Summary

Adds the Services page's closing CTA: "Let's scope it properly." This is the last of the 3 remaining content sections for LS-1598 — together with the sections in the earlier stacked PRs, the page's content is now complete.

Stacked on #55 — this branch is feature/ls-1598-services-page-batch-4, based off feature/ls-1598-services-page-batch-3.

CTA pattern

  • Renamed patterns/section-cta.php (an empty, unused stub — no template or pattern anywhere referenced it) to patterns/sections/services-cta.php, built out fully: eyebrow, heading, description, and a single button.
  • The button reuses the exact "Request a systems review" label and /free-consultation/ link already established in services-hero.php, rather than introducing a new destination.
  • Panel set to an 800px max width via contentSize, with align:"wide" removed (it was overriding that constraint).

Shared corner-glow background

  • Added src/scss/structural/corner-glow.scss: a shared, multi-consumer two-corner radial-gradient glow (.ls-corner-glow). color.gradient block support only accepts a single gradient value, not layered gradients — same JSON limitation already documented in search-hero.scss/work-hero.scss/blog-hero.scss.
  • Built to be genuinely reusable across future CTAs with different colors: the two glow colors/opacities are CSS custom properties with sensible fallbacks (effect.hero.brand/effect.hero.cyan), so a future consumer overrides them inline rather than duplicating the file.
  • Wired into inc/animations.php with a real is_page( 'services' ) condition from the start (matching the same-session convention already applied to other Services bundles), package.json, and functions.php.

Fixed

  • The gradient's size was initially decoded wrong from Figma's SVG matrix: the base circle has r="10" (user-space units), scaled by the transform's 76.861 — the actual radius is 10 × 76.861, not 76.861 alone. Using the scale factor alone produced glow blobs roughly 10x too small, reading as small hard circles instead of the intended soft, wide wash. Corrected to 87.5% 172.4% (from 8.75% 17.24%), with the mistake documented directly in the file's own comment.

Test plan

Playwright standing suite (single-page scope, /services/) has passed — accessibility baseline, internal link integrity, page structure, responsive overflow, network/console errors, site health, and search all green. The one remaining failure (404 template console warning) is a pre-existing, unrelated issue tracked separately as LS-2335.

Manual QA checklist

Hero

  • Heading, subheading, intro paragraph — no placeholder text
  • "Request a systems review" button — correct destination, keyboard-focusable, visible hover/focus state
  • "Explore solutions" button — same checks
  • "Services / Lifecycle" widget ("services 14/14 · tokens live") — confirm the count is real, not hardcoded/stale
  • Bottom chip row (14 service tags) — all present, spelled right, styling matches the grid below

Linked decisions ("How the service model works")

  • 6-step pill chain (Discover → Create → Build → Launch → Grow → Evolve) in correct order
  • Click all 6 — each lands on its own /services/{step} page correctly
  • Pill hover/focus states visible

Service clusters ("Five ways the work groups together")

  • All 5 cluster cards present, descriptions read correctly
  • Each card's service tag links go to the right individual service page
  • No overlap/misalignment across breakpoints

"Fourteen services" grid

  • All 14 tiles present, icons match their service
  • Tag lists accurate, not placeholder
  • Spot-check a sample of tile links — confirm destination pages have real content or are intentionally blank stubs
  • Grid reflows sensibly at tablet/mobile

Entry points

  • All 4 cards present, links work

Delivery, by the numbers

  • Stat values are accurate/intentional
  • No awkward wrapping at narrow widths
  • Text contrast comfortable to read

Closing CTA

  • Copy reads correctly, button matches hero's destination

Known, accepted gaps: several /services/*, /solutions/*, /pricing/* pages are intentionally blank stubs created to fix broken links from this page — expect "real content" checks to fail on those until content is written. The 404-template console warning (LS-2335) is separate and pre-existing.

