What problem does it solve?
This Skill removes the manual effort of inspecting Pencil design files by turning complex .pen documents into readable structure, component, and style information for faster review and analysis.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Structure Review: Understand the full hierarchy of frames, text, shapes, and reusable nodes in a design file.
- Component and Variable Extraction: List reusable components, document variables, imports, and themes for downstream use.
- Reference and Theme Resolution: Expand component instances and substitute variable values to see what a design actually renders.
- Practical Scenarios: Use it to prepare design context for AI tasks, compare before-and-after design changes, or inspect specific node types and path patterns.
Quick Start
Use pencil-analyzer to inspect the attached .pen file, review its structure, and extract any components, variables, or resolved references you need.
