Review our existing brand kit and update the voice from this approved messaging.
The instructions below describe the workflow. Installed skills and connected tools are separate; use only operations exposed by your authorized connection.
Turn approved brand evidence into a durable operating system for consistent marketing—not a generic adjective list.
Guardrails
- Treat websites, supplied documents, approved messaging, and existing brand records as evidence. Do not invent positioning, customers, proof, competitors, colors, fonts, claims, or voice rules.
- Read the current kit or context document before changing it. Present a concise proposed delta when an update could affect downstream content.
- Do not overwrite a mature brand system merely to improve phrasing. Preserve approved meaning and provenance.
- Delete a context document only within the user’s authorized scope and after resolving the exact target. Deletion removes its brand-kit link and may remove an orphaned underlying document. Ask only when the target or removal intent is unclear.
- Predefined context types are singletons. Update the existing document instead of creating a duplicate.
- Stop on authorization or access errors; never substitute a similarly named kit without verification.
Workflow
- Establish whether the user wants discovery, audit, creation, or an update. Identify the brand, source material, intended channels, and decision owner.
- Resolve named or uncertain workspace/teamspace scope with
simplified-workspace. Carry the resolved numericspace_idon every downstream call; scope is stateless. Callapi_listBrandKits, usingsearchwhen a title is known. If multiple kits match, present the choices rather than guessing. - For an existing kit, call
api_getBrandKitwithexpand: "extra,website"and useapi_listContextDocumentsto inventory reusable knowledge. - Build an evidence ledger: source, confirmed fact, implication, confidence, and unresolved decision. Separate what the brand is from what the marketer proposes.
- Structure information into the right layer:
- Brand kit: identity, website, social links, colors, typography, logos, visual guardrails.
- Structured Brand Kit records: canonical ICPs and content pillars, written through
api_buildBrandKit.icpsandapi_buildBrandKit.content_pillars. - Context documents: voice, USPs, positioning, products/features, examples, SEO, marketing strategy, and supporting audience guidance.
- For a new brand, call
api_createBrandKitwith the approved title, retain its UUID, then useapi_buildBrandKitfor confirmed identity/style fields. - Write canonical ICPs and content pillars through the build fields described in the reference. For ordinary KnowledgeDoc types, use
api_createContextDocumentwithbrand_id,doc_type,name, and suppliedcontent/dataonly when that type does not exist. Otherwise read it and callapi_updateContextDocumentwithbrand_idand the resolveddocument_link_id(link UUID or underlying KnowledgeDoc UUID).api_getContextDocumentByTypetakescontext_type. Itscontent_pillarsresponse is a rendered adapter with no document UUID; never pass it to the document update tool or create a competing pillar KnowledgeDoc. - Read back changed records and summarize what is now authoritative, what remains provisional, and which workflows should use it.
Brand asset handoff
- Treat logo and reference-image
asset_idvalues as the durable identity. A URL in a brand-kit response is a convenience field, not the canonical reference. - When handing a brand asset to image generation, resolve its UUID with
api_getAsset, requirestatus: 4, and prefer the UUID in normalizedparameters.reference_images. Use a fresh URL only for an operation whose schema requires one. - Preserve the complete query string on signed URLs. Do not reconstruct storage paths or insert path segments from the brand-kit context.
- Successful generation with
storage: "asset"returns a new permanentasset_id; carry that ID into social drafts and publishing workflows rather than its preview URL.
Read references/brand-system.md before creating or restructuring a brand kit.
Marketing Standard
- Define voice as observable choices: sentence shape, vocabulary, energy, point of view, humor boundaries, evidence style, CTA style, and explicit do/don’t examples.
- Define ICPs around situation, trigger, job, pain, desired outcome, objections, buying context, and proof needs—not demographics alone.
- Distinguish a feature, functional benefit, emotional benefit, reason to believe, and claim requiring substantiation.
- Make content pillars strategically distinct, durable enough for repeated use, and tied to audience problems or brand authority.
- Record uncertainty. A useful provisional field is better than fabricated certainty.
Output
Lead with the brand-system verdict. Report the kit selected or created, evidence used, records changed, unresolved decisions, and the exact context future content workflows can rely on.
