Builds an animation from scratch the way a design engineer would: it chooses the curve, duration and properties, keeps motion off the main thread where it matters, and explains the choice.

- Anthropic's official frontend-design skill, shipped as a plugin in the claude-plugins-official marketplace and as a skill in anthropics/skills.
- It pushes Claude toward distinctive, production-grade interfaces: bold typography and colour choices, context-aware layouts and high-impact motion, instead of the generic 'AI aesthetic'.
Install the Frontend Design (Anthropic) skill

Terminal skillgild install frontend-design --agent claude-codeRegister the SkillGild MCP server with Claude Code.
Terminal claude mcp add --scope user skillgild -- $(command -v skillgild) mcp
How it runs
- Your agent starts a session. SkillGild checks your access and allowance, counts one run, and sends the skill's instructions for this task.
- Your agent does the work with its own model and tools, in your project. SkillGild makes no AI model call.
Use it from code
Start a session, follow its guide, then end it. Create an API key under Account and pass it as a bearer token.

How do I install Frontend Design (Anthropic) in Claude Code?
Run skillgild install frontend-design --agent claude-code and connect the SkillGild MCP server (skillgild mcp). When a task matches, your agent starts a session, which uses one of your 25 free runs this month, and follows the skill's instructions. Use --agent codex, cursor or gemini-cli for other clients.
Is Frontend Design (Anthropic) free?
Yes. It includes 25 free runs every month on SkillGild. Frontend Design (Anthropic) is open source (Apache-2.0) by Anthropic; SkillGild packages it from https://github.com/anthropics/skills at a pinned commit and credits the author.
Does Frontend Design (Anthropic) run on SkillGild?
It runs in your coding agent with your own model. SkillGild checks your monthly allowance and delivers the skill's instructions for each session; it makes no model call and never sees your project unless your agent sends it.
Which agents does Frontend Design (Anthropic) work with?
The project lists Claude Code (plugin); any Agent Skills host via the skills repo. It is a plain Agent Skills folder (SKILL.md plus supporting files), so any client that reads that format can load it.
