It produces art sources and native Godot resources, not card rules, deck logic, a `Control` or `Container` layout, a `PackedScene`, readable text, or a full composite screen. A request for pixel art is unsupported and must STOP. ## Invocation and Boundaries Accept one request matching the shared Asset Skill request schema in `.godotmaker/asset-runtime/schema/asset-skill-request.schema.json` with `asset_type: "card-kit"`. First run `python tools/asset_ui_card_contract_check.py --kind request`. The family contract owns the Theme recipe/variation, requested frame/state pairs, and named atlas regions. The request decides which card resources are needed; do not add a default front/back, portrait, rarity, or state bundle. This card-game-specific UI Skill can be invoked directly or by an orchestrator through `gm-asset`, but it never edits `ASSETS.md`, tags, stage state, or generated catalogs. It produces and preserves the validated generic result; `/gm-asset` performs the later direct registration. `references` is optional. When it is non-empty, each path is binding input: 1. Verify that it is a readable image before generation. 2. Preserve its `canonical`, `style`, or `screen` role in the prompt and trace. 3. Attach its real image bytes through the declared provider path. 4. STOP if that provider cannot attach every required reference. A prompt-only filename, silent omission, or provider substitution is not reference use. Use only the requested provider (`native`, `codex`, `gemini`, or `openai`). For Codex, call `image_gen` with the real `referenced_image_paths` when any are present. Record provider, model identity when exposed, coding model, reasoning, attachment paths/roles, and provider call identity. For `openai` and `gemini`, use `tools/asset_source_generate.py` with `reference_inputs`; it records hashes and attachment provenance. ## Production Loop ### 1. Plan and generate the visual source Turn the brief into one concrete source plan: frame geometry/orientation, empty portrait or card-art safe zones unless finished art is requested, rarity language, state treatment, and only the requested component list. A reusable card frame is not a flattened example card. Keep card-art and portrait windows empty unless the request declares finished art. Keep generated images free of readable text, numbers, watermarks, and unrelated composite screens. Write the prompt and source plan under `.godotmaker/asset-generation/`, then generate real provider art into its declared raw-source path. Preserve the raw image and provider report; never replace failed generation with procedural or placeholder art. ### 2. Process and curate Prefer the repository's deterministic tools, selecting only those the source needs: - `asset_image_finalize.py` for a single card or portrait frame, including transparency, alpha bounds, aspect checks, and finalization report; - `asset_sheet_process.py` for component sheets, with `autoslice` for separated pieces and `grid` only for intentional equal cells; - `asset_curation_select.py` to choose final components with a curation record; - `asset_atlas_assemble.py` to build a transparent atlas and region metadata. Temporary scripts or other image tools are allowed when diagnosis needs them. The trace must state the reason, command or code, inputs, outputs, changed files, diagnostic, and repair result. Never claim a provider call, attachment, or verification that did not happen. ### 3. Compile native resources Keep final sources under `assets/generated/card-kit//`. Compile one `StyleBoxTexture` for every declared frame/state pair using an explicit source/region, borders, expand margins, and stretch axes, plus explicit content margins. This preserves card corners through nine-slice scaling. Compile those StyleBoxes first, then build the optional Theme at `_theme.tres` when the request declares one. A Theme recipe may bind a generated `StyleBoxTexture` when the caller requests that composition. Compile every named fixed component into a distinct `AtlasTexture`. Front/back images, portrait frames, rarity badges, and overlays are separate only when the request declares them; never infer a missing requested resource from another region. Every runtime output has one required filename, derived from the name it serves: the Theme at `_theme.tres`, and every `StyleBoxTexture` and `AtlasTexture` at `.tres`. One kit fills one directory, so this is what keeps each output separately bindable — two resources sharing a file would hand a worker the wrong Godot type. `check_ui_card_handoff` enforces it at L0, so a drifting filename is a repair, not a late failure. The family validator checks each output's declared path; cross-output path uniqueness is enforced when the manager registers the completed result. ### 4. Diagnose, repair, and recheck Run `standalone_validation.compile_and_validate()` after a candidate set exists. L0 binds the family request/result, L1 checks final sources and metadata, L2 compiles a fresh registry, L3 loads the artifacts in headless Godot, and L4 checks type-specific resource structure. These are production diagnostics, not a one-shot failure gate: inspect the failed diagnostic, repair the source, processing parameters, metadata, recipe, or Godot resource, and re-run the affected checks followed by the final full check. Only STOP for a missing/corrupt required input, unsupported pixel-art request, contradictory request, unavailable declared provider or required reference attachment, or unrecoverable environment/permission failure. A final result is ready only after every applicable L0-L4 check passes. ## Result and Handoff Return the shared generic result with independently usable native runtime resources (`Theme`, `StyleBoxTexture`, and `AtlasTexture`), its `theme_recipe`, `single`, or `region_atlas` sources, previews when produced, and final L0-L4 evidence. Check it with the shared result schema and checker plus this family contract. Before responding, persist the exact request/result pair at `.godotmaker/asset-generation/-request.json` and `.godotmaker/asset-generation/-result.json`, then return the same result JSON directly in the final response. The runner, not a self-reported boolean, records validation. The output is reusable card UI, not pixel-perfect `Control` or `Container` composition. Consumers choose their own layout and may apply only the declared Theme, StyleBoxTexture, or AtlasTexture resources. For `gm-asset`, preserve the successful generic request/result pair. The manager registers the complete `result.outputs` set directly and atomically in `ASSETS.md`; do not create a second handoff object. Private Eval independently assesses consumer use, visual quality, reference consistency, and whether an improvised repair should become a shared tool improvement.
