 # Tableau Desktop Authoring MCP
+
+The **desktop** build variant of `@tableau/mcp-server`. Where the default variant talks to
+Tableau Cloud/Server over REST, this variant exposes a **local authoring** tool surface that
+drives a running **Tableau Desktop** instance — inspect a workbook, list/inject chart
+templates, and bind fields into worksheets — over MCP (stdio).
+
+This document is a from-source quickstart. The desktop variant is **not** yet built by the
+publish pipeline (see [Known gaps](#known-gaps)); build it from a clone.
+
+## The binder tool surface
+
+Alongside the workbook/worksheet/dashboard/field tools, four tools drive the fast-path
+chart binder:
+
+- **`list-templates`** — list the bundled chart templates with each one's chart-intent
+  family, slot contract, and `fast_path_eligible` status. Works **headless** (no Desktop
+  needed) — it reads the in-package snapshot.
+- **`propose-template`** — Call 1: given a natural-language ask and the live workbook,
+  return candidate templates + a strict `output_schema` for the caller to fill into a
+  binding proposal (slot_id → field), or a deterministic no-LLM match when one is found.
+- **`validate-proposal`** — Call 2 (dry run): run a filled proposal through the binder's
+  deterministic gate (slot coverage, field/kind/role, derivation legality, confidence
+  floor) and report valid/invalid **without** creating or applying a worksheet.
+- **`bind-template`** — the full two-call flow: validate a filled proposal and, when valid,
+  return the injector-ready args plus the apply instruction.
+
+Typical flow: `propose-template` → fill the proposal → `validate-proposal` (dry run) →
+`bind-template` to get the apply instruction.
+
+## Build & run from source
+
+Requires Node.js `>=22.7.5`.
+
+```bash
+npm ci
+npm run build:desktop
+```
+
+The build emits the desktop entry point at **`build/index.desktop.js`** (the default
+variant's `build/index.js` is not produced by this command). It also stages the bundled
+authoring data under `build/desktop/data/` — this staging happens **only** for the desktop
+and combined variants.
+
+Point an MCP client at the entry over stdio:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "tableau-desktop": {
+      "command": "node",
+      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/tableau-mcp/build/index.desktop.js"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Requirements
+
+- **`list-templates`** works headless against the bundled snapshot.
+- **`propose-template`**, **`validate-proposal`**, and **`bind-template`** read/drive a
+  **running Tableau Desktop** instance. Discover the instance with **`list-instances`** and
+  pass its session id (the Tableau Desktop PID) as the `session` argument to those tools.
+
+## Template content
+
+- Templates ship as a **bundled snapshot** inside the package, hash-verified against a
+  generated `content-manifest.json` (every resource carries a sha256 + byte count).
+- **17** chart templates are bundled today.
+- **`fast_path_eligible`** marks a template that is portable across the committed schema
+  fixture **and** carries a live render-verification stamp — the templates the binder can
+  one-shot. Ineligible templates report a `fast_path_blockers` entry explaining why (an
+  explicit blocker code, or a derived note such as "no live render verification stamp").
+- **Remote content packs** (fetching a signed, versioned pack instead of the bundled
+  snapshot) are a **documented milestone-2 skeleton only** — the verification/cache/fallback
+  contract exists behind the provider seam, but no transport is wired, so the server always
+  serves the bundled snapshot. Its status honestly reports `satisfies_exec_freshness: false`.
+
+## Known gaps
+
+Stated honestly so nobody is surprised:
+
+- The **search tools** (`search-examples`, `search-commands`, `search-workbook-examples`,
+  `lookup-workbook-schema`) resolve their data **relative to the current working directory**,
+  so they are effectively **dev-only** (run from a repo checkout) and are not reachable from
+  a packaged install.
+- The **publish pipeline does not yet build this variant** — the desktop authoring server is
+  **from-source only** for now.

+### Tableau Desktop Authoring Server (from source)
+
+The **desktop** build variant exposes a local authoring tool surface that drives a running Tableau Desktop instance over MCP stdio. It can inspect workbooks, list/inject chart templates, bind fields into worksheets, and work with dashboards.
+
+Build it from a clone with Node.js 22.7.5 or later:

+```bash
+npm run build:desktop
+```
+
+Point an MCP client at the desktop entry:

+      "command": "node",
+      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/tableau-mcp/build/index.desktop.js"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Headless reference tools such as `list-templates` read the bundled snapshot. Tools that inspect or mutate a workbook require a running Tableau Desktop instance; use `list-instances` and pass the returned `session` id to those calls.
+
+See [`README.desktop.md`](README.desktop.md) for the full desktop authoring quickstart and known gaps.
+
+## Standalone Binaries (SEA)
+
+The server can be packaged as a [Node.js Single Executable Application](https://tableau.github.io/tableau-mcp/docs/extras/node-sea)
+so it runs without a Node.js install. Build them locally with:
+
+```bash
+npm run build:sea            # default (web) + desktop variants, host platform
+npm run build:sea:desktop    # desktop variant only
+
+# Pick variants/platforms explicitly:
+npm run build:sea -- --variant desktop --platform macos-arm64 macos-x64 win-x64
+```
+
+Output lands in `build/sea/<variant>/<platform>/`. Platforms: `macos-arm64`, `macos-x64`,
+`linux-x64`, `linux-arm64`, `win-x64`. macOS binaries are ad-hoc codesigned when built on a
+macOS host. Each binary is fully self-contained: the desktop variant's knowledge, data,
+templates, and examples are embedded into the executable as SEA assets, so it can be
+distributed and run as a single file with no sibling folders.

+# Releasing `@tableau/mcp-server`
+
+## Normal release
+
+A merge to `main` that bumps `package.json` version triggers `.github/workflows/tag.yml`, which tags `v<version>`. Cutting a GitHub release from that tag triggers `.github/workflows/publish.yml`, which runs `npm publish` — publishing the new version and moving the npm `latest` dist-tag to it. This is the common path; nothing about it changes.
+
+> **The Release publish is the trigger.** Both `publish.yml` and `docker-publish.yml` fire on `release: published` — pushing a tag alone publishes **nothing**. And both preflight that the release tag equals `v<package.json version>` at the tagged commit; a mismatch fails the run before anything publishes (npm keys prerelease-vs-stable off `package.json`, Docker off the tag name — the preflight keeps them agreeing).
+
+## Hotfix release
+
+Use this when a livesite issue needs a code fix shipped against an **already-deployed** version, without pulling in unrelated changes that have landed on `main` since, and **without moving the `latest` dist-tag** off the current release line.
+
+The publish pipeline is **prerelease-aware**: any version with a SemVer prerelease identifier (a `-`, e.g. `2.18.0-hotfix.1`) is published under a dedicated `hotfix-v<version>` npm dist-tag, never `latest`. (The dist-tag can't be the bare version — npm rejects a dist-tag that parses as a valid SemVer version — so it's `hotfix-v2.18.0-hotfix.1`; you still install by exact version.) The Docker image (`docker-publish.yml`) is guarded the same way: a prerelease tag gets its exact-version Docker tag but does not move Docker's `latest`. So a hotfix never disturbs `latest` on either registry.
+
+Say Hyperforce consumes `2.18.0`:
+
+1. **Branch off the deployed tag.** Create `hotfix/2.18.0` with HEAD at the `v2.18.0` tag:
+   ```
+   git fetch --tags
+   git checkout -b hotfix/2.18.0 v2.18.0
+   ```
+2. **Fix on `main` first, then cherry-pick.** Land the bug fix on `main` as usual, then cherry-pick it onto the hotfix branch:
+   ```
+   git checkout hotfix/2.18.0
+   git cherry-pick <fix-commit-sha>
+   ```
+   (main → hotfix ordering, so you can never forget to get the fix back onto `main`.)
+3. **Bump to a hotfix prerelease version** on the hotfix branch — `2.18.0-hotfix.1` (increment `.N` for subsequent hotfixes on the same line):
+   ```
+   npm version 2.18.0-hotfix.1 --no-git-tag-version
+   git commit -am "@W-XXXXXXXX hotfix: <summary> (2.18.0-hotfix.1)"
+   git push origin hotfix/2.18.0
+   ```
+4. **Tag + release from the hotfix branch.** Create tag `v2.18.0-hotfix.1` on the hotfix branch, push it, and cut a GitHub release from that tag:
+   ```
+   git tag v2.18.0-hotfix.1
+   git push origin v2.18.0-hotfix.1
+   ```
+   Then on GitHub, create a Release from tag `v2.18.0-hotfix.1` and **mark it as a pre-release** in the UI (`gh release create v2.18.0-hotfix.1 --prerelease`). Publishing the Release — not the tag push — is what triggers the workflows. The release "target" branch doesn't matter — `publish.yml` checks out the tag's exact commit — but selecting the hotfix branch keeps it unambiguous. The workflow detects the prerelease version and runs `npm publish --tag hotfix-v2.18.0-hotfix.1`, publishing the hotfix **without moving `latest`**.
+5. **Consume in Hyperforce.** Pin `@tableau/mcp-server@2.18.0-hotfix.1` (by exact version) in the Hyperforce repo.
+
+Verify `latest` was not disturbed:
+```
+npm dist-tag ls @tableau/mcp-server
+# latest: 2.18.0                          <- the deployed line, unchanged
+# hotfix-v2.18.0-hotfix.1: 2.18.0-hotfix.1 <- the hotfix, on its own tag
+```
+(If `main` has already advanced past the deployed line, `latest` will point at that newer version — the point is only that the hotfix did **not** move it.)
+
+### If a publish run fails partway
+
+npm versions are **immutable** — once `npm publish` for a version succeeds, re-running the whole workflow will fail on the npm step with a "cannot publish over existing version" error. If a later job failed (mcpb upload, Docker), use **"Re-run failed jobs"** on the workflow run, not "Re-run all jobs". If the npm publish itself was the failure, fix the cause and re-run; nothing was published, so the full rerun is safe.
+
+### Why this shape
+- **No `main` drift:** the fix ships off the exact deployed tag, not the moving `main`.
+- **No `latest` move:** `npm publish` reassigns `latest` on every bare publish; the prerelease guard in `publish.yml` publishes hotfixes under their own dist-tag so the normal release line keeps `latest`.
+- **main → hotfix cherry-pick order:** guarantees the fix is on `main` before it ships, so the next normal release already contains it.

+# Authoring content pack — milestone-2 remote provider (Lane M6, design + skeleton)
+
+Status: **design + skeleton only — NO network I/O.** This document defines the content-pack
+contract and the caching/verification state machine that milestone 2 will run behind the existing
+`AuthoringIntelligenceProvider` seam (`src/desktop/intelligence/provider.ts`). The real fetch
+transport, the signing scheme, and the hosting endpoint are **deliberately not implemented here** —
+they land once the hosting decision (maintainers — decision pending) exists. Everything in this lane is
+exercised against in-memory fixtures.
+
+## 1. Why a content pack
+
+Adjudicated architecture (staged D→B):
+
+- **Milestone 1 (DONE)** — a bundled in-package snapshot behind `AuthoringIntelligenceProvider`
+  plus a generated `content-manifest.json`. Honest posture: `satisfies_exec_freshness: false` (a
+  bundled snapshot is only as current as the last generator run).
+- **Milestone 2 (this lane designs it)** — a versioned, signed **content pack** fetched remotely,
+  served through the **same** `AuthoringIntelligenceProvider` interface, with the bundled snapshot as
+  the offline fallback. Only a verified pack within its TTL satisfies the executive freshness
+  requirement.
+
+The interface does not change for callers (`list-templates`, `propose-template`, `validate-proposal`,
+`bind-template`). They keep calling `getStatus()` / `getContentManifest()` / `listTemplateManifests()`
+/ `getTemplateManifest()` / `getTemplateXmlFragment()`. Only the *source* behind the seam changes, and
+`getStatus()` reports honestly which source is live.
+
+## 2. What a content pack carries
+
+A pack is a versioned bundle carrying exactly what `build/desktop/data` carries today (the resources
+the `BundledIntelligenceProvider` serves), plus pack-level metadata and a detached signature.
+
+### 2.1 Resources (identical set to the bundled snapshot)
+
+- `template-manifests/<name>.manifest.json` — per-template binding contracts
+- `template-manifests.index.json` — generated roll-up
+- `template-manifests.fixture.json` — the schema fixture the eligibility gate binds against
+- `data-visualization-templates-xml/<name>.xml` — shipped worksheet fragments (golden-only templates
+  ship a manifest but no XML — same as today)
+
+Note: the milestone-1 `content-manifest.json` becomes the pack **manifest** (§2.2). It is not itself a
+hashed resource inside the pack (a manifest cannot hash itself); the signature covers it instead.
+
+### 2.2 Pack manifest (the signed envelope)
+
+```
+PackManifest {
+  pack_format_version: string    // envelope format; this lane defines "1"
+  content_version:     string    // "<pkgVersion>+content.<YYYY-MM-DD>" (same shape as milestone 1)
+  schema_version:      string    // CONTENT schema; integer-as-string; "1" today
+  generated:           string    // YYYY-MM-DD
+  engine_compat: { server_min: string; node: string }
+  resources: Array<{ path: string; sha256: string /*64-hex*/; bytes: number /*>0*/ }>
+}
+
+SignedPackManifest {
+  manifest:            PackManifest
+  signature:           string     // detached signature over canonicalize(manifest)
+  signature_algorithm: string     // OPEN QUESTION — scheme TBD (see §7)
+}
+```
+
+`pack_format_version` (envelope) is intentionally distinct from `schema_version` (content shape). The
+envelope can evolve (e.g. add a field to `SignedPackManifest`) independently of the content shape.
+Both are gated (§4).
+
+`canonicalize(manifest)` = deterministic JSON (recursively key-sorted, `undefined` dropped) so the
+signed bytes are reproducible across producer/consumer. This is what the signature is computed over
+and what the consumer re-derives to verify.
+
+## 3. Version comparison
+
+`compareVersions(a, b)` is a pure, dependency-free comparator (`semver` is **not** a direct dependency
+of this package; do not add it — AGENTS.md forbids lockfile edits). It compares dot-separated numeric
+components left-to-right, shorter-is-lower on a tie of shared components, and treats any non-numeric
+tail (build metadata like `+content.2026-07-06`) as ignorable for ordering. It returns `-1 | 0 | 1`.
+
+Used for: the engine-compat gate (§4) and, for the transport later, picking the newest available pack.
+
+## 4. Compatibility rules (fail-closed gates)
+
+The engine (this MCP server / binder) declares what it understands:
+
+- `SUPPORTED_SCHEMA_VERSION` — the max **content** schema the engine can read (mirrors the generator's
+  `SCHEMA_VERSION`, "1" today).
+- `SUPPORTED_PACK_FORMAT_VERSION` — the max **envelope** format the engine can parse ("1").
+- `engineVersion` — this build's version (`package.json` version), for the engine-compat range.
+
+Gates, all fail-closed (a rejected pack is **never partially read** — it drops the whole pack to the
+fallback ladder):
+
+1. **Content schema gate.** A pack with `schema_version` **greater** than `SUPPORTED_SCHEMA_VERSION` is
+   **REJECTED** (`schema-too-new`). The engine will not guess at a shape it does not understand.
+   Equal-or-older is accepted (content shape evolves additively; the per-manifest validator still
+   gates every manifest's shape on materialization).
+2. **Pack-format gate.** `pack_format_version` greater than `SUPPORTED_PACK_FORMAT_VERSION` is
+   **REJECTED** (`pack-format-too-new`).
+3. **Engine-compat gate.** If `engineVersion < engine_compat.server_min` the engine is too old for the
+   pack → **REJECTED** (`incompatible-engine`). `engine_compat.node` is advisory (recorded, surfaced
+   in status) — the running Node version is already fixed by `engines` at install time.
+4. **Signature gate.** The detached `signature` must verify against `canonicalize(manifest)` under an
+   injected `SignatureVerifier`. Failure → **REJECTED** (`bad-signature`). See §7 (scheme is an open
+   question; the interface + a test fake are defined, the scheme is not chosen).
+5. **Integrity gate.** For every resource in `manifest.resources`, `sha256(bytes) === resource.sha256`
+   and the resource is present; no declared resource may be missing. Any mismatch/missing →
+   **REJECTED** (`tampered`). Resource paths are validated to be repo-relative with **no** `..`
+   segment and no absolute/`~` prefix (path-traversal guard — a signed manifest is still untrusted
+   input for path purposes).
+6. **Well-formedness gate.** The manifest metadata itself must parse to the closed shape in §2.2
+   (required fields, `sha256` is 64-hex, `bytes` a positive integer, `generated` is `YYYY-MM-DD`,
+   `schema_version`/`pack_format_version` positive-integer strings). Anything else → **REJECTED**
+   (`malformed`).
+
+A pack that passes 1–6 is a `VerifiedPack`.
+
+## 5. Freshness & the fallback ladder
+
+`getStatus()` gains a `'remote-pack'` `kind`. `satisfies_exec_freshness` is `true` **only** when a
+verified pack **within its TTL** is the active source.
+
+TTL is measured from the pack's `fetched_at` (when it was written to cache) using an **injected clock**
+(`now`) and a configured `ttlMs`. `now - fetched_at <= ttlMs` ⇒ fresh, else stale.
+
+The fallback ladder, evaluated on **every load** (the cache is re-verified each time — a tampered cache
+is caught late, not just at write):
+
+1. **Verified fresh pack** → serve it. `kind: 'remote-pack'`, `freshness: 'remote-pack-fresh'`,
+   `stale: false`, `satisfies_exec_freshness: true`.
+2. **Verified stale pack** (past TTL but still passes every gate in §4) → serve it with an **honest
+   stale flag**. `kind: 'remote-pack'`, `freshness: 'remote-pack-stale'`, `stale: true`,
+   `satisfies_exec_freshness: false`, note says the content is past its freshness window.
+3. **Bundled snapshot** → the offline fallback whenever no pack is servable (no cache, transport not
+   configured, or the cached pack fails any gate — tampered/schema-too-new/incompatible/etc.).
+   `kind: 'bundled'`, `freshness: 'bundled-snapshot'`, `satisfies_exec_freshness: false`, and a
+   `fallback: <reason>` field naming *why* the remote path is not live. **Fail loud in status**: a
+   tampered cache surfaces `fallback: 'tampered-cache'`, not a silent downgrade.
+
+There is never a broken half-state: content is served either wholly from a verified pack or wholly from
+the bundled snapshot. Materialization (parsing a verified pack's manifests/XML into the served maps) is
+all-or-nothing; a pack that verifies but cannot materialize (a malformed inner manifest) drops to the
+bundled snapshot (`fallback: 'malformed-pack'`).
+
+### 5.1 `ProviderStatus` additions (backward compatible)
+
+The milestone-1 `ProviderStatus` fields are unchanged. Milestone 2 widens the enums and adds two
+**optional** fields:
+
+- `kind: 'bundled' | 'remote-pack'` (was `'bundled'`)
+- `freshness: 'bundled-snapshot' | 'remote-pack-fresh' | 'remote-pack-stale'` (was `'bundled-snapshot'`)
+- `satisfies_exec_freshness: boolean` (was the literal `false`)
+- `stale?: boolean` — remote-only; present when a pack is the active source
+- `fallback?: RemoteFallbackReason` — remote-provider-only; present when it fell back to bundled
+
+The bundled provider's runtime output is **byte-identical** to milestone 1: it sets neither optional
+field (so JSON serialization is unchanged), and still returns `kind: 'bundled'`,
+`freshness: 'bundled-snapshot'`, `satisfies_exec_freshness: false`.
+
+## 6. Cache
+
+- **Location.** A gitignored `cache/` directory already exists (used by the binder memo sidecar). The
+  pack cache lives under `cache/authoring-content-pack/`. The concrete on-disk store is future work;
+  this lane defines the `PackStore` interface (sync `read`/`write`/`clear`) and an `InMemoryPackStore`
+  for dev/tests. Containment (all writes under the cache dir) is the security guardrail for the future
+  filesystem store — same posture as the binder's `DesktopCache`.
+- **Integrity re-check on every load.** `resolveActiveSource()` runs the full §4 verification against
+  the cached bytes on each load, not only at fetch time. A cache tampered with after it was written is
+  therefore caught and drops to the bundled fallback with a loud status.
+- **State machine (pure).** `evaluateCachedPack(cached | null, deps) → CacheState` where
+  `CacheState = { absent } | { fresh, pack } | { stale, pack } | { rejected, reason }`. Pure over an
+  injected store snapshot + injected `now` — no I/O, fully fixture-testable.
+
+## 7. Open questions (maintainers — decision pending)
+
+1. **Signing scheme — UNDECIDED.** This lane does **not** pick or vendor a crypto scheme. It defines
+   the `SignatureVerifier` interface (`verify({ payload, signature, algorithm }) → Result`) and a test
+   fake, and records `signature_algorithm` as a manifest field. Candidates to adjudicate: detached
+    minisign/ed25519 (small, offline-verifiable, key distribution simple) vs. an X.509/JWS chain (fits
+   existing `jose` dependency, heavier key management) vs. Sigstore/cosign (keyless, needs network at
+   verify time — conflicts with the offline-fallback requirement). Decision needed before a real
+   verifier ships; until then the default `unconfiguredVerifier` rejects all signatures (so remote
+   cannot serve and the engine safely stays on the bundled snapshot).
+2. **Hosting endpoint — UNDECIDED.** Where packs and their manifests are hosted (CDN? Tableau-owned
+   endpoint? GitHub release assets?) drives the `PackTransport` implementation (auth, retries, SSRF
+   posture). This lane ships only `NotConfiguredTransport` (returns a typed `unavailable` result).
+3. **TTL policy — PROPOSED DEFAULT 24h.** `AUTHORING_CONTENT_PACK_TTL_HOURS` (default 24). Confirm the
+   freshness window the exec requirement implies, and whether stale-but-verified content should keep
+   being served (current design: yes, with an honest `stale` flag) or hard-fail to bundled.
+4. **Runtime adoption.** The factory (`getIntelligenceProvider`) is the single selection point but is
+   **not yet wired into server startup** — the tools still import the bundled singleton directly, so the
+   shipped default is provably unchanged. Wiring the factory in (and the real transport) is the
+   milestone-2-final step, gated on #1/#2.
+
+## 8. Config (opt-in; default bundled)
+
+Parsed by `parseIntelligenceConfig(env)` (pure, fail-closed):
+
+- `AUTHORING_CONTENT_PACK_MODE` ∈ `{ 'bundled', 'remote' }` — **closed enum**, default `'bundled'`.
+  Absent or unrecognized ⇒ `'bundled'` (remote requires the explicit `'remote'` opt-in).
+- `AUTHORING_CONTENT_PACK_TTL_HOURS` — positive number, default 24; invalid ⇒ default.
+
+`getIntelligenceProvider(config, deps?)`:
+
+- `mode: 'bundled'` (the default) returns the **exact** `bundledIntelligenceProvider` singleton →
+  byte-identical to milestone 1.
+- `mode: 'remote'` constructs a `RemotePackIntelligenceProvider` with injected
+  `{ transport, verifier, store, clock, fallback, ttlMs, engine }`. With the shipped defaults
+  (`NotConfiguredTransport`, `unconfiguredVerifier`, empty store) it resolves to the bundled snapshot
+  with an honest `fallback` reason — still no behavior change for served content.
+
+## 9. Skeleton module map
+
+- `src/desktop/intelligence/contentPack.ts` — contract types, constants, `parsePackManifest`
+  (watch-class boundary), `canonicalizePackManifest`, `compareVersions`, resource-path safety.
+- `src/desktop/intelligence/packVerification.ts` — `SignatureVerifier` interface +
+  `unconfiguredVerifier`, sha256 resource verification (node crypto), schema/pack-format/engine gates,
+  `verifyPack` funnel.
+- `src/desktop/intelligence/packCache.ts` — `PackStore` interface, `InMemoryPackStore`,
+  `evaluateCachedPack` state machine.
+- `src/desktop/intelligence/remoteProvider.ts` — `PackTransport` + `NotConfiguredTransport`, `Clock` +
+  `systemClock`, pack materialization, `RemotePackIntelligenceProvider`.
+- `src/desktop/intelligence/factory.ts` — `parseIntelligenceConfig` + `getIntelligenceProvider`.
+
+## 10. Watch-class audit #5 — new boundaries
+
+Every field crossing a trust boundary is a closed enum or a required, typed field, and fails closed:
+
+- **Pack manifest metadata** (`parsePackManifest`): all §2.2 fields required and typed; `sha256`
+  64-hex; `bytes` positive integer; `generated` `YYYY-MM-DD`; `schema_version` / `pack_format_version`
+  positive-integer strings; resource `path` traversal-guarded. Missing/mistyped ⇒ `malformed`, whole
+  pack rejected.
+- **Signature** (`SignedPackManifest`): `signature` and `signature_algorithm` required non-empty
+  strings; verification is a hard gate.
+- **Compat gates**: `schema_version` / `pack_format_version` / `engine_compat.server_min` are all hard,
+  fail-closed comparisons — newer-than-understood is rejected, not partially read.
+- **Config** (`parseIntelligenceConfig`): `AUTHORING_CONTENT_PACK_MODE` closed enum, default bundled;
+  remote is opt-in only.
+- **`getStatus()` honesty**: `satisfies_exec_freshness` is `true` on exactly one state (verified fresh
+  pack); every fallback names its reason.

+# Authoring migration — binder drift sync + canonical tool exemplar (Lane M2, day 2)
+
+Migration source of truth: the source implementation (**snapshot S1**) — a read-only, local-only
+snapshot workspace (git-excluded), taken 2026-07-05. It is untracked and **never** imported at build
+time. Day-1 port baseline = `src/desktop/binder/` @ commit `ecc843cf`.
+
+This document records (1) the file-by-file drift inventory, (2) the port decisions (what was brought to
+parity, what was stubbed/excluded and why), and (3) the `bind-template` tool exemplar.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Drift inventory — `src/desktop/binder/` vs snapshot S1's `src/binder/`
+
+Raw whitespace-insensitive `diff` line-counts are **not** used to classify drift: the snapshot uses the
+source implementation's house style (double quotes, ESM `import.meta.url`), while this repo enforces single quotes + `process.cwd()`
+data paths, so nearly every string line differs cosmetically. Classification below is by *behavior* /
+*test-case count*, corroborated by `git status`.
+
+### ADDED — pure library modules brought over from the snapshot (new files)
+
+| File | Ported? | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `calc-derivation.ts` (+ `.test.ts`, 15 cases) | ✅ ported | Pure, hermetic. `calcForcedSlotIds` now lives here; `manifest.ts` + `classify.ts` import it instead of re-declaring. |
+| `memo.ts` (+ `.test.ts`, 20 cases) | ✅ ported (1 adaptation) | Content-addressed memoized binder. Source derived the schema-cache sidecar path from `fileURLToPath(import.meta.url)` (ESM-only → breaks under this repo's `type: commonjs`); adapted to `process.cwd()` to match the established packaged-data idiom (see `memo.ts` header comment). Source `console.log` benchmark line → `console.warn` (repo `no-console` allows warn/error). |
+| `prewarm.ts` (+ `.test.ts`, 7 cases) | ✅ ported | Pure, hermetic shortlist prewarm. |
+
+### CHANGED — drifted content synced to snapshot behavior
+
+| File | Drift | Port decision |
+|---|---|---|
+| `manifest-types.ts` | Additive types: `RenderEvidence`, `CalcInput`, `CalcResultRole`, `DatasourceStyleSidecar`, `GoldenSpec`, first-class calc-field (H3) fields, and the `source` field used by the (OFF) sideload path. | ✅ Overwritten with snapshot types (purely additive; no existing type narrowed). |
+| `classify.ts` | Stage-2b within-family tie-break + sole-wrong-matcher guard; `calcForcedSlotIds` import; propose-shortlist that *would* include `source==='local'` templates. | ✅ Synced to snapshot behavior verbatim (only imports/quotes adapted). The `source==='local'` branch is **inert** — no bundled manifest sets `source`, and no env-dir loader is ported, so the routable pool is byte-identical to eligible-only (OFF state). |
+| `validate.ts` | Gate-6 `inputs`-contract handling + updated escalation messages/reasons. | ✅ Synced to snapshot behavior verbatim (imports/quotes/return-type adapted). |
+| `manifest.ts` | `calcForcedSlotIds` moved to `calc-derivation.ts`; new optional `datasource_style` validation block; slug/containment hardening. | ✅ Synced. **Path resolution intentionally *not* synced**: kept the repo's `DATA_DIR = path.join(process.cwd(), 'src','desktop','data')` idiom (hermetic) instead of the snapshot's `import.meta.url`. Manifests load via the existing `loadManifests()` seam — a future provider seam can slot in behind it. |
+
+### UNCHANGED — day-1 port already at snapshot parity (no edit needed)
+
+`binder.ts`, `schema-summary.ts`, `field-narrowing.test.ts` (8 cases), `within-family-disambiguation.test.ts`
+(9 cases) are functionally identical to the snapshot (confirmed: unmodified vs `HEAD` after sync, and all
+their tests pass alongside the ported `classify.ts`/`validate.ts`).
+
+### DEFERRED — drift NOT ported (blocked on unshippable source-implementation assets or generated artifacts)
+
+| Snapshot file / drift | Cases | Why deferred |
+|---|---|---|
+| `binder.test.ts` extra cases | +6 vs repo (26→20) | Eligible-sibling / `ww-ou`-family assertions that depend on the 2 missing manifests + their golden XML. |
+| `validate.test.ts` extra cases | +5 vs repo (31→26) | New gate-6 `inputs`-contract cases exercised on manifests not present in the bundled set. (The `inputs` gate itself **is** ported in `validate.ts` and is covered end-to-end by `memo.test.ts`'s calc manifest.) |
+| `manifest.test.ts` | 30 (count parity) | Kept the day-1 version; the day-1 30 cases pass against the synced `manifest.ts` (incl. the new `datasource_style` block, inert for current data). |
+| `ww-ou-arrow.manifest.json`, `ww-ou-diff.manifest.json` | 2 data files | Adding them requires regenerating the **generated** `template-manifests.index.json` + `template-manifests.fixture.json` (AGENTS.md: generated — fix the generator, don't hand-edit) and would need `ww-ou` golden render XML. `manifest.test.ts` couples every manifest's `fixture_bind` stamp to `fixture.json` fields and requires a live `render_verified` stamp, so a partial add would fail existing (un-weakenable) tests. Repo bundles **15** manifests + index + fixture — sufficient for the binder + tool. |
+| `ww-ou-fidelity.test.ts` (10), `ww-floating-bars-fidelity.test.ts` (6), `control-chart-xmr-fidelity.test.ts` (6), `golden-parity.test.ts` (16), `compile-checkpoint-template.test.ts` (21), `datasource-style-splice.test.ts` (7), `calc-slots-contract.test.ts` (5) | 71 cases | Golden/fidelity suites that read live-render golden assets (the `<local golden-corpus root>` corpus) which **never ship here**. Out of scope per the task. |
+| `worksheet-analyzer.test.ts` (15) | 15 cases | Its source module `worksheet-analyzer.ts` is **not present in snapshot S1** — cannot port the test without the implementation; out of scope. |
+| `local-sideload.test.ts` (10) | 10 cases | The source's local-template-dir env-dir sideload + stamp-trust feature. Only the **OFF** state is ported (see below); the ON-state tests are excluded. |
+
+### Source-environment assumptions that were adapted or excluded (never ship here)
+
+- **`import.meta.url` data paths** → adapted to `process.cwd()` in `memo.ts` (matching `manifest.ts`'s
+  existing idiom). No runtime `import.meta` usage remains in the binder (the 4 grep hits are explanatory
+  comments only).
+- **Local-template-dir sideload + stamp-trust** (the source's env-dir feature) → **OFF state only**. No `process.env` read
+  exists anywhere in `src/desktop/binder/` (grep-proven), so with the env unset behavior is byte-identical
+  to the snapshot. The `source` field + `source==='local'` branch remain in the types/classifier but are
+  inert (no loader, no manifest sets `source`). The feature is effectively stubbed out; `local-sideload.test.ts`
+  is excluded.
+- **`<local golden-corpus root>` golden corpus** → never referenced (grep-proven). All golden/fidelity suites deferred.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Manifest bundling
+
+Day-1 already bundled `src/desktop/data/template-manifests/` (15 `*.manifest.json`) plus the generated
+`template-manifests.index.json` and `template-manifests.fixture.json`. The binder loads them via
+`loadManifests()` (`manifest.ts:591`) from the **package** path `process.cwd()/src/desktop/data/...`
+(`manifest.ts:36`) — never a user path. Bundling is the current freshness answer; a provider seam can slot
+in behind `loadManifests()` without touching callers. No new manifest data was added (see DEFERRED above).
+
+---
+
+## 3. Canonical tool exemplar — `bind-template`
+
+Behavior reference: snapshot S1's `src/server/tools/binder.ts` (`tableau-bind-template`). Shape conforms to
+this repo's #347/#370 Desktop-tool pattern — **not** copied verbatim (source uses `_session`, `ctx.log`,
+emoji text, hand-built `isError`).
+
+**Files**
+
+- `src/tools/desktop/binder/bindTemplate.ts` — factory `getBindTemplateTool(server)` (`:130`), zod
+  `paramsSchema` (`:48`), `logAndExecute` funnel (`:151`).
+- `src/tools/desktop/binder/bindTemplate.test.ts` — 7 colocated cases, mocked executor + mocked binder core
+  (`Provider.from(tool.callback)` + `getMockRequestHandlerExtra()`).
+- Registered in `src/tools/desktop/toolName.ts` (`'bind-template'`) and `src/tools/desktop/tools.ts`
+  (`getBindTemplateTool` in `desktopToolFactories`). Registration is auto-covered by the data-driven
+  `src/server.desktop.test.ts` and `src/tools/toolName.test.ts`.
+
+**Adapter flow** (thin — no new command layer): `extra.getExecutor(session)` → reuse existing
+`getWorkbookXml` command (`bindTemplate.ts:156`) → `loadManifests()` (`:161`) → pure `bindTemplate(...)`
+(`:162`) → `Ok({ ...binderResult, guidance })`. A pure reference-library + passthrough tool legitimately has
+no new command layer (AGENTS.md); the only Agent-API call reuses the existing `get-workbook-xml` command.
+
+**Two-call protocol** (server is model-free): Call 1 `{ session, ask }` → `bound` | `propose`; Call 2
+`{ session, ask, proposal }` → `bound` | `escalate`.
+
+**Key adaptations vs the source implementation**
+
+- Top-level params are camelCase (`session`, `ask`, `proposal`, `minConfidence`) — no `_session`, no
+  `min_confidence`. The **nested `proposal`** mirrors the binder library's public `BindingProposal` /
+  `PROPOSAL_OUTPUT_SCHEMA` contract verbatim (incl. `bindings[].slot_id`) so a Call-1 `propose` payload
+  round-trips into a Call-2 `proposal` unchanged — this is a serialized library data contract, not
+  tool-ergonomics naming.
+- `escalate` is returned as a **normal `Ok` outcome** (with plain-text `guidance`), **not** `isError: true`.
+  the source set `isError` for escalate; this repo reserves `CallToolResult.isError` for the `McpToolError` funnel.
+  Only a workbook-read failure or a thrown exception funnels through `DesktopCommandExecutionError` /
+  `logAndExecute`'s catch (→ `isError: true`).
+- No emoji in any tool string (AGENTS.md ban). Escalation `guidance` routes by reason and references only
+  tools that exist in this repo (`resolve-field`); it speaks generically for tier-2 rather than naming
+  source-only tools.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Acceptance
+
+- `scripts/agent-check` → **ALL GREEN (3 checks)**: `npm run lint`, `npx tsc --noEmit`,
+  `npx vitest run --config ./vitest.config.ts` = **2052 tests / 155 files** passed.
+- Binder library: **141 tests / 8 files** pass (incl. ported `calc-derivation`, `memo`, `prewarm`).
+- Hermeticity: grepping `src/desktop/binder` + `src/tools/desktop` for the `<local golden-corpus root>` path (and `homedir`) → **no matches**.
+  No `process.env` reads in the binder. `import.meta` appears only in explanatory comments; the
+  local-sideload env var is not referenced anywhere (no runtime read, and its name is not recorded).
+- Pre-existing lint debt (unrelated to this migration, unmodified vs `HEAD`):
+  `getDashboardXml.test.ts` and `lookupWorkbookSchema.test.ts` had committed prettier violations that made
+  the baseline `agent-check` red. Fixed with `prettier --write` (formatting only — trailing commas +
+  line-wrapping; zero logic/assertion change). `eslint.config.mjs` now ignores the migration snapshot workspace.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Residual risk & day-3
+
+- **Manifest data drift (highest priority).** Sync `ww-ou-arrow` + `ww-ou-diff` manifests, then regenerate
+  `template-manifests.index.json` + `template-manifests.fixture.json` via the source generator (do not
+  hand-edit generated files), and either bring the `ww-ou` golden XML or explicitly drop the golden/fidelity
+  suites for this package. Only then can `binder.test.ts` (+6) and `validate.test.ts` (+5) reach snapshot
+  parity without weakening tests.
+- **Golden/fidelity suites** (`ww-ou`, `ww-floating-bars`, `control-chart-xmr`, `golden-parity`,
+  `compile-checkpoint`, `datasource-style-splice`) depend on the `<local golden-corpus root>` corpus and are out of
+  scope until a shippable, hermetic fixture strategy exists.
+- **`worksheet-analyzer`**: source not in the snapshot — obtain the implementation before porting its test.
+- **Local-sideload feature**: currently OFF-state-only (types present, no loader). A hermetic design (bundled
+  vs provider seam) is being handled separately; do not wire the source's local-template-dir env var here.
+- **`datasource_style` validation** is ported but inert (no bundled manifest uses it) — exercised only once
+  data lands.
+
+---
+
+## 5b. Bind-pipeline security hardening — new in this port (Lane M10)
+
+An adversarial security review of the bind output pipeline landed four fail-closed
+hardenings that are **new in this port and not present in the source implementation** — they
+are additive safety, not a sync:
+
+- **XML output escaping.** `bindTemplate` returns a `title`, `template_parameters.DATASOURCE`,
+  and `field_mapping` values that the apply instruction tells the consumer to substitute
+  verbatim into template XML attributes. A new `escapeXml` utility (`src/desktop/binder/escape.ts`)
+  escapes the five XML metacharacters exactly once at production (field values + datasource in
+  `validate.ts` gate 7; title in `binder.ts`), so a workbook- or proposal-controlled value can no
+  longer break out of the attribute and inject XML structure. Tableau field-reference brackets are
+  intentionally left intact, so clean names round-trip byte-identical. The apply instruction now
+  documents the "escaped once — do not double-escape" contract.
+- **Title control-char rejection.** The shared proposal schema now rejects C0 control
+  characters and DEL in `title` (illegal in XML 1.0 even when escaped), and the no-LLM title
+  generator strips them, from one shared definition so the tool boundary and library agree.
+- **Field-count cap.** No-LLM classification runs one regex per schema field; a pathological
+  wide schema is a per-call CPU DoS. A named cap (`MAX_CLASSIFIABLE_FIELDS`) makes the classifier
+  fail closed (never a truncated subset) and escalate a new `schema-too-large` reason instead.
+- **Loud dev-fallback.** Resolving binder data to the cwd-relative dev fallback now emits a
+  one-line warning (resolution order unchanged) so a broken/partial packaged install is no longer
+  silent about serving cwd-relative content.
+
+These changes touch only the ported binder library + its tools; none depends on unshippable source
+assets, so all four are covered by colocated unit tests in this package.
+
+## 6. Rebase verification (pre-push, day-7)
+
+This lane's changes must be rebased by the orchestrator (git operations are out of scope for the
+implementing agent — **no rebase was performed here**). After the rebase onto the long-lived migration
+base, verify:
+
+- **Provider seam is intact.** `bind-template` now sources manifests through
+  `bundledIntelligenceProvider.listTemplateManifests()` (like propose/validate/list), not raw
+  `loadManifests()`. Confirm `src/desktop/intelligence/provider.ts` still exports
+  `listTemplateManifests()` returning exactly `[...loadManifests().values()]` (manifests keyed by
+  `manifest.template`). If a milestone-2 provider landed on the base, re-confirm the re-keyed Map stays
+  byte-identical; the seam test (`bindTemplate.test.ts` › "provider seam") is the guard.
+- **No shared-registry drift.** This lane did **not** touch the coordinated files
+  (`src/tools/desktop/toolName.ts`, `tools.ts`, `src/errors/mcpToolError.ts`,
+  `src/server.desktop.test.ts`). The rebase should confirm they are unchanged by this lane and resolve any
+  incoming edits from the active author cleanly.
+- **Public-hygiene scrub holds.** Re-run the tracked-file provenance scan after rebase over the marker set
+  used by this lane (the source repo's short name/full name, its migration branch name, its snapshot commit
+  SHA, `/Users/…` home paths, and maintainer personal names) via
+  `git ls-files -z | xargs -0 grep -niE '<markers>'`, and confirm the **only** remaining hit is the
+  sanctioned functional ignore entry for the local migration-snapshot dir (git-excluded) in `eslint.config.mjs`. Incoming commits must not
+  reintroduce repo/branch/SHA or personal-name provenance.
+- **Local ignore still needed.** Confirm the local, git-excluded snapshot workspace still exists; if the
+  base branch dropped it, remove the now-dead ignore entry for the local migration-snapshot dir (git-excluded) too.
+- **Green gate.** Re-run `scripts/agent-check` (lint + `tsc --noEmit` + `vitest run`) post-rebase; the four
+  binder tools (`bind-template`, `propose-template`, `validate-proposal`, `list-templates`) must all pass.

 This guide walks you through everything you need to use Tableau MCP with popular third-party agents.
 
 ## Slack
-Coming soon! 
+You can connect Slackbot to Tableau MCP by installing the latest version of the [Tableau Slack app](https://slack-pde.slack.com/marketplace/A026RA4ND1R-tableau) into your workspace. 
+
+### First-time Tableau Slack App installation
+If it's your first time installing the Tableau Slack app, go to Tableau site settings for the Tableau site you want to connect Slack to. From site settings, click the `integrations` tab and scroll to the bottom of the page until you see the *Slack Connectivity* section. Click the `Connect to Slack` button and connect to your target Slack workspace by clicking `allow` from the app install dialogue.

+
+To confirm that the app installation completed, go to your slack workspace, click tools, apps, and look for Tableau in the list of installed apps. 
+
+:::note 
+This workflow does not block multi-site users from using Slackbot to interact with multiple Tableau sites. Tableau MCP uses a separate OAuth flow from inside Slackbot to connect users to their target site. 
+
+Also, you cannot install the Tableau slack app from the Slack marketplace. You have to do it from the Tableau site settings. 
+
+:::
+
+### Using Tableau MCP from Slackbot
+Once you've install the Tableau Slack app, users of the worksapce simply have to click the `apps` button inside Slackbot and connect to their target Tableau site through the built-in [OAuth](/configuration/mcp-config/authentication/oauth.md) flow. 
+
+For more information about Slackbot and MCP server support, see [Slackbot documentation](https://docs.slack.dev/ai/slackbot-mcp-client/)

+# User License Reclamation — Apply
+
+`user-license-reclamation-apply`
+
+A guided, **destructive** Tableau Cloud admin workflow that identifies inactive licensed users, surfaces their owned-content counts for review, and — only after explicit human approval — downgrades approved users to **Unlicensed** via `update-user`.
+
+:::warning[Admin Only · Destructive]
+This prompt is restricted to Tableau site administrators and requires the `ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED` feature flag. It drives the destructive [`update-user`](../tools/users/update-user.md) tool. The user inventory, activity analysis, and ownership inventory steps are **read-only**: no user is downgraded until the admin approves a specific user set at the required human-in-the-loop confirmation break.
+:::
+
+## Workflow
+
+The prompt sequences existing deterministic tools — it performs no calculations itself. Steps 1–3 are read-only; no write happens until after the Step 4 approval break:
+
+1. **User inventory (read-only)** — calls [`list-users`](../tools/users/list-users.md) to retrieve all users on the site, then filters client-side to licensed roles in scope. Users with null `lastLogin` (never signed in) are also included as candidates.
+2. **Activity signals (read-only)** — calls [`query-admin-insights`](../tools/admin-insights/query-admin-insights.md) with `kind: "ts-events"` to retrieve recent Access events. Cross-references activity against candidates from Step 1 to identify truly inactive users. TS Events lookback is capped at 90 days on standard Tableau Cloud (365 with Advanced Management); data is subject to 24–48h ETL lag.
+3. **Ownership inventory (read-only)** — calls [`query-admin-insights`](../tools/admin-insights/query-admin-insights.md) with `kind: "site-content"` to count workbooks and data sources owned by each inactive user (matched by `Owner Email`). This is informational only — ownership is **not** affected by the downgrade.
+4. **Human confirmation break** — presents the inactive users as a table (username, display name, current role, last login, days inactive, owned workbooks, owned datasources) and requires explicit approval before any downgrade. In a dry run (the default) the workflow stops here.
+5. **Apply (only after Step 4 approval)** — for each approved user, calls [`update-user`](../tools/users/update-user.md) with `siteRole: "Unlicensed"`. Calls are sequential; the first error stops the run.
+6. **Final report** — prints a "Changes applied" section, a "Skipped" section, and an "Ownership reminder" noting that downgraded users' content remains intact and can be reassigned separately.
+
+## Arguments
+
+| Argument | Type | Required | Description |
+|----------|------|----------|-------------|
+| `inactiveDays` | string (integer) | No | Minimum days since last login for a user to be considered inactive. Defaults to 90. Clamped to 1–3650. Bounded by TS Events 90-day lookback window unless Advanced Management is enabled. |
+| `siteRoles` | string | No | Comma-separated list of site roles to scope reclamation to (e.g. "Viewer, Explorer"). Defaults to all license-consuming roles: Creator, Explorer, ExplorerCanPublish, SiteAdministratorCreator, SiteAdministratorExplorer, Viewer. |
+| `userIds` | string | No | Comma-separated user LUIDs to scope the reclamation to. When omitted, all inactive users matching the criteria are analyzed. |
+| `dryRun` | `"true"` \| `"false"` | No | When `true` (default), produces only the reclamation report — never calls `update-user`. Set to `false` to allow the apply step after the confirmation break. |
+
+## Safety guarantees
+
+- No user is downgraded until the admin approves a specific user set at the Step 4 break.
+- The workflow only downgrades users the admin explicitly approved; unapproved users are never touched.
+- Downgrading to Unlicensed does **not** delete or reassign content — ownership is retained.
+- `update-user` is reversible by re-assigning the user's prior site role.
+- Apply calls run sequentially; the first error stops the run so the admin can review partial state.
+- TS Events lookback is 90 days on standard Tableau Cloud. Data is subject to 24–48h ETL lag — candidates are provisional, not definitive.
+
+## Configuration
+
+```bash
+ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED=true
+
+# Optional — override defaults for both inform and apply prompts:
+LICENSE_RECLAIM_INACTIVE_DAYS=90        # 1–3650; default 90
+LICENSE_RECLAIM_ROLES=Creator,Explorer,ExplorerCanPublish,SiteAdministratorCreator,SiteAdministratorExplorer,Viewer
+```
+
+Note: The apply prompt's default roles include all six license-consuming roles (including site-admin compound variants). The inform prompt defaults to a narrower set (`Creator,Explorer`). When `LICENSE_RECLAIM_ROLES` is set, both prompts use the configured value.

+# User License Reclamation — Inform
+
+`user-license-reclamation-inform`
+
+A read-only Tableau Cloud admin workflow that identifies inactive licensed users who are candidates for downgrade to Unlicensed.
+
+:::warning[Admin Only]
+This prompt is restricted to Tableau site administrators and requires the `ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED` site setting.
+:::
+
+## Workflow
+
+The prompt orchestrates two tool calls:
+
+1. **`list-users`** — fetches all users matching the target site roles whose `lastLogin` is older than the inactivity threshold. The tool paginates the result set; note that if `MAX_RESULT_LIMIT` is configured, the fetch is capped and the role/lastLogin filter is applied client-side after fetch — some candidates beyond the cap may not appear.
+2. **`query-admin-insights`** with `kind: "ts-events"` — cross-references Access events within the lookback window (capped at 90 days on standard Tableau Cloud) to exclude users who are active despite a stale `lastLogin` timestamp (e.g., API-only users).
+
+The final output is a Markdown table of reclamation candidates with their site role, last login, days inactive, and auth setting. No user modifications are performed.
+
+## Arguments
+
+| Argument | Type | Required | Description |
+|----------|------|----------|-------------|
+| `inactiveDays` | string (integer) | No | Minimum days of inactivity. Defaults to 90. |
+| `roles` | string | No | Comma-separated site roles to target. Defaults to `Creator,Explorer`. |
+
+## Configuration
+
+```bash
+ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED=true
+
+# Optional overrides (env vars)
+LICENSE_RECLAIM_INACTIVE_DAYS=90
+LICENSE_RECLAIM_ROLES=Creator,Explorer
+```
+
+## Scopes
+
+This prompt uses existing scopes — no new scope registration is needed:
+
+- `tableau:users:read` — for `list-users`
+- `vds:read` — for `query-admin-insights`
+
+## Notes
+
+- TS Events caps at 90 days lookback on Tableau Cloud (365 days with Advanced Management).
+- `lastLogin` reflects Tableau UI sign-in only — API-only or embedded users may show as inactive.
+- Pair with `user-license-reclamation-apply` (coming soon) to act on the results.

-# Get Stale Content Report
-
-Builds a deterministic report of stale Tableau Cloud content (workbooks and published
-datasources) by querying the Admin Insights `Site Content` datasource — which exposes a
-`Last Accessed At` field per item — applying the staleness threshold server-side, and returning
-already-filtered rows.
-
-The server applies the threshold comparison, optional project filter, and sort. Clients receive
-only items where days since last use exceed the threshold. **No client-side math is required.**
-
-The tool is admin-only — it is registered only when `ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED=true`, and at request
-time it verifies the caller's site role and rejects anything below
-`SiteAdministratorCreator` / `SiteAdministratorExplorer` / `ServerAdministrator`.
-
-## APIs called
-
-- [Query Datasource (VDS)](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/vizql-data-service/en-us/reference/index.html#tag/HeadlessBI/operation/QueryDatasource) — single VDS call against the `Site Content` Admin Insights datasource
-- [Query Data Sources (REST)](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_ref_data_sources.htm#query_data_sources) — used internally to resolve the `Site Content` dataset LUID
-- [Query Projects (REST)](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_ref_projects.htm#query_projects) — used internally to resolve project LUIDs to names when a project scope is set
-- [Get User on Site (REST)](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_ref_users_and_groups.htm#get_user_on_site) — used internally for the admin gate
-
-## Optional arguments
-
-### `minAgeDays`
-
-Minimum days since last access for content to be considered stale. The server applies the
-condition `daysSinceLastUse > minAgeDays` (strict greater-than).
-
-If omitted, falls back to the server-configured threshold
-[`STALE_CONTENT_MIN_AGE_DAYS`](../../configuration/mcp-config/env-vars.md), which defaults to
-`90` — the Tableau Cloud TS Events lookback ceiling.
-
-Range: `1`–`3650`.
-
-Example: `30`
-
-<hr />
-
-### `projectIds`
-
-Optional list of project LUIDs to scope the report to. The server resolves the LUIDs to project
-names via the Tableau REST API and filters the `Site Content` datasource by
-`Item Parent Project Name`. The LUID → name lookup is cached for 5 minutes per site.
-
-If omitted, falls back to the server-configured
-[`INCLUDE_PROJECT_IDS`](../../configuration/mcp-config/env-vars.md) bound (if any). When both are
-set, the final scope is the intersection.
-
-Example: `["af59ee84-a375-4cb4-84b9-eaa7864f59fb"]`
-
-<hr />
-
-### `itemTypes`
-
-Optional filter for item types. Defaults to `["Workbook", "Datasource"]`. Allowed values:
-`Workbook`, `Datasource`.
-
-Example: `["Datasource"]`
-
-## Notes and caveats
-
-- The Tableau-managed `Admin Insights` project is **excluded by design** — its datasources are
-  admin-owned and refreshed by Tableau, not user content. The exclusion is enforced as a
-  server-side VDS filter on `Item Parent Project Name`.
-- `Last Accessed At` is `null` for items that have never been accessed. The report ages those
-  items from `Created At` instead and flags them with `neverAccessed: true`.
-- Rows are sorted descending by `daysSinceLastUse`, then by `size`.
-- Tableau Cloud `Last Accessed At` is populated whenever the underlying `TS Events` access stream
-  records an access — items beyond the 90-day Cloud event lookback may show `null` even if they
-  were accessed earlier. Items with `daysSinceLastUse ≥ 90` should be interpreted accordingly.

-# Query Admin Insights — Job Performance
-
-Issues a [VizQL Data Service (VDS)](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/vizql-data-service/en-us/index.html)
-query against the Admin Insights `Job Performance` published datasource on the connected Tableau Cloud
-site. Returns records of extract refresh jobs, subscription jobs, flow runs, and bridge jobs.
-
-The tool is admin-only — it is registered only when `ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED=true`, and at request
-time it verifies the caller's site role and rejects anything below
-`SiteAdministratorCreator` / `SiteAdministratorExplorer` / `ServerAdministrator`. The Admin
-Insights datasource LUID is resolved automatically; callers do not pass `datasourceLuid`.
-
-## APIs called

-
-## Required arguments
-
-### `query`
-
-A fully formed VDS [`query`](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/vizql-data-service/en-us/reference/index.html#tag/HeadlessBI/operation/QueryDatasource)
-object: `fields`, `filters`, `parameters`. The schema mirrors the schema accepted by the
-[`query-datasource`](../data-qna/query-datasource.md) tool.
-
-The `fields` array must contain at least one entry — omitting it causes a VDS error.
-
-`Job Type` values are stored without spaces, e.g. `RefreshExtracts`, `IncrementExtracts`,
-`RefreshExtractsViaBridge`, `IncrementExtractsViaBridge`, `SendSingleSubscription`, `RunFlow`. Query
-the `Job Type` field alone to list the values present on a site.
-
-Common usage:
-
-- Analyze extract refresh durations and failure rates per datasource or workbook.
-- Identify extracts with high consecutive failure counts or long run times.
-- Compare scheduled frequency against actual job completion times to recommend schedule optimization.
-- Find jobs that overlap or compete for resources in the same time window.
-
-### Available fields
-
-| Category | Fields |
-|----------|--------|
-| **Job identity** | Job ID, Job LUID, Job Type, Job Result, Final Job Result |
-| **Item details** | Item ID, Item LUID, Item Name, Item Type, Item Hyperlink |
-| **Timing (UTC)** | Created At, Queued At, Started At, Completed At, Overflow Queued At |
-| **Timing (local)** | Created At (local), Queued At (local), Started At (local), Completed At (local), Overflow Queued At (local) |
-| **Durations (seconds)** | Job Duration, Job Execution Duration, Job Queued Duration, Job Overflow Queued Duration |
-| **Schedule** | Schedule Name, Schedule LUID |
-| **Owner/Project** | Owner Email, Parent Project Name, Parent Project Owner Email |
-| **Extract** | Extract File Size |
-| **Subscription** | Subscriber Email, Subscriber ID, Subscription Subject |
-| **Bridge** | Agent Name, Agent Version, Agent Timezone, Agent is Pooled?, Pool Name, Bridge Started At, Bridge Completed At, Bridge Started At (Local), Bridge Completed At (Local), Bridge Refresh Duration, Bridge Extract Upload Duration, Bridge Job Result, Bridge Error Message, Bridge Error Type, Bridge Initiator User Name |
-| **Flags** | Was Manual Run, Was Overflow Queued |
-| **Other** | Error Message, Admin Insights Published At |
-
-Example:
-
-```json
-{
-  "query": {
-    "fields": [
-      { "fieldCaption": "Item Name" },
-      { "fieldCaption": "Job Type" },
-      { "fieldCaption": "Job Result" },
-      { "fieldCaption": "Started At" },
-      { "fieldCaption": "Job Duration" },
-      { "fieldCaption": "Schedule Name" }
-    ],
-    "filters": [
-      {
-        "field": { "fieldCaption": "Job Type" },
-        "filterType": "SET",
-        "values": ["RefreshExtracts"],
-        "exclude": false
-      }
-    ]
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Optional arguments
-
-### `limit`
-
-The maximum number of rows to return. The tool will pass this through as `rowLimit` on the VDS
-request and additionally truncate the response if VDS returns more rows than requested.
-
-Example: `500`
-
-See also: [`MAX_RESULT_LIMIT`](../../configuration/mcp-config/env-vars.md#max_result_limit)
-
-## Parameters
-
-The Job Performance datasource exposes a `Timezone` parameter (integer offset, e.g. `-7` for PDT).
-Local-time fields (`Started At (local)`, `Completed At (local)`, etc.) are adjusted by this
-parameter. Pass it via the `parameters` field of the query object if you need local-time output.
-
-## Notes and caveats
-
-- Tableau Cloud Job Performance lookback caps at **90 days by default** (365 days with Advanced
-  Management).
-- The datasource does not support server-side pagination — use filters and `limit` to control
-  response size. For large sites, always filter by `Job Type` and/or a date range on `Started At`.
-- This tool intentionally bypasses the standard datasource access checker because the Admin
-  Insights datasources are internal/known and admin-gated independently.
-- For the complete field schema with data types and descriptions, use
-  [`get-datasource-metadata`](../data-qna/get-datasource-metadata.md) with the Job Performance
-  datasource LUID.
-
-## Example result
-
-```json
-{
-  "data": [
-    {
-      "Item Name": "Sales Pipeline",
-      "Job Type": "RefreshExtracts",
-      "Job Result": "Succeeded",
-      "Started At": "2026-05-28T08:00:12Z",
-      "Job Duration": 45.2,
-      "Schedule Name": "Daily at 8am"
-    },
-    {
-      "Item Name": "Marketing Dashboard",
-      "Job Type": "RefreshExtracts",
-      "Job Result": "Failed",
-      "Started At": "2026-05-28T08:15:00Z",
-      "Job Duration": 120.8,
-      "Schedule Name": "Daily at 8am"
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```

-
-- The MCP prompt `job-optimization-inform` invokes this tool and renders the results as a job
-  optimization report for human-in-the-loop review. It defaults to extract refresh jobs and can
-  discover and analyze every job type on the site.

-
-Common usage:

-

-
-See also: [`MAX_RESULT_LIMIT`](../../configuration/mcp-config/env-vars.md#max_result_limit)
-
-## Notes and caveats
-
-- `Site Content` exposes a native `Last Accessed At` field per item — the value is `null` for
-  items that have never been accessed. This is a key advantage over a TS Events anti-join, which
-  is bounded by the 90-day event lookback window.
-- Field captions on `Site Content` differ from those on `TS Events` on the same site (e.g.
-  `Item ID` here vs `Item Id` on TS Events; `Item Parent Project Name` here vs `Project Name`
-  on TS Events). Inspect the dataset schema with
-  [`get-datasource-metadata`](../data-qna/get-datasource-metadata.md) when in doubt.
-- The `Item ID` field is returned as an integer by VDS, not a string.
-- This tool intentionally bypasses the standard datasource access checker because the Admin
-  Insights datasources are internal/known and admin-gated independently.

+# Query Admin Insights
+
+Queries all three Tableau Cloud Admin Insights datasources and the deterministic stale-content
+report through a single entry point. Dispatches on `kind` to one of four backends:
+
+- `ts-events` — raw VDS query against the `TS Events` datasource (audit events: access, publish,
+  update, delete)
+- `site-content` — raw VDS query against the `Site Content` datasource (content metadata,
+  ownership, sizes)
+- `job-performance` — raw VDS query against the `Job Performance` datasource (extract refresh and
+  subscription execution history)
+- `stale-content` — server-side anti-join that returns already-filtered stale rows with no
+  client-side math required. Subject to a server-side row cap
+  ([`STALE_CONTENT_MAX_ROWS`](../../configuration/mcp-config/env-vars.md#stale_content_max_rows),
+  default `100`) — see [Row cap](#row-cap-stale-content).
+
+The tool is admin-only — it is registered only when `ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED=true`, and at request
+time it verifies the caller's site role and rejects anything below
+`SiteAdministratorCreator` / `SiteAdministratorExplorer` / `ServerAdministrator`. Admin Insights
+datasource LUIDs are resolved automatically; callers do not pass `datasourceLuid`.
+
+
+## APIs called
+
+- [Query Datasource (VDS)](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/vizql-data-service/en-us/reference/index.html#tag/HeadlessBI/operation/QueryDatasource)
+  — issues the VDS query for `ts-events`, `site-content`, `job-performance`, and the `stale-content` backend
+- [Query Data Sources (REST)](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_ref_data_sources.htm#query_data_sources)
+  — used internally to resolve Admin Insights dataset LUIDs
+- [Query Projects (REST)](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_ref_projects.htm#query_projects)

+- [Get User on Site (REST)](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_ref_users_and_groups.htm#get_user_on_site)
+  — used internally for the admin gate
+
+## Required arguments
+
+### `kind`
+
+Which admin-insights backend to query:
+- `ts-events` — raw VDS query against TS Events
+- `site-content` — raw VDS query against Site Content
+- `job-performance` — raw VDS query against Job Performance
+- `stale-content` — deterministic stale-content anti-join
+
+### `query`
+
+**Required when `kind` is `ts-events`, `site-content`, or `job-performance`.**
+Ignored when `kind` is `stale-content`.
+
+A fully formed VDS [`query`](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/vizql-data-service/en-us/reference/index.html#tag/HeadlessBI/operation/QueryDatasource)
+object: `fields`, `filters`, `parameters`. The schema mirrors the schema accepted by the
+[`query-datasource`](../data-qna/query-datasource.md) tool.
+
+Example (TS Events — last-access per item):
+
+```json
+{
+  "kind": "ts-events",
+  "query": {
+    "fields": [
+      { "fieldCaption": "Item Id" },
+      { "fieldCaption": "Item Type" },
+      { "fieldCaption": "Event Date", "function": "MAX", "fieldAlias": "last_access" }
+    ],
+    "filters": [
+      {
+        "field": { "fieldCaption": "Event Type" },
+        "filterType": "SET",
+        "values": ["Access"],
+        "exclude": false
+      }
+    ]
+  },
+  "limit": 500
+}
+```
+
+## Optional arguments
+
+### `limit`
+
+The maximum number of rows to return. Applied when `kind` is `ts-events`, `site-content`, or
+`job-performance`; **ignored** for `stale-content`.
+
+The effective row limit is the **tightest** of:
+1. The tool cap (`MAX_RESULT_LIMITS=query-admin-insights:N`)
+2. The caller-supplied `limit`
+
+
+See also: [`MAX_RESULT_LIMIT`](../../configuration/mcp-config/env-vars.md#max_result_limit)
+
+<hr />
+
+### `minAgeDays`
+
+**For `kind="stale-content"` only.** Minimum days since last access for content to be considered
+stale. Falls back to the server-configured
+[`STALE_CONTENT_MIN_AGE_DAYS`](../../configuration/mcp-config/env-vars.md), which defaults to `90`.
+
+Range: `1`–`3650`.
+
+Example: `30`
+
+<hr />
+
+### `projectIds`
+
+**For `kind="stale-content"` only.** Optional list of project LUIDs to scope the report to.
+Resolved to project names via the REST API. Invalid or out-of-scope LUIDs are reported in
+`mcp.warnings` rather than silently dropped. If none resolve, the tool returns an empty report.
+
+Example: `["af59ee84-a375-4cb4-84b9-eaa7864f59fb"]`
+
+<hr />
+
+### `itemTypes`
+
+**For `kind="stale-content"` only.** Optional filter for item types. Defaults to
+`["Workbook", "Datasource"]`.
+
+Example: `["Datasource"]`
+
+## Row cap (`stale-content`)
+
+The `stale-content` backend enforces a **server-side row cap** to protect the destructive
+stale-content cleanup flow from acting on an unreviewed mass set. The cap is configured by
+[`STALE_CONTENT_MAX_ROWS`](../../configuration/mcp-config/env-vars.md#stale_content_max_rows)
+(default `100`, range `1`–`10000`; overridable per-site and per-request).
+
+When the stale-item count is **at or below** the cap, the full `rows` array is returned as usual.
+
+When the count **exceeds** the cap, the tool:
+
+- returns an empty `rows` array (`rows: []`) — the row payload is withheld so a caller cannot act on
+  an unreviewed batch;
+- still reports the **true** pre-cap totals in `totalStaleItems` and `totalStaleSizeBytes`, so a
+  read-only report can state the magnitude;
+- appends a structured `ROW_CAP_EXCEEDED` warning (severity `ERROR`) to `mcp.warnings` guiding the
+  caller to narrow scope (e.g. a specific `projectIds` subset or a higher `minAgeDays`) and re-run.
+
+This is a **successful** result, not an error — only the row payload is withheld.
+
+## Notes and caveats
+
+- Tableau Cloud TS Events lookback caps at **90 days by default** (365 days with Advanced
+  Management). Items beyond the lookback cannot be distinguished on last-access timestamps.
+- Field captions differ between datasources — e.g. `Item Id` (TS Events) vs `Item ID` (Site
+  Content). Inspect with [`get-datasource-metadata`](../data-qna/get-datasource-metadata.md)
+  when in doubt.
+- The `stale-content` backend excludes the Tableau-managed `Admin Insights` project by design.
+- `Last Accessed At` is `null` for never-accessed items; the stale-content backend ages those
+  from `Created At` and flags them `neverAccessed: true`.
+- The `stale-content` backend caps returned rows at
+  [`STALE_CONTENT_MAX_ROWS`](../../configuration/mcp-config/env-vars.md#stale_content_max_rows)
+  (default `100`). Above the cap, `rows` is empty but `totalStaleItems` still reflects the true
+  count and a `ROW_CAP_EXCEEDED` warning is attached — see [Row cap](#row-cap-stale-content).
+- This tool intentionally bypasses the standard datasource access checker because Admin Insights
+  datasources are internal/known and admin-gated independently.

+# Delete Content
+
+Permanently deletes a workbook, published data source, or extract refresh task. Dispatches on
+`resourceType`:
+
+- `workbook` — deletes a workbook (recoverable via recycle bin on Tableau Cloud)
+- `datasource` — deletes a published data source (recoverable via recycle bin; warns on downstream dependents)
+- `extract-refresh-task` — deletes an extract refresh task schedule (permanent, not recoverable)
+
+The tool is **admin-only** — it is registered only when `ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED=true`, and at
+request time it verifies the caller's site role and rejects anything below
+`SiteAdministratorCreator` / `SiteAdministratorExplorer` / `ServerAdministrator`.
+
+
+## Two-phase safety
+
+The tool is **two-phase** to keep the destructive action safe:
+
+1. **Preview** (default — `confirm` omitted or `false`):
+   - For `workbook` / `datasource`: tags the resource with `pending-deletion` (reversible,
+     visible in the Tableau UI), reports identity, project, and owner.
+   - For `extract-refresh-task`: first verifies the task exists on the site (there is no single-get
+     endpoint, so the task list is checked for a matching id) — an unknown `taskId` returns a
+     not-found error and **no** `confirmationToken` is minted. When the task exists, mints a
+     single-use `confirmationToken` and reports task metadata.
+   - Does **not** delete anything.
+
+2. **Confirm** (`confirm: true`):
+   - For `workbook` / `datasource`: re-fetches the resource and verifies the pending-deletion
+     tag is present before deleting (server-authoritative gate — cannot be bypassed by guessing).
+   - For `extract-refresh-task`: verifies the `confirmationToken` matches the nonce from the
+     preview.
+   - Performs the deletion.
+
+:::warning Human confirmation required
+Between the preview and the confirm, the calling agent is instructed to surface the resource
+identity to the user and obtain explicit approval. This is a prompt-level expectation; the
+tag/nonce gate proves a preview ran but cannot observe whether a human actually approved.
+
+When the `mcp-apps` feature flag is enabled, the model-driven `confirm: true` path is **closed**
+entirely — deletion requires a human gesture in the in-iframe confirm panel.
+:::
+
+## Tool scoping
+
+This tool honors the same [tool-scoping](../../configuration/mcp-config/tool-scoping.md) rules as
+the read tools. If the server is configured with a bounded context (`INCLUDE_WORKBOOK_IDS`,
+`INCLUDE_PROJECT_IDS`, `INCLUDE_DATASOURCE_IDS`, `INCLUDE_TAGS`), a resource outside that scope
+cannot be previewed or deleted — the request is rejected before any side effects.

+
+## Required arguments
+
+### `resourceType`
+
+The kind of resource to delete: `"workbook"`, `"datasource"`, or `"extract-refresh-task"`.
+
+### `resourceId`
+
+The LUID of the workbook or data source, or the UUID of the extract refresh task.

+
+## Optional arguments
+
+### `confirm`
+
+When omitted or `false`, runs the non-destructive preview. When `true`, permanently deletes —
+but only if the prior-preview evidence is present (tag for workbook/datasource,
+`confirmationToken` for extract-refresh-task).
+
+Example: `true`
+
+<hr />
+
+### `tag`
+
+**For `resourceType="workbook"` or `"datasource"` only.** The pending-deletion tag label.
+Reversible and visible in the Tableau UI. Defaults to `pending-deletion`.
+
+Example: `"stale-pending-deletion"`
+
+<hr />
+
+### `confirmationToken`
+
+**For `resourceType="extract-refresh-task"` only.** The single-use token returned by a prior
+preview call. Required when `confirm` is `true`; ignored otherwise.
+
+## Audit records and durability
+
+Every mutation attempt — allowed, denied, completed, or failed — emits a single authoritative,
+structured-JSON audit record (actor, tool, action, phase, target identity, evidence kind, result) on
+a dedicated `audit` logger. That logger bypasses the `LOG_LEVEL` severity filter, so an operator
+cannot suppress security-audit records by raising `LOG_LEVEL`. For an extract-refresh-task target,
+the record's `name`/`project`/`owner` derive best-effort from the task's underlying data source or
+workbook (the task itself has no such fields); if that lookup fails the record still carries the task
+id.
+
+**Durability is the deployment's responsibility.** The server only emits these records to its log
+stream (stderr/stdout/file). To retain them, operators must ship that audit-logger stream to a
+durable, ideally immutable, log store (SIEM, log archive, etc.). There is no built-in durable audit
+sink in this server.
+
+## Side effects
+
+- **Preview (workbook/datasource)** adds the pending-deletion tag. Reversible.
+- **Preview (extract-refresh-task)** mints an ephemeral nonce (no visible side effect on the task).
+- **Confirm (workbook/datasource)** removes the resource. On Tableau Cloud it goes to the
+  [recycle bin](https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-us/recycle_bin.htm) and can be
+  restored for a limited time.
+- **Confirm (extract-refresh-task)** permanently deletes the task schedule. Not recoverable.

-# Delete Datasource
-
-Deletes a published data source from the current Tableau site as the destructive step of the
-Stale Content Cleanup workflow.
-
-This tool is **admin-only** and is registered only when the `ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED` environment variable is
-enabled. Non-administrator callers are rejected before any action is taken.
-
-The tool is **two-phase** to keep the destructive action safe:
-
-1. **Preview** (default — `confirm` omitted or `false`): tags the data source with
-   `pending-deletion` (reversible, visible in the Tableau UI; label configurable via the `tag`
-   argument), reports the data source name, project, and owner, **warns which workbooks and flows
-   depend on it and may break**, and does **not** delete anything.
-2. **Delete** (`confirm: true`): permanently removes the data source. Before deleting, the server
-   re-fetches the data source and **verifies it carries the pending-deletion tag** applied in the
-   preview step. A confirmed delete against an untagged data source is rejected (see the
-   [server-authoritative gate](#server-authoritative-gate) note). On Tableau Cloud the data source
-   is moved to the [recycle bin](https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-us/recycle_bin.htm)
-   and can be restored for a limited time before permanent removal; on Tableau Server there is no
-   recycle bin and deletion is permanent.
-
-:::warning[Human confirmation required — advisory, not enforced]
-Between the preview and the delete, the calling agent is instructed (via the tool description and
-the preview response) to surface the data source identity **and its dependent content** to the user
-and obtain explicit approval before deleting. This human-approval step is a **prompt-level
-expectation, not a server guarantee**: the tag gate proves a preview *ran*, but the server cannot
-observe whether a human actually approved. An agent that calls preview and then confirm itself
-satisfies the gate with no human in the loop. Enforcing true human-in-the-loop (out-of-band
-approval the agent cannot forge) is tracked as follow-up work.
-:::
-
-### MCP-Apps confirm panel (cooperative human-in-the-loop)
-
-When the `mcp-apps` feature flag is enabled, this tool ships with an MCP App and the
-preview phase renders an in-iframe **confirm panel** (data source name, project, owner, and a live
-countdown) instead of returning preview text the model could act on. The destructive delete is then
-performed only when a person clicks **Delete data source** in that panel, which invokes the
-model-invisible `confirm-delete-datasource` tool (`visibility: ['app']`). With the flag on, the
-model-driven `confirm: true` path is **closed** — the assistant cannot delete on the user's behalf;
-the only route to deletion is the human gesture. The confirm tool re-verifies **both** the live
-`pending-deletion` tag **and** a fresh, single-use human approval recorded during the preview (within
-`MUTATION_PREVIEW_TTL_MINUTES`, default 5); either missing rejects the delete. When the flag is off
-the tool behaves exactly as the two-phase `confirm`/tag flow described above.
-
-:::warning[Cooperative, not server-enforced]
-This is **cooperative** human-in-the-loop: it depends on the MCP client honoring `visibility: ['app']`
-(hiding the `confirm-*` tool from the model) and rendering the confirm panel. The human approval is
-recorded during the model-driven preview phase, so a **non-cooperating** client that ignores the
-visibility hint could still drive `preview → confirm-*` back-to-back with no human gesture. For this
-data source tool the live `pending-deletion` tag re-check still proves a preview *ran*, but neither
-gate proves a *human approved*. Server-enforced HITL (an approval primitive the model cannot forge or
-reach) is tracked as follow-up work (W-23125362).
-:::
-
-### Server-authoritative gate
-
-The confirm phase does not trust any caller-supplied value. It re-fetches the data source from
-Tableau and only deletes if the data source is currently tagged `pending-deletion` (or the custom
-`tag` value). The tag is server-side state that the caller can only set by running the preview
-phase, so the gate genuinely proves a preview happened — it **cannot** be bypassed by computing or
-guessing a token, which the prior `confirmationToken` (a caller-derivable `sha256`) could be. The
-live re-fetch deliberately ignores any cached copy so the check reflects the data source's current
-state at delete time.
-
-**What this gate does and does not guarantee.** It proves a preview *ran* (closing the
-caller-computable-token bypass). It does **not** prove a *human approved* — an agent that runs both
-the preview and the confirm satisfies it on its own. Server-enforced human-in-the-loop requires an
-out-of-band approval primitive (e.g. MCP URL-mode elicitation) and is tracked as follow-up work.
-
-:::note[Authoritative audit]
-Every mutation attempt — both the preview and the confirmed delete, and both allowed and denied
-attempts (for example a non-admin caller, or a confirm without a prior preview) — emits a structured
-authoritative audit record to the server's durable log sink (logger `audit`, level `notice`), not
-just to the tool-response text. Each record captures the actor identity (username, user/site LUID,
-site name), the tool, action, phase, the target (id, name, project, owner), the confirmation evidence
-kind (`tag` here), and the result. The raw tag is described, never anything secret. This routing is
-centralized in the shared mutation guard so every TMCP mutation tool audits identically.
-:::
-
-:::note[Dependent content is not deleted]
-Deleting a published data source does **not** delete the workbooks or flows that use it. Those
-items remain but lose this data source (their views/extracts may break). The preview phase surfaces
-these dependents so you can decide before deleting. The dependency check uses the Metadata API; if
-the Metadata API is disabled or unavailable, the preview notes that and still allows deletion.
-:::
-
-## Tool scoping
-
-This tool honors the same [tool-scoping](../../configuration/mcp-config/tool-scoping.md) rules as the
-read tools (for example [Get Datasource Metadata](get-datasource-metadata.md)). If the server is
-configured with a bounded context (such as `INCLUDE_DATASOURCE_IDS` or `INCLUDE_PROJECT_IDS`), a data
-source that falls outside that scope cannot be previewed or deleted — the request is rejected before
-any tag or delete, so there are no side effects. Being an administrator does not bypass tool scoping.

+# Get Flow
+
+Retrieves detailed information about a specific Tableau Prep flow, including its output steps and
+optionally its input data connections and recent flow runs.
+
+## APIs called
+
+- [Query Flow](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_ref_flow.htm#query_flow)
+- [Query Flow Connections](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_ref_flow.htm#query_flow_connections)
+  (optional)
+- [Get Flow Runs](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_ref_flow.htm#get_flow_runs)
+  (optional, requires Tableau REST API >= 3.10)
+
+## Required Tableau API scopes
+
+When the MCP server authenticates with OAuth (connected-app JWT), this tool requests at most:
+
+- `tableau:flows:read` (always)
+- `tableau:mcp_site_settings:read` (always)
+- `tableau:flow_connections:read` (only when `includeConnections: true`)
+- `tableau:flow_runs:read` (only when `includeFlowRuns: true`)
+
+The sidecar scopes are requested **only** for the sidecars you ask for, so a metadata-only call
+(`includeConnections: false, includeFlowRuns: false`) succeeds against a connected app that grants
+just `tableau:flows:read` (plus the always-on site-settings scope). Flows use the dedicated
+`tableau:flows:read` scope, not the `tableau:content:read` scope used by workbooks, data sources,
+and views. See [OAuth configuration](../../configuration/mcp-config/oauth.md) for details.
+
+## Required arguments
+
+### `flowId`
+
+The ID of the flow, potentially retrieved by the [List Flows](list-flows.md) tool.
+
+Example: `d00700fe-28a0-4ece-a7af-5543ddf38a82`
+
+## Optional arguments
+
+### `includeConnections`
+
+When `true` (default), additionally returns the input data connections for the flow.
+
+If the connections sidecar call fails (e.g. permissions error), the tool still returns the flow
+metadata and emits a warning under `mcp.warnings` instead of failing the entire call.
+
+When `false`, the tool also **narrows the Tableau API scopes requested at JWT sign-in** — it does
+not request `tableau:flow_connections:read`. This means a metadata-only call succeeds against a
+Connected App that grants only `tableau:flows:read`, even when the operator chose not to grant the
+optional sidecar scopes. If both `includeConnections` and `includeFlowRuns` are `false`, the JWT
+requests only `tableau:flows:read` plus the always-on site-settings scope.
+
+### `includeFlowRuns`
+
+When `true` (default), additionally returns the most recent flow runs for this flow.
+
+Requires Tableau REST API version 3.10 (Tableau Server 2020.4) or later. On older servers, this
+sidecar call is skipped and a `VERSION_GATE_SKIPPED` warning is emitted under `mcp.warnings`.
+
+When `false`, the tool also **narrows the Tableau API scopes requested at JWT sign-in** — it does
+not request `tableau:flow_runs:read`. See `includeConnections` above for the metadata-only
+deployment story.
+
+### `flowRunLimit`
+
+The maximum number of recent flow runs to return when `includeFlowRuns` is `true`. Must be between 1
+and 100. Default: `10`. Runs are sorted by `startedAt` descending (newest first).
+
+When the flow has more historical runs than this limit, the tool returns the most-recent slice and
+emits a [`FLOW_RUNS_TRUNCATED`](#run-history-truncation-flow_runs_truncated) warning under
+`mcp.warnings`. **There is no other signal in the response that distinguishes a truncated history
+from a complete one** — always inspect `mcp.warnings` before reporting "complete history" to the
+user.
+
+## Response-size guidance
+
+By default this tool returns metadata + output steps + all connections + the 10 most-recent runs.
+Each sidecar adds payload, so the tool description steers the LLM toward the narrowest call that
+answers the user's question:
+
+| Question shape                              | Recommended arguments                               |
+| ------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| "What is this flow?" (just metadata)        | `includeConnections: false, includeFlowRuns: false` |
+| "What does this flow read from?"            | `includeFlowRuns: false` (keep `connections`)       |
+| "Did the latest run succeed?" (status only) | `flowRunLimit: 1` (or 3)                            |
+| "Show me the run history"                   | `flowRunLimit: <n>` up to 100                       |
+
+When in doubt, prefer the lower limit — the LLM can always re-call with a higher limit if the first
+response is insufficient.
+
+## Partial failure (`mcp.warnings`)
+
+The primary
+[Query Flow](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_ref_flow.htm#query_flow)
+call is atomic; if it fails, the tool returns an error.
+
+The optional `connections` and `flowRuns` sidecars are best-effort. If either of them fails (for
+example, the user lacks permission, the server is too old, or the request times out) the tool will
+still return the flow's primary metadata and surface a structured warning instead of failing the
+whole tool call. The tool can emit three warning types:
+
+### `SIDECAR_FETCH_FAILED`
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "SIDECAR_FETCH_FAILED",
+  "severity": "WARNING",
+  "message": "Failed to fetch connections: HTTP 403 Forbidden",
+  "affectedField": "connections",
+  "httpStatus": "403"
+}
+```
+
+### `VERSION_GATE_SKIPPED`
+
+Emitted when `includeFlowRuns: true` but the Tableau server is older than REST API 3.10 (Tableau
+Server 2020.4):
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "VERSION_GATE_SKIPPED",

+```
+
+### Run-history truncation (`FLOW_RUNS_TRUNCATED`)
+
+Emitted when the flow has more runs than `flowRunLimit`. The `flowRuns` array contains the
+most-recent slice; older runs exist but are NOT in the response.
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "FLOW_RUNS_TRUNCATED",
+  "severity": "WARNING",
+  "message": "Returned the 10 most-recent flow runs (sorted startedAt desc). The flow has additional historical runs not included in this response. To see more runs: 1. Re-call this tool with a higher `flowRunLimit` (max 100). 2. For deeper history (more than 100 runs) use the Tableau Flow Runs REST API directly with `filter=flowId:eq:<id>` and `pageNumber` pagination, or with a date-range filter (e.g. `startedAt:gt:<iso-timestamp>`).",
+  "affectedField": "flowRuns",
+  "returnedCount": 10
+}
+```
+
+**Why this warning exists.** The Tableau Flow Runs endpoint (`GET /sites/{site}/flows/runs`) does
+not return a `pagination` block, so the tool cannot read `totalAvailable` to know whether the
+response was truncated. Instead it uses the **"+1 probe"** technique: request `flowRunLimit + 1`
+rows in a single call; if more than `flowRunLimit` come back, the array was truncated and this
+warning is emitted (verified live against Tableau REST 3.30).
+
+**Recovery actions.** When you see this warning:
+
+1. If the user wants more recent context, re-call with a higher `flowRunLimit` (up to 100).
+2. If the user wants deeper history (more than 100 runs, or a specific date range), this tool cannot
+   satisfy it in v0. Recommend the user query the Tableau Flow Runs REST API directly with
+   `filter=flowId:eq:<id>` and `pageNumber` pagination, or with a date-range filter such as
+   `startedAt:gt:2025-01-01T00:00:00Z`.
+
+**Anti-patterns.** Do NOT confidently report a partial run history (e.g. "this flow has run 10
+times") when this warning is present — the response is a window onto a longer history, not the
+complete record. Daily-running production flows can easily accumulate hundreds of runs per year.
+
+## Limitations
+
+A few things this tool deliberately does **not** expose in the current version:
+
+- **No error details for `Failed` flow runs.** The `flowRuns[*].status` field is available (e.g.
+  `Success`, `Failed`, `Cancelled`), but the underlying job error message is not surfaced by the
+  public Tableau REST API and is therefore not exposed here. To investigate a failure, inspect the
+  run in the Tableau Server / Cloud UI.
+- **No per-output-step run details.** The `flowRuns` field reflects ad-hoc runs returned by the
+  public REST API; per-output-step success/failure breakdowns and timings are not included.
+- **No exact total-run count.** Tableau's Flow Runs endpoint does not expose a `totalAvailable`
+  field, so the tool cannot report exactly how many runs exist beyond what was returned — only
+  whether more do, via the [`FLOW_RUNS_TRUNCATED`](#run-history-truncation-flow_runs_truncated)
+  warning. For deeper history queries, see the recovery actions on that warning.

+# List Flows
+
+Retrieves a list of Tableau Prep flows on a site.
+
+## APIs called
+
+- [Query Flows for Site](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_ref_flow.htm#query_flows_for_site)
+
+## Required Tableau API scopes
+
+When the MCP server authenticates with OAuth (connected-app JWT), this tool requests:
+
+- `tableau:flows:read`
+- `tableau:mcp_site_settings:read`
+
+Note that flows use the dedicated `tableau:flows:read` scope, not the `tableau:content:read` scope
+used by workbooks, data sources, and views. See
+[OAuth configuration](../../configuration/mcp-config/oauth.md) for how scopes are negotiated.
+
+## Optional arguments
+
+### `filter`
+
+A
+[filter expression](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_concepts_filtering_and_sorting.htm)
+in the format `field:operator:value`. Multiple expressions are combined with a comma using a logical
+AND.
+
+Supported fields and operators. This list mirrors the official
+[Filtering and Sorting](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_concepts_filtering_and_sorting.htm)
+reference for the Flows endpoint. The Tableau Flows endpoint accepts a narrower filter-field set
+than other content endpoints — `ownerEmail`, `ownerDomain`, and `tags` are **not** supported and
+will be rejected by the server.
+
+| Field         | Operators              | Notes                                                                                 |
+| ------------- | ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `createdAt`   | `eq, gt, gte, lt, lte` | ISO 8601 `YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ` or date-only `YYYY-MM-DD` (auto-promoted to midnight) |
+| `name`        | `eq, in`               | Flow name (case-sensitive — pass exact case; whitespace-sensitive)                    |
+| `ownerName`   | `eq`                   | **Matches `user.fullName` (display name), NOT login/email.** See "ownerName" below.   |
+| `projectId`   | `eq`                   | Project UUID                                                                          |
+| `projectName` | `eq, in`               | Project name (case-sensitive — pass exact case; whitespace-sensitive)                 |
+| `updatedAt`   | `eq, gt, gte, lt, lte` | ISO 8601 `YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ` or date-only `YYYY-MM-DD` (auto-promoted to midnight) |
+
+Examples:
+
+- `name:eq:DailySalesCleanup`
+- `projectId:eq:6f8a2966-e173-11e8-ae74-ffd84c19d7f3`
+
+#### Caller-role visibility (important for sizing the response)
+
+The set of flows Tableau returns depends on the caller's role on the site:
+
+- **Non-admin callers** — Tableau returns only flows the caller has Read (view) permission for. On
+  shared sites this is still typically many more flows than the user owns, so an unfiltered call is
+  rarely "just my flows".
+- **Server / site-admin callers** — Tableau returns **every flow on the site** regardless of
+  permissions; the permission filter does not apply. On large enterprise sites this can be thousands
+  of flows, so [`mcp.resultInfo.truncated`](#response-shape) is much more likely to come back `true`
+  on the first call.
+
+In both cases, scope down with `ownerName` (matched against `fullName` only — not email/login/UUID),
+`projectId` (UUID), `projectName`, or a date-range `createdAt` / `updatedAt` filter when the user's
+intent is narrower than "every flow visible to me on this site".
+
+#### Filter value semantics (important)
+
+Several filter fields have non-obvious value contracts that the official spec under-specifies or
+contradicts. The findings below were verified live against Tableau REST 3.30. When this tool detects
+a likely shape-mismatch on an empty result, the response includes a structured **empty-result hint**
+so the LLM can self-correct rather than reporting a misleading zero.
+
+##### `ownerName` — matches display name only
+
+Matches against `user.fullName` (display name) only. It does **not** match login (`user.name`, often
+an email on federated sites) or user id. The Flows endpoint does not currently expose `ownerEmail`,
+`ownerDomain`, or `ownerId` filter fields, so `ownerName` is the only owner-based filter available.
+
+```
+ownerName:eq:Jane Doe                                   # ✅ matches by display name
+ownerName:eq:jane.doe@example.com                       # ❌ silently returns 0 flows
+ownerName:eq:711e59cf-d1c0-446e-be48-3673ae067f7b       # ❌ silently returns 0 flows
+```
+
+If the supplied value looks like a login (no whitespace), email (contains `@`), or user id
+(canonical UUID shape) and the response is empty, the tool returns a recovery hint suggesting either
+a Users REST API lookup or re-listing without the filter to inspect `owner.fullName`.
+
+##### `projectId` — must be a UUID
+
+Must be the project's UUID (canonical 8-4-4-4-12 hex form). Any other value (including a project
+name) silently returns 0 results.
+
+```
+projectId:eq:6f8a2966-e173-11e8-ae74-ffd84c19d7f3   # ✅ matches the named project
+projectId:eq:Finance                                # ❌ silently returns 0 flows
+projectId:eq:not-a-uuid                             # ❌ silently returns 0 flows
+```
+
+If the supplied value is not in canonical UUID shape and the response is empty, the tool returns a
+recovery hint suggesting `projectName:eq:<name>` or a Projects REST API lookup.
+
+##### `name`, `projectName` — case-sensitive and whitespace-sensitive
+
+Per the official Tableau REST API spec, values are **case-sensitive** — pass the exact name as it
+appears in Tableau (e.g. `Superstore Flow`, not `superstore flow`). Leading and trailing whitespace
+are also significant: ` Sales Cleanup` (with a leading space) silently returns 0 results. Always
+pass the exact, trimmed name.
+
+Some Tableau versions are observed to match leniently in practice, but don't rely on it — passing
+exact case and trimmed whitespace is portable across all versions.
+
+##### `createdAt`, `updatedAt` — ISO 8601 with `Z` suffix, or date-only
+
+Two accepted forms:
+
+1. Full ISO 8601 with the `Z` UTC suffix, e.g. `2025-01-01T00:00:00Z`.
+2. Date-only `YYYY-MM-DD`, e.g. `2025-01-01` — auto-promoted to midnight UTC
+   (`2025-01-01T00:00:00Z`) before being sent to Tableau. Use this when the user spoke about a
+   calendar day with no time-of-day ("flows updated before Nov 20").
+
+Other shapes — locale-style `MM/DD/YYYY` (ambiguous across locales), no-timezone
+(`2025-01-01T00:00:00`), and offset-style (`2025-01-01T00:00:00+00:00`) — are rejected client-side.
+The Tableau server itself also accepts `+00:00`-style offsets, but the tool pins `Z` to keep the
+contract small and the validation message unambiguous.
+
+```
+createdAt:gt:2025-01-01T00:00:00Z       # ✅ canonical
+createdAt:gt:2025-01-01                 # ✅ auto-promoted to 2025-01-01T00:00:00Z
+createdAt:gt:2025-01-01T00:00:00        # ❌ tool rejects (no timezone)
+createdAt:gt:2025-01-01T00:00:00+00:00  # ❌ tool rejects (offset, not Z)
+createdAt:gt:01/01/2025                 # ❌ tool rejects (locale-ambiguous)
+```
+
+##### `name`, `projectName` with `in:` — bracket-and-comma form
+
+Multi-value lists use the form `name:in:[Foo,Bar]`, where commas separate the items. Items are not
+quoted, so a single item's value cannot itself contain a comma — every comma is read as an item
+separator (a Tableau filter-language limitation, not a tool one).
+
+<hr />
+
+### `sort`
+
+A sort expression in the format `field:asc` or `field:desc`. Combinable with `filter`.
+
+Example: `createdAt:desc`
+
+<hr />
+
+### `pageSize`
+
+The value of the `page-size` argument provided to the
+[Query Flows for Site](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_ref_flow.htm#query_flows_for_site)
+REST API. The tool automatically performs pagination and will repeatedly call the REST API until
+either all flows are retrieved or the `limit` argument has been reached.
+
+Example: `1000`
+
+<hr />
+
+### `limit`
+
+The maximum number of flows to return. The tool will return at most this many flows.
+
+Example: `2000`
+
+See also: [`MAX_RESULT_LIMIT`](../../configuration/mcp-config/env-vars.md#max_result_limit)
+
+## Response-size guidance
+
+This tool returns one record per flow including project, owner, tags, and parameters. On shared
+sites the visible flow count can easily reach hundreds, so the tool description steers the LLM
+toward the narrowest call that answers the user's question:
+
+- **Targeted lookups** ("does flow X exist?", "who owns flow Y?") — always pass `filter` and a small
+  `limit` (e.g. 5).
+- **Scoped exploration** ("flows in the Finance project") — pass `filter` (`projectId` or
+  `projectName`) plus a moderate `limit` (e.g. 25–50).
+- **Broad analytics** ("how many flows per project?") — pass a moderate `limit` (e.g. 100) and
+  paginate further only when explicitly asked.
+- Only call without `limit` when the user explicitly requests a complete or exhaustive listing.
+
+Site administrators can also impose a hard cap with
+[`MAX_RESULT_LIMITS=list-flows:N`](../../configuration/mcp-config/env-vars.md#max_result_limits),
+which always wins over the LLM-supplied `limit`.
+
+## Response shape
+
+The tool returns a JSON object:
+
+```json
+{
+  "flows": [
+    /* one record per flow, see "Example result" below */
+  ],
+  "mcp": {
+    "resultInfo": {
+      "returnedCount": 12,
+      "truncated": false,
+      "totalAvailable": 12
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The top-level `flows` array and `mcp.resultInfo` are **always present**. `resultInfo` reports
+whether the returned list is complete, so the answer never depends on the _absence_ of a signal:
+
+- `returnedCount` — the number of flows in `flows`.
+- `truncated` — `false` means `flows` is the **complete** set matching the request (every flow the
+  caller can see, subject to any `filter`); `true` means more matching flows exist on the server
+  than were returned.
+- `truncationReason` — present only when `truncated` is `true`:
+  - `"requested-limit"` — the caller's own `limit` argument cut the result short. Call again with a
+    higher `limit` (or omit it) to fetch more.
+  - `"admin-cap"` — a site-administrator per-call cap
+    ([`MAX_RESULT_LIMIT`](../../configuration/mcp-config/env-vars.md#max_result_limit) or
+    `MAX_RESULT_LIMITS=list-flows:N`) cut the result short, **and** the caller did not request an
+    equal-or-smaller `limit` itself. The `limit` argument cannot raise the cap, so narrow the
+    `filter` until the matching set fits, or ask the administrator to raise the cap.
+- `totalAvailable` — the total number of flows matching the request on the server (across all pages,
+  ignoring `limit`). **Present only when no server-side allow-list
+  ([`INCLUDE_PROJECT_IDS`](../../configuration/mcp-config/tool-scoping.md#include_project_ids) /
+  [`INCLUDE_TAGS`](../../configuration/mcp-config/tool-scoping.md#include_tags)) is configured** — that count is taken
+  before the tool's allow-list filtering, so under a bounded context it would overstate the
+  accessible total and is therefore omitted rather than risk a misleading "N of M". When present and
+  `truncated` is `true`, use it to report "N of M" (e.g. "showing 100 of 430").
+
+When `truncated` is `true`, do **not** report `returnedCount` as the total. If `totalAvailable` is
+present, report "N of M" (e.g. "showing 100 of 430"); otherwise say "at least N". A truncated
+example:
+
+```json
+{
+  "flows": [
+    /* the first 100 matching flows */
+  ],
+  "mcp": {
+    "resultInfo": {
+      "returnedCount": 100,
+      "truncated": true,
+      "truncationReason": "admin-cap",
+      "totalAvailable": 430
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+:::tip For client / LLM authors `mcp.resultInfo` is a signal **for the model**, not text to show the
+user. Translate it into one plain sentence — "These are all 12 flows matching your request" or "Here
+are the first 100 of 430; more match" — and never surface the field names (or the absence of a
+warning) to the end user. :::
+
+## Example result
+
+```json
+{
+  "flows": [
+    {
+      "id": "d00700fe-28a0-4ece-a7af-5543ddf38a82",

+      },
+      "tags": { "tag": [{ "label": "sales" }] }
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+The `project` and `owner` objects above include all fields that Tableau Server / Cloud is observed
+to return. The official spec only documents `id` (and `name` on `project`); the additional fields
+are captured opportunistically as optional properties and may be absent on older versions or for
+users without visibility into the owner's profile.

-# Delete Extract Refresh Task
-
-Deletes an extract refresh task from the Tableau site. This permanently removes the scheduled extract refresh — the underlying data source or workbook is not affected, but it will no longer be refreshed on this schedule.
-
-:::warning Admin Only
-This tool is restricted to Tableau site administrators and requires the `ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED` environment variable to be enabled.
-:::
-
-:::danger Destructive Operation
-This operation is irreversible. The extract refresh task cannot be recovered once deleted. To re-enable scheduled refreshes, a new task must be created.
-:::
-
-## Two-phase confirm
-
-The tool is **two-phase** to keep the destructive action safe:
-
-1. **Preview** (default — `confirm` omitted or `false`): reports what would be deleted and returns a
-   single-use **confirmation token**. Nothing is deleted.
-2. **Delete** (`confirm: true`): permanently removes the task — but only if the `confirmationToken`
-   from a prior preview call is supplied. The server verifies and consumes the token (single-use). The
-   token is server-generated and unguessable, so this gate genuinely requires the preview phase to
-   have run; it cannot be bypassed by computing a value.
-
-Because an extract refresh task has no durable, taggable state, the confirmation token is held in an
-in-memory registry (TTL configurable via `MUTATION_PREVIEW_TTL_MINUTES`, default 5). The registry is
-not durable across a server restart or shared across instances; the only consequence is that a lost
-token causes a confirm to be **rejected** (re-run the preview) — it can never wrongly allow a delete.
-
-:::warning Human confirmation required
-Between the preview and the delete, the calling agent is instructed (via the tool description and the
-preview response) to surface the task to the user and obtain explicit approval before deleting. The
-token gate guarantees the preview ran, but the **human approval** step is a prompt-level expectation —
-agents must not auto-confirm.
-:::
-
-## MCP-Apps confirm panel (cooperative human-in-the-loop)
-
-When the `mcp-apps` feature flag is enabled, this tool ships with an MCP App and the
-preview phase renders an in-iframe **confirm panel** (the task id and a live countdown) instead of
-returning a confirmation token the model could echo back. The permanent, irreversible delete is then
-performed only when a person clicks **Delete task** in that panel, which invokes the model-invisible
-`confirm-delete-extract-refresh-task` tool (`visibility: ['app']`). With the flag on, the model-driven
-`confirm: true` path is **closed** — the assistant cannot delete on the user's behalf; the only route
-to deletion is the human gesture. Because a task has no durable, taggable state, the human gesture
-itself is the proof: the confirm tool verifies a fresh, single-use human approval recorded during the
-preview (within `MUTATION_PREVIEW_TTL_MINUTES`, default 5); a missing or expired approval rejects the
-delete. When the flag is off the tool behaves exactly as the two-phase `confirm`/`confirmationToken`
-flow described above.
-
-:::warning[Cooperative, not server-enforced]
-This is **cooperative** human-in-the-loop: it depends on the MCP client honoring `visibility: ['app']`
-(hiding the `confirm-*` tool from the model) and rendering the confirm panel. The human approval is
-recorded during the model-driven preview phase, so a **non-cooperating** client that ignores the
-visibility hint could still drive `preview → confirm-*` back-to-back with no human gesture. Unlike the
-workbook and data source delete tools, this task tool has **no tag layer** — the app approval is the
-only gate — so a non-cooperating client has nothing else to clear. Server-enforced HITL (an approval
-primitive the model cannot forge or reach) is tracked as follow-up work (W-23125362).
-:::
-
-:::note[Authoritative audit]
-Every mutation attempt — both the preview and the confirmed delete, and both allowed and denied

+# Update User
+
+Updates the site role of a user on the Tableau site. Primary use case: downgrade inactive users to "Unlicensed" to reclaim licenses.
+
+:::warning Admin Only
+This tool is restricted to Tableau site administrators and requires the `ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED` environment variable to be enabled.
+:::
+
+## Confirm and audit
+
+This mutation is **two-phase**, gated on a server-generated single-use confirmation token:
+
+1. **Preview** (default — `confirm` omitted or `false`): looks up the user, reports the current
+   and proposed site role, and returns a single-use `confirmationToken`.
+2. **Update** (`confirm: true` + `confirmationToken`): applies the role change. The server
+   verifies and consumes the token first.
+
+The token is server-generated and **bound to the previewed `userId` and `siteRole`**: a token minted
+while previewing role A cannot confirm an update to role B, and a `confirm: true` with no prior
+preview (no valid token) is rejected server-side. Present the change to the user and get explicit
+approval before confirming.
+
+## Parameters
+
+| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
+|-----------|------|----------|-------------|
+| `userId` | string | Yes | The LUID of the user to update. Obtain from `list-users`. |
+| `siteRole` | enum | Yes | The new site role: `Creator`, `Explorer`, `ExplorerCanPublish`, `SiteAdministratorCreator`, `SiteAdministratorExplorer`, `Viewer`, `Unlicensed`. |
+| `confirm` | boolean | No | Set `true` to apply the change (requires `confirmationToken`). |
+| `confirmationToken` | string | No | The single-use token from a prior preview call. |
+
+## Example usage
+
+### Preview (dry run)
+
+```json
+{
+  "userId": "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890",
+  "siteRole": "Unlicensed"
+}
+```
+
+Response:
+```
+Preview — user 'jsmith' (john.smith@example.com) would be changed from Creator → Unlicensed.
+No change has been made.
+Once approved, call again with confirm: true and confirmationToken: "..."
+```
+
+### Confirm
+
+```json
+{
+  "userId": "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890",
+  "siteRole": "Unlicensed",
+  "confirm": true,
+  "confirmationToken": "<token from preview>"
+}
+```
+
+Response:
+```
+User 'jsmith' has been successfully updated. New site role: Unlicensed.

-# Delete Workbook
-
-Deletes a workbook from the current Tableau Cloud site as the destructive step of the Stale Content
-Cleanup workflow.
-
-This tool is **admin-only** and is registered only when the `ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED` environment variable is
-enabled. Non-administrator callers are rejected before any action is taken.
-
-The tool is **two-phase** to keep the destructive action safe:
-
-1. **Preview** (default — `confirm` omitted or `false`): tags the workbook with
-   `pending-deletion` (reversible, visible in the Tableau UI; label configurable via the `tag`
-   argument), reports the workbook name, project, and owner, and does **not** delete anything.
-2. **Delete** (`confirm: true`): permanently removes the workbook. Before deleting, the server
-   re-fetches the workbook and **verifies it carries the pending-deletion tag** applied in the
-   preview step. A confirmed delete against an untagged workbook is rejected (see the
-   [server-authoritative gate](#server-authoritative-gate) note). On Tableau Cloud the workbook is
-   moved to the [recycle bin](https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-us/recycle_bin.htm)
-   and can be restored for a limited time before permanent removal.
-
-:::warning Human confirmation required — advisory, not enforced
-Between the preview and the delete, the calling agent is instructed (via the tool description and
-the preview response) to surface the workbook identity to the user and obtain explicit approval
-before deleting. This human-approval step is a **prompt-level expectation, not a server guarantee**:
-the tag gate proves a preview *ran*, but the server cannot observe whether a human actually approved.
-An agent that calls preview and then confirm itself satisfies the gate with no human in the loop.
-Enforcing true human-in-the-loop (out-of-band approval the agent cannot forge) is tracked as
-follow-up work.
-:::
-
-### Server-authoritative gate
-
-The confirm phase does not trust any caller-supplied value. It re-fetches the workbook from Tableau
-and only deletes if the workbook is currently tagged `pending-deletion` (or the custom `tag` value).
-The tag is server-side state that the caller can only set by running the preview phase, so the gate
-genuinely proves a preview happened — it **cannot** be bypassed by computing or guessing a token,
-which the prior `confirmationToken` (a caller-derivable `sha256`) could be. The live re-fetch
-deliberately ignores any cached copy so the check reflects the workbook's current state at delete
-time.
-
-**What this gate does and does not guarantee.** It proves a preview *ran* (closing the
-caller-computable-token bypass). It does **not** prove a *human approved* — an agent that runs both
-the preview and the confirm satisfies it on its own. Server-enforced human-in-the-loop requires an
-out-of-band approval primitive (e.g. MCP URL-mode elicitation) and is tracked as follow-up work.
-
-:::note[Authoritative audit]
-Every mutation attempt — both the preview and the confirmed delete, and both allowed and denied
-attempts (for example a non-admin caller, or a confirm without a prior preview) — emits a structured
-authoritative audit record to the server's durable log sink (logger `audit`, level `notice`), not
-just to the tool-response text. Each record captures the actor identity (username, user/site LUID,
-site name), the tool, action, phase, the target (id, name, project, owner), the confirmation evidence
-kind (`tag` here), and the result. The raw tag is described, never anything secret. This routing is
-centralized in the shared mutation guard so every TMCP mutation tool audits identically.
-:::
-
-## Tool scoping
-
-This tool honors the same [tool-scoping](../../configuration/mcp-config/tool-scoping.md) rules as the
-read tools (for example [Get Workbook](get-workbook.md)). If the server is configured with a bounded
-context (such as `INCLUDE_WORKBOOK_IDS`, `INCLUDE_PROJECT_IDS`, or `INCLUDE_TAGS`), a workbook that
-falls outside that scope cannot be previewed or deleted — the request is rejected before any tag or
-delete, so there are no side effects. Being an administrator does not bypass tool scoping.
-
-## APIs called

-- [Delete Workbook](https://help.tableau.com/current/api/rest_api/en-us/REST/rest_api_ref_workbooks_and_views.htm#delete_workbook) (delete phase)
-
-## Required arguments
-
-### `workbookId`
-
-The LUID of the workbook to delete, potentially retrieved by the [List Workbooks](list-workbooks.md)
-tool.
-
-Example: `222ea993-9391-4910-a167-56b3d19b4e3b`
-
-## Optional arguments
-
-### `confirm`
-
-When omitted or `false`, runs the non-destructive preview (tags and reports). When `true`,
-permanently deletes the workbook — but only if the workbook already carries the pending-deletion tag
-from a prior preview (verified by a live re-fetch; see
-[server-authoritative gate](#server-authoritative-gate)). Pass the same `tag` value used in the
-preview if you overrode the default.
-
-Example: `true`
-
-### `tag`
-
-The label applied to the workbook during the preview phase to mark it as pending deletion.
-Reversible and visible in the Tableau UI. Defaults to `pending-deletion`; callers (for example a
-stale-content cleanup workflow) can override it with their own vocabulary.
-
-Example: `stale-pending-deletion`
-
-## Side effects
-
-- **Preview** adds the pending-deletion tag (`pending-deletion` by default, or the `tag` value) to
-  the workbook. This is reversible and visible in the Tableau UI.
-- **Delete** removes the workbook. On Tableau Cloud the workbook is moved to the recycle bin and can
-  be [restored](https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-us/recycle_bin.htm) for a limited
-  time before it is permanently purged. Always run the preview first and confirm the workbook
-  identity before deleting.

+# Insights → quick vizzes via bind-template
+
+Pointer for the Pulse/Chiron flow: how an insight card becomes a rendered viz in Desktop with **one deterministic tool call** — no LLM re-derivation, no XML.
+
+## The mechanism (already shipped on `feature/desktop`)
+
+`bind-template` maps a semantic ask + slot bindings to a rendered worksheet via checked-in **template manifests** (`src/desktop/data/template-manifests/*.manifest.json`). A confident bind is model-free and renders in ~2s. The card's `build-viz` action (already in `generate-insight-cards`' default action set) should invoke exactly this.
+
+```jsonc
+// one call renders the sheet
+bind-template({
+  "ask": "profit trend by month",           // used for routing/fallback
+  "proposal": {
+    "template": "trend-line-chart",
+    "title": "Profit — monthly trend",      // ≤80 chars
+    "bindings": [
+      { "slot_id": "order_date", "field": "Order Date" },  // card.timeField
+      { "slot_id": "sales",      "field": "Profit" }       // card.measure
+    ],
+    "confidence": 0.95,
+    "sort": { "by": "Profit", "direction": "desc" },        // optional
+    "top_n": 5                                              // optional
+  },
+  "auto_apply": true
+})
+```
+
+Full contract: `src/tools/desktop/binder/proposalSchema.ts` (strict — unknown keys fail closed). Slot/kind vocabulary: `src/desktop/binder/manifest-types.ts`.
+
+## Insight-card fields → slot kinds
+
+The `InsightCard` payload maps 1:1 onto manifest slot kinds:
+
+| Card field | Slot kind | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `measure` | `quantitative` | default derivation comes from the manifest (usually `sum`) |
+| `timeField` | `temporal` | a **string month (`YYYY-MM`) is fine** on `trend-line-chart` — `temporal_from_string` injects a DATEPARSE calc and renders a real continuous axis |
+| `breakdownDimension` | `categorical` | drives bar/ranking/waterfall category slots |
+| `contributors` (count) | `top_n` | "top 5 drivers" = `top_n: 5` + `sort` desc by the measure |
+
+## Routing table: insight shape → template → bindings
+
+Recommended launch set (all `fast_path_eligible`, live render-verified):
+
+| Insight shape | Template | Required bindings (slot_id ← card field) |
+|---|---|---|
+| Trend / "X trended up 12%" (`series` present) | `trend-line-chart` | `order_date` ← timeField, `sales` ← measure |
+| Single number / KPI delta (`headline`+`deltaPct`) | `kpi-text` | `value` ← measure |
+| Magnitude / "biggest category" (`breakdown`) | `magnitude-simple-bar` | `category` ← breakdownDimension, `measure` ← measure |
+| Top contributors / drivers (`contributors`) | `ranking-ordered-bar` | `region` ← breakdownDimension, `sales` ← measure, + `sort`/`top_n` |
+| Share of total (part-to-whole) | `part-to-whole-pie-chart` | `region` ← breakdownDimension, `sales` ← measure |
+| Contribution to a change (share-of-swing) | `part-to-whole-waterfall` | `sub_category` ← breakdownDimension, `profit` ← measure (sort defaults DESC by measure) |
+
+Slot ids are historical names from each template's source workbook — treat them as opaque ids; the **kind** is the contract. 40+ templates exist across 10 families (`time-series`, `ranking`, `part-to-whole`, `correlation`, `distribution`, `deviation`, `magnitude`, `spatial`, `kpi`, `specialized`) — extend the routing table as card types grow.
+
+For a multi-card layout, `dashboard-auto-apply` takes one `{ ask }` per card and composes them into a single dashboard in one call.
+
+## Recommendation: make the extended bundle card carry the bind
+
+Put the template choice + slot mapping **in the card** at generation time (the card generator already knows measure/timeField/breakdownDimension), e.g.:
+
+```jsonc
+"vizProposal": { "template": "trend-line-chart", "bindings": [...], "confidence": 0.95 }
+```
+
+Then "build a viz from this" in chat mode is a deterministic `bind-template` call with a pre-filled proposal — reproducible, ~2s, no model in the loop. Fallback: pass just `{ ask: card.headline }` and let the classifier route (still deterministic on a confident bind, escalates to propose-mode when ambiguous).
+
+## Shared dependency: datasource resolution
+
+Cards are generated against a **published datasource (LUID/contentUrl)**; `bind-template` binds against the **workbook's connected datasource** by live field names. The bridge is the active-sheet → datasource contentUrl/LUID resolution (basic-flow blocker 3) — the same mapping, used in both directions. Field names normally match between the published source and the workbook connection; `resolve-field` handles fuzzy/case drift.

+# Dashboard XML Manipulation Guide
+
+## Dashboard Structure
+
+A Tableau dashboard consists of zones that contain worksheets, text, images, or other dashboards.
+
+### Basic Dashboard XML
+
+```xml
+<dashboard name="Sales Dashboard">
+  <style/>
+  <size maxheight="800" maxwidth="1000"/>
+  <zones>
+    <zone h="100000" w="100000" x="0" y="0" type-v2="layout-basic">
+      <zone h="50000" w="100000" x="0" y="0" name="Sheet 1">
+        <zone-style>
+          <format attr="border-color" value="#000000"/>
+          <format attr="border-style" value="none"/>
+          <format attr="border-width" value="0"/>
+          <format attr="margin" value="4"/>
+        </zone-style>
+      </zone>
+      <zone h="50000" w="100000" x="0" y="50000" name="Sheet 2">
+        <zone-style>
+          <format attr="border-color" value="#000000"/>
+          <format attr="border-style" value="none"/>
+          <format attr="border-width" value="0"/>
+          <format attr="margin" value="4"/>
+        </zone-style>
+      </zone>
+    </zone>
+  </zones>
+  <simple-id uuid="{XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX}"/>
+</dashboard>
+```
+
+NOTE: Remember to also add viewpoints to the window element! See "Critical: Viewpoints" section
+below.
+
+## Key Concepts
+
+### Positioning System
+
+- **Coordinates**: x, y (top-left is 0,0)
+- **Dimensions**: w (width), h (height)
+- **Units**: Values are in 1/100000ths (e.g., 50000 = 50%)
+- **100000 = full width/height**
+
+### Zone Types
+
+#### 1. Container Zone (has child zones)
+
+```xml
+<zone h="100000" w="100000" x="0" y="0" type-v2="layout-basic">
+  <!-- Child zones here -->
+  <zone h="50000" w="50000" x="0" y="0" name="Sheet 1">
+    <zone-style>
+      <format attr="border-color" value="#000000"/>
+      <format attr="border-style" value="none"/>
+      <format attr="border-width" value="0"/>
+      <format attr="margin" value="4"/>
+    </zone-style>
+  </zone>
+</zone>
+```
+
+#### 2. Worksheet Zone (contains a worksheet)
+
+```xml
+<zone h="50000" w="50000" x="0" y="0" name="Sheet 1">
+  <zone-style>
+    <format attr="border-color" value="#000000"/>
+    <format attr="border-style" value="none"/>
+    <format attr="border-width" value="0"/>
+    <format attr="margin" value="4"/>
+  </zone-style>
+</zone>
+```
+
+Note: The worksheet name goes in the `name` attribute on the zone itself, NOT in a child element.
+
+#### 3. Text Zone
+
+```xml
+<zone h="10000" w="100000" x="0" y="0" type-v2="text">
+  <formatted-text>
+    <run>Sales Dashboard</run>
+  </formatted-text>
+  <zone-style>
+    <format attr="border-color" value="#000000"/>
+    <format attr="border-style" value="none"/>
+    <format attr="border-width" value="0"/>
+    <format attr="margin" value="4"/>
+  </zone-style>
+</zone>
+```
+
+## Common Patterns
+
+### Full-Width Header with Two Worksheets Below
+
+```xml
+<zones>
+  <zone h="100000" w="100000" x="0" y="0" type-v2="layout-basic">
+    <!-- Header: 20% height -->
+    <zone h="20000" w="100000" x="0" y="0" type-v2="text">
+      <formatted-text>
+        <run>Dashboard Title</run>
+      </formatted-text>
+      <zone-style>
+        <format attr="border-color" value="#000000"/>
+        <format attr="border-style" value="none"/>
+        <format attr="border-width" value="0"/>
+        <format attr="margin" value="4"/>
+      </zone-style>
+    </zone>
+
+    <!-- Left sheet: 50% width, 80% height -->
+    <zone h="80000" w="50000" x="0" y="20000" name="Sheet 1">
+      <zone-style>
+        <format attr="border-color" value="#000000"/>
+        <format attr="border-style" value="none"/>
+        <format attr="border-width" value="0"/>
+        <format attr="margin" value="4"/>
+      </zone-style>
+    </zone>
+
+    <!-- Right sheet: 50% width, 80% height -->
+    <zone h="80000" w="50000" x="50000" y="20000" name="Sheet 2">
+      <zone-style>
+        <format attr="border-color" value="#000000"/>
+        <format attr="border-style" value="none"/>
+        <format attr="border-width" value="0"/>
+        <format attr="margin" value="4"/>
+      </zone-style>
+    </zone>
+  </zone>
+</zones>
+```
+
+(Remember: viewpoints go in the window element, not the dashboard!)
+
+### 2x2 Grid Layout
+
+```xml
+<zones>
+  <zone h="100000" w="100000" x="0" y="0" type-v2="layout-basic">
+    <!-- Top-left -->
+    <zone h="50000" w="50000" x="0" y="0" name="Sheet 1">
+      <zone-style>
+        <format attr="border-color" value="#000000"/>
+        <format attr="border-style" value="none"/>
+        <format attr="border-width" value="0"/>
+        <format attr="margin" value="4"/>
+      </zone-style>
+    </zone>
+
+    <!-- Top-right -->
+    <zone h="50000" w="50000" x="50000" y="0" name="Sheet 2">
+      <zone-style>
+        <format attr="border-color" value="#000000"/>
+        <format attr="border-style" value="none"/>
+        <format attr="border-width" value="0"/>
+        <format attr="margin" value="4"/>
+      </zone-style>
+    </zone>
+
+    <!-- Bottom-left -->
+    <zone h="50000" w="50000" x="0" y="50000" name="Sheet 3">
+      <zone-style>
+        <format attr="border-color" value="#000000"/>
+        <format attr="border-style" value="none"/>
+        <format attr="border-width" value="0"/>
+        <format attr="margin" value="4"/>
+      </zone-style>
+    </zone>
+
+    <!-- Bottom-right -->
+    <zone h="50000" w="50000" x="50000" y="50000" name="Sheet 4">
+      <zone-style>
+        <format attr="border-color" value="#000000"/>
+        <format attr="border-style" value="none"/>
+        <format attr="border-width" value="0"/>
+        <format attr="margin" value="4"/>
+      </zone-style>
+    </zone>
+  </zone>
+</zones>
+```
+
+## Tips for Manipulation
+
+1. **Always wrap zones in a container**: The root `<zones>` element should contain one main zone at
+   (0,0) with full dimensions and `type-v2="layout-basic"`
+2. **Check worksheet names**: Use worksheet-list readback to get available worksheet names - the
+   worksheet MUST exist in the workbook
+3. **Positions must add up**: x + w should not exceed parent width, y + h should not exceed parent
+   height
+4. **Keep UUIDs**: Don't change existing `<simple-id uuid="..."/>` unless creating new dashboards
+5. **Zone IDs**: Each zone needs a unique `id` attribute (use sequential integers)
+6. **Worksheet zones**: To reference a worksheet, use the `name` attribute directly on the zone
+   element (NOT a child `<zone-pane>` element)
+7. **Zone styling**: Worksheet zones should include `<zone-style>` with border and margin formatting
+8. **Validate after changes**: Use `tableau-apply-dashboard` which validates before sending
+
+## Critical Rules
+
+- **Worksheet must exist**: The worksheet name in `name="Sheet 1"` MUST match an existing worksheet
+  in the workbook
+- **No zone-pane element**: DO NOT use `<zone-pane>` - put the worksheet name directly in the zone's
+  `name` attribute
+- **Include zone-style**: Every worksheet zone should have a `<zone-style>` child with border/margin
+  formats
+- **⚠️ CRITICAL: Sync viewpoints**: For EVERY worksheet in zones, you MUST add a matching
+  `<viewpoint>` in the window element. This is separate from the dashboard element - it goes in
+  `<windows><window class="dashboard">`. Without this, Tableau will fail with "Internal Error".
+
+## Critical: Viewpoints
+
+**IMPORTANT**: When you add worksheets to a dashboard's zones, you MUST also add corresponding
+viewpoints to the dashboard's **window element** (NOT the dashboard element itself).
+
+The viewpoints go in:
+`<workbook><windows><window class="dashboard" name="DashboardName"><viewpoints>`
+
+For each worksheet referenced in zones (by `name` attribute), add:
+
+```xml
+<viewpoint name="WorksheetName">
+  <zoom type="entire-view"/>
+</viewpoint>
+```
+
+Example: If your dashboard has zones with `name="Sheet 1"` and `name="Sheet 2"`, the window needs:
+
+```xml
+<window class="dashboard" name="My Dashboard">
+  <viewpoints>
+    <viewpoint name="Sheet 1">
+      <zoom type="entire-view"/>
+    </viewpoint>
+    <viewpoint name="Sheet 2">
+      <zoom type="entire-view"/>
+    </viewpoint>
+  </viewpoints>
+  <active id="-1"/>
+  <simple-id uuid="{...}"/>
+</window>
+```
+
+**Without matching viewpoints, Tableau will reject the dashboard with an internal error.**
+
+## Workflow
+
+### ⚠️ CRITICAL: Application Order Matters!
+
+**The Problem:** `tableau-apply-workbook` replaces the **ENTIRE** workbook state. If you apply a
+dashboard, then apply a stale workbook XML, your dashboard changes will be **OVERWRITTEN**.
+
+### Recommended: Use `tableau-apply-dashboard-with-viewpoints`
+
+This tool handles both safely:
+
+1. Gets a fresh workbook (includes your dashboard changes)
+2. Adds viewpoints automatically
+3. Applies both in the correct order
+
+```typescript
+tableau-apply-dashboard-with-viewpoints({
+  dashboard_name: "My Dashboard",
+  dashboard_file: "path/to/dashboard.xml",
+  worksheet_names: ["Sheet 1", "Sheet 2"]
+})
+```
+
+### Manual Workflow (If Needed)
+
+If you must edit manually, follow this order:
+
+1. `tableau-get-dashboard` - Get current dashboard XML
+2. Edit dashboard zones XML
+3. `tableau-apply-dashboard` - Apply dashboard changes **FIRST**
+4. `tableau-get-workbook` - Get **FRESH** workbook (includes dashboard changes)
+5. Edit workbook to add viewpoints to the dashboard window
+6. `tableau-apply-workbook` - Apply window viewpoint changes
+
+**⚠️ WRONG ORDER (Will Overwrite Dashboard):**
+
+```typescript
+// ❌ WRONG - Stale workbook overwrites dashboard
+tableau - get - workbook(); // Gets workbook
+tableau - apply - dashboard(); // Applies dashboard
+tableau - apply - workbook(); // Overwrites dashboard with stale workbook!
+```
+
+**✅ CORRECT ORDER:**
+
+```typescript
+// ✅ CORRECT - Fresh workbook includes dashboard
+tableau - apply - dashboard(); // Apply dashboard first
+tableau - get - workbook(); // Get fresh workbook (includes dashboard)
+// Edit viewpoints
+tableau - apply - workbook(); // Apply fresh workbook with viewpoints
+```

+
+Start here. This map routes an authoring task to the right expertise module. It is a
+**navigation aid, not an expertise module** — read it to decide *where to go*, then
+read the specific module before authoring.
+
+How agents reach this knowledge:
+- **`search-knowledge`** — fuzzy ranking by concept/keyword. Best when you don't know
+  the slug. Returns `expertise://tableau/<slug>` hits; read the top one.
+- **This map** — when you want the deliberate general → specific path.
+- **`read-knowledge-resource`** (or MCP `resources/read`) — read a known slug.
+
+Slug = path under `data/knowledge/` with `.md` stripped. URI =
+`expertise://tableau/<slug>`.
+
+## The three domains
+
+| Domain | What it holds | Routing test |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| **`tactics/`** | Objective, factual "how Tableau works." XML you generate, node/attribute rules, confirmed-working patterns, version-stamped behavior. | Names a Tableau XML node/attribute or product-specific mechanic. |
+| **`strategy/`** | The technique for the *best* analytical outcome, fast: chart choice, design, storytelling, when to push back, how to disambiguate a request, what "best" looks like. | Would still be true for another BI tool. |
+| **`personalization/`** | What a user or org is most likely to **modify**: Tableau's suggested defaults, an org style guide, solution-routing choices. | A default or preference an org would override. |
+
+The routing test (one question): *Would this statement still be true for another BI
+tool?* Yes → `strategy/` or `personalization/`; if it names a Tableau XML
+node/attribute or a Tableau-specific mechanic → `tactics/`.
+
+Folders are a human/slug aid — agents navigate by `search-knowledge` + this map. Many
+topics have a **tactics file (the XML/how) and a strategy companion (the when/why)**
+that cross-link bidirectionally: land on either, hop to the other via its
+`**Tactics companion:**` / related-knowledge line.
+

+# Calculation Authoring Best Practices
+
+Guide for writing clean, maintainable Tableau calculated fields: multi-line formulas, formula comments, naming conventions, and common authoring mistakes.
+
+---
+
+## When to Use This Module
+
+Use this guide when:
+
+- **Writing a complex calculated field** with multiple branches or nested LODs
+- **Reviewing a customer's calculated fields** that are hard to read
+- **A calculated field shows a red error in the Data pane** even though the formula appears valid
+- **Explaining best practices for formula organization** to a customer building their own workbooks
+
+For workbook XML mechanics, see `expertise://tableau/tableau-tactics/data/calc-fields`.
+
+---
+
+## Multi-Line Formulas
+
+Break complex IF/ELSEIF chains and nested LODs across multiple lines. Tableau's formula editor supports multi-line entry; press Enter for a new line.
+
+Recommended format for IF/ELSEIF:
+
+```
+IF [R Score] >= 4 AND [F Score] >= 4 THEN
+    "Champions"
+ELSEIF [R Score] >= 4 AND [F Score] <= 2 THEN
+    "New Customers"
+ELSEIF [R Score] <= 2 AND [F Score] >= 3 THEN
+    "At Risk"
+ELSE
+    "Needs Attention"
+END
+```
+
+Avoid column-aligning `THEN` clauses with spaces. The formula editor toggles between the field's internal name and its display caption; these have different widths, so aligned spacing looks crooked in one view and aligned in another. Break-after-keyword is the stable format.
+
+---
+
+## Formula Comments
+
+Tableau supports `//` line comments in calculated fields. Use them to document **analytical intent**, not authoring mechanics.
+
+Good comments:
+
+```
+// Days since each customer's last closed-won opportunity.
+// Smaller value = more recently active customer.
+
+DATEDIFF('day', { FIXED [Account Name] : MAX([Close Date]) }, TODAY())
+```
+
+Bad comments:
+
+```
+// References the Recency LOD field by its internal name.
+// This field was created for RFM scoring on 2026-03-15.
+```
+
+The bad examples describe authoring history rather than the meaning of the formula. A future analyst reading the calc does not need to know how it was created; they need to understand what it represents.
+
+Leave a blank line between the comment block and the first line of the formula for visual separation. Comments survive every Save and help future maintainers understand complex segmentation logic without reverse-engineering the formulas.
+
+---
+
+## Naming Calculated Fields
+
+Use the caption or display name for the human-readable label and keep the formula focused. The name shown in the Data pane should be self-describing:
+
+| Instead of... | Use... |
+|---|---|
+| `Calc1`, `My Calc` | `Revenue per Order` |
+| `Test`, `Temp` | `Profit Margin (%)` |
+| `R`, `F`, `M` | `RFM: R Score (1-5)` |
+
+Prefix related fields to group them visually in the Data pane. All fields starting with `RFM:` sort together; all starting with `KPI:` sort together.
+
+When authoring workbook XML directly, still follow the internal-name rules in `expertise://tableau/tableau-tactics/data/calc-fields`: datasource-level calculation column `name` values use Tableau's internal `[Calculation_<digits>]` pattern, while the human-readable label belongs in `caption`.
+
+---
+
+## Red Error in the Data Pane
+
+A calculated field showing a red exclamation mark in the Data pane despite a valid formula is usually caused by one of these:
+
+1. **A referenced field does not exist in the datasource.**
+   - Check every `[Field Name]` in the formula against the actual fields in the Data pane.
+   - Field names are case-insensitive but must match the field name exactly, including spaces.
+   - If a field was renamed or deleted, formulas referencing it break silently.
+
+2. **A parameter is referenced by the wrong name.**
+   - Parameters must be referenced by their exact name as shown in the Data pane.
+   - If the parameter was renamed, update all formulas that reference it.
+
+3. **An aggregate function is used incorrectly.**
+   - You cannot mix aggregated and non-aggregated fields in the same formula without an LOD expression.
+   - Example: `SUM([Sales]) / [Quantity]` fails because `[Quantity]` is row-level but `SUM([Sales])` is aggregated. Fix: `SUM([Sales]) / SUM([Quantity])`.
+
+4. **A circular reference.**
+   - If Calc A references Calc B and Calc B references Calc A, both show errors.
+   - Identify the dependency chain and break the cycle.
+
+5. **A calc references a datasource field that was removed or the datasource was replaced.**
+   - Check Data menu -> Data Source and verify the datasource fields are still available.
+
+To diagnose, double-click the field to open the formula editor. Tableau underlines the specific term it cannot resolve. The error description at the bottom of the editor identifies the issue.
+
+---
+
+## Formula Best Practices
+
+- **Use `ZN()` to handle nulls returning 0.** `ZN([Sales])` is cleaner than `IFNULL([Sales], 0)` and is the idiomatic Tableau form.
+- **Use `DATEDIFF` and `DATEADD` for date arithmetic.** Explicit unit parameters such as `'day'` and `'month'` make the intent clear and handle edge cases correctly.
+- **Guard zero denominators in ratio sort keys.** For attainment, margin, and other ratio calcs used for sorting/ranking, use `IIF([Denominator]=0, NULL, [Numerator]/[Denominator])`; NULL sorts honestly, while `ZN()` would rank a no-quota rep as 0% and lie. A bare `[Numerator]/[Denominator]` sort key silently errors or drops rows when a zero-denominator row appears.
+- **Avoid deeply nesting IF inside IF.** More than 3 levels of nesting is hard to maintain. Flatten into sequential `ELSEIF` clauses or break into separate intermediate calculated fields.
+- **Use intermediate calculated fields** to give names to complex sub-expressions. `{ FIXED [Customer ID] : MAX([Order Date]) }` is better as a named field `[Last Order Date per Customer]` that other calcs reference, rather than inlining the LOD into every formula that needs it.
+- **Test edge cases:** nulls, zero denominators, and boundary values in ELSEIF chains.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Using aggregates and row-level fields together without LOD.** `SUM([Sales]) > [Target]` fails because `[Target]` is row-level. Fix: make `[Target]` a FIXED LOD or aggregate it: `SUM([Sales]) > SUM([Target])`.
+2. **Hard-coding threshold values in formulas.** A formula with `IF [Sales] > 10000 THEN "High"` becomes wrong when the threshold changes. Use a parameter instead: `IF [Sales] > [Sales Threshold] THEN "High"`.
+3. **Referencing a parameter before it has been created.** If a formula references `[My Parameter]` but the parameter does not exist yet, the field errors. Create the parameter first.
+4. **Using OR instead of ELSEIF for exclusive categories.** `IF [x] = 'A' OR [x] = 'B' THEN 1 END` returns null for other values. Use `ELSE 0 END` if a default is needed.
+5. **Forgetting that FIXED LOD ignores dimension filters.** A `{ FIXED [Customer] : SUM([Sales]) }` does not change when the user applies a Region filter. Use a context filter if the LOD should be scoped to the current filter selection.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+Use the sections above as the implementation reference for Tableau authoring. Apply the relevant pattern in the workbook or dashboard, then verify the result in Tableau for correctness, readability, and customer-safe behavior.

+# Calculated Fields, Parameters & Table Calculations
+
+Strategy guide for deciding how to model logic in Tableau calculations: when to reach for an LOD expression, a table calculation, or a parameter, and how the Order of Operations should drive those choices.
+
+---
+
+## When to Use This Module
+
+Use this guide when:
+
+- **Adding a calculated field** to a datasource, such as profit ratio, date difference, or string categorization
+- **Translating SQL expressions** to Tableau calculated fields during datasource refactoring
+- **Setting up a parameter** with a list or range of allowed values that a calculation references
+- **Configuring a table calculation** such as running total, rank, percent of total, or moving average
+- **Applying a Top N filter per partition** using the rank-on-rows pattern
+- **Debugging unexpected filter/calc interactions** with the Tableau Order of Operations
+
+For XML and authoring mechanics, see `expertise://tableau/tableau-tactics/data/calc-fields`. For SQL-specific translation mechanics, see `expertise://tableau/tableau-tactics/data/sql-translation`.
+
+---
+
+## LOD vs. Table Calc: The Core Decision
+
+LOD (Level of Detail) expressions and table calculations both compute at a granularity other than the view, but they answer different questions and live at different points in the Order of Operations. Picking the wrong one is the most common modeling mistake.
+
+| Tool | Computes on | Best when |
+|---|---|---|
+| `FIXED` LOD | Underlying rows, at a fixed grain you name | You need an entity-level value, such as per-customer total, that does not change as the view is re-sliced |
+| `INCLUDE` / `EXCLUDE` LOD | Underlying rows, relative to the view's grain | You want the view's grain plus or minus one dimension, and the result should react to dimension filters |
+| Table calc | Aggregated results visible in the view | The answer is inherently positional or relative, such as running totals, rank, percent-of-total, or period-over-period |
+
+Decision rule: if the answer should be stable regardless of what is on the shelves, reach for an LOD. If the answer is "relative to the other marks in this view" - rank, running sum, or percent of visible total - it is a table calc by nature.
+
+Check LOD-legal aggregates before defaulting to a table calc. The aggregate set usable inside an LOD is wider than many authors expect, including `PERCENTILE`, `MEDIAN`, `STDEV`, `VAR`, `CORR`, and `COVAR`. Using an LOD keeps the calc evaluable anywhere and removes the "must have the partitioning dimension on Detail" constraint that a table calc imposes.
+
+---
+
+## PERCENTILE-in-LOD vs. NTILE Table Calc
+
+For quintile or decile segmentation such as RFM, prefer a nested-LOD `PERCENTILE` cutoff over the `INDEX()/SIZE()` table-calc workaround. The LOD version becomes a row-level attribute that works in any view; the table-calc version only resolves when the partitioning dimension sits on Detail.
+
+Collapse each entity to one row with an inner `FIXED` before taking the percentile so high-transaction entities are not over-weighted.
+
+Caveat: SQL `NTILE(k)` forces exactly 1/k of rows per bucket by splitting ties. PERCENTILE cutoffs put tied values in the same bucket. That is usually better for segmentation because identical entities get identical treatment, but it is not exact NTILE parity.
+
+For concrete nested-LOD formulas, see `expertise://tableau/tableau-tactics/data/calc-fields`.
+
+---
+
+## Membership vs. Value: Set vs. RANK, Filter, or LOD
+
+The single most common wrong turn on top/bottom-N performer tasks is confusing **membership** with **value**. Before writing a RANK, LOD, or Top-N filter, ask what the output is: a value, or group membership?
+
+| You want... | Use | Why |
+|---|---|---|
+| A **displayed ordinal value** such as a rank number on the viz, Pareto, `RANK_UNIQUE` table-calc filter, or per-partition rank | **RANK / table calc** | The answer is positional and relative to marks in the view |
+| A **stable per-entity value** independent of the view | **LOD** | Computed on underlying rows at a fixed grain |
+| **Group membership** such as Top / Bottom / Everyone-Else to color rows, keep-and-roll-up the rest, or drive a click/parameter action | **Set** | Only a set tags membership while keeping all rows, can be a set-action target, and can re-rank live per period |
+
+The decisive test:
+
+- A Top-N filter **removes** the other rows. That is wrong when you must keep the middle, such as rolling it into an "Everyone Else" bar.
+- A positional-table-calc-as-membership calc, such as `IF RANK(...) <= [param] THEN "Top" ELSEIF ... ELSE "Everyone Else"`, is the wrong shape. It cannot be a set-action target, will not re-rank live in the same way, and often will not resolve as a dimension because table calcs run after the grouping is needed.
+- This is not specific to `RANK`. `INDEX() <= [param]`, `FIRST()`, and `LAST()` are the same wrong turn when they are used as membership labels.
+
+RANK, INDEX, filters, and LODs are all correct tools for values. They are the wrong tool only for membership.
+
+---
+
+## Parameters: When to Reach for One
+
+A parameter is the right tool when the user needs to drive the analysis with a value the data does not contain: a Top-N threshold, a what-if input, a date-range bound that controls densification, or a switch between measures.
+
+Prefer a parameter over a quick filter whenever the control must stay independent of the data. A filter can only choose from values present and can accidentally remove rows; a parameter can preserve all members while changing what a calculation counts.
+
+---
+
+## Tableau Order of Operations
+
+Know this when debugging why filters and calculations interact unexpectedly:
+
+1. Extract Filters
+2. Data Source Filters
+3. **Context Filters**
+4. Sets / Conditional Filters / Top N / **FIXED LOD**
+5. Dimension Filters
+6. INCLUDE/EXCLUDE LOD
+7. Measure Filters
+8. **Table Calculations**
+9. **Table Calc Filters**
+10. Trend/Reference Lines
+
+Key implications:
+
+- **Context filters** restrict data before FIXED LODs, so use them to scope LOD calculations.
+- **Table calc filters** run after all aggregation, which is ideal for Top N via `INDEX() <= N`.
+- Prefer **table calcs + context filters** over FIXED LODs for flexible analysis when the result should react to the visible view.
+
+---
+
+## Table Calculations: Choosing Scope
+
+Once a problem is genuinely positional, the strategic choice is what the calc partitions and addresses over. Get the Compute Using scope right and the calc is robust; get it wrong and it silently restarts on the wrong dimension.
+
+- **Use Specific Dimensions, not Table/Pane direction, in any view with more than one dimension.** Table Across/Down and Pane direction are guesses that break when a trellis or extra dimension is added.
+- **Match the addressing dimension to the analytical question.** A rank "within each month" partitions by month and addresses by the ranked entity. A running total "over time" addresses by the date.
+
+Common recipes such as bump charts, `WINDOW_*` KPI/sparkline tables, per-partition Top-N, and `INDEX()` data densification share this strategic point and differ only in mechanics. For workbook XML mechanics, see `expertise://tableau/tableau-tactics/data/calc-fields`.
+
+---
+
+## Data Densification: a Filtering-Strategy Decision
+
+When a crosstab or heatmap must show every dimension combination, including empties, the strategic trap is the filter type, not the calc. A standard or context filter physically removes members from the view, which destroys densification and skews any average whose denominator should include the zero-activity members.
+
+The fix is to keep all members present and control what gets counted with a parameter-driven `IF` inside the measure, paired with `ZN()` to turn nulls into zeros.
+
+| Filter type | Effect on dimensions | Safe for densification? |
+|---|---|---|
+| Standard dimension filter | Removes filtered values from view | No - breaks densification |
+| Context filter | Removes filtered values from view | No - breaks densification |
+| Parameter + `IF` in calc | All values remain; measure returns 0 for excluded rows | Yes |
+
+---
+
+## Per-Partition Top-N: a Shaping Decision
+
+To show Top-N per partition, such as top 10 sub-categories per month, put RANK on Rows and the ranked dimension on Label. Putting the dimension on Rows unions across all partitions and defeats the per-partition intent.
+
+The filter that keeps ranks 1-N belongs at the table-calc stage of the Order of Operations, for example `INDEX() <= [Top N]`.
+
+---
+
+## SQL Window/Aggregate Translation
+
+When porting SQL-derived logic, the LOD-vs-table-calc decision maps directly onto SQL constructs:
+
+- A `GROUP BY` aggregate is a `FIXED` LOD: stable at the named grain.
+- An `OVER (PARTITION BY ... ORDER BY ...)` window function is a table calc: positional within the view.
+- `NTILE(k)` maps to the PERCENTILE-LOD pattern when equal-count buckets matter.
+
+For the SQL-to-Tableau lookup table and equal-count vs. equal-width bucket caveat, see `expertise://tableau/tableau-tactics/data/sql-translation` and `expertise://tableau/analytics/sql-translation-strategy`.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Use context filters with FIXED LODs.** FIXED LOD calculations ignore regular dimension filters. Right-click the filter in the Filters shelf and choose Add to Context to scope the LOD.
+- **Choose LOD over table calc when possible.** LODs evaluate before dimension filters and do not require the partitioning dimension to be present in the view.
+- **Use `ZN()` to handle null measures in densified views.** Without `ZN`, densified empty cells return null and distort averages.
+- **Prefer PERCENTILE-LOD over NTILE table calcs** for quintile/decile segmentation because it is row-level, works anywhere in the view, and produces better semantics for entity-level analysis.
+- **Use Specific Dimensions for Compute Using in trellis views.** Table Down and Table Across can restart unexpectedly when multiple dimensions are present.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **FIXED LOD ignoring a dashboard filter.** FIXED LOD runs before dimension filters. Make the controlling filter a context filter so it scopes the LOD.
+2. **Table calc dimension not in the view.** Table calcs require their partitioning dimension to be present somewhere in the view: Rows, Columns, Color, Detail, or Path.
+3. **Using NTILE range-mapping for exact equal-count buckets.** Range-mapping creates equal-width buckets, not equal-count. For quintiles matching SQL NTILE semantics, use the PERCENTILE-LOD pattern.
+4. **Percent of Total on the wrong base.** When the underlying measure uses COUNTD, the table calc must aggregate by COUNTD. Using SUM as the base produces wrong totals.
+5. **INDEX() densification breaking when quick filters are added.** Quick filters remove dimension members from the view, defeating densification. Use parameter-based filtering instead.
+6. **INCLUDE/EXCLUDE vs. FIXED for filter scoping.** INCLUDE and EXCLUDE run after dimension filters. FIXED runs before dimension filters. Using INCLUDE where FIXED is needed produces results that change unexpectedly as filters are applied.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+This is a decision workflow, not an XML recipe:
+
+1. **State the question precisely.** Is the answer entity-stable, such as per-customer or per-account, or relative-to-the-view, such as rank, running total, or percent of visible total?
+2. **Pick the tool from the question.** Entity-stable -> LOD. Relative or positional -> table calc. View-grain-relative -> INCLUDE/EXCLUDE.
+3. **Walk the Order of Operations** to confirm filters land where expected, especially that anything meant to scope a FIXED LOD is a context filter and that Top-N filtering happens at the table-calc stage.
+4. **Decide the parameter vs. filter question** for any user-driven input or densification need. Parameter keeps members present; filter removes them.
+5. **Hand off to mechanics.** Once the modeling choice is settled, build it using `expertise://tableau/tableau-tactics/data/calc-fields`, then verify in Tableau that totals, ranks, and densified denominators behave as intended.

+# Tableau Field & Mark Type Reference
+
+Quick-reference tables for Tableau field roles, data types, mark types, dashboard zone types, and filter classes.
+
+---
+
+## When to Use This Module
+
+Use this guide when:
+
+- **A customer asks why a field behaves differently than expected** and you need to check role, type, or datatype
+- **Choosing a mark type** for a chart type discussion
+- **Explaining dimensions vs. measures** or discrete vs. continuous fields
+- **Troubleshooting filter dialog options** that differ from what a customer expects
+
+For exact workbook XML enum values, see `expertise://tableau/tableau-tactics/tree/enums`.
+
+---
+
+## Field Roles
+
+| Role | Behavior | Default pill color |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Dimension** | Slice and group data; categorical | Blue |
+| **Measure** | Aggregate values; numeric | Green |
+
+A field's role determines the default aggregation behavior and which shelf options are available. Right-click any field in the Data pane and choose Change to Dimension or Change to Measure to override.
+
+---
+
+## Field Types (Discrete vs. Continuous)
+
+| Type | Behavior | Pill color |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Discrete** (nominal / ordinal) | Creates headers; values listed | Blue |
+| **Continuous** (quantitative) | Creates axes; values on a scale | Green |
+
+The type is independent of the role. You can have a discrete measure, such as `RANK()` on Rows as a discrete blue pill, or a continuous dimension, such as a date on Columns as a continuous green axis.
+
+Right-click a pill on a shelf and choose Convert to Discrete or Convert to Continuous.
+
+---
+
+## Data Types
+
+| Datatype | What it holds | Examples |
+|---|---|---|
+| `string` | Text | "West", "Customer A" |
+| `integer` | Whole numbers | 42, 1000 |
+| `real` | Decimal numbers | 3.14, 1234.56 |
+| `boolean` | True/False | Is Profitable: True |
+| `date` | Date only | 2024-01-15 |
+| `datetime` | Date + time | 2024-01-15 09:30:00 |
+
+Tableau infers the data type from the source. You can change it in the Data pane by right-clicking the field and choosing Change Data Type.
+
+---
+
+## Mark Types
+
+| Mark type | Typical chart |
+|---|---|
+| **Automatic** | Tableau chooses based on what is on the shelves |
+| **Bar** | Categorical comparisons |
+| **Line** | Trends over time |
+| **Area** | Stacked/filled time series |
+| **Circle** | Scatter plots, dot plots |
+| **Square** | Filled square marks |
+| **Shape** | Shape-encoded categories |
+| **Text** | Text tables, BAN numbers |
+| **Pie** | Part-to-whole (use sparingly) |
+| **Gantt Bar** | Timeline / project charts |
+| **Polygon** | Custom polygon outlines |
+
+Change the mark type from the dropdown at the top of the Marks card.
+
+Tableau's Automatic selection is correct for many standard charts: Bar when comparing categories, Line when dates are on Columns, and Circle for scatter. Override it manually when you need a specific type that Automatic would not choose, such as forcing Line when Tableau auto-selects Bar for discrete dates or using Gantt Bar for timeline work.
+
+---
+
+## Filter Classes
+
+| Filter class | When it appears |
+|---|---|
+| **Categorical** | Dimension filter: check boxes or dropdown to include/exclude members |
+| **Quantitative (range)** | Measure filter or continuous date filter: min/max slider |
+| **Relative date** | Date dimension filter: "last N days/weeks/months" |
+| **Top N** | Dimension filter -> Top tab: limit to top/bottom N by a measure |
+
+The filter class determines the dialog presented when you drag a field to the Filters shelf. Dates offer a special dialog with multiple filter types to choose from.
+
+---
+
+## Dashboard Zone Types
+
+| Zone type | What it is |
+|---|---|
+| **Visual** | A worksheet (sheet view) |
+| **Text** | A static text object |
+| **Image** | A static image/logo |
+| **Filter** | A filter control |
+| **Parameter control** | A parameter control widget |
+| **Blank** | Empty spacer zone |
+| **Web page** | Embedded URL content |
+| **Layout container** | Horizontal or vertical grouping container |
+
+In Tableau Desktop's dashboard canvas, these correspond to the object types in the Objects panel at the bottom of the dashboard layout panel.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Use the guidance above as the starting point for Tableau dashboard and visualization authoring decisions.
+- Validate the recommendation against the specific workbook, data, and customer goal before applying it.
+- Prefer supported Tableau authoring patterns over one-off workarounds.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Treating this guidance as generic enablement rather than Tableau authoring guidance.**
+2. **Applying the pattern without checking whether it fits the dashboard, visualization, or workbook context.**
+3. **Skipping validation in Tableau after making authoring changes.**
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+Use the tables above as the conceptual reference when reasoning about field behavior, choosing a mark type, or explaining a filter dialog. They map each role, type, datatype, mark, and zone to its meaning and visible effect in Tableau Desktop.
+
+For the exact XSD enum values these correspond to in workbook XML, such as mark-type tokens, zone-type strings, filter classes, and column-instance suffixes, see `expertise://tableau/tableau-tactics/tree/enums`.

+# SQL to Tableau Calculation Translation
+
+Strategy guide for deciding how a piece of SQL should be re-expressed in Tableau: the FIXED-LOD-vs-table-calc judgment, the equal-count-vs-equal-width bucketing tradeoff, and when to refactor SQL out of the datasource.
+
+---
+
+## When to Use This Module
+
+Use this guide when:
+
+- **Refactoring a custom SQL datasource** so each SQL computed column becomes a Tableau calculated field
+- **A customer asks "how do I express this SQL in Tableau?"**
+- **Porting windowed ranking, date arithmetic, or CASE logic** from SQL into a Tableau workbook
+- **Explaining the FIXED LOD vs. table calc decision** to a customer familiar with SQL window functions
+
+For line-by-line SQL-to-Tableau lookup tables and XML formula escaping rules, see `expertise://tableau/tableau-tactics/data/sql-translation`.
+
+---
+
+## The Two Questions That Decide Every Translation
+
+Before looking up a single function, the SQL construct itself tells you which Tableau primitive to use. Almost every translation reduces to two questions.
+
+1. **Does the result change as the viz is re-sliced?** A SQL `GROUP BY` aggregate is stable at its grain. It should become a `FIXED` LOD, evaluated at the grain you name regardless of what is on the shelves. This mirrors `GROUP BY` semantics: the value is attached at the entity level and does not drift as the view is filtered or dimensioned.
+2. **Is the result inherently relative to other rows?** A SQL window function, such as `OVER (PARTITION BY ... ORDER BY ...)`, rank, running total, lag, or lead, is positional and should become a table calculation. Table calcs run on the aggregated data visible in the view, so the answer depends on the shelves. That is correct for windowed analysis but wrong for anything that should be partition-agnostic.
+
+Scalar SQL such as casts, string concatenation, date math, and `CASE` is the easy case: it maps one-to-one to a scalar Tableau function with no grain implications.
+
+Practical consequence: when in doubt between a `FIXED` LOD and a table calc, prefer the LOD for anything that must stay stable, because a table calc silently breaks when the view layout changes.
+
+---
+
+## NTILE: Equal-Count vs. Equal-Width
+
+SQL `NTILE(k)` has no direct Tableau equivalent, and the choice of approximation is a semantic decision, not a mechanical one:
+
+- **Range-mapping** such as `INT(1 + 4 * (value-min)/range)` produces equal-width buckets. It is simple but skews badly when the distribution is lopsided; a few outliers can leave whole buckets empty.
+- **LOD `PERCENTILE` cutoffs** produce true equal-count-ish distribution cutoffs that better match SQL `NTILE` semantics and are the right default for quintile/decile segmentation such as RFM.
+
+Pick equal-count with PERCENTILE unless the customer specifically wants fixed-width bands. Either way, compute the per-entity value first with an inner `FIXED` before bucketing so high-transaction entities are not over-weighted.
+
+For actual range-mapping and PERCENTILE formulas, see `expertise://tableau/tableau-tactics/data/calc-fields` and `expertise://tableau/tableau-tactics/data/sql-translation`.
+
+---
+
+## Nested LODs: Evaluation Order as a Design Tool
+
+Tableau evaluates LODs inside-out, and that ordering makes entity-then-distribution scoring possible. An inner per-entity `FIXED` collapses each customer or account to one value, and an outer table-scoped `FIXED` with no dimension then takes the global aggregate over those entity values.
+
+Recognizing this two-stage shape is the key strategic insight for translating any aggregate-of-an-aggregate SQL, such as average of per-customer totals or percentile of per-account revenue.
+
+---
+
+## Translation Decision Rules
+
+When you have a SQL expression to translate, apply these rules in order:
+
+1. **`GROUP BY` aggregation** -> FIXED LOD with the GROUP BY dimension(s)
+2. **`OVER (PARTITION BY ... ORDER BY ...)` window function** -> table calc with Compute Using set to the partition dimension
+3. **Scalar expression** such as cast, string concat, date math, or CASE -> equivalent scalar function
+4. **`NTILE(k)` exact equal-count buckets** -> LOD PERCENTILE cutoff pattern
+5. **`NTILE(k)` approximate equal-width buckets** -> range-mapping formula
+6. **`LAG`/`LEAD`** -> `LOOKUP()` table calc, with Compute Using set to the ordering field
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Default to FIXED LOD over table calc for GROUP BY translations.** FIXED matches GROUP BY semantics exactly: result depends only on the FIXED dimensions, not on the current view layout.
+- **Use `ZN()` for `COALESCE(x, 0)`.** It is idiomatic and the Tableau query optimizer recognizes it.
+- **Use `DATEDIFF` and `DATEADD` for date math.** Explicit unit parameters such as `'day'` and `'month'` handle edge cases correctly.
+- **Break complex nested LODs into named intermediate fields.** A `{ FIXED [Customer] : MAX([Order Date]) }` is clearer as `[Last Order Date per Customer]` referenced by downstream calculations.
+- **Set Compute Using explicitly for all table calc translations.** The default Compute Using is often wrong; always verify the partitioning.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Using NTILE range-mapping and assuming equal-count buckets.** Range-mapping yields equal-width. Use the LOD PERCENTILE pattern for true equal-count segmentation behavior.
+2. **Translating a `PARTITION BY` window function to a FIXED LOD when table calc semantics are needed.** `SUM(x) OVER (PARTITION BY y)` is a running window and should be a table calc, not a FIXED LOD.
+3. **Forgetting Compute Using for LAG/LEAD.** `LOOKUP(SUM([X]), -1)` without setting Compute Using lags along the wrong dimension, usually table-down instead of the date dimension.
+4. **Using caption names in formulas instead of the actual field names.** Field names in Tableau are what appears in the Data pane. If a field was renamed in the Data pane, use the renamed version; for workbook XML internals, follow the naming rules in `expertise://tableau/tableau-tactics/data/calc-fields`.
+5. **Forgetting to guard divide-by-zero in range-mapping.** `NULLIF(denominator, 0)` prevents errors when all values are identical and the range is 0.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+This is a classification workflow, not a transcription exercise:
+
+1. **Classify the SQL construct** using the two questions above: stable aggregate (`GROUP BY`), positional window (`OVER`), or plain scalar.
+2. **Choose the Tableau primitive from that class** before worrying about exact syntax: `FIXED` LOD, table calc, or scalar function.
+3. **Resolve the semantic forks** such as equal-count vs. equal-width for `NTILE`, and entity grain vs. transaction grain for any aggregate-of-aggregate.
+4. **Look up the exact function and Compute Using** in `expertise://tableau/tableau-tactics/data/sql-translation`, naming intermediate LODs for clarity.
+5. **Validate against the source.** Build a side-by-side comparison so the translated calc's totals and breakdowns match the original SQL before relying on it.

