Test it
Using "pencil-to-code". A user provides a Pencil artboard for a product hero page and asks for implementation.
Expected outcome:
The assistant extracts dimensions, typography, assets, and responsive rules, then delivers frontend components with matching visual structure.
Using "pencil-to-code". A user says the desktop version is too wide compared with the Pencil design.
Expected outcome:
The assistant checks artboard widths, fixed foreground rules, and rendered screenshots, then recommends targeted layout and CSS token changes.
Using "pencil-to-code". A user needs repeated Pencil cards converted into a maintainable component.
Expected outcome:
The assistant identifies shared card properties, creates reusable structure, and preserves per-card text, icon, spacing, and image details.
Security Audit
SafeAll seven static findings are false positives caused by Markdown text, browser API names, CSS terms, and one optional product link. I found no prompt injection, command execution intent, data exfiltration, or unsafe network behavior in the reviewed files.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: MediumWhat You Can Build
Implement a Marketing Page
Convert a Pencil landing page into responsive HTML, CSS, or framework components while keeping the artboard layout intact.
Match a Design Handoff
Use node IDs, variables, and screenshots to resolve spacing, typography, and image crop differences during review.
Migrate Legacy Screens
Rebuild existing Pencil-designed screens in a modern frontend stack with reusable components and documented visual deviations.
Try These Prompts
Use pencil-to-code to convert this Pencil artboard into responsive frontend code. Preserve layout, typography, images, and spacing.
Use pencil-to-code with these Pencil node IDs. Inspect the artboard, variables, repeated components, and assets before coding.
Use pencil-to-code to compare the current implementation with the Pencil screenshot and identify CSS changes for closer visual matching.
Use pencil-to-code to extract shared tokens and repeated units from these Pencil artboards, then implement reusable responsive components.
Best Practices
- Provide Pencil node IDs, target artboard sizes, and exported assets before asking for code.
- Run visual checks at every design breakpoint, not only common browser widths.
- Keep reusable design tokens in the project theme or CSS variables.
Avoid
- Do not approximate logos, photos, or illustrations when exported assets are available.
- Do not stretch fixed foreground layouts just because the viewport is wider.
- Do not rely only on screenshots when Pencil variables and node details are available.
