The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

2 rules. 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 15 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 0

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 2

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    Start with directory-fleet-ui — /design, presets, brand/.

    line 17
  2. Very specific:

    Before changing brand/ or kit components, declare:

    line 28

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 15 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.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

design-taste (fleet overlay)

Upstream: madebymustafa/design-taste — 24 skills. Install once:

git clone https://github.com/madebymustafa/design-taste.git /tmp/design-taste
/tmp/design-taste/scripts/install.sh   # copies into ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.claude/skills, etc.

Directory fleet (multi-site directory monorepo)

  1. Start with directory-fleet-ui — /design, presets, brand/.
  2. Genre for reference directories (MRI, permits, gov data): upstream skill corporate-trust — maps to civic preset + steel blue seed. Not indigo gradients, not three feature cards.
  3. Craft skills to load for every directory UI pass:
    • taste-design-system — spacing/type tokens (use brand/theme.ts + THEME_VARIANTS, no hardcoded px in pages)
    • taste-typography — Public Sans / Atkinson on civic; respect fluid steps in globals.css
    • taste-accessibility — 44px targets (buttons in @directory/ui/directory/button.tsx)
    • taste-ux-copy — factual hero intros; no "seamless", "revolutionary"
  4. Never list on directory home pages: centered purple hero, emoji icons, glass everywhere, Inter+slate default.

One-line design read (required)

Before changing brand/ or kit components, declare:

"Reading private-repo-38ca as: trust-first reference desk, civic band hero, ledger rows, one steel-blue accent, evidence next to every price."

Pre-flight (directory)

  • Preview http://localhost:3000/design?preset=<id>&matrix=1
  • bun run brand:check
  • Buttons/search use shared buttonClass; no one-off padding in apps/web pages
  • OG/logo/favicon share seed color (verify-branding)
