Options

The Card supports padding and three interaction shapes — static, link, and button.

Variants

Card renders one of three shapes based on which props are passed: neither href nor onPress renders a non-interactive <div> surface; href renders a whole-card link (<a>); onPress renders a whole-card button (<button>). Interactive cards require a label for their accessible name.

Padding

Interactive Card

Both interactive shapes use a stretched hit target that covers the full surface, so the entire card — not just its text — responds to a click or tap. Their accessible name comes from the required label prop, not from the visible content.

Behavior

Only the interactive variants — link and button — respond to hover, focus, and disabled states. The static variant has no interactive behavior.

Visual States

Hover lifts the surface with a stronger shadow, and keyboard focus draws a ring around the whole card. Disabled — button cards only, since links have no disabled state — dims the surface and suppresses the hover lift.

Usage Guidelines

When to Use

Use the Card when:
  • Grouping related content – Related content needs a contained surface to stand apart from its surroundings.
  • Making the whole surface one action – The entire card opens a destination or runs a single action. Pass a link or press action with a label.
  • Combining a card action with nested controls – An interactive card’s content includes its own buttons or links, which stay independently operable.
  • Presenting static content – The surface needs no hover, focus, or press behavior.

When not to use

Avoid using the Card for:
  • Showing content the agent generated in the chat transcript – Use the Artifact Card instead.
  • Presenting proposed changes for review – Use the Guidance Card instead.
  • Opening a destination in a new tab – Link cards have no new-tab support. Use the Link instead.

Keyboard Interaction

Keyboard interaction applies only to the interactive variants — link and button. The static variant is not focusable.
