SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill closes the gap between functional correctness and real-world usability by finding where users hesitate, get confused, or fail to complete a task.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Heuristic evaluation: Review a running feature against Nielsen's 10 usability heuristics and record severity, location, and fix direction.
  • Real-user test planning: Create a moderated or unmoderated test protocol with goals, hypotheses, tasks, success measures, and logistics.
  • Findings synthesis: Turn raw session notes into prioritized, evidence-backed improvements that can become roadmap tasks.
  • Use case: A team has shipped a checkout flow that passes QA but still feels clumsy; this Skill helps diagnose the friction and translate it into clear next steps.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to evaluate the current feature, write a usability report, or synthesize user-test notes into prioritized improvements.

FAQPage Schema
How do I identify usability issues in a feature before release?

Identify usability issues by running a heuristic evaluation against Nielsen's 10 heuristics to record severity, location, and fix directions for shipped interfaces and route flows without editing source code.

How do I create a usability test plan for a checkout flow?

Create a usability test plan by generating a moderated or unmoderated protocol complete with goals, hypotheses, tasks, success measures, and SUS-ready logistics to evaluate real-world user friction.

What is the best way to synthesize raw user testing notes into roadmap tasks?

Synthesize user testing notes by transforming raw session observations into prioritized, evidence-backed improvements and outputting them as source-labeled findings in a markdown report.

Can I use heuristic evaluation on a running application without modifying the source code?

Yes, you can perform a read-only heuristic evaluation of the running app and acceptance criteria, generating reports and SUS-ready testing plans to a markdown file without editing source code.

When do I need a heuristic evaluation versus a real-user test protocol?

Use heuristic evaluation to review a running feature against recognized usability principles, whereas a real-user test protocol is needed to measure actual task completion and SUS success metrics.
