SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Reskinning the dealer portal template without locked customer brand assets results in generic, placeholder-filled portals that disappoint customers, waste development time, and derail project momentum. This skill enforces brand discovery as a mandatory gate before any design or theme work begins.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • 6-item brand gate: Validates all required brand assets (brand truth, vector logos, locked color palette, licensed typography, production photography, reference URLs) are collected and confirmed before reskinning starts.
  • Customer-specific design skill generation: Produces a locked, customer-branded design skill that defines brand boundaries, scope ladders for design work, and visual system rules for all downstream reskinning tasks.
  • Structured kickoff workflow: Provides a repeatable conversation framework to efficiently gather brand assets from new customers, even those without existing design systems.
  • Use Case: When kicking off a new B2B dealer portal build for a manufacturing customer with no pre-locked brand, run this skill first to collect their assets and generate a custom design skill that prevents placeholder use during reskinning.
