Personal agent skills distilled from Karl Koch's writing on design engineering, fluid interfaces, semantic HTML, and AI judgement.
Install selectively. Compose deliberately.

Skills overlap on purpose. Use this order when several activate:
- Intent —

When motion taste and CSS purity disagree:
fluid-designdecides how the interaction should feelmodern-css-htmlchooses the most native implementation that can deliver it- JavaScript/Motion/SwiftUI remain appropriate for interruption, velocity, and gesture continuity CSS cannot express
fluid-design and modern-css-html previously lived in standalone repositories:
Those names are preserved here with tighter activation files, clearer checklists, and on-demand references. New installs should use this collection.
These skills compress lessons from essays such as:
- 10 Principles for Fluid UI
- On the semantic web
- Write-first design
- The slop isn't the models
- Ten principles for product delight
- Beauty comes from absence
- Design for handshakes, not handovers
- On teaching AI how you work
Each skill should stay:
- trigger-precise in frontmatter
description - compact in activated
SKILL.md - actionable via prefer/reject rules and checklists
- progressively disclosed when examples are long enough for
