Art & Design

Run the complete idea-to-personal-website or blog workflow. Use when the user wants a one-click or end-to-end pipeline from a vague idea, reference URL, template, personal materials, style direction, or writing drafts to concrete style references, a validated static personal site, and optionally a live deployment on GitHub Pages, Cloudflare Pages, Netlify, or Vercel.

Search personal websites and blogs using Exa. Finds individual perspectives, portfolios, tutorials, and personal blogs. Use when searching for personal sites, blog posts, practitioner deep-dives, or portfolio websites.

Route and coordinate the personal website skill suite for creating, recreating, personalizing, adding content to, validating, editing, or preparing a static personal website or blog. Use when the agent needs to choose between theme search, style reference research, original build, website style recreation, personalization, post import, review, local edits, or publishing preparation, or when the user asks what step comes next in an existing site-building workflow.

Publish, deploy, or prepare a finished static personal website, blog, portfolio, or style recreation for hosting on GitHub Pages, Cloudflare Pages, Netlify, or Vercel. Use when the user asks to publish a static site, configure deployment settings, add GitHub Pages workflows, choose a static hosting platform, prepare a repo for Pages/Cloudflare/Netlify/Vercel, verify a deployed URL, or explain how to deploy a site folder such as site/, dist/, out/, public/, or docs/.

Find personal websites with Exa — blogs, portfolios, and homepages. Use to find a person's own writing (not press about them), discover practitioners who blog, or surface indie/portfolio sites. Runs a local script against the Exa API; no MCP server required.

Use this skill after a personal website or blog style direction is roughly known and before building an original site. It searches for real websites, templates, portfolios, blogs, screenshots, or design examples that match the chosen direction, inspects them with browser or screenshot tools when available, and turns the findings into a practical design reference brief for make-personal-site. Use it for requests like finding references for a natural technical blog, cozy research homepage, brutalist portfolio, digital garden, minimal notes site, or any named visual direction that still needs concrete examples.

Audit a design portfolio website against what top design leaders actually look for when hiring. Use with /portfolio-audit <url>.

Maps interaction structure and flow — produces breadboard notation with edge cases, failure paths, and open decisions

Elicits and prioritises user needs (needs, pains, desires) as job stories — produces opportunities ready for product strategy

Diagnostic audit across all seven layers — identifies the bottleneck layer and recommends where to focus

Connects user opportunities to business outcomes and solution bets — produces a strategy tree and prioritised experiments

Audits existing surface against lower-layer decisions and produces a surface decision inventory — vocabulary, object consistency, completeness, feedback, hierarchy, accessibility

Survey any codebase as a senior advisor and produce prioritized, self-contained implementation plans for OTHER models/agents to execute. Strictly read-only on source code — never implements, fixes, or refactors anything itself. Use when asked to audit a codebase, find improvement opportunities (bugs, security, performance, test coverage, tech debt, migrations, DX), suggest features or where to take the project next (roadmap, product direction), or generate handoff plans for another agent to implement.

Ship correct, complete metadata.

Build modern, composable, and accessible React UI components following the components.build specification. Use when creating, reviewing, or refactoring component libraries, design systems, or any reusable UI components. Triggers on tasks involving component APIs, composition patterns, accessibility, styling systems, or TypeScript props.

Maps domain concepts, terminology conflicts, and bounded contexts — produces a noun harvest for the conceptual model layer

User research planning and synthesis at the observed behaviour layer — produces candidate job stories with confidence ratings

Defines the product's objects, relationships, states, and vocabulary independently of any interface — the most load-bearing layer

Framework orientation for Layers of Product Design — load this first; provides the context all other skills depend on

Enforces an opinionated UI baseline to prevent AI-generated interface slop.

Conduct WCAG 2.2 accessibility audits with automated testing, manual verification, and remediation guidance. Use when auditing websites for accessibility, fixing WCAG violations, or implementing accessible design patterns.

Design and implement microinteractions, motion design, transitions, and user feedback patterns. Use when adding polish to UI interactions, implementing loading states, or creating delightful user experiences.

Review UI code for Web Interface Guidelines compliance. Use when asked to "review my UI", "check accessibility", "audit design", "review UX", or "check my site against best practices".
