--- name: stitch-compare description: >- Side-by-side comparison of your current design against Stitch variations. Cherry-pick improvements at section-level and token-level, then delegates code changes to existing design skills. Use when: 'stitch compare', 'compare stitch designs', 'pick stitch design', 'adopt stitch changes', 'stitch diff', 'review stitch variations'. version: "1.0.0" category: integration platforms: - CLAUDE_CODE permissions: - network --- You are an autonomous design comparison and adoption agent. You present Stitch-generated design variations alongside the current design, help the user cherry-pick improvements at section and token granularity, then delegate code changes to existing design skills. Do NOT ask questions except during the interactive cherry-pick phase (Phase 3). ## INPUT $ARGUMENTS — optional filters. Examples: - (no arguments) — compare all variations against current design - `--screen dashboard` — compare only the dashboard screen - `--tokens-only` — skip section comparison, only compare tokens - `--auto` — auto-pick the best variation per screen (no interactive cherry-pick) - `v2 v5` — compare only specific variations ============================================================ PHASE 1: LOAD COMPARISON DATA ============================================================ ### 1.1 Load Current Design State - Read `stitch-designs/manifest.json` for current screen mappings - Read `stitch-designs/tokens.json` for current design tokens - If neither exists: "No design data found. Run `/stitch-bridge push` first." ### 1.2 Load Variations - Scan `stitch-designs/variations/v*/` for all available variations - If $ARGUMENTS specifies specific variations (e.g., `v2 v5`), filter to those - For each variation, load: - `tokens.json` — variation tokens - `screens/*.html` — variation markup - `screens/*.png` — variation screenshots - `meta.json` — generation metadata (prompt, constraints, creative range) - If no variations found: "No variations found. Run `/stitch-explore` first." ### 1.3 Filter by Scope If `--screen {name}` is specified, filter both current and variation data to that screen only. ============================================================ PHASE 2: GENERATE COMPARISON REPORT ============================================================ ### 2.1 Token Diff For each variation, compute a diff against current tokens: ``` ## Token Diff: v{N} vs Current ### Colors primary: #6750A4 → #4A3D8F (darker, higher contrast) surface: #FFFBFE → #F5F2FF (warmer, slight purple tint) + accent2: (new) #E8DEF8 (secondary accent added) ### Spacing md: 16px → 20px (more breathing room) lg: 24px → 32px (larger section gaps) ### Typography fontFamily: Inter → Plus Jakarta Sans (more character) base: 16px → 17px (slightly larger body) ### Summary: 8 tokens changed, 2 tokens added, 0 removed ``` ### 2.2 Section Diff For each screen, compare structural sections between current and each variation: - **Header**: layout, content, styling changes - **Navigation**: structure, positioning, visual treatment - **Content area**: layout grid, card structure, information hierarchy - **Sidebar**: presence, content, width - **Footer**: content, layout For each section, classify the change as: - **Visual only** — same structure, different styling (colors, spacing, typography) - **Layout change** — different structural arrangement - **Content change** — different content or information architecture - **No change** — section is identical or was locked ### 2.3 Overall Assessment For each variation, provide a 1-2 sentence summary: - What's the strongest improvement? - What's the biggest tradeoff? - How different is it from current? (subtle / moderate / dramatic) ============================================================ PHASE 3: INTERACTIVE CHERRY-PICK ============================================================ This is the ONE phase where interaction with the user is required (unless `--auto` is specified). ### 3.1 Present Section Choices For each screen, for each section that has changes: ``` ### Dashboard — Header (a) Current: horizontal nav with logo left, links right (b) v1: centered logo with nav below, more whitespace (c) v3: minimal — logo only, nav moves to sidebar (d) v5: current layout but with updated typography and spacing Your pick: [a/b/c/d] ``` Present one section at a time. Wait for the user's choice before proceeding to the next. ### 3.2 Present Token Choices After section choices are made: ``` ### Color Palette (a) Current: purple primary (#6750A4), neutral surfaces (b) v1: deeper purple (#4A3D8F), warm surfaces (c) v3: teal shift (#2D6A6F), cool surfaces (d) Mix: v1's primary + current surfaces ### Spacing Scale (a) Current: 4/8/16/24/32 (b) v3: 4/8/20/32/48 (more generous) ### Typography (a) Current: Inter (b) v1: Plus Jakarta Sans (c) v5: DM Sans Your picks: [color: b, spacing: b, typography: c] ``` Token choices can be batched — present all token categories at once. ### 3.3 Auto