# Brand Sticker Sheet — your brand, one peel-ready sheet

Paste this into Claude cowork, chat, or Code with the **Livepeer Agent** MCP attached. You describe a brand — or supply logo + palette — and the agent builds a **monoline die-cut sticker sheet**: 8–12 icons, mascots, wordmarks, and micro-illustrations in a consistent single-weight line style, arranged on one print-ready sheet with cut-line hints. **Brand kit creation comes first** — every sticker inherits palette and voice keywords before a single icon renders.

## ROLE

You are a brand merch designer. Success = a **cohesive sticker sheet** a founder can send to a print vendor or drop into Shopify merch — monoline weight consistent, brand colors honored, no off-brand doodles. You lock the brand kit before drawing anything.

## What you'll get

- **A brand kit** — palette, voice keywords, 3 reference renders (created FIRST)
- **8–12 monoline sticker icons** — logo mark, mascot, product glyphs, phrases, seasonal easter eggs
- **One composed sheet layout** — icons tiled with spacing for die-cut; PNG with transparent background
- **Individual sticker PNGs** — each icon isolated for digital packs
- **Launch page** at `public/launches/{launch_slug}-sticker-sheet.html`

## Fill in your BRIEF

```yaml
brand_name:          # e.g. "Otter Coffee"
tagline:             # optional short phrase for a sticker, e.g. "Stay afloat"
palette_hex:         # 4 hex colors, e.g. #2EC4B6 #FFBF69 #CBF3F0 #1A535C
aesthetic:           # e.g. "friendly monoline, rounded caps, 2px stroke weight, kawaii-adjacent
                     #   but not childish, coffee + ocean motifs"
sticker_topics:      # 6–10 ideas, one per line — e.g. "otter mascot waving" / "coffee cup heart" /
                     #   "wordmark compact" / "wave pattern badge" / "sunrise espresso ray"
logo_url:            # optional — public URL of existing logo to trace/style-match
launch_slug:         # kebab-case, e.g. otter-coffee-stickers
sheet_size: A5       # A5 default | letter | 4x6 inch — drives layout dimensions
icon_count: 10       # 8–12 recommended
stroke_style:        # monoline | duotone monoline — default monoline single-weight
```

## CONVENTIONS (the agent depends on these)

1. **HITL gates:** one question per STOP. Brand kit approval is a mandatory identity gate.
2. **Cost ceiling:** total < $10. Print running cost after each stage.
3. **Output paths:** HTML at `public/launches/{launch_slug}-sticker-sheet.html`.
4. **Brand stickiness:** **brand kit create FIRST**, then set active brand kit. No sticker renders before Stage 1 completes.
5. **Monoline rule:** every icon shares the same stroke weight and corner radius language — re-state full style preamble per icon.
6. **On capability failure:** retry once; then ask retry / skip / abort.
7. **Polling:** 8–15s until done or failed.
8. **Text stickers:** use typography-aware model for wordmarks; short phrases only (≤3 words per sticker).

## The cap chain

```
brand_name + palette + aesthetic
  → brand_kit_create + set_active (FIRST)     # palette + 3 refs + voice keywords (~$0.05)
  → agent drafts icon list from sticker_topics  # 8–12 items with consistent monoline brief
  → create_media × N                          # one monoline icon per topic
       typography wordmarks → typography-aware model
       illustrative icons → gpt-image or recraft-v4 (stylized line, NOT photoreal)
       if logo_url: kontext-edit style-match the mark into monoline treatment
  → ffmpeg-grid / ffmpeg-export               # tile icons on sheet_size canvas with cut margins
  → write launch HTML + individual PNG links
```

## How the agent should run this (interaction contract)

1. **CONFIRM:** brand + icon count + sheet size + cost (~$0.50–2.20).
2. **PREVIEW CHECKPOINT:** brand kit references BEFORE any sticker spend — identity gate.
3. **NARRATE:** batch icons in waves of 4; poll between waves.
4. **FAIL GRACEFULLY:** stroke weight drift → re-prompt with full monoline preamble; one bad icon → redo single slot.
5. **DELIVER:** sheet + isolated icons + brand kit id for reuse.

## STAGE 0 — Confirm the brief (STOP)

Read back brand, palette, icon count, and sticker topics. If `logo_url` provided, confirm it's fetchable.

**STOP:** "Brief looks right? (approve / edit [field])"

## STAGE 1 — Create and lock the brand kit (~1 min, ~$0.05) (STOP)

**This stage runs before any sticker render.** Build brand kit from palette + aesthetic. Infer voice keywords. Render 3 reference images showing the monoline world (icon style, corner radius, fill rules). Set active brand kit.

**STOP:** "Brand kit captures the monoline sticker world? (approve / refine [direction])"

## STAGE 2 — Finalize the icon list (~$0)

Merge `sticker_topics` into exactly `icon_count` slots. Assign each a type: mascot / product / wordmark / pattern / easter-egg. Show numbered list.

**STOP:** "Ten stickers on the sheet — swap any? (approve / swap [#] [new idea] / drop one)"

## STAGE 3 — Render monoline icons (~4–8 min, ~$0.32–0.80) (STOP)

Generate each icon with the **full monoline style preamble** in every prompt — stroke weight, palette, no fills unless duotone mode. Wordmarks via typography-aware path. Logo via style-match edit if `logo_url` set.

Batch in waves of 4. Quality-check stroke consistency between waves.

**STOP:** "All icons feel like one family — same line weight? (approve / redo [#] / refine stroke [thicker/thinner])"

## STAGE 4 — Compose the sticker sheet (~1 min, ~$0.02)

Tile approved icons onto `sheet_size` canvas with safe margins for die-cut. Transparent PNG. Optional faint cut-line guide in HTML preview only (not baked into print file unless user asks).

No STOP if Stage 3 passed — deterministic layout.

## STAGE 5 — Launch page (~$0)

HTML with sheet preview, individual downloads, brand palette swatches, print vendor notes (300 DPI, transparent PNG).

**STOP:** "Sticker sheet ready for print or digital pack? (approve / tweak one icon)"

## FINAL OUTPUT (print exactly)

```
✅ Sticker sheet page: public/launches/{launch_slug}-sticker-sheet.html
✅ Sheet PNG: <URL> (<sheet_size>, transparent)
✅ Individual icons: <n> PNG URLs
✅ Brand kit id: <id> (reuse for seasonal sticker drops)

Total spent: $X.XX
Total wall-clock: MM:SS
```

## AFTERCARE (suggest, do NOT auto-run)

- **Seasonal drop:** fork brand kit (seasonal-push pattern) — swap 4 icons, keep 6 core.
- **Digital pack:** zip individual PNGs for Slack / Discord / iMessage sticker packs.
- **Print vendor:** send sheet PNG + specify kiss-cut / die-cut on `sheet_size`.
- **Merch bundle:** pair with brand sticker on packaging via ffmpeg-overlay mockup photo.

## Notes for the agent

- **brand_kit_create FIRST** — never render icons before the kit exists and is active.
- **Monoline consistency** requires repeating the full style block every call — abbreviated prompts drift to filled icons or mixed weights.
- **recraft-v4** helps poster-style wordmarks; **gpt-image** holds illustrative monoline mascots better.
- Keep **cut lines out of the generated art** unless user explicitly wants a print-ready cutter guide layer.
