SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Choosing a UI design direction from abstract descriptions is risky and slow. This Skill produces multiple disposable, interactive HTML mockups so you can compare real design variants side-by-side before committing to one. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Multi-Variant Generation: Builds 2-3 standalone HTML files, each taking a genuinely different design stance (density, emphasis, layout, aesthetic) rather than minor styling tweaks. - Structured Intake: Elicits feel, references, and the core user action before generating, so variants serve the actual goal. - Visual Verification: Uses browser navigation and vision tools to render each variant and catch layout bugs before presenting them. - Head-to-Head Comparison: Presents an opinionated comparison table of trade-offs so you can pick a winner, hybridize, or iterate. - Use Case: You are redesigning a dashboard home screen and unsure whether to go content-first or tool-first. The Skill asks three quick intake questions, then produces a calm editorial variant, a dense utilitarian variant, and a playful split-pane variant, each clickable and interactive, with a comparison table recommending which fits your audience. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to sketch 2-3 design variants of your screen, for example: "Sketch three takes on the settings page — I want it to feel calm and editorial like Linear, and the core action is updating notification preferences."

FAQPage Schema
How do I compare multiple UI design directions before building?▼

Generate 2-3 standalone HTML mockup variants, each taking a different design stance such as density, emphasis, or layout. Present them in a comparison table covering trade-offs, then pick a winner, combine two into a hybrid, or iterate another round.

How to create quick interactive HTML mockups without a build step?▼

Write a single self-contained HTML file with inline styles, system fonts or one Google Font, and optionally Tailwind via CDN. Use realistic fake content and include at least one state transition like a toggle, filter, or modal so the mockup is clickable.

When should I use throwaway sketches instead of production components?▼

Use sketches when the design direction is still open and you need to compare options cheaply. Once a direction is locked, build the real component properly instead of polishing a disposable mockup into production code.

Can HTML mockups be verified visually for layout bugs?▼

Yes. Open each variant in a browser via file:// URL and use a vision tool to inspect the rendered page. This catches issues source inspection misses, such as failed font imports, collapsed flex containers, or overlapping text.

What are the limitations of disposable HTML design sketches?▼

Sketches are not shippable code and should not be curated as assets. They use fake content, minimal interactivity, and no accessibility or performance guarantees. A sketch worth preserving should be promoted into real project code.
