At a glance

Extract or build a design system (tokens, components, style guide).

  • Works in 6 steps: Registry check (avoid re-extracting what… → Source → Build → …
  • Tasks that involve Design systems
  • SKILL.md covers Phase 0 — Registry check…, Phase 1 — Source, Phase 2 — Build and Phase 3 — Register, plus 2 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Create Design System is an agent skill from bluzir/claude-code-design. Extract or build a design system (tokens, components, style guide). Use for "design system", "style guide", "tokens", "UI kit".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Design systems. The repository describes itself as: Claude Design reproduced for Claude Code — HTML decks, prototypes, design systems, animated videos via skills + starters + Chrome DevTools MCP.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Design systems

Example prompts

  • “design system”
  • “style guide”
  • “tokens”
  • “/create-design-system”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep, Bash(cp:*), Bash(open:*), Bash(mkdir:*), mcp__chrome-devtools__*

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Registry check (avoid re-extracting what you already have)
  2. Source
  3. Build
  4. Register
  5. Persistent context
  6. Offer registry save (cross-project reuse)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ce68c84. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Write
    • Edit
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • Bash(cp:*)
    • Bash(open:*)
    • Bash(mkdir:*)
    • mcp__chrome-devtools__*

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are html and json).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Create Design System loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 37 tokens; SKILL.md has 342 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~37
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 342 words (~1,076 tokens).

“Produce a living HTML style guide with colors, typography, spacing, radii, shadows, and components. Uses register-asset to feed assets.html.”
