Framer UI Skills

Opinionated constraints for building Framer-style interfaces with AI agents.

When to Apply

Reference these guidelines when:

• Building dark-mode interfaces

• Creating Framer-inspired design systems

• Implementing UIs with Inter font and 4px grid

Colors

• MUST use dark backgrounds (lightness < 20) for primary surfaces - detected lightness: 0

• MUST use #000000 as page background (surface-base )

• SHOULD reduce color palette (currently 22 colors detected)

• MUST maintain text contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 for accessibility

Semantic Tokens

Token HEX RGB Usage

surface-base

#000000 rgb(0,0,0) Page background

surface-raised

#141415 rgb(20,20,21) Cards, modals, raised surfaces

surface-overlay

#F8F8F1 rgb(248,248,241) Overlays, tooltips, dropdowns

text-primary

#89786E rgb(137,120,110) Headings, body text

text-2

#D8AD9D rgb(216,173,157) Additional text

text-tertiary

#D1CFD0 rgb(209,207,208) Additional text

border-default

#494453 rgb(73,68,83) Subtle borders, dividers

destructive

#D8AD9D rgb(216,173,157) Error states, delete actions

warning

#F8F8F1 rgb(248,248,241) Warning states, cautions

Typography

• MUST use Inter as primary font family

• SHOULD use single font family for consistency

• MUST use 93px / 700 for primary headings

• MUST use 23px / 500 for body text

• SHOULD reduce font weights (currently 4 detected)

• MUST use text-balance for headings and text-pretty for body text

• SHOULD use tabular-nums for numeric data

• NEVER modify letter-spacing unless explicitly requested

Typography Reference

Font Families:

• Inter (used 62x)

Font Sizes: 3px, 4px, 5px, 6px, 7px, 8px, 9px, 11px, 13px, 14px, 16px, 18px, 20px, 22px, 23px, 93px

Spacing

• MUST use 4px grid for spacing

• SHOULD use spacing from scale: 1px, 2px, 3px, 4px, 5px, 6px, 8px, 9px

• SHOULD use 2px 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: 1px, 2px, 3px, 4px, 7px, 8px, 15px, 17px

• SHOULD limit border widths to: 1px, 2px

• 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: 1px, 2px, 3px, 4px, 7px, 8px, 15px, 17px

Layout

• MUST design for 1920px base viewport width

• SHOULD use consistent element widths: 22px, 21px, 43px, 34px, 10px

• SHOULD maintain text-heavy layout with clear hierarchy

• NEVER use h-screen , use h-dvh for full viewport height

• MUST respect safe-area-inset for fixed elements

• SHOULD use size-* for square elements instead of w-*

• h-*

Detected Layout Patterns

• Main Content: width: 1920px, height: 1080px

• Main Content: width: 1920px, height: 755px

• Header: height: 72px

Components

Buttons

Variant Background Text Border Height Radius

Ghost transparent #4D4E4C none

Interactive States

Focus

• MUST use 2px outline with accent color (#5E6AD2 )

• MUST use 2px outline-offset

• NEVER remove focus indicators

Hover

• Buttons (primary): lighten background by 10%

• Buttons (secondary): use #141415 background

• List items: use #141415 background

Disabled

• MUST use opacity: 0.5

• MUST use cursor: not-allowed

Interaction

• MUST use an AlertDialog for destructive or irreversible actions

• SHOULD use structural skeletons for loading states

• MUST show errors next to where the action happens

• NEVER block paste in input or textarea elements

• MUST add an aria-label to 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-out on entrance animations

• NEVER exceed 200ms for interaction feedback

• SHOULD respect prefers-reduced-motion

Performance

• NEVER animate large blur() or backdrop-filter surfaces

• NEVER apply will-change outside an active animation

• NEVER use useEffect for anything that can be expressed as render logic
