Specifies interaction choices, action scope, reversibility, recovery, and reachable states. Use when asked to "design the flow", "should delete be undoable", "choose the control", or "review this product decision".

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Product Design

Decide what the interface should do, then route who builds and verifies it: pick the right interaction, make scope and consequence clear, cover reality beyond the happy path.

- **IS:** the decision layer. From a brief, spec, mockup, intent, or existing UI: choose the interaction and control, name the object, scope, and consequence of each action, settle reversibility and the safeguard it implies, enumerate every reachable state, set resilience expectations, and require accessibility as task completion. It decides, then routes build, verification, and wording out.
- **IS NOT:**
  - whether a feature deserves investment or fits the product: out of scope; state it as an open product question.
  - building or styling UI, visual direction, palettes, type: `ui-design`.
  - auditing the built result (rendered quality, a11y markup, keyboard, layout, performance, React or Next code-level UX with a ship verdict): `ui-design` Audit mode.
  - copy wording, persuasion, or AI-ism removal: `ghostwriter`.
  - motion, gesture physics, or deep typography: `ui-animation`, `typography-audit`.
  - whether an agentic feature earns trust: `ax-audit`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mblode/agent-skills/product-design@sha256:1f5b964df7a7ff4a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261003.f73d8a5, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
