Individual skill

frontend-design

Produce frontend UI that actually looks designed — a working spacing/type system, deliberate color use, real states, and restraint — instead of the generic AI-generated interface. Use when asked to build or restyle a UI, landing page, dashboard, or component, when output 'works but looks like a prototype', or to establish the visual system for a new app. Produces working HTML/CSS (or framework components) built on an explicit token system, with hover/focus/empty/loading states included. For critiquing an existing design use design-critique; for auditing a design system use design-system-audit.

# Frontend Design Skill

AI-generated UI has a recognisable smell: default blues, five different paddings, everything the same visual weight, no states. This skill produces interfaces that look *decided* — by making the decisions explicit as a token system, then spending contrast deliberately instead of everywhere.

> **Not quite this?** Use `frontend-design-pointer` when you want Anthropic's upstream frontend-design skill instead of this library's.

## What This Skill Produces

- **Working UI code** (single-file HTML/CSS or framework components) built on an explicit token block
- The **token system**: type scale, spacing scale, color roles, radius/shadow levels — small and consistent
- The **states**: hover, focus-visible, active, disabled, empty, loading, error — designed, not defaulted
