Design parent hub. Routes one design identity to the mode that owns the decision, starting with sk-design-fundamentals.

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

<!-- Keywords: design, spacing, padding, typography, colour, contrast, hierarchy, design review, ux laws, design fundamentals -->

# Design (parent hub)

`sk-design` is a parent hub. It carries no procedure of its own: it decides which mode owns the
decision in front of you and hands over. The work lives in the modes.

---

## 1. WHEN TO USE

Use this hub when the question is what a surface should look like, why it looks wrong, or what
visual artifact answers it: spacing, type, colour, contrast, hierarchy, a review of an existing
surface against design criteria, a data chart, or a process diagram. The surface can be screen UI, a
slide deck, a printed page or a document layout.

### When NOT to Use

- **Measuring a surface that already exists into a written specification.** That is this hub's
  EXTRACT mode, reached by naming the source; it is not the values path.
- **Authoring documentation prose.** `sk-doc` owns that, including READMEs, changelogs and playbooks.
- **Implementing the values once decided.** `sk-code` owns the code that renders them; this hub
  decides what they should be and never writes the component.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add michelkerkmeester/skilled-agent-harness_spec-driven-loops/sk-design@sha256:f111f6a067e8d9d0

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0.3.0, 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.
