stitch-design-taste

A design-system guide generator for Google Stitch, a tool that creates interface screens from descriptions.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps define a consistent visual style for new Stitch screens and record rules intended to prevent generic-looking interfaces.
Why use it?
It turns visual rules such as colors, fonts, layout, component behavior, and motion into a DESIGN.md reference that Stitch can follow.

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

stitch-design-taste 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 2d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

97% identical to stitch-design-taste — 2 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Stitch Design Taste — Semantic Design System Skill

Overview

This skill generates DESIGN.md files optimized for Google Stitch screen generation. It translates the battle-tested anti-slop frontend engineering directives into Stitch's native semantic design language — descriptive, natural-language rules paired with precise values that Stitch's AI agent can interpret to produce premium, non-generic interfaces.

The generated DESIGN.md serves as the single source of truth for prompting Stitch to generate new screens that align with a curated, high-agency design language. Stitch interprets design through "Visual Descriptions" supported by specific color values, typography specs, and component behaviors.

Prerequisites

  • Access to Google Stitch via labs.google.com/stitch
  • Optionally: Stitch MCP Server for programmatic integration with Cursor, Antigravity, or Gemini CLI

The Goal

Generate a DESIGN.md file that encodes:

  1. Visual atmosphere — the mood, density, and design philosophy
  2. Color calibration — neutrals, accents, and banned patterns with hex codes
  3. Typographic architecture — font stacks, scale hierarchy, and anti-patterns
  4. Component behaviors — buttons, cards, inputs with interaction states
  5. Layout principles — grid systems, spacing philosophy, responsive strategy
  6. Motion philosophy — animation engine specs, spring physics, perpetual micro-interactions
  7. Anti-patterns — explicit list of banned AI design clichés

Analysis & Synthesis Instructions

1. Define the Atmosphere

Evaluate the target project's intent. Use evocative adjectives from the taste spectrum:

  • Density: "Art Gallery Airy" (1–3) → "Daily App Balanced" (4–7) → "Cockpit Dense" (8–10)
  • Variance: "Predictable Symmetric" (1–3) → "Offset Asymmetric" (4–7) → "Artsy Chaotic" (8–10)
  • Motion: "Static Restrained" (1–3) → "Fluid CSS" (4–7) → "Cinematic Choreography" (8–10)

Default baseline: Variance 8, Motion 6, Density 4. Adapt dynamically based on user's vibe description.

Changes

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.
