Craft-focused design philosophy for building interfaces where every detail compounds into something that feels right. Covers animation decision framework (frequency, purpose, easing, duration) with custom cubic-bezier curves and performance rules for UI interactions Includes component patterns: button press feedback, origin-aware popovers, tooltip delays, blur masking, and clip-path reveals Provides gesture and drag principles: momentum-based dismissal, boundary damping, and friction instead of hard stops Details CSS transform mastery, stagger animations, and accessibility considerations (prefers-reduced-motion, touch hover states) Emphasizes unseen details, taste as trained instinct, and cohesion across the entire experience

When to use it

• Use this skill when the task matches the package name, repository context, or skills.sh topic: Design & UI.
• Prefer it when a repeatable workflow is better than a one-off prompt: setup, review, design, deployment, automation, research, media generation, or operational checks.
• For production work, read the linked repository and install command before allowing the agent to run scripts or modify files.

How an agent should use it

1. Confirm the user intent and whether this skill is the right fit.
2. Install or inspect the skill with the official command from skills.sh.
3. Read the local SKILL.md and only load extra files referenced by that skill.
4. Follow the skill's workflow, then verify the result with tests, screenshots, audits, or source-backed checks as appropriate.
5. Record any constraints, missing credentials, tool permissions, or security warnings before handoff.

Quality and safety checks

• Check repository ownership and source reputation: emilkowalski/skill.
• Review security audit signals before installing; skills.sh reports: Gen Agent Trust Hub Pass Socket Pass Snyk Pass.
• Never grant broad shell, browser, cloud, or deployment permissions without user approval.
• Treat generated output as draft until validated by the skill's own acceptance criteria.
• If the skill touches cloud resources, costs, credentials, customer data, or production deploys, require a human review step.
