How does the design philosophy step work?

Before creating the visual, the skill generates a 4-6 paragraph manifesto covering form, space, color, and rhythm, ensuring the final artwork has a cohesive and professional aesthetic foundation.

What is the canvas-design skill?

The canvas-design skill is a specialized tool for Claude Code that allows the AI to create sophisticated visual art, posters, and documents following professional design philosophies.

Can this skill be used for commercial projects?

Yes. The skill is programmed to create original visual designs and avoid copying existing artists' work to ensure copyright compliance.

What file formats can the canvas-design skill generate?

It specifically outputs high-quality .png and .pdf files, alongside .md files that detail the design philosophy behind the creation.

Is the text in the designs customizable?
