Name the flat reservation and count the hairline it lies under, so the last pixel of shift goes too (via update-page on MediaWiki MCP Server)

New page

/* Module:Countdown
*
* Two states. Before the gadget runs — and forever, without JavaScript — the
* element holds a date range and is styled as a plain readout. Once the gadget
* has built the digit stack it replaces that range with a label and three units
* and adds `t-countdown--live`, and the rules below take over. The range is
* dropped rather than hidden: the stack says everything it said and more, so
* keeping it would only have assistive tech read the same span of time twice.
*
* The gadget also adds one of three tense classes — `--upcoming`, `--running`,
* `--ended` — which is what the colour keys off. Nothing here reaches outside
* the countdown element, which is the point: the card hosting it never has to
* learn what a clock is.
*
* ARRANGEMENT. The clock stands its units in a column by default, for a card
* that gives it a slot down one side, and lies them down into a strip when
* there is no such slot. Two things ask for the strip, and they are different
* questions: below 639px the media query does, because every card is stacked
* there; and at any width `--flat` does, for a card that is stacked throughout
* and therefore has no viewport question to ask. A card must never restyle the
* clock itself — the arrangement is the clock's, the slot is the card's.
*/
.t-countdown {
/* The caption's size, named because three rules need it: the caption draws
* itself with it, and the reservation below is measured in it. */
--countdown-caption: 0.62rem;
/* One unit, as tall as the gadget will build it. The digits carry
* line-height 1, so they are exactly their own size; the caption adds its
* own height plus the 0.25em that separates them, hence the 1.25. */
--countdown-unit: calc(var(--countdown-size, 3rem) + var(--countdown-caption) * 1.25);
/* The reservation for a clock lying down: one unit row, not four. Named
* rather than repeated because all three arrangements that lie the clock
* down need it, and they already have enough to keep in step.
*
* The trailing 1px is the hairline. Lying down it runs across the BLOCK
* axis, and box-sizing is border-box, so it counts against the height —
* standing up the same hairline is on the inline edge and costs nothing,
* which is why the reservation below has no such term. */

/* THE COLUMN THE CLOCK STANDS IN, pinned rather than left to its content,
* and the shift is only the first of two reasons.
*
* The range and the units are different widths — 268px against 87 — so
* going live shrank the clock by 181 and rewrapped the card's prose beside
* it. And left to itself the column's width depends on how long the DATE in
* the settings happens to be, so an event running into September gave the
* body less room to set than one running into May. Neither is something the
* card next to it should be able to feel.
*
* 7rem leaves 80px of content box once the padding is out, which clears
* both sides: the units need 54px, and the range's longest unbreakable word
* is "September" at 76. All three arrangements that lie the clock down
* already set `inline-size: 100%`, so this needs no reset of its own. */

padding: var(--space-md);
/* THE ROOM THE CLOCK WILL NEED, reserved before it needs it: a label row and
* three unit rows. The two states hold different things — a date range now,
* a label and three counters once the gadget runs — and left to themselves
* they are different heights, so going live grew the card under the reader
* and pushed every band below it down the page (11px standing up, 30px
* lying down, measured). Reserving the taller of the two in BOTH means the
* swap changes what the clock says and never how much room it takes.
*
* Derived from the same tokens that draw a unit rather than measured off a
* screenshot, so it cannot drift from what it is reserving for. */

/* The hairline is the clock's own edge, not the card's: the card takes a

* Colour is reinforcement here, never the only carrier: the label already says
* "Coming", "Ends" or "Ended" in words, so nothing is lost on a monochrome
* display or to a screen reader, and no visually-hidden partner is owed.
*
* The stripe is Module:Entity/Ports' overlay retuned for the area. Ports draws
* 2px lines on a 6px period at alpha 0.10 over a 32px pill; the same rule here
* covers roughly twenty times that, and its average lift — duty cycle times
* alpha, 0.033 — visibly washes the colour underneath toward grey. The line
* weight stays at 2px because that is the house signature; the spacing and the
* alpha come down, landing at a lift of 0.012, about a third of Ports.

* These rules must stay BELOW the tense block. They are single-class like it,
* so which wins is decided on source order, and the strip has to be able to
* move the tense colour from the inline edge to the block edge.
*

* cannot share a block across a media query. Keep them identical.
