SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Turning a set of visual references into a repeatable image style is error-prone: references conflict, approvals get inferred from silence, and style packages drift without evidence. This Skill provides a controlled calibration workflow that converts references, comparison specimens, and explicit decisions into a validated, portable visual-design-language (VDL) skill package. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Controlled calibration rounds: Hold fixture content, hierarchy, and geometry fixed while varying one style variable family at a time, with explicit approval recorded per specimen. - Reference role model and decision ledger: Classify every image as style-source, structure-source, anti-reference, or approved lock, and track decisions, conflicts, and uncertainties with evidence IDs. - Package generation and validation: Scaffold a complete VDL skill with init_vdl_skill.py, then enforce structure, identity, checksums, fixtures, and approval metadata with two validators before proposing release. - Use Case: A designer wants a reusable marker-wireframe style. They supply reference photos, run controlled specimen rounds to lock palette and mark-making, generate the package, and validate it with forward tests before release. ## Quick Start Use the calibrate-visual-language skill to turn my reference images into a validated reusable visual style package.

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn reference images into a reusable AI image style?▼

Run a calibration workflow: inventory each reference with an explicit role, form a provisional rule grammar, then run controlled specimen rounds that vary one style family at a time. Approved specimens become locks that populate a generated visual-design-language skill package.

How do I test an image style skill for drift?▼

Use forward tests with raw prompts covering ordinary requests, alternate surfaces, pressure cases, and conflicting references. A test passes only when invariants hold, prohibited traits stay absent, and the evaluation rubric score meets the approved threshold.

What is required before a visual style package can be released?▼

The package needs approved primary and boundary surface locks, visual evidence for style-defining traits, prohibited traits or anti-references, resolved conflicts, and fixtures per surface. Both validators must pass, and release requires separate explicit user approval after validation.

Can generated images serve as evidence for physical media styles?▼

No. Physical-material traits like stroke behavior must trace to close-up photographs or scans of the real medium. Generated simulations may document rejected directions but cannot approve physical mark-making characteristics.

When should I not use a visual language calibration workflow?▼

Skip it for one-off image requests or routine generation with an already approved style skill. Calibration is for defining, revising, or validating a repeatable style package, not for everyday image generation.
