What it does
Taste Design is an agent skill from jaytel0/taste. Concrete UI visual rule set for generating and reviewing restrained neutral interfaces. Use for tasks that need exact style constraints: plain sans-serif typography, pale neutral canvases, rounded surfaces, soft shadows, minimal borders, low-saturation color, sparse density, content-neutral placeholders, and anti-collapse guardrails.
Its SKILL.md is about 7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Typography. The repository describes itself as: Taste skill creation pipeline.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that need exact style constraints: plain sans-serif typography
- Pale neutral canvases
- Rounded surfaces
- Minimal borders
Example prompts
- “/taste-design”
Workflow steps
12 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Use a pale neutral base canvas: near-white, off-white, or very pale gray.
- Place white or near-white rounded surfaces on that base with slight tonal separation.
- Use one primary focal mass per screen
- Keep the module count low. Do not fill the canvas with many equal cards.
- Keep most UI chrome grayscale: white, off-white, pale gray, mid gray, charcoal, and black.
- Use one saturated accent hue maximum per screen.
- Keep saturated accent area small by default: dots, rings, chips, thin linework, a short text line, or one contained control.
- Keep 80–95% of the visible interface neutral in tone.
- Use broad, low-opacity shadows with large blur and minimal offset.
- Avoid heavy outlines. Use hairline strokes only when spacing, tone, or shadow cannot define structure.
- Use large corner radii on cards, panels, image crops, large controls, and major containers.
- Use fully rounded pills for chips, filters, search fields, bottom docks, active markers, and compact controls.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c16426d. 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
Taste Design loads about 7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 4,173 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 4,173 words (~6,954 tokens).
“Use this skill when generating platform-agnostic UI screens, interface fragments, cards, panels, mobile-scale layouts, desktop-scale layouts, component systems, or presentation mockups that must rely on concrete visual structure instead of domain clichés.”
