design-extractExtract design tokens (color / typography / spacing) from imported source code, screenshots, or Figma exports into the canonical token bag token-map consumes.
Design Extract is an agent skill from nexu-io/open-design. Extract design tokens (color / typography / spacing) from imported source code, screenshots, or Figma exports into the canonical token bag token-map consumes.
Its SKILL.md is about 550 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `open-design.json`).
It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Design tokens and Typography. It works with Figma and Tailwind CSS. The repository describes itself as: 🎨 Best DeepSeek Harness Design Plugin. The open-source Claude Design alternative. 🖥️ Local-first desktop app. 🖼️ Your coding agent becomes the design engine: prototypes… The licence is Apache-2.0.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 17e2559. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are jsonc).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Design Extract loads about 549 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 43 tokens; SKILL.md has 206 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

files / Tailwind config / styled-components helpers / SCSS partials
need to be lifted into one bag before token-map can crosswalk
them onto the active OD design system. This atom does the lifting;
the input shape is intentionally generic so the same atom serves
both code-migration and figma-migration when fed different sources.
code/index.json from code-import (code-migration), ORfigma/tree.json from figma-extract (figma-migration), ORproject-cwd/
└── code/
└── tokens.json # { colors[], typography[], spacing[], radius[], shadow[] }Each token entry carries:
{
"kind": "color",
"name": "primary-500", // optional source name
"value": "#5b8def", // canonical value
"sources": ["styles/global.css:42", "tailwind.config.js:24"],
"usage": ["Header.tsx", "Footer.tsx"]
}sources[] and usage[] are the audit trail token-map.unmatched.json
references when a target token can't be found.
The atom completes when code/tokens.json exists. Empty token bags
emit a warning event but do not abort — token-map handles the
empty case by skipping its mapping pass.
color: '#fff') are
tokens for this atom's purposes; record them with kind:'color'
and a synthetic name so they don't disappear into the noise.bg-blue-500 and bg-blue-600 as one
token.Implemented by the daemon runner in
apps/daemon/src/plugins/atoms/design-extract.ts. It scans the indexed
source files, extracts CSS, Tailwind, and JavaScript token evidence, and
writes code/tokens.json.

Design Extract is an agent skill from nexu-io/open-design. Extract design tokens (color / typography / spacing) from imported source code, screenshots, or Figma exports into the canonical token bag token-map consumes.
Design Extract fits situations like: tasks that involve Design tokens; tasks that involve Typography.
Run `npx skills add nexu-io/open-design --skill design-extract -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (plugins/_official/atoms/design-extract in nexu-io/open-design) into .claude/skills/design-extract in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add nexu-io/open-design --skill design-extract -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (plugins/_official/atoms/design-extract in nexu-io/open-design) into .agents/skills/design-extract in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add nexu-io/open-design --skill design-extract -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/design-extract, .gemini/skills/design-extract, .github/skills/design-extract and .opencode/skills/design-extract in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Design Extract is instructions for the agent only.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Design Extract is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 549 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2.2k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
