Get Design Done - Map

Parallel orchestrator. Spawns 5 specialist mappers, each writing one file under .design/map/. The explore stage consumes these when present. See ./reference/heuristics.md §"Optimization rules" for parallel-spawn cost considerations.

Mapper → Output

Mapper	Output
token-mapper	.design/map/tokens.md
component-taxonomy-mapper	.design/map/components.md
visual-hierarchy-mapper	.design/map/visual-hierarchy.md
a11y-mapper	.design/map/a11y.md
motion-mapper	.design/map/motion.md

Step 1 - Setup

• Ensure .design/map/ exists (create if missing).
• Read .design/config.json → parallelism object. Use reference/config-schema.md defaults if absent.
• Read .design/STATE.md - note <connections> (Figma availability for token-mapper).
• Parse $ARGUMENTS. If --only <name>, restrict the dispatch set to one mapper.

Step 2 - Parallelism Decision

Per reference/parallelism-rules.md: all 5 mappers have parallel-safe: auto with disjoint writes: (each writes a different .design/map/*.md file) - no hard-rule conflict. typical-duration-seconds sum (~210s) minus slowest (~45s) ≈ 165s savings → clears min_estimated_savings_seconds. Verdict: parallel.

Write the verdict to STATE.md:

<parallelism_decision>
  stage: map
  verdict: parallel
  reason: "5 mappers, parallel-safe: auto, writes disjoint, est savings ~165s"
  agents: ["token-mapper", "component-taxonomy-mapper", "visual-hierarchy-mapper", "a11y-mapper", "motion-mapper"]
  ruled_out: []
  timestamp: [ISO 8601 now]
</parallelism_decision>

--only → adjust agents and set verdict: serial with reason: "single mapper requested".

Step 3 - Dispatch (concurrent)

Spawn all selected mappers in a single response with multiple Task() calls:

Task("<mapper-name>", """
<required_reading>
@.design/STATE.md
@reference/audit-scoring.md
[@reference/accessibility.md — a11y-mapper only]
[@reference/motion.md — motion-mapper only]
</required_reading>

You are <mapper-name>. Scan the codebase per your agent spec and write your
output file under .design/map/. Emit your completion marker when done.
""")

Wait for each completion marker: ## TOKEN MAP COMPLETE, ## COMPONENT MAP COMPLETE, ## VISUAL HIERARCHY MAP COMPLETE, ## A11Y MAP COMPLETE, ## MOTION MAP COMPLETE.

Step 3.5 - Synthesize parallel mapper outputs (Plan 10.1-04, D-13/D-14/D-15)

Each mapper has written its own .design/map/*.md (disjoint writes). Main-context doesn't need all 5 verbatim - invoke synthesize inline with outputs:[<each file's text labelled "=== from <mapper> ==="], directive: "Merge into cross-cutting DESIGN-PATTERNS.md preserving section headers; consolidate cross-mapper duplicates with source-agent names; target ~120 lines.", output_shape:"markdown".

Wait for ## SYNTHESIS COMPLETE. Write merged markdown to .design/DESIGN-PATTERNS.md (overwrite if present) - the primary explore-stage input; per-mapper files remain as drill-down evidence. --only (single mapper) → skip this step.

Step 4 - Collate

Write .design/DESIGN-MAP.md - thin index linking to each .design/map/*.md with a one-paragraph summary from each file's header. If Step 3.5 ran, also cross-link to .design/DESIGN-PATTERNS.md and note at the top: "See DESIGN-PATTERNS.md for the merged cross-cutting summary - this index preserves per-mapper drill-down."

Step 5 - Report

━━━ Map complete ━━━
Files: .design/map/tokens.md, components.md, visual-hierarchy.md, a11y.md, motion.md
Index: .design/DESIGN-MAP.md
Next: /gdd:explore (consumes .design/DESIGN-PATTERNS.md on happy path; .design/map/*.md available for drill-down)
