reviewing-visual-regressions

reviewing-visual-regressions is a skill for Claude Code from Nolane-x/forge-os. It costs 41 tokens per session (1,477 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A UX-testing skill for reviewing whether a product’s appearance changes unexpectedly between versions. A visual regression is an unintended visual difference after a change.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review interface changes against the product definition and user workflows.
Why use it?
It helps catch layout, styling, or presentation changes that could damage the user experience.

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

reviewing-visual-regressions 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.

Reviewing Visual Regressions

Overview

This skill owns one bounded responsibility: reviewing visual regressions. Its focus is reviewing visual regressions within ux lifecycle boundaries. It converts declared inputs into typed artifacts and reproducible evidence without silently changing product scope.

Trigger

Activate only when the project is in one of these stages: ux-design, all contract preconditions pass, and the router identifies a missing output this skill can produce. Do not activate merely because the skill name resembles the user request.

Required Inputs

  • product-definition
  • user-workflows
  • Current gate result, open findings, artifact hashes, and invalidation state
  • Required tools: none
  • Optional tools: browser
  • Confirmed human decisions relevant to this scope

Method-Specific Protocol

  1. Define the exact decision, actors, objects, states, invariants, side effects, and non-goals owned by reviewing visual regressions.
  2. Build a decision table for normal, boundary, invalid, permission, failure, retry, recovery, concurrency, migration, and abuse conditions relevant to reviewing visual regressions.
  3. Apply reviewing visual regressions only to direct input artifacts; record assumptions, rejected alternatives, and any human decision still required.
  4. Trace the resulting contract to user value, security, reliability, cost, operability, and downstream consumers.
  5. Create reproducible checks that would fail if reviewing visual regressions were incomplete or implemented incorrectly.

Procedure

  1. Read user workflows, constraints, devices, and accessibility needs.
  2. Define critical journeys and failure recovery before visual styling.
  3. Define the exact decision, actors, objects, states, invariants, side effects, and non-goals owned by reviewing visual regressions.
  4. Build a decision table for normal, boundary, invalid, permission, failure, retry, recovery, concurrency, migration, and abuse conditions relevant to reviewing visual regressions.
  5. Apply reviewing visual regressions only to direct input artifacts; record assumptions, rejected alternatives, and any human decision still required.
  6. Trace the resulting contract to user value, security, reliability, cost, operability, and downstream consumers.
  7. Create reproducible checks that would fail if reviewing visual regressions were incomplete or implemented incorrectly.
  8. Specify interaction states, information hierarchy, and feedback.
  9. Create responsive and accessible behavior contracts.
  10. Validate critical flows against realistic user tasks.
  11. Publish UI evidence, open questions, and handoff contracts.

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.

reviewing-visual-regressions is a skill published in the GitHub repository Nolane-x/forge-os (10 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 1,477 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
