# Design (entry)

Use this skill when the user asks to build or style web UIs: components, pages, dashboards, landing pages, React/Vue/HTML-CSS layouts, or any frontend interface. Goal: distinctive, production-grade output that avoids generic AI aesthetics.

**Before reporting any design "done": render it and have a *separate* judge critique the image** (not the code, not self-grading) — see design-spatial §1. Blind generation can't see its own collisions; this applies to all design output, not just spatial work.

> **MANDATORY HORIZONTAL-OVERFLOW GATE — runs before ANY web UI is "done".**
> Measure `document.documentElement.scrollWidth - document.documentElement.clientWidth`
> at a **narrow width (~390px and ~1024px), this turn**, and confirm it's `0`. This
> bug is invisible at desktop width and re-appears every time a row (header, nav,
> toolbar) gains an item, so it ships repeatedly. Default to `flex-wrap:wrap` on
> header/toolbar rows + `body{overflow-x:clip}`, and **re-measure after adding any
> element to a horizontal row.** Full procedure + recurrence cases: design-spatial §4.
> If you haven't measured narrow, you are not done — don't claim it.
