Rationalize the is-style layer (LS-2341)

[brandonmarshal]

Summary

Removes ~30 single-use "fake" is-style block-style variants cluttering the editor's style picker, folding each into its one consumer pattern as inline block attributes or scoped structural SCSS, across 5 work groups.

Group 1 — Delete confirmed-dead variants

• Deleted 6 is-style variants with 0 consumers found anywhere in patterns

Group 2 — Fold section/card styles

• Folded single-use section/card is-style variants into their one consumer pattern as inline block attributes

Group 3 — Fold footer/misc styles

• Folded single-use footer and miscellaneous is-style variants into their consumer patterns

Group 4 — Badge/banner-tint to plain classes

• Converted the WooCommerce taxonomy-driven badge/banner-tint is-style swaps to plain classes, since they're programmatically toggled rather than editor-chosen

Group 5 — Final wrap-up

• Deleted the last 5 single-use is-style JSON files (button-cta-gradient, glass-button, cta-inline-card, footer-notes-panel, work-hero) and folded each into its consumer pattern
• Added structural/_buttons.scss and structural/_hero.scss for rest-state rules with no block-supports equivalent; moved hover/motion-only rules into the existing animations/*-motion.scss partials and _shared-hover.scss
• Kept mega-menu-panel-services as a registered is-style — confirmed multi-consumer, not single-use
• Fixed a duplicate arrow icon on the header CTA and glass buttons: renaming their classes from is-style-* to plain ls-* classes had silently broken _button-motion.scss's default-fill-button detector, so they inherited the default button's own arrow ::after on top of their own
• Fixed the header CTA button's text contrast using the existing button.fill.text semantic token (swaps base/contrast between light and dark) instead of a fixed value, so it stays legible in both modes
• CHANGELOG.md updated for this PR

Deliberately untouched

Multi-use is-style variants (content-band, card-feature, glass-card, icon-well-*, link-arrow-accent, stat-segment, card-link-row, tick-accent, button-secondary*, button-arrow-compact, mega-menu-item-*, card-icon-shell, mega-menu-panel-services) — all confirmed genuinely shared across multiple patterns, so they correctly remain registered style variants.

Test plan

• npm run build:css compiles clean, verified live-served CSS matches compiled output
• php -l on every changed pattern file
• Manual browser verification of every folded component — no visual/behavioral regression
• Swept for dangling is-style-* references to the deleted JSON files — none found
• Header CTA button verified in both light and dark mode after the contrast-token fix
• validate_blocks used to confirm serialization validity before applying pattern edits

Closes LS-2341.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change moves reusable styling from many block-style definitions into component styles, semantic classes, and pattern attributes. It adds separate CSS bundles and editor loading, updates motion and GSAP integration, and changes WooCommerce card-color processing to filter rendered HTML.

Changes

Style consolidation and runtime migration

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Pattern contracts and style definitions patterns/..., styles/sections/..., theme.json	Patterns use explicit attributes and semantic classes. Remaining style definitions document structural CSS ownership. Block-gap support is enabled.
Component stylesheet bundle and loading assets/css/..., src/scss/structural/..., inc/animations.php, functions.php, package.json	New bundles provide card, CTA, FAQ, hero, taxonomy, archive, and project-card styling. Build, front-end, and editor loading include these bundles.
Global motion and structural selectors assets/css/animations.css, src/scss/animations/...	Motion selectors use semantic classes. Footer and CTA structural rules move into dedicated styling. Reduced-motion rules cover the migrated selectors.
GSAP and rendered card integration assets/js/gsap-effects.js, inc/gsap.php, inc/portfolio-card-colors.php, CHANGELOG.md	GSAP initializes the home hero only. GSAP stylesheet registration is removed. WooCommerce classes are replaced in rendered block HTML. The changelog records the migration.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to ce726

The PR removes single-use style variants and moves their styling into pattern classes and structural or animation SCSS, but it is not yet merge-ready because changed files still have required header-check failures, keyboard-inaccessible social-icon groups, a closed FAQ layout issue, motion-boundary violations, and a header CTA hover style that does not take effect.

