## Capabilities

- Defines a four-stage workflow covering concept, implementation, verification, and iteration.
- Guides aesthetic direction based on user context, purpose, and technical constraints.
- Provides recommendations for typography, color, motion, composition, backgrounds, and visual effects.
- Supports frontend work using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, Vue, and similar technologies.
- Prompts checks for visual hierarchy, interaction quality, animation behavior, and accessibility requirements.

## Use Cases

- Create a Product Page: Develop a distinct visual direction and implementation plan for a new product page.
- Refresh a Web Application: Replace generic interface choices with a cohesive style that matches product goals.
- Review a Design Implementation: Evaluate hierarchy, cohesion, motion, accessibility, and originality before release.

## Prompt Templates

### Design a Simple Page

```
Design a [page type] for [audience]. Use [framework] and prioritize [goal]. Define the visual direction before implementing the interface.
```

### Create a Branded Interface

```
Build a [product] interface for [audience]. Use these brand traits: [traits]. Address typography, color, composition, motion, accessibility, and responsive behavior.
```

### Redesign an Existing Experience

```
Review the existing [page or component] and redesign it for [objective]. Preserve [constraints]. Explain the concept, implement it, then verify interactions and accessibility.
```

### Direct a Complex Frontend System

```
Create a production frontend for [product] using [technology]. Serve [user groups] and support [workflows]. Establish a distinct design language and reusable implementation rules.
```

## Limitations

- Provides design guidance but does not include reusable components, templates, or visual assets.
- Does not define specific accessibility standards or detailed testing procedures.
- Does not prescribe framework-specific architecture, state management, or deployment practices.
- Results depend on the supplied product context, audience, constraints, and existing design system.

## Best Practices

- Provide the audience, purpose, brand traits, framework, accessibility needs, and performance constraints.
- Choose one coherent aesthetic direction before selecting fonts, colors, motion, and composition.
- Verify responsive layouts, interactions, accessibility, and visual hierarchy before refining decorative details.

## Anti Patterns

- Do not request a distinctive design without describing the product, audience, or intended outcome.
- Do not add elaborate motion or effects that weaken usability, accessibility, or performance.
- Do not copy the same font, palette, and layout across unrelated products.

## Security Audit

- Audited at: 2026-07-23T12:12:52.33\+00:00
- Summary: All four static alerts are false positives caused by ordinary visual design language in SKILL.md. No system reconnaissance, prompt injection, or other malicious intent was found.
