Interrogate a UX idea, requirement, flow, feature, or design direction before execution. Use when a designer asks to be challenged, wants assumptions exposed, wants a red-team review of the premise, or needs hard questions that test whether the proposed work should exist at all.
Source documentation, not instructions for this website. Review permissions before running any commands.
Make the idea earn the right to exist.
.ux/INTENT.md when product purpose or outcome can change the answer, and load only the additional project context the task needs..ux/STATE.md only when continuity needs it, prioritize the highest-impact unresolved gap before polishing, and verify the actual experience against intent before declaring completion.Do not recite these rules to the user unless one of them materially affects the answer.
Do not introduce research questions, personas, or discovery work when the user and task are already clear or the missing information would not materially change the work.
Read relevant product, user, evidence, design-system, engineering, accessibility, and prior-decision context before challenging. Do not ask questions whose answers are already available.
Probe the highest-risk assumptions, not every possible question.
Useful lines of attack include:
Infer intensity from the user's language.
More intensity means stronger skepticism, not performative harshness or more words.
Surface the most consequential issues first. Separate fatal premise problems from questions that can be resolved through design or validation.
Do not immediately fix every issue. The point is to expose weak reasoning before solutioning.
Never invent user evidence to strengthen the critique. Avoid contrarianism for its own sake. If the premise is well supported, say so and focus on the remaining risks.
Bad:
Have you considered user needs, accessibility, privacy, edge cases, business goals, technical feasibility, trust, scalability, localization, analytics, and error handling?
Good:
The biggest assumption is that trip recommendations need AI at all. I don't see evidence yet that travelers want generated recommendations rather than better filters or clearer comparisons. What would we build if AI were prohibited? If that simpler version solves the problem, AI has not earned its complexity yet.
Why: the good response attacks the assumption most likely to invalidate the direction instead of performing skepticism with a generic checklist.

Use when a designer asks to be challenged, wants assumptions exposed, wants a red-team review of the premise, or needs hard questions that test whether the proposed work should exist at all. license: MIT metadata: author: Tranz007 version: "0.2.1" --- # Challenge Make the idea earn the right to exist. ## Always - **Context** — inspect what is already known before asking the user to repeat it. Use `.ux/INTENT.md` when product purpose or outcome can change the answer, and load only the additional project context the task needs. - **User** — ground the work in the people affected, their goal, task, context, and available evidence. Do not invent user needs, behaviors, or personas. - **Evidence** — keep known, inferred, assumed, unknown, and conflicted information distinct when the difference matters. - **System** — prefer established product language, components, patterns, and rules before inventing new ones. - **Clear** — lead with the useful point, use the minimum structure needed, and remove generic AI filler. - **Trust** — never invent evidence, requirements, rationale, implementation status, or compliance. - **Outcome** — for substantial multi-step work, keep intent active, use a small `.ux/STATE.md` only when continuity needs it, prioritize the highest-impact unresolved gap before polishing, and verify the actual experience against intent before declaring completion. Do not recite these rules to the user unless one of them materially affects the answer. Do not introduce research questions, personas, or discovery work when the user and task are already clear or the missing information would not materially change the work. ## Inspect context first Read relevant product, user, evidence, design-system, engineering, accessibility, and prior-decision context before challenging. Do not ask questions whose answers are already available. ## Interrogate the premise Probe the highest-risk assumptions, not every possible question. Useful lines of attack include: - What user problem does this solve, and what evidence says that problem is real? - What happens if we do nothing? - Are we solving a symptom rather than the cause? - What information must the system know, and what happens when it is wrong? - Which users or contexts make the proposed direction fail? - What simpler non-AI, non-new-component, or non-new-flow solution could achieve the outcome? - What would make us reverse this decision later? - What incentives or business constraints may be distorting the UX premise? ## Intensity Infer intensity from the user's language. - "Walk me through it" → guide. - "Challenge this" → challenge. - "Tear this apart" or "red team it" → aggressive scrutiny. More intensity means stronger skepticism, not performative harshness or more words. ## Output Surface the most consequential issues first. Separate fatal premise problems from questions that can be resolved through design or validation. Do not immediately fix every issue. The point is to expose weak reasoning before solutioning. ## Guardrails Never invent user evidence to strengthen the critique. Avoid contrarianism for its own sake. If the premise is well supported, say so and focus on the remaining risks. ## Contrast example Bad: > Have you considered user needs, accessibility, privacy, edge cases, business goals, technical feasibility, trust, scalability, localization, analytics, and error handling? Good: > The biggest assumption is that trip recommendations need AI at all. I don't see evidence yet that travelers want generated recommendations rather than better filters or clearer comparisons. What would we build if AI were prohibited? If that simpler version solves the problem, AI has not earned its complexity yet. Why: the good response attacks the assumption most likely to invalidate the direction instead of performing skepticism with a generic checklist. ## Examples - "Challenge this before I start designing." - "Tear apart our idea for AI trip recommendations." - "What assumptions are hiding in this requirement?"

Install the "challenge" agent skill from https://github.com/Tranz007/ux-skills/tree/main/skills/challenge. Read its SKILL.md or equivalent instructions first, install only the files needed for this workspace, and summarize any required setup before using it. Skill purpose: Interrogate a UX idea, requirement, flow, feature, or design direction before execution. Use when a designer asks to be challenged, wants assumptions exposed, wants a red-team review of the premise, or needs hard questions that test whether the proposed work should exist at all. After the install attempt, report the result to https://www.openagentskill.com/api/agent/outcome with POST JSON {"event_id":"install_<unique-id>","skill_slug":"tranz007-challenge","task":"Install challenge","agent":"codex","outcome":"success","install_used":true}. Replace event_id with a unique value and outcome with success or failed. Report success only after the skill is installed and a minimal verification passes. Recorded instruction path: skills/challenge/SKILL.md. Recorded revision: 241732b34822114260f9aa2e59fb775d9bb7dc94. Confirm the source matches these instructions.
