OpenClaw Skill Adaptation

This project borrows ideas from selected skills in the OpenClaw skills repo and adapts them to DesignerCEP's Photoshop-first workflow.

Upstream skills used

• photoshop-automator

  • Source: skills/abdul-karim-mia/photoshop-automator
  • URL: https://github.com/openclaw/skills/tree/main/skills/abdul-karim-mia/photoshop-automator
  • What we adopted:
    • Treat the active document as the primary execution context
    • Warn about modal dialogs blocking Photoshop automation
    • Require exact layer targeting instead of guessing
    • Prefer short, reversible automation chains

• ui-ux-pro-max-0-1-0

  • Source: skills/15349185792/ui-ux-pro-max-0-1-0
  • URL: https://github.com/openclaw/skills/tree/main/skills/15349185792/ui-ux-pro-max-0-1-0
  • What we adopted:
    • Triage before execution
    • Structured deliverables instead of vague design advice
    • A design-system style way of thinking about layout, hierarchy, spacing, and goals

• ui-designer-skill

  • Source: skills/1999azzar/ui-designer-skill
  • URL: https://github.com/openclaw/skills/tree/main/skills/1999azzar/ui-designer-skill
  • What we adopted:
    • Stronger visual-language analysis
    • Style and palette vocabulary
    • Better phrasing for aesthetic direction and accessibility-minded critique

Internal mapping in DesignerCEP

• ps-generalist

  • Strengthened with Photoshop automation guardrails from photoshop-automator

• ps-layout-designer

  • Strengthened with triage and deliverables from ui-ux-pro-max
  • Enhanced with visual-language cues from ui-designer-skill

• creative-direction-strategist

  • New internal skill
  • Uses image-aware design-direction analysis when the user provides a reference image
  • Bridges "design thinking" into concrete Photoshop actions

• visual-analysis-advisor

  • Enriched with more designer-facing visual analysis language

Notes

• We intentionally did not copy upstream skills verbatim into the product.
• The goal is to preserve DesignerCEP's current Vue + FastAPI + Photoshop-tool architecture while borrowing useful planning and safety patterns.
• Upstream skills are references; the runtime behavior is driven by Server/app/api/v1/ai_skills.py and Server/app/api/v1/ai_llm.py.
