AGENTS WITH TASTE

Coding agents don't quite know what great feels like when it comes to visual work like animations. One way to get around this is to create a skill file for each aspect of an interface. Describe the rules of what 'great' feels like in that context and give that to agents so they can follow them. This results in AI that has the taste and knowledge to produce significantly better results.
