ui-only

ui-only is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from OutThisLife/brooklyn-skills. It costs 78 tokens per session (367 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for handling interface work in visual stages: change the UI, show it, and refine it until the user likes the result. UI means the parts people see and interact with, such as screens, layouts, and controls.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for web, desktop, or terminal-interface changes, redesigns, Figma implementations, and visual polish. It allows screenshots, a development server, and targeted checks needed to inspect the interface.
Why use it?
It prevents time being spent on type checks, linting, full test runs, commits, or pushes before the visual result is approved. It keeps iteration focused on appearance and interaction first.

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-only 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 10d 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.

What it actually says

UI Only

When you're changing how something looks or interacts: get the UI right first. Don't burn turns on tsc, lint, or commit until they say it's good.

Don't run yet

Until they like the UI (or explicitly say to clean/commit):

  • tsc / typecheck / npm run build as a finish step
  • eslint / prettier / biome
  • full test suites just to greenlight a commit
  • git commit / git push / opening the PR as done

Dev server, screenshots, and targeted runs needed to see or use the UI are fine. Don't start a dev server the user already has running — assume it's up unless told otherwise. Keep debug logging in place while something's still broken; remove it only once it works.

Do this instead

  1. Change the UI.
  2. Show it (or tell them how to look).
  3. Take feedback and iterate.
  4. When they say it's good / lgtm / clean it / commit it, then run checks, use clean, commit, and do whatever else the repo needs.

If you're not sure whether to keep iterating, ask.

Scope

Any UI surface (web, desktop, TUI). Skip for backend-only work. For primitives and tokens, also use ui-system.

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.
