Is the AI DS Composer skill free?

Yes. The skill itself is free from cris-achiardi/claude-skills. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.

What is the AI DS Composer 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 AI DS Composer?

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 AI DS Composer 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.

Verdict: Tested · Works
Score: 9.2/10
Tested: Jul 14, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)

Asked for a prominent hero CTA button to /pricing: the baseline answer just emitted <Button href> with no further thought, while the skill surfaced the bundled anti-pattern ('Button for plain navigation → use Link') and then explicitly reasoned through the documented exception for primary hero CTAs before keeping Button — a decision baseline never even considered.

What AI DS Composer does

Guides Claude to read a project's hierarchical design-system metadata (top-level philosophy, per-atom/molecule/organism metadata files) and pick components, variants, and props by citing selectionCriteria rather than intuition. Triggers when generating or modifying UI components/layouts where reuse and adherence to an existing design system matter, and explicitly flags anti-patterns and unmapped requirements instead of silently inventing components.

Commands — how to trigger AI DS Composer

/ai-ds-composer Reasons through design-system metadata to compose UI from existing components instead of inventing new code.

It also activates on plain-language prompts like these:

I need a button for the hero section, what fits our design system?
Build this card using our existing design system components
Does this new Modal fit our design system or should I reuse something?
