SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Evaluate design from a UX perspective, assessing visual hierarchy, information architecture, emotional resonance, cognitive load, and overall quality with quantitative scoring, persona-based testing, and actionable feedback. Use when the user asks to review, critique, evaluate, or give feedback on a design or component.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Holistic UX critique across multiple dimensions (visual hierarchy, IA, cognitive load, emotion) with structured, prioritized feedback.
  • Phase-based workflow: Phase 1: design critique; Phase 2: detailed findings with heuristics scoring; Phase 3: clarifying questions; Phase 4: recommended actions and commands.
  • Persona-driven insights: surface red flags for common personas (Alex, Jordan, Sam, Riley, Casey) and derive project-specific personas if context exists.
  • Actionable outputs: design health score, anti-pattern verdict, priority issues, and suggested commands for quick iteration.
  • Use cases: design reviews, UX audits, stakeholder feedback sessions, rapid design improvement cycles.

Quick Start

Provide the target area (feature, page, component) and I will return a structured UX critique.

Frequently Asked Questions about critique

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I get structured UX critique and feedback for my interface design?▼

To get structured UX critique, you provide the target interface, page, or component. The system evaluates visual hierarchy, cognitive load, and information architecture, delivering phase-based analysis, heuristics scoring, and a design-health score.

What is included in a UX design audit and heuristics evaluation?▼

A UX design audit and heuristics evaluation includes holistic analysis across visual hierarchy, information architecture, and emotional resonance. It provides quantitative heuristics scoring, persona-driven red flags, anti-pattern verdicts, and prioritized recommendations.

Can I evaluate cognitive load and information architecture for specific user personas?▼

Yes, you can evaluate cognitive load and information architecture for specific personas. The critique surfaces red flags for common personas like Alex, Jordan, and Sam, and can derive project-specific personas if your design context includes them.

How do I review a UI component for anti-patterns and visual hierarchy issues?▼

To review a UI component for anti-patterns and visual hierarchy issues, you submit the artifact for evaluation. The system applies phase-based workflow analysis to identify priority issues and provide actionable feedback with a design-health score.

What do I need to provide to run a UX design review on a page or flow?▼

To run a UX design review on a page or flow, you need to provide a design context, such as an artifact via frontend-design or teach-impeccable protocol. The system analyzes the provided context to produce structured critique and recommended actions.

When should I use a structured UX critique workflow instead of a general design review?▼

You should use a structured UX critique workflow when you need quantitative scoring, persona-driven testing, and actionable feedback across visual hierarchy and cognitive load dimensions. It is ideal for UX audits, stakeholder feedback sessions, and rapid design improvement cycles.
