  • 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.

  • 1 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by ihlamury on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Pinterest Ui Skills 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.
  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.
2

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/ihlamury/design-skills.git /tmp/design-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/design-skills/skills/pinterest .claude/skills/pinterest-ui-skills
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Pinterest Ui Skills 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 Pinterest Ui Skills 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 Pinterest Ui Skills 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.

Pinterest UI Skills

Opinionated constraints for building Pinterest-style interfaces with AI agents.

When to Apply

Reference these guidelines when:

  • Building light-mode interfaces

Colors

  • SHOULD use light backgrounds for primary surfaces

Semantic Tokens

TokenHEXRGBUsage
surface-base#FFFFFFrgb(255,255,255)Page background
surface-raised#DC001Argb(220,0,26)Cards, modals, raised surfaces
surface-overlay#DDDED8rgb(221,222,216)Overlays, tooltips, dropdowns
text-primary#3B3B3Argb(59,59,58)Headings, body text
text-secondary#ED93A1rgb(237,147,161)Secondary, muted text
text-tertiary#EB5B3Ergb(235,91,62)Additional text
border-default#BC1C31rgb(188,28,49)Subtle borders, dividers
destructive#EB5B3Ergb(235,91,62)Error states, delete actions

Typography

  • MUST use Inter as primary font family
  • SHOULD use single font family for consistency
  • MUST use 49px / 700 for primary headings
  • MUST use 19px / 400 for body text
  • MUST limit font weights to: bold, semi_bold, regular
  • MUST use text-balance for headings and text-pretty for body text
  • SHOULD use tabular-nums for numeric data
  • NEVER modify letter-spacing unless explicitly requested

Typography Reference

Font Families:

  • Inter (used 15x)

Font Sizes: 11px, 12px, 14px, 16px, 19px, 37px, 46px, 49px

Spacing

  • MUST use 4px grid for spacing
  • SHOULD use spacing from scale: 3px, 4px, 5px, 51px, 71px
  • SHOULD use 5px as default gap between elements
  • NEVER use arbitrary spacing values (use design scale)
  • SHOULD maintain consistent padding within containers

Borders

  • MUST use border-radius from scale: 13px, 15px
  • MUST use 1px border width consistently
  • SHOULD use 15px as default border-radius
  • NEVER use arbitrary border-radius values (use design scale)
  • SHOULD use subtle borders (1px) for element separation

Border Radius Reference

Scale: 13px, 15px

Layout

  • MUST design for 1920px base viewport width
  • SHOULD use consistent element widths: 10px
  • SHOULD maintain text-heavy layout with clear hierarchy
  • NEVER use h-screen, use h-dvh for full viewport height
  • MUST respect safe-area-inset for fixed elements
  • SHOULD use size-* for square elements instead of w-* + h-*

Detected Layout Patterns

  • Main Content: width: 1920px, height: 759px

  • SHOULD respect prefers-reduced-motion

Performance

  • NEVER animate large blur() or backdrop-filter surfaces
  • NEVER apply will-change outside an active animation
  • NEVER use useEffect for anything that can be expressed as render logic

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Pinterest Ui Skills AI skill do?

Pinterest's UI design system. Use when building interfaces inspired by Pinterest's aesthetic - light mode, Inter font, 4px grid.

Why use Pinterest Ui Skills on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Pinterest Ui Skills 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 Pinterest Ui Skills in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/ihlamury/design-skills/tree/main/skills/pinterest. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Pinterest Ui Skills?

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 Pinterest Ui Skills?

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

Is the Pinterest Ui Skills AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by ihlamury 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.
