README excerpt
Read full README on GitHub →Superdesign: UI, presentations, and graphics for coding agents
Stop shipping AI-slop UI. Coding agents write great code and mediocre interfaces: generic layouts, default shadcn everything, no taste. Superdesign is the skill that gives your agent design judgment, so the UI it ships actually looks considered.
Install it once and your agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and 70+ others) can find real design direction and generate + iterate high-quality UI, presentations, and graphics on an infinite canvas, all without leaving your terminal.
Powered by superdesign.dev, the AI product design agent.

What is Superdesign?
Superdesign is an AI product design agent. It gives coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and 70+ others) real design judgment, so the UI they ship looks considered instead of generic.
- What it does — finds design direction, sets up design systems, approves presentation outlines, and generates + iterates high-quality UI, slide decks, and graphics on an infinite canvas.
- Who it's for — developers, indie hackers, and product/UI designers who want to go from idea to shippable UI fast without leaving their coding agent.
- How it's different — style-preset skills just swap in a theme or a component library. Superdesign designs into your existing design system: it reads your code for context, gathers real style references, and produces branchable drafts you refine.
- Cross-session continuity — after the first real-codebase design, the skill remembers the project, draft, extracted components, and budgeted source-context bundle so later unchanged iterations resume without repeating codebase discovery.
- Two ways in — this skill from any coding agent, or the web app at superdesign.dev.
Not the legacy IDE extension. The archived open-source
superdesigndev/superdesignVS Code extension is an older, separate project. This skill and superdesign.dev are the current, maintained product.
Install
Any coding agent — installs the skill for any of the 70+ supported coding agents:
npx skills add superdesigndev/superdesign-skill
Claude Code — install it as a plugin instead, so it stays namespaced and updates with /plugin update:
/plugin marketplace add superdesigndev/superdesign-skill
/plugin install superdesign@superdesign
The skill is then invoked as /superdesign:superdesign. (Do not also run npx skills add in Claude Code — that installs a second, unnamespaced copy of the same skill.)
Either way, install the CLI it drives:
npm install -g @superdesign/cli@latest
superdesign login
Use it
Just talk to your agent:
/superdesign help me redesign this settings page so it doesn't look like default AI slop
/superdesign set up a design system from my current codebase
/superdesign improve the design of my dashboard
/superdesign create an 8-slide presentation about our product launch
The skill handles the rest: it reads your code for context, gathers real style references, and produces design drafts you can branch and refine.
