Description

Summary

Generate InfoLabel with its canonical contract, implementation, tests, stories, platform validation, and explicit package export so supplemental form help has a consistent trigger and surface. Delivery is intentionally downstream of both Label and the shared Popover infrastructure.

Observed. info-label is entry info-label in the canonical catalog and has no
implementation in packages/agentic/components. Upstream describes it as: Composed form-field labeling element pairing a Label with a trailing icon-only Subtle Button trigger that opens a Popover containing supplemental help. Covers two weights, three sizes, the required-asterisk slot, an Open toggle for the Popover, and a Disabled visual state mirroring the associated control.

Goal

Generate the info-label component in
packages/agentic/components/src/components against the
canonical Fluent Flex spec, with the colocated coverage, stories, and platform
validation the package requires, and export it explicitly from
src/index.ts.

Stage

Stage 3 (production). Wave 3 - focus-orchestrated and composed.

Why it matters

Observed. The canonical catalog has 50 components and the agentic library has
generated 18. info-label is one of the 32 in the gap, enumerated in
the missing-components index.

Inferred. It is a composed or focus-orchestrated component whose blockers resolve once the wave 2 overlay stack and the focus decision land, so it is a direct measure of whether those foundations were built correctly.

Observed current state

Canonical spec and source
Field Value
Canonical spec plugins/components/skills/info-label/SKILL.md with usage.md, web/tokens.yaml, web/accessibility.md, and web/interaction.md, at x3-design/fluent-design @ d334acf
Upstream tier molecule
Upstream catalog key info-label in component-map.yaml
Local staged spec packages/agentic/components/specs/info-label - SPEC.md, usage.md, interaction.md, accessibility.md, tokens.yaml, blockers.md
Local implementation None. No src/components/info-label directory exists
Closest existing FURN or V1 implementation

Note on platform canon. Where a legacy package has platform-specific files, the
desktop path (.win32, .windows, .macos, or the unsuffixed cross-platform file)
is the compatibility reference. .ios, .android, and .mobile variants are not
treated as the cross-platform canonical implementation.

Local dependencies

Known blockers

Observed (blockers.md, blocker class B in the index).

Recorded as blocked with reference to the Popover blocker record; the analysis explicitly reviewed specs/popover/blockers.md and classified InfoLabel as a composed field affordance that is blocked for pure React Native.

Reassessment.

Valid, and derivative. The blocker is inherited from Popover. Inferred: unblocked by popover plus label.

Scope

  • Ingest or promote the spec into the component directory in the generated shape
    (SPEC.md plus a spec/ folder), per
    spec-ingestion-and-generation.md.
  • Establish the public contract first: variants, slots, native props, accessibility,
    interaction states, and platform behavior.
  • Implement the required file structure from
    src/components/AGENTS.md:
    info-label.types.ts, info-label.styles.ts, use*.ts, use*Styles.ts, render*.tsx, and
    the assembly module with a displayName.
  • Style from Flex tokens first and record genuine token gaps rather than substituting
    unrelated values.
  • Export the component, its public types, and the state, style, and render stages
    explicitly from src/index.ts under component-qualified unstable names.
  • Compose label rather than duplicating its typography and required-asterisk contract.
  • Use the icon-only Subtle button variant of the existing button for the trigger.
  • Classify the Open axis: a disclosure the user drives is self-driving and takes the open / defaultOpen / onOpenChange triple.

Out of scope

  • Changing the contract of an existing generated component, unless this task explicitly
    calls for it above; raise it as its own item.
  • Building shared infrastructure owned by another task: overlay hosting
    (popover), roving focus (focus-zone.md), spec
    ingestion (spec-ingestion-and-generation.md),
    or the coverage contract (component-test-strategy.md).
  • Migrating any legacy FURN consumer onto this component.
  • Mobile platform support; the applicable upstream companion is web, retargeted to
    React Native for Windows and macOS.

Deliverables

  • src/components/info-label/ implementing the full required file structure.
  • SPEC.md and a spec/ companion folder with provenance recording the upstream path,
    SHA, and ingestion date.
  • Colocated info-label.test.tsx, info-label.types.test.ts, and info-label.stories.tsx.
  • Snapshot coverage where the visual contract is state-dependent, or a recorded
    exemption.
  • Explicit exports from src/index.ts, with src/index.test.ts updated.
  • A changeset, per the repository's version management rules.
  • A recorded readiness level with its supporting evidence.

Required coverage, stories, and platform validation

Runtime and type coverage:

  • Both weights across all three sizes.
  • Required asterisk present and absent.
  • Disabled mirrors the associated control and disables the trigger.
  • Open and closed, both controlled and uncontrolled.
  • The trigger has an action-oriented accessible name and reports its expanded state.
  • User style and handler forwarding, and that user styles are applied after component
    styles.
  • Compile-time slot acceptance and any mutually exclusive props.

Stories: a typed Meta titled Components/InfoLabel, an args-driven Default, a
grouped Overview when the contract has several axes, one focused story per variant
axis, and an interactive story for each stateful axis. Self-driving axes expose
default<State> as the control; externally driven selection is owned by the story with
React.useState. Identity-changing axes are not exposed as controls.

Platform validation: the component's stories render and behave correctly on macOS
and on React Native Windows Fabric through apps/storybook,
including hover, pressed, disabled, focus, optional-slot, and constrained-content
scenarios. Add a stable root testID if the component joins the automated smoke set.

Acceptance criteria

  • src/components/info-label exists with the required file structure and a displayName.
  • Every variant axis in the component's SPEC.md is implemented, or a deviation is recorded in the spec.
  • The component styles from Flex tokens, with any genuine token gap recorded rather than approximated.
  • Focus feedback renders through FocusVisual; no outline* props and no React Native Windows native focus visuals are introduced.
  • State precedence is explicit: disabled wins over pressed, which wins over hovered.
  • Every stateful axis is classified as self-driving or externally driven, and both paths are covered.
  • Runtime, type, and story coverage satisfy the package coverage contract.
  • The component, its public types, and its pipeline stages are exported explicitly from src/index.ts, and src/index.test.ts covers them.
  • The component's stories render on macOS and on React Native Windows Fabric.
  • yarn workspace @fluentui-react-native/components format, lint, build, and test pass, and the Storybook bundle succeeds for both desktop platforms.
  • A readiness level is recorded with its supporting evidence.
  • A changeset is included.

Dependencies and ordering

  • Blocked by wave 2, either directly or through a wave 2 dependency listed above.
  • Gated by component-test-strategy.md: the component must satisfy the coverage contract on arrival rather than being retrofitted.
  • Gated by readiness-model.md: the target readiness level must be stated before the work starts.
  • Consumes the Infrastructure workstream (storybook-e2e.md) for automated macOS and Windows Fabric validation; until it lands, platform validation is manual.

Risks and open decisions

  1. It sits on top of two other missing components, so its schedule is the maximum of theirs.
  2. The popover content is interactive help, so focus must move into it, unlike a tooltip.

Research direction

Start with packages/agentic/components/specs/info-label and src/components/AGENTS.md, then inspect the existing button and the dependent label and popover issues before choosing an entry point. Use the listed deliverables and acceptance criteria as the completion checklist, including colocated tests and stories, explicit src/index.ts exports, platform validation, and passing workspace format, lint, build, and test commands.
