Choose a layout paradigm (feed, board, table, canvas, master-detail, dashboard) and reuse it across screens. Includes a landing page narrative framework. Use when structuring a screen, page template or landing page.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Layout Paradigms and Consistency A layout is not a neutral container you pour content into. The layout paradigm you choose is part of the argument about how the content should be read, compared, and acted on. Two products showing the same data can communicate completely different things depending on whether that data is a feed, a table, or a board. This skill operates at the **macro scale** of consistency. It sits above [[component-family-consistency]] (the *meso* scale — buttons and inputs sharing one DNA) and above token-level consistency like [[button-states]], [[status-colors-and-errors]], and [[modular-scale-typography]] (the *micro* scale). Consistency is not one rule — it is the same discipline applied at three altitudes. ## Consistency operates at three scales | Scale | What stays consistent | Where it lives | |---|---|---| | **Estate** | Brand chassis and shared shell across *separate applications* | *this skill, Part 3* + [[app-shell]] | | **Macro** | Layout paradigm and page skeleton across screens | *this skill* | | **Meso** | Component family — shared radius, height, colour logic | [[component-family-consistency]], [[brand-visual-language]] | …

How to install
mdr add dembrandt/dembrandt-skills/layout-paradigms-and-consistency@sha256:bec8acc9de11b1b1The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261001.b05848a, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
