What This Skill Does

The skill_creator_design acts as a specialized design consultant agent within the OpenClaw ecosystem. Its primary purpose is to generate structured SKILL.md project files and supporting documentation to guide users through complex design lifecycles. Instead of providing fleeting creative advice, this skill creates a persistent framework that tracks a project from the initial requirement definition and research phases all the way through to solution design, collaborative reviews, and final delivery. By leveraging either a 'Lite' or 'Full' mode, it adapts the depth of its guidance based on the scale of your design task, ensuring that you follow industry-standard workflows without unnecessary overhead.

Installation

You can install this skill directly by running the following command in your OpenClaw terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/balancegsr/skill-creator-design

Use Cases

• New Product Development (0→1): Use the 'Full' mode to ensure no critical research or technical constraint is overlooked while building a new feature set.
• Feature Iteration: Use the 'Lite' mode for quick, effective updates to existing interfaces where speed is more important than exhaustive documentation.
• Design Governance: Maintain consistency across a design team by standardizing the output requirements and review checklists for all ongoing projects.

Example Prompts

1. "I need to design a new mobile app for personal finance tracking, can you create a design skill to guide me?"
2. "Help me build a project plan for a UI redesign of our internal dashboard, focusing on improving accessibility."
3. "I have an idea for a recurring task management widget, please set up a skill to help me define the scope and technical constraints."

Tips & Limitations

• Be Specific: The more details you provide regarding your constraints (budget, timeline, technical limits) during the intake phase, the more accurate the generated guidance will be.
• Mode Selection: Choose 'Full' if your design project has high stakes or multiple stakeholders, as it mandates more rigorous documentation.
• One-off Execution: Note that this is a generator, not a persistent assistant. It creates the framework for you to execute, rather than performing the design work itself. Once the SKILL.md is generated, ensure you read the created summary_guide.md to understand how to best utilize the generated references.
