Design Token Manager

When NOT to use

• For applying tokens in components → use /ss-component or /ss-pattern
• For finding token violations in existing code → use /ss-lint
• For brand-wide color/font choices that don't exist yet — define a skin first, then add tokens
• For non-CSS token systems (Figma, native iOS/Android) — Tailwind v4 / CSS variables only

Action: $0 | Token type: $1 Arguments: $ARGUMENTS

Token File Locations

| Type | JSON Source | CSS Implementation | |------|-----------|-------------------| | Colors | tokens/colors.json | css/theme.css :root + @theme inline | | Typography | tokens/typography.json | css/fonts.css + css/base.css | | Spacing | tokens/spacing.json | Tailwind utilities (no custom CSS needed) | | Radius | tokens/radii.json | css/theme.css @theme inline | | Shadows | tokens/shadows.json | css/theme.css :root |

Instructions

list — Show current tokens

Read and display the requested token file in a formatted table.

add — Add new token

1. Add the token to the JSON source file (tokens/*.json)
2. Add the CSS custom property to css/theme.css under :root
3. If it needs a Tailwind utility, add to the @theme inline block
4. If it has a dark mode variant, add to the .dark block

update — Modify existing token

1. Update the value in the JSON source file
2. Update the CSS custom property in theme.css
3. Check all components for direct usage that might need updating

Rules

• Always keep JSON and CSS in sync
• Use semantic names, not descriptive names (--success not --green-500)
• Colors should support both light and dark modes
• New tokens must be added to BOTH the JSON source AND the CSS implementation
