# Visx Foundation

> Use when porting or reimplementing visualization primitives from visx (@visx/*) — scale operator pipeline, chart keyboard-nav state machine + ARIA tree, brush extent FSM, zoom matrices, responsive/text/spring primitives: d3-scale config application with correct operator ordering, keyboard-navigable + screen-reader-accessible charts, pixel-to-domain brush selection with ordinal support, cursor-anchored zoom transforms, parent-size responsiveness without layout loops, SVG text measurement/wrapping, animated line enter/exit trajectories, and referentially-stable data/accessor plumbing.

# visx: Chart Primitive Kernel Foundation

## Foundation contract

This is a cold, source-specific foundation, not an operational procedure. It is
historical, revision-pinned evidence rather than timeless guidance. Current
project source, tests, requirements, and runtime behavior outrank this
projection and decide what ships.

## Provenance and revision

- Source record: `visx`; portable upstream identity, license, coverage caveats, and retrieval history are preserved in the index.
- Recorded revision: `master@485c0359664ee8e612992defb16e1f035ed40b23`.
- Full provenance, coverage caveats, boundaries, and preserved evidence:
  `references/index.md`.

## Topic map

- Representative topics: Scale plane; A11y plane; Brush plane; Interaction
  plane; Responsive plane; Text plane; Spring plane; Kernel plane.
- Scope and retrieval questions: `references/index.md#use-this-for`.
- Complete capsule chooser: `references/index.md#load-the-matching-source-dump`.
- Detailed grouped map: `references/index.md#capsule-map`.
- Source limitations and portability boundaries: `references/index.md#boundaries`.

## Retrieval

Open the index, choose one capsule matching the active question, and load only
that capsule. Revalidate its cited source and revision before relying on it. Do
not bulk-load the inventory, treat historical claims as current truth, or apply
this foundation as a procedure.
