A crisp greybox / blueprint lo-fi wireframe — neutral grey blocks on a pale page, image placeholders drawn as a rectangle with a diagonal X, text shown as solid "lorem bars" of varying widths, sharp 1.5–2px borders, and a single monospace redline accent for annotations. Reads like a structural blueprint before any visual design is applied. Use when the brief asks for "greybox", "blueprint wireframe", "lo-fi dashboard", "low fidelity", "线框图", or "灰盒原型".

# Wireframe Greybox Skill
Produce a single crisp greybox wireframe page. The whole point is
*structure, not skin* — communicate hierarchy and layout with neutral
grey blocks, never with real color, copy, or imagery. Everything is a
placeholder: text is grey "lorem bars", images are rectangles with a
diagonal cross, numbers are big solid blocks. The only color on the page
is the single redline accent reserved for monospace annotations.
## Workflow
1. **Stay structural.** Ignore any DESIGN.md that pushes finished UI —
this is deliberately low fidelity. Use a clean system sans (Inter /
system-ui) for shape and a mono (IBM Plex Mono / JetBrains Mono) for
the redline annotations only. No hand-drawn fonts, no brand color.
2. **Set the greybox palette.** Page is a pale neutral (`#f7f7f8`),
blocks are medium grey (`#e3e3e6`), borders are crisp and defined
(`#c9c9cf` for soft edges, `#1c1b1a` for emphasis), and exactly one
accent (a blue or coral redline) carries every monospace annotation.
Keep contrast high enough to read as a small thumbnail — never
near-white-on-white.
3. **Lay out the dashboard**, in order, each on its own `data-od-id`:
- **App bar** — a logo greybox, a row of nav lorem-bars, and an
avatar circle on the right.
- **Sidebar nav** — icon squares + lorem-bar labels; mark one item
active with a filled/inverted block.
- **KPI row** — four greyboxes, each a small label bar above a big
solid "number" bar.
- **Chart panel** — an inline SVG greybox: axes plus a few
hatched/grey bars or a schematic line. No real data.
- **List / table panel** — a header row plus ~5 rows of lorem bars,
with one column of image-placeholders drawn as a box with a
diagonal X.
- **Annotations** — one or two small monospace redlines pinned to the
canvas (e.g. `01 · 12-col grid`, `max-width 1280`).
4. **Write** one self-contained HTML document — `<!doctype html>`
through `</html>`, CSS inline, no external JS or images. SVG and CSS
draw every placeholder. A `max-width` container plus a media query
collapses columns under ~1000px.
5. **Self-check.** It should read as a blueprint at thumbnail size: grey
blocks, X-crossed image boxes, lorem bars, and exactly one accent
color on the monospace redlines. If any greybox is missing, the page
looks colored, or it disappears as a blank thumbnail, fix it.
