Shade imports

Always import Shade from its layer-specific subpath. Never from the root barrel @tryghost/shade.

Correct

import {Stack, Inline, Box, Grid, Container, Text} from '@tryghost/shade/primitives';
import {Button, Input, Dialog} from '@tryghost/shade/components';
import {PageHeader, KpiCard, Filters} from '@tryghost/shade/patterns';
import {ListPage} from '@tryghost/shade/page-templates';
import {PostShareModal} from '@tryghost/shade/posts-stats';
import {cn, formatNumber} from '@tryghost/shade/utils';
import {ShadeApp} from '@tryghost/shade/app';

Note: ListPage is in @tryghost/shade/page-templates, not /patterns. Page templates are top-level page wrappers; patterns are the building blocks they compose.

Incorrect

// BAD — root barrel
import {Button, Stack} from '@tryghost/shade';

// BAD — deep path into source
import {Button} from '@tryghost/shade/src/components/ui/button';

Inside Shade itself

When editing files under apps/shade/src/**, use the @/ alias for cross-file imports:

import {cn} from '@/lib/utils';
import {inputSurface} from '@/components/ui/input-surface';

Why

Subpath imports make the layer (primitive/component/pattern) visible at the call site, which is the first piece of information a reader needs. The root barrel hides that and encourages cross-layer drift.
