Components Statement
split-panel
Featured left panel + supporting right zone — one prominent claim beside the points that substantiate it.
Use when one prominent element (a heading, a hero number, a pull-quote, a phase) deserves a dedicated panel and the right side carries the supporting points. The default anchors a heading; variants reshape what the panel features: metric (hero number, light-left), pullquote (pull-quote), steps (numbered step-timeline), watermark (accent panel + letterform + meta footer). For a binary decision with a verdict, reach for split-compare.
When to use
- One feature, supporting points. When a single prominent element — a thesis heading, a hero number, a quote — deserves its own panel and the right side substantiates it. The panel is the anchor; the right is the evidence.
- Pick the variant by what the panel features. Heading (default), hero number (
metric), pull-quote (pullquote), phase + numbered steps (steps), or an accent panel with a letterform watermark and a metadata footer (watermark). - Points carry a title + body. Each right-side item leads with a bold title (lifted automatically) and a nested one-line body. Three or four points read best; more crowds the panel.
When not to use
- A binary decision with a verdict. If the slide weighs two options and lands a recommendation, use
split-compare— its right zone is a 2-option grid + a verdict card, whichsplit-paneldoes not provide. - Co-equal halves. split-panel is asymmetric — a featured panel beside supporting detail. For two co-equal options side by side, use
compare-prose. - A list with no feature. If there's no prominent left-panel element, a plain
listorcards-stackserves better — the panel earns its place only when one element leads.
Slots
| Slot | Selector | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
eyebrow | p:first-of-type > code | no | Optional inline-code label above the feature (the phase number under steps, the unit under metric). |
heading | h2 | yes | The featured element in the left panel — a heading by default; a hero number under metric; the phase name under steps. (Under pullquote, use a blockquote instead — see the variant.) |
lede | p | no | One-sentence framing paragraph under the feature. |
points | ul > li | yes | Right-side supporting points. Each li's lead is the point title — it renders bold automatically (no …); follow it with a nested - body line. |

metric — Metric — hero number owns the room
Flips the polarity: light left panel with one hero number (wrap a unit in an <em>, e.g. 114<em>%</em>, to render it smaller — note plain *%* is not CommonMark emphasis next to a digit), dark right panel with the supporting findings. The h2 is the number; the inline-code eyebrow is the unit label; the lede is the measurement context. Was the standalone split-metric component before 2026-06-07.

`Net Revenue Retention`
## 114<em>%</em>
Trailing twelve months, top-50 accounts, versus a 108% target.
- Expansion outran churn
- Seat growth in the installed base more than covered the two logos lost to consolidation.
- Concentration is the watch-item
- The top ten accounts drive 41% of the number; a single departure swings it three points. pullquote — Quote — pull-quote feature
The left panel commits half the slide to one quotation (display italic on a dark canvas) with an optional inline-code attribution; the right panel spells out the implications. Write a > blockquote instead of an h2. Was the standalone split-statement component before 2026-06-07.

> We do not have a demand problem. We have a coverage problem.
`VP Sales · Q2 board review`
- Reframes the miss
- The pipeline gap is structural, not a market signal — it followed the field reorg.
- Points at the fix
- Coverage is a staffing decision the room can make today, not a quarter-long bet. steps — Steps — numbered step-timeline
The left panel anchors a phase (inline-code phase number as a watermark + heading + summary); the right panel renders an ordered list as a numbered step-timeline with a connecting line. Use ol for numbered discs. Was the standalone split-steps component before 2026-06-07.

`02`
## Calibrate
What the second phase produces before rollout begins.
1. Tune the weights
- Score real outcomes against the model and adjust until the error band is acceptable.
2. Make the log mandatory
- Every decision is recorded with its signals; the audit trail starts here.
3. Sign off the baseline
- Written agreement on scope before the rollout phase opens. watermark — Watermark — accent panel + letterform
An accent left panel with a large letterform watermark (the heading's first letter), an h5 section rubric, and an optional Audience · / Intent · metadata footer on the right. Use for an overview/showcase panel. Was the standalone split-list component before 2026-06-07.

## Scorecard
### What the framework measures
- Signal quality
- Whether the inputs are trustworthy enough to act on without re-checking.
- Decision latency
- How long from signal to a logged, owned decision.
- Reversal rate
- How often a logged decision is later overturned, and why. mirror — Mirror — swap left and right
Flips the featured panel to the right and the supporting zone to the left. Use when the deck's reading rhythm wants the panel on the trailing side.

`Eyebrow context`
## Headline on the right-hand panel.
One-sentence framing paragraph.
- First point
- Supporting detail.
- Second point
- Supporting detail.
