## Best for

A contributor profile with a desaturated cover banner, verified name, View Profile button and a scrolling project rail

## Agent notes

- Replace `PROFILE`, `COVER_IMAGE` and `COLLECTIONS` in card.tsx; every photo and thumbnail is a remote Unsplash URL
- The cover div tones `COVER_IMAGE` down with grayscale and saturate classes; drop them to show a brand image in full color
- View Profile and Get in Touch are `Button` elements with no click handler, and each `COLLECTIONS` tile is an article with no link

## When not to use

- A grid of client projects, each with a share button and a due date countdown: use [Project Deadline Cards](https://web.dev.reui.io/blocks/application/card/card-21.md) (`get_block("card-21")`)
- A customer with order totals, team avatars and a Connected state button: use [Customer Profile](https://web.dev.reui.io/blocks/application/card/card-42.md) (`get_block("card-42")`)

## Third-party libraries

- Base UI v1: [API reference](https://base-ui.com/react/components), [docs](https://base-ui.com/react/overview/quick-start), [llms.txt](https://base-ui.com/llms.txt)

## About Card blocks

### When to use

- Rows and grids of KPI tiles, each a value and a label with an optional trend badge or icon
- Grids of small linked cards for features, setup steps, guides, integrations or partner logos
- One record or offer per card: a profile, applicant, delivery, meeting, job, asset price or promo

### When not to use

- A metric panel with a progress bar, a segmented gauge or supporting rows under the total: use the [Stats blocks](https://web.dev.reui.io/blocks/application/stats.md)
- A KPI whose trend over time is plotted, with a period switcher or tooltips: use the [Area Chart blocks](https://web.dev.reui.io/blocks/chart/area-chart.md)
- A whole overview page: a header, a row of KPI tiles, then a work list or trend panel: use the [Dashboard blocks](https://web.dev.reui.io/blocks/application/dashboard.md)

### Agent notes

- Every block centers itself in a padded `min-h-svh` wrapper in page.tsx or its root component; remove it when the card goes inside your own page
