canvas-design

canvas-design is a skill for creating beautiful visual art in PNG and PDF documents, applying design philosophy and aesthetic principles to produce posters, illustrations, and other static pieces. It is aimed at users who want to generate polished visual art rather than functional UI, and it is triggered by phrases such as "canvas design", "visual art", "poster design", "create poster", "illustration", and the Chinese terms "海报" and "插画". The skill is curated from Anthropic's official skills repository and is categorized under image-generation.

As published here, this entry is a catalogue advertisement within Open Design: its purpose is to make the agent aware of the skill during planning so it can be discovered and invoked. The full workflow — including the original assets, scripts, and references — lives in the upstream bundle at Anthropic's skills repository. To run the complete skill, the user installs the upstream bundle into their active agent's skills directory, then asks the agent to invoke it by name (canvas-design) or via one of the listed trigger phrases.

The skill operates in image mode within the image-generation category. It suits designers, marketers, and creators who need static visual pieces like posters and illustrations. Note that this particular entry is a lightweight catalogue reference: the source documentation describes what the skill does and how to install and trigger it, but the detailed step-by-step production workflow is contained in the upstream repository rather than in this entry, so users should consult the upstream README for exact asset paths and usage details.
