Layout structure for web interfaces, from grouping and alignment to reading order, progressive disclosure, and adaptive breakpoints. Use when structuring a page or component, spacing or aligning controls, deciding what collapses at small sizes, handling RTL layout direction, or reviewing frontend code for layout. Triggers on layout, spacing, alignment, grouping, negative space, whitespace, visual hierarchy, reading order, progressive disclosure, breakpoints, responsive layout, container…
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
# Layout that communicates structure Layout communicates before a single word is read: position, spacing, and alignment carry hierarchy on their own, and generous space beats decoration. A good layout also survives stress: resize it, translate it, mirror it for RTL, and it should still hold together. Apply these principles when building or reviewing UI code, and express every change in the project's existing styling system (Tailwind, plain CSS, CSS-in-JS); never introduce a second styling approach. Hit-area sizes and focus behavior are covered by the `better-accessibility` skill; visual polish (radius, shadows, animation) by the `better-ui` skill; line length and text spacing by the `better-typography` skill. Treat the numeric values below as starting points for interfaces without an established density or spacing system.

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.
