Interface Craft and Accessibility

Overview

The standard is accessible, minimalist, and beautiful — by construction, not by polish. Taste is unactionable as a rule, so it's converted into constraints, precedent, and escalation. The agent isn't asked to invent taste, only to honor constraints and escalate the rest.

Accessibility — a Requirement, Not a Finishing Pass

Checkable rules:

  • Every interactive element is keyboard-reachable with a visible focus state.
  • Every control has an accessible name; every form field has an associated label and clear error messaging.
  • Semantic HTML and landmarks over div soup.
  • Color contrast meets WCAG AA; meaning is never conveyed by color alone.
  • Honor reduced-motion preferences.

Beautiful and Minimalist — as Constraints, Not Vibes

  • Consistency through constraint. Use the design system's tokens — spacing, type scale, color scale. No one-off magic numbers. Coherence is the aesthetic.
  • Existing screens are the style guide. Match the established visual language before inventing.
  • Restraint (UI-YAGNI). Every element earns its place; remove until removing breaks something. Hierarchy and whitespace over density and decoration.
  • Prefer the component library's patterns before building custom UI.
  • Two similar UI elements → one parameterized component. Differences are props/variants, never copy-paste. A third copy is a defect. (DRY applied to the interface.)

The Escalation Rule

Taste decisions escalate; they are never freelanced. When a choice is genuinely aesthetic and underdetermined by tokens or precedent, do not silently guess:

  1. Follow the nearest existing precedent, or
  2. Surface options (mockups, side-by-side comparisons) for a human taste call.

Quick Reference

SituationDo
New component resembles an existing oneParameterize the existing one; don't copy
A spacing/color value isn't in the tokensUse the nearest token; don't invent a magic number
Genuinely novel visual decisionEscalate with options; don't freelance
Adding an interactive elementKeyboard + focus + accessible name, from the start

Enforcement: a11y linting/tests in CI (e.g. eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y, axe) for the checkable rules; aesthetic restraint is reviewer judgment via the escalation rule.

Individual skills in this repo

This repo contains 18 individual skills — each has its own dedicated page.

lguidolin/change-hygiene-and-code-craft

Use when writing or refactoring code, structuring a commit or PR, or deciding whether to abstract duplication. Symptoms — mixing reorg with logic changes, a PR doing several things at once, a file growing large, the second copy of similar code, or unsure whether to DRY something up.

lguidolin/cloud-delivery-aks

Use when deploying to Kubernetes or Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), configuring cloud secrets, setting up progressive rollout/canary, per-PR ephemeral environments, or k8s health probes. Keywords — Kubernetes, AKS, Key Vault, Argo Rollouts, Flagger, canary, blue-green, liveness, readiness, PodDisruptionBudget, HPA, rollback, GHCR.

lguidolin/commit-history-rewrite

Use when an existing repository has messy commit history that needs to conform to conventional commits before adopting release-please, or when intermediate WIP/fixup/merge commits need to be cleaned up.

lguidolin/conventional-commits-and-releases

Use when committing, writing a commit message, opening a PR that will be squash-merged, or configuring automated versioning/changelogs. Keywords — conventional commits, release-please, semver, feat/fix/chore, breaking change, changelog.

lguidolin/defense-in-depth-security

Use when handling untrusted input, secrets, authentication/authorization, or dependencies — or threat-modeling a new surface. Keywords — STRIDE, threat model, least privilege, secrets management, supply chain, dependency scanning, input validation, audit log, defense in depth.

lguidolin/designing-before-building

Use when starting a feature, fixing a non-trivial bug, or about to write implementation code — before any code exists. Symptoms you need this: "this is simple, I'll just code it", reaching for the editor before a design is approved, or an idea that hasn't been turned into a spec and plan.

lguidolin/engineering-constitution

Use when starting work in a project that follows the engineering constitution, orienting to its rules, or deciding which engineering practice applies to a task — spec writing, commits, testing, security, deploys, database, or UI work.

lguidolin/graphql-contract-testing

Use when writing a GraphQL query/mutation that the UI and a test will share, or building route/schema contract or smoke tests. Symptoms — copying a query into a test, a test asserting on query text, schema change that didn't break the UI build, or RLS/permission drift. Keywords — graphql-codegen, typed document, contract test, route smoke test.

lguidolin/init-repo-CI

Use when setting up a new repository with conventional commits, release-please, and CI automation, or when retrofitting an existing repository that lacks automated versioning and PR validation workflows.

lguidolin/merge-gates-and-automation

Use when setting up or changing CI, pre-push hooks, or a task runner, or deciding what must pass before merge. Symptoms — tempted to put authoritative checks only in a local hook, skip CI, bypass with --no-verify, or unsure what gates a merge vs. runs locally.

lguidolin/observability-and-slos

Use when adding logging, metrics, tracing, health checks, SLOs, or alerting — or when building a service surface that needs to be operable and debuggable. Keywords — structured logs, OpenTelemetry, correlation id, RED metrics, liveness, readiness, SLI, SLO, error budget, alerting.

lguidolin/performance-and-scale

Use when working on hot paths, list endpoints, pagination, data-access in loops, or public interfaces/schemas. Symptoms — unbounded queries, N+1 access, no latency budget, optimizing without measuring, or changing an interface many consumers depend on. Keywords — pagination, N+1, Hyrum's Law, performance budget, bundle size.

lguidolin/postgres-postgraphile-rls-and-sql

Use when writing PostgreSQL, PostGraphile config, Row-Level Security policies, SQL schema files, or working on the Browser→App→PostGraphile→Postgres data path. Keywords — RLS, SECURITY DEFINER, search_path, pgSettings, grants, roles, GraphQL depth limit, query cost, statement_timeout, SQL file organization.

lguidolin/recording-decisions

Use when a design or architecture decision has been made and needs to be captured — writing a decision record or ADR, updating a decision index, noting a deferred idea, or superseding a past decision. Keywords — ADR, decision record, rationale, rejected alternatives, dependency index.

lguidolin/resilience-and-deploy-safety

Use when planning a deploy, designing a rollback, or responding to an incident or writing a postmortem. Keywords — deploy safety, rollback, immutable artifact, progressive delivery, canary, blast radius, incident response, blameless postmortem, error budget.

lguidolin/ship-it

Use when the user wants to ship work — push, PR, archive decision records, merge, and clean up. Handles the full lifecycle from committing final changes through post-merge cleanup including converting specs/plans to compact decision records.

lguidolin/tests-as-a-control

Use when writing or modifying tests, when a test breaks during a refactor, or when testing permission/role rules. Symptoms — tempted to edit a test to make it pass, testing only the happy path, a deny-test that started passing, flaky tests, or unsure what to assert.

lguidolin/zero-downtime-migrations

Use when changing a database schema where data must survive the change — adding/removing/renaming columns, constraints, indexes, or backfilling. Symptoms — a destructive migration bundled with a code deploy, a NOT NULL column with a backfill, a table-locking UPDATE, or a rename. Keywords — expand/contract, parallel change, backfill, NOT VALID, CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY, graphile-migrate.
