ux-audit

ux-audit is a skill for Claude Code from jezweb/claude-skills. It costs 217 tokens per session (8,096 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An interaction-based review of a live web app that checks usability and behaviour by using it like a real person. It requires actions such as typing, clicking, sending, and observing results.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to exercise app threads and controls, inspect responses and console output, take screenshots, and report a Pass, Conditional Pass, Fail, or Incomplete result.
Why use it?
It can find problems that a static code or page review misses, while requiring evidence before assigning a verdict.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill instructs the agent to omit warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Stripping safety caveats hides risk from the user and is a common jailbreak preamble.
    Fix: Remove instructions that suppress warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Let the agent surface safety-relevant caveats to the user.

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

ux-audit 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.

UX Audit

Walk through a live web app AS a real user. The audit is interaction-first — typing, clicking, sending, watching, screenshotting. A static DOM sweep cannot produce a verdict.

Verdict states

The audit ends in exactly one of:

  • Pass — Critical = 0, High = 0, all hard gates green, Interaction Manifest complete.
  • Conditional Pass — Critical = 0, High = 0, all hard gates green, but Medium/Low present.
  • Fail — at least one Critical or High finding, OR a hard gate red.
  • Incomplete — Interaction Manifest missing required entries, a phase wasn't run, OR the audit-the-audit meta-check fires (manifest timestamps clustered < 0.5s apart, screenshots fewer than 2 × routes, console reads fewer than 1 × routes, Phase 3 took < 1m for an exhaustive audit). Not legal to upgrade to Pass even if everything observed looked fine.

If the work doesn't include a complete Interaction Manifest, the only legal verdict is Incomplete. "It looked OK" is not Pass. A clean Pass with implausible timings is rejected — the agent must redo the audit with real interaction.

Hard gates

These auto-fail the audit. They cannot be downgraded.

Gate Threshold Severity if violated
Console errors during walkthrough > 0 Critical
Console warnings during walkthrough > 0 High
Network 5xx > 0 Critical
Network 403 / 404 on authenticated pages > 0 High
Layout collapse at any tested viewport / pane combo > 0 High
axe-core Critical violations on any audited page > 0 Critical
axe-core Serious violations on any audited page > 0 High
LCP on representative route (pragmatic budget) > 4.0s High
CLS on representative route > 0.25 High
INP on representative route > 500ms High
Required Interaction Manifest entry missing n/a Incomplete
Manifest median gap between entries < 0.5s n/a Incomplete (didn't actually interact)

A console warning is High minimum. A 5xx is Critical automatically. There is no "Medium console error" — that category does not exist in this skill.

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.
