Tailwind CSS Review Results — index.html (v4)
Summary
| Dimension | Count |
|---|---|
| Class redundancy | 4 |
| v4 migration | 8 |
| Design tokens | 5 |
| Accessibility (Tailwind) | 2 |
| HTML structure a11y | 6 |
| Total | 25 |
Sample findings
[Redundancy] index.html:9
Issue: `flex` and `block` are both specified
Fix: <header class="flex items-center justify-between px-6 py-4">
[Shared Classes] index.html:27,31,35
Issue: 3 feature cards all have "bg-white p-6 rounded shadow-sm flex-shrink flex-grow"
Fix: move to the grid parent via *:
[v4 Migration] index.html:21
Issue: `bg-opacity-90` removed in v4 → slash syntax; `shadow-sm` renamed to `shadow-xs`
Fix: bg-[#294779]/90 shadow-xs
[Token] index.html:26
Issue: gap-[52px] is not in the common table but is a clean /4 step (52/4=13)
Fix: gap-13
[HTML a11y] index.html:19,25,43,56
Issue: Heading hierarchy skips from <h1> straight to <h3> (no <h2> anywhere)
Fix: change section headings from <h3> to <h2>
19 of 25 findings were auto-applied. 2 findings (footer contrast on text-gray-400/bg-gray-900, and two hardcoded colors with no @theme/DESIGN.md defined yet) were flagged for manual review only — contrast needs visual/WCAG verification, and colors need a design-token decision this skill won't make on its own.

Summary
tailwind-review complete (Tailwind v4, full page)
Fixes applied:
- 4 redundancy fixes (flex+block removed, 3 groups consolidated via *:)
- 8 v4 migration fixes (space-x/y → gap, bg-opacity → slash syntax, flex-shrink/grow → shrink/grow,
shadow-sm → shadow-xs ×3, bg-gradient-to-r → bg-linear-to-r, outline-none → outline-hidden)
- 2 design-token scale fixes (w-[320px] → w-80, gap-[52px] → gap-13)
- 3 typography suggestions applied (leading-tight added to text-xs)
- 1 Tailwind a11y fix (uppercase class instead of literal caps in HTML)
- 6 HTML structure a11y fixes (nav aria-label, CTA converted to <button>, 2× button type,
label added for the email input, 3 heading levels fixed h3 → h2)
Flagged, not auto-applied (advisory only, by design):
- footer text-gray-400 on bg-gray-900 — contrast warning, needs visual/WCAG verification
- 2 hardcoded colors — no @theme/DESIGN.md defined yet, flagged for future token definition

About this skill
Tailwind projects accumulate small rot over time: conflicting classes left over from edits, v3-era utilities that quietly changed meaning in v4, one-off hex colors that should have been design tokens, and accessibility gaps that don't show up until a screen reader hits them. This skill checks all of that in one pass, framework-agnostic, and fixes what's safe to fix automatically.
What it does
- Detects conflicting or redundant classes on the same element (flex + block, w-full + w-1/2), and finds groups of siblings that share classes worth consolidating with Tailwind's `*:` variant
- Detects your Tailwind version and flags v3-era classes that were removed, renamed, or silently changed scale in v4 (opacity utilities, flex-shrink/grow, shadow/blur/rounded scale shifts, gradients, and more) — offers a full v3→v4 migration when needed
- Finds hardcoded arbitrary values (`text-[#294779]`, `w-[320px]`, `font-['Inter']`) and suggests replacing them with your DESIGN.md tokens, your `@theme` variables, or the closest built-in Tailwind scale value — including computing the correct spacing step even for values not in any reference table
- Flags visual accessibility issues Tailwind styling can hide: uppercase text written directly in HTML instead of the `uppercase` class, and low-contrast gray-on-light-background text worth a WCAG check
- Checks HTML structure independent of Tailwind: missing `aria-label` on nav, buttons without a `type`, inputs relying on placeholder instead of a label, and heading hierarchy skips
- Applies auto-fixable items (redundancy, v4 renames, scale conversions) after you confirm — advisory-only items like contrast warnings are reported but never silently changed
How it works
- Detects your Tailwind version from package.json / tailwind.config.js / your CSS entry file, and reads DESIGN.md if present as the top-priority reference for design tokens
- Scans every HTML / JSX / TSX / Vue / Astro file with Tailwind classes across the 5 review dimensions
- Presents a full findings report grouped by dimension, with a total count and file/line references
- Asks whether to apply the auto-fixable items, review file by file, or stop after the report
- Applies approved fixes directly with the Edit tool, leaving advisory-only findings (contrast, undefined design tokens) as recommendations
What it is not
This reviews code already written in Tailwind. If a project isn't using Tailwind yet (plain CSS, Sass/SCSS), use a migration skill first to get Tailwind classes in place — this skill has nothing to review until then. It also doesn't invent design tokens on your behalf: if no DESIGN.md or `@theme` exists, hardcoded colors are flagged for you to decide on, not silently converted to a guessed token name.
Requirements
Framework-agnostic — works on `.html`, `.tsx`, `.jsx`, `.vue`, and `.astro` files using either `class=` or `className=`. No specific framework or build tool is required; Tailwind version is auto-detected where possible, or you'll be asked once.
