  • 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 MRCalderon3D on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Procgen Design 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/MRCalderon3D/everything-game-dev-code.git /tmp/everything-game-dev-code
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/everything-game-dev-code/skills/design/procgen-design .claude/skills/procgen-design
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Procgen 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 Procgen 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 Procgen 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.

Procedural Generation Design

Purpose

Design procedural content systems with seeds, constraints, and validation gates so generated output stays fun and shippable.

Use When

  • levels, loot, encounters, or world content will be generated rather than authored
  • generated output quality varies wildly and needs constraints
  • determinism, seed sharing, or reproducibility matters for testing or community features

Inputs

  • content type and generation goals (variety, replayability, scale)
  • authored content that generation must complement
  • difficulty and pacing constraints
  • determinism and seed requirements

Process

  1. define what generation must guarantee versus what may vary
  2. choose the authored-versus-generated split per content type
  3. specify seed handling, determinism scope, and reproducibility rules
  4. define validation gates that reject degenerate output before the player sees it
  5. plan telemetry to detect quality drift in shipped generation
  6. define how designers tune generators without touching generation code

Outputs

  • generation constraint specification
  • seed and determinism rules
  • validation gate definitions with rejection criteria
  • tuning surface for designers

Quality Bar

  • supports the core fantasy and player goals
  • defines readable rules, edge cases, and feedback
  • creates concrete hooks for tuning, telemetry, and QA

Common Failure Modes

  • generation without validation gates, shipping degenerate output
  • non-deterministic systems that QA cannot reproduce
  • variety goals that ignore pacing and difficulty constraints

Notes

  • Keep this skill aligned with the relevant rules layer and current project documentation.
  • If engine-specific constraints materially change the workflow, hand off to the matching engine skill or engine-specific reviewer.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Procgen Design AI skill do?

Design procedural content systems with seeds, constraints, and validation gates so generated output stays fun and shippable.

Why use Procgen Design on TypingMind?

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

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/MRCalderon3D/everything-game-dev-code/tree/main/skills/design/procgen-design. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Procgen 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 Procgen Design?

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

Is the Procgen Design AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by MRCalderon3D 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.
