Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

FramingUI design-system tools for coding agents: validate screens, check wiring, browse the catalog.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Developer tools

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "framingui": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@framingui/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add framingui -- npx -y @framingui/mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "framingui": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@framingui/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "framingui": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@framingui/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Common questions

Is Framingui safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.0) reached the registry 3 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: GitHub, Desktop Commander, Cloudflare MCP

FramingUI

The design system your coding agent can't drift from.

Install · Demos · How it works · Free scope · framingui.com


Ask an agent to "build a settings page" and you get whatever the model dreamt that day: default-blue buttons, three border radii on one screen, a hand-rolled dropdown with no focus states. The code runs. The screen is slop.

FramingUI is an agent skill: a token-driven design system packaged so that coding agents (Claude Code, Codex) compose screens *from* it instead of around it. A closed vocabulary — components, layout tokens, machine-checkable screen recipes, one strongly-opinionated theme — plus zero-install validators that fail loudly when the agent strays. Your agent reads the theme's design DNA, composes from the catalog, validates the result, and self-critiques the rendered screen before calling it done.

No server. No account. No telemetry. A folder of data and plain-node scripts.

What an agent ships with it

One prompt each, zero design feedback rounds — composed entirely from the free catalog in the editorial-tech theme:

"Build a revenue dashboard""Build our blog's article page"
"Build the account settings page"Licensed preview: the conversation pack

*The fourth screen uses the licensed conversation domain pack — thread states, streaming, composer. It's shown here so you know where the free line sits.*

Install (30 seconds)

Claude Code — from your project root:

mkdir -p .claude/skills

curl -L https://framingui.com/get/skill | tar -xz -C .claude/skills

OpenAI Codex — same tarball into .agents/skills instead.

Or clone this repo and copy skill/framingui into your skills directory. Claude Code and Codex auto-discover it; from then on, any "build a screen / add a component / apply the theme" request routes through the system.

To actually render what the agent composes, add the component library to your project:

npm install https://framingui.com/get/ui

Then wire the scope + theme CSS — the skill's own INSTALL.md walks your agent (or you) through it, and node .claude/skills/framingui/scripts/doctor.mjs . verifies the wiring and tells you exactly what's missing.

Prefer MCP? The same validators and catalog are exposed as an MCP server — @framingui/mcp (npx @framingui/mcp, stdio) — for clients that speak MCP but don't load skills.

How it works

  1. `doctor.mjs` checks the environment once per project — packages, the FramingUIScope boundary, theme CSS actually loaded. Broken wiring is a hard fail, not a silent default palette.
  2. The agent reads the theme (assets/themes/editorial-tech.json) — its design DNA, mood keywords, and per-recipe notes are hard constraints, not suggestions.
  3. It composes from the closed vocabulary: 30 components, 12 shells / 8 pages / 17 section patterns, 9 screen recipes with required regions and states. Inventing a token is a validation error.
  4. `validate-screen.mjs` / `layout.mjs` check the result mechanically — exit codes, not vibes. Recipes make "a settings screen must have these regions and states" machine-checkable.
  5. The agent renders, screenshots, and self-critiques against the design DNA before declaring done.

The commands your agent will use (all plain node, zero install):

node .claude/skills/framingui/scripts/doctor.mjs .            # environment check

node .claude/skills/framingui/scripts/validate-screen.mjs s.json # screen definition gate node .claude/skills/framingui/scripts/layout.mjs validate c.json # layout contract gate node .claude/skills/framingui/scripts/recipe.mjs list # screen grammars node .claude/skills/framingui/scripts/pack.mjs list # domain packs

What's free (and what's licensed)

The free tier is deliberately minimal, lovable, and stable: it only ever grows, so a screen you ship today keeps validating forever.

FreeLicensed
Components30 — the full 20-component screen contract + form/feedback/layout essentials62 — adds Sidebar, Command, Combobox, DataTable, DatePicker, Sheet, Popover, the 8-component conversation suite, and more

Domain packs—conversation (assistant surfaces)
UpdatesStable free channelContinuous releases

When your agent reaches for something licensed, it doesn't get a mystery "unknown component" — it gets a LICENSE_REQUIRED error naming the real thing and where it lives, with strict instructions not to hand-roll an imitation. The full catalog is subscription-licensed at framingui.com — join the waitlist and you'll get exactly one email at launch.

FAQ

Why a skill and not just docs? Agents don't read docs; they pattern-match. A skill puts the vocabulary, the constraints, and the validators in the agent's working set — and the validators make violations cost an exit code.

Does this phone home? No. Everything is local. The optional journal (.framingui/journal/) never leaves your machine and records rule IDs and exit codes, never your code.

Can I use it commercially? Yes — this bundle is MIT. The licensed catalog is a separate commercial product.
