Full Release Notes

tasteskill v2 is a new default skill, not an edit of the old one. It gives a coding agent an art direction, real pictures and a way to check its own work in a real browser.

## Install or upgrade

```bash
npx skills add https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill --skill "design-taste-frontend"
```

The install name did not change. Needs Node 22+ and Chrome, Edge or Chromium. Installs nothing, uses no API keys.

## What is new

- **A library instead of adjectives.** Built from a study of 247 curated sites: 20 directions, 48 hero compositions, 172 section layouts, 44 type systems, 56 palettes.
- **A script deals the direction.** `scripts/draw.mjs` deals three directions; the agent picks the one that can carry something only this client has.
- **Real pictures.** `scripts/assets.mjs` finds photographs, maps and footage of the subject's world in open collections, downloads them and records the credits.
- **A real-browser inspector.** `scripts/inspect.mjs` opens the page at 1440, 768 and 390 px and fails it on eyebrow labels, hairlines, gradients, resting shadows, headlines over two lines, empty screens and covered text.
- **A look-and-fix loop.** The agent critiques its own screenshots and fixes the top three problems, up to three rounds.

Across four test briefs built with and without the skill: 37 small labels and 249 hairline rules without it, none with it; no photographs without it, 48 with it.

## Also in this release

- Codex can install the collection as a plugin (`codex plugin marketplace add Leonxlnx/taste-skill`).
- The previous default stays available as `design-taste-frontend-v2-experimental`, and the original as `design-taste-frontend-v1`.
- README rewritten around v2, with before/after examples.
