> **Version:** 1.0 · **Date:** 2026-05-05 · **AMD Developer Hackathon 2026**

---

## 1. Brand Essence

### 1.1 Mission Statement

**OncoAgent democratizes clinical oncology intelligence.** We build open-source, privacy-first AI systems that empower primary care physicians with evidence-based oncological triage — grounded in NCCN/ESMO guidelines, running locally on AMD Instinct™ MI300X hardware.

### 1.2 Brand Promise

> *"In medicine, saying 'I don't know' is safer than guessing."*

Every recommendation is traceable. Every source is cited. Every hallucination is blocked. OncoAgent delivers **radical transparency** in clinical AI.

### 1.3 Brand Pillars

| Pillar | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| **Clinical Safety** | Zero-hallucination policy. Anti-fabrication gates at every node. |
| **Radical Transparency** | Every recommendation shows its source, page, and confidence score. |
| **Open Source** | 100% open-source. Life-saving intelligence belongs to humanity. |
| **Privacy First** | Runs locally on AMD MI300X. Zero patient data leaves the hospital. |
| **Evidence-Based** | Grounded exclusively in NCCN/ESMO peer-reviewed clinical guidelines. |

### 1.4 Brand Personality

OncoAgent speaks as a **trusted clinical colleague** — not a chatbot, not a search engine.

- **Authoritative** — Backed by peer-reviewed oncology guidelines
- **Transparent** — Always shows its work and admits uncertainty
- **Precise** — Clinical-grade language, zero ambiguity
- **Humble** — Refuses to answer when evidence is insufficient
- **Compassionate** — Ultimately serves patient outcomes

### 1.5 Tagline Options

| Context | Tagline |
|---------|---------|
| Primary | **"Clinical Intelligence. Open Source. Zero Hallucinations."** |
| Technical | **"SOTA RAG. Local Inference. Evidence-Grounded Oncology."** |
| Emotional | **"Because every hour counts in oncology."** |
| Hackathon | **"Democratizing Oncology with AMD Instinct™"** |

## 2. Visual Identity

### 2.1 Logo Concept

The OncoAgent logo combines three symbolic elements:

1. **DNA Helix** — Represents the biological/oncological domain
2. **Neural Network Nodes** — Represents the multi-agent AI architecture
3. **Shield Outline** — Represents clinical safety and patient protection

**Logo Mark:** A stylized double-helix merging into interconnected neural nodes, enclosed within a subtle shield silhouette.

**Wordmark:** "OncoAgent" set in **Outfit Bold**, with "Onco" in Primary Teal and "Agent" in Midnight Navy.

### 2.2 Logo Usage Rules

| ✅ Do | ❌ Don't |
|-------|----------|
| Use on solid backgrounds (white, navy, dark) | Stretch, rotate, or skew the logo |
| Maintain minimum clear space (1x logo height) | Place on busy photographic backgrounds |
| Use the monochrome version on dark backgrounds | Change the logo colors arbitrarily |
| Scale proportionally | Add drop shadows or effects |

### 2.3 Logo Variants

| Variant | Use Case |
|---------|----------|
| **Full Color** | Primary usage on light backgrounds |
| **Dark Mode** | White wordmark + teal icon on dark backgrounds |
| **Monochrome** | Single-color contexts (printing, embossing) |
| **Icon Only** | Favicons, app icons, social media avatars |

## 5. Voice & Tone

### 5.1 Writing Principles

| Principle | Description | Example |
|-----------|-------------|---------|
| **Clinical Precision** | Use exact medical terminology | ✅ "Stage IIIA NSCLC" · ❌ "Advanced lung cancer" |
| **Transparent Uncertainty** | Explicitly state limitations | ✅ "Insufficient evidence in provided guidelines" |
| **Source Attribution** | Always cite guideline sources | ✅ "Per NCCN NSCLC v2024, Page 42" |
| **Action-Oriented** | Guide next steps clearly | ✅ "Recommend CT scan within 14 days" |
| **Zero Speculation** | Never invent or extrapolate | ❌ "This could potentially be..." |

### 5.2 Tone by Context

| Context | Tone | Example |
|---------|------|---------|
| **Clinical Output** | Authoritative, precise, cited | "Based on NCCN Guidelines (Page 42): First-line therapy for Stage IIIA..." |
| **Safety Rejection** | Firm, protective, transparent | "❌ Rejected: Insufficient evidence in clinical guidelines." |
| **UI Labels** | Clear, concise, bilingual | "Generate Recommendation / Generar Recomendación" |
| **Social Media** | Enthusiastic, technical, authentic | "🧬 Just ingested 70+ clinical guidelines into ChromaDB!" |
| **Documentation** | Professional, structured, thorough | Standard technical documentation voice |
| **Error Messages** | Empathetic, actionable, safe | "Inference system error. No recommendation generated." |

### 5.3 Anti-Hallucination Language

The following phrase is the **canonical safety response** when evidence is insufficient:

> **"Información no concluyente en las guías provistas."**
>
> (English: "Inconclusive information in the provided guidelines.")

This phrase must NEVER be modified or softened. It is the system's safety valve.

## 12. Internationalization (i18n)

### 12.1 Language Strategy

| Layer | Primary Language | Secondary Language |
|-------|-----------------|-------------------|
| **Source Code** | English | — |
| **UI (Default)** | English | Spanish |
| **Documentation** | English (`.md`) | Spanish (`.es.md`) |
| **Social Media** | Spanish | English |
| **Clinical Output** | Spanish | English |

### 12.2 i18n Architecture

All UI strings are stored in a centralized dictionary (see `ui/app.py`):

```python
I18N = {
    "en": { "title": "OncoAgent: Clinical Oncology Decision Support", ... },
    "es": { "title": "OncoAgent: Soporte de Decisión en Oncología Clínica", ... },
}
```

New languages can be added by extending this dictionary without modifying component logic.
