ss-feedback
The ss-feedback Claude Code skill generates loading, empty, error, and success states for data-dependent UI components and pages. Use it when implementing comprehensive user feedback across a component's lifecycle, following the StyleSeed design language specifications for skeleton loaders, empty state messaging, error recovery, and action confirmations. Do not use it for copywriting alone, accessibility fixes in existing states, brand-new component creation, or backend analytics implementation.

# UX Feedback States Generator
## When NOT to use
- For only the words inside a state → use `/ss-copy`
- For accessibility issues in existing states → use `/ss-a11y`
- For brand-new component creation → use `/ss-component`
- For analytics or error-logging plumbing — UI presentation only
Target: **$ARGUMENTS**
## Instructions
1. Read the target file and identify all data-dependent areas.
2. Read the design language reference:
- `DESIGN-LANGUAGE.md` sections on Loading States (Skeleton), Empty States, Error States
3. For each data-dependent area, implement ALL 4 states:
### State 1: Loading (Skeleton)
```tsx
// Skeleton must match the final layout shape
<div className="bg-card rounded-2xl p-6 shadow-[var(--shadow-card)]">
<div className="flex items-center gap-2 mb-3">
<div className="size-7 bg-surface-muted rounded-lg animate-pulse" />
<div className="h-3 w-16 bg-surface-muted rounded animate-pulse" />
</div>
<div className="h-9 w-24 bg-surface-muted rounded-lg animate-pulse mb-3" />
<div className="h-3 w-12 bg-surface-muted rounded animate-pulse" />
</div>
```
Rules:
- Show skeleton for 300ms minimum (prevent flash)
- Delay skeleton display by 300ms (fast loads skip skeleton entirely)
- Use `animate-pulse` (1.5s cycle)
- Match skeleton shapes to real content dimensions
- Never use spinners inside cards
### State 2: Empty (Zero Data)
```tsx
<EmptyState
icon={PackageIcon}
title="No activity yet"
description="Create your first project to get started."
action={<Button>Create Project</Button>}
/>
```
Rules:
- Center-aligned in the card
- Icon: 32px, `text-text-tertiary`
- Title: 14px, `text-text-secondary`
- Always suggest a next action
- Zero values show as "0" (don't hide or dash)
### State 3: Error (Load Failed)
```tsx
<div className="flex flex-col items-center justify-center py-8 text-center">
<AlertCircle className="size-8 text-destructive mb-3" />
<p className="text-[14px] text-text-secondary mb-4">Couldn't load the data</p>
<Button variant="brandGhost" size="sm" onClick={retry}>Try again</Button>
</div>
```
Rules:
- Partial failure: only affected card shows error, rest loads normally
- Full page failure: full-screen EmptyState with retry
- Error message: plain language, blame the system
- Always provide retry button
### State 4: Success (Action Feedback)
```tsx
// Toast notification for action confirmations
toast("Changes saved")
// With undo for destructive actions
toast("Item deleted", { action: { label: "Undo", onClick: handleUndo } })
```
Rules:
- Info toast: 3s display
- Action toast (with undo): 5s display
- Toast position: above BottomNav
- One toast at a time (new replaces old)
4. Implementation pattern:
```tsx
function DataCard({ data, isLoading, error }) {
if (isLoading) return <DataCardSkeleton />
if (error) return <DataCardError onRetry={refetch} />
if (!data || data.length === 0) return <DataCardEmpty />
return <DataCardContent data={data} />
}
```
5. Check `prefers-reduced-motion` — disable `animate-pulse` when reduced motion is preferred.Audit a component or page for accessibility issues and fix them

Generate a new UI component following the StyleSeed design conventions

Quick automated lint — detects common design system violations in seconds
Apply a named StyleSeed motion to a component — either one of the 5 personality seeds (Spring/Silk/Snap/Float/Pulse × entrance/exit/hover/press/layout) or a distinctive keyword move from the motion library (toggle-flip, toggle-curtain, reveal-blur, pop-in, shimmer, …). Translates vibe words into framer-motion code from one source of truth.
