Confirm panel forms Controller
The irreversible-action consent gate: a checklist of obligations that must be ticked before the primary action arms, plus live and revoked summary states.

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="confirm-panel-root" data-dz-region>…</div>
How to use it
Seams
- data-confirm-gate root + data-required=true checkboxes + data-required-count
- primary anchor parks destination in data-confirm-href until armed
- pick-a-surface: checklist consent → confirm-panel (not dialog / hx-confirm)
Do / Don't
| Do | Don't |
|---|---|
| keep armed state in the DOM (aria-disabled + href promotion) | mirror checked counts into a JS boolean a swap would orphan |
Pitfalls
- optional boxes never gate — only data-required=true count
- zero required boxes means the gate is always armed
- not a modal — do not replace with dialog that only mirrors checkbox state in JS
Keyboard / AT
- primary stays aria-disabled until required count is met
- live/revoked branches use data-confirm-tone for tone, not colour alone

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/confirm_panel.py
Required in the DOM: root [data-confirm-gate] (part confirm-panel). 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-confirm-gate] | data-required-count | present (any value) |
[data-required="true"] | data-required | present (any value) |
Module source
Import path is monorepo/package-local (from contracts._kit import …). Source-token form often uses data-*; gallery demos above are unprefixed. Do not copy this into app routes.
"""HYPERPART: confirm-panel — irreversible-action consent gate."""

Notes
chrome-vs-protocol: no addressing/gating modal; state-in-DOM. Primary ships aria-disabled with destination in data-confirm-href; confirm-gate.js recounts data-required=true vs data-required-count and arms the primary. Optional boxes never gate. Live/revoked branches use confirm-summary + data-confirm-tone.Source files
One logical Hyperpart, 4 code items (CSS layered, JS bundled). Bound by HYPERPART: confirm-panel — python tools/hyperpart.py confirm-panel lists them.
