$npx -y skills add educlopez/ui-craft --skill delight

Installs into the current project.

Summary

Delight pass — adds one or two memorable micro-interactions (copy specificity, hover choreography, state transitions, one signature detail) without decoration or confetti. Use when the UI works but feels generic, or when the user says "make it feel special" / "add some personalit

8
9	Candidates, ordered by safety (start at the top):
10
11	1. Copy specificity — confirmation toasts name the thing ("3 members invited — Alex, Sam, Jordan", not "Invites sent"). Empty states with wit but no cringe ("Nothing here yet — add your first project" > "Oops! Looks like it's empty 😅").
12	2. Hover choreography — multi-property hover (transform + color + shadow) that moves together on one shared duration/easing. One card, not every card.
13	3. State transitions — optimistic UI + tiny success micro-animation (checkmark stroke draw, count-up on a number, subtle scale-and-settle on the updated row).
14	4. One signature detail — custom list markers tied to the domain, asymmetric column offset on a single section, scroll-linked progress that tracks something real (reading progress, form completion).
15
16	Never add:
17	- Bounce easing (`cubic-bezier(0.68, -0.55, 0.27, 1.55)`) — flagged in anti-slop.
18	- Confetti on mundane actions (file saved, field updated).
19	- Emoji spam or "🎉 SUCCESS!" in ALL CAPS.
20	- Idle float/bob/shimmer on elements that aren't waiting for anything.
21
22	Knob gating (MOTION_INTENSITY):
23	- `≤ 3` → copy-only delight. No animated delight. Candidate 1 only.
24	- `4-7` → copy + hover + state transitions (candidates 1-3).
25	- `8+` → all four, including the signature detail.
26
27	References to read: `references/motion.md` (Decision Ladder + interaction rules), `references/copy.md` (microcopy voice), `../examples/animation-storyboard.md` (if multi-stage).
