SKILL: Clothing Detail Loss

Version: 1.0 | Hermes Agent Failure Pattern Library

DESCRIPTION

Mastery of preventing and correcting the degradation of clothing texture, material specificity, and garment detail in AI-generated imagery. Models often render clothing as smooth, generic fabric blobs rather than specific materials with weave, drape, hardware, and construction detail. This skill provides material specificity requirements and vocabulary for precise garment rendering.

CORE RULES

• Name specific materials, not generic "fabric": denim twill, supple leather, raw silk, merino wool
• Include material behavior: leather creases, silk shimmers, wool has fiber texture
• Specify construction details: "topstitched seams", "brass buttons", "zip fly with metal teeth"
• Hardware requires explicit naming: "silver metal zip" not just "zipper"
• Dark clothing loses detail fastest — add texture descriptors for dark garments specifically
• For video: establish detailed clothing in anchor frame; chain consistency across subsequent frames
• Use material metaphors: "butter-soft suede" beats "soft fabric" for AI comprehension
