Framer

Build the following focused alternative to Framer. This is a deliberately limited personal or small-team substitute, not parity with the paid service.

WORKING SLICE
Build a responsive marketing page from editable layout stacks, bind a small article collection and publish a static revision with a preview.

SETUP AND ARCHITECTURE
Use TypeScript, React, a Node build process and versioned JSON content with static HTML/CSS output. Prerequisites: Licensed assets, a user-owned static hosting target and sample desktop/mobile content; forms need a separately authenticated server endpoint. Before integrating anything, record actual versions and permissions, plus model files or provider limits only where used, in the README; make unavailable dependencies visible rather than simulating success.

DOMAIN MODEL AND INVARIANTS
Store Page, ComponentTree, BreakpointOverride, CollectionItem and BuildManifest; layout overrides belong to named breakpoints and draft edits cannot mutate the live manifest.

IMPLEMENTATION CONTRACT
Keep drafts separate from the published manifest. Escape content, allowlist components and URLs, and publish a complete revision atomically with rollback to the preceding revision. Provide an input/setup view, the main work view, and a review/export view appropriate to this workflow. Preserve the last saved state if a job or save fails. Include empty, loading, permission-denied, partial and retryable-error states. Log identifiers and error categories without secret values or unnecessary private content.

APP-SPECIFIC BOUNDARY AND RECOVERY
Choose constrained flex/grid sections over an unrestricted design tool. Arbitrary code embeds, advanced motion, managed domains and visual parity with the original are deferred.

ACCEPTANCE SCENARIO
Change a mobile stack order and publish a long article title; desktop layout stays intact and both preview/export show the same wrapping and links. Also reopen the app after an interrupted operation, confirm the saved record/export remains inspectable, and document the recovery action. These are implementation acceptance requirements, not a claim that this guide has been tested.

DELIVERY
Deliver a runnable repository with migrations or project-format versioning, a non-sensitive example, environment/permission setup, the exact manual acceptance steps, and a backup/export-and-restore walkthrough. Implement the working slice before optional integrations; list any deferred paid-product capabilities honestly. Do not add capabilities outside the working slice just to resemble the original product.

PROJECT RULES FOR AGENTS.md
Keep the domain invariants above executable at the write boundary. Propose scope changes before adding providers or permissions. Never fabricate source evidence, publish results, identity matches or successful delivery. Preserve user originals and require an explicit confirmation for destructive changes or external publication.

# AGENTS.md — Build guide for Framer

## Project scope
Build a responsive marketing page from editable layout stacks, bind a small article collection and publish a static revision with a preview.

Catalogue verdict: kinda. You can build a simple AI/site generator and host static pages, but Framer's animation/design editor, CMS, hosting, templates, and publishing polish are real product depth.
Use the implementation prompt below to define the deliverable. Complete each phase's acceptance checks before extending the scope.

## Working agreement
- Inspect the repository and its existing instructions before choosing paths, dependencies or commands. Keep one coherent stack and explain changes to the proposed architecture.
- Plan a vertical slice that accepts a real input and produces the useful output described below. Persist only the state the prompt calls for; respect memory-only and upstream-managed workflows. Use fixtures only when they are clearly labelled.
- After scaffolding, document the actual install, development, check and build commands in README and keep them synchronized with the package or project manifest. Do not report commands as successful unless they ran.
- Work in small steps. At handoff, list implemented flows, checks actually performed, remaining blockers, and any credentials or provider setup the owner must supply.
- Do not publish, spend money, contact customers, delete source data or run irreversible migrations without the project owner's authorization.

## Prerequisites
- Runtime and tools: TypeScript, React, a Node build process and versioned JSON content with static HTML/CSS output.
- Before starting: Licensed assets, a user-owned static hosting target and sample desktop/mobile content; forms need a separately authenticated server endpoint.

