Provides guidelines for developing projected Android XR apps for display glasses using the Jetpack Compose Glimmer UI toolkit. This skill covers foundational Glimmer design principles, workflows for implementing Jetpack Compose Glimmer, and interaction models for the glasses form factor. Use this skill to build an Android XR Augmented Experience app with Jetpack Compose Glimmer that adheres to the Glimmer design system for optimized glasses styling.

Universal project workflow with built-in quality auditing. Quick mode (fast brainstorm, ~5 min) or Deep mode (full plan with audits, ~30 min). Auto-picks based on task size. Trigger: 'build', 'create', 'plan', 'new project', 'brainstorm', 'design', 'UI', 'website', 'dashboard', 'app', 'help me build', or any project-level task.

Use when writing or modifying the pythinker-code terminal UI in apps/pythinker-code/src/tui — components, dialogs/selectors, slash commands, themes, streaming render, or the PythinkerTUI controllers. Covers the architecture, where new features go, test placement, the theme system mechanics, and the dialog interaction/visual spec (DESIGN.md).

Evaluate and improve interface usability using heuristic analysis. Use when the user mentions "usability audit", "UX review", "users are confused", "heuristic evaluation", "form usability", "navigation problems", "Nielsen heuristics", "cognitive walkthrough", or "usability testing". Also trigger when reviewing a design for usability issues, improving form completion rates, or evaluating information architecture and navigation. Covers Nielsens 10 heuristics, severity ratings, and information architecture. For visual design fixes, see refactoring-ui. For conversion-focused audits, see cro-methodology.

The craft of designing icons that communicate instantly across cultures, contexts, and scales. Icon design bridges semiotics, cognitive psychology, and visual craft to create symbols that users understand without thinking. Great icons are invisible in the best way - they convey meaning so naturally that users never pause to decode them. This skill covers icon grid systems, optical alignment, stroke consistency, metaphor selection, scalability across sizes, SVG optimization, and icon set coherence. The best icon designers understand that icons are a visual language - each icon must speak the same dialect while carrying its own distinct meaning. Use when "icon, iconography, symbol, glyph, icon set, icon library, pictogram, svg icon, icon grid, icon pack, feather icons, lucide, phosphor, heroicons, icon system, icon style, icons, iconography, svg, symbols, glyphs, pictograms, ui-icons, icon-set, visual-design, design-system" mentioned.

Use for writing, reviewing, debugging, or testing Python terminal presentation built with Rich, including Console streams, Text and markup safety, tables, trees, panels, progress, status, Live displays, render protocols, and deterministic output capture. Do not use for CLI argument parsing, structured logging design, browser UI, or machine-readable protocol output that must remain plain.

Build throwaway code that answers exactly one design question — a tiny terminal app to feel out logic/state models, or several radically different UI variants switchable on one route. Use when the user wants to "prototype", "mock up", "sketch", "try a few versions", "see what it'd look like", "feel out this state machine", or is stuck choosing between designs they can only judge by seeing or driving them. Also used by the whiteboard skill for napkin-type tickets.

Mega-composite — full greenfield feature development from idea to live. Chains research-and-decide (validate the idea + capture decision) → scope-and-execute (analysis + plan + implement) → design-build (if UI involved) → fix-the-suite (if tests need work) → merge-confidently → ship-it → knowledge-loop. The single command for "build feature X end-to-end."

Use when designing a near-black premium UI with subtle ordered-dither texture and a thin accent-colored laser atmosphere. Prefer this over mengto-dither-background when dither pairs with laser accents; prefer over mengto-blue-laser-clean-glass-layout when ordered dither texture is the surface cue, not frosted glass dashboards.

Apple's approach to interface design and fluid, physical motion, translated for the web. Use when building or reviewing gesture-driven UI, spring animations, drag/swipe/sheet interactions, momentum and interruptible transitions, translucent materials and depth, typography (optical sizing, tracking, leading), reduced-motion, or the design foundations (feedback, spatial consistency, restraint) behind Apple-style interfaces. Also applies to any HTML-rendered output with interactive elements — investor decks, annual reports, product pages, slide presentations (Reveal.js, Guizang PPT), interactive documents, and landing pages that need premium feel beyond static aesthetics. Not for static Word/PDF generation (typography rules only).

