This skill guides Claude through creating original visual artwork, such as posters or design pieces, delivered as .png or .pdf files. It works in two stages: first drafting a written design philosophy (an aesthetic concept described in a markdown file), then translating that philosophy into an actual visual composition. The instructions stress that the final artifact should be mostly visual, with only minimal, purposeful text, and that the work should avoid resembling generated or template-based design. It also directs Claude to avoid copying any existing artist's work, keeping outputs original. An optional multi-page mode allows producing a set of related but distinct visual pages bundled into one file.
