# TidyFactor Design (Code-Native UI Design Lifecycle Engine) A command dispatcher supporting the full UI design lifecycle—from initial discovery through developer handoff—with zero build steps and complete design system consistency. ## Lifecycle Commands (24 Commands across 7 Stages) | Lifecycle Stage | User intent / Command | Command File | What it loads | |---|---|---|---| | **1.

Delivery** | "Local preview and deployment" | `references/commands/deploy.md` | `memory/06-quality-bar.md` | ## Non-negotiable constraints 1. **Zero per-page CSS/JS**: Every visual token and component style lives inside `design-system/`. Pages contain markup only. 2. **Single CSS Foundation**: Lock Native, Tailwind, daisyUI, Hybrid, shadcn, Pico, Bootstrap, or Alpine once per project; never mix foundations. 3. **Typography Discipline**: Arabic display headings use El Messiri, body copy uses Tajawal. Never use Amiri for headings above 24px. 4. **Reduced Motion**: `prefers-reduced-motion` compliance is required on all animated interactions. 5. **Anti-Slop Bar**: Reject the 16 Named AI Anti-Pattern Tells and require Pre-Emit Self-Critique score stamps (`/* Pre-emit critique: P5 H4 E5 S4 R5 V5 */`).
