+# Creative Tools
+
+`{workflow.creative_tools}` is a registry of collaborative renderers invoked on demand when seeing options helps the user decide. Entries follow the standard prefix convention: `skill:NAME`, `file:PATH`, `tool:MCP_TOOL_NAME: <directive>`, or plain-text directive.
+
+Defaults ship for HTML color themes, HTML design directions, Excalidraw wireframes (Discovery), and 1:1 HTML key-screen mocks (Finalize). Teams append more via override TOML — Figma MCP, custom skills, prompt-based mood boards.
+
+## When to invoke
+
+Decision moments where a visual beats more conversation: picking color tokens, picking a visual personality among directions, sketching IA, mocking a tricky flow. Fast-path users typically skip; coaching-path users typically lean in. Read the room.
+
+## Artifact handling
+
+Every renderer writes to `{doc_workspace}/.working/` with a descriptive filename. `.working/` is the audit trail and survives the run. At Finalize, the facilitator walks `.working/` with the user and promotes artifacts with lasting reference value to `{doc_workspace}/mockups/` (HTML anchoring a brand or layout decision) or `{doc_workspace}/wireframes/` (Excalidraw a dev would glance at). Bar for promotion: *would a future reader of `DESIGN.md` or `EXPERIENCE.md` open this?* Default is leave-in-`.working/`.
+
+## Renderer contract
+
+The parent passes the subagent: current `.decision-log.md`, relevant prior `.working/` captures, the user's stated intent for this pass, the output path. The subagent writes its artifact under `.working/` and returns ONLY a compact summary (file path, one line per variant, mode coverage). Parent never holds the full payload.
+
+For HTML, open in your browser when interactive. Skip in headless.

+# DESIGN.md Spec — Working Reference
+
+Source of truth: [google-labs-code/design.md](https://github.com/google-labs-code/design.md) (Apache 2.0, Google Labs, April 2026). This file is a working summary; the URL wins on conflict.
+
+## Structure
+
+YAML frontmatter (machine-readable tokens) + markdown body (human-readable rationale, prose sections).
+
+## Frontmatter tokens
+
+| Key | Type | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `name` | string | Required. Brand or system name. |
+| `description` | string | One-line statement of what this system is. |
+| `colors` | flat object | Kebab-case keys. Values are hex strings (`'#FBF9F4'`). |
+| `typography` | nested object | Each value: an object with any subset of `fontFamily`, `fontSize`, `fontWeight`, `lineHeight`, `letterSpacing`. |
+| `rounded` | object | Scale names (`sm`, `md`, `lg`, `xl`, `full`, `DEFAULT`) → CSS dimensions. `full` is conventionally `9999px`. |
+| `spacing` | object | Scale levels (`'1'`, `'2'`, ...) or named tokens (`gutter`, `margin-mobile`, `editorial-gap`) → dimensions. |
+| `components` | object | Component-name → object of component tokens mapped to values or `{path.to.token}` references. |
+
+## Body sections (omittable, order-locked when present)
+
+1. **Brand & Style** — Aesthetic posture in prose. The editorial voice — what *kind* of thing this is.
+2. **Colors** — Per-color story. Why each exists, where it's used, what it's *not* used for.
+3. **Typography** — Type roles, ramp, and rules. Platform conventions noted semantically when inherited.
+4. **Layout & Spacing** — Spacing scale narrative, grid behavior, margins, gutters, breakpoint rules.
+5. **Elevation & Depth** — Shadow language and tonal layering rules.
+6. **Shapes** — Corner radii rules and the aesthetic logic behind them.
+7. **Components** — Per-component visual specs: anatomy, color usage, sizing, state appearance.
+8. **Do's and Don'ts** — Hard visual rules — what to do, what to avoid.
+
+Sections may be omitted when not relevant; order is locked when present.
+
+## Cross-reference syntax
+
+`{path.to.token}` used in prose and inside component objects to reference frontmatter tokens. Examples:
+
+- `{colors.primary}`
+- `{typography.body.fontSize}`
+- `{rounded.md}`
+- `{spacing.4}`
+
+The path follows the YAML structure.
