OpenDesign is an open-source, local-first desktop app that lets coding agents create prototypes, dashboards, slide decks, images, video, and design systems as exportable files. It is used by people working with agent runtimes such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and DeepSeek Harness. The catalogue add-ons extend the OpenDesign workflow with skills, instructions, commands, and plugins.
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.

- NVIDIA SkillSpector warn
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 Tool Misuse · line 190 Tool calls are chained to bypass individual safety checks or escalate capabilities beyond what any single tool call would allow.Fix: Limit tool chaining depth and validate the output of each tool before passing it to the next. Require explicit user approval for multi-step chains.
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 | $0.00045 | $0.02629 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00023 | $0.01314 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00526 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00263 |
Grade A, and why
hps-bauhaus 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 7d 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 — 192 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Bauhaus Primary (hps-bauhaus)
Single-theme deck plugin ported from the bauhaus theme of the upstream
MIT-licensed lewislulu/html-ppt-skill
(36 themes × 31 layouts × 27 animations). This plugin locks one skin:
design-history geometric modernism — the 1919–1933 Dessau language of
square/triangle/circle, the three primaries on an aged paper ground, and
typography that behaves like a poster.
Start from example.html. Replace content only. Never rewrite the design
system or the runtime script. Never introduce a color or font outside the
token sheet below.

Hard rules derived from the sheet:
- The three-band gradient (
--grad) has hard stops — it is a flag, not a blend. Use it only on.gradient-texthero words,.tri-band, and.divider-accent. Never use soft multi-stop gradients. - All chrome is ink:
2px solid #111borders on cards, pills, chart bars, checkboxes;3pxstrokes inside SVG. - Shadows are hard offsets (
4px 4px 0 #111,8px 8px 0 #111). Blurredrgbadrop shadows are forbidden. border-radiusis0on every element except the geometric circle device (border-radius:50%).
What ships with it
3 files 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.

hps-bauhaus is a skill published in the GitHub repository nexu-io/open-design (95,309 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 45 tokens to every session and 2,629 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-09-03.
