liquid-metal-border
Add and tune animated liquid-metal WebGL borders with the React `metal-fx` package. Use when buttons, icon controls, chips, tabs, cards, or selected surfaces need a metallic active, selected, hover, focus, or premium border; when implementing the MetalFx component from metal.jakubantalik.com; or when troubleshooting its presets, themes, strength, glow, reflections, sizing, radius, animation, accessibility, SSR, or performance.

# Liquid Metal Border
## Core Contract
1. Use `metal-fx` in React 18 or newer.
2. Wrap exactly one real host element such as a `button`, `a`, `div`, or `article`.
3. Keep the host semantic and interactive. `MetalFx` is visual framing, not the control.
4. Reserve the animated border for active, selected, focused, hovered, or primary surfaces. Do not put it around every control.
5. Keep a static CSS border or focus outline as the fallback. WebGL decoration must never carry essential state by itself.
6. Pause non-active instances and reduced-motion experiences.
7. Test light and dark modes independently. Reflections intentionally render only in dark mode.