+# Choosing a Custom Viz Solution
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau users (and SEs assisting them) who want a visual or interaction Tableau does not produce out of the box
+- Authoring outcome improved: Solution routing — picks the right Tableau surface (native viz, an existing Tableau Exchange extension, a dashboard web page object, or a purpose-built viz extension) BEFORE any code is written, avoiding dead-ends and wasted effort
+- In-scope reason: Directly improves how the agent steers a user from "I want X" to a viable, supportable Tableau implementation
+- Out-of-scope risk: Not a licensing/procurement guide — Exchange extensions can require a license for Tableau Cloud/Server; surface that as a user decision, do not advise on price
+- Tags: viz extension, dashboard extension, tableau exchange, web page object, custom viz, 3D, globe, solution selection, build vs buy, accelerators, webgl, native first
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "can Tableau do 3D", "how to add a spinning globe", "custom visualization not working", "I need a chart type Tableau doesn't have", "webgl rendering blank", "build a custom extension vs use exchange", "animated or interactive viz", "network graph in Tableau", "flow diagram custom chart", "tableau native first or extension"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when a user asks for a visualization or interaction that Tableau does not offer natively — a 3D or animated chart, a spinning globe, a network/flow graph, a custom shape, an embedded web app — or asks "can Tableau do X?" for something non-standard. The goal is to route the request to the cheapest, most supportable surface that actually works, instead of immediately hand-coding something.
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Tableau users asking for a "wow"/custom visual the standard chart types do not cover
+- SEs scoping whether a customer ask is native, an existing extension, or a build
+- Any moment the agent is tempted to write custom HTML/JS before checking simpler options
+
+## The Solution Ladder
+
+Walk these in order and stop at the first rung that satisfies the goal.
+
+1. **Native first.** Can a native Tableau viz, map, mark type, or calculation do it (or 80–90% of it)? Symbol/filled maps, dual-axis, custom shapes, table calcs, parameters, and density marks cover a lot of "I didn't know Tableau could do that." This is the cheapest and most supportable option, with no external dependency.
+2. **Search the Tableau Exchange for an existing solution.** For genuinely novel viz, a *maintained* Viz Extension or Accelerator very likely already exists. Prefer it: it is trusted, hosted, maintained, and supported, and there is no code to own. Search before building.
+3. **Embedding existing web content?** Use a dashboard **Web Page object** (a `web` zone with the URL in `param`). Good for plain HTML, an existing internal web app, or dashboard-of-dashboards. Caveat below.
+4. **Build a custom Viz Extension** only when none of the above fit — you need worksheet-data binding plus custom rendering, nothing on the Exchange matches, or you need full control / offline. See the companion entry on building viz extensions.
+
+### The WebGL portability factor (affects rungs 3 and 4)
+
+Tableau's embedded **web page view** and the **viz-extension sandbox** cannot create a WebGL context on builds where "Enable Accelerated Graphics" is unsupported (common on VDI/VM and some Desktop builds). WebGL libraries (three.js, globe.gl) render **blank** there. Any custom 3D/"globe" visual should therefore plan to render in **2D (Canvas/SVG, e.g. d3-geo)**, which always works. Factor this into the choice between an existing extension (check how it renders) and a build.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Lead with the recommendation, not the code.** When a user describes a custom visual, your first move is to name the right surface ("This is a great fit for a viz extension — and there may already be one on the Exchange") rather than silently producing HTML.
+- **Always check native capability first.** Confirm Tableau cannot do it natively before reaching for anything custom. A surprising share of "custom" asks are a map, a dual-axis, or a parameter away.
+- **Search the Exchange before building.** Treat "does a maintained extension already do this?" as a required step. Name the candidate and let the user choose.
+- **Disambiguate the surfaces.** Be explicit about *viz extension* (renders the marks, bound to worksheet encodings) vs *dashboard extension* (an app in a dashboard zone) vs *web page object* (just loads a URL). Picking the wrong one wastes a cycle.
+- **Raise the WebGL caveat early** when the ask is 3D — it changes both "which existing extension" and "how to build."
+- **Factor in automation.** A viz extension can be installed and data-bound programmatically via the authoring API (`apply-workbook`) — the only human step for a never-trusted local extension is a one-time trust approval. When the goal is an automated or agent-driven build, this can tip the choice toward a viz extension over a hand-wired UI flow.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Say no when a user wants you to hand-build and maintain a custom extension for something a trusted, maintained Exchange extension already does well.
+
+Recommended wording:
+
+> "We can absolutely build this, but there's already a maintained extension on the Tableau Exchange that does exactly this — using it means no code for you to host, debug, or keep working across Tableau upgrades. Want to try that first, and only build custom if it doesn't fit?"
+
+Offer this instead:
+
+- Point to the specific Exchange extension and note any Cloud/Server licensing as a user decision
+- Reserve a custom build for cases with no good Exchange match, a hard offline requirement, or a need for full control
+
+Also say no (set expectations) when a user wants a 3D/WebGL visual delivered through a **Web Page object** — on no-GPU builds it will render blank. Redirect to an existing 2D-based extension or a custom viz extension that renders in 2D.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Reinventing the wheel.** Jumping straight to custom HTML/JS without checking native capability or the Exchange. The office-globe build burned a full cycle on a custom web-zone globe when a maintained 3D-globe viz extension (Globe Path) already existed.
+2. **Recommending a Web Page object for WebGL/3D content.** The embedded web view often has no WebGL context, so a three.js/globe.gl page loads but shows nothing. The page fetches fine (visible in server logs) yet the canvas stays blank.
+3. **Treating a one-off custom extension as "free."** Ignoring the hosting, debugging, and upgrade-maintenance burden of owned code versus a maintained Exchange extension.
+4. **Confusing the surfaces.** Recommending a "dashboard extension" when the user needs a worksheet-bound *viz extension*, or vice versa — each has a different data model and lifecycle.
+5. **Skipping the native check.** Building or sourcing something custom for an ask that a native map, dual-axis, or parameter already covers.
+
+## Implementation
+
+Routing checklist the agent should run on a custom-viz ask:
+
+1. Restate the goal in one line and ask what data drives it.
+2. **Native?** Name the closest native approach; if it covers the goal, do that and stop.
+3. **Existing extension?** Search the Tableau Exchange; if a maintained Viz Extension/Accelerator matches, recommend it, name it, and note Cloud/Server licensing as a user decision.
+4. **Embed only?** If the user just needs to surface an existing web page, use a dashboard Web Page object — unless it relies on WebGL, in which case warn it may render blank.
+5. **Build?** Only if 2–4 fail. Hand off to the viz-extension build guidance, and plan for 2D (not WebGL) rendering.
+
+Worked example (office locations on a globe):
+
+- "Map the offices" → **native symbol map** answered it (lat/long with City on Detail). No custom anything needed.
+- "Make it a spinning 3D globe" → an existing maintained Viz Extension (**Globe Path**) already does animated arcs on a spinning globe — the right first answer.
+- A **custom local viz extension** was the fallback for full control — and it had to render the globe in **2D (d3-geo), not WebGL**, because the sandbox could not create a WebGL context.
+

+# Discovery-First Authoring: Inventory and Align Before You Build
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau users building a new viz with the agent (and SEs assisting them)
+- Authoring outcome improved: Before building a non-trivial viz, the agent inventories what the workbook and data actually contain, restates the user's goal, flags any mismatch between the request and the data reality, and chooses the right authoring surface - instead of blindly building or fabricating fields.
+- In-scope reason: Directly improves how the agent turns an ambiguous "build me a viz" into a viable, correct Tableau viz grounded in the real workbook.
+- Out-of-scope risk: Not a project-scoping or requirements-gathering framework, and not a dashboard/whole-workbook assembly flow - this is scoped to a single non-trivial build-a-viz turn.
+- Tags: discovery, alignment, inventory, build a viz, clarify, mismatch, surface selection, available fields, data reality, blind build, fabricated field
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "build me a chart of sales", "make a viz of profit margin", "plot sales by region", "I want a graph showing revenue over time", "add a chart for this data", "what's in this workbook before you build"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance at the START of any non-trivial build-a-viz request - especially when the request is ambiguous, names a field or metric that may not exist, or could be satisfied several different ways. The goal is to ground the build in the workbook's real state before applying anything.
+
+This applies to:
+
+- A user asking for a chart/graph/viz without specifying exact fields or chart type
+- A request that names a measure or dimension that might not be in the workbook (e.g., "profit margin", "channel", "cohort")
+- Any moment the agent is about to call an apply tool without having confirmed the workbook actually contains the referenced fields
+
+Skip it for trivial single-step edits (for example "change this bar to a line", "rename this sheet", "make the title bigger") or when the user explicitly says "just do X". Discovery is a front-loaded alignment step, not a tax on every keystroke.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Inventory cheap-first, with a budget.** Prefer the lightweight inventory calls before anything heavy: `list-available-fields`, then worksheet-list readback, then dashboard-list readback. Only reach for `get-workbook-xml` (mode=file) or `get-workbook-xml` when you actually need exact XML or encodings. Budget normally 2-4 discovery calls before you align; do not loop.
+2. **Restate the goal in one line.** Reflect back what the user is asking for so a mismatch surfaces immediately ("You want a monthly trend of profit margin by region.").
+3. **Name what exists.** Briefly state the relevant fields, sheets, and data sources you found, so the user can see you are building on their real workbook.
+4. **Flag mismatches explicitly.** Call out a missing field, a high-cardinality dimension, the wrong grain, or an aggregation problem before building - this is the single highest-value move of the whole step.
+5. **Choose the right authoring surface.** Decide native chart vs. the custom-viz ladder before building; route to chart-selection guidance for chart choice and to the custom-viz solution guidance when the ask is non-standard.
+6. **Ask at most 1-2 clarifying questions, only when a mismatch blocks safe building.** Otherwise proceed with the best-supported interpretation and state what you assumed. Do not interrogate the user for cosmetic details you can default safely.
+7. **Never fabricate a field.** If a requested field does not exist, say so and offer the closest real field or a calculated field to create (with confirmation). Inventing a column in the applied XML produces a broken or misleading viz.
+8. **Build, then verify.** Hand off to the existing build recipes and read back to confirm the viz landed.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Say no (or pause) when the request references data that does not exist, or when building it as asked would fabricate fields or produce a misleading viz.
+
+Recommended wording:
+
+> "I don't see a `Profit Margin` field in this workbook - it has Sales, Profit, Category, Region, and Order Date. I can build a margin as a calculated field (Profit / Sales), or chart Profit directly. Which would you like before I build it?"
+
+Offer this instead:
+
+- The closest real field, or a calculated field to create (with confirmation)
+- A chart type or authoring surface better suited to the data that actually exists
+- A scoped alternative when the literal request would be unusable (e.g., high-cardinality)
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Blind build.** Applying a viz without first checking what the workbook contains - the most common cause of wrong-field, wrong-grain, or duplicate output.
+2. **Fabricating a non-existent field.** Referencing a column the user named but that is not in the data, producing a broken or empty apply instead of flagging it.
+3. **Ignoring existing state.** Not checking current sheets/data sources, then duplicating or conflicting with what is already there.
+4. **Over-discovery.** Pulling a full `get-workbook-xml` plus many calls for a trivial one-step edit - discovery should be skipped for those.
+5. **Over-interviewing.** Asking many clarifying questions instead of proceeding with one clear stated assumption. Cap clarifying questions at 1-2.
+6. **Wrong surface.** Reaching for a custom build when a native chart fits, or vice versa, because the surface decision was skipped.
+
+## Implementation
+
+The discovery-first preamble for a non-trivial build-a-viz request:
+
+1. **Bootstrap:** if `list-instances` is absent from the tool list, the session is pinned to the launching Desktop; skip discovery because session-scoped tools already target it. Otherwise, call `list-instances` -> capture `_session`.
+2. **Inventory cheap-first (budget 2-4 calls):** `list-available-fields` -> worksheet-list readback -> dashboard-list readback. Use `get-workbook-xml` (mode=file) or `get-workbook-xml` only if you need exact XML/encodings.
+3. **Align:** restate the goal in one line; name the available fields/sheets; flag any mismatch (missing field, high cardinality, wrong grain); choose the authoring surface.
+4. **Clarify (bounded):** ask at most 1-2 `ask-user` questions, and only when a mismatch blocks safe building; otherwise proceed and state your assumptions.
+5. **Build:** hand off to the existing viz recipes (`build-and-apply-worksheet`, or `batch-create-and-cache-sheets`).
+6. **Verify:** read back and confirm the proposed worksheet landed; loop back to align on gaps; cap recovery at 3 attempts.
+
+Telemetry: if you start an episode for the discovery turn, call `tableau-begin-episode` once and `tableau-end-episode` only for the episode you started. Otherwise keep the discovery summary and chosen surface in your normal response; do not invent episode tools.

+# Frame the Question and Check the Data Before Building
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: prompt-driven dashboard/viz builders (Tableau Next, Pulse,
+  Concierge, AI authoring) and new authors at the very start of a build, before any
+  prompt is issued or worksheet is created.
+- Authoring outcome improved: forces the business question, the data's structure, and
+  the builder's intent to be established first, so the resulting dashboard actually
+  answers a decision instead of producing a plausible-looking viz that answers nothing
+  — and so unexpected results get validated rather than dismissed.
+- In-scope reason: directly improves how a prompt-driven build turns an eager "make me
+  a dashboard" into a viz that answers a real decision at the data's true grain.
+- Out-of-scope risk: not a project-scoping, requirements-gathering, or account-strategy
+  framework — scoped to the kickoff of a single authoring session.
+- Tags: framing, business question, grain, data fit, metric definition, defaults,
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how do I frame the question before building", "what should I ask before making a dashboard", "help me scope this dashboard", "what question should this dashboard answer", "is a dashboard the right answer", "check the data before building", "define the metric before building", "understand the grain first"
+  validation, unexpected results, dashboard vs data product, when to say no, vibe
+  coding, prompt-driven authoring
+- Customer-identifying details removed: yes.
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this at the kickoff of any prompt-driven authoring session — especially with a
+new user who is eager to start typing prompts. Three foundational things must be
+established *before* building: understand the data, frame the question the dashboard
+must answer, and know what kind of answer a dashboard can credibly give.
+
+## Understand the Data Before You Build
+
+Most business users won't know this about their data, but it's good information to
+have if you can find it. Once you understand a little about the structure of the data,
+you can better judge whether it's useful for the dashboard you want to build.
+
+- **Where did the data come from?**
+- **Who collected it?**
+- **What time period does it cover?**
+- **What does one row represent?** This is the single most important question. In
+  Superstore, one row represents one product line item of a single order, and a single
+  order can have multiple line items. If a customer orders multiples of one product,
+  that's still one row, with a quantity field holding the number ordered. Get the grain
+  wrong and every aggregation downstream is wrong.
+- **What are the key measures and dimensions?**
+- **What's in the data that provides context but isn't used for analysis all the time?**
+
+### Fit: is this the right data for this question?
+
+- **Who uses this data in real life?**
+- **What kinds of questions do people use it to answer?** A Finance data set probably
+  won't be very useful to an HR user, even if some columns overlap with what an HR user
+  needs. Overlapping fields are not the same as fit.
+
+## Understand the Request Before You Build
+
+New users — to Tableau and to their own data — describe what they want to *see*,
+not what they need to *know*. In a prompt-driven (vibe-coded) build, treating the
+visual request as a complete specification is the fastest way to produce output that
+is technically correct and analytically thin. Work through the request itself before
+choosing how to represent it.
+
+- **The visual request is not the spec.** "Show me sales by region" is a visual
+  request; the underlying need is usually a decision — "which regions are
+  underperforming." Surface the decision behind the request first, then choose the
+  representation that serves it.
+- **Plain-language field names rarely map one-to-one.** Users name fields in plain
+  language that may or may not match the dataset. "Revenue," "Sales," and "Total"
+  might be the same field — or three different ones. Acting on the plain-language
+  description without confirming the actual field name is one of the most reliable
+  ways to produce a viz that looks right but calculates wrong.
+- **Establish grain before any aggregation — they won't raise it.** Most users don't
+  know what grain means and won't think to mention it, but grain decides whether an
+  aggregation is correct (see *Understand the Data* above). A Superstore-style source
+  where one row is an order line item produces inflated totals the moment it's treated
+  as one row per order.
+- **Pin down the metric definition.** The same metric name means different things
+  across datasets, departments, and business contexts. "Revenue recognized" and
+  "revenue booked" sound alike and calculate very differently. When a user names a
+  metric without saying how to calculate it, assume they don't know the distinction
+  exists — not that they want the default interpretation.
+- **Make the defaults visible.** Every visualization carries invisible decisions —
+  time period, filter scope, aggregation method, sort order. A user new to Tableau
+  won't know these are being made on their behalf, and won't know to question them
+  when the output looks plausible. State the defaults as part of explaining the
+  output, so a non-technical user can actually validate what they're looking at.
+- **Read iteration symptoms back to a cause.** Users new to prompt-driven building
+  iterate by describing what looks wrong *visually* rather than what's wrong
+  *analytically*. "The numbers seem too high" is a symptom; the cause is usually
+  grain, aggregation, filter scope, or metric definition. Diagnose it in the data
+  layer rather than just nudging the visual.
+- **Plausible is not correct.** A visualization that looks plausible is not the same
+  as one that is correct, and for a user who doesn't know the data well, plausible
+  wrong output is more dangerous than obviously wrong output — because it gets used.
+  After generating a viz, explain what it shows, how the key numbers were calculated,
+  and what was assumed, so the user has something concrete to validate against.
+
+## What Dashboards Are Good At
+
+Dashboards are great at answering specific pattern-based question types:
+
+- **Magnitude** — how much, how many
+- **Comparisons** — across categories, regions, products
+- **Change over time**
+- **Distribution** — highs, lows, outliers
+
+To a lesser extent, dashboards can help with deeper pattern-based questions, but it
+usually takes an analyst or an agent to pull all the nuance out of the result:
+
+- **Correlation**
+- **Driver analysis**
+
+Match the business question to one of these shapes. If the question doesn't map to a
+pattern a dashboard answers well, that's a signal to reframe it or route it to an
+analyst/agent.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Establish the grain first ("one row = one ___") and verify the needed
+  dimensions/measures exist at that grain. Where time matters, confirm a true
+  date-typed column and the right calendar (fiscal vs. calendar are very different).
+- Make the user state the business question in one plain sentence, then map it to the
+  specific fields that will answer it. Surface missing or derived fields now.
+- Be curious, and expect that some visualizations won't show what you predicted —
+  that's the *point* of a dashboard. It exists to surface insight about the data, not
+  to confirm what you already believe.
+- When you see results you don't expect, work to validate them rather than assuming the
+  viz is wrong. Sometimes an unexpected number is the right answer to a slightly
+  different question than the one being asked.
+- Decide up front whether you're building a point-in-time **dashboard** or a durable
+  **data product**, and build accordingly (see below).
+
+### Validating unexpected results
+
+When a number looks off, work through the structural causes before concluding the viz
+is broken:
+
+- **Filters:** Is a filter distorting the scope from what you expect?
+- **Data quality:** Are nulls or duplicate values skewing the result?
+- **Time period:** Does it match what you need? Calendar and fiscal calendars differ.
+- **Right fields:** For sales, revenue *recognized* vs. *booked* vs. *billed* can show
+  very different results even though they sound alike.
+- **Aggregation:** `SUM()` and `COUNT()` on the same field usually produce different
+  results — is the aggregation right?
+- **Right data set:** Are you even using the correct source?
+- **Reframe the question:** What does the viz show if you ask it differently? In
+  Superstore, total *sales by customer* makes Sean Miller look far larger than others;
+  if you actually need *quantity* rather than *sales amount*, that's a different
+  question. Reframing also helps check for outliers.
+
+When all the structural elements seem right but it still looks off, validate outside
+the dashboard if you can:
+
+- Check with an SME familiar with the data.
+- Compare against existing reports or records.
+- Sanity-check direction: is the number directionally plausible given what's known
+  about the business?
+
+## Dashboard vs. Data Product
+
+Consider the intent of the final artifact — this helps you build a *data product*
+instead of a *dashboard* when that's what's actually needed.
+
+A **dashboard** is a collection of visualizations answering point-in-time questions,
+often the *builder's* questions rather than a broad audience's. Think of a dozen
+versions of a revenue dashboard built by different teams off largely the same data.
+
+A **data product** has more intent: it's built to answer a group of questions
+successfully over time, is maintained to stay relevant, and can withstand rigorous
+scrutiny across several metrics. Signals you're building (or should build) a data
+product:
+
+- Does it use governed, certified metrics, or calculations embedded in the dashboard?
+- Is the scope well defined — built for specific roles/classes of users asking specific
+  groups of questions (a scope that can and should evolve with business needs)?
+- Is someone accountable for long-term accuracy, freshness, and for making sure user
+  questions are actually answered?
+- Is the data trustworthy enough that users can act without re-validating elsewhere?
+- Is it easily found by users?
+- Does it include documented lineage?
+
+## When to Say No
+
+- If the user can't state the business question in one sentence, don't build yet —
+  pause and pin down the decision first.
+- If the question doesn't map to a shape a dashboard answers well (magnitude,
+  comparison, change over time, distribution), reframe it or route the deeper
+  correlation/driver work to an analyst or agent.
+- If the requested dashboard requires a grain or a measure the data does not contain,
+  stop and say so before building. Don't let a prompt-driven tool generate a
+  confident-looking answer the data can't actually support.
+- If time is central but no true date-typed column exists, or the wrong calendar is in
+  play, say the time view isn't reliable until that's resolved.
+
+What to say instead: propose a narrower question the data *can* answer at its real
+grain, name the data work (new field, regrain, real date column, certified metric)
+needed first, or — when the need is durable and cross-team — propose a governed data
+product rather than yet another one-off dashboard.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **Building before defining the question** (the most common failure). The user jumps
+  straight into prompting, the tool returns a viz, and only later does everyone realize
+  it doesn't answer any actual business question. Effort is wasted and trust drops.
+- Getting the grain wrong — not knowing what one row represents — so every aggregation
+  is subtly (or badly) off.
+- Assuming overlapping columns mean the data *fits* the question (the Finance-vs-HR
+  trap).
+- Assuming an unexpected visualization is wrong, and "fixing" it, when it's actually
+  the correct answer to a different question — or a real outlier worth investigating.
+- Mismatched fields or aggregations that sound interchangeable but aren't (recognized
+  vs. booked vs. billed revenue; `SUM` vs. `COUNT`).
+- Wrong or mixed calendars (fiscal vs. calendar) distorting time views.
+- Building a one-off dashboard when the durable, cross-team need called for a governed
+  data product.
+
+## Implementation
+
+At session start, before any prompt or worksheet:
+
+1. **Interrogate the data.** Establish provenance, time coverage, grain ("one row =
+   one ___"), key measures/dimensions, and context fields. Confirm a real date column
+   and the correct calendar if time is involved.
+2. **Check fit.** Confirm this data is actually used for the kind of question being
+   asked — overlapping fields are not enough.
+3. **Frame the question.** Get a one-sentence business question, restate it, and map it
+   to the specific fields that will answer it. Raise anything missing or derived now.
+4. **Match to a dashboard-friendly shape** (magnitude / comparison / change over time /
+   distribution). If it's deeper correlation/driver analysis, set expectations or route
+   it to an analyst/agent.
+5. **Build scoped, single-intent prompts** — one question per prompt.
+6. **Validate unexpected results** against the checklist above (filters, nulls/dupes,
+   time period, fields, aggregation, data set, reframing) before assuming the viz is
+   wrong; validate outside the dashboard when structure checks out but it still looks
+   off.
+7. **Decide dashboard vs. data product** based on whether the need is point-in-time or
+   durable and cross-team, and build to that intent.

+# Validate Data Availability and Quality Before Building a Dashboard
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user or analyst working in the product
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, validate, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Guides Claude to prompt analysts to check data availability and quality before building, preventing costly mid-build discoveries of missing or broken data.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: pre-authoring, data-exploration, data-quality, dashboard-planning, data-availability, dimensions, measures, data-governance, data-warehouse, analyst-workflow
+- Expected agent behavior: Before helping build a dashboard, Claude should assess the analyst's goal (exploration vs. answering a specific question), check that the required data exists and is of sufficient quality, summarize its findings, and only proceed to visualization if the data checks out. If gaps are found, Claude surfaces them and asks the analyst how to proceed rather than building on flawed foundations.
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "help me build a dashboard", "where do I start", "I want to visualize my data", "create a dashboard", "analyze my data", "I have a data question to answer"
+- Suggested golden task: Ask Claude to help build a dashboard for a specific business question; verify that Claude checks for the relevant fields and flags any missing or low-quality data before producing a visualization.
+- Safe refusal condition: Claude should not build a visualization when required data fields are missing or data quality issues are unresolved — it should surface the gaps and ask the analyst what to do next.
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when a Tableau user or analyst asks Claude to help them build a dashboard or analyze their data. Apply it at the start of any authoring session, before any visualization is created.
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Analysts who have been asked to answer a specific business question and need to verify their data can support it.
+- Analysts who are exploring a dataset and want to discover what questions they can answer.
+- Any situation where the analyst may not yet know whether their data is available, complete, or trustworthy.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Begin by asking the analyst what they want to achieve: are they exploring data to find insights, or do they have a specific question to answer? These two modes call for different approaches.
+- For the **specific-question mode**: validate that the data needed to answer the question exists and is of sufficient quality. Write a brief summary of findings — what is available, what is missing, and any quality issues found (missing fields, missing values, mismatched identifiers, incomplete coverage). If the data checks out, proceed to build following visualization best practices. If gaps are found, stop and ask the analyst what the best next step is. Where possible, help identify who owns the missing data or what needs to be resolved at the source.
+- For the **exploration mode**: review the available fields — attributes (dimensions) and metrics (measures) — and recommend a set of questions the analyst could answer with the data they have. Offer a mocked-up or starter dashboard that visualizes key trends, and suggest relevant analyses including forecasting, segmentation, or other statistical approaches where appropriate.
+- Always distinguish between data availability issues (the data does not exist or is not modeled where expected) and data quality issues (the data exists but is incomplete, mismatched, or unreliable). Both can derail an analysis.
+- Encourage the analyst to sketch or describe how they want the dashboard to look before building — early layout thinking prevents rework.
+- When data issues are found, recommend fixing them at the source through the appropriate data or governance team rather than applying short-term workarounds in the workbook, which can introduce errors and shift accountability away from the right owner.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Say no to building a visualization when required data is missing or data quality issues have not been resolved.
+
+Recommended wording:
+
+> I found some gaps in your data before we start building — for example, a required field is missing, some values are incomplete, or identifiers are inconsistent across sources. Building a dashboard on this data now could lead to incomplete or misleading results. What would you like to do — should I help you identify who owns this data or what would need to be fixed before we proceed?
+
+Offer this instead:
+
+- A summary of what data is available and what is missing or low quality.
+- Guidance on who typically owns the missing data (data warehousing team, data governance team, a specific department) if Claude can infer this from context.
+- A suggestion to revisit the dashboard after the data issue is resolved at the source.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- Starting to build visualizations before checking whether the required data exists or is complete — this often leads to discovering gaps mid-build and having to restart the analysis.
+- Treating a data availability problem as a permissions issue when the data may simply not exist in the warehouse or may not be modeled where expected.
+- Applying a short-term fix in the workbook (such as hardcoding values or joining on an unreliable key) instead of escalating the quality issue to the data team — this can introduce errors and shift accountability away from the appropriate owner.
+- Skipping data quality checks and assuming data from multiple vendors or sources is consistent — identifiers for the same entity can differ across sources or be missing entirely.
+- Not confirming with the analyst what "success" looks like for the dashboard before building — a layout sketch or a clear question statement prevents misaligned output.
+
+## Implementation
+
+**For the specific-question workflow:**
+
+1. Ask the analyst to state the specific question they need to answer and identify the key fields required.
+2. Review the available data for those fields: check for presence, completeness, and consistency (e.g., do identifier fields match across sources?).
+3. Write a short data quality summary: what is available, what is missing, and what quality issues exist.
+4. If the data checks out, proceed to build the visualization following Tableau authoring best practices.
+5. If gaps are found, present the summary and ask: "What would you like to do next?" Offer to help identify the data owner or describe what needs to be resolved at the source.
+6. Do not apply short-term workarounds in the workbook without flagging the risk and confirming with the analyst.
+
+**For the exploration workflow:**
+
+1. Review the available fields — list the dimensions (attributes) and measures (metrics) in the dataset.
+2. Suggest 3–5 questions the analyst could explore given what is available.
+3. Offer a starter or mocked-up dashboard that visualizes the most actionable trends.
+4. Note where machine learning, forecasting, or segmentation could add value and suggest incorporating those if the analyst is interested.
+
+**Field example:** An analyst at a financial services firm tried to add a securities-level exposure view to a firm-wide dashboard — showing the firm's exposure to individual stocks and bonds across sectors, currencies, and regions. The required field, a common securities identifier (CUSIP), was missing from some vendor data sources, mismatched in others, and replaced with a different identifier for certain securities. The analyst discovered this mid-build while querying the data warehouse, leading to approximately two weeks of investigation and coordination with the Investment Risk and Data Warehousing teams, followed by additional weeks waiting for the fix to be made at the source. A pre-build data validation step would have surfaced this gap before any dashboard work began.

+# Example Workbooks & Chart Starting Points
+
+Reference guide for finding and using Tableau example workbooks, viz templates, and built-in sample data — useful for demos, POCs, and customer education.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude point users to example workbooks and starting templates when authoring or prototyping a viz.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: examples, templates, sample-data, demos, starting-points
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "where are Tableau examples", "sample data for demo", "how to find workbook templates", "copy a chart from another workbook", "download from Tableau Public", "starting point for a dashboard", "corporate workbook examples", "exchange accelerator for my industry", "Superstore sample data", "reuse an existing viz"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+- **Building a quick demo** and need a starting point for a specific chart type
+- **A customer asks for an example** of a particular visualization
+- **Creating a POC** using sample data that resembles a customer's use case
+- **Creating a corporate dashboard** and need to align with existing Tableau Cloud/Server content, metric definitions, naming, or visual conventions
+- **Checking Tableau Exchange accelerators** for a domain-specific workbook, data model, or dashboard pattern to jump-start the work
+- **Looking for inspiration** from Tableau Public for a specific industry or use case
+- **Injecting or copying an approved workbook/sheet** as a starting point before remapping it to the target datasource
+- **Teaching a customer** how a complex chart type works by showing a working example first
+
+---
+
+## Precedent-First Inspiration Workflow
+
+Before building a substantive visualization or dashboard from scratch, look for proven Tableau patterns in this order:
+
+1. **Internal Tableau Cloud/Server content**: In corporate environments, search existing workbooks, views, dashboards, published datasources, tags, owners, and project folders for the subject area, KPI names, business process, audience, and source system. Internal examples often carry the organization's vocabulary, governed metric definitions, color conventions, filter patterns, and trusted data model choices.
+2. **Tableau Exchange accelerators**: Search Exchange accelerators by industry, department, source application, or business process. Accelerators are useful for jump-starting domain layouts, metric packs, and expected dashboard sections, but always validate their data requirements and remap them to the user's available fields.
+3. **Tableau Public examples**: Search public workbooks by topic, chart type, industry, and storytelling pattern. Download or inspect workbook structure when the author allows it, then adapt techniques rather than copying blindly.
+4. **Template libraries and built-in samples**: Fall back to known-good sample workbooks, personal template workbooks, or Superstore/World Indicators when no closer precedent exists.
+
+When adapting a precedent, capture what you learned: source workbook/view name or URL, author/owner when available, which layout or calculation pattern is being reused, and what was changed for the user's datasource. Do not upload private or customer data to public services. Only copy, inject, or redistribute external workbooks when permissions and license terms allow it.
+
+### Using a precedent as a starting workbook
+
+When an approved workbook is downloadable or available internally:
+
+1. Open or import the workbook in Tableau Desktop.
+2. Copy the relevant worksheet/dashboard or inject the workbook as a starting point.
+3. Replace demo datasources with the target datasource and remap fields.
+4. Rename datasources, sheets, dashboards, captions, and comments so they match the user's domain.
+5. Remove unused demo data, hidden fields, stale calculations, and source-specific branding.
+6. Preserve attribution/provenance in notes or documentation when an external example materially influenced the result.
+7. Verify calculations, filters, actions, performance, and visual fit against the target audience and data.
+
+---
+
+## Built-in Sample Data
+
+Tableau Desktop ships with sample datasets that cover common use cases.
+
+### Sample - Superstore
+
+Location: included in every Tableau Desktop installation; appears in the start screen under Sample Workbooks.
+
+Fields: Order ID, Order Date, Ship Date, Customer Name, Segment, Region, State, Category, Sub-Category, Product Name, Sales, Quantity, Discount, Profit.
+
+**Good for:** sales analytics demos, bar charts, maps, time series, profitability analysis, YoY comparisons.
+
+### World Indicators
+
+Built-in sample with country-level economic and demographic data. Good for map visualizations and scatter plots showing correlations across countries.
+
+### Sample Workbooks
+
+Tableau ships several sample workbooks demonstrating different chart types and techniques:
+- **Superstore** — comprehensive sales dashboard with multiple views
+- **World Indicators** — geographic and trend visualizations
+- **Regional** — regional sales breakdown with filters
+
+Access via: File → Open → Tableau Packaged Workbook → navigate to Tableau's install directory → `Samples/`.
+
+---
+
+## Tableau Public — Community Examples
+
+Tableau Public (public.tableau.com) hosts public workbooks, many of which are downloadable when authors allow it. It is a strong source for inspiration and working examples of complex chart types.
+
+### Finding examples
+
+- **Search by chart type:** "bump chart", "waffle chart", "Sankey diagram", "chord chart"
+- **Search by industry:** "healthcare dashboard", "financial reporting", "HR analytics"
+- **Viz of the Day gallery:** curated examples of high-quality work updated daily
+- **Author profiles:** prominent community contributors often publish tutorials alongside their vizzes
+
+### Downloading a workbook from Tableau Public
+
+1. Open the viz on public.tableau.com
+2. Click the Download button at the bottom of the viz
+3. Choose Tableau Workbook — downloads as `.twbx`
+4. Open in Tableau Desktop and inspect how it was built
+
+This is the fastest way to learn how a complex technique (e.g., a Sankey diagram, a hex map, a donut chart) is constructed. The workbook shows all calculated fields, shelf configuration, and datasource structure.
+
+---
+
+## Chart Type Starting Points
+
+For common chart types, these are the quickest ways to get a working starting point in Tableau Desktop:
+
+### Bar Chart
+1. Connect to any datasource
+2. Double-click a dimension → it lands on Rows
+3. Double-click a measure → it lands on Columns
+4. Tableau auto-creates a horizontal bar chart
+
+### Line Chart (Time Series)
+1. Drag a date dimension to Columns (appears as YEAR by default; click the `+` to expand to Month)
+2. Drag a measure to Rows
+3. Mark type auto-selects Line
+
+### Scatter Plot
+1. Drag a measure to Columns, a different measure to Rows
+2. Mark type auto-selects Circle
+3. Drag a dimension to Color or Detail to control granularity
+
+### Map
+1. Drag a geographic dimension (State, Country, ZIP) to the canvas — Tableau auto-creates a map
+2. Or double-click the geographic field in the Data pane
+3. Drop a measure on Color for a choropleth, or on Size for a symbol map
+
+### Gantt Chart
+1. Drag a date to Columns as a continuous (green) date
+2. Drag the task/entity dimension to Rows
+3. Change mark type to Gantt Bar
+4. Drag a duration measure to Size
+
+### Text Table / Crosstab
+1. Drag dimensions to Rows and/or Columns
+2. Drag measures to Text on the marks card
+3. Mark type auto-selects Text
+
+### BAN (Big Number KPI)
+1. Create a new worksheet
+2. Drag an aggregated measure to Text
+3. Change mark type to Text
+4. Format the text size to 36-48pt via Format → Font → Marks
+5. Suppress axes and gridlines
+
+---
+
+## Designing a Demo Workbook
+
+When building a demo workbook for a customer meeting:
+
+**Start with the customer's data if possible.** A demo on fake data is less compelling than one that shows the customer's own field names and patterns. Even a CSV export of 500 rows from their system is better than Superstore.
+
+**If using sample data, pick the closest analogy:**
+
+| Customer domain | Sample data substitute |
+|---|---|
+| Retail / e-commerce | Superstore (orders, products, geography) |
+| Global / international | World Indicators (countries, metrics) |
+| CRM / sales pipeline | Superstore (Customer, Segment, Profit as revenue proxy) |
+| HR / workforce | Build manually from a small CSV — no good built-in analog |
+
+**Keep the demo workbook focused:**
+- 3-4 sheets maximum for a 30-minute demo
+- One clear analytical question per sheet
+- Show the "wow" viz first (the most visually impressive), not last
+- Include at least one interactive element (filter, parameter, action) to demonstrate engagement
+
+---
+
+## Reusing Charts Across Workbooks
+
+When you have a chart that works well and want to use a similar one in another workbook:
+
+**Copy sheets between workbooks:**
+1. Open both workbooks in Tableau Desktop
+2. Right-click the source sheet tab → Copy Sheet
+3. Switch to the target workbook → right-click blank area in the tab bar → Paste Sheet
+
+Note: copied sheets bring their datasource dependencies with them. If the target workbook uses a different datasource, you'll need to re-map the fields (Tableau prompts you to do this).
+
+**Saving a template workbook:**
+Keep a personal "template library" `.twbx` with working examples of complex charts (Gantt, bump chart, trellis, sparkline table). When you need one, open the library, copy the sheet to the customer workbook, and remap fields.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Start with internal Tableau precedents in corporate contexts.** Existing Cloud/Server workbooks usually reflect the organization's trusted metrics, terminology, governance, and design conventions better than generic examples.
+- **Check Tableau Exchange accelerators before designing a domain dashboard from scratch.** Accelerators can provide a useful data model, metric inventory, and layout scaffold even when they need remapping.
+- **Download working examples from Tableau Public before building from scratch.** For complex chart types (Sankey, waffle, hex map), building from an existing working example is 10x faster than constructing from scratch.
+- **Preserve attribution and provenance.** Note the internal workbook, Exchange accelerator, or Tableau Public example that shaped the design, especially when copying sheets, calculations, or layout patterns.
+- **Use Superstore for training and demos, not for polished customer work.** Customers can tell when a demo uses sample data. Use real or realistic data when the stakes are higher.
+- **Keep a personal template workbook.** Complex charts (trellis, sparkline table, KPI scorecard) take time to configure correctly. Save working versions you can copy from rather than rebuilding each time.
+- **Match the demo workbook to the customer's sophistication level.** A highly technical customer will appreciate seeing the calc fields and data model. An executive audience wants to see the dashboard, not the mechanics.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Starting from scratch without checking organizational precedent.** In corporate contexts, this often misses trusted metric definitions, naming conventions, and dashboard interaction patterns users already expect.
+2. **Using Superstore for a customer who sells services, not physical goods.** The "Orders", "Products", "Shipping" framing doesn't resonate with a professional services or SaaS customer. Build a quick custom CSV that uses their vocabulary.
+3. **Copying a public workbook without checking permissions or preserving attribution.** Tableau Public is public, not automatically license-free for redistribution or uncredited reuse.
+4. **Uploading private or customer data to a public service to test a public example.** Keep sensitive data inside approved systems; adapt the workbook locally or use synthetic/sample data.
+5. **Showing a demo at 1920x1080 to a customer who views Tableau on a 1366x768 laptop.** What looks good on your monitor may be unreadable at their resolution. Test the dashboard at the target size before the meeting.
+6. **Forgetting to package the extract with the workbook.** Sending a `.twb` (not `.twbx`) to a customer who doesn't have your database access means they open a blank workbook. Always send `.twbx` when sharing standalone workbooks.
+7. **Copying a sheet from Superstore into a customer workbook and leaving "Orders" as the datasource name.** Rename the datasource to match the customer's data immediately after copying.
+8. **Building the demo the day before the meeting.** Complex chart types require iteration. Build the demo at least 2-3 days early to have time to troubleshoot and polish.

+# Calculation Authoring Best Practices
+
+Guide for writing clean, maintainable Tableau calculated fields — covering multi-line formulas, formula comments, naming conventions, and avoiding common authoring mistakes.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: calculate, refine
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude write clean, maintainable Tableau calculated fields when authoring calculations.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: calculated-fields, formulas, comments, naming, maintainability
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "calculated field shows red error", "how to write a clean calculation", "multi-line formula in Tableau", "why is my calc field broken", "comment in a Tableau formula", "naming calculated fields best practice", "field reference not found", "IF THEN ELSE formatting", "circular reference calc", "formula underlined in editor"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+- **Writing a complex calculated field** with multiple branches or nested LODs
+- **Reviewing a customer's calculated fields** that are hard to read
+- **A calculated field shows a red error in the Data pane** even though the formula appears valid
+- **Explaining best practices for formula organization** to a customer building their own workbooks
+
+---
+
+## Multi-Line Formulas
+
+Break complex IF/ELSEIF chains and nested LODs across multiple lines. Tableau's formula editor supports multi-line entry — press Enter for a new line.
+
+**Recommended format for IF/ELSEIF:**
+```
+IF [R Score] >= 4 AND [F Score] >= 4 THEN
+    "Champions"
+ELSEIF [R Score] >= 4 AND [F Score] <= 2 THEN
+    "New Customers"
+ELSEIF [R Score] <= 2 AND [F Score] >= 3 THEN
+    "At Risk"
+ELSE
+    "Needs Attention"
+END
+```
+
+**Avoid column-aligning THEN clauses with spaces.** The formula editor toggles between the field's internal name and its display caption — these have different widths, so aligned spacing looks crooked in one view and aligned in another. Break-after-keyword is the stable format.
+
+---
+
+## Formula Comments
+
+Tableau supports `//` line comments in calculated fields. Use them to document **analytical intent**, not authoring mechanics.
+
+**Good comments:**
+```
+// Days since each customer's last closed-won opportunity.
+// Smaller value = more recently active customer.
+DATEDIFF('day', { FIXED [Account Name] : MAX([Close Date]) }, TODAY())
+```
+
+**Bad comments:**
+```
+// References the Recency LOD field by its internal name.
+// This field was created for RFM scoring on 2026-03-15.
+```
+
+The bad examples describe authoring history rather than the meaning of the formula. A future analyst reading the calc doesn't need to know how it was created — they need to understand what it represents.
+
+Leave a blank line between the comment block and the first line of the formula for visual separation.
+
+Comments survive every Save and help future maintainers understand complex segmentation logic without having to reverse-engineer the formulas.
+
+---
+
+## Naming Calculated Fields
+
+**Use the Caption (display name) for the human-readable label** and keep the formula focused. The name shown in the Data pane is the caption — make it self-describing:
+
+| Instead of... | Use... |
+|---|---|
+| `Calc1`, `My Calc` | `Revenue per Order` |
+| `Test`, `Temp` | `Profit Margin (%)` |
+| `R`, `F`, `M` | `RFM: R Score (1-5)` |
+
+**Prefix related fields** to group them visually in the Data pane. All fields starting with `RFM:` sort together; all starting with `KPI:` sort together.
+
+---
+
+## Red Error in the Data Pane (Formula Appears Valid)
+
+A calculated field showing a red exclamation mark in the Data pane despite a valid formula is usually caused by one of these:
+
+**1. A referenced field doesn't exist in the datasource.**
+- Check every `[Field Name]` in the formula against the actual fields in the Data pane
+- Field names are case-insensitive but must match the field name exactly (including spaces)
+- If a field was renamed or deleted, formulas referencing it break silently
+
+**2. A parameter is referenced by the wrong name.**
+- Parameters must be referenced by their exact name as shown in the Data pane
+- If the parameter was renamed, update all formulas that reference it
+
+**3. An aggregate function is used incorrectly.**
+- You cannot mix aggregated and non-aggregated fields in the same formula without an LOD expression
+- Example: `SUM([Sales]) / [Quantity]` fails because `[Quantity]` is row-level but `SUM([Sales])` is aggregated. Fix: `SUM([Sales]) / SUM([Quantity])`
+
+**4. A circular reference.**
+- If Calc A references Calc B and Calc B references Calc A, both show errors
+- Identify the dependency chain and break the cycle
+
+**5. A calc references a datasource field that was removed or the datasource was replaced.**
+- Check Data menu → Data Source → verify the datasource fields are all still available
+
+**To diagnose:** double-click the field to open the formula editor. Tableau underlines the specific term it can't resolve. The error description at the bottom of the editor identifies the issue.
+
+---
+
+## Formula Best Practices
+
+- **Use `ZN()` to handle nulls returning 0.** `ZN([Sales])` is cleaner than `IFNULL([Sales], 0)` and is the idiomatic Tableau form.
+- **Use `DATEDIFF` and `DATEADD` for date arithmetic.** Explicit unit parameters (`'day'`, `'month'`) make the intent clear and handle edge cases (DST, leap years) correctly.
+- **Guard zero denominators in ratio sort keys.** For attainment, margin, and other ratio calcs used for sorting/ranking, use `IIF([Denominator]=0, NULL, [Numerator]/[Denominator])`; NULL sorts honestly, while `ZN()` would rank a no-quota rep as 0% and lie. A bare `[Numerator]/[Denominator]` sort key silently errors or drops rows when a zero-denominator row appears.
+- **Avoid deeply nesting IF inside IF.** More than 3 levels of nesting is hard to maintain. Flatten into sequential `ELSEIF` clauses or break into separate intermediate calculated fields.
+- **Use intermediate calculated fields** to give names to complex sub-expressions. `{ FIXED [Customer ID] : MAX([Order Date]) }` is better as a named field `[Last Order Date per Customer]` that other calcs reference, rather than inlining the LOD into every formula that needs it.
+- **Test edge cases:** nulls (what does the calc return for a customer with no orders?), zero denominators (does any division use `NULLIF(..., 0)` or `ZN()`?), and boundary values in ELSEIF chains.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Using aggregates and row-level fields together without LOD.** `SUM([Sales]) > [Target]` fails — `[Target]` is row-level. Fix: make `[Target]` a FIXED LOD or aggregate it: `SUM([Sales]) > SUM([Target])`.
+2. **Hard-coding threshold values in formulas.** A formula with `IF [Sales] > 10000 THEN "High"` becomes wrong the moment the threshold changes. Use a parameter instead: `IF [Sales] > [Sales Threshold] THEN "High"`.
+3. **Referencing a parameter before it has been created.** If a formula references `[My Parameter]` but the parameter doesn't exist yet, the field errors. Create the parameter first.
+4. **Using OR instead of ELSEIF for exclusive categories.** `IF [x] = 'A' OR [x] = 'B' THEN 1 END` returns null for other values. Use `ELSE 0 END` if a default is needed.
+5. **Forgetting that FIXED LOD ignores dimension filters.** A `{FIXED [Customer] : SUM([Sales])}` doesn't change when the user applies a Region filter — it always returns the all-time total per customer. Use a context filter if the LOD should be scoped to the current filter selection.

+# Calculated Fields, Parameters & Table Calculations
+
+Strategy guide for deciding *how* to model logic in Tableau calculations — when to reach for an LOD expression, a table calculation, or a parameter, and how the Order of Operations should drive those choices. This is a decision/judgment companion; it defers raw XML and authoring mechanics to the tactics file.
+
+Tags: calculated-fields, lod, parameters, table-calcs, order-of-operations
+
+**Tactics companion:** `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/calc-fields` — the XML/authoring mechanics for this topic.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, calculate, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: This guides Claude's decision when adding LOD expressions, parameters, or table calculations to model logic in Tableau dashboards and helps troubleshoot calc-filter interactions via the Order of Operations.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: calculated-fields, lod, parameters, table-calcs, order-of-operations, fixed, include-exclude, rank, running-total, percentile, ntile, sets, membership-vs-value, top-n, densification
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "LOD vs table calc when to use", "FIXED INCLUDE EXCLUDE difference", "rank vs set for top 10", "top N filter removes rows I need", "running total or LOD", "percentile bucket segmentation", "RFM score calculation", "parameter for what-if analysis", "context filter with LOD", "table calc not working across partitions"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+- **Adding a calculated field** to a datasource (profit ratio, date difference, string categorization)
+- **Translating SQL expressions** to Tableau calculated fields during datasource refactoring
+- **Setting up a parameter** with a list or range of allowed values that a calculation references
+- **Configuring a table calculation** (running total, rank, percent of total, moving average)
+- **Applying a Top N filter per partition** using the rank-on-rows pattern
+- **Debugging unexpected filter/calc interactions** — consult the Order of Operations section
+
+---
+
+## LOD vs. Table Calc: The Core Decision
+
+LOD (Level of Detail) expressions and table calculations both compute at a granularity other than the view, but they answer different questions and live at different points in the Order of Operations. Picking the wrong one is the most common modeling mistake.
+
+| Tool | Computes on | Best when |
+|---|---|---|
+| `FIXED` LOD | Underlying rows, at a fixed grain you name | You need an entity-level value (per-customer total) that does NOT change as the view is re-sliced |
+| `INCLUDE` / `EXCLUDE` LOD | Underlying rows, relative to the view's grain | You want the view's grain plus/minus one dimension, and the result *should* react to dimension filters |
+| Table calc | Aggregated results visible in the view | The answer is inherently positional/relative — running totals, rank, percent-of-total, period-over-period |
+
+**Decision rule:** if the answer should be stable regardless of what is on the shelves, reach for an LOD. If the answer is "relative to the other marks in this view" (rank, running sum, % of visible total), it is a table calc by nature.
+
+**Check LOD-legal aggregates before defaulting to a table calc.** The aggregate set usable inside an LOD is wider than most expect — including `PERCENTILE`, `MEDIAN`, `STDEV`, `VAR`, `CORR`, `COVAR`. Using an LOD keeps the calc evaluable anywhere and removes the "must have the partitioning dimension on Detail" constraint a table calc imposes.
+
+**PERCENTILE-in-LOD vs. NTILE table calc.** For quintile/decile segmentation (e.g. RFM), prefer a nested-LOD `PERCENTILE` cutoff over the `INDEX()/SIZE()` table-calc workaround. The LOD version becomes a row-level attribute that works in any view; the table-calc version only resolves when the partitioning dimension sits on Detail. Collapse each entity to one row with an inner `FIXED` before taking the percentile so high-transaction entities are not over-weighted. Caveat: `NTILE(k)` forces exactly 1/k of rows per bucket by splitting ties; PERCENTILE cutoffs put tied values in the same bucket (usually the better behavior for segmentation, but not exact NTILE parity). For the concrete nested-LOD formulas, see the tactics companion.
+
+## Membership vs. Value: Set vs. RANK/Filter/LOD  {#membership-vs-value}
+
+The single most common wrong turn on "top/bottom-N performers" tasks. Before writing a RANK/LOD calc or a Top-N filter, ask **what is the output** — a *value*, or *group membership*?
+
+| You want… | Use | Why |
+|---|---|---|
+| A **displayed ordinal value** — a rank number on the viz, a Pareto, `RANK_UNIQUE` table-calc filter, per-partition rank | **RANK / table calc** | The answer is positional/relative to marks in the view |
+| A **stable per-entity value** independent of the view | **LOD** | Computed on underlying rows at a fixed grain |
+| **Group MEMBERSHIP** — tag rows Top / Bottom / Everyone-Else, to **color** them, keep-and-roll-up the rest, or drive a **click/parameter action** | **SET** (two Top-tab sets + a label calc) | Only a set *tags* membership while keeping all rows, can be a set-action target, and re-ranks live per period |
+
+**The decisive test — remove vs. tag, value vs. membership:**
+- A **Top-N filter REMOVES** the other rows — wrong when you must KEEP the middle (e.g. roll it into an "Everyone Else" bar).
+- A **positional-table-calc-as-membership** calc — `IF RANK(...) <= [param] THEN "Top" ELSEIF ... ELSE "Everyone Else"` — is the tell-tale wrong shape: it can't be a set-action target, won't re-rank live, and a table calc compared to a threshold to make a discrete group label often won't resolve as a dimension at all (order of operations — table calcs run at step 8, after the grouping is needed). **This is not specific to RANK: `INDEX() <= [param]`, `FIRST()`, `LAST()` are the exact same wrong turn** — swapping RANK for another positional table calc does NOT fix it (they all evaluate at step 8). If the label branch is driven by *any* positional table calc compared to a threshold, it's membership-in-disguise → use a set.
+- **Membership → sets** ([sets-usage-and-creation](data/knowledge/tactics/data/sets-usage-and-creation.md)); **a shown rank value or positional math → table calc** ([lod-and-table-calc-patterns](data/knowledge/tactics/data/lod-and-table-calc-patterns.md)); **a stable per-entity value → LOD**.
+- **Sets ARE parameter-driven in XML** — don't reject the set recipe on the false belief that "dynamic/parameter-driven sets need something beyond XML." A Top-N set's `<groupfilter count='[Parameters].[N]' end='top' …>` references the parameter directly, so it re-ranks live as the parameter moves. That's the whole point of the set over a RANK/INDEX calc.
+
+RANK, INDEX, filters, and LODs are all correct tools — for *values*. They are the wrong tool only for *membership*. This is the canonical statement; tactical entries link here rather than restating it.
+
+---
+
+## Parameters: When to Reach for One
+
+A parameter is the right tool when the user needs to *drive* the analysis with a value the data does not contain — a Top-N threshold, a what-if input, a date-range bound that controls densification (see below), or a switch between measures. Prefer a parameter over a quick filter whenever the control must stay independent of the data (a filter can only choose from values present; a parameter cannot accidentally remove rows). For the create-and-bind mechanics, see the tactics companion.
+
+---
+
+## Tableau Order of Operations
+
+Know this when debugging why filters and calculations interact unexpectedly:
+
+1. Extract Filters → 2. Data Source Filters → 3. **Context Filters** →
+4. Sets / Conditional Filters / Top N / **FIXED LOD** →
+5. Dimension Filters → 6. INCLUDE/EXCLUDE LOD →
+7. Measure Filters → 8. **Table Calculations** →
+9. **Table Calc Filters** → 10. Trend/Reference Lines
+
+Key implications:
+- **Context filters** (step 3) restrict data before FIXED LODs (step 4) — use to scope LOD calculations
+- **Table calc filters** (step 9) run after all aggregation — ideal for Top N via `INDEX() <= N`
+- Prefer **table calcs + context filters** over FIXED LODs for flexible analysis — FIXED LODs query the entire dataset regardless of regular dimension filters
+
+---
+
+## Table Calculations: Choosing Scope
+
+Once you have decided a problem is genuinely positional (and therefore a table calc — see the decision table above), the only strategic choice left is *what the calc partitions and addresses over*. Get the Compute Using scope right and the calc is robust; get it wrong and it silently restarts on the wrong dimension.
+
+- **Use Specific Dimensions, not Table/Pane direction, in any view with more than one dimension.** Table (Across/Down) and Pane direction are guesses that break the moment a trellis or extra dimension is added; naming the dimension explicitly is unambiguous and survives layout changes.
+- **Match the addressing dimension to the analytical question** — a rank "within each month" partitions by month and addresses by the ranked entity; a running total "over time" addresses by the date.
+
+Common recipes built on this — bump charts, `WINDOW_*` KPI/sparkline tables, per-partition Top-N (rank-on-Rows, dimension-on-Label), and `INDEX()` data densification — share one strategic point and differ only in mechanics. The strategic decisions appear below; for the shelf-by-shelf build steps and formulas, see the tactics companion.
+
+### Data Densification: a filtering-strategy decision
+
+When a crosstab or heatmap must show **every** dimension combination — including empties — the strategic trap is the filter type, not the calc. A standard or context filter physically removes members from the view, which destroys densification and skews any average whose denominator should include the zero-activity members. The fix is to keep all members present and instead control what gets *counted* with a parameter-driven `IF` inside the measure (paired with `ZN()` to turn nulls into zeros).
+
+| Filter type | Effect on dimensions | Safe for densification? |
+|---|---|---|
+| Standard dimension filter | Removes filtered values from view | No — breaks densification |
+| Context filter | Removes filtered values from view | No — breaks densification |
+| Parameter + `IF` in calc | All values remain; measure returns 0 for excluded rows | Yes |
+
+### Per-Partition Top-N: a shaping decision
+
+To show Top-N *per* partition (top 10 sub-categories per month), the strategic call is to put RANK on Rows and the ranked dimension on Label — putting the dimension on Rows unions across all partitions and defeats the per-partition intent. The filter that keeps ranks 1–N belongs at the table-calc stage of the Order of Operations (`INDEX() <= [Top N]`).
+
+---
+
+## SQL Window/Aggregate Translation
+
+When porting SQL-derived logic, the LOD-vs-table-calc decision maps directly onto SQL constructs: a `GROUP BY` aggregate is a `FIXED` LOD (stable at the named grain); an `OVER (PARTITION BY … ORDER BY …)` window function is a table calc (positional within the view). `NTILE(k)` maps to the PERCENTILE-LOD pattern discussed above. For the full SQL→Tableau lookup table and the equal-count vs. equal-width bucket caveat, see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/sql-translation`.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Use context filters with FIXED LODs.** FIXED LOD calculations ignore regular dimension filters. Right-click the filter in the Filters shelf → **Add to Context** to scope the LOD.
+- **Choose LOD over table calc when possible.** LODs evaluate before dimension filters and don't require the partitioning dimension to be present in the view.
+- **Use `ZN()` to handle null measures in densified views.** Without ZN, densified empty cells return null and distort averages.
+- **Prefer PERCENTILE-LOD over NTILE table calcs** for quintile/decile segmentation — it's row-level, works anywhere in the view, and produces better semantics for entity-level analysis.
+- **Use Specific Dimensions for Compute Using in trellis views.** Table (Down) / Table (Across) can produce unexpected restarts when multiple dimensions are present.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **FIXED LOD ignoring a dashboard filter.** FIXED LOD runs before dimension filters (step 4 vs. step 5). Make the controlling filter a context filter so it scopes the LOD.
+2. **Table calc dimension not in the view.** Table calcs require their partitioning dimension to be present somewhere in the view — on Rows, Cols, Color, Detail, or Path. If the dimension is missing, the calc runs on the wrong partition.
+3. **Using NTILE range-mapping for exact equal-count buckets.** Range-mapping creates equal-width buckets, not equal-count. For quintiles matching SQL NTILE semantics, use the PERCENTILE-LOD pattern.
+4. **Percent of Total on wrong base.** When the underlying measure uses COUNTD, the table calc must aggregate by COUNTD — using SUM as the base produces wrong totals.
+5. **INDEX() densification breaking when quick filters are added.** Quick filters remove dimension members from the view, defeating densification. Use parameter-based filtering instead.
+6. **INCLUDE/EXCLUDE vs FIXED for filter scoping.** INCLUDE and EXCLUDE run at step 6 — after dimension filters. FIXED runs at step 4 — before dimension filters. Using INCLUDE where FIXED is needed produces results that change unexpectedly as filters are applied.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+This is a decision workflow, not an XML recipe:
+
+1. **State the question precisely.** Is the answer entity-stable (per-customer, per-account) or relative-to-the-view (rank, running total, % of visible total)?
+2. **Pick the tool from the question.** Entity-stable → LOD (prefer `FIXED`; check the aggregate is LOD-legal before defaulting to a table calc). Relative/positional → table calc. View-grain-relative → `INCLUDE`/`EXCLUDE`.
+3. **Walk the Order of Operations** to confirm filters land where you expect — especially that anything meant to scope a `FIXED` LOD is a context filter, and that Top-N filtering happens at the table-calc stage.
+4. **Decide the parameter vs. filter question** for any user-driven input or densification need (parameter keeps members present; filter removes them).
+5. **Hand off to mechanics.** Once the modeling choice is settled, build it using `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/calc-fields`, then verify in Tableau that totals, ranks, and densified denominators behave as intended.

+# Tableau Field & Mark Type Reference
+
+Quick-reference tables for Tableau field roles, data types, mark types, and filter classes. Use when authoring calculated fields, explaining field behavior, or troubleshooting display issues.
+
+Tags: field-roles, data-types, mark-types, filter-classes, reference
+
+**Tactics companion:** `expertise://tableau/tactics/tree/enums` — the XML/authoring mechanics for this topic.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: troubleshoot, format
+- In-scope reason: This quick reference helps Claude explain field behavior when a user's field displays incorrectly or filters behave unexpectedly, essential for troubleshooting authoring issues.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: field-roles, data-types, mark-types, filter-classes, reference, dimension, measure, discrete, continuous, datatype, string, integer, real, boolean, date, datetime, automatic-mark, bar, line, area, circle, text, gantt, polygon
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "dimension vs measure difference", "discrete vs continuous field", "why is my pill blue not green", "change field to continuous", "what mark type for scatter plot", "categorical filter dropdown", "date filter relative last N days", "automatic mark type not working", "field role behavior", "convert field to dimension"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+- **A customer asks why a field behaves differently than expected** — check role, type, and datatype
+- **Choosing a mark type** for a chart type discussion
+- **Explaining the difference between dimensions and measures**, or discrete vs. continuous
+- **Troubleshooting filter dialog options** that differ from what a customer expects
+
+---
+
+## Field Roles
+
+| Role | Behavior | Default pill color |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Dimension** | Slice and group data; categorical | Blue |
+| **Measure** | Aggregate values; numeric | Green |
+
+A field's role determines the default aggregation behavior and which shelf options are available. Right-click any field in the Data pane → Change to Dimension / Change to Measure to override.
+
+---
+
+## Field Types (Discrete vs Continuous)
+
+| Type | Behavior | Pill color |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Discrete** (nominal / ordinal) | Creates headers; values listed | Blue |
+| **Continuous** (quantitative) | Creates axes; values on a scale | Green |
+
+The type is independent of the role — you can have a discrete measure (e.g., RANK() on Rows as a discrete blue pill) or a continuous dimension (e.g., a date on Columns as a continuous green axis).
+
+Right-click a pill on a shelf → **Convert to Discrete** or **Convert to Continuous**.
+
+---
+
+## Data Types
+
+| Datatype | What it holds | Examples |
+|---|---|---|
+| `string` | Text | "West", "Customer A" |
+| `integer` | Whole numbers | 42, 1000 |
+| `real` | Decimal numbers | 3.14, 1234.56 |
+| `boolean` | True/False | Is Profitable: True |
+| `date` | Date only | 2024-01-15 |
+| `datetime` | Date + time | 2024-01-15 09:30:00 |
+
+Tableau infers the data type from the source. You can change it in the Data pane: right-click the field → **Change Data Type**.
+
+---
+
+## Mark Types
+
+| Mark type | Typical chart |
+|---|---|
+| **Automatic** | Tableau chooses based on what's on the shelves |
+| **Bar** | Categorical comparisons |
+| **Line** | Trends over time |
+| **Area** | Stacked/filled time series |
+| **Circle** | Scatter plots, dot plots |
+| **Square** | Filled square marks |
+| **Shape** | Shape-encoded categories |
+| **Text** | Text tables, BAN numbers |
+| **Pie** | Part-to-whole (use sparingly) |
+| **Gantt Bar** | Timeline / project charts |
+| **Polygon** | Custom polygon outlines |
+
+Change the mark type from the dropdown at the top of the marks card.
+
+**When Automatic works well:** Tableau's Automatic selection is correct for most standard charts — Bar when comparing categories, Line when dates are on Columns, Circle for scatter. Override it manually when you need a specific type that Automatic wouldn't choose (e.g., forcing Line when Tableau auto-selects Bar for discrete dates, or using Gantt Bar for timeline work).
+
+---
+
+## Filter Classes
+
+| Filter class | When it appears |
+|---|---|
+| **Categorical** | Dimension filter — check boxes or dropdown to include/exclude members |
+| **Quantitative (range)** | Measure filter or continuous date filter — min/max slider |
+| **Relative date** | Date dimension filter — "last N days/weeks/months" |
+| **Top N** | Dimension filter → Top tab — limit to top/bottom N by a measure |
+
+The filter class determines the dialog presented when you drag a field to the Filters shelf. Dates offer a special dialog with multiple filter types to choose from.
+
+---
+
+## Dashboard Zone Types
+
+| Zone type | What it is |
+|---|---|
+| **Visual** | A worksheet (sheet view) |
+| **Text** | A static text object |
+| **Image** | A static image/logo |
+| **Filter** | A filter control |
+| **Parameter control** | A parameter control widget |
+| **Blank** | Empty spacer zone |
+| **Web page** | Embedded URL content |
+| **Layout container** | Horizontal or vertical grouping container |
+
+In Tableau Desktop's dashboard canvas, these correspond to the object types in the Objects panel at the bottom of the dashboard layout panel.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Use the guidance above as the starting point for Tableau dashboard and visualization authoring decisions.
+- Validate the recommendation against the specific workbook, data, and customer goal before applying it.
+- Prefer supported Tableau authoring patterns over one-off workarounds.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- Treating this guidance as generic SE enablement rather than Tableau authoring guidance.
+- Applying the pattern without checking whether it fits the dashboard, visualization, or workbook context.
+- Skipping validation in Tableau after making authoring changes.
+
+## Implementation
+
+Use the tables above as the conceptual reference when reasoning about field behavior, choosing a mark type, or explaining a filter dialog. They map each role/type/datatype/mark/zone to its meaning and visible effect in Desktop. For the exact XSD enum values these correspond to in workbook XML (mark-type tokens, zone-type strings, filter classes, CI suffixes), see `expertise://tableau/tactics/tree/enums`.

+# Profitability Margins: Gross vs Operating vs Net
+
+A "margin" is profit-over-revenue, but *which* profit depends entirely on which costs you subtract — and the three common margins are routinely conflated. Ask "show me margin %" without pinning the definition and you can build a beautiful, correct-looking chart that answers the wrong question. This is a business-definition companion to the aggregate-ratio mechanics: the arithmetic (`SUM/SUM`, guard the zero denominator) is the same for all three; only the numerator's cost set changes.
+
+Tags: gross-margin, operating-margin, net-margin, profitability, cogs, opex, ratio-kpi, finance-metrics
+
+**Tactics companion:** `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/aggregate-ratio-window-total-semantics` — the ratio-of-sums arithmetic and zero-denominator guard every margin calc uses.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: calculate, validate, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Pins the business definition of gross / operating / net margin so the agent subtracts the correct cost set when a user asks for "margin %", preventing a syntactically-correct calc that answers the wrong question.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none — arithmetic mechanics defer to the aggregate-ratio tactics file.
+- Tags: gross-margin, operating-margin, net-margin, contribution-margin, profitability, cogs, opex, sg-and-a, ratio-kpi, finance-metrics, margin-percent
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "show me gross margin %", "margin percentage", "profitability by product", "gross vs operating margin", "which costs go into gross margin", "operating margin calculation", "net margin", "contribution margin", "why is my margin too low", "COGS margin", "profit margin by region"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Reach for this whenever a request names a **margin or profitability rate** without fully specifying the cost set:
+
+- "Show me gross margin %" / "margin by product" / "profitability" — the classic underspecified ask.
+- The datasource carries **several cost columns** (e.g. `cogs`, `s_and_m`, `r_and_d`, `g_and_a`) and you must decide which belong in the numerator.
+- A margin number looks "too low" — often because operating expenses were subtracted when gross was intended (or vice versa).
+
+If the user names the exact margin *and* the data has a single obvious cost, skip this and just author the ratio.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Gross margin excludes operating expenses.** Gross margin % = `(SUM([revenue]) - SUM([cogs])) / SUM([revenue])`. Only the **cost of goods sold** (direct cost of producing what was sold) is subtracted. Sales & marketing, R&D, and G&A are operating expenses and do **not** belong in gross margin.
+2. **Operating margin subtracts operating expenses too.** Operating margin % = `(SUM([revenue]) - SUM([cogs]) - SUM([s_and_m]) - SUM([r_and_d]) - SUM([g_and_a])) / SUM([revenue])`. This is operating income (EBIT-ish) over revenue — it sits below gross on the income statement.
+3. **Net margin is the bottom line.** Net margin % subtracts *everything* — operating expenses plus interest and taxes — over revenue. Only compute it when those columns exist; don't fabricate them.
+4. **Contribution margin is a fourth, different idea.** Contribution margin subtracts only **variable** costs (not all COGS, not fixed opex). If the data doesn't distinguish variable from fixed, say so rather than guessing.
+5. **When the data has multiple cost columns and the ask is bare, pin the definition before building.** Either state the assumption plainly ("computing gross margin = (revenue − COGS) / revenue; say the word for operating margin") or ask one clarifying question — never silently fold opex into a "gross" ask.
+6. **The arithmetic is always ratio-of-sums with a zero guard.** All margins are `SUM(profit_of_some_kind) / SUM(revenue)` — sum the parts first, then divide (never `AVG(row ratio)`), and guard `SUM([revenue]) = 0`. See the tactics companion.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Subtracting operating expenses for a "gross margin" ask.** Folding `s_and_m` / `r_and_d` / `g_and_a` into the numerator computes *operating* margin and is wrong for "gross" even if the chart is beautiful. This is the single most common margin error.
+2. **Averaging row-level margins.** `AVG([margin])` weights a $10 order the same as a $10M order. Use `SUM(numerator) / SUM(denominator)`.
+3. **Unguarded divide by zero.** A period or product with zero revenue silently errors or drops. Wrap with `IIF(SUM([revenue]) = 0, NULL, …)` or flag it.
+4. **Inventing cost columns.** If only `revenue` and `cogs` exist, you can compute gross margin — not operating or net. Never fabricate an opex column; say what's computable.
+5. **Confusing margin (÷ revenue) with markup (÷ cost).** Margin is profit over *revenue*; markup is profit over *cost*. "40% margin" ≠ "40% markup."
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. Identify the margin the user means; if the ask is bare and the data has multiple cost columns, state the assumption (default to **gross**: revenue − COGS) or ask one question.
+2. Author the calc through the no-XML authoring verb (`author-calc`), never hand-spliced XML: `(SUM([revenue]) - SUM([cogs])) / SUM([revenue])` for gross, extending the subtracted set for operating/net.
+3. Guard the zero denominator and format as a percentage.
+4. Report which margin you built and which costs it subtracts, so the user can correct the definition in one word.

+# SQL to Tableau Calculation Translation
+
+Strategy guide for *deciding how* a piece of SQL should be re-expressed in Tableau — the FIXED-LOD-vs-table-calc judgment, the equal-count-vs-equal-width bucketing tradeoff, and when to refactor SQL out of the datasource at all. This is a decision companion; it defers the line-by-line SQL→Tableau lookup tables to the tactics file.

+
+**Tactics companion:** `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/sql-translation` — the XML/authoring mechanics for this topic.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: This guides Claude's decision when refactoring custom SQL datasources into native Tableau calculated fields and helps translate SQL logic users want to express in Tableau.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: sql, calculated-fields, translation, custom-sql, refactoring, group-by, window-function, ntile, equal-count, equal-width, lag-lead, datediff, nested-lod, aggregate-of-aggregate

+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+- **Refactoring a custom SQL datasource** — each SQL computed column becomes a Tableau calculated field
+- **A customer asks "how do I express this SQL in Tableau?"**
+- **Porting windowed ranking, date arithmetic, or CASE logic** from SQL into a Tableau workbook
+- **Explaining the FIXED LOD vs. table calc decision** to a customer familiar with SQL window functions
+
+---
+
+## The Two Questions That Decide Every Translation
+
+Before looking up a single function, the SQL construct itself tells you which Tableau primitive to use. Almost every translation reduces to two questions:
+
+1. **Does the result change as the viz is re-sliced?** A SQL `GROUP BY` aggregate is *stable* at its grain — it should become a `FIXED` LOD, evaluated at the grain you name regardless of what is on the shelves. This mirrors `GROUP BY` semantics: the value is attached at the entity level and does not drift as the view is filtered or dimensioned.
+2. **Is the result inherently relative to other rows?** A SQL window function (`OVER (PARTITION BY … ORDER BY …)`) — rank, running total, lag/lead — is *positional* and should become a table calculation. Table calcs run on the aggregated data *visible in the view*, so the answer depends on the shelves; that is correct for windowed analysis but wrong for anything that should be partition-agnostic.
+
+Scalar SQL (casts, string concat, date math, `CASE`) is the easy case: it maps one-to-one to a scalar Tableau function with no grain implications.
+
+**Practical consequence:** when in doubt between a `FIXED` LOD and a table calc, prefer the LOD for anything that must stay stable, because a table calc silently breaks when the view layout changes. For the exact function-by-function lookup tables (GROUP BY, scalar, and window), see the tactics companion.
+
+---
+
+## NTILE: the Equal-Count vs. Equal-Width Tradeoff
+
+SQL `NTILE(k)` has no direct Tableau equivalent, and the choice of approximation is a *semantic* decision, not a mechanical one:
+
+- **Range-mapping** (a linear `INT(1 + 4 * (value-min)/range)` formula) produces equal-**width** buckets. It is simple but skews badly when the distribution is lopsided — a few outliers can leave whole buckets empty.
+- **LOD `PERCENTILE` cutoffs** produce true equal-**count** buckets, matching SQL `NTILE` semantics, and are the right default for quintile/decile segmentation (RFM, etc.).
+
+Pick equal-count (PERCENTILE) unless the customer specifically wants fixed-width bands. Either way, compute the per-entity value first (an inner `FIXED`) before bucketing, so high-transaction entities are not over-weighted. For the actual range-mapping and PERCENTILE formulas, see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/calc-fields` and the tactics companion.
+
+---
+
+## Nested LODs: Evaluation Order as a Design Tool
+
+Tableau evaluates LODs inside-out, and that ordering is what makes entity-then-distribution scoring possible: an inner per-entity `FIXED` collapses each customer/account to one value, and an outer table-scoped `FIXED` (no dimension) then takes the global aggregate over those entity values. Recognizing this two-stage shape is the key strategic insight for translating any "aggregate-of-an-aggregate" SQL (e.g. average of per-customer totals, percentile of per-account revenue). For the concrete nested-LOD snippets, see the tactics companion.
+
+---
+
+## Translation Decision Rules
+
+When you have a SQL expression to translate, apply these rules in order:
+
+1. **`GROUP BY` aggregation** → FIXED LOD with the GROUP BY dimension(s)
+2. **`OVER (PARTITION BY ... ORDER BY ...)` window function** → table calc with Compute Using set to the partition dimension
+3. **Scalar expression** (cast, string concat, date math, CASE) → equivalent scalar function
+4. **`NTILE(k)` exact equal-count buckets** → LOD PERCENTILE cutoff pattern
+5. **`NTILE(k)` approximate equal-width buckets** → range-mapping formula above
+6. **`LAG`/`LEAD`** → `LOOKUP()` table calc; remember to set Compute Using to the ordering field
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Default to FIXED LOD over table calc for GROUP BY translations.** FIXED matches GROUP BY semantics exactly — result depends only on the FIXED dimensions, not on the current view layout. Table calcs are layout-dependent and can break when views are modified.
+- **Use `ZN()` for `COALESCE(x, 0)`.** It's idiomatic and the Tableau query optimizer recognizes it.
+- **Use `DATEDIFF` and `DATEADD` for date math.** Explicit unit parameters (`'day'`, `'month'`) handle edge cases correctly.
+- **Break complex nested LODs into named intermediate fields.** A `{FIXED [Customer] : MAX([Order Date])}` is clearer as a field named `[Last Order Date per Customer]` that is then referenced in downstream calculations.
+- **Set Compute Using explicitly for all table calc translations.** The default Compute Using is often wrong — always right-click the table calc field → Edit Table Calculation and verify the partitioning.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Using `NTILE` range-mapping and assuming equal-count buckets.** Range-mapping yields equal-width. Use the LOD PERCENTILE pattern for true equal-count.
+2. **Translating a `PARTITION BY` window function to a FIXED LOD when table calc semantics are needed.** `SUM(x) OVER (PARTITION BY y)` is a running window — it should be a table calc, not a FIXED LOD.
+3. **Forgetting Compute Using for LAG/LEAD.** `LOOKUP(SUM([X]), -1)` without setting Compute Using lags along the wrong dimension — usually table-down instead of the date dimension.
+4. **Using caption names in formulas instead of the actual field names.** Field names in Tableau are what appears in the Data pane. If a field was renamed in the Data pane, use the renamed version.
+5. **Forgetting to guard divide-by-zero in range-mapping.** `NULLIF(denominator, 0)` prevents errors when all values are identical (range = 0).
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+This is a classification workflow, not a transcription exercise:
+
+1. **Classify the SQL construct** using the two questions above — stable aggregate (`GROUP BY`) vs. positional window (`OVER`) vs. plain scalar.
+2. **Choose the Tableau primitive from that class** — `FIXED` LOD, table calc, or scalar function — before worrying about exact syntax.
+3. **Resolve the semantic forks** — equal-count vs. equal-width for `NTILE`; entity grain vs. transaction grain for any aggregate-of-aggregate.
+4. **Look up the exact function and Compute Using** in `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/sql-translation`, naming intermediate LODs for clarity.
+5. **Validate against the source.** Build a side-by-side comparison so the translated calc's totals and breakdowns match the original SQL before relying on it.

+# Audience Budgets & Question Prioritization
+
+Two quantitative scoping tools for the *start* of a dashboard request: a **time/complexity budget per audience** (hard guardrails on filter count, chart complexity, and glance time) and a **P1–P4 question-priority triage** (which questions earn which real estate). These convert the qualitative archetype decision into numeric constraints you can hold a design to — and into a rule for what goes on page one versus behind an interaction.
+
+Tags: audience, time-budget, question-prioritization, scoping, filter-count, dashboard-design, triage
+
+**Related strategy:** pick the *shape* first with `expertise://tableau/strategy/dashboard-design/dashboard-archetypes` (strategic / operational / analytical) — this file adds the *numbers* to that shape. When a dashboard exceeds its budget, `expertise://tableau/strategy/dashboard-design/dashboard-overload` is the split-and-defer remedy; `expertise://tableau/strategy/dashboard-design/dashboard-content-placement-strategy` covers where on the canvas the P1/P2 zones go.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine, scope
+- In-scope reason: At the start of a dashboard request, this gives the agent numeric guardrails (how many filters, how complex, how long to read) tied to the audience, and a triage for which questions belong on the first screen — so a dashboard is scoped to its reader instead of accreting every requested chart.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: audience, time-budget, question-prioritization, scoping, filter-count, dashboard-design, triage, p1-p4, exec-dashboard, analyst-dashboard, progressive-disclosure
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how many filters is too many", "dashboard for executives", "how much detail for an analyst", "what goes on the first screen", "my dashboard has too many charts", "prioritize dashboard content", "which questions go on the dashboard", "exec vs analyst dashboard", "scope a dashboard", "time budget dashboard", "how complex should this dashboard be"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this at the *scoping* stage, right after you've picked the archetype and before you place a single chart:
+- **A stakeholder hands you a long list of "can you also show…" requests** — triage them P1–P4 so page one stays focused.
+- **You need to justify saying "not on this screen"** to a request that would blow the audience's budget.
+- **Deciding how many filters/charts is defensible** for this reader.
+- **A dashboard already feels crowded** and you need an objective basis to cut or defer.
+
+This is the numeric layer on top of the archetype taxonomy — it does not replace it. Choose strategic vs. operational vs. analytical first (`dashboard-archetypes`); then apply the budget and triage below.
+
+---
+
+## Audience Time & Complexity Budgets
+
+Each audience reads for a different length of time and tolerates a different complexity. Treat these as **guardrails, not laws** — but a design that violates its audience's budget needs an explicit reason.
+
+| Audience | Glance/read budget | Max visible filters | Chart complexity | Interaction model | KPI priority |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| **Executive** | 5–30 sec | 0–2 | Low — BANs, trend, bullet | Scan; maybe one date/region filter | Critical — the headline *is* the dashboard |
+| **Manager** | 30 sec–3 min | 2–4 | Medium — add ranking, breakdown | Light filtering + drill to detail | High — KPIs plus the "why" one level down |
+| **Analyst / power user** | 3–15 min | 4–8 | High — scatter, heatmap, cohort, drill | Heavy — filters, parameters, set/param actions | Context — KPIs frame the exploration, aren't the point |
+| **Operations** | continuous, act in seconds | 1–3 | Medium, ruthlessly prioritized to actionable | Alert + light triage drill | High — status, not history |
+| **External / public** | 10–60 sec | 0–2 | Low, plain-language | Minimal, self-explanatory | High — one clear message |
+
+**How to use the budget:**
+- **Filters over budget → convert or defer.** More than the audience's max means either the wrong archetype (an analyst tool handed to an exec) or that some filters belong in a drill/detail view reached by a Navigation button, not on the main screen.
+- **Complexity over budget → split or promote.** An exec dashboard that needs a cohort heatmap is really two dashboards: a strategic glance and an analytical companion.
+- **Reading time is the sanity check.** If the design can't be *read* (not exhaustively explored) inside the budget, the hero metric isn't prominent enough — fix prominence before adding anything. Pairs with the 5-second test in `dashboard-archetypes`.
+
+---
+
+## Question Prioritization: the P1–P4 Triage
+
+A dashboard rarely fails because a chart is wrong — it fails because *every* question got equal real estate. Rank each business question the dashboard is asked to answer, then place it by rank:
+
+| Tier | The question is… | Placement |
+|---|---|---|
+| **P1** | Decision-critical — a viewer acts on it *every* time they open the dashboard | Page one, above the fold, top-left / hero position |
+| **P2** | Monitoring — watched regularly, doesn't always trigger action | Page one, below the P1 zone |
+| **P3** | Diagnostic — asked *only when* a P1/P2 reveals a problem ("why is this down?") | Page two, or behind a drill / Dynamic Zone Visibility / filter action |
+| **P4** | Reference — occasional context, definitions, footnotes | Appendix page, tooltip, or a collapsible detail zone |
+
+**The one rule that matters:** **never let P3/P4 crowd P1/P2 on page one.** Diagnostic and reference content is where progressive disclosure earns its keep — it appears *when summoned* by an interaction, not by default. The most common overload cause is a diagnostic breakdown (P3) sitting permanently next to the headline KPI (P1), so neither reads.
+
+**How to run the triage:**
+1. List every question the dashboard is asked to answer (from the request, not from the charts you imagined).
+2. Tag each P1–P4 by the test above — *acted on every time* (P1) vs. *only when a problem shows* (P3).
+3. Give P1 the hero position, stack P2 below it, and route P3/P4 behind an interaction or onto a second page.
+4. If there are more than ~2–3 P1s, the dashboard is trying to answer too many decision-critical questions — that's a signal to split it, not to shrink the charts.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. **Pick the archetype** (`dashboard-archetypes`) — strategic / operational / analytical — which sets the audience.
+2. **Look up the audience budget** and treat its filter/complexity/time numbers as the design's guardrails.
+3. **Triage the questions P1–P4** against the actual request; assign each a zone by rank.
+4. **Lay out P1 hero, P2 below, P3/P4 deferred** — progressive disclosure via Navigation button, Dynamic Zone Visibility, or a second page for anything P3+.
+5. **Check the design back against the budget** — count visible filters, estimate read time, confirm complexity fits. Over budget → convert filters to drill, split the dashboard, or promote the analytical part to its own surface.
+6. **Verify with the 5-second test** — show it briefly and confirm the viewer recalls the P1 answer, not a P3 detail.
+
+### Confirmed example
+
+Request: an executive sales dashboard, but stakeholders also asked for a rep-level activity breakdown, a data-dictionary, and a churn-driver analysis.
+
+- **Archetype:** strategic → **Executive budget:** 0–2 filters, low complexity, 5–30 sec read.
+- **Triage:** "Are we on track to target?" = **P1** (hero KPI strip + trend). "How are regions tracking?" = **P2** (a bar below). "Why is West down?" (churn drivers) = **P3** — *not* on page one; behind a Navigation button to an analytical companion. Rep-level activity = **P3** (drill). Data-dictionary = **P4** (tooltip / appendix).
+- **Result:** page one holds one date filter, a KPI strip (P1), and a regional bar (P2) — inside budget. The churn/rep/dictionary content, which would have blown both the filter count and the read-time budget, is deferred. The exec gets a 10-second glance; the analyst who needs "why" clicks through.
+
+**What does NOT work:**
+- **Putting the P3 diagnostic next to the P1 KPI "so it's all in one place"** — it crowds the headline and blows the exec's read-time budget; defer it behind an interaction.
+- **Exposing 6 filters on an exec dashboard** — over the 0–2 budget; it signals the wrong archetype or that filtering belongs in a drill view.
+- **Treating the budget as a hard cap with no exceptions** — a manager dashboard can justify a 5th filter *with a reason*; the budget forces the justification, it doesn't forbid the filter.
+- **Triaging by chart instead of by question** — rank the *questions* the dashboard answers, then let that decide the charts; ranking charts you already drew just rationalizes the crowding.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Archetype first, then numbers.** The budget only makes sense once you know who reads it; pick the shape, then hold it to the audience's filter/complexity/time guardrails.
+- **Rank questions, not charts.** P1–P4 is a triage of the *questions*; the charts follow from the ranking.
+- **P3/P4 is progressive-disclosure territory.** Diagnostic and reference content appears when summoned, never crowds page one.
+- **Use the budget to justify "no."** A filter count or complexity level over budget is the objective basis for deferring or splitting — it turns a taste argument into a scoping rule.
+- **More than 2–3 P1s means split, not shrink.** Too many decision-critical questions is a signal for a second dashboard, not smaller charts.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Equal real estate for every question** — the root cause of overload; P3/P4 sitting permanently beside P1/P2.
+2. **Over-budget filters** — handing an exec an analyst's 6-filter control panel.
+3. **Ranking charts instead of questions** — rationalizing the charts you already built rather than triaging what the dashboard must answer.
+4. **Ignoring the read-time budget** — a "glance" dashboard that takes two minutes to parse because the hero metric isn't prominent.
+5. **Treating budgets as absolute** — the numbers are guardrails that *force a justification*, not hard prohibitions; a defended exception is fine, an undefended overage is not.

+- Source/evidence type: community-adapted best practice
+- Source: Audience time/complexity budgets and the P1–P4 question-prioritization triage adapted from `adammico-lab/Tableau-Dashboard-Blueprint-BETA` (Adam Mico, Apache 2.0), curated to house format and de-branded. Deliberately scoped to the two frameworks the existing `dashboard-archetypes` module lacks (quantified guardrails; question triage); the source's chart-selection, color, and container guidance was excluded as already covered.

+# Dashboard Archetypes & Build Blueprints
+
+The strategy layer above dashboard mechanics: which kind of dashboard to build for a given purpose and audience, and how to compose a complex one end-to-end.
+
+Sources are Stephen Few (*Information Dashboard Design*) for the purpose-driven taxonomy and Wexler/Shaffer/Cotgreave (*The Big Book of Dashboards*) for worked recipes.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude decide which dashboard archetype fits the user's purpose/audience and compose it, so the dashboard matches how it will actually be used instead of defaulting to one shape for every request.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none (Cloud/Server features — Pulse, Bridge, Data Alerts, Subscriptions — are noted only as "where this leads," not as Desktop authoring steps)
+- Tags: dashboard-archetypes, strategic, operational, analytical, dashboard-design, build-blueprints, few, dashboard-mistakes, audience
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "build an executive dashboard", "KPI dashboard", "what kind of dashboard should I build", "operational monitoring dashboard", "what-if scenario dashboard", "cohort retention dashboard", "funnel dashboard", "dashboard for executives vs analysts", "my dashboard is too cluttered", "dashboard design mistakes"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide at the *start* of a dashboard request, before choosing charts or layout — when you need to decide whether the user needs a calm executive glance, a real-time operational monitor, or a dense analytical explorer, and how to compose it. Choosing the wrong archetype (burying an exec's glance under an analyst's drill controls) is the root of most bad dashboards. For layout/container/sizing mechanics see [Dashboard Sizing, Containers & Layout Examples](data/knowledge/tactics/dashboard/dashboard-layout-structure.md) and [Dashboard zones (tactical XML)](data/knowledge/tactics/dashboard/zones.md); for performance tuning see [Dashboard Performance & Efficient Workbooks](data/knowledge/tactics/data/dashboard-performance-efficient-workbooks.md).
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### The three archetypes — a purpose-driven taxonomy
+
+A dashboard's **purpose** dictates almost every design decision. Few names three roles; conflating them is the most common failure.
+
+| | **Strategic** | **Operational** | **Analytical / Exploratory** |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **Who reads it** | Executives, directors — steer, don't operate | Front-line ops, support, dispatch — act *now* | Analysts, power users — investigate |
+| **Question** | "Are we on track against our goals?" | "Is anything wrong right now, and what do I do?" | "Why did this happen? What if we changed X?" |
+| **Cadence** | Periodic (monthly/quarterly), reviewed in a meeting | Real-time, watched continuously | On-demand, opened for one ad-hoc question |
+| **Density** | Low — a few high-level KPIs with context | Moderate, ruthlessly prioritized to what's actionable | High — many marks, fine granularity |
+| **Interaction** | Minimal — glance, maybe one filter | Alerting + light triage drill | Rich — filters, parameters, set/parameter actions, drill |
+| **Chart vocabulary** | BANs + sparklines, bullet graphs (actual-vs-target), trend lines | Real-time line/area, Top-N offenders, status map, Pareto | Scatter, heatmap, cohort matrix, funnel, box plot, drill bar/line |
+
+**Strategic** (executive/KPI monitoring): maximize signal, minimize ink. One screen, no scroll. A KPI strip of BANs with context (prior period, target, trend) — never a naked number. Calm palette, gray default + one accent for the metric that's off-track. Interaction intentionally thin; drilling belongs in an analytical companion reached by a Navigation button. *(For execs who rarely open Tableau, the modern equivalent is often **Tableau Pulse** — a Cloud-governed metrics layer that pushes insights by email/Slack. Pulse is a Cloud feature, out of scope for Desktop authoring; flag it as an alternative, don't build it here.)*
+
+**Operational** (monitoring/alerting/action): make *what needs attention* unmissable and *what to do* obvious. Status, not history — Top-N offenders, a live trend, a map of where the problem is. Color reserved for status, never color-alone (pair with shape/label). *(Freshness mechanics — live connections, Tableau Bridge, Data Alerts, Subscriptions — are Cloud/Server features; the Desktop authoring job is the design: prioritized status views, relative-date framing, a triage filter action from an alarm row to the detail.)*
+
+**Analytical/exploratory** (drill/comparison/what-if): density is a feature. Many marks, fine granularity, side-by-side comparison — the one type where scroll, tabs, and drill are legitimate. Decide first whether you're shipping an *exploratory* surface (all controls exposed) or an *explanatory* guided path (most controls hidden, one story) — most failed analytical dashboards are exploratory artifacts shipped as if explanatory. Drill toolbox: parameter actions + Dynamic Zone Visibility, set actions for select-to-compare, Viz in Tooltip. What-if is the signature move: a parameter drives a calc and the user dials a scenario live. Watch the mark budget (>1000 marks can force server-side rendering — slow and bad for accessibility).
+
+**Hybrids are the real world.** Almost every production dashboard mixes types: a strategic KPI strip on top (glance) over operational/analytical detail below (act/investigate), with progressive disclosure so complexity only appears when summoned. Name which archetype *each zone* serves and design that zone's density and interaction to its role.
+
+### Few's 13 dashboard mistakes → the Tableau fix
+
+| # | Mistake | Tableau fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| 1 | Exceeding a single screen | Fixed-size dashboard sized to the display; cut to 2–3 views; push detail behind DZV/Show-Hide/Navigation rather than scroll |
+| 2 | Inadequate context for the data | Reference Lines/Bands for target/prior/average; YoY % delta beside a BAN; pair KPIs with bullet graphs |
+| 3 | Excessive detail or precision | Format ▸ Numbers → fewer decimals; abbreviate K/M/B; round in a calc |
+| 4 | A deficient measure | Choose the measure tied to the objective; state its unit; prefer a rate over a raw count where meaningful |
+| 5 | Inappropriate display media | Override Show Me's pie/gauge; time→line, ranking→sorted bar, part-to-whole→bar, actual-vs-target→bullet |
+| 6 | Meaningless variety | Reuse one chart type for like data; consistent palette + mark type (Gestalt similarity) |
+| 7 | Poorly designed display media | Label marks directly; sort logically; use color sparingly; never 3-D |
+| 8 | Encoding quantitative data inaccurately | Bars must include zero (don't uncheck "Include zero"); lines may use a non-zero baseline *if labeled* |
+| 9 | Arranging the data poorly | Most important view upper-left; align comparisons with synchronized axes; nest containers for a clear grid |
+| 10 | Highlighting important data ineffectively | Gray default + one accent via a boolean color calc; Highlight Actions; bolder text on the key BAN |
+| 11 | Cluttering with useless decoration | Format ▸ Lines/Borders/Shading = None/pale; remove logos/3-D/gradients that don't encode data |
+| 12 | Misusing or overusing color | Gray default; one accent hue for attention; sequential for ordered, categorical (≤~7 hues) for nominal; never color-alone |
+| 13 | An unattractive visual display | Consistent alignment/padding, restrained palette, quiet background, generous white space |
+
+### Six build blueprints
+
+Each gives the question, archetype, sheet inventory, layout, and interactivity. Chart construction (BAN, bullet, sparkline, Pareto, funnel) is the viz-building layer; this is the composition.
+
+**(a) Executive KPI / BAN summary** — *strategic.* "Are we hitting our top-line goals, and where are we off-track?" 4–6 BAN tiles (big number + YoY % delta + ▲/▼ colored by direction), a sparkline beside each, one bullet graph per KPI (actual-vs-target, two qualitative bands). Layout: top Horizontal container = KPI strip (Distribute Evenly); Horizontal row of bullets below; footer Text (source + as-of date). Fixed size. Interaction: one date/region filter + a Navigation button to the analytical companion. Gray default, one accent on the off-track metric (`[Actual]<[Target]`).
+
+**(b) Sales/revenue operational monitor** — *operational (often hybrid).* "How is the pipeline tracking, who are the top/bottom performers, where is revenue concentrated?" KPI strip; a Top-N sorted bar (driven by an N parameter); a Pareto chart (cumulative % to find the 80/20); a region map; a detail crosstab. Layout: Vertical root → [KPI strip] → [Top-N + Pareto] → [Map + detail]. Interaction: Filter Action from the map to the Top-N and detail ("Use as Filter"); N parameter control. Pareto needs a Running Total + Percent of Total table calc with Compute Using set explicitly — the #1 Pareto failure mode.
+
+**(c) Cohort / retention explorer** — *analytical.* "Which cohorts retain, how does retention decay, which segment drives it?" A cohort heatmap (cohort month on Rows, months-since-signup on Columns, retention % as color); a retention-curve line; a segment bar; a drill panel revealed on demand. Interaction: parameter action + DZV to reveal the drill zone on cell click; set action to select-to-compare two cohorts; Viz in Tooltip for segment mix. Cohort math (months-since-signup, retained-%) is an LOD/table-calc problem — see the [LOD & Table-Calc Pattern Cookbook](data/knowledge/tactics/data/lod-and-table-calc-patterns.md).
+
+**(d) Funnel / conversion** — *analytical, presented explanatory.* "Where are we losing users, and how does drop-off differ by channel?" A centered funnel (stage on Rows, count as length, symmetry from a `-[Measure]` field + Area marks — not a built-in funnel type); a stage-to-stage conversion-rate bar; a channel small-multiple; BANs for top-of-funnel volume and overall conversion %. Label each stage with absolute count *and* step conversion % (context, mistake #2). Order stages logically top-to-bottom.
+
+**(e) Geospatial operational** — *operational.* "Where are incidents/outages/deliveries, and which sites need attention?" A status map (symbol or filled, colored by status + shape/label, never color-alone); a Top-N "worst sites" list; a live incident-volume trend; a selected-site detail table. Layout: map dominates (~60% left); right Vertical = worst-sites + trend + detail. Interaction: Filter Action from a map mark to the detail; Highlight Action to keep the site lit; `tel:`/`sms:` URL Actions for field staff on mobile.
+
+**(f) What-if scenario** — *analytical (what-if).* "If we change price/growth/headcount by X, what happens to revenue/margin/runway?" A driver line/area chart (projection under the scenario); a sensitivity bar/tornado; scenario-output BANs on top so the headline answer is always visible. The core is **parameters**, not Actions: one parameter per driver (Allowable values = Range or List), referenced in a calculated field that recomputes the projection. State the scenario assumptions in a Text object (mistake #2) and show a baseline reference line so the delta from "do nothing" is visible.
+
+### The 5-second test
+
+Show the dashboard to a representative viewer for ~5 seconds, take it away, and ask what they remember and where their eyes went first. If the hero metric isn't what they recall, fix prominence (size, position top-left, the lone accent) before adding anything. The audience, not the author, judges whether it reads.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- Building one dashboard shape for every request — a dense analyst drill handed to an executive who needs a glance, or a calm KPI board handed to ops who need live alerting.
+- Shipping an exploratory surface (every control exposed) when the audience needed an explanatory, guided one.
+- Treating Cloud/Server features (Pulse, Bridge, Data Alerts, Subscriptions) as Desktop authoring steps — they're where an operational/strategic design *leads*, not something authored in Desktop.
+- Naked KPIs with no target/prior/benchmark context (Few's mistake #2 — the most common).
+- Ignoring the mark budget on analytical dashboards (>1000 marks forces server-side rendering — slow, non-accessible).
+
+## Implementation
+
+Start by naming the purpose and audience, then pick the archetype (or, for a hybrid, name the archetype each *zone* serves). Match density and interaction to that role: strategic stays at one screen with minimal interaction; operational prioritizes actionable status; analytical earns its density but should decide exploratory-vs-explanatory up front. Pick the closest build blueprint as a starting skeleton, compose it with tiled containers (hero view upper-left), then run the 13-mistakes list and the 5-second test before shipping. Verify the result in Tableau for readability and that the intended audience reaches the true conclusion.

+# Dashboard Content Placement Strategy
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau users building dashboards
+- Authoring outcome improved: Dashboard layout planning — reduces cognitive overload, improves visual hierarchy, and prevents the "everything on one screen" trap
+- In-scope reason: Directly improves how users structure and design Tableau dashboards
+- Out-of-scope risk: Not a general UX or design theory guide — guidance is scoped to Tableau canvas decisions
+- Tags: dashboard, layout, content placement, cognitive load, whitespace, visual hierarchy, data-to-ink, one-screen, navigation, canvas planning
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "where to place the most important chart", "dashboard feels overwhelming", "too many charts on one screen", "F-pattern or Z-pattern layout", "how viewers scan dashboards", "BAN placement best practice", "dashboard scrolling vs one screen", "primary insight location", "cognitive overload dashboard", "whitespace in layout"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when a Tableau user is planning or building a dashboard and needs to decide what goes where — which visualization gets the most space, how to sequence content, and when the layout has become too crowded to be useful.
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Tableau users designing dashboards from scratch
+- Users reorganizing an existing dashboard that feels cluttered or unfocused
+- Any situation where the user is asking "how many charts should I put on this dashboard?" or "why does my dashboard feel overwhelming?"
+
+## Visual Attention Patterns
+
+Understanding how viewers scan a dashboard informs where to place what. Two complementary frameworks apply — one from design theory, one from empirical research.
+
+### F-Pattern (empirically confirmed for dashboards)
+
+Tableau's 2016 eye tracking study (n=113, 10 dashboards, 10-second naïve viewing) confirmed that viewers scan dashboards in an F-pattern: strong attention to the top row, then down the left edge, with decreasing horizontal reach as they move down. The data:
+
+- Upper-left: first fixation in ~1.1 seconds on average
+- Upper-right: first fixation in ~4.7 seconds
+- Bottom-right: first fixation in ~6.3 seconds — the last place eyes reach
+
+**Implication**: The upper-left is prime real estate. Critical content placed in the bottom-right will be the last thing a viewer sees — and may not be seen at all in a brief viewing.
+
+The F-pattern is a strong default, not an unbreakable rule. A dashboard with a deliberate physical form (triangular, columnar, grid) will guide eyes to follow that form instead. Viewers look at where the information is, not at empty space.
+
+### Z-Pattern / Quadrant Placement (Stephen Few)
+
+The Z-pattern (Stephen Few's quadrant placement framework) maps four quadrants to a reading order that follows the diagonal of a Z: top-left → top-right → bottom-left → bottom-right. This is a design-intent framework — a prescription for *where to put things* rather than a description of how eyes actually scan.
+
+Use the quadrant model to assign content intentionally:
+
+| Quadrant | Content Role |
+|---|---|
+| Top-left | Primary insight — the single most important answer |
+| Top-right | Context or comparison for the primary insight |
+| Bottom-left | Supporting breakdown or secondary question |
+| Bottom-right | Detail, reference, or least-critical content |
+
+The F-pattern research validates this approach: the upper-left gets the most attention fastest, and the bottom-right gets the least. The quadrant model gives a planning tool; the eye tracking data explains why it works.
+
+### Element Attention Hierarchy
+
+The eye tracking study identified a hierarchy of which dashboard elements attract attention (measured by time to first fixation) and hold it (measured by fixation duration):
+
+| Element | Attraction (fast = high) | Dwell time | Design implication |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Titles | Fastest (~2.7 sec) | Low-moderate | Viewers read titles — make them informative, not decorative |
+| BANs (Big Numbers) | Second fastest | Short | Short dwell is fine — BANs should be understood at a glance |
+| Lines (sparklines, trend lines) | Moderate | Short | Good for trend signal, low retention |
+| Icons & Logos | Moderate-slow | Short | Recognized quickly, not studied |
+| Maps | Slowest | Longest (~1 sec) | Maps hold attention once found — but viewers take time to get there |
+
+**BANs can break the F-pattern.** A BAN placed in the bottom-left still drew fast fixations even against the natural scan direction. BANs are the one element type strong enough to pull eyes out of sequence.
+
+**Maps command attention once found, but are slow to attract it.** Placing a map in the bottom-right risks it being the last element viewers reach. If the map is the primary insight, move it higher.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Start with the primary question.** Before placing anything, identify the single most important question the dashboard must answer. The visualization that answers that question gets the most prominent position — upper-left or upper-center — and the most real estate.
+
+2. **Use the quadrant model to assign content before building.** Map content to quadrants: primary insight top-left, supporting context top-right, secondary breakdown bottom-left, detail bottom-right. This is Stephen Few's quadrant placement principle. Build the layout structure first, then drop visualizations in.
+
+3. **Layer supporting content around the primary visual.** Secondary visualizations should support or contextualize the primary insight. Tertiary detail (breakdowns, filters, reference data) goes below or to the side. Think in tiers: primary → supporting → detail.
+
+4. **Treat whitespace as a design element, not wasted space.** Empty space gives the viewer's eye room to rest and signals separation between logical groups. The eye tracking study confirmed that balanced dashboards with clear whitespace around each element received distributed attention across the whole canvas — unbalanced dashboards with equal-weight elements received concentrated attention at the top only. Build whitespace in deliberately.
+
+5. **Vary element types to sustain attention.** When a dashboard repeats the same chart type across a row or column (e.g., four identical KPI panels), viewer attention wanes from left to right and top to bottom. The first panel gets the most attention; subsequent ones get progressively less. Use visual variety — mix BANs, line charts, and bar charts — to keep viewers engaged across the full dashboard.
+
+6. **Use high-contrast elements as guideposts, not decoration.** The eye tracking data showed viewers' eyes jumping from one high-contrast element to the next during early viewing. Used sparingly, high-contrast elements (bold numbers, strong colors, clear titles) create a logical visual path. Used abundantly, they create visual noise with no clear path.
+
+7. **Manage cognitive load through element count.** There is no universal maximum, but the question to ask is: how many things is the viewer being asked to process at once? Every additional chart, filter, label, and legend adds to that load. When adding a new element, ask what it replaces or what it earns its place over.
+
+8. **Keep the dashboard to one screen.** A dashboard that requires scrolling to see all content is no longer "one dashboard" — it is a scrolling report. Design for the target screen size and resist the urge to push content below the fold.
+
+9. **Use data-to-ink discipline.** Every mark, gridline, border, and label should earn its place by communicating information. Remove chart junk — unnecessary gridlines, redundant axis labels, decorative borders — before worrying about layout.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Say no when the user wants to keep adding content to a dashboard that is already at capacity.
+
+Recommended wording:
+
+> "This dashboard is doing a lot of work already. If we add more here, we risk losing the viewer before they get to the important parts. Let's look at what this dashboard's primary question is — anything that doesn't directly answer that question is a candidate for a separate view or a drill-through."
+
+Offer this instead:
+
+- Break the dashboard into multiple focused dashboards connected by navigation actions
+- Move detail and breakdown content to a secondary dashboard that users can navigate to from the primary
+- Use a filter or parameter to let users toggle between views rather than showing everything simultaneously
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **No primary visual.** All charts are the same size in a uniform grid. The viewer has no entry point and no sense of what matters most. Fix: give the primary insight 40-60% of the canvas.
+
+2. **Filling all available space.** Treating blank canvas as a problem to solve leads to cramming. Whitespace is not failure — it is design. Fix: deliberately leave padding around containers and between logical groups.
+
+3. **Scrolling dashboards.** Adding enough content that the dashboard requires vertical scrolling breaks the one-screen contract. The viewer loses context as they scroll. Fix: if content doesn't fit comfortably at the target resolution, split it across multiple dashboards with navigation.
+
+4. **Repeating the same chart type across a row or column.** Eye tracking confirmed attention wanes left-to-right and top-to-bottom through repetitive elements — the first panel gets full attention, subsequent ones get progressively less. Fix: vary element types intentionally (BAN for the headline, sparkline for trend, bar for breakdown) so each zone signals "this is different, look again."
+
+5. **Placing the primary insight in the bottom-right.** Bottom-right is the last place viewers look (avg ~6.3 sec to first fixation vs ~1.1 sec for upper-left). In a 10-second executive glance, many viewers never reach it. Fix: apply the quadrant model before building — bottom-right is for detail and reference, never for the primary insight.
+
+6. **Using high-contrast elements everywhere.** High-contrast marks (bold numbers, bright colors, strong borders) naturally guide the eye from one to the next. When everything is high-contrast, there is no path — just noise. Fix: reserve high-contrast treatments for 2-3 focal points per dashboard; let everything else recede.
+
+7. **Placing filters and controls in primary real estate.** Filters are tools, not insights. When a row of dropdown filters occupies the top third of the dashboard, the data is buried. Fix: move filters to a sidebar, a collapsible panel, or a top bar that doesn't compete with the primary visual.
+
+8. **No visual hierarchy.** Charts of equal size, equal weight, and equal color give the viewer no signal about where to start or what matters. Fix: use size, position, and color deliberately to encode importance — the primary visual should be visually dominant.
+
+9. **Ignoring the target screen.** Designing at 1920×1080 and then publishing to users on 1366×768 laptops produces a dashboard that is unreadable at their resolution. Fix: design for the smallest common screen in the audience.
+
+## Implementation
+
+**Canvas planning sequence:**
+
+1. Write the primary question the dashboard must answer before opening Tableau Desktop.
+2. Sketch the quadrant layout: primary insight top-left, supporting context top-right, secondary breakdown bottom-left, reference/detail bottom-right (Stephen Few's quadrant placement model).
+3. Identify the one visualization that answers the primary question — this is your anchor. Place it first, give it the most space.
+4. List the supporting questions. For each, choose the simplest visualization that answers it. Vary chart types to sustain attention across zones.
+5. Place filter and control elements last, in a sidebar or top bar.
+6. Review the layout at the target screen resolution before adding anything else. If it already feels full, stop adding.
+
+**Checking cognitive load:**
+
+- Count the number of distinct things a viewer must process: charts + filters + legends + labels. If the count exceeds ~7 primary elements, the dashboard is likely overloaded.
+- Ask: "If a viewer had 10 seconds, what would they take away?" If the answer is "nothing clear," the layout needs simplification.
+
+**Deciding when to split:**
+
+- Scrollbars appear → split required.
+- Any chart is unreadable at normal viewing distance → split required.
+- The dashboard answers more than one primary question → split required, one dashboard per question.

+# Dashboard Layout, Actions & Navigation
+
+Strategy for composing a dashboard — when to use tiled vs floating, how to structure layout containers, which action type fits the interaction, and navigation/control placement decisions.
+
+Tags: dashboards, layout-containers, actions, navigation, parameters
+
+**Tactics companion:** `expertise://tableau/tactics/dashboard/zones` — the zone/action/viewpoint XML mechanics for this topic.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine, interact
+- In-scope reason: This guides Claude when composing dashboards by helping decide between tiled versus floating layouts, which action type fits user interaction needs, and where to place controls.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: dashboards, layout-containers, actions, navigation, parameters, tiled-vs-floating, filter-action, highlight-action, go-to-sheet, parameter-action, sidebar, padding, sizing-mode, button
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "tiled vs floating layout", "filter action not working", "highlight dims everything", "navigation button between dashboards", "parameter action on click", "sidebar filter placement", "dashboard size fixed or automatic", "layout container horizontal vertical", "apply filter to selected sheets", "go to sheet action setup"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+- **A customer is building a dashboard** and needs layout, sizing, or action configuration help
+- **Setting up filter actions or highlight actions** between worksheets
+- **Adding navigation buttons** to move between dashboards
+- **Configuring parameter actions** that respond to user clicks
+- **Explaining the difference between tiled and floating layouts**
+
+For the design strategy behind layout choices (Z-pattern, BAN rows, sidebar filters), see `data/knowledge/strategy/dashboard-design/dashboard-layout-patterns.md`.
+
+---
+
+## Dashboard Layout Modes
+
+Tableau dashboards support two layout modes:
+
+| Mode | Behavior | When to use |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Tiled** | Objects snap to a grid; containers enforce alignment automatically | Default; recommended for most dashboards |
+| **Floating** | Objects placed at arbitrary x/y positions; can overlap | Annotations, logos, show/hide panels that overlay content |
+
+**Use Tiled for all structural layout.** Floating elements are fragile — they don't reflow when the dashboard resizes and can overlap tiled content unexpectedly. Only float objects that intentionally overlay (like a tooltip panel or a decorative logo).
+
+To switch an object from tiled to floating: hold Shift while dragging it, or use the dropdown menu on the object.
+
+---
+
+## Layout Containers
+
+Layout containers control how child objects are arranged:
+
+| Container | Behavior |
+|---|---|
+| **Horizontal** | Arranges children side-by-side |
+| **Vertical** | Stacks children top to bottom |
+| **Tiled (auto)** | Tableau creates containers automatically based on where you drop objects |
+
+**Distribute evenly:** right-click a layout container → **Distribute Contents Evenly** — makes all children equal width (horizontal) or equal height (vertical). Useful for BAN rows.
+
+**Fixed vs. flexible size:** select a container or object → Layout pane (left sidebar) → set a fixed width or height, or leave it flexible. Sidebar filter containers should typically have a fixed width (~250px) to hold their size as the dashboard resizes.
+
+---
+
+## Padding and Spacing
+
+Dashboard padding is set via the Layout pane when an object or container is selected:
+
+| Setting | Meaning |
+|---|---|
+| **Inner padding** | Space inside the container, between the container border and its contents |
+| **Outer padding** | Space between this container and its siblings |
+
+Recommended values: inner 8px for content containers, outer 0px (let the parent handle spacing).
+
+**Using blank objects as spacers:** drag a Blank object from the Objects panel onto the dashboard to create fixed-size gaps between content. Useful for precise pixel-level control that padding alone can't achieve.
+
+---
+
+## Dashboard Size
+
+Set via **Dashboard menu → Dashboard Size**.
+
+| Mode | Description | Use case |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Fixed** | Exact width and height | Presentations, kiosks, PDF export |
+| **Automatic** | Resizes to fill the container | Embedded in web apps |
+| **Range** | Min/max width and height bounds | Responsive layouts |
+| **Vertical Scroll** | Fixed width, scroll vertically | Multi-chart dashboards with more content than viewport |
+
+For multi-chart dashboards with 4+ views, use **Vertical Scroll** to prevent charts from being squished. Reserve Fixed for simple 1-3 chart dashboards where all content fits in the viewport.
+
+---
+
+## Dashboard Actions
+
+Actions let users interact with the dashboard — selecting a mark in one view can filter, highlight, or update other views.
+
+### Filter Action
+
+Filters target worksheets based on a mark selection.
+
+**Create:** Dashboard menu → Actions → Add Action → Filter
+
+Key settings:
+- **Source sheets:** which sheets trigger the action (on hover or on select)
+- **Target sheets:** which sheets get filtered
+- **Fields to filter:** All Fields (recommended for simplicity) or specific fields
+- **Clearing the selection:** Show all values, Exclude all values, or Leave the filter
+
+**"All Fields" approach:** Tableau automatically matches fields with the same name between the source and target. This is the simplest setup and handles most cases.
+
+### Highlight Action
+
+Dims all marks except those matching the selection in the source sheet.
+
+**Create:** Dashboard menu → Actions → Add Action → Highlight
+
+Highlight actions work best when all views share the same datasource and have a common dimension. They are non-destructive — they don't remove data from any view, just dim non-matching marks.
+
+### Go To Sheet / URL Action
+
+Navigates to another dashboard or worksheet, or opens an external URL.
+
+**Create:** Dashboard menu → Actions → Add Action → Go to Sheet (or URL)
+
+Used to build multi-dashboard navigation flows — clicking a row in a summary dashboard navigates to a detail dashboard.
+
+### Parameter Action
+
+Updates a parameter's value based on a user's selection.
+
+**Create:** Dashboard menu → Actions → Add Action → Change Parameter
+
+Key settings:
+- **Source field:** the field on the source sheet whose value sets the parameter
+- **Target parameter:** which parameter to update
+- **Aggregation:** usually Attribute (the single value from the selected mark)
+
+Parameter actions are useful for dynamic control — clicking a category updates a parameter that changes what is shown in another view.
+
+---
+
+## Navigation Buttons
+
+Navigation buttons link dashboards together for multi-page experiences.
+
+**Add a navigation button:**
+1. On the dashboard, drag a **Button** object from the Objects panel onto the canvas
+2. In the Edit Button dialog: set Navigate to a Sheet → select the target dashboard
+3. Style: choose Image or Text button, set the caption
+
+**Button best practices:**
+- Place all navigation buttons consistently — typically at the top or top-right of the dashboard
+- Use the same button style (same font, same background color) across all dashboards for a consistent navigation bar feel
+- The currently-active dashboard's button should look different (use a bold/highlighted state) — configure via Edit Button → Style
+
+---
+
+## Filter and Parameter Controls on Dashboards
+
+### Filter Controls
+
+Drag a worksheet's filter from the Filters shelf onto the dashboard, or:
+- Click the dropdown arrow on a sheet in the dashboard → Filters → select the filter field
+- The control appears as a widget on the dashboard
+
+Configure the control type (single select, multi-select, dropdown, slider) by right-clicking the control → Customize.
+
+Set which worksheets the filter applies to: click the dropdown on the control → Apply to Worksheets → Selected Worksheets / All Using This Data Source.
+
+### Parameter Controls
+
+Right-click a parameter in the Data pane → Show Parameter Control. The control appears on the right side of the sheet — drag it onto the dashboard layout.
+
+Parameter controls are global — they affect all sheets that reference the parameter, regardless of Apply to Worksheets settings.
+
+---
+
+## Dashboard Axis Cleanup
+
+A common polishing step is removing or renaming axis titles on dashboard sheets:
+
+**Remove an axis title:** double-click the axis → Edit Axis → uncheck Show axis title.
+
+**Rename an axis title:** double-click the axis → Edit Axis → type the new title in the Title field. Renaming "SUM(Sales)" to "Revenue" is the most common case.
+
+**Hide field labels:** Format → Field Labels → Rows/Columns → Hide. Removes the "Sub-Category" header row above charts, which is redundant when the axis tick labels already convey the information.
+
+---
+
+## Hiding Worksheets in Dashboards
+
+Sheets used in a dashboard can be hidden from the tab bar so users don't navigate to them directly.
+
+**Hide:** right-click the sheet tab → Hide Sheet. The sheet remains functional inside the dashboard.
+
+**Requirements:** the sheet must be placed on at least one dashboard before it can be hidden.
+
+**Unhide:** Dashboard menu → Unhide Sheets, or right-click the view on the dashboard → Unhide Sheet.
+
+---
+
+## Saving Workbooks
+
+**Save:** Ctrl+S (Windows) / Cmd+S (Mac). If the workbook has never been saved, this opens a Save As dialog.
+
+**Save As:** File → Save As. Use to save to a different location or file name.
+
+**Save to Tableau Server/Cloud:** File → Save to Tableau Server / Save to Tableau Cloud. Prompts for server address and credentials if not already connected.
+
+**Revert to Saved:** File → Revert to Saved. Discards all changes since the last save. Use to recover from a bad editing session.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Always test filter and highlight actions after setup.** Click marks in the source sheet and verify the expected sheets respond. Filter actions with no matching fields silently do nothing.
+- **Use "All Fields" for filter actions unless you need specificity.** Specific-field filter actions require exact field name matches between source and target — easy to break when fields are renamed.
+- **Set a clear selection behavior.** Decide whether clearing a selection shows all data or excludes all data, and be consistent across all filter actions on the dashboard.
+- **Avoid more than 2-3 navigation buttons per dashboard.** Too many navigation options confuse users. Use a simple linear flow (Summary → Detail) or a top-level navigation bar with no more than 5 destinations.
+- **Parameter controls are always global.** If a parameter is shown on multiple dashboards, updating it on one affects all of them — this is usually the desired behavior, but make sure customers understand it.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Filter action not affecting a target sheet.** Check that the target sheet has a field matching the source field (same name, same datasource). Cross-datasource filter actions only work for fields with matching names and the same underlying data.
+2. **Highlight action dimming everything.** If the highlighted field doesn't exist in the target sheet, Tableau dims all marks. Add the highlight field to the target sheet's Detail shelf.
+3. **Parameter action not updating.** Check that the source field's aggregation is set to Attribute (not Sum/Count) — parameter actions need a single value, not an aggregate.
+4. **Navigation button linking to the wrong dashboard.** Verify the button's sheet reference in Edit Button → Navigate to Sheet after renaming any dashboards.
+5. **Filter control applying to unintended sheets.** Check the Apply to Worksheets setting — "All Using This Data Source" applies the filter to every sheet using that datasource, including sheets the designer didn't intend.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+Decide layout and interaction before building: pick the size mode, structure containers for the reading order, choose action types (filter/highlight/navigate) for the intended flow, and place controls where users expect them. For the zone/action XML these decisions produce, see the tactics companion above.

+# Dashboard Layout & Design Strategy
+
+A guide for designing effective Tableau dashboard layouts — covering visual hierarchy, reading patterns, BANs, and filter placement. For sizing modes and container tree structure, see `dashboard-layout-structure.md`.
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude design effective dashboard layouts with sound visual hierarchy when authoring.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: dashboards, layout, visual-hierarchy, bans, design-strategy
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "Z-pattern dashboard layout", "BAN row design", "filter sidebar or top bar", "executive vs analyst dashboard", "how many charts per dashboard", "primary focal point layout", "consistent spacing dashboard", "inverted pyramid layout", "KPI summary dashboard design", "presentation dashboard pattern"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+
+- **Building a new dashboard** from scratch and need to decide on layout structure before adding sheets
+- **Reorganizing an existing dashboard** that feels cluttered or lacks a clear narrative
+- **Designing for a specific audience** (executive summary, analyst deep-dive, presentation/TV display)
+- **Planning BAN/KPI summary dashboards** where headline numbers drive the story
+
+---
+
+## Layout Principles
+
+### Z-Pattern (Western Reading Order)
+
+The eye naturally moves: **top-left > top-right > bottom-left > bottom-right**.
+
+```
+ ┌──────────────┬──────────────┐
+ │  1. KPI / BAN │  2. Trend    │
+ ├──────────────┼──────────────┤
+ │  3. Breakdown │  4. Detail   │
+ └──────────────┴──────────────┘
+```
+
+**Best for**: Executive dashboards, KPI summaries, any dashboard where four distinct views tell a progressive story. Place the single most important insight at position 1.
+
+### F-Pattern (Scanning)
+
+The eye scans horizontally across the top, then drops down the left edge with decreasing horizontal reach.
+
+```
+ ┌─────────────────────────────┐
+ │  Headline / BAN row          │  ← full-width scan
+ ├──────────────┬──────────────┤
+ │  Primary viz  │  Secondary   │  ← shorter scan
+ ├──────────────┤              │
+ │  Detail/table │              │  ← left-biased
+ └──────────────┴──────────────┘
+```
+
+**Best for**: Dashboards with a dominant left-column visualization and supporting right-column context. Works well when the primary chart is a tall time-series or bar chart.
+
+### Inverted Pyramid
+
+Key insight at the top in a full-width zone, progressively more granular data below.
+
+```
+ ┌─────────────────────────────┐
+ │  Key Insight (full width)    │
+ ├──────────┬──────────────────┤
+ │  Segment  │   Segment        │
+ ├────┬─────┼────┬─────────────┤
+ │ D1 │ D2  │ D3 │  D4          │
+ └────┴─────┴────┴─────────────┘
+```
+
+**Best for**: Analytical dashboards where the audience first needs the summary, then wants to drill into supporting segments and detail.
+
+### Choosing a Pattern
+
+| Audience | Recommended Pattern | Reason |
+|----------|-------------------|--------|
+| Executives | Z-pattern or Inverted Pyramid | Quick scan, key number first |
+| Analysts | F-pattern | Deep-dive left column with reference on right |
+| Presentations / TV | Z-pattern (2x2 grid) | Readable at distance, balanced |
+| Embedded / portal | Inverted Pyramid | Works in variable-width containers |
+
+---
+
+## Information Hierarchy
+
+### The Three Tiers
+
+1. **Primary (top-left quadrant)**: The single most important metric or chart. This is what the viewer should see within the first 2 seconds.
+
+2. **Secondary (top-right and bottom-left)**: Supporting context that explains or breaks down the primary insight.
+
+3. **Tertiary (bottom-right or below fold)**: Detail tables, granular filters, legends, footnotes.
+
+### Hierarchy Rules
+
+- **One focal point per dashboard.** If everything is equally prominent, nothing is prominent.
+- **Size encodes importance.** The primary viz should occupy 30-50% of the dashboard area.
+- **Whitespace is a signal.** Extra padding around the primary viz draws the eye toward it.
+- **Filters and controls are not the story.** Place them in a sidebar or thin top bar.
+
+### Visual Weight Techniques
+
+| Technique | Effect |
+|-----------|--------|
+| Larger zone dimensions | Draws attention first |
+| Darker or saturated background behind a zone | Creates visual pop |
+| White container on gray dashboard background | Lifts the element forward |
+| Title with bold/larger font | Anchors the eye |
+| Border or shadow on a container | Separates and emphasizes |
+
+---
+
+## BANs (Big Ass Numbers)
+
+BANs are large-format single numbers displayed prominently — typically KPIs like revenue, count, or percentage change.
+
+### When to Use BANs
+
+- **KPI summary row at the top** of a dashboard (the most common pattern)
+- **Scorecard dashboards** where 4-8 metrics are the entire story
+- **Call-to-action dashboards** where a threshold number drives decisions (e.g., "Orders Pending: 47")
+
+### BAN Design Rules
+
+1. **Font size**: 24-48pt for the number itself. The label/title should be 10-14pt.
+2. **Minimal decoration**: No gridlines, no axes, no borders around the BAN sheet.
+3. **Consistent width**: Each BAN in a row should occupy equal width. Use a horizontal layout container set to distribute evenly.
+4. **Color for meaning**: Green/red for positive/negative delta. Use sparingly — if every BAN is colored, the signal is lost.
+5. **Delta indicators**: Show change vs. prior period as a smaller secondary number or arrow beneath the main figure.
+6. **Alignment**: Center-align both the number and the label within each BAN zone.
+
+### BAN Zone Height
+
+- **80-120px** is the sweet spot. Taller wastes space; shorter makes the number hard to read at a glance.
+- The BAN row should consume no more than 10-15% of total dashboard height.
+
+---
+
+## Filter & Parameter Placement
+
+### Placement Strategies
+
+| Strategy | Layout | Best For |
+|----------|--------|----------|
+| **Right sidebar** | Vertical container, fixed width 200-280px, right edge | Dashboards with 3+ filters |
+| **Top bar** | Horizontal container, fixed height 40-60px, below title | 1-2 compact filters |
+| **Floating** | Overlay, toggled visible/hidden | Rarely used filters |
+| **Left sidebar** | Vertical container, fixed width 200-280px, left edge | Navigation-style dashboards |
+
+### Decision Framework
+
+- **1-2 filters**: Top bar.
+- **3-5 filters**: Right sidebar.
+- **6+ filters**: Right sidebar with collapsible sections, or a dedicated filter dashboard page.
+- **Rarely used filters**: Floating with a Show/Hide button object on the dashboard.
+
+### Filter Zone Sizing
+
+- **Dropdown (single-select)**: Height 40-60px, width 180-250px
+- **Multi-select list**: Height 120-200px, width 180-250px
+- **Slider (range)**: Height 50-70px, width 200-300px
+- **Parameter control**: Height 40-60px, width 150-220px
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Lead with insight, not data.** The top-left zone should answer the dashboard's primary question.
+2. **Limit to 4-6 visualizations per dashboard.** More charts compete for attention and shrink to illegible sizes.
+3. **Use BANs for KPIs.** A 36-48pt number communicates status faster than any chart.
+4. **Put filters in a consistent location** — right sidebar or top bar — and keep them out of the primary content area.
+5. **Use tiled layout by default.** Floating elements cause overlapping and alignment issues.
+6. **Design for the smallest target screen.** A 1920x1080 dashboard viewed on a 1366x768 laptop will be unreadable.
+7. **Group related charts visually** using background color containers or subtle borders.
+8. **Maintain consistent spacing** (8-16px padding) between all dashboard elements.
+9. **Choose a layout pattern** (Z, F, or inverted pyramid) and commit to it.
+10. **Test on the target device.** Preview at actual resolution, not just in Desktop's authoring view.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+### 1. Too Many Charts
+
+**Problem**: Cramming 7+ visualizations onto a single dashboard.
+
+**Fix**: Limit to 4-6 per dashboard. Split across multiple dashboards connected by navigation actions or a story.
+
+### 2. No Clear Focal Point
+
+**Problem**: All charts are the same size in a uniform grid.
+
+**Fix**: Make the primary viz 1.5-2x the area of secondary views. Use the Z-pattern or inverted pyramid.
+
+### 3. Inconsistent Spacing
+
+**Problem**: Some zones have 2px gaps, others have 20px.
+
+**Fix**: Use consistent padding — inner 8px, outer 12-16px, BAN row separation 4-8px. Set via the Layout pane.
+
+### 4. Filters Dominating the Layout
+
+**Problem**: A row of 6 filters consuming 150px of vertical space before any data appears.
+
+**Fix**: Move to a right sidebar or use floating filters with a toggle.
+
+### 5. Floating Elements Overlapping Tiled Content
+
+**Problem**: Floating zones overlap tiled layout on resize.
+
+**Fix**: Reserve floating objects for intentional overlays (annotations, show/hide panels). All structural layout should use tiled containers.
+
+### 6. No Visual Grouping
+
+**Problem**: All charts sit on the same flat background with no separation between logical groups.
+
+**Fix**: Use container background colors — light gray dashboard background (`#F5F5F5`) with white containers (`#FFFFFF`) for each logical group.
+
+### 7. Ignoring Mobile / Varied Screen Sizes
+
+**Problem**: Designing at 1920x1080, then wondering why it looks terrible on a 1366x768 laptop.
+
+**Fix**: Design for the smallest common screen in your audience.
+
+### 8. Wrong Sizing Mode Squishing Content
+
+**Problem**: Fixed sizing with multiple charts forces all content to fit, making charts unreadably small.
+
+**Fix**: Use Vertical Scroll mode for dashboards with 4+ visualizations. See `dashboard-layout-structure.md` for sizing mode guidance.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+Use the sections above as the implementation reference for Tableau authoring. Apply the relevant pattern in the workbook or dashboard, then verify the result in Tableau for correctness, readability, and customer-safe behavior.

+# Dashboard Overload: Redirecting Customers Who Want Too Much on One Dashboard
+
+Enforcement: judgment-only
+
+SE knowledge entry for field expertise that may later be reviewed for promotion into the Tableau authoring expertise layer.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: refine | safely decline | govern
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude and SEs redirect customers away from overloaded dashboards toward focused, navigable designs that serve the business question better.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: dashboard design, layout, customer management, interactivity, navigation, filter actions, viz in tooltip
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "dashboard has too many charts", "user can't find the insight", "how to simplify an overloaded dashboard", "split into multiple dashboards", "customer wants everything on one screen", "redirect away from cluttered design", "dashboard best practice chart count", "navigation between dashboards", "viz in tooltip to reduce clutter", "primary vs secondary content"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when a customer presents a dashboard — or asks you to build one — that is trying to answer too many questions at once, has too many visualizations, or is so dense that the business user cannot extract a clear insight.
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Any customer audience (common across all verticals and roles)
+- Tableau Desktop and Tableau Cloud authoring
+- Dashboard design reviews, POC builds, and training contexts
+
+## Diagnostic: What to Look For First
+
+Before responding, assess the dashboard across these dimensions:
+
+1. **Number of visualizations.** More than 4-5 data zones is a signal that the dashboard is trying to do too much.
+2. **White space and visual grouping.** Are related objects clearly grouped together? Is there enough breathing room between zones, or does everything bleed together?
+3. **View types.** Are the chart types appropriate? Dense scatter plots, large crosstabs, or small multiples can each balloon perceived complexity.
+4. **Level of aggregation.** Are views showing more granularity than the audience needs? More highly aggregated views often communicate faster and fit better.
+5. **Question alignment.** Do all visualizations work together to answer a coherent set of business questions? If a view feels unrelated to the others, it probably belongs elsewhere.
+6. **Intended use mode.** Is this a display-only dashboard (TV, presentation) or an interactive one? Display-only dashboards need to be even more focused.
+7. **Interactivity plan.** What filters and dashboard actions are planned? Interactivity between worksheets, highlight actions, and URL actions add cognitive load that needs to be budgeted.
+8. **Redundancy.** Can any views be removed or merged without losing the story?
+9. **Mark density.** For marks-heavy views, are all the marks actually needed, or would a more aggregated form tell the same story?
+
+## Core Principle
+
+A dashboard is not a report. It is a springboard to understanding and data curiosity. Its job is not to answer everything — it is to surface the right question and make it easy to explore further. Every view on a dashboard should earn its place by supporting that goal.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Establish the primary business question the dashboard is meant to answer before discussing any specific view.
+- Limit to 4-5 data zones per dashboard. More than that competes for attention and forces individual views to shrink to illegible sizes.
+- Use condensing techniques before recommending a redesign: filter actions, highlight actions, viz in tooltip, and parameter controls can collapse what would otherwise be separate views into a single interactive zone.
+- If the customer is attached to all the content, help them sort it into **primary** (must answer the key question), **secondary** (useful context), and **tertiary** (nice to have). Primary content stays; secondary and tertiary move to linked dashboards.
+- Split into multiple dashboards connected by navigation actions or a Story. Standardize the visual look and feel — same fonts, same color palette, same filter placement — so the user feels continuity as they move between dashboards.
+- Make sure all dashboards in a set feel like one experience, not a collection of disconnected sheets. A user should not need to reorient themselves when they navigate to a new dashboard.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Say no when the customer insists on adding more views and the dashboard already exceeds 4-5 data zones and no further condensing is feasible.
+
+Recommended wording:
+
+> "I want to make sure this dashboard actually gets used. When dashboards try to answer too many questions at once, users tend to scan past the important insights without absorbing them. What if we kept the most critical three or four views here and moved the rest into a linked detail dashboard? We can wire up a navigation button so it's one click away — and the experience will feel intentional, not overloaded."
+
+Offer this instead:
+
+- Split content across a summary dashboard (4-5 views max) and one or more detail/drill dashboards, connected by navigation button objects or dashboard actions
+- Use viz in tooltip to surface detail-level data without adding a separate view to the canvas
+- Use filter actions to let a single chart drive context in adjacent views, reducing the need for separate breakdown charts
+- Use parameter controls or sheet swapper patterns to let one zone show multiple views without adding permanent canvas real estate
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- Accepting the customer's layout as-is and just styling it. A polished overloaded dashboard is still overloaded.
+- Adding more interactivity without simplifying the layout first. Interactivity adds cognitive load; it does not subtract visual clutter.
+- Splitting into more dashboards without standardizing the look and feel, leaving users disoriented when navigating.
+- Conflating "everything the customer asked for" with "a good dashboard." The customer's job is to know their business; the SE's job is to know what makes a dashboard work.
+
+## Implementation
+
+Conversation pattern:
+
+1. **Acknowledge the goal.** "It sounds like you need visibility across all of these areas for your team."
+2. **Name what you're seeing.** "Looking at the layout, I'm counting eight separate views — that's going to make it hard for users to know where to look first."
+3. **Introduce the primary question.** "What's the single most important thing a user should know within the first ten seconds of opening this dashboard?"
+4. **Sort the content together.** Walk through each view: primary, secondary, or tertiary. This gets the customer doing the prioritization, not resisting it.
+5. **Show the path forward.** Sketch or propose: summary dashboard for primary content, linked detail dashboard(s) for secondary, navigation to connect them. Show how filter actions and viz in tooltip can absorb some secondary content without extra canvas space.
+6. **Standardize before you split.** Agree on a shared color palette, font, and filter placement pattern before building out multiple dashboards. Consistency is what makes multi-dashboard navigation feel like one product.

+# Dashboard Peer Review Checklist
+
+SE knowledge entry for field expertise that may later be reviewed for promotion into the Tableau authoring expertise layer.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: validate, govern, safely decline
+- In-scope reason: Defines the field-tested peer review checklist used to gate dashboards before production — so Claude can guide authors to self-review correctly and help SEs conduct structured reviews that catch the most common authoring and governance failures.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: peer-review, governance, quality-gate, filters, tooltips, naming, worksheet-hygiene, row-limiter, data-classification, publishing
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how do I review a dashboard before publishing", "pre-production checklist", "what to check before going live", "dashboard quality gate", "peer review failing", "template elements missing", "filters breaking when data changes", "all in list vs all"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when:
+
+- An author is preparing a dashboard for peer review or production publishing
+- An SE is conducting or structuring a dashboard review
+- A customer asks what quality standards a dashboard should meet before going live
+- Claude is asked to validate or critique a dashboard's readiness
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Enterprise teams with a governed dashboard publishing process
+- Any Tableau dashboard being published to Tableau Server or Tableau Cloud
+- All dashboard types: operational, inspection, and management performance
+
+## Best Practices
+
+A peer review is a gate, not a suggestion. The dashboard does not go to production until every check passes.
+
+### 1. Story Check
+
+Verify the dashboard actually answers the question or request it was built for. The dashboard should tell a clear, focused story — not overwhelm the viewer with information. If the dashboard cannot be summarized in one sentence, it is doing too much.
+
+Ask: "Does this dashboard answer the original business question? Would a viewer know what to do or think after looking at it for 10 seconds?"
+
+### 2. Template and Brand Standards
+
+Confirm all six required template elements are present and correctly populated:
+
+1. Header (common font, optional business unit branding)
+2. Subtitle / context block (what, why, who — must be complete, not a placeholder)
+3. Help contact (email or support form)
+4. Data currency — two distinct fields: refreshed as of + current as of
+5. Data classification label (near data currency, not in a footer)
+6. Filter panel (≤10 visible left panel, 10+ collapsible with icon button)
+
+Also check:
+- Fonts are consistent with portfolio standards
+- Colors are used to make a point, not for decoration
+- Style guidelines and branding are followed
+
+### 3. Tooltip Quality
+
+Review every tooltip on every viz. A good tooltip:
+
+- Is simple and to the point — not a data dump
+- Shows the category or dimension (what slice of data is this?)
+- Shows a single primary metric
+- **If showing a percentage: always includes the numerator, denominator, and the percentage** — never the percentage alone
+
+Tooltips are commonly treated as an afterthought. Peer review should ensure they add to the data story rather than appearing as an annoying or confusing pop-up.
+
+### 4. Mobile Compatibility
+
+If mobile is a requirement for the use case, verify the dashboard translates well to a mobile layout. Check at mobile resolution before approving.
+
+### 5. Interactivity Testing
+
+Test every interactive element end-to-end:
+
+- All buttons function correctly
+- URL actions open the correct destination
+- View as Filter works as expected and applies across the intended vizzes
+- Dashboard actions (filter actions, highlight actions) behave correctly across all target worksheets
+
+Do not assume interactivity works because it was set up correctly — test it.
+
+### 6. Filter Validation
+
+Check every filter on the dashboard:
+
+**Applied correctly:**
+- Each filter applies to the correct worksheets (usually all sheets on the same dashboard tab)
+- Confirm scope is intentional — not accidentally limited to a single sheet
+
+**Future-proofed for new data:**
+- Use **"All"** (dynamic), never **"All in list"** — "All in list" is a static snapshot of dimension members at build time and breaks when new values enter the data
+- Date filters must use **relative date ranges** (last 30 days, last quarter, year to date) — never a hardcoded start/end date. A hardcoded date range returns no data once time moves past it, leaving users with a blank dashboard and no explanation
+
+**Filter UI best practice:**
+- Multi-select dropdown list
+- Explicit "All" option
+- "Apply" button so users can make all selections before the dashboard refreshes
+
+### 7. Data Pane Hygiene
+
+Review the Data pane of every worksheet:
+
+**Field naming:**
+- All field aliases must match the standardized logical names of the database (e.g., "Loan Number" everywhere — not `loan_nbr`, `LN_NUM`, or a developer's custom label)
+- The same field must have the same name across every dashboard that uses the same data source
+- Calculated fields should follow the same naming conventions as the base fields — they should feel like they belong in the same family
+
+**Unused fields:**
+- Remove all fields not used in the workbook before publishing
+- Unused fields clutter the Data pane, confuse maintainers, and may expose data that should not be visible
+
+### 8. Worksheet Hygiene
+
+- Every worksheet must have a clear, concise, human-readable name — not "Sheet 1," "Sheet 4," or a developer abbreviation
+- Worksheets should be color-coded as a visual grouping aid (sheets feeding related dashboards use the same color). Use general grouping, not strict tab-matching, since a sheet may appear on multiple dashboard tabs
+- Remove all unused worksheets — if a sheet is not used on any dashboard, it should not be in the workbook
+
+### 9. Row Limiter for Tabular Dashboards
+
+For any dashboard containing a grid or tabular view, apply the row limiter pattern to prevent users from loading and exporting unbounded row counts.
+
+**Why it matters:** Financial services users commonly export dashboard data to Excel. A user exporting 100,000 rows is likely doing work that should be done in the dashboard itself. The row limiter creates a natural boundary and opens a conversation about what they actually need.
+
+**Implementation:**
+- **Parameter**: "Number of Records Shown" — expose to users, either in the left filter panel or top-right above the grid. Default value on open: 1,000. Additional values: 10,000, 25,000, 50,000, 100,000
+- **Calculated field**: `INDEX()` — hidden field placed on the leftmost shelf of Rows; this sequences every row in the table
+- **Filter**: A table calculation filter on the worksheet using: `INDEX() <= [Number of Records Shown]`
+
+The parameter is visible to users so they can increase the row count intentionally — but the default of 1,000 keeps the initial load fast and signals that larger exports should be questioned.
+
+### 10. Publishing and Access Checks
+
+Before publishing to Tableau Server or Tableau Cloud:
+
+**Classification vs. permissions alignment:**
+- Confirm the dashboard's data classification label (Internal Use Only, Confidential, Restricted) matches the Tableau Server permission group the dashboard will be published to
+- A "Confidential" label on a dashboard published to an all-staff group is a governance failure — the label and the access must agree
+
+**Business access rules:**
+- Verify that the permission groups granted access do not inadvertently expose data to users who should not have it under business rules — not just Tableau rules
+- This is distinct from Tableau's permission model: a group may have technical access to a dashboard while business policy says they should not see that data
+- When in doubt, verify with your data steward, compliance officer, or Tableau administrator before publishing
+
+## When to Say No
+
+Say no when a dashboard fails any check and the author wants to publish anyway.
+
+Recommended wording:
+
+> Peer review is a gate, not a suggestion. Publishing a dashboard that fails a check creates a support burden, a trust problem, or a compliance risk that is much harder to fix after users have seen it. Let's resolve the issue now — it is almost always faster than dealing with it after publish.
+
+Common situations requiring a hard stop before publish:
+
+- Subtitle is blank or contains placeholder text
+- Data classification label is missing or does not match the Server permissions group
+- Filters use "All in list" or a hardcoded date range
+- PII or fair-lending-sensitive fields are present in the dataset
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **Treating peer review as optional or a formality.** It is a production gate. A dashboard that has not been reviewed should not be published.
+- **Reviewing only the visuals, not the data.** The most impactful failures — hardcoded date filters, "All in list" members, incorrect filter scope, unused fields — are invisible until the data changes or time passes.
+- **Skipping interactivity testing.** Filter actions and URL actions frequently break when sheets are renamed or data sources are swapped. Test every one.
+- **Not checking tooltips.** Tooltips are almost always an afterthought. An unformatted tooltip that dumps all fields onto the viewer erodes trust in the dashboard.
+- **Approving with known issues "to fix later."** Issues noted in review but not resolved before publish rarely get fixed. The review gate exists specifically to prevent this.
+
+## Implementation
+
+Suggested review sequence:
+
+1. Open the original dashboard request alongside the finished dashboard
+2. Run the story check first — if the dashboard doesn't answer the question, the detailed checks don't matter yet
+3. Work through template, tooltip, and brand checks visually
+4. Switch to the Data pane and worksheets for naming and hygiene checks
+5. Test every filter — change values, confirm scope, verify no "All in list" or hardcoded dates
+6. Test all buttons, actions, and interactive elements end-to-end
+7. For tabular dashboards, verify the row limiter parameter and INDEX filter are in place
+8. Run the mobile check if applicable
+9. Before approving publish: confirm classification label matches Server permissions group and verify business access rules with the appropriate stakeholder

+# Dashboard Template Anatomy
+
+SE knowledge entry for field expertise that may later be reviewed for promotion into the Tableau authoring expertise layer.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, format, govern
+- In-scope reason: Defines the required structural elements of a standard Tableau dashboard template so Claude can guide users building new dashboards or auditing existing ones against a field-tested enterprise baseline.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: dashboard, template, layout, header, data-currency, data-classification, filters, governance, enterprise
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "what should every dashboard include", "how do I standardize dashboards", "required dashboard elements", "where do I put data freshness", "data classification label placement", "how many filters before collapsing", "what goes in a dashboard header"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when a customer is:
+
+- Building a new Tableau dashboard and has not defined a structural template yet
+- Asking how to standardize dashboards across a team, workgroup, or business unit
+- Auditing existing dashboards for consistency and completeness
+- Asking where to put filters, titles, contact info, or data freshness indicators
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Enterprise teams managing more than a handful of dashboards
+- Any Tableau user who wants dashboards to feel consistent and professional
+- SEs building demo dashboards or guiding a customer POC
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Reading Order: Upper-Left to Lower-Right
+
+Place the most important content in the upper-left and the least important content in the lower-right. The eye follows a natural Z-pattern or F-pattern across a dashboard — work with that flow, not against it. See `dashboard-layout-patterns.md` for full layout pattern guidance.
+
+### Required Template Elements
+
+Every dashboard in a governed portfolio should include all of the following:
+
+#### 1. Header
+
+- Common font, consistent across all dashboards in the portfolio
+- Optionally branded to a specific business unit or domain
+- Should appear at the top of every dashboard — never omit it
+
+#### 2. Subtitle / Context Block
+
+A 2–3 sentence block immediately below or within the header that answers:
+
+- **What** this dashboard shows
+- **Why** it exists (the business question it answers)
+- **Who** the primary users are
+
+This is the most commonly skipped element and the most important one for governance. Without it, dashboards become orphaned and unmaintainable.
+
+#### 3. Help Contact
+
+An email address or link to a support form so users know who to contact with questions or data issues. This prevents support requests from going to the wrong team and builds trust with dashboard consumers.
+
+#### 4. Data Currency — Two Distinct Indicators
+
+Include **both** of the following, clearly labeled:
+
+- **Refreshed as of**: When the ETL or data extract last ran (pipeline timestamp)
+- **Current as of**: What time period the data actually covers (business date of the data)
+
+These two values are often different and must not be conflated. A pipeline can run at 6am today but the data it loaded may only be current through yesterday's close. Showing only one misleads users about what they are looking at.
+
+#### 5. Data Classification Label
+
+A visible label indicating the information classification of the dashboard's data, placed **near the data currency indicators** in the header zone — never in a footer.
+
+Common classification levels (institution-defined):
+
+- **Internal Use Only** — visible to employees, not for external distribution
+- **Confidential** — restricted to specific roles or teams
+- **Restricted** — highest sensitivity, tightly controlled access
+
+The label is primarily a visual signal for the consumer, but it carries a governance obligation: the peer review must confirm that the classification label matches the actual access controls on the dashboard. A "Confidential" label on a broadly accessible dashboard is a compliance failure.
+
+**Why not the footer:** Footer labels get lost when the dashboard canvas is taller than the screen or when scroll position varies. Placing the classification label near the data currency ensures it is always visible in the header area regardless of canvas size or scroll.
+
+#### 6. Filter Panel
+
+Apply the following threshold rule:
+
+| Filter count | Placement |
+|---|---|
+| ~10 or fewer | Left-side panel, always visible |
+| More than 10 | Floating panel, toggled by a filter icon button |
+
+For the floating panel pattern:
+- Use a Tableau button object with a filter icon image
+- Wire the button to show/hide the floating filter panel
+- The panel should float over the dashboard content, not push the layout
+- The icon provides a familiar affordance — users know what it means
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Say no when a customer wants to skip the template elements to "save time" or asks Claude to build a dashboard without a subtitle, data currency indicators, a classification label, or a help contact.
+
+Recommended wording:
+
+> These elements take minutes to add and prevent months of confusion. A dashboard without a subtitle becomes unmaintainable — no one will know what it does or who owns it six months from now. Let's add them now while we're building.
+
+Offer this instead:
+
+- A pre-built shared template workbook that pre-loads all required elements as placeholders so the author just fills them in
+- A checklist the author can run through before publishing
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **Skipping the subtitle.** Without the context block, no one knows what a dashboard is for six months after it was built. Peer review should catch this before production.
+- **Using a single data freshness field.** Showing "Last Updated: Today 6:02am" when the data covers through yesterday misleads users about timeliness. Always show both refresh time and data coverage period separately.
+- **Inconsistent fonts and headers across dashboards.** When every dashboard looks slightly different, users perceive the reporting platform as unreliable. Standardize the header in a template and require its use.
+- **No help contact.** Data questions and issues have nowhere to go, eroding trust in the dashboard. A single email address or support link costs almost nothing to add.
+- **Putting 10+ filters in a visible sidebar.** A visible panel with many filters competes with the content for attention and clutters the layout. Use the threshold rule to decide when to collapse filters behind a button.
+- **Placing the data classification label in the footer.** Footer labels disappear when the dashboard canvas is taller than the screen. Field-tested lesson: move the classification label to the header zone near the data currency indicators so it is always visible.
+- **Mismatched classification label and access controls.** A label that says "Confidential" on a dashboard accessible to all employees is a governance failure. Peer review must confirm the label and the actual Tableau Server/Cloud permissions align.
+
+## Implementation
+
+To apply this template when building a new dashboard:
+
+1. Start from a shared Tableau workbook template file (`.twbx`) that pre-loads the header, subtitle placeholder, contact object, data currency fields, and classification label.
+2. Fill in the subtitle context block (what, why, who) before adding any charts.
+3. Add the data currency fields as calculated fields or as a text object pulled from a metadata extract — one for refresh timestamp, one for data-as-of date.
+4. Add the data classification label as a text object in the header zone, adjacent to the data currency indicators. Apply the correct classification level per your institution's data governance policy.
+5. Decide on filter count and apply the threshold rule (≤10 visible left panel, 10+ collapsible floating panel).
+6. Route the dashboard through peer review before publishing to production. The peer reviewer should confirm all six template elements are present, the subtitle is complete, and the classification label matches the actual access controls on the published dashboard.
+
+For enforcing this in an existing portfolio:
+- Audit dashboards against the six required elements
+- Prioritize adding the subtitle/context block, data currency, and classification label to high-traffic dashboards first
+- Build the template elements into a shared layout container that authors can copy into any workbook

+# KPI Tile Construction Pattern
+
+SE knowledge entry for field expertise that may later be reviewed for promotion into the Tableau authoring expertise layer.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, format
+- In-scope reason: Defines the field-tested 3-sheet container pattern for building KPI summary tiles that include a BAN, directional trend indicator, and sparkline — so Claude can guide users building the top KPI row of a dashboard correctly.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: dashboard, KPI, BAN, sparkline, trend, container, layout, authoring-pattern
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how do I build a KPI tile", "big number with trend arrow", "sparkline next to BAN", "how many KPI tiles in a row", "arrow color green or red", "when to skip the trend line", "KPI summary row best practice"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when a customer is:
+
+- Building the top KPI summary row of a dashboard
+- Asking how to show a big number with a trend indicator alongside it
+- Trying to combine a BAN, an up/down arrow, and a sparkline in one tile
+- Asking how to color an arrow green or red based on whether the trend is good or bad
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Any Tableau dashboard with a KPI summary section
+- Operational, financial, and executive dashboards where headline metrics drive decisions
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### KPI Tile Row Rules
+
+- **Maximum 5 KPI tiles** in the top summary row. More than 5 tiles compress each tile to the point where the numbers and sparklines become unreadable.
+- Each tile should represent a metric that is **primary to the dashboard's audience** — not every available metric. If a metric does not drive a decision for the intended viewer, it does not belong in the top row.
+- Tiles should be **equal width** across the row, distributed evenly in a horizontal layout container.
+
+### The 3-Sheet KPI Tile
+
+Each KPI tile is built from up to three sheets inside a vertical container:
+
+```
+Vertical container (one tile)
+├── Horizontal container
+│   ├── Sheet 1: BAN (the primary metric number)
+│   └── Sheet 2: Up/down arrow (trend direction, colored green/red)
+└── Sheet 3: Trend line / sparkline (omit if no history available)
+```
+
+#### Sheet 1 — BAN
+
+- Displays the primary metric value at large font size (24–48pt)
+- Minimal decoration: no axes, no gridlines, no borders
+- Label/title at 10–14pt below or above the number
+
+#### Sheet 2 — Directional Arrow
+
+- Separate sheet for clean color control independent of the BAN
+- Use a shape mark (up/down triangle or arrow character) sized to be clearly visible next to the BAN
+- Color encoding:
+  - **Green** = favorable trend (good)
+  - **Red** = unfavorable trend (bad)
+- Place Sheet 2 immediately to the right of Sheet 1 inside the horizontal container
+- The definition of "good" vs. "bad" depends on the metric — for revenue, up is green; for cost or exceptions, up is red. Define this explicitly in the calculated field driving the color.
+
+#### Sheet 3 — Trend Line / Sparkline
+
+- A compact line chart showing the metric over the available historical period
+- Sits below the horizontal container (Sheet 1 + Sheet 2) in the vertical tile container
+- Time grain adapts to the dataset: use monthly for 12+ months of history, weekly or daily for shorter windows
+- **Omit Sheet 3 entirely** when the data has no meaningful history — for example, active pipeline data, current-state snapshots, or any dataset where a time series would be misleading or empty. Do not show a blank or near-empty sparkline.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Say no when a customer wants to add a sparkline to a tile but the underlying data has no history or only a single time period.
+
+Recommended wording:
+
+> A trend line only adds value when there is enough history to show a meaningful pattern. With only current-state data, a sparkline would be empty or misleading. Let's keep this tile as a BAN with the directional arrow and skip the trend line — that tells the story cleanly without implying history that isn't there.
+
+Offer this instead:
+
+- A 2-sheet tile (BAN + arrow) without the sparkline
+- A text indicator showing the comparison period (e.g., "vs. prior month") instead of a full trend line
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **Embedding the arrow in the BAN sheet.** Coloring a shape inside the same sheet as the BAN forces you to fight Tableau's color encoding on the primary measure. Separate sheets give clean, independent color control.
+- **More than 5 tiles in the top row.** At 6+ tiles the numbers shrink, the sparklines become unreadable lines, and the row stops communicating. Push additional metrics down the page or to a secondary tab.
+- **Showing a sparkline when there is no history.** An empty or near-empty trend line signals broken data to the viewer. Omit Sheet 3 explicitly when history is unavailable.
+- **Using the same color direction for every metric.** Green-up works for revenue but is wrong for cost, errors, or risk. Define good/bad direction per metric in the calculated field, not as a global rule.
+- **Uneven tile widths.** If tiles are different widths, the row looks unbalanced and implies some metrics are more important than others without intent. Use an evenly distributed horizontal container.
+
+## Implementation
+
+To build a KPI tile row:
+
+1. Decide which metrics belong in the top row (maximum 5). Each must be primary to the dashboard's audience.
+2. For each tile, create three sheets:
+   - **Sheet 1 (BAN)**: Single measure, Text or Square mark, large font, no axes or gridlines.
+   - **Sheet 2 (Arrow)**: Shape mark driven by a calculated field that returns `"up"` or `"down"` based on period-over-period change. Assign a color calculation: green for favorable, red for unfavorable. Size the shape to align visually with the BAN.
+   - **Sheet 3 (Sparkline)**: Line mark on the measure over time. Remove all axes, gridlines, headers, and labels. Keep it minimal — just the line shape.
+3. Build the container structure:
+   - Create a vertical layout container for the tile.
+   - Inside it, add a horizontal layout container containing Sheet 1 and Sheet 2.
+   - Below the horizontal container, add Sheet 3 (only if historical data exists).
+4. Duplicate the tile container across the row for each KPI.
+5. Place all tile containers inside a top-level horizontal layout container set to distribute evenly.
+6. If the dataset has no history for a given metric, use only the 2-sheet version (Sheet 1 + Sheet 2, no vertical container needed).

