Skills on AI agents make Lily even easier
Lily ships focused skills — general, per-framework, and per-subproject — so an agent loads exactly the context it needs and nothing it doesn't.
What skill do you want?
Each tier answers a different question. Load the general skill when you don't know Lily yet. Load a framework skill when you know your framework but not which subproject you need. Load a headless-skill or helpers-skill directly when you already know exactly what you're working on.
- General / maintainer — "What is Lily?" / "How is this
monorepo put together?" —
lily-design-system-skill,lily-design-system-maintainer-skill - Framework umbrella — "What's available for
{framework}, and which piece do I need?" — 8, one
{framework}-skilleach - Headless / helpers — "How exactly do I use
{framework}'s components / *-picker helpers?" — 16, one
{framework}-headless-skilland one{framework}-helpers-skilleach
The eight frameworks
Every framework gets the same three-deep stack. The umbrella skill maps all of that framework's real subprojects — including the example app, which neither of its two sibling skills covers — and points down into them rather than repeating their contracts.
| Framework | Umbrella | Headless | Helpers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Angular | skill | skill | skill |
| Blazor | skill | skill | skill |
| HTML | skill | skill | skill |
| Nunjucks | skill | skill | skill |
| React | skill | skill | skill |
| Svelte | skill | skill | skill |
| Vue | skill | skill | skill |
| Web Components | skill | skill (33/491, partial) | skill |
Web Components is the one exception in both directions: its headless catalog is a deliberate 33-of-491 slice (native custom elements, no framework runtime), and there is no Web Components example app yet — its umbrella skill says so rather than implying one exists.
Add one skill
Each skill is a SKILL.md file — plus supporting files, no build step. Clone the one you need into wherever your Claude Code setup loads
skills from (see the official docs linked above for your project's or
account's skills directory):
git clone https://github.com/LilyDesignSystem/lily-design-system-svelte-skill Working across several frameworks, or on the monorepo itself? Clone the canonical monorepo instead — every one of the 26 skills already lives at its root, alongside the headless libraries, the helpers catalogs, and the example apps they describe.
