Color Operations

Practical color knowledge for developers and designers. Covers color spaces, accessibility, palette generation, CSS implementation, and design token architecture.

Inspired by meodai/skill.color-expert - a comprehensive 286K-word color science knowledge base with 113 reference files. This is a lightweight operational skill for everyday frontend and design work. For deep color science (spectral mixing, historical color theory, CAM16, pigment physics), install the full skill.

Color Space Decision Table

Pick the right space for the task. This is the single most impactful color decision you'll make.

Task Use Why
Perceptual color manipulation OKLCH Best uniformity for lightness, chroma, hue
CSS gradients & palettes OKLCH or color-mix(in oklab) No mid-gradient grey/brown deadzone
Gamut-aware color picking OKHSL / OKHSV Cylindrical like HSL but perceptually grounded
Normalized saturation (0-100%) HSLuv CIELUV chroma normalized per hue/lightness
Print workflows CIELAB D50 ICC standard illuminant
Screen workflows OKLAB D65 standard, perceptually uniform
Color difference (precision) CIEDE2000 Gold standard perceptual distance metric
