PERSONAL WORKFLOW / AI × DESIGN × DELIVERY

AI, in practice.

I use AI to turn
ideas into deliverables.

I bring goals and references; AI works in Figma and in the codebase.
AI syncs master and edits styles. I review the result and give feedback.

GOAL / CONTEXT / EXECUTION / REVIEW / ITERATION

  1. 01

    Goal

    Define the task
    Design or styles

  2. 02

    Context

    Find the source
    Design and rules

  3. 03

    Tools

    Use known steps
    Terminal + Figma

  4. 04

    Review

    Open the output
    Check the goal

  5. 05

    Iterate

    Point to a change
    Refine and check

From a request to something I can open, review and keep improving.

01 / START WITH A CLEAR BRIEF

One request.
Three clear inputs.

Define the task, share the source of truth and say where to deliver.
Give AI a clear direction and a result I can review.

01

Goal

Update spacing, type and color.
Make the scope of the style change clear.

02

Source of truth

Figma + design system + master.
Work from the existing design and code.

03

Delivery location

A Figma node or a code repository.
Return work I can continue to edit.

With the goal, reference and destination in place, AI can get to work.

02 / CONTEXT BEFORE ACTION

Put the rules in place.
Build on what we know.

WORKING CONTEXT

AGENTS.md

Working preferences and project constraints

SKILL.md

Reusable steps for familiar tasks

Project sources

Figma · Design system · Repository contracts

Read what the task needs → Execute

Turn repeated instructions
into lasting context.

AGENTS records constraints. Skills keep proven steps.
AI reads what the task needs and brings my preferences into the work.

Reuse established workflows.
Handle routine details autonomously.
Confirm material changes together.

03 / FROM MASTER TO STYLE CHANGES

Sync the latest master.
Edit styles in the repo.

I bring the goal and references. AI edits styles on a task branch, then returns a clear diff and validation results.

CHECKS / REVIEW & LOGS

Diff and validation

01  Review the diff
02  Build or verify as needed
03  Return results for feedback

Checks follow the task scope.

Ghostty opens the terminal. Herdr organizes context, edits and checks. Codex or a DeepSeek-powered agent executes the task.

CODE WORKFLOW / FROM MASTER TO REVIEWABLE CHANGES

  1. 01

    Sync master

    Start from the latest
    master baseline.

  2. 02

    Isolate work

    Use a task branch
    or isolated worktree.

  3. 03

    Edit styles

    Match Figma and the
    design system in code.

  4. 04

    Run checks

    Review the diff.
    Build or verify.

  5. 05

    For review

    Return changes and
    validation for feedback.

04 / MODELS & TOOLS

Tools that
work together.

Ghostty opens the terminal; Herdr organizes the workspace. I choose Codex or a DeepSeek-powered agent for the task and connect design, edits and checks.

Tools serve the task.
Keep the familiar Mac setup.

05 / REVIEW / FEEDBACK / VERIFY

Review what comes back.
Make the feedback precise.

Point to differences in type, color and spacing. AI revises the code, reviews the diff and runs the relevant checks.

ALIGNED

Use components and tokens to align the style.
  1. Review

  2. Give feedback

  3. Revise

  4. Check again

06 / KEEP WHAT WORKS

Finish the work at hand.
Give the next a head start.

Keep confirmed preferences, effective steps and checks in rules and skills. Start the next task with what we have learned.