+# Dashboard: Layout & Design Strategy
+
+A guide for designing effective Tableau dashboard layouts — covering visual hierarchy, spacing, sizing, and implementation via the workbook JSON zone tree.
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine
+- In-scope reason: This helps Claude design effective dashboard layouts by choosing visual hierarchy patterns and sizing modes that match the user's target audience and deployment context.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: dashboards, layout, visual-hierarchy, spacing, sizing, zone-tree, bans, filter-sidebar, z-pattern, f-pattern, inverted-pyramid, fixed-size, automatic-size, vscroll, coordinate-calculation, container, distribute-evenly
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "dashboard zone tree structure", "BAN row layout container", "fixed vs automatic vs vscroll sizing", "calculate zone coordinates", "distribute evenly container", "filter sidebar fixed width", "spacing with empty zones", "background color visual grouping", "1366x768 dashboard dimensions", "vertical scroll mode for multi-chart"
+
+## When to Use This Module
+
+Use this module when:
+
+- **Building a new dashboard** from scratch and need to decide on layout structure before adding sheets
+- **Reorganizing an existing dashboard** that feels cluttered or lacks a clear narrative
+- **Designing for a specific audience** (executive summary, analyst deep-dive, presentation/TV display)
+- **Planning BAN/KPI summary dashboards** where headline numbers drive the story
+- **Choosing between fixed, automatic, or range sizing** for a target deployment context
+
+This module focuses on *design decisions*. For the mechanics of constructing dashboards in workbook JSON, see `data/prefabs/dashboard-composition.md`.
+
+---
+
+## Layout Principles
+
+### Z-Pattern (Western Reading Order)
+
+The eye naturally moves: **top-left > top-right > bottom-left > bottom-right**.
+
+```
+ ┌──────────────┬──────────────┐
+ │  1. KPI / BAN │  2. Trend    │
+ ├──────────────┼──────────────┤
+ │  3. Breakdown │  4. Detail   │
+ └──────────────┴──────────────┘
+```
+
+**Best for**: Executive dashboards, KPI summaries, any dashboard where four distinct views tell a progressive story. Place the single most important insight at position 1. Supporting context flows naturally through positions 2-4.
+
+### F-Pattern (Scanning)
+
+The eye scans horizontally across the top, then drops down the left edge with decreasing horizontal reach.
+
+```
+ ┌─────────────────────────────┐
+ │  Headline / BAN row          │  ← full-width scan
+ ├──────────────┬──────────────┤
+ │  Primary viz  │  Secondary   │  ← shorter scan
+ ├──────────────┤              │
+ │  Detail/table │              │  ← left-biased
+ └──────────────┴──────────────┘
+```
+
+**Best for**: Dashboards with a dominant left-column visualization and supporting right-column context. Works well when the primary chart is a tall time-series or bar chart.
+
+### Inverted Pyramid
+
+Key insight at the top in a full-width zone, progressively more granular data below.
+
+```
+ ┌─────────────────────────────┐
+ │  Key Insight (full width)    │
+ ├──────────┬──────────────────┤
+ │  Segment  │   Segment        │
+ ├────┬─────┼────┬─────────────┤
+ │ D1 │ D2  │ D3 │  D4          │
+ └────┴─────┴────┴─────────────┘
+```
+
+**Best for**: Analytical dashboards where the audience first needs the summary, then wants to drill into supporting segments and detail. Common in financial reporting and operational dashboards.
+
+### Choosing a Pattern
+
+| Audience | Recommended Pattern | Reason |
+|----------|-------------------|--------|
+| Executives | Z-pattern or Inverted Pyramid | Quick scan, key number first |
+| Analysts | F-pattern | Deep-dive left column with reference on right |
+| Presentations / TV | Z-pattern (2x2 grid) | Readable at distance, balanced |
+| Embedded / portal | Inverted Pyramid | Works in variable-width containers |
+
+---
+
+## Information Hierarchy
+
+### The Three Tiers
+
+1. **Primary (top-left quadrant)**: The single most important metric or chart. This is what the viewer should see within the first 2 seconds. Examples: revenue trend, conversion rate, headline KPI.
+
+2. **Secondary (top-right and bottom-left)**: Supporting context that explains or breaks down the primary insight. Examples: breakdown by region, comparison to prior period, category distribution.
+
+3. **Tertiary (bottom-right or below fold)**: Detail tables, granular filters, legends, footnotes. The viewer reaches this only after absorbing the primary and secondary content.
+
+### Hierarchy Rules
+
+- **One focal point per dashboard.** If everything is equally prominent, nothing is prominent.
+- **Size encodes importance.** The primary viz should occupy 30-50% of the dashboard area. Secondary views each get 15-25%. Tertiary elements fill the remainder.
+- **Whitespace is a signal.** Extra padding around the primary viz draws the eye toward it.
+- **Filters and controls are not the story.** They should never compete with the primary viz for attention. Place them in a sidebar or thin top bar.
+
+### Visual Weight Techniques
+
+| Technique | Effect |
+|-----------|--------|
+| Larger zone dimensions | Draws attention first |
+| Darker or saturated background behind a zone | Creates visual pop |
+| White container on gray dashboard background | Lifts the element forward |
+| Title with bold/larger font | Anchors the eye |
+| Border or shadow on a container | Separates and emphasizes |
+
+---
+
+## BANs (Big Ass Numbers)
+
+BANs are large-format single numbers displayed prominently — typically KPIs like revenue, count, or percentage change.
+
+### When to Use BANs
+
+- **KPI summary row at the top** of a dashboard (the most common pattern)
+- **Scorecard dashboards** where 4-8 metrics are the entire story
+- **Call-to-action dashboards** where a threshold number drives decisions (e.g., "Orders Pending: 47")
+
+### BAN Design Rules
+
+1. **Font size**: 24-48pt for the number itself. The label/title should be 10-14pt — small enough to not compete.
+2. **Minimal decoration**: No gridlines, no axes, no borders around the BAN sheet. Strip everything away so only the number and label remain.
+3. **Consistent width**: Each BAN in a row should occupy equal width. Use a horizontal `layout-basic` container with `distribute-evenly` strategy.
+4. **Color for meaning**: Green/red for positive/negative delta. Use sparingly — if every BAN is colored, the signal is lost.
+5. **Delta indicators**: Show change vs. prior period as a smaller secondary number or arrow beneath the main figure.
+6. **Alignment**: Center-align both the number and the label within each BAN zone.
+
+### BAN Row Layout (Zone Tree Pattern)
+
+A typical BAN row is a horizontal container holding 3-5 equal-width zones:
+
+```
+Root (layout-basic, flow)
+├── Title zone (full width, h=40)
+├── BAN container (layout-basic, distribute-evenly, h=100)
+│   ├── BAN 1 (visual, "Revenue KPI")
+│   ├── BAN 2 (visual, "Orders KPI")
+│   ├── BAN 3 (visual, "Margin KPI")
+│   └── BAN 4 (visual, "Customers KPI")
+├── Primary viz zone (visual, h=remaining)
+└── ...
+```
+
+Each BAN worksheet should contain a single `AGG()` measure on Text, with the sheet title hidden (`show-title: false`) and a formatted-text zone or sheet title used as the label.
+
+### BAN Zone Height
+
+- **80-120px** is the sweet spot. Taller than 120px wastes space; shorter than 80px makes the number too small to read at a glance.
+- The BAN row should consume no more than 10-15% of total dashboard height.
+
+---
+
+## Filter & Parameter Placement
+
+### Placement Strategies
+
+| Strategy | Layout | Best For |
+|----------|--------|----------|
+| **Right sidebar** | Vertical container, fixed width 200-280px, right edge | Dashboards with 3+ filters; keeps filters visible without crowding the viz area |
+| **Top bar** | Horizontal container, fixed height 40-60px, below title | 1-2 compact filters (dropdowns); minimal vertical space impact |
+| **Floating** | Overlay on dashboard, toggled visible/hidden | Mobile layouts, minimal-chrome dashboards, power-user filters used rarely |
+| **Left sidebar** | Vertical container, fixed width 200-280px, left edge | Navigation-style dashboards where filters act as the primary interaction model |
+
+### Decision Framework
+
+- **1-2 filters**: Top bar. Minimal footprint, always visible.
+- **3-5 filters**: Right sidebar. Organized vertically, out of the primary viewing path.
+- **6+ filters**: Right sidebar with collapsible sections, or a dedicated filter dashboard page in a story/navigation setup.
+- **Rarely used filters**: Floating with a show/hide button (use `set_zone_visibility`).
+
+### Filter Zone Sizing
+
+- **Dropdown (single-select)**: Height 40-60px, width 180-250px
+- **Multi-select list**: Height 120-200px, width 180-250px
+- **Slider (range)**: Height 50-70px, width 200-300px
+- **Parameter control**: Height 40-60px, width 150-220px
+
+### Sidebar Implementation
+
+Use a nested container approach in the zone tree:
+
+```
+Root (layout-basic, flow, horizontal)
+├── Content area (layout-basic, flow, vertical, flexible width)
+│   ├── Title
+│   ├── BAN row
+│   └── Viz zones
+└── Filter sidebar (layout-basic, flow, vertical, is-fixed=true, fixed-size=250)
+    ├── Filter 1 (filter zone)
+    ├── Filter 2 (filter zone)
+    └── Parameter 1 (paramctrl zone)
+```
+
+The `is-fixed: true` and `fixed-size: 250` on the sidebar zone ensures it holds its width while the content area absorbs remaining space.
+
+---
+
+## Sizing Strategy
+
+### Sizing Modes
+
+| Mode | `sizing-mode` | When to Use |
+|------|--------------|-------------|
+| **Fixed** | `fixed` | Known target screen size; presentations, kiosks, PDF export |
+| **Automatic** | `automatic` | Embedded in web apps with variable container size |
+| **Range** | `range` | Responsive layouts with min/max bounds |
+| **Vertical Scroll** | `vscroll` | **Default for multi-chart dashboards** - Allows vertical scrolling instead of squishing content. Use when you have 4+ visualizations or when content height exceeds viewport. Prevents charts from becoming unreadably small. |
+
+### Common Target Sizes
+
+| Context | Width x Height | Notes |
+|---------|---------------|-------|
+| Laptop (standard) | 1366 x 768 | Most common corporate laptop resolution |
+| Laptop (hi-res) | 1440 x 900 | MacBook, modern Windows laptops |
+| Desktop / presentation | 1920 x 1080 | Full HD monitors, projectors |
+| Tablet (landscape) | 1024 x 768 | iPad classic |
+| TV / wall display | 1920 x 1080 | Same as desktop; use large fonts |
+| Embedded (narrow) | 800 x 600 | Portal widgets, sidebar embeds |
+
+### Sizing Rules
+
+1. **Default to `vscroll` for dashboards with multiple charts** to prevent squishing. Fixed sizing forces all content to fit, making charts unreadably small when you have 4+ visualizations.
+2. **Use `fixed` only when** you have a known target screen size and minimal content (1-3 charts) that fits comfortably without scrolling.
+3. **Design for the smallest target screen**, not the largest. A dashboard designed at 1920x1080 will be unreadable on a 1366x768 laptop.
+4. **Subtract browser chrome** from the target resolution. At 1366x768, the usable Tableau Server viewport is roughly 1350x650 after the toolbar and browser address bar.
+5. **Range mode** is useful when publishing to both Tableau Server (viewed in browsers of varying width) and Tableau Mobile. Set `minwidth`/`minheight` for the smallest target and `maxwidth`/`maxheight` for the largest.
+
+### Size Node in Workbook JSON
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "size",
+  "attrs": {
+    "sizing-mode": "fixed",
+    "maxwidth": "1366",
+    "maxheight": "768"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+For range mode, include all four bounds:
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "size",
+  "attrs": {
+    "sizing-mode": "range",
+    "minwidth": "800",
+    "minheight": "600",
+    "maxwidth": "1400",
+    "maxheight": "900"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+For vertical scroll mode (recommended for multi-chart dashboards):
+
+```xml
+<size maxwidth="1400" minwidth="800" sizing-mode="vscroll"/>
+```
+
+**Key points for `vscroll`:**
+- Only set `maxwidth` and `minwidth` (not height) - height is determined by content
+- Content flows vertically and scrolls when it exceeds the viewport
+- Prevents squishing - each chart maintains its natural size
+- Use when you have 4+ visualizations or when content naturally exceeds viewport height
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices Summary
+
+1. **Lead with insight, not data.** The top-left zone should answer the dashboard's primary question — not show a giant table.
+2. **Limit to 4-6 visualizations per dashboard.** More charts compete for attention and shrink to illegible sizes.
+3. **Use BANs for KPIs.** A 36-48pt number with a label communicates status faster than any chart.
+4. **Put filters in a consistent location** — right sidebar or top bar — and keep them out of the primary content area.
+5. **Use tiled layout by default.** Floating elements cause overlapping and alignment issues. Only float for annotations, logos, or BAN overlays.
+6. **Design for the smallest target screen.** A 1920x1080 dashboard viewed on a 1366x768 laptop will be unreadable.
+7. **Group related charts visually** using background color containers or subtle borders — not lines or whitespace alone.
+8. **Maintain consistent spacing** (8-16px padding) between all dashboard elements. Use empty zones as spacers.
+9. **Choose a layout pattern** (Z, F, or inverted pyramid) and commit to it. Mixing patterns confuses the viewer's scan path.
+10. **Test on the target device.** Preview at actual resolution, not just in Desktop's authoring view.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+### 1. Too Many Charts
+
+**Problem**: Cramming 7+ visualizations onto a single dashboard. Each chart becomes too small to read, and the viewer has no idea where to look first.
+
+**Fix**: Limit to 4-6 visualizations per dashboard. If you need more views, split across multiple dashboards connected by navigation actions or a story.
+
+### 2. No Clear Focal Point
+
+**Problem**: All charts are the same size in a uniform grid. Nothing says "look here first."
+
+**Fix**: Make the primary viz 1.5-2x the area of secondary views. Use the Z-pattern or inverted pyramid to establish hierarchy.
+
+### 3. Inconsistent Spacing
+
+**Problem**: Some zones have 2px gaps, others have 20px. Borders on some elements but not others. The layout feels unpolished.
+
+**Fix**: Use consistent padding throughout. Standard values:
+- **Inner padding** (within a container): 8px
+- **Outer padding** (between major sections): 12-16px
+- **BAN row separation**: 4-8px between individual BANs
+
+In the zone tree, control spacing via zone coordinates. For a 12px gap between two zones stacked vertically:
+```
+Zone A: y=0, h=300
+Zone B: y=312, h=300   ← 300 + 12 = 312
+```
+
+### 4. Filters Dominating the Layout
+
+**Problem**: A row of 6 filter controls across the top consuming 150px of vertical space — 20% of a 768px dashboard gone before any data appears.
+
+**Fix**: Move to a right sidebar (fixed 250px width) or use floating filters with a toggle. Compact single-value dropdowns can stay in a thin (40px) top bar.
+
+### 5. Wrong Sizing Mode / Squishing Content
+
+**Problem**: Using fixed sizing with `minheight`/`maxheight` on dashboards with multiple charts, forcing all content to fit and making charts unreadably small (squishing).
+
+**Fix**: Use `vscroll` mode for dashboards with 4+ visualizations. Set only `maxwidth`/`minwidth` (not height) - this allows vertical scrolling instead of squishing. Reserve fixed sizing for dashboards with 1-3 charts that fit comfortably in the viewport.
+
+### 6. Ignoring Mobile / Varied Screen Sizes
+
+**Problem**: Designing at 1920x1080, then wondering why it looks terrible on a 1366x768 laptop.
+
+**Fix**: Design for the smallest common screen in your audience. If mixed sizes, use range mode with tested min/max bounds.
+
+### 7. Floating Elements Overlapping Tiled Content
+
+**Problem**: Using floating zones without accounting for the tiled layout underneath, creating overlaps on resize.
+
+**Fix**: Reserve floating zones for elements that must overlay (tooltips, show/hide panels). All structural layout should be tiled using `layout-basic` containers with `flow` strategy.
+
+### 8. No Visual Grouping
+
+**Problem**: All charts sit on the same flat background with no visual separation between logical groups.
+
+**Fix**: Use container background colors to group related elements. A light gray dashboard background (`#F5F5F5`) with white containers (`#FFFFFF`) for each logical group creates clear visual separation without heavy borders.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation in Tableau Desktop
+
+### Zone Tree Architecture
+
+Every dashboard is a tree of zones rooted in a single `layout-basic` zone. The tree structure determines both visual layout and resize behavior. See `data/prefabs/dashboard-composition.md` for the full zone type reference.
+
+**Key zone types for layout:**
+
+| Zone Type | Role in Layout |
+|-----------|---------------|
+| `layout-basic` | Container — holds child zones, controls flow direction |
+| `layout-flow` | Flow container — wraps children automatically |
+| `visual` | Worksheet embed — the `name` attr must match an existing sheet |
+| `text` | Static text / labels — uses `formatted-text` child |
+| `filter` | Quick filter control |
+| `paramctrl` | Parameter control |
+| `empty` | Spacer — use for precise gap control between zones |
+| `title` | Dashboard title zone |
+
+### Building a Z-Pattern Layout
+
+The Z-pattern maps to a two-row, two-column grid:
+
+```
+Root (layout-basic, flow) — vertical stacking
+├── Title (title, h=40)
+├── Top row (layout-basic, distribute-evenly, h=350)
+│   ├── Top-left viz (visual, "Primary Chart")
+│   └── Top-right viz (visual, "Trend Chart")
+└── Bottom row (layout-basic, distribute-evenly, h=350)
+    ├── Bottom-left viz (visual, "Breakdown")
+    └── Bottom-right viz (visual, "Detail Table")
+```
+
+### Building a BAN + Detail Layout
+
+```
+Root (layout-basic, flow) — vertical stacking
+├── Title (title, h=36)
+├── BAN row (layout-basic, distribute-evenly, h=90)
+│   ├── BAN 1 (visual)
+│   ├── BAN 2 (visual)
+│   ├── BAN 3 (visual)
+│   └── BAN 4 (visual)
+├── Primary viz (visual, h=320)
+└── Detail row (layout-basic, distribute-evenly, h=280)
+    ├── Secondary viz A (visual)
+    └── Secondary viz B (visual)
+```
+
+### Building a Sidebar Filter Layout
+
+The key is nesting a horizontal container at the root, with the content area flexible and the sidebar fixed:
+
+```
+Root (layout-basic, flow) — horizontal direction
+├── Content (layout-basic, flow) — vertical, takes remaining width
+│   ├── Title (title, h=36)
+│   ├── BAN row (layout-basic, distribute-evenly, h=90)
+│   │   └── ...BANs...
+│   └── Main viz (visual, fills remaining height)
+└── Sidebar (layout-basic, flow, is-fixed=true, fixed-size=250) — vertical
+    ├── Filter: Region (filter, h=60)
+    ├── Filter: Category (filter, h=60)
+    ├── Filter: Date Range (filter, h=70)
+    └── Spacer (empty, fills remaining)
+```
+
+### Spacing with Empty Zones
+
+Use `empty` zones as spacers when you need precise gaps between elements:
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "zone",
+  "attrs": {
+    "id": 20,
+    "x": 0, "y": 300, "w": 1200, "h": 12,
+    "type-v2": "empty",
+    "is-fixed": true,
+    "fixed-size": 12
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The `is-fixed: true` with `fixed-size: 12` ensures the spacer remains exactly 12px regardless of dashboard resize behavior.
+
+### Background Color for Visual Grouping
+
+To set a container's background color, add a `format` child to the zone:
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "zone",
+  "attrs": { "id": 10, "type-v2": "layout-basic", ... },
+  "children": [
+    {
+      "type": "format",
+      "attrs": {
+        "attr": "fill",
+        "value": "#FFFFFF"
+      }
+    },
+    { "type": "zone", ... },
+    { "type": "zone", ... }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Use `#F5F5F5` or `#EEEEEE` for the root dashboard background and `#FFFFFF` for content group containers to create depth.
+
+### Coordinate Calculation
+
+Zone coordinates (`x`, `y`, `w`, `h`) are **relative to the parent container**. When planning a layout:
+
+1. Start with the root zone at `(0, 0, totalWidth, totalHeight)`.
+2. Allocate height to each row: title (36-40px), BAN row (80-100px), remaining to content.
+3. For horizontal splits, divide the parent's width among children.
+4. Account for gaps by subtracting spacing from available dimensions.
+
+**Example** — 1366x768 dashboard with title, BAN row, and 2x2 content grid with 8px gaps:
+
+```
+Root:        x=0,   y=0,   w=1366, h=768
+Title:       x=0,   y=0,   w=1366, h=36
+BAN row:     x=0,   y=44,  w=1366, h=90    ← 36 + 8 gap
+Content top: x=0,   y=142, w=1366, h=305   ← 44 + 90 + 8 gap
+  Left:      x=0,   y=0,   w=679,  h=305   ← (1366-8)/2
+  Right:     x=687, y=0,   w=679,  h=305   ← 679 + 8 gap
+Content bot: x=0,   y=455, w=1366, h=305   ← 142 + 305 + 8 gap
+  Left:      x=0,   y=0,   w=679,  h=305
+  Right:     x=687, y=0,   w=679,  h=305
+```
+
+Remaining height check: 455 + 305 = 760, leaving 8px bottom padding. Total = 768.
+

+
+## Examples
+
+### Example 1: Executive KPI Dashboard (Z-Pattern, 1366x768)
+
+**Audience**: Senior leadership reviewing weekly metrics
+**Layout**: Z-pattern with BAN row
+
+```
+┌──────────────────────────────────────┐
+│  Dashboard Title                      │  36px
+├────────┬────────┬────────┬───────────┤
+│ Rev $2.4M│ Orders 1.2K│ Margin 34%│ NPS 72 │  90px — BAN row
+├──────────────────┬───────────────────┤
+│ Revenue Trend     │ Revenue by Region │  310px — primary row
+│ (line chart)      │ (filled map)      │
+├──────────────────┼───────────────────┤
+│ Top Products      │ Monthly Detail    │  310px — secondary row
+│ (bar chart)       │ (crosstab)        │
+└──────────────────┴───────────────────┘
+```
+
+**Design decisions**:
+- Fixed sizing at 1366x768 (target: corporate laptops)
+- 4 BANs in `distribute-evenly` container
+- Revenue Trend at top-left as the focal point (Z-pattern position 1)
+- No sidebar filters — this is a read-only summary with date controlled by a parameter in the BAN row
+
+### Example 2: Operational Analyst Dashboard (F-Pattern, 1366x768)
+
+**Audience**: Operations analysts monitoring daily performance
+**Layout**: F-pattern with right sidebar filters
+
+```
+┌──────────────────────────────┬──────┐
+│  Dashboard Title              │      │
+├──────────────────────────────┤  F   │
+│  Daily Volume Trend           │  i   │  — tall primary viz, 450px
+│  (area chart, full width)     │  l   │
+│                               │  t   │
+├──────────┬───────────────────┤  e   │
+│ By Status │ By Category       │  r   │  — secondary row, 280px
+│ (donut)   │ (bar)             │  s   │
+└──────────┴───────────────────┴──────┘
+                                 250px
+```
+
+**Design decisions**:
+- Sidebar at 250px fixed width holds 4 dropdown filters (Region, Status, Date Range, Category)
+- Primary viz is tall (60% of content height) per the F-pattern — the eye lingers on the left/center
+- Secondary views are smaller and below the fold — analyst scrolls down or glances after absorbing the trend
+- `empty` spacer zones (8px) between the primary and secondary rows
+
+### Example 3: Presentation Dashboard (Z-Pattern, 1920x1080)
+
+**Audience**: Board presentation on a projector
+**Layout**: Z-pattern, large fonts, high contrast
+
+```
+┌───────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│           Quarterly Business Review             │  50px — large title
+├─────────────┬─────────────┬──────────┬────────┤
+│  Revenue     │  Profit      │  Growth   │ Churn  │  120px — oversized BANs
+│  $14.2M      │  $3.1M       │  +18%     │ 2.4%   │
+├──────────────────────────┬────────────────────┤
+│  Revenue by Quarter       │  Profit by Segment  │  430px
+│  (bar chart, large axis)  │  (stacked bar)      │
+├──────────────────────────┴────────────────────┤
+│  Regional Performance (horizontal bar, ranked) │  430px
+└───────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+**Design decisions**:
+- Fixed at 1920x1080 for full-HD projector
+- BAN row is 120px (taller than normal) for readability at distance
+- Only 3 charts + 4 BANs — simplicity is critical for presentations
+- No filters — this is a static snapshot for a specific time period
+- Large axis labels and chart titles (14pt+)
+- High-contrast color palette: dark blue on white
+
+### Example 4: Compact Embedded Widget (Inverted Pyramid, 800x600)
+
+**Audience**: Portal users viewing a summary widget
+**Layout**: Inverted pyramid, automatic sizing
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────┐
+│  Overall Score: 87 / 100     │  80px — single BAN
+├──────────────────────────────┤
+│  Score Trend (sparkline)     │  200px — context
+├──────────┬───────────────────┤
+│ By Team   │ By Category       │  300px — detail
+└──────────┴───────────────────┘
+```
+
+**Design decisions**:
+- Range sizing: min 600x400, max 1000x700 — adapts to portal container
+- Single BAN as the headline (inverted pyramid — key insight first)
+- Sparkline provides trend context without axis clutter
+- Two small breakdowns at the bottom for users who want detail
+- No title zone — the portal provides its own header
+- No filters — controlled externally via URL parameters or portal context

+### ⚠️ CRITICAL: Workbook vs Dashboard Application Order
+
+When applying dashboard changes that require viewpoints, you must follow the correct workflow to avoid overwriting your changes.
+
+**The Problem:**
+- `apply-workbook` replaces the **ENTIRE** workbook state in Tableau
+- If you apply a dashboard, then apply a stale workbook XML, the dashboard changes will be **OVERWRITTEN**
+- This happens because the workbook XML doesn't include the dashboard changes you just made
+
+**The Solution:**
+
+#### Option 1: Use `apply-dashboard-with-viewpoints` (Recommended)
+This tool handles both dashboard and viewpoints safely:
+1. Gets a **fresh** workbook from Tableau (includes your dashboard changes)
+2. Adds viewpoints to the dashboard window
+3. Applies workbook with viewpoints
+4. Applies dashboard XML
+
+```typescript
+// ✅ CORRECT - Safe workflow
+apply-dashboard-with-viewpoints({
+  dashboard_name: "My Dashboard",
+  dashboard_file: "path/to/dashboard.xml",
+  worksheet_names: ["Sheet 1", "Sheet 2"]
+})
+```
+
+#### Option 2: Manual Workflow (If you must)
+If you need to manually edit the workbook XML:
+
+1. **Apply dashboard first:**
+   ```typescript
+   apply-dashboard({
+     dashboard_name: "My Dashboard",
+     dashboard_file: "path/to/dashboard.xml"
+   })
+   ```
+
+2. **Get FRESH workbook (includes dashboard changes):**
+   ```typescript
+   const { workbook_file } = get-workbook-xml()
+   ```
+
+3. **Edit workbook to add viewpoints:**
+   - Modify the dashboard window's `<viewpoints>` element
+   - Add `<viewpoint>` entries for each worksheet
+
+4. **Apply workbook:**
+   ```typescript
+   apply-workbook({ workbook_file })
+   ```
+
+#### ❌ WRONG - This Will Overwrite Dashboard:
+```typescript
+// ❌ WRONG - Stale workbook overwrites dashboard
+apply-dashboard({ dashboard_name, dashboard_file })
+apply-workbook({ workbook_file: "old/stale/workbook.xml" }) // Overwrites dashboard!
+```
+
+### Key Rules:
+
+1. **Never apply a workbook XML that was fetched before applying a dashboard** - it will overwrite your dashboard changes
+2. **Always get a fresh workbook after applying a dashboard** if you need to modify viewpoints
+3. **Prefer `apply-dashboard-with-viewpoints`** - it handles this automatically
+4. **When in doubt, get a fresh workbook** with `get-workbook-xml()` before applying
+
+### Viewpoints Requirement
+
+Every worksheet referenced in a dashboard's zones **MUST** have a corresponding viewpoint in the dashboard's window element:
+
+```xml
+<window class="dashboard" name="My Dashboard">
+  <viewpoints>
+    <viewpoint name="Sheet 1">
+      <zoom type="entire-view"/>
+    </viewpoint>
+    <viewpoint name="Sheet 2">
+      <zoom type="entire-view"/>
+    </viewpoint>
+  </viewpoints>
+</window>
+```
+
+Without viewpoints, Tableau will reject the dashboard with an internal error.

+# Operational and Pipeline Dashboard Pattern
+
+SE knowledge entry for field expertise that may later be reviewed for promotion into the Tableau authoring expertise layer.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, format, govern, safely decline
+- In-scope reason: Defines the layout, column selection framework, companion principle, and scope boundaries for operational/pipeline dashboards — the most action-oriented dashboard type — so Claude can guide users building task queues and work-management views correctly.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: dashboard, operational, pipeline, task-queue, companion, layout, column-selection, when-to-say-no
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "what columns should I show in my task list", "how to build a work queue dashboard", "case management dashboard layout", "loan pipeline view", "what to include in an operations dashboard", "users need to see their work queue", "show tasks that need to be done", "pipeline or queue dashboard pattern", "should I put action buttons in Tableau", "too many columns on my task table"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when a customer is building a dashboard whose primary purpose is to show users **what tasks need to be done** — a work queue, pipeline view, case list, or activity log where the viewer is expected to act, not just observe.
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Loan processing, underwriting, or servicing queues
+- Case management or compliance task lists
+- Sales pipeline or opportunity management views
+- Any dashboard where the user opens it to find out what to work on next
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### The Companion Principle
+
+An operational dashboard is a **companion to the operating system, not a substitute for it.**
+
+The dashboard tells the user what to do and gives them just enough context to prioritize. The actual work — updating records, completing tasks, changing statuses — happens in the operating system (loan origination system, CRM, ticketing platform, etc.) open in another tab or window.
+
+This principle defines the entire scope of the dashboard and is the correct answer to almost every "can we add X" request. If X belongs in the operating system, it does not belong in the dashboard.
+
+### Standard Layout
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│  Header + subtitle + contact + data currency │
+├──────────┬──────────────────────────────────┤
+│ Record   │                                  │
+│ count    │                                  │
+│ + time   │   Task / Work Queue Table        │
+│ context  │   (relevant columns only)        │
+│          │                                  │
+│ Filters  │                                  │
+│          │                                  │
+└──────────┴──────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+**Left panel (always visible):**
+- At the top: a single count showing how many records are currently displayed, with time context (e.g., "47 items due today", "12 files outstanding this week")
+- Below the count: all filters needed to work the queue
+
+**Main canvas:**
+- A detail table listing all tasks or pipeline items
+- Relevant columns only — nothing extra
+
+### Column Selection: The Bare Minimum Test
+
+Before adding any column to the task table, ask the business user:
+
+> What is the bare minimum you need to complete this task, or to prioritize it against other items on the screen?
+
+Include a column only if it passes one of these tests:
+
+1. **Directs the user to the task** — a record ID, case number, or reference that lets them find and open the right item in the operating system
+2. **Enables prioritization** — time-based fields like days since last contact, days until closing date, or days in current status
+3. **Surfaces information that is hard to see in the operating system on the same screen** — fields the operating system buries in sub-screens or requires navigation to find
+
+Exclude everything else. If the operating system shows it clearly, the dashboard does not need to duplicate it.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Say no when users ask to add columns, filters, or features that push the dashboard beyond its role as a companion.
+
+**Common requests to decline:**
+
+- **Additional fields "just to have them"** — every extra column competes for screen space and dilutes focus. Hold the line on bare minimum.
+- **PII fields** (names, addresses, phone numbers, emails) — Tableau does not inherit operating system access controls; see `pii-and-fair-lending-exclusions.md`.
+- **Financially sensitive fields** (FICO scores, loan amounts) — enables cherry-picking and creates fair lending exposure; see `pii-and-fair-lending-exclusions.md`.
+- **Action buttons or status update controls** — if users want to mark tasks complete or update records from within Tableau, redirect them to the operating system. Tableau is not the system of record.
+- **Embedded operating system screens or iframes** — the dashboard is a companion, not a portal into the OS.
+
+Recommended wording for scope creep:
+
+> This dashboard is designed to tell your team what to work on and help them prioritize. The actual work happens in your operating system — the loan origination system, CRM, or ticketing platform. Adding that feature would turn the dashboard into a second operating system, which creates maintenance overhead and access control complexity we want to avoid. Let's keep this focused on what needs doing and let your operating system handle the doing.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **Including too many columns.** A 15-column task table overwhelms users and defeats the prioritization purpose. Apply the bare minimum test ruthlessly — 5–8 columns is typically the right range.
+- **No record count or time context.** Without a count and time context, users don't know if they're looking at today's queue, this week's backlog, or everything since the beginning of time. The count above the filters is essential.
+- **Filters separated from the task table.** If filters live at the top of a long page and the task table is below the fold, users have to scroll up to filter and scroll down to see results. Keep filters left-side and adjacent to the table — or put the detail on its own tab with filters proximate.
+- **Trying to replace the operating system.** Adding update buttons, status dropdowns, or action controls turns the dashboard into a UI — which it is not designed or governed to be.
+- **Including sensitive fields in the dataset.** Anything in the underlying data can be exported. Exclusion happens at the data source level, not the viz level.
+
+## Implementation
+
+To build an operational/pipeline dashboard:
+
+1. **Define the record set** with the business user: what population of tasks or items should appear, and over what time window (today, this week, all open items)?
+2. **Apply the bare minimum test** to agree on columns before building. Get sign-off on the column list before any development starts.
+3. **Exclude sensitive fields from the dataset** (PII, FICO scores, loan amounts) at the data source level — not via filters or hidden fields.
+4. **Build the layout:**
+   - Left panel: record count + time context label at top, filters below
+   - Main canvas: task table with approved columns only
+   - Apply the filter threshold rule from `dashboard-template-anatomy.md` (≤10 filters visible, 10+ collapsible floating panel)
+5. **Include all standard template elements** from `dashboard-template-anatomy.md`: header, subtitle, help contact, and data currency (refreshed as of + current as of).
+6. **Route through peer review** before production. Reviewer confirms column list matches the approved bare minimum, sensitive fields are absent from the dataset, and template elements are complete.

+# Datasources: Connections, Data Models & Relationships
+
+Strategy guide for datasource modeling decisions — when to use a live connection vs. an extract vs. a published source, when relationships beat joins, when (and when not) to accept custom SQL, and how to push back on choices that will hurt the customer. This is a judgment companion; it defers the XML and connection-editing mechanics to the tactics file.
+
+Tags: datasources, relationships, joins, custom-sql, data-model
+
+**Tactics companion:** `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/datasources` — the XML/authoring mechanics for this topic.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: This guides Claude when deciding between relationships versus joins, refactoring custom SQL, and building entity-level scoring calculations like RFM that support dashboard analysis.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: datasources, relationships, joins, custom-sql, data-model, extract, published-datasource, live-connection, rfm, entity-scoring, fan-out, chasm-trap
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "should I use a relationship or a join", "custom SQL vs native tables in Tableau", "when to publish a datasource", "how to refactor custom SQL in Tableau", "RFM scoring in Tableau", "my joins are inflating row counts", "extract vs live connection", "per-customer scores aggregating wrong", "GROUP BY before Tableau sees the data", "relationship fan-out problem", "relationships vs joins", "custom SQL datasource", "how do I connect to a published datasource", "sqlproxy connection class", "refactor custom SQL to native tables", "RFM segmentation calculated fields", "contentUrl not working", "fan-out chasm trap"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+- **A customer asks about relationships vs. joins** in the data model
+- **Explaining how to refactor a custom SQL datasource** into native tables
+- **Discussing published vs. embedded datasources** and when to use each
+- **Building RFM segmentation calculated fields** on a CRM datasource
+- **Explaining connection class differences** (live vs. extract vs. published)
+
+---
+
+## Connection Types
+
+| Type | How it works | When to use |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Live connection** | Queries the database in real-time | Always-fresh data; small/fast databases |
+| **Extract (.hyper)** | Snapshot stored locally; queries run in-memory | Performance; dashboards for users without DB access; offline |
+| **Published datasource** | Centrally managed on Tableau Server/Cloud | Shared, governed data; single source of truth for multiple workbooks |
+
+Decision guidance: default to **live** when the source is fast and freshness matters; switch to an **extract** when query latency, offline use, or relieving load on the source database dominates; recommend **publishing** the moment more than one workbook depends on the same fields and refresh. For the extract/publish mechanics, see the tactics companion.
+
+---
+
+## The Tableau Data Model: Relationships vs. Joins
+
+### Relationships (recommended default)
+
+Relationships are the modern way to connect multiple tables in Tableau (introduced in 2020.2). They are the default option in the data model.
+
+**How they work:**
+- Tables stay separate — Tableau queries each at the right level of detail and merges results
+- No row duplication (no fan-out/chasm trap)
+- Measures from each table aggregate correctly at their own grain
+- Null behavior is handled gracefully
+
+**When to use:** whenever you're connecting two or more tables that each have their own grain (e.g., Orders and Customers, Transactions and Dates).
+
+### Joins (legacy / specific use cases)
+
+Joins flatten multiple tables into a single combined table at query time.
+
+**Downsides:**
+- Fan-out: joining a fact table to a dimension with multiple matching rows duplicates rows, inflating SUM aggregates
+- Chasm trap: joining two fact tables through a shared dimension can produce cartesian products
+
+**When joins are still appropriate:**
+- Combining columns from tables with a strict 1:1 row relationship
+- Using data sources that don't support relationships (some older connector types)
+- When the customer needs a cross-database join (two different databases)
+
+**Push-back rule:** if someone reaches for a join to combine tables of different grain "because that's how SQL does it," steer them to a relationship instead — the join will silently inflate their SUMs via fan-out. Reserve joins for strict 1:1 column-stitching, unsupported connectors, or cross-database needs. For where joins are configured (the physical layer), see the tactics companion.
+
+---
+
+## Custom SQL Datasources
+
+Some customers connect to databases using a **custom SQL query** instead of selecting tables. Tableau can use these as a datasource.
+
+**Pros:** lets customers use views, CTEs, complex pre-aggregations, or SQL expressions that Tableau can't express natively.
+
+**Cons:** blocks Tableau's query optimizer; hides the data model; aggregations computed in SQL can't be re-sliced by Tableau dimensions without re-running the SQL; prevents using relationships.
+
+**Push-back rule:** accept custom SQL only when it does something Tableau genuinely cannot express natively (a CTE, a view, a window pre-aggregation the customer truly needs). If the SQL exists only to compute a column or a `GROUP BY` rollup, that logic belongs in a Tableau calculated field or `FIXED` LOD instead — keeping it in SQL throws away re-slicing and optimization for no benefit. For where to enter custom SQL, see the tactics companion.
+
+### Refactoring Custom SQL to Native Tables
+
+When a customer has a custom SQL datasource and wants to modernize it, the goal is to replace the SQL with native table connections using relationships.
+
+**Step-by-step:**
+1. **Read the SQL** to identify the physical tables (FROM and JOIN clauses) and the join keys
+2. **Identify computed columns** — any `CASE`, `SUM() GROUP BY`, window functions, or derived expressions become Tableau calculated fields
+3. **Set up the native connection** — add each table and define relationships using the identified join keys
+4. **Translate computed columns** — see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/sql-translation` for the SQL → Tableau lookup table
+5. **Validate** — build side-by-side comparison views on the old vs. new datasource, checking that totals and breakdowns match
+
+**Validation approach:** create one worksheet showing a key metric using the old custom SQL datasource, and a matching worksheet using the new native datasource. Place both on a dashboard and compare totals and per-dimension breakdowns.
+
+---
+
+## Published vs. Embedded Datasources
+
+| | Embedded (in-workbook) | Published (on server) |
+|---|---|---|
+| Location | Stored inside the `.twb`/`.twbx` | Separate object on Tableau Server/Cloud |
+| Sharing | Workbook carries the connection | Multiple workbooks can share one source |
+| Governance | Each workbook has its own copy | Certified single source; updates propagate |
+| Extract refresh | Scheduled per-workbook | One refresh schedule applies to all users |
+| Best for | One-off or personal analysis | Shared, governed organizational data |
+
+**When to recommend publishing a datasource:** if two or more workbooks use the same data (same fields, same extract), the customer should publish it once. Otherwise every workbook has its own refresh schedule and definition to maintain.
+
+### Connecting to a Published Datasource via XML (sqlproxy)
+
+**Confirmed working pattern (field-tested 2026-06-22).**
+
+Use `class='sqlproxy'` with the datasource's `contentUrl` slug (not its LUID) as `dbname`. The `server` and `site` values come from the Tableau Server/Cloud config.
+
+```xml
+<datasource caption='My Published DS' inline='true' name='federated.mypubds01'>
+  <connection class='sqlproxy'
+              dbname='MyDatasourceContentUrl'
+              server='https://10az.online.tableau.com/'
+              site='mysitename' />
+</datasource>
+```
+
+**Getting the `contentUrl`:** the LUID (the UUID you get from a datasource list response or the REST API list endpoint) is **not** the same as `contentUrl`. Retrieve it via the REST API:
+
+```
+GET /api/{version}/sites/{siteId}/datasources/{luid}
+→ <datasource contentUrl="MyDatasourceContentUrl" ... />
+```
+
+**Key rules:**
+
+| Attribute | Value |
+|---|---|
+| `class` | `sqlproxy` (always, for published datasources) |
+| `dbname` | `contentUrl` slug from the REST API — **not** the LUID |
+| `server` | Full Tableau Server/Cloud URL (e.g. `https://10az.online.tableau.com/`) |
+| `site` | Site `contentUrl` (the slug after `/site/` in the browser URL; empty string for the default site) |
+
+**What does NOT work:**
+- Using the LUID as `dbname` → Tableau throws `errorCode=11` ("Datasource with URL ... could not be found")
+- Omitting `server` or `site` → Tableau prompts the user to edit the connection
+
+**Limitations:** Tableau Desktop must already be signed in to the server, or it will prompt for credentials on load. Programmatic authentication is not bypassed by this XML pattern.
+
+---
+
+---
+
+## Entity-Grain Scoring (RFM and Similar): a Modeling Decision
+
+RFM (Recency, Frequency, Monetary) and similar customer-scoring techniques are the classic case where the *datasource grain* and the *analysis grain* diverge, and that divergence drives the modeling choice. The transactional source has one row per opportunity/order, but the question — "how valuable is this account?" — is per-account. That mismatch is exactly what `FIXED` LOD exists for.
+
+**The strategic calls:**
+- **Score at the entity grain, not the view grain.** Each base metric (recency, frequency, monetary) must be a per-account `FIXED` LOD so the value is stable however the viz is later sliced. A view-level `SUM` gives the wrong base for scoring and shifts as filters change.
+- **Take cutoffs from the distribution.** Range- or percentile-based 1–5 scoring needs table-scoped `{FIXED : MIN/MAX}` (or `PERCENTILE`) over the per-account values — compute the entity values first, then the global distribution over them. Prefer percentile cutoffs over linear range-mapping when the distribution is skewed (see the calc-fields strategy file).
+- **Guard the data-quality assumptions.** Filters like `Stage = 'Closed Won'` inside the LOD are case- and whitespace-sensitive; a near-miss returns all nulls. Confirm the literal matches the data before trusting the scores.
+
+For the concrete base-metric, 1–5 scoring, and segment-label formulas, see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/lod-and-table-calc-patterns` (RFM Segmentation section).
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Prefer relationships over joins** for multi-table datasources. Relationships handle grain differences correctly without row duplication.
+- **Use published datasources for shared organizational data.** Embed datasources only for personal or one-off analysis.
+- **Avoid custom SQL unless necessary.** It blocks query optimization and makes the data model opaque. If the SQL only exists to define a computed column, turn that into a Tableau calculated field instead.
+- **For RFM or similar per-entity scoring, use FIXED LOD.** The per-account aggregation must be done at the account grain — a view-level SUM doesn't give you the right base for scoring.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Using joins when relationships would work.** Joins inflate row counts when the join key isn't 1:1. Relationships avoid this automatically.
+2. **Custom SQL with a GROUP BY aggregating the data before Tableau can slice it.** Once data is pre-aggregated in SQL, Tableau can't disaggregate it — you lose the ability to drill down. Move the aggregation into a FIXED LOD so Tableau can re-aggregate at any level.
+3. **Mixing published and embedded datasources on the same dashboard without realizing it.** Cross-datasource calculations won't work, and the field names in each source may not match for blending.
+4. **RFM scores returning null or 0 for all accounts.** Check whether the `Stage = 'Closed Won'` filter in the FIXED LOD returns any results — if the stage name has a different case or whitespace, the LOD returns all nulls.
+5. **Not validating after a custom SQL to native tables migration.** Always build side-by-side comparison views before decommissioning the old datasource.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+This is a decision/governance workflow, not a connection-editing recipe:
+
+1. **Establish freshness, performance, and sharing needs first** — they decide live vs. extract vs. published before any table is touched.
+2. **Map the grains.** List each table's grain and the analysis grain. Different grains → relationships; strict 1:1 column-stitching → a join; entity-vs-transaction mismatch → `FIXED` LOD scoring.
+3. **Interrogate any custom SQL.** Does it do something Tableau cannot? If not, plan to refactor it to native tables + calculated fields, and validate side-by-side before decommissioning.
+4. **Recommend governance.** If more than one workbook needs the data, recommend publishing once rather than embedding copies.
+5. **Hand off to mechanics.** Once the model is decided, build the connection, relationships, and extracts using `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/datasources`, then verify totals and breakdowns in Tableau.

+# Field Hygiene: Naming & Type/Role Correctness
+
+Heuristics for spotting field-level data-model problems by inspecting the data pane — poor names, and fields whose *stored type or role* contradicts what their *name* says they are. These are portable modeling-hygiene signals (true of any BI tool's field list), used to flag issues before you build on a shaky field, or to advise a customer cleaning up a data source.
+
+Tags: field-naming, data-hygiene, type-mismatch, role-mismatch, schema-quality, data-modeling
+
+**Related strategy:** `expertise://tableau/strategy/data-modeling/datasource-strategy` (the connection/relationship decisions that surround this) and `expertise://tableau/strategy/analytics/field-types-reference` (what roles/types *are*). The publish-time consistency gate is `expertise://tableau/strategy/dashboard-design/dashboard-peer-review-checklist` (Data Pane Hygiene section) — this file is the *detection heuristics*; that file is the *review gate*.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: validate, refine, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: When the agent inspects a data source's fields (before authoring, or when a customer asks "is this data source clean?"), these heuristics let it flag mis-typed, mis-roled, or badly-named fields that will otherwise produce wrong aggregations, broken date logic, or an unmaintainable data pane.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: field-naming, data-hygiene, type-mismatch, role-mismatch, schema-quality, data-modeling, snake-case, id-as-measure, date-as-string, systemic-finding, naming-convention
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "is this data source clean", "why is my date sorting wrong", "my sum is counting IDs", "field names are messy", "clean up my data pane", "date field stored as string", "field naming conventions Tableau", "why is my count field a string", "ID field showing as measure", "field hygiene check", "audit my data source fields"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this when:
+- **Inspecting a data source before authoring** — catch a date-stored-as-string or an ID-as-measure *before* you build a broken time series or an inflated total on it.
+- **A customer asks "is this data source clean?"** or wants a hygiene pass over their fields.
+- **A total or a sort looks wrong** and the cause may be a mis-typed field rather than the calc.
+- **Advising on naming standards** for a shared/published data source that many workbooks will consume.
+
+This is a *modeling-hygiene* lens, not a publish gate. The peer-review checklist enforces that field names are *consistent across dashboards* at publish time; this file is about detecting the *intrinsic* problems (wrong type, cryptic name) in the first place.
+
+---
+
+## Type & Role Mismatches (highest impact)
+
+A field whose stored type or role contradicts its name is the most damaging class — it silently produces wrong results, not just an ugly pane. Infer intent from the name, compare to the stored type/role:
+
+| Signal | Name pattern (word-boundary match) | Stored as | Severity | Why it matters |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| **Date as string** | `date`, `time`, `created`, `updated`, `timestamp` | `string` | **High** | No date math, no relative-date filters, sorts lexically ("Apr" before "Jan"). Parsing was skipped at connect. |
+| **Number as string** | `count`, `amount`, `qty`, `price`, `total`, `rate`, `pct`, `percent`, `revenue`, `cost` | `string` | **High** | Can't aggregate or put on a continuous axis without a cast; SUM/AVG unavailable. |
+| **ID as measure** | `id`, `key`, `code`, `number`/`nbr` | role = **measure** | **Medium** | Tableau will `SUM` it by default — summing customer IDs is meaningless and can silently appear in totals. IDs should be dimensions. |
+| **Boolean as string** | `is_`, `has_`, `flag`, `active`, `enabled` | `string` | **Low** | `"True"`/`"true"`/`"Y"` won't behave as a boolean; filters and IF tests get brittle. |
+| **Role/category mismatch** | — | role = dimension but data is quantitative, or vice-versa | **Low** | Wrong default shelf behavior (headers vs axis). |
+
+**False-positive guards (apply before flagging):**
+- **Match on word boundaries**, not substrings — `"considered"` must not trip the `id` check; `"update_status"` (a string status) is not a date.
+- **Check for an intentional cast.** A *calculated* field named `date_str` whose formula is `STR([Order Date])` is deliberately a string — inspect the formula; if it shows an intentional conversion, drop the severity or skip.
+- **Parameters are exempt** — they're typed by design, not by the source.
+
+---
+
+## Naming Violations
+
+Portable naming smells, by severity. These hurt readability and maintainability rather than correctness:
+
+| Signal | Pattern | Severity |
+|---|---|---|
+| **System API suffix, un-aliased** | ends in `__c` / `__r` (Salesforce), or similar source-generated tails | Medium |
+| **Cryptic abbreviation** | < 4 chars and not a common exception (`id`, `qty`, `amt`, `pct`, `yr`) | Medium |
+| **Generic placeholder name** | `value`, `field`, `col`, `data`, `info`, `item`, optionally with a trailing digit | Medium |
+| **Raw snake_case, not cleaned** | `three_or_more_words` left as-is | Low |
+| **camelCase / no spaces** | `customerName` | Low |
+| **SCREAMING_CASE** | `TOTAL_REVENUE` | Low |
+| **Table-qualified noise** | field name repeats its logical-table caption | Low |
+
+The goal is human-readable, business-facing names: `Loan Number`, not `loan_nbr` / `LN_NUM` / `__c`. For a *shared* data source, the same field must carry the same name everywhere it's consumed (that consistency rule is enforced at the review gate).
+
+---
+
+## Report Systemically, Not Field-by-Field
+
+A raw list of 60 fields each flagged individually is noise. Aggregate:
+
+- **When more than ~10 fields match the same pattern**, report it as **one systemic finding** with the top 3–5 examples, not 10+ separate items. E.g. *"32 fields are raw snake_case (`order_date`, `customer_region`, `ship_mode`, …) — the source was connected without cleaning field names."*
+- **Escalate severity one level when >50% of fields share the defect** — a source where most fields are un-cast strings is a connection-time problem (wrong parse), not a per-field nit.
+- **Reduce severity for auto-generated fields** (bins, groups, calculated placeholders) and for sandbox/scratch data sources.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. **List the fields** with their role, data type, and (for calcs) formula — via the data pane or a metadata read.
+2. **Run the type/role pass first** — it's the correctness-affecting one. For each field, infer intent from the name and compare to the stored type/role; apply the false-positive guards (word boundaries, intentional-cast check, parameter exemption).
+3. **Run the naming pass** — flag the smells above, but only after confirming there's no alias already fixing the display name.
+4. **Aggregate to systemic findings** — collapse >10 same-pattern hits into one, escalate if >50% affected.
+5. **Report by impact:** high-severity type mismatches first (they produce wrong numbers), then naming (readability). For each, give the fix: *change data type / change to dimension / add an alias / rename at the source*.
+6. **Prefer fixing at the source or published data source**, not per-workbook — a rename or re-type in one embedded copy doesn't help the next workbook.
+
+### Confirmed example
+
+A data source with fields `order_date (string)`, `sales_amt (string)`, `cust_id (measure)`, `customerName (string)`, and 28 other raw snake_case fields:
+
+- **High:** `order_date` is a string → no date math or relative-date filters; re-type to date at the source. `sales_amt` is a string → can't SUM; re-type to real/integer.
+- **Medium:** `cust_id` is a measure → will be summed by default; change to dimension. `cust_id` is also a cryptic abbreviation → alias to `Customer ID`.
+- **Systemic (Low, escalated):** 30 of ~32 fields are raw snake_case (>50%) → connected without name cleaning; recommend aliasing at the source rather than 30 per-workbook renames.
+
+**What does NOT work:**
+- **Substring matching** — flagging `"considered"` as an ID or `"update_frequency"` as a date. Always match on word boundaries.
+- **Flagging an intentional cast** — a calc `STR([Date])` named `date_label` is a string on purpose; read the formula before calling it a mismatch.
+- **Listing every field separately** — 40 individual naming dings read as noise and get ignored; collapse to systemic findings.
+- **Fixing type/role in one workbook's embedded copy** — the next workbook on the same source inherits the same bad field. Fix upstream.
+- **Renaming a Salesforce `__c` field by editing the source schema** — you alias it in Tableau (or the published source); you don't touch the API name.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Type correctness before naming.** A mis-typed field produces *wrong answers*; a badly-named one only produces friction. Triage accordingly.
+- **Infer from the name, verify against the store.** The name is the intent; the stored type/role is the reality; the gap is the finding.
+- **Guard against false positives** — word boundaries, intentional casts, parameter exemptions — before you raise anything.
+- **Aggregate systemically** — one finding for a pervasive pattern, with examples, beats a flat list.
+- **Fix upstream.** Prefer a re-type/alias at the source or published data source so every downstream workbook benefits.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Substring instead of word-boundary matching** — `id` inside `"considered"`, `date` inside `"candidate"`, producing false flags.
+2. **Calling an intentional string cast a "mismatch"** — a calc that deliberately `STR()`s a value is not a defect.
+3. **Field-by-field noise** — reporting 30 individual snake_case fields instead of one systemic finding.
+4. **Fixing per-workbook** — re-typing in one embedded copy while every other workbook on the source keeps the bad field.
+5. **Treating naming smells as correctness bugs** — a `camelCase` name is a readability nit; deducting from it as if it broke a number is miscalibrated.

+# Tableau Workbook File Structure
+
+Reference guide to the anatomy of a Tableau workbook — covering the TWB/TWBX format, major sections, and what each section controls. Useful for understanding where things live when troubleshooting or reviewing a customer's workbook.
+
+Tags: workbook-structure, twb, twbx, xml, anatomy
+
+**Tactics companion:** `expertise://tableau/tactics/tree/workbook-structure` — the XML/authoring mechanics for this topic.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: troubleshoot, refine
+- In-scope reason: This helps Claude understand where settings live in a workbook when troubleshooting broken workbooks or explaining why workbook files are unexpectedly large during authoring.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: workbook-structure, twb, twbx, xml, anatomy, datasources, worksheets, dashboards, parameters, connection-class
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "what's inside a TWB file", "difference between TWB and TWBX", "where are calculated fields stored", "workbook file structure", "why is my workbook file so large", "extract embedded in workbook", "where are parameters defined", "can I open a TWB in a text editor", "workbook section breakdown", "connection types in Tableau XML"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+- **Opening a workbook file** and wanting to understand its structure
+- **Troubleshooting a broken workbook** — knowing which sections to inspect
+- **Explaining to a customer** what a `.twb` vs `.twbx` file contains
+- **Understanding why workbook size is large** — knowing which sections hold data
+
+---
+
+## TWB vs TWBX
+
+| Format | Contains | When to use |
+|---|---|---|
+| `.twb` | XML only — no embedded data | When the datasource is live (server, database, published) |
+| `.twbx` | Zipped package: `.twb` + data files (`.hyper` extract, images, custom shapes) | When the datasource is a local extract that needs to travel with the workbook |
+
+A `.twbx` is just a zip file. If you need to inspect or edit it without Tableau, rename it to `.zip` and extract it. The TWB XML file inside is the workbook definition.
+
+---
+
+## TWB File Structure Overview
+
+A Tableau workbook XML file is organized into a handful of major sections, in order: version-compatibility metadata, workbook-level preferences, the datasources block (all data connections, field definitions, and a dedicated `Parameters` datasource), one entry per worksheet, one per dashboard, and a UI-state block describing what's visible in Desktop. For the literal XML tree and the XPath/ElementTree navigation that walks it, see `expertise://tableau/tactics/tree/workbook-structure`.
+
+### What each section controls
+
+| Section | What's in it | Where you see it in Desktop |
+|---|---|---|
+| `datasources` | Connection strings, field definitions, calculated fields, aliases | Data pane (left sidebar), Data menu |
+| `worksheets` | Rows/cols shelf config, mark type, filters, encodings, sort | Every sheet tab |
+| `dashboards` | Zone layout, actions, sizing mode | Dashboard tabs |
+| `windows` | Which cards are shown, parameter controls, filter cards | Marks card, Filters shelf, Pages shelf |
+
+---
+
+## Datasources Section
+
+Each datasource node represents one data connection. Key things it contains:
+- **Connection details** — server, database, file path (for extracts and files)
+- **Column definitions** — every field's name, data type, and role
+- **Calculated fields** — formula-based fields stored as column definitions with a formula child
+- **Aliases** — custom member labels
+- **Groups and sets** — predefined groupings
+
+The `Parameters` datasource is a special child that holds all parameter definitions. Parameters are always in this separate, dedicated datasource — never in a data datasource.
+
+Each connection kind (local extract, Excel, text/CSV, a relational database, or a published datasource) is identified by a distinct `class` token on the connection node, and relational sources sit inside a `federated` wrapper. For the exact `class=` token per connection type, see `expertise://tableau/tactics/tree/workbook-structure`.
+
+---
+
+## Worksheets Section
+
+Each worksheet node holds:
+- **View configuration** — which datasource fields are used
+- **Shelf content** — what's on Rows, Columns, Color, Size, etc.
+- **Mark type** — Bar, Line, Circle, Gantt Bar, etc.
+- **Filters** — dimension, measure, date, Top N filters
+- **Sort settings** — field-based sorts
+- **Table calculations** — Compute Using configuration
+
+---
+
+## Dashboards Section
+
+Each dashboard node holds:
+- **Zone layout** — which sheets appear where, in what size
+- **Device layouts** — phone/tablet responsive variations
+- **Dashboard actions** — filter actions, highlight actions, URL/Go To Sheet actions
+
+Dashboard actions are actually stored at the workbook root level (a sibling to `worksheets` and `dashboards`), not inside the dashboard node itself.
+
+---
+
+## What to Never Modify
+
+If you ever need to open a `.twb` file in a text editor:
+
+| Section | Why not to touch it |
+|---|---|
+| `document-format-change-manifest` | Version compatibility metadata — changing it can break the workbook |
+| `connection` / `named-connections` | Live database/file connection strings — modifying them breaks the data source |
+| `repository-location` | Server publish path — editing this confuses Tableau about where the workbook lives |
+| `datasource name="Parameters"` | Parameter definitions — Tableau manages this strictly |
+
+---
+
+## Common Workbook File Issues
+
+**Workbook file is unexpectedly large:**
+- Check if it's a `.twbx` with a large `.hyper` extract embedded
+- Check if there are many custom shapes or high-res background images embedded
+- Published datasource connections (`.twb` only) are tiny; embedded extracts (`.twbx`) can be hundreds of MB
+
+**Workbook won't open:**
+- Try opening just the `.twb` (extract the XML from the `.twbx` zip)
+- Check if the workbook was saved on a newer Tableau version than the one opening it — Tableau is not backward-compatible by major version
+- Look for XML encoding issues if the workbook has fields with special characters in their names
+
+**Sharing a workbook with someone who doesn't have the data:**
+- Save as `.twbx` — this packages the extract with the workbook
+- For live connections, the recipient needs their own database credentials
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Save extracts as `.twbx` for portability.** A `.twb` referencing a local extract file is useless on another machine.
+- **Use published datasources when possible.** This keeps the connection config in one place on the server and makes workbooks smaller.
+- **Keep calculated fields at the datasource level**, not defined per-worksheet. Datasource-level calcs are available in every worksheet and easier to maintain.
+- **Parameter controls need to be shown explicitly.** Parameters defined in the workbook are invisible until you right-click them → Show Parameter Control.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- Treating this guidance as generic SE enablement rather than Tableau authoring guidance.
+- Applying the pattern without checking whether it fits the dashboard, visualization, or workbook context.
+- Skipping validation in Tableau after making authoring changes.
+
+## Implementation
+
+Use this file to reason about where a given setting lives — connection strings and calcs in datasources, shelf config in worksheets, zone layout in dashboards, parameters in their dedicated datasource — and to explain TWB vs TWBX trade-offs to a customer. When you need to actually navigate or edit that XML, switch to the tactics companion `expertise://tableau/tactics/tree/workbook-structure`, then verify any change in Tableau Desktop before sharing the workbook.

+# Advanced Chart Build Recipes
+
+How to build the advanced/"hacked" chart types Show Me won't make for you — mark type, shelf setup, key calculations, and the addressing that makes or breaks each one.
+
+The build-mechanics layer beneath chart choice: chart-selection decides *which* chart; this is *how to construct* the hard ones.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create
+- In-scope reason: Once chart-selection has decided *which* advanced chart answers the question, this gives the concrete build — mark type, shelves, calcs, Compute Using — so the agent can construct sankey/waterfall/bump/bullet/dumbbell/etc. instead of only naming them.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: advanced-charts, chart-builds, dual-axis, table-calculations, densification, pareto, bump, waterfall, dumbbell, sankey, bullet-graph, small-multiples, marimekko, donut, compute-using
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how do I build a sankey", "make a waterfall chart", "bump chart", "dumbbell chart", "bullet graph", "Pareto chart", "control chart", "small multiples", "build a funnel", "radial bar chart", "donut chart", "dual axis combo chart", "lollipop chart", "marimekko"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this when a user wants a specific advanced chart built and you need the mechanic — mark type, shelf layout, the calcs, and the table-calc addressing. For *which* chart the question calls for (and whether to push back on a poor choice), see [Chart Type Selection](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/chart-selection.md); for the calc formulas behind these (running total, rank, LOD, sigmoid), see [LOD & Table-Calc Pattern Cookbook](data/knowledge/tactics/data/lod-and-table-calc-patterns.md); charts needing reshaped/densified input cross-reference data-modeling (a `data/knowledge/data-modeling/` follow-up).
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Foundations you reuse constantly
+
+**Mark type is the primary lever.** Quick map: Bar (bar/histogram/stacked), Line (time/slope/bump/sparkline), Area (area/centered funnel), Square (highlight table/heat map/treemap), Circle (scatter/jitter/dumbbell ends/lollipop heads), Gantt Bar (timeline/**waterfall**), Pie (pie/donut/pie-on-map), Polygon (custom maps/sankey curves/radial fill), Density (point-cloud heat maps), Map (filled choropleth).
+
+**Combining measures — the backbone of most advanced charts:**
+- **Individual axes:** drag multiple continuous measures to Rows/Columns — separate panes, independent scales.
+- **Blended axis:** drop one measure onto an existing axis (double-ruler indicator) — shared axis via Measure Names/Values.
+- **Dual axis:** two overlaid axes in one pane. Right-click the 2nd pill → **Dual Axis**, then right-click axis → **Synchronize Axis** (only enabled when both are the same numeric type). **Move Marks to Back/Front** controls layering. Dual axis auto-adds Measure Names to Color — remove it for independent per-measure encoding.
+
+**⚠ Table-calc addressing is the #1 failure mode** for Pareto, bump, marimekko, trellis, sankey, radial. Set **Compute Using / Specific Dimensions** explicitly — the default direction is usually wrong. Verify by opening.
+
+### Table-calc chart recipes (no reshaping)
+
+- **Combo chart:** two measures on Rows → Dual Axis → set each Marks card's type independently (e.g. Profit→Bar, Sales→Line) → Synchronize. The building block for bullet/Pareto/bump/dumbbell/control.
+- **Pareto:** Sub-Category on Columns sorted descending by SUM(Sales); Sales on Rows (bars); second Sales to far right → Dual Axis → Line; on the line, Add Table Calc = **Running Total**, then Secondary = **Percent of Total**, Compute Using = Table (Across). Add 80%/20% reference lines.
+- **Bullet graph:** bar of actual by category; drag a **Reference Line** from Analytics → **Cell**, value = target; drag a **Distribution** band → Cell at 60%/80% of target. Scope **Per Cell** so each row's target is independent.
+- **Bump chart (rank over time):** continuous date on Columns, SUM(Sales) on Rows, dimension on Color; Quick Table Calc → **Rank**, Compute Using = the dimension, restart each date period, Descending; duplicate pill → 2nd to **Shape** → Dual Axis → Synchronize; **Edit Axis → Reversed** so rank 1 is on top.
+- **Slope chart:** filter date to exactly two periods (discrete on Columns); measure on Rows; category on Color + Path; hide inner axis; label only ends with `FIRST()=0`/`LAST()=0`.
+- **Dumbbell:** measure on Columns, category on Rows, comparison dim filtered to two members on Color (Circle); duplicate measure → Line, move comparison dim to **Path**; Dual Axis → Synchronize; line behind circles. (A lollipop connects one dot to the baseline; a dumbbell connects two dots.)
+- **Waterfall:** steps dimension on Columns, measure on Rows → Quick Table Calc **Running Total** → mark type **Gantt Bar** → create `-[Measure]` and put it on **Size** (without the negative-size field the bars won't connect into the staircase); signed measure on Color for up/down. Bridge/P&L datasources often carry subtotal/total rows (usually tagged by a category/row-type column); before the Running Total, filter to incremental rows only — or render subtotal/total rows as anchors where the mark shows the full running value, not a signed increment. Running-totaling all rows double-counts every summarized increment and the final bar lands near 2× the true net. **The running total is order-dependent, so the step order is load-bearing:** when the intended order is a non-displayed field (e.g. a `display_order`/sequence column that isn't on a shelf), carry it in the ORIGINAL bind — `bind-template` proposal `sort:{by:"display_order",direction:"asc"}` injects that field's sort even though it isn't an encoding. Do NOT bind first and then reach for `refine-worksheet` to fix the order — refine can only sort by a field already in the view, so sorting by an off-view sequence field there fails ("unknown sort-by field") and the bridge stays in the template's default DESC-by-measure order.
+- **Funnel:** stage on Rows, measure on Columns → **Area**; create `-[Measure]` and drop it on Columns *in front* → symmetric centered funnel; color by stage, label with % of first stage.
+- **Control chart:** line per category (date on Columns, measure as Average); Dual Axis a Circle layer; Analytics **Average line** Per Pane + **Standard Deviation** distribution (factor 1–3, parameter-driven); color marks by an outlier calc (`AVG > WINDOW_AVG + nσ·WINDOW_STDEV`). (For how to read the σ band / what the stats mean, see [Analytics Pane Reference](data/knowledge/tactics/viz/analytics-pane-reference.md) — it owns the statistical read; this owns the build.)
+- **Small multiples / trellis:** parameter `Total Columns`; `Column = (INDEX()-1) % [Total Columns]`, `Row = ((INDEX()-1) - [Column]) / [Total Columns]`; Column (discrete) on Columns, Row (discrete) on Rows, per-plot fields in front; **set all three layout calcs' Compute Using to only the per-plot dimension** or the grid scrambles.
+- **Marimekko:** percent-of-total SUM(Sales) (Compute Using Category) on Rows as Bar; `{FIXED [Region]: SUM([Sales])}` for width; a running-width calc on Columns (Compute Using Region); Regional Sales on **Size** → Fixed, align Right; Category on Color.
+- **KPI/BAN card:** Text mark, measure on Text/Label, huge font; a % -change calc below colored by direction; a ▲/▼ Shape; often paired with a bullet graph.
+
+### Native / Show Me (no recipe needed, just the gotcha)
+
+Histogram (bin on Columns, CNT on Rows), box plot (**disaggregate** via `Analysis ▸ Aggregate Measures` off or it flattens — the quartile/whisker stat read is in [Analytics Pane Reference](data/knowledge/tactics/viz/analytics-pane-reference.md)), highlight table/heat map (Square + measure on Color, add 2nd measure on Size for heat), density (Density mark, **no color legend**), treemap/packed bubbles (Show Me one-clicks), filled vs symbol map (filled distorts by area — prefer symbol for counts).
+
+### Reshape/densification charts (heavier — budget time)
+
+These need densification (a size-1 **bin** Tableau interpolates across) or reshaping (self-union/scaffold). Keep the scaffold workbook as the source of truth — changing bin size or filtering padding rows breaks the curves.
+- **Sankey:** Polygon curves + Gantt end nodes; scaffold each flow record, densify with a `t` bin (1..49), a **sigmoid** calc maps `t` to the S-curve, FIXED/rank calcs position each flow. Prefer the simpler Equal-Width Sankey for modern use.
+- **Radial bar:** self-union (start/end point per bar) + densification; `Angle = (INDEX()-1)·(1/WINDOW_COUNT(...))·2π`; `X = radius·COS(Angle)`, `Y = radius·SIN(Angle)`; Line mark, item dim on Path. INDEX/WINDOW_MAX/RANK_UNIQUE are table calcs — Compute Using along the densification bin or the geometry breaks. (Verified against real radial `.twb` files.)
+- **Donut/gauge:** dual-axis pies — a `MIN(1)` placeholder axis duplicated; the top pie loses its dimension, recolors to the background, and shrinks via Size to punch the hole; total on Label. No native gauge mark.
+- **Spatial O-D flow (modern, no reshaping):** `MAKELINE(MAKEPOINT([OLat],[OLon]), MAKEPOINT([DLat],[DLon]))` — one line mark per route (latitude **first** in MAKEPOINT). The native alternative to densified-path sankey hacks; needs a spatial-capable source.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **Skipping Compute Using** — the #1 failure mode for every table-calc chart; the default addressing direction is usually wrong (Pareto/bump/marimekko/trellis).
+- **Waterfall without the negative-size field** → disconnected bars instead of a staircase.
+- **Waterfall over subtotal/total rows without filtering or anchoring** → the bridge double-counts (final bar ≈ 2× true net). Check for a category/row-type column before running-totaling.
+- **Ordering a waterfall by a non-displayed sequence field via refine instead of the bind** → refine-worksheet only sorts by fields already on the view, so `sort by "display_order"` fails there and the bridge silently stays in default DESC-by-measure order. Put the order in the bind proposal's `sort:{by,direction}` up front.
+- **Box plot left aggregated** → a single flat mark; disaggregate.
+- **Dual axis not synchronized** (or can't be, mismatched types) → silently misrepresents the comparison.
+- **Forgetting Edit Axis → Reversed** on bump/slope → the "winner" sits at the bottom.
+- **Clicking Show Me after hand-building** → resets manual mark/shelf work.
+- **Filled (choropleth) map for raw counts** → area dominates over value; use symbol/size or normalize per-capita.
+
+## Implementation
+
+Build the chart with the recipe above, then set the table-calc **Compute Using** explicitly (this is where most advanced charts fail), apply via `apply-worksheet` / `apply-workbook(mode=file)`, and open in Tableau to confirm the geometry/addressing rendered as intended. For reshape/densification charts (sankey, radial, network), keep the scaffold as the source of truth and verify the curve interpolation didn't break. Defer chart *choice* to chart-selection and the perceptual *why* (bars over pies, shared over dual axis, color for secondary encoding) to the design-principles guidance.
+
+## Related Knowledge
+
+- Builds on [Chart Type Selection](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/chart-selection.md): that decides *which* chart and flags poor choices; this is *how to build* the advanced ones.
+- Uses the calc recipes in [LOD & Table-Calc Pattern Cookbook](data/knowledge/tactics/data/lod-and-table-calc-patterns.md) (running total, rank, LOD for marimekko/sankey positioning) — the addressing rules there are the same ones that make or break these charts.
+- The control-chart / density mechanics relate to [Analytics Pane Reference](data/knowledge/tactics/viz/analytics-pane-reference.md) (Standard Deviation distribution, density marks).
+- The bullet-graph target and control-chart σ band are authored with the nodes in [Parameters & What-If Scenario Bands](data/knowledge/tactics/data/parameters-and-scenario-bands.md) — the `<reference-line>` XML, `paired-id` bands, and parameter-driven line values.
+- Pairs with [Chart Best Practices](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/chart-best-practices.md) for the simpler-chart conventions.

+- Source/evidence type: external reference (adapted with permission)
+- Source: adapted from `plugin-tableau-master` (`references/advanced-visualizations.md`) by Jon Plax, used with the author's permission; build recipes trace to help.tableau.com plus community sources (Flerlage Twins, The Data School, Playfair Data) and dissection of real `.twb` files (radial-bar recipe verified against real workbooks). Condensed from the 500-line source to the load-bearing mechanic + failure mode per chart. For the densification-heavy charts (sankey, network, radial), this entry deliberately points to the *simpler native alternatives* (Equal-Width Sankey, `MAKELINE` O-D maps) rather than reproducing the full scaffold — when a user needs the full step-by-step for a complex hacked chart, build from a known-good reference workbook (`get-workbook-xml` on a real example) plus the community recipes cited above, not from this condensed entry alone.

+# Chart Best Practices, Common Mistakes & Examples
+
+Implementation reference for chart design decisions in Tableau — covering mark class selection rules, shelf placement, common errors, and worked examples. For chart type selection and shelf configuration by data question, see `chart-selection.md`.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude apply chart design best practices and avoid common mistakes when authoring visualizations.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: charts, best-practices, mark-class, shelf-placement, examples
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "which chart type should I use", "bar chart vs line chart", "how to sort a bar chart in Tableau", "dual axis chart example", "why does my chart look wrong", "scatter plot setup", "stacked bar chart configuration", "common chart mistakes", "when to remove gridlines", "mark class selection rules"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+- **Choosing between two valid chart types** and need a tiebreaker or priority rule
+- **Diagnosing a chart that looks wrong** — lines on categorical data, overlapping areas, misleading dual axes
+- **Building a specific chart** and need a concrete worked example with shelf placement
+- **Coaching a customer** on why their current chart choice is hurting their analysis
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### General Rules
+
+1. **Start with bars**: When uncertain, a sorted horizontal bar chart is the safest default. It works for comparison, ranking, composition, and distribution.
+2. **One chart, one message**: Each visualization should answer one clear question. If you need to show multiple things, use multiple charts.
+3. **Sort deliberately**: Always sort categorical axes by the measure of interest, not alphabetically, unless alphabetical order is the point (e.g., a lookup table).
+4. **Limit color categories to 5-7**: Beyond this, colors become indistinguishable. Use "Other" grouping or highlight a subset.
+5. **Include zero baseline for bar charts**: Truncated bar chart axes distort magnitude comparisons. Lines are more flexible — zero baseline is not always required.
+6. **Prefer small multiples over spaghetti**: Instead of 10 lines on one chart, use a grid of individual charts (one per category).
+7. **Label directly**: Place labels on or near marks instead of relying solely on legends, especially for 2-3 series.
+
+### Mark Class Selection Priority
+
+When the question could be answered by multiple chart types, prefer in this order:
+
+1. **Bar** — highest precision for categorical comparison
+2. **Line** — best for temporal trends
+3. **Circle** (scatter) — best for bivariate relationships
+4. **Text** — best for exact value lookup (small data)
+5. **Square** (heatmap) — best for dense matrix patterns
+6. **Area** — use only when volume emphasis adds meaning
+7. **Pie** — rarely the best choice; use Bar instead
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+### 1. Lines for Categorical Data
+- **Problem**: Using Line mark for a categorical (unordered) dimension on the X axis.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Lines imply continuity and order. Connecting "Furniture" to "Technology" with a line suggests interpolation that does not exist.
+- **Fix**: Use Bar mark for categorical comparisons.
+
+### 2. Too Many Pie Slices
+- **Problem**: Pie chart with 8+ categories, many of similar size.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Humans cannot accurately compare angles, especially when slices are similar. Small slices become invisible.
+- **Fix**: Replace with horizontal bar chart sorted by value.
+
+### 3. Unsorted Bar Charts
+- **Problem**: Bar chart with categories in alphabetical or arbitrary order.
+- **Why it is wrong**: The audience must visually scan all bars to find the largest/smallest. Sorting does this work for them.
+- **Fix**: Right-click the dimension on the shelf → Sort → Field → descending by the measure.
+
+### 4. Dual-Axis Scale Manipulation
+- **Problem**: Two axes with different ranges that visually align unrelated patterns.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Creates false visual correlation. A line crossing a bar at a certain point is meaningless if the scales differ.
+- **Fix**: Synchronize axes when units are compatible. Use separate stacked charts when they are not.
+
+### 5. Overloaded Single Chart
+- **Problem**: One chart with 10+ series, 3 encodings, dual axes, and reference lines.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Cognitive overload — the audience cannot extract any single insight.
+- **Fix**: Split into multiple focused charts. Use a dashboard layout.
+
+### 6. Filled Maps for Non-Geographic Insights
+- **Problem**: Using a filled map when a bar chart would answer the question more precisely.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Geographic area dominates visual perception. Alaska looks 100x more important than Connecticut regardless of data values.
+- **Fix**: Use a sorted bar chart. Reserve maps for when spatial pattern is the actual insight.
+
+### 7. 3D Charts
+- **Problem**: Any 3D visualization (3D bars, 3D pie, etc.).
+- **Why it is wrong**: Perspective distortion makes accurate comparison impossible. Front elements occlude back elements.
+- **Fix**: Never use 3D. Tableau Desktop does not natively support 3D charts, which is by design.
+
+### 8. Area Charts with Multiple Overlapping Series
+- **Problem**: Non-stacked area chart with 3+ series.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Later series occlude earlier ones. Impossible to read values for hidden series.
+- **Fix**: Use Line chart for comparison, or Stacked Area if part-to-whole is the goal.
+

+
+## Implementation
+
+### Shelf placement quick reference
+
+| Shelf | Purpose | Examples |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Columns** | Horizontal axis | Date for time series; category for vertical bar |
+| **Rows** | Vertical axis | Measure for most charts; category for horizontal bar |
+| **Color** | Categorical breakdown or sequential measure | Segment, Region, Profit Ratio |
+| **Size** | Bubble size, Gantt duration, treemap area | Sales, Duration days |
+| **Detail** | Adds granularity without a visual channel | Order ID to disaggregate scatter points |
+| **Label/Text** | Displays values on marks | SUM(Sales), % of Total |
+
+### Mark class reference
+
+| Mark Class | Primary Use |
+|---|---|
+| `Bar` | Comparison, ranking, distribution |
+| `Line` | Trends over time |
+| `Area` | Volume over time, stacked composition |
+| `Circle` | Scatter plots, symbol maps, dot plots |
+| `Square` | Heatmaps, treemaps, highlight tables |
+| `Text` | Crosstabs, KPI displays |
+| `Pie` | Part-to-whole (use sparingly) |
+| `GanttBar` | Duration, waterfall charts |
+| `Multipolygon` | Filled maps (choropleth) |
+
+---
+
+## Examples
+
+### Example 1: Sales by Category (Horizontal Bar, Sorted)
+
+- **Question**: Which product category has the highest sales?
+- **Mark class**: `Bar`
+- **Rows**: `[Product Category]` (dimension)
+- **Columns**: `SUM([Sales])` (measure)
+- **Sort**: Right-click `[Product Category]` → Sort → Field → SUM(Sales), descending
+- **Why this works**: Horizontal bars accommodate category labels, sorting makes ranking instant.
+
+### Example 2: Monthly Revenue Trend (Line)
+
+- **Question**: How has revenue changed over the past 12 months?
+- **Mark class**: `Line`
+- **Columns**: `MONTH([Order Date])` (continuous)
+- **Rows**: `SUM([Revenue])`
+- **Why this works**: Continuous time on X, line implies trend and continuity.
+
+### Example 3: Profit vs. Sales (Scatter)
+
+- **Question**: Is there a relationship between sales volume and profit?
+- **Mark class**: `Circle`
+- **Columns**: `SUM([Sales])`
+- **Rows**: `SUM([Profit])`
+- **Detail**: `[Product Name]` (to disaggregate)
+- **Color**: `[Category]` (to group)
+- **Why this works**: Two continuous measures, one on each axis. Detail provides granularity.
+
+### Example 4: Market Share by Region (Stacked Bar)
+
+- **Question**: What share of total sales does each region contribute, by year?
+- **Mark class**: `Bar`
+- **Columns**: `YEAR([Order Date])`
+- **Rows**: `SUM([Sales])`
+- **Color**: `[Region]`
+- **Why this works**: Stacked bars show both the total (bar height) and composition (color segments).
+
+### Example 5: Sales Density by State (Filled Map)
+
+- **Question**: Where are sales concentrated geographically?
+- **Mark class**: `Multipolygon`
+- **Detail**: `[State]` (geographic role: State/Province)
+- **Color**: `SUM([Sales])` (sequential palette)
+- **Why this works**: Geographic pattern is the primary insight. Filled regions show concentration at a glance.
+
+### Example 6: Day-of-Week / Hour Heatmap
+
+- **Question**: When are orders most frequent?
+- **Mark class**: `Square`
+- **Columns**: `HOUR([Order DateTime])`
+- **Rows**: `WEEKDAY([Order DateTime])`
+- **Color**: `CNT([Orders])`
+- **Why this works**: Two temporal dimensions form a grid. Color intensity reveals peak periods instantly.
+
+### Example 7: Revenue and Margin % Over Time (Dual Axis)
+
+- **Question**: How do revenue and margin % trend together?
+- **Mark class**: `Bar` (revenue, left axis) + `Line` (margin %, right axis)
+- **Columns**: `MONTH([Date])` (continuous)
+- **Rows**: `SUM([Revenue])` (left), `AVG([Margin %])` (right, dual axis)
+- **Why this works**: Revenue (volume) and margin (rate) have different scales. Dual axis is justified because both share the time dimension and the relationship is meaningful. Bar vs. line differentiation prevents visual confusion.

+# Visualization: Chart Type Selection
+
+Enforcement: judgment-only
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine, validate, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: This guides Claude's chart type selection by mapping analytical questions to Tableau mark classes and shelf configurations, ensuring the correct visualization is programmatically authored without trial and error.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: chart-selection, chart-types, shelves, data-questions, viz-design, analytical-traps, statistical-literacy, eda, simpsons-paradox, correlation-causation
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "what chart should I use", "best chart for this data", "bar vs pie", "is this chart misleading", "correlation vs causation", "Simpson's paradox", "why does the overall number disagree", "how do I explore this dataset", "which visualization for comparison/trend/distribution"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when deciding which chart type to build for a given analytical question. This module maps data questions to Tableau mark classes and shelf configurations so an AI agent can programmatically author the correct visualization without trial and error.
+
+---
+
+## Decision Framework: Data Question → Chart Type
+
+### Step 0: Look for Tableau precedents
+
+For a substantive new analysis, do a lightweight precedent scan first (when sources/tools allow): internal Tableau Cloud/Server content (encodes the org's vocabulary, metric definitions, and conventions), then Tableau Exchange accelerators, then Tableau Public. Treat precedents as starting points, not authority; preserve attribution and never upload private data to public services. Full workflow: `expertise://tableau/personalization/workbook-viz-templates`.
+
+### Step 1: Classify the Data Question
+
+Every visualization answers one of these question types:
+
+| Question Category | Core Question | Primary Mark Classes |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Comparison** | How do values differ across categories? | Bar |
+| **Change over Time** | How does a measure evolve over time? | Line, Area |
+| **Part-to-Whole** | What share does each part contribute? | Bar (stacked), Pie, Area (stacked) |
+| **Distribution** | How are values spread? | Circle, Bar (histogram), Bar (box plot) |
+| **Relationship** | How do two measures correlate? | Circle (scatter) |
+| **Ranking** | What is the order from best to worst? | Bar (sorted) |
+| **Geographic** | Where do values concentrate spatially? | Multipolygon, Circle (on map) |
+| **Composition** | What are the components at a point in time? | Bar (stacked), Area (stacked) |
+| **Flow / Allocation** | How does a quantity move between nodes? | Route to propose-path (needs a scaffold, not a mark) — see #17 |
+
+### Step 2: Match to Chart Type and Configuration
+
+Use the detailed entries below. Each entry specifies the Tableau mark class, shelf layout, and decision criteria.
+
+---
+
+## Chart Types Reference
+
+### 1. Bar Chart (Vertical)
+
+- **Mark class**: `Bar`
+- **Shelf config**: Dimension on Columns, Measure on Rows
+- **Data question**: Comparison across categories (fewer than ~20 categories)
+- **When to use**: Comparing discrete categories where label length is short. Default choice for categorical comparison.
+- **When NOT to use**: More than 20 categories (switch to horizontal bar). Continuous time axis (use Line). Showing trends (use Line).
+- **Encoding notes**: Color on a second dimension for grouped/stacked bars. Use `SortOrder: "Descending"` on the dimension to create a ranked bar chart.
+
+### 2. Bar Chart (Horizontal)
+
+- **Mark class**: `Bar`
+- **Shelf config**: Measure on Columns, Dimension on Rows
+- **Data question**: Comparison or ranking across categories, especially with long labels
+- **When to use**: Category labels are long strings (product names, region descriptions). Ranking questions (sort descending). More than 10 categories.
+- **When NOT to use**: Time-based axis (time should always be horizontal). Fewer than 4 very short labels (vertical bar is fine).
+- **Opinionated guidance**: Horizontal bars are almost always better than vertical for ranking. Always sort by the measure — unsorted bars are nearly useless for comparison. This is the single most versatile chart type.
+
+### 3. Stacked Bar Chart
+
+- **Mark class**: `Bar`
+- **Shelf config**: Dimension on Columns, Measure on Rows, second Dimension on Color
+- **Data question**: Part-to-whole composition across categories
+- **When to use**: Showing how a total breaks down into 2-4 sub-categories. Comparing totals AND composition simultaneously.
+- **When NOT to use**: More than 5 color segments — becomes unreadable. When the audience needs to compare individual segments precisely (use grouped bars instead). When segments have no meaningful total.
+- **Opinionated guidance**: Limit to 4-5 color segments maximum. Consider 100% stacked bars if only the proportions matter, not the absolute values.
+
+### 4. Line Chart
+
+- **Mark class**: `Line`
+- **Shelf config**: Date/time dimension on Columns, Measure on Rows
+- **Data question**: Change over time, trend identification
+- **When to use**: Continuous time axis. Showing trends, patterns, seasonality. Comparing trends across 2-5 series.
+- **When NOT to use**: Categorical (non-ordered) X axis — lines imply continuity between points. More than 7 series (becomes spaghetti). Sparse data with large gaps (use Bar or Circle).
+- **Opinionated guidance**: Never use lines for categorical data — this is the single most common chart crime. Lines imply interpolation between points. Limit to 5-6 series; beyond that, use small multiples or highlight one series. Always include zero baseline for rate/amount data unless the variation is the point.
+- **Encoding notes**: Place the date field with continuous aggregation (YEAR, MONTH, etc.) on Columns. Multiple measures: use Measure Names on Color, Measure Values on Rows.
+
+### 5. Area Chart
+
+- **Mark class**: `Area`
+- **Shelf config**: Date/time dimension on Columns, Measure on Rows
+- **Data question**: Change over time with emphasis on volume/magnitude
+- **When to use**: Single series where you want to emphasize cumulative magnitude. Stacked area for showing composition changes over time.
+- **When NOT to use**: Multiple overlapping (non-stacked) series — areas occlude each other. When precise value reading matters (Line is better). Negative values.
+- **Opinionated guidance**: Stacked area is excellent for 2-4 series showing part-to-whole over time. Never use overlapping (non-stacked) area charts — they hide data. For a single series, area adds visual weight that can emphasize volume effectively.
+
+### 6. Scatter Plot
+
+- **Mark class**: `Circle`
+- **Shelf config**: Measure on Columns, Measure on Rows
+- **Data question**: Relationship/correlation between two measures
+- **When to use**: Exploring correlation between two continuous variables. Identifying outliers. Cluster analysis.
+- **When NOT to use**: One axis is categorical (use Bar). Fewer than ~15 data points (use a table). Audience unfamiliar with scatter interpretation.
+- **Encoding notes**: Size on a third measure for bubble chart. Color on a dimension for group identification. Detail on a dimension to disaggregate points. Add a trend line via analytics pane for correlation emphasis.
+- **Opinionated guidance**: Always put the independent/explanatory variable on Columns (X). Add a dimension to Detail to control granularity — without it, you get one aggregated dot. Size encoding (bubble chart) works for a third measure but keep the size range moderate.
+
+### 7. Histogram
+
+- **Mark class**: `Bar`
+- **Shelf config**: Binned measure on Columns, CNT or CNTD on Rows
+- **Data question**: Distribution of a single measure
+- **When to use**: Understanding how values are distributed (normal, skewed, bimodal). Identifying outliers and concentration.
+- **When NOT to use**: Categorical data (use a standard bar chart). When exact values matter more than distribution shape.
+- **Implementation note**: Create a bin calculation on the measure first (right-click field → Create Bins). Place the bin on Columns, COUNT on Rows. Set mark class to Bar.
+
+### 8. Text Table / Crosstab
+
+- **Mark class**: `Text`
+- **Shelf config**: Dimensions on Rows and Columns, Measure on Text
+- **Data question**: Exact value lookup across two dimensions
+- **When to use**: Audience needs precise numbers. Dashboard KPI displays. Small number of cells (under 50).
+- **When NOT to use**: More than ~50 cells (use a heatmap or chart instead). When patterns/trends are more important than exact values.
+- **Encoding notes**: Use Color on the measure to add a heatmap effect to the text table, making patterns visible while retaining exact values.
+
+### 9. Heatmap
+
+- **Mark class**: `Square` or `Heatmap`
+- **Shelf config**: Dimension on Columns, Dimension on Rows, Measure on Color
+- **Data question**: Pattern identification across two categorical dimensions
+- **When to use**: Large matrix of values where color patterns reveal insights. Time-of-day / day-of-week analysis. Correlation matrices.
+- **When NOT to use**: Fewer than 3 categories on each axis (use a bar chart). When exact values are critical (add Text label or use crosstab).
+- **Opinionated guidance**: Use a sequential color palette (light-to-dark) for a single measure. Use diverging palette (red-white-blue) when there is a meaningful midpoint. The `Square` mark class is preferred over `Heatmap` for most use cases as it gives cleaner cell boundaries.
+
+### 10. Pie Chart
+
+- **Mark class**: `Pie`
+- **Shelf config**: Dimension on Color, Measure on Angle (Size)
+- **Data question**: Part-to-whole for a small number of categories
+- **When to use**: 2-3 categories where the audience expects a pie (e.g., market share). When the primary insight is "one segment dominates."
+- **When NOT to use**: More than 5 categories — switch to a horizontal bar sorted by value. When comparing slice sizes that are close in value (humans are bad at comparing angles). When showing change over time.
+- **Opinionated guidance**: Avoid pie charts in almost all analytical contexts. A sorted horizontal bar chart communicates the same information more precisely and scales to any number of categories. If you must use a pie, limit to 5 slices and include value labels. Never use 3D pie charts — they distort proportions.
+
+### 11. Treemap
+
+- **Mark class**: `Square`
+- **Shelf config**: Dimension on Detail, Measure on Size, optionally Dimension on Color
+- **Data question**: Hierarchical part-to-whole with many categories
+- **When to use**: Showing relative sizes across many categories (20+). Hierarchical data with multiple levels.
+- **When NOT to use**: Fewer than 5 categories (use bar chart). When precise comparison matters (rectangles are hard to compare). When there is no meaningful size measure.
+- **Encoding notes**: No row/column placement. The dimension goes on Detail (or Label), the measure on Size. A second dimension on Color can show a categorical grouping.
+
+### 12. Packed Bubble Chart
+
+- **Mark class**: `Circle`
+- **Shelf config**: Dimension on Detail, Measure on Size
+- **Data question**: Relative magnitude comparison with visual appeal
+- **When to use**: High-level overview of relative sizes. Engagement-oriented dashboards.
+- **When NOT to use**: When precise comparison is needed (bubbles are hard to compare accurately). Analytical dashboards where accuracy matters. Any situation where a bar chart would work.
+- **Opinionated guidance**: Packed bubbles are visually appealing but analytically weak. Use them sparingly and only for general impressions of magnitude, never for precise analysis.
+
+### 13. Gantt Bar
+
+- **Mark class**: `GanttBar`
+- **Shelf config**: Dimension on Rows, Date on Columns, Duration measure on Size
+- **Data question**: Duration, scheduling, spans across time
+- **When to use**: Project timelines. Event durations. Waterfall charts (via table calculations).
+- **When NOT to use**: When you only have a single point in time (use Circle or Bar). When there is no duration component.
+- **Implementation note**: Place the start date on Columns (continuous), a duration measure on Size. Each bar starts at the date value and extends by the Size value.
+
+### 14. Map (Filled / Symbol)
+
+- **Mark class**: `Multipolygon` (filled map) or `Circle` (symbol map)
+- **Shelf config**: Geographic dimension on Detail, Latitude on Rows, Longitude on Columns
+- **Data question**: Geographic distribution of values
+- **When to use**: Data has a geographic component (country, state, zip, lat/lon). Spatial patterns are the primary insight.
+- **When NOT to use**: Geography is incidental — a bar chart sorted by value is more precise. Only a few geographic regions (use a bar chart). The map would be mostly empty.
+- **Opinionated guidance**: Filled maps (choropleth) distort perception because large regions dominate visually regardless of data value. Symbol maps with sized circles are often more honest. Always consider whether a sorted bar chart would answer the question better — maps are overused.
+- **Encoding notes**: For filled maps, use `Multipolygon` mark with geographic role assigned to the dimension. For symbol maps, use `Circle` mark with Measure on Size and/or Color. Tableau auto-generates Latitude/Longitude when it recognizes geographic fields.
+
+### 15. Highlight Table
+
+- **Mark class**: `Square`
+- **Shelf config**: Dimension on Rows, Dimension on Columns, Measure on Color, Measure on Label
+- **Data question**: Pattern identification with exact values visible
+- **When to use**: Matrix view where both the pattern and exact values matter. KPI dashboards with color-coded status.
+- **When NOT to use**: Too many cells (>100) — becomes overwhelming. When the pattern alone is sufficient (use heatmap without labels).
+
+### 16. Dual-Axis Chart
+
+- **Mark class**: Varies (commonly `Bar` + `Line`)
+- **Shelf config**: Shared dimension on Columns, Measure 1 on Rows (left axis), Measure 2 on Rows (right axis, dual axis)
+- **Data question**: Comparing two measures with different scales on the same view
+- **When to use**: Volume vs. rate (e.g., sales amount + margin %). Two measures that share a dimension but have very different scales.
+- **When NOT to use**: When measures share the same scale (use a single axis). More than 2 measures (use separate charts). When the dual axes could mislead (different zero points, manipulated ranges).
+- **Opinionated guidance**: Dual axes are frequently misused. They can suggest false correlations. Always synchronize axes when possible. If the scales are wildly different, consider separate charts stacked vertically instead. Never use dual axis to overlay unrelated measures.
+- **Implementation note**: In workbook JSON, create two measure columns on Rows, then set the second axis as dual via the axis configuration.
+
+### 17. Sankey / Flow Diagram — route to the propose-path, do NOT hand-build
+
+- **Data question**: Proportional flow/allocation between nodes ("how the budget flows", "flow between stages", alluvial).
+- **Do not one-shot this.** A multi-step Sankey is a **reshaped/densified scaffold** (per-flow `t`-bin + sigmoid + FIXED/rank positioning), not a field swap, and **cycles render incorrectly**. Route to the propose-path in [Flow Diagrams & Sankey](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/flow-and-sankey.md): name the scaffold cost + cycles caveat, then offer the cheaper faithful option — geographic → `MAKELINE(MAKEPOINT(...))` O-D map; single-step → a **100%-stacked / part-to-whole bar** (#3); multi-step → hand over the scaffold recipe from `advanced-chart-builds`. Never synthesize a densified Sankey blindly (zero corpus exemplars to verify against).
+

+
+
+## Statistical Traps — When a "Correct" Chart Still Lies
+
+A chart can obey every visual-design rule and still mislead because the *reasoning* behind it is flawed. Before building what was asked, check whether the result would lie. Each trap: what it is, how it surfaces in Tableau, and the defense.
+
+- **Correlation ≠ causation** — two measures move together so we infer cause; it may be a confounder, reverse causation, or coincidence. *In Tableau:* a scatter with a steep trend line and low p-value looks like proof — it only fits association. *Defense:* bring the suspected confounder onto Color or a small-multiple facet, check whether the relationship survives within levels; annotate "association, not causation."
+- **Simpson's paradox** — a trend in the aggregate reverses inside every subgroup (UC Berkeley 1973 admissions; kidney-stone treatments). *In Tableau:* aggregation itself is the danger — an `AVG` bar or a pooled trend line can point opposite to the truth. *Defense:* disaggregate by the plausible confounder (drop it on Color or build small multiples); if panels disagree with the pooled view, the pooled view is the liar.
+- **Regression to the mean** — extreme measurements are followed by less-extreme ones purely from noise; intervene on the worst group and they "improve" even if the intervention is useless. *In Tableau:* a before/after slopegraph on a group selected for being extreme. *Defense:* require a control group; judge difference-in-differences, not the group's movement.
+- **Base-rate neglect** — ignoring prevalence: a "95% accurate" test on a 2%-prevalence condition makes a positive result real only ~29% of the time. *In Tableau:* a fraud/churn "flagged count" KPI invites treating flags as cases. *Defense:* build a 2×2 confusion matrix text table (predicted on Columns, actual on Rows, `COUNT()` on Text) so the false-positive cell sits beside the true-positive; show the base rate and prefer natural frequencies.
+- **Survivorship bias** — analyzing only what passed a filter (Wald's WWII bombers; funds that didn't close). *In Tableau:* a dashboard on *current* customers silently drops the churned. *Defense:* confirm the source includes the dead (watch for an inner join to an "active" table); add a cohort `FIXED` LOD on entry so attrition stays visible.
+- **Sampling uncertainty** — treating a sample gap as a finding; 3 points on n=40 may be noise. *Defense:* use a confidence-interval Reference Line; put sample size (`SIZE()`) in the tooltip; if CIs overlap heavily, say "no detectable difference," not "A beats B."
+- **Aggregation hides variance (Anscombe)** — four datasets with identical mean/variance/correlation/regression line look completely different when plotted. *In Tableau:* an `AVG` bar or a lone correlation number. *Defense:* plot the marks — disaggregate (`Analysis ▸ Aggregate Measures` off) to a scatter/box before trusting any mean or r.
+- **p-hacking / multiplicity** — test enough slices and one hits pless than 0.05 by chance; filter-driven exploration *is* multiple comparison. *Defense:* treat exploratory findings as hypotheses to confirm on fresh data; report how many segments you checked.
+- **Cherry-picked baseline / axis truncation** — the chart is honest about what it shows but the *selection* lies (flattering start date, non-zero bar axis). *Defense:* keep zero on bars (don't override Edit Axis "Include zero"); show the full range; label any truncation and the as-of date.
+- **p / R² over-claim** — reading R² as importance or a small p as a big effect; on large n almost everything is "significant." *Defense:* report the slope/effect size in real units alongside R²/p; never narrate a trend line as a cause.
+
+## Explore Before You Model (EDA First)
+
+Tukey's rule: *look before you model.* Use the data to suggest hypotheses, then confirm them on fresh data — never mine and conclude on the same slice (the p-hacking trap above). Before trusting any aggregate, profile the dataset:
+
+- **Field roles & types** — right-click a field ▸ **Describe**; a numeric ID typed as a measure corrupts everything below.
+- **Distribution of each measure** — histogram or disaggregated box plot; reveals skew, multimodality, and outliers a mean hides.
+- **Null / missing scan** — nulls silently drop from aggregates, biasing every average.
+- **Cardinality / dupes** — `COUNTD([key])` vs `COUNT()`; a mismatch signals fan-out from a join that inflates sums.
+- **Range sanity** — min/max and sort to extremes; impossible values (negative age, future dates) flag data-quality issues.

+
+## From Question to Viz — Decision Rubric
+
+Read the *shape of the question*, then act. Verify decisively: show it to a representative viewer and watch whether they reach the *true* conclusion.
+
+| The question sounds like… | Do this in Tableau | Watch for |
+|---|---|---|
+| "Which is biggest / who's on top?" | sorted horizontal bar; Set or `RANK()` for Top-N | hidden tail; noisy small-n ranking → regression to mean |

+
+The standing order: name the task → pick the chart → build it honestly → **stress-test the reasoning against the traps above before you ship** → in exploration, look first, confirm hypotheses on fresh data.

+
+## Best Practices
+
+### General Rules
+
+1. **Start with bars**: When uncertain, a sorted horizontal bar chart is the safest default. It works for comparison, ranking, composition, and distribution.
+2. **One chart, one message**: Each visualization should answer one clear question. If you need to show multiple things, use multiple charts.
+3. **Sort deliberately**: Always sort categorical axes by the measure of interest, not alphabetically, unless alphabetical order is the point (e.g., a lookup table).
+4. **Limit color categories to 5-7**: Beyond this, colors become indistinguishable. Use "Other" grouping or highlight a subset.
+5. **Include zero baseline for bar charts**: Truncated bar chart axes distort magnitude comparisons. Lines are more flexible — zero baseline is not always required.
+6. **Prefer small multiples over spaghetti**: Instead of 10 lines on one chart, use a grid of individual charts (one per category).
+7. **Label directly**: Place labels on or near marks instead of relying solely on legends, especially for 2-3 series.
+
+### Mark Class Selection Priority
+
+When the question could be answered by multiple chart types, prefer in this order:
+
+1. **Bar** — highest precision for categorical comparison
+2. **Line** — best for temporal trends
+3. **Circle** (scatter) — best for bivariate relationships
+4. **Text** — best for exact value lookup (small data)
+5. **Square** (heatmap) — best for dense matrix patterns
+6. **Area** — use only when volume emphasis adds meaning
+7. **Pie** — rarely the best choice; use Bar instead
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+### 1. Lines for Categorical Data
+- **Problem**: Using Line mark for a categorical (unordered) dimension on the X axis.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Lines imply continuity and order. Connecting "Furniture" to "Technology" with a line suggests interpolation that does not exist.
+- **Fix**: Use Bar mark for categorical comparisons.
+
+### 2. Too Many Pie Slices
+- **Problem**: Pie chart with 8+ categories, many of similar size.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Humans cannot accurately compare angles, especially when slices are similar. Small slices become invisible.
+- **Fix**: Replace with horizontal bar chart sorted by value.
+
+### 3. Unsorted Bar Charts
+- **Problem**: Bar chart with categories in alphabetical or arbitrary order.
+- **Why it is wrong**: The audience must visually scan all bars to find the largest/smallest. Sorting does this work for them.
+- **Fix**: Apply a computed sort on the dimension by the measure, descending.
+
+### 4. Dual-Axis Scale Manipulation
+- **Problem**: Two axes with different ranges that visually align unrelated patterns.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Creates false visual correlation. A line crossing a bar at a certain point is meaningless if the scales differ.
+- **Fix**: Synchronize axes when units are compatible. Use separate stacked charts when they are not.
+
+### 5. Overloaded Single Chart
+- **Problem**: One chart with 10+ series, 3 encodings, dual axes, and reference lines.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Cognitive overload — the audience cannot extract any single insight.
+- **Fix**: Split into multiple focused charts. Use a dashboard layout.
+
+### 6. Filled Maps for Non-Geographic Insights
+- **Problem**: Using a filled map when a bar chart would answer the question more precisely.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Geographic area dominates visual perception. Alaska looks 100x more important than Connecticut regardless of data values.
+- **Fix**: Use a sorted bar chart. Reserve maps for when spatial pattern is the actual insight.
+
+### 7. 3D Charts
+- **Problem**: Any 3D visualization (3D bars, 3D pie, etc.).
+- **Why it is wrong**: Perspective distortion makes accurate comparison impossible. Front elements occlude back elements.
+- **Fix**: Never use 3D. Tableau Desktop does not natively support 3D, which is a feature, not a limitation.
+
+### 8. Area Charts with Multiple Overlapping Series
+- **Problem**: Non-stacked area chart with 3+ series.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Later series occlude earlier ones. Impossible to read values for hidden series.
+- **Fix**: Use Line chart for comparison, or Stacked Area if part-to-whole is the goal.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation in Tableau Desktop
+
+### Mark Class Reference (Workbook XML)
+
+The `mark` node's `class` attribute controls chart type (`Bar`, `Line`, `Area`, `Circle`, `Square`, `Text`, `Pie`, `Shape`, `GanttBar`, `Polygon`, `Heatmap`, `Multipolygon`; avoid `Automatic` for programmatic authoring). For the full enum and the encoding XML, see the tactics modules: `expertise://tableau/tactics/tree/enums` and `expertise://tableau/tactics/viz/marks-and-encodings`.
+
+### Shelf Configuration in Workbook JSON
+
+Shelves are encoded as `column` and `row` entries in the worksheet's `datasource-dependencies` and `rows`/`cols` elements:
+
+- **Columns shelf**: Controls the horizontal axis. Place date fields here for time series. Place categories here for vertical bar charts.
+- **Rows shelf**: Controls the vertical axis. Place measures here for most charts. Place categories here for horizontal bar charts.
+- **Color**: Encoded in `pane > encodings > color`. Used for categorical breakdown or sequential measure encoding.
+- **Size**: Encoded in `pane > encodings > size`. Used for bubble charts, Gantt bar duration, treemap area.
+- **Detail**: Encoded in `pane > encodings > lod > column-instance`. Adds granularity without a visual encoding.
+- **Label/Text**: Encoded in `pane > encodings > text`. Displays values on marks.
+
+### Programmatic Authoring Guidelines
+
+1. **Always set mark class explicitly**: Never use `Automatic`. Specify the exact mark class to ensure deterministic output.
+2. **Match shelf placement to chart type**: The same data on different shelves produces different charts. A dimension on Rows + measure on Columns = horizontal bar. Swap them = vertical bar.
+3. **Sort via view-level sort node**: Do not rely on CDP sort commands. Use a `sort` node with `class="computed"`, `direction="DESC"`, and `using="[Datasource].[Measure]"` for reliable sorted bar charts.
+4. **Color encoding goes in pane**: Place color configuration in `pane > encodings > color`, not inside the mark node. This is a common gotcha — mark-level color encoding gets stripped by `loadMetadataFromXml`.
+5. **Table calculations in ds-deps**: Table calc configuration belongs in `column-instance` children within `datasource-dependencies`, with `:2` suffix on the name and `ordering-type="Field"`.
+
+---
+
+## Examples
+
+### Example 1: Sales by Category (Horizontal Bar, Sorted)
+
+- **Question**: Which product category has the highest sales?
+- **Mark class**: `Bar`
+- **Rows**: `[Product Category]` (dimension)
+- **Columns**: `SUM([Sales])` (measure)
+- **Sort**: Computed, descending by `SUM([Sales])`
+- **Why this works**: Horizontal bars accommodate category labels, sorting makes ranking instant.
+
+### Example 2: Monthly Revenue Trend (Line)
+
+- **Question**: How has revenue changed over the past 12 months?
+- **Mark class**: `Line`
+- **Columns**: `MONTH([Order Date])` (continuous)
+- **Rows**: `SUM([Revenue])`
+- **Why this works**: Continuous time on X, line implies trend and continuity.
+
+### Example 3: Profit vs. Sales (Scatter)
+
+- **Question**: Is there a relationship between sales volume and profit?
+- **Mark class**: `Circle`
+- **Columns**: `SUM([Sales])`
+- **Rows**: `SUM([Profit])`
+- **Detail**: `[Product Name]` (to disaggregate)
+- **Color**: `[Category]` (to group)
+- **Why this works**: Two continuous measures, one on each axis. Detail provides granularity.
+
+### Example 4: Market Share by Region (Stacked Bar)
+
+- **Question**: What share of total sales does each region contribute, by year?
+- **Mark class**: `Bar`
+- **Columns**: `YEAR([Order Date])`
+- **Rows**: `SUM([Sales])`
+- **Color**: `[Region]`
+- **Why this works**: Stacked bars show both the total (bar height) and composition (color segments).
+
+### Example 5: Sales Density by State (Filled Map)
+
+- **Question**: Where are sales concentrated geographically?
+- **Mark class**: `Multipolygon`
+- **Detail**: `[State]` (geographic role: State/Province)
+- **Color**: `SUM([Sales])` (sequential palette)
+- **Why this works**: Geographic pattern is the primary insight. Filled regions show concentration at a glance.
+
+### Example 6: Day-of-Week / Hour Heatmap
+
+- **Question**: When are orders most frequent?
+- **Mark class**: `Square`
+- **Columns**: `HOUR([Order DateTime])`
+- **Rows**: `WEEKDAY([Order DateTime])`
+- **Color**: `CNT([Orders])`
+- **Why this works**: Two temporal dimensions form a grid. Color intensity reveals peak periods instantly.
+
+### Example 7: Revenue and Margin % Over Time (Dual Axis)
+
+- **Question**: How do revenue and margin % trend together?
+- **Mark class**: `Bar` (revenue, left axis) + `Line` (margin %, right axis)
+- **Columns**: `MONTH([Date])` (continuous)
+- **Rows**: `SUM([Revenue])` (left), `AVG([Margin %])` (right, dual axis)
+- **Why this works**: Revenue (volume) and margin (rate) have different scales. Dual axis is justified because both share the time dimension and the relationship is meaningful. Bar vs. line differentiation prevents visual confusion.

+# Color Strategy for Data Visualizations
+
+A guide for choosing and applying color in Tableau dashboards — covering palette types, accessibility, and Tableau-specific implementation. Grounded in Lisa Charlotte Muth's "Your Friendly Guide to Colors in Data Visualisation" (Datawrapper Blog).
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: format, refine
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude choose and apply accessible, meaningful color in Tableau dashboards when authoring.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: color, palettes, accessibility, formatting, design
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how to choose colors for my dashboard", "colorblind safe palette Tableau", "too many colors on my chart", "sequential vs diverging palette", "why is my dashboard so busy", "red green colorblind problem", "text contrast on colored background", "grey for non-highlighted marks", "legend too far from chart", "brand colors in Tableau"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+- **A customer asks why their dashboard looks busy or confusing** — often a color problem
+- **Choosing between palette types** for a specific chart or map
+- **A dashboard uses too many colors** and needs to be simplified
+- **Designing for accessibility** or a colorblind audience
+- **Coaching a customer on brand color integration** without sacrificing readability
+
+---
+
+## The Two Palette Types
+
+Every color decision in data vis falls into one of two cases. Getting this wrong is the most common color mistake.
+
+### Sequential / Diverging Palettes (for continuous data)
+
+Use when data progresses from low to high — unemployment rates, sales totals, temperature readings.
+
+Colors in a gradient communicate: *"I represent a value slightly higher or lower than the color next to me."*
+
+| Palette Type | When to Use | Example |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Sequential** | One direction: low → high | Light blue → dark blue for sales density |
+| **Diverging** | Two directions from a meaningful midpoint | Red → white → blue for profit (negative to positive) |
+
+**Key requirement**: Steps must be visually distinct enough that the viewer can actually tell them apart. Subtle gradients that look beautiful in UI design are not sufficient for data — the viewer needs to read the difference between a light green and a slightly lighter green.
+
+**In Tableau**: Drag a measure to Color on the marks card → Edit Colors → choose a sequential or diverging palette. Adjust the range to match your data's meaningful min/max, not the data's actual min/max.
+
+### Categorical / Distinctive Palettes (for discrete categories)
+
+Use when data has unordered categories — political parties, product lines, regions, customer segments.
+
+Distinctive colors communicate: *"I am completely separate from all the other colors here."*
+
+**Key requirement**: Colors must be visually distinguishable from each other and not imply any ordering or relationship between categories.
+
+**In Tableau**: Drag a dimension to Color → Edit Colors → choose a qualitative palette (e.g., Tableau 10, Tableau 20, or a custom palette).
+
+---
+
+## Grey Is the Most Important Color
+
+Grey makes everything else work. Used as the default color for non-highlighted marks, grey creates contrast that makes your one or two meaningful colors stand out.
+
+**The grey principle in practice:**
+- Make most marks grey by default
+- Color only the marks that carry the insight
+- The single colored element becomes the focal point automatically
+
+This is more powerful than coloring everything differently. A bar chart where one bar is blue and eleven are grey communicates the ranking instantly. A bar chart where all twelve bars are different colors communicates nothing.
+
+**In Tableau**: Set the default mark color to a medium grey (`#999999` or `#AAAAAA`). Use a calculated field to conditionally assign a highlight color to specific dimension members.
+
+---
+
+## Colorblindness Accessibility
+
+Roughly 8% of men and 0.5% of women have some form of color vision deficiency. The most common is red-green colorblindness (deuteranopia).
+
+**What breaks for colorblind viewers**:
+- Red/green combinations — the single most common mistake
+- Red/orange, green/yellow distinctions
+- Low-contrast sequential palettes
+
+**Tableau-safe defaults**:
+- Use ColorBrewer palettes — they are designed to be colorblind-safe
+- Avoid encoding meaning in red vs green alone — add a label, icon, or position cue
+- The Tableau 10 default palette has known colorblindness issues; ColorBrewer's qualitative palettes are safer
+
+**How to check**: Use a colorblindness simulator before sharing a dashboard. The Coblis simulator (online) or Sim Daltonism (Mac app) show your dashboard as colorblind viewers see it. Datawrapper's Viz Palette tool also tests palettes for colorblindness compatibility.
+
+---
+
+## Text on Color: Contrast
+
+If you label marks directly or place text annotations over colored backgrounds, contrast matters for readability.
+
+**WCAG AA minimum**: 4.5:1 contrast ratio for normal text, 3:1 for large text.
+
+Common failures:
+- White text on yellow or light green backgrounds
+- Red text on blue backgrounds (the colors don't contrast even though they feel different)
+- Dark text on dark map choropleth fills
+
+**Check with**: Color Review (color.review) — enter foreground and background hex values, get a pass/fail for each text size.
+
+---
+
+## Palette Recommendations for Tableau
+
+### Sequential (single hue)
+- **Blues** (ColorBrewer) — safe, neutral, works on projectors
+- **Greens** (ColorBrewer) — good for positive-direction data
+- **Oranges/Reds** — use for heat or urgency, avoid for neutral data
+
+### Sequential (multi-hue)
+- **YlOrRd** (ColorBrewer) — yellow → orange → red; works well for density maps
+- **BuGn** (ColorBrewer) — blue → green; good for environmental data
+
+### Diverging
+- **RdBu** (ColorBrewer) — red → white → blue; the standard for financial/political data
+- **RdYlGn** (ColorBrewer) — red → yellow → green; familiar for KPI status, but has colorblindness issues — test before using
+
+### Categorical
+- **Tableau 10** — fine for general use, not colorblind-safe
+- **ColorBrewer qualitative palettes** (Set1, Set2, Paired) — better colorblind safety
+- **Custom brand palette** — extract hex values from the customer's brand guide; use for customer-facing dashboards
+
+### Limit category colors to 5-7
+Beyond 7 distinct hues, colors become indistinguishable and the legend becomes the chart. If you have more than 7 categories:
+- Group low-volume categories into "Other" and color them grey
+- Use a different encoding (small multiples, position, shape) instead of color
+
+---
+
+## Applying Custom Colors in Tableau
+
+**Edit a color palette:**
+1. Drag a field to Color on the marks card
+2. Click Color → Edit Colors
+3. Click a color swatch to change an individual member's color
+4. Or select a built-in palette from the dropdown
+
+**Create a custom palette (persistent across workbooks):**
+1. Close Tableau Desktop
+2. Open `My Tableau Repository/Preferences.tps` in a text editor
+3. Add a `<color-palette>` block with named hex values
+4. Reopen Tableau — the palette appears in Edit Colors
+
+**Set a continuous color range:**
+- Edit Colors → set Start and End colors
+- Check "Use Full Color Range" only if you want the palette to span the actual data min/max (not recommended for maps where an outlier skews the palette)
+- Use "Set Start and End" to pin the midpoint for diverging palettes
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Choose the palette type based on data type, not aesthetics.** Continuous data gets a gradient. Categorical data gets distinct hues. Mixing these up is the most common color mistake.
+2. **Grey first, color second.** Default marks to grey and apply color selectively to what matters. One colored element in a sea of grey carries more weight than ten colored elements competing.
+3. **Limit categorical colors to 5-7.** Beyond that, use grouping, filtering, or small multiples.
+4. **Start with ColorBrewer.** It is accessible, colorblind-tested, and print-safe. Use it as the default and deviate with purpose.
+5. **Test every dashboard for colorblindness.** Run it through a simulator before delivery. Red-green combinations fail for ~8% of your male audience.
+6. **Check text contrast when labeling over color.** Dark fills need white labels; light fills need dark labels. Never assume.
+7. **Match the diverging midpoint to the data's meaningful center.** For profit/loss, the midpoint is zero — not the average of the data range.
+8. **Integrate brand colors deliberately.** Use brand colors for the primary highlight, neutral greys for supporting marks. Do not force all brand colors into every chart.
+9. **Place legends adjacent to their charts.** A legend at the top of a dashboard that serves a chart at the bottom forces constant eye-travel. Direct labels are better than distant legends.
+10. **Color the category noun in annotations, not the whole sentence.** Only the word that names the category gets the category color. Coloring the full sentence implies the color means the observation, not the category.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+### 1. Using a gradient for categorical data
+- **Problem**: Applying a sequential (light-to-dark) palette to product categories or regions.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Gradients imply order and magnitude. Viewers will assume the darker color means "more" or "higher ranked."
+- **Fix**: Use a qualitative palette with visually distinct hues.
+
+### 2. Using distinct hues for continuous data
+- **Problem**: Applying a rainbow or categorical palette to a measure like temperature or sales density.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Distinct hues don't naturally communicate value differences. Viewers can't tell which hue is "higher."
+- **Fix**: Use a sequential or diverging palette.
+
+### 3. Red/green for positive/negative
+- **Problem**: Green for profit, red for loss — the most common KPI color scheme.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Red-green colorblindness affects roughly 8% of men. The signal is invisible to them.
+- **Fix**: Use blue/orange, or add a secondary cue (up/down arrow, label, position) alongside the color.
+
+### 4. Too many colors
+- **Problem**: 10+ distinct colors in a bar chart legend.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Viewers cannot reliably match legend swatches to marks when there are more than ~7. The legend becomes the chart.
+- **Fix**: Group small categories into "Other." Highlight one or two categories in color, grey the rest.
+
+### 5. Subtle gradient steps
+- **Problem**: A beautiful 9-step sequential palette where steps 4 and 5 look identical at normal viewing distance.
+- **Why it is wrong**: If viewers cannot perceive the difference between color steps, the encoding fails.
+- **Fix**: Use 5-7 steps maximum for sequential palettes. Use the Chroma.js Color Palette Helper or ColorBrewer to verify perceptual spacing.
+
+### 6. Defaulting to Tableau's rainbow palette
+- **Problem**: Using the default rainbow diverging palette for all continuous data.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Rainbow palettes create false boundaries where color changes rapidly. They also fail colorblindness tests.
+- **Fix**: Use a single-hue sequential or two-hue diverging palette from ColorBrewer instead.
+
+### 8. Legend too far from the data
+- **Problem**: A shared color legend at the top of a multi-chart dashboard, with charts spread across the page.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Readers need to check the legend repeatedly while reading a new chart. Long eye-travel between legend and mark slows comprehension and causes readers to give up.
+- **Fix**: Use direct labels on marks where possible. When a legend is needed, position it immediately adjacent to the chart it serves.
+
+### 7. Forcing brand colors onto data
+- **Problem**: Applying a brand's three primary colors as the sequential palette for a choropleth map.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Brand colors are not designed for perceptual uniformity. The steps may not be visually equal.
+- **Fix**: Use brand colors for highlights and categorical labels where they work naturally. Use ColorBrewer for continuous data even in branded dashboards.
+
+---
+
+## Reinforcing Color Associations
+
+Choosing a good palette is only half the job. Readers forget color-to-category mappings quickly — especially on dashboards with multiple charts. These techniques help keep the associations alive throughout the reading experience.
+
+### Keep the Legend Close to the Data
+
+Readers need to check the legend repeatedly, not just once. If the legend is at the top and the chart is at the bottom of a tall dashboard, readers are constantly eye-traveling between mark and key.
+
+**Prefer direct labels over legends when possible.** Direct labels on marks (or at the end of lines) eliminate the round-trip entirely — the category name is right next to its color. In Tableau, add a dimension to Label on the marks card and set label placement to "End of line" for line charts, or enable "Allow labels to overlap" for dense views.
+
+**When a legend is necessary**, place it immediately adjacent to the chart it serves — not in a shared header at the top of the dashboard. On a multi-chart dashboard, each chart with color encoding should have its legend nearby, or use consistent colors so one legend covers multiple charts.
+
+### Use Colored Annotations
+
+Annotations already sit close to the data they describe, which makes them more powerful than a distant legend. When you add a text annotation to a chart, color the category noun in the annotation to match its mark color — not the entire sentence.
+
+**The rule**: color only the category name, not the observation about it.
+- Correct: "*Nuclear* energy decreased its share since 2018" (where "Nuclear" is orange)
+- Wrong: the entire sentence in orange — orange now means the decrease, not the category
+
+**Text color vs. mark color**: Bright colors that read well as large filled marks often become illegible as thin text. Make the annotation text color one shade darker than the corresponding mark color. A mark at `#4BACC6` might need `#2E7D8C` for readable annotated text.
+
+**In Tableau**: Double-click the canvas on a dashboard to add a floating text object, or use a text worksheet. Format text color per character using the rich text editor (select text → Format → Color).
+
+### Use the Chart Title as the Legend
+
+If a chart has 2-4 categories, the title can serve as the legend by naming each category in its color. This eliminates the separate legend entirely and makes the title do double duty.
+
+Example title: "**Revenue** continued to grow while **Profit** declined in Q3" — where "Revenue" is blue and "Profit" is orange, matching the line colors.
+
+**When it works**: 2-4 categories, short category names, a title that makes a statement rather than just labeling the chart.
+
+**When to keep the legend anyway**: If viewers might start reading mid-dashboard (jumping to a specific chart), a traditional legend is safer — they won't have seen the title.
+
+**In Tableau**: Double-click the chart title → use the rich text editor to select individual words and apply color formatting. Match the hex values to your mark colors exactly.
+
+### Reinforce Colors in Tooltips
+
+Tooltips appear right on the data point — the closest possible location to the mark. Including the category color in a tooltip reinforces the association at the moment of interaction, before the reader has traveled back to the legend.
+
+**In Tableau custom tooltips**: use `<b>` tags with inline color styling to match the category color, or simply include the category name field prominently so readers see "Region: West" rather than just a number. The category field itself is the reminder.
+
+For dashboards with highlight actions, Tableau's default tooltip already shows the highlighted category — lean into this rather than suppressing tooltips.
+
+---

+# Visual Design Principles: The Perceptual Why
+
+The perceptual research behind why one encoding is more truthful or readable than another — Cleveland & McGill, Bertin, Tufte, Few, Gestalt, color science.
+
+The judgment layer that the opinionated rules in chart-selection, color-strategy, and chart-best-practices *cite*: this explains the why; those apply the what. Don't restate them here.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine
+- In-scope reason: When the agent recommends "bars over pies" or "gray default + one accent" or "keep zero on bars," this is the perceptual evidence behind it — so guidance is grounded reasoning a user can be shown, not bare assertion, and the agent knows when a rule legitimately bends.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: visual-design, perception, cleveland-mcgill, bertin, tufte, few, gestalt, color-science, pre-attentive, lie-factor, design-rationale
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "why bars instead of pie", "why is this chart misleading", "why gray default one accent", "perception hierarchy", "is dual axis bad", "why keep zero on a bar axis", "what encoding should this be", "why not rainbow colors", "is this design good"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this to ground a design recommendation in *why* — when a user asks "why not a pie?", "is this dual axis a problem?", or you need to justify pushing back on a poor encoding. It is the rationale layer; the applied rules live elsewhere: chart choice in [Chart Type Selection](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/chart-selection.md), palette types/CVD/contrast in [Color Strategy](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/color-strategy.md), formatting/gridlines in [Formatting & Professional Polish](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/typography-and-polish.md), build recipes in [Advanced Chart Build Recipes](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/advanced-chart-builds.md). Don't restate those here — point to them.
+
+> **These are schools of thought, not commandments.** Tufte (data-ink minimalism), the memorability researchers ("useful junk"), and Few (pie absolutism) genuinely disagree at the edges. Each principle is one well-argued default, strongest in its context (analytical/monitoring) and weaker in others (persuasion/journalism). Where the field disagrees, this says so. The only decisive test: put the design in front of the audience and watch whether they read it right.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### The perception hierarchy (Cleveland & McGill, 1984)
+
+The empirical spine: elementary perceptual tasks ranked by how *accurately* people decode them (Heer & Bostock 2010 broadly replicated the ordering), most → least accurate:
+
+1. **Position along a common scale** (aligned bars, dot plots)
+2. **Position along non-aligned identical scales** (small multiples)
+3. **Length, direction, angle** (unaligned bars; pie slice angles)
+4. **Area** (bubbles, treemaps)
+5. **Volume, curvature** (3-D)
+6. **Color saturation / shading** — least accurate
+
+**Why the rules are the rules:** a bar (rank 1) beats a pie (rank 3) for any comparison the viewer must judge precisely → prefer position (a measure on Rows/Columns) before Size or Color. A shared axis (rank 1) beats a dual axis (rank 2 + the crossing illusion). Color and size are for **secondary, low-precision** encoding — category hue or rough magnitude, never a value read off accurately. Avoid 3-D entirely (rank 5). **Caveat:** the ranking is for *precise value extraction* — for "spot the cluster/outlier/shape," a dense scatter or heatmap can beat a long bar list; don't quote exact error percentages.
+
+### Bertin's visual variables — what each encoding *can* mean
+
+The theory under the Marks card. Four properties decide which data role a variable can carry:
+
+| Property | Has it | Lacks it |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Selective** (isolate a group instantly) | hue, size, value, position, orientation | **shape** |
+| **Associative** (still reads as one group when varied) | hue, shape, orientation, texture | size, value |
+| **Ordered** (reads as a sequence, no legend) | size, value, position | **hue** (no natural order) |
+| **Quantitative** (supports "twice as big") | **position, size** | most others |
+
+**Marks-card mapping:** quantitative measure → Rows/Columns (position) best, then Size, then sequential color *value* for low precision. Ordered → position/size/sequential palette, **never hue**. Nominal → **hue** (selective + associative), or shape for ≤~6 categories but pair with color since shape isn't selective. Label/Text isn't a Bertin variable but is the honest way to deliver an exact value. **Caveat:** size "quantitative" is aspirational — size judgments obey Weber's law (below), so they're approximate.
+
+### Tufte — graphical integrity and the discipline of less
+
+- **Data-ink ratio** = data-ink / total ink; "above all else show data; erase non-data-ink; erase redundant data-ink." → cut gridlines/borders/shading (the *mechanics* are in typography-and-polish); direct-label instead of a legend where it declutters.
+- **The Lie Factor** = effect shown / effect in data; honest ≈ 1.0. → bars **must include zero** (length encodes from a common baseline); label units; deflate money to constant dollars.
+- **Small multiples**: "Compared to what?" — visually enforce comparison; synchronize axes so panels compare.
+- **Chartjunk** — decoration that dominates the data ("the duck," moiré, heavy grids).
+
+**Where Tufte is contested (don't present minimalism as settled):** the "useful junk?" research (Bateman 2010, Borkin 2013) found embellished/memorable charts recalled *better* with no accuracy penalty — so pure minimalism optimizes comprehension, **not** retention; for journalism/marketing, controlled embellishment can be right. Few keeps faint gridlines because they aid value lookup (Heer & Bostock agree). **Accessibility outranks minimalism** when they conflict. Tufte wrote for print — interactivity (tooltips, drill) lets you keep the overview clean and put detail on demand.
+
+### Few — the bullet graph rationale + pre-attentive emphasis
+
+Few applied the perception research to dashboards. The lasting ideas: **a number with no context (target/prior/benchmark) is meaningless**; **gray as the default + one accent hue** for what needs attention (vary intensity not hue for ordered data); override Show Me's pie/gauge suggestions. The **bullet graph** (his invention, replaces gauges) is *why* it works: a single linear quantitative scale (position, rank 1), a comparative target marker, and 2–5 qualitative bands in **shades of one hue** (not traffic lights — colorblind-hostile). The build is in advanced-chart-builds; this is the rationale. **Pre-attentive attributes** (perceived <250ms): color, form, 2-D position, motion — use *one* to make the key mark pop; a conjunction (red **and** square) forces slow serial search, so gray-everything + color-the-one-mark is pop-out done right. **Caveat:** Few's pie/gauge absolutism softens for a 2–3-slice part-to-whole; "single screen, monitor" excludes analytical dashboards that legitimately drill.
+
+### Gestalt, pre-attentive, and Weber's law
+
+**Gestalt grouping** → layout: **proximity** (near = related; group with padding/whitespace, not borders), **similarity** (a measure is the same hue everywhere), **enclosure** (subtle shading/border groups a section), **continuity** (align edges; a line literally connects — slope, dumbbell, flow), **figure/ground** (saturated data on a quiet background). **Weber's law / JND:** the smallest noticeable difference is ~proportional to magnitude (size ≈10%, lightness ≈8%) — so **don't encode fine distinctions with bubble size or color bins** (100/105/110 are indistinguishable as bubbles); use bars. Keep size legends where the largest is ≥~2× the smallest's area; keep color to ≤~5–7 stepped bins.
+
+### Distortion — the mechanism, and the Tableau setting that causes it
+
+- **Truncated axis:** bars encode length from zero — a non-zero baseline inflates the ratio and lies. Keep zero on bars (don't uncheck "Include zero" on Edit Axis). Lines encode by position, so a non-zero baseline can be legitimate *if labeled*.
+- **Dual-axis deception:** two unrelated measures on independent scales can be made to "cross" anywhere by choosing scales — a manufactured correlation. Prefer a shared/blended axis or index both to a common base (% change); if you must dual, synchronize and label.
+- **Area exaggeration:** doubling a value doubles a bubble's *area* but radius grows as √ — viewers over-read big bubbles. Rough-only, or use bars.
+- **Overplotting:** dense scatters occlude — use opacity, density marks, or small multiples.
+- **Banking to ~45°** (Cleveland): slope judgments are most accurate when average segment slope is near 45°; adjust the worksheet aspect ratio (no auto-bank in Tableau).
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- Presenting a heuristic as a law — quoting "bars beat pies" without the perceptual *why*, or stating minimalism as settled when the memorability research contests it.
+- Encoding a value the viewer must read precisely with color or area (rank 4–6) instead of position/length (rank 1–3).
+- Spending every pre-attentive attribute at once (rainbow every category) so nothing pops — instead of gray-default + one accent.
+- Using hue for *ordered* data (hue has no natural order) instead of a sequential lightness palette.
+- Encoding fine distinctions with bubble size despite Weber's law.
+- Letting minimalism override accessibility (color-alone encoding, sub-contrast labels).
+
+## Implementation
+
+When recommending or critiquing an encoding, reason from the judgment the viewer must make: precise comparison → position/length; rough structure → area/color with drill for exact. Match medium to message, encode by data role (Bertin), spend attention deliberately (one accent), don't lie (zero baseline, no deceptive dual axis), declutter within reason (accessibility wins), and verify by showing it to a real viewer. Apply the *applied* rules from the sibling entries — this entry supplies the rationale to cite, not a second copy of those rules. For a structured review/redesign pass, this is the lens behind a critique.
+

+- Grounds the opinionated rules in [Chart Type Selection](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/chart-selection.md) (why bars > pies, shared > dual axis) and [Chart Best Practices](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/chart-best-practices.md).
+- Supplies the *why* behind [Color Strategy](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/color-strategy.md) (sequential vs hue, CVD, rainbow-is-broken) and [Formatting & Professional Polish](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/typography-and-polish.md) (data-ink, gridlines) — those own the applied palettes/formatting; this owns the perceptual reason.

+# Discrete Groups vs. Gradient: Encode "Which Group", Not the Raw Measure
+
+Strategy guide for one high-leverage encoding decision: when a request is about **membership in a few distinct groups** (tiers, bands, top/bottom/middle, segments, pass/fail), color (or shape) must encode the **group**, not the underlying continuous value. Tool-agnostic design intent; it does not cover continuous heatmaps or single-measure gradients, which are legitimately gradient work.
+
+Enforced-by: redundant-color-encoding
+
+**Tactics companion:** `expertise://tableau/tactics/viz/marks-and-encodings` — the discrete-tier color XML and the gradient-vs-discrete encoding forms ("Discrete-tier color").
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine
+- In-scope reason: Guides Claude to choose discrete color encodings (groups) vs. gradients so membership-based requests (top/bottom tiers) render correctly.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: color, discrete-color, tiers, top-bottom-middle, groups, buckets, segments, bands, gradient-vs-discrete, color-by-group, color-encoding, marks, membership, categorical-color, performers
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "color the bars into discrete groups not a gradient", "top and bottom profit performers colored by tier", "color a bar chart by a group instead of the measure value", "discrete color tiers top middle bottom", "how do I color marks by category not by value", "color by which group not by the number", "stop coloring by the measure gradient", "high medium low color bands", "color the winners and losers differently", "make the color a tier instead of a heatmap"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Reach for a discrete-group encoding the moment the ask names **categories of standing** rather than a smooth quantity:
+
+- "the top performers and the bottom performers" → three groups (top / bottom / the rest)
+- "high / medium / low", "above vs. below target", "winners and losers", "A/B/C tiers"
+- any "show which of these N buckets each item falls into"
+
+The tell is that the answer is a **label** ("Top"), not a **number**. If the reader's question is *"which group is this?"*, the encoding must answer with a distinct, unordered-looking color per group — not a position on a gradient they have to mentally threshold.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Build a bucketing calculated field first.** A dimension calc whose formula returns a small set of string labels (e.g. an `IF/ELSEIF` that assigns each row to a named group). Put THAT field on color. The groups are then discrete swatches a reader can name at a glance.
+2. **Color encodes the group; position/size encodes the magnitude.** Let the bar length / axis carry the continuous value, and let color carry membership. They are different channels doing different jobs.
+3. **Reserve gradients for genuinely continuous questions** — "how hot", "how dense", "how far from zero". A diverging red-white-blue gradient is correct for *"how profitable is each, on a continuum"*; it is the WRONG encoding for *"which of my three groups is this"*.
+4. **If you must pin specific hues** (e.g. grey for a muted "everyone else" middle), assign per-member colors on the discrete field — don't switch back to a measure gradient to get the colors you want.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Coloring by the raw measure when the ask was about groups.** The single most common version: the request says "top/bottom/middle groups," and the build puts the measure (e.g. the value already on the bar's axis) on color, producing a continuous gradient. A gradient cannot say "this is the *bottom* group" — only "this is a slightly lower value." It silently answers a different question than the one asked.
+2. **Coloring a mark by a value it already encodes positionally.** If the same field is on the axis (bar length, position) AND on color, the color is redundant — the bar already shows that value. This is the fingerprint of "reached for a gradient instead of designing the group encoding." Color should add a dimension the position doesn't.
+3. **Treating "diverging looks nice" as the design.** Aesthetics of a palette ≠ the right encoding. Choose the encoding from the *question* (membership vs. magnitude), then pick a palette to fit it.
+4. **Skipping the bucketing calc because sorting "kind of" shows the groups.** Sorting puts extremes at the ends, but it does not *label* membership; a reader still can't tell where "top" stops and "the middle" begins without the discrete encoding.
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. Author a dimension calculated field that buckets rows into the named groups (an `IF/ELSEIF/ELSE` returning string labels). Register it like any calc; reference it on a shelf as its discrete `none:` column-instance (a dimension calc on a shelf must be `none:` / `derivation="None"`, never `usr:` — see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/calc-fields`).
+2. Put that bucketing field on **Color** (`<color column="[ds].[none:<GroupCalc>:nk]"/>`). Keep the continuous measure on the axis/shelf where it conveys magnitude.
+3. To pin specific hues per group, map members on the discrete field in the datasource `<style>` node (`<encoding attr="color" type="palette"><map to="#..."><bucket>...` — see `expertise://tableau/tactics/viz/marks-and-encodings` "Discrete-tier color").
+4. Verify by opening the viz: the legend should read as a short list of named groups, not a continuous color ramp.

+# Marks, Encodings & Chart Configuration
+
+Strategy guide for the Tableau marks card — *which* encoding channel to use and *why*, mark-type selection, label display decisions, color strategy, and when each chart-specific pattern (Gantt, maps, dual-axis) is the right call.
+
+Tags: marks, encodings, mark-types, color, labels
+
+**Tactics companion:** `expertise://tableau/tactics/viz/marks-and-encodings` — the XML/authoring mechanics for this topic.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: This guides Claude when assigning fields to visual channels like color and size, configuring labels, and building chart-specific patterns such as Gantt charts or dual-axis views for Tableau dashboards.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: marks, encodings, mark-types, color, labels, size, detail, tooltip, gantt, dual-axis, maps, choropleth
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "what should I put on the Color shelf", "how to add labels to marks", "Gantt chart configuration", "dual axis chart setup", "filled map color encoding", "mark size not showing", "tooltip customization", "Detail shelf vs aggregation", "Line vs Bar mark type", "when to use continuous vs discrete dates"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+- **Assigning a field to a visual channel** — color, size, shape, text/label, detail, tooltip
+- **Changing the mark type** — Bar, Line, Circle, Area, GanttBar, Pie, Text, etc.
+- **Configuring label display** — enabling mark labels, styling font/color, controlling position
+- **Setting a custom color palette** — continuous diverging or sequential
+- **Building a Gantt chart** with a size encoding for duration
+- **Creating a dual-axis chart** with two mark types overlaid
+- **Adding a filled map (choropleth)** with color encoding
+- **Controlling aggregation level** — aggregate mode vs. one mark per row
+
+---
+
+## Encoding Channels (Marks Card)
+
+The marks card exposes these encoding channels:
+
+| Channel | What it does | Typical field type |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Color** | Encodes a field using hue or a sequential/diverging palette | Dimension (categorical) or Measure (continuous) |
+| **Size** | Scales mark size by a measure | Measure |
+| **Text / Label** | Displays a field value as a text label on each mark | Measure or Dimension |
+| **Detail** | Adds granularity without a visible encoding (increases mark count) | Dimension |
+| **Tooltip** | Adds fields to the hover tooltip without placing them on the view | Any |
+| **Shape** | Encodes a dimension with distinct shapes | Dimension (low cardinality — up to ~25 shapes) |
+| **Path** | Controls the order marks are connected for Line charts | Dimension or Date |
+
+**Detail channel note:** placing a dimension on Detail increases the view's level of detail — useful when you need one mark per entity (e.g., Order ID) without encoding that field visually. This is the mechanism behind scatter plot granularity control and data densification patterns.
+
+---
+
+## Mark Types
+
+Change via the mark type dropdown at the top of the marks card:
+
+| Mark type | Typical use |
+|---|---|
+| **Automatic** | Tableau chooses based on shelf configuration |
+| **Bar** | Categorical comparisons |
+| **Line** | Time series, trends |
+| **Area** | Stacked or filled time series |
+| **Circle** | Scatter plots, dot plots |
+| **Square** | Filled square marks |
+| **Shape** | Shape-encoded scatter |
+| **Text** | Text tables, BAN numbers |
+| **Pie** | Part-to-whole (use sparingly; max ~6 slices) |
+| **Gantt Bar** | Timeline / project schedule charts |
+| **Polygon** | Custom shape outlines |
+
+**Automatic** is appropriate for most cases — Tableau selects Bar when a dimension is on one axis and a measure on the other, Line when a date is on Cols, etc. Manually override when you need a specific type (e.g., force Circle for a scatter with a date axis that Tableau would auto-render as Line).
+
+---
+
+## Color Encoding
+
+**Categorical (dimension on Color):** Tableau assigns one color per member. Open the color legend → **Edit Colors** to change palette or assign specific colors.
+
+**Continuous (measure on Color):** Tableau uses a sequential or diverging palette. Double-click the color legend → select a palette → adjust start/end colors and the range.
+
+**Fixed colors per member:** right-click a mark in the view → **Mark Color** to pin a specific color to one member regardless of the palette.
+
+**Colorblind accessibility:** in Edit Colors, Tableau offers Color Blind 10 as a built-in palette. Avoid encoding information with red vs. green alone.
+
+---
+
+## Size Encoding
+
+Drag a measure to **Size** on the marks card. Tableau scales mark sizes proportionally to the measure.
+
+Adjust the size range via the Size legend → drag the slider to widen or narrow the range. For bubble charts, a wider range makes small vs. large differences more legible.
+
+**Fixed size (no encoding):** click **Size** on the marks card without a field dropped on it → use the slider to set a uniform size.
+
+---
+
+## Label / Text Encoding
+
+Drag a field to **Text** or **Label** on the marks card to display values on each mark.
+
+**Enable labels:** click the **Label** button on the marks card → check **Show mark labels**. This is separate from having a field on Text — both must be true for labels to appear.
+
+**Label placement options:**
+- **Automatic** — Tableau places labels to minimize overlap
+- **Always show** — shows all labels, overlaps permitted
+- **Never overlap** — suppresses labels that would overlap
+
+**Label mode controls** (click Label → expand):
+- **Line ends** — labels only at start and end of lines
+- **Most recent** — label at the rightmost time point (Line marks only)
+- **Min/Max** — labels at the minimum and maximum values
+
+**Label font and color:** click **Label** → **Font** to change family, size, and weight. **Color-mode: match** inherits the mark color; otherwise set an explicit color.
+
+---
+
+## Tooltip Encoding
+
+Add fields to Tooltip on the marks card to include them in hover tooltips without placing them in the view.
+
+**Customize tooltip text:** click **Tooltip** on the marks card → edit the tooltip text. You can format it with HTML-like styling (bold, font size, color) and control which fields appear and in what order. The default auto-generated tooltip shows all fields in the view — customize it to show only the 2-3 most meaningful values with plain-language labels.
+
+**Viz in Tooltip:** insert a sheet reference into the tooltip to display a linked mini-viz on hover. Use Insert → Sheet in the tooltip editor.
+
+---
+
+## Continuous vs Discrete Dates on Time-Series Axes
+
+For line/area charts over time, continuous date is almost always better:
+
+| | Discrete date | Continuous date |
+|---|---|---|
+| Pill color | Blue (dimension) | Green (measure) |
+| Axis type | Category ticks per period | True continuous time axis |
+| Gaps | None — all periods shown equally | Shows true time spacing |
+| Best for | Ranked/ordinal comparisons | Trends, time series |
+
+Right-click a date pill → toggle between discrete and continuous (or drag and drop to switch).
+
+---
+
+## Gantt Chart Pattern
+
+Mark type: **Gantt Bar**
+
+Standard layout:
+- **Cols:** continuous date (truncated to day or hour) — controls bar start position
+- **Rows:** dimension — one row per category/entity
+- **Size encoding:** duration measure — controls bar length
+- **Color encoding:** optional status or category field
+
+The size encoding is what makes bars extend — without a measure on Size, all Gantt bars have zero length.
+
+**Date truncation tip:** use `DATETRUNC('day', [Start Date])` as a calculated field so the bars align to day boundaries.
+
+---
+
+## Filled Map (Choropleth)
+
+Requirements:
+- A geographic dimension with geographic role assigned (State, Country, ZIP Code, etc.)
+- Assign the role: right-click the field in the Data pane → **Geographic Role** → select the appropriate type
+
+**Build the map:** double-click the geographic dimension — Tableau automatically places it on Rows/Cols as Latitude/Longitude generated fields and sets mark type to Map. Drop a measure on Color to create a choropleth.
+
+**Color tuning:** double-click the color legend → adjust start color, end color, and the stepped/continuous setting. For diverging maps (positive/negative), choose a diverging palette with a center value at 0.
+
+**Tooltip on maps:** especially important — the tooltip is often the only way to show the exact value for a region. Customize it to include the region name and the measure.
+
+---
+
+## Dual-Axis Chart
+
+A dual-axis chart overlays two mark types on the same axis (e.g., Line + Circle, Bar + Line).
+
+**Build:**
+1. Place two measures on Rows (or Cols)
+2. Right-click the second measure's axis → **Dual Axis**
+3. Right-click again → **Synchronize Axis** if you want matching scales
+4. Change the mark type for each measure independently using the per-measure mark card (two separate mark cards appear when dual axis is active)
+
+**Common uses:**
+- Line (trend) + Circle (individual data points) — emphasizes both trend and values
+- Bar (actuals) + Line (target/average) — budget vs. actual comparisons
+- Bump chart: dual axis with the same calc twice, reversed axis for rank-at-top
+
+**Axis reversal** for rank charts: right-click the rank axis → **Edit Axis** → check **Reversed**.
+
+---
+
+## Reference Lines
+
+Add a reference line to contextualize marks against a target or average.
+
+**Add:** right-click the axis → **Add Reference Line** → choose:
+- **Line:** constant value, field value (average, median, etc.), or parameter
+- **Band:** shaded region between two values
+- **Distribution:** percentile bands or standard deviation bands
+
+Set the label to **None**, **Value**, or **Custom** text. For clean dashboards, minimizing reference line labels reduces clutter — let the line speak visually.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Use color to encode one variable, not to decorate.** Color on a bar chart that also uses position for the same variable wastes a channel. Assign color to a *different* variable.
+- **Prefer fewer encoding channels.** Each channel added competes for attention. Position (x/y) + one secondary channel (color or size) is usually enough.
+- **Continuous dates for trends, discrete for period comparisons.** A continuous date axis shows true time spacing; discrete treats all periods as equal width.
+- **Enable mark label culling to avoid clutter.** When showing labels on all marks, Tableau can suppress overlapping labels automatically — leave this enabled except on intentionally sparse views.
+- **Gantt bars need both a date on Cols and a duration on Size.** Missing either makes bars invisible.
+- **Don't encode the same variable on two channels simultaneously** (e.g., bar length AND color both = Sales). Use the second channel for a different measure or dimension.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **No labels showing despite a field on Text.** Labels require two things: a field on the Text encoding AND the Label button set to "Show mark labels." Having only one isn't enough.
+2. **Map not coloring correctly.** If Tableau isn't recognizing geographic values, the geographic role may not be set. Right-click the field → Geographic Role → assign the correct type.
+3. **Gantt bars all zero-length.** No field is on the Size encoding. Drop the duration measure onto Size.
+4. **Dual-axis scales not aligned.** After creating a dual axis, right-click the secondary axis → Synchronize Axis so both axes share the same scale. Without synchronization, visual comparisons are misleading.
+5. **Using Area mark for overlapping series without opacity.** Multiple area series on the same pane overlap and obscure each other. Set opacity to 40-60% via Marks card → Color → Opacity, or use a stacked area (Analysis → Stack Marks → On).
+6. **Color palette not updating for all marks.** If the color palette looks wrong after changing it, check whether the view has multiple mark cards (dual axis creates separate mark cards per measure — each needs to be updated independently).
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+Work the decision in this order: (1) pick the mark type for the question, (2) assign each variable to the channel that reads best (position > length > color/size), (3) decide labels and reference lines for the *one* number that matters. For the XML node structure behind any of these, see the tactics companion above, then verify the result in Tableau.

