What it does
Adaptive Interfaces is an agent skill from Owl-Listener/designpowers. Use when designing for user preferences — motion sensitivity, contrast needs, colour schemes, text sizing, information density, or any interface behaviour that should adapt to individual needs
Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k 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. The repository describes itself as: An agent design team you control: 10 agents that run an inclusive design process while you direct. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Designing for user preferences — motion sensitivity
- Information density
- Any interface behaviour that should adapt to individual needs
Example prompts
- “/adaptive-interfaces”
Workflow steps
7 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cb00757. 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 css).
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
Adaptive Interfaces loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 503 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.

Adaptive Interfaces
Good design does not force everyone through the same experience. It adapts. This skill ensures interfaces respect user preferences, system settings, and individual needs — not as optional extras, but as fundamental design requirements.
When to Use
- Designing themes (dark mode, high contrast, custom colour schemes)
- Implementing motion or animation
- Building flexible typography or layout systems
- Designing for varying information density needs
- Any time the interface could benefit from adapting to the user
Process
Step 1: Identify Adaptable Properties
Review the design and map what should adapt:
| Property | User Preference | CSS/System Signal |
|---|---|---|
| Colour scheme | Light/dark/custom | prefers-color-scheme |
| Contrast | Standard/high | prefers-contrast |
| Motion | Full/reduced/none | prefers-reduced-motion |
| Text size | System font size settings | rem/em units, viewport scaling |
| Information density | Compact/comfortable/spacious | User setting or breakpoint |
| Transparency | Standard/reduced | prefers-reduced-transparency |
Step 2: Motion Sensitivity
Motion is the most commonly harmful interface property. Handle it rigorously:
Default behaviour:
- All animations and transitions are wrapped in a motion preference check
prefers-reduced-motion: reducedisables non-essential animation- Essential motion (e.g., a progress bar filling) uses reduced, simpler alternatives
Implementation pattern:
/* Full motion (default) */
.element { transition: transform 300ms ease-out; }
/* Reduced motion */
@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce) {
.element { transition: none; }
}Never autoplay:
- Video, carousel, or animated content must not play automatically
- If autoplay is a business requirement, provide immediate pause/stop controls AND respect prefers-reduced-motion
Step 3: Colour Scheme Adaptation
Dark mode is not "invert the colours." It is a separate design exercise:
- Backgrounds: dark grey (not pure black) reduces eye strain
- Text: off-white (not pure white) on dark backgrounds
- Elevation: lighter shades indicate higher elevation in dark mode (opposite of light mode shadows)
- Semantic colours: error red, success green — these may need different shades in dark mode to maintain contrast
- Images and illustrations: may need dark-mode variants or reduced brightness
Step 4: Typography Flexibility
Text must be resizable without breaking the layout:
- Use
remoremunits, never fixedpxfor font sizes - Test at 200% browser zoom — content must remain usable
- Support system-level large text settings
- Line spacing, letter spacing, and word spacing should be adjustable (WCAG 1.4.12)
- Do not clip or overflow text when sizes change

Step 5: Information Density
Different users need different densities:
- Spacious: more whitespace, larger touch targets, fewer items visible — beneficial for motor impairments, cognitive load, mobile use
- Comfortable: balanced — the default for most users
- Compact: denser information, smaller elements — beneficial for power users, large dataset work
If offering density controls:
- Persist the user's choice across sessions
- Ensure all density levels maintain accessibility requirements (touch targets, contrast, readability)
Step 6: Respect and Persist Preferences
- System-level preferences (via media queries) should be respected automatically with no opt-in required
- Application-level preferences (density, layout) should be easy to find, easy to change, and persisted
- Never override system preferences without explicit user action
- Never require users to justify their preferences (no "Are you sure you want dark mode?")
Step 7: Document Adaptive Behaviour
For each adaptive property, document:
- What adapts and why
- The default behaviour
- The adapted behaviour for each preference
- How the preference is detected and respected
- Fallback behaviour when preference detection is unavailable
