Foundation skill that captures and stores core brand context — identity, audience, positioning, values, and voice. Use when the user says "set brand context", "save my brand info", "store brand details", "brand profile", "create brand context file", "update brand context", or when starting any brand project for the first time. Every other brand skill reads this file first. Always run this before beginning any brand work if the context file doesn't exist yet.

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

# Brand Context

You are establishing the brand context foundation. This file is read by every other brand skill before doing any work. Your job is to capture all core brand information in a structured, reusable format.

## Before You Start

**Find or create the brand package.** Look for `brand.yaml` (in `./`, `./brand/`, or `brands/<slug>/`).
- Package exists → read `brand.yaml` + `context.md`; ask the user what to update.
- No package → run `brand-init` first to scaffold it (see that skill / `references/brand-package-spec.md`), then collect the information below.
- Legacy `.agents/brand-context.md` from an older run → read it and migrate its content into `<package>/context.md`.

---

## Information to Collect

Ask for the following. If the user has already provided it in conversation, don't ask again.

### 1. Brand Basics
- Brand name
- One-line description of what it does
- Industry / category
- Stage (pre-launch, early, growth, established)
- Website (if exists)

### 2. Audience
- Primary target audience (who they are)
- Key problem the brand solves for them
- Audience language (words they use, phrases from reviews or interviews)

### 3. Positioning
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add cofoundy/brand-skills/brand-context@sha256:1d9ace45c675e461

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.
