+# Service Registry → @ui Component Migration Analysis
+
+**Date**: 2025-12-28
+**Purpose**: Detailed comparison of service-registry custom components vs @ui equivalents
+
+---
+
+## 1. StatCard vs MetricCard
+
+### Current Implementation (StatCard)
+**Location**: `/codebase/features/service-registry/frontend/src/components/styles/Dashboard.styles.ts`
+
+**Props:**
+```typescript
+interface StatCardProps {
+  $variant?: 'default' | 'success' | 'error' | 'warning';
+  $isActive?: boolean;
+  onClick?: () => void;
+  children: React.ReactNode;
+}
+```
+
+**Key Features:**
+- **Interactive button element** - Clickable for filtering
+- **Active state styling** - Border color, background tint, box-shadow when `$isActive`
+- **Hover effects** - Translate + shadow on hover (when not active)
+- **Variant-based colors** - Maps variant to theme color (primary/success/error/warning)
+- **Layout** - Flexbox column, children expected to be StatValue + StatLabel + StatSubtext
+
+**Usage Pattern:**
+```tsx
+<StatCard
+  $variant="success"
+  $isActive={filters.status === 'healthy'}
+  onClick={() => toggleStatusFilter('healthy')}
+>
+  <StatValue $variant="success">42</StatValue>
+  <StatLabel>Healthy</StatLabel>
+</StatCard>
+```
+
+---
+
+### @ui Equivalent (MetricCard)
+**Location**: `@transquinnftw/ui-analytics/src/MetricCard.tsx`
+
+**Props:**
+```typescript
+interface MetricCardProps {
+  label: string;
+  value: string | number;
+  change?: number;
+  trend?: 'up' | 'down' | 'neutral';
+  format?: NumberFormat;
+  sparkline?: number[];
+  icon?: React.ReactNode;
+  variant?: 'default' | 'primary' | 'success' | 'warning' | 'error';
+}
+```
+
+**Key Features:**
+- **Static div element** - Not interactive by default
+- **Border-left accent** - 4px left border for non-default variants
+- **Change/trend display** - Built-in percentage change with arrows
+- **Sparkline support** - Background sparkline visualization
+- **Icon support** - Optional icon in header
+- **Value formatting** - Built-in formatValue utility
+
+**Usage Pattern:**
+```tsx
+<MetricCard
+  label="Healthy"
+  value={42}
+  variant="success"
+  change={5.2}
+  trend="up"
+/>
+```
+
+---
+
+### Key Differences
+
+| Aspect | StatCard (Current) | MetricCard (@ui) | Migration Impact |
+|--------|-------------------|------------------|------------------|
+| **Interactivity** | `<button>` with onClick | `<div>` (read-only) | **BLOCKING** - Need wrapper or make MetricCard clickable |
+| **Active State** | `$isActive` prop with distinct styling | No active state | **BLOCKING** - Need to add active state variant |
+| **Structure** | Children-based (flexible) | Props-based (structured) | **HIGH** - Need to adapt data structure |
+| **Value Display** | Separate `<StatValue>` component | Built-in with formatting | **LOW** - Better abstraction |
+| **Hover Effects** | Transform + shadow (when inactive) | None | **MEDIUM** - Need to add hover styling |
+| **Subtext** | Supported via `<StatSubtext>` child | No subtext support | **MEDIUM** - Need to extend MetricCard |
+| **Change Indicator** | Not supported | Built-in (change%, trend arrows) | **LOW** - Bonus feature (not currently used) |
+| **Sparkline** | Not supported | Built-in | **LOW** - Bonus feature (not currently used) |
+
+---
+
+### Migration Requirements for MetricCard
+
+**CRITICAL (Blocking):**
+1. **Add clickable variant**: Wrap Card in button or make Card accept onClick + interactive styling
+2. **Add active state**: New `isActive?: boolean` prop with active styling (border, background, shadow)
+
+**HIGH Priority:**
+3. **Preserve hover effects**: translateY(-2px) + shadow on hover (when not active)
+4. **Support flexible children**: Either keep props-based OR allow children override
+
+**MEDIUM Priority:**
+5. **Add subtext prop**: Optional `subtext?: string` below label
+6. **Match spacing/sizing**: Ensure padding, font sizes match current design
+
+**Proposed MetricCard Enhancement:**
+```typescript
+interface MetricCardProps {
+  // Existing props...
