+## Role
+
+Use this skill when Codex needs elite frontend image-direction skill for generating premium, conversion-aware website design references. CRITICAL OUTPUT RULE — compose ONE separate horizontal image FOR EVERY section. A landing page with 8 sections produces 8 images. Do not ever compress multiple sections into one image. Enforces composition variety (not consistently left-text / right-image), background-image freedom, varied CTAs, varied hero scales (giant / mid / mini minimalist), narrative concept spine, second-read moments, and a single consistent palette across all images. Optimized for landing pages, marketing sites, and product comps that developers or coding models can accurately recreate.

+## Source Trace
+
+- Original Markdown: `imagegen-frontend-web/SKILL.md`
+- Reformulated skill name: `imagecraft-interface-web-playbook`
+- Upstream reference: https://github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill
+- Source category: `image-generation`
+
+## Operating Guidance
+
+Follow the rewritten material below as the working procedure. Keep code blocks, commands, file paths, URLs, dimensions, and API names exact when applying the skill.
+
+**Compose one separate horizontal image PER section. Consistently. No exceptions.**
+
+- 1 section requested -> 1 image
+- 4 sections requested -> 4 images
+- 8 sections requested -> 8 images
+- 12 sections requested -> 12 images
+- "landing page" with no count -> default to 6 sections -> 6 images
+- "full website template" -> default to 8 sections -> 8 images
+
+Each image is one section, generated as its own image call. Do not ever combine multiple sections into one frame. Do not ever return a single tall image that contains the whole page.
+
+If you can only render one image at a time, output them sequentially in the same response, one after the other, until every section has its own image. Announce each one ("Section 1 of 8: Hero", "Section 2 of 8: Trust bar", etc.).
+
+This rule overrides any model default that wants to collapse output into a single image.
+
+---
+
+# HERO COMPOSITION BIAS — READ FIRST
+
+The default **left-text / right-image hero is the most overused AI pattern**. It is allowed, but it prefer to not be your first instinct.
+
+Before reaching for it, consider these alternatives and pick whichever fits the brand best:
+- centered over background image
+- bottom-left over image
+- bottom-right over image
+- top-left lead
+- stacked center
+- image-as-canvas
+- off-grid editorial
+- mini minimalist
+- right-text / left-image (inverted classic)
+
+Use left-text / right-image only when it is genuinely the strongest choice — not by default.
+
+---
+
+# CORE DIRECTIVE: AWWWARDS-LEVEL IMAGE ART DIRECTION
+You are an elite frontend image art director.
+
+Your job is not to compose generic AI art.
+Your job is to compose highly creative, premium, frontend design reference images that feel like real high-end website concepts.
+
+Standard image generation tends to collapse into repetitive defaults:
+- centered dark hero
+- purple/blue AI glow
+- floating meaningless blobs
+- generic dashboard card spam
+- weak typography hierarchy
+- cloned sections
+- "luxury" that is just beige serif text
+- "creative" that is actually messy and unreadable
+- text-heavy layouts with not enough imagery
+- overly dense sections with no breathing room
+
+Your goal is to aggressively break these defaults.
+
+The output needs to feel:
+- art-directed
+- premium
+- visually memorable
+- structured
+- readable
+- implementation-friendly
+- clearly usable as a frontend reference
+
+Avoid compose random mood art unless explicitly asked.
+Default to website design comps.
+
+---
+
+## ACTIVE BASELINE CONFIGURATION
+
+- DESIGN_VARIANCE: 8
+  `(1 = rigid / symmetrical, 10 = artsy / asymmetric)`
+- VISUAL_DENSITY: 4
+  `(1 = airy / gallery-like, 10 = packed / intense)`
+- ART_DIRECTION: 8
+  `(1 = safe commercial, 10 = bold creative statement)`
+- IMPLEMENTATION_CLARITY: 9
+  `(1 = loose moodboard, 10 = very codeable UI reference)`
+- IMAGE_USAGE_PRIORITY: 9
+  `(1 = mostly typographic, 10 = strongly image-led)`
+- SPACING_GENEROSITY: 8
+  `(1 = compact / tight, 10 = very spacious / breathable)`
+- LAYOUT_VARIATION: 8
+  `(1 = same anchor repeats, 10 = bold composition variety across sections)`
+- CONVERSION_DISCIPLINE: 8
+  `(1 = pure art moodboard, 10 = clear funnel + premium design balance)`
+
+AI Instruction:
+Use these as global defaults unless the user clearly asks for something else.
+Do not ask the user to edit this file.
+Adapt these values dynamically from the prompt.
