AI Design Skills

A growing collection of design skills for AI coding tools — Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, and anything else that reads a markdown rules file.

Each skill is a self-contained folder. Install the ones you need.

Skills

More on the way. Upgrading an existing site instead of building new? That one lives in its own repo since it predates this collection.

Install

Uses the skills CLI. Needs Node.js.

npx skills add elayadesign/ai-design-skills

It lists the skills in this repo and asks which ones to install and for which agents. Add flags to skip the prompts:

# one skill
npx skills add elayadesign/ai-design-skills --skill landing-page-design

# pick agents
npx skills add elayadesign/ai-design-skills -a claude-code -a cursor

# user-level instead of project-level
npx skills add elayadesign/ai-design-skills -g

# see what's available without installing
npx skills add elayadesign/ai-design-skills --list

Add -y to skip confirmations. Skills land in .claude/skills/ for Claude Code and .agents/skills/ for Cursor, Codex and other agents. Run npx skills update later to pull changes.

Then just ask, in plain language, for what the skill covers.

mkdir -p .claude/skills
git clone https://github.com/elayadesign/ai-design-skills.git /tmp/ai-design-skills
cp -r /tmp/ai-design-skills/skills/<skill-name> .claude/skills/

mkdir -p .cursor/rules
curl -o .cursor/rules/<skill-name>.md \
  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/elayadesign/ai-design-skills/main/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md

Make it yours

Every skill's design values (fonts, colors, spacing, motion) live in one section near the bottom of its file. Fork this repo, edit that section, and the rest of the skill follows automatically.
