This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed, one of 3 indexed copies. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.
refactoring-ui from wondelai/skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add wondelai/skills/refactoring-ui@v1.5.1Pins v1.5.1 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Audit and fix visual hierarchy, spacing, color, and depth in web UIs. Use when the user mentions "my UI looks off" (or amateur/unprofessional), "fix the design", "Tailwind styling", "color palette", "visual hierarchy", "design system", "spacing scale", or "component styling". Also trigger when building consistent design tokens, creating dark mode themes, improving data-visualization clarity, or polishing UI details before launch. Covers grayscale-first workflow, constrained design scales…
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
# Refactoring UI Design System A practical, opinionated approach to UI design. Apply these principles when generating frontend code, reviewing designs, or advising on visual improvements. ## Core Principle **Design in grayscale first. Add color last.** This forces proper hierarchy through spacing, contrast, and typography before relying on color as a crutch. **The foundation:** Great UI isn't about talent — it's about systems. Constrained scales for spacing, type, color, and shadows produce consistently professional results. Start with too much white space and remove; leave details (icons, shadows, micro-interactions) until layout and hierarchy work. ## Scoring **Goal: 10/10.** Score by counting satisfied rows in the [Quick Diagnostic](#quick-diagnostic) (8 yes/no checks): `score = round(satisfied / 8 × 10)`. Bands follow directly: **10** = all 8 pass (hierarchy reads blurred and in grayscale, every value on a scale); **9** = exactly 1 gap (usually weak hierarchy or thin white space); **6-8** = 2-3 gaps; **<=5** = 4+ gaps (arbitrary spacing, color doing the work hierarchy should, or failing contrast). Always state the current score and the specific diagnostic rows to fix to… …

How to install
mdr add wondelai/skills/refactoring-ui@sha256:d10d15b81aa00f42The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.5.1, 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.
