What it does
macOS Design is an agent skill from ceorkm/macos-design-skill. Design and build native-feeling macOS application UIs. Use this skill whenever the user asks to create a desktop app, macOS app, Mac-style interface, Apple-style UI, system utility, or anything that should look and feel like a native Mac application. Also trigger when users mention "native feel", "desktop app design", "Apple design patterns", "sidebar layout", "traffic lights", or want to build tools/utilities that feel like they belong on macOS. This skill covers layout, composition, interaction patterns…
Its SKILL.md is about 780 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including reference files (for example `README.md`, `references/interaction-patterns.md` and `references/layout-and-composition.md`).
It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Theming and dark mode and Design patterns. It works with macOS. The repository describes itself as: Native macOS app design system - Build apps that feel like Apple designed them.
When your agent uses it
- The user asks to create a desktop app
- Mac-style interface
- Anything that should look and feel like a native Mac application
- Users mention native feel
Example prompts
- “native feel”
- “desktop app design”
- “Apple design patterns”
- “/macos-design”
Workflow steps
10 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Layout: Top bar for global actions, sidebar for navigation (skip if nav is minimal), center for content
- Traffic lights: Integrate into the UI — top bar or sidebar, never floating awkwardly
- Window drag zone: Top ~50px must be draggable, keep it uncluttered
- Empty states: Show them. Progressive disclosure — only reveal UI when it's useful
- Keyboard shortcuts: Every primary action needs one. Every shortcut needs visual feedback
- Light + Dark mode: Design both. Do NOT directly invert colors (see visual-design reference)
- Search: Always prominent and accessible. Consider floating search bar or command palette
- Drag and drop: Content in AND out of the app. This is non-negotiable for native feel
- Micro-animations: Every state change gets a transition. No interaction without feedback
- Onboarding: Brief, modal-based, teaches shortcuts through doing (not reading)
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8f528a2. 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.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
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
macOS Design loads about 779 tokens when it runs, and up to ~7.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 156 tokens; SKILL.md has 339 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 339 words (~779 tokens).
“Build interfaces that feel like they belong on the user's computer — not websites crammed into a window.”
