{"scenario":"code-migration","mode":"extract"}
# Design extract Spec §10 / §21.3.2: tokens scattered across a repo's CSS / theme files / Tailwind config / styled-components helpers / SCSS partials need to be lifted into one bag before `token-map` can crosswalk them onto the active OD design system. This atom does the lifting; the input shape is intentionally generic so the same atom serves both code-migration and figma-migration when fed different sources. ## Inputs - `code/index.json` from `code-import` (code-migration), OR - `figma/tree.json` from `figma-extract` (figma-migration), OR - A folder of screenshot images (tune-collab quick-tune flows). ## Output ```text project-cwd/ └── code/ └── tokens.json # { colors[], typography[], spacing[], radius[], shadow[] } ``` Each token entry carries: ```jsonc { "kind": "color", "name": "primary-500", // optional source name "value": "#5b8def", // canonical value "sources": ["styles/global.css:42", "tailwind.config.js:24"], "usage": ["Header.tsx", "Footer.tsx"] } ``` `sources[]` and `usage[]` are the audit trail `token-map.unmatched.json` references when a target token can't be found. ## Convergence The atom completes when `code/tokens.json` exists. Empty token bags emit a warning event but do not abort — `token-map` handles the empty case by skipping its mapping pass. ## Anti-patterns the prompt fragment forbids - Hard-coded hex values inside JSX literals (`color: '#fff'`) are tokens for this atom's purposes; record them with `kind:'color'` and a synthetic name so they don't disappear into the noise. - Tailwind utility scans must dedupe palette references against the active theme — never list `bg-blue-500` and `bg-blue-600` as one token. ## Status Implemented by the daemon runner in `apps/daemon/src/plugins/atoms/design-extract.ts`. It scans the indexed source files, extracts CSS, Tailwind, and JavaScript token evidence, and writes `code/tokens.json`.
