Claude Website Design Stack

A ready-to-clone Claude Code project that makes the agent genuinely good at website design — not by hoping for better output, but by wiring in the three things generic AI design is missing: a knowledge layer, a taste layer, and a visual feedback layer.

Most AI design fails because the model never sees what it built and has no opinionated point of view. This repo fixes both: Claude plans with a real design database, commits to a distinctive aesthetic, then opens the page in a browser and iterates on what it sees — and self-reviews against WCAG AA before finishing.

The stack

Layer	Tool	What it adds
🧠 Knowledge	ui-ux-pro-max	84 UI styles, 192 color palettes, 73 font pairings, 99 UX rules, Core Web Vitals, 22 stacks — searchable, turned into a concrete design system
🎨 Taste	frontend-design (official Anthropic)	Forces a real aesthetic commitment before any CSS; kills "AI slop" defaults
🧩 Components	shadcn MCP	Search/add production components by natural language
👁️ Visual feedback	@playwright/mcp + chrome-devtools-mcp	Claude opens a real browser, screenshots, reads the console, exercises states, and fixes what it sees
✅ Automated review	design-review subagent + /design-review	7-phase audit across viewports: WCAG AA, responsive, interaction states

Quickstart

# 1. Clone and enter
git clone https://github.com/YMungerDev/claude-website-design-stack
cd claude-website-design-stack

# 2. Install the skills/plugins + Playwright browser
./scripts/setup.sh

# 3. Open Claude Code — the MCP servers and CLAUDE.md workflow load automatically
claude

Then just ask for UI work. Claude will plan → commit to a look → build → screenshot and iterate → run /design-review. See docs/WORKFLOW.md for a full walkthrough.

Try it in 30 seconds

> Build a pricing section for a developer tool. Plan it with ui-ux-pro-max,
> commit to a distinctive look, then screenshot it at mobile and desktop and fix any issues.

Standalone audit (no MCP needed)

The same checks are available as a plain script for local runs and CI:

node scripts/design-audit.mjs --url http://localhost:3000 --out audit-output
# or audit a static file
node scripts/design-audit.mjs --file ./index.html

It screenshots 7 viewport tiers (360 → 1920 px) and reports heuristic findings (horizontal overflow, missing focus styles, unsized media, contrast risks, tap-target size). See examples/juniper-audit/ for a real report.

Requirements

• Node 18+ and Python 3.x
• Claude Code with plugins enabled (/plugin)

Built as a starter for teams who want Claude Code to ship distinctive, accessible, production-grade web UI instead of generic AI output.
