SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

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.

FAQPage Schema
How do I make UX design decisions traceable to their original purpose?

You can make UX decisions traceable by building a project context document that outlines users, constraints, ethical stance, and success criteria, replacing hidden assumptions with explicit, evidence-oriented reasoning.

What is the best way to detect dark patterns during a UX audit?

Detect dark patterns by running an extract mode audit on existing experiences to produce a UX pattern inventory, categorizing what works, what fails, and which elements are manipulative or missing.

How do I document project context for UX strategy and kickoff framing?

Document UX project context by creating a reusable artifact covering real user behaviors, product constraints, ethical stance, and success criteria to guide routed execution across practice domains.

Can I route UX work across different practice domains like flows and information design?

Yes, you can route UX execution across practice domains like flows and information design using mode-based routing that directs framing, research, system mapping, and writing to specialized skills.

When should I not use context-first reasoning for UX design?

Avoid context-first UX reasoning when rapid, unconstrained prototyping is needed, as this system requires explicit ethical stances, anti-pattern defense, and evidence-oriented reasoning before design execution.

Does this UX strategy approach support evidence-oriented decision-making?

Yes, this UX strategy approach supports evidence-oriented decision-making by applying systems thinking and principle-to-execution guidance, ensuring UX quality remains testable from strategy through implementation.
