agencykit v1.2.0 — brand voice support and a new proposal skill

AgencyKit v1.2.0 introduces brand voice support and a new proposal skill. Users can now drop a BRAND.md file into their skills or brand folder to apply custom tone, terminology, and forbidden phrases. The new proposal skill generates client-facing proposals with margin estimates and risks, learning from past examples without copying verbatim.

Two weeks after the initial launch, two things shipped based

on community feedback.

The most common feedback: outputs sounded like a generic template,

not like the agency.

The fix: drop a BRAND.md

file into .claude/skills/[skill-name]/ or .claude/brand/

(global fallback). Each skill reads it before

generating and applies your tone, terminology, and forbidden phrases.

The format is simple — agency name, 5 voice example sentences,

a forbidden words list, optional client-specific overrides.

A BRAND.md.example

is in the repo root.

The ninth skill. Handles the 60-minute task most agencies

rewrite every week.

Trigger: "proposal", "write a proposal", "proposta" What it does differently: if you provide past proposals or

scope/outcome example pairs, the skill extracts your tone and

structure patterns and applies them — without copying verbatim.

Treats past proposals as example pairs (scope + outcome) rather

than templates.

Output: client-facing proposal + internal note with margin

estimate and risks. Human-gated by design — it drafts,

you sign off.
