About design-get-context
Clarify the brief BEFORE any design work to avoid building the wrong thing. Interrogates goal, user, constraints, success criteria, and scope, then writes a short context doc the other design skills consume. Use when the user says "let's design X", "build a UI for Y", "get context", "clarify the brief", or kicks off any product-design task without a clear spec. First stage of the Product Design set — highest leverage for reducing rework.
