color-expert

Catalogue stub — full skill: meodai/skill.color-expert

Decision tree

1. Is the full skill already installed? Check whether the skill at this location still has a das: block:

   • Global: grep -q "^das:" ~/.agents/skills/color-expert/SKILL.md 2>/dev/null && echo "pointer" || echo "installed"
   • Project: grep -q "^das:" .agents/skills/color-expert/SKILL.md 2>/dev/null && echo "pointer" || echo "installed"
   • No das: block → full skill installed, invoke it and proceed
   • das: block present → go to step 2

2. Detect scope, then install:

   To detect scope:

   [ -e ~/.agents/skills/color-expert ] && echo "global" || echo "project"
   

   Global (installed with -g):

   npx skills add meodai/skill.color-expert --skill color-expert -g -y
   

   Project (installed without -g):

   npx skills add meodai/skill.color-expert --skill color-expert -y
   

   Claude Code: send either command as a chat message starting with ! to run it without leaving the conversation.

What it does

Brings 286K words of color science into design decisions. Covers perceptually uniform color spaces (OKLCH, OKLAB), palette generation algorithms, WCAG accessibility contrast, color naming conventions, pigment mixing theory, and the history of color in art and design. Ideal for building color systems, choosing palettes with correct contrast, or understanding why certain color combinations feel wrong.
