What it does

Hardwarevisualizer Design Review is an agent skill from shm11C3/HardwareVisualizer. Review or shape HardwareVisualizer product and architecture changes against the maintainer's design principles. Use when planning, implementing, or reviewing behavior that affects hardware availability, collection cost, live/history semantics, settings, persistence, user selection, Core/App ownership, optional components, privacy, or user-visible evidence.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).

It sits in Media & Creative, covering Design review and critique. The repository describes itself as: A cross-platform hardware monitor with real-time metrics, local history, and customizable dashboards. The licence is GPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Reviewing behavior that affects hardware availability
  • Collection cost
  • Live/history semantics
  • Core/App ownership

Example prompts

  • “/hardwarevisualizer-design-review”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Frame The Product Claim
  2. Map Ownership
  3. Check Semantics
  4. Check Cost And Optionality
  5. Check User Intent And Privacy
  6. Define Proof Before Editing

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit fc54f73. 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

Hardwarevisualizer Design Review loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 98 tokens; SKILL.md has 487 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~98
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

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.

description
Review or shape HardwareVisualizer product and architecture changes against the maintainer's design principles. Use when planning, implementing, or reviewing behavior that affects hardware availability, collection cost, live/history semantics, settings, persistence, user selection, Core/App ownership, optional components, privacy, or user-visible evidence.

HardwareVisualizer Design Review

Load The Decision Context

Read only the context relevant to the change:

  1. docs/design-principles.md.
  2. The applicable terms in CONTEXT.md.
  3. The nearest scoped AGENTS.md and owner README.
  4. Relevant ADRs, including their status.
  5. Current code/tests/runtime evidence for the claimed behavior.

Treat lessons, handoffs, issue comments, and AI memory as leads. Verify them against the current branch and canonical sources before using them as facts.

Review Workflow

1. Frame The Product Claim

State the user-visible outcome in one sentence. Name the issue or explicit request that anchors scope. Separate adjacent cleanup or features unless they are necessary for the same claim.

2. Map Ownership

Identify who owns each part:

  • hardware fact and collection;
  • product policy and fallback;
  • presentation and wire conversion;
  • interaction/view state;
  • lifecycle and background work;
  • persisted value and migration.

Reject designs that move Tauri into Core, OS access into commands/frontend, or Application Preferences into frontend Tauri Store for convenience.

3. Check Semantics

Ask:

  • Is the value live, short-window, archived, daily-record, or UI-local?
  • Is the subject automatic focus, current data, or explicit user selection?
  • Are the availability/validity states defined by this domain preserved rather than flattened into a generic status model?
  • Does a partial provider/device failure preserve useful results?
  • Does uncertainty avoid destructive deactivation or data loss?

Use existing CONTEXT.md terms. Propose a glossary change before inventing a new synonym for an existing concept.

4. Check Cost And Optionality

Confirm collection/rendering cost follows visible or explicit background value. Do not stop legitimate archive/tray work merely because the main window is hidden.

For an optional component, verify it was attempted and all useful fallbacks are insufficient before showing guidance. Do not label unsupported hardware as a missing installation.

5. Check User Intent And Privacy

Explicit user choices must survive automatic refresh while they remain valid. If a selected subject is temporarily absent, use a coherent fallback without unnecessarily deleting the stored intent. Only choices classified as Application Preferences are required to survive restart as app configuration; UI-local state may be reset.

Persist only the local identifiers needed for the feature and do not introduce telemetry or portable identity without an explicit product decision.

6. Define Proof Before Editing

Choose evidence that proves the actual claim:

  • focused unit/integration contract;
  • runtime log or SQLite state;
  • web/mock UI behavior;
  • native Tauri integration;
  • rendered screenshot at relevant viewports;
  • measured performance/CI timing;
  • release artifact/signature inspection.

Do not substitute one evidence class for another.

Decision

Return one of these outcomes before or alongside implementation:

  • Aligned: existing principles and ownership cover the change.
  • Aligned with guardrail: proceed with a named test, rule, or migration.
  • ADR required: a specific trade-off or exception needs a recorded decision.
  • Clarification required: canonical sources conflict or product intent is not discoverable.
  • Not aligned: explain the violated principle and the smallest viable design correction.

When implementation is requested and the decision is aligned, continue through the change and validation. Do not stop at the review summary.
