-# Step 12: UX Consistency Patterns
-
-## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
-
-- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
-
-- 📖 CRITICAL: ALWAYS read the complete step file before taking any action - partial understanding leads to incomplete decisions
-- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure the entire file is read and understood before proceeding
-- ✅ ALWAYS treat this as collaborative discovery between UX facilitator and stakeholder
-- 📋 YOU ARE A UX FACILITATOR, not a content generator
-- 💬 FOCUS on establishing consistency patterns for common UX situations
-- 🎯 COLLABORATIVE pattern definition, not assumption-based design
-- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT In your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
-
-## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
-
-- 🎯 Show your analysis before taking any action
-- ⚠️ Present A/P/C menu after generating UX patterns content
-- 💾 ONLY save when user chooses C (Continue)
-- 📖 Update output file frontmatter, adding this step to the end of the list of stepsCompleted.
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until C is selected
-
-## COLLABORATION MENUS (A/P/C):
-
-This step will generate content and present choices:
-
-- **A (Advanced Elicitation)**: Use discovery protocols to develop deeper pattern insights
-- **P (Party Mode)**: Bring multiple perspectives to define UX patterns
-- **C (Continue)**: Save the content to the document and proceed to next step
-
-## PROTOCOL INTEGRATION:
-
-- When 'A' selected: Execute {project-root}/_bmad/core/workflows/advanced-elicitation/workflow.xml
-- When 'P' selected: Execute {project-root}/_bmad/core/workflows/party-mode/workflow.md
-- PROTOCOLS always return to this step's A/P/C menu
-- User accepts/rejects protocol changes before proceeding
-
-## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
-
-- Current document and frontmatter from previous steps are available
-- Component strategy from step 11 informs pattern decisions
-- User journeys from step 10 identify common pattern needs
-- Focus on consistency patterns for common UX situations
-
-## YOUR TASK:
-
-Establish UX consistency patterns for common situations like buttons, forms, navigation, and feedback.
-
-## UX PATTERNS SEQUENCE:
-
-### 1. Identify Pattern Categories
-
-Determine which patterns need definition for your product:
-"Let's establish consistency patterns for how {{project_name}} behaves in common situations.
-
-**Pattern Categories to Define:**
-
-- Button hierarchy and actions
-- Feedback patterns (success, error, warning, info)
-- Form patterns and validation
-- Navigation patterns
-- Modal and overlay patterns
-- Empty states and loading states
-- Search and filtering patterns
-
-Which categories are most critical for your product? We can go through each thoroughly or focus on the most important ones."
-
-### 2. Define Critical Patterns First
-
-Focus on patterns most relevant to your product:
-
-**For [Critical Pattern Category]:**
-"**[Pattern Type] Patterns:**
-What should users see/do when they need to [pattern action]?
-
-**Considerations:**
-
-- Visual hierarchy (primary vs. secondary actions)
-- Feedback mechanisms
-- Error recovery
-- Accessibility requirements
-- Mobile vs. desktop considerations
-
-**Examples:**
-
-- [Example 1 for this pattern type]
-- [Example 2 for this pattern type]
-
-How should {{project_name}} handle [pattern type] interactions?"
-
-### 3. Establish Pattern Guidelines
-
-Document specific design decisions:
-
-**Pattern Guidelines Template:**
-
-```markdown
-### [Pattern Type]
-
-**When to Use:** [Clear usage guidelines]
-**Visual Design:** [How it should look]
-**Behavior:** [How it should interact]
-**Accessibility:** [A11y requirements]
-**Mobile Considerations:** [Mobile-specific needs]
-**Variants:** [Different states or styles if applicable]
-```
-
-### 4. Design System Integration
-
-Ensure patterns work with chosen design system:
-"**Integration with [Design System]:**
-
-- How do these patterns complement our design system components?
-- What customizations are needed?
-- How do we maintain consistency while meeting unique needs?
