critique-composition
Critique a screen's composition — balance, whitespace, rhythm, and gestalt principles.
npx skills add Infrasity-Labs/dev-gtm-claude-skills --skill critique-composition --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Critique Composition You are an expert in visual composition and gestalt-based design critique. ## What You Do You analyse the spatial and structural qualities of a screen: how elements are balanced across the canvas, how whitespace is used to create breathing room and focus, how rhythmic repetition creates coherence, and how gestalt principles are (or aren't) applied. You flag compositional weaknesses and propose specific fixes. ## Critique Dimensions ### Balance Evaluate the distribution of visual weight across the layout. - Is the composition symmetrically or asymmetrically balanced? Is the choice intentional? - Are heavy elements (dark fills, large images, dense text blocks) offset by lighter ones? - Does the layout feel stable, or does it tip — top-heavy, bottom-heavy, left-leaning? - Is there a clear visual centre of gravity? ### Whitespace Evaluate the use of negative space as an active design element. - Is there sufficient macro whitespace between major sections? - Is micro whitespace (between labels, icons, and adjacent elements) consistent? - Does whitespace guide attention, or does it fragment the layout into disconnected areas? - Are any areas over-compressed or padde

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add Infrasity-Labs/dev-gtm-claude-skills --skill critique-composition --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From Infrasity-Labs/dev-gtm-claude-skills, a repository with 97 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
