AI design tool validator catches documentation errors

The author developed a drift checker to ensure AI tools adhere to design system rules, initially finding 122 errors, mostly due to parser inaccuracies. After fixing the parser, three critical errors remained in the `llms.txt` file, indicating that AI tools were learning incorrect information about the design system. To address the limitations of static documentation, an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server was built, enabling AI to query live tools instead of just reading text, thereby enforcing rules more effectively. AI

IMPACT This tool could improve the reliability of AI-generated code by ensuring it conforms to established design standards.

    AI + Design #1: The Validator Caught My Own Docs Lying

    <p>The first full run of my new drift checker printed 122 errors against my own design system.</p> <p>About 119 of them were my parser's fault — it didn't know that "Select.Trigger" in the docs and <code>SelectTrigger</code> in the code are the same thing, that kind of noise. I f…
