Generation Contract
Resolve the product thesis, audience feeling, content spine, assets, and constraints before generating visual directions.
PatternsRecommended
Intent
Turn an underspecified UI prompt into a compact creative strategy without allowing subject labels or fashionable treatments to choose the aesthetic.
Checks
- Identify the primary user outcome, audience feeling, and usage context.
- Record the required content, strongest available subject evidence, and real asset constraints.
- Name the existing or chosen design foundation without choosing a style from category labels alone.
Warnings
- Do not expose a long design questionnaire when repository evidence can resolve the decisions.
Exceptions
- A narrowly scoped visual fix may need only a one-line context read.
