Compact inline-level alert embedded within content flow — an icon and short message that appears beside labels, form fields, or within paragraphs without disrupting layout. Distinct from alert_banner (full-width strip) and toast_notification (transient overlay).

| Field | Type | |
|---|---|---|
| variant | string. Severity — "info", "success", "warning" or "error". "critical" is accepted as a synonym for "error" (see alert_banner). NOT `type`, which is the block discriminator — a severity put there is ignored or replaces the atom name. Renderers read `variant`. | required |
| message | string. The alert text. | required |
| detail | string. A secondary line of smaller detail text. | optional |
| icon | string. Override the default icon for the severity type. | optional |
