Workflow
1. Gather Book Information
Ask the user for:
- Book genre and type: e.g., "Urban fantasy series, Book 3 of 5" or "Standalone romance novel"
- Target content focus: series showcase, author background, cover art, book sample, or combination
- Example: "Show all books in my trilogy + author bio"
- Available assets: book covers, author photos, character art, etc.
- Example: "I have cover images for all 5 books and a professional author headshot"
- Book's ASIN: if already published (e.g., "B08XXXXXX")
- Existing book description or key selling points
- Example: "Epic battles, found family themes, LGBTQ+ representation"
2. Select Appropriate Modules
Based on content focus, recommend modules from references/modules.md:
For series books: Comparison Chart, Technical Specifications
For author focus: Single Image & Sidebar, Single Left Image
For visual impact: Image & Text Overlay, Image Header With Text
For content preview: Three Images and Text, Product Description Text
Maximum 5 modules per layout. Preview desktop and mobile display.
