mockup-prototype（样机原型）

Mockup Prototype

End-to-end workflow for creating, iterating, and sharing interactive HTML mockups using Copilot CLI.

When to Use This Skill

• User asks to "create a mockup" or "prototype a UI"
• User wants to compare design alternatives side by side
• User asks to "deploy" or "share" a mockup with colleagues
• User wants a quick visual exploration of a feature idea

Phase 1: Generate

Ask where this mockup belongs

Before creating the file, ask the user which repo to work in. The mockup file lives in the repo's local clone from the start - no copying later.

1. Ask: "Which repo should this mockup live in?" (e.g., acme/feature-explorer, contoso/design-lab)
2. Find the local clone (check ~/GitHub/<org>/<repo> or ~/GitHub/<repo>)
3. Look for existing folder conventions: docs/mockups/, considerations/, designs/, proposals/. If none exist, use docs/mockups/.
4. Create the mockup at <repo>/docs/mockups/<feature-name>/mockup.html

Create the mockup

Create a single self-contained HTML file with all CSS inline. No external dependencies, no build steps.

Style guide

Match the visual style of the product being mocked up. If the user specifies a product or brand, replicate its look (colors, spacing, typography). If no specific product is mentioned, use a clean dark theme as a sensible default:

Use inline SVGs for icons. Do not reference external icon libraries or CDNs.

Comparing multiple options

When showing alternatives, use a tabbed layout:

<!-- Sticky nav -->
<div class="option-nav">
  <button class="option-btn active" onclick="show('a')">A. Option name</button>
  <button class="option-btn" onclick="show('b')">B. Option name</button>
</div>

<!-- Each option in its own section -->
<div class="mockup-section active" id="section-a">
  <!-- mockup content -->
  <!-- pros/cons narrative INSIDE this div -->
</div>
<div class="mockup-section" id="section-b">
  <!-- mockup content -->
  <!-- pros/cons narrative INSIDE this div -->
</div>

<script>
function show(id) {
  document.querySelectorAll('.mockup-section').forEach(s => s.classList.remove('active'));
  document.querySelectorAll('.option-btn').forEach(b => b.classList.remove('active'));
  document.getElementById('section-' + id).classList.add('active');
  event.target.classList.add('active');
}
</script>

Key rules:

• Narrative blocks (pros/cons) go inside each .mockup-section, not outside
• Only one section visible at a time via CSS (display:none / display:block)
• Use realistic data, not placeholder text

Preview locally

After creating the file, always open it in the browser automatically:

open <repo-path>/docs/mockups/<feature-name>/mockup.html   # macOS
xdg-open <repo-path>/docs/mockups/<feature-name>/mockup.html  # Linux

Phase 2: Iterate

All changes stay local. Do not push to the remote until the user explicitly asks to deploy or push.

1. Edit the HTML file based on user feedback
2. Always re-open in browser after each change so the user can see updates immediately
3. Common iteration patterns:

- Adding/removing/reordering options - Adding pros/cons narrative below each option - Tweaking layout, spacing, colors - Fixing visual bugs reported via screenshots

Important: Do not git commit, git push, or create PRs during this phase. The user will tell you when they are ready.

Phase 3: Deploy for sharing

Only start this phase when the user explicitly asks to deploy, push, or share.

Confirm public visibility

Before deploying, remind the user:

This will deploy the mockup to a public URL. Confirm the content is safe to share externally (see the Security section above).

If the user has not acknowledged this, ask for confirmation before proceeding.

Choose a deployment target

Ask the user where to deploy:

• GitHub Pages (default): deploys via the repo's Pages site. Requires merging to main.
• Vercel: deploys instantly via vercel deploy --prod. No PR or merge required.

If the user has already stated a preference (e.g., "deploy to Vercel"), skip the prompt.

Option A: GitHub Pages

1. Ensure GitHub Pages is enabled on the target repo: gh api repos/<owner>/<repo>/pages --jq '.html_url' # If not enabled: gh api repos/<owner>/<repo>/pages -X POST -f source='{"branch":"main","path":"/"}'
2. Add a README.md in the mockup directory with a summary of the states/options.
3. Create branch, commit, push, PR, and merge in one flow: git checkout -b <user>/mockup-<feature-name> git add docs/mockups/<feature-name>/ git commit -m "Add <feature-name> mockup" git push origin <user>/mockup-<feature-name> gh pr create --title "<Feature> mockup" --body "..." # Wait for checks, then merge gh pr merge <number> --squash --delete-branch The merge to main is required for Pages to deploy. Do not leave the PR open.
4. Open the live URL in the browser after merge: PAGES_URL=$(gh api repos/<owner>/<repo>/pages --jq '.html_url') open "${PAGES_URL}docs/mockups/<feature-name>/mockup.html"

Option B: Vercel

1. Ensure the Vercel CLI is installed and authenticated: vercel --version || npm install -g vercel vercel whoami # confirm logged in
2. Prepare the deploy directory. Vercel serves index.html by default. Copy the mockup file so it works at the root URL: cp <repo-path>/docs/mockups/<feature-name>/mockup.html \ <repo-path>/docs/mockups/<feature-name>/index.html
3. Deploy from the mockup directory: cd <repo-path>/docs/mockups/<feature-name> vercel deploy --prod --yes
4. Clean up the temporary index.html (keep mockup.html as the source of truth): rm <repo-path>/docs/mockups/<feature-name>/index.html
5. Open the live URL in the browser. Vercel prints the production URL and alias on deploy. Open the alias URL (e.g., https://<project>.vercel.app).
6. Optionally commit and push the mockup to the repo for project history. This is separate from the Vercel deploy and follows the same branch/PR/merge flow as GitHub Pages. Only do this if the user asks.

Security

Public visibility

Both GitHub Pages and Vercel deploy content to publicly accessible URLs by default. Before deploying, confirm the mockup does not contain:

• Real user data, PII, or production database content
• API keys, tokens, secrets, or credentials
• Internal-only URLs, hostnames, or infrastructure details
• Proprietary business logic or unreleased feature specifics that should stay confidential

Content guidelines

• Use synthetic, fictional data in all mockups (fake usernames, placeholder repos, made-up org names)
• Do not embed real screenshots of internal tools unless cleared for public sharing
• Do not reference external CDNs, scripts, or stylesheets. All assets must be inline. This prevents supply-chain risks and ensures the file works offline.

Credential hygiene

• The skill uses gh CLI and vercel CLI, which rely on locally stored auth tokens. These tokens are never written into mockup files.
• Do not hardcode tokens, passwords, or auth headers in any HTML, CSS, or JS within the mockup.

Guidelines

• Single self-contained HTML file. No build tools, no npm, no frameworks.
• Save the mockup directly in the target repo's local clone from the start.
• Do not maintain two copies of the mockup (e.g., Desktop + repo). One file, one location.
• Do not push changes during iteration. Local only until the user says to deploy.
• Always auto-open the local file in browser during iteration.
• Always auto-open the live Pages URL after deploy.
• Use descriptive file and folder names (e.g., user-profile-card, not mockup-1).
