Ian Xiaohei Illustrations

Ian Xiaohei Illustrations extends your AI assistant with the ability to a Chinese-first Codex skill for generating white-background hand-drawn article illustrations with a distinctive Xiaohei visual style. Useful for blog posts, explainers, social content, and editorial graphics that need a recognizable non-stock look. Rather than leaving your conversation to handle this manually, you can ask your Claude Code agent directly — and it will take care of the task end-to-end, using Ian Xiaohei Illustrations as its underlying capability.

Ian Xiaohei Illustrations works across Claude Code, Codex CLI through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — an open standard that lets AI clients share tools and skills without lock-in. This makes it especially practical for teams and individuals working with illustration and chinese. Because MCP is platform-agnostic by design, you install Ian Xiaohei Illustrations once and it becomes available across all your AI clients. Whether you're working in Claude Code for focused sessions or Codex CLI for integrated workflows, the skill behaves consistently.

Getting started with Ian Xiaohei Illustrations takes about two minutes. Place the skill at `~/.claude/skills/ian-xiaohei-illustrations/` (personal, all projects) or `.claude/skills/ian-xiaohei-illustrations/` (project-specific), then restart your AI client. From that point, typing `/ian-xiaohei-illustrations` in any conversation activates it, or the AI will use it on its own when it detects a relevant request.

Ian Xiaohei Illustrations is a community-contributed Design & Creative skill available through DiscoverAISkills. The source code is open on GitHub — you can inspect it, contribute fixes, or fork it to adapt the skill for your specific setup. Like all skills on DiscoverAISkills, it is free to install and use. The broader AI skills ecosystem continues to expand as developers contribute new capabilities across categories like developer tools, data analysis, writing, automation, and more.
