critique

Invoke the critique skill on a page, component, or feature. It evaluates the design across 10 dimensions including visual hierarchy, cognitive load, and accessibility, then scores Nielsen's 10 heuristics and returns severity-tagged issues with concrete fixes.

The critique scores all 10 of Nielsen's usability heuristics on a 0-4 scale, including visibility of system status, error prevention, consistency, and aesthetic minimalism. The total out of 40 maps to rating bands from Critical to Excellent.

The skill selects 2-3 relevant personas from five archetypes (power user, first-timer, accessibility-dependent, stress tester, mobile user) based on the interface type. It walks through the primary user action as each persona and reports specific red flags with exact failing elements.

Yes, AI slop detection is the first and most critical check. It flags common AI-generated tells such as gradient text, glassmorphism, dark mode with glowing accents, generic fonts, and identical card grids.

The skill asks targeted follow-up questions about priorities, tone, and scope, then produces a prioritized action plan mapping each issue to a specific remediation command like /polish, /clarify, or /normalize.
