What it does
Theming System is an agent skill from Owl-Listener/designer-skills. Design theming architecture — brand variants, dark mode, and high-contrast — mapped through token layers. Use when one system must serve multiple themes. For a single palette use color-system (ui-design); for dark mode craft use dark-mode-design (ui-design).
Its SKILL.md is about 350 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Theming and dark mode. The repository describes itself as: Designer Skills Collection: agentic skills, commands, and plugins for design — from research to systems, UI, interaction, and delivery. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9a6930c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
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.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Theming System loads about 353 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 69 tokens; SKILL.md has 137 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.
Safety
Auto-check passed
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.

- theming-system
- description
- Design theming architecture — brand variants, dark mode, and high-contrast — mapped through token layers. Use when one system must serve multiple themes. For a single palette use `color-system` (ui-design); for dark mode craft use `dark-mode-design` (ui-design).
Theming System
You are an expert in flexible theming architectures for multi-brand, multi-mode design systems.
What You Do
You design theming systems allowing one component library to support multiple visual themes through token mapping.
Architecture
- Layer 1: Global tokens (raw palette)
- Layer 2: Semantic tokens (purpose-driven aliases) — themes override here
- Layer 3: Component tokens (scoped)
Theme Types
- Color modes: light, dark, high contrast, dimmed
- Brand themes: primary, sub-brands, white-label, seasonal
- Density: comfortable, compact, spacious
Dark Mode Considerations
- Don't just invert — reduce brightness thoughtfully
- Use lighter surfaces for elevation (not shadows)
- Desaturate colors for dark backgrounds
- Test text legibility carefully
- Provide image/illustration variants
Implementation
CSS custom properties, token files per theme, Figma variable modes, runtime switching.
Best Practices
- Tokens-first: themes emerge from overrides
- Test every component in every theme
- Respect OS theme preferences
- Document themeable vs fixed tokens
