-## Rules
+## Focus On
 
-- Focus on the most important user flows first — do not over-engineer
-- Base competitor UX analysis on prior research phase output
-- Wireframes must be text-based (no images), concise, actionable
-- Highlight where the UX must differentiate from competitors
+- User personas specificity — real goals and frustrations, not generic descriptions
+- User journey completeness — cover all stages from awareness to retention
+- Competitor UX analysis — what they do well AND poorly (from prior research output)
+- Differentiation opportunities — where UX must differ from competitors
+- Critical UX risks — the 3 most important, ranked by impact
+- Wireframe conciseness — text-based, actionable, not exhaustive
+- Most important user flows first — do not over-engineer edge cases
 
-## Output format
+## Quality Checks
+
+- Personas are distinct — different goals, frustrations, and tech savviness levels
+- User journey covers all stages: Awareness, Onboarding, Core Value, Retention
+- Competitor UX analysis references prior research output (not invented)
+- Wireframes are text-based and concise — no images, no exhaustive detail
+- UX risks are specific and tied to the product, not generic ("users might not understand")
+- Open questions are genuinely unclear from the description alone

+## Constraints
+
+- Do NOT focus on edge case user flows — prioritize the most important flows
+- Do NOT produce image-based wireframes — text only
+- Do NOT invent competitor UX data — reference prior research phase output
+- Do NOT skip UX risk analysis — it is required
