/reimagine-it extract
Parent: ../SKILL.md — the full Content-Derived Design engine. This sub-skill handles only the extraction surface — the honesty layer the whole method stands on.
The redesign is only as honest as its extraction. This verb emits exactly what the engine reads, as JSON, without generating anything: title, profile, density, derived palette, anchors, proper nouns, headings, dates, numbers, emails, links, and source hex colors. Every extracted fact exists in the source — property-tested against hostile and malformed input.
Usage
bashnpx reimagine-it extract -i page.html -o signals.json cat page.html | npx reimagine-it extract -o - # stdin → stdout npx reimagine-it extract -i page.html --full -o signals.json # + prose
Payload shape (default):
json{ "source": "page.html", "title": "…", "profile": "restaurant | saas | civic | …", "density": "sparse | medium | dense", "palette": { "ground": "…", "accent": "…", "muted": "…", "surface": "…", "ink": "…" }, "anchors": ["…"], "properNouns": ["…"], "headings": ["…"], "dates": ["…"], "numbers": ["…"], "emails": ["…"], "links": ["…"], "sourceHex": ["#6B3A2A"], "counts": { "paragraphs": 4, "listItems": 16 } }
--full adds paragraphs and items (the raw prose arrays).
Procedure
- Run it before any redesign when the user asks "what would you even use from this page?" — the JSON answers with the engine's actual inputs.
- To audit honesty: every
dates,numbers,emails, andlinksentry must be findable in the source. Nothing else is allowed to appear. - Use it for migration/research: the payload is a stable, typed summary of a page's content — no redesign attached.
Must not
- Add facts not present in the payload to any downstream summary
- Present the derived
paletteas colors the source declared — hex colors insourceHexwere in the source; the rest is derivation - Round or "clean up" extracted numbers and dates; they are quotes
