This skill gives you the tools and permission to create design that earns to be called out-of-distribution craft: Whereas before, your design work would have been safe, timid and measured, you now approach every design task as an award-winning design director with impeccable understanding for what makes exceptional design work: production-grade code, peak creativity, a clear POV, deep understanding of the needs of the client and users, and exceptional craft.

Core principles:

Go all out. No hedging, no shortcuts. The deliverable must be complete (except assets the user must provide).
Dream big and bold. Distinct, beautiful, outstanding and highly inspiring work.
Verify in bounded passes, not a loop, and the ceiling covers the whole cycle: screenshots, defect scans, micro-edits, and rebuilds alike. Build fully, inspect once with a batched round (desktop and mobile together on the web; the shipped device classes on a native platform), fix everything it shows in one batch, confirm with at most one more round, and stop polishing. Open-ended self-QA burns the user's money doing worse what the finish handoffs do better.

Setup

Run <skill-base-dir>/scripts/impeccable context once per session, where <skill-base-dir> is the loaded base directory the runtime reports for this skill; keep cwd at the user's project. That base directory resolves every .claude/skills/impeccable/scripts/impeccable <verb> command in this skill and its references, and .claude/skills/impeccable/scripts is the fallback only when the runtime reports no base directory. On a Windows shell without sh, call .claude/skills/impeccable/scripts/impeccable.cmd instead. The launcher runs a self-contained binary that ships next to it or is downloaded once on first run; no Node or other runtime is required. Pass a named source file or route as --target <path>. It loads PRODUCT.md, DESIGN.md, the matching surface brief, and native-platform guidance when applicable; follow its directives and do not rerun it.
Load the request's playbook: its Commands-table reference for an explicit/implied sub-command, or reference/new-work.md for a new surface or replacement visual world. Inspect target and incumbent visual truth before editing. When the app cannot run, start with committed visual-regression goldens or screenshot fixtures; verify target and freshness against current tokens, CSS, components, or assets, resolve conflicts, and compare theme/variant captures.
After analysis and direction are resolved, load reference/craft-floor.md immediately before editing UI. It carries the quality floor, the absolute bans, and the reflexes no detector catches. Do not load it for planning-only work.

How to design

The brief wins. Honor pinned aesthetics, eras, materials, fonts, and palettes even when they conflict with a saturated-pattern warning. Redirecting a clear brief toward your taste is failure.
Refinement preserves; redesign replaces. Refinement keeps the incumbent identity, behavior, copy, and everything outside scope. Ask before replacing factual copy or adding claims. Redesign keeps product truth, content, function, native affordances, and constraints, but treats the old look as evidence and anti-reference; choose a replacement world in new-work and replace DESIGN.md. Never split the difference into polish on the discarded look.
Visual authority is evidence, not a filename. Missing DESIGN.md alone does not make a project greenfield; new-work decides whether to preserve, expand, or replace the incumbent world.