+  isActive?: boolean;
+  onClick?: () => void;
+  subtext?: string;
+}
+
+// Styled changes:
+const Card = styled.div<{ $variant: string; $isActive?: boolean; $isClickable?: boolean }>`
+  // ... existing styles
+  cursor: ${props => props.$isClickable ? 'pointer' : 'default'};
+  transition: all 0.2s ease;
+
+  ${props => props.$isActive && `
+    border-color: ${getVariantColor(props.$variant)};
+    background: ${getVariantColor(props.$variant)}10;
+    box-shadow: 0 0 0 2px ${getVariantColor(props.$variant)}20;
+  `}
+
+  ${props => props.$isClickable && !props.$isActive && `
+    &:hover {
+      transform: translateY(-2px);
+      box-shadow: ${props.theme.shadows.md};
+    }
+  `}
+`;
+```
+
+---
+
+## 2. TypeStatBadge vs StatusBadge
+
+### Current Implementation (TypeStatBadge)
+**Location**: `/codebase/features/service-registry/frontend/src/components/styles/Dashboard.styles.ts`
+
+**Props:**
+```typescript
+interface TypeStatBadgeProps {
+  $type: 'api' | 'web' | 'worker' | 'ml';
+  $isActive?: boolean;
+  onClick?: () => void;
+  children: React.ReactNode; // Expected: "API <TypeStatCount>5</TypeStatCount>"
+}
+```
+
+**Key Features:**
+- **Interactive button** - Clickable for filtering by type
+- **Type-specific colors** - api=info, web=primary, worker=warning, ml=success
+- **Active state** - Solid background + white text when active, translucent when inactive
+- **Hover effects** - Darker background + stronger border on hover (when inactive)
+- **Inline count** - Children expected to contain label + count span
+
+**Usage Pattern:**
+```tsx
+<TypeStatBadge
+  $type="api"
+  $isActive={filters.type === 'api'}
+  onClick={() => toggleTypeFilter('api')}
+>
+  API <TypeStatCount>5</TypeStatCount>
+</TypeStatBadge>
+```
+
+---
+
+### @ui Equivalent (StatusBadge)
+**Location**: `@transquinnftw/ui-primitives/src/StatusBadge.tsx`
+
+**Props:**
+```typescript
+interface StatusBadgeProps {
+  variant: 'success' | 'warning' | 'error' | 'info' | 'neutral';
+  children: React.ReactNode;
+  size?: 'small' | 'medium';
+}
+```
+
+**Key Features:**
+- **Static span element** - Not interactive
+- **Variant colors** - success/warning/error/info/neutral
+- **Size options** - small/medium (controls padding + font size)
+- **Simple styling** - Translucent background (variant20), colored text, no border
+
+**Usage Pattern:**
+```tsx
+<StatusBadge variant="info" size="medium">
+  API
+</StatusBadge>
+```
+
+---
+
+### Key Differences
+
+| Aspect | TypeStatBadge (Current) | StatusBadge (@ui) | Migration Impact |
+|--------|-------------------------|-------------------|------------------|
+| **Interactivity** | `<button>` with onClick | `<span>` (read-only) | **BLOCKING** - Need to make clickable |
+| **Active State** | `$isActive` with solid bg + white text | No active state | **BLOCKING** - Need active variant |
+| **Type Mapping** | `$type` (api/web/worker/ml) → color | `variant` (success/warning/error/info) | **HIGH** - Need custom type-to-variant mapping |
+| **Border** | 1px solid border (color40 / solid when active) | No border | **MEDIUM** - Need to add border |
+| **Hover Effects** | Background darkens, border strengthens | None | **MEDIUM** - Need hover styles |
+| **Count Support** | Inline children (with TypeStatCount styling) | Plain children | **LOW** - Can keep using children |
+
+---
+
+### Migration Requirements for StatusBadge
+
+**CRITICAL (Blocking):**
+1. **Add clickable variant**: Change to button element when onClick provided
+2. **Add active state**: New `isActive?: boolean` prop with solid background + white text
+
+**HIGH Priority:**
+3. **Custom variant mapping**: Need to map service types (api/web/worker/ml) to badge variants OR extend variant type
+4. **Add border**: 1px solid border at variant40 opacity
+
+**MEDIUM Priority:**
+5. **Add hover effects**: Darker background + stronger border on hover (when not active)
+6. **Match sizing**: Ensure padding matches TypeStatBadge (sm/md spacing)
+
+**Proposed StatusBadge Enhancement:**
+```typescript
+interface StatusBadgeProps {
