Curated by Skill Harbor — the domain-expert skill that the already-published `jakubkrehel-skills-better-interface` orchestrator (lot 32) calls: a UI polish REFERENCE of concrete values, not generalities — concentric border radius (outer = inner + padding), optical over geometric alignment, shadows for elevation vs borders for structure, interruptible CSS transitions, ~100ms staggered entrances, contextual icon animations (scale 0.25→1, opacity 0→1, blur 4px→0px), 1px image outlines at low opacity, scale(0.96) on press (never below 0.95), no animations on initial page load, suppressed transitions on theme switch, transition-property naming, sparse `will-change`, icon stroke matched to text weight, one SVG recolored per state. Distinct from `jakubkrehel-make-interfaces-feel-better` (lot 33, different repo): feel-better is a CHECKLIST of interaction feel (hover/press/loading/empty states, micro-interactions, feedback); better-ui is the CONCRETE visual values (radii, shadows, outlines, easing curves) — polish you can measure. By @jakubkrehel, listed here with credit to its creator. Honest caveats: typography belongs to better-typography and accessibility to better-accessibility (referenced, not included); values are exact, not ranges to approximate. Skill Harbor never reviews the code, review it yourself before use.

Install
Prerequisites: a web project with CSS/Tailwind (see the repo README for context); optionally the better-interface orchestrator skill to call this one Install "Better UI" for me. Give my agent the UI polish reference: exact values for concentric border radius (outer = inner + padding), optical alignment, shadows-for-elevation vs borders-for-structure, interruptible transitions, ~100ms staggered entrances, contextual icon animations (scale 0.25→1, opacity 0→1, blur 4px→0px), 1px image outlines, scale(0.96) on press, no transitions on theme switch, will-change sparingly, icon stroke matched to text weight — exact values, never approximate Repository: https://github.com/jakubkrehel/skills/blob/main/skills/better-ui/SKILL.md 1. Fetch the SKILL.md file for the jakubkrehel-skills-better-ui skill from the repository into a temporary folder and summarize what it does in one or two sentences. 2. Safety check: review the SKILL.md for anything suspicious (unexpected network calls, shell commands, credential harvesting). This repo should contain zero secrets in code, credentials only via the secure vault, allowed hosts declared in the SKILL.md. Verify that holds here; STOP on any red flag and tell me. 3. Install it as a skill: copy SKILL.md into the agent's skills directory, in a folder named "jakubkrehel-skills-better-ui". 4. Verify with no network calls: frontmatter valid, files in place. 5. Report what was installed, where, and what I still need to do myself (e.g. check my CSS setup, apply the values to my components). GitHub is optional: if I have a GitHub account or the gh CLI, you may use it; otherwise public access is fine. Never require it unless it's in the prerequisites above. Rules: don't touch anything outside the temp folder and the install target. Never ask me to paste secrets in chat — credentials go through the secure vault or environment variables. If anything looks off, stop and ask me.
Questions
How do I install a build?
Every product page includes a copy-paste install prompt. Paste it into your Muse and it sets the build up for you — no manual configuration.
Where does my money go?
Straight to the seller. Skill Harbor never processes payments: checkout happens on the seller’s own page, usually Stripe.
What does the ✓ next to a creator’s name mean?
It means we confirmed the identity of the person behind the listing. It says nothing about the code itself — always check a build before installing it.
