SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Cross-cutting layout and ergonomics rules for designing the kitchen. Use whenever creating or modifying a kitchen — apply these on top of the per-kind rules in the family skills. This skill does not emit any kitchen instances itself.

Core Features & Use Cases

Rule integration: Aligns ikea-cabinet, ikea-worktop, ikea-stove, ikea-light, ikea-hood, ikea-oven, ikea-sink, ikea-table, ikea-accessory rules to produce a coherent plan.
Conflict detection: Identifies gaps, overlaps, and swing constraints, offering trade-offs to preserve ergonomics.
Use Case: Before finalizing a kitchen.json, apply these cross-cutting rules to ensure a consistent base design across all family skills.

Quick Start

Apply the cross-cutting ergonomics rules when planning or updating a kitchen layout to ensure cohesive, safe, and ergonomic results.

FAQPage Schema

How do I ensure my kitchen layout follows consistent ergonomic rules across different cabinet and appliance families?▼

Cross-cutting kitchen design rules integrate all family-specific constraints—cabinets, worktops, stoves, lighting, hoods, ovens, sinks, tables, and accessories—into a coherent plan. They enforce ergonomic and clearance limits, flagging trade-offs and suggesting safe, production-ready resolutions for conflicts.

What's the best way to detect clearance conflicts between kitchen worktops, stoves, and hoods before finalizing a design?▼

The best way to detect clearance conflicts is to apply cross-cutting layout rules that check ergonomic constraints across all family skills simultaneously. This method identifies gaps, overlaps, and swing constraints, suggesting safe resolutions to preserve kitchen ergonomics.

Do I need a separate rule-checking skill if I am already using individual IKEA cabinet and sink design tools?▼

Yes, you need a separate cross-cutting rule skill because individual family tools do not enforce integration constraints on their own. Applying overarching ergonomic rules ensures all per-kind family designs align into a conflict-free, production-ready kitchen plan.

Why does my kitchen design have overlapping layout constraints between the oven and adjacent cabinets?▼

Overlapping layout constraints occur when per-kind family rules are applied without cross-cutting integration. Applying overarching ergonomic and clearance rules detects these overlaps and suggests trade-offs to resolve the conflicts safely across all family skills.

Can I generate kitchen cabinet and appliance instances directly using cross-family layout rules?▼

No, cross-family layout rules do not emit any kitchen instances themselves. They function as an integration layer, applying ergonomic and clearance constraints on top of the instances generated by the individual family skills to ensure a coherent design.