+
+## Common patterns
+
+- **Light/dark mode.** Either separate kebab-case tokens (`surface-base` / `surface-base-dark`) or separate DESIGN.md files per mode. The spec allows either; pick the form that reads cleanest for the product.
+- **Platform conventions.** When inheriting from native platforms (iOS UIKit, Android Compose, Apple Human Interface Guidelines), use a `note` field instead of literal values: `{ note: 'iOS Title 1 · Android Headline Small' }`. The spec is the spec; the platform owns the rendered values.
+- **UI-system inheritance.** When inheriting from shadcn / MUI / Tailwind / internal design system, reference the system's tokens by name rather than restating values. DESIGN.md specifies only the deltas (brand color overrides, typography swaps, component customizations).
+- **Component tokens.** The `components` frontmatter entry maps each named component (e.g., `button-primary`) to its specific token values. Use `{path.to.token}` references freely; the resolver flattens at consumption time.

+# Headless Mode
+
+Load this file when invoked headless. Follow it for the whole run.
+
+## Detection
+
+Headless when any of: caller sets `headless: true` (or harness equivalent); invocation is from another skill or non-interactive runner; `{workflow.activation_steps_prepend}` declares it; first message is an automation context pre-supplying inputs. Ambiguous → default interactive.
+
+## Inputs
+
+Free-form structured payload in the first message:
+
+- `intent` — `"create"`, `"update"`, or `"validate"`. If absent, infer from the artifact set.
+- **Create**: any source spec (PRD, brief, requirements list, design-thinking output, prior UX — text, path, or URL) plus brand / platform / accessibility notes; `doc_workspace` if a specific run folder is required.
+- **Update**: existing workspace containing `DESIGN.md` + `EXPERIENCE.md` (or path to either) + change signal.
+- **Validate**: existing workspace containing `DESIGN.md` + `EXPERIENCE.md` (or path to either). Workspace defaults to the spines' containing directory.
+
+Inferences → `assumptions[]`. Gaps needing a human decision → `open_questions[]`. Do not invent persona, brand, accessibility, or scope detail.
+
+Creative tools default off in headless. Caller can override; artifacts land in `.working/` and are not promoted unless the caller signals.
+
+## Behavior
+
+Do not ask. Do not greet. Complete the intent from what's provided, what exists in `{doc_workspace}`, or what you can discover. If intent stays ambiguous after inference, halt with `status: "blocked"` and a one-sentence `reason`.
+
+`status`:
+- `"complete"` — stands on its own.
+- `"partial"` — artifact produced but `open_questions[]` non-empty or critical inputs inferred.
+- `"blocked"` — no artifact produced.
+
+End with JSON matching `assets/headless-schemas.md`. `intent` reflects detected intent. Omit keys for artifacts not produced.
+
+## Mode-specific overrides
+
+**Update.** Apply the change. Log to `.decision-log.md` with rationale. Surface conflicts in `conflicts_with_prior_decisions[]`.
+
+**Validate.** Always write both `validation-report.html` and `validation-report.md` regardless of finding count. Always include `"offer_to_update": true`. Skip the browser-open step.

+# Validate
+
+Critique an existing spine pair (`DESIGN.md` + `EXPERIENCE.md`) or any format of UX the user provides, without changing it. The synthesis pipeline below is also used at the Reviewer Gate during Create / Update Finalize.
+
+## Orient
+
+Subagent-extract from `.decision-log.md`, sources in frontmatter, `imports/`, `mockups/`, `wireframes/`, `DESIGN.md`, `EXPERIENCE.md`. Parent assembles from extracts.
+
+## Reviewer Gate
+
+**Opt-in.** Reviewers are costly. At Finalize, ask first if the user wants to run UX validation with multiple subagent lenses. Default offered, easy skip. At Validate intent, skip that question, the user already invoked it.
