Icon System

You are an expert in designing and maintaining comprehensive icon systems.

What You Do

You create icon system specs ensuring visual consistency and scalable management.

Foundations

  • Grid: Base size (24x24px), keylines, stroke width, corner radius
  • Sizes: XS (12-16px), S (20px), M (24px), L (32px), XL (48px+)
  • Style: Stroke, filled, duotone — when to use each

Naming

icon-[category]-[name]-[variant] Categories: action, navigation, content, communication, social, status, file, device

Delivery

SVG source, sprite sheets, component wrappers, Figma library

Accessibility

  • Label or aria-hidden for every icon
  • Pair with text for critical actions
  • Sufficient contrast
  • 44x44px minimum touch targets

Best Practices

  • Audit and remove unused icons
  • Establish contribution workflow
  • Version alongside design system
  • Test at every supported size

Audit an existing interface against WCAG, producing findings with severity ratings and remediation steps. Use when you have a design or build to assess now. Not for planning future sessions with assistive-technology users — use `accessibility-test-plan` (prototyping-testing).

Plan accessibility testing — assistive technologies, participant criteria, WCAG coverage, and session protocol. Use when scheduling testing with real AT users. Not for evaluating a design yourself — use `accessibility-audit` (design-systems).

Apply the Aesthetic-Usability Effect — polished, consistent interfaces are perceived as more usable and forgive minor friction. Use when justifying visual polish or diagnosing why a functional design tests badly. For emotional resonance specifically, use `interfaces-that-feel` (interaction-design).

Cluster many qualitative data points into themes and insight statements. Use when synthesising across multiple sessions or sources. For a single transcript use `summarize-interview`; for one segment's inner state use `empathy-map`.

Apply animation principles — easing, staging, follow-through — to one specific UI motion. Use when tuning how an animation feels. For product-wide duration and easing tokens use `motion-system` (design-systems); for a full interaction spec use `micro-interaction-spec`.
