UX Microcopy Generator

Registry-first artifact boundary

When .styleseed/project.json and .styleseed/artifacts/index.json exist, resolve the requested artifact ID first, then read only .styleseed/bundles/<artifact-id>.md and .styleseed/manifests/<artifact-id>.json. Never fall back to the global legacy bundle for a registry project. Legacy projects may use .styleseed/effective-rules.md only when no registry exists.

When NOT to use

For long-form content (blog posts, docs, marketing pages) — out of scope
For full feedback state design (not just text) → use /ss-feedback
For brand voice/tone definition itself — this skill consumes a voice spec, doesn't create it
For translations to non-English languages — single-language only

Context: $0 Description: $ARGUMENTS

Read engine/UX-WRITING.md first — it's the rule set this skill applies: buttons name the action (not "Submit"), errors help instead of blame, empty states invite, money copy stays calm, one term per concept. Korean/CJK projects: see §W8 for the clear-calm-human "Toss feel" (존댓말 일관성, 사용자 관점 "내 계좌", 군더더기 빼기).

Instructions

Read the design language reference:
- DESIGN-LANGUAGE.md sections on Microcopy Tone Guide and UX Writing
Apply the voice principles:

Tone Rules

Casual but polite: Friendly, not robotic. Like talking to a helpful friend.
Active voice: "We saved your changes" not "Your changes have been saved"
Positive framing: "Free shipping on orders over $30" not "Orders under $30 have shipping fees"
Plain language: "Send money" not "Initiate transfer"
Concise: Every word must earn its place

Copy Patterns by Context

Button Labels (CTA)

Format: [Action verb] + [Object] (optional)
Good: "Place order", "Get started", "Save changes", "Try again"
Bad:  "Submit", "OK", "Click here", "Proceed to next step"

One primary CTA per screen
Label must clearly describe what happens next
Max 3 words for primary CTA

Empty States

Format: [Friendly observation] + [Suggested action]
Good: "No activity yet. Create your first project to get started."
Bad:  "No data found."

Always suggest a next action
Use a relevant icon (32px, text-text-tertiary)
Tone: encouraging, not blaming

Error Messages

Format: [What happened] + [What to do]
Good: "Couldn't load the data. Please try again."
Bad:  "Error 500: Internal Server Error"

Never show technical errors to users
Blame the system, not the user
Always provide a recovery action

Toast Notifications

Format: [Confirmation of what happened]
Good: "Saved!", "Changes applied", "Item deleted · Undo"
Bad:  "Operation completed successfully"

Max 2 lines
Include "Undo" link for reversible destructive actions
Info toasts: 3 seconds. Action toasts: 5 seconds.

Form Labels & Helpers

Label: Noun phrase ("Email address", "Password")
Placeholder: Example or hint ("name@example.com")
Helper: Format guidance ("Must be at least 8 characters")
Error: Specific issue ("This email is already registered")

Confirmation Dialogs

Title: [Question about the action]
Body: [Consequence explanation]
Primary: [Action verb] ("Delete", "Confirm")
Secondary: "Close" (not "Cancel" — avoids confusion)

Generate copy for the requested context, providing:
- Primary copy (what to display)
- Variants (if context varies)
- Do's and Don'ts for the specific context

# UX Microcopy Generator
## Registry-first artifact boundary

When `.styleseed/project.json` and `.styleseed/artifacts/index.json` exist, resolve the requested artifact ID first, then read only `.styleseed/bundles/<artifact-id>.md` and `.styleseed/manifests/<artifact-id>.json`. Never fall back to the global legacy bundle for a registry project. Legacy projects may use `.styleseed/effective-rules.md` only when no registry exists.

## When NOT to use

- For long-form content (blog posts, docs, marketing pages) — out of scope
- For full feedback state design (not just text) → use `/ss-feedback`
- For brand voice/tone definition itself — this skill consumes a voice spec, doesn't create it

Review the source

Skill source recorded

Skill instructions are recorded. This is not a runtime test, safety guarantee or compatibility certification.

Review before install: Avoid automatic install

License: MIT

Potential broker, wallet, exchange, or real-money execution surface; sandbox and explicit approval are required
This skill may touch real-money trading, broker, wallet, or exchange operations; use only in a sandbox with explicit approval.
Quality score needs review

Open full audit

Listed tools are metadata hints, not tested compatibility. Agent prompts are suggested handoffs.

Start with one small task

1Read the source. Confirm the input, expected output, dependencies and permissions.
2Ask your agent for a plan. Approve setup and any costs before running a small isolated test.
3Check the output and changed files. Report only what actually ran; keep the source revision for reproduction.

Check the source for dependencies, API keys and third-party costs. A public repository does not mean every service is free.