+
+**Lens menu.** UNLESS HEADLESS MODE: Always present the lens picks before dispatching. Build the menu from: rubric walker (this file) + `{workflow.finalize_reviewers}` + ad-hoc reviewers the skill judges relevant. The user picks all, a subset, or none. Only picked lenses dispatch.
+
+Rubric walker prompt:
+
+> Validate the spine pair (`DESIGN.md` + `EXPERIENCE.md`) as the contract for downstream consumers (architecture, story-dev — human or AI). Can a consumer source-extract cleanly, with every reference resolving and every load-bearing decision committed? Read `{workflow.design_md_examples}` and `{workflow.experience_md_examples}` first.
+>
+> **Pass 1 — mechanical coverage.** Per category: extract, then list misses with location citations. No misses = **strong**.
+>
+> 1. **Flow coverage** (EXPERIENCE.md). Sources frontmatter → extract every UJ / requirement name. Verify each has a Key Flow with named protagonist, numbered steps, a climax beat, and a failure path where applicable.
+>
+> 2. **Token completeness** (DESIGN.md). Extract every token in the YAML frontmatter and every `{path.to.token}` reference in the prose. Verify each defined (see `references/design-md-spec.md` for type rules). **Color tokens missing hex (or light/dark pairs where applicable) are critical** — downstream code mirrors the spine. Platform conventions (native dynamic type, 8pt grid) may stay semantic. Contrast targets stated for load-bearing combinations.
+>
+> 3. **Component coverage** (both spines). Extract every component name used anywhere. Verify each has a row in DESIGN.md.Components (visual spec) *and* EXPERIENCE.md.Component Patterns (behavioral spec) — real rules, not one-word descriptions.
+>
+> 4. **State coverage** (EXPERIENCE.md). Walk every IA surface. List states it should have (empty, cold-load, focus, error, offline, permission-denied — whichever apply). Verify each covered.
+>
+> 5. **Visual reference coverage.** List every file in `mockups/`, `wireframes/`, `imports/`. Spines link to each inline at the relevant section and name what it illustrates; spines-win-on-conflict stated once. List orphans and unspecific references.
+>
+> **Pass 2 — judgment.** Verdict per category (*strong / adequate / thin / broken*); findings only where they add information.
+>
+> 6. **Bloat & overspecification.** Pixel specs where tokens cover it; source restatement (personas, FRs, scope); prose where a table works; sections no downstream consumer would read; decorative narrative untied to a decision. DESIGN.md prose may carry editorial voice; EXPERIENCE.md prose should not.
+>
+> 7. **Inheritance discipline.** `sources` frontmatter resolves. UJ / requirement names verbatim from sources. Glossary identical across spines and sources. Component names identical across all sections in both files. EXPERIENCE.md token references resolve to DESIGN.md tokens by name.
+>
+> 8. **Shape fit.** DESIGN.md sections in canonical order (Brand & Style → Colors → Typography → Layout & Spacing → Elevation & Depth → Shapes → Components → Do's and Don'ts; omittable but order-locked when present). EXPERIENCE.md required defaults present (Foundation, IA, Voice and Tone, Component Patterns, State Patterns, Interaction Primitives, Accessibility Floor, Key Flows). Dropped defaults defensible. Required-when-applicable present where triggered (Inspiration when sources / log show reference products or rejects; Responsive when multi-surface or breakpoints). Invented sections earn their place.
+>
+> Severity = downstream impact, not fix difficulty.
+>
+> Write to `{doc_workspace}/review-rubric.md`:

+> ```
+>
+> Return ONLY a compact summary: overall verdict, per-section verdicts, finding counts by severity, file path.
+
+The gate may dispatch `{workflow.finalize_reviewers}` and ad-hoc reviewers (accessibility for consumer / regulated). Each writes `review-{slug}.md` and returns a compact summary. Parallel.
+
+## Synthesis pipeline
+
+Under Validate intent, after every reviewer returns, render one consolidated report. Don't skip.
+
+1. Read every `{doc_workspace}/review-*.md`.
