UX Toolkit

Professional-grade meta-skill for systematic UX evaluation across 9 domains. Framework-agnostic design works for web, mobile, and desktop applications.

When to Use

Invoke for:

• UI/UX heuristic evaluations (Nielsen + modern methodologies)
• Accessibility (WCAG 2.2) compliance audits
• User flow & friction analysis
• Responsive/cross-device testing
• Interaction & micro-interaction review
• Design system consistency audits
• Content & UX writing review
• AI/ML interface patterns
• Privacy & ethical design review

Sub-Workflows

Quick Start

1. Define Scope

Audit Scope:
├── Screens/Pages: [List target screens]
├── User Flows: [Primary conversion, core tasks]
├── Platform: [Web/Mobile/Desktop/All]
├── WCAG Target: [A/AA/AAA]
└── Priority Focus: [Accessibility/Usability/Performance]

2. Select Audit Type

3. Execute Workflow

Each reference contains:

• Checklist items w/ pass/fail criteria
• Severity + effort classification
• Remediation guidance
• Tool recommendations

4. Generate Report

python3 scripts/generate_report.py --type [full|heuristic|a11y|flow|responsive|interaction] --output report.md --format [md|json|csv]

Severity Classification

Priority Matrix

                    HIGH FREQUENCY
                         │
         ┌───────────────┼───────────────┐
         │               │               │
         │   MAJOR       │   CRITICAL    │
         │   (P1)        │   (P0)        │
         │               │               │
LOW      ├───────────────┼───────────────┤      HIGH
IMPACT   │               │               │      IMPACT
         │   COSMETIC    │   MINOR       │
         │   (P3)        │   (P2)        │
         │               │               │
         └───────────────┼───────────────┘
                         │
                    LOW FREQUENCY

Effort Estimation

Modern Methodologies

Beyond Nielsen's 10 heuristics, this toolkit incorporates:

WCAG Compliance Levels

WCAG 2.2 Status: This toolkit covers all 9 new WCAG 2.2 criteria (October 2023).

Integration Points

Process Overview

1. Scope Definition     → Define screens/flows to audit
2. Reference Loading    → Load relevant sub-workflow(s)
3. Automated Scans      → Run axe-core, Lighthouse
4. Manual Review        → Execute checklists
5. Finding Capture      → Document w/ severity + effort
6. Prioritization       → Apply Impact × Frequency matrix
7. Report Generation    → Compile actionable report

Anti-Patterns to Detect

Competitive Benchmarking

For comprehensive audits, compare key flows against 1-2 competitors:

| Metric | Your Product | Competitor A | Competitor B |
|--------|--------------|--------------|--------------|
| Task completion time | Xs | Xs | Xs |
| Click count | X | X | X |
| Error rate | X% | X% | X% |
| A11y score (Lighthouse) | X | X | X |
