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 hegemonart on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Gdd Graphify 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.
https://github.com/hegemonart/get-design-done/tree/main/scripts/skill-templates/graphify
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/hegemonart/get-design-done.git /tmp/get-design-done
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/get-design-done/scripts/skill-templates/graphify .claude/skills/gdd-graphify

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

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Gdd Graphify 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 Gdd Graphify 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 Gdd Graphify 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.

gdd-graphify

Thin command wrapper around the get-design-done (GDD) graphify tools integration.

Usage


/get-design-done graphify build          # Build or rebuild the knowledge graph
/get-design-done graphify query <term>   # Query graph for a node and neighbors
/get-design-done graphify status         # Check graph age, enabled, node count
/get-design-done graphify diff           # Show topology changes since last build

Behavior

Read .design/STATE.md to check graphify status in <connections>.

Check graphify.enabled in .design/config.json via a direct file read (per D-09 - no config-get CLI subcommand):


node -e "try{const c=JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync('.design/config.json','utf8'));process.stdout.write(String(c.graphify?.enabled===true))}catch{process.stdout.write('false')}"

If not enabled, print:


"Graphify is not enabled. Edit `.design/config.json` to set `graphify.enabled: true`."
"Then run {{command_prefix}}graphify build to generate the knowledge graph."

STOP.

Execute the requested subcommand via the native CLI:
- build: node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/gdd-graph" build
- query: node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/gdd-graph" query "<term>" --budget 2000
- status: node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/gdd-graph" status
- diff: node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/gdd-graph" diff
After build completes, update .design/STATE.md <connections>: graphify: available

Required Reading

.design/STATE.md - for graphify status in <connections>
.design/config.json - for graphify.enabled flag

Notes

Graphify is optional. The native CLI ships with the plugin at ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/gdd-graph (no external install - Node only).
Graph is stored at .design/graph/graph.json (Ajv-validated against scripts/lib/graph/schema.json).
Graph covers source code (src/, components/). It does NOT index .design/ artifacts by default.
Use query with node IDs from the graph schema: component:<name>, token:color/<name>, decision:D-<nn>, etc.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Gdd Graphify AI skill do?

Manage the Graphify knowledge graph for the current project. Build, query, status, diff. When available, design-planner and design-integration-checker use the graph for pre-search consultation.

Why use Gdd Graphify on TypingMind?

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

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/hegemonart/get-design-done/tree/main/scripts/skill-templates/graphify. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Gdd Graphify?

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 Gdd Graphify?

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

Is the Gdd Graphify AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by hegemonart 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.
