## Exact production prompt

```text
Use case: text-localization. Revise a complete custom Magic card without changing its artwork.
Image 1 is approved EDIT TARGET. Image 2 Niv-Mizzet Parun GRN is conventional modern blue-red legendary-creature FRAME reference only; no borrowed data, watermark, credits or art.
Add the standalone keyword Flash as the first rules paragraph. Preserve every other specified field, all three Cyclopes working on one thunderbolt, their hands/tools, quiet forge background, full border, gold frame and blue-red legendary crown with no Nyx.
Exact final card:
Name: Brontes, Steropes, and Arges
Mana cost: {1}{U}{R} — gray 1, blue droplet, red flame.
Type: Legendary Creature — Cyclops
Rules:
Flash
The first instant or sorcery spell you cast each turn costs {2} less to cast.
Whenever you cast your first instant or sorcery spell each turn, create a Treasure token.
Power/toughness: 3/4
Rarity rare; small gold lightning mark.
Footer: Z05 • CLASH • CUSTOM • PLAYTEST
Use paragraph breaks, upright keyword, proper inline gray 2 mana glyph. Fit all rules legibly by modest reflow, preserve card proportions. No flavor/reminders, no artist credit, no added rules. Full upright flat digital card with all borders visible.
```

## Observed visual QA

Full card reread: added Flash above exact first-instant-or-sorcery discount and Treasure trigger, including each turn in both clauses and inline 2 mana glyph. 1UR, Legendary Creature — Cyclops, 3/4, rare gold lightning, full footer and UR crown without Nyx correct. Three Cyclopes, thunderbolt and anvil artwork preserved.
