A solid UI audit tool that pulls the latest Web Interface Guidelines from Vercel's GitHub repo and checks your code against them. Point it at your HTML, CSS, or component files and it'll flag accessibility issues, design inconsistencies, and UX problems in a clean file:line format. The guidelines stay current since it fetches fresh rules on each run rather than using stale built-in checks. Handy for catching common web standards violations before they ship, especially if you're working fast and might miss obvious accessibility or usability issues.

copywriting

Here's a copywriting skill that actually knows what it's doing. It checks for existing product marketing context first instead of asking redundant questions, then walks through audience research, value props, and page structure systematically. Gives you headline formulas, CTA guidelines, and section-by-section frameworks for homepages, landing pages, pricing pages, and feature pages. References specific copywriting principles like benefits over features and customer language over company jargon. Provides multiple headline options with rationale and includes annotations explaining the strategic choices. Works well with the copy-editing skill for polishing drafts.

This handles the full lifecycle of Word document manipulation through Claude. It reads existing .docx files using pandoc, creates new ones with the docx-js library, and edits documents by unpacking the XML, modifying it, and repacking. The skill includes validation checks, proper page sizing for US Letter vs A4, table formatting that works across platforms, and handles tracked changes. It's built for developers who need to automate document workflows or generate professional reports programmatically. The code examples are solid and it covers the gotchas like dual table widths and DXA units that trip people up when working with Office formats.

writing-plans

Takes specs and generates step-by-step implementation plans with actual code snippets, exact file paths, and specific test commands. Maps out file structure first, then breaks everything into 2-5 minute tasks following TDD cycles. Saves plans as markdown with checkbox syntax in `docs/superpowers/plans/`. Runs self-review checks for placeholder content and type consistency. Works best when you have clear requirements but need to think through the implementation approach before coding. The bite-sized granularity keeps you from getting stuck on large, vague tasks.

This is test-driven development applied to writing documentation. Instead of testing code, you're testing whether agents actually follow your instructions. You write pressure scenarios with subagents, watch them fail without your skill present, then write the skill document to address those specific failure modes. The approach catches the gap between what you think you communicated and what agents actually understood. It includes solid guidance on skill structure, Claude search optimization, and when skills are worth creating versus just putting notes in project files. The TDD mapping table alone makes the mental model click.

doc-coauthoring

anthropics/skills

99.3k

A structured three-stage workflow for writing documentation, proposals, and technical specs with Claude. Starts with intensive context gathering where you dump everything relevant while Claude asks clarifying questions to close knowledge gaps. Then builds the document section by section through brainstorming, curation, and iterative refinement. Finally tests the draft with a fresh Claude instance that has no context to catch blind spots before real readers see it. Creates artifacts or markdown files as scaffolding. Most useful when you're starting a substantial doc from scratch and want to ensure it actually works for your audience instead of just making sense to you.

brand-guidelines

Applies Anthropic's official brand colors and typography to presentations, documents, and other visual artifacts. Automatically sets headings to Poppins font, body text to Lora, and cycles through the company's orange/blue/green accent palette for shapes and highlights. Uses specific RGB values like #141413 for dark text and #d97757 for primary accents. Falls back gracefully to Arial and Georgia when custom fonts aren't installed. Honestly, it's narrow in scope but does exactly what it says—turns generic layouts into properly branded materials without manually hunting down hex codes or font specs.
