ek-craft

ek-design

Eric Kazmaier's personal cyberpunk brand stack. Composable Claude Code plugin marketplace inheriting architecture from ejkaz/parspec-design; brand tokens completely replaced with a Neo-Tokyo neon register tuned for agentic UI surfaces.

First consumer: cepsra (cepsr.app).

What's in this repo

Plugin	State	Job
ek-design	v0.1.0 shipped	Maintains design-model.yaml — the single brand SSoT. Versioned via YAML frontmatter + git tags; rollback is one command.
ek-web	backlog	Exports tokens to Tailwind config / shadcn theme / flat CSS vars. v0.2 target.
ek-craft	backlog	Lints .tsx/.css against brand rules. Data-driven from yaml. v0.3 target.
ek-review	backlog	4-juror design jury (composition, contrast, brand-fidelity, anti-slop) on rendered web UI screenshots. v0.4 target.

The design-model.yaml is the contract. Brand evolution = yaml diff + git tag. Downstream skills auto-adapt as they ship.

Install

# Local-file marketplace (before pushing to GitHub):
/plugin marketplace add file:///Users/eric/Desktop/Parspec.b/Vault/005_The_Lab/5.3_Automation_&_Scripts/ek-design

# After GitHub push:
/plugin marketplace add ejkaz/ek-design

# Then:
/plugin install ek-design@ek-design

Locked primary axis

The immovable anchors. Any palette evolution may change tints / atmospheric secondaries / motifs — but never these:

Token	Hex	Role
Background	#0A0A14	Default surface — deep blue-black Tokyo night
Panel	#15151F	Layered surface
Off-white	#F0F0F5	Inverted (light-mode opt-in)
White	#FFFFFF	Text on dark
Magenta CTA	#FF2A6D	Primary CTA monopoly
Cyan Secondary	#00D1FF	Secondary action / info / link
Lime Alive	#A6FF00	Success state + agent active indicator
Display	Chakra Petch	Headers, eyebrows
Body	Inter	UI body
Mono	JetBrains Mono	Code, IDs, timestamps — required for agentic UI

Signature motifs: neon edge glow (CSS box-shadow), terminal-block insets (mono content on cyan-bordered black), scanline overlays (optional, reduced-motion-safe), katakana-numeric agent IDs.

How to evolve the brand

1. Edit plugins/ek-design/skills/ek-design/design-model.yaml
2. Bump meta.version and meta.brand_version; set meta.supersedes
3. Update primitives.*, roles.*, tokens.*, avoid: list
4. Commit + tag:

   git tag -a brand-ek-2026-Q4-v1 -m "Q4 evolution: <rationale>"
   git push origin main brand-ek-2026-Q4-v1
   

5. Run /plugin update — downstream skills (when they ship) pick up new tokens automatically

How to roll back

git checkout brand-ek-2026-Q3-v1 -- plugins/ek-design/skills/ek-design/design-model.yaml

Brand version history

Tag	Date	Notes
brand-ek-2026-Q3-v1	2026-05-24	v0.1.0 founding — Neo-Tokyo neon palette ratified. Magenta CTA #FF2A6D, cyan #00D1FF, lime #A6FF00 on #0A0A14. Chakra Petch + Inter + JetBrains Mono. 7 invariants.

Architecturally forked from ejkaz/parspec-design — composable-plugin pattern, yaml-frontmatter versioning, data-driven invariants. Parspec brand tokens were completely replaced; only the architecture carries over. Both repos remain independent; improvements propagate via pattern, not code-sharing.
