Creative Brief Selector is an agent skill from rampstackco/claude-skills. Produce a creative brief grounded in live reference sites and deliberately distinct from existing demos, for any new brand build. Composes with brand-archetype-system and creative-direction. Use this skill at the start of any brand or microsite build when the result needs to land in a specific aesthetic position and not drift into a default house style. Triggers on creative brief, design brief, build brief, brand direction, where should this brand sit, what should this site look like, reference sites for…
Its SKILL.md is about 2.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 21 other files, including reference files (for example `README.md`, `references/00-overview.md` and `references/01-process.md`).
The repository describes itself as: Stack-agnostic Claude Skills covering the full website lifecycle: brand, design, content, SEO, dev, ops, growth, and research. Build, ship, audit, optimize. The licence is MIT.
3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 482c9bf. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Creative Brief Selector loads about 2.5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~29k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 182 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,128 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

This skill also uses 19 other files; get the full folder from GitHub.A starting-point selector for brand and microsite builds. Given a business spec (name, vertical, shape, one-line vibe, optional list of shipped demos), produces a creative brief grounded in three things:
brand-archetype-system, picked or composed to be deliberately distinct from the shipped demos.The brief output is concrete tokens, not abstract families, including explicit section-shape choices (hero shape and footer shape) as first-class outputs alongside palette and voice. It is meant to be loaded by downstream build skills as the single creative artifact for the build.
creative-direction).logo-design, brand-identity).brand-voice).brand-ideation first, then return to this skill).This skill works upstream of build-time skills and parallel to the aesthetic methodology layer:
brand-archetype-system (upstream input). The archetype catalog this skill picks from. The skill names the archetype in the rendered brief; it does not redefine the archetype's defaults.creative-direction (parallel input). The four-axis vocabulary the archetypes reference. If the consumer needs the full axis brief, run creative-direction first; this skill's brief consumes its outputs.brand-identity (downstream). Once the brief is approved, brand-identity turns it into a finished identity system.landing-page-copy, content-and-copy, art-direction (downstream). Every downstream skill that produces aesthetic output references this skill's brief.Direct verbatim copying of an archetype's default palette into a new brand is the failure mode this skill exists to prevent. The brief shifts the archetype's defaults toward the business spec's specifics.
brand-archetype-system that fit the vertical and shape.references/reference-bank/, load the file(s) matching the chosen archetype-and-vertical. Augment with one to two discovered live references if the bank is sparse. Add discovered references back to the bank in the build PR.references/02-brief-template.md. Run output-side divergence. Output the brief plus the references list plus the divergence-check result.Full step-by-step in references/01-process.md. The divergence schema and its three overlap rules are in references/03-divergence-check.md.
A curated bank that grows with each build. Each file under references/reference-bank/ covers one archetype-and-vertical combination and holds three to six live reference URLs, each with a one-line why and optional palette or type observations. The bank ships with three seed combinations covering western-boot maker, heritage barbershop, and balloon-ride experience.
When a build draws from a sparse combination, the build is expected to commit the live references it discovered back to the bank as part of its build PR. The bank gets denser with use.
Each shipped demo carries a signature with seven fields:
slugarchetype (the canonical archetype name from brand-archetype-system)dominant_hue_family (the recognizable colour family, e.g. leather-bone-saddle, dawn-navy-coral, dark-linen-amber)voice_register (e.g. story-forward third-person, atmospheric second-person, fitment-first technical)primary_structural_pattern (e.g. shoppable-grid-product-forward, arc-timeline-hero, fitment-selector-then-rails)hero_shape (e.g. dual-column-image-and-text, wide-photograph-with-band-below, full-bleed-image-with-overlay; canonical vocabulary in references/05-section-shapes-vocabulary.md)footer_shape (e.g. single-line-strip, multi-column-sitemap, type-only-no-links; same vocabulary file)Overlap rules (full set in references/03-divergence-check.md):
A worked example file of seven signatures lives at references/04-shipped-demos-signatures-example.md for illustration; the live signatures file for any consuming project lives in that project, not in this skill.
Archetypes are NAMED for aesthetic families, NOT for brands, following the convention of brand-archetype-system. Live reference sites are cited as exemplars using nominative attribution language: "exemplified by [URL]", "characteristic of", "in the register of". This is descriptive and nominative fair use territory, durable across brand redesigns. A brand that pivots its identity does not invalidate the archetype it once exemplified.
This skill's output depends on data, measurements, or tool results it cannot generate on its own. When a required input, tool, or data source is unavailable or unverifiable, the sanctioned output is the deliverable with the gap stated: what was needed, what was actually obtained or verified, and which parts of the output are affected. Fabricating, estimating, or interpolating a required number to complete the deliverable is never sanctioned. A stated gap is a complete answer.

The bank ships with a README plus three seed archetype-and-vertical files: premium-dtc-maker-western-boots.md, heritage-local-service-barbershop.md, and hospitality-experience-balloon-ride.md. The bank's purpose and extension procedure are documented in its README; the seed files each carry three to four positive live references and one to two negative references for the chosen position. Load the bank file matching the build's archetype-and-vertical at step 3 of the process.

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Creative Brief Selector is instructions for the agent only.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Creative Brief Selector is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 2.5k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 10k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 26k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