Suppressed comments (3)

src/scss/structural/_cards.scss:415

• This WooCommerce grid repeats the same hard-coded white UI colour, bypassing the semantic colour-token layer. Use the semantic surface highlight token so the grid follows the active style variation.
  src/scss/structural/_cards.scss:341
• The conditional class swap only requires the platform colours to stay in CSS. Border radius, padding and typography are static supported properties (and were structured JSON before), so keeping them here contradicts the theme-first/block-supports contract. Put those values on the core/post-terms block and retain only unsupported layout/descendant rules and conditional colours in Sass.
  src/scss/animations/_shared-hover.scss:73
• Renaming the Glass Button selector leaves its static backdrop-filter treatment in an animations/** partial, which is restricted to motion declarations. Move this @supports rule to structural CSS (shared by the button and retained Glass Card style) rather than keeping a non-motion exception here.

.wp-block-button.ls-glass-button .wp-block-button__link,
.is-style-glass-card {
  @supports ((backdrop-filter: blur(1px)) or (-webkit-backdrop-filter: blur(1px))) {
    backdrop-filter: blur(24px);
    -webkit-backdrop-filter: blur(24px);

The block documents card-banner-tint*.json and badge-*.json as the authoring location. This PR deletes those files and moves the rules to plain classes in the structural layer. The comment now points readers to files that do not exist and contains no code.

Extract the default-fill selector list into one Sass variable.

The same :is(...) selector with the two :not() exclusions is repeated seven times. Each future plain-class fold-in requires seven identical edits, and any missed edit reintroduces the duplicate-arrow bug the comment at Lines 44-50 describes. Store the selector once and interpolate it.

Move the footer nav-link hover swap out of this motion file.

Lines 127-128 declare color and text-decoration-color. Neither is @keyframes, transition, transform, animation, or will-change. This PR moved the equivalent .ls-footer-proof-card and .ls-footer-social-icon hover swap into src/scss/structural/_footer.scss for exactly this reason, and the comment at Lines 132-137 records that decision. Apply the same treatment here and keep only the transition at Lines 120-123.

As per coding guidelines, "Motion/animation files (src/scss/animations/**, src/scss/gsap/**) may contain only @keyframes, transition, transform, animation, and will-change rules, plus their prefers-reduced-motion companions."

Consider suppressing the CTA lift transform under reduced motion.

Line 117 disables the transition. The translateY(-1px) hover transform at Line 68 still applies, so the movement becomes instant rather than absent. The glass button block at src/scss/animations/_button-motion.scss Lines 362-366 adds transform: none for the same case. Add the matching rule for consistency.

Use logical size properties in the new structural rules.

Replace min-width, max-width, and width with min-inline-size, max-inline-size, and inline-size. This keeps the layouts correct for non-default writing modes.

src/scss/structural/_footer.scss:10

• This comment now points the hover swap at _footer-motion.scss, but the swap is implemented immediately below in this structural partial; only the transition remains in _footer-motion.scss. Update the location so future changes do not target the wrong file.
  src/scss/animations/_footer-motion.scss:130
• This says the complete hover/transition contract lives in _shared-hover.scss, but this PR moved the colour swap to structural/_footer.scss; _shared-hover.scss now contains only the shared transition. Correct the split described here.

 * Proof-point card (.ls-footer-proof-card) and social icon circle (.ls-footer-social-icon): both
 * folded in from styles/blocks/groups/*.json (LS-2341) as inline block attributes on
 * patterns/footer.php. Their hover/transition contract lives in _shared-hover.scss — shared
 * byte-for-byte with the header search button and the mobile-menu close button. WordPress doesn't
 * generate :hover/:focus CSS for arbitrary block style variations, so it stays real CSS there.

CHANGELOG.md:21

• The next two historical bullets are now inconsistent with this update: they still claim computed values are kept out of patterns and refer to the removed is-style-card-case-study class. Update the whole entry to describe the post-LS-2341 locations and class name accurately.

  - Matching section/block styles for rendering dynamically-bound taxonomy terms as a badge bar and individual tag pills, and for the card/divider/checklist shells (all since folded into their consumer patterns or converted to plain classes by LS-2341 — see Removed below).
  - Colour, computed values (background tints, borders) are kept out of pattern-level block attributes and defined only in these external style files — WordPress's block validator can't reliably round-trip a raw `color-mix()` value placed directly in a block's own `style` attribute.
  - Added hover-lift behaviour for the two interactive cards (`is-style-card-case-study`, `is-style-card-link-row`) to `assets/css/animations.css`, reusing the existing `card.hover` shadow contract, and extended the `is-style-link-arrow-accent` style/CSS to also support `core/read-more` (previously `core/paragraph` only).

