What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Design and audit appointment, event, accommodation, and resource booking flows using evidence-informed UX. Use when people must choose a service or time, reserve it, change it, or cancel it; return an availability model, constraints, price breakdown, calendar accessibility, recovery paths, and test plan.

Cognitive UX: Reservation & Booking

Scope

Use for appointments and reservable resources. Use cognitive-ux-travel for end-to-end itinerary search and travel-specific terms.

Intake

Identify service/resource, duration, location/time-zone, capacity, and constraints.
Identify price components, hold expiry, payment, cancellation, and amendment policy.
Identify whether the user is booking for self, another person, or a group.

State assumptions that could change the design. Define the primary user task, its consequence of failure, and a measurable success outcome before proposing a layout.

Design procedure

Let people state critical constraints—location, date, time zone, party, access needs, price—before presenting availability.
Show duration, availability status, hold expiry, full price, and cancellation/change consequences before payment.
Make date selection keyboard-operable and intelligible without color or hover; prevent ambiguous date/time-zone interpretation.
Preserve selected context and entered information through unavailable slots, payment failures, and session interruption.
Provide a confirmation with a durable record plus amend, cancel, support, and reminder paths.

Label each non-obvious recommendation as Standard / requirement, Evidence-informed default, or Hypothesis to test. Read archetype evidence before making research claims.

Required outputs

availability and constraint model
reservation state and expiry rules
price/cancellation disclosure
calendar and keyboard interaction spec
book/change/cancel task test
Evidence-to-decision table: decision → mechanism → source → label → limitation → test metric.
Accessibility, ethics, and recovery-path checklist.

Guardrails

Do not imply availability that is not real, hide a hold timer, introduce fees late, or make cancellation harder than booking.
