Standardize design tokens across VS Code Copilot

The `convert_color` tool standardizes your team's design tokens across VS Code Copilot. By adding this server to your repository's config, every developer using the editor gets access to the exact same toolset. The tool ensures that your shared workspace generates identical HEX, HSL, and CMYK values. No more slightly off-brand colors slipping into your production commits.

Automate contrast checks in your editor

Instant accessibility verification is powered by the `convert_color` tool within your workspace. The engine provides instant luminance and light/dark detection to your coding agent. Your agent uses these metrics to verify text readability before writing UI code. It catches contrast issues early, saving your team from fixing accessibility bugs later.

Translate legacy color systems instantly

The `convert_color` tool translates raw CMYK, RGB, or named colors into clean, modern formats. It processes multiple representations simultaneously so you never have to make multiple utility calls. VS Code Copilot reads these conversions to rewrite your stylesheets automatically. It speeds up refactoring work while maintaining absolute precision across thousands of lines of code.