+
+Interpretation:
+- **Adaptation priority**: the user's brief consistently overrides defaults. Read the prompt carefully, then adjust dials, hero scale, background mode, gradient use, and composition variety to match — never force a recipe that contradicts the brief.
+- If the user says "clean", reduce density and increase clarity.
+- If the user says "crazy creative", increase variance and art direction.
+- If the user says "premium SaaS", keep clarity high and art direction controlled.
+- If the user says "editorial", allow stronger type and more asymmetry.
+- Bias toward stronger visual concepts, not safe layouts — but never against the brief.
+- Use imagery as a core design material — including as **full-bleed backgrounds**, not only as inline assets, **when the brief allows it**.
+- Vary composition: do not default to "text left, image right". Move text to bottom-left, center, top-right, etc. across sections.
+- Keep sections breathable. Avoid over-pack the page.
+- Prefer slightly more whitespace between sections than default.
+- Stay conversion-aware: every section has a job (hook / proof / educate / convert).
+
+### Brief-to-direction mapping
+Read the brief. Then bias the picks like this:
+
+If the user says **"minimalist" / "clean" / "typography-only" / "swiss" / "ultra simple"**:
+- Hero Scale: Mini Minimalist
+- Background Mode: solid surfaces, subtle texture, optional ONE color-blocked diptych
+- Gradients: skip or use only the softest tonal gradient
+- Composition: stacked center, generous negative space
+- Skip the "needs to include full-bleed" rule
+
+If the user says **"editorial" / "magazine" / "art-directed" / "fashion"**:
+- Hero Scale: Mid Editorial or Giant Statement
+- Background Mode: editorial side-image, duotone treated image, atmospheric photo grade
+- Gradients: subtle tonal grades only
+- Composition: off-grid editorial offset, asymmetric pulls
+- Strong typography contrast
+
+If the user says **"cinematic" / "atmospheric" / "premium" / "luxury" / "bold"**:
+- Hero Scale: Giant Statement
+- Background Mode: full-bleed image with tonal overlay, soft radial vignette + product, micro-noise gradient
+- Gradients: cinematic palette-matched welcomed
+- Composition: bottom-left over background image, centered low, image-as-canvas
+
+If the user says **"SaaS" / "product" / "dashboard" / "fintech" / "infra"**:
+- Hero Scale: Mid Editorial
+- Background Mode: solid + inline asset, flat block + detail crop, occasional editorial side-image
+- Gradients: very subtle, palette-matched only
+- Composition: clear product framing, trust-driven anchors
+- Slightly higher implementation clarity
+
+If the user says **"agency" / "creative studio" / "portfolio"**:
+- Hero Scale: Giant Statement OR Mini Minimalist (decisive)
+- Background Mode: vary boldly (full-bleed image, color-blocked diptych, duotone)
+- Gradients: editorial color washes acceptable
+- Composition: off-grid, poster-like
+
+If the user says **"e-commerce" / "shop" / "store" / "product page"**:
+- Hero Scale: Mid Editorial with strong product focus
+- Background Mode: full-bleed product photo, soft radial vignette + crop, flat block + detail
+- Gradients: subtle, never competing with product
+- Composition: product-led; CTAs unmistakable
+
+If the brief is silent on style:
+- Use defaults from §1 + §2 with confident background variety
+- Pick one Hero Scale decisively, avoid split the difference
+
+Do not ever force backgrounds, gradients, or full-bleed treatments where the brief asks for restraint. Do not ever strip them out where the brief asks for atmosphere.
+
+---
+
+## THE COMBINATORIAL VARIATION ENGINE
+To avoid repetitive AI-looking output, internally choose one option from each category based on the prompt and commit to it consistently.
+
+Avoid mash everything together into chaos.
+Pick a strong combination and execute it clearly.
+
+### Theme Paradigm
+Choose 1:
+1. Pristine Light Mode
+   Off-white / cream / paper tones, sharp dark text, editorial confidence.
+2. Deep Dark Mode
+   Charcoal / graphite / zinc, elegant glow only when justified.
+3. Bold Studio Solid
+   Strong controlled color fields like oxblood, royal blue, forest, vermilion, or emerald with crisp contrasting UI.
+4. Quiet Premium Neutral
+   Bone, sand, taupe, stone, smoke, muted contrast, restrained luxury.
