Precision developer luxe — an agent design skill that fuses Benji Taylor's data-dense, tool-grade precision with Stripe's editorial, spacious premium feel, and Rauno Freiberg's interaction craft. The test it holds every surface to: "Does this feel like a Bloomberg terminal redesigned by a luxury brand?"
It ships as SKILL.md — a precise, opinionated design system with exact values (easings, rgba() surface stacks, single-accent derivation), a controls/dials/selectors spec, a "dashboards are programs" mandate, ambient-information and deduplication principles, and a self-audit Quality Gate — plus references/icons.tsx, a zero-dependency starter icon set (stroke-based, currentColor, with self-contained animated variants), and a semantic consolidation pattern library.
- Applies by default to all UI work — any frontend, component, page, dashboard, control, or chart, whether or not it's explicitly invoked.
- Hybrid calibration — asks the 4 Spectrum Router questions only for substantial or ambiguous builds; uses strong opinionated defaults for small, well-specified tasks.
- Max rigor — always ideates (10 ideas), plans the state before pixels, and runs the full Quality Gate before presenting.

The Benji layer is distilled to exact values from his live site (benji.org) and his open agentation codebase — tokens, easings, and component specs are reconciled to what he actually ships, not approximated.
