SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill ensures the agent performs problem comprehension before generation when handling divergent design exploration requests. It analyzes what a component does, what constrains it, and what is meaningfully free to vary, then composes a structured design brief to pass to the design subagent. It prevents skipping straight from "user asked for variations" to output and guarantees a formal brief exists to guide multiple design hypotheses.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Problem comprehension before generation: analyze function, constraints, and degrees of freedom to inform variation.
  • Structured design brief: produce a detailed document covering component analysis, constraints, chosen variation axes, and concrete variation specifications.
  • Delegation to design subagent: pass the brief along with source context to enable generation of distinct design hypotheses.

Quick Start

Provide the target component context and user prompt to generate a structured design brief before proposing variations.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate design variations without skipping problem comprehension?

A design brief for divergent exploration must cover component analysis, hard and soft constraints, chosen variation axes, and concrete variation specifications to guide generation.

What's the best way to structure a design brief for multiple directions?

A design brief for divergent exploration must cover component analysis, hard and soft constraints, chosen variation axes, and concrete variation specifications to guide generation.

How do I intercept user requests for design ideas to ensure formal analysis?

Provide target component context and the user prompt to the skill, which then generates a structured design brief before delegating to the design subagent for distinct hypotheses.

When do I need a structured design brief for UX exploration?

The skill ensures formal problem comprehension before generation by passing the brief and source context to a design subagent, enabling the production of distinct design hypotheses.

How do I delegate to a design subagent for distinct design hypotheses?

The skill ensures formal problem comprehension before generation by passing the brief and source context to a design subagent, enabling the production of distinct design hypotheses.
