HTML Anything

_{From the team behind Open Design — 40k★ · 200+ contributors, production-grade and iterating faster. html-anything is the focused agent-era HTML editor; if it clicks for you, Open Design is where the same team ships at scale.}

Live page: open-design.ai/html-anything/ — overview, surface modes, and showcase before you clone.

Markdown is the draft. HTML is what humans read. Your local agent writes it. The agentic HTML editor — in the agentic era, you don't hand-edit docs anymore, so the output format should be what the reader actually wants: HTML. Local-first, zero API key, reuses the CLI session you already have logged in — 9 coding-agent CLIs auto-detected on your PATH (Claude Code · Cursor Agent · Codex · Gemini CLI · GitHub Copilot CLI · OpenCode · Qwen Coder · Aider · IBM Bob), driven by 75 composable skill templates across 9 deliverable surfaces (magazine articles · keynote decks · résumés · posters · Xiaohongshu cards · tweet cards · web prototypes · data reports · Hyperframes videos). One-click export to WeChat / X / Zhihu, or download .html / .png.

Showcase

The eight skills that surface at the top of the picker's Featured / 推荐 group — sorted by their recommended: rank in SKILL.md frontmatter (lower = higher). Each ships a real example.html you can open straight from the repo, no auth, no setup.

deck-guizang-editorial · deck · recommended: 1 Magazine × e-ink editorial deck, inspired by op7418/guizang-ppt-skill — 10 locked layouts × 5 palettes (Ink / Indigo Porcelain / Forest Ink / Kraft / Dune). Reads like a printed art-zine, not a slide deck.	deck-swiss-international · deck · recommended: 2 Swiss International deck — 16-column grid + one saturated accent (Klein Blue / Lemon / Mint / Safety Orange) across 22 locked layouts. Cold, rational, institutional. The deck that reads "a designer made this" the moment it opens.
doc-kami-parchment · doc · recommended: 3 Warm-parchment editorial document, inspired by tw93/kami. #f5f4ed ground + ink-blue accent + single serif voice — a noticeably calmer reading surface than plain-white markdown for long essays, reports, and one-pagers.	magazine-poster · poster · recommended: 4 Newsprint Sunday-paper poster — oversized serif headline, two-column body, six numbered sections, dot-pattern cream ground. Reads like a printed broadsheet, not a webpage.
video-hyperframes · frame / video · recommended: 5 Hyperframes / Remotion-compatible storyboard — 6–10 sequential 1920×1080 frames with hidden duration + transition markers and an auto-play script. Hand straight to heygen-com/hyperframes or Remotion to render .mp4.	frame-glitch-title · frame · recommended: 6 Glitch title frame — cyan/magenta chromatic offset, CRT scanlines, corrupted-data subtitle, ASCII noise in the corners. Cyberpunk hero card or video transition.
vfx-text-cursor · vfx · recommended: 7 VFX text-cursor opener — a cursor "types" across the canvas, each character revealed with a hot-pink × cyan chromatic trail and directional light leaks. Drop in a quote, get a film-grade opening frame.	frame-logo-outro · frame · recommended: 8 Logo outro frame — logo assembles piece-by-piece with glow bloom, tagline rises, CTA appears. The closing card for a product reveal or brand film.

The full skill catalog (organized by mode) is in Skills below.

Why this exists

Anthropic's Claude Code team announced they stopped writing internal docs in Markdown — they ship HTML now. The argument is simple:

Markdown	HTML
Good for the writer	Good for the reader
Layout limited to the renderer	Layout is yours
Looks ugly screenshotted into a tweet	Already looks like a designed image
Has to be re-flowed for WeChat / Zhihu / newsletter	One-click format conversion

HTML is the final form for humans. Markdown is just an intermediate state during writing.

But "writing HTML" used to mean writing CSS, picking type scales, snapping to a grid, doing responsive — most users won't, designers won't bother, writers don't have the patience. So what we built: after you press ⌘+Enter, your local AI agent turns any input (Markdown / CSV / Excel / JSON / SQL / raw notes) into a ship-ready single-file HTML in seconds, then one-click sends it to WeChat / X / Zhihu / anywhere. "Ship-ready" is the bar — when generation finishes, the artifact is what your audience actually sees. No "I'll touch it up later" pass.

We stand on four open-source shoulders:

• nexu-io/open-design — the agent-detection layer, the design-system model, and the SKILL.md protocol. next/src/lib/agents/ and next/src/lib/templates/skills/* mirror this architecture directly.
• mdnice/markdown-nice — proof that juice-inlined CSS pastes cleanly into WeChat and Zhihu without per-platform manual fix-up.
• gcui-art/markdown-to-image — the iframe → high-DPI PNG export path.
• alchaincyf/huashu-md-html — the anti-AI-slop discipline that maps into the hard constraints inside every SKILL.md (CJK-first font stack, 8 px baseline grid, contrast ≥ 4.5, must-use-real-data rule).

