How to use the Nested Container Clean Agency agent skill

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

The Nested Container Clean Agency skill is a set of design instructions for an AI agent. Once it is installed, the agent lays out web pages as nested shells: a light outer frame with thin rails, dark rounded feature blocks inside it, and smaller premium cards inside those. This guide explains what the skill changes, how to install it, how to ask for it, and where it fits and does not fit.

Quick start

  1. 1Download the ZIP. Get the nested-container-clean-agency ZIP from this page.
  2. 2Unzip the skill folder. Extract it so the folder containing SKILL.md sits in ~/.claude/skills/ or a project's .claude/skills/ directory.
  3. 3Or upload in the Claude apps. In the Claude apps, open Settings, go to Capabilities, and upload the skill under Skills.
  4. 4Make a natural request. Ask for a landing page or pricing section and name the feel you want, optionally including $nested-container-clean-agency.
  5. 5Review and tune. Adjust nesting depth, contrast, corner radius, accent strength and card padding through follow-up requests.

What the skill makes the agent do

The skill targets marketing-style pages such as landing pages, pricing sections, service groupings and call-to-action areas. Its instructions ask the agent to organize the whole composition through stacked containers instead of a flat grid of cards.

In practice the agent is told to start with a centered outer page container with visible vertical rails or light frame lines and tiny corner markers. Inside it, it places a contrasting dark rounded feature zone, and inside that, smaller rounded cards with gradient-border wrappers.

  • Outer shell: a max-width wrapper with consistent side padding and tiny corner squares
  • Inner block: a large dark rounded section for a featured pricing or capability area
  • Inset cards: premium cards with soft surface contrast and clear content grouping
  • Accent: a soft accent color used sparingly on pills, buttons and active dots

Install the skill from the ZIP

Download the ZIP for nested-container-clean-agency from this page. Unzip it and place the folder where your agent looks for skills. For a personal setup, use ~/.claude/skills/. For a single project, use the .claude/skills/ folder inside that project.

If you use the Claude apps instead, open Settings, go to Capabilities, and upload the skill under Skills. The skill folder should contain SKILL.md, which is the instruction file the agent reads.

  • Personal install: ~/.claude/skills/nested-container-clean-agency/
  • Project install: .claude/skills/nested-container-clean-agency/ inside your project
  • Claude apps: Settings → Capabilities → Skills, then upload

Trigger the skill with a natural request

You do not need a special command. Ask for a page in the kind of language the skill describes, and mention the sections you need. The skill's own demo prompts start with the skill name written as $nested-container-clean-agency, so including that name in your request is a clear way to make sure it is used.

Good requests name the page type and the feel you want: a landing page, a pricing section, an editorial layout, a premium agency look.

  • Use $nested-container-clean-agency to design a landing page for a design studio.
  • Create a pricing section with a dark featured plan inside a light page frame, using the nested container style.
  • Build a responsive standalone HTML services page with a clean agency look.

Get the most out of it

The skill includes a demo folder with an index.html reference, a PROMPT.md file of example prompts, and a source.json file. You can point the agent at demo/index.html as the visual and interaction reference, which the demo prompts recommend treating as a reference rather than a loose mood board.

Tune the result through the knobs the skill describes: how many nested layers to use, the contrast between shell and inset blocks, corner radius, accent strength and card padding. Ask for a less busy version if the nesting feels heavy.

  • Name the number of layers you want, for example two levels of shells rather than three
  • Ask for a softer or stronger contrast between the outer shell and the dark block
  • Ask the agent to keep the accent color limited to buttons and tags

Safety notes: scripts and network

According to the listing, this skill runs no scripts and uses no network access. It requires nothing beyond the agent itself. It is made of written design instructions, so it does not build or deploy anything on its own; the agent still writes the page code.

Because it only shapes layout decisions, review the generated HTML and CSS like any other agent output before you publish it.

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

When not to use it

The style adds visual framing that wastes space on data-heavy screens, so it is a poor fit for dense dashboards or admin tools. It also overrides rather than follows an existing strict brand or design system, so it suits new marketing pages better than established product UI.

  • Good fit: landing pages, pricing pages, prototypes for marketing sites
  • Poor fit: dashboards, admin tools, projects with a strict existing design system

What people use it for

  • A design studio landing page with a light editorial frame and a dark featured capability block
  • A pricing page where one plan sits in a dark rounded container and the others in inset premium cards
  • A services page grouping offers into modular editorial blocks inside a larger shell
  • A prototype marketing site for a team that wants a defined layout direction

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the nested container clean agency skill?

Download the ZIP from this page and unzip it into ~/.claude/skills/ for personal use, or into a project's .claude/skills/ folder. In the Claude apps you can instead upload it under Settings, then Capabilities, then Skills.

Does the nested container clean agency skill cost money or what is its licence?

The listing states the licence is MIT. This page does not list a price, so check the directory for any cost details before you install.

What do I need to run this skill?

The listing says it requires nothing beyond the agent itself. It runs no scripts and uses no network access.

Will the skill build the website for me?

Not by itself. It is a set of design instructions, so the agent writes the layout code following the nesting, spacing and accent rules.

Why does my agent still produce a flat grid of cards?

Check the skill folder contains SKILL.md and that it is in the right location. Then ask explicitly for nested shells, a dark rounded feature block and inset cards, and name the skill in your request.

How does it compare with other design skills or a standard CSS framework?

This skill focuses on one visual direction: nested containers with an agency feel. A framework or another skill may suit different styles, so pick based on the look you want rather than on general capability.

Our verdict

Use this skill if you want an AI agent to produce polished, editorial-style marketing pages with clear container hierarchy and no installation requirements or scripts. Pick something else for dense dashboards, admin tools, or projects that already have a strict design system this style would override.
