# Frontend Design
## When to Load
Load this skill when the task involves building, redesigning, or significantly styling a frontend component, page, or application. Triggers include: user requests for UI/UX implementation, wireframe-to-code work, visual redesigns, and new web interfaces.
## Design Thinking Checklist
Before writing code, answer these:
1. **Purpose** — What problem does this interface solve? Who is the audience?
2. **Brand / product context** — Does the project have existing design tokens, a style guide, or brand constraints? Follow them first; extend only where gaps exist.
3. **Aesthetic direction** — Commit to a clear direction (e.g., brutally minimal, maximalist, retro-futuristic, editorial, organic, luxury, playful, industrial). Intentionality matters more than intensity.
4. **Differentiation** — Identify the single most memorable element of the design.
5. **Constraints** — Note framework requirements, performance budgets, and accessibility targets (WCAG AA minimum).
## Implementation Checklist
- [ ] Produce production-grade, functional code (HTML/CSS/JS, React, Vue, etc.)
- [ ] Ensure the result is visually cohesive with a clear aesthetic point of view
- [ ] Respect accessibility: semantic HTML, sufficient contrast, keyboard navigation, focus management
- [ ] Respect performance: avoid heavy unoptimized assets; prefer CSS-only solutions for animation where practical
- [ ] Use CSS variables for color/theme consistency
- [ ] Match implementation complexity to the aesthetic vision — maximalist designs need elaborate effects; minimal designs need precision and restraint
## Aesthetic Guidance
- **Typography** — Choose distinctive, characterful fonts. Pair a display font with a refined body font. Avoid defaulting to the same choices across projects; vary intentionally.
- **Color & Theme** — Dominant colors with sharp accents outperform timid, evenly-distributed palettes. Vary between light and dark themes across projects.
- **Motion** — Prioritize high-impact moments: a well-orchestrated page load with staggered reveals creates more delight than scattered micro-interactions. Use CSS animations where possible; use a motion library (e.g., Motion) for complex sequences. Include scroll-triggered and hover effects when they serve the design.
- **Spatial Composition** — Explore asymmetry, overlap, diagonal flow, grid-breaking elements, generous negative space, or controlled density.
- **Backgrounds & Atmosphere** — Build depth with gradient meshes, noise textures, geometric patterns, layered transparencies, shadows, grain overlays, or other contextual effects rather than defaulting to flat solid colors.
Avoid converging on the same fonts, color schemes, or layout patterns across generations. Each design should feel context-specific and intentional.
## TDD & Verification
Frontend code changes follow the project's TDD default policy. When the skill is loaded alongside `test-driven-development`:
- Write or update component/visual tests before implementation when a test harness exists.
- If no frontend test harness is available, state the exception and describe alternative verification (e.g., manual browser check, screenshot comparison).
- Satisfy `verification-before-completion` requirements before claiming the work is done.

description: Use when starting any conversation - establishes how to find and use skills, requiring Skill tool invocation before ANY response including clarifying questions

