Implement the canonical Category tag component (selection.category-tag). Category tag: A compact identity or selection element that communicates choice, category, or status. Support these states: default, hover, focus-visible, active, disabled. Use semantic design tokens rather than raw visual values. Preserve a minimum 44px touch target where interactive. Provide and verify: implementation, state-matrix, responsive, keyboard, touch, reduced-motion. Keep the component API stable so every Studio kit can supply its own rendering without changing the behavior contract.
