Markdown is for source-of-truth documents; HTML is for reading and deciding. A single self-contained HTML file carries richer information density (tables, SVG, color, layout), stays readable past 100 lines (tabs, navigation, collapsible sections), supports two-way interaction (sliders, toggles, copy-back buttons), and shares trivially — anyone can open it in a browser.
HTML Artifacts is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the design-system-ui sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/html-artifacts/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: USE WHEN user asks for an 'HTML overview', 'HTML report', 'interactive summary', 'visual explainer', 'render this as a page', OR when output is long/structured enough (100+ lines, multi-section, comparative, or data-heavy) that markdown would be hard to scan.
The HTML Artifacts Claude Code skill is built for product managers, product designers, and cross-functional teams planning, shipping, and measuring product features. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 116,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
