At a glance

Apply interface craft when building or reviewing UI - motion, easing, timing, springs, component feel, and visual foundations.

  • Works in 4 steps: Should it animate at all? → What is the purpose? → What easing? → …
  • Building a component
  • SKILL.md covers Motion decision framework, Springs, Component feel and Visual foundations, plus 1 more section
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Design Engineering is an agent skill from rohitg00/pro-workflow. Apply interface craft when building or reviewing UI - motion, easing, timing, springs, component feel, and visual foundations. Use when building a component, animation, transition, hover or press state, modal, drawer, toast, or when polishing an interface so it feels right. Says "make this feel better", "add an animation", "polish the UI", "review this component".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k 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 Agent Workflows. The repository describes itself as: Claude Code learns from your corrections: self-correcting memory that compounds over 50+ sessions. Context engineering, parallel worktrees, agent teams, and 17 battle-tested…

When your agent uses it

  • Building a component
  • Polishing an interface so it feels right

Example prompts

  • “make this feel better”
  • “add an animation”
  • “polish the UI”
  • “/design-engineering”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Should it animate at all?
  2. What is the purpose?
  3. What easing?
  4. How fast?

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 86d5f27. 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

Design Engineering loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 96 tokens; SKILL.md has 572 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~96
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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 572 words (~1,190 tokens).

“In a world where most software works well enough, feel is the differentiator. Most of what makes an interface feel right is detail the user never consciously notices - the aggregate of small correct choices. Build for that aggregate.”

Can I use Design Engineering in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add rohitg00/pro-workflow --skill design-engineering -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/design-engineering, .gemini/skills/design-engineering, .github/skills/design-engineering and .opencode/skills/design-engineering in your project.

What does Design Engineering need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Design Engineering is instructions for the agent only.

Does Design Engineering access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Design Engineering safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Design Engineering use?

No licence was found for Design Engineering or its repository. Without one, default copyright applies: ask the author before reusing or redistributing it.

How many tokens does Design Engineering use?

About 1.2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 4.8k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Design Engineering?
