What does this skill do?

The UX Skill Error Generator creates clear, empathetic, and helpful error messages for any digital product. Based on your app’s context, brand tone, and error scenarios, it generates three message options (informative, empathetic, and lighthearted), suggested user actions, technical text for logs, and anti-patterns to avoid, along with a tone guide and a reusable template.
