Ask for the exact thing.

Implement the canonical Code block component (data.code-block). Code block: A structured display for reading, comparing, or inspecting information. Support these states: default, loading, empty, error. Use semantic design tokens rather than raw visual values. Preserve a minimum appropriatepx touch target where interactive. Provide and verify: implementation, state-matrix, responsive, reduced-motion. Keep the component API stable so every Studio kit can supply its own rendering without changing the behavior contract.
