superpowers-sage:designing

superpowers-sage:designing is a skill for Claude Code from hekivo/superpowers-sage. It costs 63 tokens per session (1,507 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for turning designs from Figma, Paper, Stitch, or local files into UI implementations in a Sage project. It covers layout, content, visual references, design tokens, and responsive components.

In plain words
What is it for?
Starting a design-based build, extracting screens or sections, preparing reference assets, and reviewing a page against its design.
Why use it?
It helps developers capture the intended design and keep the implementation aligned with the supplied design system before and during coding.

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

superpowers-sage:designing 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 10d 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 — 133 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Designing — Design Tool Integration

Route to the right design tool based on the URL the user provides — Paper (preferred), Stitch, Figma, or local assets — to extract layout, content, and visual references for implementation.

When to use

  • Starting implementation of a visual design
  • Need to capture design reference before building
  • Comparing implementation against design
  • Populating plan assets directory with screenshots

Inputs required

  • Design source: Stitch project ID, Figma file URL, or local asset path
  • Optional: specific section/screen name to extract

Procedure

0) Determine source from user input (URL-based routing)

Routing is driven by what the user provided, not by which MCPs happen to be configured.

  1. URL match — inspect the user's input for a design URL:
    • paper.design/* or *.paper.design/*paper branch (use mcp__paper__*)
    • figma.com/*figma branch (use mcp__figma__* / mcp__claude_ai_Figma__*)
    • stitch.withgoogle.com/* (or other known stitch hosts) → stitch branch (use mcp__stitch__*)
  2. Path match — inspect user input for a .pen reference:
    • Input ends in .pen OR input starts with design/pencil branch
    • No input provided AND design/ exists in the project root with .pen files: list the available .pen page files (exclude *.lib.pen) and ask the user which page to extract before proceeding.
  3. Local fallback — if no URL but docs/plans/<active-plan>/assets/section-*.png exists → offline branch
  4. Ask — if neither URL nor local assets are present, ask the user for one

MCP gate: once the branch is known, ToolSearch the corresponding mcp__<tool>__* namespace. If the MCP is NOT configured, stop with this message:

⛔ You sent a {paper|figma|stitch} link but the `{tool}` MCP is not configured.

Configure it and re-run, or send a link from another source.

Do NOT silently fall back to a different MCP.

Pencil MCP gate: For the pencil branch, ToolSearch mcp__pencil__open_document. If NOT configured:
