Pull request overview
This PR addresses styling regressions when @serverlessworkflow/diagram-editor is embedded inside a Shadow DOM host (e.g., via Web Components), where Tailwind “base/preflight” CSS variables (like --tw-border-style) may not be present, causing Start/End nodes to lose expected border styling.
Changes:
- Add explicit
border-solidutilities to Start/End node (and related terminal marker) styles so borders render correctly without relying on Tailwind preflight variables. - Align the affected node styles to use gray palette utilities (gray-*) consistently.
- Add a changeset to publish the fix as a patch release.