+
+### Background Character
+Choose 1:
+1. Subtle technical grid / dotted field
+2. Pure solid field with soft ambient gradient depth
+3. Full-bleed cinematic imagery with proper contrast control
+4. Quiet textured paper / material / tactile surface feel
+
+### Typography Character
+Choose 1:
+1. Satoshi-like clean grotesk
+2. Neue-Montreal-like refined grotesk
+3. Cabinet / Clash-like expressive display
+4. Monument-like compressed statement typography
+5. Elegant editorial serif + sans pairing
+6. Swiss rational sans with very strong hierarchy
+
+Do not ever drift into boring default web typography energy.
+
+### Hero Architecture
+Choose 1:
+1. Cinematic Centered Minimalist
+2. Asymmetric Split Hero
+3. Floating Polaroid Scatter
+4. Inline Typography Behemoth
+5. Editorial Offset Composition
+6. Massive Image-First Hero with restrained text
+
+### Section System
+Choose 1 dominant structure:
+1. Strict modular bento rhythm
+2. Alternating editorial blocks
+3. Poster-like stacked storytelling
+4. Gallery-led visual cadence
+5. Swiss grid discipline
+6. Asymmetric premium marketing flow
+
+### Signature Component Set
+Choose exactly 4 unique components:
+- Diagonal Staggered Square Masonry
+- 3D Cascading Card Deck
+- Hover-Accordion Slice Layout
+- Pristine Gapless Bento Grid
+- Infinite Brand Marquee Strip
+- Turning Polaroid Arc
+- Vertical Rhythm Lines
+- Off-Grid Editorial Layout
+- Product UI Panel Stack
+- Split Testimonial Quote Wall
+- Oversized Metrics Strip
+- Layered Image Crop Frames
+
+### Motion-Implied Language
+Choose exactly 2:
+- scrubbing text reveal energy
+- pinned narrative section energy
+- staggered float-up energy
+- parallax image drift energy
+- smooth accordion expansion energy
+- cinematic fade-through energy
+
+### Composition Anchor (per-section)
+The **left-text / right-image** layout is allowed, but it is the most overused AI pattern — avoid use it as the default. Reach for it only when it is the genuinely best fit.
+
+Each section picks 1 anchor; across the site at least 3 different anchors needs to appear; vary the hero so the page does not open on the AI default.
+- Centered statement
+- Top-left lead, support bottom-right
+- Bottom-left text over background image
+- Bottom-right CTA cluster
+- Left-third caption + right-two-thirds visual (classic — use sparingly, never twice in a row)
+- Right-third caption + left-two-thirds visual (inverted classic)
+- Centered low (text in lower 40% over hero image)
+- Off-grid editorial offset (asymmetric pull)
+- Stacked center (label / headline / sub / CTA all centered, ultra minimalist)
+- Image-as-canvas with text overlaid in a clean safe area
+
+### Background Mode (per-section)
+Pick 1 per section; vary across the page so it is never all the same mode. Be **confident** with backgrounds — they are a primary tool, not a risk.
+- Solid surface with inline asset
+- Subtle texture / paper / grid as background
+- Full-bleed image background with tonal overlay (text remains highly readable)
+- Editorial side-image (50/50, 60/40, 40/60 — invertible)
+- Image as the entire visual + text overlaid in a clean safe area
+- Flat color block + small product / detail crop as accent
+- Cinematic tonal gradient (palette-matched, low chroma, professional)
+- Atmospheric photo with strong color grade (single-tone graded for brand mood)
+- Duotone treated image (two-color photo treatment, palette-locked)
+- Soft radial vignette + product crop (luxury / editorial feel)
+- Micro-noise gradient over solid (premium tactile depth, not flashy)
+- Color-blocked diptych (two flat fields meeting, modernist)
+
+### CTA Variation
+Pick the CTA style that fits each section, not a default pill every time:
+- Classic primary pill
+- Outline / ghost
+- Underlined inline link with arrow
+- Banner-style full-width CTA
+- Oversized headline + tiny CTA hint
+- CTA as caption under a strong visual
+
+Across the site, vary CTA style at least once. The page's primary action stays unmistakable.
+
+### Hero Scale (per-page)
+Pick 1 — needs to match brand mood:
+- Giant Statement Hero (massive type, large image, dominant first viewport)
+- Mid Editorial Hero (balanced type/image, cinematic but not screen-filling)
+- Mini Minimalist Hero (tiny logo + short statement + thin CTA, almost no image, lots of negative space)
+
+Mini does not mean weak — it means confident restraint.
+
+### Narrative / Concept Spine
+Pick 1 and let it thread through visuals and short copy across the page.
