Adds the /ux-design workflow: ingest → research → prototype → evaluate →
handoff → revise → publish → respond. It takes a feature request through
discovery, user research, prototyping, and heuristic evaluation to produce a
validated design handoff artifact (05-handoff.md) — containing component
mapping, interaction specs, state enumeration, data annotations,
persona-specific views, and acceptance criteria — for consumption by the planned
ui-design workflow.

Based on the core content from #102 by @jpuzz0, plus the following enhancements:

  • Bare-name skill install/invocation. Drops the /uxd-workshop: plugin
    namespace in favor of bare skill names, matching what install.sh symlinks and
    the only form that resolves across Claude Code, Cursor, and Gemini.
  • Fixed prototype↔evaluate refine loop. Stages or synthesizes
    reviews/summary.md so iteration works at Quick depth.
  • Explicit, mode-aware, non-lossy artifact mirroring. Mirrors the native
    skill layout (standalone and workspace mode), locates/reads/cleans up the stray
    design-handoff output, and cleans up skill scratch to honor artifact isolation.
  • Evaluation-input production + fail-loud gate. Serves the prototype or
    captures screenshots (required at Standard/Full depth) rather than running the
    eval skills against a Figma link or from memory; adds an S1–S4 →
    Critical/Major/Minor/Cosmetic crosswalk.
  • Provenance contract for 05-handoff.md. Matches prd/design: per-workflow
    origin phase, capture on handoff/revise/respond, render footer on
    publish/respond.
  • ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR} shim (fail loud) for the script-backed skills under
    non-Claude runtimes.

The uxd-workshop skills are a hard dependency; install.sh installs them
AI-agnostically (git clone + bare symlinks) for all supported AI tools.

Supersedes #102.

Adds the ux-design workflow: ingest → research → prototype → evaluate →
handoff → revise → publish → respond. Produces a structured handoff artifact
(05-handoff.md) containing component mapping, interaction specs, state
enumeration, data annotations, persona-specific views, and acceptance criteria
for consumption by the planned ui-design workflow.

Key design decisions:
- /research is a conditional phase (skippable when researcher has data)
- External uxd-workshop skills are optional enrichments, not primary paths,
  to ensure artifact structure is always consistent for downstream phases
- install.sh installs uxd-workshop skills via a single generic path (git
  clone + symlinks) for all AI tools; scoped to ux-design installs only

Based on work from PR #102 by jpuzzo@redhat.com.

Address code review of the ux-design workflow:

- Drop the /uxd-workshop: plugin namespace everywhere in favor of bare
  skill names, matching what install.sh symlinks and the only form that
  resolves across Claude Code, Cursor, and Gemini.
- Fix the prototype->evaluate refine loop: stage or synthesize
  reviews/summary.md so iteration works at Quick depth.
- Make artifact mirroring explicit, mode-aware, and non-lossy; mirror
  rfe-snapshot.md/metadata.json/prototype-summary.yaml/workspace files;
  clean up skill scratch (.artifacts/{ID}/, pipeline-report.html) to
  honor artifact isolation.
- Locate, read back, and clean up the stray design-handoff output.
- Add an evaluation-input production step + fail-loud gate; require
  screenshots at Standard/Full depth for uxd-evaluate-design-heuristics.
- Add an S1-S4 -> Critical/Major/Minor/Cosmetic crosswalk.
- Wire the provenance contract for 05-handoff.md to match prd/design:
  per-workflow ORIGIN_PHASE (ux-design originates in handoff), capture on
  handoff/revise/respond, render footer on publish/respond. Add tests.
- Add the ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR} shim (fail loud) for script-backed skills.

Walkthrough

Adds the ux-design workflow, its commands and phase skills, pinned marketplace-skill installation, workflow-specific provenance handling, repository documentation, and operating guidelines.

Changes

UX Design Workflow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Workflow registration and provenance
AGENTS.md, README.md, _shared/recipes/*, _shared/scripts/*, design/SKILL.md, prd/SKILL.md, triage/SKILL.md
Registers ux-design and its phases. Provenance mappings, origin tracking, metrics, footers, CLI choices, tests, and skill versions now support the workflow.
UXD skill installation
install.sh
Adds pinned UXD repository checkout and plugin-skill linking for Cursor, Claude, and Gemini installations.
Workflow entry points and guidance
ux-design/README.md, ux-design/SKILL.md, ux-design/commands/*, ux-design/guidelines.md, ux-design/skills/controller.md
Adds workflow metadata, commands, phase routing, artifact structure, operating rules, safety requirements, and controller behavior.
Discovery and research phases
ux-design/skills/ingest.md, ux-design/skills/research.md
Adds upstream-context ingestion, research planning, evidence collection, structured artifacts, and researcher confirmation.
Prototype and evaluation phases
ux-design/skills/prototype.md, ux-design/skills/evaluate.md
Adds research-grounded prototyping, artifact mirroring, evaluation iteration, evaluation methods, severity reconciliation, and review gates.
Handoff, publication, and review response
ux-design/skills/{handoff,revise,publish,respond}.md
Adds handoff assembly, revision, draft pull-request publication, and approval-gated review-response workflows.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 19b5c

The workflow currently contains documented and executable contract mismatches that can block valid prototype paths, mishandle evaluation inputs, prevent required capture modes, or omit provenance and version updates. These issues can cause failed or incomplete design handoffs, so the PR is not merge-ready until they are corrected or explicitly accepted by the owners.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 8 functions across 1 files. (1 skipped: 1 unsupported.)

Full details: Ai-Attribution

Explanation

AI use is explicitly documented, and the PR commit range contains Assisted-by trailers naming Claude. The only Co-authored-by trailer names Joe Puzzo (jpuzzo@redhat.com), not an AI tool. No AI-attributed Co-Authored-By trailer was found.

