design-token/animation

Summary

Enforces animation values to match the animation tokens loaded into the DSR kernel.

Configuration

Enable the rule in designlint.config.*:

{ "rules": { "design-token/animation": "error" } }

Tokens are not configured inline. Seed the DSR kernel from a DTIF catalog that includes string-type tokens under an animations group:

{
  "$version": "1.0.0",
  "animations": {
    "spin": { "$type": "string", "$value": "spin 1s linear infinite" },
    "wiggle": { "$type": "string", "$ref": "#/animations/spin" }
  }
}

design-lint kernel start --config-path designlint.config.json

Options

No additional options.

This rule is not auto-fixable.

Values containing var( (CSS variable references) are always allowed and not checked.

Examples

Invalid

.box { animation: wiggle 2s ease-in-out; }

Valid

.box { animation: spin 1s linear infinite; }

When Not To Use

If your project does not enforce animation tokens, disable this rule.
