aghub: Skill for Claude Code

Strengthen interfaces against edge cases, errors, internationalization issues, and real-world usage scenarios that break idealized designs.

Assess Hardening Needs

Identify weaknesses and edge cases:

1. Test with extreme inputs:

   • Very long text (names, descriptions, titles)
   • Very short text (empty, single character)
   • Special characters (emoji, RTL text, accents)
   • Large numbers (millions, billions)
   • Many items (1000+ list items, 50+ options)
   • No data (empty states)

2. Test error scenarios:

   • Network failures (offline, slow, timeout)
   • API errors (400, 401, 403, 404, 500)
   • Validation errors
   • Permission errors
   • Rate limiting
   • Concurrent operations

3. Test internationalization:

   • Long translations (German is often 30% longer than English)
   • RTL languages (Arabic, Hebrew)
   • Character sets (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, emoji)
   • Date/time formats
   • Number formats (1,000 vs 1.000)
   • Currency symbols

CRITICAL: Designs that only work with perfect data aren't production-ready. Harden against reality.

Hardening Dimensions

Systematically improve resilience:

Text Overflow & Wrapping

Long text handling:

/* Single line with ellipsis */
.truncate {
	overflow: hidden;
	text-overflow: ellipsis;
	white-space: nowrap;
}

/* Multi-line with clamp */
.line-clamp {
	display: -webkit-box;
	-webkit-line-clamp: 3;
	-webkit-box-orient: vertical;
	overflow: hidden;
}

/* Allow wrapping */
.wrap {
	word-wrap: break-word;
	overflow-wrap: break-word;
	hyphens: auto;
}

Flex/Grid overflow:

/* Prevent flex items from overflowing */
.flex-item {
	min-width: 0; /* Allow shrinking below content size */
	overflow: hidden;
}

/* Prevent grid items from overflowing */
.grid-item {
	min-width: 0;
	min-height: 0;
}

Responsive text sizing:

• Use clamp() for fluid typography
• Set minimum readable sizes (14px on mobile)
• Test text scaling (zoom to 200%)
• Ensure containers expand with text
