Use when users ask to design, redesign, or improve the interface for a product, app, site, screen, flow, or dashboard and the main goal is a beautiful, intentional UI before implementation.

Beautiful UI
Overview
Use this skill when the primary job is UI design quality. Do not jump straight into code. Inspect the product and repo, choose a visual direction, define a design-system core, design the key screens and states, adapt for the target platform, then verify the handoff.
Workflow
- Inspect the repo, product context, audience, and existing UI signals.
- Define the visual direction before implementation.
- Build the design-system core: color, type, spacing, surfaces, corners, borders, shadows, and motion.
- Design the key screens and the important states.
- Load the right platform adapter.
- Produce implementation-facing handoff.
- Run
ui-verificationbefore calling the design complete.
Output Contract
- Visual direction
- Design-system core
- Prioritized screen plan
- Screen-by-screen UI spec
- Component guidance
- State coverage
- Platform-specific handoff
- Verification checklist
Adapter Selection
- Use
platform-web-uifor responsive browser products. - Use
framework-shadcn-tailwind-uiwithplatform-web-uiwhen the repo uses shadcn/ui, Tailwind CSS,components.json, or localcomponents/uisource. - Use
cinematic-web-experiencewithplatform-web-uiwhen the user asks for a premium, demo-worthy, immersive, WebGL, Three.js, portfolio, product showcase, or wow-factor web experience. - Use
platform-ios-uifor iPhone or iPad-first native apps. - Use
platform-android-uifor Android-first native apps. - Use multiple adapters only when the product must span platforms.
- If platform is unclear after repo inspection, ask one short question.

Claude Upgrade Path
When the user is using Claude Code and wants a noticeably better UI result, route them through:

Guardrails
- Do not start with implementation.
- Do not produce generic card piles, arbitrary gradients, or default-font layouts.
- Do not design only the happy path.
- Do not force pixel parity across platforms.
- Do not invent components before checking the repo.
- Do not skip accessibility, localization pressure, reduced motion, focus behavior, or state coverage.
