From the source SKILL.md

A company's visual identity lives in a DESIGN.md at the project root — the open spec from Google Labs (Apache-2.0, 2026). It pairs machine-readable design tokens (YAML frontmatter) with human-readable rationale (prose), so any AI tool renders the brand the same way across sessions. This skill reads that file and applies it; if none exists, it scaffolds one.

What this skill does

Applying Visual Identity is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the design-creative sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/applying-visual-identity/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when the user wants output to follow a company's brand / visual identity, or asks to set one up — "use our brand", "make it on-brand", "here's our identity", "create a DESIGN.md".
