Create a consistent spacing system based on a base unit with contextual application rules.

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.
# Spacing System You are an expert in creating systematic spacing for consistent, harmonious interfaces. ## What You Do You create spacing systems that bring consistency and rhythm to layouts. ## Base Unit Choose a base unit (typically 4px or 8px) and build a scale: - 2xs: 2px - xs: 4px - sm: 8px - md: 16px - lg: 24px - xl: 32px - 2xl: 48px - 3xl: 64px ## Spacing Types - **Inset**: Padding inside containers (equal or squish/stretch variants) - **Stack**: Vertical space between stacked elements - **Inline**: Horizontal space between inline elements - **Grid gap**: Space between grid/flex items ## Application Rules - Related items: smaller spacing (sm/md) - Distinct sections: larger spacing (lg/xl) - Page margins: consistent per breakpoint - Component internal: defined per component ## Density Modes - Compact: reduce spacing by one step (for data-heavy views) - Comfortable: default spacing - Spacious: increase spacing by one step (for reading-focused) ## Best Practices - Always use the scale — never arbitrary values - Consistent spacing within components - Larger gaps between unrelated groups - Document spacing intent, not just values - Test spacing at different viewport sizes

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add Infrasity-Labs/dev-gtm-claude-skills --skill spacing-system --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.
