Summary

  • Delight pass — adds one or two memorable micro-interactions (copy specificity, hover choreography, state transitions, one signature detail) without decoration or confetti.
  • Use when the UI works but feels generic, or when the user says \"make it feel special\" / \"add some personality\".
  • Invoke when the user asks for delight on their UI, or mentions 'delight' alongside design / UI / frontend work.

Context: this sub-skill is one lens of the broader ui-craft skill. If the ui-craft skill is also installed, read its SKILL.md first for Discovery + Anti-Slop + Craft Test, then apply the specific lens below.

Add delight to the UI at $ARGUMENTS. Load the ui-craft skill.

Delight is specificity, not decoration. The goal is one or two moments a user would screenshot — not confetti, not bounce, not emoji.

Candidates, ordered by safety (start at the top):

  1. Copy specificity — confirmation toasts name the thing ("3 members invited — Alex, Sam, Jordan", not "Invites sent"). Empty states with wit but no cringe ("Nothing here yet — add your first project" > "Oops! Looks like it's empty 😅").
  2. Hover choreography — multi-property hover (transform + color + shadow) that moves together on one shared duration/easing. One card, not every card.
  3. State transitions — optimistic UI + tiny success micro-animation (checkmark stroke draw, count-up on a number, subtle scale-and-settle on the updated row).
  4. One signature detail — custom list markers tied to the domain, asymmetric column offset on a single section, scroll-linked progress that tracks something real (reading progress, form completion).

Never add:

  • Bounce easing (cubic-bezier(0.68, -0.55, 0.27, 1.55)) — flagged in anti-slop.
  • Confetti on mundane actions (file saved, field updated).
  • Emoji spam or "🎉 SUCCESS!" in ALL CAPS.
  • Idle float/bob/shimmer on elements that aren't waiting for anything.

Knob gating (MOTION_INTENSITY):

  • ≤ 3 → copy-only delight. No animated delight. Candidate 1 only.
  • 4-7 → copy + hover + state transitions (candidates 1-3).
  • 8+ → all four, including the signature detail.

References to read: references/motion.md (Decision Ladder + interaction rules), references/copy.md (microcopy voice), ../examples/animation-storyboard.md (if multi-stage).

Output: edit code directly. Print the Review Format table. Flag every candidate you chose not to add and why.

Next step: /finalize — delight is the last additive pass; gate it before shipping (rung 3).
