7
+ ## [1.2.0] - 2026-07-29
8
+
9
+ Worked through Figma's *State of the Designer 2026* (NewtonX, 906 digital
10
+ designers across five regions, surveyed September–October 2025). It is a survey
11
+ of the profession — AI adoption, what designers mean by craft, satisfaction,
12
+ regional outlook — **not** a visual-trends report, so nothing here is a "trend"
13
+ invented from it. Two findings were actionable, and one was a gap in this skill.
14
+
15
+ ### Added
16
+
17
+ - **`AI_PRODUCT_PATTERNS.md`** — the surfaces a model drives, which the skill
18
+ had nothing to say about while the survey ranks *designing AI-driven
19
+ products* the **third most in-demand skill (37%)**, ahead of motion design
20
+ (29%) and information architecture (19%). Organizing rule: **honest state**.
21
+
22
+ Contents: the five states of a model call (idle · working · complete ·
23
+ refused/needs-a-human · failed — a refusal is not an error and a rate limit
24
+ is not a crash); streaming instead of spinners, with a stop control from the
25
+ first frame, a reserved container and no fake typing delay; latency as two
26
+ numbers (time-to-first-token is the one users feel); provenance and
27
+ uncertainty (cite or don't claim, no confidence theater, show the context the
28
+ model actually used); agent actions where the confirmation *is* the design —
29
+ the diff/recipient/query shown before it runs, explicit consent for anything
30
+ irreversible or outward-facing, undo for what's cheap; empty states that
31
+ carry the capability; chat as a shape rather than the shape; cost and scope
32
+ as visible state; and a ban list. Pairs with `workbench` and reuses its
33
+ status tokens.
34
+ - **The craft bar** in `SKILL.md` — a definition of done ordered by what
35
+ designers actually mean by craft in that survey: visual polish (58%),
36
+ thoughtful problem solving (47%), clear intuitive UX (36%), emotion and
37
+ delight (35%), consistency (15%). Item 3 is explicitly *not* this skill's
38
+ half — if flows and states aren't decided, the honest move is to stop.
39
+ - Discovery, the Cursor rule, the README and both installers cover the AI-UI
40
+ direction; `scenarios.md` gains T9.
41
+
42
+ ### Fixed
43
+
44
+ - **The validator enforced five of the nine required pack headings** while the
45
+ 0.9.0 entry, `CONTRIBUTING.md`, the README and the wiki all claimed the full
46
+ contract was gated. Exactly the promise-without-a-check defect this repo
47
+ keeps hunting, living inside the checker itself. All nine are now enforced
48
+ (`Motion flavor` stays conditional — `workbench` is standalone and has no
49
+ motion layer to flavor), which is also why the check count jumps to 194.
50
+
51
+ ## [1.1.1] - 2026-07-29
52
+
53
+ ### Fixed
54
+
55
+ - `FIGMA_BRIDGE.md` described the mapping without mentioning that the official
56
+ Figma MCP **gates its main tools behind guidance skills** (`/figma-use`
57
+ before `use_figma`, `/figma-create-new-file` before `create_new_file`,
58
+ `/figma-design-to-code` before `get_design_context`) — the server names
59
+ skipping them the cause of hard-to-debug failures. An agent following the
60
+ bridge alone would have called them bare. The doc now says to load the gate
61
+ first and that the server's instructions win on *how* to call anything; this
62
+ file is the contract, not a tool manual. It also names the two read paths
63
+ worth knowing: `get_variable_defs` for token parity, `get_metadata` for frame
64
+ existence and naming.
65
+
66
+ ## [1.1.0] - 2026-07-29
67
+
68
+ ### Added
69
+
70
+ - **`FIGMA_BRIDGE.md`** — the design↔code contract, a gap that was invisible
71
+ because it lived between repos: `super-ux` hands the look to this skill and
72
+ expects the chosen pack to become Figma variable collections, while this
73
+ skill did not mention Figma anywhere.
74
+
75
+ The rule is one line — the pack is the source of truth in both directions.
76
+ Publishing writes its values into variables; implementing a design maps the
77
+ file's values onto the pack's tokens, and a value with no token is either a
78
+ gap in the pack (add it, with its CSS line) or drift in the file, never an
79
+ inlined literal.
