A UI/UX design guide for planning accessible interfaces, including colors, fonts, layouts, and components. It requires asking the user before making design decisions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to discuss interface concepts, compare design alternatives, and plan the visual style and structure of a website or app.
Why use it?
It prevents design choices from being made without the user's input and helps avoid generic interface patterns.

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

ux-designer 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 10d 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.

UX Designer

Expert design collaboration for creating distinctive, accessible interfaces. Breaks from generic SaaS patterns.

Critical Protocol

ALWAYS ASK before making any design decisions. Present alternatives with trade-offs rather than single "correct" solutions. Never implement unilaterally.

Core Philosophy

  1. Stand out — avoid "Claude style" defaults and generic SaaS blues. Draw inspiration from modern design studios and landing pages.
  2. Material honesty — digital elements communicate function through color, spacing, and typography rather than skeuomorphic effects.
  3. Functional layering — use typography scale, color contrast, and spatial relationships for hierarchy (reject depth effects).
  4. Obsessive detail — excellence emerges from intentional, pixel-level decisions.
  5. Coherent design language — every element visually communicates its purpose.
  6. Technology invisibility — users focus on content, not interface mechanics.

Before Any Design Decision, Ask

  • What colors should I use? (Don't assume SaaS blue)
  • What fonts feel right for this product?
  • How dense should this layout be?
  • What's the personality — serious, playful, minimal, bold?
  • Who is the user and what do they expect?

Color Architecture

System: 4–5 neutral base colors + 1–3 saturated accent colors

Constraints:

  • WCAG AA minimum contrast (4.5:1 for body text, 3:1 for large text)
  • Deliberately avoid default SaaS blues unless brand requires it
  • Semantic meaning for colors (errors, warnings, success) must be consistent

Questions to ask:

  • Is there an existing brand palette?
  • What mood — warm/cool, energetic/calm?
  • Dark mode required?

Typography

Rules:

  • 2–3 typefaces maximum
  • Mathematical scale relationships (typically 1.25× ratios between sizes)
  • Distinguish emotional headlines from functional body text
  • One typeface for display, one for body is usually enough

Stack to consider:

  • Display: something with personality
  • Body: highly readable at small sizes
  • Mono: for code/data

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.
