Composition rules

Preserve minimum whitespace around icon-and-label groups. Reserve room outside bookmark tile corners for move/edit/delete affordances; their negative offsets are part of the source anatomy. Component screenshots include the complete tile plus controls, not only the square icon.

Use viewport dimensions to distinguish expanded/full-content screenshots from normal mobile layouts. Never stretch a crop to make a specimen appear taller or to invent more pixels.
