Workflow

1. Gather Source Materials

Read in parallel:

• specs/design/pages.yaml — Component structure, actions, data sources
• specs/design/*.pen — Detailed design via Pencil MCP tools
• specs/testcases/*.md — User journeys and expected behaviors

2. Determine Scope

Default: Generate specs for ALL pages in pages.yaml

Selective: If user specifies pages, generate only for those:

"生成 home 和 post-detail 页面的 UX spec"
→ Generate only for pages: [home, post-detail]

3. Generate UX Spec Files

Create the directory structure and write files:

1. README.md — Overview document with index and summary
2. global/ — Shared component interactions
3. components/ — Reusable component specs grouped by category
4. pages/ — One YAML file per page
5. flows/ — User journeys grouped by category
6. forms/ — Form interaction specs
7. state/ — State management and error handling

4. Report Completion

List generated files and any placeholders due to missing information.

    message: "操作成功"
  - action: update_field
    field: like_count

Reading .pen Files

Use Pencil MCP tools to extract component details:

mcp__pencil__batch_get(
  filePath: "specs/design/basic.pen",
  patterns: [{ reusable: true }],
  readDepth: 2
)

Extract from .pen files:

• Component hierarchy and nesting
• Interactive elements (buttons, inputs, links)
• Style states (hover, active, disabled)
• Layout relationships

Validation Checklist

Before completing, verify:

1. README.md complete — Overview lists all components, pages, flows, forms with links
2. Components categorized — Reusable components grouped by type in components/{category}/
3. All pages covered — Every page in pages.yaml has a corresponding file in pages/
4. Flows categorized — User flows grouped by type in appropriate subdirectories
5. API endpoints defined — Every data mutation has an api_call
6. Error states handled — Loading, success, and error states in state/
7. Placeholders listed — Missing items noted in README.md TODO section