Full details: No-Absolute-Paths-In-Skills

Explanation

PASS. The feature diff contains only two matches for the prohibited path prefixes, at ux-design/skills/ingest.md:123-124. Both are inside the fenced Example conversion block and use the exempt /home/user/ placeholder form. No non-exempt absolute filesystem path appears in the changed workflow markdown files.

Full details: Command-Colon-Notation

Explanation

All 83 files under commands directories have YAML frontmatter with a valid colon-form name, and each prefix matches its parent workflow directory. The eight PR-added ux-design commands use names such as ux-design:evaluate and ux-design:handoff, so no command violates the check.

Full details: No-Orphaned-References

Explanation

No orphaned or dangling internal workflow references were introduced. In ux-design, SKILL.md resolves skills/controller.md and guidelines.md; all eight command wrappers resolve ../skills/controller.md; and skills/controller.md references all eight phase skill files. The shared recipe references also resolve. The changed existing workflow entrypoints and triage documentation resolve their literal internal references, with only documented template/runtime artifact paths remaining dynamic. Every UX skill and command file is represented in the governing routing files.

Full details: No-Content-Duplication

Explanation

The pull request adds all three checked files under ux-design: SKILL.md (27 lines), guidelines.md (117 lines), and skills/controller.md (239 lines). Exact paragraph and contiguous multi-line comparisons found no duplicated blocks between any pair. The repeated phrases concern expected phase cross-references, such as conditional research and waiting between phases, and do not form substantial copied prose or step-by-step instructions.

Full details: Step-Sequencing

Explanation

All nine changed ux-design/skills/*.md files were checked. The explicit main-step headings are sequential with no gaps or duplicates: evaluate 1–7, handoff 1–6, ingest 1–7, prototype 1–4, publish 1–8, research 1–6, respond 1–5, and revise 1–5. The controller defines eight sequential workflow phases. No lettered sub-steps were found, and no skill has more than 10 main steps.

Inline comments:
In `@_shared/scripts/provenance.py`:
- Line 524: Update argument validation after parsing in the provenance CLI to
validate the selected phase against a per-workflow phase map, rejecting handoff
for prd and design while preserving valid workflow-phase combinations. Use the
existing workflow and phase argument handling around the choices declaration,
and ensure invalid combinations are rejected before writing provenance events.
- Around line 72-77: Update origin_untracked_note to avoid claiming template
verification was absent for ux-design; use workflow-specific wording or neutral
phase-history text for that workflow while preserving existing messages
elsewhere. Add a footer test covering the revise-first ux-design case and
asserting the corrected text.
- Around line 26-40: Update the version metadata in prd/SKILL.md and
design/SKILL.md to 0.8.1, and in ux-design/SKILL.md to 0.1.1, keeping all other
workflow content unchanged.

In `@install.sh`:
- Around line 187-188: Update the skill-linking logic around ln -sfn to inspect
${skills_dir}/${skill_name} first; if it exists and is not a symbolic link,
print an error and terminate before creating the link. Preserve normal
replacement behavior for existing symlinks and the current pinned bare-name link
target.

In `@ux-design/guidelines.md`:
- Around line 55-70: Update the workflow guidelines to require all significant
UX-design outputs be persisted under .artifacts/ux-design/{context}/ and to
prohibit reading or writing any other workflow’s private artifact directory.
Place these rules in the general workflow or artifact-handling guidance so they
apply to every phase, rather than relying only on the controller’s artifact
table.

In `@ux-design/README.md`:
- Around line 36-45: Update the workflow documentation in the README’s phase
table and artifact tree to include the publish outputs created by the publish
workflow: .artifacts/ux-design/{issue-key}/06-pr-description.md and
publish-metadata.json. Ensure the README documents the workflow’s .artifacts/
output path and all implemented publish artifacts, without changing unrelated
phase descriptions.

In `@ux-design/skills/controller.md`:
- Around line 152-157: Update the `/prototype` requirement in the phase table to
make `02-research.md` conditional: require it when `/research` was run, or
otherwise require explicit confirmation that validated research data is
available, while preserving the direct `/ingest` to `/prototype` path when
research is skipped.
- Around line 204-212: Update the Context Management section to prohibit
spawning or executing a subagent for a later phase without the required human
phase-gate approval; limit subagents to work within the current phase unless the
user explicitly authorizes advancement. Preserve the existing context-loading
requirements for the current phase.

In `@ux-design/skills/evaluate.md`:
- Around line 83-87: Update the Standalone HTML instructions to launch the local
http.server as a tracked background process, retain its process identifier, and
stop that specific server after the evaluation skill completes; keep the
existing prototype directory and URL requirements unchanged.

In `@ux-design/skills/handoff.md`:
- Around line 52-67: Update the cleanup step after assembling 05-handoff.md to
move the exact raw output file discovered in Step 1, preserving either the .md
or .json extension, instead of assuming a Markdown filename. Keep the existing
destination namespace and stop/report if the discovered file cannot be found.
- Around line 27-29: Update the artifact prerequisite in the handoff
instructions to read 02-research.md only when available, allowing the
01-discovery.md fallback when /research is skipped. Require the handoff to
explicitly record that formal research was skipped in that workflow.

In `@ux-design/skills/ingest.md`:
- Around line 50-51: Update the external-operation failure guidance in the
ingest skill to follow the controller’s fail-loud policy: stop the workflow,
report the exact Jira or codebase error, offer retry, skip, or escalation
options, and wait for the researcher’s decision before continuing. If any
failures remain non-fatal, explicitly identify and classify them.

In `@ux-design/skills/prototype.md`:
- Around line 143-191: Update the prototype mirror contract and output tree to
include reviews/summary.md, copying it from .artifacts/{ID}/reviews/summary.md
to 03-prototype/reviews/summary.md and preserving it through refinement cleanup
and recreation. Ensure the documentation identifies this file as a required
canonical workflow output without changing the existing mode-specific mirror
rules.

