Define the structural layer of a product or site before visual design begins. Covers navigation, content hierarchy, page structure, URL patterns, and user flows. Use when user wants to plan site structure, define navigation, map user flows, organize content, or mentions "IA" or "information architecture".

This repo contains 7 individual skills — each has its own dedicated page.
Break a design brief into an ordered checklist of independently buildable tasks using vertical slices. Saves as a markdown checklist. Use when user wants to break down work, create tasks from a brief, plan implementation order, or mentions "tasks" or "breakdown".
Create a design brief through an interactive interview, codebase exploration, and experience design decisions. Saved as a markdown file in the project. Use when user wants to write a design brief, plan a new feature or page, define a UI direction, or mentions "brief".
Run the full design-to-build workflow as a guided sequence. Orchestrates all designer skills in order, from grilling through review. Use when user wants to go through the complete design process, start a project from scratch, run the full flow, or mentions "design flow" or "full workflow".
Run a structured design critique against the brief and codebase. Checks visual hierarchy, consistency, responsiveness, accessibility, and aesthetic fidelity. Use when user wants a design review, critique, QA pass, polish pass, or mentions "review" after building.
Generate a design tokens file (CSS variables or Tailwind config) based on a chosen aesthetic philosophy, with light and dark mode palettes, spacing scale, type ramp, and component-level tokens. Use when starting a new project, establishing a visual system, setting up tokens, or mentions "tokens" or "design system".
Build distinctive, production-grade frontend interfaces with high design quality, guided by named aesthetic philosophies. Use when building components, pages, or applications. Generates working code with exceptional attention to aesthetic details and creative choices that avoid generic AI output.
Interview the user relentlessly about a plan or design until reaching shared understanding, resolving each branch of the decision tree. Use when user wants to stress-test a plan, get grilled on their design, challenge an approach, or mentions "grill me".
State-of-the-art text-to-image generation with Stable Diffusion models via HuggingFace Diffusers. Use when generating images from text prompts, performing image-to-image translation, inpainting, or building custom diffusion pipelines.
Improve layout, spacing, and visual rhythm. Fixes monotonous grids, inconsistent spacing, and weak visual hierarchy. Use when the user mentions layout feeling off, spacing issues, visual hierarchy, crowded UI, alignment problems, or wanting better composition.
Comprehensive technology stack blueprint generator that analyzes codebases to create detailed architectural documentation. Automatically detects technology stacks, programming languages, and implementation patterns across multiple platforms (.NET, Java, JavaScript, React, Python). Generates configurable blueprints with version information, licensing details, usage patterns, coding conventions, and visual diagrams. Provides implementation-ready templates and maintains architectural consistency for guided development.
Create distinctive, production-grade frontend interfaces with high design quality. Use when the user asks to build web components, pages, or applications and the visual direction matters as much as the code quality.
Generate architecture documentation using C4 model Mermaid diagrams. Use when asked to create architecture diagrams, document system architecture, visualize software structure, create C4 diagrams, or generate context/container/component/deployment diagrams. Triggers include "architecture diagram", "C4 diagram", "system context", "container diagram", "component diagram", "deployment diagram", "document architecture", "visualize architecture".
MUST be used whenever integrating CogniteFileViewer into a Flows app to preview CDF files (PDFs, images, text). Do NOT manually wire up react-pdf or file resolution — this skill handles installation, Vite config, worker setup, and component usage. Triggers: file viewer, file preview, CogniteFileViewer, PDF viewer, view CDF files, document viewer, preview file.
