| What it does | Reuse lichess/lila code and assets when implementing or refining pychess-variants features to match lichess look and feel. Use when tasks involve UI parity, behavior parity, borrowing styles/icons/components, or checking how lichess implemented a feature. This skill defines a minimal reuse workflow. Do not use it to run local lila processes; use a local-server workflow when runtime comparison is required. | Use when an app uses @pierre/highlights to generate syntax-highlighted HTML or tokens, stream code, incrementally tokenize edits, or apply Zed-compatible themes and CSS variables. |
