FacetFilter

Data

Multi-select faceted filter rendered as a dropdown of toggles.

import { FacetFilter } from "@elabs-ai/components-data";
Install
npm install @elabs-ai/components-tokens @elabs-ai/components-ui @elabs-ai/components-data

Skipping the @source line is the most common first failure: Tailwind does not scan node_modules, so every component renders unstyled. The one-time wiring

Add the brand-ui FacetFilter component (from @elabs-ai/components-data) to this project.

1. Read https://elabs-ai.com/llms.txt first: it maps every package and the rules. If you can use MCP servers, connect https://elabs-ai.com/mcp and use its search, docs and tokens tools. If not, run the same lookups in the terminal: `npx -y @elabs-ai/components-cli search "<what you need>"` and `npx -y @elabs-ai/components-cli docs <Component>`.
2. Look FacetFilter up before writing code: `npx -y @elabs-ai/components-cli docs FacetFilter` prints its real props, variants, what it pairs with and what to avoid.
3. If @elabs-ai/components-data is not installed yet: `pnpm add @elabs-ai/components-tokens @elabs-ai/components-ui @elabs-ai/components-data` (or `npm install @elabs-ai/components-tokens @elabs-ai/components-ui @elabs-ai/components-data`). If this is the first brand-ui package in the project, wire it once: import `@elabs-ai/components-tokens/styles.css` plus the `themes/light.css` and `themes/dark.css` stylesheets in the CSS entry, add one Tailwind `@source` line per installed @elabs-ai package (Tailwind does not scan node_modules, so without it everything renders unstyled), and wrap the app root in `ThemeProvider` from `@elabs-ai/components-tokens`.
4. Use it here: [the screen or file, and what it should show]
5. Rules: use only @elabs-ai/components-* components and the semantic tokens — no raw colours, no raw font sizes, no arbitrary Tailwind values. Look up each component's real props with the docs tool before you use it; never guess a prop.
6. Done means: the typecheck passes, `npx -y @elabs-ai/components-cli audit src --strict` reports nothing, and you have opened the app and looked at every screen you touched in the light and the dark theme.

With Selection

With a selection the trigger carries a count badge and the menu gains "Clear filters".

Toolbar Alignment

#346 — the filter row a `FacetFilter` actually lives in. Its trigger used to take `Button size="sm"` (`h-8`) while every sibling control lands on `h-9` (`Select`'s default rung, `Input`'s hardcoded height, `DatePicker` and a plain `Button` via `Button`'s own default), so the row's top and bottom edges didn't line up. The trigger now inherits that same default. The play function is the acceptance test: it MEASURES every control's rendered box in a real browser (`getBoundingClientRect`) and asserts one height and one top edge across all five. A class-list assertion would only restate the source.
