+# Table & Component Standardization Plan
+
+## 0. Motivation
+
+The app currently has **5 table implementations**, each hand-writing `<Table.Root>` boilerplate
+from scratch. The shadcn-svelte `Table.*` primitives (`web/src/lib/components/ui/table/`) are
+purely presentational wrappers — no sorting, filtering, pagination, row selection, or search.
+Every page reinvents sort arrows, empty states, loading skeletons, badge color maps, formatting
+utilities, and tab patterns independently.
+
+**Goal:** One `DataTable` abstraction that declaratively renders *every* table in the app,
+built on `@vincjo/datatables` (headless data-handling) with shadcn-svelte visuals and custom
+column/renderer composability.
+
+**Also:** Use this migration as leverage to standardize the component surface — extract
+repeated patterns into shared primitives so the codebase contracts rather than accumulating
+yet another abstraction.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Audit Summary
+
+### 1.1 Tables in the App
+
+| # | Page / Component | File | LOC | Features (what it has) | Gaps (what it's missing) |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| 1 | `EntityTable.svelte` | `web/src/lib/components/` | 265 | Sort (5 cols), treegrid grouping, collapsible nesting, row selection, keyboard nav, loading skeleton, health dots | Pagination, search, column toggle, checkbox select |
+| 2 | `Overview.svelte` | `web/src/pages/` | 125 | Filter pills (all/running/input/done/failed), sticky header, responsive cols, animated status dots | Plain `<table>` (no shadcn), no sort, no pagination |
+| 3 | `Ops.svelte` — 3 tables | `web/src/pages/` | 240 | Inline approve/deny actions, risk/status badges, cancel button, duration formatting (`fmtDuration`), relative time (`fmtWhen`) | No sort, no pagination, no search |
+| 4 | `Signals.svelte` | `web/src/pages/` | 171 | Tab filter (open/muted/resolved), severity dropdown, inline Ack/Mute/Resolve actions, badge colors | No sort, no pagination |
+| 5 | Markdown tables | `ChatThread.svelte`, `EntityDetailContent.svelte` | CSS-only | Prose-styled `<table>` for AI output | No interactive features (by design) |
+
+### 1.2 Repeated Patterns (duplicated per-page)
+
+| Pattern | Occurrences | Where |
+|---|---|---|
+| Sort header with arrow icons | 1 (closed set in `EntityTable`) | Only EntityTable has sort; Ops/Signals/Overview don't bother |
+| `riskVariant()` / `severityVariant()` / `stateVariant()` / `execStatusVariant()` | 6 | Ops.svelte ×2, Signals.svelte ×1, EntityTable.svelte ×2, Knowledge.svelte ×1 |
+| `fmtWhen()` / `relTime()` inline relative-time formatting | 3 | Ops.svelte, Knowledge.svelte (both inline; utils.ts has `relativeTime` already) |
+| `<Table.Root> > <Table.Header> > <Table.Row> > <Table.Head>` boilerplate | 6 | Every table page |
+| Empty state `<Table.Cell colspan={N}>No ...</Table.Cell>` | 6 | Every table page |
+| `<Tabs.Root> > <Tabs.List> > <Tabs.Trigger>` with badge counts | 2 | Ops.svelte, Signals.svelte |
+| Loading skeleton | 2 | EntityTable.svelte (custom widths), EntityDetailContent.svelte |
+
+### 1.3 Current Tech Stack
+
+| Layer | What | Version |
+|---|---|---|
+| Framework | Svelte 5 (runes mode) | ^5.0.0 |
+| UI primitives | shadcn-svelte (local copies in `ui/`) | — |
+| Headless backing | bits-ui | ^2.18.1 |
+| CSS | Tailwind v4 (CSS-first config, no PostCSS) | ^4.3.2 |
+| Variant system | tailwind-variants | ^3.2.2 |
+| Icons | @lucide/svelte | ^1.23.0 |
+| Table library | **none** | — |
+
+---
+
+## 2. `@vincjo/datatables` — Why This Library
+
+**Headless.** It provides a `TableHandler` class that handles client-side pagination,
+sorting, searching, filtering, column visibility, and row selection — all as runes.
+Rendering is entirely up to us. This pairs perfectly with shadcn-svelte visual styling.