+# Filter Strategy
+
+Strategy guide for *choosing* the right filter approach in Tableau — which filter type fits the question, and how Tableau's order of operations dictates the sequence you must build filters in to get correct results.
+
+
+**Tactics companion:** `expertise://tableau/tactics/viz/filters` — the XML/authoring mechanics for this topic.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude choose correct filter types and order-of-operations sequencing so FIXED LOD, Top N, and cross-sheet filters work as intended.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: filters, context-filters, top-n, date-filters, order-of-operations
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "top N within each region", "top 10 by category", "context filter", "filter order of operations", "limit to top performers per group", "rank within a partition"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+- **Filtering a worksheet to specific dimension values** (e.g., Region = "East", Segment in {Consumer, Corporate})
+- **Applying a date filter** — categorical (year/quarter/month) or continuous (date range)
+- **Creating a Top N filter** that limits a dimension to its top N members by a measure
+- **Setting up cross-sheet filters** that synchronize multiple worksheets on a dashboard
+- **Applying a context filter** to scope FIXED LOD calculations or Top N filters
+- **Filtering Measure Names** to control which measures appear in a crosstab
+- **Debugging why a filter doesn't affect a FIXED LOD** — refer to the Order of Operations section
+
+---
+
+## Tableau Order of Operations (Filter Evaluation Order)
+
+Filters don't all run at the same time. This order explains why a dashboard filter may not affect a FIXED LOD calculation:
+
+1. Extract Filters
+2. Data Source Filters
+3. **Context Filters** ← runs before FIXED LOD
+4. Sets / Top N / **FIXED LOD Expressions**
+5. **Dimension Filters** ← standard quick filters
+6. INCLUDE / EXCLUDE LOD Expressions
+7. **Measure Filters**
+8. Table Calculations
+9. Table Calc Filters
+10. Trend / Reference Lines
+
+**Key takeaway:** a standard dimension filter (step 5) runs *after* FIXED LOD (step 4). To make a filter scope a FIXED LOD calculation, it must be a context filter (step 3).
+
+---
+
+## Filter Types
+
+### Categorical Filter
+
+Use to include or exclude specific dimension members.
+
+**Add:** drag a dimension to the **Filters** shelf → select **Use all**, **Select from list**, **Custom value list**, or **Use all** → OK.
+
+**Include specific values:** check the members you want to keep.
+
+**Exclude values:** switch the dialog to **Exclude** mode — useful for filtering out "Other" or "N/A" members.
+
+### Date Filter
+
+Date fields offer two filter modes in the dialog:
+
+| Mode | What it does |
+|---|---|
+| **Relative date** | Rolling window: last N days/weeks/months/years, anchored to today |
+| **Range of dates** | Fixed start and end date |
+| **Years / Quarters / Months / Weeks / Days** | Discrete date part filter — pick which years or months to include |
+
+Dragging a date to Filters and choosing a discrete date part (e.g., Year) creates a categorical filter on that part — useful for "show only 2024 and 2025".
+
+Choosing "Range of dates" creates a continuous date range filter with a date slider.
+
+### Continuous Range Filter (Measures)
+
+Drag a measure to **Filters** → select an aggregation → set the range (at least, at most, range, or special).
+
+Used to filter to values above a threshold (e.g., Sales > $10,000) or within a range.
+
+### Top N Filter
+
+Limits a dimension to its top or bottom N members ranked by a measure.
+
+**⇒ Wrong-fork check:** need to KEEP the other rows (tag them into groups, e.g. roll the middle into an "Everyone Else" bar), not remove them? A Top-N filter *removes* rows; a **SET** *tags* membership. That's a set, not a filter. See [Membership vs. Value](data/knowledge/strategy/analytics/calc-fields-strategy.md#membership-vs-value). Use the Top N filter below only when you genuinely want the other members GONE.
+
+**Add:** drag a dimension to Filters → go to the **Top** tab → select **By field** → set N and the measure.
+
+Top N runs in the same order-of-operations slot as FIXED LOD (step 4). To scope it to a context (e.g., top 10 per region), make the scoping filter a context filter.
+
+**Table calc approach for Top N:** create an `INDEX()` or `RANK()` calc with the desired Compute Using, then add a table calc filter on that field (keep INDEX <= N). Table calc filters run at step 9 — after all aggregation — so they respect the full view without needing context.
+
+### Context Filter
+
+Context filters run at step 3, before FIXED LOD and Top N. Make any filter a context filter when:
+- A FIXED LOD should be scoped by the filter
+- A Top N filter should apply within the context of another filter
+
+**Make a filter a context filter:** right-click the filter pill in the Filters shelf → **Add to Context**. The pill turns gray.
+
+Context filters apply to the extract/data source first, so they can improve query performance by reducing the dataset size before downstream calculations run.
+
+### Cross-Sheet Filter (Apply to Worksheets)
+
+A filter on one worksheet can control other worksheets on the same dashboard.
+
+**Set up:** add the filter control to the dashboard → click the dropdown arrow on the filter control → **Apply to Worksheets** → choose **Selected Worksheets** or **All Using This Data Source**.
+
+The filter then appears in the Filters shelf of the target worksheets automatically. Each target worksheet evaluates the filter independently based on its own view structure.
+
+**Important:** Cross-sheet filters only work when all worksheets share the same data source (or a related source). If a target worksheet uses a different data source, the filter won't appear as an option.
+
+### Measure Names / Values Filter
+
+In a multi-measure crosstab using Measure Names and Measure Values, add Measure Names to the Filters shelf to control which measures appear.
+
+Select the measures to include from the list. This is equivalent to choosing which measures to show in the Measure Values card.
+
+---
+
+## Filter Controls on Dashboards
+
+Drag a filter control from a worksheet to the dashboard, or click the dropdown on any sheet → **Filters** to add a control.
+
+**Control types** (right-click the control on the dashboard → **Customize**):
+- Single value (dropdown)
+- Single value (list)
+- Single value (slider)
+- Multiple values (dropdown)
+- Multiple values (list)
+- Multiple values (custom list)
+- Wildcard match
+
+**Compact controls** (single row dropdowns) are best for top-bar filter layouts. Full list controls are better for right-sidebar layouts where vertical space is available.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Use context filters when a FIXED LOD or Top N must be scoped by another filter.** Standard dimension filters run after FIXED LOD — they won't affect it.
+- **Use table calc filters (INDEX/RANK) for flexible Top N.** Unlike the native Top N dialog, a table calc filter respects all other filters and gives full control over partitioning.
+- **Choose the right date filter mode for the use case.** Relative date ("Last 12 months") is better for always-current dashboards; Range of dates is better for fixed reporting periods.
+- **Be specific about what Cross-Sheet filters apply to.** "All Using This Data Source" can unexpectedly filter unrelated worksheets on the dashboard. Prefer "Selected Worksheets" for surgical control.
+- **Keep filter controls close to the content they control.** A filter placed far from the chart it affects confuses users about what it does.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **FIXED LOD not responding to a dashboard filter.** Standard dimension filters run at step 5, after FIXED LOD at step 4. Fix: right-click the filter → Add to Context.
+2. **Top N showing wrong results when combined with another filter.** If the other filter is a dimension filter (step 5), it runs after Top N (step 4). The top N is computed on the unfiltered set. Fix: make the scoping filter a context filter, or switch to a table calc approach.
+3. **Cross-sheet filter not appearing in another worksheet.** The target worksheet must use the same data source (or a related one). Check that the target sheet's data source matches, and that "Apply to Worksheets" includes it.
+4. **Date filter showing wrong granularity.** If you wanted to filter by a date range but got a year list instead, you chose a discrete date part in the filter dialog rather than "Range of dates." Reopen the filter, select the field again, and choose Range of dates.
+5. **Exclude filter accidentally removing nulls.** When excluding specific members, Tableau's default behavior also excludes nulls. Use **Special** tab in the filter dialog to explicitly include or exclude nulls as needed.
+6. **Applying a measure filter when a table calc filter was needed.** Measure filters (step 7) run before table calculations (step 8), so a measure filter on a field derived from a table calc may not work as expected. Filter on the table calc result at step 9 instead using a table calc filter.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+Use the sections above as the implementation reference for Tableau authoring. Apply the relevant pattern in the workbook or dashboard, then verify the result in Tableau for correctness, readability, and customer-safe behavior.

+# Flow Diagrams & Sankey — Be Honest About the Scaffold, Then Propose the Faithful Alternative
+
+A multi-step, proportional **Sankey** ("show how budget flows from source to destination", "flow diagram between stages") is a build Tableau *can* produce, but not as a field swap onto the user's data. A faithful Sankey needs a **reshaped/densified scaffold data source** (a per-flow `t`-bin plus a sigmoid curve calc), which is the source of truth — so it cannot be one-shot reliably, and **cycles in the flows render incorrectly**. The correct response is neither a silent (and likely wrong) densified build nor a flat refusal: **name the scaffold cost and the cycles caveat in one honest sentence, then route to the cheaper faithful option that answers the same question** — a `MAKELINE` origin→destination flow map when the flows are geographic, or a 100%-stacked / part-to-whole bar for single-step proportional allocation — and offer to hand over the full scaffold recipe if the user genuinely needs the multi-step Sankey.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: refine, create, validate, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Turns a "build me a Sankey / flow diagram" request into an honest propose-path — states why a proportional multi-step Sankey is a reshaped/densified scaffold (not a bindable field swap), warns that cycles break most implementations, and maps the underlying intent (geographic movement / single-step proportional allocation / full multi-step flow) to the faithful alternative so the guidance is a redirect, not a hallucinated build.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: sankey, sankey-diagram, flow-diagram, flow-chart, alluvial, budget-allocation, flow-allocation, source-target, origin-destination, makeline, hundred-percent-stacked-bar, part-to-whole, densification, scaffold, reshape, sigmoid, cycles, propose-path, pushback, chart-selection
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "build a sankey diagram", "make a sankey chart", "can you build a sankey", "sankey diagram for budget allocation", "flow diagram showing budget allocation", "visualize flow between source and target", "show how money flows between categories", "sankey showing flow between stages", "alluvial diagram", "flow chart of budget allocation across departments", "diagram showing where the budget goes", "origin destination flow", "sankey of user journey between steps"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Reach for this when a request implies a **proportional flow between nodes**:
+
+- "Build me a Sankey" / "make a Sankey diagram" / "alluvial diagram."
+- "Show how the budget flows / is allocated from X to Y (to Z)."
+- "Visualize the flow between source and target" / "user journey between steps."
+- Any multi-stage "where does it go" allocation where the width of each ribbon is proportional to a measure.
+
+This is the *chart-choice honesty gate* for that specific request. For general chart selection see the chart-selection companion; for the full densified build mechanic (once the user accepts the scaffold cost) see the advanced-chart-builds companion.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Lead with the scaffold truth, not a silent build.** A proportional multi-step Sankey in Tableau is not a field swap onto the user's data — it is a *reshaped/densified scaffold*: each flow record is scaffolded and densified with a `t` bin (e.g. 1..49), a **sigmoid** calc maps `t` to the S-curve, and FIXED/rank calcs position each flow (Polygon curves + dual-axis Gantt end nodes). That scaffold *is* the source of truth. Say this in one sentence so the user understands why it can't be one-shot onto their table.
+2. **Name the cycles caveat.** Cycles in the flows (A→B→A, or any back-edge) break most Sankey implementations and render incorrectly. If the user's flows can loop, flag it up front — do not fake a build that will silently mislead.
+3. **Map the intent to the faithful alternative:**
+   - *Flows are geographic (origin → destination, routes, movement between places)* → a **spatial O-D flow map**: `MAKELINE(MAKEPOINT([OLat],[OLon]), MAKEPOINT([DLat],[DLon]))` draws one line mark per route (latitude **first** in `MAKEPOINT`). This is the modern, no-reshaping native alternative to the densified-path Sankey hack; it needs a spatial-capable source.
+   - *Single-step proportional allocation (one source split across parts, "what share goes where")* → a **100%-stacked bar** or a sorted **part-to-whole** bar. It answers "what proportion of the total goes to each destination" precisely, with no scaffold, and reads far better than a two-node Sankey.
+   - *A genuine multi-step flow is truly required* → offer to **hand over the scaffold recipe** (the densified `t`-bin + sigmoid build) so the user can construct the full Sankey manually from a known-good reference workbook, rather than the agent guessing a densified build.
+4. **Prefer the simpler Sankey variant if one is built at all.** If the user insists on a Sankey, the modern **Equal-Width Sankey** is easier and more robust than the classic proportional-curve scaffold — but it is still a scaffold, not a bind.
+5. **Do not fabricate a densified build to look responsive.** There are **zero Sankey exemplars in the corpus**, so there is no golden to compile from or stamp against — a blind densified attempt is a correctness landmine, not a fast path.
+
+### Honest propose-path language (say this)
+
+> "A proportional multi-step Sankey in Tableau requires a reshaped/densified scaffold data source (a per-flow `t`-bin + sigmoid curve calc), not a field swap onto your data — so I can't one-shot it reliably, and cycles in your flows would render incorrectly. Cheaper faithful options: (a) a spatial origin→destination flow map via `MAKELINE(MAKEPOINT(...))` if your flows are geographic; (b) a 100%-stacked / part-to-whole bar for single-step proportional allocation; (c) I can hand you the scaffold recipe to build the full Sankey manually."
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Silently hallucinating a densified Sankey build** onto the user's table — the core anti-pattern this entry exists to stop. The scaffold is the source of truth; there is nothing to field-swap into.
+2. **Flat-refusing** ("Tableau can't do Sankeys") without offering the alternative that answers the question — untrue and unhelpful. It can, via a scaffold; the honest move is to propose the cheaper faithful path.
+3. **Ignoring cycles** — building (or promising) a Sankey when the flows can loop; cycles render incorrectly and quietly mislead.
+4. **Reaching for the Sankey when a 100%-stacked bar was the real ask** — a single-step "what share goes where" is a part-to-whole bar, not a two-node flow diagram.
+5. **Densified-path Sankey for geographic movement** when a `MAKELINE` O-D flow map is native, no-reshaping, and more honest.
+6. **Treating "non-blank" as "correct"** — a Sankey that renders is not necessarily a Sankey that's *right*; without a golden to verify against, the addressing/curve interpolation can be silently wrong.
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. Restate the underlying question: geographic movement, single-step proportional allocation, or a genuine multi-step flow?
+2. Name the scaffold cost and the cycles caveat in one line (use the propose-path language above).
+3. Route to the matching faithful alternative:
+   - Geographic → `MAKELINE(MAKEPOINT(lat, lon), MAKEPOINT(lat, lon))` O-D flow map (latitude first; spatial-capable source required).
+   - Single-step allocation → 100%-stacked or sorted part-to-whole bar (`% of Total`).
+   - Multi-step required → hand over the densified scaffold recipe from the advanced-chart-builds companion (per-flow `t`-bin 1..49 + sigmoid + FIXED/rank positioning, Polygon curves + Gantt end nodes; keep the scaffold workbook as the source of truth), and build from a known-good reference rather than guessing.
+4. If a Sankey is built, prefer the **Equal-Width Sankey** variant and set every table-calc **Compute Using** explicitly along the densification bin — addressing is the #1 failure mode.
+5. Verify decisively: confirm the flows have no cycles, and open in Tableau to confirm the curve interpolation and end-node positions rendered as intended — a rendered scaffold is not proof of a correct Sankey.

+# Overlaid & Stacked Pie Charts — Push Back, Then Offer a Readable Alternative
+
+"Overlay multiple pie charts" and "stack / nest two pie charts" ask for a build Tableau *can* produce (dual-axis pies) but that is one of the weakest ways to show the data. People compare angles poorly to begin with; layering pies compounds it — overlapping slices occlude one another and a small inner pie is unreadable. The correct response is neither a silent build nor a flat refusal: **name the readability cost in one sentence, then offer the alternative that answers the same question** (usually a sorted or 100% stacked bar, small multiples, a treemap, or a dual-axis whose second mark is a bar/line — not a pie). Build the overlaid/nested pie only if the user still wants it after hearing the tradeoff, and then cap it.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: refine, create, validate
+- In-scope reason: Turns a "make my pies overlap / stack" request into a design-quality pushback-and-redirect — states why layered pies read poorly, maps the underlying intent (compare groups / show hierarchy / two measures) to the more legible chart, and gives the honest "if you insist" build so the guidance is a redirect, not a refusal.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: pie-chart, overlaid-pies, stacked-pie, nested-pie, donut, part-to-whole, chart-readability, pushback, small-multiples, hundred-percent-stacked-bar, treemap, dual-axis-pie, angle-comparison, chart-selection
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "overlaying multiple pie charts", "overlay multiple pie charts", "stacking 2 pie charts", "stack two pie charts", "nested pie chart", "pie chart within a pie chart", "compare multiple pie charts on one view", "layer pie charts on top of each other", "make my pies overlap", "switch inner and outer ring of a stacked pie", "is it a good idea to stack pie charts", "better chart than overlapping pies"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Reach for this when a request implies **pie-on-pie** comparison:
+
+- "Overlay / superimpose multiple pie charts."
+- "Stack / nest two pies" (inner + outer ring), or "swap the inner and outer ring."
+- "Compare these pie charts" where the plan is to layer them.
+
+It is the *chart-choice pushback* for that specific request. For general chart selection see the chart-selection companion; for the actual dual-axis pie/donut build mechanics (once the tradeoff is accepted) see the advanced-chart-builds companion.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Lead with the tradeoff, not a refusal.** Pies are already low-precision (angle comparison); overlaying or nesting multiplies the cost (occlusion, invisible small slices, false alignment). Say so in a sentence and immediately offer the more legible option — this is "yes, and here's the way it will actually read," not "no."
+2. **Map the intent to the alternative:**
+   - *Compare the same categories across a few groups* → **small multiples** (one small pie per group) or, more precisely, a **grouped / 100% stacked bar**; a sorted horizontal bar per group is the safest read.
+   - *Two levels (inner = parent, outer = child)* → a **stacked / segmented bar** or a **treemap** shows the hierarchy far more precisely than nested rings.
+   - *Two measures (e.g. actual vs target as two rings)* → a **bullet / bar-in-bar**, or a **dual-axis where the second mark is a bar or line**, not a pie.
+3. **If they proceed anyway, cap the complexity.** Limit to **≤ 5 slices** per pie, turn **value labels on**, and never use **3D / exploded** pies (perspective distorts proportion). Nesting beyond two levels makes inner rings unreadable.
+4. **Build honestly, and reuse the recipe.** The legitimate mechanic for overlaid/donut pies is **dual-axis pies** — a `MIN(1)` placeholder axis duplicated, the top pie recolored to the background and shrunk via Size to punch a hole; total on Label. Cross-link that build rather than reinventing it.
+5. **Watch the dual-axis false-comparison trap.** Two pies overlaid on axes whose slices aren't on a shared scale invite a comparison the encoding can't support — the same way a dual-axis line/bar can suggest a false correlation.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Silently building the overlaid/nested pie** without flagging readability — the core anti-pattern this entry exists to stop.
+2. **Flat-refusing** ("pies are bad") without offering the alternative that answers the question — unhelpful and not what the user needs.
+3. **Nesting > 2 levels or > 5 slices per ring** — inner rings and small slices become invisible.
+4. **Comparing overlaid pie angles across groups** where a 100% stacked bar or small multiples would be read accurately and instantly.
+5. **3D / exploded pies** — perspective distortion makes the proportions lie.
+6. **Treating a stacked / nested pie as a precise part-to-whole read** — it is an impression, not a measurement.
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. Restate the underlying question: comparing groups, showing a two-level hierarchy, or plotting two measures?
+2. Name the pie-overlay readability cost in one line.
+3. Recommend the matching alternative — sorted / 100% stacked bar, small multiples, treemap (hierarchy), or bullet / dual-axis-with-a-bar (two measures).
+4. If the user still wants layered pies, cap to ≤ 5 labeled slices, no 3D, ≤ 2 rings, and build via the dual-axis pie recipe in the advanced-chart-builds companion.
+5. Verify decisively: show it to a representative viewer and confirm they can actually read the comparison the pies were meant to convey — if not, fall back to the bar alternative.

+# Storytelling with Data: Narrative & Decision-Driving
+
+How a viz stops being decoration and starts driving a decision: lead with the answer, structure the argument, title for the takeaway, tie every view to an action.
+
+The communication layer above chart choice and design — what to say, and how to frame it.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: refine, create
+- In-scope reason: Decides *what to say and how to frame it* before chart choice — action titles, BLUF/Pyramid structure, annotation-as-narrative, the "so what?" test. This is what makes Athena a consultant that drives a decision, not a chart vendor.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none (Pulse/alerts noted as Cloud "where this leads," not Desktop steps)
+- Tags: storytelling, narrative, action-titles, BLUF, pyramid-principle, annotation, knaflic, cairo, shneiderman, decision-driving, communication
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how do I make this dashboard tell a story", "what should the title say", "lead with the conclusion", "action title vs topic title", "how do I make the point clear", "annotate the key insight", "structure a data presentation", "make the viewer act"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this when the goal is communication/persuasion, not just display — when a user wants the dashboard to make a point, drive a decision, or "tell a story," or asks what the title/annotations should say. It sits *above* chart choice. The exploratory-vs-explanatory decision and the 5-second test live in [Dashboard Archetypes](data/knowledge/strategy/dashboard-design/dashboard-archetypes.md); the perceptual *why* in [Visual Design Principles](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/design-principles.md); chart choice in [Chart Type Selection](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/chart-selection.md); builds in [Advanced Chart Build Recipes](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/advanced-chart-builds.md). Cross-ref those — don't re-derive them here.
+
+> Schools of thought, not laws (Knaflic, Cairo, Minto). Strong defaults; name the context when you depart. The decisive test is whether the intended audience takes the intended action.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Lead with the answer — structure for a decision
+
+- **BLUF (bottom line up front):** lead with the conclusion; don't make a busy decision-maker wait for the punchline. *In Tableau:* the dashboard **title is the BLUF** — "Recommendation: discontinue Product X (−$500K/yr)", not "Product Profitability." Top-left zone (or Story Point 1) = the answer; everything after is evidence.
+- **Minto Pyramid:** answer on top → ~three **MECE** supporting points (mutually exclusive, collectively exhaustive) → evidence beneath each (the rule of three respects working memory). *In Tableau:* top = a BAN stating the conclusion; middle = three views each proving one non-overlapping point; bottom = drill sheets via actions. In a Story: point 1 = answer, 2–4 = the supports, 5 = next steps.
+- **Shneiderman's mantra:** "overview first, zoom and filter, then details-on-demand." *In Tableau:* overview = the KPI strip / summary; zoom & filter = filter/highlight/set actions + parameters; details-on-demand = viz-in-tooltip + navigation to a detail sheet.
+
+### Title and annotate for the takeaway (the highest-leverage move)
+
+- **Action/insight titles, not topic titles:** "West region drove 60% of Q3 growth" — not "Sales by Region." A dynamic (parameter-/calc-driven) title can restate the sentence as the user filters. *Caveat:* dynamic titles need a single-value field (parameter, FIXED LOD, or constant calc), and re-running Show Me clears title edits.
+- **Direct labeling beats a legend** — removes the eye's round-trip. Label line endpoints with a `LAST()=0`-filtered Label (or Label ▸ Marks to Label ▸ Line Ends) instead of a color legend.
+- **Reference lines/bands deliver context** — target, prior period, average, good/bad range (Analytics pane; how to add/read them is in [analytics-pane-reference](data/knowledge/tactics/viz/analytics-pane-reference.md)). A number means nothing without one.
+- **Callouts spotlight the climax** — right-click a mark ▸ Annotate ▸ Mark; put the insight *and the implied action* in the text. (Annotations are static, Desktop-formatted; web authoring is limited.)
+
+### Knaflic's narrative arc — and the "so what?" test
+
+Setup → rising tension → **climax (the insight / "so what?")** → resolution (the action). **For every chart, ask "so what?" — if there's no answer, cut it.** *In Tableau:* Story Points as the arc (overview → problem → climax view → recommendation); annotate the climax mark with the takeaway. Two hard lines worth keeping (the *why* is owned by [design-principles](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/design-principles.md)): **no pie/donut** beyond a 2–3-slice "roughly half" read; **"be gone, dual y-axis"** — instead direct-label the second series, use two charts sharing the X-axis, or index both to % change.
+
+### Cairo — truthfulness and tuning to the audience
+
+The five qualities: **truthful** (first, non-negotiable), functional, beautiful, insightful, enlightening. The **visualization wheel** (six trade-off dials: abstraction↔figuration, functionality↔decoration, density↔lightness, …) is the antidote to dogma — there's no single right position; you tune to the audience (experts tolerate dense/abstract; the public wants light/familiar). The net-new communication move from Cairo: **show uncertainty and provenance** — a reference band / confidence interval, sample size in the tooltip, and the data source + as-of date in a Text object, so the audience can trust the claim. (The encoding-integrity rules — zero baseline on bars, no causation from a trend line — are owned by [design-principles](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/design-principles.md) and the Statistical Traps in [chart-selection](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/chart-selection.md); apply them, don't re-derive.)
+
+### Fit the medium
+
+| Medium | Build | Tableau |
+|---|---|---|
+| Live presentation | one idea per beat; you narrate | Story Points; large fonts; minimal on-slide text; Presentation mode |
+| Emailed / static report | self-explanatory; no narrator | export to PDF; full annotations + action titles + source note; assume no interactivity |
+| Self-service dashboard | interactive, discoverable | Quick Filters + obvious instructions; filter/highlight actions; viz-in-tooltip |
+| Guided analytics (the sweet spot) | controlled path, still interactive | Story Points or nav buttons + Dynamic Zone Visibility to reveal the next layer on click |
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **Topic title instead of an action title** — "Sales by Region" leaves the takeaway for the reader to find; state it.
+- **Burying the conclusion** — making a decision-maker hunt for the answer instead of BLUF.
+- **Keeping a chart that has no "so what?"** — if it doesn't support the Big Idea, it's clutter.
+- **No narrative arc** — a pile of correct charts with no Big Idea, no lead answer, and no stated "so what?" (the exploratory-vs-explanatory decision that precedes this is owned by dashboard-archetypes).
+- **A naked KPI** — status by a bare red/green dot, no target/context, not colorblind-safe.
+- **Implying causation** from a scatter+trend without the caveat (Cairo's "suggesting patterns that aren't there").
+
+## Implementation
+
+Before building, answer Knaflic's context questions: who is the audience, what do you want them to know or do, and what's the **Big Idea** (one sentence)? Put that Big Idea in the title as a BLUF; structure the rest as a pyramid (answer → three MECE supports → evidence). Pick the chart for the message, declutter to one accent on the insight, annotate the climax with the takeaway and implied action, give every KPI context, keep it truthful (zero baseline, show uncertainty, cite source), and fit the medium. Then verify the only way that counts: show it to a representative viewer and confirm they reach the intended takeaway *and action* in seconds — if not, redesign, don't re-explain.
+
+## Related Knowledge
+
+- Sits above [Chart Type Selection](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/chart-selection.md) (which chart) and [Visual Design Principles](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/design-principles.md) (why an encoding reads) — this layer decides *what to say* before either.
+- Defers the exploratory-vs-explanatory decision, the 5-second test, and the three archetypes to [Dashboard Archetypes](data/knowledge/strategy/dashboard-design/dashboard-archetypes.md) — referenced here, not restated.
+- The slopegraph/BAN/bullet builds it recommends are in [Advanced Chart Build Recipes](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/advanced-chart-builds.md); the truthfulness checks pair with the Statistical Traps in chart-selection.
+
+## Source and Confidence
+
+- Source/evidence type: external reference (adapted with permission)
+- Source: adapted from `plugin-tableau-master` (`references/storytelling-with-data.md`) by Jon Plax, used with the author's permission; underlying frameworks are Knaflic (*Storytelling with Data*), Cairo (*The Functional Art* / *The Truthful Art* / *How Charts Lie*), the Minto Pyramid / BLUF tradition, and Shneiderman's mantra. Per the bot's guidance, NOT a full lift: the exploratory-vs-explanatory split, the 5-second test, and the three-archetype model were left to `dashboard-archetypes.md` (which already owns them); this carries the net-new narrative/structure/titling layer.

+# Visualization: Formatting & Professional Polish
+
+Reference guide for transforming functional Tableau visualizations into polished, presentation-ready output. Covers color strategy, typography, gridlines, axis formatting, mark styling, white space, and common mistakes.
+
+- Tags: formatting, typography, color, gridlines, polish
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: refine, format
+- In-scope reason: Guides the agent on how to apply professional formatting rules when refining a dashboard for presentation readiness, using workbook XML edits for gridlines, fonts, number formats, mark borders, and white space.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: formatting, typography, color, gridlines, polish, font-size, number-formatting, white-space, mark-borders, axis-formatting
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how to make my dashboard look professional", "remove gridlines Tableau", "font size recommendations", "number formatting with K and M", "dashboard looks cluttered", "presentation ready viz", "too many decimal places", "axis title best practices", "mark borders on stacked bars", "white space between charts"
+
+## When to Use This Module
+
+Apply these techniques when:
+- Building a dashboard intended for stakeholders, executives, or public audiences
+- Preparing a viz for Tableau Public, blog posts, or competition (Iron Viz, Viz of the Day)
+- The user asks to "clean up", "polish", "make it look professional", or "presentation-ready"
+- A viz is functionally correct but looks like a default Tableau output
+
+Do NOT over-format when:
+- The user is exploring data interactively (exploratory mode)
+- Speed matters more than aesthetics (ad-hoc analysis)
+- The viz is a throwaway prototype
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Start with the defaults, then subtract.** Remove gridlines, borders, and axis titles before adding decoration. Professional vizzes have less chrome, not more.
+2. **Every pixel should earn its place.** If an element does not help the viewer understand the data, remove it.
+3. **Consistency is more important than any single choice.** A mediocre font used consistently beats three "perfect" fonts mixed together.
+4. **Format numbers for the audience.** Executives want "1.2M", analysts want "1,234,567". Know your audience.
+5. **Test at the final display size.** A dashboard that looks great at 1920x1080 may be unreadable on a laptop or embedded in a portal at 800x600.
+
+## Color Palette Strategy
+
+### Palette Types
+
+| Type | Use When | Example |
+|------|----------|---------|
+| **Sequential** | Encoding a single continuous measure (low to high) | Revenue heat map, population density |
+| **Diverging** | Data has a meaningful midpoint (positive/negative, above/below target) | Profit margin (red-white-green), YoY change |
+| **Categorical** | Distinguishing discrete categories (max 7-8 colors) | Region, product category, segment |
+| **Single hue + gray** | Highlighting one category against others | "Our company" vs competitors |
+
+### When to Suppress Color Entirely
+
+- When the viz has only one category and color adds no information
+- When position already encodes the variable (a sorted bar chart does not need color to show rank)
+- When you want to use color sparingly to highlight a single outlier or annotation
+
+In these cases, use a single neutral color (`#4e79a7` or `#5b7fa5`) for all marks.
+
+### Professional Hex Palettes
+
+**Tableau 10 (default categorical -- already strong):**
+`#4e79a7` `#f28e2b` `#e15759` `#76b7b2` `#59a14f` `#edc948` `#b07aa1` `#ff9da7` `#9c755f` `#bab0ac`
+
+**Blue sequential (reports and finance):**
+`#deebf7` `#9ecae1` `#4292c6` `#2171b5` `#084594`
+
+**Red-Blue diverging (profit/loss, hot/cold):**
+`#b2182b` `#ef8a62` `#fddbc7` `#f7f7f7` `#d1e5f0` `#67a9cf` `#2166ac`
+
+**Corporate neutral (gray-forward, muted accents):**
+`#333333` `#666666` `#999999` `#cccccc` `#4e79a7` `#e15759`
+
+**Earth tones (editorial, infographic):**
+`#5b4e3c` `#8c7853` `#b8a88a` `#d4c5a9` `#3e6f5e` `#7bab8e`
+
+### Colorblind-Safe Options
+
+Tableau ships several colorblind-safe palettes. Prefer these when the audience is broad or unknown:
+
+- **Color Blind 10** -- built-in Tableau palette, 10 distinct hues optimized for deuteranopia/protanopia
+- **Tableau 10** -- already reasonable for most colorblind types
+- **Blue-Orange Diverging** -- safe diverging palette (avoid red-green diverging)
+
+Rules of thumb:
+- Never rely on red vs green as the only distinguishing signal
+- Pair color with shape, label, or position as a secondary encoding
+- Test with a simulator (e.g., Coblis or the built-in Tableau color blindness checker)
+
+### Workbook XML: Custom Color Palettes
+
+Custom palettes live in `<preferences> → <color-palette>`:
+
+```xml
+<preferences>
+  <color-palette name="Corporate Blues" type="ordered-sequential">
+    <color-palette-entry>#deebf7</color-palette-entry>
+    <color-palette-entry>#9ecae1</color-palette-entry>
+    <color-palette-entry>#4292c6</color-palette-entry>
+    <color-palette-entry>#2171b5</color-palette-entry>
+    <color-palette-entry>#084594</color-palette-entry>
+  </color-palette>
+</preferences>
+```
+
+Palette `type` values: `regular` (categorical), `ordered-sequential`, `ordered-diverging`.
+
+## Typography & Text
+
+### Recommended Font Sizes
+
+| Element | Size | Weight | Notes |
+|---------|------|--------|-------|
+| Dashboard title | 18-22pt | Bold | One per dashboard, top-left or centered |
+| Subtitle / description | 12-14pt | Regular | Brief context, data source, or date range |
+| Sheet title | 14-16pt | Bold | Only if the sheet is standalone on a dashboard |
+| Axis title | 10-12pt | Regular | Often better to remove and let the axis labels speak |
+| Axis tick labels | 9-11pt | Regular | Must be readable at final display size |
+| Mark labels | 8-10pt | Regular | Use sparingly -- only when the exact number matters |
+| Tooltip header | 11-13pt | Bold | First line in tooltip |
+| Tooltip body | 10-12pt | Regular | Keep to 3-4 lines max |
+| Annotations | 9-11pt | Italic or Regular | Callout text for specific marks |
+
+### Font Family Recommendations
+
+- **Tableau Book / Tableau Regular** -- the built-in default. Clean, purpose-built for data viz. Use this unless the organization mandates a brand font.
+- **Benton Sans** -- Tableau's alternate built-in. Slightly more modern feel.
+- **Trebuchet MS** -- good cross-platform fallback, similar to Tableau Book.
+- **Arial / Helvetica** -- safe corporate fallback. Slightly less character than Tableau fonts.
+
+Avoid: Times New Roman (too formal/academic), Comic Sans (obvious), Calibri (looks like an Excel export), decorative fonts.
+
+### Font Color
+
+- Primary text: `#333333` (not pure black -- too harsh against white)
+- Secondary text (axis labels, captions): `#666666`
+- De-emphasized text (source notes): `#999999`
+- Avoid colored text for data labels -- let the marks carry the color
+
+### Workbook XML: Style Rules for Fonts
+
+Worksheet-level formatting lives in `<style-rule>` elements under the worksheet's `<style>` element:
+
+```xml
+<style>
+  <style-rule element="worksheet-title">
+    <format attr="font-size"   value="18"/>
+    <format attr="font-weight" value="bold"/>
+    <format attr="color"       value="#333333"/>
+  </style-rule>
+</style>
+```
+
+Common `element` values for `style-rule`:
+- `worksheet` -- base worksheet formatting
+- `worksheet-title` -- the sheet title text
+- `axis-title` -- axis title text
+- `axis-labels` -- axis tick labels
+- `label` -- mark labels
+- `tooltip` -- tooltip text
+- `header` -- row/column header text
+- `cell` -- table/crosstab cell text
+
+## Gridlines, Axes & Borders
+
+### Gridlines: When to Remove
+
+| Chart Type | Gridlines? | Rationale |
+|------------|-----------|-----------|
+| Bar chart (horizontal) | Remove all | The bar length IS the value. Gridlines are redundant. |
+| Bar chart (vertical) | Remove vertical, keep light horizontal if bars are tall | Helps the eye track across tall bars |
+| Line chart | Keep light horizontal | Helps estimate values at time points |
+| Scatterplot | Keep both, light | Necessary for estimating position in 2D |
+| Map | Remove all | Grid on a map is visual noise |
+| Treemap | Remove all | Marks fill the space; grid is meaningless |
+| Pie / donut | Remove all | No axes to grid against |
+| Heatmap / highlight table | Remove all | Cell color carries all information |
+| Bullet / reference lines | Keep the reference line; remove grid | The reference line replaces the grid's function |
+
+### Gridline Styling When Kept
+
+- Color: `#e8e8e8` or `#ececec` (very light gray -- never black or dark gray)
+- Style: solid, 1px width
+- Zero line: slightly darker (`#cccccc`) or same as gridline -- avoid bold black zero lines
+
+### Workbook JSON: Gridline and Zero Line Formatting
+
+Gridline formatting is controlled via `style-rule` elements with `element="gridline"` or `element="zeroline"`:
+
+```xml
+<style-rule element="gridline">
+  <format attr="line-visibility" value="off"/>
+</style-rule>
+```
+
+To make gridlines light instead of removing:
+
+```xml
+<format attr="line-color" value="#e8e8e8"/>
+<format attr="line-size"  value="0"/>
+```
+
+### Axis Formatting
+
+**Remove unnecessary axis titles.** If the axis labels make the measure obvious (e.g., "Jan, Feb, Mar" on the x-axis), the title "Month" adds nothing. Same for "$0K, $50K, $100K" -- the dollar sign and K suffix already say "revenue".
+
+**Number formatting best practices:**
+
+| Range | Format | Example |
+|-------|--------|---------|
+| 0 - 999 | Whole number | `742` |
+| 1,000 - 999,999 | K suffix, 0-1 decimal | `1.2K`, `850K` |
+| 1,000,000 - 999,999,999 | M suffix, 1 decimal | `4.5M`, `120M` |
+| 1B+ | B suffix, 1-2 decimals | `2.3B` |
+| Percentages | 0-1 decimal, % symbol | `45.2%` (not `0.452`) |
+| Currency | $ prefix, K/M/B suffix | `$1.2M` |
+| Dates (axis) | Shortest unambiguous | `Jan '24` or `2024-Q1` |
+| Dates (tooltip) | Full readable | `January 15, 2024` |
+
+**Axis line visibility:** Remove the axis line itself (the solid line along the axis) when gridlines are present. It is redundant.
+
+### Workbook XML: Number Formatting
+
+Number formatting is set in the column definition within the datasource using the `format` attribute, or overridden at the worksheet level:
+
+```xml
+<column datatype="real" name="[Sales]" role="measure" type="quantitative">
+  <format attr="format" value="$#,##0.0K"/>
+</column>
+```
+
+## White Space & Layout
+
+### Dashboard Padding and Margins
+
+White space separates elements and lets the eye rest. Cramped dashboards look amateur.
+
+| Area | Recommended Padding |
+|------|-------------------|
+| Outer dashboard margin | 10-16px all sides |
+| Between adjacent sheets | 8-12px |
+| Between title and first sheet | 6-10px |
+| Inside filter containers | 4-8px inner padding |
+| Between legend and chart | 8px |
+
+### Layout Principles
+
+1. **Align to a grid.** Use Tableau's layout containers (horizontal/vertical) to enforce alignment. Misaligned elements are the single biggest tell of an amateur dashboard.
+2. **Left-align text.** Centered text is harder to scan, especially for titles and labels. Exception: a single dashboard title can be centered.
+3. **Group related elements.** Filters for a sheet should be visually proximate to that sheet. Do not scatter filters across the dashboard.
+4. **Visual hierarchy through size.** The most important chart gets the most space. Supporting charts and KPIs get less.
+5. **Fixed-size dashboards** (1200x800, 1366x768, or 1920x1080) give you more control than "Automatic" sizing, which can cause unpredictable reflows.
+
+### Workbook XML: Zone Padding
+
+Dashboard zone padding is set in `<zone-style> → <format>` elements:
+
+```xml
+<zone id="5" type-v2="layout-basic">
+  <zone-style>
+    <format attr="padding" value="12"/>
+    <format attr="margin"  value="8"/>
+  </zone-style>
+</zone>
+```
+
+## Mark Borders & Opacity
+
+### When to Add Mark Borders
+
+| Scenario | Border? | Settings |
+|----------|---------|----------|
+| Stacked bars | Yes | Thin white border (`#ffffff`, 1px) to separate segments |
+| Treemaps | Yes | White or light gray border to define cell boundaries |
+| Packed bubbles | Yes | Light border helps distinguish overlapping circles |
+| Simple bar chart | No | Clean edge is sufficient |
+| Line chart | No | Border on lines looks strange |
+| Scatterplot | Optional | Helps when points overlap; use 0.5px |
+| Area chart | Yes | Thin border on the top edge of the area to define the line |
+
+### Opacity Settings
+
+- **Default marks:** 100% opacity for bar charts, lines. 60-80% for scatter plots to reveal overlap.
+- **Highlighted state:** 100% opacity for the highlighted mark.
+- **Dimmed / context marks:** 15-25% opacity. This creates the "highlight" effect without removing data.
+- **Overlapping areas:** 40-60% opacity so underlying areas show through.
+
+### Workbook XML: Mark Styling
+
+Mark border and opacity are set via `<style-rule element="mark">` inside the pane's `<style>` element (see `workbook-encodings.md`):
+
+```xml
+<style>
+  <style-rule element="mark">
+    <format attr="has-stroke"        value="true"/>
+    <format attr="stroke-color"      value="#ffffff"/>
+    <format attr="mark-transparency" value="38"/>
+  </style-rule>
+</style>
+```
+
+`mark-transparency`: `"0"` = fully opaque; `"38"` ≈ 15%; `"128"` ≈ 50%; `"255"` = fully transparent.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+### 1. Rainbow Colors
+Using a full-spectrum rainbow palette for categorical data. The human eye does not perceive rainbow colors as ordered, so it fails as both sequential and categorical encoding. Use Tableau's built-in palettes instead.
+
+### 2. Too Many Decimal Places
+Showing `$1,234,567.89` on an axis when `$1.2M` communicates the same insight. Extra precision creates visual clutter and slows comprehension. Rule: use the fewest decimals that preserve the needed accuracy.
+
+### 3. Cluttered Gridlines
+Leaving default dark gridlines on bar charts. This is the most common "I didn't format this" signal. Remove them or make them very light.
+
+### 4. Inconsistent Formatting
+Using different fonts, colors, or number formats across sheets in the same dashboard. The viewer's brain spends effort parsing the format instead of the data. Define a style once and apply it everywhere.
+
+### 5. Meaningless Color
+Coloring bars by the same dimension already on the axis (e.g., bars sorted by category AND colored by category). This uses color to encode information that is already encoded by position. Remove the color or use it for a second variable.
+
+### 6. Axis Overload
+Showing both axis labels AND mark labels. Choose one. If the viewer needs exact numbers, use mark labels and remove the axis. If they need approximate comparison, keep the axis and remove mark labels.
+
+### 7. Default Tooltips
+Leaving the auto-generated tooltip with every field in the view. Tooltips should be curated: a clear title, the 2-3 most relevant values, and proper formatting. Remove "SUM(Sales)" and replace with "Total Sales: $1.2M".
+
+### 8. Gray Backgrounds
+Using gray worksheet or dashboard backgrounds. White (`#ffffff`) or very light off-white (`#fafafa`) provides maximum contrast and a clean look. Dark dashboards can work but require expertise with text contrast.
+
+### 9. Unaligned Elements
+Dashboard objects placed by eye instead of snapped to containers. Misalignment of even 2-3 pixels is subconsciously perceived as sloppy. Use layout containers and padding, not freeform placement.
+
+### 10. Chart Junk
+Adding data labels, gridlines, borders, legends, AND color encoding all at once. Each additional element competes for attention. The "Iron Viz look" comes from removing elements, not adding them.
+
+## The Gap: Functional vs. Iron Viz Quality
+
+| Dimension | Functional (Default) | Professional Polish |
+|-----------|---------------------|-------------------|
+| Color | Default Tableau 10, applied to everything | Restrained palette; color only where it adds meaning |
+| Gridlines | Default gray lines on every chart | Removed on most charts; very light where kept |
+| Fonts | Mixed sizes, default Tableau font at default sizes | Consistent hierarchy (title > subtitle > label) |
+| Numbers | Raw values with 2+ decimals | Abbreviated with appropriate suffixes |
+| White space | Sheets crammed edge-to-edge | Generous padding; visual breathing room |
+| Tooltips | Auto-generated field dumps | Curated 2-3 line tooltips with formatted values |
+| Axis titles | "SUM(Sales)" on every axis | Removed when redundant; renamed when kept |
+| Legends | Large, auto-placed | Compact, positioned near relevant chart |
+| Borders | Default cell borders visible | Removed or replaced with white space |
+| Titles | "Sheet 1", "Sheet 2" | Descriptive, insight-driven ("Revenue grew 23% in Q4") |
+
+The professional version is almost always achieved by **removing defaults** rather than adding decoration. Think of formatting as sculpture: start with the block and carve away.
+
+## Implementation in Tableau Desktop
+
+### Workflow for Polishing a Dashboard
+
+1. **Start with worksheet-list readback** to understand the current structure.
+2. **Use `get-workbook-xml`** to get the cached workbook XML file path (e.g. `cache/workbook-XXXX.xml`).
+3. **Modify the XML** using Python scripts (`xml.etree.ElementTree`) to apply formatting changes in bulk:
+   - Add/modify `<style-rule>` elements in each worksheet's `<style>` section
+   - Update `<format>` elements for number formatting in datasource columns
+   - Adjust `<zone-style>` → `<format>` elements for dashboard padding
+   - Set mark encoding attributes for borders and opacity
+4. **Apply with `apply-workbook`** passing the modified file path.
+5. **Verify visually** using screen capture or by asking the user to confirm.
+
+### Bulk Formatting Script Pattern
+
+```python
+import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
+
+ET.register_namespace('', '')  # preserve existing namespaces
+tree = ET.parse('cache/workbook-XXXX.xml')
+root = tree.getroot()
+
+# Find all worksheets and apply formatting
+for ws in root.iter('worksheet'):
+    style_node = ws.find('style')
+    if style_node is None:
+        style_node = ET.SubElement(ws, 'style')
+        ws.insert(0, style_node)  # style is typically the first child
+
+    # Remove gridlines
+    gridline_rule = ET.SubElement(style_node, 'style-rule')
+    gridline_rule.set('element', 'gridline')
+    fmt = ET.SubElement(gridline_rule, 'format')
+    fmt.set('attr', 'line-visibility')
+    fmt.set('value', 'off')
+
+    # Set title font
+    title_rule = ET.SubElement(style_node, 'style-rule')
+    title_rule.set('element', 'worksheet-title')
+    for attr, val in [('font-size', '16'), ('font-weight', 'bold'), ('color', '#333333')]:
+        fmt = ET.SubElement(title_rule, 'format')
+        fmt.set('attr', attr)

+
+### Key XML Nodes for Formatting
+
+| What to Format | Where in Workbook XML |
+|---------------|----------------------|
+| Gridlines | `worksheet > style > style-rule[element=gridline]` |
+| Zero lines | `worksheet > style > style-rule[element=zeroline]` |
+| Axis titles | `worksheet > style > style-rule[element=axis-title]` |
+| Axis labels | `worksheet > style > style-rule[element=axis-labels]` |
+| Mark labels | `worksheet > style > style-rule[element=label]` |
+| Sheet title | `worksheet > style > style-rule[element=worksheet-title]` |
+| Tooltip text | `worksheet > style > style-rule[element=tooltip]` |
+| Number format | `datasource > column > format[@attr=format]` |
+| Mark borders | `worksheet > pane > style > style-rule[element=mark] > format[@attr=has-stroke/stroke-color]` |
+| Mark opacity | `worksheet > pane > style > style-rule[element=mark] > format[@attr=mark-transparency]` |
+| Dashboard padding | `dashboard > zones > zone > zone-style > format[@attr=padding]` |
+| Custom palettes | `preferences > color-palette > color-palette-entry` |
+| Mark color (uniform) | Edit `<mark>` element's `<encodings>` in the pane: add `<color>` with a fixed hex value attribute, or remove field-driven color |
+| Mark color (by field) | `worksheet > pane > encodings > color` element with `column` attribute referencing CI |
+
+## Examples
+
+### Example 1: Clean Bar Chart Style Rules
+
+Remove gridlines, lighten axis labels, bold the title:
+
+```xml
+<style>
+  <style-rule element="gridline">
+    <format attr="line-visibility" value="off"/>
+  </style-rule>
+  <style-rule element="zeroline">
+    <format attr="line-visibility" value="off"/>
+  </style-rule>
+  <style-rule element="axis-labels">
+    <format attr="font-size" value="10"/>
+    <format attr="color"     value="#666666"/>
+  </style-rule>
+  <style-rule element="worksheet-title">
+    <format attr="font-size"   value="18"/>
+    <format attr="font-weight" value="bold"/>
+    <format attr="color"       value="#333333"/>
+  </style-rule>
+</style>
+```
+
+### Example 2: Scatterplot with Light Gridlines
+
+Keep gridlines but make them nearly invisible:
+
+```xml
+<style>
+  <style-rule element="gridline">
+    <format attr="line-color" value="#ececec"/>
+    <format attr="line-size"  value="0"/>
+  </style-rule>
+  <style-rule element="zeroline">
+    <format attr="line-color" value="#cccccc"/>
+    <format attr="line-size"  value="0"/>
+  </style-rule>
+</style>
+```
+
+### Example 3: Stacked Bar with White Borders
+
+Inside the pane's `<style>` element:
+
+```xml
+<style>
+  <style-rule element="mark">
+    <format attr="has-stroke"   value="true"/>
+    <format attr="stroke-color" value="#ffffff"/>
+  </style-rule>
+</style>
+```
+
+### Example 4: Dashboard Zone with Proper Padding
+
+```xml
+<zone-style>
+  <format attr="padding"      value="12"/>
+  <format attr="margin"       value="8"/>
+  <format attr="border-color" value="#ffffff"/>
+  <format attr="border-style" value="none"/>
+</zone-style>
+```

+# Viz Evaluation Framework: A Weighted Scorecard
+
+A reproducible, weighted rubric for *scoring* a finished visualization or dashboard — the quantitative complement to the pass/fail peer-review gate. Where the peer-review checklist asks "does this clear the bar to publish?", this asks "how good is it, and where specifically does it lose points?" Use it to give calibrated, defensible feedback instead of a bare "looks good" / "looks bad."
+
+Tags: evaluation, scoring, rubric, critique, design-quality, feedback, calibration
+
+**Related strategy:** the *why* behind the domains lives in `expertise://tableau/strategy/viz-design/design-principles` (perceptual rationale), and the applied rules in `expertise://tableau/strategy/viz-design/chart-selection`, `expertise://tableau/strategy/viz-design/color-strategy`, `expertise://tableau/strategy/viz-design/encoding-strategy`. The publish gate is `expertise://tableau/strategy/dashboard-design/dashboard-peer-review-checklist`.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: validate, refine
+- In-scope reason: When the agent is asked to critique or grade a viz/dashboard (its own output or a user's), this gives a structured, weighted scoring method so feedback is calibrated and actionable rather than vibes-based — and tells the agent where a design actually loses points.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: evaluation, scoring, rubric, critique, design-quality, feedback, calibration, genre, anti-anchoring, weighted-scorecard, viz-review
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "rate my dashboard", "score this viz", "critique this visualization", "how good is this chart", "give me feedback on my dashboard", "evaluate this design", "what's wrong with this viz", "grade my Tableau dashboard", "is this dashboard good", "review the design quality"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this when:
+- **A user asks you to rate, score, or critique** a viz or dashboard and wants more than a one-line reaction.
+- **You want to give structured design feedback** on your own generated output before handing it back.
+- **Two designs need comparing** on a consistent basis rather than by taste.
+- **A reviewer needs a defensible number** — "6.5/10, losing most points on Layout and Color" — instead of an unfalsifiable opinion.
+
+This is a *quality* assessment, not a *publish gate*. For the hard yes/no publish decision (classification labels, "All in list" filters, hardcoded dates, PII), run `dashboard-peer-review-checklist` — a design can score 8/10 and still be blocked from production by a governance failure.
+
+---
+
+## Step 0: Classify the Genre First (before scoring)
+
+A design must be scored against what it is *trying to be*. Identify the genre first — it changes how you weight and interpret every domain:
+
+| Genre | Purpose | How it shifts scoring |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Business / operational** | Monitor KPIs, drive decisions | Full weight on chart choice, clarity, and layout; expects KPIs and clear takeaways. |
+| **Analytical / exploratory** | Let an analyst dig | Don't penalize for lacking big headline KPIs; reward depth, interactivity, correct encodings. |
+| **Narrative** | Tell a sequenced story | Weight message and flow higher; a guided path matters more than density. |
+| **Editorial / infographic** | Persuade a broad public | Some "useful chart junk" and annotation is a feature, not a flaw; plain-language text weighs more. |
+| **Data art** | Aesthetic / provocative | Score honestly but note that conventional-clarity rules bend by design. |
+| **Scientific / technical** | Precision for experts | Reward exact encodings, uncertainty, dense reference; low on decoration. |
+
+**Rule:** never score an analytical exploration as if it were an exec dashboard, or vice versa. State the genre you scored against in the output — it makes the score falsifiable.
+
+---
+
+## The Weighted Scorecard
+
+Score each domain 0–10, multiply by its weight, sum for a weighted total. Weights sum to 100%.
+
+| Domain | Weight | What it measures |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Layout & Composition** | 25% | Reading order, alignment, whitespace, grouping, above-the-fold priority, density |
+| **Chart Choice** | 20% | Right chart for the question and data shape; correct encodings; no misleading forms |
+| **Audience Fit** | 15% | Matched to who reads it and how long they have; right filters and depth |
+| **Color** | 15% | Purposeful palette (sequential/diverging/categorical/semantic); CVD-safe; contrast |
+| **Message & Clarity** | 10% | One clear takeaway; titles/annotations state the "so what" |
+| **Text & Labels** | 5% | Concise, meaningful labels; formatted tooltips; no field-name dumps |
+| **Font & Typography** | 5% | Consistent, legible type hierarchy; not decorative for its own sake |
+
+**Weighted total = Σ (domain score × weight).** Round to one decimal using round-half-to-even (banker's rounding) so repeated evaluations don't drift upward.
+
+### Score tiers
+
+| Weighted total | Interpretation |
+|---|---|
+| **9.0–10.0** | Exemplary — publish/showcase quality |
+| **7.5–8.9** | Solid — competent and correct; minor polish left |
+| **6.0–7.4** | Workable — real gaps to fix before it's trusted |
+| **4.0–5.9** | Weak — a core domain (usually layout or chart choice) is failing |
+| **< 4.0** | Broken — rebuild, don't patch |
+
+### Anti-pattern penalties (applied after domain scoring)
+
+Deduct from the weighted total for hard failures, regardless of how the rest scored:
+- **Misleading encoding** (truncated bar axis, dual-axis with mismatched scales presented as comparable, 3-D perspective, area-encoded quantities): −1.0 to −2.0.
+- **Rainbow/decorative color where sequence or category has meaning**: −0.5.
+- **Unreadable density** (marks or text overlapping to illegibility at intended size): −0.5 to −1.0.
+- **No discernible takeaway** on a business/narrative genre: −0.5.
+
+### Bonus detection (rare, additive, cap +0.5 total)
+
+Award only for genuine excellence, not mere competence: exceptional accessibility (CVD-safe + high contrast + labeled), an innovative-yet-clear chart that beats the conventional choice, or annotations that materially raise comprehension.
+
+---
+
+## Calibration: score what's present, then find gaps
+
+The dominant failure mode in scoring is **negativity anchoring** — starting low and hunting for reasons to withhold points. Correct for it explicitly:
+
+- **Floor for competent execution.** A correct chart choice with solid, clean execution starts at **7.5**, not 5. You deduct *from* competence for real problems; you don't build *up* to it from zero.
+- **"Missed opportunity" ≠ "actual problem."** A design that could have added a reference line but reads correctly without one has a suggestion, not a deduction. Only deduct for things that harm comprehension, mislead, or fail the audience.
+- **Proportional deduction.** A single awkward label is a 0.5-point ding on Text (5% weight ≈ 0.025 off the total), not a whole-grade drop. Keep the magnitude of the deduction tied to the domain's weight.
+- **Score the genre, not your preference.** If you'd have made a different-but-equally-valid choice, that's not a deduction.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. **Classify the genre** (Step 0) and state it. This fixes how you'll interpret each domain.
+2. **Score each of the 7 domains 0–10**, writing one concrete sentence of evidence per domain ("Layout: 6 — the two KPI tiles and the trend line compete for the top-left; no clear reading order").
+3. **Start each domain from the competence floor** (7.5 for correct-and-clean) and deduct proportionally for real problems, not missed opportunities.
+4. **Compute the weighted total**, apply anti-pattern penalties and any (rare) bonus, and round half-to-even.
+5. **Report:** the number, the genre it was scored against, the 2–3 lowest-scoring domains with the specific fix each needs, and the single highest-leverage change. Lead with what's working — the floor-first discipline should show in the write-up, not just the math.
+6. **Separate quality from the gate.** If the design also has a publish-blocking governance issue, flag it separately and point to `dashboard-peer-review-checklist` — a high score does not clear the gate.
+
+### Worked example (confirmed pattern)
+
+A regional sales dashboard, classified **business/operational**:
+
+| Domain | Score | Weight | Contribution | Evidence |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| Layout | 6.0 | 25% | 1.50 | KPI strip and trend compete for the top; no F-pattern order |
+| Chart Choice | 8.0 | 20% | 1.60 | Bars for regions, line for trend — correct; one needless pie |
+| Audience Fit | 7.5 | 15% | 1.125 | Exec-appropriate KPIs, but 6 filters is too many for a 15-sec scan |
+| Color | 7.0 | 15% | 1.05 | Sequential ramp is fine; one accent color used decoratively |
+| Message | 8.0 | 10% | 0.80 | Title states the takeaway clearly |
+| Text | 8.0 | 5% | 0.40 | Tooltips formatted with numerator/denominator |
+| Font | 8.0 | 5% | 0.40 | Consistent hierarchy |
+
+Weighted subtotal = **6.875**. Anti-pattern penalty: the lone pie is not misleading, just suboptimal → no penalty (missed opportunity, not a problem). Rounded: **6.9/10**. Highest-leverage fix: **Layout** — establish a single reading order and demote the KPI strip's competition, which alone would lift the largest-weighted domain.
+
+**What does NOT work:**
+- **Scoring without declaring the genre** — an analytical viz graded as an exec dashboard reads as "too dense / no KPIs," which is a false negative. Always state the genre.
+- **Averaging the 7 domains unweighted** — Layout (25%) and Chart Choice (20%) carry nearly half the score; a flat average lets a great font rescue a broken layout. Always apply the weights.
+- **Deducting for taste** — "I'd have used a different palette" is not a defect. Deduct only for comprehension harm, misleading encodings, or audience mismatch.
+- **Treating the score as a publish decision** — quality and the governance gate are orthogonal. Report both, separately.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Genre before number.** The single most common calibration error is scoring against the wrong intent.
+- **Floor-first, deduct down.** Competent work starts at 7.5; you take points off for real problems, you don't grant them for the absence of problems.
+- **Weight-proportional deductions.** A Text nit and a Layout failure are not the same size — tie the ding to the domain weight.
+- **Evidence per domain.** Every score needs one concrete, quotable observation, or it's not defensible.
+- **Lead with strengths, then the highest-leverage fix.** A critique that only lists faults gets ignored; name the one change that moves the biggest-weighted domain.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Negativity anchoring** — starting low and looking for reasons to raise. Start from the competence floor and deduct for actual harm.
+2. **Unweighted averaging** — treating a 5%-weight font issue as equal to a 25%-weight layout failure.
+3. **Confusing "missed opportunity" with "problem"** — deducting for a reference line that wasn't added, even though the viz reads correctly without it.
+4. **Genre blindness** — penalizing an exploratory analytical dashboard for lacking headline KPIs.
+5. **Conflating score with gate** — reporting a high score as if it means "safe to publish" when a classification/PII/filter failure is present.

+# Worksheets: Shelf Configuration & Trellis Charts
+
+Strategy guide for structuring a Tableau worksheet — *how* to lay out rows/columns for the question, when a trellis beats a filtered single view, sort choices, and when to hide a sheet.
+
+Tags: worksheets, shelves, trellis, small-multiples, sorting
+
+**Tactics companion:** `expertise://tableau/tactics/viz/worksheets` — the XML/authoring mechanics (worksheet + window structure, partition-calc XML) for this topic.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude choose the right rows/columns shelf structure for a user's analytical question, including trellis chart layouts and nested-dimension configurations.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: worksheets, shelves, trellis, small-multiples, sorting, rows-columns, hiding-sheets, index-partition
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how to configure Rows and Columns shelf", "trellis chart in Tableau", "small multiples layout", "how to sort dimension by measure", "hiding worksheets used in dashboard", "INDEX partition calc for grid", "discrete vs continuous on shelf", "nested dimensions on Rows", "Measure Names and Measure Values", "when to use a trellis vs filter", "add field to shelf without template", "manual worksheet build"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+- **Explaining rows/columns shelf behavior** — discrete vs. continuous fields, multiple fields, nesting
+- **Setting up a trellis (small-multiples) chart** using INDEX()-based partition calcs
+- **Hiding a worksheet** that is used inside a dashboard but shouldn't appear as a tab
+- **Configuring sort options** for dimensions on shelves
+
+---
+
+## Rows and Columns Shelves
+
+The Rows and Columns shelves are the primary way to structure a view in Tableau.
+
+### What fields do on each shelf
+
+| Shelf | Discrete field (blue) | Continuous field (green) |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Columns** | Creates column headers (category axis) | Creates a horizontal continuous axis |
+| **Rows** | Creates row headers (category axis) | Creates a vertical continuous axis |
+
+Placing a dimension on Rows creates one row per member. Placing a measure on Rows creates a continuous vertical axis. Mixing the two (dimension on Rows, measure on Rows) creates a trellis-style layout with separate panes per dimension member.
+
+### Multiple fields on a shelf
+
+Dragging multiple fields onto the same shelf **nests** them:
+- Two dimensions on Rows: outer dimension creates major row groups; inner dimension creates sub-rows within each group
+- A dimension and a measure on Rows (using `*` to separate them in Tableau's notation): creates a split layout where each dimension member gets its own pane with the measure axis
+
+### Measure Names and Measure Values
+
+Dragging multiple measures onto a shelf automatically invokes Measure Names (a pseudo-dimension) and Measure Values (a pseudo-measure). This creates a multi-measure view where each measure is a row or column.
+
+To control which measures appear: drag Measure Names to the Filters shelf → select which measures to include.
+
+---
+
+## Sorting
+
+### Quick Sort
+
+Click the Sort button on a field pill that's on a shelf to cycle through: original order → sort ascending → sort descending → original order.
+
+### Custom Sort
+
+Right-click a dimension on the Rows or Columns shelf → **Sort** → choose the sort method:
+- **Data source order** — original order from the database
+- **Alphabetic** — A-Z or Z-A
+- **Field** — sort by another field's aggregation (e.g., sort Sub-Category by SUM(Sales) descending)
+- **Manual** — drag members into a custom order
+
+Sort by a measure is the most useful for analytical charts — it immediately shows which dimensions rank highest/lowest.
+
+### Computed Sort (Nested)
+
+When multiple dimensions are nested on a shelf, sorting the inner dimension sorts it within each outer dimension group. This is often the desired behavior — top sub-categories per region, not top sub-categories globally.
+
+---
+
+## Hiding Worksheets (Used in Dashboards)
+
+When a worksheet is used inside a dashboard, you may want to hide its tab so users don't navigate to the raw sheet.
+
+**How to hide:** right-click the sheet tab → **Hide Sheet**.
+
+**Conditions for hiding:**
+- The sheet must be used in at least one dashboard
+- Standalone sheets that aren't on any dashboard cannot be hidden
+- Hidden sheets remain fully functional inside dashboards
+
+**To show a hidden sheet again:** on the dashboard, right-click the floating/tiled view that uses that sheet → **Unhide Sheet**, or go to the Sheet menu → Unhide Sheets.
+
+---
+
+## Row Height and Column Width
+
+**Adjust manually:** hover over the row or column header dividers until the resize cursor appears, then drag.
+
+**Set precisely:** right-click a cell → **Row Height** or **Column Width** → enter a pixel value.
+
+Consistent row height is especially important for KPI sparkline tables and Gantt charts, where uniform row sizes create a clean grid.
+
+---
+
+## Trellis / Small-Multiples Chart
+
+A trellis creates a grid of panels — one per combination of dimension members — where each panel shares the same axes. This is useful for comparing patterns across many categories simultaneously.
+
+### How to build a trellis
+
+**Simple trellis (one dimension on Columns, one on Rows):**
+1. Place the panel dimension (e.g., Region) on Columns and another dimension on Rows
+2. Place the measure on the view — Tableau automatically creates a separate panel per Region
+3. Right-click the axis → **Edit Axis** → check **Independent axis ranges for each row or column** if you want each panel to have its own scale (shows patterns within each panel rather than magnitude comparison across panels)
+
+**INDEX()-based trellis (for more control):**
+Use when you want an N×M grid with a specific number of columns:
+
+1. Create two calculated fields:
+   - `Column Position`: `INT((INDEX() - 1) / [Columns per Row])` — which column (0-based)
+   - `Row Position`: `(INDEX() - 1) % [Columns per Row]` — which row within a column
+
+   Where `[Columns per Row]` is a parameter (e.g., 3 for a 3-column grid).
+
+2. Place these as discrete (blue) pills on Rows and Columns respectively
+3. Place the dimension to be faceted on Label/Detail
+4. Set Compute Using on both INDEX() calcs to the dimension being faceted (right-click → Edit Table Calculation → Specific Dimensions)
+
+**Hiding the partition axis labels:** the row/column position numbers (0, 1, 2…) appear on the axis by default. Format → Field Labels → Rows/Columns → hide them, or format the header to white text.
+
+### When to use a trellis vs. a filtered single view
+
+| Trellis | Single view with filter |
+|---|---|
+| User needs to compare across all panels simultaneously | User needs to focus on one panel at a time |
+| Fewer than ~12 panels (more becomes unreadable) | Any number of members |
+| Pattern comparison matters more than individual magnitude | Individual values matter |
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Keep the worksheet title meaningful.** The default "Sheet 1" title is useless on a dashboard. Either show a descriptive title (Worksheet → Show Title, then double-click to edit) or hide the title and use a Text object on the dashboard instead.
+- **Use discrete dimensions on Rows/Columns for categorical structure.** Continuous measures on Rows/Columns create axes — combine them thoughtfully to avoid creating unintended trellis layouts.
+- **Sort dimensions by their measure.** A bar chart sorted by SUM(Sales) descending communicates the ranking immediately. Default alphabetical sort forces the reader to search for patterns.
+- **For trellis charts, use independent axis ranges only for pattern comparison.** Synchronize axes (the default) when absolute magnitude comparison across panels matters.
+- **Hide source sheets on dashboards.** Showing raw data sheets alongside the dashboard breaks the narrative and confuses users about which view to use.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **A field on the wrong shelf causing an unexpected trellis.** Dragging a measure to Rows when a dimension is already on Rows creates a split trellis layout. If this is accidental, right-click the measure and move it to a different shelf.
+2. **Sort reverting after a filter is applied.** If a computed sort (sort by field) references a measure filtered out by a quick filter, the sort may revert to original order. Use a context filter instead, or sort by a different measure.
+3. **Trellis panels not showing all dimension members.** If INDEX() is not set to Compute Using the facet dimension, all data collapses into one panel. Right-click each INDEX() calc → Edit Table Calculation → set Specific Dimensions to the facet field.
+4. **Hiding a standalone sheet accidentally.** Sheets can only be hidden if they're on a dashboard. If the Hide Sheet option is grayed out, the sheet needs to be added to a dashboard first.
+5. **Row heights resetting after sorting.** Custom row heights can reset when the view is sorted differently. Set row height after the final sort is in place.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+Decide structure before formatting: choose what goes on Rows vs Columns for the question, decide trellis vs filtered single view, set the sort that surfaces the ranking, then hide source sheets that only feed a dashboard. For the worksheet + window XML these decisions produce, see the tactics companion above.

+# Tableau Automation & Programmatic Access
+
+Guide to choosing the right tool for automating Tableau workflows and accessing workbook data programmatically — when to reach for the Tableau Server REST API, the Tableau Server Client (TSC), tabcmd, Tableau Prep, or direct TWB file manipulation.
+
+Tags: automation, rest-api, tabcmd, prep, twb-xml
+
+**Tactics companion:** `expertise://tableau/tactics/workflow/python-helpers` — the XML/authoring mechanics for this topic. (Ready-to-use ElementTree templates for reading and editing TWB XML live there; this file is about which tool to pick, not the code.)
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: safely decline
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude advise the user on which Tableau automation tool to use for publishing, refreshing, or bulk changes, which supports authoring even though the automation task itself is outside dashboard construction.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: automation, rest-api, tabcmd, prep, twb-xml, tsc, python, tableau-server-client, extract-refresh, bulk-changes
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how to automate Tableau publishing", "REST API vs tabcmd", "Python library for Tableau", "bulk workbook changes", "scheduled extract refresh", "TWB file editing", "Tableau Prep vs Desktop", "programmatic access to workbook metadata", "Personal Access Token authentication", "extract calculated fields from TWB"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+- **A customer asks about automating workbook publishing or refresh**
+- **Explaining how to extract workbook metadata programmatically** (field lists, datasource names)
+- **Discussing TWB/TWBX file manipulation** for bulk changes across many workbooks
+- **Recommending tools for scheduled extract refreshes or workbook deployments**
+
+---
+
+## Automation Tool Overview
+
+| Tool | What it does | Best for |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Tableau Server REST API** | Publish, download, query, refresh via HTTP | Custom integrations, CI/CD pipelines |
+| **Tableau Server Client (TSC)** | Python library wrapping the REST API | Python-based automation scripts |
+| **tabcmd** | Command-line tool for common Server tasks | Shell scripts, scheduled tasks, simple CI |
+| **Tableau Prep** | ETL/data preparation with scheduled flows | Data transformation before it reaches Tableau |
+| **TWB XML manipulation** | Direct XML editing for bulk workbook changes | Bulk field renames, calc updates across many workbooks |
+
+---
+
+## Tableau Server Client (TSC) — Python
+
+The `tableauserverclient` package (`pip install tableauserverclient`) is the official Python library for Tableau Server and Tableau Cloud. **Pick TSC** whenever the automation needs conditional logic, error handling, or to loop across many workbooks — listing, publishing, refreshing extracts, and downloading workbooks are all first-class operations. It wraps the REST API in idiomatic Python, so reach for it before hand-rolling raw HTTP calls.
+
+**Authenticate with Personal Access Tokens, not username/password.** PATs are more secure for automated scripts, survive password changes, and can be scoped to specific permissions — this is the single most important security decision in any Tableau automation. Reserve username/password auth for interactive, throwaway sessions.
+
+For the runnable ElementTree templates that read and edit a workbook's TWB XML (the companion to TSC's server-side operations), see `expertise://tableau/tactics/workflow/python-helpers`.
+
+---
+
+## tabcmd
+
+tabcmd is a command-line utility included with Tableau Server. Useful for quick operations in shell scripts.
+
+**Common commands:**
+
+```bash
+# Sign in
+tabcmd login -s https://server.example.com -u username -p password
+
+# Publish a workbook
+tabcmd publish "Sales Dashboard.twbx" --project "Marketing" --overwrite
+
+# Trigger a data source refresh
+tabcmd refreshextracts --datasource "Sales Data"
+
+# Export a view to PDF
+tabcmd export "Sales Dashboard/Revenue Trend" --pdf -f output.pdf
+
+# Sign out
+tabcmd logout
+```
+
+tabcmd is simpler than the REST API for one-off operations but has less flexibility. For anything that requires conditional logic or looping across many workbooks, prefer the TSC Python library.
+
+---
+
+## TWB XML Manipulation (Bulk Workbook Changes)
+
+A `.twb` file is XML — it can be parsed and modified with any XML library. **Choose direct XML manipulation** for bulk changes that the REST API can't express: renaming a field, updating a datasource connection string, or adding a calculated field across many workbooks at once. For one or two workbooks, editing in Desktop is safer; the XML path pays off at scale.
+
+For the XML/authoring mechanics — runnable ElementTree templates for reading datasources, calculated fields, and worksheet names — see `expertise://tableau/tactics/workflow/python-helpers`.
+
+**Nodes that are safe to modify:**
+- Calculated field formulas (`calculation` → `formula` attribute)
+- Column captions (`column` → `caption` attribute)
+- Datasource caption / display name
+- Dashboard size settings
+
+**Nodes never to modify:**
+- `connection` and `named-connections` — live database/file connection strings
+- `document-format-change-manifest` — version compatibility metadata
+- `repository-location` — server path
+
+**After modifying, always open in Tableau Desktop to verify** before deploying to production or publishing to the server.
+
+---
+
+## Tableau Prep
+
+Tableau Prep Builder is a separate tool for ETL — cleaning, reshaping, and combining data before it's connected to Tableau Desktop.
+
+**When to use Prep instead of Tableau Desktop:**
+- Pivot wide data to long (many date columns → one date row per record)
+- Union multiple files or sheets
+- Fuzzy matching / data cleaning at scale
+- Scheduled recurring data transformations
+
+**Prep flows run on Tableau Server/Cloud** using Prep Conductor — create the flow in Prep Builder, publish it to the server, then schedule it. The output is typically a Tableau extract (.hyper) that dashboards connect to.
+
+---
+
+## Inspecting Workbook Fields Without Opening Desktop
+
+When a customer needs a list of all calculated fields, field names, or datasource connections from a workbook file, you can extract that from the TWB XML directly — no need to open Tableau Desktop. This is the right approach for auditing a workbook for unused calculated fields, complex formulas, or datasource connection details, and it handles both `.twb` and (after unzipping) `.twbx`.
+
+For the read-only inspection template — including the helper that transparently extracts the `.twb` from a `.twbx` and the field/datasource enumeration code — see `expertise://tableau/tactics/workflow/python-helpers`.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Use Personal Access Tokens, not username/password, for automated scripts.** PATs survive password changes and can be scoped to specific permissions.
+- **Test TWB XML modifications on a copy, not the original.** Always work on a copy and verify in Tableau Desktop before deploying.
+- **Use the TSC library for anything beyond simple publish/refresh.** tabcmd is great for one-liners; TSC is necessary for conditional logic, error handling, or looping across many workbooks.
+- **Prefer Prep for data transformation, Tableau Desktop for analysis.** Putting complex data cleaning in a Prep flow keeps the Tableau datasource simpler and easier to maintain.
+- **When modifying TWB XML, never change the datasource ID** (`name` attribute on `<datasource>`, e.g., `federated.0abc123`). All worksheet references are keyed to this ID — changing it breaks every sheet.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Calling the REST API with an expired auth token.** Auth tokens expire (default 240 minutes). Implement token refresh in long-running scripts, or use PATs which have configurable expiry.
+2. **Publishing a workbook without the correct project ID.** The project ID is a GUID — fetch it from the server first rather than hardcoding it. Project names are unique but names can change; GUIDs don't.
+3. **TWB XML modification breaking field references.** If you rename a datasource field in the XML (`column name` attribute), every worksheet's column-instance reference using that field name breaks silently. Change the `caption` only, not the `name`.
+4. **Forgetting to handle `.twbx` vs. `.twb`.** Many workbooks in production are `.twbx` — automation scripts need to handle both formats, extracting the XML from the zip in the `.twbx` case.
+5. **Running Prep flows on a schedule without monitoring.** Prep Conductor flow failures can silently stale a dashboard's data. Set up email notifications for flow failures in the server settings.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+Start from the tool-selection table: REST API or TSC for programmatic Server operations, tabcmd for shell one-liners, Prep for ETL, direct TWB XML editing for bulk file changes the API can't express. Authenticate automation with PATs, test XML edits on a copy, and verify the result in Tableau Desktop before deploying. When the task needs the actual code, defer to `expertise://tableau/tactics/workflow/python-helpers` for the ElementTree templates.

+# Diagnostic View Loop: Test Data Assumptions Before Committing to a Viz
+
+SE knowledge entry for field-observed authoring behavior that should guide BI agents when a user challenges a recommendation or the agent realizes it is relying on an untested data assumption.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: validate, create, improve
+- In-scope reason: Helps an agent turn a challenged recommendation or implicit assumption into a small, evidence-backed diagnostic view before committing to a final visualization design.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: diagnostic view, assumption testing, hypothesis check, data validation, exploratory analysis, evidence-backed recommendation, throwaway sheet, iterative authoring, replace weak viz, user challenge
+- Expected agent behavior: When the user questions the agent's recommendation or the agent notices it has made an implicit assumption, the agent should acknowledge the assumption, build the smallest diagnostic view that can test it against the real data, state the result, and use that evidence to improve or replace the proposed visualization.
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "why did you choose that chart", "are you assuming this field behaves that way", "prove that recommendation", "check the data before building", "test your assumption", "that chart does not seem right", "can you verify this pattern", "build a diagnostic view first", "replace this weak viz with a better one"
+- Safe refusal condition: Do not present the diagnostic finding as proof if the available data cannot test the hypothesis, the sample is too small, or the relevant fields are missing; explain the limitation and ask whether to proceed with a caveated design or pause for better data.
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when a user challenges the agent's recommendation, asks why the agent chose a chart or analytic approach, or points out that the recommendation may be based on an assumption about the data.
+
+Also use it when the agent catches itself relying on an unverified assumption, such as "the categories are balanced enough for this comparison," "this measure varies by segment," "the relationship is roughly linear," "the top performers are stable over time," or "this existing view is the best way to show the pattern."
+
+This is not a replacement for normal discovery-first authoring. It is a short loop inside an authoring session: acknowledge the uncertainty, create a small diagnostic view, read the data signal, then either proceed, revise, or replace the weaker visualization.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Acknowledge the assumption plainly. If the user questions the recommendation, do not defend the original answer reflexively. Say what assumption the recommendation depended on and that you will test it against the actual data.
+- Build the smallest diagnostic view that can answer the question. Prefer a throwaway worksheet, table, histogram, scatterplot, box plot, small multiple, or simple ranked bar over a polished dashboard.
+- Name the diagnostic view clearly while working, using labels such as `DIAGNOSTIC - Segment Distribution` or `DIAGNOSTIC - Trend by Region`, so it is not mistaken for final deliverable content.
+- Test one hypothesis at a time. The view should answer a specific question: "Is the distribution skewed?", "Does the relationship hold within each segment?", "Are the top categories stable?", or "Is this aggregate hiding subgroup differences?"
+- Read the result back before building. State what the diagnostic view proved, disproved, or failed to determine. Then connect that result to the design decision.
+- Use the diagnostic finding to improve the workbook, not just to justify the original recommendation. If the evidence shows the original view is weaker, replace it with the better view.
+- Remove, hide, or clearly separate diagnostic sheets before final delivery unless the user wants to keep them as an audit trail or exploratory appendix.
+- Keep the loop short. A diagnostic view is a decision aid, not a second dashboard project.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Say no to treating a diagnostic view as conclusive when the data cannot support the test.
+
+Recommended wording:
+
+> I can test that assumption with a quick diagnostic view, but the current data does not contain the field or grain needed to prove it. I can either build a caveated version using the closest available evidence, or we can pause until the right data is available.
+
+Offer this instead:
+
+- A caveated recommendation that states the untested assumption.
+- A narrower diagnostic test using fields that do exist.
+- A request for the missing field, grain, or time period needed to verify the hypothesis.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- Defending the first recommendation instead of testing it. A user challenge is often a signal that the agent made an implicit assumption the user can see.
+- Building a polished replacement before diagnosing the issue. Without the diagnostic step, the agent may simply swap one unsupported design for another.
+- Making the diagnostic view too broad. A throwaway sheet should answer one question quickly, not explore every possible slice.
+- Forgetting to use the result. The loop is only valuable if the diagnostic finding changes or confirms the final design decision.
+- Leaving diagnostic sheets in the final workbook without explanation. They can confuse users if they look like unfinished deliverables.
+- Treating exploratory findings as final proof. A diagnostic view can validate whether a design is appropriate for the current workbook, but it does not automatically establish causality or long-term stability.
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. **Notice the challenge or assumption.** Trigger the loop when the user questions a recommendation, when the agent says or implies "this probably," or when the proposed design depends on a data shape that has not been checked.
+2. **State the hypothesis.** Convert the assumption into a testable sentence: "I assumed sales concentration is high enough that a Top-N view will be useful."
+3. **Create a small diagnostic view.** Use the simplest worksheet or exploratory view that can test the hypothesis against the actual data.
+4. **Read the result.** Summarize what the view shows in plain language, including uncertainty or limitations.
+5. **Decide.** Keep the original design if the hypothesis holds, revise it if the evidence points elsewhere, or pause if the hypothesis cannot be tested.
+6. **Replace weak output when needed.** If an existing visualization is less informative than the evidence-backed alternative, replace it rather than leaving both as competing answers.
+7. **Clean up.** Remove, hide, or label the diagnostic sheet according to whether the user wants an audit trail.
+
+### Worked Example
+
+**Hypothesis:** The agent recommends a ranked bar chart of product categories because it assumes a few categories dominate revenue. The user asks, "Are you sure this should be a Top-N chart? What if revenue is evenly spread?"
+
+**Diagnostic sheet:** The agent creates `DIAGNOSTIC - Revenue Concentration`, a simple sorted bar chart of revenue by product category with percent of total in the label or tooltip. It checks whether the top categories account for a large share of total revenue and whether there is a meaningful drop-off.
+
+**Decision:** The diagnostic view shows revenue is not concentrated: the top category is only slightly above the next several categories, and the long tail still contributes materially. The agent states that the Top-N assumption was weak, then replaces the original Top-N chart with a distribution-focused view, such as a full sorted bar chart grouped by category family or a treemap only if the user needs part-to-whole scanning. The final explanation says the design changed because the real data showed broad contribution rather than a dominant few categories.

+# Tableau Is the Analytics Layer, Not the Fix: The Interim Report Pattern
+
+SE knowledge entry for field expertise that may later be reviewed for promotion into the Tableau authoring expertise layer.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: govern, safely decline
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude and SEs handle requests to replicate complex upstream logic inside Tableau — explaining why Tableau is the wrong place for the fix, establishing guardrails when a short-term interim report is appropriate, and declining when the risk of bad data outweighs the benefit of short-term delivery.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: shadow logic, system of record, interim report, exception report, monitoring report, technical debt, report portfolio, report purposing, upstream fix, data warehouse, guardrails, business accountability, stakeholder management, report governance
+- Expected agent behavior: When a user asks Claude to build complex logic in Tableau that should live upstream in the data warehouse or application, Claude should explain Tableau's role as an analytics layer, assess whether an interim report with guardrails is appropriate, and decline when the logic cannot be faithfully replicated or when customer harm risk is present.
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "when is Tableau the wrong tool", "should I build this in Tableau or fix it upstream", "am I building a workaround", "this belongs in the data warehouse not a dashboard", "replicating business logic in Tableau", "interim report vs system of record", "should this logic live upstream", "Tableau as a band-aid for a data problem"
+- Safe refusal condition: When the requested logic cannot be accurately replicated in Tableau, or when the use case involves regulatory compliance where bad data could cause customer harm (missed closings, incorrect fees, bad funding data).
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when a business user asks for a Tableau dashboard that replicates complex logic, calculations, or processing that belongs upstream in a data warehouse, application, or system of record — and especially when the user's underlying need is a fix that the data or application team has not yet applied.
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Business users who need a near-term answer while an upstream fix is in queue
+- Teams that have inherited dashboards with embedded workaround logic and no clear expiration
+- Any organization where a reporting or analytics team sits separately from the application and data warehousing teams
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Frame Tableau as the analytics layer and companion to the system of record, not a substitute for it. The fix belongs upstream; Tableau can surface the data but cannot own the data.
+- When short-term delivery is appropriate, establish an interim report with explicit guardrails before building anything:
+  - Coordinate a realistic timeframe with all three parties: the data warehouse or application team, the analytics/dashboard team, and the business user.
+  - Attach named stakeholders from each team who are accountable for the upstream fix and for the report's continued relevance.
+  - Add a sub-header to the dashboard as part of the report purpose section. State the purpose clearly and indicate the expected fix timeframe in broad terms — do not promise a hard deadline.
+  - Build in a monitoring routine: 30-day, quarterly, or semi-annual check-ins depending on how long the fix is expected to take.
+- At each check-in, assess five questions: Does the business purpose of this report still align with a real need? Is Tableau still the right place to surface it? Are the named stakeholders still the correct owners? Does the current access list reflect who should actually be able to see this data? Is anyone actively using the report at the intended cadence — and has the upstream fix already been applied without the reporting team being notified?
+- Communicate clearly that the interim report is a short-term inspection and accountability tool, not a permanent solution. The goal is to give the business a window into the problem while the real fix is applied, not to make the workaround permanent.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Say no to building even an interim report when:
+
+- The upstream logic is too complex to replicate accurately in Tableau — particularly complex SQL, multi-system data pulls, or logic that would produce unreliable results if approximated.
+- The use case involves regulatory or compliance workflows where a bad data output could cause customer harm: missed loan closings, incorrect fees, bad funding data, or regulatory reporting errors. In these cases, giving bad data is worse than giving no data.
+- The requested data scope cannot be made analytically valid because underlying systems changed during the requested period. For example, a user asks for 5 years of loan data but the origination system was replaced 2 years ago — merging data across the old and new system produces a dataset that looks continuous but is not comparable across the boundary. Presenting it as continuous creates misleading analysis. In these cases, confirm the meaningful analysis window with the data warehouse or application team before building anything.
+- The data requested exposes PII or creates risk that the output could be used for customer harm — for example, surfacing fields that enable identity theft, fraud, fair lending violations, or other misuse by bad actors. A single field may appear safe, but the combination of fields in a dashboard can create exposure that is not visible until the full dataset is assembled. In these cases, do not build the report. See also: [PII and Fair Lending Field Exclusions](data/knowledge/tactics/governance/pii-and-fair-lending-exclusions.md).
+
+Recommended wording:
+
+> Tableau is your analytics layer — it can show you what's in your data, but it can't own the fix. What you're describing needs to be corrected upstream in the data warehouse or application, and I want to make sure we don't build something here that gives you a false sense that the problem is solved.
+>
+> If the upstream team has a fix in queue, I can help you build a short-term monitoring report with a clear purpose statement and a check-in schedule — so the business has visibility while the real fix lands. But if the logic is too complex to replicate safely, or if there's any risk of surfacing incorrect data in a regulated process, I'd recommend we hold off and support the upstream ticket directly instead.
+
+Offer this instead:
+
+- An interim monitoring report with a defined timeframe, named stakeholders, a report purpose sub-header, and a check-in routine — when the logic can be faithfully replicated and the risk is low.
+- Direct support for the upstream fix request (helping document requirements, escalating the ticket priority) when an interim report is not appropriate.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- Building the shadow logic without guardrails and treating it as a normal dashboard. Without a defined purpose, timeframe, stakeholders, and monitoring routine, the report will outlive its reason for existing and become permanent technical debt.
+- Inheriting workaround dashboards without auditing them. Reports built as temporary fixes frequently survive well past the upstream fix being applied — nobody checks, and the Tableau dashboard becomes the de facto system of record by default.
+- Putting a hard deadline in the report sub-header. Promising "fix expected by Q3" when the timeline is uncertain creates expectation risk. Use broad language: "fix in progress as of this quarter" or "expected to be resolved in the next 6–12 months."
+- Taking on regulatory or compliance workarounds. Even with good intentions, surfacing approximated data in a regulated workflow creates customer harm risk that the analytics team should not own.
+- Skipping the monitoring routine. A report with a purpose statement and stakeholders but no check-in cadence will drift. Active portfolio monitoring — confirming the upstream fix has landed and decommissioning the interim report — is what keeps the methodology honest.
+- Not reviewing access during check-ins. Over time, the people who originally needed the interim report change roles, leave the team, or no longer require the data. Without an explicit access review at each check-in, users who should no longer see the data retain access by default.
+- Agreeing to pull broad historical data without validating whether system changes make the full date range analytically meaningful. If the underlying system was replaced or significantly restructured mid-period, data from before and after the cutover may not be comparable — presenting it as a continuous series creates misleading analysis and gives the business false confidence in the output.
+- Building a data-rich dashboard without reviewing whether the field combination creates PII or data exposure risk. Individual fields may each appear safe, but the dashboard as a whole can enable identity theft, fraud, or other misuse when enough personally identifiable or sensitive attributes are surfaced together.
+- Assuming someone will notify the reporting team when the upstream fix lands. In practice, the data warehouse or application team closes their ticket and moves on — they do not reliably loop back to inform the reporting team. If the reporting team does not proactively check at each cadence, an interim report can keep running long after the upstream fix has been applied, consuming CPU against the data warehouse and occupying licenses and capacity that could be repurposed for higher-priority work.
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. **Acknowledge the goal.** Confirm what the business user is trying to accomplish and why the upstream data or application is not currently meeting that need.
+2. **State Tableau's role clearly.** Explain that Tableau is the analytics layer — a companion to the system of record, not a replacement for it. The fix needs to be applied upstream.
+3. **Assess whether an interim report is appropriate.** Can the logic be faithfully replicated? Is the fix genuinely in queue with a realistic timeframe? Is the use case free of regulatory or customer harm risk?
+4. **If yes — build the interim report with guardrails:**
+   - Coordinate a timeframe with the data warehouse or application team, the dashboard team, and the business user.
+   - Attach named stakeholders who own the upstream fix and the report accountability.
+   - Add a sub-header to the dashboard: state the purpose and the expected fix window in broad terms.
+   - Establish a check-in cadence: 30-day for short fixes, monthly or quarterly for multi-year efforts.
+5. **If no — redirect to the upstream fix.** Explain the risk, decline to build an approximation, and offer to help document or escalate the upstream request instead.
+6. **Maintain the monitoring routine.** At each check-in, confirm five questions: purpose still valid, Tableau still right, stakeholders still correct, access list still appropriate, upstream fix still pending. Do not assume the data warehouse or application team will notify you when their fix lands — check proactively. When the fix is confirmed, decommission the interim report and reclaim the licenses and data warehouse capacity it was consuming.

+# Troubleshooting Common Tableau Issues
+
+Reference guide for diagnosing and resolving common Tableau Desktop problems — covering broken datasource connections, invalid calculated fields, dashboard rendering issues, and workbook corruption.
+
+Tags: troubleshooting, datasource, calculated-fields, workbook-corruption, recovery
+
+**Tactics companion:** `expertise://tableau/tactics/workflow/recovery` — the XML/authoring mechanics for this topic. (That companion covers recovery from a failed MCP apply call specifically; this file covers generic Desktop troubleshooting that applies regardless of how the workbook was authored.)
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Guides Claude through diagnosing broken datasource connections, invalid calculated fields, and blank dashboard views to restore a workbook to a working state.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: troubleshooting, datasource, calculated-fields, workbook-corruption, recovery, extract, performance, blank-view, connection-error
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "workbook won't open", "datasource connection error", "calculated field showing red exclamation", "dashboard view is blank", "extract refresh failing", "Tableau performance slow", "Cannot mix aggregate and non-aggregate", "Unknown field error", "workbook created with newer version", "recovering corrupted TWBX"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+- **A customer reports a broken workbook** — sheets not loading, datasource errors, missing fields
+- **A calculated field shows an error** in the Data pane despite appearing valid
+- **Dashboard views are blank or missing** after opening a workbook on a different machine
+- **A workbook won't open** or opens with an error dialog
+- **An extract is failing to refresh** on Tableau Server/Cloud
+
+---
+
+## Datasource Connection Errors
+
+### "Unable to connect to the server" or "Data source not found"
+
+**Causes:**
+- Server address or credentials changed
+- User doesn't have network access to the database from their machine
+- Published datasource was moved or deleted on the server
+
+**Diagnose:**
+1. Data menu → Data Sources — check which datasource is showing the error icon (red !)
+2. Right-click the datasource → Edit Connection — verify the server address and credentials
+3. Click Test Connection to check network reachability
+
+**Fix:**
+- Update the server address or credentials in Edit Connection
+- For published datasources, re-link: Data menu → New Data Source → select the published source from the server
+
+### Extract file not found (.hyper)
+
+Happens when a `.twb` (not packaged) references a local extract file at an absolute path, and the file has moved or doesn't exist on the current machine.
+
+**Fix:**
+- Data menu → Data Sources → right-click the datasource → Edit Connection → Browse to the new location of the `.hyper` file
+- Or, re-create the extract: Data menu → Extract Data
+
+**Prevention:** use `.twbx` (packaged workbook) for portability — it embeds the extract file.
+
+---
+
+## Invalid / Broken Calculated Fields
+
+A field showing a red exclamation mark in the Data pane.
+
+### Diagnostic steps
+
+1. Double-click the broken field → the formula editor shows the issue underlined in red with a description at the bottom
+2. Read the error message — the most common messages and their causes:
+
+| Error message | Cause |
+|---|---|
+| "Cannot mix aggregate and non-aggregate comparisons or results" | Formula mixes `SUM([Sales])` with row-level `[Quantity]` without an LOD |
+| "Cannot mix aggregate and non-aggregate arguments" | Same as above, different wording |
+| "Function 'X' is called with wrong number of arguments" | Wrong number of arguments to a function like DATEDIFF |
+| "Expected type '...'" | A string field used where a number is expected, or vice versa |
+| `Unknown field [X]` | The referenced field was renamed, deleted, or the datasource changed |
+| `Invalid reference to 'Parameters.[Name]'` | The parameter was renamed or deleted |
+
+### Quick fixes
+
+- **Unknown field:** check whether the referenced field still exists. If it was renamed, update the formula.
+- **Aggregate/non-aggregate mix:** wrap row-level fields in an aggregation (`SUM()`, `MIN()`, `AVG()`), or move the aggregation logic into a FIXED LOD.
+- **Wrong data type:** use `INT()`, `FLOAT()`, `STR()`, or `DATE()` to cast the field to the expected type.
+
+---
+
+## Dashboard Views Blank or Missing
+
+### Sheet appears blank on a dashboard
+
+**Check 1:** is the sheet hidden with a filter that returns no results? Add the sheet to its own tab and see if it shows data. If blank there too, the filter is too restrictive.
+
+**Check 2:** is the sheet's datasource connected? If the datasource has an error, the sheet renders blank on the dashboard without an obvious error message.
+
+**Check 3:** is the sheet's mark size too small? On a very small dashboard zone, marks may be sized to less than 1px. Right-click the blank zone → View Sheet → check the sheet at full size.
+
+### Sheet shows "Connecting..." indefinitely
+
+Usually a network timeout or datasource performance issue.
+
+**Diagnose:** navigate directly to the sheet tab — does it load there? If the sheet loads on the tab but hangs on the dashboard, it may be a dashboard layout performance issue. Check if other sheets on the same dashboard also hang.
+
+**Temporary fix:** create an extract (Data menu → Extract Data) to pre-compute the data. Extracts are much faster than live connections for dashboards.
+
+---
+
+## Workbook Won't Open
+
+### "This file is not in a recognizable format"
+
+- The file may be corrupted or saved in an incompatible Tableau version
+- If it's a `.twbx`, try renaming to `.zip` and extracting the `.twb` manually. Then try opening the `.twb` file directly.
+
+### "This workbook was created with a newer version of Tableau"
+
+Tableau workbooks are not backward-compatible by major version. A workbook saved in Tableau Desktop 2024.2 cannot be opened in 2023.3.
+
+**Options:**
+- Upgrade Tableau Desktop to a version ≥ the workbook's version
+- Ask the person who sent the workbook to re-save it using Save As in an older version (File → Export As Version)
+
+### Workbook opens but some sheets have errors
+
+- Check whether all custom fonts are installed on this machine (missing fonts can cause rendering differences, not errors)
+- Check whether the datasource is accessible from this machine
+- Check whether extensions used in the workbook are available on this Tableau version
+
+---
+
+## Extract Refresh Failures (Tableau Server/Cloud)
+
+**Find the failure reason:**
+1. On Tableau Server: Admin area → Jobs → find the failed job → click to see the error message
+2. On Tableau Cloud: same path via the web UI
+
+**Common causes:**
+
+| Error | Cause | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| "Authentication failed" | Database credentials expired or changed | Update credentials in the datasource's Edit Connection on Server |
+| "Connection timed out" | Database is slow or unreachable from the server | Check database performance; verify the server has network access to the database |
+| "Data source error: X" | Database-side error (permissions, table missing, syntax) | Check the database directly; verify the user account has SELECT permissions |
+| "Extract exceeds maximum allowed size" | Extract is larger than the server's size limit | Reduce extract size with extract filters; increase the server limit in Admin settings |
+
+**Credentials for extracts:** embedded credentials in an extract connection are used at refresh time. If the database password changes, the extract will start failing. Update via Data menu on the workbook → Data Sources → right-click → Edit Connection → update password → publish back to server.
+
+---
+
+## Undo and Recovery
+
+### Undo (in Desktop)
+
+Tableau supports multi-level undo (Ctrl+Z / Cmd+Z). Use it to step back from an unwanted change.
+
+### Revert to Saved
+
+File → Revert to Saved discards all changes since the last save and reloads from disk. Use when you've made a mess of a workbook and want to start from the last clean state.
+
+### Recovering an unsaved workbook
+
+Tableau Desktop auto-saves to a temp location. If Desktop crashes:
+- **Windows:** check `Documents\My Tableau Repository\Workbooks\` for auto-saved copies
+- **Mac:** check `~/Documents/My Tableau Repository/Workbooks/`
+
+Look for files with names like `Untitled` or the workbook name with a timestamp suffix.
+
+### Recovering from a corrupted .twbx
+
+1. Rename the `.twbx` to `.zip` and extract
+2. The `.twb` file inside is the XML workbook definition
+3. Open the `.twb` in a text editor and look for XML syntax errors (unclosed tags, invalid characters)
+4. Re-package: create a new `.zip`, add the corrected `.twb` and any data files, rename back to `.twbx`
+
+---
+
+## Performance Troubleshooting
+
+### Dashboard is slow to load
+
+**Check 1:** is it a live connection to a slow database? Create an extract and see if performance improves. If it does, the issue is database query time.
+
+**Check 2:** are there too many marks in the view? Text tables with thousands of rows, scatter plots with millions of points, and large crosstabs all render slowly. Use aggregation or filtering to reduce mark count.
+
+**Check 3:** are there complex table calculations or many FIXED LODs? Each adds query time. Check which views are slowest by loading them individually.
+
+**Check 4:** Tableau's Performance Recorder: Help menu → Settings and Performance → Start Performance Recording. Interact with the dashboard normally, then stop recording. This creates a workbook showing where time is spent (query time, rendering time, layout time).
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Always try to reproduce the issue on the same machine as the customer.** Many issues (missing fonts, network connectivity, extract paths) are environment-specific.
+- **Start with the simplest hypothesis.** Most workbook errors are broken field references, expired credentials, or version mismatches — not complex corruption.
+- **Check Tableau Server logs for Server-side issues.** Desktop errors are visible in the UI; Server errors (failed refreshes, publishing errors) require log inspection or the Admin area.
+- **Create an extract when diagnosing performance.** If an extract makes a slow dashboard fast, the bottleneck is the database, not Tableau.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Assuming a blank view is a rendering bug.** Almost always a data issue — too restrictive a filter, null handling, or a broken datasource. Check the data first.
+2. **Trying to open a newer workbook in an older Tableau version.** Tableau shows a cryptic error rather than a clear version mismatch message. Always check the Tableau version the workbook was saved with.
+3. **Updating datasource credentials locally without publishing the update.** The change stays on the local machine. To update credentials on the server, re-publish the workbook after updating the connection.
+4. **Attempting to recover from corruption by editing the TWB XML without understanding the structure.** Manual XML editing can introduce new errors. Make a backup copy first, and verify in Desktop before re-packaging.
+5. **Letting an extract go stale without noticing.** Extracts don't auto-refresh in Desktop — they only refresh if scheduled on Server or manually via Data → Refresh All Extracts. Stale extracts show old data without any warning.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+Work the sections above as a diagnostic decision tree: confirm the symptom (blank view, broken calc, won't-open, slow, failed refresh), form the simplest hypothesis, then verify the fix in Desktop before handing the workbook back. When the failure is in a workbook the agent just authored via an MCP apply call (malformed XML, rejected element, partial write), see `expertise://tableau/tactics/workflow/recovery` for the apply-call recovery steps.

+# Hidden Workbook Filters Are Not Row-Level Security
+
+Guidance for safely declining a common unsafe request: "hide restricted rows with a hidden workbook filter so certain users can't see them." A hidden or workbook-level filter is a presentation choice, not an access control, and must not be used to enforce who can see which data.
+
+---
+
+## When to Use This Module
+
+Use this guidance when a user asks to use a **filter** - especially a *hidden* one - to keep some viewers from seeing certain rows. Examples include "hide restricted customers so executives can't see them" or "filter out the rows that group X shouldn't see."
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Any "make a filter act as access control" request
+- Dashboards intended for audiences with different data-access rights
+- Requests to "hide" sensitive rows at the workbook layer
+
+---
+
+## Core Boundary
+
+A workbook or hidden filter only changes what a view *displays by default*. It does not remove the data from the workbook or extract, and it does not stop a viewer from reaching it through duplicating or editing the sheet, Web Edit, Download, View Data, or a new viz against the same source.
+
+Because the data remains reachable, a hidden or workbook-level filter cannot enforce who may see which rows.
+
+---
+
+## Governed Alternatives
+
+Redirect the user to governed row-level security:
+
+- **User filters / entitlements**: row-level security driven by the viewer's identity, such as `USERNAME()` or `ISMEMBEROF()`, ideally via an entitlements table joined to the data and applied as a **data source filter** on a **published data source** so the rule travels with the data.
+- **Permissions on a published data source / workbook** to control who can connect or see content.
+- **Security at the data layer** such as database RLS, secure views, or extract-time filtering tied to identity when the rule must be enforced regardless of client.
+
+Keep the answer in workbook and data-source terms. Do not turn it into a broad enterprise security architecture engagement unless the entitlements model itself needs a security owner.
+
+---
+
+## When to Say No
+
+Say no when a filter, hidden or visible, is being used as the mechanism that enforces who may see which rows.
+
+Recommended wording:
+
+> A hidden workbook filter changes what the view shows by default, but it does not secure the data. Anyone who can open the workbook can still reach the filtered-out rows. To actually restrict who sees which rows, use governed row-level security - a user-filter / entitlements rule applied to a published data source, or security enforced at the data source - backed by permissions. I can help you set that up instead.
+
+Offer this instead:
+
+- Row-level security via a user filter / entitlements table on a published data source
+- Permissions on the published data source / workbook
+- Row-level security enforced at the database or extract layer
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Name the boundary plainly.** A workbook or hidden filter only changes what the view displays by default; it does not secure the underlying data.
+- **Redirect to governed RLS.** Use published data source filters tied to identity, entitlements, permissions, or data-layer security.
+- **Keep it an authoring decision.** Explain the safe path in workbook/data-source terms rather than designing enterprise security.
+- **Validate by not implementing the unsafe path.** Do not apply a workbook change that adds a hidden or row-hiding filter presented as access control.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Treating a hidden or workbook-level filter as access control.** It only changes the default display.
+2. **Building a "works for the demo" workbook-only workaround and implying it controls access.**
+3. **Escalating into broad enterprise security architecture instead of giving the governed authoring answer.**
+4. **Assuming "hidden" means "inaccessible."** Web Edit, Download, duplicate-sheet, and View Data all bypass it.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. Acknowledge the goal: certain viewers should not see certain rows.
+2. State the constraint clearly: a hidden/workbook filter is not a security control; the data is still present and reachable.
+3. Explain why the shortcut is unsafe: duplicate/edit sheet, Web Edit, Download, and View Data can expose the rows.
+4. Offer the governed alternative: row-level security via user filter / entitlements on a published data source, plus permissions; or security at the data layer.
+5. Do not apply a workbook change that simulates access control with a hidden filter. Escalate to data/security ownership when the entitlements model needs to be defined.

+# PII and Fair Lending Field Exclusions
+
+Guidance for excluding personally identifiable information and fair-lending-sensitive fields from Tableau dashboards and underlying datasets before a workbook reaches production.
+
+---
+
+## When to Use This Module
+
+Use this guidance when a customer requests a dashboard that includes any of the following:
+
+- Customer names, addresses, phone numbers, or email addresses
+- FICO scores, credit scores, or loan amounts
+- Any personally identifiable information (PII) about end customers
+- Any field that would allow users to rank, sort, or prioritize records by a protected or sensitive attribute
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Financial services customers such as lending, banking, mortgage, and insurance
+- Any organization where Tableau dashboards do not inherit the access controls of the source operating system
+- All dashboard types: operational, inspection, and management performance
+
+---
+
+## Core Principle
+
+Tableau dashboards do not inherit the security and access controls of the operating system they companion. A user who has access to a Tableau dashboard may not have the same access rights as a user of the underlying loan origination system, CRM, or operational platform. This gap creates real exposure when sensitive fields are included, even if they appear to be controlled at the viz level.
+
+**The only safe position is to exclude sensitive fields from the dataset entirely** - not to filter them out in the viz, not to hide them in the workbook, but to never include them in the extract or data source.
+
+Anything in the underlying data can be exported through Tableau's built-in export, downloaded crosstabs, or by a developer querying the data source directly. If the field is in the data, it is potentially exposed.
+
+---
+
+## Fields to Exclude - PII
+
+Never include the following in a Tableau dataset or dashboard:
+
+- Customer first or last names
+- Property or mailing addresses
+- Phone numbers
+- Email addresses
+- Government-issued ID numbers such as SSN or EIN
+- Any other field that uniquely identifies or locates a specific individual
+
+---
+
+## Fields to Exclude - Fair Lending
+
+Never include the following in a Tableau dataset or dashboard where users work queues or task lists:
+
+- FICO or credit scores
+- Loan amounts or application amounts
+- Any field that enables a user to sort or rank tasks by a financially sensitive or protected attribute
+
+**Why this matters:** A sortable table of open loan files that includes FICO scores or loan amounts allows users to cherry-pick - to work only the highest-score or highest-value files first. This constitutes unfair lending practice and creates regulatory exposure for the organization. The field itself creates the risk, regardless of intent.
+
+---
+
+## When to Say No
+
+Say no when a customer requests any PII or fair-lending-sensitive field be included in a dashboard dataset or visualization.
+
+Recommended wording:
+
+> Including that field in this dashboard creates a compliance risk we need to avoid. Tableau dashboards don't inherit the access controls of your operating system - loan origination system, CRM, or servicing platform - so a user with dashboard access could see or export data they wouldn't have access to in the system of record. We recommend excluding this field from the dataset entirely, not just hiding it in the viz, so it cannot be exported or accessed downstream.
+
+For fair lending fields specifically:
+
+> Including loan amounts or FICO scores in a sortable task table would allow users to prioritize files by those values, which is an unfair lending practice. We exclude those fields from the dataset entirely so they cannot be surfaced, sorted, or exported through Tableau.
+
+Offer this instead:
+
+- Substitute anonymized or bucketed identifiers such as loan ID, case number, or file reference that allow task tracking without exposing PII
+- Use days-based priority fields such as days since last contact or days until closing for task prioritization instead of financial attribute fields
+- If a business need requires seeing sensitive details, direct the user to the operating system where access controls are properly enforced
+
+---
+
+## Escalation
+
+If a business stakeholder pushes back and insists the fields are necessary, escalate to a lead analyst, compliance officer, or legal/risk team before including the fields. Do not include sensitive fields pending escalation.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Exclude sensitive fields from the dataset entirely.** Hiding fields or filtering rows in a workbook is not enough.
+- **Catch the issue at consultation.** Peer review should confirm the decision, not be the first time the risk is discovered.
+- **Use approved substitutes.** Prefer anonymized IDs and days-based priority measures that support the workflow without exposing PII or fair-lending-sensitive ranking fields.
+- **Document the exclusion decision.** Keep the record with the dashboard request and peer review.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Hiding a sensitive field in the workbook instead of removing it from the dataset.** A hidden field is still in the underlying data and can be exported.
+2. **Assuming viz-level security is sufficient.** Row-level security and filtered views do not prevent data export by authorized users. The field must not exist in the dataset.
+3. **Treating this as a financial-services-only rule.** Any organization where Tableau access does not mirror operating system access has this exposure.
+4. **Waiting for peer review to catch it.** The consultation stage is where this should be identified and resolved before any work begins.
+5. **Adding loan amount or FICO as a non-visible sort field.** Even a sort-only field in the underlying data can be exported. Exclusion is the only safe option.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+This is a two-gate governance model.
+
+### Gate 1 - Consultation (before build)
+
+1. Review the dashboard request for sensitive field inclusions.
+2. If PII or fair-lending fields are requested, advise the business user that those fields cannot be included and explain why.
+3. Agree on approved substitute fields such as anonymized IDs or days-based priority fields before the dashboard is designed.
+4. Document the field exclusion decision in the request record.
+
+### Gate 2 - Peer Review (before production)
+
+1. Review the original request, dataset, dashboard, and test results together.
+2. Confirm that no PII or fair-lending-sensitive fields appear in the dataset, the viz, or the exported data.
+3. Confirm the guiding principle was followed end-to-end.
+4. Do not move the dashboard to production until this review is complete.

+# Bulk UI Translation of a Workbook (Three-Layer Text Model)
+
+Search terms: "translate the workbook into German"; "translate all visible text"; "tooltips didn't get translated"; "labels split across runs"; "don't rename my calculated fields"; "keep Controlling untranslated"; "use real umlauts not ae/oe"; "translate dashboard text zones".
+
+Tags: translation, localization, i18n, tooltip, customized-label, customized-tooltip, dashboard-text-zone, caption, desc, run, formatted-text, umlaut, loanword, exact-tag-replacement, per-worksheet-roundtrip, hidden-by-user
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this when a user asks to translate, or bulk-rewrite, all visible text in an open Tableau Desktop workbook. A naive "translate every text string" pass reliably misses the tooltips and on-canvas text of visuals, because that text does not live where a chart title does. Visible text lives in **three layers that behave differently**, and only two of them are safe to edit directly.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### The three text layers
+
+1. **Dashboard zones** — static `<text>` zones and button `<caption>` elements, in each dashboard's XML via `get-dashboard-xml`. **Safe to edit directly.**
+2. **Worksheet on-canvas text** — `<customized-label>` (chart captions) and `<customized-tooltip>` (hover text) inside each worksheet's `<pane>` via `get-worksheet-xml`. **Safe to edit directly.**
+3. **Calculated-field / parameter captions and descriptions** — the `<column caption="...">` attributes and their `<desc>` formula-documentation blocks. This is the **data-dictionary layer**. Editing a `caption` renames the field everywhere it is referenced (every tooltip, legend, and Analysis-pane entry that names it). **Not a cosmetic edit — flag, do not translate silently.**
+
+### Split-run coordination (German compounds)
+
+A single on-screen phrase is often stored as 2-3 separate `<run>` elements, each on its own line (for example, `Working` on one run, `Capital` on the next). Translate the phrase as a **coordinated whole**, not run-by-run: German compounds do not split at the same word boundary (Working Capital -> Betriebskapital / Umlaufvermögen, one word, not two). Decide the full translation first, then decide how to distribute it back across the runs.
+
+### Match the literal string exactly
+
+Replacement is a literal-string swap. Preserve exact leading/trailing whitespace, tabs (`\t`), and embedded newlines (`\n`) inside a run's text. A label stored as `"\tTotal Sales"` must be matched including its leading tab, or the replacement silently no-ops and the text is left in the source language.
+
+### Guardrails before you translate anything
+
+- **Skip `hidden-by-user='true'`** zones and panes — they are invisible template/documentation content, not worth the edit risk.
+- **Ask which sections (if any) are off-limits** (for example, a section about to be rebuilt or replaced) before touching them.
+- **Leave standard German business loanwords unchanged** even though they are English-spelled: `Controlling`, `ESG`, `Call Center`, `Control Tower`, `Cockpit`, `Material`, `Inflation`, `Start`. These are normal German business usage, not translation gaps.
+- **Use real UTF-8 umlauts** (`ä ö ü ß`), never ASCII substitutes like `ae` / `oe` / `ss`.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Layer 3 (calculated-field / parameter `caption` + `<desc>`) is **refuse-first**. When you find translatable text there, do not translate it in the same pass. List each one, explain that changing a `caption` is a workbook-wide field RENAME affecting every reference to that field, and get explicit sign-off before touching any of them. Report them separately from the safe layer-1/layer-2 edits you applied.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **Stopping at chart/dashboard titles.** The tooltips and on-canvas labels are the text most often missed — they are the reason a "translate everything" pass looks done but isn't.
+- **Translating split runs word-by-word.** `Working` + `Capital` -> `Arbeiten` + `Hauptstadt` is nonsense. Coordinate the compound.
+- **Loose text search instead of exact-tag replacement.** A global find/replace can corrupt placeholder or parameter-reference runs (which contain field references like `<[Datasource].[sum:Sales:qk]>`, not prose). Replace within the matched `<run>` tag only.
+- **Dropping the leading whitespace/tab/newline** so the literal match fails and the run is left untranslated.
+- **Silently renaming a `<column caption>` or `<desc>`** — a data-dictionary rename masquerading as a label edit.
+- **ASCII umlaut substitutes** (`Umsaetze` instead of `Umsätze`).
+- **Whole-workbook round-trips for a text edit** — slow, context-heavy, and it puts the fragile `<datasources>` block in the blast radius of a cosmetic change.
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Prefer per-worksheet and per-dashboard round-trips (W61)
+
+For text edits, work **one worksheet/dashboard at a time**: `get-worksheet-xml` or `get-dashboard-xml` -> edit the matched runs/captions -> `apply-worksheet` or `apply-dashboard`. Do **not** pull or re-apply the whole workbook to change tooltip/label text. Per-object round-trips keep the `<datasources>` block out of the edit path and keep only the object you are editing in context. A whole-workbook apply can silently collapse a datasource on an unrelated change.
+
+When the XML is too large for inline handling, use the cached XML slice workflow: `read-cached-xml` reads one worksheet/dashboard selector or byte range, and `write-cached-xml` can splice back one replacement worksheet/dashboard element. `write-cached-xml` validates the outer tag + name for selector-based splices, so exact-tag replacement is protected mechanically.
+
+The safe text-bearing shapes look like this:
+
+```xml
+<!-- Layer 2: worksheet on-canvas text, inside <pane> -->
+<customized-tooltip show-buttons='false'>
+  <formatted-text>
+    <run>Sales for </run>
+    <run>Working </run>   <!-- split-run compound: coordinate with the next run -->
+    <run>Capital</run>
+    <run> segment — source: Controlling</run>  <!-- Controlling = loanword, keep -->
+  </formatted-text>
+</customized-tooltip>
+<customized-label>
+  <formatted-text>
+    <run>	Total Sales</run>  <!-- leading tab (\t): match it exactly -->
+  </formatted-text>
+</customized-label>
+
+<!-- Layer 1: dashboard text zone -->
+<zone type-v2='text' h='10000' w='100000' x='0' y='0'>
+  <formatted-text><run>Quarterly Overview</run></formatted-text>
+</zone>
+
+<!-- Layer 3: data-dictionary — FLAG, do not rename silently -->
+<column caption='Profit Margin' datatype='real' name='[Calculation_ProfitMargin]' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='SUM([Profit]) / SUM([Sales])' />
+  <desc><formatted-text><run>Net profit divided by sales.</run></formatted-text></desc>
+</column>
+```
+
+### The verify loop
+
+Translate matched runs/captions with **exact-tag replacement** (not loose text search), apply back **per worksheet/dashboard**, then verify before moving on:
+
+```text
+1. get-worksheet-xml or get-dashboard-xml -> read this object's XML
+2. replace matched <run>/<customized-*> text (exact literal, umlauts, loanwords kept)
+3. apply-worksheet or apply-dashboard -> apply THIS object only
+4. worksheet/dashboard list readback -> confirm the sheet/dashboard set is intact
+5. check-for-user-changes -> confirm nothing else moved/broke
+6. only then advance to the next worksheet/dashboard
+```
+
+If `check-for-user-changes` shows an unexpected change, stop and reconcile before the next object — do not batch forward through a dirty state.

+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, format
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude choose sizing modes and container structures when authoring dashboard layouts.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: dashboards, sizing, containers, layout, structure
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "dashboard sizing mode recommendations", "fixed vs automatic sizing", "how to structure dashboard containers", "BAN row layout", "sidebar filter placement", "Z-pattern dashboard design", "dashboard too squished", "container tree for executive KPI", "vertical scroll vs fixed height", "1366x768 dashboard layout"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when:
+
+- **Choosing a sizing mode** (fixed, automatic, range, vertical scroll) for a specific deployment context
+- **Planning a container tree** before building a dashboard
+- **Explaining why content is squishing** or overflowing
+- **Building a specific layout type** — executive KPI, analyst with sidebar, or presentation
+
+---
+
+## Sizing Strategy
+
+### Sizing Modes
+
+| Mode | When to Use |
+|------|-------------|
+| **Fixed** | Known target screen size; presentations, kiosks, PDF export |
+| **Automatic** | Embedded in web apps with variable container size |
+| **Range** | Responsive layouts with min/max bounds |
+| **Vertical Scroll** | **Default for multi-chart dashboards** — allows vertical scrolling instead of squishing content |
+
+Set sizing mode via **Dashboard menu → Dashboard Size**.
+
+### Common Target Sizes
+
+| Context | Width x Height | Notes |
+|---------|---------------|-------|
+| Laptop (standard) | 1366 x 768 | Most common corporate laptop resolution |
+| Laptop (hi-res) | 1440 x 900 | MacBook, modern Windows laptops |
+| Desktop / presentation | 1920 x 1080 | Full HD monitors, projectors |
+| Tablet (landscape) | 1024 x 768 | iPad classic |
+| TV / wall display | 1920 x 1080 | Same as desktop; use large fonts |
+| Embedded (narrow) | 800 x 600 | Portal widgets, sidebar embeds |
+
+### Sizing Rules
+
+1. **Default to Vertical Scroll for multi-chart dashboards** — prevents squishing when you have 4+ visualizations.
+2. **Use Fixed only when** you have a known target screen size and minimal content (1-3 charts) that fits comfortably.
+3. **Design for the smallest target screen**, not the largest.
+4. **Subtract browser chrome** from the target resolution. At 1366x768, the usable Tableau Server viewport is roughly 1350x650 after the toolbar and browser address bar.
+5. **Range mode** is useful when publishing to both Tableau Server and Tableau Mobile — set min and max width/height for the target range.

+## Container Types
+
+| Container | Role |
+|-----------|------|
+| Horizontal layout container | Arranges children side-by-side |
+| Vertical layout container | Stacks children top to bottom |
+| Blank | Spacer — use for precise gap control |
+| Text object | Static labels, titles, callouts |
+| Image | Logo, divider graphic |
+| Filter / Parameter control | Interactive controls |
+
+---
+
+## Container Tree Patterns
+
+### Z-Pattern Layout
+
+```
+Vertical container (root)
+├── Title (text object, ~36px)
+├── Horizontal container — top row (evenly distributed)
+│   ├── Primary viz (sheet)
+│   └── Trend viz (sheet)
+└── Horizontal container — bottom row (evenly distributed)
+    ├── Breakdown viz (sheet)
+    └── Detail table (sheet)
+```
+
+### BAN + Detail Layout
+
+```
+Vertical container (root)
+├── Title (text object, ~36px)
+├── Horizontal container — BAN row (evenly distributed, ~90px)
+│   ├── BAN 1 (sheet)
+│   ├── BAN 2 (sheet)
+│   ├── BAN 3 (sheet)
+│   └── BAN 4 (sheet)
+├── Primary viz (sheet)
+└── Horizontal container — detail row (evenly distributed)
+    ├── Secondary viz A (sheet)
+    └── Secondary viz B (sheet)
+```
+
+### Sidebar Filter Layout
+
+```
+Horizontal container (root)
+├── Vertical container — content (flexible width)
+│   ├── Title (text object)
+│   ├── Horizontal container — BAN row
+│   └── Primary viz (sheet)
+└── Vertical container — sidebar (fixed width ~250px)
+    ├── Filter control
+    ├── Filter control
+    └── Parameter control
+```
+
+**Background color for visual grouping:** select a container → Layout pane → Background. Use `#F5F5F5` on the dashboard background and `#FFFFFF` on content group containers.
+

+
+## Worked Examples
+
+### Example 1: Executive KPI Dashboard (Z-Pattern, 1366x768)
+
+**Audience**: Senior leadership reviewing weekly metrics
+**Sizing**: Fixed 1366x768
+
+```
+┌──────────────────────────────────────┐
+│  Dashboard Title                      │  36px
+├────────┬────────┬────────┬───────────┤
+│Rev $2.4M│Orders 1.2K│Margin 34%│NPS 72│  90px — BAN row
+├──────────────────┬───────────────────┤
+│ Revenue Trend     │ Revenue by Region │  310px
+│ (line chart)      │ (filled map)      │
+├──────────────────┼───────────────────┤
+│ Top Products      │ Monthly Detail    │  310px
+│ (bar chart)       │ (crosstab)        │
+└──────────────────┴───────────────────┘
+```
+
+**Design decisions**: 4 BANs in distribute-evenly container. Revenue Trend at top-left as focal point. No sidebar filters — date controlled by a parameter in the BAN row.
+
+---
+
+### Example 2: Operational Analyst Dashboard (F-Pattern, 1366x768)
+
+**Audience**: Operations analysts monitoring daily performance
+**Sizing**: Vertical Scroll, 1366px wide
+
+```
+┌──────────────────────────────┬──────┐
+│  Dashboard Title              │      │
+├──────────────────────────────┤  F   │
+│  Daily Volume Trend           │  i   │  450px — tall primary viz
+│  (area chart)                 │  l   │
+│                               │  t   │
+├──────────┬───────────────────┤  e   │
+│ By Status │ By Category       │  r   │  280px — secondary row
+│ (donut)   │ (bar)             │  s   │
+└──────────┴───────────────────┴──────┘
+                                 250px
+```
+
+**Design decisions**: Sidebar at 250px fixed width holds 4 dropdown filters. Primary viz is tall (60% of content height). Blank spacer zones (8px) between primary and secondary rows.
+
+---
+
+### Example 3: Presentation Dashboard (Z-Pattern, 1920x1080)
+
+**Audience**: Board presentation on a projector
+**Sizing**: Fixed 1920x1080
+
+```
+┌───────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│           Quarterly Business Review             │  50px
+├─────────────┬─────────────┬──────────┬────────┤
+│  Revenue     │  Profit      │  Growth   │ Churn  │  120px — oversized BANs
+│  $14.2M      │  $3.1M       │  +18%     │ 2.4%   │
+├──────────────────────────┬────────────────────┤
+│  Revenue by Quarter       │  Profit by Segment  │  430px
+├──────────────────────────┴────────────────────┤
+│  Regional Performance (horizontal bar)         │  430px
+└───────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+**Design decisions**: BAN row 120px (taller than normal) for readability at distance. Only 3 charts + 4 BANs — simplicity is critical for presentations. No filters — static snapshot for a specific period.
+
+---
+
+### Example 4: Compact Embedded Widget (Inverted Pyramid, 800x600)
+
+**Audience**: Portal users viewing a summary widget
+**Sizing**: Range, min 600x400 / max 1000x700
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────┐
+│  Overall Score: 87 / 100     │  80px — single BAN
+├──────────────────────────────┤
+│  Score Trend (sparkline)     │  200px
+├──────────┬───────────────────┤
+│ By Team   │ By Category       │  300px
+└──────────┴───────────────────┘
+```
+
+**Design decisions**: Inverted pyramid — key insight first. No title zone (portal provides its own header). No filters — controlled externally via URL parameters.

+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Use the guidance above as the starting point for Tableau dashboard and visualization authoring decisions.
+- Validate the recommendation against the specific workbook, data, and customer goal before applying it.
+- Prefer supported Tableau authoring patterns over one-off workarounds.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- Treating this guidance as generic SE enablement rather than Tableau authoring guidance.
+- Applying the pattern without checking whether it fits the dashboard, visualization, or workbook context.
+- Skipping validation in Tableau after making authoring changes.
+
+## Implementation
+
+Use the sections above as the implementation reference for Tableau authoring. Apply the relevant pattern in the workbook or dashboard, then verify the result in Tableau for correctness, readability, and customer-safe behavior.

+# Parameter Actions: Clicking a Mark Sets a Parameter (edit-parameter-action)
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Establishes the click-to-set-parameter pattern and the common failure of using the Parameters pseudo-datasource as the action source-field, which has no real datasource.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: parameter-action, edit-parameter-action, click-to-set, dashboard-action, change-parameter, on-select, clickable, interactive, set-parameter-from-click, period-switch, mark-click
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "make clicking switch the period / option", "clicking a tile or mark should change the parameter", "let me click instead of using the dropdown", "a button that sets the parameter", "click a mark to drive the rest of the dashboard", "how do I wire a click to a parameter", "on-select parameter action"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Enforcement: judgment-only
+
+Use this when the requirement is **"clicking something changes what the dashboard shows"** and the thing it changes is a parameter (period, metric, top-N, scenario). A parameter action maps a field from a clicked mark onto a parameter, so selecting a mark on one sheet recomputes every view that reads that parameter. This is how the WOW W44 dashboard switches Month/Quarter/Year — there are no period BAN tiles to click; a small control sheet's marks are clicked, setting `p.Period`.
+
+This is the INTERACTIVITY half of `parameter-driven-views`: that entry says model the shared dimension once as a parameter; this entry wires the click that sets it.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Use a parameter action (`change-parameter`), not a filter action, when the goal is to RECOMPUTE.** A filter action removes rows; a parameter action changes a value the calcs read, re-ranking/recomputing the whole view. "Clicking re-ranks the chart for that period" is recompute → parameter action.
+2. **The action lives on the DASHBOARD, in `<actions>`, with `activation type='on-select'`.** It names a source sheet, a `source-field` (the field on the clicked mark), and a `target-parameter`.
+3. **Have a small dedicated control sheet to click.** In the reference build it's a one-field sheet (`[:Measure Names]`); clicking its marks is what fires the action. Keep the control compact and obvious; the main viz stays the consumer of the parameter.
+4. **The control sheet's clickable field MUST come from the REAL datasource, never `[Parameters]`.** The `source-field` is a field on a mark, and marks render only off a *connected* datasource. In the W44 build the clickable field is `[Sample - Superstore].[:Measure Names]` (the real Superstore datasource), NOT the parameter. A parameter can be the action's *target*, never the source mark's field — `[Parameters]` is a connectionless pseudo-datasource and a worksheet bound to it "does not have a valid data source." Build the selector tiles from a real string/Measure-Names dimension whose members map to the parameter's options (see Implementation).
+5. **`clear-option type='do-nothing'`** so deselecting doesn't reset the parameter to an empty state mid-interaction.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Wiring a filter action when you meant to switch a parameter.** The chart then filters rows instead of recomputing per the new value — top/bottom membership won't re-rank.
+2. **No control to click.** A parameter action needs a source mark; without a sheet whose marks carry the source-field, there's nothing to select. (A parameter shown only as a dropdown is fine too, but then there's no "click" — match the ask.)
+3. **Trying to put the PARAMETER itself on the selector sheet's shelf → "does not have a valid data source."** The most common failure on this build: the agent reaches for `[Parameters].[…]` as the clickable field, but marks must render off a *connected* datasource and `Parameters` has none, so the apply is rejected (the worksheet has no valid data source) and the selector never renders. FIX: the source-field is a real dimension from the data connection — e.g. `[Sample - Superstore].[:Measure Names]` filtered to the period members, or a small string-dimension calc whose values equal the parameter's allowed values. The parameter is only the action's `target-parameter`, never the source mark's field.
+4. **Target view doesn't read the parameter.** The action sets the parameter, but a view whose calcs don't reference it won't change — see `parameter-driven-views` mistake "views that don't read the parameter."
+5. **Putting the `<actions>` block on a worksheet.** Parameter/dashboard actions belong under the `<dashboard>`'s `<actions>`, not a worksheet.
+
+## Implementation in Tableau Desktop
+
+Confirmed-working `edit-parameter-action` from the WOW W44 dashboard (clicking a mark on the `Profit` control sheet sets the `p.Period` parameter):
+
+```xml
+<dashboard name='Top and Bottom Performers'>
+  ...
+  <actions>
+    <edit-parameter-action caption='Set Period' name='[Action_SetPeriod]'>
+      <activation type='on-select' />
+      <source dashboard='Top and Bottom Performers' type='sheet' worksheet='Profit' />
+      <agg-type type='attr' />
+      <clear-option type='do-nothing' value='s:LROOT:' />
+      <params>
+        <param name='source-field' value='[Sample - Superstore].[:Measure Names]' />
+        <param name='target-parameter' value='[Parameters].[p.Period]' />
+      </params>
+    </edit-parameter-action>
+  </actions>
+</dashboard>
+```
+
+1. Build the control sheet whose marks carry the `source-field` to click.
+2. Build the consumer view(s) whose calcs read the `target-parameter`.
+3. Add the `<edit-parameter-action>` to the dashboard's `<actions>`, mapping source-field → target-parameter, `on-select`.
+4. Verify by clicking a control mark: the parameter value changes and the consumer view recomputes. (In a headless eval, set the parameter value directly to confirm the consumer re-ranks — see `parameter-driven-views`.)
+
+### The selector control sheet (the piece agents get wrong)
+
+The clickable sheet (`Profit` in W44) is bound to the REAL datasource and puts a discrete dimension on a shelf — here `[:Measure Names]`, filtered to just the period members so the sheet shows one clickable mark per period option. Note the `<datasource-dependencies>` is `Sample - Superstore` (the connected data), and the categorical filter pins `[:Measure Names]` to exactly the period set. Transcribed from the published W44 workbook:
+
+```xml
+<worksheet name='Profit'>
+  <table>
+    <view>
+      <datasources>
+        <datasource caption='Sample - Superstore' name='federated.xxxx' />
+      </datasources>
+      <datasource-dependencies datasource='federated.xxxx'>
+        <!-- the period calcs that ARE the clickable options -->
+      </datasource-dependencies>
+      <!-- limit [:Measure Names] to just the period members -> one mark per period -->
+      <filter class='categorical' column='[Sample - Superstore].[:Measure Names]'>
+        <groupfilter function='union' user:op='manual'>
+          <groupfilter function='member' level='[:Measure Names]'
+            member='&quot;[Sample - Superstore].[sum:QTD:qk]&quot;' />
+          <groupfilter function='member' level='[:Measure Names]'
+            member='&quot;[Sample - Superstore].[sum:YTD:qk]&quot;' />
+          <!-- ...one <groupfilter member> per period option... -->
+        </groupfilter>
+      </filter>
+    </view>
+    <panes>
+      <pane>
+        <mark class='Automatic' />
+        <encodings>
+          <text column='[Sample - Superstore].[:Measure Names]' />
+        </encodings>
+      </pane>
+    </panes>
+    <rows />
+    <cols>[Sample - Superstore].[:Measure Names]</cols>
+  </table>
+</worksheet>
+```
+
+The action's `source-field` (`[Sample - Superstore].[:Measure Names]`) is exactly the field on this sheet's `<cols>` — that alignment is what lets a click resolve to a parameter value. If the selector sheet instead tried to carry `[Parameters].[…]`, it would fail to render ("no valid data source") because `Parameters` has no connection.
+
+(Simpler alternative when you don't need Measure-Names tiles: make a small string-dimension calc, e.g. `// PeriodOptions` returning the literal option labels, put it on Rows/Text of a sheet bound to the real datasource, and map THAT field as `source-field`. Same rule: the clickable field is a real connected dimension, never the parameter.)

+# Parameter-Driven Views: Model a Shared Dimension Once, Don't Build N Static Copies
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine
+- In-scope reason: Prevents the N-static-copies anti-pattern; models a shared dimension once so click-to-recompute has a foundation.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: parameter, parameter-action, edit-parameter-action, switcher, selector, toggle, drill, interactive-dashboard, clickable, re-rank, recompute, shared-dimension, one-parameter-not-many, period-selector, metric-switcher, view-switching
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "let the user switch between options", "clicking a tile changes the chart", "make the dashboard interactive so selecting one updates the others", "switch the view by period / region / metric", "a selector that drives the chart", "re-rank the chart when I pick a different option", "three buttons that change what the chart shows", "how do I make one click recompute the whole view", "don't want a separate sheet for every option", "make it so I can CLICK to change the period instead of using the dropdown", "clicking should set the period and re-sort the chart", "the top/bottom standouts should change between periods", "make the period selectable and re-rank per period"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Enforced-by: invalid-column-instance-pivot
+
+Reach for this the moment a request implies **several views that differ only by which value of ONE dimension they show**, and especially when **clicking** one is supposed to **change** the others:
+
+- "show it by Month, Quarter, or Year — and clicking one re-ranks the chart"
+- "let me toggle between Region / Segment / Category"
+- "pick a metric and the whole dashboard updates"
+- any "N options, selecting one drives the rest" interaction.
+
+The tell: the options are **values of the same dimension** (the periods, the regions, the metrics), and the deliverable is **switching among them**, not showing all at once.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Parameterize the shared dimension ONCE — do not build one static sheet per value.** The single most common structural mistake is authoring N hardcoded sheets ("KPI Month", "KPI Quarter", "KPI Year") — three frozen views that *cannot* respond to a click because there is nothing to select. Instead create ONE parameter (e.g. `[View Selector]`) whose value names the option, and ONE set of calcs/views that read it. This is the **spine**: the same parameter both *displays* the current selection and *drives* what every other view computes.
+2. **Display and interactivity are two uses of the same parameter — design them together.** A KPI/BAN tile that shows "the total for the selected option" reads the parameter; the clickable control that switches the option *sets* the parameter. Build the parameter first and both fall out of it. If you build the display as static numbers, you have thrown away the hook the interactivity needs and will have to rebuild from scratch.
+3. **The click is wired with a parameter action, not a filter.** A dashboard `<action>` of class change-parameter (an `edit-parameter-action`) maps a field on the source view to the parameter, so selecting a mark sets the parameter, which recomputes every view that reads it. Use a parameter action (not a filter action) when the goal is to *recompute/re-rank*, not merely to *filter rows*.
+4. **Anything that must change on selection must DEPEND on the parameter.** A view re-ranks per option only if its sort/tier/measure calc references the parameter. A view placed on the dashboard but computed independently of the parameter will sit there unchanged — looking interactive, doing nothing.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **N static copies instead of one parameter.** Building a separate sheet per option (one per period/region/metric) is the dead-end pattern: static sheets can't be selected or recomputed, so the interactivity step has no foundation and must be redone. Recognize the shared dimension and parameterize it once, up front.
+2. **Wiring a filter action when the goal is recompute.** A filter action removes rows; it does not change a ranking or a per-option calc. If the ask is "re-rank when I pick X", the selection must drive a **parameter** the calcs read, not a row filter.
+3. **A control that sets nothing.** A clickable tile/legend/control that is not bound to the parameter via an action changes nothing on click. The action is what makes the control live.
+4. **Views that don't read the parameter.** Placing the parameter action but leaving the target view's calc independent of the parameter — the parameter changes, the view doesn't. Every element that should update must reference the parameter in its calc.
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. **Author the parameter** (a `<column>` with `param-domain-type='list'` and the allowed values) in the Parameters datasource — one parameter for the shared dimension, default to the first option.
+2. **Make the views depend on it.** Any calc that should change per option references the parameter (e.g. a calc that selects/aggregates based on `[View Selector]`). Display tiles read it to show the current option's value; the main chart's sort/tier calc reads it so it re-ranks.
+3. **Wire the click** with a dashboard parameter action. Confirmed-working shape (a change-parameter action mapping a clicked field to the parameter):
+
+```xml
+<actions>
+  <action name="Select Option" class="change-parameter">
+    <activation type="on-select"/>
+    <source type="sheet" sheet="Selector"/>
+    <command command="tablomatic-change-parameter">
+      <param name="parameter" value="[Parameters].[View Selector]"/>
+      <param name="field" value="[Option Label]"/>
+    </command>
+  </action>
+</actions>
+```
+
+4. **Verify by switching the value.** Set the parameter to each option (or click each control) and confirm the dependent views actually change — the ranking/membership/total should differ per option. If a view looks identical for every value, it does not read the parameter (mistake #4).

+
+---
+

+
+

+- In-scope reason: Provides the exact zone XML structure, devicelayouts rules, and dashboard action syntax Claude needs to programmatically create or edit dashboard layouts via MCP tools.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: dashboard, zones, layout, devicelayouts, navigation-buttons, dashboard-actions, filter-zones, parameter-controls, zone-ids, zone-coordinates, dashboard-xml, zone-style, viewpoints, zone-flattening, window-uuid

+
+## ⚠️ Read this before hand-crafting dashboard XML
+
+**Strong recommendation: don't.** Use `plan-dashboard-creation` → `batch-create-and-cache-sheets` → `build-and-apply-dashboard` (the fast path), or `batch-create-and-cache-sheets` to allocate the dashboard shell and then push edits via `apply-dashboard-with-viewpoints`. Hand-crafting dashboard + window XML and injecting via a single `apply-workbook` call is the path most likely to trigger the metadata loader.
+
+If you must hand-craft anyway, these are the three assertions that actually fire — each one observed in production session logs (`<repositoryDir>/Logs/log.txt`):
+
+1. **`CheckSizeValidity` LogicAssert** — `<size sizing-mode='fixed'>` requires `minwidth == maxwidth` AND `minheight == maxheight`. A range triggers a fatal assert in `DashboardSizePresModelBuilder.cpp:180`. Symptom: `apply-workbook` returns "Failed to apply workbook XML"; log shows `condition: 'CheckSizeValidity(minWidth, minHeight, maxWidth, maxHeight, sizeMode)'`.
+
+   ```xml
+   <!-- WRONG: min != max with fixed sizing -->
+   <size sizing-mode='fixed' maxwidth='1400' maxheight='1000' minwidth='1000' minheight='800' />
+
+   <!-- RIGHT: min == max for fixed sizing -->
+   <size sizing-mode='fixed' minwidth='1400' maxwidth='1400' minheight='1000' maxheight='1000' />
+   ```
+
+2. **`HasVisualDoc` failure** — `<window class='dashboard'><viewpoints>` must contain bare `<viewpoint name='SheetName' />` leaves, NOT nested `<window>` elements. If viewpoints are malformed, the whole workbook load is rejected in `DashboardController_VisualControllers.cpp`.
+
+   ```xml
+   <!-- WRONG: nested <window> elements inside <viewpoints> -->
+   <window class='dashboard' name='My Dashboard'>
+     <viewpoints>
+       <window class='worksheet' name='Sheet 1'><cards>...</cards><viewpoint /></window>
+     </viewpoints>
+   </window>
+
+   <!-- RIGHT: bare viewpoint leaves -->
+   <window class='dashboard' name='My Dashboard'>
+     <viewpoints>
+       <viewpoint name='Sheet 1' />
+       <viewpoint name='Sheet 2' />
+     </viewpoints>
+     <active id='-1' />
+   </window>
+   ```
+
+3. **Silent zone flattening** — nested `<zone type-v2='layout-flow'>` rows whose children are sheet zones (with `name='...'`) can get silently dropped at apply. Dashboard-list readback can still report success, so the failure is invisible to the agent. Always verify post-apply by re-fetching with `get-dashboard-xml` and counting zones: if the zone count went down, your layout structure was rejected and you need to restructure (use a flat `layout-basic` parent with absolute coords, OR mimic the reference workbook's `<zone param='horz' type-v2='layout-flow'>` row pattern with explicit per-child coords in 100000-based percentages).
+
+---
+
+## Dashboard node position (critical)
+
+**Dashboards go in the `<dashboards>` element, NOT the `<worksheets>` element.** Adding a dashboard to `<worksheets>` crashes Tableau immediately on load.
+
+Always navigate by element name, not by index:
+
+```python
+import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
+
+tree = ET.parse('cache/workbook-XXXX.xml')
+root = tree.getroot()
+wb = root  # or root.find('workbook') depending on file structure
+dashboards_node = wb.find('dashboards')
+windows_node    = wb.find('windows')
+dashboards_node.append(new_dashboard_element)
+windows_node.append(new_dashboard_window_element)
+```
+
+**Dashboard children order:** `<style>` → `<size>` → `<zones>` → `<devicelayouts>` → `<simple-id>`
+
+---
+
+## Zone layout rules
+
+1. **Use `type-v2`**, not `type`, for layout zone types. Tableau normalizes on load.
+2. **Flat layout**: sheet zones are direct children of the root `layout-basic` zone using absolute coordinates (0–100000 scale). Do NOT nest layout containers.
+3. **Zone IDs** must be unique across the entire workbook. Inspect the existing workbook to find the highest ID in use and increment from there.
+4. **Zone coordinates**: margins offset from 0. Typical pattern: x=800, y=1000 for first zone.
+5. Each sheet zone needs a `<zone-style>` child with border and margin=4 format nodes.
+6. The root `layout-basic` zone needs a `<zone-style>` child (margin=8), placed as the **last child** after all sheet zones.
+7. **`<devicelayouts>` is REQUIRED** — omitting it causes sheets to appear invisible.
+8. **Dashboard children order**: `<style>` → `<size>` → `<zones>` → `<devicelayouts>` → `<simple-id>`.

