When to use it

Software install flows, pipeline status displays, or developer-tool UIs needing ambient terminal-style progress.

When not to

Light or colorful backgrounds — colors are hardcoded dark navy. Not suitable as a real progress bar without external control.

Working with an AI agent

Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:

Change PHASES to ['Fetch','Build','Test','Deploy'] and set --pg10-accent to #f59e0b for a warm amber conduit. Theme: dark tokens live in :root, the light variant in :root[data-theme="light"]; ?theme=light or a {type:'forever:theme'} postMessage switches at runtime.

Safe to edit

  • phase labels (PHASES array)
  • packet count (POOL=10)
  • progress speed (dt*0.085 coefficient)
  • accent colors (--pg10-accent, --pg10-accent2)
  • packet march speed (SPEED=0.18)
  • hold pause duration (1300ms)
  • theme tokens (:root dark defaults + [data-theme=light] overrides)

Keep intact

  • IIFE wrapper
  • prefers-reduced-motion guard
  • visibilitychange pause/resume
  • aria progressbar + aria-valuenow updates
  • theme hook (?theme= bootstrap + forever:theme message listener + theme tokens)

Known limitations

  • Light re-theme via the [data-theme=light] token block; catalog bg/accent describe the dark default
  • Auto-cycles; no external API to control progress
  • Packet positions normalized, not tied to real bytes
