Learn: design systems for AI coding agents

Give an AI coding agent a fixed set of tokens, fonts, and written design rules so it stops inventing a new look for every prompt.

Install a complete design system into Claude Code with one command: an MCP server that lets the agent browse, apply, and follow a real DESIGN.md and token set so every screen it builds stays on-brand.

Add Identity Forge's MCP server to Cursor so the Agent can pick a design kit, write its tokens and DESIGN.md into your project, and keep every generated screen consistent.

Connect Identity Forge to Windsurf's Cascade agent with a small MCP config, or use the client-agnostic CLI and shadcn registry, so every screen Cascade builds follows one consistent design system.

Make Vercel's v0 build on-brand UI: feed it a complete design kit as a shadcn registry item plus a DESIGN.md brief, so every generation uses your tokens and fonts instead of the default v0 look.

Make Lovable build every screen on-brand: put a kit's DESIGN.md in project Knowledge and apply its tokens via the shadcn registry in the connected repo, so generations follow one consistent design system.

Bolt runs npm in its browser terminal. Install a kit's tokens there, then give Bolt the matching DESIGN.md as its design brief.

A DESIGN.md is the written design brief your AI coding agent follows so it stops building generic UI. Here is what belongs in one, and how to generate a complete, exportable DESIGN.md from a real design system.

Semantic color tokens use role names such as background, foreground, primary, muted, and border instead of hue names. See all 28 roles in a live light and dark example.

getdesign.md is a catalog of DESIGN.md analyses and a starter kit. Identity Forge pairs a generated DESIGN.md with 28 semantic tokens, fonts, and installable exports.