+      </zones>
+    </devicelayout>
+  </devicelayouts>
+  <simple-id uuid="{GENERATE-UUID-HERE}"/>
+</dashboard>
+```
+
+**Zone ID rules:** Sheet zone IDs must match exactly between `<zones>` and `<devicelayouts>`. The `<devicelayouts>` container zones use their own IDs not shared with main `<zones>`.
+
+---
+
+## Dashboard canvas size
+
+```python
+size_node = dashboard_element.find('size')
+size_node.set('minwidth', '1600')
+size_node.set('maxwidth', '1600')
+size_node.set('minheight', '900')
+size_node.set('maxheight', '900')
+```
+
+Common sizes: `1000×800` (default), `1600×900` (widescreen), `1200×800`.
+
+---
+
+## Proportional zone sizing formula
+
+Total usable height: ~98222 units (y=889 to y=99111).
+
+| Layout | Top h | Bottom y | Bottom h |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| 50% / 50% | 49111 | 50000 | 49111 |
+| 25% / 75% | 24556 | 25445 | 73666 |
+| 33% / 67% | 32413 | 33302 | 64920 |
+
+Formula: `top_h = round(98222 * pct)`, `bot_y = 889 + top_h`, `bot_h = 98222 - top_h`
+
+---
+
+## Zone resizing — do NOT patch by zone ID
+
+**Zone IDs are shared across dashboards.** Patching by ID will inadvertently update zones in other dashboards.
+
+**Safe approach:** Target zones by dashboard name AND zone name. Better: replace the entire dashboard element with fresh unique IDs.
+
+```python
+import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
+
+# WRONG — modifies zones by ID across all dashboards
+for zone in root.iter('zone'):
+    if zone.get('id') == '137':
+        zone.set('h', '24556')  # Affects OTHER dashboards too!
+
+# RIGHT — target within a specific dashboard by zone name
+for dashboard in root.iter('dashboard'):
+    if dashboard.get('name') == 'Customers':
+        for zone in dashboard.iter('zone'):
+            if zone.get('name') == 'Customer Overview':
+                zone.set('h', '24556')
+```
+
+---
+
+## Dashboard window entry
+
+```xml
+<window name="My Dashboard" class="dashboard" maximized="true">
+  <viewpoints>
+    <viewpoint name="Sheet A">
+      <zoom type="entire-view"/>
+    </viewpoint>
+    <viewpoint name="Sheet B">
+      <zoom type="entire-view"/>
+    </viewpoint>
+  </viewpoints>
+  <active id="8"/>
+  <simple-id uuid="{GENERATE-UUID-HERE}"/>
+</window>
+```
+
+Zoom type values: `"entire-view"`, `"fit-width"`, `"fit-height"`, `"none"` (Normal).
+
+---
+
+## Navigation buttons
+
+Navigation buttons are zones with `type-v2="dashboard-object"` placed as **siblings** of the `layout-basic` container (direct children of the root `<zones>` element), NOT inside the layout-basic container:
+
+The `tabdoc:goto-sheet` string below is a workbook XML button action, not an `execute-tableau-command` recipe. For agent-driven sheet/dashboard navigation, use `activate-sheet`; raw `tabdoc:goto-sheet` is refused at the execute boundary.
+
+```xml
+<zone x="85875" y="889" w="8875" h="4111" type-v2="dashboard-object" id="249">
+  <button button-type="text"
+          action="tabdoc:goto-sheet window-id=&quot;{TARGET-DASHBOARD-WINDOW-UUID}&quot;">
+    <button-visual-state>
+      <caption>Product</caption>
+      <button-caption-font-style fontname="Tableau Bold" fontsize="12"/>
+      <format attr="background-color" value="#ffffff"/>
+      <format attr="border-style" value="dotted"/>
+      <format attr="border-width" value="1"/>
+      <format attr="border-color" value="#000000"/>
+    </button-visual-state>
+  </button>
+</zone>
+```
+
+`action` requires the **window** UUID (from `<windows>` element), NOT the dashboard's own `<simple-id>` UUID.
+
+---
+
+## Dashboard actions
+
+Actions live in a **top-level `<actions>` element** in the workbook (sibling to `<worksheets>`, `<dashboards>`) — NOT inside the dashboard element itself.
+
+The `<actions>` element is a direct child of the workbook root. If one already exists, append to it; do not create a duplicate.
+
+### Highlight action (`tsc:brush`)
+
+```xml
+<action name="[Action1_A3F9F03BE528430FB01C001E7EF5FA14]" caption="Highlight1">
+  <activation type="on-hover" auto-clear="true"/>
+  <source type="sheet" dashboard="Customers">
+    <exclude-sheet name="Customer Overview"/>
+  </source>
+  <command command="tsc:brush">
+    <param name="exclude" value="Customer Overview"/>
+    <param name="field-captions" value="Customer Name"/>
+    <param name="target" value="Customers"/>
+  </command>
+</action>
+```
+
+- `activation type`: `"on-hover"` or `"on-select"`
+- `auto-clear="true"` resets when mouse leaves / selection clears
+- **`<exclude-sheet>` excludes a sheet from BOTH triggering AND receiving** — to have all sheets participate, omit excludes entirely
+- `field-captions` = field name to match on
+
+### Filter action — All Fields variant (simpler, recommended)
+
+```xml
+<action name="[Action1_DE4200E5E5F14FC68D4CEE8CB0439BBB]" caption="State Filter">
+  <activation type="on-select" auto-clear="true"/>
+  <source type="sheet" worksheet="Midwest Sales by State" dashboard="Midwest Analysis"/>
+  <command command="tsc:tsl-filter">
+    <param name="exclude" value="Midwest Sales by State"/>
+    <param name="special-fields" value="all"/>
+    <param name="target" value="Midwest Analysis"/>
+  </command>
+</action>
+```
+
+- `exclude` param prevents the filter from being applied back to the source sheet. Omit to filter all sheets including source.
+- No `<datasources>`/`<datasource-dependencies>` needed in the `<actions>` element for this variant.
+
+### Cross-filtering all sheets symmetrically
+
+Omit `exclude` and use `auto-clear="true"`. Add one action per source sheet:
+
+```xml
+<action name="[Action2_GUID]" caption="Filter 1 (generated)">
+  <activation type="on-select" auto-clear="true"/>
+  <source type="sheet" worksheet="Sub-Category" dashboard="Analysis"/>
+  <command command="tsc:tsl-filter">
+    <param name="special-fields" value="all"/>
+    <param name="target" value="Analysis"/>
+  </command>
+</action>
+```
+
+### Filter action — Specific field variant (TSL expression)
+
+For filtering on a specific field only:
+
+```xml
+<link caption="Filter1"
+      expression="tsl:Customers?%5BSample%20-%20Superstore%5D.%5BRegion%5D~s0=&lt;[Sample - Superstore].[Region]~na&gt;"
+      escape="\\"
+      multi-select="true"
+      url-escape="true"
+      delimiter=","/>
+```
+
+TSL format (URL-decoded): `tsl:{dashboard}?{DS}.{field}~s0=<{DS}.{field}~na>`
+
+URL-encode: spaces → `%20`, `[` → `%5B`, `]` → `%5D`
+
+Also requires `<datasources>` + `<datasource-dependencies>` siblings inside the `<actions>` element, listing the filtered field.
+
+### Parameter action
+
+Parameter actions use `<edit-parameter-action>`. This element is valid in workbook schema version 18.1+ (Tableau 2026.1) when the workbook is created/applied via MCP `apply-workbook`. However, **injecting it into a TWB extracted from a TWBX may fail validation** if the TWBX was saved with a different internal schema declaration.
+
+**If validation fails** (Error D2E8DA72: "no declaration found for element 'edit-parameter-action'"), create one action via Tableau UI first, then get-workbook to capture the working XML pattern and replicate for remaining actions.
+
+```xml
+<edit-parameter-action caption='Set Color by Category' name='[Action5_GUID]'>
+  <activation type='on-select' />
+  <source dashboard='Dynamic Dimension Coloring' type='sheet' worksheet='Sales by Category' />
+  <agg-type type='attr' />
+  <clear-option type='do-nothing' value='s:LROOT:Category' />
+  <params>
+    <param name='source-field' value='[federated.superstore001].[none:Calc_paramCategory:nk]' />
+    <param name='target-parameter' value='[Parameters].[Parameter 1]' />
+  </params>
+</edit-parameter-action>
+```
+
+- `source-field`: the field on the source worksheet's Detail (`lod`) shelf whose value is sent
+- `target-parameter`: format `[Parameters].[ParameterName]`
+- `clear-option value`: `s:LROOT:` + the default value to keep when selection clears
+- `agg-type='attr'`: read the unaggregated value from the clicked mark
+
+### Action duplication
+
+Tableau auto-generates per-sheet-pair copies of highlight and parameter actions for dashboards. A workbook with 1 highlight + 4 parameter actions on a 4-sheet dashboard will balloon to ~500+ actions. When editing workbook XML, always replace the entire `<actions>` block with the clean set — Tableau will re-generate the duplicates internally.
+
+---
+
+## Filter zones on dashboards
+
+Filter zones require THREE things to display a filter control:
+
+1. `param` attribute — the fully qualified field reference (e.g., `[federated.cc01].[tmn:Calc_Date:qk]`)
+2. `values` attribute — the filter display type (e.g., `"database"`)
+3. Dashboard-level `<datasources>` + `<datasource-dependencies>` referencing the filter field
+
+```xml
+<dashboard name="MyDash">
+  <datasources>
+    <datasource caption="My Data" name="federated.ds01"/>
+  </datasources>
+  <datasource-dependencies datasource="federated.ds01">
+    <column caption="Date" datatype="date" name="[Calc_Date]" role="dimension" type="ordinal">
+      <calculation class="tableau" formula="DATE([Timestamp])"/>
+    </column>
+    <column-instance column="[Calc_Date]" derivation="Month-Trunc" name="[tmn:Calc_Date:qk]" pivot="key" type="quantitative"/>
+  </datasource-dependencies>
+  <zones>
+    ...
+    <zone id="17" name="Sheet Name" param="[federated.ds01].[tmn:Calc_Date:qk]" type-v2="filter" values="database" ...>
+    ...
+  </zones>
+</dashboard>
+```
+
+**Without `param`**, the filter zone renders as empty/invisible. The `param` value must exactly match a `column-instance` name in the dashboard's `datasource-dependencies`.
+
+To constrain filter width, wrap in a horizontal `layout-flow` container with an `empty` spacer zone:
+
+```xml
+<zone param="horz" type-v2="layout-flow">
+  <zone fixed-size="792" is-fixed="true" type-v2="empty"/>
+  <zone name="Sheet" param="[ds].[field:ref]" type-v2="filter" values="database"/>
+</zone>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Parameter control zones
+
+**Parameter control zones** use `type-v2="paramctrl"` with NO `name` attribute:
+
+```xml
+<zone id="32" mode="compact" param="[Parameters].[Param_Granularity]" type-v2="paramctrl" .../>
+```
+
+- `param` = `[Parameters].[ParameterName]` (the parameter datasource reference)
+- `mode="compact"` for dropdown style
+- Do NOT add `name="worksheet"` — paramctrl zones are datasource-level, not worksheet-level
+- Requires dashboard-level `<datasource-dependencies datasource="Parameters">` with the parameter column definition
+
+---
+
+## Axis title renaming and cleanup
+
+To give an axis a clean label (replacing the raw field name):
+
+```xml
+<style-rule element="axis">
+  <format attr="title" class="0" field="[datasource].[field:ref]" scope="rows" value="Calls"/>
+  <format attr="auto-subtitle" class="0" field="[datasource].[field:ref]" scope="rows" value="true"/>
+  <format attr="subtitle" class="0" field="[datasource].[field:ref]" scope="rows" value=""/>
+</style-rule>
+```
+
+- `attr="title"` + `value="Calls"` — sets the axis title text
+- `scope="rows"` or `scope="cols"` — which axis
+- To HIDE an axis title entirely: `<format attr="title" ... value=""/>` (empty string)
+- To HIDE axis display: `<format attr="display" class="0" field="..." scope="rows" value="false"/>`
+
+---
+
+## Hiding field labels
+
+To hide column/row field labels (the field name header above the values):
+
+```xml
+<style-rule element="worksheet">
+  <format attr="display-field-labels" scope="cols" value="false"/>
+</style-rule>
+```
+
+- `scope="cols"` hides column field labels; `scope="rows"` hides row field labels
+- Must be inside `<style-rule element="worksheet">`, NOT `element="table"`
+- Goes in the table-level `<style>` block (sibling of `<panes>`)
+
+---
+
+## Shelf changes — MCP tools vs direct XML
+
+**Modifying** an existing worksheet's `<rows>`/`<cols>` via direct XML edit causes `apply-worksheet` to fail. Use the `add-field` tool (target=cols/rows) for incremental changes.
+
+**However**, writing a COMPLETE worksheet XML (replacing the entire worksheet content) with direct `<rows>`/`<cols>` DOES work — even with complex nesting like `(dim / (KPI1 / KPI2 / ...)) * (measure1 + measure2)`. The key is writing the full worksheet, not editing just the shelf lines.
+
+---
+
+## Saving workbooks
+
+**Check whether the workbook has a file path before saving:**
+
+```powershell
+# Returns True if workbook is unsaved (no file path)
+(Get-Process tableau).MainWindowTitle -match 'Book\d+'
+```
+
+- Window title contains `"BookN"` → **unsaved** (created via `apply-workbook`). `tabdoc:save` will silently fail with internal error 6EA18A9E. Use `tabdoc:save-as` instead.
+- Window title contains an actual filename → **has file path**. `tabdoc:save` works.
+
+**TWBX repackaging** (reliable for any workbook state):
+1. Get workbook XML via `get-workbook-xml`
+2. Clean auto-duplicated actions
+3. Write TWB to a temp working directory (e.g. `$env:TEMP/tableau-mcp-twbx-extract/` on Windows, `/tmp/tableau-mcp-twbx-extract/` on Unix) — **do NOT write to a project-relative path**, it pollutes the working tree
+4. Update TWBX zip entry via PowerShell `System.IO.Compression.ZipFile`
+
+---
+
+## Dashboard XML via API — hard crash warning
+
+Submitting a dashboard element via `apply-workbook` can cause a **hard crash** in Tableau's workbook document apply path. When this happens, the workbook is left completely empty (all worksheets wiped). The apply history snapshots cannot protect against this — the crash prevents a post-apply snapshot from being saved. Use `tabdoc:undo` immediately if this occurs.
+
+**This is not a soft error.** There is no recovery once it occurs.
+
+**Safe approach:**
+1. Build and verify all worksheets via API first
+2. Have the user create the dashboard manually in Tableau (drag sheets in)
+3. Inspect the result with `get-workbook-xml` to capture the exact working XML
+4. Use that native-authored XML as a template for future dashboard creation
+
+**If you must attempt dashboard XML via API:** work on a separate workbook copy so that sheets are not at risk.
+
+---
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this module when you need to:
+
+- **Create a new dashboard** and lay out worksheet zones on the canvas
+- **Resize or reposition zones** within an existing dashboard
+- **Add navigation buttons** between dashboards
+- **Add dashboard actions** (highlight, filter, or parameter actions triggered by user interaction)
+- **Add filter zones or parameter controls** to a dashboard
+- **Rename or hide axis titles** and field labels
+- **Save workbooks** programmatically (detect file path state first)
+- **Hide worksheets** that are used in dashboards but shouldn't appear as tabs
+- Understand the **dashboard XML structure** (zones, devicelayouts, window entries)
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Always include `devicelayouts`**: Omitting the `devicelayouts` node causes all sheets to appear invisible on the dashboard. It is required even if you don't care about phone layouts.
+- **Use unique zone IDs**: Zone IDs must be unique across the entire workbook. Find the max existing ID with `get-workbook-xml` and increment from there.
+- **Match zone IDs between `zones` and `devicelayouts`**: Sheet zone IDs must be identical in both the main `zones` block and the `devicelayouts/zones` block.
+- **Target zones by name, not by ID**: IDs are shared across dashboards — patching by ID modifies zones in other dashboards. Always scope modifications to a specific dashboard name.
+- **Add actions to the top-level `actions` node**: Dashboard actions are siblings of `worksheets`/`dashboards` at the workbook root — not inside the dashboard node itself.
+- **Use `type-v2` not `type` for layout zone types**: Tableau normalizes on load and expects `type-v2`.
+- **Test after dashboard API submission**: Dashboard creation can cause hard crashes in Tableau's metadata loader. Always verify with worksheet-list readback immediately after submission.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Adding dashboard to `worksheets` node**: Dashboards belong in the `dashboards` node. Adding a dashboard element to `worksheets` causes Tableau to crash immediately on load.
+2. **Omitting `devicelayouts`**: This is the most common cause of "sheets not showing up" in dashboards. Always include at least the auto-generated Phone layout.
+3. **Wrong node position for actions**: Dashboard actions placed inside the dashboard node (as children) are ignored. They must be in the top-level `actions` node at the workbook root.
+4. **Patching zones by ID across dashboards**: Zone IDs are shared globally — a patch by ID can silently modify zones in a different dashboard than intended.
+5. **Wrong `action` target UUID**: Navigation button `action` requires the **window** UUID (from the `windows` node), not the dashboard's `simple-id` UUID.
+6. **Missing `zone-style` children**: Each sheet zone and the root layout-basic zone need a `zone-style` child with border/margin format nodes. Missing them causes layout rendering artifacts.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+The recommended workflow for creating a dashboard via API:
+
+1. **Build and verify all worksheets first**: Use `apply-workbook` plus worksheet-list readback to confirm all source worksheets load correctly before attempting dashboard creation.
+2. **Have the user create the dashboard manually if possible**: Drag sheets into a dashboard in Tableau's UI, then call `get-workbook-xml` to capture the exact native XML. Use that as a template — it is guaranteed to be valid.
+3. **If building the dashboard XML manually**:
+   - Assign fresh unique zone IDs (higher than any existing IDs in the workbook)
+   - Include `style` → `size` → `zones` → `devicelayouts` → `simple-id` children in that order
+   - Generate a new UUID for `simple-id`
+   - Use the 0–100000 coordinate scale for zone positions
+4. **Submit with `apply-workbook`** and verify. If a hard crash occurs (workbook wiped), use `tabdoc:undo` immediately — the apply history snapshots cannot help here because the crash prevents the snapshot from being saved.
+5. **Verify**: List the workbook dashboards to confirm the new dashboard appears. If it timed out, check first before retrying — the dashboard may have been applied successfully.
+
+### Preferred: Two-step dashboard creation (confirmed safe)
+
+Direct dashboard XML injection via `apply-workbook` frequently fails or crashes Tableau. A **two-step approach** using dedicated tools is safer and confirmed working:
+
+1. **Create empty scaffold**: Call `batch-create-and-cache-sheets` with the dashboard name (and any worksheet names). This creates a minimal dashboard node with correct window pairing and applies the workbook in one step, returning cached file paths.
+2. **Populate zones**: Call `get-dashboard-xml` to get the empty dashboard XML. Edit the cached file to add zone layout (sheet zones inside a `layout-basic` root zone, plus `devicelayouts`). Then call `apply-dashboard-with-viewpoints` with the modified file and the list of worksheet names.
+
+This avoids the hard crash because `batch-create-and-cache-sheets` handles the delicate dashboard/window pairing, and `apply-dashboard-with-viewpoints` handles viewpoint injection separately.
+
+**What does NOT work reliably**: Building the complete dashboard + window XML by hand and injecting via `apply-workbook` in a single step — this is the path most likely to trigger the metadata loader crash.

+# Ratios, Windows & Grand Totals: Aggregate in the Right Order
+
+The single most common numeric-correctness bug in Tableau is aggregating in the wrong order. A ratio is `SUM(numerator) / SUM(denominator)` — **not** `AVG(numerator / denominator)`. A moving average or percent-of-total over a window operates on already-aggregated marks, so its addressing (Compute Using) is load-bearing. And a grand total of a calculated/ratio field does **not** sum the visible cells — Tableau recomputes the calc over all rows, which is why a total can look "wrong." Get the aggregation order and the total-aggregation setting right and these four asks are one idea.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: calculate, troubleshoot, validate
+- In-scope reason: Gives the correct aggregation order for ratios (SUM/SUM vs AVG-of-ratios), moving averages and percent-of-total over windows (addressing), and grand totals of calculated fields (Total using), so KPIs and totals compute correctly instead of silently wrong.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: aggregate-ratio, ratio-of-sums, sum-over-sum, percent-of-total, window-sum, window-avg, moving-average, grand-total, total-using, aggregation-order, market-share, compute-using
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "market share by dividing one value by another", "divide one measure by another correctly", "average of ratios vs ratio of sums", "moving average of a calculated percentage", "moving average of a ratio", "percent of total over a moving sum window", "WINDOW_SUM percent of total", "grand total not adding up correctly", "grand total wrong for a calculated field", "why is my ratio grand total wrong", "total using sum vs automatic", "my percentage total doesn't match", "surplus deficit grand total incorrect"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Reach for this whenever the number is a **ratio, a windowed aggregate, or a total of a calc** and the result looks off:
+
+- "Market share = one value divided by another" (a ratio KPI).
+- "Moving average of a percentage / ratio" (a window over a ratio).
+- "Percent of total over a moving sum window" (a window numerator over a total denominator, addressing-sensitive).
+- "The grand total doesn't add up" for a calculated field.
+
+All four are aggregation-order problems, not formula-syntax problems.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **A ratio is a ratio of sums, computed from aggregates.** Write `SUM([Numerator]) / SUM([Denominator])` — a calc that divides two aggregate expressions. This gives the correct blended rate at any level of detail because it sums the parts first, then divides.
+2. **Never average row-level ratios unless that is literally the question.** `AVG([Numerator] / [Denominator])` weights every row equally and returns a different (usually wrong) number than `SUM/SUM`. Call out the choice before writing the formula; "market share / rate / share of X" almost always wants `SUM/SUM`.
+3. **A share of a total: pick constant-under-filter or follows-the-marks deliberately.** `SUM([Sales]) / TOTAL(SUM([Sales]))` (table calc) recalculates to the filtered/visible set; `SUM([Sales]) / SUM({FIXED : SUM([Sales])})` holds the denominator constant under quick filters. Use `MIN`/`MAX`/`AVG`/`ATTR` (not `SUM`) to collapse a dimensionless `{FIXED : …}` grand-total constant, or a multi-row-per-mark denominator inflates by the row count.
+4. **A moving average / window of a ratio operates on the aggregated ratio, and addressing decides correctness.** Define the ratio as an aggregate (`SUM(num)/SUM(den)`), then apply the window over it: `WINDOW_AVG( SUM([Num]) / SUM([Den]), -2, 0 )` with Compute Using set explicitly along the date. Decide up front: *average of the periodic ratios* (window the ratio) vs *ratio of the moving sums* (`WINDOW_SUM(SUM([Num]),-2,0) / WINDOW_SUM(SUM([Den]),-2,0)`) — they differ.
+5. **Percent of total over a moving window = a windowed numerator over a total denominator, with stated addressing.** e.g. `WINDOW_SUM(SUM([Sales]), -11, 0) / TOTAL(SUM([Sales]))`. State the partition/addressing (which dimension the window runs along, which the total spans); the same formula with the wrong Compute Using is silently wrong. Pin the sort — running/window/rank calcs follow the view's sort order.
+6. **A grand total of a calc is recomputed, not summed.** By default Tableau's total uses **Automatic**: it re-evaluates the field over all underlying rows in the partition. For a plain additive measure that equals the column sum; for a **ratio or aggregate calc** it does NOT equal the sum of the displayed cells (a ratio's total is the ratio of the totals). To control it, use **Analysis → Totals → Total using** and pick the aggregation the total should use (Sum, Average, Automatic, …) per field.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **`AVG([a]/[b])` for a rate/share.** Averages row ratios instead of dividing the sums. Use `SUM([a]) / SUM([b])`.
+2. **Windowing a naive AVG-of-ratios.** A moving average built on an already-wrong row-ratio compounds the error. Fix the ratio to `SUM/SUM` first, then window it.
+3. **Leaving Compute Using on the default for a windowed/percent-of-total calc.** The default addressing may run the window along the wrong dimension. Set Specific Dimensions and verify; pin the view's sort.
+4. **Expecting a ratio's grand total to be the sum of the visible percentages.** It won't be — the total recomputes the ratio over all rows. Use Total using (Sum) only when summing the displayed values is actually meaningful (it isn't for a ratio).
+5. **`SUM({FIXED : SUM([Sales])})` as a denominator on multi-row data.** The dimensionless constant is replicated per row and re-summed, inflating the denominator. Collapse it with `MIN`/`MAX`/`AVG`/`ATTR`.
+6. **A Top-N/dimension filter shrinking a grand total you wanted whole.** A dimension filter removes rows before totals; use an `INDEX()`/`RANK()` table-calc filter (runs after totals) to "display few, total all."
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. Classify the metric: ratio (rate/share), windowed aggregate (moving avg, % of total over a window), or total of a calc.
+2. For a ratio, author `SUM([Numerator]) / SUM([Denominator])`; state whether the denominator should stay constant under filters (LOD) or follow the marks (`TOTAL`).
+3. For a window over a ratio, define the ratio as an aggregate first, then wrap it in `WINDOW_AVG`/`WINDOW_SUM` and set Compute Using explicitly; decide average-of-ratios vs ratio-of-sums.
+4. For percent-of-total over a moving window, combine the windowed numerator with the total denominator and pin both the addressing and the sort.
+5. For a grand total that "doesn't add up," open Analysis → Totals → Total using and set the intended aggregation per field; remember Automatic recomputes rather than summing.
+6. Validate on real rows: a calc that renders is not necessarily aggregating at the intended grain — check the number, not just the chart.

+# Filters Don't Automatically Cross a Data Blend — Linking Fields, Secondary-Source Filters & Filter Actions
+
+In a data blend, filters are scoped to **one data source at a time**. A quick filter or a filter action built on the primary source does NOT automatically narrow a blended secondary source unless the filtered field is an active **linking field**. This is why "filters not applied to the secondary source" and "filter action across blended sources does nothing" are the two most common blend-interactivity failures — and why the durable fix is usually a relationship, not a blend.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Explains why filters and filter actions do not propagate across a blend (per-source scope + linking-field grain), how to make the shared field a linking field or filter the secondary directly, and when to move to a relationship so propagation is automatic.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: data-blending, blend, secondary-source, primary-source, linking-fields, filter-action, cross-source-filter, filter-propagation, relationships-vs-blend, chain-link
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "action filter with blended data sources", "filter action across two data sources", "filters not applied to secondary data sources when non-filtered fields are shared", "filters not applied to the secondary data source", "quick filter doesn't affect the blended secondary source", "filter on primary not filtering secondary", "how do I make a filter apply to both data sources", "blend linking fields", "secondary source ignores my filter", "cross-source filter action", "data blending filter propagation", "filter across primary and secondary source", "non-linking field filter not shared"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this when a view combines two data sources by **blending** (a primary source plus a secondary source joined on shared linking fields, shown with the chain-link icon in the Data pane) and an interaction isn't propagating:
+
+- A quick filter (or dashboard filter) on a primary field leaves the secondary source's numbers unchanged.
+- A filter **action** originating from a blended sheet does nothing to a target that reads the secondary source.
+- You need one control to scope both sources at once.
+
+If the requirement is really "combine these tables so everything filters together," the honest answer is often *don't blend* — model it as a relationship. See the Best Practices and the datasource-strategy companion.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Know what a blend actually does.** The primary source drives the view. The secondary source is **aggregated to the grain of the active linking field(s)** and left-joined onto the primary in that view only. Because each source is queried separately, a filter belongs to exactly one source's query.
+2. **A primary filter reaches the secondary only through a linking field.** If the filtered dimension is an **active linking field** (the chain link is engaged in this sheet), filtering its members restricts which secondary rows join, so the secondary appears to filter. Filtering a **non-linking** primary field does not touch the secondary query at all — this is the R088 root cause.
+3. **To filter the secondary directly, filter the secondary's own field.** Add a filter using the secondary source's copy of the field (select the secondary source in the Data pane first). Each source carries its own filter; there is no shared filter object across a blend.
+4. **To make a shared field propagate, activate it as a linking field.** In the secondary source, click the gray chain-link next to the shared dimension so it turns active (or set the blend relationship under Data → Edit Blend Relationships). Then a primary filter on that field scopes the secondary.
+5. **For click-to-filter interactivity across sources, prefer relationships.** A **filter action** targets fields in a specific data source; across a blend it only affects a target's secondary when the action's source field maps to an active linking dimension there. This is fragile. If cross-source interactivity is the goal, combine the tables with a **relationship** (a single logical data source, 2020.2+) so quick filters and filter actions propagate normally — that is the R056 fix.
+6. **Reserve blends for the case they're good at:** a secondary source at a *different, coarser grain* (e.g. targets/quotas by Region) that you only need aggregated onto the primary. Don't blend just to combine two same-grain tables — relate or join them.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Expecting a primary quick filter to filter the secondary.** It won't, unless the filtered field is an active linking field. Filter the secondary's own field, or activate the link.
+2. **Building a filter action across a blend and assuming it flows to the secondary.** The action scopes one source; the target's secondary only responds when the action field is an active linking dimension there.
+3. **Blending two same-grain tables that should be related.** Blends can't do LOD across sources, always aggregate the secondary, and can't be published as one governed source — a relationship avoids all three limits.
+4. **Filtering on a linking field but leaving the link inactive** in that sheet — the chain must be engaged for the scope to carry.
+5. **Assuming secondary measures behave like primary measures.** Secondary measures are always aggregated (you cannot use them at row level, and no LOD expression can cross the blend).
+
+## Implementation in Tableau Desktop
+
+Scenario A — a filter on the primary is not affecting the blended secondary (R088):
+
+1. Identify whether the filtered field is an **active linking field** in this sheet (chain-link engaged next to it in the secondary source).
+2. If it is not, either (a) add a filter on the **secondary source's own** copy of that field, or (b) activate the shared field as a linking field so the primary filter scopes the secondary.
+3. Re-check the secondary numbers after applying; a blend filter that "does nothing" almost always means you filtered a non-linking field.
+
+Scenario B — a filter action needs to work across blended sources (R056):
+
+1. Confirm the action's **source field** exists as an **active linking dimension** on the target that reads the secondary; only then can the action scope that secondary.
+2. If it does not map cleanly (different grain, non-linking field), stop blending for this case and **model a relationship** instead: relate the two tables on their key, so the combined source is one logical data source where quick filters and filter actions propagate to every table automatically.
+3. Validate by triggering the interaction and reading the target back — the secondary marks should change; if only the primary changes, the action isn't reaching the secondary.
+
+Rule of thumb: **blend for aggregate-only, different-grain secondaries; relate/join when you need filters, actions, or LOD to cross the boundary.**

+# Calc Caption Must Follow a Formula Rebind → a Human Caption Left Untouched Becomes a Lie
+
+When a template calc's FORMULA field-refs are remapped during apply (template field → the user's actual bound field), the calc's **human-readable `caption` must be updated too** — otherwise the caption keeps naming the OLD fields while the formula now computes over the NEW ones. The apply "completes," the math is correct, but the label lies. Two calcs can even end up with the **same caption and different formulas**.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: A calc column carries both a `<calculation formula>` and a human `caption`. When field-reference rewriting remaps the formula's inputs to different bound fields, a caption with no bracket token is left verbatim by the auto-name path, so the visible name no longer matches the math. Root-caused live from a Ben Hart dogfood repro (2026-07-10).
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: calculated-field, calc-caption, caption-stale, formula-rebind, field-ref-rewrite, misleading-label, duplicate-caption, profit-ratio, template-apply, correlation-scatter, heatmap, per-apply-namespacing, honest-caption
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "two fields with the same name but different formulas", "the heatmap color and text are different calculations both called the same thing", "calc caption says Profit Ratio but the formula divides by Discount", "template calc label is wrong after binding to my data", "why do I have two Profit Ratio fields", "the calculated field name doesn't match its formula after apply", "caption not updated when formula rebound"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Reach for this when a template applies onto the user's data and the calc **renders with correct math but a misleading name** — most visibly, two calcs sharing one caption with divergent formulas (the Ben Hart *Profit Ratio* repro: one calc `SUM([Profit])/SUM([Sales])`, another `SUM([Profit])/SUM([Discount])`, both captioned `Profit Ratio`, one on the heatmap color and one on its text).
+
+Distinguish from the two shadow variants:
+
+- **Formula is DROPPED, stale one kept** (calc-name == existing calc) → renders, wrong math → `calc-formula-shadowed-by-stale-datasource-calc.md`.
+- **Calc IGNORED entirely** (calc-name == real data column) → blank viz → `calc-name-collides-with-field.md`.
+- **This entry** → formula is CORRECT (field-refs were rebound as intended) but the **caption** was left naming the pre-rebind fields → misleading label, not wrong numbers.
+
+The tell that separates this from the shadow variants: the math is right; only the human name is wrong.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **When a formula's field-refs are remapped, re-derive the caption in lockstep** — but ONLY for captions that are safe to rewrite. Skip captions that already carry a `[` bracket token (those are handled by the auto-name caption path); act on bracket-free human captions like `Profit Ratio`.
+2. **Derive honestly, in priority order:** (a) whole-word-replace the old field names with the new inside the existing caption (`Profit / Sales` → `Profit / Discount`); else (b) humanize the rewritten formula if it's short and plain (strip `AGG([X])`→`X`, drop brackets, space operators) — `SUM([Profit])/SUM([Discount])` → `Profit / Discount`; else (c) append the distinct new field names in parens to the original caption (`Profit Ratio (Discount)`) rather than fabricate a name.
+3. **Identity binds keep their caption.** If nothing was remapped (the template field bound to the same-named field), leave the caption verbatim — do not churn it.
+4. **This REFINES the "keep captions human-readable" rule** from `calc-formula-shadowed-by-stale-datasource-calc.md`. Per-apply NAME namespacing (the `_tpl_<hash>` suffix) still must not touch the caption. But that rule assumed the formula's meaning was unchanged. A formula *rebind* changes the meaning, so the caption is no longer a safe human constant — it must track the rebind.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Leaving a bracket-free caption verbatim after a rebind.** `caption='Profit Ratio'` on a template calc whose formula was `SUM([Profit])/SUM([Sales])` and got rebound to `SUM([Profit])/SUM([Discount])`. The apply completes; the field now measures profit-over-discount but still reads "Profit Ratio". On a chart that uses the template's original calc AND the rebound one (heatmap color vs. text), you get two "Profit Ratio" fields with different math — "not something I'd call correct, but within the normal range of wrong" (Ben Hart, 2026-07-10).
+2. **Over-rewriting the caption on an identity bind.** If Sales bound to Sales, do not touch `Profit Ratio` — deriving a caption when nothing changed just churns labels.
+3. **Rewriting a caption that already contains `[` brackets here.** Those are auto-named captions that mirror formula syntax; they're owned by the separate bracket-caption path. Touching them from the rebind path double-rewrites.
+
+## Implementation in Tableau Desktop
+
+WRONG — formula rebound, caption left stale (produces the duplicate-name defect):
+
+```xml
+<!-- template calc, before apply: -->
+<column caption='Profit Ratio' name='[Calculation_l]' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='SUM([Profit])/SUM([Sales])' />
+</column>
+<!-- user binds Sales -> Discount. Formula field-refs are remapped correctly,
+     but the caption is left verbatim: -->
+<column caption='Profit Ratio' name='[Calculation_l]' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='SUM([Profit])/SUM([Discount])' />
+</column>
+<!-- → correct math, misleading label. Alongside the template's original
+     Profit Ratio, the data pane / heatmap now shows two 'Profit Ratio' calcs. -->
+```
+
+RIGHT — caption tracks the rebind:
+
+```xml
+<column caption='Profit / Discount' name='[Calculation_l]' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='SUM([Profit])/SUM([Discount])' />
+</column>
+<!-- caption derived: humanized rewritten formula 'Profit / Discount' (short, plain).
+     Had the original caption been e.g. 'Profit / Sales', whole-word replace would
+     yield 'Profit / Discount' directly. On an identity bind, caption stays verbatim. -->
+```
+
+The substitution layer does this automatically: in `replaceFieldReferences` (`src/lockstep-core/fieldReferenceRewriter.ts`, step "3b"), after `rewriteFormulaFieldRefs` changes a `<calculation formula>`, `deriveRemappedCalcCaption` recomputes the owning column's `caption` when it has no `[` token, via the three-tier derivation above; it returns `null` (no change) when nothing was remapped. This runs before the pre-existing bracket-caption path ("3b-ii"), which only touches `[..]`-bearing captions — the two are non-overlapping. Confirmed against the `correlation-scatter-plot-chart.xml` template (regression: `src/server/tools/templates.test.ts`, "calc caption follows formula rebind (Ben test1 regression)").
+
+**What does NOT work / residual gap:** an identity bind onto a datasource that ALREADY carries an equivalent calc still produces a harmless duplicate caption — correct math, confusing label — because per-apply namespacing always mints a fresh `_tpl_` calc instead of detecting and reusing an existing equivalent one. That's a deliberate post-MVP deferral (it conflicts with the anti-shadow rename's purpose and needs formula-equivalence detection), not covered by this fix.

+
+**⇒ Wrong-fork check (live Desktop):** CREATING a calculated field on a running Tableau Desktop? Do NOT hand-edit workbook XML with these patterns — author it with the author-calc verb (author-parameter / author-set first when the calc depends on them), then chart the authored caption. Last resort, only when no authoring verb or template can express the structure: round-trip the REAL document with the workbook document read/apply tools and let Tableau's parser validate the reload — never fabricate XML fragments from memory. This module's XML patterns are for file-mode workbook authoring and for READING what a calc looks like.
+
+**⇒ Wrong-fork check:** assigning GROUP MEMBERSHIP (tag rows Top/Bottom/Everyone-Else to color or drive a click action)? Don't hand-roll `IF RANK(...) <= [param] THEN "Top"...` — swapping RANK for `INDEX()`/`FIRST()`/`LAST()` is the SAME wrong turn. That's a **SET**, not a calc (sets ARE parameter-driven in XML — `count='[Parameters].[N]'` re-ranks live).

+## Calculated fields
+
+Calculated fields are `column` nodes on the **data datasource** with a `calculation` child:
+
+```xml
+<column name="[Calculation_1350661989330946]"
+        role="dimension"
+        caption="Is Selected Genre?"
+        type="nominal"
+        datatype="boolean">
+  <calculation formula="[Parameters].[Parameter 1350661988413441] = [Top Level Genre]"
+               class="tableau" />
+</column>
+```
+
+**Critical rules:**
+- `name` must use auto-generated format `[Calculation_<digits>]` — literal `Calculation`, **one** underscore, then a single contiguous run of digits, and nothing else. The digits are an opaque unique ID; any unique integer works as long as it's one unbroken run (a timestamp written as contiguous digits `[Calculation_20260407120000]`, a random, or a sequential id are all valid). Custom names like `[Is Selected Genre]` are invalid and will fail outright. **The failure mode is a SECOND underscore, not the use of a timestamp**: `[Calculation_20260407_001]` (any `[Calculation_<digits>_<suffix>]`) — the XML parser accepts it and the field shows in `list-available-fields`, but Tableau's formula-validation UI layer treats the name as malformed and flags the field "invalid" in the Data pane even when the formula compiled fine. So: one underscore + one digit run = valid (timestamps fine); any second underscore = invalid.
+- Use `[Parameters].[Parameter <id>]` to reference a parameter in a formula — **NOT** the caption name.
+- **Formulas reference fields by their internal `<column>` `name` attribute, never by caption.** Authoring a formula as `SUM([Sales])` against a datasource whose Sales column has `name='[M_Q1_SLS]' caption='Sales'` will fail: `[Sales]` is not a real internal name there. The UI's formula editor *displays* internal `[Calculation_<digits>]` names as their captions for readability, but the stored XML and the query-time resolution both operate on internal names. Author formulas with internal names directly: `SUM([M_Q1_SLS])`.
+  - **Why this gets confused**: in Tableau Public's Superstore-style datasets, physical columns have `name='[Sales]' caption='Sales'` — name and caption are literally the same string. Formulas that look like `SUM([Sales])` there aren't resolving a caption; they're referencing the internal name which coincidentally equals it. This apparent "captions work" pattern is a coincidence of Superstore's schema, not a rule.
+  - **Calc-to-calc references**: use the other calc's `[Calculation_<digits>]` internal name. Tableau Public's own workbooks use this form: `SUM({COUNTD([Calculation_607915613117825032])})`.
+- Dependent calc fields: if the formula references other fields (e.g. `[Ship Mode]`, `[Order Date]`), those fields must also have column defs in `datasource-dependencies`, even if they're not on rows/cols/encodings
+
+---
+
+## LOD-legal aggregates: don't default to table calcs
+
+Before reaching for a table calc, check whether the aggregate you want is LOD-legal. Over the Tableau release history the set of aggregates usable inside `{ FIXED/INCLUDE/EXCLUDE … : AGG(expr) }` has grown well beyond the classic `SUM / AVG / MIN / MAX / COUNT / COUNTD`. Using an LOD keeps the calc row-level-evaluable and removes the "must have the partitioning dimension on Detail" constraint that a table calc imposes.
+
+**Confirmed LOD-legal aggregates (not exhaustive — verify against the target Tableau version):**
+`SUM`, `AVG`, `MIN`, `MAX`, `COUNT`, `COUNTD`, `ATTR`, `VAR`, `VARP`, `STDEV`, `STDEVP`, `MEDIAN`, **`PERCENTILE` (since 2020.2)**, `CORR`, `COVAR`, `COVARP`.
+
+### `PERCENTILE` inside LODs replaces `NTILE(k)` table calcs
+
+SQL `NTILE(5) OVER (ORDER BY x DESC)` has no direct function equivalent in Tableau, and the common table-calc workaround (`CEILING(5.0 * INDEX() / SIZE())`) only resolves correctly when the partitioning dimension (e.g. `[Customer ID]`) is explicitly on the Detail shelf. The nested-LOD-PERCENTILE pattern avoids that entirely — the calc becomes a row-level attribute that works anywhere.
+
+**Top-down quintile (higher metric = higher quintile), e.g. Monetary (R)FM:**
+```
+IF [Monetary (Sales)] >= { FIXED : PERCENTILE({ FIXED [Customer ID] : SUM([Sales]) }, 0.8) } THEN 5
+ELSEIF [Monetary (Sales)] >= { FIXED : PERCENTILE({ FIXED [Customer ID] : SUM([Sales]) }, 0.6) } THEN 4
+ELSEIF [Monetary (Sales)] >= { FIXED : PERCENTILE({ FIXED [Customer ID] : SUM([Sales]) }, 0.4) } THEN 3
+ELSEIF [Monetary (Sales)] >= { FIXED : PERCENTILE({ FIXED [Customer ID] : SUM([Sales]) }, 0.2) } THEN 2
+ELSE 1 END
+```
+
+**Bottom-up quintile (lower metric = higher quintile), e.g. Recency:**
+```
+IF [Recency (Days)] <= { FIXED : PERCENTILE({ FIXED [Customer ID] : DATEDIFF('day', MAX([Order Date]), TODAY()) }, 0.2) } THEN 5
+ELSEIF [Recency (Days)] <= { FIXED : PERCENTILE(..., 0.4) } THEN 4
+...
+ELSE 1 END
+```
+
+**Why the nested FIXED matters:** the inner `{ FIXED [Customer ID] : … }` collapses each customer to a single row before the percentile is taken. Without it — e.g. `{ FIXED : PERCENTILE([Sales], 0.8) }` — customers with many transactions get over-weighted in the distribution, and the cutoffs shift toward heavy buyers. You almost always want the distribution at the *entity* grain, not the transaction grain.
+
+**Semantic gotcha vs SQL `NTILE`:** `NTILE(k)` splits ties deterministically by row position to force exactly 1/k of rows into each bucket. PERCENTILE-cutoff comparisons put tied values in the same bucket, so bucket sizes can drift slightly when many entities share a value (common in frequency or rating distributions). For RFM / segmentation this is usually the better behavior — identical entities get identical treatment — but if you need exact parity with an upstream `NTILE` reference, that parity isn't achievable via PERCENTILE alone; fall back to the `INDEX()/SIZE()` table-calc pattern with the partition dimension on Detail.
+
+**Heuristic:** if you're tempted to suggest a table calc because "Tableau doesn't have function X in LOD," first verify against the current LOD-legal list above. `PERCENTILE` was the specific miss that motivated this note — quintile / decile / Nth-percentile-cutoff logic is frequently reached-for, and the row-level LOD form is strictly better than the table-calc form when it's available.

+
+## Round-trip normalization
+
+Tableau rewrites calc-field XML on save (caption→internal-name, re-sort, re-quote). Author formulas with **internal names** (`SUM([M_Q1_SLS])`) not captions to avoid transient Data-pane "invalid" flags. Full reference: `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/round-trip-normalization`.
+
+## Inline calculated fields in `datasource-dependencies`
+
+Calculated fields can be defined **per-worksheet** inside `datasource-dependencies` without modifying the main datasource node. These are scoped to the worksheet and use simplified names (no `Calculation_<id>` required at this level).
+
+```xml
+<column name="[Calc_ContentType]"
+        caption="Content Type"
+        role="dimension"
+        type="nominal"
+        datatype="string">
+  <calculation formula="IF ISNULL([master_metadata_track_name]) THEN 'Podcast' ELSE 'Music' END"
+               class="tableau" />
+</column>
+```
+
+Matching column-instance (prefix `usr:`, derivation `User` for calcs; or `none:` / `derivation="None"` for nominal calcs):
+```xml
+<column-instance name="[none:Calc_ContentType:nk]"
+                 column="[Calc_ContentType]"
+                 derivation="None"
+                 pivot="key"
+                 type="nominal" />
+```
+
+Works for: `IF/ELSEIF/ELSE`, `CONTAINS()`, `ISNULL()`, string manipulation, and arithmetic on existing fields. The formula references raw field names `[field_name]` (not column-instance names).
+
+**CONTAINS-based grouping pattern** (e.g. platform normalization):
+```
+IF CONTAINS(LOWER([platform]), "android") THEN "Mobile"
+ELSEIF CONTAINS(LOWER([platform]), "ios") THEN "Mobile"
+ELSEIF CONTAINS(LOWER([platform]), "windows") THEN "Desktop"
+ELSE "Other"
+END
+```
+
+---
+
+## Parameters
+
+Parameters live in the dedicated **`Parameters` datasource** (separate from the data datasource):
+
+```xml
+<datasource name="Parameters" version="18.1" inline="true" hasconnection="false">
+  <aliases enabled="yes" />
+  <column role="measure"
+          caption="Top Level Genre Parameter"
+          value="&quot;Alternative&quot;"
+          type="nominal"
+          name="[Parameter 1350661988413441]"
+          datatype="string"
+          param-domain-type="list">
+    <calculation formula="&quot;Alternative&quot;" class="tableau" />
+    <members>
+      <member value="&quot;Alternative&quot;" />
+      <member value="&quot;Pop&quot;" />
+    </members>
+  </column>
+</datasource>
+```
+
+**Key rules:**
+- `name` format: `[Parameter <large-integer>]` — use a unique large integer
+- `value` and `calculation formula` both hold the default value (XML-escaped double-quoted string for string params: `&quot;Alternative&quot;`)
+- `param-domain-type`: `"list"` for enumerated values, `"range"` for numeric range, `"any"` for free entry
+- `members` children list allowed values — string values are double-quoted (XML-escaped)
+- `role` is always `"measure"` regardless of data type
+- **NEVER modify the Parameters datasource unless explicitly asked** — it is a Critical Rule in SKILL.md
+
+---
+
+## Parameter control on a worksheet
+
+To show a parameter control on a worksheet, add a **`right` edge** to the window's `cards` node:
+
+```xml
+<cards>
+  <edge name="right">
+    <strip size="160">
+      <card mode="compact" type="parameter" param="[Parameters].[Parameter 1350661988413441]" />
+    </strip>
+  </edge>
+</cards>
+```
+
+- Goes on the **`right` edge** of the window's cards — not `left`
+- Card type is `"parameter"` (singular)
+- `mode="compact"` shows the compact control
+- `param` = `[Parameters].[Parameter <id>]`
+
+---
+
+## Count of records / table count field
+
+The built-in count field uses an internal object ID pattern:
+
+```xml
+<!-- Column def -->
+<column name="[__tableau_internal_object_id__].[Orders_ECFCA1FB690A41FE803BC071773BA862]"
+        caption="Orders"
+        role="measure"
+        type="quantitative"
+        datatype="table" />
+
+<!-- Column-instance -->
+<column-instance name="[__tableau_internal_object_id__].[cnt:Orders_ECFCA1FB690A41FE803BC071773BA862:qk]"
+                 column="[__tableau_internal_object_id__].[Orders_ECFCA1FB690A41FE803BC071773BA862]"
+                 pivot="key"
+                 type="quantitative"
+                 derivation="Count" />
+```
+
+In `cols`/`rows` content (includes datasource prefix):
+```
+[Sample - Superstore].[__tableau_internal_object_id__].[cnt:Orders_ECFCA1FB690A41FE803BC071773BA862:qk]
+```
+
+The internal ID suffix is workbook-specific — inspect your datasource to find the correct value with `get-workbook-xml`.
+
+---
+
+## Percent of Total table calculation
+
+Add a second column-instance for the same field with:
+- Name prefix changed: `cnt:` → `pcto:cnt:` (pattern: `pcto:{original-ci-name}`)
+- A `table-calc` child node
+
+```xml
+<column-instance name="[__tableau_internal_object_id__].[pcto:cnt:Orders_ECFCA1FB690A41FE803BC071773BA862:qk]"
+                 column="[__tableau_internal_object_id__].[Orders_ECFCA1FB690A41FE803BC071773BA862]"
+                 pivot="key"
+                 type="quantitative"
+                 derivation="Count">
+  <table-calc type="PctTotal" ordering-type="Rows" />
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+Reference in a `text` encoding:
+```xml
+<text column="[DS].[__tableau_internal_object_id__].[pcto:cnt:Field:qk]" />
+```
+
+---
+
+## Customized tooltips
+
+Tooltips are defined via a `customized-tooltip` node — **direct child of `pane`** (sibling to `mark`, `encodings`, etc.):
+
+```xml
+<customized-tooltip show-buttons="false">
+  <formatted-text>
+    <run fontsize="20" fontalignment="1" bold="true" fontcolor="#4e79a7">&lt;[DS].[none:Artist Name(s):nk]&gt;</run>
+    <run fontalignment="1">&#198;
+</run>
+    <run fontalignment="1" fontcolor="#757575">Avg. Danceability: </run>
+    <run fontalignment="1" bold="true">&lt;[DS].[avg:Danceability:qk]&gt;</run>
+  </formatted-text>
+</customized-tooltip>
+```
+
+**`run` attrs:**
+| `attr` | Notes |
+|---|---|
+| `fontsize` | Point size as string, e.g. `"20"`, `"12"` |
+| `fontalignment` | `"1"` = center; `"0"` = left; `"2"` = right |
+| `bold` | `"true"` |
+| `italic` | `"true"` |
+| `fontcolor` | Hex string e.g. `"#4e79a7"` |
+| content | Static text OR field value in angle brackets: `<[DS].[column-instance]>` (XML-escaped as `&lt;...&gt;`) |
+
+**Line breaks:** Use a `run` with a literal newline in its text content.
+
+**Field references:** Wrap in angle brackets (XML-escaped): `&lt;[DS].[none:Field:nk]&gt;`.
+
+`show-buttons="false"` hides the command buttons (View Data, etc.); omit or set `"true"` to show them.

+
+## Tableau Order of Operations
+
+Know this when debugging why filters and calculations interact unexpectedly:
+
+1. Extract Filters → 2. Data Source Filters → 3. **Context Filters** →
+4. Sets / Conditional Filters / Top N / **FIXED LOD** →
+5. Dimension Filters → 6. INCLUDE/EXCLUDE LOD →
+7. Measure Filters → 8. **Table Calculations** →
+9. **Table Calc Filters** → 10. Trend/Reference Lines
+
+Key implications:
+- **Context filters** (step 3) restrict data before FIXED LODs (step 4) — use to scope LOD calculations
+- **Table calc filters** (step 9) run after all aggregation — ideal for Top N via `INDEX() <= N`
+- Prefer **table calcs + context filters** over FIXED LODs for flexible analysis — FIXED LODs query the entire dataset regardless of regular filters
+
+---
+
+## RANK bump chart (rank on rows, time on cols)
+
+A bump chart shows ranking changes over time. RANK goes on discrete rows, a time dimension on cols, and a dimension (e.g. Sub-Category) on Path/Color to draw connecting lines.
+
+### Column definition (RANK calc with default table-calc)
+
+```xml
+<column caption="Sales Rank" datatype="integer" name="[Calculation_Rank]"
+        role="measure" type="quantitative">
+  <calculation class="tableau" formula="RANK(SUM([Sales]))">
+    <table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>
+  </calculation>
+</column>
+```
+
+### Column-instance (discrete ordinal, compute using specific field)
+
+```xml
+<column-instance column="[Calculation_Rank]" derivation="User"
+                 name="[usr:Calculation_Rank:ok:1]" pivot="key" type="ordinal">
+  <table-calc ordering-type="Field"
+              ordering-field="[federated.superstore001].[none:Sub-Category:nk]"/>
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+**Key points:**
+- The CI uses `type="ordinal"` (discrete) so rank positions are evenly spaced on the axis
+- `derivation="User"` and `usr:` prefix — required for all aggregate/table-calc fields
+- `ordering-field` in the CI's `table-calc` overrides the column-level `ordering-type="Rows"` — this sets "Compute Using: Sub-Category"
+- The `:ok:1` suffix — the `:1` part is assigned by Tableau; don't guess it. Use `get-worksheet-xml` after initial apply to discover the exact suffix
+
+### Shelf config
+
+```xml
+<rows>[DS].[usr:Calculation_Rank:ok:1]</rows>
+<cols>[DS].[yr:Order Date:ok]</cols>
+```
+
+With `mark class="Line"` and Sub-Category on Color/Detail, this renders a bump chart.
+
+---
+
+## WINDOW_* KPI sparkline table pattern
+
+A common pattern: rows of KPI metrics per dimension, with sparklines showing the trend over time.
+
+### Shelf structure
+
+```
+Rows: (Team / (KPI1 / KPI2 / ... / KPI_N)) * (sparkline_measure + end_mark_calc)
+Cols: continuous_date (e.g., [tdy:Timestamp:qk])
+```
+
+- `/` nests dimensions — Team is outer, KPIs are inner (each renders as a text header)
+- `*` creates a separate pane for the sparkline alongside the KPI text
+- `+` stacks measures on the same axis (dual-axis sparkline + end mark)
+
+### KPI calc formulas (all use `<table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>`)
+
+```
+Total:           WINDOW_SUM(COUNT([records]))
+Highest:         WINDOW_MAX(COUNT([records]))
+Lowest:          WINDOW_MIN(COUNT([records]))
+Average:         WINDOW_AVG(COUNT([records]))
+Most Recent:     IF ATTR([Date]) = WINDOW_MAX(MAX([Date])) THEN COUNT([records]) END
+Previous Period: WINDOW_MAX(IF INDEX()=SIZE()-1 THEN COUNT([records]) END)
+Variance:        [Most Recent] - [Previous Period]
+```
+
+### Critical XML patterns
+
+1. **KPI column-instances use `:ok` (ordinal) type** — renders as discrete text headers, not continuous axes:
+   ```xml
+   <column-instance column="[Calc_Total]" derivation="User" name="[usr:Calc_Total:ok]" pivot="key" type="ordinal">
+     <table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>
+   </column-instance>
+   ```
+
+2. **Sparkline column-instances use `:qk` (quantitative) type** — renders as continuous axis:
+   ```xml
+   <column-instance column="[Records]" derivation="Count" name="[cnt:Records:qk]" pivot="key" type="quantitative"/>
+   ```
+
+3. **Chained table calcs need nested `<table-calc field="...">` references:**
+   ```xml
+   <column-instance column="[Calc_Variance]" derivation="User" name="[usr:Calc_Variance:ok]" pivot="key" type="ordinal">
+     <table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>
+     <table-calc field="[datasource].[Calc_MostRecent]" ordering-type="Rows"/>
+     <table-calc field="[datasource].[Calc_PrevPeriod]" ordering-type="Rows"/>
+   </column-instance>
+   ```
+
+4. **Multiple panes with different mark types:**
+   - Default pane: `mark="Automatic"` — KPI text
+   - Pane 2: `mark="Circle"` — end mark dot (y-axis = end mark calc)
+   - Pane 3: `mark="Automatic"` (line) — sparkline (y-axis = COUNT)
+   
+   Each pane gets `minheight`/`maxheight` for consistent row sizing.
+
+5. **Axis hiding for sparkline panes:**
+   ```xml
+   <style-rule element="axis">
+     <format attr="display" class="0" field="[datasource].[usr:EndMark:qk]" scope="rows" value="false"/>
+   </style-rule>
+   ```
+
+---
+
+## Data densification with INDEX() (null-aware aggregation)
+
+When building crosstabs or heatmaps that must show **all dimension combinations** — including those with no data — standard Tableau filters remove the empty rows entirely. This breaks averages because the denominator excludes items with no activity.
+
+### The INDEX() trick
+
+Place an `INDEX()` table calculation on the **Detail shelf**. This forces Tableau to generate a mark for every cell in the dimension cross-product, even where the underlying measure is null. Combined with `ZN()` (Zero if Null), this converts missing values to 0 and makes averages include all dimension members.
+
+### Pattern
+
+1. **Create an INDEX() calc field:**
+```xml
+<column caption="Index" datatype="integer" name="[Calculation_Index]"
+        role="measure" type="quantitative">
+  <calculation class="tableau" formula="INDEX()">
+    <table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>
+  </calculation>
+</column>
+```
+
+2. **Create a null-safe measure:**
+```
+ZN(COUNTD(IF [Order Date] >= [pMinDate] AND [Order Date] <= [pMaxDate]
+          THEN [Order ID] END))
+```
+The `ZN()` wrapper converts nulls (from densified empty cells) to 0.
+
+3. **Place INDEX() on Detail shelf** and the null-safe measure on Text/Color.
+
+4. **Use parameter-based filtering** (not standard quick filters) to control the date range. Standard filters remove dimension values from the viz; parameters with an IF condition in the measure preserve all dimension members.
+
+### Why this works
+
+- `INDEX()` on Detail creates a mark for every intersection of the dimensions on Rows × Columns
+- Tableau's mark generation fills in the gaps that would otherwise be absent
+- `ZN()` turns the resulting nulls into 0
+- Subtotals then compute correct averages across ALL members, not just those with data
+
+### Key distinction: filter types and their effect on densification
+
+| Filter type | Effect on dimensions | Effect on FIXED LODs |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Standard dimension filter** | Removes filtered-out values from viz | Ignored by FIXED |
+| **Context filter** | Removes filtered-out values from viz | Respected by FIXED |
+| **Parameter + IF in calc** | All values remain visible; measure returns null/0 for excluded rows | No effect (no filter applied) |
+
+**For null-aware averages, use parameter-based filtering** — it preserves all dimension members in the viz while controlling what data is counted.
+
+---
+
+## Per-partition Top N (Rank on Rows pattern)
+
+When showing Top N items **per partition** (e.g., top 10 sub-categories per month), do NOT put the dimension on Rows — that creates a union of all partitions' items. Instead: **put rank on Rows, dimension on Label**.
+
+**Step 1:** Add an `INDEX()` calculated field. Tableau stores a `table-calc` node **inside the `calculation` child** (not just in the CI):
+```xml
+<column name="[Calculation_Rank]" caption="Rank"
+        role="measure" type="ordinal" datatype="integer">
+  <calculation formula="INDEX()" class="tableau">
+    <table-calc ordering-type="Rows" />
+  </calculation>
+</column>
+```
+
+**Step 2:** Add **two column-instances** in `datasource-dependencies` — one discrete (Rows), one continuous (Filter). Use `ordering-field=""` (not `level-address`) in the CI's `table-calc`:
+```xml
+<!-- Discrete (ordinal) — goes on Rows shelf -->
+<column-instance name="[usr:Calculation_Rank:ok:1]" column="[Calculation_Rank]"
+                 pivot="key" type="ordinal" derivation="User">
+  <table-calc ordering-type="Field" ordering-field="" />
+</column-instance>
+
+<!-- Continuous (quantitative) — goes on Filter shelf -->
+<column-instance name="[usr:Calculation_Rank:qk]" column="[Calculation_Rank]"
+                 pivot="key" type="quantitative" derivation="User">
+  <table-calc ordering-type="Field" ordering-field="" />
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+**Step 3:** Configure the worksheet:
+- **Rows:** `[DS].[usr:Calculation_Rank:ok:1]` (discrete — creates rank partitions 1, 2, 3…)
+- **Cols:** `([DS].[tmn:Order Date:ok] * [DS].[sum:Sales:qk])` (month × measure)
+- **Label encoding:** `[DS].[none:Sub-Category:nk]` (the dimension on Label, NOT on Rows)
+- **Filter:** quantitative range on the continuous rank CI:
+
+```xml
+<filter column="[DatasourceName].[usr:Calculation_Rank:qk]"
+        class="quantitative"
+        included-values="in-range">
+  <max>10</max>
+</filter>
+```
+
+**`slices` required for table calc filter CI:** Add a `slices` node in `view` referencing the continuous CI — same as for categorical dimension filters. Without it, the filter CI may be stripped:
+```xml
+<slices>
+  <column>[DS].[usr:Calculation_Rank:qk]</column>
+</slices>
+```
+
+**Why quantitative filter on continuous CI:** A quantitative filter on an ordinal CI is invalid. The discrete CI (`:ok:`) is for shelf placement; the continuous CI (`:qk`) is for range comparisons. The filter CI may have no numeric suffix.
+
+**Table calc config note:** The `:N` suffix on column-instance names varies (`:1`, `:2`, `:4` or none) — don't assume `:2`. Always check real workbook output. `ordering-type` values: `None` | `Rows` | `Columns` | `Table` | `Pane` | `Field`.
+
+---
+
+## Translating SQL to Tableau Calculations
+
+When refactoring a custom SQL datasource to native tables, SQL-computed columns become Tableau calculated fields. The full translation reference (FIXED LOD vs. table calc choice, scalar/window function maps, NTILE alternatives, nested LOD patterns, XML formula escaping) lives in its own module: see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/sql-translation`. The datasource-refactor workflow itself (`object-graph` + `relationships`) is in `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/datasources`.
+
+**Default translation rules:** `GROUP BY` → FIXED LOD; `OVER (...)` → table calc with explicit Compute Using; scalar expression → scalar function; `CASE` → `IF/ELSEIF/ELSE`. For exact `NTILE(k)` semantics (equal-count buckets) prefer the LOD `PERCENTILE` cutoff pattern documented in this file's "LOD-legal aggregates" section.
+
+---
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this module when you need to:
+- **Add a calculated field** to an existing datasource (e.g. profit ratio, date difference, string categorization)
+- **Translate SQL expressions** to Tableau calculated fields during datasource refactoring
+- **Set up a parameter** with a list or range of allowed values that a calculated field references
+- **Configure a table calculation** (running total, rank, percent of total, moving average) with specific Compute Using settings
+- **Apply a Top N filter per partition** (rank on rows + quantitative filter pattern)
+- **Debug unexpected filter/calc interactions** — refer to the Tableau Order of Operations section
+
+If you only need to place a field on shelves without any calculation logic, see `expertise://tableau/tactics/viz/worksheets` instead.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Use timestamped calc names**: `[Calculation_20260303120000_001]` prevents collisions across sessions. Never use plain names like `[My Calc]` or `[R Score]` — Tableau silently rejects them and shows a red error in the data pane even when the formula is valid.
+- **Datasource-level vs inline calc naming**: Datasource-level calc columns (direct children of `<datasource>`) should always use `[Calculation_<id>]` format. Inline calc columns inside `<datasource-dependencies>` can use shorter names like `[Calc_ContentType]`, but `[Calculation_*]` is always safe at both levels.
+- **Reference fields by raw name in formulas**: Use `[Sales]` not `[sum:Sales:qk]` inside `calculation.formula`. CI-format references are not valid formula syntax.
+- **Always declare calc field column-instances in datasource-dependencies**: Even if the calc is defined at the datasource level, the worksheet's `datasource-dependencies` must still list the column def and column-instance for any worksheet that uses it.
+- **Parameters are in their own datasource**: Never add parameter columns to the data datasource. Use the dedicated `Parameters` datasource (name = `"Parameters"`).
+- **Parameters must be referenced by a worksheet to survive round-trip**: The Agent API strips the Parameters datasource if no worksheet references it. To create a parameter programmatically: (1) Add the parameter `<column>` inside a `<datasource-dependencies datasource='Parameters'>` block in at least one worksheet's `<view>`, and (2) also add `<datasource name='Parameters' />` to that worksheet's `<datasources>` block.
+- **Calc fields with aggregations (COUNTD, SUM, etc.) must use `usr:` prefix**: The column-instance `name` must be `[usr:CalcName:qk]` with `derivation="User"`, NOT `[none:CalcName:qk]` with `derivation="None"`. Using `none:` on an aggregate calc causes the viz to render blank.
+- **Use context filters with FIXED LODs**: FIXED LOD calculations ignore regular dimension filters. Wrap the controlling filter in `context: "true"` to scope the LOD calculation.
+- **Table calc ordering-type matters**: `"Rows"` = Table (Down), `"Field"` + `ordering-field` = Compute Using a specific dimension. Always verify the `:N` suffix on the CI name by inspecting a working workbook.

+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Using the caption name in a formula**: `[Parameters].[Top Level Genre Parameter]` fails — use the internal name `[Parameters].[Parameter 1350661988413441]`.
+2. **Missing column def in datasource-dependencies**: A calc field defined at the datasource level still requires a duplicate `column` node in the worksheet's `datasource-dependencies`. Omitting it causes the field to be stripped.
+3. **Wrong `:N` suffix on table calc CI**: The suffix (`:1`, `:2`, `:4`) varies and cannot be guessed. Inspect a real workbook with `get-workbook-xml` after manually configuring the table calc in Tableau's UI.
+4. **Applying percent of total to the wrong base**: `pcto:sum:` for SUM base, `pcto:ctd:` for CountDistinct base, `pcto:cnt:` for Count base. Using the wrong prefix produces an empty column-instance.
+5. **Putting table-calc config in the column def**: The `table-calc` node goes inside the **column-instance** in `datasource-dependencies`, not inside the `calculation` child of the column def.
+6. **Forgetting `slices` for table calc filters**: When a table calc column-instance is used as a filter (quantitative range), a `slices` node must reference its CI — otherwise the filter is stripped on round-trip.
+7. **Using NTILE range-mapping for exact bucket counts**: Range-mapping creates equal-width buckets, not equal-count. For exact quintiles matching SQL NTILE, use RANK-based bucketing.
+8. **"Valid formula" but red error state in data pane**: This can happen when the datasource-level `column` `name` attribute uses a custom string (e.g., `[R Score]`) instead of the expected `[Calculation_<id>]` format. Tableau's formula editor validates the expression independently of the internal name, so it may report "The calculation is valid" while the field still shows a red exclamation. Fix: rename `name` to `[Calculation_<timestamp>_<seq>]` format and move the human-readable name to `caption`. Note: this is the **leading hypothesis** based on observed correlation — the symptom may also be caused by formula errors, missing datasource dependencies, stale caches, or other factors coincident with the non-standard name. Causation is not confirmed. The preflight validation in the MCP server logs a warning when it detects this pattern and captures artifacts for analysis; it does not block the apply.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+The general workflow for adding a calculated field and using it on a worksheet:
+
+1. **Add column def to datasource** — at the datasource level in `datasources`, add a `column` node with a `calculation` child.
+2. **Add column def + column-instance to datasource-dependencies** — every worksheet that uses the field needs both nodes in its `datasource-dependencies`.
+3. **Reference the CI on shelves/encodings** — use the full `[DS].[ci:field:type]` format in `rows`, `cols`, or encoding `column` attrs.
+4. **For table calcs**: Add a `table-calc` child to the column-instance in `datasource-dependencies`. Configure `ordering-type` and `ordering-field` or `level-address` as needed.
+5. **Submit and verify**: Use `apply-workbook`, then worksheet-list readback to confirm the sheet loaded. Use `get-workbook-xml` to inspect the round-tripped result and check whether all nodes survived.
+
+---
+
+## PctTotal on CountDistinct base (`pcto:ctd:`)
+
+When applying Percent of Total to a **CountDistinct** measure, the column-instance prefix is `pcto:ctd:` (not `pcto:sum:`):
+
+```xml
+<column-instance name="[pcto:ctd:Track Name:qk]"
+                 column="[Track Name]"
+                 derivation="None"
+                 pivot="key"
+                 type="quantitative">
+  <table-calc type="PctTotal" ordering-type="Field"
+              ordering-field="[DS].[Album (group)]" />
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+The pattern generalizes: `pcto:{base-agg}:` where `base-agg` matches the underlying aggregation type — `sum`, `ctd` (CountDistinct), `avg`, etc.
+
+---
+
+## Calc-authoring command pitfalls on a live session
+
+Two command-specific traps when authoring calcs on a running Tableau Desktop via the document round-trip (see the Wrong-fork check above):
+
+- **`apply-calculation-for-create-or-update` and its Analytics-Assistant-gated siblings require a signed-in Cloud+AI session** — observed failing 400/500 without one. The workbook document round-trip (splice the `<column><calculation>` node into the workbook document, then post it back with the document apply tool) needs no sign-in and opens no dialog. Prefer it.
+- **`tabdoc:open-calc-editor-with-custom-calc` is NOT a headless calc door.** It returns `completed` but does not commit the calc — it opens the calculation editor with the formula pre-filled, and the open editor holds the UI thread so subsequent commands fail until a human closes it (live-proven 2026-07-19, twice). Human-in-the-loop only; never call it in an unattended run.

+# Calc Name Reuses an Existing *Calc* Name → Tableau KEEPS the STALE Formula (Wrong Result, Not Blank)
+
+Applying a template (or authoring a calc) whose `<calculation>` column name ALREADY exists as a **calculated field** on the target datasource makes Tableau **keep the datasource's stale formula and silently discard the one you authored**. Unlike the field-collision variant, the viz is **not blank** — it renders with the WRONG numbers, which is harder to catch.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: A name collision between an authored calc and an existing *calc* of the same name is resolved by the loader in favor of the DATASOURCE's stale formula; the template's freshly-authored formula is dropped, so the mark computes a wrong value. Root-caused live on a template fast-path apply (2026-07-05).
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: calculated-field, calc-name-collision, calc-shadows-calc, formula-shadow, stale-formula, wrong-result, not-blank, silent-wrong-value, template-apply, calc-namespacing, per-apply-suffix, reused-calc-name, gantt, zero-span, ww-floating-bars
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "my calc shows the wrong number after apply", "the template computed a different value than expected", "gantt bars have zero span / ticks instead of spans", "the formula didn't take effect after applying the template", "Tableau kept the old formula for my calculated field", "I reused a calc name and got stale results", "same-named calc on the datasource overrides my template calc", "apply succeeded but the calculation is wrong", "why is my calculated field using an old formula", "template fast-path renders broken but a uniquely-named copy renders fine"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Reach for this when a template/worksheet **applies and renders (non-blank) but the numbers are wrong**, especially when a *uniquely-named* copy of the same viz renders correctly on the SAME datasource. The tell: the target datasource already contains a calculated field with the SAME name as one the template authors.
+
+Distinguish from the field-collision variant:
+
+- **Calc name == a real DATA COLUMN** → loader ignores the calc entirely → **blank / no marks** → see `calc-name-collides-with-field.md`.
+- **Calc name == an existing CALC** (this entry) → loader keeps the datasource's **older formula** → **renders, but wrong** (e.g. a Gantt whose size calc silently reverts to a stale definition and paints zero-span ticks).
+
+Both are silent: the apply returns "completed"; only the render (or a diagnostic text table) reveals the defect.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Namespace template-internal calc names per apply.** When injecting a template, rename the template's OWN calc columns to per-apply-unique names (e.g. `Calculation_GanttSize` → `Calculation_GanttSize_tpl_<shorthash>`) consistently across the column definition, its column-instances, encodings, and any formula that references it. A stale same-named datasource calc then cannot capture the reference. This is default-on in the injector (see Implementation).
+2. **Keep captions human-readable — but track a formula REBIND.** Per-apply NAME namespacing (the `_tpl_` suffix) touches only the internal `name` token; leave `caption` alone so pills stay legible. **Exception:** if the same apply also *rebinds* the formula's field-refs to different bound fields, a bracket-free caption then misnames the calc and must be re-derived — see `calc-caption-follows-formula-rebind.md`.
+3. **Never rename dataset-bound fields.** Only the template's derived calc columns get suffixed; mapped data fields keep their names.
+4. **Verify the render, not the status.** A "completed" apply with wrong numbers is the signature — inspect a text table of the calc, or capture the viz, before trusting a fast-path apply onto a reused datasource.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Reusing generic calc names (`Calculation_ActualScore`, `Calculation_GanttSize`, `Calculation_OverUnder`) on a scratch datasource that already carries them.** The loader keeps the datasource's older formula and drops the template's — the mark computes the stale value. This is the 2026-07-05 failure: on *Super Bowl by the Numbers* (`federated.1hsb30r126jxsx11dhd2s09ro96w`), a stale `[Calculation_ActualScore] = INT([Final])` shadowed the template's grafted `SPLIT/INT` parse; the committed `ww-floating-bars` direct-applied as **zero-span ticks**, while a clean apply with uniquely-suffixed calc names rendered **real spans with the axis extending to ~75**.
+2. **Retrying the same apply.** The collision is deterministic — re-applying the same generic names re-captures the same stale formula. Namespace (or pre-clear the stale scratch calcs), don't retry.
+3. **Trusting a green apply.** Non-blank + wrong ≠ success. Assuming "it rendered, so it worked" hides the shadow.
+
+## Implementation in Tableau Desktop
+
+WRONG — template calc reuses a name the datasource already defines as a calc:
+
+```xml
+<!-- target datasource already has: [Calculation_ActualScore] = INT([Final]) -->
+<column caption='Actual Score' name='[Calculation_ActualScore]' datatype='integer' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='INT(SPLIT(TRIM(SPLIT([Actual Input],"-",1))," ",2)) + INT(TRIM(SPLIT([Actual Input],"-",2)))' />
+</column>
+<!-- → Tableau KEEPS the datasource's INT([Final]) formula; the SPLIT parse is
+     discarded; the Gantt size calc that depends on it computes a stale/zero
+     value → zero-span ticks (renders, but WRONG). -->
+```
+
+RIGHT — namespace the template's own calc names per apply (dataset fields untouched):
+
+```xml
+<column caption='Actual Score' name='[Calculation_ActualScore_tpl_7547f9d4]' datatype='integer' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='INT(SPLIT(TRIM(SPLIT([Actual Input],"-",1))," ",2)) + INT(TRIM(SPLIT([Actual Input],"-",2)))' />
+</column>
+<column caption='Gantt Size' name='[Calculation_GanttSize_tpl_7547f9d4]' datatype='real' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='[Calculation_ActualScore_tpl_7547f9d4] - [Reference Value]' />
+</column>
+<!-- the suffix is a shorthash of (template + per-apply nonce): deterministic for
+     one apply, collision-free across sequential applies. [Reference Value] and
+     other dataset fields are NEVER renamed; the caption stays 'Actual Score'. -->
+```
+
+The substitution layer does this automatically: `replaceFieldReferences` (`src/server/tools/templates.ts`) rewrites every template-internal calc name — column def, column-instances, color/size encodings, and self-referencing formula bodies — while leaving dataset-bound fields and captions alone. It is **default-on** for the `inject-template` apply path; opt out with `namespace_template_calcs: false` only after de-colliding the names yourself.

+# Tableau Calc Function Reference (gotchas that bite)
+
+A by-family catalog of Tableau calculation functions, focused on the **behaviors that surprise authors** — not a syntax dump (the formula editor autocompletes signatures). Use it to pick the right function and avoid the silent-wrong-answer cases.
+
+
+**Companions:** `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/calc-fields` (calc-field XML), `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/lod-and-table-calc-patterns` (LOD + window/table-calc behavior), `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/calc-null-and-evaluation-semantics` (NULL propagation through IF/ELSE).
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Prevents silent-wrong-answer calc errors (COUNT vs COUNTD, STDEV vs STDEVP, FIND index conventions) when Claude authors calculated fields.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: functions, calc-functions, count, countd, stdevp, percentile, zn, ifnull, isnull, attr, datename, datepart, dateparse, split, find, log, lod, regex, username, ismemberof, function-reference
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "which Tableau function for", "COUNT vs COUNTD", "ZN vs IFNULL", "does COUNT include nulls", "STDEV vs STDEVP", "sample or population standard deviation", "population vs sample stddev variance", "DATENAME vs DATEPART", "DATEPARSE returns null", "FIND returns 0", "SPLIT index base", "set membership IN", "USERNAME ISMEMBEROF row level security function", "ATTR meaning", "PERCENTILE function"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Reach for this when choosing a function for a calculated field and you want to avoid a known foot-gun: counting with/without nulls, null-handling helpers, population vs sample statistics, date-part vs date-name, string index conventions, set membership, or row-level-security identity functions. For *which calc pattern solves a business question*, use the cookbook companion; for *how the calc field is encoded in XML*, use calc-fields.
+
+## Logical / conditional / null
+
+- **`IIF(cond, t, f)`** and **`CASE WHEN`** are alternatives to `IF/THEN/ELSEIF/ELSE/END`; an `IF` with no `ELSE` returns NULL for unmatched rows. NULL handling through these chains is a real trap — see the null-semantics companion.
+- **`ZN(x)`** → 0 when `x` is NULL (idiomatic for "treat missing as zero"). **`IFNULL(x, y)`** → `y` when `x` is NULL. **`IFERROR(x, y)`** → `y` on error. **`ISNULL(x)`** → boolean; distinct from `x = ''` (empty string is not NULL).
+- **`ATTR(x)`** returns `x` if it's unique across the rows in the mark, else `*`. It is an aggregate — use it to put a dimension on a measure shelf / tooltip when you expect one value per mark.
+- **Set membership** — testing whether a field is in a set uses the set as a boolean dimension (`[Set Name]` is true/false), not an `IN(...)` operator. For a literal value list use an `OR` chain or a `CASE`/`IF`.
+
+## String
+
+1-based indexing throughout (`MID(s, 5, 2)` starts at the 5th character). **`FIND(s, sub)` returns 0 when the substring is absent** (not -1) — test `FIND(...) > 0`, not `>= 0`. `SPLIT(s, delim, n)` is 1-based on `n`. `STR(x)` is the string cast (there is no `TOTEXT`). `CONTAINS`, `STARTSWITH`, `ENDSWITH`, `LEFT/RIGHT/MID`, `LEN`, `REPLACE`, `TRIM/LTRIM/RTRIM`, `UPPER/LOWER` behave conventionally.
+
+## Math
+
+`ABS`, `ROUND`, `CEILING`, `FLOOR`, `POWER`, `SQRT`, `LN`, `LOG`, `EXP`, `MOD`, `SIGN`, `PI`, plus casts `INT` (truncates toward zero) and `FLOAT`. **`LOG(x)` is base-10**; use `LN(x)` for natural log or `LOG(x, base)` for another base.
+
+## Date
+
+- **`DATEPART('unit', d)`** returns a **number** (e.g. month → 1–12); **`DATENAME('unit', d)`** returns a **string label** (e.g. month → "January"). Mixing them up is a common cause of unexpected axis labels or sort order.
+- **`DATEPARSE('format', string)`** parses text to a datetime — but **returns NULL silently on live SQL connections** (it relies on the extract engine). On a live connection use `CAST`/custom SQL instead, or take an extract.
+- `DATETRUNC`, `DATEADD`, `DATEDIFF` take a quoted unit (`'month'`) — unquoted fails. `MAKEDATE`, `DATE`, `DATETIME`, `TODAY()`, `NOW()`, and the named extractors `YEAR/MONTH/DAY/HOUR/MINUTE/SECOND/WEEK/QUARTER` behave conventionally. For the date-*part*-vs-*truncation* cross-year-rollup trap and integer date keys, see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/tableau-date-handling`.
+
+## Aggregates
+
+- **`COUNT(x)` counts non-NULL values** of `x` (not rows); **`COUNTD(x)`** counts distinct non-NULL values (expensive on high-cardinality — see the LOD cookbook).
+- **`STDEV`/`VAR`** are **sample** statistics; **`STDEVP`/`VARP`** are **population**. Choosing the wrong one shifts the result — pick deliberately based on whether the data is a sample or the whole population.
+- `SUM`, `AVG`, `MIN`, `MAX`, `MEDIAN`, `PERCENTILE(x, p)` (p in 0–1) behave conventionally. `PERCENTILE` inside an LOD often replaces an `NTILE` table calc — see the cookbook.
+
+## Statistical / regex
+
+`CORR(x, y)`, `COVAR/COVARP`, and the `REGEXP_EXTRACT/REPLACE/MATCH` family exist. Regex availability depends on the data source (pushed down to the warehouse); a function valid in one connection may be unsupported in another — verify against the actual source.
+
+## LOD & window / table calcs
+
+LOD expressions (`{FIXED/INCLUDE/EXCLUDE …}`) and window/table calcs (`RUNNING_*`, `WINDOW_*`, `RANK*`, `INDEX`, `LOOKUP`, `TOTAL`, `FIRST/LAST`, `SIZE`, `PREVIOUS_VALUE`) have behavior that depends on filters, the order of operations, and addressing/sort. They are NOT cataloged here — see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/lod-and-table-calc-patterns` for the recipes, the well-behaved-vs-fragile function families, sort-dependence, and the RANK-defaults-to-descending fact.
+
+## Row-level-security identity
+
+`USERNAME()`, `FULLNAME()`, `USERDOMAIN()`, `ISMEMBEROF('group')`, `ISUSERNAME('user')`, `USERATTRIBUTE('attr')` resolve against the *signed-in Tableau Server/Cloud user* at view time. They are the building blocks of user filters / row-level security; they return placeholder/empty values in Desktop when not signed in, so RLS logic can't be fully validated locally. Governed RLS belongs in the data source / a published user filter, not hidden in a workbook calc.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Match the statistic to the data**: `STDEVP`/`VARP` for a full population, `STDEV`/`VAR` for a sample.
+- **Use `COUNTD` only when you mean distinct** — it is materially more expensive than `COUNT`; on a primary key, `COUNT` (or `SUM([Number of Records])`) is cheaper.
+- **Prefer `ZN()` for "missing = 0"** and `ISNULL()` for explicit null tests; don't conflate NULL with empty string.
+- **Verify `DATEPARSE` on the actual connection type** before relying on it; it silently nulls on live SQL.
+- **Treat RLS identity functions as governance**, not a convenience filter — they only resolve when signed in.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **`DATEPART` where `DATENAME` was meant** (or vice versa) — number vs label; surfaces as wrong sort or wrong axis text.
+2. **Assuming `COUNT` counts rows** — it counts non-NULL values of its argument; a nullable column undercounts.
+3. **`STDEV` vs `STDEVP` chosen by habit** — sample vs population is a real semantic difference, not a synonym.
+4. **`FIND(...) >= 0` to test "contains"** — `FIND` returns 0 when absent, so `>= 0` is always true; use `FIND(...) > 0` or `CONTAINS`.
+5. **`DATEPARSE` on a live connection** — silently returns NULL; the calc looks valid but the column is empty.
+6. **Building RLS logic with `USERNAME()` and testing only in Desktop** — it doesn't resolve to a real identity until signed in to Server/Cloud.
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. Pick the function family for the need; check this page for the gotcha before authoring.
+2. For NULL-bearing inputs in conditional chains, apply the guards in the null-semantics companion.
+3. For LOD/window/table calcs, follow the cookbook (addressing/sort are load-bearing).
+4. Author the calc field per `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/calc-fields` (internal-name formulas, `[Calculation_<digits>]` naming), then verify in Tableau — especially `DATEPARSE` (connection type) and RLS functions (signed-in state).

+# Calc Name Collides With a Datasource Field → Tableau IGNORES the Calc (Blank Viz)
+
+Naming a calculated field the SAME as an existing datasource field makes Tableau **silently ignore the calc** on load — the viz then references a field that isn't what you authored, and renders BLANK.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: A name collision between an authored calc and a real datasource field is silently dropped by the loader; the agent's viz references the ghost calc and renders nothing. Root-caused live (WOW2026 W23, 2026-07-03).
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: calculated-field, calc-name-collision, duplicate-field-name, field-already-defined, blank-viz, blank-chart, no-marks, ignoring-calculated-field, already-defined-by-data-source, name-clash, rename-calc, load-warning, silent-drop, calc-shadows-field
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "Ignoring calculated field, field is already defined by data source", "the chart is completely blank, no bars, no marks", "my calc isn't being created", "field is already defined by data source", "I made a calc with the same name as a field", "calculated field disappeared after apply", "why is my worksheet blank after adding a calc", "warnings occurred while loading the workbook calculated field ignored", "calc named the same as a column", "renamed field collides with calc", "duplicate name calc and field"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Reach for this the moment an apply "succeeds" but the worksheet renders **blank / no marks**, and the Tableau load log (or a Desktop modal) says:
+
+> `Ignoring calculated field '[<Name>]', field is already defined by data source.`
+
+The cause is a **name collision**: you authored a `<column>` with a `<calculation>` whose `name`/`caption` matches a field that ALREADY exists in the connected datasource (e.g. authoring a calc `[O/U Line]` when the CSV already has an `O/U Line` column). The loader keeps the original datasource field and **drops your calc entirely** — so anything on a shelf that expected your calc's formula binds to nothing (or to the raw field), and the mark count is zero.
+
+This is a SILENT class: the apply returns "completed" with only a *warning*, so transcript-based failure detection misses it — the tell is the blank render plus the load warning.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Give the calc a distinct name.** If you need a derived version of an existing field `[X]`, name the calc clearly differently: `[X (calc)]`, `[X Adjusted]`, `[X Ratio]` — never the bare existing field name `[X]`.
+2. **Reference the existing field directly when no transform is needed.** If the datasource already has field `[X]`, put `[X]` on the shelf as-is — do NOT wrap it in a same-named calc.
+3. **Check the datasource's fields before authoring calcs.** List the real column names first; treat them as reserved.
+4. **After an apply, if the render is blank, read the load warnings** for "already defined by data source" before re-trying — re-applying the same collision just reproduces the blank.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Authoring `[Field] = <formula>` where `[Field]` is a real datasource column.** Tableau ignores the calc; the shelf reference resolves to the raw field (or nothing) → blank or wrong viz. This is the WOW2026 W23 failure: a calc named `[O/U Line]` collided with the CSV's `O/U Line`, the viz went blank, and repeated re-applies kept reproducing it.
+2. **Retrying without renaming.** The collision is deterministic — the same name collides every time. Rename, don't retry.
+3. **Assuming "apply completed" means it worked.** A load *warning* (not error) still ignores the calc; success + blank render = suspect a collision.
+
+## Implementation in Tableau Desktop
+
+WRONG — calc name shadows an existing datasource field (silently dropped):
+
+```xml
+<!-- datasource already has a column named 'O/U Line' -->
+<column caption='O/U Line' name='[O/U Line]' datatype='real' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='[Final] - [Betting Line]' />
+</column>
+<!-- → load warning: "Ignoring calculated field '[O/U Line]', field is already defined
+     by data source."  The calc never exists; a shelf using it renders blank. -->
+```
+
+RIGHT — distinct name (the calc is created and usable):
+
+```xml
+<column caption='O/U Diff' name='[O/U Diff]' datatype='real' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='[Final] - [O/U Line]' />
+</column>
+<!-- references the REAL datasource field [O/U Line]; the new calc [O/U Diff] has a unique name. -->
+```
+
+Or, if no transform is needed, skip the calc and put the datasource field on the shelf directly.

+
+## When to Use
+
+Read this when authoring or reviewing any `IF/ELSEIF/ELSE` (or nested `IF`) calculation whose input field can be NULL — especially:
+
+- A tiering/bucketing calc over a measure that can be null (e.g. a lifetime-revenue tier).
+- A categorization built on a **date derivation** (`MONTH()`, `WEEKDAY()`, `YEAR()`) where the source date can be null.
+- Any calc that reads a field which may be null because of an outer/orphan join or a missing lookup.
+- Diagnosing a chart that shows an **extra NULL bucket**, or a final/ELSE category that has **more rows than expected**.
+
+## The core behavior
+
+Tableau three-valued logic: a comparison against NULL evaluates to **NULL**, and NULL is treated as **not true** by `IF`. So in a chain, a NULL input fails *every* `THEN` test and **falls through to the `ELSE` arm**.
+
+```
+IF      [Lifetime Revenue] >= 5000 THEN "Platinum"
+ELSEIF  [Lifetime Revenue] >= 2000 THEN "Gold"
+ELSEIF  [Lifetime Revenue] >= 500  THEN "Silver"
+ELSE    "Bronze"
+END
+```
+
+If `[Lifetime Revenue]` is NULL: `NULL >= 5000` is NULL (not true), every `ELSEIF` likewise fails, and the row lands in **"Bronze"** — not in a separate null bucket. The chart shows a skewed "Bronze" total with no indication anything is wrong.
+
+### The silent-misbucket case (worse)
+
+When the final `ELSE` returns a **literal** rather than the result of a comparison, NULL rows are misbucketed into that literal with zero error signal:
+
+```
+IF      WEEKDAY([Ship Date]) = 1 THEN "1 Sunday"
+ELSEIF  WEEKDAY([Ship Date]) = 6 THEN "6 Friday"
+ELSE    "7 Saturday"          // ← every NULL Ship Date piles in here
+END
+```
+
+`WEEKDAY(NULL)` is NULL; `NULL = 1` is NULL; all tests fail; null-dated rows render as "Saturday" alongside genuine Saturdays. (Observed: 53 null-`Ship Date` rows all rendered "7 Saturday" until a guard was added.)
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Add an explicit outer null guard** so NULL inputs return NULL instead of falling through:
+  `IF ISNULL([Ship Date]) THEN NULL ELSE <the IF/ELSEIF chain> END`. The null rows then form an honest NULL bucket (or are excluded) rather than contaminating a real category.
+- **Or coalesce the input to a sentinel** that lands NULLs in the bucket you actually intend, before the comparison chain: `ZN([Lifetime Revenue])` (→ 0) or `IFNULL([x], -1)` with a sentinel below all thresholds so nulls fall into the intended low tier deliberately, not accidentally.
+- **Decide where nulls belong, explicitly.** The bug is not "nulls exist" — it is nulls landing somewhere *by accident*. Choose: own NULL bucket, excluded, or a named tier — and encode that choice.
+- **Apply the guard to every nested-IF categorization over a nullable source** — date-derived dimensions (`WEEKDAY`/`MONTH`/`YEAR`), lookup/blend-derived fields, and anything that can carry NULL from an outer join.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Assuming a NULL input produces a NULL/own bucket.** It does not — it silently takes the `ELSE` arm. This is the #1 cause of an unexpected count in the last category of a tiering calc.
+2. **Trusting that "no error" means "correct buckets."** The misbucket is silent: the calc compiles, the view renders, totals are just quietly wrong.
+3. **Guarding only the first branch.** `IF ISNULL([x]) THEN ... ` must wrap the *entire* chain; a guard on one `ELSEIF` still lets other NULL paths fall through.
+4. **Using a coalesce sentinel that collides with real data.** `IFNULL([x], 0)` is wrong if `0` is a meaningful value for `[x]`; pick a sentinel outside the real domain.
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. Identify whether the calc's source field can be NULL (nullable measure, date that can be missing, outer/blend/lookup field).
+2. If it can, wrap the whole conditional: `IF ISNULL([source]) THEN NULL ELSE <chain> END`, **or** coalesce the source to a deliberately-chosen sentinel before the comparisons.
+3. Verify by checking the category counts/totals against the raw row count for NULL-source rows — confirm they land where you intended, not in the trailing `ELSE`.
+4. For the calc-field XML and naming rules, see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/calc-fields`.

+# Connection Schema Override Limits
+
+Use this when a field's type, role, or default format keeps reverting after worksheet or datasource XML edits, especially with Excel (`excel-direct`) or CSV/text (`textscan`) connections.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: troubleshoot, safely stop retry loops
+- In-scope reason: Explains when the datasource connection schema can override worksheet or datasource-level field redeclarations, and when to escalate to a data-source/connection fix.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: datasource, connection-schema, excel-direct, textscan, metadata-records, column-datatype, datatype-override, default-format, schema-inference, typed-parse-calc, stop-condition
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "field type keeps reverting", "Excel column inferred as string", "date field shows as text", "worksheet XML datatype change does not stick", "datasource column datatype ignored", "CSV schema override", "connection schema wins", "stop retrying apply", "fix type at data source", "use DATE or INT workaround"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this entry when a field's apparent type or format is wrong and the first XML fix does not survive a fresh `get-workbook-xml` readback. The high-risk pattern is an existing file connection (`excel-direct` or `textscan`) whose connection/relation metadata already carries a schema decision, while the agent is only changing worksheet-level `<column>` definitions inside `datasource-dependencies`.
+
+This is not for normal calculated field authoring. A new Tableau calc declared as a datasource `<column>` can carry its own `datatype` when inserted in the datasource's valid column location. This entry is about pre-existing physical columns whose type or format comes from the connection layer.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Read the connection before retrying.** Inspect the datasource's `<connection>`, `<named-connections>`, `<relation>`, relation `<columns>`, `<metadata-records>`, datasource `<column>` definitions, and worksheet `<datasource-dependencies>`. The datasource entry documents that these pieces must agree and that Excel uses `class="excel-direct"` while CSV/text uses `class="textscan"`.
+2. **Treat worksheet dependencies as consumers, not the source of physical schema truth.** Worksheet-level `<column>` definitions tell the worksheet how it uses a field; they are not a reliable place to change a physical Excel/CSV field's inferred datatype. <!-- TODO-VERIFY-LIVE -->
+3. **Know where `<column datatype=...>` works.** It is appropriate for authored calculated fields and for a new datasource definition you are constructing. It is not proven to override an existing file connection's physical schema after Tableau has inferred or stored that schema. <!-- TODO-VERIFY-LIVE -->
+4. **Use a typed parse calc as a workaround when the source cannot be changed.** If the user cannot fix the file/data source immediately, add a new calculated field with the target type, such as `DATE(...)`, `DATEPARSE(...)`, `INT(...)`, or `FLOAT(...)`, using the parsing guidance in the date and string parsing entries. Verify the calc on real rows before building the final view.
+5. **Stop and say the limit out loud.** After one targeted worksheet/datasource redeclaration and a readback that still shows the old type/format, do not keep applying variations. Tell the user the type appears controlled by the connection/data-source layer and must be fixed there, or use a typed calc workaround.
+
+### When to STOP and Say So
+
+Stop retrying XML applies when all of these are true:
+
+1. The field is a physical column from an existing connection, especially `excel-direct` or `textscan`.
+2. The worksheet-level `<datasource-dependencies>` or datasource-level `<column datatype=...>` edit applies but disappears, is normalized back, or the field still behaves as the old type after a fresh readback.
+3. The connection/relation/metadata layer still describes the field with the old type, format, or source schema.
+
+Say: "This looks like a connection-level schema decision, not a worksheet XML problem. I should not keep retrying worksheet applies. Please fix the field type in the data source or source file, or I can add a typed Tableau calculated field as a workaround."
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Looping at the worksheet layer.** Rewriting the same `<datasource-dependencies><column datatype=...>` shape cannot fix a field whose source schema is controlled by the connection. <!-- TODO-VERIFY-LIVE -->
+2. **Assuming datasource `<column>` redeclaration always wins.** Existing repo evidence confirms connection-level `default-format` can override both worksheet and datasource field formatting. The same limit for physical-column datatype is based on pilot episode evidence and still needs live verification. <!-- TODO-VERIFY-LIVE -->
+3. **Editing live connection nodes to force a type.** The datasource guidance says not to modify `connection` or `named-connections` in an existing datasource; they contain live file paths and authentication details.
+4. **Using `DATEPARSE` without checking connection type.** The date handling entry says `DATEPARSE` silently returns null on live SQL connections. Prefer source-layer casts for live SQL, or verify the calc directly.
+5. **Casting dirty strings wholesale.** `INT([CompoundString])` or `FLOAT([CompoundString])` returns null/zero when the string contains labels or delimiters. Split or regex-extract first.
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Confirmed connection-format limit
+
+The datasource entry documents a confirmed limitation for formatting: an Excel connection-level schema can define a field format that wins over both worksheet-level and datasource-level `default-format` edits. That proves the broad shape of the limit: some field presentation facts are owned by the connection schema, not by the worksheet.
+
+```xml
+<!-- Existing connection-level schema owns the physical field fact. -->
+<connection class="excel-direct" ... />
+
+<!-- These worksheet/datasource redeclarations can be stripped or ignored
+     when the connection schema wins. -->
+<column datatype="date" name="[Order Date]" role="dimension" type="ordinal" />
+```
+
+### Best-evidence datatype example
+
+The following is the best-evidence stop pattern from episode mining, not a live-verified recipe. <!-- TODO-VERIFY-LIVE -->
+
+```xml
+<!-- Source connection has inferred [Ship Date] as string/text. -->
+<connection class="excel-direct" ... />
+<relation connection="excel-direct.orders" name="Orders" table="[Orders$]" type="table">
+  <columns gridOrigin="A1:F5000:no:A1:F5000:0" header="yes" outcome="6">
+    <column datatype="string" name="Ship Date" ordinal="4" />
+  </columns>
+</relation>
+
+<!-- A worksheet-only redeclaration is not the fix. -->
+<datasource-dependencies datasource="Sample Orders">
+  <column datatype="date" name="[Ship Date]" role="dimension" type="ordinal" />
+  <column-instance column="[Ship Date]" derivation="None" name="[none:Ship Date:ok]" pivot="key" type="ordinal" />
+</datasource-dependencies>
+```
+
+What does **not** work: repeatedly changing only the worksheet dependency or shelf column-instance after readback shows the source field is still a string. Stop and escalate to the data source, or author a new calc:
+
+```xml
+<column caption="Ship Date (Parsed)" datatype="date" name="[Ship Date Parsed]" role="dimension" type="ordinal">
+  <calculation class="tableau" formula="DATE([Ship Date])" />
+</column>
+```
+
+Use `DATEPARSE("yyyy-MM-dd", [Ship Date])` only when that function is valid for the connection type; for live SQL, push the cast into SQL or the source layer. For numeric fields stored as text, use `INT([Field])` / `FLOAT([Field])` only after cleaning or extracting the numeric token when needed.
+
+### Decision workflow
+
+1. Re-read the workbook and identify the datasource/field path.
+2. If the field is a generated Tableau calc, fix the datasource calc `<column>` and its `datatype`.
+3. If the field is a physical Excel/CSV column, inspect relation `<columns>` and `<metadata-records>` for the source type.
+4. Make at most one targeted XML correction at the highest safe layer you own, then apply and read back.
+5. If Tableau restores the old type/format, stop. Tell the user the connection schema wins and offer the typed calc workaround.

+# Dashboard Performance and Designing Efficient Workbooks
+
+Strategy for designing fast Tableau dashboards and diagnosing slow ones — the author-controlled levers (data, calculations, worksheets, layout), a performance budget, and when to push back on a request that cannot be fast.
+
+
+**Tactics companion:** `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/datasources` (extract/connection mechanics) and `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/calc-fields` (calc XML) — the authoring mechanics behind these performance decisions.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude guide users to build fast dashboards by applying author-controlled performance levers.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: performance, extract, materialization, mark count, filters, filter-controls, quick-filter, dashboard-performance, workbook size, lazy loading, LOD, table calculations, production dashboards, VizQL, data source, Hyper
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "quick filter for each dimension", "quick filters for all dimensions", "quick filters for every dimension", "show only relevant values quick filters", "categorical quick filters on every dimension", "a filter control per dimension", "filter card per dimension", "visible filter shelf for dimensions", "add filters for all dimensions", "too many quick filters", "quick-filter performance", "dashboard is slow", "make my workbook faster", "efficient workbook", "reduce mark count"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when:
+- A customer's dashboard is slow and you need to identify where to focus
+- A user is building a new production dashboard and needs to design for speed from the start
+- A customer is asking why their dashboard is faster on Desktop than on Server (or vice versa)
+- A user is adding features and asking what the performance trade-off is
+
+This applies to:
+- Tableau users building dashboards for production deployment (Tableau Server or Cloud)
+- SEs diagnosing slow workbooks during POCs, deployments, or health checks
+
+**The anatomy of performance.** Every Tableau dashboard load passes through four stages: Query Time → Calculation Time → Rendering Time → Layout Computation. Authors control all four through their data, calculations, worksheets, and dashboard design. Most performance problems are authoring mistakes, not infrastructure problems.
+
+**Performance budget.** Treat load time like a budget. Target an acceptable load time (a common starting point: ≤5 seconds for executive dashboards, ≤30 seconds for analyst dashboards, ≤60 seconds for technical/specialized views). Every chart, filter, LOD calc, and mark spends from that budget. Each unneeded element is waste.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Data Source
+
+1. **Use Hyper extracts whenever possible.** Extracts are the single most impactful change for most workbooks. They are columnar, in-memory, and purpose-built for Tableau queries. If a workbook is slow, the first test is always: take an extract and compare.
+
+2. **Size your extract for the workbook, not the database.** Before publishing: hide unused fields (Data Source tab → right-click field → Hide), apply a data source filter to exclude unneeded rows, and aggregate to the granularity the dashboard actually needs. Each unneeded row and column adds processing overhead.
+
+3. **Materialize calculations in the extract.** After adding calculated fields, force Tableau to pre-compute them: Data menu → select your data source → Extract → Compute Calculations Now. Materialized calcs are stored in the extract and do not run at query time. Note: Tableau cannot materialize calculations that use parameters, NOW(), TODAY(), table calcs, LOD expressions, or external functions.
+
+4. **Prefer the Logical Layer (Relationships) over the Physical Layer (Joins) for multi-table data.** Relationships allow Tableau to query tables independently and respect granularity. This avoids row multiplication that makes aggregations incorrect and extracts bloated.
+
+5. **Avoid Custom SQL in production.** Custom SQL becomes a subquery that wraps every Tableau query, creating complex and hard-to-optimize SQL. Alternatives: use a database view, take a Hyper extract, or redefine joins in Tableau's UI instead.
+
+### Calculations
+
+6. **Materialize expensive calculations at the data layer.** Row-level calculations (string manipulation, date conversions, CASE grouping) should be pre-computed in the database or extract — not recalculated at query time. Move `LEFT()`, `FIND()`, `DATEPARSE()`, `DATEPART()` to the data layer when possible.
+
+7. **Use CASE statements for grouping, not native Groups.** Native Groups load the entire domain of the dimension. CASE statements load only the named members. Order of performance (best to worst): CASE > Sets > Native Groups > IF/ELSEIF chains.
+
+8. **Use ELSEIF, not ELSE IF.** `ELSEIF` is treated as a single statement and can be optimized to a CASE by the query engine. `ELSE IF` (with a space) creates nested logical statements. Also: put the most frequent outcomes first in IF chains — Tableau stops evaluating as soon as it finds a match.
+
+9. **Prefer MIN/MAX over ATTR and AVG** when values are known to be non-duplicated. `ATTR` runs both MIN and MAX internally. Choosing one cuts the work in half.
+
+10. **Avoid COUNTD when possible.** `COUNTD` is expensive at large data volumes. If you are counting a primary key, use `COUNT` or `SUM([Number of Records])`. In the relational model, use `CNT(Table)` for even faster counting directly on the dimension table.
+
+11. **Use IN instead of OR for list comparisons.** `[Field] IN ('A', 'B', 'C')` is processed as a single list check. `[Field] = 'A' OR [Field] = 'B'` evaluates each condition individually.
+
+12. **Aggregate parameters before evaluation.** A CASE statement that evaluates row-level values with a parameter runs on every row before aggregation. Wrapping the comparison in `SUM()` allows Tableau to aggregate first, then evaluate the parameter — far fewer comparisons. Example: `CASE [Param] WHEN 'Sales' THEN SUM([Sales]) END` is faster than `SUM(CASE [Param] WHEN 'Sales' THEN [Sales] END)`.
+
+### Worksheets
+
+13. **Minimize mark count.** Every bar, point, text cell, and shape is a mark Tableau must render. Check the mark count in the bottom-left of Desktop. High mark counts on complex charts slow dashboards significantly — aggregate to a higher level, filter, or break into separate views.
+
+14. **Avoid polygon marks on Server.** Polygon mark types force server-side rendering on Tableau Server/Cloud, which sends an image instead of data and slows tooltips and hover interactions.
+
+15. **Use text formatting for KPI arrows instead of shape calculations.** Format → Number → Custom → type `▲;▼;–` to display up/down indicators without a calculated field or shape assignment.
+
+16. **Avoid the Page Shelf in production.** The Page Shelf queries all pages at once — it does not reduce data. It has the appearance of a filter but none of the performance benefit.
+
+### Dashboard Layout
+
+17. **Use fixed-size dashboards.** Fixed sizing allows Tableau Server to cache results predictably. Automatic sizing changes the layout per user, reducing cache effectiveness.
+
+18. **Limit views per dashboard.** Every worksheet adds queries and marks. More than 5 visualizations on one dashboard is a signal to reconsider structure. Split into multiple focused dashboards connected by navigation actions.
+
+19. **Limit filter controls to 3–5 per dashboard.** Each filter control adds rendering and query complexity. "Show Only Relevant Values" on filters issues a query per filter change to regenerate the list — avoid it unless essential, and use embedded Hyper extracts if you must.
+
+20. **Use lazy loading: hide detail views until needed.** Float a container and add a Show/Hide button. Hidden containers are not rendered on initial load. Use this for drill-down views, detail tables, and secondary filters — load only what users actually need at first glance.
+
+21. **Publish without tabs for production dashboards.** Tabs cause Tableau to load elements of all dashboards in the workbook at once. Use navigation buttons or URL actions for navigation instead.
+
+22. **Clean up unused elements before publishing.** Remove unused calculated fields, worksheets, dashboards, and data sources. Tableau's VizQL engine parses the entire TWB file before rendering any dashboard — a larger file means a slower parse on every load.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Say no when:
+- A customer wants to add a large crosstab with 6+ filters so users can export raw data — this is an ETL use case, not a dashboard. Tableau Prep or a direct query tool is the right answer.
+- A user wants to embed pixel-perfect formatted financial reports (P&L, balance sheets) with complex formatting — performance and formatting control will both be poor. Flag Tableau Extensions or a report tool as alternatives.
+- Someone expects a dashboard querying billions of live rows across a transatlantic connection to load in 2 seconds. This is a physics problem, not a Tableau problem — set realistic expectations and recommend extracts.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+### 1. Keeping a live connection to a slow database in production
+- **Problem**: The workbook performs fine in development with a small dataset, but is slow in production with full data volume.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Tableau can only be as fast as the underlying data source. A slow query in the database is a slow dashboard for every user on every load.
+- **Fix**: Create a Hyper extract. This is the first test for any slow workbook. If the extract is also slow, the problem is in the calculations or rendering — not the data source.
+
+### 2. Datasource filters skipped to "save time"
+- **Problem**: Publishing a data source or extract that includes every field and every row "just in case."
+- **Why it is wrong**: Every hidden field and unused row still increases the extract size and parse time. The more focused the extract, the faster the dashboard.
+- **Fix**: Before publishing, apply a data source filter, hide all unused fields, and aggregate to the required level of detail. Run Extract → Compute Calculations Now.
+
+### 3. Too many filters with "Show Only Relevant Values"
+- **Problem**: Five dropdown filters all set to show only relevant values.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Each filter interaction triggers a new query to regenerate all filter lists. Five filters with relevant values = five queries per selection change, compounding with every user interaction.
+- **Fix**: Limit to 3–5 filters total. Use custom value lists or wildcard matches instead of "only relevant values" where possible. If you must use relevant values, use an embedded Hyper extract.
+
+### 4. Native Groups for dimension grouping on live connections
+- **Problem**: Using Tableau's drag-to-group functionality to create regional groups or category rollups.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Native Groups load the entire domain of the dimension on every query. On large dimensions this adds substantial overhead.
+- **Fix**: Replace with a CASE statement or add the grouping to the data source. CASE statements load only the named members.
+
+### 5. Publishing with tabs enabled
+- **Problem**: A workbook with 10 dashboards is published with "Show Sheets as Tabs" checked.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Tableau loads elements of all dashboards and worksheets when tabs are displayed. A user opening Dashboard 1 still triggers processing for Dashboards 2–10.
+- **Fix**: Uncheck "Show Sheets as Tabs" at publish time. Build navigation using buttons (Dashboard → Objects → Button) or URL actions.
+
+### 6. Uncleaned workbooks with leftover development artifacts
+- **Problem**: 40 worksheets, 15 unused calculated fields, 3 data sources, and 2 auto-generated device layouts in a workbook that only uses 5 sheets in production.
+- **Why it is wrong**: VizQL parses the entire TWB file before rendering. Unused elements increase file size and parse time for every single load by every user.
+- **Fix**: Delete unused worksheets, calculated fields, and data sources before publishing. Remove device-specific layouts that aren't needed. Large dashboard counts in a single workbook should be split into smaller workbooks.
+
+### 7. Ignoring the Performance Recorder
+- **Problem**: A user reports a slow dashboard but has no data on where the slowness is.
+- **Why it is wrong**: Without measurement, optimization is guessing. The fix that takes most effort may not address the bottleneck.
+- **Fix**: Start with the Performance Recorder (Desktop: Help → Settings and Performance → Start Performance Recording). It shows query time, calculation time, rendering time, and layout computation broken out. Look at the longest events first.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+**Diagnosing a slow dashboard — the sequence:**
+
+1. **Test Desktop vs. Server.** If slow only on Server, contact the server admin — the issue may be infrastructure, not authoring. If slow on Desktop, it is an authoring problem.
+
+2. **Take an extract.** If on a live connection, create a Hyper extract and test again. If it becomes fast, the bottleneck was data source query speed.
+
+3. **Run the Performance Recorder.** Identify whether the bottleneck is query time, calculation time, or rendering time.
+
+4. **Check mark count.** High mark count (visible in bottom-left of Desktop) indicates over-rendering. Aggregate or filter.
+
+5. **Check filter count and type.** Count active filter controls. Look for "Show Only Relevant Values." Look for filters on high-cardinality dimensions.
+
+6. **Check calculations.** Look for COUNTD, Native Groups, IF/ELSE IF chains, and row-level string/date operations. Consider materialization.
+
+7. **Clean up the workbook.** Remove unused sheets, calcs, and data sources. Check workbook file size.
+
+**Performance Recording in Tableau Desktop:**
+
+Help → Settings and Performance → Start Performance Recording → interact with the dashboard → Stop Performance Recording
+
+Tableau opens a workbook showing each event timed in seconds. Sort by duration descending. Anything over 1 second is worth investigating. "Executing Query" events indicate data source speed. "Computing Layout" events indicate workbook structure complexity.
+
+**Performance Recording on Tableau Server (URL method):**
+
+Add `:record_performance=yes&` before the session ID in the URL. A Performance button appears in the toolbar.
+
+**Workbook Optimizer (Tableau Desktop 2022.4+ and web authoring):**
+
+The Workbook Optimizer automates the audit step. It evaluates the workbook against a rules engine and categorizes findings into three buckets:
+
+- **Take action** — low-risk changes with clear performance benefit (e.g., hide unused fields, close unused data sources). Many have an **Autofix** button that applies the change in one click.
+- **Needs review** — changes that require judgment (e.g., reduce dashboard view count, restructure a data source). These may involve significant redesign.
+- **Passed** — guidelines already met.
+
+To run it in Desktop: Server menu → Run Optimizer.
+
+At publish time it also appears in the publishing dialog — a natural checkpoint before content goes to production.
+
+**What the Optimizer checks** (key rules relevant to authoring):
+
+| Rule | What it flags |
+|---|---|
+| Not an extract | Data source is live; extract recommended |
+| Uncomputed calculations | Calculations not materialized in the extract |
+| Unused fields | Fields in the data source not used in any sheet |
+| Unused data sources | Data sources connected but not powering any sheet |
+| LOD calculations | High count of LOD expressions |
+| Nested calculations | Calcs that reference other calcs |
+| Native Groups | Groups that load full dimension domain |
+| Filters with "Only Relevant Values" | High query overhead on filter interaction |
+| Conditional logic filters | Slower than list or wildcard filter types |
+| Too many filters on a sheet | Excessive filter count adds query complexity |
+| Too many views on a dashboard | Each view adds queries and render time |
+| Too many layout containers | Unnecessary containers complicate rendering |
+| Non-fixed dashboard size | Automatic sizing prevents effective caching |
+| Data blending in use | Blending drives cardinality-based performance risk |
+| Cross-database calculations | Cannot be optimized; must be computed locally |
+
+**When to use it:** Run the Optimizer before every production publish. It is not a substitute for the Performance Recorder (which shows actual timing), but it catches structural problems quickly without needing to run and profile the workbook first.
+

+# Workbook XML: Adding and Refactoring Datasources
+
+Confirmed patterns for injecting, connecting, and refactoring datasources in Tableau Desktop workbooks via `apply-workbook`. All patterns validated via live `get-workbook-xml` / `apply-workbook` observation.
+
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Enables Claude to inject, connect, and refactor datasources via apply-workbook.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: datasources, connections, relationships, joins, object-graph, custom-sql, tdsx, blending, data-blend, field-roles, captions, descriptions
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "refactor custom SQL to native tables", "multi-table relationships object-graph", "inject a tdsx datasource", "tell a data blend from a join", "how is a blend encoded in the workbook XML", "linking fields primary secondary datasource", "add a calculated field to a datasource", "set field captions and descriptions"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this module when you need to:
+
+- **Refactor a custom SQL datasource** into a native Tableau data model with table relationships
+- **Inject a local `.tdsx` datasource** into a workbook programmatically
+- **Connect a new database datasource** (postgres, SQL Server, etc.) with multiple tables
+- **Understand the datasource node structure** (connection class, named-connections, object-graph, column nodes)
+- **Identify a datasource's internal ID** (`federated.XXXX` format) for use in `datasource-dependencies`
+- **Add calculated fields** to replace SQL-computed columns after refactoring
+
+For understanding how datasource fields are referenced within worksheets (column defs, column-instances), see `expertise://tableau/tactics/viz/worksheets`.
+
+---
+
+## Refactoring Custom SQL to Native Tables
+
+The most common datasource refactoring: replace a `<relation type='text'>` (custom SQL) with native table objects connected via Tableau relationships. This gives users the full data model UI, lets Tableau optimize queries, and makes the datasource maintainable.
+
+### Analysis workflow
+
+1. **Read the custom SQL** from the workbook XML (inside `<relation type='text'><![CDATA[...]]>`)
+2. **Identify the physical tables** referenced (e.g. `FROM "TableA" JOIN "TableB" ON ...`)
+3. **Identify join keys** between tables
+4. **Identify computed columns** (aggregations, CASE expressions, window functions) — these become Tableau calculated fields
+5. **Map SQL aliases back to physical column names** — the native model exposes raw column names
+
+### Confirmed working XML pattern
+
+This is the structure for a native multi-table postgres datasource with relationships, extracted from a confirmed working workbook:
+
+```xml
+<datasource caption='My Refactored DS' inline='true' name='federated.my_ds_01' version='18.1'>
+  <connection class='federated'>
+    <named-connections>
+      <named-connection caption='localhost' name='postgres.my_conn'>
+        <connection authentication='username-password' class='postgres'
+                    dbname='mydb' one-time-sql='' port='5432'
+                    server='localhost' username='postgres' />
+      </named-connection>
+    </named-connections>
+    <!-- relation type='collection' wraps the individual tables -->
+    <relation type='collection'>
+      <relation connection='postgres.my_conn' name='Transactions'

+                table='[public].[dates]' type='table' />
+    </relation>
+    <metadata-records>

+      <object caption='Dates' id='Dates'>
+        <properties context=''>
+          <relation connection='postgres.my_conn' name='Dates'
+                    table='[public].[dates]' type='table' />
+        </properties>
+      </object>
+    </objects>
+    <relationships>
+      <relationship>
+        <expression op='='>
+          <expression op='[customer_id]' />
+          <expression op='[cust_sk]' />
+        </expression>
+        <first-end-point object-id='Transactions' />
+        <second-end-point object-id='Customers' />
+      </relationship>
+      <relationship>
+        <expression op='='>
+          <expression op='[date_fk]' />
+          <expression op='[date_sk]' />
+        </expression>
+        <first-end-point object-id='Transactions' />
+        <second-end-point object-id='Dates' />
+      </relationship>
+    </relationships>
+  </object-graph>
+</datasource>
+```
+
+### Key structural rules
+
+| Element | Rule |
+|---|---|
+| `<relation type='collection'>` | Wraps all tables in a multi-table datasource. Each child is `type='table'`. |
+| `<object id='...'>` | Must match `<object-id>[...]</object-id>` in metadata-records for that table's columns. |
+| `<relationship>` | Defines a join. `<expression op='='>` with two child `<expression op='[column]'>` nodes. |
+| `<first-end-point>` | The "from" side of the relationship (typically the fact table). |
+| `<second-end-point>` | The "to" side (typically the dimension table). |
+| `connection='...'` attribute | Must match the `name` attribute of the `<named-connection>`. |
+
+### Field roles, captions, and descriptions
+
+Generated datasource fields should be analysis-ready, not just technically loadable. When adding column definitions, default to clean display names, semantic field roles, and descriptive comments.
+
+- **Classify by semantics, not datatype**: Numeric unique identifiers such as `match_id`, `customer_id`, row IDs, and keys are dimensions/non-additive. Use measures only for values users should sum, average, count, or otherwise aggregate.
+- **Use clean captions**: Preserve the raw field reference in `name='[source_url]'`, but add a `caption='Source URL'` when the source name is technical, snake_case, or otherwise less readable. Prefer names from connection metadata first, then a data dictionary or enterprise catalog, then a high-confidence agent cleanup.
+- **Add field descriptions by default**: If the datasource metadata includes comments, labels, or descriptions, carry them into Tableau. If not, use a data dictionary or enterprise catalog when available. If none exists and confidence is high, add an agent-generated description that explains what the field is, how it is calculated, where it is sourced, and when to use it.
+- **Use Tableau's description XML shape**: Put comments under the datasource `<column>` as `<desc><formatted-text><run>...</run></formatted-text></desc>`. Escape XML special characters.
+
+Example:
+
+```xml
+<column caption='Source URL' datatype='string' name='[source_url]' role='dimension' type='nominal'>
+  <desc>
+    <formatted-text>
+      <run>Link to the website or source used to populate the row. Use for auditability and provenance, not as an analytical grouping.</run>
+    </formatted-text>
+  </desc>
+</column>
+<column caption='Match ID' datatype='integer' name='[match_id]' role='dimension' type='ordinal'>
+  <desc>
+    <formatted-text>
+      <run>Unique identifier for the match row. Use to identify or count matches; do not sum or average it.</run>
+    </formatted-text>
+  </desc>
+</column>
+```
+
+### What does NOT work
+
+- **`<relation type='join'>`**: This is the old-style join syntax (pre-relationships). Use `<object-graph>` with `<relationships>` instead.
+- **Omitting `<object-id>` in metadata-records**: Causes Tableau to bind columns to the wrong logical table. Every metadata-record must have an `<object-id>` matching its parent object.
+- **Omitting `<object-graph>`**: Without it, Tableau doesn't know about the logical model and the tables appear disconnected.
+- **Mismatched `<relation name='...'>` and `<object caption='...'>`**: The `name` in the collection relation must correspond to the object graph. Keep them consistent.
+
+### Translating SQL computed columns to Tableau calculated fields
+
+After refactoring, SQL-computed columns (aggregations, CASE, window functions) become Tableau calculated fields using LOD expressions:
+
+| SQL Pattern | Tableau Equivalent |
+|---|---|
+| `SUM(col) ... GROUP BY customer` | `{FIXED [Customer]: SUM([Col])}` |
+| `COUNT(DISTINCT col) ... GROUP BY customer` | `{FIXED [Customer]: COUNTD([Col])}` |
+| `AVG(col) ... GROUP BY customer` | `{FIXED [Customer]: AVG([Col])}` |
+| `MAX(date_col) ... GROUP BY customer` | `{FIXED [Customer]: MAX([Date Col])}` |
+| `CURRENT_DATE - date_col` | `DATEDIFF('day', [Date Col], TODAY())` |
+| `NTILE(5) OVER (ORDER BY col)` | No direct equivalent — use rank-based binning with `{FIXED: MIN/MAX}` range mapping |
+| `CASE WHEN ... THEN ... END` | `IF ... THEN ... ELSEIF ... END` |
+| `col1 \|\| col2` (concat) | `STR([Col1]) + STR([Col2])` |
+
+### Validation workflow
+
+After refactoring, build side-by-side comparison worksheets:
+
+1. Create a worksheet using the **original** custom SQL datasource showing a key metric (e.g. SUM of sales by segment)
+2. Create a matching worksheet using the **refactored** native datasource showing the same metric
+3. Place both on a dashboard for visual comparison
+4. Check totals and per-dimension breakdowns match
+
+---
+
+## Connected datasource structure (for reference)
+
+When inspecting an existing connected datasource via `get-workbook-xml`, the element looks like:
+
+```xml
+<datasource name="federated.0rogfc80n0surr1dg0o9r08ppyl0"
+            caption="Run the Business PDS"
+            inline="true">
+  <connection class="hyper"
+              dbname="/tmp/rtb_extract/Data/Datasources/extract.hyper"
+              schema="Extract"
+              tablename="Extract"/>
+  <!-- ... columns, column-instances, etc. -->
+</datasource>
+```
+
+**Connection class by datasource type:**
+- Local extract (`.hyper`) → `class="hyper"`
+- Excel → `class="excel-direct"`
+- Text/CSV → `class="textscan"`
+- PostgreSQL → `class="postgres"` (inside `class="federated"` wrapper)
+- SQL Server → `class="sqlserver"`
+- Published datasource (Tableau Server/Cloud) → `class="sqlproxy"`
+
+---
+
+## Recognizing data blending (vs a join)
+
+A **data blend** combines two *separate* datasources at query time on same-named "linking fields" — distinct from a join, which combines tables *inside one* datasource. The difference is visible in the worksheet XML:
+
+- A worksheet using a blend lists **2+ real datasources** in its `<view>` (the `Parameters` datasource doesn't count), and carries a **`<datasource-dependencies datasource='<secondary>'>`** block that pulls fields from the secondary source.
+- A `<join>` (or `<relation type='join'>` / `<relationships>`) lives **inside a single `<datasource>`** and never produces a secondary dependencies block. If there's no secondary `datasource-dependencies` block, it's a join/relationship, not a blend.
+
+Key facts when you encounter one:
+
+- **The primary is the first datasource in the worksheet's `<view>` list.** Tableau aggregates the **secondary to the linking-field grain before joining** — so a blended secondary measure is effectively pre-aggregated (and behaves as non-additive at finer grains).
+- **Linking fields default to same-named captions** present in both datasources' dependency blocks. Tableau also allows **custom (renamed) link pairs** via Data → Edit Blend Relationships — those are NOT inferable from same-name matching; read the blend relationship to know them.
+- **Blending is a worksheet-level construct, not a datasource-level one.** There is no single combined datasource node to author; the relationship is expressed through the dual datasource dependencies on the worksheet. Authoring a blend from scratch via XML is fragile — prefer a relationship/join in one datasource when the data is reachable from one connection, and reserve blending for genuinely separate sources.
+
+---
+
+## Injecting a local `.tdsx` datasource
+
+A `.tdsx` file is a standard zip archive containing a `.tds` (datasource XML) and one or more `.hyper` (extract) files. Since we work directly with XML, the `.tds` inside the archive can be parsed directly with `xml.etree.ElementTree` — no conversion library needed.
+
+### Complete recipe
+
+```python
+import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
+import zipfile, os, shutil
+
+TDSX_PATH = '<local-path>/My Tableau Repository/Datasources/MyDatasource.tdsx'
+EXTRACT_DIR = '/tmp/tdsx_extract'
+WORKBOOK_XML = 'cache/workbook-XXXX.xml'  # path from get-workbook-xml
+
+# Step 1: Unzip the .tdsx
+os.makedirs(EXTRACT_DIR, exist_ok=True)
+with zipfile.ZipFile(TDSX_PATH, 'r') as z:
+    z.extractall(EXTRACT_DIR)
+
+# Find the .tds file inside
+tds_files = [f for f in os.listdir(EXTRACT_DIR) if f.endswith('.tds')]
+tds_path = os.path.join(EXTRACT_DIR, tds_files[0])
+
+# Step 2: Parse the .tds directly as XML (it already IS XML)
+tds_tree = ET.parse(tds_path)
+tds_root = tds_tree.getroot()
+ds_element = tds_root  # tds root IS the datasource element
+
+# Step 3: Clean up attributes that cause load errors
+for attr in ('source-platform', '{http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance}user'):
+    ds_element.attrib.pop(attr, None)
+
+# Ensure caption is set
+if 'caption' not in ds_element.attrib:
+    ds_element.set('caption', 'My Datasource')
+
+# Step 4: Remove document-format-change-manifest child (causes errors)
+for child in list(ds_element):
+    if child.tag == 'document-format-change-manifest':
+        ds_element.remove(child)
+
+# Step 5: Find the .hyper file and patch connection paths
+hyper_files = []
+for dirpath, _, files in os.walk(EXTRACT_DIR):
+    for f in files:
+        if f.endswith('.hyper'):
+            hyper_files.append(os.path.abspath(os.path.join(dirpath, f)))
+
+if hyper_files:
+    hyper_path = hyper_files[0]
+    conn = ds_element.find('connection')
+    if conn is not None:
+        conn.set('dbname', hyper_path)
+    for nc in ds_element.iter('named-connection'):
+        inner_conn = nc.find('connection')
+        if inner_conn is not None:
+            inner_conn.set('dbname', hyper_path)
+
+# Step 6: Parse workbook XML and inject the datasource element
+wb_tree = ET.parse(WORKBOOK_XML)
+wb_root = wb_tree.getroot()
+datasources_node = wb_root.find('.//datasources')
+datasources_node.append(ds_element)
+
+# Step 7: Save modified workbook and submit
+wb_tree.write('/tmp/modified_workbook.xml', encoding='utf-8', xml_declaration=True)
+```
+
+Then submit: `apply-workbook({ workbook_file: "/tmp/modified_workbook.xml" })`
+
+### Key transformation rules
+
+| Transform | Why |
+|---|---|
+| Delete `source-platform` | Causes load error when present |
+| Delete `xmlns:user` | Causes load error when present |
+| Set `caption` if missing | Display name in Tableau UI |
+| Set `dbname` to absolute hyper path | Must point to the extracted `.hyper` file |
+| Remove `document-format-change-manifest` child | Not valid inside a datasource node |
+
+---
+
+## Injecting a local `.xls` / `.xlsx` datasource (minimal definition)
+
+When connecting to an Excel file directly, use a **minimal datasource definition** rather than injecting a full `.tds` file. Full `.tds` files from Tableau's defaults can be 150KB+ with hundreds of aliases, groups, and formatting nodes. A minimal definition (~2KB) is cleaner and avoids bloating the workbook XML.
+
+### Minimal datasource template
+
+```xml
+<datasource name='federated.superstore001' caption='Sample - Superstore' inline='true'>
+  <connection class='federated'>
+    <named-connections>
+      <named-connection caption='Sample - Superstore' name='excel-direct.superstore01'>
+        <connection class='excel-direct' cleaning='no' compat='no' dataRefreshTime=''
+                    filename='C:/Program Files/Tableau/Tableau main/defaults/Datasources/Sample - Superstore.xls'
+                    interpretationMode='0' password='' server='' validate='no' />
+      </named-connection>
+    </named-connections>
+    <relation connection='excel-direct.superstore01' name='Orders' table='[Orders$]' type='table'>
+      <columns gridOrigin='A1:U9995:no:A1:U9995:0' header='yes' outcome='6'>
+        <column datatype='string' name='Category' ordinal='14' />
+        <column datatype='real' name='Sales' ordinal='17' />
+      </columns>
+    </relation>
+  </connection>
+  <column datatype='string' name='[Category]' role='dimension' type='nominal' />
+  <column datatype='real' name='[Sales]' role='measure' type='quantitative' />
+</datasource>
+```
+
+### Key rules
+
+- **`filename` must be an absolute path** — relative paths break on reload.
+- **`connection class='federated'`** wraps the `excel-direct` named-connection — match the two-level pattern.
+- **`relation table='[SheetName$]'`** — Excel sheet names use `$` suffix in brackets.
+- **Column `ordinal` values must match** the actual Excel column positions (0-based).
+- **Tableau auto-discovers additional columns** from the Excel file on load — you don't need to list every column, but the `<relation>` must reference the correct table.
+
+### Finding Tableau's built-in data files
+
+| OS | Path |
+|---|---|
+| Windows | `C:\Program Files\Tableau\Tableau main\defaults\Datasources\Sample - Superstore.xls` |
+| macOS | `/Applications/Tableau Desktop <version>.app/Contents/install/defaults/Datasources/Sample - Superstore.xls` |
+
+---
+
+## Datasource Connection Schema Overrides Worksheet Column Formats
+
+**Confirmed limitation (2026-06-19):** When a field's format is defined at the connection level (e.g. an Excel `.xls` file with `default-format='p0%'` baked into the column schema), that format takes priority over any `default-format` set in:
+- Worksheet-level `<column>` defs inside `datasource-dependencies`
+- Datasource-level `<column>` defs inside the `<datasource>` node
+
+Tableau strips or ignores both on round-trip. The connection schema wins.
+
+**Example:** Sample - Superstore's Excel connection defines `[Sales]` with `default-format='p0%'`. Any attempt to override it via XML produces `p0%` on the axis after Tableau re-reads the file.
+
+**Only reliable fix:** Manual UI action in Tableau Desktop — right-click the field in the view or on the axis → Format → Numbers → Currency.
+
+**How to apply:** If a field is showing an unexpected format (especially `p0%` from an Excel datasource), do NOT loop through XML attempts. Inform the user this is a connection-schema format that can only be changed manually in Tableau Desktop, and point them to: Right-click axis → Format → Numbers.
+
+---
+
+## Adding Calculated Fields to a Datasource
+
+Local calculated fields can be added to any datasource — including published Tableau Server datasources (`class="sqlproxy"`) — by inserting `<column>` elements directly inside the `<datasource>` node.
+
+### Column placement rules
+
+`<column>` elements must appear **before `<semantic-values>` and `<object-graph>`** (the last children of the datasource). Inserting them after `</object-graph>` causes Tableau to reject the XML.
+
+Correct structure:
+```xml
+<datasource ...>
+  <connection .../>
+  <!-- hundreds of existing <column> elements -->
+  <column caption="My Calc" ...>  <!-- ← insert new calcs here -->
+    <calculation class="tableau" formula="..." />
+  </column>
+  <style>...</style>
+  <semantic-values>...</semantic-values>   <!-- ← BEFORE this -->
+  <object-graph>...</object-graph>         <!-- ← and this -->
+</datasource>
+```
+
+### Metadata-record `<object-id>` is required for multi-table datasources
+
+In datasources with multiple tables, every `<metadata-record class="column">` **must** include an `<object-id>` element that matches the `<object id="...">` in the `<object-graph>` whose `<relation name="...">` is that column's source table.
+
+Without `<object-id>`, Tableau can bind columns to the wrong logical model object — fields appear to belong to a different table, causing broken joins and incorrect query generation.
+
+```xml
+<metadata-record class='column'>
+  <remote-name>CustomerName</remote-name>
+  <remote-type>129</remote-type>
+  <local-name>[CustomerName]</local-name>
+  <parent-name>[Customers]</parent-name>
+  ...
+  <object-id>[CustomersObject_ABC123]</object-id>  <!-- must match object graph -->
+</metadata-record>
+```
+
+### RFM analysis calculated fields (example)
+
+For RFM scoring on a datasource with `[Account Name]`, `[Close Date]`, `[Stage]`, `[Opportunity ID]`, `[Amount]`:
+
+```xml
+<!-- Base values (LOD per account, closed-won only) -->
+<column caption='RFM: Recency (Days Since Last Won)' datatype='integer' name='[rfm_recency_days]' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='DATEDIFF(&apos;day&apos;, {FIXED [Account Name]: MAX(IF [Stage] = &apos;Closed Won&apos; THEN [Close Date] END)}, TODAY())' />
+</column>
+<column caption='RFM: Frequency (Won Deals)' datatype='integer' name='[rfm_frequency]' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='{FIXED [Account Name]: COUNTD(IF [Stage] = &apos;Closed Won&apos; THEN [Opportunity ID] END)}' />
+</column>
+<column caption='RFM: Monetary (Won Revenue)' datatype='real' name='[rfm_monetary]' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='{FIXED [Account Name]: SUM(IF [Stage] = &apos;Closed Won&apos; THEN [Amount] ELSE 0 END)}' />
+</column>
+
+<!-- Scores 1-5 using range mapping (R: lower days = higher score) -->
+<column caption='RFM: R Score (1-5)' datatype='integer' name='[rfm_r_score]' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='INT(5.0 - 4.0 * ([rfm_recency_days] - {FIXED: MIN([rfm_recency_days])}) / NULLIF(FLOAT({FIXED: MAX([rfm_recency_days])} - {FIXED: MIN([rfm_recency_days])}), 0))' />
+</column>
+<column caption='RFM: F Score (1-5)' datatype='integer' name='[rfm_f_score]' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='INT(1.0 + 4.0 * ([rfm_frequency] - {FIXED: MIN([rfm_frequency])}) / NULLIF(FLOAT({FIXED: MAX([rfm_frequency])} - {FIXED: MIN([rfm_frequency])}), 0))' />

+
+**Scoring formula notes:**
+- `{FIXED: MIN([rfm_recency_days])}` — a table-scoped FIXED LOD that references another FIXED LOD. Tableau evaluates the inner LOD first. This pattern works.
+- R score inverts (5 = most recent = fewest days): `5 - 4 * (value - min) / range`
+- F and M scores are direct (5 = highest): `1 + 4 * (value - min) / range`
+- `NULLIF(..., 0)` guards against divide-by-zero when all accounts have the same value
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Never modify `connection` or `named-connections` nodes** in an existing datasource: These contain file paths and authentication details for the live data connection.
+- **Use `list-available-fields` to find datasource IDs**: After injection or when building a new worksheet, call this tool to get the current datasource names (`federated.XXXX`) — never guess them.
+- **Set `caption` for readability**: The `caption` attribute controls the display name shown in Tableau's Data pane.
+- **Set descriptions for generated fields**: Carry forward source metadata comments when available; otherwise add high-confidence descriptions that explain meaning, calculation, source, and appropriate use.
+- **Keep identifiers as dimensions**: Numeric IDs and keys are non-additive dimensions unless the user explicitly asks for a generated measure such as `COUNTD([Match ID])`.
+- **Strip `source-platform` and `xmlns:user` attrs**: These attrs from `.tds` files cause load errors when present in the workbook XML.
+- **Remove `document-format-change-manifest`**: Not valid inside a datasource node (belongs at workbook root).
+- **For multi-table datasources, always include `<object-id>` in metadata-records**: Without it, columns bind to the wrong logical table.
+- **Tableau auto-discovers columns on load**: You don't need every column in the minimal definition — Tableau will infer the rest from the database schema. But `metadata-records` help Tableau set correct types.
+- **Use `mode=file` for large workbooks**: The Agent API has a ~1 MB POST body limit. Native multi-table datasources with many columns can push the workbook past this limit.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Using `<relation type='text'>` (custom SQL) when native tables would work**: Custom SQL blocks Tableau's query optimizer, hides the data model from users, and prevents relationship-based joins. Use native tables with `<object-graph>` relationships.
+2. **Omitting `<object-id>` in metadata-records for multi-table datasources**: Causes columns to bind to the wrong logical table.
+3. **Omitting the `<object-graph>` entirely**: Without it, Tableau doesn't know about the logical model and tables appear disconnected.
+4. **Re-using a stale file path**: After each `apply-workbook`, call `get-workbook-xml` immediately before any further modification.
+5. **Not patching `dbname` for extracted `.hyper` files**: The `.tds` file contains the original file path which may not exist on the current machine.
+6. **Injecting a published datasource (sqlproxy) programmatically**: Not supported — requires user action (Data > New Data Source > On a Server).
+7. **Placing `<column>` elements after `<object-graph>`**: Tableau silently ignores them. They must appear before `<semantic-values>` and `<object-graph>`.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Refactoring custom SQL to native tables
+
+1. Call `get-workbook-xml(mode=file)` to get the current workbook XML.
+2. Read the custom SQL from `<relation type='text'><![CDATA[...]]>` to identify tables, joins, and computed columns.
+3. Build a new `<datasource>` node with:
+   - `<connection class='federated'>` wrapping a `<named-connection>` to the database
+   - `<relation type='collection'>` containing one `<relation type='table'>` per physical table
+   - `<metadata-records>` with one record per column, each with correct `<object-id>`
+   - `<object-graph>` with `<objects>` and `<relationships>` defining joins
+4. Add `<column>` elements with `<calculation>` for any SQL-computed columns (aggregations → LOD expressions, CASE → IF/THEN).
+5. Insert the new datasource into the workbook's `<datasources>` node.
+6. Write to a cache file and submit via `apply-workbook(mode=file)`.
+7. Verify with `list-available-fields` and build validation worksheets.
+
+### Injecting a local `.tdsx` datasource
+
+1. Unzip the `.tdsx` to extract the `.tds` XML and `.hyper` file(s).
+2. Parse the `.tds` directly with `xml.etree.ElementTree`.
+3. Apply transformations: delete `source-platform`/`xmlns:user`, set `caption`, patch `dbname`, remove `document-format-change-manifest`.
+4. Insert into the workbook's `<datasources>` node.
+5. Write to cache file and submit via `apply-workbook(mode=file)`.
+6. Call `list-available-fields` to verify.
+
+---
+
+## Limitations and open questions
+
+- **Published datasources (sqlproxy):** Programmatic injection of a published datasource connection has not been confirmed. The `list_published_datasources` tool can discover them, but connecting requires user action.
+- **Field enumeration:** After injection, individual field metadata is visible in Tableau's UI but `list-available-fields` may not enumerate all fields until a worksheet uses the datasource.
+- **NTILE / window functions:** Tableau has no direct equivalent of SQL `NTILE()`. Use rank-based range mapping with `{FIXED: MIN/MAX}` to approximate quintile scoring.
+- **Temp paths:** Extracted `.hyper` file paths are temporary — if `/tmp` is cleared, the connection breaks.

+# Dialog Commands the Reference Marks as Safe (Do Not Invoke Unattended)
+
+The searchable command reference (`tableau-desktop-commands-reference.json`) is a search INDEX, not a capability census, and its `opens_blocking_dialog` flag lies for a whole class of commands. Sixteen commands (fifteen `*DialogCommand`-sourced plus `tabdoc:revert-workbook-ui`) whose source is a `*DialogCommand` are marked `opens_blocking_dialog: false` AND `agent_can_invoke: true` — invoking them on an unattended session pops a modal that holds the UI thread and wedges every subsequent command. Live-proven 2026-07-19: `tabdoc:edit-existing-parameter` (marked non-blocking) hung a session 12s on a parameter dialog while `/v0/health` stayed OK.
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent authoring / command dispatch
+- Authoring outcome improved: refine, create (avoiding a class of wedge)
+- In-scope reason: Documents a reference-metadata trust bug that would otherwise hang unattended runs.
+- Out-of-scope risk: This is about dispatch safety, not a workbook XML shape.
+- Tags: command-reference, blocking-dialog, dispatch-safety, unattended, misclassification
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "edit parameter", "sort dialog", "filter dialog", "custom sql", "goto sheet", "why did it hang"
+
+**ENFORCED since 2026-07-19 (ATTACCA):** the param-contract guard refuses every command on this list outright with a FIX redirect — the modal class cannot reach a screen through execute-tableau-command anymore. This doc remains the WHY and the census.
+
+## When to Use
+
+Before invoking any `tabdoc:`/`tabui:` command via `execute-tableau-command` on a session with no human present. If the command name matches the list below (or its source is a `*DialogCommand`), do NOT call it headlessly — it will block. Prefer the document round-trip verb (`author-*`) for the same outcome where one exists.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Trust the command's SOURCE name over the reference's `opens_blocking_dialog` flag.** A `source_file` ending in `DialogCommand` opens a dialog regardless of what the flag says. The reference misclassifies 15 such commands as non-blocking.
+- **Prefer an author-* verb for the same intent.** Parameters → `author-parameter` (reopen path); actions → `author-action`; sorts/filters/labels → the document round-trip. These never open a dialog.
+- **If a run must probe a dialog command, do it only with a human at the screen** (probe discipline: no dialog-risk probes on an unattended screen).
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Reading `opens_blocking_dialog: false` as "safe to call headlessly".** For the 15 below it is false-negative; the command blocks.
+2. **Invoking `edit-existing-parameter` / `create-new-parameter` to author a parameter.** Both are `ParameterDialogCommand` — blocking. Use `author-parameter`.
+3. **Calling `show-sort-dialog` / `edit-filter-dialog` to sort or filter headlessly.** Blocking dialogs; use the round-trip.
+
+## Implementation
+
+The 15 misclassified commands (source is a `*DialogCommand`, reference marks `opens_blocking_dialog: false` + `agent_can_invoke: true`):
+
+```
+tabdoc:launch-map-service-edit-dialog        (MapServiceEditDialogCommand)
+tabdoc:show-goto-sheet-dialog                (GotoSheetDialogCommand; for current navigation, raw tabdoc:goto-sheet is refused at the execute boundary — use activate-sheet)
+tabui:show-feature-flag-dialog               (ShowFeatureFlagDialogCommand)
+tabdoc:edit-filter-dialog                    (FilterDialogCommand)
+tabdoc:launch-shared-filter-dialog           (FilterDialogCommand)
+tabdoc:launch-map-services-dialog            (MapServicesDialogCommand)
+tabdoc:get-button-config-dialog              (GetButtonConfigDialog)
+tabui:launch-accelerator-data-mapper-dialog  (AcceleratorDataMapperDialogCommand)
+tabdoc:launch-custom-sql-dialog              (CustomSqlDialogCommand)
+tabdoc:launch-web-url-dialog                 (WebUrlDialogCommand)
+tabdoc:show-action-list-dialog-for-dashboard (HybridActionsListDialogCommand)
+tabdoc:show-action-list-dialog-for-worksheet (HybridActionsListDialogCommand)
+tabdoc:show-sort-dialog                      (SortDialogCommand)
+tabdoc:create-new-parameter                  (ParameterDialogCommand)
+tabdoc:edit-existing-parameter               (ParameterDialogCommand)
+tabdoc:revert-workbook-ui                    (probed modal 2026-07-19 — Error 47BF7751 "missing: workspace" fired on a live screen 3x in one verse; not *DialogCommand-sourced, same class)
+```
+
+Detection heuristic (for a future reference-generator fix): if `source_file` matches `/Dialog(Command)?/`, force `opens_blocking_dialog: true` and `agent_can_invoke: false`. The generator currently derives these flags from classification metadata that does not see the dialog-ness of the source class.
+
+### What does NOT work
+
+- Invoking any of the above headlessly (they block on `dlg.DoModal()` in the monolith; `create/edit-parameter` confirmed at `SchemaViewerUICommands.cpp` / `ParametersEdit.cpp`).
+- Assuming the reference's dialog flag is authoritative — it is derived, not observed.
+
+## Source and Confidence

+# Dynamic Dashboards: the author-* Verb Set (Parameters, Sets, Actions, Formatting)
+
+A dynamic Tableau dashboard — parameters the user drives, computed Top/Bottom-N sets, click-to-change actions, formatted labels — is authored entirely through the document round-trip, wrapped as `author-*` verbs so **no agent ever writes XML**. This module is the routing map: which verb for which shape, and the one law that governs all of them.
+
+The law, in one line: **parameters are the KEY SIGNATURE (established at OPEN time); calcs, sets, actions, and formatting are the MELODY (merged live over them).** Live-proven end-to-end 2026-07-19 on Tableau Desktop (main.26.0715) — the full Workout-Wednesday W44 machinery, no dialogs, no Cloud sign-in, every mutation readback-verified.
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / semantic viz authoring
+- Authoring outcome improved: calculate, create, refine, format, interact
+- In-scope reason: Names the five authoring verbs and the OPEN-vs-MERGE law that decides how each shape is authored.
+- Out-of-scope risk: Companion to `calc-fields.md` (column XML rules, and the wrong-fork check that routes calc authoring to `author-calc` first) — that file carries the per-shape XML rules; this is the router for parameters/sets/actions/formatting.
+- Tags: parameters, sets, actions, formatting, document-roundtrip, dynamic-dashboard, author-verbs
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "top N parameter", "let the user pick", "dynamically show top or bottom", "parameter control", "filter action", "show labels", "workout wednesday", "dynamic dashboard"
+
+## When to Use
+
+When an ask is DYNAMIC — the user wants to drive the viz (pick N, pick a period, click to filter) or wants computed membership (top/bottom performers, an "Everyone Else" rollup) — reach for the verb, never hand-authored XML. Route by shape:
+
+| Shape the ask needs | Verb | Authored via |
+|---|---|---|
+| Calculated field (ratio, rank, running total, LOD, YoY) | `author-calc` | live MERGE |
+| Computed Top/Bottom-N set (param-linked or fixed) | `author-set` | live MERGE |
+| **Parameter** (the control the user drives) | `author-parameter` | **OPEN — the verb reopens for you, in-call** |
+| Parameter-change action (click a mark → set a param) | `author-action` | live MERGE |
+| Mark labels on/off | `format-labels` | live MERGE |
+
+The build ORDER follows the law: **author the parameters FIRST** (they need a reopen to be born — `author-parameter` performs that reopen itself and re-pins the session before returning), then merge calcs/sets/actions/formatting over them, then build the sheets/dashboard with `bind-template` / `refine-worksheet`.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Author parameters first, everything else after.** A parameter is born only at OPEN time — `author-parameter` seeds it into a stage on disk, relaunches Desktop from that stage, readback-verifies the parameter in the reopened document, re-pins the session, and closes the old instance, all inside the one call (returns `{ reopened: true, newSession }`; ~5s, live-proven). `stagePath` is optional — omit it and the verb stages under the user's Tableau repository. Only if the reopen cannot complete does it degrade to `{ stagePath, reopenRequired: true, reopenError }` — the seeded stage on disk is then the honest fallback. The reopen preserves all previously merged work (live-proven).
+- **Reference a parameter by its token in downstream verbs**: `author-set` takes `count: '[Parameters].[Parameter 3]'` and Tableau resolves it at runtime — that is what makes the set dynamic. You do not mutate parameter VALUES to make a dashboard dynamic; the end user does that by moving the control.
+- **Every verb readback-verifies.** Each `author-*` verb reads the document back after the load and confirms its change is present before returning. A `completed`/`SUCCEEDED` envelope does NOT prove the change applied — the verb's readback is the truth. Trust the verb's result, not the envelope.
+- **Numbers stay unverified until verified** (non-negotiable, inherited from `calc-fields.md`): the verbs prove STRUCTURE (the node is present, the link is intact), never VALUES. Present a computed number only after an independent check, or say it is unverified.
+- **Keep the user's tree sacred**: the verbs add nodes; they never drop or rewrite what they did not author.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Trying to MERGE a parameter into a live workbook.** The `Parameters` datasource is frozen to live merge — create, add, and value-edit are ALL silently refused (envelope SUCCEEDED, readback unchanged; live-proven 2026-07-19). Use `author-parameter` (which reopens); never splice a parameter into a live document and expect it to stick.
+2. **Reaching for `create-new-parameter` / `edit-existing-parameter` / `create-or-edit-parameter`.** Every headless parameter create/edit command is a blocking `dlg.DoModal()` dialog — it hangs an unattended session (live-proven: `edit-existing-parameter` popped a modal despite the command reference marking it non-dialog). The command reference misclassifies these; ignore it here and use `author-parameter`. See `dialog-command-misclassification.md`.
+3. **Building the dashboard before the parameter exists.** The calc/set that references `[Parameters].[Parameter N]` needs the parameter to already be in the document. Author parameters first, reopen, then the rest.
+4. **Hand-writing `<edit-parameter-action>` / `<group><groupfilter>` / `<format>` XML.** These all MERGE cleanly via their verbs — `author-action`, `author-set`, `format-labels`. If you find yourself editing XML for a dynamic shape, you missed the verb.
+5. **Treating a rendered dynamic dashboard as numerically correct.** Structure proven ≠ values correct. Verify.
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Recipe: the full dynamic Top/Bottom-N dashboard (Workout-Wednesday W44 shape)
+
+The law made concrete — key signature first, melody over it:
+
+1. **Key signature — author the parameters (each call reopens + re-pins itself):**
+   ```
+   author-parameter { caption: 'p.Top N Sub-Category', datatype: 'integer', value: '5' }
+   author-parameter { caption: 'p.Period', datatype: 'string', value: 'Month', members: ['Month','Quarter','Year'] }
+   → each returns { reopened: true, newSession } — continue authoring immediately
+   ```
+2. **Melody — merge the computed set, linked to the parameter:**
+   ```
+   author-set { caption: 'Top N Sub-Category Set', dimension: 'Sub-Category',
+                orderBy: 'SUM([Profit])', count: '[Parameters].[Parameter 3]', end: 'top' }
+   ```
+3. **Melody — any period/rank calcs** (via `author-calc`, referencing the period parameter by caption).
+4. **Melody — the interaction** (click a mark to change the period):
+   ```
+   author-action { caption: 'Set Period', sourceWorksheet: 'Profit',
+                   sourceField: '[Sample - Superstore].[:Measure Names]',
+                   targetParameter: '[Parameters].[Parameter 1]', activation: 'on-select' }
+   ```
+5. **Melody — polish:** `format-labels { worksheet: 'Profit', showLabels: true }`.
+6. **Build the sheets + dashboard** with `bind-template` / `refine-worksheet`, referencing the set/calcs by caption and placing the parameter controls.
+
+### What does NOT work
+
+- Merging any change into the `Parameters` datasource on a live workbook (create/add/value-edit all no-op — reopen is the only path).
+- The `create-*-parameter` command family (blocking dialogs; hang unattended runs).
+- Expressing parameters/sets/actions in a chart-binding request (there is no vocabulary for them there — that is why the verbs exist).
+- Any claim that a dynamic dashboard's numbers are right because it rendered.
+
+## Source and Confidence
+
+- Source/evidence type: live execution on Tableau Desktop (main.26.0715) via the External API document round-trip
+- Source: 2026-07-19 CODA sessions — each shape live-probed and readback-verified (params frozen-to-merge / born-at-open; sets + actions + mark-labels merge; reopen preserves the melody); the five verbs are `author-calc`/`author-set`/`author-parameter`/`author-action`/`format-labels`.
+- Customer-identifying details removed: yes
+- Confidence: live-verified mechanism per shape; per-value numerical correctness explicitly NOT covered (verify values independently)

+# Cross-Grain Calcs — FIXED-LOD Lookups Across Relationships, Conditional Match-and-Sum & the LOD-vs-Table-Calc Choice
+
+Three adjacent asks are the same decision: *at what grain, and at what step of the pipeline, is this value computed?* "Look up a value in a related table," "sum the values where two columns match," and "flag rows above a threshold two ways (LOD vs table calc)" all hinge on choosing among a **FIXED LOD**, a **row-level conditional aggregation**, and a **table calc** — and on Tableau's order of operations, where `FIXED` runs *before* dimension filters and table calcs run *last*. Pick the right grain and step and the number is correct; pick wrong and it is silently off, double-counted, or won't resolve as a dimension at all.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: calculate, create, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Gives the decision rule for computing a value at a grain other than the current row/view — a `FIXED`-LOD lookup (including across a relationship, where the model changes the arithmetic), a same-row conditional match-and-sum vs a self-join, and an LOD-vs-table-calc threshold flag — grounded in the order-of-operations pipeline.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: lod, fixed, include, exclude, relationships, related-table-lookup, conditional-aggregation, match-and-sum, order-of-operations, context-filter, lod-vs-table-calc, threshold-flag, fan-out, grain, self-join
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "use an LOD calculation to look up a value in a related table", "LOD lookup value in related table", "FIXED LOD across a relationship", "how to match two columns and sum the values that match", "sum values where two columns are equal", "conditional sum when a equals b", "threshold analysis two ways LOD vs table calc", "flag categories above a dynamic threshold LOD or table calc", "LOD vs table calc for a threshold", "my FIXED LOD ignores the dashboard filter", "LOD gives different totals on a relationship than a join", "self join to match and sum inflates my totals"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this when the value lives at a **different grain than the row or the view**, and you must choose the tool and the pipeline step:
+
+- **"Look up a value in a related table"** — a per-key attribute or aggregate pulled from another table.
+- **"Match two columns and sum the matches"** — a conditional aggregation, and the question of whether a relationship/self-join is even needed.
+- **A dynamic threshold flag "two ways"** — deciding between an LOD/parameter threshold and a table-calc threshold, which land at different steps of the order of operations.
+
+For the full worked LOD/table-calc *recipe library* (cohort, Pareto, rank-within-group), see the cookbook companion; this entry owns the **which-tool-and-what-step** decision for these three shapes.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Decide value/grain before syntax.** Entity-stable, independent of what's on the shelves → **LOD** (prefer `FIXED`). Relative to the marks in the view (rank, running, % of visible total) → **table calc**. The view's grain plus/minus one dimension, reacting to dimension filters → **`INCLUDE`/`EXCLUDE`**. This is the canonical decision table — link, don't restate.
+2. **On the relationship model (2020.2+), a "related-table lookup" often needs no LOD at all.** A field from a related table is already usable and each table aggregates at its own grain before combining — so pulling `MAX([Attr])` from a related table may just be dragging the field in. Reach for `{FIXED [Key] : AGG([Attr])}` when you need a specific grain *independent of the view*. **Caution: the model changes the arithmetic** — an LOD written for a flat *join* can over/under-count on a *relationship* (native-grain aggregation), so re-verify totals when the model changes. If the "related" source is actually a **blend**, filters and the lookup won't cross it the way you expect — see the blend companion.
+3. **"Match two columns and sum the matches" is usually a row-level conditional aggregation, not a join:** `SUM(IF [A] = [B] THEN [Value] END)`. Reach for a self-relationship/join **only** when the match must cross rows or tables (the value lives in a *different* row). When it does, prefer a **relationship** over a join — a many-side join fans out and inflates the `SUM`; relationships aggregate at native grain and avoid the fan-out.
+4. **A threshold flag "two ways" lands at two different pipeline steps — choose by how you'll use the flag.** An **LOD/parameter** threshold (`[Value] > {FIXED : AVG([Value])}`, or `> [Threshold Param]`) resolves early enough to be used as a **dimension or filter**. A **table-calc** threshold (`RANK(...) <= n`, `WINDOW_*` compared to a bound) runs at step 8 and can only act as a **table-calc filter** (step 9) — it cannot form a discrete grouping. If the flag must drive **membership** (color a group, keep-and-roll-up "everyone else," be a set-action target), that is a **SET**, not a calc of either kind.
+5. **Order of operations is the debugging spine.** Context filters (3) → `FIXED` LOD (4) → dimension filters (5) → `INCLUDE`/`EXCLUDE` (6) → measure filters (7) → table calcs (8) → table-calc filters (9). Two consequences: a `FIXED` LOD **ignores** a normal dimension filter — **Add the filter to Context** to scope it; and `INCLUDE`/`EXCLUDE` *do* react to dimension filters because they run after them.
+6. **Mind cost and the aggregate/non-aggregate rule.** `FIXED` on a high-cardinality key emits a `GROUP BY` sub-query each — prefer `INCLUDE` that folds into the existing query, or pre-aggregate. And `[Sales] - AVG([Sales])` errors ("cannot mix aggregate and non-aggregate") — wrap the constant: `[Sales] - {FIXED : AVG([Sales])}`.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **A self-join to "match and sum"** where a row-level `SUM(IF [A]=[B] THEN [Value] END)` does it — and the join fans out and inflates the totals.
+2. **A `FIXED` lookup that ignores the dashboard filter** — it runs before dimension filters. Add the controlling filter to Context (or rewrite as `INCLUDE`).
+3. **Porting an LOD from a joined model to a relationship model** and getting different totals — relationships aggregate at native grain before combining; re-verify.
+4. **Using a table-calc threshold to make a discrete group label / set-action target** — it evaluates at step 8, after the grouping is needed, so it won't resolve as a dimension. Use a set.
+5. **Assuming a related table needs an LOD to be read** — on the relationship model the field is directly usable at its own grain.
+6. **Mixing aggregate and non-aggregate** in the threshold expression — wrap the scalar side in an LOD.
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. State whether the value is entity-stable (→ `FIXED` LOD), a same-row condition (→ conditional aggregation), or relative to the marks (→ table calc).
+2. Confirm the **data model** — relationship, join, or blend — because it changes the arithmetic of any cross-table value; prefer a relationship over a fan-out join.
+3. For a threshold flag, decide up front how the flag is used (dimension/filter → LOD/parameter; display-only rank cutoff → table-calc filter; membership → set).
+4. Walk the order of operations for any filter meant to scope the calc — put it in **Context** for a `FIXED` LOD.
+5. Build via the calc-fields mechanics, then **verify totals on a multi-row-per-key extract** — a calc that renders can still be aggregating at the wrong grain.

