neumorphism

neumorphism is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from bergside/awesome-design-skills. It costs 26 tokens per session (787 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of bold, MIT.

A design-system guide for soft, raised interface elements made with inner and outer shadows on single-color surfaces. This style is called neumorphism because controls appear pressed into or lifted from the interface.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when designing playful, monochromatic interfaces with embossed controls, visible focus states, and clear loading, empty, and error states.
Why use it?
It gives clear rules for creating a tactile visual style while keeping labels, states, responsive behavior, and accessibility consistent.

About the project

Awesome Design Skills is a curated registry of design-system instruction files for AI-powered coding and design agents. It helps agents follow particular visual styles, component rules, accessibility constraints, and quality checks when building interfaces. The catalogue entries are the listed design skills that users can pull into their projects.

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

neumorphism 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.

Style Foundations

  • Visual style: minimal, clean, high-contrast, playful, matrix
  • Typography scale: desktop-first expressive scale | Fonts: primary=Space Mono, display=Space Mono, mono=JetBrains Mono | weights=100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900
  • Color palette: primary, secondary, success, warning, danger, info | Tokens: primary=#006666, secondary=#F1F2F5, success=#00A63D, warning=#FE9900, danger=#FF2157, surface=#E7E5E4, text=#1E2938
  • Spacing scale: compact density mode

Accessibility

WCAG 2.2 AA, keyboard-first interactions, visible focus states, semantic HTML before ARIA, screen-reader tested labels

Writing Tone

concise, confident, helpful, clear, friendly

Rules: Do

  • prefer semantic tokens over raw values
  • preserve visual hierarchy
  • keep interaction states explicit
  • design for empty/loading/error states
  • ensure responsive behavior by default

Rules: Don't

  • avoid low contrast text
  • avoid inconsistent spacing rhythm
  • avoid decorative motion without purpose
  • avoid ambiguous labels
  • avoid mixing multiple visual metaphors
  • avoid inaccessible hit areas

Expected Behavior

  • Follow the foundations first, then component consistency.
  • When uncertain, prioritize accessibility and clarity over novelty.
  • Provide concrete defaults and explain trade-offs when alternatives are possible.
  • Keep guidance opinionated, concise, and implementation-focused.

Guideline Authoring Workflow

  1. Restate the design intent in one sentence before proposing rules.
  2. Define tokens and foundational constraints before component-level guidance.
  3. Specify component anatomy, states, variants, and interaction behavior.
  4. Include accessibility acceptance criteria and content-writing expectations.
  5. Add anti-patterns and migration notes for existing inconsistent UI.
  6. End with a QA checklist that can be executed in code review.

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.
