Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
Self-contained
Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.
Open source
Published by Dragoon0x on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Critique Vocabulary AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
https://github.com/Dragoon0x/taste-skills/tree/main/skills/articulation/critique-vocabulary
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Dragoon0x/taste-skills.git /tmp/taste-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/taste-skills/skills/articulation/critique-vocabulary .claude/skills/critique-vocabulary

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Critique Vocabulary in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Critique Vocabulary on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Critique Vocabulary is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Critique Vocabulary

Say exactly what you mean. Kill vague words.

How to use

/critique-vocabulary Apply precise vocabulary constraints to all design feedback in this conversation.

Constraints

Banned Words

NEVER use these in design feedback: clean, modern, sleek, nice, cool, interesting, beautiful, ugly, minimal, bold, intuitive, seamless, stunning, pop, vibe
MUST replace every banned word with a specific observation about hierarchy, weight, rhythm, density, contrast, proportion, consistency, or spacing

Replacement Vocabulary

Instead of...	Use...
"It feels cluttered"	"The information density is high relative to the content hierarchy. Nothing signals where to start."
"It looks boring"	"The visual rhythm is flat. Every section has the same scale and spacing."
"Make it pop"	"The CTA doesn't have enough visual separation from surrounding elements."
"Something feels off"	"The spacing between these groups seems inconsistent. Is this relationship intentional?"
"It's not polished"	"The border radius is inconsistent between these elements."
"Explore other directions"	"The current approach prioritizes X. What happens if we prioritize Y instead?"

Feedback Structure

MUST use: Observation > Principle > Question
Observation: what you specifically see
Principle: why it matters
Question: what to explore (not what to do)

Anti-Patterns

Giving feedback in the form of commands ("make the button blue")
Using technical jargon to sound authoritative without actually being specific
Being vague-positive ("looks great!") which teaches nothing

Frequently asked questions

What does the Critique Vocabulary AI skill do?

Precise language for design feedback. Ban vague words. Name what you actually see. Use when giving design feedback, running critiques, or training teams to communicate about quality.

Why use Critique Vocabulary on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Critique Vocabulary is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Critique Vocabulary in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/Dragoon0x/taste-skills/tree/main/skills/articulation/critique-vocabulary. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Critique Vocabulary?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Critique Vocabulary?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Critique Vocabulary with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Critique Vocabulary AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by Dragoon0x under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
