## What it does

Kami is a constraint system for print documents, not a UI kit. The agent reads a fixed spec and writes self-contained HTML, which is then rendered to PDF with WeasyPrint or the browser's print dialog. The palette is narrow on purpose: parchment canvas `#f5f4ed`, a single ink-blue accent `#1B365D`, serif at weight `500` with no bold anywhere.

Six document types are covered: one-pager, long doc or white paper, letter, portfolio, resume and a 4–8 slide deck. Each ships in a Chinese and an English variant, picked from the language you write in. No slash command is involved — plain phrasing is enough to wake the skill up.

Chinese typography leans on TsangerJinKai02, which is free for personal projects but needs a paid license from tsanger.cn for commercial work. The English pair, Newsreader and Inter, sit under OFL. One gotcha worth knowing: give tag backgrounds a solid hex value, since `rgba()` triggers a double-rectangle rendering bug in WeasyPrint.
