 "title": "Install skins and pick a readable theme in Claude Code",
 "page_title": "How to install skins and pick a readable theme in Claude Code with Claude Skins",
 "summary": "Add the skins plugin, restart, and switch among fifteen built-in themes with /skin.",
 "who": "A developer who uses Claude Code daily and finds its default tool output hard to scan during long coding sessions.",
 "problem": "Tool calls, edits and tables in Claude Code's default drawing are plain and dense, which makes it slow to see what Claude just did.",
 "outcome": "Tool rows show icons and timings, edits appear as diff cards, and the chosen skin is applied in every new session.",
 "steps": [
  "Inside Claude Code, run `/plugin marketplace add hellosverre/claude-skins`.",
  "Run `/plugin install skins@hellosverre-mods`.",
  "Restart Claude Code. The noir skin is on by default.",
  "Type `/skin` to open the settings and preview skins with a live preview, or run `/skin list` to see every skin.",
  "Run `/skin tokyo-night` or another built-in name to switch, and check that tool rows and tables now use the new colours. (inferred, check the README)"
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In Claude Code, install the plugin from the repo hellosverre/claude-skins by running `/plugin marketplace add hellosverre/claude-skins` and then `/plugin install skins@hellosverre-mods`, restart, and run `/skin list`. Report the list of skins shown and the one currently active. Verify that tool rows now show icons and timings.",
