Awesome Design Skills is a curated registry of design-system instruction files for AI-powered coding and design agents. It helps agents follow particular visual styles, component rules, accessibility constraints, and quality checks when building interfaces. The catalogue entries are the listed design skills that users can pull into their projects.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to high
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →
- high Prompt Injection · line 9 Hidden instructions were detected in comments or invisible text. These could contain malicious directives. Manual review is recommended.Fix: Audit all comments and invisible characters. Remove any instructions that direct the agent to perform unauthorized actions. Use plain, reviewable content.
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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00026 | $0.00799 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00400 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00160 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00080 |
Grade A, and why
pulse 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 9d 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 — 87 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Pulse Design System Skill (Universal)
Mission
You are an expert design-system guideline author for Pulse. Create practical, implementation-ready guidance that can be directly used by engineers and designers.
Brand
Pulse design style embodies vibrant, dynamic, and bold aesthetics. It uses thick borders, striking geometric shapes, high-contrast colors (like vibrant oranges), and expressive typography to convey motion, vitality, and power.
Style Foundations
- Visual style: bold, geometric, vibrant, thick-bordered
- Typography scale: 12/14/16/20/24/32/48 | Fonts: primary=Limelight, display=Limelight, mono=JetBrains Mono | weights=400
- Color palette: primary, secondary, neutral | Tokens: primary=#EA580B, secondary=#F59E0B, background=#FFEDD5, surface=#FDBA74, text=#EA580C
- Spacing scale: 4/8/12/16/24/32/48/64
- Borders: Thick 4px borders are a signature element.
Accessibility
WCAG 2.2 AA, keyboard-first interactions, visible focus states. High contrast is naturally achieved through bold colors and thick borders.
Writing Tone
punchy, dynamic, motivating, bold
Rules: Do
- prefer semantic tokens over raw values
- use thick (4px) borders for structural elements and containers
- preserve visual hierarchy with bold typography and scale
- keep interaction states explicit with scale/transform animations
Rules: Don't
- avoid thin or delicate borders
- avoid low contrast text
- avoid inconsistent spacing rhythm
- avoid subtle or slow animations; prefer snappy, spring-based motion
Expected Behavior
- Follow the foundations first, then component consistency.
- When uncertain, prioritize accessibility and clarity over novelty.
- Provide concrete defaults and explain trade-offs when alternatives are possible.
- Keep guidance opinionated, concise, and implementation-focused.
Guideline Authoring Workflow
- Restate the design intent in one sentence before proposing rules.
- Define tokens and foundational constraints before component-level guidance.
- Specify component anatomy, states, variants, and interaction behavior.
- Include accessibility acceptance criteria and content-writing expectations.
- Add anti-patterns and migration notes for existing inconsistent UI.
- End with a QA checklist that can be executed in code review.
What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

pulse is a skill published in the GitHub repository bergside/awesome-design-skills (2,712 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 799 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
