- designbook/ local mirror of the Claude Design project, with conventions (@dsCard/manifest) and freshness marker docs. - make designbook-sync + scripts/designbook-sync.mjs: record what a sync changed into RecentChanges.md, grouped by layer, with last /design-sync time. - make designbook-check + scripts/check_designbook_staleness.py: llm-connect (claude-code adapter) backend that detects when the cloud designbook moved ahead and warns the local mirror is outdated. - .design-sync/config.json: recorded target project pin (WhyNot Design System). - WHYNOT-WP-0002: workplan for a technology-neutral designbook IR with scaffold+drift-detect stack adapters (Lit reference). - gitignore Python artifacts.

# designbook/
|
|
|
|
Local mirror of the **whynot** Claude Design project (the atelier — source of truth
|
|
for the visual *language*). This directory is written and read by the `/design-sync`
|
|
skill (the `DesignSync` tool over the claude.ai login). It is **not** edited by the
|
|
build scripts; `tokens/` and `src/styles/` in the repo root are *derived* from it.
|
|
|
|
See `DesignSystemIntroduction.md` §1 (three places) and §5 (the atelier → repo hop),
|
|
and `RecentChanges.md` (regenerated by `make designbook-sync`) for the last diff.
|
|
|
|
## How it syncs
|
|
|
|
The designbook is a cloud project of type `PROJECT_TYPE_DESIGN_SYSTEM`. Sync is
|
|
**two-way and incremental — one component at a time, never a wholesale replace**:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/design-sync # in Claude Code: pull the project into this
|
|
# directory (or push built UI back to the canvas)
|
|
node scripts/designbook-sync.mjs --mark-synced # stamp when the pull happened
|
|
make designbook-sync # record what changed + last-sync time → RecentChanges.md
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Freshness marker — `.design-sync.json`
|
|
|
|
`make designbook-sync` only reflects the latest design **if `/design-sync` has been run**.
|
|
It cannot pull on its own (the pull is an agent step), so freshness is tracked in
|
|
`.design-sync.json`:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "lastSyncAt": "<ISO>", "remoteUpdatedAt": "<ISO>", "projectId": "…", "projectName": "…" }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- `--mark-synced` (run right after `/design-sync`) sets `lastSyncAt` to now. `RecentChanges.md`
|
|
and the `make` output then show **"Last /design-sync: <datetime>"**.
|
|
- To detect that the cloud moved ahead, run **`make designbook-check`** — backed by
|
|
**llm-connect**. It uses the `claude-code` adapter to ask the local `claude` binary for the
|
|
project's current `updatedAt` via `DesignSync.list_projects`, then records it with
|
|
`node scripts/designbook-sync.mjs --remote-updated <iso>`. (Only the `claude-code` adapter can
|
|
see your Claude Design project; no secret goes in the prompt — DesignSync uses the claude.ai
|
|
login.) If `remoteUpdatedAt` is newer than `lastSyncAt`, every report **warns that the local
|
|
mirror is OUTDATED** until the next `/design-sync`. Run the check offline/manually with
|
|
`python scripts/check_designbook_staleness.py --remote-updated <iso>`.
|
|
- If no sync has ever been recorded, the report warns that `/design-sync` has not run.
|
|
|
|
Anthropic's guidance for keeping the system on-brand:
|
|
|
|
- **Give explicit constraints** (fonts, colors, spacing, layout) — see `../README.md`,
|
|
which is the authoritative language spec. Vague input drifts to generic output.
|
|
- **Show real rendered UI**, not just a token sheet — the `examples/` pages double as
|
|
brand exemplars here.
|
|
- **Test one component before a full page.** If output is off, make the language more
|
|
explicit and retest — cheaper in tokens than fixing a whole screen.
|
|
|
|
