Glossary Modal Editor

Glossary Modal Editor

Use this skill when you need to:

• change the Glossary modal layout, focus behavior, keyboard shortcuts, or resizing logic in src/components/Glossary/Glossary.tsx and its sub-components.
• adjust how external UI elements (GameModals, ActionPane buttons, character sheets, tooltips) trigger or navigate within the glossary.
• add, edit, or reorganize glossary content files so the modal renders new information.

Workflow

1. Verify the data surface: Start by handling glossary JSON entries under public/data/glossary/entries/, obeying the id, category, filePath, and markdown rules. Reference references/data-editing.md for file structure, tooltip markup, table styling, and index-generation reminders before touching the modal.
2. Update the UI: Use references/component-architecture.md to trace how Glossary composes GlossaryHeader, GlossarySidebar, GlossaryEntryPanel, GlossaryFooter, and GlossaryResizeHandles inside WindowFrame, how it uses useGlossaryModal, useGlossarySearch, and the surrounding GlossaryContext, and which higher-level modules (e.g., GameModals.tsx, App.tsx, tooltips, SingleGlossaryEntryModal) rely on it.
3. Validate end-to-end: Run node scripts/generateGlossaryIndex.js, confirm no duplicate IDs or missing categories, and trigger the glossary in-app (Open the modal, use tooltips, or open a single entry modal) to ensure the new data appears and navigation callbacks still work.
