migrate-design-system
Map this token system to or from any external design system (Material Design 3, Apple HIG, Fluent, Carbon, Ant, shadcn/ui, Radix, Chakra, Mantine, Bootstrap…). Adopt their look, build on their stack, or migrate between systems. Use when the user mentions interop, migration, or a specific design-system/component-library bridge.

Install
Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.
npx skills add https://github.com/plugin87/ux-ui-agent-skills --skill migrate-design-system- 01
Install
Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.
- 02
Describe the task
Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads migrate-design-system automatically when relevant.
- 03
Review the result
The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

Skill: Migrate / Interop Design System
Step 0: is the kit here? This skill reads files from the kit. Check once:
ls ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../tokens >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo KIT_OK || echo KIT_MISSINGOnKIT_MISSINGonly the skill folders were installed, which is whatnpx skills adddoes. Say so plainly, point the user atnpx ux-ui-agent-skills initor the plugin install, and stop. Do not guess the contents of a file you could not open.
Bridge to or from external design systems via a role-based crosswalk.
Steps
- Read
${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../design-systems/interop-protocol.md(Crosswalk Method, the three directions, headless-vs-styled guidance, verification). - Use the curated tables in
${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../design-systems/crosswalk.mdfor Material 3 / Apple HIG / Fluent 2 / Carbon / shadcn/ui / Radix. For others, derive a mapping with the Crosswalk Method (map by role/intent across 6 axes: color roles, type scale, spacing unit, radius, elevation, motion). - Choose the direction:
- FROM external → our tokens (adopt their look): re-point
semantic.*. - TO external stack (our components on their foundation): theme their primitives with our tokens.
- Migrate: Audit → Map → Bridge (alias layer) → Verify, screen by screen.
- FROM external → our tokens (adopt their look): re-point
- Verify every mapped color pair for contrast (
${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../scripts/contrast.py/a11y-audit); confirm all 8 states + dark mode survive the mapping.
Output
A crosswalk table (our token → their token → value note), a bridge plan if migrating, and verified token overrides. Render via design-code.

image-to-code
plugin87/ux-ui-agent-skills
Turn a reference image, screenshot, or mockup into token-driven, accessible code. Infer the design system from the reference (palette, type scale, spacing, radius, layout archetype), map it to the 3-tier tokens, rebuild it, then verify with the kit's gates. Use when the user provides a design/screenshot and wants matching UI code.
design-review
plugin87/ux-ui-agent-skills
Review or audit a design/UI across 6 weighted dimensions with Nielsen's 10 heuristics and a prioritized findings table. Use when the user wants a design critique, quality score, heuristic evaluation, or audit of an existing screen, page, or product before/after build.
a11y-audit
plugin87/ux-ui-agent-skills
Audit a UI or design against WCAG 2.2 AA/AAA and ARIA patterns, returning criterion-referenced findings with severity and specific fixes. Use when the user wants an accessibility check, contrast verification, keyboard/screen-reader review, or wants to confirm a component meets POUR.
design-tokens
plugin87/ux-ui-agent-skills
Generate, extend, or audit design tokens in DTCG format with the 3-tier architecture (primitive → semantic → component). Use when the user wants a color palette, type scale, spacing/shadow/radius/motion tokens, multi-brand theming, or wants to validate token files. Covers colors, typography, spacing, shadows, borders, breakpoints, motion, gradients, opacity, blur, sizing, states, theming.
redesign
plugin87/ux-ui-agent-skills
Upgrade an existing website or app to premium quality without breaking functionality. Audit the current design, identify generic/AI tells, then apply taste and system rules surgically. Use when the user wants to improve, modernize, polish, or "make better" an existing UI/codebase.
apply-aesthetic
plugin87/ux-ui-agent-skills
Apply a visual direction, an archetype (high-end agency, editorial minimal, brutalist, soft-SaaS, dark-tech) or one of 2,144 named design systems (apple, linear-app, stripe, vercel, notion, material, shadcn, spotify, tesla…), by resolving it into the token system. Use when the user wants a specific look/vibe/brand feel, or asks to make a design feel premium/expensive/non-generic.
