# Blueprint Item Installation

The blueprint system requires the inventory item:

```text
blueprint
```

## Nord Inventory

Use Nord Crafting's **automatic installation workflow**. The auto-installer is intended only for `nord_inventory`.

After first boot, verify `blueprint` is present in the Nord Inventory item registry before testing drafting.

## Other inventories

Manual files are included:

```text
install/itens/item.lua
install/itens/item_qs.lua
install/itens/blueprint.png
```

If the item is missing, the blueprint startup check reports that `blueprint` was not found in the active inventory and points to the manual install files.

> For metadata-based uses/quality to work correctly, use a unique/non-stacking blueprint definition where your inventory requires that behavior.
