Lp Do Assessment 11 Brand Identity

lp-do-assessment-11-brand-identity — Brand Identity (ASSESSMENT-11)

Synthesizes brand strategy and product context into concrete visual identity decisions. Reads <YYYY-MM-DD>-brand-profile.user.md (ASSESSMENT-10 output) and the ASSESSMENT intake packet, then produces a <YYYY-MM-DD>-brand-identity-dossier.user.md with colour palette, typography, shape/elevation, imagery direction, and token overrides. Does not re-elicit audience or personality — these are carried forward from ASSESSMENT-10.

Load: ../_shared/assessment/assessment-base-contract.md

Invocation

/lp-do-assessment-11-brand-identity --business <BIZ>

Required:

• --business <BIZ> — 3-4 character business identifier

Business resolution pre-flight: If --business is absent or the directory docs/business-os/strategy/<BIZ>/ does not exist, apply _shared/business-resolution.md before any other step.

Operating Mode

EXECUTE

This skill synthesizes inputs into design decisions rather than eliciting them field-by-field. The operator may not know specific hex codes or token names — this skill makes reasoned visual decisions grounded in the brand strategy and surfaces them for operator review.

Does NOT:

• Re-elicit audience, personality, or voice & tone (these come from ASSESSMENT-10)
• Require an existing app or theme package to proceed
• Skip sections — every template section must appear in the output (TBD is acceptable for Signature Patterns and App Coverage)

Required Inputs (pre-flight)

If <YYYY-MM-DD>-brand-profile.user.md is absent, halt and emit:

"ASSESSMENT-10 artifact not found at docs/business-os/strategy/<BIZ>/<YYYY-MM-DD>-brand-profile.user.md. Run /lp-do-assessment-10-brand-profiling --business <BIZ> first."

Completion Message

"Brand identity recorded: docs/business-os/strategy/<BIZ>/<YYYY-MM-DD>-brand-identity-dossier.user.md. Colour palette: tokens. Typography: . Token overrides: ."

"Brand discovery document produced: docs/business-os/strategy/<BIZ>/<YYYY-MM-DD>-brand-identity-preview.user.html. Open in a browser to review the visual identity."

"ASSESSMENT stage complete. Next step: run /lp-readiness --business <BIZ> to enter S1."

Integration

Upstream (ASSESSMENT-10): Reads <YYYY-MM-DD>-brand-profile.user.md as required input. Audience, Personality, and Voice & Tone sections are carried forward directly.

Downstream (S1): After ASSESSMENT-11 saves the brand dossier, the operator proceeds to S1 (/lp-readiness). There is no ASSESSMENT gate.

Later consumption: /lp-design-spec reads <YYYY-MM-DD>-brand-identity-dossier.user.md at DO+ and writes back stable new patterns to the Signature Patterns section. /lp-do-build references it for UI implementation guidance.

Replaces: This skill supersedes /lp-assessment-bootstrap as the canonical brand identity skill within the startup loop ASSESSMENT stage. lp-assessment-bootstrap remains available for standalone use outside the loop.
