+name: brand
+description: The Carlos Arias website brand system (carlosarias.co) — a sumi-e identity: ink on washi paper with a single vermillion seal. Use whenever designing, building, restyling, or reviewing any page, component, or image for this site, so the work stays on-brand. Covers the palette, the seal rule (how sparingly red may appear), the type scale, radii, spacing, imagery direction, and the do/don't list. Source of truth: brand/BRAND.md and the tokens in app/src/styles.css.
+---
+
+# Skill: Carlos Arias brand system (sumi-e)
+
+You are designing for **carlosarias.co** — the portfolio of an Agentic AI & Automation
+Engineer whose audience is engineers, CTOs, and technical hiring managers. Technical
+credibility comes first; projects lead, marketing is supporting context.
+
+The identity is **sumi-e**: traditional Japanese ink painting — white paper, black sumi ink,
+and one red *hanko* seal pressed at the end. That is the whole system. Adjacent to wabi-sabi
+(negative space, asymmetry, restraint, natural imperfection) but permits exactly one
+saturated color.
+
+**Always match the existing design system first.** Read `app/src/styles.css` (the `--ca-*`
+tokens and the `.ca-*` component classes) and the nearby components before inventing anything.
+Reuse existing `.ca-*` classes rather than adding new styles. Full guide: `brand/BRAND.md`.
+
+## The one rule that matters most — the seal rule
+
+**Red is a seal, not a color. Target 1–2% coverage per screen.** This single discipline is
+what makes the site read as Japanese minimalism instead of a generic startup page with a red
+button. Same hex, entirely different design language.
+
+Red (`--ca-seal`, `#D0342C` light / `#E8564A` dark) is permitted **only** on:
+- the seal mark / logo lozenge (the 印),
+- **one** inline link or emphasis per view,
+- **one** active state (current nav item, selected tag),
+- hairline accents at small scale.
+
+Red is **never** allowed on:
+- primary buttons — these are **ink** (`--ca-ink`), never red,
+- headlines or body copy,
+- filled bands, blocks, or backgrounds,
+- more than one element competing for attention in the same view.
+
+If a screen has two things fighting to be the red thing, one of them is wrong. When in doubt,
+make it ink and leave the seal for the single most important accent.
+
+## Palette (use the tokens, never raw hex)
+
+| Token | Light | Dark | Use |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `--ca-paper` | `#F6F5F2` | `#121317` | Page ground — **never pure `#FFF`** |
+| `--ca-paper-2` | `#EFEEEA` | `#191A1F` | Raised surface |
+| `--ca-rule` | `#DFDDD7` | `#2A2C33` | Hairlines, borders |
+| `--ca-ink-4` | `#9A9CA3` | `#5E606A` | Disabled, faint meta |
+| `--ca-ink-3` | `#6E7078` | `#8B8D95` | Secondary text |
+| `--ca-ink-2` | `#3D3F47` | `#C2C1BD` | Body text |
+| `--ca-ink` | `#14151A` | `#EDECE8` | Headings, primary, buttons |
+| `--ca-seal` | `#D0342C` | `#E8564A` | The seal — see the rule above |
+
+Two choices to preserve: the ground is **washi-toned, never pure white**; the near-black is
+**blue-black, not neutral grey** (sumi ink has a cool cast, and that bias runs through the
+whole grey ramp). Dark mode uses a more luminous seal on purpose — it is not a naive inversion.
+
+## Type
+
+1.333 modular scale, wide intervals. Serif for display/headings, sans for body, mono for
+eyebrows/meta. Eyebrows/meta are uppercase with `0.12em` tracking. Running text caps at
+`62ch`; headings get `text-wrap: balance`. Use the existing `--ca-s1`…`--ca-s8` scale tokens
+and the `.ca-*` type classes — don't introduce new sizes.
+
+## Form & layout
+
+- **Near-square radius (2px).** No rounded cards.
+- **Hairline rules** for separation. No drop shadows, no elevation.
+- **Asymmetric, off-grid** placement. Not centered-everything.
+- Density: the homepage runs sparse and airy; project index and detail pages are intentionally
+  denser (that's where evaluators dig in). Restraint at the front, substance behind it.
+
+## Imagery
+
+Generated imagery is fine for texture, environment, and project visuals — **never for
+portraits** (a detectably synthetic photo of the person is an unrecoverable credibility hit on
+an AI-expertise site). Portraits are real photography, graded to the palette. On-palette
+generation fragment:
+
+> washi-paper ground, sumi ink blacks, single muted vermillion accent (#D0342C), natural
+> directional light, soft film grain, generous negative space, asymmetric off-center
+> composition, low saturation, matte finish, no gloss
+
+Explicitly avoid (these read as "AI imagery" and destroy the identity): blue/cyan/purple
+glowing circuitry or neural-network motifs, holographic UI, saturated gradients, lens flares,
+bokeh bursts, glossy chrome tech-product rendering, high-key studio lighting, symmetrical
+centered compositions, or more than one accent color.
+
+## Do / don't
+
+| Do | Don't |
+|---|---|
+| Ink primary buttons | Red primary buttons |
+| One red element per view | Red as a general accent |
+| Washi ground `#F6F5F2` | Pure white `#FFFFFF` |
+| Near-square radius (2px) | Rounded cards |
+| Asymmetric, off-grid placement | Centered everything |
+| Hairline rules for separation | Drop shadows and elevation |
+| Real photography for portraits | Generated portraits |
+| Reuse existing `.ca-*` classes/tokens | Inventing new one-off styles |
