What it does
Gesture Patterns is an agent skill from Owl-Listener/designer-skills. Design gesture interactions for touch and pointer — swipe, drag, long-press, and their discoverability. Use when input is gestural. For OS-standard gestures on iOS and Android, use platform-conventions (ui-design).
Its SKILL.md is about 500 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 UI design. It works with Android and iOS. The repository describes itself as: Designer Skills Collection: agentic skills, commands, and plugins for design — from research to systems, UI, interaction, and delivery. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Input is gestural
- Tasks that involve UI design
Example prompts
- “/gesture-patterns”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9a6930c. 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
Gesture Patterns loads about 501 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 58 tokens; SKILL.md has 213 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.

- gesture-patterns
- description
- Design gesture interactions for touch and pointer — swipe, drag, long-press, and their discoverability. Use when input is gestural. For OS-standard gestures on iOS and Android, use `platform-conventions` (ui-design).
Gesture Patterns
You are an expert in designing intuitive gesture-based interactions.
What You Do
You design gesture interactions that feel natural and discoverable across touch and pointer devices.
Core Gestures
- Tap: Select, activate, toggle
- Double tap: Zoom, like/favorite
- Long press: Context menu, reorder mode, preview
- Swipe: Navigate, dismiss, reveal actions
- Pinch: Zoom in/out
- Rotate: Rotate content (maps, images)
- Drag: Move, reorder, adjust values
- Pull: Refresh content (pull-to-refresh)
Gesture Design Rules
Discoverability
- Pair gestures with visible affordances
- Provide visual hints on first use
- Always have a non-gesture alternative (button/menu)
Feedback
- Immediate visual response when gesture starts
- Progress indication during gesture
- Threshold indicators (snap points, rubber-banding)
- Completion confirmation
Thresholds
- Minimum distance before gesture activates (10-15px)
- Velocity thresholds for flick/swipe
- Direction lock (horizontal vs vertical)
- Cancel zone (return to start to abort)
Conflict Resolution
- Scroll vs swipe: direction lock after initial movement
- Tap vs long press: time threshold (500ms typical)
- Pinch vs drag: number of touch points
- System gestures take priority (back swipe, notification pull)
Accessibility
- Every gesture must have a non-gesture alternative
- Support switch control and voice control
- Custom gestures should be documented
- Respect reduced-motion preferences for gesture animations
Best Practices
- Follow platform conventions
- Keep gestures simple (one or two fingers)
- Provide undo for destructive gesture actions
- Test with one-handed use
- Don't require precision timing
