The recorded run used an isolated demonstration workspace. Review the commands and file paths before approving operations in your own workspace.

What actually ran

The task was submitted through the Tokeny input box. An online model read the inputs and executed tools. This run covers the local sample task and its actual files. Results and checks are recorded below.

Results and verification

Input

  • product-brief.md: fictional product “Songshu Task Board” for teams of 3–10, with task lists, assignees, due dates, and CSV export.
  • Source brand color: #176B52.
  • Constraints: do not invent customer testimonials, sales figures, or third-party endorsements; write only inside the current workspace.

Processing

  1. Read product-brief.md, ENVIRONMENT.md, and the workspace manifest.
  2. Kept #176B52 as the primary color and added an amber accent, dark text, soft canvas, and border colors.
  3. Defined tokens for typography, spacing, icons, and button normal, hover, pressed, focus, and disabled states.
  4. Calculated text contrast with the WCAG relative-luminance formula and recorded the results in both the JSON and HTML guide.

Actual Results

Created:

  • brand-guide.html: Chinese visual guide covering color values and usage, measured contrast, type hierarchy, spacing, buttons, and icons.
  • tokens.json: structured brand tokens covering colors, typography, spacing, button states, icons, and contrast checks.
  • report.md and report.en.md: this verification record in Chinese and English.

Checks

  • Parsed tokens.json to verify valid JSON and required top-level sections.
  • Recomputed every contrast ratio with the same WCAG relative-luminance formula and compared it with the stored values.
  • Checked that the HTML contains lang="zh-CN", color values, the contrast table, :focus-visible, and button state examples.
  • Confirmed all four deliverables exist and are non-empty.

Limitations

  • No real-browser visual regression or assistive-technology test was run; this pass is static and formula-based.
  • Contrast results apply to the declared solid foreground/background pairs. Transparency, image backgrounds, and system font rendering must still be reviewed in the product implementation.
