Prototype · nicknisi
- Build a throwaway prototype to answer a design question before committing to real implementation. Generates either a runnable terminal app (for state machines, data models, business logic) or several radically different UI variations on one route (for visual/layout decisions). Use when the user wants to prototype, spike, POC, sanity-check a data model, mock up a UI, explore design options, or says "prototype this", "spike this out", "let me play with it", "try a few designs", "sketch this in code", "I want to try something before building it for real", "quick and dirty version", or "validate this approach" — even if they don't use the word "prototype."

Security audit
Not scanned yet. We audit npm-published capabilities for known advisories, install-time scripts and permission surface; this one has no npm package we can resolve, or has not reached the queue.
Its own instructions
Its SKILL.md says when to use it and covers setup.
Read from the capability’s own SKILL.md. This is not a grade and does not compare to the instruction-depth verdict on an MCP server — a skill has no tools to document, so that rubric does not apply to it.
