apply-aesthetic

Apply a visual direction — an archetype (high-end agency, editorial minimal, brutalist, soft-SaaS, dark-tech) or one of 138 named design systems (apple, linear-app, stripe, vercel, notion, material, shadcn, spotify, tesla…) — by resolving it into the token system. Use when the user wants a specific look/vibe/brand feel, or asks to make a design feel premium/expensive/non-generic.

Skill: Apply Aesthetic

Step 0 — is the kit here? This skill reads files from the kit. Check once: ls ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../tokens >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo KIT_OK || echo KIT_MISSING On KIT_MISSING only the skill folders were installed, which is what npx skills add does. Say so plainly, point the user at npx ux-ui-agent-skills init or the plugin install, and stop. Do not guess the contents of a file you could not open.

Choose and apply a design direction without breaking accessibility.

Steps

  1. Brief Inference first (mandatory) — before any tokens, name it: industry/domain, audience & tone, the one mood adjective the result must earn, motion depth, and the layout-family sequence (${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../taste/design-taste.md → Brief Inference + Variance Mandate). Generating before deciding = slop.
  2. Pick a direction in ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../taste/aesthetic-systems.md:
    • An archetype (recipe mapped to our tokens), or
    • A named library system — browse with python3 ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../scripts/design_systems.py list (or search <term> / show <name>); specs live in ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../design-systems/library/<name>/DESIGN.md.
  3. Apply the Library Contract (in aesthetic-systems.md): re-point semantic.* tokens to the chosen system's color roles; map typography/spacing/radius/shadow/motion to ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../tokens/*.json.
  4. Verify contrast of every mapped color pair (${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../scripts/contrast.py / a11y-audit). A brand value that fails must be adjusted — taste never overrides POUR.
  5. Add motion per ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../taste/motion-choreography.md; run the pre-flight aesthetic check in design-taste.md.

Output

Updated/overridden semantic tokens + notes on type/space/motion, then render via design-code. Confirm the result passes both the aesthetic check and accessibility.

Generate a complete, accessible brand design system from a brief — primitive → semantic → component DTCG tokens (color, type, spacing, radius, shadow, motion), light + dark, plus a single theme.css — verified for WCAG. Use when the user wants a from-scratch brand/design foundation, a new palette + type system, or a themeable token kit for a product.

Build a dense, data-heavy screen - an analytics console or a trading terminal - with real charts drawn from tokens: candlestick, volume, depth, stacked area, waterfall, scatter, correlation matrix, donut, gauge, sparklines, heatmaps and order books. Use when the request is a dashboard, terminal, monitoring view, data console, or any screen whose job is to show many numbers at once. Covers the layout sequence, the SVG geometry, the accessibility contract per chart type, and the contrast traps that only appear in dark mode.
