About plan-design-review

The `plan-design-review` skill is an AI-powered tool designed to evaluate design plans in a structured and interactive way, simulating the perspective of both a CEO and an engineering review. It addresses the challenge of assessing UI/UX components before implementation, providing designers and product teams with actionable feedback to improve their plans. By offering a systematic evaluation, it helps reduce the risk of design flaws and ensures that projects meet high standards before they are developed or deployed.

The skill rates each design dimension on a scale from 0 to 10 and provides explanations for what would make each dimension reach a perfect score. Additionally, it suggests concrete modifications to bring the design plan closer to an ideal state. It operates primarily in 'plan mode', focusing on conceptual design rather than live site audits (for which a separate review tool is recommended). The skill also includes proactive behavior: when a user presents a plan containing UI/UX elements, it can suggest performing a review even if the user has not explicitly requested it, provided the user has not opted out of proactive suggestions.

Typical use cases include design plan reviews, pre-implementation critique sessions, and iterative refinement of UI/UX strategies. Target users are designers, product managers, and development leads who want a structured assessment of design plans before committing resources to implementation. This skill is particularly valuable for teams seeking objective, measurable feedback on their design work and for organizations emphasizing high-quality design standards across projects.
