When to Use
Use this skill when:
- Editing `styles.css`
- Creating new dashboard sections or states
- Refining layout, spacing, typography, or color use
---
Visual Rules
1. The dashboard must feel like Engram, not a generic SaaS admin. 2. Prefer strong hierarchy, fewer containers, and clearer breathing room. 3. Use the TUI-inspired palette and mono/display accents intentionally. 4. Format machine timestamps and raw identifiers into human-scannable UI. 5. Decorative framing must never make content harder to read.
---
Density Rules
- Avoid box-inside-box repetition unless it clarifies information grouping.
- Important text must never touch borders or feel cramped.
- Metrics should read instantly.
- Tables should stay clean, aligned, and visually quieter than hero areas.
