A collection of ready-to-use DESIGN.md files that Claude Design expands into a full UI scaffold with one drop.

Awesome Claude Design

Upload any DESIGN.md to Claude Design and it scaffolds a full design system (colors, type, components, preview cards, and a working UI kit) in a single shot.

Skip the blank-page design brief, grab a design system inspiration that matches the feel you want, and let Claude Design do the scaffolding.

What is Claude Design?

Claude Design is Anthropic's new design-focused workspace. Instead of generating one-off screens in a chat window, it holds a persistent design system for your project: tokens, components, and preview assets you can actually ship, not just swatches in a chat window.

You give it a starting point (an aesthetic, a vibe, or a DESIGN.md), and it scaffolds the system: color tokens, type scale, buttons, cards, nav, and a working UI kit. The output lands in the project's Design System review tab, organized and inspectable, so every new screen you request stays on-system.

What is DESIGN.md?

DESIGN.md is a single plain-text markdown file that describes a brand's visual language in a format AI agents can actually act on. The concept was first introduced by Google Stitch and built into a real, comparable collection by at 🎨getdesign.md.

The core idea: keep token, rule, and rationale in the same file. A Figma export tells you what to use but skips why. A brand guideline PDF talks to humans ("approachable yet premium") but is too loose for an agent. DESIGN.md sits in the middle. Specific enough for the agent to make its next decision, and carrying the why so it can stay on-system when it hits a case the file never covered.

| File | Who reads it | What it defines | |------|-------------|-----------------| | AGENTS.md | Coding agents | How to build the project | | DESIGN.md | Design agents (Claude Design, Stitch …) | How the project should look and feel |

Claude Design can use DESIGN.md as its source of truth. Hand it one, and the full starter package falls out the other side.

How it works

1. Pick a design system inspiration from the list below, click through to its preview page to inspect the system in detail, then download its DESIGN.md.
2. Open Claude Design. You've got two ways to feed it the file:

Option A. Start from a design system

Go to claude.ai/design/#org, click Create new design system, and on the Set up your design system screen, upload the DESIGN.md under Add assets.

Option B. Start from a prototype

Go to dashboard, create a new prototype, attach the DESIGN.md in the chat, and type: "Create a design system from this DESIGN.md"

Either way, Claude produces a full starter package in m
