| Why builders pick it | Read the spec, then write one skill of your own: a Resource Project house-style skill capturing editorial voice, headline conventions, image credit format and caption rules. That is how brand voice stops being re-explained every session. | Font pairing and palette selection are exactly where generic AI output announces itself. The industry rules map project requirements to a tailored design system rather than defaulting to the same three shadcn looks. |
