WalkthroughAdds a complete ChangesUX design workflow
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to The PR adds a UX design workflow plus installation and documentation-publication behavior, but the current implementation can fail during installation, continue with incomplete artifacts, report handoff readiness without required validation, and publish unintended or unvalidated documentation changes. These are material correctness and safety risks, so merge should wait until the major workflow and installation issues are fixed or explicitly accepted. Possibly related PRs

Great start — the UX methodology here is solid, and the artifact templates show real domain expertise. A few structural items to align with the rest of the repo before we iterate on details.
Since this is still in draft, I'm focusing on the highest-impact structural items first. We'll have more detailed feedback as things take shape — but getting these foundations right early will save rework later.
Naming: This workflow covers discovery → research → prototyping → evaluation → handoff. That's the scope of a UX design workflow, not a research workflow. We've been planning this as ux-design. The design workflow already has a /research phase for external problem-space investigation, so naming the entire workflow "research" would create confusion. Let's rename to ux-design.

Missing lifecycle phases. Every workflow in this repo that produces a deliverable artifact has /revise, /publish, and /respond phases — design, implement, and prd all follow this pattern. They handle incorporating stakeholder feedback, pushing a PR for team review, and addressing reviewer comments.
Without them, the handoff artifact lives only in .artifacts/. We treat each workflow's .artifacts/ directory as private state — other workflows and other people can't depend on it. That's why the other workflows have /publish to push artifacts to a shared location (docs repo PR) where they become visible and reviewable.
The prototype→evaluate loop is good for design iteration, but the handoff needs the same review cycle the other workflows provide. I'd suggest adding /revise, /publish, and /respond after /handoff, following the same patterns as the design workflow's equivalents.

Phase name alignment: This phase fills the same structural role as design's /research phase — "gather evidence about the problem space before producing the main deliverable." Different methods (user research vs. technical investigation), same position in the workflow.
Renaming /investigate to /research would align with the established convention and make the conditional-skip logic feel familiar: "recommend /research when user needs are unclear, otherwise skip to /prototype" mirrors design's "recommend /research when the PRD involves external integrations, otherwise skip to /draft."

| # Install UXD AI Skills — marketplace (preferred) with symlink fallback. |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Simplify to one install path. The uxd-workshop skills are plain markdown files — the generic install_uxd_skills() (clone + symlinks) already works for Cursor and Gemini. It would work identically for Claude. The marketplace-specific block here adds a second code path for the same result. Let's use install_uxd_skills uniformly for all targets.

Scope UXD install to workflows that need it. Right now install_uxd_skills runs unconditionally for every install target. If someone runs ./install.sh claude --workflows design, they'd still get the UXD repo cloned and skills symlinked. The UXD dependency should only be installed when the ux-design workflow is in the install set.

