What it does

When installed, the agent reviews a website, app, screenshot, mockup, or design code for decorative clutter typical of generated designs (stacked glows, repeated cards, filler copy, motion that gets in the way, invented social proof) and for real usability defects such as low contrast, overflow, broken controls, or hover-only information. It cites specific evidence for each issue, rates priority, and favours removing elements over redesigning them. The skill explicitly avoids guessing whether AI made the design and avoids imposing a new style.

Great for

  • Designers who want evidence-backed feedback on a page before a launch
  • Front-end developers reviewing a UI for clutter and accessibility problems
  • Teams wanting a short, prioritised cleanup list rather than a full redesign

Skip it if

  • Requests to generate a new look or brand direction, since the skill deliberately avoids redesigns and new fonts or palettes unless explicitly asked (it is an auditor, not a designer)
  • Judging whether a design was made by AI, which the skill says it will not attempt

Try asking

  • “Audit this landing page screenshot for AI-design slop and tell me what to remove first”
  • “Review the source code of our pricing page for decorative clutter and established UI defects”
  • “Give me a P0-P3 prioritised anti-slop review of this dashboard mockup”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Provide the rendered page at the relevant viewports and states (hover, mobile, reduced motion) so findings have real evidence.
  • For a full-site review, the skill points to a companion reference article (ARTICLE.md) in another skill folder; make sure it is installed alongside this one or findings may be less complete.
  • Ask for removals first; if you want replacement ideas, say so explicitly.