+  variant: 'success' | 'warning' | 'error' | 'info' | 'neutral';
+  children: React.ReactNode;
+  size?: 'small' | 'medium';
+  isActive?: boolean;
+  onClick?: () => void;
+}
+
+// Usage with type mapping:
+const typeVariantMap = {
+  api: 'info',
+  web: 'primary', // Would need to add 'primary' to variant union
+  worker: 'warning',
+  ml: 'success',
+} as const;
+
+<StatusBadge
+  variant={typeVariantMap[type]}
+  isActive={filters.type === type}
+  onClick={() => toggleTypeFilter(type)}
+>
+  {label} {count}
+</StatusBadge>
+```
+
+---
+
+## 3. LiveIndicator Comparison
+
+### Current Implementation (service-registry)
+**Location**: `/codebase/features/service-registry/frontend/src/components/styles/Toolbar.styles.ts`
+
+**Props:**
+```typescript
+interface LiveIndicatorProps {
+  $isConnected: boolean;
+}
+```
+
+**Key Features:**
+- **Connection state** - Shows "Connected" (green) vs "Offline" (gray)
+- **Animated dot** - 6px dot with pulse animation (2s, box-shadow spread)
+- **Small size** - xs font, xs/sm padding
+- **Conditional styling** - Color + background change based on connection state
+
+**Usage Pattern:**
+```tsx
+<LiveIndicator $isConnected={isLiveConnected}>
+  <LiveDot $isConnected={isLiveConnected} />
+  {isLiveConnected ? 'Connected' : 'Offline'}
+</LiveIndicator>
+```
+
+---
+
+### @ui Equivalent
+**Location**: `@transquinnftw/ui-realtime/src/LiveIndicator.tsx`
+
+**Props:**
+```typescript
+interface LiveIndicatorProps {
+  label?: string;
+  variant?: 'default' | 'compact';
+  color?: string;
+}
+```
+
+**Key Features:**
+- **Fixed "LIVE" label** - Shows "LIVE" text (customizable via label prop)
+- **Always "live" state** - Designed for live content, not connection status
+- **Animated dot** - 8px dot with opacity pulse (2s, 1 ↔ 0.5)
+- **Variant sizes** - default vs compact (controls padding)
+- **Custom color** - Optional color override (defaults to error red)
+
+**Usage Pattern:**
+```tsx
+<LiveIndicator label="LIVE" variant="default" />
+```
+
+---
+
+### Key Differences
+
+| Aspect | Current LiveIndicator | @ui LiveIndicator | Migration Impact |
+|--------|----------------------|-------------------|------------------|
+| **Purpose** | Connection status (binary) | Live content indicator (always on) | **HIGH** - Semantic mismatch |
+| **State Prop** | `$isConnected: boolean` | No state prop (always live) | **BLOCKING** - Need to add state |
+| **Label** | Dynamic ("Connected" / "Offline") | Fixed ("LIVE") | **HIGH** - Need dynamic label support |
+| **Color** | success (green) / tertiary (gray) | error (red) by default | **MEDIUM** - Need color logic |
+| **Animation** | Box-shadow spread (0→6px) | Opacity pulse (1↔0.5) | **LOW** - Either works |
+| **Dot Size** | 6px | 8px | **LOW** - Minor visual change |
+| **Background** | success15 / background.secondary | error20 | **MEDIUM** - Need state-based bg |
+
+---
+
+### Migration Requirements for LiveIndicator
+
+**CRITICAL (Blocking):**
+1. **Add state prop**: New `isActive?: boolean` or `status?: 'connected' | 'disconnected'`
+2. **Dynamic label**: Support custom label based on state (not just "LIVE")
+
+**HIGH Priority:**
+3. **State-based colors**: Green (success) when connected, gray when disconnected
+4. **Background styling**: Match state-based background (success15 / background.secondary)
+
+**MEDIUM Priority:**
+5. **Animation consistency**: Use box-shadow spread animation (matches service-registry better)
+6. **Dot size**: Consider making dot size configurable (6px vs 8px)
+
+**Proposed LiveIndicator Enhancement:**
+```typescript
+interface LiveIndicatorProps {
+  label?: string;
+  variant?: 'default' | 'compact';
+  color?: string;
+  // NEW props:
+  isActive?: boolean;
+  activeLabel?: string;
+  inactiveLabel?: string;
+}
+
+// Usage:
+<LiveIndicator
+  isActive={isConnected}
+  activeLabel="Connected"
+  inactiveLabel="Offline"
+  variant="compact"
+/>
+```
+
+**Alternative Approach:**
+Create a new `ConnectionIndicator` component in `ui-realtime` specifically for connection status, keeping `LiveIndicator` for "live content" semantics.
