design-review

design-review is a skill for Claude Code from vasuag09/harness-claude. It costs 68 tokens per session (1,069 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review checklist for user-facing changes such as pages, screens, components, forms, emails, and command-line interfaces. It checks visual quality, accessibility basics, and signs of generic AI-generated design before a change is merged.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review a user interface against its design brief, assess the overall visual hierarchy, and report issues by severity before merging.
Why use it?
It catches confusing layouts, inaccessible interactions, and unfinished visual details that ordinary code or security checks may miss.

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

design-review 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 11d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 63 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/design-review — craft & UX gate

Goal: prove a user-facing change is crafted, not merely correct, before it merges. The design counterpart to /harness-claude:security-review — a conditional VERIFY gate that blocks on Blockers. It checks the build against the design brief from /harness-claude:design and the bar in references (skills/design/references/review-bar.md + ux-floor.md).

When to use

Only when the change touched a user-facing surface (a page, screen, component, form, email, CLI/TUI presentation). Internal/back-end changes skip — say so. Run it in parallel with /harness-claude:review and /harness-claude:security-review when the change is both UI- and security-sensitive.

Do this

  1. Scope & intent. Bound what's under review (the branch's UI diff, or a named surface). Read the /harness-claude:design brief if one exists, and the project's saved design-system note (e.g. .design/system.md) if present — review against the design's own intent, not a generic ideal. Apply the harness's review standard in references/review-bar.md.
  2. See the whole first (squint, before line-picking): does one thing lead, or is it a parking lot? Does it breathe, or a monotone grid? Does it look like this product? The worst slop is compositional. Squint the rendered output, not the source — serve it over http and screenshot (a headless browser usually blocks file://); a picture is worth 1000 tokens.
  3. Run the lenses independently (review-bar.md): Hierarchy · Type & color · Surfaces & depth · Composition & rhythm · States/polish/motion · Structure-reuse-content.
  4. Apply the floor (ux-floor.md): a11y §1 + touch §2 are hard gates — contrast 4.5:1, visible focus, keyboard nav, 44px targets, reduced-motion. Automated checks catch ~30%; the floor isn't met until you've manually exercised it — keyboard-only through the whole flow, a screen reader (VoiceOver/NVDA) over the key path, and 200%/400% zoom without breakage. Cite the specific WCAG success criterion per failure (e.g. 1.4.3 contrast, 2.1.1 keyboard, 2.4.7 focus-visible). A failure here is a Blocker, full stop.
  5. Score and filter. Tag each finding Blocker / Should-fix / Note. Cut false positives: taste, a bold choice working as intended, out-of-scope/untouched lines, anything system.md ratifies, lint/format concerns. A few high-conviction findings beat forty nitpicks.

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.
