redesign

Upgrade an existing website or app to premium quality without breaking functionality — audit the current design, identify generic/AI tells, then apply taste and system rules surgically.

How to use

  1. Copy the installation command and review the source package before installing it in your own agent environment.
  2. Check the source document for required tools, credentials and supported hosts.
  3. Describe your input and desired deliverable; review the output against the source material.

Before you start

  • Installation does not include a model subscription, API allowance or permission to access your files.
  • Repository stars and installation counts describe activity, not an independent quality or security test.

Skill: Redesign & Audit

Step 0 — is the kit here? This skill reads files from the kit. Check once: ls ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../tokens >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo KIT_OK || echo KIT_MISSING On KIT_MISSING only the skill folders were installed, which is what npx skills add does. Say so plainly, point the user at npx ux-ui-agent-skills init or the plugin install, and stop. Do not guess the contents of a file you could not open.

Audit-first redesign that preserves behavior.

Steps

  1. Read ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../workflows/redesign-audit.md (the full Scan → Diagnose → Direct → Apply → Verify sequence + Output Completeness).
  2. Scan the codebase: framework, styling method (→ route to the matching frameworks/ adapter), token reality, components, what must be preserved.
  3. Diagnose with the Banned Defaults checklist (${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../taste/design-taste.md) + the review rubric (design-review skill). Produce a prioritized findings table.
  4. Direct: choose an archetype/system (apply-aesthetic skill) that fits the brand.
  5. Apply in order — tokens first, then typography/spacing, then component states, then motion — without changing routes/data/markup semantics (except a11y fixes).
  6. Verify: re-run design-review + a11y-audit; smoke-test every previously working flow; dark mode + responsive spot-check. Run ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../scripts/validate_contrast.py on the token source and ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../scripts/lint_hardcodes.py over the changed code.

Guardrails

Never sacrifice a working feature for aesthetics. Never ship a brand color that fails contrast. Never remove existing accessibility affordances. Deliver complete files — no placeholders.

Single-theme consistency (critical for multi-page apps)

Consolidate to ONE shared token theme and make every page consume it — a redesign that leaves different pages on different palettes has failed. Replace per-page/ad-hoc colors with semantic tokens; verify with ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../scripts/lint_hardcodes.py that no page reintroduces off-theme values. Theme switches must come from the single token source, not page edits (.claude/rules/tokens-and-color.md → Single-Theme Consistency).

a11y-audit

Audit a UI or design against WCAG 2.2 AA/AAA and ARIA patterns, returning criterion-referenced findings with severity and specific fixes. Use when the user wants an accessibility check, contrast verification, keyboard/screen-reader review, or wants to confirm a component meets POUR.

apply-aesthetic

Apply a visual direction — an archetype (high-end agency, editorial minimal, brutalist, soft-SaaS, dark-tech) or one of 138 named design systems (apple, linear-app, stripe, vercel, notion, material, shadcn, spotify, tesla…) — by resolving it into the token system. Use when the user wants a specific look/vibe/brand feel, or asks to make a design feel premium/expensive/non-generic.

brandkit

Generate a complete, accessible brand design system from a brief — primitive → semantic → component DTCG tokens (color, type, spacing, radius, shadow, motion), light + dark, plus a single theme.css — verified for WCAG. Use when the user wants a from-scratch brand/design foundation, a new palette + type system, or a themeable token kit for a product.

critique

Adversarial design critique of the current work — render it, look at it, and argue for rejection. Run after the gates are green, never instead of them.
