Extract color palettes from images, websites, or designs. Identifies dominant colors, generates complementary schemes, and exports in multiple formats (HEX, RGB, HSL, Tailwind, CSS variables). Use when users need color schemes from images, brand colors, or design system palettes.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

2 rules. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈0

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 2

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    Run color harmony analysis to produce complementary, analogous, triadic, split-complementary, tetradic, and monochromatic schemes.

    line 27
  2. Very specific:

    Check accessibility: compute WCAG 2.1 contrast ratios for each text/background pairing and test against protanopia, deuteranopia, and …

    line 29

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Color Palette Extractor

Extract and generate accessible color palettes from images, websites, and designs.

Contents

  • references/output-template.md — full report structure for presenting a palette
  • references/export-formats.md — CSS, Tailwind, SCSS, JSON, iOS, Android snippets
  • references/color-theory.md — harmony schemes, accessibility, extraction best practices

Workflow

  1. Identify the source: image file (PNG, JPG, SVG), website URL, screenshot, design mockup, or an existing color code to build from.
  2. Extract colors.
    • From an image: analyze pixel data, identify dominant colors, group similar shades, calculate frequency, and sort by prominence.
    • From a website: fetch and parse the CSS, extract color values, and identify brand, accent, text, and background colors.
    • Cluster with K-means; extract 5-10 dominant colors. Ignore near-white and near-black unless significant.
  3. Build the primary palette (5-10 colors): most dominant color, 2-3 supporting colors, 1-2 accents, a background, and a text color. Generate an extended palette with tints, shades, tones, and 50-950 numeric scales. See references/color-theory.md.
  4. Run color harmony analysis to produce complementary, analogous, triadic, split-complementary, tetradic, and monochromatic schemes. See references/color-theory.md.
  5. Check accessibility: compute WCAG 2.1 contrast ratios for each text/background pairing and test against protanopia, deuteranopia, and tritanopia. Recommend accessible alternatives where a pairing fails. See references/color-theory.md.
  6. Format the report following references/output-template.md, and export to the requested formats using references/export-formats.md.

Output Requirements

Deliver palettes that have clear dominant colors, sufficient variations, semantic naming, harmony schemes, contrast ratios that pass accessibility checks, usage guidelines, and exports in multiple formats. Produce professional, accessible palettes ready for immediate use in design systems.

Example Triggers

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
