Workflow: Edit-Design

Make targeted changes to an already generated design.

Steps

1. Identify the Screen

Use list_screens or get_screen to find the correct projectId and screenId.

2. Formulate the Edit Prompt

Be specific about the changes you want to make. Do not just say "fix it".

• Location: "Change the color of the [primary button] in the [hero section]..."
• Visuals: "...to a darker blue (#004080) and add a subtle shadow."
• Structure: "Add a secondary button next to the primary one with the text 'Learn More'."

3. Apply the Edit

Call the mcp_StitchMCP_edit_screens tool.

{
  "projectId": "...",
  "selectedScreenIds": ["..."],
  "prompt": "[Your target edit prompt]"
}

4. Present AI Feedback

Always show the text description and suggestions from outputComponents to the user.

5. Download Design Assets

After editing, download the updated HTML and screenshot urls from outputComponents to the .stitch/designs directory, overwriting previous versions to ensure the local files reflect the latest edits.

6. Verify and Repeat

• Check the output screen to see if the changes were applied correctly.
• If more polish is needed, repeat the process with a new specific prompt.

Tips

• Keep it focused: One edit at a time is often better than a long list of changes.
• Reference components: Use professional terms like "navigation bar", "hero section", "footer", "card grid".
• Mention colors: Use hex codes for precise color matching.
