stitch::manage-design-system is a skill for Claude Code from google-labs-code/stitch-skills. It costs 35 tokens per session (1,392 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A Stitch design-system manager for collecting project assets, creating a shared set of visual rules, and applying those rules to screens. A design system is a common set of colours, fonts, spacing, and component styles.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect Stitch projects, retrieve screen code and assets, create a design system from existing screens or a description, and apply it to screens.
Why use it?
It helps keep screens visually consistent and makes the project’s design decisions easier to reuse.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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::manage-design-system 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.

Design-System

Create a "source of truth" for your project's design language to ensure consistency across all future screens.

[!NOTE] Refer to your system prompt for instruction on handling MCP tool prefixes for all tools mentioned in this skill (e.g., get_screen, create_design_system_from_design_md, apply_design_system).

📥 Retrieval

To analyze a Stitch project, you must retrieve metadata and assets using the Stitch MCP tools:

  1. Project lookup: Use list_projects to find the target projectId.
  2. Screen lookup: Use list_screens for that projectId to find representative screens (e.g., "Home", "Main Dashboard").
  3. Metadata fetch: Call get_screen for the target screen to get screenshot.downloadUrl and htmlCode.downloadUrl.
  4. Asset download: Use read_url_content to fetch the HTML code.

🧠 Synthesis from Description

If you need to extract a design system from existing screens, use the design-md skill (in the stitch-utilities plugin).

If there are no existing screens (new project), or the user provides a direct description (e.g., "dark theme, blue and purple, rounded, Inter font"):

  1. Map the user's vague terms to precise values using the design mappings (see design-md skill in stitch-utilities or generate-design skill).
  2. Select concrete hex codes, font families, and roundness values.
  3. Generate the DESIGN.md file (refer to the design-md skill in stitch-utilities for structure).
  4. Proceed to the "Create or Update Design System in Stitch" step below.

📝 Output Structure

The DESIGN.md file should follow the structure defined in the design-md skill (in the stitch-utilities plugin).

🚀 Create or Update Design System in Stitch

After generating .stitch/DESIGN.md, make sure to also create or update the design system in Stitch.

Two-step design system creation:

[!WARNING] Checkpoint — User Confirmation Required. Before uploading, you MUST pause and ask the user for confirmation. Present a summary of the design system you are about to create (display name, key colors, fonts, and roundness) and wait for explicit approval before proceeding. Do NOT upload until the user confirms.

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.
