taste

# Taste Markus's saved images and videos carry a vision-model description each. Search them for the brief, look at the actual media, then design from what you saw. ```bash just -f ~/Projects/personal/justfile taste "<brief>" -k 12 just -f ~/Projects/personal/justfile taste "<brief>" --kind interface,diagram-dataviz --json ``` Kinds: `art`, `interface`, `graphic-design`, `diagram-dataviz`, `3d-render`, `architecture-interior`, `object-product`, `photography`. Results print the kind, the path, and the description. For a video the path is a 2x2 frame grid in the order 10/35/60/85% of the clip; `--json` also gives the original video `path`. ## How to use it 1. Run two or three searches that phrase the brief differently: the artifact ("analytics dashboard"), the quality ("dense tabular data, monospace"), and the feeling or medium ("print-like, muted palette"). 2. Read the images of the best 6-10 hits with the Read tool. The description locates; the image decides. Drop hits that only matched on words. 3. Name what you take from each one you use: "grid and type scale from X, palette from Y". Borrow moves, never copy a whole piece. 4. Say which brief the references serve. Taste here depends on the job, so a reference that is right for a poster may be wrong for a settings screen. ## Limits - Descriptions are written by a model (gpt-6-luna) and are unverified. They never record why Markus saved something. - Saved items are all positives: the library knows what he kept, not what he rejects. Do not infer dislikes from absence. - Images open from a local copy (`_system/state/media/taste/files/`), so the 2TBPNY drive need not be mounted. A hit marked `[DEGRADED]` has no copy yet: mount the drive and run `just taste-mirror` in the personal repo. If search reports a missing index, run `media taste index` (see the personal justfile). - New saves get described with `just taste-update --apply` in the personal repo.
