How to author and maintain a `DESIGN.md` file at the root of any Lossless project (site, splash page, plugin landing, fundraise deck) following Google Stitch's open spec. Use whenever a project is missing a `DESIGN.md` and an agent needs the project's visual identity in machine-readable form; whenever the user mentions "design tokens", "design system", "DESIGN.md", or "Stitch spec"; whenever theme/CSS-token work changes the runtime values (new CSS custom property in `:root`, renamed token, new…

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

# Maintain DESIGN.md

> Every Lossless project with a visual surface should have a `DESIGN.md` at its root. It is the **agent-readable contract** that explains the project's visual identity — colors, typography, spacing, components, behavior under hover/focus/dark/light. Both humans and AI agents read it. When the codebase's CSS custom properties drift away from what `DESIGN.md` says, fix `DESIGN.md`.

## When to use this skill

- **Bootstrapping a new project** that needs a `DESIGN.md` from scratch — splash, site, plugin landing, fundraise deck
- **Maintaining an existing `DESIGN.md`** when the runtime CSS / component vocabulary has evolved past what's documented
- **Auditing drift** — the codebase says one thing (e.g. `--radius-md: 12px`), the document says another (e.g. `rounded.md: 8px`); reconcile
- **Adding a project-specific off-spec section** — like the `imagery:` block for the `generate-consistent-og-images` skill — and you want to know where it belongs and how spec-compliant consumers will handle it

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add lossless-group/lossless-agent-skills/maintain-design-md@sha256:feeab5c06b7036b4

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260511.be5b01e, 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.
