Design Handoff
Skill ActiveGenerate developer handoff specs from a design. Use when a design is ready for engineering and needs a spec sheet covering layout, design tokens, component props, interaction states, responsive breakpoints, edge cases, and animation details.
To streamline the process of translating design into actionable developer specifications, ensuring clarity and completeness for engineering teams.
Features
- Generate visual specifications (measurements, tokens, breakpoints)
- Generate interaction specifications (clicks, states, animations)
- Generate content specifications (limits, truncation, states)
- Detail edge cases and accessibility notes
- Output structured markdown specification
Use Cases
- Use when a design is ready for engineering handoff.
- Use when needing to document component props, interaction states, and responsive behavior.
- Use when converting Figma designs or descriptions into detailed spec sheets.
- Use to ensure all states (loading, error, empty) are clearly defined for developers.
Non-Goals
- Creating the design itself.
- Writing the actual code based on the spec.
- Managing the project tracking or ticketing system (though it can link to them).
