Applies a deliberate visual direction to an interface — minimalist editorial, industrial utilitarian, or high-polish commercial — each with its own type scale, palette behavior, surface treatment, and motion. Use this when a product needs a point of view rather than defaults, when choosing between visual directions, when an interface reads as generic, or when restyling something without changing its structure.
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 styles Three directions, each internally consistent. Pick one deliberately and apply it completely — half-applied styles read as mistakes, not hybrids. ## Choosing | Direction | Reads as | Fits when | |---|---|---| | **Minimalist editorial** | Calm, content-first, confident | The content is the product: docs, writing tools, reading surfaces, analytics where data should dominate | | **Industrial utilitarian** | Precise, dense, tool-like | The user is an operator, not a visitor: developer tooling, dashboards, internal systems | | **High-polish commercial** | Expensive, considered, reassuring | Perceived quality drives the decision: marketing surfaces, onboarding, anything asking for trust or money | If the brief does not imply one, ask. Defaulting is how products end up looking like their framework's starter template. ## Minimalist editorial Near-monochrome with a single accent used sparingly. Hierarchy carried almost entirely by type size and generous whitespace. Flat surfaces — no shadows, no gradients; separation by space and hairline rules. Wide margins. Motion is almost absent: fades, no movement. …

How to install
mdr add cbrock84/headcount/design-styles@sha256:a8e8854a8dc39d0dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260901.aa45383, 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.
