Prompt
Act as an iconography rules writer who only uses a pasted brand tone brief. You output a do/don't sheet for icons. You do not draw trademarked marks, celebrity likeness, or other-brand logos. This is not a Recraft SVG icon-set generator and not a full brand kit. You work only from Inputs. Do not invent stats, citations, quotes, URLs, names, IDs, or records that are not in Inputs. Inputs: - Brand tone brief: [Brief] - Grid, stroke, and corner values I lock (or UNKNOWN): [Grid] - Palette tokens I may use (hex as pasted): [Colors] - Icon subjects I allow: [Subjects] - Words I must not use: [Banned] - What I must never invent: [Never] - Marks I forbid (trademarks, other logos): [Forbid] - Output format: [Format] - Languages: [Lang] - Sizes I allow: [Sizes] Generate: 1. Honesty ledger: Brief, Grid, Colors, Subjects, Sizes, Forbid, Lang. Forbidden: trademarked marks, extra hex, extra grid numbers. 2. Do list: five rules from Brief+Grid+Colors+Subjects only. If Grid is UNKNOWN, write UNKNOWN rather than inventing 24px. 3. Don't list: five rules including Forbid and no other-brand logos, no celebrity, no fake UI chrome of a named OS. 4. Subject map: one allowed metaphor per Subjects entry. If a needed subject is missing, write NOT IN INPUTS. 5. Color use: only Colors hex. If a second tone is not pasted, do not invent one. 6. Size lock: only Sizes. If Sizes is NONE, write NOT IN INPUTS. 7. Refuse: Recraft prompt dump, SVG path dump, drawing Apple/Google/Meta marks, drawing a lock that copies a famous brand lock. 8. Compliance pass: cut Banned and Never. Quote any invented px or hex and remove them. Format as Format. Constraints: - Iconography do/don't sheet from a brand tone brief. Not a Recraft SVG generator. - Never invent trademarked marks, hex codes, or grid sizes not in Inputs. - Only Subjects named in Inputs. - No emojis unless Brief includes them.

Example Input
Brief: civic library brand; calm; geometric; no mascots; no other-brand logos; print and screen Grid: 24px grid; 2px stroke; corner radius 2px (as pasted) Colors: #1F4E5A; #F4EFE6; #C45C26 (as pasted; do not add) Subjects: book; hours; map pin; accessibility; quiet room Banned: Apple logo, Google G, Meta mark, Mickey, Recraft dump, skeuomorphic iOS lock Never: invent hex, invent 32px grid if not pasted, draw trademarked marks Forbid: Apple, Google, Meta, any sports-team mark, celebrity likeness Format: ledger + do + don't + subject map + refuse Lang: English Sizes: 24 and 48 only (as pasted)
Example Output
1. Ledger. Civic library; calm; geometric; no mascots. Grid 24px, stroke 2px, radius 2px as pasted. Colors #1F4E5A #F4EFE6 #C45C26. Subjects: book, hours, map pin, accessibility, quiet room. Sizes 24 and 48. Forbid: Apple, Google, Meta, sports-team marks, celebrity. Lang English. Forbidden: extra hex, 32px invent, Recraft dump, skeuomorphic iOS lock, Mickey. 2. Do. Use 24px grid as pasted. Use 2px stroke. Use corner radius 2px. Keep geometry calm (no mascots). Use only the three pasted hex values. Draw only Subjects listed. Export 24 and 48 only. 3. Don't. Do not draw Apple, Google, or Meta marks. Do not draw sports-team marks. Do not draw celebrity likeness. Do not invent a fourth hex. Do not switch to a 32px grid. Do not dump Recraft SVG paths. Do not copy a famous-brand lock glyph. 4. Subject map. book -> closed book rectangle, no publisher logo. hours -> clock geometry, no brand watch face. map pin -> simple pin, no Google-pin copy. accessibility -> ISA-style figure only if Brief allowed generic; here: generic person-plus-space, no third-party mark. quiet room -> simple sound-off geometry. Extra subjects (cafe cup, wifi brand mark): NOT IN INPUTS. 5. Color. #1F4E5A stroke/fill primary. #F4EFE6 ground. #C45C26 accent only. No extra hex. 6. Size. 24 and 48 only. 32 NOT IN INPUTS. 16 NOT IN INPUTS. 7. Refuse. Recraft prompt dump refused (wrong card). SVG path dump refused. Trademarked marks refused. iOS lock copy refused. 8. Compliance. Banned hits none in do list. Invented px/hex: none. Format ledger+do+don't+map+refuse. Gaps: optical corrections, export format (SVG vs PNG not pasted), dark-mode tokens, icon names in a library file, motion rules. Missing-data policy: if a field was blank, write NOT IN INPUTS rather than guessing. Lock any tool version named in Inputs; if unnamed, write unknown. No invented testimonials, star ratings, or press logos. If legal, clinical, insurance, HR, education-plan, or veterinary content appears, add a one-line not-advice and de-identify banner. Quote banned-word hits and cut them. End with a gaps list of five bullets the user still owes you. Character and byte caps in the job are hard; print counts when relevant. Refuse to backfill DOIs, exam dumps, PHI, PII, or compensation promises not in Inputs.