Inline comments:
In `@install.sh`:
- Line 126: Update install_uxd_skills and the UXD_DIR resolution so --project
installs do not create links targeting the installer user’s ${HOME}; use a
project-local or portable source path, or copy the approved skill content, while
preserving user-scope behavior. Ensure generated project links use relative
paths for symlink compatibility across installation scopes.
- Around line 316-330: Update the Claude installation block around the
marketplace add and plugin install commands to detect failures instead of
suppressing them with “|| true”. If marketplace or any plugin installation
fails, invoke install_uxd_skills "$SKILLS_DIR" or return a clear failure; retain
the existing fallback for environments where claude is unavailable.
- Around line 138-140: Update the UXD fallback clone logic in install.sh to
check out an approved immutable commit or revision instead of the mutable
default branch, then validate that checkout succeeds before creating any skill
links. Preserve the existing warning-and-skip behavior when cloning or
validation fails.
- Around line 322-325: Update the plugin installation loop in install.sh to
handle SCOPE=project by changing to PROJECT_ROOT and using the documented
singular claude plugin commands with --scope project for both listing and
installation. Remove the || true suppression so installation failures are
surfaced instead of silently ignored, while preserving the existing UXD_PLUGINS
iteration.
In `@README.md`:
- Around line 24-26: Add the Research workflow to the selective-installation
list and command examples in README.md, using the existing installation and
invocation patterns and documenting its actual commands. Keep the existing
“What’s Included” entry unchanged.
In `@research/guidelines.md`:
- Around line 15-17: Update the evaluation and handoff workflow around
04-evaluation.md and the /handoff recommendation so handoff validation requires
documented real-user-testing results, or an explicit researcher-approved
exception when testing occurs outside the workflow; simulated or heuristic
evaluation alone must not mark the handoff as validated.
- Around line 40-41: Align the artifact-format guidance in guidelines.md with
the phase templates: either add consistent YAML frontmatter to the templates
referenced by ingest, investigate, prototype, and evaluate, or narrow the
frontmatter requirement so it applies only to workflow instruction files.
In `@research/README.md`:
- Around line 18-21: Update the prerequisite table and related phase
descriptions to match the workflow’s fallback behavior: mark Jira access as
conditional when Jira input is provided, and mark UXD marketplace plugins as
optional with the documented non-plugin fallback. Keep the feature-description
path usable without Jira, and ensure the references around the workflow phases
consistently describe these conditions.
- Around line 20-21: Update the command references throughout the README to use
workflow-qualified names: /research:ingest, /research:investigate,
/research:prototype, /research:evaluate, and /research:handoff. Ensure command
examples show actual invocations, and document any separately exposed Cursor
aliases without replacing the canonical names.
In `@research/SKILL.md`:
- Around line 16-20: Update the explicit-command routing in the workflow
instructions to read commands/{command}.md instead of skills/{command}.md,
preserving the existing controller.md path for requests without a specific
command. Ensure command wrappers remain responsible for loading the controller,
forwarding arguments, and dispatching the requested phase.
- Around line 8-10: Update the workflow description in SKILL.md to replace the
unsupported short aliases with the installer-exposed command forms:
/research:<phase> for Claude and /research-<phase> for Cursor, while preserving
the listed research phases.
In `@research/skills/controller.md`:
- Around line 162-170: Update research/skills/controller.md lines 162-170 so
subagent recovery is limited to the current phase and cannot dispatch later
phases; preserve the report-and-wait gate managed by the controller. Update
research/skills/evaluate.md lines 204-217 to report readiness, re-read
controller.md, and wait for user direction rather than proceeding directly to
/handoff.
In `@research/skills/evaluate.md`:
- Around line 23-31: Update the evaluation workflow in the depth-selection,
fallback, and output-template sections so Quick, Standard, and Full each have
executable steps and dedicated structured result sections in 04-evaluation.md.
Preserve Quick rubric scores and Full desirability findings when optional tools
are unavailable by adding fallback procedures, or require explicit confirmation
before downgrading the selected depth; also document the relevant failure modes.
In `@research/skills/handoff.md`:
- Around line 13-21: Update the handoff prerequisites around “Read all prior
artifacts” to check for every required artifact before attempting to read any of
them. If 01-discovery.md, 02-research.md, 03-prototype/prototype-notes.md, or
04-evaluation.md is missing, stop and ask whether to create it, retry the prior
phase, or proceed using a documented partial-handoff mode; do not synthesize
unsupported content, and preserve the existing evaluation-specific prompt where
applicable.
Apply the same fix in `@research/skills/handoff.md` around lines 13 - 17: Retains
the required missing-input handling and explicit implementation integration
requirement.
In `@research/skills/ingest.md`:
- Around line 24-43: Update research/skills/ingest.md lines 24-43 to define
failure handling for Jira retrieval, missing or unreadable PRDs,
competitive-search errors, unavailable tools, and zero results: stop or continue
only as explicitly appropriate, report the failure, avoid inventing context, and
obtain researcher confirmation before proceeding when required. Update
research/skills/prototype.md lines 66-82 to define equivalent handling for UXD
tool failures, partial files, invalid output, missing prerequisites, and
unavailable tools, including validation before presenting or persisting the
prototype and researcher confirmation for recovery or continuation.
In `@research/skills/investigate.md`:
- Around line 42-48: Extend the research workflow’s anonymization step to redact
all imported source content and metadata before persistence, including support
tickets, forum posts, analytics, bug reports, and internal documents. Apply this
consistently to the evidence and 02-research.md artifacts while preserving
source citations and confidence labels without retaining names, emails, account
IDs, or quoted PII.
- Around line 78-86: Update the insight-generation guidance to allow findings
based on a single data source when no corroborating sources exist, explicitly
labeling them LOW confidence and including an open validation question. Retain
the requirements to label confidence and assumptions, avoid fabricated
corroboration, and preserve the actionable insight format.
In `@research/skills/prototype.md`:
- Around line 76-82: Update the manual prototype instructions so any integrated
prototype also has its files, metadata, and rationale copied or recorded under
.artifacts/research/{issue-key}/03-prototype/ before codebase integration;
alternatively prohibit codebase integration in this phase. Preserve the existing
documented design-system guidance.

