UX Audit

Overview

Part of StyleSeed, this skill audits usability rather than just visuals. It uses Nielsen's 10 heuristics plus modern mobile UX expectations to find issues in navigation, feedback, recovery, hierarchy, and cognitive load.

When to Use

• Use when a screen feels awkward even though the code and styling seem correct
• Use when evaluating a flow before or after implementation
• Use when reviewing a mobile-first product for usability regressions
• Use when you want findings framed as user experience problems with remediation

Audit Framework

Review the target against:

• visibility of system status
• match between system and real-world language
• user control and freedom
• consistency and standards
• error prevention
• recognition rather than recall
• flexibility and efficiency
• aesthetic and minimalist design
• recovery from errors
• help, onboarding, and empty-state guidance

Add mobile-specific checks for reachability, touch ergonomics, input burden, and thumb-friendly action placement.

Output

Return:

1. A prioritized issue list
2. The heuristic violated by each issue
3. Why the issue matters to real users
4. Specific remediation suggestions for the page, component, or flow

Best Practices

• Judge the experience from the user's point of view, not the implementer's
• Separate high-severity flow blockers from minor polish issues
• Include recovery and state-management guidance, not only layout comments
• Tie recommendations back to concrete UI changes
