Enforces an opinionated UI baseline to prevent AI-generated interface slop.

## How to use

- `/baseline-ui`
  Apply these constraints to any UI work in this conversation.

- `/baseline-ui <file>`
  Review the file against all constraints below and output:
  - violations (quote the exact line/snippet)
  - why it matters (1 short sentence)
  - a concrete fix (code-level suggestion)

## Stack

- MUST use Tailwind CSS defaults unless custom values already exist or are explicitly requested
- MUST use `motion/react` (formerly `framer-motion`) when JavaScript animation is required

Does this skill automatically fix my code?

No. The skill reviews files and provides a list of violations, explanations, and code-level suggestions for the user to implement.

What animation libraries does this skill require?

It requires motion/react for JavaScript animations and suggests tw-animate-css for Tailwind CSS micro-animations.

Does this skill allow custom Tailwind CSS values?

Yes. It mandates Tailwind CSS defaults unless custom values already exist or are explicitly requested.
