UI Review

UI Review

Overview

Part of StyleSeed, this skill audits UI code against the Toss seed's conventions instead of reviewing it as generic frontend work. It focuses on design-token discipline, component ergonomics, accessibility, mobile readiness, typography, and spacing consistency.

When to Use

• Use when a component or page should follow the StyleSeed Toss design language
• Use when reviewing a UI-heavy PR for consistency and design-system violations
• Use when the output looks "mostly fine" but feels off in subtle ways
• Use when you need a structured review with concrete fixes

Review Checklist

Design Tokens

• no hardcoded hex colors when semantic tokens exist
• no improvised shadow values when tokenized shadows exist
• no arbitrary radius choices outside the system scale
• no random spacing values that break the seed rhythm

Component Conventions

• uses the project's class merge helper
• supports className extension when appropriate
• uses the agreed typing pattern
• avoids wrapper components that only forward one class string
• reuses existing primitives before inventing new ones

Accessibility

• touch targets large enough for mobile
• visible keyboard focus states
• labels and aria-* attributes where needed
• adequate color contrast
• reduced-motion respect for animation

Mobile UX

• no horizontal overflow
• safe-area handling where relevant
• readable text sizes
• thumb-friendly interaction spacing
• bottom nav or sticky actions do not obscure content

Typography and Spacing

• uses the system type hierarchy
• display and headings are not overly loose
• body text remains readable
• spacing follows the seed grid instead of arbitrary values

Output Format

Return:

1. A verdict: Pass, Needs Improvement, or Fail
2. A prioritized list of issues with file and line references when available
3. Concrete fixes for each issue
4. Any open questions where the design intent is ambiguous

Best Practices

• Review against the seed, not against personal taste
• Separate stylistic drift from real usability or accessibility bugs
• Prefer actionable diffs over abstract criticism
• Call out duplication when an existing component already solves the problem

Limitations

• Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
• Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
• Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
