Icon set brief
Brief for a cohesive icon set — style, weight, grid, list of icons, deliverables.
Stops icon Frankensets (mix of Lucide + Heroicons + emoji).
The prompt
Copy this into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any assistant you already use — then paste your own product + icon list underneath it.
Write an icon set brief: **Style** (line / filled / duo / etc.) **Stroke weight** (px at base size) **Grid** (24×24 / 20×20) **Corner radius** (px) **Visual references** (2-3 icon sets) **Icon list** (numbered, grouped by category) **Tricky icons + intent notes** (the ones with ambiguous metaphors) **Deliverables** (SVG, React component, light + dark) Rules: - Match icons to action names, not metaphors only the designer understands. - Avoid clichés (light bulb = idea, gear = settings — OK; but trash = "remove" not "destroy").