In `@ux-design/skills/publish.md`:
- Around line 78-87: Apply one consistent safe shell-argument policy across the
affected command blocks: validate branch, base branch, release, feature,
repository, title, PR, and handoff-path values with appropriate allowlists,
reject traversal or invalid input, and pass all values as safely quoted
arguments. Update ux-design/skills/publish.md lines 78-87 and 139-147, and
ux-design/skills/respond.md lines 32-38 and 80-105; preserve the existing
workflow while preventing command alteration and path traversal.

In `@ux-design/skills/research.md`:
- Around line 14-16: Update the research prerequisite flow in the research skill
to accept validated researcher-provided equivalent problem framing in addition
to .artifacts/ux-design/{issue-key}/01-discovery.md; only instruct the
researcher to run /ingest and stop when neither the artifact nor an equivalent
framing is available, keeping it consistent with the controller skill.
- Around line 35-45: Update the “AI-Accessible Research” section to define
behavior when research tools are unavailable or searches produce no usable
results: record the limitation in 02-research.md, prohibit fabricated findings,
and explicitly state whether the phase stops and reports the limitation or
continues with no-data results.

In `@ux-design/skills/respond.md`:
- Around line 70-108: Update Step 4 in the respond workflow to branch on whether
the handoff changed: when Step 3 reports “Handoff change needed: No,” post
approved clarification replies only and skip repository copy, provenance,
staging, commit, and push operations; retain the existing repository update flow
only when handoff content changed.

Flag any absolute filesystem path in markdown files within workflow directories (*/SKILL.md, /skills/.md, /commands/.md, */guidelines.md). Paths like /home/, /Users/, /tmp/, /var/, /opt/ are prohibited because workflows are installed via symlink and must use relative paths only.

When any of SKILL.md, guidelines.md, or controller.md in a workflow is changed, compare it against whichever of the other two files are present and check for verbatim duplication of multi-line instruction blocks or paragraphs. Each has a distinct role: SKILL.md is the thin entry point, guidelines.md holds principles/limits/safety/quality/escalation, controller.md manages phase dispatch. Phase names and brief one-line descriptions appearing in multiple files is EXPECTED (cross-referencing, not duplication) — only flag substantial blocks of identical prose or step-by-step instructions that are copied between files.

Learning: In markdown files under the repo’s skill/command areas (e.g., `skills/**` and `commands/**`), any references to other files on disk (like links/includes pointing to other skill/command markdown such as `../skills/controller.md` or `commands/*.md`) must use relative paths—never absolute paths (no leading `/` or fully-qualified filesystem paths). This ensures the references remain symlink-safe and resolve correctly at runtime. Do not apply this rule to human-facing prose docs like `README.md`/`CONTRIBUTING.md`; when those documents intentionally distinguish user-level vs project-level install locations, keep the absolute user-level paths (e.g., `~/.cursor/commands/`) as written so the distinction is clear.

When these appear, do not flag them as dangling/invalid references solely because the braces indicate substitution of an invoked command or phase name at runtime.

Learning: In flightctl/ai-workflows, treat `SKILL.md` as a size-constrained document: keep it at or under 30 lines. If a `SKILL.md` already exceeds 30 lines but was not changed by the current PR (a known pre-existing issue), don’t require fixing it as part of the PR. If the PR does modify a too-long `SKILL.md`, refactor it into a thin entry point (e.g., move bulk content to smaller companion docs and leave only a brief overview/links) so the `SKILL.md` itself stays within the 30-line limit.

Learning: In flightctl/ai-workflows workflow skill files (e.g., kcs/bugfix/prd/design skills), do not require sanitization/normalization of free-form user-supplied identifier placeholders (such as {issue-key} or {issue-number}) when they’re used to construct artifact paths like `.artifacts/{workflow}/{identifier}/`. This is intentional because these workflows run in human-supervised IDE sessions where the user provides the values interactively and confirms the output. Therefore, do not flag missing sanitization/normalization of these identifiers as a security or correctness issue during review for these skill files.

Learning: In flightctl/ai-workflows skill markdown files, treat path references as two categories:
1) For cross-document markdown links (e.g., links to other .md files like ../skills/controller.md or ../../templates/design.md), use paths relative to the current markdown file’s location so links work under symlinks.
2) For runtime artifact paths used as prose instructions to the AI agent (e.g., .artifacts/design/{issue-number}/publish-metadata.json or .artifacts/prd/config.json), keep them repo-root-relative (start with .artifacts/). Do not convert these artifact paths to be relative to the skill file directory (e.g., don’t rewrite to ../../.artifacts/...), because the AI resolves them from the repo root.

11-15: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality

Resolve the workflow version-validation failure before merge.

The supplied CI failure reports that a workflow referencing changed shared provenance files did not bump its version. The error names design, while this cohort uses ux-design; verify whether the validator sees a stale alias or the wrong manifest. Bump the affected workflow manifest in the same commit as the behavioral change.

Check the top-level \`package.json\` for \`@patternfly/react-core\`; for monorepos,
also check workspace package.json files (e.g., \`packages/*/package.json\` or

Added note to Accessibility Findings template (lines 380-387):

Note whether the chosen design system/framework (e.g., PatternFly, Material UI)
provides accessible building blocks (components with built-in WCAG compliance,
keyboard navigation, ARIA attributes) as a baseline. The handoff should rely on
the framework's accessibility primitives rather than requiring every attribute
to be manually specified.

The way this is currently defined, I don't think it can be guaranteed that this UX contract could be implemented as-is for a given release.

  1. Unless ingested with the PRD (and sometimes even with the technical design document), it would be possible for the UX design to include parts that are not supported by the feature's technical design. IMO there needs to be a "reality check" that the UX design is supported (or will be in the Backend portion of the feature).

