What it does
Better Layout is an agent skill from Lily-404/blog. Layout structure for web interfaces. Use when structuring a page or component, deciding what collapses at small sizes, or reviewing frontend code for layout. Triggers on layout, spacing, alignment, grouping, whitespace, visual hierarchy, reading order, progressive disclosure, breakpoints, container queries, safe area, full-bleed, layout margins, RTL layout, logical properties.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `grouping-and-alignment.md` and `spacing-and-adaptivity.md`).
It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Frontend development and Responsive design.
When your agent uses it
- Structuring a page
- Deciding what collapses at small sizes
- Reviewing frontend code for layout
- Visual hierarchy
Example prompts
- “/better-layout”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cce7f29. 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
Better Layout loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 98 tokens; SKILL.md has 780 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 780 words (~1,477 tokens).
“Position, spacing and alignment carry hierarchy before a word is read. This skill builds that structure and stress-tests it: resize it, translate it, mirror it for RTL.”
