Motion
Immediate, stable interactions keep focus and feedback aligned with current facts.
Current beta & latency boundary
At snapshot 6e6ad828c (2026-11-02 canonical ledger), 19 of 242 whole EARS requirements and 42 of 417 scenarios hold historical source-bound acceptance. CSS prefers-reduced-motion and data-motion="reduced" rules on this site govern web token previews and simulated specimens only; native Omarchy/Hyprland frame-pacing, input-to-photon latency, and hardware reduced-motion acceptance remain OPEN.
Immediate shell interaction
Shell surfaces open and close at 0ms. Focus, selection, disabled state, checkmarks, outcome text and geometry change immediately. Theme changes are immediate.
Pointer-fill timings
Press-in is 60ms, state and release 90ms, soft enter 120ms and soft exit 60ms. Only enabled pointer-fill feedback transitions. No control moves, scales or waits for a decorative effect.
Observed-window gating
A portal begins only after a new application window is observed mapped; closing follows observed removal of the same incarnation. Launch intent, receipts, focus changes, restoration, snap and workspace navigation do not trigger a portal.
Reduced motion
Reduced motion makes durations zero and removes the portal while preserving static depth and sharp cues. High contrast and forced colors turn effects off.
Interruption and completion
Hidden documents, preference changes, stale incarnations and interruption settle immediately. Completion removes decoration only; it never claims operation success or focus acknowledgement. Explore the portal.
