A brief for your coding agent: what the block is, the install command, how to render it, its props and the rules. Copy it, or open a prompt about this block in an assistant.
# Brok UI block: Description List Cards (`description-list-sections`)
A description list split into grouped section cards (personal, contact, billing, preferences), each a key/value list with an edit action.
Brok UI is a Laravel Blade registry. `ui:add` copies this block into the app as plain Blade the app owns; it composes installed `<brok:*>` primitives and semantic design tokens.
## Install
```bash
php artisan ui:add blocks/description-list-sections
```
## Render it
```blade
<x-blocks.description-list-sections />
```
## Props
- `heading` (string, default `Account overview`)
- `subheading` (string, default `Manage your personal details, contact information, billing, and preferences.`)
- `sections` (mixed|null, default `null`)
## Use when
- Splitting account details into grouped section cards (personal, contact, billing, preferences) each with its own edit action.
- Fitting a settings-overview page that benefits from clearly separated topic groups rather than one long list.
## Avoid when
- Use description-list-detail or description-list-inline for a single, ungrouped list of key/value rows instead.
## Rules
- Render the installed block with `<x-blocks.description-list-sections />` and pass data through its props; edit the copied file only for structural changes.
- Keep the semantic design tokens (`bg-background`, `text-muted-foreground`); never swap in raw colour utilities.
- Keep the `data-slot` attributes and the logical (start/end) spacing so the markup still mirrors under `dir="rtl"`.

Working in Claude Code, Cursor or Codex? Give the agent the whole registry through the MCP server or the Brok UI skill.
Guidance
Use when
- Splitting account details into grouped section cards (personal, contact, billing, preferences) each with its own edit action.
- Fitting a settings-overview page that benefits from clearly separated topic groups rather than one long list.
Avoid when
- Use description-list-detail or description-list-inline for a single, ungrouped list of key/value rows instead.
Anti-patterns
- Do not replace semantic props with conflicting utility classes.
- Do not remove labels, focus styles, or state attributes.
Usage
Render the block as a component, passing data where useful:
<x-blocks.description-list-sections />
Built from primitives
This block composes installed <brok:*> primitives and semantic design
tokens only — it does not reimplement any primitive. Re-theme it (light, dark, admin, customer) by
editing CSS variables; flip the preview to RTL to confirm it mirrors.
