Rollout strategy
Adoption plan:
IssueTimelinesupplies the timeline container ref and a visible comment ref, owns anchor selection, and reconciles its existing Safari workaround. Upgrading Primer alone won't change timeline behavior.Testing & Reviewing
Open Hooks/useScrollAnchor → Scroll Anchor. Scroll to the highlighted comment, load earlier comments, and toggle the hook to compare. Native scroll anchoring is disabled in the demo to isolate the hook's behavior. Only window scrolling is supported.
Focused hook tests and TypeScript checking pass. Real Safari scrolling and hash-navigation behavior still need verification. Incomplete local dependencies block the build, linting, and Storybook preview.
