# references/ — the taste-capture drop zone
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Drop design references here so they become **codified taste**, not one-off chat images.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- `TASTE_PROFILE.md` — the living design contract. I distill the recurring **design DNA**
|
|||
|
|
from everything in this folder and consult it on every build.
|
|||
|
|
- `characters/` — drop **character pack files** here (PNG cutouts, SVG, `.blend`). I vendor
|
|||
|
|
the usable ones into the asset library (honoring the license firewall) and build templates
|
|||
|
|
*with* them — rather than redrawing from scratch.
|
|||
|
|
- `boards/` — optional moodboards / style references grouped by topic.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When you add something, a one-line "why I like it" (the line, the palette, the mood, the
|
|||
|
|
attitude) sharpens the profile far more than the image alone.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## The daily loop (our ritual)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Paste taste images (or a "I love / I hate this") any day. Each drop runs the loop:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. **You paste** — references + one line of *why* (style / palette / mood / attitude).
|
|||
|
|
2. **I extract** the design DNA → update `TASTE_PROFILE.md` (the board grows, the through-line
|
|||
|
|
sharpens) + a memory so it survives across sessions.
|
|||
|
|
3. **I apply** it → upgrade the shared **kits** (backgrounds, type scale, props, composition)
|
|||
|
|
and the `flat-artist` skill so the *actual output* moves toward your taste.
|
|||
|
|
4. **I prove** it → a cheap still / before-after so you can see the move; you approve or reject,
|
|||
|
|
which sharpens the profile again.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Two modes so it's sustainable:
|
|||
|
|
- **Calibration days** (most days) — just steps 1–2. Cheap. Absorb the DNA, grow the board.
|
|||
|
|
- **Apply passes** (periodic) — steps 3–4. Roll the accumulated taste into the kits/blocks so
|
|||
|
|
the whole catalogue jumps a level at once.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
What actually compounds: not my raw drawing (that's fixed), but the **system** — the codified
|
|||
|
|
profile, the reusable kits, the prop/character libraries, the skill rules. That gets richer every
|
|||
|
|
day, so the output keeps improving even though the base model doesn't.
