aid-design is a skill for Claude Code from AndreVianna/aid-methodology. It costs 156 tokens per session (1,417 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A design writer that produces a lasting UX or interaction plan, such as a component, interface, or user flow, with accessibility notes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan user experiences, interaction flows, components, and interfaces before development.
Why use it?
It turns an undeveloped idea into a design reference that can guide the real build, without implementing the interface itself.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

aid-design scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 26d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 120 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Design (produce a kept design, resolve nothing)

/aid-design produces a design artifact meant to be kept and built -- distinct from /aid-prototype, whose model is throwaway and only validates a direction. Pin the distinction: prototype = throwaway, to validate; design = kept, to inform the build. It fills the DESIGN lite gap (DESIGN is a task type, but there was no lite entry point).

  • Boundary vs /aid-create-document: aid-design produces the design (aid-architect, DESIGN); aid-document writes documentation about something (aid-tech-writer, DOCUMENT). A design needing a formal written spec -> print a handoff to /aid-create-document.
  • Not a numbered pipeline phase; does not route to /aid-execute.

State machine: INTAKE -> DESIGN -> VERIFY (loop) -> PRESENT [user decides] -> HANDOFF? -> DONE. Print the [State: NAME] -- {purpose} entry line on each state.

State: INTAKE

  1. Require a subject. Empty argument -> ask one bootstrapping question ("What do you want designed, and what will it need to support?") and wait.
  2. Pick the path: Fast -- a clear thing to design ("design the checkout flow", "design this service's interface") -> design now. Guided -- open-ended ("design our onboarding") -> scope the subject, constraints, and success criteria first.
  3. Classify complexity (model + effort): simple (one component/flow) -> aid-architect at sonnet / medium; complex (a system architecture, a multi-screen flow) -> opus / high. Verifier tier >= producer tier.
  4. Consult the Work Initiation Gate, then allocate the work folder + STATE. First run the gate (.aid/runtime/templates/work-initiation-gate.md): bash .aid/runtime/scripts/works/enumerate-works.sh (main tree + every git worktree). Empty -> allocate, no prompt. Works exist -> ask new-vs-continuation; on continuation route to the chosen work's resume door and STOP (allocate nothing); on new work: create and enter the worktree per the gate's § 3a step 2 (worktree-lifecycle.sh create <work-id> <name>, STOP on a non-zero exit or empty path, else enter the resolved path), then allocate (pipeline.path: lite, initiator: aid-design, lifecycle: Running, active_skill: aid-design; phase not driven).

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
