list

When the user wants to design, optimize, or audit list layouts for content display. Also use when the user mentions "list layout," "list design," "vertical list," "stacked list," "blog list," "article list," "documentation list," "search results layout," or "infinite scroll list." For blog index page, use blog-page-generator.

Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
Self-contained
Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.
Open source
Published by kostja94 on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the List AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/kostja94/marketing-skills.git /tmp/marketing-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/marketing-skills/skills/components/layout/list .claude/skills/list

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable List in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads List on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so List is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Components: List Layout

Guides list layout design for linear, stacked content display. Lists are compact, text-heavy; users scan by title or metadata. Used for blog indexes, documentation, search results, and dense content.

When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.

When to Use List

Use list when	Use grid when
Text-heavy; scan by title	Visual content; equal emphasis
Many items; compact display	Fewer items; browsing
Blog index, docs, search results	Products, templates, gallery
F-pattern reading (top-left, left column)	Discovery, exploration

See grid for grid layout; card for card structure.

List Structure

Element	Purpose
Items	Single column; stacked vertically
Per item	Title, optional metadata (date, author), excerpt, link
Spacing	Consistent gaps; dividers or alternating background
Density	Compact (docs) vs relaxed (blog)

List Variants

Variant	Use
Simple list	Title + link; minimal (nav, TOC)
Rich list	Title, excerpt, date, author
Table-like	Columns for metadata (date, status)
With thumbnail	Small image + text

Best Practices

Principle	Practice
Scannable	Clear titles; consistent hierarchy
Compact	Less vertical space than grid
Link area	Full row or title clickable
Metadata	Date, author, category; secondary styling

F-Pattern

Users read top-left first, then scan left column. Place primary content (titles) left-aligned; metadata secondary.

Infinite Scroll

If using infinite scroll for list (e.g., blog index, search results): crawlers cannot access content loaded on scroll. Provide paginated component pages or use traditional pagination for SEO-critical content. See site-crawlability for search-friendly infinite scroll implementation.

Responsive

Mobile: Single column; full-width items
Touch targets: ≥44×44px for touchable rows
Truncation: Long titles; ellipsis or wrap by design

Frequently asked questions

What does the List AI skill do?

Why use List on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. List is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install List in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/kostja94/marketing-skills/tree/main/skills/components/layout/list. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use List?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with List?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use List with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the List AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by kostja94 under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
