USE THIS IN LOVABLE
Add a desktop-only custom cursor system.

Render a fixed 6px white dot that follows the pointer exactly, plus a 32px 1px-bordered ring that lerps toward the pointer at 0.15 inside a single requestAnimationFrame loop using translate3d.

States: elements with data-cursor="view" | "open" | "copy" | "drag" expand the ring to 56px and display that label in uppercase monospace at 10px.

Guards: mount only when matchMedia('(pointer: fine)') matches and reduced motion is off. Keep the native cursor visible over inputs, textareas and code blocks. Never let the cursor layer intercept pointer events.

Tool: Lovable. Apply the changes directly to the existing codebase, reuse the current design tokens and component structure, and do not introduce new dependencies.
