# GPT Image 2 Advisor Prompt Quality Investigation
## Purpose
This investigation tests a workflow premise before any GPT / video-workbench restructuring:
> If Codex uses the `gpt-image-2` skill in Advisor mode and combines it with the accepted GPT director knowledge, the resulting image prompts should be stronger than ordinary GPT direct prompts.
This is a prompt-text quality test only. It does not validate final image quality because no image generation is performed.
## Scope
The test compares two prompt styles across five representative video-workbench scenes:
1. Direct prompt: a normal prompt written without consulting `gpt-image-2` templates.
2. Advisor prompt: a prompt rendered after reading the relevant `gpt-image-2` skill guidance and templates.
The current environment was checked with the skill's mode detector. It returned `B-or-C`, with Garden disabled and no local API key. This investigation forces Mode C / Advisor: save and compare prompts only.

## Directory Decision For Future Work
This investigation uses a root-level `investigations/` directory because it is validating an assumption, not running a production project or automated test suite.
If this premise is accepted, stable workflow documentation should move into `docs/`. Project-specific outputs should remain under `projects/<project-id>/`.
For projects with recurring human character imagery, this investigation supports adding:
```text
projects/<project-id>/makeup-still/
```
Use it only when a project has a character / human identity package. It should hold makeup-still prompts, generated or externally produced makeup-still images, reference-role notes, and acceptance records. Projects without visible characters do not need this folder.
