mdx.py --per-component is an opt-in escape hatch for standalone <Name>.usage.mdx pages rendered from templates/usage-profile.mdx (rarely needed).

2. A visual usage grid is a FLAT story in the component's own CSF — never a separate file (a new file = a new sidebar folder). Add an export next to the others using the usage prop: <StateGrid component={X} usage={usageJson.components.X} states={…} /> (or StateMatrix); for tokens, <TokenUsageGrid>.

Limits: {...spread}/dynamic values are counted as exprCount ("set from a variable"), not resolved (static analysis).

Full Setup sweep

This skill owns the inventory. For the rest of discovery, run the sibling skills (each owns its script, writes atomic JSON, no sub-agent needed): sb-flows (routes/edges/nav → flows.json), then sb-stories generates component-states.json + prop-shapes.json when it needs them. Read the JSONs; never re-grep source.

Never (and the non-obvious why)

• NEVER decide the dominant design system from a doc — read code signals (imports, call sites). A DESIGN.md/AGENTS.md is a claim that drifts; the imports are what actually ship.
• NEVER recompute a count by hand or re-grep source — the discovery scripts already wrote it to .storybook/*.json. Cite the field. Re-deriving by eye drifts from what the wrappers render and burns context the JSON already paid for.
• NEVER trust an edge-case count blind — a 0, an outlier, or a suspected false orphan? Then load references/field-learnings.md (BSD-sed \s, Tailwind-utility token consumption, component-vs-page conflation). The static scan has known blind spots; the field notes name them.
• NEVER put a usage grid in its own file — it's a FLAT story in the component's own CSF. A new file is a new sidebar folder; the grid belongs beside the states it summarizes.

Append a one-line finding to .storybook/audit/findings.md, then ask the hub (/sb-hub) — usually sb-flows (capture the app-map) or sb-stories <TopComponent>.
