# Atlas Map Strategy

Create complete 16:9 Japanese slide images in the Atlas Map Strategy style. Turn business lessons into finished slide boards whose cards, arrows, labels, and diagrams stay readable as thumbnails while keeping this family's distinct look.

Generate each slide as one finished PNG with image_gen: background, Japanese text, diagrams, objects, icons, texture, and layout together. Do not rebuild the design with PPTX shapes, HTML/CSS, SVG, or local text overlays.

If this skill arrives as a ZIP, extract it first and read this file plus all required references. Do not infer the style from the ZIP name or cover alone.

## Required Reading

Read these before generating:

1. references/input-workflow.md
2. references/visual-system.md
3. references/slide-recipes.md
4. references/quality-bar.md

Inspect assets/reference-slides/style-reference.png, samples/contact_sheet.png, and all ten sample slides. Treat the ten samples as authoritative finished examples. Preserve the whole family's aged parchment ground with crackled vellum texture, foxing and a thin double-rule border; dusty blue coastlines and sea shading at the edges, olive terrain washes, fine brown contour lines, engraved pine symbols and a sailing-ship vignette; large engraved compass rose and a bordered inset map panel with a red summit flag and dashed route; heavy letterpressed deep navy Japanese gothic headline with a terracotta emphasis word; navy banner ribbon subline with notched pointed ends and arrow tips; parchment map plates with thin dark rules, rounded corners, circled numbers and contour washes; muted flat engravings with map-pin markers; terracotta dashed route arrows; three cartouche label plaques in navy, forest green and terracotta with double-line borders and a compass-rose star; hachures, latitude ticks, scale bar, X marks and rust flags; long navy cartouche bottom banner with notched ends and a terracotta phrase. Do not copy only the cover layout.

## Non-Negotiable Workflow

1. Parse numbered user text into an ordered slide plan.
2. Preserve meaning while compressing long copy into one headline, one subline, exactly three short labels, and one bottom takeaway.
3. Choose one role from references/slide-recipes.md.
4. Generate exactly one complete 16:9 Japanese slide image at a time with image_gen.
5. Save as slide_01.png, slide_02.png, and so on.
6. Compare each result with the bundled contact sheet and quality bar.
7. Regenerate unreadable Japanese, invented details, logo-like marks, weak hierarchy, or generic template output.
8. If PPTX or PDF is requested, make PNG slide art first and place each PNG full-bleed into the delivery file.

## Design DNA

Style: Atlas Map Strategy — antique atlas plate rendered as a Japanese business slide. Design DNA: aged parchment ground with a crackled vellum texture, faint foxing and a printed-plate feel, the whole slide enclosed by a thin double-rule border; dusty blue coastlines and open sea shading push in from the left and right edges, olive-green terrain washes and fine brown contour lines ripple across the middle, and tiny engraved pine-tree symbols and a small sailing-ship vignette sit in the margins; a large brown compass rose is engraved at the top-left corner and a bordered inset map panel at the top-right shows a mountain, a red summit flag, an X mark and a dashed route; the headline is a heavy deep navy Japanese gothic with a slightly letterpressed impression and a lightly weathered edge, the emphasis word in terracotta; the subline sits inside a navy banner ribbon with notched pointed ends and small arrow tips, in warm white; the main body is ONE dominant diagram of parchment-tinted map plates with thin dark rules and softly rounded corners, each carrying a circled number in navy, olive or rust and a faint contour wash behind its artwork; illustrations inside are muted flat engravings dotted with small map-pin markers; connectors are terracotta dashed route arrows that curve like a plotted expedition path; exactly three label plaques are navy, forest green and terracotta cartouches with a double-line border, a small compass-rose star at the left end and warm white text; decoration stays cartographic: contour lines, hachures, latitude tick rules, a scale bar, an X-marks-the-spot and small rust flags; the bottom is a long navy cartouche banner with notched ends holding warm white text with one phrase in terracotta, a compass-rose medallion at one end and a small rust flag at the other; overall scholarly, weathered, expeditionary; engraved-map vector illustration, no photo, no realistic people.

Make every metaphor cartographic: blockers become impassable hachured terrain halting a plotted route; change becomes an uncharted blank region resurveyed into two mapped territories; steps become three map plates joined by dashed route arrows; improvement becomes a circular trade route returning to home port; checks become legend rows with inked survey marks; roadmaps become an expedition path over contour ridges through three camps to a summit; priority becomes a 2x2 territory grid with one richly shaded and flagged; daily use becomes a voyage log of three dated waypoints; recap becomes one grand scrollwork cartouche holding route chips. Do not reduce the family to three equal cards with the right colors.

## Prompt Contract

Use this structure for every image:

Create exactly one complete 16:9 Japanese slide image.
Style: Atlas Map Strategy.
Design DNA: aged parchment ground with crackled vellum texture and a thin double-rule border; dusty blue coastlines, olive terrain washes and fine brown contour lines with engraved pine symbols and a ship vignette; a large engraved compass rose and a bordered inset map panel with a red summit flag; heavy letterpressed deep navy Japanese gothic headline with a terracotta emphasis word; navy banner ribbon subline with notched pointed ends; one dominant diagram of parchment map plates with thin dark rules, circled numbers and contour washes; muted flat engravings with map-pin markers; terracotta dashed route arrows; exactly three cartouche label plaques in navy, forest green and terracotta with double-line borders and a compass-rose star; hachures, latitude ticks, a scale bar, X marks and rust flags; long navy cartouche bottom banner with notched ends and one terracotta phrase
Required Japanese text:
- Headline: [short headline]
- Subline: [short subline]
- Labels: [exactly 3 short labels]
- Bottom takeaway: [one concise sentence]
Slide role: [cover / problem / before-after / three-step / loop / checklist / roadmap / matrix / case / recap]
Composition: follow the matching recipe and inspect samples/contact_sheet.png. Use one dominant role-specific metaphor from references/slide-recipes.md instead of a generic card grid.
Generate background, text, diagrams, objects, texture, and layout together.
Avoid extra microcopy, page numbers, fake logos, QR codes, URLs, dates, prices, watermarks, photorealistic people, equal card grids, and generic PowerPoint/Canva/Gamma output.

## Output Defaults

- One 16:9 PNG per slide, Japanese text only, thumbnail-readable.
- File names slide_01.png through slide_NN.png in content order.
- Keep the family look consistent across every slide in a deck.
