K2F Media Kit — AI-Native Aesthetic Design

Purpose

Teach agents to author content_and_design.md for press- and partner-facing media kits: what belongs in the kit, how to tier information for grab-and-quote use, and aesthetic intent (tone, hierarchy, density)—not K2F packaging or export.

Built on K2F

This skill produces media kits as .K2F packages. Follow the k2f skill for authoring: unpack or init a workspace, edit the semantic tree, pack/verify, and export. K2F keeps agents on meaning (sections, boilerplate, fact blocks, visual intent)—not coordinates—while the engine compiles layout, typography, and theme into export-ready output.

Before you build, install the core skill: npx skills add suzheng/k2f --skill k2f.

When to Use

• Launch or refresh materials for press, podcast hosts, analysts, or creators who need facts and approved copy fast.
• Packaging boilerplate, leadership bios, product snapshots, milestones, and asset inventory in one coherent kit.
• Modular reference journalists can excerpt—not fundraising decks (k2f-pitch-deck), event promos (k2f-flyer), or single-page internal briefs (k2f-one-pager).

Not for: investor narratives or exhaustive brand bibles unless the user wants a hybrid (usage intent only).

Workflow

Step 1. Generate the contentanddesign.md

Blueprint semantic content and design intent in labeled blocks reporters can scan and excerpt independently.

Sub-steps

1. Kit lock — Primary user (beat reporter, creator, partner comms), kit job (launch coverage, ongoing press room, product drop, executive profile), channel (downloadable PDF, emailed ZIP companion, on-site sections), and legal posture (what may be named vs anonymized).

1. Kit archetype & section order — Pick one skeleton; do not merge incompatible kits:

• Company / ongoing press: cover identity → quick facts → short + long boilerplate → key messages (3–5) → products/services snapshot → milestones → leadership (short bios) → customers/partners (permitted only) → news highlights → awards → asset manifest → media contact.
• Product launch: product hook → problem context (factual) → what’s new → availability/pricing (public only) → specs at outcome level → launch quotes (user-supplied) → boilerplate → assets → contact.
• Founder / executive: headline role → bio (neutral third person) → expertise themes → select quotes → company tie-in → headshot intent → contact via comms.
• Creator pack: brand one-liner → do/don’t talking points → deliverable expectations → disclosure rules → links/handles → asset list → contact.

1. Information layers — Glance: name, descriptor, founded, HQ, URL, category. Grab-and-quote: 50- and 150-word boilerplate, key messages, approved quotes. Reference: fact table, timelines, bios, product cards. Operational: asset manifest, usage notes, media email—never buried under marketing prose.

1. Content tiers — Approved copy (paste-ready), Verified facts (sourced or TBD), Pointer (link to press page, DAM, or “request via…”). Park website essays, roadmap fiction, and internal metrics in omit or appendix pointer—not inline.

1. Honesty & permissions — No invented revenue, customers, logos, awards, or quotes. Missing inputs → TBD, Not provided, or NEEDS USER INPUT. Logo/customer blocks only when user confirmed; else category-only or omit.

1. Cut pass — Remove pitch-deck slides as paragraphs, duplicate bios, feature catalogs, and multiple CTAs. One primary media contact; secondary routes in a single line. Replace adjectives with one verifiable fact per message.

1. Design intent (no coordinates):

• Tone: editorial-neutral, third-person ready; confident only where proof exists—state one voice pair (e.g., “factual, approachable”).
• Hierarchy: kit title and descriptor dominate; boilerplate and fact tables as distinct bands; bios and news as repeatable modules.
• Density: facts in tables or labeled rows; bios ~80–120 words; key messages as parallel bullets; avoid walls of prose.
• Rhythm: alternate copy blocks with fact strips and visual intent (hero product frame, headshot grid, logo row)—modules should feel extractable.
• Contrast: calm ground; accent on labels and pull quotes; legible roles for boilerplate.

Rules & constraints

• Every section must be excerpt-friendly—no “see above” dependencies across modules.
• Boilerplate: two lengths (short/long) with identical facts; spelling of legal name and product names locked.
• Quotes: attributed, dated if possible, user-supplied only.
• Asset manifest: list type, description, and availability (attached / URL / on request)—no fake download links.
• Launch kits: separate news angle (what changed) from evergreen company boilerplate.

Common failure modes

Quality checklist

• [ ] Lock: audience, kit job, archetype, channel, permissions.
• [ ] Section order matches archetype; modules stand alone.
• [ ] Glance / grab-and-quote / reference / operational layers present.
• [ ] Short + long boilerplate consistent; key messages parallel.
• [ ] Facts traceable or TBD; quotes and logos permitted only.
• [ ] Asset manifest complete or explicitly incomplete.
• [ ] Design intent: tone, hierarchy, density, rhythm, contrast.
• [ ] One primary media contact; no placeholder URLs.

Step 2. Use the contentanddesign.md and k2f skill to generate a K2F file and export to an appropriate file format.

Follow the k2f skill to build the .K2F package from the blueprint, verify, and export (typically PDF).
