What it does
Refero Skill is a research-first skill for interface design together with the Refero MCP server. By the description the library holds screens and user flows of real apps that the agent studies before it draws its own. The bundled reference materials work without an account while live research needs a Refero account and a paid plan, sign-in through OAuth. Installation in Claude Code: `/plugin marketplace add referodesign/refero_skill`, then `/plugin install refero@refero`; for other agents `npx skills add https://github.com/referodesign/refero_skill --skill refero-design`. Version 1.0.2 from 04.08.2026, MIT license. The project is published by the Refero service itself.
Who it is for. For designers and developers who study real interfaces before designing and are ready to use the Refero service.
Good fit when
- You need to study screens and flows of real apps before designing
- You need interface samples in the agent's context
- You already have a Refero account and plan
Not a fit when
- You have no paid Refero plan: live research is unavailable
- You need a fully free and standalone tool
Example request
Find through Refero examples of subscription checkout screens and extract the shared techniques, then propose your own variantLimitations
Live research needs a Refero account and a paid plan, sign-in goes through OAuth. Without an account only the bundled reference materials work. The MCP server only reads the service's data and requests go to Refero, so access is extended. The skill is published by the service's vendor.
How to disable. Remove the skill from the agent's folder or the plugin through the plugin manager.
