Research direction

The issue lacks a clear description of the expected behavior. First, examine how the color picker components (Alpha, Hue, Saturation) are currently implemented, likely in the `packages` directory. Understand the controlled/uncontrolled pattern used. Then, implement logic to switch from controlled to uncontrolled when the component receives focus. Look for similar patterns in the codebase or in React documentation. The PR should include tests to ensure the behavior works as intended.
