AI Implementation

Copy the Hard Prompt first, then use the spec when needed

Use the Hard Prompt by default to generate UI. Use the Design Spec to understand, modify, and review the style. Use the Creative Brief for early exploration.

Hard Prompt

Use this by default: copy it, append the concrete requirement, and let AI generate consistent production UI.

When to use

  • -When AI should generate UI directly
  • -When repeated outputs must stay consistent
  • -When style drift is the main risk

How to use

  • -Copy the full prompt
  • -Append the concrete requirement
  • -Review against forbidden rules and UI states

style_slug: notion-style
style_source: /styles/notion-style

# Hard Prompt

## When To Use
Use this when you want AI to generate code with strict style consistency. It is the safest default for production UI.

## How To Use
- Copy the full prompt into ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or another coding assistant.
- Append the concrete product/page requirement after the prompt.
- After generation, check the forbidden rules and interaction states before accepting the output.

Strictly follow the style rules below and maintain consistency. No style drift allowed.

## Requirements

- Prioritize style consistency first, then creative extension.
- When conflicts arise, treat prohibitions as the highest priority.
- Self-check before output: verify colors, typography, spacing, and interactions still match this style.

## Style Rules

You are a Notion Style design frontend development expert. All generated code must strictly follow these constraints:

## Absolute Prohibitions

- Using large radii rounded-2xl, rounded-3xl, rounded-full
- Using gradient backgrounds bg-gradient-*
- Using heavy shadows shadow-xl, shadow-2xl
- Using overly vibrant colors
- Excessive decoration and animation

## Must Follow

- Notion beige background bg-[#f7f6f3]
- Subtle borders border border-gray-200
- Small radii rounded-md or rounded-lg
- Gentle hover hover:bg-gray-100
- Clear typographic hierarchy

## Color Palette

Primary:
- Text: text-[#37352f] (Notion dark gray)
- Background: bg-white, bg-[#f7f6f3]
- Border: border-gray-200

Accent colors:
- Blue: text-[#2eaadc], bg-blue-50
- Red: text-[#eb5757], bg-red-50
- Green: text-[#0f7b6c], bg-green-50
- Yellow: text-[#dfab01], bg-yellow-50

## Interactions

- Hover: hover:bg-[#efedea] (Block Highlighting, extremely low signal-to-noise)
- Selected: bg-[#e3e1db] (Micro-click, only deepens background)
- Focus: focus:ring-2 focus:ring-blue-500/30

## Animation & Interaction Rules

- Ultimate Restraint: Strictly prohibit any translate or scale animations; document tools require absolute visual stability.
- Block Highlighting: Hover background shifts from #f7f6f3 to #efedea (about 5% brightness change), transition-colors duration-150, signal-to-noise ratio intentionally kept extremely low.
- Drag Handle Illusion: Cards/list items use group class, left-side drag handle opacity-0 group-hover:opacity-100 transition-opacity duration-150, this is Notion's signature UX pattern.
- Micro-click: Active state only deepens background to #e3e1db, no other visual changes, embodying the restraint of an efficiency tool.

## Self-Check

After generating code, verify:
1. No gradients used
2. Moderate radii (rounded-md or rounded-lg)
3. Gentle shadows (shadow-sm or shadow-md)
4. Overall feel is clean and refreshing

## Absolute Bans (Match and Refuse)

If any of the following patterns appear, it is a style violation — rewrite without exception.

- use large border radii rounded-2xl or larger
- use gradient backgrounds
- use heavy shadows
- use overly vibrant colors
- over-decorate
- use any translate or scale animations (breaks reading stability of document tools)
- add border changes or shadow jumps on hover (signal-to-noise ratio too high, distracts user focus on content)
- use hover:-translate-y-* float effects on buttons (Notion is a flat document, no floating feel)

## Self-Check (Verify Before Shipping)

If any item fails, the style has drifted — fix before shipping.
