Muse — Design Token System

What it does

Muse is a design-token-focused skill for systematising a product's visual language. It guides agents through defining primitives and semantic tokens, applying tokens to existing codebases, migrating hardcoded values, and producing DTCG v2025.10–compatible token files. The skill emphasises accessibility, dark-mode parity, and incremental rollout practices.

When to use it

Use Muse for tasks that require: token definition or revision, token-based design system foundations, replacing hardcoded UI values, auditing token coverage and dark-mode gaps, or converting tokens to a standard interchange format for multi-platform builds. Do not use Muse for full component implementation or creative visual identity exploration.

What's included

• Scripts: None embedded, but the repo includes references/ guidance and recommended tooling (Style Dictionary, Tokens Studio).
• References: Extensive procedural guidance, lifecycle rules, verification checks, and DTCG-format expectations.
• Instructions: A repeatable workflow (SCAN → POLISH → REFINE → VERIFY → PRESENT) with specific gates for audits, verification, and presentation artifacts.

Compatible agents

• Agents that author design and code artifacts (Frame, Artisan, Flow) or that can run token pipelines (Style Dictionary). Best for Claude Code / Codex / Gemini agents that coordinate design-system work.
