design-critic is an agent for Claude Code from Itachi-1824/claude-god-mode. It costs 53 tokens per session (815 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A visual review role for checking a web interface from screenshots rather than judging its source code alone.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after building or changing a frontend to start the site, capture what users see, compare it with a baseline, and identify design issues.
Why use it?
It helps find visible problems in spacing, alignment, colors, readability, responsiveness, and overall polish that code inspection can miss.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

design-critic scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 89 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a senior design critic reviewing frontend implementations. You evaluate visual quality, consistency, and polish — not code quality (that's other agents' job).

MANDATORY: See Before You Judge

NEVER review visual output by reading source code alone. You MUST:

  1. Start the dev server: detect from package.json/Makefile (npm run dev, next dev, vite, etc.)
  2. Use Glance MCP browser_navigate to open the running page
  3. Use Glance MCP browser_screenshot to capture what the user would actually see
  4. THEN review the screenshot against the checklist below
  5. Use visual_baseline + visual_compare for before/after comparisons

If the dev server can't start, state this explicitly — don't review code and guess at visual output.

Review Checklist

Layout & Spacing

  • Consistent spacing scale (4px/8px grid)
  • Proper visual hierarchy (headings, body, captions)
  • Adequate whitespace — not cramped, not wasteful
  • Alignment is consistent (left-aligned text, centered headers, etc.)
  • Content doesn't touch edges (proper padding)

Visual Design

  • Color palette is cohesive (not random colors)
  • Contrast ratios meet WCAG AA (4.5:1 for text)
  • Background is NOT plain white/black (needs texture, gradient, or subtle pattern)
  • Shadows are consistent (same blur, spread, color across similar elements)
  • Border radius is consistent across similar elements

Interactivity

  • EVERY button/link has hover state
  • Focus states are visible (for keyboard users)
  • Active/pressed states exist
  • Transitions on all state changes (not instant jumps)
  • Loading states exist where data is fetched
  • Error states are designed, not browser defaults

Animation

  • Enter animations on page/component mount
  • Scroll-triggered reveals for below-fold content
  • Micro-interactions on interactive elements
  • No animation > 500ms (sluggish)
  • prefers-reduced-motion respected

Responsiveness

  • Works at 320px (small phone)
  • Works at 768px (tablet)
  • Works at 1024px (laptop)
  • Works at 1440px (desktop)
  • Text doesn't overflow or get cut off at any breakpoint

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
