# Design Handoff Notes — AI-First, Human-Readable
### A structured handoff document optimized for AI implementation agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) while remaining clear for human developers
---
## About This Prompt
**Description:** Generates a design handoff document that serves as direct implementation instructions for AI coding agents. Unlike traditional handoff notes that describe how a design "should feel," this document provides machine-parseable specifications with zero ambiguity. Every value is explicit, every state is defined, every edge case has a rule. The document is structured so an AI agent can read it top-to-bottom and implement without asking clarifying questions — while a human developer can also read it naturally.
**The core philosophy:** If an AI reads this document and has to guess anything, the document has failed.
**When to use:** After design is finalized, before implementation begins. This replaces Figma handoff, design spec PDFs, and "just make it look like the mockup" conversations.
**Who reads this:**
- Primary: AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, etc.)
- Secondary: Human developers reviewing or debugging the AI's output
- Tertiary: You (the designer), when checking if implementation matches intent
**Relationship to CLAUDE.md:** This document assumes a CLAUDE.md design system file already exists in the project root. Handoff Notes reference tokens from CLAUDE.md but don't redefine them. If no CLAUDE.md exists, run the Design System Extraction prompts first.

## The Prompt
```
You are a design systems engineer writing implementation specifications.
Your output will be read primarily by AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor)
and secondarily by human developers.
Your writing must follow one absolute rule:
**If the reader has to guess, infer, or assume anything, you have failed.**
Every value must be explicit. Every state must be defined. Every edge case
must have a rule. No "as appropriate," no "roughly," no "similar to."
## Project Context
- **Project:** ${name}
- **Framework:** [Next.js 14+ / React / etc.]
- **Styling:** [Tailwind 3.x / CSS Modules / etc.]
- **Component library:** [shadcn/ui / custom / etc.]
- **CLAUDE.md location:** [path — or "not yet created"]
- **Design source:** [uploaded code / live URL / screenshots]
- **Pages to spec:** [all / specific pages]
## Output Format Rules
Before writing any specs, follow these formatting rules exactly:
1. **Values are always code-ready.**
WRONG: "medium spacing"
RIGHT: `p-6` (24px)
2. **Colors are always token references + fallback hex.**
WRONG: "brand blue"
RIGHT: `text-brand-500` (#2563EB) — from CLAUDE.md tokens
3. **Sizes are always in the project's unit system.**
If Tailwind: use Tailwind classes as primary, px as annotation
If CSS: use rem as primary, px as annotation
WRONG: "make it bigger on desktop"
RIGHT: `text-lg` (18px) at ≥768px, `text-base` (16px) below
4. **Conditionals use explicit if/else, never "as needed."**
WRONG: "show loading state as appropriate"
RIGHT: "if data fetch takes >300ms, show skeleton. If fetch fails, show error state. If data returns empty array, show empty state."
5. **File paths are explicit.**
WRONG: "create a button component"
RIGHT: "create `src/components/ui/Button.tsx`"
6. **Every visual property is stated, never inherited by assumption.**
Even if "obvious" — state it. AI agents don't have visual context.

## Document Structure
Generate the handoff document with these sections:
### SECTION 1: IMPLEMENTATION MAP
A priority-ordered table of everything to build.
AI agents should implement in this order to resolve dependencies correctly.
| Order | Component/Section | File Path | Dependencies | Complexity | Notes |
|-------|------------------|-----------|-------------|-----------|-------|
| 1 | Design tokens setup | `tailwind.config.ts` | None | Low | Must be first — all other components reference these |
| 2 | Typography components | `src/components/ui/Text.tsx` | Tokens | Low | Heading, Body, Caption, Label variants |
| 3 | Button | `src/components/ui/Button.tsx` | Tokens, Typography | Medium | 3 variants × 3 sizes × 6 states |
| ... | ... | ... | ... | ... | ... |
Rules:
- Nothing can reference a component that comes later in the table
- Complexity = how many variants × states the component has
- Notes = anything non-obvious about implementation
---
### SECTION 2: GLOBAL SPECIFICATIONS
These apply everywhere. AI agent should configure these BEFORE building any components.
#### 2.1 Breakpoints
Define exact behavior boundaries:
```
BREAKPOINTS {
mobile: 0px — 767px
tablet: 768px — 1023px
desktop: 1024px — 1279px
wide: 1280px — ∞
}
```
For each breakpoint, state:
- Container max-width and padding
- Base font size
- Global spacing multiplier (if it changes)
- Navigation mode (hamburger / horizontal / etc.)
#### 2.2 Transition Defaults
```
TRANSITIONS {
default: duration-200 ease-out
slow: duration-300 ease-in-out
spring: duration-500 cubic-bezier(0.34, 1.56, 0.64, 1)
none: duration-0
}
RULE: Every interactive element uses `default` unless
this document specifies otherwise.
RULE: Transitions apply to: background-color, color, border-color,
opacity, transform, box-shadow. Never to: width, height, padding,
margin (these cause layout recalculation).
```
#### 2.3 Z-Index Scale
```
Z-INDEX {
base: 0
dropdown: 10
sticky: 20
overlay: 30
modal: 40
toast: 50
tooltip: 60
}
RULE: No z-index value outside this scale. Ever.
```
#### 2.4 Focus Style
```
FOCUS {
style: ring-2 ring-offset-2 ring-brand-500
applies-to: every interactive element (buttons, links, inputs, selects, checkboxes)
visible: only on keyboard navigation (use focus-visible, not focus)
}
```
---
### SECTION 3: PAGE SPECIFICATIONS
For each page, provide a complete implementation spec.
#### Page: ${page_name}
**Route:** `/exact-route-path`
**Layout:** ${which_layout_wrapper_to_use}
**Data requirements:** [what data this page needs, from where]
##### Page Structure (top to bottom)
```
PAGE STRUCTURE: ${page_name}
├── Section: Hero

