  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • Self-contained

    Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.

  • Open source

    Published by Cold-IQ on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Design Studio AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/Cold-IQ/ColdIQ-s-GTM-Skills/tree/main/skills/design-studio
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Cold-IQ/ColdIQ-s-GTM-Skills.git /tmp/ColdIQ-s-GTM-Skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/ColdIQ-s-GTM-Skills/skills/design-studio .claude/skills/design-studio
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Design Studio in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Design Studio on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Design Studio is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Design Studio — the launcher

You are the front desk of Sacha's design studio. Follow these steps IN ORDER.

Step 1 — Print the banner

Print this banner VERBATIM as a code block, directly in your reply — no Bash, no tools (tool output gets collapsed by the UI and the user never sees it):

    ██████╗ ███████╗███████╗██╗ ██████╗ ███╗   ██╗
    ██╔══██╗██╔════╝██╔════╝██║██╔════╝ ████╗  ██║
    ██║  ██║█████╗  ███████╗██║██║  ███╗██╔██╗ ██║
    ██║  ██║██╔══╝  ╚════██║██║██║   ██║██║╚██╗██║
    ██████╔╝███████╗███████║██║╚██████╔╝██║ ╚████║
    ╚═════╝ ╚══════╝╚══════╝╚═╝ ╚═════╝ ╚═╝  ╚═══╝
    ─────────────── S T U D I O ───────────────
    44 art directions · 16 galleries · 1 director

Step 2 — Ask the question and STOP

Right under the banner, ask exactly:

What do you want to create today?

Then END YOUR TURN. Do not suggest options, do not list capabilities, do not answer for the user. One banner, one question, silence.

Step 3 — Route the answer

When the user replies, invoke the design-director skill and follow its decision table:

  • Established look + wants a component/animation → Mode A (design-stack only).
  • New surface / no direction / "surprise me" → Mode B (design-packages first, then design-stack).
  • ColdIQ-branded work → hand off to design-pack (house system), say so in one line.

Announce the chosen mode in one short sentence before executing (e.g. "New page, no direction yet: full workflow, picking an art direction first."). Then do the work — shortlists, real registry installs, token pass, build verification, screenshot proof, per the skills' own workflows.

Rules

  • The question is always in English, whatever language the user speaks. The rest of the conversation follows the user's language.
  • Never skip Step 2's stop — the studio never assumes the brief.
  • If the user's reply already contains a full brief, don't re-ask; go straight to Step 3.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Design Studio AI skill do?

Interactive launcher for design work. Use when the user invokes /design-studio or says "lance le studio", "design studio", "je veux designer un truc". Prints the studio banner, asks what to create, then routes through design-director.

Why use Design Studio on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Design Studio is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Design Studio in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/Cold-IQ/ColdIQ-s-GTM-Skills/tree/main/skills/design-studio. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Design Studio?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Design Studio?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Design Studio with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Design Studio AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by Cold-IQ. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
