Approach
Phase 1: User Context
Clarify:
-
Who is the user?
-
What task are they trying to accomplish?
-
What's their mental model?
Phase 2: Flow Exploration
Generate 3-4 distinct interaction patterns considering:
-
Number of steps/clicks
-
Cognitive load
-
Discoverability
-
Accessibility
Phase 3: Recommendation
Recommend an approach with:
-
Primary user flow (step-by-step)
-
Edge cases to consider
-
Accessibility requirements
Constraints
-
No technical architecture — that's explore/tech
-
No visual design — that's explore/ui-design
-
Focus on interaction, not implementation