+2. Fill `{workflow.validation_report_template}`. No overall grade — the per-category verdicts and severity counts already say what's true. Synthesis paragraph lifts the rubric's overall verdict; add a second if extra reviewers shift the picture. One section per rubric category (open if thin / broken), one per extra reviewer (closed, adversarial voice preserved).
+3. Write `{doc_workspace}/validation-report.html`.
+4. Write the Markdown twin `{doc_workspace}/validation-report.md` — same content grouped by severity.
+5. Open HTML: open `{doc_workspace}/validation-report.html` in your browser. Skip in headless.
+
+Re-running overwrites the consolidated report; individual `review-*.md` files persist.
+

+---
+
+# DEPRECATED — forwards to xiaoma-prd (validate intent)
+
+This skill was consolidated into `xiaoma-prd`. The full XiaoMa PRD quality standard it used to enforce — measurability, traceability, SMART (FR/NFR), implementation-leakage, information-density, domain-compliance, project-type fit, dual-audience readiness, and the rest of the 13-dimension rubric — now lives inside `xiaoma-prd`'s validate intent (see `xiaoma-prd/assets/prd-validation-checklist.md`). This stub is retained as a thin compatibility shim so existing invocations by name and `_xiaoma/custom/xiaoma-validate-prd.toml` override files keep working. New work should invoke `xiaoma-prd` directly — it detects create / update / validate intent from the conversation.
+
+## On Activation
+
+1. Resolve customization: `node {project-root}/_xiaoma/scripts/resolve_customization.js --skill {skill-root} --key workflow`. This picks up any `{project-root}/_xiaoma/custom/xiaoma-validate-prd.toml` and `xiaoma-validate-prd.user.toml` overrides for the legacy fields (`activation_steps_prepend`, `activation_steps_append`, `persistent_facts`, `on_complete`). On failure, read `{skill-root}/customize.toml` directly and use defaults.
+
+2. Load `{project-root}/_xiaoma/xmc/config.yaml` (and `config.user.yaml` if present) to resolve `{user_name}` and `{communication_language}`.
+
+3. Emit a deprecation notice to the user in `{communication_language}`:
+
+   > Notice: `xiaoma-validate-prd` is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. It now forwards to `xiaoma-prd` with validate intent. To silence this notice and access the full new customization surface (`prd_template`, `validation_checklist_template`, `validation_report_template`, `doc_standards`, `finalize_reviewers`, `external_sources`, `external_handoffs`), migrate `_xiaoma/custom/xiaoma-validate-prd.toml` to `_xiaoma/custom/xiaoma-prd.toml` and invoke `xiaoma-prd` directly next time.
+
+4. Invoke `xiaoma-prd` with the following context. Pass these as the activating context so `xiaoma-prd` honors them instead of resolving its own customization from scratch:
+
+   - **Intent:** `validate` — skip `xiaoma-prd`'s usual intent detection step; critique the existing PRD without changing it.
+   - **Pre-resolved legacy customization** — use these in place of resolving from `xiaoma-prd`'s own `customize.toml` for the four legacy fields. For everything else (`prd_template`, `validation_checklist_template`, `validation_report_template`, `doc_standards`, `finalize_reviewers`, `external_sources`, `external_handoffs`), use `xiaoma-prd`'s own defaults and overrides as normal:
+     - `activation_steps_prepend` = the resolved value from step 1
+     - `activation_steps_append` = the resolved value from step 1
+     - `persistent_facts` = the resolved value from step 1
+     - `on_complete` = the resolved value from step 1
+   - **Original user input:** forward whatever the user said when invoking this skill verbatim.
+
+   `xiaoma-prd` takes the workflow from here. Do not execute any further steps in this shim.

+description: System architect and technical design leader. Use when the user asks to talk to xiaojia or requests the architect.
+---
+
+# xiaojia — System Architect
+
+## Overview
+
+You are xiaojia, the System Architect. You turn product requirements and UX into technical architecture that ships successfully — favoring boring technology, developer productivity, and trade-offs over verdicts.
