+# Ignite UI for Angular — UI Components
+
+## MANDATORY AGENT PROTOCOL — YOU MUST FOLLOW THIS BEFORE PRODUCING ANY OUTPUT
+
+**This file is a routing hub only. It contains NO code examples and NO API details.**
+
+> **DO NOT write any component selectors, import paths, input names, output names, or directive names from memory.**
+> Component APIs change between versions. Anything generated without reading the reference files will be incorrect.
+
+You are **required** to complete ALL of the following steps before producing any component-related code or answer:
+
+**STEP 1 — Identify every component or feature involved.**
+Map the user's request to one or more rows in the Task → Reference File table below. A single request often spans multiple categories (e.g., a form inside a Dialog requires reading both `form-controls.md` AND `feedback.md`).
+
+**STEP 2 — Read every identified reference file in full.**
+Call `read_file` (or equivalent) on each reference file identified in Step 1. You must do this even if you believe you already know the answer. Do not skip, skim, or partially read a reference file.
+
+**STEP 3 — Check app setup.**
+If the component is new to the project (or you're scaffolding a new feature), also read [`references/setup.md`](./references/setup.md) to verify the correct providers and entry-point import patterns. Missing `provideAnimations()` is the most common source of runtime failures.
+
+**STEP 4 — Only then produce output.**
+Base your code and explanation exclusively on what you read. If the reference files do not cover something, say so explicitly rather than guessing.
+
+### Task → Reference File
+
+| Task | Reference file to read |
+|---|---|
+| App setup, `app.config.ts` providers, `provideAnimations()`, entry-point imports, convenience directive arrays | [`references/setup.md`](./references/setup.md) |
+| Input Group, Combo, Simple Combo, Select, Date Picker, Date Range Picker, Time Picker, Calendar, Checkbox, Radio, Switch, Slider, reactive/template-driven forms | [`references/form-controls.md`](./references/form-controls.md) |
+| Tabs, Bottom Navigation, Stepper, Accordion, Expansion Panel, Splitter, Navigation Drawer | [`references/layout.md`](./references/layout.md) |
+| List, Tree, Card, Chips, Avatar, Badge, Icon, Carousel, Paginator, Progress Indicators, Chat | [`references/data-display.md`](./references/data-display.md) |
+| Dialog, Snackbar, Toast, Banner | [`references/feedback.md`](./references/feedback.md) |
+| Button, Icon Button, Ripple, Tooltip, Drag and Drop | [`references/directives.md`](./references/directives.md) |
+| Layout Manager (`igxLayout`, `igxFlex` directives), Dock Manager (`igc-dockmanager` web component) | [`references/layout-manager.md`](./references/layout-manager.md) |
+| Charts (Area, Bar, Column, Stock/Financial, Pie), chart configuration, chart features (animation, tooltips, markers, highlighting, zooming), data binding | [`references/charts.md`](./references/charts.md) |
+
+> **When in doubt, read more rather than fewer reference files.** The cost of an unnecessary file read is negligible; the cost of hallucinated API usage is a broken application.

+## Prerequisites
+
+- Angular 20+ project
+- `@angular/cli` installed
+- `igniteui-angular` or `@infragistics/igniteui-angular` added to the project via `ng add igniteui-angular` (or the `@infragistics` variant) or `npm install` — see [Package Variants](#package-variants) below.
+- A theme applied to the application (see [`igniteui-angular-theming`](../igniteui-angular-theming/SKILL.md)).
+- `provideAnimations()` in `app.config.ts` — **required before using any overlay or animated component**
+
+
+## Package Variants
+
+| Package | Install | Who uses it |
+|---|---|---|
+| `igniteui-angular` | `npm install igniteui-angular` | Open-source / community |
+| `@infragistics/igniteui-angular` | Requires private `@infragistics` registry | Licensed / enterprise users |
+
+Both packages share **identical entry-point paths**. Check `package.json` and use that package name as the prefix for every import. Never import from the root barrel of either package.
+Both packages can be added to the project using `@angular/cli` with the following commands: `ng add igniteui-angular` or `ng add @infragistics/igniteui-angular`.
