# UX Compare
Read N pattern libraries produced by `ux-extract` and synthesise a comparison. Answers questions like:
- *"Across claude.ai, Linear, Notion, Vercel, and Superhuman — how are empty states handled?"*
- *"Which apps use keyboard shortcuts, and what's the shared vocabulary?"*
- *"When we build our billing page, should we follow convention or deliberately break it?"*
A single extract is a reference point. Multiple extracts are a design library. A comparison is a *decision aid* — it turns the library into "here's what to do and why".
## When to use
- **Before a build** — comparing 3–5 references for the feature class you're about to build reveals the convention and the tradeoffs
- **During a design review** — "this pattern isn't in any of the 5 references we've extracted — is that deliberate?"
- **For team alignment** — shared reference for a design decision
- **To produce a design brief** — convergent patterns become the baseline; divergent patterns become the discussion
## Inputs
### Available libraries
First, discover what's available. Pattern libraries live at:
- `docs/ux-extracts/<app-name>/pattern-library.md`
- `.jez/artifacts/ux-extracts/<app-name>/pattern-library.md`
List everything you find. Show the user the inventory with the extraction date for each so they can spot stale ones:
```
