ss-build: Design & UI for AI Agents | OpenAgentSkill

Overview

Build a screen with StyleSeed's composed design method — choose or compile an output grammar, apply a brand recipe plus domain/page/profile/lock constraints, then run the code and pixel gates before presenting.

Build with the composed StyleSeed method

Registry-first artifact boundary

When .styleseed/project.json and .styleseed/artifacts/index.json exist, resolve the requested artifact ID first, then read only .styleseed/bundles/<artifact-id>.md and .styleseed/manifests/<artifact-id>.json. Never fall back to the global legacy bundle for a registry project. Legacy projects may use .styleseed/effective-rules.md only when no registry exists.

The build method is the product. Score and screenshots are auxiliary evidence, not the source of design judgment.

Step 1 — Establish the rule set before code

If STYLESEED.md does not exist, run /ss-setup and write it before UI code. If the user supplied a visual reference that the selected built-in grammar does not capture, run /ss-reference first. Never reduce an unfamiliar reference to a palette swap.

Then invoke /ss-resolve (Claude Code) or $ss-resolve (Codex), or run its bundled scripts/resolve-context.mjs --project-root . --from-lock STYLESEED.md --agent <agent>. Read .styleseed/effective-rules.md and preserve .styleseed/manifest.json as the provenance record. Do not load llms-full.txt after resolution succeeds.

Step 2 — Compose, do not improvise

The compiled bundle already composes the authority order: core invariants → selected grammar → surface adapter → domain/page → brand recipe → optional profile → bounded lock → craft baseline. Use the manifest selection and source hashes to detect drift. Open a full source document only when the bundle points to a genuine ambiguity; do not reassemble the handbook ad hoc.

Before code, state the effective rule set in one line, for example:

operations-console × SaaS × dashboard × enterprise-workbench × swiss × locked brand tokens

Resolve conflicts by authority. A profile or lock cannot waive task fitness, coherence, or accessibility.

Step 3 — Build with design judgment

Make the grammar's user job and primary decision visible in the first viewport.
Establish one focal point; avoid equal-weight template grids.
Use the grammar's composition, density, type, color, surface, imagery/data, action, state, responsive, and motion contracts.
Use the recipe's containment, geometry, control, collection, and navigation morphology. Set data-styleseed-recipe="<id>" on the artifact root when using bundled pattern components.
Use product-specific content and evidence. Never copy the StyleSeed demo or a reference screen.
Implement loading, empty, error, focus, reduced-motion, and responsive behavior where relevant.

Step 4 — Code gate loop

Run /ss-score on the actual implementation. The score must name the effective rule set and check both core invariants and grammar-specific tells. Fix the highest-gain failures and re-score, up to roughly three passes, until ≥80. If it cannot pass, report the real blocker.

Step 5 — Pixel gate loop

For every renderable artifact, invoke /ss-verify: use the adapter renderer, inspect every required viewport/frame/page and relevant state, fix perceptual failures, and re-render. If no renderer is available, say the visual gate was skipped; never imply it passed.

Step 6 — Present with proof

Report:

effective rule set and why it fits;
final code score;
visual verification status and viewport;
material fixes made by the gates;
STYLESEED.md and any compiled grammar path.

Rules

Grammar before code; code gate after build; pixel gate last.
Output grammar is functional. Brand recipe is morphological. Aesthetic profile is optional. Neither substitutes for the grammar or permits a brand clone.
The primary action must remain identifiable; additional color is permitted only where the grammar gives it stable semantic or categorical meaning.
Re-read the lock and grammar on every UI change.

# Build with the composed StyleSeed method
## Registry-first artifact boundary

When `.styleseed/project.json` and `.styleseed/artifacts/index.json` exist, resolve the requested artifact ID first, then read only `.styleseed/bundles/<artifact-id>.md` and `.styleseed/manifests/<artifact-id>.json`. Never fall back to the global legacy bundle for a registry project. Legacy projects may use `.styleseed/effective-rules.md` only when no registry exists.

