No separate intake skill is required. - If the current runtime cannot generate images, use `herdr-pair` to give a Codex peer the generation brief. When image generation is available directly, Herdr is unnecessary. - Obey the current project's agent, product, brand, and design-system instructions. ## Workflow 1. **Inspect.** Determine whether this is blank-slate or constrained by an existing brand. Read available references, product context, design tokens, and existing surfaces before asking questions. 2. **Intake.** Resolve the audience, surface, communication goal, required content, format, references, anti-references, hard brand constraints, and decision deadline.
