What it does

After the agent produces a design or other visual artifact, this skill makes it check the work against five areas: layout and craft, whether it solves the stated problem, brand consistency, accessibility (contrast, labels, keyboard use, heading order), and clear copy. It then fixes the problems it finds, repeating for a limited number of passes, and explains in plain prose what it checked, what it changed, and what it left alone. It does not produce a formal score sheet or review file.

Great for

  • Designers who want a second pass on a generated layout before sharing it
  • Developers building UI who want accessibility and brand checks applied automatically
  • Marketers reviewing landing page or campaign copy and visuals for clarity and filler

Skip it if

  • Projects with no visual or text artifact to review, since the checks are built around design output
  • Situations needing an independent human or formal audit, since the agent reviews its own work and may miss issues
  • Accessibility compliance sign-off, because the skill asks the agent to check contrast and labels by judgment and does not run automated accessibility tools

Try asking

  • “Review the landing page you just generated for layout, brand, accessibility and copy, and fix what falls short.”
  • “Critique this onboarding screen before you hand it over and tell me what you changed.”
  • “Check the dashboard mockup for contrast, touch target sizes and missing labels, then fix them.”

  3. 3

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Name the problem you want solved in your request so the critique dimension has a clear target.
  • Provide your design system or brand tokens so the brand check has something concrete to compare against.
  • Treat the result as a quality pass, not a guarantee; run a real accessibility checker for compliance needs.
