Component design — baseCOMPs, extensions, custom parameters, parent shortcuts, modularity. Use when creating COMPs or structuring projects.
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 Architecture How to structure COMPs for modularity, reusability, and clean hierarchy. ## COMP Types - `baseCOMP` — general container, extensions, custom pars. Most common for modules. Always set `display=true` after creating - `containerCOMP` — has a UI panel, use for anything with a visual interface - `geometryCOMP` — renders geometry, contains SOPs/POPs + MATs, has instancing support ## Parent Shortcuts Every COMP that others reference should have a `parentshortcut`. Set on the COMP itself. - CamelCase, capital first: `Project`, `Render`, `Camera`, `MyModule` - Depth-independent — `parent.Project` works from any nesting level - Refactor-safe — reparenting doesn't break references - Always prefer over `../../` or `parent(2)` ## In/Out Operators COMPs use in/out ops to define their boundaries: - `inTOP`/`outTOP`, `inCHOP`/`outCHOP`, `inSOP`/`outSOP`, `inDAT`/`outDAT` - `in*` receives data from external wires into the COMP - `out*` sends data out of the COMP - **Create the in* op before wiring** — a fresh baseCOMP has no input connectors until an in* op exists inside …

How to install
mdr add touchdesigner/tdmcpskills/td-comp-architecture@sha256:29b89f66394f8af3The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260612.16e3aed, 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.
