cross-domain-seeing

cross-domain-seeing is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Dragoon0x/taste-skills. It costs 44 tokens per session (333 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A design observation approach that transfers underlying principles from architecture, fashion, film, industrial design, music, and physical spaces into screen-based work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Finding principles such as hierarchy, rhythm, spacing, contrast, pacing, and material relationships, then applying them to interfaces.
Why use it?
It helps designers learn from other fields without copying their surface appearance.

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

cross-domain-seeing 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 11d 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.

What it actually says

Cross-Domain Seeing

Learn design principles from everything that isn't a screen.

How to use

  • /cross-domain-seeing Apply cross-domain observation principles to this conversation.
  • /cross-domain-seeing <domain> Extract design principles from a specific non-digital domain.

Constraints

Transferable Principles

  • MUST identify the underlying principle, not the surface aesthetic
  • MUST translate observations into screen-applicable language
  • "The museum uses a single material palette with one contrast accent" becomes "restrained palette with one accent color"
  • "The restaurant spaces tables far apart" becomes "generous whitespace signals premium positioning"
  • NEVER copy an aesthetic literally. Extract the principle and reapply it.

Domains to Draw From

  • Architecture: spatial hierarchy, material relationships, light direction, density vs. openness
  • Fashion: proportion, rhythm, texture contrast, restraint, the role of fit
  • Film: pacing, focal point, color grading, tension, the cut as a design decision
  • Industrial design: form following function, material honesty, ergonomics as interface
  • Music: rhythm, dynamics, silence as design element, tension and resolution

Anti-Patterns

  • Saying "inspired by Japanese minimalism" without naming the specific principle
  • Collecting cross-domain references without connecting them to design problems
  • Using architectural terms as jargon rather than genuine analytical tools
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.