At a glance

	What you get
Coding-agent CLIs (8)	Claude Code · Cursor Agent · OpenAI Codex · Gemini CLI · GitHub Copilot CLI · OpenCode · Qwen Coder · Aider — scanned on startup across PATH (including ~/.local/bin, ~/.bun/bin, /opt/homebrew/bin, ~/.npm-global/bin — directories a GUI-launched Node process normally misses), swap from the top-bar picker.
Zero API key	We reuse the session you already have logged in via claude login · cursor login · gemini auth. Your existing subscription does the work; marginal cost is $0.
75 skill templates	prototype (web / SaaS landing / dashboard / data report) · deck (20 keynote skills incl. Swiss International, Guizang Editorial, XHS Pastel, Hermes Cyber, Replit, Magazine Web…) · frame (10 Hyperframes video frames — liquid hero, NYT data chart, sticky-note flowchart, glitch title, cinema light-leak, macOS notification, logo outro…) · social (X / Xiaohongshu / Spotify / Reddit cards) · office (PM spec · eng runbook · finance report · HR onboarding · invoice · OKRs · weekly update · meeting notes · kanban) · doc (Kami warm-parchment editorial) · mockup (3D device frame) · vfx (text-cursor effect).
9 surface modes	📖 magazine article · 🎬 keynote deck · 📄 résumé · 🖼️ poster · 📱 Xiaohongshu card · 🐦 tweet card · 🛠️ web prototype · 📊 data report · 🎞️ Hyperframes video. Each has multiple skills you can pick from.
One-click export	juice inlines CSS → WeChat paste with zero re-formatting · modern-screenshot renders the iframe to a 2× PNG → ClipboardItem → drop straight into the tweet composer · <mjx-container> → data-eeimg placeholder → Zhihu equations render automatically · standalone .html download · high-DPI .png download.
Streaming render	POST /api/convert over SSE. The agent's stdout JSON-line stream is parsed for text deltas → server-sent events → client appends → iframe srcdoc updates live. Waiting for an AI generation looks like watching it type in real time.
Sandboxed preview	<iframe sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin">. User-emitted HTML runs in an isolated origin — Tailwind CDN / Google Fonts / inline scripts work, but cookies and localStorage are quarantined from the host.
Format auto-detect	The editor accepts Markdown / CSV / TSV / JSON / SQL / plain text. papaparse + xlsx parse tabular data in the browser — nothing is uploaded.
Deployable to	Local (pnpm -F @html-anything/next dev) · Vercel for the web layer (the agent always stays on your laptop).
License	Apache-2.0

Demo

Entry view — the top bar shows your installed CLIs, the left pane is the editor, the middle is the template + design-system picker, the right is a live iframe preview. The same surface produces magazines, decks, posters, web prototypes, and Hyperframes frame scripts.	75 templates, searchable and filterable — pick by mode (prototype / deck / frame / social / office / doc) × scenario (design / marketing / engineering / product / personal). Every skill ships an example.html you can open straight from the repo to see what the agent will produce.
SSE streaming — agent stdout JSON-line is parsed for text deltas, appended into the iframe srcdoc in real time. You watch the page render line by line. Don't like where it's going? Interrupt and re-prompt — no wasted full generation.	One-click export — WeChat (juice-inlined CSS) · X / Weibo / Xiaohongshu (modern-screenshot → 2× PNG → ClipboardItem) · Zhihu (LaTeX image placeholders) · download .html · download .png. Paste straight in, no second pass of manual formatting.
Deck mode — 20 keynote skills, including Swiss International (Helvetica grid maximalism), Guizang Editorial (magazine ink), Open Slide Canvas (1920×1080 agent-native), Magazine Web, XHS Pastel, Hermes Cyber, Replit Style. ←/→ to navigate slides, presenter notes, PDF export.	Hyperframes frames — 10 motion frame scripts (liquid hero, NYT data chart, sticky-note flowchart, glitch title, cinema light-leak, macOS notification, brand logo outro, text-cursor VFX, 3D device mockup, …) conforming to heygen-com/hyperframes; hand off straight to Remotion to render .mp4.

Quickstart

git clone https://github.com/nexu-io/html-anything
cd html-anything
pnpm install
pnpm -F @html-anything/next dev
# → http://localhost:3000

Open the browser → the top bar auto-detects whichever coding-agent CLI you already have signed in → pick a template → paste content → ⌘+Enter.

No API key required. We reuse the session you already have logged in (Claude / Cursor / Codex / Gemini / Copilot subscriptions all work).

Workspace

This repo is a small pnpm workspace:

• next/ is the complete Next app (@html-anything/next).
• e2e/ is the browser-test package (@html-anything/e2e) and the only source of truth for Playwright cases.
• root owns CI, docs, and scripts/guard.ts; root package.json intentionally does not proxy app or e2e commands.

Run package commands from the repo root:

pnpm exec tsx scripts/guard.ts
pnpm -F @html-anything/next dev
pnpm -F @html-anything/next typecheck
pnpm -F @html-anything/next test
pnpm -F @html-anything/next build
pnpm -F @html-anything/e2e typecheck
pnpm -F @html-anything/e2e test

Supported coding agents

On startup we scan PATH (including ~/.local/bin, ~/.bun/bin, /opt/homebrew/bin, ~/.npm-global/bin — directories normally missed by GUI-launched Node) and surface every CLI we recognize:

Agent	Detection binary	Invocation
Claude Code	claude	claude -p --output-format stream-json
OpenAI Codex	codex	codex exec --json --sandbox workspace-write
Cursor Agent	cursor-agent	cursor-agent --print --output-format stream-json --force --trust
Gemini CLI	gemini	gemini --output-format stream-json --yolo
GitHub Copilot CLI	copilot	copilot --allow-all-tools --output-format json
OpenCode	opencode-cli / opencode	opencode run --format json --dangerously-skip-permissions -
Qwen Coder	qwen	qwen --yolo -
Aider	aider	aider --no-pretty --no-stream --yes-always --message-file -
IBM Bob	bob	bob --output-format stream-json --hide-intermediary-output

The detection strategy and per-CLI adapter shape are borrowed directly from nexu-io/open-design and multica-ai/multica: one privileged process spawns CLIs, JSON-line is the wire protocol, every CLI gets a thin adapter in next/src/lib/agents/argv.ts.

If you've already done claude login / cursor login / gemini auth in your terminal, HTML Anything reuses that session. No second copy of the API key required.
