Button

# Aster Component Implementation Prompt — Button

## 1. Component Purpose & Canonical Role
- **Component:** Button (`button`)
- **Category:** Form Controls
- **Native Element:** `<button>`
- **Summary:** Starts an action, such as saving or deleting.
- **When to Use:** Form submissions, modal confirmations, workflow triggers, and primary commands.
- **When Not to Use:** Navigating between pages or documentation sections (use semantic <a> anchor elements).

## 2. Authoritative Repository Files
- **Component CSS:** `components/button/button.css`
- **Component Spec:** `docs/components/button.md`
- **Agent Contract:** `skills/using-aster-components/SKILL.md`
- **Compiled Bundle:** `dist/css/aster.css` and `dist/js/aster.js`

## 3. Canonical HTML Structure & Classes
```html
<!-- Primary Monochrome Pill Action (48px height, 16px vertical and 24px horizontal padding) -->
<button type="button" class="as-button as-button--primary">
  <span class="as-button__label">Deploy Cluster</span>
</button>

<!-- Secondary Outlined Action -->
<button type="button" class="as-button as-button--secondary">
  <span class="as-button__label">Cancel</span>
</button>

<!-- Destructive & Ghost Actions -->
<button type="button" class="as-button as-button--destructive">
  <span class="as-button__label">Terminate Node</span>
</button>
<button type="button" class="as-button as-button--ghost">
  <span class="as-button__label">Inspect Logs</span>
</button>
```

## 4. Measured Geometry
Measured from the rendered component when this page loads.

## 5. Non-Negotiable Aster Constraints
1. **Zero Primitive Color Leaks:** Bind colors strictly to `--as-semantic-color-*` custom properties. Never use `--as-color-primitive-*` or hardcoded hex values in component usage.
2. **Minimum 4px Radius Policy:** Never use `2px` border-radius. Use `--as-radius-sm` (`4px`), `--as-radius-md` (`8px`), `--as-radius-lg` (`12px`), or `--as-radius-full` (`9999px`).
3. **Single Standard Density Mode:** Compact mode (`data-density="compact"` / `.as-*--compact`) is permanently retired. Do not emit compact classes or attributes.
4. **WCAG 2.2 AA Accessibility:** Maintain >= 4.5:1 text contrast, >= 3:1 UI/border contrast, >= 24x24px interactive hit targets, and full keyboard operability (`Tab`, `Enter`, `Space`, `Escape`, Arrow keys).

## 6. Verification Commands
```bash
npm run test:components
npm run test:contrast
npm run test:browser
```
