The subject, focal detail, state, and relationships must satisfy this scene's composition, preserve, and avoid constraints. Apply only checks relevant to this feature. Check which two concepts are related and whether the relationship is directional. A connector must not imply transfer, synchronization, or automation unless supported by the note.
 
 ## Acceptance
-Inspect at full size and approximately 350 pixels wide. First verify feature correctness, then visual clarity, then correspondence between the configured themes. Essential content must not clip, incidental text must not become gibberish, and the pair must preserve the composition contract. Matching variants can share the same factual or structural mistake. Register the actual output dimensions and selected file. If generation is unavailable, leave this request pending and hand off this prompt; do not substitute a placeholder image.

Optional project accent: #4678ED; this is available, not required. Use it only on the exact element whose supported state, action, or data meaning the scene says needs color. Otherwise use no accent. Keep unrelated glyphs, tiles, and supporting surfaces neutral; do not invent a colored state, badge, or marker to use the palette.
 Use uniform flat color areas and crisp negative space. If a tile is present, use #ECEEF1 for its flat fill. Separate the neutral glyph and its background by value alone. Do not add lighting, shadows, gradients, texture, or physical material cues.

+# Neutral symbol-pair edit requests
+
+These are the actual built-in image-tool prompts for the neutral-color revision. The shared scene and compiled per-theme prompts describe the reusable composition. These requests record the constrained edits of the earlier example.
+
+The dark edit uses the earlier `dark.png`. The light counterpart uses the accepted neutral dark output. The boundary correction uses the first light candidate. The size correction uses that first light candidate as its dimension reference and the boundary-corrected candidate as a local shape reference. Intermediate candidates are not selected gallery assets.
+
+## Dark neutral edit
+
+Use case: precise-object-edit. Asset type: original release-note symbol-pair illustration, dark variant. Input image 1 is the edit target. Make a constrained color and flat-fill correction to this existing image. Preserve the entire 1586 by 992 canvas, the exact existing positions and dimensions of the three left slider tracks and their three round knobs, the central thin vertical divider, and the right location pin including its circular negative-space cutout. Keep the same broad empty margins and non-directional association. Change the entire formerly colored location pin to the SAME uniform neutral gray as the entire adjustment glyph: #B9BBBE. Both symbols, including the slider knobs and tracks, must use that one identical flat neutral fill. Use one uniform dark charcoal canvas #242527 and a subdued divider #46494D. Remove material shading, gradients, texture, shadows, highlights and lighting from these schematic shapes and the background. This is a static association between preferences and a saved location, with no selected item, enabled control, live location or status. There is no functional reason for accent color: use no blue and no other chromatic accent anywhere. Keep the pin opening and spaces between slider parts as negative space revealing the canvas. Crisp gently antialiased filled edges. No arrows, routes, extra objects, tile, text, logo, watermark or surrounding interface. Output a single DARK raster image only, never a comparison or collage. Keep input dimensions and geometry.