Automated checks

  • npm run schema:validate — all JSON files pass
  • npm run patterns:escape — clean
  • npm run security:scan — clean
  • php -l on the new pattern file — no syntax errors
  • vendor/bin/phpcs --standard=WordPress on the new pattern file and inc/animations.php — clean
  • Verified live on a local WP install: correct copy, panel confirmed at exactly 800px width, gradient background-image computed values confirmed the corrected size/position/color after the fix, stylesheet confirmed loading in <head>
  • Manual visual QA in the Site Editor / cross-browser check

Stacks on #55 (LS-1598).

🟡 Minor · Preserve an icon path for WordPress 6.9, or raise the minimum to 7.1.

patterns/sections/services-service-tiles.php:185
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Preserve an icon path for WordPress 6.9, or raise the minimum to 7.1. This pattern emits core/icon with lightspeed/dot. WordPress 6.9 does not provide core/icon, and the lightspeed collection requires the WordPress 7.1 icon API. Therefore, WordPress 6.9 may treat the block as unknown or missing, and WordPress 7.0 cannot resolve the collection. Preserve compatible markup, or update the minimum-version metadata and support documentation to 7.1+.

- Rename patterns/section-cta.php (empty, unused stub) to
  patterns/sections/services-cta.php, built out: "Let's scope it
  properly." — eyebrow, heading, description, and a single button
  reusing the exact "Request a systems review" button already
  established in services-hero.php (same label, same link)
- Add src/scss/structural/corner-glow.scss: a shared, multi-consumer
  two-corner gradient glow class (.ls-corner-glow) — colours and
  opacities are CSS custom properties so future consumers can
  override them inline instead of duplicating the file
- Wire into build/enqueue like the other sections (real
  is_page('services') condition from the start)

Bug fix
- Corrected a Figma SVG gradient matrix decode error: the gradient's
  base circle has r="10" (user-space units), scaled by the matrix's
  76.861 — actual radius is 10 × 76.861, not 76.861 alone. Using the
  scale factor alone produced blobs ~10x too small, reading as hard
  circles instead of the intended soft, wide wash
- Set the CTA panel to a real 800px max width (contentSize, with
  align:"wide" removed since it was overriding the constraint)
- Rename patterns/section-cta.php (empty, unused stub) to
  patterns/sections/services-cta.php, built out: "Let's scope it

  reusing the exact "Request a systems review" button already

- Use UK-English spelling ("colour"/"colours", "centred") in prose
  documentation comments in services-cta.php and CHANGELOG.md,
  matching AGENTS.md's own established convention — CSS property
  names and values are unaffected, only English prose
Bug fix
- services-service-tiles.php: replace the last remaining
  outermost/icon-block instance on the Services page (the "All
  Services" eyebrow dot) with core/icon referencing
  lightspeed/dot, matching the block type already used by the
  other 6 section eyebrows on this page

Context
- Completes the LS-3229 icon-block migration for this page — PR
  #50 migrated the hero, linked-decisions and service-clusters
  patterns, but this file was added later and was missed
- The dot now renders visually small/padded like the other
  eyebrows, matching them exactly — that's expected, not a
  regression here: the underlying SVG padding is tracked
  separately in LS-4168 (ls-plugin fix, not a theme change)
Bug fix
- corner-glow.scss: fix "Request a systems review" button
  spilling out past the CTA card's rounded border at narrow
  viewports (confirmed live at 320px)
- Root cause: the button's flex-item wrapper had no min-width
  override, so flexbox's default min-width:auto refused to let
  it shrink below its white-space:nowrap text width, ignoring
  the shared core/button max-inline-size:100% rule entirely
- Scoped the fix to buttons inside .ls-corner-glow only (min-
  width:0 to allow shrinking, white-space:normal to let the
  text wrap) rather than changing core/button's shared styles
  sitewide, since every other button context has enough room

Context
- Rebuilt assets/css/corner-glow.css via npm run build:css
- Verified at 320px (wraps cleanly, no overflow) and 768px
  (unaffected, still single-line)
