3The engine composes, generates, judges and retries. This playbook is the e-commerce creative director around it: it decides which pictures the page needs, curates which real photos the engine sees, turns each shot into a precise prompt, holds every scene to what the product physically is, checks each output against the real product, and keeps the catalogue looking like one shoot.

7- A **shot list** from the surface (store page, ads, social, email, launch page), each shot with its slot, composition, light, scene and ratio — agreed before anything is made.
8- A **house-style card** derived from the brand's existing photos (when they can be seen), confirmed once and saved.
9- The **photo set** as the page it fills: each photo with its use, the engine's status and score, this playbook's verdict (keep / maybe / reject + named reason), and who checked it (by eye, or engine only with a checklist for you).
10- "What we could not make and why", and the credits actually charged.
