To generate AI design variants for visual brainstorming, use this Skill to create multiple design directions and open a side-by-side comparison board in the browser to evaluate them. You can iterate until a preferred direction is approved.

The best way to compare AI-generated design directions is using a browser-based comparison board that opens directly after generation. This allows you to evaluate multiple design variants visually and collect structured feedback for rapid iteration.

To persist AI design artifacts across branches and sessions, the Skill automatically saves all generated designs and session state under the ~/.gstack/projects/$SLUG/designs directory, ensuring cross-branch continuity for your visual brainstorming work.

Yes, you can collect structured feedback and iterate on designs directly within the comparison board. This accelerates visual decision-making by allowing you to quickly generate new variants based on feedback until a design direction is approved.

No external dependencies are required to run this visual brainstorming workflow. The Skill operates independently using its internal scripts, references, and assets to generate design variants and manage the browser-based comparison board.

An AI design brief defines project parameters for design exploration. You need it when rapidly generating multiple AI design variants to ensure the output aligns with your visual directions, helping reduce feedback cycles and accelerate decision-making.
