Refine an existing interface with named commands (critique, polish, distill, typeset, colorize ...), a product and design context file, and a static detector of generic UI patterns. Use when UI looks generic, cluttered or unfinished.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Interface Refinement

A shared vocabulary for improving interfaces that already exist. Each command names one kind of
change (`distill` removes, `typeset` fixes type, `colorize` gives colour a job, `harden` survives
real content), says what it may change and what it must leave alone, and ends with a check that
produces evidence. A context file records the product and its visual system so commands decide
from facts. A static detector finds the patterns that make an interface look assembled from
defaults: side stripes on rounded cards, gradient text, violet-to-cyan gradients, cream page
grounds, eyebrow labels over headings, cards inside cards, chip soup, rows of identical cards,
emoji icons, radial hazes, clip-path blobs, faint grey text, removed focus rings, broken images,
template headlines and vague button labels. Given the context file, it also reports every literal
colour, face, size and radius that has drifted outside the recorded system.

The agent reads the context file and the craft floor before any edit, keeps every change inside
the named target, and never calls a refinement done without the evidence its command reference
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add borghei/claude-skills/interface-refinement@sha256:d0233a762d13aa9a

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
