Brand & Voice Generator
Generate complete brand configuration files for use with the PPTX Generator and other brand-aware skills. This skill guides users through an interactive process to define their brand identity and writing voice.
What This Creates
| File | Purpose | Used By |
|---|---|---|
brand.json | Colors, fonts, assets | PPTX Generator, Excalidraw |
config.json | Output settings | PPTX Generator |
brand-system.md | Design philosophy & guidelines | All content skills |
tone-of-voice.md | Writing voice & personality | LinkedIn, X, PPTX content |
Output Location
Files are created in:
.claude/skills/pptx-generator/brands/{brand-name}/
Process Overview
- Gather Brand Basics - Name, description, primary use case
- Define Colors - 10 color values for the complete system
- Define Typography - Heading, body, and code fonts
- Define Assets - Logo and icon paths
- Discover Voice - Personality, vocabulary, sentence patterns
- Create Design Philosophy - Core principles and signature elements
- Generate Files - Create all four files with gathered information
- Verify Setup - Confirm files are correctly placed
Step 1: Gather Brand Basics
Ask the user for:
| Field | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Brand name | Folder name (lowercase, no spaces, hyphens OK) | my-brand, acme-corp |
| Display name | Human-readable name | "My Brand", "ACME Corporation" |
| Description | One-line brand description | "AI education content and community" |
| Primary use | Main content type | presentations, social media, documentation |
Suggested question:
"Let's set up your brand. What's your brand name? (This will be the folder name - use lowercase with hyphens, like 'my-brand')"
Step 2: Define Colors
Gather 10 color values. Colors should be hex codes WITHOUT the # prefix.
Required Colors
| Color | Purpose | Guidance |
|---|---|---|
background | Main slide/page background | Dark themes: near-black. Light themes: white/off-white |
background_alt | Alternate background for variety | Slightly different shade of background |
text | Primary text color | High contrast against background |
text_secondary | Muted/secondary text | Slightly lower contrast than primary |
accent | Primary accent (CTAs, highlights) | Your signature brand color |
accent_secondary | Secondary accent | Complement to primary accent |
accent_tertiary | Third accent (optional variety) | Another complement, or same as secondary |
code_bg | Code block background | Darker than main background |
card_bg | Card/surface background | Between background and text |
card_bg_alt | Alternate card background | Slight variation of card_bg |
Color Discovery Questions
If user doesn't have a full color system, guide them:
- "What's your signature brand color? (This becomes your primary accent)"
- "Do you prefer a dark theme (dark background, light text) or light theme?"
- "Do you have secondary colors, or should I suggest complements?"
Color Suggestions by Theme
For dark themes, suggest:
background: 0a0a0a to 1a1a2e range
text: f5f5f5 to ffffff range
card_bg: 1a1a1a to 2d2d44 range
For light themes, suggest:
background: ffffff to f8f9fa range
text: 1a1a1a to 333333 range
card_bg: f0f0f0 to e8e8e8 range
Step 3: Define Typography
Gather 3 font names:
| Font | Purpose | Common Choices |
|---|---|---|
heading | Headlines, titles, buttons | Inter, Montserrat, Poppins, Roboto |
body | Body text, descriptions | Inter, Open Sans, Lato, Source Sans Pro |
code | Code blocks, terminal | JetBrains Mono, Fira Code, Monaco, Consolas |
Question:
"What fonts should we use? I need a heading font, body font, and code/monospace font. Common choices are Inter for both heading and body, and JetBrains Mono for code."
Default if unsure:
- Heading: Inter
- Body: Inter
- Code: JetBrains Mono
Step 4: Define Assets
Gather asset paths (relative to brand folder):
| Asset | Description | Common |
|---|---|---|
logo | Primary logo file | assets/logo.png |
logo_dark | Logo variant for dark backgrounds (optional) | null or assets/logo-dark.png |
icon | Square icon (optional) | null or assets/icon.png |
Question:
"Do you have a logo file? If so, you'll need to copy it to the brand folder. What's the filename? (e.g., 'logo.png')"
If they have a logo, set path to assets/logo.png (they'll copy it there).
If no logo, set to null.
Step 5: Discover Voice
This is the most important step for content quality. Guide the user through voice discovery.
