# Social Radar Logo Generation Brief

## Objective

Create a distinctive product sub-brand for **Ironhand Social Radar** that has
clear family resemblance to Ironhand while remaining visually distinct from
the corporate logo.

## Parent references

- `design-references/ironhand-icon.png`
- `design-references/ironhand-logo.png`
- `design-references/ironhand-logo-white.png`

The Ironhand hand symbol must remain respected and recognizable. Do not deform
it or replace the corporate identity.

## Concept

Express detection and opportunity through one restrained addition to the
Ironhand visual language: a radar sweep arc, signal ring, focused target point,
or opening/opportunity gesture. Avoid merely placing a generic radar circle
behind the existing logo.

## Visual requirements

- Ironhand red, graphite/charcoal, and white
- Strong silhouette at 16–32 px
- Vector-friendly geometry with no fragile small detail
- Works on light and dark backgrounds
- Professional in sidebar, login, report, favicon, app, and extension contexts
- Restrained or no gradient
- No third-party social-platform marks
- No cartoon, robot, neon cyberpunk, or stock shield motif

## Exact product text

Primary lockup text: `IRONHAND SOCIAL RADAR`

`IRONHAND` is the parent name. `SOCIAL RADAR` is the product descriptor and may
use a lighter weight or tighter technical styling while remaining legible.

## Required deliverables

- Primary horizontal and stacked lockups
- Icon-only mark
- Light-background, reversed/dark-background, and monochrome versions
- SVG sources where practical
- PNG exports for common app/report use
- Favicon and Manifest V3 icons at 16, 32, 48, and 128 px
- App icon
- Clear-space, minimum-size, color, and rationale guidance

## Generation prompt

```text
Use case: logo-brand
Asset type: professional B2B SaaS product identity and icon system
Primary request: Design an original Ironhand Social Radar product sub-brand
that preserves clear family resemblance to the supplied Ironhand hand symbol
while adding a subtle, integrated signal-detection or opportunity motif.
Input images: Image 1 is the parent icon reference; Images 2 and 3 are the
approved parent wordmark references.
Style/medium: clean vector-friendly identity, strong silhouette, precise
enterprise technology aesthetic
Composition/framing: present icon-only, horizontal, and stacked concepts with
generous clear space
Color palette: Ironhand red, graphite/charcoal, and white
Text (verbatim): "IRONHAND SOCIAL RADAR"
Constraints: respect and do not deform the parent hand symbol; readable at
favicon and browser-extension sizes; works on light and dark backgrounds
Avoid: generic radar circle pasted behind the logo, gradients, tiny details,
cartoon robots, neon cyberpunk, shields, third-party social logos, mockup
backgrounds, watermarks, misspelled text
```

## Implemented result

The delivered vector system uses a simplified Ironhand-family hand silhouette,
two restrained radar arcs, and a single signal point. It is intentionally
asymmetric enough to read as detection/opportunity rather than a generic radar
target. The hand remains the dominant shape, preserving parent-family
recognition.

Implemented deliverables are under `public/branding/` and
`extension/public/icons/`. Central application paths are in
`resources/js/lib/brand.ts`. Usage, clear space, minimum sizes, variants, and
color guidance are documented in `docs/BRANDING_AND_DESIGN_SYSTEM.md`.

Final external/public brand publication requires human Ironhand approval.
