Mirror Convenience Hooks Proposal
# Mirror Convenience Hooks Proposal
## Overview
This proposal introduces three convenience hooks to reduce unnecessary re-renders and improve developer experience when working with Mirror data. These hooks cover the most common patterns found in the codebase that currently cause suboptimal re-render behavior.
**Current state:**
- `useMirrorList` and `useGlobalMirrorList` now use derived atoms with shallow array equality ✅
- Selector hooks (PR #3754) were reverted due to complexity concerns ❌

Mirror Hooks Optimization Proposal
# Mirror Hooks Optimization Proposal
## Overview
This document proposes a comprehensive approach to optimizing Mirror hooks to reduce unnecessary re-renders. It builds on two complementary changes:
1. **PR #3830** - Refactor `useMirrorList` to use derived atoms with shallow equality
2. **PR #3754** - Add selector hooks (`useMirrorListSelector`, `useMirrorFilteredMap`) for advanced cases
## Current State

Artifact Preview Generation Flakiness Analysis
# Artifact Preview Generation Flakiness Analysis
## Root Cause Analysis
The preview generation system has multiple failure points causing previews to not display:
### 1. Race Condition (Primary Issue)
The flow is:
1. Create artifact → Send `artifact:created` SSE (NO preview URL)
2. Generate preview async → Upload to S3 → Update artifact metadata

Design System v2: Classname Helpers - Complete Implementation Plan

Design System v2: Classname Helpers

A token-conscious approach using type-safe classname utilities instead of component wrappers for layout primitives.


Core Principle

Components for behavior. Classnames for styling.

import React from 'react';
import './App.css';
class App extends React.Component {
state = {anonymousFunctions: true, count: 100};
updateCount = e => {
this.setState({count: e.target.value});
};
updateAnonymous = () => {
this.setState({anonymousFunctions: !this.state.anonymousFunctions});
let lastFocused = [];
setInterval(() => {
const focused = document.querySelector(':focus');
if (focused && lastFocused[lastFocused.length - 1] != focused) {
lastFocused.push(focused);
}
}, 100)

const returnableLicense = {

deprecated: false,
},
function filter(list, predicate) {
return list.reduce((acc, item) => {

acc.push(item);
}
return acc;
}, []);
}
function map(list, func) {
return list.reduce((acc, item) => {
acc.push(func(item));
return acc;
}, []);
}
