# Design System Patterns

Make your interface consistent by design, not by discipline

## What this does

Your interface has drifted - colors and spacing differ between screens and nobody can say what the real values are. This covers putting a system underneath it: shared tokens for the values, infrastructure for themes, and a structure for components. Reach for it when you are starting a design system or fixing one that never had foundations.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Set up design tokens
- Add theme switching
- Build a component library

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## About Design System Patterns

This covers building design systems that scale: design tokens, theming infrastructure, and patterns for how components are structured.

Use it when you are creating design tokens, implementing theme switching, building a component library, or establishing the foundations a design system rests on.

## Questions

### Is Design System Patterns safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of Design System Patterns and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit be57c0b2e3c0, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/design-system-patterns.

### How do I install Design System Patterns?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/design-system-patterns on Air Market and use the install action: Air Market hands Claude a prompt naming this exact skill, and Claude sets it up. Source, pinned to the exact commit this listing describes: https://github.com/wshobson/agents/tree/be57c0b2e3c05c528ca6132b87410b385718775f/plugins/ui-design/skills/design-system-patterns. Install from that link, not the branch.
