SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Quickly generate throwaway HTML UI sketches to explore multiple design directions, enabling fast comparison before committing to full implementation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • 2-3 variant sketches per idea to compare different UI directions.
  • Sketches are stored in .planning/sketches/ and integrate with GSD commit patterns, state tracking, and handoff workflows.
  • No dedicated project bootstrap is required; the system auto-creates .planning/sketches/ if needed.

Quick Start

Describe a design idea and run the sketch workflow to generate 2-3 variants.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate UI mockups to compare different design directions?

You can rapidly generate throwaway HTML UI sketches by describing a design idea, which creates 2-3 variant sketches to compare different UI directions before full implementation.

What is the best way to create throwaway HTML UI sketches for prototyping?

The best way to create throwaway HTML UI sketches is using a rapid sketching workflow that generates 2-3 variants per idea, storing them in .planning/sketches/ to explore multiple directions quickly.

Do I need to manually set up a project directory before generating design sketches?

No dedicated project bootstrap is required to generate design sketches. The system auto-creates the .planning/sketches/ directory if it does not already exist when you run the sketch workflow.

Can I streamline the intake process when generating multiple UI variants?

Yes, you can streamline the intake process for generating UI variants by using the --quick flag, which accelerates the sketch workflow and reduces initial input requirements.

Does the HTML sketch workflow integrate with state tracking and commit patterns?

Yes, the HTML sketch workflow integrates with GSD commit patterns, state tracking, and handoff workflows, storing all generated mockup variants in .planning/sketches/ for project continuity.

What file format are the UI variant mockups stored in?

The UI variant mockups are stored as HTML files within the .planning/sketches/ directory, allowing them to be easily opened in web browsers for rapid design evaluation.