## Stack and architecture
- TypeScript, React, a Node build process and versioned JSON content with static HTML/CSS output
- Data design: Store Page, ComponentTree, BreakpointOverride, CollectionItem and BuildManifest; layout overrides belong to named breakpoints and draft edits cannot mutate the live manifest.
- Setup: Licensed assets, a user-owned static hosting target and sample desktop/mobile content; forms need a separately authenticated server endpoint

## Security and data integrity
- Keep drafts separate from the published manifest. Escape content, allowlist components and URLs, and publish a complete revision atomically with rollback to the preceding revision.
- Choose constrained flex/grid sections over an unrestricted design tool. Arbitrary code embeds, advanced motion, managed domains and visual parity with the original are deferred.
- Keep secrets outside client bundles and exported projects; document what leaves the device and make retention/deletion controls visible.

## Agent implementation rules
- Project rule — domain: Store Page, ComponentTree, BreakpointOverride, CollectionItem and BuildManifest; layout overrides belong to named breakpoints and draft edits cannot mutate the live manifest.
- Project rule — scope and recovery: Choose constrained flex/grid sections over an unrestricted design tool. Arbitrary code embeds, advanced motion, managed domains and visual parity with the original are deferred.
- Project rule — acceptance: Change a mobile stack order and publish a long article title; desktop layout stays intact and both preview/export show the same wrapping and links.
- Project rule — delivery: document real setup commands and permissions; do not claim a build, accuracy level, performance result or security certification that has not been demonstrated.

## Optional agent skills and references
- Recommended skill: [frontend-design](https://github.com/anthropics/skills/blob/main/skills/frontend-design/SKILL.md) — compose the proposed responsive site sections with deliberate typography, spacing and honest content. Follow the maintainer's installation instructions and match its requirements to the chosen runtime.
- Recommended skill: [seo-audit](https://github.com/coreyhaines31/marketingskills/blob/main/skills/seo-audit/SKILL.md) — review crawlability, metadata and evidence-based on-page findings without promising search rankings. Follow the maintainer's installation instructions and match its requirements to the chosen runtime.

Read the linked SKILL.md and its dependencies before adding a skill. Select only the skills matching this project's runtime and task; their documentation does not supply API access, credentials or approval to perform external actions. Pin the reviewed revision where the tool supports it. Follow the chosen agent's documented project-level installation mechanism.

## Distribution ideas
These are optional planning notes. Obtain the owner's approval before publishing or contacting anyone.
- Demonstrate this working slice using synthetic or explicitly authorized non-sensitive examples: Build a responsive marketing page from editable layout stacks, bind a small article collection and publish a static revision with a preview.
- Share a synthetic example export and the acceptance walkthrough; keep real customer, health, financial and source data private: Change a mobile stack order and publish a long article title; desktop layout stays intact and both preview/export show the same wrapping and links.
- State the limits before asking someone to replace their existing tool: Choose constrained flex/grid sections over an unrestricted design tool. Arbitrary code embeds, advanced motion, managed domains and visual parity with the original are deferred.

## Engineering roadmap
1. Phase 1 — Pin the working slice and create its example input: Build a responsive marketing page from editable layout stacks, bind a small article collection and publish a static revision with a preview. Confirm setup: Licensed assets, a user-owned static hosting target and sample desktop/mobile content; forms need a separately authenticated server endpoint.
2. Phase 2 — Implement persistence and write-time invariants before decorating the UI: Store Page, ComponentTree, BreakpointOverride, CollectionItem and BuildManifest; layout overrides belong to named breakpoints and draft edits cannot mutate the live manifest.
3. Phase 3 — Connect the working view to real saved state. Keep drafts separate from the published manifest. Escape content, allowlist components and URLs, and publish a complete revision atomically with rollback to the preceding revision.
4. Phase 4 — Expose the app-specific limits and recovery path in context: Choose constrained flex/grid sections over an unrestricted design tool. Arbitrary code embeds, advanced motion, managed domains and visual parity with the original are deferred.
5. Phase 5 — Walk through this concrete acceptance case and preserve its exported evidence: Change a mobile stack order and publish a long article title; desktop layout stays intact and both preview/export show the same wrapping and links. Finish the README and backup/restore instructions; report unfinished capabilities explicitly.

## Completion evidence
Demonstrate the prompt's acceptance scenarios against the scoped workflow. Include setup from a clean checkout and failure recovery. Check persistence across restart and export/restore only for the state the prompt says to store; for memory-only tools, confirm that temporary content is discarded as specified. Record actual results and remaining limitations. A detailed plan alone does not establish a working replacement.