Learning: In markdown files under the repo’s skill/command areas (e.g., `skills/**` and `commands/**`), any references to other files on disk (like links/includes pointing to other skill/command markdown such as `../skills/controller.md` or `commands/*.md`) must use relative paths—never absolute paths (no leading `/` or fully-qualified filesystem paths). This ensures the references remain symlink-safe and resolve correctly at runtime. Do not apply this rule to human-facing prose docs like `README.md`/`CONTRIBUTING.md`; when those documents intentionally distinguish user-level vs project-level install locations, keep the absolute user-level paths (e.g., `~/.cursor/commands/`) as written so the distinction is clear.

Learning: In flightctl/ai-workflows, treat `SKILL.md` as a size-constrained document: keep it at or under 30 lines. If a `SKILL.md` already exceeds 30 lines but was not changed by the current PR (a known pre-existing issue), don’t require fixing it as part of the PR. If the PR does modify a too-long `SKILL.md`, refactor it into a thin entry point (e.g., move bulk content to smaller companion docs and leave only a brief overview/links) so the `SKILL.md` itself stays within the 30-line limit.

Learning: In flightctl/ai-workflows skill markdown files, treat path references as two categories:
1) For cross-document markdown links (e.g., links to other .md files like ../skills/controller.md or ../../templates/design.md), use paths relative to the current markdown file’s location so links work under symlinks.
2) For runtime artifact paths used as prose instructions to the AI agent (e.g., .artifacts/design/{issue-number}/publish-metadata.json or .artifacts/prd/config.json), keep them repo-root-relative (start with .artifacts/). Do not convert these artifact paths to be relative to the skill file directory (e.g., don’t rewrite to ../../.artifacts/...), because the AI resolves them from the repo root.

Learning: In flightctl/ai-workflows, for Jira URL examples inside skill Markdown files, follow the repo-wide convention and use a real example Jira link of the form `https://issues.redhat.com/browse/PROJ-123` (not a generic placeholder like `https://example.com/...`). Since this is a documented convention, do not flag it as a portability/documentation hardcoding issue when reviewing similar skill markdown files.

Learning: In flightctl/ai-workflows workflow skill files (e.g., kcs/bugfix/prd/design skills), do not require sanitization/normalization of free-form user-supplied identifier placeholders (such as {issue-key} or {issue-number}) when they’re used to construct artifact paths like `.artifacts/{workflow}/{identifier}/`. This is intentional because these workflows run in human-supervised IDE sessions where the user provides the values interactively and confirms the output. Therefore, do not flag missing sanitization/normalization of these identifiers as a security or correctness issue during review for these skill files.

Keep project-scope links independent of the installer user’s home.
When --project is selected, Cursor and Gemini pass project skill directories to install_uxd_skills, but UXD_DIR always resolves under ${HOME}. The generated project links therefore point to a private checkout and can break for collaborators or another machine. Use a project-local or portable checkout for project scope, or copy the approved skill content instead of linking to ${HOME}.

