Audit an existing web UI and produce a modernization plan plus a fresh design system. Use when a site or app already works but looks dated or generic and needs a proper visual audit and a redesign pass, not a rebuild from scratch. Preserves content, routes, and SEO.

  • 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 Darcos-Loft on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Redesign 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/Darcos-Loft/fluid/tree/main/redesign
  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/Darcos-Loft/fluid.git /tmp/fluid
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/fluid/redesign .claude/skills/redesign
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Redesign 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 Redesign 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 Redesign 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.

Redesign

Audit-first. For a site that already works but looks templated or dated, this finds what is wrong, decides what to keep, and ships a committed new identity, without throwing away working structure.

When to use

  • An existing site (Webflow, WordPress, an old React app) needs to look current.
  • A client hands you a live URL and wants it modernized.
  • A redesign that must preserve content, SEO, and routes.

The workflow

  1. Audit. Run the fluid detector on the codebase (or read the live DOM and CSS). Catalogue the generic-look tells: fonts, palette, spacing, shadows, the slop list. Note what is genuinely good and worth keeping.
  2. Draw the keep/change line. Preserve: content, information architecture, routes, anything that converts. Change: the identity (palette, type, surface, motion), the layout repetition, the bans.
  3. Generate the new identity with the design-system skill. Brief it from the brand, pick from data/, commit. Two redesigns in the same sector get different palettes.
  4. Map old to new. A token migration: old hardcoded values become new CSS variables, component by component. Keep a small table so nothing is missed.
  5. Re-skin, do not rebuild. Keep the markup and structure, swap the look: tokens, type, motion. Add fluid motion where it earns its place.
  6. Pre-flight. Run the detector again, check design-system/reference/rules.md (locks, hero discipline, bans). Produce a before/after so the value is visible.

Rules

  • Preserve what converts. A redesign that drops content or breaks routes is a rewrite, not a redesign.
  • One identity, committed. Never half-redesign (new colors on old fonts).
  • Show the before and after.

Pairs with: design-system (the new identity), fluid (the motion and the detector audit).

Frequently asked questions

What does the Redesign AI skill do?

Audit an existing web UI and produce a modernization plan plus a fresh design system. Use when a site or app already works but looks dated or generic and needs a proper visual audit and a redesign pass, not a rebuild from scratch. Preserves content, routes, and SEO.

Why use Redesign on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Redesign 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 Redesign in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/Darcos-Loft/fluid/tree/main/redesign. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Redesign?

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 Redesign?

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

Is the Redesign AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by Darcos-Loft under the MIT license. 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.
