What it does

This skill guides AI agents to produce or retouch appetizing food and beverage visuals for commercial, editorial, ecommerce, social, recipe, menu, packaging, or product-ad contexts while preventing false claims about the product. It instructs handling truthfulness, claims discipline, styling, prompt translation, platform variants, accessibility, rights, alcohol, and QA.

How it works

• It requires separating facts from client claims and production heuristics, classifying client-provided facts, how the client wants to communicate claims, and techniques that improve appetite appeal without changing the product truth.
• It defines a first-pass intake checklist before prompting or producing assets, covering deliverable type, precise product truth, risk surface (allergens, health claims, etc.), required variants, and rights/provenance.
• It enforces a compliance framework for advertising truthfulness, FDA-related labeling facts, food safety cues, and alcohol guardrails. It instructs escalation for any copy, graphics, captions, or alt text that states or implies regulated or health-related claims.
• It provides detailed guidance for food styling and appetite appeal (color, texture, composition, scale, plating, freshness, beverage cues).
• It prescribes how to translate briefs into generation prompts, breaking prompts into factual locks, appetite targets, scene, camera/lighting, motion beats for video, constraints, and output variants. It advocates using reference images and approved product photography for exact packaging or logos, and warns against unsupported claims or misrepresentation.

When to use it

Use when producing food or beverage visuals for commercial, editorial, ecommerce, social, recipe, menu, packaging, or product-ad contexts. Escalate for approval when copy or visuals imply regulated or health-related claims.

What it can touch

• Tools: claude-code, codex, copilot, cursor
• It specifies that prompts and asset creation should reflect exact product truths and approved references; it emphasizes avoiding invented nutrition, allergen, or health claims and escalating for regulatory review as needed.

Caveats

• The guidance notes that it is not legal, nutrition, medical, or regulatory advice. It requires client/regulatory approval for any potential health or regulated claims and flags for counsel or brand approvals as appropriate.
• It advises against generating nutrition panels, allergen statements, or other legal disclosures from memory and directs use of current artwork or clearly marked mockups when exact art is unavailable.
• Alcohol-related content requires adherence to industry guardrails and escalation to alcohol compliance reviewers for paid media or influencer work.
• It stresses adherence to FTC advertising truthfulness and FDA labeling considerations, with explicit references and verification timestamps.
