kika-design-system

kika-design-system is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from aka-kika/akakika-skills. It costs 113 tokens per session (1,771 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of visual rules and reusable design guidance for building calm, modern SwiftUI interfaces on Apple platforms, with dark and light modes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when building or reviewing KIKA views, settings windows, menu-bar interfaces, popovers, and components in a similar app.
Why use it?
It helps keep screens, controls, spacing, colors, and menus consistent instead of designing each part from scratch.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

kika-design-system scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

KIKA Design System v2 (June 2026)

Calm, minimal, premium, modern dark UI with excellent light mode support. Inspired by Cursor, Linear, and high-quality dev tools.

When to Use

Use this skill for any work touching KIKA's UI:

  • Building or refactoring a SwiftUI view
  • Designing a settings window, menu bar, or popover
  • Adding a new component (button, row, card, divider)
  • Designing a right-click context menu or the macOS main menu bar (File / Edit / View)
  • Reviewing UI for consistency with the design system
  • Generating new screens that should match the existing app

Do not use it for non-UI logic, backend, or app architecture decisions.

Built for the KIKA app, but the tokens and approach are reusable: adopt or adapt the same palette, type scale, spacing, and components for your own calm, premium Apple-platform app.

Philosophy

  • Calm over loud. Accent color is restrained. Borders are thin or absent.
  • Elevation over borders. Subtle background changes carry hierarchy.
  • Generous spacing. Three gap values (12pt, 16pt, 20pt) carry the whole layout. (8pt exists for internal component padding only — never as a gap.)
  • One font family. SF Pro. No custom imports.
  • Dark first, light equally. Every token has a dark and light value.
  • Icons over text. Always reach for SF Symbols first. Labels stay on actions; chrome stays symbol-only.
  • No subtitles. If a label and a description feel needed, the description is the label — rewritten, not stacked.
  • No visual clutter. No drop shadows, no decorative gradients, no colored icon fills, no multi-color palettes. Restraint is a feature.

Workflow

  1. Read the relevant reference. Pick the slice of the design system that applies:
  2. Resolve tokens once. Use KikaTheme.resolve(scheme:) (see the asset) — never hard-code hex per call site.
  3. Compose from building blocks. KikaSectionHeader, KikaDivider, KikaRow, KikaPrimaryButtonStyle, KikaSecondaryButtonStyle are provided in SettingsView.swift.
  4. Honor system color scheme. Don't force light or dark. Let macOS / iOS decide and resolve tokens accordingly.
  5. Self-review against anti-patterns. Each reference ends with a "Anti-Patterns" list. Run through it before declaring the view done.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
