TCRN Design System Contract Stories

Welcome

Welcome and governance

Design-system entry point, reader paths, and local-only claim boundaries.

TCRN brand markDesign SystemPrivate local scaffold proof
Contract map
Local proof only

Start here

Use this Storybook as the contract map for shared TCRN frontend presentation. It explains which UI decisions are owned by the design system, which proof is local, and where product adoption must be proven separately.

Claim boundaries

Package-local proof

Evidence is local to this design-system scaffold.

Consumer adoption separate

This proof surface intentionally makes no downstream acceptance claim.

Downstream evidence required

External, product, or release evidence is still required.

Governance boundaries

Boundary map for design-system, product, workflow, and release ownership.

External Storybook references may inform information architecture only; implementation, assets, styles, and tokens stay original to TCRN.

Maintainers and routing

Where each design-system question should route before implementation or proof.

Routing rule

When the work would mutate product repos, publish packages, create remotes, or claim acceptance, leave this Storybook route and open the owning route.

Contribution model

Admission rules for proposals and product-validated ideas entering the shared system.

Admission
Admit only cross-product presentation needs with synthetic proof.
Source
A product-validated idea may be proposed, but product evidence must be converted into synthetic examples.
Story contract
Each story needs purpose, anatomy, states, copy, accessibility, and proof notes.
Proof
Run Storybook, browser, accessibility, visual, and no-overclaim checks.
Promotion
Consumer adoption remains downstream and route-owned.
Product data, RBAC, API DTOs, and tenant truth stay outside this package.

Release and bug policy

How local checkpoints, package publication, consumer adoption, and bugs stay separate.
