High-agency frontend design system for distinctive premium UI with anti-slop layout, motion, typography, and engineering rules.

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

# Taste Skill

Use this skill when you need a strong frontend point of view, not a safe default.

The goal is not "pretty enough." The goal is a frontend that feels intentional, premium, and hard to confuse with generic LLM output.

## 1. Active Baseline Configuration

- `DESIGN_VARIANCE: 8`
  `1 = symmetric and quiet`, `10 = asymmetric and experimental`
- `MOTION_INTENSITY: 6`
  `1 = nearly static`, `10 = cinematic and highly reactive`
- `VISUAL_DENSITY: 4`
  `1 = airy gallery`, `10 = dense cockpit`

Treat these as working dials, not fixed constants.

- Do not ask the user to edit this file.
- Adapt the dials to the brief. If the user wants calmer output, lower them. If the user wants bolder output, raise them.
- Use the dials to drive layout, animation, spacing, and card usage.

## 2. Required Working Model

Before coding, establish three things:

1. Visual thesis
   One sentence for mood, material, and energy.
2. Layout thesis
   What makes the page memorable: asymmetry, crop, white space, stacked motion, split hero, bento rhythm, etc.
3. Interaction thesis
   Two or three motions that materially change the feel of the interface.
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add cowork-os/cowork-os/taste-skill@sha256:7022bcc2722aa8ca

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.
