Global Installation & Usage Methods

Depending on which coding assistant or chat platform you are using, choose one of the three installation methods below:

Method 1: Global Terminal Command (For Claude Code / OpenCode)

Since Claude Code reads skills from your home directory, cloning the repository there automatically enables the /brand-creator command globally across all workspaces.

# Run this in your terminal to install globally:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && git clone https://github.com/Dukeio/brand-creator.git ~/.claude/skills/brand-creator

How to run: Start Claude Code in any project directory and run:

/brand-creator

---

Method 2: Direct Repository Link (Zero-Installation for Web/Chat Agents)

For browser-based AI chats (like Claude.ai, Gemini Advanced, or ChatGPT) that have web browsing enabled, you can load the skill directly by pasting the repository link at the start of your chat:

"Act as my brand creator agent. Read the instructions from this repository link and ask me the first question to begin: https://github.com/Dukeio/brand-creator"

---

Method 3: Global Rules (For Cursor, Antigravity & Gemini CLI)

You can configure this skill to run globally without copy-pasting it into individual project folders:

• For Cursor: Copy the contents of SKILL.md and paste it into Cursor Settings > Beta > Rules for AI. Cursor will automatically apply the workflow to all chats.
• For Antigravity & Gemini CLI: Copy the SKILL.md instructions into your global prompting folder:

  mkdir -p ~/.gemini/prompting && cp ~/.claude/skills/brand-creator/SKILL.md ~/.gemini/prompting/brand-creator.md

How It Works

The skill guides the agent to walk you through a structured 4-phase design process:

1. Context & Inspiration: Analyzes any design samples, images, or colors you supply to match your desired aesthetic.
2. Interactive Discovery: Prompts you with simple questions - one at a time - to capture your brand name, target channels, colors, typography preferences, and a writing sample.
3. Style Proposals: Generates 3 distinct design options (e.g., Warm Industrial Grid, Cyber Tech, Textured Paper) with exact color hexes and font recommendations for you to choose from.
4. Markdown Generation: Writes a complete brand-guidelines.md file to your project root. This includes a custom color table, text-shadow readability specs, font override rules, visual layouts, a Do/Don't writing rule table calibrated to your voice, and integration guidelines for the Humanizer Skill.
