# Style Consolidation Command

## Overview
Consolidate user-selected style variants into unified or separate production-ready design systems using Claude's native synthesis capabilities. Merges token proposals from multiple style cards into cohesive design language(s).

## 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(s) with documentation
- **Dual Mode**: Unified (1 merged system) or Separate (N independent systems)

## Execution Protocol

### Phase 1: Path Resolution & Variant Loading

```bash
# Determine base path
IF --base-path provided:
    base_path = {provided_base_path}
ELSE IF --session provided:
    base_path = ".workflow/WFS-{session}/latest/.design"
ELSE:
    base_path = find_latest_design_session(".workflow/.scratchpad/")

# Verify extraction output exists
style_cards_path = "{base_path}/style-extraction/style-cards.json"
VERIFY: exists(style_cards_path)

# Load style cards
style_cards = Read(style_cards_path)
total_variants = len(style_cards.style_cards)
```

### Phase 2: Variant Selection & Mode Determination

```bash
# Determine how many variants to consolidate
IF --variants provided:
    variants_count = {provided_count}
    VALIDATE: 1 <= variants_count <= total_variants
ELSE:
    variants_count = total_variants

# Select first N variants
selected_variants = style_cards.style_cards[0:variants_count]
VERIFY: selected_variants.length > 0

# Determine consolidation mode
IF --keep-separate provided:
    consolidation_mode = "separate"  # Generate N independent design systems
    REPORT: "Mode: Separate - generating {variants_count} independent design systems"
ELSE:
    consolidation_mode = "unified"   # Merge into 1 design system
    REPORT: "Mode: Unified - merging {variants_count} variants into one design system"
```

### 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: Design System Synthesis (Claude)

**Route based on consolidation_mode**:

#### Mode A: Unified Consolidation (Default)

Merges all style variants into a single, cohesive design system.

**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, 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:

FILE 1: design-tokens.json
{
  "colors": {
    "brand": { "primary": "oklch(...)", "secondary": "oklch(...)", "accent": "oklch(...)" },

#### Mode B: Separate Consolidation (--keep-separate)

Generates N independent design systems, each refining one style variant into a complete production-ready system.

**For each variant, use this Synthesis Prompt Template**:
```
Create a production-ready design system for the following style variant.

SESSION: {session_id}
VARIANT: {variant.id}

VARIANT DATA:
  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: Refine this style variant into a complete, production-ready design system.

REFINEMENT RULES:
1. **Complete Token Coverage**: Ensure all categories are present (colors, typography, spacing, etc.)
2. **Fill Gaps**: If any tokens are missing, generate appropriate values based on the variant's philosophy
3. **Maintain Style Identity**: Preserve the unique characteristics of this variant
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**: Expand and articulate the variant's design philosophy

OUTPUT: Generate the same 4 files as unified mode (design-tokens.json, style-guide.md, tailwind.config.js, validation-report.json)

RESPONSE FORMAT:
Provide each file's content in clearly labeled sections:

===== design-tokens.json =====
{JSON content}

===== style-guide.md =====
{Markdown content}

===== tailwind.config.js =====
{JavaScript content}

===== validation-report.json =====
{JSON content}
```

**Output Location**: `{base_path}/style-consolidation/style-{n}/`

### Phase 5: Parse & Write Output Files

#### Unified Mode Output
```bash
# Parse Claude's response
CREATE: {base_path}/style-consolidation/
parsed_output = parse_claude_response(claude_response)

Write({base_path}/style-consolidation/design-tokens.json, parsed_output.design_tokens)

```bash
# Parse each variant's response
FOR variant_id IN range(1, variants_count + 1):
    CREATE: {base_path}/style-consolidation/style-{variant_id}/
    parsed_output = parse_claude_response(claude_responses[variant_id - 1])

    Write({base_path}/style-consolidation/style-{variant_id}/design-tokens.json, parsed_output.design_tokens)
    Write({base_path}/style-consolidation/style-{variant_id}/style-guide.md, parsed_output.style_guide)

## Error Handling

- **No style cards found**: Report error, suggest running `/workflow:ui-design:extract` first
- **Invalid variant count**: List available count, auto-select all if called from auto workflow
- **Parsing errors**: Retry with stricter format instructions
- **Validation warnings**: Report but continue (non-blocking)
- **Missing categories**: Claude will fill gaps based on design philosophy

## Key Features

1. **Zero External Dependencies**
   - No `gemini-wrapper`, no `codex` - pure Claude synthesis
   - Single-pass comprehensive prompt generates all outputs

2. **Dual Consolidation Modes**
   - Unified: Merge N variants → 1 design system (default)
   - Separate: Refine N variants → N independent systems (--keep-separate)

3. **Direct Token Merging**
   - Reads `proposed_tokens` from style cards directly
   - Intelligent conflict resolution with clear rules

4. **Complete Design System Output**
   - design-tokens.json (CSS tokens)
   - style-guide.md (documentation)
   - tailwind.config.js (framework integration)
   - validation-report.json (quality audit)

5. **Production-Ready Quality**
   - WCAG AA accessibility validation
   - OKLCH color format for perceptual uniformity
   - Semantic token naming
   - Complete token coverage

6. **Streamlined Workflow**
   - `Load → Synthesize → Write` (3 core steps)
   - Reproducible with deterministic structure
   - Context-aware (integrates brainstorming artifacts)

## Integration Points

- **Input**: `style-cards.json` from `/workflow:ui-design:extract` (with `proposed_tokens`)
- **Output**:
  - Unified: `style-consolidation/design-tokens.json` for `/workflow:ui-design:generate`
  - Separate: `style-consolidation/style-{n}/design-tokens.json` for matrix mode generation
- **Context**: Optional `synthesis-specification.md` or `ui-designer/analysis.md`
- **Auto Integration**: Automatically triggered by `/workflow:ui-design:auto` workflow
