What it does

Mobile Principles is an agent skill from AThevon/genjutsu. Mobile-specific UX principles - touch targets, hover-less doctrine, thumb zones, safe areas, gestures, mobile perf budgets. Cross-platform (web mobile, iOS, Android).

Its SKILL.md is about 2.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/accessibility-mobile.md` and `references/gestures-deep.md`).

It sits in Mobile, covering Mobile UI design. It works with iOS and Android. The repository describes itself as: Creative coding skills for Claude Code, claude.ai and Cowork. Motion, micro-interactions and design systems across Web (GSAP, Motion, Three.js, CSS), Android (Jetpack Compose)…

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Mobile UI design

Example prompts

  • “/mobile-principles”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Hover as the only reveal
  2. Sub-minimum touch targets
  3. Ignoring safe area insets

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1f518a7. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are swift, kotlin, css and html).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • w3.org
    • uxmatters.com
    • developer.apple.com
    • m3.material.io

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Mobile Principles loads about 2.8k tokens when it runs, and up to ~6.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 836 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.8k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~6.5k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 836 words (~2,824 tokens).

“Rule of thumb: any tap target smaller than the platform minimum is a usability bug, period. The hit area can extend beyond the visible glyph (use padding, hitSlop, or a transparent inner spacer), but the interactive surface must reach the…”
