Hallmark

Design skill preventing LLMs from generating generic, AI-looking web interfaces

Visit github.com ↗

Hallmark is an open-source design skill and rule set for AI coding assistants like Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex. It prevents models from defaulting to generic AI templates by applying macrostructures, 21 distinct themes, and 57 anti-slop test gates to ensure each generated site looks unique and intentional.

What it's for

  • Generate web interfaces with AI that avoid generic styling and clichéd layouts
  • Audit existing frontend code against AI design anti-patterns
  • Redesign an existing website while retaining copy, information architecture, and branding
  • Extract layout structure, typography pairings, and palettes from screenshots or URLs

Features

  • 21 distinct design themes such as Carnival, Lumen, Hum, and Cobalt
  • Custom mode to build made-to-measure layouts and palettes from scratch
  • 57 automated slop-test gates and pre-emit self-critique checks
  • Built-in audit command to produce punch lists of anti-patterns without modifying code
  • Design extraction command to study external sites and export portable design specifications
  • Native compatibility with Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex via agent skill files
