 GSD ► UI AUDIT — PHASE {N}: {name}
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

1. Detect Input State

SUMMARY_FILES=$(ls "${PHASE_DIR}"/*-SUMMARY.md 2>/dev/null)
UI_SPEC_FILE=$(ls "${PHASE_DIR}"/*-UI-SPEC.md 2>/dev/null | head -1)
UI_REVIEW_FILE=$(ls "${PHASE_DIR}"/*-UI-REVIEW.md 2>/dev/null | head -1)

If SUMMARY_FILES empty: Exit — "Phase {N} not executed. Run /gsd:execute-phase {N} first."

Text mode (workflow.text_mode: true in config or --text flag): Set TEXT_MODE=true if --text is present in $ARGUMENTS OR text_mode from init JSON is true. When TEXT_MODE is active, replace every AskUserQuestion call with a plain-text numbered list and ask the user to type their choice number. This is required for non-Claude runtimes (OpenAI Codex, Gemini CLI, etc.) where AskUserQuestion is not available. If UI_REVIEW_FILE non-empty: Use AskUserQuestion:

• header: "Existing UI Review"
• question: "UI-REVIEW.md already exists for Phase {N}."
• options:
  • "Re-audit — run fresh audit"
  • "View — display current review and exit"

If "View": display file, exit. If "Re-audit": continue.

2. Gather Context Paths

Build file list for auditor:

• All SUMMARY.md files in phase dir
• All PLAN.md files in phase dir
• UI-SPEC.md (if exists — audit baseline)
• CONTEXT.md (if exists — locked decisions)

3. Spawn gsd-ui-auditor

◆ Spawning UI auditor...

Build prompt:

Read ~/.claude/agents/gsd-ui-auditor.md for instructions.

<objective>
Conduct 6-pillar visual audit of Phase {phase_number}: {phase_name}
{If UI-SPEC exists: "Audit against UI-SPEC.md design contract."}
{If no UI-SPEC: "Audit against abstract 6-pillar standards."}
</objective>

<files_to_read>
- {summary_paths} (Execution summaries)
- {plan_paths} (Execution plans — what was intended)
- {ui_spec_path} (UI Design Contract — audit baseline, if exists)
- {context_path} (User decisions, if exists)
</files_to_read>

${AGENT_SKILLS_UI_REVIEWER}

<config>
phase_dir: {phase_dir}
padded_phase: {padded_phase}
</config>

Omit null file paths.

Agent(
  prompt=ui_audit_prompt,
  subagent_type="gsd-ui-auditor",
  model="{UI_AUDITOR_MODEL}",
  description="UI Audit Phase {N}"
)

ORCHESTRATOR RULE — CODEX RUNTIME: After calling Agent() above, stop working on this task immediately. Do not read more files, edit code, or run tests related to this task while the subagent is active. Wait for the subagent to return its result. This prevents duplicate work, conflicting edits, and wasted context. Only resume when the subagent result is available.

Automated UI Verification (when Playwright-MCP is available)

If mcp__playwright__* tools are accessible in this session:

1. Navigate to each UI component described in the phase's UI-SPEC.md using mcp__playwright__navigate (or equivalent Playwright-MCP tool).
2. Take a screenshot of each component using mcp__playwright__screenshot.
3. Compare against the spec's visual requirements — dimensions, color palette, layout, spacing scale, and typography.
4. Report any dimension, color, or layout discrepancies automatically as additional findings within the relevant pillar section of UI-REVIEW.md.
5. Flag items that require human judgment (brand feel, content tone) as needs_human_review: true in the findings — these are surfaced to the user separately after the automated pass completes.

If Playwright-MCP is not available in this session, this section is skipped entirely. The audit falls back to the standard code-only review described above. No configuration change is required — the availability of mcp__playwright__* tools is detected at runtime.

5. Commit (if configured)

gsd_run query commit "docs(${padded_phase}): UI audit review" --files "${PHASE_DIR}/${PADDED_PHASE}-UI-REVIEW.md"
