This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.
Use when asked to redesign, polish, modernize, or improve the visual quality of a website or app UI, especially colors, buttons, spacing, shapes, typography, forms, dashboards, navigation, landing pages, or requests like "make it feel premium", "top-tier", or "less basic". Start with a short visual audit, define a reusable visual system, and implement consistent tokens, component variants, and responsive polish without changing product behavior.Key capabilities
- →Inspect the current styling stack and shared UI primitives.
- →Identify the 3-5 biggest visual problems.
- →Define or refine a small visual system before styling the page.
- →Apply the system consistently across the page and shared components.
- →Verify desktop, mobile, and UI states.
How it works
This skill conducts a visual audit, defines a small visual system with tokens and states, and then applies it consistently across the UI to improve visual quality.
Inputs & outputs
When to use visual-design-system
- →Polish UI components
- →Define color and spacing tokens
- →Modernize landing page styling
About visual-design-system
This skill performs visual audits and defines lightweight design systems (tokens, spacing, colors) to polish UI components. It ensures consistent styling across all states without changing backend behavior.

When not to use it
- →When the user asks for product changes that alter behavior or data flow.
Limitations
- →The skill preserves behavior, data flow, and page purpose.
- →The skill prefers reusable variables, tokens, theme values, or shared component styles.
- →The skill extends an existing design system if one is present.
How it compares
This skill focuses on defining and applying a lightweight visual system to polish UI components, ensuring consistency across states without altering product behavior, unlike a full product redesign.
