Ui Ux Pro Max

# UI/UX Pro Max - Design Intelligence

Searchable local UI/UX guidance: 79 searchable styles (50 active), 192 product palettes and exact reasoning profiles, 74 font pairings, 119 UX guidelines, 105 curated icons, 17 GSAP presets, 25 chart types, and 22 technology stacks.

## When to Apply

Use this Skill when the task involves **UI structure, visual design decisions, interaction patterns, or user experience quality control**: designing new pages, creating/refactoring UI components, choosing color/typography/spacing/layout systems, reviewing UI for UX/accessibility/consistency, implementing navigation/animation/responsive behavior, or improving perceived quality and usability.

Skip it for pure backend logic, API/database design, non-visual performance work, infrastructure/DevOps, or non-visual scripts — unless the task changes how something **looks, feels, moves, or is interacted with**.

## Rule Categories by Priority

*Follow priority 1→10 to decide which category to focus on first; use `--domain <Domain>` to query full details. The full rule text for every category lives in `references/quick-reference.md` — read it on demand rather than loading it every time.*

| Priority | Category | Impact | Domain | Key Checks (Must Have) | Anti-Patterns (Avoid) | |----------|----------|--------|--------|------------------------|------------------------| | 1 | Accessibility | CRITICAL | `ux` | Contrast 4.5:1, Alt text, Keyboard nav, Aria-labels | Removing focus rings, Icon-only buttons without labels | | 2 | Touch & Interaction | CRITICAL | `ux` | Min size 44×44px, 8px+ spacing, Loading feedback | Reliance on hover only, Instant state changes (0ms) | | 3 | Performance | HIGH | `ux` | WebP/AVIF, Lazy loading, Reserve space (CLS &lt; 0.1) | Layout thrashing, Cumulative Layout Shift | | 4 | Style Selection | HIGH | `style`, `product` | Match product type, Consistency, SVG icons (no emoji) | Mixing flat & skeuomorphic randomly, Emoji as icons | | 5 | Layout & Responsive | HIGH | `ux` | Mobile-first breakpoints, Viewport meta, No horizontal scroll | Horizontal scroll, Fixed px container widths, Disable zoom | | 6 | Typography & Color | MEDIUM | `typography`, `color` | Base 16px, Line-height 1.5, Semantic color tokens | Text &lt; 12px body, Gray-on-gray, Raw hex in components | | 7 | Animation | MEDIUM | `ux`, `gsap` | Context-aware timing, Motion conveys meaning, Spatial continuity | One duration for every transition, Animating width/height, No reduced-motion | | 8 | Forms & Feedback | MEDIUM | `ux` | Visible labels, Error near field, Helper text, Progressive disclosure | Placeholder-only label, Errors only at top, Overwhelm upfront | | 9 | Navigation Patterns | HIGH | `ux` | Predictable back, Bottom nav ≤5, Deep linking | Overloaded nav, Broken back behavior, No deep links | | 10 | Charts & Data | LOW | `chart` | Legends, Tooltips, Accessible colors | Relying on color alone to convey meaning |

For the full rule list per category (all 119 UX guidelines with rationale), read `references/quick-reference.md`. For app-specific polish rules (icons, touch feedback, dark mode contrast, safe areas) and the canonical pre-delivery checklist, read `references/pro-rules.md`.

## Running the search tool

The search script lives inside this skill's own directory, not the project directory. Always invoke it by its full path — do not assume a particular working directory:

```bash python "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/.claude/skills/ui-ux-pro-max/scripts/search.py" "<query>" --domain <domain> ```

If `python` is not found, try `python3`, then `py -3`. Requires Python 3.x, no external dependencies (see README for install instructions if Python is missing).

## Workflow

## Query Contract

Choose the smallest search mode that fits the request:

1. **New project/page or system-wide visual direction** → use `--design-system`. 2. **Targeted concern or component bug** → use one explicit `--domain`. 3. **Known implementation stack** → use `--stack`; add a separate domain search only for a distinct design concern.

Build each query around **one dominant intent**, using **2–5 meaningful terms** and one useful constraint such as product, platform, or interaction. Verify the returned domain/category, top result identity, and fit for the user's product and platform before applying it. **Retry once** with a narrower rewrite or explicit domain/stack when output is empty or off-topic. If that retry fails, state that no verified match was found and label any general guidance as a fallback. **Do not persist unverified output.**

For accessibility work, search one observable outcome at a time and use explicit accessibility outcome terms. Query the semantic outcome first (`"error summary validation" --domain ux`), then a component-specific domain if needed (`"decorative icon aria hidden" --domain icons` or `"icon button accessible label" --domain icons`), and only then the implementation stack. Other useful outcome queries include `"focus not obscured" --dom
