What this is
Every part of the Patterson design system — the brand core, each template, each UI kit — is its own plugin. Install only what you need; each ships a skill (auto-invoked knowledge), slash commands (scaffold workflows), a subagent (a specialist Claude delegates to), and a self-contained ds/ snapshot of every file it needs.
Quick start
From a git host (push this repo first, keep it private — see Brand & licensing):
# inside Claude Code
/plugin marketplace add patterson-agents/design-system
/plugin install patterson-brand@patterson-design # the foundation
/plugin install patterson-deck@patterson-design # …plus whatever you need
From a local checkout:
cd patterson-design-marketplace
claude
/plugin marketplace add .
/plugin install patterson-deck@patterson-design
Then use it three ways:
/patterson-deck:new-deck Q3 dental equipment business review ← slash command
/patterson-deck:deck-template ← invoke the skill directly
"make me a Patterson deck about our vet supply chain" ← skill + agent fire automatically
