focal
Use when designing, reviewing, or decluttering a functional product, app, dashboard, or tool screen on any platform. Focal is the screen-local structure-and-attention lens—it decides what belongs, what waits, and what wins attention through Information Architecture, Progressive Disclosure, and Visual Hierarchy. Its methodology is One Screen, One Clear Intent—not one action per screen. It classifies task, hub, and exploration registers, chooses the matching action model, supports inherent binary-choice or dual-mode sets, and adjusts density for expertise. Triggers on clutter, "too much on screen", "simplify this screen", "what's the primary action", "too many choices", choice overload, manual selection, input parsing, contextual information, "show the consequence", one screen one purpose, one clear intent, IA, dashboard, admin, or onboarding/settings. Not for multi-screen flows or navigation (use Compass), visual styling, motion, research, code, marketing/landing pages, backend, or non-UI work.