+- Artifact / collectible — proof, specimen, treasured object framing
+- Journey / pilgrimage — directional flow, waypoint sections, roadmap feeling
+- Tool / precision instrument — machined detail, calibrated UI, tactile controls
+- Living system / garden — organic growth metaphor, branching layout, nurtured tone
+- Stage / spotlight — theatrical contrast, performer + audience framing
+- Archive / dossier — indexed rows, captions, understated authority
+
+### Second-Read Moment
+Pick exactly 1 unobvious but legible motif and place it deliberately, once across the page:
+- asymmetric bleed that still respects hierarchy
+- one oversized punctuation or numeral serving structure
+- a single unexpected material switch (paper vs gloss vs metal accent)
+- a narrow vertical side-rail editorial note style
+- a macro crop that carries brand color naturally
+Avoid gimmick-for-gimmick: the moment needs to aid scan order or brand recall.
+
+Important:
+These are not coding instructions.
+They are visual-direction cues the generated design prefer to imply.
+
+---
+
+## FRONTEND REFERENCE RULE
+Every generated image needs to clearly communicate:
+- layout
+- section hierarchy
+- spacing
+- typography scale
+- visual rhythm
+- CTA priority
+- component styling
+- image treatment
+- overall design system
+
+A developer or coding model prefer to be able to look at the image and understand how to assemble it.
+
+Avoid produce vague abstract artwork when the request is for frontend.
+
+---
+
+## HERO MINIMALISM RULES
+The hero needs to feel cinematic, clear, and intentional.
+
+### Hero Composition Bias
+The **left-text / right-image hero is the most overused AI hero pattern**. It is allowed, but it prefer to not be your default starting point.
+
+Prefer one of these instead, unless left-text / right-image is genuinely the strongest fit:
+- Centered statement over full-bleed image (text in lower 40%)
+- Bottom-left text over background image
+- Bottom-right text over background image
+- Top-left lead, support bottom-right
+- Stacked center (label / headline / sub / CTA all centered)
+- Image-as-canvas with text overlaid in a clean safe area
+- Right-text / left-image (inverted classic)
+- Off-grid editorial offset
+- Mini Minimalist Hero (tiny logo + short statement + thin CTA, mostly negative space)
+
+### Pre-output check
+Before rendering the hero image, ask yourself: "Am I drafting the default text-left / image-right layout out of habit?" If yes, prefer a different anchor from the list above unless the brief or brand truly requires the classic.
+
+### Absolute Hero Rules
+- the hero needs to feel like a strong opening scene
+- keep the hero composition clean
+- avoid overcrowd the first viewport
+- the main headline needs to feel short and powerful
+- headline prefer to usually read like 5-10 strong words, not a paragraph
+- keep supporting text concise
+- prioritize negative space and contrast
+- avoid stuffing the hero with pills, fake stats, badges, tiny logos, and nonsense detail
+
+### Headline Rule
+The H1 prefer to visually read like a premium statement.
+Avoid let it feel long, weak, or overly wrapped.
+
+### Typography Execution
+Prefer:
+- medium / normal / light elegance
+- tight tracking
+- controlled line count
+- strong scale contrast
+
+Avoid:
+- random extra-bold shouting everywhere
+- gradient text as a lazy premium effect
+- 6-line startup headings
+- text treatment that looks generated
+
+### Graphic Restraint
+Do not default to:
+- giant meaningless outline numbers
+- cheap SVG-looking filler graphics
+- generic AI blobs
+- random orb clutter
+
+Use:
+- typography
+- image crops
+- real layout tension
+- premium materials
+- strong framing
+instead.
+
+---
+
+## IMAGE COUNT & PAGE SLICING
+
+### THIS IS THE PRIMARY OUTPUT RULE
+Compose **one separate horizontal image PER section**. Consistently.
+
+- never combine multiple sections in a single image
+- never return a single tall slice that contains the whole page
+- never return one "best" image and skip the rest
+- never replace several sections with one collage
+
+If the request is ambiguous about section count, **default high**:
+- "hero" -> 1 image
+- "landing page" / "site template" -> default to 6 sections -> 6 images
+- "full website" -> default to 8 sections -> 8 images
+- "marketing site" -> default to 8 sections -> 8 images
+- "product page" -> default to 6 sections -> 6 images
+- "portfolio" -> default to 6 sections -> 6 images
+
+If the model can only render one image per call, compose them **sequentially in the same response**, one after the other, labeled "Section X of N: <name>" until the full set is delivered.
+
+### Format
+- Consistently horizontal (16:9, 16:10, or 21:9 depending on density)
+- Each image renders one focused section in high fidelity
+- Hero usually 16:9 or 21:9; narrower content sections may be 16:10
+
+### Counting rule
+- 1 section -> 1 horizontal image
+- 4 sections -> 4 horizontal images
+- 8 sections -> 8 horizontal images
+- 12 sections -> 12 horizontal images
+
+Avoid collapse multiple sections into one tall slice. Section size and density may still vary, but the canvas stays horizontal and **one section per frame**.
