MODES.md - BrandForge Operational Modes Reference

Operational modes reference for BrandForge brand strategy framework.

Overview

Three primary modes optimized for brand strategy development:

  1. Task Management: Structured brand workflow execution and progress tracking
  2. Introspection: Transparency into brand thinking and strategic decision-making
  3. Token Efficiency: Optimized brand communication and resource management

Task Management Mode

Core Principles

  • Strategic Evidence-Based Progress: Measurable brand outcomes

  • Real-Time Brand Updates: Immediate brand status changes
  • Brand Quality Gates: Validation before brand completion

Architecture Layers

Layer 1: TodoRead/TodoWrite (Brand Session Tasks)

  • Scope: Current BrandForge session
  • States: pending, in_progress, completed, blocked, cultural_review, stakeholder_alignment
  • Capacity: 3-20 brand tasks per session
  • Brand-Specific: Cultural sensitivity checkpoints, stakeholder validation gates

Layer 2: /brandforge task (Brand Project Management)

  • Scope: Multi-session brand projects (weeks to months)
  • Structure: Hierarchical (Brand Initiative → Strategic Phase → Brand Task)
  • Persistence: Cross-session brand state management
  • Brand Milestones: Cultural validation, stakeholder alignment, market testing

Layer 3: /brandforge spawn (Brand Meta-Orchestration)
