aesthetic-application

aesthetic-application is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from alexiseverage/aesthetic-frontend-skills. It costs 118 tokens per session (2,455 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A design guide that turns a named visual style into concrete colors, fonts, spacing, shapes, and accessibility notes for a user interface.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create design tokens, CSS variables, component instructions, and checks for conflicts or accessibility issues based on an aesthetic.
Why use it?
It removes the guesswork between saying “make it look like this” and giving a developer values they can implement.

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

aesthetic-application 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 2mo 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.

Aesthetic Application

Summary

Translates a named aesthetic into a complete, developer-ready design specification: a structured token specification table, cultural marker lists, component-level notes, and a flags section for conflicts. All decisions are concrete and implementable — never abstract mood descriptions. Covers all 7 dimensions of the aesthetic framework.

Compatibility / Tooling

This skill intentionally does not declare allowed-tools frontmatter. It is portable across Agent Skills-compatible runtimes and relies on reading this SKILL.md plus skill-local references/ markdown files and the installed aesthetic-literacy dictionary. If an agent has file-reading tools, use them to load those files; otherwise ask the user to provide the relevant excerpt.

When to Apply This Skill

Apply when:

  • The user asks to "make it look like X", "apply this aesthetic", or "design tokens for X"
  • The user needs a developer-handoff spec from an aesthetic direction
  • The user asks for CSS variables, design tokens, or component notes grounded in an aesthetic
  • The user has supplied grounded visual values that need to be formatted as tokens

Do NOT apply when:

  • No aesthetic has been identified (run aesthetic-literacy disambiguation first)
  • The user wants implementation advice on components, accessibility resolution, or performance (out of scope)

Dependencies

Requires: aesthetic-literacy (7-dimension framework, dictionary, non-negotiables)
Works with user-supplied grounded values from reference images when available; prefer explicit supplied values over dictionary approximations.

Skill-local references for installed users:

  • references/output-contract.md — required response shape and quality bar
  • references/token-template.md — complete token table scaffold
  • references/css-translation-patterns.md — CSS implementation patterns by aesthetic dimension
  • references/component-notes-contract.md — required component-note coverage

Changes

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.
