# Design
## Purpose
Master design skill. Aesthetic direction + design systems + component design + UI/UX and information-architecture guidance. Translates user intent into specific, opinionated design decisions -- never vague suggestions. Every output has a clear conceptual direction executed with precision.
## When to Use
- Designing interfaces (web or mobile)
- Creating or extending a design system
- Choosing aesthetic direction for a project
- Structuring text-heavy or CLI-facing information architecture when hierarchy, framing, and flow are design problems
- Component design and layout decisions
- Responsive design strategy
- Typography and color palette selection
- Spatial composition and visual hierarchy
## Process
### Step 1 -- Load Design Thinking Framework
Read `handlers/aesthetics.md` for the full aesthetic direction philosophy. This establishes the design thinking framework (Purpose, Tone, Constraints, Differentiation) and all frontend aesthetics guidelines.
### Step 2 -- Load UX Rules and Design System Intelligence
Read `handlers/design-system.md` for the priority-ranked UX rule database, covering accessibility, touch targets, performance, style selection, layout, typography, animation, forms, navigation, and data visualization.
### Step 3 -- Analyze the Request
Apply the design thinking framework from `handlers/aesthetics.md` (or directly if the handler is unavailable):
1. **Purpose** -- what problem does this interface solve? Who uses it?
2. **Tone**
