What problem does it solve?
Intent helps you replace “it works” product thinking with explicit UX reasoning, so every design decision has a visible, ethical purpose rather than hidden assumptions.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Context-first project alignment: Build a project context document covering users, product constraints, ethical stance, and success criteria before any design work begins.
- Routed UX strategy and practice: Route to specialized skills for framing, research, system mapping, flow design, information organization, and writing—using the right mode for the job.
- Ethical anti-pattern defense: Identify and refute manipulative UX patterns (dark patterns) so designs protect user autonomy and trust.
- Principle-to-execution guidance: Use systems thinking and evidence-based reasoning so UX quality is testable from strategy through implementation.
- Extract mode for audits: Produce a UX pattern inventory for existing products, highlighting what works, fails, is manipulative, and what’s missing.
Quick Start
Use the intent skill to set the project context for your UX work by outlining the users’ real behaviors, the product constraints, the ethical stance, and what success should measure.
