Original: How to Wire DESIGN.md into Claude Code, Cursor, Kiro and Windsurf

Short summary

Wire DESIGN.md design system files into Claude Code, Cursor, Kiro, and Windsurf by adding them to each tool's persistent-context mechanism — one source file ensures design consistency across all AI agent platforms. Validate output by checking button colors, spacing, and corners match your specifications. Same file works across all tools simultaneously with no per-tool drift.

  • Add DESIGN.md to persistent-context mechanism in each AI agent tool to inject design context into agent outputs
  • Tell agents to read DESIGN.md before UI generation to maintain visual consistency across platforms
  • Single design file serves all tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Kiro, Windsurf) with no per-tool configuration drift

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.

Is this a good recommendation for you?
