Hold Cmd (Mac) / Ctrl (Win) while hovering to scan through invisible overlays, empty container wrappers, and opacity:0 animation ghosts to select the actual content underneath. Two-pass pierce algorithm: 1. Find elements with direct text content (skips empty wrappers) 2. Smallest visible element fallback (catches visual-only elements) Also improves element identification: direct text content is now checked before class names, so "$54" shows instead of "styles.price". Visual indicators: dashed highlight border and "⇣ deep select" label in the hover tooltip when pierce mode is active. Adds animated demo to the features page with keyboard shortcut entry.

- deep-select.test.tsx: 13 tests for pierce mode behavior - element-identification.test.ts: 9 tests for direct text content - react-detection.test.ts: tests for Remotion/RefForwarding skip patterns - Add test script to package.json Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…gn demo - Fix delay: add keydown/keyup listeners so pressing Cmd instantly re-evaluates hover without requiring mouse movement - Same element: when pierce finds same element as normal hover, suppress pierce indicator (solid border stays) - Remove arrow label: delete "⇣ deep select" text and hoverPierceIndicator CSS — dashed outline is sufficient - Redesign demo: replace inbox scenario with landing page hero + motion.div wrapper, gradient CTA, social proof, entrance animation - Add dual cursor (crosshair/pointer) and human-like popup interaction - Add <motion.div> label hint on wrapper boundary

Hold Cmd (Mac) / Ctrl (Win) while hovering to scan through invisible overlays, empty container wrappers, and opacity:0 animation ghosts to select the actual content underneath.
How it works
Two-pass pierce algorithm:
Also improves element identification: direct text content is now checked before class names, so "$54" shows instead of "styles.price".
Visual indicators
Instant response
Pressing Cmd/Ctrl instantly re-evaluates the hover target via keydown/keyup listeners — no mouse movement required. Previously only mousemove triggered evaluation, causing a perceived delay.
Feature demo
Animated demo on the features page showing a landing page hero wrapped in a motion.div animation container:
Keyboard shortcut entry added to the shortcuts table.
