SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Exploring UI design directions one at a time is slow and makes it hard to compare options. This Skill generates multiple design variants in parallel, presents them on a comparison board, and collects structured feedback so you can iterate toward an approved design quickly. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Parallel Variant Generation: Spawn multiple AI design variants of a UI feature at once instead of iterating serially. - Comparison Board: Open a visual board to review variants side by side and gather structured feedback on each option. - Project Context Awareness: Loads prior approved design variants, DESIGN.md, and recent design docs so new variants stay consistent with your design system. - Use Case: You describe a new dashboard layout but haven't seen what it could look like. Invoke the skill to generate several visual directions, compare them, pick a winner, and iterate until approved. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to explore design variants for the feature you are building and show you the options on a comparison board.

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate multiple UI design variants at once?▼

Invoke the design-shotgun skill with a request like "explore design variants" or "show me design options". It spawns parallel AI agents to produce several design directions, then opens a comparison board so you can review them side by side.

What is a design comparison board for AI-generated variants?▼

A comparison board is a generated artifact that displays all design variants together for visual review. The skill opens it after generation so you can give structured feedback on each option and select a direction to iterate on.

Does design-shotgun use my existing design system?▼

Yes. The skill loads your project's DESIGN.md, prior approved design variants, and recent design docs through gbrain context queries, so generated variants stay consistent with established patterns and previously approved work.

When should I use design-shotgun instead of a design review?▼

Use design-shotgun before implementation, when you haven't seen what a UI feature could look like and want to explore directions. Use a design review skill after implementation to polish and critique an existing interface.

Can design-shotgun run in headless or CI sessions?▼

It detects the session kind in its preamble. In headless sessions it blocks on interactive questions, and in spawned sessions it auto-chooses recommended options and reports results as prose instead of prompting.
