+ # Design Iteration Template
2
+
3
+ Template for structured feedback when refining a design. Use this for major redesigns or when multiple aspects need adjustment.
4
+
5
+ **When to use:**
6
+ - User requests significant changes to DESIGN.md
7
+ - Multiple feedback points need to be captured
8
+ - Context from previous iteration should be preserved
9
+
10
+ **When NOT to use:**
11
+ - Single small tweak (edit DESIGN.md directly)
12
+ - Typo or value correction (edit DESIGN.md directly)

+ ## Iteration Prompt Structure
17
+
18
+ When spawning ms-designer for a redesign, assemble this context:
19

45
+
46

63
+
64
+ This is the ONE thing that determines if this iteration succeeds.
65

78
+ ## Example Usage
79
+
80
+ ### Example 1: Color Refinement
81
+
82
+ ```markdown
83
+ <iteration_context>
84
+ Product: Analytics Dashboard
85
+ Phase: 3: User Dashboard
86
+ Iteration: v2 (previous: v1)
87
+ </iteration_context>
88
+
89
+ <previous_design>
90
+ Visual Identity:
91
+ Professional analytics dashboard with dark mode. Deep navy background (#0a0f1a) with amber accent (#F59E0B).
92
+
93
+ Design System Colors:
94
+ - Primary: #0a0f1a
95
+ - Secondary: #1a1f2e
96
+ - Text: #ffffff
97
+ - Accent: #F59E0B
98
+ </previous_design>
99
+
100
+ <feedback_on_previous>
101
+ ## What Worked Well (KEEP)
102
+
103
+ - Deep navy background (#0a0f1a): Distinctive, not generic black
104
+ - Overall layout structure: Information hierarchy is clear
105
+ - Component spacing (16px gaps): Feels intentional
106
+
107
+ ## What Needs Improvement (FIX)
108
+
109
+ - Amber accent (#F59E0B): Too warm, clashes with navy → Try cooler accent (teal or cyan)
110
+ - Card backgrounds (#1a1f2e): Not enough contrast with primary → Increase lightness
111
+ - Text secondary (#8b95a8): Too muted, hard to read → Brighten to #a0aec0
112
+
113
+ ## New Requirements (ADD)
114
+
115
+ No new requirements - this is refinement only.
116
+ </feedback_on_previous>
117
+
118
+ <specific_focus>
119
+ ## Primary Focus for This Iteration
120
+
121
+ Fix the accent color. The amber feels disconnected from the cool navy palette. Find an accent that energizes without clashing.
122
+ </specific_focus>
123
+
124
+ <constraints>
125
+ ## Constraints
126
+
127
+ - Preserve: Deep navy primary, overall layout structure
128
+ - Budget: Color changes only, no layout modifications
129
+ </constraints>
130
+ ```
131
+
132
+ ### Example 2: Layout Restructure
133
+
134
+ ```markdown
135
+ <iteration_context>
136
+ Product: Task Management App
137
+ Phase: 5: Kanban Board
138
+ Iteration: v3 (previous: v2)
139
+ </iteration_context>
140
+
141
+ <previous_design>
142
+ Screen Layout (Kanban Board):
143
+ +------------------------------------------+
144
+ | [Header] |
145
+ +------------------------------------------+
146
+ | [Col 1] | [Col 2] | [Col 3] | [Col 4] |
147
+ | Card | Card | Card | Card |
148
+ | Card | Card | | |
149
+ +------------------------------------------+
150
+ </previous_design>
151
+
152
+ <feedback_on_previous>
153
+ ## What Worked Well (KEEP)
154
+
155
+ - Card design: Clean, readable, good use of labels
156
+ - Column headers: Clear status indication
157
+ - Drag handles: Obvious affordance
158
+
159
+ ## What Needs Improvement (FIX)
160
+
161
+ - Fixed 4-column layout: Doesn't scale on smaller screens → Make columns scrollable horizontally
162
+ - No column collapse: Too much visual noise → Add ability to collapse columns
163
+ - Cards too tall: Take too much vertical space → Compact mode option
164
+
165
+ ## New Requirements (ADD)
166
+
167
+ - Swimlanes: Group cards by assignee (horizontal rows within columns)
168
+ - Quick add: Inline card creation without modal
169
+ </feedback_on_previous>
170
+
171
+ <specific_focus>
172
+ ## Primary Focus for This Iteration
173
+
174
+ Make the board work on tablet (768px). Current fixed 4-column breaks completely.
175
+ </specific_focus>
176
+
177
+ <constraints>
178
+ ## Constraints
179
+
180
+ - Preserve: Card visual design, drag-drop interaction
181
+ - Budget: Layout changes, no new visual styling
182
+ </constraints>
183
+ ```
184

