## What is oh-my-design?

**oh-my-design (OmD)** is a design system for AI coding agents. It turns Claude Code / Codex / OpenCode / Cursor into a senior product designer with a working memory of your brand. You install once. After that, you just describe what you want — components, screens, copy, assets, charts — and the agent applies your project's design system and ships. `DESIGN.md` is the brand spec ([Google Stitch](https://stitch.withgoogle.com/docs/design-md/overview/) tokens + a brand-philosophy layer: Voice / Narrative / Principles / Personas / States / Motion), and 400+ real-company DESIGN.md files ship in this package. **No API keys. No external infra. Everything runs inside your existing CLI session.**

## Install

```bash
npx oh-my-design-cli install-skills
```

Then restart your agent (Cmd+Q in Claude Code, then relaunch) so the new skills + agents are loaded.

That is the only CLI command you will run. Everything else is natural language to your agent.

The installer asks **where** to install: **Project** (`./.claude/skills` — this project only, the default) or **Global** (`~/.claude/skills` — every project; skills + sub-agents, leaves your global hooks/settings untouched). Skip the prompt with `--global` for the user-level install.

## Your first 60 seconds

This is the whole point: one prompt turns into a `DESIGN.md` your agent remembers across every future session.

1. Install (above), then **restart your agent** (Cmd+Q, relaunch) so it loads the new skills.

2. In your project, type your first prompt — copy this exactly:

   > Set up our design system — Toss-style, for a family meal-tracking app.

   Your agent runs **`omd:init`**: it recommends a reference from the 400 real-company catalog, asks you to confirm, and writes **`DESIGN.md`** to your project root. (`omd:sync` then wires up the `CLAUDE.md` / `AGENTS.md` / Cursor shims so every agent reads it automatically.)

   **That `DESIGN.md` is your activation — your agent now remembers your brand.**

3. Now build against it:

   > Design the home screen.

   The agent reads `DESIGN.md` and ships brand-correct UI. No re-explaining your design system, ever again.

Don't want Toss? Any brand works — `Stripe-style`, `Linear-clone B2B SaaS`, `Karrot-style marketplace`. Browse the full catalog at [oh-my-design.kr/design-systems](https://oh-my-design.kr/design-systems).

## Supported agents

| Agent | Channel | What gets installed |
|---|---|---|
| **Claude Code** | `--agent claude-code` (default) | Full bundle — skills, 16 sub-agents, hooks, data under `.claude/` |
| **Codex** | `--agent codex` | Skill bundle at `.agents/skills/` (official discovery path) |
| **OpenCode** | `--agent opencode` | Skill bundle at `.opencode/skills/` |
| **Cursor** | `--agent cursor` | First-class rules channel — `.cursor/rules/omd-design.mdc` shim + the shared `.claude/data` catalog (no skills/hooks) |

The default install targets every detected agent; pass `--agent <name>` to install a single channel.

## What's inside

**18 skills · 16 sub-agents · 400 quality-graded references · activation hooks** — installed by the one command above.

- **Skills** — core flow (`omd:init` / `omd:apply` / `omd:harness` / `omd:sync` / `omd:remember` / `omd:learn` / `omd:taste` — say "what are my preferences" to see everything the loop has learned, pending, or snoozed), live capture + assets (`omd:reference-capture` / `omd:asset-fetch` / `omd:experiment-gallery`), the v0.2 agent layer (`omd:orchestrator` / `omd:kr-writer` / `omd:locale-adapter` / `omd:designer-review` / `omd:final-qa` / `omd:codex-image`), the `omd:feel` interface-quality skill (113 provenance-graded HIG / Material / WCAG rules that apply + audit motion, spacing, type, and a11y), plus the standalone `claude-design` skill that drives claude.ai/design from your terminal.
- **Sub-agents** — `omd-master` + 15 specialists (UX research, UI generation, asset curation, microcopy, a11y audit, persona testing, critique, …).
- **References** — 400 real-company `DESIGN.md` files with explicit evidence/quality status. Every reference is also served as raw markdown at `oh-my-design.kr/<id>/design.md`, so agents can fetch it directly.
- **Hooks** — UserPromptSubmit / SessionStart / PostToolUse activation so the skills trigger on natural language, not just slash commands.

Full skill-by-skill and agent-by-agent reference: **[oh-my-design.kr/docs](https://oh-my-design.kr/docs)**.

The old catalog MCP transport is retired. Skills and agents consume the local catalog or the raw `/<id>/design.md` route directly; the historical implementation remains under `packages/mcp/` as an archive.

## Upgrading

```bash
npx oh-my-design-cli@latest install-skills
```

Idempotent. Managed files (those carrying the `<!-- omd:installed-skill -->` marker) are refreshed in place; files you edited are left untouched (`skipped-drift`) unless you pass `--force`. Restart your agent after re-running.

```bash
npx oh-my-design-cli --version       # what your project currently uses
npm view oh-my-design-cli version    # latest on the registry
```

What changed each release — including anything that needs more than a re-install — is in [CHANGELOG.md](https://github.com/kwakseongjae/oh-my-design/blob/HEAD/CHANGELOG.md).
