telerik KendoReact — Style Assistant
How to Apply Generated CSS Variables
After calling the tool, apply the generated CSS variables using one of the methods described in application-methods.md.
This skill owns the progressive disclosure decision for theme support files. Read application-methods.md for every theming-focused use so downstream guidance can include the application method. Do not read unrelated component, layout, icon, validation, or accessibility files from this skill.
Calling the Style Assistant
Use the kendo_style_assistant MCP tool to generate CSS variables for a custom Kendo theme based on a natural language description.
Preserve user-specified theme requirements exactly in the tool query. If the user provides colors, brand guidelines, or theme constraints, copy them verbatim into query, including hex values, RGB/RGBA/HSL values, CSS variable names and values, named roles such as primary/accent/success/error, theme mode, contrast requirements, density, mood, typography notes, and palette constraints. Do not paraphrase or normalize exact color requirements before calling the tool.
Tool call:
kendo_style_assistant({
query="<Natural language description of the desired visual style or theme>"
})
Examples:
kendo_style_assistant({
query="Create a modern dark theme with high contrast and blue accents."
})
kendo_style_assistant({
query="Apply our brand colors: primary #2563EB (blue), success #16A34A (green), error #DC2626 (red). Use a clean, minimal light theme."
})
kendo_style_assistant({
query="Create a warm, earthy theme with orange as the primary color and a neutral background."
})
After Retrieval
The tool returns CSS variable declarations. Apply them using one of the four methods in application-methods.md. Method 1 (Global CSS) is recommended for most cases.
