Design Diversity Catalog

Skill by ara.so — Design Skills collection.

This skill enables Claude Code to apply 100 distinct, production-ready design styles to presentations and websites. Each design pack contains precise specifications for color, typography, layout, charts, diagrams, and anti-patterns, preventing the "AI gray slop" problem where all generated designs look identical.

What It Does

The design-pick skill is a consumer skill that:

• Lets you specify a design pack by slug (e.g., web-velvet-dark-boutique) to generate styled content
• Recommends 2-3 packs when you describe a desired aesthetic (e.g., "luxury dark tone presentation")
• Bundles 100 design specifications (50 PPT + 50 web) with full color palettes, typography, spacing systems, and layout rules
• Works offline — all pack specifications are bundled in references/

Key principle: All PPT outputs must be editable native .pptx files, never full-slide PNG renders. Users must be able to edit text, shapes, and colors in PowerPoint.
