Readwise UI Skills

Opinionated constraints for building Readwise-style interfaces with AI agents.

When to Apply

Reference these guidelines when:

•Building light-mode interfaces
•Creating Readwise-inspired design systems
•Implementing UIs with Inter font and 4px grid

Colors

•SHOULD use light backgrounds for primary surfaces
•MUST use #FFFFFF as page background (surface-base)
•MUST use #3C78C1 for primary actions and focus states (accent)
•SHOULD reduce color palette (currently 24 colors detected)
•MUST maintain text contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 for accessibility

Semantic Tokens

Token	HEX	RGB	Usage
`surface-base`	#FFFFFF	rgb(255,255,255)	Page background
`surface-raised`	#3C78C1	rgb(60,120,193)	Cards, modals, raised surfaces
`surface-overlay`	#F7EFA0	rgb(247,239,160)	Overlays, tooltips, dropdowns
`text-primary`	#323232	rgb(50,50,50)	Headings, body text
`text-secondary`	#83B2E7	rgb(131,178,231)	Secondary, muted text
`text-tertiary`	#A3995D	rgb(163,153,93)	Additional text
`border-default`	#2165BC	rgb(33,101,188)	Subtle borders, dividers
`accent`	#3C78C1	rgb(60,120,193)	Primary actions, links, focus
`warning`	#F4CF8F	rgb(244,207,143)	Warning states, cautions
`destructive`	#F0791E	rgb(240,121,30)	Error states, delete actions

Typography

•MUST use Inter as primary font family
•SHOULD use single font family for consistency
•MUST use 48px / 700 for primary headings
•MUST use 28px / semi_bold for body text
•SHOULD reduce font weights (currently 5 detected)
•MUST use text-balance for headings and text-pretty for body text
•SHOULD use tabular-nums for numeric data
•NEVER modify letter-spacing unless explicitly requested

Text Styles

Style	Font	Size	Weight	Color	Count
`heading-1`	Inter	48px	700	#383938	1
`text-38px`	Inter	38px	extra_bold	#303030	1
`body`	Inter	28px	semi_bold	#313131	1
`text-22px`	Inter	22px	semi_bold	#323232	1
`text-22px`	Inter	22px	semi_bold	#383838	1
`text-22px`	Inter	22px	400	#4C4C4C	1
`text-21px`	Inter	21px	400	#635A37	1
`text-18px`	Inter	18px	semi_bold	#D5D5D5	1
`text-16px`	Inter	16px	400	#9D9D9C	1
`text-14px`	Inter	14px	400	#BDD8EF	1

Typography Reference

Font Families:

•Inter (used 49x)

Font Sizes: 5px, 6px, 7px, 8px, 9px, 10px, 11px, 12px, 13px, 14px, 16px, 18px, 21px, 22px, 28px, 38px, 48px

Spacing

•MUST use 4px grid for spacing
•SHOULD use spacing from scale: 1px, 2px, 3px, 4px, 5px, 6px, 7px, 8px
•SHOULD use 5px as default gap between elements
•NEVER use arbitrary spacing values (use design scale)
•SHOULD maintain consistent padding within containers

Borders

•MUST use border-radius from scale: 2px, 5px, 7px, 9px
•SHOULD limit border widths to: 1px, 2px
•SHOULD use 5px as default border-radius
•NEVER use arbitrary border-radius values (use design scale)
•SHOULD use subtle borders (1px) for element separation

Border Radius Reference

Scale: 2px, 5px, 7px, 9px

Layout

•MUST design for 1920px base viewport width
•SHOULD use consistent element widths: 6px, 9px, 64px, 5px, 160px
•SHOULD maintain text-heavy layout with clear hierarchy
•NEVER use h-screen, use h-dvh for full viewport height
•MUST respect safe-area-inset for fixed elements
•SHOULD use size-* for square elements instead of w-* + h-*

Detected Layout Patterns

•Main Content: width: 1920px, height: 1080px
•Main Content: width: 1364px, height: 913px
•Main Content: width: 1364px, height: 903px
•Main Content: width: 963px, height: 569px
•Header: height: 66px

Components

Buttons

Variant	Background	Text	Border	Height	Radius
Ghost	transparent	#83B2E7	none	-	-

Interactive States

Focus

•MUST use 2px outline with accent color (#3C78C1)
•MUST use 2px outline-offset
•NEVER remove focus indicators

Hover

•Buttons (primary): lighten background by 10%
•Buttons (secondary): use #3C78C1 background
•List items: use #3C78C1 background

Disabled

•MUST use opacity: 0.5
•MUST use cursor: not-allowed

Interaction

•MUST use an AlertDialog for destructive or irreversible actions
•SHOULD use structural skeletons for loading states
•MUST show errors next to where the action happens
•NEVER block paste in input or textarea elements
•MUST add an aria-label to icon-only buttons

Animation

•NEVER add animation unless it is explicitly requested
•MUST animate only compositor props (transform, opacity)
•NEVER animate layout properties (width, height, top, left, margin, padding)
•SHOULD use ease-out on entrance animations
•NEVER exceed 200ms for interaction feedback
•SHOULD respect prefers-reduced-motion

Performance

•NEVER animate large blur() or backdrop-filter surfaces
•NEVER apply will-change outside an active animation
•NEVER use useEffect for anything that can be expressed as render logic
