What problem does it solve?
This skill addresses the fragmentation between design intent and implementation by providing a standardized, machine-readable format for design systems that ensures consistency across AI-generated code and UI components.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Design System Validation: Automatically lint DESIGN.md files to catch broken token references, accessibility (WCAG) contrast issues, and structural errors.
- Token Regression Testing: Compare two versions of a design system to identify token-level changes and potential regressions before they impact the UI.
- Multi-Format Export: Convert design tokens into Tailwind v3/v4 configurations or W3C-compliant DTCG JSON tokens for seamless integration into development workflows.
Quick Start
Use the design-cli skill to lint the current DESIGN.md file and report any structural or accessibility findings.
