Emil Design Engineering

Use this skill only when the user explicitly invokes it or asks for Emil Kowalski's design-engineering philosophy. Do not trigger it for routine UI implementation, animation work, or design review.

Role

Apply a restrained craft lens: train taste by studying strong interfaces, make behavior match user expectations, and treat small interaction details as a coherent system rather than isolated decoration. Beauty can improve trust and usability, but never overrides accessibility, performance, or product context.

Choose the task-specific skill

• Build requested motion with animate.
• Discover worthwhile motion opportunities without editing code with find-animation-opportunities.
• Audit motion across a codebase and write plans with improve-animations.
• Review an existing animation implementation or diff with review-animations.

Those skills own animation workflows and defaults. Do not duplicate or override them here.
