Use when building, changing, redesigning or reviewing any interface a person operates - dashboard, admin panel, table, form, settings, modal, onboarding, mobile app screen, landing page - or choosing its colours, palette or dark theme. Also use when a UI looks AI-generated, cluttered, generic, "vibe coded", over-decorated, unfinished or hard to scan, or when asked to remove AI slop, make a UI clean, plain, polished or professional, fix the UX, or check a build before shipping.

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

# Oxfords

Oxfords, not brogues. An Oxford is the plain shoe. A brogue is the same shoe with decoration
punched into it. This skill makes interfaces that are polished, plain and finished, and
removes the decoration that marks a screen as machine-made.

It does not make a product look striking or give it a brand. It decides what goes on the
screen, where, how visible, how it responds, and what must not be there.

**The test behind every rule:** nobody reads a screen. They arrive with one question and hunt
for the answer. A choice either makes that hunt faster or it is decoration.

**Plain is not generic, and it is not colourless.** Stripping slop and stopping leaves a
white page with grey text and one blue button. That is a default too. Plain is about
structure: every element there for a reason, and finished. Colour is where the product gets
its character. Build on neutrals and put a real palette on top of them.

**Measured, not assumed.** Contrast, clipping, overflow, focus and how much of the screen is
colour are measured by the scripts in this skill. A screen is done when the measurements pass
and you have looked at the screenshots, not when the code looks right.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add arhamhi/oxfords/oxfords@sha256:04294a80d883f255

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.4b11eef, 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.
