What it does

UI Copy is an agent skill from superplanehq/superplane. Use when writing, editing, reviewing, or replacing UI copy, UX writing, microcopy, button labels, link text, form labels, helper text, empty states, error messages, confirmation dialogs, onboarding text, notifications, or user-facing product wording — including when designing or implementing UI. Applies ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English style.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k 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 Development. The repository describes itself as: Open source factory for one-shot engineering.

When your agent uses it

  • Replacing UI copy
  • Confirmation dialogs
  • Onboarding text
  • User-facing product wording — including when designing

Example prompts

  • “/ui-copy”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Identify the user's current goal, screen state, and likely concern.
  2. Find nearby existing copy and match the product vocabulary, casing, tense, and tone.
  3. Draft the clearest STE version first. Prefer plain, specific, task-oriented language over personality.
  4. Tighten the copy until every word has a job (≤20 words for instructions, ≤25 for descriptions).
  5. Check that buttons, links, errors, and helper text set accurate expectations.
  6. If changing existing copy, scan adjacent screens or components for terms that should stay consistent.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 334d26c. 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

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com

    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

UI Copy loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 90 tokens; SKILL.md has 881 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~90
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 881 words (~1,623 tokens).

“Write interface copy as part of the design, not as decoration after the layout is done. The product is speaking to someone who is trying to complete a task.”