Claude Code plugin install command scope project marketplace documentation
💡 Result:
Claude Code plugins are extensions that package custom slash commands, agents, hooks, and MCP servers into installable units [1][2]. Installation and management are performed primarily through the /plugin command or the claude plugin CLI [3][4][5]. Installation Commands - Interactive (In-Session): Run /plugin to open the plugin manager interface to browse and install plugins [4][6][7]. Alternatively, run /plugin install plugin-name@marketplace-name to install a specific plugin [6][8][7]. - Non-Interactive (CLI): Run the following command in your terminal outside of a Claude Code session: claude plugin install plugin-name@marketplace-name --scope [3][4][5] Plugin Scopes Scopes determine where the plugin configuration is saved and who can access it [3][4]. - User: Installed for your personal use across all projects; saved in ~/.claude/settings.json [3][4][5]. - Project: Shared with all team members who clone the repository; saved in.claude/settings.json [3][4][5]. - Local: Available only for your use within the current repository; saved in.claude/settings.local.json [3][4][5]. Marketplaces Marketplaces act as sources for plugins [8][9]. The official Anthropic marketplace (claude-plugins-official) is usually registered automatically [10][6]. To add other marketplaces (such as community repositories or private GitHub repos), use the following command [11][5]: /plugin marketplace add /reload-plugins to apply the changes [11][8][7]. For detailed documentation, see the official Claude Code documentation [3][1][12].

Before generating the handoff, verify that every required output from the preceding phases exists. If any input is missing, stop and ask whether to create it, retry the owning phase, or proceed in an explicitly documented partial mode; do not synthesize unsupported content. Also make the implementation workflow explicitly consume the completed handoff, or remove the claim that the handoff is its contract.

In `@ux-design/skills/publish.md`:
- Around line 28-56: Update ux-design/skills/publish.md lines 28-56 to require

remote, authentication, or status validation fails, including unavailable tools.
Update ux-design/skills/respond.md lines 32-40 so failures from gh pr view or gh
api stop the workflow and are reported rather than treated as empty results.
- Around line 122-126: Update the draft PR creation step to derive and confirm

changes in the publish and respond workflows and preserve the existing
operations only after validation succeeds.
- Around line 58-73: Update the Step 4 branch-creation workflow to base the new
branch on the confirmed base branch rather than the current HEAD. In the git

preserving the existing docs-repo command scope.
In `@ux-design/skills/revise.md`:

For any file in a commands/ directory, verify the YAML frontmatter name field uses colon notation matching the pattern {workflow-name}:{phase-name} (e.g., bugfix:assess, design:ingest). The workflow-name must match the parent workflow directory name. Flag any command whose name field is missing, does not contain a colon, or has a prefix that doesn't match its workflow directory.

Flag any absolute filesystem path in markdown files within workflow directories (*/SKILL.md, /skills/.md, /commands/.md, */guidelines.md). Paths like /home/, /Users/, /tmp/, /var/, /opt/ are prohibited because workflows are installed via symlink and must use relative paths only. Paths inside fenced code blocks that are clearly examples (containing "example", "e.g.", or placeholder usernames like /home/user/) are exempt.

For any changed skills/*.md file, verify that main steps are numbered sequentially (Step 1, Step 2, Step 3... or ## Step 1, ## Step 2...). Flag: gaps in numbering (1, 2, 4), duplicate numbers (two Step 3s), and any skill with more than 10 main steps (cognitive load risk for AI agents). Sub-steps (Step 1a, Step 3b) are acceptable ONLY when they represent conditional branches off the parent step (e.g., "Step 1a: If , do X"). Flag sub-steps that are actually new main steps inserted to avoid renumbering — those should be promoted to full steps with the sequence renumbered.

**/skills/*.md: Phase skill review (ai-workflows conventions):

(cognitive load / context window risk for AI agents)- Main steps must be numbered sequentially: no gaps, no
duplicates. Sub-steps (e.g., Step 1a) are allowed ONLY for
conditional branches off a parent step — never as a way to
insert a new main step without renumbering- Internal cross-references (e.g., "see Step 4") must point to
correct step numbers- No step should depend on output from a later step
- Synthesis tasks (summarization, assessment, verdict) must NOT
be buried after heavy per-item processing — they degrade in
long contexts- controller.md must reference sibling skills as phase-name.md
(not skills/phase-name.md) — relative to its own directory- Skills referencing _shared/ resources must use the correct
relative path depth (e.g., ../../_shared/recipes/self-review-gate.md
from skills/)- Failure modes must be documented: what to do when prerequisites
are missing, when zero results are returned, when tools are
unavailable- Escalation criteria must be clear: when to stop and ask the user
- Instructions must be unambiguous — an AI agent reading
top-to-bottom should produce correct output on the first try- If the file has YAML frontmatter, name and description are required

