visual-audit is a skill for Claude Code from marcoguillermaz/Tierward. It costs 0 tokens per session (5,167 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A visual review guide that checks a website's typography, spacing, colours, dark mode, and information density. It uses Playwright screenshots to score visual quality across ten areas.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review routes in a website in light and dark themes, either quickly, across all pages, or as a detailed critique of one page.
Why use it?
It helps find visual problems that may be missed by reading code or viewing only one page.

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 B, and why

visual-audit scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 9d 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.

Recursive force deletemediumDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

rm -rf "${SCREENSHOT_TEMP_DIR:-/tmp/visual-audit-screenshots}"

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 406 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Configuration (fill in before first run)

Replace these placeholders:

  • [SITEMAP_OR_ROUTE_LIST] - e.g. docs/sitemap.md, docs/routes.md, src/router/index.ts
  • [DEV_URL] - e.g. http://localhost:3000, http://localhost:5173
  • [DEV_COMMAND] - e.g. npm run dev, pnpm dev
  • [TEST_ACCOUNTS] - reference to test credentials (e.g. "see CLAUDE.md Environment section")
  • [LOGIN_ROUTE] - e.g. /login, /sign-in, /auth

If [SITEMAP_OR_ROUTE_LIST] or [DEV_URL] is not filled, the skill reports an error and exits.

Scope boundary: this skill covers aesthetic quality only. Accessibility contrast (APCA measurement, WCAG contrast thresholds, axe-core scan) lives in /accessibility-audit - run it for any contrast or accessibility concern. Design-token compliance → /ui-audit. Viewport fit → /responsive-audit.

Step 0 - Mode + target detection

Parse $ARGUMENTS:

Mode (controls page roster breadth):

  • quick → 5 key pages only
  • full → all routes from sitemap, both themes
  • No mode keyword → standard - all routes from [SITEMAP_OR_ROUTE_LIST] (light + dark)
  • critique → deep-dive on a single target:page: (required). Skips scoring table; produces Gestalt + hierarchy diagnosis + concrete redesign proposals per Critical/Major finding. Must be paired with target:page:<route>.

Target (filters the page roster):

  • target:role:<role_name> → routes accessible to that role only
  • target:section:<name> → routes whose path contains <name>
  • No target → NO filter - use ALL pages from the mode roster per [SITEMAP_OR_ROUTE_LIST]

Target scoping - comparative vs independent checks (mandatory): some audit skills contain comparative checks that derive a project-wide convention by counting usage across the whole inventory - those must ignore the target: filter. This skill has none: every dimension is scored per page against the absolute anchors in DIMENSIONS.md, never relative to other pages.

  • Comparative checks - full-project by design; the target: filter does NOT apply to them: none. No check derives its pass/fail baseline by counting across the page inventory.
  • Independent checks - target-safe: all checks (Step 5a code inspection, Step 5c computed checks, dimensions V1-V7 and V9-V11) evaluate one page in isolation and safely honor the target: filter.
  • When a target: is given: apply the filter to the working roster for all steps. Step 7 (cross-page pattern analysis) then aggregates only the audited subset - its "systemic issues", "best-in-class", and "worst offenders" labels are scope-relative under a target, and the report MUST qualify them as such rather than present them as project-wide claims.

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.

visual-audit is a skill published in the GitHub repository marcoguillermaz/Tierward (4 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 5,167 tokens. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (recursive force delete). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
