name: monotype-fonts
description: Process uploaded brand guidelines or typed font specifications with the Monotype Fonts connector, extract font names only from document text or reliable metadata, match fonts in Monotype inventory, show production status, and then guide the user to either reuse an existing library asset or create a new Web Project, Digital Ad, or FontSet. Use when a user uploads a brand guideline/style guide/brand book/type spec or asks to apply its fonts to Monotype library assets. Also use when the user asks for a site, page, ad, or other web output for a named brand or project without supplying a guideline or font names - look up an existing Web Project or Digital Ad by that name and use its fonts and CSS. Always require explicit user consent immediately before creating any new asset.

# Monotype Fonts

## Core rule

Use only the **Monotype Fonts** connector for font matching, production status, existing-asset lookup, asset creation, and any CDN/CSS output.

Support exactly these user-facing asset types:

- **Web Project** (`WebProject`)
- **Digital Ad** (`DigitalAd`)
- **FontSet** (`FontSet`; aliases: font list, fontlist, font set, fontset, list, font collection)

Never create a new asset without explicit user consent in the immediately preceding user turn.

Font identity must come from written font names or reliable file metadata, never from visual similarity.

## Brand-guideline entry flow

When a user uploads a supported brand guideline, style guide, brand book, or type specification, first extract and resolve the fonts as described below. Then present the asset action choice before any asset operation unless the user's prompt already unambiguously chooses both the action and asset type.

When action or type is not explicit, present these two paths compactly:

1. **Use an existing asset** — choose **Web Project**, **Digital Ad**, or **FontSet**, then provide the existing asset name.
2. **Create a new asset** — choose **Web Project**, **Digital Ad**, or **FontSet**. Collect or suggest the asset name, check for duplicates, show the creation summary, and ask for explicit consent before creation.

If the user's prompt already says, for example, “use existing Web Project Acme Site” or “create a new FontSet called Acme Brand Fonts,” do not ask them to choose again. Continue with the selected path while still enforcing every required approval below.

Do not infer **Digital Ad** unless the user explicitly selects or requests it. If the user chooses an action but not an asset type, ask them to select one of the three types rather than silently defaulting.

## Project-name fallback flow

Use this flow when the request needs brand fonts (for example a website, landing page, HTML ad, or other web output) but **no brand guideline is uploaded and no font names are written in the prompt**. Check the conversation's uploads first; an upload that is not a guideline for this brand does not count.

1. **Derive the lookup name.** Take the project, brand, campaign, or site name from the user's prompt (for example `VEXTOR` from "a launch page for VEXTOR"). If the prompt contains no usable name, ask for the guideline, the font names, or the existing project name in one question and stop.
2. **Look up existing assets.** Call `get_web_projects_by_name` with that name and `assetTypes` set to `["WebProject", "DigitalAd"]`, leaving `accessTypes` unset so owner and shared assets are both covered. Do not search FontSets in this flow: a FontSet has no CSS and cannot serve web output.
3. **Resolve the match.**
   - **One exact match** (ignoring case and punctuation) -> use it without asking.
   - **Several plausible matches** -> list only names, asset type, and created date (newest first), and ask the user to choose one. Never pick among them silently, and never merge fonts from several projects.
   - **No match** -> say no Web Project or Digital Ad with that name was found, show any close names the connector returned, and ask