Run a reproduce → isolate → verify debugging workflow for concrete bugs, regressions, flaky failures, and environment-specific behavior. Use when the user already has a failing command, test, request, UI flow, or narrowed symptom and needs root-cause diagnosis or fix verification rather than raw log-line selection, broad test-policy design, PR review, or generic performance tuning.

Build responsive, mobile-first layouts using fluid containers, flexible units, media queries, and touch-friendly design that works across all screen sizes. Use this skill when creating or modifying UI layouts, responsive grids, breakpoint styles, mobile navigation, or any interface that needs to adapt to different screen sizes. Apply when working with responsive CSS, media queries, viewport settings, flexbox/grid layouts, mobile-first styling, breakpoint definitions (mobile, tablet, desktop), touch target sizing, relative units (rem, em, %), image optimization for different screens, or testing layouts across multiple devices. Use for any task involving multi-device support, responsive design patterns, or adaptive layouts.

Brand-first landing page designer — interviews the user to discover brand identity (adjectives, colors, typography, shape language), then generates and iterates on a polished landing page via Stitch with deployment-ready HTML output. Preferred over frontend-design for standalone landing/marketing pages where the user hasn't established visual direction yet. TRIGGER when: user asks to "create/design/build a landing page", "make a homepage for my project/product/service", "build a marketing page", or wants to promote an app/side project. Especially when they haven't defined brand colors, fonts, or visual style — the guided brand interview is the core value. DO NOT TRIGGER when: user has a specific design mockup to implement, wants a dashboard or app UI, needs component-level frontend work (buttons, forms, navbars), is building a multi-page application, or is restyling an existing page with known design tokens. Use frontend-design for those cases.

Drive Airship (`@airshiplabs/cli`), a CLI that puts a visual, pannable design canvas in front of a running dev server so an engineer can click an element, describe a change, and have Claude Code, Codex, or OpenCode edit the underlying source file directly — no plugin, no build config, nothing added to the project. Use when the user wants to launch a visual editor over a local dev server (`npx @airshiplabs/cli --target <port>`), pick or compare coding agents (`--agent claude|codex|opencode`) for live UI edits, sandbox agent edits with `--safe`, scaffold an `airship.config.json` (`airship init`), or diagnose a broken setup (`airship doctor`). Triggers on: "airship", "@airshiplabs/cli", "visual editor for my codebase", "click to edit UI", "design canvas over dev server", "airship doctor", "airship init", "pair Claude Code with a visual editor on localhost".

Design motion, transitions, and bespoke graphics for native Rust gpui apps — the framework behind Zed and the pd-console operator console. Use for with_animation, easing curves, BoxShadow/glow, breathing dots, pane expand/zoom/slide transitions, and custom paint/Vello/wgpu surfaces. Trigger on: gpui animation, with_animation, gpui transition, gpui easing, BoxShadow, gpui shadow, pd-console motion, gpui paint/canvas, Vello, wgpu, "lift/slide/zoom/spring in gpui", reduced-motion in a native Rust UI, "animation re-renders forever", repeat() never stops. NOT for: web/React motion (→ animation-system-architect), CLI/TUI output (→ beautiful-cli-design), general non-motion GUI layout/color/typography (→ beautiful-gui-design).

Generates a bespoke brand identity for a new project through a short interview, then writes it as a DESIGN.md file (Google Stitch format) in that project's own repo. Use when starting a new project and its visual identity isn't defined yet, when asked "what's the brand for X", "define the brand for this project", "new project design system", or before the first UI work on a fresh project. Do NOT use this to restyle or elevate a project that already has an identity — that's `taste-redesign`.

Use when the user asks to audit, review, critique, or "make sure it looks right" on a deployed web page, component, or Figma mockup — or when they mention visual issues, CRO, conversion rate, design consistency, accessibility, "feels off", "looks bad", "make it pop", "looks like AI slop". Triggers on keywords like "audit the page", "review the design", "what's wrong with this UI", "CRO audit", "a11y check", "visual hierarchy", "typography check", "does this look right". Activation also recommended after any significant frontend change on gotcontext.ai before calling the work done.

