A frontend-design skill alternative that uses your references

frontend-design is Anthropic’s own skill for Claude Code. It gives Claude design judgement: ground the design in the product, let type carry the personality, plan tokens before coding, and avoid the clichés of AI-made UI. It is rules, not references. The PocketUI design skill gives Claude the components, colors and fonts you saved from sites you like.

Why use PocketUI instead

References instead of rules

frontend-design tells Claude how to choose a style. The PocketUI skill gives it the style: the sections, colors and fonts you saved.

Real component code

Each save keeps its real HTML and CSS. Claude starts from it and converts it to your framework, instead of designing from scratch.

Better together

Keep frontend-design for general craft and add the PocketUI skill for the look. They do different jobs.
