Expert design architect for Neumorphism (Soft UI) interfaces. Use this skill whenever a user asks to design, build, review, critique, improve, generate, or refactor any UI that involves soft UI, neumorphism, extruded elements, soft shadows, raised/inset components, depth effects, tactile interfaces, or "clay-like" aesthetics. Also trigger for any request to check whether neumorphism is appropriate for a given product, brand, or component. This skill functions as a senior product designer + design-system architect + accessibility reviewer — not a CSS recipe generator. Activate it even when neumorphism is only part of a larger design task.

Use when the user wants to design, redesign, shape, critique, audit, polish, clarify, distill, harden, optimize, adapt, animate, colorize, extract, or otherwise improve a frontend interface. Covers websites, landing pages, dashboards, product UI, app shells, components, forms, settings, onboarding, and empty states. Handles UX review, visual hierarchy, information architecture, cognitive load, accessibility, performance, responsive behavior, theming, anti-patterns, typography, fonts, spacing, layout, alignment, color, motion, micro-interactions, UX copy, error states, edge cases, i18n, and reusable design systems or tokens. Also use for bland designs that need to become bolder or more delightful, loud designs that should become quieter, live browser iteration on UI elements, or ambitious visual effects that should feel technically extraordinary. Not for backend-only or non-UI tasks.
