* Add DeepSeek live E2E adapter * Fix DeepSeek live E2E review issues * Harden live-e2e helpers against silent failures - htmlToJsx: match multi-line inline style attributes ([\s\S]*?) - readCliOption: throw when --flag value is missing or another --flag - llm-agent: echo parsed payload (first 500 chars) in schema-error throws * Bind hoisted inline styles to their owning tag normalizeVariantOutput previously hoisted every stripped style attribute onto a selector derived from the variant's first tag, so a style on a nested <span> landed on <h1>. Now walks each opening tag and emits one rule per styled element with a descendant combinator so nested-element styles target the correct node. Also fixes the duplicated multi-line style regex bug (.*?) -> ([\s\S]*?) that survived the previous round. Extracts parseVariantResponse from llm-agent for direct schema-throw testing, and lifts readCliOption into its own module so its new missing-value throws can be unit-tested. Adds tests for: - multi-line style hoisting - nested-element tag binding and per-tag rule emission - astro-global-prefixed selector shape - no-op identity-return path - opts.config short-circuit in createLlmAgent - all four parseVariantResponse schema previews + JSON-parse failure - readCliOption value/throw matrix * Hoist inline styles via data attribute, not tag name Two bugs in normalizeVariantOutput that Bugbot flagged: 1. Hoisted rules like `:scope span` matched every same-tag descendant of the variant wrap, so a style on one of several <span>s leaked onto its siblings. 2. The opening-tag scan used `[^>]*` for attributes, so a literal `>` inside a quoted attribute value (e.g. `aria-label="x > y"`) terminated the match early and the trailing `style="..."` was never seen. stripInlineStylesPerElement now walks each opening tag character by character respecting quoted attribute values, and tags every styled element with `data-impeccable-hoist-id="N"`. Rules select on the attribute so they bind to exactly the one element they came from. The attribute is stripped during carbonize cleanup so it does not survive into the final source. * Harden live E2E variant CSS normalization * Fix Radix tests * Harden live E2E pick clicks
Impeccable
The vocabulary you didn't know you needed. 1 skill, 23 commands, and curated anti-patterns for impeccable frontend design.
Quick start: Visit impeccable.style to download ready-to-use bundles.
Why Impeccable?
Anthropic's frontend-design was the first widely-used design skill for Claude. Impeccable started from there.
Every model trained on the same SaaS templates. Skip the guidance and you get the same handful of tells on every project: Inter for everything, purple-to-blue gradients, cards nested in cards, gray text on colored backgrounds, the rounded-square icon tile above every heading.
Impeccable adds:
- 7 domain reference files (view source). Typography, color, motion, spatial, interaction, responsive, UX writing. Load on every command, alongside a brand-vs-product register that adjusts the defaults.
- 23 commands. A shared design vocabulary with your AI:
polish,audit,critique,distill,animate,bolder,quieter, and more. - 27 deterministic anti-pattern rules plus a 12-rule LLM critique pass. CLI and browser extension run the deterministic ones with no LLM and no API key. Each is tied to specific design guidance the skill teaches against.

Usage Examples
/impeccable audit blog # Audit blog hub + post pages
/impeccable critique landing # UX design review
/impeccable polish settings # Final pass before shipping
/impeccable harden checkout # Add error handling + edge cases
Or use /impeccable directly with a description:
/impeccable redo this hero section
Anti-Patterns
The skill includes explicit guidance on what to avoid:
- Don't use overused fonts (Arial, Inter, system defaults)
- Don't use gray text on colored backgrounds
- Don't use pure black/gray (always tint)
- Don't wrap everything in cards or nest cards inside cards
- Don't use bounce/elastic easing (feels dated)

Installation
Option 1: Download from Website (Recommended)
Visit impeccable.style, download the ZIP for your tool, and extract to your project.
Option 2: Copy from Repository
Cursor:
cp -r dist/cursor/.cursor your-project/
Note: Cursor skills require setup:
- Switch to Nightly channel in Cursor Settings → Beta
- Enable Agent Skills in Cursor Settings → Rules
Claude Code:
# Project-specific
cp -r dist/claude-code/.claude your-project/
# Or global (applies to all projects)

Codex CLI:
# Project-local
cp -r dist/agents/.agents your-project/

Usage
Once installed, use commands in your AI harness:
/audit # Find issues
/normalize # Fix inconsistencies
/polish # Final cleanup
/distill # Remove complexity
Most commands accept an optional argument to focus on a specific area:
/audit header
/polish checkout-form
Note: Codex uses skills here, not /prompts: commands. Open /skills or type $impeccable. Repo-local installs live in .agents/skills/; user-wide installs live in ~/.agents/skills/. GitHub Copilot uses .github/skills/. Restart the tool if a newly installed skill does not appear.
CLI
Impeccable includes a standalone CLI for detecting anti-patterns without an AI harness:
npx impeccable detect src/ # scan a directory
npx impeccable detect index.html # scan an HTML file
npx impeccable detect https://example.com # scan a URL (Puppeteer)
npx impeccable detect --fast --json . # regex-only, JSON output
The detector catches 24 issues across AI slop (side-tab borders, purple gradients, bounce easing, dark glows) and general design quality (line length, cramped padding, small touch targets, skipped headings, and more).
