ui-guidance

ui-guidance is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from n-n-code/n-n-code-skills. It costs 54 tokens per session (868 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Baseline guidance for routine graphical-interface and frontend changes that keep an existing design style.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for ordinary UI implementation or review, alongside relevant coding guidance; use stronger design guidance for major redesigns or deep UX reviews.
Why use it?
It helps make small visual, accessibility, interaction, spacing, label, and responsive changes consistently without treating every task as a redesign.

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-guidance 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 1mo 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/Frontend Guidance

This is a composable overlay, not a standalone workflow. Use alongside the matching principle skill (for example, coding-guidance-cpp) when the change touches UI or frontend code. Add project-core-dev only when repository-specific completion checks still need to be discovered or reported.

Choose the activity before applying the rules below:

  • for implementation, make only the requested UI changes and validate them
  • for review, inspect and report prioritized findings with evidence; do not edit files or require findings to be fixed unless the user also asks for remediation

Use this as the thin default overlay for ordinary UI work. If the task is redesign-heavy, frontend-polish heavy, or needs a stronger UX review checklist, prefer ui-design-guidance.

Routing examples:

  • add a small control that matches nearby components -> use this skill
  • fix spacing, labels, or responsive behavior within the existing visual language -> use this skill
  • redesign a page, introduce a new visual direction, or perform a UX-heavy release review -> use ui-design-guidance
  • product-security or permission-sensitive UI flows -> use security first when the main risk is trust, identity, or authorization rather than presentation; add security-identity-access when the security scope centers on identity, sessions, recovery, or tenant authorization

When to use

The repo includes graphical UI or web frontend code — web views, desktop UI, embedded panels, or rendering layers.

Not for

Terminal UIs belong to their framework's guidance, including coding-guidance-go-tui for Bubble Tea. Pure data visualization or plotting without product-interface work is also out of scope.

Rules

  • Preserve the existing design language unless the task explicitly calls for redesign. Do not introduce new color palettes, spacing systems, or component patterns without justification.
  • Accessibility, layout stability, and responsive behavior are part of done — not follow-up work.
  • UI changes must not bypass the repo's test and build hygiene.
  • Verify visual output manually or with snapshot tests if the repo supports them.
  • If the repo does not document breakpoints, design tokens, or visual test tooling, derive them from nearby UI code and record the fallback evidence in any implementation or review note you produce.

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.
