# An expressive face for an AI assistant

> A minimal line-drawn assistant appears in varied facial configurations, alongside labeled interface states, a node diagram, article and device imagery, and a chat interface. Bright graphic backgrounds contrast with a white closing brand card.

## Before you start

Guidance from Reference, separate from the creator's instructions.

1. Read the reference and inspect the project, installed libraries, and available agent skills before writing code. Reuse suitable tools already present.
2. Prefer the creator-reported libraries and skills when they fit the task. Explain what useful additions help with, and install missing project dependencies or relevant skills from official sources when the environment and the user's existing permissions allow it. Respect the project's package manager and setup rules; do not ask again for routine setup already authorized.
3. Distinguish tools used by the creator from your own recommendations. A listed tool is not automatically required, and an empty tools or requirements list means the setup is unknown, not that nothing is needed.
4. Ask concise questions when missing inputs or choices materially affect the result: paid services, credentials, the user's assets, or a different production approach. Use existing answers and permissions; continue independent work while waiting.
5. If a useful library, skill, or service cannot be installed or used, explain an available alternative and its expected effect on quality, features, or effort. Get the user's choice before a material compromise; otherwise state the fallback and continue. Never silently simplify the result or claim to have used a tool you did not use.

## Recreating this video

This is a visual reference. No original creator prompt is available. The following brief was written by Reference after inspecting the work.

Build an expressive visual vocabulary from a very small set of thick black marks, preserving slight irregularities against clean white shapes. Show the same character at multiple scales, then pair it with a compact state-label stack and a contrasting technical diagram to connect personality with function. For a new subject, replace the facial construction, state names, interface content, and branding while retaining the restrained palette and alternation between isolated graphics and contextual views.

1. Open the live work or source and inspect the frame images below.
2. Adapt its layout, hierarchy, palette, and interaction patterns to the user's own content and brand.
3. Compare the result against the reference. Use your own assets and credit the original creator.

## What it looks like

Written by Reference from the video frames, not by the creator.

A clean presentation of a stylized Notion AI assistant icon alongside several interface and workflow mockups.

- Color: Off-white and light gray backgrounds, black iconography, with bright yellow and blue accent panels.
- Type: Simple sans-serif interface text in black or gray; the recurring assistant mark is a bold, abstract black line drawing.
- Framing: A grid of separate rectangular panels. The assistant icon appears in several panels, alongside small article and chat views, action buttons, and a dark workflow diagram.
- Structure: The collage includes repeated icon illustrations at different scales, a text-heavy article interface, a list of assistant actions, a column of labeled states, a workflow diagram, and a chat interface suggesting a PDF recommendation.
