What it does
When installed, the agent follows a specific visual style guide when building web pages or interfaces. Instead of generic dark mode or soft floating cards, it uses near-black backgrounds, visible thin frame lines, gradient-edged panels, small corner markers, uppercase monospace labels, and mostly grayscale colors. The skill's text describes the look in detail; the included demo HTML and prompt file show an example of the result.
Great for
- Designers or developers who want a premium, technical dark-mode look for a landing page or dashboard
- Teams prototyping an instrument-style or engineered interface aesthetic
- People who want consistent visual rules applied across a whole page
Skip it if
- Projects needing a colorful, playful or consumer-app style, since the skill explicitly avoids it
- Accessibility-critical products without a separate contrast check, since low-contrast borders and subtle backgrounds can reduce readability
Try asking
- “Build a landing page for my developer tool in the framed dark technical style”
- “Redesign this dashboard with border-gradient panels and mono section labels”
- “Create a settings page with active side-bar nav rows and muted locked items”
