UI Design System

Data-driven design intelligence: curated palettes, font pairings, product recommendations, UX guidelines, accessibility standards, and quality checklists.

When to Use

Creating or reviewing UI components
Setting up a design system for a new project
Checking WCAG accessibility compliance
Selecting color palettes, typography, or UI styles
Choosing chart types for data visualization
Responsive design review

Process

Understand requirements — what product type? audience? style direction?
Look up design data — read references/data-lookup.md for how to query:
- Color palette → assets/colors.csv (161 WCAG-verified palettes by product type)
- Font pairing → assets/typography.csv (73 pairings with Google Fonts URLs)
- Product direction → assets/products.csv (161 types with style/dashboard/color recs)
- UX check → assets/ux-guidelines.csv (99 Do/Don't rules with severity)
- Chart type → assets/charts.csv (25 types with accessibility grades)
Apply design rules — load from references/ based on task:
- Visual design → references/design-patterns.md
- Accessibility → references/accessibility-standards.md
- Quality check → references/quality-checklist.md
Validate — run quality-checklist.md before handoff

Data Assets (NEW — v2.0)

File	Rows	Content
`assets/colors.csv`	160	WCAG-verified palettes by product type (hex values)
`assets/typography.csv`	73	Font pairings with mood, Google Fonts URLs, Tailwind config
`assets/products.csv`	161	Product type → style, landing pattern, dashboard, color focus
`assets/ux-guidelines.csv`	98	Do/Don't pairs with category + severity
`assets/charts.csv`	25	Data type → best chart, accessibility grade, library

See references/data-lookup.md for lookup patterns and examples.

Gotchas

Aesthetic over accessibility: beautiful design that fails WCAG → check contrast (4.5:1 normal, 3:1 large) before shipping
Desktop-first design: designing for large screens then cramming into mobile → start from 320px
Color-only communication: red/green for status → pair with icon or text label
Ignoring the data: guessing palette when colors.csv has WCAG-verified values → always look up first
Generic product assumptions: all SaaS looks the same → check products.csv for product-specific recommendations

Workflow Integration

Loaded by ui-ux-designer agent during Phase 3 (Build). Also used by developer agent for frontend work.
