Use this skill when adding, registering, or theming a new ISpect log type / log key (e.g. "add a ws-state log", "register a new log key", "new trace category", "my custom log has no color/icon"). It is the checklist for wiring a key end to end so nothing is missed — core registration, console color, UI color, icon, title, and localized description.

Use this skill when adding, registering, or theming a new ISpect log type / log key (e.g. "add a ws-state log", "register a new log key", "new trace category", "my custom log has no color/icon"). It is the checklist for wiring a key end to end so nothing is missed — core registration, console color, UI color, icon, title, and localized description.
Add A Log Type
A log key lives in two packages with two independent color systems. Miss a
step and the key silently falls back to defaults (gray console line, no icon,
key shown as its raw string). Wire every item below.
Add it to the builtIn list — this is what the filter UI enumerates; omit it and the type is undiscoverable.
Add an ANSI console pen to the _defaultPens map ('my-key': AnsiPen()..xterm(NN)). This is the console color, separate from the UI palette below — keep the two visually consistent.
New category only: add the id to lib/src/trace/trace_category_ids.dart (and its builtIn set), then a ISpectTraceCategory in lib/src/trace/trace_categories.dart.
Emitter: add a method on the domain extension in lib/src/trace/extensions/<domain>.dart that calls traceCategory(...). If the key is not the success/error/secondary of a request/response (e.g. a lifecycle/state event), pass an explicit logKey: ISpectLogType.xxx.key — ISpectTraceCategory.pickLogKey only maps success/error/secondary and would otherwise mislabel it.
UI — packages/ispect
lib/src/core/res/constants/ispect_log_palette.dart — add the key to both the light map and the dark map.
lib/src/core/res/constants/ispect_log_icons.dart — add an icon.
Localization (ARB is the source; generated files are rebuilt):
Add "myKeyLogDesc": "…" to lib/src/core/localization/translations/intl_en.arb (the template — required).
Optionally add real translations to other intl_*.arb; locales without it fall back to the English template (the existing ws-error precedent).
Regenerate: cd packages/ispect && flutter gen-l10n. Never hand-edit lib/src/core/localization/generated/**. untranslated.json is a generated, git-ignored report — do not commit it.
Verify
cd packages/ispectify && dart analyze --fatal-infos && dart test
cd packages/ispect && flutter analyze --fatal-infos && flutter test
dart format the changed Dart files.
Gotchas
Two color systems. Console color = ANSI pen in log_type.dart; UI color = palette in ispect. Updating one and not the other is the most common miss (a gray console line next to a colored chip).
builtIn list. Forgetting it means the key works but never appears in the filter UI.
Stable keys. Never rename an existing key (http-request, ws-sent, db-query, …) — filters and exported sessions depend on them. New keys are additive.
ISpectLogType is a final class, not an enum — no values/exhaustive switches.
