Description
Add strategic color to features that are too monochromatic or lack visual interest. Makes interfaces more engaging and expressive.
Context Gathering (Do This First)
You cannot do a great job without having necessary context, such as target audience (critical), desired use-cases (critical), brand personality/tone, and especially existing brand colors. Attempt to gather these from the current thread or codebase. • If you don't find exact information and have to infer from existing design and functionality, you MUST STOP and STOP and call the AskUserQuestionTool to clarify. whether you got it right. • Otherwise, if you can't fully infer or your level of confidence is medium or lower, you MUST STOP and call the AskUserQuestionTool to clarify. clarifying questions first to complete your context. Do NOT proceed until you have answers. Guessing leads to generic AI slop colors.
Use frontend-design skill
Use the frontend-design skill for design principles and anti-patterns. Do NOT proceed until it has executed and you know all DO's and DON'Ts. ---
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? • Identify where color adds value: • Semantic meaning: Success (green), error (red), warning (yellow/orange), info (blue) • Hierarchy: Drawing attention to important elements • Categorization: Different sections, types, or states • Emotional tone: Warmth, energy, trust, creativity • Wayfinding: Helping users navigate and understand structure • Delight: Moments of visual interest and personality If any of these are unclear from the codebase, STOP and call the AskUserQuestionTool to clarify. CRITICAL: More color ≠ better. Strategic color beats rainbow vomit every time. Every color should have a purpose.
Plan Color Strategy
Create a purposeful color introduction plan: • Color palette: What colors match the brand/context? (Choose 2-4 colors max beyond neutrals) • Dominant color: Which color owns 60% of colored elements? • Accent colors: Which colors provide contrast and highlights? (30% and 10%) • Application strategy: Where does each color appear and why? IMPORTANT: Color should enhance hierarchy and meaning, not create chaos. Less is more when it matters more.
