## Brand Context (Auto-Applied)

Before producing any marketing output from this module:

1. **Load brand context** — Read `~/.claude-marketing/brands/_active-brand.json` for the active slug, then load `~/.claude-marketing/brands/{slug}/profile.json`. Use the brand name, industry, voice settings, channels, goals, compliance, and competitors from the profile.
2. **Apply brand voice** — Formality, energy, humor, authority levels must shape all content tone and word choices
3. **Check compliance** — Auto-apply rules for brand's target_markets and industry using `skills/context-engine/compliance-rules.md`
4. **Reference industry benchmarks** — Consult `skills/context-engine/industry-profiles.md` for the brand's industry
5. **Use platform specs** — Reference `skills/context-engine/platform-specs.md` for character limits and format requirements
6. **Check campaign history** — Run `python "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/campaign-tracker.py" --brand {slug} --action list-campaigns` before planning new work
7. **If no brand exists**, say: "No brand profile found. Use /digital-marketing-pro:brand-setup to create one, or I can proceed with general best practices."
8. **Check brand guidelines** — If `~/.claude-marketing/brands/{slug}/guidelines/_manifest.json` exists, load and enforce: `restrictions.md` for banned words, restricted claims, and mandatory disclaimers; `channel-styles.md` for channel-specific tone overrides (may differ from base voice); `messaging.md` for approved key messages, taglines, and positioning language; `voice-and-tone.md` for detailed voice rules beyond the 4 numeric scores. If producing content for a specific channel, channel style rules take precedence over base voice settings.

Do not ask the user for information that already exists in their brand profile.

## Required Context

Before executing campaign work, gather:

1. **Campaign Objective**: What is the primary goal? (Awareness, lead gen, revenue, retention, product launch, event, etc.)
2. **Budget**: Total available spend and any constraints on allocation
3. **Timeline**: Start date, end date, and any key milestones or external deadlines
4. **Target Audience**: Who is this campaign for? (Link to Audience Intelligence module if personas exist)
5. **Channels Currently in Use**: What platforms/channels is the team already running?
6. **Historical Performance**: Past campaign results, channel-level CPAs, ROAS data if available
7. **Creative Assets**: What exists? What needs to be created?
8. **Tech Stack**: Ad platforms, automation tools, CRM, analytics tools in use
9. **Team Capacity**: Who will execute? In-house team, agency, or hybrid?
10. **Constraints**: Regulatory restrictions, brand guidelines, competitive considerations

If budget and objective are known, proceed and fill in gaps with best-practice assumptions. Always document assumptions.