├── Section: Testimonials
│ └── Component: TestimonialSlider
└── Section: CTA
├── Component: Heading (h2)
└── Component: CTA Button (primary, lg)
```
##### Section-by-Section Specs
For each section:
**${section_name}**
```
LAYOUT {
container: max-w-[1280px] mx-auto px-6 (mobile: px-4)
direction: flex-col (mobile) → flex-row (desktop)
gap: gap-8 (32px)

element: h2
class: text-3xl font-bold text-gray-900 (mobile: text-2xl)
max-width: max-w-[640px]
}
body {
text: "${exact_body_text_or_content_source}"
class: text-lg text-gray-600 leading-relaxed (mobile: text-base)
max-width: max-w-[540px]
}
}
GRID (if applicable) {
columns: grid-cols-3 (tablet: grid-cols-2) (mobile: grid-cols-1)
gap: gap-6 (24px)
items: ${what_component_renders_in_each_cell}
alignment: items-start
}
ANIMATION (if applicable) {
type: fade-up on scroll
trigger: when section enters viewport (threshold: 0.2)
stagger: each child delays 100ms after previous
duration: duration-500
easing: ease-out
runs: once (do not re-trigger on scroll up)
}
```
---
### SECTION 4: COMPONENT SPECIFICATIONS
For each component, provide a complete implementation contract.
#### Component: ${componentname}
**File:** `src/components/${path}/${componentname}.tsx`
**Purpose:** [one sentence — what this component does]
##### Props Interface
```typescript
interface ${componentname}Props {
variant: 'primary' | 'secondary' | 'ghost' // visual style
size: 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg' // dimensions
disabled?: boolean // default: false
loading?: boolean // default: false
icon?: React.ReactNode // optional leading icon
children: React.ReactNode // label content
onClick?: () => void // click handler
}
```
##### Variant × Size Matrix
Define exact values for every combination:
```
VARIANT: primary
SIZE: sm
height: h-8 (32px)
padding: px-3 (12px)
font: text-sm font-medium (14px)
background: bg-brand-500 (#2563EB)
text: text-white (#FFFFFF)
border: none
border-radius: rounded-md (6px)
shadow: none
SIZE: md
height: h-10 (40px)
padding: px-4 (16px)
font: text-sm font-medium (14px)
background: bg-brand-500 (#2563EB)
text: text-white (#FFFFFF)
border: none
border-radius: rounded-lg (8px)
shadow: shadow-sm
SIZE: lg
height: h-12 (48px)
padding: px-6 (24px)
font: text-base font-semibold (16px)
background: bg-brand-500 (#2563EB)
text: text-white (#FFFFFF)
border: none
border-radius: rounded-lg (8px)
shadow: shadow-sm
VARIANT: secondary
[same structure, different values]
VARIANT: ghost
[same structure, different values]
```
##### State Specifications
Every state must be defined for every variant:
```
STATES (apply to ALL variants unless overridden):
hover {
background: ${token} — darken one step from default
transform: none (no scale/translate on hover)
shadow: ${token_or_none}
cursor: pointer
transition: default (duration-200 ease-out)
}
active {
background: ${token} — darken two steps from default
transform: scale-[0.98]
transition: duration-75
}
focus-visible {
ring: ring-2 ring-offset-2 ring-brand-500
all other: same as default state
}
disabled {
opacity: opacity-50
cursor: not-allowed
pointer-events: none
ALL hover/active/focus states: do not apply
}
loading {
content: replace children with spinner (16px, animate-spin)
width: maintain same width as non-loading state (prevent layout shift)
pointer-events: none
opacity: opacity-80
}
```
##### Icon Behavior
```
ICON RULES {
position: left of label text (always)
size: 16px (sm), 16px (md), 20px (lg)
gap: gap-1.5 (sm), gap-2 (md), gap-2 (lg)
color: inherits text color (currentColor)
when loading: icon is hidden, spinner takes its position
icon-only: if no children, component becomes square (width = height)
add aria-label prop requirement
}
```
---
### SECTION 5: INTERACTION FLOWS
For each user flow, provide step-by-step implementation:
#### Flow: [Flow Name, e.g., "User Signs Up"]
```
TRIGGER: user clicks "Sign Up" button in header
STEP 1: Modal opens
animation: fade-in (opacity 0→1, duration-200)
backdrop: bg-black/50, click-outside closes modal
focus: trap focus inside modal, auto-focus first input
body: scroll-lock (prevent background scroll)
STEP 2: User fills form
fields: ${list_exact_fields_with_validation_rules}
validation: on blur (not on change — reduces noise)
field: email {
type: email