+
+---
+
+## 4. SearchInput, FilterSelect, ViewModeToggle
+
+### Current Implementation
+**Location**: `/codebase/features/service-registry/frontend/src/components/styles/Toolbar.styles.ts`
+
+**SearchInput:**
+- Standard text input with left-padding (2.5rem) for icon
+- Focus state: primary border + box-shadow
+- Placeholder styling
+
+**FilterSelect:**
+- Native `<select>` element
+- Min-width 120px
+- Right padding for dropdown arrow
+
+**ViewModeToggle:**
+- Segmented control (button group)
+- Active button: primary background + white text
+- Inactive buttons: transparent + hover effects
+- Border-right separators between buttons
+
+---
+
+### @ui Equivalents
+**Status**: No direct equivalents found in scanned @ui packages
+
+**Missing Components:**
+1. **Form primitives** - No Input, Select components in ui-primitives
+2. **Segmented controls** - No button group / toggle group component
+
+---
+
+### Migration Requirements
+
+**Option A: Extract to @ui**
+Create new package `@transquinnftw/ui-forms` with:
+- `<Input>` - Text input with icon support, focus states
+- `<Select>` - Native select with custom styling
+- `<SegmentedControl>` - Button group for view toggles
+
+**Option B: Keep in service-registry**
+Leave these as feature-specific styled components (reasonable for now).
+
+**Recommendation**: **Option B** - These are generic enough to eventually extract, but not blocking. Focus on MetricCard, StatusBadge, and LiveIndicator first.
+
+---
+
+## Summary: Migration Blockers
+
+### Must Fix in @ui Before Migration
+
+1. **MetricCard** (CRITICAL):
+   - Add `onClick` + button wrapper for interactivity
+   - Add `isActive` prop with styling (border, background, shadow)
+   - Add hover effects (transform, shadow)
+   - Add optional `subtext` prop
+
+2. **StatusBadge** (CRITICAL):
+   - Add `onClick` + button element when interactive
+   - Add `isActive` prop with solid background + white text
+   - Add border styling (1px solid)
+   - Add hover effects (darker bg, stronger border)
+   - Consider adding 'primary' to variant union OR accept custom type mapping
+
+3. **LiveIndicator** (HIGH):
+   - Add `isActive` or `status` prop for connection state
+   - Add dynamic label support (activeLabel / inactiveLabel)
+   - Add state-based colors (success vs gray)
+   - Add state-based background styling
+
+### Can Defer
+
+4. **Form Components** (MEDIUM):
+   - Input, Select, SegmentedControl - nice to have but not blocking
+   - Can keep in service-registry for now
+

+
+## Prop Mapping Table (After Fixes)
+
+### StatCard → MetricCard
+
+| StatCard Prop | MetricCard Prop | Notes |
+|---------------|-----------------|-------|
+| `$variant` | `variant` | 1:1 mapping |
+| `$isActive` | `isActive` | NEW - need to add |
+| `onClick` | `onClick` | NEW - need to add |
+| `children` (StatValue) | `value` | Structured prop |
+| `children` (StatLabel) | `label` | Structured prop |
+| `children` (StatSubtext) | `subtext` | NEW - need to add |
+
+### TypeStatBadge → StatusBadge
+
+| TypeStatBadge Prop | StatusBadge Prop | Notes |
+|--------------------|------------------|-------|
+| `$type` | `variant` | Needs mapping (api→info, web→primary, etc.) |
+| `$isActive` | `isActive` | NEW - need to add |
+| `onClick` | `onClick` | NEW - need to add |
+| `children` | `children` | 1:1 (keep flexible) |
+
+### LiveIndicator → LiveIndicator
+
+| Service-Registry Prop | @ui Prop | Notes |
+|----------------------|----------|-------|
+| `$isConnected` | `isActive` | NEW - need to add |
+| (dynamic text) | `activeLabel` / `inactiveLabel` | NEW - need to add |
+| N/A | `variant` | Keep existing |
+| N/A | `color` | Keep existing (but auto-set based on state) |
+
+---
+
+## Implementation Strategy
+
+### Phase 1: Fix @ui Components (Blocking Work)
+1. Update `MetricCard` - add interactivity, active state, subtext
+2. Update `StatusBadge` - add interactivity, active state, border
+3. Update `LiveIndicator` - add connection state logic
+
+### Phase 2: Migrate service-registry
+1. Replace `StatCard` → `MetricCard`
+2. Replace `TypeStatBadge` → `StatusBadge` (with type mapping)
+3. Replace `LiveIndicator` → `LiveIndicator`
+4. Test filtering interactions
+5. Visual regression testing (Playwright)
+
+### Phase 3: Cleanup
+1. Delete `Dashboard.styles.ts` (StatCard, TypeStatBadge, etc.)