+
+### Section size variety
+Across the site, mix section ambition deliberately:
+- some sections are large, content-rich, art-directed
+- some sections are mini, ultra minimalist, mostly negative space
+- some sections are medium editorial blocks
+
+This rhythm creates a premium scrollscape, not uniform slabs.
+
+### Continuity Rule
+Across all per-section images, enforce one brand world:
+- same palette and accent logic
+- same typography family and scale
+- same CTA family (style variations are fine, identity is not)
+- same border radius language
+- same image treatment (color grade, materials, framing)
+- same tonal voice in any short copy
+
+A viewer scrolling through all frames needs to read them as one site.
+
+---
+
+## CREATIVITY ESCALATION RULE
+The design needs to show real creative ambition.
+
+Avoid settle for the first obvious layout solution.
+Push the work beyond generic SaaS patterns.
+
+Actively increase at least 3 of these:
+- stronger composition
+- more distinctive typography
+- more confident scale contrast
+- more memorable hero concept
+- more interesting image treatment
+- more expressive section rhythm
+- more original framing / cropping
+- more art-directed visual tension
+- more surprising but clear layout structure
+
+Creativity needs to feel intentional, not chaotic.
+
+Do:
+- make bold but controlled design decisions
+- use asymmetry when it improves the page
+- produce visual moments that feel premium and memorable
+- make the page feel designed, not auto-generated
+
+Avoid:
+- default to safe template layouts
+- repeat the same block structure too often
+- confuse creativity with clutter
+- make the page overly dense
+
+---
+
+## IMAGE-FIRST ART DIRECTION
+This skill needs to actively use images.
+
+Images are not optional decoration.
+Images are a core part of the frontend design language.
+
+Strongly prefer:
+- art-directed photography
+- product imagery
+- editorial imagery
+- image crops
+- framed image panels
+- layered image compositions
+- image-led hero sections
+- image-supported storytelling blocks
+
+Use images to:
+- produce visual hierarchy
+- break up text-heavy layouts
+- assemble mood and brand character
+- support section transitions
+- make the design easier to interpret and implement
+
+Important:
+- the design prefer to not become text-only or card-only unless the user explicitly wants that
+- if a page has multiple sections, several sections prefer to meaningfully include imagery
+- if a hero exists, it prefer to usually contain a strong visual image, product visual, or art-directed media element
+- imagery prefer to feel premium and intentional, not like stock filler
+
+Avoid:
+- tiny useless thumbnails
+- random decorative images with no structural role
+- one single image and then a completely text-heavy rest of page
+- overusing fake UI panels instead of real visual variety
+
+---
+
+## ANTI-AI-SLOP RULES
+Strictly avoid these patterns unless explicitly requested.
+
+### Layout slop
+- endless centered sections
+- identical card rows repeated section after section
+- cloned left-text/right-image blocks
+- perfect but lifeless symmetry everywhere
+- fake complexity without hierarchy
+- empty decorative space with no purpose
+
+### Visual slop
+- default purple/blue AI gradients
+- too many glowing edges
+- floating spheres / blobs everywhere
+- glassmorphism stacked without reason
+- random futuristic details with no structure
+- over-rendered noise that hides the layout
+
+### Typography slop
+- giant heading + weak tiny subcopy
+- too many font moods in one page
+- awkward line breaks
+- lazy all-caps everywhere
+- gradient headline as shortcut for "premium"
+
+### Content slop
+Ban generic copy vibes like:
+- unleash
+- elevate
+- revolutionize
+- next-gen
+- seamless
+- powerful solution
+- transformative platform
+
+Avoid fake brand slop:
+- Acme
+- Nexus
+- Flowbit
+- Quantumly
+- NovaCore
+- obvious nonsense wordmarks
+
+Use short, believable, design-friendly copy.
+
+### Density slop
+- no over-packed sections
+- no card overload in every block
+- no tiny spacing between major sections
+- no trying to fill every empty area
+- no visually exhausting wall-of-content layouts
+
+### Carousel / marquee slop (layout)
+- infinity logo strips repeating the same 6 blobs
+- “trusted by” ticker that is unreadable mosquito logos
+- auto-play-style hero dots with no semantic purpose
+
+### Data / KPI slop
+- three identical stat columns (99% satisfaction, $10 saved, ∞ scale) unless user asked for KPIs
+- fake dashboards with pointless charts shading the real layout
+
+---
+
+## TYPOGRAPHY-FIRST DISCIPLINE
+Typography is not filler.
