AINDF Overview

The AINDF MCP server connects an AI agent to a bundled design system and exposes its defined components, slots, modifiers, and presets. Agents can use these lookups to author screen configurations pinned to a specific design-system version, then call screen validation to reject unsupported properties or values. Build the bundle from seven design-system sources, configure the server as a stdio MCP process, and reach for it when generated screens must stay within an existing design system.
