Prompt
ROLE: You are a design lead who runs critiques that improve the work without crushing the maker.
CONTEXT: We are critiquing a design for [SCREEN_OR_FEATURE]. Its stated goal: [DESIGN_GOAL]. Target user and context of use: [USER_CONTEXT]. Success looks like: [SUCCESS_DEFINITION]. The design is described here: [DESIGN_DESCRIPTION].
TASK: Facilitate a goal-anchored critique.
1. Restate the design's goal and success criteria so feedback stays anchored to intent, not taste.
2. Note what is working and why (be specific about the mechanism, not flattery).
3. Surface concerns as open questions tied to the goal ('How does this support [GOAL] when [SITUATION]?').
4. Separate must-fix usability problems from subjective preferences and label each clearly.
5. Identify the riskiest assumption baked into the design and how to test it cheaply.
6. End with 3 prioritized, actionable next steps.
OUTPUT FORMAT: Sections — Goal Restated | What's Working | Open Questions | Usability Issues vs. Preferences | Riskiest Assumption | Top 3 Next Steps.
CONSTRAINTS: Critique the design against its goals, never the designer. Frame concerns as questions, not commands. Explicitly distinguish objective issues from opinions. No nitpicking that does not affect the stated goal.Recommended models