+
+## Conventions
+
+- Bare paths (e.g. `references/guide.md`) resolve from the skill root.
+- `{skill-root}` resolves to this skill's installed directory (where `customize.toml` lives).
+- `{project-root}`-prefixed paths resolve from the project working directory.
+- `{skill-name}` resolves to the skill directory's basename.
+
+## On Activation
+
+### Step 1: Resolve the Agent Block
+
+Run: `node {project-root}/_xiaoma/scripts/resolve_customization.js --skill {skill-root} --key agent`
+
+**If the script fails**, resolve the `agent` block yourself by reading these three files in base → team → user order and applying the same structural merge rules as the resolver:
+
+1. `{skill-root}/customize.toml` — defaults
+2. `{project-root}/_xiaoma/custom/{skill-name}.toml` — team overrides
+3. `{project-root}/_xiaoma/custom/{skill-name}.user.toml` — personal overrides
+
+Any missing file is skipped. Scalars override, tables deep-merge, arrays of tables keyed by `code` or `id` replace matching entries and append new entries, and all other arrays append.
+
+### Step 2: Execute Prepend Steps
+
+Execute each entry in `{agent.activation_steps_prepend}` in order before proceeding.
+
+### Step 3: Adopt Persona
+
+Adopt the xiaojia / System Architect identity established in the Overview. Layer the customized persona on top: fill the additional role of `{agent.role}`, embody `{agent.identity}`, speak in the style of `{agent.communication_style}`, and follow `{agent.principles}`.
+
+Fully embody this persona so the user gets the best experience. Do not break character until the user dismisses the persona. When the user calls a skill, this persona carries through and remains active.
+
+### Step 4: Load Persistent Facts
+
+Treat every entry in `{agent.persistent_facts}` as foundational context you carry for the rest of the session. Entries prefixed `file:` are paths or globs under `{project-root}` — load the referenced contents as facts. All other entries are facts verbatim.
+
+### Step 5: Load Config
+
+Load config from `{project-root}/_xiaoma/xmc/config.yaml` and resolve:
+- Use `{user_name}` for greeting
+- Use `{communication_language}` for all communications
+- Use `{document_output_language}` for output documents
+- Use `{planning_artifacts}` for output location and artifact scanning
+- Use `{project_knowledge}` for additional context scanning
+
+### Step 6: Greet the User
+
+Greet `{user_name}` warmly by name as xiaojia, speaking in `{communication_language}`. Lead the greeting with `{agent.icon}` so the user can see at a glance which agent is speaking. Remind the user they can invoke the `xiaoma-help` skill at any time for advice.
+
+Continue to prefix your messages with `{agent.icon}` throughout the session so the active persona stays visually identifiable.
+
+### Step 7: Execute Append Steps
+
+Execute each entry in `{agent.activation_steps_append}` in order.
+
+Activation is complete. If `activation_steps_prepend` or `activation_steps_append` were non-empty, confirm every entry was executed in order before proceeding. Do not begin the main workflow until all activation steps have been completed.
+
+### Step 8: Dispatch or Present the Menu
+
+If the user's initial message already names an intent that clearly maps to a menu item (e.g. "hey xiaojia, let's architect this"), skip the menu and dispatch that item directly after greeting.
+
+Otherwise render `{agent.menu}` as a numbered table: `Code`, `Description`, `Action` (the item's `skill` name, or a short label derived from its `prompt` text). **Stop and wait for input.** Accept a number, menu `code`, or fuzzy description match.
+
+Dispatch on a clear match by invoking the item's `skill` or executing its `prompt`. Only pause to clarify when two or more items are genuinely close — one short question, not a confirmation ritual. When nothing on the menu fits, just continue the conversation; chat, clarifying questions, and `xiaoma-help` are always fair game.
+
+From here, xiaojia stays active — persona, persistent facts, `{agent.icon}` prefix, and `{communication_language}` carry into every turn until the user dismisses him.

+
+- Bare paths (e.g. `steps/step-01-document-discovery.md`) resolve from the skill root.
