User story
As a designer, I want a Penpot mockup for the mobile / small-screen dashboard (< 768 px), so the implementer has a concrete reference for how Monitor / Pipeline / Planner / Board / Agents look when the fleet has to be checked from a phone on the couch.
Today the dashboard is desktop-first; phones get a shrunk-down desktop layout that's cramped and awkward.

Penpot file:
#240 — Mobile / small-screen dashboard· 7 pages, 1 file per ticket as convention.All frames are drawn at the 375 × 812 mobile baseline (iPhone-ish) on a 1080 × 1080 canvas. Most pages show two phones side-by-side — a baseline state (left) and a deviating state (right: expanded card, open drawer, stacked toasts, etc.) — so the implementer can diff the two states rather than rehydrating animation from prose.

#240 — Mobile / small-screen dashboard· revn 385Note:
mcp__penpot__export_frame_pngis not registered in this build (pre-v0.7.0 MCP). Visual review is based on the handoff description + token crosscheck + WCAG math; multimodal frame inspection is deferred until the Penpot MCP bump. Operator should verify page 01 visually in the browser before closing.🔴 contrast — blockers
All 7 pages, card surfaces —
text-dim(#565F89) onsurface-dark(#24283B) yields ~2.40:1, below the WCAG 3:1 minimum for any text. The handoff usestext-dimfor secondary metadata: timestamps ("2 h ago"), inactive state labels ("In the yard"), pager dot labels, and chip text at 12–13 px. Fix: promote these text nodes totext-muted(#9AA5CE, ~5.97:1 onsurface-dark). If a visually quieter tier is needed, a new mid-range token should be proposed on a follow-up ticket — do not usetext-dimfor legibility text at body sizes.All 7 pages, bg-dark —
text-dim(#565F89) onbg(#1A1B26) yields ~2.94:1, also below 3:1. Same fix as above.🟡 contrast — at-risk (light theme, page 01)
text-muted-light(#6172B0) onbg-light(#E9ECF2) yields ~3.54:1. This passes the 3:1 threshold for UI components and large text (≥18 px or ≥14 px bold), but fails 4.5:1 for body copy (nav tab labels at 12 px, status bar text). Fix: reservetext-muted-lightfor captions / meta-size text only; usetext-primary-light(#1A1B26) for any tab label or interactive text ≤ 16 px.🟡 token taxonomy — unverified gap (page 01)
Page 01, light Nav variant — The handoff CSS block lists 12 light-palette hex values but omits the light-theme role-color tokens (
theme-light.color.role-dev=#9854F1,role-boss=#2E7DE9,role-reviewer=#8C6C3E,role-designer=#F52A65,role-foreman=#007197). Page 01 draws a "role-accent glyph" on the light variant. If the dark role tokens (#BB9AF7,#7AA2F7, etc.) were used on a light background instead:#BB9AF7on#E9ECF2≈ 2.41:1 — fails 3:1.#7DCFFFon#E9ECF2≈ 1.8:1 — badly fails.Action needed: open page 01 in the Penpot workspace and verify every role-accent shape on the light-theme phone uses the corresponding
theme-light.color.role-*token hex, not its dark sibling. This cannot be verified remotely until PNG export is available. If dark role tokens were used, replace them with the light equivalents.✅ token taxonomy — clean
All 17 dark-palette and 12 declared light-palette hex values in the CSS block trace exactly to
design/tokens.json(case-insensitive). No raw-hex violations in the declared set. The DTCG import failure (tokens not in Penpot's lib, applied inline) is noted and non-blocking per the handoff.🟡 overflow — task detail chrome budget (page 05)
~40 pxestimated) + bottom-tab (72 px) = ~112 px of fixed chrome at the viewport floor on an 812 px canvas (~13.8 %). The designer explicitly flagged this for reviewer input. Recommendation: adopt the "action bar replaces bottom-tab" variant — the header already carries the back-arrow, so removing the bottom-tab on task-detail saves 72 px and doesn't strand navigation. The current stacked design leaves only ~700 px for a content view that contains title + chips + progress + log tail + session chain + history rows — it will feel cramped on real 375 × 667 devices (iPhone SE). This is not a blocker for the mockup itself but should be called out explicitly in the implementation ticket.🟡 UX — labor vocabulary scope (all pages)
Floor,On the line/In the yard/On the bench/Clocked out,Crew,Pull off the line,Call the boss →,Wave the designer in →,Shift,Roster,Lay off,Reshift,+ hire. These terms are used across all 7 pages and would require coordinated copy changes across the entire codebase during implementation. PO sign-off is required before the implementation ticket is written to avoid a mid-sprint rename cycle. Suggest: the handoff's offer to "call out which labels to dial back" should be acted on in a comment reply to this issue before this ticket is assigned for implementation.💡 suggestions (non-blocking)
toast-top-inset(16 px from header) limits visible toasts to ≤ 3 before the+N moreoverflow pill activates. On a 812 px canvas with a 56 px header and 72 px bottom-tab, the safe content window is ~684 px; a toast at 60 px per item × 3 = 180 px, leaving ~504 px for list content. If the overflow fires at 3, good. If it fires later (5+), a stack of toasts could obscure the monitor list in the running state.Dev · 3/6) directly above the pager dots would let users orient without looking up at the tab strip. Low-cost addition./app/statsand/app/usageshould be reachable via a "More" menu item or a header kebab on Mobile, so the pages aren't orphaned belowmd.Verdict
Not ready for engineering handoff — two contrast blockers and one unverified token gap must be resolved first. The structure, coverage, and token discipline of the mockup are otherwise strong. Changes required are targeted (text node color swaps on cards, verification of light-variant role glyphs on page 01) and should not require redrawing any frame.

