Research direction
Reproduce the Flow component example from the issue in playground.tsx and confirm the reported syntax error. Trace the parser handling for this component syntax; done means the example parses and produces the expected component metadata. No implementation file or test is named, so finding the relevant parser entry point is part of the work.