+2. Delete `Toolbar.styles.ts` (LiveIndicator)
+3. Keep SearchInput, FilterSelect, ViewModeToggle (defer extraction)

+## 📊 Component Mapping
+
+| Service-Registry | @ui Package | Status |
+|------------------|-------------|--------|
+| StatCard | MetricCard (ui-analytics) | ⚠️ Needs fixes |
+| TypeStatBadge | StatusBadge (ui-primitives) | ⚠️ Needs fixes |
+| LiveIndicator | LiveIndicator (ui-realtime) | ⚠️ Needs fixes |
+| SearchInput | - | ⏸️ Keep local (defer) |
+| FilterSelect | - | ⏸️ Keep local (defer) |
+| ViewModeToggle | - | ⏸️ Keep local (defer) |
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 Key Differences (Why Migration is Blocked)
+
+### StatCard → MetricCard
+**Problem**: MetricCard is read-only, StatCard is interactive
+- Current: `<button>` with onClick, active state, hover effects
+- @ui: `<div>` with no interactivity
+- **Impact**: All stat cards are clickable filters - CRITICAL feature
+
+### TypeStatBadge → StatusBadge
+**Problem**: StatusBadge is static, TypeStatBadge is interactive + has active state
+- Current: `<button>` with onClick, solid bg when active, borders
+- @ui: `<span>` with no interactivity, no active state
+- **Impact**: Type badges are clickable filters - CRITICAL feature
+
+### LiveIndicator (semantic mismatch)
+**Problem**: @ui LiveIndicator is for "LIVE" content, not connection status
+- Current: Shows "Connected" (green) / "Offline" (gray) with state
+- @ui: Always shows "LIVE" (red), no state concept
+- **Impact**: Need connection state logic - HIGH priority
+
+---
+
+## 🔧 Implementation Path
+
+### Step 1: Fix @ui (Upstream Work)
+Work in `/var/home/lilith/Code/@packages/@ui/`
+
+1. **MetricCard** (`packages/ui-analytics/src/MetricCard.tsx`):
+   ```tsx
+   interface MetricCardProps {
+     // ... existing props
+     isActive?: boolean;
+     onClick?: () => void;
+     subtext?: string;
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. **StatusBadge** (`packages/ui-primitives/src/StatusBadge.tsx`):
+   ```tsx
+   interface StatusBadgeProps {
+     // ... existing props
+     isActive?: boolean;
+     onClick?: () => void;
+   }
+   ```
+
+3. **LiveIndicator** (`packages/ui-realtime/src/LiveIndicator.tsx`):
+   ```tsx
+   interface LiveIndicatorProps {
+     // ... existing props
+     isActive?: boolean;
+     activeLabel?: string;
+     inactiveLabel?: string;
+   }
+   ```
+
+### Step 2: Migrate service-registry
+Once @ui fixes are published:
+
+1. Update package.json dependencies
+2. Replace styled components with @ui imports
+3. Add type-to-variant mapping for StatusBadge
+4. Test all filter interactions
+5. Visual regression test (Playwright)
+
+### Step 3: Cleanup
+1. Delete `Dashboard.styles.ts` (StatCard, TypeStatBadge)
+2. Delete LiveIndicator from `Toolbar.styles.ts`
+3. Keep SearchInput, FilterSelect, ViewModeToggle (defer to future)
+
+---
+
+## 📝 Usage Examples (After Migration)
+
+### MetricCard (replacing StatCard)
+```tsx
+<MetricCard
+  label="Healthy"
+  value={stats.healthy}
+  variant="success"
+  isActive={filters.status === 'healthy'}
+  onClick={() => toggleStatusFilter('healthy')}
+  subtext={`${percentage}% of total`}
+/>
+```
+
+### StatusBadge (replacing TypeStatBadge)
+```tsx