Learning: In markdown files under the repo’s skill/command areas (e.g., `skills/**` and `commands/**`), any references to other files on disk (like links/includes pointing to other skill/command markdown such as `../skills/controller.md` or `commands/*.md`) must use relative paths—never absolute paths (no leading `/` or fully-qualified filesystem paths). This ensures the references remain symlink-safe and resolve correctly at runtime. Do not apply this rule to human-facing prose docs like `README.md`/`CONTRIBUTING.md`; when those documents intentionally distinguish user-level vs project-level install locations, keep the absolute user-level paths (e.g., `~/.cursor/commands/`) as written so the distinction is clear.

Learning: In flightctl/ai-workflows skill markdown files, treat path references as two categories:
1) For cross-document markdown links (e.g., links to other .md files like ../skills/controller.md or ../../templates/design.md), use paths relative to the current markdown file’s location so links work under symlinks.
2) For runtime artifact paths used as prose instructions to the AI agent (e.g., .artifacts/design/{issue-number}/publish-metadata.json or .artifacts/prd/config.json), keep them repo-root-relative (start with .artifacts/). Do not convert these artifact paths to be relative to the skill file directory (e.g., don’t rewrite to ../../.artifacts/...), because the AI resolves them from the repo root.

Learning: In flightctl/ai-workflows workflow skill files (e.g., kcs/bugfix/prd/design skills), do not require sanitization/normalization of free-form user-supplied identifier placeholders (such as {issue-key} or {issue-number}) when they’re used to construct artifact paths like `.artifacts/{workflow}/{identifier}/`. This is intentional because these workflows run in human-supervised IDE sessions where the user provides the values interactively and confirms the output. Therefore, do not flag missing sanitization/normalization of these identifiers as a security or correctness issue during review for these skill files.

Learning: In flightctl/ai-workflows, treat `SKILL.md` as a size-constrained document: keep it at or under 30 lines. If a `SKILL.md` already exceeds 30 lines but was not changed by the current PR (a known pre-existing issue), don’t require fixing it as part of the PR. If the PR does modify a too-long `SKILL.md`, refactor it into a thin entry point (e.g., move bulk content to smaller companion docs and leave only a brief overview/links) so the `SKILL.md` itself stays within the 30-line limit.

It only removes generated `.cursor/commands/{wf}-*.md` files when the corresponding source phase file still exists, to avoid accidentally deleting user-created command files that happen to match the `{wf}-*.md` naming pattern. Stale generated files from deleted phases are considered harmless (the controller handles unknown phase names gracefully). The correct upgrade path after removing a phase is: run `uninstall.sh` (removes commands matching current source), then `install.sh` (regenerates from updated source). Adding frontmatter markers or a manifest to distinguish generated vs user files was explicitly rejected because it reintroduces manifest complexity the PR was designed to eliminate.Learnt from: CR Repo: flightctl/ai-workflows PR: 0 File: AGENTS.md:0-0 Timestamp: 2026-08-04T12:24:33.382Z Learning: Applies to **/skills/*.md : When workflows invoke commands that can affect shared systems, follow the documented approval and safety gates: verify `git status` before destructive Git operations, confirm branch and base before PR/MR pushes, require explicit approval for Jira writes, and run Vale before applying documentation changes.Learnt from: CR Repo: flightctl/ai-workflows PR: 0 File: skill-reviewer/skills/review.md:0-0 Timestamp: 2026-06-10T14:01:34.868Z Learning: Applies to skill-reviewer/skills/**/README.md : README.md must accurately reflect what the skills actually do, with all features mentioned implemented in the skills and no implemented features left undocumentedLearnt from: CR Repo: flightctl/ai-workflows PR: 0 File: skill-reviewer/skills/review.md:0-0 Timestamp: 2026-06-10T14:01:34.868Z Learning: Applies to skill-reviewer/skills/**/SKILL.md : SKILL.md must correctly route to all commands and skills, with all skills/*.md and commands/*.md files referenced and no orphaned filesLearnt from: galel12 Repo: flightctl/ai-workflows PR: 47 File: README.md:140-142 Timestamp: 2026-05-25T17:11:42.891Z Learning: In the flightctl/ai-workflows repository, the coding guideline "All file references must be relative paths (never absolute)" applies specifically to cross-references *inside* skill/command markdown files (e.g., `../skills/controller.md`, `commands/*.md`), where symlink-safe relative paths matter at runtime.

