Overview

This tutorial covers how to integrate and use Superdesign Agent skills within coding environments such as Cursor, Claude Code, or other coding agents. The Superdesign Agent allows you to create, modify, and manage UI designs by leveraging the full context of your existing codebase—enhancing the design workflow directly from your coding interface.

​
Installation and Setup

1

Install the CLI

Install the Superdesign Command Line Interface (CLI):
npm install -g @superdesign/cli@latest
2

Login

Authorize via browser:
superdesign login
3

Add the Skill

Add the Superdesign skill to your coding agent:
npx skills add superdesigndev/superdesign-skill
Skills can be added at:
  • Project level — Specific to a project, creating an agents folder with Super Design skills
  • Global level — Available across all projects, under a global agents folder

​
Using Superdesign in Claude Code

Simply use the slash command to start designing: 
/superdesign help me design <your prompt>

​
Using Superdesign in Cursor

Additional configuration is required for Cursor:
1

Add a new command

Go to Cursor Settings → Rules and Commands and add a new command named superdesign.
2

Copy skill content

Copy the skill.md content into this command.
3

Use the command

Now you can use /superdesign to invoke the design agent.

​
Features and Functionalities

​
Design Context Awareness

New Projects

The agent generates clear requirements and a style guide for fresh projects.

Existing Projects

The agent analyzes your current UI and creates a superdesign folder containing:
  • A design system file with the entire context of your current design and product
  • Replica HTML of existing pages
This allows the agent to build designs on top of your existing design system.

​
Interactive Design Process

  • The agent prompts for clarifications and additional requirements to align with your needs
  • It proposes multiple design options (banners, UI cards, etc.) for your feedback
  • You can ask the agent to iterate and explore further design variations

​
Flow and Multi-Page Design

Beyond single-page design, you can request the agent to design entire flows (e.g., a “schedule demo” flow). The agent generates multiple pages that are functional with interactive elements like clickable buttons.

​
Implementation and Coding Integration

After finalizing a design:
1

Copy the design prompt

Copy the design prompt from Superdesign.
2

Send to coding agent

Send the prompt to any coding agent to inform implementation.
3

Fetch design context

Request the coding agent to fetch the design context and plan the implementation (typically by enabling “plan mode”).
4

Multi-page support

Multi-select pages to generate comprehensive implementation prompts.
This workflow is consistent across different coding agents (Cursor, Claude Code, etc.), facilitating seamless design-to-code workflows.
