## 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.

Adapt a recognizable portrait or botanical image into irregular tesserae, arranging tile contours around its key features. Use rough plaster, slight variations in tile height and selective glossy highlights to make the surface feel tangible. Include both tiny material details and a complete bordered composition so the subject remains readable at different scales.

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 photo-realistic mosaic interpretation of a woman wearing a blue-and-yellow headscarf and a pearl earring.

- Color: Muted browns, blacks, and warm skin tones, accented by bright blue, yellow, white, and red.
- Type: Three-dimensional mosaic made from small raised, individually colored tiles.
- Framing: A left-facing head-and-shoulders portrait against a dark background; the woman’s face and headscarf dominate the image.
- Structure: Dense, closely fitted tiles form the portrait, with a pale collar across the lower portion and a large pearl earring beside the face.
