Install
npx skills add Choy0X/VeyUI
That installs veyUI for the agents on your machine (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, OpenCode, Cline and many more). Then start a new session and ask:
Use veyUI to redesign this landing page.
Other ways to install:
| Method | Command |
|---|
| One agent only | npx skills add Choy0X/VeyUI -a claude-code |
| Claude Code plugin | /plugin marketplace add Choy0X/VeyUI then /plugin install veyui@veyui |
| Gemini CLI extension | gemini extensions install https://github.com/Choy0X/VeyUI |
| Offline, any platform | clone the repository, then run python install.py --all (see installation) |
| Manual | Copy skills/veyui/ into your agent's skills folder (see platforms) |
What it does
Most AI-generated interfaces look the same: centered hero, three feature cards, purple gradient. veyUI gives your agent a design process and the evidence to back it.
- Discover. Reads your project to find what the product really does, then turns capabilities into specific, honest copy.
- Recommend. Proposes project-fit reference directions, each with a verified public example and a clear tradeoff.
- Prototype. Builds three distinct, complete concepts, hosts them locally and reviews them with independent critique.
- Choose. You pick. Nothing is integrated before that.
- Implement. Builds the chosen design in your real stack, web, mobile or desktop.
- Verify. Inspects the rendered result in a real browser or runtime, and reports what was and was not checked.
Use it for landing pages, marketing sites, product apps, dashboards, native screens, design systems, motion and UX audits.
What is inside
| |
|---|
| Reviewed screens | 583 pre-extracted UI-state descriptions (268 mobile, 195 desktop, 120 web), retrievable offline |
| Reference catalog | 384 records with evidence levels and honest rights notes |
| Pattern atlas | 200 original pattern cards |
| Decision guides and flows | 19 guides and 8 documented flows |
| Design modules | 37 reference modules and 8 templates (art direction, motion, components, copy, audit, release checks) |
| Web engine | A pinned copy of Taste Skill: layout recipes, effects, scenes, copy lint and browser checks |
| Concept studio | Scripts that scaffold, host and check three-concept reviews |
Numbers come from the data files in skills/veyui/data/. Run python skills/veyui/scripts/design_library.py stats to see them yourself.
Works with your agent
veyUI follows the open Agent Skills format, so one folder works across tools. The skills CLI places it in the right directory for each agent.
| Agent | Install | Invoke |
|---|
| Claude Code | npx skills add Choy0X/VeyUI -a claude-code or the plugin | /veyui or ask in plain language |
| Codex | npx skills add Choy0X/VeyUI -a codex | $veyui |
| Cursor | npx skills add Choy0X/VeyUI -a cursor | Ask in plain language |
| Gemini CLI | -a gemini-cli or the extension | Ask in plain language |
| GitHub Copilot | -a github-copilot | Ask in plain language |
| Windsurf, Cline, OpenCode, Amp, Roo, Kiro, Goose, Trae, Continue, Junie, Qwen Code, OpenHands, Augment | -a <agent> | Ask in plain language |
| Anything else | Point it at skills/veyui/SKILL.md or use AGENTS.md | Ask in plain language |
Full paths per agent are in docs/platforms.md. Run python install.py --list to print them.
Requirements
- Python 3.10+ for the offline library and concept scaffolding.
- Node 22+ and Chrome, Edge or Chromium for the web checks.
- Internet once, for about 30 MB: the pinned Taste Skill web engine is downloaded on first use and hash-checked (
skills/veyui/scripts/fetch_foundation.py). Everything else, including the offline library, works without it.
- A way to run and preview your project. veyUI does not provide hosting or a browser.
Privacy and data
veyUI has no account, no server, no analytics and no telemetry of its own. It reads files in your project only when your agent runs it, and it writes nothing outside your project and its own skill folder. The offline reference library is local. The only network call veyUI itself makes is the one-time download of the pinned Taste Skill web engine from GitHub (skills/veyui/scripts/fetch_foundation.py), which sends no project data. Anything your coding agent sends to its own model is governed by that agent and its provider, not by veyUI. Installing with the skills CLI reports an anonymous install count to skills.sh unless you set DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1.
Honest limits
veyUI enforces an evidence-based workflow. It cannot guarantee that every model produces excellent design. Final output still needs real rendered inspection, working interactions and your choice. A passing check or a reference count is not visual approval. Reference images for 31 concept studies are not distributed, because their redistribution rights are unverified. Those studies are text only.
Credits
veyUI's web construction engine is Taste Skill by Leonxlnx (MIT) at commit f6b76575f949707b4e3c37cd86cb44b0b98643e8, downloaded on first use and used unmodified. It supplies the layout recipes, effects, scenes, copy linting and browser checks that veyUI drives. Thank you to Leonxlnx for building and open-sourcing it.
veyUI adds the offline reference library, the discovery and recommendation workflow, the three-concept studio with independent review, the evidence checks, and the multi-platform packaging. veyUI is an independent project and is not endorsed by the Taste Skill author.
