style-apply

Take an existing Style (.claw/styles/<id>/) and apply it to a Template instance, producing one or more outputs.

Inputs

• styleId: id of an existing Style. List with claw style list.
• templateId: id of an existing Template. List with claw template list [--category <cat>].
• variantId: optional, defaults to the template's first variant.
• data: a JSON file with values for the template's slots.
• format: one or more of html, pdf, png, svg, pptx. Defaults to html.

Procedure

1. Confirm both resources exist:

   claw style get <styleId>
   claw template get <templateId>
   

2. Compose the data.json for the template's slots. For each slot the template declares:
   • kind: heading, subheading, body, list, quote, metric, image, logo, button, divider, shape, table.
   • required: whether to fail if missing.
   • maxLength / maxItems: respect these or surface a warning.
3. Render:

   claw template render <templateId> --style <styleId> --data data.json --format <fmt> --out <path>
   

4. Register the output as a generated example under the style for future "more like this" requests.

Constraints

• Never edit the Style as a side effect of applying it. Applying is a read on the Style.
• If a slot is required and missing, fail with a clear error pointing at the slot id.
• Multiple formats can be produced in one call: --format pdf,png,html.
