design-brief

design-brief is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from wolfenazz/YzPzCode. It costs 76 tokens per session (3,443 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of design-brief, Apache-2.0.

A method for turning a loosely written design request into a concrete design specification. It records decisions such as colors, fonts, layout, mood, visual density, and constraints.

In plain words
What is it for?
Preparing design specifications and optional previews for websites, interfaces, and other visual work.
Why use it?
It reduces ambiguity in requests such as “make it professional” by spelling out the visual choices before implementation begins.

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

design-brief 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 2d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

91% identical to design-brief — 11 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Design Brief Skill

Parse a structured design brief into a concrete DESIGN.md and optional visual preview. Agent, follow this workflow exactly.

Background

The 8 dimensions in this skill are derived from analysis of the 71 design systems bundled with Open Design. Every DESIGN.md in design-systems/ resolves at minimum: color palette, accent, typography, display font, layout model, and component style. We distilled these into 8 orthogonal dimensions that cover the decisions a designer makes before any pixel is placed. Mood and density were added because they are the two most common sources of ambiguity in natural language briefs ("make it clean" means different things to different people).

Dimensions intentionally excluded from the brief level: animation timing, responsive strategy, and accessibility contrast. These are enforced at the template level by individual skills (e.g., saas-landing handles its own responsive logic), though the generated DESIGN.md includes sensible breakpoint defaults for downstream consumption.

1. Accept input

The user provides a design brief in one of two formats:

Option A: I-Lang structured brief

[PLAN:@DESIGN|type=saas_landing]
  |palette=navy_and_white|accent=coral
  |typography=inter|display=space_grotesk
  |layout=single_column|max_width=1200px
  |mood=professional_minimal
  |density=spacious|section_gap=96px
  |hero=headline+subhead+cta
  |sections=features,pricing,testimonials,footer
  |exclude=animations,parallax,gradients
  |responsive=mobile_first

Option B: Natural language

"I need a landing page for a developer tool. Clean, minimal, dark mode. Inter font. No flashy animations."

If the user provides Option B, convert it to the structured format using the mapping table below, then proceed. Identify every dimension explicitly stated and flag dimensions that were left unspecified.

Natural language → I-Lang mapping

For each sentence in the natural language input, identify dimension keywords and map to the closest structured value:

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.
