   • Global: grep -q "^das:" ~/.agents/skills/design-auditor/SKILL.md 2>/dev/null && echo "pointer" || echo "installed"
   • Project: grep -q "^das:" .agents/skills/design-auditor/SKILL.md 2>/dev/null && echo "pointer" || echo "installed"
   • No das: block → full skill installed, invoke it and proceed
   • das: block present → go to step 2

2. Detect scope, then install:

What it does

Comprehensive design audit skill that evaluates designs across 19 professional categories: typography, color/contrast, spacing, visual hierarchy, consistency, WCAG accessibility, forms, motion/animation, dark mode, responsive design, loading states, empty states, error states, microcopy, i18n/RTL support, elevation/shadows, iconography, navigation, design tokens, ethical design and dark patterns, and Nielsen heuristics. Produces a 0-100 score with issues ranked by severity so the most impactful problems surface first.

When NOT to use

• Accessibility-only audits — use fixing-accessibility for a focused WCAG pass
• WCAG-specific compliance documentation — use wcag-audit-patterns
