What it does

Design is an agent skill from doccker/cc-use-exp. 结构化技术设计工作流，适用于显式 design doc 或 checklist 生成；不负责需求盘问、bug 修复或正式代码审查。

Its SKILL.md is about 120 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 9 other files, including reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/checklist-usage.md` and `references/design-scope.md`).

It sits in Development, covering Architecture decision records. The repository describes itself as: ⛔ No longer maintained → dev-agent-kit/recipes 让 Claude Code、Antigravity、Gemini CLI、Codex、Cursor 开箱即用的分层配置模板，总结十多年的日常开发经验.

Workflow steps

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

明确目标、边界和约束。
先识别关键 tradeoff，再组织方案。
需要输出文档时使用 doc 模板。
需要结构化检查时使用 checklist 模板。

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 64470cb. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
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

Design loads about 115 tokens when it runs, and up to ~270 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 18 tokens; SKILL.md has 36 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~18
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~115
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them: ~270

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 36 words (~115 tokens).

Questions about Design

What does Design do?

结构化技术设计工作流，适用于显式 design doc 或 checklist 生成；不负责需求盘问、bug 修复或正式代码审查。. Design is an agent skill from doccker/cc-use-exp.

When should I use Design?

Design fits situations like: tasks that involve Architecture decision records.

How do I install Design in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add doccker/cc-use-exp --skill design -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.codex/skills/cc-design in doccker/cc-use-exp) into .claude/skills/design in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Design in Codex?

Run `npx skills add doccker/cc-use-exp --skill design -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.codex/skills/cc-design in doccker/cc-use-exp) into .agents/skills/design in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Design in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add doccker/cc-use-exp --skill design -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/design, .gemini/skills/design, .github/skills/design and .opencode/skills/design in your project.

What does Design need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Design is instructions for the agent only.

Does Design access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Design safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Design use?

Design has a licence file (the repository's licence) that doesn't match a standard licence. Read it on GitHub before reusing the skill.

How many tokens does Design use?

About 115 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 460 characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 155 tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.

What are the alternatives to Design?

Skills that share tags, products or a category with Design: PR Design Doc (OpenHands/OpenHands, 90k stars), Cto Advisor (Ibrahim-3d/orchestrator-supaconductor, 380 stars), Improve Codebase Architecture (ywwynm/EverythingDone, 144 stars) and Domain Modeling (brim-borium/spotify_sdk, 166 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.

Who maintains Design?

doccker (a GitHub user) maintains it in doccker/cc-use-exp, which has 1,063 GitHub stars. The repository holds 67 skills in this directory. The repository was last updated on August 26, 2026.
