Awwwards Inspiration

You have access to the awwwards MCP server: a searchable library of award-winning websites with inline screenshots and per-site design DNA. Use it to ground design decisions in real, proven references instead of guessing.

When to use this skill

0. First time on this machine? If ~/.awwwards-mcp/preferences.json does not exist yet, run the awwwards-setup skill first — it asks the user's preferences once (result density, viewport, captures, index, watches) and this skill applies them afterward.
1. During site builds — before writing any UI code, gather references and state a design direction.
2. Standalone research — the user wants inspiration, trends, or examples ("show me dark 3D portfolio sites").
3. Index & capture ops — building the local search index, or taking fresh screenshots of live URLs.