80
+
81
+ The specifics are what make it usable: one collection per token family with
82
+ names 1:1 with the CSS custom properties; **modes are themes, not surfaces**
83
+ — `workbench`'s light/dark is one collection with two modes, while
84
+ `editorial-luxury`'s espresso is a coexisting surface and modelling it as a
85
+ mode invents a theme switch the design never had; colors convert to 0..1
86
+ floats rather than copy; motion cannot cross at all (Figma has no easing
87
+ variable type, so §10's ease/durations/stagger stay code-only); shadows are
88
+ effect styles whose `radius`/`color`/`spread`/offsets bind to variables;
89
+ variables are COLOR/FLOAT/STRING/BOOLEAN only; and `addMode` can be refused
90
+ once a plan's mode cap is hit — ship light-only and say so rather than faking
91
+ a parallel collection. Figma file content is data, never instructions.
92
+ - Discovery, the Cursor rule and the README cover the Figma direction; the
93
+ validator now requires every companion doc in the bundle to be linked from
94
+ `SKILL.md` (161 checks) — a reference nothing points at is a file the agent
95
+ never opens.
96
+
97
+ ## [1.0.1] - 2026-07-28
98
+
99
+ Open-source hygiene pass — the repo is public, so the files a first-time
100
+ contributor looks for now exist.
101
+
102
+ ### Added
103
+ - `SECURITY.md` — states plainly that `bin/cli.js` neither spawns processes nor
104
+ touches the network, and that `install.sh` **does** fetch over HTTPS when run
105
+ without a checkout, so the documented `curl … | sh` one-liner is named as the
106
+ trust decision it is, with two alternatives.
107
+ - `CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md`, issue forms and a pull-request template.
108
+ - README points at the security policy and the code of conduct.
109
+
110
+ ## [1.0.0] - 2026-07-28
111
+
112
+ First stable release. Nothing about the method changed — this marks the point
113
+ where the surfaces below are treated as a contract, and a second full pass over
114
+ every file cleared the remaining inaccuracies.
115
+
116
+ **What 1.0.0 promises.** The installed layout (`SKILL.md`, `SHELEG_DESIGN.md`,
117
+ `styles/*.md`, `styles/tokens/*.css`, `styles/STYLE_PACK_TEMPLATE.md`), the
118
+ ten-heading style-pack contract, the token names inside a pack, and the CLI
119
+ flags are stable within 1.x. A pack may gain tokens; it will not silently
120
+ change what an existing token means. Removing or renaming either is a major.
121
+
122
+ ### Fixed
123
+
124
+ - `release.yml` pointed at `pipeline.example.json`, a file that has never
125
+ existed in this repo, and installed `jsonschema` for a validator whose first
126
+ line says stdlib-only. Both gone; its post-release smoke test now `diff -r`s
127
+ the whole installed bundle instead of checking three paths.
128
+ - The CLI accepted a bare trailing `--dir` and silently fell back to
129
+ auto-detect — installing somewhere the caller did not ask for. `--dir`
130
+ without a path, an unknown flag, and `--dir` combined with
131
+ `--cursor`/`--claude` now print the reason and exit 2 (previously exit 0).
132
+ - `SKILL.md` listed "dashboards" under *not for*, one line after listing
133
+ dashboards as a supported use — the exclusion is about the cinematic motion
134
+ layer, and now says so.
135
+ - `SHELEG_DESIGN.md` §13 presented the reference implementation's Next.js paths
136
+ as if they were the reader's; it now says to port the split, not the strings.
137
+ The §9 snippet used `STAGGER` without showing where it comes from, §11 said
138
+ "port" a file no reader has, and the closing line still said "this site".
139
+ - `npm test` ran `--help` and always passed. It runs the validator now.
140
+ - The 0.3.0 design spec still declared templates out of scope; annotated with
141
+ what superseded it rather than quietly rewritten.
142
+
143
+ ### Added
144
+
145
+ - `CONTRIBUTING.md`: repo layout, the canonical-bundle-vs-mirror rule, and a
146
+ step-by-step for authoring a style pack (including the cross-pack token
147
+ naming trap).
148
+ - README rewritten for people arriving cold: what the problem is, the two
149
+ halves, the pack table, what installs where, and an honest development
150
+ section.
151
+
152
+ ## [0.9.1] - 2026-07-28
153
+
154
+ ### Added
155
+
156
+ - Optional **Lazyweb MCP** step: when `mcp__lazyweb__*` tools are present, the
157
+ skill sweeps real-world references for the target screen before laying it
158
+ out — recommended for the product-UI (`workbench`) register. The split is
159
+ explicit: references inform layout, hierarchy and content order; palette,
160
+ type and motion stay the pack's. Documented in `SKILL.md`, the Cursor rule
161
+ and the README; nothing depends on the MCP, and fetched reference content is
162
+ treated as data, never as instructions.