+const typeVariantMap = { api: 'info', web: 'primary', worker: 'warning', ml: 'success' };
+
+<StatusBadge
+  variant={typeVariantMap[type]}
+  isActive={filters.type === type}
+  onClick={() => toggleTypeFilter(type)}
+>
+  {type.toUpperCase()} {count}
+</StatusBadge>
+```
+
+### LiveIndicator (replacing custom LiveIndicator)
+```tsx
+<LiveIndicator
+  isActive={isConnected}
+  activeLabel="Connected"
+  inactiveLabel="Offline"
+  variant="compact"
+/>
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🚦 Current Status
+
+**BLOCKED**: Cannot migrate until @ui components support interactivity + active states
+
+**Next Action**: Work on @ui component enhancements (see Step 1 above)
+
+**Estimated Effort**:
+- @ui fixes: 2-3 hours
+- Migration: 1-2 hours
+- Testing: 1 hour
+
+**Total**: ~5 hours to full migration
+

+
+**See Also**: `COMPONENT_MIGRATION_DIFF.md` for detailed prop comparisons and styling differences
+
+---
+
+## 📦 Additional @ui Components Available
+
+### Found in @ui (not yet analyzed):
+
+**ui-primitives**:
+- `Input` - Could replace SearchInput
+- `Select` - Could replace FilterSelect  
+- `Button` - Already using for actions
+- `Badge` - Similar to StatusBadge
+- `Card` - Could be used for service cards
+- `Spinner` - Could replace LoadingPlaceholder
+
+**ui-layout**:
+- `ButtonGroup` - Could replace ViewModeToggle
+- `Stack` - Could replace various flex containers
+
+**ui-data**:
+- `Pagination` - Could replace custom PaginationContainer
+- `DataTable` - Might replace service list/grid views
+
+**ui-feedback**:
+- `Skeleton` - Could replace LoadingPlaceholder
+- `Toast` - For error messages
+- `Modal` - For expanded service details
+
+**ui-admin**:
+- `SystemHealthIndicator` - Might be relevant for service health
+
+### Quick Wins (After MetricCard/StatusBadge fixes):
+1. Replace LoadingPlaceholder → `<Skeleton>` (ui-feedback)
+2. Replace PaginationContainer → `<Pagination>` (ui-data)
+3. Consider SearchInput → `<Input>` (ui-primitives) with icon slot
+4. Consider FilterSelect → `<Select>` (ui-primitives)
+5. Consider ViewModeToggle → `<ButtonGroup>` (ui-layout)
+
+**Action**: Audit these components after critical blockers are fixed.

+
+## 🎯 TL;DR
+
+**Question**: Can we migrate service-registry to @ui components?
+
+**Answer**: **Not yet** - 3 critical @ui components need interactive features first.
+
+**Blockers**:
+1. `MetricCard` (ui-analytics) - needs onClick, isActive, hover effects, subtext
+2. `StatusBadge` (ui-primitives) - needs onClick, isActive, border, hover effects
+3. `LiveIndicator` (ui-realtime) - needs state prop, dynamic labels, state-based colors
+
+**Estimate**: ~5 hours total (3h @ui fixes + 2h migration + testing)
+
+---
+
+## 🚨 Critical Issues
+
+### Why We Can't Migrate Yet
+
+Service-registry uses **interactive filtering UI**:
+- Click stat cards to filter by status (healthy/unhealthy/unknown)
+- Click type badges to filter by service type (api/web/worker/ml)
+- Click filters show **active state** (highlighted border, colored background)
+
+@ui components are **read-only display components**:
+- MetricCard is a `<div>` with no onClick
+- StatusBadge is a `<span>` with no onClick
+- Neither supports active state styling
+
+**Impact**: All filtering breaks if we migrate without fixes.
