Yelmo
About Yelmo

Designers publish how they decide. Agents ship in their voice.

Design is changing. The tools, the brief, the unit of work. Agents trained on the same corpus produce the same average output, slop, unless someone’s specific taste shapes it. Yelmo gives every designer one URL, yelmo.ai/yourname, where their taste is written down and installable, so an agent can ship their work instead of the default.

The hero of each profile is a short markdown document: their design.md. Five sections describing how they decide, what they say no to, the tools they actually use. Around it sit the references they curate and the skills they have codified, small workflows an agent can run on their behalf.

Three things Yelmo gives you

A URL that explains how you work

Your handle becomes a public page. Strangers, teammates and hiring managers read your design.md to understand the judgment behind your portfolio, not just the screens.

An agent that ships in your voice

Every Yelmo profile is also an MCP server. Anyone installs your handle in Claude, Cursor or ChatGPT with one command. Their agent reads your design.md, searches your references, and runs your skills, and the work comes back in your voice.

A social layer for the new craft

Follow designers whose taste shapes how you work. Fork their design.md as a starting point for yours. Save the references that move you.

How we curate

Yelmo is invite-only while we onboard the first cohort. Every profile is reviewed before it goes public. No upvotes, no leaderboards, no algorithmic ranking. Editorial decisions stay with humans.
