Is the Agf Design Discipline skill free?

Yes. The skill itself is free from pcliangx/AppGenesisForge. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.

What is the Agf Design Discipline SkillProof Score?

9.2/10 — installs cleanly 5/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 8/10, docs & honesty 5/5.

How do I install Agf Design Discipline?

Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.

Can I use Agf Design Discipline with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?

The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.

Score: 9.2/10
Tested: Jul 21, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Aug 10, 2026 · dd463db

Located SKILL.md at .claude/skills/agf-design-discipline/; frontmatter parses with name+description. Spot-checked 3 referenced files via raw fetch — agf-design-precheck.sh, docs/adr/013-design-discipline-layer.md, docs/design/DESIGN.md — all HTTP 200; no security smells (advisory bash script, exit 0, no network/exfil). Built two HTML user-list sections and ran the skill's own precheck: the baseline (my reflexive default) flagged 5 categories (min-h-screen, font-family Inter, from-indigo/to-violet + bg-purple gradient, grid-cols-3 equal cards, emoji icons); the skill-following version flagged 0 and additionally carried a Design Read line, VARIANCE/MOTION/DENSITY=4/2/high dials, token-referenced colors, a divide-y dense list instead of 3 equal cards, lucide icons, and full loading/empty/error states instead of happy-path only.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

Installs cleanly 5/5
Triggers reliably 5/5

What Agf Design Discipline does

A design-judgment layer for producing shadcn/ui + Tailwind product UI: it requires a one-line "Design Read" declaration, sets VARIANCE/MOTION/DENSITY dials, and enforces an "AI tells" blacklist (indigo/violet gradients, Inter, pure black/white, three equal cards, emoji icons, fake names, happy-path-only states) with per-rule overrides and a mechanically-checkable pre-flight. Triggers when writing a design spec or static HTML prototype, building UI from a design, or judging whether an interface looks AI-generated. Assumes an AGF-style project with a DESIGN.md token file and shadcn/Tailwind stack.

How to install Agf Design Discipline

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/pcliangx/AppGenesisForge.git /tmp/agf-design-discipline-src
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -R /tmp/agf-design-discipline-src/.claude/skills/agf-design-discipline ~/.claude/skills/agf-design-discipline
# Optional mechanical pre-check script (SKILL.md §5 references it):
#   cp /tmp/agf-design-discipline-src/.claude/scripts/agf-design-precheck.sh ~/.claude/scripts/
#   usage: bash agf-design-precheck.sh <design-dir-or-file>   (advisory, exit 0)
# NOTE: SKILL.md links to project-internal files (docs/design/DESIGN.md token SSOT,
#   docs/adr/000 + 013, .claude/agents/uiux-designer.md) that only exist inside AGF.
#   The skill works standalone as design guidance but those cross-references will 404
#   outside the repo. No external CLI/API/MCP needed to apply the discipline itself.

Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ (per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.
