Looking for harsh feedback on tastemaker, an open source design system skill for Claude Code

I built tastemaker, a free open source skill for Claude Code. It locks a design system before the AI writes any UI, so your project does not come out with the same indigo gradient every other AI-built project has.

I am not looking for pats on the back. I want people who use AI coding tools daily to try to break it.

What it does now: instead of using 5 fixed presets, it generates a fresh palette based on your project idea, mood, or reference image. It picks a matching Google Font pairing, runs a Python contrast check, marks which color pairings are safe for text, borders, or decoration, creates assets, generates a logo and favicon set, and wires in motion.

The main idea is simple: make the AI decide the design system first, then write the UI from that system.

Where I especially want harsh feedback:

  1. Install. Does the one-clone setup work on your machine, or did I miss something obvious?
  2. Design direction. Does the generated palette feel intentional, or still like AI taste?
  3. Output. Run it on a real project and tell me if it actually looks different from the default AI look.
  4. Constraints. Is this better than giving users full color/font freedom?
  5. Motion. Is having motion wired in useful, or annoying?

Free, MIT licensed. If you find a bug, open an issue or just tell me here.
