Hardlight UI

Frontend design guidance with sixteen original style grammars, twelve craft references, dated modern-web capability recipes, explicit direction context, and stateless tools for bounded source inspection, color contrast, and navigation task paths.

Good to know before installing

The hardlight_inspect tool reads frontend source files (.html, .css, .js, .ts, .jsx, .tsx, .vue, .svelte and similar; at most 500 files and 8 MiB) under any local directory the model names, skipping hidden, symlinked, vendor/build and secret-named paths, and returns their design tokens and findings to the model; the plugin adds a short system-prompt section naming its tools to every session; the tools make no network calls, run no subprocesses and write no files; the optional hardlight browser command, run by hand from a shell, launches a locally installed Chromium against loopback or file:// pages only and writes its report to the output folder you give it.

How to install

  1. Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs, then asks whether to turn it on.
    hermes plugins install hardlight-ui
  2. Said no? Turn it on later:
    hermes plugins enable hardlight-ui
  3. Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.

Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see Full setup & settings. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide (opens in a new tab).
