New Mosaic UserButton: account + org switcher (multi-session + org select/suggest/invite) behind a popover. Presentational view only; controller is follow-up.

  • flat exports UserButtonRoot/Trigger/Popup + all-in-one UserButton
  • new popover primitive bridge; ported icon glyphs to mosaic registry
  • swingset docs: Default/Personal/MultipleSessions

Deferred: useUserButtonController(), pagination, real avatars.
Note: added optional onUpgrade (design shows Upgrade link); accent purple hardcoded (no token yet).

Preserve __source when constructing the story module.

The story exports its raw source, but this manually built module drops it, preventing AccountButton code footers from rendering.

Proposed fix
 import {
+  __source as accountButtonSource,
   Default as AccountButtonDefault,
   meta as accountButtonMeta,
   MultipleAccounts as AccountButtonMultipleAccounts,
   Personal as AccountButtonPersonal,
 } from '../stories/account-button.stories';

 const accountButtonModule: StoryModule = {
   meta: accountButtonMeta,
+  __source: accountButtonSource,
   Default: AccountButtonDefault,

As per path instructions, Components-layer stories export __source to enable code footers.

# AccountButton

The account & organization switcher that sits behind the user button. The active account sits at the
top with its organizations (including any **suggested** workspaces you can Join), and **additional
accounts** are listed below. Hovering the active account reveals **Sign out**; clicking any additional
account switches to it. **Settings / Members** open the combined profile modal, and the surface also
exposes **Add organization**, **Add account**, and **Sign out of all accounts**.

It is the styled Mosaic component composed from the headless `@clerk/headless` popover primitive plus
slot recipes, and inherits the primitive's open/close behavior, focus management, and ARIA wiring. This
first pass is presentational: the parts render from the props on `AccountButtonRoot` (mock data in the
examples). A `useAccountButtonController()` that reads live Clerk resources is a drop-in follow-up.

## Example

<Story
name='Default'
storyModule={AccountButtonStories}
/>

Use the Archetype C documentation structure.

Lead with one short paragraph describing owned state and wired lower-layer pieces, followed by one <Story> whose composition array names each direct dependency. The current multiple-story layout follows neither requirement.

As per path instructions, Archetype C MDX must use a single ownership/composition paragraph followed by one Story with a dependency composition array.

Wire the stories into the playground knobs.

Set meta.styles to accountButtonRecipe, add the local knobsAsProps cast, and spread the resulting props into each AccountButton. The current stories discard every playground value.

As per path instructions, story functions must cast Record<string, unknown> through knobsAsProps, and Mosaic recipe metadata must be assigned to meta.styles.

Complete the public API documentation and return types.

The exported resource, callback, and props contracts—especially onUpgrade—lack customer-facing field semantics, while the four exported components have no explicit return types. Add comprehensive JSDoc and React.JSX.Element annotations, then request Docs-team review.

As per coding guidelines, all public APIs require comprehensive JSDoc and explicit return types. As per path instructions, public JSDoc under packages/** feeds generated Clerk Docs.

Do not publish an inert status state.

status='loading' renders the complete ready UI and still requires every ready-state resource. Remove status for v1, or make AccountButtonData a real discriminated union with a loading rendering path; correcting this after release would constrain @clerk/ui compatibility.

As per coding guidelines, use discriminated unions for state management and keep packages/ui APIs backwards-compatible.

Expose the active row to assistive technology.

The check icon is purely visual. Mark the selection control with aria-current so screen-reader users can identify the active account or organization.

         <button

…, Avatar, and Menu

Replaces the 24-slot user-button recipe and the hand-rolled Row/Avatar leaves with
the shared components. The trigger is now the avatar alone, and the per-account
actions (Create organization, Manage account, Sign out) move into an Item.Actions
menu on the account label row.
An xs row is a single line; a title plus a description only fits on md.
A menu rendered inside a popover has a floating parent node id, so keying
nesting off that alone made it hover-open, place itself side-start, and
swallow mouse clicks. Require a parent menu context too.
Portalled siblings share a container and stack by DOM order, so a menu
opened from inside a popover already paints above it. The explicit
z-index only defeated that and buried the menu.
The workspace list is grouped under its account's email, so the personal
row no longer repeats there. Every account renders as that email row with
a `•••` menu. Without organizations there is nothing to head, so other
accounts become md rows you click to switch.
…element

Escape now closes one level: the menu, leaving its parent popover or menu open. An outside press still dismisses the whole stack.
The trigger hardcoded a full radius, so a square workspace mark got a circular focus ring. It now takes the same radius token the avatar uses for that shape.
Popover.Trigger now carries the public .cl-popover-trigger class, so it can be targeted like the positioner and popup. A consumer className still merges rather than replacing it.
--cl-radius-inner/control/element/container become sm/md/lg/xl.
Nudges the popup along the alignment axis, the counterpart to sideOffset.
