$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)

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
- Identify type + target. Ask if ambiguous. Read the file if a path is provided.
- Context gathering decision. Determine if project context is needed. If so, read relevant code/docs.
- Read
references/common-rules.md. Review common principles, aesthetics, CDN, and error prevention rules. - Read
references/html-boilerplate.md. Start from the base HTML template. - Generate HTML following the type-specific guide.
- 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
- Instruct to
open {filename}.
How to use html-visual on Cursor
AI-first code editor with Composer
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
Execute installation command
Execute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:
The skills CLI fetches html-visual from GitHub repository 2ykwang/agent-skills and configures it for Cursor.
Select Cursor when prompted
The CLI will show a list of available agents. Use arrow keys to navigate and space to select Cursor:
Verify installation
Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:
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.Install skill using provided installation command
- 2.Test with simple use case relevant to your work
- 3.Evaluate output quality and relevance
- 4.Iterate on prompts to improve results
- 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▌
- 1Familiarize yourself with skill capabilities and limitations
- 2Start with low-risk, non-critical tasks
- 3Progress to more complex and valuable use cases
- 4Build expertise through regular use and experimentation
