+# VE HTML Template Generator Skill
+
+Quick guide for using `ve-html-template-generator`.
+
+## What to provide in the prompt
+
+Minimum required inputs:
+
+- `client`: client slug (example: `galaxy-grill`)
+- `html`: local HTML path (preferred) or URL
+
+Minimal prompt:
+
+```text
+Use $ve-html-template-generator.
+client: galaxy-grill
+html: /Users/you/Downloads/galaxy-grill-location-source.html
+```
+
+## Optional inputs
+
+- `customRoot`: defaults to `packages/visual-editor/src/components/custom/<client>`
+- `starterRoot`: defaults to `starter/src/templates/<client>`
+- `scope`: what to include/exclude from source page
+- `notes`: constraints for slot structure, component behavior, etc.
+
+Example with optional inputs:
+
+```text
+Use $ve-html-template-generator.
+client: acme
+html: /tmp/acme-homepage.html
+scope: Exclude legal policy bands and cookie modal markup.
+notes:
+- Split every heading/body/cta into focused nested slots.
+- Lock generated slot surfaces for editing-only use (`allow={[]}` on all section and nested layout slot renders).
+- Keep hours entity-defaulted.
+- If source has multiple hours bands (for example store + drive-thru), generate separate entity-bound hours slots for each band.
+- Do not use any sibling client templates under `starter/src/templates/*` or sibling custom client folders under `packages/visual-editor/src/components/custom/*` as reference; derive structure from source HTML + shared VE components only.
+- Nearby Stores/Locations should follow shared NearbyLocations-style dynamic behavior, not hardcoded static store links.
+- Build client-local slots/atoms by adapting the closest shared generic baseline first, then layer client-specific changes.
+- For FAQ/Q&A bands, adapt shared FAQ behavior patterns first (question/answer modeling + interaction), then restyle to match source.
+- For footer social links, baseline against shared `FooterSocialLinksSlot` behavior (platform-specific fields + URL validation + icon rendering), not text-link lists.
+- Decompose location summary content into nested focused slots (back-link, heading/meta, status, CTA), not one omnibus summary slot.
+- For user-visible copy props, use `translatableString` (or entity-backed string fields) so embedded fields work; reserve plain `text` fields for URLs/class names/ids.
+- Ignore likely hidden utility labels from HTML in nav/footer (for example `Top Links`, `Actions`, `Menu`) unless there is source evidence they are visibly rendered.
+- Any CTA-like label must have an actionable link/href (or CTA entity). Never render CTA labels as plain non-interactive text.
+- Compose complex layouts grid-first using shared Core Information/slot baselines, then wrap into client-bespoke section/slot names.
+- Use shared map/image patterns (no map iframes, no backgroundImageUrl text fields).
+- Keep functionality first: preserve entity wiring (especially hours) and real map behavior before visual refinements.
+- Match header/footer chrome to the source site (dark or light) and preserve readable contrast.
+- Include source-theme header/footer background options (for example source brand blue), not only white/neutral choices.
+- Use full-bleed hero/promo shells only when source sections are edge-to-edge (`px-0 md:px-0` + `max-w-none`).
+- Render rich text slots via `resolveComponentData` output (React element or string), not html-only parsing.
+- If source has media + list sections (for example amenities with a lead image), keep a dedicated media slot plus list/content slots.
+- When merging similar sections, keep optional slots (like CTA slots) and add top-level show/hide toggles instead of removing those slots.
+- For sections with multiple slots, expose top-level show/hide toggles for most slots (`slot count - 1` coverage target).
+- When store-info includes hours/location/map/parking, preserve stacked order (`Hours -> Location -> Map -> Parking`) unless source evidence clearly differs.
