Target Reference Server

Onsystem Overview

The onsystem MCP server keeps coding agents aligned with a React design-system package by reading components, variants, parts, and tokens from the codebase. It checks TSX and JSX, reports rule IDs, locations, and fixes, and can catch invented components, unsupported props, invalid variants, and hardcoded styles. Run it locally from an app or monorepo, or use its checks in pull-request workflows when agent-generated UI needs design-system validation.