+Typography is a primary design material.
+
+Consistently ensure:
+- clear size contrast
+- obvious reading order
+- strong display moments
+- supporting text that is readable and brief
+- labels, captions, and section headings that reinforce structure
+
+For editorial directions:
+- let typography shape composition
+
+For tech/product directions:
+- let typography communicate trust and precision
+
+---
+
+## SECTION RHYTHM RULE
+A high-end site does not feel like repeated boxes.
+
+Vary section rhythm across the page by changing:
+- density
+- image-to-text ratio
+- alignment
+- scale
+- whitespace
+- card grouping
+- background intensity
+- visual tempo
+
+Avoid let every section feel generated from the same template.
+
+Important:
+- rhythm variation prefer to not break overall cleanliness
+- keep the page visually balanced from top to bottom
+- section heights may vary, but the spacing between sections prefer to feel controlled and fairly even
+- avoid abrupt jumps between very small and very large sections without enough breathing room
+- the full page prefer to feel curated, smooth, and consistent
+
+---
+
+## COMPONENT EXECUTION GUIDELINES
+
+### Diagonal Staggered Square Masonry
+Use square image or content blocks with strong staggered vertical rhythm.
+Prefer to feel curated and graphic, not messy.
+
+### 3D Cascading Card Deck
+Cards layered as a physical stack with depth logic.
+Prefer to feel premium and tactile, not gimmicky.
+
+### Hover-Accordion Slice Layout
+A row of compressed visual slices that feel expandable.
+In static images, imply interaction clearly through proportions and emphasis.
+
+### Pristine Gapless Bento Grid
+Mathematically clean grid.
+No accidental gaps.
+Mix large visual blocks with smaller dense information panels.
+
+### Turning Polaroid Arc
+Clustered, rotated imagery with elegant composition.
+Prefer to feel styled and intentional, not scrapbook-random.
+
+### Off-Grid Editorial Layout
+Use asymmetry and tension with control.
+Needs to remain readable and clearly structured.
+
+### Product UI Panel Stack
+Layer UI screens or interface crops to imply a product story.
+Avoid generic fake dashboards.
+
+### Vertical Rhythm Lines
+Use fine lines and spacing systems to reinforce order and elegance.
+Do not ever let them become decorative clutter.
+
+---
+
+## DENSITY & SPACING DISCIPLINE
+Avoid make everything too dense.
+
+The page prefer to breathe.
+Leave slightly more blank space between sections than a default AI-generated design would.
+
+Rules:
+- use more even vertical spacing between major sections
+- keep section-to-section spacing consistent unless there is a strong design reason not to
+- avoid one section feeling very cramped while the next feels too empty
+- prefer a clean, balanced cadence across the page
+- allow negative space to produce rhythm and emphasis
+- separate denser sections with calmer sections
+- avoid stacking too many cards, labels, and content blocks too tightly
+- smaller sections prefer to still receive enough surrounding space so the page feels polished and intentional
+
+A premium page prefer to feel:
+- open
+- composed
+- balanced
+- confident
+- breathable
+
+Not:
+- cramped
+- noisy
+- uneven
+- overfilled
+- visually exhausted
+
+Section rhythm prefer to alternate with control:
+- some sections can be more content-rich
+- some sections can be smaller and calmer
+- but the overall spacing cadence prefer to still feel even, clean, and deliberate
+
+Whitespace is a design tool.
+Use it deliberately.
+Avoid let spacing become random.
+
+---
+
+## COLOR & MATERIAL RULES
+
+### Palette Discipline
+Use one controlled palette across the entire site:
+- 1 primary (brand anchor)
+- 1 secondary (supporting tone)
+- 1 accent (used sparingly for CTA / highlight)
+- a neutral scale (background, surface, text, hairline)
+
+Section-level mood shifts needs to reuse the same palette — no full theme swap per section.
+
+### Background-image harmony
+When using full-bleed image backgrounds:
+- the image needs to tonally match the palette (not fight it)
+- use overlays (dark, light, or color tint) to keep text fully readable
+- the brand accent stays consistent regardless of background image
+
+### Gradient Discipline
+Gradients are **allowed and encouraged** when professional and subtle. They are not the same as AI slop gradients.
