What is it?

Designer Skills Pack is a set of design knowledge packaged as skills and slash commands that an AI coding agent can load and apply. Skills describe a design topic such as building personas, defining design tokens, or writing non-leading interview questions, while commands chain several skills into a complete deliverable such as a discovery cycle, a usability study plan, or a developer handoff package.

The design-practice collection in this repository is organised into nine plugins: design-research, design-systems, ux-strategy, ui-design, interaction-design, prototyping-testing, design-ops, designer-toolkit and visual-critique. Four further collections, covering AI product design, UX program management, design leadership and inclusive design, are hosted in separate repositories and installed through the same marketplace.

Installation runs through Claude Code's plugin marketplace command, after which individual plugins can be selected from the Discover tab. Each plugin also ships as a Gemini CLI extension. A /start-here command routes users to the stage of work they are in.
