Generate Brand Color Palettes
Create cohesive color palettes for brand identities, websites, and design systems — from a seed color or a descriptive prompt.
Get Color Information and Names
Look up detailed information about any color — name, hex, RGB, HSL, CMYK values, and complementary colors — for design and development use.
Quick answer: Use the Color Tools tool through ToolRouter to get color information and names directly from Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and OpenClaw — connect once, then drive it with plain-language prompts. No code required.
ToolWorking across design tools, development environments, and print production constantly requires translating colors between formats — hex to RGB for CSS, RGB to CMYK for print, or just figuring out what a color is called so you can reference it consistently in design documentation.
Color Tools' color_info and name_colors skills provide complete color information in one step — converting between all color models, returning the closest named color, showing complementary and analogous relationships, and giving you everything you need to specify the color accurately in any context.
Developers who need CSS-ready color values, designers working across digital and print who need CMYK conversions, teams trying to name and standardize their color system, and anyone who has ever copied a hex code from a screenshot and needed to know what it actually is use this to get complete color information without tab-switching between converter tools.

Claude is the right partner for color information lookups when you want to understand the color relationships — what the complement is, where it sits on the color wheel, and whether there are other colors in the same family that might serve your design better.
How to get color information and names
Once connected (see setup above), use the Color Tools tool — the same steps work with Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, OpenClaw, and any MCP client:
- Provide the color value in any format — hex, RGB, or HSL — and describe what you need to know about it.
- Run color-tools with color_info and name_colors for the target color.
- Ask Claude to explain the color's relationships — complement, analogous neighbors, and which combinations would create the visual tension or harmony you are after.
- Use the information to inform color pairing decisions or convert to the format needed for the project.
Example prompt
Try this with the Color Tools tool
Use color-tools to get full information on #FF6B35 — name, all format conversions (hex, RGB, HSL, CMYK), complementary color, and three analogous colors. Tell me what mood this color creates and what type of brand identity it would suit well.
Tips
- Ask Claude to explain the color's emotional associations alongside the technical values — both are useful for design decisions.
- Get the CMYK values whenever you are doing anything that might go to print — digital hex codes do not translate directly.
- Ask for the color name as well as the hex — named colors are easier to reference in documentation and discussion.
