design-system-tokens

design-system-tokens is a skill for Claude Code from yonatangross/orchestkit. It costs 58 tokens per session (2,694 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of rules for defining design tokens: named values for things like colors, spacing, type, and shadows. It organizes them into reusable layers and can support light and dark themes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create token files, define color and spacing systems, check color contrast, build themes, or convert tokens into platform-specific code.
Why use it?
It keeps design decisions in one shared place instead of repeating values across design files and code. This helps keep interfaces consistent when the same values are used in CSS, Tailwind, iOS, or Android.

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-tokens 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 3d 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 Tokens

Design token management following the W3C Design Token Community Group (DTCG) specification. Tokens provide a single source of truth for design decisions — colors, spacing, typography, elevation — shared between design tools (Figma, Penpot) and code (CSS, Tailwind, iOS, Android). Major adopters include Figma (Variables API), Google (Material Design 3), Microsoft (Fluent UI), and Shopify (Polaris).

Quick Reference

Category Rule File Impact When to Use
W3C Token Format tokens-w3c-format.md CRITICAL Creating or reading .tokens.json files
Contrast Enforcement tokens-contrast-enforcement.md CRITICAL Validating WCAG contrast at token definition time
Three-Tier Hierarchy tokens-three-tier.md HIGH Organizing tokens into global/alias/component layers
OKLCH Color Space tokens-oklch-color.md HIGH Defining colors with perceptual uniformity
Spacing & Depth tokens-spacing-depth.md HIGH Defining elevation shadows and spacing scales as tokens
Style Dictionary tokens-style-dictionary.md HIGH Transforming tokens to CSS/Tailwind/iOS/Android
Theming & Dark Mode tokens-theming-darkmode.md HIGH Implementing theme switching and dark mode
Versioning tokens-versioning.md HIGH Evolving tokens without breaking consumers

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.
