design-handoff-brief
Transform feature briefs into structured design briefs that give designers the context they need before opening Figma. Use when asked to write a design brief, create a design handoff, brief a designer on a new feature, or translate a PRD into design requirements. Produces a brief with user goal, emotional context, success criteria, constraints, edge cases, and out-of-scope boundaries.

# Design Handoff Brief Skill
Produce a design brief that sets designers up for success — grounding them in user context and constraints before they open Figma, not after they've gone in the wrong direction.
## Required Inputs
Work from what is given. If any of these is missing, still produce the complete output: fill each gap with a reasonable assumption marked *(assumed, confirm)* and list those assumptions at the end. Ask a question first only when the core subject itself is missing (there is nothing to write about).
- **Feature brief or PRD** (even rough notes work)
- **Designer's name or team** (for personalisation)
- **Technical constraints** (any engineering limitations already known)
- **Timeline** (when does design need to be done?)
## What Designers Actually Need (and PMs Often Skip)
- The user's goal, not the feature name
