Create and publish Templates

Creator workflow

Section titled “Creator workflow”

Template creation has five practical stages:

  1. create the Template details;
  2. add and organize files;
  3. review the complete draft;
  4. run the automated publication review and publish;
  5. maintain the listing, content, versions, and visibility.

New Templates begin as private drafts. Public visibility starts only after a successful review and an explicit publish action.

Before creating a Template

Section titled “Before creating a Template”

A Library creator account requires a unique username. The username appears on public Template and creator pages. It must contain 5 to 30 characters and cannot be changed after it is set. The shared Memside account controls the display name and profile picture.

Prepare content that is safe to publish. Remove private information, account credentials, access tokens, confidential material, and content without clear permission for redistribution.

Usage and metrics

Simple example structure

Section titled “Simple example structure”

A small weekly-planning Template could contain:

README.md
instructions.md
examples/
  simple-week.md

The README explains the purpose, instructions.md defines the process, and the example demonstrates the expected format. Additional folders are useful only when they make the setup easier to understand.

Connected creator workflows

Section titled “Connected creator workflows”

Owned Templates can also be managed through supported MCP tools or the Library REST API. Connected workflows follow the same ownership, review, and publication requirements as the website.
