Primitiv
The design system contract keeping teams and agents in sync.
Retrieval gives you data. Reconciliation gives you truth.
The problem
Design-system knowledge is spread across code, Figma, Storybook, and documentation. When those sources drift, people reconcile the differences through experience; AI coding agents often fall back to generic patterns that work but do not belong in the product.
Primitiv gives every agent the same current design context through a machine-readable contract and a read-only MCP interface. It helps agents reuse what exists, follow established decisions, and surface inconsistencies before they ship.
Primitiv runs locally. Your code never leaves your machine.
Quick start
Run these commands from your project root:
npx @ai-by-design/primitiv init
npx @ai-by-design/primitiv build
npx @ai-by-design/primitiv serveinit sets up Primitiv for the current project, build creates its design contract, and serve makes that contract available to MCP-compatible agents.
See the Primitiv documentation for installation, configuration, commands, and integration guides.
