How to Move & Set Up a Design System in Claude Design | Critical Update ‼️

How to set up a design system in Claude Design, now that it has moved into Claude. The standalone site is scheduled to close on December 14, 2026, so here's what to do before then to keep your designs and artifacts on-brand.
🔗 Documentation: https://support.claude.com/en/articles/17440474-move-from-standalone-claude-design-to-claude

I'll show you how to move an existing design system, decide whether to keep or rebuild it, build a brand design system from a chat, and sync a coded product design system with Claude Code's /design-sync.

You'll also see how brand systems differ from coded product systems, and what to check before publishing a system or setting an organization default.

Anthropic says the standalone site will become read-only after December 14, so review and move any design systems you still need before the cutoff. Anthropic's migration guide: [URL]

If your team has already moved a design system, check its accuracy and ownership before making it the default. A migration can carry forward gaps from the source system, so review the resulting colors, grids, breakpoints, tokens, and components. For a coded product system, use the repository or codebase workflow shown in the video and test the imported components before publishing.
