- Added validation for --style-variants in generate command to ensure it matches actual style directories, preventing errors during prototype generation.
- Updated ui-instantiate-prototypes.sh script to validate style variants against existing directories, providing warnings and auto-correcting when necessary.
- Improved clarity in generate.md documentation regarding parameters, default values, and auto-detection mechanisms.
- Created a comprehensive UI Design Workflow Parameter Clarity Report to address inconsistencies in parameter naming and documentation across extract, consolidate, and generate commands.
- Unified parameter naming conventions to reduce confusion and improve user experience.
- Enhanced user guidance with a new README.md for the UI Design Workflow, outlining best practices and common mistakes.
- Removed the generation of a unified consolidation report in the consolidate.md file, streamlining the output structure.
- Updated the extract.md file to prioritize the --base-path argument for session management and improved error handling for style variant detection.
- Enhanced generate.md to enforce critical requirements for layout templates, ensuring independence from other targets.
- Added a comprehensive analysis report for the ui-instantiate-prototypes.sh script, detailing issues with style variant mismatches and proposing solutions for validation and prevention.
Changes agent task delegation from direct file writing to labeled output format, giving main command control over file paths. Fixes path inconsistency issues when called from explore-auto workflow.

Consolidate separate page/component modes into a unified target system to
reduce code duplication and simplify the workflow parameter model.
Changes:
- Merge --pages and --components into unified --targets parameter
- Add --target-type (auto|page|component) with intelligent detection
- Remove Phase 0d from explore-auto.md (131 lines of duplicate logic)
- Implement detect_target_type() helper for automatic classification
- Update generate.md to support adaptive wrapper generation
- Full HTML structure for pages
- Minimal wrapper for isolated components
- Update imitate-auto.md and update.md for parameter consistency
- Enhance ui-design-agent.md with adaptive design capabilities
- Maintain full backward compatibility with legacy syntax
Benefits:
- Code reduction: -35% in target inference logic (255 → 165 lines)
- Maintenance: Single unified logic path vs dual implementations
- Extensibility: Foundation for future mixed-mode support
- UX: Simpler parameter model with automatic type detection
Technical Details:
- explore-auto.md: 605 lines changed (unified Phase 0c)
- generate.md: 353 lines changed (targets + adaptive wrapper)
- Net change: +685 insertions, -504 deletions across 5 files
All existing workflows remain compatible via legacy parameter support.

Fix layout strategy generation issues across UI design commands:
- consolidate.md: Enhance layout synthesis prompt with explicit examples and requirements
* Add concrete 3-layout example to clarify expected output structure
* Emphasize requirement to generate EXACTLY N strategies (not more, not less)
* Add sequential ID validation (layout-1, layout-2, ..., layout-N)
- explore-auto.md: Add missing --layout-variants parameter to consolidate command call
* Phase 2 now passes layout_variants count to ensure correct strategy generation
* Prevents mismatch between requested layouts and generated strategies
- extract.md: Update next step suggestions to include --layout-variants parameter
* Users now see optional [--layout-variants <count>] in command examples
* Improves discoverability of layout customization option
Before: consolidate would only generate default 3 layouts even when user specified different count
After: consolidate receives and respects user-specified layout variant count

Enhance UI Design Workflow with intelligent design trend research capabilities:
- Add design trend analysis in extract phase using Exa MCP API
- Integrate layout strategy planning with current UI/UX patterns (2024-2025)
- Update consolidation command to include dynamic layout generation
- Add ui-instantiate-prototypes.sh script for prototype management
- Simplify path structure by removing nested .design directories
- Update workflow architecture documentation
This integration enables context-aware design decisions based on modern design trends
and improves the quality of generated UI prototypes.

- Introduced a new command `/workflow:ui-design:imitate-auto` for imitating UI designs from URLs or images.
- Streamlined execution model with 5 phases: initialization, screenshot capture, style extraction, token adaptation, and prototype generation.
- Emphasized single style and layout generation, bypassing the consolidate step for improved speed.
- Implemented automated screenshot capture with fallback to manual input if necessary.
- Enhanced error handling for missing references and screenshot failures.
- Provided detailed documentation and examples for usage and execution flows.