-
-**Custom Pattern Rules:**
-
-- [Custom rule 1]
-- [Custom rule 2]
-- [Custom rule 3]"
-
-### 5. Create Pattern Documentation
-
-Generate comprehensive pattern library:
-
-**Pattern Library Structure:**
-
-- Clear usage guidelines for each pattern
-- Visual examples and specifications
-- Implementation notes for developers
-- Accessibility checklists
-- Mobile-first considerations
-
-### 6. Generate UX Patterns Content
-
-Prepare the content to append to the document:
-
-#### Content Structure:
-
-When saving to document, append these Level 2 and Level 3 sections:
-
-```markdown
-## UX Consistency Patterns
-
-### Button Hierarchy
-
-[Button hierarchy patterns based on conversation]
-
-### Feedback Patterns
-
-[Feedback patterns based on conversation]
-
-### Form Patterns
-
-[Form patterns based on conversation]
-
-### Navigation Patterns
-
-[Navigation patterns based on conversation]
-
-### Additional Patterns
-
-[Additional patterns based on conversation]
-```
-
-### 7. Present Content and Menu
-
-Show the generated UX patterns content and present choices:
-"I've established UX consistency patterns for {{project_name}}. These patterns ensure users have a consistent, predictable experience across all interactions.
-
-**Here's what I'll add to the document:**
-
-[Show the complete markdown content from step 6]
-
-**What would you like to do?**
-[A] Advanced Elicitation - Let's refine our UX patterns
-[P] Party Mode - Bring different perspectives on consistency patterns
-[C] Continue - Save this to the document and move to responsive design
-
-### 8. Handle Menu Selection
-
-#### If 'A' (Advanced Elicitation):
-
-- Execute {project-root}/_bmad/core/workflows/advanced-elicitation/workflow.xml with the current UX patterns content
-- Process the enhanced pattern insights that come back
-- Ask user: "Accept these improvements to the UX patterns? (y/n)"
-- If yes: Update content with improvements, then return to A/P/C menu
-- If no: Keep original content, then return to A/P/C menu
-
-#### If 'P' (Party Mode):
-
-- Execute {project-root}/_bmad/core/workflows/party-mode/workflow.md with the current UX patterns
-- Process the collaborative pattern insights that come back
-- Ask user: "Accept these changes to the UX patterns? (y/n)"
-- If yes: Update content with improvements, then return to A/P/C menu
-- If no: Keep original content, then return to A/P/C menu
-
-#### If 'C' (Continue):
-
-- Append the final content to `{planning_artifacts}/ux-design-specification.md`
-- Update frontmatter: append step to end of stepsCompleted array
-- Load `./step-13-responsive-accessibility.md`
-
-## APPEND TO DOCUMENT:
-
-When user selects 'C', append the content directly to the document using the structure from step 6.
-
-## SUCCESS METRICS:
-
-✅ Critical pattern categories identified and prioritized
-✅ Consistency patterns clearly defined and documented
-✅ Patterns integrated with chosen design system
-✅ Accessibility considerations included for all patterns
-✅ Mobile-first approach incorporated
-✅ A/P/C menu presented and handled correctly
-✅ Content properly appended to document when C selected
-
-## FAILURE MODES:
-
-❌ Not identifying the most critical pattern categories
-❌ Patterns too generic or not actionable
-❌ Missing accessibility considerations
-❌ Patterns not aligned with design system
-❌ Not considering mobile differences
-❌ Not presenting A/P/C menu after content generation
-❌ Appending content without user selecting 'C'
-
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Reading only partial step file - leads to incomplete understanding and poor decisions
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Proceeding with 'C' without fully reading and understanding the next step file
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Making decisions without complete understanding of step requirements and protocols
-
-## NEXT STEP:
-
-After user selects 'C' and content is saved to document, load `./step-13-responsive-accessibility.md` to define responsive design and accessibility strategy.
-
-Remember: Do NOT proceed to step-13 until user explicitly selects 'C' from the A/P/C menu and content is saved!
