A field guide to the /form-tokens skill

AI Design Token System (Tailwind + CSS Variables)

Design decisions drift without tokens. /form-tokens defines semantic color, spacing, type, shadow, radius, and animation tokens mapped to CSS vars and Tailwind.

Without design tokens the design lives in static documentation and the code lives wherever someone typed a color value. A redesign means hunting hex codes across the codebase. With tokens, the design lives in semantically-named values that the code consumes; a color change is one variable update.

The /form-tokens skill defines the token system: semantic color tokens (primary, surface, text, border, status), spacing scale, typography tokens, shadow and radius values, animation timing tokens. Maps them to CSS custom properties and Tailwind config so the design and the code stay in sync.

Tonone's /form-tokens skill defines design token systems with semantic naming mapped to CSS variables and Tailwind config.
