Interface Design

Consolidated capability for designing, reviewing, and transforming digital user interfaces across web, iOS/macOS, mobile, and desktop applications.

When to Activate

  • Designing UI components, layouts, screens, user flows, and forms.
  • Reviewing interfaces for Apple Human Interface Guidelines (HIG) compliance and accessibility.
  • Unslopping AI-generated interfaces to eliminate purple glows, generic cards, and vibecoded cliches.
  • Enforcing Swiss grid typography, editorial density, and high-contrast typographic scales.
  • Calibrating interactive motion dials (GSAP ScrollTrigger timelines, restrained transitions <300ms).

When NOT to Activate

  • Implementing production frontend React/Next.js code (use frontend-engineering).
  • Authoring design tokens, color palette palettes, or raw SVG vectors (use design-systems).
  • Writing backend services or REST API routes (use backend-engineering).

Core Execution Workflow

  1. Design Hierarchy & Direction:
    • Establish one bright focal element per view; keep chrome quiet and subordinate.
    • Enforce Swiss typographic discipline: geometric fonts, clear scale ratios, WCAG AAA contrast.
    • Consult references/ui-ux-guidelines.md.
  2. The 9-Pass Redline Craft Transformation (Unslopping):
    • Apply the 9-pass audit: Purpose, Spacing, Color hierarchy, Iconography, Copywriting, Typography, Layout composition, Visual craft, and Motion restraint.
    • Consult references/anti-slop-redline-craft.md.
  3. Platform Standards & HIG Review:
    • Ground iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and cross-platform designs in Apple HIG component specifications.
    • Consult references/apple-human-interface-guidelines.md.
  4. Motion & Aesthetic Calibration:
    • Tune the three creative dials: VARIANCE, MOTION, and DENSITY.
    • Restrain interface animations to <300ms standard easing. Ban generic floating cards and ambient glows.
    • Consult references/taste-motion-calibration.md and references/anti-vcode-scorecard.md.

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

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.
