What problem does it solve?
The skill ensures problem comprehension before generation by constructing a structured design brief that frames divergent exploration and prevents jumping straight to outputs when users request ideas, directions, or possibilities. It intercepts requests at the main agent level to produce a clear design brief before delegating to the design subagent.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Builds an internal model of a component (function, content model, interaction, visual structure, context) to ground exploration.
- Identifies hard constraints, soft constraints, and degrees of freedom to map the space for variation.
- Selects 2–3 meaningful variation axes across Structural, Content/Semantic, Conceptual, Behavioral, and Aesthetic categories.
- Composes a structured design brief with explicit variation hypotheses and rationale to guide downstream agents.
- Delegates the brief to the design subagent for generation while preserving comprehension and guardrails.
Quick Start
Provide a complete design brief that analyzes the selected component and outlines 2–3 distinct design variation hypotheses.
