UI Spec Generator

Generate structured page-component-function hierarchy from design resources and test cases.

Prerequisites

MCP Servers Required

• Pencil MCP: Read .pen design files via mcp__pencil__* tools
• Figma MCP: Read Figma designs (configured in .claude/mcp.json)

Input Resources

Workflow

Step 1: Gather Design Context

1. Read specs/design/style.pen to understand design tokens (colors, fonts, spacing)
2. Read specs/design/pages.md to get page list and Figma URLs
3. Use Figma MCP to fetch component structure from Figma links
4. Read existing .pen files in specs/design/components/ to catalog current components

Step 2: Analyze Test Cases

1. Read all files in specs/testcases/*.md
2. Extract implicit UI requirements from test case descriptions:
   • What data needs to be displayed?
   • What user actions are described?
   • What state changes occur?
3. Map requirements to pages and components

Step 3: Gap Analysis

Compare test case requirements against existing components:

• Covered: Test case UI needs are met by existing components
• Extendable: Existing component can be modified (see component-reuse-criteria.md)
• Missing: New component needed

Step 4: Design Missing Components

For gaps identified:

1. Reference the corresponding screenshot in specs/design/assets/images/
2. Use Figma MCP to get detailed component structure if Figma link exists
3. Follow existing design patterns from style.pen
4. Prefer extending existing components over creating new ones

Step 5: Generate pages.yaml

Output to specs/design/pages.yaml following the format in output-format.md.

Structure:

pages:
  - id: page-id
    name: 页面名称
    route: /path
    sections:
      - id: section-id
        name: 区块名称
        components:
          - id: component-id
            name: 组件名称
            type: card|list-item|button|...
            data_source: post|category|user|...
            fields: [field1, field2]
            actions: [action1, action2]

Using Figma MCP

Extract Figma file key and node ID from URLs in pages.md:

https://www.figma.com/design/{file_key}/...?node-id={node_id}

Use Figma MCP tools to:

1. Get file structure and component hierarchy
2. Identify grouped elements (frames, groups)
3. Extract component names and relationships

Component Reuse Decision

Before creating new components, check references/component-reuse-criteria.md:

1. Visual similarity with existing components
2. Functional compatibility
3. Non-breaking extension possibility

Data Type References

When specifying data_source, use types from specs/data/types.md:

• category - 活动/赛事
• post - 帖子/提案
• user - 用户
• group - 团队
• resource - 资源文件
• rule - 规则
• interaction - 互动

Output Validation

After generating pages.yaml:

1. Verify all pages from pages.md are included
2. Verify test case UI requirements are addressed
3. Confirm component reuse is maximized
4. Check YAML syntax validity
