Modern-ratatui knowledge pack for Rust TUI code on ratatui and crossterm.
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
# Ratatui Patterns Modern-ratatui knowledge pack. Current stable: **ratatui 0.30.2** (2026-06). Model training data predates 0.29. The biggest failure mode is reimplementing by hand what the library now provides; the second is asserting API shapes from memory. Both have the same fix: **work from the bundled references, not from memory.** ## Hard Rules 1. Before writing any TUI render/layout/lifecycle code, read `references/modernization-checklist.md`. If the thing being built appears in it, use the built-in. 2. Before claiming an API exists or writing a signature, verify it in `references/api-reference.md` (generated from ratatui source, grep-friendly). If it is not there and not in `references/limitations.md`, pull live docs (below) before hand-rolling. 3. Use a built-in unless it cannot meet a measured, approved rendering invariant; record that gap beside the custom renderer. Anything else custom is a defect. 4. Render logic ships with `TestBackend` tests per `references/testing.md`. 5. Depend only on the `ratatui` umbrella crate, never on `ratatui-core`/`-widgets` directly. If `default-features = false`, re-add `layout-cache`. …

How to install
mdr add uwuclxdy/agenticat/ratatui-patterns@sha256:efe522bba22536ffThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.7, 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.
