🐋 OOUX Facilitator Skill

An AI agent skill that actively facilitates Object-Oriented UX (OOUX) sessions — guiding you through Sophia Prater's ORCA process step by step.

Instead of just explaining the methodology, this skill turns your AI agent into a workshop facilitator: it asks questions, synthesizes your answers into structured artifacts, challenges assumptions, and coaches you through each round of ORCA.

Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, Copilot, and 19 other agents.

🧠 The ORCA Process

The skill guides you through the ORCA process — a 15-step framework for structuring digital products around objects (the nouns in your system) before designing screens or flows.

✨ Features

• Coached Facilitation: The agent doesn't just "do" OOUX; it coaches you through it, asking questions and challenging assumptions.
• Artifact Generation: Automatically produces formatted Object Maps, CTA Matrices, and Nested Object Matrices.
• Three Engagement Modes:
  • Quick ORCA (~20 min): For rapid brainstorming and initial object mapping.
  • Working ORCA (~60 min): For scoped, prioritized system architecture.
  • Full ORCA (Multi-session): For rigorous, production-ready product design.

🛠️ How to Use

Simply tell your agent what you're working on. You can start with a fresh idea or feed it existing materials:

• "Help me structure a fitness tracking app using OOUX."
• "Run a noun foraging session on this PRD: [link or paste text]"
• "I have a messy database schema. Can we audit it for broken objects?"

The facilitator will intake your context and suggest the best starting point in the ORCA process.
