Best Claude skills for design
Design skills give your agent taste: spacing scales, type hierarchy, color systems and the judgement to say no to generic layouts. The best ones ship a vocabulary ("polish", "bolder", "critique") and reference files your agent reads only when it needs them, so they stay cheap on context.