  2. There could be additional constraints that prevent delivering the most user-friendly UX in a single feature. The current human flows take into consideration this by producing a "final vision", which in some cases may be slimmed-down to an MVP/phased approach for the current feature. This is done based on the sizing and capacity of the UX and UI components, or for other reasons such as doing so could require having to re-do larger parts of the UI.

Fixed in 7889a17

Added two features in response to this feedback:

  1. Reference-following /ingest (commit 7889a17) that loads PRD + design doc + sibling stories from shared locations (Jira, docs repo), not local .artifacts/:

    • Step 1 resolves story, epic, and feature keys
    • Step 2 finds and reads PRD/design.md from the docs repo under the feature directory
    • Step 3 loads sibling stories from the parent epic
  2. Feasibility and Phasing Check in /handoff Step 4 (commit 7889a17) that reality-checks the design against the technical design context:

    • Classifies each element: Supported / Needs backend support / Requires design change
    • Proposes Final Vision vs. MVP/Phase 1 split when constraints force phasing
    • Marked unverified when design document unavailable

This directly addresses your concern that without ingesting the PRD and technical design document, the handoff could specify UX the technical design doesn't support.

See:

  • ux-design/skills/ingest.md lines 47-136 (reference-following)
  • ux-design/skills/handoff.md lines 119-162 (feasibility check)

Added explicit caveat matching the endpoint guidance (lines 118-123):

Note permission-gated interactions — but do **not** invent permission systems
or specific permission names that you have not confirmed exist in the codebase
or design document. Describe permission requirements conceptually (e.g., "admin-
only action") unless you have verified the actual permission model.

See ux-design/skills/handoff.md lines 118-123.

The /ingest phase framed the problem from scratch and never loaded the
PRD or the technical design document, so /handoff could specify UX the
feature's architecture does not support — the gap celdrake flagged on
PR #108.

Rework /ingest to be reference-following: from a [UX] story, resolve the
Feature -> Epic -> Story hierarchy (the story names only its epic; the
epic file carries the Feature key that names the docs directory), then
load the PRD, design document, sibling stories, and design-system docs
from shared locations (published docs repo and Jira) — never another
workflow's private .artifacts/. Feed that context into uxd-discovery and
capture it in an expanded 01-discovery.md (personas, NFRs, technical
design context).

Add a Feasibility and Phasing check to /handoff: reality-check each
design element against the ingested technical design, reusing the Data
Annotations backend-gap list, and record a Final Vision vs. MVP/Phase 1
split when constraints require it rather than silently dropping scope.
When no design document was ingested, the check runs against the
discovery Current State and is marked unverified.

Version stays 0.1.0: the workflow is unmerged and never released, so a
pre-merge bump would track nothing.

… fixes

Cascade version bump (shared-file rule):
- prd, design: 0.8.0→0.8.1 (provenance.py consumers)

Artifact isolation and shell safety:
- ux-design/guidelines.md: added artifact-persistence rules and shell-safety
  policy (quote interpolated values, never pass unvalidated text as flags)

Documentation completeness:
- ux-design/README.md: added 06-pr-description.md and publish-metadata.json
  to phase table and artifact tree

Failure handling:
- ux-design/skills/ingest.md: classify fatal (core input) vs non-fatal
  (optional input) failures; hard-stop on fatal, note-and-continue on non-fatal
- ux-design/skills/research.md: added "or equivalent" fallback for missing
  01-discovery.md; added failure-mode guidance for unavailable tools/zero results

Conditional operations:
- ux-design/skills/respond.md: git operations now conditional on "Handoff
  change needed: Yes" (skip when comment-only response)
- ux-design/skills/evaluate.md: removed misleading "in the background" from
  server command

Mirror-set completeness:
- ux-design/skills/prototype.md: added reviews/ to mirror set and artifact
  tree (preserves reviews/summary.md across refinement iterations)

Contextual guidance:
- ux-design/skills/controller.md: added "don't bypass the human gate" reminder
  to subagent-spawning section
- ux-design/skills/handoff.md: patternfly check now covers monorepos; cleanup
  mv handles both .md and .json; added "don't invent permissions" caveat
- ux-design/skills/evaluate.md: a11y template notes framework should provide
  accessible building blocks

Provenance fixes:
- _shared/scripts/provenance.py: origin_untracked_note() workflow-aware (ux-design
  no longer falsely claims "template from origin"); per-workflow phase validation
  (rejects invalid combos like prd --phase handoff)
- _shared/scripts/test_provenance.py: enhanced origin_untracked_note test to
  verify ux-design doesn't mention "template"; added phase-validation test

Install safety:
- install.sh: ln -sfn now guards against non-symlink targets (prevents nesting
  into real directories)

All changes preserve AI-agnostic design; subagent usage remains conditional
on runtime support.

Changed subagent-spawning guidance from "applies to Claude Code only" to
capability-based language: "not all AI runtimes support subagent spawning".

This matches the AI-agnostic pattern used in prd/design controllers and
removes the prescriptive runtime constraint.

Other mentions of Claude Code/Cursor/Gemini in README.md, prototype.md, and
evaluate.md remain — they're factual/descriptive documentation of the
$CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR variable behavior and fallback paths, not prescriptive
constraints.

**/{SKILL.md,guidelines.md,skills/*.md,commands/*.md}

📄 CodeRabbit inference engine (Custom checks)

Flag any absolute filesystem path in markdown files within workflow directories (*/SKILL.md, /skills/.md, /commands/.md, */guidelines.md). Paths like /home/, /Users/, /tmp/, /var/, /opt/ are prohibited because workflows are installed via symlink and must use relative paths only. Paths inside fenced code blocks that are clearly examples (containing "example", "e.g.", or placeholder usernames like /home/user/) are exempt.

