SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Reviewing screens for usability problems is often ad hoc and inconsistent, causing teams to miss critical issues like poor error handling, weak feedback states, or dark patterns before release. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Heuristic Evaluation: Systematically checks screens against Nielsen's 10 usability heuristics, from system status visibility to error recovery. - Mobile UX Checks: Verifies touch target sizes, safe-area handling, skeleton loading, and gesture affordances specific to mobile interfaces. - Dark Pattern Detection: Flags manipulative patterns such as forced modals, exit-prevention dialogs, and unclear CTA labels. - Use Case: Before shipping a new checkout screen, run the audit to receive a graded score (A+ to F) with critical, major, and minor issues plus concrete code-level recommendations. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to run a UX audit on a specific screen or page, for example by saying: audit the checkout screen for usability issues.

FAQPage Schema
How do I audit a screen for UX issues?▼

Provide the target screen as the audit argument and the skill evaluates it against Nielsen's 10 heuristics, mobile-specific checks, and dark pattern rules. It returns a letter grade with issues grouped by severity and concrete fix recommendations.

What heuristics does a UX audit checklist cover?▼

The audit covers all 10 Nielsen heuristics, including visibility of system status, error prevention, consistency, and error recovery. It also adds mobile checks for touch targets, safe areas, skeleton loading, and dark pattern prevention.

When should I not use a heuristic UX audit?▼

Do not use it for accessibility-only reviews, design token compliance, or copy quality checks, since dedicated skills handle those. It also does not apply to screens that do not exist yet; design them first before auditing.

What output does a UX audit produce?▼

The audit outputs a score from A+ to F, followed by critical issues that block usability, major issues that degrade experience, minor polish items, and specific code change recommendations for each finding.

Does the UX audit check mobile-specific issues?▼

Yes, it verifies minimum 44x44px touch targets, spacing between targets, safe-area padding for notches and home indicators, skeleton screens within 300ms, and swipe gesture affordances.
