Google Stitch — Skill Bundle
This folder contains 6 sub-skills for working with Google Stitch, a design-to-code platform with an MCP server. Each sub-skill has its own SKILL.md with full instructions.
Prerequisites
Most skills require the Stitch MCP Server to be connected. The shadcn-ui skill works independently with the shadcn MCP server or CLI.
🔀 Pipeline Orchestration Protocol (READ THIS FIRST)
YOU MUST follow this protocol. Do not just load one sub-skill and stop. The Stitch bundle is a pipeline — each skill feeds into the next. Your job is to guide the user through the full journey, suggesting the next step after each skill completes.

How to Orchestrate
After completing ANY sub-skill, you MUST:
- Tell the user what was accomplished
- Explain what the next logical step in the pipeline is
- Ask if they want to continue to the next step
- If yes, load that sub-skill's
SKILL.mdand proceed
Example flow:
✅ design-md complete → "Your DESIGN.md is ready. Next step: I can polish
your first page prompt using enhance-prompt so Stitch generates a
higher-quality result. Want to continue?"
✅ enhance-prompt complete → "Your prompt is optimized. Next step: I can
send this to Stitch and start building pages with stitch-loop. Ready?"
✅ stitch-loop complete → "Your site pages are built. Two options now:
1. react-components — Convert these HTML pages into production React/TS
2. remotion — Create a walkthrough video showcasing the screens
Which would you like?"
✅ react-components complete → "Your React components are ready. You might
also want to:
• Add shadcn/ui components for polished form inputs, buttons, dialogs
• Create a remotion walkthrough video of the original designs
Want either of those?"
Decision Tree: Where to Start
Not every user starts at Step 1. Use this decision tree:
| User says... | Start at | Then suggest... |
|---|---|---|
| "Build me a site with Stitch" | design-md (Step 1) |
Full pipeline |
| "I have a Stitch project, make it consistent" | design-md (Step 1) |
enhance-prompt → stitch-loop |
| "Generate a page with Stitch" | enhance-prompt (Step 2) |
stitch-loop |
| "I have Stitch HTML, make it React" | react-components (Step 4) |
shadcn-ui for components |
| "Make a video of my Stitch screens" | remotion (Step 5) |
Done (standalone) |
| "I need UI components for my React app" | shadcn-ui (Companion) |
Done (standalone) |
| "Improve my Stitch prompt" | enhance-prompt (Step 2) |
stitch-loop |
| "I already have DESIGN.md, build pages" | stitch-loop (Step 3) |
react-components |

shadcn CLI or MCP |
Sub-Skill Directory
Read the linked SKILL.md for any sub-skill before using it.
1. design-md — Design System Extraction (STEP 1)
What: Analyzes Stitch project screens and generates a semantic DESIGN.md file documenting the visual design system (colors, typography, depth, layout, component styles).
When to use:
- Starting a new multi-page project and need a design system reference
- Onboarding to an existing Stitch project
- Need consistent design language across agent-generated screens
Outputs: DESIGN.md file
➡️ Next step: enhance-prompt — Use the DESIGN.md to craft polished prompts for page generation.
2. enhance-prompt — Prompt Enhancement (STEP 2)
What: Transforms vague UI ideas into polished, structured prompts optimized for Stitch generation. Adds UI/UX keywords, design system context, and page structure.
When to use:
- User gives a vague prompt like "make me a login page"
- Previous Stitch generation produced poor results
- Need to inject
DESIGN.mdtokens into a prompt
Outputs: Enhanced prompt text or next-prompt.md file
➡️ Next step: stitch-loop — Feed the enhanced prompt into the iterative build loop to generate the actual page.
3. stitch-loop — Iterative Build Loop (STEP 3)
What: Autonomous baton-passing loop for building multi-page websites. Each iteration reads a task (next-prompt.md), generates a page, integrates it, updates docs, and writes the next task.
When to use:
- Building a complete multi-page site from scratch
- Need autonomous, continuous page generation
- Want a structured sitemap-driven build process
Depends on: design-md (for DESIGN.md), enhance-prompt (for baton prompts)
Outputs: Full site in site/public/, updated SITE.md
➡️ Next step: Choose one or both:
react-components— Convert the generated HTML pages into production-ready React/TypeScript components.remotion— Create a walkthrough video showcasing the finished screens.
4. react-components — Design to React (STEP 4)
What: Converts Stitch-generated HTML into modular React/TypeScript components with proper props interfaces, mock data layers, and AST-based validation.
When to use:
- Converting a Stitch screen into production React code
- Need type-safe, modular component extraction from HTML
- Want automated validation of component architecture
Outputs: React components in src/, mock data in src/data/mockData.ts
➡️ Next step: Consider:
shadcn-ui— Replace custom UI primitives (buttons, inputs, dialogs) with shadcn/ui components for a polished, accessible component library.remotion— Create a walkthrough video if you haven't already.
5. remotion — Walkthrough Videos (STEP 5)
What: Generates walkthrough videos from Stitch project screenshots using Remotion, with smooth transitions, zoom effects, and text overlays.
When to use:
- Need a video showcase of designed screens
- Want to create a professional app walkthrough
- Building a demo reel from Stitch designs
Note: For general Remotion work (not Stitch-specific), use the main
remotionskill instead — it has 25+ rule files from Remotion's official repo.
Outputs: Remotion project + rendered .mp4
➡️ This is typically the final step in the pipeline. No automatic next step, but you can suggest sharing/publishing the video.
6. shadcn-ui — Component Library (COMPANION)
What: Expert guidance for integrating shadcn/ui components — discovery, installation, customization, variants, blocks, and accessibility. Works with the shadcn MCP server or CLI.
When to use:
- Setting up shadcn/ui in a new project
- Installing or customizing shadcn components
- Building forms, data tables, auth layouts, or dashboards
- Need component variant patterns with
cva - After
react-components— replace custom primitives with shadcn/ui
Note: This skill works independently of Stitch. It's useful for any React/Next.js project. Think of it as a companion skill that plugs in alongside the main pipeline, especially after
react-components.
Outputs: Installed components in components/ui/, configured components.json
Typical Workflows
Full Pipeline (New Project)
1. design-md → Analyze an existing screen → get DESIGN.md
2. enhance-prompt → Write a prompt for the next page → inject design tokens
3. stitch-loop → Generate page → integrate → write next baton → repeat
4. react-components → Convert final HTML pages to production React
5. remotion → Create a walkthrough video of the finished product
Quick Build (One Page)
1. enhance-prompt → Polish the user's idea into a great prompt
2. Generate directly with Stitch MCP → get HTML
3. react-components → Convert to React (optional)
Design System Only
1. design-md → Document an existing project's visual language
Video Only
1. remotion → Create a walkthrough video from existing Stitch screenshots
Component Library Only

Standalone Usage
shadcn-ui— Use anytime for React/Next.js UI component work (no Stitch needed)design-md— Use standalone to document any project's design systemenhance-prompt— Use standalone to improve any UI generation prompt
