Design skills for Claude Code - for designers who work in code but don't live there.
npx claudepluginhub madebynoam/dcodeDesign skills for Claude Code - JTBD framing, UI copy, component finding, and pattern mining for designers who work in code.
A toolkit for designers who work in code but don't live there.
dcode = design + code. These skills bridge the gap between "I have Figma" and "I need to ship this."
In Claude Code, run:
/plugin marketplace add madebynoam/dcode
/plugin install dcode
Then restart Claude Code to load the skills.

/dcode:reflect
Find UI components from screenshots, route paths, or component names.
The core designer superpower: "I see this button in the app... where's the code?" Give it a screenshot, and it finds the component. Works with React, Vue, Angular, and other component-based frameworks.
| Input | Output |
|---|---|
| Screenshot of a pricing card | PricingCard component location, styles, related files |
settings/profile | Files for the profile settings page |
DatePicker | Component definition, usage examples, styles |
Command: /dcode:find <target>
Reframe features and PRDs around the user's job.
Takes a feature idea, PRD, or spec and asks: "What job is the user hiring this for?" Rewrites the definition so success is measured by the job, not the feature. Born from restructuring A4A's dashboard IA around Jobs to Be Done.
| Input | Output |
|---|---|
| "Referrals page" | Job statement + reframed scope + placement rationale |
| PRD text | Flagged feature-centric language + job-centric rewrites |
| "Where should this feature live?" | Placement recommendation based on which job it serves |
Command: /dcode:jtbd-frame [feature or PRD text]
Rewrite UI copy through a Jobs to Be Done lens.
Every label, placeholder, helper, and CTA rewritten to reflect the user's actual goal instead of the system's internal model. More focused than dcode:uxcopy -- specifically JTBD, not a multi-framework audit.
| Element | System-framed | Job-framed |
|---|---|---|
| Header | (none) | "Send this to your client" |
| Field | "Custom message" | "Personal note" |
| Helper | (none) | "Builds trust and shows this comes from you" |
| CTA | "Submit" | "Send to client" |
Command: /dcode:jtbd-copy [text or file]
Improve UI microcopy using proven UX writing frameworks.
Turn "Submit" into "Get started." Audit a component for bland buttons, vague errors, and empty states. Apply industry-standard frameworks:
| Framework | Turns this... | Into this... |
|---|---|---|
| JTBD | "Submit" | "Get my results" |
| Benefit-first | "Enable notifications" | "Never miss updates" |
| Error patterns | "Invalid input" | "Email looks wrong. Try [email protected]" |
| Empty states | "No results" | "No projects yet. Create one to get started." |
| Loading states | "Loading..." | "Finding your files..." |
| Confirmation | "Are you sure?" | "This will delete all data. Continue?" |
| Voice & tone | - | Formal - casual, serious - playful spectrums |
| 4 C's checklist | - | Clear, Concise, Conversational, Consistent |
Interactive audit mode - Walk through each copy item with choices. Skip, apply, or hit r to apply your choice to all remaining items of the same type. Context-aware: auto-detects the file you're working on.
| Mode | Usage |
|---|---|
| Suggest | /dcode:uxcopy "Submit" - Framework-based alternatives |
| Audit | /dcode:uxcopy -audit - Interactive walkthrough |
| Batch | /dcode:uxcopy -audit --batch - Table view, no prompts |
| Reference | /dcode:uxcopy -list - Show all frameworks |
Command: /dcode:uxcopy [text] [-audit] [-list] [--batch]
Turn productive sessions into reusable skills.
At the end of a session, this skill analyzes what you did and suggests patterns worth automating. It's how these skills were born - and how you'll create your own.
Command: /dcode:mine
Capture learnings before they fade.
A guided reflection for the end of a work session. Surfaces what you learned (technical and soft skills), how you feel, and creates a searchable record of growth over time.
Command: /dcode:reflect [session-name]
