What problem does it solve?
Frontend work often starts with components before deciding where the feature lives, which leads to bloated navigation, inconsistent styling, and untested UI states. This Skill enforces a four-gate workflow so every Console frontend change has a defined entry point, design-token compliance, size discipline, and visual proof before delivery.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Product Gate: Classifies new capabilities into entry levels (Activity Bar, /settings, settings sub-tabs, standalone routes) and requires a state matrix covering loading, empty, error, and permission states.
- Design-System Gate: Enforces token-first styling by reusing existing CSS variables and component primitives instead of hardcoded visual values.
- Implementation & Verification Gates: Triggers split reviews at 200/350 lines, separates display values from submitted secrets, and demands golden-path plus non-happy-path evidence including modal and dark-mode checks.
- Use Case: When migrating a settings section or adding a new Console page, run through the four gates to produce frontend code with documented entry rationale, state coverage, and browser-verified proof.
Quick Start
Use the console-dev skill to plan and implement a new settings page for the Console, walking through the Product, Design-System, Implementation, and Verification gates.
