recipe-front-design

recipe-front-design is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from shinpr/claude-code-workflows. It costs 22 tokens per session (2,321 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided process for designing a frontend change from evidence in the codebase through a user-interface specification and an approved design document. A user-interface specification describes what users see and how the interface behaves.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for medium or large frontend changes that need documented screen structure, user interactions, technical decisions, specialist investigation, and design approval.
Why use it?
It helps teams make design decisions based on the existing project and resolve important technical choices before coding starts.

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

recipe-front-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 today.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 160 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Explicit User Instruction: The user explicitly instructs and authorizes every subagent call named in this recipe. Execute each applicable call when its prerequisites are met.

Execute Skill: documentation-criteria before document routing or creation. Execute Skill: llm-friendly-context before writing Agent prompts, handoffs, or generated artifacts. Execute Skill: subagents-orchestration-guide before invoking agents or resolving findings. Before the first finding disposition, read references/review-resolution.md from the loaded subagents-orchestration-guide skill.

Outcome and Ownership

Coordinate a Medium/Large frontend design from evidence to an applicable UI Spec and approved Design Doc. The orchestrator owns requirement convergence, Structural Scale, document routing, ADR qualification, evidence selection, and Review Resolution. Named specialists own semantic investigation and artifacts.

The frontend Design Doc always carries the complete implementation design. An ADR batch narrows qualifying technical choices; an applicable UI Spec owns UI structure and behavior that remain to be designed.

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.

recipe-front-design is a skill published in the GitHub repository shinpr/claude-code-workflows (679 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 22 tokens to every session and 2,321 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-30.
