Pillbox

A flex-wrap container that lays out a collection of pills with a configurable gap. Purely presentational — it owns layout, the pills own their appearance and behavior.

Wrapping

Pills wrap to a new row when they exceed the container width. Pillbox is agnostic to pill behavior — removable pills work as-is.

Every public token this component reads, extracted from its source at build time. The Resolves to column walks each token's real lineage — component → semantic → primitive → raw value — so you can see exactly where re-pointing it lands. A spoke re-skins by overriding these in its theme-<slug>.css; component internals are never edited. No hook for what you need? File it with /request-lego.
