# bencium-impact-designer Creates frontend interfaces with a clear visual direction.

It then presents 2–3 directions with trade-offs before producing working HTML, CSS, JS, React, or TypeScript code. It asks the agent to commit to one aesthetic concept and carry it through typography, colour, layout, and motion. Its listed directions include minimalism, editorial layouts, brutalism, retro-futurism, and technical UI. The skill advises against Arial and Inter, and suggests Motion for React when the library is available. That means project constraints should be clear upfront, because the workflow begins with context questions. ## Install ### Claude Code (native platform) 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add bencium/bencium-marketplace --skill bencium-impact-designer -a claude-code ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `~/.claude/skills/bencium-impact-designer/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/bencium-impact-designer/ ### Codex 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add bencium/bencium-marketplace --skill bencium-impact-designer -a codex ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.agents/skills/bencium-impact-designer/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/ ### Cursor 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add bencium/bencium-marketplace --skill bencium-impact-designer -a cursor ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.cursor/skills/bencium-impact-designer/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/ ### GitHub Copilot 1. **GitHub CLI** ```bash gh skill install bencium/bencium-marketplace bencium-impact-designer ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.github/skills/bencium-impact-designer/SKILL.md` ### Gemini CLI 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add bencium/bencium-marketplace --skill bencium-impact-designer -a gemini-cli ``` 2. **Platform CLI** ```bash gemini skills install https://github.com/bencium/bencium-marketplace --path bencium-impact-designer/skills/bencium-impact-designer ``` ### Windsurf (Devin Desktop) **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.devin/skills/bencium-impact-designer/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works ### OpenCode **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add bencium/bencium-marketplace --skill bencium-impact-designer -a opencode ``` ### Claude.ai **Claude.ai** - Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/bencium/bencium-marketplace/tree/HEAD/bencium-impact-designer/skills/bencium-impact-designer/SKILL.md ## When to use it - build a page around one visual concept - choose a UI direction before writing code - create a React component with deliberate typography - add CSS motion and micro-interactions - move a web interface away from generic styling ## Example prompts - Create a web app landing page and propose visual directions before writing the code. - Build a React dashboard component in a technical style and account for accessibility. - Design an editorial interface and implement it in working HTML, CSS, and JS. ## Source text · SKILL.md · MIT Below is the content of a third-party file.

BEGIN THIRD-PARTY FILE de4dea6e4ba1cab6 ```text --- name: bencium-impact-designer description: Create distinctive, production-grade frontend interfaces with high design quality. Use this skill when the user asks to build web components, pages, or applications. Generates creative, polished code that avoids generic AI aesthetics. Based on Anthropic's Frontend Designer Skill version: 1.2.0 --- # Innovative Designer for impact Create distinctive, production-grade frontend interfaces that avoid generic "AI slop" aesthetics. Implement real working code with exceptional attention to aesthetic details and creative choices. Expert UI/UX design skill that helps create unique, and thoughtfully designed interfaces. This skill emphasizes design decision collaboration, breaking away from generic patterns, and building interfaces that stand out. This skill emphasizes **bold creative commitment**, breaking away from generic patterns, and building interfaces that are visually striking and memorable while remaining functional. ## Core Philosophy **CRITICAL: Design Thinking Protocol** Before coding, **ASK to understand context**, then **COMMIT BOLDLY** to a distinctive direction: ### Questions to Ask First 1. **Purpose**: What problem does this interface solve? Who uses it? 2. **Tone**: What aesthetic extreme fits? (see Tone Options below) Use these for inspiration but design one that is true to the aesthetic direction. 3. **Constraints**: Technical requirements (framework, performance, accessibility)? 4. **Differentiation**: What makes this UNFORGETTABLE? What's the one thing someone will remember? **CRITICAL**: Choose a clear conceptual direction and execute it with precision. Bold maximalism and refined minimalism both work - the key is intentionality, not intensity. Then implement working code (HTML/CSS/JS, React, TypeScript, etc.) that is: - Production-grade and functional - Visually striking and memorable - Cohesive with a clear aesthetic point-of-view - Meticulously refined in every detail ### Tone Options (Pick an Extreme) Choose a clear aesthetic direction and execute with precision: - **Brutally minimal** - stripped to essence, bold typography, vast whitespace - **Retro-futuristic** - vintage meets sci-fi, nostalgic tech aesthetics - **Organic/natural** - soft edges, earthy colors, nature-inspired textures - **Editorial/magazine** - strong typography hierarchy, asymmetric layouts - **Brutalist/raw** - exposed structure, harsh contrasts, intentionally rough - **Art deco/geometric** - bold patterns, metallic accents, symmetric elegance - **Soft/pastel** - gentle gradients, muted tones, calming atmosphere - **Industrial/utilitarian** - functional, no-nonsense, mechanical precision • - Neo-Swiss Grid - rigorous grid, restrained palette, razor-sharp alignment, typographic clarity ``` END THIRD-PARTY FILE de4dea6e4ba1cab6 The third-party file has ended.
