Galactic Design Handoff
Use this skill to consolidate approved product and design decisions into a clean handoff artifact for future engineering work.
Required Context
Read these first:
../references/galactic-product-foundation.md
README.md
- The latest
Solution Brief
- The latest
UX/UI Spec
- The latest
Design Validation Report
If the validation report does not explicitly pass the design, stop and say the handoff is blocked pending revision.
Workflow
- Reconfirm the approved user goal and scope.
- Convert the UX/UI spec into behavior-level requirements.
- Compile the full state matrix and acceptance criteria.
- Add instrumentation needs that product should measure after implementation.
- Record dependencies and open risks without inventing engineering solutions.
- Package the result as the canonical input for future engineering skills.
Hard Rules
- Do not make new product decisions in the handoff.
- Do not introduce implementation detail that was not approved upstream.
- Keep requirements observable and testable from the user side.
- Call out open risks plainly so future engineer skills inherit the right caution.
- Preserve the distinction between primary user value and secondary nice-to-haves.