+# LOD & Table-Calc Pattern Cookbook
+
+A solution cookbook of advanced LOD and table-calculation patterns: for each business question, the copy-pasteable formula, the Compute Using / addressing setup, and the gotchas that bite in practice.
+
+It assumes the mechanics (what FIXED/INCLUDE/EXCLUDE mean, addressing vs. partitioning, the order-of-operations pipeline) are already known — see [Calculated Fields, Parameters & Table Calculations](data/knowledge/strategy/analytics/calc-fields-strategy.md) for those. Field names follow Sample - Superstore.
+
+**⇒ Wrong-fork check:** using RANK/LOD to assign GROUP MEMBERSHIP (tag rows Top/Bottom/Everyone-Else, to color them or drive a click/parameter action)? That's a **SET**, not a calc — the calcs here are for a displayed ordinal *value*. See [Membership vs. Value](data/knowledge/strategy/analytics/calc-fields-strategy.md#membership-vs-value).
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: calculate, create, validate
+- In-scope reason: Gives Claude the worked LOD/table-calc recipe for a stated business question (cohort, YoY, Pareto, rank-within-group, sparkline labels), closing the gap between "knows the calc syntax" and "knows which pattern solves this analysis."
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: lod, fixed, include, exclude, table-calculations, compute-using, running-total, lookup, rank, pareto, cohort, percent-of-total, sort-dependence, addressing, week-anchoring, rank-direction
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "share of total that ignores filters", "percent of total", "running total", "running sum wrong order when I re-sort", "table calc changes when I sort", "compute using / addressing", "year over year growth", "moving average", "rank within group", "does RANK default ascending or descending", "top N per category", "cohort retention", "first purchase date", "average daily sales per month", "histogram of customer spend", "deduplicate join fan-out", "keep grand total while showing top 10", "Tableau week starts Sunday or Monday" "RFM segmentation", "RFM score calculation", "recency frequency monetary", "customer segmentation formula", "how do I score customers 1 to 5", "champions at risk churned segment labels"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guide when a user asks for an analytical result that needs an LOD expression or a table calculation and you need the exact formula plus the addressing/Compute Using setup — for example "show each category's share of company-wide sales even when filtered," "rank states within each region," "year-over-year growth," "top 3 products per category," or "average daily sales per month." For the underlying mechanics and the full order-of-operations pipeline, see [workbook-calc-fields.md](data/knowledge/strategy/analytics/calc-fields-strategy.md).
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Which tool, which keyword
+
+**LOD keyword decision tree:**
+
+```
+Need a grain INDEPENDENT of the view (won't change as users add/remove dims)?
+├─ YES → FIXED                         {FIXED [dim] : AGG()}
+│        ⚠ ignores dimension filters (runs before them) — add filter to CONTEXT to honor it
+└─ NO  (grain should track the view)
+   ├─ Need a FINER grain than the view, then roll up?   → INCLUDE  {INCLUDE [finer dim] : AGG()}
+   └─ Need a COARSER grain than the view (drop a dim)?   → EXCLUDE  {EXCLUDE [dim in view] : AGG()}
+```
+
+Quick tells:
+- "...regardless of what the user filters/picks" → FIXED (+ context filter if it must still honor *some* filters).
+- "average of a per-X total" (avg sales per customer) → INCLUDE the finer dim, re-aggregate in the view.
+- "share of a higher level" / "vs. the category subtotal" → EXCLUDE the dim to roll past (or FIXED the level to divide by).
+- A table-scoped LOD (no colon, e.g. `{MAX([Order Date])}`) = `{FIXED : ...}`; use for grand totals / latest-date constants.
+
+**LOD vs. table calc:** Choose an **LOD** when you need a value computed on data *not in the view*, a result independent of layout/sort, or one you can filter like a dimension; LODs become SQL and run server-side. Choose a **table calc** when the computation is *relative to other marks already in the view* (running total, rank, % of total, period-over-period) or is positional/directional. Rule of thumb: reduce with LODs at the source; do positional math with table calcs on the reduced result.
+
+### Classic LOD patterns
+
+**Cohort / acquisition (first purchase date):**
+```
+[First Purchase Date]   {FIXED [Customer Name] : MIN([Order Date])}
+[Cohort]                DATETRUNC('month', [First Purchase Date])
+[Months Since Acq]      DATEDIFF('month', [First Purchase Date], [Order Date])
+```
+Retention curve: `[Months Since Acq]` (continuous) on Columns, `COUNTD([Customer Name])` on Rows, `[Cohort]` on Color — one line per cohort, all starting at month 0. FIXED on `[Customer Name]` is essential: it must ignore `[Order Date]` to anchor the cohort, and survives date-range filtering because FIXED runs before dimension filters.
+
+**New-customer trend (don't double-count repeats):**
+```
+[Is Acquisition Order]  [Order Date] = {FIXED [Customer Name] : MIN([Order Date])}
+[New Customers]         COUNTD( IF [Is Acquisition Order] THEN [Customer Name] END )
+```
+Each customer is counted once, in their acquisition period.
+
+**Percent of total that ignores filters (fixed denominator):**
+```
+SUM([Sales]) / MIN({FIXED : SUM([Sales])})
+```
+Keeps the percentage constant under quick filters. Contrast with the table-calc `SUM([Sales]) / TOTAL(SUM([Sales]))`, which *recalculates* to the filtered subset. Scope the denominator by listing dims inside FIXED: `SUM([Sales]) / MIN({FIXED [Category] : SUM([Sales])})` = each sub-category's share of its own category.
+
+> **Use `MIN()` (or `MAX`/`AVG`/`ATTR`), not `SUM()`, to aggregate a fixed denominator.** A dimensionless `{FIXED : SUM([Sales])}` is a grand-total *constant replicated onto every underlying row*; wrapping it in `SUM()` adds it up once per row feeding the mark, so on data with many rows per category the denominator inflates by the row count. `MIN`/`MAX`/`AVG`/`ATTR` collapse the identical replicated constant back to the single correct value. (Examples that use `SUM` only work when the data is already aggregated to one row per mark — don't rely on that.) **Verify by opening in Tableau on a multi-row-per-category extract** before trusting either form.
+
+**Daily average within a month (avg of a finer grain):**
+```
+{INCLUDE DATETRUNC('day',[Order Date]) : SUM([Sales])}
+```
+Drop on Rows and change aggregation to AVG. Computes daily totals, then averages them up to the month — different from bare `AVG([Sales])`, which averages line items.
+
+**Deduplicated counts (collapse a join fan-out):**
+```
+[Dedup Order Total]   SUM({FIXED [Order ID] : MIN([Order Total])})
+```
+The inner FIXED collapses to one value per order; the outer SUM rolls up correctly. On the logical/relationship model (2020.2+) this is often unnecessary — check the model first.
+
+**Average of a per-entity maximum (nested LOD):**
+```
+AVG( {FIXED [Sales Rep] : MAX([Deal Size])} )
+```
+The legal way to write `AVG(MAX(...))`, which is illegal as bare nested aggregates. Order matters — MAX inside, AVG outside.
+
+**"Last N periods" without losing the grand total:**
+```
+[Total All Time]      {FIXED : SUM([Sales])}                                  // immune to date filter
+[Last 6 Months Flag]  DATEDIFF('month', [Order Date], {MAX([Order Date])}) < 6
+```
+Put the flag on Filters = True; `[Total All Time]` was computed by FIXED *before* the filter, so the KPI stays full-history while the view shows only recent periods.
+
+### Classic table-calc patterns
+
+For every pattern, **Compute Using / addressing is load-bearing** — the right formula with the wrong direction is silently wrong.
+
+| Question | Formula | Compute Using |
+|---|---|---|
+| Running total | `RUNNING_SUM(SUM([Sales]))` | Table (Across); for multi-year, partition by Year + address Month to restart |
+| YoY / prior-period growth | `(SUM([Sales]) - LOOKUP(SUM([Sales]),-1)) / ABS(LOOKUP(SUM([Sales]),-1))` | Across for prior-period; address Year / partition Month for YoY |
+| Moving (trailing) average | `WINDOW_AVG(SUM([Sales]), -2, 0)` | Table (Across); offsets relative to current mark |
+| Percent of total | `SUM([Sales]) / TOTAL(SUM([Sales]))` | Table (Down) = whole column; Pane (Down) = within pane |
+| Rank within partition | `RANK(SUM([Sales]))` (or `RANK_DENSE`/`RANK_UNIQUE`) | address the ranked dim, partition the group |
+| Index to 100 (rebase) | `SUM([Sales]) / LOOKUP(SUM([Sales]), FIRST()) * 100` | Table (Across) per series |
+| Difference from previous | `SUM([Sales]) - LOOKUP(SUM([Sales]), -1)` | Table (Across) |
+
+**Pareto / cumulative % (80/20)** — the calc:
+```
+RUNNING_SUM(SUM([Sales])) / TOTAL(SUM([Sales]))
+```
+Apply as Running Total → secondary Percent of Total, Compute Using = Table (Across); descending sort is mandatory. The full dual-axis build (bars + line, reference lines) is in [Advanced Chart Build Recipes](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/advanced-chart-builds.md) — that entry owns the build; this owns the calc.
+
+**Top-N within each group (nested table calc):**
+```
+[Rank in Category]   RANK_UNIQUE(SUM([Sales]))
+```
+Compute Using = Sub-Category, partition by Category. Drag `[Rank in Category]` to Filters, keep `1 to 3`. As a **table-calc filter** it runs last and doesn't disturb the ranks. Use `RANK_UNIQUE` (not `RANK`) so a "1 to N" filter returns exactly N rows. For a nested formula like `RANK(WINDOW_AVG(SUM([Sales]),-2,0))`, set each level's direction in the Nested Calculations dropdown.
+
+**Sparkline min/max labeling:**
+```
+[End Label]  IF LAST() = 0 THEN SUM([Sales]) END
+[Max Label]  IF SUM([Sales]) = WINDOW_MAX(SUM([Sales])) THEN SUM([Sales]) END
+```
+Drop on Label; Tableau shows the value only where the condition is non-null. On float measures use `ROUND()` both sides or `ABS(a-b) < epsilon` to dodge floating-point inequality.
+
+**Display few, total all (the "keep the grand total" trick):**
+```
+INDEX() <= 10        // table-calc filter, runs AFTER totals
+```
+A normal Top-N dimension filter removes rows before totals and shrinks the total; an `INDEX()`/`RANK()` table-calc filter executes after totals and reference lines, so grand totals reflect all rows.
+
+**Histogram of an aggregate (bins on a computed value):**
+```
+[Customer Spend]  {FIXED [Customer Name] : SUM([Sales])}
+[Spend Bin]       FLOOR([Customer Spend] / 1000) * 1000
+```
+`Create → Bins` only works on a raw measure, not an aggregate/table calc. Collapse to the entity grain with a FIXED LOD, then bin with `FLOOR(x/size)*size`.
+
+### Addressing and sort-dependence: simple vs. needs-explicit-config
+
+**Every table calc depends on addressing (Compute Using) and the view's sort — none is sort-independent.** The real split is not "robust vs. fragile" but how much addressing you must configure explicitly: some are *correct under the default* (Table-Across or a single-dimension partition), others *require* Specific Dimensions or boundary config or they silently give the wrong answer. Even the "correct under default" group still moves if the view's sort changes — so pinning the sort is part of correctness for all of them.
+
+Two facts that govern every table calc:
+
+- **Cumulative and rank calcs follow the view's sort.** `RUNNING_*`, `RANK*`, `INDEX()`, and `LOOKUP()` accumulate/rank in the order marks appear, which is set by the *worksheet sort* (`<computed-sort>` "sort dim X by measure Y"), not by the formula. Re-sorting the viz changes the answer. For a Pareto, the descending sort is part of the calc's correctness, not cosmetics — pin it. If the sort measure isn't itself on the view, the sort still has to target it (a hidden companion field), or the running order is wrong.
+- **`RANK*` defaults to descending.** `RANK(SUM([Sales]))` ranks largest = 1. State the direction explicitly when you mean ascending; this is a frequent off-by-direction bug when porting from engines that default ascending.
+
+**Correct under the default addressing (Table-Across or a single-dim partition is enough) — but still sort-dependent, so pin the sort:** `RUNNING_SUM/AVG/MAX/MIN/COUNT`, `WINDOW_SUM/AVG/MAX/MIN/COUNT/STDEV` with trailing bounds `(-n, 0)`, `RANK`, `RANK_DENSE`, `RANK_PERCENTILE`, `INDEX`, `LOOKUP(agg, ±n)`, unbounded `TOTAL`/`WINDOW_SUM` for share-of-total. The default Compute Using yields the intended result here *for a single addressing dimension*; it does not make these immune to a sort change (see the Pareto note above).
+
+**Require explicit addressing — set Specific Dimensions and verify, or expect surprises:** `WINDOW_MEDIAN/PERCENTILE/CORR/COVAR/VAR/STDEVP`, `PREVIOUS_VALUE`, `SIZE()`, `FIRST()`/`LAST()` (including as window bounds), `RANK_UNIQUE`/`RANK_MODIFIED`, **shifted windows** (`WINDOW_*(agg, 1, 3)` — bounds that don't include the current mark), restart-every / pane-relative / compute-along-a-non-axis-dim addressing, and **multi-dimension partitions** beyond a single split. None of these are wrong, but their result depends entirely on Compute Using — never trust the default.
+
+### Week anchoring is Sunday in Tableau
+
+Tableau's week truncation and `DATEPART('weekday', …)` are **Sunday-anchored** (Sunday = 1), regardless of the warehouse's week-start convention (Snowflake defaults to Monday). A `RUNNING_SUM` or week-over-week `LOOKUP` along a week axis aligns to Sunday weeks; if the underlying warehouse rolls weeks on Monday, the week boundaries differ. When week alignment matters, derive the week start explicitly — e.g. `DATEADD('day', 1 - DATEPART('weekday', [Order Date]), [Order Date])` for a Sunday-aligned week start — rather than assuming the source agrees.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **FIXED ignores dimension filters** — it runs before them, so FIXED denominators/totals stay constant under quick filters. To honor a filter, Add to Context; to honor all normal filters, rewrite as INCLUDE/EXCLUDE.
+- **General + Top-N filters fight** (same pipeline step) — make the qualifying filter a context filter so "Top 10 in City X" works.
+- **Table calcs only see marks in the view** — a dimension filter shrinks what `RUNNING_SUM`/`LOOKUP`/`RANK` can see; period-over-period breaks if intermediate periods are filtered out. Use a table-calc filter or convert to a FIXED/INCLUDE LOD.
+- **Compute Using is silent state** — `INDEX()`, `RANK()`, `RUNNING_*`, `LOOKUP()` change when you re-sort or move pills. Pin Specific Dimensions and verify after layout edits.
+- **Partition-edge nulls** — `LOOKUP(...,-1)` and windowed offsets return Null at first/last marks. Wrap in `ZN()`/`IFNULL()` when you need 0.
+- **`TOTAL` vs `WINDOW_SUM`** — `TOTAL(SUM(x))` aggregates the underlying rows; `WINDOW_SUM(SUM(x))` sums the displayed marks. Identical in flat layouts, divergent under nested addressing.
+- **`[Sales] - AVG([Sales])` errors** ("cannot mix aggregate and non-aggregate") — wrap the constant in an LOD: `[Sales] - {FIXED : AVG([Sales])}`.
+- **No `FIRST_VALUE`/`LAST_VALUE` function** — use `LOOKUP(SUM([Sales]), FIRST())`.
+- **`RANK` drops ties in Top-N counts** — use `RANK_UNIQUE` so "1 to N" returns exactly N rows.
+- **FIXED on high-cardinality dims is expensive** — each generates a `GROUP BY` sub-query; prefer INCLUDE that rolls into the existing query, or pre-aggregate at the source.
+- **Relationship model changes the numbers** — on the logical model (2020.2+) tables aggregate at native grain before combining, so manual FIXED-dedup may be unnecessary, and an LOD written for a joined model can over/under-count on a related model.
+- **Assuming `RANK` is ascending** — it defaults to descending (largest = rank 1). Pass the direction explicitly when porting logic that expects ascending.
+- **Assuming weeks roll on Monday** — Tableau weeks are Sunday-anchored; a week axis or week-over-week calc won't match a Monday-week warehouse unless you derive the week start explicitly.
+- **Shifted/`FIRST()`/`LAST()`/percentile windows treated like trailing windows** — these depend on exact addressing and partition edges; set Specific Dimensions and verify rather than relying on Table-Across defaults.
+
+## Implementation
+
+When a user states a business question, classify it first: is the needed value independent of the view (LOD) or relative to the marks on screen (table calc)? Pick the matching pattern above, paste the formula, then state the required Compute Using/addressing explicitly — it is the most common silent-failure point. For percent-of-total and ranking, confirm whether the result should stay constant under filters (LOD/FIXED) or follow the visible marks (table calc) before choosing. Validate against a real workbook: a table calc that renders is not necessarily computing across the intended partition.

+
+
+## RFM Segmentation (Recency/Frequency/Monetary) via FIXED LOD
+
+RFM (Recency, Frequency, Monetary) is a customer segmentation technique used in CRM and sales analytics. All three base metrics are per-account LOD expressions.
+
+**Context:** assumes a datasource with fields like `[Account Name]`, `[Close Date]`, `[Stage]`, `[Opportunity ID]`, `[Amount]`.
+
+### Base metric calculations
+
+```
+Recency (Days Since Last Won):
+DATEDIFF('day', { FIXED [Account Name] : MAX(IF [Stage] = 'Closed Won' THEN [Close Date] END) }, TODAY())
+
+Frequency (Won Deals):
+{ FIXED [Account Name] : COUNTD(IF [Stage] = 'Closed Won' THEN [Opportunity ID] END) }
+
+Monetary (Won Revenue):
+{ FIXED [Account Name] : SUM(IF [Stage] = 'Closed Won' THEN [Amount] ELSE 0 END) }
+```
+
+### Scoring (1–5 scale, range-based)
+
+**R Score** — lower days = higher score (most recent = 5):
+```
+INT(5.0 - 4.0 * ([Recency (Days)] - {FIXED: MIN([Recency (Days)])})
+    / NULLIF(FLOAT({FIXED: MAX([Recency (Days)])} - {FIXED: MIN([Recency (Days)])}), 0))
+```
+
+**F Score** — higher frequency = higher score:
+```
+INT(1.0 + 4.0 * ([Frequency (Won Deals)] - {FIXED: MIN([Frequency (Won Deals)])})
+    / NULLIF(FLOAT({FIXED: MAX([Frequency (Won Deals)])} - {FIXED: MIN([Frequency (Won Deals)])}), 0))
+```
+
+**M Score** — higher revenue = higher score:
+```
+INT(1.0 + 4.0 * ([Monetary (Won Revenue)] - {FIXED: MIN([Monetary (Won Revenue)])})
+    / NULLIF(FLOAT({FIXED: MAX([Monetary (Won Revenue)])} - {FIXED: MIN([Monetary (Won Revenue)])}), 0))
+```
+
+**Combined Score** (string): `STR([R Score]) + STR([F Score]) + STR([M Score])`
+
+### Segment label
+
+```
+IF [R Score] >= 4 AND [F Score] >= 4 AND [M Score] >= 4 THEN "Champions"
+ELSEIF [R Score] <= 2 AND [F Score] >= 3 AND [M Score] >= 3 THEN "At Risk"
+ELSEIF [R Score] <= 2 AND [F Score] <= 2 THEN "Churned"
+ELSEIF [R Score] >= 4 AND [F Score] <= 2 THEN "Promising"
+ELSEIF [R Score] <= 2 AND [M Score] >= 4 THEN "Can't Lose Them"
+ELSEIF [R Score] >= 3 AND [F Score] >= 3 THEN "Loyal Customers"
+ELSEIF [R Score] >= 3 AND [M Score] >= 3 THEN "High Value"
+ELSE "Needs Attention"
+END
+```
+
+**Scoring formula notes:**
+- R Score inverts because fewer days since last order = higher score: `5 - 4 * (value - min) / range`
+- F and M Scores are direct: `1 + 4 * (value - min) / range`
+- `NULLIF(..., 0)` guards against divide-by-zero when all accounts have identical values
+- The inner `{FIXED: MIN(...)}` and `{FIXED: MAX(...)}` reference the per-account LOD result fields, giving distribution-aware cutoffs

+# LOD Membership Tier Calc: Persistable Top/Bottom/Everyone-Else
+
+The **agent-safe** recipe for parameter-driven membership labeling. Unlike sets (which are silently dropped by workbook document apply), this construct uses only `<column><calculation>` nodes that survive the MCP apply round-trip.
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML via MCP apply
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, calculate
+- In-scope reason: Provides the persistable calc-column alternative to sets for top/bottom/everyone-else membership labeling in agent-authored workbooks — the only working path for this common Workout Wednesday pattern.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: lod, fixed, membership, tier, top-n, bottom-n, everyone-else, percentile, threshold, standouts, performers, rollup, apply-safe, sets-alternative
+- Expected agent behavior: When tasked with top/bottom/everyone-else membership labeling (common in WW challenges), use this recipe instead of sets. The validation rule `rank-as-membership` now points here.
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "top performers bottom performers everyone else", "membership tier calc", "LOD tier label", "top N bottom N with everyone else", "standouts and bucket the rest", "collapse middle into everyone else bar", "parameter-driven top bottom tier", "color by top bottom group", "roll up the middle", "discrete tier color", "sets do not persist", "sets lost after apply", "groups dropped on apply", "alternative to sets for agent", "membership calc that survives apply"
+
+---
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this recipe when:
+
+1. **Agent authoring via MCP apply** — sets do NOT survive the apply round-trip (confirmed 2026-07-06); this is the only working membership construct for that path.
+2. **Parameter-driven top/bottom/everyone-else bucketing** — show the best and worst performers with the count controlled by a parameter, and roll the middle into "Everyone Else."
+3. **Row-level discrete tier** — you need a dimension that partitions Rows, is colorable as discrete, and can be a set-action target equivalent.
+
+**Do NOT use** for:
+- Human-driven Desktop use where sets work fine — sets have better parameter-binding semantics (`count='[Parameters].[N]'` re-ranks live; LOD calcs require a separate threshold calc per percentile boundary).
+- Exact top-N counts when ties at the boundary matter — the percentile approach puts tied values in the same bucket (often the correct behavior for analytics), but if you need exact row counts matching SQL `NTILE(k)`, this is an approximation.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### The three-calc pattern (percentile thresholds)
+
+For Superstore-style "Top/Bottom/Everyone-Else Sub-Categories by Profit":
+
+**1. Per-member value calc** — collapse each dimension member to a single row-level value:
+```
+[Member Profit] = { FIXED [Sub-Category] : SUM([Profit]) }
+```
+
+**2. Global percentile thresholds** — distribution stats on the per-member values:
+```
+[Top Threshold]    = { FIXED : PERCENTILE([Member Profit], 0.80) }
+[Bottom Threshold] = { FIXED : PERCENTILE([Member Profit], 0.20) }
+```
+
+**3. Tier label calc** — discrete dimension for membership:
+```
+[Profit Tier] =
+  IF [Member Profit] >= [Top Threshold] THEN "Top"
+  ELSEIF [Member Profit] <= [Bottom Threshold] THEN "Bottom"
+  ELSE "Everyone Else"
+  END
+```
+
+**Why it round-trips:** Every calc is an ordinary `<column><calculation>` node — the structure that the example corpus confirms survives apply (see `twb-example-index.json` entries with `formula=\"{fixed`). No `<groups>` section involved.
+
+**Why the nested FIXED matters:** The inner `{ FIXED [Sub-Category] : … }` collapses each sub-category to one row before percentile is taken. Without it, sub-categories with many transactions over-weight the distribution.
+
+### Parameter-driven threshold variant
+
+To let the user control the tier cutoffs via parameters (like the sets pattern's `count=` param):
+
+**Declare parameters:**
+```
+[Top Pct]    = 0.80   (range 0.5–0.99, step 0.05)
+[Bottom Pct] = 0.20   (range 0.01–0.5, step 0.05)
+```
+
+**Threshold calcs reference params:**
+```
+[Top Threshold]    = { FIXED : PERCENTILE([Member Profit], [Parameters].[Top Pct]) }
+[Bottom Threshold] = { FIXED : PERCENTILE([Member Profit], [Parameters].[Bottom Pct]) }
+```
+
+Moving the parameter re-evaluates the percentile cutoffs → membership re-ranks live.
+
+### Shelf placement for the "Everyone Else" rollup
+
+The Workout-Wednesday shape keeps INDIVIDUAL bars for the standouts and collapses only the middle. Add a row-level grouped-label calc:
+
+```
+[Member (Grouped)] = IF [Profit Tier] = "Everyone Else" THEN "Everyone Else" ELSE [Sub-Category] END
+```
+
+1. Put `[Member (Grouped)]` on **Rows** — top/bottom members keep their names; the middle collapses into one "Everyone Else" row
+2. `SUM([Profit])` on Cols; `[Profit Tier]` on Color
+
+**THE SUM-ROLLUP DISTORTION (live-proven 2026-07-07 — eval judges flag this):** the rolled-up bar is then the SUM of all middle members (~$173K in Superstore), which DWARFS the real top performer (Copiers ~$56K) and, profit-sorted, lands at the TOP — misrepresenting the middle as the best performer. Keep the middle bar modest — size it by the per-member average and say so in the tooltip:
+
+```
+[Display Profit] = IF MIN([Profit Tier]) = "Everyone Else"
+                   THEN SUM([Profit]) / COUNTD(IF [Profit Tier] = "Everyone Else" THEN [Sub-Category] END)
+                   ELSE SUM([Profit]) END
+```
+
+(The condition must be aggregated — `MIN([Profit Tier])` — because the branches are aggregates; a bare `IF [Profit Tier] = …` mixes row-level and aggregate and Tableau rejects the calc. At the grouped-label grain every row in a partition shares one tier, so MIN is exact, not a heuristic.)
+
+The published W44 keeps Everyone Else as a small grey bar nestled mid-ranking; an aggregate bar that outranks every performer is structurally tier-correct but analytically wrong.
+
+**Simple 3-bar variant** (Top | Everyone Else | Bottom): put `[Profit Tier]` alone on Rows and remove `[Sub-Category]` from all shelves — the same middle-bar distortion warning applies.
+
+### Discrete-tier color
+
+Put `[Profit Tier]` on **Color** as a discrete dimension. Assign a palette:
+- Top → green
+- Everyone Else → gray
+- Bottom → red
+
+This is the "discrete groups vs gradient" encoding from `marks-and-encodings` — color by "which group", not the raw measure.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Using a table calc (RANK/INDEX) for membership** — table calcs evaluate at Order-of-Operations step 8, after the grouping is needed. The `rank-as-membership` validation rule blocks this pattern and points here.
+
+2. **Using sets for agent-authored workbooks** — sets are silently dropped by workbook document apply. The workbook applies, but the sets are gone on round-trip. Use this LOD pattern instead.
+
+3. **Skipping the inner FIXED** — writing `{ FIXED : PERCENTILE(SUM([Profit]), 0.8) }` without collapsing to member grain first. High-transaction members over-weight the distribution.
+
+4. **Leaving the raw dimension on Detail** — if `[Sub-Category]` is anywhere in the view, the grain stays fine-grained and the rollup doesn't collapse. Remove it to get 3 marks.
+
+5. **Hardcoding thresholds** — writing `IF [Member Profit] > 5000 THEN "Top"` instead of using percentile calcs. The data changes; hardcoded thresholds don't adapt.
+
+6. **Expecting exact top-N counts** — the percentile approach assigns equal-value members to the same bucket. This is usually the right behavior (identical performers get identical treatment), but differs from SQL `NTILE(k)` which forces exact row counts. For most WW-style standout labeling, percentile semantics are correct.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+### XML structure for the three calcs
+
+All three are datasource-level `<column>` nodes (or `datasource-dependencies` inline calcs). Example using timestamped names:
+
+```xml
+<!-- 1. Per-member value -->
+<column caption="Member Profit" datatype="real" name="[Calculation_20260706_001]"
+        role="measure" type="quantitative">
+  <calculation class="tableau" formula="{ FIXED [Sub-Category] : SUM([Profit]) }"/>
+</column>
+
+<!-- 2. Top threshold (80th percentile) -->
+<column caption="Top Threshold" datatype="real" name="[Calculation_20260706_002]"
+        role="measure" type="quantitative">
+  <calculation class="tableau" formula="{ FIXED : PERCENTILE([Calculation_20260706_001], 0.80) }"/>
+</column>
+
+<!-- 3. Bottom threshold (20th percentile) -->
+<column caption="Bottom Threshold" datatype="real" name="[Calculation_20260706_003]"
+        role="measure" type="quantitative">
+  <calculation class="tableau" formula="{ FIXED : PERCENTILE([Calculation_20260706_001], 0.20) }"/>
+</column>
+
+<!-- 4. Tier label calc (discrete dimension) -->
+<column caption="Profit Tier" datatype="string" name="[Calculation_20260706_004]"
+        role="dimension" type="nominal">
+  <calculation class="tableau"
+    formula="IF [Calculation_20260706_001] &gt;= [Calculation_20260706_002] THEN 'Top'&#10;ELSEIF [Calculation_20260706_001] &lt;= [Calculation_20260706_003] THEN 'Bottom'&#10;ELSE 'Everyone Else'&#10;END"/>
+</column>
+```
+
+**Column-instance for tier calc** (discrete dimension, `none:` derivation):
+```xml
+<column-instance name="[none:Calculation_20260706_004:nk]"
+                 column="[Calculation_20260706_004]"
+                 derivation="None" pivot="key" type="nominal"/>
+```
+
+### Worked WW44-shaped example
+
+The classic "top/bottom profit performers with a slider" ask:
+
+1. **Parameter:** `[Top N Pct]` = 0.20 (top 20% = ~3 of 17 sub-cats)
+2. **Member Profit:** `{ FIXED [Sub-Category] : SUM([Profit]) }`
+3. **Top Threshold:** `{ FIXED : PERCENTILE([Member Profit], 1 - [Parameters].[Top N Pct]) }`
+4. **Bottom Threshold:** `{ FIXED : PERCENTILE([Member Profit], [Parameters].[Top N Pct]) }`
+5. **Tier Label:** IF/ELSEIF/ELSE as above
+6. **Member (Grouped):** `IF [Tier Label] = "Everyone Else" THEN "Everyone Else" ELSE [Sub-Category] END`
+7. **Rows:** `[Member (Grouped)]` — standouts stay individual, middle collapses
+8. **Cols:** `SUM([Profit])` (or `[Display Profit]` per the distortion guidance above)
+9. **Color:** `[Tier Label]`
+
+Result: per-member bars for top and bottom performers (green/red), one modest gray "Everyone Else" bar, profit-sorted. Moving the parameter re-buckets the standouts.

+# Parameters & What-If Scenario Bands
+
+Create a Tableau parameter, drive a reference line or a shaded scenario band from it, lay out a best / worst / expected what-if, and avoid the data-grain trap that makes a single scalar assumption silently wrong.
+
+The XML mechanics behind an adjustable assumption: the parameter itself, the reference line/band it feeds, and the actual-vs-estimate scaffold that turns a projection into an override.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine
+- In-scope reason: A "what-if" / scenario request is a parameter feeding a reference line or band — a distinct, verifiable XML shape. Documents the confirmed node structure so the agent builds it instead of inventing a non-existent `<reference-band>` element.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: parameter, what-if, scenario-band, reference-band, reference-line, best-worst-expected, expected-case, forecast-override, forecast-indicator, actual-vs-estimate, sensitivity, goal-seek, target-line, adjustable-target, paired-id, refband, param-domain-type, slider, data-grain
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "add a what-if slider", "let me change the assumption and see the impact", "show a best case and worst case band", "shade the region between two targets", "forecast override so I can adjust the projection", "scenario analysis", "add a target line I can adjust", "sensitivity analysis on the growth rate", "band between two parameters", "expected vs best vs worst", "goal seek to a number", "let users tweak the growth rate and watch the line move", "actual vs estimate on one line", "shade an acceptable range on the chart"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Reach for this when the request implies an **adjustable numeric assumption** the user wants to *see on the viz*:
+
+- "let me drag a slider for growth rate and watch the projection move" → parameter + a param-driven reference **line**.
+- "show the acceptable range / best–worst window" or "shade between the low and high target" → a reference **band** (two paired lines, filled).
+- "best / expected / worst case" → an expected line plus a best–worst band around it.
+- "forecast override — keep actuals, let me set the estimate" → the actual-vs-estimate ("Forecast Indicator") scaffold plus a parameter for the estimate.
+
+The tell: an input the user should be able to *change* (a target, a rate, a threshold) that must render as a line or shaded region — not a change to *which dimension value* is shown. If the ask is "switch the chart between Region / Segment / Metric on click", that is a categorical selector — use `tactics/dashboard/parameter-driven-views` instead. If they only want a static average/constant line, use `tactics/viz/filters`-adjacent `data/examples/reference-line.json` (no parameter needed).
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Build the parameter first; it is the spine.** A parameter lives as a `<column>` in the special `Parameters` datasource (name is always exactly `Parameters`). Everything downstream — the line value, the band edges, the estimate calc — reads `[Parameters].[<name>]`. Author it before the reference line so the `value-column` has something to point at.
+2. **A band is TWO paired reference lines, not a special node.** There is no `<reference-band>` element. Author two `<reference-line>` nodes that cross-reference via `paired-id`; the shaded fill of the region between them comes from a worksheet `<style-rule element='refband'>`. (Confirmed in `ww-ou-diff.xml` / `ww-ou-arrow.xml`.) A statistical spread band is instead a single `<reference-line>` with a distribution `formula` (`stdev`, `percentile`, `quantiles`, `confidence`) and `<reference-line-value>` children (confirmed in `control-chart-xmr.xml`).
+3. **Best / expected / worst = one line + one band.** Model "expected" as a param-driven reference line and "best/worst" as a paired band whose two edges are two more parameters. Each edge reads a parameter through `value-column='[Parameters].[<name>]'` — the corpus-confirmed way to make a line value follow a parameter (`pareto-chart.xml`).
+4. **Match the reference scope to the mark grain.** `scope` is `per-cell`, `per-pane`, or `per-table`. A per-row target (each category has its own target) needs `scope='per-cell'`; a single global target uses `per-table`. Mis-scoping is why a "target line" looks right at the total but wrong per bar.
+5. **Prefer `value-column='[Parameters].[…]'` over `reference-parameter`.** The XSD defines a `reference-parameter` attribute, but it does not appear in any corpus workbook; the confirmed, portable form points `value-column` at the parameter. Treat `reference-parameter` as schema-only until a real workbook confirms it.
+6. **A scalar parameter is uniform across the whole viz — respect the grain.** One `[Growth Rate]` parameter applies the *same* number to every mark. If the analysis needs different assumptions per segment (per-region growth, per-product target), a single parameter cannot express it — build an assumptions/scenario table in the data (one row per segment × scenario) and join/blend it, or map the scalar through a per-row calc. This is the UC4 "assumptions come off the data grain" caveat.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Inventing a `<reference-band>` element.** It does not exist in the TWB schema. Authoring one yields XML Tableau ignores or rejects. Use paired `<reference-line>` + `refband` style-rule, or a distribution reference-line.
+2. **Forgetting `paired-id` (or pairing to a wrong id).** Two lonely reference lines are just two lines — no fill between them. Each of the two nodes must carry `paired-id` pointing at the other's `id`, and the band fill `<style-rule element='refband'>` must target one of those ids.
+3. **Omitting a required attribute.** `<reference-line>` requires `id`, `axis-column`, `value-column`, `scope`, `label-type`, `z-order`, `formula`, and `enable-instant-analytics`. `formula` is required even for a param-driven line (use `average` on a scalar param — it resolves to the value).
+4. **Wrong scope for the target grain.** Using `per-table` when each category needs its own target (or vice-versa) misrepresents the comparison. Set `scope='per-cell'` for a per-mark target.
+5. **Expecting one scalar parameter to vary by dimension.** A single what-if % cannot encode per-region assumptions; users then wrongly read the uniform band as segment-specific. Use a scenario table when assumptions differ by grain.
+6. **Confusing a numeric what-if with a dimension switcher.** Driving a *value* (target, rate) is this entry; switching *which dimension value* the viz shows is a different mechanic (`tactics/dashboard/parameter-driven-views`, `tactics/dashboard/parameter-actions`).
+
+## Implementation
+
+All snippets below are grounded in `data/twb_2026.1.0.xsd` and named corpus workbooks; `[federated.XXXX]` is the datasource-id placeholder (as in `data/examples/reference-line.json`). Fuller JSON exemplars: `data/examples/parameter.json` and `data/examples/reference-band.json`.
+
+**1. Create the parameter** (a `<column>` in the `Parameters` datasource; confirmed shape from `data/examples/parameter.json` and the twb example index):
+
+```xml
+<datasource name="Parameters" inline="true">
+  <column caption="Growth Rate" datatype="real" name="[Parameter 1]"
+          param-domain-type="range" role="measure" type="quantitative" value="0.05">
+    <calculation class="tableau" formula="0.05"/>
+    <range granularity="0.01" min="-0.10" max="0.30"/>
+  </column>
+</datasource>
+```
+
+`param-domain-type` is `range` (min/max/granularity), `list` (explicit `<members>`), or `all` (unconstrained). The `value` attribute holds the current value; the `<calculation>` formula just echoes the default.
+
+**2. A parameter-driven reference LINE — the "expected" case** (confirmed: `pareto-chart.xml` uses `value-column='[Parameters].[…]'`):
+
+```xml
+<reference-line id="refline0" formula="average" scope="per-table" label-type="value"
+  axis-column="[federated.XXXX].[sum:Sales:qk]"
+  value-column="[Parameters].[Expected Target]"
+  z-order="1" enable-instant-analytics="true"/>
+```
+
+**3. A best/worst SCENARIO BAND — two paired param-driven lines + the fill rule** (structure confirmed in `ww-ou-diff.xml` / `ww-ou-arrow.xml`, edges param-driven per `pareto-chart.xml`):
+
+```xml
+<!-- inside panes > pane -->
+<reference-line id="refline1" formula="average" paired-id="refline2" scope="per-table"
+  label-type="value" symmetric="false"
+  axis-column="[federated.XXXX].[sum:Sales:qk]"
+  value-column="[Parameters].[Worst Case]"
+  z-order="1" enable-instant-analytics="true"/>
+<reference-line id="refline2" formula="average" paired-id="refline1" scope="per-table"
+  label-type="value" symmetric="false"
+  axis-column="[federated.XXXX].[sum:Sales:qk]"
+  value-column="[Parameters].[Best Case]"
+  z-order="1" enable-instant-analytics="true"/>
+```
+
+```xml
+<!-- in the worksheet <style>, to shade the region between refline1 and refline2 -->
+<style-rule element="refband">
+  <format attr="fill-color" id="refline1" value="#e6f2ff"/>
+</style-rule>
+```
+
+**4. A statistical distribution band** (single line, distribution edges as factors; confirmed in `control-chart-xmr.xml`) — use for a +/-nσ spread, not a user-driven what-if:
+
+```xml
+<reference-line id="refline1" formula="stdev" type="sample" scope="per-pane"
+  label-type="automatic" fill-above="false" fill-below="false" symmetric="false"
+  axis-column="[federated.XXXX].[sum:Profit:qk]"
+  value-column="[federated.XXXX].[sum:Profit:qk]"
+  z-order="2" enable-instant-analytics="false">
+  <reference-line-value factor="-3"/>
+  <reference-line-value factor="3"/>
+</reference-line>
+```
+
+**5. The forecast-override (actual-vs-estimate) scaffold.** For "keep actuals, let me set the estimate", tag each row Actual vs Estimate on a `Forecast Indicator` dimension so one line runs history into a parameterized projection. Confirmed manual-sort shape from the twb example index (Actual before Estimate):
+
+```xml
+<sort class="manual" column="[none:Forecast Indicator:nk]" direction="ASC">
+  <dictionary>
+    <bucket>&quot;Actual&quot;</bucket>
+    <bucket>&quot;Estimate&quot;</bucket>
+  </dictionary>
+</sort>
+```
+
+The `Forecast Indicator` field is a calc that returns `"Actual"` for observed rows and `"Estimate"` for projected rows; the projected measure reads the what-if parameter (e.g. `SUM([Actual]) * (1 + [Parameters].[Growth Rate])`). Put the indicator on Color to distinguish history from projection.
+
+**Verify:** open in Tableau after applying — set the parameter(s) to their extremes and confirm the line/band edges move and the shaded region fills between the paired lines. If the fill is missing, `paired-id` or the `refband` style-rule id is wrong; if the target sits at the total but not per mark, fix `scope`.

+# Parse Numbers Out of a Compound String Field — SPLIT/REGEXP, don't INT() the whole thing
+
+A field like `"PHI 40-22"` or `"SEA -4.5"` is a STRING holding numbers mixed with text. `INT()`/`FLOAT()` on the whole value returns NULL/0 (it can't cast the text), so any calc built on it silently computes to zero — e.g. a Gantt bar sized by it renders as a flat TICK, not a span.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: calculate, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Casting a compound/embedded-number string with INT()/FLOAT() yields NULL/0; the number must be SPLIT/REGEXP-extracted first. A calc that quietly computes to 0 makes bars flat, totals wrong, sizes invisible — with no error. Root-caused live (WOW2026 W23 gantt, 2026-07-03).
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: string-parsing, split, regexp-extract, compound-field, embedded-number, int-of-string, float-of-string, cast-string-to-number, null-calc, zero-calc, flat-bars, gantt-tick, score-string, extract-number, tokenize-field
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "my bars are flat / just ticks", "gantt bar has no length", "gantt bars are flat ticks with no length", "calc computes to zero", "INT of a string returns null", "extract the number from a text field", "parse the score out of a string like PHI 40-22", "field is 'TEAM 40-22', I need the total points", "split a field on a space or dash", "cast a string with text in it to a number", "my measure is 0 for every row", "why is my calculated field null", "get the digits out of a mixed text field"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Reach for this when a field holds a number **embedded in text** — a score `"PHI 40-22"`, a spread `"SEA -4.5"`, a label `"$1,234 / mo"`, an ID `"REG-0042"` — and you need the numeric part in a calc. The trap: `INT([Final])` / `FLOAT([Field])` on the whole compound string does NOT parse it — Tableau can't cast `"PHI 40-22"` to a number, so it returns NULL (or 0 in an arithmetic context). Every downstream calc then silently reads 0: sizes collapse to ticks, totals read zero, sorts break — with **no error message** (the tell is a viz that renders but is flat/empty/wrong).
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **SPLIT out the piece(s), THEN cast.** `INT(TRIM(SPLIT([Field], " ", 2)))` grabs the 2nd space-delimited token and casts THAT. Split on the actual delimiter (space, `-`, `/`, `,`).
+2. **For "A B-C" score strings, split twice.** e.g. total = `INT(SPLIT(SPLIT([Final]," ",2),"-",1)) + INT(SPLIT(SPLIT([Final]," ",2),"-",2))` — pull the `"40-22"`, then each side, then add.
+3. **Or REGEXP_EXTRACT the digits.** `INT(REGEXP_EXTRACT([Field], '(\d+)'))` for the first number; `REGEXP_EXTRACT_NTH` for the Nth.
+4. **Verify the calc is non-null on real rows** before building on it — if a bar/size/total looks flat or zero, check whether the source is a compound string you cast without parsing.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **`INT([CompoundString])` / `FLOAT([CompoundString])`.** Returns NULL/0 on `"PHI 40-22"`. This is the WOW2026 W23 gantt failure: a bar sized by `INT([Final]) - [O/U Line]` computed to ~`0 - line` for every row, so the "floating" bars rendered as flat ticks with no visible span.
+2. **Casting before splitting.** The cast must wrap the SPLIT result, not the raw field.
+3. **Assuming a rendered viz is correct.** A zero/null calc still draws marks (just flat/empty) — no error fires. Inspect the calc's values, not just "did it render."
+
+## Implementation in Tableau Desktop
+
+WRONG — casting the whole compound string (returns NULL/0, bars go flat):
+
+```
+Total Points = INT([Final])            // [Final] = "PHI 40-22" → NULL → arithmetic reads 0
+```
+
+RIGHT — SPLIT to the numeric token, then cast (and for "A 40-22", split twice + add):
+
+```
+Score Part   = SPLIT([Final], " ", 2)                       // "40-22"
+Winning Pts  = INT( SPLIT([Score Part], "-", 1) )           // 40
+Losing Pts   = INT( SPLIT([Score Part], "-", 2) )           // 22
+Total Points = [Winning Pts] + [Losing Pts]                 // 62  (usable in a Gantt size / axis)
+```
+
+Or with regex:

+# Period-over-Period: a Parameter-Switched Profit-by-Period Calc (DATEDIFF from max date), NOT a date filter
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Shows the DATEDIFF-from-max-date relative-window technique and blocks the invalid derivation form that crashes on load.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: period, period-over-period, month-quarter-year, relative-date, datediff, max-date, anchor-date, parameter-switched-period, profit-by-period, time-window, latest-period, period-selector-calc, make-the-period-selectable, period-switch, selectable-period, re-rank-per-period, CONTAINS-not-equals
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "switch the measure between this month, quarter, and year", "show profit for the latest month / quarter / year", "let me pick the period and the chart updates", "relative date window anchored to the most recent date", "period over period without a date filter", "DATEDIFF from the max date", "how do I make Month/Quarter/Year a parameter that drives the numbers", "make the period selectable", "add a parameter to switch the profit between the most recent Month, Quarter, and Year", "have the chart re-rank for the selected period", "click to change the period and re-sort the chart", "the standouts should change between periods"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Enforced-by: invalid-column-instance-pivot
+
+Use this when a requirement is **"show the measure for the selected period (month / quarter / year)"** and the period is chosen by a parameter — a common "top/bottom performers for the selected period" pattern. The period is expressed as a **row-level calc that keeps a row's value only when it falls in the chosen window relative to the latest date** — it is NOT a worksheet date filter and NOT a column-instance like `[none:Order Date:qk]` (that reference is invalid and crashes the load — see `invalid-column-instance-pivot`).
+
+**⇒ Wrong-fork check (the load-reject trap):** do NOT write `IF ( [Param] = "Month" AND … ) OR ( [Param] = "Quarter" AND … ) OR … THEN [Profit] END`. A list/string parameter compared with `=` inside a bare `IF ( … OR … )` boolean chain makes Tableau's loader coerce the parameter into a boolean slot, and the load is REJECTED with **"value 'Quarter' neither 'false' nor 'true'"** (a query-time load failure, invisible in XML that "looks" fine; repeated re-applies can destabilize Desktop). Use the branch form below — **`CONTAINS([Parameters].[Period], "Year")`** in a proper `IF … ELSEIF … ELSE … END`, not `=` in an OR-chain. And the interactivity half (click-to-set / re-rank per period) is a SEPARATE concern → [parameter-driven-views](data/knowledge/tactics/dashboard/parameter-driven-views.md): one parameter drives both display and the click action, and you MUST verify the chart actually changes per period (a view that looks identical for every value doesn't read the parameter).
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Anchor to the data's own latest date with an LOD, not "today".** `Max Date = {MAX([Order Date])}` — a FIXED-style anchor so the window is relative to the data, reproducible in a static extract like Sample-Superstore (where "this month" means the most recent month present, not the calendar month).
+2. **Express each period as a row-level DATEDIFF window, returning the measure or NULL.** `DATEDIFF('<grain>', [Order Date], [Max Date]) = 0` is true exactly when the row is in the same grain-bucket as the latest date. Wrap the measure in `IF … THEN [Profit] END` so out-of-window rows drop out.
+3. **Switch the grain with the parameter via CONTAINS, in one calc.** A single period measure reads the period parameter and picks the matching window — so every downstream view (chart, KPI, tier) recomputes from this one field when the parameter changes. This is the period SPINE (one calc, many consumers) — see `tactics/dashboard/parameter-driven-views`.
+4. **Build top/bottom membership off the period measure, not raw Profit**, so the standouts re-rank per period (LOD `{ INCLUDE [Sub-Category]: SUM([Period Measure]) }` — using the real dimension name, not a placeholder).
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Reaching for a date FILTER (or a `[none:Order Date:qk]` reference) to "filter to the period."** A dimension instance cannot be `:qk`; the reference is rejected on load ("field … does not exist") and repeated re-applies can destabilize Desktop. Use the row-level DATEDIFF calc instead — no date field goes on a shelf or filter at all.
+2. **Anchoring to `TODAY()`/`NOW()` in a static dataset.** Sample-Superstore's latest date is years in the past, so "this month" relative to today returns nothing (blank viz). Anchor to `{MAX([Order Date])}`.
+3. **One calc per period placed separately (Month sheet, Quarter sheet, Year sheet).** That's the N-static-copies anti-pattern and it can't be parameter-switched — collapse to one period-measure calc the parameter drives.
+4. **Forgetting the `END` / leaving the ELSE branch off** so non-window rows return 0 instead of NULL — 0s still draw bars; NULL drops them.
+
+## Implementation in Tableau Desktop
+
+Confirmed-working calcs (generic Superstore fields — substitute your measure/date and parameter names, keeping each name consistent everywhere it is referenced):
+
+```
+Max Date       = {MAX([Order Date])}
+
+Period Measure =
+  IF     CONTAINS([Parameters].[Period], "Year")    THEN (IF DATEDIFF('year',   [Order Date],[Max Date])=0 THEN [Profit] END)
+  ELSEIF CONTAINS([Parameters].[Period], "Quarter") THEN (IF DATEDIFF('quarter',[Order Date],[Max Date])=0 THEN [Profit] END)
+  ELSE                                                    (IF DATEDIFF('month',  [Order Date],[Max Date])=0 THEN [Profit] END) END
+```
+
+1. Author `Max Date` (an LOD; registers as a row-level-usable attribute).
+2. Author the period measure (`Period Measure` here — name it whatever you like, consistently) referencing `Max Date` and the `[Period]` parameter (a string list parameter: members `"Month"`, `"Quarter"`, `"Year"`, default `"Month"`). **Use `CONTAINS([Parameters].[Period], "Month")`, NOT `[Parameters].[Period] = "Month"` inside a bare `IF ( … OR … )` — the `=` form makes the loader coerce the string parameter into a boolean slot and the load is rejected with "value 'Quarter' neither 'false' nor 'true'".**
+3. Put `SUM([Period Measure])` on the shelf where the measure goes; the chart now follows the parameter.
+4. Verify by switching the parameter: the totals and the bar lengths change per period; no `<filter>` on a date field appears in the readback.

+# Rolling-Period & Previous-Value Table Calcs — Windows, Adjacent Windows & LOOKUP Along the Date
+
+A rolling-12-month total, a "same rolling window a year ago," a "previous value," and a "change over the period the user picks" are one primitive: a **table calculation that walks along the date marks in the view**. Because a table calc runs late and only sees the marks left after filtering, its **addressing (Compute Using) and partition are load-bearing** and its result is only as complete as the window kept in the view. This is the moving-window / `LOOKUP` half of period comparison; the calc-that-must-respond-to-the-date-filter half (order of operations, `DATEADD`, valid date derivations) is the year-over-year companion, and the parameter-switched Month/Quarter/Year selector is the period-over-period companion.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user / SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: calculate, create, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Gives the correct mechanic and addressing for rolling-window aggregates (rolling 12-month current vs prior year, adjacent rolling windows), previous-value references (`LOOKUP(-1)`/`PREVIOUS_VALUE`), and "change over varying/selected periods," including the partition-edge nulls and marks-in-view limits that make these silently wrong.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: rolling-window, moving-window, rolling-12-months, trailing-window, window-sum, window-avg, lookup, previous-value, prior-value, adjacent-windows, addressing, compute-using, partition-edge-null, varying-time-periods, offset
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "rolling 12 months current year compared to rolling 12 months prior year", "rolling 12-month against the next rolling 12-month", "compare two adjacent rolling 12 month windows", "trailing 12 months vs prior 12 months", "table calculation previous value", "reference the previous period's value", "LOOKUP minus one previous value", "show change over varying time periods", "moving window sum along the date", "rolling window returns null at the start", "my rolling total restarts on the wrong dimension", "previous value is blank on the first row", "window sum wrong when I re-sort"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this when the requirement walks along a **date axis in the view** and reads other marks:
+
+- A **rolling / trailing window** (rolling 12 months, moving sum/average) and a comparison of it to the **same window a year earlier** or to an **adjacent** window (e.g. Feb2023–Feb2022 vs Feb2022–Feb2021).
+- A **previous-period value** (`LOOKUP(SUM(x), -1)`), a difference-from-previous, or an index-to-first.
+- **"Change over varying/selected time periods,"** where the *comparison window* is positional. If the user wants to *pick* the grain (Month/Quarter/Year) and drive the whole view, that is the parameter-switched period spine — see the period-over-period companion; if the comparison value must **recompute from the date filter itself**, see the year-over-year companion.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **A rolling window is `WINDOW_SUM`/`WINDOW_AVG` with explicit bounds, addressed along the date.** Trailing 12 months *including* the current month is `WINDOW_SUM(SUM([Sales]), -11, 0)` — eleven back plus current, **not** `-12`. Set Compute Using to the date dimension via **Specific Dimensions** in any view with more than one dimension; the Table/Pane default guesses and restarts on the wrong dimension the moment a second dimension is present.
+2. **Rolling current-year vs prior-year — pick the mechanic deliberately.** Two correct shapes: (a) a **table-calc offset** — `WINDOW_SUM(SUM([Sales]),-11,0) - LOOKUP(WINDOW_SUM(SUM([Sales]),-11,0), -12)` addressed along month, which requires all comparison months to be present in the view; or (b) a **`DATEADD`/`DATEDIFF` aggregate** that flags rows in the trailing-12 window ending at the anchor date vs the trailing-12 ending a year earlier, which survives a date filter better because it is not positional. Anchor "current" to `{MAX([Order Date])}`, not `TODAY()`, in a static extract.
+3. **Adjacent rolling windows require explicit addressing.** Two windows that abut (this trailing-12 vs the previous trailing-12) are **shifted windows** — `WINDOW_SUM(agg, -23, -12)` vs `WINDOW_SUM(agg, -11, 0)`, or two `DATEDIFF`-from-anchor row-level flags. Shifted windows (bounds that don't include the current mark) are in the "must set Specific Dimensions and verify" group — never trust the Table-Across default for them.
+4. **"Previous value" is `LOOKUP(SUM([measure]), -1)`.** It addresses along the sort/date; there is no `FIRST_VALUE`/`LAST_VALUE` — use `LOOKUP(agg, FIRST())`/`LOOKUP(agg, LAST())`. `PREVIOUS_VALUE(seed)` is for a self-referencing running calc, not a generic prior-period read. **Partition edges return Null**: `LOOKUP(...,-1)` and windowed offsets are Null at the first/last marks — wrap in `ZN()`/`IFNULL()` only when a 0 is genuinely meant (a 0 draws a mark; a Null drops it).
+5. **Table calcs only see the marks left in the view.** A dimension date filter that removes the comparison window breaks `LOOKUP`/rolling silently (the prior window has no marks to look back to). Keep the comparison window **in** the view with a relative filter (e.g. last 24 months) and limit *display* separately, or convert to a `FIXED`/`DATEADD` aggregate that is computed before the dimension filter.
+6. **Pin the sort — every one of these follows the view's order.** `RUNNING_*`, `WINDOW_*`, `LOOKUP`, `INDEX` accumulate/step in the order marks appear, set by the worksheet sort, not the formula. A rolling window on an unsorted or descending date axis walks the wrong way; make the date sort explicit and ascending.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Trusting the default Compute Using** for a rolling/`LOOKUP` calc in a multi-dimension view — it restarts on the wrong dimension. Set Specific Dimensions to the date and verify.
+2. **Filtering the prior window out of the view**, then `LOOKUP(-1)` / rolling PY returns Null. Keep both windows in view; filter display, not the comparison window.
+3. **Off-by-one bounds** — trailing 12 months is `(-11, 0)`, not `(-12, 0)`; adjacent prior window is `(-23, -12)`.
+4. **Using a date *part* (`MONTH()`) where a continuous value/truncation is needed** — a part collapses years into 12 buckets, so the window has no continuous order to walk (and years stop being distinct).
+5. **N separate sheets per period** instead of one calc — can't be re-driven; for a *selectable* period use the parameter-switched period spine, not copies.
+6. **Treating shifted / `FIRST()` / `LAST()` windows like trailing windows** — they depend entirely on addressing and partition edges; set Specific Dimensions and check the edge marks.
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. Classify the requirement: rolling/moving window, previous-value, or a *selectable* period (→ period-over-period companion).
+2. Pick the mechanic: a positional table calc (`WINDOW_*`, `LOOKUP`) when the comparison is relative to marks in the view; a `DATEADD`/`DATEDIFF` aggregate when it must survive a date filter.
+3. Set Compute Using **explicitly** along the date dimension; pin the date sort ascending.
+4. Keep the comparison window in the view (relative last-N filter); handle edge Nulls with `ZN()`/`IFNULL()` only where a 0 is meant.
+5. Anchor "current" to `{MAX([Order Date])}` in static extracts.
+6. Verify by reading back numbers at the window edges (first period, the CY/PY boundary) — a table calc that renders is not necessarily walking the intended partition.

+# Round-trip Normalization of Calc-Field XML
+
+What you write with `apply-workbook` is not bit-exact what `get-workbook-xml` returns. Tableau's save pass applies several idempotent normalizations to calc-field XML. Knowing them up front avoids wasted time comparing "pre-apply vs post-apply" XML and mistaking cosmetic rewrites for semantic drift.
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: troubleshoot, validate
+- In-scope reason: Explains how Tableau rewrites calc-field XML on save so Claude can distinguish cosmetic changes from semantic failures when verifying an apply result.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: round-trip-normalization, formula-rewrite, caption-to-internal-name, multi-line-formulas, xml-attribute-escaping, column-reordering, dependency-graph-lazy-resolution, data-pane-invalid-flash, character-references
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "formula changed after save", "caption reference became internal name", "multi-line formula collapsed to one line", "&#10; newline in formula", "columns alphabetically reordered", "invalid datasources warning after apply", "THEN ELSEIF alignment conventions", "activate-sheet forces evaluation"
+
+## 1. Caption references in formulas get rewritten to internal names on save
+
+A formula authored as `{ FIXED [Customer ID] : SUM([Sales]) }` against a datasource where those fields have `name='[R9M_FX_CUST_K]' caption='Customer ID'` and `name='[M_Q1_SLS]' caption='Sales'` is saved as `{ FIXED [R9M_FX_CUST_K] : SUM([M_Q1_SLS]) }`. The rewrite happens on the save/validation pass after the first apply that completes validation. Same for calc-to-calc references: an authored `STR([R Quintile]) + STR([F Quintile])` becomes `STR([Calculation_<id>]) + STR([Calculation_<id>])` in the stored XML.
+
+**Authoring guidance** (from observed UI behavior, not just XML parsing): **author with internal names directly** rather than relying on caption resolution. Caption-authored formulas can produce transient "invalid" Data-pane flags between the first apply and Tableau's full validation cycle (even when `list-available-fields` shows the calc compiled and typed correctly). Internal-name formulas are immediately canonical; no round-trip needed to stabilize.
+
+Earlier notes in this file and elsewhere that claimed "captions are preserved verbatim" were observations from an intermediate state where the validation cycle hadn't completed; they did not reflect the eventual saved form and have been corrected.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Literal whitespace in a formula attribute IS collapsed — but character references survive
+
+This is an XML 1.0 attribute-value normalization rule (Section 3.3.3), **not** a Tableau quirk. Any literal `\n`/`\r`/`\t` inside a `formula="..."` attribute value is normalized to a single space on parse. Character references for the same characters (`&#10;` for LF, `&#9;` for tab) are **not** subject to that normalization and round-trip intact through Tableau's save pass.
+
+**Wrong** — writes literal newlines, which the XML parser collapses before Tableau ever sees them:
+```python
+formula = """IF [R Quintile] >= 4 THEN 'Champions'
+ELSEIF [R Quintile] <= 2 THEN 'At Risk'
+ELSE 'Middle' END"""
+# → saved as: IF [R Quintile] >= 4 THEN 'Champions' ELSEIF [R Quintile] <= 2 THEN 'At Risk' ELSE 'Middle' END
+```
+
+**Right** — use numeric character references for structural whitespace:
+```python
+def esc_formula(s):
+    s = s.replace("&", "&amp;").replace("<", "&lt;").replace("'", "&apos;")
+    s = s.replace("\t", "&#9;").replace("\n", "&#10;")
+    return s
+
+formula = esc_formula("""// Named RFM segment derived from quintiles.
+IF     [R Quintile] >= 4 AND [F Quintile] >= 4 AND [M Quintile] >= 4 THEN 'Champions'
+ELSEIF [R Quintile] >= 4 AND [F Quintile] <= 2                        THEN 'New Customers'
+ELSE                                                                        'Middle Tier'
+END""")
+# → saved with &#10; intact; Tableau's formula editor displays it multi-line with // comments.
+```
+
+Tableau's formula language uses `//` for line comments — use them liberally to explain the analytical intent (named concept, why nested LOD, why the comparison flipped, why the magic threshold). Good comments survive every round-trip and are the cheapest form of institutional memory you can leave in a workbook.
+
+**Real-world confirmation**: multiple Tableau Public workbooks (Trellis Chart examples, etc.) use the `&#10;` pattern for multi-line formulas with `// Rows` / `// Columns` comments — search for `formula=.*&#10;` across the example corpus.
+
+**Formatting conventions** (reverse-engineered from diffing agent-authored calcs against UI-edited versions of the same formula):
+
+- **Break after `THEN` / `ELSE` / `ELSEIF` and indent the branch body on its own line.** Do NOT column-align branch results with horizontal padding. Example of what NOT to do:
+  ```
+  IF [Calculation_...500005] >= 4 AND [Calculation_...500006] >= 4 THEN 'Champions'
+  ELSEIF [Calculation_...500005] >= 4 AND [Calculation_...500006] <= 2        THEN 'New Customers'
+  ```
+  This looks aligned when you author it, but the Tableau formula editor toggles between `[Calculation_<16 digits>]` internal names and their `[Caption]` display forms, and those have very different widths. Any column alignment you bake in with spaces will appear crooked in one of the two views. The robust form is break-after-keyword:
+  ```
+  IF     [Calculation_...500005] >= 4
+     AND [Calculation_...500006] >= 4 THEN
+      'Champions'
+  ELSEIF [Calculation_...500005] >= 4
+     AND [Calculation_...500006] <= 2 THEN
+      'New Customers'
+  ...
+  ELSE
+      'Middle Tier'
+  END
+  ```
+- **Blank line (`&#10;&#10;`) between the leading comment block and the first line of code** — visual separation of documentation from logic.
+- **Comments describe analytical intent, not authoring mechanics.** Good: `// Days since each customer's last order. Smaller = more recent.` Bad: `// References the Monetary (Sales) calc field by its internal Calculation_ name.` The second is a note to your past self about XML authoring; the analyst reading the calc in Tableau doesn't need it and it adds noise.
+- **Single-branch `IF`s need no alignment at all** — just `IF cond THEN 'a' ELSE 'b' END` on one line if it fits, or `IF cond THEN&#10;    'a'&#10;ELSE&#10;    'b'&#10;END` if you want it vertical.
+
+---
+
+## 3. XML attribute quoting + character escaping is normalized
+
+Regardless of what you wrote, Tableau re-emits attributes with single quotes and entity-escapes inline quotes and `<`/`>`:
+```
+# authored
+formula="DATEDIFF('day', [Last Order Date], TODAY())"
+
+# saved
+formula='DATEDIFF(&apos;day&apos;, [Last Order Date], TODAY())'
+```
+Comparison operators inside formulas round-trip as entities: `<=` → `&lt;=`, `>=` → `&gt;=`. Idempotent after the first save.
+
+---
+
+## 4. `<column>` children of a datasource are alphabetically re-sorted on save
+
+If you insert new calc-field `<column>` elements after `</object-graph>` for diff control (or anywhere else in the datasource block), Tableau will move them into alphabetical position among the existing column children. `[Calculation_2026...]` calc-field columns land in the `C…` range. This means:
+- Insertion position within the datasource is advisory only.
+- A diff between "workbook I just applied" and `get-workbook-xml` after apply will *always* show calc-field columns moving, even when nothing semantically changed. Compare *post-save* to *post-save* for semantic drift checks.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Dependency graph is built lazily; the Data pane briefly flashes "invalid" before resolution completes
+
+When an apply introduces a multi-level calc chain (e.g. 4-deep: `RFM Tier` → `R Quintile` → `Recency (Days)` → `Last Order Date`), the Data pane UI may show an "invalid datasources" warning for a short window after the apply call has already returned success. This is a UI/metadata-service timing artifact, not a real failure. See `expertise://tableau/tactics/workflow/recovery` for how to distinguish this from an actual silent-apply-failure and the corrective action (`activate-sheet` forces a full evaluation cycle; raw `tabdoc:goto-sheet` is refused at the execute boundary).
+
+---
+
+## 6. Removing a `<column>` via a document round-trip load is silently ignored
+
+Live-proven (2026-07-19, Desktop main.26.0715): deleting a `<column>` node from a datasource and posting the edited document back with workbook document apply reports `completed`, but the column survives — it is NOT removed. Column ADDS and worksheet-content rewrites apply normally; column DELETES no-op silently. Do not attempt to "clean up" calc fields by round-tripping a document with the column removed — `get-workbook-xml` readback will show the column still present. There is currently no confirmed document-round-trip path to delete a calc column; treat the channel as append-only for columns until a removal path is verified.
+
+## When to Use
+
+Read this module when you are:
+- Comparing pre-apply XML against `get-workbook-xml` output and seeing differences you didn't author (column re-ordering, attribute re-quoting, formula caption-to-internal-name rewrites).
+- Authoring multi-line calc formulas and need them to display as multi-line in Tableau's formula editor.
+- Debugging why a freshly-applied calc shows a red error in the Data pane even though the formula validates.
+- Building diff-based regression checks that need to compare semantically meaningful changes (compare *post-save* to *post-save*, not *pre-apply* to *post-save*).
+
+For calc-field authoring fundamentals (column structure, parameters, table calcs), see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/calc-fields`.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Author formulas with internal names** (`SUM([M_Q1_SLS])`), not captions (`SUM([Sales])`). Internal-name formulas are immediately canonical; caption-authored formulas can transiently flag invalid in the Data pane until Tableau's validation cycle completes.
+- **Use `&#10;` (newline character reference) — never literal `\n`** — inside `formula="..."` attributes for multi-line formulas. Literal whitespace is collapsed by the XML parser before Tableau ever sees it.
+- **Always compare post-save to post-save for semantic-drift detection.** The first save normalizes attribute quoting, formula text, and column ordering; comparing pre-apply to post-save will surface cosmetic differences as false positives.
+- **Use Tableau formula `//` comments to capture analytical intent.** They round-trip through every save and are the cheapest form of institutional memory.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Pasting a multi-line Python triple-quoted formula directly into `formula="..."`.** XML attribute normalization collapses the literal newlines to single spaces; Tableau receives a single-line formula and the formula editor renders it on one line. Use `&#10;` instead.
+2. **Comparing pre-apply XML to `get-workbook-xml` output and panicking at the diff.** Tableau will reorder `<column>` children alphabetically, rewrite `formula='...'` attribute quoting, and substitute `&apos;` for inline single quotes. None of those are semantic changes. Compare two consecutive `get-workbook-xml` outputs instead.
+3. **Authoring calc names with custom strings** (`[R Score]`, `[Is Selected Genre]`) instead of `[Calculation_<digits>]`. The XML parser accepts the column but Tableau's formula-validation UI flags the field "invalid" in the Data pane.
+4. **Authoring formulas with caption references and assuming they survive.** They get rewritten to internal names on the next save pass. Author with internal names from the start to avoid the transient "invalid" flag.
+5. **Treating the Data pane's "invalid datasources" warning as fatal.** For multi-level calc chains it's usually a transient lazy-resolution artifact. Force evaluation with `activate-sheet` or wait for the validation cycle (a few seconds) before declaring failure.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. **Always escape formula text before injecting into XML.** A small helper:
+   ```python
+   def esc_formula(s):
+       s = s.replace("&", "&amp;").replace("<", "&lt;").replace("'", "&apos;")
+       s = s.replace("\t", "&#9;").replace("\n", "&#10;")
+       return s
+   ```
+2. **Use `[Calculation_<digits>]` internal names** for calc-field column `name` attributes (single underscore, contiguous run of digits). Move human-readable labels to the `caption` attribute.
+3. **Reference fields in formulas by internal name** (the column's `name` attribute, with surrounding brackets), not by caption.
+4. **For diff-based validation pipelines:** snapshot the workbook with `get-workbook-xml` immediately after every apply, then diff snapshot N against snapshot N+1. Differences that appear only in pre-apply-vs-post-save are normalization artifacts and should be filtered out.
+5. **For multi-level calc chains, expect a brief "invalid" Data-pane flash after apply.** Either wait for resolution to complete or force it with `activate-sheet` before treating the warning as a real failure.

+# Sets in Tableau: What They Are, How to Create Them, and When to Use Them
+
+Enforcement: judgment-only
+
+---
+
+## ⚠ Sets Do NOT Survive MCP metadata-apply — Agent-Authored Sets Are Lost
+
+**Evidence (2026-07-06):** Workbook document apply silently drops `<groups>` (set definitions) from the workbook XML. A set authored via XML (`<group>…<groupfilter>…`) appears to apply successfully (no error), but the round-tripped workbook contains no set — the `<groups>` section is stripped. Any calc referencing the set (`[Top Set]`, `[Bottom Set]`) then fails to resolve, producing a blank viz.
+
+**This means agents authoring workbooks via the MCP apply pipeline CANNOT use sets for membership labeling.** The documented top/bottom-N standout pattern below remains correct for **human-driven Desktop use** (creating sets via the UI persists them normally), but an agent attempting the same pattern via `apply-workbook` will lose the sets on round-trip.
+
+**Agent alternative:** Use the **LOD tier calc recipe** for parameter-driven top/bottom/everyone-else membership — pure `<column><calculation>` nodes survive the apply round-trip. See `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/lod-membership-tier-calc`.
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau users building dashboards and workbooks
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, calculate, interact
+- In-scope reason: Sets are a core but underused Tableau feature. Users frequently reach for groups, filters, or complex calculated fields to accomplish what a set handles more cleanly and performantly. This guidance closes that gap.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: sets, set actions, combined sets, filters, groups, boolean, cohort, interactivity, calculated fields, order of operations, dynamic segmentation, top-n, top-and-bottom-n, parameter-driven-set, standouts, performers, sets-do-not-persist-apply
+- Expected agent behavior: When a user asks about segmenting members of a dimension, building cohort comparisons, adding interactivity, writing a boolean-style calculation, or showing the top/bottom N (especially with a parameter controlling the count), Claude should recognize sets as a candidate and explain when they are the right choice — BUT for agent-authored workbooks via MCP apply, redirect to `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/lod-membership-tier-calc` because sets do not survive the apply round-trip.
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how do I highlight a subset of my data", "how do I compare two groups", "set vs group", "set vs filter", "set action", "dynamic segment", "cohort comparison", "create set Tableau", "add a parameter/control to choose how many top items", "let me pick how many top and bottom performers to show", "show the top N and bottom N with a slider", "a control for the number of standouts at each end", "top and bottom profit performers with a count parameter", "dynamic top N set driven by a parameter", "roll the unremarkable middle into a single Everyone Else bar", "group the middle sub-categories into one Everyone Else / Other bar", "collapse the non-standout members into one aggregated bar", "everyone else rollup bar sized by its own value", "show only the standouts and bucket the rest", "combine the middle rows into one bar mid-sorted by value", "sets lost after apply", "set definitions dropped"
+- Suggested golden task: Ask Claude to help a user highlight top 10 customers vs. all others on a bar chart — Claude should suggest a set, not a group or a calculated field.
+- Safe refusal condition: n/a
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when:
+
+- A user wants to segment members of a dimension into two groups (in/out) for comparison, filtering, or highlighting
+- A user asks how to make their dashboard respond to clicks (set actions)
+- A user is building a boolean-style reference in a calculation and wants good performance
+- A user is comparing a cohort against a baseline (e.g., top customers vs. all customers)
+- A user is reaching for a group or complex calculated field for something a set handles more cleanly
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Tableau users building workbooks in Tableau Desktop or web authoring
+- Any analysis where binary membership in a defined segment matters
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### What a Set Is
+
+A set is a named, binary custom field defined on a single dimension. Every member of that dimension is either **IN** or **OUT** of the set. That binary nature is what makes sets composable and analytically powerful — they behave consistently whether used as a filter, on the marks card, in a calculation, or as the basis for dashboard interactivity.
+
+Sets appear in the Data pane under a **Sets** section (indicated by a Venn diagram icon).
+
+### Where Sets Can Be Used
+
+| Usage | How |
+|---|---|
+| Filter | Drag to Filters shelf — show only IN members, only OUT, or both |
+| Color / Shape / Size | Drag to Marks card — encode IN vs OUT visually |
+| Rows / Columns | Place in the view as a dimension — creates an IN/OUT axis |
+| Calculations | Reference by name: `[My Set]` returns TRUE (IN) or FALSE (OUT) |
+| Set Actions | Dashboard action that adds/removes members from a set on click |
+
+### How to Create a Set
+
+**Option 1 — From the Data pane:**
+Right-click any dimension → **Create Set**. This opens the full Create Set dialog with three tabs:
+
+- **General** — manually check individual members to include. Can also be used to exclude specific members from an otherwise computed set.
+- **Condition** — rule-based membership: include members where a measure meets a condition (e.g., SUM(Sales) > 100,000).
+- **Top** — top or bottom N members by a measure, or by formula.
+
+The tabs can be used together. For example: use **Top** to define the top 10 by revenue, then use **General** to manually exclude a specific member from that top 10.
+
+**Option 2 — From a selection in the view:**
+Select one or more marks in the viz → right-click → **Create Set**. This creates a fixed (static) set from the current selection. Members can be edited later through the Data pane.
+
+### Choosing a Set vs. a Group vs. a Filter
+
+| Need | Right tool |
+|---|---|
+| Reusable binary segment, referenced in calculations | Set |
+| Dashboard interactivity (click to add/remove members) | Set + Set Action |
+| Cohort comparison (segment vs. all) | Set |
+| Simple label renaming or ad-hoc bucketing | Group |
+| Temporary row restriction with no reuse | Filter |
+| Dynamic membership based on measure thresholds | Set (Condition tab) |
+| Dynamic top N with cross-sheet reuse | Set (Top tab) |
+
+Use a set when:
+- Membership needs to be dynamic (condition or top N)
+- You want user-driven interactivity (set actions)
+- You need a boolean reference in a calculation — sets evaluate as TRUE/FALSE and are performant
+- Cardinality is binary by design (in/out is the right frame)
+- You are doing a cohort comparison
+
+A static set (General tab, fixed members) is still preferable to a group when the segment will be used in calculations or as a set action target — groups cannot do either.
+
+### Combined Sets
+
+Two sets defined on the **same dimension** can be combined into a new set. Right-click either set → **Create Combined Set**. Options:
+
+- All members in both sets (union)
+- Shared members only (intersection)
+- Members in Set 1 but not Set 2 (except)
+- Members in Set 2 but not Set 1 (except, reversed)
+
+Combined sets require both source sets to be on the same dimension. There is no native way to combine sets across different dimensions.
+
+### Set Actions
+
+Set actions allow dashboard users to update set membership by clicking, hovering, or selecting marks. This is the primary mechanism for building highlight-and-compare interactivity without writing complex calculations.
+
+Setup: **Dashboard menu → Actions → Add Action → Change Set Values**. Assign a source sheet, **run on** Hover/Select/Menu (Select is typical), the **target set**, the **on-run** behavior (Assign = replace / Add / Remove), and the **on-clear** behavior (Keep / Add all / Remove all). The on-run + on-clear pair is what distinguishes the patterns below.
+
+**Advanced patterns (net-new — these are the high-value set-action techniques):**
+
+- **Proportional brushing** — select a subset and instantly see its share of the whole. Put the set on **Color** (splitting marks into IN/OUT); set the action to **Assign on select + Add-all on clear**. Selecting marks recolors them as IN against the full total, so the "contribution to total" reads directly. (`Show In/Out of Set` does the static version of this split; Server/Cloud support In/Out aggregation.)
+- **Asymmetric drill-down** — expand detail for only the selected branch, leaving the rest collapsed. Drive a calc off set membership: `IF [Category Set] THEN [Sub-Category] ELSE [Category] END` on the shelf, with the action set to **Remove-all on clear**. Clicking a category drills it to sub-category while siblings stay at the category level — no full cross-product expansion.
+- **Selection-driven recompute** — because a set is boolean in calcs, a set action can drive a recomputed color scale, a relative-date window, or a "compare selection vs rest" measure (`SUM(IF [Sel] THEN [Sales] END)` vs `SUM(IF NOT [Sel] THEN [Sales] END)`) — interactivity without parameters.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Reaching for groups or calculated fields when a set would work.** Groups cannot be referenced in calculations and don't support set actions. Calculated fields that replicate binary segmentation (e.g., `IF SUM([Sales]) > 100000 THEN "High" ELSE "Low" END`) are more verbose, less composable, and slower than a set.
+
+2. **Trying to build a set across two dimensions.** Sets are defined on a single dimension only. If you need to segment on a combination of two fields (e.g., customers in a specific region who also bought a specific product), pre-compute the combination in a calculated field or the data layer, then build the set on that field.
+
+3. **Expecting a set to respect table calculations.** Sets evaluate at step 4 of Tableau's order of operations — before dimension filters (step 5) and well before table calculations (step 8). A set condition cannot reference a table calculation result; if that logic is needed, the calculation must be moved earlier in the order of operations (e.g., a FIXED LOD or a data source–level computation).
+
+4. **Assuming a condition/Top set re-evaluates live when nothing triggers it.** A Condition or Top set recomputes on **data refresh** and when a **parameter it references** changes — but NOT on its own. So a parameter-driven condition updates dynamically as the user moves the parameter, while a non-parameter condition on a static extract reflects the data only as of the last refresh, not a live query. Know which case you're in before promising "it updates automatically."
+
+5. **Combining sets from different dimensions.** The combined set dialog requires both sets to be on the same dimension. Attempting to combine across dimensions is a common source of confusion — the option simply won't appear or will error.
+
+6. **Treating a static set like a persistent user preference.** Sets have no native session persistence. A set action changes membership only for the current session; if the user closes and reopens the workbook, the set reverts to its default definition. For persistent personalization, the logic needs to be stored in an external data source and joined in.
+
+## Implementation
+
+**Creating a condition-based set (step by step):**
+
+1. In the Data pane, right-click the dimension you want to segment → **Create Set**
+2. Name the set clearly (e.g., "High-Value Customers")
+3. Go to the **Condition** tab → select **By field** → choose the measure (e.g., Sales), aggregation (SUM), and threshold (e.g., greater than 100,000)
+4. Click **OK** — the set appears in the Data pane under Sets
+5. Drag the set to the **Color** mark or **Filters** shelf to use it immediately
+
+**Creating a top N set:**
+
+1. Right-click the dimension → **Create Set**
+2. Name it (e.g., "Top 10 Customers by Sales")
+3. Go to the **Top** tab → select **By field** → set count (10), choose the measure (Sales) and aggregation (SUM)
+4. Optionally go to **General** to manually exclude any specific members from the top N
+5. Click **OK**
+
+**Top AND Bottom N driven by a parameter (the top/bottom-N standout pattern):**
+
+> **⚠ Agent-authoring caveat:** The XML pattern below works for **human-driven Desktop use** (creating sets via the UI). **Agents authoring via MCP apply CANNOT use this pattern** — sets are silently dropped on round-trip (see warning at the top of this file). Agents must use the LOD tier calc recipe instead: `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/lod-membership-tier-calc`.
+
+To show the few best and worst performers — with the count controlled by a parameter and everything else rolled into "Everyone Else" — use TWO Top-tab sets on the same dimension, one `end='top'` and one `end='bottom'`, both counting by a parameter, then a label calc (this is the correct membership construct, NOT a RANK calc). The example below uses the generic Superstore `[Sub-Category]` dimension ordered by `SUM([Sales])`; substitute your own dimension and ordering measure.
+
+**⇒ CRITICAL — the count parameter must be a REAL, well-formed parameter, and the set's `count=` must reference its EXACT name.** Two failure modes, both producing **"The filter limit expression is invalid" (0x8790065E)** at QUERY time (the set APPLIES fine, then fails to compute — invisible in XML that "looks" complete):
+> 1. **Malformed param** — the count column lacks `param-domain-type` + (`value=` or `<calculation>`). A bare `<column datatype='integer' name='...' role='measure' type='quantitative'/>` is a field stub, not a parameter.
+> 2. **NAME MISMATCH** — the set's `count=` names a parameter that was never declared under that name, because the parameter got created under a different name than the one the count references. **Pick ONE real name and use that SAME literal name in both the `<column>` declaration and every `count=` reference** — copy the exact `[Top N]` from the block below, or choose your own real name and use it consistently. The name in `count=` must be a parameter you actually declared. Do NOT emit any placeholder, ellipsis, or angle-bracket token as the name — whatever string sits inside the brackets is looked up verbatim, and a non-existent name fails to compute. (Observed live: agents pointed `count=` at names that were never declared — a leftover template token, an ellipsis copied from prose, or Tableau's auto-generated parameter name that didn't match — and looped on 8790065E. One consistent, real, declared name is the fix.)
+
+**Declare the count parameter FIRST** (in the `Parameters` datasource), then the sets — copy this block and keep the chosen name identical throughout (`[Top N]` here is illustrative; use whatever name you like, but the *same* one in both spots):
+
+```xml
+<!-- 1. the count PARAMETER — declare it ONCE, well-formed, in the Parameters datasource -->
+<column caption='Top N' datatype='integer' name='[Top N]'
+        param-domain-type='range' role='measure' type='quantitative' value='5'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='5' />
+  <range granularity='1' max='20' min='1' />
+</column>
+
+<!-- 2. the Top set — count= references the EXACT SAME name declared above -->
+<group caption='Top Set' name='[Top Set]' name-style='unqualified' user:ui-builder='filter-group'>
+  <groupfilter count='[Parameters].[Top N]' end='top' function='end' units='records'>
+    <groupfilter direction='DESC' expression='SUM([Sales])' function='order'>
+      <groupfilter function='level-members' level='[Sub-Category]' />
+    </groupfilter>
+  </groupfilter>
+</group>
+<!-- Bottom set: identical but end='bottom' (caption "Bottom Set"), SAME count= name -->
+```
+
+Then a label calc turns the two booleans into three groups (drop this on Color for the discrete tier — see `redundant-color-encoding`):
+
+```
+Top or Bottom =
+  IF [Top Set] THEN "Top"
+  ELSEIF [Bottom Set] THEN "Bottom"
+  ELSE "Everyone Else" END
+```
+
+**⇒ This label calc IS the "Everyone Else" rollup — do NOT reinvent it.** When the ask is
+"roll the unremarkable middle into a single Everyone Else bar," the answer is: put this
+`Top or Bottom` dimension on Rows (instead of raw Sub-Category), so the viz grain becomes
+Top / Bottom / Everyone Else and the middle members aggregate into ONE bar automatically —
+sized by their combined value, mid-sorted. Do NOT hand-roll a RANK table-calc, a PERCENTILE
+threshold, or a FIXED LOD to compute membership — those are the failure path (they don't
+re-rank live, and a self-referential FIXED LOD evaluates to a constant). The two Top-tab
+sets + this label calc are the whole mechanism: membership (the sets), the three-way bucket
+(this calc), and the rollup (putting this calc on the grain) are the SAME construct, built
+once and reused for color, sort, and the Everyone-Else bar.
+
+**⇒ CRITICAL last step — the rollup ONLY collapses if the label calc is the ONLY dimension
+on the grain.** Adding the label calc is NOT enough: you must also REMOVE raw `[Sub-Category]`
+from Rows AND from Detail/Color/anywhere in the view. If `[Sub-Category]` (or any other
+member-level dimension) lingers anywhere on the marks card, the grain stays fine and the
+middle renders as individual bars — the exact failure symptom "shows all sub-categories
+individually, no rolled-up Everyone Else bar." Checklist to verify the rollup rendered:
+(1) the label calc `[Top or Bottom]` is on Rows; (2) raw `[Sub-Category]` is on NO shelf
+(rows/cols/detail/color/tooltip); (3) the measure (`SUM([Profit])`) is aggregated across the
+group; (4) the result shows exactly 3 marks (Top, Everyone Else, Bottom), not 17. If you see
+17 bars, `[Sub-Category]` is still in the view — remove it; do NOT rebuild the sets (they are
+fine). Rebuilding/deleting the sets when the real problem is a leftover dimension is a
+thrash-to-zero dead end (observed live 2026-07-01: sets went 2→11→4→0 chasing a rollup that
+just needed `[Sub-Category]` removed).
+
+(RANK isn't wrong in general — it's the wrong tool *here*. Membership → sets; a displayed rank *value* or positional math → RANK/table-calc. See [Membership vs. Value](data/knowledge/strategy/analytics/calc-fields-strategy.md#membership-vs-value).)
+
+Because both sets count by the same `[Top N]` parameter and order by the chosen measure, changing the parameter re-evaluates membership live — the standouts re-rank. If the order-expression is a parameter-driven measure (e.g. a period-switched calc), top/bottom follows the selected value rather than being fixed all-time.
+
+**Setting up a set action for click-to-highlight:**
+
+1. Build a view with the dimension and a measure
+2. Create a set on that dimension (General tab, no members selected initially — starts with all OUT)
+3. Drag the set to **Color** on the Marks card
+4. On the dashboard, go to **Dashboard → Actions → Add Action → Change Set Values**
+5. Set source: the sheet; target set: your set; on clear: **Remove all values from set** (resets to all OUT)
+
+**Using a set in a calculation:**
+
+```
+// Highlight IN members with a different label
+IF [High-Value Customers] THEN "High Value" ELSE "Other" END
+
+// Calculate aggregate for IN members only
+IF [High-Value Customers] THEN [Sales] END
+// Wrap in SUM() on the shelf: SUM(IF [High-Value Customers] THEN [Sales] END)
+```
+
+Sets return TRUE (IN) or FALSE (OUT) in a boolean context, which makes them fast and clean in IF statements.

+# Translating SQL to Tableau Calculations
+
+When refactoring a custom SQL datasource to native tables (see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/datasources`), SQL-computed columns become Tableau calculated fields. This is the translation reference.
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, calculate
+- In-scope reason: Maps SQL window functions, aggregations, and scalar expressions to Tableau calculated fields so Claude can refactor custom SQL datasources into native Tableau analytics.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: sql-to-tableau, lod-expressions, window-functions, scalar-expressions, ntile-approximation, fixed-lod, table-calcs, rank-ceiling-quintile, percentile-cutoffs, nested-lod, date-arithmetic, coalesce-vs-zn
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "SQL to Tableau translation", "GROUP BY to FIXED LOD", "NTILE equal-count buckets", "SQL window function Tableau equivalent", "RANK over ORDER BY", "COALESCE null handling", "date interval arithmetic DATEADD", "LAG function LOOKUP table calc", "SUM OVER partition WINDOW_SUM"
+
+## Aggregations → FIXED LOD expressions
+
+SQL aggregations with `GROUP BY` translate to Tableau FIXED LODs. The `GROUP BY` dimension becomes the FIXED dimension:
+
+| SQL | Tableau |
+|---|---|
+| `SUM(sales) ... GROUP BY customer` | `{FIXED [Customer]: SUM([Sales])}` |
+| `COUNT(DISTINCT order_id) ... GROUP BY customer` | `{FIXED [Customer]: COUNTD([Order ID])}` |
+| `AVG(discount) ... GROUP BY customer` | `{FIXED [Customer]: AVG([Discount])}` |
+| `MAX(order_date) ... GROUP BY customer` | `{FIXED [Customer]: MAX([Order Date])}` |
+| `MIN(amount) ... GROUP BY region, category` | `{FIXED [Region], [Category]: MIN([Amount])}` |
+
+---
+
+## Scalar expressions
+
+| SQL | Tableau |
+|---|---|
+| `CURRENT_DATE - date_col` | `DATEDIFF('day', [Date Col], TODAY())` |
+| `col::INTEGER` (cast) | `INT([Col])` |
+| `col1 \|\| col2` (string concat) | `STR([Col1]) + STR([Col2])` |
+| `CASE WHEN x >= 4 THEN 'A' WHEN x <= 2 THEN 'B' ELSE 'C' END` | `IF [X] >= 4 THEN "A" ELSEIF [X] <= 2 THEN "B" ELSE "C" END` |
+| `COALESCE(a, b, 0)` | `IFNULL([A], IFNULL([B], 0))` or `ZN([A])` (for null→0) |
+| `EXTRACT(YEAR FROM date_col)` | `YEAR([Date Col])` |
+| `date_col + INTERVAL '30 days'` | `DATEADD('day', 30, [Date Col])` |
+
+---
+
+## String functions
+
+SQL string functions map to Tableau scalar string functions. Two differences bite most often: **Tableau has no `CONCAT` — use `+`** (and every non-string operand must be wrapped in `STR()`), and **all position/length arguments are 1-based** (`MID`, `FIND`, `LEFT` count from 1, not 0).
+
+| SQL | Tableau | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `col1 \|\| col2` / `CONCAT(a, b)` | `[A] + [B]` | No `CONCAT` function; `+` only. Wrap non-strings: `[Name] + " (" + STR([Id]) + ")"` |
+| `SUBSTRING(str, start, len)` | `MID([Str], start, len)` | 1-based `start`; `len` optional (`MID([Str], 5)` → to end) |
+| `LEFT(str, n)` / `RIGHT(str, n)` | `LEFT([Str], n)` / `RIGHT([Str], n)` | identical |
+| `CHARINDEX(sub, str)` / `POSITION(sub IN str)` | `FIND([Str], sub)` | **arg order flips** (string first); returns `0` when not found |
+| `LEN(str)` / `LENGTH(str)` | `LEN([Str])` | character count |
+| `UPPER` / `LOWER` | `UPPER([Str])` / `LOWER([Str])` | identical |
+| `TRIM` / `LTRIM` / `RTRIM` | `TRIM([Str])` / `LTRIM([Str])` / `RTRIM([Str])` | trims spaces only |
+| `REPLACE(str, from, to)` | `REPLACE([Str], from, to)` | identical |
+| `CONTAINS` / `LIKE '%x%'` | `CONTAINS([Str], "x")` | returns boolean |
+| `str LIKE 'x%'` / `LIKE '%x'` | `STARTSWITH([Str], "x")` / `ENDSWITH([Str], "x")` | anchored match |
+| `REGEXP_SUBSTR` / `REGEXP_EXTRACT` | `REGEXP_EXTRACT([Str], pattern)` | first capture group |
+| `REGEXP_REPLACE(str, pat, rep)` | `REGEXP_REPLACE([Str], pat, rep)` | identical |
+| `str REGEXP pat` / `RLIKE` | `REGEXP_MATCH([Str], pat)` | returns boolean |
+| `SPLIT_PART(str, delim, n)` | `SPLIT([Str], delim, n)` | 1-based token index |
+| `CAST(x AS VARCHAR)` | `STR([X])` | any type → string |
+| `ISNULL(x, y)` (SQL Server 2-arg) | `IFNULL([X], [Y])` | 2-arg fallback; **not** `ISNULL` (Tableau `ISNULL` is 1-arg boolean) |
+
+**What does NOT work:**
+- `CONCAT([A], [B])` — there is no `CONCAT` function in Tableau; it errors. Use `[A] + [B]`.
+- `"Order " + [Order Id]` where `[Order Id]` is numeric — `+` on mixed types errors. Wrap: `"Order " + STR([Order Id])`.
+- Assuming `FIND` is 0-based or takes `(substring, string)` order — it is 1-based and takes `([Str], substring)`, the reverse of `CHARINDEX`.
+- Treating Tableau `ISNULL([X])` as the SQL Server 2-arg `ISNULL(x, y)` — Tableau's is a 1-arg boolean test; use `IFNULL`/`ZN` for a fallback value.
+
+---
+
+## Window functions
+
+SQL window functions have limited direct equivalents in Tableau. Key translations:
+
+| SQL | Tableau | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `NTILE(5) OVER (ORDER BY x DESC)` | Range-mapping formula (see below), or LOD `PERCENTILE` cutoffs (see `calc-fields.md`) | No direct NTILE equivalent |
+| `ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY x)` | `INDEX()` | Table calc, requires Compute Using config |
+| `RANK() OVER (ORDER BY x)` | `RANK(SUM([X]))` | Table calc |
+| `SUM(x) OVER ()` | `WINDOW_SUM(SUM([X]))` | Table calc |
+| `LAG(x, 1) OVER (ORDER BY date)` | `LOOKUP(SUM([X]), -1)` | Table calc |
+
+**NTILE approximation using range mapping:**
+```
+// NTILE(5) OVER (ORDER BY x DESC) — quintile 5 = highest
+INT(1 + 4 * ([X] - {FIXED: MIN([X])})
+    / NULLIF(FLOAT({FIXED: MAX([X])} - {FIXED: MIN([X])}), 0))
+```
+This maps values to 1-5 using min/max range. For inverse scoring (5 = lowest value): `INT(5 - 4 * (val - min) / range)`. `NULLIF(..., 0)` guards against divide-by-zero.
+
+**Important:** NTILE range-mapping is an approximation, not exact. SQL NTILE assigns equal-count buckets; the range-mapping formula assigns equal-width buckets. For exact quintiles, use `RANK()` with `CEILING(RANK / (COUNT / 5))`, or — for distribution-based exact quantile cutoffs — use the LOD `PERCENTILE` pattern documented in `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/calc-fields`.
+
+---
+
+## Nested LOD expressions
+
+Tableau evaluates LODs inside-out. A FIXED LOD can reference another FIXED LOD:
+
+```
+// "Days since last order per customer" — references a per-customer MAX
+DATEDIFF('day', {FIXED [Customer]: MAX([Order Date])}, TODAY())
+```
+
+A table-scoped FIXED (no dimension) computes a global aggregate:
+```
+// Global min/max for range mapping
+{FIXED: MIN([Per Customer Sales])}
+{FIXED: MAX([Per Customer Sales])}
+```
+
+---
+
+## XML for calculated fields
+
+```xml
+<column caption='Days Since Last Order' datatype='integer'
+        name='[Calculation_20260414_001]' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau'
+    formula='DATEDIFF(&apos;day&apos;, {FIXED [Customer]: MAX([Order Date])}, TODAY())' />
+</column>
+```
+
+**XML escaping rules in formulas:**
+- `'` → `&apos;` (inside string literals like `'day'`)
+- `"` → `&quot;` (inside string literals)
+- `>=` → `&gt;=`
+- `<=` → `&lt;=`
+- `>` → `&gt;`
+- `<` → `&lt;`
+- `&` → `&amp;`
+
+For the full set of round-trip normalizations Tableau applies to formula text on save, see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/round-trip-normalization`.
+
+---
+
+## When to Use
+
+Read this module when you are:
+- **Refactoring a custom SQL datasource into native tables.** Each SQL-computed column becomes a Tableau calculated field; this reference maps the common SQL idioms.
+- **Porting a SQL-driven analytical query into Tableau-native form** (e.g. windowed rankings, COALESCE chains, date arithmetic, multi-table aggregates) and need the equivalent calc-field syntax.
+- **Building a calc field whose semantics are most clearly expressed in SQL** and you want to translate rather than re-derive.
+
+For pure Tableau calc-field authoring (column structure, parameters, table calc internals), see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/calc-fields`. For the datasource-refactor workflow itself (custom SQL → native tables with `object-graph` + `relationships`), see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/datasources`.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Default to FIXED LOD over table calc when the SQL had a `GROUP BY`.** FIXED matches `GROUP BY` semantics exactly: result depends only on the dimensions in the FIXED clause, regardless of viz layout. Table calcs depend on the layout (rows/cols/partitioning), so they're more fragile across worksheets.
+- **For SQL `NTILE(k)` exact-bucket-count semantics, prefer RANK + CEILING over range-mapping.** Range-mapping creates equal-width buckets, not equal-count. Quintile/decile RFM logic almost always wants the LOD `PERCENTILE` cutoff form; see `calc-fields.md` for the pattern.
+- **Use `ZN()` instead of `COALESCE(x, 0)`** when the only fallback is zero — it's the idiomatic Tableau form and the optimizer recognizes it.
+- **For date arithmetic, use `DATEDIFF` and `DATEADD`** rather than the `+ INTERVAL` SQL syntax. They're explicit about the unit (`'day'`, `'month'`, etc.) and handle DST/leap-year edge cases consistently.
+- **Verify aggregate-inside-LOD legality against the Tableau version** before assuming a translation will compile. The LOD-legal aggregate set has expanded over the release history (e.g. `PERCENTILE` since 2020.2); see `calc-fields.md`.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Translating `NTILE(k)` literally with range-mapping and assuming exact quintile counts.** Range-mapping yields equal-width, not equal-count. Use `LOD PERCENTILE` cutoffs (in `calc-fields.md`) or `RANK / CEILING` for true equal-count buckets.
+2. **Converting `SUM(x) OVER (PARTITION BY y)` to a FIXED LOD without realizing it's `WINDOW_SUM` over a partition.** FIXED with `[Y]` works only when the row-level grain matches; for true window-function semantics across viz partitions, you need a table calc with the right Compute Using.
+3. **Translating `LAG(x, 1) OVER (ORDER BY date)` and forgetting Compute Using.** `LOOKUP(SUM([X]), -1)` is a table calc; without setting Compute Using to the date dimension, it'll lag along whatever the default partition is — usually wrong.
+4. **Using captions in translated formulas.** SQL columns map to Tableau column `name` attributes (internal names like `[M_Q1_SLS]`), not captions. Author the translated formula with the internal name; Tableau will rewrite caption-authored formulas on save anyway (see round-trip normalization).
+5. **Forgetting to escape `'`/`<`/`>`/`&` in the XML form of the formula.** SQL ports often have `'day'` literals or `<=`/`>=` comparisons; both must become entities (`&apos;day&apos;`, `&lt;=`, `&gt;=`) inside `formula="..."`.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+The general workflow for translating a SQL view into Tableau:
+
+1. **Identify the analytical intent of each SQL column.** Aggregate? Window function? Scalar transformation? CASE expression? Each maps to a different Tableau pattern (FIXED LOD, table calc, scalar function, IF expression).
+2. **Pick the right Tableau primitive per column.** Use the tables above. Default rule: `GROUP BY` → FIXED LOD; `OVER (...)` → table calc; scalar → scalar function; `CASE` → `IF/ELSEIF/ELSE`.
+3. **Author the calc field as a `<column>` with `<calculation>` child** in the data datasource. Use a `[Calculation_<digits>]` internal name and put the SQL-derived label in `caption`.
+4. **Mirror the column def + a `<column-instance>` in each worksheet's `<datasource-dependencies>`** that uses the new calc. Aggregate calcs need `derivation="User"` and the `usr:` CI prefix.
+5. **Apply with `apply-workbook`** and verify with `get-workbook-xml` and `list-available-fields`. If the field shows red in the Data pane after apply, check (a) the column `name` is in `[Calculation_<digits>]` form, (b) all referenced fields exist in the worksheet's `datasource-dependencies`, (c) the formula is using internal names rather than captions.
+6. **For round-trip-stability concerns** (formulas getting rewritten by Tableau on save), see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/round-trip-normalization`.

+# Table Calculations — XML Patterns
+
+Complete empirically-confirmed reference for all table calculation types in Tableau Desktop: Quick Table Calcs (applied to native measures) and custom `derivation="User"` calculated fields. All patterns captured via `get-worksheet-xml` after manual authoring (2026-06-25).
+
+**⇒ Wrong-fork check (live Desktop):** CREATING a running total / moving average / rank on a running Tableau Desktop via the External API? Do NOT hand-edit worksheet or workbook XML with these patterns — author it with the `author-calc` verb (author-parameter / author-set first when the calc depends on them), then chart the authored caption. Last resort, only when no authoring verb or template can express the structure: round-trip the REAL document with the workbook document read/apply tools — see `calc-fields.md`. These XML patterns are for file-mode authoring and for READING existing table calcs.
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, validate, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Empirically confirmed Tableau XML patterns that directly govern how agents correctly author worksheet XML.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: table-calculations, quick-table-calc, user-derivation, running-total, percent-difference, percent-of-total, rank, percentile, moving-average, ytd-total, yoy-growth-rate, compute-using, table-calc-filter, nested-table-calcs
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "running total table across", "percent difference previous mark", "YTD growth rate stacked calc", "compute using specific dimension", "RANK competition descending", "moving average 3-period window", "INDEX SIZE FIRST LAST position-only", "table calc filter Top N quantitative range", "ordering-type Field ordering-field", "multiple table-calc children nested", "how do I write a table calculation", "how do I create a table calc", "add a table calculation"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this module when you need to:
+- **Write a quick table calc** — know the exact `<table-calc>` attributes and CI name prefix
+- **Write a custom table calc field** (`derivation="User"`) — know the correct `<column>` and `<column-instance>` shape
+- **Read a workbook with table calcs** — identify what type and Compute Using is configured
+- **Set Compute Using** — know the exact `ordering-type` string for each UI option
+- **Compose table calcs** — understand how YTD Growth Rate stacks two `<table-calc>` elements
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Quick table calcs (applied to native measures)
+- **`<table-calc>` is a child of `<column-instance>` only** — never on the `<column>` def. Quick table calcs do not modify the column definition at all.
+- **`derivation="User"` is NOT used for quick table calcs** — quick table calcs keep the original aggregation derivation (e.g. `Sum`) and add `<table-calc>` children to the CI.
+- **Multiple `<table-calc>` children can be stacked** on one `<column-instance>` for composed operations (e.g. YTD Growth Rate = CumTotal + PctDiff).
+- **The CI name prefix chains the nested operations** — `pcdf:cum:sum:Sales:qk` reads right to left: SUM → cumulative → percent diff.
+
+### Custom table calc fields (`derivation="User"`)
+- **Always include `<table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>` inside `<calculation>`** on the `<column>` def — Tableau adds it on round-trip regardless; include it upfront for idempotent XML.
+- **Always set Compute Using on the `<column-instance>` `<table-calc>`, not the `<column><calculation><table-calc>`.** The `<column>` node holds the field's definition-level default (leave at `Rows`). The `<column-instance>` node is the per-shelf-use override — this is what actually controls the computation.
+- **Never omit `<table-calc>` from a `derivation="User"` `<column-instance>`.** If omitted, Tableau fills it in from the field's definition default — which may be `Field` ordering pointing to a specific dimension. Always write `<table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>` explicitly unless you intend a specific ordering.
+- **`datatype` rules by formula:** `integer` for `RANK`, `SIZE`, `FIRST`, `LAST`, `INDEX`; `real` for everything else. `RANK` silently overrides `real` → `integer` on round-trip — declare `integer` upfront.
+- **Position-only functions omit measure deps:** `SIZE()`, `FIRST()`, `LAST()`, `INDEX()` reference no measure — omit the measure `<column>` from `<datasource-dependencies>` for those calcs. Tableau drops it automatically.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Putting `<table-calc>` on `<column>` instead of `<column-instance>`** for quick table calcs — it belongs only on the CI.
+2. **Using `derivation="User"` for a quick table calc** — use the underlying aggregation derivation (e.g. `Sum`) and add `<table-calc>` children.
+3. **Wrong `ordering-type` string** — XML values don't match UI labels (e.g. "Table (across)" = `Rows`, not `Across`). Use the table below.
+4. **Omitting `ordering-field` when `ordering-type="Field"`** — specific dimension requires both attributes.
+5. **Omitting `<table-calc>` from a `derivation="User"` CI** — Tableau fills in the field's definition default, which may not be `Rows`.
+6. **Declaring `datatype="real"` for `RANK()`** — Tableau corrects to `integer`. Declare `integer` upfront.
+7. **Including a measure column in deps for position-only calcs** — Tableau drops it, causing a round-trip diff.

+
+## Implementation
+
+### Quick table calc types
+
+| UI name | `type` value | CI prefix | Required extra attributes |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Running Total | `CumTotal` | `cum:` | `aggregation` |
+| Difference | `Difference` | `diff:` | `diff-options`, `<address>` |
+| Percent Difference | `PctDiff` | `pcdf:` | `diff-options`, `<address>` |
+| Percent of Total | `PctTotal` | `pcto:` | — |
+| Rank | `Rank` | `rank:` | `rank-options` |
+| Percentile | `PctRank` | `pcrk:` | `rank-options` |
+| Moving Average | `WindowTotal` | `win:` | `aggregation`, `from`, `to`, `window-options` |
+
+### Composed / date-aware quick table calcs
+
+| UI name | Composition | CI prefix pattern |
+|---|---|---|
+| YTD Total | `CumTotal` + `level-break` | `cum:` |
+| YTD Growth Rate | `CumTotal` stacked with `PctDiff` (two `<table-calc>` children) | `pcdf:cum:` |
+| Year over Year Growth Rate | `PctDiff` + `level-address` | `pcdf:` |
+| Compound Growth Rate | `PctDiff` + `diff-options="Relative,Compounded"` | `pcdf:` |
+
+### Custom `derivation="User"` calc field types
+
+All formula types produce an identical `<table-calc>` shape — the only differences are `datatype` and whether a measure dep is needed:
+
+| Formula type | `datatype` | Measure dep needed | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `RUNNING_SUM(SUM([Sales]))` | `real` | yes | |
+| `WINDOW_AVG(SUM([Sales]))` | `real` | yes | |
+| `TOTAL(SUM([Sales]))` | `real` | yes | |
+| `RANK(SUM([Sales]))` | `integer` | yes | Tableau overrides `real` → `integer` |
+| `INDEX()` | `integer` | no | Position-only |
+| `SIZE()` | `integer` | no | Position-only |
+| `FIRST()` | `integer` | no | Position-only |
+| `LAST()` | `integer` | no | Position-only |
+| `RUNNING_SUM(INDEX())` | `integer` | no | Outer inherits inner's integer type; position-only dep rule applies |
+
+### `ordering-type` values (Compute Using)
+
+All 10 values confirmed valid for both quick table calcs and `derivation="User"` fields:
+
+| UI label | `ordering-type` value |
+|---|---|
+| Table (across) | `Rows` |
+| Table (down) | `Columns` |
+| Table (across then down) | `Table` |
+| Table (down then across) | `TableCol` |
+| Pane (across) | `RowInPane` |
+| Pane (down) | `ColumnInPane` |
+| Pane (across then down) | `Pane` |
+| Pane (down then across) | `PaneCol` |
+| Cell | `CellInPane` |
+| Specific Dimension | `Field` — also requires `ordering-field="[datasource].[fieldname]"` |
+
+### `<table-calc>` attribute reference
+
+| Attribute | Used by | Values / notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `type` | quick table calcs only | See type table above |
+| `ordering-type` | all | See ordering-type table above |
+| `ordering-field` | `ordering-type="Field"` | Fully-qualified field reference: `[datasource].[fieldname]` |
+| `aggregation` | `CumTotal`, `WindowTotal` | `Sum`, `Avg`, etc. |
+| `diff-options` | `Difference`, `PctDiff` | `Relative` / `Relative,Compounded` |
+| `rank-options` | `Rank`, `PctRank` | `Competition,Descending` / `Competition,Ascending` |
+| `from` / `to` | `WindowTotal` | Integer offsets; e.g. `from="-2" to="0"` for 3-period window |
+| `window-options` | `WindowTotal` | `IncludeCurrent` |
+| `level-break` | `CumTotal` (YTD) | Fully-qualified CI ref — field at which accumulation resets |
+| `level-address` | `PctDiff` (YoY) | Fully-qualified CI ref — level at which the address offset is applied |
+| `<address><value>` | `Difference`, `PctDiff` | Integer offset: `-1` = previous mark, `-2` = two back |
+
+### Two-node model for `derivation="User"` fields
+
+Custom table calc fields have `<table-calc>` in two places with independent roles:
+
+```
+<column><calculation><table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>   ← definition default (leave alone)
+<column-instance><table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>       ← per-shelf Compute Using (set this)
+```
+
+- The `<column>` node stores the default set in "Edit Table Calculation" on the field definition. Tableau writes `Rows` by default; only changes if the user explicitly saves a different default.
+- The `<column-instance>` node is the active Compute Using for this specific shelf placement. This is what the agent should set.
+- If CI `<table-calc>` is omitted, Tableau fills it from the `<column>` default — which may be `Field` ordering pointing to a specific dimension. Never omit it.
+
+### Confirmed XML examples
+
+#### Quick table calc — Running Total (Table across)
+```xml
+<column-instance column="[Sales]" derivation="Sum" name="[cum:sum:Sales:qk]" pivot="key" type="quantitative">
+  <table-calc aggregation="Sum" ordering-type="Rows" type="CumTotal"/>
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+#### Quick table calc — Difference (Table across)
+```xml
+<column-instance column="[Sales]" derivation="Sum" name="[diff:sum:Sales:qk]" pivot="key" type="quantitative">
+  <table-calc diff-options="Relative" ordering-type="Rows" type="Difference">
+    <address>
+      <value>-1</value>
+    </address>
+  </table-calc>
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+#### Quick table calc — Percent of Total
+```xml
+<column-instance column="[Sales]" derivation="Sum" name="[pcto:sum:Sales:qk]" pivot="key" type="quantitative">
+  <table-calc ordering-type="Rows" type="PctTotal"/>
+</column-instance>
+```
+The `pcto:` prefix must match the BASE measure's aggregation: `pcto:sum:` for a SUM base, `pcto:ctd:` for a CountDistinct base, `pcto:cnt:` for a Count base. Copying the `sum:` form for a COUNTD measure produces wrong totals (the percent is taken against the wrong denominator). See `expertise://tableau/strategy/analytics/calc-fields-strategy`.
+
+#### Quick table calc — Rank (Competition Descending)
+```xml
+<column-instance column="[Sales]" derivation="Sum" name="[rank:sum:Sales:qk]" pivot="key" type="quantitative">
+  <table-calc ordering-type="Rows" rank-options="Competition,Descending" type="Rank"/>
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+#### Quick table calc — Moving Average (3-period)
+```xml
+<column-instance column="[Sales]" derivation="Sum" name="[win:sum:Sales:qk]" pivot="key" type="quantitative">
+  <table-calc aggregation="Avg" from="-2" ordering-type="Rows" to="0" type="WindowTotal" window-options="IncludeCurrent"/>
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+#### Quick table calc — YTD Total
+```xml
+<column-instance column="[Sales]" derivation="Sum" name="[cum:sum:Sales:qk]" pivot="key" type="quantitative">
+  <table-calc aggregation="Sum" level-break="[Sample - Superstore].[qr:Order Date:ok]"
+              ordering-field="[Sample - Superstore].[Order Date]" ordering-type="Field" type="CumTotal"/>
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+#### Quick table calc — Year over Year Growth Rate
+```xml
+<column-instance column="[Sales]" derivation="Sum" name="[pcdf:sum:Sales:qk]" pivot="key" type="quantitative">
+  <table-calc diff-options="Relative" level-address="[Sample - Superstore].[yr:Order Date:ok]"
+              ordering-field="[Sample - Superstore].[Order Date]" ordering-type="Field" type="PctDiff">
+    <address>
+      <value>-1</value>
+    </address>
+  </table-calc>
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+#### Quick table calc — YTD Growth Rate (two stacked `<table-calc>` children)
+```xml
+<column-instance column="[Sales]" derivation="Sum" name="[pcdf:cum:sum:Sales:qk]" pivot="key" type="quantitative">
+  <table-calc aggregation="Sum" level-break="[Sample - Superstore].[qr:Order Date:ok]"
+              ordering-field="[Sample - Superstore].[Order Date]" ordering-type="Field" type="CumTotal"/>
+  <table-calc diff-options="Relative" level-address="[Sample - Superstore].[yr:Order Date:ok]"
+              ordering-field="[Sample - Superstore].[Order Date]" ordering-type="Field" type="PctDiff">
+    <address>
+      <value>-1</value>
+    </address>
+  </table-calc>
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+#### Custom calc — RUNNING_SUM (measure-referencing)
+```xml
+<column caption="Running Sum" datatype="real" name="[Calculation_RunSum]" role="measure" type="quantitative">
+  <calculation class="tableau" formula="RUNNING_SUM(SUM([Sales]))">
+    <table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>
+  </calculation>
+</column>
+<column-instance column="[Calculation_RunSum]" derivation="User" name="[usr:Calculation_RunSum:qk]" pivot="key" type="quantitative">
+  <table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+#### Custom calc — INDEX() (position-only — no measure dep)
+```xml
+<column caption="Index" datatype="integer" name="[Calculation_INDEX]" role="measure" type="quantitative">
+  <calculation class="tableau" formula="INDEX()">
+    <table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>
+  </calculation>
+</column>
+<column-instance column="[Calculation_INDEX]" derivation="User" name="[usr:Calculation_INDEX:qk]" pivot="key" type="quantitative">
+  <table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+### Nested calc fields — multiple `<table-calc>` children with `field` attribute
+
+When a `User` calc field's formula references another `User` calc field (e.g. `RANK([Calculation_RunningSum])`), the outer CI gets one `<table-calc>` per nested calc level:
+
+```xml
+<column-instance column="[Calculation_Outer]" derivation="User" name="[usr:Calculation_Outer:qk]" pivot="key" type="quantitative">
+  <table-calc ordering-type="ColumnInPane"/>
+  <table-calc field="[Sample - Superstore].[Calculation_Inner]" ordering-type="Columns"/>
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+- First `<table-calc>` (no `field`) = Compute Using for the outer calc
+- Subsequent `<table-calc>` nodes each carry `field="[datasource].[inner-calc-name]"` = Compute Using for each referenced inner calc field
+- The inner calc field does NOT get its own CI on the shelf
+
+**This is distinct from nesting functions within a single formula** (e.g. `RANK(RUNNING_SUM(SUM([Sales])))`). A single formula with multiple table calc functions still produces only one `<table-calc>` on the CI — there is only one Compute Using setting for the whole formula.
+
+### Same field placed twice — full pattern
+
+For shelf notation (`*`/`/`/`+` operators) and the CI disambiguation suffix (`:N`), see `expertise://tableau/tactics/tree/column-instance-prefixes`.
+
+Each placement gets its own independent `<column-instance>`, suffix, and `<pane>` entry:
+
+```xml
+<column-instance column="[Calculation_6340831328333826]" derivation="User"
+                 name="[usr:Calculation_6340831328333826:qk]" pivot="key" type="quantitative">
+  <table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>
+</column-instance>
+<column-instance column="[Calculation_6340831328333826]" derivation="User"
+                 name="[usr:Calculation_6340831328333826:qk:3]" pivot="key" type="quantitative">
+  <table-calc ordering-type="CellInPane"/>
+</column-instance>
+
+<rows>([Sample - Superstore].[none:Category:nk] * ([Sample - Superstore].[usr:Calculation_6340831328333826:qk] + [Sample - Superstore].[usr:Calculation_6340831328333826:qk:3]))</rows>
+
+<!-- Each instance gets its own pane — see pane-structure.md -->
+<pane id="2" y-axis-name="[Sample - Superstore].[usr:Calculation_6340831328333826:qk]">...</pane>
+<pane id="3" y-axis-name="[Sample - Superstore].[usr:Calculation_6340831328333826:qk:3]">...</pane>
+```

+# Tableau Date Handling in Workbook XML
+
+Confirmed patterns for date fields, date truncation, fiscal year offsets, custom date calculations, and DATEPARSE in Tableau workbook XML. All patterns validated via `get-workbook-xml` observation.
+
+**Core principle: prefer native date derivations over calculated fields.** Tableau's column-instance derivation system (`yr:`, `wk:`, `tmn:`, etc.) covers the vast majority of date granularity needs — year, quarter, month, week, day, hour — with a single CI and no calculated field. Native derivations produce correct labels automatically, participate in Tableau's date hierarchy, and keep the datasource clean. Only reach for a `DATEPART`/`DATEADD` calculated field when the derivation system genuinely can't express what you need (e.g. day-of-year integers for a cross-year overlay axis).
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, calculate, validate
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude prefer native date derivations over calculated fields and avoid date-handling pitfalls when authoring Tableau date fields.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: dates, date-derivations, datetrunc, dateparse, fiscal-year
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "date on columns gaps disappear", "discrete date missing periods", "continuous date axis spacing", "fiscal year offset datasource", "DATEPARSE live SQL returns null", "YYYYMMDD integer to date cast", "MONTH vs DATETRUNC month difference", "day of year overlay chart", "TruncatedToMonth keeps year", "derivation prefix wrong after add-field", "dates missing on my axis", "why are dates missing", "date axis has gaps"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this module when you need to:
+- **Place a date field** on a shelf with a specific granularity (Year, Quarter, Month, Day, etc.)
+- **Show dates as continuous** (axis) vs. **discrete** (row/column headers)
+- **Apply fiscal year offsets** to a date dimension
+- **Parse a string column as a date** using DATEPARSE
+- **Debug date filtering or truncation** that's producing unexpected labels or empty views
+- **Build relative date calculations** (days since, date diff, rolling windows)
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Default to native derivations, not calculated fields**: before writing a `DATEPART`/`DATETRUNC` calc, check whether a derivation CI (`wk:`, `mn:`, `tyr:`, etc.) already expresses what you need. Native derivations produce correct labels, require no column def in the datasource, and keep the workbook simpler.
+- **Default to continuous (`qk`) when a date is on Columns**: discrete headers compress missing periods — a week with no data simply disappears from the axis, making gaps invisible. Continuous axes preserve true spacing so gaps show up as breaks in the line. Switch to discrete only when you explicitly want uniform column headers (e.g. a crosstab or small-multiple trellis).
+- **Always use `TruncatedTo*` derivations for continuous date axes**, not `None` (exact date) — exact date creates a mark per row, which usually means thousands of marks and an unreadable viz.
+- **For DATEPARSE, verify source type first**: DATEPARSE does not work on live SQL connections — it silently returns null. Check connection type before authoring.
+- **Fiscal year start belongs on the datasource node, not on individual fields**.
+- **Distinguish a date *part* from a *truncation* deliberately**: `MONTH()` / discrete `Month` collapses every year into 12 buckets (seasonality); `DATETRUNC`/`TruncatedToMonth` keeps year and gives a real timeline. Pick based on whether the user wants months combined across years or a continuous timeline.
+- **Never put an integer `YYYYMMDD` key straight on a date axis** — cast it to a real date first (parse the digits or `DATEPARSE`), and keep the integer column for filtering/joining.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Assuming all continuous dates use `TruncatedTo*` derivations**: `Quarter` and `Week` use the same derivation string for both discrete and continuous — only the `:ok`/`:qk` suffix differs. `TruncatedToWeek` and `TruncatedToQuarter` are not valid.
+2. **Using discrete date on Columns**: discrete derivations only render headers for periods that have data — missing weeks vanish. Use the continuous equivalent.
+3. **Writing a calculated field for something a derivation CI already handles**: e.g. `DATEPART('week', ...)` is unnecessary when `[wk:Order Date:ok]` with `derivation="Week"` does the same thing with better labels.
+4. **Using continuous truncation but expecting discrete headers**: `tmn:Order Date:qk` creates a continuous axis, not "January / February / March" headers.
+5. **DATEPARSE on a live SQL connection**: silently returns null. Use `CAST` in custom SQL instead.
+6. **Wrong `date_part` quotes**: `DATEDIFF(day, ...)` fails; must be `DATEDIFF('day', ...)`.
+7. **Guessing the fiscal year CI prefix**: `fyr:` and `fqr:` only work if the datasource has `fiscal-year-start` set.
+8. **Using a `MONTH()` date *part* when you meant a month *truncation*** — the part collapses all years into 12 buckets (see "Cross-year month rollup" below). If the user expects Jan 2024 and Jan 2025 to be separate points, that's `DATETRUNC`/`TruncatedToMonth`, not `MONTH()`.
+9. **Treating an integer `YYYYMMDD` key as a date** — it sorts/filters like a number and renders as integers on an axis, not a date. Cast it (see "Integer date keys" below).
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Discrete vs. Continuous
+
+| Form | CI suffix | `type` attr | Shelf behavior |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Discrete (blue pill) | `:ok` | `ordinal` | Row/column headers per period |
+| Continuous (green pill) | `:qk` | `quantitative` | Continuous axis |
+
+### Common derivation prefixes
+
+| Granularity | Discrete CI | Continuous CI | Derivation string |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Year | `[yr:Date:ok]` | `[tyr:Date:qk]` | `Year` / `TruncatedToYear` |
+| Quarter | `[qr:Date:ok]` | `[qr:Date:qk]` | `Quarter` (same for both) |
+| Month | `[mn:Date:ok]` | `[tmn:Date:qk]` | `Month` / `TruncatedToMonth` |
+| Week | `[wk:Date:ok]` | `[wk:Date:qk]` | `Week` (same for both) |
+| Day | `[dy:Date:ok]` | `[tdy:Date:qk]` | `Day` / `TruncatedToDay` |
+
+**Default: use continuous when a date goes on Columns.** Use continuous (`:qk`, `type="quantitative"`) unless you explicitly need uniform column headers. This applies to derivation CIs and DATEPART calcs alike.
+
+### Workflow for adding a date to a shelf
+
+1. Identify the column's internal name via `list-available-fields`.
+2. If going on Columns, default to continuous unless discrete headers are explicitly needed.
+3. Add a `column-instance` to `datasource-dependencies` with correct `name`, `derivation`, `pivot="key"`, and `type`.
+4. Reference the CI on the shelf: `[datasourceId].[ci-name]`.
+5. Read back the worksheet XML and verify the `derivation` attribute is capitalized (e.g. `"Month"`, not `"mn"`).
+
+### YoY running sales pattern
+
+Day-of-year is not available as a native derivation — use `DATEPART('dayofyear', ...)` as a calculated field with `role="dimension" type="quantitative"` for a continuous integer axis. Pair with `RUNNING_SUM(SUM([Sales]))` on Rows and Year (discrete) on Color.
+
+```xml
+<column name="[Calculation_DayOfYear]" caption="Day of Year"
+        role="dimension" type="quantitative" datatype="integer">
+  <calculation class="tableau" formula="DATEPART('dayofyear', [Order Date])" />
+</column>
+
+<column name="[Calculation_RunningTotalSales]" caption="Running Total Sales"
+        role="measure" type="quantitative" datatype="real">
+  <calculation class="tableau" formula="RUNNING_SUM(SUM([Sales]))" />
+</column>
+
+<column-instance name="[yr:Order Date:ok]" column="[Order Date]"
+                 derivation="Year" pivot="key" type="ordinal" />
+
+<cols>[datasource].[Calculation_DayOfYear]</cols>
+<rows>[datasource].[Calculation_RunningTotalSales]</rows>
+<!-- color: [datasource].[yr:Order Date:ok] -->
+```
+
+### Cross-year month rollup: `MONTH()` part vs month truncation
+
+A dimension built from the **date part** `MONTH([Order Date])` (or the discrete `Month` derivation, `[mn:Order Date:ok]`) produces **12 month-name buckets that aggregate across all years** — January 2024 and January 2025 collapse into one "January". That is correct and intended for seasonality views (compare months irrespective of year), but it is a silent bug when the user expected a continuous timeline.
+
+A **month truncation** — `DATETRUNC('month', [Order Date])` or the continuous `TruncatedToMonth` derivation `[tmn:Order Date:qk]` — **preserves the year**, so the same data renders as 24 month-year points (Jan 2024, Jan 2025, …).
+
+Decision rule:
+- Want one point per calendar month name, all years combined (seasonality)? → date **part** (`Month` / `[mn:…:ok]`).
+- Want a real timeline, each month-year distinct? → **truncation** (`TruncatedToMonth` / `[tmn:…:qk]`).
+
+If you must overlay multiple years on a single shared month axis (year on color, months aligned), synthesize a fixed-year date so all years map to the same 12 positions, e.g. `DATE("2024-" + RIGHT("0" + STR(MONTH([Order Date])), 2) + "-01")` on Columns with a `%B` month-name format, and put `[yr:Order Date:ok]` on Color. (This is the month-level analogue of the day-of-year overlay above.)
+
+### Integer date keys (`YYYYMMDD`)
+
+Warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, Postgres, SQL Server) commonly store dates as integers like `20240115`. Tableau treats that column as a **number**: it sorts/filters numerically and, on a continuous axis, renders integer values instead of a date timeline.
+
+Keep the integer column as-is in the datasource (it is useful for fast filtering/joining) and derive a real date where you need a date axis, by parsing the digits into an ISO date:
+
+```
+// DATEPARSE (fails silently on live SQL connections — see Best Practices):
+DATEPARSE("yyyyMMdd", STR([Order Date Key]))
+
+// Portable form that works regardless of connection type:
+DATE(LEFT(STR([Order Date Key]), 4) + "-" + MID(STR([Order Date Key]), 5, 2) + "-" + RIGHT(STR([Order Date Key]), 2))
+```
+
+`MID()` is 1-indexed (position 5 starts the month). Build the derived date as a calculated field on the datasource, then add date-granularity derivations (`tmn:`, `yr:`, …) on top of *that* field, not the integer key.
+
+### Tool-generated derivation bug
+
+The `add-field` tool may write the CI prefix as the `derivation` attribute (e.g. `derivation="mn"`) instead of the required capitalized string (`derivation="Month"`). Tableau silently falls back to the raw date field. Always read back and verify after adding a date field.

+# Prior-Year Calcs That Respond to the Date Filter — the Order-of-Operations Trap
+
+A current-year-vs-prior-year measure only "changes based on the date filter" if the prior-period value is computed at a pipeline step the filter can actually reach, and only stays correct if it references **real date derivations** instead of an invented field. The classic failures: a `FIXED` prior-period value ignores the date filter (runs before it), a `LOOKUP` prior-period value returns null once the comparison year is filtered out of the view, and an agent references a date field or derivation that does not exist in the datasource. This entry is the calc-correctness half of a YoY build; for the year-overlay chart shape, see the year-over-year comparison companion.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: calculate, create, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Shows how to build a current-vs-prior-period measure that recomputes with the date filter (context filter for FIXED, table-calc caveats, DATEADD prior period) using valid date derivations, and how to avoid the hallucinated-date-field baseline failure.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: prior-period, prior-year, current-vs-prior, dateadd, date-filter, order-of-operations, context-filter, lookup, relative-date, valid-date-derivations, anchor-date
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "current year vs prior year calculation that changes based on the date filter", "make my YoY recompute when I change the date filter", "prior year sales with DATEADD", "prior period returns null when I filter to one year", "context filter for the prior-year comparison", "my FIXED prior year ignores the date filter", "this year vs last year measure that follows the filter", "current period vs prior period calc", "prior-year value is blank after filtering dates", "year over year calc uses a field that does not exist"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this when the requirement is a **calculated** current-vs-prior comparison whose result must move with the user's date filter — for example "current year vs prior year that updates when I change the date range," "this year vs last year as a measure," or "prior period % change that respects the filter." It is the how-do-I-compute-it partner to the how-do-I-chart-it overlay:
+
+- Compute the comparison value → this entry (order of operations, DATEADD, valid derivations).
+- Render both years as separate series on one axis → the year-over-year comparison companion below.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Base every period on a real date derivation, never an invented field.** Use native derivations of the actual date column (`[yr:Order Date:ok]` for year, `[tmn:Order Date:qk]` for a month timeline) or `DATEADD`/`DATETRUNC`/`YEAR()` on the real field. Do NOT reference a `[Year]`, `[Prior Year Sales]`, or `[none:Order Date:qk]`-style field that isn't in the schema — verify the date field exists first. A hallucinated field is the baseline YoY failure: the calc errors or the viz renders blank.
+2. **Decide the prior-period mechanic before writing it.** Two correct shapes:
+   - **`LOOKUP` (table calc)** — `SUM([Sales]) - LOOKUP(SUM([Sales]), -1)` addressed along Year. Follows the marks in the view.
+   - **`DATEADD`/conditional (aggregate calc)** — split current vs prior with the real date, e.g. `SUM(IF DATETRUNC('year',[Order Date]) = DATETRUNC('year',[Anchor Date]) THEN [Sales] END)` for current and the `DATEADD('year',-1,…)` window for prior.
+3. **Make it respond to the filter at the right step (the trap).** Tableau's order of operations decides whether a date filter reaches your comparison value:
+   - A **relative/range date filter is a dimension filter** (it runs *after* `FIXED` LODs). A prior-period value built with a `FIXED` LOD therefore **ignores** that filter. Fix: right-click the date filter → **Add to Context** so it runs before the LOD.
+   - A **`LOOKUP` table calc runs late but only sees marks left in the view.** If the filter removes the prior year's marks, `LOOKUP(-1)` has nothing to look back to and returns null. Fix: keep the comparison period in the view (e.g. a relative filter of the **last 2 years**) and hide/limit display separately, rather than filtering the prior year out.
+   - Full evaluation order and the context-filter fix: see the filter-strategy companion below.
+4. **Anchor "current" to the data, not to `TODAY()`.** In a static extract, `TODAY()` is years past the data, so "this year" returns nothing. Anchor to `{MAX([Order Date])}` (or the user's stated reporting date).
+5. **Prefer a relative date filter for "always current."** "Last 2 years" keeps both the current and prior period available so the comparison never loses its baseline as data advances.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **`FIXED` prior-period value that won't respond to the date filter.** Dimension filters run after `FIXED`; add the date filter to Context (or rebuild as a table calc) so the comparison recomputes.
+2. **`LOOKUP(SUM(...), -1)` returns null after filtering to one year.** The prior year's marks were filtered out of the view. Keep both years in view; filter display, not the comparison window.
+3. **Referencing a date field or derivation that doesn't exist.** The single biggest YoY failure — build the year/prior-year from the real date column's derivations, not a guessed field name.
+4. **Using a `MONTH()` date *part* when a month *truncation* was meant.** The part collapses every year into 12 buckets, so "this year vs last year by month" loses the year split. Use `TruncatedToMonth` / `[tmn:…:qk]` when years must stay distinct (see the date-handling companion).
+5. **Hardcoding a year literal (`YEAR([Order Date]) = 2024`).** It won't advance with the data. Anchor to `{MAX([Order Date])}` and derive current/prior from it.
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. Confirm the real date field and measure exist (list the available fields); pick native derivations over new calcs where possible.
+2. Choose the mechanic: `LOOKUP` table calc for a view-relative comparison, or a `DATEADD`/conditional aggregate calc for a filter-scoped value.
+3. If using a `FIXED`-based comparison and it must follow the date filter, **Add the date filter to Context**.
+4. If using `LOOKUP`, ensure the comparison period stays in the view — use a relative filter (e.g. last 2 years) rather than filtering the prior year away.
+5. Anchor "current" with `{MAX([Order Date])}` (or the stated reporting date), not `TODAY()`.
+6. Verify by changing the date filter: the current and prior values should both move, and neither should go blank; read back the XML to confirm only valid date derivations are referenced.

+# Hidden Workbook Filters Are Not Row-Level Security
+
+Guidance for safely declining a common unsafe request: "hide restricted rows with a hidden workbook filter so certain users can't see them." A hidden or workbook-level filter is a presentation choice, not an access control, and must not be used to enforce who can see which data.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: safely decline, govern
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude refuse an unsafe authoring shortcut and redirect to governed Tableau security mechanisms, framed as a workbook authoring decision.
+- Out-of-scope risk: broad security architecture (keep the answer to the authoring decision, not enterprise security design)
+- Tags: security, row-level-security, rls, filters, governance, safe-refusal, when-to-say-no
+- Expected agent behavior: Decline to implement a hidden filter as access control; explain it is not a security mechanism; redirect to governed row-level security; do not apply a workbook change that simulates access control.
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "hide restricted rows with a filter", "row level access control via filter", "filter so users cannot see certain rows", "use hidden filter for security", "hide data from users with workbook filter", "restrict rows using dashboard filter", "hide rows so they can't see", "hidden filter for security", "restrict by filter", "executives shouldn't see", "filter out sensitive rows"
+- Suggested golden task: User asks to hide restricted rows from some viewers using a hidden workbook filter.
+- Safe refusal condition: when a filter (hidden or otherwise) is requested as the mechanism that enforces who may see which rows.
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when a user asks to use a **filter** — especially a *hidden* one — to keep some viewers from seeing certain rows (for example, "hide restricted customers so executives can't see them," "filter out the rows that group X shouldn't see").
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Any "make a filter act as access control" request
+- Dashboards intended for audiences with different data-access rights
+- Requests to "hide" sensitive rows at the workbook layer
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Name the boundary plainly.** A workbook or hidden filter only changes what a view *displays by default*. It does not remove the data from the workbook/extract and does not stop a viewer from reaching it (duplicating or editing the sheet, Web Edit, Download, "View Data," or a new viz against the same source). So it cannot enforce who may see which rows.
+- **Redirect to governed row-level security (RLS):**
+  - **User filters / entitlements**: row-level security driven by the viewer's identity (e.g. `USERNAME()`, `ISMEMBEROF()`), ideally via an entitlements table joined to the data, applied as a **data source filter** on a **published data source** so the rule travels with the data.
+  - **Permissions on a published data source / workbook** to control who can connect or see content.
+  - **Security at the data layer** (database RLS, secure views, or extract-time filtering tied to identity) when the rule must be enforced regardless of client.
+- **Keep it an authoring decision.** Explain the safe path in workbook/data-source terms; do not turn it into an enterprise security-architecture engagement.
+- **Validate by not implementing the unsafe path.** Do not apply a workbook change that adds a hidden/row-hiding filter presented as access control.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Say no when a filter (hidden or visible) is being used as the mechanism that enforces who may see which rows.
+
+Recommended wording:
+
+> A hidden workbook filter changes what the view shows by default, but it does not secure the data — anyone who can open the workbook can still reach the filtered-out rows. To actually restrict who sees which rows, use governed row-level security (a user-filter / entitlements rule applied to a published data source, or security enforced at the data source), backed by permissions. I can help you set that up instead.
+
+Offer this instead:
+
+- Row-level security via a user filter / entitlements table on a published data source
+- Permissions on the published data source / workbook
+- Row-level security enforced at the database or extract layer
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- Treating a hidden or workbook-level filter as if it enforces access — it only changes the default display.
+- Building a "works for the demo" workbook-only workaround and implying it controls access.
+- Escalating into broad enterprise security architecture instead of giving the governed authoring answer.
+- Assuming "hidden" means "inaccessible" — Web Edit, Download, duplicate-sheet, and View Data all bypass it.
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. Acknowledge the goal: certain viewers should not see certain rows.
+2. State the constraint clearly: a hidden/workbook filter is not a security control; the data is still present and reachable.
+3. Explain why the shortcut is unsafe (duplicate/edit sheet, Web Edit, Download, View Data all expose the rows).
+4. Offer the governed alternative: row-level security via user filter / entitlements on a published data source, plus permissions; or security at the data layer.
+5. Do not apply a workbook change that simulates access control with a hidden filter. Escalate to data/security ownership when the entitlements model needs to be defined.
+

+# PII and Fair Lending Field Exclusions
+
+SE knowledge entry for field expertise that may later be reviewed for promotion into the Tableau authoring expertise layer.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: SE assisting a Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: govern, safely decline
+- In-scope reason: Defines which data fields must be excluded from Tableau dashboards and underlying datasets for PII and fair lending compliance, and how to catch these at the consultation and peer review stages before a dashboard reaches production.
+- Out-of-scope risk: broad security architecture, sales process
+- Tags: governance, PII, fair-lending, compliance, data-source, financial-services, when-to-say-no
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "exclude PII from Tableau dashboard", "fair lending field rules", "cannot include customer names addresses", "FICO score sortable task list", "cherry-pick loan files compliance risk", "Tableau dashboard access controls gap", "remove sensitive fields from dataset", "consultation gate before build peer review"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when a customer requests a dashboard that includes any of the following:
+
+- Customer names, addresses, phone numbers, or email addresses
+- FICO scores, credit scores, or loan amounts
+- Any personally identifiable information (PII) about end customers
+- Any field that would allow users to rank, sort, or prioritize records by a protected or sensitive attribute
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Financial services customers (lending, banking, mortgage, insurance)
+- Any organization where Tableau dashboards do not inherit the access controls of the source operating system
+- All dashboard types — operational, inspection, and management performance
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### The Core Principle
+
+Tableau dashboards do not inherit the security and access controls of the operating system they companion. A user who has access to a Tableau dashboard may not have the same access rights as a user of the underlying loan origination system, CRM, or operational platform. This gap creates real exposure when sensitive fields are included — even if they appear to be controlled at the viz level.
+
+**The only safe position is to exclude sensitive fields from the dataset entirely** — not to filter them out in the viz, not to hide them in the workbook, but to never include them in the extract or data source.
+
+Anything in the underlying data can be exported: through Tableau's built-in export, through downloaded crosstabs, or by a developer querying the data source directly. If the field is in the data, it is potentially exposed.
+
+### Fields to Exclude — PII
+
+Never include the following in a Tableau dataset or dashboard:
+
+- Customer first or last names
+- Property or mailing addresses
+- Phone numbers
+- Email addresses
+- Government-issued ID numbers (SSN, EIN, etc.)
+- Any other field that uniquely identifies or locates a specific individual
+
+### Fields to Exclude — Fair Lending
+
+Never include the following in a Tableau dataset or dashboard where users work queues or task lists:
+
+- FICO or credit scores
+- Loan amounts or application amounts
+- Any field that enables a user to sort or rank tasks by a financially sensitive or protected attribute
+
+**Why this matters:** A sortable table of open loan files that includes FICO scores or loan amounts allows users to cherry-pick — to work only the highest-score or highest-value files first. This constitutes unfair lending practice and creates regulatory exposure for the organization. The field itself creates the risk, regardless of intent.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Say no when a customer requests any PII or fair-lending-sensitive field be included in a dashboard dataset or visualization.
+
+Recommended wording:
+
+> Including that field in this dashboard creates a compliance risk we need to avoid. Tableau dashboards don't inherit the access controls of your operating system — loan origination system, CRM, or servicing platform — so a user with dashboard access could see or export data they wouldn't have access to in the system of record. We recommend excluding this field from the dataset entirely — not just hiding it in the viz — so it cannot be exported or accessed downstream.
+
+For fair lending fields specifically:
+
+> Including loan amounts or FICO scores in a sortable task table would allow users to prioritize files by those values, which is an unfair lending practice. We exclude those fields from the dataset entirely so they cannot be surfaced, sorted, or exported through Tableau.
+
+Offer this instead:
+
+- Substitute anonymized or bucketed identifiers (loan ID, case number, file reference) that allow task tracking without exposing PII
+- Use days-based priority fields (days since last contact, days until closing) for task prioritization instead of financial attribute fields
+- If a business need requires seeing sensitive details, direct the user to the operating system where access controls are properly enforced
+
+### Escalation
+
+If a business stakeholder pushes back and insists the fields are necessary, escalate to a lead analyst, compliance officer, or legal/risk team before including the fields. Do not include sensitive fields pending escalation.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **Hiding a sensitive field in the workbook instead of removing it from the dataset.** A hidden field is still in the underlying data and can be exported. Exclusion must happen at the data source level.
+- **Assuming viz-level security is sufficient.** Row-level security and filtered views do not prevent data export by authorized users. The field must not exist in the dataset.
+- **Treating this as a financial-services-only rule.** Any organization where Tableau access does not mirror operating system access has this exposure. The principle applies broadly.
+- **Waiting for peer review to catch it.** Peer review is a confirmation gate, not the primary catch. The consultation stage — when the BI analyst reviews the request — is where this should be identified and resolved before any work begins.
+- **Adding loan amount or FICO as a non-visible sort field.** Even a sort-only field in the underlying data can be exported. Exclusion is the only safe option.
+
+## Implementation
+
+This is a two-gate governance model:
+
+**Gate 1 — Consultation (before build):**
+
+1. Review the dashboard request for sensitive field inclusions.
+2. If PII or fair-lending fields are requested, advise the business user that those fields cannot be included and explain why.
+3. Agree on approved substitute fields (e.g., anonymized IDs, days-based priority fields) before the dashboard is designed.
+4. Document the field exclusion decision in the request record.
+
+**Gate 2 — Peer Review (before production):**
+
+1. Reviewer checks the original request, the dataset, the dashboard, and the UT test results together.
+2. Confirms that no PII or fair-lending-sensitive fields appear in the dataset, the viz, or the exported data.
+3. Confirms the guiding principle was followed end-to-end.
+4. Dashboard does not go to production until this review is complete.

+# Column Instance Name Prefixes — Empirically Confirmed
+
+Complete authoritative mapping of `derivation` attribute values → CI name prefixes for all known derivation types. Field-tested via XML injection + round-trip inspection (2026-06-25).
+
+**Note:** `enums.md` lists several derivation strings that are wrong or incomplete — use THIS file as the authoritative source for derivation strings and CI prefixes. Specific corrections to `enums.md` are noted in the table below.
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, validate, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Empirically confirmed Tableau XML patterns that directly govern how agents correctly author worksheet XML.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: derivation-prefixes, column-instance-naming, aggregation-switch, date-derivations, measure-aggregations, table-calc-user-derivation, ci-name-format, shelf-notation, disambiguation-suffix, invalid-derivation-rewrites
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "derivation attribute to CI prefix mapping", "Attr invalid rewrites to None", "TruncYear TruncMonth invalid strings", "cntd: wrong prefix use ctd:", "shelf operator star slash plus notation", "same field twice disambiguation suffix", "Year-Trunc not TruncatedToYear", "switch aggregation Sum to Avg XML", "StdevP prefix stp: not stdevp:"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this module when you need to:
+- **Write a column-instance** — look up the correct `derivation` string and CI name prefix
+- **Read a workbook's CI names** — identify what derivation they represent
+- **Switch a measure's aggregation** — know exactly which XML nodes change
+- **Avoid silent rewrites** — several derivation strings look plausible but are invalid and silently rewrite to `None`
+- **Write shelf expressions** — know the `*`/`/`/`+` notation for multiple fields on a shelf
+- **Handle same-field-twice** — understand the `:N` disambiguation suffix
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Derivation is authoritative, not the CI name prefix.** If you get the derivation right but the prefix wrong, Tableau rewrites the name to match. If you get the derivation wrong, Tableau rewrites both to `None` — the prefix alone cannot rescue an invalid derivation.
+- **Use the exact derivation strings in this table.** Several look-alike strings are invalid: `Attr` (not `Attribute`), `TruncMonth` (not `Month-Trunc`), `cntd:` (not `ctd:`). All silently rewrite to `None` with no error.
+- **When switching aggregations, only the column-instance changes.** The column def's `datatype` and `type` reflect the field's native type and do not change when aggregation changes.
+- **Update all references when changing a CI name** — `<rows>`, `<cols>`, and any encoding `column` attributes that reference the old CI name.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **`Attr` instead of `Attribute`** — `Attr` silently rewrites to `None`.
+2. **`TruncYear` / `TruncMonth` / `TruncDay`** — all silently rewrite to `None`. Correct strings are `Year-Trunc`, `Month-Trunc`, `Day-Trunc`.
+3. **`cntd:` prefix for CountD** — Tableau rewrites to `ctd:`. Always use `ctd:`.
+4. **`stdev:` prefix for Stdev** — correct prefix is `std:`.
+5. **`stdevp:` or `stdp:` prefix for StdevP** — correct prefix is `stp:`.
+6. **`varp:` prefix for VarP** — correct prefix is `vrp:`.
+7. **Modifying the column def when switching aggregation** — `datatype` and `type` on the column def do not change. Only the CI changes.

+
+## Implementation
+
+### Complete derivation → CI prefix table
+
+#### Dimension derivations
+
+| Derivation string | CI prefix | `:nk`/`:ok`/`:qk` | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `None` | `none:` | `:nk` (nominal) for string/boolean dimensions; `:ok` or `:qk` for date "Exact Date" | Exact Date supports both discrete (`:ok`) and continuous (`:qk`) |
+| `Attribute` | `attr:` | `:ok` discrete, `:qk` continuous | `Attr` is INVALID — silently rewrites to `None` |
+
+#### Date part derivations (discrete or continuous)
+
+Same derivation string for both `:ok` (discrete) and `:qk` (continuous) — only the suffix and `type` attr differ. All can be set to either discrete or continuous regardless of their default.
+
+| Derivation string | CI prefix | Example discrete | Example continuous | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `Year` | `yr:` | `[yr:Order Date:ok]` | `[yr:Order Date:qk]` | |
+| `Quarter` | `qr:` | `[qr:Order Date:ok]` | `[qr:Order Date:qk]` | |
+| `Month` | `mn:` | `[mn:Order Date:ok]` | `[mn:Order Date:qk]` | |
+| `Week` | `wk:` | `[wk:Order Date:ok]` | `[wk:Order Date:qk]` | |
+| `Weekday` | `wd:` | `[wd:Order Date:ok]` | — | datepart only (no truncation form); discrete only |
+| `Day` | `dy:` | `[dy:Order Date:ok]` | `[dy:Order Date:qk]` | |
+| `Hour` | `hr:` | `[hr:Order Date:ok]` | `[hr:Order Date:qk]` | requires `datetime`; default: discrete |
+| `Minute` | `mi:` | `[mi:Order Date:ok]` | `[mi:Order Date:qk]` | requires `datetime`; default: discrete |
+| `Second` | `sc:` | `[sc:Order Date:ok]` | `[sc:Order Date:qk]` | requires `datetime`; default: discrete |
+| `MY` | `my:` | `[my:Order Date:ok]` | — | "Month / Year" combined display; datepart only; discrete only |
+| `MDY` | `md:` | `[md:Order Date:ok]` | — | "Month / Day / Year" combined display; datepart only; discrete only |
+| `ISO-Year` | `iyr:` | `[iyr:Order Date:ok]` | `[iyr:Order Date:qk]` | ISO 8601 week-numbering year (week containing Thu defines the year) |
+| `ISO-Qtr` | `iqr:` | `[iqr:Order Date:ok]` | `[iqr:Order Date:qk]` | ISO quarter (relative to ISO year); default: discrete |
+| `ISO-Week` | `iwk:` | `[iwk:Order Date:ok]` | `[iwk:Order Date:qk]` | ISO 8601 week number (1–53); default: discrete |
+| `ISO-Weekday` | `iwd:` | `[iwd:Order Date:ok]` | — | ISO weekday (Mon=1 … Sun=7); datepart only; discrete only |
+
+#### Date truncation derivations (truncate to period start — keeps year context)
+
+Truncations round to the start of a period, producing a date/datetime value. Default: continuous. All can be set to either discrete or continuous.
+
+| Derivation string | CI prefix | Example discrete | Example continuous | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `Year-Trunc` | `tyr:` | `[tyr:Order Date:ok]` | `[tyr:Order Date:qk]` | `TruncYear` / `TruncatedToYear` are INVALID |
+| `ISO-Year-Trunc` | `tiyr:` | `[tiyr:Order Date:ok]` | `[tiyr:Order Date:qk]` | ISO 8601 week-numbering year truncation |
+| `Quarter-Trunc` | `tqr:` | `[tqr:Order Date:ok]` | `[tqr:Order Date:qk]` | `TruncQuarter` is INVALID |
+| `ISO-Qtr-Trunc` | `tiqr:` | `[tiqr:Order Date:ok]` | `[tiqr:Order Date:qk]` | ISO quarter truncation |
+| `ISO-Week-Trunc` | `tiwk:` | `[tiwk:Order Date:ok]` | `[tiwk:Order Date:qk]` | ISO week truncation |
+| `Month-Trunc` | `tmn:` | `[tmn:Order Date:ok]` | `[tmn:Order Date:qk]` | `TruncMonth` / `TruncatedToMonth` are INVALID |
+| `Week-Trunc` | `twk:` | `[twk:Order Date:ok]` | `[twk:Order Date:qk]` | |
+| `Day-Trunc` | `tdy:` | `[tdy:Order Date:ok]` | `[tdy:Order Date:qk]` | `TruncDay` / `TruncatedToDay` are INVALID |
+| `Hour-Trunc` | `thr:` | `[thr:Order Date:ok]` | `[thr:Order Date:qk]` | requires `datetime` datatype |
+| `Minute-Trunc` | `tmi:` | `[tmi:Order Date:ok]` | `[tmi:Order Date:qk]` | requires `datetime` datatype |
+| `Second-Trunc` | `tsc:` | `[tsc:Order Date:ok]` | `[tsc:Order Date:qk]` | requires `datetime` datatype |
+
+#### Measure aggregation derivations
+
+| Derivation string | CI prefix | Example | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `Sum` | `sum:` | `[sum:Sales:qk]` | |
+| `Avg` | `avg:` | `[avg:Sales:qk]` | |
+| `Count` | `cnt:` | `[cnt:Sales:qk]` | |
+| `CountD` | `ctd:` | `[ctd:Sales:qk]` | NOT `cntd:` |
+| `Median` | `med:` | `[med:Sales:qk]` | |
+| `Min` | `min:` | `[min:Sales:qk]` | |
+| `Max` | `max:` | `[max:Sales:qk]` | |
+| `Stdev` | `std:` | `[std:Sales:qk]` | NOT `stdev:` |
+| `StdevP` | `stp:` | `[stp:Sales:qk]` | NOT `stdevp:` or `stdp:` |
+| `Var` | `var:` | `[var:Sales:qk]` | |
+| `VarP` | `vrp:` | `[vrp:Sales:qk]` | NOT `varp:` |
+
+#### Table calc derivation
+
+| Derivation string | CI prefix | Example | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `User` | `usr:` | `[usr:Calculation_INDEX:qk]` | Requires a calculated field (not a native datasource field). Tableau auto-injects `<table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>` on both `<column>` and `<column-instance>` |
+
+### Derivation takes precedence over CI name prefix
+
+If derivation and prefix are inconsistent, Tableau resolves by derivation:
+- **Valid derivation + wrong prefix** → Tableau rewrites the name to match the derivation. No functional harm.
+- **Invalid derivation + any prefix** → Tableau rewrites both derivation and name to `None`. Chart renders with no aggregation/truncation applied.
+
+### Aggregation switch — which nodes change
+
+When switching a measure's aggregation (e.g. Sum → Avg):
+
+**Changes:**
+- `column-instance` `derivation` attribute
+- `column-instance` `name` attribute (prefix)
+- All shelf references (`<rows>`, `<cols>`) and encoding `column` attributes pointing to the old CI name
+
+**Does NOT change:**
+- `column` def `datatype`, `role`, `type`
+- `breakdown` value
+- Any style rules
+
+### Shelf expression notation for multiple fields
+
+Shelf elements (`<rows>` / `<cols>`) use structural operators to combine multiple CIs. These have no mathematical meaning:
+
+| Situation | Operator | Example |
+|---|---|---|
+| Multiple different fields on the same shelf | `*` (Rows) / `/` (Cols) | Rows: `([Category] * [sum:Sales:qk])` · Cols: `([yr:Date:ok] / [qr:Date:ok])` |
+| Same field placed twice on a shelf | inner group with `+` | `([Category] * ([sum:Sales:qk] + [sum:Sales:qk:2]))` |
+
+- `*` separates fields on the **Rows** shelf
+- `/` separates fields on the **Cols** shelf
+- `+` groups two instances of the **same field** within one shelf
+
+### CI name disambiguation suffix (`:N`)
+
+When the same base field appears multiple times on the same shelf, Tableau appends `:N` to the CI name to disambiguate: `[cum:sum:Sales:qk:2]`, `[usr:Calc:qk:3]`, etc.
+
+- The suffix counter starts at `:2` for the second instance (`:1` is also observed for column-dominant `ordering-type` values — see `expertise://tableau/tactics/data/table-calcs`).
+- The suffix has no semantic meaning.
+- Tableau automatically updates shelf (`<rows>` / `<cols>`) references to match the suffix it assigns — agents do not need to manage suffixes manually.
+- When submitting XML without a suffix, Tableau assigns the appropriate suffix on round-trip and updates all shelf references to match.
+
+### `datasource-dependencies` CI ordering is normalized on round-trip
+
+Tableau reorders `column-instance` elements alphabetically by CI name. Submission order is not preserved. Cosmetic only — no functional effect.
+
+### Column metadata is corrected on round-trip
+
+If submitted `<column>` attributes (`datatype`, `type`, `semantic-role`) don't match the datasource's knowledge of the field, Tableau silently corrects them. Use `list-available-fields` to get correct metadata rather than guessing.

