What it does

When installed, the agent follows a specific visual style guide when building a web interface: a near-black background with faint grid and crosshair lines, frosted dark glass navigation bars and buttons, and a large circular dial with rings, tick marks and rotating labels as the main focal point. It is meant to look like a precise, scientific instrument rather than generic glassmorphism. The skill is written as design guidance; it does not add tools or automation of its own.

Great for

  • Designers or front-end developers who want a dark, premium, technical-looking landing page or dashboard
  • Teams exploring a monochrome 'instrument panel' visual direction for a product site
  • Anyone who wants an agent to produce consistent styling from a written design brief

Skip it if

  • Projects needing bright, colourful, or brand-heavy visuals, since the style explicitly limits accents to monochrome (the aesthetic would clash)
  • Accessibility-critical interfaces, because translucent glass and low-contrast grid lines can reduce readability and the skill only asks for 'strong readability' without specific contrast checks

Try asking

  • “Build a landing page for a hardware product in the dark glass clock style with a dial as the hero element”
  • “Redesign my dashboard navigation using frosted dark glass pills and a thin bottom border”
  • “Create a split-layout hero with sparse copy beside a rotating calibration dial”

  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 page or product you are building so the agent can apply the layout guidance to real content
  • Ask for a restrained dial (fewer rings and labels) if the result looks noisy, since the skill itself warns against overloading the dial
  • Review the demo folder (index.html and PROMPT.md) to see an example output before relying on the style
