Design Doc

Checked
diskd-ai·vlatest·writing

Automatically generates comprehensive design documents from prompts, outlining architecture, features, and implementation details.

Install on your platform

Showing Claude Code. One command installs this skill into any of the agents below.

  1. 1

    Run this in your project

    terminal
    $ npx skills add diskd-ai/design-doc --skill design-doc -a claude-code
  2. Uses the open-source skills CLI and needs Node.js. Add -g to install it for your user instead of this project.

Install target

Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned diskd-ai/design-doc at c9eb963fe8.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

design-doc

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to generate comprehensive design documentation for software projects. It structures technical ideas into clear, actionable specifications that developers can use to build features or systems efficiently.

When to use it

  • You need to translate a rough concept or wireframe into a formal technical specification.
  • A team requires a shared reference document before starting backend or frontend implementation.
  • You want to ensure consistency in architecture decisions across different parts of an application.
  • You are prototyping and need to validate the logic flow without writing production code yet.

Key capabilities

  • Generates structured design documents from natural language descriptions.
  • Organizes technical requirements, data models, and system flows.
  • Creates documentation suitable for handoff between product managers and engineers.

Example prompts

  • "Create a design doc for a real-time chat feature including message storage schema and WebSocket event flow."
  • "Write a design document for an authentication system using OAuth2 with refresh token rotation."
  • "Draft a technical design spec for a microservices architecture handling high-volume order processing."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure you provide enough context about the tech stack or constraints when asking for a design doc, as the output quality depends on these details. This skill focuses on documentation generation rather than code implementation or testing strategies.
