Create or refine a cohesive visual identity for a software project through mascots, logos, README heroes, social cards, circular thumbnails, and supporting illustrations. Use when project artwork must share one recognizable character, palette, composition language, and production-quality finish. Not for architecture or flow diagrams.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Project Illustrator

Build a project art system that stays recognizable at every size. A tiny avatar has to read as clearly as a wide README hero, and so does whatever illustration follows later. Base every decision on the product and its existing identity rather than on generic technology imagery.

## 1. Discover the identity

Inspect the target repository before writing a prompt:

- Read the README and product copy to learn the problem, mechanism, audience, and tone.
- Search `assets/`, `public/`, `static/`, documentation, social cards, favicons, and app icons for existing brand material.
- Inspect the actual candidates. Do not treat a framework or template icon as project branding.
- Record the current output paths, dimensions, formats, and every place the artwork is referenced.

If the project already has a logo or mascot, preserve its defining silhouette, anatomy, colors, and personality. Improve execution and consistency without replacing its identity.

If it has no identity, turn the product's mechanism into a character or visual action. Prefer a specific idea that explains the project over a mascot holding unrelated developer props.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mgiovani/cc-arsenal/project-illustrator@sha256:f36c79ff434930bf

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