📄 CodeRabbit inference engine (Custom checks)

When any of SKILL.md, guidelines.md, or controller.md in a workflow is changed, compare it against whichever of the other two files are present and check for verbatim duplication of multi-line instruction blocks or paragraphs. Each has a distinct role: SKILL.md is the thin entry point, guidelines.md holds principles/limits/safety/quality/escalation, controller.md manages phase dispatch. Phase names and brief one-line descriptions appearing in multiple files is EXPECTED (cross-referencing, not duplication) — only flag substantial blocks of identical prose or step-by-step instructions that are copied between files.

For any changed markdown file in a workflow directory, verify that file path references (backtick-quoted paths like ../skills/controller.md or guidelines.md) point to files that exist. Flag references to files that don't exist (dangling references). Also flag skill or command files that exist but are never referenced from SKILL.md, controller.md, or any command file (orphaned files).

**/*.{md,sh,py}: 1. No IDE-specific syntax: All workflow content is plain markdown
2. Relative paths only: For symlink compatibility across install scopes
4. No auto-advance in attended mode: Workflows wait for user input between phases unless an explicit unattended mode is documented for that workflow
5. Artifact persistence: All significant outputs saved to .artifacts/{workflow-name}/{context}/
7. Artifact isolation: .artifacts/{workflow-name}/ is each workflow's private state. Other workflows must never read from or write to another workflow's artifact directory. The shared interfaces between workflows are: Jira (canonical source for issue data), published docs repo files (PRDs, designs, testplans), and workspace-level config at .artifacts/config.json

For any changed skills/*.md file, verify that main steps are numbered sequentially (Step 1, Step 2, Step 3... or ## Step 1, ## Step 2...). Flag: gaps in numbering (1, 2, 4), duplicate numbers (two Step 3s), and any skill with more than 10 main steps (cognitive load risk for AI agents). Sub-steps (Step 1a, Step 3b) are acceptable ONLY when they represent conditional branches off the parent step (e.g., "Step 1a: If , do X"). Flag sub-steps that are actually new main steps inserted to avoid renumbering — those should be promoted to full steps with the sequence renumbered.

**/skills/*.md: Phase skill review (ai-workflows conventions):

  • Maximum 10 steps per skill invocation — flag if exceeded
    (cognitive load / context window risk for AI agents)
  • Main steps must be numbered sequentially: no gaps, no
    duplicates. Sub-steps (e.g., Step 1a) are allowed ONLY for
    conditional branches off a parent step — never as a way to
    insert a new main step without renumbering
  • Internal cross-references (e.g., "see Step 4") must point to
    correct step numbers
  • No step should depend on output from a later step
  • Synthesis tasks (summarization, assessment, verdict) must NOT
    be buried after heavy per-item processing — they degrade in
    long contexts
  • controller.md must reference sibling skills as phase-name.md
    (not skills/phase-name.md) — relative to its own directory
  • Skills referencing _shared/ resources must use the correct
    relative path depth (e.g., ../../_shared/recipes/self-review-gate.md
    from skills/)
  • Failure modes must be documented: what to do when prerequisites
    are missing, when zero results are returned, when tools are
    unavailable
  • Escalation criteria must be clear: when to stop and ask the user
  • Instructions must be unambiguous — an AI agent reading
    top-to-bottom should produce correct output on the first try

File: design/skills/respond.md:29-31
Timestamp: 2026-04-12T00:25:51.234Z
Learning: In flightctl/ai-workflows skill markdown files, treat path references as two categories:
1) For cross-document markdown links (e.g., links to other .md files like ../skills/controller.md or ../../templates/design.md), use paths relative to the current markdown file’s location so links work under symlinks.
2) For runtime artifact paths used as prose instructions to the AI agent (e.g., .artifacts/design/{issue-number}/publish-metadata.json or .artifacts/prd/config.json), keep them repo-root-relative (start with .artifacts/). Do not convert these artifact paths to be relative to the skill file directory (e.g., don’t rewrite to ../../.artifacts/...), because the AI resolves them from the repo root.

File: README.md:140-142
Timestamp: 2026-05-25T17:11:32.207Z
Learning: In markdown files under the repo’s skill/command areas (e.g., `skills/**` and `commands/**`), any references to other files on disk (like links/includes pointing to other skill/command markdown such as `../skills/controller.md` or `commands/*.md`) must use relative paths—never absolute paths (no leading `/` or fully-qualified filesystem paths). This ensures the references remain symlink-safe and resolve correctly at runtime. Do not apply this rule to human-facing prose docs like `README.md`/`CONTRIBUTING.md`; when those documents intentionally distinguish user-level vs project-level install locations, keep the absolute user-level paths (e.g., `~/.cursor/commands/`) as written so the distinction is clear.

Timestamp: 2026-04-16T10:39:50.418Z
Learning: In flightctl/ai-workflows workflow skill files (e.g., kcs/bugfix/prd/design skills), do not require sanitization/normalization of free-form user-supplied identifier placeholders (such as {issue-key} or {issue-number}) when they’re used to construct artifact paths like `.artifacts/{workflow}/{identifier}/`. This is intentional because these workflows run in human-supervised IDE sessions where the user provides the values interactively and confirms the output. Therefore, do not flag missing sanitization/normalization of these identifiers as a security or correctness issue during review for these skill files.

Learning: In flightctl/ai-workflows documentation, treat backtick-quoted workflow path templates that include placeholders (e.g., `commands/{command}.md`, `skills/{phase}.md`) as runtime-dispatch/template instructions for AI agents, not literal Markdown links. When these appear, do not flag them as dangling/invalid references solely because the braces indicate substitution of an invoked command or phase name at runtime.

187-192: Do not leave a conflicting skill active.

When ${skills_dir}/${skill_name} is a non-symlink directory, this branch skips the pinned UXD link and leaves the existing skill active. The existing skill can shadow the pinned UXD skill. Stop with an error before linking, or otherwise fail the installation instead of continuing.

