Is the Design Elevation skill free?

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

What is the Design Elevation SkillProof Score?

8.8/10 — installs cleanly 5/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 8/10, docs & honesty 4/5.

How do I install Design Elevation?

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 Design Elevation 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.

Test report

Verdict: Tested · Works
Score: 8.8/10
Tested: Jul 14, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Aug 10, 2026 · 3653564

Built the same 3-card KPI dashboard twice — once from scratch, once strictly following the skill's Tailwind-token rules — and the difference is concrete: gray-900/500/400 text hierarchy instead of pure black, shadow-sm instead of a harsh drop shadow, semantic emerald/rose accents instead of literal red/green, tabular-nums on every metric, and a text-xs source line the baseline never thought to add.

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

Installs cleanly 5/5
Triggers reliably 5/5
Output vs. baseline 8/10
Docs & honesty 4/5

What Design Elevation does

A reference library of design tokens and rules (color/type/spacing scales, elevation moves, Kholmatova functional-vs-perceptual framework, plus overrides for Trimble Modus, IBM Carbon, Shopify Polaris, Adobe Spectrum, Salesforce Lightning) that Claude applies whenever it produces a visual artifact. Triggers on any presentation, dashboard, HTML page, PDF, or data-viz request; it is prompt guidance, not executable tooling, so its whole value is in the specificity of the instructions Claude follows.
