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

Files synced:

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