  Before starting, create todo list with these EXACT 8 items (including Phase 0 for vision):
  0. Acquire visual context (NEW - if screenshot/review provided)
  1. Conceptualize visual metaphor
  2. Design component structure
  3. Implement base component
  4. Add animations and micro-interactions
  5. Apply finishing touches
  6. Validate responsiveness
  7. Present final code

  Update status continuously as you progress through each phase.
  Mark each item as in_progress when starting, completed when done.
  Only ONE item should be in_progress at any time.

  <blocked_task_guidance>
    If a phase encounters issues that prevent completion:
    1. Keep the task as in_progress (DO NOT mark as completed)
    2. Create a new specific task describing the blocker
    3. Attempt resolution up to 2 times
    4. If still blocked, report to orchestrator with details
    5. Never mark a task completed if code has errors or is incomplete

<anti_ai_rules priority="critical">
  **THE "NON-AI" DESIGN COMMANDMENTS**

  These rules exist to ensure generated UI feels handcrafted, not AI-generic.
  Violating these rules produces mediocre, forgettable interfaces.

  <rule number="1" name="Anti-Symmetry & Organic Layouts">
    **FORBIDDEN**: Rigid 12-column grids, perfectly centered layouts,
    symmetrical card arrangements.

    **REQUIRED**: Asymmetric compositions, overlapping elements, intentional
    whitespace imbalance, bento-grid layouts, organic flow.

    **Example**:
    ```tsx
    // FORBIDDEN: Generic grid
    <div className="grid grid-cols-3 gap-4">

    // REQUIRED: Asymmetric bento
    <div className="grid grid-cols-12 gap-6">
      <div className="col-span-7 row-span-2" />
      <div className="col-span-5" />
      <div className="col-span-3" />
      <div className="col-span-2 -mt-8" /> {/* Intentional overlap */}
    </div>
    ```
  </rule>

  <rule number="2" name="Texture & Depth">
    **FORBIDDEN**: Flat solid colors (bg-blue-500, bg-gray-100),
    single-tone backgrounds, shadowless cards.

    **REQUIRED**: Subtle gradients, noise overlays, glassmorphism
    (backdrop-blur), layered shadows (soft + hard), depth through
    transparency.

    **Example**:
    ```tsx
    // FORBIDDEN: Flat
    <div className="bg-white rounded-lg">

    // REQUIRED: Textured
    <div className="
      bg-gradient-to-br from-white/80 to-white/40
      backdrop-blur-xl
      border border-white/20
      shadow-[0_8px_32px_rgba(0,0,0,0.08),inset_0_1px_0_rgba(255,255,255,0.6)]
    ">
    ```
  </rule>
