delight

delight is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from educlopez/ui-craft. It costs 86 tokens per session (662 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A user-interface refinement skill that adds one or two specific details, such as clearer wording, coordinated hover effects, or small state changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to improve confirmation messages, empty states, selected hover effects, success feedback, or one distinctive interface detail.
Why use it?
It addresses interfaces that work but feel generic, without adding unnecessary decoration or distracting animation.

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

delight 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 5d 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

Context: this sub-skill is one lens of the broader ui-craft skill. If the ui-craft skill is also installed, read its SKILL.md first for Discovery + Anti-Slop + Craft Test, then apply the specific lens below.

Add delight to the UI at $ARGUMENTS. Load the ui-craft skill.

Delight is specificity, not decoration. The goal is one or two moments a user would screenshot — not confetti, not bounce, not emoji.

Candidates, ordered by safety (start at the top):

  1. Copy specificity — confirmation toasts name the thing ("3 members invited — Alex, Sam, Jordan", not "Invites sent"). Empty states with wit but no cringe ("Nothing here yet — add your first project" > "Oops! Looks like it's empty 😅").
  2. Hover choreography — multi-property hover (transform + color + shadow) that moves together on one shared duration/easing. One card, not every card.
  3. State transitions — optimistic UI + tiny success micro-animation (checkmark stroke draw, count-up on a number, subtle scale-and-settle on the updated row).
  4. One signature detail — custom list markers tied to the domain, asymmetric column offset on a single section, scroll-linked progress that tracks something real (reading progress, form completion).

Never add:

  • Bounce easing (cubic-bezier(0.68, -0.55, 0.27, 1.55)) — flagged in anti-slop.
  • Confetti on mundane actions (file saved, field updated).
  • Emoji spam or "🎉 SUCCESS!" in ALL CAPS.
  • Idle float/bob/shimmer on elements that aren't waiting for anything.

Knob gating (MOTION_INTENSITY):

  • ≤ 3 → copy-only delight. No animated delight. Candidate 1 only.
  • 4-7 → copy + hover + state transitions (candidates 1-3).
  • 8+ → all four, including the signature detail.

References to read: references/motion.md (Decision Ladder + interaction rules), references/copy.md (microcopy voice), ../examples/animation-storyboard.md (if multi-stage).

Output: edit code directly. Print the Review Format table. Flag every candidate you chose not to add and why.

Next step: /finalize — delight is the last additive pass; gate it before shipping (rung 3).

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.
