And yet someone complained about *not* having them at bug 47698 (see also bug
55554, where this was brought up again and the colors were added to
non-Vector), because the alternative was gray.
Bear in mind that "no MW UI styles" at all may not always do what you want.
For example Special:UserLogin has a "Join $SITENAME" button. However, it's
really just a styled link, so if it's completely unstyled it will look like a
link.
So rather than debate between "no MW UI styles" and "current MW UI styles" for
e.g. FooSkin, I'd rather support people who want to make appropriate styles for
FooSkin (unless there's a broad consensus that FooSkin should have either "no
MW UI styles" or "current MW UI styles"; honestly not many people have voiced
opinion on which of the three).

The basic tool is
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgResourceModuleSkinStyles , along with
the discussion above about whether you're augmenting or replacing styles (that
is important re what I said about 'default').
Importantly, there are also mixins at
https://git.wikimedia.org/tree/mediawiki%2Fcore.git/e2e6f7767ef58659904422c36d390c230b59852f/resources%2Fsrc%2Fmediawiki.less
which you can use (note the mediawiki.less/mediawiki.ui directory, which has
mixins and variables). These can be imported with e.g.:
@import "mediawiki.ui/variables";
