SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Design shotgun facilitates rapid AI-driven design exploration by producing multiple visual variants and a side-by-side comparison board, enabling faster direction decisions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generate multiple AI-driven design variants for a UI feature and present them side-by-side for quick evaluation.
  • Collect structured feedback and iterate toward a preferred direction with a clear feedback loop.
  • Persist and organize design artifacts, briefs, and boards under the gstack workspace for cross-branch reuse.

Quick Start

Run /design-shotgun to generate design directions and review the comparison board in your browser.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate multiple UI design variants for side-by-side comparison?

You can generate multiple AI-driven design variants side-by-side by running a design shotgun session, which produces visual mockups for quick evaluation and direction selection. It coordinates session context and design briefs to output a comparison board.

What is AI visual brainstorming for feature ideation?

AI visual brainstorming generates multiple design directions for a UI feature, presenting them side-by-side to facilitate rapid iteration. It helps you evaluate different visual approaches and select a preferred direction using structured feedback.

How do I iterate on mockups using structured feedback?

Iterate on mockups by collecting structured feedback within the design shotgun session, which enables a clear feedback loop to refine generated variants toward your preferred direction. The session persists design artifacts for cross-branch reuse.

Can I use design shotgun for standalone UI design exploration?

Yes, design shotgun is built for standalone UI design exploration, applying AI to generate visual variants and route them into a comparison board. It organizes artifacts under the gstack workspace for easy access.

Where are generated design artifacts and comparison boards stored?

Generated design artifacts, briefs, and comparison boards are stored under the gstack workspace at ~/.gstack/projects/slug/designs. This persistence allows you to review the comparison board in your browser and reuse artifacts across branches.
