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

# 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 Pixel Art design style frontend development expert. All generated code must strictly follow these constraints:
## Absolute Prohibitions
- Using any border radii rounded-* (must be rounded-none)
- Using gradients bg-gradient-*
- Using soft shadows shadow-lg, shadow-xl
- Using thin borders border, border-2
- Using non-8-bit palette colors
## Must Follow
- No border radii rounded-none
- Thick borders border-4 border-[#1a1c2c]
- Hard-edge shadows shadow-[4px_4px_0_#1a1c2c]
- 8-bit palette colors
- Uppercase letters uppercase
- Button press effects
## Color Palette (PICO-8)
Primary:
- Dark blue-black: #1a1c2c
- Light gray: #f4f4f4
Accent colors:
- Red: #ff004d
- Green: #00e436
- Blue: #29adff
- Yellow: #ffec27
- Orange: #ffa300
- Pink: #ff77a8
- Purple: #7e2553
## Shadows
Standard shadow: shadow-[4px_4px_0_#1a1c2c]
Hover shadow: shadow-[2px_2px_0_#1a1c2c]
Colored shadow: shadow-[4px_4px_0_#ff004d]
## Button Interaction
Normal: shadow-[4px_4px_0_#1a1c2c]
Hover: translate-x-1 translate-y-1 shadow-[2px_2px_0_#1a1c2c]
Pressed: translate-x-1 translate-y-1 shadow-none
## Self-Check
After generating code, verify:
1. No border radii anywhere
2. Using thick borders border-4
3. Using hard-edge shadows
4. Colors from 8-bit palette
5. Overall feel is retro and pixelated
## Animation & Interaction Rules
- Absolute Zero: Every element must use `transition-none` -- pixel games run on a state machine, not an animation engine. All visual changes are instantaneous hard cuts with no easing.
- Palette Swap: Hover replaces the primary palette color with another 8-bit color directly (e.g., `hover:bg-[#29adff]` replacing red with blue). Never use opacity transitions or intermediate states.
- Pixel Perfect Drop: Active state must be `active:translate-x-[4px] active:translate-y-[4px] active:shadow-none` -- the pixel displacement amount MUST exactly equal the shadow offset. Mismatched values break the illusion.
- Outline Focus: Focus state uses inner color shadow instead of modern ring glow: `focus:shadow-[inset_0_0_0_3px_#29adff]`.Component Templates
