Is the Frontend Design skill free?

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

What is the Frontend Design SkillProof Score?

9.6/10 — installs cleanly 5/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 10/10, docs & honesty 4/5.

How do I install Frontend Design?

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 Frontend Design 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.

Same landing-page brief run with and without the skill: the with-skill version had a real type scale, intentional palette and none of the neon-gradient tells. Night and day.

What Frontend Design does

The single highest-leverage skill for anyone shipping web UI with Claude. Injects real design discipline — typography scales, color systems, anti-slop rules — into every frontend task. Our before/after test showed the largest quality delta of any skill in this category.

Frontend Design before / after — same task, with and without

Without the skill

Purple-to-blue gradient hero, Inter everywhere, three identical feature cards with big icons, neon glow buttons — the default "AI made this" look.

With Frontend Design

A real type scale, one deliberate accent color, asymmetric layout, hairline borders — output reviewers mistake for a designed site.
