# Install and place "cascader-002" (Level Columns) from VibeUI

## 1. Install first — do not skip, do not recreate
Run this exact command before writing any code:
npx shadcn@latest add https://vibeui.ru/r/cascader-002.json

Registry item: https://vibeui.ru/r/cascader-002.json
Installs to: components/vibeui/cascader-002.tsx (the exact path follows this project's components.json aliases).
npm dependencies: none.
Registry dependencies: none.

Install it from the registry. Do not recreate it from the description,
do not substitute a similar component from another library, and do not
rewrite it to match the project's existing style.

## 2. What it is
A column cascader: three levels of the tree stand side by side, the chosen parent stays highlighted on the left, and an empty column holds its place with a hint.

A column cascader: three levels visible at once, the chosen path highlighted all the way down, a path line and a reset below. One file, zero dependencies, the only client state is the current path.

## 3. How to use it
import { Cascader002 } from "@/components/vibeui/cascader-002"

<Cascader002 heading="Catalogue section" accent="#4f46e5" />

Read the installed file for the full prop list.

## 4. Where to place it
This is a small inline component. Put it exactly where the user asked,
inside the existing markup. Do not create a new page, section or
wrapper for it. If a similar control already sits in that spot,
replace it instead of adding a second one.

Placement: ___
(The user fills this line in. If it is still blank, ask where to put it
instead of guessing.)

## 5. Keep exactly as installed
- the local --vibeui-cascader-002-* palette — do not swap it for your theme tokens
- the three permanent slots in the grid: if an empty column disappears, the panel jumps in width on every click
- the fixed grid height with scrolling inside a column — otherwise a long level stretches the whole panel
- trimming the path when a higher level is picked: without it stale columns from the previous branch stay on the right
- aria-current on the selected option — a colour highlight alone is not announced by a screen reader
- the panel's own light surface: dark text disappears on the dark catalogue card

## 6. You may change
- the panel heading through heading
- the accent colour through accent
- the shape and depth of the tree through tree
- the panel width through max-width on the root

## 7. Rules
- A tree deeper than three levels will not fit: a fourth column needs horizontal scrolling of the grid.
- The result is a path array, not a single node: the form logic has to be built around an array.
- At 360 px three 1fr columns get cramped — a stepwise cascader fits that width better.
- Do not lift the CSS variables into globals.css: the component has to stay a single file.

## 8. Verify
- it renders with no console errors;
- it looks like the preview on the VibeUI page you copied this from;
- if it does not, you changed something listed in section 5 — put it back.

For developers

npx shadcn@latest add https://vibeui.ru/r/cascader-002.json
https://vibeui.ru/r/cascader-002.json

Компонент самодостаточен: один файл, без зависимостей, собственная палитра в локальных переменных --vibeui-cascader-002-*. Клиентский: путь выбора живёт в useState. Колонки считаются из дерева по текущему пути, но сетка всегда держит три слота — при коротком пути слот занимает подсказка, поэтому панель не меняет ширину на каждый клик. Выбор в колонке обрезает путь до её уровня, поэтому устаревшие правые колонки исчезают сами. Высота сетки фиксирована, прокрутка своя у каждой колонки: иначе длинный уровень растягивает всю панель.

Component source

The same file your agent installs. Here in case you would rather copy it by hand.

"use client"

import { useState } from "react"
import type { CSSProperties } from "react"

export type Cascader002Node = {
  label: string
  children?: Cascader002Node[]
}

export type Cascader002Props = {
  heading?: string
  tree?: Cascader002Node[]
  accent?: string
  className?: string
  style?: CSSProperties
}

// Идея компонента: все уровни дерева видны одновременно — три колонки рядом,
// как в файловом менеджере. Список не перерисовывается на месте, поэтому
// глазами видно, откуда пришёл выбор: родитель остаётся подсвеченным слева.
// Пустые колонки не исчезают, а держат место подсказкой: если колонка
// пропадает, панель прыгает по ширине на каждый клик.
