Token Count: ~847 tokens (estimated at ~4 chars per token)

Token Savings Analysis

Metric	Without classmcp	With classmcp	Savings
Characters	~11,388	~3,388	70.3%
Tokens (est.)	~2,847	~847	70.3%
Class attributes	47	47	-
Avg chars/class	89	15	83.1%

With Minification (Single-char classes)

When using minified class names:

SSR Safety Analysis

SSR-Safe Patterns (No hydration issues)

All patterns using CSS-only states are SSR-safe:

Category	SSR-Safe	Total	Percentage
Buttons	12	12	100%
Cards	9	9	100%
Forms	10	10	100%
Badges	6	6	100%
Alerts	5	5	100%
Avatars	6	6	100%
Layout	40	40	100%
Typography	15	15	100%
Backgrounds	50+	50+	100%
Fonts	60+	60+	100%
Icons	150+	150+	100%

Client-Only Patterns (Require JS hydration)

Some patterns have JS-controlled states that may cause hydration issues:

modal, modal-overlay, modal-content - JS toggles visibility
dropdown-menu - JS controls open/closed state
toggle, toggle-checked - JS controls checked state
accordion states - JS controls expanded state

These patterns are marked with ssr.safe: false and include warnings.