+## Light counterpart
+
+Use case: precise-object-edit. Asset type: original release-note symbol-pair illustration, LIGHT theme counterpart. Input image 1 is the approved neutral dark variant and the composition reference. Create its light counterpart as a constrained presentation-role edit. Preserve the exact 1586 by 992 canvas, positions, sizes, and contours of all subjects: three left slider tracks with their three round knobs at the same offsets, the short central thin vertical divider, and one right location pin with its circular negative-space cutout. Preserve the broad empty margins and non-directional association. Change only presentation color roles: a single uniform near-white canvas #F7F8FA, the ENTIRE adjustment glyph AND the ENTIRE location pin in the SAME single uniform medium-dark neutral gray #494D52, and the thin divider #DDE0E5. The pin cutout and other negative spaces reveal the canvas. Both symbols remain entirely neutral; no blue or other chromatic accent anywhere. This scene depicts a static association, not a selected, active, live or enabled state. Keep crisp flat filled shapes and gently antialiased edges. Remove texture, material shading, gradients, shadows, lighting and highlights rather than adding depth. Do not change geometry, add a tile, new objects, arrows, routes, text, labels, logos, watermark or surrounding interface. Do not create this by color inversion or a global brightness filter: apply the specified semantic color roles. Output one LIGHT raster image only, not a comparison or collage, with the same dimensions and composition as the input.
+
+## Slider boundary correction
+
+Use case: precise-object-edit. Input image 1 is the edit target: the neutral LIGHT location-preferences illustration. Correct only the three slider knob boundaries. Remove the thin white crescent seams, white rings or background-colored gaps where each circular knob overlaps its horizontal track. Each knob and its track must form one continuous connected filled silhouette in the SAME medium-dark neutral gray, with no internal outline, seam, shadow, highlight or gap at their overlap. Retain the exact outer shape, round knob dimensions, all three knob center positions, track lengths and row positions. Preserve the whole 1586 by 992 canvas, the location pin and its cutout, the divider, near-white background, all existing layout, margins and scale. Both symbols remain the same neutral gray; no blue or chromatic accent. Use crisp flat filled edges and no texture or lighting. Do not change or add any subject, text, label, badge, arrow, UI, logo or watermark. Output one corrected LIGHT image only, retaining the input canvas dimensions.
+
+## Output size correction
+
+Use case: precise-object-edit. Produce one LIGHT release-note symbol-pair illustration. Input image 1 is the 1586 by 992 LIGHT edit target and controls the required output dimensions and geometry. Input image 2 is a local correction reference only: it shows the preferred removal of the white crescent seams around the slider knobs, but its width is 1585 and MUST NOT set the output width. Keep the exact 1586 by 992 canvas and every element location from input 1. Apply only the improved continuous slider silhouette from input 2. The circular knobs and their horizontal tracks must meet as continuous filled shapes in the same uniform gray, with no white crescent gaps, rings, outlines, shadows or highlights at the overlap. Preserve all three track lengths and row positions, knob sizes and center positions, the neutral location pin and its cutout, divider, broad margins, near-white canvas, and matching neutral gray treatment of both symbols. No accent color. No new objects, labels, text, decoration or UI. Output exactly 1586 pixels wide by 992 pixels high; do not crop any pixel column. Use input 1's full-size frame, not input 2's smaller frame. One LIGHT image only.

