What problem does it solve?
This skill enforces a nine-pass UX design pipeline to ensure robust UI foundations before visuals, reducing the risk of "pretty but unusable" interfaces.
The nine passes guide from mental model and information architecture through affordances, cognitive load, state design, flow integrity, accessibility, responsive strategy, and motion, ensuring that every design decision is justified and traceable.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Structured nine-pass workflow covering Pass 1 through Pass 9, with artifacts produced at each stage.
- Artifact generation and handoff to frontend design (PRD.md, UX-spec.md, audit reports, a11y reports, motion specs, tokens, and component patterns).
- Reuse and auditing: can be used for new features or to audit and improve existing UIs, improving clarity, accessibility, and responsiveness.
Quick Start
- Use the /design command to start a full design pipeline for a new UI concept, e.g., "revamp analytics dashboard".
- If you already have a rough idea or PRD, provide it as input and let the pipeline generate the downstream UX and frontend-ready specs.