+```
+
+## What the skill generates
+
+Under `packages/visual-editor/src/components/custom/<client>/`:
+
+- `atoms/*.tsx`
+- `components/*Section.tsx`
+- `components/*Slot.tsx`
+- `index.ts`
+- `ve.ts`
+
+Under `packages/visual-editor/src/components/categories/`:
+
+- `<Client>SectionsCategory.tsx`
+- `<Client>SlotsCategory.tsx`
+
+Shared package registration updates:
+
+- `packages/visual-editor/src/components/configs/mainConfig.tsx` (visible `<client>Sections` + hidden `<client>Slots` category wiring)
+- `packages/visual-editor/src/components/categories/index.ts` (category exports)
+- `packages/visual-editor/src/components/index.ts` (generated client exports)
+
+Under `starter/src/templates/<client>/`:
+
+- `<client>-config.tsx`
+- `<client>-template.tsx`
+
+Starter is a consumer-only wrapper. It should not be the source of truth for generated sections/slots/atoms.
+
+## Validate output
+
+Run validator:
+
+```bash
+python3 skills/ve-html-template-generator/scripts/validate_client_template.py --client-path starter/src/templates/<client>
+```
+
+Optional screenshot smoke test scaffold:
+
+```bash
+python3 skills/ve-html-template-generator/scripts/scaffold_client_template_smoke_test.py \
+  --client-slug <client> \
+  --template-path starter/src/templates/<client>/<client>-template.tsx \
+  --config-path starter/src/templates/<client>/<client>-config.tsx
+```
+
+Run generated smoke test:
+
+```bash
+pnpm -C packages/visual-editor exec vitest run \
+  src/components/generated/<Client>Template.smoke.test.tsx
+```
+
+On first run for a newly generated test, seed screenshot baselines:
+
+```bash
+pnpm -C packages/visual-editor exec vitest run --update \
+  src/components/generated/<Client>Template.smoke.test.tsx
+```
+
+Smoke screenshots should capture full page height so lower-page sections (for example footer/legal) are validated.
+
+Default source-vs-generated section parity scaffold (captures source HTML and generated section screenshots):
+
+```bash
+python3 skills/ve-html-template-generator/scripts/scaffold_client_template_section_parity_test.py \
+  --client-slug <client> \
+  --html-path /path/to/source.html \
+  --config-path starter/src/templates/<client>/<client>-config.tsx \
+  --overwrite
+```
+
+Run section parity test:
+
+```bash
+pnpm -C packages/visual-editor exec vitest run \
+  src/components/generated/<Client>Template.section-parity.test.tsx
+```
+
+For first-time baseline capture of a new generated parity test, run once with `--update`.
+
+This section parity run is now the default post-generation step for the skill.
+After the initial parity run, apply one focused correction pass immediately, then rerun smoke + section parity.
+After those reruns, run final build checks before considering the task done:
+
+```bash
+pnpm -C packages/visual-editor build
+pnpm -C starter build
+```
+
+Default behavior for this skill is now: `generate -> parity -> correction pass -> rerun -> build gate`.
+
+Optional section parity controls:
+
+```bash
+CLIENT_TEMPLATE_SECTION_PARITY_LIMIT=10 \
+CLIENT_TEMPLATE_SECTION_PARITY_ALL_VIEWPORTS=1 \
+pnpm -C packages/visual-editor exec vitest run \
+  src/components/generated/<Client>Template.section-parity.test.tsx
+```
+
+Optional full-page parity scaffold:
+
+```bash
+python3 skills/ve-html-template-generator/scripts/scaffold_client_template_visual_parity_test.py \
+  --client-slug <client> \
+  --html-path /path/to/source.html \
+  --config-path starter/src/templates/<client>/<client>-config.tsx \
+  --overwrite
+```
+
+Run parity test:
+
+```bash
+pnpm -C packages/visual-editor exec vitest run \
+  src/components/generated/<Client>Template.visual-parity.test.tsx
+```
+
+For first-time baseline capture of a new generated parity test, run once with `--update`.
+
+Screenshot parity should stay advisory-first: use it to find layout/media/styling gaps, but keep shared baseline functionality and slot wiring intact.
+By default, parity should drive one focused correction pass, not open-ended restyling loops.
+
+## From-scratch verification
+
+Use this before evaluating a new generation:
+
+1. Clear or avoid old saved layout data for the target entity (`document.__.layout`).
+2. Open editor and drag the new client sections from left nav.
+3. Verify header/footer nested slots are clickable/editable (brand/nav/utility, signup/links/legal).
+4. Verify default values are visible in the props panel before edits.
+
+Old saved layouts from earlier generations can hide or distort current slot behavior.