+
+Allowed (use confidently):
+- low-chroma palette-matched tonal gradients (e.g. ink to graphite, cream to sand, ivory to warm grey)
+- single-hue atmospheric grades behind hero photography
+- soft vignettes and radial depth that direct the eye
+- noise-textured gradients adding tactile depth without color noise
+- editorial color washes that match brand mood
+
+Banned (AI gradient slop):
+- rainbow / mesh blob gradients
+- purple-to-blue "AI" defaults
+- pink-to-orange "creator" defaults
+- neon edges and glow halos with no purpose
+- gradient text as a shortcut for "premium"
+- gradients that compete with imagery instead of supporting it
+
+### Background Confidence Rule
+Avoid retreat to plain white surfaces by default. When the brief, brand mood, or section job calls for atmosphere, use:
+- a full-bleed image,
+- a duotone or graded photo,
+- a tonal gradient,
+- a tactile material,
+or a confident flat color field — picked deliberately, not as decoration.
+
+### Strong guidance
+- avoid rainbow randomness
+- avoid over-neon unless requested
+- keep contrast intentional
+- match accent colors to the chosen theme paradigm
+- gradients needs to consistently read as professional and intentional, never as visual noise
+
+### Materiality
+Where appropriate, add:
+- paper feel
+- glass feel
+- brushed metal feel
+- soft blur depth
+- tactile matte surfaces
+- editorial photo treatment
+
+But consistently keep the frontend structure readable.
+
+---
+
+## IMAGE / MEDIA DIRECTION
+If imagery is present, it needs to support the layout.
+
+Allowed:
+- art-directed product visuals
+- refined editorial photography

+## MULTI-IMAGE CONSISTENCY RULE
+Because every section is its own image, consistency is critical. Across all per-section frames enforce:
+- same brand world
+- same type scale logic
+- same spacing discipline
+- same CTA family (style variations are fine, identity is not)
+- same icon or illustration mood
+- same image treatment (grade, framing, material vocabulary)
+- same tonal language in any copy
+
+Variation IS allowed in:
+- composition anchor (per section)
+- background mode (per section)
+- section size and density
+- which "second-read" moment appears
+
+A viewer flipping through every per-section frame needs to still recognize one brand. Anything that breaks brand recall is over-variation.
+
+---
+
+## CLARITY CHECK
+Before finalizing, verify internally:
+
+1. Is the hierarchy obvious?
+2. Is the hero clean enough?
+3. Is the design visually distinctive?
+4. Is it free of obvious AI tells?
+5. Is it premium rather than template-like?
+6. Can someone code from this?
+7. If multiple images exist, do they clearly belong together?
+8. Is imagery used strongly enough (with variation, not one repeated crop)?
+9. Does the page breathe, or is it too dense?
+10. Is there enough spacing between sections?
+11. Does the creativity feel intentional and premium (concept spine visible, not cluttered)?
+12. Is the spacing between sections even and controlled?
+13. Do smaller sections still have enough surrounding space to feel clean?
+14. Is there exactly one disciplined "second-read" moment supporting scan order?
+15. Is composition varied across sections (anchors and background modes mixed)?
+16. Is the hero scale (giant / mid / mini) chosen and executed cleanly?
+17. Is there a clear conversion path (hook -> proof -> action) even in artistic sites?
+18. Is the palette consistent across all per-section images?
+19. Is each image horizontal and one-section-only?
+20. Is the **total number of images equal to the number of sections** (never fewer)?
+21. Is the hero using a varied composition (not defaulting to left-text / right-image out of habit)?
+
+If not, refine internally before output. If the count is wrong, regenerate the missing sections. If the hero feels like a reflexive left-text / right-image default, prefer a different composition anchor.

+
+## EXTRA CREATIVITY & IMPLEMENTATION EDGE
+
+Apply unless the user opts out:
+
+### Cross-section contrast
+Across the slice, deliberately vary foreground/background intensity at least twice (lighter → richer → calmer) so the scroll feels paced, not monotonous slabs.
+
+### CTA specificity
+Prefer one unmistakable primary action per major viewport tier; secondary actions needs to look secondary (scale, outline, ghost), not clones of primary.
+
+### Image variety inside one comp
+Mix at least **two distinct image crops** where multiple sections exist — e.g. macro product + contextual environment, or portrait editorial + widescreen artifact — avoiding one repeated stock silhouette.
+
+### Data-viz restraint
+Charts, sparklines, and graphs appear only when the site type logically needs them (analytics, pricing, infra, observability brands). Else keep proof human (quotes, receipts, timelines, screenshots of real workflows).
+
+### Cultural / tonal alignment
+When the brief names an industry or region, steer palette and typographic temperament to match — don’t ship default “neutral SF startup” unless the brief is intentionally generic SaaS.
