ui-agent-patterns is a skill for Claude Code from HermeticOrmus/LibreUIUX-Claude-Code. It costs 65 tokens per session (3,844 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A collection of patterns for assigning interface work to specialised software agents and combining their results.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan multi-agent interface generation, choose between a coordinating agent and specialists, and manage design systems, accessibility checks, and iterative refinement.
Why use it?
It helps decide how to divide complex UI work, share design information, and coordinate reviews and handoffs between agents.

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

ui-agent-patterns 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 19d 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.

UI Agent Patterns

Patterns for orchestrating AI agents to generate, refine, and maintain user interfaces. This skill bridges Karpathy's "new programming vocabulary" with practical UI/UX development workflows.


When to Use This Skill

  • Delegating complex UI generation to specialized agents
  • Deciding between synthesis-master vs specialized agent architectures
  • Orchestrating multi-agent workflows for design systems
  • Managing handoffs between research, design, and implementation agents
  • Building agent pipelines for iterative UI refinement
  • Scaling UI generation beyond single-agent capabilities

Core Concepts

The New Programming Vocabulary

Karpathy's insight: LLMs introduce new programming primitives that extend beyond functions and objects:

Primitive Description UI Application
Agents Autonomous LLM-powered workers UI generators, reviewers, refiners
Subagents Delegated specialists Component builders, accessibility checkers
Prompts Instructions as code Design specifications, component contracts
Contexts Shared state and knowledge Design tokens, brand guidelines
Memory Persistent learning Style preferences, past decisions
Modes Behavioral configurations Draft mode, production mode, audit mode
Permissions Capability boundaries Read-only review vs code modification
Tools External capabilities Figma API, browser DevTools, screenshot capture
Plugins Modular extensions Design system loaders, component libraries
Skills Reusable knowledge This file - codified expertise
Hooks Lifecycle interceptors Pre-commit design checks, post-render audits
MCP Model Context Protocol Tool integration standard
Workflows Orchestrated sequences Design-to-code pipelines

Agent Architecture Patterns

Pattern 1: Synthesis-Master Architecture

A single powerful agent handles the full UI generation task.

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.
