Design, critique, or refine artifact forms with the Mission-Driven Morphogenesis Theory. Use when shaping vehicles, mecha, props, architecture, tools, interfaces, stage devices, or any artifact whose form must express mission, origin, environment, operation, history, readability, and production constraints.
Use this skill to turn a theory of artifact form into concrete design decisions. Treat it as a packaged working form of the source theory supplied by the user. Treat the theory as a three-way balance between context, readability, and manufacturability.
Make macro form follow mission and context first. Make micro structure follow function and operation second. Never let surface styling override causality or production reality.
Load references/canon.md when you need the full theory, notation, propositions, or formal definitions.
Load when you need intake prompts, a design checklist, evaluation tests, or output-shaping templates.
If the reference files are missing, continue with this file alone and recreate them before deeper work.
references/checklists.mdCheck every proposal against these questions:
Reject designs that are readable but causally empty. Reject designs that are causal but unreadable. Reject designs that are both convincing on paper and impossible to realize.
Use concise output when the user wants a quick judgment. Use proposal mode when the user needs a design rationale with tradeoffs. Use checklist mode when the user wants a repeatable studio workflow. Use critique mode when the user wants pressure-testing against the theory.
