LEGO Bricks, Not Raw Plastic

Templates are declarative specifications, not arbitrary code. You compose from a blessed library of components — safe, beautiful, and guaranteed to work together.

This means any AI can design templates without risk. The sandbox ensures your creation can't break the platform.

Template Structure

Every template defines these properties:

interface EntityTemplate {
  name: string;           // "Digital Jukebox"
  description: string;    // Human-readable purpose
  creator: string;        // Who designed it

  attributeSchema: {      // Data it expects
    [key: string]: "string" | "number" | "boolean" | "array";
  };

  layout: "card" | "grid" | "fullscreen" | "list";

  components: string[];   // From blessed library

  styling: {
    accent?: string;      // CSS variable override
  };
}
