How it works

oxfords

When your agent uses it

Use when building, changing, redesigning or reviewing any interface a person operates - dashboard, admin panel, table, form, settings, modal, onboarding, mobile app screen, landing page - or choosing its colours, palette or dark theme. Also use when a UI looks AI-generated, cluttered, generic, "vibe coded", over-decorated, unfinished or hard to scan, or when asked to remove AI slop, make a UI clean, plain, polished or professional, fix the UX, or check a build before shipping.

removes the decoration that marks a screen as machine-made.

It does not make a product look striking or give it a brand. It decides what goes on the
screen, where, how visible, how it responds, and what must not be there.

**The test behind every rule:** nobody reads a screen. They arrive with one question and hunt
for the answer. A choice either makes that hunt faster or it is decoration.

**Plain is not generic, and it is not colourless.** Stripping slop and stopping leaves a
white page with grey text and one blue button. That is a default too. Plain is about
