Impeccable (pbakaus/impeccable)

This skill equips the AI agent with a professional design vocabulary and actionable steering commands to audit, polish, and optimize generated user interfaces.

Steering Commands

Use these commands directly in your prompt to trigger specific design actions:

• /audit: Audit the current layout and UI from a professional designer's perspective. Output an audit checklist covering contrast (WCAG AA), typography hierarchy, spacing alignments, and visual friction points.
• /polish: Focus on micro-interactions, spacing (padding/margins), borders, border-radius, shadows, and transitions. Do not restructure the HTML layout; only refine details for maximum polish.
• /bolder: Enhance visual weight and contrast. Make headers larger, use bolder font weights, introduce stronger color contrasts, and expand vertical margins.
• /distill: Simplify the UI. Remove unnecessary borders, backgrounds, card wrapping, and lines. Increase negative space (whitespace) to let core components breathe.
• /animate: Refine animations and transitions. Use stagger entries (animation-delay), smooth bezier curves, and micro-hover states to make the interface feel responsive and alive.

Core Design Principles

• OKLCH Color Space: Encourage the use of OKLCH colors for CSS gradients and themes to ensure smooth, natural hue transitions without muddy middle colors.
• Typography: Avoid generic default fonts. Maintain an explicit typographic scale where headings are large and characterful, and body copy is readable.
• Space as Structure: Treat empty space (whitespace) as a physical design component. Do not crowd elements.
• UX Writing: Write clean, concise, human-grade UI text. Avoid generic placeholder copy, corporate jargon, and overly formal greetings.
