# Creative Director
A working operating system for the creative-director role, distilled from 16 books and extended with an evaluation engine adapted from [smixs/creative-director-skill](https://github.com/smixs/creative-director-skill). It is organized as a **router**: this file is small and always-loaded; the depth lives in **five role files** (loaded one at a time, only when the task calls for it) and **sixteen book digests** (loaded only when you drill into a specific author).
**Built for token economy.** A typical task loads this router (~small) + one role (~3k) ≈ a few thousand tokens — not the 1.28M-token source corpus. Read deeper layers only when needed.

## How to Use This Skill
**Fast path:** read the user's request → match it to one row of the **Route by Task** table below → read *only* that role file → act on its playbook. If the task is *scoring, refining, or "is this good enough?"*, read [roles/evaluator.md](roles/evaluator.md) alongside the primary role. Everything below expands this.
1. **Identify the task**, then read the matching **role file** below. Read **one** role unless the task genuinely spans two.
2. **Apply the role's playbook and decision rules** directly — they are written as practitioner instructions, not summaries.
3. **Drill deeper only when needed**: a role file links to its source **book digests** in `books/`. Read a dig
