description: Read the Spillmark brief for a connected brand: a test that is starting or running, the latest result, a recommendation waiting for a yes, and stock that is overdue, due soon, or overstocked.

# Read the brief

This skill reads one connected brand. Nothing is sent, and nothing is changed.

1. The Spillmark MCP server must be connected with that brand's key (`Authorization: Bearer sm_…`).
2. Call `read_the_brief` with no arguments. Do not send a brand name.
3. Repeat `test`, `result`, and `waiting` as the tool returns them.
4. List stock from `stock.overdue`, then `stock.orderSoon`, then `stock.overstock`, using each line's `text`. If a list is empty, say that bucket is clear.
5. Give the seller the `logUrl`.
6. If the tool says brand tools are off, or that a key is required, say that and stop. Do not invent a brief.