<SUBAGENT-STOP>
If you were dispatched as a subagent to execute a specific task, skip this skill.
</SUBAGENT-STOP>
<EXTREMELY-IMPORTANT>
If you think there is even a 1% chance a skill might apply to what you are doing, you ABSOLUTELY MUST invoke the skill.
IF A SKILL APPLIES TO YOUR TASK, YOU DO NOT HAVE A CHOICE. YOU MUST USE IT.
This is not negotiable. This is not optional. You cannot rationalize your way out of this.
</EXTREMELY-IMPORTANT>
## Instruction Priority
Superpowers skills override default system prompt behavior, but **user instructions always take precedence**:
1. **User's explicit instructions** (CLAUDE.md, GEMINI.md, AGENTS.md, direct requests) — highest priority
2. **Superpowers skills** — override default system behavior where they conflict
3. **Default system prompt** — lowest priority
If CLAUDE.md, GEMINI.md, or AGENTS.md says "don't use TDD" and a skill says "always use TDD," follow the user's instructions. The user is in control.
## How to Access Skills
**In Claude Code:** Use the `Skill` tool. When you invoke a skill, its content is loaded and presented to you—follow it directly. Never use the Read tool on skill files.
**In Gemini CLI:** Skills activate via the `activate_skill` tool. Gemini loads skill metadata at session start and activates the full content on demand.
**In other environments:** Check your platform's documentation for how skills are loaded.
## Platform Adaptation
Skills use Claude Code tool names. Non-CC platforms: see `references/codex-tools.md` (Codex) for tool equivalents. Gemini CLI users get the tool mapping loaded automatically via GEMINI.md.
# Using Skills
## The Rule
**Invoke relevant or requested skills BEFORE any response or action.** Even a 1% chance a skill might apply means that you should invoke the skill to check. If an invoked skill turns out to be wrong for the situation, you don't need to use it.
```dot
digraph skill_flow {
"User message received" [shape=doublecircle];
"About to EnterPlanMode?" [shape=doublecircle];
"Already brainstormed?" [shape=diamond];
"Invoke brainstorming skill" [shape=box];
"Might any skill apply?" [shape=diamond];
"Invoke Skill tool" [shape=box];
"Announce: 'Using [skill] to [purpose]'" [shape=box];
"Has checklist?" [shape=diamond];
"Create TodoWrite todo per item" [shape=box];
"Follow skill exactly" [shape=box];
"Respond (including clarifications)" [shape=doublecircle];
"About to EnterPlanMode?" -> "Already brainstormed?";
"Already brainstormed?" -> "Invoke brainstorming skill" [label="no"];
"Already brainstormed?" -> "Might any skill apply?" [label="yes"];
"Invoke brainstorming skill" -> "Might any skill apply?";
"User message received" -> "Might any skill apply?";
"Might any skill apply?" -> "Invoke Skill tool" [label="yes, even 1%"];
"Might any skill apply?" -> "Respond (including clarifications)" [label="definitely not"];
"Invoke Skill tool" -> "Announce: 'Using [skill] to [purpose]'";
"Announce: 'Using [skill] to [purpose]'" -> "Has checklist?";
"Has checklist?" -> "Create TodoWrite todo per item" [label="yes"];
"Has checklist?" -> "Follow skill exactly" [label="no"];
"Create TodoWrite todo per item" -> "Follow skill exactly";
}
```
## Red Flags
These thoughts mean STOP—you're rationalizing:
| Thought | Reality |
|---------|---------|
| "This is just a simple question" | Questions are tasks. Check for skills. |
| "I need more context first" | Skill check comes BEFORE clarifying questions. |
| "Let me explore the codebase first" | Skills tell you HOW to explore. Check first. |
| "I can check git/files quickly" | Files lack conversation context. Check for skills. |
| "Let me gather information first" | Skills tell you HOW to gather information. |
| "This doesn't need a formal skill" | If a skill exists, use it. |
| "I remember this skill" | Skills evolve. Read current version. |
| "This doesn't count as a task" | Action = task. Check for skills. |
| "The skill is overkill" | Simple things become complex. Use it. |
| "I'll just do this one thing first" | Check BEFORE doing anything. |
| "This feels productive" | Undisciplined action wastes time. Skills prevent this. |
| "I know what that means" | Knowing the concept ≠ using the skill. Invoke it. |
## Skill Priority
When multiple skills could apply, use this order:
1. **Process skills first** (brainstorming, debugging) - these determine HOW to approach the task
2. **Implementation skills second** (frontend-design, mcp-builder) - these guide execution
"Let's build X" → brainstorming first, then implementation skills.
"Fix this bug" → debugging first, then domain-specific skills.
## Skill Types
**Rigid** (TDD, debugging): Follow exactly. Don't adapt away discipline.
**Flexible** (patterns): Adapt principles to context.
The skill itself tells you which.
## User Instructions
Instructions say WHAT, not HOW. "Add X" or "Fix Y" doesn't mean skip workflows.

# Codex Tool Mapping
Skills use Claude Code tool names. When you encounter these in a skill, use your platform equivalent:
| Skill references | Codex equivalent |
|-----------------|------------------|
| `Task` tool (dispatch subagent) | `spawn_agent` |
| Multiple `Task` calls (parallel) | Multiple `spawn_agent` calls |
| Task returns result | `wait` |
| Task completes automatically | `close_agent` to free slot |
| `TodoWrite` (task tracking) | `update_plan` |
| `Skill` tool (invoke a skill) | Skills load natively — just follow the instructions |
| `Read`, `Write`, `Edit` (files) | Use your native file tools |
| `Bash` (run commands) | Use your native shell tools |
## Subagent dispatch requires collab
Add to your Codex config (`~/.codex/config.toml`):
```toml
[features]
collab = true
```
This enables `spawn_agent`, `wait`, and `close_agent` for skills like `dispatching-parallel-agents` and `subagent-driven-development`.

# Gemini CLI Tool Mapping
Skills use Claude Code tool names. When you encounter these in a skill, use your platform equivalent:
| Skill references | Gemini CLI equivalent |
|-----------------|----------------------|
| `Read` (file reading) | `read_file` |
| `Write` (file creation) | `write_file` |
| `Edit` (file editing) | `replace` |
| `Bash` (run commands) | `run_shell_command` |
| `Grep` (search file content) | `grep_search` |
| `Glob` (search files by name) | `glob` |
| `TodoWrite` (task tracking) | `write_todos` |
| `Skill` tool (invoke a skill) | `activate_skill` |
| `WebSearch` | `google_web_search` |
| `WebFetch` | `web_fetch` |
| `Task` tool (dispatch subagent) | No equivalent — Gemini CLI does not support subagents |
## No subagent support
Gemini CLI has no equivalent to Claude Code's `Task` tool. Skills that rely on subagent dispatch (`subagent-driven-development`, `dispatching-parallel-agents`) will fall back to single-session execution via `executing-plans`.
## Additional Gemini CLI tools
These tools are available in Gemini CLI but have no Claude Code equivalent:
| Tool | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `list_directory` | List files and subdirectories |
| `save_memory` | Persist facts to GEMINI.md across sessions |
| `ask_user` | Request structured input from the user |
| `tracker_create_task` | Rich task management (create, update, list, visualize) |
| `enter_plan_mode` / `exit_plan_mode` | Switch to read-only research mode before making changes |