+# Common images for minor changes
+
+Grouped minor changes reuse project-level originals across releases. Use this guide during `releasekit-image`, before generating a new illustration. Standalone features keep their own visual meaning, and explicit custom-image or text-only choices take precedence.
+
+| Common kind | Use for |
+| --- | --- |
+| `minor-fixes` | The grouped minor bug-fix note |
+| `minor-improvements` | The grouped minor improvement and convenience note |
+
+Select the kind from the note's editorial role under [Group minor changes](writing.md#group-minor-changes). A translated title, note ID, or `fix`/`improvement` category alone does not identify a minor group. Keep existing note IDs; do not add unsupported fields to release or visual metadata.
+
+## Store reviewed originals
+
+Store originals in `releasekit/common-images/<kind>/`, outside individual releases. Create a kind's directory when its first reviewed original is available. Each directory contains:
+
+- `visual.yaml`: the existing visual format (`schemaVersion`, `scene`, `variants`). Copy asset hashes, dimensions, and scene fingerprints from successful CLI imports. Here, each asset's `file` is relative to this common directory.
+- `policy.yaml`: the captured `release.yaml` `visuals` value used for the originals.
+- The selected raster files, named by variant and content, such as `dark.<hash>.png`. Use the actual format and hash suffix returned by import.
+
+These files are agent-maintained source records. The CLI does not discover or select common images automatically. Publish only reviewed files with matching metadata; an absent theme remains missing. A directory, prompt, or unfinished image is not a reusable original.
+
+Use a stable, generic scene for the kind, normally a compact neutral monochrome filled glyph on a quiet flat tile with broad margins. Generic fixes and improvements use no accent by default. Do not color the glyph or add a colored badge simply to announce maintenance; the note category is not a selected, active, or successful state. Keep release versions, titles, languages, bullet counts, individual fixes, and release-specific evidence out of the scene. The common scene must not depend on files belonging to its originating release. Do not imply a particular feature, a security guarantee, or that every possible bug is fixed. The note's text and evidence still describe that release's actual changes.
+
+## Reuse before generation
+
+1. Preserve the note's existing valid selections, including custom images and copies of an earlier common design. A newer common original does not replace them on a repeat run. Complete a partial illustration under its existing scene; a common counterpart is suitable only when it matches that scene and the selected image.
+2. For a new, unillustrated, or partially illustrated minor group, inspect its common `visual.yaml`, `policy.yaml`, and requested files. Verify the kind, published review status, file hashes, and actual dimensions against the record. Reuse prior visual review when the originals and their intended role are unchanged.
+3. For a new or unillustrated group without an explicit custom brief, adopt the common `scene`, keeping it independent of the current bullet list. Check compatibility with the release's captured policy. For generated originals, the common scene must match the target brief, and the requested canvas dimensions, preset, accent, and requested theme's palette must match the source policy. Enabling another theme or changing only the other palette does not invalidate a compatible original. Preserve `source: generated` for generated artwork; do not relabel it as supplied to bypass these checks. A genuine approved supplied image keeps `source: provided` and may use `shared` under the normal supplied-image rules.
+4. Import each compatible requested original with `releasekit image import`, using the file named by the common record. Do not copy the common `variants` paths into a release, use links to another release's assets, or point selected assets outside the release directory.
+5. Run `releasekit image plan <version>` after imports. Compatible imports are now ready; continue only with missing or unresolved assets. A generated source does not mean that an existing reviewed file must be generated again. Do not run image generation from an older plan after satisfying its request by import.
+
+The import command uses the current note's actual ID, which may differ from the common kind:
+
+```sh
+releasekit image import <version> <note> --theme <theme> --file releasekit/common-images/<kind>/<file>
+```
+
+Use only the release's configured themes. Reuse both members of an existing pair when both are required, or only the configured member for a single-theme release. A supplied `shared` original serves either theme without manufacturing a pair. Cross-release reuse and the `shared` theme slot are separate concepts.
+
+## Create only missing originals
+
+If no reviewed original exists for a needed kind or theme, first check already approved project images, including earlier minor-group illustrations. Promote a suitable generic image and its scene and policy to the common store when its meaning and appearance match. Do not use an unrelated earlier feature image solely because its category matches.
+
+If no suitable generated original is available, establish the generic scene once and follow the normal [generation sequence](theme-pairing.md#generation-sequence) for the missing configured themes. Keep an existing scene stable while completing its pair. Import a reviewed first variant into the current note so the planner can offer it as the composition reference for the counterpart. For a supplied scene, find or request the missing genuine input under [the supplied-image rules](media-sources.md#missing-input); do not generate its replacement.
+
+To publish an original, first import it successfully under the same scene and policy that will be saved in the common record. Copy the selected bytes unchanged into the common directory and record the matching metadata and captured policy. Preserve already reviewed compatible variants. A continuation of a custom or earlier design must not overwrite a different common design. If only one theme is complete, publish only that entry and keep the other pending. A later run reuses the completed theme and creates only the missing counterpart. Do not invert, duplicate, or freshly redraw an existing variant to satisfy a new release.
+
+When generation is unavailable or an original fails integrity or compatibility checks, keep the affected work pending. Do not silently regenerate an existing design, claim that it is ready, or substitute a placeholder. An appearance change already requested by the user follows the replacement procedure below without another confirmation.
+
+## Preserve release snapshots
+
+Import copies the original into the current release's managed assets and records its own hashes. Keep that scene and those selected files in the release. A bullet addition, wording change, or translation update alone is not a reason to rewrite the common scene, reimport current images, or generate another picture. Update text and localized alt text only where their meaning requires it. A change that no longer belongs to the minor group needs its own appropriate note and illustration.
+
+For an explicitly requested common-design change, prepare and review the replacement before updating the common source records. Keep the prior published originals until the replacement set is ready, and do not mix incompatible scenes or policies in one record. New or unillustrated notes then use the new original. Existing releases and already accepted draft images retain their saved copies unless their replacement was also requested; use the normal [replacement workflow](theme-pairing.md#replace-or-regenerate-an-image) for those notes.
+
+Common files are originals outside release asset cleanup. Removing a note must not remove them. Export continues to copy each release's selected snapshots into that release's asset directory in the bundle. This avoids repeated generation while keeping older releases independent of later changes to the common store; it does not deduplicate physical files across releases.