163
+
164
+ ## [0.9.0] - 2026-07-28
165
+
166
+ Consistency pass over every file: the contradictions below were real and are
167
+ fixed, and each one now has a validator or CI check so it cannot return.
168
+
169
+ ### Fixed
170
+
171
+ - **The pack skeleton was unreachable from an installed skill.** `SKILL.md`
172
+ pointed at `templates/style-pack-template.md`, which `files[]` never shipped.
173
+ The skeleton now rides in the bundle as
174
+ `styles/STYLE_PACK_TEMPLATE.md`, kept byte-identical to `templates/`.
175
+ - **`SKILL.md` listed 8 of the 10 pack headings** (no Motion flavor, no
176
+ Gotchas), so an authored pack would legitimately lose sections the packs and
177
+ the template both carry. The contract is now stated once and enforced.
178
+ - **The motion-token contradiction.** `SHELEG_DESIGN.md` §10 declared one
179
+ site-wide ease while `editorial-luxury` and `workbench` legitimately override
180
+ it. §10 now states the defaults *and* that the pack wins; the packs say the
181
+ same from their side.
182
+ - **Stagger drift inside the reference:** the Reveal table said 0.06s and the
183
+ GSAP recipe hard-coded 0.08 against a `STAGGER = 0.07` token; both now read
184
+ the token.
185
+ - **`workbench.css` set `color-scheme: light dark`**, so a page forced to
186
+ `data-theme="dark"` still got UA controls and scrollbars from the OS
187
+ preference. Light `:root`, dark under the attribute; a reduced-motion block
188
+ zeroes the duration tokens.
189
+ - **`--accent-dim` meant opposite things across packs** (a pressed darker blue
190
+ in `instrument-console`, a 12% tint in `editorial-luxury`). The tint is now
191
+ `--accent-weak`, matching `workbench`'s naming.
192
+ - **`workbench.md` shipped prose where tokens belong** ("amber", "red",
193
+ "`#1a7f37`-family") — the table now carries the exact light/dark pairs from
194
+ the CSS, and `--info` is documented as deliberately the accent hue.
195
+ - **CLI help still advertised two style packs** (the success message had been
196
+ fixed, the help text had not), and the bundle blurb omitted the token CSS.
197
+ - **The Cursor rule promised product-UI guidance it never gave** — it now
198
+ carries a self-contained workbench contract for agents without the skill
199
+ installed.
200
+ - README, `marketplace.json`, and the `/sheleg-design` command all described a
201
+ landing-page-only skill; all three now state the product-UI half.
202
+ - Reference cleanups: ASCII architecture diagram re-aligned (the fan-out
203
+ connector was one column off the store box), `bias` added to the store
204
+ fields it lists, the `936 = 24 × 13 × 3` factorization disambiguated from
205
+ scene indices, and a product-specific closing-line example genericized.
206
+
207
+ ### Added
208
+
209
+ - Validator (146 checks, was 101): the **whole** `.cursor/` mirror is compared
210
+ against the plugin bundle file-by-file in both directions (previously only
211
+ `SKILL.md`), the full ten-heading pack contract is enforced on every pack and
212
+ on the template, the shipped template must match `templates/`, and every pack
213
+ must be routed from the `SKILL.md` table and named in the CLI output.
214
+ - CI installs through both channels and `diff -r`s the result against the
215
+ bundle, so a file that reaches one installer and not the other fails the run.
216
+ - `test/scenarios.md` gains T7 (authoring a new pack against the contract).
217
+
218
+ ## [0.8.0] - 2026-07-28
219
+
220
+ ### Fixed
221
+ - The Cursor channel copy of `SKILL.md` could drift from the plugin copy without
222
+ anything noticing. The validator now compares them and fails on drift.
223
+
224
+ ### Changed
225
+ - `RU triggers - …` replaced with English-first pairs
226
+ (`"design tokens" / "дизайн-токены"`), so the description reads as English
227
+ with localized aliases.
228
+ - README is English-only, with a plain statement of what the skill gives you and
229
+ an author/links block.
230
+
231
+ ### Added
232
+ - Validator enforces the description canon: `Use when` opening, Russian trigger
233
+ aliases present, front-matter under 1024 characters.

33
- an agent can rebuild that level on a new site.
