Fine to try.
Use this skill whenever a design has too much or too little visual content competing for attention — when a screen "feels noisy," "looks busy," "feels cluttered," "feels empty," or when the user can't find the meaningful information amid decoration.

We found nothing in the files we read that matches our rules. That does not prove the skill is safe: see the limits of static scanning.
Install
Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'signal-to-noise-ratio' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'signal-to-noise-ratio' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named signal-to-noise-ratio already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/hashgraph-online/awesome-codex-plugins' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '70b6a3a3a7c774671e45af646306e1448baf0511' -- 'plugins/HDeibler/universal-design-principles/plugins/perception-and-hierarchy-principles/skills/signal-to-noise-ratio' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/HDeibler/universal-design-principles/plugins/perception-and-hierarchy-principles/skills/signal-to-noise-ratio' ~/.agents/skills/'signal-to-noise-ratio' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'signal-to-noise-ratio' ~/.claude/skills/'signal-to-noise-ratio' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
