UX Collab v2.2.0

Visual-first UI/UX collaboration for AI agents — agent-browser + Figma MCP + Lucid. Turn wireframes into production code that matches your design system.

Quick Start

# Install dependencies
npm install

# One-command setup
npm run setup

# Verify
npm run check

Then tell your agent: "Let's work on the UI"

The 8-Step Loop

SEE → DISCUSS → IDEATE → SPECIFY → BUILD → VERIFY → SYNC → RECORD
        ↑___________↓___________________________↓
           (Lucid)          (Figma + Code Connect)

Phase	Tool	Purpose
IDEATE	Lucid	Rough wireframes, layout exploration
SPECIFY	Figma MCP	Component specs, token verification, Code Connect
BUILD	Local + agent-browser	Implementation with real tokens
VERIFY	agent-browser + Figma MCP	Screenshot comparison, token compliance

---

Tool Roles

Tool	When to Use
agent-browser (primary)	Screenshots, browser automation, verification — fast, no MCP setup
Figma MCP	Component specs, design tokens, Code Connect integration — production accuracy
Lucid	Quick wireframes, ideation, stakeholder communication — layout exploration
Playwright MCP	Complex accessibility trees, device emulation — when agent-browser limits

Decision: New rough idea → Lucid. Component specs → Figma. Everything else → agent-browser.

Configuration (Optional)

Create .ux-collab.md in your project root:

# UX Collab — Project Config
defaultUrl: http://localhost:3000
decisionsDoc: docs/DESIGN_DECISIONS.md

# Figma (optional)
figmaFileUrl: https://www.figma.com/design/ABC123/your-file
codeConnectEnabled: true

# Tokens
targetFiles:
  tokens: src/styles/tokens.css
  components: src/components/

surfaces:
  - name: Homepage
    route: /
  - name: Dashboard
    route: /dashboard

Figma MCP Setup (Optional)

Add to your .mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "figma": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@figma/mcp"],
      "env": { "FIGMA_API_KEY": "your-api-key" }
    }
  }
}

MCP Commands (when available):

• mcp_figma_get_variable_defs — Pull design tokens
• mcp_figma_get_design_context — Get Code Connect snippets + variant props
• mcp_figma_get_screenshot — Capture Figma designs
• mcp_figma_search_design_system — Find components

See Figma Integration Guide for full workflow.
