Hey - I've found 1 issue, and left some high level feedback:
- Consider extracting the repeated "Select up to 4 units…" messaging into a shared constant so the help text and empty-state info stay aligned if the wording or limit changes in the future.

**Action:** Utilize built-in visual aids via Streamlit's native Material Symbols shortcodes (e.g. `icon=":material/search:"` for search, `icon=":material/menu_book:"` for database views). This improves UX and ensures pixel-perfect, cross-browser compatibility across Safari and Chrome without needing custom CSS.

**suggestion (typo):** Consider rephrasing the sentence about invalid actions for grammatical clarity.
The phrase "make an invalid action and then corrects them" is grammatically awkward because "them" refers to the user while "action" is the object. Consider rewording to something like "perform an invalid action and then be corrected" or "perform an invalid action and then correct it" so the subject–object relationship is clearer.

Pull request overview
This PR improves the Team Lab UX in the Streamlit explorer app by enforcing the “up to 4 units” constraint directly in the st.multiselect widget, eliminating the previous post-selection warning + truncation behavior. It aligns the implementation with Streamlit’s native interaction model and documents the design learning in the Palette journal.
Changes:
- Add
max_selections=4to the Team Lab “Units” multiselect and remove manual truncation/warning logic. - Refresh the Team Lab multiselect help text to better describe what the analysis covers (SP economy + defensive coverage).
- Document the UX rationale for using native
max_selectionsin.Jules/palette.md.

🎨 Palette UX Improvement
💡 What:
Added the
max_selections=4parameter to the Streamlitst.multiselectcomponent in the Team Lab section and removed the previous manual post-selection validation logic (which issued anst.warningand silently truncated the selection).🎯 Why:
Relying on manual post-selection validation leads to poor UX. It allows the user to make an invalid action (selecting a 5th item) and then corrects them. Using the native
max_selectionsparameter restricts the maximum number of items that can be selected, preventing the user from entering an invalid state in the first place, offering a smoother and more intuitive experience.♿ Accessibility:
Provides immediate, native feedback instead of a delayed warning toast.
📸 Before/After:
Before: User selects 5 items -> Gets warning -> Selection is truncated back to 4.
After: User selects 4 items -> Dropdown grays out remaining options with helper text "You can only select up to 4 options. Remove an option first."
