Distinctive, non-generic visual identity for new landing pages and public-facing UI. TRIGGER when: designing a new marketing/landing page or brand-forward UI that must not look templated. SKIP: rules, palette and font databases, a11y checklists (use ui-ux-pro-max); component code (use react-patterns).
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.

# Frontend Design — A Look Worth Remembering
Use when the goal is a page that looks **specific to its subject**, not like the
output every generator converges on. This skill is about *taste and decisions*.
For reference data (style catalogue, palettes, font pairings, UX rules, a11y), use
`ui-ux-pro-max`; for component code, `react-patterns` / `mui-styling`.
## Boundary with `ui-ux-pro-max`
| Question | Skill |
|----------|-------|
| "Which palette / font pair / UX rule fits this product type?" | `ui-ux-pro-max` (lookup) |
| "How do I make this page feel unlike every other one?" | `frontend-design` (direction) |
| Internal tool, dashboard, admin UI, existing design system | `ui-ux-pro-max` only — conventions beat novelty there |
| New landing page, campaign, portfolio, public product site | `frontend-design`, then `ui-ux-pro-max` to verify a11y/contrast |
If the user or an existing design system already fixes the look, follow it. This
skill only fills the choices the brief leaves open.
## 1. Anchor in the subject
Before any visual choice, write three lines: **what it is, who it is for, what the
visitor should do first.** Pull visual material from the subject's own world —
…
The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261020.0990fb3, 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.
