AI Design Lifecycle (AIDLC) — designs AI-powered product experiences covering strategy, research, UX patterns (conversational UI, copilots, prompts, suggestions), interaction design (streaming, multi-turn, regeneration), states and edge cases (loading, hallucination, rate limiting), safety and ethics (bias, consent, transparency), personalization (adaptive UI, recommendations), and emerging patterns (agents, generative UI, multimodal, RAG). Use when designing any AI/ML feature, chatbot, copilot, recommendation system, generative AI interface, or AI-assisted workflow. Triggers on: AI, ML, LLM, chatbot, copilot, conversational UI, prompt, generative AI, recommendation, suggestion, streaming response, hallucination, AI safety, AI ethics, bias, content moderation, AI onboarding, human-in-the-loop, regenerate, AI agent, multimodal, RAG, prompt engineering, AI personalization, adaptive UI.

AI Design Lifecycle (AIDLC)

Design AI-powered experiences that are useful, trustworthy, and transparent. AI features have unique UX challenges — this skill provides the frameworks.

When to load references

User's task involves	Load
AI feature strategy, use case identification, AI business models, AI competitive analysis, AI roadmapping	`.claude/skills/aidlc/ai-product-strategy.md`
Understanding AI user needs, trust research, AI mental models, AI anxiety, prompt research	`.claude/skills/aidlc/ai-research.md`
Conversational UI, prompt interfaces, copilot patterns, AI onboarding, transparency, explainability, suggestion UI, confidence indicators	`.claude/skills/aidlc/ai-design-patterns.md`
AI loading states, streaming UI, hallucination handling, error states, rate limiting, moderation, timeouts	`.claude/skills/aidlc/ai-states-quality.md`
AI bias, fairness, consent, privacy, content moderation, watermarking, misuse prevention, AI ethics	`.claude/skills/aidlc/ai-safety-ethics.md`
AI agents, generative UI, multimodal, AI personalization, adaptive UI, prompt engineering, RAG, AI technical collaboration	`.claude/skills/aidlc/ai-emerging-technical.md`

Core principle

AI features must earn user trust through transparency, control, and graceful failure. Users should always know:

When AI is acting vs. a deterministic system
How confident the AI is in its output
How to correct, override, or turn off the AI

Quick reference: AI UX heuristics

Set expectations — Tell users what the AI can and cannot do before they use it
Show your work — Explain why the AI made a recommendation or decision
Fail gracefully — AI will be wrong; design for recovery, not perfection
Keep humans in control — AI suggests, user decides
Design for iteration — First AI output is rarely final; enable refinement
Be honest about limitations — Never hide uncertainty or pretend AI is human