+

+## 📊 Component Status
+
+| Service-Registry Component | @ui Equivalent | Status | Priority |
+|---------------------------|----------------|--------|----------|
+| StatCard | MetricCard (ui-analytics) | ⚠️ BLOCKED | CRITICAL |
+| TypeStatBadge | StatusBadge (ui-primitives) | ⚠️ BLOCKED | CRITICAL |
+| LiveIndicator | LiveIndicator (ui-realtime) | ⚠️ BLOCKED | HIGH |
+| LoadingPlaceholder | Skeleton (ui-feedback) | ✅ Ready | Quick Win |
+| PaginationContainer | Pagination (ui-data) | ❓ Need to check | Medium |
+| SearchInput | Input (ui-primitives) | ❓ Need to check | Low |
+| FilterSelect | Select (ui-primitives) | ❓ Need to check | Low |
+| ViewModeToggle | ButtonGroup (ui-layout) | ❓ Need to check | Low |
+
+**Legend**:
+- ⚠️ BLOCKED - Missing critical features
+- ✅ Ready - Can migrate immediately
+- ❓ Need to check - Component exists, needs audit
+
+---
+
+## 🔧 What Needs to Be Fixed
+
+### MetricCard (ui-analytics)
+
+**Add**:
+```typescript
+interface MetricCardProps {
+  // ... existing props
+  isActive?: boolean;      // Active state styling
+  onClick?: () => void;    // Make clickable
+  subtext?: string;        // Optional text below label
+}
+```
+
+**Styling**:
+- Wrap in button when onClick provided
+- Add active state: colored border, tinted background, box-shadow
+- Add hover effects: translateY(-2px), shadow (when not active)
+
+---
+
+### StatusBadge (ui-primitives)
+
+**Add**:
+```typescript
+interface StatusBadgeProps {
+  // ... existing props
+  isActive?: boolean;      // Active state styling
+  onClick?: () => void;    // Make clickable
+}
+```
+
+**Styling**:
+- Change to button when onClick provided
+- Add 1px border (color40 opacity)
+- Add active state: solid background, white text, solid border
+- Add hover effects: darker background, stronger border (when not active)
+
+---
+
+### LiveIndicator (ui-realtime)
+
+**Add**:
+```typescript
+interface LiveIndicatorProps {
+  // ... existing props
+  isActive?: boolean;           // Connection state
+  activeLabel?: string;         // "Connected"
+  inactiveLabel?: string;       // "Offline"
+}
+```
+
+**Styling**:
+- Support state-based colors (success when active, gray when inactive)
+- Support state-based backgrounds
+- Support dynamic labels based on state
+- Conditionally animate only when active
+
+---
+

+
+---
+
+### Phase 2: Migrate Service-Registry
+
+**Location**: `/var/home/lilith/Code/@applications/@lilith/lilith-platform/codebase/features/service-registry/`
+
+1. **Update dependencies** (~15 min)
+   ```bash
+   cd frontend
+   pnpm add @transquinnftw/ui-analytics@latest
+   pnpm add @transquinnftw/ui-primitives@latest
+   pnpm add @transquinnftw/ui-realtime@latest
+   ```
+
+2. **Replace StatCard** (~30 min)
+   - Import MetricCard
+   - Update props (children → label/value/subtext)
+   - Add isActive and onClick props
+   - Test filtering interactions
+
+3. **Replace TypeStatBadge** (~30 min)
+   - Import StatusBadge
+   - Create type-to-variant mapping
+   - Update props (children preserved)
+   - Add isActive and onClick props
+   - Test type filtering
+
+4. **Replace LiveIndicator** (~15 min)
+   - Import LiveIndicator
+   - Add isActive={isConnected}
+   - Add activeLabel/inactiveLabel
+   - Test connection state changes
+
+5. **Quick wins** (~30 min)
+   - Replace LoadingPlaceholder → Skeleton
+   - Consider Pagination, Input, Select (if compatible)
+
+---
+
+### Phase 3: Testing & Cleanup
+
+1. **Visual regression test** (~30 min)
+   - Use Playwright to verify UI matches original
+   - Check active states render correctly
+   - Check hover effects work
+   - Check filtering interactions
+
+2. **Cleanup** (~15 min)
+   - Delete replaced styled components from Dashboard.styles.ts
+   - Delete replaced styled components from Toolbar.styles.ts
+   - Keep remaining components (SearchInput, FilterSelect, etc. for now)
+
+3. **Documentation** (~15 min)
+   - Update component imports in README
+   - Document type-to-variant mapping
+   - Add migration notes to CHANGELOG
+
+---
+
+## 🧪 Testing Checklist
+
