A historic display voice for short inscriptions about culture and memory.
Ancient Kyiv is a historic display typeface by Henadij Zarechnjuk based on old Kyiv-style vyaz. Its character set is intentionally narrow: uppercase Ukrainian letters and an apostrophe, with lowercase characters repeating the uppercase forms. It is therefore not a reading face, but an expressive tool for short titles, cultural projects, exhibitions, and work concerned with historical memory.

Hand this prompt to your AI agent. It connects the Shryftoriz server itself, reads A cie t Kyi out of the catalogue, and builds with it.
Build me a typographic system around "A cie t Kyi" using the Shryftoriz MCP server. Look the font up there first (lookup_font), check which cuts it actually has, then set a scale: display, headings, subheads, body, small print — with sizes, line heights and tracking for each. Say which cut does which job and why. If "A cie t Kyi" is wrong for one of those roles, propose a Ukrainian alternative from the catalogue (find_alternatives) instead of stretching it. Finish with CSS I can paste into a project. If the Shryftoriz MCP server is not connected yet, add it first: HTTP transport, name "shryftoriz", URL https://shryftoriz.online/api/mcp — in Claude Code that is `claude mcp add --transport http shryftoriz https://shryftoriz.online/api/mcp`.
Or press the one you use — the prompt lands straight in its chat window.
