Interaction Design

Overview

Use this skill to define clear, accessible interaction behavior for primary and edge-case user journeys.

Scope Boundaries

• Use this skill when the task matches the trigger condition described in description.
• Do not use this skill when the primary task falls outside this skill's domain.

Shared References

• Interaction feedback principles:
  • references/interaction-feedback-principles.md

Templates And Assets

• Flow spec template:
  • assets/flow-spec-template.md
• State transition template:
  • assets/state-transition-template.csv
• Edge-case checklist:
  • assets/interaction-edge-case-checklist.md

Inputs To Gather

• User tasks and business-critical journeys.
• Existing flow issues and support signals.
• Platform interaction constraints.
• Error/retry expectations and accessibility constraints.

Deliverables

• Flow specifications with start/end/alternate/failure paths.
• State transition and feedback behavior map.
• Explicit edge-case behavior definitions.
• Accessibility-ready interaction checkpoints.

Workflow

1. Define flow boundaries in assets/flow-spec-template.md.
2. Map state transitions in assets/state-transition-template.csv.
3. Apply feedback principles from references/interaction-feedback-principles.md.
4. Cover failure and edge behavior via assets/interaction-edge-case-checklist.md.
5. Validate consistency and accessibility across similar patterns.

Quality Standard

• Critical flows have explicit state and transition models.
• Failure states are actionable and recovery paths are clear.
• Interaction behavior is consistent for similar intents.
• Keyboard/focus behavior supports accessibility requirements.

Failure Conditions

• Stop when flow goals or state boundaries are ambiguous.
• Stop when edge-case behavior is undefined for critical tasks.
• Escalate when interaction rules conflict with accessibility requirements.
