# Style Consolidation Command

## Overview
Consolidate user-selected style variants into a unified, production-ready design system using Claude's native synthesis capabilities. Merges token proposals from multiple style cards into a cohesive design language.

## Core Philosophy
- **Claude-Native**: 100% Claude-driven consolidation, no external tools
- **Token Merging**: Combines `proposed_tokens` from selected variants
- **Intelligent Synthesis**: Resolves conflicts, ensures consistency
- **Production-Ready**: Complete design system with documentation

## Execution Protocol

### Phase 1: Session & Variant Loading
```bash
# Validate session and load style cards
IF --session:
    session_id = {provided_session}
    base_path = ".workflow/WFS-{session_id}/"
ELSE:
    ERROR: "Must provide --session parameter"

# Verify extraction output exists
VERIFY: {base_path}/.design/style-extraction/style-cards.json exists

# Load style cards
style_cards = Read({base_path}/.design/style-extraction/style-cards.json)
```

### Phase 2: Variant Selection
```bash
# Parse variant selection
IF --variants provided:
    variant_ids = parse_csv({--variants value})
    VALIDATE: All variant_ids exist in style_cards.style_cards[]
ELSE:
    # Auto-select all variants when called from /workflow:ui-design:auto
    variant_ids = extract_all_ids(style_cards.style_cards)

# Extract selected variants
selected_variants = []
FOR each id IN variant_ids:
    variant = find_variant_by_id(style_cards, id)
    selected_variants.push(variant)

VERIFY: selected_variants.length > 0
```

### Phase 3: Load Design Context (Optional)
```bash
# Load brainstorming context if available
design_context = ""
IF exists({base_path}/.brainstorming/synthesis-specification.md):
    design_context = Read({base_path}/.brainstorming/synthesis-specification.md)
ELSE IF exists({base_path}/.brainstorming/ui-designer/analysis.md):
    design_context = Read({base_path}/.brainstorming/ui-designer/analysis.md)
```

### Phase 4: Unified Design System Synthesis (Claude)
This is a single-pass synthesis that replaces all external tool calls.

**Synthesis Prompt Template**:
```
Create a unified, production-ready design system by consolidating the following style variants.

SESSION: {session_id}
SELECTED VARIANTS: {variant_ids}

VARIANT DATA:
{FOR each variant IN selected_variants:
  ---
  Variant ID: {variant.id}
  Name: {variant.name}
  Description: {variant.description}
  Design Philosophy: {variant.design_philosophy}

  Proposed Tokens:
  {JSON.stringify(variant.proposed_tokens, null, 2)}
  ---
}

{IF design_context:
DESIGN CONTEXT (from brainstorming):
{design_context}
}

TASK: Consolidate these {selected_variants.length} style variant(s) into a single, cohesive design system.

CONSOLIDATION RULES:
1. **Merge Token Proposals**: Combine all `proposed_tokens` into one unified system
2. **Resolve Conflicts**: When variants disagree (e.g., different primary colors), choose the most appropriate value or create a balanced compromise
3. **Maintain Completeness**: Ensure all token categories are present (colors, typography, spacing, etc.)
4. **Semantic Naming**: Use clear, semantic names (e.g., "brand-primary" not "color-1")
5. **Accessibility**: Validate WCAG AA contrast ratios (4.5:1 text, 3:1 UI)
6. **OKLCH Format**: All colors must use oklch(L C H / A) format
7. **Design Philosophy**: Synthesize a unified philosophy statement from variant descriptions

OUTPUT: Generate the following files as JSON/Markdown:

```

## Error Handling
- **No style cards found**: Report error, suggest running `/workflow:ui-design:extract` first
- **Invalid variant IDs**: List available IDs, auto-select all if called from auto workflow
- **Parsing errors**: Retry with stricter format instructions
- **Validation warnings**: Report but continue (non-blocking)

## Key Improvements Over Previous Version

1. **Zero External Dependencies**: No `gemini-wrapper`, no `codex` - pure Claude
2. **Direct Token Merging**: Reads `proposed_tokens` from style cards directly
3. **Single-Pass Synthesis**: One comprehensive prompt generates all outputs
4. **Reproducible**: Deterministic structure with clear consolidation rules
5. **Streamlined**: `Load → Synthesize → Write` (3 steps vs 7+ previously)

## Integration Points
- **Input**: `style-cards.json` from `/workflow:ui-design:extract` (with `proposed_tokens`)
- **Output**: `design-tokens.json` for `/workflow:ui-design:generate`
- **Context**: Optional `synthesis-specification.md` or `ui-designer/analysis.md`
