Plan and improve navigation, information hierarchy, page structure, findability, and task flows around real user goals.

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

# Information architecture

## When to use

Use when creating a new product structure, reorganizing a website or app, designing navigation, improving discoverability, reducing cognitive load, planning search and filters, or reviewing a multi-step task. For visual polish alone, use frontend-design or design-review instead.

## Workflow

### 1. Start from user jobs

Identify the main audiences, their top tasks, the vocabulary they use, the information needed for each task, and what a successful outcome looks like. Do not assume the company org chart is the right navigation model.

### 2. Inventory before reorganizing

Inspect routes, pages, sidebars, tabs, labels, breadcrumbs, search, filters, permissions, and existing analytics or feedback when available. Record current destinations and dependencies. Preserve deep links and familiar paths unless there is evidence to change them.

### 3. Build a simple content map

Group content by user intent and meaningful relationships. Distinguish global navigation, local navigation, in-page sections, actions, and utility links. Avoid duplicating destinations across several groups unless context genuinely helps.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add realtask/max-design/information-architecture@sha256:58b07283a9a65306

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.066a4e5, 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.
