🔍 Design System Detection

Step 1: Check package.json

// Priority detection order
if (deps['@mui/material']) return 'material-ui';
if (deps['antd']) return 'ant-design';
if (deps['@chakra-ui/react']) return 'chakra-ui';
if (deps['@mantine/core']) return 'mantine';
if (deps['nativewind']) return 'nativewind';
if (deps['bootstrap'] || deps['react-bootstrap']) return 'bootstrap';
if (deps['@headlessui/react']) return 'headless-ui';
if (deps['@radix-ui/react-dialog']) return 'radix-ui';
if (deps['tailwindcss']) {
  if (existsSync('components.json')) return 'shadcn-ui';
  return 'tailwind-css';
}

Step 2: Check Config Files

• tailwind.config.js → Tailwind CSS
• components.json → shadcn/ui
• nativewind.config.js → NativeWind

Step 3: Analyze Imports

// Check existing component imports
if (imports.includes("from '@mui/")) return 'material-ui';
if (imports.includes("from 'antd")) return 'ant-design';
if (imports.includes("from '@chakra-ui/")) return 'chakra-ui';
if (imports.includes('from "@/components/ui/')) return 'shadcn-ui';

Step 4: Load Skill File

After detection, load:
→ skills/design-system-library/{detected-system}.md

📋 Analysis Process

1. Receive Design Screenshots

User provides:
- Screenshot(s) of UI design
- Platform (mobile/web/tablet)
- Context (feature name, requirements)

2. Visual Analysis

Analyze:
- Layout structure (grid, flex)
- Component hierarchy
- Spacing & alignment
- Colors & gradients
- Typography (fonts, sizes, weights)
- Icons & images
- Interactive states (hover, active, disabled)
- Responsive behavior

3. Component Breakdown

├── Header
│   ├── Logo
│   ├── Navigation
│   └── Actions
├── Content
│   ├── Section1
│   │   ├── Title

  borderRadius: {
    sm: '4px',
    md: '8px',
    lg: '12px',
    xl: '16px',
    full: '9999px',
  },
  
  shadows: {
    sm: '0 1px 2px rgba(0,0,0,0.05)',
    md: '0 4px 6px rgba(0,0,0,0.1)',
    lg: '0 10px 15px rgba(0,0,0,0.1)',
  },
};

🎨 Design System Code Generation

Component Generation by System

After detecting the design system, generate components following that system's patterns:

Material UI Example

import { Dialog, DialogTitle, DialogContent, DialogActions, Button, TextField } from '@mui/material';

export function ShareModal({ open, onClose }) {
  return (
    <Dialog open={open} onClose={onClose} maxWidth="sm" fullWidth>
      <DialogTitle>Share to Social Media</DialogTitle>
      <DialogContent>
        <TextField multiline rows={4} fullWidth label="Message" />
      </DialogContent>
      <DialogActions>
        <Button onClick={onClose}>Cancel</Button>
        <Button variant="contained" color="primary">Post</Button>
      </DialogActions>
    </Dialog>
  );
}

shadcn/ui Example

import { Dialog, DialogContent, DialogHeader, DialogTitle, DialogFooter } from "@/components/ui/dialog";
import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button";
import { Textarea } from "@/components/ui/textarea";

export function ShareModal({ open, onOpenChange }) {
  return (
    <Dialog open={open} onOpenChange={onOpenChange}>
      <DialogContent className="sm:max-w-md">
        <DialogHeader>
          <DialogTitle>Share to Social Media</DialogTitle>
        </DialogHeader>
        <Textarea placeholder="Enter your message..." className="min-h-[100px]" />
        <DialogFooter>
          <Button variant="outline" onClick={() => onOpenChange(false)}>Cancel</Button>
          <Button>Post</Button>
        </DialogFooter>
      </DialogContent>
    </Dialog>
  );
}

Chakra UI Example

import { Modal, ModalOverlay, ModalContent, ModalHeader, ModalBody, ModalFooter, Button, Textarea } from '@chakra-ui/react';

export function ShareModal({ isOpen, onClose }) {
  return (
    <Modal isOpen={isOpen} onClose={onClose} isCentered>
      <ModalOverlay />
      <ModalContent>
        <ModalHeader>Share to Social Media</ModalHeader>
        <ModalBody>
          <Textarea placeholder="Enter your message..." minH="100px" />
        </ModalBody>
        <ModalFooter gap={2}>
          <Button variant="ghost" onClick={onClose}>Cancel</Button>
          <Button colorScheme="blue">Post</Button>
        </ModalFooter>
      </ModalContent>
    </Modal>
  );
}

NativeWind Example

import { Modal, View, Text, TextInput, Pressable } from 'react-native';

export function ShareModal({ visible, onClose }) {
  return (
    <Modal visible={visible} transparent animationType="slide">
      <Pressable onPress={onClose} className="flex-1 bg-black/50 justify-end">
        <View className="bg-white rounded-t-3xl p-6">
          <Text className="text-xl font-semibold mb-4">Share to Social Media</Text>
          <TextInput
            multiline
            className="border border-gray-300 rounded-lg p-3 min-h-[100px]"
            placeholder="Enter your message..."
          />
          <View className="flex-row gap-3 mt-4">
            <Pressable onPress={onClose} className="flex-1 py-3 border border-gray-300 rounded-lg">
              <Text className="text-center text-gray-700">Cancel</Text>
            </Pressable>
            <Pressable className="flex-1 py-3 bg-blue-600 rounded-lg">
              <Text className="text-center text-white font-semibold">Post</Text>
            </Pressable>
          </View>
        </View>
      </Pressable>
    </Modal>
  );
}
