Design a production-ready Design System and UI/UX visual style guide. Covers design tokens (colors, typography, spacing, shadows, radius), components (buttons, inputs, cards, tables, modals, navigation), layouts, interaction/hover states, iconography, motion design, responsive behavior, accessibility (WCAG 2.2), and dark/light mode rules. Use when starting a new website/app design or standardizing existing branding.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

## Purpose

Produce a design system specification (`design.md` or `design-system.md`) that details the exact visual language of a web project. This specification serves as the single source of truth for styles, ensuring designers, developers, and AI agents build consistent, professional interfaces.

## Input

**Works best with:** The name or concept of the app/website, along with core branding goals.
**Also valuable:** Existing logo files, target audience, primary brand colors, component needs (e.g. data tables, alerts, checkout forms).

**Example invocation:** `Create a design system for a B2B payment gateway admin portal. Needs to look highly professional, secure, and developer-friendly. Dark mode is first-class. Colors should revolve around navy and tech-blue. Needs style rules for tables, dashboard cards, status badges, and transaction grids.`

## Key Concepts

### 1. Atomic Design
Divide the interface into modular units to ensure reuse and scalability:
- **Atoms**: Raw design tokens (colors, typography, spacing) and base elements (buttons, inputs, icons).
- **Molecules**: Groups of atoms functioning together (a form input group with label and error status).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add fattain-naime/engineering-docs/design-system-specification@sha256:a2d114f0893666b0

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260717.2f82174, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
