Alps keycaps: what to focus on
Alps/Matias switches require Alps-mount keycaps. Avoid MX-only profiles.
Legacy mount
Alps-mount keycaps are different from MX. Always specify the mount type.
Classic styling
Alps sets often look best with simple legends and restrained colorways.
Legend readability
Use bold, high-contrast legends to keep renders clean.

Compatibility table
Compare Alps with MX/Choc/Topre mounts.
| Switch / stem | Compatibility | Typical | Prompt tip | Actions |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MX stem (Cherry MX & clones) | Fits most modern keycap sets | Cross-shaped stem used by most mechanical keyboards. | Mention “MX stem” + keep legends clean and high-contrast. | |
| Kailh Choc (low-profile) | Requires Choc-compatible keycaps | Low-profile switches with a different stem standard. | Prompt “low-profile keycaps” and avoid tall sculpted profiles. | |
| Topre | Requires Topre-mount keycaps (not MX by default) | Electrocapacitive boards (e.g. HHKB, Realforce) use Topre mount. | Prompt “Topre mount keycaps” and keep the set minimal for clarity. | |
| Alps | Requires Alps-mount keycaps | Vintage/legacy stem standard (Alps/Matias ecosystem). | Prompt “Alps stem keycaps” and use simple legends to reduce artifacts. |
Prompt pack