210-221: Do not spawn the next phase before approval.

Line 212 still instructs the AI to spawn “the next phase” when context quality degrades. The added note prevents automatic advancement after completion, but it does not prevent the subagent from executing the next phase before the researcher approves it. Spawn only the current phase, or require explicit approval before spawning a later phase.

Maintainability:
- _shared/scripts/provenance.py: remove unnecessary else branch in
  origin_untracked_note() (lines 79-91)

Discoverability:
- ux-design/SKILL.md: add explicit command triggers line matching prd/design
  pattern: "Activated by commands: /ingest, /research, /prototype, /evaluate,
  /handoff, /revise, /publish, /respond"

Portability:
- ux-design/skills/ingest.md: store docs_repo_path as relative (to source
  repo root) in .artifacts/config.json, resolve to absolute at runtime. Makes
  config portable across machines. Example: store ../myproject-docs instead of
  /home/user/src/myproject-docs

Shell safety:
- ux-design/skills/evaluate.md: quote substituted arguments in skill
  invocation example (lines 115-119). Handles framework names with apostrophes
  (e.g., "Nielsen's 10 Usability Heuristics") and URLs with special chars

@coderabbitai All 4 findings from review 5009992382 have been addressed in commit 3018a57:

  1. provenance.py:82-91 - Removed unnecessary else branch
  2. SKILL.md:5-10 - Added explicit command triggers line
  3. ingest.md:104-115 - Store docs_repo_path as relative, resolve to absolute at runtime
  4. evaluate.md:115-119 (outside diff) - Quoted all substituted arguments in skill invocation example

The evaluate.md fix addresses the shell-safety concern for framework names with apostrophes (e.g., "Nielsen's 10 Usability Heuristics") and URLs with query parameters.

In `@ux-design/SKILL.md`:
- Line 14: Remove the duplicate activated-command declaration from SKILL.md, or
relocate that detail to guidelines.md, so SKILL.md remains a thin entry point
with fewer than 30 lines while preserving the command metadata in frontmatter.

In `@ux-design/skills/evaluate.md`:
- Around line 116-118: Update the /uxd-research-heuristic-eval invocation so the
relative --project path is resolved from the source-repository root, either by
requiring execution from that root or by using an explicitly root-anchored path.
Preserve the expected output directory for Step 6.

In `@ux-design/skills/ingest.md`:
- Around line 104-116: Use one consistent root term throughout the docs
repository workflow: define “workspace root” as the source-repository root, or
replace each “workspace root” reference with “source-repository root” in the
docs_repo_path resolution, validation, and config rewrite instructions.
- Around line 108-112: Update the config recovery flow for an existing config so
that, after successful validation, it persists both the corrected docs_repo_path
and replacement docs_repo_remote to .artifacts/config.json, ensuring stale
remote values are not retained.

**/{SKILL.md,guidelines.md,skills/*.md,commands/*.md}

📄 CodeRabbit inference engine (Custom checks)

Flag any absolute filesystem path in markdown files within workflow directories (*/SKILL.md, /skills/.md, /commands/.md, */guidelines.md). Paths like /home/, /Users/, /tmp/, /var/, /opt/ are prohibited because workflows are installed via symlink and must use relative paths only. Paths inside fenced code blocks that are clearly examples (containing "example", "e.g.", or placeholder usernames like /home/user/) are exempt.

Files:

  • ux-design/SKILL.md
  • ux-design/skills/evaluate.md
  • ux-design/skills/ingest.md
**/{SKILL.md,guidelines.md,controller.md}

📄 CodeRabbit inference engine (Custom checks)

When any of SKILL.md, guidelines.md, or controller.md in a workflow is changed, compare it against whichever of the other two files are present and check for verbatim duplication of multi-line instruction blocks or paragraphs. Each has a distinct role: SKILL.md is the thin entry point, guidelines.md holds principles/limits/safety/quality/escalation, controller.md manages phase dispatch. Phase names and brief one-line descriptions appearing in multiple files is EXPECTED (cross-referencing, not duplication) — only flag substantial blocks of identical prose or step-by-step instructions that are copied between files.

Files:

  • ux-design/SKILL.md
**/*.md

📄 CodeRabbit inference engine (Custom checks)

For any changed markdown file in a workflow directory, verify that file path references (backtick-quoted paths like ../skills/controller.md or guidelines.md) point to files that exist. Flag references to files that don't exist (dangling references). Also flag skill or command files that exist but are never referenced from SKILL.md, controller.md, or any command file (orphaned files).

**/*.md: 2. Progressive disclosure: SKILL.md is thin (under 30 lines), details live in guidelines.md and skills/
3. Relative paths: All file references must be relative to the file's location (for symlink compatibility)

  1. No IDE-specific syntax: All workflow content is plain markdown
  2. No auto-advance in attended mode: Workflows wait for user input between phases unless an explicit unattended mode is documented for that workflow
  3. Artifact persistence: All significant outputs saved to .artifacts/{workflow-name}/{context}/
  4. Artifact isolation: .artifacts/{workflow-name}/ is each workflow's private state. Other workflows must never read from or write to another workflow's artifact directory.
  • Git operations: Always verify with git status before destructive operations

**/*.md: Cross-workflow consistency (ai-workflows conventions):

  • All file references must be relative paths (never absolute) —
    this is critical for symlink compatibility
  • No IDE-specific syntax (Cursor-specific, VS Code-specific, etc.)
  • Consistent terminology within a workflow: pick one term, stick
    with it
  • Schema field names and types must match between producer and
    consumer files (e.g., if a field is defined in one phase skill
    and consumed in another, names and types must agree)
  • No verbatim duplication of multi-line instruction blocks
    across SKILL.md, guidelines.md, and controller.md — each has

📄 CodeRabbit inference engine (Custom checks)

