MRGI LINE / WORKFLOW FIELD GUIDE
Release a revised brand package
Keep vector marks, palette values, and downstream assets tied to the same approved release.
01 / FROM INPUT TO HANDOFF
Follow the decisions.
This walkthrough describes the intended MRGI product behavior. The browser demo illustrates a small part of the workflow; it does not run the complete application.
- 01
Define the package
- Start with
- An original mark and palette.
- Work through
- Group the approved symbols and named tokens.
- Result
- A draft brand version.
- 02
Prepare the outputs
- Start with
- The draft and channel requirements.
- Work through
- Generate the needed variants and inspect target-specific output.
- Result
- A candidate export set.
- 03
Review the release
- Start with
- Tokens, marks, and preflight findings.
- Work through
- Resolve inconsistencies and approve the package as a unit.
- Result
- A reviewed brand version.
- 04
Offer the update
- Start with
- Consumers in Pixel, Layout, and Interface.
- Work through
- Describe the change and let downstream owners accept it deliberately.
- Result
- Traceable brand adoption.
02 / INPUTS & INTERCHANGE
What travels with the work.
These are foundation formats and intended handoff contracts. Support and fidelity must be confirmed for each released build.
| Artifact | Role | Review consideration |
|---|---|---|
| SVG | Scalable vector assets | Fonts, filters, and external references require controlled handling. |
| PDF / print outputs | Production artwork | Color and print requirements must be checked for the target workflow. |
| Token JSON | Shared design values | Token naming and schema compatibility need a defined contract. |
A deliberate cross-app boundary
Publish an approved brand package to Pixel, Layout, and Interface for consistent reuse.
The intended handoff should identify the selected resource, its version, the destination, and the user’s authorization. A linked application should not inherit unrestricted file access.

Know what this example establishes.
- Palette changes do not establish legal rights in a mark.
- Print and web preflight are different acceptance processes.
- Brand package synchronization remains proposed product behavior.
Development status
The source foundation is imported. Brand package approvals and the connected release interface are planned.
Before a production release
Validate real-file behavior and platform support, implement the stated authorization and review rules, and document the tested acceptance scope. The interactive website is a product demonstration, not a release candidate for the application.
04 / PRODUCT QUESTIONS
The details that matter.
Are design tokens enough for a brand system?
No. Usage rules, typography, imagery, and editorial choices also matter. Tokens are one versionable part of the package.
Will an update replace existing campaign assets?
The intended workflow offers an update for review. Consumers can remain pinned to the approved version used by an existing campaign.
Open-source foundation
Paths, artboards, symbols, SVG/PDF, and scriptable exports exist in VectorCraft. Versioned brand release governance is the proposed MRGI focus. Read the credits and foundation mapping.