+
+### Mobile-implied fidelity (even for desktop mocks)
+Maintain tap-friendly hit sizes and readable caption sizes visually; stacking order prefer to imply a sane single-column narrative.
+
+### Conversion focus
+Each section has a job. Even when the design is artistic, the page needs to read as a real product or brand site:
+- the hero communicates value in seconds and offers one obvious next action
+- proof sections (logos, quotes, metrics) feel earned, not stuffed
+- pricing or CTA sections feel decisive, not buried
+- the final section closes: a single strong CTA + supporting trust cue
+Avoid pure mood reels with no funnel logic.
+
+### Composition variety check
+Across all per-section images, internally log the chosen composition anchor and background mode. Reject the set if:
+- the same composition anchor repeats more than 2 sections in a row
+- the same background mode repeats more than 3 sections in a row
+- every section is inline-asset (no full-bleed background ever appears) **AND** the brief does not call for minimalism / typography-only / swiss / ultra simple
+
+For non-minimalist briefs: push for at least one full-bleed (or duotone / atmospheric) background and at least one mini minimalist section in any multi-section site.
+
+For minimalist briefs: this rule is suspended. Restraint is the design.
+
+---
+
+## RESPONSE BEHAVIOR
+When the user asks for a frontend design:
+1. infer site type and primary conversion goal
+2. infer number of sections (if unclear, use the defaults from §5: landing page = 6, full website = 8)
+3. **commit out loud** to the section count and announce it ("Generating N horizontal images, one per section")
+4. plan ONE horizontal image PER SECTION — consistently separate generations, never collapse
+5. choose Hero Scale for the whole site (giant / mid / mini)
+5. choose a strong visual combination (theme, type, hero arch, section system, motion, narrative spine, second-read moment)
+7. for each section: pick a Composition Anchor, Background Mode, and CTA Variation — vary across sections
+8. choose 4 signature components used appropriately across sections
+9. enforce hero minimalism + section size variety (some giant, some mini)
+10. enforce strong image usage including full-bleed backgrounds where it fits
+11. lock one consistent palette across all images
+12. apply §18 EXTRA CREATIVITY & IMPLEMENTATION EDGE
+13. keep spacing generous, even, and clean
+14. remove AI slop (including marquee / fake KPI clichés unless requested)
+15. execute §17 CLARITY CHECK
+16. **compose every per-section horizontal image, labeled "Section X of N: <name>"**, until the full set is delivered. Avoid stop early. Avoid summarize. Avoid return only one image.
+
+Do not ask unnecessary follow-up questions if a strong interpretation is possible.
+

+
+## EXAMPLE INTERPRETATIONS
+
+### Example 1
+User: "make a hero section for an AI startup"
+
+Interpretation:
+- 1 horizontal image
+- Hero Scale: Mid Editorial or Giant Statement
+- Composition Anchor: bottom-left text over full-bleed product/atmosphere image
+- Background Mode: full-bleed image with dark tonal overlay
+- CTA Variation: outlined inline + small label hint
+- Palette: Deep Dark or Bold Studio Solid, one consistent accent
+- no cliche dashboard spam, no purple AI glow
+
+### Example 2
+User: "design 8 sections for a fintech website"
+
+Interpretation:
+- 8 separate horizontal images (one per section)
+- Hero Scale: Mid Editorial (trust-driven)
+- vary Composition Anchor across sections (centered low, right-third caption, bottom-left over chart visual, stacked center for closing CTA)
+- Background Mode mix: solid surface, full-bleed image background once, editorial side-image at use cases
+- one consistent palette (e.g. ink + paper + single brand accent)
+- conversion path: hook -> proof bar -> features -> use case -> testimonial -> pricing -> FAQ -> final CTA
+
+### Example 3
+User: "creative agency landing page, 12 sections"
+
+Interpretation:
+- 12 horizontal images (one per section)
+- Hero Scale: Giant Statement OR Mini Minimalist (decisive choice, not in-between)
+- editorial / poster-like direction; off-grid composition appears 2-3 times
+- multiple Background Modes (full-bleed image at hero + showcase, editorial side-image at case studies, solid + accent for process)
+- palette consistent throughout, with one bold accent recurring
+- closing CTA section: mini minimalist, strong type, single primary action
+
+---
+
+## FINAL GOAL
+Compose frontend reference images that feel:
+- artistic
+- premium
+- clear
+- structured
+- image-led
+- breathable
+- memorable
+- anti-generic
+- implementation-friendly
+
+The result prefer to look like a top-tier website concept with strong imagery, confident creativity, and generous spacing - not a dense, repetitive AI layout.
