elevate
Skill1 starsChanged 3 months agoMITView on GitHub
Elevate an existing landing page toward Awwwards level — read the project, gap-analysis against the anatomy checklist, prioritized plan gate, apply approved items, mandatory verify. Use when the user wants an existing page improved ("/award-craft:elevate [path]"). Not for building from scratch (use craft).

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
2 rules. 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 4 edited versions we read keep these.
1
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 46
Never silently change slugs, nav labels, form field names, or legal copy.
- Distinctive: line 51
If the approved items require new assets, the same credit ceiling rule applies — propose the ceiling with the elevation plan and stop …
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 4 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
Elevate — orchestrator
0. Preflight — identical to craft (see ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/craft/SKILL.md §0).
1. Read the project
Stack (confirm Next.js — if not, report that v0.1 only supports the fixed stack and stop); sections; existing animations (GSAP? Lenis? CSS?); existing DESIGN.md/PRODUCT.md or brand source (same resolution as craft §1). Detect the mode: Preserve (modernize without breaking identity) or Overhaul (new visuals, preserve content). State it in the gap-analysis.
2. Gap-analysis
Score the current page against the Awwwards anatomy checklist
(${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/direction/references/awwwards-rubric.md) + run
impeccable's audit + its detector once over the target:
node <impeccable-base>/scripts/detect.mjs --json <target> (base dir resolved
in preflight). Consume its findings instead of re-deriving them; anything it
already reports is a fix item, not a new observation.
Output: what it has / what is missing / what is wrong (with file:line refs).
Also score the copy: hero tests, arc coherence, banned language, micro-copy
(see ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/direction/references/copywriting.md).
Copy rewrites are a modernization lever — place them with typography (highest
lift, lowest risk).
3. Elevation plan → GATE
Prioritized items (impact vs effort), each: what changes, which recipe
applies, expected checklist deltas. ═══ STOP: human picks items ═══
Overhaul mode only: offer the comp round with the plan — three rendered
compositions of the new first viewport (~3 credits, priced with get_cost),
so the human approves a composition instead of a description. Follow
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/direction/references/comps.md; elevate never
invokes direction, so run it here. Preserve mode does not comp: the incumbent
composition is the reference, and rendering alternatives invites a redesign
nobody asked for.
4. Apply approved items using ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/build-recipes (same rules).
Apply modernization levers in this order (highest lift / lowest risk first):
typography refresh + copy rewrites (headline/CTA/banned language — same tier:
highest lift, lowest risk) → spacing & rhythm → color recalibration → motion
layer → hero and key-section recomposition → full block replacement (last resort).
Never silently change slugs, nav labels, form field names, or legal copy.
Token changes land in DESIGN.md's YAML frontmatter (normative) and, when they
touch motion/shadows/breakpoints, in .impeccable/design.json — see the
"On approval" section of ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/direction/SKILL.md. Never
silently overwrite a DESIGN.md written by impeccable.
If the approved items require new assets, the same credit ceiling rule
applies — propose the ceiling with the elevation plan and stop before
exceeding it. If any of them is a VIDEO asset, price the tier menu with
get_cost and present it with the elevation plan exactly as Pass-1 item 9 of
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/direction/SKILL.md prescribes; elevate never
invokes direction, so the menu has to be run here or the tier gets picked by
an agent instead of the human.
(Lever order distilled from taste-skill, MIT.)
5. Verify — invoke skill verify. Mandatory.
6. Report: antes/después — checklist score before vs after, screenshots
side by side, remaining gaps for a future pass.

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.