For any SKILL.md file changed in this PR, verify it is under 30 lines total (including frontmatter). SKILL.md must be thin entry points using progressive disclosure. If a SKILL.md exceeds 30 lines, flag it with the count and suggest moving content to guidelines.md or skills/ files.

    activated-by commands)
  • Total file length must be under 30 lines (progressive
    disclosure rule — details belong in guidelines.md or skills/)

**/skills/*.md

📄 CodeRabbit inference engine (Custom checks)

For any changed skills/*.md file, verify that main steps are numbered sequentially (Step 1, Step 2, Step 3... or ## Step 1, ## Step 2...). Flag: gaps in numbering (1, 2, 4), duplicate numbers (two Step 3s), and any skill with more than 10 main steps (cognitive load risk for AI agents). Sub-steps (Step 1a, Step 3b) are acceptable ONLY when they represent conditional branches off the parent step (e.g., "Step 1a: If , do X"). Flag sub-steps that are actually new main steps inserted to avoid renumbering — those should be promoted to full steps with the sequence renumbered.

  • ux-design/skills/evaluate.md
  • ux-design/skills/ingest.md

⚙️ CodeRabbit configuration file

**/skills/*.md: Phase skill review (ai-workflows conventions):

  • Maximum 10 steps per skill invocation — flag if exceeded
    (cognitive load / context window risk for AI agents)
  • Main steps must be numbered sequentially: no gaps, no
    duplicates. Sub-steps (e.g., Step 1a) are allowed ONLY for
    conditional branches off a parent step — never as a way to
    insert a new main step without renumbering
  • Internal cross-references (e.g., "see Step 4") must point to
    correct step numbers
  • No step should depend on output from a later step
  • Synthesis tasks (summarization, assessment, verdict) must NOT
    be buried after heavy per-item processing — they degrade in
    long contexts
  • controller.md must reference sibling skills as phase-name.md
    (not skills/phase-name.md) — relative to its own directory
  • Skills referencing _shared/ resources must use the correct
    relative path depth (e.g., ../../_shared/recipes/self-review-gate.md
    from skills/)
  • Failure modes must be documented: what to do when prerequisites
    are missing, when zero results are returned, when tools are
    unavailable
  • Escalation criteria must be clear: when to stop and ask the user
  • Instructions must be unambiguous — an AI agent reading
    top-to-bottom should produce correct output on the first try
  • If the file has YAML frontmatter, name and description are required

@adalton, I verified commit 3018a57.

The changes in _shared/scripts/provenance.py, ux-design/skills/ingest.md, and ux-design/skills/evaluate.md address the reported findings.

ux-design/SKILL.md has a new issue. The Activated by commands: line appears twice. Remove one copy before this finding can be marked as addressed.

Learning: In `flightctl/ai-workflows`, `ux-design/skills/ingest.md` requires `.artifacts/config.json` to store `docs_repo_path` relative to the source repository root. The workflow resolves that stored path to an absolute path only at runtime for repository validation and access.

You are interacting with an AI system.

CI fix:
- _shared/recipes/capture-provenance-event.md: bump version 0.1.1→0.1.2
  (added ux-design to workflow list)
- _shared/recipes/render-provenance-footer.md: bump version 0.1.1→0.1.2
  (added ux-design to workflow list)

SKILL.md fix:
- ux-design/SKILL.md: remove duplicate "Activated by commands" line (was on
  both lines 13 and 14, keep only line 11 after removing "Useful for..." line)
  File now 28 lines (under 30-line target)

Terminology consistency:
- ux-design/skills/ingest.md: use "source-repository root" consistently
  throughout docs repo config section (lines 104-120). Was mixing "workspace
  root" and "source-repository root"

Config persistence fix:
- ux-design/skills/ingest.md: config recovery now persists BOTH corrected
  docs_repo_path AND replacement docs_repo_remote (line 110-112). Previously
  only persisted the path, leaving stale remote values

Path anchoring:
- ux-design/skills/evaluate.md: anchor --project path to source-repository
  root using $(pwd) expansion (line 118). Ensures path resolves correctly if
  skill execution changes directory

@adalton, I verified commit a5465cb.

The following changes address the reported findings:

  • ux-design/SKILL.md now has one Activated by commands: line.
  • ux-design/skills/ingest.md consistently uses source-repository root.
  • Config recovery persists both docs_repo_path and docs_repo_remote.
  • Both provenance recipes use version 0.1.2.

I used the existing docs_repo_path portability guidance during this verification.

One issue remains in ux-design/skills/evaluate.md.

The text requires resolution from the source-repository root. It then says to construct the absolute path from the workspace root with $(pwd). $(pwd) is only the source-repository root when the command starts there. If the skill changes directory, the generated --project path is incorrect.

Define the source-repository root explicitly before the invocation, then construct --project from that value.

…ocation

CodeRabbit correctly identified that $(pwd) only works if the command runs
from the source-repository root. If the skill changes directory before
invoking uxd-research-heuristic-eval, $(pwd) would resolve incorrectly.

Fix: Capture SOURCE_ROOT=$(pwd) before the invocation, then use
${SOURCE_ROOT} in the --project path. This ensures the path is always
constructed from the actual source-repository root regardless of the
current directory when the command executes.

@coderabbitai Fixed in e678df2

Explicitly capture the source-repository root before the skill invocation:

SOURCE_ROOT=$(pwd)

Then construct the --project path using ${SOURCE_ROOT} instead of $(pwd). This ensures the path resolves correctly even if the skill execution changes directory before running the command.

See ux-design/skills/evaluate.md lines 112-125.

16-16: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Correct the ux-design phase contract.

_shared/scripts/test_provenance.py:139-148 proves that ux-design rejects draft. This row currently presents draft as valid for every workflow and adds only handoff for ux-design. An agent that follows this recipe can trigger ValueError during provenance capture.