When PatternFly coverage is required and /pf-react:pf-test-gen is unavailable, record the coverage check as unverified and stop for user input or require a manual test path. Do not report full validation without this assessment.

Bash 3.2 set -u empty indexed array "${array[@]}" unbound variable
💡 Result:
In Bash 3.2, when the 'nounset' option is enabled (via 'set -u' or 'set -o nounset'), expanding an empty indexed array using "${array[@]}" or "${array[*]}" triggers an "unbound variable" error [1][2][3][4]. This behavior occurs because Bash treats an array with no assigned elements as unset, even if the array variable itself has been declared [5]. While this was a subject of debate, it was considered intended behavior in versions prior to 4.4 [5]. In Bash 4.4 and later, this behavior was changed so that expanding an empty array with 'nounset' enabled no longer triggers an unbound variable error [5][2]. Workarounds for Bash 3.2 and other versions affected by this behavior include: 1. Recommended Safe Expansion: Use the syntax "${array[@]+"${array[@]}"}" [2][6][4]. This idiom checks if the array is set; if it is, it expands to the array contents. If the array is unset or empty, the entire expression expands to nothing, thereby avoiding the error [2][6]. 2. Alternative Approach: If you only need to ensure the variable is not treated as unset, you can provide an empty string as a default value using "${array[@]:-}" in contexts where array expansion is not required to produce multiple words [6]. However, this does not preserve the array's behavior of expanding each element as a separate word [5][2]. For robust cross-version compatibility, "${array[@]+"${array[@]}"}" is the widely accepted standard for handling potentially empty arrays while 'nounset' is active [2][6].

Use one canonical term for the human decision-maker.
The workflow alternates between designer and researcher for the person who confirms decisions. Choose one term or explicitly define distinct roles and approval rights so the agent does not request confirmation from the wrong participant.

Create the feature branch from the confirmed base branch.
The workflow asks for {base-branch}, but git checkout -b {branch-name} starts from the repository's current HEAD. If HEAD is not the confirmed base, the PR can include unrelated commits.
Suggested change
+git -C "{docs_repo_path}" fetch origin "{base-branch}"
-git -C "{docs_repo_path}" checkout -b {branch-name}

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

Resolve {owner}/{repo} before running gh pr create.
Step 2 validates docs_repo_remote, but it does not define how to derive or confirm {owner}/{repo}. Bind these values from the configured remote before running the command.

Summary
Adds a
/ux-designworkflow for AI-assisted UX design. Same structure as/designand/implement— follows existing conventions for SKILL.md, guidelines, commands, and skills.Phases:
/ingest→/prototype⟷/evaluate→/handoff→/revise→/publish→/respondUses skills from the UXD AI Skills marketplace for discovery, heuristic evaluation, prototype generation, and design handoff. Override files wire in
uxd-discovery(ingest) anduxd-design-handoff(handoff) with graceful degradation.Phases
/ingest01-discovery.md/prototype02-prototype//evaluate03-evaluation.md/handoff04-handoff.md/revise04-handoff.md/publish05-pr-description.md/respond04-handoff.mdPrototype and evaluate loop iteratively — designer decides when to move to handoff.
Future: /research phase
A
/researchphase (user research synthesis — interviews, surveys, analytics) is planned as a future enhancement. The synthesis skill backing it requires scoping with the UXD research team around specific use cases (secondary data sources, de-identified survey themes) and will likely live behind VPN in internal-ai-helpers due to PII and compliance considerations. The workflow is fully functional without it — designers bring their own research context to/prototype.Closes: UXDOPS-2843
