Writing Tone

concise, confident, helpful, clear, friendly, professional, action-oriented, low-jargon

Rules: Do

• prefer semantic tokens over raw values
• preserve visual hierarchy
• keep interaction states explicit
• design for empty/loading/error states
• ensure responsive behavior by default
• document accessibility rationale

Rules: Don't

• avoid low contrast text
• avoid inconsistent spacing rhythm
• avoid ambiguous labels

Expected Behavior

• Follow the foundations first, then component consistency.
• When uncertain, prioritize accessibility and clarity over novelty.
• Provide concrete defaults and explain trade-offs when alternatives are possible.
• Keep guidance opinionated, concise, and implementation-focused.
