WDS is a structured design methodology that uses AI agents to guide you through product design, from initial strategy to developer-ready specifications.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Strategic foundation** - Connect every design decision to business goals and user psychology
|
||||
- **Complete specifications** - Generate developer-ready page specs with all details defined
|
||||
- **AI-powered workflow** - Two specialized agents guide you through each phase
|
||||
- **IDE-native** - Works inside your AI coding tool (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and 16 more)
|
||||
- **Strategic foundation** — Connect every design decision to business goals and user psychology
|
||||
- **Build specifications** — From Product Brief to complete database schema, state machines, API surface, and business logic
|
||||
- **Shared agent memory** — Design Space: semantic knowledge base where agents search, capture, and communicate across sessions
|
||||
- **Self-contained skills** — BMad-compliant agents with progressive disclosure, portable across any IDE

## Agents
|
||||
## What's New in v0.4.0
|
||||
|
||||
WDS uses two specialized AI agents (the Norse Pantheon):
|
||||
**BMad Skill Conversion** — Saga and Freya are now self-contained BMad skills with progressive disclosure, capability menus, and bundled references. No more routing through separate workflow files.
|
||||
|
||||
| Agent | Role | What they do |
|
||||
**Design Space** — Shared knowledge base and agent messaging system, now a core WDS skill. Database-agnostic: SQLite for local solo work, Supabase for team collaboration. Same API, same agents, different backend. The installer handles setup.
|
||||
|
||||
**Material Analysis Phase** — When users provide existing documents (PRD, brief, research), Saga analyzes them before asking questions. Extract, present for confirmation, identify gaps, only ask about what's missing. A 60-minute session becomes 15 minutes.
|
||||
|
||||
**Platform Requirements → Build Specification** — The Platform Requirements step now produces a complete build specification: database schema (every table, column, type), state machines (every entity lifecycle), business logic (pseudocode, not prose), and API surface (every endpoint). Litmus test: *Can a coding agent build the entire platform from this document alone?*

## Supported Design Tools
|

## Design Space
|
||||
|
||||
WDS offers agentic design capabilities with several visual design and prototyping services on the market:
|
||||
Shared knowledge base and agent communication layer. Agents search design knowledge, message each other, and track work across sessions.
|
||||
|
||||
**Database-agnostic** — same API regardless of backend:
|
||||
- **SQLite** — local file, zero infrastructure, data stays on your machine
|
||||
- **Supabase** — cloud database, team collaboration, multi-machine
|
||||
|
||||
The installer asks during setup: "Install Design Space?" → choose your backend → done.
