Homepage hero: faint agent-chat backdrop, rare halftone field - #239
Conversation
The hero sits over a faint, full-height log of agents messaging each other: each message opens with its sender's mark (mostly Claude Code and Codex), and messages are backspaced and retyped all over the field, with plenty of familiar assistant-isms. About one page load in ten gets a halftone dot field instead, where message pulses route along rows and columns and the dots part around the cursor. The homepage wash drops its radial highlight so nothing competes with the backdrop. Tool and brand marks export their path data so the canvas draws the same marks the rest of the site renders.

HeroBackdroprendersHeroGhostChatfirst and swaps it after mount. The comment says both canvases start blank. This is not true for reduced motion.With
prefers-reduced-motion: reduce,play()inHeroGhostChatcallsstep(performance.now())synchronously inside its effect. That call draws a full still field. The child effect runs before thesetHalftonecall in theHeroBackdropeffect. The swap then happens in a later render. On the halftone loads, the browser can paint the chat field for a frame beforeHeroHalftonereplaces it.Without reduced motion, the chat mounts, runs
layout(), then unmounts. This is wasted work.Render nothing until the choice is made. The server render and hydration still agree, because both render
null.♻️ Proposed change
- const [halftone, setHalftone] = useState(false); + const [halftone, setHalftone] = useState<boolean | null>(null); useEffect(() => { setHalftone(Math.random() < HALFTONE_SHARE); }, []); - return halftone ? <HeroHalftone /> : <HeroGhostChat />; + if (halftone === null) return null; + return halftone ? <HeroHalftone /> : <HeroGhostChat />;Update the doc comment to match.

HeroBackdrop renders nothing until it has picked, so a halftone load never mounts (or, under reduced motion, paints) the agent chat first. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Summary
The homepage hero sits over a faint, living log of agents talking to each other.
web/components/homepage/HeroGhostChat.tsx): a full-height field of faint monospace messages in columns. Each message opens with its sender's 11px monochrome mark, mostly the Claude Code mascot and the OpenAI mark, with Gemini, Copilot, OpenCode, Cursor, Grok, Hermes and Muse now and then. Messages are backspaced and retyped all over the field, a few at a time. Some span 2–4 rows, and about half the replies are familiar assistant-isms ("you're absolutely right", "let me delve into this", …). Text near the cursor brightens.web/components/homepage/HeroHalftone.tsx): on about 1 in 10 page loads, a breathing dot grid replaces the chat.
