Comprehensive design elevation system that automatically transforms functional visual outputs into polished, professional designs. Use when creating ANY visual output including presentations (pptx), spreadsheets (xlsx), dashboards, reports, HTML artifacts, PDFs, web pages, or data visualizations. Applies systematic design thinking grounded in Tailwind CSS as the canonical design token system. Structures decisions through functional patterns (what users interact with) and perceptual patterns…

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 Elevation System

This skill transforms functional visual outputs into polished, professional designs by applying systematic design thinking and refinement protocols.

## Design Philosophy

Follow Alla Kholmatova's design systems framework: every design decision is either a **functional pattern** (what users interact with — structure, layout, components) or a **perceptual pattern** (how it feels — color, typography, spacing, motion). Both layers must be intentional.

### Canonical Design Tokens: Tailwind CSS

All design decisions should map to **Tailwind CSS** as the shared design language. This means:
- Colors from Tailwind's palette (gray, blue, emerald, amber, rose, violet, etc.)
- Spacing from Tailwind's scale (1 = 0.25rem/4px, 2 = 0.5rem/8px, 4 = 1rem/16px, etc.)
- Typography from Tailwind's type scale (text-xs through text-9xl)
- Border radius from Tailwind's system (rounded-sm through rounded-2xl)
- Shadows from Tailwind's elevation (shadow-sm through shadow-2xl)

When writing CSS or HTML, use Tailwind utility classes. When defining design tokens for other formats (presentations, documents), translate Tailwind values into the target medium.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add cuellarfr/design-skills/design-elevation@sha256:6bf97293d3d55a19

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260930.7e25e66, 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.
