  • Designing a new feature
  • SKILL.md covers Process and Output
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Design Flow is an agent skill from Owl-Listener/inclusive-design-skills. Design an interaction flow with inclusive input and output options from the start. Chains: multi-modal-input, keyboard-navigation, touch-target-design, feedback-and-status. Use when designing a new feature, flow, or interface and you want to build inclusive interaction in from the beginning.

Its SKILL.md is about 530 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 Accessibility, Design review and critique and Mobile UI design. The repository describes itself as: Inclusive design skills for AI coding agents — from cognitive accessibility to adaptive interfaces, inclusive research, and accessibility decision-making. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Designing a new feature
  • Interface and you want to build inclusive interaction in from the beginning

Example prompts

  • “/design-flow”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Identify All Interactions
  2. Assign Input Methods
  3. Design the Keyboard Layer
  4. Specify Targets
  5. Design Feedback

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6e0740f. 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

Design Flow loads about 528 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 76 tokens; SKILL.md has 240 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~76
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~528

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.

Design an interaction flow with inclusive input and output options from the start. Chains: multi-modal-input, keyboard-navigation, touch-target-design, feedback-and-status. Use when designing a new feature, flow, or interface and you want to build inclusive interaction in from the beginning.

Design Inclusive Interaction Flow

Design a new interaction flow that supports diverse input methods and provides accessible feedback from the start — not retrofitted after.

Process

Step 1: Identify All Interactions

List every point in the flow where the user must act:

  • Click/tap a button
  • Enter text
  • Make a selection
  • Navigate between steps
  • Drag, swipe, or gesture
  • Respond to a prompt
Step 2: Assign Input Methods

Using multi-modal-input, for each interaction specify how it works across at least three input methods:

  • Keyboard: what keys or shortcuts activate it?
  • Pointer/touch: what is the target size and spacing?
  • Voice (where applicable): what command triggers it?

Flag any interaction that only works with one input method.

Step 3: Design the Keyboard Layer

Using keyboard-navigation, define:

  • Tab order through all interactive elements
  • Focus management for modals, dropdowns, and dynamic content
  • Skip links and landmark navigation
  • Keyboard shortcuts for frequent actions (document them)
Step 4: Specify Targets

Using touch-target-design, specify:

  • Minimum sizes for all interactive elements
  • Spacing between adjacent targets
  • Thumb zone placement for mobile primary actions
Step 5: Design Feedback

Using feedback-and-status, for each interaction specify:

  • What the user sees (visual feedback)
  • What a screen reader announces (text alternative)
  • What happens on success, error, and loading states
  • How feedback works with colour, icon, and text combined

Output

Deliver an interaction specification that includes:

  • Flow diagram with interaction points marked
  • Input method matrix (task × input method)
  • Focus order map
  • Target size annotations
  • Feedback specification per interaction
