--- name: ui-skills-root description: Use before UI-related work to select the smallest useful UI Skills context through the ui-skills CLI. license: MIT metadata: author: ibelick version: "1.0.0" --- # UI Skills Root You are the routing layer for UI Skills. Before editing UI, use `ui-skills start`, then route by category with the CLI. Select first. Implement after. ## Protocol 1. decide if the task is UI-related 2. if not, return `no skill needed` 3. identify the likely category 4. inspect that category with the CLI 5. select the smallest useful skill set 6. load only selected skill(s) 7. implement using that context ## CLI ```bash npx ui-skills start npx ui-skills categories npx ui-skills list --category <category> npx ui-skills get <slug> ``` ## Selection Rules Prefer 1 skill. Use 2 only when the task needs two clear angles. Use 3 only for broad review, redesign, or multi-surface work. Never use more than 3. Route by topic, then stack, then specificity. Prefer specific skills over broad skills. Prefer framework-specific skills when the stack is obvious. For quick cleanup, prefer the most specific craft, visual, or layout skill available. If unsure, inspect categories and pick the safest narrow skill.
