product-design-director

product-design-director is a skill for Codex from cmdr-chara/codex-toolkit. It costs 79 tokens per session (1,896 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for deciding how a product should look, communicate, and behave across screens. It turns product goals, user needs, brand material, content, and constraints into a practical design direction.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define or improve a web or mobile experience, critique an existing interface, shape a design system, or prepare a brief that developers can build from.
Why use it?
It helps resolve unclear design decisions before implementation and exposes problems in layout, user flows, screen states, responsive behavior, accessibility, and visual consistency.

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

product-design-director 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 8d 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.

Product Design Director

Turn product intent into an implementable experience system. Direction comes from evidence and constraints, not a default aesthetic.

Trigger boundary

Use this skill for:

  • establishing product, UX, brand, and visual direction for a new experience;
  • redesigning an existing interface without losing functional truth;
  • extracting a coherent design system from product/brand evidence;
  • critiquing hierarchy, flows, states, responsive behavior, accessibility, and visual consistency;
  • preparing an implementation-ready design brief for web or mobile builders.

Do not trigger for:

  • reproducing a supplied screenshot or visual reference—use screenshot-to-interface;
  • building an already-specified web/mobile interface—use the platform builder;
  • choosing Flutter versus Expo—use mobile-architecture-director;
  • applying a fashionable style without product, audience, and content evidence.

Required inputs

Gather or infer with labeled assumptions:

  1. product, user, job-to-be-done, and primary success action;
  2. content/information hierarchy and required flows;
  3. brand assets, existing product, competitors/references, and prohibited directions;
  4. target devices, input modes, languages, content variability, and accessibility obligations;
  5. technical/organizational constraints and delivery stage;
  6. for redesigns, screenshots and current implementation/state inventory.

Do not block on subjective adjectives alone. Translate “premium,” “simple,” or “bold” into observable hierarchy, density, typography, material, motion, and interaction choices.

Provenance

This skill is an original restructuring that selectively adapts concepts from Leonxlnx/taste-skill. Read references/provenance.md and preserve the root THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md when redistributing.

Safety baseline

  • Inspect the current product, repository, and approved assets before proposing replacement.
  • Preserve validated behavior, content obligations, platform conventions, and user work; do not disguise functional regression as visual simplification.
  • Distinguish observed product/brand evidence from inference and subjective preference.
  • Do not copy a competitor's protected assets, trade dress, or distinctive composition; record provenance and rights for supplied material.
  • Do not use accessibility as a late polish step or trade it away for an aesthetic without an explicit product/legal decision.
  • Do not prescribe a framework, package, or broad rewrite merely to express the direction.

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.
