Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install design-stylecards

With no option, the skill goes to ~/.agents/skills/; add --agent claude-code (or codex, cursor…) to target an agent.

First time: connect the CLI with

npx --yes palatekit@latest login

The agent picks the recipe that matches your request from a catalog (layered shadow, glass panel, gradient border, mesh background, type roles, animation durations) and pastes it with its exact values. Each recipe says when to use it and what to avoid. You get a consistent look instead of values reinvented every time.

  • Adding a frosted glass effect on a dark background without the overused glow
  • Setting a simple motion rule (four durations, one standout animation per screen)

Not for

  • Extracting the style of an existing site or deriving tokens from it
  • Designing a full brand identity with logo and palette
  • Generating the layout of a whole page

Frequently asked questions

Does the skill work on its own?

Yes, the catalog sits in its own folder. It mentions other skills by the same author (style extraction, tokens) but depends on none of them.

Can I add my own recipes?

Yes. Add them to references/stylecards.md with the three parts of the contract: use when, exact values, avoid.
