At a glance

Clone a GitHub repo and extract design tokens (colors, fonts, spacing) from its codebase.

  • Works in 2 steps: Bash(which gh) — if missing, tell user:… → Check $ARGUMENTS matches…
  • User gives a github.com URL and wants a design system
  • SKILL.md covers Preflight, Steps and Failure modes
  • Calls gh, git and brew

What it does

Ingest GitHub is an agent skill from bluzir/claude-code-design. Clone a GitHub repo and extract design tokens (colors, fonts, spacing) from its codebase. Use when user gives a github.com URL and wants a design system or design work rooted in the repo's style.

Its SKILL.md is about 800 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 tokens and Design systems. It works with GitHub and Tailwind CSS. 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

  • User gives a github.com URL and wants a design system
  • Design work rooted in the repos style

Example prompts

  • “/ingest-github”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Glob, Grep, Bash(gh:*), Bash(mkdir:*), Bash(rm:*), Bash(realpath:*), Bash(basename:*)

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Bash(which gh) — if missing, tell user: brew install gh && gh auth login
  2. Check $ARGUMENTS matches github.com/owner/repo[/(tree|blob)/ref/path]

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
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • Bash(gh:*)
    • Bash(mkdir:*)
    • Bash(rm:*)
    • Bash(realpath:*)
    • Bash(basename:*)

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • gh
    • git
    • brew

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use gh and git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Ingest GitHub loads about 796 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 52 tokens; SKILL.md has 234 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~52
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~796

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 234 words (~796 tokens).

“Pull a repo into a temp location and extract design tokens. No manual git clone required for the user — uses gh CLI.”
