Emblematic

Use this to explore what the index contains: without `value` it lists the values of a facet with counts (e.g. every font family, every style tag); with `value` it lists the sites that have it. Facets: font, color (hue bucket or "neutral"), style (derived tags), stack (framework/CMS/host), scheme, hero (hero layout), accent_strategy. Not for multi-criteria queries (use search_designs).

Use this when the user wants a direction that mixes references ("Linear's colors with Stripe's type"), or a ready-to-save brief from one site. Returns a markdown brief with exact values (role colors and site tokens, font stacks, type styles, radii, spacing, shadows, motion), caveats and source links. Deterministic: values are copied from the specs, nothing is invented. By default the 1st site gives color, the 2nd type, the 3rd layout; override with color_from/type_from/layout_from. Save the result to disk before implementing. Not for a single site's raw values (use get_design or get_design_md).

Use this when the user likes one site and wants alternatives or neighbours: "more like Linear", "sites with Stripe's typography". Ranks indexed sites by an explainable distance on palette, type or layout (or the mean, "overall") and says why each is close. Not for free-text search (use search_designs).

Use this when you need the actual design values of one indexed site to build or restyle UI. Default returns the compact card (role colors with the site's own CSS variable names, fonts, type sizes, radius, container, caveats, links). Request more with `sections` (color, type, space, shape, depth, layout, motion, components, sections, stack, provenance) or "full" for the raw spec.json (large: ~15–20 KB). Not for search (use search_designs) or for a file to save in the project (use get_design_md).

Use this when you will implement from a site's design: returns the file to save into the project verbatim. format "design.md" (default) is a DESIGN.md (YAML tokens + prose, google/design.md format); "tokens.css" is CSS custom properties; "tailwind" is a Tailwind v4 @theme block. Save the text to disk unchanged and work from the saved file. Not for answering questions about a site (use get_site or get_design).

Use this to answer "what font/colors/framework does <site> use?" for one site. Returns brand name, fonts with roles and weights, role colors, hues, detected stack (framework, CMS, hosting) and capture date. If the site is not indexed it says so (found: false) with the closest indexed sites. Not for building UI from the spec (use get_design).

Use this when the user wants design references: "dark dev-tool sites", "sites using Söhne", "a warm serif editorial look", "something with #5E6AD2". Matches brand, font, style tags, hue/hex, stack and description across the Emblematic index and returns small cards (scheme, key colors, fonts, radius, one-line summary). All filters are optional and combine with AND. Not for fetching one known site (use get_design) or listing facet values (use browse_by).
