What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by jpoindexter/design-md-extractor in skill/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Use the local CLI first, then refine the generated markdown from evidence.

Workflow

  1. Choose an output directory.
  2. Run scripts/extract-website-style.sh <url> <out-dir> from this skill folder, or run design-md-extractor extract <url> --out <out-dir> directly when the CLI is globally available.
  3. Read <out-dir>/evidence.json.
  4. Read <out-dir>/DESIGN.md.
  5. Improve the markdown using only supported evidence.
  6. Preserve confidence and known gaps.
  7. Return absolute paths to generated artifacts.

References

  • Read references/design-md-format.md before rewriting DESIGN.md.
  • Read references/evidence-rubric.md when confidence or evidence quality is unclear.
