Example session with this skill installed
Create a concept for a focus timer app called "DeepWork". Use the mascot style lane.
- Read your context and instructions
- Compiled the appicon-master-style
I have developed three distinct concepts for the DeepWork focus timer, prioritizing silhouette clarity and a playful yet disciplined personality.
App Icon Design Directions
| Concept | Metaphor | Style Lane | Palette | Silhouette |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Pondering Owl | Wisdom & Stillness | Anthropomorphic | Deep Indigo, Amber, White | Broad circular head with tufted ears |
| The Iron Tomato | Pomodoro + Strength | Bold Dimensional | Tomato Red, Steel Grey, Black | Heavy spherical base with a metallic leaf |
| The Zen Mountain | Unshakeable Focus | Bold Silhouette | Teal, Slate, Snow | Sharp triangular peak with a soft mist base |
Recommended Direction: The Pondering Owl
This concept survives 32px scaling best due to the high-contrast amber eyes against the deep indigo head. It creates a memorable "gaze" that gives the app personality without needing complex text.
Production Prompt
App icon for iOS, DeepWork focus timer. A stylized anthropomorphic owl head, front-facing, centered. Massive amber eyes, tiny white pupils, triangular beak. Bold rounded geometry, 3 major parts. Deep indigo feathers, soft dimensional volume, light from top-left. Vivid high-contrast palette. Subject occupies 80% of square. Simple flat teal background. No text, no small leaves, no branches, no thin lines. High legibility at 32px.
Next steps
- Select a concept to generate the high-resolution construction specification.
- Run the provided prompt through your preferred image generator.
- Upload the result for a final legibility audit and shadow refinement.

About this skill
Most app icons fail because they are too complex or lack a clear metaphor. This skill enforces a specific visual language—bold silhouettes, anthropomorphic mascots, and high-contrast palettes—to ensure your product stands out on a crowded home screen. It translates vague product ideas into concrete visual metaphors that retain clarity at 32px.
What it does
- Concept Development transforms product briefs into specific object, action, and emotion frameworks.
- Visual Critiques scores existing icons on silhouette clarity, color contrast, and platform readiness.
- Prompt Engineering generates structured image-generation prompts that encode geometry and lighting rather than just style names.
- Production Handoff defines technical specs for canvas size, safe areas, and export requirements for iOS and Android.
- Style Alignment ensures new designs match a specific lane of bold, dimensional, or playful aesthetics.
How it works
- Provide a product description to receive three distinct metaphor directions and palettes.
- Select a direction to generate a detailed construction specification and image prompt.
- Upload an existing icon for a systematic audit against legibility and brand standards.
Frameworks & tools
Works with DALL-E 3, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion for image generation. Technical handoffs support standard design specs for iOS (1024px sRGB PNG) and Android platforms.
Why this beats prompting it yourself
Generic prompts often produce icons with tiny text, busy backgrounds, or inconsistent lighting. This skill applies a rigid design grammar that prioritizes silhouette readability and metaphoric weight, preventing the "AI look" and ensuring icons work at small scales.
Use cases
- Ideating metaphors for a new mobile utility app.
- Refactoring a complex logo into a simplified mascot icon.
- Generating production-ready prompts for AI image tools.
- Auditing a design system for visual consistency across an app suite.
Known limitations
Does not generate vector SVG files directly. Focuses on single-subject silhouettes rather than complex scenes or typography.
