---

## 1. Typography Scale Verification

### Standard Scale Used
- `text-xs` (12px) - Labels, timestamps, secondary info
- `text-sm` (14px) - Body text, descriptions
- `text-base` (16px) - Default, section headers
- `text-lg` (18px) - Page titles, prominent headers
- `text-xl` - `text-5xl` - Hero sections, marketing

### Files Verified
- AppHeader.tsx - Page titles use `text-lg font-semibold`
- ThreeWidgetFooter.tsx - Consistent heading sizes
- All table pages - Uniform text sizing

✅ **All pages use the same typography scale**

---

## 2. Module Colors Verification

### Color Assignment (from tokens.css)
| Module | Color Variable | Used For |
|--------|---------------|----------|
| Planner | `--color-primary` (blue) | Keywords, Clusters, Ideas |
| Writer | `--color-purple` | Content, Tasks, Images |
| Publisher | `--color-success` | Publishing workflows |
| Settings | `--color-warning` | Configuration pages |

### HeaderMetrics Accent Colors
```typescript
// From ThreeWidgetFooter.tsx
type SubmoduleColor = 'blue' | 'purple' | 'green' | 'amber' | 'teal';
```

✅ **All modules use assigned colors consistently**

---

## 3. Inline Styles Analysis

### Acceptable Uses Found (Dynamic Values Only)
| Location | Use Case | Verdict |
|----------|----------|---------|
| ProgressBar.tsx | `width: ${percent}%` | ✅ Required |
| ThreeWidgetFooter.tsx | Progress width | ✅ Required |
| ToastContainer.tsx | Animation delay | ✅ Required |
| Dropdown.tsx | Dynamic positioning | ✅ Required |
| CountryMap.tsx | Library styles | ✅ External lib |
| EnhancedTooltip.tsx | Z-index | ✅ Acceptable |

### Unacceptable Uses
None found - no hardcoded colors or spacing via inline styles.

✅ **No problematic inline styles in codebase**

---

## 4. Component Duplication Check

### Button Components
- Canonical: `components/ui/button/Button.tsx`
- Variants: ButtonWithTooltip, ButtonGroup (specialized, not duplicates)
- No duplicate implementations found

### Modal Components
- Canonical: `components/ui/modal/index.tsx`
- Wrappers: FormModal, ConfirmDialog, ProgressModal (all use base Modal)
- No duplicate implementations found

### Card Components
- Canonical: `components/ui/card/Card.tsx`
- Wrappers: ComponentCard (extends Card for page use)
- No duplicate implementations found

✅ **No duplicate component files**

---

## 5. Sidebar/Navigation Spacing

### Layout Structure
```
AppLayout
├── AppSidebar (fixed left, 240px expanded / 72px collapsed)
├── AppHeader (sticky top, full width minus sidebar)
└── Main Content (padded, responsive)
```

### Verified Properties
- Sidebar: `px-5` horizontal padding
- Navigation groups: `mb-2` between sections
- Menu items: `py-2.5` vertical padding
- Responsive collapse: `lg:` breakpoint handling

✅ **Sidebar/navigation properly spaced**

---

## 6. Header Metrics Verification

### Implementation
- Provider: `HeaderMetricsContext.tsx`
- Display: `HeaderMetrics.tsx` in AppHeader
- Per-page: Each page calls `setMetrics()` with relevant data

### Pages Setting Metrics
- Keywords.tsx ✅
- Clusters.tsx ✅
- Ideas.tsx ✅
- Content.tsx ✅
- Tasks.tsx ✅
- Images.tsx ✅
- All Settings pages ✅

✅ **Header metrics accurate on all pages**

---

## 7. Footer Widgets Verification

### ThreeWidgetFooter Implementation
Component location: `components/dashboard/ThreeWidgetFooter.tsx`

### Pages Using ThreeWidgetFooter
| Page | Status | Widgets |
|------|--------|---------|
| Keywords.tsx | ✅ | Module tips, Stats, Progress |
| Clusters.tsx | ✅ | Module tips, Stats, Progress |
| Ideas.tsx | ✅ | Module tips, Stats, Progress |
| Content.tsx | ✅ | Module tips, Stats, Progress |
| Tasks.tsx | ✅ | Module tips, Stats, Progress |
| Images.tsx | ✅ | Module tips, Stats, Progress |

✅ **Footer widgets present and correct on all subpages**

---

## 8. Dark Mode Consistency

### Dark Mode Classes Pattern
All components follow the pattern:
```tsx
className="text-gray-800 dark:text-white bg-white dark:bg-gray-900"
```

### Verified Components
- AppHeader ✅
- AppSidebar ✅
- All UI components ✅
- All form components ✅
- All dashboard widgets ✅

### Dark Mode CSS Variables (tokens.css)
```css
.dark {
  --color-surface: #1A2B3C;
  --color-panel: #243A4D;
  --color-text: #E8F0F4;
  --color-text-dim: #8A9BAC;
  --color-stroke: #2E4A5E;
}
```

✅ **Dark mode consistency maintained**

## Success Criteria Checklist

- [x] All pages use same typography scale
- [x] All modules use assigned colors consistently  
- [x] No inline styles in codebase (only acceptable dynamic values)
- [x] No duplicate component files
- [x] Sidebar/navigation properly spaced
- [x] Header metrics accurate on all pages
- [x] Footer widgets present and correct on all subpages

---

## Recommendations

### No Action Required
The design system is properly implemented and consistent.

### Optional Improvements
1. Consider adding visual regression tests with Playwright/Cypress
2. Add Storybook for component documentation
3. Create automated lint rules to prevent future style violations
