theme-styling skillA
theme-styling is agent-read markdown (skill) from mendixlabs/mxcli: The SCSS workflow and its traps — where styling actually compiles, custom-variables.scss, themesource directories, hot reload, design-property errors, and the mxcli theme commands (apply, create --from a design, switchable sets, light/dark). Use when writing or debugging SCSS, when applying or building a theme, when giving an app a brand palette or design tokens, or when styling silently fails to appear..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Theme & Styling — SCSS Workflow and Caveats ## When to Use This Skill Use this skill when working with: - SCSS compilation, `custom-variables.scss`, or `themesource/` directories - Applying or building a theme (`mxcli theme apply | create | switcher`) - Giving an app a brand palette, or turning design tokens into a theme - CSS hot-reload during Docker development - Debugging styling crashes or design property issues **Do not hand-write a theme scaffold.** `mxcli theme apply` writes a complete, verified one; `mxcli theme create <name> --from <design-file>` makes a theme the project owns and seeds its palette from `--mxt-*` declarations. See "A theme of your own" below. Hand-editing inside a generated block works exactly once — the digest fence refuses it on the next apply. For **MDL styling commands** (`show design properties`, `describe styling`, `alter styling`, inline `designproperties:`, `update widgets`), see: - Existing proposal: `docs/11-proposals/page-styling-support.md` - Working examples: `mdl-examples/doctype-tests/12-styling-examples.mdl` (595 lines) - Implementation: `mdl/executor/cmd_styling.go`, `mdl/executor/theme_reader.go` ## SCSS Compilation Chain …
