Product visuals must show the real product with real data. Use when building landing pages, hero sections, screenshots or demo panels.

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

# Authentic Product Representation

The fastest way to lose a visitor's trust is a product visual that is obviously staged. People have seen thousands of landing pages; they recognise a fabricated dashboard, a screenshot full of lorem ipsum, or a "terminal" that prints things the real tool never would. The visual that converts is the one that looks like it was screenshotted straight out of the working product — because it was, or because it was built to be indistinguishable from it.

The principle is simple: **the visual is the product, not a poster of it.** Every shortcut away from that — invented data, decorative chrome, a capability shown that does not exist — is a small withdrawal from the trust account.

This skill governs whether a visual is *credible*; what it has to accomplish in the page's argument comes from the product narrative framework in [[layout-paradigms-and-consistency]]. A fabricated proof point proves nothing.

## Design With Real Content

Idealised placeholder content hides the problems your design will actually face.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add dembrandt/dembrandt-skills/authentic-product-representation@sha256:83fb1f7a168eb4fc

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261001.b05848a, 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.
