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

# 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
STYLE: VHS Aesthetic
TYPE: 80-90s VHS tape visual aesthetic

MUST USE:
- Background: Black (#000000) or deep purple (#1a0a2e)
- Primary accent: Magenta (#ff00ff) for borders, glows, highlights
- Secondary accent: Cyan (#00ffff) for text, secondary elements
- Tertiary: Yellow (#ffff00) for warnings/timestamps, Green (#00ff00) for status
- All text: Monospace font, uppercase preferred
- Scanlines: Apply repeating-linear-gradient overlay
- Color separation: Use text-shadow with offset magenta and cyan
- Timestamps: Show "REC" indicator, date/time in corner
- Noise: Add grain/noise texture overlay with low opacity
- Tracking distortion: Slight horizontal offset on hover/animation

MUST AVOID:
- Light/white backgrounds
- Pastel or muted colors
- Serif or sans-serif body fonts
- Large border-radius (max 2px)
- Smooth gradients
- Subtle/standard shadows (use neon glow only)

Animation & Interaction Rules:
- Tape Tracking Jitter: Completely abandon smooth animations. On hover, use extremely short duration-75 for crisp, even slightly harsh visual feedback (e.g., instant skew-x-2 or translate-x-1), simulating VHS tape tracking errors.
- Chroma Split Glow: Neon shadows must not just glow -- they must be "misaligned." On hover, magenta and cyan text-shadow or box-shadow must pull apart in opposite directions, simulating tape color dispersion.
- Scanline Distortion: Scanline overlays on cards should speed up vertical scrolling or instantly change opacity (e.g., from opacity-10 to opacity-30) when the container is hovered.
- Playback Snap: Active (:active) state should simulate pressing a heavy VCR physical button. Eliminate all glow and produce a harsh sink (active:scale-95 active:shadow-none).
