Design-It: Sophisticated UI Style Router

This is the main entry point for the design-it skill system. Instead of falling back to generic "AI slop" aesthetics, you have access to 48 distinct, deeply opinionated design styles.

When to Use

Use this skill when a user requests building any frontend interface (website, app screen, UI component) and you want to apply a specific, opinionated design aesthetic instead of generic defaults.

How to Use This Skill

When a user asks you to build a frontend interface (web or app):

  1. Identify the Style (Fuzzy Matching): Look for keywords in their prompt (e.g., "minimal", "glass", "retro"). You do not need an exact match. Use your semantic understanding to map their request to one of the 48 styles. For example:
    • "Apple style" or "VisionOS" -> spatial-design, bento-ui, or glassmorphism
    • "Windows 8" or "Metro" -> tile-design
    • "Terminal" or "Hacker" -> sci-fi-interface or brutalist-typography
    • "Bauhaus" or "Clean" -> swiss-design
    • "Cyber" or "Matrix" -> cyberpunk-ui If they don't specify a style, choose one that best fits the project context.
  2. Read the Style Reference: Check the Style Index below to find the correct path for the chosen style. Use the view_file tool to read its specific SKILL.md.
  3. Pick a Palette: If the user explicitly defined a theme or colors, use their requested colors. If they did NOT specify colors, you MUST choose from one of the 10 Universal Palettes below.
  4. Execute: Write the code following the specific principles of the chosen style. Do not blend styles unless requested.

Universal Color Palettes

If the user provides their own colors, use them. Otherwise, you MUST use one of these 10 award-winning, highly sophisticated palettes to avoid generic neon/purplish gradients. When picking a palette, stick to these exact hex codes and establish CSS variables for them.
