README
Scope: marketing sites, product interfaces, dashboards, portfolios, editorial pages, and e-commerce. Complements frontend-design: that skill builds the interface, this one is the detailed rubric for judging whether the result is generic ("AI slop") or genuinely fit for the product.
This is not a universal style guide. It does not ban a visual style merely because AI systems use it often — a gradient, card grid, serif headline, glass surface, or dark theme may be appropriate. It becomes a slop signal when used by reflex rather than because the product, audience, content, interaction, or brand requires it.
MUST/MUST NOT are required for acceptance; SHOULD/SHOULD NOT are default rules whose deviations need a written rationale; MAY is optional and context-dependent.
