bolder

bolder is a skill for Claude Code from HK-hub/AgentSkills. It costs 51 tokens per session (1,475 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of bolder, MIT.

A design-review guide for making a bland or overly cautious interface more distinctive and visually engaging while keeping it usable.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for increasing visual impact in interfaces, including stronger color and scale choices, clearer emphasis, more character, and appropriate motion.
Why use it?
It helps identify why a design feels generic, such as weak contrast, timid sizing, flat hierarchy, or a lack of motion and personality. It also requires gathering brand, audience, purpose, and constraint information first.

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

bolder 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 7d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

95% identical to bolder — 7 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 116 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Increase visual impact and personality in designs that are too safe, generic, or visually underwhelming, creating more engaging and memorable experiences.

MANDATORY PREPARATION

Invoke /frontend-design — it contains design principles, anti-patterns, and the Context Gathering Protocol. Follow the protocol before proceeding — if no design context exists yet, you MUST run /teach-impeccable first.


Assess Current State

Analyze what makes the design feel too safe or boring:

  1. Identify weakness sources:

    • Generic choices: System fonts, basic colors, standard layouts
    • Timid scale: Everything is medium-sized with no drama
    • Low contrast: Everything has similar visual weight
    • Static: No motion, no energy, no life
    • Predictable: Standard patterns with no surprises
    • Flat hierarchy: Nothing stands out or commands attention
  2. Understand the context:

    • What's the brand personality? (How far can we push?)
    • What's the purpose? (Marketing can be bolder than financial dashboards)
    • Who's the audience? (What will resonate?)
    • What are the constraints? (Brand guidelines, accessibility, performance)

If any of these are unclear from the codebase, ask the user directly to clarify what you cannot infer.

CRITICAL: "Bolder" doesn't mean chaotic or garish. It means distinctive, memorable, and confident. Think intentional drama, not random chaos.

WARNING - AI SLOP TRAP: When making things "bolder," AI defaults to the same tired tricks: cyan/purple gradients, glassmorphism, neon accents on dark backgrounds, gradient text on metrics. These are the OPPOSITE of bold—they're generic. Review ALL the DON'T guidelines in the frontend-design skill before proceeding. Bold means distinctive, not "more effects."

Plan Amplification

Create a strategy to increase impact while maintaining coherence:

  • Focal point: What should be the hero moment? (Pick ONE, make it amazing)
  • Personality direction: Maximalist chaos? Elegant drama? Playful energy? Dark moody? Choose a lane.
  • Risk budget: How experimental can we be? Push boundaries within constraints.
  • Hierarchy amplification: Make big things BIGGER, small things smaller (increase contrast)

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.
