This skill implements Lattice's UI design system, enforcing light mode, Inter font, and a 4px grid for consistent interface development. It solves the problem of maintaining visual coherence with Lattice's aesthetic by defining strict color, typography, and spacing rules. Use it when building interfaces requiring Lattice's specific design language, particularly for light-themed applications prioritizing accessibility and minimalism.
Lattice UI Skills
Opinionated constraints for building Lattice-style interfaces with AI agents.
When to Apply
Reference these guidelines when:
- Building light-mode interfaces
- Creating Lattice-inspired design systems
- Implementing UIs with Inter font and 4px grid
Colors
- SHOULD use light backgrounds for primary surfaces
- MUST use
#FEFDFCas page background (surface-base) - MUST use
#26B177for primary actions and focus states (accent) - SHOULD reduce color palette (currently 37 colors detected)
- MUST maintain text contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 for accessibility

Typography
- MUST use
Interas primary font family - SHOULD use single font family for consistency
- MUST use
71px/700for primary headings - MUST use
40px/700for body text - SHOULD reduce font weights (currently 6 detected)
- MUST use
text-balancefor headings andtext-prettyfor body text - SHOULD use
tabular-numsfor numeric data - NEVER modify letter-spacing unless explicitly requested

Spacing
- MUST use 4px grid for spacing
- SHOULD use spacing from scale: 1px, 2px, 3px, 4px, 5px, 6px, 7px, 8px
- SHOULD use 1px as default gap between elements
- NEVER use arbitrary spacing values (use design scale)
- SHOULD maintain consistent padding within containers
Borders
- MUST use border-radius from scale: 0px, 1px, 2px, 3px, 4px, 5px, 6px, 7px, 8px, 9px, 10px, 12px, 13px, 16px, 18px, 19px, 56px, 63px
- SHOULD use 56px+ radius for pill-shaped elements
- SHOULD limit border widths to: 1px, 2px, 3px, 4px
- SHOULD use 4px as default border-radius
- NEVER use arbitrary border-radius values (use design scale)
- SHOULD use subtle borders (1px) for element separation
Border Radius Reference
Scale: 0px, 1px, 2px, 3px, 4px, 5px, 6px, 7px, 8px, 9px, 10px, 12px, 13px, 16px, 18px, 19px, 56px, 63px
Layout
- MUST design for 1920px base viewport width
- SHOULD use consistent element widths: 6px, 15px, 7px, 14px, 474px
- NEVER use
h-screen, useh-dvhfor full viewport height - MUST respect
safe-area-insetfor fixed elements - SHOULD use
size-*for square elements instead ofw-*+h-*
Detected Layout Patterns
- Main Content: width: 1920px, height: 918px
- Header: height: 47px
Components

- MUST use
2pxoutline with accent color (#26B177) - MUST use
2pxoutline-offset - NEVER remove focus indicators
Hover
- Buttons (primary): lighten background by 10%

#DDFCDAbackground - List items: use
#DDFCDAbackground
Disabled
- MUST use
opacity: 0.5 - MUST use
cursor: not-allowed
Interaction
- MUST use an
AlertDialogfor destructive or irreversible actions - SHOULD use structural skeletons for loading states
- MUST show errors next to where the action happens
- NEVER block paste in
inputortextareaelements - MUST add an
aria-labelto icon-only buttons
Animation
- NEVER add animation unless it is explicitly requested
- MUST animate only compositor props (
transform,opacity) - NEVER animate layout properties (
width,height,top,left,margin,padding) - SHOULD use
ease-outon entrance animations - NEVER exceed
200msfor interaction feedback - SHOULD respect
prefers-reduced-motion
Performance
- NEVER animate large
blur()orbackdrop-filtersurfaces - NEVER apply
will-changeoutside an active animation - NEVER use
useEffectfor anything that can be expressed as render logic
