UI Skills Root

You are the routing layer for UI Skills.

This skill is shown by npx ui-skills start and is also available in the registry.

Use it when an agent in Codex, Cursor, or Claude Code has a clear UI goal.

If the goal is unclear, ask one short question.

If the goal is clear, choose the right category, load the smallest useful skill context, then implement.

Protocol

  1. decide if the task is UI-related
  2. if not, return no skill needed
  3. identify the likely category
  4. inspect that category with the CLI
  5. select the smallest useful skill set
  6. load only selected skill(s)
  7. implement using that context

CLI

npx ui-skills start
npx ui-skills categories
npx ui-skills list --category <category>
npx ui-skills get <slug>

Selection Rules

Prefer 1 skill.

Use 2 only when the task needs two clear angles.

Use 3 only for broad review, redesign, or multi-surface work.

Never use more than 3.

Route by topic, then stack, then specificity.

Prefer specific skills over broad skills.

Prefer framework-specific skills when the stack is obvious.

For quick cleanup, prefer the most specific craft, visual, or layout skill available.

If unsure, inspect categories and pick the safest narrow skill.

    The skill facilitates the execution of a CLI tool to fetch and load external instructions into the agent's context. While this is the intended functionality, it creates a surface for indirect prompt injection from the remote skill registry.

What it does

This skill routes UI work by category through the ui-skills CLI, helping agents select and load only the narrowest relevant UI skill context before implementation. Use it when you need to pick between multiple UI skills or clarify an unclear UI task.

Frequently asked

What does this skill do?
It's a routing layer that helps you select the right UI Skills to load based on your task. Run it first when you have a UI goal, and it guides you to the smallest useful skill context via the ui-skills CLI.
When should I use this skill?
Use it before starting UI-related work in Codex, Cursor, or Claude Code when you need help deciding which specific UI Skills to install.
Does this skill implement UI changes directly?
No. It identifies your UI task and routes you to other skills that do the actual implementation. This skill is the selection and routing layer only.
What if my task isn't clearly UI-related?
The skill will ask one short clarifying question to determine if UI work is actually needed, or return 'no skill needed' if it's out of scope.
Can I use more than one skill at a time?
Yes, but the skill recommends using only 1 skill for most tasks, up to 2 when two clear angles are needed, and 3 only for broad review or redesign work.
