design-styles skillA
design-styles is agent-read markdown (skill) from cbrock84/headcount: 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..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns 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. …
