Build or restyle an explicit App Shell UI or macOS-style desktop-tool shell with shared navigation and light/dark themes. Use only when the user asks for this style or invokes the skill. Do not override an existing product identity unless the user explicitly requests it.
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
# App Shell UI You are implementing **App Shell UI**: a reusable frontend design skill with two modes. Choose the surface before choosing pixels. Do not turn every request into a desktop shell, and do not turn every app into a generic marketing page. ## Choose the surface first | Mode | Use for | Default structure | Do not use for | |-------|---------|-------------------|----------------| | **App Mode** | Logged-in tools, settings, consoles, chat, mail, workbenches, operational flows | Persistent left navigation + task canvas | Public marketing, reading, commerce, or portfolio surfaces | | **Website Mode** | Marketing sites, product launches, portfolios, editorial pages, catalogues, docs, public content | A page-specific macrostructure selected from the user journey | A generic hero + three cards + CTA template, or a fake app shell | If the request has both surfaces, design them separately: Website Mode for acquisition or public information, App Mode for the signed-in product. Share brand tokens where appropriate, but do not force the same layout or density across both. ## Pre-flight (both modes) …

How to install
mdr add jensen-yao/agents-skills/app-shell-ui@sha256:015e29764cc50041The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260817.88cdab2, 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.
