Make the recipe part of the project
Bring cookbook guidance into Local as visible working files. Inspect what a recipe says, adapt it for the project and choose deliberately when it should guide an agent’s work.
# A recipe worth keeping
Use the approved brand guide.
Reuse the section that fits.
Keep client content editable.
Check the page at every size.
Save it for the next build.Know what you are importing
A cookbook is a collection of guidance, separate from your page content and templates. Keep the chosen release and your working copy understandable to the next person who opens the project.
Recipes
Read the reusable guidance before applying it.
Working files
Inspect and customize the local copy.
Release record
Keep track of the version brought into the project.
Import the package you intended
Choose an exact package that fits the task and review it before relying on its guidance. Local disk imports work without a Platform connection.
Find
Locate a package on disk or an accessible connected release.
Inspect
Confirm its identity, version and requirements.
Import
Use the supported Local import flow.
Read
Review the recipe files now present in the project.
Select guidance for the work ahead
Importing a method does not automatically make it the active choice. Select the workflow and cookbook inputs for the intended action, then resolve that selection before the task begins. Review reported local edits or missing requirements so the chosen guidance matches the project.

Practical cookbook questions
Can I import from a local ZIP?
Yes. Disk imports do not require a Platform account.
Does an import select the workflow?
No. Import and selection are separate actions.
What happens to our existing pages after an update?
Cookbook updates change guidance, not existing page, template or Document content.
Start with a package you can explain
Review the method, record the version and keep the working files close to your project. Follow the reference for the exact import, selection and update commands.
