4  goal: |
5    Systematically update CSS styles across all Webflow breakpoints (desktop, tablet, mobile landscape, mobile portrait) for specified elements and style classes. Ensure responsive design consistency while allowing breakpoint-specific customizations. All changes should maintain visual hierarchy, improve mobile experience, and follow responsive design best practices.
6  prerequisites:
7    - Webflow MCP server must be properly configured and authenticated
8    - Webflow Designer must be open with the MCP Companion App active
9    - User must have edit permissions for the target site
10    - Understanding of Webflow's breakpoint system (main, medium, small, tiny)
11task:
12  - Discover and select the target Webflow site.
13  - Identify target elements or style classes to update.
14  - Review current styles across all breakpoints for selected elements.
15  - Analyze responsive behavior and identify inconsistencies or improvements.
16  - Define style changes for each breakpoint based on user requirements.
17  - Present a comprehensive proposal with visual breakpoint comparison.
18  - Upon approval, systematically apply styles across specified breakpoints.
19  - Verify changes across all breakpoints.
20  - Provide detailed report of all changes made with breakpoint-by-breakpoint summary.

How it works

1

Discovery

Use sites_list to let the user select a site.

2

Requirements Gathering

Ask user to specify:

  • Target style classes or elements
  • Breakpoints to modify (main, medium, small, tiny)
  • Style properties to update
  • Desired responsive behavior
3

Designer Connection Check

Verify Webflow Designer with MCP Companion App is open and responsive.

4

Current State Analysis

  • Use style_tool with get_styles action
  • Set include_all_breakpoints: true and skip_properties: false
  • Document current values at each breakpoint
5

Responsive Analysis

Compare style values across breakpoints and identify:

  • Missing breakpoint overrides
  • Inconsistent scaling
  • Responsive design improvements
6

Proposal Creation

Create detailed proposal with:

  • Breakpoint comparison table
  • Visual impact assessment
  • Responsive design rationale
  • Risk assessment for cascade effects
7

User Approval

Present the proposal and wait for approval.

8

Implementation

Apply changes breakpoint by breakpoint using style_tool with update_style:

  • Start with main (desktop) breakpoint
  • Progress to medium (tablet)
  • Then small (mobile landscape)
  • Finally tiny (mobile portrait)
  • Use longhand CSS properties only
9

Verification

Use style_tool with get_styles to verify all updated values across breakpoints.

10

Reporting

Provide comprehensive report with:

  • Executive summary
  • Breakpoint-by-breakpoint changelog
  • Responsive preview checklist
  • Testing recommendations

Breakpoint reference

Main (Desktop)

Viewport: 992px and above API ID: main Use case: Desktop and large tablet landscape Best practices: Generous spacing, multi-column layouts, hover states

Medium (Tablet)

Viewport: 768px to 991px API ID: medium Use case: Tablet portrait and small desktop Best practices: Simplified layouts, reduced spacing, touch-friendly

Small (Mobile Landscape)

Viewport: 480px to 767px API ID: small Use case: Large mobile phones in landscape Best practices: 1-2 columns, increased touch targets

Tiny (Mobile Portrait)

Viewport: 479px and below API ID: tiny Use case: Mobile phones in portrait Best practices: Single column, maximum touch targets, 16px min text

Best practices

  • Main: 16-18px base font size
  • Medium: 16px base font size
  • Small/Tiny: 16px minimum (prevents iOS zoom on input focus)
  • Scale headings proportionally across breakpoints
  • Maintain readable line-height (1.5-1.6) on all devices
  • Main: Full spacing (e.g., 64px section padding)
  • Medium: 75-80% of desktop (e.g., 48px)
  • Small: 50-60% of desktop (e.g., 32px)
  • Tiny: 40-50% of desktop (e.g., 24px)
  • Maintain consistent spacing ratios within each breakpoint
  • Main: Multi-column grids, flexbox with wrap
  • Medium: 2-3 columns, simplified navigation
  • Small: 1-2 columns, hamburger menu
  • Tiny: Single column, stacked layout
  • Main: 40px minimum height for buttons
  • Medium/Small/Tiny: 44px minimum height (WCAG recommendation)
  • Increase padding on mobile for easier tapping
  • Ensure adequate spacing between clickable elements
