What it does

When installed, the agent follows a specific visual style guide when designing or building user interfaces. It produces light, warm off-white 'paper' surfaces set inside a darker outer frame, with subtle diagonal textures, thin borders, corner brackets, and one restrained accent color. The skill also tells the agent how to keep motion calm and how to pick typography, so its output looks more deliberate and less like a generic white dashboard.

Great for

  • Designers or front-end developers who want a warm, tactile, technical look for a web app or landing page
  • Teams building product mockups, transcript panes, or dashboards that should feel premium but not cold
  • People who want a consistent design direction handed to an AI agent

Skip it if

  • Projects that need a standard brand style or an existing design system, since this skill will push its own look and may conflict with it
  • Anyone expecting it to handle accessibility or contrast checks automatically; the guidance is aesthetic and does not test readability

Try asking

  • “Design a light-mode dashboard with warm paper surfaces and a dark outer frame”
  • “Build a landing page hero with bracketed geometry and subtle diagonal texture”
  • “Create an app mockup with a transcript panel and sidebar in this paper-technical style”

    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 accent color you want, since the skill asks for only one restrained accent
  • Ask for a warmer or cooler paper tone if the default feels off for your brand
  • Check the output's text contrast yourself, because the skill does not verify it
