Cross-run component backflow. Derive the reusable components that have recurred across iterated pages and render a propose-only promotion proposal for user adjudication. Use when iterated pages may have produced components worth promoting into DESIGN.md, when the same component keeps being reused across runs/scenes, or when the user asks what the pages have taught the design system. Report-only — never writes DESIGN.md or any authority.

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

# component-distill

Distill the recurring components out of iterated pages and propose promoting them into the project `DESIGN.md`. This is the **backflow** leg of the pipeline: `design-baseline` reads the baseline into pages once; this skill reads the pages back toward the baseline. It is **propose-only and user-gated** — it never writes `DESIGN.md` or any authority; promotion is a user decision (governance log) executed only by `design_baseline.py promote` (ADR-0012).

This is a **cross-run** review, not a step of a single Design I/O run. It reads prior runs' `decision-report.md` files and emits a proposal artifact for user adjudication.

## Authority boundary

| This skill owns | Does not own |
| --- | --- |
| Deriving recurring-component candidates across runs | Durable write to `DESIGN.md` (`design_baseline.py promote`, T-070) |
| Rendering the propose-only promotion proposal | The user promotion decision (governance log, user-only) |
| Reporting distance-to-threshold for below-threshold signals | Component/template selection for a run (`ui-picker`) |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add bandersnatch0x/design-playbook/component-distill@sha256:04ecb3836883f2b5

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260924.0bfb615, 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.
