design-skill-lab plugin
Three design skills for coding agents: design-studio (brief to handoff), critique-design (fresh-eye review and build acceptance), implement-design (build an existing design in your stack).
How to install the design-skill-lab plugin
Run both commands inside Claude Code. The first adds the marketplace once; the second installs the plugin.
/plugin marketplace add caocong1/design-skill-lab
/plugin install design-skill-lab@design-skill-labWhat's inside design-skill-lab

Claude loads it when the task matches- critique-design
Reviews, audits and scores an existing design or build like a senior design lead: a site, app screen, flow, component, brand asset, deck or graphic, from screenshots, a URL, mockups or a Figma export. Judges the render against the brief first, then checks the mechanical floor (computed contrast, overflow, targets, focus, states), and returns ranked findings (severity and evidence basis, Before | After | Why), rubric scores and a disposition: ship, fix, rebuild or recapture. Also the fresh-context critic for design-studio's own work, accessibility (WCAG 2.2) audits, and design QA that accepts a build against its handoff screenshots. 评审、设计评审、走查、体验走查、验收、设计验收、还原度检查、哪里不好、这个页面哪里不好看、无障碍检查、设计 QA、打分。Not for: making a new design or redesigning one (use design-studio); building or fixing a design in code (use implement-design); code review with no visual question.
- design-studio
Designer for every design intent. Turns requirements into a complete design (product truth, captured references, distinct directions on an options board, a design system with DESIGN.md and tokens, screens across states and platforms, a handoff package), or designs one page, screen, component, flow, animation, icon, app icon, logo, poster, social or deck graphic. Redesigns a product from what it does; restyles or unifies the look of existing product UI across app and web; chooses colour and type; finds inspiration; writes handoff specs, annotations and asset slices. Specifies interaction: task cost, keyboard, shortcuts, input methods, component behaviour. Draws in HTML/CSS/SVG and checks by rendering. 设计、UI、界面、页面、交互、易用性、快捷键、重设计、改版、整体优化、美化、样式统一、动效、图标、品牌、Logo、海报、配色、字体、灵感、多套方案、设计系统、交接、切图、标注。Not for: reviewing or auditing an existing design or build (use critique-design); building an existing design or handoff in code (use implement-design); front-end bugs that involve no design decision.
- implement-design
Use when a design, handoff package or mockup already exists and must be built in a specific stack: a .design/handoff package, HTML/CSS mockup, Figma frame, approved PNG, or specs and tokens turned into code in the host project (React, Next, Vue, Nuxt, Tailwind, Ant Design, Element Plus, uni-app, Flutter, SwiftUI, Compose, ArkUI, mini-programs, Electron, Tauri, WinUI), or a build fixed until it matches its design. Lands tokens in the host theme, builds every state, proves fidelity with build screenshots, acceptance and visual-regression baselines. 按设计稿实现、照设计图开发、设计稿还原、还原度修正、交接包落地、静态稿接入项目。Not for: deciding or improving what the design should be, UI polish, 整体优化, design-then-build from scratch, 切图/标注 or dev specs (use design-studio); reviews or acceptance reports without fixing (use critique-design); CSS refactors, front-end bugs or single property edits with no design to match.
