Description

This adds a controlled, headless Flow primitive for rendering controller-driven, multi-step interfaces:

<Flow.Root
  value={controller.status}
  direction={controller.direction}
>
  <Flow.Step ids={['enter-password', 'enter-password-pending', 'enter-password-error']}>
    <PasswordView {...passwordViewProps} />
  </Flow.Step>

  <Flow.Step ids={['enter-code', 'enter-code-pending', 'enter-code-error']}>
    <OtpView {...otpViewProps} />
  </Flow.Step>
</Flow.Root>

Flow.Root owns no flow state. The Controller supplies the active value and transition direction as -1 | 1. There is no trigger or uncontrolled API because navigation remains the Controller’s responsibility.

Each Flow.Step accepts multiple state ids. Moving between ids represented by the same step updates that view without starting a transition. Moving to another step:

  • Mounts the incoming step with data-starting-style.
  • Keeps the outgoing step mounted with data-ending-style until its CSS animation finishes.
  • Makes the outgoing step inert and hides it from the accessibility tree.
  • Preserves the outgoing step’s last active children so Controller updates cannot replace its content during exit.

The initially active step renders immediately without enter-animation state.

Flow.Root renders an unstyled viewport and measures the active or entering step. It publishes the result through --cl-flow-step-height, allowing a styled adapter to animate the viewport height. The root retains data-initial through its first measured frame so the initial height is never animated.

Steps publish --cl-flow-transition-direction as exactly 1 or -1, allowing CSS to reverse directional motion without branching in React:

.flow-step[data-starting-style] {
  transform: translateX(calc(var(--cl-flow-transition-direction) * 1.5rem));
}

.flow-step[data-ending-style] {
  transform: translateX(calc(var(--cl-flow-transition-direction) * -1.5rem));
}

Swingset includes documentation and an interactive example demonstrating directional enter/exit choreography, changing viewport heights, initial-animation suppression, and reduced-motion handling.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds the headless Flow primitive with controlled steps, directional transitions, height measurement, accessibility state, public exports, tests, documentation, and Storybook coverage. It adds the ./flow package export and build entry. It registers six reverification story modules and removes the OTP Sizes story registration. An empty changeset file is also added.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to dfaab

The PR adds a new Flow primitive while also changing public UI behavior and package exports. The current version may retain incorrect layout state, break existing consumers, allow empty OTP submissions, lose keyboard focus, or fail CommonJS resolution, and it lacks required release and documentation updates; these issues should be addressed or explicitly accepted before merging.

Clear the height when no step is active.

Line 29 returns without resetting activeStepHeight. If value has no matching Flow.Step, or the active step unmounts, --cl-flow-step-height retains the previous step height. Styled roots can then keep an incorrect viewport height.

## Example

The controls in this demo stand in for a controller. The animation CSS belongs to the example rather than the primitive.

<Story
name='Default'
storyModule={FlowStories}
/>

## Usage

```tsx
import { Flow } from '@clerk/headless/flow';

<Flow.Root
value={controller.status}
direction={controller.direction}
>
<Flow.Step ids={['enter-password', 'enter-password-pending', 'enter-password-error']}>
<PasswordView {...passwordViewProps} />
</Flow.Step>

<Flow.Step ids={['enter-code', 'enter-code-pending', 'enter-code-error']}>
<OtpView {...otpViewProps} />
</Flow.Step>
</Flow.Root>;
```

Flow is controlled and has no trigger. The controller owns the active state and supplies `direction` as `1` or `-1`. Grouping related state ids in one step keeps that view mounted when, for example, `enter-code` becomes `enter-code-pending`.

## Parts

| Part | Default Element | Description |
| ----------- | --------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `Flow.Root` | `<div>` | Provides state and publishes the active step's measured height |
| `Flow.Step` | `<div>` | Renders while active or while its exit animation is still running |

Both parts accept a `render` prop for polymorphic rendering and standard HTML attributes for their default element.

28-36: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Add explicit return types to the exported functions.

These exported functions rely on inferred JSX return types. Declare their return types to keep the public TypeScript contract stable.

  • packages/ui/src/mosaic/blocks/reverification/reverification-backup-code.tsx#L28-L36: add the component return type.
  • packages/ui/src/mosaic/blocks/reverification/reverification-help.tsx#L17-L17: add the component return type.
  • packages/ui/src/mosaic/blocks/reverification/reverification-otp.tsx#L37-L48: add the component return type.
  • packages/ui/src/mosaic/blocks/reverification/reverification-password.tsx#L29-L37: add the component return type.
  • packages/swingset/src/stories/reverification-story-card.tsx#L4-L4: add the component return type.
  • packages/swingset/src/stories/reverification-backup-code.stories.tsx#L18-L18: add the story return type.
  • packages/swingset/src/stories/reverification-help.stories.tsx#L17-L17: add the story return type.

As per coding guidelines, “Always define explicit return types for functions, especially public APIs.”

49-71: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Keep focus on the pending method.

Line 57 disables the method button that the user just activated. Native disabled removes that focused button from the tab order. Keyboard users lose their position while the spinner is active. packages/ui/src/mosaic/components/button/submit-button.tsx Lines 60-124 avoids this behavior for pending actions.

Keep the pending method focusable with aria-disabled and an event guard. Set aria-busy on that method. Disable only the other methods.

Proposed fix
           {methods.map(method => {
             const isPending = pendingMethodId === method.id;
+            const hasPendingMethod = pendingMethodId !== undefined;
             return (
               <Item.Root
                 key={method.id}

Reject non-positive OTP lengths.

length={0} makes canSubmit true when value is empty. The form can then call onSubmit without an OTP. Require a positive safe integer before enabling submission.

Proposed fix
