# Grid Card Assemble
N capability cards (thin-line icon that draws on, mono label, optional muted body) stagger-assemble into a grid or vertical list with a fade plus short slide into slot, then hold perfectly still.
**Grid Card Assemble**
```html grid-card-assemble.html theme={null}
Grid Card Assemble
```
Copy npx hyperframes add grid-card-assemble to the clipboard
That writes one file: `compositions/components/grid-card-assemble.html`.
## Paste it into your composition
Open `compositions/components/grid-card-assemble.html` and copy what is inside into your own composition.
A component has no size or duration of its own. It takes both from the composition
you paste it into.
## Variables
Every one of these has a default, so the piece works untouched. Set the ones you
want to change on the element:
| Variable | Default | Accepts | What it does |
| - | - | - | - |
| `items` | `Capture,Compose,Render,Publish` | string | Comma-separated cards (3 to 12). "Label: body" adds a one-line muted body under the label. |
| `layout` | `grid` | `grid`, `list` | Grid wraps by columns; list stacks vertically. |
| `columns` | `0` | 0 to 4, step 1 | Grid column count (grid layout only). 0 picks automatically: one row up to 3 items, then ceil(sqrt(N)). |
| `cues` | \`\` | string | Comma-separated per-item entrance times in seconds. Blank entries use the default cascade. |
| `accent` | `green` | `green`, `blue`, `violet` | Accent token family used by the card icons. |
| `exit` | `none` | `none`, `fade`, `up` | How the assembled layout leaves the frame. Default none: the hold ends the film. |
Set them with `data-variable-values` on the element that mounts it. These are the
defaults, so this behaves exactly like the preview above until you change one:
```html wrap theme={null}
```