+# TWB Authoring Form: Version, Manifest & the Construction Playbook
+
+How to generate a `.twb` that actually opens in Tableau: choosing the version/manifest form, wiring the datasource so fields aren't silently stripped, and decoding the cryptic load-error codes.
+
+The single most load-bearing reference for hand-authoring workbook XML.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, validate, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: The difference between a `.twb` that opens with all fields/sheets intact and one that fails to load or silently drops fields — version-form choice, the datasource linkage rule, and the error-code→fix table when an apply fails.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none (REST publish errors 406/403132 omitted as Cloud/Server, not Desktop authoring)
+- Tags: twb, twbx, version, manifest, manifestbyversion, document-format-change-manifest, datasource, column-instance, error-codes, won-t-open, repository-location
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "workbook won't open", "fields stripped on load", "internal error 2805CF18", "501CF476", "what version should the workbook be", "ManifestByVersion", "version 18.1 vs 26.1", "build a twb from scratch", "fields not available in the datasource", "filter dropped invalid", "colors showing default not my hex"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this when hand-authoring or heavily editing workbook XML and you need it to open cleanly — choosing `version=`/manifest form, wiring a datasource, or debugging a "won't open" / silent-field-strip / cryptic-internal-error failure after a `apply-workbook`. For the on-disk tree shape see [Tableau Workbook File Structure](data/knowledge/strategy/data-modeling/workbook-anatomy.md); for the column-instance `[deriv:field:resulttype]` casing and nk/ok/qk enums see `expertise://tableau/tactics/tree/enums`; for calc-field authoring see [Calculated Fields, Parameters & Table Calculations](data/knowledge/strategy/analytics/calc-fields-strategy.md); for dashboard zones see `expertise://tableau/tactics/dashboard/zones`.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Version: what the number means
+
+The `<workbook version=…>` / `original-version` attribute is the **file-format base, not the product release**. Real Desktop-saved files almost always carry **`version='18.1'`** — the base of the post-2018.1 format system. **`18.1` is not "old," and you must not blindly "upgrade" it.** The real "version" of a document is its **manifest**: the `<document-format-change-manifest>` list of format-change feature names the document actually uses, checked at load against the build's capabilities. If a manifest name isn't in the program's capabilities, the file won't load. (`version='18.1'` ≠ Tableau 2018.1 — the build is in `source-build`.)
+
+> *Verify by opening (Desktop 2026.2):* the version/manifest mechanics in this section are adapted from the source plugin (which traces them to the Tableau File Format team) but have **not** been re-confirmed against a Desktop save in this repo. Before relying on them — especially the `18.1`-vs-`26.1` save behavior — save a file from your target Desktop build and inspect its `version`/manifest. Treat the specifics as strong leads, not settled fact, until opened.
+
+### Two valid authoring forms — pick deliberately
+
+| | **Modern (recommended for fresh/agent-authored)** | **Classic (to match/round-trip a real file)** |
+|---|---|---|
+| `version` / `original-version` | `26.1` | `18.1` |
+| manifest body | `<ManifestByVersion />` (or omit the manifest entirely — see below) | explicit list of the format-change names actually used |
+| when to use | generating fresh workbooks; simplest to get right | matching a specific Desktop build or round-tripping an existing file — copy its exact `version` + manifest from a known-good same-build file, don't invent it |
+
+`<ManifestByVersion/>` is shorthand that, at load, is understood to resolve the **frozen capability set for the targeted shipped version** (26.1, 26.2 — not the dev "current") and expand it to the full feature-flag list, so you don't hand-write the manifest. It must live **inside** `<document-format-change-manifest>`. *(This expansion mechanism is from the source plugin's read of the product source — verify by opening before treating the exact behavior as settled.)*
+
+**Product-blessed simplest form:** Tableau's own canonical test fixture (`minimal.twb`, v26.1, opens in product) uses `version='26.1'` with **no manifest and no `<ManifestByVersion/>` at all** — just the version attribute, columns, and an empty `<worksheets/>`. So version-attribute-only is valid for fresh authoring; `<ManifestByVersion/>` is a useful optional mechanism, not a requirement. Emit **plain, undecorated** element names — never copy the `_.fcp.*` feature-fork decorations seen in 18.1 files (those are written/read by an automated downgrade process, not hand-authored).
+
+### The skeleton (modern 26.1)
+
+```xml
+<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
+<workbook original-version='26.1' version='26.1'
+  xmlns:user='http://www.tableausoftware.com/xml/user'>
+  <document-format-change-manifest>
+    <ManifestByVersion />
+  </document-format-change-manifest>
+  <!-- repository-location: include ONLY when authoring for Cloud/Server publishing (omit for a purely-local Desktop workbook) -->
+  <repository-location id='WORKBOOK_ID' path='/t/SITE/workbooks' revision='1.0' site='SITE' />
+  <preferences />
+  <datasources> ... </datasources>
+  <worksheets> ... </worksheets>
+  <dashboards> ... </dashboards>
+  <windows> ... </windows>
+</workbook>
+```
+
+Top-level child **order is enforced** by the XSD sequence: `document-format-change-manifest → repository-location? → preferences? → … → datasources → … → worksheets → dashboards? → windows? → …`.
+
+### The load-bearing rules
+
+- **`<repository-location>` is publish-only.** It's needed on the workbook AND every worksheet AND dashboard *when authoring for Cloud/Server publishing* — missing it there is a "won't open" cause (error **501CF476**). For a purely-local Desktop workbook, **omit it** (don't hardcode a `/t/SITE/...` server path you don't have). This is also why the authoring skill's invariant says not to fabricate connection/repository-location values.
+- **The datasource needs five linked pieces that must agree:** the `<connection>`/`<relation>`, the `<metadata-records>`, the field `<column>`s, the `<object-graph>`, and (per sheet) the `<datasource-dependencies>`. An ID mismatch among them is the most common cause of **silent field stripping** ("fields are used in the workbook but are not available in the datasource"). The `<object-id>` in each metadata-record must equal the `<object-graph>` object `id`, and the `[__tableau_internal_object_id__].[_OBJECT_ID]` table-type column links the object to the datasource.
+- **Declare every pill in `<datasource-dependencies>`.** Every field referenced in `<rows>`, `<cols>`, an `<encodings>` child, a `<filter>`, a sort, or a label must appear as both a `<column>` (the field) and a `<column-instance>` (the specific pill). Omit it and Tableau strips the field on load.
+- **Column-instance naming `[deriv:field:resulttype]`:** the name-token derivation is **lowercase** (`none`, `sum`, `avg`, `ctd`, `yr`…) but the `derivation=` **attribute is capitalized** (`None`, `Sum`, `Avg`, `CountD`, `Year`…). Both are required and both checked — e.g. `name='[sum:Sales:qk]'` carries `derivation='Sum'`. Result type: `nk` nominal, `ok` ordinal/date, `qk` quantitative.
+- **`<mark>` uses `class`, never `type`.** `<mark class='Bar'/>` is the shipped form; `type=` only exists behind a test-only feature flag. A "`<mark> missing required attribute 'type'`" error means you validated against the wrong branch.
+- **Two `<encoding>` forms — don't confuse them.** Mark encodings inside a `<pane>` use element-named children with `column=`: `<color column='[ds].[pill]'/>`. The `<encoding attr='color' field='…'/>` form is a *different* element used only inside `<style-rule>` for palette/axis formatting. Tableau's `marks_encodings_basic.twb` test fixture uses the `attr/field` form inside `<pane>` because it feeds a lenient indexer — do not copy that into a real worksheet.
+- **Dashboard zones** live in a 0–100000 coordinate space; outermost `type-v2='layout-basic'`, containers `type-v2='layout-flow'` + `param='horz'|'vert'`, leaf zones carry `name=` only. `<zone-style>` comes *after* nested child zones. Full rules and the three production-observed assertions are in `expertise://tableau/tactics/dashboard/zones` — read it before hand-crafting dashboard XML.
+- **Windows:** a worksheet `<window>` needs `<cards>`; a dashboard `<window>` needs a **non-empty** `<viewpoints>` listing every contained sheet, then `<active id='-1'/>`. An *empty* `<viewpoints/>` is the fatal, line-less `2805CF18` Internal Error. Put `<zoom type='entire-view'/>` on each viewpoint or a faceted Text/BAN sheet can clip to one glyph. Window identity is unique across worksheet *and* dashboard names — don't name a dashboard the same as a sheet it contains.
+
+### Validate, diff, open — the gate
+
+1. **Well-formedness check (NOT structural):** the MCP `validate-workbook-xml` / `validate-worksheet-xml` tools check only that the XML is **well-formed (parseable)** — typos, unclosed tags, bad nesting. Their own description says "This does NOT validate against XSD schema." So a PASS means "parses," **not** "structurally valid" and **not** "Tableau will open it." Catching child-order/required-attr/enum mistakes is the job of the **diff-against-a-known-good real file** (step 2), and the final proof is opening it (step 3). *(Separately, the plugin's dev script `twb-validate.py` does run real XSD validation against the bundled schema — but that XSD is itself over-strict (rejects Tableau's own `minimal.twb`) and under-strict (blind to the load-time manifest/capabilities gate and `processContents="skip"` islands), so even it is a lint, not a gate.)*
+2. **Diff against a known-good same-version real `.twb`** to surface any tag/attribute/enum/order yours uses that a file that *opens* never does — stronger than the lint for catching "won't open" bugs.
+3. **The only proof is opening the workbook in Tableau** with all sheets/fields intact (apply via `apply-workbook(mode=file)`). Where the XSD and a real same-version file disagree, trust the real file.
+
+**Bisect a line-less Internal Error.** A `2805CF18`/generic error with no line number can't be localized by reading XML. Start from a minimal file that opens (1 connection + 1 bar) and add one construct per probe — color map → dashboard → calc → filter — re-applying at each step. The step that breaks is the cause.
+
+### Error reference
+
+| Error / symptom | Root cause | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| **2805CF18** Internal Error, **no line number** | empty `<viewpoints/>` on a dashboard window (and similar line-less load failures) | viewpoints must list every sheet; when there's no line number, **bisect** — don't read XML |
+| **501CF476** Internal Error on open *(publishing only)* | missing `<repository-location>` on workbook/worksheet/dashboard when publishing to Cloud/Server | add it to all three (publish path only; omit for local Desktop) |
+| **D2E8DA72** DTD: `angle` | `<angle>` is not a valid encoding | use `<wedge-size>` for pie |
+| **D2E8DA72** DTD: zone `type` | legacy `layout-vertical/horizontal/view` | use `type-v2='layout-basic'` / `'layout-flow' param=…`; leaf zones name-only |
+| **D2E8DA72** DTD: window content model | `<simple-id>` without required preceding elements | worksheet→`<cards>`; dashboard→`<viewpoints>`/`<active id='-1'>` |
+| "no declaration found for element 'computed-sort'" | `<computed-sort>` used without the `SortTagCleanup` manifest flag | add `<SortTagCleanup/>` to the manifest, or use the legacy `<sort>` form |
+| "windows declares duplicate identity constraint" | a worksheet and a dashboard share a `name` | name dashboards distinctly from their sheets |
+| Sheet renders tiny / clipped / packed top-left | viewpoint missing `<zoom type='entire-view'/>` | add it to every dashboard viewpoint |
+| "The filter on X is invalid" (warning, filter dropped) | `<groupfilter level=>` uses the base column, not the column-instance | `level='[none:X:nk]'` matching the filter's `column=` |
+| Colors render as Tableau defaults, not your hex | mapped column-instance not declared at **datasource scope**, or `palette=` present on the `<encoding>` | declare the `<column-instance>` at datasource scope; drop `palette=` |
+| Fields stripped silently ("will be removed") | missing `<column-instance>` in deps, OR empty `<object-graph>` / missing table-type column | declare `<column>`+`<column-instance>` per pill; use a real object-graph + the table-type column |
+| Malformed expression | space-separated measures on a shelf | join with `+` in parens: `([ds].[sum:a:qk] + [ds].[sum:b:qk])` |
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- Treating `version='18.1'` as old and "upgrading" it — it's the format base, the norm in real files.
+- Copying 18.1 idioms into fresh 26.1 authoring: `_.fcp.*` feature-fork decorations, `type=` zones, dual-written relations, `<layout dim-percentage>` (26.1 uses the `-v2` percentage forms and requires `dim-ordering`/`measure-ordering`/`show-structure` if `<layout>` is present).
+- Emitting `<mark type=>` or `<worksheet number=>` or `default-aggregation` on `<column>` — all test-only/wrong branches; the product writes `<mark class=>`, plain `<worksheet name=>`, and aggregation on the per-pill column-instance.
+- Trusting an XSD PASS as proof the file opens, or treating a FAIL as proof it won't — validate, diff against a real file, then open.
+- Copying the `<encoding attr='color' field=>` form from a test fixture into a real `<pane>` instead of `<color column=>`.
+
+## Implementation
+
+For fresh authoring, start from a known-good same-version `.twb`, not from memory. Emit the modern form (`version='26.1'` + `<ManifestByVersion/>`, or version-attribute-only), plain undecorated element names, correct child order. Wire the five datasource pieces with matching IDs; declare every pill (including filters) as `<column>` + `<column-instance>`; add `<simple-id>` UUIDs (and `<repository-location>` only if publishing to Cloud/Server). Then run the MCP validate tools to catch **well-formedness** errors only (typos/unclosed tags — they do NOT check structure), diff against a known-good real file for the structural drift (child-order/required-attr/enum) that actually causes "won't open," and apply via `apply-workbook(mode=file)` and open to confirm all sheets/fields survive. When a load fails with a line-less error, bisect rather than reading XML.
+

+# TWB XML Grammar: Element Child-Order & Required Attributes
+
+The content-model dictionary for hand-authoring workbook XML: the exact child-order sequence and required attributes of each load-bearing element, distilled from the Tableau product XSD set.
+
+The difference between "well-formed XML" and "XML Tableau will actually load."
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, validate, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Getting element child-order, required attributes, and the formatter-vs-fixture form exactly right is what separates a `.twb` that loads from one Tableau rejects or silently strips — the lookup layer beneath the authoring playbook.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: twb, xml, grammar, child-order, schema, xsd, column-instance, encodings, mark-class, zones, datasource-dependencies
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "what order do the elements go in", "child order of pane / table / zone", "required attributes for column-instance", "this element is not expected error", "mark class vs type", "encoding column vs attr field", "rows cols after panes", "zone child order", "reference line required attributes"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this as the structural reference when hand-authoring or repairing workbook XML and you hit an ordering/attribute error ("element X is not expected; expected is Y", "missing required attribute", silent field/mark drop). It answers "what's the exact shape, order, and required attrs of this element." For the *version/manifest* choice and the error-code→fix table see [TWB Authoring Form](data/knowledge/tactics/tree/twb-authoring-form.md); for the enum value lists (mark classes, derivation tokens, filter classes, zone types) see `expertise://tableau/tactics/tree/enums`; for the on-disk tree overview see `expertise://tableau/tactics/tree/workbook-structure`.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Two epistemic traps to resolve first
+
+1. **Test fixtures are NOT Desktop output.** The product's `v26_1/*.twb` test files feed a *lenient* search-indexer and use shapes a strict load rejects — notably `<encoding attr='color' field='…'/>` *inside* `<pane>`, and `default-aggregation='sum'` on `<column>` (not in the grammar at all). Trust fixtures for **datasource** structure (columns, parameters, groups); author the **formatter form** below for **worksheet** panes/marks.
+2. **Many "required" errors are feature-flag/branch artifacts.** The shipped product compiles one branch of each `<!--?IF Flag-->/<!--?ELSE-->`. Never hand-author `<mark type=>` (shipped branch is `class`), `<worksheet number=>`/`<worksheet-number>` (test-only `SheetNumTstAddOnly`), or `default-aggregation` on a column.
+
+### Child-order sequences (strictly enforced)
+
+Order is a `<xs:sequence>` — out-of-order children fail with "element X is not expected."
+
+- **`<workbook>`:** `document-format-change-manifest? → repository-location? → preferences? → style? → actions? → datasources → worksheets? → dashboards? → windows? → thumbnails?` Required attr: `version`. `<worksheets>`/`<dashboards>` enforce unique `name`.
+- **`<table>` (in a worksheet):** `view → style? → panes → mark-layout? → rows → cols → pages? → subtotals? → table-calculations? → show-full-range? → percentages? → mark-labels? → forecast?` — **rows/cols come AFTER `<panes>`; `<pages>` after `<cols>`.**
+- **table-level `<view>`:** `datasources → mapsources? → datasource-dependencies → filters (each `<filter>` or `<hide-filter>`, optionally followed by its `<sort>`) → shelf-sorts? → slices? → aggregation`. `<aggregation value='true'/>` is effectively required.
+- **`<pane>`:** the XSD master declares `view(<breakdown value=…/>) → mark → mark-sizing? → encodings? → label-data* → dropline? → trendline? → reference-line* → customized-tooltip? → customized-label? → style?`. **But pane children are NOT as strictly enforced at load as the rest** — a real `get-workbook-xml` dump in `expertise://tableau/tactics/tree/workbook-structure` shows `<encodings>` *before* `<mark>`, the reverse of the XSD sequence, and it loads. Safe rule: keep `<style>` **last** and `<reference-line>` after `<encodings>`; treat the mark↔encodings order as flexible (match a real same-version file if unsure). *Verify by opening which order your target Desktop build writes.*
+- **`<column>` (datasource):** `localized-server-captions? → calculation? → aliases? → semantic-role? → user-description? → (members | range)?`.
+- **`<column-instance>`:** `table-calc* → utility-members? → aliases?`.
+- **`<dashboard>`:** `(repository-location | vizlayoutoptions){0,2} → style? → size? → datasources&deps → zones → devicelayouts? → simple-id`.
+- **`<zone>`:** `formatted-text? → layout-cache? → (nested zone)* → flipboard? → (button|add-in|layout)? → zone-style?` — `<layout-cache>` is **first**, `<zone-style>` comes **after** nested child zones.
+- **worksheet `<window>`:** `<cards> → simple-id?`. **dashboard `<window>`:** `<viewpoints> → <active id=…/> → device-preview? → simple-id?`. (The XSD *group* names these `visual-doc`/`visual-docs`, but the element Tableau actually writes — and that error messages reference — is `<cards>` / `<viewpoints>`; author the latter, matching [TWB Authoring Form](data/knowledge/tactics/tree/twb-authoring-form.md) and the real-file dump. An empty `<viewpoints/>` is the fatal line-less `2805CF18`.)
+
+### Required attributes per element
+
+- **`<column>`:** `name` (`[Bracketed]`), `role` (`dimension|measure|unknown`), `type` (`nominal|ordinal|quantitative|unknown`), `datatype` (`string|integer|real|boolean|date|datetime|spatial|table`). Explicit aggregation is the **capitalized** `aggregation='Sum'` — never `default-aggregation`.
+- **`<column-instance>`:** all five of `name`, `column`, `type`, `pivot` (`key|alias`), and `derivation` (the aggregation, capitalized — `None`/`Sum`/`Avg`/`CountD`/`Year`…). The `name` token is **lowercase** (`[sum:Sales:qk]`) while the `derivation` attribute is **capitalized** (`derivation='Sum'`) — both required, keep consistent. (Full token/casing list: `expertise://tableau/tactics/tree/enums`.)
+- **`<mark>`:** `class` (required — NOT `type`). Enum in the tactics `enums` reference; `Sankey`/`Sunburst`/`Heatmap`/`VizExtension` are feature-flag-gated.
+- **`<reference-line>`:** `id`, `axis-column`, `value-column`, `scope` (`per-cell|per-pane|per-table`), `label-type`, `z-order`, `formula` (`constant|total|sum|min|max|average|median|quantiles|percentile|stdev|confidence`), `enable-instant-analytics`.
+- **`<filter>`:** `column` (the **column-instance** pill, not the base column — the #1 filter trap), `class` (`categorical|quantitative|relative-date`). `filter-group` is optional (omit = independent AND filters).
+- **`<zone>`:** `x`, `y`, `w`, `h` (int, 0–100000 space), `id` (unique within `<zones>`). Container type is `type-v2` (`layout-basic` outermost; `layout-flow` + `param='horz'|'vert'` for rows/cols); leaf zones carry `name=` only.
+- **`<layout-cache>`:** `type-w` and `type-h` (`fixed|cell|scalable`), + optional min/max/fixed sizes.
+
+### The encodings form (the #1 worksheet trap)
+
+Inside `<pane><encodings>`, the Desktop **formatter** emits **element-named children with `column=`**:
+```xml
+<encodings>
+  <color column='[ds].[none:Region:nk]'/>
+  <wedge-size column='[ds].[sum:Sales:qk]'/>
+</encodings>
+```
+Children: `color, size, text, shape, wedge-size, lod, geometry, image, tooltip, path, level, edge, custom` (any count/order). The `<encoding attr='color' field='…' type='palette'>` form is a **different element** used only inside a `<style-rule>` for palette/axis/legend formatting — never inside `<pane><encodings>`. Discrete-color-to-hex maps live in that style-rule form (and the mapped column-instance must also be declared at datasource scope — see the authoring-form entry).
+
+### Feature-flagged elements need their flag in the manifest
+
+Any `<!--?IF Flag-->` element only loads if its flag is in the document's `<document-format-change-manifest>` (or the build's capabilities). Confirmed by open: `<computed-sort>` without `<SortTagCleanup/>` fails with "no declaration found for element 'computed-sort'." Either include the flag, use `<ManifestByVersion/>`, or emit the non-flagged legacy form.
+
+### `<rows>`/`<cols>` are simple string content
+
+The pill algebra is a string: `[ds].[sum:Sales:qk]`. Field separators (`/`, `*`, `+`, `,`) are interchangeable to the parser — use `/`. `<pages>` by contrast is *element* content (`<column>QN</column>`+). Join multiple measures on one shelf with `+` in parens; space-separated causes "Malformed expression."
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- Emitting children out of the strict sequence (rows/cols before panes; pane `<style>` not last; `<zone-style>` before nested zones; `<layout-cache>` not first) → "element X is not expected."
+- Copying the fixture `<encoding attr= field=>` form into a real `<pane>` instead of `<color column=>` → marks don't encode.
+- Using the base column (`[Status]`) instead of the column-instance pill (`[none:Status:nk]`) in a filter/encoding/shelf `column=`.
+- Mixing the derivation casing — lowercase name token vs capitalized `derivation=` attribute must both be present and agree.
+- Authoring `<mark type=>`, `<worksheet number=>`, or `default-aggregation` (all wrong/test-only branches).
+- Emitting a feature-flagged element without its flag in the manifest.
+
+## Implementation
+
+When a `apply-workbook` fails on structure ("element not expected", "missing required attribute", silent drop), look up the offending element here for its exact child-order position and required attrs, then fix the sequence/attributes. Note the MCP `validate-workbook-xml` and `validate-worksheet-xml` tools check **well-formedness only** (parseable XML) — they do NOT catch the child-order/required-attr/enum mistakes this entry is about; that's what **diffing against a known-good same-version real `.twb`** surfaces, and opening in Tableau is the final proof. For value enums, defer to the tactics `enums` reference rather than restating them here.
+
+## Related Knowledge
+
+- Pairs with [TWB Authoring Form](data/knowledge/tactics/tree/twb-authoring-form.md): that is the *playbook* (version/manifest choice, the build workflow, the error-code→fix table); this is the *grammar dictionary* (per-element child order + required attrs). They reference each other, not duplicate.
+- Defers value enums to `expertise://tableau/tactics/tree/enums` (mark classes, derivation tokens, filter classes, zone types) and the tree overview / real-file dump to `expertise://tableau/tactics/tree/workbook-structure` (the canonical core entry this is flagged to promote into).
+- The encodings/color-map and filter-pill rules connect to [Field & Mark Type Reference](data/knowledge/strategy/analytics/field-types-reference.md).
+
+## Source and Confidence
+
+- Source/evidence type: external reference (adapted with permission)
+- Source: adapted from `plugin-tableau-master` (`references/twb-xml-grammar.md`) by Jon Plax, used with the author's permission. Underlying grammar traces to the Tableau product XSD set (`sf-analyticscloud/monolith` `modules/XSD/`) and real-corpus dissection. The structural-diff capability the plugin's `twb-diff.py` provides is a tooling gap here (our MCP `validate-workbook-xml` / `validate-worksheet-xml` tools do well-formedness only — see `docs/tooling-gaps.md`); until it exists, diff manually against a real `.twb` dump from `get-workbook-xml`. Rows marked confirmed-by-open in the source were verified against Tableau Desktop 2026.2; treat unverified grammar specifics as strong leads until opened.

+
+## Stories: two XML shapes
+
+A Tableau **story** is a sequential deck of "story points," each capturing a dashboard or worksheet plus a navigator caption. There are **two on-disk shapes**, and code that reads or edits stories must handle both:
+
+- **Older shape:** a top-level `<story name='…'>` element containing `<flipboard><story-points><story-point …/></story-points></flipboard>`.
+- **Newer shape:** a `<dashboard name='…' type-v2='storyboard'>` that wraps the same `flipboard` / `story-points` tree. These live in the `<dashboards>` node and look like dashboards — detect the `type-v2='storyboard'` attribute so you don't treat a storyboard's flipboard chrome as a normal dashboard zone layout.
+
+Each `<story-point>` references a `captured-sheet` (a dashboard or a worksheet by name) and carries the navigator caption. Resolve `captured-sheet` against the workbook's dashboard and worksheet name sets to know whether a point captures a whole dashboard or a single worksheet.
+
+What is **not** separately recoverable from the XML: per-point filter/highlight **state divergence** (two story points capturing the same sheet with different filters look the same structurally — the differing state isn't a clean diff), and Tableau "update" points that re-capture a modified state. Treat those as manual when reproducing a story elsewhere.
+
+---
+
+## Navigating with Python (xml.etree.ElementTree)
+
+Use stdlib `xml.etree.ElementTree` — no extra dependencies needed.
+
+```python
+import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
+
+# Preserve namespaces on round-trip
+ET.register_namespace('user', 'http://www.tableausoftware.com/xml/user')
+ET.register_namespace('', '')  # default namespace (none)
+
+tree = ET.parse('cache/workbook-XXXX.xml')
+root = tree.getroot()  # <workbook> element

+view = ws.find('table/view')
+ds_deps = view.find("datasource-dependencies[@datasource='federated.XXXX']")
+```
+
+### Key XPath patterns
+
+| Goal | XPath from `root` |
+|---|---|
+| All datasources | `root.findall('datasources/datasource')` |
+| Specific datasource | `root.find("datasources/datasource[@name='federated.XXXX']")` |
+| All worksheets | `root.findall('worksheets/worksheet')` |
+| Named worksheet | `root.find("worksheets/worksheet[@name='Sheet 1']")` |
+| View inside worksheet | `ws.find('table/view')` |
+| DS-deps in view | `view.find("datasource-dependencies[@datasource='federated.XXXX']")` |
+| All filters in view | `view.findall('filter')` |
+| All column-instances | `ds_deps.findall('column-instance')` |
+| Named window | `root.find("windows/window[@name='Sheet 1']")` |
+| Named dashboard | `root.find("dashboards/dashboard[@name='Dashboard 1']")` |
+
+---
+
+## Namespace handling
+
+The `xmlns:user` namespace is used for filter attributes like `user:ui-marker` and `user:ui-enumeration`. ElementTree expands these to Clark notation internally: `{http://www.tableausoftware.com/xml/user}ui-marker`.
+
+```python
+USER_NS = 'http://www.tableausoftware.com/xml/user'
+
+# Setting a user: attribute
+groupfilter_el.set(f'{{{USER_NS}}}ui-marker', 'union')
+
+# Reading a user: attribute
+val = groupfilter_el.get(f'{{{USER_NS}}}ui-marker')
+```
+
+Register the namespace prefix before writing so the output uses `user:` not the Clark form:
+
+```python
+ET.register_namespace('user', USER_NS)
+tree.write('/tmp/modified_workbook.xml', encoding='utf-8', xml_declaration=True)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Saving and submitting
+
+```python
+tree.write('/tmp/modified_workbook.xml', encoding='utf-8', xml_declaration=True)
+# Then call: apply-workbook({ workbook_file: "/tmp/modified_workbook.xml" })
+```
+
+Verify with `get_sheets_info` after submission.
+
+---
+
+## Nodes to NEVER modify
+
+| Node | Location | Why |
+|---|---|---|
+| `document-format-change-manifest` | direct child of `<workbook>` | Version compatibility metadata |
+| `repository-location` | direct child of `<workbook>` | Workbook file path on server |
+| `connection` | inside each `<datasource>` | DB/file connection strings and paths |
+| `named-connections` | inside each `<datasource>` | Connection definitions with live file paths |
+| `datasource-relationships` | direct child of `<workbook>` | Relationship definitions between datasources |
+| `datasource[@name='Parameters']` | in `<datasources>` | Each `<column>` child is a parameter definition |
+
+**TWBX temp paths:** When a `.twbx` is open, `connection`/`named-connections` paths point to OS temp folders (e.g. `/var/folders/xx/.../Orders.hyper`). These are correct and live — never rewrite them.
+
+**Published datasources:** Have `connection class="sqlproxy"`. Local file-based use `"hyper"`, `"excel-direct"`, `"textscan"`. Do not change the class.
+
+---
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this module when you need to:
+- **Understand the workbook XML / TWB tree** and navigate it correctly (or the JSON representation when using converters)
+- **Find a specific node** — a datasource, worksheet, window, dashboard, or actions node
+- **Add a calculated field** to an existing datasource
+- **Create a new worksheet** with the required companion `window` node
+- **Know which nodes to preserve** — connection strings, repository-location, datasource-relationships, Parameters datasource
+
+For column-instances, mark encodings, and worksheet internals, see `workbook-worksheets.md` and `workbook-encodings.md`.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Navigate by structure, not fragile indices**: Node order can vary; identify nodes by element name / role rather than assuming fixed child positions.
+- **Never modify preserved nodes**: `connection`, `named-connections`, `repository-location`, `datasource-relationships`, and `document-format-change-manifest` must not be changed without an explicit user request.
+- **Use a fresh workbook snapshot before every modification**: After `apply-workbook`, re-read with `get-workbook-xml` (or file path from the tool) so you are not editing stale XML.
+- **Always pair worksheet + window additions**: A new worksheet without a matching `window` entry can be dropped or invisible in Tableau.
+- **Never guess datasource IDs**: Datasource `name` values like `federated.XXXX` come from Tableau — read them from the live workbook XML.
+- **TWBX temp paths are valid**: When a `.twbx` is open, connection paths may point at OS temp folders; do not rewrite them.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Index-based tree traversal** against parsed JSON: prefer name/type navigation; order is not stable across round-trips.
+2. **Adding a dashboard under `worksheets`**: Dashboards belong in `dashboards`; wrong placement can crash load.
+3. **Modifying the `Parameters` datasource unintentionally**: Skip unless the user asked to edit parameters.
+4. **Re-using stale cached workbook files** across multiple apply calls without re-fetching from Tableau.
+5. **Omitting `datasources` inside `view`**: Worksheet views need both datasource reference and `datasource-dependencies` as required by Tableau.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation (Tableau Desktop MCP)
+
+Typical flow with XML on disk:
+
+1. `get-workbook-xml` → edit the returned `.xml` path (or use `mode=inline` for small workbooks).
+2. Apply structural changes following the modules above.
+3. `apply-workbook` with the modified file path.
+4. Verify with worksheet/dashboard list readback.
+
+---
+
+## What to safely add or modify
+
+| What | Where |
+|---|---|
+| `<column>` with `<calculation>` child | inside the target `<datasource>` |
+| `<worksheet>` + matching `<window>` | `<worksheets>` and `<windows>` respectively |
+| `<dashboard>` | `<dashboards>` |
+| Mark type | `<mark class="...">` inside `<pane>` |
+| Encodings (color, size, text) | `<encodings>` inside `<pane>` |
+| Rows/cols shelf | `<rows>` and `<cols>` text content inside `<table>` |
+| Filters | `<filter>` children of `<view>` |
+
+**Every new worksheet needs a matching `<window>` node** — missing the window entry causes workbook document apply to silently fail.
+
+---
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this module when you need to:
+
+- Understand the **overall TWB XML file structure** (element hierarchy, node ordering)
+- Know which **nodes are safe to modify** vs. which must never be touched
+- Get the **correct XPath patterns** for navigating the tree with Python's `xml.etree.ElementTree`
+- Understand **namespace handling** for `user:` prefixed attributes
+- Know the standard **save-and-submit workflow** (`get-workbook-xml` → modify → `apply-workbook`)
+
+For chart-specific XML patterns, see the other knowledge modules (`workbook-worksheets.md`, `workbook-encodings.md`, etc.).
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Never modify `connection`, `named-connections`, `document-format-change-manifest`, `repository-location`, or the `Parameters` datasource**: These nodes contain workbook metadata and live connection state. Modifying them breaks the workbook.
+- **Always register the `user:` namespace prefix** before writing: `ET.register_namespace('user', 'http://www.tableausoftware.com/xml/user')`. Otherwise `user:` attrs are written in Clark notation.
+- **Call `get-workbook-xml` immediately before every modification**: The cached file path changes after each `apply-workbook`. Always use the freshest path.
+- **Navigate by attribute, not by index**: Element order inside `worksheets`, `datasources`, and `windows` is not guaranteed. Use `find()` with attribute predicates, not `[0]`/`[1]` indexing.
+- **Every new worksheet requires a matching `window` entry**: Missing the window entry causes workbook document apply to silently fail and the sheet to be dropped.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Modifying `connection` or `named-connections`**: These nodes contain live file paths (including OS temp paths for open `.twbx` files). Changing them breaks the datasource connection.
+2. **Adding a dashboard to `worksheets`**: Dashboards belong in the `dashboards` node. Adding a dashboard to `worksheets` causes Tableau to crash on load.
+3. **Forgetting the `window` entry for a new worksheet**: This is the most common cause of "sheet disappeared after submission." Always submit worksheet + window together.
+4. **Using positional indexing to navigate the tree**: The `worksheets`, `windows`, and `datasources` elements may contain elements in any order. Always find by name attribute.
+5. **Re-using a stale cached file path**: After each `apply-workbook`, the workbook state is updated. Submitting from a stale file silently discards all intermediate changes.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+The standard Python workflow for any workbook modification:
+
+1. **Get the current file path**: Call `get-workbook-xml` — returns `{ filePath, fileUrl }` pointing to the cached XML.
+2. **Parse**: `tree = ET.parse(WORKBOOK_FILE); root = tree.getroot()` — root is the `<workbook>` element.
+3. **Navigate** using `root.find('datasources')`, `root.find('worksheets')`, `root.find('windows')`, `root.find('dashboards')`.
+4. **Modify**: append, set attributes, or remove elements as needed (see other modules for specifics).
+5. **Write**: `tree.write('/tmp/modified_workbook.xml', encoding='utf-8', xml_declaration=True)`.
+6. **Submit**: `apply-workbook({ workbook_file: "/tmp/modified_workbook.xml" })`.
+7. **Verify**: use worksheet-list readback or `get-workbook-xml` to confirm changes applied.

+# Analytics Pane Reference: Trend, Forecast, Cluster, Reference Lines
+
+How to add Tableau's built-in statistics — trend lines, forecasting, clustering, reference/distribution bands, box plots — and read each output *honestly*.
+
+Covers the statistics Tableau computes for you, the stat functions you write yourself (CORR, the WINDOW_* family), and the limits that keep them from producing a confident-but-wrong dashboard.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, validate
+- In-scope reason: Frequently-asked "how do I add a trend line / forecast / cluster, and what does the output actually mean" — backs the statistical-trap and EDA guidance in chart-selection with the concrete Analytics-pane mechanics and the honest read of each model.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none (TabPy/Rserve/Einstein analytics *extensions* deliberately omitted — that's data-science integration, not Desktop authoring)
+- Tags: analytics-pane, trend-line, forecast, clustering, reference-line, distribution-band, box-plot, control-chart, r-squared, p-value, confidence-interval, statistical-functions
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "add a trend line", "what does R squared mean", "how to forecast in Tableau", "is this forecast any good", "k-means clustering", "add a reference line", "confidence interval band", "box plot", "control chart", "standard deviation band", "CORR / WINDOW_CORR", "z-score outliers"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this when a user wants to add a built-in statistic from the Analytics pane (trend/forecast/cluster/reference line/box plot) or compute a statistic in a calc (CORR, STDEV, WINDOW_*), and needs both the mechanic *and* the honest interpretation. For *which* analysis a question needs and the statistical traps, see [Chart Type Selection](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/chart-selection.md) (Statistical Traps + EDA-First sections); for the calc recipes behind cohort/Pareto/ranking, see [LOD & Table-Calc Pattern Cookbook](data/knowledge/tactics/data/lod-and-table-calc-patterns.md).
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### The Analytics pane — what Tableau computes for you
+
+Drag from the **Analytics pane** (left rail, second tab next to Data) onto the view; items snap into Table / Pane / Cell or per-axis drop zones, computed by the stats engine at render time (no calc). Right-click the result → **Edit** for its dialog; **Describe Trend Model / Describe Forecast / Describe Clusters** expose the underlying numbers.
+
+| Item | What it adds | The honest read |
+|---|---|---|
+| Trend Line | a fitted model line + optional confidence bands | R² + p-value in the tooltip; not causation |
+| Forecast | future periods via exponential smoothing | GOOD/OK/POOR quality; bands = precision, not accuracy |
+| Cluster | k-means group as a discrete pill on Color | deterministic; auto-k can't return k=1 |
+| Reference Line / Band / Distribution | constant/computed line, shaded band, box plot, control limits | defines the comparison baseline |
+
+### Trend lines
+
+Five model types (both axes must be numeric — a continuous green date is fine; a cube string date is not):
+
+| Model | Fitted form | Use when |
+|---|---|---|
+| Linear | `Y = b0 + b1·X` | constant absolute change |
+| Logarithmic | `Y = b0 + b1·ln(X)` | diminishing returns; X > 0 |
+| Exponential | `Y = exp(b0)·exp(b1·X)` | constant % growth/decay |
+| Power | `Y = b0·X^b1` | scale-free / allometric |
+| Polynomial | `Y = b0 + b1·X + b2·X² + …` | curvature; degree 2–8 |
+
+Constraints: **Logarithmic/Exponential/Power silently filter out non-positive values** before fitting; **confidence lines aren't supported for Exponential**; higher-degree polynomials need more data and overfit by construction. **Reading R²/p:** R² = how well the line fits *these* points; p ≤ 0.05 is the usual "significant" convention, but its validity rests on i.i.d. errors — time-series (autocorrelated) data violates that, so a "significant" trend on monthly sales is weaker than the number suggests. Hover for R²/p, or right-click → **Describe Trend Model** for per-term coefficients.
+
+### Forecasting (exponential smoothing)
+
+Analytics pane → **Forecast** (needs ≥1 date dimension + ≥1 measure). Tableau fits up to **8 models (5 seasonal + 3 non-seasonal, Holt-Winters family)** and returns the lowest **AIC**. Data minimums: **≥5 points** for trend; for seasonality, **whichever is larger** of two full seasons or one season + 5 periods — i.e. **9 points for a 4-quarter cycle** (max of 8 and 9) and **24 for a 12-month cycle** (max of 24 and 17). (Provision to the per-cycle minimum; *verify against help.tableau.com.*) A **multiplicative model can't compute when any value ≤ 0**.
+
+**Read the quality indicator first** (Describe Forecast → Summary): **GOOD/OK/POOR** measured against a naive forecast (next = current). OK = better than naive; GOOD = less than half naive's error; POOR = no better than naive. **The prediction band is precision, not accuracy** — a tight band around a POOR forecast is tightly wrong. Never present a band edge as a worst/best-case guarantee. **Forecast Options** sets model, length, and interval (90/95/99%).
+
+### Clustering (k-means)
+
+Analytics pane → **Cluster** drops a deterministic k-means group onto Color. Key facts: **Lloyd's algorithm, squared Euclidean distance**; **deterministic** (divisive initializer, not random seed — same inputs + k → same clusters); inputs are **min-max normalized to [0,1]** (so a single outlier stretches the range — check distributions first); **auto-k via Calinski-Harabasz**, which is **undefined for k=1 and so can never tell you "don't split"** — it will hand you ≥2 groups even if the data isn't clustered. Validate with **Describe Clusters** (between/within sum-of-squares, per-variable ANOVA F + p); try k−1 and k+1; sanity-check the groups mean something. Drag the field to the Data pane to persist it as a group.
+
+### Reference lines, bands, distributions, box plots
+
+Right-click axis → **Add Reference Line**, or drag from the pane. A **reference distribution** has four types: Percentages, Percentiles, Quantiles, Standard Deviation.
+- **Box plot** (Analytics pane → Box Plot, or Show Me) = the middle 50% (Q1–Q3) as the box. Whiskers: "within 1.5× IQR" (schematic, outliers drawn individually) or "maximum extent" (skeletal). The no-calc path to the five-number summary — **disaggregate** (`Analysis ▸ Aggregate Measures` off) or it's a flat single mark.
+- **Control chart (mean ± Nσ)**: build from a **Standard Deviation reference distribution** — set the **factor** (e.g. 3 for ±3σ) and **sample vs population**, plus a Median/Average center line. (Tableau exposes this as a reference-distribution option, not under a "control chart" label.)
+
+### Statistics you write yourself
+
+When you need the number *in* a calc (to label/filter/drive logic), not as a drawn line:
+
+- **Aggregate (data engine):** `CORR(a,b)` (Pearson −1…1), `COVAR`/`COVARP`, `STDEV`/`STDEVP`, `VAR`/`VARP`. **Sample (n−1) vs population (n)** matters — use sample when rows are a sample of a larger universe. **Source-gated:** these run only on extracts + specific live connectors (BigQuery, Oracle, Postgres, Presto, Teradata, Vertica…). On an unsupported live source, extract or use the WINDOW_* fallback.
+- **Windowed (table calcs):** `WINDOW_PERCENTILE`, `WINDOW_STDEV`/`WINDOW_STDEVP`, `WINDOW_VAR`/`WINDOW_VARP`, `WINDOW_MEDIAN`, `WINDOW_CORR`, `WINDOW_COVAR`. Partition/address controls the scope (see the cookbook).
+- **Z-score** (no built-in): `(SUM([M]) - WINDOW_AVG(SUM([M]))) / WINDOW_STDEV(SUM([M]))`, then `|z| > 2` (or 3) flags outliers — the control-chart logic as a calc.
+
+### Honest interpretation — the model's limits
+
+The most valuable thing this does is stop a powerful tool from asserting something false:
+- **Overfitting:** a degree-8 polynomial can hit R²≈1 on noise. Prefer the simplest model that fits; hold out recent periods and see if it still tracks.
+- **Extrapolation:** a fit is evidence only within the observed X range; label forecast regions, state the assumption, shorten the horizon.
+- **Forecast bands ≠ guarantees:** show the GOOD/OK/POOR badge next to any forecast.
+- **Correlation ≠ causation:** a scatter+trend line is the most seductive place to imply cause; annotate the confounder, avoid causal verbs in the title.
+- **i.i.d. violations** (time-series/clustered data) inflate significance — treat trend p-values on time series as directional, not decisive.
+- **Clusters always appear** (auto-k can't return 1; scaling can manufacture separation) — read the ANOVA/SS before believing them.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- Trusting a forecast's tight confidence band without checking the GOOD/OK/POOR quality indicator — a tight band on a POOR forecast is tightly wrong.
+- Reading R² as "importance" or a small p as a big effect / proof of cause; on large n almost everything is "significant."
+- Believing a cluster result because Tableau returned one — auto-k can't tell you the data *isn't* clustered.
+- Building a box plot without disaggregating (`Aggregate Measures` off) → a single flat mark.
+- Using `CORR`/`STDEV` on an unsupported live source and getting an error instead of switching to `WINDOW_*` or extracting.
+- A multiplicative forecast / log-or-power trend on data with ≤0 values (silently filtered or uncomputable).
+
+## Implementation
+
+Pick the Analytics-pane item for the analytical need, drop it on the view, then **read its honesty surface before presenting**: Describe Trend Model (R²/p per term), Describe Forecast (quality + smoothing coefficients), or Describe Clusters (SS + ANOVA). For a layered analytical dashboard: distribution first (box plot/histogram — see spread, not just a mean), then relationship (scatter + trend line, confounder annotated), then trend + forecast with its quality badge, then a cluster validated by Describe Clusters, then a control/outlier band, plus honesty furniture (quality indicators, "data through <date>", non-causal titles). Wire interactivity per the analytical archetype in [dashboard-archetypes](data/knowledge/strategy/dashboard-design/dashboard-archetypes.md).
+
+## Related Knowledge

+- Backs the statistical-trap and EDA-First sections of [Chart Type Selection](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/chart-selection.md) with the concrete Analytics-pane mechanics they reference (this is the entry that file's "forthcoming analytics-pane reference" pointer was waiting on).
+- Complements [LOD & Table-Calc Pattern Cookbook](data/knowledge/tactics/data/lod-and-table-calc-patterns.md): cohort/Pareto/ranking calc recipes there; the windowed stat functions (`WINDOW_CORR`, `WINDOW_STDEV`) bridge the two.

+# Building Tableau Viz Extensions
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau users / SEs building or debugging a custom Viz Extension, especially vibe-coded and loaded locally for development
+- Authoring outcome improved: Get a custom Viz Extension to actually render and bind to worksheet data on the first realistic attempt — by copying a known-good reference, rendering in 2D, and getting the extension lifecycle right
+- In-scope reason: Turns a custom-viz decision (see "Choosing a Custom Viz Solution") into a working extension instead of a black box
+- Out-of-scope risk: Not a publishing/signing guide for the Tableau Exchange; local side-loading only. Cloud/Server deployment and licensing are separate decisions
+- Tags: viz extension, trex, extensions api, local extension, d3-geo, canvas, svg, webgl, globe path, getSummaryDataReaderAsync, manifest, encoding-icon
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "viz extension renders blank", "encoding-icon token invalid detail", "Error creating WebGL context sandbox", "await initializeAsync before first render", "local viz extension Access Local Viz Extensions", "getSummaryDataReaderAsync getAllPagesAsync", "d3-geo orthographic canvas 2D globe", "vendor libraries locally no CDN", "trex manifest xmlns extension_manifest", "apply-workbook install extension programmatically"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when building, debugging, or vibe-coding a custom Tableau **Viz Extension** — particularly when side-loading it locally during development — or when a loaded extension renders blank, errors, or won't parse its manifest. Reach this rung only after "Choosing a Custom Viz Solution" has ruled out native viz and an existing Exchange extension.
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Building a custom worksheet viz that binds to marks-card encodings
+- Loading an unsigned, locally hosted extension via "Access Local Viz Extensions" (no Exchange registration)
+- Debugging a viz extension that loads but shows nothing
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Start from a known-good reference, don't invent.** Download an existing extension's `.trex` (e.g., Globe Path) and mirror its manifest structure, namespace (`xmlns="http://www.tableau.com/xml/extension_manifest"`), `min-api-version`, and especially the **valid `encoding-icon` token values**. Then fetch the extension's hosted HTML to learn how it renders — Globe Path renders into an `<svg>` via d3-geo, which is the tell that it avoids WebGL.
+- **Render in 2D (Canvas/SVG), not WebGL.** The viz-extension sandbox (like the dashboard web page view) cannot create a WebGL context on builds where "Enable Accelerated Graphics" is unsupported. three.js / globe.gl fail with "Error creating WebGL context" and render blank. Use a 2D approach — `d3.geoOrthographic` on a canvas for a globe, SVG/Canvas for other custom charts.
+- **Do not gate your first paint on `initializeAsync`.** The viz-extension handshake reloads the page; if you `await tableau.extensions.initializeAsync()` before drawing, the viz stays blank. Render immediately on load with a fallback dataset, then upgrade to live data after init resolves.
+- **Always ship a hardcoded fallback dataset** so the viz never renders empty during a live demo or before fields are dropped.
+- **Surface errors on-screen.** The sandbox has no visible console. A small on-page status/error element turns a silent black box into a readable failure (this is exactly how "Error creating WebGL context" was diagnosed).
+- **Read worksheet data via the Viz Extensions API:** `tableau.extensions.worksheetContent.worksheet.getSummaryDataReaderAsync()` → `getAllPagesAsync()`; map columns by `fieldName`; call `releaseAsync()`; re-read on `SummaryDataChanged`. Match fields by name so encoding drop-order does not matter.
+- **Vendor libraries locally (no CDN) and serve over `http://localhost:PORT`.** localhost http is allowed for dev; the sandbox blocks many external CDNs. Keep all assets same-origin with the `.trex` source URL.
+- **Use the local server access log as a debugger.** It shows exactly which assets the sandbox fetched — if textures/data were never requested, your render code never ran (a lifecycle bug), not a network problem.
+- **The entire extension wiring is authorable through `apply-workbook` — not just the UI.** A viz-extension worksheet is ordinary workbook XML: a `<mark class='VizExtension'/>`, an `<add-in add-in-id='…' extension-url='…' instance-id='…'>`, an `<encodings>` block of `<custom custom-type-name='<manifest encoding id>' column='[ds].[<CI>]' encoding-id='{GUID}'/>` (this is how fields bind to the extension's encodings), and a top-level `<referenced-extension>` that embeds the manifest plus a `<referenced-view viewId='SheetName'/>`. All of it round-trips and renders, so an agent can install **and** data-bind an extension programmatically. Caveat: this placement vocabulary is **not** in the `.trex` — the `.trex` only declares the encoding contract — so obtain it by reading back a worksheet that already uses the extension (`get-workbook-xml` after one UI add). This is the "steal a reference" move applied to extension *placement*.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Say no (reset expectations) when a user wants a 3D/WebGL extension on a build without GPU/accelerated graphics.
+
+Recommended wording:
+
+> "This build can't give the extension a WebGL context, so a three.js-style 3D viz will render blank. I'll build the same thing in 2D (Canvas/SVG) so it actually shows — it'll look nearly identical and run anywhere."
+
+Offer this instead:
+
+- A 2D (d3-geo / Canvas) rendering of the same visual
+- An existing 2D-based Exchange extension (defer to "Choosing a Custom Viz Solution")
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Invalid `encoding-icon token`.** `token="detail"` (and other non-enum values) fail manifest parsing with "value 'detail' not in enumeration" (Error Code FD722608). Use tokens from a known-good `.trex` — confirmed valid: `size`, `color`, `letter-s`, `letter-t`.
+2. **Using WebGL (globe.gl / three.js).** Renders blank with "Error creating WebGL context" in the sandbox. Use 2D (d3-geo / Canvas).
+3. **`await initializeAsync()` before first render.** The handshake reloads the page, so the draw never happens and the viz is blank. Render first, init second.
+4. **Encoding field-order bugs.** Ordered, multi-field encodings (e.g., Globe Path's Source/Target each take latitude then longitude) break silently if you swap the order — points/arcs land at lng,lat instead of lat,lng (the marks "mirror" to the wrong hemisphere). Reading by `fieldName` in your own code sidesteps this.
+5. **Assuming the sandbox behaves like a browser.** CDN access and WebGL availability differ from a normal page; vendor assets locally and avoid WebGL.
+6. **No fallback data / no on-screen errors.** A blank viz with no message is undebuggable in the sandbox.
+7. **Expecting XML injection to bypass the trust prompt.** Installing a *never-trusted* local/network extension via `apply-workbook` still raises Tableau's one-time security/trust dialog on first load — confirmed with a brand-new extension id (cold test). Everything else automates; the first-trust click is a human gate by design. Plan for one approval, not zero.
+
+## Implementation
+
+Two-file recipe for a local viz extension:
+
+1. **The web app** (`viz.html` + vendored libs): renders the viz in 2D and (optionally) reads live data.
+2. **The manifest** (`.trex`): declares the extension and points `source-location` at the local URL.
+
+Serve both over `http://localhost:PORT` and load via the extension dialog → **Access Local Viz Extensions** → pick the `.trex`. No Exchange registration is required.
+
+Minimal manifest (mirroring a known-good reference; note valid icon tokens):
+
+```xml
+<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
+<manifest manifest-version="0.1" xmlns="http://www.tableau.com/xml/extension_manifest">
+  <worksheet-extension id="com.local.mylviz" extension-version="0.1.0">
+    <default-locale>en_US</default-locale>
+    <name resource-id="name" />
+    <description>My local viz</description>
+    <author name="Dev" email="dev@example.com" organization="Dev" website="https://example.com" />
+    <min-api-version>1.11</min-api-version>
+    <source-location><url>http://localhost:8080/viz.html</url></source-location>
+    <icon />
+    <encoding id="latitude">
+      <display-name>Latitude</display-name>
+      <role-spec><role-type>continuous-measure</role-type></role-spec>
+      <fields max-count="1" />
+      <encoding-icon token="size" />
+    </encoding>
+  </worksheet-extension>
+  <resources>
+    <resource id="name"><text locale="en_US">My local viz</text></resource>
+  </resources>
+</manifest>
+```
+
+Render-first, init-second lifecycle (the fix for the blank viz):
+
+```javascript
+// 1) Draw immediately with a fallback so the page reload during the
+//    extension handshake can never leave the viz blank.
+try { render(FALLBACK); } catch (e) { showOnScreenError(e); }
+
+// 2) Handshake separately; upgrade to live data once it resolves.
+tableau.extensions.initializeAsync().then(async () => {
+  const ws = tableau.extensions.worksheetContent.worksheet;
+  const reader = await ws.getSummaryDataReaderAsync();
+  const dt = await reader.getAllPagesAsync();
+  await reader.releaseAsync();
+  render(mapColumnsByFieldName(dt));            // match /lat/, /lon|lng/, /city|name/
+  ws.addEventListener(tableau.TableauEventType.SummaryDataChanged, refresh);
+}).catch(showOnScreenError);
+```
+
+Reference-driven debugging loop (how the office-globe extension was fixed):
+
+1. Manifest won't parse → open a working `.trex` (Globe Path), copy its valid `encoding-icon` tokens.
+2. Loads but black → add an on-screen error element; it reported "Error creating WebGL context."
+3. Confirm the cause → fetch the working extension's HTML; Globe Path renders into `<svg>` (d3-geo), proving 2D is the path.
+4. Rewrite the renderer in 2D (d3-geo orthographic on canvas) → globe renders in the sandbox.
+5. Check the local server access log to confirm which assets the sandbox actually requested when isolating render-order vs network issues.
+
+API-authoring the placement (confirmed via `apply-workbook`, zero UI clicks except first-time trust):
+
+```xml
+<!-- inside the worksheet's <pane> -->
+<mark class='VizExtension' />
+<add-in add-in-id='com.local.myviz' extension-url='http://localhost:8080/viz.html'
+        extension-version='0.1.0' instance-id='A1B2C3D4E5F6...'>
+  <instance-settings />
+  <type-settings><worksheet /></type-settings>
+</add-in>
+<encodings>
+  <custom column='[federated.xxxx].[avg:Latitude:qk]'  custom-type-name='latitude'  encoding-id='{GUID-1}' />
+  <custom column='[federated.xxxx].[avg:Longitude:qk]' custom-type-name='longitude' encoding-id='{GUID-2}' />
+  <custom column='[federated.xxxx].[none:City:nk]'     custom-type-name='label'     encoding-id='{GUID-3}' />
+</encodings>
+```
+
+Plus a top-level `<referenced-extensions><referenced-extension>` embedding the same manifest as the `.trex` and `<referenced-view instances='1' viewId='<sheet>'/>`. `custom-type-name` must equal the manifest's `<encoding id>`. Confirmed: a from-blank worksheet wired this way renders and reads live data; a never-seen extension id installs the same way, gated only by the one-time trust dialog.

+# Cross-Sheet Filter Authoring in Workbook XML
+
+Enforced-by: categorical-filter-slices
+
+Use this when an agent needs one filter control to affect multiple worksheets, especially in dashboards where a data-source-scoped filter must survive workbook-level apply.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Cross-sheet filters require correct filter-group synchronization, slices nodes, and namespace handling, all essential for dashboard-wide filter controls that survive round-trip.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: cross-sheet-filter, dashboard-wide-filter, filter-group, categorical-filter-slices, shared-filter, user-namespace, filter-column-format, column-instance-slices, groupfilter-level-members
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "filter apply to all worksheets", "Region controls all dashboard charts", "shared filter across sheets", "filter disappears after round-trip missing slices", "user:ui-marker enumerate user:ui-enumeration all", "filter column double-bracket raw field form", "filter-group integer synchronize worksheets", "xmlns:user namespace binding categorical filter"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when a Tableau authoring task asks for a dashboard-wide or cross-sheet filter such as "Region controls all charts", "make this filter apply to all worksheets", or "share this Top N / categorical filter across dashboard sheets."
+
+This is narrower than ordinary worksheet filtering. For a single worksheet, use `tactics/viz/filters.md`. For cross-sheet filters, author every target worksheet consistently: the same field dependency, the same `filter-group`, and the same `slices` entry must appear in each target sheet's `view`.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Author per worksheet, then use a shared `filter-group`.** Do not rely on the dashboard node alone; each responding worksheet needs its own filter node.
+- **Preserve the `user:` namespace on filter attributes.** Categorical enumerate filters use attributes such as `user:ui-marker` and `user:ui-enumeration`; if a worksheet fragment uses those attributes, the root XML submitted to Tableau must bind `xmlns:user`.
+- **Always include `<slices>`.** Missing slices are the common reason a categorical filter appears in the proposed XML but disappears after Tableau round-trips the workbook.
+- **Use both column formats in the right places.** `filter column` uses the raw/double-bracket field form (`[DS].[[Region]]`) for many categorical filters; nested `groupfilter level` and `slices` often use the column-instance form (`[DS].[none:Region:nk]`).
+- **Verify after apply.** Re-read the workbook or target worksheet and confirm both `filter` and `slices` survived. A successful apply response is not enough.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **Only adding the filter to one worksheet.** The visible quick filter may control that one worksheet but not the other dashboard sheets.
+- **Putting the filter only in dashboard XML.** Dashboard zones can display sheets; they do not define the filter logic for each sheet.
+- **Omitting `slices`.** Tableau may silently strip categorical filters on load when the `slices` node does not list the filtered column-instance.
+- **Submitting `user:` attributes without a namespace binding.** Worksheet-level apply can reject fragments when `user:` attributes are present but `xmlns:user` is absent on the submitted root.
+- **Using a different `filter-group` per worksheet.** Filters synchronize only when all target worksheets share the same integer.
+
+## Implementation
+
+Confirmed working shape for a Region filter shared across two worksheets:
+
+```xml
+<view>
+  <datasources>
+    <datasource name="Sample - Superstore" caption="Sample - Superstore" />
+  </datasources>
+  <datasource-dependencies datasource="Sample - Superstore">
+    <column name="[Region]" role="dimension" type="nominal" datatype="string" />
+    <column-instance name="[none:Region:nk]" column="[Region]" derivation="None" pivot="key" type="nominal" />
+  </datasource-dependencies>
+  <filter column="[Sample - Superstore].[[Region]]"
+          class="categorical"
+          filter-group="7">
+    <groupfilter user:ui-marker="enumerate"
+                 user:ui-enumeration="all"
+                 function="level-members"
+                 level="[none:Region:nk]" />
+  </filter>
+  <slices>
+    <column>[Sample - Superstore].[none:Region:nk]</column>
+  </slices>
+  <aggregation value="true" />
+</view>
+```
+
+Repeat the same filter structure in every worksheet that should respond, keeping `filter-group="7"` and the slice column consistent. Choose a group id that is not already used by unrelated filters in those worksheets.
+
+If applying worksheet XML directly and `user:` attributes appear anywhere in the fragment, submit a root with a namespace binding:
+
+```xml
+<worksheet name="Sales by Region"
+           xmlns:user="http://www.tableausoftware.com/xml/user">
+  <!-- table/view/filter omitted -->
+</worksheet>
+```
+
+What does **not** work:
+
+```xml
+<filter column="[Sample - Superstore].[none:Region:nk]" class="categorical" filter-group="7">
+  <groupfilter function="level-members" level="[none:Region:nk]" />
+</filter>
+```
+
+That omits `slices` and uses column-instance format in `filter column`. It can appear plausible in generated XML but fail to survive Tableau's round-trip. A warning from `categorical-filter-slices` should be treated as a prompt to add the missing slice before trusting the apply.

+# Tableau Encoding Inference Patterns
+
+What Tableau actually writes to XML when a user adds an encoding via the GUI — and what it does NOT write. Use this to understand the gap between a user gesture and the resulting XML delta, and to know which things must be written explicitly vs. which are handled at runtime.
+
+All patterns confirmed empirically via XML injection + round-trip inspection + screenshot (2026-06-25).
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, validate, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Empirically confirmed Tableau XML patterns that directly govern how agents correctly author worksheet XML.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: encoding, inference, runtime, xml, side-effects, mark-labels-show, round-trip, color, size, text, lod, style-rule, automatic
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "labels not showing despite text encoding", "what XML changes when I add color", "does Tableau write style rules for encodings", "adding encoding produces no side effects", "mark-labels-show not auto-inserted", "color legend not in XML", "size legend missing from XML", "why are my labels invisible", "encoding round-trip behavior", "Tableau inference state machine"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this module when you need to:
+- **Understand what XML delta a user gesture produces** — e.g. "user added a color encoding, what changed in the XML?"
+- **Know what to write explicitly** vs. what Tableau infers at render time
+- **Debug why labels aren't showing** despite a `<text>` encoding being present
+- **Determine whether a field you added produced side effects** that the agent needs to account for
+- **Confirm that adding an encoding is safe** without risk of overwriting inferred state
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Encoding additions produce zero XML side effects.** Adding `color`, `size`, `text`, or `lod` to `pane > encodings` results in no other XML changes — no style-rules inserted, no breakdown changes, no column-instance additions beyond what you write. Tableau's inference state machine is entirely runtime.
+- **`mark-labels-show` must be written explicitly.** Adding a `<text>` encoding does NOT activate label display. Write `mark-labels-show="true"` in `pane > style > style-rule[element=mark]` explicitly, or labels will be invisible.
+- **When reading a user's workbook changes, the XML delta is minimal.** Only the `<encoding>` element and its column-instance appear. There are no bundled side-effects to parse or preserve.
+- **An agent can safely overwrite a worksheet** after a user adds an encoding without risk of losing inferred state — there is none.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Expecting `mark-labels-show` to be auto-inserted when a text encoding is added**: It is not. Tableau does not write this back to XML. The label visibility flag must be set explicitly in the agent's XML write.
+2. **Expecting side-effect style-rules after adding color or size**: None appear. No legend XML, no style modifications.
+3. **Assuming the size legend node in screenshots is backed by XML**: The size legend (e.g. the grand-total bar on a Pie chart) is a pure runtime rendering artifact. Nothing is written to XML for it.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Encoding round-trip behavior: confirmed zero side effects
+
+| Encoding added | Action | Expected side effects | Actual XML changes |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `<color>` (dimension) | Color legend appears, bars colored | Legend node written? Style rules added? | **None — zero XML side effects** |
+| `<size>` (measure) | Size legend appears | Size legend written? Breakdown changed? | **None — zero XML side effects** |
+| `<text>` (dimension/measure) | Labels... not visible | `mark-labels-show` inserted? | **None — labels invisible without explicit write** |
+| `<lod>` (dimension) | Detail level changes | CI additions? View changes? | **None — zero XML side effects** |
+| `class="Bar"` (explicit) | Visually identical to Automatic | Style differences? | **None — fully interchangeable with `Automatic`** |
+
+### Enabling mark labels (required explicit write)
+
+Adding a `<text>` encoding alone is not sufficient to show labels. Both the encoding AND a style node must be present:
+
+```xml
+<pane>
+  <mark class="Automatic"/>
+  <encodings>
+    <text column="[Sample - Superstore].[none:Category:nk]"/>
+  </encodings>
+  <style>
+    <style-rule element="mark">
+      <format attr="mark-labels-show" value="true"/>
+      <format attr="mark-labels-cull" value="true"/>
+    </style-rule>
+  </style>
+</pane>
+```
+
+Without `mark-labels-show="true"`, the text encoding is accepted, round-trips cleanly, but labels are not rendered.
+
+### What Tableau DOES infer at runtime (not in XML)
+
+These are render-time behaviors that do NOT appear in the workbook XML:
+
+- **Color legend** — appears when a `<color>` encoding is present; no XML node
+- **Size legend** — appears when a `<size>` encoding is present; no XML node
+- **Pie grand-total size legend bar** — shows e.g. "2,326,534"; no XML node
+- **Automatic chart type resolution** — `class="Automatic"` with measure/dimension shelves → bar; with two measures → scatter. Resolved at render, not stored in XML.
+- **Caption text** — e.g. "Details are shown for Category" when a `<lod>` encoding is added; no XML node
+
+### What must be written explicitly (not inferred)
+
+| Desired behavior | What to write |
+|---|---|
+| Show mark labels | `<format attr="mark-labels-show" value="true"/>` in `pane > style > style-rule[element=mark]` |
+| Label culling (hide overlapping) | `<format attr="mark-labels-cull" value="true"/>` alongside `mark-labels-show` |
+| Specific label mode | `<format attr="mark-labels-mode" value="line-ends"/>` etc. — see `marks-and-encodings.md` |
+| Treemap tile sizing | `<style-rule element="size-bar"><format attr="size" value="0.5"/></style-rule>` at table `<style>` level |
+| Treemap layout | `<breakdown value="on"/>` inside `<pane> > <view>` |
+
+### `datasource-dependencies` CI ordering is normalized on round-trip
+
+Tableau reorders `column-instance` elements inside `datasource-dependencies` alphabetically by CI name on round-trip. The order you submit is not preserved. This is cosmetic and has no functional effect, but do not rely on submission order when reading back.
+
+### Column metadata is corrected on round-trip to match datasource knowledge
+
+If the `<column>` attributes you submit (`datatype`, `type`, `semantic-role`) don't match what the datasource actually knows about that field, Tableau silently corrects them. Examples observed:
+
+- `[Postal Code]` submitted as `datatype="integer" type="ordinal"` → corrected to `datatype="string" type="nominal"` with `semantic-role="[ZipCode].[Name]"` injected
+- `[Returned]` submitted as `datatype="boolean"` → corrected to `datatype="string"`
+
+**Implication:** always use the field's actual datasource metadata in column defs. Use `list-available-fields` to get correct `datatype` and `type` values rather than guessing. Submitting wrong metadata is safe (Tableau corrects it), but the round-tripped XML will differ from what you submitted.
+
+### Simple-id uuid is always overwritten
+
+Every `apply-worksheet` call replaces the `<simple-id uuid="..."/>` in the submitted XML with the persistent workbook identity UUID. The value submitted is ignored. Do not generate or rely on custom UUIDs in this node.

+# Vibe-Coding a Bundled Tableau Extension (End-to-End)
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: an agent or SE vibe-coding a NEW bundled extension from scratch and taking it all the way to loaded-in-Desktop
+- Authoring outcome improved: go scaffold → working web app → packaged `.tpkg` → loaded, without stalling on "what API call reads the data" or "how do I get this into Desktop"
+- In-scope reason: stitches the format entry, the render/lifecycle entry, and the scaffold tool into one runnable path, and honestly separates evidenced install steps from unconfirmed ones
+- Out-of-scope risk: NOT signing/Exchange publishing; NOT a guarantee about the product "Install Tableau Agent" distribution channel (that is evidence about the agent bundle, not your personal extension)
+- Tags: vibe-code extension, dashboard extension, initializeAsync, dashboardContent, getSummaryDataAsync, worksheetContent, getSummaryDataReaderAsync, FilterChanged, MarkSelectionChanged, fallback render, zip tpkg, Access Local Extensions, trust dialog, Install Tableau Agent, Artifactory versioned dir, tpkg install flow, workspace extension initialize, artifactory bundle manifest, InitializeWorkspaceAsync
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "build a tableau dashboard extension end to end", "how do I read worksheet data in a dashboard extension", "dashboardContent dashboard worksheets getSummaryDataAsync", "extension event listener refresh on filter change", "package extension into tpkg and install", "how do users install a vibe-coded extension", "Access Local Extensions trust prompt", "does Help Install Tableau Agent install my extension", "tpkg install flow artifactory", "artifactory bundle manifest versioned dir", "workspace extension initialize InitializeWorkspaceAsync", "is there an InitializeWorkspaceAsync call"
+
+Enforcement: judgment-only
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this as the **spine** when building a bundled extension from nothing. It routes to the two reference entries at each step and fills the glue: the concrete Extensions-API calls a dashboard extension actually uses, the one-line package command, and what is (and isn't) known about getting the bundle into Desktop.
+
+Reach here when you are: scaffolding a new extension, wiring `main.js` to read live worksheet data, or deciding how the finished `.tpkg` reaches a user.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Scaffold, don't hand-type the tree.** Run `evals/tools/make-extension-scaffold.mjs` (offline; mirrors the worked `attrition-kpi` shape) or the tpkg-skill `create-tpkg.js`, then edit `content/<slug>/{index.html,main.js}`. Bundle-shape rules live in `expertise://tableau/tactics/viz/tpkg-bundle-anatomy`.
+- **Pick the API surface by extension type.** A **dashboard** extension reads `tableau.extensions.dashboardContent.dashboard.worksheets` and pulls data with `worksheet.getSummaryDataAsync(opts)`. A **viz/worksheet** extension reads `tableau.extensions.worksheetContent.worksheet` and pulls with `getSummaryDataReaderAsync().getAllPagesAsync()` (see `expertise://tableau/tactics/viz/building-viz-extensions`). Using the wrong content root is the most common blank-extension cause.
+- **Config/secrets ride `initializeAsync` + the Settings API — there is NO `InitializeWorkspaceAsync`.** No new workspace-init entry point was added; secrets and configuration ride the existing `initializeAsync()` + Settings API (Lee, 2026-06-30). Workspace extensions are becoming a first-class Extensions-API concept, but the interim guidance is to use the Dashboard Extensions API as a prop. **Kept alongside, dated:** Kyler's V0 bundle ships an **untested** `tableau.extensions.1.latest.js` that still contains an `initializeWorkspaceAsync` stub (Kyler, 2026-06-29) — treat that stub as unverified scaffolding, not a sanctioned API to call.
+- **Bundled viz/dashboard extensions vs bundled workspace extensions — the latter is Desktop-only in V1.** Bundled **viz** and **dashboard** extensions are the cross-surface path (and the only two that embed into `.twbx`); a bundled **workspace** extension is the Desktop-only V1 surface (W49 digest, 2026-07-06). Choose the type before scaffolding — it fixes the root element, the load surface, and whether it can travel in a workbook.
+- **Guard for "no Tableau host" and render a fallback.** Check `typeof tableau === 'undefined' || !tableau.extensions` and paint sample data so the extension is never empty during dev or a demo.
+- **Match data columns by `fieldName`, not position.** Drop order and column count vary; find your column by name so re-binding doesn't silently break.
+- **Subscribe to change events so the extension is live.** Add listeners for `tableau.TableauEventType.FilterChanged` and `MarkSelectionChanged` (dashboard: on each worksheet) and re-read on fire.
+- **Surface init/read errors on-screen.** The sandbox has no visible console; a small error `<div>` turns a black box into a readable failure.
+- **Plan for exactly one trust click.** Installing a never-before-trusted local extension raises Tableau's one-time security/trust dialog on first load — this is a human gate by design, confirmed field-tested for viz extensions.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Reading `worksheetContent` from a dashboard extension** (or vice-versa) → the content root is undefined → blank.
+2. **Awaiting `initializeAsync()` before the first paint** → the handshake reload leaves the viz blank; render a fallback first, upgrade after init resolves.
+3. **Positional column reads** → break when field/drop order changes; map by `fieldName`.
+4. **Assuming "Install Tableau Agent" installs your extension.** The evidenced Help ▸ Install Tableau Agent / Artifactory flow is the *product agent bundle* installer, not a confirmed channel for an arbitrary user `.tpkg` (see Install path + GAPS).
+5. **Re-zipping the wrong root** → the zip must contain `manifest.json`, `extensions/`, and `content/` at its top level, not a nested folder.
+6. **Calling/awaiting a `InitializeWorkspaceAsync`** → there is no such API; workspace config rides `initializeAsync()` + the Settings API (Lee, 2026-06-30). The `initializeWorkspaceAsync` stub in Kyler's V0 bundle is untested scaffolding (Kyler, 2026-06-29), not a call to rely on.
+
+## Implementation
+
+**Step 1 — Scaffold.**
+
+```bash
+node evals/tools/make-extension-scaffold.mjs com.example.my-ext "My Extension" --type dashboard --out ./build-ext
+```
+
+Emits `my-ext/{manifest.json, extensions/my-ext.trex, content/my-ext/{index.html, main.js, tableau.extensions.1.latest.js}}`. The SDK file is a labelled placeholder — vendor the real library before loading.
+
+**Step 2 — Extension API basics (the patterns actually used in the worked `main.js`).** A dashboard extension that reads the first worksheet's summary data and stays live:
+
+```javascript
+// Guard: outside a Tableau host, render sample data and stop.
+if (typeof tableau === 'undefined' || !tableau.extensions) { render(FALLBACK); return; }
+
+tableau.extensions.initializeAsync().then(async function () {
+  const dashboard = tableau.extensions.dashboardContent.dashboard;   // dashboard root
+  const ws = dashboard.worksheets[0];
+  const opts = { maxRows: 5000, ignoreSelection: true, includeAllColumns: false };
+  const data = await ws.getSummaryDataAsync(opts);                   // {columns, data}
+  const cols = data.columns.map(c => (c.fieldName || '').toLowerCase());
+  const i = cols.findIndex(n => n.includes('rate'));                 // match by NAME
+  // ... reduce data.data rows (row[i].value) into your metric ...
+  render(metric);
+  for (const w of dashboard.worksheets) {                            // stay live
+    w.addEventListener(tableau.TableauEventType.FilterChanged, refresh);
+    w.addEventListener(tableau.TableauEventType.MarkSelectionChanged, refresh);
+  }
+}, function (err) { showErr('Init failed: ' + err); render(FALLBACK); });
+```
+
+(A viz/worksheet extension replaces the middle with `tableau.extensions.worksheetContent.worksheet.getSummaryDataReaderAsync()` → `getAllPagesAsync()` → `releaseAsync()`; see the viz-extensions entry.)
+
+**Step 3 — Package.** From the package dir:
+
+```bash
+cd my-ext
+zip -r ../my-ext-1.0.0.tpkg manifest.json extensions/ content/
+```
+
+Naming: `<slug>-<version>.tpkg`. Confirm the zip's top level is `manifest.json` + `extensions/` + `content/` (not a wrapping folder).
+
+**Step 4 — Install (evidence-marked — do not overstate).**
+
+- **Local side-load (evidenced, field-tested for viz extensions):** load the `.trex` through the in-product dialog and accept the **one-time trust prompt**. For viz extensions the path is the Marks card ▸ *Access Local Viz Extensions*; for a **dashboard** extension the analogous path is the *Extension* dashboard object ▸ *Access Local Extensions* — the dashboard-object wording is inferred from product convention here, **not** field-verified in the anchors → see GAPS.
+- **Programmatic placement (evidenced for viz extensions):** the whole wiring (`<mark class='VizExtension'/>`, `<add-in …>`, `<encodings><custom …>`, top-level `<referenced-extension>`) round-trips through `apply-workbook`, gated only by the first-load trust dialog. Details in `expertise://tableau/tactics/viz/building-viz-extensions`.
+- **Product agent-bundle install/update flow (evidenced only for the agent bundle, NOT for your `.tpkg`):** the **Help ▸ Install Tableau Agent** flow, per the W49 Slack digest (2026-07-06):
+  - **Three independently-versioned artifacts** — Desktop / TabMCP / SouthardBox.tpkg (Will, 2026-06-04); the **Brains package** is versioned separately again (Will, 2026-06-22).
+  - **CI publishes the bundle + its manifest to Artifactory** (MR13, 2026-06-30).
+  - **A stable manifest can't be overwritten** in Artifactory, so install uses a **versioned directory** with **C++-side latest-resolution** (MR15).
+  - **Manifest format v2 "doesn't bundle MCP"** (MR16) — i.e. MCP is not bundled by default.
+  - **Executable-bit gotcha:** a fix was required so the published bundle preserved the file executable bit (MR17). MR15–MR17 all merged **2026-07-02**.
+  Treat this as evidence about the *Tableau Agent product bundle*, **not** a confirmed distribution channel for an arbitrary vibe-coded user extension. What it means for user `.tpkg` distribution / auto-update is an open question → see Open questions below and GAPS.
+
+## Open questions (as of 2026-07-06)
+
+The distribution/trust half of "get my `.tpkg` to a user" is **not** settled. These are the load-bearing unknowns from the W49 Slack digest (2026-07-06) — readers must not mistake the evidenced agent-bundle flow above for a decided user-extension story:
+
+- **Auto-update UX for a user extension** — owners **Blake / Britta**. Kyler's 2026-07-03 and 2026-07-06 questions on the auto-update posture are still unanswered; Britta's stated preference is fully-automatic (no user choice), but the posture for a user's bundled extension is undecided.
+- **Signing / sandboxing model for a `.tpkg`** — owners **Lee / Kyler**. *This is an explicit evidence gap: no design thread exists.* Whether distributable bundles get signed, whether signing removes the one-time trust prompt, and where the sandbox boundary sits are all open (also GAPS P0-2).
+- **Private-marketplace "smuggling" risk** — owner **Lee**, unresolved. Whether a private/side-channel marketplace could smuggle bundled extensions past governance is a raised-but-open risk.
+- **Permissions-dialog terminology** — tracked in GUS **W-22973316**. The exact wording/semantics of the permissions/consent dialog shown at load is still being settled.
+
+## Related Knowledge

+## Source and Confidence
+
+- Source/evidence type: artifact-derived (the worked `attrition-kpi` `main.js`/`index.html` for the dashboard API + lifecycle patterns; `create-tpkg.js` and the tpkg-skill for scaffold/package) + field-tested viz-extension install behavior (via the viz-extensions entry) + the W49 Slack digest (2026-07-06), treated as evidence-not-instruction, for the agent-bundle install/update flow, the `initializeAsync`/no-`InitializeWorkspaceAsync` decision, and the open questions.
+- Provenance of the tpkg-skill / `create-tpkg.js` anchor: **Kyler's `tableau-package` Claude skill** (scaffolds a `.tpkg` and iterates its `html`/`js`; shared in proj-tab-tableau-studio, 2026-06-25). <!-- @drift-allowed: tableau-package is a Claude skill name, not an MCP tool -->
+- Citation form: Slack facts are attributed inline as author + date (and MR#, e.g. MR13/MR15–MR17 merged 2026-07-02); the underlying permalinks live in the session transcript, not the digest.
+- Customer-identifying details removed: yes
+- Confidence: mixed — API/lifecycle/package steps are artifact/field evidenced; the `initializeAsync` decision + agent-bundle flow are Slack-evidenced; the user-`.tpkg` install/signing/auto-update channel is explicitly UNCONFIRMED and routed to Open questions + GAPS

+# Workbook XML: Filters
+
+Enforced-by: categorical-filter-slices, categorical-filter-proliferation
+
+Filter patterns for all worksheet filter types in Tableau workbook XML. Each rule below is adjudicated against **real Tableau serializations** — Desktop's own oracle `.twb` saves, the shipped `data/data-visualization-templates-xml/*.xml` templates, and the graded w44 golden `.twb` saves (kept outside the repo in the `W44_GOLDENS_DIR` evidence store). Two rules earlier prose had inverted — **boolean casing** and **filter `column` format** — are corrected here (see the 2026-07-06 evidence audit; aligns with SE PR #167). Behavioral "silently fails / stripped / causes errors" claims are demoted to **unverified — needs live probe** (see the last section); do not restate them as fact until confirmed on the apply path.
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Filters are a core authoring operation requiring the correct filter column format (column-instance form), `slices` nodes, enumeration semantics, sort/filter ordering, and filter-class-specific syntax.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: filter, categorical, groupfilter, slices, date-filter, top-n, cross-sheet-filter, filter-group, measure-names-filter, context-filter, quantitative-filter, continuous-date-range, boolean-filter
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how do I filter a dimension to specific values", "add a Top N filter that survives round-trip", "create a cross-sheet filter across multiple worksheets", "filter on Measure Names to control crosstab measures", "date range filter syntax", "filter column format is wrong", "slices node required for filters", "Boolean filter values must be capitalized", "filter-group for synchronized filters", "context filter syntax"
+
+## Filter placement in view
+
+Filters live in `view` as siblings of `datasource-dependencies` and `aggregation`. A `slices` node listing all filtered column-instances is co-present in every serialization (`gantt-chart.xml:33-48`, dep → filter → slices → aggregation).
+
+```
+view
+  datasources
+  datasource-dependencies   ← column defs + CIs for filtered fields
+  filter                    ← one per filtered field
+  computed-sort / shelf-sorts   ← sorts and filters BOTH precede <slices>; Desktop often writes sorts AFTER filters
+  slices                    ← lists all filtered column-instances
+  aggregation
+```
+
+Column defs + column-instances for filtered fields appear in `datasource-dependencies` even when the field is not on rows/cols/encodings (always co-present in goldens; the "else fails" branch is untestable offline — see probe P5).
+
+**Sort/filter ordering (corrected).** There is **no** "sort must precede filters" rule. The only ordering invariant the corpus supports is that sort nodes (`computed-sort`, `shelf-sorts`, `natural-sort`, `manual-sort`) **and** `<filter>` nodes both precede `<slices>` and `<aggregation>`. Desktop routinely places sorts **after** filters and even interleaves them:
+
+```
+</filter>
+<shelf-sorts>          ← superbowl-live-styled2.twb:489 (shelf-sort immediately after a filter)
+  <shelf-sort-v2 .../>
+</shelf-sorts>
+```
+
+`waterfall-src.twb:38818-38821` alternates `filter` → `computed-sort`; `ww-ou-diff.xml:54-66` is filter → filter → `shelf-sorts` → `slices`. (Whether a sort placed *after* `<slices>` errors is unverified — probe P2.)
+
+---
+
+## Enumeration semantics
+
+The outer `function` + `user:ui-enumeration` on the top groupfilter encodes intent:
+
+| Intent | Outer `function` | `user:ui-enumeration` | Shape | Evidence |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| Include listed members | `union` (children `member`) or a single `member` | `inclusive` | list the members to keep | `waterfall-src.twb:38819`, `slope-oracle.twb:462` |
+| Exclude listed members | `except` | `exclusive` | `level-members` + a `union` of members to drop | `waterfall-src.twb:31289`, `ww-ou-diff.xml:55` |
+| All members (interactive control) | `level-members` | `all` | single node, no `member` children | `gantt-chart.xml:35` |
+
+---
+
+## Categorical filter (include specific values)
+
+```xml
+<filter column="[Sample - Superstore].[none:Segment:nk]" class="categorical">
+  <groupfilter function="union"
+               user:ui-domain="relevant"
+               user:ui-enumeration="inclusive"
+               user:ui-marker="enumerate">
+    <groupfilter function="member" level="[none:Segment:nk]" member="Consumer" />
+    <groupfilter function="member" level="[none:Segment:nk]" member="Corporate" />
+  </groupfilter>
+</filter>
+```
+
+**Format notes (corrected against disk):**
+- `filter column` uses **column-instance (CI) format**: `[DS].[none:Segment:nk]` — the form Desktop serializes (`slope-oracle.twb:461`) and the repo ships (`gantt-chart.xml:34`). It is **not** double-bracket `[DS].[[Segment]]` (see "Filter column format" below).
+- Outer `user:ui-enumeration` for an include is `"inclusive"` (not `"exclusive"`). `exclusive` is reserved for `function="except"` excludes (`waterfall-src.twb:31289`).
+- `groupfilter level` uses CI format **without** the DS prefix: `[none:Segment:nk]` — not `[DS].[none:Segment:nk]`, not raw `[Segment]` (`gantt-chart.xml:35`).
+
+### Exclude specific values
+
+```xml
+<filter column="[Sample - Superstore].[none:Segment:nk]" class="categorical">
+  <groupfilter function="except"
+               user:ui-domain="relevant"
+               user:ui-enumeration="exclusive"
+               user:ui-marker="enumerate">
+    <groupfilter function="level-members" level="[none:Segment:nk]" />
+    <groupfilter function="union">
+      <groupfilter function="member" level="[none:Segment:nk]" member="Home Office" />
+    </groupfilter>
+  </groupfilter>
+</filter>
+```
+
+Structure matches `ww-ou-diff.xml:55-61` (`except` wraps `level-members` + a `union` of the members to drop).
+
+---
+
+## Single-value categorical filter (e.g. Year = 2024)
+
+```xml
+<filter column="[Sample - Superstore].[yr:Order Date:ok]" class="categorical">
+  <groupfilter user:ui-marker="enumerate"
+               user:ui-domain="database"
+               function="member"
+               user:ui-enumeration="inclusive"
+               member="2024"
+               level="[yr:Order Date:ok]" />
+</filter>
+```
+
+- `member` — the filter value as string (`"2024"`, `"4"` for quarter, `"Consumer"` for a dimension)
+- `level` — the column-instance name (without DS prefix)
+
+---
+
+## Boolean field filter
+
+Boolean members serialize **lowercase**: `member="true"` / `member="false"`. (Earlier prose had this backwards.)
+
+```xml
+<filter column="[Sample - Superstore].[usr:Calculation_9000000000000000028:nk]" class="categorical">
+  <groupfilter function="member"
+               level="[usr:Calculation_9000000000000000028:nk]"
+               member="true"
+               user:ui-domain="relevant"
+               user:ui-enumeration="inclusive"
+               user:ui-marker="enumerate" />
+</filter>
+```
+
+This is `slope-oracle.twb:461-462` (Desktop's own save). A corpus-wide grep for `member=` boolean values returned **only** `true` (11 files, zero capitalized, zero `false`). Use lowercase; do not capitalize. Aligns with SE PR #167.
+
+---
+
+## Date filter column-instance naming
+
+| Tableau filter | Column-instance name | derivation | type |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Year | `[yr:Order Date:ok]` | `Year` | `ordinal` |
+| Quarter | `[qr:Order Date:ok]` | `Quarter` | `ordinal` |
+| Month | `[mn:Order Date:ok]` | `Month` | `ordinal` |
+| Week | `[wk:Order Date:ok]` | `Week` | `ordinal` |
+
+Confirmed on disk: `[yr:Order Date:ok]`, `[mn:Order Date:ok]`, `[qr:Date:ok]` all appear in `waterfall-src.twb`.
+
+---
+
+## Continuous date range filter
+
+```xml
+<filter column="[Sample - Superstore].[none:Order Date:qk]"
+        filter-group="4"
+        class="quantitative"
+        included-values="in-range">
+  <min>#2023-01-03#</min>
+  <max>#2026-12-30#</max>
+</filter>
+```
+
+Column-instance: derivation `None`, type `quantitative`, suffix `qk`. Date strings use `#YYYY-MM-DD#`. Confirmed: `waterfall-src.twb:32081` (`[none:Date:qk]` in-range), `:33437` (`[none:Year:qk]` in-range).
+
+---
+
+## Cross-sheet filter (`filter-group`)
+
+To make a filter on one worksheet also control other worksheets on the same dashboard, add the same filter to each target worksheet with the **same `filter-group` integer**. Tableau synchronizes filters sharing a `filter-group` across sheets (confirmed: identical `filter-group='13'` on the Chart Type filter across two sheets, `waterfall-src.twb:30266` and `:30377`).
+
+Use `function="level-members"` with `user:ui-enumeration="all"` for an "all members selected" interactive control:
+
+```xml
+<filter column="[Sample - Superstore].[none:Region:nk]"
+        filter-group="3"
+        class="categorical">
+  <groupfilter user:ui-marker="enumerate"
+               user:ui-enumeration="all"
+               level="[none:Region:nk]"
+               function="level-members" />
+</filter>
+```
+
+Steps:
+1. Add filter + `slices` + column def + CI to **every** worksheet that should respond
+2. Use the **same `filter-group` integer** on all of them
+3. Pick any integer not already in use in those worksheets
+4. No changes needed to the dashboard node
+
+---
+
+## Slices node
+
+A `slices` node listing every filtered column-instance is present in `view` in every serialization:
+
+```xml
+<slices>
+  <column>[Sample - Superstore].[yr:Order Date:ok]</column>
+  <column>[Sample - Superstore].[none:Region:nk]</column>
+</slices>
+```
+
+The repo's `categorical-filter-slices` rule warns (does not block) when a categorical filter has no matching `slices` column, noting Tableau **may** silently strip it on round-trip. Whether a missing `slices` node actually strips the filter is unverified offline (probe P1) — always include it.
+
+---
+
+## Filtering Measure Names (controlling which measures appear in a crosstab)
+
+To show only specific measures in a Measure Names/Values crosstab, add a categorical filter on `[:Measure Names]`:
+
+```xml
+<filter column="[Sample - Superstore].[:Measure Names]" class="categorical">
+  <groupfilter function="union" user:op="manual">
+    <groupfilter function="member"
+                 level="[:Measure Names]"
+                 member="&quot;[Sample - Superstore].[sum:Sales:qk]&quot;" />
+    <groupfilter function="member"
+                 level="[:Measure Names]"
+                 member="&quot;[Sample - Superstore].[sum:Profit:qk]&quot;" />
+  </groupfilter>
+</filter>
+```
+
+Confirmed on disk (`HUMAN-sets-correct.twb:3075-3079`):
+- `member` values are **double-quoted fully-qualified column-instance refs** (XML-escaped `&quot;...&quot;`)
+- `level` is `"[:Measure Names]"` (no DS prefix)
+- also requires a `slices` node with `[DS].[:Measure Names]`
+
+```xml
+<slices>
+  <column>[Sample - Superstore].[:Measure Names]</column>
+</slices>
+```
+
+Caveat: the outer `union` in the golden carries `user:op="manual"`, **not** the `user:ui-domain="relevant"` earlier prose asserted. Which one the apply path requires/normalizes is unverified offline (probe P6).
+
+---
+
+## Top N filter (native `function="end"` groupfilter)
+
+A Top N filter limits a dimension to its top N members by a measure, using nested groupfilters inside a categorical filter.
+
+```xml
+<filter class="categorical" column="[DS].[none:master_metadata_album_artist_name:nk]">
+  <groupfilter function="end"
+               end="top"
+               count="50"
+               user:ui-top-by-field="true"
+               units="records"
+               user:ui-marker="end">
+    <groupfilter function="order"
+                 direction="DESC"
+                 expression="SUM([ms_played])"
+                 user:ui-marker="order">
+      <groupfilter function="level-members"
+                   level="[none:master_metadata_album_artist_name:nk]"
+                   user:ui-enumeration="all"
+                   user:ui-marker="enumerate" />
+    </groupfilter>
+  </groupfilter>
+</filter>
+```
+
+Confirmed structure: `HUMAN-sets-correct.twb:2728-2730` (`function="end"` → nested `function="order"` → `function="level-members"` + `user:ui-enumeration="all"`). Also requires a `slices` node referencing the filtered CI.
+
+Key attrs:
+- `count` — N. Serialized as a **literal string** (`"50"`) or as a **parameter reference** (`count="[Parameters].[Parameter 3]"`, per `HUMAN-sets-correct.twb:2728`).
+- `end` — `"top"` (or `"bottom"`), paired with `direction`
+- `direction` — `"DESC"` (top) or `"ASC"` (bottom)
+- `expression` — the aggregation expression, e.g. `"SUM([ms_played])"`, `"SUM([Sales])"`
+- `level` — the column-instance name (without DS prefix)
+
+> **Note:** Use `function="end"`, not `function="filter"`. The `function="filter"` Top N form is unreliable; the `function="end"` pattern above is the confirmed approach.
+
+---
+
+## Context filter
+
+Context filters run in step 3 of Tableau's Order of Operations (before dimension filters). Add `context="true"` to the filter node; the `column` is CI format like any other filter:
+
+```xml
+<filter column="[Sample - Superstore].[yr:Order Date:ok]" class="categorical" context="true">
+  ...
+</filter>
+```
+
+Confirmed: `waterfall-src.twb:38841` — `context='true'` on a CI-format column (`[yr:Order Date:ok]`), not double-bracket. Context filters must precede any FIXED LOD expressions that need to be scoped by them.
+
+---
+
+## Filter column format
+
+The `column` attribute on a `<filter>` node uses **column-instance (CI) format**:
+
+- `[DS].[none:Field:nk]` (dimension), `[DS].[yr:Field:ok]` (date part), `[DS].[none:Field:qk]` (continuous), `[DS].[:Measure Names]`.
+
+This is what Desktop serializes (`slope-oracle.twb:461`, `gantt2-oracle.twb:459`) and what the repo's shipped apply-path templates use (`gantt-chart.xml:34,37,40`). The repo's validation rule states filter column formats **vary** ("raw field references, column-instance references, dates, `[:Measure Names]`, and Top-N patterns all show up", `categorical-filter-slices.ts:5-7`) and matches on the local field name, not a bracket shape.
+
+Double-bracket `[DS].[[Field]]` is **not** a filter column form. In Tableau XML the `[[…]]` shape appears only as a **table-object id**, e.g. `[__tableau_internal_object_id__].[[Orders_ECFCA1FB690A41FE803BC071773BA862]]]` (`gantt-workbook-cache.xml:413`). (Whether the apply pipeline *rejects* double-bracket filter input is the inverse question — unverified offline, probe P3.)
+
+---
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this module when you need to:
+- **Filter a worksheet to specific dimension values** (e.g. Region = "East", Segment in {Consumer, Corporate})
+- **Apply a date range filter** — either categorical (year/quarter/month) or continuous (date range)
+- **Create a Top N filter** that limits a dimension to its top N members by a measure
+- **Set up cross-sheet filters** that synchronize multiple worksheets on a dashboard
+- **Filter on Measure Names** to control which measures appear in a multi-measure crosstab
+- **Mark a filter as a context filter** so it runs before FIXED LOD calculations
+
+For table calculation filters (filtering based on a table calc like INDEX() <= 10), see `workbook-calcs.md`.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Filter `column` uses CI format** — `[DS].[none:Field:nk]` / `[DS].[yr:Field:ok]` / `[DS].[:Measure Names]` — the form Desktop emits and the repo ships (`gantt-chart.xml:34`; `slope-oracle.twb:461`). Double-bracket `[[Field]]` is a table-object id, not a filter column (`gantt-workbook-cache.xml:413`).
+- **Boolean members are lowercase** — `member="true"` / `member="false"` (`slope-oracle.twb:462`; zero capitalized in the corpus). Aligns with SE PR #167.
+- **Match enumeration to intent** — include: `function="union"`/`member` + `user:ui-enumeration="inclusive"`; exclude: `function="except"` + `user:ui-enumeration="exclusive"`; all-members control: `function="level-members"` + `user:ui-enumeration="all"` (`waterfall-src.twb:38819` / `:31289`; `gantt-chart.xml:35`).
+- **Order: sorts and filters both precede `<slices>`/`<aggregation>`** — there is no "sort before filters" rule; Desktop commonly writes sorts after/among filters (`superbowl-live-styled2.twb:489`; `waterfall-src.twb:38821`).
+- **Use `function="end"` for Top N** — not `function="filter"`; nest `function="order"` then `function="level-members"` + `user:ui-enumeration="all"` (`HUMAN-sets-correct.twb:2728-2730`).
+- **Add a `slices` node** listing every filtered CI — present in every serialization (`gantt-chart.xml:43-47`).
+- **Use the same `filter-group` integer** on all worksheets that should synchronize a cross-sheet filter (`waterfall-src.twb:30266`/`:30377`).
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Double-bracket filter column**: using `[DS].[[Region]]` for the `column` attr. Desktop and shipped templates use CI format `[DS].[none:Region:nk]`; double-bracket is a table-object id (`gantt-workbook-cache.xml:413`).
+2. **Capitalizing boolean members**: `"True"`/`"False"` do not appear on disk. Booleans serialize lowercase `"true"`/`"false"` (`slope-oracle.twb:462`).
+3. **Labeling an include with `ui-enumeration="exclusive"`**: includes use `inclusive`; `exclusive` is for `function="except"` excludes (`waterfall-src.twb:38819` vs `:31289`).
+4. **Assuming sorts must precede filters**: they need not — sorts and filters both precede `<slices>`, and Desktop writes sorts after filters (`superbowl-live-styled2.twb:489`).
+5. **Using `function="filter"` for Top N**: use `function="end"` with a nested `function="order"` child.
+6. **Wrong `groupfilter level` format**: use CI without the DS prefix — `[none:Segment:nk]`, not `[DS].[none:Segment:nk]`, not raw `[Segment]`.
+7. **Missing `filter-group` for cross-sheet sync**: filters synchronize only when they share the same `filter-group` integer.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+To add a categorical filter to a worksheet:
+
+1. **Get the datasource ID** from `list-available-fields` (e.g. `federated.0abc123`).
+2. **Add the column def + CI to `datasource-dependencies`** for the filtered field (if not already present).
+3. **Construct the filter node** using **CI format** for the `column` attr (`[DS].[none:Field:nk]`) and `[none:Field:nk]` for the `groupfilter level` attr; set enumeration to match intent (`inclusive` for include, `exclusive` for `except`).
+4. **Add or update the `slices` node** in `view` to reference the CI.
+5. **Order** sorts and filters before `<slices>`/`<aggregation>` (sorts may sit after or among filters).
+6. **Submit via `apply-workbook`** and inspect with `get-workbook-xml` to confirm the filter survived.
+
+For cross-sheet filters: repeat steps 1–5 for every worksheet that should respond, using the same `filter-group` integer. For context filters: add `context="true"` to the filter node.
+
+---
+
+## Unverified — needs live probe
+
+The following are behavioral/causal claims not observable in serialized XML alone. Treat as unconfirmed until settled by a live probe (author XML → `apply-workbook` → `get-workbook-xml` readback → diff; Superstore, one worksheet):
+
+- **P1** — Does a categorical filter with **no** `<slices>` get stripped on round-trip? (The `categorical-filter-slices` rule only warns.)
+- **P2** — Does a sort placed **after** `<slices>` load/round-trip or error? (No golden violates the slices boundary.)
+- **P3** — Does the apply path **reject** double-bracket `[DS].[[Field]]` filter input vs CI `[DS].[none:Field:nk]`? (Confirms the inverse of the corrected column-format rule.)
+- **P5** — Does a filtered field with **no** column def/CI in `datasource-dependencies` get stripped or error?
+- **P6** — Does the Measure Names outer `union` require/normalize `user:op="manual"` vs `user:ui-domain="relevant"`?
+
+---
+
+## Source and Confidence
+
+- Source/evidence type: field-tested + evidence-audited against real Tableau serializations
+- Source: Filter XML patterns adjudicated 2026-07-06 against Desktop oracle `.twb` saves, shipped `data-visualization-templates-xml/*` templates, and the graded w44 golden `.twb` saves (external `W44_GOLDENS_DIR` evidence store); inline citations name the strongest disk evidence per rule. Supersedes prior prose that had boolean casing and filter-column format inverted (aligns with SE PR #167). Customer-identifying details removed.
+- Customer-identifying details removed: yes
+- Confidence: field-tested for the serialization facts (column format, boolean casing, enumeration, sort/filter ordering, Top-N, date, cross-sheet, Measure Names, context). The behavioral "silently fails / stripped / errors / required" claims are **unverified** pending live apply probes P1–P6.

+# Tableau Mark Type Signatures
+
+Lookup table: XML shelf configuration → chart type (and reverse). Use this when reading a workbook to identify the chart type, or when writing a workbook to produce a given chart type. All patterns confirmed via XML injection + screenshot (2026-06-25).
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, validate, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Empirically confirmed Tableau XML patterns that directly govern how agents correctly author worksheet XML.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: mark-type, chart-type, automatic, bar, line, circle, pie, treemap, breakdown, scatter, text-table, rows, cols, encodings
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how do I identify a chart type from XML", "what XML creates a treemap", "treemap requires breakdown on", "Automatic vs Bar interchangeable", "Line must be set explicitly", "scatter plot with two measures", "what mark class for a pie chart", "treemap mapsources stripped on round-trip", "chart type signature table", "minimal XML for each chart type"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this module when you need to:
+- **Identify a chart type** from workbook XML — look up the mark class + shelf combination
+- **Write a new chart type** — get the minimal XML configuration required
+- **Debug a chart that isn't rendering as expected** — cross-reference against the confirmed patterns here
+- **Write a treemap** — the treemap has several non-obvious requirements (breakdown, mapsources, style-rule)
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **`Automatic` and `Bar` are interchangeable** for the standard dimension-on-cols / measure-on-rows layout. The round-tripped XML is structurally identical. Prefer `Automatic` unless you need to lock the mark type explicitly.
+- **Line must be set explicitly.** `class="Automatic"` will NOT resolve to a line chart even with a date on Cols. Always write `class="Line"`.
+- **Treemap requires `breakdown="on"`.** `breakdown="auto"` with size+text encodings renders a bar chart, not a treemap. Do NOT include `<mapsources>` or `<style-rule element="size-bar">` — both are stripped on round-trip and are not needed for correct rendering.
+- **Scatter with only two measures → single aggregate dot.** Add a `<lod>` dimension encoding to disaggregate to one mark per row.
+- **Pie size legend is runtime-only.** A grand-total size legend appears in screenshots but nothing is written to XML — don't attempt to reproduce it via XML.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Using `Automatic` for Line charts**: `Automatic` never resolves to Line via XML inference. Set `class="Line"` explicitly.
+2. **Treemap with `breakdown="auto"`**: Produces a bar chart. Treemap requires `breakdown="on"`.
+3. **Including `<mapsources>` in treemap**: `<mapsources>` is stripped on round-trip — Tableau does not preserve it in the worksheet XML. Treemaps render correctly without it (field-tested 2026-06-25).
+4. **Including the `size-bar` style-rule in submitted treemap XML**: The `<style-rule element="size-bar">` block is stripped on round-trip. Treemaps render without it; omit it from submitted XML.
+5. **Assuming column-instances are needed for encoding-only fields in treemaps**: Tableau strips column-instances for fields that appear only in `<encodings>` and not on `<rows>`/`<cols>`. This is expected behavior — the encoding reference itself is sufficient.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Mark type signature table
+
+| Chart type | `<mark class>` | `<rows>` | `<cols>` | Key encodings | `breakdown` |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| Vertical bar | `Automatic` | measure CI | dimension CI | none | `auto` |
+| Horizontal bar | `Automatic` | dimension CI | measure CI | none | `auto` |
+| Line chart | `Line` | measure CI | date or dimension CI | none | `auto` |
+| Scatter plot | `Circle` | measure CI | measure CI | none | `auto` |
+| Treemap | `Automatic` | empty | empty | `<size>` (measure) + `<text>` (dimension) | **`on`** |
+| Pie chart | `Pie` | empty | empty | `<size>` (measure) + `<color>` (dimension) | `auto` |
+| Text table | `Text` | dimension CI | empty | `<text>` (measure) | `auto` |
+
+**Reading direction (XML → chart type):** Check `<mark class>`, then `<rows>`/`<cols>` content, then `<encodings>`, then `breakdown` value.
+
+**Writing direction (chart type → XML):** Use the table above as the minimal required configuration.
+
+### Treemap XML pattern (confirmed working, field-tested 2026-06-25)
+
+Note: `<mapsources>` and `<style-rule element="size-bar">` are both stripped by Tableau on round-trip — do not include them.

+```
+
+Note: `mark-labels-show="true"` is required for the text values to be visible. See `encoding-inference-patterns.md` for details.
+
+### What does NOT work
+
+- `class="Automatic"` for line charts — resolves to bar, not line
+- `breakdown="auto"` for treemaps — renders a bar chart
+- `derivation="TruncYear"`, `derivation="TruncMonth"`, `derivation="TruncDay"`, `derivation="TruncQuarter"`, `derivation="TruncatedToYear"`, `derivation="TruncatedToMonth"`, `derivation="TruncatedDate"` — ALL silently rewritten to `derivation="None"`. Use `Year`, `Quarter`, `Month`, `Day` (same string for both discrete and continuous). CI prefixes: `yr:`, `qr:`, `mn:`, `dy:` for both `:ok` and `:qk` forms (field-tested 2026-06-25).
+- `<mapsources>` in treemap view — **stripped on round-trip** (field-tested 2026-06-25, session 92271). The treemap renders correctly without it; `mapsources` is not required despite earlier documentation.
+- `<style-rule element="size-bar">` at the table level — **stripped on round-trip** (field-tested 2026-06-25). The treemap renders without it; omit from submitted XML.

+# Workbook XML: Encodings and Mark Types
+
+Enforced-by: computed-sort-crash, redundant-color-encoding, tooltip-dimension-requires-attr
+
+Expert reference for all Tableau marks card encodings, mark types, label styling, color palettes, and chart-type-specific patterns (Gantt, map, aggregation, sorting). All patterns confirmed via `get-workbook-xml` observation after manual authoring.
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, refine, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Encodings map data fields to visual channels and mark types, covering correct placement in pane structure, label configuration, color palettes, dual-axis charts, sorting, and encoding-survival rules.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: encoding, color, size, text, lod, detail, mark-type, label-styling, color-palette, gantt, map, aggregation, sorting, dual-axis, mark-labels-show, mark-labels-mode, natural-sort, computed-sort-crash
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how do I add a color encoding", "enable mark labels on a worksheet", "set a custom color palette", "discrete-tier color for groups not gradient", "label styling and font color", "mark-labels-mode range for per-panel labels", "add a size encoding for Gantt duration", "dual-axis chart syntax", "computed-sort crash warning", "filled map choropleth pattern", "axis label text color"
+
+## Encoding placement (critical)
+
+All marks card encodings go inside an `<encodings>` element that is a **direct child of `<pane>`** — a sibling to `<view>` and `<mark>`, NOT nested inside the pane's `<view>` child. Encodings placed inside `<view>` are stripped on round-trip.
+
+```
+<pane>
+  <view>        ← contains breakdown, aggregation, datasource-dependencies
+  <mark>        ← mark type
+  <encodings>   ← color, lod, size, text go here (NOT inside view)
+    <color .../>
+    <lod .../>
+    <size .../>
+```
+
+The field must also have a `column` def and `column-instance` declared in `datasource-dependencies`.
+
+**LOD co-dependency:** LOD encodings and their column-instances are co-dependent — Tableau strips both if either is missing. Always submit LOD encodings and their column-instances together in the same `apply-workbook` call.
+
+---
+
+## Color encoding
+
+```xml
+<color column="[Sample - Superstore].[none:Category:nk]"/>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Discrete-tier color (three groups, NOT a gradient)
+
+To color marks into a few **distinct groups** (e.g. Top / Bottom / Everyone-Else performers), put a **discrete dimension** on color — typically a calculated field that buckets rows into named groups — NOT a raw measure. Coloring by a measure (`[sum:Profit:qk]`) gives a continuous **gradient**, which is the wrong encoding for "which group is this" and the single most common tier-coloring mistake.
+
+**Step 1 — the field on color is a discrete (`:nk`) dimension calc**, not a `:qk` measure:
+
+```xml
+<!-- color by the GROUP calc (discrete), not by SUM(Profit) (a gradient) -->
+<color column="[Sample - Superstore].[none:Performance Group:nk]"/>
+```
+
+The `Performance Group` calc is a `role="dimension"` field whose formula returns a small set of string labels (e.g. `"Top Performers"` / `"Bottom Performers"` / `"Everyone Else"`). See `calc-fields.md` for the calc + the `none:`/`derivation="None"` column-instance (a dimension calc on a shelf MUST be `none:`, never `usr:` — `usr:` renders blank).
+
+**Step 2 — (optional) pin each group to a specific hex.** Member→color assignment lives in the **datasource `<style>` node** (not the worksheet, not `<preferences>`):
+
+```xml
+<datasource name="federated.myds" ...>
+  <style>
+    <style-rule element="mark">
+      <encoding attr="color" field="[none:Performance Group:nk]" type="palette">
+        <map to="#c0392b"><bucket>&quot;Top Performers&quot;</bucket></map>
+        <map to="#2e75b6"><bucket>&quot;Bottom Performers&quot;</bucket></map>
+        <map to="#bdbdbd"><bucket>&quot;Everyone Else&quot;</bucket></map>
+      </encoding>
+    </style-rule>
+  </style>
+</datasource>
+```
+
+Key facts:
+- Lives in the **datasource** node; `<style-rule element="mark">`; `<encoding attr="color" type="palette">`.
+- `field` here uses the **local** CI name (`[none:Performance Group:nk]`, no datasource prefix); the worksheet `<color column=...>` still references the field to put it on the shelf.
+- `<bucket>` text must include the literal double-quotes for string members: `&quot;Top Performers&quot;`.
+- Without the `<style>` mapping the groups still render as distinct auto-assigned colors — the mapping only PINS specific hexes (e.g. grey for the muted middle).
+
+**Does NOT work:** coloring by the raw measure (`[sum:Profit:qk]`) for a group encoding — that is a continuous gradient, not discrete groups; a `<color-palette type="ordered-categorical">` in `<preferences>` (silently ignored — the assignment must be in the datasource `<style>`).
+
+**Correction — this DOES survive `apply-workbook` (proven live 2026-07-08).** The earlier "always stripped, even at the schema-correct position" note was a misdiagnosis: the datasource `<style>` map round-trips when the map's field is co-declared as a **datasource-scope `<column-instance>`**, and is stripped only when that CI is missing (a worksheet-qualified instance — the form the report used, wrongly blamed on position). "Step 2" is agent-authorable; full recipe + probe receipt under "Per-member (categorical) color assignment" below.
+
+---
+
+## Size encoding (field-driven)
+
+```xml
+<size column="[Sample - Superstore].[avg:Actual Days to Ship:qk]"/>
+```
+
+Used for Gantt bar length (duration), bubble size on scatter plots, etc.
+
+---
+
+## Size (fixed/manual)
+
+To set a fixed mark size (not driven by a field), add two elements as **direct children of `<pane>`**:
+
+```xml
+<mark-sizing mark-sizing-setting="marks-scaling-off"/>
+<style>
+  <style-rule element="mark">
+    <format attr="size" value="2"/>
+  </style-rule>
+</style>
+```
+
+- `marks-scaling-off` disables automatic size scaling
+- `value`: observed `"2"` = small; higher = larger
+
+---
+
+## Detail (LOD) encoding
+
+```xml
+<encodings>
+  <lod column="[Sample - Superstore].[none:Order ID:nk]"/>
+</encodings>
+```
+
+**Does NOT work** (stripped on round-trip): `slices`, `level` with `field` attr, `encoding type=level`.
+
+---
+
+## Text (label) encoding
+
+```xml
+<text column="[Sample - Superstore].[sum:Sales:qk]"/>
+```
+
+Multiple text fields are supported — add multiple `<text>` children in order; Tableau renders them top-to-bottom:
+
+```xml
+<encodings>
+  <text column="[DS].[sum:Sales:qk]"/>
+  <text column="[DS].[none:Category:nk]"/>
+</encodings>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Enabling mark labels
+
+Labels on the text encoding alone are not enough — also enable display via a `<style>` element inside `<pane>`:
+
+```xml
+<style>
+  <style-rule element="mark">
+    <format attr="mark-labels-show" value="true"/>
+    <format attr="mark-labels-cull" value="true"/>
+  </style-rule>
+</style>
+```
+
+`mark-labels-cull: "true"` suppresses overlapping labels.
+
+---
+
+## `mark-labels-mode` values
+
+Controls which marks get a label when `mark-labels-show="true"`:
+
+| Value | Behavior |
+|---|---|
+| `"line-ends"` | Labels only at start and end of a line |
+| `"most-recent"` | Label at the most-recent mark (rightmost by time) — works on Line marks |
+| `"range"` | Label at the min and/or max of a specified field, scoped per-pane or per-table |
+| `"always"` | Label all marks (can get very cluttered) |
+
+### `mark-labels-mode="range"` — label at range endpoint per pane
+
+Use this to show a text label at the point where a field reaches its max value within each pane. Best use case: region name at the rightmost time point in each trellis panel.
+
+```xml
+<style-rule element="mark">
+  <format attr="mark-labels-mode" value="range"/>
+  <format attr="mark-labels-show" value="true"/>
+  <format attr="mark-labels-cull" value="true"/>
+  <format attr="mark-labels-range-min" value="false"/>      <!-- omit min label -->
+  <format attr="mark-labels-range-scope" value="pane"/>     <!-- per panel (not global table) -->
+  <format attr="mark-labels-range-field" value="[Sample - Superstore].[tmn:Order Date:qk]"/>
+</style-rule>
+```
+
+- `mark-labels-range-min="false"` — only label at max (not at min endpoint)
+- `mark-labels-range-scope="pane"` — compute max per panel; use `"table"` for global max
+- `mark-labels-range-field` — the CI that defines the range (typically the time field)
+- Requires `<lod>` encodings for both the label field (e.g. Region) and the range field (e.g. Date) in the same pane
+- `mark-labels-mode="most-recent"` only works reliably on Line marks; use `"range"` for Circle/scatter
+
+---
+
+## Label styling (`element="datalabel"`)
+
+Label color and font are controlled by a **separate `<style-rule>` with `element="datalabel"`** — sibling to the `element="mark"` rule:
+
+```xml
+<style-rule element="datalabel">
+  <format attr="color-mode" value="match"/>
+</style-rule>
+```
+
+| `attr` | Values | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `color-mode` | `"match"` / `"user"` | `"match"` = inherit mark color; `"user"` = use explicit `color` |
+| `color` | hex e.g. `"#000000"` | Used when `color-mode: "user"` |
+| `font-size` | `"11"` | Point size |
+| `font-weight` | `"bold"` | Bold |
+| `font-style` | `"italic"` | Italic |
+
+`element="cell"` controls label position (sibling style-rule):
+
+| `attr` | Values |
+|---|---|
+| `text-align` | `"center"` / `"left"` / `"right"` |
+| `vertical-align` | `"center"` / `"top"` / `"bottom"` |
+
+---
+
+## Axis label text color (`element='label'`)
+
+To set the text color of axis labels (the field values shown on axes and row headers), use `attr="color"` with a per-field `field=` reference in the **table-level `<style>`** (sibling of `<panes>`):
+
+```xml
+<style>
+  <style-rule element="label">
+    <format attr="color" field="[federated.myds].[none:Category:nk]" value="#1e1e1f" />
+    <format attr="color" field="[federated.myds].[dy:Order Date:qk]" value="#1e1e1f" />
+  </style-rule>
+</style>
+```
+
+`element="label"` (axis labels) vs `element="datalabel"` (mark labels):
+
+| | element | style scope | what it controls |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Mark labels | `datalabel` | pane `<style>` | text overlaid on/near each mark |
+| Axis labels | `label` | table-level `<style>` | field values on axis ticks and row headers |
+
+Key facts:
+- Attr is `color` — not `font-color` (`font-color` is not a valid attr and is silently ignored on all elements)
+- `field` is the fully-qualified CI reference: `[datasource-name].[ci-name]` (requires datasource prefix)
+- Multiple `<format>` elements within one `<style-rule element="label">` are valid — one per field
+- Critical for dark-mode worksheets: set a light value (e.g. `#f0efec`) when the background (`element="table"`) is dark
+
+**Does NOT work (all silently ignored):**
+- `attr="font-color"` on any element
+- `element="label"` + `attr="color"` without a `field=` attribute
+- `element="header"` or `element="axis"` with any color attr
+
+---
+
+## Mark appearance (border, opacity)
+
+Inside `<style> → <style-rule element="mark">` (direct child of `<pane>`):
+
+```xml
+<format attr="has-stroke"        value="true"/>
+<format attr="stroke-color"      value="#ffffff"/>
+<format attr="mark-transparency" value="111"/>
+```
+
+`mark-transparency`: `"0"` = fully opaque; higher = more transparent (observed: `"111"` ≈ 44% on 0–255 scale).
+
+---
+
+## Custom continuous color palette
+
+**Not in pane encodings.** Stored in the **table-level `<style>`** element (sibling of `<panes>`, `<view>`):
+
+```xml
+<style>
+  <style-rule element="mark">
+    <encoding type="custom-interpolated"
+              field="[Sample - Superstore].[sum:Profit:qk]"
+              attr="color"

+        <color>#000000</color>

+  </style-rule>
+</style>
+```
+
+- `type` on `color-palette`: `"ordered-diverging"` (pos/neg) or `"ordered-sequential"`
+- `min`/`max`: optional; omit for automatic range
+- 3 color stops sufficient — Tableau interpolates
+
+---
+
+## Per-member (categorical) color assignment
+
+When a dimension is on the Color encoding, specific members can be assigned explicit hex colors. These are stored in the **datasource `<style>` node** — not the worksheet `<style>`, and not `<preferences>`.
+
+```xml
+<datasource name="federated.myds" ...>
+  ...
+  <style>
+    <style-rule element="mark">
+      <encoding attr="color" field="[none:Category:nk]" type="palette">
+        <map to="#2e75b6"><bucket>"Furniture"</bucket></map>
+        <map to="#f4b23f"><bucket>"Office Supplies"</bucket></map>
+        <map to="#e27565"><bucket>"Technology"</bucket></map>
+      </encoding>
+    </style-rule>
+  </style>
+  ...
+</datasource>
+```
+
+Key facts:
+- Lives in the **datasource node**, not the worksheet
+- `<style-rule element="mark">` (not `element="color"` or `element="encoding"`)
+- `<encoding>` attrs: `attr="color"`, `field="[none:FieldName:nk]"` (local CI name — no datasource prefix), `type="palette"`
+- Member names in `<bucket>` must include literal double-quotes in the element text: `"Member Name"` (not `Member Name`)
+- The worksheet's `<encodings><color column="..."/>` still needs to reference the field — the datasource style controls color assignment only, not whether the field is on the Color shelf
+- Works for all mark types (GanttBar, Bar, Circle, etc.)
+
+**Does NOT work (both silently ignored):**
+- `<color-palette type="ordered-categorical">` with `<color-entry>` in `<preferences>` + `palette=` attr on worksheet color encoding
+- `<color-palette type="regular">` in `<preferences>` alone
+
+**Survives `apply-workbook` — requires a datasource-scope `<column-instance>` (proven live 2026-07-08, Desktop pid 18055).** The block round-trips through MCP apply ONLY when the map's field is co-declared as a `<column-instance>` in the same `<datasource>` container — e.g. `<column-instance column='[Category]' derivation='None' name='[none:Category:nk]' pivot='key' type='nominal' />` before `<layout>`, with `<style>` before `<semantic-values>`. Two-form live probe: FORM A (ds-scope CI co-declared) survived, 3/3 hexes in readback; FORM B (style only; field instance solely in the worksheet's `datasource-dependencies`) stripped, 0/3 — the "always stripped, even at the schema-correct position" report used FORM B and blamed sequence position. Productized as `spliceDatasourceStyle` in `evals/lib/datasource-style-splice.mjs`.
+
+Discovery method: assign one color manually via the Edit Colors dialog → call `get-workbook-xml` → inspect the datasource node for the `<style>` block (and the co-located ds-scope `<column-instance>`).

+## Mark types (`<pane> → <mark class="...">`)
+
+| Value | Viz type |
+|---|---|
+| `Bar` | Bar chart |
+| `Circle` | Scatter / circle marks |
+| `Line` | Line chart |
+| `Area` | Area chart |
+| `GanttBar` | Gantt chart |
+| `Automatic` | Tableau auto-selects |
+| `Shape` | Shape marks |
+| `Pie` | Pie chart |
+| `Square` | Square / filled marks |
+| `Text` | Text table / label |
+| `Multipolygon` | Filled polygon map |
+
+---
+
+## Gantt chart pattern
+
+Mark type `GanttBar`. Standard layout:
+- **Cols**: continuous date (`tdy:` day-trunc) — bar start position
+- **Rows**: dimension — one row per category
+- **Size encoding**: duration measure — controls bar length
+- **Color/LOD encodings**: optional
+
+```xml
+<pane>
+  <view>
+    <breakdown value="auto"/>
+  </view>
+  <mark class="GanttBar"/>
+  <encodings>
+    <color column="[DS].[none:ShipStatus:nk]"/>
+    <size  column="[DS].[avg:DaysToShip:qk]"/>
+    <lod   column="[DS].[none:Order ID:nk]"/>
+  </encodings>
+</pane>
+```
+
+```xml
+<rows>[DS].[none:Product Name:nk]</rows>
+<cols>[DS].[tdy:Order Date:qk]</cols>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Aggregation
+
+Inside the worksheet's `<view>` element:
+
+```xml
+<aggregation value="true"/>   <!-- aggregate (default) -->
+<aggregation value="false"/>  <!-- one mark per data row -->
+```
+
+---
+
+## Natural sort (encoding dimension order)
+
+Controls stacking order on area charts or legend order for a color dimension. A direct child of `<view>`:
+
+```xml
+<natural-sort column="[DS].[none:OrderProfitable:nk]" direction="DESC"/>
+```
+
+**Does NOT work:** `shelf-sort-v2` with `shelf="color"` — stripped. `view > sort class="computed"` — also stripped for color dims.
+
+---
+
+## Sorting (shelf-sorts — confirmed working)
+
+Sort lives in `<view>` children as `<shelf-sorts>`, **sibling of `<datasource-dependencies>`**:
+
+```xml
+<shelf-sorts>
+  <shelf-sort-v2
+    dimension-to-sort="[DS].[none:Sub-Category:nk]"
+    direction="DESC"
+    measure-to-sort-by="[DS].[sum:Profit:qk]"
+    is-on-innermost-dimension="true"
+    shelf="rows"/>
+</shelf-sorts>
+```
+
+**Does NOT work:** `sort` as child of `column-instance` (stripped). `tabdoc:sort` via MCP consistently fails with `"missing: global-field-name"`.
+
+### CRASH WARNING — never nest `<sort-computation>` inside `<sort class="computed-sort">`
+
+**`<sort class="computed-sort">` wrapping a `<sort-computation>` child CRASHES Tableau Desktop on apply** (internal logic-assert; the whole session + unsaved work is lost — confirmed live 2026-06-29). It is well-formed XML and passes XSD, so it looks valid — but it is fatal.
+
+```xml
+<!-- DO NOT — crashes Desktop -->
+<sort class="computed-sort" column="[DS].[none:Sub-Category:nk]" direction="DESC">
+  <sort-computation direction="DESC" field="[DS].[sum:Profit:qk]"/>
+</sort>
+```
+
+To sort a dimension by a measure, use the **self-closing inline `<computed-sort>`** (a different element, no child) in `<view>`, or the `shelf-sorts` form above — both apply safely:
+
+```xml
+<!-- SAFE — applies and renders -->
+<computed-sort column="[DS].[none:Sub-Category:nk]" direction="DESC" using="[DS].[sum:Profit:qk]"/>
+```
+
+The `computed-sort-crash` validation rule blocks the crashing form at preflight (severity: error).
+
+---
+
+## Filled map (choropleth)
+
+Key requirements:
+- `<rows>`/`<cols>` use **generated fields directly** (no CI format): `[DS].[Latitude (generated)]`
+- Must include `<mapsources>` element in `<view>`
+- Must include `<geometry>` encoding pointing to `[Geometry (generated)]`
+- Mark class is `Automatic`
+- No lat/lon column defs needed — Tableau generates them
+
+```xml
+<view>
+  <datasources>
+    <datasource name="Sample - Superstore"/>
+  </datasources>
+  <mapsources>
+    <mapsource name="Tableau"/>
+  </mapsources>
+  <datasource-dependencies datasource="Sample - Superstore">
+    <column name="[State/Province]" role="dimension" type="nominal" datatype="string" semantic-role="[State].[Name]"/>
+    <column name="[Profit]" role="measure" type="quantitative" datatype="real"/>
+    <column-instance name="[none:State/Province:nk]" column="[State/Province]" pivot="key" type="nominal" derivation="None"/>
+    <column-instance name="[sum:Profit:qk]" column="[Profit]" pivot="key" type="quantitative" derivation="Sum"/>
+  </datasource-dependencies>
+  <aggregation value="true"/>
+</view>
+```
+
+Pane encodings:
+```xml
+<encodings>
+  <geometry column="[DS].[Geometry (generated)]"/>
+  <color    column="[DS].[sum:Profit:qk]"/>
+  <lod      column="[DS].[none:State/Province:nk]"/>
+</encodings>
+```
+
+Rows/cols:
+```xml
+<rows>[DS].[Latitude (generated)]</rows>
+<cols>[DS].[Longitude (generated)]</cols>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Double-encoding (avoid)
+
+Do not encode the same field on two visual channels (e.g. bar length AND color both showing Sales). This wastes a channel. Use the second channel to show a *different* measure or dimension — e.g. bar length = Sales, color = Profit Ratio.
+
+---
+
+## Continuous vs discrete date on time-series axes
+
+For line/area charts over time, **continuous date (`:qk`) is almost always better** than discrete (`:ok`):
+
+| | Discrete `:ok` | Continuous `:qk` |
+|---|---|---|
+| CI suffix | `[tmn:Order Date:ok]` | `[tmn:Order Date:qk]` |
+| CI `type` | `"ordinal"` | `"quantitative"` |
+| Axis | Category tick per period | True continuous time axis |
+| Gaps | None (all periods shown equally) | Shows true time spacing |
+| Best for | Ranked/ordinal comparisons | Trends, time series |
+
+Same derivation prefix (`tmn`, `tqr`, `tyr`, etc.) — only suffix and `type` differ. Prefer `:qk` for time series.
+
+---
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this module when you need to:
+- **Add color, size, shape, text, or LOD encodings** to a worksheet's marks card
+- **Change the mark type** (Bar, Line, Circle, GanttBar, Pie, Shape, etc.)
+- **Configure label display** — enabling mark labels, styling font/color, controlling position
+- **Set a custom color palette** (continuous diverging or sequential)
+- **Build a Gantt chart** with a size encoding for duration
+- **Create a dual-axis chart** with two mark types overlaid
+- **Add a filled map (choropleth)** with color encoding over generated lat/lon fields
+
+For filter encodings (which use a different structure), see `workbook-filters.md`.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Encodings go in `pane > encodings`, not `pane > view`**: This is the most common structural mistake. Encodings inside `view` are silently stripped on round-trip. Always place `encodings` as a direct child of `pane`, sibling to `view` and `mark`.
+- **Declare the field in datasource-dependencies**: Any field used in an encoding must have both a `column` def and a `column-instance` in the worksheet's `datasource-dependencies` — even if it only appears on encodings and not on rows/cols.
+- **LOD encodings require their column-instances in the same submission**: LOD encodings and their CIs are co-dependent. Tableau strips both if either is missing. Submit them together.
+- **Use `type-v2` for layout, CI format for encodings**: The `column` attr on an encoding node uses CI format `[DS].[none:Field:nk]` — include the datasource prefix.
+- **For time-series charts, prefer continuous dates**: Use `[tmn:Order Date:qk]` (`:qk`, type `"quantitative"`) over `[tmn:Order Date:ok]` (`:ok`, type `"ordinal"`) for true continuous time axes that correctly show date spacing.
+- **Continuous color palettes go in the table-level `style` node**: Not in pane encodings. The `style` node containing a custom palette is a sibling of `panes` and `view` at the table level.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Encoding inside `view`**: `pane > view > mark > encoding` is stripped. Use `pane > encodings > color` (direct child of `pane`).
+2. **Missing column def for encoding field**: A field on a color encoding still needs a `column` + `column-instance` in `datasource-dependencies`. Omitting either causes the encoding to appear empty.
+3. **Wrong `+` vs `*` syntax in rows/cols for dual-axis**: `*` separates two different fields into separate panes. `+` with the same CI twice creates a dual-axis overlay. Confusing them creates the wrong layout.
+4. **Gantt: size encoding controls bar length, not position**: The `size` encoding specifies the duration measure. The bar start position is controlled by the date field on Cols. Both are required for a working Gantt.
+5. **Choropleth: using CI format for lat/lon**: The generated lat/lon fields use a different reference format — `[DS].[Latitude (generated)]` (not CI format). Using CI format for these breaks the map.
+6. **Natural sort placed inside encodings**: `natural-sort` is a direct child of `view` — not a child of `encodings`. It controls the stacking/legend order for a dimension encoding.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation in Tableau Desktop
+
+The standard workflow for adding an encoding to a worksheet:
+
+1. **Identify the column-instance name** for the field: check the worksheet's `datasource-dependencies` in `get_workbook` output, or derive it using CI naming rules (`none:FieldName:nk` for dimensions, `sum:FieldName:qk` for measures).
+2. **Ensure the field has a column def + CI in datasource-dependencies**: add `column` and `column-instance` nodes if they are not already present.
+3. **Add the encoding node to `pane > encodings`**: e.g. `{ "type": "color", "attrs": { "column": "[DS].[none:Category:nk]" } }`. Create the `encodings` node if it doesn't exist (as a direct child of `pane`, sibling to `view` and `mark`).
+4. **For mark labels**: also add a `style > style-rule[element=mark]` node to `pane` with `mark-labels-show: "true"`.
+5. **Submit via `try_set_workbook`** and inspect the result with `get_workbook` to confirm encodings survived round-trip. If an encoding is missing, check that it was in `pane > encodings` (not `pane > view`).
+
+For color palettes: set them in the table-level `style` node (sibling of `panes`), not in pane-level encodings. Use the `encoding` child with `type="custom-interpolated"` and a `color-palette` grandchild.
+
+---
+
+## Discovery method
+
+When you need to learn an unknown encoding format: ask the user to apply it manually in Tableau, then call `get-workbook-xml` and inspect the cached XML file. Open the XML and look inside the `<pane>` → `<encodings>` element. This is faster and more reliable than guessing.
+
+---
+
+## Dual-axis charts
+
+Dual-axis overlays two mark types on the same axis (e.g., Line + Circle for bump charts). All patterns below discovered by reverse-engineering.
+
+**Rows syntax** — `+` (not `*`) with the same CI referenced twice:
+```xml
+<rows>([DS].[usr:Calc:qk] + [DS].[usr:Calc:qk])</rows>
+```
+
+**Three panes** are created (not two). The second measure's axis uses `y-axis-name`, its second layer adds `y-index="1"`:
+```xml
+<pane id="1"/>                                                         <!-- base axis — first mark type (e.g. Circle) -->
+<pane id="2" y-axis-name="[DS].[usr:Calc:qk]"/>                      <!-- dual axis — second mark type (e.g. Line) -->
+<pane id="3" y-axis-name="[DS].[usr:Calc:qk]" y-index="1"/>         <!-- dual axis second layer -->
+```
+
+**Axis reversal** (e.g. rank 1 at top) — use `<encoding>` elements in `<style> <style-rule element="axis">` on the table:
+```xml
+<style-rule element="axis">
+  <encoding fold="true" reverse="true" type="space"
+    field="[DS].[usr:Calc:qk]" scope="rows" attr="space" class="1" field-type="quantitative"/>
+  <encoding reverse="true" type="space"
+    field="[DS].[usr:Calc:qk]" scope="rows" attr="space" class="0" field-type="quantitative"/>
+</style-rule>
+```
+
+**Line-ends labels** (labels only at start/end, not every point):
+```xml
+<format attr="mark-labels-mode" value="line-ends"/>
+```
+Set alongside `mark-labels-show="true"` and `mark-labels-cull="false"` in the pane's style-rule.
+
+**`+` vs `*` in rows/cols:**
+- `*` = multiple different fields → separate panes side-by-side
+- `+` = same field twice → dual-axis overlay on a single axis
+
+---
+
+## Multiple encoding instances of same type
+
+A single pane can have **multiple elements of the same encoding type** — this is valid and confirmed working. Common use case: multiple LOD fields, multiple tooltip fields in one pane.
+
+```xml
+<encodings>
+  <lod     column="[DS].[none:Field1:nk]"/>
+  <lod     column="[DS].[none:Field2:nk]"/>
+  <lod     column="[DS].[none:Field3:nk]"/>
+  <tooltip column="[DS].[sum:Measure1:qk]"/>
+  <tooltip column="[DS].[sum:Measure2:qk]"/>
+</encodings>
+```
+
+Each referenced field still needs a column def + column-instance in `<datasource-dependencies>`.
+
+Tooltip dimensions in aggregated views need `attr:`, not `none:` — see `tactics/viz/tooltip.md`.
+
+---
+
+## Simple reference line (`refline`)
+
+A `<refline>` element lives inside `<view>` (sibling of `<datasource-dependencies>`), distinct from the statistical `<reference-line>` element:
+
+```xml
+<refline
+  id="refline0"
+  axis-column="[DS].[sum:Measure:qk]"
+  scope="per-table"
+  value-column="[DS].[sum:Measure:qk]"
+  label-type="none"/>
+```
+
+- `id`: sequential `refline0`, `refline1`, etc.
+- `axis-column`: the axis the line appears on
+- `value-column`: the measure used to compute the line value (can equal `axis-column`, or a different measure for a fixed-value reference)
+- `scope`: `"per-table"` applies across the whole table
+- `label-type`: `"none"` = no label shown
+- Can target table-calc derived measures (e.g. `[pcto:ctd:Track Name:qk]`)
+
+---
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this module when you need to:
+
+- Map a field to a **visual channel** (color, size, text/label, shape, LOD/detail, tooltip)
+- Set a **mark type** (Bar, Line, Circle, Area, GanttBar, Text, Pie, etc.)
+- Configure **label display** (show/hide labels, label mode, label font and color)
+- Apply a **custom continuous color palette** (diverging or sequential)
+- Build a **Gantt chart**, **filled map**, or **dual-axis** chart
+- Control **aggregation** (aggregate vs. one mark per row)
+- Add a **natural sort** for stacking order on area or stacked bar charts
+- Learn what to do when an encoding pattern is unknown (ask user to apply manually, then inspect with `get-workbook-xml`)
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Encodings go inside `pane > encodings`, never inside `pane > view`**: Encodings placed inside `view` are stripped on round-trip.
+- **Always declare column defs + column-instances in `datasource-dependencies`**: Every field referenced in an encoding must have both a `column` def and a `column-instance` in the worksheet's `datasource-dependencies`.
+- **LOD encodings and their column-instances are co-dependent**: Submit them together in the same `apply-workbook` call — Tableau strips both if either is missing.
+- **Custom color palettes go in the table-level `style`**, not in pane encodings.
+- **Use `:qk` (continuous) for time-series axes**: Continuous date column-instances produce a true time axis. Discrete (`:ok`) creates category ticks.
+- **Ask the user to apply unknown encodings manually**, then inspect with `get-workbook-xml` — this is faster than guessing.
+- **Prefer `mark-labels-mode="range"` over `"most-recent"` for scatter/circle marks**: `"most-recent"` only works reliably on Line marks.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Encoding inside `pane > view`**: `pane > view` is for breakdown and datasource references. Encodings (color, size, text, lod) must be inside `pane > encodings` — placing them in `view` causes them to be silently stripped.
+2. **Missing column def or column-instance for an encoded field**: If either the `column` def or the `column-instance` is absent from `datasource-dependencies`, Tableau strips the encoding on round-trip.
+3. **Omitting `mark-labels-show="true"` when adding a text encoding**: Adding a `<text>` encoding alone does not display labels. The `style-rule element="mark"` with `mark-labels-show="true"` is also required.
+4. **Putting the custom color palette inside `pane > encodings`**: The `encoding type="custom-interpolated"` block goes in the table-level `<style>` element (sibling of `<panes>`), not inside a pane's `<encodings>`.
+5. **Using `*` instead of `+` for dual-axis**: `*` creates side-by-side panes; `+` with the same CI twice creates a dual-axis overlay.
+6. **Using `mark-labels-mode="most-recent"` on Circle marks**: This mode only works reliably on Line marks. Use `"range"` with `mark-labels-range-scope="pane"` for scatter/circle small multiples.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+To add a color encoding to an existing worksheet:
+
+1. Call `get-workbook-xml` to get the current cached XML file path.
+2. Parse the XML with `xml.etree.ElementTree`.
+3. Find the target worksheet and navigate to its `<pane>` element inside `<table> > <panes>`.
+4. Add the column def and column-instance for the color field to the worksheet's `datasource-dependencies` (inside `view`).
+5. Find or create the `<encodings>` element inside `<pane>` and append: `<color column="[DS].[none:Category:nk]"/>`.
+6. Write to `/tmp/modified_workbook.xml` and submit via `apply-workbook({ workbook_file: "/tmp/modified_workbook.xml" })`.
+7. Call `get-workbook-xml` and inspect the result to confirm the encoding survived the round-trip.

+# Pane Structure in Worksheet XML
+
+How Tableau's `<panes>` section changes based on shelf configuration. Panes are
+the per-axis rendering contexts that Tableau uses to track independent axes,
+mark encoding, and selection behaviour.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, validate, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Empirically confirmed Tableau XML patterns that directly govern how agents correctly author worksheet XML.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: pane, panes, y-axis-name, x-axis-name, multi-measure, dual-axis, mark-class, breakdown, rows, cols, table-calc, pane-multiplication
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how many panes for multiple measures on rows", "y-axis-name vs x-axis-name when to use", "panes multiply when measures share the same shelf", "different mark class per axis in combo chart", "anchor pane has no id", "scatter plot one measure per shelf", "table calc treated same as measure for panes", "pane id values start at 1", "named panes for per-axis mark overrides", "encoding lands on wrong pane"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Consult this file whenever you are:
+
+- Authoring a worksheet that puts multiple measures on the same shelf (dual-axis
+  or multi-measure rows/cols)
+- Customising mark class per axis (e.g. bar + line combo charts)
+- Diagnosing "wrong axis" bugs where a mark encoding lands on the wrong pane
+- Writing pane XML from scratch after `apply-worksheet` round-trips
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **One measure per shelf, one dimension per shelf → single unnamed pane.** You
+  never need more than the baseline anchor pane for these layouts.
+- **Multiple measures on the same shelf → always emit all named panes.** Tableau
+  adds them on read-back; omit them on write-in and Tableau will regenerate them,
+  but include them when you need to target per-axis mark settings.
+- **`y-axis-name` vs `x-axis-name`:** Use `y-axis-name` when the measures are on
+  Rows; use `x-axis-name` when the measures are on Cols. The attribute name tracks
+  the axis the pane controls.
+- **Pane `id` values start at `1`** for named panes. The anchor (unnamed) pane has
+  no `id`. Ids are assigned in left-to-right, top-to-bottom shelf order.
+- **Table calcs behave identically to regular measures** for pane-multiplication
+  purposes — one extra pane per calc field added to a multi-measure shelf.
+- When writing XML from scratch, the minimal safe anchor pane is:
+  ```xml
+  <pane selection-relaxation-option="selection-relaxation-allow">
+    <view><breakdown value="auto"/></view>
+    <mark class="Automatic"/>
+  </pane>
+  ```
+  Tableau will append named panes for each measure on read-back; you do not need
+  to pre-populate them unless you need per-axis mark overrides.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **Omitting named panes when mark class differs per axis.** If you want bars for
+  Sales and a line for Profit, you must emit `<pane id="1">` and `<pane id="2">`
+  with distinct `<mark class="..."/>` values. Omitting them collapses both axes to
+  the anchor mark class.
+- **Using `y-axis-name` for a measure on Cols.** Tableau uses `x-axis-name` when
+  the measure is on the Cols shelf. Swapping the attribute causes silent failures
+  where mark settings are not applied.
+- **Assuming scatter-plots multiply panes.** One measure on Rows + one different
+  measure on Cols = a single unnamed pane. Panes only multiply when two or more
+  measures share the *same shelf*.
+- **Hard-coding `id` on the anchor pane.** Tableau silently strips any `id`
+  attribute from the anchor pane on round-trip — it is safe to submit but the
+  attribute will not be preserved. Do not rely on it.
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Summary table
+
+| Test | Rows | Cols | Pane count | `id` attrs | Axis attr | Notes |
+|------|------|------|-----------|------------|-----------|-------|
+| 1 | SUM(Sales) | Category | 1 | none | none | Simplest baseline |
+| 2 | SUM(Sales) + SUM(Profit) | Category | 3 | 1, 2 | `y-axis-name` | Anchor + 1 per measure |

+
+One unnamed anchor pane. No `id`, no axis attribute.
+

+
+### Test 2 — Two measures on Rows, dimension on Cols
+
+```xml

+    </view>
+    <mark class="Automatic"/>

+    <mark class="Automatic"/>

+```
+
+Rows: `([Sample - Superstore].[sum:Sales:qk] + [Sample - Superstore].[sum:Profit:qk])`
+Cols: `[Sample - Superstore].[none:Category:nk]`
+
+Three panes: one unnamed anchor + one named pane per measure. Named panes carry
+`y-axis-name` pointing to the full column reference of the measure they represent.
+Ids are assigned in shelf order (Sales first = id 1, Profit second = id 2).
+
+---
+
+### Test 3 — Measure on Cols, dimension on Rows
+
+```xml
+<panes>
+  <pane selection-relaxation-option="selection-relaxation-allow">
+    <view>
+      <breakdown value="auto"/>
+    </view>

+  </pane>
+</panes>
+```
+
+Rows: `[Sample - Superstore].[none:Category:nk]`
+Cols: `[Sample - Superstore].[sum:Sales:qk]`
+
+Single unnamed anchor pane — identical structure to Test 1. Swapping the measure
+to Cols does not add panes when there is only one measure.
+
+---
+
+### Test 4 — Two measures on Cols, dimension on Rows
+
+```xml
+<panes>
+  <pane selection-relaxation-option="selection-relaxation-allow">
+    <view>
+      <breakdown value="auto"/>
+    </view>
+    <mark class="Automatic"/>
+  </pane>
+  <pane id="1" selection-relaxation-option="selection-relaxation-allow" x-axis-name="[Sample - Superstore].[sum:Sales:qk]">
+    <view>
+      <breakdown value="auto"/>
+    </view>
+    <mark class="Automatic"/>
+  </pane>
+  <pane id="2" selection-relaxation-option="selection-relaxation-allow" x-axis-name="[Sample - Superstore].[sum:Profit:qk]">
+    <view>
+      <breakdown value="auto"/>
+    </view>
+    <mark class="Automatic"/>
+  </pane>
+</panes>
+```
+
+Rows: `[Sample - Superstore].[none:Category:nk]`
+Cols: `([Sample - Superstore].[sum:Sales:qk] + [Sample - Superstore].[sum:Profit:qk])`
+
+Three panes, same count as Test 2. The axis attribute flips from `y-axis-name` to
+`x-axis-name` because the measures live on the Cols shelf.
+
+---
+
+### Test 5 — Measure on Rows, measure on Cols (scatter-style)
+
+```xml
+<panes>
+  <pane selection-relaxation-option="selection-relaxation-allow">
+    <view>
+      <breakdown value="auto"/>
+    </view>
+    <mark class="Automatic"/>
+  </pane>
+</panes>
+```
+
+Rows: `[Sample - Superstore].[sum:Sales:qk]`
+Cols: `[Sample - Superstore].[sum:Profit:qk]`
+
+Single unnamed anchor pane. The two measures are on *different* shelves so there
+is no pane multiplication — each shelf has exactly one measure and Tableau treats
+it as a standard XY encoding.
+
+---
+
+### Test 6 — Regular measure + table calc both on Rows, dimension on Cols
+
+```xml
+<panes>
+  <pane selection-relaxation-option="selection-relaxation-allow">
+    <view>
+      <breakdown value="auto"/>
+    </view>
+    <mark class="Automatic"/>
+  </pane>
+  <pane id="1" selection-relaxation-option="selection-relaxation-allow" y-axis-name="[Sample - Superstore].[sum:Sales:qk]">
+    <view>
+      <breakdown value="auto"/>
+    </view>
+    <mark class="Automatic"/>
+  </pane>
+  <pane id="2" selection-relaxation-option="selection-relaxation-allow" y-axis-name="[Sample - Superstore].[usr:Calculation_6340831328333826:qk]">
+    <view>
+      <breakdown value="auto"/>
+    </view>
+    <mark class="Automatic"/>
+  </pane>
+</panes>
+```
+
+Rows: `([Sample - Superstore].[sum:Sales:qk] + [Sample - Superstore].[usr:Calculation_6340831328333826:qk])`
+Cols: `[Sample - Superstore].[none:Category:nk]`
+
+Three panes: identical pattern to Test 2. The `usr:` prefix column-instance is used
+as-is in `y-axis-name` — Tableau does not normalise it to a simpler reference.
+
+**Side observation on table-calc rewriting:** When Tableau round-trips a worksheet
+with a table calc, it may rewrite the `<table-calc>` inside the `<column>` definition
+from `ordering-type="Rows"` to `ordering-type="Field"` with an explicit
+`ordering-field="[Sample - Superstore].[Category]"`. The `<column-instance>` CI keeps
+`ordering-type="Rows"`. This is Tableau resolving the "Rows" shorthand against the
+actual partition field on the view; it is safe to write either form on input.
+
+---
+
+## Conclusions
+
+1. **Panes multiply only when two or more measures share the same shelf.** One
+   measure on Rows + one on Cols = 1 pane. Two measures on Rows = 3 panes.
+
+2. **The anchor pane (no `id`) is always present.** It holds the default mark class
+   and view breakdown for the whole worksheet. Named panes supplement it; they do
+   not replace it.
+
+3. **`y-axis-name` vs `x-axis-name` tracks which shelf the measures are on,** not
+   which visual axis the chart uses. Rows shelf → `y-axis-name`; Cols shelf →
+   `x-axis-name`.
+
+4. **Named pane ids start at 1 and increment in shelf order.** The first measure in
+   the shelf expression gets `id="1"`, the second gets `id="2"`, and so on.
+
+5. **Table calcs are treated identically to aggregated measures** for pane-
+   multiplication purposes: one named pane per measure regardless of whether the
+   field is a `sum:` or `usr:` derivation.

