Key Rules

• ALWAYS extract actual hex values from reference - don't guess
• MUST note shadows, borders, transitions
• ALWAYS save to docs/reference/frontend/design-system.md

Common Mistakes

• ❌ Guess colors without checking → ✅ Extract actual hex values
• ❌ Skip subtle details → ✅ Note shadows, borders, transitions
• ❌ Ignore responsive differences → ✅ Document mobile vs desktop
