Short answer

Can my AI check if my UI follows my design system?

Yes. Your AI uses the prove_design tool to scan layouts for spacing, typography, and hierarchy errors. You get a list of specific rule violations to fix.

The results.

Where every issue lands.

The AI categorizes its findings so you can triage them quickly.

SPACING

Layout and padding errors

The AI flags elements that break your grid or padding rules. You get the exact pixel deviations.

TYPE

Typography rule breaks

It identifies font weights, sizes, or line heights that don't match your defined styles.

HIERARCHY

Visual weight issues

The AI detects when elements lack the proper prominence or logical order based on your rules.

HUMAN

Creative decisions

The AI leaves brand feeling and creative intent to you. It only flags hard rule violations.

The workflow

What your AI does when the design arrives.

The AI acts as a technical auditor for your visual rules.

  1. Analyze rules

    Your AI reads your design system constraints to understand what a correct layout looks like.

    prove_design

  2. Scan elements

    The agent inspects the provided design file to check every component against those constraints.

    prove_design

  3. Identify violations

    It isolates specific instances where spacing or type rules are ignored.

    prove_design

  4. Report errors

    The AI presents a list of errors for you to review and fix in your design tool.

    prove_design

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI fix the design for me?

    No. The AI only identifies and reports violations. You must make the actual changes in your design software.

  • 02

    Does it work with any design tool?

    It works with any design file you can provide a link or data for that the prove_design tool can process.

  • 03

    Will it delete my design files?

    No. The AI only reads the design data to perform the audit. It has no permission to modify or delete your files.

  • 04

    How does it know my specific brand rules?

    You must provide your design system rules in the prompt or as part of the context so the AI has a baseline to check against.

  • 05

    Can it judge if a design looks 'good'?

    No. It only checks for adherence to strict rules like spacing, type, and hierarchy. It doesn't have an opinion on aesthetics.
