studio-generator

ui-studio

A self-expanding studio generator. Creates specialized Claude Code studios for any tech stack by inferring patterns from existing code or accepting user-defined conventions.

What it does

ui-studio generates Claude Code plugins ("studios") tailored to a specific project. Each studio ships with:

• An MCP server exposing patterns and guides for the stack
• A session-start hook that injects orchestrator context
• Rules and skills for building features in that stack

Studios are installed to ~/.claude/plugins/ and registered in ~/.claude/settings.json automatically.

Requirements

• Bun >= 1.0
• Claude Code

Install

git clone https://github.com/dvrd/ui-studio
cd ui-studio
bun install

Then register the studio-generator plugin in ~/.claude/settings.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ui-studio-generator": {
      "command": "bun",
      "args": ["/path/to/ui-studio/generator/index.ts"]
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Code. The generator is now available as an MCP tool and via the /create-studio skill.

Usage

Option 1 — from existing code

Point the generator at a project directory. It detects the stack and infers patterns from your handlers, services, components, and routes.

create_studio(
  name: "myapp-studio",
  project_path: "/path/to/myapp"
)

Option 2 — from scratch

Describe the stack and provide conventions manually.

create_studio(
  name: "nextjs-studio",
  stack_description: "Next.js 14 + Drizzle ORM + Stripe + Clerk auth",
  user_conventions: "Use server actions for mutations. Keep components in src/components/..."
)

Option 3 — interactive CLI

bun run generator/cli.ts

A terminal wizard walks through name, project path, and stack description step by step.

Expand an existing studio

After adding more code to a project, refresh the studio's inferred patterns:

expand_studio(name: "myapp-studio", project_path: "/path/to/myapp")

List / remove studios

list_studios()
remove_studio(name: "myapp-studio")

Built-in studios

web-studio (stack-agnostic)

plugins/web-studio/ works with any web framework. It uses a 3-phase step protocol (Analyze → Do → Verify) and 3-layer intent routing.

Supported stacks: Go+Templ+HTMX, Next.js/React, SvelteKit/Svelte, Nuxt/Vue — and any other web framework through universal patterns.

MCP servers: web-patterns (universal patterns + stack adapters), design-system (component docs), chrome-devtools (visual verification), navigator (workflow graph walker).

go-studio (Go SaaS stack)

plugins/go-studio/ is a fully built studio for the standard Go SaaS stack:
