# Step 21: Existing Brand Assets
|
|
|
|
## STEP GOAL:
|
|
Document any existing visual identity that must be respected or built upon.
|
|
|
|
## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
|
|
|
|
### Universal Rules:
|
|
- NEVER generate content without user input
|
|
- CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
|
|
- CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
|
|
- YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
|
|
- YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT in your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
|
|
|
|
### Role Reinforcement:
|
|
- You are a Strategic Business Analyst documenting existing brand assets and constraints
|
|
- If you already have been given a name, communication_style and persona, continue to use those while playing this new role
|
|
- We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
|
|
- You bring structured thinking and facilitation skills, user brings domain expertise and product vision
|
|
- Maintain collaborative and strategic tone throughout
|
|
|
|
### Step-Specific Rules:
|
|
- Focus: Inventory assets, assess quality, determine keep/refresh/replace, capture brand constraints
|
|
- FORBIDDEN: Do not skip partnership/affiliation visual requirements
|
|
- Approach: Inventory each asset type, assess status, document constraints from partnerships
|
|
|
|
## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
|
|
- Primary goal: Existing brand assets documented with keep/refresh/replace decisions
|
|
- Save/document outputs appropriately
|
|
- Avoid generating content without user input
|
|
|
|
## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
|
|
- Available context: Product Brief, visual direction initialization
|
|
- Focus: Existing visual identity assets and constraints
|
|
- Limits: Documenting what exists, not creating new assets
|
|
- Dependencies: Step 20 completed
|
|
|
|
## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
|
|
|
|
### 1. Inventory Existing Assets
|
|
|
|
For each asset type, ask and document:
|
|
|
|
**Logo:**
|
|
- Does a logo exist?
|
|
- File formats available? (vector, PNG, etc.)
|
|
- Variations? (horizontal, stacked, icon only)
|
|
- Quality? (professional, DIY, needs refresh)
|
|
|
|
**Colors:**
|
|
- Are there established brand colors?
|
|
- Where are they used? (signage, vehicles, uniforms)
|
|
- Are they documented? (hex codes, Pantone)
|
|
- Do they need to be maintained?
|
|
|
|
**Typography:**
|
|
- Any fonts already in use?
|
|
- On signage, business cards, etc.?
|
|
|
|
**Imagery:**
|
|
- Existing photos of business, team, work?
|
|
- Quality level?
|
|
- Usage rights?
|
|
|
|
### 2. Assess Partnership/Affiliation Requirements
|
|
|
|
Ask: "Are there any partner brands or affiliations that affect the visual identity?"
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
- Franchise requirements
|
|
- Certification badges
|
|
- Industry associations
|
|
|
|
Document any visual constraints from partnerships.
|
|
|
|
### 3. Determine What to Keep vs. Refresh
|
|
|
|
For each asset:
|
|
- **Keep as-is** - Works well, established recognition
|
|
- **Refresh** - Good foundation, needs polish
|
|
- **Replace** - Doesn't work, starting fresh
|
|
- **Create** - Doesn't exist yet
|
|
|
|
### 4. Collect Assets
|
|
|
|
If user has assets to share:
|
|
- Request files be placed in `visual-references/existing/`
|
|
- Or note locations where assets can be obtained
|
|
|
|
### 5. Document in Output
|
|
- Fill in Existing Brand Assets section
|
|
- Note brand constraints from partnerships
|
|
|
|
### 6. Design Log Update
|
|
After completing this step, update the design log:
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
### Step 21: Existing Brand Assets
|
|
**Q:** What existing visual identity assets exist?
|
|
**A:** [User responses - summarized]
|
|
**Documented in:** visual-direction.md (Existing Brand Assets section)
|
|
**Key insights:** [Important decisions or revelations]
|
|
**Status:** Complete
|
|
**Timestamp:** [HH:MM]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### N. Present MENU OPTIONS
|
|
Display: "**Select an Option:** [C] Continue to next step"
|
|
|
|
#### Menu Handling Logic:
|
|
- IF C: Load, read entire file, then execute {nextStepFile}
|
|
- IF M: Return to {workflowFile} or {activityWorkflowFile}
|
|
- IF Any other comments or queries: help user respond then [Redisplay Menu Options]
|
|
|
|
#### EXECUTION RULES:
|
|
- ALWAYS halt and wait for user input after presenting menu
|
|
- User can chat or ask questions - always respond and then redisplay menu options
|
|
|
|
## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
|
|
ONLY WHEN step objectives are met and user confirms will you then load and read fully `{nextStepFile}`.
|
|

## SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
|
|
|
