Evaluate and refine UI the way a senior product designer would, visual hierarchy, spacing and rhythm, typographic scale, legibility, information density, alignment, and restraint, then apply the highest-leverage fixes. Use this skill WHENEVER the user says a UI / page / screen / component feels 'clunky', 'packed', 'cramped', 'busy', 'off', 'amateur', 'cluttered', or 'needs polish'; when they ask to 'improve the design / layout / hierarchy / spacing / legibility', 'make this look designed /…

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

# Design Review: the senior product designer's eye

Evaluate a screen the way a senior product designer does, then apply the highest-leverage fixes. The
goal is never decoration. It is to make the screen's **one job** unmistakable, through hierarchy,
whitespace, legibility, and restraint. A good pass usually *removes and quiets* more than it adds.

> "Less, but better." (Dieter Rams) · "Above all else show the data." (Edward Tufte)

## The one move: emphasize by de-emphasizing

The single most valuable senior instinct: when the important thing doesn't stand out, **don't pile
on more emphasis; quiet the things competing with it, or remove them.** A UI that feels "clunky",
"packed", or "busy" is almost always *too many equal-weight signals*. The fix is **remove → demote →
quiet**, and only rarely *add*. Emphasis is a fixed budget you allocate, not a property you sprinkle:
if everything is bold, nothing is.

## First, respect the design system

Before touching a single style, find the project's design language and work *inside* it:
- A brand / design-system doc (`brand.md`, `design-system.md`, a Figma/tokens export).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add flagrare/agent-skills/design-review@sha256:a29248c9bc57c47a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261014.0a5d2b2, 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.
