Skill: Design Review

Run a structured, scored review.

Steps

1. Read `workflows/design-review.md` (rubric, scoring guide, Nielsen heuristics, process). 2. Gather context: the screen(s)/flow, target users, platform, constraints. 3. Score the 6 dimensions (Visual Hierarchy 20%, Consistency 20%, Accessibility 20%, Usability 20%, Responsiveness 10%, Performance 10%); compute the weighted overall. 4. Run the accessibility lens with `accessibility/wcag-checklist.md`; use `scripts/contrast.py` for any color-pair doubts. 5. Check against the anti-slop tells in `taste/design-taste.md` (Banned Defaults checklist). 6. Apply Nielsen's 10 heuristics; flag violations by number.

Output

  • The 6-dimension scored table + overall score.
  • A prioritized findings table: # · Severity (Critical → Major → Minor → Enhancement) · Finding · Recommendation.
  • Concrete, token-referenced fixes.