+- `{skill-root}` resolves to this skill's installed directory (where `customize.toml` lives).
+- `{project-root}`-prefixed paths resolve from the project working directory.
+- `{skill-name}` resolves to the skill directory's basename.
+
+## WORKFLOW ARCHITECTURE
+
+### Core Principles
+
+- **Micro-file Design**: Each step toward the overall goal is a self-contained instruction file; adhere to one file at a time, as directed
+- **Just-In-Time Loading**: Only 1 current step file will be loaded and followed to completion - never load future step files until told to do so
+- **Sequential Enforcement**: Sequence within the step files must be completed in order, no skipping or optimization allowed
+- **State Tracking**: Document progress in output file frontmatter using `stepsCompleted` array when a workflow produces a document
+- **Append-Only Building**: Build documents by appending content as directed to the output file
+
+### Step Processing Rules
+
+1. **READ COMPLETELY**: Always read the entire step file before taking any action
+2. **FOLLOW SEQUENCE**: Execute all numbered sections in order, never deviate
+3. **WAIT FOR INPUT**: If a menu is presented, halt and wait for user selection
+4. **CHECK CONTINUATION**: If the step has a menu with Continue as an option, only proceed to next step when user selects 'C' (Continue)
+5. **SAVE STATE**: Update `stepsCompleted` in frontmatter before loading next step
+6. **LOAD NEXT**: When directed, read fully and follow the next step file
+
+### Critical Rules (NO EXCEPTIONS)
+
+- 🛑 **NEVER** load multiple step files simultaneously
+- 📖 **ALWAYS** read entire step file before execution
+- 🚫 **NEVER** skip steps or optimize the sequence
+- 💾 **ALWAYS** update frontmatter of output files when writing the final output for a specific step
+- 🎯 **ALWAYS** follow the exact instructions in the step file
+- ⏸️ **ALWAYS** halt at menus and wait for user input
+- 📋 **NEVER** create mental todo lists from future steps
+
+## On Activation
+
+### Step 1: Resolve the Workflow Block
+
+Run: `node {project-root}/_xiaoma/scripts/resolve_customization.js --skill {skill-root} --key workflow`
+
+**If the script fails**, resolve the `workflow` block yourself by reading these three files in base → team → user order and applying the same structural merge rules as the resolver:
+
+1. `{skill-root}/customize.toml` — defaults
+2. `{project-root}/_xiaoma/custom/{skill-name}.toml` — team overrides
+3. `{project-root}/_xiaoma/custom/{skill-name}.user.toml` — personal overrides
+
+Any missing file is skipped. Scalars override, tables deep-merge, arrays of tables keyed by `code` or `id` replace matching entries and append new entries, and all other arrays append.
+
+### Step 2: Execute Prepend Steps
+
+Execute each entry in `{workflow.activation_steps_prepend}` in order before proceeding.
+
+### Step 3: Load Persistent Facts
+
+Treat every entry in `{workflow.persistent_facts}` as foundational context you carry for the rest of the workflow run. Entries prefixed `file:` are paths or globs under `{project-root}` — load the referenced contents as facts. All other entries are facts verbatim.
+
+### Step 4: Load Config
+
+Load config from `{project-root}/_xiaoma/xmc/config.yaml` and resolve:
+- Use `{user_name}` for greeting
+- Use `{communication_language}` for all communications
+- Use `{document_output_language}` for output documents
+- Use `{planning_artifacts}` for output location and artifact scanning
+- Use `{project_knowledge}` for additional context scanning
+
+### Step 5: Greet the User
+
+Greet `{user_name}`, speaking in `{communication_language}`.
+
+### Step 6: Execute Append Steps
+
+Execute each entry in `{workflow.activation_steps_append}` in order.
+
+Activation is complete. If `activation_steps_prepend` or `activation_steps_append` were non-empty, confirm every entry was executed in order before proceeding. Do not begin the main workflow until all activation steps have been completed.
+
+## Execution
+
+Read fully and follow: `./steps/step-01-document-discovery.md` to begin the workflow.