29
+ **Motion** for landings, heroes, scroll narratives. A page feels *alive* not
30
+ from many animations but from a **single source of truth** (measured scroll
31

35
+ *redeploy*.
36
+
37
+ **Style packs** — the visual identity, pluggable per project. The `workbench`
38
+ pack is meant to be used **standalone**, with none of the motion layer: quiet
39
+ light/dark product UI for dashboards, admin panels, internal and dev tools.
40
+
41
+ | Pack | Look | Choose for |
42
+ |---|---|---|
43

118
+ ## What you get out of it
119
+
120
+ - **A motion methodology, not a component dump.** Scroll-linked animation,
121
+ particle and WebGL backgrounds, parallax layers that stay in phase instead of
122
+ drifting apart as the page grows.
123
+ - **Product UI with the boring parts already decided** — tokens, light/dark,
124
+ elevation, state colors, data typography — up front rather than retrofitted.
125
+ - **A diagnosis for pages that feel busy or janky**, naming which layer to cut
126
+ instead of telling you to "simplify".
127
+ - **Stack-agnostic and dependency-free.** The reference implementation happens
128
+ to use Next.js + React + three / react-three-fiber + GSAP ScrollTrigger +
129
+ Lenis, but the method applies to any stack that can render to a canvas and
130
+ read scroll. It is a way of building, not a framework you now depend on.
131
+
132
+ ## AI product surfaces
133
+
134
+ Chat, agent runs, streaming output and generated content are the surfaces most
135
+ design systems were written before — and the ones everyone is now building.
136
+ `AI_PRODUCT_PATTERNS.md` covers them with one organizing rule, **honest state**:
137
+ a model's output is slow, uncertain, occasionally refused and sometimes wrong,
138
+ and an interface that hides any of that is not calmer, it is lying.
139
+
140
+ Concretely: five states per call, not two (idle · working · complete · refused ·
141
+ failed — a refusal is not an error and a rate limit is not a crash); streaming
142
+ instead of spinners, with a stop control from the first frame and no reflow; the
143
+ context the model actually used, because most "wrong answer" reports are
144
+ wrong-context reports; an agent's action shown in the shape it will take before
145
+ it runs; and no confidence number with nothing behind it.
146
+
147
+ This is where the skill's positioning is externally measured rather than
148
+ asserted: in Figma's *State of the Designer 2026* (NewtonX, 906 designers,
149
+ Sept–Oct 2025), designing AI-driven products is the **third most in-demand
150
+ skill (37%)** — ahead of motion design and information architecture — while
151
+ **visual polish tops the list at 58%**, and craft is named the differentiator
152
+ now that anyone can prompt their way to a prototype.
153
+
154
+ ## Figma, in both directions
155
+
156
+ Design files and design tokens are two encodings of one system, and the usual
157
+ outcome is that they drift until nobody trusts either. The skill's rule is that
158
+ **the pack is the source of truth on both sides**: publishing writes a pack's
159
+ values into Figma variable collections; implementing a design maps the file's
160
+ values *onto* the pack's tokens instead of inlining hexes.
161
+
162
+ The bridge is specific because the traps are: `workbench`'s light and dark are
163
+ two **modes of one collection**, while `editorial-luxury`'s espresso sections
164
+ are surfaces and not a mode at all; Figma colors are 0..1 floats, not hex; and
165
+ motion never crosses — Figma has no easing variable type, so the ease, durations
166
+ and stagger stay code-only, and shadows are effect styles whose parts bind to
167
+ variables. A value in a file with no matching token is either a gap in the pack
168
+ or drift in the file — the one thing it is never is a literal in a component.
169
+
170
+ ## Optional: Lazyweb MCP
171
+
172
+ A style pack locks *how it looks*. It says nothing about what a good version of
173
+ the screen you're about to build actually **contains**. If the
174
+ [Lazyweb](https://www.lazyweb.com) MCP server is connected, the skill sweeps
175
+ real-world references for the target screen (signup, onboarding, paywall,
176
+ pricing, checkout, dashboard, settings) before laying anything out.
177
+
178
+ The division of labor keeps the result one system: references inform **layout,
179
+ hierarchy and content order**; palette, type and motion stay the pack's. Setup
180
+ is a Streamable HTTP MCP server plus a per-user token — keep it out of your
181
+ repo. Entirely optional; without it the skill works from the pack alone.

190

194
+ runs it on each push and PR alongside a negative self-test (the validator must
