How to use the CSS Print Stylesheet Review agent skill

Updated · written with AI from the project's own documentation and checked against our catalogue data

The css-print skill is an agent skill that teaches an AI agent one front-end checklist rule: a website should include a print stylesheet. If you have never used agent skills, this guide explains what the skill does, how to install it from a ZIP file, and how to ask for a review in plain language. By the end you will know what the agent checks and what to expect from its suggestions.

Quick start

  1. 1Download the ZIP. Get the css-print skill ZIP file from our page.
  2. 2Unzip into the skills folder. Unzip it into ~/.claude/skills/ for personal use, or into .claude/skills/ in your project for project use.
  3. 3Or upload it in the Claude apps. Open Settings, go to Capabilities, then Skills, and upload the skill.
  4. 4Ask for a print review. Describe the stylesheet or page and ask the agent to check its print support.
  5. 5Apply the suggestions yourself. Read the agent's proposed selectors and declarations, then make the changes in your own files.

What does the css-print skill make the agent do?

When you ask the agent to review or fix CSS, this skill tells it to look for an @media print stylesheet. The agent then checks that navigation, ads and interactive elements are hidden in print, suggests readable serif type around 12pt, improves page breaks, and shows full URLs for external links on paper.

The skill is guidance for the agent. It is not a tool that changes your files on its own, so you still review and apply any proposed changes.

  • Use @media print for print-specific styles
  • Hide navigation, ads and interactive elements with .no-print
  • Use serif fonts at 12pt and optimize page breaks
  • Show full URLs for external links in printed output
@media print { /* Print-specific styles here */ }

How do you install the css-print skill?

Download the ZIP file for the skill from our page. Then unzip it into one of two locations: ~/.claude/skills/ to make it available to you across projects, or .claude/skills/ inside a specific project to share it with that project only.

If you use the Claude apps instead, open Settings, go to Capabilities, then Skills, and upload the skill there.

  • Personal install: unzip into ~/.claude/skills/
  • Project install: unzip into .claude/skills/ in your project folder
  • Claude apps: Settings → Capabilities → Skills, then upload

How do you trigger the skill with natural requests?

You do not need a special command. Describe a review or fix that involves stylesheets, component styles or responsive behavior, and mention printing. The skill's description covers reviewing stylesheets and checking the rendered layout across breakpoints and interaction states before a fix is proposed.

Be specific about the file or page. The agent can then point to exact selectors, declarations or breakpoints that conflict with the rule.

  • Review this stylesheet for print support.
  • Check whether our invoice page prints cleanly and fix the page breaks.
  • Does this article CSS hide the navigation when printed?
  • Audit the styles in this component against the print checklist item.

What does a good print review look like?

A useful review names the stylesheet that holds print rules, or states that none exists. It lists which elements should be hidden for paper, such as navigation, ads and buttons, and comments on font size, serif type and page breaks.

The rule also covers external links. A good suggestion makes sure the printed page shows the full URL, since a reader on paper cannot click a link.

  • Missing or incomplete @media print styles are flagged first
  • Elements that only make sense on screen are listed for hiding
  • Typography and page-break suggestions are given with the selector they affect

What does the skill need and what are the safety notes?

The skill lists no requirements. It does not run scripts and does not use the network. It is licensed under MIT.

Because it runs no scripts and makes no network calls, the skill only shapes the agent's advice. Any edits to your CSS happen only when you or the agent apply them in your project.

  • Requires: nothing listed
  • Runs scripts: no
  • Uses network: no
  • Licence: MIT

What tips help you get better results?

Use the skill on pages that actually get printed, such as articles, documentation or invoices. The rule's listed difficulty is intermediate and its estimated time is 30 minutes, so plan for some review rather than a quick check.

For complex print layouts such as brochures or PDFs that need dedicated design tools, this rule does not cover the topic in depth. Treat the agent's suggestions as a starting point and test with a real print preview.

  • Start with a page you know is printed, like an article or invoice
  • Ask for the fix in small steps, one stylesheet at a time
  • Check the output in your browser's print preview before you ship

What people use it for

  • Make a documentation site readable when printed, with navigation and sidebars hidden.
  • Check that an invoice page prints with clear page breaks and readable type.
  • Audit an article template against the print checklist item during code review.
  • Confirm that external links in a printed article show their full URLs.
