How to find out why a color or spacing choice looks wrong with Refactoring UI Skill

Ask the Skill to explain the mechanism behind a design problem and point to the matching rule.

Who it is forA developer or product manager who sees a design that looks off, such as gray text on a colored banner, and wants the reason, not a guess.

The problemA common fix may be wrong, and the cause can be hidden by a context where the rule looks fine.

The outcomeA plain explanation of the mechanism and the rule reference, so the reader can decide on the change.

What you need first

  • Claude Code, or another AI coding assistant that can read files in the project
  • Git, to clone the repository
  • Python 3.9 or newer for the scripts (no third-party packages needed)
  • A web project with HTML, CSS, or a framework such as Tailwind, for the review and token steps

Steps

  1. Install the plugin with /plugin marketplace add edisonmbli/refactoring-ui-skill and /plugin install refactoring-ui.
  2. Describe the element and what looks wrong, and include a screenshot or the relevant CSS if you have it.
  3. Read the explanation, which covers the mechanism behind the rule and the rule reference.
  4. Apply the fix that matches the mechanism in your own tokens.

Prompt for your agent

Using the refactoring-ui skill from the edisonmbli/refactoring-ui-skill repo, explain why <element-description> looks wrong in <design-context>. Return the underlying mechanism and the matching rule number. Verify that the explanation names the mechanism, not only the symptom.

Caveat. The README says this Skill is an unofficial project, not a substitute for reading the book, and it has no affiliation with the book's authors.
