# /design-audit: Full Project Design Audit

Run a comprehensive design audit on the current project or a specified path.

## Usage

```

/design-audit # Audit current project

/design-audit /path/to/project # Audit specific project

```

## Flow

- Use `uiux_knowledge_query` with `listFiles: true` to get the full inventory

- Every agent reads its assigned knowledge files (see `knowledge/INDEX.md` for the mapping)

- The evidence base, principles, anti-patterns, and trends files are required reading for ALL agents

2. **Scan project** - Use `uiux_scan_project` to detect framework, styling, component library, theme system

3. **Display profile** - Show the user what was detected, ask for confirmation

4. **Dispatch agents** - Launch all relevant specialist agents in parallel (each reads its knowledge files first):

- `color-analyst` - Color system diagnosis

- `typography-analyst` - Typography system diagnosis

- `layout-analyst` - Layout, spacing, grid analysis

- `component-reviewer` - Component quality and consistency

- `accessibility-auditor` - WCAG compliance check

- `interaction-analyst` - Motion, transitions, feedback

- `psychology-analyst` - Cognitive load, hierarchy, trust

- `visual-style-advisor` - Style direction evaluation

- `platform-advisor` - Platform convention adherence

- `ux-flow-analyst` - Navigation and user flows

- `performance-ux-analyst` - Loading and perceived speed

4. **Aggregate scores** - Use `uiux_score_overall` to calculate weighted total

5. **Generate report** - Full markdown report with:

- Project design profile

- Score card (12 dimensions)

- Top 20 findings ranked by impact

- Detailed per-dimension reports

- Prioritized action plan (quick wins / medium / major)

## Agent dispatch strategy

Launch agents in parallel waves:

**Wave 1** (always): color-analyst, typography-analyst, layout-analyst, accessibility-auditor, component-reviewer

**Wave 2** (always): interaction-analyst, psychology-analyst, visual-style-advisor

**Wave 3** (if applicable): platform-advisor (if mobile/cross-platform), ux-flow-analyst (if has routing), performance-ux-analyst (if has data fetching/images)

## Output

Full audit report saved to `design-audit-report.md` in the project root.

Score card displayed inline for quick overview.

Each finding may cite one or more UX laws inline (for example, `[!] psychology: 12-item nav menu - violates Hick's Law, Choice Overload`). When any finding carries laws, the report ends with a `## Laws of UX Coverage` markdown table summarizing violation counts and worst offenders per law. Agents look up law display names and primary-source citations from `knowledge/laws-of-ux.md` and the `uiux_laws_query` MCP tool.
