What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Amplify personality — raises layout variance and motion, strengthens typography and one signature detail, without slop. Use when the UI works but feels safe, flat, or "template-y", or when the user says "bolder", "more personality", "more creative", or "make it pop" (still professional). Invoke when the user asks for bolder on their UI, or mentions 'bolder' alongside design / UI / frontend work.

Context: this sub-skill is one lens of the broader ui-craft skill. If the ui-craft skill is also installed, read its SKILL.md first for Discovery + Anti-Slop + Craft Test, then apply the specific lens below.
Make the UI at $ARGUMENTS bolder. Load the ui-craft skill and read references/craft-intent.md.
This is amplitude, not decoration. Increase editorial confidence while staying anti-slop clean.
Apply in order (edit code directly):
- Declare an updated Craft Read — one line: what changed (variance, motion, signature).
- Raise DESIGN_VARIANCE by +1–2 (cap 10). Product surfaces: asymmetric offset, stronger metric hierarchy, or display moment in shell. Marketing: stronger hero composition, section rhythm break, or typographic scale — per
references/craft-intent.mdvariance table. - Raise MOTION_INTENSITY by +1 (cap 10) if below 8 — add one purposeful entrance or hover choreography on the focal element only. Honor
prefers-reduced-motion. - Typography — increase display weight or size one step; tighten tracking on headlines; ensure numbers stay
tabular-nums. - Accent — strengthen focal accent placement (within 3–5 viewport budget); tint primary card or CTA — never add a second accent hue.
- Signature — add or strengthen the one signature bet if missing or weak (see craft-intent §3).
Never add: purple-cyan gradients, bounce easing, glassmorphism stacks, emoji, ALL CAPS headings, three equal icon-card grids, confetti.
Knob gating: if already at variance ≥9 or MOTION ≥9, strengthen signature and typography instead of pushing further.
Output: edit code. Print Review Format table. End with the updated Craft Read line.
Next step: /critique — confirm the added personality did not cost hierarchy or become slop (rung 1).
