| krow-paper-design | KROW Paper design file conventions covering design tokens, component patterns, screen structure, and naming rules. Use this when creating or updating screens in the Paper design tool, auditing designs for token compliance, building new flows, or restructuring existing frames. Ensures visual consistency across all Paper design files for the KROW staff and client apps. |
KROW Paper Design Conventions
This skill defines the design token system, component patterns, screen structure conventions, and workflow rules established for the KROW Design Revamp Paper file. All design work in Paper must follow these conventions.
When to Use This Skill
- Creating new screens or flows in Paper
- Updating existing frames to match the design system
- Auditing designs for token compliance
- Adding components (buttons, chips, inputs, badges, cards)
- Structuring shift detail pages, onboarding flows, or list screens
- Setting up navigation patterns (back buttons, bottom nav, CTAs)
- Reviewing Paper designs before handoff to development

5. Workflow Rules
Write Incrementally
Each write_html call should produce ONE visual group:
- A header, a card, a single list row, a button bar, a section
- Never batch an entire screen in one call
Review Checkpoints
After every 2-3 modifications, take a screenshot and evaluate:
- Spacing: Uneven gaps, cramped groups
- Typography: Hierarchy, readability, correct font/weight
- Contrast: Text legibility, element distinction
- Alignment: Vertical lanes, horizontal alignment
- Clipping: Content cut off at edges
- Token compliance: All values match design system tokens
Color Audit Process
When updating frames to match the design system:
- Get computed styles for all text, background, border elements
- Map old colors to design system tokens:
- Dark navy (
#0F4C81,#1A3A5C) -> Primary#0A39DF - Near-black (
#111827,#0F172A) -> Foreground#121826 - Gray variants (
#94A3B8,#64748B,#475569) -> Text Secondary#6A7382 - Green accents (
#20B486) -> Primary#0A39DF(for pay) or#059669(for status)
- Dark navy (
- Batch update using
update_styleswith multiple nodeIds per style change - Verify with screenshots
Structural Consistency
When creating matching screens (e.g., two shift detail views):
- Use identical section ordering
- Match section header styles (11px/700 uppercase
#6A7382) - Use same card/row component patterns
- Maintain consistent padding and gap values

7. Anti-Patterns
Colors
- Never use
#0F4C81,#1A3A5C(old navy) - use#0A39DF(Primary) - Never use
#111827,#0F172A- use#121826(Foreground) - Never use
#94A3B8,#64748B,#475569- use#6A7382(Text Secondary) - Never use
#20B486for pay rates - use#0A39DF(Primary) - Never use
#E2E8F0for card borders - use#D1D5DB(Border)
Components
- Never use pill radius (999px) for chips or badges - use 8px or 10px
- Never use gradient backgrounds on buttons
- Never mix font families within a role (headings = Inter Tight, body = Manrope)
- Never place back buttons at the bottom of frames - always after status bar
- Never hardcode CTA position - use
marginTop: autofor bottom pinning
Structure
- Never batch an entire screen in one
write_htmlcall - Never skip review checkpoints after 2-3 modifications
- Never create frames without following the naming convention
- Never use
justifyContent: space-betweenon artboards with many direct children - usemarginTop: autoon the CTA instead
Summary
The design file is the source of truth for visual direction. Every element must use the established tokens:
- Colors: 7 core tokens + semantic badge colors
- Typography: Inter Tight (headings) + Manrope (body), defined scale
- Spacing: 24px page padding, 16-24px section gaps, 40px bottom safe area
- Radii: 8px (chips/badges), 12px (cards/inputs), 14px (buttons/CTAs)
- Components: Buttons, chips (large/small), inputs, cards, badges, nav bars
- Structure: Status bar > Back > Content > Bottom CTA (pinned)
- Naming:
<app>-<section>-<number>-<name>
When in doubt, screenshot an existing screen and match its patterns exactly.
