Avoid the default visual choices that make a web UI look AI-generated, and make intentional ones instead. Use this WHENEVER you build or style a web page, component, landing page, or app screen with CSS or a UI framework. The purple-to-blue diagonal gradient, glassmorphism cards everywhere, a centered hero with an emoji and two gradient buttons, neon glow on dark, and default system-font-only type are the look that signals "a model designed this". Replace each default with a deliberate choice about type, color, spacing, and layout that fits the actual product.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
5 rules. About 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈4
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
The licence could not be identified — read it at the source. We count its rules but don't quote them. Read them on GitHub.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
