  The ultimate frontend design and UI engineering skill. Use this whenever the user asks to build, design, style, or improve any web interface, component, page, application, dashboard, landing page, artifact, poster, or visual output. Covers typography, color systems, spatial design, motion/animation, interaction design, responsive layouts, sound design, haptic feedback, icon systems, generative art, theming, React best practices, and DESIGN.md system generation. Also use when the user asks to audit, critique, polish, simplify, animate, or normalize a frontend. Triggers on any mention of "make it look good," "fix the design," "UI," "UX," "frontend," "component," "landing page," "dashboard," "artifact," "poster," "design system," "theme," "animation," "responsive," or any request to improve visual quality. Use this skill even when the user does not explicitly ask for design help but the task involves producing a visual interface.

10
- - [ ] Body text line-height is 1.5-1.6
11
- - [ ] Large headings have negative letter-spacing (-0.01 to -0.02em)
12
- - [ ] Prose max-width is ~65ch or 640px
13
- - [ ] `tabular-nums` on any data/numbers displayed
14
- - [ ] Font loading is optimized (preload, font-display)

-
16

19
- - [ ] Large text passes 3:1 contrast ratio
20
- - [ ] UI components pass 3:1 contrast ratio
21
- - [ ] Colors defined in OKLCH (not hex or HSL)
22
- - [ ] Dark mode tested (if applicable)
23
- - [ ] Accent color is not a Tailwind default
24
-
25
- ## Spatial Design
26
- - [ ] Spacing follows 4px scale consistently
27
- - [ ] Intra-group spacing < inter-group spacing (2:1 ratio)
28
- - [ ] No uniform padding/margin everywhere
29
- - [ ] Layout is NOT just centered columns
30
- - [ ] Cards are not nested within cards
31
-
32
- ## Depth & Elevation
33
- - [ ] Important elements are visually elevated
34
- - [ ] Shadow hierarchy exists (not same shadow everywhere)
35
- - [ ] Hover states show elevation change where appropriate
36
- - [ ] Dark mode shadows are adjusted (more opacity or border-based)
37
-
38
- ## Motion & Animation
39
- - [ ] `prefers-reduced-motion` is respected
40
- - [ ] No `transition: all` (specific properties only)
41
- - [ ] Easing is NOT linear or default `ease`
42
- - [ ] Page load has some choreography (staggered reveals)
43
- - [ ] Animations use `transform` and `opacity` only (GPU-composited)
44
-
45
- ## Interaction
46
- - [ ] All interactive elements have hover, focus, active, disabled states
47
- - [ ] Focus indicators are visible (`:focus-visible`, 2px outline)
48
- - [ ] Touch targets are 44x44px minimum
49
- - [ ] Forms have proper labels (not just placeholders)
50
- - [ ] Error messages are inline and descriptive
51
- - [ ] Destructive actions have confirmation or undo
52
- - [ ] Loading states use skeletons (not just spinners)
53
-
54
- ## Accessibility
55
- - [ ] Semantic HTML used (`<button>`, `<a>`, `<nav>`, `<main>`, etc.)
56
- - [ ] All images have meaningful alt text (or `alt=""` for decorative)
57
- - [ ] Keyboard navigation works throughout (Tab, Enter, Escape)
58
- - [ ] Skip link exists for main content
59
- - [ ] Page works at 200% zoom
60
- - [ ] Color is not the only means of conveying information
61
-
62
- ## Responsive
63
- - [ ] Mobile-first CSS (`min-width` queries)
64
- - [ ] Tested on real mobile viewport (not just DevTools)
65
- - [ ] `dvh` used with `vh` fallback for full-height sections
66
- - [ ] Hover effects scoped with `@media (hover: hover)`
67
- - [ ] Safe areas handled for notched devices
68
- - [ ] Tables are scrollable or stacked on mobile
69
-
70
- ## Performance
71
- - [ ] Hero image has `fetchpriority="high"`
72
- - [ ] Below-fold images have `loading="lazy"`
73
- - [ ] No barrel file imports (direct imports only)
74
- - [ ] Critical CSS is inlined or prioritized
75
- - [ ] Fonts are subsetted and self-hosted where possible
76
- - [ ] SVGs are optimized (svgo)
77
-
78
- ## Anti-Slop Final Check
79
- - [ ] The 3-Second Test: Would someone identify this as "AI-generated"?
80
- - [ ] The Squint Test: Can you see hierarchy and groupings when blurred?
81
- - [ ] No 3+ AI fingerprints present simultaneously
82
- - [ ] At least ONE memorable design choice exists
83
- - [ ] Design varies between projects (not converging on same look)
