design-system

design-system is a skill for Claude Code from sun2443/designer-skills. It costs 52 tokens per session (1,316 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of design-system, Apache-2.0.

A tool for checking, documenting, or extending a design system. A design system is a shared set of visual rules and reusable interface components for building consistent software screens.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit a design system, document a component, or design a new interface pattern that fits existing colours, typography, spacing, and interaction rules.
Why use it?
It helps find inconsistent names and hardcoded visual values. It also records component variants, states, behaviour, and accessibility information so teams can reuse patterns consistently.

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-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 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-system audit                    # Full system audit
/design-system document [component]     # Document a component
/design-system extend [pattern]         # Design a new component or pattern

Components of a Design System

Design Tokens

Atomic values that define the visual language:

  • Colors (brand, semantic, neutral)
  • Typography (scale, weights, line heights)
  • Spacing (scale, component padding)
  • Borders (radius, width)
  • Shadows (elevation levels)
  • Motion (durations, easings)

Components

Reusable UI elements with defined:

  • Variants (primary, secondary, ghost)
  • States (default, hover, active, disabled, loading, error)
  • Sizes (sm, md, lg)
  • Behavior (interactions, animations)
  • Accessibility (ARIA, keyboard)

Patterns

Common UI solutions combining components:

  • Forms (input groups, validation, submission)
  • Navigation (sidebar, tabs, breadcrumbs)
  • Data display (tables, cards, lists)
  • Feedback (toasts, modals, inline messages)

Principles

  1. Consistency over creativity — The system exists so teams don't reinvent the wheel
  2. Flexibility within constraints — Components should be composable, not rigid
  3. Document everything — If it's not documented, it doesn't exist
  4. Version and migrate — Breaking changes need migration paths

Output — Audit

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.
