| Tokens, specs, CSS vars | `design-system` | External skill |
| shadcn/ui, Tailwind, code | `ui-styling` | External skill |

## Logo Design (Built-in)

55+ styles, 30 color palettes, 25 industry guides. Gemini Nano Banana models.

### Logo: Generate Design Brief

```bash
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/logo/search.py "tech startup modern" --design-brief -p "BrandName"
```

### Logo: Search Styles/Colors/Industries

```bash
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/logo/search.py "minimalist clean" --domain style
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/logo/search.py "tech professional" --domain color
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/logo/search.py "healthcare medical" --domain industry
```

### Logo: Generate with AI

**ALWAYS** generate output logo images with white background.

```bash
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/logo/generate.py --brand "TechFlow" --style minimalist --industry tech
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/logo/generate.py --prompt "coffee shop vintage badge" --style vintage
```

**IMPORTANT:** When scripts fail, try to fix them directly.

After generation, **ALWAYS** ask user about HTML preview via `AskUserQuestion`. If yes, invoke `/ui-ux-pro-max` for gallery.

## CIP Design (Built-in)

50+ deliverables, 20 styles, 20 industries. Gemini Nano Banana (Flash/Pro).

### CIP: Generate Brief

```bash
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/cip/search.py "tech startup" --cip-brief -b "BrandName"
```

### CIP: Search Domains

```bash
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/cip/search.py "business card letterhead" --domain deliverable
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/cip/search.py "luxury premium elegant" --domain style
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/cip/search.py "hospitality hotel" --domain industry
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/cip/search.py "office reception" --domain mockup
```

### CIP: Generate Mockups

```bash
# With logo (RECOMMENDED)
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/cip/generate.py --brand "TopGroup" --logo /path/to/logo.png --deliverable "business card" --industry "consulting"

# Full CIP set
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/cip/generate.py --brand "TopGroup" --logo /path/to/logo.png --industry "consulting" --set

# Pro model (4K text)
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/cip/generate.py --brand "TopGroup" --logo logo.png --deliverable "business card" --model pro

# Without logo
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/cip/generate.py --brand "TechFlow" --deliverable "business card" --no-logo-prompt
```

Models: `flash` (default, `gemini-2.5-flash-image`), `pro` (`gemini-3-pro-image-preview`)

### CIP: Render HTML Presentation

```bash
python3 ~/.claude/skills/design/scripts/cip/render-html.py --brand "TopGroup" --industry "consulting" --images /path/to/cip-output
```

**Tip:** If no logo exists, use Logo Design section above first.

Load `references/social-photos-design.md` for sizes, templates, best practices.

### Social Photos: Workflow

1. **Orchestrate** — `project-management` skill for TODO tasks; parallel subagents for independent work
2. **Analyze** — Parse prompt: subject, platforms, style, brand context, content elements
3. **Ideate** — 3-5 concepts, present via `AskUserQuestion`
4. **Design** — `/ckm:brand` → `/ckm:design-system` → randomly invoke `/ck:ui-ux-pro-max` OR `/ck:frontend-design`; HTML per idea × size
5. **Export** — `chrome-devtools` or Playwright screenshot at exact px (2x deviceScaleFactor)
6. **Verify** — Use Chrome MCP or `chrome-devtools` skill to visually inspect exported designs; fix layout/styling issues and re-export
7. **Report** — Summary to `plans/reports/` with design decisions
8. **Organize** — Invoke `assets-organizing` skill to sort output files and reports

### Social Photos: Key Sizes

### New Design System
