Image-to-Code Conversion

GPT-4o can interpret UI screenshots and generate matching code. Specifying the framework, styling approach, and component library upfront avoids code that's technically correct but in the wrong tech stack. Banning lorem ipsum forces realistic content that's actually useful.

Prompt
Convert the attached {{imageType}} into working code.

**Target technology:**
- Framework: {{framework}}
- Styling: {{stylingApproach}}
- Component library: {{componentLibrary}}

**Conversion requirements:**
- Match the layout, spacing, and visual hierarchy as closely as possible
- Use semantic HTML elements
- Make it responsive (mobile-first, breakpoints at sm/md/lg)
- Implement {{interactiveElements}} as functional components with proper state
- Use {{colorApproach}} for colors (extract from image or use {{colorSystem}})

**Do NOT include:**
- Placeholder "lorem ipsum" text — use realistic content that matches the screenshot
- Inline styles — use {{stylingApproach}} classes
- Images — use placeholder divs with aspect ratios matching the screenshot

Output the complete, runnable code in a single file unless it needs to be split for {{reason}}.

Task Decomposition Agent

Forcing the agent to plan before acting prevents premature execution and wasted steps. Explicit dependency mapping enables parallel execution and catches logical gaps early.

Tool Selection Agent

The ReAct pattern (Reason + Act) creates an explicit reasoning trace that improves tool selection accuracy. The error-handling rule prevents infinite retry loops.

Prompt Compressor

Explicitly requiring all functional requirements to be preserved prevents the model from over-compressing and losing critical instructions.

Memory Management Agent

Explicit memory read/write instructions create agents that improve over time. Categorization keeps memories organized, and the deduplication rule prevents context bloat.
