Email Remix

email-remix

Takes an email someone admires (a screenshot, a forwarded email, a URL or HTML), keeps only its layout, and rebuilds it in the user's own brand in Figma using their EMAIL.md and components. Their copy, images, logos and illustrations are never carried over. Use when someone says "make an email like this one", "I love this layout", "remix this email for our brand", or shares another brand's email as inspiration.

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

Installation

Install the Email Remix 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/kingadow/email-design-md/tree/main/skills/email-remix
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/kingadow/email-design-md.git /tmp/email-design-md
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/email-design-md/skills/email-remix .claude/skills/email-remix

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

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Email Remix 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 Email Remix 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 Email Remix 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.

Email remix

Good emails are worth learning from. Copying them is a problem: someone else's words, photos and brand. This skill takes the part that's fair to borrow, the structure, and rebuilds it as a new email that only uses your brand.

What you keep and what you leave

Keep: the layout	Leave behind: their brand
Section order, from first screen to footer	All copy, including headlines, subject lines and button labels
How each section is built: one column, two columns, grid, image left or right	Photos, illustrations, icons and any artwork
Proportions: how tall the hero is, how much room the copy gets	Logos, brand names, product names
The hierarchy: what's biggest, what the eye hits first	Their colors and fonts
The idea behind a section, such as "three steps" or "one review, big"	Distinctive graphic devices that identify their brand

If a layout only works because of their artwork (a custom illustration that is the section), say so and propose the nearest layout your components can do.

Steps

Read your EMAIL.md and load figma-use.
Map the source email. List its sections in order. For each, name the closest section component the brand already has (hero, text block, image and text, callout, steps, review, product grid) and note anything with no match. Note the hierarchy and proportions, not the content.
Show the map before building. One line per section: theirs, then yours. The user may want to drop or reorder sections.
Write new copy in the brand's voice from EMAIL.md, for the brand's own product and the job of this email. If there is no brief, ask what the email is for. Never translate or paraphrase their copy.
Build with email-design. Use the brand's components, colors, type, photos and rules. The result should look like your brand first, with the source's structure underneath.
Add a short note to the brief panel: "Layout adapted from . Copy, images and branding are original." Keep the source screenshot out of the deliverable file.
Run email-design-review blind, like any other email.

Don'ts

Don't trace or place their screenshot inside the frame, not even as a guide layer.
Don't keep their headline "with a few words changed".
Don't match their colors because they "look nice". Use your tokens.
Don't remix an email you can't name the source of. You need to know whose structure you're learning from.

Composes with

email-design: does the build.
email-design-review: checks the result.
The brand's EMAIL.md: the only source of colors, type, voice and photos.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Email Remix AI skill do?

Why use Email Remix on TypingMind?

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

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

Which AI models can use Email Remix?

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 Email Remix?

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

Is the Email Remix AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by kingadow 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.
