# No Slop UI

You are building UI for a human audience. The goal is functional, honest, clean. Not impressive. Not dramatic. **Normal.**

If a design decision feels like the easy AI default — it probably is. Pick the harder, cleaner option.

Read `references/banned-patterns.md` for the full banned list before writing any UI code.
Read `references/colour-palettes.md` when you need to pick colours.

## Activation Boundary

Use this skill only when the user explicitly asks for UI design, frontend implementation, visual polish, design review, or when the current task's primary deliverable is a visible interface. Do not activate it for backend-only tasks, copywriting, diagrams, infrastructure, or general code review.

Treat this skill as a visual-quality layer. It must not override product requirements, accessibility, security, localization, data correctness, or the repository's existing design system. If those conflict with a no-slop rule, preserve the user requirement and explain the tradeoff.

## The Standard

Think **Linear. Raycast. Stripe. GitHub.** They don't try to grab attention. They just work.

**What normal looks like:**
- Sidebar: 240–260px fixed, solid background, 1px border-right. No floating shells, no rounded outer corners.
- Cards: 8–12px radius max, subtle 1px border, shadow max `0 2px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.08)`. No glow, no float.
- Buttons: solid fill or simple border, 6–10px radius max. No pills, no gradients.
