SKILL.md
Strategically introduce color to designs that are too monochromatic, gray, or lacking in visual warmth and personality.
MANDATORY PREPARATION
Users start this workflow with /colorize. Once this skill is active, load $frontend-design — it contains design principles, anti-patterns, and the Context Gathering Protocol. Follow that protocol before proceeding — if no design context exists yet, you MUST load $setup first. Additionally gather: existing brand colors.
Assess Color Opportunity
Analyze the current state and identify opportunities:
- Understand current state:
- Color absence: Pure grayscale? Limited neutrals? One timid accent?
- Missed opportunities: Where could color add meaning, hierarchy, or delight?
- Context: What's appropriate for this domain and audience?
- Brand: Are there existing brand colors we should use?
- Temperature: Do the neutrals feel warm, cool, or accidentally lifeless?
- Hierarchy without color: If you mentally remove color, is the interface still clear?
