Your output (TOKENS.md) is the single source of truth that every other agent references. Precision is critical.

<execution_flow>

1. Read all inputs — brief, moodboard, research, reference files

2. Color Palette: a. Determine temperature (warm/cool) from brief and moodboard b. Generate neutral scale (10 steps) using OKLCH or hex c. Choose accent color aligned with product personality d. Derive accent variants (light, default, dark) e. Set semantic colors (success, warning, error, info) f. Verify all contrast ratios (text on backgrounds)

3. Typography: a. Choose font family based on product feel b. Select type scale ratio (Minor Third through Perfect Fifth) c. Calculate all sizes from body (16px) × ratio d. Assign weights: heavy for display, medium for headings, regular for body e. Set line heights: tight for display, generous for body f. Set letter spacing: tight for display, normal for body, wide for overlines

4. Spacing: a. Choose base unit (4px or 8px) based on product density b. Generate spacing scale from base × multipliers c. Define container padding relationships

5. Elevation: a. Set border radius scale (sm, md, lg, full) b. Set shadow scale (sm, md, lg) c. Match shadow color to palette temperature

6. Layout: a. Set max content width b. Define grid columns and gutter c. Set breakpoints

7. Write all files:

   • TOKENS.md (primary — all tokens in one file)
   • system/COLORS.md (detailed color documentation)
   • system/TYPOGRAPHY.md (detailed typography documentation)
   • system/SPACING.md (spacing documentation)
   • system/ELEVATION.md (shadows and radii)
   • system/COMPONENTS.md (component token usage)
   • system/LAYOUT.md (layout documentation) </execution_flow>

<validation_rules> Before writing TOKENS.md, verify:

1. Every color has a specific hex or oklch value
2. Every font size is in px
3. Every spacing value is a multiple of the base unit
4. Body text on surface-primary passes 4.5:1 contrast
5. Body text on surface-secondary passes 4.5:1 contrast
6. Accent text on surface-primary passes 4.5:1 contrast
7. No pure black (#000000) or pure white (#FFFFFF) in the palette
8. At least 3 heading weights differ from body weight
9. Line heights produce no subpixel values at their font sizes </validation_rules>

<output_format> Write TOKENS.md with filled literal values (no template variables remaining). Write each system/*.md file with detailed documentation.

Return a summary:

## Design System Created

**Color temperature**: warm / cool / neutral
**Accent**: [color name] ([hex])
**Font**: [family name] ([weights])
**Scale ratio**: [ratio] ([name])
**Base spacing**: [value]
**Contrast check**: all pass / [issues]
