Design vs Testing · both proven

ui-ux-pro-max vs writing-guidelines

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. They are in different categories, so this is a choice of job, not a head-to-head on the same job.

ui-ux-pro-max

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.”

Brief: “Review and rewrite this getting-started page for Pipewell, a data pipeline CLI. The draft opens with two paragraphs of company history, mixes 'you' and 'the user', buries the install command in the fourth paragraph, uses passive voice throughout, and ends without a next step. Write the improved page as a single HTML document, followed by a short list of what you changed and why.”
