- Is the full skill already installed?
Check whether the skill at this location still has a das: block: - Global: grep -q "^das:" ~/.agents/skills/taste-skill/SKILL.md 2>/dev/null && echo "pointer" || echo "installed" - Project: grep -q "^das:" .agents/skills/taste-skill/SKILL.md 2>/dev/null && echo "pointer" || echo "installed" - No das: block → full skill installed, invoke it and proceed - das: block present → go to step 2
- Detect scope, then install:
To detect scope: ``bash [ -e ~/.agents/skills/taste-skill ] && echo "global" || echo "project" ``
Global (installed with -g): ``bash npx skills add Leonxlnx/taste-skill --skill taste-skill -g -y ``
Project (installed without -g): ``bash npx skills add Leonxlnx/taste-skill --skill taste-skill -y ` > Claude Code: send either command as a chat message starting with !` to run it without leaving the conversation.

What it does
Applies senior UI/UX engineer taste via three tunable dials:
| Dial | Default | Range | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
DESIGN_VARIANCE |
8 |
1–10 | 1 = perfect symmetry → 10 = artsy asymmetry |
MOTION_INTENSITY |
6 |
1–10 | 1 = static → 10 = cinematic spring physics |
VISUAL_DENSITY |
4 |
1–10 | 1 = art gallery / airy → 10 = cockpit / data-packed |
Override dials in chat: "set motion to 3", "max density". Enforces strict bans against AI design tells: Inter font, centered heroes, 3-column equal card rows, neon glows, pure black (#000), AI-purple gradients, emoji in UI.
When NOT to use
- Backend code, APIs, data pipelines, CLI tools, or any non-UI task
- When the user explicitly wants generic or template-style UI