+
+**API surface (what we care about):**
+- `new TableHandler(data)` — instantiate with reactive data
+- `table.rows` — **rune** that reflects current page/filter/sort (auto-tracked by Svelte 5)
+- `table.rowCount`, `table.pageCount`, `table.currentPage`, `table.pages`, `table.pagesWithEllipsis`
+- `table.setRows(data)`, `table.setRowsPerPage(n)`, `table.setPage('next'|'previous'|int)`
+- `table.createSort()`, `table.createSearch()`, `table.createFilter()`, `table.createView()`
+- `table.select(id)`, `table.selectAll()`, `table.selected`, `table.isAllSelected`
+- `table.createCSV()`, `table.createCalculation()`, `table.createRecordFilter()`
+
+**No dependencies.** Lightweight. TypeScript-native. SSR friendly (even though we're SPA).
+
+### What it does NOT do (and that's fine)
+- No rendering. We build the UI ourselves — use shadcn-svelte primitives.
+- No server-side pagination — if we need that later, the library has a separate server-side API.
+- No column ordering — we don't need drag-and-drop reorder; we use `createView()` for visible/hidden.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Architecture Plan
+
+### 3.1 New Core Component: `DataTable.svelte`
+
+```
+web/src/lib/components/data-table/
+├── DataTable.svelte          # The main table component
+├── DataTable.svelte.ts       # TypeScript type definitions
+├── columns.ts                # Column definition helpers
+├── renderers/                # Built-in cell renderers
+│   ├── BadgeRenderer.svelte
+│   ├── HealthDotRenderer.svelte
+│   ├── RelativeTimeRenderer.svelte
+│   └── DateRenderer.svelte
+├── pagination/               # Pagination UI
+│   ├── Pagination.svelte
+│   ├── PageButton.svelte
+│   └── RowsPerPage.svelte
+├── sort-header.svelte        # Sortable column header with arrow icons
+├── search-input.svelte       # Text search input
+└── toolbar.svelte            # Top toolbar (search + filter + page size)
+```
+
+### 3.2 `DataTable` API (declarative, Svelte 5 runes)
+
+```svelte
+<script lang="ts">
+  import DataTable from '$lib/components/data-table/DataTable.svelte'
+  import type { DataTableColumn } from '$lib/components/data-table/DataTable.svelte'
+
+  let data = $state<MyRow[]>([])
+  let selected = $state<Set<string>>(new Set())
+
+  const columns: DataTableColumn<MyRow>[] = [
+    { key: 'slug',   header: 'Slug',   sortable: true,                            class: 'font-mono text-xs' },
+    { key: 'type',   header: 'Type',   sortable: true,  render: 'badge'                                     },
+    { key: 'health', header: 'Health', sortable: true,  render: 'health-dot',      accessor: (r) => r        },
+    { key: 'actions', header: '',      sortable: false, render: (row) => component /* snippet or component */ },
+  ]
+</script>
+
+<DataTable
+  {columns}
+  {data}
+  bind:selected
+  pageSize={20}
+  searchable
+  paginated
+  sortKey="slug"
+  sortDir="asc"
+  loading
+  emptyMessage="No items."
+>
+  <!-- optional slot for toolbar actions -->
+</DataTable>
+```
+
+### 3.3 Column System
+
+A `DataTableColumn<T>` is:
+
+```typescript
+type ColumnRenderer<T> =
+  | 'badge'           // wraps value in <Badge variant="outline">
+  | 'health-dot'      // colored dot + relative time
+  | 'relative-time'   // relativeTime(val)
+  | 'date'            // new Date(val).toLocaleString()
+  | Component         // any Svelte component, receives { row, value }
+  | ((row: T) => any) // raw value formatter
+  | undefined         // raw value
+```
+
+Built-in renderers cover badge colors, health dots, timestamps — eliminating the 6
+inline `riskVariant()`/`severityVariant()`/`stateVariant()` copies. Custom components
+cover action buttons and complex cells.
