design-handoff-brief
Design Handoff Brief Skill
Produce a design brief that sets designers up for success — grounding them in user context and constraints before they open Figma, not after they've gone in the wrong direction.
Required Inputs
Ask the user for these if not provided:
- Feature brief or PRD (even rough notes work)
- Designer's name or team (for personalisation)
- Technical constraints (any engineering limitations already known)
- Timeline (when does design need to be done?)
What Designers Actually Need (and PMs Often Skip)
- The user's goal, not the feature name
- The emotional state of the user at this moment in the journey
- What success looks like — how will we know the design worked?
- Constraints: technical, legal, brand, accessibility
- Edge cases that must be handled
- What we're explicitly NOT solving for