[brandonmarshal]

Reviewed the 3 suppressed comments from this Copilot review — all 3 valid, all stale comment/doc drift from my own previous round of fixes (moved logic around, didn't update every comment pointing at it). Fixed:

• _footer.scss:10 — corrected to say the hover colour swap lives here, not in _footer-motion.scss
• _footer-motion.scss:130 — corrected to say the hover colour swap for proof-card/social-icon lives in structural/_footer.scss, only the shared transition timing is in _shared-hover.scss
• CHANGELOG.md:21 — updated the historical LS-1616/1617 entry to reflect is-style-card-case-study's rename to .ls-card-case-study and that some computed values later moved into pattern block attributes per LS-2341's theme-first rule

Comment-only changes, no CSS rules affected — confirmed the compiled animations.css diff is comment-only.

9-12: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

The CTA hover shadow cannot win against the inline rest-state shadow.

patterns/header.php serializes the rest-state shadow into the element's style attribute on the same .wp-block-button__link element:

style="...box-shadow:var(--wp--preset--shadow--interactive-accent);..."

An inline style always beats a stylesheet rule, regardless of specificity. The hover and focus-visible shadow therefore never applies. This is the same constraint that was already resolved for the glass button hover state with !important.

🐛 Proposed fix

 .ls-button-cta-gradient .wp-block-button__link:hover,
 .ls-button-cta-gradient .wp-block-button__link:focus-visible {
-  box-shadow: var(--wp--custom--shadow--interactive--accent), var(--wp--custom--shadow--elevation--300);
+  box-shadow: var(--wp--custom--shadow--interactive--accent), var(--wp--custom--shadow--elevation--300) !important;

Name the new component bundle in this rule.

The rule requires page or pattern styling to live in its own dedicated file. This PR creates that file: src/scss/components.scss, compiled to assets/css/components.css and loaded sitewide through inc/animations.php. Name it here so agents place new page-specific styles in the correct file instead of creating another bundle.

📝 Proposed addition

 - `assets/css/animations.css` (and the SCSS it's compiled from) may only contain
   genuinely **global** styling — content that loads sitewide through the header or
   footer template parts (including anything nested in them, e.g. the mobile menu or
   mega menus). Styling tied to a specific page or pattern does not belong there, no
   matter how small, and must live in its own dedicated file instead.
+- Page- and pattern-specific component styling belongs in `src/scss/components.scss`,
+  compiled to `assets/css/components.css` by `npm run build:css` and loaded through
+  `inc/animations.php`.

Use a semantic colour token for the filter button border.

Line 21 references the preset colour --wp--preset--color--neutral-200 directly. Every other colour in this file uses a settings.custom.color token. Replace it with the matching semantic token, for example the card border token already used by the FAQ rules at line 986.

Reset the CTA hover transform under reduced motion for consistency.

Extract the repeated default-fill selector into one Sass variable.

The same :is(...) selector list now appears six times. Each future exclusion must be edited in six places, and a missed edit produces an inconsistent fill-button state. Define the selector once and interpolate it.

• The three folded proof cards now rely on spacing.blockGap, but block-gap support is disabled and the saved markup contains no gap declaration. Their former style variation supplied spacing-5, so the number/label spacing regresses. Add the gap to the shared .ls-footer-proof-card CSS rule instead.

• The folded spacing.blockGap is inert because this theme does not enable block-gap support; the paired saved <div> has no gap declaration. Deleting footer-notes-panel.json therefore drops the explicit spacing-10 gap. Preserve this value in scoped CSS (or enable block-gap support) rather than relying on this attribute.

• This directly references a palette preset in authored UI CSS, contrary to the semantic-token policy (.github/instructions/design-token-policy.instructions.md:48,87). Use the existing semantic card-border token so the filter follows style variations.
  patterns/header.php:20
• These are normal block-attribute JSON values, so repository policy requires var:custom|... shorthand rather than CSS custom-property syntax (.github/instructions/design-token-policy.instructions.md:35-38). This also matches the surrounding pattern attributes.

CHANGELOG.md:21

• This changelog claim is inaccurate: the pattern and retained JSON style still use is-style-card-case-study; only its descendant banner classes were renamed. Correcting this avoids documenting a migration that did not occur.

