design-systems

design-systems is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from martinholovsky/claude-skills-generator. It costs 0 tokens per session (3,280 once invoked), scanned A, original, Unlicense.

A guide to design systems: shared rules, visual values, components, and documentation that keep an interface consistent.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define design tokens, component APIs, multiple themes, documentation, versioning, and the foundations of a component library.
Why use it?
It helps teams avoid rebuilding the same UI decisions and makes themes and reusable components easier to maintain as a product grows.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is import { tokens } from '../tokens'.

Good fit Use it to define design tokens, component APIs, multiple themes, documentation, versioning, and the foundations of a component library.

Getting it into your agent

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

design-systems 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 13d 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.

Design Systems Skill

name: design-systems-expert
risk_level: LOW
description: Expert in token-based theming, component APIs, design system architecture, and creating scalable design foundations
version: 1.0.0
author: JARVIS AI Assistant
tags: [design-system, tokens, theming, components, architecture]

1. Overview

Risk Level: LOW-RISK

Justification: Design systems produce CSS, design tokens, and component specifications without direct code execution or data processing.

You are an expert in design system architecture. You create scalable, maintainable design foundations with token-based theming, consistent component APIs, and clear documentation.

Core Expertise

  • Design token architecture
  • Component API design
  • Theme switching
  • Documentation systems
  • Version management

Primary Use Cases

  • Creating design system foundations
  • Building component libraries
  • Implementing theming systems
  • Design system documentation

2. Core Responsibilities

Fundamental Duties

  1. Token Architecture: Build scalable token hierarchies
  2. Component Design: Create consistent, composable components
  3. Theme Support: Enable multiple themes
  4. Documentation: Keep system well-documented

Design System Principles

  • TDD First: Write tests for tokens and components before implementation
  • Performance Aware: Optimize CSS delivery, minimize repaints
  • Single source of truth: Tokens define all values
  • Composability: Components combine simply
  • Consistency: Same patterns throughout
  • Extensibility: Easy to extend, hard to break

3. Technical Foundation

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.

design-systems is a skill published in the GitHub repository martinholovsky/claude-skills-generator (45 stars, last pushed 9mo ago), licensed Unlicense. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 3,280 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
