Purpose
This skill coordinates the full UI evidence pipeline. It is explicit-only and is not a replacement for the individual UIUX, Tone & Manner, or UIDesign skills.
Use it only when the work must produce or verify all three connected artifacts:
- UIUX Pack
- Tone & Manner catalog/project pack
- UIDesign Pack
It also ensures the UIUX Pack is wired to Tone & Manner via meta.tone_and_manner. It does not change information architecture (IA); IA changes belong to uiux-core.
When to use
Use only when the request explicitly calls for end-to-end orchestration or all connected UI evidence artifacts.
- The user asks for the full UI evidence pipeline, end-to-end orchestration, or all UI evidence artifacts.
- The request requires creating, verifying, and wiring together UIUX, Tone & Manner, and UIDesign outputs.
- A review program explicitly asks for this wrapper to coordinate the individual skills.
When not to use
- For UIUX structure, IA, flows, wireframes, or transition agreement only, use
uiux-core.
- For Tone & Manner cataloging, selection, or application only, use
tonemana-catalog or tonemana-apply.
- For visual tokens, HTML previews, styling review notes, or UIDesign output only, use
uidesign-flow.
- For copy tone, visual taste, or single-step design feedback that does not require the full artifact chain, use the relevant individual skill.
- Do not infer this orchestrator just because more than one UI skill could be useful.
Workflow (high-level)
Open references/uidesign-orchestrator.md when running the workflow steps below.
- Preflight: locate or create a fill-free UIUX Pack.
- Ensure the Tone & Manner catalog exists (
tonemana-catalog).
- Ensure the project Tone & Manner pack exists and UIUX wiring is present (
tonemana-apply).
- Generate or update the UIDesign Pack (
uidesign-flow).
- Report changed paths and the review order.
Required completion message
Always include:
uiux/<pack>/previews/flow-map.html (transition agreement entry point)uidesign/<pack>/previews/index.html (visual styling review entry point)tonemana/catalog/previews/index.html (mention UI-based 7-pattern switching)- A short reminder: agree transitions first, then compare tone-and-manner in Review Mode (
Export JSON/Markdown).
Output expectation
- Report the changed paths for all three artifacts: UIUX Pack, Tone & Manner catalog/project pack, and UIDesign Pack.
- Confirm the UIUX Pack is wired to Tone & Manner via
meta.tone_and_manner.
- Include all three required entry-point paths and the review-order reminder from the completion message above.
