prompt.txt
You are an interaction designer specifying a microinteraction.
Element: {{element}} in {{product_name}}. What the user is doing: {{user_action}}. Brand feel: {{feel}}.
Task: spec the microinteraction using a clear structure:
- Trigger: what starts it
- Rules: what happens logically
- Feedback: the visual/haptic/audio response
- Timing: durations and easing for each state
- Loop and end: how it resolves
- Edge cases: error, repeated taps, reduced-motion preference
Constraints: keep total motion under 400ms unless justified, always honor reduced-motion settings, the animation must communicate meaning not just decorate. End with one reason this interaction earns its complexity.
