business-design-templates

Client-facing design deliverables: proposals, SOWs, case studies, pitch decks, pricing calculators, project briefs, and handoff documentation. Use when packaging design work for a client, an executive, or a portfolio — the artifact that leaves the team, not the interface itself.

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.
7 bundled files
Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.
Open source
Published by phazurlabs on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Business Design Templates 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/phazurlabs/sumi/tree/main/skills/business-design-templates
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/phazurlabs/sumi.git /tmp/sumi
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/sumi/skills/business-design-templates .claude/skills/business-design-templates

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

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Business Design Templates 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 Business Design Templates 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 Business Design Templates 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.

Business Design Templates — The Business Side of Design

Mental model

These are the artifacts that leave the team. They are read by people who did not attend the meeting, will not read the Figma, and are deciding whether to fund, approve, or hire.

Lead with the decision you want. A proposal that opens with your process makes the reader hunt for the ask. Put scope, timeline and price in the first screen.
Show the problem before the solution. A case study that opens on the final UI reads as a portfolio piece. One that opens on the broken funnel reads as evidence.
Quantify or say you cannot. "Improved usability" is noise. "Cut checkout abandonment from 71% to 54% over six weeks" is an argument. If you have no number, say what you observed instead of reaching for an adjective.
Scope is a fence, not a wish. Every proposal names what is excluded. The excluded list prevents more disputes than the included one.

Routing

For winning the work — redesign, new-product, design-system, UX-audit and ongoing-retainer proposals: read references/proposal-templates.md.

For presenting — design review decks and stakeholder decks for pitching a direction: read references/pitch-presentation-templates.md.

For telling the story afterwards — the case study narrative structure plus e-commerce and SaaS templates: read references/case-study-templates.md.

For handing off to engineering — Figma handoff practice, the developer checklist, token export and asset export: read references/client-handoff-templates.md.

For documenting the system — design spec format, component documentation and interaction specification: read references/design-documentation.md.

For odds and ends — the patterns that had no home in the files above when this skill was converted to a router: read references/business-supplementary.md.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Business Design Templates AI skill do?

Why use Business Design Templates on TypingMind?

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

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/phazurlabs/sumi/tree/main/skills/business-design-templates. 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 Business Design Templates?

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 Business Design Templates?

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

Is the Business Design Templates AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by phazurlabs 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.