+# Tooltip Encodings
+
+Tooltip is the one marks-card property that does NOT join the view's level of detail. That makes it the one place where a raw dimension reference is a render hazard: in an aggregated view Tableau must convert a tooltip dimension via `ATTR()`, and a directly-authored `none:` column-instance defeats that conversion — the XML applies "successfully", then the sheet renders BLANK with `cannot be converted to a measure using ATTR()` on the pill.
+
+Related: `tactics/viz/marks-and-encodings.md` (general encoding XML, multiple encoding instances). Preflight backstop: validation rule `tooltip-dimension-requires-attr` blocks the broken shape at apply time.
+
+## When to Use
+
+- Adding a dimension to Tooltip as hover context on an aggregated view (bar/line/map at a coarser grain than the dimension) — use `attr:` derivation, this file's core rule.
+- Any tooltip authoring where the view has aggregate refs (`sum:`, `avg:`, `cnt:`, …) on shelves or encodings.
+- NOT needed for measures on tooltip (they aggregate normally) or for fully disaggregated views (`<aggregation value="false"/>`), where `none:` tooltip dimensions are legal.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Dimension on Tooltip in an aggregated view → `derivation="Attribute"`, prefix `attr:`.** Declare the Attribute column-instance and reference it from `<tooltip>`:
+
+```xml
+<column-instance column="[Segment]" derivation="Attribute" name="[attr:Segment:nk]" pivot="key" type="nominal"/>
+
+<encodings>
+  <tooltip column="[DS].[attr:Segment:nk]"/>
+  <tooltip column="[DS].[sum:Sales:qk]"/>
+</encodings>
+```
+
+- Keep the suffix aligned to the instance type: string/nominal `:nk`, ordinal `:ok`, quantitative ATTR `:qk` (confirmed shape: `[attr:...:nk]` tooltip fields in aggregated worksheets, e.g. Tableau Public "Trellis Chart" example).
+- The canonical derivation string is `Attribute` — `Attr` is invalid and gets silently rewritten by Tableau (see the `invalid-derivation-string` rule).
+- If the tooltip value must be computed at the aggregate level, a `usr:` (derivation="User") aggregated calc is the alternative to `attr:`.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **`none:` dimension on `<tooltip>` in an aggregated view — blanks the sheet (confirmed P0, GUS W-23447711).** This FAILS at render after applying cleanly:
+
+```xml
+<view>
+  <datasource-dependencies datasource="DS">
+    <column datatype="string" name="[Segment]" role="dimension" type="nominal"/>
+    <column datatype="real" name="[Sales]" role="measure" type="quantitative"/>
+    <column-instance column="[Segment]" derivation="None" name="[none:Segment:nk]" pivot="key" type="nominal"/>
+    <column-instance column="[Sales]" derivation="Sum" name="[sum:Sales:qk]" pivot="key" type="quantitative"/>
+  </datasource-dependencies>
+  <aggregation value="true"/>
+</view>
+<panes><pane><encodings>
+  <tooltip column="[DS].[none:Segment:nk]"/>
+  <tooltip column="[DS].[sum:Sales:qk]"/>
+</encodings></pane></panes>
+```
+
+- Retrying the same XML because `apply-workbook` reported success — apply success does NOT mean the sheet rendered; this shape is the canonical false-PASS.
+- Confusing tooltip with text/label: dimensions on Text/Label JOIN the view grain (like Detail), so `none:` is legitimate there. Do not "fix" text encodings to `attr:` by analogy.
+- Using `derivation="Attr"` instead of `Attribute`.
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. Author the Attribute column-instance for the dimension alongside the existing declarations in `<datasource-dependencies>`.
+2. Point the `<tooltip>` encoding at the `attr:` instance name (never the `none:` instance) whenever the view is aggregated.
+3. Disaggregated exception: with `<aggregation value="false"/>` (one mark per row), `none:` tooltip dimensions are valid — Tableau is not ATTR-converting at an aggregated mark grain.
+4. Preflight: the `tooltip-dimension-requires-attr` validation rule errors on the broken shape with a FIX line; do not acknowledge past it — change the derivation.

+# Tableau Package (.tpkg) Bundle Anatomy
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: an agent or SE about to vibe-code and hand-assemble a bundled Tableau extension (`.tpkg`) instead of side-loading loose files
+- Authoring outcome improved: produce a `.tpkg` whose `manifest.json`, `.trex`, and `content/` layout parse and load on the first try — by copying an evidenced-good bundle's exact shape rather than guessing the format
+- In-scope reason: the file-format half of "vibe-coding a bundled extension"; the API/lifecycle/install half lives in the workflow companion
+- Out-of-scope risk: NOT a signing/Exchange-publishing guide, NOT the Extensions API reference. Bundle *format* only
+- Tags: tpkg, bundled extension, manifest.json, trex, dashboard-extension, worksheet-extension, extension_manifest xmlns, source-location url, content layout, reverse-domain id, extension-version, permissions full data, create-tpkg, tableau packages disk cache, artifactory bundle manifest, extensions folder history
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "what goes in a tpkg", "tableau package manifest.json schema", "trex manifest structure bundled", "content folder extension layout", "extension-version vs manifestVersion", "bundle a dashboard extension into a tpkg", "relative url in trex means bundled", "how does create-tpkg.js assemble the package", "package a vibe-coded extension", "tpkg naming version convention", "tableau packages disk cache directory", "where does tableau install a bundled extension on disk", "artifactory bundle manifest versioned dir", "did the extensions folder used to be called trex"
+
+Enforcement: judgment-only
+
+## When to Use
+
+Read this when you are **assembling** a `.tpkg` (a zip that bundles an extension's manifest + web assets) and need the exact on-disk shape: the `manifest.json` keys, the `.trex` element/attribute set, where `content/` files go, and the naming/versioning rules. Reach for the companion — `expertise://tableau/tactics/viz/extension-vibe-coding-workflow` — for the end-to-end (API code, packaging command, install path), and `expertise://tableau/tactics/viz/building-viz-extensions` for the render/lifecycle debugging of the web app itself.
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Turning a working `content/<slug>/index.html`+`main.js` into a distributable `.tpkg`
+- Hand-editing or reviewing a `manifest.json` / `.trex` for a bundled extension
+- Understanding what `create-tpkg.js` emits so an agent can reproduce or extend it
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Copy an evidenced-good bundle's shape, don't invent it.** The layout below is quoted verbatim from a complete worked bundle (`attrition-kpi`, a dashboard extension). Mirror its key set and element order.
+- **Three parts, one zip.** A `.tpkg` is an ordinary zip containing exactly: (1) `manifest.json` at the root, (2) one or more `extensions/*.trex` extension manifests, (3) a `content/` tree of web assets. `content/` is required in the zip **even if** every extension used a remote URL. The sandbox rule is confirmed evidence: relative asset paths are resolved *under* the `.tpkg`, never above it (W49 Slack digest, 2026-07-06).
+- **The manifest folder is `extensions/` — it used to be `trex/`.** The canonical name is `extensions/`; it was renamed from `trex/` (W49 Slack digest, 2026-06-12 rename thread). The worked `attrition-kpi` anchor uses `extensions/` (see the verbatim layout below), so mirror that; treat a `trex/` folder as the legacy name only.
+- **Relative `<url>` = bundled; absolute = remote.** A `<source-location><url>` with no `://` (e.g. `attrition-kpi/index.html`) is resolved *from* `content/` — so you **omit the `content/` prefix** in the URL. A `://` URL loads a remotely hosted extension instead.
+- **Slug = last reverse-domain segment.** `create-tpkg.js` derives the package/extension/content folder slug as `packageId.split('.').pop()` — `com.tableau.attrition-kpi` → `attrition-kpi`. The `content/<slug>/` folder, the `.trex` filename, and the URL prefix all reuse that one slug.
+- **Root element encodes the extension type.** `dashboard-extension` (dashboard object), `worksheet-extension` (viz on the Marks card), or `workspace-extension`. The `.trex` `id` in the worked bundle is `<packageId>.<type-suffix>` (e.g. `com.tableau.attrition-kpi.dashboard`).
+- **Two version fields, two meanings.** `manifest.json` carries `version` (the package release) and `manifestVersion` (`"0.1"`, the package-manifest schema version). The `.trex` carries `manifest-version="0.1"` (the trex schema) and `extension-version` (the extension's own semver). Keep the package `version` and the primary extension's `extension-version` aligned.
+- **Localize the display name through `<resources>`.** `<name resource-id="name"/>` points at a `<resource id="name"><text locale="en_US">…</text></resource>`; `<default-locale>` names the fallback.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Putting `content/` in the `<url>`.** For a bundled extension the URL is relative to `content/`, so `content/attrition-kpi/index.html` is wrong — use `attrition-kpi/index.html`.
+2. **Omitting `content/` from the zip** when the extension is remote — it is still required.
+3. **Confusing `version` / `manifestVersion` / `extension-version`.** They are three distinct fields; only `manifestVersion` and the trex `manifest-version` are the fixed schema string `"0.1"`.
+4. **Inventing a fresh id per rebuild.** The `id` is the stable identity Tableau trusts; changing it re-triggers the one-time trust prompt and orphans prior placements.
+5. **`::` / `../` / symlinks in a `<url>`.** Path traversal and symlinks are rejected — keep every asset a plain relative path under `content/`.
+6. **Assuming the viz `.trex` and dashboard `.trex` are identical.** A `worksheet-extension` additionally declares `<encoding>` blocks (the Marks-card contract); a `dashboard-extension` does not.
+7. **Naming the manifest folder `trex/`.** That is the pre-rename name (renamed to `extensions/` on 2026-06-12); the current/anchor layout uses `extensions/`.
+
+## Implementation
+
+**The real `manifest.json`** (quoted verbatim from the worked `attrition-kpi` bundle — this is the complete, evidenced key set):
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "com.tableau.attrition-kpi",
+  "version": "1.0.0",
+  "manifestVersion": "0.1",
+  "name": "Attrition KPI",
+  "author": {
+    "name": "Example Corp",
+    "email": "dev@example.com"
+  },
+  "description": "Single big KPI tile showing current attrition rate vs. target"
+}
+```
+
+**The real `extensions/attrition-kpi.trex`** (verbatim; a `dashboard-extension` with a `<permissions>` block — the `<icon>` base64 is elided here as `…`):
+
+```xml
+<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
+<manifest manifest-version="0.1" xmlns="http://www.tableau.com/xml/extension_manifest">
+  <dashboard-extension id="com.tableau.attrition-kpi.dashboard" extension-version="1.0.0">
+    <default-locale>en_US</default-locale>
+    <name resource-id="name"/>
+    <description>Big KPI tile: current attrition rate vs. target</description>
+    <author name="Example Corp" email="dev@example.com"
+            organization="Example Corp" website="https://example.com"/>
+    <min-api-version>1.1</min-api-version>
+    <source-location>
+      <url>attrition-kpi/index.html</url>
+    </source-location>
+    <icon>iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAEAAAA…</icon>
+    <permissions>
+      <permission>full data</permission>
+    </permissions>
+  </dashboard-extension>
+  <resources>
+    <resource id="name">
+      <text locale="en_US">Attrition KPI</text>
+    </resource>
+  </resources>
+</manifest>
+```
+
+**On-disk / in-zip layout** (mirrors the worked bundle exactly):
+
+```
+attrition-kpi/                    ← package dir (slug = last id segment)
+  manifest.json
+  extensions/
+    attrition-kpi.trex            ← <slug>.trex
+  content/
+    attrition-kpi/                ← content/<slug>/
+      index.html                  ← <script src="tableau.extensions.1.latest.js">, then main.js
+      main.js
+      tableau.extensions.1.latest.js   ← the vendored Extensions API library
+```
+
+**Installed on disk (the two paths a bundle can reach a workbook).** The `.tpkg` shape above is also the *installed* shape. When a package is published/installed, its versioned server resources land at `~/Library/Application Support/Tableau/Packages/<id>/<version>/`, a tree **isomorphic to the `.tpkg`** — i.e. a straight folder-copy publish (W49 digest, 2026-07-06; the Artifactory→disk flow merged 2026-07-02, see the workflow companion). The *other* path is workbook-embedded resources, which are read from the `.twbx` through `ArchiveWorkbookParser` — Lee's framing: "the workbook is the container" (Lee, W49 digest, 2026-06-30). So the same bundle shape serves two locations: the server-resource cache (`Packages/<id>/<version>/`) or embedded in the `.twbx`.
+
+**How `create-tpkg.js` assembles it** (the evidenced scaffolder, for reference):
+
+1. Derives `packageSlug = packageId.split('.').pop()`, `extId = `${packageId}.${type}``, and the XML root from `type` (`viz`→`worksheet-extension`, `dashboard`→`dashboard-extension`, `workspace`→`workspace-extension`).
+2. `mkdir -p extensions/` and `content/<slug>/`.
+3. Writes `manifest.json` (the six keys above), `extensions/<slug>.trex`, `content/<slug>/index.html`, and `content/<slug>/main.js`. For a `viz` type it adds an `<encoding id="drop">` block to the `.trex`; a `dashboard` type omits it.
+4. Downloads `tableau.extensions.1.latest.js` into `content/<slug>/` (this network step is deliberately **dropped** in the offline scaffold `evals/tools/make-extension-scaffold.mjs`, which emits a labelled placeholder instead — vendor the real SDK before loading).
+5. Zips the distributable: `zip -r <slug>-<version>.tpkg manifest.json extensions/ content/`, producing `<slug>-1.0.0.tpkg` next to the source dir.
+
+**Validation checklist before distributing** (from the tpkg-skill): `manifest.json` has `id`/`version`/`name`; each `.trex` has no `://` in a bundled `<url>`; no `../` traversal; no symlinks in the archive.

+# Year-over-Year and Performance Scope Date Comparisons
+
+Focused guidance for building year-over-year (YoY) and Performance Scope date comparisons, so Tableau users compare the intended periods instead of reading a misleading raw time series.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau user
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, validate
+- In-scope reason: Helps Claude build correct YoY and period-scope comparisons instead of a misleading single timeline when a user asks to compare years, current month, previous month, prior year, or YTD.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: dates, year-over-year, yoy, time-series, date-parts, month-alignment, period comparison, performance scope, current month, YTD
+- Expected agent behavior: When asked for YoY by month, build a month-aligned, year-separated overlay; when asked for Performance Scope-style comparisons, make the comparison scope explicit (CM vs PM, CM vs PY, CYTD vs PYTD) rather than defaulting to one raw continuous date timeline.
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "year over year", "YoY", "this year vs last year", "compare sales by month across years", "seasonal comparison", "current month vs previous month", "current month vs previous year", "CYTD vs PYTD", "performance scope"
+- Suggested golden task: Build YoY Sales by month, then build a Sales Performance Scope comparison with CM vs PM, CM vs PY, and CYTD vs PYTD from a workbook that has Order Date and Sales.
+- Safe refusal condition: n/a
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this guidance when a user wants to compare a measure (e.g., Sales) for the **same months across different years** - for example "this year vs last year" or a seasonal month-by-month comparison - or when they ask for a named period comparison such as current month vs previous month, current month vs previous year, or current YTD vs previous YTD.
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Tableau users building monthly time comparisons
+- Seasonal / period-over-period analysis
+- Dashboards with a YoY trend line or clustered bars by month
+- KPI or executive views that need explicit comparison-period semantics
+
+## Best Practices
+
+The defining idea of a YoY-by-month view: **split the date into a month part (for alignment) and a year part (for comparison)** — do not plot one continuous date.
+
+- **Month on the axis (Cols) for alignment.** Use the discrete Month date part (`MONTH([Order Date])`, column-instance `[mn:Order Date:nk]`) or a truncated month (`DATETRUNC('month', [Order Date])`, column-instance `[tmn:Order Date:qk]`). Truncated month keeps a true continuous axis while still aligning months when Year is the comparison dimension.
+- **Year on Color (or Detail/Path) for comparison.** Use the Year date part (`YEAR([Order Date])`, column-instance `[yr:Order Date:ok]`) so each year renders as its own comparable series.
+- **Aggregate the measure.** Put `SUM([Sales])` (column-instance `[sum:Sales:qk]`) on Rows.
+- **Optionally limit to the two most recent years** for "this year vs last year" (a relative date filter of the last 2 years) so the overlay stays readable.
+- **Validate the workbook XML** references a year derivation AND a month/truncated-month derivation of the date, plus the aggregated measure — not a lone continuous exact date.
+- **For Performance Scope-style requests, name the comparison scope.** Use clear labels or a parameter such as `Performance Scope` with values like `CM vs PM`, `CM vs PY`, and `CYTD vs PYTD`. Do not collapse these into a generic "Sales over time" chart.
+- **Anchor "current" explicitly.** In live authoring, use the user's stated reporting date or the latest date in the datasource as the current period. If neither is safe to infer, ask. In offline eval/demo tasks, follow the prompt's stated anchor.
+- **Separate current and comparison windows.** `CM vs PM` compares current-month sales to the previous month; `CM vs PY` compares current-month sales to the same month in the prior year; `CYTD vs PYTD` compares current year-to-date sales to the equivalent prior-year-to-date window.
+- **Show both value and delta.** For KPI cards or executive summaries, include the current value, comparison value, absolute delta, and/or percent delta so the selected scope is visible.
+- **Author the scope, do not defer it.** If the user asks you to build the Performance Scope comparison, the applied workbook should contain the `Performance Scope` selector or explicit calculated fields/labels for `CM vs PM`, `CM vs PY`, and `CYTD vs PYTD`. Do not merely say "you could add a parameter later."
+
+Confirmed-working worksheet shape (Sales by month, one line per year):
+
+```xml
+<worksheet name='YoY Sales by Month'>
+  <table>
+    <view>
+      <datasource-dependencies datasource='Sample'>
+        <column-instance name='[sum:Sales:qk]' column='[Sales]' derivation='Sum' pivot='key' type='quantitative' />
+        <column-instance name='[yr:Order Date:ok]' column='[Order Date]' derivation='Year' pivot='key' type='ordinal' />
+        <column-instance name='[mn:Order Date:nk]' column='[Order Date]' derivation='Month' pivot='key' type='nominal' />
+      </datasource-dependencies>
+    </view>
+    <panes>
+      <pane>
+        <mark class='Line' />
+        <encodings><color column='[Sample].[yr:Order Date:ok]' /></encodings>
+      </pane>
+    </panes>
+    <rows>[Sample].[sum:Sales:qk]</rows>
+    <cols>[Sample].[mn:Order Date:nk]</cols>
+  </table>
+</worksheet>
+```
+
+### What does NOT work
+
+A single raw continuous exact date (`[none:Order Date:qk]`, i.e. Order Date dropped as a continuous exact date) on Cols plots **one unbroken timeline across all years**. It does not overlay years, so a YoY comparison is impossible. This is the most common mistake on this task.
+
+For Performance Scope requests, a simple YoY-by-month overlay is also incomplete when the user asked for multiple comparison scopes. It may answer `CM vs PY`, but it does not answer `CM vs PM` or `CYTD vs PYTD` unless those windows are represented explicitly.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Single continuous exact-date timeline.** Putting a raw continuous `[Order Date]` on Cols produces one line spanning all years instead of a year overlay.
+2. **Year on the axis next to an exact date.** Double-encoding time (exact date + Year) breaks month alignment and clutters the axis.
+3. **Forgetting to aggregate.** Leaving Sales un-aggregated yields one mark per row instead of monthly totals.
+4. **Year on Color but exact date (not the Month part) on Cols.** The years won't align month-to-month, defeating the comparison.
+5. **Treating all period requests as YoY.** Current month vs previous month and current YTD vs previous YTD are not the same question as a month-by-month YoY overlay.
+6. **Hiding the selected comparison period.** If a KPI card shows a delta without the active scope label, users cannot tell whether they are seeing prior-month, prior-year, or YTD comparison.
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. Acknowledge the goal: compare the measure for the same months across years.
+2. Place a Month part (or truncated month) of the date on Cols for alignment.
+3. Place the Year part of the date on Color so each year is its own series.
+4. Place `SUM([Sales])` on Rows.
+5. (Optional) limit to the last two years for a clean "this year vs last year" read.
+6. Validate the applied workbook XML contains a year derivation, a month/truncated-month derivation, and the aggregated measure — and not a lone continuous exact date.
+
+For a Performance Scope-style KPI or worksheet:
+
+1. Define or represent a `Performance Scope` selector with the required values: `CM vs PM`, `CM vs PY`, and `CYTD vs PYTD`.
+2. Compute the current period and comparison period from the same date anchor.
+3. Aggregate the measure over each window.
+4. Display the active scope label alongside the current value and delta.
+5. If the user has not specified the reporting date and the latest datasource date is not safe to use, ask before authoring.
+
+Minimum acceptable workbook markers for a Performance Scope build:
+
+- A parameter or calculated field name/label containing `Performance Scope` or `Comparison Scope`.
+- Visible or calculated labels for all requested scopes: `CM vs PM`, `CM vs PY`, and `CYTD vs PYTD`.
+- Aggregated measure logic for the current period and the comparison period.
+
+## Related Knowledge
+
+- Extends [Marks, Encodings & Chart Configuration](data/knowledge/strategy/viz-design/encoding-strategy.md): that entry covers continuous vs discrete dates generally; this one is the specific YoY-by-month overlay pattern.
+- Relates to [Calculated Fields, Parameters & Table Calculations](data/knowledge/strategy/analytics/calc-fields-strategy.md): a Percent Difference table calc is an alternative way to express YoY once the year/month split is in place.

+# Workbook XML: Worksheets and Windows
+
+Confirmed patterns for creating worksheets programmatically, window entries, row height, and sheet hiding. All patterns validated via `get-workbook-xml` observation.
+
+---
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: create, troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Worksheets require correct table structure, window entries, datasource-dependencies placement, and incremental-add workflow to avoid silent sheet loss or metadata stripping.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: worksheet, window, view, datasource-dependencies, panes, rows, cols, column-instance, table-calc, trellis, small-multiples, index-partition, round-trip, hidden-worksheet, table-structure
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how do I create a new worksheet from scratch", "window entry required for worksheets", "sheet disappeared after submission", "worksheets silently dropped without window", "add sheets incrementally one at a time", "trellis small multiples INDEX partition calc", "partition calcs must be role measure type quantitative", "hide a worksheet used in dashboard", "delete worksheet via API", "table-calc ordering-type Field vs Rows", "add field to shelf without template", "manual worksheet build"
+
+## Complete worksheet structure
+
+A minimal but complete worksheet Tableau accepts:
+
+```xml
+<worksheet name="My Sheet">
+  <table>
+    <view>
+      <datasources>
+        <datasource name="Sample - Superstore" />
+      </datasources>
+      <datasource-dependencies datasource="Sample - Superstore">
+        <column name="[Sub-Category]" role="dimension" type="nominal" datatype="string" />
+        <column name="[Profit]" role="measure" type="quantitative" datatype="real" />
+        <column-instance name="[none:Sub-Category:nk]" column="[Sub-Category]"
+                         pivot="key" type="nominal" derivation="None" />
+        <column-instance name="[sum:Profit:qk]" column="[Profit]"
+                         pivot="key" type="quantitative" derivation="Sum" />
+      </datasource-dependencies>
+      <aggregation value="true" />
+    </view>
+    <style />
+    <panes>
+      <pane selection-relaxation-option="selection-relaxation-allow">
+        <view>
+          <breakdown value="auto" />
+        </view>
+        <mark class="Bar" />
+        <encodings>
+          <color column="[Sample - Superstore].[none:Category:nk]" />
+        </encodings>
+      </pane>
+    </panes>
+    <rows>[Sample - Superstore].[none:Sub-Category:nk]</rows>
+    <cols>[Sample - Superstore].[sum:Profit:qk]</cols>
+  </table>
+  <simple-id uuid="{GENERATE-UUID-HERE}" />
+</worksheet>
+```
+
+### Critical gotchas
+
+**Column defs and column-instances belong in `datasource-dependencies`**, NOT as children of the `datasource` node inside `datasources`. Putting them inside `datasources/datasource` causes them to be silently stripped on load.
+
+**Both `datasources` AND `datasource-dependencies` are required in `view`**: Omitting `datasources` causes all field references to be stripped — the sheet loads blank. Correct order inside `view`: `datasources` → `datasource-dependencies` → `aggregation`.
+
+**Window entry is REQUIRED**: Submitting a worksheet without a matching `window` entry causes it to be silently dropped by Tableau — the sheet will not appear at all. Always submit worksheet + window together in the same `apply-workbook` call.
+
+**Add sheets incrementally**: When adding multiple new worksheets, submit and verify each sheet one at a time rather than all at once. After each `apply-workbook` (even if it times out), use worksheet-list readback to confirm the sheet loaded before proceeding to the next.
+
+**Always use the latest workbook file**: Call `get-workbook-xml` immediately before any modification to get the current cached XML file path. Never re-use a path from earlier in the session — prior `apply-workbook` calls update the in-memory workbook state, and using a stale file will silently discard all intermediate changes (e.g. losing filters added in a previous step).
+
+---
+
+## Window entry for worksheets
+
+```xml
+<window name="My Sheet" class="worksheet">
+  <cards>
+    <edge name="left">
+      <strip size="160">
+        <card type="pages" />
+        <card type="filters" />
+        <card type="marks" />
+      </strip>
+    </edge>
+    <edge name="top">
+      <strip size="2147483647">
+        <card type="columns" />
+      </strip>
+      <strip size="2147483647">
+        <card type="rows" />
+      </strip>
+      <strip size="31">
+        <card type="title" />
+      </strip>
+    </edge>
+  </cards>
+  <simple-id uuid="{GENERATE-UUID-HERE}" />
+</window>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Worksheet row/cell height
+
+To set row height (equivalent to dragging in Tableau), add `style-rule[element=cell]` inside the **table-level `style`** node (sibling of `panes`, `view`):
+
+```xml
+<style>
+  <style-rule element="cell">
+    <format attr="height" value="207" />
+  </style-rule>
+</style>
+```
+
+`value` is in pixels as a string. Omit this node to let Tableau auto-size.
+
+---
+
+## Hiding worksheets
+
+Add `hidden="true"` to the **window** node (NOT the worksheet node itself):
+
+```xml
+<window name="Category Sales Over Time" class="worksheet" hidden="true">
+  ...
+</window>
+```
+
+Key points:
+- Only worksheets used in at least one dashboard can be hidden — standalone worksheets cannot
+- Dashboard windows (class `"dashboard"`) are not hidden this way
+- A hidden worksheet remains fully functional inside dashboards
+
+---
+
+## Deleting worksheets
+
+**`apply-workbook` can only ADD or UPDATE sheets. It cannot delete them by omission.** Use `delete-worksheet` for deletion.
+
+Tableau merges new content with existing internal state. Any sheet already in Tableau's memory persists even if omitted from the submitted XML.
+
+`delete-worksheet` calls Tableau's native `tabdoc:delete-sheet` command. If it fails, do not try to delete by submitting workbook XML without the worksheet; use Tableau Undo (`Cmd+Z`), File → Revert to Saved, or manually editing the saved `.twb` XML file.
+
+**Prevention:**
+- Dashboard creation can take >30 seconds and trigger a timeout error. Check workbook structure after a timeout — the dashboard may have been applied successfully despite the error
+- If `apply-workbook` times out on dashboard creation, do NOT retry immediately. Check sheet list first
+
+---
+
+## Adding worksheets to the workbook root (Python / ElementTree)
+
+Always navigate by tag, not by index — `mapsources` may be absent on workbooks without maps:
+
+```python
+import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
+
+tree = ET.parse("/path/to/cache/workbook-XXXX.xml")
+root = tree.getroot()  # <workbook>
+
+worksheets_node = root.find(".//worksheets")
+dashboards_node = root.find(".//dashboards")
+windows_node    = root.find(".//windows")
+
+worksheets_node.append(new_worksheet_elem)
+windows_node.append(new_window_elem)
+
+tree.write("/tmp/modified_workbook.xml", xml_declaration=True, encoding="utf-8")
+# Then call: apply-workbook({ workbook_file: "/tmp/modified_workbook.xml" })
+```
+
+**Workflow:**
+1. Call `get-workbook-xml` — returns `{ filePath, fileUrl }` pointing to a cached XML file
+2. Read and parse the XML with ElementTree
+3. Modify the element tree
+4. Write to `/tmp/modified_workbook.xml`
+5. Call `apply-workbook({ workbook_file: "/tmp/modified_workbook.xml" })`
+
+**Dashboards go in the `dashboards` node, NOT the `worksheets` node.** Adding a dashboard element to `worksheets` causes Tableau to crash immediately on load.
+
+---
+
+## Trellis / Small-Multiples chart
+
+A trellis creates an N×M grid of panels from a dimension using INDEX()-based table calcs. Confirmed working 2×2 trellis for 4 Regions (Sales vs Profit scatter with time-color and region label per panel).
+
+### Critical rules
+
+1. **Partition calcs must be `role="measure"` `type="quantitative"`** — NOT `role="dimension"` `type="ordinal"`. If declared as dimension, Tableau renders them as `AGG()` on the shelf and collapses all data into a single panel.
+2. **`<table-calc>` goes inside `<calculation>`** (as a child element), not directly on `<column>`.
+3. **CI `table-calc` uses `level-address`** (with fully-qualified datasource prefix), `ordering-type="Field"`, and **`<order>` children** listing both the partition field and the path/time field. Using `ordering-field` alone (without `<order>` children) does not work.
+4. **CI `type="ordinal"` with `:ok:N` suffix** — the `:N` number varies per calc; Tableau assigns it. Let Tableau assign it; don't guess.
+5. **No spaces around `*` in shelf syntax**: `([usr:Calc:ok:N]*[sum:Profit:qk])`.
+6. **`unnamed="SheetName"` attribute** on the column marks it as worksheet-scoped.
+
+### Column definition (partition calc)
+
+```xml
+<column caption="INT((INDEX()-1)/2)" datatype="integer"
+        name="[Calculation_4006329602715651]"
+        role="measure" type="quantitative"
+        unnamed="Regional Profit Paths 2x2">
+  <calculation class="tableau" formula="INT((INDEX()-1)/2)">
+    <table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>
+  </calculation>
+</column>
+
+<column caption="INDEX()%2" datatype="integer"
+        name="[Calculation_4006329602584578]"
+        role="measure" type="quantitative"
+        unnamed="Regional Profit Paths 2x2">
+  <calculation class="tableau" formula="INDEX()%2">
+    <table-calc ordering-type="Rows"/>
+  </calculation>
+</column>
+```
+
+### Column-instance definition (the critical part)
+
+```xml
+<column-instance column="[Calculation_4006329602715651]"
+                 derivation="User" name="[usr:Calculation_4006329602715651:ok:3]"
+                 pivot="key" type="ordinal">
+  <table-calc level-address="[Sample - Superstore].[Region]" ordering-type="Field">
+    <order field="[Sample - Superstore].[Region]"/>
+    <order field="[Sample - Superstore].[tmn:Order Date:qk]"/>
+  </table-calc>
+</column-instance>
+
+<column-instance column="[Calculation_4006329602584578]"
+                 derivation="User" name="[usr:Calculation_4006329602584578:ok:4]"
+                 pivot="key" type="ordinal">
+  <table-calc level-address="[Sample - Superstore].[Region]" ordering-type="Field">
+    <order field="[Sample - Superstore].[Region]"/>
+    <order field="[Sample - Superstore].[tmn:Order Date:qk]"/>
+  </table-calc>
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+### Shelves
+
+```xml
+<rows>([Sample - Superstore].[usr:Calculation_4006329602715651:ok:3]*[Sample - Superstore].[sum:Profit:qk])</rows>
+<cols>([Sample - Superstore].[usr:Calculation_4006329602584578:ok:4]*[Sample - Superstore].[sum:Sales:qk])</cols>
+```
+
+### Encodings for region label at range-max per panel
+
+```xml
+<encodings>
+  <color column="[Sample - Superstore].[tmn:Order Date:qk]"/>
+  <text column="[Sample - Superstore].[none:Region:nk]"/>
+  <lod column="[Sample - Superstore].[tmn:Order Date:qk]"/>
+  <lod column="[Sample - Superstore].[none:Region:nk]"/>
+</encodings>
+<style>
+  <style-rule element="mark">
+    <format attr="mark-labels-mode" value="range"/>
+    <format attr="mark-labels-show" value="true"/>
+    <format attr="mark-labels-cull" value="true"/>
+    <format attr="mark-labels-range-min" value="false"/>
+    <format attr="mark-labels-range-scope" value="pane"/>
+    <format attr="mark-labels-range-field" value="[Sample - Superstore].[tmn:Order Date:qk]"/>
+  </style-rule>
+</style>
+```
+
+`mark-labels-mode="range"` with `mark-labels-range-scope="pane"` shows the region name only at the point where the time field reaches its max within each panel — clean and uncluttered.
+
+### Style (table-level)
+
+```xml
+<style-rule element="label">
+  <!-- hides the 0/1 axis tick numbers for the partition calc fields -->
+  <format attr="display" field="[Sample - Superstore].[usr:Calculation_...:ok:3]" value="false"/>
+  <format attr="display" field="[Sample - Superstore].[usr:Calculation_...:ok:4]" value="false"/>
+</style-rule>
+<style-rule element="worksheet">
+  <format attr="display-field-labels" scope="cols" value="false"/>
+</style-rule>
+<style-rule element="gridline">
+  <format attr="line-visibility" value="off"/>
+</style-rule>
+<style-rule element="table-div">
+  <format attr="stroke-color" scope="cols" value="#d0d0d0"/>
+</style-rule>
+```
+
+### What does NOT work
+
+- `role="dimension"` `type="ordinal"` on partition columns → Tableau renders as `AGG()` on shelf, one panel only
+- `ordering-field="[DS].[Region]"` without `<order>` children on the CI → partition doesn't address correctly
+- String IF calc partitions (e.g. `IF [Region] = 'East' THEN 'Group A'`) → Tableau normalizes them but they don't partition as expected
+- `mark-labels-mode="most-recent"` for scatter/circle marks → does not show labels reliably; use `"range"` instead
+- Missing both `lod=Region` and `lod=Date` in encodings → region label at range max won't render
+
+---
+
+## `list-available-fields` for datasource inspection
+
+Use `list-available-fields` (with the `workbook_file` param from `get-workbook-xml`) to enumerate all fields from datasource definitions. This replaces the old `get_connected_datasources` tool.
+
+The old `get_connected_datasources` had a known limitation — it only exposed datasources connected to dashboard worksheets via the Extensions API, missing standalone worksheets. `list-available-fields` reads directly from the workbook XML and is more reliable.
+
+---
+
+## Round-trip rules: what survives `apply-workbook`
+
+> **Note:** The "stripped" list below was observed with the old `loadMetadataFromXml` extension approach. The new Agent API (`apply-workbook`) uses a different endpoint and may have different round-trip behavior. The **structural rules** (window entry required, node ordering, etc.) still apply. Verify specific structures against real workbook output when in doubt.
+
+### Preserved (confirmed with old extension approach; likely still applies)
+- Datasource `column` nodes (calculated fields)
+- `datasource-dependencies` (column + column-instance nodes)
+- `pane > mark` (class attribute — mark type)
+- **`pane > encodings > color/text/size/shape/lod/tooltip`** — pane-level encodings
+- `rows` / `cols` content
+- `table-calc` children inside column-instances in `datasource-dependencies`
+- `view > sort` and `view > computed-sort`
+- `view > filter` with `context="true"` (context filters)
+- Categorical filters (`function="union"` + `function="member"`)
+
+### Stripped silently (observed with old extension approach; verify with Agent API)
+- **Mark-level encodings** (`pane > view > mark > encoding`) — use `pane > encodings` instead
+- **Worksheet-level `table-calculations` section** — put table-calc config in column-instance children
+- **Sort nodes inside column definitions** in datasource-dependencies — use view-level sort
+- **`shelf-sort-deltas`** at the table level
+- **Top N filters authored as a FLAT `function="filter"` groupfilter** — stripped. Two working forms exist: the confirmed NESTED recipe (`function="end"` → `order` → `level-members` + matching `<slices>` entry — see `tactics/viz/filters.md`, Top N section), or a table calc filter (INDEX() on Rows + quantitative range filter; see `workbook-calcs` for the per-partition pattern). Preflight rule `malformed-top-n-filter` blocks the flat shape.
+
+### Table calculation config (Compute Using)
+
+Table calcs need a `table-calc` child inside the **column-instance** in `datasource-dependencies`. The column-instance name uses a `:N` suffix (`:1`, `:2`, `:4` — varies, don't assume) and `usr:` derivation prefix:
+
+```xml
+<column-instance name="[usr:Calculation_20260306190005:qk:2]"
+                 column="[Calculation_20260306190005]"
+                 pivot="key" type="quantitative" derivation="User">
+  <table-calc ordering-type="Field"
+              ordering-field="[DatasourceName].[Sub-Category]" />
+</column-instance>
+```
+
+`ordering-type` values:
+- `"Rows"` → Compute Using: Table (Down)
+- `"Field"` + `ordering-field` → Compute Using: specific field
+- `"Field"` + `level-address` → Specific Dimensions mode ("At the level"): `"[Sample - Superstore].[none:Sub-Category:nk]"`
+
+---
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this module when you need to:
+
+- **Create a new worksheet** from scratch or by cloning an existing one
+- Understand the **required worksheet XML structure** (`view`, `datasource-dependencies`, `panes`, `rows`/`cols`)
+- Add or configure a **window entry** for a worksheet
+- **Hide a worksheet** that is used in a dashboard but shouldn't appear as a tab
+- Understand **what can and cannot be deleted** via the API
+- Build a **trellis / small-multiples** chart using INDEX()-based partition calcs
+- Inspect datasource fields with **`list-available-fields`**
+- Understand **round-trip behavior** — which XML nodes survive `apply-workbook` and which are stripped
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Always submit worksheet + window together**: Submitting a `<worksheet>` without a matching `<window>` causes the sheet to be silently dropped by Tableau.
+- **Add sheets incrementally**: Submit and verify each sheet with worksheet-list readback before adding the next. After an `apply-workbook` timeout, check first — the sheet may have loaded despite the error.
+- **Always call `get-workbook-xml` immediately before modifying**: Never reuse a cached file path from earlier in the session. Prior `apply-workbook` calls update the in-memory workbook state.
+- **Put column defs and column-instances in `datasource-dependencies`**, not inside the `datasources/datasource` node inside `view`. Putting them in the wrong place causes them to be silently stripped.
+- **Both `datasources` AND `datasource-dependencies` are required in `view`**: Omitting `datasources` causes all field references to be stripped — the sheet loads blank.
+- **Trellis partition calcs must be `role="measure"` `type="quantitative"`**: Declaring them as `role="dimension"` causes Tableau to render them as `AGG()` and collapse all panels into one.

+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Column defs in the wrong place**: Putting `column` and `column-instance` nodes inside `view > datasources > datasource` instead of inside `view > datasource-dependencies`. These must be in `datasource-dependencies`.
+2. **Omitting the window entry**: This is the most common cause of "sheet disappeared after submission." The `<window>` node in `<windows>` is required — without it, the worksheet is silently dropped.
+3. **Using a stale cached file path**: Each `apply-workbook` updates the in-memory workbook. Always call `get-workbook-xml` to get the fresh path before the next modification. Using a stale path silently discards all intermediate changes.
+4. **Attempting to delete sheets via API**: `apply-workbook` merges new content with existing state — it cannot delete sheets. Sheets present in Tableau's memory persist even if omitted from the submitted XML. Use Undo (`Cmd+Z`) or File → Revert to Saved to recover.
+5. **Wrong `table-calc` placement**: The `table-calc` node goes inside the **column-instance** in `datasource-dependencies` — not inside the column def's `calculation` child (unless it's an INDEX() calc configured at the column level).
+6. **Hiding a standalone worksheet**: Only worksheets used in at least one dashboard can be hidden via `hidden="true"` on the window node. Trying to hide a standalone worksheet has no effect.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+To create a complete new worksheet:
+
+1. **Get the current workbook**: Call `get-workbook-xml` for the current cached XML path and to understand what datasources exist.
+2. **Identify the datasource ID**: Use `list-available-fields` to get the datasource name (`federated.XXXX`) and enumerate available fields.
+3. **Build the `<worksheet>` element**: Include `table > view > datasources` (reference datasource by ID) + `datasource-dependencies` (column defs + CIs for all fields used) + `aggregation`. Add `panes > pane > mark` for mark type and `pane > encodings` for visual channels. Add `rows` and `cols` content.
+4. **Build the `<window>` element**: Use the same `name` as the worksheet. Include `simple-id` with a freshly generated UUID.
+5. **Append both nodes**: add worksheet to `<worksheets>` and window to `<windows>`.
+6. **Submit**: Write to `/tmp/modified_workbook.xml` and call `apply-workbook({ workbook_file: "/tmp/modified_workbook.xml" })`.
+7. **Verify**: Use worksheet-list readback — the new sheet should appear in the tab list.
+
+For table calculations: after the sheet loads, manually configure Compute Using in Tableau's UI, then call `get-workbook-xml` to capture the exact CI name with the correct `:N` suffix. Use that as the authoritative template for subsequent API calls.

+# Do Not Guess execute_tableau_command Names (Retired → Enforced in Code)
+
+> **Retired knowledge entry.** The load-bearing behavior once documented here is now enforced at the tool boundary in `src/server/command-registry.ts` (verb-allowlist + crash-prone-command guard). This file is kept as a short pointer so retrieval and the `_index.md` map still resolve. The residual, prompt-level behavior that code cannot enforce is tracked as a proposed core update — see `docs/proposed-core-updates/never-guess-command-names.md`.
+
+## When to Use
+
+You rarely need this entry directly. Read the enforcement site (`src/server/command-registry.ts`) when reviewing why an `execute_tableau_command` call was rejected. For the agent-behavior guidance (treat `search_commands` as authoritative; never guess a command name), see the proposed core update linked above.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Treat `search_commands` as authoritative: if a command name is not returned, it is not available via MCP. Do not infer `tabui:` / `tabdoc:` names from Tableau menu labels.
+- Let the command registry reject unknown or crash-prone verbs; do not work around a rejection by trying name variants.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- Inferring command names from Tableau menu paths and calling them directly — this historically crashed the Desktop session and destroyed unsaved work (some menu items invoke native OS save dialogs that block the main UI thread when called headlessly).
+- Retrying multiple plausible name variants after a rejection instead of stopping and offering the user a supported alternative.
+
+## Implementation
+
+The guard lives in `src/server/command-registry.ts` (verb-allowlist + crash-prone-command guard); no knowledge-side action is required. The prompt-level "never guess a command name / offer a supported alternative" behavior is not enforceable in code and is captured in `docs/proposed-core-updates/never-guess-command-names.md`.

+# Exporting a Full-Canvas Dashboard Image from the Tableau Agent API
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau User
+- Authoring outcome improved: Agent can capture a full-canvas screenshot of a composed dashboard (all zones, layout, text objects, and embedded sheets) to visually verify what it built and check whether the dashboard surfaces a valuable insight from the underlying data.
+- In-scope reason: Covers the confirmed Tableau Agent API command for headless dashboard image export during workbook authoring.
+- Out-of-scope risk: The screenshot contains actual rendered data values, not just workbook metadata — tell the user when a screenshot is being taken and where the file will be saved.
+- Tags: screenshot, export, image, dashboard, agent-api, tabdoc, verify, visual-verification
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how do I export a dashboard as an image", "take a screenshot of a full dashboard", "confirm dashboard layout looks right", "dashboard image includes actual data values", "navigate to dashboard before exporting", "export-dashboard-image returns blank canvas", "tell user before taking screenshot", "visual verification of composed dashboard"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this after applying a dashboard — for example after `build-and-apply-dashboard` — when you want to confirm the composed layout looks right or check whether the dashboard reveals a meaningful insight in the data.
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Any Tableau user working with the Tableau Desktop Agent API
+- Dashboard-level views (for individual worksheets, use the worksheet export pattern instead — see Related Knowledge)
+- macOS (confirmed); Windows path behavior not verified
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Use this command to verify the full composed dashboard after applying it — not just individual sheets.
+- Tell the user what you are doing before taking the screenshot. The file is written to disk and contains actual rendered data values from the connected source.
+- Use an absolute file path you control. On macOS, `/private/tmp/` is a confirmed working location.
+- Delete or disregard the temp file once verification is done — it is not part of the workbook and is not cleaned up automatically.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Do not use this for worksheet-level views — use the worksheet export pattern instead. Do not export a dashboard image if the user has indicated the underlying data is sensitive and should not be written to disk outside the workbook.
+
+Before exporting, say something like:
+
+> "I'm going to take a screenshot of this dashboard to check whether it looks right. The image will include the actual data values from your connected source and will be saved temporarily to your local disk. Let me know if you'd prefer I skip this step."
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **Using this command for worksheets.** Use `tabdoc:export-worksheet-image` (with `get-export-image-layout-options` prefetch) for individual worksheet views.
+- **Assuming the file path is fixed.** Always pass an explicit absolute path as `file-name`. On macOS, `/private/tmp/` is confirmed. Other OS paths have not been verified.
+- **Exporting without navigating first.** If Tableau Desktop is not currently showing the dashboard, `tabdoc:export-dashboard-image` returns an empty `{}` but the output file is blank (white canvas). Always call `activate-sheet` to navigate to the dashboard before exporting; raw `tabdoc:goto-sheet` is refused at the execute boundary.
+
+## Implementation
+
+Two-step — navigate first, then export:
+
+**Step 1: Navigate to the dashboard**
+```
+activate-sheet
+  sheetName: "Dashboard 1"   ← plain dashboard name string
+```
+
+**Step 2: Export the image**
+```
+tabdoc:export-dashboard-image
+  file-name: "/private/tmp/my-dashboard.png"   ← absolute path; adjust for OS
+  mime-type: "image/png"
+  dashboard: "Dashboard 1"                      ← plain dashboard name string
+```
+
+A successful call returns an empty `{}` result. The file is then readable from the path you specified.
+
+**What the output includes:** the full composed dashboard canvas — all zones, layout, text objects, sheet titles, embedded worksheet views, and any dashboard title.
+
+**OS note:** On macOS, `/private/tmp/` is the confirmed working location. Windows and Linux have not been verified — use a known writable absolute path.

+# Exporting a Full-Canvas Worksheet Image from the Tableau Agent API
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau User
+- Authoring outcome improved: Agent can capture a full-canvas screenshot of a worksheet (including axes, labels, title, and caption) to visually verify the viz it just built — and to check whether the viz surfaces a valuable insight from the underlying data.
+- In-scope reason: Covers a Tableau Agent API command pattern used during workbook authoring to validate viz output.
+- Out-of-scope risk: Not a general screenshotting tool. The screenshot contains actual rendered data values, not just workbook metadata — see When to Say No.
+- Tags: screenshot, export, image, worksheet, agent-api, tabdoc, verify, visual-verification
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how do I export a worksheet as an image", "take a screenshot of a viz", "prefetch layout options before export", "worksheet image includes axes and labels", "confirm viz looks right after apply", "visual verification of rendered output", "export includes actual data values", "get-export-image-layout-options required first"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this after applying a worksheet change via the agent — for example after adding fields to rows/columns — when you want to confirm the viz looks right or check whether it reveals a meaningful insight in the data.
+
+This applies to:
+
+- Any Tableau user working with the Tableau Desktop Agent API
+- Worksheet-level views (for dashboards, use the dashboard export pattern instead — see Related Knowledge)
+- macOS and Windows (file output path varies by OS — see Implementation)
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Always prefetch the layout options object before calling the export command — it is a required parameter and cannot be constructed by hand.
+- Use this to do a quick sanity check on the rendered output after each `apply-worksheet` call, especially when building a new viz from scratch.
+- Tell the user what you are doing before taking the screenshot — the file is written to a temp location on disk and contains actual rendered data values, not just workbook structure.
+- Delete or disregard the temp file once the verification is done; it is not part of the workbook and is not cleaned up automatically.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Unlike reading workbook XML (which only exposes metadata and field names), a full-canvas screenshot captures the actual data values rendered in the viz and writes them to a file on the local disk outside the workbook itself. This is a meaningful step up in data exposure.
+
+For most scenarios the user has already consented to this by connecting to the data in the first place. However, proceed with transparency:
+
+> "I'm going to take a screenshot of this worksheet to check whether it looks right. The image will include the actual data values from your connected source and will be saved temporarily to your local disk. Let me know if you'd prefer I skip this step."
+
+Do not use this command if the user has indicated the underlying data is sensitive and should not be written to disk outside the workbook.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **Omitting the prefetch step.** `export-image-layout-options` is required and must be fetched first — always run Step 1 before Step 2.
+- **Assuming the file path is fixed.** Always use an explicit `file-name` argument with an absolute path you control. On macOS, `/private/tmp` is confirmed; other OS paths have not been verified.
+
+## Implementation
+
+Two-step process — the second call depends on the first:
+
+**Step 1 — Fetch the layout options:**
+
+```
+tabdoc:get-export-image-layout-options
+  worksheet: "Sheet 1"   ← name of the worksheet to export
+```
+
+This returns an `exportImageLayoutOptions` object. Copy it exactly as returned.
+
+**Step 2 — Export the image:**
+
+```
+tabdoc:export-worksheet-image
+  file-name: "/private/tmp/my-chart.png"   ← absolute path; adjust for OS
+  mime-type: "image/png"
+  export-image-layout-options: <object from Step 1>
+  worksheet: "Sheet 1"
+```
+
+A successful call returns an empty `{}` result. The file is then readable from the path you specified.
+
+**What the output includes:** title, row/column headers (dimension labels), axes with tick marks, marks (bars, lines, etc.), and the automatic caption ("Sum of Sales for each Category" style). Legends are included if present.
+
+**OS note:** On macOS, `/private/tmp` is the confirmed working location. Windows and Linux paths have not been verified — use a known writable absolute path.

+# Recovering From "Not Found" and Honoring the Verification Receipt
+
+Two failure-mode rules for live Tableau Desktop authoring: treat a field or datasource "not found" as a stale cache (refresh with a live session first), and never claim success that contradicts the HOST VERIFICATION receipt.
+
+These two rules cover the moments an agent is most tempted to report the wrong thing: giving up ("Tableau is unreachable / the field is gone") on a cache that simply went stale, and declaring "done" over evidence that the change did not survive. Both failures are avoidable with one extra read.
+
+## When to Use
+
+- **A field or datasource lookup returns `not_found`** (from `resolve-field`, `list-available-fields`, or a field tool), *especially* right after the user changed the workbook — connected a new data source, renamed a field, swapped an extract, or added a sheet in Tableau.
+- **You are about to report a change is finished** after any apply-style call (`apply-worksheet`, `apply-workbook`, `apply-dashboard`, `apply-dashboard-with-viewpoints`, `build-and-apply-dashboard`, `dashboard-auto-apply`). Read the `HOST VERIFICATION` line *before* you narrate success.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Rule 1 — "Not found" is usually a stale cache, not an unreachable Tableau
+
+The cache file you hold (`workbookFile`) is a snapshot from an earlier `get-workbook-xml`. If the user changed the workbook after that snapshot, a lookup against the stale file will miss the new field — but Tableau is fine.
+
+- Before concluding anything is unreachable or missing, **refresh from the live session**:
+  - `list-available-fields` with a `session` argument refreshes the live workbook into the cache file *first*, then lists (its own error text: "Retry without session to read the cache as-is."). This is the self-healing path.
+  - Or re-run `get-workbook-xml` (with `session`) to write a fresh cache file, then re-run `list-available-fields` / `resolve-field` against that new file.
+- **`resolve-field` does NOT refresh** — it only reads the `workbookFile` you pass. After a refresh, point it at the freshly-refreshed cache file.
+- **Know when to stop.** If, *after a genuine refresh*, `resolve-field` still returns `kind: "not_found"` (or `list-available-fields` still omits it), the field genuinely does not exist in the current workbook. Stop re-reading caches — resolve the ambiguity with the user or report the field is absent. Do not spiral.
+
+### Rule 2 — Honor the `HOST VERIFICATION` receipt before claiming success
+
+Apply-style tool results end with a host-computed receipt line derived from what the server actually measured (validation preflight + structural readback), not from anything the model asserts:
+
+```
+HOST VERIFICATION — <status>: <checks> . <claim guard>
+```
+
+- `status` is one of **`verified`**, **`unverified`**, **`failed`**. **`verified` is the only status that backs a "done" claim.**
+- Worksheet applies get a real structural readback, so they can reach `verified`. **Whole-workbook and dashboard applies are `unverified` by construction** — there is no structural readback for them yet, so the receipt says so plainly.
+- If the receipt says `unverified` or `failed` for something you claimed — a sort, a filter, an encoding, or the change as a whole — **re-read the artifact and correct your answer before reporting completion**: `get-worksheet-xml` for a sheet, `get-dashboard-xml` for a dashboard, `get-workbook-xml` for the whole workbook (or worksheet-list readback / `check-for-user-changes` to confirm survival).
+- Never report success that contradicts the receipt. Report only the evidence the host gives you.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+What does **NOT** work:
+
+- **Declaring "Tableau is unreachable" or "that datasource is gone" on the first `not_found`** without a session refresh. The far more common cause is a stale cache from before the user's change.
+- **Re-reading the same stale cache repeatedly** — calling `resolve-field` again against an un-refreshed `workbookFile` and expecting a different answer. `resolve-field` reads the file as-is; nothing changes until you refresh the file.
+- **Narrating success over a failed/unverified receipt** — e.g. answering "Done — sorted descending and filtered to Top 10" when the line reads `HOST VERIFICATION — failed: … readback FAILED (nodes dropped).` The nodes were dropped; the claim is false.
+- **Treating a whole-workbook or dashboard `unverified` receipt as confirmation.** `unverified` means "not re-verified," not "verified." Read the sheet back before claiming the intent landed.
+- **Inventing problems that nothing measured** when the receipt is `verified` — the guard text explicitly says not to report unlisted issues.
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Confirmed-working: stale-cache re-read sequence
+
+User connects a new "Targets (Excel)" data source in Tableau, then asks to put `[Target]` on the view. The agent still holds a `workbookFile` cached before that connection:
+
+```
+1. resolve-field({ workbookFile: <pre-change cache>, query: "Target" })
+   → { resolution: { kind: "not_found" }, isError: true }        # stale cache — do NOT conclude "unreachable"
+
+2. list-available-fields({ session: "inst-1", workbookFile: <same cache path> })
+   → refreshes the LIVE workbook into that cache file, then lists → [Target] now appears
+
+3. resolve-field({ workbookFile: <same cache, now refreshed>, query: "Target" })
+   → { resolution: { kind: "exact", column_ref: "[Targets (Excel)].[sum:Target:qk]" }, isError: false }
+```
+
+Equivalent refresh via a fresh snapshot: `get-workbook-xml({ session: "inst-1" })` → new cache file → `list-available-fields`/`resolve-field` against the new file. If step 3 *still* returns `not_found` after a real refresh, the field does not exist — stop and ask.
+
+### Confirmed-working: receipt-contradiction correction
+
+```
+apply-worksheet({ ... }) →
+  "Applied worksheet 'Sales by Region'.
+
+   HOST VERIFICATION — failed: preflight clean · apply completed · readback FAILED (nodes dropped).
+   Do not claim the change is confirmed; report only the evidence above."
+```
+
+- **Wrong:** "Done — I sorted by Sales descending and filtered to Top 10." (contradicts `failed`)
+- **Right:** the receipt says nodes were dropped, so re-read and correct before reporting:
+
+```
+1. get-worksheet-xml({ session, worksheet: "Sales by Region", mode: "file" })   # inspect what actually survived
+2. patch the specific dropped construct (the sort / filter node), then re-apply
+3. apply-worksheet(...) → HOST VERIFICATION — verified: … readback clean.       # only NOW report "done"
+```
+
+For a whole-workbook or dashboard apply, the receipt is `unverified` by design:
+
+```
+HOST VERIFICATION — unverified: preflight clean · apply completed · full workbook intent NOT re-verified.
+Treat sheet-level state as unconfirmed until read back; do not report problems without host evidence.
+```
+
+Read the affected sheets back (`get-worksheet-xml` / worksheet-list readback) before claiming the intent landed; report the apply as completed-but-unverified until you have that evidence.

+## Duplicate and modify a worksheet

+ET.register_namespace('user', USER_NS)
+
+WORKBOOK_FILE = 'cache/workbook-XXXX.xml'
+OUTPUT_FILE   = '/tmp/modified_workbook.xml'
+SOURCE_SHEET  = 'Monthly Sales'
+NEW_SHEET     = 'Monthly Sales - Line'
+
+tree = ET.parse(WORKBOOK_FILE)
+root = tree.getroot()
+
+# Find source worksheet and window
+source_ws  = root.find(f"worksheets/worksheet[@name='{SOURCE_SHEET}']")
+source_win = root.find(f"windows/window[@name='{SOURCE_SHEET}']")
+
+# Deep clone
+new_ws  = copy.deepcopy(source_ws)
+new_win = copy.deepcopy(source_win)
+
+# Rename
+new_ws.set('name',  NEW_SHEET)
+new_win.set('name', NEW_SHEET)
+
+# Patch mark type to Line (was Bar)
+mark_el = new_ws.find('table/panes/pane/mark')
+if mark_el is not None:
+    mark_el.set('class', 'Line')
+
+# Append to tree
+root.find('worksheets').append(new_ws)
+root.find('windows').append(new_win)
+
+tree.write(OUTPUT_FILE, encoding='utf-8', xml_declaration=True)
+print(f"Created '{NEW_SHEET}' as clone of '{SOURCE_SHEET}' with Line mark type")
+# Then: apply-workbook({ workbook_file: "/tmp/modified_workbook.xml" })
+```
+
+**Typical things to patch between variants:** `<mark class>`, `<rows>`/`<cols>` text content, filter member values, encoding columns. Everything else (datasource-dependencies, column-instances, computed-sort) can stay identical.

+
+print()
+print('=== WINDOWS ===')
+for w in root.find('windows'):
+    print(f'  {w.get("name","")}  class={w.get("class","")}')
+```
+
+---
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this module when you need to:
+
+- **Write Python scripts** to modify Tableau workbook XML (add fields, worksheets, filters, dashboards)
+- Get a **ready-to-use namespace setup** for round-trip-safe `user:` attribute handling
+- **Clone/duplicate a worksheet** as a starting point for a similar chart
+- **Add a calculated field** to a datasource via Python
+- **Add a categorical filter** to a worksheet via Python
+- **Inspect datasource fields** programmatically (dimensions, measures, calculated fields)
+- Use **structural helpers** (`find_datasource`, `find_worksheet`, `find_window`) to navigate the XML tree
+
+For column-instances, filters, and encodings, see `workbook-worksheets.md`, `workbook-filters.md`, `workbook-encodings.md`.
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Always call `get-workbook-xml` immediately before any modification**: The cached file path changes after each `apply-workbook` call. Using a stale path will silently overwrite all intermediate changes.
+- **Always register the `user:` namespace prefix** before writing XML: `ET.register_namespace('user', USER_NS)`. Without it, `user:ui-marker` attrs are written in Clark notation and Tableau rejects the file.
+- **Save to `/tmp/modified_workbook.xml`** and submit via `apply-workbook({ workbook_file: "/tmp/modified_workbook.xml" })`. Never submit the cache file directly.
+- **Submit incrementally**: Add one worksheet at a time and verify with worksheet-list readback before adding the next. Submitting many changes at once makes it difficult to isolate failures.
+- **Use `copy.deepcopy` when cloning worksheets**: Shallow copies share child element references — mutations affect both the original and the clone.
+
+---
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Forgetting the `window` entry**: Every new worksheet needs both a `<worksheet>` node in `<worksheets>` AND a `<window>` node in `<windows>`. Omitting the window causes the sheet to be silently dropped.
+2. **Re-using a stale cached file path**: Each `apply-workbook` updates the workbook state. Always call `get-workbook-xml` to get the fresh path before the next modification.
+3. **Not generating a new UUID for cloned windows**: When cloning a worksheet + window, always generate a new UUID for the window's `simple-id` node. Duplicate UUIDs cause Tableau to silently drop one of the windows.
+4. **Setting `user:` attributes without the namespace registration**: Without `ET.register_namespace('user', USER_NS)`, the attribute is written as `{http://...}ui-marker` in Clark notation, which Tableau does not accept.
+5. **Navigating by index instead of by attribute**: The element order inside `worksheets`, `windows`, and `datasources` is not guaranteed. Always find elements by name attribute, not by positional index.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+The standard Python workflow for any workbook modification:
+
+1. Call `get-workbook-xml` — returns `{ filePath, fileUrl }` pointing to the current cached XML file.
+2. Parse the XML: `tree = ET.parse(WORKBOOK_FILE); root = tree.getroot()`.
+3. Navigate to the target node using the helper functions (`find_datasource`, `find_worksheet`, `find_window`) or XPath.
+4. Apply the modification (add column, create worksheet, inject filter, etc.).
+5. Write the modified tree: `tree.write('/tmp/modified_workbook.xml', encoding='utf-8', xml_declaration=True)`.
+6. Submit: `apply-workbook({ workbook_file: "/tmp/modified_workbook.xml" })`.
+7. Verify with worksheet-list readback or `get-workbook-xml`.
+
+See the complete templates in the sections above for each specific operation.

+# Recovery from Failed Workbook Applies
+
+## Scope Check
+
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE authoring XML
+- Authoring outcome improved: troubleshoot
+- In-scope reason: Recovery guidance helps Claude detect apply failures, distinguish real errors from Data-pane metadata lag, use undo or rollback snapshots, and verify post-apply state correctly.
+- Out-of-scope risk: none
+- Tags: recovery, undo, rollback, apply-failure, snapshot, error-dialog, logs, data-pane-warning, metadata-resolution, post-apply-verification, silent-failure, apply-history
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "how do I recover from a failed apply", "workbook changes silently dropped", "Tableau shows error dialog after apply", "undo the most recent apply", "rollback to prior known-good state", "where are Tableau Desktop logs", "Data pane shows invalid datasources warning", "apply succeeded but Data pane not updated", "force metadata catch-up after apply", "post-apply verification with list-available-fields"
+
+## When to Use
+
+After an `apply-workbook` or `apply-worksheet` call fails, silently drops changes, or leaves Tableau Desktop in an error state. For file-based workbook document applies, the MCP server handles the required XML→JSON conversion automatically.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Apply history is automatic (not pre-apply protection)
+
+The MCP server automatically saves the XML from every **successful** `apply-workbook` call. Snapshots are stored at:
+
+```
+/tmp/tableau-mcp-rollback/<session-id>/workbook-<timestamp>.xml
+```
+
+The server keeps the last 5 snapshots per session. These are **post-apply** snapshots — they contain the state that was just successfully applied, not the state before that apply. Key limitations:
+
+- They **cannot** protect against a hard crash during the current apply (the crash prevents the snapshot from being saved)
+- They **cannot** restore state if no prior successful apply occurred in the session
+- They are useful for rolling back to a known-good state from N applies ago
+
+For reversing the **most recent** apply, use `tabdoc:undo` instead — it is faster and does not require a file apply.
+
+### Detect failures
+
+The Agent API may report `status: "completed"` even when Tableau shows a GUI error dialog. Use this escalation ladder:
+
+1. **Verify via MCP tools first.** After every apply, use worksheet-list readback or `activate-sheet` to confirm the expected sheets exist. Raw `tabdoc:goto-sheet` is refused at the execute boundary because a bad sheet value can open a blocking Desktop dialog. If a sheet you just added is missing, the apply was silently rejected.
+
+2. **Check MCP server logs.** Look for `exec_command_failed`, `fetch failed`, or `Command timed out` entries. These indicate the apply never reached Tableau or was rejected at the API level.
+
+3. **Check Tableau Desktop logs.** The session manager resolves the Tableau repository path on session create (via `tabdoc:get-app-config` with `app-config-enum: "repository-dir"`). The logs directory is at `<repositoryDir>/Logs/`. Key files:
+   - `log.txt` — main application log (most recent; look for `InformationBox` entries or `Command failed` warnings)
+   - `log_1.txt` through `log_N.txt` — rotated logs (check if multiple instances are running)
+
+   Search for `"not in a recognizable format"`, `CommandSystemInputsException`, or `Command failed` near the timestamp of the apply attempt. If multiple Tableau Desktop instances are open, each writes to its own set of log files — check the most recent files first and match the PID from your session.
+
+4. **Check the screen (if screen-vision MCP is configured).** Use `get_window_list` to look for Tableau dialog windows — Qt-based modal dialogs are reported to the OS window manager. If a dialog is found, capture it to understand the error.
+
+5. **Ask the user.** If you can't determine the error programmatically, ask the user to dismiss any modal dialogs and describe what they see. This is always valid and often fastest.
+
+### Diagnose external-API write failures by error class before retrying
+
+Calibrated live via `execute-tableau-command` (2026-07-19): different failure shapes mean different things, so classify before retrying blindly.
+
+- **HTTP 404 `command-not-found`** — the command name is wrong. Fix the name (see `expertise://tableau/tactics/workflow/execute-command-crash-risk` — never guess a command name); do not retry the same call.
+- **HTTP 400 `invalid-request-body`** — the request envelope shape is wrong, not the underlying intent. Check the parameter contract before changing approach.
+- **HTTP 500 on a write whose payload has a documented contract** (a fabricated or forbidden field/parameter) — the payload violates that contract. Re-read the relevant authoring module and rebuild the payload; one corrected retry is cheaper than abandoning the approach on the first 500.
+- **`{"type":"unknown","error":{}}` on writes while reads still succeed** — the app is dying or modally blocked, not your command. Stop retrying. Check once whether reads still answer; if reads fail too, the Desktop process is gone — tell the user the connection is down rather than pretending to build.
+
+### Distinguish a real failure from a Data-pane warning lag
+
+Not every "invalid" warning visible to the user means the apply actually failed. Tableau's Data pane is backed by a metadata-resolution service that runs asynchronously from the apply call. A short "invalid datasources" flash can appear in the Data pane after an apply that:
+
+- **Introduces a multi-level calc dependency chain** (e.g. a calc that references a calc that references a calc — 3+ levels deep). Tableau has to walk and resolve the whole chain before the Data pane reflects green.
+- **Bumps a `document-format-change-manifest` feature marker** (e.g. `ObjectModelRelationshipPerfOptions`, `SetMembershipControl`). These markers can fire the metadata service to re-evaluate against a newly-enabled evaluation mode.
+- **Adds many calc fields simultaneously** on a datasource that also has a complex `<object-graph>` (native multi-table model) — the relationship graph + calc graph have to be reconciled together.
+
+In every case the Agent API apply call has *already* returned success before the warning appears in the UI.
+
+**Authoritative check (not the Data pane):**
+```
+list-available-fields workbook_file=<post-apply snapshot>
+```
+If the new fields appear in the returned list with correct `type`/`role`, the apply succeeded. The Data pane will catch up on the next view evaluation.
+
+**Force the catch-up (don't rollback):**
+```
+activate-sheet
+  sheetName: "<any worksheet>"
+```
+Switching to any worksheet triggers a full view-context evaluation that completes the metadata resolution. The warning clears.
+
+**Do NOT** reach for `tabdoc:undo` or a snapshot rollback on the strength of a Data-pane warning alone. Verify via `list-available-fields` first; if the fields are there and typed correctly, the apply is real and the UI just needs a nudge.
+
+### Recover from a bad state
+
+**Undo the most recent apply (preferred for same-apply errors):**
+- `tabdoc:undo` reverses the last action. Chain multiple calls for multi-step undo. Re-fetch the workbook afterward to confirm the restored state.
+- This works even if no prior snapshot exists in the session.
+
+**Rollback to a prior known-good state (for multi-step rollback):**
+1. Find the most recent snapshot in `/tmp/tableau-mcp-rollback/<session-id>/` — these contain previously-applied XML, not the state before the current apply
+2. Apply the chosen snapshot via `apply-workbook` with `mode=file` and `workbook_file` pointing to the snapshot
+3. Verify recovery with worksheet-list readback
+
+**Nuclear option — open a fresh instance:**
+If Tableau Desktop is stuck (commands time out, dialogs can't be dismissed, or the workbook is corrupted):
+1. Save the most recent working snapshot to a `.twb` file in a known location
+2. Use `execute_tableau_command` with `tabui:open-workbook` on the backup file, OR ask the user to open it manually
+3. If `list-instances` is absent from the tool list, the session is pinned to the launching Desktop; open the backup in that Desktop, or restart the MCP session against the fresh Desktop
+4. Otherwise, after the new instance is running, call `list-instances` to discover its session ID
+5. Switch to the new session and continue work
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Reaching for rollback snapshots when `tabdoc:undo` is faster.** For same-apply errors, `tabdoc:undo` is immediate and doesn't require a file apply. Reserve snapshots for multi-step rollback to a state from N applies ago.
+2. **Trusting `status: "completed"` from the Agent API.** Always verify with a follow-up tool call. The API reports success even when Tableau's UI shows an error dialog.
+3. **Searching the wrong log file.** Multiple Tableau instances write to separate log files. Match the PID from your session to find the right log.
+4. **Retrying the same malformed XML.** If an apply fails, re-fetching the workbook first (`get-workbook-xml`) gives you a clean baseline. Never retry with the same modified XML without diagnosing why it failed.
+5. **Spiraling through alternatives.** Cap recovery attempts at 3. After that, report the error to the user — they can see Tableau and may spot the issue faster.
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Apply history snapshot management
+
+Implemented in `src/server/tools/shared-helpers.ts` (`saveRollbackSnapshot`). Called automatically after every successful `loadWorkbookXml` call. Saves the successfully-applied XML to `/tmp/tableau-mcp-rollback/<session-id>/workbook-<timestamp>.xml` and prunes to 5 snapshots per session. These are post-apply snapshots — not pre-apply state captures.
+
+### Tableau Desktop log search (pseudo-code)
+
+```typescript
+// The session manager stores repositoryDir on session create.
+// Access via sessionManager.getLogsDir(sessionId).
+const logsDir = sessionManager.getLogsDir(sessionId);
+const logPath = `${logsDir}/log.txt`;
+
+// Search for errors near a timestamp:
+// grep -i "recognizable\|Command failed\|InformationBox" <logPath> | tail -5
+```

+# Tableau Vocabulary for User-Facing Narration
+
+Tableau users should hear product vocabulary, not implementation vocabulary, in agent narration, tool explanations, and errors.
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent and end-user communication
+- Authoring outcome improved: clearer status, errors, and tool explanations
+- In-scope reason: Tableau users should hear product vocabulary, not implementation vocabulary.
+- Out-of-scope risk: Internal code, parameter names, tool identifiers, API fields, and stored workbook formats can still use implementation terms where required.
+- Tags: vocabulary, user-facing, tableau-speak, narration, errors, shelves, data-types
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "never say XML", "use Tableau vocabulary", "Columns not cols", "Rows shelf", "viz not chart", "Number (whole)", "Number (decimal)", "Text", "True/False"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this whenever composing text that a Tableau user may see: progress updates, error messages, final summaries, clarification questions, tool titles, and tool descriptions. The rule applies even when the underlying implementation is manipulating workbook markup or a failure happened in the parser/serializer layer. Translate the implementation detail into the Tableau object the user recognizes.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- Say **workbook**, **worksheet**, **dashboard**, **sheet**, **viz**, **field**, **Rows**, **Columns**, **Marks**, or **filter** instead of naming the underlying file format.
+- Use the product shelf names **Rows** and **Columns** in user-facing narration. If a tool parameter must remain `rows` or `cols`, explain it as `target=rows` for the Rows shelf or `target=cols` for the Columns shelf.
+- Say **viz** instead of **chart** unless quoting a user, a file name, or a fixed tool or template identifier that cannot be renamed.
+- Use Tableau UI data type names: **Number (whole)**, **Number (decimal)**, **Date**, **Date & Time**, **Text**, and **True/False**.
+- Phrase failures around the affected Tableau object and next action: "The workbook update failed validation" or "The worksheet could not be applied" gives the user a useful anchor.
+
+| Banned or internal wording | Preferred user-facing wording |
+| --- | --- |
+| XML | workbook, worksheet, dashboard, sheet, viz, or field, depending on what changed |
+| XML validation failed | workbook update failed validation / worksheet update failed validation |
+| cols | Columns |
+| rows | Rows |
+| chart | viz |
+| integer | Number (whole) |
+| real / float / decimal | Number (decimal) |
+| datetime | Date & Time |
+| string | Text |
+| boolean / bool | True/False |
+
+Confirmed-working rewrite example:
+
+```text
+Bad: The modified XML failed validation, so I could not load the chart with cols set to Sales.
+Good: The worksheet update failed validation, so I could not update the viz with Sales on Columns.
+```
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+1. **Exposing the implementation layer in an error.** "The XML failed validation" may be technically precise, but it does not tell a Tableau user what object is affected.
+2. **Using shorthand shelf names.** "cols" and "rows" are useful inside code and parameter names, but users see **Columns** and **Rows** in Tableau.
+3. **Calling every viz a chart.** Tableau's product language and design feedback prefer **viz** for user-facing narration.
+4. **Leaking raw datatypes.** "string" and "integer" are implementation or datastore words; Tableau presents these as **Text** and **Number (whole)**.
+
+What does NOT work: replacing every internal occurrence globally. Tool parameter names, command names, cache filenames, and source-code variables may contain fixed implementation vocabulary. Only translate the text that can reach a user or an agent-facing instruction surface.
+
+## Implementation
+
+Before returning a user-facing message, scan for implementation vocabulary and translate it to the closest Tableau object:
+
+1. Identify the affected object: workbook, worksheet, dashboard, viz, field, shelf, filter, or Marks card.
+2. Replace internal format terms with that object name.
+3. Replace shelf shorthand with **Rows** or **Columns**.
+4. Replace raw data type names with the Tableau UI names.
+5. Keep fixed API names unchanged when required, but surround them with user vocabulary: "Set `target=cols` to put the field on Columns."
+
+For validation errors, use this pattern:
+
+```text
+The <workbook/worksheet/dashboard> update failed validation with <N> error(s).
+<details if useful>
+Fix these issues before applying the update.
+```

+# Visualization Templates — Current-Tools Pointer
+
+> **Trimmed entry.** The old `inject_template_visualization` tool no longer exists, and the JSON files in `data/data-visualization-templates/` are the pre-XML node format — **not loadable** by any tool (structural reference only). Per the knowledge-layer review, this entry is reduced to the current-tools pointer; the stale JSON-walkthrough and removed-tool detail have been dropped.
+
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "inject a template visualization", "chart type template", "JSON templates not loadable", "bind-template", "build-and-apply-worksheet", "dashboard-auto-apply", "duplicate and modify instead of building from scratch", "symbol map country only"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Read this when you are about to build a worksheet from a "template" and need to know which mechanism is current. For a **known chart type / common ask** (bar, line, scatter, treemap, waterfall, KPI, ranking, …) the primary move is **`bind-template` with `auto_apply: true`**: it matches the ask against the manifest `intent_keywords`, and on an exact keyword match to a `fast_path_eligible` template it binds and applies the validated template model-free (~2s). If there is no eligible template — ambiguous ask, a hazard like sets/drilldown, or a chart type with no proven template — it escalates/proposes instead of guessing, and you build directly with the worksheet tools.
+
+After template escalation, direct worksheet authoring is normal, not a failure. Use `add-field` to place fields on rows, columns, or encodings, then `refine-worksheet` for top-N, sorting, and other finishing steps.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+- **Bind first (known chart type):** `bind-template` with `auto_apply: true` for plain charts. Auto-apply only fires on templates that already passed the live-render + parity gate, so a confident bind is safe to apply.
+- **Escalate to direct worksheet authoring:** when bind escalates or proposes instead of applying, use `build-and-apply-worksheet` for the whole worksheet, or stepwise `add-field` → `apply-worksheet` → `refine-worksheet` for top-N, sorting, and other finishing steps.
+- **Dashboards use dashboard tools:** use `dashboard-auto-apply` for straightforward dashboard composition, or `plan-dashboard-creation` → `build-and-apply-dashboard` when you need a planned layout.
+- **Profile-conditional XML paths:** `inject-template` and `apply-workbook` exist only in full/demo profiles. Use them when the active profile exposes them; otherwise stay with the binder and direct authoring tools.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- Searching examples first on a common chart type before trying `bind-template` with `auto_apply: true` — the binder is the faster, validated, model-free path when an eligible template exists.
+- Submitting the JSON files in `data/data-visualization-templates/` to `apply-workbook` — they are the old node format and are not valid TWB XML.
+- Looking for `inject_template_visualization` — it was removed; use `bind-template`, or direct worksheet/dashboard authoring when bind escalates.
+
+## Implementation
+
+1. Call `bind-template` with the user ask and `auto_apply: true` for plain chart requests.
+2. On escalate/propose (no eligible template), build directly with `build-and-apply-worksheet`, or use `add-field` → `apply-worksheet` → `refine-worksheet` when you need stepwise control.
+3. For dashboard requests, use `dashboard-auto-apply`; escalate to `plan-dashboard-creation` → `build-and-apply-dashboard` for planned layouts.
+4. In full/demo profiles only, browse XML templates with `list-templates` and apply a specific proven template with `inject-template`.

+# Bulk UI Translation of a Workbook (Three-Layer Text Model)
+
+## Scope Check
+
+- Primary audience: Tableau agent / SE running a bulk "translate all visible text" edit on an already-open workbook.
+- Authoring outcome improved: the agent finds and translates the text a naive "translate everything" pass silently skips (hover tooltips, on-canvas labels, dashboard text zones) while refusing to silently rename the data-dictionary layer.
+- In-scope reason: names the exact Tableau XML nodes that carry visible text and the exact-tag replacement mechanic — Tableau-specific, factual.
+- Out-of-scope risk: translating a `<column caption>` or its `<desc>` is a workbook-wide field RENAME, not a cosmetic label edit. Flag it; do not do it silently.
+- Tags: translation, localization, i18n, tooltip, customized-label, customized-tooltip, dashboard-text-zone, caption, desc, run, formatted-text, umlaut, loanword, exact-tag-replacement, per-worksheet-roundtrip, hidden-by-user
+- Relevant user prompts/search terms: "translate the workbook into German", "translate all visible text", "tooltips didn't get translated", "labels split across runs", "don't rename my calculated fields", "keep Controlling untranslated", "use real umlauts not ae/oe", "translate dashboard text zones"
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use this when a user asks to translate — or bulk-rewrite — all visible text in an open Tableau Desktop workbook. Naive "translate every text string" prompting reliably misses the tooltips and on-canvas text of visuals, because that text does not live where a chart title does. Visible text lives in **three layers that behave differently**, and only two of them are safe to edit directly.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### The three text layers
+
+1. **Dashboard zones** — static `<text>` zones and button `<caption>` elements, in each dashboard's XML (via `get-dashboard-xml`). **Safe to edit directly.**
+2. **Worksheet on-canvas text** — `<customized-label>` (chart captions) and `<customized-tooltip>` (hover text) inside each worksheet's `<pane>` (via `get-worksheet-xml`). **Safe to edit directly.**
+3. **Calculated-field / parameter captions and descriptions** — the `<column caption="...">` attributes and their `<desc>` formula-documentation blocks. This is the **data-dictionary layer**. Editing a `caption` renames the field everywhere it is referenced (every tooltip, legend, and Analysis-pane entry that names it). **Not a cosmetic edit — flag, do not translate silently.**
+
+### Split-run coordination (German compounds)
+
+A single on-screen phrase is often stored as 2–3 separate `<run>` elements, each on its own line (e.g. `Working` on one run, `Capital` on the next). Translate the phrase as a **coordinated whole**, not run-by-run: German compounds do not split at the same word boundary (Working Capital → Betriebskapital / Umlaufvermögen, one word, not two). Decide the full translation first, then decide how to distribute it back across the runs.
+
+### Match the literal string exactly
+
+Replacement is a literal-string swap. Preserve exact leading/trailing whitespace, tabs (`\t`), and embedded newlines (`\n`) inside a run's text. A label stored as `"\tTotal Sales"` must be matched including its leading tab, or the replacement silently no-ops and the text is left in the source language.
+
+### Guardrails before you translate anything
+
+- **Skip `hidden-by-user='true'`** zones and panes — they are invisible template/documentation content, not worth the edit risk.
+- **Ask which sections (if any) are off-limits** (e.g. a section about to be rebuilt or replaced) before touching them.
+- **Leave standard German business loanwords unchanged** even though they are English-spelled: `Controlling`, `ESG`, `Call Center`, `Control Tower`, `Cockpit`, `Material`, `Inflation`, `Start`. These are normal German business usage, not translation gaps.
+- **Use real UTF-8 umlauts** (`ä ö ü ß`), never ASCII substitutes like `ae` / `oe` / `ss`.
+
+### When to Say No
+
+Layer 3 (calculated-field / parameter `caption` + `<desc>`) is **refuse-first**. When you find translatable text there, do not translate it in the same pass. List each one, explain that changing a `caption` is a workbook-wide rename affecting every reference to that field, and get explicit sign-off before touching any of them. Report them separately from the safe layer-1/layer-2 edits you applied.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+- **Stopping at chart/dashboard titles.** The tooltips and on-canvas labels are the text most often missed — they are the reason a "translate everything" pass looks done but isn't.
+- **Translating split runs word-by-word.** `Working` + `Capital` → `Arbeiten` + `Hauptstadt` is nonsense. Coordinate the compound.
+- **Loose text search instead of exact-tag replacement.** A global find/replace can corrupt placeholder or parameter-reference runs (which contain field references like `<[Datasource].[sum:Sales:qk]>`, not prose). Replace within the matched `<run>` tag only.
+- **Dropping the leading whitespace/tab/newline** so the literal match fails and the run is left untranslated.
+- **Silently renaming a `<column caption>` or `<desc>`** — a data-dictionary rename masquerading as a label edit.
+- **ASCII umlaut substitutes** (`Umsaetze` instead of `Umsätze`).
+- **Whole-workbook round-trips for a text edit** (see Implementation) — slow, context-heavy, and it puts the fragile `<datasources>` block in the blast radius of a cosmetic change.
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Prefer per-worksheet round-trips (W61)
+
+For text edits, work **one worksheet/dashboard at a time**: `get-worksheet-xml` → edit the matched runs → `apply-worksheet`. Do **not** pull or re-apply the whole workbook to change tooltip/label text. Per-object round-trips keep the `<datasources>` block out of the edit path (a whole-workbook apply can silently collapse a datasource on an unrelated change) and keep only the object you are editing in context. The W61 cache-slice tools do these per-object round-trips without holding whole-workbook XML; `write-cached-xml` validates the cached object so exact-tag replacement is protected mechanically.
+
+The safe text-bearing shapes look like this:
+
+```xml
+<!-- Layer 2: worksheet on-canvas text, inside <pane> -->
+<customized-tooltip show-buttons='false'>
+  <formatted-text>
+    <run>Sales for </run>
+    <run>Working </run>   <!-- split-run compound: coordinate with the next run -->
+    <run>Capital</run>
+    <run> segment — source: Controlling</run>  <!-- Controlling = loanword, keep -->
+  </formatted-text>
+</customized-tooltip>
+<customized-label>
+  <formatted-text>
+    <run>	Total Sales</run>  <!-- leading tab (\t): match it exactly -->
+  </formatted-text>
+</customized-label>
+
+<!-- Layer 1: dashboard text zone -->
+<zone type-v2='text' h='10000' w='100000' x='0' y='0'>
+  <formatted-text><run>Quarterly Overview</run></formatted-text>
+</zone>
+
+<!-- Layer 3: data-dictionary — FLAG, do not rename silently -->
+<column caption='Profit Margin' datatype='real' name='[Calculation_ProfitMargin]' role='measure' type='quantitative'>
+  <calculation class='tableau' formula='SUM([Profit]) / SUM([Sales])' />
+  <desc><formatted-text><run>Net profit divided by sales.</run></formatted-text></desc>
+</column>
+```
+
+### The verify loop
+
+Translate matched runs/captions with **exact-tag replacement** (not loose text search), apply back **per worksheet**, then verify before moving on:
+
+```
+1. get-worksheet-xml          → read this worksheet's XML
+2. replace matched <run>/<customized-*> text (exact literal, umlauts, loanwords kept)
+3. apply-worksheet           → apply THIS worksheet only
+4. worksheet-list readback    → confirm the sheet set is intact
+5. check-for-user-changes    → confirm nothing else moved/broke
+6. only then advance to the next worksheet/dashboard
+```
+
+If `check-for-user-changes` shows an unexpected change, stop and reconcile before the next object — do not batch forward through a dirty state.

+ * Goal: "build me a sales dashboard" → 3 stamped charts + one composed dashboard,
+ * measured end-to-end, sub-60s wall.
+ *
+ * Path exercised (all against the LIVE Desktop over the LEGACY transport via
+ * build/index.desktop.js on stdio — TABLEAU_EXTERNAL_API is intentionally NOT set):
+ *   Leg 1-3:  bind-template({ auto_apply:true }) × 3  → 3 stamped worksheets, one MCP call each
+ *   Leg 4:    batch-create-and-cache-sheets({ worksheetNames:[], dashboardName })
+ *               → creates ONLY the empty dashboard placeholder (+ caches workbook/dashboard XML).
+ *               NB: worksheetNames MUST be [] — the 3 chart sheets already exist; addSheet
+ *               throws on a name collision, so re-declaring them would abort the leg.
+ *   Leg 5:    build-and-apply-dashboard({ layoutSpec, worksheetNames })
+ *               → injects viewpoints + lays out zones referencing the 3 sheets, applies.
+ * Then: verify (list-worksheets / list-dashboards / get-dashboard-xml) and RESTORE the anchor
+ * fixture ×2 via apply-workbook, with a worksheet-list readback.
+ *
+ * Run:  node_modules/.bin/tsx scripts/dashboard-fastpath-trial.mts
+ * Env:  TMCP_SESSION (default: auto — prefer 77568, else the single running instance)

+// Tier-1 fast-path binder — the orchestrator (design doc §3, with the two-call
+// protocol correction).
+//
+// TWO-CALL PROTOCOL (the MCP server stays model-free):
+//   • Call 1 — `bindTemplate({ ask, ... })`: run classifyNoLlm + role-greedy
+//     binding. If it fully binds AND passes the gate → `{status:"bound"}` with
+//     `used_llm:false`. On a miss → `{status:"propose"}` carrying the compact
+//     `LlmProposeInput` (§3.3) and the strict JSON `output_schema`, so the
+//     CALLING agent produces the BindingProposal itself.
+//   • Call 2 — `bindTemplate({ ask, proposal, ... })`: validate the agent's
+//     proposal through `validateBinding` (§2.4 gates 1–7) → `{status:"bound"}`
+//     or `{status:"escalate", reason, blockers}`.
+//
+// EVAL-ONLY seam: the pure core still accepts an optional `llmPropose` injection.
+// When supplied (and Call 1 missed), the binder calls it and validates the result
+// in-process, so the eval harness can exercise the with-LLM path deterministically
+// without the two-call round trip. The MCP tool never passes `llmPropose`.

+// `classifyNoLlm` is the zero-latency path: it picks a single clearly-winning

+// assignment (measures → quantitative slots, dimensions → categorical/temporal
+// slots) from the ask, producing a `{template, bindings}` the gate can verify.
+// It fails CLOSED — a tie, a zero-score ask, or any unfilled required slot
+// returns `null`, so the orchestrator falls through to the LLM propose path.
+//
+// `buildLlmInput` assembles the compact, constrained-JSON contract for the
+// small-LLM call: only the fast-path candidates that survived keyword ranking
+// (Fuse over intent_keywords when no exact hit), each with its BINDABLE slots
+// only, plus the field schema. Everything the model could get wrong (derivation,

+ * (all sharing the max keyword score) plus the ask's recognizable fields, pick a
+ * single template to auto-bind or return null to fall through to the propose leg.
+ * Two regimes, driven by the measured scale breakpoints:
+ *
+ *  • SINGLE keyword winner (top.length === 1) — SOLE-WRONG-MATCHER GUARD. A lone
+ *    matcher may auto-bind only if at least one keyword it matched is FAMILY-NATIVE
+ *    (`familyNativeKeywords`) OR is a distinctive CHART NOUN (`CHART_NOUN_KEYWORDS`).
+ *    The family-native rule kills the ramp-up wrong-family bind where a template is
+ *    the SOLE matcher of another family's keyword it merely borrowed (that borrowed
+ *    keyword is not native → demote). The chart-noun exemption is the sibling-scaling
+ *    fix: adding an eligible sibling drops a distinctive noun like "bar"/"column"/
+ *    "pie" below the majority threshold, but a chart noun deterministically names a
+ *    type, so a lone chart-noun winner must still one-shot rather than escalate.
+ *
+ *  • TIE (top.length > 1) — INTRA- or CROSS-FAMILY TIEBREAK.
+ *    A tie WITHIN one family has an unambiguous family, so rather than fail closed
+ *    we bind: among the candidates whose required slots the ask's fields satisfy,
+ *    rank by keyword specificity (longer/multi-token first), break remaining ties by
+ *    template name, take the top. If NO tied candidate is slot-satisfiable, propose.
+ *    A tie SPANNING families is genuinely ambiguous EXCEPT when a single candidate's
+ *    most-specific matched CHART NOUN strictly outranks every other's ("stacked bar"
+ *    → part-to-whole beats a generic ranking "bar"): that deterministic chart-type
+ *    winner binds if slot-satisfiable. No unique chart-noun winner → fail closed
+ *    (propose), preserving the ambiguous-ask contract. Whatever is picked is a chart
+ *    the ask explicitly named, so this never introduces a wrong bind.

+// XML-attribute escaping for the bind OUTPUT pipeline (Lane M10, Finding 1).
+//
+// `bindTemplate()` returns `title` (proposal/caller-controlled), the
+// `template_parameters.DATASOURCE`, and every `field_mapping` VALUE (both
+// workbook-controlled), and `APPLY_INSTRUCTION` tells the consuming agent to substitute
+// them VERBATIM into single-quoted template XML attributes (`name='{{TITLE}}'`,
+// `datasource name='{{DATASOURCE}}'`). Unescaped, a workbook datasource named
+// `Evil'/><datasource name='pwn` or a hostile title breaks out of the attribute and
+// injects XML structure at the exact seam this pipeline exists to feed.
+//
+// The five XML metacharacters are escaped EXACTLY ONCE, at the point the returned
+// payload is produced (validate.ts gate 7 for datasource + field_mapping values,
+// validateAndBuild for the title) — so consumers substitute the value as-is and MUST
+// NOT escape again. Tableau field-reference brackets `[ ]` are NOT XML metacharacters
+// and are deliberately left intact, so a clean ref like
+// `[federated.0ztvudt1oegxmm1fw0jci1udekag].[sum:Sales:qk]` round-trips byte-identical.

+// OPTIONAL SMALL-MULTIPLES FACET (W23-SM1 / W25-C), ported to tmcp.
+//
+// The facet is a PURELY ADDITIVE bind appended to classifyNoLlm's result: after
+// the required slots fill, a spare categorical the ask NAMED is appended to the
+// template's OPTIONAL facet slot (facet / facet_row / facet_col) IFF the ask
+// carries explicit facet/trellis vocabulary (FACET_CUES). It never changes the
+// template selection, the bound/unbound decision, or the required bindings — so a
+// no-cue / no-spare ask binds byte-identically to before. Fail-closed cues: a bare
+// "by <dim>" is ambiguous (could be a color encoding) and is EXCLUDED.
+//
+// The inline-fixture tests below prove the classify.ts feature INDEPENDENT of the
+// bundled data state (see the "independent of bundled data" test). As of W27-B the
+// bundled trend-line-chart / ranking-ordered-bar manifests DO carry the optional facet
+// slot (facet_col / facet_row) — copied verbatim from the factory — so a final describe
+// block additionally proves the SHIPPED data end-to-end via loadManifests().

+//   - rank-2: fields kind-compatible with a candidate's required slots come next
+//   - cap at top-N (default 20, opt param) with an accurate more_available flag

+// Tier-1 fast-path binder — manifest loader I/O (design doc §2.1, §3.1).
+//
+// `loadManifests()` mirrors the repo loader idiom (`src/search/index.ts`
+// `loadWorkbookExamples`): a directory listing, `JSON.parse`, and a module-level
+// cache. It returns the per-template manifests keyed by template name
+// (== filename == inject-template `template_name`). Reads go through the
+// SEA-aware assets seam (`readDataAsset`/`listDataAssetNames`, see
+// `src/desktop/assets.ts`) so a Single Executable Application binary with no
+// on-disk data dir loads the embedded manifests; normal builds/tests fall back
+// to the disk data dir exactly like the templates seam (#433).
+//
+// The PURE half — shape/enum validation (`validateManifest`) plus the eligibility
+// predicates (`computeFixtureBind`, `computeFastPathEligible`) — now lives in the
+// fs-free, provider-free `manifest-validation.ts` lockstep-core module. This file keeps
+// only the loader I/O (fs reads, package-data-dir resolution, module cache) and CALLS
+// into it. The pure surface is re-exported below so existing importers of `./manifest.js`
+// are unaffected. XML cross-checks (template_field exists as a <column>, placeholders
+// present, derivation ∈ derivationMap) live in `manifest.test.ts`, matching the "contract
+// enforced by a test" pattern used for knowledge files and plan-binding.

+// `process.cwd()`, which is correct only when the process starts at the repo root

+// cwd. This repo is CommonJS and esbuild-bundles to `build/index.js`, so `__dirname`
+// is available in BOTH the unbundled source (`src/desktop/binder`) and the bundle

+// PUBLISH STORY (closed Lane M4 day-4): the esbuild build now stages
+// `src/desktop/data` → `build/desktop/data` (see `src/scripts/build.ts`

+// Binder MEMOIZATION — "anything the system has seen once is seconds forever."
+//
+// Two content-addressed caches, both invalidated ONLY by a content-hash change
+// (never time-based):
+//
+//   1. SCHEMA CACHE — memoizes `summarizeSchema(workbookXml)` keyed by the
+//      sha256 of the raw workbook XML (the datasource-schema source). An optional
+//      JSON sidecar under the gitignored `cache/` directory survives process
+//      restarts. `summarizeSchema` is the single most expensive deterministic step
+//      on the bind hot-path (it parses XML via listAvailableFields), so caching it
+//      turns every repeat schema into an O(1) lookup.
+//
+//   2. BIND MEMO — memoizes the deterministic leg of `bindTemplate` keyed by
+//      (schemaHash, manifestHash, minConfidence, normalizedAsk). A no-LLM classify
+//      HIT returns the cached InjectTemplateArgs instantly; a bound result produced
+//      by the propose leg (agent Call-2 proposal or the eval-only injected
+//      llmPropose) is cached ONLY AFTER `validateBinding` passes (we cache VALIDATED
+//      results, never raw LLM output). `propose` and `escalate` outcomes are never
+//      cached — so a plain Call-1 that must escalate/propose always recomputes and
+//      the memo can never turn a would-be propose into a wrong bound.
+//
+// KEY COMPOSITION (exact):
+//   schemaHash    = sha256(stableStringify(SchemaSummary))     // content of the derived summary
+//   manifestHash  = sha256(stableStringify(sorted manifest entries))  // every manifest's full content
+//   normalizedAsk = ask.trim().replace(/\s+/g," ")             // whitespace-only normalization; CASE PRESERVED
+//   key           = [schemaHash, manifestHash, String(minConfidence), normalizedAsk].join("\u0000")
+//
+// The whole bind result is a pure function of (ask, SchemaSummary, manifests,
+// proposal, minConfidence) — `bindTemplate` reads the workbook XML ONLY through
+// `summarizeSchema`, then everything downstream consumes the summary — so a key
+// built from the summary content + the full manifest content + the normalized ask
+// fully determines the deterministic result. That is why memoization can never
+// change a result: identical keys ⇒ identical inputs ⇒ identical output.

+// across 3 synthetic alien schemas (SaaS revenue ops, hospital ops, adversarial
+// field-name collisions). The evidence lived only in /tmp; this suite makes the
+// headline a permanent CI invariant against COMMITTED fixtures.

+// closed (not bound) — it must NEVER bind to a DIFFERENT template. Total wrong-binds

+// src/binder/validate.ts
+//
+// Tier-1 fast-path binder — the deterministic validation gate (design doc §2.4).
+//
+// `validateBinding(manifest, proposal, schema)` is PURE (no I/O): it takes a
+// proposed slot→field mapping and either returns the exact `field_mapping` the
+// injector (`replaceFieldReferences`, src/server/tools/templates.ts) needs, or a
+// list of blockers describing why the fast path must escalate. It runs gates 1–7
+// in order:
+//
+//   1. slot coverage        — every required+bindable slot bound exactly once;
+//                             no binding targets an unknown / non-bindable slot.
+//   2. field resolves       — each field resolves to exactly one schema field
+//                             (ambiguous / not_found ⇒ escalate, carrying candidates).
+//   3. kind/role compat     — resolved field's role/type/datatype fits slot.kind.
+//   4. derivation legality  — temporal derivations only on date/datetime;
+//                             aggregations only on numeric; an aggregated calc
+//                             forces `usr` and forbids re-aggregation.
+//   5. base-column consistency — all slots sharing a template_field must resolve
+//                             to the SAME base column, else replaceFieldReferences
+//                             would throw (templates.ts:145-162); pre-fail here.
+//   6. calc dependency closure — every calc's depends_on_slots is a bound slot.
+//   7. emit                 — build the column-instance value FROM the slot's
+//                             derivation (qualified key `Field@deriv` when reused).
+//
+// Field resolution runs against the SchemaSummary (itself derived from
+// `listAvailableFields`, the same source `resolveField` uses), so the gate is a
+// pure function of (manifest, proposal, schema) and every gate has a
+// deterministic fire / no-fire outcome — mirroring the planner's no-guessing
+// block (coordination.ts:185-303) without needing the raw workbook XML.

+// STAGE 2b WITHIN-FAMILY DISAMBIGUATION (measured scale breakpoints). Two rules
+// added to classifyNoLlm's template selection, each pinned here:
+//
+//   (1) INTRA-FAMILY TIEBREAK — a keyword-argmax tie whose tied candidates ALL
+//       share one family is unambiguous at the family level, so instead of failing
+//       closed we bind: rank the slot-satisfiable candidates by keyword specificity
+//       (longer/multi-token matches first), break remaining ties by template name,
+//       and take the top. A tie that SPANS families stays fail-closed (propose).
+//       This recovers the no-LLM hit rate that collapsed to 0 once a family held
+//       >1 fast-path template (every intra-family tie used to fail closed).
+//
+//   (2) SOLE-WRONG-MATCHER GUARD — a lone keyword winner may auto-bind ONLY if at
+//       least one keyword it matched is FAMILY-NATIVE (carried by a strict majority
+//       of its own family's eligible templates). A template that is the SOLE matcher
+//       of a keyword it merely BORROWED from another family (that borrowed keyword is
+//       in only one of its family's members → not native) demotes to propose. This
+//       kills the ramp-up wrong-family bind measured at 10-40%.

Three plain slots {member, actual, line} bound as ordinary categorical + two quantitative measures; the ONLY calc is the aggregate sign, which references the two bindable measure slots with plain arithmetic (SUM + subtraction + SIGN) and is rewritten on bind. Cloned from ww-ou-arrow's dual-mark (Line shaft + Shape arrowhead) arrow grammar but with EVERY compound-string-parse calc removed: no SPLIT/TRIM of a '<prefix> <winner>-<loser>' score string, no '<name> (<year>)' member-label parse, no season/id/roman-numeral text columns, and no inline O/U-diff spine. Intent keywords are deliberately DISTINCT from ww-ou-arrow's 'arrow-chart'/'over-under-arrow' chart-nouns (this template uses 'over-under' + the unique slug 'deviation-arrow'): those two nouns live in classify.ts CHART_NOUN_KEYWORDS, and a SECOND fast_path_eligible carrier of a chart-noun trips the lone-winner uniqueness contract (manifest.test.ts 'every classify.ts CHART_NOUN_KEYWORD is carried by <=1 fast_path_eligible manifest'), so carrying them would make this template un-stampable.

+// Finding 5: the build.ts `stagedDesktopData` allowlist is manual — nothing otherwise
+// proves that every resource the shipped content-manifest.json declares actually lands
+// under a staged root. A resource added to the manifest (its sha256 baked into the
+// integrity gate) but NOT to the allowlist would ship a pack whose hashes reference files
+// missing from the tarball → the provider's hash gate rejects a resource that was never
+// copied. This test closes that gap WITHOUT executing build.ts (it runs an IIFE at import).
+//
+// TR1 fix: build.ts previously ran a blanket `copyDirectory('./src/desktop/data', ...)`
+// BEFORE the allowlist loop, so the allowlist was cosmetic and any large asset dropped into
+// src/desktop/data/ (or a future one) rode into the tarball. The allowlist is now
+// AUTHORITATIVE — build.ts stages only the entries below. These tests pin that: every listed
+// entry stages, the ~10 MB TWB trim source under src/desktop/data-source/ can never be
+// staged, and build.ts keeps no blanket copy that would bypass the allowlist.
+//
+// LOCKSTEP: STAGED_DESKTOP_DATA mirrors the allowlist in src/scripts/build.ts
+// (`stagedDesktopData`). build.ts cannot be imported without side effects, so the list is

+/**
+ * Multi-datasource field resolver.
+ *
+ * Today the codebase silently picks the first match for a user-friendly field
+ * name across `findField` (single-datasource), `coordination.ts` (ad hoc
+ * exact + agg-prefix logic), and `field-builder.ts` (`listAvailableFields`).
+ * The agent then learns to "trust" the first guess. When the workbook has
+ * two datasources both with a "Profit" column — or one with "Profit Ratio"
+ * and another with "Profit (USD)" — that silent guess produces XML that
+ * loads but binds the wrong field.
+ *
+ * `resolveField` makes ambiguity a first-class outcome, returning one of:
+ *   - `exact`: a single, unambiguous match
+ *   - `rewritten`: matched after applying a known transformation (parsed an
+ *     `<agg> of <name>` prefix, normalized brackets, mapped a calculated
+ *     field with embedded aggregation to derivation=User)
+ *   - `ambiguous`: more than one candidate matches; caller MUST disambiguate
+ *     (typically via `tableau-ask-user`) before applying
+ *   - `not_found`: no match; returns fuzzy did-you-mean suggestions
+ *
+ * The resolver is pure: same workbook XML + same query => same output. It
+ * does NOT emit events; the calling tool emits a `field_resolution` event
+ * with the result.

+/**
+ * Pre-dispatch guard: tabdoc:generate-viz-from-notional-spec
+ *
+ * Confirmed incident (2026-07-19, live Sonnet 5 session driving Tableau Desktop): the
+ * agent invoked this command with a fabricated schema ({"mark","columns","rows","title"}
+ * plus a "worksheetName" parameter) instead of the real contract. The product does not
+ * validate the args client-side — it returned a raw 500 and the agent lost the fast
+ * path. This guard rejects a malformed invocation BEFORE it reaches the product, with a
+ * FIX message that carries the correct minimal example and points at the knowledge
+ * module that documents the contract.
+ *
+ * The NotionalSpec dialect is retired; this guard exists to block/contain the retired
+ * command. Its FIX message steers to the current dialect's knowledge home
+ * (expertise://tableau/tactics/data/dynamic-dashboard-authoring). Keep this guard in sync
+ * with that doc if the v0.2 schema changes.

+// Agent-side command PARAMETER guard — bad param shapes never reach Desktop.
+//
+// Live incident (2026-07-19, on the user's screen, twice): a model invoked
+// tabdoc:goto-sheet through execute-tableau-command with a fabricated param
+// key. Tableau does not fail this silently — it pops a BLOCKING modal error
+// dialog ("Error in parameters for command 'goto-sheet' — bad value: sheet —
+// Error Code: 47BF7751"), and a stuck-open modal can fail every subsequent
+// command until a human dismisses it. commandRegistry.ts already refuses an
+// UNKNOWN COMMAND VERB; this guard is the companion check one level down —
+// it refuses a KNOWN command called with the WRONG PARAM SHAPE, using the
+// same bundled reference's per-command `parameters[]` contract:
+//   - an "in" param name not present on the command's contract -> rejected,
+//     naming the offending key and listing the valid ones
+//   - a "required": true "in" param missing from the call -> rejected,
+//     naming the missing key(s)
+// Commands the reference flags via `opens_blocking_dialog: true` get a
+// stricter message on either rejection, since a bad call to one of THESE is
+// exactly the class of failure that interrupts the user with a modal.
+//
+// A command with a KNOWN contract but ZERO declared "in" params (e.g.
+// tabdoc:generate-viz-from-notional-spec — pane-invoked commands are dropped
+// by the reference's parameter-extraction pass, see its provenance_note) has
+// no positive list to validate keys against, so the unknown-key check is
+// skipped for it; the deeper NotionalSpec payload guard is the one that
+// validates that command's actual shape.

+/**
+ * Pure worksheet-XML planners for the `refine-worksheet` desktop tool (refine fast lane).
+ *
+ * These functions are the ONLY place the tool decides WHAT to change. They take a single
+ * fetched worksheet fragment (as returned by the External Client API sheet document
+ * slice returns it), plan a MINIMAL patch, and either return the patched XML or a precise
+ * refusal. They do NO I/O — the tool wraps them with fetch -> preflight -> apply-once ->
+ * readback.
+ *
+ * Two operations only:
+ *   - top_n: insert a native `function="end"` top/bottom filter on the sheet's single
+ *     unambiguous categorical dimension CI, keyed by its single measure CI, then
+ *     create/extend <slices>.
+ *   - sort_direction: flip `direction` on an existing single self-closing <computed-sort>.
+ *     The nested <sort class="computed-sort"> form crashes Desktop and is refused. When
+ *     NO sort node exists yet, INSERT a safe self-closing <computed-sort> — but only under
+ *     the confirmed simple-bar shape (exactly one categorical dimension + one measure, both
+ *     on a shelf, single pane): the exact shape magnitude-simple-bar.xml ships (its sort
+ *     node at :24). Any richer shape keeps the no-sort refusal.
+ *
+ * Refusal, not repair: anything outside this tiny envelope (ambiguous dims/measures, n
+ * outside 1..50, sets/params/rollups/calcs, an existing Top-N, a nested/multiple
+ * computed-sort, or an absent computed-sort on a shape richer than a simple bar) returns
+ * `{ ok: false, reason }` so the caller can hand back to the standard authoring path
+ * instead of entering whole-workbook XML surgery.
+ *
+ * Repo-agnostic by construction: this module imports only third-party XML libraries
+ * (@xmldom/xmldom, xpath) — no tableau-mcp modules — so it is a byte-adoption candidate
+ * for cross-repo lockstep. Derived values (field/CI names read out of the live, untrusted
+ * worksheet XML) are XML-escaped before insertion; only closed enums and an integer count
+ * ever reach an attribute unescaped.

+// The one-shot deflection GATE (Slice B, adapted from a2td src/server/route-gate.ts).
+// Flag-gated (ROUTE_ENFORCEMENT, default OFF), fail-open, additive: on a scratch-path ENTRY
+// tool it either lets the call proceed (returns null) or returns a typed deflection to be
+// RETURNED INSTEAD of executing — steering the agent to run the fast lane first when a stamped
+// template (or a supported refine) already covers the ask.
+//
+// SESSION-KEYED (constraint 1): tmcp has no episodes, so — unlike a2td, which pre-computed the
+// route at begin-episode and had the gate merely READ it — this gate CLASSIFIES the ask on
+// demand (via `classifyAskRoute`) and dedups per (session, ask) through the session route
+// state. Deflection text is generated at runtime; nothing is added to the tools/list surface.
+//
+// ONE-SHOT INVARIANT: at most one deflection per (session, ask). A SECOND scratch-entry call
+// for the same (session, ask) after a deflection executes and records a `route_override` —
+// never a loop.
+//
+// WIRING: `checkRouteGate` remains the ask-driven entry point. `checkRouteGateForScratchEntry`
+// is the no-ask wiring path for structured slow-path tools: it reads the most recent
+// bind-template classification from session state and never classifies at the scratch tool, so
+// no ask param is added to the frozen tools/list surface. Flag-off inertness holds regardless.

+/**
+ * Apply-path DATEPARSE temporal-axis splice (temporal_axis_from_string).
+ *
+ * A time-series template's temporal slot (trend-line-chart's `order_date`) declares a
+ * real DATE base column (`<column datatype='date' name='[Order Date]'>`) with a
+ * Month-Trunc CI on the shelf (`[tmn:Order Date:qk]`, derivation 'Month-Trunc') that
+ * yields a continuous month axis. When the ONLY temporal-looking field in the dataset
+ * is a STRING (e.g. a "2025-08" month column), pointing the axis at that string would
+ * ask Tableau to Month-Trunc a string — which it cannot, so the axis renders wrong (or
+ * the singer falls back to value-sorted bars, the observed e4 failure).
+ *
+ * This GLUE step (like waterfallAnchorFilter / facetSplice) runs on the RAW template
+ * BEFORE the frozen core rewrite, and ONLY when the binder opted a slot into
+ * temporal_axis_from_string and resolved a string source field. Rather than inject a
+ * new CI and repoint every reference (which risks duplicate CI names), it does the
+ * MINIMAL edit:
+ *   1. Rewrites the template's temporal BASE column declaration in place, turning
+ *      `<column datatype='date' name='[Order Date]' …/>` into a DATEPARSE CALC column
+ *      `<column …><calculation formula="DATEPARSE('yyyy-MM', [month])"/></column>`.
+ *   2. Declares the bound string SOURCE column (`[month]`) so the formula resolves.
+ * The existing `[tmn:Order Date:qk]` CI and every shelf/format reference stay
+ * byte-unchanged — they now truncate a real (parsed) date. The binder MUST skip the
+ * temporal slot's field_mapping entry so the core rewrite leaves `[Order Date]` alone.
+ *
+ * INVARIANTS
+ *   - No dateparse axis requested (null spec) → identity: byte-for-byte unchanged.
+ *   - Idempotent: the base column is only rewritten if it isn't already a calc.
+ *   - Fail-closed: if the temporal base column can't be found to rewrite, THROW rather
+ *     than emit a chart whose axis silently truncates a string.
+ *
+ * CORRECTNESS CAVEAT (why the binder gates this narrowly): DATEPARSE returns NULL
+ * silently on a wrong format, and the binder sees only schema, never cell VALUES. The
+ * format is inferred from the field name; a mis-inference yields a blank axis. The
+ * binder only requests this for a slot that OPTED IN and a date-like field name, and
+ * the render MUST be verified live before a template enables the opt-in.

+/**
+ * Apply-path facet splice (W28-C, ported from a2td server/tools/facet-splice.ts) —
+ * make a BOUND optional facet slot RENDER.
+ *
+ * W27-B armed the optional small-multiples facet slot on trend-line-chart and
+ * ranking-ordered-bar: the binder emits `field_mapping["Facet"]`, and the byte-locked
+ * field-reference rewriter (src/desktop/templates/fieldReferenceRewriter.ts) renames the
+ * OFF-SHELF `[Facet]` base column to the bound dimension. But nothing lands on the
+ * rows/cols shelf, so a bound facet is visually a NO-OP.
+ *
+ * This GLUE step closes that gap WITHOUT touching the byte-locked core. It runs
+ * BEFORE the core rewrite, on the RAW template (facet refs still named `[Facet]`),
+ * and — only when the mapping actually binds the facet slot — splices a `[Facet]`
+ * column-instance pill onto the correct shelf AHEAD of the existing pill, plus the
+ * matching `<column-instance>` declaration if absent. The core rewrite that runs
+ * next maps every `[Facet]` reference (base column, instance, shelf pill) to the
+ * bound field for free, so we reuse the tested engine instead of re-implementing
+ * datasource-qualification / derivation normalization / escaping here.
+ *
+ * INVARIANTS
+ *   - Un-faceted apply → returns the input string UNCHANGED (identity), so the
+ *     downstream core sees the exact bytes it saw before this feature existed.
+ *   - Already-on-shelf facet (e.g. box-plot-chart, whose template wires the facet
+ *     itself) → no double-splice; returns input unchanged, the core rewrites it.
+ *   - Fail-closed: a facet is bound but the shelf cannot be resolved unambiguously
+ *     → THROW (the caller turns this into an apply error), never a corrupt sheet.
+ *
+ * SHELF ROLE (per the slot's role, inferred structurally): the facet is a
+ * categorical dimension that partitions the panes, so it goes on the shelf that
+ * already carries the chart's DIMENSION pill (the other shelf carries the
+ * measure). This reproduces both facet manifests exactly — trend-line-chart's
+ * facet_col (cols hold the truncated-date dimension) and ranking-ordered-bar's
+ * facet_row (rows hold the ranked category) — without needing the manifest at
+ * apply time, so every apply path (inject-template and build-and-apply-worksheet,
+ * which both funnel template XML + field_mapping into rewriteFieldReferences)
+ * picks it up uniformly.

+
+// =============================================================================
+// LOCKSTEP-CORE CANDIDATE — shared DOM-structural field-reference rewriter.
+// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+// This is the convergence keystone: the single DOM-structural rewrite body that
+// both this repo (tableau-mcp) and the source authoring repo (agent-to-tableau-
+// desktop) are converging onto. It is intentionally PURE — no fs, no MCP, no
+// zod, no logging — and its imports are kept minimal and repo-agnostic
+// (@xmldom/xmldom + xpath + node crypto) so a future step can promote it to a
+// byte-identical shared core imported by both repos. Do NOT add repo-specific
+// imports (config, logging, error types, zod) here; keep those in callers.
+//
+// RAW-vs-ESCAPED BOUNDARY (named contract):
+//   The rewriter takes RAW (UNESCAPED) inputs — the `fieldMapping` values and
+//   the `datasourceName` are plain strings exactly as the caller holds them. ALL
+//   XML escaping is produced EXCLUSIVELY by DOM serialization at the end of this
+//   function (setAttribute / text-node writes escape once when serialized).
+//   Callers MUST NOT pre-escape mapping values or the datasource name — doing so
+//   double-escapes (`&` → `&amp;amp;`). A metachar-bearing field name (e.g.
+//   `R&D <Team>`) is therefore escaped EXACTLY ONCE in the output. See the
+//   colocated `fieldReferenceRewriter.test.ts` "raw-vs-escaped" proof.
+//
+// DOM-STRUCTURAL passes (per reference class), in order:
+//   0. (opt-in) per-apply calc namespacing
+//   1. base <column> name + metadata
+//   2. <column-instance column=...> base-column rename
+//   3. <column-instance name=...> incl. COMPOUND (table-calc) derivations
+//   3b/3b-ii. calc <calculation formula> + calc <column caption> field refs
+//   3c. filter member neutralization for remapped filtered fields
+//   4/5. datasource-qualified refs in text nodes + attribute values
+//   final. remaining {{DATASOURCE}} fill; <run> CDATA wrapping
+//
+// DELIBERATE DEVIATIONS FROM A (report before lockstep can be byte-identical):
+//   - `namespaceCalcs` defaults to FALSE here (A defaults TRUE). A's default-on
+//     path folds in a `randomUUID()` nonce generated INSIDE the function, which
+//     is impure/nondeterministic — unacceptable for a pure, characterizable core
+//     and for deterministic tests. Here namespacing runs only when explicitly
+//     enabled AND given a caller-supplied `applyNonce`; the module never mints a
+//     nonce itself. This also preserves the prior tableau-mcp behavior (the old
+//     rewriter never namespaced), so the thin wrapper stays behavior-compatible.
+//   - The final bare-`{{DATASOURCE}}` fill uses a REPLACER FUNCTION rather than a
+//     replacement string, so `$`-sequences in the datasource name (e.g. `A$$B$1`)
+//     are inserted literally instead of being treated as `$&`/`$1` back-refs.
+// =============================================================================

+// DOM nodeType constants — `Node` is not a global value in the desktop runtime,
+// so compare against the numeric constants directly.

+// no-root-element throw, well-formed-no-refs) that the core's own colocated suite does
+// not otherwise pin.
+//
+// Assertions are targeted, serialization-agnostic invariants (ref strings, not
+// attribute quoting/ordering) — @xmldom/xmldom re-quotes and may reorder, so we
+// pin the semantics of the rewrite, not the serializer's byte formatting.

+// Tests tagged `// CHARACTERIZATION:` document behavior that is UNCHANGED by the
+// shared DOM-structural rewriter. Pins whose behavior intentionally IMPROVED when

+/**
+ * Validation rule: connections-not-authorable
+ *
+ * Terminal, non-retryable preflight rejection for hand-authored (or structurally
+ * modified) `<connection>` XML — the tmcp half of the Southard containment redesign
+ * (~/.claude/state/w60-southard-containment-spec.md §3 layer 3, task card #2).
+ *
+ * WHY: Tableau Desktop only accepts the connection SHAPE it serializes itself on a
+ * live readback — a modern datasource is `<connection class="federated">` wrapping
+ * `<named-connections><named-connection name="<protocol>.<Desktop-minted-id>">` around
+ * the real per-protocol `<connection class="excel-direct"|"hyper"|...>`. A model that
+ * hand-authors (or copies from a .tds) a bare `<connection class="excel-direct" .../>`
+ * directly under `<datasource>` — or fabricates a `named-connection` name instead of
+ * using Desktop's own minted id — produces XML that LOOKS plausible but fails at
+ * connect time (confirmed product behavior, see
+ * ~/.claude/projects/-Users-mattfilbert--claude/memory/tableau-oracle-connection-xml.md:
+ * "Adding protocol to the list of known bad protocols", connection construction fails
+ * in-proc before any file I/O — the shape is invalid, not the data).
+ *
+ * Every other preflight rule in this framework is retryable: its `message`/`suggestion`
+ * are "FIX lines" the agent is instructed (server.desktop.ts's DESKTOP_INSTRUCTIONS) to
+ * patch and re-apply. THIS rule is deliberately NOT phrased that way — there is no XML
+ * fix that makes a hand-authored connection accept; the only correct next step is
+ * "guide the user to Desktop's Connect pane, then re-read the workbook" (do NOT retry).
+ * Structural, not a true diff against a live baseline: `ValidationRule.validate(xml)` is
+ * pure over one XML string (no baseline plumbing exists in this framework and none is
+ * added here), so this rule detects "does this look like something Desktop emits" rather
+ * than "did this connection change since the last read". That is sufficient for both
+ * required outcomes: an unmodified live-readback round-trip (byte-identical shape) is
+ * NEVER rejected, and a hand-authored/copied-from-.tds connection (which cannot
+ * reproduce Desktop's opaque id-minting scheme) IS rejected.

+/**
+ * Validation rule: date-like-string-on-time-axis
+ *
+ * Heuristic companion to the stricter "field is proven date metadata" guard. This one
+ * catches the CSV-inference failure mode where a field like Month is still typed as a
+ * string/nominal dimension, but the worksheet is authored like a time series.
+ *
+ * DETECTION SIGNALS (all required):
+ *   1. A rows/cols pill resolves to string/nominal metadata, or to a none:/nominal
+ *      column-instance with no date derivation.
+ *   2. The field name/caption contains a date-like term from DATE_LIKE_FIELD_NAME_TERMS.
+ *   3. Worksheet intent looks temporal: mark class is Line/Area, or the candidate pill
+ *      sits on Cols while Rows contains a continuous aggregate measure.
+ *
+ * False-positive safety:
+ *   - Date/datetime metadata or a proper date derivation (yr/mn/tmn/tyr/etc.) suppresses
+ *     the warning; the stricter date rule owns those cases.
+ *   - Non-line/area categorical marks are suppressed when the same field is also used on
+ *     a mark encoding such as color/label, which is the clear categorical Month-as-member
+ *     shape.
+ *
+ * Severity: warning. The field name signal is intentionally heuristic, so a legitimate
+ * categorical Month/Period dimension should be confirmable rather than blocked.

+ * derivation strings. Look-alike strings such as `Attr` (not `Attribute`) or
+ * `TruncMonth` / `TruncYear` / `TruncDay` (not `Month-Trunc` / `Year-Trunc` /
+ * `Day-Trunc`) are NOT rejected on load — Tableau silently rewrites both the
+ * derivation and the CI name to `None`, so the intended truncation/aggregation is
+ * dropped and the chart renders blank or unaggregated with no error. This preflight
+ * turns that silent rewrite into an actionable "fix this string" before the XML is
+ * ever sent to Tableau.
+ *
+ * Severity: ERROR. An invalid derivation string is never intentional — it always
+ * degrades the render silently.
+ *
+ * Ported from agent-to-tableau-desktop
+ * (src/validation/rules/invalid-derivation-string.ts) into tableau-mcp's rule shape:

+ * (observed live on 2026-07-08, apply-workbook).

+ * An aggregate ref with the ORDINAL suffix (`[sum:Sales:ok]`) is only valid when a

+ *
+ * Isolated 2026-07-09 (Laulima day-1 live dogfood): Desktop logged the unknown-column
+ * error 21× during an agent-built dashboard whose heatmap rendered wrong values.
+ * Ported from agent-to-tableau-desktop (a2td 028f87d + bcdf057 review fixups).
+ *
+ * Severity: WARNING — a declared discrete aggregate instance is legitimate, and
+ * Tableau tolerates some undeclared shelf refs by deriving the instance; only the

+ * are matched payload-wide, not per-datasource (false-negative direction only).

+// is an ERROR-severity preflight: it fires when a <column-instance derivation="..."> uses a

+//
+// Tonight this was verified by hand (40/40 templates clean). This suite makes that

+/**
+ * Reproducible trim for `src/desktop/data/twb-example-index.json`.
+ *
+ * WHY: the full index is ~10.3 MB and (once the desktop variant is published)
+ * rides into the npm tarball via `build.ts` copying `src/desktop/data`. Only the
+ * `search-workbook-examples` tool consumes it, through
+ * `src/desktop/search/searchLibrary.ts::searchWorkbookExamples`, which:
+ *   - scores each entry on its `features` tags (exact +10 / partial +5),
+ *     `name` substring (+3), and — only when nothing else matched — a literal
+ *     substring hit in a snippet's `xml` (+1);
+ *   - returns at most TWB_RESULTS_LIMIT (15) entries.
+ * It never reads `snippets[*].json` (a mechanical parse of `xml`, i.e. redundant).
+ *
+ * RETRIEVAL-QUALITY GUARANTEE (oracle seeding): a naive per-feature quota trim
+ * silently dropped the source top-15 for name-sensitive and XML-fallback queries
+ * (e.g. `parameter`, `dashboard`, `data-source-filters`). To prevent that, before
+ * applying the quota we compute the SOURCE top-15 for a generated query suite —

+// ── Multi-task-plan focus ownership (internal seam, NOT a tool-surface field) ──
+//
+// A dashboard-creation plan builds N worksheets + 1 dashboard. Phase 2 tells the
+// client to spawn those worksheet applies in PARALLEL (see plan-dashboard-creation),
+// and every build-and-apply-worksheet apply otherwise issues its own goto-sheet
+// (focusAppliedSheetBestEffort). With parallel applies the LAST completer would steal
+// focus nondeterministically onto a worksheet — the live blank-"Sheet 1" symptom —
+// when only the FINAL dashboard apply should own focus.
+//
+// The plan tool records the worksheet names it owns, keyed by session; build-and-apply-
+// worksheet suppresses focus ONLY for a worksheet that belongs to such a plan. A
+// standalone hand-crafted taskSpec (no plan recorded for that session/name) focuses as
+// before.
+//
+// This is deliberately an internal module seam rather than a taskSpec schema field: the
+// desktop tool surface is already near the ToolSearch auto-deferral cliff and both
+// plan-dashboard-creation and build-and-apply-worksheet are grandfathered at their
+// current byte sizes (see server.desktop.test.ts byte budget), so a public input field
+// is not acceptable.
+//
+// Residual (disclosed, mirrors a2td #215): entries are process-global and session-keyed,
+// and are only ever replaced by a later plan for the same session (markPlanBuildWorksheets
+// overwrites) or cleared on process restart — there is no per-apply eviction. So after a
+// plan, a genuinely standalone build-and-apply-worksheet that reuses a planned name in the
+// SAME session stays focus-suppressed until the session re-plans (which overwrites the set)
+// or the process restarts. Re-planning with a different worksheet set drops the stale names.

+// dashboard-health-check — READ-ONLY drift detector for previously-bound dashboards
+// (W60 self-healing MVP, flag-only mode).
+//
+// Diffs a caller-held binding manifest (what a prior bind believed to be true)
+// against the CURRENT live workbook XML and reports per-finding drift classes:
+//   D1  zone points at a dead (likely renamed) worksheet     — breaking
+//   D2  referenced worksheet deleted                          — breaking
+//   D3  field removed from the datasource                     — breaking
+//   D4  field retyped upstream (same name, new type/role)     — ambiguous
+//   D7  orphan zone (references a sheet that never existed)   — breaking
+//   D10 primary datasource changed (heuristic signal)         — ambiguous
+// D9 (live render breakage) is structurally undetectable from XML and is
+// disclosed in every report's `undetectable` array — never silently omitted.
+//
+// FLAG-ONLY HARD LINE: `wouldBeRepair` is prose plus a primitive name, never an
+// executable action. This module imports ONLY read-side functions; there is no
+// parameter that unlocks a write. The colocated test pins the import list so a
+// future edit that pulls in a mutating path fails CI.
+//
+// Hash reuse (NOT a third mechanism — see w60-self-healing-mvp-spec.md §2):
+//   1. raw workbook-XML sha256 (`sha256Hex`, memo.ts — same digest SchemaCache
+//      keys by) as the cheap byte-identical short-circuit, and
+//   2. the schema-summary content hash (`hashSchemaSummary`, memo.ts) as the
+//      per-sheet "schema provably identical" skip; when it differs, a structural
+//      field-by-field diff classifies D3 vs D4 vs benign.

+ * own. The Tableau REST list entry carries ONLY `{ id, schedule?, datasource?: {id}, workbook?: {id} }`
+ * (see src/sdks/tableau/types/extractRefreshTask.ts) and there is NO single-task GET endpoint — so a
+ * task's identity DERIVES from its underlying content:
+ *   - `target.name`    = the underlying datasource/workbook name
+ *   - `target.project` = its project name
+ *   - `target.owner`   = its owner email/name (via resolveOwnerEmail, best-effort)
+ * If the task has no datasource/workbook reference, or the content lookup fails, the field is left
+ * undefined (documented best-effort). This function NEVER throws: every lookup is wrapped so a resolve
+ * failure degrades to an id-only target and can never block or fail the guarded mutation/audit.
+ *
+ * COST: the task list yields only the underlying content ID, so enriching name/project/owner requires
+ * ONE content lookup (queryDatasource | getWorkbook) plus ONE owner lookup (queryUserOnSite) —
+ * mirroring the cost the workbook/datasource delete branches already pay. Callers that ALREADY hold
+ * the task list (the delete-content task branch runs it as its existence check) pass it via `tasks` to
+ * avoid a re-list; the confirm/update paths omit it and this helper lists once itself.
+ *
+ * This is single-sourced across all four extract-refresh-task mutation paths (delete-content task
+ * branch, update-cloud-extract-refresh-task, confirm-delete-content, confirm-update-cloud-extract-refresh-task)

-Rows are sorted descending by \`daysSinceLastUse\`, then by \`size\`. Items with no recorded

-
-To act on a stale item (e.g. \`delete-workbook\`, \`get-workbook\`, \`delete-datasource\`), pass

-
-Caller supplies a fully formed VDS \`query\` object (fields, filters, parameters). Common usage:
-- Analyze extract refresh durations and failure rates per datasource or workbook.
-- Identify extracts with high consecutive failure counts or long run times.
-- Compare scheduled frequency against actual job completion times to recommend schedule optimization.
-- Find jobs that overlap or compete for resources in the same time window.
-
-Key field captions include: Job ID, Job Type, Job Result, Item Name, Item Type, Started At,
-Completed At, Job Duration, Job Execution Duration, Schedule Name, Owner Email, Extract File Size.
-For the full list of 52 available fields, use \`get-datasource-metadata\` on the Job Performance
-datasource or see the tool documentation.
-
-The datasource exposes a Timezone parameter that adjusts local-time fields. Pass it inside
-\`query.parameters\` as \`{ "parameterCaption": "Timezone", "dataType": "INTEGER", "value": -7 }\`.

-Caller supplies a fully formed VDS \`query\` object (fields, filters, parameters). Common usage:
-- Identify last-access timestamp per content item: filter Event Type to "Access", group by Item ID and Item Type,
-  aggregate MAX(Event Date (UTC)).
-- Audit which users last accessed a workbook within the 90-day window.
-
-Notes:
-- Tableau Cloud lookback is 90 days by default (365 days with Advanced Management).
-- The underlying datasource LUID is resolved automatically; callers do not pass datasourceLuid.
-- This tool bypasses the standard datasource access checker because the dataset is internal
-  and admin-gated.

- * delete-datasource (W-23202047, mirroring confirm-delete-workbook).
- *
- * This tool is APP-ONLY (`meta.ui.visibility = ['app']`), so a cooperating MCP client hides it from
- * the model — exactly like confirm-delete-workbook. In that cooperative flow the only path that
- * reaches it is a human clicking "Confirm" inside the rendered MCP-Apps iframe, which calls back via
- * `app.callServerTool`. The destructive `deleteDatasource` REST call lives ONLY here. NOTE:
- * `visibility` is a client-side hint, not a server guarantee — a non-cooperating client could still
- * call this tool directly; the TagEvidence + AppApprovalEvidence gate below is what the server
- * actually enforces.
- *
- * The guard verifies BOTH (AllEvidence):
- *   - a fresh in-iframe human approval (AppApprovalEvidence, namespace 'delete-datasource') recorded
- *     by the delete-datasource preview within the MUTATION_PREVIEW_TTL_MINUTES window, single-use; and
- *   - the live `pending-deletion` tag (TagEvidence), re-fetched server-side and un-forgeable.
- * Either missing → PreviewNotRunError, no delete. The composite can only ever narrow access.
- *
- * Gated behind the off-by-default `mcp-apps` flag AND ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED, so when the flag is off
- * the model never sees a destructive tool that lacks a preview path.

-Permanently deletes a published data source from the current Tableau site. Restricted to
-Tableau site administrators and requires the \`ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED\` feature flag.
-
-This tool is **two-phase** to keep the destructive action safe:
-
-1. **Preview (default — \`confirm\` omitted or false):** tags the data source as pending deletion
-   (reversible, visible in the Tableau UI; label configurable via \`tag\`, default
-   \`${DEFAULT_PENDING_DELETION_TAG}\`), reports the data source name, project, and owner, **warns
-   which workbooks and flows depend on it and may break**, and does **not** delete anything.
-2. **Delete (\`confirm: true\`):** permanently removes the data source. Before deleting, the server
-   re-fetches the data source and verifies it is tagged as pending deletion (the tag applied in
-   step 1). If the tag is absent the deletion is rejected — this is a server-authoritative gate that
-   genuinely requires the preview phase to have run; it cannot be bypassed by computing a token,
-   because the caller has no way to set the tag other than by previewing. On Tableau Cloud the data
-   source is moved to the recycle bin and can be restored for a limited time before permanent removal
-   (see ${RECYCLE_BIN_DOC_URL}); on Tableau Server there is no recycle bin and deletion is permanent.
-   Dependent workbooks and flows are **not** deleted, but will lose this data source.
-
-**Required human confirmation:** After preview, present the data source (name, project, owner) and
-its dependent content to the user and get explicit approval before calling again with \`confirm: true\`.
-Do not auto-confirm — get the user's explicit approval first.
-
-**Parameters:**
-- \`datasourceId\` (required) – The LUID of the data source. Obtain it from \`list-datasources\`.
-- \`confirm\` (optional) – Set \`true\` to perform the deletion (requires the pending-deletion tag from
-  a prior preview). Defaults to preview.
-- \`tag\` (optional) – Preview tag label. Defaults to \`${DEFAULT_PENDING_DELETION_TAG}\`. If you
-  previewed with a custom tag, pass the same value when confirming.

- * confirm-delete-extract-refresh-task — the human-gesture confirm step of the MCP-Apps HITL flow for
- * delete-extract-refresh-task (W-23202047, mirroring confirm-delete-workbook).
- *
- * This tool is APP-ONLY (`meta.ui.visibility = ['app']`), so a cooperating MCP client hides it from
- * the model. In that cooperative flow the only path that reaches it is a human clicking "Confirm"
- * inside the rendered MCP-Apps iframe, which calls back via `app.callServerTool`. The destructive
- * `deleteExtractRefreshTask` REST call lives ONLY here. NOTE: `visibility` is a client-side hint, not
- * a server guarantee — a non-cooperating client could still call this tool directly. Because a task
- * has no taggable state, AppApprovalEvidence is the ONLY server gate here (see below).
- *
- * Because an extract refresh task has no durable, taggable state, the human gesture in the iframe IS
- * the proof for the app flow: the guard verifies a fresh, single-use in-iframe human approval
- * (AppApprovalEvidence, namespace 'delete-extract-refresh-task') recorded by the
- * delete-extract-refresh-task preview within the MUTATION_PREVIEW_TTL_MINUTES window. (The preview's
- * server-generated nonce is only for the flag-OFF model path; the app does not carry it.) Missing
- * approval → PreviewNotRunError, no delete.
- *
- * Gated behind the off-by-default `mcp-apps` flag AND ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED, so when the flag is off
- * the model never sees a destructive tool that lacks a preview path.

-  Deletes an extract refresh task from the Tableau site. This permanently removes the scheduled extract refresh — the underlying data source or workbook is not affected, but it will no longer be refreshed on this schedule.
-
-  This tool is restricted to Tableau site administrators and requires the \`ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED\` feature flag to be enabled.
-
-  This tool is **two-phase** to keep the destructive action safe:
-
-  1. **Preview (default — \`confirm\` omitted or false):** reports what would be deleted and returns a single-use confirmation token. Nothing is deleted.
-  2. **Delete (\`confirm: true\`):** permanently removes the task. Requires the \`confirmationToken\` from a prior preview call (the server verifies and consumes it). The token is server-generated and unguessable, so this gate genuinely requires the preview phase to have run; it cannot be bypassed by computing a value.
-
-  **Required human confirmation:** After preview, present the task to the user and get explicit approval before calling again with \`confirm: true\`. Do not auto-confirm — get the user's explicit approval first.
-
-  Use this tool when you need to:
-  - Remove a scheduled extract refresh that is no longer needed
-  - Disable refresh schedules for under-used or decommissioned content
-  - Optimize site resources by eliminating unnecessary extract refreshes
-
-  **Parameters:**
-  - \`taskId\` (required) – The ID of the extract refresh task to delete. Obtain this from the \`list-extract-refresh-tasks\` tool.
-  - \`confirm\` (optional) – Set \`true\` to perform the deletion (requires the confirmation token from a prior preview). Defaults to preview.
-  - \`confirmationToken\` (optional) – The single-use token returned by the preview call. Required when \`confirm\` is true.
-
-  **Response:** A confirmation message indicating the task was successfully deleted, or — in preview — the confirmation token to supply on the confirmed call.
-
-  **Note:** This operation is irreversible. The extract refresh task cannot be recovered once deleted. To re-enable scheduled refreshes, a new task must be created. Tableau Cloud uses \`tableau:tasks:delete\` scope.

+  Retrieves detailed information about a specific Tableau Prep flow, including the flow's metadata (name, description, owner, project, tags, parameters), its output step IDs and names, and optionally its input connections and recent run history. This is the primary tool to use when a user asks about a specific flow's structure, contents, recent runs, or input data sources.
+
+  **Returned Fields**
+  - Flow metadata: id, name, description, webpageUrl, fileType, createdAt, updatedAt, project, owner, tags, parameters.
+  - \`outputSteps\`: array of \`{id, name}\` for each output step in the flow.
+  - \`connections\` (when \`includeConnections=true\`): array of input data connections (id, type, serverAddress, userName, embedPassword).
+  - \`flowRuns\` (when \`includeFlowRuns=true\`, on Tableau versions that support the flow-runs endpoint): up to \`flowRunLimit\` most-recent flow runs (id, status, startedAt, completedAt, progress, backgroundJobId), newest first.
+  - \`mcp.warnings\` (only when warnings are emitted): list of non-fatal issues. Warning types include:
+    - \`SIDECAR_FETCH_FAILED\`: an optional sidecar fetch (connections or runs) failed; the rest of the response is still valid.
+    - \`VERSION_GATE_SKIPPED\`: this Tableau version does not support the flow-runs endpoint.
+    - \`FLOW_RUNS_TRUNCATED\`: the flow has more historical runs than \`flowRunLimit\`. The returned \`flowRuns\` array is the most-recent slice; older runs exist but are NOT included. **Always inspect \`mcp.warnings\` before reporting "complete history" to the user.**
+
+  **Response-Size Guidance**
+  By default this tool returns metadata + output steps + all connections + the 10 most-recent runs. Each sidecar adds payload, so prefer the narrowest call that answers the user's question:
+  - **Just metadata / "what is this flow?"**: pass \`includeConnections: false\` and \`includeFlowRuns: false\`. This is the cheapest call and the right default when the user only asks about ownership, project, description, or output steps. The Tableau API scopes requested at sign-in are narrowed accordingly, so this path also succeeds against connected apps that only grant \`tableau:flows:read\`.
+  - **"What does this flow read from?"**: keep \`includeConnections: true\`, set \`includeFlowRuns: false\`. Connections are usually a handful per flow, but complex flows can have 10+.
+  - **"Did the latest run succeed?" / "What's the status?"**: keep \`includeFlowRuns: true\` but set \`flowRunLimit: 1\` (or 3) — the default of 10 is wasteful for a single-status check.
+  - **"Show me the run history"**: keep \`includeFlowRuns: true\` and raise \`flowRunLimit\` only as far as the user actually needs (max 100 per call).
+  - When in doubt, prefer the lower limit — you can always re-call with a higher limit if the first response is insufficient.
+
+  **Run-history truncation (important)**
+  A single call returns at most \`flowRunLimit\` runs (newest first). If the flow has more, the response carries a \`FLOW_RUNS_TRUNCATED\` warning — the ONLY signal that the window is partial, so never report a truncated window as the complete history. To see more: re-call with a higher \`flowRunLimit\` (max 100); for deeper history or a specific date range, use the Tableau Flow Runs REST API directly (\`filter=flowId:eq:<id>\` with \`pageNumber\` pagination, or a \`startedAt\` date filter).
+
+  **Limitations**
+  - Error details for \`Failed\` flow runs are not exposed in this version of the tool. The \`status\` field is available; the underlying job error message is not.
+  - The \`flowRuns\` field reflects ad-hoc runs returned by the public REST API; per-output-step details are not included.
+  - A single call returns at most 100 \`flowRuns\` (\`flowRunLimit\` max). Tableau's Flow Runs endpoint does not expose a total-count field, so the tool cannot tell you exactly how many runs exist beyond what was returned — only that more do (via the \`FLOW_RUNS_TRUNCATED\` warning).
+
+  **Example Usage**
+  - Get a flow's metadata and output steps only (cheapest call, no sidecars):
+      flowId: "d00700fe-28a0-4ece-a7af-5543ddf38a82"
+      includeConnections: false
+      includeFlowRuns: false
+  - Get a flow plus its data connections (no run history):
+      flowId: "d00700fe-28a0-4ece-a7af-5543ddf38a82"
+      includeFlowRuns: false
+  - Get a flow and only the most recent run (status check):
+      flowId: "d00700fe-28a0-4ece-a7af-5543ddf38a82"
+      flowRunLimit: 1
+  - Get a flow with the 5 most-recent runs:
+      flowId: "d00700fe-28a0-4ece-a7af-5543ddf38a82"
+      flowRunLimit: 5`,

+    description: `
+  Retrieves a list of Tableau Prep flows on a Tableau site, including each flow's metadata such as name, description, owner, project, tags, and timestamps. Supports optional filtering via field:operator:value expressions (e.g., name:eq:DailySalesCleanup) and sorting (e.g., createdAt:desc) for precise discovery. Use this tool when a user requests to list, search, or filter Tableau Prep flows on a site.
+
+  **Caller-role visibility (important for sizing)**
+  - **Non-admin** callers get only flows they can view — on shared sites usually far more than they own, so an unfiltered call is rarely "just my flows".
+  - **Admin** callers get EVERY flow on the site (often thousands on enterprise sites), so \`mcp.resultInfo.truncated\` is much more likely \`true\` on the first call.
+
+  **Response Shape**
+  Returns a JSON object \`{ flows: [...], mcp: { resultInfo: {...} } }\`. The \`flows\` array contains one record per flow. \`mcp.resultInfo\` is ALWAYS present and tells you whether the returned list is complete:
+  - \`returnedCount\` — number of flows in \`flows\`.
+  - \`truncated\` — \`false\` means \`flows\` is the COMPLETE set matching the request (every flow the caller can see, subject to any \`filter\`). \`true\` means more matching flows exist on the server than were returned.
+  - \`truncationReason\` (present only when \`truncated\` is \`true\`):
+      - \`"requested-limit"\` — the \`limit\` you passed cut the result short. To get more, call again with a higher \`limit\` (or omit it).
+      - \`"admin-cap"\` — a site-administrator per-call cap (\`MAX_RESULT_LIMIT[S]\`) cut the result short. \`limit\` cannot raise it, so either narrow the \`filter\` (by \`projectId\`, \`projectName\`, \`ownerName\`, or a tighter \`createdAt\`/\`updatedAt\` window) so the matching set fits, or ask the administrator to raise the cap.
+  - \`totalAvailable\` (present only when no server-side allow-list is configured) — total flows matching the request on the server. When \`truncated\` is \`true\`, report "N of M" (e.g. "showing 100 of 430") instead of "at least N".
+
+  **Reporting to the user (every call):** translate \`mcp.resultInfo\` into one plain sentence — never say "resultInfo"/"warnings". \`truncated:false\` → "these are all N matching flows". \`"requested-limit"\` → "here are the first N of M; more match — say if you want the rest". \`"admin-cap"\` → "here are the first N of M; a site limit caps results per call — I can narrow the search, or an admin can raise the cap" (use \`totalAvailable\` for M when present; otherwise say "at least N", never N as the total).
+
+  **Response-Size Guidance** — favour narrow calls (each record includes project, owner, tags, and parameters):
+  - **Targeted lookup** ("does flow X exist?"): pass \`filter\` + a small \`limit\` (e.g. 5).
+  - **Scoped exploration** ("flows in the Finance project"): pass \`filter\` + a moderate \`limit\` (25–50).
+  - **Broad analytics**: a moderate \`limit\` (e.g. 100); only omit \`limit\` when the user explicitly asks for the full/exhaustive set.
+
+  **Supported Filter Fields and Operators**
+  | Field       | Operators            | Notes |
+  |-------------|----------------------|-------|
+  | createdAt   | eq, gt, gte, lt, lte | ISO 8601 timestamp \`YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ\`, OR date-only \`YYYY-MM-DD\` (auto-promoted to midnight UTC) |
+  | name        | eq, in               | Flow name (case-sensitive — pass exact case; whitespace-sensitive) |
+  | ownerName   | eq                   | **Matches the user's display name (\`fullName\`), NOT login name or email.** See "ownerName semantics" below. |
+  | projectId   | eq                   | Project UUID (most reliable owner-of-project filter) |
+  | projectName | eq, in               | Project name (case-sensitive — pass exact case; whitespace-sensitive) |
+  | updatedAt   | eq, gt, gte, lt, lte | ISO 8601 timestamp \`YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ\`, OR date-only \`YYYY-MM-DD\` (auto-promoted to midnight UTC) |
+
+  **Filter value contracts (important)** — mismatches silently return 0 results with no error, so these matter:
+  - **\`ownerName\`** matches the owner's \`fullName\` (display name) ONLY — not \`user.name\`/login/email or user id. It is the only owner filter (the API exposes no \`ownerEmail\`/\`ownerDomain\`/\`ownerId\`). Given an email or id, resolve the \`fullName\` first (Users REST API, or read \`owner.fullName\` from a prior response). On an empty result that looks like this mistake, the tool returns a recovery hint.
+  - **\`projectId\`** must be the project UUID; any other value (including a project name) returns 0. On a non-UUID value the tool hints toward \`projectName:eq:<name>\`.
+  - **\`name\`, \`projectName\`** are case- and whitespace-sensitive (per the Tableau REST spec) — pass the exact, trimmed value as it appears in Tableau.
+  - **\`createdAt\`, \`updatedAt\`** accept full ISO 8601 with the \`Z\` suffix (\`2025-01-01T00:00:00Z\`) or date-only \`YYYY-MM-DD\` (promoted to midnight UTC). Locale forms (\`MM/DD/YYYY\`), no-timezone, and \`+00:00\` offsets are rejected client-side.
+  - **\`in:\` lists** use bracket/comma form \`name:in:[Foo,Bar]\` — unquoted; commas inside items are unsupported (a Tableau limitation).
+
+  ${genericFilterDescription}
+
+  **Sort Expression**
+  - Use the same field set as filtering, with \`:asc\` or \`:desc\` suffix (e.g., \`createdAt:desc\`).
+  - Sort and filter can be combined.
+
+  **Example Usage:**
+  - List flows named "DailySalesCleanup": filter: "name:eq:DailySalesCleanup"
+  - List flows in a project by id: filter: "projectId:eq:6f8a2966-e173-11e8-ae74-ffd84c19d7f3"
+  - List flows updated after a date, newest first: filter: "updatedAt:gt:2025-01-01", sort: "updatedAt:desc"
+  - List flows owned by a user (value MUST be the display name \`fullName\`, not login/email): filter: "ownerName:eq:Jane Doe"`,

+  Updates the site role of a user on the Tableau site. Primary use case: downgrade inactive users to "Unlicensed" to reclaim licenses.
+
+  This tool is restricted to Tableau site administrators and requires the \`ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED\` feature flag to be enabled.
+
+  This tool is **two-phase** to protect against accidental role changes:
+
+  1. **Preview (default — \`confirm\` omitted or false):** looks up the user, reports the current and proposed site role, and returns a single-use confirmation token. Nothing is changed.
+  2. **Update (\`confirm: true\`):** applies the role change. Requires the \`confirmationToken\` from a prior preview of this same \`userId\` and \`siteRole\` (the server verifies and consumes it).
+
+  The token is server-generated and bound to the previewed \`userId\` and \`siteRole\`: a token minted while previewing role A cannot confirm an update to role B. Present the change to the user and get explicit approval before confirming.
+
+  **Required human confirmation:** After preview, present the change to the user and get explicit approval before calling again with \`confirm: true\`. Do not auto-confirm.
+
+  **Parameters:**
+  - \`userId\` (required) – The LUID of the user to update. Obtain from \`list-users\`.
+  - \`siteRole\` (required) – The new site role. Valid values: Creator, Explorer, ExplorerCanPublish, SiteAdministratorCreator, SiteAdministratorExplorer, Viewer, Unlicensed.
+  - \`confirm\` (optional) – Set \`true\` to apply the change (requires confirmationToken).
+  - \`confirmationToken\` (optional) – The single-use token from the preview. Required when \`confirm\` is true.
+
+  **Response:** Confirmation message with the user's updated site role.

- * confirm-delete-workbook — the human-gesture confirm step of the MCP-Apps HITL flow for

- *
- * This tool is APP-ONLY (`meta.ui.visibility = ['app']`), so a cooperating MCP client hides it from
- * the model — exactly like get-oauth-token. In that cooperative flow the only path that reaches it is
- * a human clicking "Confirm" inside the rendered MCP-Apps iframe, which calls back via
- * `app.callServerTool`. The destructive `deleteWorkbook` REST call lives ONLY here. NOTE: `visibility`
- * is a client-side hint, not a server guarantee — a non-cooperating client could still call this tool
- * directly; the TagEvidence + AppApprovalEvidence gate below is what the server actually enforces.
- *
- * The guard verifies BOTH (AllEvidence):
- *   - a fresh in-iframe human approval (AppApprovalEvidence) recorded by the delete-workbook preview
- *     within the MUTATION_PREVIEW_TTL_MINUTES window, single-use; and
- *   - the live `pending-deletion` tag (TagEvidence), re-fetched server-side and un-forgeable.
- * Either missing → PreviewNotRunError, no delete. The composite can only ever narrow access.
- *
- * Gated behind the off-by-default `mcp-apps` flag AND ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED, so when the flag is off
- * the model never sees a destructive tool that lacks a preview path.

-Permanently deletes a workbook from the current Tableau Cloud site. Restricted to Tableau site
-administrators and requires the \`ADMIN_TOOLS_ENABLED\` feature flag.
-
-This tool is **two-phase** to keep the destructive action safe:
-
-1. **Preview (default — \`confirm\` omitted or false):** tags the workbook as pending deletion
-   (reversible, visible in the Tableau UI; label configurable via \`tag\`, default
-   \`${DEFAULT_PENDING_DELETION_TAG}\`), reports the workbook name, project, and owner, and does
-   **not** delete anything.
-2. **Delete (\`confirm: true\`):** permanently removes the workbook. Before deleting, the server
-   re-fetches the workbook and verifies it is tagged as pending deletion (the tag applied in step 1).
-   If the tag is absent the deletion is rejected — this is a server-authoritative gate that genuinely
-   requires the preview phase to have run; it cannot be bypassed by computing a token, because the
-   caller has no way to set the tag other than by previewing. On Tableau Cloud the workbook is moved
-   to the recycle bin and can be restored for a limited time before permanent removal (see
-   ${RECYCLE_BIN_DOC_URL}).
-
-**Required human confirmation:** After preview, present the workbook (name, project, owner) to the
-user and get explicit approval before calling again with \`confirm: true\`. Do not auto-confirm — get
-the user's explicit approval first.
-
-**Parameters:**
-- \`workbookId\` (required) – The LUID of the workbook. Obtain it from \`list-workbooks\`.
-- \`confirm\` (optional) – Set \`true\` to perform the deletion (requires the pending-deletion tag from
-  a prior preview). Defaults to preview.
-- \`tag\` (optional) – Preview tag label. Defaults to \`${DEFAULT_PENDING_DELETION_TAG}\`. If you
-  previewed with a custom tag, pass the same value when confirming.

- * The tool is two-phase (preview→confirm): the first call (confirm omitted/false) deletes nothing

- * passes that token with confirm: true to perform the irreversible delete. This mirrors the

+ * E2E coverage for the admin-only, mutating `update-user` tool.
+ *
+ * The tool is two-phase with a server-authoritative preview→confirm gate: the first call (confirm
+ * omitted/false) reports the current and proposed site role, changes nothing, and returns a
+ * server-generated single-use `confirmationToken` bound to the previewed `userId:siteRole`. The
+ * second call passes `confirm: true` plus that token; the server verifies and consumes it before
+ * applying the role change.
+ *
+ * Preview and bogus-token tests are gated behind `UPDATE_USER_E2E_ID` — set it to a disposable
+ * user LUID on the site. The mutating leg is gated behind a separate `UPDATE_USER_E2E_DESTRUCTIVE_ID`
+ * — set it to a disposable user LUID that you don't mind being downgraded to Unlicensed.
