There was a problem hiding this comment.
Reviewed all four variants and their registry entries. Validated cleanup before delayed phases start, unmount during the sweep, and turning the intro off/on: cleanup leaves no pending animation work or later writes, and a restarted sweep completes without being hidden by the old one. The normal timing is preserved. Looks good, thanks!

BorderGlow's
animatedintro sweep is started from auseEffectthat has no cleanup, and itsanimateValuehelper never keeps thesetTimeout/requestAnimationFrameIDs it creates. So once the sweep starts, nothing can stop it:setStateon an unmounted component (Tailwind variants).animatedoff doesn't stop the sweep, and the glow stays visible until the sweep finishes.--cursor-angle/--edge-proximityon the same frames, and the old sweep'sonEndthen hides the glow halfway through the new one.animateValuenow keeps its timer and frame IDs and returns a cancel function. The effect collects the four sweep phases, and its cleanup cancels them and ends the sweep state (sweep-activeclass /sweepActivestate). The change is applied to all four variants and to theirpublic/r/BorderGlow-*.jsonregistry entries.Reproduction and validation
I bundled the actual component files (before and after) into a small page, ran it in Chrome, and counted the helper's rAF callbacks. All four variants gave the same results:
