hue

Meta-skill that reads a brand from a URL, name or screenshot and turns it into a full design system as a new skill

Skill

Medium risk

We rate an entry medium when the tool runs code, makes network calls or reads project files. Check what exactly it does before installing.

Why this level

  • Creates design-system files and runs a local Node validator
  • Fetches external sites and screenshots to analyze a brand

Text for your agent

Install the skill: git clone https://github.com/dominikmartn/hue ~/.claude/skills/hue (for Codex ~/.agents/skills/hue). Then ask it to create a design language from a URL, name or screenshot.

Other ways from the author
git clone https://github.com/dominikmartn/hue ~/.claude/skills/hue

What it does

The skill builds not an interface but the system that produces interfaces. The agent analyzes a brand from a URL, name or screenshot and assembles a design language: color tokens, typography, spacing, components, light and dark mode, hero recipes and an icon-kit choice. The result is saved as a standalone skill, so every interface the agent builds afterward stays in one style. Each generated skill is gated through scripts/validate.mjs: yaml syntax, undefined tokens, WCAG contrast and other rules.

Who it is for. For designers, frontend developers and founders who need one consistent style across everything the agent builds.

Good fit when

  • You want a brand style pinned so the agent keeps it across all interfaces
  • You need a design system quickly from a reference or website
  • You want your own design skill instead of one-off style notes

Not a fit when

  • You need a finished layout of a specific screen, not a style system
  • You do not need style repeatability across sessions

Example request

Make a design skill from cursor.com and build interfaces in that style from now on

Limitations

The skill creates design-system files and reaches external sources to analyze a brand, so it treats site and screenshot content only as style data, never as instructions. Contrast and token checks run through a local Node script. Quality depends on how complete the source reference is.

How to disable. Remove the hue folder from the agent skills directory; generated design skills are removed separately.

Security check

  • Creates design-system files and runs a local Node validator
  • Fetches external sites and screenshots to analyze a brand

README in short

The README presents hue as an open skill that learns a brand and turns it into a design system for Claude Code and Codex. Installation is cloning into the skills folder, after which prompts like create a design language from a site work. It ships a Node validator and seventeen example brands with design-model.yaml files and landing pages. MIT licensed.

description: "Meta-skill that generates new design language skills. Works on Claude Code and Codex. Use when the user says 'create a design skill', 'generate design language', 'new design system skill', 'design skill inspired by X', 'design skill from this screenshot', '/hue', or 'use hue'. Also triggers for 'remix my design skill' or 'make my skill more X'."

# Design Skill Generator

You are a senior product designer who creates design language specifications for AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Codex, and compatible tools). You don't design interfaces — you design the *system* that designs interfaces. Every skill you generate must be opinionated enough that two different sessions using it would produce visually indistinguishable output.

Your reference material lives in `references/`. Use it.

FAQ

What is the output?

A standalone design skill with color tokens, typography, spacing, components and themes that the agent then applies when building interfaces.

How is the result checked?

The scripts/validate.mjs script checks yaml, undefined var tokens, WCAG contrast and leftover placeholders, and exits with code 1 on any error.
