Skill0 starsChanged 5 months agoMITView on GitHub

Establish and enforce per-client brand fidelity using the DESIGN.md standard (google-labs-code/design.md). Use whenever starting work for a client, creating any ad/landing-page/creative, or when brand colors/fonts/spacing are needed. Auto-extracts a client's visual identity into a validated DESIGN.md, keeps a central registry, and feeds the tokens into image-studio (statics), fb-ad-video-studio (video), and landing pages. Triggers: "set up brand for <client>", "make a DESIGN.md", "match the client's brand", "what are their brand colors", "new client onboarding", any creative work that must be on-brand.

    company-context

    Interview the user to build or update a reusable company context file for AI tools — what the company does, its offer, clients, personas, positioning, voice, and the questions clients ask most. Use when the user says "build our company context", "create company context", "set up business context for AI", "update our company context", or wants AI to answer clients and write content in the company's voice without re-explaining the business each time. Produces company-context.md.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

2 rules. 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 15 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 0

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 2

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    image-studio (statics): before rendering, check for a project DESIGN.md.

    line 36
  2. Very specific:

    Landing pages: run tokens-to-css.py → drop the :root block into the page stylesheet (or the Tailwind snippet into the theme).

    line 38

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 15 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

SKILL.md

brand-kit

One verified source of truth for a client's visual identity, in the open DESIGN.md format (google-labs-code/design.md). Every ad and landing page reads from it, so nothing is ever off-brand — and nothing is ever fabricated.

The hard rule

Never invent or assume a client's brand colors, fonts, or identity. If a verified DESIGN.md doesn't exist, you extract from real assets and flag every uncertainty for human confirmation. A guessed hex is a defect, not a placeholder. This skill exists to make that rule structural.

What DESIGN.md is

Plain text: YAML front-matter tokens (name, colors, typography, rounded, spacing, components) + a markdown body of rationale (Overview, Colors, Typography, Layout, Elevation & Depth, Shapes, Components, Do's and Don'ts). Tokens are normative; prose says how to apply them. Token aliasing via {colors.primary}. Validated by npx @google/design.md lint (broken refs + WCAG contrast) and diff (brand regression). See references/spec-summary.md (offline copy of the spec).

Where it lives

  • Registry (authoritative): ~/claude_work/brand-kits/<client-slug>/DESIGN.md
  • Per project (copy): the ad or landing-page project gets a copy via scripts/sync.sh, which writes a header pointing back to the registry and can diff to detect drift.

Per-client workflow

  1. Extract — python3 scripts/extract-brand.py --url <client-site> [--logo logo.png] --client <slug>. Screenshots the site, samples real palette (PIL quantize), scrapes CSS for hex values + font-family, drafts brand-kits/<slug>/DESIGN.md. Anything not confidently detected is written as # TODO: VERIFY — never a guess.
  2. Verify (human gate) — review the draft with the user. Resolve every TODO: VERIFY. Do not proceed to creative work with unresolved TODOs.
  3. Lint — bash scripts/lint.sh brand-kits/<slug>/DESIGN.md. Fix contrast/ref errors. This is the quality gate.
  4. Register — the verified, lint-clean file is now authoritative in the registry.
  5. Propagate — bash scripts/sync.sh <slug> <project-dir> copies it into the ad/landing-page project.
  6. Consume — python3 scripts/tokens-to-css.py emits :root{} CSS custom properties and a Tailwind theme snippet from the tokens. Every downstream skill uses these instead of hardcoded values.

Integration (the point)

Full detail in references/integration.md. Summary:

  • image-studio (statics): before rendering, check for a project DESIGN.md. Map colors.* → the template :root vars (--accent, --ink, …), typography.* → font stacks. The reverse-template color-sampling step becomes extract-brand.py. No DESIGN.md → extract + ask, don't guess.
  • fb-ad-video-studio (video): HyperFrames reads design.md/DESIGN.md natively. sync.sh the client file into the composition project root → captions, lockups, kinetic type inherit brand automatically. Also map tokens → the template --accent/--ink :root vars.
  • Landing pages: run tokens-to-css.py → drop the :root block into the page stylesheet (or the Tailwind snippet into the theme). Lint gates contrast before deploy.

When to use / not

Use: client onboarding; any creative that must be on-brand; resolving "what are their colors"; auditing an existing asset against the brand (diff).

Don't use: generic/demo work with no real client (use neutral placeholders — do not invent a brand). One-off internal scratch.

Client launch package (presentation-grade)

The internal DESIGN.md (and DESIGN.preview.*) carry provenance, corrections, and lint notes — never send those to a client. For a launch call, generate the client-safe deliverable:

python3 scripts/client-brand-sheet.py <registry>/DESIGN.md \
  --client "<Client Name>" --agency "<Your Agency>" \
  --ads-dir <client>/creatives/campaign_<n> \
  --out <client>/launch-package
node scripts/render-sheet.js <client>/launch-package/brand-foundations.html

Produces brand-foundations.pdf + .png: a single branded one-pager (palette with friendly labels, type, components, the client's brand colors styling the sheet itself, and an optional strip of the first ad concepts). All internal language is stripped; it refuses to run if any TODO: VERIFY remains. Requires Playwright (uses the sibling image-studio skill's copy if not installed here).

Host teams: sequence this into onboarding as intake → brand extract/verify/lint → sync/tokens → initial concepts → launch package (a project-level onboarding SOP can codify the exact commands).

Output

A registered, lint-clean brand-kits/<slug>/DESIGN.md + generated CSS/Tailwind tokens wired into the client's projects, and (for launch) a client-safe launch-package/brand-foundations.pdf. The DESIGN.md is the source of truth; everything else reads from it.
