963 markdown files reformatted with the repository's pinned prettier so pnpm format:check covers the folded tree like every other repo file. The formatter's embedded-language pass also normalized code fences (TS semicolons, closed HTML tags in examples, lowercased CSS hex colors, one renumbered list that skipped an index). Alphanumeric token deltas vs the fold commit were audited file-by-file; all are formatter-equivalent markup normalizations plus the four sanitized skills.

Create Explicit Component Variants
Instead of one component with many boolean props, create explicit variant components. Each variant composes the pieces it needs. The code documents itself.
Incorrect (one component, many modes):
// What does this component actually render?
<Composer isThread isEditing={false} channelId="abc" showAttachments showFormatting={false} />
Correct (explicit variants):
// Immediately clear what this renders
<ThreadComposer channelId="abc" />
// Or
<EditMessageComposer messageId="xyz" />
// Or
<ForwardMessageComposer messageId="123" />
Each implementation is unique, explicit and self-contained. Yet they can each use shared parts.
Implementation:
function ThreadComposer({ channelId }: { channelId: string }) {
return (
<ThreadProvider channelId={channelId}>
<Composer.Frame>
<Composer.Input />
<AlsoSendToChannelField channelId={channelId} />
<Composer.Footer>
<Composer.Formatting />
<Composer.Emojis />
<Composer.Submit />
</Composer.Footer>
</Composer.Frame>
</ThreadProvider>
);
}
function EditMessageComposer({ messageId }: { messageId: string }) {
return (
<EditMessageProvider messageId={messageId}>
<Composer.Frame>
<Composer.Input />
<Composer.Footer>
<Composer.Formatting />
<Composer.Emojis />
<Composer.CancelEdit />
<Composer.SaveEdit />
</Composer.Footer>
</Composer.Frame>
</EditMessageProvider>
);
}
function ForwardMessageComposer({ messageId }: { messageId: string }) {
return (
<ForwardMessageProvider messageId={messageId}>
<Composer.Frame>
<Composer.Input placeholder="Add a message, if you'd like." />
<Composer.Footer>
<Composer.Formatting />
<Composer.Emojis />
<Composer.Mentions />
</Composer.Footer>
</Composer.Frame>
</ForwardMessageProvider>
);
}
Each variant is explicit about:
- What provider/state it uses
- What UI elements it includes
- What actions are available
No boolean prop combinations to reason about. No impossible states.
