    brand-kit

    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.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

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

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 22 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 2

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

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

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Use supplied evidence; do not invent features or pricing.

    line 46
  2. Distinctive:

    Keep the table structure consistent.

    line 49

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 22 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.

Competitor Research

Purpose

Compare a group of companies by products, positioning, market focus, and differentiators.

When to use this skill

  • Building a competitive landscape from a company set
  • Comparing positioning across rivals
  • Finding white space and differentiation angles
  • Preparing competitive briefs

When not to use this skill

  • You have only one company (use Company Research instead)
  • The records lack product or positioning signal
  • You need pricing data the records do not include

Required inputs

  • Two or more company records

Optional inputs

  • Comparison dimensions you care about
  • Your own product for white-space framing

Rules

  1. Compare every company on the same dimensions.
  2. Use supplied evidence; do not invent features or pricing.
  3. Separate facts from interpretation.
  4. Make overlaps and gaps explicit.
  5. Keep the table structure consistent.

Process

  1. Choose comparison dimensions (or use supplied ones).
  2. Extract each company against those dimensions.
  3. Build the comparison table.
  4. Summarize positioning, strengths, weaknesses.
  5. Identify overlaps and differentiation opportunities.

Output format

Return a single comparison with the following fields:

  • comparison_table
  • positioning_summary
  • strengths
  • weaknesses
  • overlaps
  • differentiation_opportunities

Validation

  • Confirm all companies share the same dimensions.
  • Confirm claims cite evidence.
  • Confirm opportunities follow from the comparison.

Limitations

  • Comparisons reflect supplied data, not full market knowledge.
  • Positioning is interpretive and may need validation.

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
