design-debt-audit

Catalogue stub — full skill: Owl-Listener/designer-skills

Decision tree

1. Is the full skill already installed?

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

2. Detect scope, then install:

   [ -e ~/.agents/skills/design-debt-audit ] && echo "global" || echo "project"
   

   Global:

   npx skills add Owl-Listener/designer-skills --skill design-debt-audit -g -y
   

   Project:

   npx skills add Owl-Listener/designer-skills --skill design-debt-audit -y

What it does

Owls design-debt-audit skill: a debt taxonomy (visual / structural / accessibility / documentation / implementation), a 5-step audit process, a Severity×Frequency/Effort prioritization score, and a living debt register. Turns "the UI feels inconsistent" into a triaged, remediable backlog. Nearby public skills cover register lifecycle or code debt but lack Owl’s taxonomy + scoring.

When NOT to use

• Codebase/technical debt (not design) → a code-quality skill
• Live accessibility violations → use wcag-audit-patterns
