design-judge

A skill that judges any artifact — screenshot, component, block of copy — against my recorded taste, voice, and working rules, and returns a cited, severity-ranked critique. It carries a global rule catalog plus the current project's design brief, and hands the measurable checks to Raven rather than duplicating them.

Between my reviews, generated design drifts — toward the generic, the salesy, the almost-right. A judge that cites my recorded decisions holds the line while I'm not looking, and my corrections keep sharpening it.

It runs before I see generated design work and before anything visual ships. Its strongest property is restraint: false positives are the failure mode, so it prefers silence over a speculative nit. A pass is necessary, never sufficient — taste calls stay with my eyes.

The whole method is downloadable and adaptable — skills/design-judge/SKILL.md inside the zip. Seed it with your own rejected-work list; the judge is only as good as the decisions it cites.