186
+
187
+ ## Guidelines
188
+
189
+ **Feedback should be:**
190
+ - **Specific:** "Amber accent clashes" not "colors are wrong"
191
+ - **Actionable:** Include direction, not just criticism
192
+ - **Prioritized:** Primary focus identifies the ONE thing
193
+
194
+ **Preserve section is critical:**
195
+ - Explicitly list what must NOT change
196
+ - Prevents accidental regression of working aspects
197
+ - Designer knows boundaries
198
+
199
+ **Primary focus drives success:**
200
+ - If this ONE thing improves, iteration succeeds
201
+ - Keeps designer from getting lost in details
202
+ - Enables focused refinement
203
+
204
+ **After iteration:**
205
+ - Compare v[N] to v[N-1] against feedback
206
+ - Verify "what worked well" was preserved
207
+ - Verify "what needs improvement" was addressed
208
+ - Update design version in DESIGN.md frontmatter

172
+ ## Platform-Specific Notes
173
+
174
+ ### Web (React + Tailwind)
175
+
176
+ **Responsive breakpoints:**
177
+ - Mobile: `< 640px`
178
+ - Tablet: `640px - 1024px`
179
+ - Desktop: `> 1024px`
180
+
181
+ **Touch targets:** Minimum 44x44px for interactive elements
182
+
183
+ **Keyboard navigation:**
184
+ - [Which elements should be focusable]
185
+ - [Focus order/flow]
186
+
187
+ **Accessibility:**
188
+ - Color contrast: WCAG AA (4.5:1 body text, 3:1 large text)
189
+ - Screen reader: [aria labels needed]
190
+
191
+ ### Mobile (Flutter)
192
+
193
+ **iOS considerations:**
194
+ - Follow HIG for [specific patterns]
195
+ - Safe area insets: Respect notch/home indicator
196
+ - Navigation: [pattern - stack, tabs, drawer]
197
+
198
+ **Android considerations:**
199
+ - Follow Material Design 3 for [specific patterns]
200
+ - System bars: [edge-to-edge consideration]
201
+ - Back gesture: [handling]
202
+
203
+ **Shared:**
204
+ - Touch targets: 48x48dp minimum
205
+ - Text sizes: 16sp minimum for body text

+ # Phase 3: User Dashboard - Design Specification
245
+
246
+ **Designed:** 2026-01-19
247
+ **Platform:** Web (React + Tailwind)
248
+ **Aesthetic source:** Codebase analysis + fresh design
249
+
250
+ ## Visual Identity
251
+
252
+ Professional analytics dashboard with approachable data visualization. Clean density inspired by Linear, with generous whitespace that doesn't sacrifice information. Dark mode primary (analysts work long hours), with a distinctive deep navy (`#0a0f1a`) instead of generic black. Amber accent (`#F59E0B`) for energy and warmth.
253
+
254
+ **Design direction:**
255
+ - Overall feel: "Powerful yet approachable"
256
+ - Key differentiator: "Data-dense without feeling cluttered"
257
+ - Inspiration: Linear's information hierarchy, Stripe's professional polish

379
+ <guidelines>
380
+ **This template captures DESIGN, not technical implementation.**
381
+
382
+ The design phase produces:
383
+ - How it should look (visual identity, layouts)
384
+ - How it should behave (states, transitions)
385
+ - How it should feel (UX flows, interactions)
386
+ - What proves it's correct (verification criteria)
387
+
388
+ The design phase does NOT produce:
389
+ - Library choices (that's research)
390
+ - Task breakdown (that's planning)
391
+ - Code architecture (that's execution)
392
+
393
+ **Content should read like:**
394
+ - A design specification a developer can implement
395
+ - "The card has 16px padding, 8px border radius, and a subtle shadow"
396
+ - "On hover, the border brightens from #2a3142 to #3a4152"
397
+ - ASCII wireframes showing exact layout structure
398
+
399
+ **Content should NOT read like:**
400
+ - A technical architecture document
401
+ - A list of npm packages to install
402
+ - Code snippets or implementation details
403
+ - Vague descriptions ("make it look nice")
404
+
405
+ **Quality markers:**
406
+ - Specific color values (hex codes), not "blue" or "primary"
407
+ - Exact spacing values (16px), not "some padding"
408
+ - All component states defined (default, hover, active, disabled)
409
+ - ASCII wireframes with labeled regions
410
+ - Verification criteria that are observable and testable
411
+
412
+ **After creation:**
413
+ - File lives in phase directory: `.planning/phases/XX-name/{phase}-DESIGN.md`
414
+ - Research phase adds technical details (which libraries enable this design)
415
+ - Planning phase creates tasks that reference design specs
416
+ - Execute phase implements to match design exactly
