generate-ui-from-brand

generate-ui-from-brand is a skill for Claude Code from dembrandt/dembrandt-skills. It costs 40 tokens per session (2,937 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow that turns a website URL or a DESIGN.md file into a concrete user-interface specification. It extracts visual details, organises them into meaningful design tokens, applies user-experience principles, and records decisions for implementation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when building a branded interface from scratch, auditing a design system, or converting an existing website’s visual language into a usable UI specification.
Why use it?
It reduces the need to make design decisions from scattered observations or raw CSS values. The result gives a developer an actionable structure for building or reviewing an interface for an existing brand.

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

generate-ui-from-brand 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 26d 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.

generate-ui-from-brand

Type: Pipeline / Orchestrator
Input: URL or existing DESIGN.md
Output: Actionable UI spec with decisions made


Step 1 — Extract

If a URL is provided and Dembrandt MCP is available:

All MCP extraction tools are async — they return a job_id immediately. Poll get_job_status until status is "completed", then read result.

{ job_id } = get_design_tokens({ url })
{ result } = get_job_status({ job_id })   // repeat until status === "completed"

Run these in sequence (each extraction launches a browser):

get_design_tokens, get_color_palette, get_typography, get_component_styles, get_spacing

If Dembrandt MCP is not available, run CLI:

npx dembrandt <url> --design-md --crawl 3

If DESIGN.md already exists: parse it directly — skip extraction.


Step 2 — Normalize Tokens

Do not use raw extracted values directly. Map them to a semantic system first.

Colours

Identify the role of each extracted colour:

Role Token How to identify
color-primary Main brand colour Used on primary buttons, links, key interactive elements
color-secondary Supporting brand colour Used on secondary actions, accents
color-surface Background Page or card background
color-surface-raised Elevated surface Cards, panels, modals
color-border Border / divider Input borders, separators
color-text Primary text Body copy
color-text-secondary Secondary text Labels, metadata, captions
color-error Error state Red — do not assign to any other role
color-warning Warning state Orange/amber — do not assign to any other role
color-success Success state Green — do not assign to any other role

Decision rule: if the extracted palette has more than 2 brand colours competing for color-primary, pick the one with highest usage on interactive elements.

Typography

Map extracted sizes to a scale. Verify ratio coherence — if sizes do not follow a consistent ratio, round them to the nearest modular scale step (base 16px, ratio 1.25 recommended).

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.
