design-system-generator

design-system-generator is a skill for Claude Code from XINGANLIU/design-system-generator-skill. It costs 139 tokens per session (2,727 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A tool that turns one brand color into a design system: shared rules for colors, components, spacing, and themes used to keep an interface consistent.

In plain words
What is it for?
It generates color palettes, design-token JSON, CSS variables, styles for common components, and a preview page with light and dark themes.
Why use it?
It gives a project defined, reusable styling rules instead of requiring each interface element to be designed separately.

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-generator 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 2mo 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 Generator / 设计系统生成器

Generate a complete, production-ready design system from minimal brand inputs. 从最少的品牌输入自动生成完整的、可投产的设计系统。

Core Principles / 核心原则

  1. One Color In → Full System Out: The user only needs to provide a single brand color. Everything else is derived algorithmically.
  2. OKLCH-First: All colors are generated in the OKLCH color space for perceptual uniformity and superior accessibility.
  3. W3C Standards: Output follows the W3C Design Tokens specification ($value / $type format).
  4. Zero Dependencies: Generated CSS uses only native custom properties — no preprocessors, no frameworks required.
  5. Accessibility by Default: All color combinations meet WCAG 2.2 AA contrast ratios (4.5:1 for text, 3:1 for UI elements).
  6. Progressive Enhancement: Dark mode uses color-scheme + light-dark() for native OS integration.

Workflow / 工作流

You MUST follow these phases in order. Do NOT skip phases or generate all files at once without user confirmation at each stage.

你必须按顺序执行以下阶段。不要跳过阶段,也不要在未获得用户确认的情况下一次性生成所有文件。


Phase 1: Brand Input Collection / 品牌输入收集

Trigger / 触发: User asks to create a design system, generate a theme, or build brand styles.

Your Task / 你的任务: Collect brand parameters through conversation. At minimum, you need ONE of these:

Parameter Required Default Example
Brand color ✅ Yes — #6366f1, oklch(55% 0.25 270), indigo
Font family Optional Inter, system-ui, sans-serif "Outfit", "Noto Sans SC"
Border radius style Optional rounded (8px) sharp (2px), rounded (8px), pill (9999px)
Density Optional comfortable compact, comfortable, spacious

Steps:

  1. If user gives a color name (e.g., "blue", "coral"), convert it to a hex value first.
  2. Convert any hex/rgb color to OKLCH using the algorithm in color-system.md.
  3. Present a summary of all parameters to the user and ask for confirmation.
  4. If the user says "just use defaults" or gives only a color, proceed with defaults for all optional fields.

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.
