Designesy publishes portable design judgment: contracts, kits, labs, and field checks people and agents can fetch, run, and remix.
Portable design rules, prompts, and verification people and agents can fetch, run, and remix. This is the canonical Designesy reference: human index and machine feed stay synchronized.
Open design intelligence means rules, prompts, and verification travel with the work, free of private taste and closed tools.
How to use
Packages
Live portable cargo. Machine URLs are CORS-open JSON for agents and tools. Each package carries a spoken abstract: automated voice, synthesized at build time, served as static audio.