+
+### 3.4 What ships with the table
+
+| Feature | How | Default |
+|---|---|---|
+| Sorting | Click column header → `createSort()` | Yes, if `sortable: true` |
+| Pagination | `table.pages` + `Pagination` component | Optional (`paginated` prop) |
+| Text search | `search-input.svelte` → `createSearch()` | Optional (`searchable` prop) |
+| Column visibility | `createView()` → dropdown toggle | Not in v1 (add later) |
+| Row selection | Checkbox column → `table.select()` | Optional (`bind:selected`) |
+| Loading state | Skeleton rows via `loading` prop | Yes |
+| Empty state | Configurable `emptyMessage` | Yes |
+| Tree/grouping | `childToParent` prop → recursive rows | EntityTable-only feature |
+| CSV export | `table.createCSV()` → download button | Not in v1 (add later) |
+| Server-side pagination | `handlePageChange` callback | Not needed yet |
+
+---
+
+## 4. Standardized Shared Components
+
+Extract the repeated patterns discovered in the audit into shared components:
+
+### 4.1 `StatusBadge.svelte`
+**Replaces:** 6 copies of `riskVariant()`, `severityVariant()`, `stateVariant()`, `execStatusVariant()`
+
+```svelte
+<script lang="ts">
+  let { value, kind = 'state' }: { value: string; kind?: 'risk' | 'severity' | 'state' | 'execution' } = $props()
+  // Resolves variant mapping from kind + value
+</script>
+```
+
+### 4.2 `EmptyState.svelte`
+**Replaces:** 6 `<Table.Cell colspan={N}>No ...</Table.Cell>` blocks
+
+```svelte
+<script lang="ts">
+  let { message = 'No items.', colspan = 999, icon = null } = $props()
+</script>
+```
+
+### 4.3 `RelativeTime.svelte`
+**Replaces:** `Oks.svelte:58` (`fmtWhen`), `Knowledge.svelte:49` (`relTime`)
+**Consolidates:** Already exists as `relativeTime()` in `utils.ts` — wrap in a component that auto-updates.
+
+### 4.4 `FilterTabs.svelte`
+**Replaces:** `Ops.svelte:114-120` and `Signals.svelte:153-159` (Tabs.Root boilerplate with badge counts)
+
+```svelte
+<script lang="ts">
+  let { tabs, value = $bindable(''), class, children }: {
+    tabs: { value: string; label: string; count?: number }[];
+    value?: string;
+    class?: string;
+    children?: any;
+  } = $props()
+</script>
+```
+
+### 4.5 `PageHeader.svelte`
+**Replaces:** Every page's `<h1 class="text-lg font-semibold">...</h1>` + optional actions row.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Migration Sequence (ordered for incremental delivery)
+
+### Phase 1 — Library & Foundation (~1 PR)
+
+1. **Install `@vincjo/datatables`**
+   ```
+   npm install -D @vincjo/datatables
+   ```
+
+2. **Build `DataTable.svelte` + `DataTable.svelte.ts` + `columns.ts`**
+   - Core loop: `{#each table.rows as row}` + column render dispatch
+   - Pagination sub-components: `Pagination.svelte`, `PageButton.svelte`, `RowsPerPage.svelte`
+   - `SortHeader.svelte` — click to sort, arrow icons (extract from `EntityTable:163-178`)
+   - `SearchInput.svelte` — debounced text search
+
+3. **Build renderers:** `BadgeRenderer.svelte`, `HealthDotRenderer.svelte`, `RelativeTimeRenderer.svelte`, `DateRenderer.svelte`
+
+4. **Build `EmptyState.svelte`**
+
+5. **Unit tests** for `DataTable` column dispatch, sort, pagination, selection.
+
+### Phase 2 — Simple Tables (no tree, no actions) (~1 PR)
+
+6. **Migrate `Overview.svelte` (task board)**
+   - Plain `<table>` → `DataTable` with `StatusBadge`, `RelativeTime`, filter pills external
+   - Drop sticky-header CSS (`DataTable` handles it)
+   - Verify: filter pills, status dots, responsive summary column, click-to-open
+
+7. **Migrate `Signals.svelte`**
+   - Replace `signalTable` snippet → `DataTable` with action-column renderer
+   - Extract `FilterTabs.svelte` from the Tabs boilerplate
+   - Verify: severity dropdown, tab counts, Ack/Mute/Resolve buttons
+
+### Phase 3 — Action Tables (~1 PR)
+
+8. **Migrate `Ops.svelte` — Pending Approvals**
+   - Approve/Deny buttons as action column renderer
+   - Risk badge via `StatusBadge kind="risk"`
+
+9. **Migrate `Ops.svelte` — Decided Approvals**
+   - Same columns, no actions
+
+10. **Migrate `Ops.svelte` — Activity**
+    - Cancel button, summary + error inline, duration via `RendererComponent`
+    - Extract `FilterTabs` for Approvals vs Activity tabs
+
+### Phase 4 — Tree Table (~1 PR)
+
+11. **Migrate `EntityTable.svelte`**
+    - Treegrid grouping is the hard part. Build a `TreeTable` variant or a `grouped` prop.
