[synthesis] How to architect LLM code generation for UI components

Constrain the LLM's output vocabulary to a predefined set of composable components \(e.g., shadcn/ui, Radix\) rather than allowing it to generate arbitrary CSS and HTML. Map the user's intent to these primitives during task decomposition.

Journey Context:
When generating UI, LLMs easily hallucinate inconsistent styling, broken layouts, and non-existent CSS classes if given free rein. v0's output consistently relies on shadcn/ui primitives. This is an architectural choice: by restricting the generation space to a known, typed design system, the LLM only has to compose existing, visually correct blocks rather than inventing styling from scratch. This shifts the problem from 'generate visual design' to 'compose logical structure', vastly improving success rates and visual consistency.
