Design System (foundation)

SkillDocs & knowledge

Type behavior lives in typography; color roles live in color (this pack extends both). This skill owns the numbers.

Then ask your AI: use the Design System (foundation) skill

Details

Instructions available. Your AI can read the instructions. Execution depends on the setup they require.

Add it as a step in a pipeline you build on Ahel, or connect Ahel to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or Codex and ask your AI to use it.

Tokens + ratios. Paint against the sheet.

Hard rules

  1. Emit design_brief.tokens (and/or typography / palette) when P1 is known.
  2. Prefer roles (primary / surface / muted / accent) over scattered hex.
  3. Hierarchy must jump — e.g. H1:body ≈ 3–4:1 for posters; clear H1 > H2 > body > caption.
  4. Spacing from a base step (4 or 8). No 13/16/15 random margins.
  5. One radius scale (sm/md/lg). One type mood for the board.
  6. If awesome_design_md / brand sheet is loaded — that sheet is law for this run.

Minimal token sheet

Typography: H1 / H2 / H3 / Body / Caption
Spacing: XS SM MD LG XL XXL
Radius: SM MD LG
Colors: Primary Secondary Surface Muted Accent
Grid: columns + max width (UI surfaces)

Ratios matter more than absolute sizes

Hero title : body  ≈ 3.5 : 1
Primary : secondary area ≈ 1.0 : 0.6
Hero : supporting ≈ 70 : 30

Checklist

  • No random per-node sizes
  • Visible type ladder
  • ≤1 accent family; accent area restrained
