01
UI/UX Pro Max
Product-dashboard structure: hierarchy, filters, empty states. Use it when the screen is a real admin surface, not a throwaway. It does not fetch metrics.

02
Web Design Guidelines
Web interface rules for density and layout when you do not want a named UX kit. Complements ui-ux-pro-max; it will not invent a dashboard information architecture by itself.

03
Prototype
Fast, disposable UI. Use it when the dashboard is a prototype and speed matters more than a system. Do not use it as the long-term design-system skill.

04
shadcn
When the dashboard will be built from shadcn table, sidebar, and card primitives. Implementation kit, not UX structure. Pair with ui-ux-pro-max if the agent is flattening the layout.

FAQ
Is there a dedicated dashboard-creator skill?
Not as a single official file right now. ui-ux-pro-max plus web-design-guidelines cover the layout job; prototype is for a fast, disposable pass.
Should I add a charting MCP?
Only if you need live data tools. These skills do not fetch metrics. They tell the agent how the screen should be structured.
How do I keep the dashboard from looking generated?
Pair this task with the taste task if the first render is a generic admin template.
