SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The Design Review Skill provides a structured, persona-driven framework for evaluating designs and sites, surfacing gaps that cause mediocrity and offering bold, brand-aligned improvements.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Provocations across identity, hierarchy, copy, and product grounding to challenge safe design choices.
  • Modular: load lenses and doctrine to tailor context for brand, accessibility, and design-system coherence.
  • Layer 1 Creative Director walkthrough plus optional Layer 2 mechanical audits for typography, color, spacing, and interactions.
  • Plan/spec IA and state coverage checks to ensure clear user journeys and robust component definitions.
  • Output includes actionable provocations, concrete ideas, and a recommended next-step mode.

Quick Start

Provide a URL or a plan/spec and I will run Layer 1 provocations, then perform Layer 2 audits if requested, delivering a structured design-review report.

FAQPage Schema
What is a creative director design review and when do I need one?

A creative director design review evaluates a site or design plan to surface gaps in identity, hierarchy, copy, and product grounding. You need this critique process when safe design choices cause mediocrity and require bold, brand-aligned improvements.

How do I run a UX audit on an existing website?

To run a UX audit, provide a site URL to trigger Layer 1 provocations for identity and hierarchy gaps, then execute optional Layer 2 mechanical audits to check design system coherence, accessibility, and interaction quality.

Can I use design provocations to check a plan or spec before development?

Yes, you can submit a plan or spec for design provocations. The review performs IA and state coverage checks to ensure clear user journeys and robust component definitions, delivering a plan mode decision to guide next steps.

What is the best way to evaluate design system coherence and accessibility?

The best way to evaluate design system coherence is running Layer 2 audits after initial Layer 1 provocations. This modular approach loads specific lenses and doctrine to mechanically check typography, color, spacing, and interaction quality.

Does a structured design critique require any specific design framework or dependencies?

A structured design critique requires no specific external framework dependencies. You simply provide a URL or a design plan, and the modular lens system tailors context for brand identity, accessibility, and design-system coherence.

What limitations exist when auditing typography and color spacing in a design plan?

Auditing typography and color spacing through Layer 2 is optional and depends on initial Layer 1 findings. If the plan lacks robust component definitions or clear state coverage, mechanical interaction quality checks may yield limited actionable provocations.
