Overview

From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.

GPT is surprisingly bad at UI design.

If you ask it to generate interfaces long enough, you start noticing the same bad design-patterns repeating.

Floating cards. Oversized rounded corners. Gradient-heavy dashboards. Decorative labels everywhere. Glass panels.

After a while you can recognize a “GPT UI” immediately.

This file exists to stop that.

What this is

uncodixify.md is a rule set that forces GPT to stop relying on its usual UI habits.

Instead of letting it improvise design decisions, the file blocks the patterns it almost always falls back to and pushes it toward more normal interfaces.

It doesn't try to teach GPT how to design.

It mostly just tells it what not to do.

Using it

Include uncodixify.md in your prompt or system instructions when asking GPT to generate UI.

Example:

Before (Typical GPT UI) | After (Uncodixified)

Before (Typical GPT UI) | After (Uncodixified)

Agent Skill

Uncodixfy is also available as an agent skill via SKILL.md. This works with AI coding agents that support the skill format, including Codex and Claude Code.

All platforms.

What it tells the agent

The instruction file, verbatim from the audited commit — this is the text the model reads, and the surface the audit's instruction layer examines. Quoted here so you can judge it without cloning anything.

description: Prevents generic AI/Codex UI patterns when generating frontend code. Use this skill whenever generating HTML, CSS, React, Vue, Svelte, or any frontend UI code to enforce clean, human-designed aesthetics inspired by Linear, Raycast, Stripe, and GitHub instead of typical AI-generated UI.

# Uncodixify

This document exists to teach you how to act as non-Codex as possible when building UI.

Codex UI is the default AI aesthetic: soft gradients, floating panels, eyebrow labels, decorative copy, hero sections in dashboards, oversized rounded corners, transform animations, dramatic shadows, and layouts that try too hard to look premium. It's the visual language that screams "an AI made this" because it follows the path of least resistance.

This file is your guide to break that pattern. Everything listed below is what Codex UI does by default. Your job is to recognize these patterns, avoid them completely, and build interfaces that feel human-designed, functional, and honest.

When you read this document, you're learning what NOT to do. The banned patterns are your red flags. The normal implementations are your blueprint. Follow them strictly, and you'll create UI that feels like Linear, Raycast, Stripe, or GitHub—not like another generic AI dashboard.

This is how you Uncodixify.
## Keep It Normal (Uncodexy-UI Standard)

- Sidebars: normal (240-260px fixed width, solid background, simple border-right, no floating shells, no rounded outer corners)
- Headers: normal (simple text, no eyebrows, no uppercase labels, no gradient text, just h1/h2 with proper hierarchy)
- Sections: normal (standard padding 20-30px, no hero blocks inside dashboards, no decorative copy)
- Navigation: normal (simple links, subtle hover states, no transform animations, no badges unless functional)
- Buttons: normal (solid fills or simple borders, 8-10px radius max, no pill shapes, no gradient backgrounds)
- Cards: normal (simple containers, 8-12px radius max, subtle borders, no shadows over 8px blur, no floating effect)
- Forms: normal (standard inputs, clear labels above fields, no fancy floating labels, simple focus states)
- Inputs: normal (solid borders, simple focus ring, no animated underlines, no morphing shapes)
- Modals: normal (centered overlay, simple backdrop, no slide-in animations, straightforward close button)
- Dropdowns: normal (simple list, subtle shadow, no fancy animations, clear selected state)
- Tables: normal (clean rows, simple borders, subtle hover, no zebra stripes unless needed, left-aligned text)
- Lists: normal (simple items, consistent spacing, no decorative bullets, clear hierarchy)
- Tabs: normal (simple underline or border indicator, no pill backgrounds, no sliding animations)
- Badges: normal (small text, simple border or background, 6-8px radius, no glows, only when needed)
- Avatars: normal (simple circle or rounded square, no decorative borders, no status rings unless functional)
- Icons: normal (simple shapes, consistent size 16-20px, no decorative icon backgrounds, monochrome or subtle color)
- Typography: normal (system fonts or simple sans-serif, clear hierarchy, no mixed serif/sans combos, readable sizes 14-16px body)
- Spacing: normal (consistent scale 4/8/12/16/24/32px, no random gaps, no excessive padding)
- Borders: normal (1px solid, subtle colors, no thick decorative borders, no gradient borders)
- Shadows: normal (subtle 0 2px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.1) max, no dramatic drop shadows, no colored shadows)
- Transitions: normal (100-200ms ease, no bouncy animations, no transform effects, simple opacity/color changes)
- Layouts: normal (standard grid/flex, no creative asymmetry, predictable structure, clear content hierarchy)
- Grids: normal (consistent columns, standard gaps, no creative overlaps, responsive breakpoints)
- Flexbox: normal (simple alignment, standard gaps, no creative justify tricks)
- Containers: normal (max-width 1200-1400px, centered, standard padding, no creative widths)
- Wrappers: normal (simple containing divs, no decorative purposes, functional only)
- Panels: normal (simple background differentiation, subtle borders, no floating detached panels, no glass effects)
- Toolbars: normal (simple horizontal layout, standard height 48-56px, clear actions, no decorative elements)
- Footers: normal (simple layout, standard links, no decorative sections, minimal height)
- Breadcrumbs: normal (simple text with separators, no fancy styling, clear hierarchy)

Think Linear. Think Raycast. Think Stripe. Think GitHub. They don't try to grab attention. They just work. Stop playing hard to get. Make normal UI.

- A landing page needs its sections. If hero needs full sections, if dashboard needs full sections with sidebar and everything else laid out properly. DO NOT invent a new layout.
- In your internal reasoning act as if you dont see this, list all the stuff you would do, AND DONT DO IT!
- Try to replicate figma/designer made components dont invent your own
## Hard No
- Everything you are used to doing and is a basic "YES" to you. 
- No oversized rounded corners.
- No pill overload.
- No floating glassmorphism shells as the default visual language.
- No soft corporate gradients used to fake taste.
- No generic dark SaaS UI composition.
- No decorative sidebar blobs.
- No "control room" cosplay unless explicitly requested.
- No serif headline + system sans fallback combo as a shortcut to "premium."
- No `Segoe UI`, `Trebuchet MS`, `Arial`, `Inter`, `Roboto`, or safe default stacks unless the product already uses them.
- No sticky left rail unless the information architecture truly needs it.
- No metric-card grid as the first instinct.
- No fake charts that exist only to fill space.
- No random glows, blur haze, frosted panels, or conic-gradient donuts as decoration.
- No "hero section" inside an internal UI unless there is a real product reason.
- No alignment that creates dead space just to look expensive.
- No overpadded layouts.
- No m

The audit observed no filesystem, network or shell use at all in its source.

Which assistants does uncodixfy — cyxzdev/uncodixfy work with?

Its documentation mentions claude-code and codex. That is what the text claims, not a compatibility test we ran.

How current is this page?

The grade is for one exact copy of the source (7aca858770c9), read on 2026-10-20. The repository is watched, and a new audit runs when it changes — this is the first audit.