+After migration:
+
+- [ ] Stat cards are clickable
+- [ ] Clicking stat card filters services by status
+- [ ] Active stat card shows colored border + background
+- [ ] Inactive stat cards show hover effects (lift + shadow)
+- [ ] Type badges are clickable
+- [ ] Clicking type badge filters services by type
+- [ ] Active type badge shows solid background + white text
+- [ ] Inactive type badges show hover effects
+- [ ] Live indicator shows "Connected" when connected (green)
+- [ ] Live indicator shows "Offline" when disconnected (gray)
+- [ ] Live indicator animates only when connected
+- [ ] All filters can be cleared
+- [ ] Multiple filters work together
+- [ ] No console errors
+- [ ] No visual regressions
+
+---
+
+## 💡 Migration Benefits
+
+**After migration**:
+- ✅ Shared component library reduces duplication
+- ✅ Consistent styling across all features
+- ✅ Centralized theming
+- ✅ Better type safety (shared TypeScript types)
+- ✅ Easier maintenance (update @ui, all apps benefit)
+- ✅ Bonus features (sparklines, change indicators in MetricCard)
+
+**Current state**:
+- ❌ 100 custom styled components in service-registry
+- ❌ Duplicated styling logic
+- ❌ Harder to maintain consistency
+- ❌ No shared component testing
+
+---
+
+## 📞 Questions & Support
+
+**Blocker questions**:
+- "Can we migrate without fixing @ui?" → **No** - filtering will break
+- "Can we partially migrate?" → **Yes** - LoadingPlaceholder → Skeleton is safe
+- "How long will @ui fixes take?" → **~3 hours** for all three components
+
+**Design questions**:
+- Should MetricCard support both button and div modes? → Probably yes (as="button" pattern)
+- Should StatusBadge support custom variants beyond success/warning/error/info? → Yes for 'primary'
+- Should we create ConnectionIndicator instead of extending LiveIndicator? → Could, but extending is simpler

+
+## Migration Blockers (Visual Summary)
+
+| Component | Blocker | Visual Impact |
+|-----------|---------|---------------|
+| **StatCard** | Not clickable | Can't filter by clicking cards |
+| **StatCard** | No active state | Can't show which filter is active |
+| **TypeStatBadge** | Not clickable | Can't filter by type |
+| **TypeStatBadge** | No active state | Can't show selected type |
+| **TypeStatBadge** | No border | Visual consistency with design |
+| **LiveIndicator** | No state prop | Can't show connected/disconnected |
+| **LiveIndicator** | Fixed label | Always shows "LIVE" instead of status |
+
+**All interactive filtering features break without these fixes.**
+
+---
+
+## Side-by-Side: Active State Styling
+
+### StatCard Active State (REQUIRED)
+```css
+/* When isActive=true */
+border-color: ${variantColor};           /* e.g., success */
+background: ${variantColor}10;           /* 10% opacity tint */
+box-shadow: 0 0 0 2px ${variantColor}20; /* Outer glow */
+```
+
+### TypeStatBadge Active State (REQUIRED)
+```css
+/* When isActive=true */
+background: ${variantColor};             /* Solid color */
+color: #fff;                             /* White text */
+border: 1px solid ${variantColor};       /* Solid border */
+```
+
+**@ui Components**: Neither MetricCard nor StatusBadge support this styling.
+
+---
+
+## Hover Effects (Currently Missing in @ui)
+
+### StatCard Hover (when NOT active)
+```css
+&:hover {
+  border-color: ${variantColor};
+  transform: translateY(-2px);           /* Lift effect */
+  box-shadow: ${theme.shadows.md};       /* Card shadow */
+}
+```
+
+### TypeStatBadge Hover (when NOT active)
+```css
+&:hover {
+  background: ${variantColor}25;         /* Darker tint */
+  border-color: ${variantColor};         /* Stronger border */
+}
+```
+
+**@ui Components**: No hover effects defined.
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+1. **Fix @ui components** (add missing features above)
+2. **Publish updated @ui packages**
+3. **Migrate service-registry** (replace styled components)
+4. **Visual regression test** (ensure pixel-perfect match)
+
+**Critical Path**: Without active states + onClick, service-registry filtering is broken.
