In short:
ak-cip-designwrites an identity brief (industry, style, colors, type, items worth making), then renders mockup images for exactly the items you name. If the brand already exists, it uses your real logo; if there is no logo yet, make one first withak-logo-design, or allow a concept. It does not redraw your identity for you, and the images are mockups for review, not print files.

Summary
Use it when you have a brand and want to see it on real objects: business cards, letterhead, a reception sign, shirts, vehicles, packaging. It also helps when you only need a direction brief, or want to gather mockups into one HTML page for a client. You do not need it for print files for the printer: the skill only makes mockup images for review, and print files are made separately.

| Concept | Question | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Identity brief | How should this brand look on physical things? | Craft tea shop: Warm Organic style, brown and green, kraft paper, worth making business cards, tote bags, box labels |
| Real logo or concept | Will the image carry your logo or one the AI imagined? | You have a logo file: the mockup uses exactly that logo and is checked against the original. New brand and you allow a concept: the image is clearly labeled as a concept |
| Named items | Which items get made this time? | Only business cards and the reception sign. The skill does not add shirts or vehicles you did not name |
| Mockup is not a print file | What are the images for? | PNG images to review the idea and show the client. Not vector files ready for the printer |
Sample prompt when the brand already has a logo:
/ak-cip-design business cards and reception signage for <brand name>, industry <industry>.
Logo: <path to logo.png>. Keep the logo, colors and proportions unchanged.
Do not make: shirts, vehicles, packaging.This skill has no flags.