+    - `childToParent` prop stays → recursive rendering while `DataTable` handles sort + selection.
+    - **Alternative:** Ship `treegrid` as a separate `TreeDataTable.svelte` component if the
+      recursive pattern is too divergent to fit into `DataTable`.
+
+### Phase 5 — Cleanup & Standardization (~1 PR)
+
+12. **Extract shared components everywhere:**
+    - Audit every `.svelte` file for inline `riskVariant()` / `severityVariant()` / `fmtWhen()` — replace with `StatusBadge`, `RelativeTime`
+    - Audit for inline `<Tabs.Root>` boilerplate — replace with `FilterTabs`
+    - Audit for `<Badge variant={...}>` with inline logic — consolidate
+
+13. **Remove deprecated shadcn-svelte table primitives** after confirming nothing else imports them.
+
+14. **Delete duplicate utility functions** (`fmtWhen` in Ops, `relTime` in Knowledge, etc.)
+
+### Phase 6 — Polish (~1 PR)
+
+15. **Column visibility toggle** (optional)
+16. **CSV export** for entity tables (optional)
+17. **Responsive tables** — horizontal scroll with frozen left column for mobile
+
+---
+
+## 6. Risk Assessment
+
+| Risk | Mitigation |
+|---|---|
+| `@vincjo/datatables` doesn't support treegrid grouping | EntityTable's recursive rendering stays independent; `DataTable` wraps flat tables only |
+| Svelte 5 runes + `TableHandler` reactivity mismatch | `TableHandler.rows` is a rune. Wrap in `$derived` or `$effect` to feed `data` prop → `table.setRows()` |
+| Over-engineering a simple table (3-row decided approvals shouldn't need pagination) | `DataTable` accepts `paginated` prop — default off. Small tables stay simple. |
+| Treegrid migration breaks KB browser | Phase 4 is isolated. Phases 1–3 deliver value before touching the critical KB table. |
+
+---
+
+## 7. Success Criteria
+
+1. **Every `<Table.Root>`** in the app routes through `DataTable.svelte`
+2. **0** copies of inline `riskVariant()` / `severityVariant()` / `stateVariant()` — all through `StatusBadge`
+3. **0** copies of inline `fmtWhen()` / `relTime()` — all through `RelativeTime` or `utils.relativeTime`
+4. **0** copies of manual `<Table.Cell colspan={N}>No ...</Table.Cell>` — all through `EmptyState`
+5. **`web/src/lib/components/ui/table/`** retained for `DataTable` internals only (or removed if unused)
+6. **TypeScript compiles** with `--noEmit` and **tests pass** (`vitest run`)
+7. **All existing features preserved**: sort, tree expand/collapse, tab filters, severity dropdown, approve/deny/cancel/ack/resolve buttons, sticky headers, loading skeletons, health dots, empty states
+

+
+### Key Decisions Made During Implementation
+
+- **EntityTable treegrid NOT migrated to DataTable**. The recursive tree rendering is too
+  divergent from flat, paginated data. Instead, EntityTable was refactored to use shared
+  `SortHeader`, `EmptyState`, and `HealthDotRenderer` to eliminate inline duplication.
+- **`renderProps` added to `DataTableColumn`** to pass extra props (callbacks, state) to
+  custom cell renderer components (used by `SignalActions`, `ApprovalActions`, `ActivityCancel`).
+- **`headerClass` added to `DataTableColumn`** for responsive column visibility on `th` + `td`.
+- **`bordered` prop on `DataTable`** for cases where parent wrappers provide the border.
+- **`StatusBadge`** uses a `kind` discriminator (`risk`, `severity`, `execution`, `type`, `default`)
+  instead of separate components per domain.
+- **`FilterTabs`** created but not yet wired into Ops/Signals — those pages still use
+  inline `<Tabs.Root>` for the approvals/activity and open/muted/resolved tabs.
+
+### Remaining (Phase 6 — Future PR)
+
+- Wire `FilterTabs` into Ops.svelte and Signals.svelte
+- Column visibility toggle
+- CSV export
+- Responsive table with frozen left column for mobile
