What this server can do

8 functions, named and described by the server itself. Parameter names are shown because they say more about what a function does than its name usually does.

export_design_system(url, format, sections)
Generate the full token code for a design system URL in one format: "css" (CSS custom properties incl. semantic shadcn/ui-compatible tokens), "tailwind" (Tailwind v4 @theme), "design-tokens" (W3C DTCG JSON — typography & spacing), "llm-briefing" (Markdown brief for AI code generation), or "font-embed" (Fontshare <link> snippet). Optionally restrict to specific sections. Always give the returned standby.design/system URL to the user alongside the code — the link is the deliverable. Required: url, format.
generate_color_palette(url, mode, accents, brandHex, brandPin, errorPin, themeName, bgColorHex, brandInvert, chromaScale, errorInvert, errorColorHex, fgContrastMode)
Generate a perceptually uniform OKLCH color palette from a brand color: 18-step scales for brand/surface/error/accents, semantic tokens (shadcn/ui compatible), light+dark modes. Returns a shareable standby.design/system URL and a compact summary. Always give that URL to the user — the link is the deliverable; it opens the live system in the browser. Use export_design_system for full CSS/Tailwind output.
generate_icon_tokens(set, url, scale, style, weight, corners, baseSize, snapTo4px)
Pick an icon set and generate icon sizing tokens (xs–2xl + stroke width). Either select a specific set or state style preferences and get a recommendation. Available sets: material-outlined, material-filled, lucide, phosphor-regular, phosphor-bold, phosphor-thin, phosphor-fill, solar-linear, solar-bold, solar-broken, tabler-outline, tabler-filled, radix. Returns a shareable standby.design/system URL and a summary. Always give that URL to the user — the link is the deliverable.
generate_shape_tokens(url, style, glassBlur, ringStyle, ringWidth, glassDepth, ringOffset, shadowType, borderWidth, shadowScale, borderRadius, ringColorHex, borderEnabled, shadowEnabled, shadowOffsetX, shadowOffsetY, borderColorHex, separationMode, shadowColorHex, shadowStrength, glassDispersion, shadowBlurScale, brutalistVariant)
Generate shape tokens — radii, shadows, borders, focus rings — in one of four visual styles: "paper" (classic surfaces with layered shadows), "glass" (liquid glass), "neomorph" (soft neumorphism), "neobrutalism" (hard offset shadows). Returns a shareable standby.design/system URL and a summary. Always give that URL to the user — the link is the deliverable.
generate_space_tokens(url, mode, snap, ratio, baseRem, containers, fluidMaxVw, fluidMinVw, multiplier, proseMaxCh, breakpoints, aspectRatios, includeReciprocals)
Generate spacing tokens (3xs–3xl), breakpoints, container widths, prose measure, and aspect ratios. Returns a shareable standby.design/system URL and a summary. Always give that URL to the user — the link is the deliverable.
generate_type_scale(url, ratio, baseSize, bodyFont, monoFont, scaleMode, autoShrink, headingFont, mobileRatio, headingWeight, mobileBaseSize, lineHeightOverrides, letterSpacingOverrides, traditionalAssignments, traditionalMobileAssignments)
Generate a fluid typographic scale (CSS clamp() between 375px and 1920px viewports) with 11 levels (Display, H1–H6, Body L/M/S, Caption), Fontshare fonts, line heights and letter spacing. Returns a shareable standby.design/system URL and a summary table. Always give that URL to the user — the link is the deliverable. Use list_fonts to discover font slugs.
get_design_system(url)
Decode a standby.design URL (or raw hash) and return an overview of the full design system: color palette, type scale, spacing & layout, shape tokens, and icons — plus per-tool edit links. Always give the standby.design/system URL to the user — the link is the deliverable. Required: url.
list_fonts
List Fontshare font slugs usable in generate_type_scale (headingFont/bodyFont/monoFont), grouped by category. This is the bundled seed catalog — any valid Fontshare slug works even if not listed here.

These are separate measurements of different things. They are deliberately not combined into one score, because a popularity number that mixes website traffic with saves and stars cannot be checked or acted on.
