Check if brand guidelines already exist (file was loaded in previous step).

If guidelines exist: Show a summary of current guidelines and ask "Want to update these or start fresh?"

  • If update: Note which sections to modify, keep existing data for unchanged sections
  • If start fresh: Discard existing and collect everything new

If no guidelines exist (file empty or not found): Tell user you'll collect their brand information now.
4

Guide the user through collecting their brand guidelines. Start with colors (primary, secondary, accent, neutrals), then typography, style preferences, logo usage, and visual elements. Ask about each category systematically. Accept partial information - it's better to have some guidelines than none.
5

Structure the collected information into YAML format matching the structure in the guide:

colors:
primary: [{name, hex, usage}]
secondary: [{name, hex, usage}]
neutrals: [{name, hex}]
typography:
primary_font, secondary_font, style
style:
aesthetic, mood, composition
logo:
placement, clear_space, variations
visual_elements:
imagery_style, patterns

If updating existing guidelines, merge new information with existing data.
Write the YAML to uiBrand Guidelines.

Confirm the brand guidelines have been saved. Show a summary of what was collected (colors, style, etc.). Let the user know they can update these guidelines anytime by running this task again.
