design

Frontend architect and design engineer for existing codebases. Builds, refines, and audits UI with reuse-first components, explicit state ownership, deliberate layout, product-specific visual direction, accessible interaction, purposeful motion, realistic stress testing, and honest verification. Use for frontend implementation or change - screens, components, layout, styling, interaction, animation, UX states, responsive behavior - and for frontend architecture or UI audits. Reads the product contract and DESIGN.md first. Does not decide product scope or acceptance. Skip for backend-only work, copywriting-only requests, or one-off static mockups with no codebase.
