ux-extract

ux-extract is a skill for Claude Code from jezweb/claude-skills. It costs 121 tokens per session (2,892 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for studying a reference web app and documenting its user-interface patterns in a reusable library. It records screens, states, wording, interactions, shortcuts, responsive behaviour, and motion.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to research competitors, study established products before building, document design references, or guide an app refresh.
Why use it?
It replaces memory-based comparisons with concrete evidence about how another app handles common interface situations.

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-extract 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 255 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

UX Extract

Exhaustively study a reference web app and produce a reusable pattern library. Goes everywhere, captures everything, then organises it into a document another audit or build can reference.

The inverse of ux-audit:

  • Audit asks: does this match a bar?
  • Extract asks: what is the bar?

Audits without extracts implicitly compare to "my memory of other apps" — fragile and inconsistent. Extracts turn that memory into a concrete, navigable artifact. An audit can then say: "Empty state on /app/clients shows no CTA. Reference (claude.ai) shows 3 keyboard shortcuts plus 'New chat' in the same position" instead of "feels a bit sparse".

When to use

  • Before building a new feature — study how best-in-class apps handle it
  • Benchmarking a build — extract the reference, then audit against it
  • Onboarding designers or engineers — here's what good looks like, concretely
  • Competitor research — document the competitor's UX so you can meaningfully differentiate
  • Refreshing an old app — extract patterns from modern equivalents to guide the update

Scope and ethics

Before starting, confirm the target is fair game:

  1. Use your own account — don't scrape anything that requires credentials you don't legitimately hold
  2. Respect robots.txt for unauthenticated crawling
  3. Rate-limit — act like a human user, not a crawler. Pause between pages.
  4. Check ToS — most SaaS Terms of Service permit individual inspection but prohibit automated scraping
  5. Don't redistribute screenshots of a live competitor's app publicly — pattern libraries are internal references

If the target is behind a paywall or requires a trial account, ask the user whether they have legitimate access before proceeding.

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
