Use when designing anything OUTSIDE the ColdIQ brand — client demos, lead magnets, side projects, experiments, post visuals — and the work involves visual/UI decisions. Routes between grabbing components or animations only vs running the full art-direction + components workflow. Triggers: "fais un design hors ColdIQ", "nouvelle page/app/dashboard" without an established look, "ajoute un composant/une animation", "quel style utiliser", "design ce demo".

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Design Director — supervises design-packages + design-stack

## What this supervises

- **`design-packages/`** (same folder) — 44 complete art directions: tokens, type, CSS system, preview. Answers *"what should this look like?"*
- **`design-stack/`** (same folder) — 16 external component galleries with verified registry endpoints. Answers *"where do I get the building blocks?"*
- Out of scope: ColdIQ-branded work → the `design-pack` house system governs; this skill steps aside.

## The decision — which mode?

Ask one question: **does a visual direction already exist for this surface?**

| Situation | Mode |
|---|---|
| Existing page/app with an established look; user wants a component, chart, animation, micro-interaction added or upgraded | **A — Components only** |
| New page/site/dashboard from scratch; no tokens, no direction; or user asks "make a design", "choose a style" | **B — Full workflow** |
| Existing surface but user says it looks bad / wants a rebrand or restyle | **B** (direction first — components aren't the problem) |
| User explicitly names a direction ("use forge", "dark terminal vibe") | **B, skipping the browse step** |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add cold-iq/coldiq-s-gtm-skills/design-director@sha256:1a8bcb5b1815c421

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260728.d5af970, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
