The design contract layer for your agents.

Primitiv is a design contract layer for AI agents. It scans design sources like Figma, codebase, Storybook, and token files, reconciles conflicts between them, and exposes a single machine-readable contract via MCP. Agents connect to get authoritative answers before building UI, ensuring consistency and reducing drift.

    Contract-based design is more rigorous than prompt-based behavior specification.

    Good for teams building AI products where behavioral consistency is critical.
