… accent The Buzz theme's active-pill and hover styling in theme.css was scoped to [data-testid="app-sidebar"], so the settings pane's sidebar ([data-testid="settings-sidebar"]) fell back to the default grey pill/hover. Broaden the active-token, active-pill-shadow, dark-tint, and hover-fill rules to also match settings-sidebar so both light and dark Buzz variants render the white active pill and translucent-white hover, matching the Left Nav. Also pin the accent to the neutral (GitHub black/white) accent whenever a Buzz theme is active and hide the accent picker in Appearance. The stored accent is left untouched so it returns when switching back to another theme. Extend the existing buzz-theme Playwright spec to cover the settings nav active pill (light + dark) and assert the accent picker is hidden under Buzz.

…reveal Flicker: applyTheme set the theme CSS vars synchronously but the accent (--primary / --sidebar-active) was re-applied a microtask later in the caller's .then, so the previous accent flashed on the new theme for a frame when switching to Buzz. Apply the resolved accent inside applyTheme, in the same synchronous batch as the theme vars, so theme + accent paint together. Accent picker: wrap the Appearance accent section in AnimatePresence + a motion.div that fades and zooms (scale 0.95) on enter/exit, matching the app's modal motion (MODAL_CONTENT_MOTION_CLASS) and the ProfileSettingsCard reveal easing. Honors prefers-reduced-motion. So toggling Buzz on/off now reveals and hides the accent choices with the app's standard motion instead of popping. Extend the Playwright spec with a reveal/hide toggle test (github-light -> buzz -> github-light). 9/9 pass.

Apply Animator's review of the Buzz-theme accent picker motion: - Soften enter/exit scale 0.95 -> 0.98 (subtle settings reveal rather than a modal spawning inside the form) + add will-change hint. - Reduced motion no longer animates height/opacity via AnimatePresence; it conditionally renders/unrenders instantly (no spatial collapse). - Extract shared AccentPickerContent so animated and reduced-motion paths share one markup source. - Update comment to reflect the settings-reveal vocabulary. 9/9 buzz-theme-screenshots.spec.ts pass; tsc + biome clean.

The remaining theme-switch flicker was a race between two effects: the CSS translucency (transparent root/body) landed synchronously via data-buzz-translucent, but the native macOS NSVisualEffectView vibrancy layer that paints *behind* the transparent webview is installed by an async Tauri IPC (set_window_vibrancy). For the IPC round-trip the webview was transparent with nothing painted behind it, so the compositor showed the prior/main-app content through — the 'nav underneath' flash Kenny saw. Sequence transparency behind the vibrancy state: - Split the translucent toggle out of applyBuzzSidebar into setBuzzTranslucent(). applyBuzzSidebar now only flips the opaque data-buzz-sidebar gradient (always safe, never see-through). - applyBuzzVibrancy awaits set_window_vibrancy(enabled:true) and only THEN enables translucency, so the native layer is always present before the root goes transparent. - Leaving Buzz drops translucency synchronously first (opaque never shows through), then clears the native layer. - On IPC failure or non-Tauri/web, translucency stays off (opaque gradient fallback) instead of showing through to nothing. - Drop the redundant inline root background styles; the transparent root/body is already driven by the data-buzz-translucent CSS rule. 9/9 buzz-theme-screenshots.spec.ts pass; tsc + biome clean.

Per Animator's motion spec, replace the accent-picker's height+scale reveal with a translate-up + opacity fade, and stop the theme grid's bottom fade from masking the swatches: - Motion: y 10 -> 0 on reveal (rises into place), y -10 on hide (continues up + fades), opacity 0<->1, duration 0.16s, shared easing. AnimatePresence mode=popLayout + layout so siblings reflow cleanly without a collapsing surface. Drop height/scale/overflow-hidden. - White bar: the grid's bottom fade is a near-white gradient under Buzz light; it sat right above the picker and masked the swatches as they moved. Hide the bottom fade while the accent picker is visible (accentPickerHidden === false); keep it when the picker is hidden. - Reduced-motion branch unchanged (instant render/unrender). 9/9 buzz-theme-screenshots.spec.ts pass; tsc + biome clean. Signed-off-by: npub13fn4ahfnvaa2qwylvegdgeajqs0mph6v4qsw4jcqnw4mjh3hzh2quuucm5 <8a675edd33677aa0389f6650d467b2041fb0df4ca820eacb009babb95e3715d4@sprout-oss.stage.blox.sqprod.co>
Two refinements from Kenny on the accent-picker reveal: - Direction: the picker sits below the theme grid and should read as tucking behind it. Enter from above (y: -10 -> 0, slides down into place when a non-Buzz theme reveals it) and exit upward (y: -10, slides up behind the grid when Buzz hides it). - Kill horizontal drift: drop AnimatePresence mode=popLayout + the layout prop. popLayout pops the exiting node out of flow and layout animates positional deltas, which introduced a slight left/right shift. Without them the element only animates the y/opacity we specify — pure vertical motion, x pinned at 0. Height is no longer animated (picker is the last element in the section) so the layout machinery isn't needed. 9/9 buzz-theme-screenshots.spec.ts pass; tsc + biome clean.

On macOS/Tauri, this can set data-buzz-translucent as soon as the vibrancy IPC resolves, but applyTheme() is still awaiting loadThemeData() in a separate effect and may not have called applyBuzzSidebar(name) yet. When the IPC wins that race while switching from a non-Buzz theme to Buzz, the translucent CSS clears the body/sidebar surfaces before data-buzz-sidebar and the Buzz gradient variables are installed, so users can still see a transparent/unstyled sidebar flash. Even with the stale-request token fix, enabling translucency should wait until the Buzz theme vars/sidebar marker have been applied.