Voice Discovery Questions
Ask these questions to understand their voice:
-
Personality in 3 words:
"Describe your brand's personality in exactly 3 words. Examples: 'Bold, Technical, Approachable' or 'Calm, Authoritative, Helpful'"
-
Voice influences:
"Who are 2-3 creators, brands, or people whose communication style you admire? This helps me understand the vibe."
-
Vocabulary patterns:
"What words or phrases do you use often? Any pet phrases, intensifiers you like ('super', 'incredibly'), or words you naturally reach for?"
-
What to avoid:
"What kind of tone or phrases do you want to AVOID? (e.g., corporate speak, hype language, overly casual)"
-
Sentence style:
"Do you prefer: Short punchy sentences, longer flowing explanations, or a mix? Do you use contractions ('don't', 'can't') casually?"
-
Teaching style (if applicable):
"When explaining something complex, how do you approach it? Show process/iterations? Use analogies? Lead with practical then theory?"
Voice Templates Reference
Read references/voice-templates.md for example voice configurations to show the user.
Step 6: Create Design Philosophy
Based on gathered information, help define:
Core Principles (3-4)
Ask:
"What are 3-4 design principles that guide your visual choices? For example: 'Clean over flashy', 'Technical but approachable', 'Dark mode by default'"
Signature Elements
Ask:
"Do you have any signature visual elements? Examples: Glass card effects, specific shadow styles, gradient patterns, geometric shapes, glow effects"
If unsure, suggest based on their colors and theme.
Step 7: Generate Files
Create all four files using the gathered information.
brand.json
{
"name": "{display_name}",
"description": "{description}",
"colors": {
"background": "{background}",
"background_alt": "{background_alt}",
"text": "{text}",
"text_secondary": "{text_secondary}",
"accent": "{accent}",
"accent_secondary": "{accent_secondary}",
"accent_tertiary": "{accent_tertiary}",
"code_bg": "{code_bg}",
"card_bg": "{card_bg}",
"card_bg_alt": "{card_bg_alt}"
},
"fonts": {
"heading": "{heading_font}",
"body": "{body_font}",
"code": "{code_font}"
},
"assets": {
"logo": "{logo_path}",
"logo_dark": {logo_dark_path},
"icon": {icon_path}
}
}
config.json
{
"output": {
"directory": "output/{brand_name}",
"naming": "{name}-{date}",
"keep_parts": false
},
"generation": {
"slides_per_batch": 5,
"auto_combine": true,
"open_after_generate": false
},
"defaults": {
"slide_width_inches": 13.333,
"slide_height_inches": 7.5
}
}
tone-of-voice.md
Use the template in references/tone-template.md and fill with gathered voice information.
brand-system.md
Use the template in references/brand-template.md and fill with gathered design information.
Step 8: Verify Setup
After generating files:
-
List created files:
Glob: .claude/skills/pptx-generator/brands/{brand-name}/* -
Remind about assets:
"Don't forget to copy your logo file to
.claude/skills/pptx-generator/brands/{brand-name}/assets/" -
Suggest test:
"Try generating a simple presentation with: 'Create a 3-slide presentation for {brand-name} about [topic]'"
Quick Mode
If user just wants to get started quickly:
- Ask only for: brand name, signature color, and light/dark preference
- Generate sensible defaults for everything else
- Create minimal but functional files
- Tell them they can refine later
Quick mode trigger phrases:
- "quick setup"
- "just the basics"
- "minimal brand"
- "get started fast"
Updating Existing Brand
If a brand already exists:
- Read existing files first
- Ask what to update:
- Colors only?
- Voice only?
- Everything?
- Preserve unchanged sections
- Show diff of changes before writing

Popular marketing & seo skills
reddit-automation
flowkit-labs/skills
Find Reddit threads where people are genuinely asking for what you offer, then draft short, genuinely helpful replies — disclosing your affiliation honestly and naming your product only when it truly answers the question. Two moves: discovery — scan the right subreddits for real needs (recommendation asks, expressed pain, competitor mentions) and rank the few threads where you can actually help; drafting — write from real experience, respect each community's self-promo rules, and keep a human in the loop to review and post. This markets on Reddit the honest way: contribute value, disclose who you are, never astroturf. Distilled from the playbook behind doany.ai's Reddit agent. Triggers on "find reddit opportunities", "reddit marketing", "reddit automation", "reply on reddit for my product", "reddit community engagement", "reddit lead gen", or any ask to turn Reddit threads into genuine, disclosed marketing replies.
