SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill standardizes the process of handing off design artifacts between different stages and agents, ensuring clarity, consistency, and quality throughout the design lifecycle.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Artifact Format Standards: Defines precise structures for research briefs, information architecture, wireframes, UX specs, UI designs, and test reports.
  • Lifecycle State Management: Tracks project progress through defined phases with status updates, quality gates, and retry logic.
  • Inter-Agent Communication: Establishes clear protocols for context passing and reporting between AI agents.
  • Use Case: When transitioning from UX design to UI design, this Skill ensures all necessary artifacts are delivered in the correct format, reviewed according to defined criteria, and that the next agent receives complete context.

Quick Start

Use the design-handoff skill to manage the lifecycle state of a project, updating the current phase to 'UI Design' and marking the 'UX Specification' as completed.

FAQPage Schema
How do I standardize design handoff artifacts between UX and UI phases?

Design handoff protocols standardize transitions by enforcing structured formats for wireframes and UX specs. This ensures deliverables are reviewed against defined criteria before passing complete context to the next agent.

What is lifecycle state management for design projects?

Lifecycle state management tracks design progress through defined phases using status updates and quality gates. It enforces consistency by applying review verdicts and retry logic before advancing project phases.

How do AI agents communicate context during a design handoff?

Inter-agent communication during handoff uses established protocols for context passing and reporting. This coordinates AI agents by defining how they exchange structured deliverable formats and track project status.

Can I enforce quality gates and retry logic for UX specifications?

Yes, design handoff enforces quality through defined review verdicts and retry logic for UX specifications. This quality gate procedure ensures artifacts meet standards before a lifecycle phase is marked completed.

What formats are needed for a structured design handoff?

Structured handoffs require precise artifact formats for research briefs, information architecture, wireframes, UX specs, UI designs, and test reports. These defined structures ensure clarity and consistency across the lifecycle.
