SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Design teams and developers often ship interfaces that look generic, AI-generated, or suffer from weak visual hierarchy without receiving structured, actionable feedback. This Skill provides a design-director-style critique that identifies specific problems and prescribes concrete fixes. ## Core Features & Use Cases - AI Slop Detection: Flags fingerprints of AI-generated design such as gradient text, glassmorphism, generic fonts, and identical card grids. - Ten-Dimension Evaluation: Assesses visual hierarchy, information architecture, emotional resonance, discoverability, composition, typography, color, states, and microcopy. - Prioritized Report: Produces an anti-patterns verdict, overall impression, priority issues with concrete fixes, and recommended follow-up commands. - Use Case: After building a new dashboard page, run a critique to learn that the primary action lacks prominence and the layout uses a generic AI color palette, then receive specific commands like /bolder or /colorize to fix each issue. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to critique the current interface design and report the top priority issues with recommended fixes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I get a UX design critique of my interface?

Run the critique skill against your interface, optionally naming a specific feature or area to focus on. It evaluates ten design dimensions and returns a structured report with priority issues, concrete fixes, and recommended follow-up commands.

How to detect AI-generated design patterns in a UI?

The critique skill's first check is AI slop detection, which flags common AI-generated tells like gradient text, glassmorphism, dark mode with glowing accents, generic fonts, and identical card grids. It gives a pass/fail verdict with specific anti-patterns found.

What does the design critique report include?

The report contains an anti-patterns verdict, overall impression, 2-3 things working well, 3-5 priority issues each with a fix and recommended command, minor observations, and provocative questions to unlock better solutions.

Does the critique skill require other skills to run?

Yes, it depends on the frontend-design skill for design principles, anti-patterns, and the Context Gathering Protocol. If no design context exists yet, you must run teach-impeccable first before critiquing.

When should I not use a design critique workflow?

Avoid it for purely technical code review or accessibility compliance auditing, since it focuses on experiential design quality rather than correctness. It is also premature before any design context has been gathered for the project.
