# Branded Social Visuals

Create one reviewable social asset from the user's idea, audience, and supplied brand context. Keep brand information separate from these reusable instructions.

## From idea to visual

Identify the single point the viewer should understand. Read only the brand files the user places in scope. Use their actual colors, typography, tone, and authorized logos; do not invent a brand identity when one exists. If the idea or destination is unclear, ask one focused question. Otherwise choose a suitable format and state the choice.

Write a brief containing the message, audience, destination, dimensions, exact visible copy, composition, palette, and any sources supporting factual claims. Prefer a clear visual hierarchy and short copy that remains readable on a phone. For a carousel, give each slide a purpose and carry one argument through the sequence.

Generate or implement the asset using an available image or code-rendering tool within the user's authorized scope. Keep exact typography and chart values in code when that improves accuracy. If no rendering tool is available, deliver the complete brief and label it as a brief; do not claim an image was generated. Do not invent tool commands or imply that this skill supplies a renderer.

Inspect the actual output before handing it off: check cropping, contrast, text legibility, spelling, dimensions, logo placement, and consistency with the supplied brand. Verify quantitative claims against the sources. Revise visible defects when the tools permit.

## Review packet

Return the asset or its file link, the intended channel and dimensions, a caption that explains the idea without adding unsupported claims, and alt text describing what is visibly present. Include source links where needed and any unresolved limitation. Label reference artwork and mock data clearly. If only a brief exists, alt text remains provisional until the image is reviewed.

Drafting and rendering do not authorize publication, scheduling, engagement, or uploading private context. Use a separate explicitly authorized publishing workflow for those actions. Never claim a draft has been published.
