**Taste Skill supports twelve distinct design-system-oriented skills—including core UI languages such as `design-taste-frontend`, premium visual styles like `high-end-visual-design`, and workflow tools such as `redesign-existing-projects`—all installable via the `npx skills add` CLI.**

The open-source `Leonxlnx/taste-skill` repository hosts a family of **design systems supported by Taste Skill**, each implemented as a standalone skill under the `skills/` folder. Every skill defines its rules in a [`SKILL.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/SKILL.md) or [`DESIGN.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/DESIGN.md) file and registers with the CLI through front-matter metadata. The authoritative list appears in the **Skills** section of the repository README.


## Core UI Design Systems

These skills implement the primary “Taste” visual language and its direct stylistic variants.

### Taste Skill v2

**Taste Skill v2** is the default modern UI language. It provides a variance-adjustable design system with built-in motion, density controls, and anti-slop rules. The source definition lives at [`skills/taste-skill/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/skills/taste-skill/SKILL.md), and the CLI install name is `design-taste-frontend`.

```bash
npx skills add https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill --skill "design-taste-frontend"

```

### Taste Skill v1

**Taste Skill v1** preserves the original visual language for backward compatibility. Its rule set is defined in [`skills/taste-skill-v1/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/skills/taste-skill-v1/SKILL.md) and installs under the name `design-taste-frontend-v1`.

### GPT Taste

**GPT Taste** is a stricter variant geared toward GPT-style agents, enforcing higher layout variance and stronger GSAP animation direction. Inspect the rules in [`skills/gpt-tasteskill/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/skills/gpt-tasteskill/SKILL.md) and install it via `gpt-taste`.

### Soft Skill

**Soft Skill** delivers a premium, calm UI with generous whitespace, soft contrast, and spring-based motion. The specification resides in [`skills/soft-skill/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/skills/soft-skill/SKILL.md); the CLI name is `high-end-visual-design`.

### Minimalist Skill

**Minimalist Skill** applies an editorial-style aesthetic reminiscent of Notion or Linear, using restrained palettes and crisp structure. Its definition is at [`skills/minimalist-skill/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/skills/minimalist-skill/SKILL.md) and the install name is `minimalist-ui`.

### Brutalist Skill

**Brutalist Skill** offers an experimental, high-contrast “Swiss-type” design built from sharp geometry. The rules live in [`skills/brutalist-skill/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/skills/brutalist-skill/SKILL.md) and install as `industrial-brutalist-ui`.


## Workflow and Integration Skills

These skills audit, bridge, or transform existing projects rather than prescribing a single visual look.

### Redesign Skill

**Redesign Skill** provides a design-system-agnostic audit-and-fix workflow that can be applied to any existing UI. The source file is [`skills/redesign-skill/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/skills/redesign-skill/SKILL.md) and the install name is `redesign-existing-projects`.

### Stitch Skill

**Stitch Skill** supplies Google-Stitch-compatible rules and optionally exports a [`DESIGN.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/DESIGN.md) file for downstream tooling. Review [`skills/stitch-skill/DESIGN.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/skills/stitch-skill/DESIGN.md) and install via `stitch-design-taste`.

```bash
npx skills add https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill --skill "stitch-design-taste"

```

### Image-to-Code Skill

**Image-to-Code Skill** generates reference images first, then analyzes them to produce code that follows the chosen design system. The pipeline is defined in [`skills/image-to-code-skill/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/skills/image-to-code-skill/SKILL.md) and installs as `image-to-code`.


## Asset Generation Skills

These skills focus on image-only outputs and brand-board creation.

### Image-Gen Frontend Web

**Image-Gen Frontend Web** outputs web-style comps covering hero sections, landing layouts, typography, and spacing. The spec is at [`skills/imagegen-frontend-web/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/skills/imagegen-frontend-web/SKILL.md); the CLI name is `imagegen-frontend-web`.

### Image-Gen Frontend Mobile

**Image-Gen Frontend Mobile** creates mobile screen comps for iOS and Android. Its definition lives in [`skills/imagegen-frontend-mobile/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/skills/imagegen-frontend-mobile/SKILL.md) and installs via `imagegen-frontend-mobile`.

### Brand Kit

**Brand Kit** generates brand-board assets including logo direction, palette, and typography rules. The source file is [`skills/brandkit/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/skills/brandkit/SKILL.md) and the install name is `brandkit`.


## How to Install Any Design System

All design systems supported by Taste Skill use the same installation pattern. The `--skill` flag maps to the `name` field declared in each skill’s front-matter.

```bash

# Default modern UI

npx skills add https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill --skill "design-taste-frontend"

# Legacy v1 behavior

npx skills add https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill --skill "design-taste-frontend-v1"

# Premium soft UI

npx skills add https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill --skill "high-end-visual-design"

```

## Referencing SKILL.md Files in Prompts

You can bypass the CLI entirely by copying a skill definition into your project and referencing it directly in agent prompts. For example, to apply Google-Stitch rules without installing the skill globally, point the model to [`skills/stitch-skill/DESIGN.md`](https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill/blob/main/skills/stitch-skill/DESIGN.md):

```markdown
Please follow the design rules defined in `skills/stitch-skill/DESIGN.md` to build a landing page.

```

Each file listed above can be inspected directly in the GitHub source tree at `Leonxlnx/taste-skill`.
