Decision tree

1. Is the full skill already installed? Check whether the skill at this location still has a das: block:

   • Global: grep -q "^das:" ~/.agents/skills/ai-graphic-design-skill/SKILL.md 2>/dev/null && echo "pointer" || echo "installed"
   • Project: grep -q "^das:" .agents/skills/ai-graphic-design-skill/SKILL.md 2>/dev/null && echo "pointer" || echo "installed"
   • No das: block → full skill installed, invoke it and proceed
   • das: block present → go to step 2

2. Detect scope, then install:

   To detect scope:

   [ -e ~/.agents/skills/ai-graphic-design-skill ] && echo "global" || echo "project"
   

   Global (installed with -g):

   npx skills add designrique/ai-graphic-design-skill --skill ai-graphic-design-skill -g -y
   

   Project (installed without -g):

   npx skills add designrique/ai-graphic-design-skill --skill ai-graphic-design-skill -y
   

   Claude Code: send either command as a chat message starting with ! to run it without leaving the conversation.

What it does

Provides a decision framework mapping 15 AI image and design tools to specific production scenarios: Midjourney for concept ideation and moodboarding, Stable Diffusion for production image generation, ControlNet for precise composition and pose control, plus vectorization pipelines and product mockup generation workflows. Includes a structured 2025-2026 AI Creative Director competency roadmap covering prompt engineering, tool orchestration, and quality control. Helps designers and agents choose the right AI tool for each phase of a graphic design project.

When NOT to use

• Pure code or UI implementation tasks with no image or graphic design component (use taste-skill or ui-craft instead)
• When you need interactive UI components or design systems (use design-consultation or shadcn-ui)
• When the deliverable is a Figma file (use figma-official-skills)