Composite skill — full SEO + Accessibility audit of a website or webapp in one workflow. Chains audit-website (squirrelscan SEO + tech + perf scan) + seo-audit (SEO framing) + playwright-best-practices (axe-core a11y) + ui-audit (design-system accessibility patterns) → reconciled severity-ranked report split by SEO vs A11y vs Both. Use for periodic site health checks, pre-launch audits, or when search rankings drop.

Maintains a product repo's canonical docs structure (CLAUDE.md, progress.txt, docs/product+system+design-system, context/) as single source of truth, and keeps the log.md session history separate from the progress.txt state snapshot. Trigger after feature completion, before git push, on architecture changes, at session end, or explicit "update docs"/"sync documentation" requests. Skip for trivial changes (<10 LOC, no logic/schema/UI changes).

Build industrial-grade SCADA/HMI dashboards in MATLAB following industrial-HMI conventions (ISA-101-aligned): gray-field philosophy, alarms at source, write safeguards, fixed-range trends, drill-down layout. Produces a real App Designer app (.mlapp, or plain-text .m+.xml on R2026b+) by handing serialization to the matlab-build-app skill when available, and falls back to a programmatic .m app otherwise. Use when wrapping OPC UA / Modbus / MQTT / OSI PI / PI AF monitoring scripts into a live operator app, building plant overviews, designing operator dashboards, or any time a user asks for a "SCADA dashboard", "HMI", "plant dashboard", "operator screen", or "industrial monitoring app" in MATLAB. Trigger on: SCADA, HMI, industrial dashboard, plant overview, operator screen, uigauge, uilamp, alarm banner, gray-field, ISA-101, OPC UA dashboard, setpoint, write safeguards, alarm visualization, OSIsoft PI, AVEVA PI, PI Server, PI Data Archive, PI AF, PI Asset Framework, piclient, afclient.

A short, design-led motion graphic where motion is the message — kinetic typography, stat count-up, chart/data-viz hit, logo sting / brand lockup, lower-third / callout / social overlay, animated map (highlight regions, connect places, zoom to a location), animated tweet / news-article / headline, webpage / UI animation (scroll, cursor, callouts), or fusing a real image's geometry into a chart. Usually under 10s (up to ~30s), no narration or live-action subject; renders to MP4 or transparent overlay. Longer / narrated / multi-scene → /general-video. Unclear → /hyperframes.

Creates realistic ocean and water wave effects for web using SVG filters (feTurbulence, feDisplacementMap), CSS animations, and layering techniques. Use for ocean backgrounds, underwater distortion, beach scenes, ripple effects, liquid glass, and water-themed UI. Activate on "ocean wave", "water effect", "SVG water", "ripple animation", "underwater distortion", "liquid glass", "wave animation", "feTurbulence water", "beach waves", "sea foam". NOT for 3D ocean simulation (use WebGL/Three.js), video water effects (use video editing), physics-based fluid simulation (use canvas/WebGL), or simple gradient backgrounds without wave motion.

Stand up a self-hostable, typo-tolerant search environment with Typesense — the open-source Algolia / ElasticSearch alternative (single C++ binary, <50ms instant search, no runtime deps). One routing-first skill: pick a server mode (binary download, official Docker image, or managed Typesense Cloud), install an API client (Python/JS/PHP/Ruby official; Go/Dart/C# community), design a collection schema, index documents, and run searches with typo tolerance, faceting/filtering, geo-search, sorting, grouping, synonyms, curation, scoped API keys, and federated multi-search — then wire an InstantSearch.js UI and a Raft-based HA cluster for production. Use when the user wants to build or operate an installable search backend, add site/app/product search, or migrate off Algolia/Elasticsearch. Triggers on: typesense, search engine, typo-tolerant search, algolia alternative, elasticsearch alternative, instantsearch, faceted search, geo search, vector search, self-hosted search, site search, product search.
