Buoy

Catch design drift before it ships.

AI coding tools are fast—but they don't know your design system. They'll write #3b82f6 when you have --color-primary. They'll use padding: 17px when your spacing scale is multiples of 4.

Buoy watches for these issues and helps you fix them.

src/components/Button.tsx:24
  hardcoded-value: #3b82f6 → var(--color-primary) (92% match)

Code-first System Observability

Your shipped code is the design-system source of truth. Declare the packages you own, then use Buoy to map adoption, unmanaged UI surface area, and the blast radius of a component or token change. Figma and other design tools can remain optional inputs; they are not required for the system map.

# .buoy.yaml
project:
  name: acme

system:
  components:
    - packages/ui/src/**
  tokens:
    - packages/tokens/src/**
  owners:
    - name: Checkout
      paths:
        - apps/checkout/**

buoy system map                 # Canonical system vs unmanaged surface area
buoy system impact Button       # Consumers and migration risk for a change
buoy system impact color-primary --kind token

This is the foundation for cloud adoption trends, deprecation planning, and AI-assisted iteration reporting: every result is derived from code and can be attributed to a repository path and owner.

Quick Start

# See your design system immediately (zero config)
npx ahoybuoy show all

# Add project configuration and local integrations when ready
npx ahoybuoy dock

No config needed. Buoy auto-detects your framework and starts working immediately.

What It Catches

Issue	Example
Hardcoded colors	`#ff0000` instead of `var(--color-primary)`
Arbitrary spacing	`padding: 17px` instead of design scale
Tailwind escape hatches	`p-[13px]` instead of `p-4`
Naming inconsistencies	`ButtonNew`, `ButtonV2`, `ButtonOld`
Unused components	Defined but never imported or rendered
Semantic mismatches	Same prop typed `string` in one, `number` in another
Repeated patterns	Same Tailwind classes copy-pasted 5+ times
Framework sprawl	React + Vue + jQuery in same codebase
Detached components	Instances without main component
