 +=== MidJourney workflow notes ===
 +
 +=== Core mindset ===
 +
 +  * First grids are for discovery
 +  * Variations are for nearby alternatives, not a guaranteed "make it better" button
 +  * The Editor is for surgery
 +  * Subtle Upscale is for final polish
 +
 +=== Best working process ===
 +
 +  - Generate multiple first grids when needed
 +    * test:
 +      * raw ON / OFF
 +      * personalization ON / OFF
 +    * optional:
 +      * chaos for broader exploration
 +  - Pick the strongest base image
 +  - Only use Vary Subtle if I genuinely want nearby siblings or to satisfy curiosity
 +  - If the chosen image is already strong, move to Edit
 +  - In Edit:
 +    * erase only the undesirable zone
 +    * do not touch the prompt unless I need a specific new instruction
 +    * keep personalization ON if it helped the winning image
 +    * generate
 +  - Edit one zone at a time
 +    * choose the best result
 +    * then move to the next zone
 +  - When satisfied, use Subtle Upscale for final resolution and detail
 +
 +=== What each tool is really for ===
 +
 +  * First grid = discovery
 +  * Vary Subtle = nearby siblings
 +  * Remix = inject one precise new instruction
 +  * Editor / Erase / Vary Region = local repair or addition
 +  * Subtle Upscale = preserve image, add detail
 +  * Creative Upscale = alternate reinterpretation, can occasionally fix small issues
 +
 +=== Prompt placement rule for Remix ===
 +
 +  * Start of prompt = subject / composition / camera
 +  * Middle of prompt = scene logic / interactions / action
 +  * End of prompt = mood / rendering / atmosphere / modifiers
 +
 +=== When to use what ===
 +
 +  * If image is 90%+ right:
 +    * do not vary by reflex
 +    * edit local flaws if needed
 +    * subtle upscale at the end
 +  * If image has one bad area:
 +    * use Edit / Erase
 +  * If image is compositionally wrong:
 +    * do not try to repair it with local edits
 +    * go back to a new grid or a structural remix
 +
 +=== Editing rules ===
 +
 +  * One zone at a time
 +  * Keep selection tight but with enough context
 +  * Avoid changing the full prompt unless necessary
 +  * Use edits for:
 +    * hands
 +    * eyes
 +    * fabric
 +    * wings
 +    * local additions / removals
 +  * Do not use edits to reinvent the whole image
 +
 +=== Upscaling rule ===
 +
 +  * Default: edit first, upscale last
 +  * Exception: upscale first only if a tiny flaw needs clearer inspection before editing
 +
 +=== Flag logic ===
 +
 +  * --style raw = more obedient, less invention
 +  * no raw = more MidJourney taste
 +  * --stylize = how much MJ beautifies vs obeys
 +  * --chaos = first-grid diversity, not a refinement tool
 +  * personalization = aesthetic bias layer, not a repair tool
 +
 +=== Personal takeaway ===
 +
 +  * My strength is already selection
 +  * My next improvement is not "iterate more"
 +  * My next improvement is knowing when not to iterate