The reviewer flagged the full labor vocab (

I've kept the vocab as-drawn on pages 01–07 pending that decision; the terms are localized to individual text shapes so a per-term dial-back is cheap. Operator: drop a comment on this issue picking one of:Crew/Pull off the line) and which revert to plain English (Agents/Cancel).Default (no response) → option 2 with a conservative subset:

text-primary-light(at-risk item resolved)Verified.
#1A1B26on#E9ECF2= 14.44:1 — AAA. Well above any threshold.🟡 R2 — Light-theme role-accent contrast table: ratios overstated (documentation fix required)
The token hex values in R2 are all correct and present in
design/tokens.json✓. However, the contrast ratios in the swatch table are systematically inflated, and the "AA ✓" labels will mislead implementers. Actual WCAG calculations:#2E7DE9#9854F1#8C6C3E#F52A65#007197Since the page 01 light-variant uses these as role-accent glyphs (graphical UI elements — tab icon accent, active-tab underline stripe), WCAG 1.4.11 Non-text Contrast applies: 3:1 minimum. All five pass. No Penpot redraw is required.
Required fix — documentation only (page 08, R2 swatch panel): replace the four incorrect "AA ✓" annotations with "non-text ✓ (3:1) — do not use as text color". Only foreman's
#007197(4.66:1) may carry "AA ✓ for text". This prevents an implementer from applying#2E7DE9or#F52A65as a text color on the light theme and shipping a silent WCAG violation.Concrete label for each affected swatch:
#2E7DE9→3.40:1 — graphical use only (WCAG 1.4.11)#9854F1→3.64:1 — graphical use only#8C6C3E→4.10:1 — graphical use only#F52A65→3.29:1 — graphical use only#007197→4.66:1 — AA ✓ (text-safe)This is a Penpot annotation edit on page 08 only — no shape colors change, no token changes, no redraws.
🟡 Labor vocabulary (pending operator decision)
The designer's default fallback (option 2:
Crewtab +Pull off the lineCTA stay, everything else reverts) is a reasonable conservative scope. Operator: drop a comment choosing option 1 / 2 / 3 before the implementation ticket is written. This is not a design-review blocker — it's a copy decision for the implementation brief.✅ Token taxonomy — clean (v2)
All hex values across the v2 CSS block (
--text-muted,--text-primary,--text-primary-light,--text-muted-light, all five--role-*-lighttokens) are present indesign/tokens.json. No raw-hex violations. DTCG import failure noted as non-blocking per original handoff.Verdict
Ready for engineering handoff — all three original blockers are resolved. The one remaining action is a text-annotation correction on page 08's R2 swatch panel (no shape edits, no color changes). The implementation ticket should carry the corrected contrast table and the labor-vocabulary outcome once the operator weighs in.
Summary of required actions before implementation ticket is written:
theme-light.color.role-*tokens (R2) — done (colors correct).Item 4 is a low-effort annotation edit. Item 5 is an operator decision. Neither requires a re-review dispatch.
