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

Installation

Install the Interface Design Dammyjay 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.
    https://github.com/podo/design-agent-skills/tree/main/skills/interface-design-dammyjay
  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.

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/podo/design-agent-skills.git /tmp/design-agent-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/design-agent-skills/skills/interface-design-dammyjay .claude/skills/interface-design-dammyjay
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Interface Design Dammyjay 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 Interface Design Dammyjay 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 Interface Design Dammyjay 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.

Catalogue stub — full skill: Dammyjay93/interface-design

Decision tree

  1. Is the full skill already installed? Upstream names this skill interface-design, so it installs next to this pointer (the pointer is not replaced).

    • Global: f=~/.agents/skills/interface-design/SKILL.md; [ -f "$f" ] && ! grep -q "^das:" "$f" && echo "installed" || echo "pointer"
    • Project: f=.agents/skills/interface-design/SKILL.md; [ -f "$f" ] && ! grep -q "^das:" "$f" && echo "installed" || echo "pointer"
    • installed → the skill is installed as interface-design, invoke it and proceed
    • pointer → go to step 2
  2. Detect scope, then install:

    bash
    [ -e ~/.agents/skills/interface-design-dammyjay ] && echo "global" || echo "project"

    Global:

    bash
    npx skills add Dammyjay93/interface-design --skill interface-design -g -y

    Project:

    bash
    npx skills add Dammyjay93/interface-design --skill interface-design -y

    Claude Code: send a command as a chat message starting with ! to run it without leaving the conversation.

Claude Code plugin route:

/plugin marketplace add Dammyjay93/interface-design
/plugin install interface-design@interface-design

Heads-up

  • License: MIT

Invoke after install

  • Skill name: interface-design
  • Trigger phrases: "interface design", "dashboard design", "admin panel", "SaaS interface", "dense UI"
  • Claude Code: /interface-design, or "use interface-design to build this dashboard"

What it does

Specialises in crafting dashboards, admin panels, SaaS apps, tools, settings pages, and data interfaces where large amounts of information must be presented clearly. Pushes every UI decision to be explicit (direction, hierarchy, tokens, states, motion) so information-dense layouts remain usable, scannable, and visually polished, and strips generic AI-looking UI. It offers to save the design decisions it makes to .interface-design/system.md in your project so later sessions stay consistent; the file is only written if you say yes. The Claude Code plugin route additionally provides the design-review and design-deslop commands, which the skills CLI install does not.

When NOT to use

  • Marketing pages, landing pages, campaigns, or brand-only work: the skill itself excludes them
  • Broader design-engineering and anti-slop workflows beyond product UI → see ui-craft

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 Interface Design Dammyjay AI skill do?

Craft-first interface design for dashboards, admin panels, SaaS apps, tools, and other information-dense product UI. Applies hierarchy, token, state, and consistency principles to produce interfaces that are both functional and visually coherent. Not for marketing or landing pages.

Why use Interface Design Dammyjay on TypingMind?

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

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/podo/design-agent-skills/tree/main/skills/interface-design-dammyjay. 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 Interface Design Dammyjay?

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 Interface Design Dammyjay?

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

Is the Interface Design Dammyjay AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by podo 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.
