tasteskill v2, the anti-slop frontend skill. Art direction for websites, distilled from a study of 247 curated gallery sites (One Page Love, Awwwards Sites of the Day). Deals researched directions (idea, composition, type, palette, photographs, section blueprints) from a library, enforces a strict no-slop house style with a real-browser inspector, and runs a look-and-fix loop on screenshots. Use this whenever you build, design, redesign, restyle, polish or review a landing page, marketing…
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
# tasteskill v2
A page built by a model usually looks like the average of every page the model has seen: a centred
headline over three lines, a little label above it, a row of icon cards, a soft gradient, a few thin
rules and a monospace caption. Nothing in it is wrong and nothing in it was decided.
This skill replaces those defaults with decisions, in four ways:
1. **A script deals the directions, you choose among them.** Asked to invent a look, a model picks
the category default every time. `scripts/draw.mjs` deals three of twenty researched directions;
you choose the one that carries the subject's idea, and the script then deals its type system,
palette, hero and section compositions from a library distilled from 247 real sites.
2. **The idea comes from the subject.** In the study, what separated the best sites from the forgettable
ones was a concept taken from the thing itself, not the styling.
3. **A house style with no ornaments,** measured in a real browser by `scripts/inspect.mjs`, so the
rules are checked rather than hoped for.
4. **You look at what you made.** Screenshots at three widths, a juror's rubric, fix, look again.

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261023.8a6f902, 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.
