Impeccable 4.1 is here:

core: -critique results more reliably prints in chat before asking you questions

  • the design hook nags less, and ignores can be recorded once
  • reduced-motion guidance restored

greenfield design:

  • switch between comps of your page/app before any code or skip mockups and go straight to code
  • steer ideation to be bolder or safer in the interactive question tool
  • mockups for new pages of an existing site/app stay more consistent
  • much better fallback for agents without image generation

native apps:

  • ios and android builds get reviewed against native conventions
  • polish collects native evidence instead of asking for browser screenshots
  • web-only checks stop firing on native code

platforms and setup:

  • windows: installs, the decision page, and the roll all work now
  • plugin installs: the four subagents actually load (they silently never did)
  • support for @NousResearch hermes agent and @antigravity

design issue detection:

  • no false low-contrast on gradient backgrounds, image backgrounds, or covered text
  • data-impeccable-ignore silences only the element you put it on
  • broken-image warnings stop firing on commented-out code
  • blade files show up in directory scans
  • paths with spaces or quotes stop breaking commands

live mode:

  • works on ddev, valet, and other non-localhost dev hosts
  • svelte variants render again (broke due to svelte upstream changes)
  • copy edits survive long pages

Impeccable: The missing design vocabulary for agents

Source: https://impeccable.style/

Detects and removes AI slop.

59 checks catch the defaults agents keep reaching for before they become your design.

23 commands give you a shared design vocabulary with your AI. Each names one kind of intervention:/typesetfor type,/distillfor complexity,/auditfor production quality. Pick any to see it in action, orbrowse the full reference →

Give direction in chat. Refine the result on the page.

Every change lands in your source.

Ask a model to be creative and it builds its favorite idea, every run. So Impeccable deals challengers: human-reviewed worlds, each a complete graphic system with laws of its own. They compete against the ideas the model derives from your product, and the direction that wins takes the build, fully committed. The hand below is dealt live from the 177 highest-rated worlds in the deck by the same roll API the skill uses.Why dice? Read the research →

Psst…the deck grows every week in Pro →

01### Respects your design system.

Inherits your tokens, components, and conventions instead of overwriting them. New work fits the system, not the model’s defaults.

02### Real product context.

04### Knows what the surface is for.

A landing page should persuade. A dashboard should help someone work. Impeccable names the mode before it designs.

05### Block slop before it ships.

Hooks inspect each UI edit and send findings straight back to the agent. The same detector can fail a PR.

The part that matters: builds for models with known tells carry extra slop rules banning that model’s habits. The Gemini build kills its image-on-hover motion; the Codex build refuses ghost-cards and over-rounding. Native hook wiring and a subagent ship too, where the tool supports them.
