Test it
Using "critique". A dashboard screenshot with many cards, equal button weights, and muted labels.
Expected outcome:
The primary action is hard to find because every card has similar weight. Increase contrast for the main action and reduce secondary controls.
Using "critique". A landing page mockup with gradient text, glass panels, and repeated metric cards.
Expected outcome:
The page reads as generic AI-generated design. Replace decorative effects with product-specific imagery, clearer hierarchy, and sharper proof points.
Using "critique". A settings page with unclear labels and no saved state feedback.
Expected outcome:
The form lacks confidence cues. Rewrite labels around user intent and add visible saving, success, and error states.

The only static finding is a false positive. The flagged line is a design critique test about perceived AI-generated visual quality, not system reconnaissance or environment inspection.

What You Can Build
Review a new product screen
Identify hierarchy, copy, and layout issues before a feature reaches customers.
Improve generated UI work
Find visual patterns that make an interface feel generic or AI-generated.
Prepare design feedback
Create direct critique notes for product reviews, design reviews, or stakeholder discussions.
Try These Prompts
Quick screen critique
Critique this screen from a UX and visual design perspective. Focus on the biggest issue and the clearest fix.
Prioritize launch fixes
Review this interface for launch readiness. List the top five design issues in priority order with concrete fixes.
Assess brand fit
Critique this design for visual hierarchy, emotional tone, brand fit, and user trust. Explain what feels intentional or weak.
Run a detailed design audit
Perform a full critique across hierarchy, architecture, affordance, composition, typography, color, states, and microcopy. Include direct remediation steps.
Best Practices
- Provide screenshots, mockups, or a clear description of the current interface.
- Include the target audience, product goal, and brand attributes.
- Ask for prioritized fixes when time or scope is limited.
Avoid
- Using the skill without showing the interface or describing the design.
- Asking only for praise instead of specific problems and tradeoffs.
- Ignoring product goals, user context, and brand direction.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does this skill review?
