CRISP — Design Intelligence for AI Agents

Five skills that give your AI agent a senior product designer's eye. Drop them into Claude, Cursor, Copilot, or Gemini and get structured design reviews, feature specs, and developer handoffs grounded in the CRISP framework.

CRISP = Contextual · Responsive · Intelligent · Seamless · Powerful

Skills

| Command | What it does | |---------|-------------| | /crisp-teach | Onboards the AI to your product — users, design system, benchmarks. Writes .crisp.md which all other commands read automatically. Run once per project. | | /crisp-review | 30-second scan. Returns a grade A–F and your top 3 issues with specific fixes. Use during rapid iteration. | | /crisp-audit | Full CRISP evaluation. Scores all five dimensions, rates violations P0–P3, and benchmarks against Stripe, Linear, Notion, Asana, and Slack. | | /feature-design | Designs a new feature from scratch using CRISP principles — user flows, component decisions, compliance checks, and open questions. | | /handoff | Converts a reviewed design into a developer-ready spec — states, tokens, interactions, edge cases, accessibility, and exact copy. |

Cursor

Copy the contents of .cursor/rules/ into your project's .cursor/rules/ folder.

Other agents

• GitHub Copilot / Antigravity — copy from .agents/skills/
• Gemini — copy from .gemini/skills/
• Manual — copy any .md file from files/ and add it to your agent's context

How it works

Run /crisp-teach first. The AI interviews you about your product, users, and design system, then writes a .crisp.md file to your project root. Every subsequent CRISP command reads that file automatically — so reviews and specs are grounded in your specific context, not generic advice.

/crisp-teach   →  writes .crisp.md
/crisp-review  →  reads .crisp.md, returns grade + top 3 issues
/crisp-audit   →  reads .crisp.md, full scored evaluation
/feature-design → reads .crisp.md, produces user flow + spec
/handoff       →  reads .crisp.md, produces dev-ready spec

The CRISP Framework

| Dimension | The test | |-----------|----------| | Contextual | Can the user tell where they are and what this page does within 5 seconds? | | Responsive | Does the UI update immediately on every interaction? | | Intelligent | Are we showing insight, not raw data? | | Seamless | Are we fitting into their day — not forcing them into ours? | | Powerful | Is complexity hidden appropriately for each user type? |
