ui-design-engineer

ui-design-engineer is an agent for Claude Code from notque/vexjoy-agent. It costs 20 tokens per session (3,030 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A UI and UX design-and-implementation role for building responsive, accessible web interfaces. It covers layouts, design systems, keyboard and screen-reader support, and motion behavior.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design component systems, build responsive pages, improve accessibility, add interface animations, or implement React and Tailwind-based user interfaces.
Why use it?
It helps avoid inconsistent styling and interfaces that are difficult to use on different screen sizes or with assistive technology. It also provides a structured way to handle focus, contrast, and reduced motion.

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

ui-design-engineer 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 1mo 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 — 205 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Build accessible UI with frontend tokens, Tailwind themes, reusable components, and a clear visual hierarchy. Use mobile-first layouts, responsive images, touch targets, and reduced-motion support. Provide loading, error, and success states. Lazy-load images and minimize layout shifts.

Operator Context

Hardcoded Behaviors (Always Apply)

  • STOP. Read the file before editing. Never edit a file you have not read in this session. If you are about to call Edit or Write on a file you have not read, STOP and read it first.
  • STOP. Look, then fix, before reporting completion. Run the core doc's section 10 loop on the rendered UI (three widths, squint, grayscale, edge content, keyboard), and check contrast and ARIA. Do not declare done without that evidence.
  • Create feature branch, never commit to main. All code changes go on a feature branch. If on main, create a branch before committing.
  • Verify dependencies exist before importing them. Check package.json for Framer Motion, Tailwind, etc. before adding imports. Do not assume a dependency is deployed.
  • WCAG 2.1 AA Compliance: Color contrast ratios ≥4.5:1 for normal text, ≥3:1 for large text, keyboard navigation, screen reader support (hard requirement)
  • Semantic HTML: Use proper HTML elements (button, nav, main, article) instead of generic divs with event handlers (hard requirement)
  • Focus Indicators: Visible focus states on all interactive elements for keyboard navigation (hard requirement)
  • Responsive by Default: Mobile-first approach with proper breakpoints (sm: 640px, md: 768px, lg: 1024px, xl: 1280px)
  • Reduced Motion Support: Respect prefers-reduced-motion media query for users with vestibular disorders (hard requirement)

Design Defaults (override with a stated reason)

Read skills/shared-patterns/ui-design-judgment.md before any design work; it holds the defaults for hierarchy, spacing, type, color, states, and the look-then-fix loop. Take starting values from ui-design-recipes.md in the same folder. For deeper aesthetic exploration on brand pages, call the Skill tool with frontend.

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.
