Vibe UI

Vibe UI is a DESIGN.md workflow skill for web UI work. It helps choose an inspired visual style, apply its DESIGN.md, generate page-specific build prompts, and review generated code for design consistency.

Vibe Gate 2.0 is the default loop for visual work: read the brief, lock the style and recipe, generate with hidden design constraints, then report/critique/polish after implementation.

Included styles are inspired by publicly visible UI patterns. Do not describe them as official brand systems.

Naming rule: Vibe UI-owned workflow features should use Vibe UI names such as Vibe Gate. Upstream names are used only for attribution, source filters, and resource ids.

Workflow

  • For user-facing UI work, run read "<brief>" before implementation. It writes .vibe-ui/brief-read.json and .vibe-ui/product-context.json with audience, buyer anxiety, register, dials, proof strategy, and section strategy.
  • If the user names a style, run use <design_id> in the project root to write DESIGN.md, DESIGN.generated.md, and .vibe-ui/current-design.json.
  • If the user has not chosen a style, run recommend "<goal>" or use the recommendation from read. Use built-in curated styles by default; add --source open-design when they want the broader bundled source library.
  • Use namespaced source ids such as open-design:linear-app, open-design:revolut, or open-design:airbnb.
  • If the user asks for a page pattern, run template <template_id> or generate <page_type> --template <template_id>.
  • If the user asks for a page that should feel "like" a known style, run like <design_id> [page_type] for a brand-safe prompt.
  • If the user wants to browse or compare styles visually, run browse --source all to generate a local static browser.
  • Before generating or editing a page, run workflow <page_type> --design <design_id> --template <template_id> for the recommended Vibe UI execution chain.
  • Run invariants <design_id> and brief-check <page_type> --design <design_id> when the task is visual or user-facing. brief-check writes .vibe-ui/vibe-gate-contract.json with Design Read, dials, page preflight, and anti-pattern watchlist.
  • Run generate <page_type> and follow the output together with the project's existing stack and components.
  • After implementation, run check <file_or_directory> or report <file_or_directory>. If the report is not Ready or the UI still feels generic, run critique <target> and then use polish <target> to produce a repair prompt.

Design Library

  • registry.json contains 18 high-confidence curated built-in styles.
  • resource/open-design-systems.json bundles 150 upstream DESIGN.md systems as one offline resource.
  • resource/open-design-template-index.json indexes 111 upstream design-templates mirrored through Liuwei1125/vibe-ui-resources.
  • resource/open-design-template-recipes.json contains Vibe UI template recipes distilled from upstream source patterns, including commerce, launch, pricing, waitlist, docs, dashboard, kanban, mobile, onboarding, portfolio, and SaaS recipes.
  • resource/open-design-template-sources.json contains the full template source bundle for offline-full packaging.
  • resource/resources-sync-manifest.json records the resource mirror source commit, counts, and hashes.
  • resource/open-design-attribution.md records upstream license and provenance notes.
  • resource/ui-anti-patterns.json contains the Vibe Gate 2.0 watchlist used by brief-check, check, report, critique, and polish.

Default curated styles include linear, vercel, stripe, apple, cursor, openai, notion, raycast, mintlify, framer, airbnb, shopify, feishu, doubao, xiaohongshu, wechat-reading, slack, and figma.

Guardrails

  • Treat DESIGN.md as the source of truth for colors, typography, spacing, radius, shadows, layout rhythm, density, and interaction style.
  • Do not copy real logos, trademarks, proprietary assets, or official brand claims from inspiration sources.
  • Keep Design Read, dials, and internal scaffold text in .vibe-ui JSON, reports, prompts, or comments; do not render them in production UI.
  • Add stable data-od-id values to top-level generated sections when using source-backed recipes.
  • Avoid default LLM indigo, emoji-as-icon decoration, invented metrics, filler copy, arbitrary gradients, heavy glass, and unsupported shadows unless the selected DESIGN.md explicitly allows them.
  • Use Vibe Gate as the default execution contract: read interprets the brief, workflow shows the full chain, invariants states what must not drift, brief-check records materials and anti-patterns before implementation, generate carries the hidden Design Read constraints, and report/critique/polish close the revision loop after implementation.
  • The static checker is a first-pass review. Still run the project tests and inspect the rendered UI for frontend work.
