Devrites UX Shape

Category: Product  ·  Sub-category: ux-research  ·  Last updated:
Plan the UX/UI before any code — produce the feature-level `design-brief.md` (design direction, key states, interaction model, visual-direction probe) the build then targets. Use when `/rite-spec` detects UI, or the user says "shape the UX", "plan the UI before coding", "design direction", "what should this look like", or a UI feature needs its look & flow decided up front. Woven into spec/build, not a separate phase. Not for building (use `devrites-frontend-craft`), polishing a built UI (use `/rite-polish`), or throwaway exploration (use `/rite-prototype`).

From the source SKILL.md

Decide what the UI is and how it should look and behave before code, and write it to the feature's design-brief.md — the contract the build (devrites-frontend-craft), polish, and seal all check against. This is "shape before code" raised to a feature-level artifact: produced once at spec time, refined per slice. It is woven into the lifecycle (/rite-spec calls it when UI is detected; /rite-build refines it), not a separate phase the user runs.

What this skill does

Devrites UX Shape is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the ux-research sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/devrites-ux-shape/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when `/rite-spec` detects UI, or the user says "shape the UX", "plan the UI before coding", "design direction", "what should this look like", or a UI feature needs its look & flow decided up front. Woven into spec/build, not a separate phase.
