SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Teams with a finished PRD often struggle to decide which screen to build first and how to structure its UI. This Skill reads the PRD, filters user stories down to the single highest-value one, maps it to one of seven proven AI-app UI patterns, and writes a GUIDELINE.md that an AI coding agent can build from directly. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Valuable-story filtering: Applies three gates (core loop, visible AI hand-off, meaningful failure mode) to cut admin CRUD and low-value stories out of the PRD. - Pattern mapping: Maps the surviving story to one of 7 UI patterns (chat + panel, upload dashboard, query-to-chart, wizard, draft-approve-send, queue, real-time streaming) using a decision table. - GUIDELINE.md generation: Writes a single repo-root file containing the pattern choice, visual style, 3-step user flow, T·C·R (Transparency, Control, Recovery) checklist, and an LLM hinge rule. - Use Case: A hackathon team pastes their PRD for an AI syllabus builder; the Skill picks the wizard + inline audit pattern and writes GUIDELINE.md so Claude Code can plan and build the baseline screen. ## Quick Start Paste your PRD or give its file path and ask which screen to build first.

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn a PRD into a UI plan for an AI app?▼

Provide the PRD as a file path, pasted text, or URL. The skill extracts user stories, filters them through three value gates, maps the surviving story to one of seven UI patterns, and writes a GUIDELINE.md at the repo root for an AI coding agent to build from.

What UI patterns does prd-to-screens support?▼

It supports seven patterns: chat with context panel, upload-to-dashboard, query-to-structured-result, wizard with inline audit, draft-approve-send, queue with approval, and real-time streaming. A decision table maps the story's core UX moment to exactly one pattern.

Can I use this skill without a written PRD?▼

No, it requires a PRD as input in some form. If you only have a vague idea with no specification, the skill directs you to the complementary /ui-pattern skill, which starts from an idea rather than a document.

What happens if no user story passes the value filter?▼

The skill asks how to proceed: loosen the recovery-requirement gate to surface one or two stories, send the PRD back to its author as not ready, or choose another option. It never invents a story or picks multiple patterns.

Does the skill generate code or build prompts?▼

No. Its output ends at GUIDELINE.md, which contains the pattern choice, style rules, user flow, and T·C·R checklist. The AI coding agent plans and writes code from that file plus the original PRD; the skill explicitly avoids writing prompts.md or build scripts.
