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

# Nori TUI design imperatives

These rules are the visual contract for shared Nori terminal components. They
combine the strongest conventions in Nori CLI, Codex-derived views, and
Handroll. New components must follow them; existing components should converge
as they move into this crate.

## Composition

1. Never box ordinary Nori content. Reserve perimeter frames for exceptional
   containment: an overlay modal or popover, a complex inline diff note, or the
   prompt-card motif in chat. Use spacing, background surfaces, and alignment
   for ordinary grouping.
2. Establish hierarchy with spacing, background layers, and alignment.
3. Make information-dense pickers full screen. Center only bounded dialogs and
   short action menus.
4. Place page content inside a consistent two-cell horizontal inset.
5. Use bold, left-aligned, sentence-case titles in the terminal foreground.
   Titles establish hierarchy and never consume a functional accent color.
6. Keep context-sensitive key hints left-aligned and, when the full keymap
   needs more room, split them into two deliberate rows instead of centering
   or distributing them across the viewport.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add tilework-tech/nori-cli/nori-rs/tui-components/DESIGN.md@sha256:7b91a3219c9b5486

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260903.e61dcdf, 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.
