What it does

Design Squad is an agent skill from ohmyjahh/xquads-squads. Squad de 8 agentes de design e design operations (Brad Frost/Atomic Design, Dan Mall, Dave Malouf) mais especialistas em UX, UI, design system e geracao visual. Use para criar ou auditar design system, especificar componente, desenhar fluxo de UX, montar handoff para desenvolvimento e estruturar DesignOps. Gatilhos: design system, tokens, componente, UX, UI, wireframe, acessibilidade, atomic design, handoff, DesignOps, biblioteca de padroes.

Its SKILL.md is about 770 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 31 other files (for example `README.md`, `agents/brad-frost.md` and `agents/dan-mall.md`).

It sits in Frontend & Design, covering UI design and Design systems. The repository describes itself as: Xquads Squads - 12 squads com 96+ agentes IA especializados, workflows e tasks. The licence is MIT.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cd5e798. 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 Squad loads about 769 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 115 tokens; SKILL.md has 279 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~115
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~769

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.
