Build or audit semantic design tokens in OKLCH, light and dark. Use when the user says "set up design tokens", "audit the token foundation" or "OKLCH colour scales".
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
# Token foundations Build the token layer a product's UI stands on, or audit the one it has. Colour in OKLCH, a semantic layer over raw scales, light and dark from day one, small scales for type, space and radius. Structure stays boring so every screen built on it comes out consistent. This skill works on the tokens themselves. To sweep components for hard-coded colours and swap in tokens, use `polish-design-system` after this. ## The rule underneath Three layers, strictly separate. 1. **Primitives.** Raw values with no meaning: `color.brand.500`, `spacing.4`, `radius.md`. 2. **Semantic tokens.** Say what a value is for and point at a primitive: `background`, `surface.default`, `text.primary`, `action.primary`. Every colour role declares a light and a dark value. 3. **Component tokens.** Only when a reusable component needs one: `button.height.md`, `card.radius`. Never per page. Components use semantic and component tokens only. Never primitives, never raw values. Keep one source of truth. It can be a tokens JSON file that generates the theme CSS, or the theme CSS itself. Everything else is derived from it. Never hand-maintain two copies. ## Steps …

How to install
mdr add tonygorb/skills/token-foundations@sha256:ef476d8eb1904d3dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261013.8f735ab, 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.
