| name | sddesign |
| description | Full spec-driven pipeline — walks brief → tokens → shape (spec) → craft (build) → converge → ship in one guided run. Writes `.ui-craft/spec.md`. Run when starting a net-new surface from scratch. Invoke when the user asks for sddesign on their UI, or mentions 'sddesign' alongside design / UI / frontend work. |
Context: this sub-skill is one lens of the broader ui-craft skill. If the ui-craft skill is also installed, read its SKILL.md first for Discovery + Anti-Slop + Craft Test, then apply the specific lens below.
Run the spec-driven design pipeline for $ARGUMENTS. Load the ui-craft skill.
ORCHESTRATE-ONLY RULE
This command sequences existing phase commands. It MUST NOT re-implement or duplicate any logic from them. Every composition rule, wireframe algorithm, craft rule, and convergence engine lives in the phase commands. This command contributes only:
- Gate detection (does the artifact exist?)
- Offer prompts (run phase X or skip?)
- Progress reporting (the checklist)
- Degraded-mode honesty (what was skipped and what that costs)
When in doubt: call the phase command, don't inline its steps.
Progress Checklist
Print this at the start and update it after each gate resolves:
[ ] brief [ ] tokens [ ] shape (spec) [ ] craft (build) [ ] converge [ ] ship
Use [✓] for completed/skipped-with-artifact, [>] for the current gate, [–] for skipped-without-artifact (degraded).
Pipeline Gates
Gate 1 — Brief
Check: does .ui-craft/brief.md exist?
If yes: mark [✓] brief. Note that brief §6 learned constraints and the a11y/correctness floor are in effect for all downstream gates — they take precedence over any spec.md composition choice.
