# Anthropic Design Plugin

The design plugin from Anthropic's Knowledge Work Plugins, built primarily for Cowork and also working in Claude Code. Six slash commands — /critique, /design-system, /handoff, /ux-copy, /accessibility, /research-synthesis — plus skills Claude applies on its own: structured critique of usability, hierarchy and consistency; WCAG 2.1 AA audits; design-system audits for naming drift and hardcoded values; microcopy, error messages and empty states; research synthesis into themes and recommendations; and engineering handoff specs covering tokens, states and edge cases. Each works from a description or a screenshot. Installing it also pre-configures nine MCP connectors (Figma, Slack, Linear, Asana, Atlassian, Notion, Intercom, plus Google Calendar and Gmail entries with no endpoint set); each needs its own sign-in before it does anything.
