Action grid data Sprite
Tone-tinted CTA cards with a count badge — the dashboard's 'what needs doing' surface. Cards with a URL are anchors; the grid packs intrinsically.

This Hyperpart has no server exchange — it is presentation or client chrome only. htmx does not issue a request on this part's behalf. If you put an affordance (hx-*) on a control that uses this markup, that action's exchange belongs to the action, not this part. See Swap contract for host-owned envelopes.
Swap contract
Agent-visible HTMX topology (ADR-0054 / decision 0012). exchange envelope = what the response may re-emit relative to the persistent slot (body_only | outer | none | host_owned | document). dual-lock validates part markup only — not this envelope. Stem: stems/morph-safe-hypermedia.md; decision: docs/decisions/0012-swap-identity-contract.md.
No host HTMX exchange on this part — presentation or client chrome only. exchange envelope: n/a.
If a host wraps this markup in hx-*, that host owns the swap contract (sole identity + envelope). Prefer innerMorph / outerMorph for stable slots; replacement for flash; body-only responses under inner swaps.
Envelope response examples
This part has no owned exchange (envelope n/a). If a host adds hx-*, that host’s envelope applies — typically body_only:
<!-- Host wraps this presentation part with hx-* (host owns envelope) -->
<!-- Prefer: hx-swap="innerMorph" hx-target="#panel-body" -->
<!-- Server returns body_only interior for #panel-body -->
<div class="dz-stack">content…</div>
Do not re-own the slot:
<!-- WRONG: server returns the presentation root with a new id every poll -->
<div id="action-grid-root" data-dz-region>…</div>
How to use it
No extended guidance authored yet — start from Copy this and the dependency chips (Primitive = markup only; controller = load listed JS; Endpoint = implement Server exchange).
Seams
- copy the partial under Copy this; keep root class and data-* modifiers so the CSS/JS bundle matches
- no Server exchange on this part — pure presentation or client chrome
- satisfy the DOM contract tables (CI stop-ship)
DOM contract
What the emitted HTML must satisfy — the table is the required surface; Python under contracts/ is the package-internal dual-lock CI runs (tests/test_contracts.py), not an app route. Standalone HTMX4: implement the API so responses match this markup. Dazzle: the agent emits SSR that already satisfies it. Do not invent attrs outside these tables. For request/response wiring see Server exchange.
contracts/action_grid.py
Required in the DOM: root [data-action-card] (part action-grid). Emit only these attributes — inventing extras is fine only if controllers ignore them; omitting required ones fails CI (tests/test_contracts.py).
| Node | Attr | Constraint |
|---|---|---|
[data-action-card] | data-action-card | present (any value) |
[data-action-card] | data-tone | one of ['neutral', 'positive', 'warning', 'destructive', 'accent'] |
Ingestion model ActionCard
Server-side shape before render — one normalisation boundary for producers.
| Field | Type | Required |
|---|---|---|
label | string | required |
tone | string ∈ ['neutral', 'positive', 'warning', 'destructive', 'accent'] | optional |
url | string | optional |
count | integer | null | optional |
icon_html | string | optional |
Exemplar render()
Executable in CI: the Python below is render(); the boxed preview is render(EXEMPLARS[0]) — the first fixture the dual-lock tests emit, not a separate widget and not gallery mock data. Sample model: label=Overdue invoices.
def render(card: ActionCard) -> str:
"""Model → one action card (anchor when url set, else div)."""
tone = html.escape(card.tone, quote=True)
label = html.escape(card.label)
if card.icon_html.strip():
icon_html = card.icon_html
else:
icon_html = '<span class="dz-action-card-icon-spacer"></span>'
count_html = ""
if card.count is not None:
count_html = (
f'<span class="dz-action-card-count" data-dz-tone-badge="{tone}">{card.count}</span>'
)
body = (
f'<div class="dz-action-card-row">{icon_html}{count_html}</div>'
f'<span class="dz-action-card-label">{label}</span>'
)
root_open = f'class="dz-action-card" data-dz-action-card data-dz-tone="{tone}"'
if card.url:
href = html.escape(card.url, quote=True)
return f'<a href="{href}" {root_open}>{body}</a>'
return f"<div {root_open}>{body}</div>"
Live output of render(EXEMPLARS[0]) — fixture markup the dual-lock validates (sample field values only).
Notes
data-tone and the count badge via data-tone-badge. Dual-lock root is data-action-card (contracts/action_grid.py). A URL makes the card an <a> (whole card = the target); without one it renders a static <div>. An icon SPACER holds the row height when a card has no icon.Source files
