+# Brand Alchemy
+
+<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Varnan-Tech/opendirectory/main/docs/assets/opendirectory_banner.webp" width="100%" alt="Brand Alchemy Cover" />
+
+World-class brand strategist and naming expert. Uses an interrogation-led discovery phase to extract your brand's DNA, then applies scientific naming frameworks (Phonosemantics) and automated multi-TLD domain checking.
+
+## Core Capabilities
+
+When invoked, the skill commands the AI agent to act as an elite branding consultant through a rigorous protocol:
+
+* **The Interrogation**: Forces the AI to stop and ask critical discovery questions (Core, Audience, Alternative, Vibe) to extract your brand's true DNA before generating names.
+* **Strategic Positioning**: Applies frameworks from April Dunford ("Obviously Awesome") and Category Design ("Play Bigger") to position your startup against the status quo.
+* **Phonosemantics & Lexicon Science**: Uses sound symbolism (Plosives, Fricatives, Vowel Size) to engineer names that subconsciously communicate speed, power, or luxury.
+* **Universal Domain Verification**: Automatically runs a robust Python script to check DNS and RDAP availability for any TLD (`.com`, `.io`, `.ai`, `.tech`, etc.), ensuring you don't fall in love with a taken name.

+## How to Prompt the AI
+
+Once the skill is installed, simply ask the AI to help you name your startup or build a brand strategy.
+
+> "Help me name my AI distribution startup. We help technical founders get users."
+
+The AI will automatically pause and initiate **Step 1: The Interrogation**, asking you specific questions about your core offering, audience, alternatives, and desired brand vibe.