  - Added hover-lift behaviour for the two interactive cards (`.ls-card-case-study` — renamed from `is-style-card-case-study` by LS-2341 — and `is-style-card-link-row`, still a registered multi-consumer style) to `assets/css/animations.css`, reusing the existing `card.hover` shadow contract, and extended the `is-style-link-arrow-accent` style/CSS to also support `core/read-more` (previously `core/paragraph` only).

src/scss/gsap-animations.scss:3

• The referenced destination does not exist; the home-hero rules now live in src/scss/components.scss. Update this source comment so future maintenance does not point to a deleted/non-existent partial.
  patterns/thank-you-consultation.php:125
• The PR description explicitly lists card-icon-shell as a deliberately untouched multi-consumer style, but this change removes its is-style-* class from all consumers and deletes its JSON variation. Either retain that registered style as described or update the PR rationale to explain why this shared component is intentionally being converted.

Prevent closed FAQ answers from retaining content height.

grid-template-rows: 0fr has an automatic minimum. Direct answer children retain their min-content block size, so closed answers can remain visible. Reset the direct children’s minimum block size, then regenerate the CSS bundle.

• src/scss/structural/faq.scss#L78-L98: add the direct-child minimum-size reset in the source rule.
• assets/css/faq.css#L59-L71: regenerate this bundle from the corrected SCSS.

Document the SCSS-only limitation.

Add a comment directly above .schema-faq that states why Yoast accordion markup cannot use a JSON style equivalent. Add a separate comment above the reduced-motion media query that states why JSON cannot express that override.

As per coding guidelines, “When writing a new or modifying an existing CSS rule that is genuinely unavoidable, add a comment directly above it naming the specific limitation that forced it.”

Move static styling out of the animation partial.

background-color is structural styling, not motion styling. Move the close-button base styling to src/scss/structural/_buttons.scss and keep animation partials limited to motion-related properties.

As per coding guidelines, motion/animation files may contain only @keyframes, transition, transform, animation, will-change, and prefers-reduced-motion rules.

• Enabling settings.spacing.blockGap in this PR makes the removed 60-token Columns gap valid and serialisable. Dropping it here now changes the section layout to the core default; restore the supported spacing.blockGap attribute and its generated style.
  inc/animations.php:60
• These entries are all enqueued by ls_theme_enqueue_frontend_effect_styles() on every front-end request, so this split adds eight stylesheet requests even on pages that use none of the components. The comments already identify safe conditions for the four Work-archive bundles and Home Hero; apply those conditions now (or keep them bundled until conditional loading exists) rather than shipping the acknowledged performance regression.

CHANGELOG.md:107

• This entry says multi-consumer icon-well variants remain registered, but this PR deletes all three icon-well JSON files and converts their consumers to ls-icon-well-* classes. Align the changelog (and PR description’s deliberately-untouched list) with the implemented removal, or restore those registered variants.

- Removed ~30 single-use "fake" `is-style` block-style variants that cluttered the block editor's style picker with options that were never a real second editorial choice (LS-2341): folded each into its one consumer pattern as real inline block attributes, or as scoped plain-classname CSS under the new `src/scss/structural/` directory where JSON block-supports genuinely can't express the rule (nested selectors, custom-property recipes, layered gradients). Converted `badge-brand`/`badge-woocommerce` and `card-banner-tint`/`card-banner-tint-woocommerce` from registered is-styles into plain classes swapped programmatically by `inc/portfolio-card-colors.php`, since they were a taxonomy-driven state flag, not an editorial choice. Deleted 6 fully dead, zero-consumer style files found during the audit, plus the single-use button (`button-cta-gradient`, `glass-button`, `button-glow-accent`), heading (`gradient-accent`, `shadow-heading-base`, `shadow-heading-contrast`), and paragraph/link (`footer-nav-link`, `link-underline-accent`) variants found in those same families. Left only the genuinely multi-consumer variants within icon-well, buttons, headings, and paragraph/link (e.g. `link-arrow-accent`, `button-arrow-compact`, `button-secondary`) registered as-is.

inc/animations.php:156

• The new bundle is assets/css/faq.css; there is no components.css in this loading path. Naming the actual stylesheet keeps this enqueue documentation accurate.

 * the current post's content). The FAQ's CSS ships unconditionally via components.css instead of
