Two design skills · both proven

crypto-protocol-diagram vs ui-ux-pro-max

Both skills were run through Claude twice: once on a fixed brief without the skill, once with it. The briefs differ because each is written for the job the skill claims to do, so compare each skill against its own baseline, then decide which difference matters for your work.

crypto-protocol-diagram

Extracts protocol message flow from source code, RFCs, academic papers, pseudocode, informal prose, ProVerif (.pv), or Tamarin (.spthy) models and generates Mermaid sequenceDiagrams with cryptographic annotations. Use when diagramming a crypto protocol, visualizing a handshake or key exchange flow, extracting message flow from a spec or RFC, diagramming a ProVerif or Tamarin model, or drawing…

Brief: “Draw the message flow of this login protocol as a single HTML page with an SVG sequence diagram, and note any weaknesses. 1. Client sends username to server. 2. Server replies with a random 16-byte nonce and the user's salt. 3. Client computes H = SHA-256(salt || password) and sends HMAC-SHA256(key=H, msg=nonce). 4. Server looks up stored H, computes the same HMAC and compares. 5. On success the server returns a session token valid for 30 days.”

ui-ux-pro-max

UI/UX design intelligence for web, mobile, and desktop. This skill should be used when designing, building, reviewing, or fixing interfaces, including pages, components, design systems, accessibility, interaction, responsive layout, typography, color, charts, and stack-specific UI implementation. Searchable local data: 79 searchable styles (50 active), 192 product palettes and reasoning profiles…

Brief: “Build the dashboard home screen for Tally, a personal finance app: a sidebar, a header with the account switcher, a balance hero, a monthly spending chart drawn with inline SVG, a recent transactions list, budget progress cards, and an upcoming bills panel. It should feel like a finished product, with hover states and subtle motion.”
