Convert frontend code (Vite, React, etc.) to a Stitch Design by chaining static HTML extraction, design system extraction, and file upload. **ALWAYS** use this skill when the user's intent is to move existing web apps or React components into Stitch (e.g., requests to "save", "migrate", or "upload"). You must use this skill even for simple "save" operations, as it is the only way to ensure the design system is extracted and assets are properly linked.

Transform your existing frontend code into a Stitch Design so you can iterate and improve it using Stitch.
This skill orchestrates three other skills in sequence:
extract-static-html: Extract a single self-contained HTML file from your build output.extract-design-md: Analyze the source code to create a design system (DESIGN.md).upload-to-stitch: Upload that HTML file and the design system to your Stitch project.Follow these steps to convert your existing code.
index.html and assets.projectId (use list_projects if unknown).Delegate to the extract-static-html skill to generate a standalone HTML file.
Read skills/extract-static-html/SKILL.md for detailed instructions and script usage.
Expected output: A single file like /path/to/extracted/standalone.html.
After extraction, inform the user of the output file path so they can manually verify in a browser if desired. Do not block on verification — proceed directly to Step 3.
If the user reports issues after reviewing, fix them before continuing.
Delegate to the extract-design-md skill to analyze the project's source files
(components, stylesheets, theme configs) and produce a design system. Read
skills/extract-design-md/SKILL.md for the
full analysis workflow.
Write .stitch/DESIGN.md following the extract-design-md skill's output
structure.
Delegate to the manage-design-system skill to upload the DESIGN.md and
create the design system in Stitch. Read
skills/manage-design-system/SKILL.md for
the full workflow (upload script usage, create_design_system_from_design_md
call, and required schemas). Pass
--generated-by 'stitch::code-to-design' when uploading.
Use the same upload-to-stitch skill's script to upload the extracted HTML file.
Read skills/upload-to-stitch/SKILL.md for detailed instructions and script usage.
You will need:
projectId.--generated-by argument set to 'stitch::extract-static-html'.development
Convert Stitch designs into production React + Vite dashboards with TanStack Query, accessible tokens from DESIGN.md, and Web3-ready patterns (ethers/viem).
development
Convert Stitch HTML designs to React Native components, or syncs/updates existing native components to align with the latest Stitch designs, using StyleSheet.
development
Converts Stitch designs into modular Vite and React components, or syncs/updates existing React components to align with the latest Stitch designs, using system-level networking and AST-based validation.
tools
Upload local assets (images, mockups, extracted HTML, design markdown) to a Stitch project. ALWAYS use this skill when you need to upload visual assets, HTML pages, or design docs to Stitch, particularly when direct MCP tool calls fail or truncate due to base64 token limits.
