Research direction

Start in tooltip_trigger.rb at the default attrs and inspect the tooltip/default snapshot, then review design/v2/01-research/golden-suite.md. On the 2.0 line, remove the dead variant attribute and re-record the tooltip/* snapshots; done means the reviewed snapshot diff no longer contains that attribute.

Description

bug
  • Where: tooltip_trigger.rb default attrs. Snapshot tooltip/default.
    Already listed in design/v2/01-research/golden-suite.md.
  • Effect: variant is not an HTML attribute and nothing in the CSS
    matches it (the data-[variant=…] selectors match data-variant); the
    outline look comes from the Button inside.
  • Fix: remove it; re-record (on the 2.0 line) tooltip/*.

Surfaced by the golden HTML suite (PR #536), which pins what 1.6 renders today — this defect included. Per maintainer decision (2026-09-19) main stays as is: this is addressed on the 2.0 line, and the golden snapshot that pins it is re-recorded there with the diff reviewed.
