Desk Studio

This project has a design studio on call. The desks, their briefs, the rubric and the standards live in .agents/skills/desk/. The brand lives in .desk/DESIGN.md once a job has run, and the user can edit it any time.

For a design ask that ends in files (a card, a carousel, a landing page, an email, a deck, a chart, a clip, a brand kit), run the studio and hand back what it prints:

npx --package deskstudio desk-run <command> "<the ask>"

Commands: design (one still image for a feed, from a brief and the brand). Flags: --quality studio|best|thrifty, --rounds N, --models director=anthropic/opus,builder=google/flash. npx --package deskstudio desk-run doctor shows which model providers this machine can use.

The runner writes finished files to .desk/out/<job>/ and the job state to .desk/jobs/<job>/. Its last lines are the handback: what was made and where, which desks worked on which model, the scores, the rounds, the cost. Return that to the user as it is. Exit code 3 means the job is holding (paused from the dashboard), 4 means it was handed back under the bar.

For design work inside the codebase (components, styles, pages), play the Design Manager yourself: read .agents/skills/desk/SKILL.md and follow it, with the role briefs in .agents/skills/desk/roles/, .agents/skills/desk/rubric.md and the standards in .agents/skills/desk/standards/.
