stitch-taste-design

stitch-taste-design is a skill for Codex from PracticalSwan/agent-skills. It costs 35 tokens per session (1,205 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of design instructions for Google Stitch projects. It defines choices for typography, color, layout, motion, responsive behavior, and styles to avoid.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when shaping the look and behavior of a Stitch-based product, including its visual mood, component rules, responsive layouts, and motion.
Why use it?
It helps turn a basic DESIGN.md into a consistent visual direction instead of leaving design decisions vague or generic.

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

stitch-taste-design 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 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.

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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 88 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Stitch Taste Design

This skill is a catalog-normalized import from https://github.com/google-labs-code/stitch-skills at commit 7b53207b94e62911777d53d4238b5f8c88c2b519, source path plugins/stitch-utilities/skills/taste-design. The upstream control file was corrected for this workspace: the verified Stitch MCP surface here is design-system oriented, so screen lookup, screen generation, and screen editing tools must be used only when the current host explicitly exposes them.

When to Use This Skill

  • Use when a Stitch DESIGN.md needs a stronger design-quality point of view rather than token extraction.
  • The task involves Google Stitch project IDs, .stitch/ artifacts, DESIGN.md files, Stitch exports, or Stitch-specific validation.
  • The broader stitch-design router points here as the narrowest workflow.

Workflow

  1. Clarify product type, audience, density, motion, brand constraints, and forbidden aesthetics.
  2. Define atmosphere, palette, typography, component behavior, layout, responsive rules, motion, and anti-patterns.
  3. Use exact values only when chosen or derived intentionally.
  4. Avoid invented metrics, fake dashboards, decorative cliches, and data claims the user did not provide.
  5. Write DESIGN.md language that Stitch can use directly.
  6. Optionally hand off to stitch-manage-design-system to upload after approval.

Local Assets

  • examples/, resources/, references/, or reference/ are upstream support material when present. Treat SKILL.md as the source of truth if a support file mentions an unavailable MCP tool.
  • scripts/ are optional helpers. On Windows, prefer PowerShell or Node equivalents unless Git Bash or WSL is actually available.
  • Keep generated .stitch/ files out of commits unless the user explicitly wants them as durable examples.

Corrected Stitch MCP Surface

Verified in this workspace on 2026-06-15: create_project, upload_design_md, create_design_system_from_design_md, list_design_systems, and apply_design_system. This 2026-07-29 source refresh did not re-verify a broader live MCP surface. Do not claim list_projects, list_screens, get_project, get_screen, generate_screen_from_text, edit_screens, or generate_variants were used unless the current host exposes those exact tools in the active tool list.

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.
