Scope
Smart import, refinement UX, semantic editing
01
Purpose
Smart Import and AI Refinement help users move from rough input to structured prompt work without starting from a blank canvas. The system accepts messy material, including raw prompt text, screenshots, notes, and fragments, then helps convert it into organized composition inputs that can be edited, reused, and refined inside VibeFarm.
02
Constraint
AI assistance becomes dangerous when it rewrites too much, hides its reasoning, or pushes users away from their original intent. The challenge was to make the system helpful without making it takeover-driven. Import and refinement needed to accelerate structure, not flatten the user’s judgment into generic generated output.
03
Interaction Model
Users can bring in rough material, let the system interpret and structure it, then continue editing inside the workspace. Refinement happens progressively: the user can improve specific parts of the composition rather than regenerate the entire prompt. This keeps the workflow grounded in the user’s intent while still giving them meaningful AI leverage.
04
System Logic
The system separates assistance from authorship. Import helps translate unstructured input into usable prompt components, while refinement tools operate on targeted pieces of the workflow. This makes AI function like a structuring layer inside the product, not a black-box generator that replaces the user’s working process.
05
Tradeoffs
AI-first classification over brittle regex (slower + costs tokens, but doesn't break on edge cases)
06
Result
The result is an AI-assisted workflow that helps users structure, improve, and preserve prompt work without losing control. It demonstrates product judgment around generative interaction design, user intent preservation, structured import, semantic refinement, cost control, and building AI features that serve the workflow instead of becoming the workflow.