Document the phase set for each workflow. At minimum, remove draft from the ux-design set and align the table with WORKFLOW_PHASES.

Proposed documentation fix
-| PHASE | Yes | `draft`, `revise`, or `respond` (ux-design also uses `handoff`) |
+| PHASE | Yes | Use a phase valid for the selected workflow. `ux-design` does not use `draft`; use its phase set from `WORKFLOW_PHASES`, including `handoff` where applicable. |

Learning: In flightctl/ai-workflows skill markdown files, treat path references as two categories:
1) For cross-document markdown links (e.g., links to other .md files like ../skills/controller.md or ../../templates/design.md), use paths relative to the current markdown file’s location so links work under symlinks.
2) For runtime artifact paths used as prose instructions to the AI agent (e.g., .artifacts/design/{issue-number}/publish-metadata.json or .artifacts/prd/config.json), keep them repo-root-relative (start with .artifacts/). Do not convert these artifact paths to be relative to the skill file directory (e.g., don’t rewrite to ../../.artifacts/...), because the AI resolves them from the repo root.

@adalton, verified commit e678df2.

ux-design/skills/evaluate.md now captures SOURCE_ROOT=$(pwd) before the skill invocation. The --project argument uses ${SOURCE_ROOT}. This prevents a directory change during skill execution from changing the artifact output path.

Learning: In `flightctl/ai-workflows`, `ux-design/skills/ingest.md` requires `.artifacts/config.json` to store `docs_repo_path` relative to the source repository root. The workflow resolves that stored path to an absolute path only at runtime for repository validation and access.

Resolve the repository root instead of using the current directory.

Line [120] uses pwd, but the preceding input instructions use the prototype directory. In that state, SOURCE_ROOT is not the source-repository root, so --project points below the prototype directory and Step 6 cannot find .artifacts/ux-design/{issue-key}/04-eval-raw.

Explicitly change to the source-repository root before assigning SOURCE_ROOT, or resolve it with git rev-parse --show-toplevel.

The ownership model we discussed holds - UXD skills are hard dependencies on the methodology phases, FlightControl owns the orchestration. LGTM.

CodeRabbit correctly identified two issues with the previous fix:

1. SOURCE_ROOT assignment and invocation were in separate blocks - if run
   in different shells, SOURCE_ROOT would be unset
2. Path should be relative for portability, not absolute

Fix: Use a single bash block with cd "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)" to
explicitly change to the source-repository root, then pass the relative path
.artifacts/ux-design/{issue-key}/04-eval-raw directly.

This ensures the command runs from the correct location and uses a portable
relative path.

CodeRabbit correctly identified that after initial config validation fails,
we re-ask for values but don't revalidate them before saving. This could
persist invalid values and cause the same recovery loop to repeat.

Fix: Explicitly revalidate replacement values using the same checks (path
exists, is a git repository, remote URL matches) before converting to
relative form and persisting to .artifacts/config.json.

CodeRabbit identified two issues:

1. If git rev-parse fails, cd receives an empty path and continues from
   the wrong directory. Fix: Capture REPO_ROOT first and fail early with
   error message if git rev-parse fails.

2. /uxd-research-heuristic-eval looks like an absolute filesystem path.

Include SKILL.md in the shared-file cascade search.

The command searches guidelines.md, skills, commands, templates, prompts, and scripts, but it does not search */SKILL.md. A direct shared-file reference in SKILL.md can therefore be missed, leaving that workflow on an old version. Add */SKILL.md to the glob list.

ux-design a provenance consumer, so add its mapping: capture on /handoff,
/revise, /respond; render on /publish, /respond. Verified against the
recipe references in ux-design/skills/{handoff,revise,respond,publish}.md.

@coderabbitai Thanks for the review. Both findings are on AGENTS.md and flagged as outside the diff range. Responses:

Line 73 — document ux-design in provenance-consumer guidance: Fixed in 68b7a50.

Added the ux-design mapping alongside prd/design: capture on /handoff, /revise, /respond; render on /publish, /respond. Verified against the recipe references in ux-design/skills/{handoff,revise,respond,publish}.md.

Lines 124-131 — add */SKILL.md to the cascade-search glob: Not changing.

The exclusion of SKILL.md is deliberate, not an oversight. The CI script .github/scripts/validate-versions.sh (which the doc mirrors) omits SKILL.md in two places: the grep glob doesn't list */SKILL.md, and when scanning root-level .md files it explicitly skips SKILL.md|README.md|GUIDE.md|guidelines.md (line 57). SKILL.md is intentionally the target of version bumps, not a source of shared-file references — consistent with the thin <30-line entry-point design where behavioral references live in guidelines/skills/commands/templates/prompts/scripts.

It's also fully latent: no */SKILL.md currently references any _shared/ file. Adding the glob to the doc alone would diverge from CI, and adding it to both would reverse a deliberate exclusion. This is unrelated to the ux-design workflow, so if it's worth revisiting it belongs in a separate doc+CI change.

@adalton, I verified commit 68b7a50.

AGENTS.md Line 73 now documents the correct ux-design provenance use:

  • Capture: /handoff, /revise, /respond.
  • Render: /publish, /respond.

The mapping matches the recipe references in the four specified skill files.

I withdraw the */SKILL.md cascade-search finding. The documented command matches .github/scripts/validate-versions.sh. The CI script explicitly excludes SKILL.md from root-level Markdown scanning. No current workflow SKILL.md file references _shared/.

Learning: In `flightctl/ai-workflows`, the shared-file cascade search intentionally excludes workflow `SKILL.md` files. `.github/scripts/validate-versions.sh` and `AGENTS.md` search `guidelines.md`, `skills/*.md`, `commands/*.md`, `templates/*.md`, `prompts/*.md`, `scripts/*`, and eligible root-level behavioral Markdown. `SKILL.md` is a thin entry point and a version-bump target, not a source of shared-file references.
