Section authoring panel — describe → compose → bind → emit a spec

1 · Describe the section

Display name Package name Kind Ambition Applies to template types

premises_based local_service_area sports_events

Niches (comma-separated) Notes / intent Reference screenshot URL (visual reference only)

2 · Compose — add components

Click a component to add it as a slot. Dashed = a catalogue gap (no library component yet) — you can still author the slot; it becomes a build request.

3 · Bind each slot to a field

No slots yet — add components from the left. Each slot binds to a data field, a computed resolver (e.g. a CTA), or is static authored text.

4 · The section spec

This spec is the bridge artifact. Save draft stores it under sections-proto/drafts/; the emitter turns a saved draft into a real slipstream-sections package (package.json + template.twig + fields.json + style.css), which the Section Processor then verifies.
