Script Paths

Script paths in this skill and its references/ are relative to the directory that contains this SKILL.md, not to the project: scripts/<file> is this skill's own scripts/ folder, and ../<skill>/scripts/<file> is a sibling sub-skill installed alongside it. Build the full path from that directory (Claude Code reports it as the skill's base directory when the skill loads) and keep the working directory at the project root — the scripts read and write project files such as docs/brand-guidelines.md, assets/design-tokens.json or src/ relative to it.

Quick Start

Inject brand context into prompts:

node scripts/inject-brand-context.cjs
node scripts/inject-brand-context.cjs --json

Validate an asset:

node scripts/validate-asset.cjs <asset-path>

Extract/compare colors:

node scripts/extract-colors.cjs --palette
node scripts/extract-colors.cjs <image-path>

Brand Sync Workflow

# 1. Edit docs/brand-guidelines.md (or use /brand update)
# 2. Sync to design tokens
node scripts/sync-brand-to-tokens.cjs
# 3. Verify
node scripts/inject-brand-context.cjs --json | head -20

The sync stops when it detects existing token files, :root custom properties or Tailwind v4 @theme variables in common CSS entry points and their local CSS imports, or Tailwind theme colors and presets. Review the reported source before proceeding. If the detected files are the managed assets/design-tokens.* outputs from an earlier sync and replacing them is intentional, re-run with --force.

Files synced:

docs/brand-guidelines.md → Source of truth
assets/design-tokens.json → Token definitions
assets/design-tokens.css → CSS variables
