What it does

Set up a design that rebuilds itself on a schedule (a weekly report deck, next week's social posts, a refreshed one-pager), or run one such job, one job file, one supervised run, then a one-line prompt for the scheduler, use whenever the user wants a design made again every day, every week or every month, on a schedule, or as a recurring job, or when a prompt says "Run the Open Design job <path>", even if they don't mention Open Design

<!-- generated:curated-entry -->

Recurring Open Design jobs: one job file describes what to make each period, and a scheduler runs it.

Request: "$ARGUMENTS", or, if that is empty, the user's request in this conversation (if it isn't clear, ask the user: "What should be rebuilt, from which sources, and how often?")

How to talk to the user. Many people using Open Design don't write code, so:

  • Use the user's own words. If they say "artifact", "design tokens" or give a file path, use those terms back; otherwise use the plain words below.
  • Keep the machinery out of replies: no tool names, no ids like od:prototype:poster-hero, no internal files (.artifact.json, .comments.json, config.json), and not the words "register", "manifest", "sidecar", "entry" or "surface", unless the user used them first.
  • Explain a print term the first time it comes up, in one short clause, and not again.
  • Say where a file is the way the user would find it ("in your Open Design folder, under seed-swap-flyer"). Give a raw path only where the user can click it (Claude Code, Claude Desktop's Code tab, VS Code) or asks for it.
  • End each reply that finishes a step with one line on what they can do next, with at most two options ("Want it in Instagram sizes too, or is it ready to print?").
