stitch::code-to-design

Convert frontend code (Vite, React, Angular, Vue, etc.) to a Stitch Design by chaining static HTML extraction, design system extraction, and file upload. **ALWAYS** use this skill when the user's intent is to move existing web apps or React/Angular/Vue components into Stitch (e.g., requests to "save", "migrate", or "upload"). You must use this skill even for simple "save" operations, as it is the only way to ensure the design system is extracted and assets are properly linked.

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 google-labs-code on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

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

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.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

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/google-labs-code/stitch-skills.git /tmp/stitch-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/stitch-skills/plugins/stitch-design/skills/code-to-design .claude/skills/google-labs-code-stitch-code-to-design

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Stitch::Code To Design 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 Stitch::Code To Design 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 Stitch::Code To Design 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.

Code to Design

Transform your existing frontend code (React + Vite, Next.js, Angular, Vue, etc.) into a Stitch Design so you can iterate and improve it using Stitch.

This skill orchestrates three other skills in sequence:

extract-static-html: Extract a single self-contained HTML file from your build output or running dev server (e.g., Vite dev server or Angular CLI ng serve).
extract-design-md: Analyze the source code (including Angular angular.json, external .html templates, theme files, and components) to create a design system (DESIGN.md).
upload-to-stitch: Upload that HTML file and the design system to your Stitch project.

Workflow

Follow these steps to convert your existing code.

Prerequisites

A running local dev server (e.g. npm run dev, ng serve) OR a built web application directory containing index.html and assets.
Target Stitch projectId (use list_projects if unknown).

Steps

1. Extract Self-Contained HTML

Delegate to the extract-static-html skill to generate a standalone HTML file. Read skills/extract-static-html/SKILL.md for detailed instructions and script usage.

Expected output: A single file like /path/to/extracted/standalone.html.

2. Verify HTML (Optional — User-Driven)

After extraction, inform the user of the output file path so they can manually verify in a browser if desired. Do not block on verification — proceed directly to Step 3.

If the user reports issues after reviewing, fix them before continuing.

3. Extract Design System (File)

Delegate to the extract-design-md skill to analyze the project's source files (components, stylesheets, theme configs) and produce a design system. Read skills/extract-design-md/SKILL.md for the full analysis workflow.

Write .stitch/DESIGN.md following the extract-design-md skill's output structure.

4. Upload DESIGN.md and Create Design System in Stitch

Delegate to the manage-design-system skill to upload the DESIGN.md and create the design system in Stitch. Read skills/manage-design-system/SKILL.md for the full workflow (upload script usage, create_design_system_from_design_md call, and required schemas). Pass --generated-by 'stitch::code-to-design' when uploading.

5. Upload HTML to Stitch

Use the same upload-to-stitch skill's script to upload the extracted HTML file. Read skills/upload-to-stitch/SKILL.md for detailed instructions and script usage.

You will need:

The path to the standalone HTML file generated in Step 1.
Your Stitch API Key (same key used in Step 4).
The target projectId.
The --generated-by argument set to 'stitch::extract-static-html'.
The --title argument set to the route path of the page (e.g., '/dashboard', '/settings/profile', '/inbox') so that the screen name/title in Stitch clearly identifies its route in the application.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Stitch::Code To Design AI skill do?

Why use Stitch::Code To Design on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Stitch::Code To Design 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 Stitch::Code To Design in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/google-labs-code/stitch-skills/tree/main/plugins/stitch-design/skills/code-to-design. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Stitch::Code To Design?

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 Stitch::Code To Design?

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

Is the Stitch::Code To Design AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by google-labs-code under the Apache-2.0 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.
