Run the full design-to-build workflow as a guided sequence. Orchestrates all designer skills in order, from grilling through review. Use when user wants to go through the complete design process, start a project from scratch, run the full flow, or mentions "design flow" or "full workflow".

Run a structured design critique against the brief and codebase. Checks visual hierarchy, consistency, responsiveness, accessibility, and aesthetic fidelity. Use when user wants a design review, critique, QA pass, polish pass, or mentions "review" after building.

Create a design brief through an interactive interview, codebase exploration, and experience design decisions. Saved as a markdown file in the project. Use when user wants to write a design brief, plan a new feature or page, define a UI direction, or mentions "brief".

Interview the user relentlessly about a plan or design until reaching shared understanding, resolving each branch of the decision tree. Use when user wants to stress-test a plan, get grilled on their design, challenge an approach, or mentions "grill me".

Break a design brief into an ordered checklist of independently buildable tasks using vertical slices. Saves as a markdown checklist. Use when user wants to break down work, create tasks from a brief, plan implementation order, or mentions "tasks" or "breakdown".

Generate a design tokens file (CSS variables or Tailwind config) based on a chosen aesthetic philosophy, with light and dark mode palettes, spacing scale, type ramp, and component-level tokens. Use when starting a new project, establishing a visual system, setting up tokens, or mentions "tokens" or "design system".

Define the structural layer of a product or site before visual design begins. Covers navigation, content hierarchy, page structure, URL patterns, and user flows. Use when user wants to plan site structure, define navigation, map user flows, organize content, or mentions "IA" or "information architecture".

Build distinctive, production-grade frontend interfaces with high design quality, guided by named aesthetic philosophies. Use when building components, pages, or applications. Generates working code with exceptional attention to aesthetic details and creative choices that avoid generic AI output.
