$ARGUMENTS

Instructions

Visualize the user's request as an interactive single HTML file. First, read references/common-rules.md to review common rules.

Type Determination

Determine the type from the first argument ($0).

Argument Type Filename Pattern
mockup UI mockup (high-fidelity) mockup-{name}.html
wireframe Wireframe (low-fidelity, hand-drawn style) wireframe-{name}.html
erd ERD erd-{name}.html
flow Flowchart / Sequence diagram flow-{name}.html
chart Data chart chart-{name}.html
slides Presentation slides-{name}.html
arch Architecture diagram arch-{name}.html
dashboard Composite dashboard dashboard-{name}.html
timeline Timeline / Gantt chart timeline-{name}.html
mindmap Mindmap mindmap-{name}.html
kanban Kanban board kanban-{name}.html
table Interactive data table table-{name}.html

No match: Infer the type from the request content. If unable to infer, ask the user. When inferred, use visual-{name}.html as the filename.

{name} rule: Extract the core noun from the request and convert to kebab-case. e.g., "user login form" → login-form, "payment flow" → payment-flow.

Input Handling

  • File path provided: Read and analyze the file, then visualize. e.g., /html-visual erd schema.prisma → Analyze the Prisma schema to auto-generate ERD
  • Existing HTML modification: Read and modify the existing file. Do not recreate from scratch.
  • Natural language only: Infer the type, then generate.

Context Gathering

  • Description is sufficient: Generate immediately (e.g., "simple login form mockup")
  • Project code reference needed: Read code/schema/API first (e.g., "our project's ERD", "current payment flow")
  • Criterion: If the request contains project context references like "our", "current", "project's", read the code first.

Type-Specific Guides

mockup

  • Device frame: Actual device frame shape for mobile/tablet UI
  • Multiple screens: Side-by-side layout + screen labels
  • Placeholder data: Realistic data matching project context
  • Tab/swipe for screen transitions

wireframe

  • Hand-drawn (sketch) style: Slightly irregular lines, hand-drawn feel
  • Black-and-white or grayscale. Minimal color
  • Text areas shown as gray blocks (no "Lorem ipsum")
  • Focus on layout and information structure, exclude visual details

erd

  • Entity boxes with attribute lists. Distinguish PK/FK
  • Relationship lines: 1:1, 1:N, N:M notation. Auto-track on node drag
  • Include relationship type legend

flow

  • Node types: Start/End (circle), Process (rectangle), Decision (diamond)
  • Directional arrows. Auto-track on node drag
  • Display branch conditions on connection lines

chart

  • Auto-select appropriate chart type for the data (bar, line, pie, scatter, etc.)
  • Axis labels + units, hover tooltips, legend
  • Use Chart.js or D3.js

slides

  • Reveal.js CDN-based
  • Slide transition animations
  • Code block highlighting (highlight.js)
  • Speaker notes support (toggle with S key)

arch

  • Separate system components by layer/zone (Frontend / Backend / DB / External)
  • Label communication lines with protocols (HTTP, gRPC, pub/sub, etc.)
  • Zoom/pan support
  • D3.js force-directed or direct SVG generation

dashboard

  • Arrange multiple charts/metrics in grid layout
  • KPI cards at the top (numbers + change rates)
  • Cross-chart interaction: Click one → filter others

timeline

  • Horizontal or vertical timeline
  • Event nodes + date labels
  • Zoom/scroll for period navigation
  • Use Mermaid gantt or D3.js

mindmap

  • Radial expansion from center node
  • Node collapse/expand
  • Use Mermaid mindmap or direct SVG generation

kanban

  • Columns: TODO / In Progress / Done (customizable)
  • Drag and drop cards between columns
  • Display labels/tags on cards

table

  • Sort by clicking column headers (ascending/descending)
  • Search/filter at the top
  • Pagination or virtual scroll
  • Cell highlight, row selection

Procedure

  1. Identify type + target. Ask if ambiguous. Read the file if a path is provided.
  2. Context gathering decision. Determine if project context is needed. If so, read relevant code/docs.
  3. Read references/common-rules.md. Review common principles, aesthetics, CDN, and error prevention rules.
  4. Read references/html-boilerplate.md. Start from the base HTML template.
  5. Generate HTML following the type-specific guide.
  6. Validate: Review the generated HTML.
    • No smart quotes (curly quotes) in HTML attributes
    • No unclosed tags
    • No overlapping nodes/elements
    • If issues found, fix and re-validate
  7. Instruct to open {filename}.

How to use html-visual on Cursor

AI-first code editor with Composer

1

Prerequisites

Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:

  • Cursor installed and configured on your development machine
  • Node.js version 16.0+ with npm package manager (verify with node --version)
  • Active project directory or workspace where you want to add html-visual
2

Execute installation command

Execute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:

$npx skills add https://github.com/2ykwang/agent-skills --skill html-visual

The skills CLI fetches html-visual from GitHub repository 2ykwang/agent-skills and configures it for Cursor.

3

Select Cursor when prompted

The CLI will show a list of available agents. Use arrow keys to navigate and space to select Cursor:

◆ Which agents do you want to install to?
│ ── Universal (.agents/skills) ── always included ────
│ • Amp
│ • Antigravity
│ • Cline
│ • Codex
│ ●Cursor(selected)
│ • Cursor
│ • Windsurf
4

Verify installation

Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:

.cursor/skills/html-visual

Reload or restart Cursor to activate html-visual. Access the skill through slash commands (e.g., /html-visual) or your agent's skill management interface.

Security & Verification Notice

We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.

Skills execute code in your development environment. Always verify the publisher's identity, review recent commits, and test in isolated environments before production deployment.

Implementation Guide

Prerequisites

  • Claude Desktop or compatible AI client with skill support
  • Clear understanding of task or problem to solve
  • Willingness to iterate and refine outputs

Time Estimate

15-45 minutes depending on use case complexity

Installation Steps

  1. 1.Install skill using provided installation command
  2. 2.Test with simple use case relevant to your work
  3. 3.Evaluate output quality and relevance
  4. 4.Iterate on prompts to improve results
  5. 5.Integrate into regular workflow if valuable

Common Pitfalls

  • Expecting perfect results without iteration
  • Not providing enough context in prompts
  • Using skill for tasks outside its intended scope
  • Accepting outputs without review and validation

Best Practices

✓ Do

  • +Start with clear, specific prompts
  • +Provide relevant context and constraints
  • +Review and refine all outputs before using
  • +Iterate to improve output quality
  • +Document successful prompt patterns

✗ Don't

  • Don't use without understanding skill limitations
  • Don't skip validation of outputs
  • Don't share sensitive information in prompts
  • Don't expect skill to replace human judgment

💡 Pro Tips

  • Be specific about desired format and style
  • Ask for multiple options to choose from
  • Request explanations to understand reasoning
  • Combine AI efficiency with human expertise

When to Use This

✓ Use When

Use when skill capabilities match your task, clear ROI on time saved, and you can validate outputs. Best for repetitive tasks, learning, and quality improvement.

✗ Avoid When

Avoid when task requires deep expertise you can't validate, involves sensitive decisions, or when learning process is more valuable than speed of completion.

Learning Path

  1. 1Familiarize yourself with skill capabilities and limitations
  2. 2Start with low-risk, non-critical tasks
  3. 3Progress to more complex and valuable use cases
  4. 4Build expertise through regular use and experimentation
