Design or critique data tables and lists — scannable structure, alignment rules (left for text, right for numbers), sorting/filtering, row interactions, and the right list type for the content. Trigger when the user asks to design or review a data table, data grid, admin table, list view, email/feed list, or asks how to present tabular or structured data.

# Tables & Lists Skill

## How this skill behaves (read first)

This is a **generative** skill. The default failure modes: **decoration over data** (heavy borders, zebra everything, centered text, mixed formats), **missing manipulation** (no sorting, no customization — fatal at real data volumes), and **density extremes** (cramped 32px rows or wasteful spacing). A table's only job is letting users *scan, compare, and act on* data — every visual choice either serves that or fights it. This skill gates:

1. **Establish the data shape and tasks** — 2-D comparison (table) vs. 1-D scanning (list), volume, and what users do with rows.
2. **Apply the always-true core** — alignment rules, hierarchy, formats, interaction states.
3. **Surface the context-dependent decisions** (density, pagination type, customization, list variants) with trade-offs.

Then it **hands off to `ux-heuristics-audit`, `ux-accessibility-audit`, `ux-aesthetics-audit`, and `ux-microcopy-audit`** for validation.
