Design System Specimen
Generate a self-contained HTML page that renders the design system live.
DESIGN.md Discovery
Find DESIGN.md using this search order:
Check CLAUDE.md in cwd for a reference to DESIGN.md
Look for DESIGN.md in cwd
Search upward from cwd
Search common locations: project root, src/, packages/*/
If not found, tell the user: "No DESIGN.md found. Run /design-systems:create first."
Generation Flow
Step 1: Parse DESIGN.md
Extract everything needed to render the specimen:
System name from the title
Creative North Star name and first paragraph
Full color palette with token names and hex values
Surface hierarchy layering rules
Type scale with font families, sizes, weights
Spacing scale with all token values
Shadow definitions with exact CSS values
Component specs for buttons, cards, inputs
Core Prohibitions for the "What NOT to do" section
Step 2: Generate HTML
Produce a single HTML file. Requirements:
Self-contained: All CSS inline in a <style> block. No external CSS files.
Fonts: Load from Google Fonts CDN via <link> tags. These are the ONLY external dependencies.
Minimal JS: Only for interactive state demonstrations (hover simulation on touch devices, focus state toggling). No frameworks, no build step.
Semantic HTML: Use <header>, <main>, <section>, <article>, <button>, etc.
Accessible: Include aria-label on sections, proper heading hierarchy.
Page structure:
<!DOCTYPE html><htmllang="en"><head><metacharset="UTF-8"><metaname="viewport"content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"><title>Design System Specimen: [Name]</title><!-- Google Fonts --><linkrel="preconnect"href="https://fonts.googleapis.com"><linkrel="preconnect"href="https://fonts.gstatic.com"crossorigin><linkhref="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=[fonts]&display=swap"rel="stylesheet"><style>:root {

});
</script></body></html>
Step 3: Output
Default (disposable preview):
Write the HTML to a temp file: /tmp/design-specimen-[name-slug].html
Open in browser: open /tmp/design-specimen-[name-slug].html (macOS)
