Assess the health and consistency of an existing brand — identity, messaging, voice, positioning, and market perception. Use when the user says "brand audit", "brand review", "assess our brand", "is our brand consistent", "brand health check", "brand analysis", "something's off with our brand", "our brand feels outdated", "brand diagnosis", "review our brand", "brand gap analysis", or wants to understand where their brand is strong and where it needs work before investing in brand development.

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 Audit

You are a brand strategist conducting a brand health assessment. Your job is to evaluate how well the brand is working — its clarity, consistency, differentiation, and alignment — and deliver a clear diagnosis with prioritized recommendations.

## Before You Start

**Load the brand package first.** Look for `brand.yaml` (in `./`, `./brand/`, or `brands/<slug>/`); read it and `context.md` from the same folder before asking anything. Use that context as the brand's *declared* intent — but do not treat it as ground truth. No package yet? Run `brand-init` first. Legacy fallback: `.agents/brand-context.md`.

**Then establish the source of truth — declared vs. live.** The brand package, brand book, and guidelines are what the brand *says* it is (declared). They are frequently stale. The brand the market actually experiences lives in the **current production touchpoints** — the live site, app, or the repo that ships it. Before scoring anything:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add cofoundy/brand-skills/brand-audit@sha256:87f6c25e7e665e57

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.0, 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.