The build method is the product. Score and screenshots are auxiliary evidence, not the source
of design judgment.

## Step 1 — Establish the rule set before code

If `STYLESEED.md` does not exist, run `/ss-setup` and write it before UI code. If the user
supplied a visual reference that the selected built-in grammar does not capture, run
`/ss-reference` first. Never reduce an unfamiliar reference to a palette swap.

Then invoke `/ss-resolve` (Claude Code) or `$ss-resolve` (Codex), or run its bundled
`scripts/resolve-context.mjs --project-root . --from-lock STYLESEED.md --agent <agent>`.
Read `.styleseed/effective-rules.md` and preserve `.styleseed/manifest.json` as the provenance
record. Do not load `llms-full.txt` after resolution succeeds.

## Step 2 — Compose, do not improvise

The compiled bundle already composes the authority order: core invariants → selected grammar →
surface adapter → domain/page → brand recipe → optional profile → bounded lock → craft baseline. Use the
manifest selection and source hashes to detect drift. Open a full source document only when the
bundle points to a genuine ambiguity; do not reassemble the handbook ad hoc.

Before code, state the effective rule set in one line, for example:

```text
operations-console × SaaS × dashboard × enterprise-workbench × swiss × locked brand tokens
```

Resolve conflicts by authority. A profile or lock cannot waive task fitness, coherence, or
accessibility.

## Step 3 — Build with design judgment

- Make the grammar's user job and primary decision visible in the first viewport.
- Establish one focal point; avoid equal-weight template grids.
- Use the grammar's composition, density, type, color, surface, imagery/data, action, state,
responsive, and motion contracts.
- Use the recipe's containment, geometry, control, collection, and navigation morphology.
Set `data-styleseed-recipe="<id>"` on the artifact root when using bundled pattern components.
- Use product-specific content and evidence. Never copy the StyleSeed demo or a reference screen.
- Implement loading, empty, error, focus, reduced-motion, and responsive behavior where relevant.

## Step 4 — Code gate loop

Run `/ss-score` on the actual implementation. The score must name the effective rule set and
check both core invariants and grammar-specific tells. Fix the highest-gain failures and
re-score, up to roughly three passes, until ≥80. If it cannot pass, report the real blocker.

## Step 5 — Pixel gate loop

For every renderable artifact, invoke `/ss-verify`: use the adapter renderer, inspect every
required viewport/frame/page and relevant state, fix perceptual failures, and re-render. If no renderer
is available, say the visual gate was skipped; never imply it passed.

## Step 6 — Present with proof

Report:

- effective rule set and why it fits;
- final code score;
- visual verification status and viewport;
- material fixes made by the gates;
- `STYLESEED.md` and any compiled grammar path.

## Rules

- Grammar before code; code gate after build; pixel gate last.
- Output grammar is functional. Brand recipe is morphological. Aesthetic profile is optional.
Neither substitutes for the grammar or permits a brand clone.
- The primary action must remain identifiable; additional color is permitted only where the
grammar gives it stable semantic or categorical meaning.
- Re-read the lock and grammar on every UI change.

Review the source

Skill source recorded

Skill instructions are recorded. This is not a runtime test, safety guarantee or compatibility certification.

Review before install: Avoid automatic install

Potential broker, wallet, exchange, or real-money execution surface; sandbox and explicit approval are required
This skill may touch real-money trading, broker, wallet, or exchange operations; use only in a sandbox with explicit approval.
Quality score needs review

Open full audit

Listed tools are metadata hints, not tested compatibility. Agent prompts are suggested handoffs.

Start with one small task

1Read the source. Confirm the input, expected output, dependencies and permissions.
2Ask your agent for a plan. Approve setup and any costs before running a small isolated test.
3Check the output and changed files. Report only what actually ran; keep the source revision for reproduction.

Check the source for dependencies, API keys and third-party costs. A public repository does not mean every service is free.
