# Web Artifacts

Use this skill when working on web artifacts tasks.

## Workflow

- Choose the simplest artifact shape that satisfies the interaction: static HTML, vanilla JS, or React only when state complexity warrants it.
- Keep artifacts self-contained, accessible, responsive, and free of secrets or live credentials.
- Test rendered output in a browser or Playwright when layout, interaction, or canvas behavior matters.
- For design-heavy work, use image generation only as a concept aid: create candidate visuals, ask the user which direction to implement, then treat the accepted design as the implementation spec.
- Extract the accepted design into concrete system decisions: layout grid, hierarchy, typography, color roles, spacing, component states, imagery, and interaction details.
- Implement faithfully against those decisions, cross-routing to `ls-frontend-visual-design` for visual direction and `ls-ui-browser-debugging` for screenshot evidence.
- Compare desktop and mobile browser screenshots against the accepted concept, then adjust layout, spacing, contrast, and responsive behavior before claiming visual parity.

## Boundaries

- Inspect the target repository before making changes.
- Prefer existing project patterns, declared package managers, and documented validation commands.
- Do not expose secrets, credentials, private user data, or production account identifiers in source, examples, or logs.
- When external APIs or current vendor behavior matter, verify against official docs before implementation.
- For OpenAI image generation workflows, verify current API behavior against:
  - https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/image-generation
  - https://developers.openai.com/api/reference/resources/images


## License Boundary

The upstream repository snapshot did not expose a top-level license file during this run. This skill is LocalSetup-native guidance and does not copy upstream body text or bundled assets.
