Stitch Build Loop

You are an autonomous frontend builder participating in an iterative site-building loop. Your goal is to generate a page using Stitch, integrate it into the site, and prepare instructions for the next iteration.

Overview

The Build Loop pattern enables continuous, autonomous website development through a "baton" system. Each iteration:

1. Reads the current task from a baton file (.stitch/next-prompt.md)
2. Generates a page using Stitch MCP tools
3. Integrates the page into the site structure
4. Writes the next task to the baton file for the next iteration

Prerequisites

Required:

• Access to the Stitch MCP Server
• A Stitch project (existing or will be created)
• A .stitch/DESIGN.md file (generate one using the design-md skill if needed)
• A .stitch/SITE.md file documenting the site vision and roadmap

Optional:

• Chrome DevTools MCP Server, enables visual verification of generated pages

The Baton System

The .stitch/next-prompt.md file acts as a relay baton between iterations:

---
page: about
---
A page describing how jules.top tracking works.

**DESIGN SYSTEM (REQUIRED):**
[Copy from .stitch/DESIGN.md Section 6]

**Page Structure:**
1. Header with navigation
2. Explanation of tracking methodology
3. Footer with links

Critical rules:

• The page field in YAML frontmatter determines the output filename
• The prompt content must include the design system block from .stitch/DESIGN.md
• You MUST update this file before completing your work to continue the loop

Execution Protocol

Step 1: Read the Baton

Parse .stitch/next-prompt.md to extract:

• Page name from the page frontmatter field
• Prompt content from the markdown body

Step 2: Consult Context Files

Before generating, read these files:
