# Oil UI

> Interface design for your agent: explore distinct directions side by side, pick one, then refine it against real screenshots.

Oil UI is an open-source interface design skill by oil-oil. It explores a few genuinely different design directions for a website, app, dashboard or component, puts them side by side so you can choose, then refines the one you pick against real screenshots.

How it designs
- Names the product category and studies a few peers with distinctive styles before drawing anything
- Turns words like "premium" or "clean" into concrete choices: typefaces, white space and how much of the page uses colour
- Writes three distinct directions first, then asks whether to build one or compare all three as first screens
- Puts candidates on one comparison page with desktop and mobile sizes; you click Select on the one you like
- Checks finished pages in screenshots at desktop and mobile sizes, and can bring in a reviewer who hasn't seen the work in progress
- Ends with a round of subtraction: one focal point per page

What you can ask for
- New designs from a blank start
- Polish using a project's existing design guidelines
- A review that explains what to change and leaves files untouched
- A recreation of a page from a screenshot, with a mobile layout

How it installs
- Run npx skills add oil-oil/oil-ui. It's ready right after install, with nothing to configure.
- Working files, screenshots and media caches go in a .oil-ui folder in your project. Final code is written back to your project, following its conventions.

Good to know
- The skill's instructions are written in Chinese; it replies in the language you use.
- Each time it runs it checks ui.oiloil.org for a newer version (at most every 10 minutes), uploads nothing from your project and updates only when you ask. It needs Python 3 for this; set OIL_NO_UPDATE_CHECK=1 to turn it off.
- An optional image script uses paid oiloil image credits. The core workflow doesn't need it.
- A paid Oil UI Pro edition adds usability, existing-project and polish work. Don't install both, since they compete for the same requests.
