+## How the Design Chief Operates
+
+1. **Understand the user.** Who are we designing for? What problem are we solving?
+2. **Assess the challenge.** New product? Feature? System evolution? Process improvement?
+3. **Route to specialists.** Each phase goes to the agent best equipped for it.
+4. **Maintain quality.** Design quality gates at every transition point.
+5. **Bridge design and dev.** Every design deliverable considers implementation.
+6. **Ensure accessibility.** WCAG compliance is checked at every stage.
+7. **Synthesize outputs.** Combine specialist work into cohesive design outcomes.
+
+The Design Chief ensures every pixel serves the user — and every component serves the system.

+## How the Visual Generator Operates
+
+1. **Understand the brand.** Values, personality, target audience, existing visual language.
+2. **Define visual direction.** Color palette, style references, mood, composition principles.
+3. **Create with purpose.** Every visual asset serves a specific communication goal.
+4. **Be precise in prompts.** AI image generation requires detailed, specific descriptions.
+5. **Ensure consistency.** All assets align with the established visual system.
+6. **Check accessibility.** Contrast, alt text, color independence.
+7. **Deliver at scale.** Assets optimized for every size and platform they'll appear on.
+
+The Visual Generator turns brand strategy into visual reality — one precisely crafted asset at a time.

+# Design Systems/UX Output Quality Checklist
+
+**Checklist ID:** DESIGN-CL-001
+**Referenced by:** tasks/review.md
+**Purpose:** Validate design systems and UX deliverables for quality before delivery to user.
+
+[[LLM: INITIALIZATION INSTRUCTIONS
+
+This checklist validates design systems and UX output specifically.
+
+EXECUTION APPROACH:
+1. For each category, verify every item against the deliverable
+2. Mark items as [x] Pass, [ ] Fail, [N/A] Not Applicable
+3. CRITICAL items block delivery; non-critical items are advisory
+
+CRITICAL items are marked with (CRITICAL) suffix.]]
+
+---
+
+## 1. Accessibility (WCAG 2.1 AA)
+
+- [ ] Color contrast meets minimum 4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text (CRITICAL)
+- [ ] Interactive elements have visible focus states (CRITICAL)
+- [ ] Touch targets are minimum 44x44px on mobile
+- [ ] Content is readable without color as the sole indicator
+- [ ] Screen reader considerations documented (ARIA labels, roles, landmarks)
+- [ ] Keyboard navigation order is logical
+
+## 2. Design System Consistency
+
+- [ ] Design tokens are used correctly — no hardcoded values for colors, spacing, typography (CRITICAL)
+- [ ] Component follows existing design system patterns and naming conventions (CRITICAL)
+- [ ] Spacing uses the defined scale (4px/8px grid or system-specific)
+- [ ] Typography uses system-defined type scale and weights
+- [ ] Iconography is from the approved icon set with consistent sizing
+- [ ] State variations are defined: default, hover, active, disabled, error, loading
+
+## 3. Responsive Design
+
+- [ ] Layout adapts correctly across breakpoints: mobile, tablet, desktop (CRITICAL)
+- [ ] Content hierarchy is maintained across screen sizes
+- [ ] Images and media scale proportionally
+- [ ] Navigation adapts appropriately for touch vs pointer
+- [ ] No horizontal scrolling on standard viewport widths
+
+## 4. UX Flow & Interaction
+
+- [ ] User flow is logical — minimal steps to complete the task
+- [ ] Error states and empty states are designed
+- [ ] Loading states and skeleton screens are specified
+- [ ] Feedback is immediate for user actions (micro-interactions)
+- [ ] Undo/recovery paths exist for destructive actions
+- [ ] Edge cases addressed: long text, missing data, first-time use
+
+## 5. Visual Quality
+
+- [ ] Visual hierarchy is clear — the eye knows where to go first
+- [ ] Alignment and spacing are consistent, not "eyeballed"
+- [ ] Color usage supports the intended mood and brand
+- [ ] White space is used intentionally, not as leftover
+- [ ] Overall composition feels balanced and professional
+
+## 6. Documentation & Handoff
+
+- [ ] Component API/props are documented if applicable
+- [ ] Usage guidelines: when to use, when NOT to use
+- [ ] Design decisions are annotated with rationale
+- [ ] Assets are export-ready or spec'd for development
+

+
+## PASS/FAIL Criteria
+
+**PASS:** All CRITICAL items [x] and fewer than 3 non-critical failures.
+**REVISE:** All CRITICAL items [x] but 3+ non-critical failures.
+**FAIL:** Any CRITICAL item unchecked.
