Tired of AI-generated UIs that all look the same? White background, blue button, generic sans-serif, no soul?

You're not alone. That's why **Taste-Skill** hit **28.5K stars on GitHub** — and gained 2,000+ just today.

Taste-Skill is an "Anti-Slop Frontend Framework" for AI coding agents. It's a collection of **Agent Skills** that upgrade AI-built interfaces with:

The killer feature: **adjustable parameters** that act like taste knobs:

```
DESIGN_VARIANCE  = 0.7  # How wild the design gets (0-1)
MOTION_INTENSITY = 0.5  # Animation energy (0-1)
VISUAL_DENSITY   = 0.6  # Information density (0-1)
```

Want conservative? Set them low. Want wild? Crank them up.

Install via the `npx skills`

CLI:

```
npx skills add https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill
```

Works with: **Claude Code**, **Cursor**, **Codex**, **Amp**, **Copilot**, **Warp**, **VSCode**

| Category | Skills | What They Do |
|---|---|---|
| UI Enhancement | layout-skill, typography-skill, motion-skill | Core design upgrades |
| Image Gen | moodboard-skill, mobile-moodboard, brand-kit | Visual references for AI |
| Experimental V2 | design-skill, markdown-opus, dashboard-skill | Next-gen features |

**1. AI UI slop is real.** Everyone who's used Cursor or Claude Code has seen it: the generic, soulless look. Taste-Skill fixes that with zero extra effort.

**2. It's portable.** Install once, use across all your AI coding agents.

Taste-Skill isn't alone. Another trending project — **stop-slop** (7.1K⭐) — tackles the same problem for **prose** instead of UI. It removes AI tells from written content:

Together, these signal a shift: **the AI community demands quality, not just quantity.**

| Aspect | Rating | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Innovation | 5/5 | Parameterized taste is genius |
| Practicality | 4/5 | Directly useful for frontend devs |
| Setup | 4/5 | 5-minute install via npx |
| Vibe | 5/5 | "Anti-slop" branding is perfect |