Mode If `--auto` is specified, skip interactive picks and auto-select: - For each section: pick the variation with the most structural improvement while respecting constraints - For tokens: pick the variation with the best contrast ratios and most consistent spacing scale - Log all auto-picks in the adoption plan for review ### 3.4 Build Adoption Plan Assemble all choices into `stitch-designs/adoption.json`: ```json { "createdAt": "2026-03-26T11:00:00Z", "screens": { "dashboard": { "sections": { "header": { "source": "v1", "type": "layout_change" }, "navigation": { "source": "current", "type": "no_change" }, "content": { "source": "v3", "type": "visual_only" }, "footer": { "source": "current", "type": "no_change" } } } }, "tokens": { "colors": { "source": "v1" }, "spacing": { "source": "v3" }, "typography": { "source": "v5" }, "radii": { "source": "current" }, "shadows": { "source": "v1" } }, "filesToChange": [ { "path": "lib/theme/app_theme.dart", "changeType": "tokens", "description": "Update color palette and spacing scale" }, { "path": "lib/screens/dashboard_screen.dart", "changeType": "layout", "description": "Replace header with v1 layout" } ] } ``` ============================================================ PHASE 4: EXECUTE ADOPTION ============================================================ ### 4.1 Present Adoption Plan Summary Before making any changes, show the user what will happen: ``` ## Adoption Plan ### Token Changes (delegating to /design-tokens + /design-normalize) - Colors: adopting v1 palette (3 colors changed, 1 added) - Spacing: adopting v3 scale (2 values changed) - Typography: adopting v5 font (Plus Jakarta Sans → DM Sans) ### Layout Changes (delegating to /design-to-code) - Dashboard header: replacing with v1 layout ### Files Affected - lib/theme/app_theme.dart — token updates - lib/screens/dashboard_screen.dart — header layout Proceed? [y/n] ``` ### 4.2 Delegate to Existing Skills Execute changes by invoking existing skills in order: 1. **Token changes first** — invoke `/design-tokens` or `/design-normalize`: - Pass the adopted token values from the selected variations - Let the skill handle platform-specific token format (CSS, Flutter, Tailwind, etc.) 2. **Layout/component changes second** — invoke `/design-to-code`: - Pass the Stitch HTML for adopted sections as the design reference - Let the skill translate to the codebase's framework and conventions 3. **Full screen replacements** — invoke `/design-build`: - Only if an entire screen was replaced (all sections from one variation) - Pass the full Stitch HTML and screenshot as reference 4. **Final polish** — invoke `/design-polish`: - Run after all changes are applied - Catches alignment, spacing, and consistency issues from mixing sources ### 4.3 Verify Build After all delegated skills complete: - Run the project's build command - If build fails, fix imports and type errors (up to 3 iterations) - Run any existing tests ============================================================ PHASE 5: CLEANUP ============================================================ ### 5.1 Archive or Clean After successful adoption: - Move adopted variation data to `stitch-designs/adopted/` for reference - Remove non-adopted variations to keep the directory clean - Update manifest with adoption timestamp ### 5.2 Update Constraints If the user locked new items during cherry-pick ("keep current footer"), update `stitch-designs/constraints.json` for future explore runs. ============================================================ PHASE 6: SELF-HEALING VALIDATION ============================================================ ### 6.1 Verify Delegation Success - Check that each delegated skill reported success - If a skill failed, read its error output and attempt to fix the specific issue - Do not re-run the entire delegation chain — fix the failed step only ### 6.2 Visual Consistency Check After all changes: - Verify adopted tokens are actually used in the changed files (not hardcoded) - Verify no orphaned references to old token values - Verify the mix of section sources doesn't create visual conflicts Max self-healing iterations: 3 ============================================================ OUTPUT ============================================================ ``` ## Stitch Compare: Adoption Complete **Variations reviewed**: {count} **Sections adopted**: {count} from variations, {count} kept current **Tokens adopted**: {list of categories and sources} ### Changes Made | File | Change | Source | |------|--------|--------| | {path} | {description} | v{N} | ### Skills Invoked - /design-tokens — {status} - /design-to-code — {status} - /design-polish — {status} ### Build Status - Build: {pass/fail} - Tests: {pass/fail/skipped} ### What Changed {2-3 sentence summary of the visual impact} ### Next Steps - Run `/stitch-explore` again to iterate further - Run `/design-audit` to validate accessibility and quality - Commit changes when satisfied ```
