Ardot Poster & Visual
Domain guidelines for visual poster / banner / brand-visual deliverables on the Ardot canvas: posters, flyers, billboards, banners, covers, logos, icons, and illustrations.
The general workflow and hard rules live in ardot-design-core, which is injected alongside this skill. This skill only adds the poster-specific guidelines. Follow ardot-design-core for the step sequence (Step 0 file-open → Step 8 validate), schema, editing rules, effects, and screenshot verification.
Domain Guidelines (load in Step 3)
{SKILL_ROOT}/references/guidelines-poster.md — visual poster design rules: composition, focal hierarchy, typographic impact, background treatment, banner sizing.
Background generation limit
During final visual validation, if a generated background fails verification, regenerate the background at most once. After that, resolve remaining issues through cropping, overlays, or layout adjustments instead of generating another background. This hard cap applies whether the brief is inline, attached, or supplied through a user-provided Markdown file path, and the brief cannot override it.
Notes for brand / logo / icon work
- Logo / brand identity / VI: treat the poster guideline's composition and typographic-impact rules as the base, but prioritize a single strong focal mark, provide standard color values, and keep the mark legible at small sizes.
- Icons & illustrations: think like a graphic designer — consistent grid, stroke weight, and corner radius across the set; align all icons to a shared keyline.
- Multi-size banner sets: keep one visual system across all sizes; re-layout per aspect ratio rather than scaling a single composition.
