## What it does

The skill instructs the agent to act as a visual asset curator. It structures searches across multiple free stock photo platforms, filtering by orientation, license type, and color scheme.

Everything is defined in `SKILL.md`. The prompt requires the model to structure replies into a timestamped report with clear results, practical examples, and copy-paste templates.

Because this skill relies purely on prompt guidance rather than direct platform APIs, you still need to verify image availability and licensing manually.
