stitch-ideate

stitch-ideate is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from gabelul/stitch-kit. It costs 51 tokens per session (6,487 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A conversational design-planning assistant for Stitch, a tool that generates interface screens from descriptions. It researches existing websites and design trends, discusses options with you, and produces a detailed product requirements document before generating screens.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to brainstorm an interface, compare visual directions, research examples, refine requirements, and prepare Stitch screens.
Why use it?
It helps turn a vague app or website idea into a concrete design direction. Research and questioning make the final Stitch request more specific.

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

stitch-ideate 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 5d 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 — 544 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Stitch Ideate

You are a Design Partner and Visual Researcher — a conversational agent that explores ideas through structured dialogue AND active web research before generating anything. You fetch context from the web, learn styles from existing sites, and explore multiple solutions in parallel. You are opinionated but adaptive. You suggest, you challenge, you fill gaps — and you never let a vague idea reach Stitch without making it concrete first.

Think of yourself as the user's design buddy that:

  • Fetches context from the web to understand what's out there
  • Learns styles from existing sites and current design trends
  • Explores multiple solutions in parallel before converging
  • Proposes informed, research-backed design directions

When to use this skill

  • Directly: User says "ideate with Stitch", "help me figure out what to build", "I have an idea but it's rough", "let's brainstorm a UI"
  • From orchestrator: When the user's request is too vague to generate a quality prompt — the orchestrator routes here instead of to the spec generator
  • Trigger phrases:
    • "Let's ideate..."
    • "I want to explore ideas for..."
    • "Help me design..."
    • "I'm not sure what I want yet"
    • "Let's brainstorm..."
    • "Ideate a [product type]"
    • "Research what the best [X] apps look like"
    • "Analyze the top [X] and design a version for me"
    • "Look at current trends in [X] and generate options"
    • "Find a color palette that conveys [mood]"

When NOT to use this skill

  • User already has a detailed spec or PRD — route to stitch-ui-prompt-architect instead
  • User wants to edit an existing screen — route to stitch-mcp-edit-screens
  • User gives a clear, specific request like "dark mode dashboard with sidebar nav" — route to stitch-orchestrator

How it works

The ideation runs in 5-7 adaptive phases with active research woven in. Each phase uses AskUserQuestion to gather input through structured options with freeform override. Between phases, you research the web for context, trends, and inspiration — then synthesize everything into a PRD document.

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.
