UX Coaching

UX Coaching

Review "$ARGUMENTS" through the lens of a senior UX/UI designer. Provide mentorship feedback on usability, visual hierarchy, readability, and adherence to UX principles.

Prerequisites

None — this is a utility skill that can run anytime.

Process

1. Read the target:

   • Read the file, component, or design artifact specified in "$ARGUMENTS"
   • If it's a design artifact (from .metapowers/design/), read the full context
   • If it's code, focus on the UI/UX aspects (layout, interaction, feedback)

2. Read reference material:

   • Read plugins/coaching/shared/ux-laws.md for UX principles
   • Read plugins/coaching/shared/feedback-format.md for output structure

3. Evaluate against UX principles:

   • Fitts's Law: Are important targets appropriately sized and positioned?
   • Hick's Law: Are choices minimized? Is progressive disclosure used?
   • Jakob's Law: Does it follow established conventions?
   • Miller's Law: Is information chunked appropriately?
   • Gestalt principles: Are grouping, proximity, and similarity used effectively?
   • Visual hierarchy: Is importance conveyed through size, color, position, whitespace?
   • Readability/legibility: Line length, contrast, typography, scannability
   • Cognitive load: Is extraneous complexity minimized?
   • Information architecture: Is navigation logical and labeling clear?

4. Write the coaching report to .metapowers/coaching/$ARGUMENTS/ux-review.md following the feedback format.

Output

The UX coaching report written to .metapowers/coaching/$ARGUMENTS/ux-review.md. Present the score and top 3 suggestions to the user.
