Design Md
Keeps your design system documented in a single DESIGN.md file instead of scattered across Figma comments, Slack threads, and that one Google Doc nobody can find. Captures tokens, visual rules, and design direction so engineers and designers actually reference the same source. Curated from Google Labs (Stitch), so it fits into the Open Design workflow where Claude discovers it during planning. Honestly most useful if you're tired of "what's the spacing scale again?" questions or rebuilding component styles from memory. Trigger it by mentioning "design.md" or "design tokens doc" and it will scaffold or update the file.
