Anti UI Slop Finish Gate

Enforce rigorous pre-staging UI finish criteria, verifying 100% interaction state coverage across components, eliminating AI visual slop, and halting deployment on any of the 13 universal escalation triggers.

When to Use

• Conducting pre-staging UI finish reviews for frontend components and full views
• Enforcing complete 6-state interaction coverage prior to production deployment
• Applying the 13 universal escalation triggers to identify blocking defects
• Purging synthetic marketing slop (fake testimonials, abstract swirl SVGs, stock headshots)
• Auditing multi-viewport resilience across mobile ($320\text{px}$), tablet, and desktop viewports

Core Rules

• Dark-Pattern Compliance (regulatory, distinct from aesthetic slop): Consent, cancellation, subscription, and upsell surfaces must pass a dark-pattern review — nagging, obstruction, sneaking, forced action, confirmshaming, and trick questions — per DSA Art 25/26 and FTC enforcement standards; record the review in ux-flow-spec.json dark_pattern_review. A visually clean flow can still be a regulatory violation.
