Combines all of the `better-*` skills into a single review across accessibility, layout, writing, typography, color and UI polish.

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

# Cross-discipline review

<!-- CORE-OVERLAY-START -->

## This repository (Asymmetric-al/core)

This is a change-review companion. Load `better-writing`
with it when copy is in scope. Do not treat it as a mandate to restyle Core
apps.
Keep Core's Base UI, `base-maia` style, Zinc tokens, and
`docs/ai/rules/frontend.md` authoritative. Reconcile this overlay after upstream refreshes
before running `bun run skills:sync`.

### Triggers

- Reviewing a UI change across polish, type, layout, color, writing, and
  accessibility categories.
- Pair with `interface-review` only when that explicit review skill is
  invoked.

### Workflow

1. Stay on the changed surfaces. Do not audit the whole product.
2. Defer Core a11y ownership to `docs/ai/skills/accessibility-review/SKILL.md`.
3. Keep `base-maia`, Base UI, and frontend.md above generic taste notes.
4. Load `docs/ai/skills/better-writing/SKILL.md` when writing findings need
   the dedicated copy skill.

### Checklist

- [ ] Findings stayed on the change, not a redesign brief.
- [ ] `better-writing` was used when copy was in scope.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add asymmetric-al/core/better-interface@sha256:e6b42beeade1ac7b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261022.752a38b, 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.
